1981  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are You Tax Efficient With Your Gambling Habbits? on: September 25, 2023, 02:04:13 PM
The loss was our loss, and we did not pay the taxes. And even if we win, we might just pay winnings tax to the casino. But using a credit card to gamble is not recommended because it is as if we are using borrowed money and have to pay it back on time. Otherwise, we will experience problems, and we may have to give something to the credit card company to pay off the money.

But to pay taxes on our gambling, it seems it depends on where we live because some countries will not ask for tax money on gambling, but countries will ask us to pay for other things. And it will depend on the policies of each country.
That sounds better than if we will pay some taxes in each bets that we placed no matter if they are a win or a loss. But if we win, we are going to pay a little bigger for the tax again. When it comes to payment methods to play gambling, indeed that using a credit card as a way to place bets are not good idea because apart from your stated reason, it can also tempt us to borrow more money and become move divested once we also lose them.

Maybe it's true that tax obligations in gambling can depend on the country that we are living because I'm not asked yet about it. But it can also depend on the game because lottery winners here are being charged by a tax and the amount is huge.

It's better if we do not have to pay taxes at all; it would be fair for gamblers that way since casinos are the ones making money. The government can seem too greedy when they tax everything. You see, if a casino wins, they will need to file income tax, and if we win, we are going to file income tax, so the government makes money both ways.

The government usually does not care, if you are making money or the casino is making money. They are only concerned with the taxes.
This means that if you are making a significant amount in gambling, you will have to pay the taxes. The casino is making money and they will separately pay the taxes.

However, the gamblers who are doing online gambling using crypto, sometimes do not declare anything to the government and the government also cannot figure out if they are making money through gambling, so they save their tax but still, it is risky as if they got caught could face legal consequences.

Nobody has abandoned this thread.
But it really looks like you have abandoned this thread as the way you are bumping this now. Your posting quality and replies were better in the past. You are bumping this thread without any valuable content now. Post some big wins screenshot and make promotional announcements occasionally to make the thread alive. BTW, there is no promotion at Punt.com. When the 'challenges' will be available?

If gamblers do not ask anything here or they have nothing to discuss about this casino, then the OP have no option but to bump the thread. However, he should think about why other gambling ANN threads are always active and there is no activity on this thread.

One reason which comes to my mind is that fewer people are playing on this platform and hence they do not discuss anything here. Also, Punt needs to have some sort of marketing campaign / Signature campaign in order to attract the gamblers. The competition between the gambling sites is quite high and hence they need to have some budget for marketing purposes.
1983  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you manage your money on gambling sites. on: September 24, 2023, 01:46:10 PM
Most of the time it's laziness.  People do the same thing in keeping theor crypto on trading exchanges its the same thing
  The beauty of crypto is that you can send it to a wallet where only you control it with no one else with access (to include banks).  It's a shame people don't use crypto how it was intended to be used.

If managing money means where to keep our crypto, then for sure, gambling sites or trading sites are not the ones where we should store our crypto. We can move our crypto to these sites to gamble or trade but as soon as we get the profit, its time to move them back to our wallets.

I usually tell my friends that once you go to the shop and buy something, you bring that thing home. So when we get some profits/coins from gambling sites, why we are happy to keep them there?

In case of any mishap/hack/scam, all that money stored in the centralized exchanges is gone and they are not our money as long as they are on their platform.

Another example of Batriarchy domination over Bowlsheviks.  Grin

The way Indians are going today, a mammoth total is definitely on the cards. Australia would be very lucky if they could restrict India under 350. If by any chance India gets out under 300 then shame on them as this pitch looks like a belter. Aussie batter will enjoy their batting as well.

After losing Ruturaj Gaikwad at 8 runs, there is no turn back by the Indians. They have scored 173 runs with only 1 wicket down and still counting.

Australia is considered as one of the best cricket teams and if they are being punished the way right now (looking helpless), What will be the fate of other teams playing in the World Cup against India?  Who can stop India from winning this World Cup ?
1985  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you cheat in gambling? on: September 24, 2023, 09:15:12 AM
It's up to the gambler if how will he decide on the opportunity that is given in front of him, considering that he found a loophole or weakness to the system. But we certainly cannot really say that every gambler will just turn a blind eye and just do the game fair and square because every gambler is different and there will be always that others that will take advantage of every hint just to get strong chances that will in turn make money for them. In the long run, it won't give them benefits but who cares, for them, it's a now or never world.

First of all, there is hardly any loophole to be found in the gambling games, because if there is a loophole and even if you are honest and do not exploit it, there may be many who won't let go of the free money and they will try to make as much money as possible.

Now coming to the fact, that why gamblers will try to cheat and not be honest? Well, the answer is simple, most of the gambling sites also exploit the gamblers by giving them high and tough wagering requirements. They don't show pity on gamblers no matter how much a gambler loses, so when the gambler gets his chance, why does he care for the casino:Smiley

This schedule does not contain the warm up matches for the World Cup. The World Cup will kick off with the warm up match between Bangladesh and Sri Lanka on 29th September. There will be a total of 10 warm up matches. Each team will play two matches each before the start of the WC.

I do not know if the sports betting sites will allow the betting on the warm up matches too ?

In today's match, India women's team defeated Bangladesh and qualified for the final match

In the other Semi final, the Pakistan women team scored only 79 runs. This was a poor display of batting by the Pakistan girls. Shawaal Zulfiqar made 16 runs and that was the highest score for the Pakistan team. Udeshika Prabodhani took 3 wickets and Kavisha Dilhari took 2 wickets, the bowlers destroyed their bating completely.

Srilanka women should easily win this semi final unless we see another batting collapse which I don't think will happen. They had already scored 24 runs and lost the wicket of their captain Chamari Athapaththu.
1988  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: September 24, 2023, 05:34:17 AM
but they way Ireland played is quit impressive and have ability to bounce back in last match.

I really like the way they tried to chase this big score of 334 runs and were short only by 48 runs. Being the underdog team, this batting performance was too good for me. Although none of the players scored a 50 in this match from Ireland but the good thing is that everyone contributed to reach close to 300 runs. Players who came down the innings like George Dockrell , Barry McCarthy and Craig Young , all contributed good 40+ runs and helped their team reach close to the target given by the England team.

Remember the first ODI was abandoned by rain, this one England won. I hope to see another thrilling ODI between the two teams on 26 September at Bristol.

A few good knocks from the tailenders and lower order doesn't take away the fact that Irish top and middle order is out of form. I don't even remember when was the last time their star batsmen like Andy Balbirnie and Paul Stirling scored runs. Even the younger players such as Harry Tector and Curtis Campher are also out of form. Lorcan Tucker was performing well in the CPL, but he failed during yesterday's match. All Ireland got was a decent total in the end, thanks to Barry McCarthy, Craig Young and Josh Little towards the end. 


Anyways, the lower and the middle order did play well. It was not that they hit one or two boundaries and got out. They really stayed on the crease and made some useful runs in the context of the game, otherwise 286 runs by the Irish team were not possible.



Today, i am waiting for the 2nd ODI between India and Australia. The first ODI won by India have given bookmakers more confidence in them and this time the odds show that bookmakers have more confidence In India team.



Remember, in the first ODI the odds were almost equal between the two teams.
Believe me or not, even the bookies aren't sure who will win today's match. The odds are pretty equal for both teams.

I have been watching the score for this series on cricinfo but could not find these matches live coverage on any TV Channel.

Can you tell on which TV channel you are viewing this series?

I have been watching the Caribbean Premier League on Fancode App, which is covering the matches live in India. Apart from Fancode, Star Sports is telecasting the matches live on TV within India.


I usually have access to all the sports channels as i use IPTV to watch the matches. So which channel of Star Sports is telecasting this series (Star Sports 1, 2, 3, 4 or Star Sports Hindi) ?

Bangladesh bowled out for 52 after 17.5 overs. This is going to be another cakewalk for India. Nigar Sultana, with her 12 was the only batter to score in double digits. The Indian bowlers were exceptional. Pooja Vastrakar got 4 wickets, while Titas Sadhu was exceptional in her opening spell. In around 3 hours from now, the second semi-final will be played between Pakistan and Sri Lanka.

If Pakistan could win the 2nd Sermi-Final, then we will have another India Pakistan final. No matter who win from the 2nd semi final, i think that India women team is too strong for all the other teams in the series. Also, remember that three of the four quarterfinals were washed out and only Srilanka won the Quarterfinal againist thailand women.

Its potentially true in every country, gambling is often vital revenue to the government.

Are you sure that all the gambling casinos would pay taxes to the government? I highly doubt that.

Yeah in countries, where the casinos are being operated physically, they will have to declare their profits and give taxes but what about those online virtual casinos which may be hosted on remote servers and no one knows from where they are operated and no one could take action against those casinos.

The regulations with online casinos are still very relaxed and many casinos operate without giving any shares to the government agencies.

Anyone following the Caribbean Premier League? Final match will be played tomorrow, between Trinbago Knight Riders and Guyana Amazon Warriors. TKR have heavyweights such as Nicholas Pooran, Andre Russell, Sunil Narine and Martin Guptill playing for them. Guyana is mostly dependent on Dwaine Pretorius for bowling and Shai Hope for batting. Both the champions and runners up from last year's tournament failed to qualify for the final this time (Jamaica Tallawahs and Barbados Royals respectively).

I have been watching the score for this series on cricinfo but could not find these matches live coverage on any TV Channel.

Can you tell on which TV channel you are viewing this series?



Today we have the two semi finals for the Asian Games Women's Cricket Competition. The first one is already in progress where Bangladesh are struggling with 7 wickets down and the score is only 34 runs. India will surely win this Semi-final.
The other semi-final between Pakistan Women and Srilankan Women will be played later today.
1992  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Warning] Don't share your casino account! on: September 24, 2023, 01:34:36 AM
Thanks for sharing the information. This would help many gamblers stay on the safer side. When it comes to money we never think about the after effects. We just agree and go for it without a second thought. This will be a learning and surely if someone receive any such pm regarding profit sharing one can stay out of it. Once we get into money laundering or any such problems, it is really hard and we can't prove that it doesn't belong to us or we haven't involved in it.

One thing which make us accept such deal is greediness. Of course when we accept the deal, it is either we get money either in profit sharing form or a fixed amount and the offer is so lucrative that it is hard to ignore. Another human sociology is that when accepting such deal our heart says that there would not bad associated with the deal and everything will fair and we may earn some easy bucks.

However, the sad realty is what the OP experienced. We need to be careful indeed and not indulge ourselves in undue problems.

Oman is a good team and has the ability to chase down the 164 runs target and win the trophy of Gulf T20 Championship.

I thought that the United Arab Emirates was a better team as compared to the Oman. In the pool stage too, the United Arab Emirates topped with 8 points. But in this match, Oman remain dominant in the match. First, they did not let the UAE team run away with a lot of first innings runs.
Secondly, when they come to chase, they remain calm and do not panic anywhere in the innings. Though they lost 5 wickets but made sure that the required run rate never exceeded 8 or beyond. Anything under 8 runs per over is achieved if you have wickets in hand.

Oman finished the game as the WINNER and they really outplayed the UAE team today.
1995  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: {ODI World Cup 2023 Prediction Pool🏆} & Discussion Thread on: September 23, 2023, 05:38:00 PM
So, we have already 3 participants here who sent their entry fee. I'm expecting 5-7 more people entries in this pool. Otherwise, this prediction pool isn't going to be enjoyable.

With just a little over 11 days left in the World Cup, people need to hurry up in order to join the pool. If we add the OP and Royse too, it would make a total of 5 participants in the pool. I will see later how much participants actually paid the fee and then decide whether to join or not. Don't know if it would be fun with only 5-6 participants  Huh


BTW, as Little Mouse has suggested above. The discussion thread needs to be opened for those participants only who will send the entry fee. A self-moderated thread will also help to get rid of the spam here.

I think the best option will be to close this thread on the first day of the World Cup before the start of the match, as then all the entries, would have been done and open up a new thread with self mod so only the participants of the pool can interact without outside interference.
1996  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Importance of Gambling to the society on: September 23, 2023, 05:15:32 PM
Here in our country, our government has supported gambling, which is also under the government agency. Each casino has a charity program that is carried out. From what I see, literally speaking, it also helps people in need who can't afford medicines, those who don't have enough to pay for the hospital, and so on.

Which means the gambling casino also really helps here because of the charity program they have. If you look at it, if there are no gamblers, the charity program will not be able to realize their desire to help the needy who approach the government agency here.

So in reality, the gambling casino will take money from rich people (as only the people with money can gamble and all the money lost goes to the casino), and they distribute it to the poor people through charity. This is one way of helping people but again the casino will not charity all the money, they will keep the major profits with them.

this is a good topic for discussion. in my country, many sites that are related to gambling are very closely related to charity; they buy ambulances and also help hospitals, this is a good deed. It is good when companies have a profit and are ready to share it at the level of government assistance.

To be honest, this is the first time I am hearing of gambling casinos involved in charity work. Previously it was a perception that gambling casinos mostly focus on their own earnings and do not care about society and all that gambling addictions.
1997  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: September 23, 2023, 04:59:07 PM
In the match of Bahrain vs United Arab Emirates team, Bahrain team batted first and set a target of 150 runs in 20 overs. The runs scored by Bahrain team do not seem to be the right runs for them to win.  If the bowlers can perform well, maybe UAE batsmen will be under some pressure. I am betting in support of UAE team, so I want UAE to win this match.

In reply to Bahrain 150 runs, UAE were able to score 147 runs in there 20 overs. This is UAE fist defeat in this tournament and they are still at number 1 position on the points table. The 3 runs victory today has helped Bahrain to move to number 3rd position on points table. KSA is at 6th position as they have lost all the games.
In the 14th match, Bahrain show up an excellent match against the United Arab Emirates. They set a target of 150 runs to UAE but unfortunately UAE did not win the match by just a few runs. Bahrain team batted for 150 runs in 20 overs and UAE scored 147 runs for the loss of 7 wickets for some of that score. They lost by just 3 runs. At the moment, Bahrain team has won 3 matches and collected a total of 6 points to occupy the third place in the points table. UAE's Nilansh Keswani scored 8 from 13 balls as UAE lost the match by a narrow margin, adding some extra runs to his batting would have easily won the match.
UAE seems to be the strong team among the Gulf nation teams, and this time it had failed by a small margin getting close to the target. The last over of the match is interesting. UAE needs 11 runs to win and the players on the crease, Mohammed Faraazuddin and Akif Raja kept taking runs in singles and two and they were able to make 7 runs in the final over. Maybe a four could have leveled the match. Anyhow this is quite interesting and it is possible to see teams getting better in progress when more matches played.

Well, the big question is whether the United Arab Emirates will be able to win the final today. Will they beat Oman at Doha in the final today and will take the Gulf Cricket T20I Championship title?

They are batting first and are 65-2 in the 9th over.  A lot of hope from their captain Muhammad Waseem who is near his 50, playing at 42 in only 24 balls. Oman need to tighten things up else UAE could score a big total which may be difficult for Oman to chase batting 2nd.

In the previous game, UAE beaten Oman by 22 runs. So, their confidence will be high in this final too.

I just notice that Betfury is the only casino with native tokens that doesn't display the token exchange rate on the front page of their website. It's either they are ashame in the token value or they trying to sway the attention of investors to the current token price condition. Usually casino is putting the exchange rate and link on how to buy in the front page to help promote the tokens with their new players that doesn't use the native token.

The gamblers would not care much about the token price as they want to buy the token to gamble with it and their main purpose is to gamble and not to invest in that token.

And even if anyone wants to invest in that token, they should not be caring about the low price, The prices of all the altcoins are super low these days and this may be the best time to buy the BFG coins at the lowest price and take advantage when the price will rise. The bitcoin bull market and the altcoin season will surely come sooner than we expect.

Bangladesh has bowled out New Zealand for 254 in the second ODI. Now, Bangladesh needs 254 runs to win and take the lead in the series. It's a good fighting total for this Mirpur pitch. Credit goes to the 95-run partnership between Tom Blundell and Henry Nicholls. Chasing won't be easy as New Zealand's bowling line-up is strong. Bangladeshi batters need to be careful.

Again Bangladesh played better than expected. At one time, they were 131 for 3 wickets down only and it seems that if they batted well, they could reach a score of 300 runs but then the Bangladesh bowlers really bowled well and made them all out at 254 runs. The good is that all the Bangladesh bowlers took wickets while the most wickets come to Khaled Ahmed and Mahedi Hasan, both of them took three wickets each.

In chasing the target, Tamim Iqbal is looking good at 19 not out but he needs support from other end too, in order to chase this target, which is not big but at the same time not a small one too. They are 34 for 1 in the 7.4 overs. Still a long time in this match left to see who will come out as a winner in the match.
Ha ha ha ha Bangladesh playing better then expected lol. they already lost 5 wickets and score only 111 runs in 24.3 overs. It was not expected that Bangladesh would play so badly in their own stadium. It looks like Bangladesh will lose all wickets before crossing the target of 254 runs set by New Zealand. Not for the first time in today's match, Bangladesh always lose easy matches.  It's really funny. Bangladesh being a good cricket team, when they go down like this with New Zealand in their own stadium, it looks very bad.

No need to laugh, when i said that Bangladesh played better than expected, it was at that moment when they were able to restrict New Zealand to  250 odds runs.

Anyway, Bangladesh's batting failed miserably today and they were all out at 168 runs only. Opener Tamim Iqbal made 44 runs but no batsmen supported him and they kept losing wickets on the other side. Mahmudullah's 49 later in the innings was never going to be enough as i said there was no resistance in batting for anyone else.

Six wickets for Ish Sodhi and 35 runs for him, what a match he had today and was truly the player of the match.
2000  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Betting significant amount on: September 23, 2023, 03:36:07 PM
Many bettors bet more and think that it will magically increase their chances of winning. No matter what, gambling is still a game of luck. Betting bigger may bring short-term excitement, but inevitably leads to bigger losses and regret.

If you bet with big amount for short term excitement, it can become a life time regret if you lose that money. Better no try such experiments which may bring so big financial losses that may take months and years to recover and in some cases, you may never be able to recover those losses if your overall portfolio is small.

Gambling should remain a game, as you say. It should never become a lifeline or path to success. Those entering this high-risk field must act properly. There is a lot more to life than the deceptive belief of get rich quick.  Tongue Tongue

No matter you treat gambling as a fun game or a game to make money, always keep money management in mind so that you won't lose big. As long as your whole portfolio is intact, you will get fun plus money from gambling.
Gamblers are required to make a risk management plan and then stick to that plan.
