There is nothing wrong with gambling because it is fun and entertaining. No one knows when gambling can be beneficial or huge lost because it is all due to luck and skills probably the ratio is 90% luck and 10% skill. There is only one thing that is bad when it comes to gambling and that is the word Greed. With you being greedy it will just lead to bigger lose. So when you do gambling just think of it as a source of enjoyment  not gaining profit.

So true. Just play on it just for fun and enjoy while it last. Don't bother to think of it as a means to earn. Go find a suitable and stable job for you. Because if you think that gambling can be a good source of income for you and your family, you are dead wrong. Play for fun and not for profit and for sure everything will be fine with you.

I could not agree more to you. Treating gambling as a source of income for your family is really a BIG BIG wrong idea. You will surely be frustrated and stresses will eat you alive. The most thing that will happen is that you only not earn any money for your family but you are also selling all of your properties and belongings - what then can you say to your kids?
That's just common sense. Why would you even use that as a source of income when the risk of having a large winning amount there is low. It's better to use the money that you are going to bet to a better place because, in gambling, that's just going to eat it up if you fail to deliver in your games, you should be thinking of the possibility of winning the amount. Just be satisfied with what you have and find alternatives.

That is true. and even if it is just common sense, the sad truth is that, there are still people that fall prey in gambling more than they can afford to lose and therefore affecting their family relationship and even lost all of their hard earned properties
Well that's how life is and that's what is happening to people who get addicted to gambling. That's the real truth. Maybe you know a lot of people that really have addicted to gambling that they destroyed their relationship with everyone, that's just what happens when someone is deep into it. It would be best to stop when you know and feel that you won't be able to stop.
8862  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do winning and losing gamblers have different personalities or habits? on: June 19, 2017, 10:13:25 AM
Winning will trigger excitement and losing will trigger sadness. Some people will express their win by handing out a little tip to their friends and when they lose they may cuss or say things that are not reasonable just to vent their anger. So, winning and losing will have different effects on each individual.

We are really acting and feel according to our winnings and losing. These are really normal - the bad thing is the one that are in excess. If you lose like big time and you are losing even your properties and life savings, that is really too bad. However, if you win real big time, I don't know what you feel! Wink
That will be troublesome if you are winning and you still keep gambling, if you reached the limit you should really stop. Emotions cannot be stopped because that's life, it's how you react to things, and that's really normal. Maybe it's different when you boast your winnings without using any skills because it would look like you are just an asshole, something like that.
8863  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When you play Dice can you feel your heart in your throat? on: June 19, 2017, 09:28:29 AM
I also feel that too, especially if I'm playing with a high bet and just feeling to do a YOLO. It's an amazing feeling if you manage to overcome the odds and win it. It's going to be so satisfying, but I can't say that losing is enjoyable either. It's destructing the feelings out of me. Feeling on the chest is heavy, and heartbeat can be felt.
8864  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Is Complete Garbage!!! on: June 19, 2017, 09:25:09 AM
Maybe it's just that the understanding of people in Bitcoin is not well enough so that they just care about the price, not deep enough for someone who just enjoys it. The article has a point, it can be treated as another way to earn money, by trading. That's why the prices are always fluctuating, the supply and demand of the cryptocurrencies, that's it.
Since bitcoin is decentralized then the fluctuations of the price is common and bitcoin is not a garbage because of that. The pumps and dumps is very common and you can make profits with that if you know how to trade. If you have deep knowledge about bitcoin then you can easily understand why these things keep on happening and you will not be able to think some negative things about bitcoin.
That's true, it shouldn't be considered that it's trash because it's an innovation towards the future of transactions. It would be a lot of help using that into what they are made to do, to be pseudo-anonymous in your transactions and preventing middle man transactions.  There are a lot of places that you can research in order to learn more about Bitcoin.
8865  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you think about Casino with 0% Edge? on: June 19, 2017, 09:17:43 AM
When you think about it, it's somewhat right, you are paying that percentage for other things, and in real casinos, there are real benefits like free bottled water, candies, and other stuff that they give away for free. Some even give free tokens, like what you have in faucets in websites, and that's awesome. But they really won't do that because they want to have an EDGE for sure profit.

There are a lot of resources to see what Segwit means and how it improves the network. FYI, BIP148 is a soft fork, not a hard fork. but it could lead to coin-split. So in August 1, anyone who is running Bitcoin software would not send bit 1. If majority of the miners do not support the BIP148 (UASF), it would lead to a coin-split. But there is a better solution, BIP91.

It survived for a reason, and it will never stop. People do need those kinds of beliefs and I too believe in God. It's a way to become a better version of ourselves but if you destroy other people, that's where you should check if you're right in what you are believing, chaos shouldn't be tolerated and killing is never the option.
8868  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Africa should be nuked, all evil originated there on: June 19, 2017, 07:36:54 AM
All evil has originated in Africa, let's start cleaning up the planet.

Remember a good manners and right conduct rule, my friend! Do not talk when your mouth is full... of trash!  Tongue Tongue

First, it is too much a generalization; a hasty one, unfounded, whimsical, and so on and so forth.
Second, several countries in the region are indeed chaotic. What they need though is not apathy and indifference, much less condemnation, especially from the developed countries. They need help. They need sympathy.
Third, you try to go there. It's beautiful. Why nuke a beautiful creation?
Fourth, evil is everywhere. Even in your small mind where it is even unimaginable for evil to get fit.
That's a funny way of starting your post, it's really funny lol.

Is it really worth that you are going to want to destroy something where beautiful things exist too? Not everything is always flowers, there would be something that would blacken up your day, but that's life. How do you even intend to clean it? By killing them? That's not the right way and you should be eliminated if you think it like that.
8869  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Dangerous country on: June 19, 2017, 07:22:23 AM
I'm more confused on this thread because people are interpreting this thread as to which there are dangerous animals in the country like Africa, Madagascar, or somewhere there would be beasts that ready to eat humans or that are dangerous for animals because of humans. I read here in this thread that people are actually seeing it as countries that are dangerous FOR animals. But I think the OP wants to know who has the most dangerous animals.

It was death caused by panic and chaos. If you think about it, the people that rushed outside probably care more about themselves, and that's just human nature. It would be hard to change that but sometimes there would be people who are altruistic in nature. It's really senseless and I've heard in the news that some funeral homes took advantage of it, and that's just greediness I think.
8871  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Terrorist siege in the Philippines. on: June 19, 2017, 06:52:30 AM
I really hope that this problem is Marawi will soon be over.  It's really sad to see humanity killing each other for the wrong belief.  May our creator protect our President and the soldiers of the Republic to finished this problem.

Hmm... I am more skeptical about it. Although the Muslims in the Philippines are less than 5% of the total population, there is a large section among them who are prone to radical ideology. Various Islamist organizations have waged war against the central government ever since the 1960s, and as of now I can't see any permanent solution in sight.
It's not going to be easily solved just by applying a martial law, I don't know the current situations that Marawi has but it's really going to be hard for them to overcome it. It's definitely a rebellion and a siege (if the terrorists are not from Marawi). Talking about a permanent solution, there is no such thing, there would be always a Contradict to everything that you believe in.
8872  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Where are we going with cryptocurrency? on: June 19, 2017, 06:49:42 AM
The always answer and the optimistic answer is up. Of course, the prices of the cryptocurrency will rise because we are in the technological age, and nothing will stop that because technology helps us so much. There are always surprises with Bitcoin and sometimes the alternative coins, maybe someday it would be priced so like ten thousand USD.
8873  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What to do with the people who don't like Bitcoin? on: June 19, 2017, 05:53:29 AM
In my opinion, just let them be. If they are not interested the first time they hear about it or learn about it, they wouldn't be worth it in the long run. They might just shrug it off after being bored. Something like that.

8875  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Why most terrorist are Muslim? on: June 19, 2017, 05:39:55 AM
I just noticed and realized that I have never heard of a certain Christian terrorist, all I hear is that when a terrorist is in the news, he/she is a Muslim. I am not saying that Muslims are terrorist, so don't get me wrong.
Terrorists are Muslim but not all Muslims are terrorists
That's how much there are Muslim terrorists. It's true that not all Muslims are terrorists just because every one of them has a different ideology, some people are thinking and some are not. Basically, they have this one religion, and terrorists are believing in another interpretation of it. Maybe even a bad thing.
8876  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Muslim child soldiers in Philippines. on: June 19, 2017, 05:35:59 AM
That just shows how crazy it seems that they do that and think that they are doing the right thing. I don't know whether or not it's okay for them to do that with respect to their religion and that's not a good thing in spite of other things. Doing things like that means the future generation of them will still breed people like them, who are willing to kill people and believe that they are doing the right thing even though it's really really bad.
8877  Other / Off-topic / Re: do you believe in jesus christ? on: June 19, 2017, 05:22:26 AM
I do believe in Jesus Christ, and He is the Son of God. It maybe not the views of other people but there are just some feelings that could never be felt if He doesn't exist because there is always a reason for everything that has happened. It's going to be hard to explain, but we have our own views.

no payment?

I believe we will get paid on Monday for last week and this weeks posts. Well that's what I read on the 777 signature campaign from Lutpin.

Luptin Will just paid us a double week pay that is why I am sure it will be on tuesday!
It's Lutpin, and that's what always happens when the wallet gets late to be refilled, but that's okay. That's normal in my opinion. You could also check the wallet to check if there are funds.

The beauty of DirectBet is that you won't have to register but sadly it has closed down and should be removed in your list of possible sites. Concerning about the websites, there are a lot of things that you have to consider before choosing because most of your bitcoins that would be used for gambling is going to be deposited. The minimum bet I think that's best suited for max income (if you have a pretty large bankroll) is 5 mBTC. That's going to be your base bet and next time you could choose the team with high odds and then just try your luck there. (It's better to analyze the teams also)
