And most important what scares me, that casinos will hide behind "there is a demand on such betting" and there really be people who will find this demanding.

They are going to lose their reputation and it will backfire for their being insensitive, war is bad and when you talk of war you talk of atrocities you do not make a bet on war, even if they say there is demand I doubt if the casino will do that, they will receive backlash not only from the gambling community but from the international community as well.

In fact, if casinos are in profit they should donate to victims of wars regardless of race.
Casinos should leave war and gamblers should be responsible for requesting this, although I doubt if there will be requests like that

I had a friend who did that and had the same fate as yours he advanced his two months' salary as a loan and lost everything in e-sabong a very popular online cockfighting that used to be so popular here in our country and he had no option but to sell his laptop and other appliances that he can sell because his two months salary is already for paying the loans.
His wife almost left him because they could not pay the bills and the house rent, he suffers too much because of the loan he uses for gambling, so if you think of getting a loan to gamble, don't or never do it or your life will be miserable.

Now, there's a simple question that I want to ask: do you guys think I should introduce her to gambling? If yes, what's the easiest game she can stake in and also enjoy while gambling?

Yes why not but show her your stat your bad stat so she'll know that playing in casinos is not a way to make money and explain to her all the facts about gambling that gambling is not a way to make money, that gambling is for entertainment only and there is such a thing as a house edge and the house always win, the longer you play, the bigger the house has a chance to beat you.

She will be discouraged from playing for money once she understands the facts about gambling, and the best and the easiest game to play that you can recommend to her is dice and slot, guide and monitor her to make sure that she plays within what you taught her about the facts on gambling.

I've get to know that not all gamblers need to be a responsible gambler, some knows, they are not hypnotized by gambling, they are fully awake and they still choose to be a reckless gambler.

That guy can be considered a one-in-a-thousand gambler, as a gambler you know it hurts when you lose some gamblers feel it even if it is a small amount, and some gamblers stop playing for a period of time when they lose a big amount of money.
For a gambler to lose a huge amount of money and not feel the hurt of losing that amount, this guy is not playing for the outcome anymore, he is playing for the perks or for the thrill and he doesn't care about the money.
He can do this because he has the mean, I have read stories of this kind of stuff from super-rich people from oil-rich countries, they don't care about the amount of money because money keeps flowing to their bank.

It is obvious that no good thing that come easy and when you are not lucky in gambling you are not lucky and a lucky person in everything he tries might still be a lucky person on gambling
Even your post is like a mess and you must write it better.


I also have a hard time understanding it maybe it comes from a translator, but anyway the casinos will not make money if they only allow rich people and if many poor believe that they are not allowed to play in casinos, gambling is for everyone whether it's a land base casinos or online casinos, in fact, there are gambling platform that caters for poor people, here in our country there are number games where those who are betting are poor people and the collecting agents' bettors are mainly comes from the poor sectors.
And when it comes to chances there's hardly any difference, and there are gambling platforms where the majority of the winners are poor and there are gambling platforms where the majority of the winners are rich, but whether you are poor or rich you are welcome and you have a right to gamble, just be a responsible gambler.
946  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: David Benavidez Vs Demetrius Andrade Interim WBC Super Middleweight title fight on: November 27, 2023, 03:28:58 PM
^^ Yes mate, and I do agree with what Porter says, his analysis is spot on and I think majority of the members here see that one. It's the youth of DB that really give problems to Canelo. And then you have to think about the power and the stamina being young to be able to go toe to toe with a not so prime Canelo at this point.


When Canelo moved up, Dmitrii Bivol was the champion, making it challenging to expect the same domination as in his previous division. I believe Canelo might not make a similar decision again and will likely stay in the current division, facing opponents like David Benavidez, who has showcased power and secured impressive wins against Demetrius Andrade.

However, if you're suggesting that Canelo is already out of his prime, or 'not so prime' as you stated, I disagree. I believe he is still in his prime. While his loss in the new division was acceptable given the circumstances, if he remains in a division where he is comfortable, we need to observe further before concluding that he is 'not so prime' anymore.

Have you read this article
https://www.boxingnews24.com/2023/11/shawn-porter-says-benavidez-doesnt-need-canelo-alvarez/,  This is a good read for those who think that it's possible to have a Canelo - Benavidez fight this is an insight from former welterweight Shawn Porter who I also think that Canelo has no intention of fighting Benavidez, he never mentioned in any of his interview of the possibility of meeting Benavidez in the ring.

I never doubt that Canelo is great but Benavidez is just too massive and far stronger and better than Canelo and the article presented the fact, but I still want to see the fight happen, if it happens it's going to be both fighters' biggest, and can be considered a legacy fight, Benavidez is very much willing it's just up to Canelo if he wants to fight him.
947  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Scam or not ? Transer funds Require Top up on: November 27, 2023, 02:41:37 PM
The design is poorly created even a newbie in coding can do better, the first rule before joining a site is to use Google to confirm if the site is legit or valid, the life span of this phishing is short because people are quick to report it, so if you verify the site you will hardly see reviews about the site and if there are it usually scam reports.
The second rule is if the site asks to top up or verify your address by depositing to validate the address that is a clear sign that it is a scam.
948  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Platforms Where You Get The Same Level Of Enjoyment Like You Do In Gambling on: November 27, 2023, 01:59:41 PM
My alternative to gambling is always been watching action and horror movies on Netflix, I have the same level of excitement doing both, so if ever I cannot gamble as long as there is an internet, and I have an active subscription to Netflix and there are a lot of action and horror movies available to watch I'm ok with it.
In fact, I shuffle between the two, I make it a point to have a 30-minute break from gambling to watch 30 minutes on Netflix and then come to play again.
Since both are on the internet I can easily the leave the gambling platform or even if I lose I just watch a movie and forget my losses.

Our platform is developed in-house and is not reliant on any 3rd-party casino software providers.
And of course, your player-to-player feature, PVP is not popular in the gambling community you need to build supporters and community around your platform and you can do this by launching a review campaign and a signature campaign it will help to market your features and become a competitive gambling platform.
But before you need to fix your announcement as recommended by other members post images that will highlight your casino's best features, when it comes to making an announcement first impression last.
950  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Ryan Garcia vs Oscar Duarte (December 2) on: November 26, 2023, 03:54:24 PM
After the Andrade - Benavidez fight that ended in the way that we expected, this Garcia-Duarte is something to watch out for we all know Garcia has an edge and he is the heavy favorite in the match, but I'd like to see what are the things that change on Garcia's fighting style, did he improve, is he more on defense, because in his last fight against Davis, he is all attack with little defense that is why Tank easily beat Garcia being a counterpuncher that he is.

Will we all see a better Garcia someone who pressures his opponent and at the same time very calculated with his moves?
Garcia still attracts a lot of boxing fans but they need to see a Garcia who can become a multi-title boxing champion, not a social media king, and this will be answered on December 2.
951  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Easy with unusual/strange gambling sites on: November 26, 2023, 02:40:26 PM

This might been seem a drama to some of us here but the truth is that we really have to be careful on how and where we bets because lot of online (chance-based gambling) leaves you with a site of demo with its tools bars and graphics basis all to pin you down with most exciting offers that are not reality.


You should drop the name of the casino so we can check its reputation, I never played on new casino that I stumble on sites I'm visiting, I prefer to play on casinos with an official announcement here, with active representative here and with good feedbacks coming from the community, its hard to be experimental in your approach when it comes to casinos.

It will only be ok if you're testing the site or exploring site but not with a huge amount, in your case you did the right on only depositing $5 I believe its a money that anyone can lose and test the site, since its not a big amount, but I recommended if the site is already ok based on your experience you should still wait out or checked for more feedbacks and see if the positives outnumber the negatives.
952  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: David Benavidez Vs Demetrius Andrade Interim WBC Super Middleweight title fight on: November 26, 2023, 01:13:23 PM
Andrade has good lateral movement but he cannot keep up with the pressure, the matchup came as expected, Benavidez imposed his size and targeted the body to limit Andrade movement and it paid off, Andrade received too much punishment before his corner stopped the fight from the referee's recommendation.
After this fight Canelo should give Benavidez a chance to fight him, this is what the boxing community wants and this is the only way that he will cement his legacy as the greatest Mexican fighter, Benavidez is the only block to his road to glory and he should grant this or people will call him a coward.
There's no other fighter that can match Canelo's supremacy in the Super Middleweight only David Benavidez.

953  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Subriel Matias vs. S. Ergashev (IBF jr. welterweight title) Nov. 4: Las Vegas on: November 26, 2023, 11:49:49 AM


I do agree, Prograis, Romero and Lopez will be a good matchup for him. His style is definitely makes the fights very difficult for this fighter. But let's see if they are willing to fight a pressure fighter like Matias.

I admire Matias and I became an instant fan he is a pressure fighter he knows his opponent, Ergashev will move a lot because of his good lateral movements but he gambles by moving forward and preparing to get hit so he can get a hit, Ergashev may be surprised how Matias stood his best punches, between the two Ergashev is the power puncher, based on the statement of a fighter whom they both beat.
I don't think Ergashev's excuse of having a leg cramp was true, he just couldn't take Matias's punches it was very obvious in his reaction whenever he was hit by Matias's punches.
Romero and Lopez will have a hard time, fighting Matias, his style is very different and hard to deal with.
954  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Subriel Matias vs. S. Ergashev (IBF jr. welterweight title) Nov. 4: Las Vegas on: November 26, 2023, 02:58:16 AM
Subriel Mathias retains his title by making Ergashev quit, he started slow but eventually, picked up the pace and systematically broke down Ergashev, Subriel fought a great fight he just ate up Ergashev's punches and poured his own punches, intelligent fight by Subriel against a guy who is considered very dangerous, he has hurdle the best obstacle of his fight by beating  Ergashev it looks like we have Romero, Lopez and other champions will have a hard time against Subriel.
He is now 24-0-24, this is an awesome record, he is now under the radar of champions like Haney, Romero, and Lopez.
He is now a fighter to watch after this fight.
955  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Best Country To Live In For Crypto Casinos?# on: November 25, 2023, 10:09:58 PM
Hi all!

Ive noticed recently that more and more crypto sites are requesting KYC, and more and more restricted jurisdictions are being added to said sites Ts and Cs. This is a problem for a lot of people on this forum who like to gamble anonymously, and, perhaps use sites that are "blocked" in their home countries.

My question then is, which are the best countries that can access these sites without issues, and pass all KYC checks? I'd love to hear your opinions!
I think it is not on the country it is more on the kind of documents that they can accept, and that you can provide, once your location is listed as one of the accepted countries in their platform they accept major documents like driver's licenses, passport, and national ID in the first place why would accept players in that country if they will not accept their documents.

So the most important here is to check if your location is accepted in the casino where you are going to play and ask the support, for the documents that they are willing to accept, whether you're living in a third-world country or a rich country, the documents are all the same.

But for reference here is one of the lists.

Love to see when they want to get at it during the weigh in,

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7D157qKFGr0

Probably one of the most underrated fight for this year, but for sure since both are knockout artist this could be also a explosive fight.

Good thing is that they make the weight, no issues whatsoever, so this is also good to go.

Ergashev, a big underdog 3:1 but he could really test Matias here.

I'm not going to miss this one as much as I don't want to miss the Benavidez - Andrade match, I hope it will not become another Stevenson - Delos Santos match because both fighters have good records they will avoid each other, I don't want to see that kind of fight ever again.

I hope they lived up to their record honestly this is the first fight I will see Matias and Ergashev fight and I expect an all-out fight because they both want to protect the 0 in their records.
OP should change the title, members might think that this fight is already over because of the wrong date on the title.

Until  there is real evidence of the problem being resolved I will remain  firm with my initial view of Bc.game casino as a fraudulent casino.  So I don't care where you start from  and with a new or old account because we here only want evidence like what you claim to solve cases. There no need to beat around the bush that in reality  everyone wont just stay silent just because you bring new news doesnt mean all complaints are resolved.  You have time to clean up your reputation but if it continues there  will be no solution and the more users complain that your actions don't  match what you say.
And I agree this thread is pretty useless if complaints in the scam section keeps accumulating and old ones are not resolved and closed, they have to resolve the old ones for the community to believe that you have a good intention in creating this thread, there are cases where you undergo mediation and lose and yet you delay payment.

Its good that you did not moderate this thread if this is moderated you will get more bad feedback because it will become self serving, you have to accept that people will not like you creating a thread like this when there are open accusations that needs to address.
Lets see in the coming weeks if this thread serves it purpose of building trust and transparency.
958  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling with crypto because taxation makes no sense? on: November 25, 2023, 12:44:47 PM
Taxation is a topic that often comes up when it comes to someone winning anything in gambling.
The so called "nationally licensed" providers will usually automatically get a cut from anyone's winnings whenever they win anything.

This happens in a land based gambling platform where the government cut 10% or even more of the winner's earning even before they received their winnings, but on online casinos especially on Crypto casinos you will have to declare if you agreed to include it in your tax declaration and this is why its attractive to play on online casinos because of the government's tax cut

Quote
And let's be realistic, we all know the drill with gambling. Most gamblers are not in the green and those that persist do it for the thrill of it, not to earn from it. So when you win, it's usually from your own bank. But whenever someone is lucky enough to catch a break, governments will slip in and take their share. Regardless if you've lost more than you've earned in total for instance. The irony on this matter is also that gambling wins are used to substitute how many taxes these state "licensed" casinos have to pay. So the whole subject of gambling taxation is unfairly structured towards the player.
The government will always find a way to tax their citizen in everything they do and they see gambling as the easiest because they see this as a luxury and they think only those who has the money will play in the gambling platform.

Quote
I'd imagine that many people actually chose to gamble with crypto to avoid these restrictions and bureaucratic procedures. It really makes no sense to go through all these troubles to tax a small winning amount. Still if someone happened to win a large amount on a small bet by chance, I'd imagine some people would want to tax it so they can spend it in the real economy as fast as possible.
I agree that is why the Crypto casino are now a multi billion industry and is taking a big cut from land based casinos because of the taxation, the government will find it hard to tax someone who is anonymous unless the government compel the online casinos to show their winner's information for taxation.
959  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can old generation cause the habit of gambling in young generation ? on: November 25, 2023, 08:42:22 AM
There are some old people in my family which are paying cricket fantasy games. They usually talk about the games and their performance is matches almost daily. It is obvious that if any younger guy in family will listen about this, he will also be eager to know more about this. How can I stop the younger generation in my family being carried away by this and focus on other important things like studies only ?

The older members of the family can explain to the younger generations about the game they are playing if there's constant communication between the family I don't think there will be any problem at all as long as they limit their exposure to this type of game which may lead to gambling.

If the children have respect for their elders and they are taught the values of the most important thing in life and what they should prioritize I don't think there will be a problem when they are growing up being exposed to this type of game.
960  Other / Off-topic / Re: Why the rich win gambling more than the poor. on: November 25, 2023, 01:28:06 AM
I have observed that the rich, I mean those who are financially comfortable, win more in gambling than the poor. By poor, I mean those who do not have enough to meet all their needs. I don't know the reason for this. Could it be that the rich understand financial management more? Or could it be that the rich are less desperate to win which make them make better gambling decision? I really want to know the reason for this pattern I have observed.

It's not general it's still on a case-to-case basis because I've seen rich people losing a lot of money because of poor mismanagement of their bankroll, the reason that many rich gamblers are successful in gambling is that they can keep up they have a huge bankroll they can exploit and they can take the risks and you can do that if you are not limited with your bankroll.

I have experienced this in many of my sessions I have limited bankroll so I was betting a small amount and although I have more winnings than losses it will not amount to success because of my small bankroll, butt hat doesn't mean that if you have a huge bankroll you can easily win you have to exploit and you have to take risks and you have to be patient, rich gamblers have no limitation because they have the money, compared to poor people who will think twice betting huge and employing methods that can bring them success.
