201  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does it looks responsible as woman telling husband you gamble? on: January 18, 2024, 12:56:41 PM
All the OP's points mentioned are correct, and if all the points are actually done well there is no problem.
However, the problem with the points mentioned by the OP is that there are no points of important obligations that the wife must carry out in taking care of the household, husband, children and other important needs. And if these points are implemented along with the points mentioned by OP, then overall it will be safe. And I'm just afraid that everything won't go well, or maybe there are some wifely obligations that have been neglected.
And I personally would forbid my wife from gambling, and I have no problem with her gambling responsibly, having fun and so on. And I'm worried that my wife will neglect some of her work or obligations and also be a bad example for the children.
It's not just about obligations or responsibilities not being fulfilled or taken care of, but it's about the trust that is being broken. When you are in a relationship, especially if it's a marriage, you would expect your partner to share everything with you, and by everything I mean every single thing that they do or happens or whatever else that one can think of, and if one day, all of a sudden, you come to know that she has been secretly doing something without telling you, how would that feel? Ask yourself.

Most of the time, we hide things from others because we think those things are not for them to know as they will either get angry, not allow us, or because what we are doing isn't ethical. But if there is something so casual, like gambling for fun, as OP said she doesn't have intentions to get richness from it, so I don't see any point why she had to hide it from him in the first place.
202  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Any advice for invest my first 600$ in altcoins? on: January 18, 2024, 11:30:21 AM
Hi just new to here. I want to know what are the good altcoins that can be invest and forget until 2026. I'm currently thinking to spend around 600$ for altcoins. Right now I'm holding BNB & ETH only as altcoins. Don't say buy BTC cuz already have nice amount since 2010.

Is it good to invest in HOOk, SUI , ARB or ID altcoins? Since they are new just thought to give a try. Thank you
Seriously?you have been holding Bitcoin since 2010 but 13 years later still don't know what
to invest aside from binance and Ethereum?
Where are you in those past 12 years when this forum also started?
Sad for you now knowing what to invest and still asking questions but has shitcoins in mind?
Maybe focus to those coins because I believe that you already knew the answer here.
Maybe he thinks before that BTC is only the coin that he need because he thinks it was the best crypto. And then maybe later on he changed his mind and start to consider more or other altcoins and tokens as well. Maybe it's a bit regretful because if only he did it earlier, maybe he have tripled or more his profits.

It was an advantage for him as an early discoverer of cryptos because many alts and tokens in the past are still legit. But sadly, later on, the situation have changed a lot. Many of them in case they will pump are only short-lived. So the key is to not HODL for too long and be active on knowing their updates and market movements.

Which the next club that Mourinho will join? Manchester United or Chelsea? Grin
I only found out today that Mourinho was sacked. In the news I read, he even left the training ground in tears. Indeed, Mourinho did not have many achievements with Roma, he only gave 1 UEFA Conference League trophy and managed to take Roma to the European Cup Final. There is news if Man United wants him, but he also does not have a big achievement with Man United. Maybe this time Mourinho is no longer a coach with the nickname The Specialist One but The Sacked One because he is fired more often than giving trophies to the club.
Now it's nearly more than two days Roma sacked Mourinho and have new coach Dee Rosie with immediate effect because they were not happy with the club performance into Serie A, so now things are taking change which is good hopefully they will achieve their target in coming weeks now what about Mourinho as he is having few good commitments in coming weeks.

But, where he wants to go it's not clear because media is saying Manchester United and Newcastle United both are interested but nothing is official with few reports are clearly saying he is looking for any job in Saudi League as this is also good for him but is he going to join this we have to wait for the official announcement about this all which will be announced soon.

I have not been following up with Union Berlin league matches after they were eliminated from the champions league in the group stage. Their performance in both competitions were so poor that you can’t so each much about it. It is good to see that they’re now improving after signing the new coach. It wouldn’t have made sense seeing a team like Union Berlin going to relegation after their excellent performance last season. They are not on number fourteen on the standings with four wins, two draws and ten lose. They need to pick up now and fight for the battle ahead if not, they will be relegated this season as they keep dangling in that relegation zone.
Without any doubt his is one of the biggest disappointment for the fans of Union Berlin as they witness last impressive year from them, and they were able to qualify for the Champions League but now suddenly they are at the 15th spot with most chances they can go down and having chance of relegation as well because their performance is not improving their quality is also having huge decline with now things are going more problematic for them if they are not going to improve their squad and quality for the second half of this season.

Now they are going to face Mainz which is also in deep trouble and have 16th spot both are on same level performance which are making things worst and next match is against Bayern Munich which is currently at the top and things will be not favourable for them.
205  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: January 18, 2024, 03:02:31 AM
Barcelona this season is completely different. They are no longer on the same level. I think this season even they won't be able to beat Madrid. Madrid will win La Liga this season because Girona is a great club but they do not yet have the qualifications to win the title this season. I am not underestimating Girona but we have to admit that with the players Girona currently has I think they will find it difficult to maintain the consistency of their game.
It's clear that Barcelona this season is really bad, their game is a mess without any cohesion at all, so it's no wonder Barcelona won't beat Real Madrid, even against Girona they can't.

So, this season, Barcelona had to give up the La Liga title to Real Madrid. It seems that they cannot compete to retain the La Liga title this season. They can only maintain their top four rankings, which is already grateful. Because the problems faced by Barcelona this season are very complete, starting from financial, internal disharmony between very influential in the next matches and will even affect the UCL league against Napoli in the round of 16.
There is no doubt now things are already gone from bad to worse for them because their confidence level is also suffered, and they need to regroup themselves which is not easy for them in current situation players injuries and out of form is also having bad impact with finances are also not ideal which are not allowing to them for having new signings which can increase their quality in coming weeks their worst defeat against Real Madrid in Super Final cup is also going to have deep impact on their rest of this season.

Even I have strong felt they can overcome against Napoli in Round of 16 match in Champions League because they are also suffering, and their situation is deeper than Barcelona, so this advantage can give them some relief but how they will overcome from their financial situation has never been clear.

I have heard news such as PSG have made a new contract offer to Kylian Mbappe. It is said to be worth around 100 million euros a year.  Shocked

This is a really attracting sum of money for sure. But money isn't problem for other rich teams as well. So Real Madrid can easily offer the same conditions to Mbappe as well. Maybe they already have who knows.  Grin  But I expect Mbappe to make his decision at the end of the season. Staying at PSG is also an option maybe but I hope he doesn't prefer that option. I don't believe it is good for his future at all.  Sad
In every transfer window we have too many rumours and reports about many few players with currently Mbappé is hot about his contract and future few days back I also read his mother which is also his manager announces if any club will offer around 100 Million Euro he will play for him, and today we have some news with now PSG is also offering him about contract so as things are going we can expect another extension for the Kylian Mbappé here at PSG.

Currently as things are going we need to understand Real Madrid is not interested in Kylian Mbappé, so things like this are circulating around about his future and most chances he will stay here with any acceptable offer can bring change but no other club can afford him with his required salary and other luxuries.
207  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: January 17, 2024, 04:05:41 PM
Lyon's previous winning streak disappeared after they lost in the away match against Le Havre. But this defeat cannot be fully justified because playing with 10 people was certainly very difficult for Lyon. O'Brien was the first player to leave the field after receiving a red card from the referee in the first half. It was clear that this was a very detrimental match for Lyon, especially since their moment of revival had to be ruined by this unequal match.

Le Havre was certainly very lucky after Lyon couldn't play with a complete squad and they didn't waste it at all and managed to score 3 goals against Lyon. Even though the results could already be seen, Lyon suffered another loss after their second player Caleta received a red card and had to be sent off by the referee in the final minute. Now Lyon has lost two important defenders in their squad and I doubt they will be able to win their next match considering that these two defensive line players have been absent for several matches.
Lyon lost this match against Le Havre but still things are looking much better after having the worst start of their season, and now they are going to have another challenging match against Rennes which is doing good even they are also having troubling time but with currently mostly French clubs are lacking of quality and consistency we can expect good performance from these both sides in this coming game Le Havre which is newly promoted side but their performance and quality allowing them to stay into middle of the league table already having good time as they beat Nice few weeks back and now win against Lyon give them good confident.

There is no doubt with the absence of these defenders they can suffer which will create more problems for them in coming matches while they are trying hard to jump out of the relegation zone and staying into middle of the league table.
208  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you take time to read the terms and conditions of casinos before registering? on: January 17, 2024, 01:47:02 PM
What could be the cause of too many individuals not being able to read long texts and manuals?

That is easy to explain. The reason we arent able or refuse to read long texts are our mobile phones and social media. People used to read at home, in public transport, on the vacation and etc. Now people dont let go of the mobile. As soon as we get a free minutes, we take our mobiles and start scrolling or swiping. We are used to receiving small portion of information. If something is longer than a tweet or reels, we skip. We need more and more, new and new info. And there is a ToS, 5-20 pages with wall of text and no pictures. Of course nobody would read it.
That might have a lot to do with it, you are right. People in older times used to read a lot of books and newspapers and everything which is why they liked reading, but these days, people are more into visuals which means that they like watching pictures, videos, and other stuff that explain things in a visual instead of them having to read all the text themselves. This is why, if you ask someone to read a very long text, they don't feel like doing it because they easily get bored.

I always wonder why casinos and other platforms don't turn terms and conditions into a video where a person should be narrating and explaining all the terms and a user should just play the video and listen to what the person is explaining. However, casinos wouldn't do that because they have nothing to lose if users don't read the terms and conditions.

We know how Ronaldo plays in every league, he is always full of ambition so don't be surprised if Ronaldo can adapt quickly, one clear example is that he can always take a place in the top scorer list and this is the 4th time Ronaldo has won the golden boot from a different league, yeah Ronaldo hasn't got it yet in the Saudi Pro League but I'm sure he will and Ronaldo is also in the top 1 based on assists, currently Ronaldo is 3 goals ahead of Aleksandar Mitrović. By the way, Aleksandar Mitrović is also one of the players who adapted the fastest in the Saudi Pro League and this is his first season but he managed to attract attention.
I've not seen a player that have been consistent like Cristiano Ronaldo and Leo Messi in football history, both players have been top competition for major titles for years and also in their late 30s they're still doing wonders. My favorite is stated clear to be Ronaldo, he's a rare gem and different from the vast majority of European players who thinks they can't compete with him in every level of football he's been categorized. When Ronaldo move to Saudi Pro League, he changed the football system of Saudi Arabia because they grown to become very popular. Cristiano Ronaldo have been known for his incredible qualities as a top player, he's always aiming for the best qualities and have not given up in any phase of football.
In recent times, we have no player at the level of Cristiano Ronaldo and Leo Massi and this all has never been easy because they are doing their hard work for staying at this level and having performance like this without injuries and other troubles which are hurting mostly big players love to enjoy life and having no things like these two are doing.

Ronaldo's move to Saudi League was big gamble from organizers and now in first season with mostly on papers it looks like they are achieving their target but in reality many difficulties are coming and these needs to be sorted out if they want to have more foreign players in this league because conditions are not favourable with culture and many other problems are also hurting them if they are going to have settled then surely we will have this league at completely different level otherwise this all huge investment can go down badly.

Afghanistan and Ireland both teams have test status by ICC but they're not still played enough match in test cricket but they also got status and ICC given status 19 teams and ICC ranking nearly 100 teams in ODI format but how much team got qualify to play world cup and other big event. So status is doesn’t mean every team will play well and show good results.
Yeah, Afghanistan and Ireland got into test status in 2019 and both are having only 7 test matches in last four years with Afghanistan won 3 and lost 4 and Ireland was unable to win any which is clearly indicating how things are going in this format, so better thing is now they stop this all and bring more teams for the white-ball format which helps them for having more interesting cricket and which is also better for the entertainment purpose.

We are currently having 12 teams in test format and just 5 or 6 are able to have better things with all others are losing their quality and things are also not favourable for them in finances, so now it's time for bringing more teams into shorter formats instead of going into this which is not affordable to all.
211  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to manage gambling winnings on: January 16, 2024, 08:00:53 PM
You are doing everything a responsible gambler should do. A person earning more than $100k a year from sports betting is using sports betting in the right way. This shows that sports betting can always be profitable if you have knowledge and experience and if you properly manage your bets so that you don't lose constantly. I always suggest people venture into sports betting instead of wasting all their money on gambling games such as dice and slot machines.

I know it might not be a very large amount for someone living in the US, but $100k a year is a very big amount for people living in third-world or developing countries. However, I know that the amount of profit also depends on the bankroll one is using because you win $100 if you are betting with $100 on 2.0 odds but you win $1,000 if your bet is $1,000 with the same odds.

Too bad that 2 ex grandslam winners are already out but Murray should have called it a day about 2 years ago. It must be for the love of the sport that he keeps on trying as money is no real issue for him. To be honest, I did expect that Murray would have won this match but winning a grand slam is not possible for him anymore.
Now he is 36 years old with having good career behind him but sadly due to injury he was not able to achieve things which he deserves but still a good player with good spirit and sportsmanship in this game he was completely outclass by opponent just because of this he announces may be this is his last year in professional tennis which is good decision because after injury he has done good even not able to do anything good but still we can say he tries his best not for money but for his dedication for the game.

Wawrinka is also veteran he is also trying his best for the improvement but sadly now it's time for him to call up because things are going not favourable for him now.

Yeah, you are right every person has their own opinion and judgment about the teams but if looking at the statistics we found Australia the best team in the test format. Australia and India played Many matches and mostly Australia won the matches.
Today I saw a video on YouTube which was a few months ago but it's not a big deal because nothing gonna change that much that causes one team and the other down. In the video, I saw that Australia has a win rate of 47.50% while India has 30.15% which shows that Australia is better than India. There are many other things in the video here I am giving the link of the video so you can confirm it or any other person wants to check.
Test importance is declining because of too much T20 otherwise test is the proper cricket. Right now Australia is number 1 test team while India is number 2 in test format with little point difference. Australia are number one in test because they pay much attention to this format. There is BBL going on in Australia but there players including Warner were playing test series against Pakistan. While Pakistan main bowler Haris Rauf preferred playing BBL instead of Test series and result is 3-0 victory for Australia.
Test importance never been on decline because this is one of the best format even facing some problems due lack of quality and few other factors and I will blame ICC for this all they completely fail to bring anything positive and also just encouraging few big countries are never been idea for any sport we have too much discussion about this all, but we never ended with any positive note because in ICC we have peoples those are never been interested in development of this game, and they are doing just filling their deep pockets and this all happening because big 4 are controlling all things.

If ICC brings some good changes, and we will be able to bring all teams on one platform then surely many problems can solve, and we will be able to have enough funding for the many countries which will help for the development of this game but for this we need positive and professional mind-set which is not available currently in ICC.

If you're considering diving into this BTC arbitrage game for that sweet 20-25% annual gain, be on your toes and do some serious digging. If you're thinking of using trading bots, there are open-source ones out there, but give them a good shake-down before you let them loose with your hard-earned cash. Stick with brokers you can trust, but don't kid yourself – there's still a bunch of risks floating around, like the market going crazy and dealing with delays.

Keep your eyes glued to real-time data, mind those fees, and don't put all your eggs in one basket. Beef up your security game with two-factor authentication and don't slack on staying in the loop about the crypto scene. Start small, learn as you go, and maybe chat with some folks who've been in the business for some time to gain some experience and knowledge that can be useful.
215  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Step you have to take before venturing into the market on: January 15, 2024, 05:15:30 PM
The first step for a newbie when starting trading is to stay away from futures and leverage trading because it's too risky for a newbie to manage and they can easily get liquidated without getting any profit unless they are lucky otherwise. The second step is to start learning, as you mentioned because you can achieve anything if you don't know anything at all. A lot of people might think of it this way, but trading is not like gambling where you place a bet, and wait for the outcome and you might win it. If you want to be a profitable trader, learn about it first.

A lot of newbie investors get into cryptocurrency trading without getting enough knowledge because they think it's very easy to earn money in this market which isn't true. Earning money is not easy, it's as simple as that. If you have money and you want to make money with it, you will need to learn everything about the investment you are going to make with it.
216  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: NFTs in the Real World on: January 15, 2024, 03:42:53 PM
It depends on how the digital world embraces the technology and whether people will approve the usage of NFTs in different sectors of life. If we talk from a trading perspective which is buying and selling NFTs for a profit, I would say it has already failed in that area because we have seen hundreds of NFT projects not performing up to the expectations of people who bought them thinking they can sell them for a higher value but they dropped in value significantly. One example of that is the Cristiano Ronaldo NFT collection which caused its investors to sue the football celebrity for the failed NFT collection.

However, NFT can have use cases in various real-life sectors where it can be used as a way to store and exchange value as a form of digital collectibles such as schools, hospitals, offices, and many other places where NFTs can be used to provide certain accesses and stuff based on what NFTs different people own in their wallets.

The performances of the teams in this season's UEFA has made very difficult to predict the favourite team to win the competition but I also think that there are few clubs in the competition that should be seen as the favorites to win the competition.
Real Madrid, Manchester City and Bayern Munich has shown enough strength and consistency to be considered as the three teams in the competition that are strong enough to win the trophy.  Defending champions are the most predicted team to win the competition but I'll be banking in Real Madrid to win the European Cup for the fifteenth time
Predictions about Champions League are never been easy with things are going very interesting in coming days all are going to face the toughest challenges and nothing is clear who is going to have advantage for the jumping into last eight mostly peoples are talking about Manchester City, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich which is ok but ignoring Inter Milan is surely not ideal as they are also having enough potential to stay into hunt for the title and take control until last minute.

Their attack and defense is surely at his best, and they can give shock to any top team in Champions League even they are not considered as the top contender for the title Real Madrid and Manchester City are surely still in the best shape but still we have to wait for the next round before having any solid prediction.

Xavi Hernandez is not the problem of Barcelona, rather he's been careful with the club and have focused his attention 100% towards the club. Unfortunately, Barcelona are looking good in appearance specifically in matches this season, we have seen alot of things gone wrong in Camp Nou but none of them connects to the club. Let's rechannel our focused on the game between Real Madrid vs Barcelona, complex actions triggered. Halftime and we have 3-1 on the scoresheet. Real Madrid leading with stellar performance and I don't think Barcelona have good chances because they're weigh below the pattern.
The game today showed who the best team in Spain is, it was a strong win for Real Madrid 4-1. Barcelona are too young, many of the players are even under 23 years old, they have no good experience. Ronald Araujo even gets a red card today, embarrassing game for Barcelona and all the fans. In the 80th minute there was a good chance for the 5:1, a disastrous game for Barcelona and Xavi, they wont win the championship this year, thats what I think after todays game. Vinicius Junior increased his market value today with his three goals, that was sensational.
Now after this humiliating defeat in final of the Super Cup time for the Barcelona management sit and think about their future because their problems are going to be increase, and they have to settle before it's too late, and they lost their legacy like Napoli which is now having downtime with recovery is looking not easy so bringing new players is essential which needs good finances and debit is already above $1.3 Billion which mean they have to do something for having things move for the positive change.

Xavi is dedicated to club and doing his best but players quality and injuries are not allowing him to do things which are needed for the better results and this result is surely big slap on their face with they are playing as defending champions but have no enough quality to settle things.
219  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: January 14, 2024, 07:18:44 PM
The Barcelona vs Real Madrid match in the Spanish Super Cup final is expected to be a very exciting match. I have completed all preparations to watch the final match of these two arch rivals. Real Madrid lost 3-1 to Barcelona in last season's final. Consistency compared to last year, Barcelona is in crisis this year. This year, Real Madrid is spending this season with a lot of power and consistency. In tonight's Super Cup final, I plan to bet in favor of Real Madrid. Real Madrid is one of the most talked about teams this year. Real Madrid are more likely to win tonight's match. If you want you can support Real Madrid and bet for Real Madrid.
I was also expecting this match is going to be exciting as these both Spanish giants are going to face at KSU Stadium Riyadh and now just after ten minutes of the match we have well controlled by Real Madrid Vinícius Júnior which is coming out of the injury hit two times back of the net and give healthy lead to his team Real Madrid by 2–0 which is surely shocking for the fans because no one were expecting start like this.

El Clásico is mostly having good fierce start but today having start like this is surely more exciting for the Real Madrid fans because now they can take double enjoyment first win for the Real Madrid and second return of their start player Vinícius Júnior so now 15 minutes gone and Real Madrid having one hand on this Super Cup.
220  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does signing up with affiliate links gives these benefits? on: January 14, 2024, 05:38:15 PM
Casinos that offer extra perks and bonuses for new users when they sign up under a referral or affiliate link are actually adding an extra layer of promotion for their products and services because they know that new users would sign up more easily if they see that they are getting something like a bonus or maybe a few free spins. This strategy is a very useful marketing tactic that casino platforms use, maybe not all of them use it but some casinos offer such things.

And talking about casinos that don't allow their customers to withdraw their winnings if the amount is large, I believe that has nothing to do with affiliates or referrers because a legit and reputable casinos wouldn't do that in the first place and if a casino has evil intentions, they wouldn't care doing that even apart from this scenario.
