621  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: June 25, 2017, 08:21:30 AM
Even you will tell it to the addicted gamblers then will have hard time to understand it. And instead of stopping and realizing they are totally addict in gambling. That's also a thing in gambling, when you started to become addicted, it will make you more addicted and you will be tied up to it. That leads to main reason why everyone can't get out of it.
That's because they are so dependent on gambling that they forgot who they are and they are probably out of their minds because all they think about is the chance of winning the jackpot, and that's not going to work.

It's really happening and this the true nature in gambling, they almost forgetting who they are because of their personal interest and goal in gambling. It's the sad fact that there are people who are thinking about hitting the jackpot or raking any good amount everyday but it's ending up like a disaster.

I think that people will not end up addicted if they don't expect great chances of that kind of lucky dreams to have in gambling like jackpot or lucky big amount to win. Aggressiveness of betting the games is the main reasons that resulted to addiction from gambling and without self control, you really fall into trap of being binded to extreme problems.

It's the nature in gambling, and why in the first place you are gambling? You have read good feed backs that many did became rich because of it or you just want to try it out. And why you will become aggressive in the first place too? It's because you are aiming something that you think it's possible in gambling.

I also ask that question for the people why we think to become rich only for gambling?
Because it is a first step to become addicted, and continuously playing gambling then the day is not far when we become addicted. I am sure you are right because why we concentrate and feel aggressive only for gambling? If gambling is not in our mind and we play it like a gamer than i don't think that gambling is so addictive.
  
Many reasons for it like not easy in choosing an investment or they play gambling because they want to get fast money without having to think. We can be addicted to gambling because there is the money we can get from gambling. I think it's very hard to you avoid not being addicted to gambling if you've known gambling.

Conte wants Alex Sandro and Bonucci from Juventus. Chelsea offered over 100M to have both players.
If Alex Sandro leaves, Juventus will take one between Danilo, Darmian or Fabinho

Il Manchester United wants Perisic of Inter. Its cost is about 50/55M.
Inter wants Inaki Williams (23 years old) of Ath. Bilbao. Its cost is 50M.


I think Chelsea's demand will not be completed, Because Juventus should not left this couple of defense player. Not only that but also bonucci is not interested in playing outside Italy, but Sandro can be managed. I think if Sandro will leave the old lady then it will be difficult to make up his position by replacing anyone.
There is news saying that juventus have agreed to release alex sandro if any a club that wants to buy him but juventus not  agreed to release bonucci because he is the one of the best defender.
623  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2016/17 on: June 24, 2017, 09:02:24 AM
With his retirement Iniesta I feel Barcelona will lose an important player, inesta it is a player who can drain the movement of the ball from the middle of the field. Proved his contribution several years ago with barcelona he always played as a starting line-up.
actually he has worry about his future in Barcelona because apparently the owners still not provide an extended contract for him even he was expect could retire in Barcelona but if the club decide will not renew the contract i think this year maybe will be the last season for him in Barcelona


Next season will be very interesting to see the news of Barcelona.
There will be a real revolution with a new coach (Valverde) and new players especially in defense and midfield. It will be difficult to replace a champion like Iniesta. However, Barcelona can start from the best attack on the world (Messi-Neymar-Suarez)

In modern football you whole team not just attackers,  team is Defense Middlefield and forwards.
Without all 3 nothing can be done, but this is still Barcelona.

What you are telling is true that for football they need defense, middlefield and forwards, but for barcelona Messi one is enough to win the game. without him most of the games they have lost it.

Messi is enough for Barcelona to win? Nope, he was not that good anymore last season. He could not help Barcelona to win main titles last season, it means that Messi is not the only one who can make Barcelona win. He is just a player who wont be able to make his team win by himself without the helps of other players. There is no more "one man sho" soccer game in this world.

Certainly not just 1 player to win trophies or championships, but  helps to have big champions like CR7 or Messi.
Barcelona needs to regenerate his team but it is much easier to start off if they already have an extraordinary attack like Suarez-Messi-Neymar.
Despite a bad season, Barcelona scored over 150 goals, of which 116 in Liga, 26 goals in champion's league.
I am convinced that Barcelona, also helped by Messi, will return to win already next season.
No doubt the game shown by barcelona is very interesting to see, they can always win with a big score but if viewed from the side of achievement, barcelona still fails.
624  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Fifa Confederations Cup 2017 discussion and predictions Thread on: June 24, 2017, 08:53:45 AM
Most likely the semi-finals will be: Portugal vs Germany and Chile vs Mexico.
I expect to see the final between Chile and Portugal that are the strongest teams and in shape of this Confederation's Cup.


Yeah after seeing the players brought by each team, I agree there is a possibility that Chile and Portugal will met in the final match. before this competition start i've predict germany can take this thropy but sadly leroy sane can't play.
625  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: June 24, 2017, 08:49:58 AM
I think coming season will be a great season for football fans, Ac Milan have gathered a couple of good players. Juventus are waiting for some negotiating matter, Roma and Napoli are also trying to collect some players..so next year's league will be competitive in a high rate...

Yes that's what we are hoping for so that the serie A will regain its lost glory. Juventus are already a complete team,same as Napoli but we need international , Roma and AC Milan to add up to complement the competitiveness of the league.

The next season will be more balanced than in the past.
Ac Milan is building a great team, Inter has taken an excellent coach, Napoli is ready to win the Serie A.
In addition, the top four will qualify directly for champion's League (groups).

At the moment the odds for the winner of the Serie A are:

Juventus @1.55
Napoli     @5.50
Roma      @7.50
Inter       @9.00
Ac Milan @10.00
Juventus always be favorite to be the winner in last some years, it's will continue until roma can compete with them but i think as roma isn't seriously to build their team because they has sell some player that have potetial. so maybe juventus will get serie A thropy for seven times in a row.
626  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: June 24, 2017, 08:44:58 AM
Muhammad Salah has been contacted to Liverpool football club, he played an important role in Roma. That's why Liverpool manager klopp has made a good decision to recruit him. Hopefully Liverpool will get benefited from  this Egyptian footballar. By this signing Liverpool have gained more strength to fight for the next season...
Liverpool have been wanting Mohamed Salah even since the Brendan Rodgers era. But then, Liverpool lost high in offering money by Chelsea. And after 3 years, Liverpool still want Mohamed Salah, probably because of his enormous interest in Liverpool that made Mohamed Salah choose to join.
He is fast and skillfull player, so he can acclimate quickly with Klopp playing style, he will be a good addition to Liverpool, from other side, I believe Liverpool will have new fans from Egypt as this player has great popularity in his country.
Yes he is typical of Jurgen Klopp's favorite player. And there's Sadio Mane on the right side and Mohamed Salah on the left side, I'm sure the liverpool attack line will be even more frightening. Especially if liverpool have a pure striker who has a physically stronger than the Liverpool striker now. Firmino can not always be paired up as a striker.
That's the main problem, liverpool doesn't have pure striker maybe liverpool will buy one striker because firmino can't play at there. he not a striker, he is second striker and that's position has been taken by countinho.
627  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is still faster than Paypal. on: June 23, 2017, 06:06:05 AM
I can agree with you, bitcoin is by far faster than paypal because if you send bitcoin to a card in will take max an hour to use them as cash, and paypal will need 1-2 business days. The time of confirmations for the transaction is another issue, and it's happening for the security of the money.
It all depends on whether his paypal account has direct access to credit card or not if yes, then i agree paypal faster than bitcoin but honestly i'm a bit disliked paypal because it can only be used for online shopping.
628  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you think billionaires invest in BTC? on: June 23, 2017, 05:58:40 AM
Billionaires are open minded so it is very obvious that they invested in bitcoin because bitcoin is one of the most searched in the google in terms of currency and because of that the billionaires might get attracted in bitcoin and they will just invest on it and hold it for at least 10 years because the billionaires are always into long term just what they do to their other investment.

I believe so, as billionaires could achieve their place through some research and investments intuition. And bitcoin is one of the way to doubled their capital, so that bitcoin could pump so fast due to their funds flow in and then drop back if they cash out, I believe they are what we called whales. Grin At least, billion of dollars flow in and out through cryptocurrencies world, and it should be come from some billionaires that  make the calls.
But there are a lot of stocks opportunities with trillion market cap which are obvious options for those billionaires. I mean to say it would be hard for those billionaires to consider bitcoin for their investment to double their money.

Because in their view bitcoin is still small venture in terms of total market cap. But there will be some exceptions some other people who will be liking to take more risk might be investing into bitcoin these days.
I don't agree with you the billionaires are not interested in investing in bitcoin if they know by investing in bitcoin can double their money then they will invest and in my opinion the billionaires doen't care about if those investment like what because they only want to know, that's investment profitable or not.
629  Other / Archival / Re: Do you think that you're addicted to gambling? on: June 23, 2017, 05:49:29 AM
I have never experienced gambling addiction. I feel that gambling is just a game to find pleasure.
People who are looking for profits must have experienced this. I never consider gambling is a job, gambling is a hobby.
yes for the players who gamble only for fun it is not an addiction and they feel that they are playing without addiction. That is right but if the player do not waste much of his time and will give a good time to his normal life.

Sometimes gambling fornfun becomes too much and it can also result to addiction. I think a lot of cases start with people enjoying too much when they gamble. It's not about the profits or the losses but the "fun" the have while gambling. So it's really not safe to say that gambling for fun only can avoid you becoming addicted to gambling.
I think no, people who can have fun in their gambling will never be addicted to gambling because they gamble just for a moment after they will not touch gambling again for a few moments. if you want to know you are addicted to gambling or not, it's easy. you will play gambling in almost your all days.
630  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Incredible odds. Need your opinion about new game! on: June 23, 2017, 05:43:27 AM
~snip~

I like the idea and i like the systematic way on how the lottery-based gambling do work but i would frankly say that better to seek of on other gambling games than on lottery because it wont really give you decent amount number of players here on this forum because mostly will just ignore this one,there are lots of site or owners do tried out on making lottery based but all of them do fail or dont tend continue even more because of lack of interest.

Dice is the most popular gambling game here.But I find OP's idea interesting. This game is just like on the raffle game in collectible section. Winner takes all the bet. It will be a good idea if the price is not just the total amount of bet but a fixed big price just like a normal lottery mechanics. IMO, I preferred a lottery that has only one draw each day. So far. I can't see a gambling site with lottery game with same mechanics on the original lotto style. Cheesy
I think he has a concept that is not much different with the lottery but the difference is the winner here is only one, it's different lottery that can be won by some players. Yes you are right maybe lottery is better because some players can win it if guessing number correctly.
631  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is the best bankroll? on: June 23, 2017, 05:38:32 AM
There is no best bankroll I ever had, it all depends on how much I can afford to lose because saaat start gambling I do not know lose or win. Honestly i never remembered how many best i ever used but i remember ever win around $ 1000.
632  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How would you store >100 Bitcoins? on: June 22, 2017, 06:56:02 AM
I like this if I have 100 bitcoin Im really rich. I would rather cashout my 50 btc into fiat to enjoy my life, Id like to travel around the world and complete my bucketlist. So, I would like to restore my 50 btc into 5wallets to ensure that it is secured with 2FA for security purposes.
I agree with you to separate 50/100 btc on some online wallets. I think this way is safer than we store 100btc in one wallet even though many say that hardware wallet is safe but separating on some wallets will be safer.
633  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Worst mistake in gambling on: June 22, 2017, 06:48:55 AM
I have made seversl mistakes while gambling like earning a profit of of 0.5 btc and then getting a loss of 0.2 and then earning 0.12 from 0.007 etc etc. The only mistake i made was depositing funds on gambling sites in the first place if i had never done all this i would have a good sum of coins but i havr surely learned a lesson
Yes everyone of us here already made a mistake and totally will learn from it. And it's really sad that you already have a sum of money which you profited from the game and then it will lose at the end of the day. That's really hard for me recover so right now I'm playing safe when it comes to gambling.
Not all can learn from the mistakes they have made, sometimes it will be repeated. For example I was wrong made a bet and at that time I regret because of my mistakes but I still do the same mistake may be because I play on online gambling. I know in online gambling we have to be careful before making a bet but we must hurry  to place a bet because the set time is given by casino is not too long and sometimes the internet connection slows down.  IMO This is the worst mistake often done by gamblers.
634  Economy / Economics / Re: How to double your money using BTC? on: June 21, 2017, 08:12:11 AM
The easiest way to double the money with bitcoin is to fix it, just buy bitcoin now and keep it for a few years, maybe 5 or 10 years, then your money will multiply, buy bitcoin and forget it, it's quite easy
I think it's still speculation because maybe the bitcoin price will not be higher in the next few years. Because all possibilities could happen? It's better to double your bitcoin in the near future. Such as trading, gambling, binary, etc

yes trading is good way of making our investment double, but it need to have good experience in trading, and without experience and trading knowledge trading is more risky, while  in gambling you need a good luck, because in most of the gambling games we mostly depend on our luck, if we are luck we can easily make money from gambling without any hard work and struggle.

As we know trading and gambling are too risky, it's better to just hold the bitcoins as said the first quote. We don't know what will happen with bitcoin price in the future, but most investors think bitcoin price will continue increasing for the next years.
What are very good estimatives and many persons agree, and I think it too.

If you don't want to take any risk of loosing your bitcoins then its good to hold them in wallet without doing anything to it as if you invest it in trading or go for gambling then there is a high chance of loosing money as both methods involves higher risk especially if you are new to bitcoin.
I think I would advise investing in gambling appeals. Playing gambling has a really high risk. Better take the investment, because it has minimal risk, and also can make your bitcoin has doubled.
Yes ,only legit investment can make you bitcoin doubled ,if we think on bitcoin investments there are many you only need to be innovative and to learn things in investings towards a good profit that will be over doubling your bitcoins.
Investing in a gambling is a big deal especially if a gambling have a big potential to hit the market and get attracted to its uniqueness.
As i know legit investment never offer you can get double your money, only a scam investment that offering it to you but if you want to double your money using BTC. you can try trading  only with this way you can make your money double.
635  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you save bitcoin for fun or for future purpose? on: June 21, 2017, 08:00:34 AM
I do save bitcoin for future purposes i want to secure my future thru bitcoin i believe on the power of bitcoin and i know the price of it will continue to pump until it hits $10000. i know its possible and i am sure i will be happy on that time. Well i do have fun joining signature campaign and trading also.
We can not determine the price that will happen. All I do is keep generating bitcoin and then saving it a few percent for the future and the rest for daily use. I just want the price to go up at least 2 times what I bought and then sell it

Yeah no one know about it, it's good decision if you have choose to saving a few percent from your earning for the future. Bitcoin prices are quite high and we never know whether bitcoin prices will continue to rise or not. i think carefully is better than we make careless decisions because we can't be wrong in determining the future.
636  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you use analysis when play gambling? on: June 21, 2017, 07:48:37 AM
Yes, when dice gambling I will use the analysis. Because it is quite helpful rather than blind gambling. And the target is small, then my emotions can be controlled. But still, name of gamble there must be only two choices: lose or win.
You can't analyze random numbers and it is not helpful because it is blind gambling.
Your point of view is wrong.

if i am playing dice gambling, i am not using any analysis, i only place a bets i want, click the roll button, drink a cup of coffee and see if my number is out or not. but if for the other games like sports betting or poker, i think we need to use analysis, at least we need to know what prediction we make and i think its like an analysis.
Games would be more fun if you will play it with your analysis, whatever games I played I always have some kind of analysis, like following the trend or anything that would come out on my mind. I know games like dice is a luck based games and analysis would not work in order to win, but to have more fun, I guess it's pretty effective.
If you already know that the analysis does not work on dice game why you did, as I know only in the sports betting games we can do the analysis though for any game in gambling it all depends on luck.

638  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to control greed on gambling? on: June 21, 2017, 07:28:57 AM
Majority of the gamblers feel nervous on their bets and that is good because that is where the excitement comes in.
Being a gambler, we should be get used to this kind of feeling but it seems like every time we gamble the thrill is always there, it's fun when we win and it's sad when we lose but the end of the day, we should accept what happen and move on to the next activity.

Well that is the main reason why it is very addicting, and tends to greediness. As you said, every game is an excitement, it's fun when we win and it's sad when we lose. That's where the thirst came in, if we win, we wanted to play more and bet more, whilst when we lose, we want to take it back, so we play more. See? Its only a cycle, there's no way you can control yourself in this kind of matter. You will be more eager to play when you always win.

Greediness is really hard to control. Even when we are loosing we felt greedy inside and will think to get our money back. Greedy in a sense that thinking we can re coup or lose and then win big. But this is not always the case, it is hard to re coup losses and so much more of winning. So yes, this will be a vicious cycle that it is hard to stop or control.
yes greediness is natural to human and it is not so easy to stop it, but if we try our best we can control it up to some limit. but still greediness will always be present in human nature and will surely effect the personality of the people.
I'm pretty sure no one can control the greedy nature. Although we have set a target before gambling to stop after winning but that happens is always the opposite. we will still gambling because greed has controling us.
639  Economy / Speculation / Re: Sell or wait? on: June 20, 2017, 07:30:24 AM
I just wait the right time before I sell it, because I looking forward that in the future value of bitcoin were continues raising up. However, I was not sure how long bitcoin price remain in to high amount.
That's a good choose, you choose to wait than you sell it now even though the price rise but you are not panic to sell it maybe you have same like me believe it if in the future bitcoin price would be higher than the current price.
640  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What if, we advertise bitcoin on T.V.? on: June 20, 2017, 07:20:18 AM
We do not need to advertise bitcoin on T.V. because a lot of media give a news about bitcoin and I think many people already know what is crypto currency but only a little of their interest in bitcoin or crypto currency. what we need to do is we tell all know the benefits of bitcoin.
