1  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Double your money and quite on: Today at 08:05:51 PM
Personally I am not interested in how to double money because the results are not certain to be good and according to our expectations I prefer to play fairly and not force things that are not in accordance with my own abilities.
For example, I want to bet I will look at the contents of my wallet first and if I am sure I will play but if I am still in doubt then it is better not to.
And if at that time I win then I will take and immediately cash out the winnings to enjoy with happiness and return when my condition and situation are back to normal.
chasing a doubling of your balance is very dangerous, you can play too hard and end up losing everything.Of course, every player would like to double their balance in 1-2 games, but this happens extremely rarely, it is better to play slowly and not focus only on x2.If you play only for profit, the end will be very predictable, most likely it will only be losses.

Doubling of money in gambling is not always a recurring event. Players undergo too many losses before being able to advance their wins with more earnings. It's been normal to think of gambling as a means to generate more money, for some players, but that doesn't seem feesible. Most gamblers actually think they can harness money by saving it through this method. Yet, they still find it hard to achieve such goals. Gambling has never been an activity designated to yeild anybody some extra money.

That's why when participating in the game and more money comes forward through it the gambler would see himself lucky. Because that wasn't what he was, initially, thinking. Contrarily, a gambler who has been passing through difficult times with understanding gambling in this angle of thoughts will always end up not making out fun and extra profits via gambling. When what we want doesn't show up as expected the gambler would be disappointed and feel tired about, thereby affecting the playing strategy of the player.
2  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / McDonald's Bitcoin payment at El Salvador are broken, users complain on: June 18, 2024, 08:41:39 AM
This has been a persisting trouble and users on X (formerly Twitter) complained bitterly that they were not able to pay using bitcoin on McDonald's Bitcoin powered payment process at El Salvador. Not sure if the report sent out to Open node about this error have been resolved or a note sent out to the users regarding such a dispute.

Amongst the multiple users who complained, Zeus and Leo Weese, (members of Twitter cryptocurrency community) share this on their page. The problem here is that when you try paying, the screen that's meant to display the invoice would freeze. However, after a while "Zeus" managed to scan the screen after it flashed for a nano second. The other user paid using the counter.

What could have been the cause to this issue?





Above is actually the invoice supposed to be that of ZEUS which he luckily scanned and paid.

Note: it's not a fresh news, as the tweet is dated back to 25 and 26 May. Thanks for reading.

Regardless of who you are, rich or poor, in the end, gambling with a high level of risk is an idea that will never be recommended in gambling, I understand that everyone has different financial situations in their lives, but still if we talk about gambling then Of course it is best to bet with a small amount or an amount you can afford to lose. Rich or poor is not something that can be used as a benchmark for achieving more or winning more often.

Bringing up the fact that everyone doesn't like losing money, although there are some gamblers who have a pretty good responsibility, but if they lose a large amount of money then I'm not sure they will be able to remain calm. Gambling does provide the opportunity to win to all gamblers regardless of whether they are rich or poor, but we also have to understand that behind the opportunity to win there is always the possibility of loss that will continue to lurk, meaning it is better to do something that does not exceed your abilities, one of which is allocation. money to bet.

Gambling for the rich is quite different on the eyes of many, but with experience you'd see that nothing demarcates the rich and poor in gambling except for bankrolls. The rich posses huge bankrolls while the poor own a little. Hence, people who think of the rich having immunity in gambling are probably wrong. No forms of immunity for anybody in gambling both for the rich and poor.

As you pointed out, nobody is comfortably going to accept losing his money without having a second thought about it. Even, the rich get pained the most for losing their money, because they wager huge amount of money to earn bigger. If the fact that rich gamblers wager huge amount of money makes them more of a risk taker than low income players, then that wouldn't be considered enough comparison. Because, if the low income player also had the type of money the rich posses he would do the same.
4  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Concerns grow over online gambling among teens on: June 17, 2024, 04:30:18 PM
These youngsters are indeed tech ninjas. They rule Fortnite lobbies and can break Wi-Fi. That does not mean, however, they have the wisdom to deal with the real-world consequences from their activities. Do they understand the crushing weight of debt or the slippery slope of internet gambling? No, hell no. We cannot expect they will solve it by the time their mortgages are due. That's bullshit! It is on us to teach our children and have those awkward talks with them. We have to establish limits, educate them about financial accountability, and equip them to make wise decisions

This is not about being the "cool parent" able to floss with perfection. It's about serving as a mentor, a guide, a wise leader. It's about arming them with the tools to not only survive but flourish in this digital age

Your last line is incredible and a must implement for most parents. These kids are tech savvies and could get around any digitalized computing tool or app. Harnessing this privilege as a parent and fixing them somewhere they could fit-in would be a nice investment for the family. Because they'll never disappoint once it's tech related. The opportunity to this is all over the web, not that the parents need to be there to spoonfeed them on what to do on the internet.

Sites like Udemy is filled with courses including coding which could attract a child's interest to learn. Companies like Apple are always on the look for tech savvy people to join their company, and code on operating systems. However, the challenge could also be that kids don't always stick around things that wouldn't yield them immediate money. That's why online video games still figure out ways to tip their players, which consists of kids, some money. Yet with the right advice and samples of people who are doing perfectly well financially with the course they're learning, the child will stay focused and learn, knowing he'd be big in future.
5  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What if you have a casino? on: June 17, 2024, 03:51:55 PM
The last time I read a Donald Trump's book he mentioned the importance of being a casino owner other than a gambler. The key word he made was that owning the casino fetches more money than being the gambler, that was why he decided to run a casino. I mean if a person is financially stable enough to set up a casino it's worth giving a shot. Because the customer base is quite numerous and lots of people are definitely going to play games, thereby fetching more money for the owner. It's quite a nice venture. If I owned a casino, I wouldn't allow people to get addicted. Personally, would endeavor that addicted players get banned and the report would be sent across other online casinos not to accept such members in their platform. For their health purpose.
6  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How does affilate programs work in casinos? on: June 17, 2024, 01:33:08 PM
The concept of affiliate programs are just easy to understand. You see those guys giving out flyers for condo spaces and houses in the suburbs? You would assume that they have places there and are just selling you the idea of buying a condo at their property or whatever but the truth is, almost none of them own any of those properties, and a good amount of them are just hired by the property provider, etc. To market these condos and houses at their behest, and in exchange for every successful sale they are given a portion of the profits tagged as commission.

The same idea works for casinos, as an affiliate you're given a link which you will send to your prospects, and each time someone registers, deposits, or gambles using your link, you either earn a point, equivalent to a certain denomination of money, or cold-hard cash.

Being affiliated to a company is quite similar to being a sales man. And it's not difficult to understand. The most tedious aspect of being an affiliate is getting people to patronize the casino. It's not simple, starting out as an affiliate, but the best aspect of it is the commission as you mentioned. And some casino keep on giving out those commissions provided the (your) affiliate still gambles with them. Attaching an affiliate link to your signature also works fine in fetching some commission. The person who introduced Op into affiliate marketing should have told him more of how it works. And it's also a nice thing to try. As it could yield a long lasting stream of income to Op, if he does the right thing.
7  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Would you cashout or wait for the game to conclude? on: June 17, 2024, 12:54:12 PM
This is a question that is best answered considering the current situation of the gambler, to make it simpler gamblers need have a defined system that allows them to cash out or hold according to how the game goes, because most at times when we hold it reverses against us, while when we cash out it goes in our favour. In essence do what you perceive as right when betting, if you are okay with the amount while cashing out then no need to regret over anything, so also if you hold which you dim it fit then it reversed no need to be angry, you did what you decided it is as simple as this.

Personally, it's a complex decision which could lead to being in a dilemma. Gamblers also have doubts within themselves, which is the main purpose of gambling. The regret probably will come in at any moment. It's normal to pick up the existing money and walk away, than wait till the game is over then things changes before the game ends, causing the player to lose out the whole money. I think while waiting for the game to come to an end would be a challenging period for the gambler and the timing would seem to be very slow, it's better not to undergo such a mental stress and focus on the available money. Whatever decision it is the player picks, let it revolve around holding some money. Lossing out completely after being offered a cash out opportunity would be a serious nightmare for that gambler.
8  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling bad to the society? on: June 17, 2024, 12:19:39 PM
I have seen people hate gamblers mostly from rural based people. Village and city cultures are different. Most of the people in the village are simple and want to earn money in a simple way by working hard. So they don't want to prioritize gambling and not even gamblers.

I also think that gambling is a bad thing because people are more likely to be harmed by it. People should avoid the temptation to earn money from gambling and focus on earning money by working hard or doing jobs. People may become addicted to gambling by sitting idly and hoping for more greed. Gambling addicts become a bane to the family for which they are hated by every member of the family. If we gamble then it would be reasonable for us to play it for fun and not as an addiction.
Gambling does strange things to players and I've experienced it. Due to the brain power gambling consumes from its participants, players also have in mind to be responsible and at same accomplish their daily tasks. But, gambling can become a barrier to players in a way that it stops them from proficiently executing heir daily business, as a result of tiredness caused by excessive gambling. Sometimes after gaming I'd notice that weakness coming in me and before starting out on a task, I've already gotten exhausted.

And this happens to everyone, including those in the city and villages. It's a general occurrence and they tend to be slammed with harsh words from peeps close to them. Gambling causes harm to people who don't understand how to follow the game. The society is already flooded by gambling talks which is actually not right for most people due to the young people getting to hear talks of players who are addicted and some who won huge amount of money. The later actually intrigues the youngies to try out gambling. Hence, such gambling realities happening in our society is actually affecting the growth of a responsible society where people love and behave adequately well not to harm the emotions of their loved ones.
9  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling all about luck? on: June 17, 2024, 11:54:39 AM
Gambling is more of luck and not analysis or decision making, and this is why you see it that a gambler cannot keep on winning but a gambler can keep on losing because luck comes once in a while. I see gambling as a try your luck thing and whoever take it so will accept the outcome of his bet.

We have games that are purely luck like slot machines, but people still hit the jackpot, so what will you call that. It is Sam with every other game that is used for gambling. Sportbet is the same if not a lot of people will be cashing out everyday due to their good analysis. Have you not heard that there is no professional gambler, no one can predict what will happen tomorrow correctly.
Indeed, gambling is more about luck, because victory is not guaranteed even if you use the strategy applied to the gambling you do. It's true what you say, luck only comes occasionally, but most gamblers don't see this, they often gamble by forcing themselves to get a win that they can't actually get even if they continue to force themselves by gambling in any way. because in the many cases where gamblers experience big losses, it is usually because they keep gambling because they want to win, but it only makes them lose more money.
Even those who are called professional gamblers certainly don't mean they can win with every gamble they make, I doubt that. If there are people who can win consistently with every gamble they make, I think it's no longer about luck, but rather skill, but basically any gambling involves luck.

It'll be difficult for a gambler to be an expert in terms of predicting accurate results consistently. However, most people who believe such talks from other gamblers about experts who are able to win game consistently, end up trying to become such experts as well. That's why many amongst them forcefully wants to win a game by having no limits to their gambling habit. Moreover, gambling as a lucky game isn't a wrong perspective. The analysis and decision making is also an important skill in gambling. Which doesn't need to be based on luck, it's just some few knowledge required of gamblers to help them escape addiction. Luck occurs once a while, but players could be tricked into accepting the fact that gambling luck shows up when we forcefully want to win, against all odds.
10  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are the main points of gambling? on: June 17, 2024, 06:42:11 AM
No matter how much people shy away from this, I think the major and paramount reason for any gambler to wager money is to make profit,  and irrespective of what you think your intentions are, the moment you wager any amount of money, there is always the expectations of having a profitable return.
I don’t think people loss more in gambling because they don’t know their sim, but Simply because they don’t want to accept the fact that, they’re gambling to make a win and not just to entertain anyone.
Yes, that's correct. Let's not be hypocrites here, we all want to have some fun but at the same time, we also don't want to lose. We are expecting to win and that's why we start gambling. Double, triple, or whatever the multiplier is given to us so that we can withdraw it and maybe enjoy the profits in the future.
IMO, the first reason will always be to win and then the next one is to enjoy every moment of it which sometimes could get difficult if we are on a losing streak. Results could sway the emotions of a gambler and if we are winning that's when we can enjoy it more. I mean, who enjoys losing? I don't think any of us would still be smiling if we lost $100 or more.

It's fine to assume you both are correct on this and nothing is there to deny about gamblers having the tendency of expecting wins after wagering money. The issue is the increment in the desire to win this money. When one does gamble each day his desire for wins would begin to increase and could get out of control. Gamblers in high numbers both physical and online, responsible and irresponsible expect to win, yes, but the differences now comes in when some player can't condone the fact anymore that they'll have to lose even more than winning. Nobody is standing on the notion of not wanting to win while gambling. Doing the right things should be promoted, which is sticking to the plan of enjoying the game while having low desire for the wins.
11  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling all about luck? on: June 17, 2024, 06:11:54 AM
You cannot work hard for gambling because it is assumed that if you are gambling more then your wins will not increase but you will face more difficulties as your bet can be true or false depending on your luck and there is nothing through accepting which you can learn about gambling.
Expecting to win more in gambling can actually be counterproductive. There, losses can be magnified more than wins. One gambler's luck will not be the same as another's so gambling by imitating someone will only increase the number of losses. Gamblers usually try to win quickly and those who lose in gambling also try to recover their losses quickly and want to ensure profits. But the results are not good there they lose more than gain. Over-expecting in gambling involves losing. Gamblers should focus on how to manage possible gambling without expecting too much from gambling.

Expectations is quite a huge barrier for most gamblers and they also face this troubles due to their lack of control. Having expectations on things we don't control is not meant to be so, due to the change of behavior when our expectations don't come through. Leveling things down to luck, is a general perspective from most gamblers. Since we don't own a single control over the outcomes of games, luck can be a better word for gamblers to use after winning a game. Because, the winner wasn't the only person to participate in the game. Even, sometimes, in games we are able to control, luck also plays a vital role. Moreover, hard working gamblers who don't care much about winning have nothing to do with luck. Building up a strong gambling strategy isn't about luck. It requires the dedication of the gambler.
12  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The real winning of gambling is withdrawals on: June 17, 2024, 05:49:46 AM
I know what you guys are talking about, been there, know people who had the same issues. That's why I always withdraw right after the session. If it's sports betting and I win, I withdraw, even if next week I decide to bet again and will have to send money again to the site, it's better than holding it there. If you leave it, you'll always have that thought in the back of your head, telling you that you have some money lying around, waiting for you to make a bet. You'll be wondering what if you went there and bet right now, it would only take a second since the money is already there Wink

If you want to be okay with yourself and everything, it's just as simple as A,B,C, just withdraw your winning funds and use it for something that you would be okay with and something that you would see with your eyes because after that short time of winning what you would get is something that might be shocking to you as you can simply lose back the whole funds to the casino again within the twinkle of eye.

Doing this in sport gambling is a smart move and would always work out in favor of the gambler. But, looking at the settings of slot games you'd notice how unrealistic it is to make this move of withdrawing after winning. It leads to the ever unending news of gamblers who end up selling their belongings for gambling purposes. However, withdrawal is a nice thing for those who think they can control themselves and play gradually after withdrawing their money.  That same thoughts always stays, it doesn't matter where the money is, the brain immediately triggers this thought of spending money, whenever we have the possession of money.
13  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online casino gambling is more of profit chasers while land base is more of fun on: June 17, 2024, 05:33:53 AM

There is no certainty and no guarantee in gambling where as we often hear that winning always depends on luck, while I think we already know that luck is something that can never be controlled, and that's why the act of chasing losses is always unjustified, because in the end in some cases often gamblers even experience a worse situation, instead of achieving recovery but the amount of loss is even greater. Oh yes I am sure that they are gamblers who only see gambling in terms of winning opportunities so when they lose they get emotional.

Yes, you are right, that winning in gambling is just a matter of luck, so as a gambler it is better not to chase the victory, play wisely and responsibly so that we do not get too carried away by the atmosphere that is really sad later.
Gamblers who have not been able to control their emotions well when they lose in gambling may be right what you have said, namely that they are irresponsible and unwise gamblers because they have not been able to accept the results they have obtained when playing, namely defeats that may often occur.

Gamblers are actually making a nice try for their chase for losses in a way that seems they wouldn't make much mistakes. But, along the line, you'll notice the gambler ending up with lots of errors on his quests for profits. It's all as a result of wrong orientation on the gambler. Nothing stops a gambler from being responsible and retaining his control for the game. But Many joined the game with the idea of garnering lots of profits. And it applies in all forms of gambling, both online and offline. It's all about control, determination and orientation. Where a player finds himself whether online or offline doesn't make any difference. The type of gamblers who led the player to gambling could be a factor or reason to a gambler's habit.
14  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Patience can help alot on: June 17, 2024, 05:11:28 AM
Exactly, there's certain amount of losses one will make in gambling that will definitely lead to one losing his cool, not being able to think straight or properly , leading them to make rash decision that they will later regret at the end, because as humans when one emotions has began to overwhelm us we don't longer think properly again expecially when it comes to gambling or trading. Because anytime we experience losses, it always lead to us having some behavioural changes . Either anger or sadness so when one is feeling such is better to just stop for a while to clear his mind .

There're multiple reasons why most gamblers are not patient enough to wait until the game is over before withdrawal. Sport gambling is one of the reasons due to how it's being played and the intriguing aspect of the game which occurs most often is the challenge of change in thoughts. Gamblers always get curious towards the end of the game. And they'll make mistakes along the line, yet they forget football can change at any minute. People are faced with the fear of an ending minute goal. Which is quite true. A gambler who have not been prepared to wait for the game to end will definitely take out his money, and most of them regret this. But, it's all a game, not something to bother about, except for the money the gambler has missed. If money wasn't involved people wouldn't have been bothered over their gambling mistakes.
15  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is this true or some superstitious believe about gambling? on: June 16, 2024, 06:57:57 AM
Casinos are not making people addicts it is just the people who abuse gambling in the wrong way and then try to blame the system instead of taking responsibility. This stranger from the bus had the wrong influence or confused himself with religious beliefs and conspiracy theories spread around the internet and created his version of why gambling is bad.

It's like demons have no other job than looking for people who open their app and make bet. Tongue
We are here for what exactly? We're here for the main profits. Gambling should be very important and stable but there's always something to ascertain about. Blaming the system will not solve the matter, either way the best technique is simply accepting our mistakes and worked in improvement because there's more to accumulate in the system.


The system has enough meaningful things to accumulate from players including their money. Don't know for sure what actually gamblers have to accumulate from the casino except for financial and time management. That's for players who are interested in receiving such skills through gambling. The man in the story may have been a victim of lots of losses and ended up leaving the system with nothing. Thereby his motive is convincing more people to think like he does. It's fine hearing the insights of non-gamblers or quitters and how strange and funny it sounds. I noticed that their conversations about gambling is influenced by their previous gambling experience.
16  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Rich or poor gambler, who should risk more? on: June 16, 2024, 06:36:25 AM
The poor shouldn't gamble in the first place, they should accumulate as much as possible to build their wealth. If they're keep gamble, that's the reason why they're still poor. Remember, gamble using free bet or faucet isn't gambling since you're risking for nothing.

So it's the rich that should risk more, they have larger money, means they can gamble mores.

I agree, it would be better for those who are rich and have money to take risks because there is also a possibility that they will earn back the money they will lose, unlike the poor, when the money they used is lost, that is a big loss and problem for them, where they will get something to trade with the money they lost.
it's better to those poor people to focus on working and saving instead of adding vices that won't help their lives.


It's true that low income players should focus more on increasing their income instead of risking it on the casino. The risk Is quite too many for gamblers both ways. But, on the responses above it's better that a player with lesser amount of money to build himself financially. Have never been with a gambler who claims to own nothing, many of them always have to wager. Along the line they end up going broke. I mean, even the rich also suffer such risks, the advise shouldn't be directed to only low income gamblers. Every confused gambler deserves this advise. Because his wealth, if rich, can diminish in a fast pace. However, the lesser income players who have nothing on them should also respect this and become responsible. As it'll hit harder on them than any other gamblers with some funds.
17  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling can be a hope restorer if we go about it wisely! on: June 16, 2024, 06:13:44 AM
One of the only thing I talk about in gambling is to be wise whenever you are gambling, gambling require much amount of intelligent and smartness for you to be able to succeed in gambling because it's really a responsible gambler that can fit to this explanation I don't really have much to see but I know that much reply has already been done over this, that is why it's always important for us to be wise,

Making good decisions will definitely saved one tomorrow probably from the hands of debts. Gambling is probably for the main gamblers, who know how to calculate and absorb risks. This is very important and we totally understand the odds involved. Gambling is all about mind, having the potential confidence of withstanding all pressure and we know the exact thing to follow.
I agree. If you're a type of gambler that is aware of the risk and the possible consequences for using your money in gambling, and able to bear and accept the situation, you won't end up as someone who got rekt because of gambling. It's because you know what you're getting into and prepared for it. Winning is really good but losing is inevitable sometimes. Thus before trying to gamble, make sure that you're prepared for the worse case that can happen.

That's a nice scenario especially for the gambler who have gotten enough to invest in his business. Gambling has never been simple for anybody and when the win arrives it's always crucial to pick up the right choice immediately and work towards it. Nothing is actually wrong with gambling except for the fact that it could get challenging for the player some times. When the wait is getting endless some gamblers seem to be worried over their nor being able to harness a win. Hence, the frustration is a factor that actually changes the behavior of some players to go against the normal next move like the man in Op did after winning. I've heard of multiple stories where jackpot winners followed it up with their business. It's quite a rare occurrence. Many don't follow this step, instead they'll wager it back and loss out.

You believe in luck so you have to try as hard as possible... isn't that wrong? Will luck come every day or week? No one knows..

You should not expect too much in gambling because the results will not match your expectations! Gambling is a game scheme that must please you. If you expect more than that, it will be bad or become a problem in your life.

Many people say gambling is for fun... Use cold money... if you lose don't worry about stress or anything...

Following up on the topic, gambling possess multiple reasons why people think the wins comes as a result of luck. The results are not being controlled by the gambler and whenever it favors him he'd want to wager more. Sincerely, a truck load of luck wouldn't guarantee often winning over the house. The game belongs to them and players have control on their actions and can't determine the results.playing for fun still counts if properly done. Gamblers are actually meant to forget about their lost money and focus on building themselves for the best. It's never a bad thing thinking about what's to happen during a section.
19  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling bad to the society? on: June 15, 2024, 07:26:29 PM

It is true that someone who gambles in the community will be viewed badly because basically many people reject this gambling activity if it is carried out in their village.
Gambling which has a negative value, namely it will make someone's life miserable, so it is not easy for this gambling activity to be accepted in the community, it is clear that it will worsen someone's life and the consequences of this gambling activity can cause bad behavior that will emerge from the gambler.
For example, if the gambler often experiences defeat, it is certain that he loses a lot of money there and what will he do? he will try to borrow money everywhere and there are also those who commit crimes such as stealing.
From the conclusion above, it is clear that gambling in the eyes of the community has a very negative value and if someone is determined to do it and is found out by other people, the person may often get negative criticism, if you want to keep gambling, it is better to just hide your activities.

Hiding the activity is one nice practice, with disadvantages as usual. However, when gambling responsibly cannot surpass compulsive gambling, the society will still cause discomfort on a gambler, whether he hides or players openly. The sad expression is by all corners and affects the success a long way for new players. Most of them already fail because everyone around them failed in gambling. They see it as a usual occurrence with less or no solution. And many gamblers in the category of players who add bad publicity in the society think of experts as some magicians who can win on any wager they make in the casino. The wrong thoughts people have about gambling won't be changed anytime soon.

It'll be hard to say for sure if I'd be able to do such to my club. I don't think it's something one could imagine when he's not putting on the shoes of the man in the story. Ordinarily without being hysteric I'd do that if my club guarantees to lose the game. I mean who would know he'd lose a game against a worthy opponent and still not bet against his club. Working with the club is quite very different from being a fan. Lots of fans can do it, but employees trust their club and wouldn't think of losing any game. It's more like going into a competition and purposely lose because you staked against yourself. It sounds weird to be sincere.

It is against the ethics of most clubs for players or employees bet against their clubs or employers. This is because they can manipulate these games to favor themselves. Many players have been sanctioned by clubs and sports bodies because they engaged in match-fixing or betting against their clubs.

Your write-up only defines how deep gambling have impacted negatively to the genuineness of most games like football. Hearing multiple cases of footballers who engage into fixed games derails the fun of football. Indeed it's meant to be a sanctionable rule. They actually make huge amount of money sabotaging their team. It should be a felony. Affecting an entire team and endangering their league success is quite unbearable coming from a well paid employee. A single player can easily impact the game and cause losses to his team. Have been wondering how this employee who doesn't play in the pitch could attribute to his team losing a game.
