It surely applies surely, but the official there makes sure that things don't get out of hand. You can also relocate that by funding your account only with the amount you're ready to lose and discipline yourself not to fund more than once, but quit when your deposit gets exhausted. It's always good to normalize running away after a good win so you don't lose it back to the casino.

I've done this before for a bossom friend and guess what? We almost fought in the casino and everyone present began looking at me as the bad person and were asking me to leave him alone. We could only leave the physical casino with some very good profit because I collected his big win myself and seized it, so the next time his balances were low I had the opportunity to drag him outside and we headed home while cursing ourselves on the way. He gave me a tip from the money and thanked me for saving him the following day.

Maybe you missed the point, I was not talking about switching casinos, I was referring to a more logical aspect of being on a casino. Switching intentions, more like before engaging in a casino, you had in mind to gamble for fun and in the end you found yourself chasing profits. What are the reasons for such shift in intention while in the casino and how do we maintain our primary motives without diverting to another intention while on the casino

For some of us this might be a moment of reflection...

Many of us gamblers comes into the casino with different intentions, some visits for relaxation and fun, others for quick profits and others as a source of income(professional gambling).

We've seen some people who claimed to come gamble for fun and during the course of having fun they switched their intention from having fun to chasing profits.

We've also learned of those who came to chase little profits and things didn't go their way and they switch intention from chasing little profits to trying to recover their losses.

Some would say the desire to get more casino bonus enticed them and made them spend more time  on the casino.

The list can keep going on....

My question is what do you think are the reasons people who come to the casino with an earlier intention have a switch to a different one? maybe as it's applicable to you and how well did it end for you?

Finally, what would you propose as a solution to help weak-willed gamblers maintain their motive on the casino without deviating situationally?

Knowing tricks involved in poker and other mental games comes out of experience. That's why I mentioned in the OP that in comparison to normal physical sports, you engage in it consistently and train your mind and overtime your experiences increases and you'll be able to play with much awareness of the crafts and tricks associated with these mind games so as to be able to use them to your own advantage.

I don't fancy gambling with anything that is not immediately expendable like my budgeted money or food. I can remember gambling my ration of food away and laughed over it when I lost and settled for junks while I awaited the next meal. Gambling with valuables like house, cars and even valuable home properties is a bit abnormal to me because losing it would mean trouble for me. In such a scenario I'll not be thinking of what I'll gain if I won but the impact on me if I lost them.

Women gambling isn't a new thing, I've worked for a lady that is a gambling addict and she gambles very well, even more than men. One thing I've noticed about gambling women is that they're always very conservative and secretive with their grabbling activities unlike men. When a woman gambles very openly among men, then the possibility that she's addicted is high.

Culturally, women aren't much at leverage to gamble unlike men. My culture expects modesty from them and see any female gambler as though they're doing something wrong. But do they still gamble even as the culture here tends to limit them?, yes they do.

Good point, for quite sometime now this has been the case, swinging around 115k -116k and recently touching 117k cannot be considered a surge. It needs to go above 120k before we can say comfortably that there's an a upward price correction and if it moves above $124k, then we're on our way to a new ATH. It has not really reacted positively to the Fed cuts, at least not as at now.

Barcelona didn't defeat Newcastle easily. It was tight, with a goal less first half and Marcus Rashford scoring a brace in the second half which one was was responded by A. Gordon. Barcelona was the better side actually but they knew they had a challenge in England from Newcastle. The match ended with Barcelona narrowly securing the 3 points done it ended 1:2 in favor of Barcelona.

It's understandable that you didn't watch for your saying that Barcelona won easily. Marcus Rashford showed his masterclasses in that game and stepped up to fill the void created by Yamal's absence due to groin injury. Barca was the better side but they invested lots of energy proving it yesterday.

Social media is a lesser of evil compared to the influence of peers. Most of us learned gambling from our friends and most of us got hooked up into it when we witnessed friends secure a tangible win and the worst magnet being when we received a tip from the wins. A practical example being my friend who detested gambling but after I won a huge amount and tipped him, I had to even advise him to take it easy when it was obvious he was on turbo boost in gambling

Your views are fine, I would also like to point out to you that sports betting isn't just done entirely out of guess work. I understand some people are lazy to put in the work and give it carefree predictions, but real sports bettors take good time analyzing the games, researching about team and players form, even down to the formation to be played by the coach to see the possibility of an outcome compared with the data from the opposing team and after careful analysis comes a selection. I invest lots of mental energy to book a game and I surely consider it a form of mental sport.

Manchester United VS Chelsea is one very strong game that we'll see this weekend, even though Manchester United is in poor form, whenever they're about to play against Chelsea, they pick up form from nowhere and compete fiercely with Chelsea, same as the latter.

The viewing centers would be full to the brim and there would be display of characters from the fans. Such a match I wouldn't miss for anything.

When it comes to form, I think Chelsea is in better form, Manchester United is playing from home, so they would enjoy home advantage. The match would be tough but I've placed my stakes on Chelsea to win on a single bet. What a nice time to support my club in the bookies .

I've not really been very lucky with casino bonuses. I get them but the casino takes them back even before I try meeting any requirements. I kind of started thinking that the bonuses don't work in my favor because when I've a normal deposit sometimes I win and get to withdraw it.

I think the bonus requirements is a bit of a edge for the casino not to lose those bonus funds easily and a trap for you the gambler to spend more time on the casino. In the end you'll deposit your own funds and continue gambling.

What do you mean be backbone structure?

Bitcoin protocol is decentralized and the action of miners doesn't in any way alter the protocol. Miners only work is to confirm transactions into a block and store in the Bitcoin Blockchain thereby securing the network. Miners maintain the integrity of the Bitcoin Blockchain.

The hash power you mentioned is used in finding newer blocks, miners with more hash power can find the valid hash that would be used in confirming a block of transactions faster than those with lower hash power.

Bitcoin decentralization is at the protocol level and  miners actions are still decentralized too since there's not only one set of miners operating even in the US with the highest hash power.

You do not need fundamental knowledge to get invested into Bitcoin, the basic knowledge is enough. You can acquire more advanced knowledge as you progress into your accumulation journey. You might not be able to get all the fundamental knowledge as soon as you think and If you continue to wait to grasp it all, then you'll spend a lot of time learning and trying to master the theoretical aspect of Bitcoin and which you should've used to get practical and get some good stash of Bitcoin for yourself.

 Worse case scenario you can end up as a spectator and not actually buying Bitcoin since you may never agree to have learned enough.

As long as you understand the basics and you're sure of having discretionary income. The best thing to do is to j get started, buy and plan to follow up your accumulation of Bitcoin with a long-term holding period.

No one gets into Bitcoin having everything figured out, you keep learning and advancing on your understanding of Bitcoin on the go and it's better you spend time learning about it in the market than outside of it.

To help me remain productive and emotionally stable, I try not to cash out my games. I can reference on the results when the matches are over, even though I'm watching it myself, unless the cash out option is very tangible and well above my staking power, I'm not interested.

In your case, the cash out option was as good as losing everything. If it was me, I'll not bother since I've lost everything already. Cash out options most times are traps which when you fall for cheaply, then the bookmarker gets your advantage.

The happiness that you brought to the little boy is your Jackpot . Both of you ended up having fun although with different intentions. Such are the plights of a big uncle. I didn't think I've had such experience with children since I'm always very conservative around them.

Mine would be when I saw a free game from a Facebook fixed match seller back then. I placed it and started fasting and praying for it because I was under serious financial pressure. Lucky me the bet won, but I'm always laughing at myself anytime I remember that demonstration of faith for gambling purposes

One thing that I've seen to be a norm in Nigeria is that there's no enforced road law and anything goes. The FRSC you're referring to have lost its bearing and settled only for checking overload and holding Keke with passenger at front as their only duties on the road since it brings quick money, they've seen their presence on the road as a hustle rather than a call to preserving traffic laws and enforcing compliance. If FRSC was fully operational and under a sane government, there would be nothing like VIO because their work is still very much obtainable by FRSC.

Lump sum and front load are the same thing. They're all about buying more quantities of Bitcoin once and it's achievable as long as an investor has a large discretionary income at their disposal. Some investors might lump sum and arrive at their accumulation target immediately or even get to over accumulation phase.  They can now continue holding on a long-term plan to get good profits out of their investment. Alternatively, as their holding period progresses, they may yet see the desire to increase their portfolio size and they keep on adding to it to increase their profitability potentials.

Most times it's isn't about the job, but the level of discretionary income coming from it. If you've a good discretionary income coming from your job, then you're fine and you can attempt achieving financial independence by going long-term investing into Bitcoin. Setting up a business isn't bad at all but selling your Bitcoin or stopping your regular buys for it is bad, you can still save up for it alongside your accumulating Bitcoin. The good thing about having a successful business alongside accumulating Bitcoin is that it can help you hold for longer. Jobs may not be guaranteed and if you've your own business that's successful, it serves as a major backup in the case of job loss and also double cast as a source of increased discretionary income to invest into Bitcoin in the long-run. The most important thing is to ensure that developing your business doesn't interfere with your consistency in accumulating Bitcoin.

I didn't know if it's only about me but Chelsea really disappointed me today with their performance in Munich. The players lost real confidence and allowed themselves to be bullied easily by Bayern players. Bayern were only able to score one clean goal there which is the penalty. Other goals were out of pressure mounted on Chelsea team with the most painful for me being the assist Gusto made for Kane. I wonder why Maresca left J. Pedro in the match despite seeing that he was worn out from even first half. Congratulations to Bayern, they were really the better side today. 3-1 is really a big advantage for Bayern when they come over to Stamford bridge
