Giving up should be the option. But some gamblers decided to continue thinking that once they stop, they will no longer get their money back. This kind of thinking is only making us lose more money and worsen the situation rather than succeed. 

Although we think that OP is an experienced gambler, he still loses control of himself. And this is going to happen to anyone when you are frustrated. This tells us how important it is to have self-control at all times. 

Well, there's actually higher chances for that. The last significant bull run happened last 2021, so if we will consider the 4 year cycle for bull run, this year is good to go.

However, we cannot assume that what happened in 2017 will be exactly the same within this year. 2025 might even surpass it, especially that Trump is a big motivation for btc price to reach another peak once again.

With bitcoin, I realized that banks and government are two imperfect bodies that are only focused on their own welfare, not actually for the people’s welfare. And that fiat is not the one that we all need now and in the future, because there is bitcoin that has more advantages and potentials compared to fiat currency.

However, we all have different points and views about this. But one thing is certain, bitcoin is not created to replace the position of fiat, but only to act as an option or alternative when people are not comfortable of using fiat.

Yes, that is what I want to see rather than it being just ruled by a single team and known names for many years, which is quite boring anymore. This change gives us another exciting ending of the season. Although those know teams are still leading, at least we see new names who are expected to show their talent to the next level.
But of course, with a strategic plan of the coach, well performed, it surely makes the team win. 

Read the rule first. If merits is not required, then everyone is free to participate. However, while it's not required at the moment, but it will be your advantage if you are starting to earn merits for your future competitions. Still, work on it. It takes time but in the end, it will certainly paid off. The merit system will most likely become a trend in the future.

Peter Schiff is a CEO and a Chief Global Strategies of Euro Pacific Capital, and most of all an antagonist on bitcoin. He never speaks positive things about bitcoin but all are unjustified criticisms which give us a doubt if he’s actually making a prediction or he’s just fond of creating FUD or hype that will only lead and create confusion to the people, most particularly those new enthusiasts of bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.

- Win money
I picked this one because that is what it appears in my mind and encourages me to gamble, especially when seeing the huge jackpot prize... No reason to deny that because that is really our main objective here in gambling. Nobody dares to gamble without thinking of returns. 

- Pass the time
It happens sometimes. We all have different ways of relaxing, and as a gambler, I'd say gambling could help me. 
 
 
 
 

If these big and popular banks take risk with bitcoin, then there's always possible chances that small banks will follow the same path. Bitcoin is never a threat for banks, in fact it could be their edge towards high progress for their own business. Its just that the government is making a bad image for bitcoin, when in reality bitcoin could be the best key to make a single country establish its financial and economic stability over other countries who are still hesitant to accept bitcoin.

This is not new in the history of basketball. I'm not sure if it's because of their strategies and playing adjustments or if both teams are not too lucky this time. But still not disappointed with the result, as I've enjoyed watching the whole game full of thrill. Beermen just really showed us that they can still make a win despite the scoring status. Of course, Magnolia gives their best as well but not enough to take the lead. 

Being efficient means achieving maximum productivity with less wasted effort, hence the only way to be efficient in trading is to accept your failures and losses and learn from them. Trading is a learning process, the more you expose yourself into trading and gains valuable experiences, the bigger chances of becoming an inclined and professional trader. There’s no efficient trader that happens in an instant, everything should start from the scratch until you gain mastery and expertise everytime you decide to trade.

That’s why we call it New Year’s resolution because you have to plan and prepare yourself for it, mentally, emotionally and physically, and encourage more focus and determination so that you can achieve what you have set in the first place. Despite of new challenges and battles that new year brings, quitting should never be the option but just keep going. After all, life is never a competition. You stumble and fall, but you won’t stop there, but stand and learn from all your challenges. Life is a journey, no problem if you’re slow as long as you’ll get to your final destination.

Some people who don't have knowledge about addiction and even have experience can just say it was easy to get out, but those who are in the box struggle to fight because of temptation. That is indeed and as much as possible, we don't let ourselves get hooked up into such a situation. 
It is very important we know the consequences of getting into gambling and set limits (time and money). Having done this consistently doesn't just put us at higher chances of getting addicted but also is a way to control our spending. 

The situation tells us something that gambling can make you irresponsible if you lose control yourself. But this doesn't mean it curses all gamblers. Many were still able to surpass the challenge of being irresponsible, and I'm one of them. 

That is why we should limit our time gambling because this helps avoid addiction. We just consider those people who are addicted to gambling and make them suffer financial crises, and I don't think that is the life we want to be.

Even though our goal is to make money, it doesn't mean we have to focus on this and make it a job. 

Reality is, sometimes your own association is the biggest reason why you remained in a negative economic position. Instead of pushing you to go up, they are the ones pulling you down so you will stay being a failure and won’t achieve your goal of success.

You’re lucky if you have a good association that supports you all the way, and boost your potentials to achieve your dreams and desires. But for unlucky ones, better to shift into a new association now and find which best suits for you.

And we live that way, but we can't guarantee making it happen. That is why we should have stopped that. Keep in mind that it can only cause trouble and pressure in our minds and mess us up. Instead, we just think that we are gambling to have fun.

Whether we like it or not, gambling is not something we can manipulate and win. Unlike in business, as you mentioned, we can strategize it well and surely make money. But here, it was badly impossible as we only relied on luck, not on strategies.

Perhaps we can bet on the game without watching it. But the question is if we are really satisfied with the results or not. No.

It still makes sense to bet on sports that we like and even watch the game. Because for me, sports betting is not just gambling alone but also giving support to our favorite team. It is more entertaining watching our favorite sports rather than sports that we don't have knowledge about. 

Besides, we put our bets thinking that can make us win. And this is only going to happen if we know the team and sports well. 
 

It is really in our control, and when we make it a problem, that is why our gambling life become miserable. It is easy to understand how gambling works, but we make a  struggles on how to be consistently responsible. And a common reason is because of our greed. We've been affected too much by such a thing because what it appears to our mind is to gamble more in order to win, neglecting the possibility that it can lead us to a very disappointing situation, which is addiction and huge losses.

Just one more to go! The first game went way under, as expected Magnolia is always a defensive team. For the second game, the total looks low, but that's usually a good sign since it often ends up going under. Good luck with your parlay, hope it hits. 

As for my bet, I’m thinking of going with NLEX on the moneyline. They’re currently at +3.5, but since they’re on a losing streak, I just want them to finally grab a win this time.

Thank you for these reminders OP. These could be helpful not just for beginners but even to those who are already in the trading scenario. However, based on my trading experiences, the best key factor to achieve success and profitable trading will always point to discipline. These knowledge, skills and strategies may end up nothing if you don’t have what it takes to become a disciplined trader. Do not just trade and aim for your goal, that will only make you prone to some inevitable losses, but trade because you know your potentials as a trader. Trading could be hard and tough, but to those who are disciplined traders, they always find ways on how to motivate them despite of those mistakes and losses that they have incurred while trading.

Casinos like that are great, and gamblers really love them. But why do we need to do KYC? Isn’t crypto supposed to keep us anonymous? Based on my recent experience with a new casino, I managed to win from a small deposit, aiming for just $100. To my surprise, my account got blocked, and they asked me to complete KYC. Luckily, it didn’t require a live selfie, just an ID for their level 2 KYC process.
