Using a burner is not a bad idea, and keeping mail separate is kind of a must have for nearly all your life deals regardless is you are going to be playing on-line or not. It is not that easy to actually keep your information private and unlinked from your different "lifes" to be honest, one would need to follow a 200 pages manual to make sure the information remains segregated.

That is why it is said to be probably fair. As a gambler, one should know that not every time  luck shines on them so therefore, there must always be a time when one would  win and also time when it would not be in their favour so that is how the gambling game rolls. So while going to gamble it should always be at the mind of a gambler to know that such could be the outcome of the game he it she wants to gamble.

Gamblers are humans and therefore could go at any extent to cover their lapses and in that course something otherwise might take place. Be it amateur or responsible gambler, sometimes things just works out that way and the gambler might out of self control decide to chase his or her loss and in that course, records more losses.

A person needs to understand and accept the potential outcomes before starting to gamble, you can't expect to win all the time when the results are totally dependent on your luck and you can't always be lucky.

Responsible gamblers don't do that, it's a practice done by amateurs who don't understand how things actually work and they don't have any idea about gambling in the first place, all they have ever thought was that they can earn a lot of money from gambling and it's as easy as drinking water which is not true and when they face the reality, they just can't accept it.

     -    At this point, you are right, mate. The email that will be used in a casino here in crypto gambling should be the casino's only; don't use an email that you have been using personally for a long time. But in KYC, it's our choice whether we give or not.
We know that, as others say, once you have given the Kyc, the risk is there.

We don't know or are not sure if they will use it for good or for bad; we have no idea. It would be good if they didn't use it for evil intent. But in my experience, I have not yet known that my documents have been used for bad things because, so far, the casino that I gambled at seems to be fine somehow.

I think it is not only about money but also the time allocation, the emotions and control.  Losing heads means losing control over something.  In short we must gambling responsibly and moderate our gambling activities.


I agree that playing in a reputed site give us peace of mind and enable us to play with full focus.  This also affect our gambling experience because we will never enjoy playing in a casino when there is doubt in our minds.

I think these one are real serious:
- Not losing your head when gambling that means only playing with the money that we can afford to lose.
- Secondly only playing on the reputed sites. Yeah I mean there hundreds of them getting developed every other month and it becomes confusing in deciding to stick to one or two or ten casinos at the same time. The only thing that makes us jump to other casinos is their promotions. Whenever they are new they will throw any sort of promotion our way and make us feel pristine. But that’s just temporary as way to get our ass registered on their site. It’s far better to check the reputation (that no one can guarantee) and then only step in to play.

This is extensive article for sure. I did not know there are other articles written by legends around here. Good to see quality content here.

For sure he might be talking about separate account which would really be pertaining about emails been used and numbers on which in case there's some breach of those information then he/she wont really be able

to be worried about if ever that happens since its not his main email.Its always been that recommended on doing so on which making use of separate emails for you to be able to make yourself that
avoid with those kind of situations. Security or putting up yourself on somewhat less risks would really be acquired through these kind of actions which it is somewhat that pretty basic or in default if we do talk
about safety. Staying safe could really be pertain whether on security of your account literally or safe on the sense that you are really that making yourself that been wary about the potential
risks of gambling addiction.

Whatever the thing is, the main important is that you should really be wary about on the right things that needs to be done and things need to be avoided so that
you wont really be experiencing some problems or issues afterwards.

This is something I agree with but not only for the reasons you state, another reason is that maybe at some point in time you would like to take a break from gambling, whether the break is permanent or temporary does not matter, however this is almost impossible to do if you do not keep you personal accounts and your gambling accounts separated, as now everything you do is tracked online and at some point you will receive all kind of spam and notifications related to gambling that at the time you are not interested on seeing, but that could eventually persuade you to go back to gambling way sooner than what you wanted.

The techniques are not really that specific. Mask thyself with a VPN, only use trusted sites that have a reputation and mostly good comments and good marketing on this forum and exercise common sense - if it looks too good be sure it is too good. Anyone in crypto that has not learned this should not be surprised if thing go south. Think very carefully in any situation in which your money and you are parting ways.

In my opinion, one of the ways for a person to stay safe when using a casino is to place money in a phased manner, for example a person creates an account at a casino, but that person has 300$ allocated to gambling, that 300$ is an amount that this person will not need in case he loses everything, so what this person should do is deposit 50$ in the casino and play, in case he wins and makes him have more than 50$, then withdraw the profit and keep the 50$ you deposited, but in case you lose all 50$ then deposit another 50$ in the casino and play with the 50$ you deposited, in case you lose all 50$ again, then deposit another 50$ again and play with him

With this, this person will not lose all their money if the casino becomes a scam, but what I have seen is that many people have already forgotten where to keep money and in their wallet, so people take all the money they have destined for games and deposit it everything in the casino and when the casino becomes a scam, people despair because that was a value that they could have placed a lot of bets on and instead of doing that, the casino became a scam and stole all their money. This idea of mine also applies to new casinos, people shouldn't put a lot of money into a new casino right away

they should put money in phases when the person also wants to use a new casino, that way even when the new casino becomes a scam it will not steal all the money from the person, the main capital destined for games would be in a very secure wallet and the casino would just would have managed to steal little money that the person deposited at the casino. but many people don't do this because they look at the bonus requirement and as we know, casinos set a high minimum value for people to deposit so that they have a bonus, and this sign-up bonus has other requirements that are much more difficult to meet, but the people don't listen

Well, you are very close (if not on the spot) about this. We can't be safe if put "all eggs in one basket", we can't trust one service with all we have. I gamble for years, and I trusted many services with my funds, but never with all I had. That's the difference. So people should never go all in just like that before they test the service. So the best practice to stay safe is to deposit 10% of your amount (more or less), and if that goes right you can deposit more, if not just stay away from that.

If you don't keep yourself safe, nobody else will do it for you...

All links you provide OP is very good and for sure many new gamblers have learn a lot of things through that gathered Link.  And yes before we gamble we must check first the sites and  also our account in order to avoid such mistakes. We must check the casino if it is legit or not and we must check our account if we violate the rules and regulations from the casino or not .

Yes, maybe that is what he meant, my understanding also interpreted the same thing about what he said.
The goal is to protect his own account in case of hacking, and it is quite useful to anticipate it, using a different email account at each casino I think is good and I also do that, even though I use the same cellphone number, because I have a limit on having a number. mobile phone.

So far I don't think it's a hassle, sometimes if I feel that the number I'm using is already registered at two different casinos and I want to open another account at another casino, I can use my friend's or other family's cell phone number, even though they don't know I'm registering. yourself to create an account on the gambling platform. lol

What do you mean by games? Separate account for each games on a single casino? I think it's not right, maybe separate account account for each casino. I'm talking about the email and phone number that is used on a casino. It's not a bad way to avoid being hit by a catastrophic loss in case you account gets hacked but I think it is a hassle to have so many alternative email especially phone number where not every country can get multiple phone number. It's not that clear for me on what do you exactly mean by separate account for games but that is my guess.

For me, the best practice is to have a separate account for games, an email and phone number that I use only for this activity. It’s easier to separate the industry and everyday life, and thus the chance of my account being hacked is much less since it doesn’t appear almost anywhere.I know several people who do the same.

This means that having self-control is a must for all gamblers, although many don't realize it and lose self-control when they gamble. We should learn this self-control well so that we don't experience incidents like them because we have to be responsible with the money we use for gambling. With this self-control, you can limit your gambling and will always stick to it because you don't want to find yourself experiencing a lot of losses. That way, we can be safe from the problems that often arise in gambling and don't have to experience what other people experience.

You are right in what you say, but sometimes very strange things happen, because basically things in a casino have rules and things that sometimes we don't even read, because when we register in a casino and the Tos come out, there are many who don't read, and there are things so detailed that sometimes we overlook them, I have seen cases that are very strange in casinos, such as people who make bets with little money, then win very large amounts and are lucky enough that when they request the withdrawal They are granted it, then they come back a few days later to play safely and they come across a notice that they have been banned for abuse of the system, so what I wonder is, why? If the person deposited and played normally, legally, and won a lot, and was able to make the deposit, I don't see any kind of porblam there, then this has occurred, and it seems strange to me, because sometimes we without cul 'pa, out of ignorance, we can do something that is not allowed, but that is not considered abuse but rather normal behavior, I call that good luck, and I don't see that they have done any kind of robbery, egtadfa to the casino, then Sometimes things can be very difficult with casinos.

There are many other cases that are strange, some players who make deposits from their country with a VPN, play, and win, but then when they withdraw the casino does not allow it, then that is bad for me, because if not They allow the use of VPN, the casino must detect that you are using VPN and must not allow a deposit to be made, so in the event that the player had lost the money, what happened? The casino contacts you and tells you, will they return your deposit? Well no, it's just that they don't even do it with the dragon spheres with the 3 wishes, but rather the money stays there, so there are cases that fail in that sense and when they are given the respective cusascines they defend themselves by saying that it is not allowed to play From VPN, those are the things that cannot be missed.

Not only this this but hacker usually rare to hack players if they don’t know any credentials for the account. If you didn’t share any of your casino account online and doesn’t open mail from unknown source then your account will be safe even without the 2FA because hacker donhave any lead to hack your account. This is the reason why most hacker target casino server since it’s exposed publicly and much easier to target with the right tool compared on brute forcing unknown account without any guarantee if the account contains balance or not.

2FA security level give the gambler another level of security and that can translate into so many avoidable security challenges and in the event that the casino is hacked your account may have another possible security set that will give the hacker another level of job to get by it and still your balance.


This is why most of the hackers are targeted at casino hot wallet instead of gamblers accounts because the hackers already know that some accounts already have a 2FA security level and will be difficult to break in.

Gamblers must know their purpose for gambling, if they only want a big win they must be able to understand the risks they will face afterwards, because most people who gamble don't understand the risks, so they don't care when they experience defeat, all they know is chasing defeat. When they experience a big loss, they only realize it, that's what often happens nowadays.

Don't be surprised if many gamblers experience big losses because of their own mistakes in not limiting their gambling budget and also the mistake of using a healthier mindset, namely considering gambling as just having fun. I'm sure that with a mindset like that, it usually won't be affected by big wins so gambling is more calm and controlled. But many gamblers play beyond their limits so they go too far and end up getting addicted and experiencing big losses.
