I, like many people, used to play chess and I think this game is very good, but personally I am not interested in betting on chess tournaments as well as watching other people play. In my opinion it is much more interesting to play chess yourself, but only if the game was not online (without the ability to use artificial intelligence).

What other factors do you know contribute to form addictive gambling?
In the end, it all comes to how the gambler can control himself. The first time I read the whole post of OP, I laughed a bit just because on how he brings up that "free alcoholic drink" as the reason why he lost too much money. At first place, he can just ignore or not to get those free drinks if he really doesn't want to, right? If he didn't try those alcoholic drinks, will he lose his money? I don't think so unless that man is really addicted to the point that it doesn't need alcoholic drinks just to empty his wallet. Overall, self-control really is a very important trait especially when you are gambling. Knowing when to continue and when to stop is a big thing. Not having a self-control and discipline will lead to these kinds of things. Wallet getting empty, savings being gone because of gambling etc. Now with regards to other factors that can contribute to addictive gambling, I believe peer pressure is one. What peer pressure are you talking about? Each of us chooses our own path. You wouldn't jump off a roof if your peers did, would you? I'm sure that no, because you have your own head on your shoulders and you are well aware of what it will lead to. But why is it that when peers are into gambling and invite you to join, you think it's pressure? Each of us can refuse any offer, like free alcohol in a casino. |

I have never bought predictions from tipsters as following someone else's opinion in sports betting is a road to nowhere. In my opinion if someone wants to succeed in something he should study this field by himself. On this forum, as well as on the Internet there are people who share their predictions. If you don't want to make analyses by yourself, you can look through their prognoses absolutely free.
And in my opinion it is the last thing, to resell tipsters' predictions. I would definitely not buy forecasts from such people.

About the free booze, I totally agree with you. If a person can't control himself after drinking a few beers or any other alcoholic beverage, then he'd better stay away from alcohol. Gambling for money implies a clear mind and somehow alcoholic intoxication doesn't go well with that. This guy in the story had it coming - he got drunk and lost his money. No one dragged him into a casino by the hand and forced him to drink alcohol. |

What other factors do you know contribute to form addictive gambling?
A casino with very Beautiful ladies as staffs or where beautiful women come to meet chill or meet men who can spend on them will definitely be of interest to men and they will spend more time in these casino's gambling than they would spend in other casinos. I personally will pick and spend more time in a casino with beautiful women than a casino with just unattractive faces. This can be a weird reason, but it can contribute to form addictive gambling. I absolutely agree with you. Beautiful women have long been part of a successful marketing strategy, not only in casinos, but also in other venues and events. Statistically, male audiences are more likely to visit casinos and betting shops, so yes, beautiful women can not only attract but also retain male customers. Personally, I would love to spend time with friends in a casino where the staff is mostly composed of beautiful girls, because it's very difficult to resist natural instincts. |

In my opinion, the sound of falling coins during winning plays a very important role not only in land-based casinos, but also in online casinos. This sound together with the release of endorphin acts as a bell in Pavlov's experiment with dogs and it seems to me that this is very strongly attracts gamblers to slots.
As soon as this sound is heard in the gambling hall, everyone stops and looks for the lucky gambler with their eyes. I think personally I can never forget that sound.

In your opinion, how long is the period of inactivity of the account for the casino to increase the rate of return? I do not play slots every day, and prefer to play once or twice a month, spending about $100 per game session (unless of course I increase the deposit by 50-100%), so I have no way to compare whether the payout ratio changes and I think it all depends on luck rather than account activity, but I could be wrong. It will be interesting to see your experiment in the long run. |

In all my life I have only met two people who made money from betting on sports. One had it as his main income for several years, and the other had an official job, but in between he was looking for a good bet. Both of them, according to them, had a good income, but they didn't do without losses either.
In fact, there are a lot of established bookmakers on this forum who have their own threads here. So it's not that hard to find a bookmaker on your own.

Для валидаторов, которые получают стейк от фонда необходимо держать одну ноду в основной сети и одну в тестовой. Сейчас действительно большинство валидаторов держат ноды в минус. Полагаю, что те, кто заходили в самом начале и продавали Sol на хаях имеют достаточно денег чтобы продержаться это медвежку. Конечно как и везде в Solana держат и домашние ноды (не везде провайдер может предоставить канал в 500Мб/с и позволить жрать столько трафика, сколько ест Solana.
Но это если соль не пойдет по стопам еос и прочих убийц эфира, что уже стало именем нарицательным  А шансы на это немалые... Да все с Solana будет нормально. Alameda Reserch инвестировала средства во многие проекты. В Matic (Polygon) она инвестировала чуть ли не в два раза больше, но фада по этому поводу вообще нигде не встречал. Все это целенаправленный фад на Solana, который в итоге сделает сеть и сообщество только сильнее. Solana очень далека от EOS. ~ А стейк от фондов большой? Какая там хоть доходность
Около 62k Sol, у старичков еще есть стейк от Alameda (18k-19k), который застейкан частями и срок его окончания вплоть до 2028 года. Как я понимаю доходность сейчас отрицательная, если сервер аредуется. На домашних серверах валидаторы могут продержаться еще очень долго, к тому же в любом проекте есть валидаторы, которые топят за идею или имеют свой собственный стейк и едут на нем. |

You can do more than gamble there you know, you can also make money on their tokens.
So are we talking about the casino which has its own tokens like Fun token or Owl token? Well, if this is the subject then I must say that these casinos have an added advantage as you can invest in these casinos and have an opportunity to earn passive income by just holding them. As the casino grows, the prices of these token will rise too and hence gamblers can earn money only by holding the gambling site token. What other advantage? You're investing your money at risk, so I wouldn't call it an advantage because you might as well invest it in more reliable investment assets. Many gamblers visit casinos just to get a shot of the happiness hormone. And in my opinion these people are the majority. |

1.This might be fake news. 2.If this news is actually true, then SBF is an idiot. So many people in the crypto world praised Bankman-Fried as some kind of genius. It seems like SBF is the complete opposite of a genius. We can't predict what is happening in a desperate person's mind. Some people start acting totally dumb and irrational, when they lose control over the situation in their lives. SBF could've pumped &dumped some dead shitcoin in order to recover some of the losses. FTX/Alameda had enough money to do such thing. The profits would have been way bigger. I know it's unethical and probably illegal, but doing such thing is way smarter than wasting millions of dollars on gambling. He is facing a huge prison sentence, and even if he knew that before he was arrested, gambling that much money is just crazy. I'm sure he knows how to do the math and knows that the casino has an advantage over the player. I'm still more inclined that he is not a gambler, but just a man who was lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time, and he lost everything simply because of greed and his not very clever scheme to get unsecured credit. |

to be honest, i will take the bet because i can get many times what i bet,, and for that bet i will put 10% of my income, it is quite small but i don't want to be too greedy because even though the prize is very big i won't want to take a risk by putting quite a lot of my income on that bet because even if i lose the amount is only 10% of my income and it's not too much and i can let it go
10% of your income to 10% of your bankroll is quite a difference, and for me 10% of income is big enough to bet on one session bet and I probably wouldn't do that. Regarding the Op's question whether to bet like that, I answered that I don't know because for me it was just theory and it would be very different when we did it. In general, people are very gambling creatures by nature and if they see a good offer, they take a risk. I think that if you take into account the condition that the proposed bet can only be made once, many would agree to try their luck. After all, it's not just about the odds and the risks, but also the opportunities. If the opportunity is given only once a gambler obviously will not miss it. I do not know whether it is greed or some other feeling, but it obviously attracts us. |

On this forum interacts with a huge number of people, some leave, some come, so there will always be those who will be sure that using the Martingale strategy can make money.
In my opinion those who understand that this is not the case should explain to such gamblers that they are mistaken in this strategy.
How many strategies have I used, but none of them proved to be good in the long run. You may or may not be lucky, but you should only play for fun.

Basically the man is ready to break their relationship starting when he stole the money he used to bet and not because he just returned the bare minimum and not the demand of his girlfriend. Their relationship won't be fix even if the gambler follows the demand of his girlfriend. The trust between the both of them is ruined and their colors where revealed because of money. This kind of stories can happen in real life that's why I personally don't borrow or use other people money in gambling because money is one of the many reason why people break their trust and relationships.
Well if the man didn't mention the gambling part and simply just returned the money he took, no issue would have happened. Actually he could have added a bit more for interest and she would probably would have been happy about it. The idea that she would ask for way more because she knows what he did with the money doesn't make too much sense to me. That would be like a bank loan turning into a business investment. In a bank loan you have to return the money no matter what, in a business investment you get exposure to the same risk the company goes. They are different things. Do you think that relationships can be built on deception? Personally, I think that people who love each other should trust each other completely and not hide anything from each other. This guy was very lucky to win a lot of money, and he could have lost all of it. None of us know where that would have led. But if the girl had told him that he had stolen money from her, he probably would have ended up in jail. |

Personally, I prefer higher odds to win, but smaller winnings, than low odds but big winnings. In my opinion the lottery game has too negligible a chance of being involved.
A few years ago I stopped buying lottery tickets, although I used to buy them from time to time. There were times when I won, but it was ridiculous money, which barely paid back the tickets I bought.
If we talk about the terms offered by OP, I would not risk more than $100.

In my opinion, an attempt to win back a loss is one of the most common mistakes that admit a gambler at a time when he was overwhelmed with emotion.
Gambling means that the casino has an advantage over the player and the longer you play the more likely you are to lose. If you think that it is so easy to return the money you lost you are very mistaken and you need to reconsider your views on gambling.
In general, you should try to play not to win, and for the pleasure of the game, but some gamblers never come to this understanding.

очередной убийца эфира умирает Да рано вы Solana хоронить собрались. На сегодняшний день технически это один из самых быстрых и недорогих блокчейнов, конкуренты понимают это, поэтому фад и прет со всех щелей. Параллельно с Кучерявым монету укатывают обычные хомяки, но после перераспределения монет история с Сэмом позабудется, как и падения сети из-за спам-транзакций и ликвидность постепенно вернется. |

Like many other gamblers I try to gamble only when I am in a good mood and there is no important business or meetings. During gambling mood can change very sharply so it is better to choose a day when you are completely free. Regardless of whether you win or not, gambling causes a surge of emotions that can lead to the wrong perception of information coming to the brain. As a consequence, this can lead to mistakes, because when you win you become overconfident, and when you lose you feel anger and most often there is a desire to win back.
So if you feel that you are overwhelmed with emotions while gambling, it is better to stop.
