What was with Cleveland sitting out all their best players for last nights game?
The bench was full of them just sitting off looking like dummies and while getting paid to warm it. Angry
And they ended up losing the game.
What is wrong with these past champions? Roll Eyes
They said during the game those players deserved a night off but if they are going to lose the game I do not know why they didn't just have them dressed and come off the bench.
Come on now! Angry
It was obvious they were going to lose the game early on when odds were 8.6 when they were down 12-4 when their bench warmers for most games were only 2 of 14 attempts. Now that are really pathetic stats for a professional basketball team. Embarrassed
My parlay was killed because of the cavaliers, not a good night really, we should learn lessons that the Cavaliers are like the Spurs in the past where they love to rest their starters and will not make an early announcement. In that kind of scenario, it's good to do in live betting just to make sure who's playing or not.

Good thing today, I won betting on the cavaliers and I think for awhile that they will lose again to the lousy lakers when they were still down starting in the 4th quarter. Just to let you know, I won on the ML and over of the game, congratulations to me. Grin

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Unlucky for bettor, but really nice for investors. I believe house profit is possibly the highest it's been during the latest version, but don't quote me on that.
Sad to know user "hidden" lost a lot after he won huge amount before (100BTC in a bet). Judging from his bankroll, he really had huge bitcoin (Martingale from 10BTC until 80BTC and did 1 last bet with 200BTC = Total 350BTC lost on that run)


Wow that's some sick gambling there.  I wonder who this guy is.  What if it's really a Bitcoin whale like Roger Ver having fun with his holdings.  Lol.  He must be going "Oh I don't care with these coins anymore!  I have too many of them."

But seriously tho, 200 BTC on a single bet?  I could imagine only one sick gambler who could do that in dice.  Phil Ivey.  But I don't think he's a Bitcoin user.
Whoever the person, he is a extreme gambler because he bet 200 BTC in a single bet. That number is very much I think, I can gamble hundred times with bitcoin amount like that. I also want to know who dared to gamble like that only in single bet on dice, this makes me very curious. But I am sure this will make investors interested to invest in BitDice.

How much can I earn in profit on a monthly basis if I invest around 5 Bitcoins in Bitdice?  Have anybody here tried investing with them before?  It might be a better idea to put some BTC into good use rather than storing it in a wallet doing nothing.
I also would want to know based from experience, I found investing in a gambling site offers a great return but with that big amount, I think it would generate better return, I'm just curious and I hope you guys will share a real experience.

High rollers win big and lose big, that happens normally but in the end, it's still the site who will be at profit so investing is really great.

It depends on what you are looking for, as both are things for different purposes. I think investing is for who is seeking to earn money, and gambling for fun. Gambling also brings the possibility of profit, of course, but I think this should be viewed as secondary to this type of activity.
To be safe you have to stick with your first impression only, gambling is for fun while investing is a way to make profit. With your mentality focus on that you will enjoy both and while you are making money you can always have time to gamble as you are sure with your purpose, actually the problem will only arise in gambling if you are not focus with what you are doing and you are tempted to get greedy on the profit you can possibly earn.
7424  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling problem on: March 20, 2017, 01:49:33 AM
People who wants to earn money with short cut methods will continue to gamble even if they win or loose as that is the only way they find easy to make quick money and finally gets addicted to it and I have seen many people who have sold their house for the sake of gambling.

It is not really about wanting to earn quick bucks from gambling however it is only about getting money from it. There are alot source of income and gambling is just one of it, if you know how to do it well then you could make some cash out of it. It doesnt really makes everyone stupid enough to sell off their house to gamble
Well, overall, we want profit, who doesn't want profit right? It's sometimes for the people who have less patience, gambling is definitely the way to go for them. I think some of the addicted gamblers really does that and even play with their cars to bet and I don't know why they do that but the hope of winning, I think, is what they hold on to.
That's not advisable to sell everything you have just to gamble and I think that is already the effect of being addicted in gambling and your urge to chase your loses. Gambling problem is really a serious problem as it can make you bankrupt overtime, I don't want to experience this again as I have been addicted in the past and it's really devastating, I'm just lucky I was able to survive and quit.
7425  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and Supertition on: March 19, 2017, 07:22:03 AM
If you think that superstition will help you in gambling I suggest you stop immediately and don't gamble at all. These so called premonitions have made people lose millions of dollars in casinos. I have seen in person in a casino where a couple of middle age 40-50 years were saying this will be our lucky spin and they kept losing until they lose all of their money. The sum were about 17.500 dollars if I remember correctly. Superstition is only a way to lie to yourself and cannot help anyone in gambling.
Believing superstitions is good but to an extent, I mean if you just gamble all your money because some "pundits" ask you to.

You should use your own brain and intelligence to determine whether it's worth to bet on that.
I have seen a lot of pundits in my county who even have an accurancy of 90% in sports betting, but actually they themselves are not in profits overall so how they can help you ?
I would probably focus on developing my skills than finding my luck, I'm not a superstitious guy because I live in the present world and I only believe on what I saw except believing in God even if I do not see him. What is more important is the statistics and the trend and all the information you can read as that is your only basis and your key to be successful in gambling.

Golden State Warriors vs Milwaukee Bucks , bet for Golden State Warriors to win this game .
I'll go big for the Milwaukee bucks on this one, I like the way they play after the all star break and I think they will make a good effort to make it to the playoffs. Also, the under points of this game looks good to me, I will definitely take it with them on ML.
I have parlayed Milwaukee Bucks with Cavaliers, Wizards, and Bulls, if this wins I will be very rich tonight.lol Grin

If the Warriors lose this one then they really are in deep trouble heading into the playoffs.
They won the game and not just a simple win but a win that is very convincing because they were able to route the bucks at home.
Bucks was a good team but this team the warriors are back on their original shape, I hope this momentum will continue and they will have the winning streak heading to the playoffs, they needed it to build their confidence back again.

GAmbling your bitcoin hindi ko to masusuggest sa beginners ...,,

Mamuhunan kayo din pagmalaki na saka kayo magtry maliit ang chance sa gambling at malaki ang risk sa btc nyo sasaglitin lng..,,
Investing is different from gambling, of course even a newbie can gamble as long as he knows what he is doing. This kind of activity is for fun only and as you mentioned, the risk is high because chances of winning is very low. It's a gamblers decision on how he will manage his money, we just have to make sure that we are matured enough to manage our emotion to still stay in the game.
7428  Economy / Economics / Re: If you were in desperate need for money.... on: March 18, 2017, 01:31:42 AM
I would also borrow money from my parents. I still live with them so I have someone to turn to if I have financial needs. But if the situation is you are a gambler and always losing and desperate to gamble again, i am sure you can borrow money from people who's business is loaning.
That's a big problem when you are in desperate need of money because of gambling, that means you go out of your comfort zone and there is a risk that you might end up in the worst situation of your life. Gambling is an entertainment so you should not have a problem doing it, it's just a matter of understanding that you cannot make gambling as the solution of your financial problem.
7429  Economy / Economics / Re: panic selling on: March 17, 2017, 02:42:58 AM
Buy on rumor sell on news.
Few words but very direct. Yes, we have to observe the market, just like what happen with the ETF, there is a rumor than when it is approve the price will double to rich to a good price, and as expected people are getting into the hype, they buy and buy which gives us a good price.
Unfortunately, when the ETF was rejected, they panic and it makes the price goes down fast, lucky we are bitcoin is back in a good price now.
 
7430  Economy / Economics / Re: Is the economy situation in your country that bad? on: March 17, 2017, 01:55:06 AM
Economy differs from country to country. I don't feel my country has same problem. Moreover, there are countries like India, China, etc which are developing at the rate of 6-7% per annum. When we compare it to inflation in these countries, GDP exceeds inflation by 1-2%.
Boom and Recession are two poles, countries dwell between them. All what matters is political and economical policies.
While the growth per year is a good statistic it does not tell the whole story since it is not that difficult to have that much growth when there is not much in the country, for a country like the United States growing that much is hard because it is very developed already.
The world is just not fair, while the develop countries continues to be richer, poor countries are also getting poorer. If you are living in develop country life is surely faster than in poor country therefore technology is more useful in rich countries. However, that is not a hindrance for someone who would like to succeed in life, instead it could be an inspiration to work harder to develop yourself and be rich someday.
7431  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: March 17, 2017, 01:34:12 AM
Clippers @ Nuggets:
Both teams have been on their toes in the last few games, as both have to get something done to be able to get a winning record or be able to seal a playoff spot. Overall both teams have been able to get a good offensive result this season and it will be a spectacle for the home fans. Anyhow, the Clippers will try to fight their recent season struggles but will ultimately fall to the hands of the Nuggets. i ill take Nuggets +3.5 tonight.

Magic @ Warriors:
Both teams are heading in opposite directions, with the season-long struggle the Magic will need a miracle to pull out a win, moreover the recent trend has shown the Magic are unable to win games on a constant basis. Furthermore, this game will be a confidence booster for the Warriors who will need the most they can to keep the momentum on their side. im gonna go with GSW -12.5 here.

I will follow your instinct about betting on Nuggets and GSw.  I like your reasoning on choosing team,  i will parlay my bet of 0.1BTC,  i hope we have a good time after the match.  Goodluck for both of us
At this moment that the warriors are already insured of a spot in the west, I would not trust them with that points after what they recently showed against the Sixers at home. They are heavy favorites back then but they almost let the Sixer beat them at home. Also at the point, I believe the sixers are playing great against the magic but why is it the line is lower now, that sounds like a trap to me so I would stay away.

On the other side, I like the Denver and taking it at ML sounds more better to me.
7432  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin can not replace fiat on: March 15, 2017, 07:51:02 AM
While I do agree for other reasons, the problem you state can be solved by being paid with bitcoin. Some employers (notably, police) do have the option to pay wages in bitcoin. Though these are very few they are still there.
Not necessarily that all employees will adopt with bitcoin that is not relevant if they are not interested on bitcoin. Most just like to directly receive their paycheck and spend right away, bitcoin will not give them convenience because they are not into it unlike us who considers bitcoin already as part of our life. In the future when bitcoin will be majorly adopted, investors, traders, gamblers, and shoppers online will most likely be benefited.
7433  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin the future of online gambling? on: March 15, 2017, 07:01:45 AM
we realize or not, i think bitcoin is really famous in the online gambling and this could make people judges bitcoin as for illegal thing and they only thinking that bitcoin is just for playing gambling. but with the simple of bitcoin, i think many people nowadays is using their bitcoin to playing gambling in online and they can made much of bitcoin from the games.
Gambling is a bad thing, and bitcoin encourages it since bitcoin has not documentation and the user is always hidden means that anyone could do so, so your kid could just go on the internet and start gambling and that is the bad thing about bitcoin, but the good thing is that we gamble with any amount we want.

Its good point to discuss thoroughly since the concerns are not only adults but including childrens who don't have enough guidance in the usage of modern technology especially with bitcoin. There are pros and cons of bitcoin but being responsible in its usage could be the possibility of an individual utilizing it to prosper. There is a big possibility that maybe sooner or later bitcoin will become the of online gamblingm
It's more on the parents problem in the future if they will not monitor their kids properly, gambling with bitcoin is very easy and it does not require a KYC so kids can fake their information and they are good to go. For me it's only a small problem and this will not stop the progress of bitcoin online gambling as sooner or later this will also be address once gambling sites will be regulated by the government and require them to get a license before they can operate.
7434  Economy / Speculation / Re: Sell or wait? on: March 15, 2017, 06:13:43 AM
In my opinion if you has many bitcoin better you sell, seems currently will continue decline.

What prices are you currently looking at? We have been increasing steadily for a while now other than the crash due to ETF denial.
Even with a mild crash we rebounded back up to $1200+ in less than 12 hours.
I have more faith in BTC now, than I did 1 week ago.

Personally for me, I wouldn't buy Bitcoin at these prices. Bitcoin always has ups and downs in price and I think we are still on the upside. I'm waiting for some kind of temporary drop in price to buy more. There could be some people cashing out gains or whales manipulating the price, but there are always dips along the way.
I think, the best price to buy again Bitcoin is at rate $1000. But I think it's impossible
the price of Bitcoin will be down again. We can see every day that price is increasing.

the best price to buy bitcoin at is $10 but it will never happen again. these are just "wishes" and if you start planning on your wishes, you will soon lose the chance of joining the revolution and buying bitcoin at a "so called high price" which will soon be super cheap price. $220 was called too expensive once but i bought there. $450 was also said to be super expensive and a bubble one but i bought more bitcoin there. last year $730 was again called to be super expensive but i bought more bitcoin there too. and so on.

and besides you can buy in the dips but for that you need to leave your money on an exchange site and leave it in an open order. are you willing to take that risk? remember the exchange hacks?
That's the risk, you cannot just entrust your money in a certain exchange even how reputable they are. Buy at the right time and the right time is based on your evaluation in the present market and your speculation in the future. People will always say expensive because they fail to analyze the price trend, if one believes that bitcoin will continue to progress then buying at any given time is worth the risk.
7435  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is better? To gamble or to invest? on: March 15, 2017, 04:55:53 AM
Definitely recommend you Invest in something before you gamble that same money away. There's many "Safe" investments out there for one to invest in. However, gambling is all luck. At least if you invest, you got a better chance to make something out of that same money.
Aiming for money by doing both will give you a disaster, gambling and investing are two different things and they have different level of risk.
If you are good in gambling then definitely gambling is for you as you can become a professional and make a living in gambling, however it's apparent to us that the success rate in gambling are relatively low, therefore it's better to choose investment for lesser risk and better chance of success.

Thunder at Nets
These two squads rank in the top seven in pace of play and the Nets rank near the bottom of the league in defensive efficiency. Take the over on Tuesday night.
I go with the Thunder tonight cause the Nets play like crap even at home.
But one thing i know is that they can score so might be a high scoring game.
Especially with Westbrook going for the record of triple doubles so close now.
Beast mode might be enabled tonight for this affair. Grin
Westbrook got a very convincing win as they route the Brooklyn Nets at home, they are really protecting their playoffs spot and it's a good for them winning on the road. What I did with this game was I put only in the Thunder moneyline, I was a little hesitant since they are not playing well lately on the road and thank for the win although the payout is not really that big.

Meanwhile, game between the warriors and sixers looks interesting, looks like the warriors are a garbage team now, they are down double digits in the 3rd.

We have those experience of losing money in trading transaction or any business. But the things is how do we deal in such loss.

It is a great thing if after experiencing those things, we learn how to deal with it again. We will be more wiser and we will be more aware and what to do. Making us more wise in our decisions. 
Exactly, you learn from your mistakes and you continue your journey, there is nothing to fear because if you do, you will not be a successful trader. Trading offers great opportunity if you believe you can do it, never doubt yourself if you do hard work because if people can do it, you can do it as well.
We all start from the beginning and our knowledge that we learn and experience along the way is vital for a long term journey to succeed.

There is no such thing in our country yet, but it's just a form of payment and with your bitcoin why not just cash it out and pay directly to the company.
Anyway, maybe in the future we can see this kind of improvement and I'm hoping it would also be possible in our country, it will give convenience to us to pay our credit directly online.

Bitcoin gambling online Poker, Sports Betting & Casino

Bitcoin gambling becomes more and more famous for online players and bettors around the world. This is because Bitcoins are anonymous, decentralized with instant transfers and almost no processing fees. Unfortunately, as Bitcoin gambling can be offered anonymously, some scammers try to take advantage of this unique feature.

Game Protect highly recommend to select Bitcoin gambling operators wisely! Please also take a look at our Online gambling scams list. This list is of course not complete, as there are 100s of operators and new operators join the online gambling market frequently. But if a Bitcoin gambling operator is on this list, you should definetely avoid them!

If you have enough from criminal Bitcoin gambling operators, simply register your online Poker, Sports Betting and Casino accounts with Game Protect and sleep better! Wink


Well even in non bitcoin gambling sites, scammers do exist also. The good thing with bitcoin gambling sites is because we are a big community here who are helping each other making reviews on sites that we usually play, it's not easy for the gambling sites to scam us as they will also doubt that due to the big market that they are catering, one mistake will lose their income forever while maintaining a reputable site will let them earn regularly.

Reputation is the very important in running a gambling site business and I would not bet on sites with bad reputation coming only from reputable person as well.
