AIs are continuously developing and they can possibly hack systems in the future but I still don't think casinos aren't preparing well for the possibilities that might happen.
Yes, there are successful poker players who rely on AIs but nothing will still defeat human intelligence when it comes to gambling especially in poker because humans are known to be tricky and strategic.
However, AIs were not actually made to destroy casinos because they are also beneficial to us if being used in the right way. They are making tasks easier for us these days but I don't think it will be wise to rely on them even in gambling.
Well, everything in the world has a positive and a negative side, now it depends on us if how we are going to utilize that thing, if we are evil and have bad intentions, we can use a positive thing in a negative way, but if we are good and have good intentions and want to do good things, we can even use a bad thing for a good cause, that is how the world is and that is how it will always be, it is us that make things become bad, not the things.

AI is a very innovative technology and it can be used in very positive ways to greatly assist us in all fields of life, but if we use it for things like hacking, beating casinos, creating evil stuff, it will surely be considered something bad very soon, but if we use it for good, it can prosper and be helpful for the world.

there is always a high wagering requirement, which is not really achieved if you have deposited a minimum amount. You could deposit a higher amount but that does not guarantee you a win through free spin. What it does is that they give you a good chance of winning and also increase your bankroll. If casinos start giving you fewer wagering requirements then they won't be able to survive. The only way you can get a low wagering requirement is by being a VIP account holder or through their loyalty program. Those programs also come with terms and conditions which are not again easy to achieve. I do like cash back offers, which means you get back some of the money you deposited if you do not win. That again depends on the casino in which way they are offering it, that is why it is always crucial to read t&c.
I think everyone knows that there are high wagering requirements for bonuses that you claim with a deposit, but are there also wagering requirements for the bonuses that you get as a weekly or monthly reward for what you've wagered so far? I mean if you are a VIP member and you are given a certain amount of free spins or some money based on your wagers of the month or week, are those bonuses also subject to some requirements?

If that is the case, it's too bad, one shouldn't have to complete a wagering requirement for something they've received for spending their own money, that is too unfair, if one takes a deposit bonus and get a wagering requirement, that is understandable and reasonable, but this isn't.

Seeing other people's game sessions on social media and live streaming is not a good thing for beginners because it can generate curiosity and the desire to win just like what they see.
A great gambler is someone who can be responsible for their actions and choices when gambling, besides that the goal is just to have fun and add experience.
I have seen lots of novice gamblers who have broken down and lost a lot of things because they were too obsessed with game sessions being carried out by other gamblers.
That's right, there are so many beginners who have lost a lot of money because they were too ambitious to earn a lot of money from gambling in a short time. Even though that's not what they see and they need prior knowledge about the gambling they are betting on so they can understand the risks they get if they use too many bets. On the other hand, this action actually makes them run out of money if they feel they are losing continuously and that can interfere with the brain's performance to become chaotic if they cannot control themselves.
A lot of newbies or beginners have that kind of mindset because they watch influencers stream their gambling activities and they see that they are winning significantly high amounts from gambling with pretty high bankrolls, so they start thinking that they might be able to do it as well if they have a pretty high bankroll, with that thought, some start gambling if they have money, some even gamble by taking loans thinking they will repay it once they win something big.

Taking loans for gambling is one of the biggest mistakes one can make in their life, you can never repay a loan that you take for gambling because there is no guarantee of you winning something significant enough to do that, one shouldn't take loans unless they know they have another source of income which they can use to repay it.
1364  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are there real sports bet groups on: June 29, 2023, 05:18:10 PM
Nope, that's why those people create their own group and convince people to join in their group by paying some fee.

They're making money by give fake predictions, the funny this there's always someone who believe about it since the predictions is mostly correct. But the reason why he can give many correct predictions is he choose favorite team or fighter, so it's obvious favorite team or fighter will have a higher chance to win.
So there are truly groups like that. If someone is desperate enough to have people on their groups, they will do anything including paying people to join them or even buy bots to make their group active. I don't like this kind of approach but it's better if they can grow it organically. If their groups are great, people will just join there easily.

It's not wrong if a group is trying to make money but what is only wrong is if they will provide fake signals. For those who will avail a premium group, they must know that losing is still possible. If they want a sure win, only those who offer a match-fixing call can help them but they should be careful as many of them are just a scam.
1365  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you cheat in gambling? on: June 29, 2023, 03:04:45 PM
Most of the majority say that we do not agree. however, if someone has a trick to trick gambling, especially in this case casino games, slots and the like. chances are, that person will do it lag over and over again. because after all, psychologically we will find it difficult to refuse money that we can easily get. if, there are underhand tricks in gambling. And I know about it, or we have an insider leak from the casino.

To be honest, I can't answer for sure. maybe I will do the trick to get a big profit. it is also possible, I will reject it because it is contrary to my values. Well, we will be faced with two possibilities. if our morals are not strong, then we will do it. fortunately, this conclusion is only a simulation which certainly does not occur in reality. however, it is very likely that there will be many gamblers who commit fraud. if, he has a chance. but that doesn't mean I generalize to all gamblers, but the temptation is indeed difficult for us to avoid. even, including myself. thankfully this kind of underhanded trick, which the OP said in the title of this thread, is rare. In fact, I'm not even sure if we can cheat slot machines.
I somehow agree with what you say, even if everyone refuses it in public and says that they won't do it because it's against their moral values or whatever if any one of them actually gets the opportunity to earn a lot of money by using a trick or by using a vulnerability of the casino platform, I'm pretty sure they would do it and then don't let anyone know what they did because money is something that makes people do all kinds of bad stuff.

Even if one receives a tip about a sports game that one of the teams is going to win the game because it has been fixed, if the source is genuine and you know the tip is 100% authentic, I'm absolutely sure that one will go for it with a higher bet so that they can make more money than usual bets they make.
1366  Economy / Gambling / Re: Why do you still want to play fake web2 casinos? Why we choose web3 casinos on: June 29, 2023, 02:33:44 PM
It's not about web 2.0 or web3, for me the most important thing is that the provider is trusted, the deposit and withdrawal process doesn't take long, customer support available every need, game, uptime its more importan for me. Web3 might be considered better in terms of transaction speed, however, i think all providers have rules such as minimal confirmation for deposits, and the withdrawal process may not be done instantly, even though in fact it already supports web3.
There are basically no deposits and withdrawals in web3 casinos because everything is done on-chain, you connect your wallet with the casino and use your wallet balance directly to place bets, if you win, winnings are added to your wallet balance and if you lose, the bet amount is deducted from your wallet balance, that is how a true web3 or decentralized casino platform should and would operate if a platform doesn't work like that, it isn't web3 at all.

You are right that most people prefer going to casinos where they feel comfortable and safe with everything including their balance, customer support, the games they play, and anything that is important for someone as a gambler, and web2 casinos have been around for quite some time now, so they are trusted as well.
1367  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: June 29, 2023, 10:15:15 AM
Luis Enrique is expected to be announced as the new PSG coach in a short time. Mourinho's name was also among the serious candidates but it looks like they didn't make an offer to him. He was actually open to an offer from PSG as he was looking positive about a move there. But staying at Roma mustn't also be feeling bad for Mourinho as he has been ready to continue working for them. It is difficult to say which one of these coaches would be the best choice for PSG yet.

Both of them have really decent careers so I hope Enrique can be really beneficial for PSG especially in the Champions League. Because PSG want a title winner there to manage the team to achieve the same success. There are just differences in game plan but I assume PSG would work this out at the end of the day.
Yes, we can't compare these coaches as both are having own negatives and positives as well with the best thing both have good achievements and Mourinho is doing good job at AS Roma with now Luis Enrique is good choice for the PSG specially after they are now offloading many superstars and trying to have changes in team as well which will helps new coach for having players of his own choice which will also increase quality and performance which will help them for competing into Ligue 1 after few years things will be completely change, and we will be able to have good fight between top clubs.

But if PSG lost Mbappé and few more top players then surely they can face troubling time as well because this is never been good to lose all top players quickly mostly this creates good mess-up in teams, and they can face problems with this all as well.

Hopefully, Ten Hag can rebuild Manchester United and bring back the glory days reminiscent of the Ferguson era. At the very least, we can enjoy a fierce competition in the EPL, and they can establish themselves as strong contenders in the race for the Champions League.
Ten Hag’s arrival at Manchester United raised the hopes I think of a lot of fans all over. He came in when Man United desperately needed some change. And some change he did bring. Having won the EFL cup and  finished amongst the top four in the just concluded EPL and qualified for the Champions League, one could say it’s a good start in the right direction.

I think we would see a more better performance from Manchester United in the coming season. They would need to gear up for a competitive season and I have some hope that they would be ready. It would be nice to see the glory days of Manchester United during the time of Ferguson come alive again.
Eric ten Hag's arrival at Manchester United surely have big positive impact, and now they are heading for the better future with this all now we need a good support for him from owners as well which are not doing good things, and we have news about change of ownership as well even nothing is clear, but surely this is need of time as well because if this happens then surely things will be on his best for the bright future of this club.

In last season, things were completely under control specially departure of Ronaldo having good impact on them as well now they are trying to have few suitable replacements which are important and hopefully all will be settled which will bring good results in coming season as well and fans will be also delighted after many poor seasons and now hopefully they will enjoy like they have done in Alex Ferguson era.
1369  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ UEFA Euro 2024 in Germany ⚽ - Qualifiers on: June 28, 2023, 04:26:35 PM
I think that the biggest problem for England is that their players are not playing "for the team" when they are playing for the national team. There is a lot of great players in their national team, but you can't have a great national team if you don't have players that get along with each other. I'm not saying that they are fighting among themselves, but I have a feeling that they give their best while playing for their clubs, but not while playing for the national team. And I think that is the reason why they haven't won any title recently.
Yeah agree, I am also following this team for the decades and never understand their problem even they have the best players and their strategy is also never been bad, but they have never been able to have results as expected while they are playing for their clubs they have much more energy but in national team they never play with this heart and energy which give them better results.

Even now we can't talk about this need changes in domestic or any other level, but one thing is sure they need to change mind-set hopefully this will help them for having better results in big events, or they need to go through with their national team to play against domestic clubs as well which will give them better understanding and change in strategy which is important for them.
1370  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why People Still Gamble? on: June 28, 2023, 07:44:29 AM
It’s bit much to say that those are real allegations. I think what we need to understand is gambling and how it’s connected with people. Most of the people are here by choices. Some of them love gambling because they are real with it, they sometimes make it their job, a way to income source and much more. While some of them are just playing for fun and there is no real deal with such people. They won’t care if they are profiting or not. They neither look for recovering their losses and much more. While on the other hand there comes people that you describe who are getting on the wrong foot all the time. I think they are none of the above. They are chaser and gambling isn’t about it.
Those who chase their losses are actually the ones who take gambling as their job because they can't afford to lose any money from their bankroll which makes them chase their losses when they incur, even if they lose everything they have in that pursuit, they don't understand it until it's all done and dusted, that is why everyone suggests that gambling shouldn't be taken seriously and used as a way to earn an income.

Those who take gambling as a source of entertainment and gamble only to have some fun usually stay calm and collected even when they lose some bets, they don't chase their losses because that isn't what they are gambling for, they are doing it only to have some good time which they can have even if they lose some.
1371  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you find it offensive to be referred to as an addicted gambler? on: June 28, 2023, 06:35:19 AM
But telling someone to their face or worse, to someone else, that one is an addict, as if it were diagnosed fact, can be wrong and very harming to one's reputation.
I think a real addict doesn't have much to do with reputation anymore because if he does, he won't have to get to the level of addict, he would place some limit to himself because at that point he is still in control of himself and emotion which makes him to be cautious of his actions. Someone is an addict because he has lost self control to limit himself on his gambling playing habit. Therefore, having reputation is not visible for an addict, that is why giving them help is mostly by initially out of their will , that means the third party has to act for them by taking the decision to help him out of it.
I don't agree with that, even if someone is heavily addicted to gambling, they wouldn't want the world to disrespect them and they still expect to receive respect from everyone because whatever he is doing, whether it's good or bad, it's only for himself and his life and it isn't harming anyone else, they might not care much about things and money and stuff, but they would obviously feel offended if they are disrespected by anyone.

I personally believe that anyone in this world has some dignity no matter what they do or how they live or what their profession is or what their habits are. We should simply respect every individual and don't hurt them by calling them names or doing things that might hurt their emotions.
1372  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: benefits of having mature accounts at 3 casinos (personal experience) on: June 28, 2023, 06:34:33 AM
      -   Maybe that's okay for you, especially for those who have the ability to have a balance in their wallet worth 1000$, this amount is actually not a small amount in our country. This means that not all gamblers like you have such a large sum of money.

Like me, I can't afford to maintain a balance of 1000$ in my wallet on the casino platform. Although before I also tried woldf and I also experienced that I received rain coins.
$1,000 wont be enough to have 3 good level accounts in 3 different casinos. It is even hard to have high level account in a single casino starting with $1,000 only. The most important thing here should not be about how high our account level is but it is better to focus on how good our profit statistic is because it will be useless to have many high level accounts but we are in so bad loses.
And it's absolutely not possible to have a high level account if you are still in profit because we all know how much wagering it requires for you to reach a VIP level, and we also know what happens when we wager a lot of money, we lose, obviously, even if we manage to win some money in between, but the eventual result will be us losing more than winning in pursuit of reaching that VIP level which might give us a few bucks every week or month.

I personally don't think it's worth it, I mean the money that we need to spend in a casino to reach a high level can be used for something much better, gambling should only be taken as a way to get some fun and entertainment and one shouldn't be entitled to it like this.
1373  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: benefits of having mature accounts at 3 casinos (personal experience) on: June 27, 2023, 06:22:09 PM
Thanks for the information and explanation. But it's useful for people who have a lot of money and are willing to take the risk of losing it. But most people will think long and hard before trying it because they don't think it's worth a try.

It isn't worth it for me. From your story, it requires a lot of money before it can reach a certain level. So I guess I'd rather play gambling as usual and not think about the problem of reaching a certain level because gambling is entertainment and nothing more.

But for people who already understand the rules, as you explained, they will try to gamble and level up slowly or quickly, depending on the amount of money they use. But whatever it is, you should have financial records to see your good progress. And I see you can get it without difficulty.
Gambling is not only for the rich. I'm not a rich guy but I manage to rank up my account to Bronze level ( the basic level of VIP system of the casinos ). As long as you don't mind the VIP function of the casino, you won't notice that your VIP rankings are increasing faster. Just focus on your main objective which is to have fun and possibly win some profits if you get lucky.

The OP is right. There are really benefits of having account on a casino, even if it's not 3 but 1 VIP account can already give you a passive income for a lifetime. I guess, we will now realize that the money that we spend before, playing on our favorite casino, did not go to waste but they still return it in the form of a VIP feature.

It appears that the OP's intention for this thread was to gather input and recommendations from the community regarding his gambling website, rather than using it as the primary announcement thread. Like soft-launch or beta testing. The OP can use this thread to gather input from the community, and then he can move on to making a separate announcement when he feels like it's ready for the public eye.
An announcement thread isn't just a thread to announce a new company but they can also use it to gather suggestions to improve their services. That is what l0tt0 dot com is doing currently as you noticed it. If it's about beta testing is the one that you mean, then I think this section is not appropriate for it.

It might fit better on the service section because they will need to pay people for it and they must only accept people who have some skills on testing a website. He can make a separate thread for it but this one is fine already for the announcement of their new gambling site. I can see that they already have a sig campaign. That's great. It seems they are serious about this one despite receiving some negative criticisms.
1375  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Lotteries and possibility vs. probability on: June 27, 2023, 11:52:20 AM
I don't think nor have I personally seen it where a person pays extra money only for the possibility of winning a lottery, but people do that to increase their probability of winning since that determines how much chances of winning the main prize you have, but since we all know that lotteries are a category of gambling and things depend on luck whether it's a win or a loss, most people don't win anything even after buying so many tickets.

I personally believe that we shouldn't purchase extra tickets if we are willing to participate in a lottery because even if you have 10 tickets or 10 thousand tickets, your winning or not winning is never in your own hands, so it's simply wasting money.
1376  Economy / Speculation / Re: This year is dumping ground for bitcoin on: June 27, 2023, 09:59:45 AM
After yesterday's gains, today we see Bitcoin price dropping again and reaching $30,700, another good opportunity for us. That's why we must use it to buy again before the price increases to $ 31k.

In the next month, there could be a rather big movement for Bitcoin or the price will still be like this. So if we are still allowed to buy Bitcoin, we should be able to buy according to the budget we have prepared.

Do not immediately buy using the all-in method in anticipation of another price drop. If we can manage the money to buy Bitcoin, we can buy at many low prices.
I think there are many traders that will probably refuse to buy at the current levels, after all it was not long ago that the price was close to 25k and those traders are not going to want to pay more than 20% more for bitcoin just a week later, so it is possible the resistance at the current level could last longer than expected, as we will need for some time before those traders forget about this and finally decide that the current level is a good enough entry point.
That isn't going to happen, people can see how stable the market has become after the recent growth, and they have also seen what happened last time when the market was stable the same way at the same place, so most investors will obviously wait to see some movement at this point, whether positive or negative because that will at least indicate where the market might go from here as there is a lot of confusion at the moment.

Short-term traders who might have bought at around $25k must be selling their coins to take a profit because they know that if they keep holding, the market might deceive them and drop again and there won't be any point of buying low when you can't sell high and the price gets back to low again.
1377  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: June 26, 2023, 06:28:53 PM
Osimhen's performance this season is why Napoli will demand a high price for him. As one of the best players to score goals and perform well this season, osimhen will be sought after by every team, and he will also want to play for another team to win more trophies and end his career on a high note. However, I don't believe he will be able to switch teams this time because Napoli depends on him now.
Osimhen can play well for many clubs, including Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Bayern Munich, because these teams have teammates who will work with him to score goals.
I understand that he had a great performance, and that is why he should be sold for a lot of money, but to be fair did he had any season like this before? Last season he had 14 goals in 27 games, that's a very normal game and sure yeah you can still sell him for 40-50 if you want with that, and if you can find a buyer, but that's about it, or the year before, 24 games on the league, 10 goals only.

This is why I keep saying that Osimhen shouldn't worth this much just yet, he might be after maybe another season like this but you need to really have a dominant performance back to back to worth 100+ million. To say that he worths as much as maybe 180 million after one dominant season? That's insane. Like if he is not sold and stays at Napoli, do you really see him do it again? I do not think so.

There is rumors Al-Nassr want to sign Marcelo Brozović from Inter Milan, and it seems like these rumors will happen because Inter Milan needs a big amount of funds to buy a lot of players too. Actually, this player is also being targeted by the Barcelona club, but it looks like Barcelona doesn't have enough money to compete with Al Nassr, because I think we know how powerful the Saudi Pro League money is. Brozovic as far as I know this guy was player key for Inter Milan last season, him helping them winning the Coppa Italia, Supercoppa Italiana, as well as reach the final of the UCL.

If I'm not mistaken, 23 million is mentioned as the transfer fee. Barcelona may be in a better situation than in previous years due to financial problems, but I don't think they will pay that much for a 30 years old player.
Saudi Arabian teams are spending so much money right now that we can watch all players over 30 in this league in the coming years Cheesy
Right now, Saudis are not looking in anything they are just trying to have players which can bring good performance in their league and with these fans also increased because their first intention is having good name around the world and also doing some positive work for their campaign which is currently under process for the 2030 world cup.

Cristiano Ronaldo first season give them more than expectations now many players are also jumping into this as salary is more than their thoughts so mostly are looking for this as well even Lukaku rejected this but still he can jump into this currently European clubs can face some backlash just because of this but as we all know it is temporary because all will be again normal in near future.

Even if Manchester United succeed in signing both Harry Kane and Mason Mount, they (Manchester United are no where near Man City in terms of quality). There is so much difference between the quality of players in Man City and Man United, even if United have spent a lot on players.
Manchester City just lost Gundugan, and immediately they replaced him with Kovacic. With the way players develop well under Pep, we'll see Kovacic turn out to be the best version of himself next season.

Manchester City are still winning the premier league if you ask me. Liverpool will put up a fight. I believe the Liverpool of next season will be way stronger than the Liverpool of last season. So it might be a case of Man City at the top, Liverpool second and everybody else, including Man United struggle for third and fourth.
No doubt about this all even Manchester United is trying their best for having competitive squad for the next season and its never been easy because we all know Pep is here for the years and Ten haq is only second season with still developing many things which are never been easy and Pep understand the chemistry, and also he is doing to settle all things for the long run which is also big success and with this all no Premier League team can give them competition even we all know this is one of the toughest league around the world but still dominance of Manchester City is amazing stuff.

Manchester United can improve things, but it's never been easy, and they also need time for this all as well Harry Kane and Mount can bring good changes, but it's never been competitive for the Manchester city because currently they have best in their business players into their squad.

  • decreased the withdrawal fees for Bitcoin, even supporting fee-free withdrawals
Could you elaborate this change, please?

Decreasing withdrawal fee for Bitcoin is understandable because Bitcoin mempools are better recently than months ago with side effects from Ordinals and BRC-20 meme tokens.

What does fee-free withdrawals mean?
Is it applied for Bitcoin, I guess your casino does not support fee-free withdrawals if users choose Bitcoin for their withdrawals.

I think with two change you posted, the fee-free withdrawals will apply for some altcoins.
I think what he said there is pretty clear. If the site has a high withdrawal fee even at their start date or before the BTC fee issue happens then this is a nice update. But I like the free withdrawals even more. I think this was only exclusive to those VIP members which level is a bit higher because it will be a loss to them if all will have the chance to avail it.

There are other cryptos which fees are lesser than in Bitcoin but even so, if this was being total'ed, it will still equate to larger amount. Each gambler should only be responsible to their own fees. I'm sure they can afford it because they are also willing to risk a lot of money by playing gambling when there is no assurance that they can win.
