Recovering from loses is something that should not be done in an aggressive manner and for sure there is no need to be under pressure to recover since you only gamble with the amount you can afford to lose and be comfortable with for some times,  so since ad a gambler you are already aware pf the risks that comes from gambling,  you already know how to position yourself to be in a better place at all time and also avoiding to get into any form of the situation that will pressurize you when the losses come.

Many times,  those who go along that route always end up recording more losses than they previously had,  so trying to chase recovery is one of the bad ways to gamble and stay safe.

The gambler who want to recover the loss of 1k dollars should not use the money of 500$ by getting credits from his friend circle.Because the loan with the gambling will not the better option,if you loss that 500$.Finalky you will get into the loss of 1500$ at the final.Instead use of the 50-100$ to recover the 1000 dollars loss,because if you loss that 50-100$ from the free money will not affect your monthly budget at the end.But that 500$ to recover loss is not the wise option,the gambler also play the gambling sometimes for the entertainment.Because the money targeting someone to become the gambling-addicted person at the end.
Even though I mentioned none aggressive chase to be ok for recovery,  still I have my reservations about the concept of recovery in its entirety reason being that gambling is a high-risk thing,  and no one can tell what the result of the next bet could be and for that there is no guarantee of ever recovering no matter how hard one tries.

So the best is to play the games with an amount you can afford to lose and still be comfortable with walking away with any attempt to recover and if you going to gamble again,  it should be because you want to have more fun and not to recover from previous loses.

Federal Government of Nigeria ordered the central bank of Nigeria CBN to ban all the cryptocurrency related services
First of all no be federal government order for the ban of inter bank cryptocurrency transactions,  and the guideline of the restriction came from the central bank and not the presidency so let get that straight.

Secondly there was no arrest of anybody at least none that we know or read about.

Thirdly the current President of not order the central bank governor to unbanned cryptocurrency as you speculated,  because the policy that give birth to the lift in the ban of inter bank cryptocurrency transaction is part of the financial policies of thPreviewusus administration and already approved by the sec,  before the new government took over.

In conclusion,  I advise you to go back and do more reading and to gain accurate information about the whole thing.

How can we compare what you hold a commodity for and what you have zero commodity for?

In trading you are engaged in buying and selling and exchange of commodity and you either decide when to sell or hold your asset and when to even visit the trading market.

But gambling is just a game of chances and you don't control the timing once you place your bet,  is either you lose or you win,  there is nothing like holding your bet for sometime, no the timing is counting and once exusted, the result will determine what you will walk away with at the end of the day.

So both of them are in comparable and have clear differences and calls of purpose if you truly understand them both.

On the time that you would really be having that kind of mindset then pretty sure you would really be able to make yourself not to be able to stop gambling completely as long you do have those kind of intents in mind on which this would really be keeping pushing you to play further more because you are really that trying out to thrive on hitting that thing on which it would really be that understandable that there would really be those moments on which you would really be that having those feeling on quitting but on the time that you would be thinking about recovery then this is where those emotions would be starting on kicking in for you to play once again. It is really just that a matter of perception and discipline towards gambling activity on which on the time that you wont really be that sensible into your actions
then this is where mistakes do usually happen.

966  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [A POLL] Without Chances of Making Money, Will you still be gambling? on: January 04, 2024, 08:23:32 PM
Depending on the games,  if it is house games that I drive real entertainment from as I am involved in the games then I will likely continue to gamble even when I record losses since I drive fun from them but although I still have more motivations if I win more than I lose.

But when it comes to games like football,  if I lose consistently I can decide to stop betting for a while since I will still enjoy watching the match regardless if whether I bet on them or not,  the thing is that,  there is a tin line between enjoying the games and losing or taking risk by betting on them.
967  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How often do you win? on: January 04, 2024, 05:15:44 PM
I only gamble on Tuesdays unless on occasions where I want to go out of my way, that is when I gamble Tuesdays and any other days of the week, and sometime I can go a month without tasting a win, but since I already understand my gambling pattern,  I take that as one of those times and hope that I will be lucky to make winning in days ahead.
 
So for that, I can not say how often I make winning or record losses,  but sometimes when I also lick I make wins continuously and may believe that I record more winnings than losses I check carefully and put all records in place.
968  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you see a gambling review website that has its own gambling website? on: January 04, 2024, 04:52:22 PM
I am asking this question because, for me, there could be a possible conflict of interest here.

As a review site running its own gambling site, there might be a concern that it could potentially undermine its competitors on its website to boost its own standing in the competition. This could involve making biased or false statements to praise their own website.

While I'm not certain if this is happening in the real world, it raises the question of whether you would trust a review website in such a case.
Well even though the casino a owned by a third-party reviews platform does not have anything significant to do with how I feel about them or my trust for the casino or even the review platform itself,  and one other thing is that,  even though the review site may be bias in their reviews of the casino,  it donest mean their will be able to control the review of other competitors and in most cases such casinos are the most watched by those reviews platforms since their are seen as competitor and all their feature will be put to dip testing to find any possible fault to nail them with and so for that their will make sure to give the best of what they have to offer at most and all time.

But for a fact I haven't seen such a platform with that dual services before,  and haven't read about it either,  I only assumed what would likely happen and I made my comment based on my own understanding.
969  Economy / Gambling / Re: Does anyone find the spate of online casinos a bit uninspired? on: January 04, 2024, 12:23:13 PM
Many people are currently playing online casinos because of technological developments which are becoming increasingly advanced, there are also many other things that can be done online, including paying bills or buying food online, nowadays there are many things you can do. online and of course this is a priority of the social network, apart from being a place to interact, the social network also provides many online casinos, but what you need to pay attention to in my opinion is the choice of casino because there are casinos that cheat too.

and there are also many people who do online casinos now live and indirectly those who do online casinos make bookies successful.
What social network are you talking about? About the World Wide Web or something else? I meant those social. networks where people gather based on interests. For example, Instagram, YouTube and so on. The latter is most suitable. I have already written about this earlier. There are a lot of online broadcasts of bloggers who play in casinos. It’s much easier for me to choose a playground than to look for information on a forum.
I think the member went a little bit off from the topics of discussion in the last paragraph of his comment by mentioning social media which build a line of thought in fruktik which brought about the mentioning of Instagram or YouTube,  but then we are discussing ways that online casino has impacted the society be it positive or negative ways.

Based on that, just as I mentioned before,  online casinos have gained popularity since the coming of covid19 lockdown down which led to players' adoption of online casinos since they became the only available option.
970  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Shared games helped you before? on: January 03, 2024, 10:45:48 PM
If you can not do extra work to check the previous stats of the clubs that want to meet, then you can make use of some prediction sites to select some matches. Do not believe in people because it is your money and if chasing to win huge amount with just small amount of money, you may keep on losing. I prefer just my single matches or accumulate not more than three matches with just little amount of money. Even if you want to stake accumulated matches, make the research yourself.
I have never been a fan of shared predictions no matter what their promise to put on the table,  and also I am lf the opinion also that one need to take extra time to research and check out various team's statistics any time you are working with a second person predictions,  the ability to accumulate information and being able to inter relate the with any situation at hand is what make the differences for those who ever recorded any success from shared predictions.

But those who rely on those predictions solely,  are those who will have problems with using such shared predictions and that is the reason for the multiple cases of losses that are registered using that pattern to place bets.
971  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Have we overlooked the many potentials of altcoins? on: January 03, 2024, 10:24:00 PM
A lot of times we have been down so much away from the role altcoins play in the cryptocurrency industry,  because there is no doubt the fact that many times,  we have come face to face with issues and challenges that make us to look for an alternatives,  and which is the reason for altcoins creations already,  such as fees,  congestion and speeds.

These have been most of the challenges that we face in the cryptocurrency industry with majority of the time our preferred coin may face network issues and we need to look for alternatives,  this has made it very important for us to discuss the best possible means to make use of altcoins as alternatives when there be network crisis.

What are the best coins to use at a time when there is network congestion in the main meme pool?

Using litecoin to move bitcoin is a tried and true way to move in and out of positions rather cheaply.  The problem that exist at least for US customers is that every trade triggers a taxable event.  So when you move from bitcoin into litecoin and then to and exchange into another coin you've essentially doubled your taxable responsibilities.  As long as you can track everything cleanly it's not that bad but tax laws make it annoying to do so.
Agreed on the presence of double taxation when you move coins around in a region where cryptocurrency trading are well taxed,  and regardless of what it may in terms of amount in taxation,  when compared with how difficult and tiring that process could be,  one may decide to just use Bitcoin and pay the network fees regardless of how much it may be at some point.

Although those altcoins are there to offer alternatives to Bitcoin in the best possible manner at the needed and right time for both investor traderswhoseo Bitcoin is already on the exchange and not on custodial wallets.
972  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: January 03, 2024, 10:14:55 PM

Girona scoring 3 goals in first half is a sign that they mean business. However, Atletico Madrid is not giving up as they have scored twice with their third cancelled. This would have kept goal that would have kept the match at a draw till half. The second half allowed Atletico to equalize and work towards winning. It is still an open match that can swing either side.

At the moment the match between Girona vs Atletico Madrid is going on a head luck draw of 3:3 and the Match is already in it 70+ minutes which is a well-spent time for the players of both teams to become tired and increasing the possibility for this match to end in a draw tonight.

And if you ask me I will say that this is the best time to stake in the live games and choose a draw and the match is going to end with the current goals recorded by both clubs.

It's pour act of irresponsibility that makes people blame their life outcome on other of things just like in the situation of your friend because as much as it is,  gambling gave it principle and it's left for you as a gambler to operate within that principle and also design your management plans both in time management and finances.

Main main reasons why many people fall into possible addictions is due to greed, the quest for huge profits and also in the inability to clearly stimulate the amount of time you are willing to gamble and not exceed the amount of time regardless of the results.
974  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can loneliness make one addicted to gambling on: January 03, 2024, 09:32:11 PM
A friend of mine only borrows money from other friends and deposits it into gambling and quickly repays the loaned money with gambling profits.  He has been gambling like this for a long time.  When asked he says his gambling is good and he enjoys gambling.  Gradually his gambling only increased.  So I think that Loneline actually increases the tendency to gamble and makes gambling more addictive. Because then they plan to win gambling and pay back the money they took from their friends quickly.  But they never think of losing side

Your friend is a very lucky gambler, most of the time gamblers that borrowed money to play don't make anything profitable from gambling. The fact that they lost all their money into gambling and has nothing left and think of an idea to gamble with borrowed money, they will definitely lost that one as well except for rare cases when a gambler doesn't have any money on them and they want to toss a coin to try luck from gambling to get one or two change but most of the time they do lost their games.

If you have a friend that gamble and clearly come to you with the intention of gambling and asks you for money, don't borrow them if you have the intention of collecting it back and if you wish to give them without collecting it back, then you can give them. They hardly pay back, I don't even know why a serious-minded person will think of borrowing money and then go and gamble.
To some extent m,  I see anyone who borrows to gamble with as people that lack the expected financial frame of mi d to be callegamblerrs and no matter what the result is that your friend releases and habit of always paying back his loans,  this makes it appropriate to say that,  he is no really making enough profits from his gambling activities,  and also since he has to borrow to take the next bet make it irresponsible.

One of the things that gives a gambler a stable state of mind is in his ability to have consistent financial management and enough liquidity to gamble with at all time.
975  Economy / Gambling / Re: Which are best stake alternatives on: January 03, 2024, 09:14:42 PM
In my opinion, there are many online casinos nowadays, the way they work is almost the same, the only difference is the appearance and the minimum deposit and also the minimum withdrawal. If the games are probably almost the same, I say maybe yes, because on site A there are games that are not available. on site B, because I had differentiated it, not out of curiosity but I found out accidentally when I was going to play on a new site and looked for the game I wanted and it wasn't there, even though I had searched using the "search for games" feature. There isn't any. and in my opinion this is one of the differences with what I said at the beginning of the minimum deposit and minimum withdrawal.

That's for sure, we have to be careful when having an online gambling site, because some cheat because I have experienced things that are detrimental to myself, and my weakness is that I can't differentiate between guaranteed sites and fraudulent ones. So I think you need to be careful when choosing a site because no matter how small the deposit value is, money is still money.
You are right, if you don't play carefully you can never save your deposit and if you leave it on the casino site you will fall into the trap of fraud later. When you gamble with your real money the most important thing is that you can be sure and secure that your transaction is safe and that you get your winnings without any delay and quickly. Good online casinos care about these things and strive to provide the highest and best service possible. gambling sites should be analyzed to choose the right casino.
When gambling one needs to be careful with what you do and if you must gamble then you should be ready to stay away from all forms of distraction which can come along the way and also make sure to stay active all through the time to take a necessary decision that can help you save your deposits if you can also make even some profits through the cash-out features.

Sometimes without a number, I have lost my entire bet due to my unavailable during the game period and even when I hard chance to take some profits after saving my deposits I'm as I am not active I lose everything along the line.
976  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Re: When last did you drank to stupol on: January 03, 2024, 07:03:38 PM
To some, alcohol is good, although medically sometimes it is prescribed, but it is used in a moderate manner, not by drinking 10 or even 12 bottles at a time, which is what is common among those who engage in the use of alcohol. The advice I will give here is to stay away from alcohol unless it is prescribed by a doctor in order to stay healthy.
Alcohol is not bad, short term too much consumption or long term consumption is what that is not good. Doctor do not have to prescribe to someone to drink alcohol. The only when to stop drinking alcohol is when doctor recommends someone not to take it anymore. But it is good to drink alcohol responsibly.
Seriously, alcohol intake is not as bad as people take it to be but what is truly bad is the abuse of the substance, A lot of people get carried away to the extent of not knowing their limits in bottles they consume and in the end,  they end up getting themselves uncontrollably drunk to the extent of becoming unconscious of what is happening around them or even acting is disorder manner.

Although I have never experienced that feeling in my life before,  but I have seen forks who have gotten drunk on daily and I can just imagine what led to that self-made temporary madness.

I believe that alcohol should be taken on a limited level and even if you consume on daily,  it should be in a small proportion that will not affect both your physical and mental well-being.

TrustDice official rep here.


Our ToS reads:
5.10 In order to make a withdrawal, a player must wager at least 5x the 1st deposit amount from deposits.



Sincerely,
TrustDice Team

Nice to see that you responded to this issue of wagering requirements and trustdice,  I have being following the discussion on the various threads and from my response I always mentioned that since the casino has the 5x wager requirement in their TOS it then means it they right and for every first-time deposit so I don't see any issue with that on the long run since I have to agree to the terms of haven't to wager 5X my total first deposits.

But also please can you clarify the above-mentioned part,  for instance,  what do you mean by first deposits,  do you mean that the 5x wagering is only applicable to first-time deposits only and every subsequent deposit is free from wagering?

Real Madrid has a very good chance of winning tonight since the opponent I much more demotivated than them and according to statistics,  Real Madrid is winning and I will give them my sure winning in the game,  and also topping the la Liga in this season,  the only clubs that could pause a threat to Real Madrid in this season is Barcelona and Atletico Madrid since both clubs are also eyeing the top position and both clubs doing so well in their various games during this season.

But for sure Asernal is far from the top in the table this season as we are seeing much weak performance that could help the club to recover to the best position like others who were previously prevailing position in the last season and where the club is expected to be by the fans and management.
979  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: January 03, 2024, 04:54:24 PM

Is true that they're good at messing up and for Arteta to be in this position he is at the table only means they have lost so many points and chances which isn't healthy for the club, if this continues it will only be when the fans start shouting for Arteta to be fired. If Arsenal mistakenly win the league I'd just say it's luck because they haven't shown any sign of improvement from last season, is like they're repeating the same mistake and wishing to win the title.
As it is, City are topping the league that's if you add up those outstanding games (the points) which to me they'll win it, you know that Liverpool and the others have no chance of bringing the Citizens down, so is best for this Arsenal team to start hoping for other teams who are competing for the title to lose while they win their games.
At the moment,  Manchester City is far from the trophy and even though they are the defending champions they still will need to put in the effort if they ever want to retain the title just as you speculated which looks impossible to me and for sure Liverpool may not be able to sustain the forces for the entire season since it just via miracle that they are sustaining the number one spot up until now and if in the next couple of matches, Liverpool failed to win just as there did in the last match it will be a big downside for the club,  but if there be lucky to win in the next legs of the matches there will be able to attempt a possible win in the season with their current point in the leagues table.

But for Arsenal,  it is now clearly impossible for them to make a repeat of their last season's results this season and due to recent results they're now far from the first spots in any way for the remaining days of this season.
