Winning and earning is definitely possible but it's also inevitable that you'll lose money in the process. It would depend on how responsible you are with your winnings to avoid regrettable results.if i were to win big with any gambling sites or casinos's i'd think twice or thrice about betting it again. Most likely i'd keep the winnings that i've had and if i want to continue gambling, i'd start again with he exact amount i started before i won. Then same process. If i've exhausted all my capital then i'd leave. The winnings i made would be saved in my btc wallet to be used for future tradings
The fact that you cannot control the outcome in gambling, you must have another plan when things does not go on what you are expecting. We all aiming for profit but there are times we are really unlucky, hence, we will be tested on how to react in such situation. If we are smart enough we will limit our loses and stop.

There are greater times when I gamble I am unlucky, I don't know about you guys. That's my luck. But when I do get to profit and I reached a target profit, I just cash out and never look back. That's my strategy, though I seldom was able to use it. If I lose my bankroll I just stop and also never look back on my losses. Chasing losses is the number one cause of losing every penny a gambler has.


Luckily your mindset is good since yoy cannot lose in that instance and same as me also if i win, i would surely let the day passes by before i gamble on the site i play since i believe if i play back i would turn out losser in the end of the day for it. And actually we can't blame those gamblers who choose to chase their losses since they are also the one whos gonna win such huge money from it since they can afford to risk their luck.
Yup, we don't have rights to blame them those who chase their losses, we don't know that lose money how much important for them. But that method is not right sometimes if we are lucky we will get back our loss in same game, if we don't have luck then we will lose more money. All gamblers know this truth, but still, people will make this mistake again and again. I don't know how to stop that kind of players.
Dont bother on this thing since we cant really change this thing on gambling world and this thing would really happen again and again.We cant stop it thats why for us people who knows and have strong realization on consequences of playing gambling do really have an advantage compared to those person who still plays and keep chasing on their losses.
7922  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you can control your self when playing gambling? on: January 18, 2017, 01:31:55 PM
When I start gambling pre planned then I can have control on my gambling but if I just start gambling at the free time of me and do not plan from the beginning then I continue to gamble. But this do not happen mostly. I often plan from the start and so have control on me while gambling.
very honestly i have no control over my emotions while playing gambling

Yeah. too difficult to control whether you are winning or losing. As I have told before, emotions are the gamblers worst enemy...

It will always be our archenemy because its hard to be calm when we are in losing streak and we just keep on betting on rage like there's no tomorrow and craves to recover the losses that we got. And when the time of winning streak is coming, almost the same thing is happening we are comfortable that our winnings won't be gone easily.
Thats why it is very important to take advantage of the situation knowing when to stop from your limitation i guess we can hear millions of times coming from a different gamblers perceptions but in reality they always commit mistakes because of lack of self control.
You won't last in gambling if you do not have that self control, it's necessary as we are playing with risk and we are using our own money. It's like we are venturing into a business and we aim for profit, so we must treat it seriously and employ our technique effectively. Until we learn how to control ourselves in gambling, we should not engage with it using big amount.
You wont really last since you we be bust up in a short period of time only if you cant really control yourself and your temper then for sure its a sure loss.In my case i cant tell that i could able to control myself since its really hard to control when it comes out if you have strong self control then its better.
See just play gambling games casually, invest only how much you can afford, and Then you can easily get control on your play. If you take your loss serious and play back to gain your loss, it's wrong. This will make you lose control on your play. So never chase your loss you will get hands on your control.
Chasing loses is really a bad bad move since it would really play you even more and would deposit even more money to chase those and hoping to win it back but it doesnt work all the way but instead it would really put you down even more and as you said we should play the amount we could afford to lose.

Heh, 0.82 BTC

https://blockchain.info/tx/a2965935f7fa7ef03f9e04e8874cf5c02ce80e1b725fdbfed3de367892e78754

Pretty good profit from just 0.05.

Well, good luck everyone. I'm gonna aim for 10 btc  Grin

Gambling end results depend only on luck so you should be playing it only for your fun and not put any target to reach or chase your losses. Those two are very dangerous things to do in gambling because you may lose quite a lot of money in that process. Today you may be lucky so winning but doesn't mean that you will be lucky every day. Always gamble carefully....
Listen to this suggestion and hes right you must be careful on playing gambling because anytime could be your unlucky moment and those big winning of yours might be lose again and even would include your capital.Its better to secure your profits and get out and play another day.
7924  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you can control your self when playing gambling? on: January 17, 2017, 05:12:09 PM
I can't control it, i always greedy to get more and more but bad luck always busted and get empty balance
Whereas i have planning to control and want to win small amount, control our emotional at gambling site is very difficult
Then don't deposit big amount or quit gambling if you cannot do that, it's not for all dude especially if you have a problem with controlling yourself. It's the only way to be safe, safe from losing more than what we can afford to lose, so as a responsible gambler you must learn that.
nothing wrong with gambling itself actually if you can treat it properly. i mean to make gambling as a way to have fun , get an exclusive entertainment . not to earn money which impossible to do that as our human nature always greedy no matter you won and especially when you lost you would just go mad gambling uncontrolled.
Greediness is really part of human nature as you said that's why people do always have aims on making money on playing gambling that's why they made wrong decisions while they are playing.Gambling should really be treated as an entertainment and not used or treat as money making because this is impossible to happen.Self control is a huge advantage to avoid addiction and play even more.

greediness still come form time to time.

we all play from different gambling sites and different games as well. i'm only one dice so every time i successively lose 3 times, i stop for awhile and be right back after an hour or two. its some kind of a practice for me and every time i come back i win. not sure if anyone has noticed this too when they play.




This method is also good but the results is still by chance because we wont know when our luck would come and we could able to identify it after each bet if we are lucky or not.Its really a good practice to make some breaks after some losses because you would able to stop your greediness and the burst emotion.
7925  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Fixed soccer matches information. on: January 17, 2017, 04:39:11 PM
I think this is totally fake and just the OP is highly confident on those bets because anyone fixing matches won't be selling them for a mere few dollars and at least not hare publicly for free.
Even he is not sure what the out come is and no one really can when it comes to gambling,he is just misleading people with a thread like this and inside information is really helpful if you can avail but it is not that easy to get those.I have seen threads like these earlier claiming inside information and just does not respond providing further information.
This is really misleading and same as your i already saw this kind of thread which is claiming that they know a particular game is fixed and i dont know where they get those informations which is very very confedential unless if you have friend or connection in the inside but if not then this is just a normal guessing for me.
You are right most of time these type peoples have no information just gone with some analysis and try to scam I check many threads like this and all of them gone end very poorly few tipster here working good but they are not giving any inside bet
If there is an inside news regarding on a fixed match then i could say that would be a premium tip and would really cost you money if you know such informations and as you said people would really not tend to expose it so easily on public and instead they would bet just for themselves.

7927  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Question about bonuses on: January 17, 2017, 03:34:55 PM
My question is what are the chances of a gambler in unlocking the deposit bonus offered by a bitcoin casino? I know it's low but what are the specific numbers? Also what is the second best game in unlocking your bonuses after slots?
Theres no specific answer on this since no one could able to predict or give numbers because it just depend on how you play it and how much luck do you have.Yes slots is the game which i think could possibly unlock the wager requirement on that bonus and the next thing on my mind is dice.
7928  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: January 17, 2017, 03:05:10 PM
Gambling is addictive in two ways to be describe.You are getting addicted on the fun you feel or entertainment you gained from playing it thats why you want to play even more without minding the money that being spent and the other way or reason is that you are getting addicted on the easy money scheme thats why you would really tend to play and hoping for money on playing it.
7929  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Excuses on: January 16, 2017, 06:10:20 PM
I am not a person who are addicted with gambling, I do gamble but it's only for fun and I think when time comes that you will have to use others money, you are already making a bad move, regardless of the outcome it's still very risky as when you succeeded in your first attempt, for sure you will do it again and since we do not win all the time, you will only realize it that it's wrong when it happen.
I agree to you, If you do that trait Im surely that you are addicted on playing gambling. You should know the limit of  your funds that you are using in playing gambling. You shouldnt risk the money that is reserved for something.
Its indeed a habit of a gambling addict since these kind of actions is not normal anymore because you are already tending to use others money to play gambling and its very risky because what if those money all lost in the end? You will really suffer debt even more which would lead your life misserable.
7930  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin saving on: January 16, 2017, 05:44:58 PM
Is anyone in here familiar with the 52 weeks money challenge?
Since it is new year I've decided to take that challenge as a refresher and to try if I can save money using that pattern.
Question now is do you think saving with bitcoin will work? I you are familiar with the 52 week challenge it is where your daily deposit in your saving will have an increament of which amount you started in week one. Since bitcoin is so volatile do you think i'll save more if it is in fiat or in bitcoin?
Im familiar with the 52 week challenge since i do use it on my binary and forex trading on which i follow and list the amount i have started and computing the profits on a particular week and should make compounding until it increases as the weeks passed.Its somehow difficult but you would really be challenge since you would not spend the money that you are earning.
7931  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How To make own crypto currency on: January 16, 2017, 05:27:44 PM
Since some times ago, I'm very interest with some project make a new altcoin with owner application. I read on Github, but still don't understand about it, so who anyone can explain to me as simple as possible, so it'll easy to understanding. Because, I want to make another altcoin but this basic in use for daily activities, not just for make altcoin with many bullshit promise.
If you dont know how to read those on Github then creating a new crypto coin would really be hard for you since you would really need knowledge on programming and developing skills in order to do so.If you still dont have these characteristics or requirements then you should not bother at all on creating one.
7932  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Everyone looses in the long run on: January 16, 2017, 05:14:05 PM
No. There is a certain percentage out there who play skill-based games like poker or sports betting with +EV and win in the long run. Did you ever hear about poker pros winning $ million?

But one would have to discern between skill based gambling and gambling in the classic sense (casino machines like slot machines, and other games such as dice and so on, which are 100% random)


You can't include poker on there. Poker requires a certain skill. Im not sure what amount of poker is luck and what mount of poker is skill, but what is clear is, dice, slots and the rest, are 100% luck.
Gambling games does really have categories and as you mentioned there are games which require extreme luck like dice and slots other games which doesnt need any skills or knowledge but for some games like spotsbetting and card games it is somehow gives you an edge or increased you winning rate does depend on how good you are.
7933  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: January 16, 2017, 04:56:20 PM
. I think to gamble in a smart way is only not being greedy even if we bet big or small. Being contented with our profit is enough to play gambling in a smart way.

The right way is to stop whenever you feel that you are getting profit already. You need to realize that we are playing to get profit so even if it is only a small amount, it is still much better than losing so lets just take it and leave. I personally had done this few times and I do think that I ended up in profit although it is not much

Yes that will be one of the smartest decision ever to stop when you already earn some amount whether it is small amount.

But as we know most of us are too greedy enough and we are not contented for winning smaller amounts.

So we tend keep on gambling again in order to win bigger amount which is not a smart move because it can lead us into losing a lot.
Correct,if we saw already that we are gaining a small percentage on our bankroll then its better to stop and call it a day and you are right people are really greedy and they dont want to have small winnings on a particular day thats why they would decide to continue and lose up in the end.
7934  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know when to stop? on: January 16, 2017, 04:43:47 PM
I stop gambling, when i feel that i am unlucky.
Because skills without luck probably mean lost, Even who have skills in prediction, one day they lose. No one who can win forever.
Yes what are you said is right but if you stop when feel unlucky it's mean you has lost some money maybe if you keep playing can win even though i'm not sure too.

you can afford stop when your loses??

Do you believe it is your luck? I think everything is a mathematics, and luck is a magic word that means the privilege that is said for winning in the gambling. Am I wrong?


I don't believe with mathematics when it comes to gambling. Let's say you just calculated everything and you know the statistics and probability but it is not going to work daily because you have said that luck is magic. And we know that magic is something that suddenly happening without any trace and comes out from nowhere.
to me actually i have set a planing for my gambling, i play gambling in a limit and reach to that limit although some time i exceed my limit but still i can say that for most of the time it really help me in controlling myself in gambling. 

That's a good help for you and I hope that it really works for you. Because there are gambler who manage to gamble and doesn't sets limitation when they play. So they end up always everything that they've got. And by setting a limit to gamble for a day is a good way to know when you are going to stop to reduce chance of losing a lot.
Self control would really help you out in your gambling career i guess if you are truly fan of playing it then you should really know how to limit yourself and setting up your certain amount of money to play on a particular day and if you are already experiencing winning then better to stop and call it a day and play for tommorow again because there are instances that your winning will vanished by an instant.

7936  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: January 15, 2017, 04:26:21 PM
Yep knowing to stop is a key part of gambling, if you know when to stop you have already made 50% of the job in betting game, if you cant control your impulses you will get constantly fucked by the odds, so you must run with your profits as soon as possible. Oh and when it comes to trading is the same, you must set stop losses and know when you fucked up and run with the money.
smart way to gamble can you find if you can control yourself in the game. but, it is very difficult to do that, in fact very few people who can do that. many people who try it, but in the end they got stuck in a gambling game. if you want to try, try to use the number of bets a little, but do not let you be tempted to keep playing, because it is common.
I guess things that could make you play smart in gambling is when you can get profit in the end.
I mean not only luck determine you to win or not , but also your intelligence.
To have a self-awareness that you won't get a winning forever so you'll just gamble ocassionally.

Gambling in a smart way is possible if you are just betting with low numbers but I do not see any other smart thing about it..


its a smart way that we can do but its not makes us to get much of profit while we only use low amount for betting. but i think its equal with what we spend in gambling, the more we make a bet, the more risk and opportunity to get high amount in winning but remember, we can not always win in gambling so be careful.

Indeed and I think overall its not really possible, if you think about the fact that gambling smart is with low amounts its not profitable at all anymore.
- I think we need to determine the purpose of gambling (Fun or Profit)
- Keep calm, control yourself, stop playing when losing too much
- I think the smartest way is not playing, no gambling will not lose
Your third point is easier said than done besides, there are many people that enjoy gambling and they never get addicted or anything so for those persons gambling is just a way to get some fun and there is nothing wrong with that.
Theres really nothing wrong on playing gambling as long you know how to control your greed and emotions which causes for you to become and gambling addict.Gambling is made for entertainment and shouldn't be treat as a source of income because its really an impossible thing to happen.If you don't want to lose money then better not to play at all.
7937  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know when to stop? on: January 15, 2017, 04:10:01 PM
I stop gambling, when i feel that i am unlucky.
Because skills without luck probably mean lost, Even who have skills in prediction, one day they lose. No one who can win forever.

Well I think that can be a good option but not really safe, I set a limitation per day and if I hit that limit I will stop for mostly a days with gambling.

How can you identify if you are feeling unlucky? But sometimes our instincts are true and sometimes not and setting a limitation per day is a good strategy to stop if you almost fill that limitation. The same thing with what I do when to stop, when I feel uncertain and when I lost everything, that is when I stop gambling.
just wondering if you  know that you are lucky  how far are you risking your money? i think its really hard to say that but considering that you have that instinct maybe you should try betting big amount so before you quit you already gain a lots of winnings, i'm just thinking though but sure thing gamble without luck is nothing but to lose.

There is really no way to identify if you are feeling lucky for a certain day. And there is no more argument because most of the gamblers are just losing in the end, no matter how good we are in a certain game. There are the days that we are lucky and not, I guess it is just better to stop and trust your feelings, because its your money not others.
You are correct even how good we are on a particular game we would definitely experience lose because we cant guarantee on when our luck comes to us since we know that gambling game does really require luck in able to win and gain profits.The best way to stop is having a strong discipline into yourself and you know how to step out when you are already profiting.

Having a discipline is good but the question is, can we implement that discipline when we are experiencing a tough loss? There are certain measurements that we need to consider about discipline, because we can be in rage any time, any moment. That's why as long as you are still on the right mind, just quit for the day and trust it all with what you feel.
When we let our emotions control us then discipline would really not possible because you will really let your emotions control you but there are people who are disciplined enough to themselves on playing gambling which they know on what they are doing.Feelings or instincts might help but not all the time.
7938  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dice Game , Work the longest without loss ? With which strategy ? on: January 15, 2017, 03:54:43 PM
Basebets would depend on your bankroll though on 0.1 I could actually made settings:
Base bet:0.0000001
Multiplier:60x
Chance: 6.67%
% on loss: 1.3

It may work for sometime but I didn't use it anymore since it deplete all my bankroll in an instant Smiley
7939  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to quit Gambling for good? on: January 15, 2017, 03:25:48 PM
You can start by reducing the intensity of playing gambling. you should have a target every week. all it does require a long time.
however I am sure this will be successful, we are a little bit left to play gambling to seek better terms.

I don't think that reduce intensity is a good way as it's not like drugs addicted.
Family and friends that could keep watch on you and give advice.
Of course your intention to quit gambling for good is the most important.
Help from others would be useless if you don't help first yourself because if you don't have intention on quiting gambling then they are just wasting their time on convincing you to quit gambling.Yourself could be the only one to help yourself also that's why the first step is setting our mind to quit gambling completely without turning back again.
7940  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Controlling your temper in gambling on: January 14, 2017, 04:53:51 PM
I am agree with your all points, especially, the third one is suit me. Actually, i always play gambling with a small capital. Because if i lose than i can take care myself, but if i win than it is too good for me. But in gambling we should control our greedy than definitely temper will be on control.     

Greed is like a devil, there are almost everybody but we should be just like a computer software, that is, our lower bound and upper bound

Nice illustration mate but it is somehow exaggerated.Just Joking,Greed is really present on every person on the world because every man do have intentions of loving money since it do really have a value and we know we could able to buy anything if we do have money that's why some play gambling because of this aim but most of the time temper does really control you if you don't met you expectations on your game.
