Basically there's no restriction in gambling, so newbie are free to gamble as long as he has the money to gamble. Whatever the newbie's decision all we can do is to give advise as we also start as newbie.

My advise then is do not gamble what you can afford to lose.
7902  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What would happen if BTC was Banned? on: November 15, 2016, 02:17:35 PM
Many people would react or will be angered about banning bitcoin currency and it affects alot of peoples future and will get back to the paypal that very hard to earn/payout because bitcoin is the best online currency nowadays in the world, For me bitcoin affects alot of my life because i can get money when in emergency or when i need it badly thats why i don't want bitcoin to get banned.
Although bitcoin is best currency for now, we'd better don't make it the only hope. Until now there has not been a country that legalized bitcoin as official money. the best way is to stay real-world business
yes that is a fact that bitcoin is one the best crypto currency but still not a single country accept it as legal currency, but it is also a fact that still not a single country has banned bitcoin for their users, and that is the reason that people are using it continuously and without any fear.
We can't do anything if such country will ban bitcoin but since we are big and we can transact from country to country as we are world wide, there's still a big chance that we will be successful in the future, we are just only 1% of the total users now compared to the worlds population but look at how progressive bitcoin already.

Just remember that not everyone has the option to borrow money from friends, family, or a bank.
There are different definitions of "rich" and "poor".

If you have food, a home and access to the internet, you are doing better than half the people in the world already.

Actually there is a big and gap between being rich and poor, when it comes to borrowing and making a loan, rich are the most privileged to make it. But since governments are offering their citizens something that could make their life a little better, so I think that makes everything in the government fair to all, but still, if you are planning to loan in private companies, well, that's a different story and most probably they might not help you.

It does not matter if you are poor as long as you have the capacity to pay, meaning you have a source of income.  The only difference is the amount of money you will be able to borrow. Rich and poor have different lifestyle but they can be happy and that is priceless.

Just conserve your credibility and you will be fine when getting loans.
7904  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will Bitcoin be replaced by another cryptocurrency? on: November 15, 2016, 01:39:26 PM
There's always a big possibility that bitcoin will be replace by another crypto currency in the future since the success of bitcoin is based on the trust of the people and if the people loses it's trust with bitcoin, for sure another altcoins will be able to be popular.

I like to see ETH or monero to replace bitcoin, or whatever it is I will accept it.
7905  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you were rich, would you still gamble? on: November 15, 2016, 01:34:13 PM
Honestly guys, it's hard to say if I can still gamble when I am rich. Though I love to gamble at all but when you are in the situation you have to prioritize things up and I just wish when that time comes that I will be rich I will still have a time to gamble to entertain myself.

Definitely I am willing to lose some of my wealth just to have fun.

 Thats ok, for the sake of entertainment. Meaning you are not after to win aslong as you enjoy the game. Just like you are paying for the fun the game brings to you. Don't spend too much Smiley
I do not think anyone would not be after for the win, even though you are rich you are still after for the win because that would give you additional entertainment. The only difference with the rich people is that they can easily let go of their loses.
7906  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your reason to gamble? Fun or profit? on: November 15, 2016, 01:31:08 PM
Mostly for fun, I can't risk BTC if I am not ready to lose it. I usually deposit with the thought of losing it and if I do win it back, then I would just treat it as a complimentary prize.
Unexpected profits from gambling is always more surprising and more fun filled. I do see your type of gambling activity as a professional way of gambling like after experiencing the real face of gambling you must have chosen to gamble only for fun and accepting any outcome of it. I'm still going for gambling for profits and most of the times do get only disappointments.
well, for-profit gambling is indeed a very good purpose, but you must see that it is difficult if you do not juxtaposes it with fun, so if you want to make a lot of money from gambling, then you have to have fun - happy, because if you do not, you're just going to lose control of yourself and make all the money you have exhausted
Yeah maybe you're right. If we gamble just for profit it will make someone lose control and make can not control your emotions that can make out of money. In contrast if the gamble is also to have fun, it will make us do well gambling. Because basically gambling is a game that requires a profit, so it is better to use for fun.
You will not lose control if you are prepared for it, the thing is we are not uncertain of our aim in gambling. We think gambling is fun so we gamble for fun but in the middle of the session, we ten to change our aim therefore we lose our focus and that makes us lose.

What do you think guys?Do I have a chance to win this bets?  Grin I think they will shoot and shoot and shoot! CAVS vs RAPTORS

You can visit that odds on my Personal Text..


It's going to be a lopsided win for the cavaliers or a close game but still the cavaliers will win. Regardless of the outcome, I do believe that both will play defense just to test on how they can match each other again, they have something to prove as this two top teams met in the East Finals last season. Having said that, when it's an intense game, the total should be.....

UNDER

Good luck on your bet.

I might agree with UNDER for about, I think 40% since if they will play on defense more, it will be a low scoring game.

BUT on the other hand, both teams are capable doing both offense and defense on a high level at the same time. Raptors' DeRozan is almost averaging a 30+ points a game and Cleveland's squad are always on hot hands around the 3 point area that's why they achieved the record of having 10 succesfully three point shot in all the games they played this season.

60% OVER 40% UNDER
I would love to take the Under.. 60% Over is the public play and I am here to fade. This is a toss coin game but under this kind of situation you have to fade the public or fade your self, odd makers knows what they are doing. I fall for the trap many times but absolutely not this one.
7908  Economy / Economics / Re: panic selling on: November 15, 2016, 04:24:51 AM
I think that yesterday was a panic selling by some people because the china government has tried (or did) affected the bitcoin by tried to control it, but the price again went a little up.

I do not think that yesterday's events and fluctuations in the price of Bitcoin is just a panic. Surely there are some hidden reasons

The reason behing the panic is that there are rumors that the chinese government will implement some strict rules against bitcoin and they would start taxing them heavily in order to reduce the amount of money flowing out of the country and this news had a big impact in the price
I think if panic seling the case then I think it would make to lower prices, but today you can see that the price rise is very fast, and of course it's because of panic buying occurred. I do not know the reason why panic buying this happened but the important thing is panic buying will always give a nice effect for the price of bitcoin

panic selling would not help, some of bitcoin users was selling their satoshi in low price while they can en cash it on the right price. Do you think China taking over the Bitcoin market is a good thing?Bitcoin was designed to be a part of the future of money. And now China is definitely a part of Bitcoin’s future. Only time will tell if it is for better or worse.
Not for all of us maybe, if someone is doing panic selling then obviously it would not help him at all and those whales are just gonna buy cheap bitcoins.It's actually normal in the crypto world that panic selling and buying will happen as we are news driven, and any bad news will negatively affect the price.
7909  Economy / Economics / Re: Best way to manage money? on: November 15, 2016, 04:19:27 AM
The main rule about manage is never spend more then we earn, otherwise we will get into troubles very fast, credit its something easy to get and use, the problem is to repay and cover it, several people has a problem handling those.
I too truelly beieve in that. Always spend less than the amount we do earn and save the rest for the rainy days, don't try to spend more than what you earn because if you do so then I am wondering where you could get to cover for the extra you've spent.
Then it obviously will lead to getting loans. Loans and its interests will spoil our savings and our happily life too.

This is the ideal situation. But sometimes earnings are not enough for all the needs. Especially if they are unplanned. Then you have to look for additional sources of income
It's always good to do both, if you have a good income you still have to leave below your means, in that way you will be able to save money and might have a chance to invest in the future. The problem for most of us here is we change our lifestyle if we have receive a bigger income which is not good IMO.
7910  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: November 15, 2016, 04:08:21 AM
My choice is over/under points where over 186.5 points @1.55 for San Antonio Spurs vs Miami Heat. San Antonio Spurs is not winning by margin in most of the match it played recently. I will not tough that as my original plan to include at least one more option to maximize the profit but I let that without utilizing.
It's possible but when the spread is that high I cannot rely on the over points, when the score is low, spurs usually win the game, so this time I would go with the under. Sorry, brother I have to fade you.

For Spurs match, I would usually bet on under points. Their defense is strong and they have a tight schedule having to play 4 games in 3 days. There is a high chance Spurs will focus on their defense and just score enough to win.
Just enough to win the under. Final score (94 -90 ) under 186.5 on your bet.

Good job Spurs, play defense all the time. I love the under over and over again. Grin Grin
7911  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why I use Bitcoin ??? on: November 14, 2016, 12:11:41 PM
I use bitcoin because it is easy and convenient to use. I can pay some bills directly from my bitcoin wallet and not going to their stores. Bitcoin also has a huge fiat value amd continuously increasing over the years which motivates me to earn more. It also helps me to save and buy something i want.
Me too, that's the benefits of using bitcoin. I was able to top up my load with bitcoin and although admittedly it has only limited number of usage but that feeling of comfort is something you should thank of as bitcoin user. Also, when in gambling it's very convenience as you can gambling even 24 hours a day.
7912  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: is gambling worth to try for newbie? on: November 14, 2016, 12:05:57 PM
I don't think that it is a good idea to be gambling as a newbie in the bitcoin world. First off you may get scammed as you are a newbie and you don't know who are to be trutsed and who are not to be trusted. Also newbies often think of gambilng as a way to earn money when it is really the best way to lose money. Long term gamblers are the ones that have the highest chances of getting bankrupt.

Yes a newbie is never encouraged to try something that needs huge amount of luck. In case they are veteran gamblers then its okay otherwise gambling is a loss of newbies. On the other hand they should try to work around the forum and learn more about how to earn from the forum. They can try helping people in the forums and start to offer services for bitcoin. Gambling will only lead them to bankruptcy if they are not careful hence it is not recommended.
If newbie can easily accept there loses in gambling then it's good for them, when in gambling expect already that you will lose and what you will ask hope is that you will be able to enjoy the game.

By thinking that gambling is for entertainment, you will understand that you need to pay to be entertain and that's your losing bets.
7913  Economy / Economics / Re: Why have Bitcoin instead of cash? on: November 14, 2016, 11:53:33 AM
Bitcoin is easier to hide than cash. If you cross international borders with a suitcase full of cash then you will be questioned, maybe even detained.

Yeah i would rather agree, but i cannot trust some bitcoin wallets since it was prone to many attacks and surely we would lose all we got if we are been hit by those hackers or phisers thats why rarely stock in my wallet and put only when i need something to buy nor transact with, and even real cash will be controlled but you should remember also that theres a money transfer and i think that is more convenient for us rather than finding some bitcoin encasher center.
Well, there's no option mate but to trust. If your problem only is the vulnerability of hacking you can always update your wallet like 2FA to have it more secure, and in addition you can put your bitcoins in different wallets so you can minimize the risk of losing. It is just very simple, there's no need to worry as everything has a solution.
7914  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your reason to gamble? Fun or profit? on: November 14, 2016, 11:50:11 AM
some time ago i was gambling only for profit for a while and after some time i finally came to a conclusion that it is not possible to make any profit out of gambling or at least this is what my experience with gambling told  me. so now i am rarely gambling and if i do i do it for fun.
Yes at the beginning of my gamble is also aiming for a profit. But after I lost and did not benefit me realize that gambling is not for profit. Then I gamble for fun by limiting the amount of bets. I am aware of gambling is a game that requires luck, so better I gamble for fun rather than for profit. Most importantly if the gamble should have self-control in the betting order not to get into a defeat and loss.
Yeaaa just try to not get addicted to gamble with your past losts usually you want to chase it.
To gamble for fun is the real essential of gambling.
You will not get profit in the long term , it was a fact people must learn from their experience.

I agree with you mate. If we just gambler for fun and only use money that we can afford to lose at anytime, then there will no problem at all and we are just playing for fun - that is our ultimate goal, period. However, if our goal is like milking these online casinos and make a living out of it, then we better think twice because it will not happen most of the time.
Let's hope that every gambler wound understand that winning cannot be achieve in the long run if they do not have the skills in gambling which I believe only a gifted person can possess, therefore it's good to gamble for fun to minimize our loses and to appreciate the beauty of gambling.
7915  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: November 14, 2016, 11:46:36 AM
It is not your fault if you gamble. Gambling is a tool for amusement , fun and excitement. It will only become wrong if you will gamble your money first before you use it in important things. Most of the time if people gamble the money that should be use in important matters and they lose they will create more problems, and that is wrong.
I would agree with that and I believe there are a lot of us here who does not follow the principle to gamble what we can afford to lose, instead of putting our money intended for gambling, along the way we are tempted to put some money that supposedly for our daily needs and that makes a gambler wrong but not the gambling itself.

7917  Economy / Economics / Re: Should I believe in Bitcoin ? on: November 14, 2016, 02:41:34 AM
yes you should believe in bitcoin. Cause there is just a little risk here. bitcoin price is gradually keep going up.so you shouldn't tensed about loosing your money. However it is becoming popular day by day.
It's not a little risk, I know this because I lose money before. The fact that you are betting on the price movement of bitcoin which is volatile enough that it can go up or down based on the news in the market, it's not considered as small risk. Depends on how much your invest also, if you invested a bigger amount that's a bigger risk.

This made my day, it's good that you are here in the crypto as we are anonymous here and we will not know if you are handsome of not. To tell you, dabs is right, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, what matters is your attitude not your appearance. God will give you more blessing if you are a good person.
7919  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you Rich from Gambling? on: November 14, 2016, 02:31:30 AM
Well, so far I don't know anyone who is, I just see reports on the internet. But risk is the main reason why I prefer other alternatives to making money.
The reports you see in the internet are not real, they are just doing it for the sake of marketing, you should be wise enough to understand that if you fall for the trap your real nightmare will begin. Don't think gambling is a fun journey when you are here to intend money making.
7920  Economy / Economics / Re: How good are you at managing your money on: November 14, 2016, 02:26:11 AM
I'm not good in terms of managing money. When my salary comes to me i can't stop myself do some shopping and go home just a little cents left from my salary. That is why when it's payday i go home right away and give all my salary to my parents. I just left some amounts that i will use daily.

You need to pen down your expenditures in order to stay more managing regarding your salary, because if you don't keep any record for what you are buying or where you are spending your money then it will just be like wasting, keep records for your expenditures and take out the things which are not needed in coming month to manage some savings as well.
Definitely that's what is missing of some of us here, we do not have the ability to track down our expenditures hence we cannot manage our money properly. Monitoring is very vital and that can be done if we treat our self as like we are having our own business, besides it's still us who will benefit if we manage our finances well.
