Has anyone been able to make steady income with gambling ? If yes, what had been your strategy ? Do you diversify to multiple games in order to ensure that end result is always profit ?

I personally feel that there are very less chances of making a steady income with gambling. In fact, if you win a big amount in gambling, from there on , you should play games with less on stake and keep the winnings invested in some good option like crypto. It is important to have self control to end profitably with gambling ventures online. Do you agree with this?
Most of us have made some losses in recent time and gambling have not been the most interesting thing to take as a steady means of income and at some point it will ruin your life if you take gambling as a means to make a steady income,  because gambling winning is not something that can be repeated and at that one can't bet on it winning to make an earn meets.

Most times the gamblers that take gambling as a means of income mostly end up in losses and most can't recover from such losses in the long run.

Moreover, I like to know if you really believe you can win in sports betting in the long run, or you just really think no chance because every game can be win by luck, sports betting is not exemption.

Winning sports betting especially soccer is not difficult  but it depends on how much that you will win. If you take a small risk then you are likely to win but a very small amount also and increasing the risk means likely to lose. That is the challenge. I'm sure many users here win in soccer bet.

So among the games used in betting, sports is the most practical. It is more friendly, you can relate with sports and understand them without a third-party explanation most likely but other gambling games are rigorous to understand. It is more of practical with sports and people already take part in the games practically by playing them in the field or tracks, so it is self-explanatory, explicit and not confusing.
Not just winning in secrets but also winning in real-time which has made them to choose sports over other games,  most time a lot depends on the ability of the gambler to predict the outcome of the matches or games and that will reduce their chances of losing or increase the chances of winning,  just like Gozie51 said,  a lot of us here win regularly on sports bets and this makes the bets to become our favourite at all time.

Most time before you win on in house games,  you may have lost a lost a lot of time before and this is mostly predictable and avoided in sports bets because gamblers have the chance to analyze the games.

Should AI be relied on for sports betting predictions?
In the long run, AI will not help, the casino will have the advantage of the house edge. You can use AI for other things in gambling, but not prediction because AI is not that better than knowledge humans in gambling.
At all,  AI will only predict some easily available data but will not be able to make an on-time decision if the game changes in its dynamism which sometimes needs human actions to either save the total loss or take profits sometimes.

Major reasons why AI development has not really made any headway in major discussions are which is more important than not having some real effect on the success of this development.

Lol! Good initiative by the people, but I feel that such parades do very little to help out-of-control gamblers fight their addictions. What truly matters the most is inner willpower in these cases.

The ones that possess strong willpower can overcome their gambling addiction while the ones with weak willpower will probably never overcome this issue.
Some factor that have contributed greatly to the lack of ability to defeat addictions is personal willingness from the addict himself and that must have to do with the ability to defeat the addiction in your mind and head first before every other things,  most times it's better to prevent addiction than to fight it because in fighting addiction you must be prepared to fight an almost impossible evil to defeat,  some times you may need to visit a doctor for some prescriptions.

Most of the time,  many people fail to understand these factors and choose to work much more as preventive than prescription or treatment of addictions.

Welcome to the forum,  but then why rush to announce your project when it's still under development and beside this is a bad way to start,  a lot of members may lose interest in the project after seeing that you have not launched yet,  but so much so we all need to identify the factors that may likely effects your marketing.

Such as:
1:timing
2: mode of marketing
3: site efficiency
4: games features and probabilities.

This and many more are the things that must be carefully looked at.

Sometimes,  most scammers are most smartest set of forks on the internet but they choose to use the smartness in the wrong directions and that,  so for sure educated or not,  what really matters is what they tend to believe and act on.

Scamming of of different classes and categories and for sure some uneducated people also scam but then they have to put in some dubious tactic that allows them to act on the minds of the victims.
1407  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why sports betting? on: November 30, 2023, 02:45:35 PM
Sports bets are more easily won due to the ability of the gambler to easily analyze and speculate the games at some point and being able to relatively predict the outcome of the game,  so for sure since there is no house edge over sports bets that makes it more adapted by many gamblers who have to believe in the sport and are fans that watch the actual sports games such as football matches.

This makes it easier for them to analyse the team based on their player's ability and performance in previous games.
1408  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who among you here is gambling at work? on: November 30, 2023, 05:33:21 AM
It's me, In our country our maximum parents discouraged their children and boy's and girls not to do any kind of side work before complete their study. They think that will create defect on their study. Gambling you know in Bangladesh gambling in illigali and it's highly risk to economy. I started gambling on my own and hid this from my family. My parents are not aware of my gambling habit.
I think you have deviated a bit from the original topic of discussion because this question is not about gambling in the country or hiding it from your parents,  but it is about what you do at work,  whether or not you gamble at work and how do you feel gambling in the work environments.

Just like I have been telling folks who combine gambling with other things,  you have to be smart enough to be able to share your time and thoughts between both,  and most times,  that is not as easy as it sounds and for that,  we have to consider some things such as how almost impossible of is to combine gambling with any other thing so the best thing to do is to separate your gambling time from every other thing and only gamble at your free time.
1409  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sometimes betting is just ridiculous. Sometimes it is complete nonsense. on: November 30, 2023, 05:23:45 AM

I understand that this is fake and was made for a joke. But some people dont know what jokes should be ended or are inappropriate... However, since some casinos have "special" section in sports betting (why this is in sports betting anyway?), and allow to place bets on election outcome, or on Oscar winner, or on music event like Eurovision, I would not be much surprised that in 5 or 10 years we would really have such absurd betting options. And most important what scares me, that casinos will hide behind "there is a demand on such betting" and there really be people who will find this demanding.

Edit:
As people did not bother real whole post, I will make it more visible

SOMEBODY PHOTOSHOPPED THIS. THIS IS NOT A REAL BET.

I still really remember when the war between Russia vs Ukraine happened, there were jokes about bets like this and to be honest making the war a bet was a bad joke, there were a lot of human lives that died, really only wild animals would make the lives of those who died as a joke bet. Currently the war between Israel vs Palestine will happen again because the 4 day ceasefire agreement has passed, there will be more casualties and if there are people who make the war between these two countries a bet then they are lower than animals.
Well is all about what people feel is right vs what they do as the right thing,  this is not different from every other aspect of life such as in the war situation,  people fight war and at the same time other people preach peace so the same that some may feels is ok to bet on wars,  while others sees that as a no go area for them, since they gambling just for the fun of it and anything that affects human life,  they try as much as possible to avoid them at all cost.

So for sure, we may just have to ignore whatever these people are trying to promote or whatever money they feel it will bring to them by betting on an absurd thing like war at some point,  best for me to just avoid such since it involves taking humans' life.
1410  Economy / Gambling / Re: Rollbit.com | Crypto's Most Rewarding Casino 👑 on: November 29, 2023, 08:56:56 PM
An interesting post and information from Rollbit team to mark 16 weeks since a Dashboard to track hourly buy back and burn of RLB token.

So far 38.58% of total supply was burned with the Buy back and Burn program.

The Duel Arena game is live days ago and there is daily giveaway too. Join the giveaway and play the game.

Its amazing to learn that Rollbit is actually generating more revenue from casino games, even much more than they generate from sports betting, I personally have always though that gambling casinos make more money from sports betting than they make from casino and slot games.

Anyways, this is actually good indeed, and I wish that every gambling casino will be as transparent as Rollbit in this regard, though I personally do not see how this benefits the users normally, but then, it helps the casino gain her users trust and loyalty as well.

I will like to ask if there is a threshold of number of RLB tokens that will be burnt? That is, is there a number of tokens that will be burnt, and the burning will stop? Or will the burning just continue like it is currently?
For the fact that casino have total control of their in house games that alone make them at advantage than in sports and also for sure having the house edge in inhouse games like dice,  slot and other in-house games makes it possible for casinos to make more money on inhouse games than the make from sports bet,  and this is a fact that we all are expected to know by now and should be able to build our u understanding around that.

Remember Rollbits have not mentioned any we're what percentages that they will be taking in burning the tokens to make the total supply limited and more scarce in the market

Anyways, is anything wrong with site at the moment?, I am having serious connection issues, I thought it was my network that was bad but I still can connect to this forum without struggles, but I keep losing connections on the site, is there any sort of upgrade going on or something?
I guess that should be from your networks because everything seems to be fine from my own end here and I am sure that it ok and working from other regions, you have to shut down your device and on it again to be sure that you have no any other r log issues that could make your internet connection to operate in a restricted manner.

But for sure lotto site is working well,  let hope everything works out fine from the four ends and if the problem persists,  you should may change your mobile network.

The thing be to say,  the way we Dey Drive for Naija dey different from the way we the drive for the abroad,  simply because for Naija we believe say na our land and at the same time we know to say law no too dey effective for this country and for that,  many time some Nigerians drive in a way that you can't imagine even if they attend driving school so that is just the Nigeria mentality in them and reason why you as a road user need to be an expert in your driving skills.

Let me tell you what I do while driving, I try as much as possible to drive rightly and also will not give way to just anybody who is just behind me for whatever reason,  as long as I am driving within the speed limit for that lane because some Nigerians can be funny at times.

Sometimes,  this just comes by luck and if you have been lucky to have won such a huge amount in a sports bet,  it is expected of you to take a break and enjoy your win in first Instead of trying to over tress your luck along the line,  this is most better when it comes to online betting,  once you hit the jackpot it good for you to just take a leave and enjoy your money because gambling is full of uncertainty.

One of the things that Satoshi Nakamoto makes us understand in the Bitcoin whitepaper is that,  ~bitcoin should be allowed to develop naturally,' so for such as in the current situation in the Bitcoin network,  there must be a need to adapt to another sector of the networks that serve as alternatives as long as it will enhance your independent and privacy and being part of the bitcoin primary objectives.

I have set up a Bitcoin lightning network and have made a series of transactions on the network with almost zero fees,  so it's an aspect that I may want everyone to take a look at.
1415  Economy / Gambling / Re: QuitGamble.com - Free Help for Problem Gamblers on: November 29, 2023, 07:03:48 PM
People will not learn a lesson unless they try to experience the worst thing happened in their life that's why we see a lot of people fail on things they do especially on gambling where they think the money is fast. They always think about its easy for them to get rich that's why they got a wrong information installed in their mind and when they face the real scenarios happening there they lose so much and can't control their self anymore since they want to gamble more so they can recover back their losses and to earn huge because they think if they are consistent they became a good gambler later on.

And then they failed and get hook to much that's why its good to have good platforms where we can go if we want to seek some help and also the support of family is really important so that we can get away with this addiction then get back to our normal life.


Yes, that is the reality of life that if you tell people to avoid certain things, they won't listen to you but when they themselves get the losses from such acts, only then they will realize their mistake. This is also very common in gambling. You keep on telling the gamblers to be responsible and not be greedy but the gamblers won't listen. They will only realize that we were right when they will face the loss and learn that whatever was told to them was right.

Anyways we need platforms like QuitGamble etc so that people keep reminding themselves of the dark side of it and remain in balance while gambling.
When it comes to humans,  the most difficult thing is to advise them outside their own life experiences and as such it has to do with a lot of time and what comes their way as individuals what they choose to believe in and whatever,  most times the individuals chose to believe whatever they chose to and at the same time we must choose what choices and what are their possible outcomes.

All this need to be considered while making decisions on what we take as risk and what to expect along the line,  for sure personal face hand experience is far more better than telling someone because of third-party experiences it doesn't work that way and as far as I know everyone needs to make a choice based of the information that they have gained.
1416  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think that this is aperfect analogy of how gambling addiction starts? on: November 29, 2023, 05:50:05 PM
The link is actually talking about gambling regulation but I don't know if it is workable that casinos will refuse an addict to gamble in there platform or would have a limit to how much times to wager, lose or win because seriously they are out for business and would maximize their profit potential.

It is left for the individual to know how to control his emotions not to over wager his budget and to give up on a bad gambling day.
Well, some casinos have a feature in a place where the victim who is the addict can go and have himself excluded from the casino this way the account is locked and even though this may not be a 100% means of getting off gambling,  it still remains very predictable to say that many of such gambling addicts still fall back to the addictions if they have not properly made up their mind to stay off addictions in the first place.

So for sure many casinos may want to help the player to stay off addictions but then at some point, those addicts are the ones at the centre of everything since self-discipline is the sure root to stay above addictions of any form,  we can't blame casino entirely because there are operated for profits making and nothing more.
1417  Economy / Gambling / Re: Rollbit - be aware, i was lucky on: November 29, 2023, 05:42:26 PM
Most casinos have a system in place that acts as if the whole mechanism of. The system is designed to cheat the players but then also we have to be sure that what we feel and see as a cheat from the casino is not just one of those unfavourable house edge advantages that the casino has silently mentioned in their terms and conditions.

So for sure we as players have to be clear on some things to help us avoid many assumptions,  because what was mentioned that Rollbits scammed him is all tailored to the fact that he may have failed to properly understand how this casinos act with their principles.
1418  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tips on staying responsible. on: November 29, 2023, 04:48:07 PM
Having that knowledge and having the right mindset when you are already inside gives you the chance to stay or to keep your composure,  as knowing the risk and still continuing your participation will give you lesser chances of becoming addicted,  if you know and understand everything,  you can control and be responsible enough to avoid addiction.
We know the basic fundamentals of the system, some of us derived joy in ruining our plans unexpectedly, when we continue to gamble without any plans for proper entry, just triggering positions because we just wany to win, we forgets that there's existence of serious hardwork, because we're easily moved by what we see, talking about what we see, I mean we're more open to gambling and it consumed the higher portions of our activities and mind. There are numerous tips to stay on the lane of been a responsible gambler in the system. We're not here to make accounts for losses, rather we're here to milk the system.
Right mindset and frame of mind will give you a guarantee of having a stable and on time decisions based of the available facts at your disposal just like Fred stated that knowing will help you to make the right decisions at all times,  and this has a lot of it advantage most especially when you are at a point where you need to make some on time decision that can affect your financial status.

Much more also has to do with how much our dept of chasing any formation is and how best we choose to handle that aspect whether it be it profits or losses because any of the two can result in a bad ending if not properly done with the right knowledge.
1419  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Risking 1% in Gambling on: November 29, 2023, 04:07:32 PM
Quote
Guideline 1: Gamble no more than 1% of household income
Don’t bet more than 1% of your household income before tax per month. For example, someone with a household income of $70,000 before tax should gamble no more than $58 per month.

Recently I decided to risk only 1 percent of my gambling portfolio into each bet. This makes my bet risk free as I know that even if I lose the bet I will lose only 1% of my gambling money.

Do you guys also follow a similar strategy like gambling with 1% or 2% on each game? This way not only we are safe from losing big amounts but at the same time, we never find ourselves in a situation where we go all in, in some bet and then have the fear of losing all of our money.

You must have heard the 1% strategy in trading, the same can be applied in gambling too and believe me, you will feel a lot more comfortable using this 1% of your money in every game.
This also gives you a lot of games to play before you end up on your money as on every bet you will use 1% of your money. In case you lose all bets, you will be playing 100 games because your money is exhausted.


The Lower-Risk Gambling Guidelines
Many times I lost after trying to go beyond a high percentage of total gambling and I believe that a 1% budget is still very ok and lower the risk at all time,  some time what leads to a lot of losses,  so for that we need to put every possible measures in place that will guarantee us a safe and secured winning at the end of the day.

So for such, there is a need to set a lower leverage that guarantees us a lower risk and higher chances of winning the bets or making profits in trades as the case may be.
1420  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sometimes betting is just ridiculous. Sometimes it is complete nonsense. on: November 29, 2023, 03:29:01 PM
I have just later think of this, it is true that war is not good, but people that are using it to bet are not the one causing the war, their bets do not add any benefit or harm to the war. If they bet on it, I do not think there is anything bad about it. If people do not want such a bet, they should tell the governments of the world not to go against each other in a way that will lead to war, but that is not possible. But if there is no war, there will be no bet like this.
The fact that war is political in all senses of things,  we can and are free to open up a bet on the war,  the shade of another man's blood is bad in all senses,  so for that, we tend to condemn every genocide of any nature,  but also we have to open up the fact that not all war is fought in physical take economic war, for instance, it's still a very strong weapon that countries use against each other.

So for sure,  war when it is political is fair enough to be gambled on,  but anything that has to do with killing of kids,  women and vulnerable people is bad and should be condemned.
