I also use a superstitious pattern but I prefer to call it a positive suggestion, I always gamble in the same hour because I feel in that hour will bring good luck. Although this superstition is actually logically very influential on the crowd at that time. This is not so bad as I'm not doing anything out of logic.
Just do whatever you believe will give you a win, being superstitious gives additional fun to us as a gambler and whatever work to us may not work to others so let's mind our own business and keep experimenting. Nowadays, I think only few gamblers are doing it because mostly the young gamblers would rather be realistic and based their decision in gambling on things that could help them analyze.
Actually i also think superstition to gambling but sometimes i think also about realistic. For me the gamble is between lucky and unlucky us, most people say people who gamble can not be rich but for me it's just a nonsense talk because for me the gamble is the same as the challenge.

In gambling people will gain experiences whether it's good or bad one. They will remember the time when they got lucky and unlucky. And then superstition comes. They will remember what things that made them lucky and try to use it again in the next sessions in the hope they will get the same luck as before, vice versa.

Good observation there dude and that actually makes a lot of sense. What worked for someone previously may make them think that that's what makes them lucky. That may lead to a superstitious belief that some routine may actually affect their luck both in a negative or positive way.


People would definitely mold up their own superstition belief when they do tried up new things while they are playing. They do such behavior or habit while playing if they find out that they are lucky on that position or betting styles they would definitely use up that thing on other gambling sessions which is really normal for a certain person.

Hey,

i made a gambling slack to just hang out,
share tipps and strategy's and cry over your loss.


feel free to join

https://join.slack.com/t/the-winning/shared_invite/MjE5NjA5NzAyMTE3LTE1MDEzNDEyNjAtMWVkNDA0MmQ5Yg


see you there



Don't really think this is going to become popular.

For one we got the Bitcointalk forum to complain about our losses and discuss strategies.

And if not, most gambling sites have their own form of troll box which always seems to be very active.

Either way good luck with your idea.


I think bitcointalk forum threads are much better to learn things than slack discussion because in slack you can't check all these posts if more people joined and keep on posting comments. Some people may like this idea but I don't like it. I'm more comfortable to read comments on forum threads than slack discussions.

all good points but IMHO it is good to run side by side (BCT and SLACK) and please understand that slack is real time and many gamblers are more than on one site and could see some nice whale action or spontaneous promos and inform other gamblers in slack in real time.

I like the idea
Having both mediums would really be interesting since you can able to post up or express regarding on your ideas or the times of grudge when you do lose in gambling but as far as i observed people do really prefer to post here on this forum seeing that there are much more people who do interacts but yet its not filtered though unlike on slack which we assume that most people there are gamblers. I like this idea too.
8183  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When you play Dice can you feel your heart in your throat? on: August 02, 2017, 10:25:04 AM
I havent felt like that, because i am only gamble with small balance and even only occasionally in a month. I gambled when really feeling very saturated.
Hi.
This is good, in fact it should be how we look at gambling.
It is not a profession for people who just got into it. Just play for entertainment. Win or lose, there shouldn't be regrets.

Dice is an exciting game let's face it, and i think most of us who've played dice have experienced this once that we're on the edge of our seats waiting for the results to be in our favor. But as you play longer, that excitement would wear out and for me, what's left is a boring type of gambling game which is not worth much time.
If you do see how many dice sites in the market you would really able to say that there is a lot demand for it since there are lots of it and i dont know why dice game is always the game which other do really like and its really enjoyable but same as you said the longer you play it the excitement would really fade out specially when we are already losing. It isnt exciting anymore which i do decide to leave up the game and find another one.
8184  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does experience matter in gambling? on: August 02, 2017, 09:35:43 AM
To me, the important experience in gambling to know about how to play / at the time of betting. I think at the time of bet perasaaan we should be calm and can predict the game in play. The point must be self-control and keep control of emotions, prepare the target and strategy on playing, so as not to experience a lot of defeat and more loss of balance. And actually luck is we who create it is not something else.

Luck is not created by ourselves because luck is random. Sometimes it happen to us and sometimes it doesnt. Im one of the guy that has no luck at all that is why I can only hope for experience but that is not really going to help me as well. So the only thing left for me is to play for fun

i think its not about you that has no luck, because i think i don't have a luck too in the games and i can count how much i can win. and i think experience still important in gambling because with experience, at least we have played that games in the past so we can follow the games even if we are only loss.
We all have luck and it happen when we least expected it, however sometimes in gambling we abuse that luck and we push it hard which would lead us to not getting anything in the end. Luck is the best gift we have in gambling and we should learn also to stop and quit at the right time, remember that it's good to quit with profit in our wallet.
Knowing luck do easily pass out in our hands which means its not permanent once it hits us it only gives us a matter of seconds of minutes on playing gambling and make some winnings and if you do really strive hard to push your luck without knowing that it has already gone then you will surely end up on losing money. Quiting or leaving gambling on profits would really be a good habit.
8185  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How can Electrum users access BCC? on: August 01, 2017, 12:38:26 PM
As been said by electrum team you should not download the new wallet into a same machine if you dont really want to mess up. They suggested that you would download on other machine and you do import your private keys on the new wallet and you would really able to get BCC once it successfully imported. I didnt still try to download now im waiting for others to do so.
8186  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gift For Kid on: August 01, 2017, 10:57:05 AM
May be your thread will be convert into other section. But about the answer. Seriously, i am agree with you, i also not allow to play gambling for kids. Gambling is a game for +18, youngsters could play it, but about the kids, i don't want to see that kids play it and waste their money. Because if any kid play gambling so it mean he has a money in his pocket and use it where definitely he get lose and when his money will be finished then sure he will do something wrong to get more money and the reason is gambling.
quite agree with you. the main reason that kids attract towards it that it is very interesting and that's the reason it is very attractive to the teenagers. they are always in need of money or always in the search to make their money more and more but it need experience and maturity to play good or to win. which is not possible in that age.
Engaging on gambling on the earliest age isnt really a good thing for them because they are only seeking for possible problems ahead when gambling would be their main concern. Having this kind of toys cant really be avoided and as a parent its our responsibility if we would decide to buy it or not for our children as long you do know the possible things would happen ahead.
8187  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to spot a gambler addicted? on: August 01, 2017, 10:07:15 AM
gambler addicted ? well i've seen a lot of people addicted to gambling those are people who don't care if they didnt eaten yet as long as they're playing gambling the people who want to earn a lot of money and became a loaner which leads to be a homeless . people who is addicted on gambling will always lose . peopel who play in the long run will not make them rich it willbe a waste for their money.

It is a true story about addicted gambler, who lose everything during his addicted period and if they continue to play gambling than the time is not far when they will be lose their life because of addiction in gambling. I also have painful story and i always worried about my brother who become addicted gamble. It is really give pain whenever i discuss about him. I have too much painful feeling even i can't explain it in my words.     

Well that’s a sad story mate, and those pains will brought us lessons in life as days gone by. Before spotting an addicted gambler you must know the exact scenario that caused their addictions. Continued activities linked with gambling really prevails during those days of involvement and as a curious individual who cared for my relatives and friend, I must take part of giving an advice in order to make them realize that those activities will did a negative effects on their lives. For now those pains and experiences that has gone through times, is really a serious situation that needs desired attention to be solved emotionally behind social matters.
I guess you should help your brother to review what he did in his life and by the time that he gets better, go and celebrate and definitely, don't gamble again. If you think that gambling helps you, it's not. It's better to have other activities and hobbies to do because you're not going to do some bad stuff to yourself, it's going to be good. Don't worry, time would heal and I hope you guys can get through it.
He can not help anything, The only way to escape from gambling is ourselves then if his brother he wants to stop gambling, it must be from himself. no one can help us than ourselves from addiction Unless you are addicted to drugs. Actually addicted to gambling is not as severe as drug addiction because if you have run out of money then you can by itself stop gambling but to stop the total from gambling, it must be from themselves.
No one could really help you to get out on addiction but it would mostly start from ourselves same as you said but there are instances on which you would need a hand if you cant really do it for yourself.Seeking for others help isnt bad at all as long you are really sensible or serious to quit such addiction and as being mentioned on op if you do experience loss better to take a break and calm down before you would able to do wrong move even more.
8188  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling with altcoins on: August 01, 2017, 09:19:47 AM
although bitcoin transactions are expensive but I see many are still using bitcoin to gamble maybe because they also get benefit from expensive bitcoin prices. I prefer to use dogecoin because the low price is quite stable and transaction fees are also small.

When compared to Bitcoin, Doge Coin is the best option for gambling because it won't harm us even though transaction fee is high. We are losing a lot of money in the form transaction fee, so when compared to Bitcoin, I think Doge is the best option for me to gamble.
We would really not mind of fees even though its high on numbers but on value its still low and much better compared to bitcoin. Doge would really be a good choice too also on its transfer times.
I can really enjoy playing dice on using doge because i have lots of it and you can bet up small amounts which wont really bother you if you do lose up.
8189  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Would a Neural network improve dice betting? on: August 01, 2017, 02:35:10 AM
Or it will just end up mimicking what an human would do to win?
Its senseless and wont really work after all because even neural network cant really beat up house edge no matter what. It may not have an emotion but knowing dice its pure random and theres no way to manipulate it or exploit it which theres no possible way to have winning situation anytime.It might work for some other fields but not for dice for sure.
8190  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know whether its your lucky day? on: July 31, 2017, 01:40:00 PM
The answer is simple - your lucky day is when you win more than lose. I call it a lucky day if I manage to double my initial bankroll - that is all I care about.
agreed, If you never lose in the games for the whole day its called your luck day. Your bankroll multiply into x 10 in total amount.
So, if that's happening to you were losing in the game for the whole day has no space on you, of course you must stop and then back on another games. But I think, that's impossible to happen.
Impossible indeed, we can be lucky in four to five rounds but to the extent of having it whole day well if that's possible i will really abuse the chance snd will bet huge amount.

No one can win all their bets in a whole day. Lose and win are part of gambling. If we can leave a gambling place with profit, then we can say we are lucky and vice versa. Luck is the end result of our gambling actions in a period of time. So, no one can predict it.
No human being could really able to predict on whats ahead or even on when luck would be on his side because we would able to say so when we are experiencing winnings or profits. Knowing you lucky day would be the hardest part for sure or would only happen on our dreams. lol. This is why we should really be aware anytime if we are on profits we should know on when to exit on profits not on the losing side.
8191  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Now a days Bitcoin is going to Became More Valuable Than Gold on: July 31, 2017, 12:10:44 PM
The cost of a single Bitcoin already rose above the cost of an ounce of gold. the bitcoin price go up $2,631 where the 1 ounce gold price is $1320. It is really true that the price of bitcoin is doubled than the price of gold! I noticed that the units of measurement are not comparable, the falling price of gold and rising price of bitcoin is still nonetheless, significant. We can not imagine that  Which is better for our future collecting Gold or gathering Bitcoin? Huh  We should discuss about the future of Bitcoin price and Gold. I think in the digital world bitcoin will be more valuable than any other currencies! I also think that this is the real time to discuss about the future of bitcoin and gold.
They are different and you cant compare it to gold.If you do speak on prices we can really say that bitcoin does have the edge but seeing on the foundation i can say that gold do really have the edge, Price might behind on bitcoin but its strong and cant be easily be down knowing that gold is a valuable metal on this world which means it cant be easily vanished which would really possible on bitcoin anytime.
8192  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: plinko game discussion thread. on: July 31, 2017, 11:20:22 AM
1,There is no line that I like, I prefer to make my own line. In plinko I use martiangle dice strategy and keep changing the options I want
2,Well, the victory is always there every time I play but I quickly get bored and keep changing custom the habit where I can learn where the ball will goal
4,sometimes,veryone would love a big win, I also like major payout in the hardest spot But it's rare there.
All of us would really love to hit that major spot but as you said it would really be a rare case to hit that one.Im playing plinko and i can say that martingale strategy might work or not depending on your betting habit. You are right when i do play for longer runs i do get bored easily on this game thats why i ended up always on playing dice game.

Money keeps me coming back.
I like to take my chance to win money without doing nothing.
I lost almost every time tho, small cash, but somehow it turns to bigger loss in long run.

All people have the same aim which is money. People do engage on gambling because of money and this is the thing on what keeps them coming back.Even on small amounts if its pile up then it would be still a big amount later on which you said was true.In this case if you see that you are already addicted to play even on small amounts you should already restrict yourself if you want to avoid severe consequences later on.
8195  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum for 1st august on: July 30, 2017, 02:34:06 PM
I have been lost many money in bitcoin industry but i wouldn't lose any more. I am using Electrum for bitcoin. will i able spend my coins in both chains after fork?

Im not sure. I think you should be able to import the seed in the other chain somehow. There's an Electrum Cash software client but according to the Electrum statement made on their site, it is not officially endorsed by them:

https://electrum.org/bcc.txt

Honestly and just to be safe, if you want to spend your BCC, get a Core full node, then get a BCC full node from bitcoincash.org.

Every other method is risky to me and I wouldn't bother. You must set this up before august 1st so you must download the blockchain quickly tho..
Its already too late when you decide up to download the whole blockchain as of now when you decide to use bitcoin core unless if you have super duper speedy internet that would able to download in a matter of 2 days. we are on July 30 and thinking of that split will happen on August 1.Theres no much time left to make such action this is why i do stick with electrum as long you do hold the keys it wont really be a problem for sure.
8196  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know whether its your lucky day? on: July 30, 2017, 01:29:46 PM
I would never rely on a "lucky day". Even if it seems like you have found a way to predict a "lucky day", you will almost certainly lose in the long run by relying on it.
I do always fall on this trap on which you would really feel up that you are lucky on that day and the results are already going the same way. I do ride it up as long i do win but when i do already lose for few times i do already have some doubts that i will already lose this time and later on when i lost already my money thats the time that i should really stop on those times when i already experiencing loss.
8197  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When to leave the game? on: July 30, 2017, 07:04:14 AM
As you know that you need to stop and leave the game? How can you feel this moment. I almost always lose their money because they can't learn when to leave the game. I'm not sorry to lose. I have a lot of money not to lose, but I can't keep the winnings if I'm lucky.

You really can't say when exactly, because frankly when you start to win big numbers you get really excited and wanted more.
But I guess, I would leave when from a big number I have lost one or two more tries. I will not risk more that what I have won already.

That is right, gambling is so tricky. It gives fun and excitement to every player especially if they win the round and do not know how to stop. Some do not want to leave the game because they gain lot profit from it.
But for me, winning in just one time per day is good because I can use it to add my profit and to avoid the lose of money.
You need to be very careful with this line of thinking. It ultimately doesn't matter when you play your games when gambling. You can play all games in one go, or you can spread them out over many years. The result will be the same: The longer you play, the more you lose! Gambling is meant for fun and excitement, it's a way to turn your money into entertainment, just like going to a movie or playing a "normal" online-game.
If you are playing gambling then you should think off that those money would be served as a payment for the excitement or enjoyment that you do seek on playing gambling.You are right it isnt mean for making money for longer runs knowing gambling would really put a hole in your pocket when you decide to engage with it for longer runs. You will surely regret it later when you know you dont have any money left.
8198  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: It is not worth it, right? on: July 30, 2017, 04:27:00 AM
Many people here are asking "How gambling can benefits us by winning" on it using strategy like Martingale, or pure luck when we are playing DICE?
But I'm just wondering when do people will realize that gambling can never be the one that could benefits us, because the truth is, we could lose the thing that we can't lose to afford before we could be benefited by gambling.

I'm sure many pro gamblers out there can make gambling become benefits to them. Most of gamblers here are greedy and can't control their emotion when it comes to gambling. Pro gamblers is different, they can do different and can control theirself. That's why pro gamblers can makes gambling become a benefit activity.
are you sure? i a little bit don't believe on how can a lot of people have a long last benefit because of gambling . mostly ended up with loss instead profit even they have got a good winning previously , it won't long-lasting as it is how gambling really works.

lure you at the first and make you suffering and broke later .

Painful right?
I can say that there are some gambler in my family, sportsbetting, dices or cards but they are losing in the end. Somedays are shiny and some are shady. Of course sometimes they are winning a huge amount but it is gone in an instant. I didnt even seen a smile on their face when it comes in the long run. Yes gambling is an istant cash but so what> ? is this really what you people want?
Gambling is a very good  occasional bonding and recreational activities with families and friends but if you instill in your heart that you might be one of the next millionaire, then get some work. Dont depend in gambling because you will end up losing in the long run. I learned that the hardway.
This is how gambling works and thinking on making money or being a millionaire on gambling is a very stupid thing. These kind of aims will really put us on trouble if we did let this thing push us to play gambling.Its not really worth for our time and money to be wasted and as you said there are shiny and shady days but comparing on the ratio there would be more shady since gambling will really have more loses than winnings.

Which of the Bitcoin wallets between the Online and Offline works best?
If you are longing for long term and you have lots of bitcoins on your possesion then offline or hardware wallets would be the best storage for your bitcoin which it can somehow avoid or decrease the risk on getting lost of those coins. If you are an active bitcoin user then just put the sufficient amount that you do make transactions and all the rest into the offline wallet.
8200  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you feel when win in gambling? on: July 29, 2017, 06:30:27 AM
Everyone feels good when they win in gambling. I feel happy as my ego rises allowing me to think about another turn. "Yes, I have just won and got lots of money, and I'm sure I'm going to win again because I learned your moves and tactics. Want to play again?" I say the previous statement every time, I win a game.

This is what I'm talking about. You think that you can't do anything wrong. When I won big in a land based casino. I feeling that the machine itself is calling me to play with it because he will give me money. LOL. That's how I felt sometimes after collecting my huge jackpot. I'm going around picking a good machine and then suddenly I choose the one that somewhat "giving me the signs" or "calling" me to sit and play that machine because it will give me another big win.
Really interesting, do you feel different thing when you won? I mean you've to gamble on online casino and win then i want ask what difference do you feel when you win from both options?
Wow thats a nice sign which you would able to tell a certain machine that calls you to play saying that they would able to give you money. This is really great but well this is people intuition and based on experience which we cant really stop them to believe on since they are just stating their situation specially on playing land based casinos. How i wise i would have the same feeling too. lol
