2081  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When the fun stops on: September 18, 2023, 05:35:09 PM
For people like you and me, gambling could be fun to some extent, beyond that mind always looks for some profit. This is the real expectation, and when we look for money we're at the risk. Because, we start to spend beyond our ability. Fun stops when we consider gambling as a way to make money.

For us, gambling is fun as long as we are making money out of it. How many times we have seen that we go to a physical casino or sit in front of our system, to play at an online casino and we are so much enthusiastic and hopeful to gamble. As long as we are winning the games we feel happy but as soon as we start to lose the games, our mood changes instantly.

We cannot remain happy because we lose money in gambling. Money is important for middle class people like us and we cannot afford to lose money. So for us, it is actually the money which keeps us happy in gambling.

Casino rating sites are often faked like loaded dice. Casinos manipulate these sites to score higher. Additional warning: restrictions and licences. Does the casino operate under a reputable jurisdiction? No crowd or big wins can replace such validation.
Very true. I keep seeing so many gambling site review threads within this forum who promote various sites with their own ulterior motives ignoring the fact that they are liable for leading some gamblers to scam sites.

Proper research by checking gambling site ANN threads in this forum is necessary in order to check their legitimacy.

Even if those gambling review sites do not lead us to the scam sites, they definitely promote their referral links and therefore the gambling sites that offer the most reward for referrals, those reviewing site will first promote those sites so people register on them with the site owners link and he gets the referral commission.

In short, gamblers need to make it a habit to read the content on the site carefully, whether it is the announcement at the gambling sites or people's reviews on the review sites.

Kuwait are playing with some pressure but they are still in a good position so they are not under too much pressure to win the match. Kuwait have played 11 overs so far and lost 4 wickets they still need 73 runs in 9 overs to win the match. It will be a bit difficult to collect but it can be possible And Kuwait will have to play very carefully these 9 overs to win the match. Kuwait's performance has been looking good at times and questionable at times. So I am confused whether Kuwait can win the match

It was a close contest and Qatar manage to win the match by just 1 run. Kuwait still at number 2 place despite this loss while Qatar is not at number 3 spot. I doubt whether there is single native player playing in this tournament. Almost all players are from south Asia and still its Gulf crikcet championship.

It does not matter if the players playing for these small countries are native or from the other Asian region but I think that all those people have the nationality of that particular country. Is it?

We see the South African team including the white players and not only the black ones. The teams like Ireland and Scotland have Asian players, not only English players. So there is nothing wrong if we see Asian cricketing nationals playing for the national teams of the Gulf region. They have the contract and agreement to play for those countries.
2084  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Importance of Gambling to the society on: September 18, 2023, 04:46:57 PM
Can you consider something positive if you can clearly see that everyone who gets involved in it loses money? I don't think so, and that's why I don't blame society if they don't see gambling as a positive thing. I know that there are responsible gamblers as well, and there are those who gamble just for fun and don't spend a lot of money on it, but still, the percentage of people who are responsible and take gambling as an entertainment is too low compared to those who gamble to earn money.

Gambling is considered a fun activity and I never heard if anyone suggest that gambling is essential for society. In fact, the people who do not gamble think that gambling brings more bad effects as compared to the good effects to people's lives. Only the gamblers themselves think that
gambling is an important thing in life.


However, I don't see why someone would think of a job differently when the person is simply doing their job and earning a salary. Even if they are serving cards at a table or giving out cash or chips to people, they are doing it so that they can earn a livelihood and I don't see anything bad in that.

These are the workers present in the physical casino and they do the job in the gambling casinos. They do not gamble and therefore we cannot call them gamblers. They are the ones doing the job there and they get paid for it.
2085  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Navigating the World of Online Gambling on: September 18, 2023, 04:30:11 PM
What I meant exactly was that scammers may try to contact you calming that they are from that casino and requires you to give them some personal details of which is a scam attempt. You have to be aware of these.

I once had an experience like that at an online casino (not a crypto casino). Coincidentally, I also have an account there. they sent me a message to the cellphone number that I used to register at the casino. they told me about the bonuses that I could claim and they could help me make the claim. I immediately opened an account and there was no notification regarding the previously discussed bonus. I went to support and they warned me not to give account details to anyone.

This kind of fraud may be a classic we have seen, but for those who are experienced, of course, they will not be fooled. but hopefully, new people in the world of gambling will never be fooled by that kind of method.

Since the popularity of the online casino has increased, the scammers have also become active. The reason is that it is easy to scam the gamblers virtually as compare to scamming them physically.

Also the scammers will come up with different ideas, some of those look so real that it is sometime impossible to distinguish between the truth and lie. As you got excited and logged in to check your bonus, other people will also do the same and even if the  scammer can scam 5 our of 100 people, still they will be happy getting free money.
2086  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: September 18, 2023, 03:59:45 PM
I have sad news and I have good news for Pakistan. The sad news is as you know that Naseem Shah is injured that’s why they don’t play some matches in the Asia Cup. Naseem Shah had a shoulder injury so they cannot play in the World Cup 2023 and the doctor of Naseem Shah said that most probably Naseem Shah needs to leave cricket for 1 year at least.

The good news is that M. Amir is coming to play in the World Cup 2023. M. Amir is replacing to Nassem Shah.


I would consider it only as bad news for the Pakistan team. Just before the start of the world cup, they lost of one their major fast bowler., Naseem Shah as he is injured.

Although we know about Muhammad Amir as he is also a good bowler however i do not know if he is in the form or not. I haven't seen him play for the Pakistan team for a long time. Yes, he has got the pace and he is sort of a furious bowler like Shoaib Akhtar, but I do not know if he could be successful on the pitches of India.
2087  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling should be play with care on: September 18, 2023, 03:31:22 PM
Gamblers become so addicted that they lose control because they do not have the strength to understand what is happening to them. A gambling addict prioritizes gambling over personal family or social responsibilities there is an impossible and uncontrollable demand for this game. In gambling rather than financial gain the excitement of the game acts as the main catalyst behind its addiction. So it can be seen that a person addicted to gambling spends most of the day with the thought of gambling and is ready to increase the amount of the bet they have no regrets.

You ask a person who is addicted to gambling to play with care and responsibility, will he listen? Never. Because he will tell you instead that he is already playing with care and he knows how to manage his games (when in reality he does not).

Anyways some gamblers who are not yet addicted, get the hard lesson when they play aggressively without money management and they lose their money. Those who learn from their mistake will always take calculated risks in gambling because they know that this is not a place to make easy money.
2088  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Experience for new and old gambler? on: September 18, 2023, 02:40:06 PM
Do you think it is the same experience for a gambler who has practically experienced and been involved in gambling evolution since gambling was on the street side with personal belongings or money, to spaces and buildings for gambling with money, to gambling with money online, and now to gambling with cryptocurrency online with a gambler who has experienced a few or just one of the forms of gambling? whose addiction will be harder to break?

It all depends and it doesn't have a direct answer. Originally, that gambler who was a street one gambling offline and later metamorphose into online and gambling with cryptocurrency is suppose to have more experience than he who just joined newly with cryptocurrency but the thing is in gambling, overtaking is also allowed. This means that the zeal of the old gambler might drop especially if he is not making profit from the online cryptocurrency gambling. He might have been having negative experience after he signed up with the casino while the new player is having good time with winning. So it is difficult to give clear answer because the circumstances may vary.

Well, since every gambler will have a different experience, we really can't say if the old gambler had a good experience or a bad experience.
The advantage which the experienced gambler has is the fact that he or she will know that gambling is not an easy way to make money and you can lose money too in the process.

However, a new gambler coming directly in the cryptocurrency online gambling would have many high hopes of making money and he would ususlly do not think of the losses that he may have to face.
2089  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Wagering requirements for withdraw on: September 17, 2023, 05:46:39 PM
The requirements to make a withdrawal in any casino, as I am a player, the first thing I do is check whether or not it is convenient for me to be in that casino, as I am a fan of things in my casino, or in the casino that I prefer. things are different, for example I'm in duelbits and I had no problem with KYC or anything like that, because when I made my withdrawal things went well, what some users complained about was that the KYCs were not approved quickly, now things are not like that, the requirements are more difficult in part is that, the system and the conditions that vary because each player has their abilities and is capable of doing what they feel most able to achieve.


Every gambling site would have different wagering requirements and also different KYC requirements. So it is always recommended that we read the terms and conditions at the casino sites to know exactly the requirements and then we decide whether we will deposit at the casino or not.

Also, if the casino is offering bonuses on deposits or any special promotions for new account creation, those will have special wagering requirements too. Reading the details on the gambling sites of different promotions is essential if we want to avoid the surprises later at the time of withdrawal.

This thread will now be renamed to the ICC World Cup 2023 discussion thread. Thanks again to everyone who contributed to this discussion. I am not locking it, you can continue with your discussion for the upcoming event.

At first, i was surprised to see that we had the ICC world cup discussion thread with so many pages and i didn't know about it but later was more surprised to see that it was the Asia Cup thread renamed to the World Cup.

I just wonder why you renamed this thread to the ICC World Cup 2023 when it was the Asia Cup discussion thread.

Maybe you could have locked this thread and created a new one for the said event.
2091  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: DCA'ing isnt a bad strategy on: September 17, 2023, 03:54:16 PM
A clever Bitcoin collector will combine the two options....

You do not simply buy on a regular basis, for the sake of buying.... you rather accumulate some Fiat savings and then buy bitcoins when the price are low. Why should you follow a DCA strategy that will force you to buy at regular intervals during high prices, when you can hoard your savings and buy at low prices.

The combined strategy will increase your profits, because you are buying bitcoins at low prices. (Also, sell bitcoins at high prices and then wait for it to dip to buy more coins)  Wink
Saving fiat and buying on drawdowns sounds very smart, and this strategy will be available to almost everyone. But when you advise selling Bitcoin at a high price and trying to buy it at a low price, then I think this may be a very difficult task for most on this forum. Since looking for levels at which it is worth selling and buying back is a complex trader’s work that requires good knowledge of technical analysis, and can ultimately lead to an inexperienced user losing more than he can gain.


Speaking frankly, DCA'ing might sound like the best idea to either a trader or an investor but the required technicality isn't for newbies in the space and often times newbies aren't that patient to get the rudiments of the space, which advises them on how best to navigate to make more profit than loses.

If one needs to DCA at any level, then a proper knowledge of technical analysis is required to keep one away from loses. How do you tell which is the best point to buy and /or sell when you can not read it off charts.

I must say that if you do not do the DCA, then either you will end up buying Bitcoin high with all your money or maybe end up not taking any position in BTC as you will keep on waiting for more low prices.

I think in a volatile currency like Bitcoin, the dollar cost average is the best way to take your entries.  There is nothing best if you know and pre-plan at which prices you will take how much entry and you need to be clear about it. This way,  on every significant price dump you will be happy to accumulate and not panic like others.
2092  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket Asia Cup 2023! Which team will WIN? on: September 17, 2023, 03:36:32 PM
I don't understand one thing whether in this match India played with Srilanka or Srilanka played with India. How can a team that defeated the likes of Pakistan and Bangladesh to reach the final get bowled out by just 50 runs to India? It was beyond our imagination that the final match of the Asia Cup would be so bad. India were definitely favorites in the final match but we never imagined that they would beat Sri Lanka so badly. India and Pakistan were expected to play the final match but that expectation did not materialize as Sri Lanka, on the other hand, played the final against India. There is nothing else to write about this match. I just want to forget the final match of this Asia Cup tournament. 

Kudos to both teams for finishing this match in a very quick time.

Yes, it's hard to believe that we had a final with such a low-scoring one-sided match. I wonder if this match held the record for the lowest total ODI final with the lowest score?

If you are an Indian fan, you would not like to forget this match but will be proud of the Indian team performances. However if you are a Sri Lankan fan, then for sure, you will like to forget it as soon as possible.
2093  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: September 17, 2023, 01:27:50 PM
This is easily one of the most one-sided and shorter finals that I am witnessing currently. Siraj is gobbling up the Lankans like they are nothing. Insane comeback by the RCB quickie.

Expected more from the Lankans. Congratulations(In Advance) India on winning the Asia Cup once again!

India won the Asia Cup by 10 wickets. Though it is good for the Indian team but i think the spectators who have spent money only to watch the final would be disappointed to see a match like this. A match where only a total of almost 20 overs were bowled, and only 50 runs were scored by both team, you can understand the disappointment of those who bought the tickets to see this final.

No one predicted that the Srilankan team would collapse so badly in the finals. A day, that the whole of Sri lankan nation would not like to remember at all.

Such a defeat at home ground in front of jam packed stadium, Sad, isn't ?
2094  Economy / Gambling / Re: what are the best crypto casinos! on: September 17, 2023, 12:53:01 PM
Also gamblingbro is much credible casino review site compared to trustpilot ehich we all know that can be manipulated. https://gamblingbro.com/ The owner of this is fellow member.

In order to know which casino is trusted and what casino is offering, I usually prefer the bitcointalk ANN thread of the casino as compared to any casino review site or Trust pilot.

Other than bitcointalk, I will also prefer gamblingbro, because he asked people to give reviews about gambling sites some time back,
Write a short crypto casino feedback [Paying $5 directly to your BTC wallet] and therefore most reviews on his site are real ones and you can get a good idea about the casinos reviewed there.

It's an exciting battle, we are all want to see this battle. I hope the rain will not come and Sri Lanka win this Asia Cup. Smiley
If Sri Lanka is able to win the match then it will be one of the greatest underdog story if they are able to defeat a full strength Indian team and win the Asia cup. My bet is on India to win.

Well first things first, Srilanka has won the toss and elected to bat first. They have won toss, so will they win the match?
Some people think that winning a toss in a final and putting runs on the board will have a significant impact on the match. We are yet to see this theory in this match.

The stadium is full and the crowd is supporting Srilanka. 35000 is the capacity at Colombo stadium. Srilanka team will be nervous at the start of the game. Both teams will try to lead from the front and will try to put the other team down right from the start.
2096  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Mistake that prevented your big win. on: September 17, 2023, 07:42:56 AM

Because it is not easy for people to stop gambling if they are greedy for the winnings they get. If he has good control then when he wins of course he will feel satisfied and if he is going to play he will not use his money excessively, because he feels that winning is not an easy thing if he gets it again and according to him it is an easy thing. not sure if he played he would win. so he will lose and lose the money he bet.

If the gambler get into gambling after he see his friend or relative big win in the gambling.Then he won’t get away from the gambling until he get into such win.So he will keep try with all the money,which he get as free money from the monthly expenses.The game which he choose for the target win is the more important one,The gambler will keep continue the game and build their own strategy at the certain interval of time.The strategy will speed up him for the easy win of their target.If the strategy works,he will win many times,if strategy failed.He will loss again and again of their bet.

If one person is making money in gambling, the other person can't do the same. Since gambling is the game of luck, you cannot replicate the luck of person person to another.

People do not realize that if a gambler makes money at one time, he also loses money at other times. Why do people only see one side of the picture ? Or it is also at the gambler's end as they only tell about their wins to their family and friends and very seldom discuss about their losses.
2097  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: September 17, 2023, 06:29:07 AM
This year's Asia Cup 2023 will end with the final between India and Sri Lanka on September 17. With a lot of desire and excitement, Sri Lanka is facing the favorite India in the Asia Cup this time. Although the betting odds of various betting sites suggest that India is much ahead of Sri Lanka but I have seen a lot of drama in this Asia Cup due to rain so if it doesn't rain then today's final will be very exciting. Both the teams have enough spinners so it is not possible to say in advance which team will perform better.

There are almost 3 hours left in this final match and I am eagerly waiting for this battle. I am not sure what is the current weather would be in Colombo as I do not see any information on the Cricket channels about it now. I guess they will start the broadcast near the start of the match,

I checked the weather from Google and found that it is mostly cloudy in Colombo right now. The temperature is 30c and the Humidity is 72%.
I hope it doesn't rain today and we can see the full 50 overs exciting final today.

Hoping for an thriller final on this Sunday  Smiley
2098  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Big capital, small risk or small capital big risk - which is best approach? on: September 16, 2023, 05:59:24 PM
Different people with different approach to gambling. Some prefer committing huge capital to high probability small odds while others prefer using small capital to target big wins. There are many reasons for each of these approaches.

While those that put huge capital win more often, their losses are usually painful. On the other hand, those that commit small capital to make huge wins rare win but when they do, they win big; their losses too are less painful. There are other advantages and disadvantages for both approaches but for the sake of this discussion, let's know which approach you think is better and why?
gambling is almost similar to business, don't expect that you will get big profits if you only spend a small amount of capital, but it is important to remember that never use gambling capital that exceeds the money you currently have, it's just a trap in your mind if you think you will get more money in your gambling activities (Gambling is not designed to make someone rich overnight, gambling is designed for entertainment that uses money)
However, there are quite a lot of lottery jackpot winners who spend small capital but win very big, their luck is usually only once in a lifetime.


Still i will prefer to risk my small capital by taking big risk, and see where my luck takes me to a win or a loss ?

Even if you invest big capital in a game / bet, you can still lose it even if the chances of that bet losing is less or close to nil. That is how sometimes the underdog teams win, an upset happens and its washes the accounts of thousands of gamblers who have taken the bet on those matches with low odds but with high capital.
2099  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: September 16, 2023, 04:34:44 PM
Yeah. Sri Lanka has the home ground advantage, but I doubt they will be able to defeat a full strength Indian team. They could win if the Indians mess up royally, but there is a small chance of something like that happening.

Let's get straight to the odds to see who will win the tomorrow's final match. Of course by looking at the odds we can at least get the idea as to who is favorite.

I know India will be the favorite but still we will look at the odds.  Cool



You bet on India and will get only 1.28 odds, You bet on Srilanka and you will get huge 3.45 odds. Whom you are going to bet?
2100  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are successful gamblers seen as addicts? on: September 16, 2023, 02:25:50 PM
A successful gamblers maybe we can say that they are  addict cause we all know that they will career Thier gambling cause they don't win if they don't care gambling or let say they don't win once they are quiting in gambling and maybe Thier perspective is that they want to persure Thier goals which is being a successful gamblers that's why they didn't stop  betting.
So far I have never met a gambler who was truly successful, if there was one they might be called an addict because it is impossible for them to get money quickly, perhaps they take a long times to bet and dare to bet large amounts so they can wins bets with maximum result, and usually people's like that have strategi and patterns that can make them wins.

Also, no one will call "successful gamblers" as addicted.  The term addicted is usually used in a bad sense like if a person is involved in some activity and he or she has a bad result because of access to it, then we call it addicted. If anyone is making money, then for sure, no one will criticize that person as everyone loves to make money.

On the other hand, gamblers who play gambling aggressively would never be a winner in the long run, so usually, gambling addicts are not successful in the first place.
