of course it is good and very welcoming.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.
Advertised sites are not endorsed by the Bitcoin Forum. They may be unsafe, untrustworthy, or illegal in your jurisdiction.

Gambling isn't bad, but you need to know your limits. Don't gamble with money or bitcoins that you need. Put a stop loss level. Gamble only for fun not to earn money.
I know people that earn money with sports bets, but i know more people that looses btw or money betting.


yep,, gambling isn't bad (if you win..)  Grin
and if you lose, that's factor greedy.

Win or lose it depends on your self though, $25 of profit is winning too some people are trying to push their luck to hard and end up in losing, if you have some great bankroll it is okay but for some low balance people sometimes they are try to push their luck to earn big cash

I'm bit confused about your post. How the confidence level make you to win the bets? what is the logic between bets and confidence?

Except sports betting most of the other betting games are depends on purely luck. So you should be lucky to make money in gambling not confident.

Not just for adults, again it comes down to knowing your limits, and know that Gambling is a "fun" activity, not a way to get rich.  You have to have rules no matter who you are and use it for fun, if you win, hey great don't get greedy and try to win too much, take your losses just like you take your wins and you will be alright.

Gambling is not wrong itself. The lure from obtaining something without effort is always there and that is why gambling is so attractive. If you go only for the fun, risking a little bit hoping it grows by betting, then it's not a problem. In the other hand, if it becomes an addiction, it would be better if you forget about it.

The problem with that statement is you think it is Gamblings fault.  That is like saying, ugh, that gun went out and started shooting people.  People need to be held accountable for what they do, you can't just start generalizing and saying something is evil because a few people have a problem with it, maybe we should try to help the people who have a problem instead of saying its an evil thing or not.

Yes, you are right. Gambling should be for fun only, if you are addicted towards gambling then its wrong and just need to stay away from it.

People are free beings, which means they can be addicted to something if they want to. We all have our way of living one is addicted to morning coffee and another to wanking, nothing wrong with that.

Maybe I didn't use the right way to say it. Gambling as an activity is neither good or bad. The consequences that people has to face because their gambling habits are. I have family and friends that think that all the games are rigged. Nevertheless, they keep playing again and again, waiting to hit jackpot someday. Are they out of their minds throwing their working earned money by gambling? I don't criticise. I gamble sometimes too, even with my engineering background tells me that the odds are against me every single game. It's my decision to do so and in the way I feel like having fun.

That it correct. These sites are designed to make profits for them self not for players. If most of the players start earning profits from these sites then how these sites can survive for long time and how they can spend money for advertising their service?

They know finally they are the winner in this game so they spend so much money for advertising to attract more people to their sites.

there is no initial point , what if you won ton of bitcoins on the next session ?
then again lose on the third session ? its just luck and there is no long run thing..until you die.

Sure it depends on luck. but there's also a difference in house edge's with games/sites. The lower the edge, the more chance you have to actualy win something/or lose less Tongue
