			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are many sites on the internet which are used for earning money.<br />
some of us feel so awkward  when it comes to real jobs.Most of us prefer the most simple ways of earning money.<br />
 I have reviewed one of the real sites that earn you some money :</p>
<p>I tried this with Gameduels.com and ended up twenty pounds down. First of all i intended to put ten pounds on my account but somehow put twenty on there. When I tried to with draw the ten there was some kind of complication and I had to play through the full twenty so many times over. So I went with it, playing games. The odds are crazily against you. You are matched with people of your apparent level of skill based on how my games you played before and what your score was.<br />
Even if there was a 50/50 chance of winning any particular game tht you play, Your money odds are more like 70/30. So you win one, you&#8217;re up, lose one, you&#8217;re down lower than where you were before.<br />
This is because gameduel takes their cut of the winning prize &#8211; I suppose they have to make a living, but I hope they are happy with my twenty pounds because I will not visit their site any more.<br />
A better business plan would be to offer 50/50 odds, maybe charge a small fee on withdrawal, and make most of their revenue through on site advertising or traffic redirection or something. If they had done tht in the beginning, they would probably have made much more than 20 pounds out of me.<br />
This is a typical example of short sighted business dealing.<br />
The games are fun but not worth paying a continual fee to play. i can get just as fun games to play online for free, except there wont be a chance of winning money.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A newbie to on-line gambling has many questions to question. He requires guidance in the intricacies of the venture overseas to him. Below are the top 4 things a first timer should do prior to opening an account with an on-line casino.</p>
<p>1. Endeavor the on-line casino first free of charge</p>
<p>A good amount of the on-line casinos this day offer a free play facilities, that&#8217;s, allowing you to play on their games with no having to bet true funds. In case it is your first time in on-line gambling, I could propose you first endeavor these free play facilities. There are many fine motives why you do it. The free play mode allows you to practice the games, so you won&#8217;t have to make expensive missteps when you play for true funds. You&#8217;ll additionally be capable to check the casino&#8217;s software, graphics, sound results, playability, and over all, you additionally practice the enjoyment of on-line gambling with no having to lose a cent.</p>
<p>2. Realize first as a lot about the game of your selection</p>
<p>On-line games come in a diversity of forms and style, every single catering to individual tastes. A number of these games need skills, like poker, video poker, blackjack, and so on., at the same time as other people are wholly rely on possibility, like craps, baccarat, roulette, and so on. Prior to you make your first bet; we propose you study as a lot of the game. Since various games have a various arithmetical limit to the house, it&#8217;s smart gambling in case you&#8217;re well aware about it first. For instance, in blackjack &#8211; a game of ability &#8211; in case you play the game utilizing your hunches, you&#8217;re in a 3 to 6 percent difficulty rather than utilizing a mathematically proven PC produced main playing strategy where you limit the casino&#8217;s limit at around 1 percent, depending on the rules. Our aim below is to limit the casinos limit to the least and stretch our enjoyment to max&#8230;</p>
<p>3. Supply truthful data in the account creation</p>
<p>Providing correct and truthful data in the account creation procedure is quite essential; alternatively, you might encounter difficulties afterward. A slight discrepancy on the data you submitted may cause a delay in transmitting your winnings, or worse, you can even be refuted of your winnings. Casinos are quite stringent when it comes to that matter and have built a safety system around it making certain that everybody&#8217;s interest is safeguarded (particularly their interest). Make certain additionally that you weren&#8217;t violating any of the terms and conditions of the casino.</p>
<p>4. Do watchful with casino bonuses</p>
<p>A gambler should be watchful with bonuses and should not select an on-line casino on the origin of its bonus offer lonely. Bonuses are enjoyment; they&#8217;re promotion gimmicks to seduce more costumers. However, there&#8217;s typically a get that come along with them. For instance, some casinos need you to make a needed number of bets and some reject to provide winnings from bonuses. We propose that you read the good prints of the terms and conditions concerning its utilize. Bonus hunters are such who endeavor to acquire income by taking benefit of bonus offers, and they&#8217;re frowned upon by casinos. Keep in mind that the proprietors didn&#8217;t create a casino just to provide bonus to anybody. A newbie to on-line gambling should additionally desist from creating numerous accounts in identical casino platform.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>First of all Gambling is not an issue for say. I am trying to compare it to alcoholism or even workaholism . People are the issue, since people get addicted to things. If you were to remove gambling, people would no longer be addicted. Although they still would manage to gamble. Gambling has existed for ages and it will not disappear, since governments have found the ability to tax it and generate a decent income from it. The only remaining and effective possibilities left to help people with gambling issues, are by first getting to children and explaining to them the awful issues caused by gambling. As well as giving a lending hand to those who need it most such as families and people affected by this problem. Many families and individuals are suffering out there, and the governments only keep publicizing the next up coming jackpot to pocket these poor people&#8217;s money and enrich their lives.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Annie Donnelly, 38 pleaded guilty on Wednesday for stealing more than $2.3 million dollars from Great South Bay Surgical Associates where she was a bookkeeper. Donnelly wasn&#8217;t at the gambling tables or betting on horses and sports. She instead became very caught up in scratch-offs and weekly lotteries that can be found in any gas station.</p>
<p>Prosecutors say that Donnelly began her downward spiral in June of 2002 starting with fraudulent checks of $3,000. She stole petty cash, money from coworkers and finally started writing checks to herself and non-existant companies that she used to fund her gambling habit.</p>
<p>She has to repay all the money and could spend up to 12 years in prison if convicted.</p>

<p>As a parent we have to be aware that anything in high moderations is not good for us. We hear it all the time but we must do it and that is monitor what our children are doing on the internet and even make sure that an internet capable computer is not in our children&#8217;s room.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a big place the web and their are lots of things that kids can get their hands on. It&#8217;s up to us to make sure that those things stay well out of their reach.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A survey of Nebraska students showed that most are gambling even at the ages of 10 and under. This increased from the last study done in 2003 and officials believes that it is a factor of a few different reasons such as:</p>
<ul>
<li>Poker on television</li>
<li>The glamorization of poker</li>
<li>Easy access to gambling online</li>
</ul>
<p>Experts say that unfortunately the gambling gives them the same rush as adults and can make it much easier for them to fall into addiction.</p>
<p>In 2003, the percentage of students who said they gambled in the past year was about 21.8 in sixth grade, rising to 28 percent in 2005. Among eight-graders, the figure rose from 33.8 percent in 2003 to 38 percent in 2005. Among 10th-graders it rose from 36.1 percent in 2003 to 44 percent in 2005. Among 12th-graders it rose from 37.4 percent in 2003 to 46 percent in 2005.</p>
<p>Most frequently they bet on sports, played the lottery, bet on cards and or games of skill and played <code><a href="http://www.gamingsupermarket.com/">bingo</a></code> for money.</p>
