Ratings can be biased because they are based on individual experiences, and we never know the credibility of the rater. The poster above is right; just check their ANN thread. If you don't see any bad feedback and the thread is active with forum members of higher ranks sharing their feedback and participating in discussions, that's an indication that they are a reputable gambling site.
In addition, casino ratings can be paid so that the casino will look credible to the eyes of the gamblers. So if you want legit and not fake ratings, visit their ANN thread so you will know how most of the gamblers have experienced playing in that certain casino. And if this casino is still credible and reputable up to these days as some ratings might be too old for us to believe.
1102  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Flip or Trade? What’s The Bigger Gamble? on: September 25, 2023, 02:36:12 PM
What’s your take? Does day trading seem more of a gamble compared to a straight-up coin flip
Coin flip has a defined winning chance rate while day trading has a dynamic winning chance rate depending on how good you are on trading. So I say trading is more on gambling if you don’t know what you are doing such us newbies buying bunch of random shitcoins without doing research first.

On trading, you have a chance to improve your winning probability while gambling is purely relying on luck since you can’t improve the outcome no matter how good you are.
Well, I can’t say that day trading will fall as a gambling simply because you don’t rely on pure luck as you have your skills and winning strategies that will keep you an edge over the market. But coin flip will always be gambling as it is because the chance to win is very low while giving a higher advantage on the house itself. The only way day trading becomes gambling is when you day trade knowing the fact that you’re not a reliable trader. You only trade because your peers are telling you to do so, clearly it’s a form of gambling instead.
1103  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: As a gambler do you have a potential winning amount limit? on: September 24, 2023, 11:59:14 PM
~ My main focus on this thread is in this question: as a gambler do you place your bet according to the weight of your financial need or you're always okay with whatever amount that comes out as potential win no matter how small amount?


First and foremost, I come to casinos to satisfy my need for excitement. If I was interested in money I would invest that money and enjoy the interest on the deposit. There is no way to predict how my gaming session will end, but I always try to finish the game at the moment when my deposit is higher than the starting deposit. If I can not win, then by and large I do not care so much whether I lose all the money I put in the casino or withdraw some of it for the next game session.
Investing is definitely the best option if you want to maximize your profits. However, gambling on one side is not that bad, as long as you entertain yourself and you get to win at some point, then that's fair enough. But it's inevitable that some gamblers see gambling as a do or die. Or they won't bet at all if the prize is not impressive for them. For me, I don't usually bet looking for the jackpot prize, whatever I'm going to win that's good enough as long as I got to win consistently.
1104  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do You Trust RNGs (Random Number Generators) in Casinos? on: September 24, 2023, 11:30:18 PM
Yes I trust RNGs, but only in big gambling providers e.g. Pragmatic Play, Play 'N' Go, Microgaming and NetEnt. This is because we have no way to verify our bet, all we can do is trust the providers.

If someone can't trust RNGs, then the choice is avoid slots and only gamble in own casino's games, you can verify your bet.

If you still not trust both of them, you can gamble in sport bookie.

However if you still think sport is rigged, never talk about gambling anymore and go away from this place.
Right. It's useless to gamble if we resort into believing that these RGNs are rigged. If that is the case, we will never see ourselves winning some decent amount at some point. However, probably for those fake and scam casinos, there's no way we can trust those RGNs but for big and famous casinos, either we need to trust them or we just have to avoid gambling at all cost.
1105  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling all about luck? on: September 24, 2023, 10:56:54 PM
In my opinion making cash from gambling is not a good option and the statistical probability that you will win every game at every casino is very low. I think winning or losing every game is completely in your head, so your individual tricks are not there. However, we all have some kind of luck so we should strive for what is possible for us.
Gambling is mostly associated with luck, but for you to win you should also have knowledge and working strategies that will eventually attract your luck and enable you to make profits. At some point, skills are also essential in gambling most especially for sports betting, aside from luck that one should always have. However, we can't force the universe to make us lucky the whole time we are into gambling. That's why some resort into committing a lot of losses before they gain luck and eventually ends profitable.
1106  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How will you feel if it happens to you just like this? on: September 24, 2023, 10:32:22 PM
I can still relate to this even if I just gamble for fun because there are times that you regret not betting like there are games that my friends asked me to bet on and I tried to analyze that team and it has a huge percentage of winning but the problem is that I didn't bet because my salary is still not in and my extra money is intended for the food at that time so after the game I regretted not to risk that money I have and I would have gotten money on it but I am the kind of person that easily moves on so I just enjoyed myself and still I can sleep well at night.

Just move on if you regret not betting because you are only the one who struggles and still it is useless to feel that regret for a few days as you cannot take back the time that you can bet.
True. There's no time machine in gambling so it's useless to stay regretting when you could have move on and try another luck at it's right timing. Although this is not new anymore to me because I have been dealing this especially in my newbies days but I realized that you cannot let the world keeps on favoring you. Sometimes you also need to lose and minimize those impulsive decisions that you will get easily carried away. If you can't win in your present bets, probably there's more of opportunities waiting ahead so never regret if you didn't get to win this time.
1107  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you manage your money on gambling sites. on: September 24, 2023, 01:51:22 PM
It’s obvious that they do it for show off since they are trying to convince their audience about their winning bets. Maybe after screen shot, they eventually withdraw their balance or most likely they will use those amount to make another bet. But if you are a professional gambler, you will never leave a huge balance in any gambling site. That’s too risky on your part, as you can lose that amount anytime when the site becomes instantly inaccessible due to site problems that suddenly arise.
1108  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are some good, trusty casinos that support crypto as payment? on: September 24, 2023, 12:51:47 PM
I think the simpler way to find that good casino of your choice is to look at the signatures on the forum, I believe that every casino that is advertising their self through the forum signature are all crypto casinos, so you can make your choice there.

I decided to suggest this because, currently, there are really alot of great crypto casinos, they are several and this makes it impossible to mention one and leave the other, doesn't feel right with me, so picking one from the signature will definitely be the best idea, and right now, I don't think there is any gambling casino to avoid that is currently running a signature on the forum, every casino running signature ads on the forum are all trusted.
I share the same opinion. It’s hard to mention those reputable crypto casinos without leaving the other so its best you do your own research in the forum. Those who have been running long signature campaigns might be of your interest as they become more reputable while they stay longer in the market. Also, try to look on the casinos mentioned above as they can be highly reliable as well and just fit in yourself where you think you can be more comfortable to gamble with.
1109  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: No KYC vs KYC enabled casinos (Facts you need to know) on: September 24, 2023, 11:55:48 AM
The people have already made their choice, and it's clear they prefer a KYC casino over a non-KYC casino. I believe it's more appropriate to refer to it as 'decentralized gambling' because some casinos claim to be non-KYC but are still regulated. It's important to question the longevity of such claims. When a casino is regulated, it's obligated to adhere to the implementing rules set by regulators, including KYC compliance. So, it's wise not to trust those that claim to be non-KYC casinos.
Exactly. Those who claimed as non-KYC casinos are most of the time only here to deceive us with its name, but in reality they are still regulated and should follow the rules of those who regulate them. So if you want to play on casinos safely and securely, just chose those who are clearly regulated casinos. Even if KYC is compulsory, but it’s only for our own security and to avoid cases of fraudulence on part of the casinos.
1110  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling game is not good and everyone should stay away from it on: September 23, 2023, 10:28:21 PM
If you think you are weak and might easily fall on the trap of gambling, then it’s the best decision to avoid it and not even start gambling in the first place. Otherwise, you will only live with regrets because you become a gambling addict and now things have been so hard for you to even recover. However, gambling may be productive and profitable for those who can put limits to theirselves. And for those who only gamble just to find pleasure in their games, and not really gambling to make more money and earn a living.
1111  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Best Practices for Staying Safe When Gambling with Cryptocurrency on: September 22, 2023, 11:25:56 PM
I would add one more important thing, which is that you should not gamble with money for which you do not have a valid proof of origin - because I recently read a case where a user won almost $4 million with a deposit of $100k, and now the casino refuses to pay him win because he still hasn't been able to show them where the money he gambled with came from.
The casino should have verify it at the start and not only when the bettor is already at it's winning stage. Probably the casino has also its fault. But we can't force the casino to pay the winning amount especially if they found out that the bettor is a money launderer. He might be even banned instead.
1112  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Warning] Don't share your casino account! on: September 22, 2023, 10:39:49 PM
Definitely not. Thanks for the reminder anyway. That is still my privacy so there’s no reason that I will disclose it to others. As long as there’s KYC attached in it, once you share it to others so it’s like you’re allowing them to do harm to your account, and worst to your own identity as it might be easier for them to do that since they have access on your account. But I also believe that some would still fall for this especially that the other party will promise you an irresistible amount.
1113  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Importance of Gambling to the society on: September 22, 2023, 09:44:35 AM
For me gambling was more about fun, than something serious. I think the role of gambling in society is another source of entertainment, yet only individuals only have serious life changing problems with gambling. Remove gambling from society, and we would get a huge number of people who wont know how to relax, to release steam. I am not talking about addicted people right now. Remove gambling, and a lot of people wont know what to do. Who knows what those people could do during free time. Who knows what bad things some people would do, when they can be busy gambling instead.

If the society is to cancel gambling today, there are going to be lots of jobless people without hope and future. I understand that even a gambler hate to see people say gambling is addictive but with time, I realizes that is true because been addicted to something doesn't mean you become irresponsible, you can be addicted to pressing your phone each time you wake up from the bed in the morning, does that affect? Maybe individual difference answers will be different but to me, there is none and this is same to gambling. With addiction, people see gambling as means to make some cool cash any day luck shines on you.

If gambling doesn't exist tomorrow, there is going to be a decline in sport activity, some people will not have something that will motivate them again because gambling and sports are mutually inclusive. Don't be surprised if the world experience increased in alcohol in take because may people take their time to gamble and have fun instead of alcohol consumptions.
Both drinking alcohol  and gambling can be addictive, but the only difference is that drinking does not make you profitable at all unlike what gambling does especially to lucky gamblers. That is why gambling creates more opportunities to make money, but only for those who really know how to manage their gambling habits and expense. Also, gambling can be a good source for socialization wherein you can go out from your comfort zone and develop new skills that pertains to gambling. However, it’s still important to gamble with caution as that will keep you safe from the danger in gambling.
1114  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Experience for new and old gambler? on: September 22, 2023, 07:41:42 AM
Uhhhh, I feel this ain't even about who started off first, this is about who's been more regular on this shit.... The other fellow might have stacked his houses and cars whatever,.. but, if this new dude becomes more consistent on staking 'em cash and coins, mahn, the possibilities of becoming an addict is damn,..100%
Any habit that evolves into an addiction has been nursed steadily with consistency - so how much you've spent and how long you've been gambling doesn't constitute to anything there.

Sandra 🧑‍🦰
Gambling addiction becomes harder to break when most of your time are into gambling. So I agree that this is not about who gamble first but who gamble most often and spend all his time and money into betting. With that, it clearly shows that you are no longer in control of yourself since you fall into the trap of gambling and you chose to rely more on luck to earn a living than to find a real job that will help you in your daily survival.
1115  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are no KYC casinos taking risks? on: September 21, 2023, 10:46:04 PM
Fraud cases are becoming a real problem for gambling industry, from schemes like bonus hunting, account farming, account hijacks and illicit chargebacks on the rise I believe that many new casinos aren't prepared for the menace ahead.

Some casinos still believe that not asking for KYC is cool, but it's actually not, I see casinos with no kyc as a red flag because you can't run your business this way without getting into trouble with regulators.

Casinos neglect identity check but little did they know that they can be fined for it, if fraud cases arise from your casino and it's been investigated, your business is going away soon or you pay up for fine. One, for failing to screen customers using the KYC process, two, for possible running of unregistered casino.

Do you think your casino can be regulated without the AML policy? The requirements says it's all, so is it possible that those casinos doing their no KYC stuffs are not even registered? 
They're probably registered but they're not following the rules intended for casinos. With that, the gamblers will be put at a high risk. KYC should be made compulsory so that if there will be unpredicted money laundering at the middle of gambling, the casino will immediately identify who is at fault, otherwise if they fail to do that, the regulators or the people in authorities might put the casino subject for investigation.
1116  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When Gamblers Fail to Read a Casino's Terms and Conditions on: September 21, 2023, 09:59:51 PM
That's when wrong accusations start to arise. Perhaps because of laziness or they are just greedy to jump into gambling. And when things did not work according to their plan, that's when they start accusing the casino for not being fair on their players or users. That's the reason why some got banned in a certain casino, or it's just that when people are in the losing end, they start to put the blame on the casino because their games or rigged or worst they accuse the casino as a scammer.
1117  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Betting significant amount on: September 21, 2023, 03:14:19 PM

If you seek out to satisfy your thrills, it's always satisfying to go all in the remaining bankroll in one bet max out. The win will be satisfying especially when it's the last one after the losing streak when you apply the martingale. Yep, I have done this and sometimes regret comes after losing it all.

I couldn't remember how many times I tried this but it always lost it all. Sometimes I win but the next few hours, the house takes it all back.
I am also doing the same thing, betting all in with my remaining bankroll but most of the time, I end up not being satisfied because I terribly used up all of its remaining amount. However, probably once or twice, I end up winning a huge bet but since greed is always present in a gambler, all my profits have gotten back to the house. This has always happened to me, but until now I’m still not learning from it and still continue to bet all in.
1118  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When the fun stops on: September 20, 2023, 10:58:42 PM
As long as you are making a good amount in gambling, I believe you are also being entertained. But when you experience consistent losing, that's when the fun stops. Instead, you no longer experience the fun because you are pressured to recover your losses and win more profits. That is the reason why at some point, gamblers lost the real essence of gambling and just gamble to earn a living. When the time comes that you will find yourself uncontrollable, that's where gambling addiction follows.
1119  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is the drive that makes women go into gambling? on: September 20, 2023, 10:36:42 PM
I think for many women some of the few reasons they go into gambling, is that gambling provides them with the opportunity to be sociable and enjoy time with friends and also use it to escape boredom loneliness or even stress, excitement is also part of the reasons why women goes into gambling the sense of winning creates an additional anticipation of something bigger having the spotlight on you as a winner can make you feel good even for a brief moment. This has eventually turn into frequent trips or long session in gambling.
People goes to gamble for main reason, that is to earn money and increase their profits. Even women would see it as their first goal. Socializing and making new friends are just some of the little factors that make them excited to gamble. But I don't think married women are still capable of doing this. Enough for them to see their men gambling, and just consider theirselves as home buddy while taking care of their kids.
1120  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Never gamble in front of your kids. on: September 20, 2023, 01:34:09 PM
Kids are certainly keen observant on whatever they see on their environment. That is why as parents, we should be more vigilant not to let them see the things that will ruin their future, most particularly with gambling. Never expose them about money and betting, as they will immediately think that it can also be good for them since you are making good profit from it. And as much as possible, we should make them understand that kids are not supposed to make profits, it’s only for responsible adults, but give their full attention on their studies as education could be a lifetime wealth that cannot steal from them.
