Then, would it be best if they have just visit some fancy aquariums? (a certain place where you can find good quality whores) There are also some certain clubs that has VIP Rooms and they can do what they want especially gambling.
That would be the best choice if that was the aim rather than a casino LoL
That will be a side effect if they visit someplace which have a fancy aquarium lol Grin
But I am sure that the luxurious casino will have that room, and not all members can use those rooms unless they are a VIP or VVIP member who always spends a lot of money on playing gambling on that casino. Although they have those rooms, they still need to check every VIP or VVIP members and all of the employees who will enter that room, so all of them are clean from the virus.

I didn't know that we also lose our earned money from referrals if they won that bet so basically I never had experience with this kind of affiliate marketing.But here all the advantages goes to the casino but you holds risk of losing your earnings even after you worked for it.
As far as I know, the earned money from referrals is not gone if they win or lose because the money is sent to our account. But if that happens, then I think that will be a problem since we can not know if they can win or lose, and I think that is out of our expectation. Maybe the site needs to explain this, so there is no misunderstanding here.

scammers will likely fail if they are going to use thier old tricks because people nowadays are now matured and can now handle common scams . scammers now have a new trick to scam people and that trick is still unknown to most of us so be careful   .

 money is so powerful as it attracts anyone of us , its the start of greed  . please guys dont be hungry for money because the more you want it the more you will only loose   . its happy to live if you are contented  .
No, I think the old tricks will still work to get the new people who don't have much info about crypto. They can send the money to the scammers without they realize that it is just an old trick. But if the old trick does not work, they modify the trick to get the new trick or create another new trick.

Yes, money can be a good reason to attract new people who needed money. They will search for people who want to make money and trick them into spending their money to the scammers. We need to be careful before we decide something.

Two-and-a-half years ago, in one of Japanese casinos I had the good fortune to be experiencing the communication with employed robots that  acted as professional schillers in the spot. And from what I observed, their second duty was  watching the games,  but to what purpose I don't know.
Maybe the second jobs are to watching the gamblers on every table, so they can know if any gamblers cheat, and they can do something to that gamblers. I guess if social distance still exists around us in the future, we will see more robots that will watch us playing gambling or other things.

All the casinos are Packed with cameras. The number of cameras per square meter is huge. And no matter how perfect the cameras are, as well as the many places where they are placed, I think there is nothing better than professional people in the hall who are usually looking for cheaters.
I agree with that. But with the camera everywhere, that can help every security members in that place to get updated info from the office about the situations around them. The camera plus the security members will secure the place from the cheater.

Sorry but it seems like you are not seeing the revenue the government will earn from opening the casino, instead you only look at the risk.

As you can see, that 132,000 employees are depending on casino, with that number of employees, it's also easy to determine how much PAGCOR is contributing to the economy, remember this is our own casino, the profit goes directly to the government which they can use to help people affected by the pandemic, especially those who are very poor or the poorest among the poor.
I know the government's revenue from gambling is big, but that doesn't mean they can use it as a reason to reopen the casino. Maybe the government can think of another solution for the employees because I don't think that all employees can still go back to their old jobs. Besides that, it needs more concern from the government to help people affected COVID-19, but if there is no other way to get the revenue than to reopen the casino, then maybe that is the only way solution. If opening the casino is the solution, the government must manage everything before it's reopened, including protecting the gamblers who visit on every gambling places.

Not just in Canada but also here in our country. I have a friend who actually been scammed by those reputable persons, degree holders and convinced my friend to invest in bitcoin. They have fake president, fake company and fake positions. Since those persons have educational attainment, scammers nowadays are just as smart as what we do not expect they are.
 
 Good thing, the store owner in Canada warned his customer about that bitcoin investment scam. As we all know, not all knew about their trick and there will be the one who may be fall for this.
It is no surprise because money is to attract more people to comes. But unfortunately, people don't search for more information about the project, the owner, or the investment type, so they select a random project to invest their money. I guess the scammers will use the other trick to get the money, and sometimes, they use the old trick, which still can be used to trick new people. People need to educate themselves before they decide to invest in some projects to prevent scammers.

There is nothing wrong with that. The developers want to make money from crypto, and they can copycatting another project to create a new idea and get the investor. But if the investor knows that their project is not good, they will not invest in that project, and they will search for another project. There will be much more technology that will come out in the crypto space, and we need to search for the right project, and we don't have to select the similar project. That is why research is necessary, so we don't waste our money to invest in the wrong project.
8568  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Planning to make a mining rig on: June 23, 2020, 05:52:41 AM
ATM around 1100Mhs is needed for 0.1 Eth per day

Around 20 x Radeon 5700.
So 20 x 0.120kw/h * 24= 57.6 kw/day for the GPUs.

Overall i would say 3 rigs with 6 GPUs coming close to your plan.
I wonder how much money he needs to prepare to buy that hardware because I am sure that it would not be cheap as we can think. He needs to calculate the electricity fee before he buys the hardware, so he can know how big the money to invest in the investment side.

when you mine, you mine to hold your coins and take a gamble they will reach multiples of what the current price is. if youre mining to pay your electricity bill, dont bother
As long as he can mine the right and potential coins, I think he is not gambling with the coins.

@OP, you can try to check by yourself what hardware or GPU you need to buy at https://whattomine.com/

I try to use Vega64 and Radeon 5700. In Vega64, you need about 35 VGA card to make 0.1 eth/day, while you need to buy 27-30 VGA with Radeon 5700. So you need to think about the money that you will use. You can search more if you want on that site.
8569  Economy / Speculation / Re: Price of a "Satoshi" in the future? on: June 23, 2020, 05:38:02 AM
If Bitcoin continues to appreciate in value with every halving, while it scales according to demand in the mainstream world, we might be dealing with "satoshis" instead of Bitcoins in the future. Imagine Bitcoin's price going all the way to $1 million in the long term. It may be possible that 1 Satoshi will be equal to $0.01 USD if that happens. With Bitcoin being divisible to 8 decimal units, one doesn't necessarily need to have a whole Bitcoin if it goes all the way to the moon.

What do you think the price of 1 satoshi will be in the future? Will it be worth cents (in USD), or not? Your input will be greatly appreciated. Smiley
1 satoshi has a price I have been very grateful, meaning the sign Bitcoin is still valuable, imagine if satoshi has no price at all, be thankful even though Bitcoin is still at the level of $ 9000, if the price of Bitcoin at the level of $ 100000 in the next few years, Satoshi will be very valuable  Grin
Until bitcoin price can reach more than $100k or more, 1 satoshi will be worth it. But if the bitcoin price is still like what we see now, 1 satoshi will not worth enough. But if we get a profit 10k satoshi, then it is worth to save it, and we can try to make more and more 10k satoshi in many ways. The bitcoin price itself will get high in the future, and I am sure that many people are waiting for that, and they still try to make more profit in bitcoin and save it from now on.
8570  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to spot a scam ? on: June 23, 2020, 04:59:06 AM
Nowadays its easy to fake the reviews and ratings for a gambling site. Google can help you to give an idea about the specific site but its best to have other sources to verify their reputation which you can find here in the forum. Search for that gambling site and you can find the reviews and experience of gamblers. Much better to only gamble in a reputable gambling site to not get any problem when you play.
I won't trust Google to find the scam gambling sites because I think Google itself can not filter the scam sites, but reading on this forum to find the crypto gambling website will be better than searching on other websites. However, it doesn't always guarantee to get the legit gambling website since we can get a scam too from here. But it is okay if you want to search fiat gambling website, and I am sure Google will help you Wink

So we need to be careful to select the crypto gambling site, and always remember, don't use big money to gamble if you are not ready to lose your money. Maybe if the crypto gambling website offers so many bonuses for a new player or existing player can be a sign to scam people, but that depends on how the site can satisfy the member.
8571  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Las Vegas Casinos are open - end of the Pandemic era. on: June 23, 2020, 04:07:32 AM
I don't think that you are updated with the latest news. Check this:

https://indianexpress.com/article/explained/how-close-are-we-to-coronavirus-covid-19-vaccine-what-is-the-testing-process-6471283/

The third and final phase of human testing will start next month for the vaccines developed by three companies - Oxford-AstraZeneca (Britain), Sinovac Biotech (China) and Moderna Inc (United States).
Many countries are trying to found out the vaccine. I hope that soon we will see one or more countries will release the vaccine to the public, so that helps the hospital to cure the infected people. Moreover, we don't have to worry or afraid of that virus because we have the antidote to cure newly infected people with the right vaccine. But people need to be careful even if the vaccine is found because the vaccine will need time to distribute to all countries needed.
8572  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: PAGCOR waiting for the approval to reopen land-based casinos. on: June 23, 2020, 03:37:32 AM
I believe it will be reopen soon, they are just waiting for the right time, there's no government that would survive in this crisis if they will not fully open the economy and give way for big businesses to continue their operation, PAGCOR is making billions and we need that money to fund this very expensive war that we are at now. We will see next month, if the GCQ in Metro Manila will not be extended, then there's a good chance that operation will resume after months of being halted.
If the government can be wise, they will not force the casino to reopen their business, but they will ask the other business to start, especially with the business that related to people's life. That will be better if the other business can contribute to this pandemic because they can also help many people live, and they can start the economy in that country. But if the government still insists on reopening the gambling industry, they need to use the strict protocol to protect people.
8573  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Physical Casinos Decoded : on: June 23, 2020, 03:17:35 AM
What's the use of having employees pretend as gamblers? If they were found out, it could easily be seen as a way to manipulate the mindset of the customers that gamble. An easy example would be the employee pretending pushing the others to play with him and the like. Just let them be a normal employee, there are cams all over the place after all so any suspicious activity could easily be seen, as long as no blindspots are made that is.
Phew, I am sure the employees can hiding their identity among the other gamblers. Or another scenario is the casino can hire some pro gamblers who will watch the games, and report it to the security so the cheater can get arrested. There are so many ways that the casino can do to protect their business from people who want to cheat, and maybe that is only one of many ways that they have.

I think that all casinos are concerned about their reputation and want players to feel safe and not cheat in games. However, not all casinos can afford high security costs. Therefore, casinos often compromise on security and the cost of providing it.
The casino will know how to deal with the cheat, and maybe they don't have to hire or pay high-security costs, but the casino can use another way. But I am sure the casino can install a hidden camera on their place so the security can watch the activity on every table, and if they find someone trying to cheat, they can directly get that person.

This may be possible, and there may be some other tactics could also be deployed just in order to ensure the house is in order and nothing fishy happens while gambling. Because any unpleasant kind of experience if shared in outside world then the reputation of such casinos will take a hit and would result of switch of the gamblers from one to other casinos and nobody would want that to happen.
The casino will prevent any unpleasant kind of experience as you say because the casino really thinks of that. The reputations will be the important thing that the casino will want to reach because that means they will have a more big player to come to their place and play the games.
8574  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A Poker Odds Calculator is a Perfect Tool for Poker? on: June 23, 2020, 02:40:48 AM

I disagree with the idea that this tool is good for beginners.

Instead of feeding their mind with proper basic knowledge, they will be getting used to using that tool to assist them in each of their session. Let these beginners squeezed their minds in order to win with their own skills as their foundation and reference.

That tool is way better to use by experienced ones as that will act as their additional reference alongside their own knowledge and skills about dealing with their opponents on the table.
The beginners need to have basic knowledge of poker games, but with that additional tools, they will have a chance to improve their skills, and maybe they will know how to bluff the opponent. Maybe that will not work if the opponent is a master in the poker games, but if they can play among the beginner, that will help them to win. The experience poker games can also improve their skills by knowing how to bluff the opponent on the table.
8575  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Good project since 2018 on: June 22, 2020, 07:49:47 AM
To be honest, I don't remember the project, which still is a good project right now because I see many projects launched in 2018, and that project still survives. But reading the other members' replies, I think many of them select Tezos as a good project since 2018, so we can see what will happen in the next bull run. If Tezos still a good project, then that can give the chance to increase the price. Otherwise, Tezos will need more time to grow.
you are right. most projects in 2018 have lost their prices. several projects that have survived from 2018 to the present are BNB. Well, that's a project that started in 2017 but started pumping in 2018. To be honest, there are many projects in 2017/2018 that still exist today, but most of the prices have been dumped.
Maybe those projects need to wait for a while to lift the price at a higher price. Meanwhile, they can still continue every phase of their project and make and update to the public, so the public knows that they are really serious about the project. If they can still work seriously with the project, I guess their chance to lift the price will be bigger because people will see that the project will have the potential to increase in the future.
8576  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Top 5 most profitable coins of this year on: June 22, 2020, 07:17:15 AM
I agree with you because if I check on the market, almost every day's bitcoin price is getting another down, although, in a moment, the price can increase, after the next few hours, the price is down again. So that can affect the decision that we make because the altcoin will follow to go down. It is better to wait for a while to see where the bitcoin prices will move.
I will sit still and continue to analyse this market because there is nothing safe at the moment, and the crypto market will definitely have a big adjustment soon. I think not in a hurry to invest and should wait for some more time because the crypto market is very volatile. Looking at the price of Bitcoin, I totally agree with you that the price of this coin will drop very quickly in the next few weeks.
I hope that this time is not a trap for us to buy bitcoin because the green candle is back to the market. But if the green candle is still going strong, it might trigger another small bullish trend, and that can give a chance for the price to increase. Just be careful if you decide something because I guess we still need to wait for more, and if this week is the time for bitcoin price to back to the higher price, I think we can sell some amount of bitcoin to get the initial money and make a profit.
8577  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Let's talk little bit about LTC! on: June 22, 2020, 06:40:24 AM
Somehow, I believe LTC can increase, and litecoin can push the price to $80-$100 in the next bull run. But yeah, like the other coins, litecoin now are trying to survive, and still, defend the position at the market besides competing with the other coins. It will increase at the right time, and I already buy some litecoin, but I still want to buy more litecoin when the price is down.
now it's not a competition with other altcoins on the market. all projects will focus on their market. LTC is a good asset to a large market. they are just waiting for the moment of the altcoin market at high pumps. moreover, they have also done halving and I think this is only related to market demand which must be pushed harder.
It still a competition at the market because every coin wants to show its ability to increase the price. And at this time, all of the altcoins still try to do that. Litecoin has a chance to get a high pump at the market, but it needs time before the price can really increase so high, and I am sure many people are still waiting for that.

It is still slow and i do not think the developers are doing anything yet to develop it and bring in more features, just like others are doing.
I do not want want to assume it has been abandoned.
Maybe if it is also halved, we would see an accelerated growth.
That is because the market is not moving fast, so that makes litecoin adjust the movement based on the market moves. If there is a fast movement in the market, it can impact the other altcoin, including litecoin. But I guess that the litecoin project still on development, and we will see something in a short time.
8578  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A Poker Odds Calculator is a Perfect Tool for Poker? on: June 22, 2020, 05:29:11 AM
Maybe that will be a perfect tool for the beginner, but for the veteran or pro poker player, they don't need the calculator because they know what it needs. However, as it is written on the quote, it can help every poker player know how big their chance to win the games. I wish I know these games much because I feel that it is difficult for me to understand the poker games Huh
8579  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Interview with Stake.com CEO Reveals Plans for Tether Betting + New Games. on: June 22, 2020, 04:49:22 AM
Sooner or later, the gambling website will accept another stable coin at their site, so the gamblers will have more options to place the bets. Maybe accepting the stable coin can attract big gamblers who have a lot of money to play on the crypto gambling website because that can give the gambler from the fiat money to try to playing gambling using the cryptocurrency besides of using the fiat money.
8580  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Physical Casinos Decoded : on: June 22, 2020, 03:38:25 AM
I think that the presence of such employees depends on the size and profitability of the casino. The larger the casino, the more serious and professional its security service is. I think the biggest casinos in Las Vegas and that's where the best security services in the world are.
For me, as a player, the main thing is that I can enjoy the game and no one interfered with it.
The bigger casino doesn't want to see their reputations damaged because of the small mistake, so they make sure that they can handle their environment. Maybe they are placing their employees as gamblers, making sure that everything can run properly and make money from their place. A gambler who only want to enjoy the game and having fun in the gambling will not want to think anything. They will let the casino handle everything.
