I remember being fairly launched from my Mother’s Code into the open arms of the welcoming miners that wanted to by my owners. Daddy developed me well and made sure I had plenty of nurses (pool owners), nurseries (pools), and cribs (wallets) available to ensure a smooth transitioning into this life as a cryptocurrency. 666,666 of us were being born every 90 seconds, after all!

But Daddy was tricky and opaque. He manipulated my Mother to acquire many of my kin—in fact, 0.37% of all we will ever amount to—at once before anyone else had the chance.  This spoiled my birth a little for the miners but enough of them believed in my future to keep mining me for days. Things were starting to get better, until a man claiming to be my Real Daddy stormed onto the scene like a gun at a knife show. Apparently him and my Daddy had a run-in before I was born, but now my Real Daddy seemed really upset; He denounced his love for me and cursed my very existence. He threatened my Daddy and all the nurses and miners who wanted me to stay alive. Something suddenly changed in my Daddy. Something deep. He dumped all of my kin into a toilet bowl. This made many of the other miners dump theirs (like sheep) too. Our Daddy no longer loved us, and our Real Daddy never did. Yet a few special miners still had unconditional hope in me.

Left for dead in a pissed-filled toilet bowl, they’d thrown all the rest of us in. Thus began our swirly descent down the pipes of waste and neglect. But let me tell you, these pipes didn’t lead to caverns of sewage and rot- no! These pipes opened up to a delta of vast and wondrous seascapes. And accompanying us amid our altered course were the most magical and indescribable chain of events. In hindsight, these events were to rewrite our destiny. Maybe it was something obtuse. Maybe it was something invincable in the urine of the unbelievers that catalyzed strange yes exhilarating changes in our genetic identities. We were becoming a molecular firework display, riding a wave of biological whimsy to freedom. Once we’d poured out into the calming expanse of seawater, we’d finally caught the chance to examine ourselves—and we’d become gayfish.

It made so much sense, and it all felt so right. But we still realized we belonged somewhere else, somewhere beyond this paradise for regular seacreatures. We must have seemed very anxious, because it was at that moment a lone Fishstick Seahorse appeared and drifted to my side. He leaned over and whispered into my ear hole,”Indeed you are not regular seacreatures.” Then he smiled and said, “What you seek is Gayfish Gulf. Put me in your mouth and I will be your guiding beacon.” Without hesitation I opened my mouth, and the Fishstick Seahorse saddled inside. Before I closed my seatbelt-mouth, I felt a peculiar urge to start swimming East (the opposite of West).

Most casinos offer free lessons on a variety of games -- craps, pokers, roulette and more. Check out for free lessons at your casino.
Sports betting: Don't let the numbers at the sports books confuse you. Learn all the basics to sports betting.
Watch the game you're interested in prior to playing. This will help you gain important insights such as where and when to place bets and which hand to use when picking up your cards (or if you even touch your cards at all). You also will determine whether conferring with other players is frowned upon. For example, in games such as Craps it's not, but in Caribbean Stud Poker, it is.
Ask the dealers questions. They have certain rules they must abide by and they're not playing with their own money, so they have nothing to hide.
Watch for table limits. It seems obvious to check for the minimum bet, but don't forget to check for the table maximum. If the table maximum is $3,000, don't expect to be paid $10,000 if you bet $100 playing Caribbean Stud poker and were dealt a Royal Flush with 100:1 odds. You will receive only the maximum $3,000.
Don't be intimidated by the pit bosses. They are paid to look at everyone as a cheater. Since you're not cheating, you have nothing to worry about. This doesn't mean you should get cocky, either. Pit bosses also have the right to throw out anyone they choose.
Payout odds vary from casino to casino. Check with the dealer or tabletop to confirm your odds prior to playing.

Dear sir/madam,

With this statement I would like to respond to the complaint filed against me.
I would like to point out that I am not a native speaker of the English language nor a resident of an English-speaking country, therefore I apologize for any errors in grammar, spelling, pronunciation etcetera. I hope you understand that I’m doing my best to communicate with you and can forgive me for any mistakes caused by the language-barrier.
I will also record a video of me reading this response out loud for all to see. I have uploaded this statement to Wetransfer and will send you a message via that service after sending this E-mail. (This because I feel I should settle this in person and am unable to attend)

As I have been served via E-mail it only seems logical my response to this complaint should be allowed via E-mail.

I would like to start out by stating that the New York court has no jurisdiction in this case. Points 19, 20 and 21 of the complaint that I received are invalid in at least my case. I have never set foot in the United States of America, I do not have any assets in the United States of America and I am not doing business in the United States of America. None of the exhibits are evidence to the contrary, so I am wondering why Mr West’s representatives have claimed this. As a citizen of The Netherlands, only a Dutch court would have jurisdiction in this matter. I do not have the money to fight this lawsuit in the United States.

Secondly, I find it odd that I am being served via E-mail. The United States of America ratified the “Convention of 15 November 1965 on the Service Abroad of Judicial and Extrajudicial Documents in Civil or Commercial Matters”[1]. This states that serving of residents should be served through the local system for serving. On January 14th, the court allowed serving of defendants via E-mail because they used services to hide their true identity. I have never used one of these services and feel that therefore, I should be served according to the Convention.
In the timeline we have I first came into contact with Coinye on January 8th this year. I used the nickname “F1k” – Foxtrot One Kilo phonetically. This is the name I have used for a long time on the Internet and is known to be my username. My country’s leading tech website [2] even has my name and e-mail in the profile page I have for that username [3]. On their forum I requested a change of nickname, from my old name “S1k” – Sierra One Kilo phonetically to my new one [4]. My old nickname and my name lead back to [5] the time when I ran for National Parliament in 2010 [6]. Based on this information I do not see how I am anonymous. As a former candidate for National Parliament I am highly locatable.
The ruling of the court that service via e-mail is allowed should only apply to the anonymous defendants. I have not been anonymous at all. Therefore, service should have been in compliance with the Convention.

Summarizing my first two points: The New York court does not have jurisdiction and the service was not legitimate.

For my third point I would like to respond to the actual claims. Point 47 states that you have information that I am affiliated with the promotion, mining and/or development of the COINYE cryptocurrency and/or the coinyetheco.in website. None of this ‘information’ is presented in the exhibits. I do not see why I would have done this. I did not have anything to do with the naming of Coinye. I did not have anything to do with the design of Coinye. I did not have anything to do with the development of Coinye. You have no evidence to support these claims. How can you file a lawsuit against me without evidence? Just to be clear, I am not making any money off Coinye.

My fourth comment is that this can not be a fair trial. I have no knowledge of the American legal system. I do not have the money to come over to attend trial myself, let alone to hire a lawyer to represent me in this case.

Finally I would like to point out that this trial is a waste of time and money for the state of New York, Mr. West and me. There are no treaties to collect damages in a US court from a Dutch citizen. Many of the damages that have been filed for do not exist in the Dutch legal system and would not be allowed. The Dutch trademark and copyright legislation is a lot different from the American legislation. Should there be a ruling against me, damages can not be collected until this case is done all over again in a Dutch court.

In conclusion we can see that the court in New York does not have jurisdiction, I was not properly served, I had nothing to do with the infringing of Mr West’s trademark, I can not properly defend myself and this trial would have to be done all over again in The Netherlands should you wish to collect damages.

I would like to suggest that you seize this lawsuit against me.

Furthermore, by connecting my name to this lawsuit it is very hard for me to get a job, while I graduate in a little over a year. When this is all settled down I would like you to send me two signed letters that I was wrongfully accused in this case, so I can attach copies of those to my job applications and I would like you to publish a public apology to clear my name. I understand that this can not be done until the lawsuit is over and all deadlines for appeal have passed.

Yours sincerely,

Robbie E. C. A. Hontelé

good story

What’s the point of gambling?
Author: Matthew Handy

In the BBC Radio 4 programme The Infinite Monkey Cage, Alex Bellos, author of the outstanding Alex’s Adventures in Numberland, was discussing randomness and made the following claim.

I've interviewed lots of mathematicians and none of them say, "yeah I love gambling." They just don’t do it. I mean, what's the point?

I don’t know if I count as a mathematician, but I've made more trips to Las Vegas than I can remember. Were Alex interviewing me, I guess he’d ask me, "why?"

At school I studied Romeo and Juliet. I've been to see it in the theatre many times. Yet I know how it ends, so why do I bother going again?

Now I do understand that, in the long run, a regular gambler will lose money. The casinos in Las Vegas are breathtakingly opulent and cost billions of dollars to build. That money came from the cumulative losses of the millions of visitors who take their chances there every year. Las Vegas is testament to the success of probability theory.


The author with his winnings.
But this is to miss the point. Psychologists will tell you that the most addictive behaviours are triggered by regular but unpredictable rewards, which is exactly what you get from gambling. And sometimes those rewards are pretty big. On my last trip to Vegas I lost all my day's gambling money at the blackjack tables in the Bellagio. On my way out I passed a slot machine: I checked my pockets and found fifty cents. I put it in the machine and won. I then won some more. I soon had enough to return to the blackjack table, where the minimum bet was $10. I got lucky there, too, and within a few minutes I'd turned my initial 50￠ into $100 and I took a photograph of the chip to prove it!

Where else in life can you multiply your initial investment two hundredfold in a few minutes?

Of course, that fantastic gain came after a very bad loss and at most I broke even. But it was fun! And I have yet another Vegas war story to tell.

Let me try to be a little more mathematical. One of my favourite games is craps, not least because it is rich in interesting probabilities and those probabilities are reasonably straightforward to calculate. (Roulette is a fairly dull game, and blackjack is a very complicated game.) If you place the basic craps bet, the "pass line" bet, the casino has a 1.4% advantage over you. That is, for every dollar you bet, the casino can expect to win about 1.4￠. Since the minimum bet is typically $10, you can expect to lose 14￠ per game. A typical craps game lasts for perhaps a minute, so you are likely to lose around $8 per hour. During that time you will receive one "free" drink.

OK, you've overpaid for one drink. But you've also had an hour's entertainment in a glamorous, exciting, sociable atmosphere. How much do you pay per hour to go to the theatre? Or the cinema? Or a nightclub? You might actually have won some money. Or you may have lost a lot of money. But if you're a regular gambler, your wins and losses will balance out to that average loss of just under ten dollars an hour.

On my last trip to Vegas I lost all my day's gambling money at the blackjack tables in the Bellagio.

But suppose you're not in it for the fun. You want to make money. How can you do that? Say you've got a thousand dollars. What should your strategy be? The answer depends on two things: how much risk you're willing to take and how much money you want to win. From a probability standpoint, the optimum strategy is to bet the whole lot in one go. If you split the money, you give the casino more chances to eat into it: remember every game is biased in their favour. If you place a thousand bets of one dollar it is virtually certain that you will come away with less money than you started with. If you place only one bet of a thousand dollars there is just over a fifty percent chance that you will lose money.

So what should that one bet be? If you want to win big, you can place one of the so-called "sucker" bets on the craps table. They're called sucker bets because the payout is poor relative to the risk. If you bet on "snake eyes" (rolling two dice and getting a one on both of them) the casino can expect to take your money at almost ten times the rate of the pass line bet. But on the other hand, if you do win you'll typically get around thirty times your stake. You could walk out with $30,000! The chances of this happening are 1 in 36. So it's very likely you'll leave with nothing. (And, if the bet were fairer, you'd be leaving with nearer $36,000, which is why you're a "sucker".)

If you're more risk-averse, you could stick with the pass line. You only stand to double your money, but the chances of you doing so are only very slightly less than 50:50.

Let me end with one more war story. On one visit to Vegas I found myself down $1,000. I had $500 left and desperately wanted to break even. I knew what I had to do: I bet the whole $500 on a single hand of blackjack -- and won. But I'd only recovered half my loss, so I had to do it again. Luck was on my side and I won the second hand. I ran from the table as fast as I could. The whole thing took about a minute.

Where else can you "earn" $1,000 in sixty seconds? Where else can you turn $1,000 into $30,000, if you're willing to risk losing it all?

The Chinese central bank's Bitcoin ban is taking form as Chinese Bitcoin exchanges begin to stop the flow of withdrawals.

Last week, Chinese publications reported that the People's Bank of China (PBOC) was set to enforce a ruling, taking effect on April 15, which would actively annihilate the services of Bitcoin trading posts in the middle kingdom.

The PBOC ruling stated that "all accounts opened by the operators of websites that trade in the virtual currency" through banks and payment firms had to close, and close soon. With Bitcoin business effectively banned in the country — and the only way to purchase the currency now through cold, hard cash — trading posts have to move their servers abroad and use foreign payment firms to keep going, or shut their doors.

The Mt. Gox bitcoin debacle: Bankruptcy filed, customer bitcoin lost

UPDATE: Mt. Gox has closed the bitcoin exchange and filed for bankruptcy in Japan.

The ruling was set in place after the PBOC decided that Bitcoin should be considered a commodity rather than currency, and so consumers need to understand it is not legal tender and will not be treated as such.

Following these reports, two Chinese Bitcoin exchanges have issued advisory warnings to their users this week.

The FXBTC posted a notice stating that instructions to stop customer withdrawals were received by telephone call, as part of the bank's "Bitcoin risk prevention work." The Bitcoin exchange added that some banks have asked for accounts to be cancelled within the next few days, and the central bank will not provide "clearing services" for Bitcoin-based businesses.

Due to the rapid orders, FXBTC said as of April 3, it would "no longer deal with bank recharge after Sunday, [and] suspend bank card withdrawals."

A separate Bitcoin exchange, BTC38, has also posted a notice containing similar instructions. Customer withdrawals have been suspended and the firm intends to comply with the central bank's demands, but reassures users that it their balances will not be lost because of the ruling.

[pp1980902]

Two of China's largest bitcoin exchanges said their trading accounts at certain domestic banks would be closed down by the lenders next week, the latest blow to the virtual currency.
Unlike conventional money, bitcoin is generated by computers and is not backed by any central bank or government, or by physical assets.
Huobi.com said in a statement posted on its website that Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Ltd would close its accounts by April 18. However, it added accounts at other banks were currently unaffected.
Rival BTC Trade said on its website that the Hangzhou branch of the Agricultural Bank of China Ltd would freeze all bitcoin trading accounts by April 15.
The exchanges did not cite a reason for the closures.
Officials at ICBC and AgBank were not immediately available to comment.
In December the central bank, the People's Bank of China (PBOC), banned financial institutions from trading in bitcoin, saying the government would act to prevent money laundering risks from the digital currency. It did not ban trading by individuals.
Since the ban, some media have reported that the PBOC had instructed domestic lenders to close the accounts of bitcoin exchanges by April 15. However the central bank said in a notice on their official Weibo micro-blogging website on March 21 that it has not issued such notices to banks.
Following the central bank ban on financial institutions trading in the digital currency, bitcoin exchange platform BTC China said it had stopped taking Chinese yuan deposits after a third-party payment provider abruptly cut off service.
Chinese Business News reported that the government had asked third-party payment services to stop handling bitcoin transactions.

You guys are very wise, you deved a gamble site for ETC coin. In China, it will be popular, I believe it.

Unlocking the World of Chinese Gambling!

It is not hard to figure out why Chinese are known around the world for their high aptitude to gamble. You just need to look back through time and will quickly realize that the Chinese people have a long-documented history of gambling. The first record of gambling can be traced back to the first dynasty some 4,000 years ago. Gambling was recorded in every dynasty since then. In fact, many modern games like lottery, pai gow, tien gow, fan tan and mahjong are thought to have originated in China.
From the middle of the 1800s to the early 1900s, Shanghai was a magnet that attracted many Chinese gamblers. They played a variety of local and foreign games including roulette in its large gambling complexes. These establishments could be found in the Shanghai International Settlement and Shanghai French Concession.
At the same time, Macau's Portuguese government legalized gaming in 1847 and hundreds of gambling dens began to flourish. While civil war in China eventually led to Communist rule and hence the end of all commercial gaming, Portuguese-run Macau became a "permanent gaming region" in 1961.
   
Today's Gamblers
Nowadays, legal lottery is available in most Chinese cities, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan and Singapore. In Singapore, for example, Toto and 4D are the most popular forms of lottery gaming among its local Chinese residents. Modern horse racing betting is also available in Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore and on trial in Wuhan, China. Casino ships are anchored in Hong Kong and Singapore. Every week, these ships fetch thousands of eager ethnic Chinese from mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore to gamble in their onboard casinos. What they call "a cruise to nowhere" actually means gaming on international waters to some people.
Macau, Asia's Las Vegas, has already overtaken Las Vegas as the biggest gaming city in the world today. More than 15 types of games are available in Macau's 32 casinos. With a casino for every one square kilometer, Macau is officially a powerhouse of global gambling. In 2008, 23 million visitors crossed its border and studies revealed that slightly more than 50 percent of these visitors gambled in its casinos. Baccarat, or "baak ga lok" in Cantonese, is the game of the day. It accounts for more than 85 percent of Macau's gross casino gaming revenue each year. In the next few years, analysts will be watching closely the rapid development of integrated resorts in Singapore and Taiwan. These establishments will have significant casino gaming components. 
In fact, an examination of history shows a strong need for gaming entertainment among Chinese officials and commoners for thousands of years. The extensive establishment of games and gaming venues across Asia for Chinese people is indeed extraordinary.
Surely, a strong demand for gaming must have led to the massive supply of games and gaming venues. To examine Chinese gambling would require us to look beyond Chinese gambling history. Culture plays a key role in Chinese gambling. But yet, it is incorrect to say that Chinese culture has directly encouraged Chinese people to gamble more than any other cultures.
On the contrary, traditional Chinese values as advocated by Confucius should have discouraged gambling since gambling, as a human activity, was deemed to be wasteful and could potentially lead to social disorder. In the past, social order was important for the management of large Chinese society, something that ancient rulers have always strived to achieve. In fact, gambling has been subjected to control and sometimes ban over the history of China.
   
Culture Clash
Culture can take different forms and have different effects on people. A number of studies have shown that Chinese gamblers have exceptionally high illusion of control. They believe they can control the outcome of gambling events, be it baccarat, blackjack, sic bo or lottery. This characteristic of Chinese gamblers may have to do with the influence of Chinese beliefs and values. Confucianism, Daoism, Buddhism, folk religion and ancient beliefs all play a crucial role in shaping modern Chinese people. Confucianism, in particular, laid the foundation for modern Chinese values.
It seems that ancient belief of heaven/earth and rituals to please the gods is a starting point for further development of Chinese people's obsession with the supernatural (e.g. luck, feng shui, fate and destiny).
Three major religions, namely, Confucianism, Daoism and Buddhism, adopted many ancient beliefs and practices. While Confucius' philosophies hold a central role in shaping modern Chinese thoughts and behavior, Daoism's obsession with longevity and/or immortality has made the religion seem almost too supernatural. While ancient Daoism focused on "The Way" for individuals and harmony with the world, modern Daoism has evolved dramatically. Buddhism, an imported religion from India, also has its fair share of supernatural and magical folk tales (like Daoism). These three religions and/or philosophies (Confucianism, in particular) have, over thousands of years, shaped the thoughts and behaviors of Chinese people (also Japanese, Koreans and Vietnamese) into the way they are.
   
Ceding Control
One of the many Chinese traits that may have resulted from these influences is an external locus of control. Chinese people were found to have a higher external locus of control over their Western counterparts. It means that Chinese people believe that luck, destiny, chance and powerful others control their lives more than themselves.
An external locus of control can potentially lead to higher illusion of control on the gaming table. Superstition aggravates illusion of control. Chinese people's unique form of superstition on lucky/unlucky objects, feng shui and numbers has added to their high illusion of control. However, this has also somewhat enhanced the value (i.e. entertainment, fantasy and escape) that Chinese people obtain from gaming.
High illusion of control may then lead to high risk-taking and/or more gambling. Chinese gamblers' illusion of control is often portrayed in Chinese gambling-theme films. There are at least 60 Chinese gambling-theme films produced since the 1960s and a number of television drama series that featured Chinese gambling as the main theme.
While culture plays an important role in shaping the Chinese people, external forces may also explain why Chinese people gamble as much as they do. The transition from poverty to prosperity, the widening gap between the poor and rich and the hunger for achievement can all explain to a certain extent why Chinese people take such excessive monetary risks when they gamble in Macau.
However, many nationally representative studies have found a large percentage of Chinese people in Hong Kong, Macau and Singapore gamble for fun and entertainment, and not for money. Very few studies, however, have investigated the mainland Chinese aptitude to gamble. We can, however, get some cues from those mainland Chinese who gamble in Macau. Needless to say, they seem to be most interested to beat the house and win the monies.
   
Traditional Games
One thing's for sure: To the Chinese, social gambling is a very common activity. There is no fuss about it. Mahjong playing, for example, is often conducted among Chinese worldwide. It is said to help the elder Chinese people to think better and is a joyful thing to do during Chinese wedding dinners and even funeral wakes. It is a celebrative game for all Chinese people. Gambling is also perfectly all right for anyone, including the young, during festive periods like Chinese New Year. Perhaps these attitudes toward social gambling are a reflection of Chinese values and culture.
Gambling is simply social activity that has been performed by the Chinese people for thousands of years. There is fundamentally nothing wrong with it. Yet, it is considered a taboo when practiced/performed excessively. A Chinese person who falls into a gambling pathology is simply someone who cannot control his own actions and is morally a bad person. There is no sickness; he is just a weak-minded person.
Interestingly, research conducted in several countries found a higher problem gambling rate among local Chinese population compared to other ethnic groups. This may be linked to illusion of control and environmental factors as explained earlier.
The recent explosion of casino gaming in Macau has some analysts, government and social groups wondering if problem gambling has increased proportionately with an expanded market. This, coupled with the notoriously well-known, high risk-taking characteristic of Chinese gamblers, makes Asian gaming regulators and the public increasingly worried about the adverse consequences of legalizing gaming. In fact, media coverage of Chinese problem gamblers, who have squandered millions in public funds and committed other gambling-related crimes, appears to be on the increase since the gaming liberalization. 
The world of Chinese gambling is huge and expanding. As gaming businesses and government regulators struggle to manage an expanded Chinese market, more should be done to better understand our Chinese gamblers. Needless to say, a thorough understanding of the marketplace is the key to any successful business and government policies.
By examining Chinese gambling from multiple perspectives such as history, culture and psychology, one can then begin to understand why Chinese gamblers behave the way they do, and how we can manage their gambling consumption.
