Never assume that gambling is a permanent job, making it a weekend entertainment to unwind maybe it's better Grin
That's true , it might worth only when you feel it is make you satisfy get entertained.
But when you set a target to make gambling profitable in the long run of course it will never be worth.
So make sure you did not get addicted to gambling and play occasiinally only.
942  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do any people gamble under the age of 18? on: June 03, 2017, 10:46:27 AM
Many of these things cannot be dammed by education and parents. But there is a point where teenagers do not always have a lot of money, so when they lose and no more money, they will stop and regret their actions. This happens to 80% of teenage gamblers who feel no gambling talent. I myself have gambled since age 17.
I doubt instead they will get stop to gamble immediately , they might doing something crazy because of gambling addiction.
It could causing a they will try to steal money because the desire to gamble is so strong.
It could ruin their time to study also , the point is a kid just a kid!

But 16 days !! are you kidding me? It should be a serious problem , it is indeed since yesterday they have a problem about deposit and withdrawal proccess.
Because there is super large volume and a lot of request made at once! Can you beleieve it? How can they handle it until causing some lag and these deposit/withdrawal issue, they are growing too fast and the dev did not anticipate about it!
944  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: June 02, 2017, 06:05:14 AM
In my country gambling is considered unlawful act. Meaning that gambling is wrong. And right, gambling has taken up time, thoughts and money we have. There's more to do and certainly more benefits than gambling.

We take it simple, gambling is wrong from the beginning, and whatever we do, even though we play gambling correctly and according to the rules, we keep doing the wrong thing, and doing the wrong thing is wrong. And more wrong if we fall deeper until addicted.
I don't think gambling is wrong, it's some sort of entertainment.
Nothing is wrong in testing your luck and trying to win something as long as you are playing with money which you can really afford to lose. Gambling is wrong when it starts to effect on your life and on life of people which are around you, for example your closest family.
yes gambling itself is not wrong, but it depend on the way we play gambling. most of the people consider gambling as wrong because they do not play gambling under strategy,  i think those people who can play gambling with planning they will never consider gambling as wrong activity. to me i personally like gambling and consider it as profitable activity. but you just need to play it with some planning.
So you think the one who gamble with clear plan and make profit from it is the right one?
I don't think so , gambling itself mostly leading people into some bad things such as break your social realtion etc.
That's why people call it as a wrong thing , there's a lot of bad things rather than good things caused by gambling you know.
That's what I mean. Gambling is illegal in many countries, and they will not decide gambling is illegal without any cause. Facts talk, more bad things will happen than things will happen. The examples I do not think need to be mentioned because we already know it. So illegal gambling is to prevent people from doing bad things later on.

Yeaaa a lot of reasons why , gambling makes the poor getting more and more poor.
Gambling has a risk to make a lot of problem , and at some point it is a place to cheating / fraud.
Then should we call gambling as a pure wrong thing? Well it is up to you.
945  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: how to start trading with a very small amount on: June 02, 2017, 05:42:04 AM
you can join the exchange with small amount of trade
and in trading for newbie,a basic strategy is to look at 24hr high and low
(24hr high + 24hr low)/2,if the current ask is bigger than median you should sell and vice versa
That's won't help to get developed faster to the next level.
Better to make your small capital grow up to bigger by taking high risk on high volatile altcoin.
Small amount to stake and big return , and then after that you can earn slowly.
946  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: June 02, 2017, 05:30:59 AM
Winning money through gambling gives us a huge dopamine response (reward system that feels great).  Once that fades, we would naturally want to have that feeling again by winning.  Some people are better at managing this with logic and rationale or even fear, but others are dopamine fiends and need to continue to play.
I completely agree with your opinion , people did not realize about this situation directly.
But by keep chasing the lost you have , and desire to win more and more money it is shows how get hooked you are.
Be logic sometimes not guarantee you anything to control yourself to not get addicted

Yeah treating gambling as a source of income, where you "need" to end on top...I think that's where it starts to get dangerous.

If you go in with money that is acceptable to lose, and understand the odds are against you, but you just might luck out, then it's fine.  This goes for games where you're playing against the house.  For playing poker against other people, then it depends on your ability to play relative to your peers.

Logic would keep you from being addicted, which is more of an impulsive/emotional response.
Yeaaa sometimes you really need to completely understand about how the odds always against you to avoid confusing and some curious feeling too keep trying and choose on that trap odds right?
But still as at the first place basically gambling itself contains something addictive then you should be careful that more than 50% you will get addicted in the end.
947  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do small investments make sense? on: June 02, 2017, 05:05:54 AM
I would say that one small investment would be a waste of time money and energy. Several small investments would be considered by some to be a wise strategy. I would recommend in this case not to choose a Bitcoin casino as the profit margins are more or less consistent. I would suggest putting several small investments twits a market that has potential for growth.
Not sure it is really wasting time since there is still benefit to make it as a training session.
To learn something before you have to go bigger amount.
Or maybe you can put small amount on high risk to get big in return right?
Both are i think has a good benefits if you go in small invest and you are betting for a large profit maybe you can gain a good amount with small amount and low risk. small investment is always work on trading if you buy them for a cheap price that can start growing and sell them with high price. well i think its a part of the experience when you are losing experience in the first time..  so investing small amount is part as a starter test..
Good as long as you stick to the plan , i mean to keep in control.
The problem to invest small amount to go trading is when you cannot decide when is the right time to buy it while cheaps?
But actually the point here is about how a low amount investment could be worth? And i think it is worth just for the newcomer only, to gain exoerience!
948  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you feel when win in gambling? on: June 01, 2017, 10:21:35 PM
Win or lose, I feel the same. I just enjoy the bet and the sports I am betting. I think I am luckier if I am happier and enjoying the game rather than thinking the bet. So I maintain a positive feeling whether I win or lose on a bet.
i think you are the only person who is even enjoying the lost also, i never seen such kind of person who is enjoying lost in gambling, because most of the people are enjoying gambling when they are making money. different people express their feeling in different ways, for me when i make money in gambling i mostly arrange a party and invite my friends. through this way i express the felling of my success in gambling.
Of course not the only one , there's a lot of people have same feeling as you out there.
For those people who completely enjoy the thrill and the game that push your adrenaline.
It might feel have no difference between lost and win as you love the game itself even befire you put a stake!
949  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does experience matter in gambling? on: June 01, 2017, 10:06:41 PM
Everyone starts with zero experience at one point.

Casino is easier to pick up than sports wagering. With sports it takes a while to pick up on line movement, weather adjustments, statistics, etc. I recommend whichever of the two you go with that you start slow and follow a few folks. 5% is a safe place to start with each wager amount .5% or so.
I normally start with a small amount only and I divided my bankroll into 1% per bet in sports betting, I find that method a very conservative one and it let me stay longer if I continue to be discipline. Once I discover how to improve my chances of wining, I might put a serious amount of bankroll.
When you gamble as a first timer you will make a hasty decision.
But not when you have some experience enough , you will need to think about any decision more than twice.
That's how experience could work and why it is really matter in everyone's life.
950  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is winning at Sports betting actually possible ? on: June 01, 2017, 09:55:19 PM
Not sure why OP asked this, but I think it is extremely possible but not at 100% accuracy. You can get a perfect bets but that's just a lucky bet maybe. Sports betting is still gambling, and there are chances that your prediction might have been right but the problem is that the star player got injured.
I think it is clearly the idea come from ajaxmoor sports tips thread here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=987312.0 as op stated.
In the long run when you are a sports addict and then become an expert when talking about make prediction , sportsbetting be more better choice to bet.
But when you have zero knowledge then there's no chance , just anothet 50/50 gambling.
951  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitcoin up altcoin dump on: June 01, 2017, 06:25:17 AM
So basically whenever bitcoin goes up, altcoin goes down and vice versa?
Yes technically if bitcoin goes up. Then we can say that many altcoins would goes dump becuase of many trades selling their altcoin and will affect theprice of it. And they will buy bitcoin as soon as it's lower and sell it high. So after bitcoin pump they will their bitcoins in higher and buying many altcoins that have affect in bitcoin pump
It is not as simple as the thread title said .
Actually the cryptocurrency market is so complicated to understand and hard to predicted.
I can say it is feel like random market and even manipulateable , so the topic is wrong for me personally.

953  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to control greed on gambling? on: June 01, 2017, 06:01:35 AM
This greedy system is guilty for all man's failures, they force us in their institutions, learning us what they want, paying us with their money and we buying food and other with this filthy money. At the end we are guilty when we have fantasy of normal life ..They call it Greed!
One day people will live in in better world.
in fact greed is here in man's nature. and it is one of the most difficult job to  control greed in gambling. those people who have control over greed they can really show good result in gambling. i personally have no control over my greed, i want to make more and more money and whenever i make one successful bet then i try to make it double and try to continue the trend until i lose the whole winning amount.
Yeaaa i agree , those people who successfully withdraw the profit is the one who take over themselves from greedy.
To be able to do that you need to get used to it in your daily activity.
Otherwise you will have a temporary control only , you need to make it as a habit too.
954  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What is your trading strategy? on: May 31, 2017, 10:32:17 PM
Buy low sell high doesn't work anymore because i can't fucking buy low, the price is climbing constantly  Angry
The price is still low even we have reached $2,500 , some people predicted it will go to $10,000.
Before then you cannot completely afford to buy in that pedicted price .
Think about it and start decide whether should buy it now? Or later when the price on the highest!

Now there is a great chance to buy bitcoin. The price has gone down a little and so many now buy bitcoin for long-term investment. I will also buy coins now to sell them in a few years
Just be ready about every corrections made by the market.
Some people might would get panic and start to sell everything they have , you have to ignore about this and wait a little longer.
Future of bitcoin is indeed still unclear but the growth clear enough to see the price will keep increasing year by year.
955  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Do you see alts have chances against Bitcoins? on: May 31, 2017, 10:23:14 PM
Honestly, bitcoin is still in it best) there are chances but at bitcoin has more of them.I do not twist much in this, but from the conversations of the environment I understand that bitcoin is gaining popularity very quickly.
There is a lot of altcoins already in the market and it can be against bitcoin and some of them can takeover the place of bitcoin like the ethereum which is on the top 2 right now and getting closer and closer to the total market capitalization of bitcoin and it can overcome bitcoin if the hype of ethereum continues but the good thing is, we can get some cheap bitcoins if bitcoin will become dethrone because a lot of band wagon fans will surely sell their bitcoin.

No matter,many altcoins are available in the market and none of then can give competition to bitcoins. The reason is that most of them are made to get quick profits by pump and dump of coin and the only purpose to make altcoin is to earn profit.
I just beleive once eth could get over 0.5 bitcoin per 1 eth , that time eth ready to compete with bitcoin.
It is has been an old conversation about how eth could be a surprising altcoin more than ltc, dash or dogecoin.
And today we have seen the all time high eth price over 100mbtc / 1eth , the end is near really!
956  Other / Off-topic / Re: What's your way of spreading Bitcoin knowledge? on: May 31, 2017, 10:05:16 PM
I just asked my friends if they know the bitcoin therefore if they have no idea what is bitcoin I just asked them if they want to have an extra income then, if I seen them of interest I just explained them how to have an account and how to earn bitcoin. That's my way of spreading bitcoin knowledge.
Actually you can simply practice in fornt of them how bitcoin works virtually and in reality.
Bitcoin as a digital currency could used to buy stuff online and for some place it has offline merchants.
Show to them about it and explain immediately how easier your life with bitcoin .

958  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do any people gamble under the age of 18? on: May 31, 2017, 09:37:57 PM
The good thing about Bitcoin gambling is that most teenagers won't be able to buy Bitcoin on an exchange or anything.  So if they gamble, it would have to be with money that they had earned, so there's little danger of it being really bad for their family.
They getting there money from their parents or they stelling it hidenly from parents most of teenagers nowadays if they addicted to gamble they learning how to steal money from there prents and buy bitcoin.it may wreck there life soon

Yeah that is the sad truth when teenagers learned and get hooked to gambling.  They will steak even from their parents.  Then when they do not get enough, they will steal from other people.  Since they are young, they have a little resistance from urge of gambling and may commit theft if they do not have money.
Since nowadays you can always gamble easily through online casino without a strict rules about age , we will always see a lot of teenagers do gamble , but the problem is on how they can handle the greedy , most of them will not have power enough to resist on it.
And the result yeaaa leading to criminals things , really unfortunate if you let your kids doing this right?
959  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: May 31, 2017, 04:39:47 PM
There is no smart way to gamble, the smartest thing to do with gambling would be to avoid it overall IMO. The odds are always against the player particularly in casino games and dice, and regardless of the strategy the player is in the negative... However in sport betting, the trick of playing both sides in different SB's and getting the difference in odds is the only definitively profitable gambling strategy.

For those gamblers that wants and seeing a good fortune in gambling they should really not look for a smart way as it is not going to give them assurance to win. Gambling is simply gambling the way it is and there's no way to play smartly in gambling, it's risky and you need to take it if you are hoping to win. Staying away will be the best choice and do some other things for earning.
Indeed nothing can assure you to win with any way in gambling.
Everything is random , but at least when you do it smartly you could avoid the heavy lost.
Avoid to get addicted and keep gambling with happy feeling no matter what.
960  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Play with your profit or not? on: May 31, 2017, 04:30:36 PM
When you guys are gambling and already doubled your bankroll, do you still play with the whole money you got or you take away half of your bankroll and start playing with your profit or not?
It is much good to play with profit than not, though its hard to win in the games we knew that winning is always depending on luck for the gamblers.

Everyone had their own strategies regarding managing their money to gamble, there's people will used profit play another game even there's people who withdraw everything that they won from gambled and will gamble in another day. personally i used profit i got from gambled to gamble again but tried to not becoming too greedy.

I don't spend more money for gambling, always go with small deposits but if I win then usually I withdraw that money and invest in some altcoins. Because I gamble maximum around two or three times in a month so for next time gambling again I will play with my money. I don't keep winnings for again gambling.
To keep gambling what you have earned previously isn't a good idea indeed.
Slowly you will lost it all as your lucky time will not always there beside you.
So of course better to withdraw everything while you still in luck and looking for another luck at another time.
