8181  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to quit Gambling for good? on: May 17, 2017, 02:03:02 PM
Stop gambling I think it is very difficult, gambling can stop if you go bankrupt, if you still profit from gambling I think you will not be able to stop. I have experienced like you and I have also felt very bankrupt caused by gambling

So difficult, it is a pleasure to you when you gamble, so stopping yourself from your pleasure is really hard. If you are ruined by gambling,I think you will have a courage to stop these activity or addiction. It is not bad if you can stop it slow, not quick, it is really hard that you don't need to speed up your stopping from addiction, you need to start slow.

If you enjoy gambling it's not necessary to stop, you just have to plan how much you can afford to spend on it in, say, per week. But if you are greedy and you want to make quick money, and you want more and more even when you have won a bit, then it's a different story, and gambling has little to do with it. Greedy people, even if they quit gambling, pretty soon will find a way to turn their own life and life of their relatives to hell again.
You said it right man,playing gambling isnt really wrong if you do know how to treat it that way it should be but we cant really remove in to a certain person its greediness because its always been part of ourselves when we are talking already about money and that emotion of greed do normally come out.It does depend on how people gonna handle it for not to be controlled by it so easily because if you do know how to handle then quitting or stopping will be really easy for you.

I have a curiosity...

In a month on this website all that i saw are gambling discussion, idiot scam accusations and so on...

This topic is about how fair are the casinos...Why do you care? If the fair system is ok or so on...you will lose money legally same shit..

If a casino is fair with what is helping you? When you go to a casino and play on slots you will ask the girls if the bet you did is fair?
Losing to site which i know does have a provably fair system would really be fine for me atleast i do know that i have been not cheated by the site or casinos.Its much better and acxeptable rather than playing which you know that you have been cheated does hurt and you will really bad and unacceptable thats why i do really care first for the fairness of the site before playing .
but there are some peoples who cant accept lose that lose on a legit provably fair site and call the site scam , yeah its also fine to me to lose on a legit site rather than on a non legit gambling site .
Those people would really be always on this gambling world and those people who do cry when they lose up money and calling the site is a scam onwards. They should really know the risk on playing gambling and if they dont like to lose up money then they should not play gambling from the very start because losing is always part on playing gambling.
8183  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When to leave the game? on: May 16, 2017, 06:42:27 PM
Stop when you are in plus, or when you lost more then you planned. First is easy, you can be in plus 5% or 300%, you can lose short after, so when ever you are in plus no matter how much maybe it's moment to stop.
Second is also simple, you gamble and lose everything, you deposit again same amount and you lost again, think twice before you deposit third time maybe its not your day, try once again tomorrow.


Our suggestions only work for a normal gamblers but for addiction persons can't follow on our suggestions. It is easy for us to leave the game on right time, whatever we adopt the way to stop the game. But addiction man can't leave the games, Because in every game he want to win and when he win than again he start to use his winning amount in games.
But your ways to stop the game on a time, Right. 

indeed its easy to say or tell it with gamblers which is not yet addicted someone who can still manage to quit at the right time, but for those who already engage the only matters is to win and just that whatever happen he's continue aiming to win instead of quitting.
Its case to case basis for most gamblers who do play and there are people could able to control theirselves and completely stop on a certain day on playing too much gambling because they do know their limits on playing it and they dont really like to lose even more on that particular day but for some they do still decide to continue because they dont really care at all as long they do really like to play no matter what.
8184  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: what is definition gambling in your mind? on: May 16, 2017, 06:25:04 PM
From my perspective, gambling is a game which bring joyful and the entertainment to you, and sometimes, if you are lucky enough, you may earn good amount of money with it. When I feel sad, I usually gamble with my friends and it do make me relax and feel more comfortable

Though it is a fun and entertainment but people play gambling to make profit, every single person who play gambling wants to double it's investment...so I think it is an investment.
Gambling is never be an investment unless you are putting up money on the house bankroll itself. Thinking of that you do make winnings on playing gambling but you can also lose up easily which isnt possible on comparing to some investment because if we are talking about investment which means we do profit for long term with lesser risk unlike on gambling the involved risk on it is very high which cant really be considered as an investment.
8185  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker strategy! on: May 16, 2017, 06:02:52 PM
In my viewpoint, It's not like dice game or spin game that all you need is to be lucky on that day. Poker game is absolutely a mind game. You do have the ability to read your opponent card or to look by there expression where you can see if it's a green light or red light. Keep calm, head straight, and think properly so that you have a win win situation.
all of gambling games needed luck but indeed poker slightly different from other games that besides luck knowledge is necessary and the main thing is the poker players must have good mentally because just like you says that poker similar just like mind game and sometimes there is a players with very dare risky their money even that player had bad cards and we have to Ready to deal with it
Yes many people try this type of strategies. They are not a pro in poker game, but they will scare us to making a big amount betting. See if you play well in this game and you have dared to play with any player then don't care for a betting amount just play with your skill you will win. But this is 70% mind game and 30% it will depend on your luck.

Yup. I agree that is it more on a mind game. And also you should know yourself as well. I think this is the most important skills that you have to developed. You should know when to fold, when to raised a bet. Because if you don't, It will definitely hurt you when you are playing.
Actually in a poker game every gambler have a control of the game, yes as you said we should know when to fold, when to raised a bet if you know about it.#, easy to win in poker game because you would be willing to bet when the card is in your hands nice.
Its not easy to win when you dont really have enough knowledge and experience on it because you cant execute your moves if you dont have idea or lacking skills. There are some things that you should really be good at to take advantage against other players.Controlling the game would be a tough job specially when luck isnt on your side on drawing the cards.Right decisions would be really needed on this game mostly.
8186  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What did you buy for money won? on: May 16, 2017, 02:55:29 PM
I bought cell phone from all of the money that I have save from bitcoin,
That also includes my profit from gambling,signature campaign and also some investment.
That's cool! WHat kinf of investment?
Theres a lot of type of investment that makes him profitable either on trading or just holding up bitcoin alone that also be considered as an investment. Buying up a new thing is also a good reward for ourselves just like what i did when i do won some money i do secure on buying useful things specially on my work online and i do buy laptop which really worth it because i can still use it upto now on my online transactions or jobs.
8187  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If today was your last day, would you gamble everything on: May 16, 2017, 02:16:07 PM
Firstly if it was a last day why would I still gamble instead I would meet everybody whoever I Know. It's better to spend time with friends and family rather than gambling. Also would donate money to all family .

Only if you are alone in the world then you could do gambling since there is nothing to do and then you could gamble full beacuse there is nobody whom you could give money .

Prioritizing first your family would be the best choice among other things if you do have the money why would spend on gambling?You are just minding your own happiness instead on the future for your family.Its really a selfish thing to do and you are right because if you are just all alone then you can do the things all you want since its your last day then no one could able to stop all the things we would like to do.
8188  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you take part in casinos' tournaments? on: May 16, 2017, 01:40:53 PM
Yes i ever joined tournament, but it is too much trouble, I need to wait for the player to complete then I can start to played and due to the different timezone sometimes I need to wait for the player, the idea of the tournament is great the prize is also great, but it takes a long time to be the winner, it is suitable for the professional gambler, not for amateur gambler like me
What about slot tournaments?
Slot tournaments? Then no one would really join up unless if theres a big prize pool in the end of the tournament.Knowing that slots games do have slim chance of winning and reaching out a certain goal will consume money and would really worth if the prize would be only small. Cheesy. Im interested on joining some tournaments but depending on what game because i do have my own expertise.
8189  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: You know you're a Bitcoin gambler when... on: May 16, 2017, 01:13:39 PM
Even a first time player on playing gambling could make yourself say that you are a bitcoin gambler it doesnt need any deep experience about it and no one could able to identify if you are an experienced gambler or not on this online world. Those gambling terms will definitely be encountered when you are on a chatbox of a certain gambling site and you can anytime adapt it when you are playing on it and even a newbie could able to recognize it easily.
8190  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you guys think about Casino and dice games? on: May 14, 2017, 12:01:56 PM
Hey.
I was just wondering to myself, do you guys believe that online casinos are totally legit, or do you also believe that some of them are rigging outcomes.
One of the reason I prefer to bet on sports and not on dice games or at online casinos is that I can't actually know if the casino is paying me as they should, or they tell me that I lost while I was supposed to be a winner.

Does the small house edge(compared to sports betting) worth the chance of the casino rigging the outcomes, making you lose sometimes while you were supposed to be the winner?

Very wise thinking, i asked myself same question many times. Code creator can create system to be unfair, and can present fair code for review.
Yes it is always better to chose games where you can prove your victory, but this doesn't mean they will pay you. You can find here on this forum few examples of changing rules retroactively. Sports bets are more transparent!
Thats why i really prefer on playing sports betting because i can somehow see the transparency of a certain  game and certain bet. Its still possible on dice game because we can do able to see the hashes been generated every each roll. getting rigged or cheated is always possible thats why whe should really be keen on selecting sites we do play on.

8192  Economy / Gambling / Re: BitKong - Fun & Addictive, provably fair bitcoin game. on: May 12, 2017, 04:43:30 AM
did anyone noticed that the page are hard loaded at the first time you get into the site? it takes several secs almost a minute even with a high speed internet connection  Roll Eyes . it might because of the animation there? or what could make it haave a heavy to load? , the site design and game itself really extraordinary people would love it and so do i.

I just try to go to the page and everything is so smooth. May be you should check your connection or may be try clear your cache or even try to move to other browser

Btw the design and the game is really unique, that is what make bitkong stay until now. But what is missing here is just promotion that they need to do to attract more people here and signature campaign if they want to
oh yeah looks like my browser a little bit outdated , now it's working and loaded faster . the unique game concept sometimes make people easy to get bored not like wehn you play a common and popular games like blackjack , poker , roulette dice etc , that's why i think an inovation / promotion should be done more often.

That would be a great suggestion to be posted here but it matters on how devs will gonna work for it But if they will implement some pot prizes i think it will not be boring anymore since it could trigger a competition between player to get that pot allocated. But Seems this site needs some promotion truly since it is been outfamed by those well known site rotating out here.
Admin/Owner already make plans about that thing for sure because this is the only way on which a certain gambling site could boost up their popularity.Having good and competitive promotions would really matter.
Bitkong is a nice game and little promotions would really need and lacking on this one.
8193  Economy / Gambling / Re: Primedice | Most Popular, Oldest & Trusted | Huge Community | Free BTC | Instant on: May 12, 2017, 04:21:09 AM

Website is shady afaik even Hufflepuff managed to scam PD -they finally figured out how this was done. Point being, there IS away PD can screw you if they chose to reverse engineer the Hufflepuf technique. I am sure they were aware of this long before. It's as soon as you start playing big bets the system gets you.

I read about this Hufflepuff "incident" and I don't really think there is anything to "reverse engineer" for PD as his method simply exploited some kind of server weakness, if you choose your own client seed everytime & verify our bet everytime I think you're safe, I remember another casino accused of cheating and even there if you use own client seed and verify every bet they can't cheat you.

Hufflepuff is proof of the provably fair system working. If we cheated his rolls he would not have been able to profit 2400+ coins over months. Don't make accusations Lain on something you do not understand and are unwilling to spend time learning about. For the most part 'provably fair' is a sham with how most casinos are using it but Primedice and other dice sites use strong provably fair which can be properly verified and thus trusted.
You do really have the point because if a player did manage to earn that big then provably fair system on servers side does work but when we are talking on the players side its not fair at all since he do make use of some exploit which he can able to earn that huge amount. Lucky for him he managed to do that and thats a big loss for the Site of Primedice. Hope this wont happen again not only here but most gambling sites out there.
8194  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How many of my fellow bitcoiners do affiliate marketing? on: May 12, 2017, 03:41:54 AM
I have not seen anyone of my friends doing this job. It is very good, however, we dont have enough skill and knowledge to finish the job on time or attract a good number of people. Therefore, we decide to do many other things rather than affiliate marketing

It's a false thought, instead of thinking about your experience, you should find ways to do it. All of us have no experience, experience only comes when we experience, so, we will have experience if we start it. No one can say that they have experience if they have not experienced it.
Trying out things for the very first time is not bad because we can able to experience if we can handle it or not because its normal for a person do find some things difficult which are not and speaking about affiliate marketing i do really said that it wont really work out on every person because it does depend on the interest and skills of a certain individual on this kind of field.
8195  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why Is Bitcoin Gambling Industry So Successful in the World? on: May 12, 2017, 02:56:56 AM
More people are interested into gambling but the regulations within the country doesn't allow them to be a part of the industry. Now bitcoin has helped them overcome these issues and play easily. Also the on time settlement is quite good than the gambling websites functioning with fiat. One who start using bitcoin gambling websites will never think of playing  with fiat anymore.
Bitcoin does break that barrier on which most people prohibits them on playing gambling online and not only that the payment options like using your card is really a compromised thing regarding on our identity which means when bitcoin do exist already on gambling world then its really a great or big innovation which most gambler do really like to use it and they would not ever comeback on using their cards again.
8196  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is better? To gamble or to invest? on: May 11, 2017, 05:49:19 PM
I think investing is more risky than gambling because most of investing websites are just scam, but in gambling you have better chances to make your bitcoin grow. How about you guys what do you think?
It is much better to invest than to gamble because in a long run your money will grow and the risk of losing is to low it will be profit for you that will be useful in your daily life rather than gambling.

Actually it is a subjective question, for some people who like to gamble for entertainment purpose then gambling is better than investing as there is no fun on investing. But for others who want to make profit in long term then investing is better than gambling.
So, which one is better? Depends on ourselves.
True, comments or selections would really differ since people do have different minds which we would really expect different answers related to this question.Yes, investing might be boring but its still better because we do earn money while on gambling we do lose money,its just like that, people sometimes do play gambling for entertainment dont minding on the money they spent as long they do enjoy.
8197  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If only.... on: May 11, 2017, 05:01:13 PM
Just wanted to share my experience of bitcoin with the recent price rises.

I bought £15000 worth of bitcoin at 3 different stages back in November 2013 when the price went sky high from the tens, to the hundreds then up over $1000.  Think I bought at $300, $600 and $1000 or something, can't exactly remember. 

Anyway the price plummeted as we know but I held on for the long term.  But then I lost my job, had a holiday in the US planned and held out for months until I had no choice but to sell. I sold all 27 bitcoins for £7000 meaning I lost £8000 overall.

I didn't want to sell as I would have rather kept them with a chance of either making money one day or losing it all, rather than sell immediately and lose £7000.  Price continued to drop below $300 so in some way I was happy i didn't lose more but when it stabilized at $250 and stayed there for what seemed like ages I knew it had a future and would go up again one day.  But I couldn't bring myself to throw more money at it.
 
Anyway today my 27 bitcoins would have been worth £37000 and a nice £22000 profit.  Oh well.  Undecided


That situation do the right stuff for you to secure some money or cut lose and its not really a regretful decision afterall because its being used on important thing i suppose. Back on previous years of bitcoin its really risky to buy because prices cant be known it will sudden pump and crash back in a short period of time which we wont really expect but for now bitcoins price movements its somehow having a good support cant easily be crashed or pump anytime.
8198  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does experience matter in gambling? on: May 11, 2017, 04:36:43 PM
Yes ,that is why there are mistakes to correct what wrong moves you do .So the next tine you played you may correct it if you know how to but if not you will experience again . Gambling is a trial and error for you to have a good analysis in the next game.

I dont think that it is a matter of trial and error because it is only luck. Trial and error means you could get better the next time you play this thing but I dont see how it could make you better the next time. It is just a game that is designed to have fun with and you can get profit from it if you are lucky

Experience useful in gambling. At least to strengthen our predictions on what we will play. Although luck is main thing in gambling, but experience will help us.
Agree, experience does really help specially on some games which do really need experience and skills and you are right even though most games do rely on luck but experience is a helpful tool for us to increase winning chances by making some prediction according to our experience.Its somehow an advantage over others who are totally newbie on gambling thing.
8199  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: BTC getting too expensive to gamble with on: May 11, 2017, 02:38:50 PM
I agree, btc gambling is very expensive now. It has a very high price already and also it continues to rise. As of now btc price is nearing $2,000 dollar and $1,800 dollar on some exchanges. It is good for gambling site, but it is not good on players.

so i think if we want to playing gambling, we only need the money that we are ready to getting loss because if we don't prepare to get loss, no matter how long you played, we can loss big money and the bad situations can be happen without we realize. i think its wise to use only small amount of bitcoin to playing gambling and if we can gets win, we should make a range or limit in how much we can stop the games and don't be greedy.
just like on trading, having stop loss is always advisable to prevent more lose on a particular day on playing gambling.If you cant afford to lose up huge money or shall we say you are in doubts on spending your bitcoin because its already valuable or high price as of now then get only a percentage on that amount and lend it just to play gambling no other than that and dont really seek out for profits just only for pure entertainment.We can always equate our bitcoin to fiat so it wont matter if the price would go up.

I've just read an interesting article about popularity of Bitcoin gambling. The article identifies six reason why Bitcoin gambling is that successful. Bitcoin casinos started being successful in 2012. The 1st​ most successful casino was Satoshi Dice,​ which is a simple site that offers gamblers access to various dice rolling games. This surprising success sets precedent for the gambling industry. Full Article
Bitcoin gambling industry booms up because of bitcoin anonymity and the accessibility of making deposits and withdrawals and people do find it very easy and comfortable.Its the start on where bitcoin based gambling sites pops out every now and then when they saw that there are lots of potential players on using their site and also we know that gambling sites would remain profitable as long there are players who are willing to lose up their money.
