When you are depending on someone for assistance because you want to gamble it means that you are risking what you can not afford to lose. Why because you don't have the money to gamble but someone have to give it to you before you can stake.
But when you have jobs that pays you money so well and you are gambling it means you are risking what you can afford to lose. Why because ones you lose your job will give you another money.

However, many people would say even if you have jobs but you are staking higher it also means you are gambling with what you can not afford to lose. Moreover it's true and I have to dauth but I have a feeling that ones someone that have a good paying job is staking more than what he can afford to lose, there is no different between addiction there.

When we talk about religion we cannot dine the forbidden things like alcohol, prostitution and many other things in this topic we will discuss why do gambling is forbidden (Haram, interdit) .
So can you tell me why is it forbidden in your religion?
And for the non religious persons what you think ?

Does gambling needs experience or anyone +18, even the inexperienced one can also play? Though playing gamble has a limited age grade or age bracket and the accepted is from  +18 years and there are some casinos hall at the door post, it is written clearly that it is only people of +18 can play. But what about the inexperienced ones, are they allowed to play gamble as well? Or they are also restricted to have the fun? In my observation, there are two elements to participate in gambling. One, you must above 18 years in my country and secondly you must have an experience to play, so I want to know if inexperienced people can also play gamble.

Ever since I have been in this gambling board I have seen lot of questions if this kind and my resolution to it is just I don't have a specific purpose for gambling because the two purpose of gambling here is the core reason for indulging in gambling. how then can I separate them and chose one it doesn't work that way.

for me I gamble for the two either fun or funds, some times it's for fun while some time it's for the money, especially when I'm broke I go for money, yes according people here it's not a response way of gambling but deep down in our hearts we are there for the money. but when im okay or my work is paying me accordingly I just put in some little set out amount and gamble for fun or play those online casino game.

Being addicted to gambling can be a thorn in the flesh. We have heard many bad behavior from gambling addicts that shows that gambling is a serious concern requiring serious efforts at curbing it. Many casinos also include in their disclaimer "gamble responsibly" and this shows the danger of gambling addiction.

However, I'm wondering if addiction can make someone become aggressive to the point of leading to domestic violence. Has there been any known case of it happening? Lets know what you have to say.

If suddenly you went on a binge-gambling out of a lack of self-control or something else. For example, you deposit money in rapid succession after a series of losses and the casino management freezes your account. And when you call their customer support, they tell you that your account has been frozen for 3 weeks and the reason why they carried out that measure was because they suspected that you were gambling irresponsibly and decided to take that measure so that you can call yourself back to order, will you feel furious, cuss out, sign out of your account and register on another casino and continue betting. Does even freezing a customer's account curb irresponsible gambling or betting addiction?

Hello senior citizens and my fellow newbies gambler's, now I gat a straight forward question for you all.
How do I prepare myself for my first gambling experience?
What are the things I should expect as a first time gambler?
How do we react to my first gambling results be it winning or lose?
Thank you all for your helpful opinions.

Anyone here who retired with Gambling winnings ?  If not, how much you think is sufficient to retire as Gambling winning ?

this is 100% not an investment. The author in the starting post invested in some kind of hype project with a ponzy scheme and talks about the excitement that makes you want to make more profit. Previously, dice on trx were popular and there were game tokens in which they invested and part of the profit from the casino went as dividends on this token. Quite an interesting model for investing in the gambling industry, I don’t know if there is anything similar now.

How do you guys manage to take a break in gambling? I’m not asking for advice but rather I’m just interested to know what you are doing on your own or if you really do a break.

I recently decided to take a break since I want to hold my crypto due to its increasing value and I don’t to spend it while it’s giving me passive profit. I just claiming bonus now or anything that is free to still enjoy gambling without risking my money.

What is the instances that makes you take a break in gambling?

@ Onyeeze you mean the god of soccer? very funny, truth be told the SA boys performed more better than the super eagles team all through the game that's because they took over the midfield from us and they had control of the left and right flank which was a little difficult for other teams to do because of the presence of Zaidu in the Nigerian team. Secondly I think the SA team wasted a lot of beautiful chances that they ought to have converted to goals especially their number 10 man Percy Tau who had so many opportunities to score but failed to utilize his chances both in the first half and second half of the game. For the penalty kick, I think they were over confident enough to rely on their goal keeper since he's the first goal keeper so far to save 4 straight penalties in the history of AFCON so they believed he would do the magic but instead of him doing the magic the Nigerian goal keeper Stanley Nwabali became the hero of the night as he was able to stop two penalties that eventually gave Nigera the win.

It sounds stupid to be honest but other sports leagues like Hockey have a similar rule like that. I can already picture a referee handing out blue card for a tackle that took out one of the best performing player in another team. The rule would only makes sense if the call can be challenged immediately but that could also mean more delays in the game.

Do you have a habit of tracking your gambling progress?

There is  these news going round about blue card sin-bins that is said to be introduced as one of the rules in football.
Basically the whole idea of this blue card sin-bins is to punish players that have committed foul against another player, so when the referee shows you blue card, you are to go outside and stay for 10 minutes while the game will still be going on, you will remain there for 10 minutes then you come back afterwards and continue with the game, however this does not take the place of yellow card and the red card.

Locally in my country Nigeria we used to do this for small goal post that is normally called monkey post, if a player tackles his opponent wrongly, we used to tell the prayer to go out and stay for some minutes and then come back, because it's most times a five aside game, so we don't usually use cards. but seeing these rules wanting to be introduced on the international scene surprises me.

So guys how do you see this new intended innovation, is it going to change the face of football across the world, let's have your opinion.

South Africa were playing long balls, knowing we don’t have a good midfield, that was why the first half was difficult for the Nigerian players. I was happy the coach saw the problem and substituted Alex Iwobi for Yusuf, even though Yusuf cost us a penalty. His impact on the game was obvious. Nwabali stole the show, the whole country is singing his praises but the man of the match for me is Ekong. If he did not stop that player on the run, we may have conceded a last minute goal.

Compulsive gambling leads to problem gambling, when the gambler fails to come out from his addiction. This is because when you are a compulsive gambler and can gamble for long giving more time and your funds to gambling. You will end up losing all that you have.

This will now lead that gambler to start looking for where to take a loan, or sell his family properties, and even stealing to gamble forgetting the consequences because he can no longer control himself. Problem gambling is worse compared to compulsive gambling.

Initially I thought that after the ETF drama ended and was approved Bitcoin would easily reach $50k, but in reality Bitcoin struggled to break $50k. I agree with you, maybe $45k looks easy but to reach $50k it seems like bitcoin takes more time.
