Most governments actually encourage gambling as long as it is done through legal channels and mostly state run lotteries.  They pull in a huge amount of revenue from the lottery and gullible people continue to buy those tickets not knowing the astronomical odds of winning.
This place of gambling being supported by the government as what you have mentioned, since the government is getting a huge amount of profits which they can use to finance charity works, with legal aspects the government will continue patronizing this kind of gambling and people who loves to take the risk trying their chances with fate knowing that there's only slim chances of winnings.

More precisely not hard work but experience in the gambling game. Every game will be different, for example in poker. You can not only work hard in poker, it takes experienced people, namely in the form of strategy in order to win in every poker game.
Same thoughts here. I think it's better to call it 'experience' rather than 'hard work'. In experience, it's a lighter means of saying that you have developed techniques and strategies to win. And as a saying goes, experience is the best teacher. Anyway, at the end of the day, it's still a matter of self-control so that you can maximize the win and minimize the loss. 
Correct, experienced pays a lot whenever you play the game, it's about how good you learned from every try that you've made, once you developed good strategies then you'll find the right management to work everything out in your favor, it's your good judgement to place every single decision in the right place and the right time, take your call where your knowledge is more advantage.

I tried miss universe betting to my cousin last miss universe and I won bevause my bet was Catriona gray and him was miss south africa the cost is only $10 or 10 bucks it's small but still good and next beauty contest I will bet another and I hope I can predict who gonna personally it's hard ti find who gonna win because of a lot of contestant so that's why we are betting if the candidates are in top 5 .
With that, it's easier to pick when you already seen the talents of each beauty queens who able to get inside the top 5, it's hard to pick from the beginning as the competitions really have to look for factors that will excel each participants from one another, you need to really have a good look from the beauty and talents of whoever candidate you are fully supporting.

Giving trust is really be hard when we are always thinking about the negatives side and been affected by what people had said.
I really understand how scams and phishing site spreading around, but we can't just be too much-overacted cause still a lot of reputable gambling sites that could be trusted until today.
Yes and still adding more businesses about gambling who's trying to be competitive and make a good value their house, trusting a gambling house where you will place our bankroll not knowing the possibilities of being hacked, you do need to think about how good the owners will execute and how they handle issues if there's any that may occur while staying and playing inside the site.
925  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Humans Gamble since 3000BC, and Governments still try to ban on: August 24, 2019, 05:45:47 PM
Yes in China any form of gambling activities is illegal but their government runs two official lotteries which is the only option for the people from china to gamle with their money or they can go over seas and gamble there.But people from China normally visit Hong Kong to experience gambling practices.
I think they don't need to come to Hong Kong to gamble as they can do it online, just don't know how they manipulate it so they can't be detective by the authorities. In the Philippines some Chinese businessmen set-up online casinos as it is legal here but their customers are mostly Chinese. Lately the Chinese government is urging the Philippines to ban gambling as what Cambodia did.
Those Chinese businessman who set up their gambling site from other countries are just trying to make much bigger profits as they can runaway from the government taxes, it's a good options doing offshores and targeting the same audience, they can deal online and earned bigger than what they can get when it's been setup inside their Homeland.
926  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Often Do you Bet on Politics? on: August 24, 2019, 05:57:36 AM
I'm just curious about this betting thing about this politics since it is rare for me to see it.

I don't know if it is legal to bet to any political people but i never knew it is possible to bet on them.

This is something that is new to me i guess this is how gambling really is, betting everything from insects fight to politics, you name it.

Betting in politics is mean that you bet on the result of the elections. For example you can bet that Trump will win the elections or not  and same can be bet for your local political parties election in your countries.
Although i do not see this is very much popular among the gambling sites. No gambling site cover the local countries election etc.


I remember way back that OneHash offered this kind of gambling not sure if they are still doing it, betting with it can be much predictable if you have good insight with candidates who are competing the chance to win is much higher if you see the potential of your selected candidate, you can ask support group from the gambling house to open the odd or of they'll going to make this available.

For the second time around, Dwight Howard has officially signed with the Lakers.

I don't think they'll be looking for anyone else this pre-season. That also means Melo's chances of getting signed is getting lower and lower.
Good for Dwight to play back with the Lakers and show how can he deal and help them inside though same with what others opinions he's not that much addition since AD and McGee is there to fill the position, he can  give some minutes for the rotations and make some good rest for their big man.

In the other side, Melo's chances is really slimming to be signed and play for this season, how there's still team who's considering his service.

Setting a limit and knowing when to quit are essential. Chasing losses, not setting spending limits and trying to generate an income by gambling will only financially ruin a person.
Always needs to be in optimistic ways of thinking whenever you play so win or lose you can move forward and start all over again, if you are caring about the chances that you can have from this venue of entertainment or if you are eyeing to win against the house then move on from each loses that you make one of this days you'll find success and you will be able to maximize everything.
929  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your Favorite Dice Game Platform on: August 23, 2019, 03:32:16 PM
One of the legend Dice game in the history of online gambling games is the Primedice and this is my first dice game platform that I've played until today and also I thinl in the near future. Many new dice game platoform but Primedice prove that they are gold even they are one of the oldest gambling sites. Until now why the players choose primedice because they keep updating and upgrading their system.
Even there's a lots of competitions around PrimeDice still showing how dominating they are from this business, more gamblers still patronizing the site and still believing from it's  credibility, the business is getting stronger and already have Stake as another good business that's been introduced and making it's name from this industry.

There's a lots of new open Dice house and it's not that bad to try also and check how things works and what can be the advantages using or trying it out.

Might be this thread would be good to use for discussing PBA FIBA games?  As of now there’s still no announcement on the next commisioners cup.

Does the title I edited fits it? Hopefully my kababayan agrees and OP to use this thread discussing FIBA PBA games and edit it again and back at it the title to “Philippine Basketball Association Discussion” that literally suits it the best.
That's a good idea for a while since FIBA will comes first before the next season's for PBA, showing also our interest for the national team and how they  will work and try their very best to advance to the next round, though there's a lots of questions about the lineup and how they will be competitive against the super teams from this tournament.

There's a highlight on youtube on the official channel of NBA --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OnuWZOucCRw

Thanks for sharing the highlights, that was a complete domination by the US team.
I was expecting for the Australia Boomers to be more physical here and do some trash talking like they did in the Philippines so we can again see a brawl highlights. LOL..

This is still fresh in my mind. Philippines vs Australia Rumble Fight FIBA World Cup 2019 Asian Qualifiers
You are welcome.

Anyway, forget about the past and move on about that incident since it has passed already and most of the people already moved on. 
Now it's need for everyone to focus on this incoming games and try to adjust to the next round, no offense but every teams deserve this spot even there's teams who really have the advantages but keeping the faith alive and do their very best to achieved more, chances to make your country proud when you bring all in to play and try your very best even in a smallest chance that you have.
932  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I don't know how to trust a gambling site nowadays! on: August 23, 2019, 09:48:07 AM
There are many reputed gambling sites that are not requiring the players to abide in kyc so why would you choose a gambling site with too good to be true offer?

Dont bite those sites who offer high bonuses because it might be scam.
And aside from being scam it's also possible that those bonuses will be tough to earned as wagering requirements are very hard to achieved, staying with well known gambling sites still be the first priority in order to have a safe trip while enjoying your stay inside the house, you have to make it more deeper before taking any steps further and pick your gamehouse to play and enjoy.
933  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Inoue vs. Donaire WBSS Bantamweight Final on: August 22, 2019, 11:09:59 AM
By looking at his previous opponents, I think he has a lot to prove and I think Donaire has a shot of beating him, but let's see what comes up in 7 Nov 2019 which is the schedule of the fight, again in Japan.
Donaire has definitely a shot here. We all know that during Donaire's prime nobody can't touch him in the bantamweight division. Also he no longer the same Donaire we once knew, but with his experience he can definitely upset Inoue here.

Donaire knows how to read his opponent in the first few round and then adjust. So this will be like a chess game. If Inoue fought not moving his head, Donaire will take that opportunity and expose him with his left hook.
That's a skills donaire have he study how get the rhythm before he will going to take the charge, allow his opponents to keep showing good while he's finding ways to get the advantage that he's aiming, though age might change his speed but the power punch will be there to protect him and give him the spark defeating Inoue.
934  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019 on: August 22, 2019, 10:38:30 AM
What else is new? Team USA will just dominate this again. Giannis with the Bucks can't win the championship in the NBA. And his team mates in Greece won't be better than the Bucks. Unless USA won't have their top 5 players on board. KD and Klay are injured. Curry won't probably play. Leonard, PG and Irving will be busy creating chemistry with their new teams.   Cheesy
You think Popovich is that dumb not to pick good players? This roster of USA for this FIBA 2019 is massive and I know they can ball and penetrate in and out of the court. If there are team that can go head to head with them that's for sure Serbia again or perhaps Spain.
That's now depends on how the coach will work with what he got, team US still have the pride to protect from this tournament and for sure even without that much of superstars they will still push it forward to keep the chance winning again the title, there's competitive teams who also composed by good players, it's gonna be a challenging tournament for team US.

Why nowadays when there's a gambling site that offer a bunos on your first depost it seems like scam?  Especially if the bunos is to much than your initial deposit.

And also whe all knows mostly gambling site nowadays are using KYC.  but why when there's a promising site that doesn't require  kyc it smell fishy as well?  What did happen to this world?  How to trust again on this kind of sites?
Knowing a safe and secured gambling sites goes beyond kyc and bonus and of a truth we know gambling sites that show us here through used and longevity. Sites like betvest, bistler, bustadice, premidice, and stake.com are some of the sites that have been with us and has been reliable. If you want to gamble in a secure environment, you should used any of the above sites as there are fair and reliable enough.
The reputation speak for themselves as gamblers personal experiences will bring weight choosing gambling sites to play your money and have a good confidence, but it's not close for trying also those new sites which been introduce have some time to check and review every information that you can get to learn more about this sites and make a use of it.
936  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Season on: August 22, 2019, 06:52:14 AM
Noah is done, broke down.  He used to be great, 5 years ago.  Look at his time (or lack of time) on the knicks.  I would stay away from old vets that route never works.  I'd stick with what they got and get an undrafted rookie that scraps.
I would also prefer that Lakers sticks to what they have now but they are still looking for another help. With regards to vets, it sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Alonzo Mourning and Jason Kidd were both helpful when they won their only championship late in their careers.
If the mentality of such vet is aiming for the title they will influence the team with inspiration and not for trying to be inside and done nothing, vet can help the coaches in whatever changes from the play if it's needed especially on a crucial situations, maturity and dedication when you pick deserving veterans inside your bench, hard to pick though as there's a lots of options that they can take while the time it's getting nearer.
937  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Betting feature at exchange on: August 21, 2019, 06:25:08 AM
If the purpose of adding gambling feature on an exchange is just for fun, .
They put a gambling site for one purpose, which is to be profitable.
Although they will say that, "hey, play for fun because this is for fun", that doesn't mean they mean it because at the end of the day, they still make money since they always have the advantage, in short, they are adding that feature to maximize their income.
They will obviously attract people to use the gambling feature of their exchange  in order to add more profits aside from the fees that they keep collecting from each traders who uses the service w while in the other side promoting the gambling function will allow them to  be more profitable as gambler will always be a gambler. People's emotions have a very high influence with their movements.
938  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019 on: August 20, 2019, 05:36:20 PM
As much as I would love Greece to take Gold, its not gonna happen... Cheesy USA (no matter how many superstars arent there) and Serbia are way too strong. Actually in my opinion even Serbia will have huge problems against those US guys. Greece can surely win a medal though - really important that Sloukas returns, otherwise its gonna be difficult. Coach is also thinking about getting Mantzaris back.
Still a big road to take before we can see which teams will prosper and make a good run bringing the pride winning the title, this three teams you mentioned have their different characteristics and talents, preparations between those national teams will give them enough chance to bring something and receive the glory.
939  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The secret of gambling? on: August 20, 2019, 05:27:55 PM
There's never a secret in gambling. Gambling unlike other stigmatized stuff should be really stigmatized. The secret of winning in gambling is to not make that bet. Rather buy a chocolate with the amount and feed to a homeless child. Atleast you will get back happiness. But if you gamble, whether or not you will win, you will lose because addiction to it is lethal.
Sad part of being a gambler is every time you wanted to hit the big win then you'll going to lose it back after, that hype inside you make you more aggressive instead of being satisfied  with what you already have, pushing for more will only lead you to make it worst, if you want to proceed  further then start realizing the possibilities and accept all the risk.
940  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: if you want to win big...accept defeat on: August 20, 2019, 06:57:07 AM
The biggest problem with a lot of gamblers is that they get emotional. Once they lose, they are always thinking they need to bet more to recover their losses. Accepting defeat is easier said than done to many gamblers. More than accepting defeat, they are thinking of recovery. However, their emotion is still a problem even if they are winning. Because they can easily become greedy and desire for more win rather than accept satisfaction. Defeat will eventually come to these kinds of gamblers.
Gamblers who don't have any control with this type of emotion can't afford to accept defeat, they will rather try pushing it more as long they still have something inside their bankroll, they will only realized that it's already damaging them once  everything already been burned, the only thing that will comes up to their minds is regretting not to slow down and allow bad things to happened.
