1941  Economy / Gambling / Re: Chasing a x330,000 - Update: i hit it! on: July 18, 2022, 04:11:36 PM
The lucky number i get was 00.00.01, this means this could be a x495,000 win, but you know what, i'm happy with this shot.

Many congratulations brother on this win.


I have no idea why so many gamblers feel they achieved something big by hitting huge multipliers even though they won small amounts. Makes sense in gaming(Achievement hunting), but doesn't really make a lot of sense in gambling.

They are just purely numbers at the end of the day people. Anyway, to each their own as they say.

I think chasing after the multiplier is real gambling rather than chasing the money. I always feel that real gamblers are the ones like OP who actually enjoy gamble keeping the money factor apart.

It seems weird that you have decided to promote a 15 year old website on the forum right now.

I did not know that this is a 15 years old website. If the site is running for 15 full years, that means they are providing services for so many years and people also trust them?
There could be a reason the admin of the site did not know about bitcointalk before?
Anyways Lifetime 5% bonus is too much attractive for everyone.  Smiley

There’s a chance that this casino is just newly accepts crypto as payment method that’s why they are newly discovered the forum as well for us to notice this casino. By the looks of this casino, it looks like the typical classic fiat sportsbook that I’m using before.

Yes the word lifetime is attractive but most the casino offer this kind of bonus in weekly basis but with higher % bonus.
this payment with cryptocurrency in casino gambling is a recent adoption. Before any transaction or deposit in casino gambling with cryptocurrency is just new. Before it's fiat currency everybody know that it is a preferable one. But since cryptocurrency deposit want to take ground, i think it will make cryptocurrency more popular and people who don't like cryptocurrency will start using it for good development and value will be more recognized. I like using cryptocurrency to funds gambling

By introducing cryptocurrency to their website, they are not only making crypto popular ( crypto is already popular by the way  Wink ), they are doing themselves good as now people who prefer to gamble with crypto only, will join their site. This will increase their user base, more people will gamble on Olimp and therefore they will generate more revenue.

Remember that this wicket is not easy to play on and any target above or near to 300 will be a good one and it wont be easy for Pakistan to chase it.  
Srilanka lead by 261 and they still have three wickets in hand. The match is in balance now but if Srilanka manage to take lead above 300, the match will tilt in favor of srilanka.

It's 269 for 8. However, Chandimal is still at the crease. I would say Sri Lanka has a high chance of losing all their wickets before 300. But Maheesh Theekshana played brilliant innings of 38 runs in the first innings. If Theekshana and Chandimal form a partnership today, Sri Lanka will be able to collect up to 350. Now Sri Lanka leads by 273 runs. If they are able to give a target like 320, the match will be under the control of Sri Lanka.

For me , Dinesh Chandimal innings of 86 runs not out was a delight to watch.  Smiley
The lead is now 333 runs and they still have one wicket left. Even if this last pair of Srilanka get out cheaply tomorrow morning, the Srilanka team will be in full control of this test match. It's always difficult to chase anything near to 350 runs in the last innings on any pitch and this will be even more difficult to chase on this turning pitch.

1944  Economy / Speculation / Re: Do you regret buying before the dip on: July 18, 2022, 09:33:06 AM
Bitcoin buying and selling is something that we have to do very well, by knowing the elementary conduct of it before buying and selling of bitcoin. Theirs what i understand by investing more in the dip time, investment of cryptocurrency bring benefit and profit when you know the exact time and exact size it starts falling. Why people buy when Bitcoin is in the state of falling is because of they want to make profit during the time of bullish market


What is the ultimate dip for bitcoin in this bear season ? No one knows about it. Since when we do not know the exact bottom our only option is to buy on every dip and do dollar cost average. Few weeks before bitcoin fall to 17,500$. Many people did not but because they thought 13000$ was incoming but it did not happen. So in short we should not regret buying bitcoin if the plan is to hold for long term.

Sri Lanka is slowly moving towards big collections. They lost only 3 wickets. Opener Oshada Fernando was able to collect 64 runs. Kusal Mendis remains unbeaten on 68 runs. Sri Lanka will get a chance to play about 51 overs today. Sri Lanka will undoubtedly be able to collect more than 310 if they bat the whole day. Sri Lanka has a good chance to provide a big target and win the match.

Sri Lanka lost the seventh wicket for 235 runs. If they lose all wickets before 300 then I don't think Sri Lanka can win the match. Dinesh Chandimal and Ramesh Mendis are batting now. Chandimal is an experienced player. If he stays at the crease, Sri Lanka will be able to collect more than 300. But Pakistan's bowlers are also very experienced.

Remember that this wicket is not easy to play on and any target above or near to 300 will be a good one and it wont be easy for Pakistan to chase it. 
Srilanka lead by 261 and they still have three wickets in hand. The match is in balance now but if Srilanka manage to take lead above 300, the match will tilt in favor of srilanka.

I think there is more types then this though it might cover the majority of the mainstream.   I want to argue there is quite few players who want to understand and defeat the game despite it being an organized type of gamble not exactly competitive still some will want to find a way to understand and predict the results within the game.
  Obviously the main motivation remains money but also the interest would be in the victory of beating the game, this cannot be overstated as a big interest for some players.  A boring or straightforward game will gain less interest from this category of player even with equal prize money.

'I have to win'

Did you never have a friend who has to win at everything even silly kids stuff or whatever task isnt even supposed to be a game, just has got to be 1st always.   This is a strong theme for slots and card games surely.
I have met people like that during my life and they are no fun to be around, everyone is doing an activity to get some fun out of it and most of the time those people ruin the fun for everyone by trying to twist the rules or by arguing endlessly about something useless, and this is an incredibly dangerous attitude to have towards gambling because when they suffer a big loss they cannot let it go and they keep gambling thinking on recovering the money they have lost already, but the only thing they do is to lose more and more money in the process.

And these people who are in the process of recovering their losses or playing revenge gambling call themselves Casual Social Gamblers.
To categorize yourself as a Casual Gambler you need to accept the loss and you should be gambling money not to earn money but to have fun sometimes.
The motivation should be entertainment and not to target to get financial benefit from gambling.
1947  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Investing in Casino tokens such as BFG, OWL or TFS on: July 17, 2022, 05:13:44 PM
<snip>
I think all these three casino tokens are good and are already established good reputation and market. But to choose between the three right now, I think I will not choose the one that has been risen up in value. There could be reasons that it's only a short period of hype, but I believe on other coins that has been down so much right now, I think they will recover soon enough. Not an investment advice.

Yes, why would anyone invest in anyone of them? Why not divide your investment in all of these tokens? This way you will get reduce the risk in case any token/platform does not perform well.

Generally, all of these tokens are good ones as they have a perfect use case as they are the tokens of the gambling platform and people use these tokens to gamble on these sites.

It would be interesting to watch Kohli's batting performance today. I think the English side should be able to score more than 200 runs. They have lost 5 wickets but they have already scored 160 plus runs. I am not expecting much from Kohli in this match and I think this match will pretty much end up his career.

In this game, Kohli was unable to score more than 17 runs. Don't lose hope, Virat Kohli, you'll always come back stronger than before. When 3 wickets have already fallen, they don't seem to have the patience to stick around, but Pant and Pandya are forming a solid partnership now. Furthermore I don't see any obstacle that will prevent them from reaching the winning total and winning the ODI series.
Interesting to see the partnership between Pant and Pandya, it's good to see both these players in form before the world cup. I wish even Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli could come back in form so that the whole team looks good for the world cup. These 2 senior players have to be in form if India wants to win the world cup, because you cannot remove these players from playing 11 and if they remain in this form it is just hurting the batting line up.

India now need less than 50 runs with 12 overs remaining.

It is because of Rishabh Pant and Hardik Pandya that India is now in a winning position. The openers along with Virat Kholi again failed.
Its time that Virat Kohli should take some rest from international cricket as his presence with no form puts extra pressure on the Indian batting lineup.

1949  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: July 17, 2022, 10:16:08 AM
Pakistan is able to collect 158/9. Babar Azam and Naseem Shah are batting now. But the interesting thing is that Pakistan scored only 7 runs in the last 10 overs. Naseem Shah faced 24 balls but did not collect any runs. Pakistan needed such responsible batting now. Naseem Shah is now able to support Babar Azam quite well. If this continues, Pakistan's innings will not end before 180. I think 180 will be a good collection.

Naseem shah play 38 dot balls and finally hit a four runs. Naseem shah innings is really important here as he is giving champion Baber Azam to play and score a hundred. He is at 94 and each and every run here is a bonus for Pakistan. Its really frustrating for the bowling side when the last pair get stuck . Tea time now and Pakistan are 28 runs behind now. Even though i would say Srilanka played better through out the day but this last one hour belong to Pakistan team.
1950  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: July 17, 2022, 06:14:10 AM
Azhar Ali is gone already and he had scored only 3 runs in 41 balls. This will not help paksitani team cause as they should score at a faster rate.
Baber Azam and Rizwan is probably the best pair for the Pakistani team and they are now batting at a good strike rate too.

Edit: Rizwan is gone too. 64-4  Are we going to see another typical Pakistani batting collapse as Pakistan is never good when chasing low totals???

Pakistan is in trouble now. Now it is very difficult for Pakistan to collect more than 200 runs. But I would say Pakistan's last hope Babar Azam is still at the crease. As long as he stays at the crease, Pakistan's innings will continue to grow. Pakistan's innings will not go far if Babar Azam is out. So Babar Azam needs to play carefully and stay at the crease in any way.

Salman Ali is also out. He had taken the review but the decision of the third umpire was in the favor of the ground umpire's decision. Baber Azam is losing batsmen at other end.  Someone needs to stand with baber if not then it looks like the Pakistan team will be bowled out by the Srilankan team and they might even get a decent lead in the first innings.

Please keep us updated about the result, we will be glad to know about it.
Good luck op.

Already 225,000 bets and no luck.

Has been some hours now, but i keep chasing it, now i'm rolling with 0.0015 bets chasing a 500 clams win. Let's see how it goes.

Not sure if leave the bot running while i sleep, looks like the best option, at least it has the auto-stop when it hits the target. But isn't fun to hit a jackpot while we sleep, that's why i'm still thinking about it.

There are still a lot of bets lefts and you can't keep awake if it takes really long. I think since you have an auto stop, you better sleep with the hope that you will find your target when you wake up in the morning.

May i ask how much total money you have in your bankroll to keep this auto bet running?

There's nothing stopping you from doing that. You'd soil a blossoming business relationship that's paying $20/day for minimal effort. You could also copy our keywords, ad copy and create your own campaign with the same designs that we're running. I wouldn't want to compete with us but you could try it. Google is a long game. If you can sustain that then by all means, otherwise I'd stick with the $20/day.


Then what's stopping you from posting your "legal" business in the original post.
You are caught in your own lie now Wink



Ok if he does not want to post his niche and business publicly, its his right but i am wondering has he hired someone to do the task and did he paid anyone 20 bucks a day ?

There are few people who said that they have DM him, did anyone deal with him and got paid or got scammed  Shocked

I appreciate it but I'm actually looking to be the person writing..


The sites that shasan suggested have jobs for writers if you would check them out more deeply.
But perhaps again the problem is in you and in your language, and the problem here is not in people who do not understand you, but in the fact that you do not appreciate the advice that others give you Smiley

I'm not looking for a candidate to work for me... Once again... Like said above I'm looking for someone to hire me. I read over what he wrote fully. If you read closely he suggested to go to a website where I can find content writers to write for me now if you stop to think about that for a moment and REALLY pay attention here... Doesn't that indicate the opposite of what I'm looking for? Think it over.

From my understanding freelancer and upwork are for people like you as well. Maybe you need to visit the sites to see what they offer before completely ruling it out. You can do the same thing you did here in the forum in both of these site, get yourself registered, submit your resume in the sites and wait to be hired it is that simple.

After posting the job here or in any freelance platform, waiting is the most difficult thing to do. People usually think that they should get a job as soon as the job is posted. The newcomers can have to wait a bit longer before getting hired and need to control their emotions.
OP also needs to show patience and he will get the writing job sooner or later.

England vs India 2nd ODI
Congratulations to the England team.Winning today's match is huge for them. India gave a very poor performance in the second ODI match. And in that opportunity, England gave a better win today. England scored 246 runs for 10 wickets in 49 overs to win. And India scored 146 off 38.5 balls. England won by 100 runs.
I didn't think that England will play so much. I thought that England won't win this match.  But what I was thinking was a complete mistake.  I could not have imagined England would play so well.  Anyway, my best wishes to England.

What a turnaround by England in this match. They beat India by 100 runs while in the last match they lost the match by 10 wickets.  This leaves us to the final match which is to be played between these two countries at 17 July in Manchester.
This was one of the worst collapse by the Indian batting team. How strange that Virat Kohli made 16 runs and he was the top scorer in top 4 Indian batsmen.
Yes, Virat Kohli of India is playing a very bad game. Now I think his game is much worse than before. I don't think Virat Kohli will play such a bad game.  If Virat Kohli plays such a game, he will be in a very bad situation.

The credit for the England victory goes to Reece Topley who took 6 wickets and gave only 24 runs in 9.5 overs. The rest of the bowlers also chipped in and collectively it was a good effort by them. I am also looking forward to the final match to be played on Sunday.

Which team do you think is the favorite to win this last match. I think it's difficult to decide before the match, the one who played better on the day will be the winner.
1955  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Threshold of Loss in Gambling on: July 15, 2022, 07:15:11 AM
My question is, can you remember a time when you reached your threshold of loss while gambling?

Of course, but sometimes I go aggressive and stay undisciplined because I like to chase my losses and the worst thing happened. Therefore, it's very important that we stay disciplined while gambling because the risk is high and the worst-case scenario is we might end up homeless because we become addicted to gambling.

In my initial gambling days, i never accepted my loses and always try to recover them by chasing my loses.  In these loss recovery chases, i used to lose a lot of money. The reason is that when you are chasing your loss, you are not playing normally, you are in control by your emotions and you can never win in gambling if you are not clam.
Later, i stop doing this and as soon as i lose money, i quit gambling and take the rest. We have to accept that we cannot win all games in gambling and losing is a part of  gambling.

There are just unexpected situations that happen where investors are forced to sell their Bitcoin for their personal use. Holding will be the best thing to do for now. As much as possible and as long as we could have more patience, it will be better to hold our Bitcoin so we'll make a profit when the market recovers or when the bull run approaches. It's the right season for buying and holding.

That's why it's been said many times that investment in bitcoin should be with the money which you do not need for daily usage. If you need to sell your bitcoins urgently for any need, it means that you have invested your day to day usage money in investments.

Two lopsided matches today - ENG vs IND and NZ vs IRE. India won by 10 wickets against England and New Zealand is on course for a massive win against Ireland. A little bit of wobble for New Zealand right now, after Henry Nicholls got out trying for an unwanted run. Overall, it was a bad day for the Europeans. And in case of Ireland, they are in bad position as far as the World Cup Super League is concerned. They needed at least one win from this series, and looks as if they will not get it. After this match they will just have 68 points from 20 matches.

Well, we all know that Ireland is the weakest team and they will lose against New Zealand. However, they still played well and scored 216 runs. New Zealand's chase is not good at all and they have lost 5 wickets with a score of 155 only. I would say that Ireland team has shown a very good performance regardless of the result.
In the other match, India crushed the England team and i would say it was one of the worst days in England cricket as they lost by 10 wickets.

Open-source is better than closed-source, but only if the product is popular enough and sparks enough interest for independent code review. Trezor falls in that category. An open-source and brand-new piece of software that no one cares about is definitely not more secure due to the fact of being open-source. If you don't have people looking at the code and understanding what it does, it can still be malicious.

Think about it like this:

Open-source is a battle between good and bad.
Imagine a group of honest community members reviewing open-source code, but also imagine a group of hackers looking to steal crypto? Can they both review the code? Yes.
The honest group finds a vulnerability that can be exploited. They communicate their findings to to the owners, the devs update the code, and everyone is safer. Good job. The hackers find a vulnerability that can be exploited. They don't tell anyone, but instead take advantage of it. They end up stealing $5 million in crypto before the devs and the honest members of the community discover how they did it to patch their code.

Imagine the same scenario with a piece of closed-source software. Can hackers and honest code researchers inspect the code for vulnerabilities? No, they can't. The story ends there! The closed-source code can be excellent and unbreakable, and it can also be vulnerable to various types of manipulation. We just don't know. Only a small group of team members know what the code does, hackers and honest contributors can only discover vulnerabilities by chance since there is no code to read and inspect.

Honestly, i was making the opinion that open source wallets are better than the closed source ones (by reading the comments ), but your post again makes me left in the middle of no man's land as its now difficult to choose between the open source and closed source wallets Cool

Seeing it from your point of view and assuming the whole world is a hacker, in closed source wallets only the developers of that wallet can do any damage but with open source wallets, the whole world can search for the loophole and can take advantage of it Huh

It is 496 for 7. Dinesh Chandimal is still at the crease with 151 runs. Sri Lanka will collect more than 550. As long as Chandimal is at the crease, Sri Lanka's innings will be longer. Already to take the lead of 133 runs. If Sri Lanka is able to take a 200-run lead, it will be a good collection for them. I wouldn’t be surprised if Australia lost the match. Because the performance of the Australian players in this series is not good.

Dinesh Chandimal not out on 153 while lead is now of 135, just two wickets left. If Dinesh Chandimal can take lead to 200 then it will be a real plus for Srilanka bowlers. Only Dinesh Chandimal is the recognised batsmen left so nothing can  be said about final total of Srilanka.
Chandimal have crossed 200 runs and he is on the crease with Rajitha.  Sri Lanka have reached 551 runs losing 9 wickets in 180 overs. Probably Sri Lanka seems to score 600 runs, and there is no chance of declare in my opinion. Somehow this match is going to end as a draw.

It's a pity for Srilanka that they batted so well against the mighty Australians but the match will end in a draw. Scoring 554 runs is a big achievement for a weak team like Srilanka. Dinesh Chandimal remained not out at 206. He could not get support at other end else we would have seen him breaking some of the records.
After their poor batting performance in the 1st test match, Srilanka showed a lot of progress and commitment in the current match.
