1  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling addiction mainly due to loneliness and dissatisfaction? on: July 26, 2018, 09:21:37 PM
It is sometimes because of that, it mostly happens if you don't get enough satisfaction from your partner or you don't have a good connection with your family so people feel depressed and they end up gambling as they win for a while but as they start losing they keep getting addicted to gambling
2  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does this sound realistic? on: July 25, 2018, 09:06:38 PM
This isn't the worst theory imo, the biggest misconception is gambling isn't and will never be a source of entertainment. I did understand your theory and it might make sense but the problem with most people is they spend a lot on this so called entertainment. A movie ticket might cost maximum of 30$ but for many gamblers they want to turn 30$ to 3000$ which is why they get addicted easily

I can't completely disagree to what you said. However, a lot of people take gambling as a form of entertainment. Entertainment is subjective in nature. Hiring a hooker is also an entertainment to many. People spend money on that to get something in return that relaxes themselves. Similarly gambling relaxes a lot of people and they do it to get something in return. Probably you prefer to spend on movies to relax yourself. Some other people prefers gambling. Addiction here is completely self inflicted.
I mean watching movie or something does give you a sort of break for few hours, even though the movie might be shit you get to rest for some time but in gambling i feel that if you are trying to relax and reduce stress then it's a bad idea because if you lose your stress levels will rise further

If we lose our mental balance and do not appreciate the laws of the game, we are not going to have a good time... we win we lose some, its all a part of the game... gambling should never be considered as profession or anything like that.. it is purely for entertainment...shit happens when we take loses and then try to hunt it back by betting more and then losing more..
That is my point too. Why someone even think about this to make gambling as source of income. But it is really sad to say there is a big list of gamblers who are only coming into casinos just to test their luck again and again that how can they make some point where they would be able to earn through gambling. This is really not wise strategy. Try to find out solution for this.
Completely agree with you i have also seen this new trend on most gambling sites people return to the site daily spend 100$ and say they were just testing their luck and the money they lost doesn't affect them but after a month you see them begging for that 10k satoshi or whatever the reward is given in the chat by the bot
4  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you feel when win in gambling? on: July 25, 2018, 08:08:34 PM
When I beat the casino, my joy is boundless, I squeal like a child.
When you beat a casino.......
Have you ever been able to make any profit from a casino or are you like those kids who drain the faucet of the site and create multiple accounts using some shit vpn and they complaining that the site blocked you
5  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can anyone teach me? on: July 25, 2018, 07:30:31 PM
we can only tell you the rules, but you can learn how to play only yourself.
What are the rules i doubt you even know how to play poker lol
But yes i would somewhat agree with him you don't need to know all the rules but you just need to play a few games online for free first and try to make a few strategies and then play
6  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: how long you can stay without gambling? on: July 25, 2018, 06:53:35 PM
You will not able to stop your self on gambling when you still playing everytime you need, it’s just like you’re in diet but you are craving for Fries and humburgerand you can’t stop you’re self and you end up eating that. In gambling you need self control no matter what happens you need to control your self.
I rather have a fries and hamburger rather than gambling because atleast I'm getting something in return unlike gambling which always take away all my money and only returns me when i invest my funds in house instead of gambling against the house lol
7  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How do whales mainpulate the market? on: July 25, 2018, 05:03:34 PM
I often see the word 'manipulation' in cryptocurrency world. I only have general sense of that, but I have some questions about it. How exactly do these whales do this? Is there a way to spot it? And is there any chance these whales lose money?
There are obviously a chance that they lose their money and for whales it's not like how it for us, they either make millions from manipulation of market or either lose millions if it doesn't go in there way.
What they normally do is buy a coin altogether at a low price and keep buying it from everyone thus causing the demand to rise and price to increase, then they wait for innocent people like us to buy and then sell to us at a higher price

-snip-
Lol man you seriously made me laugh today, you mentioned that ccn won't do some fake review just for some few extra cash. Well looks like all you did is copy paste some bullshit about your site, if you read the end of articles i saw this line

This is a sponsored story

Just a heads up all the articles you posted is a sponsored story so basically all that site has done is bought good reviews lol

But seriously thanks for making me laugh today and promoting a scam site or a site which buys good reviews lol
9  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Walk of Shame on: July 25, 2018, 04:13:55 PM
I am not realiy a gambler though sometimes i am beating minimal in some other lottery games. But talking about walk of shame because nothing left in the pocket after the extreme lose is really hard to imagine. I understand that it is not an easy scenario and hopefully it won’t happen to anyone who gamble. Gambling is a choice but hopefully we can manage also our activity and always set the limits first.
You lose all your money in lottery, how dumb are you loterries have such high odds that even if you spend 10000$ you still get like a 10% chance or something which is really less and not worth spending so much.
If you buy a lottery ticket just buy one, most likely you will lose but still atleast you don't lose so much money
10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Binance vs Bittrex on: July 24, 2018, 08:15:16 PM
Both are really good exchanges and doesn't cause much problems to it's users but for me i would prefer binance over bittrex any day because of the withdrawal limit. Bittrex allows only 0.2 bitcoin to be withdrawn per 24 hours and there's a chance they might ask for kyc anytime but for binance they have a 2 bitcoin withdrawal limit whoch is enough for any average person
11  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you feel when win in gambling? on: July 24, 2018, 07:28:09 PM
Feeling relieved is the best possible thing you'll get if you're against bad odds and a big loosing streak.
You know that when you waste more then you can afford to lose and suddently a wild green pops out of nowhere with a HUGE profit Cheesy

You will surely feel relieved especially when you're gambling with money that you just borrowed or you really have some important things to buy or need to pay to.
Borrowing money, you mad regardless weather you get a profit or loss it is always bad to borrow money from someone for gambling as you never really know the outcome, if you fail to win your rolls you will just end up in a huge debt. It's always better to gamble with your own funds
Lol, don't ever do that borrowing money just to gamble. That's the reason why poor people are always poor even do how risk in gambling they continued to gamble. Even if you have your own money still don't gamble IMO if you don't have extra money that you can afford to lose.
For me, gambling is not just a kind of source of income, it is an entertainment for us when we got bored and have some relaxation.
Well another idiot could you please explain me how does losing your own money gives you some sort of satisfaction and entertainment.
I would agree that's one reason why many people become poor as they keep taking loans to make profit but always the opposite is happening which sucks
12  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Dominance on: July 24, 2018, 07:06:56 PM
This might be a trap by McAfee, if you see his twitter he was hinting that bitcoin rise is coming i have a feeling he is behind this pump and wants people to join it so he can make more money for himself.
This might just be a theory but we have seen in past whales doing something like this to make profits for themselves
13  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The pump and dump tactic on: July 24, 2018, 05:42:03 PM
It is happening again but this time only bitcoin is getting pumped, if this pumping continues then there is definitely a chance for altcoins to also get pumped really soon. I have already bought several altcoins after today's dump and would recommend you all to do the same as this market doesn't wait for anyone
14  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why gambling is portrayed negatively almost everywhere? on: July 24, 2018, 05:31:50 PM
Gambling is just like smoking or drinking alcohol. The individual who participates in it may lose his money and health. But at the same time, these activities contribute huge amounts of money to the government coffers.
Bullshit government doesn't make shit from most of the gambling activities, only some states in USA has legalised gambling but in majority of the world there are unregulated sites which is one reason why house edge for gambling sites are so low as they don't have to share anything with the government
15  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you look for repeated trends to trade? on: July 24, 2018, 05:04:53 PM
I do that most of the time but sometimes it doesn't go in my favour which happens as this is a market in the end and what majority of the people decide that only happens.
But as the experts say no matter what the trade is or no matter how small the amount is it is always better to set a stop loss as anything can happen
16  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: 🚨Market Update: Breaking out🚨 on: July 24, 2018, 04:37:39 PM
Don't get too exicted this might just be a trap and nothing else, entering the market now would be stupidity but exiting is also not a good thing to do, I'm just waiting for few more days to verify if this is a actual growth or just another pump. I have already set stop loss below resistance level so i don't care what happens now
17  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The way to win in gambling on: July 24, 2018, 04:06:54 PM
I quit the game when I won as much as I wanted, and if more - I quit immediately Smiley
Wait so when do you exactly quit lol, you saying when you win some game you stop gambling but you are also saying if you win more you again quit. So what are you even doing exactly do you set a goal and when you achieve it you quit gambling or play beyond your goal and then quit lol
18  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why I am betting on the Mega Millions Lottery – Jackpot over 500$ Million ! on: July 24, 2018, 03:37:21 PM
The article says that the house edge of this lottery is 50%. Does anyone know if it's the biggest house edge possible?
Yes was gonna point the same thing, the article says 50% goes to government which is surely one reason why anyone shouldn't buy a ticket, they do claim that money will be used for productive purpose such as education but from the current situation i have a feeling that the money will finally end up in military expenditure
19  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are online gambling games fixed? on: July 24, 2018, 03:10:39 PM
They are not fixed unless they don't claim they are provably fair. When they claim that they are provably fair, you can check with the use of provably fair verifiers. There are gambling sites that are not provably fair, I suggest that you stay away from them and there are also sites that claim that they are provably fair but in fact, they are not.

This is a good remark. Indeed there are such sites and that's why we shouldn't take any claims at face value, especially when dealing with newly appeared sites. Fortunately, it's not that hard to verify several bets. And reading reviews also helps, because we can't verify every bet (well, we can do that technically, but that would be hell of a game). Some gambling sites have such a good reputation that it seems unnecessary to verify any bets there at all, but of course you can do it from time to time, just in case.
Lol well looks like you are not aware about the site you are promoting, it also doesn't have a probably fair mark and it also makes several fake claims.

So are you suggesting us to avoid that site because of all the fake claims it is making and also claiming to he a registered casino but at the end has a fake license
20  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are online gambling games fixed? on: July 23, 2018, 06:49:55 PM
As many suggested you need to look for probably fair mark on a site as that allows you to verify the hash of your roll and tells you if the site knew about the result or not.
Well currently most famous casinos like fortunejack doesn't have a probably fair mark and they also have a fake license so i would suggest to stay away from online casinos
