You have any method to share for win against the house?


What is the best way for bet and win against the house???

Please comment and let us know about it...
If a certain person do have that kind of method i doubt that he would easily share it on public for sure but well talking realistic and the truth on here which those things you do ask for is not really existing at all come to think off that house do always win in the end and beating it would really be impossible specially when you do play prolong on it.This is why its really important for us to treat gambling as an entertainment not a main source of income.
7322  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Is Your Worst Moment in Gambling? on: December 12, 2017, 06:41:28 PM
Since I don't play with money I can't afford to lose, my worst moments are when I realize that I spent almost all day gambling. Losing a lot of time to gambling is a bad thing too apart from losing money. I wish I learned something useful instead of gambling all day long.
Yeah when you gamble continuously it's feels like you are going nowhere just stand there and didn't move. I mean when you've won $100 then you gamble it again and you lost that $100 , won again $100 and so on you are back to the first point. Even worse you could become broke and wasted time at once, terrible really.
It's really addicting so even we already got something but we are going to play back and lose it again and again, though some of us might have some
control and take this opportunity but most are not, We do have our own versions of experience about worst decisions and what is common is the results
that happen, losing or ending up busted.
That's the nature, no wonder a lot of people says and agree that in the long run you won't make it profitable. So don't expect gambling could give you a good income nor a good entertainment. Treat it like you will only play it for the last time or like buying a lottery ticket to win big.
This should be how be treated on where those money have been deposited into the gambling site would be considered as fee on the game you are playing on which we should not expect that there would be guaranteed profits or winnings when we do play because with this kind of mentality it would really urge us to deposit even more if we do lose up that amount on first try outs.

Litecoin has been very impressive recently. It rose from $100 few days ago to currently trading at about $300.  Seems like Ethereum got freak out and moved up a bit. It probably knew that sitting on the old price will  attract suspicion and get investors mad. . I kind of think Ethereum should be trading $700—$3000 by now.

 

Well its true that litecoin are pump up so high this day my opinion its happen because the etherium network are overload, the bitcoin transaction are so slow so the investor make a decision and move to litecoin because litecoin transaction are fast with a great platform.
Etherium will take a step to push the price unto 600-700$.
I agree into this point but we cant be sure what is the actual reason on such price jump of LTC as of now and for those who bag hold LTC do make some serious cash but wont really come to a point that it would really surpass ETH on any way even though it do suffer congestion now but yet ETH still managed to increase its price still.I agree on the fact regarding fast confirmation and less fees with LTC.
7324  Economy / Gambling / Re: How do I find bettors to come to my site on: December 12, 2017, 01:38:54 PM
Exposure for your website is very relevant if you want to have many customers visiting it. And that comes in with different types of advertisement. Your main purpose here is to spread information about your gambling site to attract players and bettors alike. One thing that you could do is have a proper announcement thread (with complete details and catchy aesthetics) that will inform your target audiences about the advantages and features of your site. Second way is to hire a bounty manager that will manage different campaigns that will advertise your company. Make sure that it will be managed by a veteran person regarding this matter.  Wink

Many companies usually overlook this but make sure that your website has no problems within it (dead links, glitches, etc). People will tend to stay away from it if they encounter any problem that may cause them a losing bet and eventually losing money in the process.
When launching a new site as an owner we should really assure that it would really be free from bugs and glitches so that the community would really have no complaints and would be satisfied on their experience on playing.Proper advertisement would be the key here and as being said by most people it will really increase the chance to get players since this forum do have lots of traffics which potentially give you the result that you are expecting to but still this thing all depends on how good your gambling site is.
7325  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your Lucky moments during gambling? on: December 11, 2017, 05:39:08 PM
Well this happened with a friend of mine twice, he is just a one lucky fellow. He is one of those yolo gamblers. He mostly gambles on sports, anyway first time it happened was in South Africa vs Pakistan series where Pakistan was out of the match and they won in the last 2 overs, one by Junaid khan and another with saeed ajmal. His bet was around 2000 dollars on that match and Pakistan won that series. Same kind of stuff happened in the srilanka vs Pakistan t20 match, Pakistan won when they were i think 40/5.

He has won too many bets in these situations, my question is have anyone else experienced this kind of luck while they were gambling?

I think my very first lucky strike in gambling was when I was betting on my favorite sports team. Then I was watching the game on tv live and seeing my team get beaten so badly that I turned it off and accepted defeat. When I woke yo the next morning I won.

If your team was getting beaten so badly how come you won ? Did they recover from their poor show and turned things around in the dying embers of the game or what actually happened  to have made you won eventually? please throw more light on that for us.
He didnt clarify if he did make another bet or what because he do mention that he do won on next morning, maybe hes mentioning on his current bet and he do lost his hope for his team to win and accepted that they would really lose but unexpectedly the team won when he wakes up in next morning. This is the nearest possible scenario i can think off but well no matter whats the case there are really times that we dont really expect the results would really turn upside down which would cause for us to win.
7326  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is it a sin to gamble? on: December 11, 2017, 05:08:35 PM
IT is most definitely a sin to gamble. This isn't a question, it is a fact. Gambling = losing money = bad and sinning = bad so yeah they are one and the same - gambling is sinning.
Actually you missed point of why gambling should be considered as sin.
You see, church see love for money as sin, so when you are gambling you tend to win more and more money and somehow this is connected to greed and love for money. So, your fact (gambling=losing money=sin) is actually wrong.
There are different ideas and facts about gambling being sin or not. What I consider is, it is a sin. And many people are following it as in faith, and my faith believe that it is a sin because you don’t do anything. You just put some money and by look and shook you earn or lose. It affects your mind and make you lazy so it is claimed as prohibited in my religion. Same in other religions.

Gambling isn't a sin unless we are told what is sin, we should stop bringing in religious doctrines and what is right and what isn't until we define sin because that is what the OP is yet to provide for this heading. Sin can be anything one deems as wrong and that makes gambling not a sin for all.
Gambling is just a game which cant really be consider as a sin we do know this is just an entertainment stuff but when things are already going wrong because of too much engagement on gambling then thats the time we do say that it is already a sin since we are doing already things which arent correct or right already which would result on affecting our own life or even into others too.
7327  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why I suddenly decided to leave gambling alone. on: December 10, 2017, 05:11:51 PM
I think the major reason why you want to live gambling is that you loosing money in gambling! a decision that I think every wise person should emulate especially those that has loose fortune in it. However, everything boil down to greed! If you are not greedy? You will be happy in gambling but if you are greedy you will definitely loose money.
Its leave not live as you say. People do have different ways on how they would see things just like on gambling most of the time greed will always comes out into ones self and this is the reason why people do push to play gambling even more which cause severe addiction and would lead up on wrecking their own lives but some people do manage to quit and its possible if we would really want to. Just having a strong discipline with strong self control.
7328  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: your mentality after a huge loss? on: December 10, 2017, 04:14:12 PM
What do you do after you suffer a huge loss?
If you have more money would you again take the risk and invest or would you just stop trading and try to earn in some other way?
Always have a Plan B regarding on this kind of situations on where you should have a back-up plan when you do lose up money specially on big amounts.I know that most of us would really lose interest,stressing so much ourselves but we should really accept the fact that it is always been part of the risk on losing money.In this case,you should remain calm and think off on other way on how to recover its either still on doing trading or engaging into another thing.
7329  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and Supertition on: December 10, 2017, 03:42:12 PM
I really don't believe in superstitious beliefs because what matters most with me is luck and on how I'm doing well. So if I'm gambling and I'm doing pretty well then there's any ritual to be lucky it just comes out suddenly. But I admit that I was once a superstitious believer and I realized that it is just a crap made by our ancestors.
I don't believe also in superstitious because there is no basis in this beliefs but it will depend on our lucky and how we are good in gambling. Because if we base only in our superstitious beliefs how we improve yourself to become a good gambler. Most of the people believe in superstitious but even they believe they did not even win especially in the jackpot. There's is nothing wrong if we believe in superstitious but the important is need some skills in gambling because this is a very helpful when you gamble.
It would depend on which game you are into gambling.Some need skills and most of them do really rely on luck which doesnt really need any skills or crucial thinking. Superstitions have been made and this is why some people do believe it when they do follow or apply it and they do won then that thing cant really be removed into their minds that it did actually work and later on they would really apply it for their all possible gambling games ahead.
7330  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can maths help you win in gambling ? on: December 10, 2017, 03:08:27 PM
LUCK can be on your side not maths
As luck plays a key role in gambling not the math because gambling totally revolves around luck. This we can prove from the fact that not every gambler who is good in math wins every game, also the players who are more experienced but very weak in math win in more ratio because there experience to tackle situations is more. Math can help a gambler to avoid taking wrong decisions but here also experience has more priority than math.
Exactly I do agree with your words, gambling is mainly based on luck so how come maths plays a role in playing gambling. Maths can be helpful for trading, maths nothing to do with gambling. Gamblers never think of about maths, only traders are in line with maths
I do accept what you are telling without luck you cannot win any game. Even I also don't know how people use math in gambling. But I heard that people could do calculations when they play skill games. I will just calculate how much I lost and how much I gain apart from this I will not do any calculation while playing gambling.
There are really players who do make use of calculation regarding on their bets either on risking a certain amount to possibly win some amount. We dont know such thing since we arent there to play it. We do have different fields knowing that there are lots of types of gambling games which would differently need different strategies.Some may help some may not as being said here luck would really be always the main thing why we do won.
7331  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to spot a gambler addicted? on: December 10, 2017, 02:24:17 PM
If a person can not live a single day without gambling, in spite of the fact that he loses a lot of money in them, then he definitely already has a dependence with which he can no longer cope.

There will be a lot of gamblers who want sleep or go to home if they can't gamble within a single day.
And if these people are keep on thinking and talking about their losses.
This is a spotted gambler.

They cant get enough sleep because of thinking of playing gambling games over the night. I think mostly of us if we are addicted to something we are always thinking it before we sleep because we want ir again . It is the same with gamblers that they tend to overthink their games.

Mostly we can spot a addicted gambler is by the eay he she talks because she he always talking about gambling and how big he earn or loss from it .
Even through their actions we can able to identify a gambling addict which we would see him mostly on gambling sites or even on gambling physical places.If we do think always on a thing we wont really easily sleep without minding that thing and as a gambler we would really think off or possibly make plans on what would be the strategies that you would do on tomorrows game.
7332  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Where and which part of day do you gamble? on: December 08, 2017, 09:57:52 AM
Hi guys!
Many casinos have mobile friendly GUI and nowadays you can gamble and place your bets literally from anywhere and anytime you want to. So my question is simple. Where and when do you usually gamle? Do you ever gamble at work or your home? Is there any specific part of the day (week) when do you gamble?? Why? Do you think there is some ideal place and time?
Feel free to discuss and let us know Smiley)
I play gambling when im too bored sometimes and in those times which is my brain told me to do so,since im just in front of computer all day then most likely i could able to play gambling on random times it does depend on a particular day.Im playing gambling on my pc and just having a schedule of 2-3x a week on 1-3 hours max.
We all have different scedules but my story is almost same as yours i used to get a type of excitement from my brain that i have really good luck today and if i gamble i will surely make lot of money. The result always used to be opposite but for me i always gamble during the night when no one is around me and everything is so calm and quiet
Night time is the best time of the day on playing gambling which it is really calm and quiet which you would really able to enjoy the game since you do have a cool mind but in my case i dont have too much time on evening since i do have shifting schedule on my day stable job therefore there are only few times  i can play at night but mostly i do play on morning which do have a vacant time.
7333  Economy / Gambling / Re: FreeBitco.in - Win free Bitcoins every hour! on: December 08, 2017, 09:27:10 AM
Is this faucet still worth playing? I see it constantly mentioned in threads asking about the best ways to earn some bitcoin on the side, but i'm entirely sold on the idea. Seems like the house edge on the "multiply btc" tab is too high...

What are your guys strats for profiting on the site?
Yes, the house edge on freebitco.in is relatively high if you compare it to other dice sites, so it would not be a good idea to play dice game on this site, it still remains as one of the best faucet site for new users to have a start in bitcoin as the admin always pay the faucet withdrawals without any issue.
Thats what freebitco.in took this reputation and been sustained for how many years which it doesnt really have any problems when it comes to withdrawals.Its indeed true that they do have the highest house edge on playing their hi-lo game which is actually on 5% which is more than on the HE on most gambling sites in the market.If you do play then expect on what would be the result.
7334  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to control greed on gambling? on: December 08, 2017, 09:11:46 AM
The best way IMO is to set strict limits for yourself and follow them regardless of the result of bets and games you play, however, that merely is saying it and following these limits on your betting is very difficult, guess you just need allot of self-control to actually do it.
setting up limits is agaim not enough you even need to have self control over yourself and also have the ability to actually follow the limit you have set. when you gamble you have full concentration on gambling only which makes you forget the limitd you had set

Yep, having a sense of responsibility is much needed, I also do limiting schemes before but it doesn't goes the way I wanted it to be, if we aim to ein huge amount in gambling we need to risk larger amount, and still not sure about the result, so better enjoy playing and enjoy the winnings if ever won don't aim too much in gambling.
Setting out high aims will really put us on harm specially on gambling because if our mind did able to think such goal it will really not be easily removed until it was done. It would push you through your limits.Greed is normal in human nature this is why its really important to suppress it if you dont like to experience things like loss of huge money because of gambling.
7335  Economy / Gambling / Re: BTCHEAT.COM IS ONLY A HOAX? on: December 08, 2017, 08:44:26 AM
I have been actively watching BTC Heat and can confirm, that although their algorithm is intended to give people the joy of "winning" some bitcoin, they do a rather fantastic job of preventing you from being able to do so.

I have followed all their rules, disabled ad blocking, and mined for additional spins, and have even played the "invest" game.

I have kept track of how many rolls I have made, and how many times I have "won" and logged them, the following information is the results.

% to WithdrawRollsWinsWin %
80395102.53
811052100.95
82510101.96
83576101.74
841103100.91
851471100.68
861101100.91
87866101.15
881186100.84
89722101.39
90986101.01
91270210.04

Based on the last record alone, for the 91% bracket, I have received 1 win out of nearly 2.5k spins, and see a dramatic drop in "win" rate thereafter. If anything, this looks like its an asymptote algorithm, meaning it will never reach the 0.035 payout. I have spent a couple of weeks doing this to provide this data to everyone here. Hope this helps everyone stay away from this place.

Not to mention, 95% or more of their ads are phishing sites.

Update 1 - Updated the last record (as I have now run over 2700 spins at 91/100% to withdraw)
I dont know btcheat scam or not, but their activity make me scare about provable fair. Lol, one more, when we reach the minimum withdraw, maybe we cannot withdraw =)). Block or something like that will happed with our account. I give up this althought i have 78%.

I am actually really surprised that this thread gets so much attention and replies when it has been proved over and over again that you will not get any actual money from this website.

I understand if you have found it by Googling and never heard about Bitcointalk forum to read the reviews.

But why are people going on this forum, reading all the bad comments on how everybody is complaining and yet decide to use the site anyways. Makes no sense to me.
I dont know why they are still bothering theirselves on engaging this site which there no proof yet that someone have get their payout once they reach the threshold. People still calculating anything about the probability but come to think that those calculation are still useless since the site doesnt even pay up users. So whats really the point why still this thread is alive. Grin
7336  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Arbitrage on: December 08, 2017, 08:32:18 AM
So I see a lot of price discrepancies as I look at coins. I was wondering if arbitrage is effective and what coins to look for that offer the best results. For example, I bought a bunch of BTG for $74 and then later sold it when it hit bittrex for more than $300. Also, is this even legal?
Yes, its legal which this arbitrage trading been have done by some traders which can really give sure profits if its done on perfect timing and fast confirmations but if not then it would really be a risk on losing money instead because of the fees involved but this would depend on the spread because if the spread is too big then it would give the higher chance of profits even on slightest delays.
7337  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does bitcoin's price volatility affect your gambling habits? on: December 07, 2017, 10:38:52 PM
No effect at all. I gamble based on my wishes, so whatever happens to BTC prices, it does not affect me.
Same here, I didn't affected by the bitcoin's price volatility. I always gamble like i want, so if the price increase or fall, I will bet with the same amount of btc, I mean i don't watch the price in dolllars or any other real currencies, I only set the amount with BTC.

But I always do another way because I set my bet amount in USD and I will adjust my bitcoin amount accordingly. If prices go up then I will reduce bitcoin bet amount to match USD price because it is a hard earn money and doesn't want to waste so much on gambling. I usually fix around $50 to $100 for each session of gambling and never go above that amount and play only once or twice in a month.

Bitcoin price is at around $16k now (frankly, it's awesome). For sure, I will lower my bet amounts now to reflect this price changes. 0.001 BTC each session would be better for me at the current price.
If you looking to take the risk grow your Bitcoin through gambling then why you didn't put the same amount in Bitcoin? You'll never know you are lucky enough right? But well if you afraid and can't afford to lose that amount. I just feel it's makes sense to keep staking the same amount as part high investment.
Some people do have the balls to risk on gambling and some are not which i can compare sometimes that those who holds of is much wiser since he do secure with just staking but expect less profits unlike on playing it on gambling possible profits might be huge but also the higher risk on losing your bitcoin instead of earning some of it.Just would really depend on how risk-taker you are.
7338  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did you learn from your gambling mistakes? on: December 07, 2017, 09:53:00 PM
Yes. I've learned a lot, even though I don't gamble a lot, I was excited for the previous Turkish presidency referendum - where a lot of vote fraud had happened - and then I betted on the 'No' vote for some amount. The ruling party had never lost a voting but I mixed it with my feelings and lost, lesson learnt.
So you are saying that they cheated with it? And that is the reason why they don't have yet lost in a voting thing? I think that's just sad knowing that they are doing that to the people. Mixing emotions with decisions won't be so good because it tends to be not aligned with what you know and what the feelings tell you.
Yes, they obviously did. But that's not the only reason they haven't lost a voting yet. People do vote for them, especially people in rural areas who are uneducated and people with low income.
In that referendum, they accepted voting ballots without official stamps and they took this decision all of a sudden during the countings.
This is always been part of the reality on which for those people who do have the capability when it comes to money would always have the advantage since they can manipulate people if they do like to since they do have the money to put on.Knowing that those kind of people specially on non-educated and dont have income would easily get the bait and in exchange its already a fixed vote plus repetition.
7339  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does experience matter in gambling? on: December 07, 2017, 08:58:36 PM
as I know experience is important in some gambling games such as poker, but how about the other games like dice game or roulette, do you gain any advantage from your experience, can you used your experience to win the game? or maybe because of your experience you know whether to bet low or high in dice game

So Does Experience matter to you?

Yeah!experience is also matter in gambling,on how to win a game.when we differentiate  by the way of  ratio scaling  the beginner and gambler experience we grade it to 1:10  because mostly 80% of experience gambler know how to win the game unlike the beginner he is  only the way in process of learning,but there's a thought said learning is the best experience, so in order to  gain  more winning in gambling its much better you most know how to win the game and how to works it.

If the game is based on pure luck, the experience doesn't really matter and is just limited to how to play the game and how to mitigate losses by having or creating several sessions. However, if the game require some sort of skills like that of poker games and sportsbetting, then experienced indeed plays a vital role.
so generally it doesn't really matter right? as luck would always have bigger role above anything in gambling. no luck no profit even you are an expert with no doubt talking about experience. yeah let's be realistic , you can't do much to make things better in gambling since it's so addictive you would always come back to give another shot and the result won't be same. in the end you would realize that it's totally random.
I don't know but I still believe luck is just an extra factor, experience is very useful to win especially if we are playing a skilled based games, there are a lot of games out there where we can master and the moment we master them we can rely on our skills to go on a long term journey. I know majority of the gamblers are losers but we cannot deny the fact that there are people who are making a living in gambling, they have proven its possible to be successful if we have the sames skills they had.
I even think that luck are like everything, a final touch to decide your game should be won or lost. A strategy or any experience earned there as an extra factor to decide it. Well we have different point of view and that's normal, skill won't work out to make every single person make gamble profitable, it's still has a low percentage for those who make it happen successfully.
Luck would always be a major factor when we are talking about gambling and skills,knowledge and experience is just a plus specially for some games which do really requires it because you would need these things accompanied with luck for you to have a sure win because instances that even you do make the best research and choosing up basing on your experience if luck isnt on your side it will be still a lose.
7340  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will we ever see players transfer paid with bitcoin ??! on: December 07, 2017, 07:40:56 PM
From one summer to the next one,  the price of the players is multiplied as well as the highest player's price in the history, at least by 2 times. As a result, due to the permanent elevation of the prices of players , and due to the new emerging laws in our sports which is : money is every things !
Could we see some deals paid  in bitcoin ?


No as of now it's not even possible, there is a growing clamor to ban Bitcoins, UK and EU are pushing to regulate it, or impose further restrictions on it. So as of now it's really difficult to see how this would even function. What could happen and who knows if it happens, players could be accepting Bitcoin and under the guise of she'll companies hiding it, that's a possibility but official Bitcoin transfer are not happening now or future, unless some major law changes happen.
This is one of the things why it cant be accepted knowing that those countries do already have negative impressions into bitcoin which means it lessens the possibilities for this thing to be considered.This is why i wont really be surprised if they do deny it on the very first place and as most people said on here managers and even those players wont really plan to accept their salaries on bitcoin form because of its volatility and not having a fixed price.
