On stumps of day 2 of second test, West Indies are 102 and lost 4 wickets in there first innings. Australia scored 511 runs and declared there innings. Marnus Labuschagne and Travis Head both scored 163 and 175 runs respectively. WI are not in good position at the moment, Devon Thomas and Marquino Mindley are making there debut from WI side. Seems like an easy second win for Australia.
West Indies will lose the match without any doubt. Australia is dominating in the second test match too as the way they did it in the first test. I think West Indies will get all out within 200 runs and Australia will start the second innings with a good lead.
On the other hand, Pakistan is doing good against England. Hopefully they will take a lead in the first innings. They haven't made a batting friendly pitch in this test.
This is going to be 2-0 series win for Australia. In the first match Australia scored 598 runs and declared the innings. This time it is 511 runs and declared. In the first test West Indies scored 283 runs and this time probably not above 250 runs. Almost similar pattern of play, however the match ends in the last day's session. Better play out of West Indies could make the match more competing than just a one sided match.

Very exciting and crazy last few minutes of extra time we have seen now between Argentina and Netherlands, many dangerous and so close chances to score from Argentina to kill the match but failed. They seem afraid of penalties and since the start of this cup all the teams that managed to draw could win in penalties like Croatia for example
My heart kept pounding and finally it was Argentina to win the match on penalty shoot. 2(3)-2(4). Big match and big performance from both the teams. In specific I loved the way Netherlands played the match. Playing against a team with massive support isn't an easy thing. Got astonished with the global support for Argentina which is 132 million whereas for Netherlands it is just 28 million.

This is for specific location. Long back itself it have widened it's service with cryptocurrency addition. We haven't got a big list of cryptocurrencies, but initially bitcoin, ethereum, bitcoin cash and Litecoin were availed for buying, selling and transferring through PayPal. Years back co-founder of PayPal Peter Thiel mentioned in an interview, if he have come to know about the existence of blockchain technology before PayPal, he would've used it in the PayPal. So, a good support from PayPal to crypto is not a new thing.
1384  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you experienced this kind of gambling on: December 08, 2022, 09:47:45 PM
I remembered that in my region there are a lot of aged men who come together to analyze the possibility of a particular number been used as draws they mostly do their analysis using jersey numbers but they do this analysis using news papers but not television as stated by the op I don't know if it is related to the idea of the op.



I understand this one you are talking about. The old men usually hangout forecasting through the soccer news paper to analyse on what draws will come during the weekend. It is almost same as the one the guy followed up on the TV because it is also about studying and reading of the numbers appearing that week. He also cross checked his forecast on the soccer newspaper to confirm same numbers. This is years back actually.
Both were the same, just the difference on the source through which the information is being taken. For me it is something new and hadn't used to it. In what all way we predict using different tactics and strategies, the outcome is kind of coincidence to the lucky one.
1385  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: December 08, 2022, 09:40:49 PM
Not only just this time they are playing good at their home ground I saw their previous match on their home play ground and what I've seen is that they've consistently done well in those matches except some few match. And I think with that consistency they were able to beat India and take the series in their favour. I also thought that they also hold the ability to win 3rd ODI  and make whitewash India.
Third ODI will be played in a different venue. Pitch condition will be different there. I think Indian players will do better in that condition. Bangladesh had won the previous ODI series against India by 2-1, It was played in 2015. Probably this series will end in the same way. Indian players will get huge pressure from their cricket board if they lose the third ODI as well.
Venue plays an important role. At the same time it is also to be noted that India will win the upcoming match unlike the venue. Indian players used to do the best when they're left to do independent. First ODI is an example, if the bowlers weren't given pressure they would've took the last wicket that brought 50 partnership and won the match for Bangladesh. In the second.match the loss of wickets made the players look for a way to withstand wickets and this made them miss the scoring. This time the series is lost and they'll freely play and win the match.

From the very beginning cryptocurrency is opposed by the banking network mentioning that bitcoin have eaten up the profit. Large number of people moved to bitcoin for the large scale transactions, which requires huge fee as well as complicated process for the same. Even by that time banks have invested into bitcoin confidentially.

Banks at some point realised the difficulty of competing with cryptocurrency. As a result some banks launched usage of bitcoin and some have begun to coexist with bitcoin. Now users get the access of using fiat and bitcoin based on their need.
1387  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much initial startup to Start Cryptocurrency Casino? on: December 07, 2022, 11:59:52 PM
If you had a family member with the crypto currency, you can use their money to play some gambling games using crypto currency. Because most of the casino is based on the crypto currency based gambling. It’s essential to play the game and then you can acquire knowledge easily.
Yes, playing with cryptocurrency on gambling sites have turned to be normal as we've got good list of gambling sites with cryptocurrency acceptance. When it comes to starting own casino there is a requirement for good bankroll. In the past it is quite hard to find a casino with cryptocurrency acceptance as there are very limited number of opportunities available.
1388  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: December 07, 2022, 10:55:57 PM
BAN vs IDN ODI series I am quite surprised by these matches BAN is dominating the series by 2-0. On the other side, Namibia won the match by a massive margin, I am not much surprised by this as Namibia was the favorite for this match as compared to Nepal, I am curious about the IND vs BAN as they won by just 5 runs.
It is a surprising win, India almost lost the match and Rohit Sharma drove it to the loss at the last over. Losing by a small margin of 5 runs happened at the end which was supposed to be a big loss. Bangladesh have the advantage of home ground and in majority of the matches Bangladesh have marked it's winning. Once again this have been proven by the series win from Bangladesh.
1389  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin bottom prediction? on: December 07, 2022, 10:46:06 PM
^^ Maybe, but still a full year ahead of us, full year of still bearish sentiments running around that can create another lowest low or bottom for this bear cycle.

Just hard though to see the price hitting at $13k or worst the $10k that everyone is hoping. Because that is the best chance for them to start accumulating because that could be the bottom price that we all have been waiting for.
Low bottom for the ongoing year won't happen much. Maybe the price can go close to $15k and the same won't drop to $10k or something. Even now it is time to accumulate through DCA and this can make you not miss the opportunity. By the falling year if the market trend continues to be the same as now, there are chances of reaching $12k or down to it.
1390  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC, more closer bullish days ahead. on: December 07, 2022, 10:27:38 PM
As the current movements of the BTC market price shows, I think these are small bullish indication but yet to pick up the pace to begin the real bull run. 25k price point needs to be broken in order to push the BTC price to make that happen.
This is my own analysis on market and I think one bull run won't be enough for the push.
But recent popularity and many countries accepting BTC will be a huge break for BTC.
From my understanding of cryptocurrency i feel like the price of Bitcoin is something that can occur through the investors of cryptocurrency, if we should think of the movement of Bitcoin it will be determined by the total number of people who come to the market will determine the rising factor or rising effect of cryptocurrency. Actually the price of Bitcoin is not fixed and it's rotational.
The demand to supply mechanism makes the variation in the price based on the new money entering into the market. The price will be in fluctuation, but how far is the variation needs to be predicted. Bitcoin's bullish days are closer, but those moves are temporary and not long term moves. It is good to make use of the opportunity when the market makes some bullish moves by the end days of the month.
1391  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: My concern of security when using casino houses. on: December 06, 2022, 11:48:06 PM
This is a problem only in third world gambling dens.

Most casinos have bouncers and cameras. When you win a lot of money you can call a cab or request one to be called for you by the casino. They'll get a legit cab not some uber wannabe and will know who they contacted so there's no way a driver would attack you or take you to his gangster buddies.

Basically the only weak point is that the cab driver will know where you live, but if you're worried about having a lot of cash on you, you can request the casino to hold the money for you until you can come back during the day and go straight to the bank. There's so many things that you can do to be safe.
There are more ways available to secure the winning amount. Same time we should also think of the opposite side. Same as we having multiple ways there'll be multiple ways to steal our money amidst the cameras and bouncers. In that perspective online gambling platforms provide with the best of security.
1392  Economy / Economics / Re: Central Bank of Nigeria to limit cash withdrawals on: December 06, 2022, 11:41:18 PM
Nigerian government is speeding the process of going cashless. The government might've made proper research and study, but for the common people it looks like something taking place in a much faster phase. Proper implementation reach the people in the right way than just trying to do what the government have scheduled.

Recently Nigerian government have taxed the cryptocurrency and now the plan to lower the fiat into circulation seems like a better way to go cashless and improve its own CBDC. Nigeria doing things in the right way and supporting cryptocurrencies will help them grow the economy as the country have got good number of cryptocurrency users.
1393  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Two Bitcoin Stories from the AfroBitcoin Conference in Ghana 2022 on: December 06, 2022, 11:33:17 PM
I'm not sure if using Bitcoin to pay a ransom to kidnappers is exactly the sort of development we'd like to see with Bitcoin, but I'm glad that someone feels they were helped out by it. 

I like the second story much better and would like to think that Bitcoin has helped some oppressed women become financially independent from those that control them.  I hope that these sorts of stories are what continue to appear as they represent the good side of Bitcoin, while story #1 seems to represent more of the bad side of what Bitcoin can be used for.  With a little luck, maybe we'll see more of story 2 in the future and less of story 1. 
Even in the first story it looked like the usage of bitcoin helped her at the right time. They've requested for $5k and if they've sold the person to libyans then it would be $40k. By that time she had made use of the bitcoin as a way to reach the kidnappers at the earliest.

Second story is really good and a life changing thing. In a country like Afghanistan, Women into educating women and trying to develop good skills within them is really appreciable and a must for the progress of the country.
1394  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will Bitcoin Price Hit $23,000 in Q1 2023? on: December 05, 2022, 11:51:41 PM
As the year end is getting closer, people have begun to speculate on the price for the falling year. Only time can answer. We can move forward with the positive mind. As the very first response stated there is possible chances of price going high above $25k during the first quarter of the year 2024. Possibly the market will have positive move, atleast $20k will be touched.
1395  Economy / Economics / Re: 5 things you should not do with your money to get rich on: December 05, 2022, 11:48:31 PM
I've seen many friends of mine reading the books with titles how to become rich, billionaires words etc. I don't know how this could make an impact over one's life. You know what you need to be and you are supposed to run for it. Maybe the words can inspire, but it is you and me to run. Set the target and run, surely one can turn rich even if he wasn't able to make himself a billionaire  Smiley
1396  Economy / Economics / Re: House is a forced saving on: December 05, 2022, 11:11:35 PM
House isn't a forced saving for a person who is in need. As most users mentioned it varies between users. Recently my friend booked an apartment for $50k, and it is in the prime location. After years the price is surely gonna increase and even if he was not in the place to use it. The builder have opted for $250 monthly rental agreement. As the money gets deducted from his salary every month this turns to be an investment. As he's in rental house earlier, now he'll be paying EMI for the home and the rental gets cancelled.
1397  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Types Of Online Casinos To Avoid.. on: December 05, 2022, 11:05:26 PM
They could have an announcement thread here but if they kept ignoring the accusations and the accusations are valid that makes them a casino to avoid, and if they are going to address issues about the complaints it should be satisfactorily whoever side it will be, there are a lot of casinos that are guilty of manipulating their investigations when presenting to the community, the gambling community is wise enough to avoid these kinds of casinos.
Users needs to be wise enough to understand the right platform. There is a big list of cryptocurrency accepted gambling sites that don't have announcement thread on our forum. However they've gained the trust of users which is the success of the platform.

We've got a big list of trusted platforms, so it isn't a hard task to stay away from the platforms that have got bad reputation.
1398  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is pay to earn considered gambling? on: December 05, 2022, 10:59:40 PM
This too a kind of gambling. Here you're playing against the players, whereas with caisnos you play against the system. Play to earn is different from the method thats been putforth. In village region people used to bet within themselves while playing cards. The process is the same, everyone contributes equally and the winner takes everything. For users who are addicted to gaming, could prefer play to earn because the player receive very small rewards for the time spent.
1399  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIFA 2022 world cup on: December 05, 2022, 10:54:58 PM
Brazil vs South Korea between these two teams Brazil won the match by 4 goals. South Korea scored 1 goal in the match. But I thought it would be a hard fought game but it was not. South Korea did not play very well in this match.  However, in this match, Brazil played well from start to finish.
That's a wrong prediction from you. From the very beginning it is known that the match winner is Brazil. To the expectation the Brazil players were dominant throughout the match. South Korea to win against Brazil is really tough and in this season of FIFA more such incidents happened. Having the same in mind Brazil could've made themselves strong from the beginning than struggling at the end minutes.

It's just like "Martingale system" but reverse on win situation.
I think all this time I've been using the martingale system it never worked for me in dice games, but I also haven't tried it in blackjack games either, I thought this strategy won't work in other casino games either, but you convinced me it really works and succeed
Martingale doesn't work in loss streaks but it generates awesome combo during winning streaks. I have hunted back to back blackjack hits with double on reverse martingale, the results were incredible along with huge wager unlike dealing with loss streaks on martingale.
Maybe the success of yours is out of the luck and not of the martingale strategy. Whether one is on the winning streak or losing streak, without good purse amount it isn't possible to use the martingale strategy. We can come across a big number of users experiencing the success out of martingale strategy, but at any cost it doesn't assure of winning. This means the luck have brought the win and not the strategy.
