I search for the site since you didnt put a link : maybe this site you are talking to http://www.ettagames.io (correct me if im wrong). As ive seen this is a baccarat game which is based on ETH payment options. If you do find out that theres only small people who do play on the site then the common reason is the lack of interest and the second one is that you didnt put emphasis on the marketing on your site which only several players do aware on this site.

I don't think that anyone have surety that he will never lose money especially in gambling. Usually we have concept that we always have lost too much only on gambling. Then you wanna make some gambling site where everyone play gambling with no bankroll. That's why you are saying it is save way where you have less lose and i agree on it, but we have less lose and big winning is possible that rely on luck.

I agree and in gambling one is bound to lose money that is for sure - otherwise what profits will be there for the casino? Then again people do believe that they can make millions from gambling. The fact is that no one can have a clean green streak without any losses. That is not possible especially in gambling. People have to think over their decisions and thus they are error-prone and make mistakes being unlucky and so on.
You cant find a gambling site on which it has a player that do always win or shall we say do make perfect bets and as being said we are really destined or bound to lose on gambling knowing that this is a game of chances and there are only two outcomes which is losing and winning and come to think off that winning anytime is possible then you are wrong we would definitely lose money on playing gambling and it cant really be avoided.

Hey everyone. How many of you play at a bitcoin casino? Do you play at mBitcasino? DO YOU GUYS FEEL CHEATED EVER SINCE BITCOIN PRICES SKYROCKETED?! If yes I would like to hear your story. Because I feel as if I have been CHEATED thousands of dollars. Roughly at least 10k.... and with such came a huge amount of never ending consecutive losing spins that are so consistent as it feels as if RNG is not applied, more like scripted is what I would recall it.
Only butt hurt gamblers will cry later when they do lose their money on playing gambling which they would definitely think off that they are being cheated if they saw that their wallet is empty already but when the times they are winning im sure they wont say such thing instead they will say that the site is legit. This is just a common thing on gambling field on where there are gamblers cant really accept their defeat.
8264  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Should we risk mining bitcoins ? on: August 23, 2017, 02:59:52 PM
i will love to hear opinions from everyone, do you think its worth it? should we risk mining the cryptocurrency ?
It would really be worth it if you do have the money to put on it (Large scale mining) and also consider the price or cost of electricity on your place, it would be much worth if its cheaper because in this case you would really end up on being profitable and reaching ROI in a short period of time. If you do have the money to spend, why not? As long you do know on what you are doing.
8265  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you consider trading as gambling? on: August 23, 2017, 02:35:05 PM
No. Of course, there are risks in trade, but for successful profit making, you need to spend a lot of time getting knowledge and analysis. There are many traders who successfully make a profit, unlike gambling.
Trading will kill more time, but it is profitable in the long term if we learn in depth in trading. Spending the time to learn to trade is not a waste of time it is more useful and worth. But the same spending time in gambling is just time pass there is no use from this gambling except you will get some relaxation from your stress and will get fun. But sometimes both need luck to make money this is common in both trading and gambling.

Indeed spending time to learn how to trade you can improve your skills in that filed. With gambling the more time you spend the worse your situation become, because you might think you invented a winning strategy but in reality it will be just another "strategy" which will let you down at some point and you will lose all you have.
Gambling does not need more time to make your skills develop because you can do that in just a short period of time if you are really good.
Trading is different, it's a real market and you are not playing against a site, you are playing on the real market movement and no housed edge on that matter so you have a better chance to be profitable. You can easily develop your skills as there with experience, you can read a lot of vital information shared from masters in trading and the more you keep yourself knowledgeable, you have a big chance to improve.

Although I don't think that house edge has a big impact on our chances to win, I agree with you in general. Experience matters big time in trading, while in gambling it can be to your disadvantage. Sometimes I think trading is very much like gambling but in fact there are differences which were mentioned in this thread.
For you house edge wont give an impact but for some they do really believe that this is the one what makes them lose on playing gambling.We do see small percentage on edge but it does really affect on our winning rate.Trading would really be like gambling if you dont know on what you are doing because you will just likely throwing your money on the air and just let others earn while you are losing.
8266  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Giving up gambling is not easy on: August 23, 2017, 01:54:42 PM
From gambling it is difficult to refuse if there is already a serious dependence or a person constantly expects them to make a profit. If you take them as entertainment, then you can easily refuse.
But the fact is now that gambling is not an entertainment anymore. Gambling becomes a stupid job for some people who want to earn money quickly. But with a high enough risk
Sad but its true on which there are really people who make gambling as a job anymore on which they do engage with it since they know they can able to make money with it without minding the possible outcome that would happen to them.Instead on making money they would end up just like donating free money on gambling site owners which are truly who are making money in the end.

What can you say about this rematch? The match is locked on but there will be things to be set before settling an exact date and venue.
Source : http://www.bbc.com/sport/boxing/40972273
I would definitely say that Pacquiao would really won the rematch for sure in that case there would be a 1-1 standing and next step? Would be the 3rd fight on where the decision on who would be stronger pacquiao or horn and as always we are talking money here and its always been part on this industry this is why i dont trust boxing anymore regarding on the results.

Is faucet farming really such a big deal for casinos ? How much could they possibly lose I mean it's a faucet the amount of traffic you get from a faucet farmer should far outweigh the cost surely ?

Yes, it is a big deal.  Paying up to .5 Bitcoin a month to people that have zero interest in actually using your service is a huge bill to swallow.
Why add a faucet then?

Silly question,,,
Purpose of faucet : to let players try the game for free without any risk (new players) and to give a small reward for loyal players who have spent their money on the site. But many people try to abuse it for their own profit.
Not so silly. Usually casinos have "play money" games. But by adding a faucet, and taking into account the connotations of "free money" it has in the Bitcoin ecosystem, people may think it's okay to "farm casino faucets".
People do really think on different ways. Some may treat it as a try outing the game of the site but for some they would really see that they can make money out of it in the way on abusing it.Dumb thing to do for most of us but on some its a good way to make money.Thats how it works and in case of op if admins said that theres a case of abusing the faucet then its really a violation and admin would really have the rights to block or freeze account.
8269  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is it possible for a country to block bitcoins (or even the whole cryptos) on: August 22, 2017, 11:23:04 AM
Just like the title says, is it possible to block crypto currencies if the government decides to?

They could enforce the ISP to block online payments made or something like that, is it possible?

Its possible to block some sites that do related on crypto or any other services related to it but its impossible to block it completely or restrict people on engaging on it. We do know there are lots of ways to access without being traced or blocked. Theres vpn services specially on using Tor too, you can access anytime without their awareness no matter how hard they try to block. Its impossible to isolate such thing.
8270  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to spot a gambler addicted? on: August 22, 2017, 10:57:39 AM
If a person can not live a single day without gambling, in spite of the fact that he loses a lot of money in them, then he definitely already has a dependence with which he can no longer cope.

i think he can not controlled his self and it makes him playing gambling in every day and no matter he win or loss, he don't care and he only want to playing gambling. actually there is many sign that will show one person is addicting in gambling or not but i guess i don't know too much so i think i only can identify what i wrote.
The thing that can stopped a certain person on playing gambling is on the times that he dont have any money on his pocket to play further on gambling. This is a normal thing since we do need money in order to play.When gambling addiction is severe you would really do unwise things and would really compromise your financial state instead of using it on important thing you would eventually use them solely on gambling which is really a disastrous decision.
8271  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: It is not worth it, right? on: August 22, 2017, 10:35:04 AM
Those expectations would really be broken up on which we do know that gambling do really works on this way. We might get some winning games but later on we would really suffer loss even more and theres nothing to be surprised of since this is just a normal thing on gambling.Benefits that i can see on gambling is those real life realizations and learnings when you are already got broke because of it.
Those are the risks that you should be willing to take, knowing that you are trying to win money against a casino that has the power to increase the chances of the player's losses or something but I don't know if they really do that. What ever happens, I think it's better to spend time and money towards something that would really benefit you in the long run like investments or something.
If you are a sensible person and do really think of on the importance of your own money then you will surely think on that way but there are people who do have the money which they can put on investments and at the same time they do play gambling. It would really depend on persons control on how he gonna handle these things.
8272  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: It is not worth it, right? on: August 22, 2017, 10:12:01 AM
I think when they lose the things that they can't afford to lose. Realization is always in the end. People tends to be more agressive and impulsive these days. They do things without proper analysis and without thinking what would be the consequences of their actions. They only realize the flaws of their actions after they lose something valuable to them.


People always do things like that because when we are angry , we cant control ourselves. That is why the rules of this life is simple. Never reply when you are angry, never make a decision when you are sad and never promise anythig when you are happy because if you are not calm then you cant make decision
You are right, In the emotion time good or bad, Make decision is not good, mostly when you are angry. Sometimes people make false decisions that keep them in troubles and destroy his life, because he can't control himself.

So to avoid this kind of things, we should control ourself first, and then make decisions.
yes that is right that for taking decision you must be cool minded and only then you can become succeeded in your life. in fact most of the people e do not take decision in right time and most of the time they take decision when they are too much emotional  and therefore they are not succeeded in their life.

It is too hard to have cool mind if you lose the money that you have deposited on a certain gambling site, you are going to be pissed by this, you will start to being greedy just to win all back what you have lost, but maybe we could have this cool mind after losing if we are setting a limit of amount that we will use in gambling for a day.

Of course all of us had lost our cool specially if we see losses. That's the feeling that we don't want ourselves to get in. But that is gambling, we bet and hope that we are  going to won, but unfortunately, this will not happen the way we want it to be.
Those expectations would really be broken up on which we do know that gambling do really works on this way. We might get some winning games but later on we would really suffer loss even more and theres nothing to be surprised of since this is just a normal thing on gambling.Benefits that i can see on gambling is those real life realizations and learnings when you are already got broke because of it.
8273  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling addiction. on: August 21, 2017, 01:10:39 PM
One factor that is a reason for gamblers becoming addicted, particularly early on in their gambling life, is the experience of an early big win. The buzz is winning such a large amount can sometimes be overwhelming and the fact it arrives so early means that the player thinks it is easier to land such wins than what it is in reality. The big wins from a little psychologically control to their minds and they are being addicted to gambling.
It will really affect you psychologically specially when you first tried out on playing gambling and then you won then for sure that first one would really mark up in your mind that making money on playing gambling is quiet easy and this kind of beliefs will really mold you up to be a gambling addict later on.There are most people would really fall on this one but there are some who can able to manage theirselves on their first try outs.
8274  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin as Online Gaming Currency on: August 21, 2017, 12:31:14 PM
For online gamers and at the same time bitcoiners, don't you think it's fun if online games will adapt bitcoin as their currencies?

MMORPG will be much fun if bitcoin will be used to purchase items/gears you're longing to acquire.

Selling items you have exerted effort to farm and you will receive btc as payment is quite exciting.

I'm referring to direct trading in the market of any MMORPG using BTC.

Just a thought though :-)
This idea is great but wont really happen since those companies wont really bother to give out bitcoin for the sake of farmed items but eventually you can purchase in-game items or credits with the use of bitcoin. It do works on opposite way, just like on steam they do accept bitcoin as a payment but not on making bitcoin out of the game.Maybe there are some that i missed but im sure that you would able to earn little amount of satoshis and im sure its not MMROPG.
8275  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How many Bitcoins needed for martingale on: August 21, 2017, 11:14:29 AM
I already tried that in several online gambling sites but it's really not working. Maybe half an hour, you feel like you are controlling the game but a couple of minutes more you are on your maximum bet and poof , all is gone. Huge bankroll also doesn't work because 20x continuing losses only apply but not 20x continuing wins.
I not yet experience 20x loosing streak and I don't want too but if you start at the lower price and if you have more btc I think it might work for some time but not as always.
If you have big bankroll you will definitely experience 20x or more losing streak even on 1 sat bet you will lose up huge amounts of BTC when 20 or more streaks would hit you this is why martingale is very risky to use specially when you are just letting it on without your appearance because if you decide to leave it to roll and when you come back be ready to see a 0 balance.
8276  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Simulator for cryptocurrency trading ??? on: August 21, 2017, 10:19:27 AM
I think SimpleFX has demo accounts.

A lot of Forex platforms, if not all, have the option to have a Demo account.
At least the ones related to crypto, as i know like Whaleclub or 1Broker and of course SimpleFX.

Thanks a lot!
To your mind, what is the difference between them and could you advice the best one? May be one of them is more easy to use or has any other advantages.
I didnt even tried to make use of Whaleclub but on 1Broker i have tried it and its quiet user-friendly and you can easily make use of the site even if you are a complete beginner and SimpleFx is quiet complicated if you dont know how to read the signs or definitions but its also a good place on practicing since they do have demo account and i did practice there on trading too. Just choose on the platform which would really suits you.
8277  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Primedice or Fortune Jack? on: August 21, 2017, 09:15:36 AM
Basically you can't go wrong with FortuneJack.

They got tons of games not only dice. Dice will and can get boring after a while so you got plenty of other games to choose from.

For more info you should see the official FortuneJack thread at
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=774929.0

Absolutely correct, Its not only dice game you can able to play from the site but a wide of variety of games you can find and not only that there are lots of promotions too and do have a very active community and very active admins/supports.
8278  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: can gambling give you lessons in life? on: August 20, 2017, 01:13:08 PM
Gambling might have disadvantages but it also have advatages. Gambling can teach you how to manage your money, patience and improve your sens about loosing or winning; you will know when it's the right time to make your move.
The most important lesson we have to do is how we manage our money. How do we think about risks that could happen in the future, because gambling is full of risks.
Money is the main use in gambling but the people who take risk at start to double his money and when they finally lost its either they realized or learn something or nothing. What the most important lesson that we can gain ingambling is our attitude and mindset on the things that we are risking.
It can really give realizations later on when we are already experiencing the consequences of it. We know gambling most of the time we do lost our money if we arent lucky enough.It does really change our views and attitude later on this would not only to be applied on gambling field but also in our normal living too.Lessons would really comes after a defeat or being burned by gambling.
Perhaps that will be a possible consequence and gamblers most often realized it when they are in worst but for me it depends on the people not all gamblers realized and learn from being defeated more times sometime people leave gambling with just losing 2-3x only.
This is true on which there are people do really behave or decide on this way on which once they do lose on gambling for a several times they can easily quit and not engage with it again which i can say that they are wise enough and smart enough to know the risk thats why they decide to stop completely and dont tend to wait for the consequences to come into them.

Hi guys!
We all know that gambling is not only a fun but also potential danger. So are you limiting yourself somehow when gambling? DO you use casino's instruments to prevent you spending more money?
Or do you just limit yourself by setting a certain amount of money to spend? Or you don't limit yourself at all?
Thanks for sharing!
Cheers,
Yours OshiHugo, Oshi.io CM

I limit my self when gambling. It's really hard to gamble with all of your money. I don't really take gambling seriously, I usually just gamble to play with my friends and to have fun. I think that gambling is made for entertainment, and it's stressful if you gamble and just think of the money.

Which makes stress is when gambling and we lose all the money that is owned, regardless of us gamble with whom good friends, other people and gambling online. Because stress is related to what we miss
It's not safe to always think about the money because it's not everything. It shouldn't be the one that dictates your actions because it could lead to catastrophic events in your life. Not only that it could lead you astray with decisions, it would make your friends wary of you, that's why we need limits.
You do have a point on which money isnt everything but when a certain person do plays gambling majority would already think of this thing which money would really be anything and would be the main target and sad to say its the reality why most people do play gambling. Limitation is always been suggested but once we are on the battlefield we would definitely forget those limitations we do set.
