My Journey: Can I Win Gambling?

[Nidaleee]

I have always felt that betting on sports is the easiest way to make money if you are in to like basketball. For example I made .1 BTC last year from winning a bet that the Spurs would beat the Heat.

yeah, but can you do this on a regular basis? if not then whats the point?

[Nocturne]

i think you can do it, it depends on what game that consist more odds of winning.

Like Black Jack seems more viable compared to the other games listed.

Thanks for your support! I would do blackjack, but whenever I play it at an online bitcoin casino, weird stuff happens. Like the dealer will beat my 20 with Blackjack, or something crazy like that, and it'll happen a few times per session.

Not a weird stuff if it is provably fair and you can verify this. Just call it as a unlucky lost. If you will want to play blackjack, I will recommend to play in satoshibet / coinroyale since they got their own tools for you to verify it directly if you think that the "weird-stuff" happened

P.S : Blackjack is among the games with the lowest house edge

Gambling should be a means of entertainment that fits in your budget. Only a small percent of gamblers make a living of gambling. My advice just have fun well gambling and don't expect to get rich.

Small percent, that has huge bankrolls.

The odds are against you if you only have little to work with, but unless youre cheating in some way to compound it easily.

Yeah, satoshibet.com blackjack seems alright, at least at first.

I'll try it out.

Good Luck... but just remember, it's human nature in gambling to not stop when you're ahead! :-/

Any sites with provably fair of course is "alright" . You cant blame the site to be doing some "weird stuff" if you are losing the bet.
The reason I am recommending this was because blackjack is one the most games with lowest house edge and using satoshibet which is convenience enough with their provably fair verifier on site

That is my thinking human nature it is never enough but to be honest the OP is not doing to bad controlling the urge, the test will be when he turns up to the casino and loses his first bet and second and then all his budget for that day. Will you stop OP? We will see I guess. Good luck though!

yup, who knew it would be so hard to just get a bit of profit each day.

[Superhitech]

You could try to make money with sports gambling, it's probably one of the only ways you can win gambling.

Alright, so I have some good news and some bad news, but the good news completely overshadows the bad news.

We'll start with the bad news:

I had my first losing session today of 0.002 BTC at coinichiwa.com. I deposited 0.002 BTC, but I was never up enough to cover fees and make a profit.  I guess that sometimes this will happen, so I will be prepared for it.

Now for the good news:

I just finished up a session at safedice.com. I started with an initial deposit of 0.01 BTC, and after a winning martingale, I was able to more than double my deposit to 0.023 BTC. After fees, I have a profit of 0.0128 BTC. I'm glad I got such a big profit for the amount I deposited, but I definitely don't want to plan on doubling my deposit each session. That's just a recipe for failure. I go into each session with a goal to win 10%-20% of my deposit.

I think I'm going to take a break from sessions for a day or two, because after 4 days, I have a profit of 0.02394 BTC, which is over the 1% or less I was planning on getting per day.

Thanks to everyone who has been supporting me!

Care to go into details for this bet? From the post that I read back it seems like you are only aiming for few percentage of your deposit but yet in this bet you are getting double of what you deposits to the site.
This extremely crossed the own boundary that you set about only aiming for a few percentage of deposits and thus you might be lucky for this bet this time

Basically for this session I just got lucky. As I said earlier, I don't plan on trying to double my deposit when I go into a session.  However, I did a winning martingale, (which is when you double your bet on a win) and I got lucky and doubled my deposit fairly quickly.

Meh.  Most things are a gamble.  @OP, What I would do instead, would be to invest in stuff and record your investments here.  Of course, that takes some knowledge and well, it's less fun?

investing wouldnt give as much money as you can possibly earn by gambling and of course gambling is much more fun than investing to sites that might turn to hyip scams, and as far as i can see this guy is in 0.02 profit already so thats not bad

Investing wouldn't make you as much as gambling lol. Try telling that to people that brought bitcoin at cents or darkcoin or nxt, how about litecoin. Investments are gambling and with a possible much higher reward. Who said invest in hiyp scams?

Okay, so today went pretty well.

I decided to take a small session at safedice.com, with an initial deposit of 0.005 BTC.  To be honest with everyone who has been following this thread, I wasn't that disciplined in today's Safe Dice session, because I have been able to double my money on my last two sessions there. I got up to 0.007 BTC, or a little over (I can't quite remember) but I didn't walk away then, which is what I should have done. I ended up losing my deposit for that session, but a few hours later, I was able to gain it back like this:

I deposited 0.01 BTC to betcoin.ag from a separate wallet than the one that is public on this thread, because I was planning to play a little bit of poker with it. I ended top playing a few minutes of Micro stakes on Betcoin Poker, and I lost 0.001 BTC (I'm not that good at poker  ). I then decided to go to the Betcoin Casino, and I was able to go from 0.009 BTC to 0.018 BTC in a few minutes.  A few minutes ago, I went back and had another session, and I went from 0.018 BTC to 0.025 BTC. So my profit for the day is a little over 0.015 BTC after fees.

Betcoin.ag's withdrawals aren't instant, so I should get the coins in my wallet in a couple of hours. I'll put the 0.01 BTC back into my other wallet (which is not public) and the other 0.015 BTC will go into the wallet that everyone watching this thread can follow.

I have definitely had a stroke of good luck in the past 2 days or so, and we all know what happens when you get too greedy after doubling your deposits a couple times, and even tripling it once.  So I really have to buckle down at this point in the journey, and get really disciplined.

Another solid proof that people cant stop their greed into getting more from gambling. This post is made less than 24 hours after you posted this one

I think I'm going to take a break from sessions for a day or two, because after 4 days, I have a profit of 0.02394 BTC, which is over the 1% or less I was planning on getting per day.

You may be lucky this time but this serve as a another proof which might be the beginning for you to lose even more because you cant control neither your emotions nor your greed . This is perhaps the reason on why you lost alot of BTC before you started this thread.

P.S : you cant stay lucky forever
