It's true about setting a budget and having breaks, a gambler needs these because if you don't have a budget in gambling what you'll do is just you're going to gamble as much as you might be and you'll not stop until you can't pull anything anymore. And if you do have, you need to learn how to manage it because it will still cause a problem even if you have a good budget but you don't know how to manage it and yes, you're just going to mess up with your own money when you gamble it.

Then the self-attitude towards it is now going to be the next problem. When you set a budget and you don't even follow your own rules, that's how you get yourself a trouble and you need to take a break when you deal with it. Because aside from being stressed on it, what you'll make is another mistake over a mistake so take time to rest and do yourself some help through it.

Yeah, they're like that and if it helps you to remember things about being responsible or with the task that you need to remember like to gamble only with certain money you have then it will help you. But just as you have said that you don't have any problems with gambling so, that's good to hear you out that you are not dealing with such problems because unlike other gamblers, they need to be reminded all over again for so many times until they get better in remembering that they need to be responsible as they gamble.

Someone might try it if it's going to work for them. Like what they say, if it works, it's not stupid at all because it's helping you. And if some other forum members try it and it's working on their end, then that only means that they just need to do as exact what he has said and look if the outcome will be the same as his.

I want privacy and that's going to be my decision if ever I win the lottery I guess that everyone can do that and request it to the lottery management while they can announce that someone unnamed has won it. It's funny that when I've seen in some news that a lottery winner has presented himself in a mascot. That's for real and that's the privacy that he's asking from the management and I think if they really are going to require the winner to be presented in the public and to the media, that's all that you guys have to do. Just put a mask and don't let any identifiable object be within you so the public eyes have no idea who the winner is.

But this is also can be done by management themselves and let it said that there's an actual winner where they'll just use someone to wear a mascot and declare that he's the one who's won today's jackpot. It can be a source of corruption and that's why for some countries that are known to be corrupt, they won't believe someone is a lottery winner unless it's being shown in the media with their bare and naked eyes. But for that winner, it's going to be a source to the robbers on who's the next target.

We've got limited reports and that's why I am also maximizing the use of it. And when definitely a teammate is very annoying and does ruin the entire game, they deserve to get reported and it's just so satisfying when Volvo responds that one action has been taken with my reports.

Dude, you just said it so. It's for real, even if you are the best player, I think you can't survive to a region that has a lot of toxic traits. Dota 2 is one of the most toxic games globally. What we usually see rise in the ranks are those with parties and all of them are good and likely boosting each other.

IG is now waiting for the finals. They're waiting on who's going to win with the match of Team Zero and Team Bright.

And that guidance should be with no stain and just pure because the minds of these kids are very pure and that's why we need to be careful with what we're introducing to them and what we're showing to them. Because as gamblers, if they see that to us and we're doing it, that's where the part that they might remember it until they grow old and justify that act of theirs.

Yeah, I agree.
We always need to supervise our kids because we will never know what's on their heads and what's being fed to them by these technologies if we're not going to check them. Without monitoring, they can go with other activities that they shouldn't be introduced at a young age and that's why we need to be there at all times for them.

Don't forget about sportsbetting and it's not just only poker that you've got the power to decide whether you can analyze and at least add some percentage rate of winning. And for those that have been winning that much and don't know how to pick their bankroll from that part and continue going on with their profit, it's always the hard case in gambling.

You don't see yourself doing such because all you want to think about is winning. That's being over optimistic with your run and that's the usual minds of most gamblers. It's not only about having fun but it is also about winning and making money in gambling even though many folks always say that you just have to have fun as you gamble.

You want to have fun and don't want to make money. Those are two different things although we cannot push to win everyday but having the mentality of it's okay to lose, you shouldn't gamble and just do some other things to have fun so that you won't waste your money in gambling.

That's so true, they're resourceful and thanks to all the videos that they're watching that helps them develop their minds and thinking without us knowing that they know more than us. That is the reason that you shouldn't even give them space to think about gambling or never show it to them because once they have seen it you do it, that's not going to stop playing on their minds on what you do and if that's for real money.

As long as you monitor the tracks of your kids online and with the usage of gadgets, smartphones, laptops and PCs, you'll still be in good faith. But if you're the type of parent that never does daddy duties then you might be able to see that your kid is someday already doing things that you've been doing like gambling. That's the hardest part of being a parent that we see them do what we've been doing that we don't want them to do.

While I agree with the whole thing about what OP has said but we need to consider the current situation if we're just going to buy with $10, $20 or $50 because of the fees. The highest priority will charge us with $11 or 227 sats/vB and that's a lot for the little investors if that's what they're going to do right now.

I am not discouraging to invest with the little that you have but save that money first and wait until the fees drop off and be back to 1 sat/vB. It's going to take a while but it won't be that long as we wait for it to drop. But it's true that you don't buy the whole thing when investing in Bitcoin because that's the wrong idea of many that sees towards it.

It's not forcing you people to invest on it and buy the 1 Bitcoin and that's why the fractions that you can invest with, just focus there and aim to have at least a few decimals of it if you ever started to like buying and investing bitcoin. This isn't just all about liking it but understanding that it's best to have it during these times because of the inflation, crises, etc.

We don't know what's waiting ahead of us and that is because we have no idea if we are still able to do the things that we've been doing for so long. So if I get older and I'm still having some fun with gambling, why not? As long as I won't be spending all of the pensions that I have because I may look like an idiot doing that and spending more than what I can afford to lose.

So if basically I want to gamble at that time, I'll spend the most spare money that I have or if someone gives me money, I may take a bit from that portion because that's how. Like the old days, it's all about doing myself a favor and winning some and losing a lot more. 
Honestly, as long as we know what amount we're spending to gamble and the way we're living by that time, it's no problem.

Whether you gamble or do any other activities that the oldies are doing, you're on yourself and only you can know such things that you are about to do. With the money you have, you're free to spend them everywhere but don't you forget that we're old by that time and can't work that much anymore.s

Yeah, it's even going to ruin your game if you explain it for every game and that's why there's the report button either for misbehavior or communication that we can easily press and send to Volvo for them to take action. I've been reporting as well with those teammates that don't play well because of how poor they communicate and toxic they are.

I didn't really know him but the roots was there and I'm happy that he's able to reach that rank while if you go in some specific regions, you will barely reach immortal if you play such roles especially pos 4 and 5 and you know why is it. Well, yeah, it's all about the toxicity that we're getting from random teammates.

Team Aster is no longer the former roster that they had during the qualifiers of TI and it's completely a different roster they have. What I think this slot will be taken by is by the Invictus Gaming.

Yeah, they need to improve first but it seems that they're proving themselves last year was a good start and all they need is to maintain the current roster and if they can add more, that's much better. Adding with more fine and someone who's got more experience during crucial times like in the playoffs. What they did last season was actually good because was it the first time again that they're back at playoffs?

I've seen this but if they're going to take any from those, it's best if they'll take DeMar DeRozan. I think that everyone is going to agree with that. But anyway, we've got different thoughts on who's going to be better with them and it's them that's going to decide, so let's see the development on who's going to be taken if this interest becomes reality.

Probably with his ego, much better if LAC rebuilds or shows interest of trading him off with someone from the other team just to get rid off him. Because if this continues, the problem might be bigger and they'll not be able to reach playoffs.

Woah, that's a lot and yeah that's already a hit on him and if he's going to feel that much then he'd be careful with the next time he reacts with situations like that.

They've been consistent and I like this team now. Last season, they ended up greatly, and for sure they're going to end up better this time. Just more chemistry and this team is going to be liked and noticed by most NBA fans. Will this roster that they now have is going to be the roster that they'll win their 2nd NBA championship? Because the last one that they have was from 1951.

He's aware of that and there's no other way to go but to just play with the team and be the better him. Get alongside together with the other key players and then help the team to get wins. Attitude beats talent and that's what he's going to get with that type of mentality and actions he's bringing to the team. He's expected to bring the very best of him and contribute to the team but that's not happening as we can see.

A frustration indeed but if it gets serious and that leak is for real, there can be some issues again for the LAC and to him.

Meta is changing and these players who have been considered superstars really don't get along properly. A team that's with this roster should be on the top but that's not happening because everything has changed now with the league if it's about these roster shuffles. I'd still say that chemistry is way better than of combination of superstars.

That's better than just 1 game. Well, no matter how many games the suspension will be for Dray, it's not going to matter anymore to him. He's always this aggressive and that's usual.

Yeah, much better if it's tougher because he's known for brawls like this and his attitude toward these troubles. But then, if it's already decided then that's much better than having lesser suspension at all. Is there any fine that's going to be sanctioned to him? With these fights, usually they get higher sanctions and fines, right?

It's said that it's for real but not until it's official, then it remains as a rumor. But you know with these locker room conversations, most of them are real.

Who was that guy in the Mavs that commentated about this thing with Harden? He just said the reality of what should sink in with Harden. This is an attitude problem that teams shouldn't condone. If he wants already out of the team after just few games, he's messing around and soon it won't be surprising if no teams want to take him.

I remember some players that have retired because no teams want to take them anymore and he could be on that position as well as his retirement will go too early. But even with that, he'll just take the money with him and the contract until it expires. I'm not sure if the $900M deal is also for real in Saudi Arabia.

But it seems that it's just like a bluff because of how fun it is going with Harden. Honestly, there are two players in my eyes that are becoming the memes material these days, one is Harden, second is Poole.

While that's true and everything can be learned on your way and that's what you just have to remember. Being successful is what everyone is achieving of whether it's with gambling or with Bitcoin trading. But i think it's a different thing with trading, it's like that you're having the feeling of more successful on it when you win your trades.

And that is because you're applying more strategies and principles to it to win such trades. Not just all about luck or what not and you have to analyze what you do. That means that whether you're a good gambler, you can also be a good bitcoin trader. But it doesn't make sense that if you're not going to learn or study what you do.

Because everyone who has become a good bitcoin trader came from nothing to something. And gambling is like your extra session of learning trading because of the logical thinking that you can get from there through taking and managing risk that you are able to.

But guess what? They've won against that lineup, it's true that with one mistake, the game table can be turned wholly and that's what happened. It's still the experience of being patience and looking for a situation that the opponent can slip and Team Tough did that while BLR's patience paid off. They're now qualified to closed qualifiers.

I get to experience that and whenever I encounter one, I don't prolong it and put that teammate into mute and I report them with communication misbehavior. Anyway, are you guys familiar with Grubby? I am not familiar with him until there are some articles that I've seen about this guy and he just became immortal rank recently. And looking at the SA open qualifier #2, they're about to end. I am not familiar with these two teams, Mad Kings and Invaders, they're now in the finals.

Yeah, EG has already dropped the bomb and their roster. After having a successful run in the NA and were able to make a TI title with their perfect old roster. The next consecutive years were no longer move for them and I think the experiment for this last season was like the last chance for them to see if their journey on Dota 2 will still be good.

They're good because they were qualified in TI but looking at the ending and run of their team, it wasn't so good and even the prize pool, they're not good at all. I miss this team now, the old roster from NA together with teams like Fnatic and Digital Chaos, etc. There are a lot of them and all the other players that have been gone all of a sudden.

Going back to this roster of Boom Esports, that's true that they're like one of the top 3 so they should be fine if given three slots is always done to them for most major tournaments that are coming this year ending and for sure a lot, next year.

I think that there's a conflict of interest if they do that with their own casinos. If you see one of them does gamble on their own platforms and they are advertising it, you know that there's always the catch that can be done through marketing. And that's why they're doing it for the sake of their own branding and not for them as they gamble.

And if they gamble somewhere else, in other casinos, there's a tendency that they're trying to get familiarized with other casinos for them to see if there's any gambling experience from those and to what they own. The comparison will be there for them to check everything out and if there's anything that they can apply or change to their casino, they will have to.

That's why we don't know if they do or not, and if they do then there goes those possibilities that we're talking about. But I guess that most of them are just doing it mostly for business and never do it for their own pleasure.

That depends on the person that's into that state and situation. Usually, it's just all about being free from financial burden and that's what's being kept as the goal for most of the people. We just want to have a good night sleep without having to think of the debt during the night and then we wake up with still the same problem.

For the majority that aims to have a financial freedom, we think that when we reach to that point, we won't have burdens anymore. But you know what, as I've said that it depends on the person. As you become free in financial burdens, your lifestyle might increase and that can cause some problems in your way.

That's why whenever someone achieves that goal, it's important to still keep your low in the ground and live within your means and not beyond your means.
