there is no maximum amount of money that you can earn with the gambling games if you are lucky enough, it is possible to win millions i think, but thats just my opinion
yeah its depends on odds you're playing
like hui playing at primedice, he is lucky man, won 11 btc with 9999x odds
i think to earn a big profit you have to take risks

Yeah i think he has won on the 9999x odds a few times? or at least once.  11 BTC was the biggest one time win of that.  From what i remember he won by trying to hit 9999x over and over and if you are going to do that all day you will actually hit it on some day.  Overall usually you will be down unless you are lucky.

I'm playing 3.3$ 9max STT these days , I have played around 400 games and my ROI is 22% so far
so actually poker players can calculate how much they can make by taking a large sample of games
in my case I'm expecting to make 0.726$ every game + rakeback


Thats decent but probably need an even higher sample to be sure of 20%+ ROI as that is quite high.  I know i have played several hundred k of cash game hands and broke even - usually i am a winning player.

People should check out sites like sharkscope or pokertableratings and there you can see very large samples of winning poker players.

OK and what about sports betting? Is it a kind of gambling or because of the different strategies and probabilities you should not call it gambling but anything else?
I'm not familiar with sports betting yet. I've heard that there is no house edge in sports betting (and poker). So the "luck" in the end is only depends on the information people can collect before betting and on personal expectations about the results of the events? Are there any (or a lot) misleading information online that can differentiate people's bets or it's only personal expectations that makes bets different?

There is no clear house edge in sports betting but the book makers attempt to give the majourity of bettors the wrong price for the outcome of a sporting event.  They play the market vs the market, if huge bets goes on one side they will shift the odds as a result. This always works for the book makers with enough people betting they cant go wrong really long term.

Atletico Madrid did not concede a goal in the last two La Liga games, winning 1-0 and 2-0. Celta Vigo did not score a goal in the last two La Liga games, losing 0-2 and 0-1. With that in mind, I have taken a risky bet for Atletico Madrid To Win To Nil @ 3.

The risk paid off, 2-0 win for Atletico, well done, enjoy your win.

I wonder if Atletico can steal the title from Barca AGAIN.

Its going to be hard with barca having the top 2 players in the world. Neymar has actually better odds of winning the ballon d'or vs ronaldo which is saying something.  Messi is clear fav though looks like a done deal.

Propagandalf: First let me say I still hate you  Wink You're a very good player and I usually run away when I see you  Grin You still eat me (some of my often used names: ARROW/B613/"no name") anyway.

Second: I totally agree with you! I've been thinking about no-names no-colors too, but already it's hard to see who's who when someone with the same color and a lot of blobs gets close or on top of my blobs. But currently I enjoy attacking those teams more than winning...

LOL! I am flattered  Grin


In theory there is nothing wrong with having teams in a game, but only if everyone were in teams, or if players could choose between a single-player mode or team mode. For instance, if it became illegal to team up in the single-player mode, you could ban people if they were proven to be teaming. If there were two game modes, it could remove the teamers' incentive to spoil the single-player mode.


Very hard to stop people helping others in individual mode and there is probably a fine line between helping someone out and creating a team at times.  Would need a very good admin to judge.  Part of the fun is having the power to help or not help people.

It's easy to stop them, just ban them. However, I agree with you that part of the fun is having the power to help or not. With that said I don't think it is necessary to have crackdowns on all kinds of teamwork. I don't mind people helping each other by shooting gears all over the place, but there is one particular move that is extremely unfair: When several players suddenly sacrifice themselves and merge into a huge blob, effectively eating anything in their immediate surroundings. If you think about it, the devs already tried to prevent this by making the mass you shoot out NOT increase the size of other players.

So, if the same players continuously do the team-kamikaze move, they could for instance get a warning and finally a ban. Like you said, a good admin to judge would be necessary, and so video proof to mods will help. If you provide say 10+ video clips showing the same offence (easily recordable within a couple of matches), it is not so hard to judge anymore.


If its completely obvious cheating then yeah no problems.  You'd need to draw up a list of not cheating/cheating and then a list of all grey area cheating which take human judgement to work out.  Would take time to make all the judgements not a fun task.

luckycardz sounds too unprofessional IMO and also poker player love the skill.

Why don't you try to make a clone of Pokerstars?
Something like Bitstars or Bitcoinpokerstars would work out

BitStars is a great name but i think taken? the .co.uk isn't haha.  StarsBTC is open.

Barcelona can have a bad day and loose the match but will be very strange, the normal is that Barcelona wins this match with some goals.

Losing on their own stadium is not possible for barcelona, the worst they can get would be another draw but barcelona has been great in every of their home game this season. That said they still have a lot of potential to draw at the match since enrique possibly be resting some of his player due to their tight schedule ahead
i think luis enrique will not rest some player because barcelona need point to get back position one and granada is weak team. i bet more than 5 goal in this match

Going for a goal prediction might be a better idea, 4-0, 5-0 or 6-0 probably the best ones to pick and could get some decent odds.  Still would worry about a random draw in this game.

Hopefully yall took my tip dam wish i got the bet on.

Valencia away win is the tip for today :p gary neville is going to bring it haha.

Hello friends!
We are discouraged in choosing a domain name for a poker site.

bulletspoker.com -  "Bullets" is a slang poker term for having a pair of Aces in the hole in Texas Hold'em.
tangeir.com - The name of the casino managed by the protagonist of the film by Martin Scorsese "Casino".


I'd probably go with bullets out of those ones, very easy to remember.  Its a bitcoin poker site where people can play on i assume?

Yes, you are right  Smiley

Ok then, well tangier is cool but it should be tangiers plural as i remember it.  Maybe you could just completely different and make up a word domain and build a brand.  Great for google search.

Liverpool is more talented and experienced side than compare it with Exeter so that i have my bet on LIverpool ML i think it will be good for me to make easy money tonight.

I watch the game at the gym and they liverpool played some kids from the youth team in their starting line up.  Surprised exeter didnt win the game after being ahead.  Still im sure they are pleased they get to go back to anfield for a pay day replay.
495  Economy / Gambling / Re: What is your daily bankroll limit? on: January 08, 2016, 10:37:19 PM
-Do you have a separate wallet just for gambling?
-Do you have a daily limit on your bankroll?

I usually have from 0.8BTC to 1BTC in a dedicated electrum wallet and transfer out all my winnings out to my cold wallet and keep it at 1BTC

Looking to hear others bankroll management.

When i used to play poker quite seriously the whole poker bankroll was different from the money i needed in life.  The only method i used was money in the cashier = poker, money withdraw from cashier = life money.  Worked pretty well.  When you have an edge on betting its not such a worry if you play the same stake consistantly.

4 matches ago they had a 2-2 draw vs deportivo. This is the worry.  Actually they have had 4 draws out of the last 6 games wow WTF.

2010

My god you must be rich, i heard about it early but was late to really read up about it and think what it could mean.  Still its great to be in before the late majourity who never have a chance of ROI.
498  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to stay away from gambling? suggestions ? on: January 08, 2016, 10:26:46 PM
Most of the suggestions are stupid.

Just ask yourself what are you trying to achive with gambling.

Most likely you dont have any goal in mind, and you are just clicking buttons like an idiot, to run away from stress or w/e - so find other hobby that helps you relax.

Now if your goal is to make money or get entertained - thats another story

People play because they think they can win easy money.  This is sometimes true which is why it becomes attractive to gamble.  There seems to be 2 very different types of gamblers, those for fun and those who actually try and make money they will use for something else.
499  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Spanish League Prediction Thread (La Liga) on: January 08, 2016, 10:23:58 PM
Barcelona vs Granada i was bit surprised why the odds for Barcelona win is very low @1.02 and i already know Barcelona is strong team in spanish league but doesn't mean Granada will lose with easily

My god with odds that low its probably not worth the bet is it? The biggest risk is that they could draw the game losing probably hardly would ever happen.  Spanish league is so rigged haha.
500  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your average bet per game? on: January 06, 2016, 01:26:37 PM
Do you bet big like 1 BTC in hope to win 50 BTC with a huge risk or do you do small bets?

Bet big to win big? Or bet small over a long time to be safer?

Bet for fun dude and betting 1 BTC or something would cause me stress or going broke.  I would consider betting bigger if i could become an expert sports bettor or if im playing poker i woud buy in for that size amount.
