I doubt that you'll get it back. Maybe another patron got it and not the restaurant itself. If that happened don't expect to get it back. Or the restaurant people split it among themselves, that's also possible.

Consider also the cost of shipping and that reward you are offering. It might be more expensive than the items you lost.
If those things are very important lets say its included with his legal documents and stuffs then it would still really worth to pay up the expense but if those are just things cost $100 in total then i guess its not really wise to get those things back seeing on the money you will spent on getting it back maybe those things are important.
8042  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What would you do with your winnings? on: June 20, 2017, 06:44:28 PM
I will definitely use it as well as I want, the income I earn comes from my own victory, I never withdraw the initial capital and if it needs to keep growing. I am not the type who likes in glamor life, I prefer to keep it in a bank or other business.
That's good not to withdraw the capital amount. Withdrawing it will cause a quit to gambling or take a break. As said making use of the earned bitcoin into something as a business or saving to multiply for future usage is good move and different users have different usage plans.
just think about this , when you have cashed out the winning amount and keep the initial deposit but then in the next day you lost all the initial deposit. what you'll gonna do? make another deposit with the previous amount that has been cashed out?

the circle of loser are real in gambling . i think it is reasonable to say make money through gambling continuously are a difficult task. better to cash out the whole amount and forget gambling forever.
Easy to say but its really hard to do it and as you speak when we lose up our capital we would normally deposit back on those profits that we have made on those capital which means on the end you will still end up losing it all.Useless right? In my case i would cashouted it all and buy the things that i do like because its much better to secure something that you can use rather than losing it on a thin air.
8043  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: June 20, 2017, 06:11:53 PM
theres is no such strategy

you need to research 101% details all of it

last 10 games

how that team/player plays

injuries

roster change

all of the factors affect who will you bet on
I think it wouldnt help. There will be chances that we will be lose our game but it is part of the game. A smart way gaming is always save your profit away from your deposit when you get a profit,  withdraw it and play it again. But dont pass your limitation you will be greedy of you do that be contended in all your winnings.
Okay you do have the point but lets say that you lose on the first game you do play then what would you secure? You didnt still profit and on this kind of situation we should really be wise on limiting our loses inspite on playing again to profit to breakeven then better to pass up and play another day.Dont force too much on oneself because once you forced it then you will end up nothing.
8044  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Pacquiao VS Horn (Boxing) on: June 20, 2017, 05:39:51 PM
Horn if he landed a lucky punch but with experience, skills and speed, I think Pacquiao can win this.  Though I agree that he should be retiring on fighting inside the ring, he can still participate in boxing sports through particpation in promotion and supporting talented young Filipino boxers by teaching them his skills and footworks.
This is my first time hearing about Hom but as others saying here that hes younger than pacquiao but frankly speaking i will bet on pacquiao on this one. World champion versus to a younger boxer.I dont really like to underestimate someone but considering on the skills and experience pacquiao do have the edge but who knows? A lucky punch would end the story and expectations of many people who do support pacquiao;D
8045  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Worst mistake in gambling on: June 20, 2017, 03:43:07 PM
Pursuing losses is probably one of the easiest mistakes for this, until finally losing all the money and then realizing it if we have made a big mistake.
lol...
This is the most common thing for us gamblers on which we would only seen our mistake when we are already losing money on playing gambling. Worst mistake usually when we lose money and we didnt even heard someone complaining on their winnings,right? That is why we should learn on our past mistake so that we can able to avoid the things we suppose needed to be avoided.
8046  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and Superstition on: June 20, 2017, 02:17:07 PM
I have seen some gamblers doing really crazy things while they gamble, but it didn't bring them any luck at all.
I don't believe in superstition, nothing can change outcome, not some crazy items, wearing the same clothes etc, gambling is just math game with odds against you, nothing more.
Maybe you do not believe in superstition but many peple say sometimes believe in superstition can help you a little. I'm one of those people who believe and believe it or not, I've won just because i believe in superstition. for example, players from club that win champion league, one of the will win fifa ballon d'or. last year i won bet ronaldo win ballon d'or and for this years, let see.
I do agree with you sir i am also a superstitious believer so everytime i went or play gambling i use to believe what i wear i have won two times with that same day also and i will advise that if superstition has a good effects and result why not but if not it is bad stop it and play with your specific stratedgy . It is only simple right don't make your life miserable overdo the things that wont work on you.
we do really have beliefs on our own life on any situation and its not bad to follow them as long you dont hurt anyone on doing it.Talking about tshirt colors i think it does affect on other people but for me doesnt work thats why i dont really bother to think up on those tshirt colors because i really believe no matter which color you wear if luck isnt on your side you will surely lose up no matter what.
You got some point there ,having different opinions is good to hear but asidr from the luck the experience and the superstitions that will bring confidence to gamble is good .And wearing a coloured lucky t-shirt of a superstition will set your mood and mind to a good play bets. Luck is needed but ofcourse it will depends on the person how he will use it when he feels lucky that day.
Being confident to play does really help you when you are playing gambling because your mind is conditioned enough to make good bets and strategies on playing but a reminder dont get too confident because once gambling will break your expectations then it does really hurt too much and frustrate you in the end of the day.
The reason why we are being frustrated is due to our wide expectations that we always think of winning in gambling game which resulted to lossing your investments. Even having that best strategies it doen't guarantie you a bigger chance of wins, and also with lucky superstitious belief; there's no connection with your luck of an entire day of gambling activity. Gambling is a game of chance so enjoy the rest of the days without any regrets no matter what happens; but most important is you have fun.
If you do strongly believe on those superstition that you will have luck today on playing gambling then losing the game will give you the opposite feeling and you are right even if you do have the best strategy and the best superstition belief you would really destined to lose up when luck isnt on your side which means you will end up frustrated.
8047  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Games and features of a good gambling site? on: June 19, 2017, 02:35:55 PM
I think better to use altcoin rather than bitcoin, especially for new casino online because there are pretty much competitors out there.
For the games, it will be interested if there are a kind of PvP game. Dice, poker, blackjack, sports betting is must, but it's need more catchy eyes interface with smooth motion.
Make a unique betting system will be more a plus point, something like smart contract.
Nope, better to put bitcoin always since there are gamblers would really use up bitcoin instead of altcoin but its much better to have this feature which you can able to play gambling games with the use of altcoin its a better option than nothing at all.Yes, there are lots already of competitors on the market which we would really plan careful on what game we would create that isnt already on the market and should be unique.
8048  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What is the Best Trading Strategy You Use for Cryptocurrency? on: June 19, 2017, 01:51:50 PM
What do you think is the best strategy in identifying the trade in cryptocurrency world. RSI is not that very effective. I also use MACD for normal trading studies. The morning and evening star is a good indicator too.
Ive been trying to use these technical tools but i would really say that these indicators doesnt work anytime you do make use of it but still a good tool on knowing the particular trend of a coin.Unlike on forex or stocks these technical analysis would really be helpful but on cryptoworld is different since pumps and dumps do happen on unexpected events.
8049  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do winning and losing gamblers have different personalities or habits? on: June 19, 2017, 12:35:09 PM
Gamblers have one common personality when it comes to gambling which is greediness and in times of loss is frustration and rage/emotional.Depending on a certain gambler you are there are people who can able to manage loss instead of whining or short tempered they do handle it with ease to limit themselves on playing.
8050  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can gambling help you with your life? on: June 19, 2017, 10:46:44 AM
There are times in one's life that you will need a quick cash to do something very urgently, most of the times people resort to gambling and they may win the money that they need. This kind of scenario happens for some time to time but not always, at times you end up losing and being in debt.
Yes it comes to my life too that i have a money but it doesnt enough to support my needs. Then  i try my luck in gambling and fortunately i have won a big price, and then i use my winning price for my daily needs and for the needs of my family. It helps me so much, thats why i dont want to quit gambling because it helps  me a lot.
Good for you that is nice one i maybe you are soo lucky because you won everytime you gamble but don't be greedy gambling is not good to person have addicted on gambling you can be ruin your life.
I was amazed that there are some people who have changed their life because of gambling and making it as a source of income to sustain its family needs is very amazing indeed and this is just really a rare case in my own view.People that can able to make money to support their needs was very lucky that he can able to do that thinking off that gambling works on opposite way which is losing money.
8051  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin reduces unemployment on: June 19, 2017, 03:28:26 AM
I think in the presence of bitcoin will reduce unemployment, because searching for bitcoin also requires hard work and creativity, and competitiveness in bitcoin is also high almost similar to work in the real world

What is your opinion this time?
It doesnt really derease the number of unemployed in a certain country since its not been considered to put in statistics but in our own view we do have already our own work which means it does really patch up the job that we seek for and the earning we do like.There are might people do have stable jobs that recieves bitcoin as a payment but this thing is not suitable or present at all bitcoin users.
8052  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What keeps you coming back??? on: June 18, 2017, 06:31:25 PM
I understand your point but honestly gambling is more associated with big losses than wins and the odds are, of course against you, otherwise the casino would not survive. Then again one does not have to stick to gambling to earn money. You can play the EV+ games and sports betting which are more profitable. Then also you can try bitcoin vs fiat trading which is much better than gambling in my opinion.

Of course it is much better in making profit but I dont have fun trading. Some people dont want to gamble but they enjoy trading. I am not different than them , I just have different preference . I want to enjoy as much fun as I can that is why I keep playing because I feel fun when I play and everyone has their own taste on this

Trading is not fun game mate, and one more thing trading is not a game like gambling, so it will not give you any entertainment. Only you can get knowledge from this trading. You will know how the market will work and it will help you to do fiat currency trading. Other than this don't expect anything from trading. You are looking for fun and entertainment then for you gambling is suitable.
Trading can be still fun but not the same of fun we do feel on playing gambling because on trading its really a serious matter because we do make trades and we would really like to execute profitable ones.If we are serious then chances of getting good trades and making money is there and thats should how we act. Gambling is just really for fun nothing more.
8053  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is better? To gamble or to invest? on: June 18, 2017, 04:40:03 PM
Even both being risky at gamble you dont know when to stop, while with an investment you do have set the budget you will put at risk, i do believe now its a good moment to make any project live, the sucess will be connected with the promotion and the quality.
With gambling and investment you can set your budget and i would not rather risk my money for gambling ,instead i would allot it for investment in a good project and it gives you the profit like no other investments and i am happy with the experiences i have.
Both are risky but imo it would depend on what you have a better understanding of
if you have skill or luck in gambling then you can get a profit from gambling then other users will see investing in other projects that promise to pay predefined profits after a certain period as a better choice to invest despite the risk of getting scammed.
Both do really have the risk on losing money but if we compare them on the level of risk then gambling would really have more risk than investing because on investment we can somehow assure ourselves that theres a profit for longer runs but the risk is we cant be sure on when it would last and if we select the right investment.
8054  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Getting started with sports betting! on: June 18, 2017, 03:07:47 PM
   I plan to start with sports betting. I know there is many threads about betting on sports here, I read most of them, but I`m interested in which site have the minimal bets.
   -Cloudbet.com
   -Sportsbet.io
   -Nitrogensports.eu
   -Betcoin.ag
   -Lunarbets.eu
   -Directbet.eu

   All this sites are looking great on first look, but I don`t wish to register on each one of them just to check how much is the minimal bet. I also wish to ask how much is your minimal bet per match or per betting slip (did I say this good? I`m not so familiar with some sportbetting terms in english, when I stuck on something I will ask for specific words or terms in the future), and do you bet more on goals, half-times, results, or name it yourself.
   I`m looking forward to read everything you have to say about this.
 
Directbet.eu has already closed its doors and should be removed on the list.If you are really newbie on sports betting then you would really encounter different terms and betting styles but its much better to create your own way on betting and analysis rather than asking others way of betting.They do really have different minimal bet and i would recommend among the list is nitrogen.
8055  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dice Websites on: June 18, 2017, 02:29:31 PM
Hi, all. I am, of course, a newbie and I don’t know much about Bitcoin gambling. I was wondering what websites that you would suggest gambling with. I would prefer a good website for playing dice. Thank you.


Welcome to this Gambling world with Bitcoin.I would say that using bitcoin on gambling would really be easy unlike on traditional fiat gambling.Fast deposits and Fast withdrawals and on the thing you are asking there are lots of Dice Sites in the market which is reputable,they do have their own styles and promotions but still on the same game.This would really depend on your taste,they do have different interface.Just go to gambling section you will surely see what i mean and i forgot, try to click my signature.Its one of the most reputable gambling site in the market.
8056  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you think about Casino with 0% Edge? on: June 18, 2017, 08:09:19 AM
There was similar topic few months ago and I am not buying this 0% edge story.
Casino is making profit because of that edge, if there is no edge than casino won't make profit.
Answer is in ann thread: black jack & sport bets. So, it's not 0% after all.


It's possible to have a zero house edge casino if it's a PVP casino (player versus player). All the money goes from one or another gambler, but this way the house won't make profit, so it's hard to know if someone would spend time running a service like this, making profit only from withdraws and maybe deposits. But for gamblers it would be a different concept of online gambling.
i'm not sure if someone would be willing to do that mate, its a problem because no one would spend their time and money just to earn a little while you can create a house which you can put on some investment and will be able to earn big if many players will played.

But running a site without house edge you can earn on placing ads from other gambling sites if your site becomes popular. PVP casino without any house edge would be a popular site among gamblers because many of them think that it is the house edge what beats them.
Depending on the games you do have and the interest of people who putted in on that site. This might be possible but considering the expenses on building and maintaining a gambling site i dont hink that ads earnings would be enough it would really not sufficient. House edge would really be important because this is where do gambling sites do make their money.
8057  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: That moment when you buy 1BTC at $2500 on: June 16, 2017, 09:59:11 AM
If you bought on the dip of 2100+ for sure you are now making money because price of bitcoin now is surging up again we are now on 2300 which means that was an instant $200 for you and even climbing.I do regret that i didnt buy on those times of dips for i dont have extra money but still its okay since price do really dip sometimes on bitcoin,i will wait for that moment again.
8058  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dice game strategy? on: June 16, 2017, 08:44:37 AM
I tried diffirent strategy.
experience show me that martingale strategy is not good for dice..
long term = loss.
need use low coefficient of winnings and big amount of bets..
Low coefficient? You might means about low multiplier right? Such as x1.1 x1.2 etc.
I don't think it can be worth to you to try , as you said it won't work in the lo g run.
Dice really good when you do it for the short time profit when you want it in the long run , the winning feel like temporarily.
After having personal experience, only people got to know that no strategy will work in a dice game. This is purely luck base game. Martingale strategy and other plans are just one time it will work not every time. To implement this method we need big bankroll, and there is no confidence that we will get back our lost money. So this dice game is only for time pass just invest a small amount and play for some time and enjoy the game. Don't waste your money to using any strategies.
I am not saying that use any strategy in gambling is just wasting your time really.
But more to how dice game is so dangerous could make you easy to get heated to make a hurry decision.
And noone can make it profitable without any exceptional , get to used to it , dice is the bad way to gamble your money.
This is why that dice games should really be treated as an entertainment not on the purpose of making money because you will only got frustrated when you do suffer lose on playing gambling. making strategies do really entertain me sometimes but all that i do is using them and testing them on the amount that i can afford to lose up.
8059  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When did you start gambling? (Because of BCT Promotion?) on: June 16, 2017, 07:27:50 AM
I start gambling offline few years ago.
I like video slots and poker. also I remember sigma video poker, this is easy and cool game.
After I tried online gambling this is nice too. Bitcoin for gambling is good, can't track me..
Ive started gamblin when i saw it in a social media then i try it and win on that game, since then ive started to get addicted on it, when i have an extra money i will bet it and play it, and i think i am lucky because ive always win the game, im happy that i have found gambling using bitcoin. It makes me feel happy and contended.
Gambling with bitcoin is the most convenient way of having fun, I guess every gambler must know how to use bitcoin
as a tool to gamble, it will increase the adoption and it can help the gamblers as well.

True, bitcoins has opened a new world of possibilities when it was created. A lot of gambling sites has built itself around it and there have been a lot of capabilities that were only discovered when it was used for gambling. Bitcoins has really reinvested a lot of things and that includes gambling.
Bitcoin does really contribute new innovations on some things and as you said gambling was included on that one.It does really give new ways and possibilities on playing gambling without any strict rules on playing online which most people really hesitates to do so.When bitcoin gambling is already there it really increasr the number of gamblers for sure because of the ease process.
8060  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can gambling be profitable in long term ? on: June 16, 2017, 06:22:25 AM
So after reading this thread the first time back on Page 22 or something I've now tried to only live on gambling for the past 60 days. There's been some crazy ups and downs and an emotional rollercoaster. The Mrs. has not been too happy either.

I believe I've been earning around $150-$450 on a daily basis. Been betting on Sports & eSports and I've been playing a small amount of Casino & Poker.

I have some research and some complete numbers that I can share later on when I'm at my PC. If there would be any interest.

Conclusion: Can gambling be profitable in the long term? - Absoluteley. Is it fun? - Not really, a lot of stress and pressure with a lot of highs and lows throughout the day.

I guess the stress come from the wanting to win.  When we fail to predict the right outcome, it will become frustration or when we fail in our strategy to win the game.  Though I believe gambling is profitable to those who knows the in and out of gambling rules .  Though I think being the owner of a gambling casino can give you more chance of winning or get profit in long term.
Being an owner of a casino or a gambling website surely profits, if it has got a good development team as well has a funding team to popularize and the perfect calculation in odds to have a house edge will surely profit in the long run. Same time there are gambling websites that were much popular in the beginning and went bankrupt in a short. So gambling and owning gambling websites is profitable in the long run, if the person is good to learn from mistakes.

owning an online casino is much profitable in the long run than just being an ordinary gambler. online casino make a profit through the loses of the gamblers - there has to be a winner and a loser between the 2 but, the casino owners have their special weapon to secure profit at the end of the day and that weapon is what we called house edge advantage.
That's the way to play in the gambling world. We use logic, if casino owners do not get a profit in the long run, they can go bankrupt, and if they go broke, how can we gamble in the casino again? So we also should be grateful also with such conditions.


Thats really only requires common sense on which we can able to say that casinos do really make huge profits and its really a profitable one seeing on how many gambling sites in the market, there are lots of them because they saw that its making them money because of gambler who arent tired of losing thats why making money on gambling for long term is really impossible.
