To be fair it was a bit of a tougher game than I expected, I would have assumed that it would have been a very easy win for us, after beating 14 teams in a row, this one didn't really look like a big deal at all and one of the games that we could get easily. However, anyone who watched our most recent games would know that we were barely winning while keeping this run going, it was good, and I think it is definitely going to give us the title, all thanks to that run, but it had to end somewhere. Kudos to Konya, they played very well and tough, they really wanted that win and they totally deserved it.
Most of the peoples were feeling after having 14 wins things looking easy for the Galatasaray, and they can handle this all without any problem with the stats and play of visitors things were in their favor as well, but injury time goal give big below even right now they are still in good position and having strong hold at the top, but this is timely reminder for them any team can give you shocking defeat, so you have to settle all things with tougher mind.

After few poor weeks now Konya is doing good and now have second win with three matches without defeat mean they are preparing for better end of this season while many teams at the top are struggling badly now tomorrow Fenerbahçe is going to visit Alanya for the narrowing this difference which is currently nine points hopefully after tomorrow match this will have just 6 points difference.

Rockets are on a 3 game winning streak, which is not what I really expected to be fair, they are a bottom team that is tanking, so them getting three wins in a row is beyond what I could have predicted. Maybe they guaranteed their position so that is why they are playing a bit better and the coach is showing what he can do with this team if given the chance and not asked to be tanking.

In the end, this could also be because they have young players who are not tired whereas other teams already played 70 games give or take and all of them are tired and the playoff ones are just resting right now until the playoffs to be more ready (unless their playoff spot is in danger).
1943  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Referral bonuses are waste of time on: March 18, 2023, 06:48:49 PM
In my opinion, I think referral bonuses are typically waste of one's time because of its processes that seems so impossible to claim and recently I came across a thread
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5437603.0 seeking for Casinos with paid referral bonuses and I tool out time to read most of the responses there and they all seem impossible to claim referral bonuses.
I wish to know if anyone has successfully claimed referral bonuses and how easy was the process and what Casino did you claim those bonuses
I don't know because I've never made referrals to get bonuses and they pay or not, I think each casino has its own rules in referral bonus services, and if you consider that it's just a waste of time and very difficult to get, maybe you need to show task what the casino did so i will try to understand what you mean about this.
Maybe if you feel it is a waste of time, you should not do it and look for another casino that provides an easier process to get bonuses from referral promos or you don't do that at all.
isn't that the easier option?
Are you not curious to try it? You better try it and know to your self if doing this is easy on your side or not because some people have lots of connections and they can recommend anything to those people. When those people sign up and try it, that is how you get your bonus. It was truly paying as long as you have signed up on a reputable company.

The rules about referral programs are almost the same but they mainly differ in the amount of bonus that the company is paying. This is why if you check the thread above, you will see that the OP of that thread is only looking for the high paying ones. If we think the bonus amount is too low then there is no need to try them.

Tax regulations throughout the world are certainly different and in my country income tax is annoying, those who do not have large income but work are obliged to report wealth, in my opinion this is not effective and wasted time, income tax is indeed easy to apply for them Those who have large income or government employees, while private workers certainly do not need to report because they do not get facilities from the state.
High or Low income, everyone get's annoyed with it because you are being charged regularly. It's like an added expense to the ones that we already have but indeed that your country is more brutal because even the low income earners are still being asked with it but maybe their tax rates are much smaller than those who earn huge? It's not effective if people don't follow it but if it's mandatory, do you think you can avoid it? And even if you do, you will still be punished badly once you get caught.

Some of those who lived in your country or those who work privately are still lucky because you said they are not being taxed. This is not the case that is happening in other countries. There are even some who are being taxed even if they are only dealing with cryptos can you imagine that?

Feyenoord's performance against Shakhtar was just something else really. Of course I know Shakhtar's situation now and it is still a good thing for them to reach this stage. But the first leg wasn't like this. Feyenoord were just patient to put on a solid show in Netherlands. That 7-1 win was like threatening the other teams but we will see. They have drawn the attention of people to themselves for now. But their performance against Roma in the quarter finals will be more important.

Roma are going to be a way tougher opponent for Feyenoord. Roma came here by eliminating a tough opponent like Real Sociedad. If they really care about the Europa League title Feyenoord have a really difficult job in this stage against them. I already support Roma in this matchup.
Feyenoord's performance against Shakhtar was stunning because no one was expecting win like this even they are good and capable of doing good performance, but this was surely out of the course, but now they are going to face another giant of Europe which is having good record and performance with quality is also at this best hopefully fans will be having good interesting performance from these two teams in this match with most chances now Roma is after winning first Conference league title good to go for the challenge of Europa Cup even it's never been easy in presence of teams like Juventus and Manchester United but as the nature of UEFA competitions we can expect any upset here as well.

Roma is surely now after poor start in Serie A doing good job and spotted at fifth with next round match against Lazio is also challenging, but they can do good and turn the tables for their own under Mourinho who is also master of winning the trophies.
1946  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Betting strategy question on: March 17, 2023, 11:55:43 PM
The house will always win from the gamblers who lose. The gambler who loses here means that more gamblers lose their money than gamblers who can get big profits. Indeed some gamblers can earn a lot of money from gambling, and many use strategies, but it will also depend on their luck.

If they are lucky, they don't even need to use strategy in placing bets, which happens in some sports betting. But by using a strategy, whatever the name, someone can win the game and take home the money, while many people lose in one or more gambling games, meaning the casino takes home the money.
Well, though luck plays a vital role in every part of life, and in gambling, it is an essential point for someone to be able to win, but when it comes to sports betting, I believe it is more based on skills, research and analysis and not solely on luck, though luck can also have a factor in it especially if there are sudden injuries or cancellations and stuff that affect the results.

Talking about the house, it is not beatable in the long run, though a wise gambler can take a step back as soon as they win something bigger than what they have lost so far, most gamblers can't do that and they eventually give it all away to the house by the end.

Emotional discomfort like anger, pain, doubt, despair, guilt, hatred and many more are the effects if you do not fully accept and understand the risk and the nature of the gambling. If you do not wager a big amount of money, then you will not experience any kind of negative emotions. Being a neutral state is the key for us to become a successful gambler, it is not easy and that is the reason why only few people who are keep making big bucks in gambling.

Losses in gambling is really normal, what's not normal is you keep getting emotional discomfort or what I called negative emotion because of gambling. It is really dangerous if you keep negative thoughts and negative emotions dwells on you because there is a high possibility that you can make a very bad decision. That is the reason why we should always observe our self for us to be aware to our current emotion and state.
Very well, particularly, anger can lead us to make very rash decisions at times, and we don't basically realize it until we reach the final destination where we have nothing left except regret inside of us. Those who are emotionally strong tend to be better gamblers because they can control their anger and don't chase their losses in anger to turn them into wins.

If we do that, we will only make things worse for ourselves and we won't even realize it. So it is always best to learn to control your emotions, especially the negative ones, to save yourself from suffering extreme losses from gambling.

Everything looks so serious not until I read this "lot's of sex" lol but this might be true because people are mostly staying inside their homes. There is no problem with it as long as people are doing it responsibly but I bet this covid made the population grow bigger quickly or maybe not really because there are still lots of people who are dying. The newborn babies are just their replacement.

Each government must have provided their people a free food and money in order for them to survive. People can also choose to plant crops on their background. They can also look for a job online if it's not possible to go outside. There are lots of ways actually but sometimes people are just lazy and hopeless already.

Benzema will stay with Real Madrid for one more year, he just renew his contract with the blancos.
No doubt it has ben rumored since january if benzema will be extending his contract with real madrid since real madrid still sees him as a good strikfor the club. Even though injury was prevnting him to play regularly with the main squad but he was still able to write his name in the current top scorer of la liga which is really good.

Since rodrygo is not as good as benzema and real madrid still faces a problem to buy a new striker due to the some clubs that owned these strikers are so difficult to let one of these striker go out and i think that giving benzema another season is the best deicision from real madrid.
This is going to be good move for the Real Madrid because despite having injuries and many times off the field he is premier goal score for the champions, and he can do this business for the one more season which will help youngsters for having good experience with him and check their problems because Rodrygo is still very young and after having one more season with Karim Benzema he can do good for the future even most chances Real Madrid will try to have another attacking striker for the future even things are not clear, but we can expect something from them in coming summer transfer window because in this season they are doing average performance due to many injuries, and they will try to check things for the better results.

For the long run they already have few players under their target list, but how things will be go nothing is clear because many clubs are not happy to allow their main players for the leave which is also issued for them.
1950  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: March 16, 2023, 06:38:12 PM
Paris Saint Germain got lots of superstar payers and much more investments compared to the other teams so I guess for the other teams like Marseille and Monaco it's difficult to get close to them, however after they lost in the champions league, Neymar got injured and Messi going to leave, PSG's atmosphere is not good like the other days and I guess there is a chance for them to lose some points during the games they are going to have.
With now another early exit from Champions League mean things could be not normal at PSG, and we will have few changes in coming summer while most chances Messi will also leave, and we will also have new coach because current coach Galtier fail to have required results and expectations which are surely going to hurt management's plane even right now Ligue 1 title is under their control, and they have 10 points vital lead which is having good advantage for them and current performance of all other top teams are also not good which give them chance for the chase.

Now, we will have few other things as well likely Messi will be out and then Neymar is also burden can PSG management able to have any good buyer, or they will again spend big amount on him for another season and will wait for the end of his contract for releasing him from here because Mbappé is surely best for them and alone he can achieve good results as well.

There is things that I found out many people who is in bitcointalk do not like the development of 1xbet so I believe that they see this platform like a scam platform that have no roots of sincerity why when you come to the aspect of payment and the quick response to customers it is 1xbet customer service that do respond to issues when the needs arise but when the people do not accept such so I believe of what people can do.
There is a wider space between responding to customers vs solving issues or getting accounts banned and blocked without adequate due diligence, the lack of willingness on the part of the operators of thos casinos to resolve customers' issues as it borders around funds.

-This issue has dented the image of the casinos and no matter what they do to promote their platform, it will still have minimal impact on the reputation of the site.
I think their purpose on promoting their site is not to gain back their good old reputation but it is to scam more people. This might be the only thing that they can do judging the amount of people that they have scammed. It will be hard for them to sort it all and many of those people just accepted the fact that they can not recover their money anymore.

A quick responding customer-support is nice to have in a casino but it will be useless if the support will just keep making excuses to delay the issue and the complainant will eventually give up and forget about their money. That's very unprofessional. It just shows that the casino has a bad intentions and not to be trusted with.

Usually having this type of insane increase is a good thing to see, but we should be very careful with our hedged bets as well. Do not go into leverages just yet because you saw it go up, spot trading and buying bitcoin right now could be the best thing that you could do because we are talking about a profit that could help you in the long run.

We failed to go over 25k for the longest time and now we are around $24.5k levels, why? Because fiat is getting screwed right now and that is an important part of bitcoin that will help us grow bigger. I personally believe that the best thing to do right now would be holding, wait for it to grow, and you could sell when it goes over the all time high price.
1953  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: March 16, 2023, 07:01:59 AM
Chelsea's next match will be against Everton. If peradventure they win, it will take them a step further to the 9th position of the premier league table.
Everton are playing much better since Sean Dyche took over and I think Chelsea will struggle against Sean Dyches tactics. He is probably the best manager for Everton in their current position and Chelsea are still stuck with Dean Potter who does not excel at tactics and I think Sean Dyche will show Dean Potter how to get the best out of his players even though they are not better individual players then Chelseas players. I think it could be a eye opener and I think it could be the final impact Dean Potter has because if he loses badly against Everton he could get fired. Sean Dyche is going to be a hero at Everton and I think he will be there for many years.
Sean Dyche's impact surely bring positive change in this club as now they are out of the relegation zone and improving their performance which is also good even they are still in danger zone, but now this positive change is going to be good for them and Chelsea game is surely going to be not easy for the both teams because they are coming out of the bad period and now having three wins streaks and Everton is also having good time with win against Brentford is surely going to be had good impact on their performance, and they could be confident for the game against Chelsea.

Both teams having good changes in last few weeks and now their this game is clearly going to have good show as well here any point could be good for the visitors and Chelsea is also going to give their best because they are looking for extending their winning streak from three to four.
1954  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can we experience $80k this year? on: March 16, 2023, 05:32:18 AM
Until now or it's been 2.5 months something big happened that makes us optimistic that this year it can touch $80k, in January the price went up more than 42% and yesterday the price went up more than 19%, I'm sure March can go up at least 30% so in march it will be at least $30k, slowly the price will continue to rise so i believe september or october it will be $80k.
An increase in the price or not, people that have a solid faith in Bitcoin are always optimistic and it does not mean that the price that they are hoping for Bitcoin to reach is $80k. As long as they already saw a good recovery, people are already happy and proud of Bitcoin. I have seen people whose target for this year is only $30k.

I think that price is great as well because we still have next year and it will be better if great things will only be seen in the main event right? But if ever BTC reach $80k, well what can we do? Nothing but we are still glad about it. The next target after that would be $100k but people shall sell some first because a drop might still come along the way.

If Selfie is asked to upload then it can be at anywhere depending on the location and the place you are at the moment, so if it is on the road, in the car, or in the room they would see it and accept it. My brother, if the amount to withdraw is big and they need the KYC to clarify everything before allowing you to withdraw the money, it is better you do it to withdraw the money before they changed their mind because this casino owners are always looking for one thing to the other to decline and cancel large withdrawal.

But I don't really like casinos stressing someone at the time of withdrawing his win with KYC. KYC would done before the withdrawal so things will be easy for the gambler to do.
I think they won't care if where you are or what is your background as long as they can see your face clearly but like the user above said, there are a few gambling site who ask you to selfie next to a street sign. I think this was a lil bit insane and can be dangerous too because your phone might get snatched or you might get hit by a car.

If I'll be asked about this, I don't think I can do this immediately because there is no street sign on the place where I live but I need to travel in the town first lol. Usually, KYC is asked if the withdrawal amount is huge. I think that is for them to know that it wasn't a laundered money and also to know that the original owner still controls the account. There are still gambling sites who can ask a KYC at the start or even if the withdrawn money is only small.
1956  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2022/2023 on: March 15, 2023, 09:25:39 PM
Before u start seeing Saudi Arbia professional league to be in the same height as EPL,  please know that Even when Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar,  iniesta, and so many other world class players were playing in Spanish la liga and German Bundesliga, EPL was still considered the best league.
epl isn't considered the best league because of the number of stars playing in it. Ratings like  goals per game, red cards per game, continental wins per season and other factors are also involved. I don't see Saudi Arabian league reaching EPL in this ratings, not even in the next 10 years.
I believe comparing these leagues are never been fair because we have right now many leagues and mostly are going with their own way and quality right now Asian leagues are weakest and need good time for having enough quality for comparing with other leagues it's never been easy dude.

Just few years but still here many leagues are doing amazing stuff which is good and positive development, but it's going to take nearly 25 to 30 years for having better things here if they will increase their fan base and other things which are helpful for the development of this game Ronaldo is first drop and many more are coming in few years because they can give them enough money which is surely not possible for the UEFA clubs with China, Japan and Australian leagues are also doing good so for me things are positive in this region, and we will have good results in long run.
1957  Economy / Gambling / Re: A way to attract new users or a misunderstanding? on: March 15, 2023, 08:38:03 PM
It is not about the owner wanting to know the members in detail, but if they are planning to have license,
they need to require KYC from the players. However, if there's no license yet, there's no reason for them to oblige their players.
Web 3.0 platforms should operate on what they are promoting, users connected to a decentralized network.
If they require KYC and at the same time proud to be a web 3.0 site, then, something is wrong with the situation.
They are not truly a web 3 site but trying to emulate its concept. Players should doubt their motive on this regard.
Why not? I think this was one of the purpose of KYC and it wouldn't be called as KYC or know your customer for no reason. The site must know that their customers are clean and free from illegalities before so that the casino and its other customers are going to be safe. The casino can get license first and its license issuer are the ones who demands KYC to the casino then the casino demands KYC to its customers.

Casino still has the right to enforce their own rules because it was their site and we are just a player but we can back out if we do not want to deal with the KYC thing. Now that we are now aware that web3 isn't really decentralized, we shouldn't wonder anymore on why some still asks a KYC.
1958  Economy / Gambling / Re: No bet is a waste on: March 15, 2023, 07:20:49 PM
How is a lost bet not counted as a wasted bet? You lost your money, it means you wasted your money and you have to accept this. Don't make excuses for your losses, or you will end up gambling more and more. Every bet you lose, you should realize that you lost your money and if you keep on betting you might lose more. I mean never make any excuses to justify your losses.
Wow! Losing a wager may be as heartbreaking as a breakup. It hurts and stays in your head like an uninvited intruder. What's worse? Faking it and making excuses for losses. It's like hiding your shattered heart just to cry in a dark tavern. I've been there and received the T-shirt.

Losing a bet is not the end of the world. It's merely a small pothole on the road of lifee. Losing money stinks, but that's life. Like a rollercoaster, money gain and lose. Gambling's charm. It's exhilarating, unpredictable, and worth the risk.

Accept your defeats, learn from them, and keep going. Don't dwell on your failures or allow them deter you from betting. Because the next bet might change your life!
Well, I believe that the meaning of no bet is a waste isn't really what the sentence itself says, but it is simply a reference to the fact that when you lose something, you learn something. Remember, when we win, we just win, but when we lose, we learn something extra if we know in what way the loss should be taken.

If a loss is taken negatively, that can damage your mind and make you keep thinking about it again and again, but if taken positively, it can motivate you to do better the next time, and you will realize that whatever you had lost in the previous bet, wasn't basically a loss if it taught you to be stronger.
1959  Economy / Gambling / Re: No bet is a waste on: March 14, 2023, 08:51:10 PM
As far as i believe that no bet is a waste means to me that bto matter the condition with either winning or loosing you get a new experience when you gambles and learn something new, this may be from your mistakes made, from the bet, from the stake you made or from others'experience in gambling, there are some new discoveries one make from time to time as he continues with gambling, but whenever you discover such and learn from, it's a bad thing for you to allow a reoccurrence for the second time to happen.
Seems not all gambler learned from their mistake actually with losing position, seems have greedy and try to all in their fund for betting although finally have loss all without winning anytime. No doubt with losing is the new experienced and give us up coming next trick but not all gambler understood how to manage their loss when position unlucky.

I am still believing with lucky or not in gambling, how much fund spent if not lucky seems not any time winning or get jack pot but when have lucky time seems always get chance to win although small fund for betting.
This is you will get if you focus too much on the profit side but it's also felt when one can't accept his losses. As a result they will play again and possibly increase the size of their bets to recover the past losses quickly but the chance to win gambling is always slim so what happens is the losses will only add up.

When you lose in gambling, how do you apply that new trick you are saying? Was it to play more carefully next time by betting only small amounts and playing on a more realistic odds? That's better and not by implementing different strategies like martingale because the outcome of it will still be the same. These stats might only be created by the gambling site owners only to lure people to play more.
1960  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A costly gambling mistake on: March 14, 2023, 06:46:10 PM
Not only the FAQ, but users must also read the TOS to understand how the casino operates. Some questions that should be answered before making the first deposit are:

1.- Does the site allow my County?
2.- Does the site have a good reputation on the forum and trust pilot?
3.- What's the withdrawal limit?
4.- Does the casino has a valid gambling license?

It's important to have clear rules and understand how the casino operates before making a deposit because as OP says, we have seen a lot of times users losing their money just for not having clear rules.
FAQ is much easier to read but there might be some things who can only be found on the TOS so indeed that they must also read it. In your first question, there is no way we can make a deposit if our country is unsupported because by the time we access the site we will see something like "sorry..,, blah, blah". The second one is already understood by everyone.

On number 3; I believe that many of us disregard this and we mainly focus on the minimum deposit but no doubt the minimum deposit is also important and must come first because there is still no assurance that we can win and withdraw. The last one may not really be important but many us can prefer casinos with no license because they don't usually have a KYC and many of them are still legit.
