It is very tough for a person to come out of an addiction, and if I was there, I would probably gamble with the remaining money too. Having lost everything, I wouldn't mind losing little bit more. This is the reason why we see so many people committing suicides. It is very hard to overcome this habit of gambling and most of the people end up on the losing side only. Only someone who has the ability to control his urges can excel at gambling.
I have never thought about it that way especially when there is a word that struck me ' suicide ' because there are a lot of cases where addicts have seen dead or something like that. If it has become really a habit of negativity it would be better to have someone help you with stopping it. I don't know the best way but I know it can be done

I would also feel shyness if I had don't have that much money entering in a casino. Just picture yourself gambling with other big gamblers and they'll see you betting a small amount then they'll give that "what's this poor creature doing here?" look.
I haven't heard any story like that but I think it really happens but it's only on their minds I think. If they are willing to help you learn I think it's the other way around because everyone has come to the way where you are a small fish in a big pond then slowly turning into a big fish by learning. It's sad to think that people are so fast with judgement just because of that.

thinking positively will not help you in obtaining the Profit that you wanted but it would affect your emotional response whether you win or you lose. I don't know if it's better to think positively or just be neutral about it in my opinion it's better to be neutral so that you wouldn't expect to win and would less impact your emotional response when losing.
No doubt that positive thinking will give you an edge in gambling because positive thinking will allow you to put more focus in game unlike when you are not thinking positively. Becoming positive will change your life as you will be able to handle every situation but becoming more positive in every situation of life is also not good for you because sometimes you will make such decisions becoming positive which could be dangerous for you.
That's just how the world works if you let yourself down even for a moment probably it would take you down yourself. I agree with you that it was really change your life, you just need to have the right mindset in order to have the most efficient way of thinking just not be too independent. Because luck may not go your way soon enough.

Gambling is something that is still considered bad habits by some countries and some even prohibit gambling so that someone who is in the country may feel embarrassed because it is considered people who have broken the rules. But while being in a country that allows such shame gambling will not be in the person, it may initially be nervous to start the game but be assured that the shame will make you rich someday when you win a gambling game.
I haven't thought about it that way but I agree with your stand because it's somewhat illegal but there are places that it is so it's I have have situation where people would feel half-heartedly. I think if you work hard and be strict with your rules it would really be beneficial for you.
7225  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Shyness in gambling on: April 15, 2018, 10:59:25 PM
Shyness I always feel every time I join on the gambling table, but after the start of the 1-5 spin the atmosphere becomes liquid and makes me feel more calm in gambling. Shyness in the gambling table will be very disturbing for us to concentrate.
I think the best way to do with shyness is that don't mind the other people they do not care about what you do as long as it doesn't concern them with their play style. But if you make yourself really an annoying person in the table it could be a strategy to make your opponents unsteady.
7226  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Shyness in gambling on: April 15, 2018, 04:53:18 PM
No never I don't see any reason to why would you feel shy to gamble it's not that you are gambling with others money everything you use is yours including your profit or loss
Even if you lose it's fine there's nothing to be shy about it wasn't your day
That's the point of gambling. I'm not talking about being shy because you are using someone else's money, it's the feeling that you are scared to be humiliated, something like that.
I don't see why would you feel humiliated just because you are a gambler just because the society is against it , it's your money with which you are gambling at the end of the day , it's your loss if you lose it and there isn't going to be anyone to compensate. But i can 100% be sure that when someone makes huge cash of gambling that time the society has no problem with you they will come and congrats you and maybe even try using you
Probably by making a mistake that would be humiliating. Because I don't know what I was doing and I was afraid of making the wrong move and decide on the more greedy side during gambling. Well that's how people take advantage when they know you are a winner in gambling or even in real life.
7227  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Shyness in gambling on: April 15, 2018, 02:17:22 PM
Yes I actually had that exact same feeling before, I felt so shy gambling in casinos and I would even look out if I know someone who’s playing too so they wouldn’t see me. But that feeling of shyness eventually fade away as I grew older especially when my aunt bring me to casinos with her whenever she flies back here in our country. But on gambling casino sites, at first I was afraid to gamble but after my first attempt I wasn’t shy at all and I was thinking no one knows its me not unless I announce it on the chat box.
I agree that you really would feel that if it's your first time or something. I think you become better with experience because the more exposed you are, you become less and less shy. Well it's very different when you are experienced versus when you are a first timer.
7228  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Criteria of a good gambler on: April 15, 2018, 12:25:04 PM
A good gambler understand 3 main concept. First is that they play the correct game. Second is their probability of winning each bet, and third is the risk-reward of their bet. In order to make money in the long run, good gamblers understand which games to play and which to avoid. After that, the hone their skills. Simply put, the risk reward for their bet must justify its probability of winning.
I agree with your point that good gamblers will pick the right games,because some games have the probability of 50/50 and some games have the chance of 1/10,so if you pick the right games then he can increase the winning percentage.Mostly the slot and roulette games like have the low chance of winning.
mainly skill-based gambling would be the answer if the gambler aiming for profits. Since the outcome of the games, it could be researched and predicted. Unlike other types of gambling which the outcome is uncertain.
I think that's also the case with anything that concerns with gambling. it could be researched but you cannot predict what the future holds. Probably your skills would predict if it is as skilled game.

Someone will not be easy to stop gambling if it's often accompanied by a winning on certain bets on a game though not often, I'm sure it is.
But for the people who are really got a high depressed because of losing a lot of money, it has more chance/a bit easy of leaving from gambling.
Of course it's a benefit of oneself. I think once you have experienced winning then you would really know how it feels and how gambling can help you in certain ways. You should be careful to control yourself and put limit to your settings when gambling.
7231  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Would you play solo poker online ? on: April 15, 2018, 06:59:54 AM
I normally play online against house with doge coin as it is really cheap and I'm always able to satisfy my profit requirement playing against players is actually more fun because they tend to make silly mistakes and we can also take advantage but against house even though it might be fair it's harder for us to win
I always try to play against players and doesn't matter if its good player ( who doesn't make silly mistakes ) because you can read the players but you can read the system and you will always end up loosing if you try to constantly win against the system Smiley and yeah its more fun when you win against real players.
I also agree with your strategy because if you play with other players who could increase her chances and it is for sure there's a winning chance because a player could make mistakes or someone like that. It would be helpful because you know that you are against a human being. I agree with your strategy and I hope you profit.
7232  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Starting a Gambling Game on: April 15, 2018, 05:21:21 AM
I've tried the game with my friend that is guessing the total amount of money hidden by me and also my friend, by grasping some money in the hide. and who guessed correctly in accordance with the money that he mentioned the winner, and all the money they put will be taken by the winner. that's how I play. Grin
I think that's a great way to play a game it's like having money in the jar then guessing words inside or I mean how much is inside the jar. It is definitely one of the things that you could improve on if you know the dimensions of the jar or something like that. I find that really interesting.
7233  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Starting a Gambling Game on: April 15, 2018, 04:26:41 AM
Well, I personally think it is still gambling because there is money at stake. When money is put to bet or at stake, that already includes gambling because the latter encompasses so many meanings. But again, the general rule is when there is money put on the premise of increasing its value, it is already gambling. We should not confine to gambling those that are online, regulated by various governments, established by huge corporations, and whatnot. Because in every sense of the word, gambling can happen in our very homes. It knows no venue, parties, and rules, especially when it is made to happen in the confines of our comfort zones.
That is already gambling for me that has been one of the most exciting things because you get to have the possibility or any money. Huge corporations in an land-based Casino has really profiting with players that are addicted to it. There's no denying that it is fun.
7234  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Jackpot...... on: April 14, 2018, 10:44:06 AM
Never won to jackpot but I'm still trying my luck if its possible for me to win the jackpot. The more that I'm focusing of hitting the jackpot, the harder it goes so I'm not focusing it anymore but still I want to win.

Personally I'm never hit jackpot or won from lottery because my focus is not there.
Same as mine but there is nothing wrong if there are times that we are wishing to hit it. I want to hit the jackpot soonest.
I think it would really be just luck because if you take into account what you are doing, then it's less likely to happen. Even in other things, you are experiencing that. I know i did and it's best to not think too much about the jackpot unless you already hit the jackpot win. We all want that to happen to us Wink
7235  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The way to win in gambling on: April 14, 2018, 08:30:17 AM
I dont think it will work. I always think possitively in school class recitation that i would not be called, my mind always speak " not me" but the teacher always calls me. Kidding aside, mindset doesnt affect your destiny but it helps the gamblers will to continue and to bet more for a chance to win.
Maybe that's how you jinx it. Even in gambling, I thought of I hope I win etc, and then it's the time where you lose. It's very scary to have that moment when you are about to click roll dice (if you are gambling with dice) and then a RED comes a long. That's really sad Sad
7236  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: thinking quiting after lose on gambling. on: April 14, 2018, 08:22:15 AM
do you experience that after losing on gambling that you thinking you will quit gambling for good and never come again to gambling but then next day you are already positive  that you could win in gambling?

that happen to me a lot when i lose in gambling but a could never leave gambling. Cheesy
I am so guilty with this, everytime I lose in the game I would say that I would never come back and quit gambling for good but sadly I can't keep my words . And now straight in a week that I am not lucky maybe I will lay low again for a while and look for another things or option to make myself busy.
Whether or not it's only been a few days or a few months, if you have tried gambling and experienced winning, then it's definitely going to be a thing on your mind that you are going to reminded of that win. It's easy to win with that but really risky,  it's your choice to deposit or gamble.
7237  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Canelo Alvarez tested positive on a banned substance on: April 14, 2018, 07:48:17 AM
It's easy to say that it came from meat but what I don't understand is that do they have proof that it can be found in meat? If you think about it, we should test all the meat that we eat and see if there is a possible "banned substance" included in the meat. If ever there is, there is a small chance that it could be detected because if you eat only a small portion like 0.02 mg of something, it's too tiny of weight to be identified in your system. That's just my thought about it.
I think the substance is not from the meat because you are right we just eat a small amount of it. Illegal substance use is common to mexican boxers just like in the case of Julio Ceasar Chavez Jr. In my opinion they used illegal substance to have advantage over GGG because they know that they will lose that fight.
Probably it's like that. It's going to be a negative impact for his team. Something like that shouldn't be tolerated especially in professional sports. I think there are other people or sportsmen do that but hide it. It's sad that they are trying to do shortcuts.
7238  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The consequences of gambling on: April 14, 2018, 07:43:55 AM
I have witnessed many people and families become unhappy with participating in gambling. They lost the money they earned, they lost themselves, lost the trust of their loved ones, eventually became drug addicts. I advise you not to participate in gambling, first a fun habit, then it will take away all you have. Be alert to thinking of getting rich from gambling.

You would really come to a point on where you would able to suffer consequences like losing up your family or being got drug addicted due to lots of money but we know most gamblers are on opposite way which they do have negative profit instead which it will really mainly affect your entire life if you engage in gambling too much.
One of out family member got really addicted to gambling until he came to a point that he chose to gamble than to spend time to his family. He got broke and end up losing everything including his family.
That's a really sad story knowing that you have no one else to be with and no money. It's okay to have no money as long as you can rely on someone or be with family. It's depressing to be alone but there are times that it's better to be alone.
7239  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Shyness in gambling on: April 14, 2018, 03:11:13 AM
I'd love to catch a shy fish at a table, in poker this is pretty much a guaranteed felt scenario. The simple facts are, if you're shy don't play face-to-face games as you will get completely dominated. Your shyness will likely make you the weakest hand at the table, and will get you in situations you don't want to be in.
For experienced poker players its really easy to find out if your opponent is holding a good card or not if he starts to feel shy / scared. I'm not good at it but when I'm on the situation the feeling is intense so I prefer playing online poker instead of f2f poker. But if its for fun I'll play with my friends or relatives, I'd love to have fun with F2F games with them.
I agree that you could easily read someone who is shy or you wouldn't know unless you are playing with him. I think it is really a big factor when playing in land-based casino is that you know how to show yourself or make others review so that they think they know what you have but is that you know how to show yourself or make others review your face so that they think they know what you have but you have the upper hand because you know the real cards that could beat them. Being experienced at poker with a great Poker Face would be extremely useful.
7240  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When do you know its time to Stop? on: April 14, 2018, 03:07:34 AM
set up limits for yourself or set a target profit or lose when you play in gambling
It's easier to set up a limit, for example you'll gamble for this day for only 0.001BTC - 0.005BTC. There's no guarantee that you can hit that target profit, it's even harder to reach it and when before reaching that you can lose.
0.001-0.005 is the most secure boundary whether it's in the form of victory or defeat. enough targets with 0.05btc mod,
immediately stop gambling if you have reached the target and also immediately hetikan if your defeat has reached maximal 0.005 to continue in the next day
and I am sure you knows when time to stop or continues. If do not have a target you don't have the goal.
Not all knows when to stop. When a gambler can't accept defeat, he'll prove to himself that he's not a loser and he wants to keep through until he lose.
Greed is the biggest enemy of gamblers, therefore we can not determine the limits we get loss or gain
So you are talking about leaving a balance which is around 0.05 then every time you gamble just win around 0.005? I think that's not a bad strategy and I would try that in a way so that it's either you win or lose then you still have a profit in the long run limiting yourself would be an excellent thing to do.
