I also see that mate , is there really a profitable gambling ?

Yes there is a win and loss in gambling , but having an assurance to be profitable is not a best word to deliver because we knew how hard to win in this area of money making.

I would rather say that "Fun and chances to profit" that is the appropriate term to deliver in this thread.

But what made me think twice of this site is that how OP's style of posting , delivering  multiple thread but never made any comment in one of those.

Yes, it looks more like a bot posting. If OP is a human being he should reply to all those comments and questions in his threads.

I personally want to ask this. What are those "benefits for newcomers" exactly? What apart from "profitable games" his site can propose?

And I have some advice to give. If you are serious about your business, start from announcing a challenge, like "Guess the slot" or something, with good prizes, prizes worth hundreds of USD, which will be credited to the winners' accounts on your platform.

Just saying "we have safe funds storage and profitable games" is not enough these days.
862  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who among you here is gambling at work? on: November 12, 2023, 09:22:06 AM
I'm surprised that most people have voted "Not me". Is it even true? I mean, unless you are a night guard at some warehouse, you can't gamble all the time, but have you guys never rolled a dice during your work? I mean, just for a minute or two, never? I'm not saying I'm doing it everyday, but once in two-three months I can find a minute to roll dice or spin a reel, or place a bet on a team I think should win. But it depends on the job, of course. I wouldn't be happy about my Uber driver making a bet during a taxi ride.

Actually gambling while working is okay, but it depends on the job as you said. Because sometimes gambling can interfere with work, it is best to avoid it, especially if the manager/superior finds out, there is a risk of being fired. However, there are also jobs that are not too busy, aka can be relaxing, making us bored. There is no harm in seeking luck through gambling to relieve boredom at work. The point is that gambling is allowed as long as we can manage our time so that it doesn't interfere with work. I used to work as a security guard in a factory, often gambling while working just to relieve boredom.

That's exactly the kind of work where you can spend some time on gambling, in my opinion. Unless the factory is producing nukes, you are totally fine, I guess.

Gambling can relieve boredom, it even can fill you with energy like a cup of espresso. You just shouldn't overdo it. At work or elsewhere, don't overdo it, guys. Make it your source of energy and good vibes.

Even though it just for their own enjoyment, they come to the casino more often actively and gambling addiction is term for anyone who always gambles and can't get away from gambling, whether it for entertainment reasons or for the purpose of making money if they have consistent activities all the time then that it can be called gambling addict.

Well, I disagree. Normally, we call someone "addicted" if the activity he is constantly engaged with harms him. If someone is gambling for entertainment purposes and never loses more than he can afford to lose, we should not call such a person a gambling addict, even if, in our opinion he spends on gambling too much time. And we never call him a reckless gambler.
864  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Chat GTP destroy poker on-line gambling??? on: November 12, 2023, 08:08:08 AM
I wouldn't say "destroy", there were already some software that gave out the odds, so it is not like this would bring in anything new. Any AI would be able to collect the data from what you give it, and the odds will be there, anyone who wagers with odds on the screen knowing what are their chances to win, will be a bit ahead of everyone else, obviously there are a lot of people who already know this by heart and on their minds, without needing it, those are professionals and no GTP would be able to beat that at all.

I think the fact that we are talking about something "special" here is wrong, it is just a normal situation and doesn't feel like it will make any type of change for the long term results of poker gambling.

No, that is certainly not true. Pluribus, an AI, can beat top poker professionals, and not only heads-up, but  in a complex multiplayer game too. The question is will it be available for regular folks to use and how high are the costs of learning in real-time during its online play, but it's not a question that it can beat even the best humans at poker.

correct mate, it is not hereditary not unless their family is engaging in gambling day by day then that might be considered as hereditarian but not in ours yet my brother still gamble .

When OP said "inbuilt" or people in this thread were saying "hereditary", it wasn't to say that some family members of the kid that started gambling all of a sudden were gamblers. Rather it was about all humankind. It's in our genes to gamble, it's our basic Instinct. But in the modern world we should learn to fight our basic instincts, because the world has changed a lot over the last 10 thousand years.
867  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cash out or keep playing? on: November 11, 2023, 08:41:50 AM
I want to pose a question that I believe is quite expensive for many of us here, and it's a dilemma most of us can relate to. We all know that gambling is a game where we put our luck to the test. However, there's a crucial moment in every gambler's journey. the moment when you hit that big win. Do you cash out and savor your victory, or do you continue playing in hopes of even bigger winnings?

I've often wondered how many of us can truly stop playing when we are ahead. It's a challenge because the allure of winning more can be irresistible. I've witnessed situations where a friend deposited money into a casino, faced losses, and just when he was on the brink of frustration, he struck a significant win. Did he stop playing? No, he left his winnings in the casino, only to lose it all again.
So, I ask you all, what would you do when you finally make that big win? Would you cash out immediately to enjoy your winnings, or would you keep playing in the hopes of an even more substantial prize? Shocked

To me it's neither of those things most of the time. When I win big, I don't cash out immediately, but I don't keep playing either. What I do is I stop for the day, because I'm gambling for entertainment purposes and winning something like 100x+ of your bet is entertaining enough. Then I may come back the next day and play a bit, and then the next. And thus I can lose my initial win in a month, or in several months, but I'm glad my win is enough for such a long time for me to have fun with gambling.
868  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gamble Responsibly on: November 11, 2023, 08:13:05 AM
~ The case for most gamblers is that we're starting responsible but when we're already in the middle of it, that's when things change. We want to gamble more even if we don't have money anymore because we've lost a lot of money and we can't accept the fact that we're losers so we chase, we recover and then we lose again. The cycle continues that makes us stuck on that which makes gambling is harder for us because the reality is there but we can't accept it.

So, when a gambler has already lost everything that's when he's going to be knocked by realization that he did the wrong thing. When he's got the opportunity to gamble and then made some profits, he didn't withdraw and stopped.

The key is even if you are chasing your losses, you shouldn't risk more than you can afford to lose. Yes, it might be a painful loss, but not a catastrophic one still. We, gamblers, all have those unfortunate moments, but it's not like we are losing everything and borrow money to gamble more, like irresponsible gamblers do.
869  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A weird belief among some gamblers. on: November 11, 2023, 07:06:07 AM
It is a very natural thing to bet and hope for luck, although it is still not certain whether someone will really be lucky. Because people who bet without expecting to win or get lucky are just people who are having fun with gambling, so it wouldn't be strange if someone who bets doesn't want to tell other people about their luck. Because this kind of thing can actually be done by anyone who has the courage and ability individually without having to depend on other people.
Exactly, it's not like you have control on how the team that you're betting on will perform, your control stopped when you've locked it in and now it all relies on the skills of the team you've put your bet on. To be honest, most betting should be easy especially if you just bet on the one with the lowest odds, it's common sense that betting sites will put lower odds on the teams that's likely to win so why not just go with your common sense and secure an easy win?

It's never an easy win. Less than a year ago there was a case when a guy bet $1 million in USD on a team that had 1.01 odds, meaning it should have won almost certainly, right? He thought it was easy to win $10k with that. And the team didn't win, and he lost his entire million. I can't even imagine how much money won those who bet in the outsider, but my point is, even with  1.01 odds you can lose sometimes.
When it comes to betting game, it's true that there's no easy win, some bettors lose so many times before they get to win, it's just that you need to lose almost half of your money before you get back the money that you've lose. It's a matter of luck and some winning strategy that you build in yourself.

I won 151x  of my bet recently



but I lost around 80 of similar multibets before that. And I think I was very lucky to win that 151x. This might not have happened in the next 80 bets and I would be in the red. You should never count on getting your money back like it's guaranteed to happen when you make a lot of bets.

Yes, I remember that thread about someone betting at 1.01 and thinks it's a sure win, unfortunately it's not. But then we have seen someone also bet on a parlay with just small amount and the odds are like 100x or higher and then won that bet. ~

See my post above. I did bet with just small amount and the odds were actually more than 100x. Smiley

What I mean is that if you have 0.3 BTC today , it's the money you've won back then. If not for that win, you wouldn't have it right now, right? 10 grands is 10 grands, Congrats again, mate!
The amount is huge today because that amount of bitcoin back then was only 200$ but its gone 6x and thus the fiat value has increased again courtesy of bitcoin's price rise.

No man, not 6x, it's more than 60x today! I know it's hard to believe, but it's true. Although it wasn't the price of Bitcoin Pizza days, it was still so much lower than today's price that it's hard to believe. Smiley

Quote
I'm wondering how much it will be one day in the future, $200 in BTC now? $2k? Maybe more? Freebitcoin is a fantastic place. You can win that much in one roll and it's free.
Hence make sure to stash more bitcoins and use their 4.08% investment scheme more often to grow your coins that you can spare, no one knows how big even a single satoshi might become in future.

Still I have not been able to replicate a similar winning again now.

Yes, Bitcoin is still unpredictable, and FreeBitco.in is still great place to visit for those who love Bitcoin.

Apart from freerolls I like hunting for the 8888 Jackpot here:



Won it two times already, but the last time was more than a year ago. I'm expecting that 8888 soon. Smiley

Was it changed by my play? I don't know, but it was fun. Smiley

It may changed because of your play if you were the only one who played the game since you saw the 0.86% till it changed to 65.6%.
Without a doubt you were not the only one, there must be many other players who played the same game especially if the live RTP is counted globally (not only based on bitcasino traffic).
Although endorphina is not as popular as other provider, but I'm pretty sure this type of "book" slot game has its own players based.

I'm pretty sure the live RTP is counted globally. It makes using the info on Bitcasino even more exciting.



Today I found another slot with pretty low LIVE RTP, just one percent it was:



So I played it for 30 minutes, and it surely wasn't 1% for me. With all those wins along the way

   
   

it ended up being more like 99% for me. Smiley

And, of course, I played my all-time favourite Bitcasino Billion and it didn't dissappointed me this time too:



54x of my bet. What more can you wish for? Smiley
872  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [POLL] Using AI to predict outcomes on: November 08, 2023, 09:05:06 AM
~

Is it so? I've never encountered a gambling site where it's said in ToS that they will ban you if you are using AI. And I think that's because they don't regard it as a threat to them, gamblers using AI. At this point AI is in such state that some people can feel secure of their bet after consulting with it, but that would be not more than illusion.
Well, they need to update their ToS then because if not then they might find someone that will be winning a lot and they might suspect them of using AI and then ban them but then end up with them not on the right because they didn't have anything saying that prohibiting in their ToS the usage of AI. That's going to be a problem that casinos have to deal with now or it will come back and bite them in the ass because AI is getting better much faster and I'm not talking about the research AI ones, I'm talking about the commercial ones, even the free ones are pretty useful for many stuff already. Also even if you didn't encounter any casino that will ban you, they can always justify that it's cheating because you had an assistance and we all know that they're going to be doing whatever it takes to not pay winners if they're able to do it.

Yes, AIs are useful, but,for better or worse, not for making bets. I've checked that many times for sports betting, and and it gives you no edge whatsoever. Can you use AI to predict outcomes of slot games and dice? Well, that's a deeply philosophical question, innit? Smiley

~snip~


The first thing that comes to mind to me is that basically it would be impossible to know someone was using an AI to make bets. How you come up with your bet is almost impossible to prove.

I think the same, but that's if you bet manually. If it's a bot of some kind, it can be spotted I think.
873  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you lose on slots? on: November 08, 2023, 08:24:27 AM
~ There are two kinds of people that bet $200 USD in a single spin: Some people are blindly chasing big wins and they forget about anything else; and there are others who simply can afford it. For the latter it's like for us betting 20 cents for a single spin. They have a lot of money and for them winning something like $20 is not entertaining at all, so, they need to make higher bets to have fun. The former kind, on the other hand, they are seeking not fun but big profits, and those people need professional help.

many things can get you addicted and this is never a good thing

I wonder if there's also rich people who do small bets just for fun and get a thrill out of 20 usd wins even though it's a really small amount for them
what do you think about it?


I'm pretty sure that there are such people. I even think most gamblers are like that. It's a healthy approach to gambling: not trying to win a significant amount for you, but enjoy small victories. For me, for instance, $4 is not a significant amount, but if it's 40x of my 10 cents bet I feel happy about it, and sometimes I even stop for the day after such a win. That's why I like slots where you can with as little as just 10 cents, but 20 cents is also OK.

Well, a big congratulations to you bud, and i am ultimately wishing you the best of luck in winning the ultimate prize in the challenge.

Unfortunately for me, slot games at the moment isn't really my thing, there are period i feel so lucky and very eager to try my hands on slot games, and there is other period when i just feel that playing any games that is slot related will mean me just wasting my money.

80x is a very nice multiplier, now, imagine that you had at least $50 bet on that game when you won with that multiplier, that would have been a sweet $4000plus, money good enough to start some really good business.

Anyways, one of the downsides of gambling is that we never know when we are about to win so that we can increase our bet  Grin, once again bud, good luck on winning the ultimate prize in the challenge.

Thank you! I know I will win a regular prize, like $5, but 80x is never enough to win the ultimate prize. From my experience the multiplier must be above 400x to end up in the top 25. But, of course, it's fun, and additional $5 to my already good win wouldn't hurt. Smiley

Recently in another challenge on Stake Forum, "Win a bet on Video Poker by hitting 4 OF A KIND", I got 4 Aces with my initial hand:



I see it as a big luck and I'm very happy about it. Smiley

Exactly. I`m old enough and don`t need any applause for anything i`m doing. I know what i can, i see the result, i can share some ideas - that`s all i can do. And everybody can decide by themselves if i telling the truth.
PS. 2 times won and 2 times lost yesterday. The result of the week now is -$40. Even if i lose $100 this week - it is normal result for me - the monthly profit will be about $200-$230.

It's good that you are honestly sharing about your losses. Those who want to gamble should expect possible losses too. That's why it's very risky to take Gambling as a major income, unlike with any regular job, you can lose while "working". But I like your position on this issue: although earning from gambling yourself you are not encouraging anyone to follow you. What works for you, might not work for another gambler, and you take this into account.

Celebrate your big win, buy some necessary but expensive things, and invest the rest in Bitcoin. That would be my advice.
~ apart from that celebrate winnings only with family because it won't cost much at least it makes people all around us enjoying the results of that victory.

Yes, that's what I was trying to say basically. "Celebrate" is the key word here. I also would suggest to celebrate with your family, with your close ones. They deserve it more than others. If you invest all your money in a business, then you might end up with nothing at all. So, that option should be excluded from the beginning.

I started also recently using bigger odds and it was tough to keep losing but if you hit a few streaks wins it's super worth it Smiley

Thanks for reminding me, guys, that betting with bigger odds is what I actually love and do. Having a long losing streak I almost gave up. But since low odds are not doing good for me either:

I'm switching to the high ones back again. Indeed, if you win with super high odds once, that makes the whole thing worth it.

Exactly. As I mentioned above, our brains have difficulty understanding odds. We see 1.5 as sure but that actually means you must win 2 out of 3 times just to break even. 3 out of 4 times for profit.

And anybody who makes multibets of 1.5 knows you are great to make 3/5 regularly Smiley

Bigger single odds like Barca losing is way more than the reality accepts making it good bet. I am learning this now Smiley

So, I switched to higher odds after that post of mine, and, guess what, it worked perfectly! Smiley



I lost like 30-40 consecutive bets prior to that, bets similar to these:







and it was tearing me apart, , but just in time I decided to switch back to my usual style of betting, and it paid off! Smiley

 online gambling can be a fun and potentially rewarding activity when approached with caution and responsibility. Think of it like playing video games, but with the added thrill of potential rewards. Be diligent, protect your privacy, and always gamble responsibly.

That's nicely put. Indeed, unlike with playing video games, we can expect some monetary reward, and this adds to the thrill. Even if you are betting with as little as just 20 cents, you can win with a 1,000x multiplier and earn $200 with that, good money anywhere in the world. And we all know that multiplier like 100,000x, 150,000x and higher are possible too. For most people it's a plus, but there are people for whom it's a drawback, for obvious reasons. We just shouldn't be among them.
