It makes my life more fun
Haha seriously, i am gambling not like "tipster" who targeted profit and become crazy when lose haha
The pleasure even make you crazy like this. if a normal person, they chose not to do such madness. Cheesy
The thing is we are normal people before we start gambling, it is only in the middle of our gambling session when we abruptly change our decision making because of the emotions that is playing inside us, as normal people it is also normal that we don't want to lose in gambling that is why sometimes we cannot accept defeat.

I am prefer to gamble sports game
When gamble we exactly now what match and team we choose, also easy to get odds 1.5 and if we win it means we get 50%
If i use it for invest it will long time to get profit
Yes i pretty much agree with you that gambling in sports or we can say sports betting is a good option than gambling in dice sites or any other type of gambling.Also we dont depend on any third party,where as in some investments we have to.
But for some one who has good amount of money and also the knowledge in it,then investing is good also.
Investing in a gambling sites does not really required more knowledge than gambling alone. The fact that the industry is so profitable, it is already guaranteed that your investment will profit in the long run, we just need a little research on the site we are investing may it new or long time running already.
1463  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Losing investment on Gambling sites on: August 04, 2016, 06:48:55 AM
One big thing you should worry when investing in casino is fake winnings. Owners of casino can just pose as players to steal investors funds. They can either make a big win (a huge chunk of a bankroll at once) or just make small fake wins each month, keeping you in profit, but less than you deserve.

Invest only in gambling sites with perfect reputation.

Yeah after the recent Cs Go gambling site scandals the same could be the case in bitcoin casinos. Owner of these sites could just play themselfes to take money out of the sites and all investors would need to cover it.

Just make sure the site is actively used before investing it.

Yeah, not only gambling sites, also different sites are fake, so i suggest whenever we want to invest so firstly you should have the satisfaction about sites than invest it, i never say that all sites are fake but mostly are fake and some sites are really good sites and they are giving very good paying.  But in gambling, i think more opportunities are here to earn the profit.   
It is easy to spot a fake site because the offers are too good to be true like HYIP, and PONZIs as they called it. However, in gambling site there are still scam site but there are more legitimate site so you need to consider in your investment the factor that before you put your money make sure the site is operating in a longer time already.
1464  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling should be considered as a Sickness!! on: August 04, 2016, 06:39:40 AM
Looked a title this thread make me laugh, the OP is too serious about gambling. Gambling is just for fun no more and it is not sickness, the problem is depend on how we manage money and risk. It is just game.

Gambling becomes a sickness only for those who take it too seriously and wants to earn profits with it everyday, and while trying to earn profits with gambling they lose all their money and then they start calling it a sickness.
Should if wanna earn profits every days from gambling, we should have website of gambling our self and we can take the fees from it. It will more profitable than play gambling.
Well, that is easier than done mate, you have no idea how much does it need to raise in order for you have your own casino. If you do not have a considerable amount of money you cannot make a successful casino, you will only live in the level as a gambler so we should be very careful to last the game.
1465  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much can you earn with gambling? on: August 04, 2016, 06:30:52 AM
From my experience only people who play for fun win occasionally.

Strategy? There is no guaranteed strategy to earn with gambling.

All strategies work until they don't.
Because the house always do adjustment every time they found a certain gambler or a system is working not in their favor, that is how wise they are as they are serious with their business, therefore for a gambler, we should follow the behavior of the owners towards gambling, we should also learn how to make adjustments.
1466  Economy / Economics / Re: How many Bitcoin do you have saved? on: August 04, 2016, 06:23:20 AM
only about 0.4BTC, and I use to trade in order to grow and can be saved for the future, so I have some savings in the bank other than that I can use when needed.
0.4 BTC for me is a small amount if you are talking of a long term investment, our savings in bitcoins should not only be limited in one time saving, we can always make a way to save regularly if we cannot do it one time and that would help to minimize the burden in savings and to discipline our self with that practice.
1467  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you were rich, would you still gamble? on: August 04, 2016, 06:20:38 AM
i think i will still gamble if i were rich because i have a lot of money and come to think of it that i can win more but the important thing is you need to control your self from spending a lot of money. just be observer and make it just for fun, not for seriously like loosing all your money or worst, maybe your properties and investment? well no thank you.
There is no problem in your side to gamble because when you are rich you have the liberty to do whatever makes you happy. To be rich is a privilege and that privilege should be properly use and we have to be careful in gambling as rich people have so much to lose than the poor people in gambling.
If you were rich and want to keep gambling sure the risk you will take will bigger.
And actually a rich gambler is the only one who really enjoy and have fun in gambling.
People such us will never feel it because we always need money.

Yeah, they gamble only with pure fun. They don't matter if they lose as they are rich and losing is not a big deal to them. Unlike us we gamble with the desire of going home with big amounts. We are jealous to others that they have this and that. We are not contented on something we have. So we gamble hoping that we can also what others have that we don't.
Well, it happens mate, especially when you are not living a comfortable life, you always seek for money and since gambling gives a good reward we think that we can win in gambling and achieve our dreams in life but in reality gambling will make our current situation worst, so we should have a limitation in gambling.
1468  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: August 04, 2016, 06:12:37 AM
Is it better to save money in bank or invest it online, in real estate or maybe gold?
Money should work for you. This means it would be right to buy gold at a part of the money and invest in real estate. Then come and savings will remain in place.
That should be the way to become a successful investor, we should let our money work for us. It just prove that in order to achieve your goal in life specifically to become rich we should work smartly, the best example is to let our money work for us. However, the aforementioned cannot be done if you do not have a savings now, so while we are at our current status, we should work hard to have a good amount of money to invest.
1469  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: August 04, 2016, 05:52:27 AM
Gambling is designed to take your money. If you play long enough the house always wins because of the house edge. As for investing, if you can find an investment opportunity that has a good long term track record, you are way better off investing instead of gambling.
This.  But people love to gamble anyway, and it's not an entirely rational thing.  I always fall on the side of investing money that's not going to be spent.  I'm a saver.  But there's no way I'd invest in anything advertised on this site, including casinos.  There's too much shenanigans going on and i don't trust most to succeed anyway.
That is your opinion dude but we have a different opinion and in overall investing is profitable as the house has the advantage and it wins all the time. If you think that casinos are shady then you should be lucky when you side them because due to the shady thing you will profit.
1470  Economy / Economics / Re: Should I believe in Bitcoin ? on: August 04, 2016, 05:47:26 AM
You should believe in Bitcoin because it can allow you to make money, so if you want to do that you have to believe in it.
The future of Bitcoin can be bright which can allow us to make much money.
I personally think bitcoin is not the only land to get money from the internet, there are many business opportunities on the internet such as Google Adsense.

Well but Google adsense is very hard to get approved there but once you get approved there then you are really going to be rich with it.
But for us, bitcoin is really a good source of income in internet that's why many people here are relying on bitcoin and keep on believing on it because once the price increased we are all going to be happy.
From the beginning, we can say that bitcoin has many positive features as additional or fixed assets. This means already makes it possible to earn. And if you look at the price per Bitcoin, we can see how much you are lucky if you have started to earn bitcoin.
Nothing is luckier than those who earn bitcoins because they don't need to risk anything, so if you have a work here in the online world, we should value that and improve it from time to time so we can consistently make money and it can be use as our investment in the future.
1471  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Everyone looses in the long run on: August 04, 2016, 05:40:33 AM
Everybody loses in gambling in the long run successful bettors can make their living from sport bets and some gambling games. If you have great game plans, you can make a lot of money from betting. Just a have a great strategy on betting for you not to regret.

Yes that's for sure that everybody is losing in the long run with gambling it's either you are going to win in the beginning but you are going to lose in the end. So, be wise if you are going to gamble daily just manage your winnings to your savings so that you are not going to lose in the end.
That is why it is not advisable to gamble regularly because the more you gamble the more your chances of losing is getting bigger. If you are a wise person you should treat gambling as just a form of entertainment and nothing more as the moment you go beyond that limit you will be risking your self to experience the negative outcome in gambling.
1472  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to stay away from gambling? suggestions ? on: August 04, 2016, 05:35:10 AM
Yes that was i am trying to say. It was intended for those who are addicted to gambling. You are also right it is his free will to what path he will be choosing, but he should better decide for the good of his own.

Of course you much help yourself if you are really willing to stay away from gambling and you can't do it alone you must have someone that is going to guide and help you. Because you cannot overcome it if you are still going to get addicted to it. And even you are going to say that you are going to stay away you are still not going to help yourself because it is a nature of human being.
You must have the willingness to change in the first place to completely quit in gambling. Gambling is never easy to treat when you are addicted with it while you will enjoy gambling if you have considered it as an entertainment. It depends on the person on how he manages himself in gambling but always consider to put some limitation.
1473  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Losing investment on Gambling sites on: August 02, 2016, 09:12:57 AM
Investing in gambling site is mostly like playing gambling, difference is in playing gambling you are the full responsible of your profit and loss and in investing, the users who are playing on that site are responsible for your profit and loss. As if any or more users won high and go for withdrawal then that loss will be divided on the investment part, it is right that if you have high investment then you can get back that loss as other users on more time will lose and you will gain back.
They are never the same because in investing you have a good chance to make profit as in general gamblers loses in the long run which makes the house wins all the time, as an investor you are already guaranteed with a profit especially when you are investing in a gambling site that has a huge house advantage.
1474  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: August 02, 2016, 09:01:47 AM
Gambling or investing, you will still be tied to BTC volatility, so you might lose $$ value even if you get profit in Bitcoins, or vice versa.
But might profit $ value too, right? so yeah both is risky but we choice to invest or gamble, or even both of them so we should know what will happend in the future.

Both invest and gambling have their own risk and i rather pick gambling than invest. In gambling you can win big and lose big, i love that way and i hate waiting, like invest.
That is up to you man, but I will tell you I will be happy if majority of the gamblers are losing because I am a big fan of investing rather than playing. My playing time is just to have fun and my investment is my venture for my future. I believe this industry is profitable because more are losing in gambling than winning. Gambling industry will not grow if this is not profitable.
1475  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: is gambling fix your life? or wreck your life? on: August 02, 2016, 08:42:32 AM
Gambling is really dangerous if you do not know how to control yourself. My share of experience with this is that I'm having successive wins for a few days and then I thought that if I earn that much with a small amount then I will deposit a bigger amount and then it happened. I had successive losses and then I lose it all including the profit that I accumulated. It happened because I'm greedy and I was not able to control myself. I can't say that it wrecked my life totally because I was able to catch myself before I fall into the trap and lose everything dear to me.

Greediness wont make any good thing into you but  only disaster, its really hard to control your self to those times your  experiencing this kind of feeling, you cant even think when you should stop. Having a good self control and  realization would be a big help to stop yourself  if you already experiencing greediness.
Greediness is a way to lose our money, mostly who have this attitude are those people who are desperate in making money in the easiest way and a short period of time. This is not a good way in gambling because it will never bring good to you as a gambler and you will not last in doing that since you are not doing it base on your ability to think rather play with your emotion only.
1476  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is this what we called "addictive to gamble"? on: August 02, 2016, 08:36:11 AM
Definitely if a person starts to gamble to win the money they most likely will try to chase loses leading to bigger ones. People need to avoid this and keep their bitcoins safe.
Addiction will never bring good into your life as you are like doing gambling without having the right mentality, most addicts loses in the end and will result to doing illegal things just finance their gambling addiction, we should avoid that scenario to happen in our life and maintain self control in gambling.
That's true, once they really wanted to get what they want, they will do something just to gamble again cause they are really addicted and they cannot control themselves, some people are like that, they don't know how really to stop from playing gambling so if you have a family member that is like that guide them and always be with them.
There are a lot of people that wanted to get all what they want in life, but of course that will not always happen, it is also depend on us, if we know how to manage everything especially our money we can have a good future at all.
You know what guys while I'm here in signature campaign I learn from the mistakes of other people by reading all their experiences in life. In that way reading a lot of people side we can learn and of course it is also depend on us if we apply it to our self or not.


True, reading experiences here in forum or in threads would make you learn and you can able to reflect it to yourself. Its really up to us if we applied it  on our own lives. Thats why i  love also  while doing signature campaigns, you could  also learn while you are earning. Back to topic.  we made our own decisions  on our lives it ups to ours how we handle it and arrange it.
And actually if one is paying attention to what he is reading here with the experience of our fellow gamblers it should not come to the stage that we have to be addicted in gambling and learn from our mistakes in a hard way.
1477  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much can u lose with gambling? on: August 02, 2016, 08:32:28 AM
Well it would be safe to say that you have a lot more to lose in gambling that you can gain. This would depend on how addicted you are to gambling. I know a lot of people who lost jobs, property, friends due to so much gambling addiction. So to speak, it is possible to lose everything if you are too much in to gambling.
Why is it a big issue for everyone? gambling is just a game of fun and not a game of chance to make money, if we play for money we will lose money and we will not enjoy the game and that would make us addicted in gambling and eventually we will experience a miserable life in gambling.
Yes, but that was a gambling game routine we can win and we can lose, but the thing is gambling is really for an entertainment and not to have a consistent source of income, we can't rely in gambling if we really need huge amount of money but we can gain profit in gambling but we can never be rich in this kind of game, all we need is a pure hard work.
That's base on our decision on how we are going to treat in gambling because either way (profit or entertainment) it is still our decision in the end and we are the one who will face the consequences. I do gamble for fun only because I have not skills to win in the long run, my skills is not really that good to give me a consistent win in the long run.

1479  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: August 02, 2016, 08:14:56 AM
There is nothing wrong at gambling, all people had gambled atleast once, being lottery or online they had made, several people keep betting lotery all weeks, if it were wrong to believe you can win some big prize to change your lifestyle, i wanna be wrong as well. The only problem is when you start to thing gambling can be a source of income, at this time you will be hitting your family as yourself.

Gambling is really wrong even if you put the world upside down the thing is it will always will be and because of the involvement of money it always will be wrong, in GOD's point of view gambling really is wrong, and Because of often taking advantage of poor people who think they can gain instant wealth, tempting people to give in to their greed, by demeaning and displacing hard work as the proper means for one’s livelihood, these are the example's why gambling is wrong.
I would not buy that statement, gambling is just for everyone and that is not tempting the poor because as human living in this earth we have our own decision and we are responsible for it. We humans demand to have an equal treatment so we have to live with it and be responsible with our decision, poor and rich are equal in the eyes of God.
1480  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are your gambling stats? (Profit/Loss) on: August 02, 2016, 08:09:51 AM
Today i have good adventure! I start with 0.1 BTC .. three - four times i jump up to 0.3 - 0.40 - everything on slots.. and ofcourse i was stupid. Everyone should count: when casino give you 200% - 300% just take everything and run away.. but for me was not enough.. so i left game with 0.02 .. fVcK!  TODAY= stupid loss!

It isn't stupidy at all yet you can consider that one as "greed". You really can't decide properly when you were on your greedy stage so the keyword that you should always think is the word "control". Just in case , i guess this would be the great thing to do to overcome greed.
The lose is normal in gambling and you are even lucky you still have left with 0.02 btc. Most importantly is we have to learn form our mistakes in the past and consider it as our inspiration to develop more on our self in gambling so we can control our self in that situation. Greediness is always the key to disaster.
