Yes, its very entertaining to play slots and its very addicting to begin with. But I don't know any strategy that will make you win. It's just based on pure luck. And if you push the button at the right time, the reel will produce the result in your favor. But its very risky as it is based on random and luck. So their is no strategy for that. Just pray to the gambling Gods that you gonna hit a jackpot once you push that button.
Honestly, I do not see anything entertaining about slot and I have never loved it for once. It is pure luck and there is no strategy you can use to at least minimize your risk of losing all the time.

For example, at least I can play a small amount on dice and use the martingale strategy to keep doubling up until a green shows up for me and I start from the scratch again. Roll slot 50 times and you may still loose. Grin ... How is that fun? In as much as I gamble to have fun, it does not mean I should find something that will at least still give me a chance of winning.
I am also not a big fan of slot because of its nature. Moreover, there is no trill in watching all the slots being filled with the same object. Everyone has his own taste and I prefer to play skill based games like poker. Martingale is the only strategy that can help in recovering the loss in all random games but it does not work hundred percent of the times. Kids are into this game a lot.
We do really have the same taste when it comes to slots i dont see any special thing about it this is why i dont really play this thing at all but still there are people who do like to play which some of them do end up on making huge money on a particular day which you would eventually do make question on how they do it but totally they are just too lucky to hit those repetitive images.
7582  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What keeps you coming back??? on: October 09, 2017, 05:33:46 PM
I do not gamble to much but it always seems that when I do, I take the loss big time.  For example, I have lost over 3 BTC in the BustaBit game online.  It is fun and I like to play but I always get greedy with it.  I have won about 2.2 BTC back, but I lost more than what I have won.  For some odd reason, I keep coming back over and over.  I do not know why I do it, why do you?
because of LUCK EXPECTATION..when we gamble were always expecting to be lucky by all means to win.even if the reality is more chance of loosing but still we gambled..its a matter of self control to fight the Lust of gambling.😂
This is the common thing and the main reason why most people do come back and play gambling again and again because we do expect that we would already be lucky on our next bets or on other day.If we do really have these kind of aims we would really end up on playing gambling on a particular day which would possibly make you addicted sooner or later.

Getting a job is not possible for everyone, not everyone has family or [friends] to help them and sometimes they will make the bad situations even worse them. If you've ever really needed money and were very desperate, than you probably know that people would let you starve to death rather than give you $5.

It's weird how people won't toss out just a few dollars to help someone in need, yet they'll spend $10000 or more on their pet that has an average life span of under 5 years.

But then again, if you give the person in need money, they'll keep coming back for it. It's a real crap shoot

these is the ugly truth in life
there are just people who wants easy money
too much greediness is the main reason what else
then selfishness ,its so sad that this people exist they dont give sympathy to the hard work of others
This is indeed the ugly reality in life which there are people who do really like or wants easy money without exerting effort unless if you are a total handicapped then it would be considered but if yo udo have a complete body and capability to work then you should work hard in able to make money.On this world there are people who are really on the top middle and in the bottom.
7584  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to control greed on gambling? on: October 09, 2017, 02:24:30 PM
As i know gambling is all about luck and how to control my greed, except sportbetting (of course need skill and strategy).

I have experience in gambling (casino), somtime i hit big only with faucet or free money and i can withdraw from that. but because my greed i always want more and more, then i'll come again with my money as bankroll. Bet more and hope win more, but because of that i'll lose my money little by little and usually i'll stop after my bankroll to be "0". I call that with greed.
Anyone here have any suggestion to control my greed? Let me know.


Control yourself and your emotion cause if not better you quit gambling. Just set your daily goals like if i win 50 bucks today or if i lose 20 bucks today i will stop and play again tomorrow. If you are gambling just do it for fun not for your money for everyday life.
Great idea mate put your limitation in the manner that you can afford to accept it whether you win or lose you are willing to quit and stay away for a while because being greed will just let yourself being dumped inside the house consuming most of your time and money trying to win big or recover your loses in a quick span of a time.
All of us do have greed which in the times it would come out it would really be hard to resist this is why this thing would really matter most on how a person would able to control himself when it comes on gambling limitations.If a certain person is sensible and do really value his money and time then he would able to think off his responsibilities and addiction would really be rarely to see.

I waited for OP update but it seems that he does not even care about what we said here. Is this only some tested project for others to play so winning or losing does not matter to him. At least OP should give his best to make their site better although it is just platform for people to fight here. Why all PvP games end up like this?
You are right,after op made some posting on here regarding on the new game he doesnt tend to go back and answer peoples queries and suggestion on here. We cant do anything about it if they decide to abandon or they do just forgot this thread.
7586  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling loses and wins on: October 08, 2017, 04:34:01 PM
what happens in gambling is, lose more, and win less. I had won about $ 50, but my defeat was over $ 100. why should you think, that gambling can make us rich? Clearly, if gambling only spends our money, we win today, but lose more tomorrow. so, gambling with a little money, and just have fun.
This is why gambling business is really profitable because there are lots of gambler who do play and as you said lose is really more than on winnings which is normally happening on gambling field.There are only 2 outcomes which is lose and win but the ratio of lose is more than on win and gambling houses do always have the edge.
7587  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Feeling regret after (Not trading, not gambling, etc...) on: October 08, 2017, 02:53:07 PM
We all do mistakes and from that mistake qe should suppose to learn from it. So if I were on your shoe and I have that money left in my account or pocket then I would invest my money on Bitcoin and leave it there for a couple of years or even a year will do and you will really see the difference by then.
Well this is just an another case since you can able to afford to hold up for long term but there are people who wont really prefer on long term holds which they would really make active tradings.We would eventually learn up from our mistakes that we do commit and as a person who would really strive to learn would pursue even more to make things in order or profitable. Regrets cant be avoided because our decisions arent fixed and change time to time.
7588  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is bitcoin games legit? on: October 08, 2017, 01:42:50 PM
What game was it? Did you try to google other user testimonials? You can typically find out which ones are scams by simply Googling.
It was a simple betting game where we have to just guess the next number will be greater than 5000 or not.
It was a game in this (freebitco.in) website... dont play it is just fake.
If you could verify your bets then that would make them legit. freebitco.in is a legit gambling site afaik to get an instant withdraw from them you need to have more balance than that because you have to pay for the miner's fee too. Here's their main thread if you want to check them out
The satoshi he won is just sufficient just only for the miners fee which you wont really able to withdraw any funds since they do have set a minimum amount to withdraw+miners fee then those 52k satoshi of yours wont really be enough. Just click the link if you do like to be enlighten.  Smiley
7589  Economy / Gambling / Re: looks like bitkong site is secretly mining on users machine - (Browsermining) !! on: October 08, 2017, 01:17:13 PM
Just checked my browser mining capacity and what I can mine is just 2 cents worth of monero per day, lets multiply this by 1000 users at a time which will be like $20 per day considering site will have 1000 users+ online at any given time.

I don't think this is worth for bitkong because they are earning way higher than this little amount per day just from their games. I think site is using so high amount of CPU because they have really heavy graphics in their site.

Whats for they use other people to mine?mean while they can get easy money just from opening gambling site. This is does not add up, more over if their people online not even up to 100. I think they never do this, just higher usage of cpu does not mean they have mine from your computer or laptop. This is because of their merely high graphic here or may be some of their design really cost a lot of usage

they don't mine,their owner was in this thread
Bitkong is a respected gambling site,so they would not try anything of sorts
its not Showtime (just jidding),yeah their site is not optimised properly and too heavy on grpahics,imho
but this is not because of the shady mining scripts at all
But what can you say on eating up 90% of CPU process? No matter how big the graphics it is it wont really consume up that big. I cant say that they would do shady thing knowing bitkong is a reputable gambling site and doing shady thing would really destroy their credibility maybe op did open some applications which would cause up for its cpu process to be that high.
7590  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can you tell if you are suffering from gambling addiction? on: October 07, 2017, 07:19:39 PM
I just want to ask how would you know if a person is suffering from gambling addiction. Can you guys tell me the signs of it?
The signs of people who are addicted to gambling are they have a complicated life. a lot of people are experiencing it and they just seem to be unable to think well anymore. all that is in their mind is to keep trying to earn money. when in reality they will only sink to destruction. playing gambling for fun much better than having to get addicted.
Fix our minds to play gambling just for entertainment and dont go beyond it and thinking already that you do play gambling for the sake on profit making because this thing would really mold you up as an addicted person.There are lots of my friends who are addicted to gambling which most of them is suffering on the consequence on which gambling gives.I have told them but they dont listen at all.
7591  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slots Strategies? on: October 07, 2017, 05:36:18 PM
There is absolutely nothing you can do in slots to improve your chance of winning.

The only thing you can do is use solid bankroll management. For slots that probably means never to bet more than 1/200th of your bankroll per time you spin, otherwise you can go bust very fast.
1/200th is really a nice control but later on when you got bored because you lose up for sure you would changed that later on.This thing is most likely happening on me when i do tend to play slots.Im more emotional than on playing dice.Strategies on playing slots isnt possible because theres no way that you can able to control that Knob or roll button. :
7592  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: WAITING FOR WITHDRAWAL 0.032 BTC FROM NITROGENSPORTS. on: October 07, 2017, 04:10:26 PM
I have dropped them a male regarding this, I am waiting for their reply. After this I will share screen shots of accounts and bets. I  am sure that this is some kind of mistake because i played with my own deposit and take all in risk two times in dice and one sports bet with 0.02 btc with 1.6 odds.. the only game I played was 3 card poker and that too against casino not with any player and that was for only 0.001 btc.
I will update it as soon as I will get the reply.

I deposited some money like 0.012 and played some dice bet and one sports bet. I give some money to some of my friends through transfers like 0.001 or so. Now when I tried to withdraw 0.032 btc it says ..your account is locked for a brief review, i got a support msz stating that I have done something wrong in poker and my account is locked but I never played poker Please tell me what to do ?

In your first post, you said that you never played poker game and now you're saying that you played 3 card poker games.

I think for this kind of issue you need to work with their support team to resolve the issue and post it on their official thread instead of opening a new thread. If they don't resolve it then can open a scam accusation thread with all the necessary proofs.


Its quiet odd to see and compare both post which we would really have a doubt which is true or not.If he never played poker then whats the thing he is complaining on here.This issue would really be solved between op and the site itself and as most people suggesting on here if they wont pay you then open scam accusation then be sure to show strong proofs is you dont want to be bashed by the community.

So guys, a little of us are always betting from faucet or tips, so our account is usually in red numbers, but is amazing when you have a lucky rush and your account become green, really feels nice.

 How do you feel with your actual account profit? are you green or red?

For me green means success.Its good to hear when you say green.Its like fresh in your eyes.lts like you feel good.So when l hear a green profit its a very g9d profit,a big profit.That it is a very good harvest.So its a very good success when you inveat or trade bitcoin
As long as you are a good follower,people will kthis will be donen this
No gambler would cry if they would able to see greens on their bets which it do shows winnings.If you did, then you are not a normal person. Its really normal for a human being to react on that way which we do win and make money on our bets,for sure we would really be happy on that but speaking on faucet or tips i dont usually able to enjoy those amounts.I would rather deposit on my own.

All of us is really prone to commit mistakes this is why you should not looked down into yourself just like me i do still think on what would be the best possible steps for this upcoming fork of bitcoin.
For now this is my plan, i do sold up some of my coins and cashouting them exchanging into bitcoin itself and store up and at the same time im saving local fiat money incase if theres a dip again on the price of bitcoin so that i can buy even more.

7596  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can maths help you win in gambling ? on: October 05, 2017, 05:59:39 PM
I just read one article that's about math can help you win at roulette game then i want ask with you all, did you believe math can affect to gambling games? i'm not expert in math so i don't know


this is the article that i readed.
http://theconversation.com/can-maths-help-you-win-at-roulette-69440
Yes ,maybe maths can help but not all the time. Albert Einstein supposedly once said: 'No one can win at roulette unless he steals money from the table while the croupier isn't looking.' Although I wouldn't normally question Einstein, this statement isn't true.  In fact, you can use Einstein's specialist subject, physics, to help you win. Or you can find a biased wheel that makes some numbers more likely to come up.
What Einstein actually meant was that there is no mathematical trick that can help you win at roulette.


All the mathematical strategies finally depend on our luck. Especially in casino games while choosing any number if we do any calculations, our result depends on our luck. I am not saying maths will not work in gambling, but it only works for experts and those who are born to become a gambler. Many people use many tricks to win money in gambling and in that this maths also one type of strategy.
Using math would somehow be effective but only if luck is together with it which we can able to increase the probability of winning but this thing isnt sustainable for longer runs and cant really be relied.
There are people who do really born to be a gambler but actually this kind of techniques or strat do only works in some games.
7597  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What did you buy for money won? on: October 05, 2017, 05:39:12 PM
I have won huge amounts only a few times in my life, and the one I am currently having memory of is the one I won on bustabit, it was quiet fun and also tense too. I play with different strategies and at that particular time I was using fibonacci sequence, so I was big in start and suddenly I was in losing streaks of under 2x so I kept on doubling the initial amount and I was draining my bankroll for chasing a single win and then I reached at my last bet possible of 1btc and then I won that game at 3x so that made me 1 btc rich. Then I brought an iPhone and a ps4 with the money won and rest I kept in my savings wallet.
i think not much people get the fortune to win frequently enough , especially a big winning. people usually use the money they have got to buy things like a new gadgets, cars , house etc. and rarely i see people use it for investment i mean like to buy share or something like produce money again later, it could be the best option i think rather than just spend it on useless stuff.
It’s not about spending it on useless stuff. Some of the people out there are struggling for their lives indeed. They have to fulfill the daily needs of their own and their aim is to earn money through gambling or any other way available to get rid of all the tensions.

How a person is spending his or her winnings is better a personal thing and can’t be questioned. As for me, my priority is to save them for future use as I don’t need it urgently.
Right,we cant really blame or force people on what would they do on the money that they won since we do have our own business to do.Its up to him if he would spend unwisely or not.We do have different minds which means we do have different on our own ways on living or planning our own life. Its much better to secure for savings and some of it would be put on possible investments.
7598  Economy / Economics / Re: Mining coins save or sell it? on: October 05, 2017, 04:43:11 PM
I think mining coins today is very profitable because the price is rising, but the most important thing that we should consider is the price of electricity, if the price is not more than 25 / KWh cent then immediately mining.

Only alt coins are profitable to mine now, for the bitcoin mining it's hard to get now on it because of it's difficulty. And even mining of alt coin now is having it's difficulty increase especially the Ethereum. But there are some alt coins that are good for mining now like xmr. But if you still have those mined bitcoins it's better if you will just hold it until the price of bitcoin fly to the moon.
Most people may not really want to do this considering they do not even have the information they need regarding any investment they can easily embark on. I do not honestly believe in just saving money hoping for the value to increase over time, I want to be able to have more and still benefit from the value increase at the same time. That is how it should be.
Mining coins is mainly profitable because prices rise but the difficulty not so much, over time the difficulty will change accordingly so it will be harder to brake even and turn a profit. The thing with altcoins is that most of them (atleast the small coins) tend to peak at a certain point and then drop down for a couple of months before climbing back up or becoming obsolete. If I were a miner I'd sell my altcoins at the peak and not hold for 6 months. Especially if you're mining multiple coins. The only coin I'm really holding long term is bitcoin.
Holding for 6 months is too much i do usually sell of on those coins when i do see that i do earn percentage profits and i didnt tend to make to go for long term.Its normal to think off that mining difficulty
do increase over time which would lead up for you to reach roi for longer times but still you can able to manage to be profitable since there are lots of coins to be mined in the market.
7599  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does bitcoin's price volatility affect your gambling habits? on: October 05, 2017, 03:54:31 PM
So does this factor affect how you gamble?

If prices go up, do you lower you bets? For example, you normally bet 0.001 per bet, do you lower it to 0.0001 per bet?

If prices go down, do you place higher bets? For example, you normally bet 0.001 per bet, do you place higher bets like 0.01 per bet?

Yes I do, i always deposit my bitcoin to gambling site is around $100 per week if i lose it all i will deposit again next week but if i can run it i will not deposit. When the price go up, i will lower my deposit and when the price go down, i will deposit more. For each bet, still same and don't care about the price.
You can buy a lot of food by these 100 dollars that you keep on saving in gambling sites every week and food is much better than gambling. You must be winning and losing. Also as you are a regular customer, you must be actually losing more because house always does this with such people.

Don't you think your bitcoins are actually being wasted away and you can utilize them in some more beneficial way?
Really I am just wondered and astonished with the people who are even gambling with bitcoins. It is not bad to even gamble with fiat but okay let it be a little foolish but why people are just wasting their entire bitcoin wallet just for gambling. They think by doing so, their bitcoins could be doubled? Seriously? They are just fools, fools who never get their money again.

Because some people has no access to credit cards or a gambling account that requires so much KYC that they even require a selfie with your mom. :/
Bitcoins provided a way for people to gamble, not every body bought bitcoins for purposes of speculative investments, some uses it to gamble on casinos or sportsbooks.
This is why bitcoin gambling is becoming popular because of the convenience that it gives and there not hassle on following up shitty KYC rules. Bitcoin price volatility doesnt affect too much on how i do gamble but somehow you would regret later on because you would lose up soo much totally when price do rise up.

Gambling is not a profitable activity, it is a just for entertainment purposes wherein we gamble just to have fun. We can't always win when we gamble, so it doesn't make it profitable. I guess you may invest in gamling for you to have a profit.


Gambling is profitable to people who always have luck in it. Gambling is always risky in any aspect even with the small amount and with the huge amount. Many people will think with little investment we will make more money through gambling but it is always wrong. Gambling is always very risky and winning chances are very less.

Not just with luck. There are gambling games that doesn't need pure luck.

Im in my case have a great stats by doing sports betting so basically gambling is profitable to me. I don't believe that winning chances here is less like you are saying. It can only applied on house edge gambling games but not on a strategical based games.

Sportsbetting is sometimes profitable because some people claim that they know some knowledge regarding the game that is why they are going to win the game. When they are know what will happen then they will bet for it but everything depends on luck as well so sometimes prediction might be wrong and people could lose so it is not that profitable either
Sport betting is really good for those people who are good on analyzing stuffs on picking their team or players.It may not give constant wins but winning rate is much higher compared on loss which is really possible and i saw some people who are making it.They can able to sustain to play sports betting or even on poker because of theirs skills and knowledge together with experience.
