8241  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do any people gamble under the age of 18? on: April 17, 2017, 04:46:38 PM
In fact, the number of gamblers under age (under 18) that very much. Internet was too broad, too easily accessible, and most people already have the tools to access it, at least most people already have mobile phones. On the Internet also too easy for us to manipulate the identity, so that the minors could falsify their age, making older in order to access it.

You're right. Its not even a question anymore if any minor is gambling as it already is a proven fact. Especially with the emergence of online gambling. Parents should be more vigilant and they have to make their kids understand what gambling is and the effects it may have on them as there would be hardly anyway to make kids avoid contact with gambling

You invest all the profit, back into the gambling and if you lose, you lose all. So thats not a good way to play gambling. You should keep your profits out of gambling to be able to enjoy the money you won.
Out of greedy, almost every gambler is going to reinvest their profits for continuing their gambling with bigger bet amount so that they could reach their targets in very quick time itself. As long as we are not leaving off this kind of mentality, we could never get chances to withdraw.

Because our greedy will never find a limit and we will never stop our gambling. Only losses will be the stopping point, but unfortunately no gambling site will allow to withdraw zero balances  Shocked

Well i think its ok to keep some amount in your bankroll but you also have to make something out of your winnings. I know its hard to take it all out and withdraw especially if you're on a winning run so just keep a decent amount to keep playing then withdraw most of your earnings. Treat yourself, your family or your friends.
8243  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Play with your profit or not? on: April 17, 2017, 04:34:41 PM
You should stop gambling after you have doubled your bankroll. Luck will not be with you all the time especially when you had made such a large profit in a short time.
It would be best to calm and count your winnings before deciding when to gamble again.
Indeed, its the wisest decision if you know that you are winning in the games you've better stop at once so your winning price would not turn into nothing then live the original budget amount to yiur bankroll.

You are getting deluded by these ideologies, stop when you double your bankroll or bitcoins or when you have half of your bankroll. Think of it, when you say that stop from doubling your bankroll means that you are aiming to double your bankroll so you will not stop unless your bankroll is doubled, right? And doubling your bankroll is not easy like saying it, it is hard and very unpredictable, everything may happen from your gambling activity. But it will be ending up with two results, it is either you lose, or you win.

There's a point in aiming for doubling your bankroll,it is right to plan or put some ranges on the value to lose or to win, but if that moment we notice or realise that it impossimble,its better to specify the amount to target ,amount that is believable to yourself beside you know your limit and kindly based it on your capital,most of the time those who bet higher have more the ability to make their winnings higher.

If I can win 100% of the initial capital, I always limit the gains of up to 50% victory alone, in this case I just risked everything several times, but not for every day. Yes you are right, it is a personal decision, but I believe if we doubled the lead more than 50% will only result in bad luck and defeat.
It depends on how much the capital is I think and also how fast you want to achieve that. If you are going to gamble, you could easily do that with just one bet and it will be a hard decision because it will just get blown in one go (if you lose).

That's right so i think its really situational. Assuming that you actually made profit, then it would be a wise idea if you keep whatever amount your capital is and play woth your winnings. Though you can't really do that all the time becase surely you're not going to win all the time.
8244  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to control greed on gambling? on: April 17, 2017, 04:31:19 PM
When we play gambling, than it is normal that we become greedy. Because everyone play gambling to earn money and in this way, if we become greedy than sometime we win in behalf of our greediness.
That's not normal actually, you can play gambling without being greed. And I do believed not all player in gambling are become greed in a long run. Some of them are just played for fun and happiness only not to become addict or greed.
Sometimes it can't be controlled because we are imperfect. We want to have our own benefits and probably earn a lot because we know we can. It's going to be hard but we know it can be helped.
- Gambling activities in the long run will make us become more greedy, we can hardly control our greed because we do not recognize it, we do not know when greed will control us. Casinos are probably where our greed is stronger and out of control, we are never satisfied with the amount of money we earn because we are not perfect, if we are perfect, gambling will never win us. The number of players for fun is only fun for a short time, if they play long term, they will also become addicted and become greedy

I don't think so. Some people are really prone to greediness but mostly these are people who have less control over their emotions and are easily swayed by results. Also people who put material thing in high value also are the ones usually succumbing to greed. Its not appliccable to all gamblers though as therr are also those who are fond of gamblig but know when its time to call it quits.

Good matcbups for the first round and we've already seen upsets by lower seeds though they may all have been evenly matched. For the east it probably would still be cleveland to come out on top but i'm hoping the bucks can go a bit further. The west may very well be seeing the warriors and the spurs again. We have strong teams in the west but consistency by these two would see them meeting each other.
8246  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: April 17, 2017, 04:21:46 PM
Houston Rockets 118 - 87 Oklahoma City Thunder

A 31-point blowout, what's up with that?

I'm a fan of OKC especially Russell Westbrook. But with this game I'm very disappointed but on the other hand, I'm happy too. Why? Because the OKC shouldn't be always hoping for Westbrook to be on beastmode, each of them should contribute for their matches to come. This is a good lesson for the whole team and congrats to Rockets.

Houston There is a very good team at home but in this match there was no team in Oklahoma City sense. We can say that James Harden has found very comfortable numbers.

Russell Westbrook was defeated when he did not show much influence. But in the next game we will get better, I hope we are watching some more competitive game.



I agree. This game basicallly showed us the difference between the rockets and okc. Russ may very well be the regular season mvp but with the support that harden is getting from his teammates, they're likely to be the team to progress to the second round if russ' teammates would continue to make it a russell westbrook solo show. The playoffs is a whole new ball game so if they don't step up its going to be a short first round for okc
8247  Other / Archival / Re: Do you think that you're addicted to gambling? on: April 17, 2017, 04:17:15 PM
"Thinking" you are addicted or not to gambling would really not help in this case, because being addicted can be described in different ways. Say you have been gambling for fun without putting in your own money, then doing so cannot be considered addiction because you will probably not do it all the time, but it isn't similar when you get in with your capital because the more you lose, the more you will dive in unless you go broke, that's what should be called an addiction.

I agree on what you have said, especially when you have said that this will not help in this case, I mean I don't get what are we going to get in this right? Let's say that we are an addicted on gambling, so what? does this help? NO, I think it would be better if the question would be "Do you think you are addicted on gambling? If yes, then are you planning to quit?", because in this way, it would make sense more than the other one, and we could give more advice and opinions about it.
Well i guess you're right dude. The question of are we addicted or not can be answered by simple yes or no and we may very well be reading the same reasons for people's outlook towards gambling. Though that may be used for another thread don't you think? People here are mostly gamblers so the responses from different people are still interesting to read
8248  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: YOU REALIZE OR NOT ? on: April 17, 2017, 04:13:27 PM
hi guys
you realize that lately rampant gambling using a means of payment with bitcoin and alt coin?
or you just enjoy it?
in my mind often arise some questions
have you ever thought the same as I?
and we are all aware that bitcoin is a virtual currency that may be said multi function to perform all types of online payments
I realized, the advantages of Bitcoin as security (anonym) Bitcoin payments can be made without personal information tied to the transaction which was originally intended offers strong protection against identity theft so that there is no unwanted or unnoticed charges as can happen with other payment methods.

The fact that we can gamble despite not giving our personal information, I think that is awesome. Gambling with bitcoin is the most convenient way of gambling and I believe more gamblers will adopt with this system. Ever since I knew bitcoin I did not gamble anymore using fiat like the old ways because I am already satisfied with the services and it's more fun because I can choose more games to play.
All gambler has know must give their information for gambling and i dont think now bitcoin has taking over fiat in gambling industry. ones reason some gambler is lazy to use bitcoin because they must convert bitcoin/fiat in exchanger.

Well i don't see why it would be hard to use btc at all. When it comes to gambling, btc may well take over any currency as it is better suited for gambling because of its anonymity which definitely is what most gamblers would prefer instead of providing private information. I myself trust btc more now when making online bets.
8249  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If money would not be a problem, would you still gamble? on: April 17, 2017, 04:09:54 PM
If money would not be a problem, Of course i will still gamble. Even if its a problem, I try to gamble.  Cheesy  Because I always enjoying gambling, I consider it like a source of fun. Not for profit. So even if i lose, It's no problem, The important is when i play.

It's good to see that most of the comments in this thread are similar to this one. Indeed gambling is fun and as long as you treat it like that you have no problem with it.

Gambling is a sickness for those who want to make money with it and it's fun for those who just want to have fun. It is of interest to note that neither former no latter ones would stop gambling in any case.
Thats a passion of playing gambling and having an entertainment on it. Im not similar to them because if i am rich i will built a gambling , a good way of having fun for me and at the same time having a profit on it. In the point of even if its a problem to still gamble ,thats not a good way even we say it a minimal problem. Gambling may have some part to relax our mind but its not actually a good thing.

You know what, that actually is a good idea. I mean of course there will be less of a challenge if you're gambling in your own casino but definitely you'd still benefit from it. If you have that much money i consider that a wise choice especially if you're the type of impulsive gambler. This is to make sure you don't go way overboard and lose your wealth in the process
8250  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What attract you to make deposit in a casino ? on: April 17, 2017, 04:06:33 PM
Please comment like this:

Design (from 1 to 10 ?)
Games (from 1 to 10 ?) elaborate what you like .
Promotions (from 1 to 10 ? ) elaborate what you like .
Live support (from 1 to 10 ? )


you  can add more in details.
thank you!

Games and design would probably be the top 2 for me rated 10 and 8 respectively considering the that 10 is the highest. Of course the games catered should be those that i have high interest in and the overall design and how userfriendly it is would be a big factor. Then live support would be a 7 as it is very important the issues can be seen to as soon as possible. I don't really think about promotions as i rarely use it so that would be the least
8251  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: a new strategy for dice (all or nothing or double or nothing!) on: April 17, 2017, 04:01:46 PM
This is a pure luck strategy, I have done this few times when I was bored and I was only claiming the faucet and playing but this is completely based on luck. You get lucky and get few win streaks and make a profit, on the other hand, you can just lose in the first try and stop. It's kinda useless to say that its a strategy to make profit, it can be called a fun way to gamble.

Any strategy besides that one is still can consider as pure luck strategy too. All strategy are giving a gambler a guide on his gameplay but that not means that it will the probability of it's winning. Unless you increase the winninh chance rate then it is basically helps boost your chance of winning.Even though you used different strategy you can't tell that it is not a pure luck. What only matters on gambling is what will be the result at the end of your game. So basically gambling especially dice game is just a pure luck.

Well just as op said, its supposed to be for pure fun. It dorsn't matter whether we think its luck or not but having to come upnwith a strategy and in a way seeing positive results definitely makes gambling a lot more fun even with games such as dice.
8252  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: It is not worth it, right? on: April 17, 2017, 03:56:00 PM
It is true gambling has only few benefits for us. But people do gambling, because in it, a lot of attraction are here to earn money. That the reason people attract on it and start to play gambling, But gambling always give to people only few benefits, like we earn money or benefits from gambling behalf of our luck, otherwise only lose.     

Gambling ahould not in any way be attributed to earning money because it doesn't give you a steady chance to do so. You can win a couple of amount but if you're thinking if it as a way of making then you're making a bug mistake. Its not only sometimes that uoy xan lose, its most of the time.
8253  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quit Gambling for Good, think for your loved ones on: April 17, 2017, 02:19:13 PM
Thinking on your love ones will be a big help for you to quit ,But it wont work if you are not determined to quit .So i think the best thing is to convince yourself ,change your ways ,your activities in gambling and make a healthy living have fun in some games indoor and outdoor without gambling .Ofcourse spend time with your family than in gambling.

Yeah i agree. It depends on how much you actually value your family and loved ones over the things that you really can live without. If you're a family person then there won't be any second thoughts if you're given a choice between your family and gambling. Different people have different outlooks toward gambling and family life
8254  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What gambling method are you using for Dice? on: April 17, 2017, 02:08:55 PM
When Im addicted into gambling before I used martingale techniques but it always turns out to lose the game. Often used change of settings but always lose the game. After that I stop playing dice and Im thankful I know I can earn here in signature campaign.
Dice game never give us profit, this matter everybody knows, but still, people play gambling. Once they had personal experience, then they realize that dice game is not profitable. And later they come up with this decision what you did. There is no strategy will help you to make money in a dice game.

Well most people who get addicted to dice are the ones who've experienced winning streaks or won a big amount on a roll. So even if the losses comes in they still believe that they can earn and win again. Dice gives you a 50/50 chance of winning as it is but if you throw in the house edge then you're playing a game where the losing is much probable that winning
8255  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: April 15, 2017, 02:44:27 PM
Memphis Grizzlies Vs San Antonio Spurs

This game looks to be an under points for me at first glance. Both teams are defensive teams and their games usually end up in under points most of the time. This is the first game of the playoff.
I predict both teams will be more defensive than usual as neither teams will want to lose the first game. I am going for under 190.5 points here.

Well it will be quite interesting to see the gasols in a playoff series. I'm going to bet on who's going to win this round and my money's on the spurs. Why? Basically because of kahwi. He's going to be the xfactor and i think the spurs are in for a good post season run this year. I consider them the dark horse in the west lurking just behind gsw

I don't think it's right to hastily execute these people just because the drug being used is close to expiring. Though they may be criminals, it's still a bit inhumane to hurriedly execute them for this reason. I'm not really for death penalty except for severe crimes such as murder and rape but it has to be implemented humanely
8257  Other / Politics & Society / Re: What Donald Trump Can Do With North Korea - Melania Is In New York Now on: April 15, 2017, 02:13:23 PM
China invited the Koreans to renounce nuclear weapons and to guarantee their safety. After the same security guarantee for Ukraine in 1994, Russia, UK and USA we know how that ended. What do you think will respond to North Korea?
I am sure that the government of North Korea will not listen to anyone. People already already consider their ruler a deity. Perhaps it is from this country that the third world war will begin.

Well I think kim is just one small wrong move away from getting his ass kicked. And if us attacks, nokor would most likely be on it's own as it's known allies like china would have second thoughts on helping out as kim hasn't been listening to anyone concerning his nuke tests even to china. And to think that this happened after trump met with xi jinping.

Well even with that army and manpower, still it doesn't stand a chance if the us will proceed to get rid of kim. And i agree with the people here as to why is democratic when you hardly see any choice given to the people there. People are executed on a whim by the crazy kim, including high ranking officials. Highly possible that majority of the population would even be happy if kim is toppled

Afghan authorities Saturday reported a jump in fatalities from the American military's largest non-nuclear bomb, declaring some 90 Islamic State fighters dead, as US-led ground forces advanced on their mountain hideouts. "At least 92 Daesh (IS) fighters were killed in the bombing," Achin district governor Esmail Shinwari told AFP on Saturday. Shinwari insisted there were "no military and civilian casualties at all".

i find that too good to be true as the scale of this bomb most likely would take several civilians with it. It's sad that in order for us to eliminate these terrorists, civilians who have done nothing wrong would have to be affected. And these people most likely are looking to the us for help

Kim Jong-Un unveiled a massive skyscraper complex during a ceremony in Pyongyang on Thursday.
 Thousands of cheering North Koreans watched as their leader opened the Ryomyong Street development, which includes more than 5,000 flats.

LOL. nice view from a selected. Of course Pyongyang would be depicted as this And I wonder how many of those cheering north Koreans are cheering out of real glee or just forced to cheer for their leader. I don't think the people of nokor are feeling genuine admiration and love for kim. Highly possible that he's ruling from fear. Few tourists also flying there especially now that the us is slowly closing in.
