thats right playing poker against house can be boring as most of the time house has more skills there needs to be
a site which allows you to gamble against other players to make it more competitive and more fun to gamble

That depends on the player, if the player is really good and with the touch of luck, he can beat the house. If the player is against an AI, all the result and action of an AI is random and it is for the player to figure it out. Though no matter how skillful you are investing is always better than gambling since risk in that venture can always be mitigated.

Yeah in the end luck are the only thing matter in gambling, it's so powerful when it found you. Unfortunately there's no way to make it always by your side, it's completely random. Where if you compare it to investment that you can find your luck getting closer to you whenever you do a good analysis.

Investing is always smart thing to do, because you have better chance to make profit in long term. But in Gambling 99% chance, you will lose it.

exactly investing is also more profitable because many people are gambling daily and losing lot of funds which generates a huge amount of profit for us rather than gambling which depends on our luck and you can lose more

no question about that, its just an honest opinion that investment inside trading is more profitable than gambling all you have to do is to understand the flow and find the edge and advancement in order for you to gain a lot with your investment.

that is right in trading you can actually predict whats going ti happen in future and you get a idea weather you should hold or sell but in gambling you are simply trying to satisfy yourself and hoping that next time you won't repeat the same moves and get a profit

No both trading and gambling is so speculative , you guess something and wager something on it.
Just the matter of what factor and how the proccess making that prediction? Trading/investment much more reliable here.
So people run to invest rather than gambling , no doubt it is the most reasonable and makes sense decision.

gambling cant be speculative only sports betting is speculative to some extent otherwise its not possible
because all gambling activities are basd on luck trading is also some sort of risk taking but it works most
of the time

Poker game is not based on pure luck and when you have more skills of the game, you are more likely is going to win over other who are just playing without some sort of poker game skills.

Its better to gamble than to invest because even in a short period of time we can earn easily profit and we don't need to take time to wait for the profit. But it needs a skills when you gamble. We earn easily money and it gives enjoyment also, especially if we win in gambling. Investing is also a good option but it needs more ideas how to earn a big profit. We know that to gamble is risky but we need more strategy how we can earn, and investing is the best also where we put our money because its more safe.

Gambling is good too if you want to profit big amount at once go and play but there is also possibilities that you will lose it. But investment is about trustingyour money to someone, just like that. Its like giving your money about a year and wait until its going to profit.

Gambling is not good if you want profit and you are the one to gamble. Profit in gambling is also good but it's very unstable in a way that you'll be streak in deficit. It's also hard to recover in gambling, that's why if you want to take a risk but you are comfortable that you can recover on it later on, go with legit investments.

There is no grantee that gambling gives you profit always. I do agree that profit from gambling are very high and easy to get but at the same time loss is also very high. If you do not have extra money, i would recommend not to think of playing gambling. You can take part in investments but before than confirm that those investment are safe and they are giving ROI to other users. You still have control on your investment but there is zero control on gambling and it is purely based upon luck.

I agree with you mate. Gambling games that are based on pure luck though have much higher return, they are way high risk. There is really little to no control to games that are based on pure luck. Although there are games that can somehow be controlled like poker and sports betting.

Lol , when you make a random prediction that time things goes speculative dude.
You don't know what the outcome will be , and just put the money on it in hope gaining some profit as a bet!
Really so similar trading and gambling , sometimes you cannot even spot the difference among both.

For me gambling has no assurance of income or profit you just hope and pray to win the game. While when you invest your money your waiting for your profit.And you have a chance also to multiply your capital and profit.Investing also have the chance to save money and l can give future to my family. I can give them a fixed rand teach my kids also to work for their future.

Invest is always better than gambling. So if you have to choose one, then I suggest to invest. If you want to be able to try both, by trying both you'll know which one you should continue, so you can focus on one.

Gambling is for entertainment and investing is for making money. No need to waste money on gambling.

Then no need to gamble. You said no need to waste money on gambling? Then Why are you gambling? When gambling then you should waste your money even though you gamble for entertainment. You still have to waste your money, that's the rule.

Yeah you are right. Regardless of the motivation for gambling this is a fact that we cannot do it without placing money. It is also true that we can lose that money but I feel like the chances of facing defeat are always higher than winning.

Either way our money and time will be wasted on placing bets. If you ask me, gambling is just a useless activity and shortcut for ruining life but Idon’t condemn anyone’s taste.

Quote from: pieppiep on November 27, 2017, 07:26:20 AM

but most of my money will be into investments as I don't want to loose my hard earned money in gambling hoping to double it quick as its very risky method and when it comes to make profits better to have patience and earn good profits in long term by investing it.

Investments should be taken seriously and don't invest what you afford to lose same with gambling. And if you don't want to lose your hard earned money, it's either you'll keep it or save it to the bank.

Well saving in the bank is also another form of investment and comes with risk also because the bank can also close down and you'll loose your saved funds eventually.

In some countries there are nationalised banks means governments back those banks which means the government is guaranty for your funds in those banks. Those banks will not close and you will lose your deposits so easily. If you save money in most reputed banks then it is safer than any small banks. Also, you should know that all investments will have some risks and we need to find a ways to reduce those risks.

If you are talking about saving money in banks then its a safe place and your money will be secure but the interest paid by banks is too low and with high inflation rate you will never feel the profits but if you are talking about investing money in any bank products like mutual fund or other investment products then there is also a risk of loosing money.

No, saving in the bank is not another form of investment. That's is a plain savings and only the bank is the one that will benefit your money and will use it with other forms of their investment like playing in the stocks or buying new properties with that amount of money. Choose another investment that you know what to do just like with trading.

Banks has really low interest out of your deposits and it is also subject to wihtolding tax from the government, it iss not really ideal for investment but a good one where to keep your money deposited and safe.

It is always be a problem when people come to a casino and want to make money steady.
Then that moment you might have to think about trading has bigger chance to make the mission completed successfully.
Noone can deny the fact that gambling isn't profitable for the long term.

Well i think investing in a casino is better than playing against the house and so if you get the chance to invest in bitcoin casino then you should go ahead unless you have a working strategy that can beat the house and that is the only time i will advice you to gamble instead.

I don't know if there is a lot of place to invest small amount of money on a casino.
Also it won't worth when you put small amount , investment should be done in the long term with a little bit large amount of money.
While gambling could be done with small amount but have big multiplier , of course considering the risk , investment is always better.
