Two years ago e-sabong or online cock fighting has become so popular in our country that many people who do not play online learned how to play online because of this game after our government shut down this online betting a new local online betting game will soon launch that is expected to make millions of profits from the same creator of online cockfighting and this is called Apple white or Apple Red a spin-off from the popular color game or slots The rules are simple: participants select either a red or white apple, and the outcome is determined by three spinning wheels. A P100 bet can result in a P280 win if all three spinners land on the same color.
Similar to E-Sabong, players are faced with only two choices, and matches unfold every five minutes, running continuously for 24 hours, with a brief one-hour break. However, in contrast to E-Sabong, every match concludes with a clear winner, with no draws, and importantly, no fighting cocks are harmed From cockfights to cocktailsThis local online game will soon become so popular that local gamblers who play on international online casinos will prefer to play here because it is easy to fund the app and there are physical betting stations too like karaoke bars and gaming hubs. Do you have similar games in your country and if there are popular local online games what will you prefer local or international-based snip As far as I remember the government stopped esabong because of animals getting harmed isn't it ? Playing games like red apple and white apple are similar to flipping a coin but the major concern is whether the outcome is truly random. There are casino sites which scam their users and so we should always play on those which uses the provable fair algorithm. I am not sure whether the casinos in my country has similar games because I prefer online casinos for gambling. I usually prefer casino sites which has the provable fair algorithm in place.

The government's role in gambling addiction is complicated. Our legislators must defend public health, but their reach is limited. Your thesis about society influencing gambling is correct. Certain actions were accepted in our upbringing, affecting our views and choices. Not merely warning about dangers, but identifying the core reasons.
As you say, parent collaboration may be crucial. Many parents notice changes in their children's conduct first. They can prevent addiction first. Effective communication and awareness are key to this technique. Parents must know how to spot gambling addiction and get help.
Gambling addiction demands complex treatment. The community, not just the government or parents, is involved. Educational, supportive, and accessible mental health treatments are needed to address this issue. Never underestimate the power of collective action to improve society.
While children's gambling habits can still be monitored by their parents, it becomes difficult when adults fall addicted to gambling. In most cases, their family only identifies the habit when he has already become addicted to it. The best thing is to do is for the individual to become self aware and manage the risk appetite. Either we should become responsible towards gambling or never gamble at all.

I wish I could have posted this in a more better place but since the thoughts came from gambling addiction, I thought it wise to ask this question over here and I hope we can discuss and get this straight.
Just as the tittle already ask, I really want to know if people who are successful in gambling also seen as addicts because I believe for one to be successful in gambling or whatever they choose to do, there must be some good amount of time and effort invested in it as well as money and we know that a successful gambler must have invested both time, effort and even money to make any reasonable winning and these also are features of an addict as there are always excessive time spent on a betting site.
Now let's be sincere, will you also classify a successful gambler as an addict?
In today's society, people who are addicted to gambling are very little trusted and liked by people. And when people see a successful gambler, society thinks that he is addicted to winning and has lost his physical and mental balance inside. But actually this is not the right thinking at all because a successful gambler is never an addict because he spends both money and time to win and also puts in a lot of effort. Both gamblers only try hard to succeed and invest their money for that purpose, but here they are not so much addicts. If they had become so addicted, they would never have gone ahead and invested such money and efforts, and I think a gambler always aims to succeed by putting his own efforts into action. Even I think that those who are successful gamblers cannot be seen as addicts. In fact they are the survivors. If they were addicts then they would be keeping on playing and losing money. Since they have become successful, they would have found way to control their emotions and manage the risks in gambling. Such people cannot be called as addicts from my perspective. Perhaps the word success is meant in this context and more precisely is success or success in managing the gambler's own finances and self-control which means that they know what to do and what not to do when in certain situations, the success referred to is not success in general which is like people achieving success in the business world which means that there is a high point that has been reached, because of course in gambling there are no stages other than coming with money as capital and going home with an answer between winning or losing. Another thing is that of course I quite agree with your idea that successful gamblers cannot be called addicts, which actually there is a significant difference if we dig deeper, successful gamblers are as I and you have mentioned that they manage their gambling activities well so that they do not cause many problems in their lives, especially in their finances, while addicted gamblers they simply cannot miss a single time not to gamble, which means they are excessive and have an approach that can be said to be aggressive, so maybe I think another word for successful gamblers is those who are smart. Certainly. Success in gambling can have different meanings. For some, being a successful gambler can be just winning money. For some, it can be managing their expenses and not lose a lot of money. For some, it can be playing regularly. A lot of it depends on the context and a lot of it depends on the players perspective. So the answer to OP's question cannot be really answered. The question itself depends on ones' perspective and so the answer would determine the context of the question.

As requested by UltraElite, I am posting detailed incident here . You will get to know what you shouldn't do !
Scammer : Nag1977
Google Pay Name : PASHAM NAGENDER
Platform : Binance P2P Date : 8/7/2023
What Happened : Payment was made using upi ID : 9966442804@postbank . The buyer made a chargeback and this user never replied to my chats after scamming me . This user is still scamming people . I can see him online few hours ago . All of a sudden I received a message from my bank that 7k INR has went on HOld and I was asked to consult bank . The bank then told me that the scammer has has complaint to MHA (Ministry Of Home Affairs) and said that I contacted him through insta and he sent me money ! WTF man ! As said by Bank Manager , the money is still on hold and likely to continue . Never accept money using UPI guys, never !Always verify third party name .
This incident shook me as I had lost earlier 5k INR while trying to contact zebpay customer care .
Doesn't binance handle the disputes in case there is any ? What happened in this case ? Did binance do anything ? I always wanted to know what binance does in such cases of disputes. With the rise of such scammers, it's only becoming more difficult to exchange crytpo to fiat.

Child boards (except Mining) are filled with spam which is the reason why many of us here tend to avoid it. I have read few threads in the child boards and all of them looked like shit posts. While the engagement of main board is itself low, we can't expect much from the child boards either.

Yeah you read the question correctly.
I got this taught while involved in discussion with some of my friend today, it was round of friends and we were practically catching up after some old memories in high school so discussion led to discussion and the issue of regretting to ever knowing how to gamble came up and believe me it was a very serious issue as one of my friend was practically blaming the other for the whole problem is currently going through right now as he constantly gambles his money away and at what avail? was the question being asked to the friend who actually inviting him to a gambling house during highschool. The matter looks childish at first because the whole table of friends there were all gamblers including myself but we all never reached the height of complaining or blaming someone for our gambling ethics.
So I was wondering if some folks here too feel the same way or it was just a matter of grudge and hatred for the particular fellow to stir up such arguement.
Gambling is good if done within limits and the problem only arises when one goes beyond the limit. It doesn't matter when have we got into gambling and who brought us in, it still depends on us on how much control we have on ourself. If a person cannot control himself from gambling then he doesn't have the right to blame others for introducing them into gambling. That's my perspective on it. So far, I don't regret for being into gambling.

In my opinion almost all steps that states take to "protect" gamblers have no real benefit. If they wanted to really help people with gambling addiction, they could open more free rehabilitation centers, advertise them on central television, launch information campaigns that would explain the negative consequences of mindless gambling. All this costs money, which will have to be allocated from the budget, so they simply do not make real steps, but only create the appearance of hard work.
It doesn't look good if they will open a rehabilitation centers of addicted gamblers as it will only imply that addiction has already become rampant. Gambling is controllable by the government, since they regulated it, they have the right to ban it, or consider it as illegal. However, seeing the money that flows to the funding of the government, they can't make that kind of decision to stop, so it's really unto us now, either we become responsible, or be on the other side and experience the effect of addiction, after all the government doesn't care about us since gambling is not a necessity. There's no benefit to the government by actually stopping gambling. In fact, they make lots of money by taxing gambling income. They not only tax citizens for gambling income but also tax gambling operators for running casinos. So its only in the hands of the individual if he wants to quit his gambling addiction.

Even I don't like the concept of people buying random NFT images for such huge prices. It doesn't really make any sense. I like the NFT technology but when people pay millions for pixelated images I get crazy. It's just the hype or a way of money laundering.

I don't know if this has been discussed before or not. Reading about gambling addiction I don't think it's a new topic, but fitting to be in here, I just want to ask: between casino gambling, in-house gambling, and one-on-one gambling with physical players available on the table, which among these is more likely to turn someone into a gambling addict if the person doesn't have self-control in all his gambling activities? Now are days I see much or all this in house gamblers becoming addicted and acting weird over gambling results, and walking down into some betting shop, you will see most of those gamblers spending their whole day in the gambling shop, which made me have the above question. I know any form of gambling can produce gambling addicts, but among all, there is one that is most common, which is what I want to hear from others.
I personally feel online gambling might have more gambling addicts because of the ease of access. Everyone has computers or smartphones on which they can gamble. In fact a lot of young people gamble using their smartphones. Also, a lot of gamblers who used to gamble on physical casinos have shifted to online casinos because of convenience to gamble from their homes. So I think online gambling has made many people gambling addicts.

I find this very frustrating when i see people complain about their funding bank/provider account being banned because of gambling related activities. My younger just called me and told me his raven account was banned and he has been using it to deposit dollars in his gambling platform and also paying for subscriptions online. I want to get this clear.
Is it because of the gambling activities that got his account banned or it is because of the legitimacy of the funds that raven are more concerned about?
Is there any gambling platform that needs to be avoided?
Since i woke up we've been trying to contact their support for complaint and no response yet. Is there anyone with similar experience?
I have read few times peoples' bank accounts getting frozen because they were using crypto to gamble on online sites. It may not be because of gambling directly and may be because of using crypto but yet it becomes a headache when bank accounts are frozen. May be your younger brother faced a similar issue. In such cases, it's better to open a different bank account which is more crypto friendly.

This is the simple way I'm able to control myself. Gambling is the last activity I do for the day, I make sure I'm done with everything of importance and all my tasks for the day have been fulfilled. I then deposit the amount I want to gamble with into the platform. I already know that on no account would I deposit twice into the account for a gambling session. As funny as it may sound, I time myself before I start gambling and I make sure not to spend more than three (3) hours in a gambling session. As soon as my alarm goes off, I stop and withdraw all leftovers in the platform to my main account and that marks the end of a session. It was difficult to maintain in the first period, I had to ask one of my female friends who lives close and hates gambling to collect my phone anytime my alarm goes off and I'm still in the platform. I guess I got used to it gradually, and sometimes I tend to extend my time intentionally, but my performance now is more moderate than ever all thanks to my new found formula. I'll mention that I don't gamble everyday as a way to curb addiction
So you basically gamble everyday or every other day which makes you a step closer to becoming a gambling addict. You deposit amount every time you gamble and then withdraw it, which makes you lose a lot on transaction fees. You asked your female friends to take your phone which made you rely on third person for controlling yourself from gambling. All these are red flags which you should tend to avoid.

You will always have people calling reputable sites scam for some random reasons; best is to not pay to much attention to it. Freebitco.in is the oldest faucet that is still running and they are still paying. To the best of my knowledge, I have never seen a legit scam accusation against them.
Even if there was a scam accusation and if it was legit, the owners would have solved it to the best of their abilities. Like any other casino running on this forum for traffic, they know that the crowd here is strong enough in their support and equally devastating enough if they mob up. Of course the second option will never happen that has been shown for the last 10years how legit a site freebitco.in is and continues to do so. Certain nay-sayers come to the forum often, but lack the proof or evidence that is needed to accuse the casino. Ofcourse they will because they cannot run a site so successfully themselves. No doubt, freebitco.in has gained massive reputation over the years. The reason why they are able to sustain for so long is because they value their users and keep everything transparent. Besides that, when was the last time you heard freebitco.in getting hacked and losing funds ? I never did. Well, if we must be honest with ourselves, then we all will agree that FreeBitco is a relatively small platform or casinos, they are more focused on giving away than making money from their users, so to this effect, not very many users have and tangible amount of money deposited into their FreeBitco account for the sole purpose of playing games, those who deposit money into their FreeBitco account do so for the sole purpose of locking it and earning interest, as well as free spins for the wheel of fortune, and this locked funds are already withdrawn by freebitco from their hot wallet to their cold storage wallets, or maybe they have also loaned the money out their partner companies as a way for them too to make money. So, even if hackers hack freebitco, they likely may find nothing to steal, not even users private information or data, since the site have never requested kyc verification from any of their users, even after announcing that they may ask a user to pass kyc verification if they find a reason to. So yeah, scammers and hackers know what sites to target and what sites to not target. Point taken. Well it sounds funny when you said even if hackers hack the website they won't have anything to get since don't take any KYC data from their users. That's an advantage over other sites. Regarding making money, there's no business that can be run for such a long time without staying in profits. In fact, so many people win so much money everyday on freebitco.in. So I guess it's not about just giving away. I think they have planned everything out so well that hackers cannot penetrate their system.

The numbers look good this year but even I have heard that the growth rate in India is still on the lower side. But we are progressing better than the previous years and hopefully with more technological developments India will move forward in the list. Although there's little to no support for crypto in India but at least they have not banned crypto transactions are planning to formulate regulations for crypto in India.

I sold my computer and bought about 0.006 bitcoin. For the rest of money, I saved them in my bank account. I hope this decision is right.
I remember your previous post asking if you should sell your computer to buy bitcoin. I had even posted saying not to do that and instead develop a skill on your computer and then use that skill to buy more bitcoins. In fact, I read the other comments and many people suggested the same thing. I think you could have made more money that way. But then again, it's your choice. I'm 19 years old, living in Korea, and I'm thinking of selling a computer to raise money to invest in bitcoin. I think I can sell it for about $600. I get about $100 a month as an allowance from my father. $100 is only for personal use, not for living expenses. I've been using these $100s to buy bitcoin for a few months now. It's ridiculously small money, but I believe it could be quite a lot of money if I keep saving it steadily. Is selling a computer the right decision?
You are already investing $100 a month and I personally think it's a good start. Don't sell your computer because you can use it to improvise your skills and then use those skills to earn more bitcoins. Further more, you can learn more about bitcoin through your computer and so selling it would be a bad idea. Keep exploring instead of selling your computer.

Buy a little bit of bitcoin every week don't care if it's a $1, $5, $10, $100, figure out what you can afford every week and buy it, get rid of unnecessary expenses or whatever you can think of getting rid of and spend it on bitcoin 5 to 10 years if you buy some every week you will be a multi millionaire
You became too lenient with the numbers because I doubt that you can become a multi-millionaire by investing $1, $5 or$10 every week for next 10 years. But if you invest $100 then there is a possibility of that happening. Dollar Cost Average is the best technique to stay invested in potential assets over long term to get good profits.

Let's say the handicap is -6.5 or more, which do you prefer to bet on, the favorites, or the underdog?
As we know, every gambler have different strategies in sports betting, they woudl stick to what they are comfortable with and that they think would give them a success in the long run, so this thread is some sort of a survey, maybe newbies or those who have been struggling to find the right strategy might benefit from this.
What can you share based on your experience as well, between the two, which one you have more wins and you find an effective method in your sports betting venture?
I mostly bet on my favorites because I feel confident that they will win the game. After all, it's the confidence that we need to strike a win. Betting on underdogs has been a good strategy too especially what we saw in Fifa where few underdogs won against the odds. In such scenarios, it feels really nice when we win the bets on underdogs but the other times it's just an obvious loss. Also, when the favorites win it makes us overwhelmed and even if they lose then we think that at least they tried. So from that perspective, it's better betting on favorites.

Did I miss something ? I don't know which issues you are talking about. I haven't followed them much recently. If you could point to some particular thread mentioning those issues ? I tried searching the same on the forum but couldn't find anything relevant.
There have been some cases and accusations against casino that have been piling up, but as far as I can see, most of them have been successfully resolved now. Although, I wouldn't really say that their reputation was completely destroyed since bc.game is an old and somewhat reputable casino. Here you can see more info: From the list you have provided it looks like all of them have been resolved. While it might take some time to get the cases resolved, it doesn't mean that the site is scam. So far I think that their reputation is intact and can be considered as one of the reputable sites.

The list is a compilation of P2P exchange that doesn't ask for KYC.
Just a small suggestion. You should have gone for compiling a list of all exchanges supporting P2P for INR pair. Dividing the list into KYC exchanges and Non-KYC exchanges would have been more beneficial for everyone. There's no point of including KYC exchanges in the list if your list is for Non-KYC users only. Instead, having both would have made more sense.
