8521  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did you learn from your gambling mistakes? on: November 06, 2017, 10:00:08 AM
The important lesson that I learned from gambling with bitcoin is you should not be greedy and the end result always has the dependence upon the luck. However hard you make strategies, you need luck to experience the win. Because most of the events I participate were sports betting.
there's really a fun time with sports betting mate, because even the under dogs are winnings previously, i learned that not because strong team
have its advantage not always that they can win the game, its really luck that's bring some success inside the gambling activity.
It's the risk that you are willing to take to bet on the underdogs, then that's your choice. If you could somehow compute for the amount of win that you could make if the underdog wins, then you could would know how much would be needed to bet so that you can get back everything that you lost everytime you win. Somehow, a martingale type of betting. That's just patience and perseverance.
Betting on underdog is not always profitable, you have to understand that in sports betting you are looking for a value and sometimes underdog cannot really compete which will just give an easy win for the favorites. I do sports betting in basketball and I have tried betting on dogs before but I realize that is like blindly betting and it will not give me a long term profit, I need to determine which of the dogs and the favorites that has a good winning chance.

actually controlling greed is easy if we want to not become an addicting person in gambling but i admitted that not every person willing to learn. for some people is difficult but for the others is easy to do as long as we know how much limit of the amount we can use in gambling games. beside that, to controlling greed, we must try over and over in every time we've played so we can really control our greed and we can leave the places if we are out of our money.
People are different on anyways and on the level of greediness inside of them which we do have different views regarding on earning money or on how we do treat money.Greedy persons do have always the love of money.Some people can control it some people cant which would really result for a certain person to be addicted one.If you cant able to resist such behavior and emotion then expected you would end up on becoming addicted on it.
Greedy person always end up with a loss, that is even if you are good enough but that greediness is inside of your will still still lose since you will never be satisfied with your winnings. That is a negative attitude when it comes to gambling as the reality is, the more we gamble the more our chances gets lesser, so it's necessary to control ourselves in order not to expose our weaknesses that would cause us a big problem.
8523  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is the best way to quit gambling and start trading?? on: November 06, 2017, 07:24:52 AM
the best way to quit gambling is not visiting the place or browsing to the sites and its better you stay away from any of device you use to connect internet and doing another activity before you can start new things. i think it will works if you have a friends that is beside you when you start new things so you don't thinking about playing gambling and then after you can calm down your minds from gambling, you can go to trading sites and register and start to trading. maybe this is not work but at least you can try to quit from gambling and start new habit.
That would help you not to gamble online but as long as that feeling is still inside you will still find a way to gamble, what you need to do is accept that reality that gambling is not for you and when you gamble you will only ruin your  life. There are a lot of ways to gamble and it's not only possible online so if that urge to gamble will not be eliminated you will still gonna gamble again.

Well if you have enough money you can easily find people to help your carry your mission, capital is vital here and I think even if you are not living in the same country or are it would be possible to form a group. By the way, are you planning to start an ICO for gambling related business?

According to the schedule, the sale is over. Does that mean others missed the chance to take part  in it and cannot buy it anymore?

if you interesting to buy this token you can  buy on exchanges
this token is available on etherdelta. we just waiting RCC will be adding on big exchanges like bittrex.
I guess that won't happen easily, we have seen this coin traded in smaller exchanges like hitbtc and cryptopia and now we are expecting this to be in bittrex. I think we need to be realistic here, it's a step by step process, when more demand will be created then maybe that is the time we will see it in bittrex.
8526  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2018 NBA Season on: November 06, 2017, 05:07:58 AM
Another satisfying game given by the Minnesota Timberwolves today, they have now won 5 straight games which they haven't done for a long time now. The starters of the team showed that they can win comfortably, I really think that the fans are not used to seeing them win like this as the crowed today is not as noisy as when they are winning in close games. Looking at the performance individually I think Gorgui Dieng showed the most out of his time scoring 15 points and grabbing 11 rebounds in just 18 minutes of game play.
They have a good reserves now which makes them a very dangerous team, if you look at the scoring of the Minny, you can tell everyone know their role and that is why they are having this success now, they are good already but they just lack confidence last season and I think they have it now.
8527  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can gambling help you with your life? on: November 04, 2017, 11:35:00 AM
Gambling just for fun for me, never expect more. Because, only a few people can get rich from gambling. So, learn from it. I only play as a filler time when being saturated and that too occasionally.
Its all funbut sometimes when we never expect to win thats the time the joy we felt ofcourse the money we get from gambling is we are using it to save for the future purposes or something we want in life it is true few people can manage to win over gambling and most of people are loosing but keep tryng hard to win over all
I am okay with your this statement but don’t you think you are advising for a thing that is harmful for many here. People get into gambling and then after sometime they just become addicts. Then their fun is totally converted to money earning.

And their fond becomes life ruining tool for them. They lost their money, family and ultimately just come on roads. Don’t you?
We cannot really control how everyone would treat gambling as we have our own justification why we are doing this risky game.
Some would say they do it for fun and they did well, so I guess that depends on how honest we are to ourselves, when we keep losing and there are times that we loss control then we should acknowledge mistakes in order to correct it and to enjoy gambling for a long period of time.
8528  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why I suddenly decided to leave gambling alone. on: November 04, 2017, 11:25:56 AM
Gambling could lead us to some bad moments or bad feeling, stay away from it if it gave you those things. You're not the right one to gambling. Just investing in something else, trading, PTC ,HYIP , whatever but not gambling.

Investing money in HYIP programs is worst than gambling because most of these programs are a scam and you don't know whether you can get back at least your investments. But in gambling at least you can play those games to enjoy your free time even though you don't make money from it. Never invest money in those scam programs.
Exactly, you are just wasting your time and money and if you are investing on it you will also help in promoting so the program will run longer and you didn't realize your making also other people's lives miserable. Investing that is too good to be true will always result in scam so as an investor we should know that signs, instead if we really want to take risk then learn a skilled based gambling and develop your skills to be successful.

The Portland Blazers are facing the Lakers tonight at their home court, they had loss twice at home against a good team Clippers and the Raptors, I think today they will come up strong and  beat the Lakers in a high scoring game. Both teams are not good in defense but good offensively but the Blazers are a better team who are trying to have a win after a devastating loss against the Raptors, they need to prove they are really a playoff team so I would bet on them tonight.

Portland played overtime last night so may be a little tired.

I'll still go for Los Lakers for this time. They have good coaching and young talent right now. They also need to win every game for the fans like me. LOL A Lakers fans since birth. Lakers will make playoffs this season but not NBA Finals; Opinions? Haha
Playoffs is possible but it's impossible to reach in the NBA Finals, they need to beat good teams in the west like the Warriors, OKC, and Spurs in order for them to get their ambition. Lakers is underdog that's why it's good to bet on them but this time I think it's the Blazers that will win.

8531  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: November 02, 2017, 11:21:13 PM
It all depends on weather you already considered that money gone when you bought 1btc if you would be happy losing it all gambling which is something that could happen. If the risk is calculated you could turn that 1 into 10 btc as long as you are lucky.

When I buy 1 btc, then I am not happy about losing it in gambling. Depends on how we see this thing because for me , I can make some money from investing those 1 btc. For some people that hasnt had any hardship from gambling wont understand this. Some people need to realize that the money will be wasted if they keep on gambling and lose
That amount is huge, you should not gamble it when you cannot afford to lose it, instead just invest and you can even invest in casinos because that is already a decent amount of money. I never lose an entire btc in my life because I know my limit and at this value now it's already hard to own 1 btc even if you buy it. Majority of us are thinking of investment but we like an instant way so we tried doing it in gambling, when we get matured and we understand the difference of the two, that is only the time when we will enjoy doing both.
8532  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Should I try to win back my loss? on: November 02, 2017, 10:56:25 PM
Ha ha, not today old friend. its better i go far away the gambling table when I lost a lot of money. because if I go back, maybe I will lose more of my money.
right when we are in long run loss we better stop the game and go home. once our bad luck started it will end when we lose everything in our wallet.

Sometimes the best thing to do if you have enough money is to continue what you've started  and because of that luck you will win sometimes and when you win back over your profit then stop and come back again if think you were lucky again to play thats the real sports accept when you lose too

But the problem is often times this thing we called luck is no where to find Smiley.  Even if we are feeling lucky, the result of the game is the opposite.  So  I guess it is best to start a new, and never chase loses because it will only frustrate us and will even make us lose more since we are trying to get this losses in one go.  Better to think that loses can't be win back and just play for that moments game.  Less worries, less target less stress and less distraction.
We will get weak when we will allow our emotion to dictate us, this is gambling and we should always be smart because money is very important and we are risking it to make profit. Chasing your bets is normal but you should also set a limit to avoid losing your entire bankroll which will make you depress in the end.

Try to find things which is much more important than gambling. Its very hard to stop if you really prioritize gamble. Try to slowly erase it and fill it with your new discovered things and make it your hobby. Be persistent and patience, as time goes by, you will be slowly not craving for it and will be much more into your new hobby. I hope that the one you choose to replace the gambling should produce good result and not harm your self so that you can have a much more better life.

It is even hard to find something that you like and change it with gambling. If we keep gambling that means we like to gamble that is why it will be hard for us to get out of this. If we cant get out of it then dont strain at all but better to take it slowly like me. I dont really play alot anymore but I am still playing although with only small amount for fun
It is a mental problem for sure , you need help from an expert in that field, that is my opinion.
As no matter how many times you try to avoid and looking for a distraction , an addiction is a real big problem that you cannot handle it by yourself.
Go to an expert if you feel keep repeating the same mistake to get back to gamble again and again.
I decided to stop and enjoy my remaining profit.
That would be the best possible solution that ease my addiction on gambling that time since no matter how we chase back our winnings it might not worked as plan.  This method of realization save me from losing all my profits in gambling. I won during my first month of playing gambling then after that, I started losing weekly until I lost almost half my profit then


If you could do that then you should do it before you get back to play for more. Some people can win from gambling but not for me, I ended up losing all the time. Even if you win, you cant win all the time that is why it is better to stop while you are ahead. So you wont really have any regret for all the money that you have lose from gambling
Stopping when you are ahead is easy to say but hard to execute in reality, the fact that we always want more since we believe that we should push our luck to get back our past loses it will only make us more greedy and eventually we all end up losing in the end.
Gambling is not a game where you can get easy money, you need to beat the house which is an impossible mission to win or to still stable so you can win in the long run which normally on few will survive.
8535  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: November 02, 2017, 06:29:07 PM
I have noticed so many players are just gambling for the sake of profits only. But majority of them loses most of the games eventually as they are not smart players.

So how should we gamble in a smart way so that we do not get more frustrations due to continuous losses?
How can we play gambling in smart way? maybe its just a very hard question because gambling cannot be predicted the only way is to be observant
on the situation like that if lucky strike then go and bet big and stop if gaining more profit by winning.

When the gambling game is not based on pure luck and requires knowledge and skills, you will have more chances of predicting the outcome of the game and therefore have more chances to win that way.
That's the smart way of playing, based only on your skills because we need to be profitable and it's only possible when you apply your skills in gambling.
What is necessary is that we are devoted and we believe in all possibilities as not everyday is a winning day, we need to learn how to manage our emotion so we will stay compose and we can surpass all challenges and eventually be successful in the long run.
8536  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: November 02, 2017, 06:17:26 PM
Gambling is not wrong and in other way round it is.  Gambling is a risk because this life we are living is also a gambling. It for better for worst

It is wrong to gamble and hope to get alot of money from it but it is not really wrong to play and have fun. This is two different thing but alot of people getting mixed up on it. Some people dont care if they play for profit, I dont mind that as well but when they keep losing and keep trying to get back what they lose. That is really frustating to see for me
It's only wrong when you don't have the capacity and still you are too ambitious to make money in gambling, by saying capacity I mean you need to have a decent capital and the skills that are necessary in order to be successful in the long run. Gambling for money is only for those professional gamblers who are proven to be profitable.

Now price 1 ATL coin = $0.29  Huh Huh


This is simply an awful result of the coin price formation!
Nightmare, 1 ATL = $ 0.29, horror   

I bought them at $ 0.62 for 1 ATL. And now it turns out that I can not even sell them - I will stay in a huge minus!
It's a bad time for all altcoins, so perhaps it's simply better to HODL  Cheesy
Not just atlant but all altcoins but because bitcoin has reach again another ATH, altcoins is on dump.
We should understand that it's a normal situation and only if you are smart enough to hold you altcoins will you will be able to be successful.
Eventually after this pump, dump will follow and price of altcoins will rise, just relax and take advantage on the weak hands.
8538  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Trading vs Gambling on: November 01, 2017, 12:28:04 PM
I could not agree more with you mate. Gambling can just be one of the many places we can spend some of our money to be entertain and have fun and not necessarily make gambling as our main source of income.
Only a very few people are gambling just to be entertained and have some fun with their money. When you say that it is not necessary to make gambling as major source of income, you have to think about it again. There are so many gamblers struggling with this argument, they are supporting themselves for being a full time gambler because it is their own source of income as they are earning good with it.
A lot of people aim to become gambling as a source of income but unfortunately majority of them failed, that is because they don't have the skills or they don't play the right game where they can use their skills. There are two types of gambling which are the skilled based and luck based games, if you want a long term success you should focus on skilled based games but you need to develop yourself to improve because knowing the game alone does not guarantee a win.
8539  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know when to stop? on: November 01, 2017, 12:19:08 PM
As we know, before  gambling  everybody has  a limit, that  how  much we can afford. Gambling is a addictive activity,
It will provoke us to move further and we will continue to bet without thinking about it, and can become bankrupt in no time.
so we must limit our loss in a day, we have to stop when we reach our lost limit on that particular day.

Putting limit whenever we play gambling is good because it will help us to stop playing when we reach the loss. I always do it especially if i lose all in gambling i stop on my target loss. Sometimes if i win too i put my target win so i can stop immediately when i reach that. This is my basis when to stop.

I also do that when I was still doing gambling way back then, and just like what you have said, it helps you to minimize your loses because you will know when to stop gambling after you lose the amount that you have set as a limit, but we have different attitude when it comes to gambling, some of us don't want to quit gambling until they win the jackpot or until they are satisfied on their profits.
Those who don't set limit with their bets will most likely fail and will have a big financial problem in the end, it's just our emotion that are really dictating us to continue and we should not be a victim of our own weaknesses. Prior to gambling we should already condition our mine and emotion to be strong and always stick with the game plan, that way we are safe and we will continue to have fun.
8540  Economy / Economics / Re: Loans too risky? on: November 01, 2017, 10:03:55 AM
lending to people who are trusted here, but ultimately someone will cheat and eat up all your profits ... will end up with the price of gouging innocent customers, or ending with when someone who looks legit decided to run away with your BTC. better hold your coins or just sell them.
Honestly if I were to lend money I would not expose a big amount of money here, trust is nothing without collateral and the fact that collateral offered online is not really that valuable, borrowers can still get away from their responsibility and we cannot go after them anymore.
I would suggest lending money when you really conduct an investigation and have interviewed the borrower physically.
