Until no rules has been drafted and sign yet, we can continue to do like what we normally do. The laws that will be made is just to combat the illegal transactions online as required by the Anti Money Laundering Council and for sure the local exchanges where we convert our bitcoins into fiat will surely notify us once it's out for implementation.

The only gambling where your skill plays a significant role to help you win the game is either sports betting like soccer or texas holdem poker. This texas holdem poker in fact is 90% based on your skill and 10% based on luck.

Dice,slots, blackjack are game of chances where they are pre programed to make you lose money in the long run.

You should quit luck games and try skill ones, if even in skill games you are bad, then quit gambling.
Correct if you are weak in knowledge base game better stay away from this gambling or you can afford your loss play slot games just for fun. The slot games only give you entertainment and these games are not profitable. Only the skill games like sports betting and other card games are profitable. If you ask me, i will suggest you play sports betting.
That's true, games where we have no advantage is only good for fun, hence people who really want to try their luck and to be able to use their skills in gambling tried the two most popular gambling games which are poker and sports betting. Between the two, I am more focus on sports betting because I believe I have my passion in sports.

In my view, Investing is the best choice. it has got strategy and make us smarter.
The gambling is a fortune. it's very dangerous.
Everyone has their own choice, to me I like gambling as compare to trading, in gambling you have always chance of making big money in a short time, you just need some trick to learn about gambling, if you have some experience and skill of gambling that will also be helpful in gambling.

I personally have good experience in gambling therefore for most of the time I make good money there.

You can say that because you have a good experience in gambling but most of the people here will say that it is better to invest in something profitable. Even though that there is no sure investment that has assurance to give profit but that is making yourself secure because investments has lesser risk than gambling.
The experience really tells us what to choose, I personally choose to invest than to do gambling because I have never achieve my long term dream to win consistently, what I only experience in gambling is just a temporary win because the next time I gamble I still lose it all, including my profit in the previous days.
7724  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you feel shameful for being a gambler? on: December 27, 2016, 01:34:51 PM
I don't feel any shame telling to people of my circle that I am doing gambling regularly. Even my family knows why to feel shame when I am doing gambling with my own money. Others have no right to judge me as long as my gambling habit is not creating problems for them.
People don't have the right to judge but they do usually. And that's the point of my question.
Regardless of our aim in gambling we have the right to gamble and not to be ashamed of it as long as we do not steal the money we use in gambling, it's our money so it's our decision on how to use it. It has been noted than gambling is just a form of entertainment and as a person we have all the right to be entertain to relieve the stress in life.
7725  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can gambling be profitable in long term ? on: December 27, 2016, 01:20:35 PM
yes its possible ,
Yes, but only in sport betting.
I do not agree with this, how can you be in profit with sports betting ?
In fact it has higher edge and plays an emotional role like if my country is playing against other country in soccer I might make a emotional bet. I am really curious to know how can spots betting be profitable in long term.
i was hear that several times ago there is a person that betting his wife for soccer match and i think this is also the proof that even in sport betting will ruin people life because just like you say that greedy and emotional will destroy your bets so there is no long term profit in gambling

That's pretty rare to happen in gambling dude, and a person with a clear mind would never do that to his wife, we only bet our money and not a person. Maybe he cannot just handle the stress in gambling and even his wife were use as a bet in sports betting.

When you are out of mind, there is not specification in terms of type of gambling as you are still gambling no matter what.
7726  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you use Cashback or bonuses? on: December 27, 2016, 12:09:49 PM
As busy I am in gambling since I'm gambling regularly, I do not anymore bother to avail of the promotions as I do not really get big benefits when doing it, when I was a newbie I do participate on it but this time I am a more serious gambler and I have to make sure I will be able to make use of my time in gambling wisely as I have more serious business to do than gambling.
7727  Economy / Economics / Re: How many Bitcoin do you have saved? on: December 27, 2016, 11:39:10 AM
BTC 85
Seems a small number of bitcoin mate with the current price, my dream is to get at least BTC100 but with a price higher than the current price, probably at the rate of $1,000 if it will happen soon. I think with constant savings, I will be able to hit that amount in 10 years without sacrificing my personal expenses in life and still live a normal life.
7728  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: what is definition gambling in your mind? on: December 27, 2016, 11:09:47 AM
It's also called betting with a result in either a gain or total loss of wager, the money or asset. Some experts also considers some type of investment particularly the stock market and real estate investments a quasi-gambling activities that can be used as opportunities to gamble. Gambling is also a combination of excitement and level of involvement.
I will be very happy if I will become an expert in gambling, I guess of the total population of gamblers in the world it is only less than 1% are the expert of gambling and they can make a living in gambling which every gambler who aim for profit is wishing. This is a hard venture if investment is the basis so I would say it is totally an entertainment just to invite myself to play for fun.
7729  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: December 27, 2016, 10:59:03 AM
Memphis somehow win against big teams and struggle against the small ones

Really couldn't see such solid loss today against Orlando

What is wrong with them?

Probably tired? Or just isn't in game mode, it's a post-Christmas game so they're probably not at it too much.
i guess its just another bad luck for us mate i bet with them thinking that orlando is just easy for them to defeat now i realized why the odd is too good to be true 1.73 very nice only to find out that this bet will lose and its a blow out lose, got lucky with my second bet +7 for sixers only lose by 2 points against sac.
Sometimes that's the problem with us, we think a certain game is an easy bet and we do not do anymore capping games carefully, Orlando is not a good team offensively but with Ibaka, they were good defensively, they surely are another team this season and they have proven they can beat strong teams as well.
7730  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your reason to gamble? Fun or profit? on: December 27, 2016, 10:52:04 AM
i cant find fun in gambling
and i cant get profit too
so i do gaming just once and never do it again

Well that's better if you aren't really getting good result as you gamble that's the best thing to do, don't do gamble at all or just gamble whenever you want.

But as you said, you still gamble at once maybe you are still feeling some different thing when you gamble.

Once you realize that gambling is good for fun and profit, you will have the same feeling as others do gamble for fun.
It's always a good decision to quit once you feel you are not getting the result you expected in gambling, why still aggravate the loses if you can quit early? Honestly, I salute that decision to quit so we can avoid reaching the point that we are going to blame someday or gambling for ruining our life.

Wow! Your so very rich! I will suggest that you can hold the half of your BTC and the other half is for trading! Goodluck sir Smiley
You definitely does not understand the thread you are commenting, the title is obviously a question but the OP failed to put a question mark in the end. This guys is asking if it is possible to have BTC1,000, and the answer is always yes because we can make the best effort to achieve it using our skills and knowledge to execute our investment plan properly.
7732  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: December 26, 2016, 09:41:08 AM
Was Shocked to know that LAC lost to Lakers but then I realized that LAC are playing without Blake Griffin and Chris Paul. Who are their Superstars and Reddick got injured too.
Lol,;D what do you think of the Lakers, a garbage? If you can recall, they were able to beat the warriors at home even with the warriors in complete squad, I believe the Lakers are just being underestimated here my friend. Honestly, I took the Lakers moneyline and I even expected Paul and Griffin will be in the line up, that's how I trust Lakers my friend, and good thing today I cash out.
7733  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you bet on "Sports" games that you don't know? on: December 26, 2016, 08:12:23 AM
I am sure I won't bet on sports game that I don't know. Even if I had to bet on a game that I am not interested, atleast I will search the rank of both teams in the current standings before decided to make a bet. I don't want to bet blindly!

Of course, you can but probably that is not the right decision or not the best decision in your mind that may include a mistake of choosing a team. Aside from that we only bet to those team that we are in favor and do know how to play their games
Not all the time tells us that the favorites will win, there are games that you can see a value and without proper study or not knowing the game you cannot see that, it's the value is what a professional gambler is looking by the way. There might be a lot of games listed in the board, but there are only few games which has value that we need to choose.
7734  Economy / Economics / Re: Should I believe in Bitcoin ? on: December 26, 2016, 02:55:59 AM
After that when one of my fried joined it and made some good profits from it, he introduced bitcoin to me and after that I start taking interest in bitcoin, I am still feeling happy to join bitcoin as it is still good time to invest in bitcoin by believing it.
Yes most of the people in start facing the same problem. As for me when I start earning from the bitcoin when I joined a signature campaign, I was always thinking about how to withdraw my bitcoin income, but my local exchanges are really solve the problem and now I can deposit and withdraw my bitcoin very easily. 
That's the convenience when there's a local exchange in our country, it will certainly help the adoption process also because people will see that bitcoin is legitimate as there's a presence of exchange in an are which are compliance with the government rules, for us earners it gives us the advantage to withdraw anytime as we can easily link our wallet to our bank account for faster conversion of bitcoins to fiat.
7735  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The best way to quit gambling for good on: December 26, 2016, 02:44:42 AM
Environment gave a huge influence. If someone stay at a place with a lot of gamblers in it, then quit gambling is a very hard work to do. He/she has to move to other environment that have no gamblers at all. But, the final result will be determined by how hard is someone intention to quit gambling.
yes no doubt about this but i think the environment have more effect on teenagers and if you are not mature, but if you have full determinant person then you cannot be effected by the environment, as i have a lot of friends who love drinking they even drink in my car but still i never take a single sip from it,
We always do make decision in the end, despite of the temptation if we are very strong on what we believe we will never be tempted, it's all about the faith. Therefore when we are in gambling, we need to be totally matured enough not to fall for the trap, if we get ourselves addicted, we might regret it for the rest of our life.
7736  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is better? To gamble or to invest? on: December 26, 2016, 02:22:14 AM
It is right, all gambling sites are trust-able than investment sites. But i am not agree with you, that investment is risky more than gambling. You know, gambling is one and only risky way, no other one can comparative with it, and investment is really easy way. If you get a good or trust-able site than definitely you could make good profit. Otherwise, you could hold your bitcoins and make profit from them, no need to invest your bitcoins in any sites.
yes it is a fact that gambling is more risky as compare to trading, but i am not agree with you that all gambling sites can be trusted, i think there are a lot of people who are scam by gambling site, you must be more careful if you want to invest you money in online gambling casino, because they can easily scam you .
We have our own responsibility to carefully choose a site that we invest with, that does not happen in gambling sites alone as even in other form of investment we might be scam if we do not do diligent prudence when it comes to this things. It's not a game but a serious problem, so we must ensure we have all the knowledge and we really feel we are confident to invest before hitting it.
7737  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling problem on: December 26, 2016, 02:12:05 AM
I see there is so many people trying hard to stop gambling their money because they've losing so much
If you not ready to lose your money, then don't even try to gamble!

So how about people that already try it? Or even already addicted and being bancrupt because of gambling, do you any advice or sugestion??
There is always a solution for everything, your life does not end by the moment you get addicted with gambling. It is our will to change that would help us to get out the mess we make, in the first place, we are not force to gamble and we know how risky gambling is, so it is just right to ensure that we will be able to take care of our finances by minimizing our loses and enjoying gambling at the same time.
7738  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: December 25, 2016, 03:41:15 AM
I think gambling is soo addicting just because there is a chance that you can earn money.

You are totally wrong on this thing, you got absolutely no chance to win anything in the long run. In the short run you might get few in return depending on your wagered amount which is low amount as most people just wager with small amount and obviously jackpot doesnt really count in this. So if losing money is addictive for you then just keep on going ahead
I think what he is trying to say is we have a chance to win in gambling, and I agree with what he said, we all have a chance, otherwise gamblers will not patronize gambling for a longer time. The only thing that makes us lose is our chances is lower and sometimes we are indiscipline in such way that we do not gamble base on what the math should be but we do it based on what we feel is right.
7739  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can trading be considered as gambling?? on: December 25, 2016, 03:33:06 AM
There are a lot of traders out there but only few of them has the good knowledge about trading itself. Hence, for them, trading can be considered as investment. But, for traders that only has a small knowledge or trading based on his/her feeling only, trading can be considered as gambling.
Whether you consider it as investment or gambling, you will still root for profit, so what is important is the outcome of your venture. For sure, you have all the time to analyze your prediction is you are not being lazy when trading, and a trader would be more serious if he put bigger amount of money as his capital in trading and serious serious people have more success rate as they devote their time in trading.
7740  Economy / Economics / Re: Tell me your predictions about Bitcoin on: December 25, 2016, 03:17:09 AM
I was surprised a few days ago the price was around $800 and now the price has gone up to $ 900. is it the development of bitcoin is moving rapidly, or is this just the price manipulation of a person, but I hope that the future of bitcoin will be like gold

It has nothing to do with the development. It's a pure wave of panic buyers that is going through the market right now. People are just blindly buying as they only focus on the price to reach $1000 any time soon. They however don't realize that the current price is already overbought. Greed is taking over heavily right now. I wouldn't want to step in at current prices. What's wrong with just having some patience to see the price go down again instead of buying right now? I am fairly sure that for now, there isn't much steam left. Correction is imminent.

there is more people on the train than ever before ,record breaking metrics every week across the board
if the price retraces any signifigant amount  it will be snapped up in a flash .....
Nations are crumbling and people are turning to btc to keep their cash safe from devaluation and confiscation
It is true that, the deeper i know bitcoin the more i realize the potential of bitcoin, the fiat as we know will keep on dropping in the next year, we really need bitcoin to balance our life, bitcoin will save us from inflation and the control from government, we need to had investment that we can rely when we grow old and bitcoin is the answer
For that will happen, let's continue to educate ourselves here as in bitcoin there's plenty of opportunity to invest and to enjoy than in real life, that is coming from me, a bitcoin believer who has been here for many years and I can say that it has bring great benefits into my life, better than I experience in real life job and investment.
