We recently invented this rock, paper and scissor contest in office and bets are hillariously unreal like treating lunch, half of tbe bread, a service, couple of candies, rubber bands and ofcourse money. This is somehow our way to release stress. The person who will reach to five wins and the game starts with a tag.

Usually it's informal kind of gambling type that usually being held by community,college,etc
IMO, these kind for gambling type have less demand so it's unpopular gambling type that want to be include on bitcoin gambling site.

But if we talk about E-sport, they have a chance for example clash royale or clash of clan war competition that reward in BTC
Hmm, what informal kind are you talking about? Not being regulated but still enjoyable? Or just some spontaneous game you and your friends from college manage to do. I think those kinds of gambling games is really for entertainment, nothing else. Maybe it's only known for a circle of friends.

I have played those games and I'm only up to arena 6 or 7, I think. It would be awesome since it has 2v2 mode now. More possible profit.

It's either your friendship is of the highest level or you and your friends are very wealthy people. If a friend lost to me $200 I'm pretty sure we would stop being friends after that. There's even a saying where I live, if you want to ruin a friendship allow money be involved in the relationship. At first, after reading your reply I even started thinking on giving $0.01 value to the chips with "1" written on them, but then I remembered the saying.
It's probably our friendship are at the highest level, winning $200 from someone is a great thing (for the winner) but my friends wouldn't approve that kind of amount. It's like being in business right? It's hard to be involved with someone you already have a relationship with and money is almost what everyone wants, which is not a good thing.

No, it's not a drinking game, if you are asking about what I wrote. A bottle of wine/whiskey/rum serves as a prize for those who won the competition. I meant that the winner doesn't take it home, but rather shares it with those who lost, and everyone is happy. Smiley Actually I wouldn't recommend playing drinking games to anyone because excessive amounts of alcohol can be very bad for your health.
I think when it's wine, they say it has blood-related benefits, where it can strengthen blood flow or something. Something of too much would really be bad. lol.
Normal games for gambling I think are poker and dice games and to somehow sports betting. These are easy games for gambling especially sports betting and dice games which depend totally on luck. No special experience and skills required for these games. Poker is little bit tough compare to other two. I normally bet on sports games. It is easy for making money.

Obviously everyone did that atleast once in their life time,not for money sometimes just like for dare things too.I do bet on the online multiplier games too but which is not really interesting like the betting on casinos because where our life time can change in a moment if we are extremely lucky.
Most of the people that say they will be extremely lucky turned out not winning anything. I guess it's just once in a life time happening or something. Online multiplier games like dice you mean? I'm not sure if that is what you mean though.



Maybe we all have the experience in the normal game like for example, and we play dota or the other games. And we are bet for $100 for the winner, and if someone wins the game, he can get all the money. I have this experience too, and I guess that we have the same experience in another game.
You are talking about the map in Warcraft III? Frozen throne? That's my first game in DotA long before DotA 2 was released. Tht's a big wager especially if it was a long time ago because I was still a student that time and I don't even have that kind of amount lol. Gamers who go up to the point where they are really competitive and they start betting money, I think that's the specific term you are talking about.

Yes, it is but unfortunately, many people become addicted because they think that they can get more fun by playing another game. They use more money to get another experience in the other game because they think that they can win the other games but the truth is they only lose more money.

Maybe we all have the experience in the normal game like for example, and we play dota or the other games. And we are bet for $100 for the winner, and if someone wins the game, he can get all the money. I have this experience too, and I guess that we have the same experience in another game.

I have done this many times already in many situations. In a basketball game, in a computer game like Dota 2 or Mobile Legends etc. I used to gamble with my friends in normal games. Gambling is not only found in casino. It can be found anywhere and anybody can gamble as long as there is a competitions.

Casinos or gambling site becomes medium where you can bet or play against other or computer. This is a online method. But we do have a offline method as well where people between each other bets on something and have the money placed on their bets.

Probably it's common that I initially thought or people are just attracted to the thought of gambling. What type of normal games are you talking about? Is it just Dota 2 and Mobile Legends? I haven't played with most of what you said and definitely no competition yet. I think as long there are people who want to risk their money, the gamble could happen. That's just how common it is in my opinion.

Can we call them as betting or it also just fall unders the gambling? Because I believe that gambling can be based on luck most of the time but playing with normal games not depends on the luck it depends on the experience and skills.

When you gamble there is no friend and stranger. Gambling is gambling no matter with whom you are playing. But it is important that the games should be in friendly atmosphere. No reasoning, no misbehave and no shouting especially with your friends. These things are not good for your friendship. Gambling is not necessary but you should not quit friendship.
I think as long as you are playing the right game for you and you would win, that's what would matter. All people have something inside themselves that prefer themselves and selfishly pick everything that would benefit oneself. I think that's just human nature is and still do. I think you wouldn't have a friendly atmosphere (if you are playing with friends) because there is money involved but if there is an understanding, probably it could work out.



I think betting with friends in some ordinary games or events is a classic way of making fun. I used to do it with friends also in cases like world boxing championship, wrestling in tv or betting on basketball teams and horse race betting. It is fun but I dont see people doing it anymore. Any game that involves money is called gambling.
That's what gambling is made for, entertainment. It's fun when there's a live event that you are watching and you would either have the face of a winner or the face of a loser. You would see live regret that way. Lol.



I know will be betting blockchain betting exchange Mevu where will be possible for users to bet on anything they want to bet create his own betting events

I don't have any idea what Mevu is so, oh well. Is that a gambling site or a currency exchange? Post a link, and I would check it out.

There are a lot of chances that people can gamble, like when you try a drinking game, where you watch a movie, and you are going to drink when that character do a specific thing or something like that. I have done that, and it's entertaining but it's not that common to do anymore

I have a lot of multiplayer games in my PS4, like Tekken, UFC, Injustice, etc. My friends and I don't go to competitions, but we make our own, we start betting stuff or sometimes just money with whoever who wins the bracket.

Has anyone made a simple competition with friends and won a lot of money? Or something out of the ordinary, instead of playing in the casino but still having the chance to earn money. Share your thoughts.

This is more common nowadays now that there are pvp games available in smartphones. I've been part of groups that held competition to who will be the games winner. Not sure if this is considered gambling tho even if it involves money. It's actually nice to do it since it's more like a skill game than a probably fair game compared when you are gambling in casinos.
Yes that is right but I think that online young generation can know about it and can play gambling on it, while the rest of the people like to continue their traditional way of playing gambling. I think that it is even not possible in such area where internet is not present or even internet service is not too much good there.
I agree.It may be a good one but for those people who live in areas who have poor internet connection would not find it interesting.We used to play cards at home with my relatives and friends and yes it involves money but not as big like in casinos.So in times i want to have fun and no big amount of money on hand,i just stay at home and play with them.

Hey yes I used to do it with my friends and sometimes with total strangers, we used to play counter strike back then and sometimes we gambled within our inner circle, and at times when we met new people we pitched them the idea and they joined in. When we were indoors we used to gamble on Fifa games on ps2 and Ps3, but those was back in the past now we stick to sports or casino bets. As for the money we made I won't call it a fortune, let's just say extra income to keep one going.
I always play dice and poker games for gambling. I think these two are simple games for gambling. Mostly I play dice game because it needs no experience and depends on luck only. Game time is also short and you can play many games in very short time. Poker takes some time and also needs experience because of bluffing. Good bluffer can win the game easily.

Well I am sorry about that, it made me remember those great things in my childhood. You know, my hands kept typing the things that happened that time. I also remember that we also used to play Basketball at that time, I am not a great player but I do want to be part of the game since I also bet my money on that team, though as I said, I am not a great player so I just usually hope my team wins.
You don't have to say sorry, we all had those times where you fail to type the right word, lol. Is that why you are sorry for?

Wow. It's okay as long as you play continuously, you would be better in playing when you are consistent. You could become a great player if you always play. Hmm. It somehow defeats the purpose of betting with the team if you also play in it (if you think of it as sportsbooks) but if you play because of other people, then it's fine. I think everyone wants for their team to win.



Yeah, back in the days me and my mate who at that time staying in one flat and during weekends we have this sort of party. We're all playing PS and each has its own character, lol, we will invent and call our on moves, we will be having a winner-take-all bets. Most of the time the winner will have to treat us though, probably some beers or late dinner, damn, those were the days.

Oh, you live together huh, I think it's fun to be like that because if you stay in a rented place you could do anything you want. What game did you play then? I can't seem to think what type of game you could do that except if it's WWE or something. But the stats of your character would be really low. I remember instant noodles while playing, or it's the wager of the teams. Lol.

Wow, this is really reminiscing the past when we are just a young boy being curious to what is happening to our worlds. We do bet our money unto spiders but we don't use a stick, we a plastic box where we can watch the fight outside since it is a see-through. I used to cry whenever I lose my money and my spider there being killed. We also bet on this thing called "teks", like pogs but it is rectangle in shape.
I think you had the wrong placement of your finger when typing "happening". I prefer to stay ergonomic.  Wink

Anyways, I haven't tried any of those but just watch. It would be easier if it was in a plastic lunch box, freezer safe or something like that. Children are somewhat emotional, so probably that's why you cry. I remember having things like that and just flipping it, like a coin toss.

Well I am sorry about that, it made me remember those great things in my childhood. You know, my hands kept typing the things that happened that time. I also remember that we also used to play Basketball at that time, I am not a great player but I do want to be part of the game since I also bet my money on that team, though as I said, I am not a great player so I just usually hope my team wins.

Yes of course, in our area we do simple betting like playing basketball or even playing online games which we bet of money. Sometimes playing simple games and do the betting makes you think of how much it cost to play at the casino where in a lot is at stake.
I think is pretty common, especially now, to bet with money. Or sometimes they pay it with paying for in the court. That's what my friends do most of the time if they play against people who come from other regions of the place. It is very different if it's a casino that you are playing in, comparing bets to it, it could be close but the rate of playing is different of course. You could employ strategies with both but in basketball, you need real skills, physical stuff.

It is really fun and it is more exciting when there are more big spiders and more children want to fight the spiders they've caught on the mountains. Sometimes these spiders can be seen on the side of provincial roads.

I know that it is just a game, a way of having fun while we are in our childhood but when we are children, cock fighting is so popular in our place that the way of betting of them in cock fighting was influenced by how we bet on our spiders. Even the adults bet on some of the spider's fight but as I said, the bet at that time is not that much, it is just really for fun.
There are a lot of big spiders lurking in the woods, knowing that it would be in trees or any other place you could find cobb webs. Sometimes I remember riding our bikes and just seeing possible sightings of them. It's fun when you have that friend who is scared and you cannot control them freaking out. It's so funny.

Cockfighting is still famous and there are a lot of wagers coming in and out. Some have stadiums just for that. I have a relative who is joining there and earning a lot of money but it's just that source of money. It's not that well if you just have that hobby. It's not a long term source of funds, except if you own the stadium.

It is funny that we prohibit kids these days to gamble while in our childhood days, we are the ones that gamble all the time despite of us in the younger age. I think that is just a reflection that we should not tolerate them to gamble.

We are the ones who has the experience and knowledge about gambling and so we should know how to stop them and make them understand the risks and future effects of gambling to themselves. My favorite gambling game in my childhood is betting on spiders we caught in the mountains. We catch spiders, put it in a stick and let them fight to death. I've won a lot of money that time but I am just a child that time, that money I'm winning that time is so small compared to what I am getting with my pay right now.
I have never thought of it that way, but it is true. I think parents that see their kids doing gambling or anything related to it has thought to themselves that they might get addicted, but the truth is, they are still children, and they might forget it unless it brings an essential memory to thought.

Wow, that's an awesome game. I remember that, and now I have seen videos about it, and giant spiders don't mean it's a strong spider. Some spiders are smaller but is more deadly. It's just a hobby, and its a game, not a money making thing. As long as it's fun.
