261  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A gambler lost what he couldn't afford to lost and broke his TV after game Lost on: February 18, 2024, 09:45:49 PM
Anger management is critical especially if something triggers it. Our bodies react out of sudden frustration and sometimes the results are worse. The adrenalin is too much for the person while under that status that ended up in random reckless actions.

Anyway, what I'm surprised about is, putting decent bets on low odds. It's even more risky than putting decent bets on high odds. There's no such thing as safe odds and even for others that such odds exist, can someone have the guts to put decent value for example @1.00 to @1.2 odds? It's way better to just put the money in the bank lol (crypto fan here).

Well, at least he return from being normal and realized what kind of shit he had done.

Realizing his action is not enough because there is no guarantee that such an action will not repeat itself. The cause is gambling with an amount he could not afford to lose and that is what should be controlled going further. A lot of gamblers have created harm to themselves and others and even destroyed properties because of losing in gambling but this did not stop them from gambling nor did it help them control their stake. Lack of anger management can only exacerbate the situation. This is why anger management as you have noted is crucial. When a person experiences a loss or a series of losses while gambling, it can trigger feelings of frustration, anger, and disappointment and without proper anger management skills, these emotions can lead to impulsive decisions, increased risk-taking behaviour, and further financial losses.
Repetition of action is something that would really be depending on several factors on which if he does see that he had broke out his TV and an expensive one and make those huge regret later on,
then for sure in next time he would really be that wary about this similar situation and with that moment then he would definitely be that avoiding on doing the same mistakes again. He might be breaking
things but for sure it would really be that on less expensive one, but if this gambler is really that somewhat knows that he's rich or money could afford to buy a new one then for sure he would definitely be doing
the same thing once he would be losing more on which this is something that wont really be shocking if this situation would be happening again. Human beings are really that emotional on which
it would really be just that right that there are moments that they would be having these kind of impulsive actions.,
262  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How often do you win? on: February 18, 2024, 08:13:59 AM
I don't know how often I win because I never recorded it or reminded me because I bet too much, as well as how much I made or whether I was in a profitable position or vice versa, I didn't really pay attention to that.
I bet according to my limit so it doesn't really matter about the results because if I lose everything that's the amount I can afford to lose and if I win it's certainly not that big because I'm only a small gambler, except for the few times I dare to bet on sports betting beyond the limit I usually set.
It seems that many gamblers will not remember or know exactly how often they win unless they only play at one casino and that casino has a statistical feature that players can use to see how often they win or vice versa, and usually gamblers will only remember wins that are memorable because the value is very high or when they know the chance of winning is small but manage to get it.
Me too.

I dont really count on how many times i do win or really that how many times i do lose. I dont check out my gambling stats whenever its there.
The only thing that i do want to do is to have fun, losing is never been fun but if you are already that accepting that you would gonna lose in the end then the feeling of disappointment and anger
is less since you do already have anticipated on what would gonna happen.

This is why it would be always important on having that kind of realizations when it comes to this manner because if you are really that always active
on checking whether you are profiting or not then it will really be one of the reason that it would be pushing you out of your limit.

I don't want to get disappointed for seeing my stats that's why I also don't like to count how many times I won and how many times I lose since for sure the result will not good at my end that's why I always think about the existing game I played since if I win that time then will be happy since I count that as win then if lose then be it move on for next game.

I usually don't connect my last session on my games then try to chase those I lose yesterday since for me its new day and new funds has been used for this never get stressed on situation then get happy every time I decide to gamble again.

I might not find important for looking at past result since I don't really like to find something that can cause me a stress that's why I still gamble since for me playing those casino games can add something fun on my boring times in a day. Also we don't need to push anything if we just think about we are just having fun and no need to compete with other peoples stats.
Sometimes its inevitable on which there are really conditions on which you cant really be able to avoid to see those stats specially if you do have that feeling
on trying to check out on how much you have lost in total because on the time that you do see its already big then this is where you would really be deciding to stop if you do see that the negative
is already that too big. This is why not all people would really be able to follow such situation on which they would really be that ignoring those gambling stats  and wont really be checking.
In some moments of my gambling too i dont really like to check it out and just like on what been said above that i dont really like myself that getting stressed on the time
i have seen my loses are already big comparing to my wins.
263  Economy / Gambling / Re: How Crypto casino market themselves? on: February 18, 2024, 06:55:58 AM
In here the most effective ways that casinos market themselves is via the signature campaign or ads that were available before the administrator put an end to it some time ago, and also at some point we have seen alot of other platforms that casino make their promotions and for that, we have not only one channel of promotion for casinos but whichever ways, just make sure you are gambling on a reputable casino regardless of how you learned about them or their methods of marketing.
More traffic comes in through banners ads on data aggregator websites like coinmarketcap, coingecko, gambling review websites which are paid to promote them. Then you have these MLM/HYIP sites which are also browsed by those seeking high risk investments as gambling can be seen as one too. Many are actually going through with the referrals because word of mouth is a good advertising too. Local communities are engaging in the site and more signups come in from these.

Signature campaigns are one part and indeed any of the users come to this forum too but the high rollers operate from the shadows, rarely come to forums and all.
Banner ads have to be the most effective way for a casino to get customers, in my opinion, because they create banners that attract people who are generally interested in gambling or even those who aren't interested in gambling but are always looking for shortcuts to earn a lot of money as casinos offer bonuses to new customers and many people think that those bonuses can help them win a lot of money while they don't know the underlying requirements they will need to complete before they can make use of the winnings they get from those bonuses.

The second best method for casinos or any platform offering monetary benefits is through referrals and affiliate programs because people would do everything they can to refer as many people as possible for the benefits attached for them.
I think the latest is getting sports athlete to be their brand ambassadors, we have seen that kind of promotions lately and I think it's very effective to have a personalities behind that name so that someone, maybe a fan will be sway to play at that casino if their see their favorite athletes together with the name of the casino. Of course, the traditional way, affiliate marketing, although very difficult, but there are still members here who might be using that strategy, it's passive income for us after all. An for crypto based, yes, this community is the best to promote behind signature campaigns and as we can see, top casinos still have their campaigns here running for years, thus gaining the reputation from our community.
Arent these things are standard approach?

Hiring some known or famous ambassadors but we know that this doesnt come cheap. Companies would really be reaching out this kind of option or way of partnerships on the time that they would really be
that financially capable on which they would really be needing to allocate something big for marketing for it to be that giving that good exposure to the company but of course its not something a guarantee
in speaking about success and this is really something that would really be normal on any business.

We whould be aware that not only active marketing stuffs are the factors for success, also you should consider on how its well built and the offerings that it gives
when it comes to perks and overall service because if its a good one then money would flow in.
264  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling by financial dependents. on: February 18, 2024, 05:59:22 AM
Some think that giving early lessons about money to children is a bad idea, but I think it is indispensable, whether we like it or not money rules our life, so if you do not have it you spend a great deal of time thinking on ways to obtain it, but if you have it then you think on ways to keep it, and people need to learn from a young age that they need to use their money in the most effective way possible, and it is obvious that someone that does not have their own income should not gamble at all.

On the other hand I really don't know the reason but I also never had lessons in school about finance or financial management or some good steps to earn money, whereas of course it is a good thing to teach a child about some things about money so that they can really have a good point of view so that they are able to appreciate the value of money and know about the value of money in life, on the other hand everyone needs money and everyone spends time in their work to earn money because this is the only thing that can keep sustaining all the needs so that we can stay alive.

Money is indeed very valuable and everyone wants it, and let's connect this context with gambling, as we know that casinos provide or give everyone the opportunity to win provided that they must be really lucky, and with the opportunity to win where money is the object of victory, this is clearly the main reason why people are involved in gambling, the hope of getting "money" in gambling is the main reason why people are attracted to gambling, they think that by gambling they will be able to get a lot of money to improve their lives, but the situation reverses when they have tried it where you are even poorer, this is the danger if you do not have a rational point of view on gambling.
For a long time my theory about why schools do not teach anything about money, even if most people will have to work for decades or even their whole lives, is because if people knew more about how things work then they will look for alternatives, just take a look at us, the people on this forum are by far the most literate people when it comes to money I know, and because of it we have decided to use and invest in bitcoin, an asset that benefits us but that runs contrary to the interests of the governments, if people all over the world suddenly knew more about how their fiat works, I am sure there will be many people that will diminish how much they use it on the spot.
You wont really be able to progress if you wont really be that making yourself wise when it comes to decisions then you wont really be having that kind of upgrade into your life. You would really be just remain still on having that 8-5 job and would really be that depending or basing up your living with.Whereas, to those people who had been able to find other ways then they are the ones who would really be having an advantage.
Come to think that you are just earning just that right and have decided on making some engagement with gambling then you are really just that basically making things even more worst.
This is why it would really be best that you should really know on how to divide your finances and spending up on something whether it would really be that worth to take up such step or not.
265  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you stick to some Casinos or do you try out new ones? on: February 18, 2024, 04:59:12 AM
what do you think?. Do you believe he is right with the rigid approach to gambling?,  also should I continue convincing him  to try out something new and enjoy these great offers?.

If your friend does not want to try a new casino, then there's no point forcing him. Some persons are averse to change, so you should let him be.

Trying a new casino will not increase his chances of winning, and neither will it make him to be addicted to gambling. What it does is that, it exposes him to cool features and incentives that may be lacking in the casino and gives him the opportunity to compare and contrast.
There's no solid proof that jumping from one place to another will really increase out the chance of winning but we seen some circumstances that once we do test out some new things then it turns out that we
are really that lucky.For sure majority had really that able to experience on which it cant really be avoided that you would be thinking that you might really be that lucky in the new site that you are dealing with.
We do know that there's no solid evidence since Luck isnt something that could really be influenced or would really be affected. This is why when you do choose up a website or platform then it would really be basing up with your own interest and preference if we do speak about having that kind of choice because each one of us does really have that kind of criteria when it comes to various things on which it would really be that different.
266  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and Behavioral Change!!! on: February 18, 2024, 03:54:20 AM
Does any of feel behavioral change in you based on the win/loss in gambling. Myself had experienced it, and personally I used to be happy and I used to be polite with my family members and kid whenever I am on profit. On the day of losing it changes exactly in the opposite way, even for simple things I get much anger. Particularly while giving food to kid patience is must. On winning days I let him take his own time and eat. On the losing days I used to shout at him. I'm addicted, and I want fellow gamblers to make a self analysis at regular interval and be on the safer side.

I'm not addicted to gambling, but sometimes I've experienced that I felt annoyed because I only had a little in my balance, and in my mind, I didn't want to stop early, so I hoped
I'd win more so I could stay longer in gambling.

It's just that fast if I lose; my gambling money is quickly used up in less than 10 minutes, and I also felt disgusted, but that was only for myself; no one else saw it, and after that incident,
I didn't do it again. that feeling.
You feel annoyed with yourself and that is a very natural thing because anyone certainly doesn't want to feel a loss that causes their ATM balance to run out, gambling can sometimes make a person's behavior worse if they can't control themselves well, on the day they win they will be kind and always smiles in front of everyone, but if he experiences defeat, he will easily get annoyed and his facial expression will definitely be like someone who is holding back anger or upset. This causes a person's behavior to change because they cannot accept the fact that the majority of gambling involves losing a lot.

Indeed, if we are not able to control our emotions, the money in our hands will quickly run out because it is not controlled, therefore gamblers must accept their defeat, therefore, being a gambler, you must be able to accept whatever the results of gambling are and even if you lose, act as if you don't have a problem if you are aware then your bad behavior might happen.
Never ever in my gambling career or dealing did really give out that kind of financial problem on which i've been using up my neither credit or debit card. Play for the sake of fun
and on the time that you've seen that your balance had already been depleted then it is really just that best that you should quit up directly or stop such session.

We humans are really that highly that reactive on something which we dont really like to happen into us specially on losing money. This is really that likely you would really be having those kind of
behavioral change along the way specially if losses is experienced consecutivelent. This is why it would really be that better that you should be held responsible into your actions
and making up  yourself having those kind of avoiding on such situation which its that recommended.
267  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: stop the unnecessary blame on gambling whenever you get unlucky on: February 18, 2024, 02:52:59 AM
-snip-
I believe that before one make a decision in life, they should've already weighed the consequences of making the right or wrong choice, then put their fate on luck coupled with their little knowledge concerning what they're about to decide on, so why complain and play the blame game when things go wrong?
Gambling will always remain gambling, it is an activity that could go either way, so everyone should get prepared for it or just excuse themselves out of it before they start the blame game. What determines your winning in gambling are primarily two, which are your expertise about it and luck. And what you require in them is determined by the kind of games you are playing, so it is best that we weigh our options and risks involved before we proceed. This goes a long way in helping us as gambling is never a thing of force, it is all about the game of choice, and if you've decided as an adult to go for it, you should also accept the risk involved, and not blame others. It's all about you.

And eventually, if you lose through it, you should take heart, because it is either you win or you lose, and if you lose, the house wins, and if you win, the house loses, so no one should cry foul between you and the house so far they do not cheat you. I deeply knew about gambling before I started and this has been helping me till today. It helps me not to be addicted to it and also not to believe that I can get rich with it. This mindset alone has helped me to be more managerial in my gambling and I've never been so engrossed by it to the point that I will be so miserable to be shifting blame. That's just not maturity.
Acceptance and realizations would be they key and this is something which is really that recommended when you are dealing with gambling. You wont really be putting yourself in trouble if you are really just that good on handling up these kind of situations on which it would really be that best on having  that kind of moderation and control is a must on a certain individual. I've been dealing or engaging with gambling for a long time
and i could tell to myself that i wasnt been able to comes into a point that becoming addicted or able to blame out someone just because of the unfortunate conditions that i have been able to experience. If you are someone who do have that kind of personality on which doesnt really accept defeat then you would definitely be having those kind of issues on which you would really be loving on pointing out fingers and this is why it would really be that best that moderation will really be the key.

He have gotten used to this way because he started gambling all by himself and he won some money but end up even fuelling his addiction. What is next? Any tip?
He just needs help sohe will be able to quit gambling at least for a while until he's able to take care of his mind well enough to control himself not to be spending so much on gambling to the point it causes him ruin, but then he has to first make up he's mind that he no longer wants to continue with such and would want to get on a new leave.

It's normal for beginners luck to be a fuelling factor for some newbies gamblers to want to continually gamble some more even after they have been known that it was just luck, they will think that it's actually was gambling and they can get lucky much more than they would be unlucky but then sadly sometimes it doesn't turn out that they will be lucky again and they may end up loosing all that they have gathered to the casino again, but then some of them learn after such experience and become more controlled and a better gambler.
One of the most important thing in gambling or on the time that you do engage with it is not to make yourself that addicted.No matter which type of gambling you are into whether strategic or luck based casino games which it doesnt matter. People would really be sharing up with the same mindset and having those hopes in mind when dealing up with gambling on which it is really to make money.
REsearch isnt really that the main thing which is needed but rather having the control and discipline on dealing up into this space. We do know that when it comes to gambling then tendency of
addiction is really high and this is something that should really be avoided in the first place. This is why it would be always best on having that control on this.
270  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever introduced an elder gambler to online betting? on: February 17, 2024, 10:45:48 PM
This is one of the main reason on why i dont really like o suggesting something on someone which it isnt really just that limited on gambling but also in investments as well on which we could
potentially be having those kinds introductions but im not really that a fan on sharing up something that im dealing with and just been said that i dont like on getting blamed.
It does feel suck when you get blamed for something you didn't do or intended to do. I do see some people getting blamed for introducing Bitcoin even though they clearly said buying it is risky and everyone should take proper measures before trading, yet nobody seems to care. I think this is just human nature where they tend to blame others instead of themselves first. That being said, some people who aggressively encourage people to participate without any risk-reward research do exist, and I believe people like this share the blame if somebody becomes a problem gambler or gets into financial trouble due to terrible investment, etc. The key difference lies in whether they tell you the risk and how often they tell the success story of the activity they're promoting imo.
The blaming nature of people is one of the biggest reasons why I don't recommend things that involve finances to people because I know that there is always a possibility of them blaming you for any loss that they have faced in the venture you have directed them towards while they wouldn't give you credit if they manage to profit from it. It's a bad thing but unfortunately, it's found in a lot of people and it makes them bad people even if they aren't generally bad.

This is why, one should never recommend gambling or cryptocurrencies or anything that might require them to use money unless they ask about them upfront, if they do ask about them themselves, that is when you can go ahead and give them some details but make sure to tell them about the risks involved.
And this is what i dont like and this is one of the reasons on why i dont make myself loving on making some suggestions into other people just like on what been mentioned above by other people that it would
be better that you should really be remaining still and would really be that minding your own business rather than on making yourself that too love on involving someones life or activity.
Elderly people might really be that experienced but due to lack of knowledge and their senses are becoming that dull then it cant be denied that it might be affecting their decisioning factor on some things around.
What if you have seen that old mans life wrecked by gambling just because you had made out those recommendations earlier. What you have felt?
271  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: gambling for fun vs gambling for the financial benefit. on: February 17, 2024, 10:27:47 PM
Expecting profits from gambling is certainly a very wrong thing, but some people do it and expect too much. If the results do not match expectations, in the end we will not profit, we will even lose, instead of being happy we will be sad.
That's right, maybe people see other people's wins and luck when gambling so they have excessive expectations. the fact that someone else is winning is a temptation that drives us to gamble excessively.
Expecting profit from gambling isn't that wrong in it's entirety but then we know it's at some point wrong to want to keep lol your hopes and expectations on gambling profit because it will possible turn against you and you will have nothing to do or say as about it than to just bear it as one of the experiences you get as a gambler.

It's actually wrong to think that because at some point others did gamble and it turned out in their favor so you gamble too nd put all hopes thinking that it will most likely be same for you meanwhile you have almost no idea about how that person were able to get that lucky or how they went about it any that's we know that they do edit fake betting slips and post so as to get attentions to their predictions platforms and gain more followership and community. So not all betting slip posted are real.
Once we do touch up gambling then the primary thing that we do have in mind is that you would really be able to make yourself making those profits on which its true that it isnt really that bad or something that would
really be that expected for someone to have in mind since it cant really be able to resist that our minds is already wary about losing and winning thing. This is why our actions would really be reflecting out on whats
up into your minds on which it is really that a common approach thing if we do speak dealing with gambling. Gamble for fun on which this is something that you should really be aiming
on and not for the profit that it would really be giving out because it would really be just that make you desperate if you do have this kind of approach.

This something wrong with his promoter as he hasn't been rumored getting a fight this year. If he is on the right promoter, they should know that creating hype this early would help sell the fight, but unfortunately there's no rumors yet as to who he'll fight next.

Don't blame his promoter but the whole team. They created the mess in the first place on why they end up in their current status.

They also tried to settle fights with top-ranked boxers, like for example with Nery, but these boxers didn't want to fight Casimero.

They should go again inking an agreement with a non popular boxer just for sake of being an active boxer.


well, casimero himself made this path for himself. if he was up to every fight way back, he should have already faced inoue before. but due to being overweight for his supposedly fight and other factors, some of his previous fights were canceled.
And that shows that he's too careless and at the same time he do have that kind of confidence on why he had messed up and this is something a behavior on which you shouldn't really be that tending to do
when you do have that upcoming match. This is why those are really indeed those missed opportunities on fight Inoue as one of those results. So its his mistake on really just that too confident
and some people do really hate up his trashtalker behavior. I dont know if this fight would really be pushed through or not. Is this fight arrangement final?

Hi everyone!

I have arranged an interview with the owner of a crypto casino (I will not disclose the brand name yet).

I think the interview will be more interesting if I add questions that other gamblers are interested in to my questions.

So, if you would like to ask anything, drop your questions here.

The interview will be posted here, so you won't miss answers to your questions.
1. How much capital you would really be needing on building an online casino? From design/functions until to marketing?
2. How much you do generate per day?
3. What are the challenges that you do commonly be able to experience on running on this business?
4. Is there any moments or times that someone won up an amount that resulting into nearly bankruptcy?  Cheesy

Some might be asking out technical stuffs but these are mine the ones i do like on which those answers would be.
274  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Risking 1% in Gambling on: February 16, 2024, 10:59:33 PM
gamblers who have a mediocre income would be better advised to continue learning to control themselves consistently with all the rules that have been planned by themselves, as you said, using 1%-5% will not cause big problems as long as they are committed to their own rules.
and several things that must be paid attention to are not only about self control but also always learning to get used to the mind not to expect to win large amounts from gambling so that when gambling using a small budget, a small gambler can enjoy every bet he makes.
because if a gambler doesn't get used to thinking positively, self control will definitely be difficult because it all starts from the mind.

and actually there are many more ways to be consistent and make good use of the planned budget, such as betting in the right places and betting small amounts is one way to manage that 1% budget well.
such as choosing to bet on sports betting with small bets and being able to bet every day with small amounts compared to having to bet on casino games which are usually difficult to stop betting when very comfortable with the game.
When gambling, everyone must learn to control themselves so they don't gamble excessively and can avoid big problems. And using 1%-5% of their income will not be a problem as long as they can control themselves when gambling. They must continue to follow their rules so that they can enjoy their gambling games and can also keep them conscious when playing gambling. But for gamblers with a mediocre income, it is not recommended to gamble too often because it will confuse them about managing their finances. That is why they need to make rules for gambling so that they can still fulfil their daily needs and also gamble comfortably. They will also get used to not using a lot of money so as not to cause problems.

As long as they can remain conscious when gambling, they will be fine at gambling so they can bet using the money they can afford. They will not try to gamble more than they can afford because they know it will only make them lose a lot of money if they try to deposit more money. Those who are aware of the risks of gambling do not want to spend a lot of money, especially if it is just to chase the win because they have seen what impact they will receive if they do that. It would not be feasible for them because their income is not very large so they really limit their gambling activities carefully.
Control is crucial but almost every gambler do really fail into this one.  Cool

Speaking about percentage then 1% is really just that small not unless if you do have that huge earning per month then this would really be that considerable but still not that much.
The main point on here is that you should really know and be aware on the spending that you are making with gambling and not really goes into the point that you are risking those funds
which arent supposed to be used on gambling.

Moderation and control would really be crucial into these moments or times on which this is something that you should really be mindful.
Dont make yourself that too hopeful on winning because it would really be just making you desperate.
275  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to manage gambling winnings on: February 16, 2024, 10:33:10 PM
Every gambler should have management that has been planned, instead of doing useless things just for the sake of an achievement that is very impossible to get, they are not satisfied with the existing winnings and risk all the winnings to get bigger one.
Hahaha, this is an attitude that really brings gamblers close to regret and they will become gamblers who just waste money without having the opportunity to enjoy it.

Unfortunately, most of us do not set any plan when we start our gambling session. We gamble blindly and we expect another big win after we hit something big. That is what we call greed. If we set a plan when we start the session like, I will take $100 profit and end the session, it could have been more organized and we would have been able to control ourself.

Unfortunately, we blindly start the session and when we win a hundred bucks, we expect to win another hundred bucks. We must have a goal that if my balance reaches that amount, I will cash it out and stop for today. Unfortunately, most of us do not do that.

Yes and they are the ones who are so focused on winning that all they think about is "how can I win" without thinking about anything that leads to preventive measures to minimize the possibility of losing more. On the other hand I am not saying that by practicing greed you will always lose, no matter if you are lucky enough then you can win the amount you want but the fact and the unfortunate thing is that overall greed more often makes gamblers end up with regret or stress due to not being able to accept the fact that what they expected did not happen.

Simply put gambling addicts will never be satisfied with whatever amount they manage to win, because this is a typical gambler where when they win they will be greedy and when they lose they will be even more curious, so there is absolutely no good situation for them, and I think they are just waiting for the time to finally run out of all the treasures they have and only then can they usually realize when they really feel deep trauma.
Humans are naturally greedy and this is why we do really missed out on those basic stuffs even just as simple as on stopping gambling when we are on profits but instead people would really be that playing further more on which this is resulting on losing up big time and this is why it would really be that best that you should really be mindful about on the actions that you are making. Just like been said by others that people would really be just that planning to make those changes on the time that they would really be that experiencing those hardship and not really tending to do it earlier so that they would
really be able to avoid those hard situations in life specially in talking about money or finances. If you are really just that wise then you would definitely do those basic stuffs.

The name of gambling is full of uncertainty, so only fools who gamble beyond the budget limit are ready to lose it, and place bets from borrowed money. Moreover, if you take a loan from a loan shark, the interest rate is very high, it can reach 20-30%. It's really stupid because this will only increase the losses experienced. Connecting with loan sharks will only make us suffer more.
"lending money to a gambling addict is the same as encouraging his bad behavior to continue." And I think you have the right to refuse this request, because we are not super heroes who can help everyone. so you don't need to hesitate to reject it and say "sorry I can't help you." although maybe later your friends will feel disappointed and then hate you. because sometimes we also need to be a little selfish for our own good. "Stop...!! feeling bad" because we also need to pay attention to ourselves.
Firstly why would some one even go and get loan from a loan shark only to use such to gamble a d hope that they will be able to payback probably from the profit they will be making from their gambling profits, it's very unreasonable to even think of such a thing that you will gamble with money you borrowed and then be able to repay.

Gambling even with the best strategy doesn't guarantee a 20-30% profit so I don't understand how some one will risk such when they know they will not be able to make it because gambling doesn't give assurance in any of such forms so why then will you take such risk, it's absolutely foolish a d not reasonable to get a loan for the purpose of gambling, if it's to invest in a profitable and promising business that can be acceptable but for gambling it's totally out of it.
Actually these are the most foolish things that you would be doing.

1. Gamble with loan money
2. Selling out property to gamble
3. Risking your savings or emergency funds
4. All in with your monthly salary

On the time that you would really be doing such actions then you are just basically putting up yourself on such great trouble.
This is why it would really be that important that you should really be that be wary on the things that you are dealing with and act accordingly
on which you do know that you cant really be able to make yourself having such bad decisions.

He said that he had nearly 64k dollars as a loss in the gambling site.In order to recover that 64k dollars,he keeps on betting from all his economic resources.I had advice him to use only 20 percentage of salary to get away from entire gambling loss.But he is now repeating the same 100 percentage of income from weekly,biweekly and monthly.So he was in the big loan problem.Still he is arranging funds from loan to play gambling,because he think that the recovery was possible at the place where he lost his money.What will be your suggestion for my friend to recover from the gambling addiction.
This approach is very wrong because your friend is just chasing after his losses and Truly speaking he will never get to recover those money with his attitude and with this kind of approach he's using towards recovering his money if he doesn't take it lightly. The more he tries to play with the aim of recovering his losses, the more likely he would even lose more, I would advise him to forget about those losses, and start a new life or calm down and give himself some amount of time before he would start over again.
Chasing loses is never been good or ideal in the first place specially when you are dealing with gambling. You are really just that putting yourself in harm in speaking about gambling dealing.
Addiction what makes things even more worst on which it comes into a point that you would really be that losing big time or something that you didnt expect that you would really be coming into that point in life.
Losing up so much money due to addiction is common and this is why it would really be always best that you should really be responsible when dealing up with gambling.
Gamble for fun and not for money then you would be just fine. Set out limitations and set out those kind of patience and emotion handling because this is where people usually mess up.

Most Casinos will only accept a report if it has a viable security impact with a PoC and not a general report from a scanner tool.

I'd recommend asking the casino if they have a private bug-bounty program either internally or externally (i.e, operated by BugCrowd, HackerOne, intigriti)
I think if you follow the thread you will read all what OP wanted to elaborate here because he had given everything and even telling the people here what had happened and his only demand is at least a THANK YOU for what have he done for the team , take not the Money because we all need this at appreciation for what have you done good is for me a better giving here.
Sorry for the heads up on this one but i cant really just that easily accept that someone who do found a bug would really be just liking to have or get some THANKS.
Of course you would really be expecting something for some bounty based up on what you have found. The sad part when you do find an exploit which even if you do saw that its a major
one, you dont really receive any something in return but well they could really be able just simply tell you that the bug you have found is really just that minimal or something that critical.
Is there something you can do? of course none.

Yeah, if the laws are from the state then there's no way that we can alter it and if it will be, there's a due process for it to go on.
Whilst for the laws from the churches, they can make changes anytime they wish as long as their council agrees with that and the process won't be that long.
That's why to whatever perspective you are looking that, IMHO, the important thing is you gamble your own money and you control your own life.

It depends on the religion and government/constitution you take as example for it, there are religions and branches of religions which are pretty much inflexible to the changes of their doctrines, not matter what the councils say. For example, lately the Roman Catholic Church has been more flexible to people who identify themselves as part of the LGBTQ collective, but Jehová Witnesses do not agree with it and continue to be pretty much against the existence of homosexual marriage, adoption or the existence of rights of the homosexual people in society. On the other hand, there are countries where it is pretty much easy to change civil laws, as long as there is enough support from the people to pressure lawmakers to do so.
It would be easy to lax even further tax on gambling earnings on the United States than convincing people within the Ismalic world about the individual freedom we all have and having them to gamble with no problem on their believes.
Religion is very difficult to deal with and can be very inflexible, specially Islam, people of that religion take the words of the Koran to the letter, literally and some who have been radical from their childhood would never gamble and would even condemn anyone in their family if ever caught gambling, it is different in Christianity. In Christianity is possible to even an adulterer to be given forgiveness.
I agree about those church that don't change a lot with their laws and even there's a council or there's the consensus for that change, it won't be that easy.
But those are like a few that have been established for so long and that's why no matter what changes they wanna do like allowing to gamble for just some few amounts, it won't be changed.
Still, it's on the people whether to take on those laws seriously if they're devoted but of course about the government laws, they should be devoted on it at all times.
Whether its literal a government law or church law or rules then it wont really be an assurance that people would really be following up these things on which they would really be that playing no matter
what and this is would really be according into their own interest and preference on which we do know that this is something that will really be that depending on a certain person.
No one could really be able to stop those people on dealing up with something even if its prohibited or not really that allowed, as long they could be able to see those things or paths
then this is where people would really be playing no matter what. Neither it could be sin or unlawful or whatsoever then they dont really care about it.

"almost won"
I often hear this, it happens when they lose and run out of capital. When they lose and gamble again they reason "almost won". and this also happens when they lose and run out of capital and borrow from friends who are both gamblers for the reason that they are almost winning too, I think this is ridiculous, when they almost win and lose, it doesn't mean they have to gamble again because it doesn't that's right.

In fact, I'm sure all gamblers have their own reasons why they gamble continuously, whether because of a hobby, almost winning, or because they want to get rid of their curiosity, but what is clear in my opinion is that they are thirsty for the victory at gambling that they have hoped for and imagined. They don't think about the risks but only prioritize their desire to gamble.

Almost won or lose is really just that the same. Its true that there are really just that people who do really be able to control such emotion and there are ones who cant really be able to control
and this is why they do mess up their lives with gambling just because of too much engagement and being really that hopeful on things and this is something that would be messing up their lives because of it.
Its not really that bad to gamble as long you do have that control, people do usually loses up their control on the time that emotion would really be kicking in.
People would really be just that tending to stop on the time that they would really be losing that huge money on the moment that they cant be able to spend up anymore.
