I think they should change the policy about the fee in some gambling casino if thats the case..
Like other casino has manual change the fee or they are choices to choose if what the fee we can pay for faster transaction or slow transaction..
The same as in yolodice.. receiving my funds in yolodice it takes few minutes to get confirm base in my experience..

Those methods or ways been posted above are just a common thing that most gamblers do everytime they do play and these kind of stuffs are known to be used on dice games but still im amazed on the efforts of op that he do really post these methods and thanks to it so that other people or mostly newbies do have idea on how to play with strategies but we should really bear on our minds that play on our own risk and dont overuse such strategy because there would really be a time that it would bust you up.
You got the point this is not new everything in this method are the same as other posted by other in this forum.. it is still martingale methods.
That i think can be still result the same the only you can get there you can stay for too long depends if what strategy you are made in gambling..
Well for me much still better to gamble is sports betting than in other game like dice game since the technique in sports betting is just watching the old game plays.. before you can decide to choose what team is strong. unlike other games like slots. but anyway they are be still both good for fun to test..

Regardless if you have someone who will vouch for this, there is really no way you can sustain any strategy in a gambling game. If this is true, then I'd like to point you to the website of thewizardofodds.com. He has had an on going bet, that if your strategy wins in an infinite number of games he will pay you. If you are that confident with this strategy, please go to him and talk to him about that bet. I think he is offering a lot of money if you win against his bet.

Now thats interesting. Like i said, i ignored my stoploss and the propper strategy to use the script, but this ^^ im gonna find out more about.
Upon checking the site mention above i saw that there is icann pending verification and the site looks unfinished yet..
How we can talk with him?
284  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: May 26, 2017, 09:50:26 AM
Because gambling lulls someone in fantasy of making alot money in short time. Most gamblers have more free time than people who work.

I think more than that. not all gamblers are gambling for the money. some gamblers do it just for the sake of the fun they get when they gamble. there are people who think about profits first and those people are the ones who most of the time would get their heart broken and then delve deeper to chase losses. there are also those who see gambling as just a way to release stress.

Gabmen nice said, especially last part on this. Some doctor even say that it is good way for it. Off course still large number of gamblers are into this for the money and profit, or they dont know any other way or they dont want to try anything else. They see this a way of fast income, it is it is also a very fast way of losing money.



Yes, gambling is a good stress-relieving instrument and when it is used for that purpose it is mostly successful. But when people start using it the wrong way, namely for making money, they get into troubles.
You got the point people got addicted also one of the reason why there are people losing a lot of money in gambling.. instead of they are just making fun with gambling they are gamble both fun and profit. that can result of losing lots of money..
285  Economy / Gambling / Re: directbet.eu pending bets on: May 26, 2017, 08:13:37 AM
I think if just a closed those pending still alive they will pay once the game was finish.
Maybe the site will totally closed after the pending bets are done.. but we need to wait for the result and see if they will still pay for the rest of bets
286  Economy / Services / Re: 2.5 BTC STUCK IN ESCROW DUE TO SCAMMER. on: May 26, 2017, 07:20:53 AM
I think this issue has been resolve since Ognasty already reply in this post.. and honestly i think ognasty have no plan for small amount and he already experience of more high amount than yours.. like he said patience is needed and sometimes they are delay there is no deal instant in bitcoin it takes time and check before they send just to be safe.
287  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is a correction happening? on: May 25, 2017, 06:44:36 PM
The price of bitcoin after few hours drop down that i think there are still some whales out there trying to sale their all coins..
Or this is just because they are satisified what the price  today.. honestly bitcoin is really overvalued hoping to have more bitcoins..
288  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do You Go to Land Based Casinos? on: May 21, 2017, 07:28:37 PM
Yes, I do. It's a great entertainment, much better than online gambling.
When I'm at home I can find better stuff to do than playing, so I rarely gamble. Usually just play cards to kill time, but playing at a real table with real people is a completely different experience. There's something about that casino feel that brings you in and makes you stay, especially if you know some people and don't go alone.
It will be truly different experience when you are playing in real game more excitement and trill in real game unlike in online games that you are thinking that the site is not provably fair or there is fraudulent happen in the gambling site.
And i think its more entertainment if you gamble real and you can watch there face and cards if they are doing frauds.
289  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is betting a good choice for a newbie? on: May 21, 2017, 07:24:44 PM
This is very interesting thread.
If newbies are reading it they will come to next conclusion:
If you are newbie don't gamble, don't bet, don't trade with altcoins, don't mine, don't do faucets, don't....just be newbie forever  Grin

IMHO newbies should try all and decide what is best for them.
That could be the best idea. As I believe every person has special quality. First, its natuaral that newbie need to deal with losing which through bring out what actually he does do better. Than choose the right one and go smmothly.
Well if newbie is interested why not but for me they should better to be research and learn first how gambling in bitcoin works.. before they can decide and play and read about gambling here in gambling section what will be in the end reason.. because sometimes there are many videos or article with the tutorial that you can make win huge amount that newbie following those methods that can result of end up losing their own money..
They should think first what will be the result if they gamble so that they can't be regret in the future..
290  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker Sites for US Players on: May 21, 2017, 06:31:29 PM
There was pokerstars.eu back in the day, I played with them a bit and I was happy about it.

I do not know what happened to them, have not seen it for a while now. Maybe they are not as big as they used to be. Nitrogen is also great, they have been around forever, they are trusted as well. Both of them are open to US players as far as I know.
The site you mention is no longer active or they site was bankrupt.
the site is not working here to me and i think this is already been close for a long time..
Nitrogen i think it will be good but never heard there are  many us player in other site only well known site like nitrogen sports that i know has poker players.
291  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why I suddenly decided to leave gambling alone. on: May 21, 2017, 05:54:44 PM
It's too bad more people on this forum aren't a little more understanding of gambling addiction. It's real and it's very prevalent here. I'm glad you knew your limit and you're done now. No company wants to bankrupt someone over a little game that's supposed to be for entertainment.
There are many people are leave without the help of others by there own. even the gambling is really addictive game you can be still leave alone since its your self and you should control your self for being addicted because its your self.. and need willingness..
292  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin sucks ass but price still rises- how come on: May 21, 2017, 05:50:29 PM
Bitcoin does not suck... the people who do not want to signal change are the people who are doing most of the sucking .... and they suck the

most from the extra fees they are getting from this situation. The longer this scaling debate goes on, the longer they will be able to suck people

dry with these higher fees. We hate this, but there is not a lot we can do about it.  Angry Angry .......The reason it goes up ---> HIGHER adoption.
We are seeing high adoption but the fees debate still there there are many issue about bitcoin that i think they need to be focus if what the issue today like many unconfirmed transaction.
They are focus for the price increase but the problem are still there that never been solve..
Well we are still getting benefits of the price increase even the transaction fee is really high that i think its more than high than the fee for paypal. .
293  Economy / Speculation / Re: $2000 anyone? on: May 21, 2017, 05:11:57 PM
we are greatly to see that the price was increase and touch at $2000+ right now hope that there is more price increase soon..
But remember there are still many whales out there to sell their own bitcoin since this is their goal amount i think before they can sell their bitcoins..
294  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin is the new era of currency? on: May 21, 2017, 05:09:32 PM
I think so, Bitcoin as opening a new era of finance and economics. The birth of BItcoin based on blcokchain hierarchical technology is the foundation for many more types of money later on. The value of Bitcoin is very high and it is dominating the electronic money world. Bitcoin has gone through gold. However, to earn Bitcoin it is not as easy as you say, we need to spend a lot of time and effort to get it. If you have some skills then you can earn more

Now, it's difficult to make any money, not just bitcoin. But unlike the national currency, bitcoin will rise in price and this will give us additional income. This is a very convenient way to store and multiply capital
Bitcoin is a awesome and great alternative payment methods and we are getting benefits of the price increase..
If you have your own business i am sure that you can gain a lots of profit because of the price increase
But for now it is really hard to make bitcoins if you dont have any business or service that you can offer you can only earn few bitcoins but since the price was increase we can gain a good profit with small bitcoins..

best hdd is the seagate archive or the seagate external d3 if available, both 8 and 5 TB, use the calculator to calculate the estimate, the diff increase every day, should be profitable and it does not require huge bandwithd

Is there any noticeable difference in performance between hard drives? I mean the Seagate external backup plus is 180$ for a 8tb while the ironwolf one is 270$ for the same capacity.

the initial plot writing will be slow on SMR drives (optimized plots with 'direct' flag), after that no real difference

So what is the initial plot writing?


best hdd is the seagate archive or the seagate external d3 if available, both 8 and 5 TB, use the calculator to calculate the estimate, the diff increase every day, should be profitable and it does not require huge bandwithd
Do we have estimator if how much capacity can earn more profitable?. Looks like this is interesting altcoin because you can mine with hard disk ..
Well hoping that they can release some tools that we can use to estimate how you can earn daily..

Also there is an estimator, it's available on their website burstcoin.biz, it says it's about 70$ with the current rates for 8tb, but burst coin has been on a pump recently so no guarantees.
I was checked the download page but i don't know what miner should i download for hdd mining..
Can you mention if what should i download trying to get 1 burst coin in faucet and soon maybe ill try to mine using my own hdd.. thanks.

Electrum still the best choices as your phone wallet that i think you can fully control with your bitcoin and private keys..
Don't use other online wallet like coinbase or xapo not good idea for now..
299  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I have found a long term and strong dice strategy. on: May 20, 2017, 11:52:57 PM
Let's assume you have a bankroll of 100 bitcoin.

Lets up our base bet to 7 satoshi. That makes bet #30 cost 37.58xxx bitcoin. What the hell are the odds of losing a 50/50 bet 30 times?

Let’s do the math. You roll and the chance to lose is 50% (Given house edge your odds are slightly worse than what I am about to illustrate).

So one loss is .5 (50%). Losing a second time is only a 25% chance (.5 * .5 = .25), a 1 in 4 chance (to find that, divide 1 by the decimal, .25). Losing a 3rd time in a row is 1 in 8... .5 * .5 * .5 = .125. So to figure out the odds for losing 30x in a row:

.5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 * .5 = .000000000931, which is, as a percentage (multiply by 100 to get the percentage) .0000000931% chance. And to see that in more easy to understand numbers, the chance of missing a 50/50 bet 30 times in a row is a 1 in 1,073,741,824 chance. One in a billion. One in a BILLION chance of losing 30 times in a row. The price you pay for those odds is winning 7 satoshi on a bet. As I write this, 7 satoshi is valued at 1.58 thousandths of a US penny. So you would need to win 632 times to earn a penny. And you are risking 75 bitcoin, $17,000, to do so (your total losses if you miss 30 rolls in a row).

So, you start betting. Each time you bet, if you win, you net 7 satoshi. If you lose, you keep doubling until you win, and you win 7 satoshi. Keep in mind you're risking 75 bitcoin if you lose. But, what are the chances, it's 1 in a BILLION odds, right?

So you win and win and win, and a few hours later, you're up... what? 9 cents?

You have 75 bitcoin on the line, impossible to lose at 1 in a billion odds. And if you HAVE 75 bitcoin to risk, I'm going to assume you'd like to get more than a few pennies for your time. So let’s say your goal is 5 bitcoin. About 15% of your risk. So let’s run some numbers... you're not getting 7 satoshi per BET, you're getting it per WIN, so it's not 5 divided by .00000007. It's actually somewhere about double that, given the losses that 'waste' bets. The actual math behind that, I'll get into in a moment. But for now, suffice it to say that 10,000 bets nets you about .000335 bitcoin. So to get one whole bitcoin, that would take about 29,771,000 rolls. 29,771,000 / 2 * 7 satoshi =  1.041 bitcoin.

So, therefore, to earn 5 bitcoin, you'd need to make 148,855,000 rolls.

Of those 144.9 million rolls, you have about 74.45 million "cycles". A cycle is you drop the die, and you either win, or you roll until you do win. And that's simple to show: 74.45 million times 7 satoshi is 5.20975 Bitcoin, our target winnings. Make sense? Each individual ROLL does not have a 1 in a billion shot of missing 30 times - that's impossible, a single roll cannot miss 30 times. A cycle of rolls can, a single roll series as an attempt to win can. So we're going to use the number of "wins" or cycles.

1 in a billion odds. What are the chances? When you attempt 74.45 million cycles, or wins, the odds of hitting that 1 in a billion are 1 in 14.42 odds. How? You divide your 74.45 million rolls into your 1 in a billion odds. It comes out to 14.42something. You roll bets for over a week, risking 75 bitcoin to win 5, and reduce your 1 in a billion odds to 
1 in 15 roughly. That is one hell of a time commitment to risk 75 bitcoin to win just 5!

What if we wanted to say screw wasting so much time and bets. Pull up the betting screen. Put in 75 BTC for a bet, and set the % chance to win to 93.412%. Your winnings would be 5.209125 BTC, DAMN close to the 5.20975 we were hoping to win. So we hit roll, and we either win, or lose.

What are the chances of winning at 93.412%? Well that’s simple. 100% - 93.412% = 6.588% we have a 93.412% chance to win 5, and a 6.588% chance to lose 75 bitcoin.

Let’s turn 6.588% into a decimal... we divide by 100. That’s .06588. Anyone want to take a guess as to what 1 divided by .06588 is?

1 / .06588 is 15.17.

Wait. What? If I bet 75 bitcoin at 93.412% odds (1 in 15ish) I can win 5.2 bitcoin - or I can bet 7 satoshi, martingale, doubling, risking a possible loss of 75 bitcoin at a 1 in 14.42 odds? Isn't that funny how math works out? 
Your odds are actually better to make the single roll.

With such amounts of Bitcoins it's much better to invest in casino bankroll. 75 BTCs ~ $150.000,00. Possible to make good percentages of profit every week, maybe 0.3%-1% (most common), what means $450-$1500. No martingale, no effort making thousands or millions of bets to earn 7 satoshis per bet... The risk you take by playing on long term doesn't worth the return you can receive.

The whole point of that post was to show that its pointless to make millions of bets and it's in fact even better to make a single bet, you don't waste time, you have better odds and you win/lose the same amount of money
You don't need better odds and most of the odds are same except for sports betting..
For me if you are greedy and you are not satisfied what you made profit you can be lose in the end so for me gambling is for fun and if you don't treat it as fun high possibility that you can lose a lot in the game..
300  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why Is Bitcoin Gambling Industry So Successful in the World? on: May 20, 2017, 11:36:23 PM
Because everyone could play it online from the comfort of staying at home, and also players could just play it anywhere as long they have internet connection. And most importantly, players can remain anonymous just by setting up a username and don't need to provide any identity verification to withdraw the money  Smiley

Probably this is the reason why everyone loves to do bitcoin gambling. Because before there is an online gambling already but it was just upgrade into bitcoin gambling for the adoption of bitcoin. And it became successful, it doesn't require some registration (for some) and there's no need to show proof of identity.
I think many other reason why they are was successful in bitcoin gambling.. its because of there are countries that gambling was illegal bitcoin is perfect alternative to gamble online so that is why i think they are successful and bitcoin was increase value too that i think that can sustain their business for a long time.. If those business are here in my country i think you already a millionare..
