7201  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When did you start gambling? (Because of BCT Promotion?) on: June 30, 2017, 03:31:41 PM
When did you start gambling online (and offline if you do not mind sharing)? Is it because of the awesome Games and Rounds forum at Bitcointalk?

Do you only start gambling after you use Bitcoin (or any other cryptocurrency) because you feel that you cannot be tracked?
I start gambling BTC when my sister is a millionaire already because of bitcoin.When my daughter become a member and she got a salary,She decides for me to be a member.So that I begin to search bitcoin and be a member.So I start gambling BTC because its the only way I know how to become a millionaire so easy as bitcoiners proven.
Wow you are already talking lots of Millionaire words here pal. Just want to know how your sister did become millionaire? because of btc possession or on gambling and I would like to ask about that member thing? I don't know on what you are talking seems like a kind of job and the last part you do know already that gambling btc would make you millionaire? It wont really be easy,I bet you.

Hi

I have a problem guys,I am using xapo wallet and I am paying 0.0018 btc as fees each transaction,that's 4.5$ per transaction this is a huge amount how can I fight this guys?
We cant fight this thing since its already being implemented on Xapo on this fee not only on it but on most wallets online which we can really say that the fees are way up too high. If you don't like high fees you can always set lower amount of fees which but expect the confirmation would be more longer than expected that's would be the consequence.
7203  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you use analysis when play gambling? on: June 30, 2017, 12:51:54 PM
Dice game is purely luck. It is obvious that the house edge is there. Sports betting and poker that you can analyze the events, team,  player situation and many more.
Gambling games do have some categories which we can able to identify which are on each side, talking about dice games,slots and others it does really need luck for you to win unlike on skill-based gambling which you would really need analysis for you to increase chances on winnings which you cant do on dice games. It depends on a certain game on when you would use your analysis.
7204  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which Sport is the easiest to wager/win on: June 30, 2017, 11:33:56 AM
Which sports or matches are the easiest to wager on? I know different people like different sports but which one is most or easily profitable than others? Most people stick with what they know only, like me I prefer tennis, world cup football and basketball but which ones you should bet on since they are "easy"

Well as you've said, it varies and depends on which sport you know a lot about. For example, i'm a huge fan of the nba so i can say that it's easier to make profits by betting in nba games than fifa or nfl. Information plays a bignrole with coming up with a good prediction and the more you're interested in a sport, the more information you'll gather
It would really be interesting on putting up bets on certain games that you do have interest because we would really love to see it live and speaking of analysis you would really have something to reference since you do have knowledge on the teams you do know on that kind of sport unlike on no idea on what you are betting that's why it depend on a person which he do like to bet.
7205  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: can gambling give you lessons in life? on: June 29, 2017, 08:22:54 AM
Gambling taught me something that led to these beautiful things, I have to accept.

Hello I was curious on your post. Like what beautiful things? Can you be more specific? Thanks
Maybe he mean on beautiful realizations came from gambling that do make things more even good when he already learned the lesson. Gambling could really give lessons in life but we should not let ourselves suffer first before we can able to learn because we would really see these things along the way on playing gambling.
7206  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is Based on People's Faith on: June 29, 2017, 02:59:24 AM
I was researching and reading a certain Whitepaper from a good token project and this statement really struck my thinking:

"With no government or “anchor” backing up cryptocurrencies, the only foundation that cryptocurrencies have is people’s faith in their value. In other words, solely the market mechanism determines the price of cryptocurrencies. At my time of writing, that faith is worth is over $2000 per Bitcoin and this doesn’t spur from the Bitcoin’s intrinsic value, but from what it allow users to do."

In this case, what will happen when that same trust from Bitcoin holders can be diminished or for heaven's sake be gone...would that be the end of Bitcoin?

This also  lead me to the question: is Bitcoin really a store of value or more of a medium where our trust is plastered on?
The asnwer to your question i quiet simple: If bitcoin would loss its users and the interest on using it would be gone then expect its would really die up and you have some point that its based on peoples faith since government cant possibly do it which means it really relies on its users when it comes on its value. Thinking off on this thing will really stressed you out and better to go with the flow while bitcoin is still hot.
7207  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why I suddenly decided to leave gambling alone. on: June 29, 2017, 02:34:38 AM
I think a lot can relate to the OP, you see when you get hooked up with gambling it gets really addictive and when you get addicted to it you crave to get more or earn more. But the problem with gambling is you have to know that when you spend your money; expect that it might be returned back or it'll be all gone. I too had a problem with gambling before and I got greedy until every time I won more than I bet I tend to bet more and lost it all. I also quit gambling, never visited any site for like a couple of months now.
When we realized that we do lose too much money then we should really think off on the possible consequences ahead when we decide to proceed with our addiction thats why when we got already being addicted to gambling its really hard to control and leaving it would really be  a tough job for us but the direct answer on this is the sensibility of a certain person on quitting job through his actions because if you did this you can actually quit up gambling without the help of others.
7208  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Saving bitcoins on: June 24, 2017, 09:27:03 AM
If I decided to save bitcoins in bank, how will deposit rate be changed compared to dollar or other currencies? Will it have much lower percent?
What you mean about bank? Knowing that there are still no banks that do store bitcoins on which our own wallets serves already as bank on holding up our bitcoin. Its the best thing to store up our coins and be thankful on that rather than letting centralized banks do make handle of your coins. Better to keep it on your hardware wallet and just put up good security on it.
7209  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to Win using martingale system? on: June 24, 2017, 07:56:21 AM
Has anyone seen or heard of anyone successfully using martingale?

Martingale is kind of a grey area for me. There are people who swear it works. But I've never had the pleasure of actually seeing it in action.



There are many success story of martingale but of course we do not know what they got after the success. Winners may keep the winning and stop using martingale but some may continue using martingale and lose all their money at the end. I myself never won win martingale, always ended up with a lost. Wink
Well even myself also lose with this system i think theres also some good gamblers who can manage to win using this strategy as they have patience and really huge bankroll together with mathematical analysis i think they got some decent earnings.
Mathematical analysis with martingale? I cant say so because i have experienced this thing already which no matter how you formulate settings on it, you will still lose up in the end on using it and even you have bigger bankroll doesnt mean you are exempted already on experiencing lose streaks thats why i do hate \this strategy but you can possible earn profits depends on your luck and if you do know how to exit when profits.
7210  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: which website do you recommend for starter gambler? on: June 24, 2017, 06:46:08 AM
hi i am new to bitcoin gambling and looking to make some quick cash, which website do you recommend for me to go gamble? thanks
Quick cash? Better not to gamble at all if you do have these kind of aims which you will surely experience lose instead of earning money. There are lots of gambling sites on the market depending on which games you would like to play.Theres dice, roulette, sports betting and other stuffs.Actually you can mostly see those gambling site on most signature wearing fellas on this gambling discussion board.
7211  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can gambling be profitable in long term ? on: June 24, 2017, 03:52:14 AM
I have knew some people who make gambling as a source of income and usually those card games they make money out of it which i can really say somehow that gambling can be profitable for long term but it will all depend on how good you are on those games but talking about pure luck based games i can say its impossible to make money out of it for long term.
7212  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When to leave the game? on: June 23, 2017, 08:33:49 AM
No, I'm not always winning, I'm mostly losing, I said sometimes I win in such cases, and if there were no winning cases it would be much easier to stop. But if it's not an easy challenge then it is even more intriguing. )

I dont win at all because when I win, I will keep playing and in the end Im going to lose everything. It is depressing for me because In the past Im going to keep playing by depositting more but then lose again. Nowadays I dont do that anymore but Im still playing, I had fun when Im playing now even when I only lose
Good for you that you did able to realize on the end and you make now gambling as an entertainment not for making money.Its really hard to resist when we are on the winning phase on which we will eventually play even more and stopping would really be a difficult thing we do only stop when we dont have money anymore to spend.
7213  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How greedy you are? When will you stop and withdrawn? on: June 22, 2017, 01:20:01 PM
2x of my bankroll would be only enough for me to completely stop on a particular day.If i do have bigger bankroll then i do set some percentage which i see its ideal to reach it out and i dont really force out to reach my target profits because when i already feel that i do suffer from lose on consecutive times i do decide to stop and dont come back on that particular day.
7214  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Worst mistake in gambling on: June 22, 2017, 12:57:55 PM
If you have a big loss, one of the worst things you can do is borrow to try to win it back. Just take the loss and move on.
That was big big right. That is the worst thing you can made when you are a gambler. The worst mistake you gonna do is when you borrow after you lose big money then you lose again what you borrowed. It is worst than losing some money. Don't become a debtor because of gambling.
If you are having this kind of attitude then expect you would really experience big debt and you would surely ruin your life even more because of those things. This is really a big mistake and we should not really chase loses because this thing will really put us on danger even more. If we do lose then just moved on and forget those and dont tend to chase it.
7215  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: can gambling give you lessons in life? on: June 22, 2017, 12:24:29 PM
There are some point that gambling can give a lesson to be learned most of all when you are loosing money and just came into your mind that playing gamble is really not worth your money for to spend why people always depending to think that gambling can be the solution of having luck of money.
You wont really learn if you wont experience bad things on gambling and on this way we would learn up and next time we do already know what to do but there are people do still blind and cant accept their mistakes instead of stopping they do still decide to play even more which they make their own mistakes comes severe and suffer consequences later on.
7216  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Pacquiao VS Horn (Boxing) on: June 22, 2017, 12:04:19 PM
i think pac-man gonna win the battle,Pacquiao still best boxer in Philipines,and he have so many experience,little ausie Jeff Horn still not balance for him,and also like Bruce Mctavish said,he believes the battle -tested Filipino will be simply too much for the young aussie Fighter.
Nont only the best boxer on the Philippines but the best among the world and we do all know that. He earned many championship title on many division which means hes really good those commentary would really be precise this fight would really be too much on that young fighter but well its a good experience for him. This fight is somehow have fixed results.
7217  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: June 21, 2017, 04:07:04 PM
There is nothing wrong with gambling because it is fun and entertaining. No one knows when gambling can be beneficial or huge lost because it is all due to luck and skills probably the ratio is 90% luck and 10% skill. There is only one thing that is bad when it comes to gambling and that is the word Greed. With you being greedy it will just lead to bigger lose. So when you do gambling just think of it as a source of enjoyment  not gaining profit.

So true. Just play on it just for fun and enjoy while it last. Don't bother to think of it as a means to earn. Go find a suitable and stable job for you. Because if you think that gambling can be a good source of income for you and your family, you are dead wrong. Play for fun and not for profit and for sure everything will be fine with you.

I could not agree more to you. Treating gambling as a source of income for your family is really a BIG BIG wrong idea. You will surely be frustrated and stresses will eat you alive. The most thing that will happen is that you only not earn any money for your family but you are also selling all of your properties and belongings - what then can you say to your kids?
That's just common sense. Why would you even use that as a source of income when the risk of having a large winning amount there is low. It's better to use the money that you are going to bet to a better place because, in gambling, that's just going to eat it up if you fail to deliver in your games, you should be thinking of the possibility of winning the amount. Just be satisfied with what you have and find alternatives.

That is true. and even if it is just common sense, the sad truth is that, there are still people that fall prey in gambling more than they can afford to lose and therefore affecting their family relationship and even lost all of their hard earned properties
yes for such people gambling is not a good activity and they should try to avoid gambling and make themselves busy in other constructive activities, but still there are such kind of people who are still playing gambling in a good way they play gambling up to a limit and never try to exceed that limit and therefore playing gambling is a good activity for them and they can continue gambling for a long long time without harming his life and his family life.

You are correct mate. These people are playing it right or gambling in a right way which is just playing for fun and entertainment and only spending money that they can afford to lose.

It seems you are a typical person who judges a person who gambles to make money is wrong. Not always gambling to make money is wrong. Wrong or not depends not on purpose, but depends on how to play each.
Its non of our business on how a certain person would treat gambling really since its his own money and we cant do anything about it. Gambling would be only wrong if you are already compromising too much your money where comes to a point that you already spend the money is already being lend for your living and also you did already bad things just to gamble.

I agree with you. At the end of the day, it is always the person who are addicted to gambling will going to help himself or herself. Our advices will be just his reference of his decision and we can't really force him or her to quit gambling.
in fact we can only give an advice and cannot force anyone. everyone has their one life to spend and take their decision, i think it is too much important to have good planning in gambling if we are going to play gambling in a good way.
But still its better to give some advice to other people because there are some do really listed on others opinion on which somehow you can able to help him realize or know about the risk on playing gambling.We do really have our own decisions on life regarding on how we gonna spend our own money and its non others business on how you would use it but its not bad to listed on experienced people specially on this field.
7218  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What did you buy for money won? on: June 21, 2017, 03:20:09 PM
If I will win in a gambling game like a lottery with a jackpot price of millions of fiat cash money, I will buy a property and invest a good business. That money will be used to invest at the franchising businesses at local areas of my country. I will establish a good sources of wealth that can be sustainable for my family needs and can support us for living.
This is really great idea that comes into my mind too but since lottery is hard to get the jackpot you need to waste lots of money but when you are totally lucky enough and hit the jackpot price then you ass is on fire because you can start a business you wanted before and also the dream house you want car you want and anything but make sure to stay humble all the time and know how to spend your money correctly because money is just a money that came into our hands to spend with nothing.
Hitting lottery jackpot is really once in a lifetime opportunity for us and we would really become instant millionaires but knowing on the chances needed for you to be able to win lottery I see its really nearly impossible but still people do really love to bet on it without losing hopes on hitting the jackpot which is really sad on wasting their money on keeping on betting on those kind of games.

I'm a gambler but not an addicted gambler I admit that I do play and do commit some mistakes on playing too much gambling.Mistakes are normal but we should really need to learn from those past mistakes to realize on what are the thing we suppose to do. Gambling addiction is like a disease which when it already overcome in oneself it will surely make your life miserable ahead.
7220  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin as a source of income? on: June 21, 2017, 12:44:39 PM
I think bitcoin can be a source of income. I myself use bitcoin as a source of income. But I think bitcoin for many people is only a payment method.
I don't agree with what you said about people leaving their job. I have not seen or heard any person have left his job because of bitcoin. Bitcoin can be a chance for investors But we don't know what will happen in future however I am very positive.
Believe it or not there are people who do leave their job and choose to focus on bitcoin along because they can compare the differnces on earnings on their day stable job.It might be a dumb decision but its their own choice and as long they earning decent amount then it should be fine.We all know that all things have come with a risk and bitcoin is included on that.Too much dependent on it wont really be a good idea.
