Well, I think we don't have to put all of the money in one basket will be the best advice for me because with spreading some amount of money in various cryptocurrency as the investment, I can minimize the risk if somehow one or more of my coin is down. Besides that, I will have the opportunities to make more profit from that coin because I can hold many coins that will be increased at the right time. The other advice is to use the money you can afford to lose the money, teaching me to invest some money and not all of the money.

Kamling will not leave you to sleep happily because it will makes you to be more interested and also involved in it but I think ok it will depends upon the mindset of a gambler if they are getting so much controlled. While he is is in constant mind set then there is no problem in that but some people will not be like that that is the problem for them
It is an addiction you mean...meanly people get addicted because they win at first and trying to win again which is a very common reason why they should come back in gambling. Do we think that they could control such feelings? I think not, cause they are totally controlled by their mind and it could just stop once they open up their minds again.

Not many gamblers can open their minds to think about stopping from gambling because once they feel the win money, they want to get the win over and over. While they feel happy with their win, they come back in gambling and hope this time they will win another winning, but the truth is they will lose their money. They cannot control their feelings, especially if they can win more than 5 times because, at that time, greediness will come to them and telling them to play more to win the money.
9043  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you think about Gambling and e-sports? on: August 08, 2019, 04:56:54 AM
With e-sports growing each day, like old ones Dota, Lol, CS and the new ones like Fortnite, PUBG etc, and competitions become more professional and more money are into, do you think soon we will be gambling with e-sports together with traditional ones?

I think it's only a matter of time, soon we will be betting on e-sports
I'm already betting on E-sports and its fun because I'm a player too. The new era of video games are working well now, there are so many kinds of games that is already available for betting. Traditional gambling are casinos, it can't be a combination of e-sports aside from the online gambling site.

Soon, we will see many new games will be added in the gambling industry because the owner of the gambling places know that it will attract more player to come and bet and they will make a lot of money from the games. The traditional gambling will transform into digital gambling like what we see now, and it will grow fast with the supporting of the technology. There will be more competition in the gambling places, and that will be interesting too if we can take part in the games but remember, we need to control our money.
9044  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Would you bet on a dog fight? on: August 08, 2019, 01:34:59 AM
As other people say, I would never bet on a dog fight. Almost all people love a dog, people care with a dog, and they don't want to hurt dog too. Besides that, I think the dog fight is not legal in many countries because of the sense of humanity. Many people feel they are bond with the dog, and if they find or they see a dog fight, I guess that will break their heart, and they will say that fight needs to stop and don't allow the dog fight. We can gamble for another thing, and I think using the animal as a bet is not a good thing.
9045  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ARE THEY OUT OF METHODS? on: August 07, 2019, 12:07:39 PM
That is ridiculous. If you see or hear that one investment with the initial money for about $70, and you will make $980 just in 12 hours, then that will be the same as doubler bitcoin which I see in the past. You will lose $70 if you invest in them and no one will help you. That is a fake investment, and I hope you don't send any money to them. But that will attract new people to invest with them as the new people are not learning much about cryptocurrency and the investment in cryptocurrency. The scammers will use every way to take people's money, and you need to be careful.
9046  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why are big leaders now opposing cryptocurrencies suddenly? on: August 07, 2019, 10:39:43 AM
We don't know what their reason is. But perhaps, it's because they cannot control cryptocurrency and they could only see the price moves up and down. There are many possibilities why they do that, and I don't think that they will tell the reason. As long as we could still use cryptocurrency, we should use it while we still have time to earn more money. We could hope that the government will realize that cryptocurrency is not an enemy for them, and cryptocurrency can help their people to gain the benefits for their lives.
9047  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin suddenly soared this week on: August 07, 2019, 08:34:09 AM
Bitcoin price will increase more, but it will not reach $20k in a short time as we see the price cannot break the higher price and still moving from the low price to high price. We should be worry if the price is down after this because usually, after the price increase, it will get down for a moment and this time, we don't know until how much the price will be down. So it is better to take the profit first before the price is down, but many people still hope that the price can break the higher price this month.
9048  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling habits that will cost you on: August 07, 2019, 06:13:52 AM
Those that have been gambling for a long time will agree with some of these bad habits (if I may call them this) which I have found to have a negative effect on our gambling experience.

One of the effect or the bad result playing gambling is greedy and gambler want to get quick rich.

Greediness will always come to gamblers, especially for gamblers who can win more and more. They will still play gambling until they don't have any money, but in the end, they only regret what they've done before. But that's too late to realize because they now don't have any money. Gamblers will get more effect if they cannot control themselves in gambling games, and they will get a more negative impact by playing gambling for a long time. No matter what, gambling will cost much money than we can realize.
9049  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Man won 12 times in lottery on: August 07, 2019, 04:12:25 AM

My friend, not 100 tickets, here we speak about million tickets at least. Check around, people have tried this already, and they did the math.
The Mega Millions jackpot is up to $1.6 billion. 302,575,350 possible combinations of Mega Millions numbers. At $2 for each ticket, then, it would be possible to buy every possible ticket for $605,150,700.

To be honest, I am shocked to see what you're explaining, and I never thought that involves big money to win. I never calculated or searching about how much chance for people to win the lottery and when I see your image, geez that is huge money we need to win.

Even if you have so much money, buying tickets would still be a problem, you can`t buy all of them in one place! The machine generates some amount of tickets per hour (I found information around 50 tickets per hour) if you need millions of tickets you will need many people going around buying tickets for all 5 days of the week.

I don't think that one person can buy a lot of ticket at the same time, and I think the casino or gambling places would not allow people to do that. But perhaps, we could ask our friends to buy a lot of tickets, and we can make a queue with other people in the gambling places hahaha.

So we know that the chance for one person to win the lottery is small. We cannot buy a lot of tickets because we could only buy 50 tickets per hour and we need more people or friends to help us to buy the tickets. That is why the lottery places can make a huge profit from people who bought the lottery tickets.
9050  Economy / Speculation / Re: Good news! Bitcoin Price Breaks $10K Barrier on: August 06, 2019, 07:14:19 AM
Will bitcoin price increase in the upcoming days?
Just relax your mind now, Bitcoin price increase upcoming today and next day, I hope altcoin will following bitcoin price from now and make everyone here happy. no body know what price can happen next, but we have to optism cryptocurrency price this year will better than last year and become future for holder.

Bitcoin price will increase, we see the price still increase in this week, and we can hope that it still going strong in this month and the next month. The altcoin will also increase too after bitcoin reach a stable price for a while, and then both bitcoin and altcoin will have a chance to increase together. I agree that we should keep optimist to see cryptocurrency will be back to the higher price, so you need to be patient and hold your bitcoin. Once the right time comes, you will see what you hold will give you a big profit like before.
9051  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Only a Crime Tool on: August 06, 2019, 06:11:42 AM
Bitcoin is a tool for us, and it depends on how we use it in our life. We see that bitcoin can be used for a good thing like, for example, we can use bitcoin as the investment, for making transaction and the others. But bitcoin can also be used for a bad thing like for example to buy the illegal thing in the dark market. We don't know what bitcoin will be used for, but I am sure that there are many people who will use bitcoin for a good thing and they will prevent from doing bad things.
9052  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Can Walmart Digital Coin Succeed Facebook Libra? on: August 06, 2019, 04:53:44 AM
Let them compete with each other so we can take the benefit from both (if they can give benefit to us). Time will tell which coin can succeed in the market, and we can choose that coin to help us to make more profit. I don't know which will have the potential to succeed because the project still running so far, and it is better to wait for a while. We can say that Libra will have a chance to succeed, but I think Walmart will do everything to compete with Libra, and they will make sure the project will get many users in the future.
9053  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Man won 12 times in lottery on: August 06, 2019, 03:53:39 AM
Not worth the risk. No matter how many tickets you buy or how many lottery syndicates you join, the odds against the player are massive. It's still a big gamble. Too many people have spent years and tens of thousands of dollars chasing that elusive big win, only to die poor. No thanks. I'm not sold.

Yes, of course, that is not worth if we don't know or don't have good skills in cracking the code like that person. But if we have high-skills like him, I guess we will try to beat the system, and with our skills, we will try hard and perhaps, we have a chance to win like him. But still, that will be too risky for us because we can get caught by the system and that will be dangerous to us because we can get jail. I won't do that thing too like you because besides I don't have the skills to crack the code, I know that if I want to play or buy the lottery, I will need much money and that doesn't guarantee for me to win the prizes.

What people don`t understand is that for every system you need a lot of money to run it, there`s a minimum investment to cover basics and there`s always maximum investment to cover everything. If you noticed in the entire video we didn`t see how many lottery tickets he bought for every lottery, he didn`t win with just one ticket, he needed combinations, and more combinations mean more tickets, more tickets mean higher investment. He only states that you need to calculate possible combinations and lottery prize needs to be at least 3 times as big as the number of combinations. For a lottery that has 37 numbers, you need millions of dollars!

The answer to this is because the prizes are too big so he can not distract his mind to other things. The video will not show how many tickets he bought because that will not make people interest with the lottery. Perhaps, we only saw some tickets from him, but I guess that will be more than 100 tickets and I think he spends a lot of money. The truth from this is we cannot win easy the lottery without having luck, but it seems, people don't realize about that, and they still hoping to win the prize from the lottery. Yes, million dollars will be needed to win the game, and we don't realize how much money we spent in the end.
9054  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What You Should Know Before Playing A Crypto Betting Game on: August 06, 2019, 02:51:39 AM
Like what @boyptc suggest, next time choose only the legit gambling site and have reputable to play gambling, so he doesn't have a problem.
There were countless times that complain like this has been existing. That's the best suggestion that I can ever give to them.

Probably they weren't aware of what are those legit casino's and long running that they can trust. And if there's a casino that pops upon googling it, they are visiting and trying it not knowing that it's a fake.
I am very sure most of the players that get scammed understand all this, they know deep down that the site could be illegal but the desire to make money covers their sense of thinking. The reason I know this is my gambling friend shared his experience with me on how he got scammed and in his words, the site was suspicious but the offers were too good to be true so he decided to take the risk  and that was how he lost so much money.

If confused if one is confused on the site to pick, there are a lot of them on this forum and also reviews are available to clear the air on the reputation status. Scammed players are always the greedy, unintelligent and lazy players.

If we are a new person in gambling, we will not think about the suspicious thing because we are only attracted because of the offers. But that will not happen if we can be aware and be careful to select the gambling website and we are often read the review on here or other websites. This forum could be a good guide to new people to find recommended gambling website so they can avoid from the scamming website. We need to change our mind that the offers can lie to us and we don't have to risk our money to follows them.
9055  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Maximum bet amount on single bet! on: August 06, 2019, 01:36:44 AM
I think this forum has lot of regular gambler so I am interested to know how much they ever spend as highest bet amount in very single bet.


I remember betting a $100 on a game way back in 2015. Maybe this is a little amount compared to those who are an avid fan of gambling but its the most i can place on a single bet. Its just so happen that i won several times and already won big so this money was my last bet before i go home. I win after. Smiley

For some people like me, $100 is a big amount because I never use that amount in one time single bet. I prefer to divide it into 3-5 parts and sent it many times.  So you can get a big win from gambling, and I am glad that you can go home with the win money because not many people who can win big money and go home with that money. I am sure you have big luck too in gambling, but I hope that you should remember the luck will not always stay beside you in any gambling games.

What I noticed when I'm gambling, once I increase my bet, it will be hard for me to go down because it seems like I don't feel the excitement anymore.
If we cannot be discipline to stick with what we can afford to lose, our possible winning might increase but the opposite might most likely will happen.

I feel that too because that will happen to us if we are gambling with hard and we don't think about how much money we can lose. We are difficult to discipline ourselves if we don't try hard, and we don't have the power to control ourselves. The chance to win will not come even if we are increasing the bets because that is not connected to the winning itself. But if you are trying to reduce the bet and you are trying hard to control yourself, then you will see that slowly you can hold the money in your pocket.
9056  Economy / Speculation / Re: Reason for the current BTC bull run on: August 05, 2019, 11:16:29 AM
Let us think as simple. The reason for the current bitcoin bull run because it is the right time for bitcoin price to back to the higher price so the price can increase higher and now, the price still on the uptrend and try to break the highest price. Although we don't know the real reason for the bull run this time, we could feel happy because after we wait for a long time, bitcoin price finally back to $11k and still moving on the higher price. I am sure many people are making money from this current bull run but they still waiting for the next highest price.
9057  Economy / Speculation / Re: What is your Bitcoin price prediction for 1st September 2019 on: August 05, 2019, 09:49:14 AM
I cannot predict how much bitcoin price will be on 1st September 2019 because it is hard to make some price range with these situations. Bitcoin price itself still fluctuated to any price, and many of us have wrong in the prediction. But if I can wish, I hope bitcoin price can increase more than $15k or will be back to more than $20k. Perhaps, bitcoin price slowly increases to the higher price, and I don't mind if somehow the price could only increase step by step and cannot jump to the higher price. We have one month to see what will happen in the next month and that still a mystery for us.
9058  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Cheapest Coins On Any Exchange on: August 05, 2019, 08:50:27 AM
What are some of the cheapest coins to buy on an exchange you currently know of? Super Cheap

You can get a lot of data information from coinmarketcap, but that doesn't mean you can make a lot of money from trading because many of those coins are not worth to buy. But sometimes, you can get hidden gems that will worth and will help you to make a lot of money. Each coin you get needs to be analyzed before you buy at the market and if you can select from the higher list, then you might make a profit later. But once again, that will be difficult to analyze one by one before you can find the potential coins. You should buy the cheap coins but have a good list in the coinmarketcap, and in the market, the coin has a good volume to trade.
9059  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Best solution to handle gambling addition, in a country. on: August 05, 2019, 05:34:35 AM
The best way to reduce gambling addiction is not by banning gambling since it's not possible to forbid everyone from gambling, people must still gamble illegally. There are various ways the government can educate people on the risks involved in being addicted to gambling, this approach will be more effective.

At least, the government can use some regulations to control people who can play gambling. And perhaps, people who want to play gambling needs to have some license from the psychology or other institutions that explain that person will be responsible for everything that might happen in the gambling games. Giving educating people about the risk of playing gambling will be a good idea since many people don't realize that so they can think that there is a risk of playing gambling.
