Call yourself to order whenever you're gambling and having nothing to tell concerning your experience in what you do, have a time to run a check on the kind of gambling lifestyle you've had in couple of times, access yourself on a grade level to see if you're proud about what you're doing or not, also check if there's need for an improvement to be implemented, consider the benefits it has served you in many ways and that which you may have lost at the same cause and weigh them all together, if you think you're going too far already, then try to apply wisdom and gamble moderately.

Yes, gambling is not an isolated activity in life, it is part of your habits and life and should be integrated into your lifestyle, the people you are with and you job or occupation if you have any. This context can be a help in putting gambling into perspective and use it properly and only while it is fun. Just remember, see around you and will get a better hold on your behavious.

It should be like that and it is already like that for the most of us who are well responsible of our selves. It was only the addicted gamblers are the ones who do it wrongly or the opposite way. As an addict, your life will mostly revolve in one activity, and you are literally isolating your self from the public most especially if your addiction is online gambling.

I have a partner and I integrate or share gambling to her. For some maybe they need to be careful and make sure that the person is already in to gambling. I only find it wrong when you say we need to integrate gambling with our occupation as it will only affect our performances and there is a bigger chance that we can lose our job.

The popularity of sport will depends on your environment since what mostly introduce or what you is most provably the sports would provably catch your interest.

Yeah you are correct, the popularity of sports totally depends on country or environment because people tend to focus more on the kind of sports they normally see and participate all there environment, for example were I come from horse racing does not attract people because it tend to be participated by the only people who has money and also with the belief that horse racing is risky that someone could easily get injured on the process.

So the dominant sports in my environment is soccer because of it popularity and it doesn't take much to start playing football, so however people tend to love more on the kind of sports they can even do themselves.

Not really applicable for some. Me for example. Cock fighting and basketball are very popular here but I don't know on why I'm not hook on them just like the majority of my country men?

I also have a personality that don't follow the mainstream. Maybe that contributes to that. IDK if the OP is like me or he is simply living on a country where horse racing isn't as popular as the others. Another reason is maybe it was restricted there? As some animal sports like cock fighting are also illegal on most places/countries.

People on your country are too sensitive. They aren't the ones who will ride the horse anyway in terms of betting and horse players are professional to get injured easily. The horses that they ride, the tracks, etc.. are also being checked to ensure that everything will run smoothly. And it is like any other sport in the betting scene where a small amount of money is acceptable.

We utilize them differently from what you have said but in a way that we can attain anonymity. Online casino can also give convenience. We can play them anywhere. Online/crypto casino doesn't differ to offline casino when it comes to luck. As usual, the games are still kinda rigged. When it comes to odds, each games also have a separate of it. As usual, high odds means it's hard to win on them but low odds are equals to high chances of winning.

If you have a decent bankroll, you can bet significant amounts in higher chance games to earn money easily/quickly but if your goal is only to play for fun, it will be better to allocate smaller amounts and play on lower chance games. Games are also the same. There are skill type of games like poker and sports betting and then there are luck-based games like dice and slots.

Your first mistake was to think that you could conquer the market without knowledge and experience, you didn't bother learning about trading first and entered the market thinking that you know everything and it's very easy to get profit in this market, and you didn't even learn from your mistakes because you should have started learning after losing the first investment instead of investing again with limited knowledge.

Your second mistake was to FOMO and buy a coin or token that has already gained significant value and you still bought that token thinking that you will get some profits and exit the market as soon as possible, everyone with less knowledge and a greedy mindset think that way and eventually lose money. FOMO means Fear Of Missing Out, which means that you panic that you have missed out on profits and then you buy that asset quickly to enter the league of those who are profiting from it but you are actually late and the party is already over.

Theoretically crypto currencies would be the perfect currency to be the next global reserve currency. No country alone would have full control over it and the decentralization aspect would remove a lot of political pressure. Unfortunately we are not living in a perfect world and I don't see any chance at the moment for cryptos to become the new global reserve currency.

For us, obviously yes but for them? No way. Being decentralized is actually the thing that they hate the most. How can they do their manipulations this time? There are now global reserves that they primarily used. I am fine with that already and cryptos being legalized by them is already a big thing for me. Maybe it is more possible for them to make it as a legal tender than making it as a global reserve, but that is even better. What more can we ask for?

There might be support from smaller countries that don't see a chance for their local currencies to have any impact, or that is fluctuating too much and scares investors away due to the high volatility.

But don't forget that cryptocurrencies are also high in volatility, although it's much better because their supply is only limited and there is always a chance for their value to recover than some local currencies out there.

Best practice is to never go against your wishes, use the money you can afford for gambling, don't be too greedy for high win, learn to minimize risk, calm down and be patient with hile gambling and don't always push too forward being overconfidence whenever you are gambling, some people do bet because of the odds provided even though they aren't good at that particular sport betting, but because of the odd, they got attracted to giving a try, some losses were just from our personal gambling weakness.

It's obviously not a wise idea to bet on sports you don't know anything about even if you see that the odds are in the favor of the side you choose. Still, the results can always go against you because there can be things that you must know about the sport or the teams before you place your bet like maybe a player that has a big influence on the overall team isn't playing in that particular game. The odds makers didn't consider that fact when deciding the odds.

That's why, it's important for a sports bettor to have complete knowledge about a sport before they start making bets on it, and one should also know the teams and the players playing on that day so that they don't make a wrong choice and lose. It isn't a problem if the bet amount is low but if you are betting big, you will need to be careful with everything.

Let's not deceive ourselves, the government knows very well that they can not stop it entirely since all the world government can not agree on this term, however, they are playing smart with us, most of this guys are buying bitcoins in the secret as they create FUD in the Crypto space so that they can have more of bitcoins on their wallet. It is high time we pay by less attention to the trick.
Thanks to the country that has already accepted bitcoins as a legal tender, we hope to see more countries follow suit as the wickedness to keep the world in poverty is getting rid off

I actually somehow agree with the fact that the people who are openly opposing Bitcoin might actually be buying in secret but just can't let everyone know about it but they obviously see the potential that it has and they know that their investments will surely earn them a lot of money in the future. So they might be opposing the idea in the public, but they must be adopters themselves as well, this is mostly about politicians and government officials.

It's obviously true that they can't actually stop Bitcoin from existing no matter what they do, all they can do is ban its usage and make the adoption lose pace but that isn't going to stop the movement and Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies will keep growing over time even if the pace gets slower that wouldn't stop the overall growth in the long-term.

Trading really depends on experience. As trading is unpredictable it may not be possible to earn the amount you mentioned by trading daily. As there is profit loss in trading then you may face loss. But it may happen that you can earn more than the amount mentioned. There's really no way to say for sure.I personally like spot trading and sport trading can earn good amount of profit.But if the capital is more, the amount of profit is also more.

And don't forget luck because even a high skilled trader can't have a 100 percent winning rate. That is because luck isn't permanent. If the amount we set is too much for our capital, we may not achieved it most of the times but it is still possible to earn excessive amount sometimes when our luck kicks in.

Spot trading is the very basic of trading and like you many people prefer it as it was also easy to initiate and less risky than other advance types or variations of trading. Being less risky doesn't mean the profits we can get are only minimal and so what if it's only minimal? As long as we can consistently make it and save it, they can still grow huge.

I’m still confused what’s their main purpose but they are the one who partner with the casino to lure VIP players in the form luxurious offer such as accommodation and travel trips just to make them play in the casino. In return, they will get profit sharing on the total amount spend by their recruits

What's the confusion about? You said it yourself, they do that so that they can earn some money from the casinos because they are referring VIP players to them, that's they main purpose.

Quote from: AbuBhakar on October 14, 2023, 04:17:56 PM

I’m just thinking if there’s still some casino offers this type of luxurious reward to their players aside from rakebacks.

I am not sure what you are expecting but yes, casinos do have affiliate programs where a user can bring players to them and they will pay a percentage of what their referrals have wagered and I think it's basically the same thing that you described in the beginning. Other than that, I don't know if they actually offer any other thing to the player unless they are VIP themselves which then makes them eligible for the VIP perks and benefits but that's a different thing.

Gambling is like an addiction, Even for those who are not addicted to gambling, leaving gambling for them too is a painful experience and requires a lot of dedication and self commitment.

You gamble and you lose and you do not gamble and still feel the stress of not playing gambling, how strange it is. For those, who want to quit gambling for a little while so as to overcome their bad luck period, it may be good if they are still allowed to gamble a few games daily but with a very limited amount of money. This way they won't feel stressed that they are not gambling.

I'm not

If I want to stop gamble, I can easily do that and will not feel any pain to leave from gambling.

If you always think you must gamble all of your day, then it means you should find a new activity because you're have too much free time. When you have a lot activities, you will not think about gambling anymore.

In the world we are living in, one can only have too much free time if they are lazy and don't have a job basically, because if you are working, you will probably not have a lot of free time since you will work about 8 to 9 hours a day, and the rest of the time you will probably do something that releases stress, now that activity can be gambling but since you don't really have a lot of time, you won't be spending a lot of money on it and you will gamble just for fun.

Those who have a lot of free time are probably jobless and I wonder how they can gamble in their free time since they don't have an income to use for that. You can only be able to do something that involves money if you have money and to have money, you need to have a source of income.

I'd like to share my experience with you all. Even though I'm not currently employed, I went through a phase of gambling while I was working in the past, and the outcome wasn't positive. It affected my job performance because, as you may know, when you lose, you tend to dwell on your losses and constantly think about strategies to win. When we talk about work, it usually means we're not particularly wealthy, and imagine what happens when we gamble money we can't afford to lose, especially when we're not earning much.

Let me tell you, the feeling is far from pleasant. It leads to a decline in your work performance, which can have significant consequences since that's your primary source of income. It might be manageable if you're winning, but the harsh reality is often quite the opposite. Even when we do win, we tend to spend most of our winnings, so we don't treat it as business money. This leaves us in a precarious situation when we lose because the money we initially budgeted for our families gets diverted to cover unexpected gambling-related expenses.

I'd like to hear from those of you who have experienced this or are still dealing with it. Please share your testimonies.

Yeah, I don't think anything positive could come from gambling while working.

Your attention will be focused on the wrong things, and losing money, which is the most likely scenario, will simply compound the negatives feelings.

It will probably end up in the gambler losing their money and their job eventually.

Losing the job is a more serious consequence of this action because getting another job won't be easy. When you leave your job or get fired, it becomes difficult to get a new job because having a recommendation letter with good words about you can actually make other companies think about recruiting you, but when your recommendation letter says that you are not reliable since you used to gamble during working hours and used to waste a lot of time on that, the next companies will barely think of hiring you.

So, one should think about it more critically than they are right now if they are actually gambling at work because that's not a very good idea. Apart from the fact that you might lose your money, you can lose your job and along with your job, your reputation as well when people come to know that you've lost your job because of your gambling addiction.

Lost in the whirlwind world of day trading? It often feels like a maze with big folks and their flashy tools, leaving us hoping for a stroke of luck. Imagine ditching the tricky charts for a simple, real coin flip, person vs person, with a fair 50/50 chance. No gimmicks, no house edge, just a clear, honest game.

What’s your take? Does day trading seem more of a gamble compared to a straight-up coin flip

When I first read your title, I thought you meant flip trading, where you buy low and sell it quickly in a short period of time as soon as the price is higher instead of holding it for long term. But it looks like you are talking about games like coin flipping. Then in this case, the bigger gambling is flipping a coin. It totally depends on your luck and requires no skill. You have no control over your profit/loss. On other hand, flipping requires you to understand the market and some skills to execute the trades properly. Both has risks associated, but the risks with trading is much lesser than that of gambling with a coin.

Indeed, if trading is largely about skill and understanding the market, then why do many traders struggle to consistently outperform the market average? Isn't that indicative of an element of unpredictability and chance, much like gambling?

There is unpredictability in the cryptocurrency market, there is no doubt of that, but that doesn't really make it just like gambling where there is no chart, there are no movement patterns, there is no rule of supply and demand, and there is definitely no indicator that gives you a general idea of where the market might move next. That's why, despite the market being highly unpredictable at times, one can still be able to make more successful trades than failed ones if one studies the market very well.

So, when we talk about gambling, we know that there is nothing like knowledge or experience or anything that can give a person any idea about what the outcome of the next bet can be, that can be said about sports betting but it's again different than gambling games because sports betting also requires knowledge and experience from bettors.

The money that the addicted person will use for their gambling activities can be used for therapy sessions, but that's not the point. I think if an addict acknowledges the fact that they are actually facing problems in their life and they want to stop gambling completely and are ready to cooperate in any way possible, a close friend or a family member can easily help them get out of the addiction by trying and keeping them away from gambling and gambling platforms.

One can find activities that the addict used to like before they got addicted to gambling and they can get them to start doing those things. It can be a game, a sport, going out, or anything in general that will divert their mind from gambling toward those things and they will gradually start forgetting about the gambling urge they used to have.

Mbappe definitely looked like he was doing alright, he is still a great player after all. A lot of us forget how good he is because of the drama he has with PSG, that prevents people to realize his talent level but the main reason why he is capable of creating that much drama is mainly because he is a good player. If he wasn't a great one, then team would have let him go long time ago, but they kept him because he is doing so great and there is nothing wrong with that, it has been a great thing for them for a long time.

All in all I would say that it is a good thing that he can play for the national team and healthy, because it makes people remember how good he is in a scenario that is not connected to PSG and any drama and helps his team.

Ronaldo was filmed saying "bismillah" while taking the penalty at Portugal as well. Saudi Arabia is really rubbing off on him and he seems to be enjoying life there, he scored goals as well for the national team and I am sure that when he comes back he will keep scoring again for his team as well.

The thing is, dude is very very expensive for them, but he is also bringing success and fame to them as well, he was a player that was bigger than the club when he came in and I am sure that he is still like that, I mean if you look at it from some personal perspective. That is something to care about and think about when making a transfer. Him being basically a spokesperson for the entire league? That wasn't even assumed and it is going that way very easily at this point.

Though it's true that one needs to take at least some amount of risk in order to gain something because as they say, there is no gain without risk. However, I believe venturing into the uncertainty and taking calculated risks are contradictive sentences because one cannot take calculated risks when they are venturing into the uncertainty, and when you venture into the uncertainty, that means that the risks you are about to take are also uncertain so there can't be any calculation in that sense.

Taking trading as an example, a calculated risk would be investing in a cryptocurrency that you know has been performing pretty well for quite some time and it is now lower than usual, when you invest in that, you are risking your money but it's calculated since you know there are higher chances of it giving you profit. On the other hand, if you buy a cryptocurrency that has just been launched and there is no history for it, and all you are risking your money on is the trust you have in the project and that's it, now that is what we can call venturing into the uncertainty and there is basically no way you can calculate the amount of risk in this case.

Based on the definition of Cross Addiction given by you in your thread, what your friend's friend did isn't really cross-addiction in its full sense because when we talk about cross-addiction, we talk about leaving one thing and moving to another thing that almost has the same effects and outcomes as the first one, but what the guy did is completely different and I would never consider that being a bad thing if you are leaving addiction for just a video game.

There is a very big difference between video game addiction and gambling addiction. If I'm a gambling addict, spending thousands of dollars on my gambling activities, not having any self-control at all, and then I decide to start playing a video game and stop gambling completely now I'm not wasting a lot of money on it, I would call that a win and not cross-addiction or anything, and even if it's cross-addiction, if the effects are not too severe, I'm completely okay with it.

All gambling of any kind does rely on luck, but if you feel that gambling is disrupting the economy enough, you should stop slowly and reduce it because it is true that discipline will not give you a win either, but that is if the gambler aims to win, except for those who consider gambling as entertainment, I think it doesn't matter. to continue playing as long as it is under proper control.

Well, luck does play its role, but there are some that aren't totally dependent on luck like sports betting. I know that one won't win even in sports betting if they are extremely unlucky but it mostly requires some knowledge and experience from the bettor. It's true that one needs to either leave or reduce their gambling activities if they know it's starting to affect their personal life negatively.

Quote from: piebeyb on October 13, 2023, 06:59:46 AM

You don't need a strategy as long as you can manage your betting budget and gambling budget well then everything will be safe, you don't need to stay away from it if you are still gambling for fun but if you are gambling with the aim of winning and money, you should reduce it slowly and stay away from it because it won't end well in the end if gambling only hopes for money. Always consider winning as a bonus, not the main goal. It is better

There are no strategies to be applied within the games that can save someone from losses or make them win, all the strategies created by humans will eventually fail even if they seem like they are working initially. So, someone should obviously not believe that they will be successful in gambling if they apply some strategy, it's better if someone stays disciplined and gambles responsibly.

People are sleeping on Leipzig, they may not look like they are at the top but they usually do not start the season that well and end a lot better, if they could stay within couple points of the leader, then they could end the season better like they usually do and could fight for a top spot.

I am not saying they will win the league, because I do believe that Bayern is still the best, and by the looks of it leverkusen will do wonders and probably finish high up there as well, but Dortmund is not doing that well so in a world that is ideal for Leipzig, if Leverkusen gets worse, Leipzig could finish second as well. Nobody talks about it because they do not look that high right but that is not really out of question at this point.

The forum is probably the best source of information regarding any service which deals with cryptocurrencies, unfortunately not many people know about it and instead they prefer to try to find reliable information out on the wild on the internet.

This forum is very useful for everyone who has joined as a member here especially for the crypto industry and also online gambling on cryptocurrency basis.

When they say the forum has been useful for members regarding the gambling aspect I am one of such many persons ever since I joined the forum I don't use online crypto casinos that are not found in the forum and more so if they don't have an ANN thread of theirs which should explain alot about them for new users understanding and also make for old users to express their experiences overtime with the casino in form of reviews.
A bunch of online casino paid reviews are littered all over the internet that if a gambler is not watchful they might constantly be losing their funds to scam casinos.

I wouldn't say that your approach is not good of only using casino platforms that are available on the forum because there are a lot of people who do that and they have the belief that any gambling service provider that isn't available on the forum isn't trusted but that isn't entirely accurate because there are a lot of trusted and reputable casino platforms that also accept cryptocurrencies but they don't have an ANN or announcement thread in the forum.

Also, there are a lot of scam casinos that might have ANNs here and might even be running signature campaigns, take 1xbit as an example. So, the fact that a casino is available on the forum is trusted isn't always true because there can be trusted casinos outside the forum and there can be scam casinos within the forum. That's why it's important for everyone to do their due diligence before getting involved with any platform.
