Mbappe got a super man power in him in 2nd round .. even the whole Argentina team was so upset but they both played well and they both deserve appreciation

He was so disappointed when the full time arrived and he wasn't able to score a fourth goal  Cheesy

It looks like he will take over Messi as the greatest player in the world, he's so good.

And the speed he can achieve is out of this world.

I mean he probably can arguably be claimed as the best player in the world now.  I mean France didn't win but that's not because of Mbappe.  Dude did everything he could for that squad to win.  His equalizer in regular time was beautiful.  Not many people can pull that one touch volley like he did.  Glad for Messi though.  Feather in the cap of his career.
Mbappe did the best and that's the reason he wasn't able to control his emotions till the end of the ceremony. As said doing an equaliser at the regular timing above 80 minutes of the game is really hard thing. On the other side it was Messi who have been doing his job to lift the trophy. It was Argentina to win easier, but Mbappe changed the scenario and made the match much interesting.

Gambling site is not a bank, nor it is an exchange. Most gamblers, more than 90% of them, deposit on a gambling platform only what they can afford to lose. They are not like "The more money I invest in it, the more profit I will get." Only sick people think that way, only so called "problem gamblers" see gambling as some sort of a business, and, fortunately, there's less than 10% of them among gamblers. So, can it be mandatory for gambling sites to show proof of money to those people, to problem gamblers? I don't think so. Those people need professional medical treatment rather than "proof of money", something that will likely only worsen their condition.
That is true for some but I think there are some who bets more than what they can afford because this is gambling man and it is addicting or someone will get annoyed when they lose so they will try to deposit again in the hopes of recovery. Also there are gambling sites that can work like a bank or an exchange where they allow gamblers to invest money on them.

If you are a gambler whose aim is to make profit, you believe that the more capital you have the more your chances of winning because you can be able to spin more and there are cases where big multipliers came out the longer you play the game. This is why showing proof of money is necessary.

This is a horrible approach to gambling, and I would advise strongly against it. Although it is true that the higher your bets, the more you can win, we shouldn't forget that we are always a bit more likely to lose. That is why we should never risk more than we can afford to lose, no matter how big our imaginary potential rewards can be.

As for the "showing proof of money", I think only governmental regulators can say if that "proof" is really a proof. Regular folks like us can be easily fooled.

Everything you say is very true, also what you say at first is very true, I do not think that depositing money in a casino can be seen as an investment, it is obviously the money that we are willing to lose, it is much more likely to lose it than win it, that is something that no one can deny, we are fighting against the advantage that the casino has plus the advantage that the game has, which is a system that is difficult to win, only touches of luck is what can be taken advantage of, this is what We must be very careful in Ceuna, where there are platforms with few investment options, perhaps with those that have tokens, but that is an investment that is made in the very, very long term.


Deposit we've made on Casinos can't be connected with investment. When you gamble you have the chance to win/loss whereas with investment you'll experience good return/loss, but it is possible to recover the capital if the user have got the ability to hold. The same isn't possible with gambling.

Lost is lost, and we need to make further deposit which is quite risky. Luck plays major part with gambling as well as with investment. So, when we find ourselves lucky it is good to make use of the opportunity and try to make an exit for that time period.

I don't remember the first attempt, and based on what I remember the betting platform is Directbet and the bet was on tennis matche. I lost the bet, and it was a try to understand how things work and I never had any idea about tennis and the players involved with the match. From there slowly started to make more and more number of sports betting particularly on tennis and cricket matches.

Shakib is way past his prime which is why I'm not expecting any crazy heroics from him. Expecting him and the remaining 3 players who are basically bowlers to score 241 runs is crazy if you think about it.

This game is over because India has already won. What's left to see is by how big a margin they end up winning against them.
With the position Bangladesh is in right now, only weather can help them, either way i did not expect Bangladesh to play out the entire day tonight but the openers played an incredible fightback with a century partnership but the rest of the batsman were struggling and at one point i was thinking whether the pitch became flat with the way the openers were batting Cheesy.

The way Bangladesh's opening pair was performing, I thought Bangladesh might win the match. But even though the two openers played well, we did not see good batting from the later batsmen. Bangladesh had a chance to win this match if the next three batsmen batted with some responsibility. Now Miraj and Shakib are at the crease. Both are experienced players. But collecting 241 runs is very difficult. I think next day Bangladesh will lose all wickets to collect 100-120 runs.
I think Bangladesh have played fairly well in the fourth innings, i was never expecting them to win but a total of even 300 in the 4th innings is pretty decent considering what they made in their first innings.
It true that they played much better than the first innings specially from the side of Batting. But still I also think that this match is already in the favour of India. Bangladeshi openers did well but the middle order batsmens performance was pretty bad I think If there was any chance of winning here, it is already lost for them. Shakin and Miraz on the strike lets see what can they do tomorrow.
Shakib Al Hasan and Mehidy Hasan on the strike gives them the hope, though India is getting closer to win as four wickets are left with 241 runs to be scored. The performance from Bangladesh is much better than the first innings. Being on the home ground, Bangladesh need to perform better than this.

As I told you this match was the match that no one will remember in the future.
Perhaps only the fans of the two teams will remember it.

Incredible world championship for Morocco and confirmation of Croatia's third place like 4 years ago. Amazing result in my opinion.
The consecutive goals from the Croatia followed by Morocco within few minutes was really nice to watch. Performance from both the teams were incredible and the match will be remembered by the football fans irrespective of the team. Now it is time to buckle up to watch the much expected France vs Argentina. Mostly this is going to be a win for Argentina.

There have been a lot of Bitcoin fork after Bitcoin cash, and none has made half the impact Bitcoin has done. 50-100 years is too far to guess what to expect the present forks is enough to give a picture of what to expect if the future generation tries to fork Bitcoin because they feel they missed the early accumulation phase it will only end up in altcoin projects except there will be a different ledger system more advanced than the blockchain anything that operate on the blockchain as a crypto currency forked from Bitcoin remains altcoin.
Same as this we can see more people trying to fork bitcoin. Someone like Roger will claim it to be the real bitcoin keeping some legal players. This is common as everything is connected with money. The generation needs to understand about blockchain and later they won't think of cloning the bitcoin network so to own a single cloned bitcoin.

Not easy for sure, I have been doing this for many years and I can say that its getting harder by time. Not because of the job itself, job is fine, but because you also live a life.

So, if you spend time on sleeping, spend time at work, and then spend time at trading, what is left for you? Nothing, when do you go out? When do you watch a movie? When you do play a game? When do you date? If married when do you spend time with your wife? It becomes a tough thing and it takes a lot of hard work to not make that a problem in your life.
Yeah, it is a tedious task to concentrate on different things at the same time. Good is to have the time allocated for different purposes. To me trading is just a way to increase the holding, here I just open a trade and leave it. When our preference is to execute the trade on the hourly basis the risk and the concentration is must. Living with job and trading is possible to some extent.
1448  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Brazil Fan Token Down 60% After Losing to Croatia on: December 16, 2022, 11:49:02 PM
Fan's token is always will be pump & dump because it’s price will increase or decrease it’s totally depend on the team results in the game, if Brazil lost with croatia and they’re eliminated from the world, so that this token hype is ended, and it’s immediate effect on the token price. So, i think buying fans token it’s high risky investment
These are high risk investment and these tokens doesn't have any MVP. Just on the speculation the market gets driven, because the price moves were connected with the match results. As the Brazil Fan token is developed and launched by the Brazil Football Federation it gained the attention of everyone and got good investment. For users who watch Brazil matches it is good to invest before the match and enjoy the profit once the match gets over. Cheesy

In today's match, India Women's team lost to Australia Women's team by 21 runs. India women's team could not do well in low order batting If they can perform well in low order batting, this match could have been won by India women's team. According to my knowledge, India women's team is a strong team. But recently the Indian women's team is not performing well at all. Australia women's team performed well in both batting and bowling
India Woman is a strong team but Australia is leaps and bounds above the rest of the teams in terms of performance and winning percentage, like the old 90s and 2000s men's team and you need to have some incredible performance to defeat them even when India is playing in their home turf. India is dependent on the top order to perform unlike Australia who has some power hitters down the batting order as well.
In the past if Australia men's team is playing, then it'll be a win from Australia. Such a position is being achieved by Australia Women and the same is being stopped by the India Women team. After the defeat by India, now Australia Women team had made a comfortable win and leads the series. The next match will be the decider as the winning of the match conclude the series result.

Every region have got their local games that are being played for entertainment purpose. At times people spend money on these games and play on special occasions. In online caisnos these games can be added as player against player game. For users who prefer playing their local games have got the games developed as applications and not available in gambling platforms.
1451  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIFA 2022 world cup on: December 15, 2022, 11:14:59 PM
I can't predict who's winning between Morocco and Croatia. The two sides played very well both In the knockout stage and the semifinals. Though Croatia has the upper hand based on experience, I think Morocco's last play in the semi-finals tells that they wanted to reach the end of the tournament, as such, they will leave no stone unturned while playing the quarter-finals. All I know is that the side with a better game plan will win the match.
I pick croatia over morocco. Croatia has greater chance to beat morocco to get the third place in the world cup. The defensive line of croatia is far greater compared with morocco. The problem is croatia must face argentina which is on fire now.
I guess that if this time croatia become more favorite compared with morocco by bookmakers by giving it small odds but both were almost equal between one to the each other. It's really hard to predict caused by sometime morocco was also making a surprise.

Yes, Croatia is more favorite but who know their defeat 3-0 can have an impact on their mentality because the defeat is clearly an unexpected surprise
I predict this match ended in a draw and through a penalty shootout
Few more days and we'll get the answer for the match. For now, it is Croatia to win the match against Morocco. The match against Argentina is a big disappointment and nothing expected have taken place. I was eager to watch Finals between Croatia and Morocco. Now the same is happening for the third and fourth position.
1452  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Best Crypto Gambling this year? on: December 13, 2022, 09:33:03 PM
I understand that there could be some rules that prevented it, but Stake is by far the best casino out there that accepts crypto. Anyone who says otherwise doesn't know how good Stake could be.

Only problem is that they insist on higher odds at sportsbetting, I keep saying that they need to lower their odds, right now it is way too much, and I do not mean like just a little, it's not like 1.70 to 1.75 (has there ever been 0.05? not sure) but it's like literally 1.70 to 1.90 difference, and that's just too much, not even like 1.80, but more. So, if they could drop their odds to everyone's level then it would be by far the best sportsbook as well, but as a casino they are already there.
Agreed, Stake have got the lead in all parameters. For the mentioned reason on the sportsbook there is little variation which makes the odds between other platforms and stake vary alot. This too isn't a big thing, even if that is considered Stake could've got positioned within the top 5. So, the list seems to be a chosen one out of various other parameters.
1453  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why every casino got bad habits? on: December 13, 2022, 09:27:24 PM
As OP have said each and every casino have got scam accusation made by users. In most of the case there won't be solid proof. Casinos always take a chance to profit and when things didn't work they comply with the terms of service and try to restrict the users winning streak. This leads to making of scam accusation, proper proof added and the same gets solved by the casino to keep its reputation. This is quite common and some platforms never think of the accusations and continues to do the same which affects its reputation.

Argentina have prepared very well for the game against Croatia... I expected both teams to score, but I was unlucky... Lucky for those who had no doubts about Leonel Messi's team... I'm looking forward to the Argentina vs France game in the final... Hopefully the French will repeat Argentina's game tomorrow and we'll have a great final waiting for us...
The match of Argentina vs Croatia isn't bad. Argentina came up with the plan to dominate from the beginning and the same gave hands, making 2 goals at the first half of the match. During the second half Alvarez once again made a goal, and Croatia in pressure wasn't able to convert the ball possession into goals. Argentina have reached the finals and Messi fans around the world will be enjoying it.
1455  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Not all new Projects are bad, So take the Risk on: December 12, 2022, 11:59:16 PM
Yes, not all new projects are bad in the community, because there are some new projects that has something reasonable to offer to their customers at the end of the project, which many people have tested such projects in the past that made them to believed that new projects Can also offer a good profits like old projects . Before investing in a new projects try to carry out your personal research to know how strong the team are to make the project successful in the future.

It is important not to forget that part, I mean doing your deep research with new project making sure that you are fully convinced that the future will be good for that asset before you take your step in investing to that particular asset. There are many available new coins but only a few will survive and will give you decent profits.

Make sure that you sort it all and you have all the reason to continue and spend both your time and your money on that project.

Some projects even before the launch will be under hard discussion. Few such projects I came across in the past were Casper and Mina Protocol. Those are good investment during its presale. Once after the presale, on reaching the market it grew good and profited all the users who got slot during the pre-sale. Right now those are at its all time low price. Finding such coins and taking risk could bring profit. Anyhow DYOR, before making decisions.
1456  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What do you think about filecoin? on: December 12, 2022, 11:07:09 PM
Filecoin has made all rich those who once invested in it on coinlist, it is one of the gems of 2021. The project does not look dead, even though it lost most of its value, but it still has an impressive capitalization and is now worth even below the price of ico. It's a good option to buy if you want to make 5-10x on this coin. Of course, this is not investment advice, DYOR. I bought some Filecoin, hopefully in a few years the price will be trading at $50-100 again.
Filecoin is much into discussion for the core purpose over which the project is being developed. It gained good number of investors and the people who were able to invest during its ICO got to be lucky. There is continued fluctuation, but it is considered as one of the strong project that could bring long term profit.

For now it is time to invest considering its ath. However it is quite hard to experience the previous ATH reached by filecoin. As suggested the investment will surely bring more than 5X return when the market turns bullish.
1457  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cock fight game on: December 12, 2022, 11:01:30 PM
Seeing the same, in the place where i live, government officials are also participating, especially those police who love this gambling. Gamblers are free to play since they are heavily protected.

Police professionals here in our country are not allowed to participate in any form of gambling, especially in gambling like cockfighting.

That was prohibited because it might lead to self-interest and abuse. It will lead to kicking on the service permanently.

You will never see police here playing that gambling game that's why as much as possible they are hiding their identities just to play this gambling game.
Yeah, they're not allowed to participate and enter the gambling premises. Whether it's cockfighting or any type of gambling activity, it's part of the public official's oath that they shouldn't engage in any type of gambling activity or else, when they're reported, they'll take a sanction.
That's for sure but it can't be stopped if there are police officers that are still gambling no matter what the rules and oath they've taken, if they're a gambler, they'll always be a gambler.
Those kind of rules are incredibly difficult to enforce as it is not as if those which due to their profession cannot gamble will actually tell everyone they are doing it, another example of this are athletes which are not supposed to gamble on matches in which they participate, with some leagues asking to not even make any kind of bet on the league or the sport at all, and yet we get to know many examples of this over the years, and those are only the ones which are caught as most likely there are many athletes which break the rules and we never find out about it.
Organization do set out some rules which is that considerable and pretty obvious but its not a surprise that there would be those individuals or groups that would really be trying out to oppose such rule or laws

just for them to make out bets for themselves and would really be able to get out on authorities eyes or on the organization.Lets back on the topic about cock fighting then its not really that something surprising

yet there are really something like this on some countries which had been part of their culture.Some might be saying that this is animal cruelty but this is where
gamblers do really spend their time and money most specially on rural areas.
Not only with gambling, each and everything have got rules to be followed. People find happiness breaking the rules. As said, organizations frame the rules and it is the people to break it. Here we're talking about the policeman and we need to understand they're human beings.

These kind of gambling activities happen largely on the rural regions. It is connected to culture, tradition and slowly people have begun to forget it when moving to urban region for life. Every part of the world have got something to gamble with animals and there are organisations against it. Amidst the opposition people continue it, and the organization can't oppose beyond limit as it is connected with them in some means.

India Women's team bowlers are bad in bowling but the batting start is very good. India Women's team batsmen are batting well. India women's team is much ahead of Australia women's team in terms of run rate. India women's cricket team scored 64 runs without losing a wicket in 6.5 overs. Although the Australia women's batting performance is good, the bowling line-up is not favourable. If the Australia women's bowling line-up is not strong. India women's team has a chance  win the match in today's match

I was not able to watch this match but the scorecard tells the story that it was very interesting match between Australia and India. Both scored 187 and good thing is India women finally able to win the match on super over. Its good to see some team finally beating Australian women team. Series is tied now and will be interesting.
The series have got tied with two more matches left. 5 match bilateral series have made the world watch them. Upcoming matches will be interesting, because one who wins both the match will be the winner of the series. Australia Women have the upper hands and with the previous match performance India women team could've gained confidence. Also this match will have good number of viewers watching through different media sources.

I'm not sure, but there are chances of cryptocurrency acceptance from live Casinos. In most of the Casinos the amount will be paid and recieved in the format of chips. The chips carry the value, based on what we've paid we'll get the number of chips.
