721  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you avoid some games because of racism? on: April 14, 2024, 11:52:50 AM
Especially on sports betting we see some racism happening and this happened in most of the league that are popular of which so many persons bet on. It bothers me to ask, that imagine you placed a bet and somehow you have 80% assurance that it would come out successful. And on the process of waiting for the game to end there was some racism manipulation in the game which made you lost the game. It could be football or other sports cause its mostly found in sports.

Next time would you choose to not bet on a particular game because you feel the members of the VAR, or the referee are racist, and you are sure that there would be some manipulation?
Maybe if my only pursuit is to have fun playing gambling, I won't pay attention to that, and I don't care about that. For others, they might be really spoiled; who would want that?
And that kind of attitude is not really good, honestly speaking.

Who would want the referee to favor someone, as if the result is that someone took sides or was favored, so the other one lost? That's what I see.
No one will place their bet if the situation and condition is like that. They wants to see the match is fair and lead by the referee so they will satisfy when they watch the match. We can place the bet without thinks about the referee or else because we wants to have fun and enjoy the match.

Besides that, we will not knows if the match is fair or not and we can just place the bets. That's only if we wants to place the bet but many people doesn't wants to see if the match is not fair. As long as someone doesn't thinks much about the fairness or the referee favor someone or else, that will not be a problem. Every gambler will knows what they should do and where they can place the bets so they will do something if they knows that the referee favor someone.

He needs to free up his mind to allow that new sets of strategy or remove the tension that push him to be more aggressive if you have that kind of mindset then you can avoid losing more, though some are thinking about changing games and try to use other venue to make some bets trying to work things out and if they've got some winning streaks they will continue using that game instead of going back and play again with the game that they've lost before.

More on your own decision making and how  luck may show and back you up with your chosen venue to continue your betting.
That's why he must take a break for some time, especially if he already played gambling and losing his money. Without take a break, his emotion can increase and makes him lose control. That's already happens to many people and makes them lose their money without having a chance to recover the money. Yes, someone can be aggresive because he wants to gets his money back but that doesn't easy as gambling will not gives him a big chance. If he use the other casino, that will not guarantee him can win but he will have a chance to gets more losses as he will thinks to recover his lose from the other casinos.

We must make our own decision after playing gambling for some time and if we see that we only gets lose many times, even losing streak, that's the reason for us to gets out from gambling. We don't have to comes back to the casino because that can makes us becomes an excessive gambler.

The thing is, there's a main problem that cannot be easily solved unless the gambler itself shows any initiative to solve this problem. You have already pointed it out, and it is for the gambler to be open-minded to undergo the changes or start realizing the effects of his gambling addiction.

Once this first step has been achieved, they will surely start to listen and think more positively. Your words stating that they should stop will finally reach them and can make them encouraging words to successfully overcome their addiction.
Gambler needs to have initiative to solves their problem so they don't have to gets deeper in gambling and makes them hard to gets out. But many people doesn't realizes this and still playing gambling whenever they have their free time because they wants to win the gambling games. Gamblers must have open-minded to change their gambling activity and realizes that gambling is just a part of entertainment. They must reduce their addiction by asking for helps from the other people so they can start to used their free time to do the other activity.

When they can listen to other people suggestion, they will see that they already made a mistakes and they must fix it before it's too late to do. They must have power to stops themselves from playing gambling, especially if they already lose big money.

Of course, the role of parents must be to be responsible and always supervise what their children do, if this fails there is chance that mistakes will occur in the future and worse, it can create problems involving the whole family.
Gambling is problem that often occurs, many teenagers and children are starting to get to know and even take part in gambling activities and basically they are gamblers who only rely on money given by their parents.
As time goes by they become addicted and do much worse things to make money to fulfill their gambling desires, there are also many cases where these young gamblers dare to take out loans from their friends to gamble.
In the end, the family has to bear what the child does and this is clearly problem that is quite worrying.

Development of the times which involves increasingly sophisticated technology does have negative impact if it is used incorrectly or deviantly.
Every parent must really supervise and direct their children to do what they should do and avoid what they should avoid in order to minimize the occurrence of mistakes that have bad consequences in the future.
The role of parents must be there to helps their children from bad things that can happens to them, especially in this era when the technology grows faster than before. Parents needs to have ability to supervise their children and besides them so they can watch their children grow without doing something that can harm their lives. If parents fail doing their job to watch their children, their children can gets a wrong way because they can do something with their friends and we can see many children use their time with their friends. Many of them drag into a wrong thing without they realize but after they knows that's what they do is a bad thing, they are too late to gets out. Many of them playing gambling with their friends without their parents knows and that makes their lives changed.

We must use technology better and not using it for something that can harm us or our family. The technology is like a knife which have two face, for a good or bad thing and that depends on us how we will used it. If we can use it for a good thing, that will not harm us and vice versa. Parents must always take care their children because that's the main job parents for their children. Parents must minimize the mistakes that their children can do and avoids something that can harm their lives.

Removing geographic and legal boundaries happens to be one of the importance of online gambling. It doesn't matter the kind gambling laws or restrictions set in a particular jurisdiction, people can still access gambling sites and carry out their gambling activities online without having to face any physical penalties. Online casinos has indeed made gambling experience a lot more easier for gamblers who consider walking to land based casinos as tiring, as it provides them with a wide range of gambling experiences in the comfort of their home, which is quite an amazing innovation in the gambling sector.
Yeah, geographic and legal boundaries will not be a problem for many gamblers that comes from different countries. They can used online casino to playing gambling, even if they comes from a country that prohibits gambling. Law in a country can prohibits people but they can still visiting online gambling without boundaries. That's why online gambling can grows fast in this era, especially in the Covid-19 and online gambling becomes one of their way to entertain them while they can't go to anywhere. Online casino gives a new experience to gamblers because they can playing gambling at their home and they don't have to meet many people in a room, especially when they can't go to anywhere when Covid-19 attack. Yeah, walking to land based or drive to the offline casino needs time while they don't have much time to spent. So the presence of the online gambling helps gamblers to continue their gambling activity.
726  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling between the past and nowadays on: April 13, 2024, 06:57:30 PM
societal perception towards gambling has indeed evolved over the years as we know it. Asides the availability of online gambling platforms being the reason for this, I believe that another factor that plays an important role towards ensuring this to be a possibility can also be traced to the portrayal of gambling activities in the popular media. Online and Offline casinos now use popular celebrities and influencers to advertise, especially people we think highly of, if you had such a negative perspective about gambling activities and then you see an influencer that has made a great deal of influence on you over the years running a public ad for a casino, I bet your perspective about gambling would drastically change. This has been one of the effective techniques used by casinos to normalize gambling over the years.
The availability of online gambling change people minds that they don't have to go to offline casino in this era because they can find easily online gambling using their gadgets. They can playing gambling from anywhere or everywhere they wants and not limits their access even if they comes from the country that prohibits gambling. They can still playing gambling from their home using their smartphone without anyone knows and secretly so they can enjoy their free time by playing gambling. But every advantage behind of online gambling also gives a disadvantage to them so they must be careful using online gambling to playing gambling. They can gets addicted to gambling immediately, especially if they don't have self control because they can playing gambling easily in everywhere. That's the disadvantage of the online gambling and when they becomes addicted to gambling while no one knows about their problems, their addictions can becomes bigger and that will ruin their lives if they don't gets helps from people arounds them.
727  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Illegal Books on: April 13, 2024, 06:30:07 PM
There are a plethora of illegal books, many run by college students, young adults and even teens. How secure are these websites??
What I am really asking is how easy (possible) would it be to hack the site and change a users balance without being detected??
Illegal books? Maybe the illegal meaning is just from a country that prohibits gambling. Sports betting site is not illegal, especially in a country that allows gambling. We can suggest you to use the casino that have reputation so you don't have to worry if they will cheat or scam you. Hack the site? If the casino site have a high security level, that site will not gets hack easily because their security teams will always monitor and protect the site from the hackers. So there's no way to hack the users balance unless there's a bug or hole in the site that the hackers can enter to the sites and takes the users balance. But we should aware that nothing is 100% secure so there still a chance that hacker can enter to the site and do something for their own purposes. But as long as the security teams can works to protect their site, that things will not happens. The casino will make sure their members will be safe and comfort while playing gambling in their site.
728  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The madness of gambling addicts. on: April 13, 2024, 05:50:14 PM
I just hope that over time people become aware of these types of things, many like the casino and the casino is for fun, to win some money if you're lucky, but there may be times when people get very insistent because everything varies. , because that's where the problems begin because they always want to win and they always want more, so if the person does not have money available only for the casino, they will start using money that does not belong nor should it belong just to quench their thirst for gambling, that is very bad , because there comes a time when the person forgets the value of money and begins to spend and spend until they have no control, then in view of that a complete addiction can be generated, and that is what causes madness in people because they want taking money from anywhere, selling, or doing things they shouldn't.
If they're lucky, they can wins but most people will not wins easily as they will loses their money in a short time. But that doesn't stops them from playing gambling in the next days because they will comes back to gambling and playing different gambling games. Yes, people becomes very insistent, especially if they lose their money. They will trying to recovers their lost and gets their money back no matter if they spend more money but that will not easy for them because they can lose all of their money without winning back their money. So that's why people must thinks twice to spends much money to playing gambling because the risk of losing their money will be bigger. If they can thinks about how much they can lose, they will not trying to use big money instead just use enough money to playing gambling. When they lose, they will not becomes angry or sad because they already knows that playing gambling using more money can gives them big lose.

It is very difficult to prevent young children from gambling in Burdwan. That's because the smartphone is going very easily in their hands, which is becoming very difficult to control. If kids are not controlled from smart phones they are getting involved in gambling at a very young age and very well become addicted. Due to which children should play a controlling role in the use of smartphones.
In my opinion it isn't. If you should agree with me , logically a kid is some who isn't up to the age of 18 and therefore can't be trusted to make proper decisions for themselves and therefore need guidance. Some people will even argue that an individual up to 18 years of age is still a kid. The entire idea is mainly the ability to make mature decisions. Therefore parents are the ones responsible for kids who gamble at a very early age this is because they should be the ones guiding them and if they fail to do so the kids may fall into wrong decision making based on their sorrounding environment and peers.
Parents is the person who responsible with their children so they must always supervise their children when they do something. When their children use their smartphone, their parents should already reminds them not to use that smartphone for doing something that can harm them or makes them in a trouble. But we knows that in this era, children are familiar using smartphone so they can search anything they wants without telling to their parents. That's dangerous for them because they can visits the sites that doesn't suits them and that's why many children knows about gambling in their ages. Parents must always besides them and guide them to use their smartphone so their children can knows that they can use internet for a good thing and not doing a bad thing.

It is useless to give an advice to someone who wouldn't even listen, it is just a waste of time honestly there is nothing we could do with those kind of people.
The first thing that they need is to be willing to help their own before asking to be help by others, let's put OP's friend as an example, OP already gave out an advice on how to manage his funds, but he just ignored it and goes back on gambling every salary that he would get.
Whenever we give out advice we should also consider if the one who is receiving it are really willing to change, or they just need someone to talk to or have a conversation.
Yes, they will not listen us because they thinks they are right continue playing gambling without thinks about their losing before. We can't do anything with them as they can't open their minds to accept what other people suggestion. They should have open minded to accept other people so they can see that they really have a problem and they can trying to solve their problem before it's too late. They must lets other people helps them to solve their addiction before they lose too big that they can't accept and can makes them desperate and ruin their lives. That's why we must trying to prevents ourselves from playing gambling excessively so we don't gets addicted to gambling because when we playing gambling excessively, our minds will trying to tells us to continue playing gambling.
731  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is there any fun in losing while gambling on: April 13, 2024, 04:33:32 PM
gambling should use money that we are prepared to lose, because in gambling the possibility of someone losing is quite high so a gambler needs to be prepared for that. if they gamble using money that they themselves are not prepared to lose, then in the end they will gamble with the thought that gambling can give them the opportunity to earn more money and when these expectations do not match reality then they will very easily get stressed and take decisions that could lead to bankruptcy.
If people can thinks like that, they will not trying to spends much money to playing gambling instead just used enough money to playing gambling. They realizes that playing gambling using much money will caused them lose a big portions of their money or lose all of their money. So they will not trying to deposits much money and only used some money to enjoy the gambling games. That will be better if they used the money that they can afford because they don't have to feels too sad if they lose although there's no joy when they lose. They must avoids bankruptcy by always limiting their money when they playing gambling so they don't have to face a big problems in gambling which already happens to many people. We must limits our gambling activity when we realizes that there's no fun when we lose.
732  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do some people hide to gamble on: April 13, 2024, 03:57:08 PM
In every country there are certain rules for gambling and in many countries it is illegal to gamble in public places. Even if it is legal to gamble in public places, in my opinion gambling should never take place on the streets or in public places. This is because gambling may not be enjoyable for everyone. When you gamble on the street, children can see it and they can emulate it. This is the beginning of an irreversible path for them. Gambling is a powerful game that has the potential to influence good or bad people. Because it is very tempting for everyone to make money quickly. People also don't like it to be obvious when they gamble.
That's happens in many countries, whether that country allows gambling or prohibits gambling. People hide themselves playing gambling because they don't wants to break their law or rules or they don't wants to shows to public that they are playing gambling. But they can be lucky today because with the internet available in many places, they don't have to shows that they playing gambling because they can playing gambling secretly without anyone knows. Although their country prohibits gambling, they can still playing gambling from their home using their devices. But children will be the target of gambling if their parents can't supervise them well, especially if their children socialize with wrong friends and they can gets into the traps from doing the wrong things.

When it comes to gambling or cryptocurrency, we always want to protect the privacy of personal information to keep ourselves safe. But in some cases, there is a need to inform others of these things. It is not bad if I share my personal information with someone I know or trusted. People's lives are not always at the same level. Accidents can happen at any time. If a gambler shares his gambling activities with his life partner or if he gives access to it, it definitely works effectively for unwanted events. I have seen a freelancer who had kept all his wealth in his online account but suddenly he lost his physical ability due to his brain stroke he lost all his wealth. In some such cases it is important to share all the information with a trusted partner.
Sharing about our gambling activity to other people is a prevention that we can do so we can asks for helps from them to comes to us. They will knows what they needs to do so they can helps us immediately when we almost lose self control. But we must search for the right person that can really helps us so we don't waste our time for waiting for the helps from them. Yes, accidents can happen at any time so we must knows what we should do and with sharing to other people, at least we have a way to asks for helps.

They will comes to us when we asks them so we can tells what happens to them and not waiting for too long to wait for the helps. They will helps us with the right methods and they can asks us to go to rehabilitation if that's necessary.
734  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Gambling A Hobby? on: April 13, 2024, 03:01:01 PM
"Is Gambling A Hobby?" is the wrong question, the question should be "Can Gambling Be A Hobby?" and the answer is yes, it surely can. A hobby is something that you do often as you like doing it, and it can be anything. A hobby can be a sport, reading, writing, watching TV, playing video games, or anything in general including gambling because you do it either everyday or very often and you like doing that thing.

If you are gambling for fun, you have gambling as a hobby, and if you gamble because you are addicted to it or you do it to earn money from it, then maybe it isn't a hobby but it's something you are forcing yourself to do not because you like doing it but because you want to get something out of it.
If the question is what you said, then I also agree that gambling can be a hobby. But to used gambling as a hobby is not easy because you must allocates some money continously as playing gambling as a hobby is different than playing gambling as a fun. As a hobby, you used gambling more often than the other people do while if you used gambling as a fun, you only used gambling for have fun and don't have any intention to wins the games and only playing gambling in your spare time.

That's why we can only used gambling as a fun things to avoids any bad things that can happens while we playing gambling. We don't needs to use more money to playing gambling because we knows that can makes us lose much money. We must prevent the big lose that can happens and only using enough money to playing gambling. Maybe some people can use big money to gambling because they have a big money in their pocket but we as a small gambler doesn't needs to follows them.
735  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Stopping the curse of losing streak? on: April 13, 2024, 02:30:44 PM
Having a break after the losing streak are always advisable because chasing losses can’t guarantee anything and also for your peace of mind, better not continue especially when you are already too emotional. If you are having a bad day, you can always come back but first you have to set your limit and budget to avoid further losses and always have your strategy, chasing anything is not ok its always good to have your target and stop loss amount.
It will be good for a gambler to take a break after losing because he needs to reduce his tension after getting lose. He also needs to break for a while to take a deep breath and thinks about what he needs to do after his losses. He can't continue playing gambling, especially if he lose some money and only take a rest that can helps him to thinks about the next moves. He doesn't needs to recover his lose because that will be difficult to do so he must stops his gambling activity, especially if he already losing streak.

Yes, limiting the budget is the solution to avoids the big lose so that is the way that every gambler must do. Before he playing gambling, he must have a plan about how much money he will use. Otherwise, he will lose much money without he realizes.

Maybe in the future, offline casinos will not survive, especially if people doesn't wants to feel excitement when playing gambling with other people. But as long as people wants to compete with the other people, offline casinos will still exist
It is true that there will be more of land-based casinos shutdown their operation due to the lack of players.
But land-based casinos will still exist, especially in big cities, cruise ships, entertainment venues etc.
But as long as people wants to competes with the other people, offline casinos will still exist as you said. This will not stops people to continue playing gambling in the land-based casino. People will still playing gambling on the land-based casinos even if online casino grows for more because those people can found excitement while they playing gambling. That's because people needs something that can makes them meets other people and talks with them while they are playing gambling. This will helps them to remember how exciting playing gambling together with them and that will be their good memories when they are old.

Only people who are too crazy want to mess with casinos because of losses experienced in gambling.
I don't know how much money is lost because of gambling, but the typical person who likes to mess is the one who has always been an addict at first.

It is no longer a problem with the casino, but it will be a matter handled by the police.
Incidents like this always happen to Traditional casinos or offline casinos.
But in online casinos, of course, events like this rarely happen, unless the gambler messes up the online gambling system and detects who is doing it.
When someone gets their emotion higher, they will not thinks much about that. They will doing mess with casinos to vent his frustration. We don't knows how much money that they already lost but that's enough for them doing something that can harms other people and ruins the casinos machine. That's why we must prevents the bad things that can happens to us by limiting our gambling activity and we can enjoy gambling as an entertainment.

Casino will calls police to clear the mess on their casino and will makes those who playing with the casino in the jail. That will be a big problem for those and will remain that things so they will not repeat it again in the future on the other casinos. In the online casinos, we will not see this thing happens but we may hear about the hacking of the casinos.

That's what AI supposed to be, it only give you a statistic and help you to choose instead of to be used as final decision.

Human needs to be the one who make the final decision by evaluating the statistic, this is why some people say AI help them for their work, not like majority of people who complain AI should be stopped or AI will take over the world.

But I doubt if bookies didn't aware with AI, they should be the one who use AI and it will make the odds become more accurate with the risk to reward ratios.
But from the statistic that we gets from AI can helps us to determine which team that we can select. We can also analyze more deeper from the statistic if we wants to know more from the information. Yes, I agree that we must decides by ourselves and not just depends on the other sources to decides. The statistic that we gets from AI can gives us a way to learn the analyze so we can improve our skills better.

Bookies will not lets that happens and will do something. They don't wants to see their business ruins because of the AI. They will use AI to prevents that so they can still gets profits from the gamblers. This will becomes a fight between the gamblers and the casinos and the gamblers will trying hard to find the best AI that can helps them to win.

<...>
Well, I don't know what it's like to be raised in some other countries, but I think that now things are very similar in terms of childcare. I know that in Europe children are super valuable, just like in the USA, they are actually the future. So I know that when parents do something wrong, like keeping an eye on them, not supervising them, they risk even losing them and handing the children over to the government, so this is something very delicate, I believe that parents should not allow their children to be looking for something else on the internet, if you see that they are in casinos then it is a very serious offense, in fact where I live, that is also punishable by law, because such cases can be very decisive with them, they can cause psychological damage and that It is very delicate.
Because the risk of losing their children makes parents must always supervising their children. Many children lost their lives because of parents lacks to supervise them, especially if their children can't stay close to their parents and choose to lived or socialize with their friends. They can't gets the right information from their parents because their children believe their friends and not their parents. It's a wrong if their children lost their belief to their parents and follows what their friends said because that can makes them in a wrong way. Parents must introspect what's going on with them and their children so they can start to fixed what's needed. If their children can follow what their parents suggestion, they will not chooses the wrong way because their parents will always besides them.

The meaning of gambling or me is just to have fun in my free time and nothing else. I don't feel the potential havoc from the gambling because I always trying to limits myself from using big money to playing gambling. I knows that if I used much money, that can makes me gets many problems and I don't wants that happens to me. If they can have fun in gambling, they will knows that the risk of losing money will be bigger so they must have self control to playing gambling. Otherwise, they will lose much money and the worst is they can becomes addicted to gambling which many people already gets it.

It needs educations for people not to gets deeper in gambling so they can prevents themselves and makes limitations to playing gambling. That will helps them can enjoy gambling as an entertainment.
