501  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe in gambling experts predictions? on: March 06, 2024, 09:54:41 PM
I always keep saying that people shouldn't depend on other people if they are playing a casino game that requires skills, it doesn't matter if the other person considers themselves an expert in gambling, if they were really an expert in gambling It's bad luck so he wouldn't be sending his CV to companies, they would have a lot of money and everyone in his house would be rich. But people don't want to change, they prefer to believe guys who are clearly lying. For example, on YouTube you will rarely see someone who owns a channel who considers himself an expert posting live and with his own money and in games with large odds like over 1.70, this is because in sports betting, games like these that have high odds are very complicated to predict the result

So what happens is that scammers who keep lying that they are experts in gambling, keep betting on games with very low odds and use money coming from the casino that sponsors them and yet people don't notice this very important detail, the guys They lie that they are experts and make predictions about games with very low odds, something very obvious about who will win and even if the person wins, they will not have a profit that motivates them to continue betting. and the casinos recommended by the scammers are strange casinos in which he profits from referral commissions, maybe he could even be friends with the scammers who created the casino, I don't believe these guys who keep saying they are experts, the guys are very liars, you know Very well, in games of chance people rarely make a profit
502  Other / Off-topic / Re: Who does gambling addiction affect the most? on: March 06, 2024, 08:11:17 PM
talking about addiction and who it affects most, a few days ago here in my neighborhood someone came to my house and the person was visibly disturbed, I went to find out what he wanted, but everything he kept saying was something I didn't understand, so I I paid close attention to him and realized that he was under the influence of alcohol and drugs, at that time I felt sad because the guy was visibly upset and couldn't speak properly, and got angry very easily, in other words he was completely disoriented. I had to tell him to stay away from my house and to come when he was lucid. when I entered the house. I started to think how his wife is managing to live like that, it must be a very difficult life, if the guy at my house turned out to be violent, then I wonder how he behaves at his house

My suspicion is that when he consumes alcohol and drugs he starts to be violent towards his wife, I say this because his friends who also consume alcohol and drugs celebrate every time one of them hits his wife, I am shocked every time they say , the effects of drug addiction are very great, it affects the society in which the addict is, it affects the addict, his family, his wife and neighbors and his schoolmates and work colleagues. So addiction is a disease that needs to be taken very seriously because it is something that destroys a society, destroys a family. Many addicted people become aggressive, kill and steal and die or are arrested. There is nothing good about addiction

You see then, any game require focus. Maybe not a 100% of the time, but at least monitoring for a while what is going on is a must. If a person places a bet, closes browser tab and start working or doing something else, then such strategy will lead to loosing. It shows that a persons cares little about the game, about the result. I find it hard to do one thing at work, and parallel do something completely different. Gambling and working are two processes that hard to combine. For example like reading and cooking. You will get the dish done, but probably forget what you have read. I accept the fact that someone manages to work and gamble parallel, but I think it does not worth spending time like that. You wont win much, you wont get fun and excitement during that gambling period.

In my country I saw people placing sports bets while they were at work, I asked them how they do it and they told me that when they are at work they log into their work computer during their lunch break, analyze the games and place sports bets and When they leave work and return home they just wait for the games to start, because according to them, the number of games they put in their multibet is very large, so they need to take a lot of time to analyze each team and they need to watch videos of each team playing, so it's easier for them to use the internet at work and watch lots of videos of each team's games, so they spend many days watching videos of each team's games and watch them at work

I asked them why they don't use the internet on their cell phone or at home, and they told me that they don't want to give up their internet on their cell phone and computer, so they use it at work, which is much faster and the funniest thing is that they they made multibet bets of 500.00 odds and won a lot of money, but even so they didn't want to pay for good quality internet, I confess that I couldn't stop being shocked, for me it was something that I hardly understood, they downloaded heavy games out of enthusiasm, I'm talking about computer video games, they analyzed the games and placed sports bets and won a lot of money but they still didn't put fast internet in their homes.

My opinion was that they behaved like people who liked to suck everything from the company, they didn't care if it harmed the company, they just cared about themselves, it's funny that they have good salaries, but they still have that behavior. people like free things. Many people gamble at their jobs because they take advantage of their job's internet because this way they save money, the money they would use to pay for internet, they will use to go to restaurants and beaches.
504  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Decentralized vs Centralized Gambling....Which do you prefer? on: March 06, 2024, 05:00:15 PM
The fact that a game is built with a smart contract is not enough to call a casino decentralized because the guys who generate that smart contract are the ones who create the rules of the game and the ones who will get profit in the long run. I don't see what doesn't have of decentralized. I mean the community can't change the house edge, that would be a good example of how a decentralized project works.

For me, all of them are centralized, but they use different technologies to operate, that's all.

Some smart contracts are built this way. The developer can decide if he/she wants the profit to be transferred to his/her address, or remain on the contract itself (to pay for gas fees, etc). Decentralized gambling could have a future if governments start cracking down on centralized gambling sites (particularly those dealing with cryptocurrencies).

Gamblers will ultimately decide which kind of casino or gambling site is best for them. As long as gambling is done in a fair & responsible way, nothing else matters. Smiley

I remember that a few years ago people thought that they could fight against governments, they thought that governments did not cause fear and that therefore they could create financial services without worrying about things like licenses, kyc and money laundering. With this thought, many exchanges, mixers, icos, defi and crypto casinos emerged. but governments started to show their great terrifying power by learning the mixers and their creators and the dark web guys and to show the terrifying power that governments have, and that the courts when they judge these mixer owners, they impose prison sentences heavy, with few charges such as money laundering, operating an unlicensed website and then putting many years in prison without rights to freedoms so soon, they look like terrorists being tried

And the problem doesn't end there, as these are crimes committed on the internet, soon other countries will also introduce high prison sentences, so the person will be sentenced to prison in many countries, so the person will die in prison. This means that someone who wants to operate a casino must follow the laws, get a license, do KYC so that in the future they don't see their casino being seized by the government and the owner being arrested and left in prison until his death. Honestly, in my opinion, I advise all casino owners to respect the laws and not create anything that could lead to imprisonment, because it's not worth defying governments. and a fight in which the person loses
505  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling mistake repeated by the gamblers on: March 06, 2024, 04:46:16 PM

Greedy:
The gambler should avoid of the greediness in the gambling after the continuous gambling winning.The gambler should try to withdraw the funds from the gambling site after the good winning in the gambling site.Many loss the capital by doing high betting and random betting with the positive wipe with more winning.The most of the successful gamblers may skip greedy in their betting.

Share your opinion about this two mistakes with your experience.

Remember that gamblers are cool when they are playing without being greedy but once they turn this attitude ? addiction will come for sure as we have seen those addicts that are greed in winning so much .
when we can earn while having small wins and get out of the table but its now in which ending? they are losers and will always lose more.

I often talked about greed and that when players are winning a lot they should stop playing and leave with the profit, I also agree with that, but I also want to add the problem is when the person has no planning before starting to play, for For example, let's say that a person takes 50$ and starts playing poker, that person manages to win 5000$ in one night, but that person is thinking about whether to stop playing or continue playing and I decided to keep playing and loses everything and leaves with nothing. the next day another person also takes 50$ and goes to play poker and that person manages to win 5000$ and I decided to stop playing and left with a profit of 5000$, the next day he goes back to playing and becomes very confident and instead of putting in little money he keeps putting in a lot of money to make a lot of money quickly and loses the entire $5000

and leaves the casino with nothing, in both cases the guys lost everything. and the reason was the lack of planning before starting to play, they should decide how they would manage money and time, for example if they are going to play with 50$ then they could set a rule of 5$ per round and a maximum of 5 hours of time playing. If they made a profit of 5000$ they would keep the same rule that they would only put in 5$ per spin and a maximum of 5 hours playing and when they reached 5 hours of play they would immediately stop playing and go home regardless of whether they were winning, they would stop playing. that way they wouldn't lose everything immediately, it would take a long time for them to lose everything, and if they were very skilled at the game then they wouldn't lose everything

When you don't do adequate planning for anything, the tendency is that the person starts making decisions without thinking much and this leads the person to make many mistakes and they will not be able to understand why they are making so many mistakes and it will be difficult for them to rectify these mistakes, in the game of bad luck advance planning is something very necessary, especially to be able to have good bankroll and time management. The longer a person spends playing games, the greater the risk of becoming addicted. If a person has no other things to do in the real world then that person will get caught up in games and will be lost to addiction.
506  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you had this gambling experience? on: March 06, 2024, 03:20:09 PM
From my personal experience, it seems gambling is designed this way, and it is a true test of our emotions. When you want to be serious, you will lose more but when you are unserious, the winnings will surprise you.
I have had this experience many times and I end up feeling bad because the games you don't expect to work are those that will eventually work as predicted. Assuming a gambler can adjust to this casual pattern and make it a habit, I'm sure the result will be better than this serious forecast that always turn out very disastrous. 
This is the reason why I do say thst gambling is mostly luck based and anything asides that will definitely not be gambling, because in gambling you are only predicting the possible outcome and not you been sure of the possible outcome, and that's why you don't have to be serious or not you. Win a bet, sometimes you win a bet regardless of the efforts as the casinos isn't a rewarder of effort but luck, although your skill and knowledge about a particular game can come in to help you increase your chances of winning but it's not a guarantee you will win.

Don't gamble putting all your hope on it, gambling casually helps you gamble with less emotions and so you could just win without stressing because you did gambled with a mind of accepting whatever it is rhe out come will be and little or no emotions were attached to it.

In my opinion, gambling games such as poker and sports betting are the types of games in which you don't rely on luck, if you want to test this today you can, today we will have 2 games from the European Champions League, they will have the following games:

Manchester City FC - FC Copenhagen

Real Madrid - RB Leipzig

You can test without analyzing these 4 teams and bet that there will be 6 goals in both games, that is, in the Manchester City game against Copenhagen you bet that there will be 6 goals, for that you just have to go to the over market and bet on over 4.5 which has an odds of @3.35, if you bet $10 you will win $33, then go to the Real Madrid game against Leipzig and also go to the over market and bet on over 4.5 and by betting $10 you will win $45 $ and you count on luck, after the game ends you see if it was really worth counting on luck or if it would have been better to analyze each team to see if they could score a lot of goals or not and what would be the best market to bet on

In this case, probably if you analyzed each team you could come to the conclusion that betting on Manchester City to win and Real Madrid to win would be the best option and as the odds are low, placing a multibet bet with Real Madrid and Manchester City to win with odds of 1.7 would be a good option, by betting $10 you would win $17 and if you put other teams in that multibet bet, if you won you could get a high profit and without counting on luck, you will be counting on your skills, if you lose it just means you weren't very skilled , it has nothing to do with bad luck
507  Economy / Gambling / Re: ✨ BITCASINO - Elevate Your Gameplay 💎 #1 VIP Crypto Casino ✈️ on: March 06, 2024, 02:00:20 PM
Guys, how much do you need to wager to be able to say, "I've had my fun"? I think it depends on your mood and on the slot you are playing. With Bitcasino Billion To me, usually, 10 Euro is enough. And sometimes the amount I have to wager to feel happy is even less than €5. Like earlier today I went to Bitcasino, wagered less than €5 on my favourite slot. Had some small wins along the way:



and went home feeling happy. Smiley

In my case I only feel that I have fun when I manage to make a lot of profit while playing with little money, but when I lose a lot even though I only put in little money to play, then I don't feel in the position of someone who has had fun , because in my opinion playing and losing there is nothing fun about it, losses don't make someone laugh, on the contrary losses make people angry, sad and in many cases cry while most people when they are playing and when they win, they celebrate and play more happily, this can be easily observed if you go to a physical casino or somewhere that has games of chance and lots of people playing.

you don't need to ask the people who are playing which one of them is losing a lot, you just need to look at the faces of all the people who are playing and the face of the person who looks like someone who cried, who is angry, nervous and If you regret a lot, then this is the biggest loser of all who are playing, and you will see that the majority will be sad because they are losing. The few who win will be celebrating and playing with happy faces, they will be having fun. unfortunately in games of chance, few people win and have fun, most lose, get angry and then lie that they are having fun
508  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you feel excited while gambling on: March 05, 2024, 11:14:40 PM
I believe that people who play porcelain, roulette or other gambling games that depend on luck are the only people who have fun when they are playing or at least feel greater emotion, whether positive or negative when they are playing, I have particularly seen it here in my parents when people are playing slots they start to scream a lot in irritation because they lost, I wonder what they expected, if they know that the chances of winning in slot machines are very low, the guys spend hours putting coins in that machine and the they lose that I watch in shock at the dedication that guys have to spend many hours playing something that they only lose and they still get angry and scream as if they really were going to lose

when in fact they are just losing constantly and even though they are losing every day, the guys don't give up, I wonder how they can be having fun if they are losing every day and after losing they are shouting in the street and creating confusion, which Would that be a way to have fun? Honestly, this concept of fun seems to be altered in gambling games, no one likes to lose, especially no one likes to lose money, so how could a person who lost money say they had fun? Those guys from my country who are playing at the casino every day slot should stop playing or change games, because in slot they just lose
509  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The Future of Gambling on: March 05, 2024, 10:49:26 PM
I imagine gambling like .there will be a device where in all people will be just a hologram, and be on the same table seeing other participants, because what we all see in the movies are coming in real-life like flying cars etc., so i think its easy for gambling to innovate.

it would definitely be something very good if one day they managed to do this, people could put on glasses and then they would appear at a poker table with other virtual players and each player would be sitting in a chair and with their face and face and clothes of their choosing and when they played between If they would feel as if they were really playing in the real world, I believe that even many people who like physical casinos would leave physical casinos to play this way because the person would be in the comfort of their home but at the same time with the glasses they would be being designed to a virtual world in which you had the experience of realism, you could be in a casino with the characteristics of a real casino

You could sit at the table, choose the cards, pick up the cards, interact with other players, you could go to the casino bar, without a doubt that the day this type of technology is available in casinos, people will spend a lot more time at home playing, there will probably be a greater number of gambling addicts, unfortunately whenever some technology is invented, the consequences have been disastrous, with many people abusing this technology. Take the case of cell phones, nowadays people spend more time on cell phones talking than talking in person, and this is making people have a lot of difficulty talking in person.
510  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: your perception about gambling on: March 05, 2024, 10:33:20 PM
People’s perception on gambling may be shaped by their environment. In Hollywood movies and TV shows, gambling is often portrayed as glamourous and an activity which attracts wealthy high rollers.

Some people may have grown up around gamblers who were greedy and always looking to make a quick buck. This might have influenced how they view gambling.

Examples of people being financially ruined by gambling are easy to find and sometimes people fixate more on the negative stories than positive ones.


In today's world, children hardly follow what their parents do at home or people from the same family hardly copy each other, what has happened is that people are influenced by friendships, people have never gambled at all, people don't even know what gambling is , but the friend knows about gambling and tells him about gambling, but when he talks to him he doesn't tell him anything about the dangers of gambling and that's because he himself is playing the game and has already become addicted to gambling and starts talking about games with the greatest optimism as if he is making a lot of profit while he is a big loser, but he hides this fact because of pride and the person who has never played will hear that good side and will also play and even if he is losing a lot he will not talk either nothing for the friend because of pride

There are few people who assume that they are not gaining anything from the game, the majority of players do not admit that they are losing a lot, this is because they feel ashamed, they prefer to talk about how good the game is and that they are having a lot of fun, but they do not talk about the big things. losses that are unfortunately accumulating, this cycle leads to more people doing the same thing, a mistake that drags many people down. And as many people feel lazy to do research, then everything gets worse, I see people who just play but don't have time to research more about what they are playing

is gambling restricted to some certain kind of individuals or class?  or is there any stratification when it comes to playing gambling
No I don't think so bro there is no restriction unless the government says so or anything like that so it is free in my opinion just stay safe and keep gambling within the budget that all oh and one more thing just play when you are old enough and have money hahah

Speaking of age, here in my country, I have never seen anyone who is old talking about sports betting, but I see people talking about the lottery, I believe that in my country the number of elderly people who are interested in sports betting is very low, probably because they don't want to spend hours analyzing the games and then win little money, so they prefer the lottery which is something simple, easy to buy and cheap that can give them a lot of money if they are lucky enough to win
511  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is it ethical to break your gambling rules on: March 05, 2024, 09:45:28 PM
Many people haven't made a game plan before they start playing, for them it's something like simply waking up, creating an account at the casino and starting playing and then when they start to see that they are losing a lot then they start creating rules for themselves with I hope that with these rules the scenario of many losses will change, the scenario of using money they shouldn't and losing that same money will change, but nothing changes. Even with these rules that they set for themselves, they cannot change the disaster that will be every time they play and the reason is due to the lack of planning before they start playing. for example, if the person only bets on the premier league games and knows that the premier league games take place on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays and that person will have Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays without betting and thus will rest

so this person should not keep setting rules that he will only bet on Saturday, because there may be a case where on Saturday the game is between bad teams and there is no value in betting on them, but the game on Sunday will have value and will be a very good game. good to watch, so this person will naturally think about placing a bet when Sunday arrives and when he makes a bet later he will start complaining that he broke his rule when his rule is something that doesn't make any sense, because the games only take place on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays and he will have Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday to rest and when the premier league games end in May he will have from May until August without betting and this helps in not being dependent on games, in other words there is no need to create absurd rules, the person needs proper planning
512  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What You will do in this situation? on: March 05, 2024, 08:10:27 PM
As you guys don't know each other properly so it won't be wise to start conversation with him directly about his gambling. He may feel uncomfortable when a stranger randomly start advising him! And if a person can go to casino for playing slot machines, then i assume he already have knowledge about sport betting too. So he may play slot machines for fun even it is also possible that, he isn't regular in gambling.you still don't have the actual information at all. So whatever you can do, just frankly start talking with him if you are excited enough. And then you may ask him about his opinion about gambling and if he does gambling or not. Thus you can discuss with him and let him know about your opinion, rather than advising him directly

Looking at the continuation of the Op's response, it sounds like they're beginning to be friends, and discussing more on gambling related matters. If they could work together that wouldn't be much problem. Talking frankly with the player is the right thing, so that he wouldn't pick up some argument. Gambling is a matter of choice, and he's quite okay with his slot games, despite being a sport man. I don't think any of the is doing the wrong thing, but Op shouldn't cross his boundaries.


Money mostly change our decision and same as our attitude , if they are good about it then better to talk and act together for their own betterment .
while one is in slot gaming but for me Sports betting is much better choice in gambling because of the higher opportunity of winning than luck based game.

I also prefer sports betting because in sports betting people can spend hours analyzing the games and, if they have good skills, they will be able to get the bet right and make profits. in other words, it is a bet in which the greater the person's skill, the greater the chances of the person being successful and making a profit, which is why I don't get involved in gambling that depend on luck, I prefer to just focus on betting sports. Looking back I remember how sad it was the only day I played a gambling that depends on luck, I spent many hours playing, I made a 3x profit and instead of stopping playing and withdrawing what I had already won, I continued playing and started losing steadily for 2 hours and in the end I lost everything, I was wondering how it was possible that I had played for many hours

That day I understood something that scared me very much: not to play gambling that depend on luck, because I saw that I would go down a path to the abyss if I were to play any gambling that depends on luck again, and Since that day I haven't played any game that depends on luck, not even in the real world I don't play anything. I only focus on sports betting and only on football games and the main leagues in Europe because I can only spend a short amount of time playing gambling, I rest a lot, I've had a lot of time without playing, so my self control is very good that way, while the People who play games that rely on luck spend many hours playing and can easily become addicted
513  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If a addict lives within, which method would you choose to help them on: March 05, 2024, 07:07:19 PM
I already had relatives who were addicts and the method we used was to take them to the hospital, of course at the beginning when we told my addicted relative that he needed to go to the hospital because he was sick and it was very serious, he refused to admit that he was sick, That's because in his mind, being sick meant having some physical pain, so we explained to him that he was addicted to alcohol and drugs and that he needed treatment to be cured, but he refused, he wasn't thinking about the future. unfortunately when people are possessed by addiction they become blind, no matter what words you use they will ignore and pretend they are not listening, so we constantly insisted to my addicted relative that he needed to go for treatment but he continued to refuse

Time passed until a moment came when he became very ill in a serious condition, that's when he asked for help and made himself available so that after being physically cured, he went for treatment with doctors specializing in addictions, and he was cured physically and was admitted to the clinic for treatment of addicts and he was cured, it was months in hospital and in a clinic without access to visitors, but after a long time he started to live with people who were not well behaved and this led him to addiction again and we had He had to use the same method to cure him again, but after he was cured he returned to the addiction thanks to bad friendships, and this time he died. Unfortunately, curing addiction is something bad
514  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: EFL English Championship League 2023/2024 on: March 05, 2024, 03:41:50 PM
But this season is good season for Leicester because they will be in this championship in just one season after being relegated from the Premier League last season, they are guaranteed to be promoted again next season.
But team like Leicester, when competing in the Premier League, was also unable to do much in the competition because they were relegated due to very significant decline in performance over the last 2 seasons of staying there.

Leicester was going very well and if they hadn't gotten into a sequence of 3 consecutive defeats, they would be 12 points ahead of the team in second place, but Leicester's latest stumbles make me wonder if this was the end of the stumbles. and the victories returned or if the stumbles were the beginning of their great fall, today they will play against Sunderland AFC which is a team that has performed poorly in the last 5 games, reaching the level of having only had 1 victory in the last 5 games and 4 consecutive defeats, but see how the bookmakers placed the odds:

Sunderland AFC = @4.30
Leicester City FC = @1.72

In other words, the bookmakers are not confident that Leicester is strong enough to beat a team that is in a very bad situation, this shows how Leicester is in decline, I also didn't bet on that game even though I thought the odds were good because I'm still afraid that Leicester will draw or lose the game, that's why I chose not to put Leicester in my multibet bet, in my opinion Leicester runs a high risk of not getting the promotion, if they don't win again in the next games , so Leeds United, Ipswich Town and even Southampton FC will pass Leicencer and Leicester will be in position 4



For today's games I bet on the following games

Ipswich Town - Bristol City

I bet on Ipswich Town to win, they are doing very well in the last 5 games, having achieved 5 consecutive victories, and they are a team with a good attack but I am worried about their defense, most of their victories have not been very easy victories and in in many games they conceded goals. Their opponent, Bristol City, in the last few games has not done well and comes into this game with a sequence of 3 consecutive defeats, looking at the value of the odds encouraged me to put Ipswich in my multibet bet, I hope Ipswich wins this game

Leeds United - Stoke City

I bet on Leeds to win, they did very well in the last 5 games, they had 4 wins and 1 draw, it's true that in the last game Leeds played against a team that wasn't very strong and had a red card and even so Leeds they failed to win the game, something very strange, they had 79% possession of the ball, but only managed to score 1 goal and today they play against a team that is in a similar condition to the previous opponent, I hope that today Leeds can win, the odd seemed good to me and that's why I added leeds to my parlay

515  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If I bet big I lose, but if I bet small I win on: March 05, 2024, 02:44:52 PM

However, there are some games of chance where the house edge is significantly lower than others. For example, if the player follows perfect strategy, the house edge in blackjack might be as low as 1%. This means that with the proper information and experience, you can win more often than in other games of chance. Craps has a tiny house edge of about 1-2%, and there are tactics that can assist players improve their odds. However, no matter what game you're playing, the house always has the advantage. Even in games with nearly even chances, such as roulette, the zero or double zero

No business wants its business to lose money. Likewise for casinos. Casinos are 3rd party, Game Providers want to make a profit from the gambling carried out by members in casino. Then the winning percentage will be smaller than losing percentage. That's why we always hear the term 1% skill, 99% luck. but, 99% luck can be categorized as 90% being busted, 5% winning is smaller than the bet. 4% win over bet and 1% big win/jackpot/maxwin. Of course this is not an actual percentage, just my calculations which are not based on analysis (personal opinion). However, all this affects the player's emotions, making him believe that he will win. Including me, I also often experience this.  Cheesy

Apart from the luck factor, emotions also have a vital role. I often lose if my emotions are unstable and start chasing losses. But when I play relaxed and enjoy the game, I feel like I can get good wins or at least I can avoid continuous losses.

Yes, I agree with the term 99% luck and 1% skill, because no strategy can work well if we play a game that relies on luck. But in sportsbooks, I think it's 80% skill and 20% luck

In my opinion, gambling games that depend on skills are the best choice that people should make, because people have options to improve or worsen the skills they have, if they put a lot of effort into acquiring knowledge then they can improve their skills and this greatly increases the chances of winning, for example, people who play poker and place sports bets, if they are very dedicated people who take it very seriously and study poker or the leagues and each team in the leagues a lot, then they can do very well at the point of making profits and at the end when they stop playing they must end up with profits. but if the person is not dedicated, does not make much effort to find out more about poker or the leagues and their teams, then that person will have a lot of losses and will often be counting on luck.

and when a person plays a game of chance that does not depend on luck but that person is counting on luck, then that person starts to think that they are losing because they are not lucky when in fact they do not have skills, something that they can acquire with a lot of effort, but as she is not trying very hard she cannot have skills, I in sports betting do not believe in luck, I believe it is 100% skill, if the person has good skills they will win, but if the person does not have good skills then they will lose. This reminds me of myself when I started with sports betting, I just counted on luck, I kept choosing favorite teams with low odds thinking that I would get it right, but over time I realized that it was useless to keep doing that

welcome to the forum, looking at the tos of your casino I see that it has some very surprising rules

8.2. Fees and charges may apply to customer deposits and withdrawals, which can be found on the Website. In most cases we absorb transaction fees for deposits to your Account. You are responsible for your own bank charges that you may incur due to depositing funds with us.

9.6. In cases when your balance is at least 10 times larger than the total sum of your deposits, you will be limited to € 5,000 (or currency equivalent) for withdrawal per month. In other cases the maximum withdrawal amount per month is € 10,000.

The funny thing is that if you have 1000 people depositing in your account and playing, I highly doubt that there will be 100 people who will come away with profits, that's because in games of chance the house always wins, that's why I don't understand these restrictions on withdrawals, I also don't understand why They charge a fee on deposit. I saw that your casino has been operating since October last year, and from what I could see there were a lot of complaints:

https://casino.guru/spinarium-casino-review#tab=js-tab-reviews

I assume that with these complaints you didn't have many customers so you came to this forum to get customers, but I didn't see a change in your tone, so I see that even in this forum when people look at your tone they may distance themselves from your casino. I hope I'm wrong

I dont know if Rome improves under De Rossi management, i take it we a lot of caution, i feel like they are only in the speel of the new coach and nothing more, he is having a lot of luck scoring a lot of goal with players in a good form right now, but the team still play in the old way, only they are having much more accuracy.

In my opinion, the new coach managed to make the team play very well, Roma is performing very well compared to Mourinho's times, I'm a Mourinho fan and I think he's a good coach, but in recent years he hasn't been able to make sure that the teams he becomes coach of play well and win titles. in attack, even with good players, roma had a lot of difficulty scoring goals and they played in a more focused defense that looked like a team that didn't have good players, in defense mourinho managed not to concede many goals but conceded goals and the team didn't have any hope of finishing in the places of access to the European champions league

Some people keep saying that Roma's new coach is being lucky, no. He is winning the games because he is a good coach, he managed to identify the team's problems and corrected and improved the team's performance a lot, many Mourinho fans are even saying that Roma won with this coach because they are games against weak teams, I think that this is unfair. and I need to recognize that this new coach is a good coach. In my opinion, Roma's management should take this coach for the long term, because he can take Roma on a good path to achievements, we will see in the next games how Roma will do, but I'm rooting for Roma to be able to qualify for the Champions League. next season's European Championships and who can go far in this season's Europa League

The current trend has changed where staking is no longer an option to gain profits because as you said it is only profitable if there is an increase in price but unfortunately the current token price is very difficult to predict and can fall very quickly so that when receiving a staking reward the holder does not get any profit apart from the increase in the number of tokens, if stacker sell the rewards from staking along with the capital, sometimes they still lose money, especially with the recent Bitcoin price movement which has been increasing and usually the token price actually falls.
To increase the price of this token is to increase trading volume because it means that many people are involved in this token market, and staking will not increase trading volume because holders will only park their tokens to earn interest.
I would say that token staking is still a valid way of making money if the price goes up, so you are both right and wrong. Just because we "need" price going up, doesn't mean that we do not need to stake, we should expect it to go up when we are investing and staking is just the benefit of it while waiting.

There is nothing wrong with it and we need to make sure that it is all going well. I know that it will take some time, and I know that it will not be too simple, but as long as this stays the same we are going to end up profiting by staking. This should be the best way to approach crypto, anything extra should be welcomed. In this case, BFG is great, and I hope the price will go up, but we need to stake at the same time.

investors think about big profits and not low profits and as long as investors are not seeing big things coming from this token then investors will not invest much in this token and probably will not take this token seriously, see that the price of bitcoin today is worth $66000 and thanks to this the price of this token rose a little in relation to the US dollar, the token itself is not evolving and does not rise on its own without depending on the price of bitcoin, people who bought it at the beginning may have profited, but let's imagine that people who buy today could stay hodl for many months thinking that the price will one day go up a lot and that they will earn 2x and spend years without going up, this is because they read very optimistic comments about the token on the internet.

so they deluded themselves, people often prefer to be optimistic to hide what really worries them, in the case of this token it has been around for a long time and there is no information about whether one day it will be listed on a major exchange and I have already asked myself often because this token is not being listed on many exchanges frequently, I suppose that when the token is listed on the big exchanges after a few months people will lose interest because they will realize that there is nothing that will make it go up, whereas currently like it is not listed on major exchanges, people have hope that one day it will be listed and on that day they will sell it for a high price, but this is just a distant dream and this uncertainty benefits the owner of the token because it keeps the price as stable as possible, or Be the creator of the token, don't think about investors, think about yourself

That's why I've been saying that a casino token is the worst investment anyone could make, in my opinion, it's better to invest in bitcoin which is much more reliable and focus on using the casino if the person likes the casino, but not wasting time and money in this token, but some people still believe in these tokens, I just hope that people who didn't buy early don't end up with too many losses, the sooner someone realizes the mistakes of a bad investment, the better because this way they minimize the losses and can get recover by making other good investments

Tomorrow we will have games from the European Champions League, something that caught my attention is the very low odds in favor of Bayern in the game against Lazio, in this game Bayern has 1.29 odds, something that I even thought was some I'm making a mistake because Bayer is not as strong as in the past and even though Lazio is also going through bad times, I still see Lazio being strong enough to cause difficulties for Bayern in this game, so this odds of @1.29 in my opinion is too much. low and I believe it can increase, but even so I'm not going to place a bet on that game because Bayern have become a very inconsistent team and there is a risk of them losing in this game

Another game that I was also surprised by the odd value was the PSG game against Real Sociedad, Real Sociedad is being seen as the favorite in this game and I confess that I don't understand the reason since in the first leg PSG won and we Real Sociedad's last games in the league have not been good for them, they are constantly losing while PSG is doing very well in the league and their main priority is to win the European Champions League, so in my opinion this is a very more important for PSG than for Real Sociedad and PSG will try hard to come out of this game with victory, I don't know what the condition of the PSG players is, I'm waiting for the news channel that I follow to publish news about these two teams, but I'm thinking about betting on PSG to win

Bayern Munchen has shifted their full focus in the Champions League now that they don't stand a chance to win the Bundesliga this season.This makes me think that they can crush Lazio in this second leg as losing here would be a really bad move and all this season would go in vain for Bayern Munchen.I think they are more than capable of beating Lazio and I am highly confident that is exactly what is going to happen in this second leg.
Because Bayern Munich has a very small chance to win Bundesliga trophy, it makes sense if they want to focus on UCL matches now. Although Lazio is leading the aggregate with 1 goal, it is not so difficult for Bayern Munich to qualify for the next round. Bayern Munich only need to score 2 goals and they must have no conceded goal in the Leg 2. As long as Bayern Munich can play with full team, I've no doubt if Bayern Munich can be the favorite team to win the match and qualify to the next round. Moreover, we will see the match to be held in Bayern Munich home. And the win is a must for Tuchel if he still wants to stay with Bayern Munich until the end of the season.

If we take a look the squad quality, Bayern Munich should be better than Lazio. Lazio is only a middle-class team in Serie A . They are in the 9th place in Serie A, they also become one of the teams which have many conceded goals. So, actually Lazio doesn't have a really strong defense, Bayern Munich attackers must be able to destroy their defense.

Lazio stats: https://footystats.org/clubs/ss-lazio-463




I understand this thought that Bayern has a better squad than Lazio, but it was with this good Bayern squad that they have lost against weak Bundesliga teams, so when I look at the first leg game and I see that Bayern could have won but they wasted lots of opportunities, so I'm wondering if the value of this odds in favor of Bayern isn't too low. In any case, I'm going to think about whether to bet on Bayern and PSG in a multibet because it would give me odds of 4.00 if I also added Manchester City to this multi, I see it as a bet worth making

my advice is that you don't do that, since the first days I saw this type of option I said that it is something that is not worth the risk, let's imagine that you had 10 btc and invested the 10 btc in a casino to make a 10% profit in a year, when you invested the 10 btc in case the price of bitcoin was $30,000, then you invest the 10 btc in the casino and the casino blocks the investment until the 1 year period for withdrawing 11 btc ends, in those months in which you will be waiting for the 12 months to end, the price of bitcoin rises 3x and you cannot sell and make a profit and wait for another price drop, the price goes into correction as has been customary after a big bull run, and drops to $15000 When the 12 months arrive, you will have 11 BTC but they will be worth little

This is a big risk and there is the other risk that the casino will go bankrupt during the 12 months that you will be waiting and it will hurt you a lot when you know that all your investment has disappeared while the price of bitcoin has risen 3x, honestly in my opinion this type of investment It's the worst I've ever seen. cryptocurrencies in themselves are already good investments and there is no need for the person to keep entering into these investments that are high risk, imagine a person spending 1 year to earn 5% or 10% profit while they can hold and earn more profit than 5% while having full control of the coins. It's something I can't understand, I highly doubt that casinos are giving high profits to people who invest in casinos.
