I would agree with everything on the list you provided, especially enabling 2FA verification. This is important in case your account is compromised and accessed by unauthorized individuals. With 2FA, they won't be able to withdraw money and steal it from you. However, there is still a risk of using the funds to play on the site, so be aware of the security features available to you. Use them and create strong passwords.

Perhaps avoiding excessive alcohol and drugs should be another consideration. Excessive alcohol consumption can lead to a state of unconsciousness, rendering the brain incapable of making rational decisions, and the only chance of winning becomes a matter of luck alone. However, there are still many games that require skill, such as card games or others.

An unconscious mind can lead to issues like reckless and uncontrollable decision-making, which can jeopardize your assets. Stay in a sober state of mind when engaging in gambling activities.


Yes, this one! Most of gamblers usually drink alcohol while gambling because it adds kicks and excitement while playing. And there's nothing wrong about that because the main purpose why we gamble is to have fun. But we have to remember that it should be in moderation, and that we should set limits in order to avoid any problems and risks. And you're right, too much of everything is bad, and excessive consumption of alcohol while engaging in any gambling activities will cause problems.

As from what I observed, most of the aggressive and irritable players, are under the influence. And what's worse about this, is aggression does not only affect yourself, but also the people around you. It might also create an unsafe environment with other gamblers. But from what I know casinos have policies when it comes to regulation of alcoholic drinks in any gambling places. But this is only applicable for casinos and not online casinos.

It is true that staying in a sober state can be good or help us to proper decision but has that really worked in gambling activities? I know some drunk who usually win their game against the sober person who is even careful not to make a mistake yet they do make that mistake they are running away from. It is not about sobriety of mind as far as gambling is concern but your ability to deduce the right prediction for the game especially soccer.

This only possible because gambling is pure luck so regardless of your state of mind, the result will still the same since it’s random. The only difference is that you can control your bets when you are in sober state of mind compared when you are in the influence of alcohol.

Winning gambling is very hard even though you are focus with clear mind. Playing while drunk will surely expose you in too much risk of losing everything and it also defeats the purpose gambling which should be source of fun.

Honestly this is funny but actually the truth on this discussion because many gamblers work under the influence of alcohol and this is not good enough for their health and the safety of their mental reasonings, taking drugs or liquor will not help towards having better gambling experience than worsen the whole thing with them, doing so could also increase the probability of making mistakes, getting toxified is not a means of getting accurate with gambling.
Some gamblers are always conscious while gambling, and these are the ones who can really enjoy gambling as it should. They are not under the influence of alcohol and can still gamble calmly and not be tempted by all temptations because they know it will only have a bad impact on them. They also always check everything before leaving the casino and make sure their gambling account has activated everything related to securing their gambling account, including activating their gambling account 2FA.

But when gamblers like to drink alcohol while gambling, they may stay calm and won't get drunk. But in any case, if we are gambling, it is better not to consume alcohol because it can make us forget ourselves.

And remember - Have fun and gamble safely Smiley

Everything has all been covered but you forgot to add this coming from your own post, gambling is all about having fun, and if you think in another way that's where gambling is not safe.

Casinos promote themselves as an entertainment platform, they want to protect their players' welfare by warning them not to indulge too much in gambling so people should have fun to gamble safely.

I hope everyone feels that way. When we say gambling is fun, it sounds like entertainment where we're going to spend to get value. Casinos would say 'gamble for fun,' which is just another way of saying 'enjoy and pay,' if you know what I'm saying. Actually, if we are serious about gambling and intend to succeed by making a consistent profit, we should not treat it as fun. It should be approached seriously, like a job, with the goal of getting better every time.

Good advice, 2FA activation will add an extra layer of security but don't let this be the only security between your account and the hackers, I prefer using more than one security measure, how about extra code to your email box?

I haven't heard about people buying gambling accounts but I do know that some crazy people are asking me if I have any account on casino that's VIP, I believe they have some hidden agenda to carry out using a high rank casino account, they promised to pay some percentage after they use the account but I don't see any reason to let them, I think maybe that's because it's not easy to buff up your casino account into a VIP account, it costs a lot maybe that's why?

My gambling strategy is using my budget every week, once I lose the money I won't be adding any penny into the account until the next week, this is the rules I set for myself and this is what is keeping me away from gaming addiction, I don't care if I can make a lot of money through gambling or not, I prefer to expect that from something more sanity.

Source of income is like the document that is request for when a gambler wants to pass a level 4 kyc verification on Stake.com, so yeah, proving source of funds to casinos is nothing new, the only problem there is that, even before the casino allows a player deposit such a huge amount of money, the casinos should have asked the gambler or user to pass all level verification which includes proofing the source through which all the fund  the gambler will be using to gamble in the casino comes from.

That would be a fair practice, but everyone does exactly the opposite because they don't mind someone losing $100k gambling, but at the same time they resist paying out winnings and demand proof of where the money came from. It seems quite hypocritical to me, because if you are ready to accept a deposit without any conditions, then you should have the same standards when paying out winnings.

What they are doing right now is trying to cheat the player, but such a matter can't be handled carelessly, the user should stand his ground, and if he has the capability, he should seek legal help, this is if the casinos hasn't paid him already.

I wouldn't call it cheating, but adjusting the rules as it suits them in a certain situation. The casino has the right to request KYC or the origin of the deposit at any time, and I think that they are legally covered there, and every player who won in a legal way and with money that can prove the origin will get their winnings sooner or later. Of course, unless it's a scam casino, but that's a completely different story.

The 2FA is a must since it is where you can protect yourself from hack attempts even if you are using your main email account although that is not recommended too.
I have never heard of buying a gambling account yet and I have also never heard of the news about being scammed this way.
For us here in this forum, we all know which are the reputable casinos in the gambling industry and there are top-of-the-line names that are advertising here and outside the forum.
I think KYC should be an optional thing but for those who are playing big amounts, this must be done just to avoid having a hard time in both deposit and withdrawals in the future.
Gambling sites are not wallets, never keep an amount that we are afraid to lose. There could be bad circumstances that may happen and we will avoid being dragged into that problem if we just keep the right amount that we will gamble. Transaction fees are not that high anymore, we can just deposit again if we lose our initial funds.

      • Do not leave large sums of money in casinos - by Zlantann
      I have experience with this and I also never recommend anyone leave their money in a casino especially if it is a large amount of money, make sure to withdraw any winnings and leave some to play with so that when the site goes bankrupt and leaves the business, you will not experience major losses or If you want to stop gambling and leave the casino for a long time make sure to withdraw all your money in that casino.

      And remember - Have fun and gamble safely Smiley
      Actually, of all the things listed above, the most important thing before gambling are these words, always remember that gambling is just for fun and not gambling for money, let alone big wins, so make sure you gamble wisely so you don't go beyond the limits and end up experiencing Addiction will certainly harm ourselves in the future, gambling must be responsible by always using money that is ready to lose. understand every risk when gambling

      I guess one of the essentials right there is to make sure their phone and email number were created on that account so the possible hacker didn't compromise those and possibly steal funds, others a lot of layers of security are given by the casino but of course, people are lazy to seek it and use it and afterward they raise an issue they got hacked, or lock by the casino due to this possible incident of stealing of information. Also for me the best is to don't store most of your funds into your casino again we know your active and tired to transfer but again its not your funds unless you have the asset withdrawn to their platform. Dont use the casino as wallet like were saying in exchange.

      2FA security and never connect your wallet that have your entire funds to online casino that are play in which requires you to connect your wallet their risk of gaining unauthorized access to your wallet is higher and you may lose your entire balance through such act.

      More also since the popularity of cryptcucrency casino have increased and a lot of new casinos are coming up,  it is important to only play on casinos that we know have the reputations and abilities to secure are funds on them and avoid running after bonuses since that is the fastest way to get scammed by shade casino because we have a lot of them around.
      Every time you access a gambling site there will always be a request to activate 2FA and I sure everyone will do it as one of the easier efforts to minimize the security of the accounts we have but when it comes to connecting wallets to casinos it seems like gamblers will never do it.
      Except that what is used is a web3-based casino and currently lots of web3-based casinos are popping up.
      If you really want to play by connecting your wallet to the casino it a good idea to use a spare wallet that we made specifically for gambling to avoid bad things like asset theft.

      There are more than 5 of the largest and most trusted casinos and even have a very good reputation so we will never be confused in choosing the best casino.
      Trying new things from other casinos may add to your experience but we have to be smart in choosing new sites.

      Enabling 2FA is a security measure recommended by casinos so that we can rest easy and don't have to worry about hacking gambling accounts. Usually, that's what gamblers who care about their accounts will do, especially those who often use more money.

      But for the average gambler, many of them still haven't activated 2FA because they think it's unnecessary. After all, they don't keep large amounts of money in their gambling accounts. They just want to come to the casino, gamble and leave the casino.

      Setting a loss limit is necessary to reduce the number of losses we will experience. By setting limits, we can also avoid gambling addiction so we can enjoy gambling as entertainment.

      Aside from this, make sure that you also secure your email account with the 2FA security so you'll be more secured.
      Aside from having fun we should ensure our safety when we gamble and yes we should also have our limits because its more reasonable to gamble when you stay within your limit. Choosing the right site is also advisable and make sure to follow their terms and conditions. Every gambling site have their own unique feature, make sure to explore it.

      What do you mean by safe? Safe from getting the funds lost? Or safe from leaking your information that you provided to the casino while doing KYC? If you wants your funds to be stored safely, then don’t share your login credentials to anyone. Enabling 2FA also helps to secure your account with another level of protection. Now regarding the data leak, then only join the casinos which are trusted and have good reputation. If possible avoid casinos where KYC is mandatory.
