I prefer using bot in those greed moments. As we all know we still want to make those extra satoshi everytime no matter what the excuse is. So use bot when you start playing and set a goal so that when you reach that goal bot can automatically withdraw the whole balance to another address.
Greed methods and will just play for short term time? This could be result of win or lose or just depending on your luck either you had skills im not using using bots i tried to use bots when i was too lazy to play and i start to play with 0.1 bitcoin after making that bot running for almost 5hours when i came back all my bitcoin gone i prefer to play manualy done risking money from bots.

Time doesn't matter, even if you play for a second, a minute, an hour, a whole month, it all doesn't matter. What if you bet everything in a single bet, then that would be just a split second! Bots are even worse! They bet for you the whole day, and they are executing the same strategy again and again. Which really brings you nearer to infinity and because of the house edge, you are going to lose based on the theories of statistics.
Agree on what you have said, time would not really vary when you do make bets because even on less than 5 seconds on all in bet it will surely make you poor depending on the amount did you risk on playing gambling.Being greedy is really a part of human nature and we cant avoid that emotion when we do play gambling especially to those things which money is involve.

I earned $120 in three days from gambling with bitcoin

Can say, this is my good luck?

However, this is not just luck, or the use of a reasonable strategy

You can try 999dice.com in the game

Here you can check soat you lose money, because it is limited to the number of your bet

So you can't lose money to invest in its friends

Don't be too greedy, or your prey!
Its just like you are promoting the site rather than saying your extreme lucky days. knowing that 999dice do really have an issue against scamming for which i would not tend to play again on that site if ever you gotten some withdrawal but well congratulations to you and the amount you won is already decent and remember not to be greedy on playing gambling.


Maybe he just wanted to share his little winning story or maybe the post was made to promote that scam site. He may get a negative trust for promoting that scam site.
No he wont get any negative ratings for that because theres no solid relationship on op to the scam site and we should respect on what he wants to tell us here since this forum is made for expressing some of things or any experiences on this online world.Just been said above $120 on 3 days isnt really bad at all and even myself cant still able to achieve that rate of winning on a short period of days.

8144  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Happen If Gambling was not introduced? on: May 25, 2017, 12:19:57 PM
If gambling wasn't introduce I know there will be some kind of the same thing as gambling. And it will be introduced to everyone and that will be the start of people to get with it. But if gambling was not introduce for sure there will be a lot of rich people in this world. Most of the people that are losing in gambling will be used for their own personal interest.

well I find it hard ti imagine a world wothout as I think gambling is natural for us humans. the emotions that gambling gets from us are raw human emotions, excitement, regret, greed, happiness, as longnas these emotions are there I think people would one way or another discover gambling
No matter how we think off that if gambling doesnt exist we cant think off on a world without it because people would really make gambles not even on money matters but on real situations on our life. Makingg gamble cant really be avoided because its part of a human being of being greedy when its comes to money and we should really accept that even ourselves do have greediness inside.

It will make you interested to manage your bankroll if you have a decent amount, however most of the gamblers does not have a decent bankroll and they only rely in timing to win a big amount and then cash out and back later. Only serious gamblers will treat their bankroll as a capital that they need to manage it properly because they are in the business to make money.

If you dont actually have enough money to play then perhaps you shouldnt be playing at all. Some people just think that with a small amount of money they could make tons out of it. This is a stupid thought in the first place, some people managed to double their deposits however if you actually managed to double your few mbtc deposits than that might be meaningless
Doubling money would really be possible but only depends on how big or small your bankroll is. There are really some people do really think that they can make of huge money out of their small bankroll which is impossible anytime unless if you make hit on the jackpot.Smartway can be called if you do know how to manage your funds and able to control yourself on when to stop on a particular day on playing gambling.
8146  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When is Gambling Like Investing on: May 24, 2017, 06:57:20 AM
Gambling can be investment only in the case of nonstop win, but it's just impossible. From other hand investment in gambling sites can become really profitable as I heard.
No one wins non stop, to make it a more realistic definition, gambling can only be an investment if you put your money in casinos who offers investment program. That way you can ensure that they will give you a little percentage of their income based on your investment, this is only for people who are willing to wait, it's less risky for me IMO.
i guess when you gamble with altcoin or bitcoin itself ,
it has been / feel like linvesting , as when you lost the bet and price go up sometimes you still in profit!
and when you won the bet at the same time the price up you have a lot of benefit!

crypto world is full of opportunity.
What are you trying to say? Gambling is feel like investing when you do lost bet? How come?  When we do talk or mentioned about investing then we go directly investing on gambling site bankroll and thats the thing we do consider as an investment and playing on gambling sites wont really be considered as one because you do give your money on the house and making lost it all.
8147  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know if a gambling site is scam or not? on: May 24, 2017, 06:26:08 AM
I usually look into their promotion, if the promotion is too good to be true, then i won't gamble in that site. But usually i just use the site that has many player and nice user interface and good customer support incase something happen.

this is a good clue for us to know their programs so we can analyze or make some note with the site. but i think, its not all gambling site that giving a good promotion will be scam because only time that can prove the site is scam site or not and we don't know until we are trying to play in that sites. i guess we already know that we should aware to make deposit in the gambling site and only deposit the amount that we can spend so if anything bad is happen, we don't have to be sad about our loss.
Testing out first would always be a good way on finding out if the site is scam or not but mostly this method wouldnt work always because some scam gambling sites do pay on the earlier days of it and later on when they do accumulate enough bitcoins then they do decide to scam people.I go always for having a good feedback and a good reputation before i do make some deposits on the site.I rarely play on newly built sites depending on my interest.
8148  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How much do you trade with? and feel comfortable with exchange holding on: May 24, 2017, 05:55:53 AM
Just wondering how much bitcoin you feel comfortable with an exchange holding while you trade. I'm not asking anyone and wouldn't recommend anyone detailing in the thread their finances.
I can afford to use up 1-2 BTC on doing trading on every exchange which i used to trade since i can able to maximize my btc to purchase potential alts.Im scared and do know the risk of exchange hacks or whatsoever but as long i do make money i usually pull out my capital an re-rolling the profits that i have gained. Rinse and repeat and it should be fine.
8149  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling loses and wins on: May 24, 2017, 05:39:21 AM
Last week, I won 87 EUR. I gambled on multiple sport betting, usually I prefer betting on soccer games and tennis, and I do put only 10 EUR. It's one of my best thing in the start of the this year 2017. Generally, I don't stake so much as the same time don't cross the barrier of 20 EUR.
One of the good things about sports betting is you can bet a low amount and if the odds are high you can earn a good amount by betting small, the only problem is to win those games with long odds may take a while.

The odds may be high, but the risk is still there and the match can go wrong. I tried to place only 3 bets in sports betting on my life and it didn't help me, I still lost. Be careful even with sports!
True!!! Not all sports betting, you can win.
Most of the time gambling or even that sports betting are more on luck, and sometimes even if you are good enough in analyzing that team, you can also lose here. Gambling is very risky and we don’t have any assurance here.
Thats why gambling isnt sure win . Even the odds of the team you pick is higher than the opponent theirs a chance of lossing. It is depending on your analyzation on a team where will you bet and on your luck too. Its hard to predict if the both teams are both good. The odds will have a chance to have odds thats the same.
True, if that teams are both good and you just relying of what you have known on that teams then there is no assurance that the team that you choose can win, I don't think that in sport betting, there is a high percentage you can win. It is still base on our luck.
But having a good analysis on choosing your team would really give an advantage if you do know the standing of such thing. Luck is always part on playing gambling and knowing sportsbetting you may see that you bet on stronger team but there are things do happen unexpectedly which would cause for you to lose which means the risk of losing is always present.
8150  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Social aspect of gambling - do you ever gamble with a friend? on: May 24, 2017, 05:06:34 AM
Hi guys!
Many people find gambling a bad habit because of many various reasons. One of them is the fact that gambling is considered to be an asocial activity. But are they right? Do you really think that gambling is making you asocial? Or it's the right opposite? Have you ever find new friends while or thanks to gambling? Do you ever gamble with someone else? Would you take part in some kind of a team based tournament? Or can you think about anything that could make gambling more social activity? Maybe we can change this with your help!
Let us know what do you think about that
Yours OshiHugo

this is the first time i am hearing this! to this day i have never seen someone call gambling  as something that is going to make you "asocial"!
and to answer you i have to say i am not much of a gambler specially these days with the huge price rise. but in different games i go to my friends for playing. for example when it comes to poker i always find someone to play a friendly match with. and it doesn't even have to be for money, it can be with chips and just for fun of it.
Playing with friends isnt bad at all and playing it doesnt be compulsory to use money and yes you can boost up  relationship with others when you are playing together but in my side i like to play on solo flight because it distracts me when someone is watching me while im playing better to be alone and remain anonymous that no one could able to know that im playing gambling.
8151  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much have you lost / win on Bitcoin dice ? on: May 24, 2017, 02:53:22 AM
I played dices so much, and on so many sites that its very hard for me to calculate how much I won or lost on this game. I think I`m in little plus from all that playing, my biggest win on dices that I remember even today was from 0.03 btc and after few hours of playing I cashed out 0.27 btc. And once I deposited 0.15 and I had 0.5 in one moment, after few hours of playing I lost everything, there was many ups and downs, when I`m pushing high odds and after many loses one win give me back everything I lost and extra. For less amounts I had many wins and loses, but that I don`t even count.
to me i also play dice games, but i play it only for fun and enjoyment and therefore i only invest a very little money in dice games for which i do not care either i will make money from that or not, while for most of the time i play sports gambling from where i really invest  a good amount of money in sports gambling, where i have good  opportunities to make money.
play for fun it's still could leading to addiction ,
when you play frequently just like when you treat it as a hobby ,
in the end gambling will never give you profit ,
it's always about how you lost , i don't believe those people who keep getting profit especially in a game like dice.
Its not always the case because there are some people could able to control theirselves on playing gambling just for fun and they dont really mind on losing money as long they get the leisure that they seek on playing.Its not bad actually as long you dont compromise too much on your obligation in terms of money for your needs and saving.
I strongly agree on this one coz eagerness wouldnt give a good result or being aggressive on playing gambling instead of making some strategized bets you will eventually make random moves.My profits or lose on dice game cant really be calculated because i really dont mind to list it out when i do play as long i enjoy the game win or lose is just fine for me and on this way should gambling game be treated.
8152  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: May 24, 2017, 02:25:13 AM
I agree.  The smart way to play gambling is to have control of your self, control of your bet, control of your emotion and control of your bankroll.  You should also have track of time and can at least know your statistics while playing.

We can Control everything except for luck. When we have control over everything, it will not help us to win some money however it will help us not to lose alot. Sometimes it is good to have control over everything starting from the beginning therefore we wont regret when we already lose in the middle of the game
If we will control on our pocket too then we will be able to control our luck as we will not lose more if we will not spend more on gambling. We will in this way learn about gambling and we will then think and will decide that how much better are we in gambling and how much we need to gamble.

It would be hard to control ourselves on gambling especially when we are winning, in this way, the gambling sites are making us to believe that we are lucky in gambling, by letting us win on a few rolls or spin, but after that? Expect that you are going to lose in a row, and you are going to be annoyed and will bet your money randomly until you realized that you don't have money anymore.
This do happen always on most gamblers there are some sites that really makes you win for the first time of your games which would boost up your confidence on playing even more because you do know that you can able to make an easy money but its not the case always because they can anytime turn tables instead and as you said you will surely realized on the end that you dont have anymore money on your pocket.
8153  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is this a pump going on? on: May 23, 2017, 05:07:08 PM
Today its now seven consecutive green candles and we have already seen historical increase in price but where are profit takers and why bitcoin and altcoin are on the same ride at the same time?

I am not buying and waiting for correction but I am unable to understand why there is no red candle yet.


Bear candles doesnt still shown up because people do still buy or accumulate more bitcoin thats why price is on a rally as of now and i can say that its really amazing to see the price is slowly climbing up to the top but im a little bit worried later on when the bubble pops out and dip again on the price.Checking the chart above posted those are a good examples of charting showing the corrections on the movements of the price of bitcoin.When you do make trendlines on that one i can say that the trend is still bullish but yet not guaranteed.
8154  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Where and which part of day do you gamble? on: May 23, 2017, 03:40:18 PM
I gamble on sports so there is no specific or fixed time to gamble as if you want  to gamble then you need to adjust your time table according to the schedule of the game as it can be in morning, afternoon or even at night depending on the timing of the country.
This is true, time would vary depending on what time would the game would start and sadly i cant even make some bets sometimes because of time difference between zones which i cant able to place bets.If im actively awake then its possible to make bets but usually its on dawn and that time i do sleep on those times but if we are talking about casual games like dice and other games then i can anytime play with it as long as i want.
8155  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know if a gambling site is scam or not? on: May 23, 2017, 02:16:30 PM
I think if the site is not paying thats already scam. When you start to play and lose big money then you win once or twice thats already scam. Review the site first before trying to play.
Even though the site is paying others have a different tactic like freezing accounts, You can check the scam accusation section for this . Still doing a through research is the best option how to spot if a gambling site is a legit or not .
I wonder how you do your research if a gambling site is scam or not?
Very simple mate try small amount to gamble if you win and paid you then it must be legit do it many times until you prove its totally legit other ways make some research on google there are so many reviews you can find and lastly search the site on btctalk Im sure this foum can really help you coz there are so many gamblers here lol..

Right, start with a small amount and if everything goes well, you are safe to go big. But then gamble only what you can afford to lose as you never know a site is good one day and scam the other day.
There are other ways to check if its legit without spending a single cents tho . And as I have said even though its paying its doesn't mean its legit .
There are multiple ways to scam users . As the customers/users are getting wary os scams of course the scammers will always think a new idea .


Try their support team, try to ask them on any instances that seems you worried on playing on their site. Its better to play on casinos with active and humane support team.
Having active support team or staff doesnt guaranteed that they are legit ones maybe they are just active on the first month specially on newly built site but having this kind of active support is really important on gambling site. knowing a gambling site either a scam or not would be good would mainly came on community feedback.
8156  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Giving up gambling is not easy on: May 23, 2017, 12:50:42 PM
Giving up gambling is not easy, if you are only saying that you want to quit gambling with your mouth. But without works of quitting, do you think you are going to quit gambling? You need to push a plan so that you can quit gambling.

I agree, most of the time people can say something easily but eventually they are having hard time to do what they have said . Similar to the situation when someone said he's going to quit gambling but not making any action to do it so as he is still dealing with it . Maybe it will be better if people are making a plan or limitations even from the start not only after they become addicted .
If you do really want to quit then you should really be willing to leave gambling completely but you wont able to do it on instant way because it would really takes time for adjustments because if you tend to instant quit i do really say that you will surely failed and you will play again on gambling.I can say since i have already experienced such thing.
I agree this is very true , I tried quiting playing gambling before and It takes time because you need a realization that you cant get a proper life with the addiction of gambling. Sadly I didnt stop playing it but the good side is I am now not addicted with gambling and I can control myself when I was playing.
Good to hear that you can already able to control yourself on playing gambling and this should really be the thing that most gambler would do after such addiction or shall we say stop completely on playing gamblingg when you do notice that you are already got addicted to it.Giving up isnt an easy thing but if you do let yourself have strong self control and discipline then i could say that quitting would really be possible on a short period of time.
8157  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Planned or impulsive gambling? on: May 23, 2017, 12:28:52 PM
Well when it comes to planned gambling I don't actually can call it planned because I compete with my friends with a bet in checkers and chess so I think when I am more skilled in my opponent I can call it planned.
In sports betting I always bet with my favorite team in the league so I can say that it is impulsive. Sometimes I bet with the combination of the two.
Sports betting is one of my favorites in gambling and in fact it's my favorite, I also bet on parlays because I'm thinking it could provide me with a better payout but despite of that I have plan and study all my bets. I go impulsive depending on the situation because sometimes there are situations when you loss control of yourself and you stop following your plan.

It is at this moment when the control is lost because of the excitement and losses occur. In sports betting, you can work well, but you need to clearly study their rates and follow the plan.

In sports betting, we can control our emotions if our plan not worked and we lost money. This happens in casino games we can not control our emotions. And with that tension, we will not make any plan, and we also forget our strategies, and we play blindly to get back our loss finally we end up with a big loss. So planned gambling will work in skill games, but it not works in casino games.
Knowing that most casino games does really require extreme luck for you to able to win and having skills wont be effective too much when you do hardly strive to use it. If lose then its a lose then we should moved on and keep calm and dont get panic because same as you said once our emotions do control us we cant do proper decision and bets related on our normal habit. Playing gambling would be rather planned or impulsive depending on users wallet or time.

No one can help you out even you would pay decent amount of fees since admin and staffs do have the power to unban those accounts depending on the case which they are involved why they are being banned.

8160  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Would you risk 10 BTC at 80% to get a 1.2x payout? on: May 22, 2017, 05:07:20 PM
Would you risk 10 BTC at 80% to get a 1.2x payout? or even at 90% for a 1.1x?

Seems so easy to get a big payout. Just not quite sure if i can push the roll dice button tho.

But the easy money is so..

10 BTC is a huge amount of money with recent rate so I am very sure I won't risk it at gambling. I can buy a new car or even build a new house with 10 BTC. The answer will be no and never!
You are right,why i would risk the amount if i can already buy a new car or even build my own house on that. When you do convert it on our local fiat its already worth a million which means a lot of things would do to that money and risking it on one bet even on 90% chance wont really happen even on my dreams.I can only spend 1 btc max on a single bet with those odds.
