9861  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your reason to gamble? Fun or profit? on: January 04, 2017, 09:59:51 AM
I'm not sure that the people who say that they are gambling for the benefit they get what they want. I thought it was just wishful thinking to themselves. Because the fact, more lose money than make money. That fact, and you should be able to accept it. Maybe there are a handful of lucky people who benefit from gambling. So lying or not, can be accepted or not, gambling is a game played just for fun.

Yup...gambling is just for fun. We should treat it as a way to try our luck in a very limited time only. Recently, I saw a lot people that already got lucky while gambling but they keep betting and forced they luck and finally as
the final result they got busted. 
That's true, most gamblers that's want to try luck in the first place, but when the moment they enjoyed to play gambling they already wanted to win and wanted to get the jackpot which is we don't know when we will win in gambling exactly.
That's normal as even not in gambling we all want more in life, it's human nature that we seek the best and we want to be in a situation also that we are recognized that's we brag our winnings sometimes. The problem with us is we are doing it in a place that losers are rampant compared to losers, so it such way we must be contented even having a little profit as profit is profit.

Going further will only make us lose, there's always another day to gamble so we can enjoy our profit now as we stop.
9862  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Play with your profit or not? on: January 04, 2017, 09:45:44 AM
It's better to take out the original money and only use the profits. Also if you can start taking the profits out as well, that's even better.

Yes this is what I do also and believe that it is better to secure the capital that you have used as you gamble and just use the profits that you made. In that case, if you win again then you are winning out of nothing but also from the money that you won. And if you lose, then you are just simply giving back the money to casino and lose nothing.
It can only be applicable if you win all the time, when you start your gambling session you should expect that you win then you take out your capital and go on with the profit already. I think it will not happen all the time and no gambler can ever do that even the professional gamblers.

well you can never know these things about gambling or anything that is luck based for that matter. but in my opinion things are a lot different in different games. for example if you win a big amount like the jackpot in a luck based game then it is better if you withdraw.
but in games that are mostly skill based i think it can be better if you keep the profit (since it wouldn't be huge anyways) on there and continue betting with it.
That can be done if you have satisfaction or you have goal in gambling, it's actually easy to say that but when you are in the situation where you feel you are so lucky, you might not recognize the word stop. Most gamblers are greedy, though we have won we still want for more. Having said that, our only way to win in gambling is when we have a specific plan and we will be able to execute it properly.
9863  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your best luck and worst luck gambling experience? on: January 04, 2017, 07:41:00 AM
When I hit 9900x after three rolls at a new seed is my best luck so far. And nowadays, whenever I changed my seed, I will use the first 3 rolls for 9900x hunt. And the worst part is when I had more than 100k reds while hunting 9900x and due to the system maintenance, I had to change my seed before I hit 9900x.
You are lucky enough already, I wanted to have such kind of wins like yours. I think brother you will not be able to repeat your luck at 9900x, it can only happen once in our life IMO.

I have already accepted that I will not be lucky enough with dice, as of the today, I am already down BTC2 and I need to turn things around in favor of me. With that, I have to try different gambling games and I am trying my luck in sports now.

That's the spirit, there are a lot of games to see and your journey must not end in one night. I hope you will bounce back tomorrow mate. Let me suggest, maybe you put some explanation on how you come up with your bet/s, it will be more fun and it will help others to be convinced, just saying..
9865  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: So should I make this bet with 1 bitcoin? on: January 04, 2017, 07:09:59 AM
Too bad mate, you have no patience over your winnings. What made you think that they will not release the funds, they are just taking extra precaution as the amount you have won is a big amount. They will certainly not gonna destroy their name with just BTC1. Next time, always impose patience, you hit it once and I am pretty sure you are gonna hit it again.
9866  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: gambling trading or giveaway? on: January 02, 2017, 10:16:43 AM
I prefer to do all of the options. So, if I have enough time to join some giveaways then I will do it and whenever I already claim the reward. That's the right time that I am going to first choose to trade it. And after getting some good profit in trading, that's the right time when I am going to have some fun by getting small portion of it and gamble.
I too usually will go with both two options, to me I like trading and mostly I earn money from trading as I have also good experience in  trading, but I also like gambling and cannot stop gambling ever, although I invest little money in gambling but still I like to play gambling.
i will also go with both options although i have no such experience in gambling but as gambling is mostly depending on your luck therefore i some time i like to test my luck and play gambling but with little money.

Hahha, you are someone who is silly and not knowing that gambling depends entirely on how you do it and it is not completely dependent on luck, if indeed you already have experience in gambling so I doubt it is friends!!!. For if you already have experience and will certainly not thinking that the main thing is luck in gambling. If you want to get an advantage then you must focus and should be able to control yourself
 
Even though there are gambling games that requires experience and analysis but most of them does still purely depend on luck because no matter how good you are if luck isnt on your side you will still lose.Controlling yourself is an important thing on.I will definitely choose up trading against those two options because potential profits in trading is more than on gambling and giveaways.
yes that is a fact that gambling mostly depending on your luck, if you are lucky then you will make good money and if you are not luck then you will lose your own money in gambling, but in trading you can use your  mind also therefore i  will always recommend trading and not gambling.
We need luck but we need hard work to succeed than rely on luck alone. Gambling is not the best solution if you aiming for greater income, there's always a better job or investment that could give you consistent income like trading or doing an online job. However, since the topic let me choose among the three, I would choose the most popular way of making money which is trading. With it, you can grow your skills along the way, unlike gambling where the longer you play the more your skills deteriorated.
9867  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: January 02, 2017, 10:01:23 AM
I don't know why but I always get a feeling to gamble, after then losing my money, I quit for some time and then continue, but I know I will lose my btc Sad

Why is it so addictive?
yes my feel too , i think gambling was created with in addictive
and addictive is a sign that gambling ..
interest in gambling is the beginning of addiction. Well, I guess it's fair goes back to play, even though you know that the money you use to gamble it will run out. Well, almost everyone who gamble like that. I guess it is the effect of gambling, and it does have a sense of enormous interest to try again.
No I do not think so. I am very interested in gambling but I have never get addicted to it since I joined the gambling industry in 2015. I know that gambling is just a type of entertainment so I rarely think that I can have a decent amount of money there. Even though you may win some games, the house will know the way to retaliate and take back the winning money
I think you are the most lucky person who is not addicted to gambling, there may be very little number of people who can claim that they are not addicted to gambling and they can stop gambling any time they want, as most of the people who are playing gambling on regular bases are mostly addicted to gambling.
Yes if someone can control to stopping gambling anytime they want surely they are not addicted but im a little bit not trust about it due I have try to control my self when gamble but mostly failed.

That means you are addicted to gambling. Because if you're not addicted you certainly can stop anytime you want, it is as easy to talk, but it is a fact and not just talk. Because it is in this world a lot of gamblers who easily quit whenever they want. If you're not addicted, you also must be easy to stop anytime you want. Self-control is going to be difficult if you're already addicted, it's normal.
Sometimes we think we can easily stop prior to actual gambling but the real battle is when we are playing already especially when we are down with  big loses, that time is a hard time for us and only few can stop and keep the remaining smaller portion of our bankroll to end our day.

That is what you called, easier said than done, every gambler can testify that as we have certainly experience it.
9868  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What gambling method are you using for Dice? on: January 02, 2017, 05:26:12 AM
I just started using a pre-configured bot for most strategies out there and it seems to work on most well known crypto dice sites

Hmm, a great advantage for you friends!! . And do you now can get the bot ..?? , And whether it could be used by everyone..?? . But I hope that the bot does not contain a loss for those who use it, my point is not in the content with a keylogger. If that is the case then you will get a great loss, because there are several players who could track someone from anywhere. "so, do your best and hopefully you get a good profit in gambling

A method to exploit the dice sites has not been found nor created, we live in the world where we are just gambling on a chance not favored to use. Only when we are lucky will we win, hence, in connection to that, any method you find will just be a fantasy as that will not bring your long term success.
9869  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin IS basically DESTROYED on: January 02, 2017, 04:35:19 AM
Why would they do anything detrimental to Bitcoin? It would hurt them more than anyone financially.
Because they as a society, are greedy. Being blinded by this fact, they do not see this as a mindless act that will backfire on them.
Satoshi thought of this in his creation of bitcoin. Keeping it decentralized was his plan all along people tend to forget this.
The creation of satoshi was awesome because until now we are still using it. Before I came in the crypto world, I was thinking of a way to invest but ever since I am already a fan or unique ideas and it's just timely I was able to find bitcoin and until now I am enjoying my stay here.

I think I will be here for long, as bitcoin is very successful now, I cannot let this opportunity to just slip away in my life.
9870  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Should Bitcoin even have a future? on: January 02, 2017, 04:24:47 AM
Yes I think bitcoin has future as everybody nowadays prefer everything online

Of course it does have a future at all everything that has been helpful and good to all of us deserves it. It is now a well-known internet currency and no doubt that its popularity will keep on increasing and it can be known for the next few years, even though we are still few in this society I know that one day bitcoin will be used by many countries and users.
That's a great vision and hopefully we can see that one day, not for us but for the next generation. It's a long process but with continuous growth of bitcoin, we can achieve it someday. Just never lost faith with bitcoin even in times it will experience crisis as strong currency as bitcoin will vow to rise after every trials.
9871  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: January 02, 2017, 04:17:07 AM
MVP race is harder now. Westbrook still has better chance because his triple double average but Harden is close 2nd. No other player should mention in this MVP race. They can't reach these 2's numbers.

i agree with you, but i am pretty sure, none of them willnot play NBA finals, i thing final will be GSW vs CLE once again. these two teems are the best nowadays in NBA
Comparing two teams between the rockets and the Thunder to enter into finals, I see more light with the Rockets. They are playing a new system now under a new coach and it has been working as we have witnessed with their very impressive record, and if I am not mistaken, it's the best season for Harden so far, Westbrook maybe has a little advantage in terms of athleticism but harden has greater basketball IQ.

If talking about these two teams entering into finals, it is possible to them and they have the chance to make it up to semi-finals and as well as finals.
But I will also go with Rockets, even though Westbrook has been showing us good performance with his team but still that is not enough to make it to the finals, I admire more Harden on how he plays wisely.
Harden has been playing smart with his ability to draw as many fouls in a game, but this time is a challenge for him and his teammate has really help him a lot as well. Way back when he was still in Oklahoma Thunder playing with westbrook and Durant, it was only his first time to enter in the NBA Finals and now the 3 have separate ways, they will be proving who will make it to the finals against the east champ.
9872  Economy / Economics / Re: Best way for steady income on: January 01, 2017, 11:24:22 AM
I think we must have real business for steady income, I ever work but the salary is very small and not enough for the needs of every month. But with small business I can grow up and bigger than job.
So you mean bitcoin is not good for steady income and can't give steady income to us? I don't think so. we can start a small business with bitcoin also. we can start a small website. a small digital shop or trading and exchange business for bitcoin.
even I think bitcoin have more chances to make steady income if we follow the right ways.
in the world of bitcoin i think the only study way of making bitcoin is a signature campaign, a signature campaign can only give you a steady income otherwise there is no other way of steady income.
bitcoin might be in the world, the only chance that you can get a steady income is a way to follow the signature campaign, well, I could not agree with it. but, we do not know how long it will continue, because according to my experience, until now very much a signature campaign that has been stopped. it will not give you a steady income forever.
You're right. It may give you temporarily consistent earning but that's only as far as when the campaign is active. Then you look for another campaign to join. So it's really not a good idea to rely on signature campaigns although it's good while it lasts. Bitcoin is a good way of earning money on the side but not as a bread and butter type source of income, especially if you have a family to support. Having a regular job or running a business is still more secure.
Think big, do not limit your imagination, doing signature campaign as your way of earning money is good but not too good. You can actually access a lot of opportunity that is bigger than you can imagine, people got rich in bitcoin not because they are playing safe but because they take risk and doing investing rather than working is always a better way to maximize your income.
9873  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you consider trading as gambling? on: January 01, 2017, 02:47:07 AM
Trading can't really be considered gambling.
Coin trading is an investment which is meant to earn from.
Gambling is entertainment and you should just assume you're going to lose.

but not everyone lose in gambling, there are so many experienced people who are earning a good money from gambling on regular bases, they are too much professional and experience people. they know all the tricks in gambling that can lead you to success.

It is all our imagination that many people are winning money from gambling but in reality, you don't see so many winners in gambling. Gambling is not made to make money instead it is just to enjoy your free time with small amounts. Don't waste your time and money to make easy money from gambling.
Winning in gambling is very hard but having fun is the best way to do with our money, we can lose yet it's nothing to us because we were able to have fun and get the value of our money. If we feel that we do not have a good chance of winning based on our record, it's advisable to accept it early so as not to aggravate our loses. When you are having fun, you do not think of your loses as you can afford what you have spent.

9875  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: how to start trading with a very small amount on: December 31, 2016, 02:04:36 AM
Trading with a very small amount only useful for a set of trading experience

Experience in trading is a general thing and doesn't really apply on a certain amount of money that you can afford to trade with. Regarding small amounts, other than people not really having much to trade with, or that they are just testing out how trading is, I don't really see the added benefit of such a thing. That applies to trading Bitcoin. With altcoins it's of course a different thing since certain altcoins can just explode in value where you gain like 100-500 in a matter of a month. But that's not really something I consider to be trading. It has more similarities with gambling as you purely depend on luck.
yes that is a fact but mostly when we start using bitcoin for trading as a new we cannot put  a big amount in trading, and the only reason is that we have no experience and there is greater chance of loosing money. therefore putting small amount in trading for getting experience is good idea.
i think there are so many people who have shortage of money, and they cannot afford to invest a big amount therefor for such people investment in alt coin is the best option, they can really make good money there even investing a  small amount.
If you have only a small amount of money, just do not bother to invest as it would not give you a decent income. The topic only ask how to start trading with a very small amount which I believe it's easy when done in the crypto world, there are trading sites that accept for as low as BTC0.001 to start trading and it's a good start for anyone who want to practice using real money.
9876  Economy / Economics / Re: Why You Should Never Sell Your Bitcoins Ever on: December 31, 2016, 01:49:12 AM
No i dont think that bitcoin will not be that much useful in india .as bitcoins coming to india s a long way to go and even if it comes ,if people start to adopt it they will be questioning and many people will not understand also no matter the transaction fees be less.
The thing is bitcoin is an international currency and investment as well, it is not only useful in one country as it could be useful to all country who likes to adopt, we do not involve the government here as bitcoin is not regulated and we can use it anytime and anywhere we want as long as we have the internet connection online.

When fiat slowly loses it's value, it's always a wise decision to invest into bitcoin, its risky but if you can manage it you will be able to fight inflation.
9877  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin has no competition on: December 30, 2016, 02:55:08 AM
bitcoin has a lot competitions: those from altcoins, though now they are all small, and those using blockchain technologies..

Where is the competition with alt coins?  Any altcoin which is yet really competing with BTC?  Sure some use alternate algorithms and some of them are really promising.  But I still don't see a real competition.

//alex

You will see it after a lot of the financial institutions are using hyperledger, soon.  A lot of the thing with getting sync with hyper and totally the serious competitor for bitcoin has come.  Just a problem of times.

Altcoin like a small fruit below of the big tree.
People are adopting with bitcoin not because of it's system where transactions can be track easily online but more on the decentralized factor of the system, as it is decentralized, we have the full confidence to do online transaction whatever we want as we are comfortable with whatever we do, may it be illegal or not, our money will not be freeze like the government normally does.
9878  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto trading or gambling on: December 30, 2016, 02:47:34 AM
Well, if i comparison between gambling and crypto trading, than i will choose both things. Because i am also doing both things, but which is better for me, You know sometime gambling is useful way for me. Because whenever i need money in a short time than i play it, and many time gambling help me. But crypto trading  is also profitable way, but in it, we know that every step, we are not depending on luck. Because we know when price increased when we sell our crypto than don't take tension, but only need patient.
This days I will say no to crypto trading and yes to gambling cos I made a trading acouple of months back and still not profitable. But will gamble/sport bet I make quick and easy money.

Trading is always better than gambling, because with gambling one could easily earn in a short time but as quoted by above mate it won't happen in every event. With trading based upon price variation to certain extent loss can be reduced, which is not possible with gambling. Gambling is similar to do or die situation.
The long term success can only be achieve in trading, in gambling you will win but that is just a temporary thing as the gambling operators will always have a long term success. For serious investors, trading is always a greater choice and gambling will always be a pure entertainment.

December 29 NBA Betting Tips
My Picks

Miami Heat vs Charlotte Hornets - Over 204
Oklahoma City Thunder vs Memphis Grizzlies - Over 199
Boston Celtics vs Cleveland Cavaliers - Over 216
Philadelphia 76ers vs Utah Jazz - 76ers +14.5
Toronto Raptors vs Phoenix Suns - Under 224
Dallas Mavericks vs Los Angeles Lakers - will post when my bookie post odds.
This one seems to be nice to follow as everything that you shared really have its edge to win you really amazing with those picks mate i will bet on it one by one lets get some earnings from the house mate good luck to those that will follow this tips.
Seems like a good picks, but I am no following any of the picks, I have a feeling that only one game gives value to me, and that is the Memphis Grizzlies to win over the Thunder. Westbrook and his team has a winning streak, but this one played at home of Memphis is in a different level.

If Memphis win this game, the under will hit. Final bet (Memphis -2.5 and under 199).
You got it right tonight mate, Memphis are leading double digits at the half and it looks like they are gonna win. I just wish you put a bigger amount of money with one bet of yours, so you will be able to bag great income tonight. Game is not over yet but I see a bright future of your bet. lol
9880  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Would you gamble your (or your child's) school fund? on: December 29, 2016, 06:23:11 AM
Well, I would say that I did this back in 2014. My mother already deposited all the money I need to pay for school for the year and also some allowance for my daily needs. I gambled around half of it on NBA odds. I lost that half. So I lived on really cheap food and really avoided buying anything. I even tried to avoid buying things I need like books just to save money. Was a gruesome year for me, luckily I got through. Wouldn't do that again.

How bout you guys, would you do it?

You know, a lot of college student have done that with varying degrees of success and failure.  It's not really a good idea to take this route at such an early stage in one's educational development because the skills to become a successful gambler have not been attained for most at this stage.  Get a degree in mathematics or engineering, then try your hand at gambling on a professional level.

This is not new you can hear lot of stories more then this interesting about how they started to play gambling and then lost everything after that they are realizing the mistake they have done it. That is why it is told that play with what if you lose should not affect your and your family life.
It's clearly a sign of being irresponsible person, everyone has its own story in their worst experience in gambling and I believe it's one of the worst mistake that a gambler has ever did, you cannot gamble the future of your kids, without the funds they cannot continue with their studies and it has been said many times that education is very important and that's the only thing that cannot be stolen from us.
