Pakistan made 150/6 in 20 overs thanks to Ahmed who made quick 60 in 34 balls which helped Pakistan to reach 150. Though warner is out but Oz are to flying start and just lost second wicket now at 48/2 in 6 overs . Pakistan requires quick wickets now to win this match .

This is not the first time people are sharing about their frustrating losses in gambling out of borrowed money. But, this kind of sad stories keep coming always and from that we need to realize people never learn any lesson out of this forum but they keep continuing what they want to do by losing their time and money.


There's no doubt that such stories will continue to happen with gamblers outside of this forum,  but I really hope that our discussions here and in similar threads help those who read them to stay away from such dangerous steps as borrowing money for gambling. So, I disagree with the notion that people never learn. I think they do learn from what they read, and bad things happen to people who never read something from where they can learn something.

It is so beneficial for people who read this and learn from other experiences and do not burn their own money for free . Those who are smart will understand this and stay away else we will have some other who will share their experience of losing the money .

So there is a real chance that Bangladesh can win the series or draw the series if the second T20 is washed out
Won't the t20 series be of 3 matches? So, it's still far away to predict that Bangladesh will win the series. If second t20 washes out, India still have the chance to fight in the 3rd match and get a draw series at least.

Really! After all these hard work for the mutual betting pool, you gave this news :-D
I already have sent the amount with a higher fees, then this Huh Hope we can see a minimum limited over match.

Yes if that happened and 2nd gets washout than India would be under pressure because it would be a do or die game for them and this means Bangladesh would not lose the series atleast . Hopefully we will have a 2nd match and a result as well .

If it’s someone I know personally, I would have told them to stop, but if it’s not then I’m gonna mind my own business and just watch their world burn in front of their eyes. The shittiest thing to do is to interrupt someone trying to recoup their losses and clinging on that ray of hope that they’re going to win, and you might get punched in the face for being so nosey even if you’re just being concerned. Looking out for a homie is a good thing, but to gambling degenerates, it will be taken as something negative and will net negative reactions for sure.

I would not prefer to say to unknown ones and would restrict myself to give advice only to whom I know and will let them know what they are doing and as Be aware of the outcome as well . And if they do not want to listen then would not give them more advice .

Some users donate big after big wins. I remember samiest in duckdice donating a lot to a school in the Philippines.

Hopefully such people win big amounts as they will always be generous enough to do good for the human beings and keep on donating for a noble cause and this will help a mankind as well . As anyways this is also extra what u get from gambling so nice way to even spend money is by donating something .

Do not make gambling a permanent profession because it is slowly destroying your life in vain, but it is undeniable that many people make gambling a profession but can only enjoy the results of victory in a short time and finish it quickly too, and I experienced it that way and finally lost it all.
and those who only seek income from gambling as their profession will eventually switch professions after losing everything.

Gambling is not for long term and those who get indulge in it over a period of time will lose their money . It is important for people to make it just for entertainment purpose and as a source of regular income which may just not happen always .

Bumrah's Absense is now feeling by Indian bowling attack as today against Bangladesh they was very poor even some good overs in middle but at the death overs they completley fail to produce some good result and give match very easily its good fight and win by visitors but still two matches and Indian team is very good in revenge so now some very hard time coming for Bangladesh.
India missed some crucial catches in the match and they missed a review which would have being a wicket if the captain reviewed and if they could have done those then they could have put pressure back on Bangladesh but they chased the score really well and Mushfiqur Rahim was in complete control during the final two overs and played some wonderful shots and Mahmudullah took the team home with a huge six and it was the perfect start to the series.

India did miss crucial catch and also I believe that their should have being some blend in bowling by getting one of the experienced bowler in the squad to help them to pick up wickets which was missing . This cost the match for India .
1248  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: November 03, 2019, 04:55:10 PM
Bangladesh require another 33 runs in 16 balls and one good over can change the match, the problem is that Bangladesh have wickets in hand and i think they will try to score the runs and look for boundaries rather than waiting long and these T20 matches can be tricky if they loose wickets at this stage, let the best team who can absorb the pressure win the match.

What a game we are having it as Bangladesh who was not considered that favourites is going to win the match it seems as they just require another  4 runs in 6 balls and 7 wickets in hand . India will need to comeback strongly in last over to win it .
1249  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How many times have you gone against majority on: November 03, 2019, 12:15:08 PM
Sport betting is strange when it wants to be, it never a sure fact the impossibility can turn possible.
When booking a bet many bets on what the majority had placed before hand.
What am I saying betting site releases games for betting and gives an option where you see what others has selected and very often it's the one with the lower odd that  people place bet on.

Last week Saturday was a Turing point for me as I refused to bet with majority(31-8-2019) and placed a draw on the match between osasuna and FC Barcelona. Most people would see it as an unwise decision but that's soccer the foolish thing can turn out to be wise.

How many times have you gone against the crowd and smiled to the bank

People generally go with the majority as it involves less risk and also less reward. But if you know your game right, you can go against the majority. especially in sports like soccer. I remember placing my bet on NewCastle once, as they were underdogs and won 10/1. You should be sure about your strategy , should know the game you are betting on and also some luck to win against the majority


The important thing is that people should be knowing exactly what they are betting on as this will help them to take their own decision rather than just following the majority where they could be wrong at times as well.

Hold on! Kohli is not playing in today's match?
Yup. He deserves the rest and younger players like Samson and Dube are getting chances at last. Chahal is back too. I am interested in seeing whether Samson is better than Pant on an international level.

Also, it seems that Rohit Sharma needs 8 more runs to chase down Kohli's T-20 runs record. These both are simply trading places back and forth these days in terms of records.

Considering that Bangladesh team is not at that par at current moment considring Shakib also being out then it is also a good time for India as well to get the new players or give other player a chance as this will give them experience as well.
1251  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: November 03, 2019, 04:54:55 AM
Oh! yes.
I am not gonna miss IPL of-course. By the way, I am back with my usual nature. May be I will have few work to do in the next week end so possibly I will not come online for 2/3 days. But it's next week of course.

I see from tomorrow India vs Bangladesh series. I heard this news that their Shakib is ban or something? If this is true then I do not think Bangladesh will be able to give a fight against a team like India.

Thanks for reminding everyone about the IPL!!!

It is November already and in around five months the IPL13 will start. A lot of cricket is ongoing now and the cricketing calendar has got very crowded. It is difficult to track all these tournaments. After the IPL, in a few months the T20 World Cup will be starting. And immediately after that, we will be shifting to the 2019–20 Big Bash League in Australia.

The past few weeks were also pretty crowded, with the South African tour of India, Sri Lankan tour of Pakistan and Australia, T20 qualifiers and the ongoing ENG/NZ and AUS/SL series.

Cricketing calendar is always busy specially if you include the leagues matches like IPL or big bash etc. We have almost full year of cricket and there is hardly a big gap where we see no cricket being played.

Its very few days actually where there is no big leagues or any series happening in the calendar year if included that IPL or big bash. Though IPL is much bigger than Big bash. So for people who are fond of cricket would be occupied quite often and also those who want to bet will have something or other daily.

1252  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: November 03, 2019, 04:52:42 AM
NZ this time game England a good target of 177 and NZ bowlers got an early break striking two wickets of England in early phase of game. Also explosive batsman Eoin Morgan is out now. Billings and Malan is on crease. Haven't seen Malan playing T-20 but Billings is capable of delivering a good innings.


NewZealand  played much better today and got a deserving win at Wellington. JDS Neesham made 42 runs in just 22 balls which made the difference in the End. Also England has inexperienced lineup today and NewZealand took full advantage of that.
With this the series is leveled by 1-1 making the 3rd T20 to be the decisive one.



With the bounce back of NZ in second match this has make the 3rd decisive match more interesting for every one for players and also for the entire audience to watch and for the betting people as well because now the rates would change and NZ might be more better than Pakistan.
1253  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to restrain yourself at a small loss and not spend money. on: November 02, 2019, 04:51:50 PM
It often happens that people go out to play a variety of games of chance with a certain amount of money, but in the end they spend everything if they are gone. How to prevent which technique you base yourself on to spend no further. It's hard to just give up, people persistent in gambling that day, so they can't just tell themselves they'll try tomorrow. Why is this difficult? Is it because of greed?

There's no techniques that will work once an individual do become addicted in gambling. Because the root cause of becoming an addicted gambler is greed. People wants easy money without undergoing hardwork to become more established and stable in life. They only think gambling can solve financial problems while the reality is It will not do good in the long run. I have seen several gamblers who became broke due to excessive bets and lost of self control in gambling.


Couple if ways if people want to avoid getting to be addicted and still want to gambling. It is that first just carry limited money in the wallets as this will help you to just lose minimum amount. Secondly gamble with family as this will put some restriction on you while gambling.
1254  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: November 02, 2019, 04:48:50 PM
it would be foolish from the Australian side to take them lightly. In T20, just one big innings or a single good over can change the course of the match.
I do agree with it as Pakistan have a good bowling attack and the Australian team batting is focused on three main players mainly Finch, Warner and Smith and if the Pakistan bowlers can be successful in taking their wicket then they have a young batting line up and it is a good combination and Pakistan too have some young players in the team and i expect it to be a good series and hopefully get good odds  Cheesy.

Historically, Pakistan used to have the best pace attack among the Asian teams. They used to have genuine fast bowlers such as Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis and Shoaib Akhtar, when India and Sri Lanka used to depend on medium pacers. Even now, the Pakistani pace attack is among the best in the world. I am talking about Amir, Riaz, Irfan, Usman Shinwari, Hasan Ali.etc. Even the younger bowlers are really impressive. I once saw Mohammad Hasnain bowling at 151 kmph.


I think that was the past and if considering they still are the best in terms of pace attack in bowlers in Asian countries do not think so because if you see their life span in cricket of a particular bowlers in no more than five years where they can continue being the good bowler.

1255  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The secret of gambling? on: November 02, 2019, 12:55:24 PM
After playing gambling games hundreds of times, without much effort in winning substantial profits at all, it makes me wonder what could be the secret of gambling? Personally, I find myself comfortable playing crypto-based gambling games, because of their greater level of accessibility than traditional games. I believe that gambling games which use cryptocurrencies and Blockchain tech, are much fairer than traditional ones within the mainstream world. Yet, you tend to lose more money than you've initially invested into a gambling game.

Which is why, I'm deeply curious to know if there's actually a secret within gambling that would allow me to win more than losing? Any thoughts about this will be greatly appreciated. Smiley

There's a lot on Youtube, but it's a pitch for e-books or courses on how to win in gambling and it comes with hundreds of dollars tag, I don't know how effective these are, there's even an e-book about winning in a lottery, but there's no guaranty that these are effective so far no one has posted here that he is successful because of those e-books or courses, or maybe nobody here is buying those yet.

I saw several youtube channels where the channel creators considered themselves sports betting trade specialists, then I went to the link they recommended to take the sports betting trade course, it turns out that their website always has a free tip .. I used the free tip that they give ... guess what happened? the free tips they give are wrong. they make good analysis of the games but bet wrong. Is case to say that it is better to trust yourself

It is always advisable and recommended that one should do their own review and research in order to bet on the team or player which they wish to rather than just blindly following someone whom you are unaware of. This only help you as you will learn over a period of time and will be happy with whatever the results may be rather than losing on someone else decision.

1256  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If You Win Big Will You Remember Your Losses on: November 02, 2019, 11:00:41 AM
I have just been involved in gambling for almost 5 months, from the games I play, I win more games because I have an instinct in every game.  Lust and anger that you must get rid of. Don't think about losing because it can cause you trauma and lose positivity in playing.  Gambling can change your life from poor to rich if you really focus on gambling. I add a little. I often win big wins in soccer gambling and I don't think of losing / losing in the past Tongue
Maybe you've told the truth, losing in gambling is one thing that can't be avoided for sure. Gamblers always want to win and win and I think that is what gamblers have been fighting for. Thinking about losing when you win a bet is something gamblers don't often do, but I think calculation is also needed in gambling.

In gambling you would lose for sure only thing is that at the end you need to tally if you had made money or lost the money. Majorly people would be on the losing end and some would be neutral and few people who would made some good money . So people who have made money might just not really remember about losing small money.

So tomo we will have the 1st T20 match of India vs Bangladesh series. Though with Shakib Hasan being out for a year now things may not be that same for the team and find it difficult to cope up with India. But hopefully some good match could be witnessed.
1258  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are your most common superstitions? on: November 01, 2019, 06:25:43 PM
I'm living in a country where superstitions is very popular, everything is connected to superstition, and my own superstition is to always wear my favorite lucky color which is green, and wearing my favorite necklace, I'm not getting the best results, but at least I'm feeling good, this is gambling we cannot expect to win all the time.

It’s more about belief that what you do at a time when you win good amount you start consider it as superstition that you did this or wore this and your luck favours while doing this or this becomes superstitious and a habit sort of thing .

^ TBH Eng vs Aus rivalry looks cute to me when i compare this with Ind vs Pak. for ex if England lose against Australia or vice versa then team or fans will get together have a beer and shrug their shoulder but that's not the case with India or pakistan.

About D/N test. don't consider this as a perfect solution but one of the important piece of big puzzle. its important to have all pieces together otherwise..... meh.

I agree that England and Oz fans can get along well and have a great time as well outside the stadium . This is not the case with India vs Pak audiences . And also it’s a nice idea when the viewership and audiences are declining you will have to make changes in test cricket .
1260  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: November 01, 2019, 05:26:52 AM
Hopefully test cricket lovers gonna enjoy this match. I am eagerly waiting to see this pink ball match although unluckily haven't got enough time to watch an entire test match. i think both team will get a new experience from this and test cricket will touch another level. Test cricket is loosing its popularity day by day where cricket lovers prefer to watch twenty/20 matches but this "Day-Night" format could change the current scenario.
India does have a bigger audience and if the day night test match is a success then we will see more day night matches around the world and the advertising revenue the ICC earns with every India match is higher and if they are able to attract more on air advertisement for test matches then it will be a grand success and hence this will be an important change.

Even within India, the audiences for test matches have gone down during the recent years. Two decades back, it was really difficult to get tickets for test matches even during weekdays. But now, empty stands are the norm unless it is a holiday or a weekend. The ticket prices have also increased by many times and not a lot want to spend $25 to watch the national team playing.

The ICC/BCCI are still ignoring the core issue. What the audience want is shorter matches with more action. Not many people can afford to stay away from work for 5 days consecutively in the modern world. The traditionalists still want more and more test matches, but financially it makes little sense. There is no point in having these matches just to uphold traditions.

This day and night test match is an experimental match, and BCCI will have to market it a lot otherwise people may give it a pass. I also feel we will see some empty stands during this match is because prices will be kept high considering it’s a day and night match, and BCCI will be keen to make more money out of it. If the Indian board really wishes to bring crowds back to the stands then they need to slash ticket prices, otherwise test cricket will slowly die out there.

Initially the crowd might come as it’s going to be new for few months for people to experience the day night matches . After certain time it would require more promotion or some entertainment for people to keep coming in the test matches as well to view the match .
