221  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: It’s unlikely that anyone besides you will be happy with your winnings. on: March 21, 2024, 02:17:38 PM
...
 it’s still better to hide your victories from others. I've seen many clear examples.
That was your opinion as I share my winnings with my close friends, family, and relatives but of course, that will depend on the amount. It was not being generous to others but just thinking about why we can't treat other people if we win. It depends on us and the circle of your friends, family relationships, etc.

Well, we can take that point that some of the people around us may not be happy about our winnings but it doesn't mean we have to get angry with them. Instead, we have to open our minds and think that not all people will appreciate the achievements we get, some will hate it. We can ignore them instead and enjoy those people who treated us well.
222  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the dip people!!! Could be last chance for prices this low on: March 20, 2024, 09:57:17 PM
Whether it is the last chance or not, still we need to buy with some faith. As an investor, we should think wisely and never get into such a thing when doubted, or else, this will be the reason for our regrets. We don't need to urge ourselves to buy this time if we are uncertain, there is another bear season after this.
But for the risk-takers, then I think we have to consider the current correction. We are not yet in the new ATH, therefore, we really have the chance to earn a profit. Of course, that was different from buying Bitcoin during the dip. For newcomers, must think deeply and keep the volatility in mind before deciding to invest.
223  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Airdrops are getting easier to get this year on: March 20, 2024, 09:19:05 PM
I said no and why? Unlike before where we joined an airdrop and just needed to register on their site but now, you need to complete some tasks before getting rewards and sometimes we need to stake them. There is no easy money now and aside from that, we don't have any assurance to get rewards after staking. I won't say this a waste of time but seems to be like that because most of them are just scams and useless projects. That is why only a few people have joined this kind of program due to the changing system of getting airdrops. Old forum members could really say a huge change happened in the market unlike before which airdrops were just easy money.
224  Economy / Gambling / Re: Sport Dictation Free trial !! on: March 20, 2024, 12:54:13 PM
We have our freedom to choose either to avail or not. Availing one might not be necessary if you are winning in sports betting, but if you are desperate enough to win because you had sorted all necessary stategies but it's still not working for you, then you might want to try this.

However, there's still a question on how legitimate the offer is, because claiming that they are profitable is easy than proving it, and if they can prove, they can do it anywhere even in this platform so it's not necessary anymore to join the telegram channel they organized.
When we are winning, we have money and it's not a problem anymore for us to join a premium group and the reason for doing is because they might know something that we don't know and that makes us to increase our winning percentage but for those who can't win anything on their own, maybe they don't try their best yet?

You know on doing an analysis, and others that can help them improve their chances. They better focus on it first and besides, they are still low in money due to much losses, although there are also free groups out there in which may also perform nicely but before anything else, investigating their legitimacy is the thing that we should do first.

But OP's offer does not involve a lot of analysis, rather than just a pure trust on their group that whatever they'll say are going to happen. The point is, it's called dictation because they are seeing the actual game that are delayed in live tv ( or we could use a delayed telecast), and you can take advantage on it.

Now, you just have to evaluate if you are willing to risk on that offer and hope you'll profit, but for sure in the long run as this trend gets more popular, bookies will be able to make an adjustment and this might not anymore work.
225  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Canelo Alvarez - Jaime Munguia May 4 Super Middleweight Championship on: March 20, 2024, 12:20:28 PM
And this is the kick off press conference in LA

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J9AOiXOqK_c

Everything looks relax, Munguia looks very young here as compare to Canelo, Lol. But we should really expect a war here, both are Mexicans. Canelo also explains why he chooses Munguia as he said that he won't be fighting another Mexican.

Canelo is still a huge favorite but for sure, Mexicans are going to be proud of this fight in their holiday.

Never seen a Mexican fighter that is boring in the ring, it seems like that's their reputation and they will live with it, so for sure we will  witness a firepower here. However, I just a bit disappointed with how Canelo choose his opponent, because he is already at the twilight of his career, so he should be seeking big fights against an opponent that could potentially give him a 50/50 chance, not this one that he is a heavy favorite to win, but then there's nothing we can do here so let's just watch and enjoy this upcoming fight.
226  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: New trader's must remember it. on: March 19, 2024, 09:53:32 PM
Indeed, all of it is worth remembering but unfortunately, most traders especially newcomers have seemed impossible it to work and this is because of the lack of emotional control. And this is one big factor that affects our trading journey and the most common reason why we fail. That is why we ain't see all traders who try had succeeded but instead, we see a lot (majority) had failed for some reason.

In trading, there are a lot of things to consider;
 - the way we responded on the current market situation
 - market approaches
 - mind control
 - fund management
227  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does pragmatic play bonus buy really worth it? on: March 19, 2024, 12:07:32 PM
I recently play this provider without the use of VPN on Stake.com that’s why I kinda become addicted on this provider. I frequently purchased bonus buy worth 20$ for a minimum bet but the usual profit I can get is just x2 of my buy bonus while I’m frequently lose my bonus buy.

I’m pondering why many user keep using Pragmatic Play especially the bonus buy feature while it’s expensive and the return is not that high considering the max win is very small compared to other provider like push gaming that offers much higher max win.

I admit that Pragmatic games is really cool to play due to graphics but winning wise, I don’t really like it since there’s no 0.1$ minimum bet.

If your goal is to have fun, then it's best for you. However, if you want to profit, then I would say this is not good for you as it has a house edge. I mean, even if the bonus are very attractive, you still lose. Bonus are to entice gamblers, but they don't give money, they know that once you play the edge is still on them, so at the end of the day you'll lose. Slots and other online gambling games with house edge will make you lose in the long run, that''s what house edge can do.
228  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2024 NBA Season on: March 19, 2024, 11:25:55 AM
This dunk was lit but I rather wanted to see this other one go in:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGd0memVURg

If this went in it would have been the dunk of the year. Anthony on Anthony violence.


Look how high he could jump... That could be a big poster if the dunk went in, unfortunately Davis was able to disrupt it and proved that he really is a good shot blocker, but to be able to make a successful dunk against a good shot blocker, that's already a big success. ANT has been so confident this season, not only his game has improve but he had some highlights as well, did this game had already joined the slam dunk competition?

Yeah, but we all know that Anthony Davis, if not going to block you, will have to alter your shots. And probably this is what happened year, a blow by by ANT but he still has to contend with AD at the top. And so AD as one of the top blockers in the league, was not afraid to go and try to block ANT's shot. It could have made as one of the best for the year and AD being posterized.
If he did that to Lebron, I believe he could be successful. AD is still not out of his prime, still young and could compete at a high level. One of the best big man in the NBA, posterizing him is almost impossible, unless it wasn't contested.


I don't think that he had joined the dunk contest, but fans wanted him to join because of his ridiculous dunk during game time. And he is really a high flyer, just weeks ago, he block Pacer's Nesmith shot and preserved their win. And in doing so, he hit the backboard, so it shows how ANT is a high flyer.

I think he should joined next all star as the last one has been boring, maybe with the hype he created now, he could bring the fans to be interested in watching the game. I also like Morant to joined, small but not afraid to posterize someone.
229  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Don't do this mistakes in trading on: March 18, 2024, 12:57:57 PM
No matter how many discussions talk about "common trading mistakes" this still won't change everyone. Because what I observed is the more we talk about this, the more newbies fall into committing mistakes. Honestly, it is difficult to change someone who already fell in love with money because even if they know greediness is wrong still it lives in their mind. And no matter how many times they suffer losses, that won't change their behavior. Maybe, just maybe, if they stay cool this time but can't ensure they remain cool for a long time.

We fail trading, not because of the lack of knowledge but it is due to our wrong actions and approaches.
230  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Making decisions while betting on: March 16, 2024, 03:15:01 PM
How do we regulate our emotions while betting and how important is it?
The first aspect of regulating your emotions is to stake responsibly. When you overstake, your emotions can get the better of you while playing games and you make wrong decisions.

You should also take the safe decisions at all times, especially with cashouts. Many players try to take as much money as they can and refuse to cashout even when they get a good deal. I recommend to take that deal as the outcomes are not guaranteed.

- Jay -
I think playing responsible is the best decision one can take while playing gambling, this will help in regulating lose in gambling.  What usually brings emotions in gambling is when people play excessively with over confidence then emotion comes in but one who plays responsible I don't think think it will develop any emotions.  Playing responsible helps people to play with amount that they can afford to lose and if eventually they lose, I don't think it will result to any emotions.  When you understand to play responsible I don't think you will have problems in gambling,  that is why the gambling companies always advice their customers to play responsible.
Whether they lose or win, gamblers always become too emotional all the time. Should we take it as a big problem? Well, that is right because this will lead to making wrong decisions that even worsen the situation, it is just like the creator of another problem. Yes, gambling responsibly will help a lot but to be honest, this won't be easy as we say. Let us say casinos are promoting this Gambling Responsibly, unfortunately, only a few gamblers got into such a thing while the majority remains irresponsible. But who benefits the most? That is the casino and any gambling platforms.
This can't be solve with that thing and the casino is never held liable for our actions, we do it by ourselves.
231  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Memecoins Making people more profitable than Alts on: March 16, 2024, 01:44:46 PM
Hypes are more profitable than the usual pump like it happen to meme coins and a few altcoins. But the reason why the majority are not investing in meme coins is because of the lack of substantial purpose of these projects. Most of them are still worthless and we can't blame other people for saying that probably because of their bad experiences with them. You should be thankful that they emerged in the Solana System and saved you or else, it is unlikely we see them in the current situation and even turn to another rugpull.

Well, you might be earning a lot from meme coins but the question is how they look after bull season. Because whether we like it or not, only projects that have a use case will stay long in the market. Take this opportunity while still there but don't overthink it will be long-term.
232  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Paper Betting- Would You Consider it if you Were to Start Sports betting Again on: March 16, 2024, 12:40:30 PM
Gambler with ambition to be successful in the long run would try this. Writing in paper and see the results for a span of time is good, once you are convince, you can start with real money. However, the most challenging part is on how to be discipline with risking money since it's quite different when you are just writing on paper without a bet than betting with real money. It's more like the actual vs theory thing, but in order for you to follow your strategy, what's in the theory (on paper), that should be followed and maybe adjustments will be made along the way, but never loss your discipline in managing your funds.
233  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022–23 PBA Commissioner's Cup on: March 16, 2024, 11:47:16 AM
That was out of expectation, LOL.. Who would thought Ginebra losing that big? I mean, no disrespect to Meralco but this team has been struggling early on, so we got caught up by surprise and we loss our bets as well.

By paper, yes that looks like unlikely but since this is PBA where people suspect there's some rigging of games happening, that has become a normal thing already, it could happen anytime and we should be ready to accept it and move on to the next game. Anyway, if we loss on that bet, we can bounce back today as we have 2 games lined up...

DYIP vs Blackwater at 3 pm.. this is like a 50-50 match up. I'll prefer to bet live to take advantage of the odds.

2nd game is Magnolia vs Converge, if I'm not mistaken, this is the first game of Magnolia this season, so coming from a long rest, they should dominate the winless converge (so far).

Big run by the DYIP to come back and win. Juami Tiongson's dagger gave his team a game winner where they won by 1 point only. There's a lot of comeback victory so far, good for bettors as this would provide a very attractive odds.

However, can it happen again in the current game, the last game?

59-73, Magnolia is up by 14 points, IIRC, the spread was around -15.5... so just a little push, they'll cover it.
234  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Am i bad to this friend if i refuse to loan him some money in bad economy on: March 16, 2024, 05:50:35 AM
snip~

What are your thoughts let learn together.

It is difficult to decline someone to ask for a loan especially if they are close to us as we could think that he/she will feel mad. But yes, sometimes we need to make a decision even that will hurt someone's feelings. We have not just looked at how they feel but also, consider our situation if we are in the position as can't just let it happen if we know that also compromises our investment plan. Explaining may help him/her understand our stance so at least will help them clearly understand why. But still expect them to think it is bad. Well, real friends will certainly understand and that is what we look forward to.
235  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why are people getting scared to Trade on: March 16, 2024, 03:43:15 AM
We don't get s ared trading but we need to be wise and wait for the right time to trade according to the indication for trading.
There are many indications we can get to trade in the market if we know what we are doing and how to do it.
Trading could be fun for people that have what it takes to trade and make money for themselves without depending on external factors or speculations before we can trade in the market.
Carelessness makes no one succeed but failure. That is why we should think first before trading and we won't be like those people who try even if they don't have knowledge. And the thing is that trading is not an easy way of making money. Therefore, if we feel doubtful, it is better not to try because that only ends up losing.
Perhaps, we don't need to be scared but what we need is proper preparation - knowledge and capital.
All the people who are scared are those who are not ready yet and are not risk-takers. In fact, we're not forced to do that, sometime we need assurance as well.
236  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Should Online Casinos Publish Their Bankroll? Your Thoughts? on: March 15, 2024, 09:49:35 PM
Perhaps, it was not necessary to do that because gamblers will be encouraged to gamble on that particular platform after seeing their bankroll is huge but because it can be trusted. Although we consider capital as our criteria but what we look the most if is their reputation as this will give us confidence to have a fair gambling experience. Therefore, there is no need for the casino to show their bankroll to the public but what they need is to show that they can be trusted. Aside from that this is also for security reasons that they need to secure first rather than gaining the interest of the gamblers.
237  Economy / Economics / Re: Saving don't make wealth on: March 15, 2024, 07:41:59 PM
Sincerely the concept of savings has made some persons poor,but many won't realize the fact that saving don't make the difference but investing does.
 Am not saying saving isn't good, but my point is saving doesn't make one wealthy, the worst advice we recieve is  'save for tomorrow' but only few lay emphasis on the need to 'invest for tomorrow'.
So I would greatly say we invest some of our profits from bitcoin in to other stuff, than just holding it or using it for pleasure. The rare truth is how we believe bitcoin can change the game, so other systems are developing so we shouldn't be blindfolded.
Invest because savings doesn't increase or builds, investing is what gives you the life you want.
   Let discuss this guys..
  No matter how many bitcoin you hold you can still misuse the money, so we should understand the concept of Richness and Wealth.
 
Well, holding Bitcoin never made us rich until the time we converted it to fiat money. Rich people never save money but rather make it circulated and keep on rolling. In fact, that is how money works and if we want to become rich, we also never stop thinking about how to grow our money, not how to save them because value will depreciate due to inflation.

People are holding their Bitcoin not because they are saving but because they are waiting for the ATH and sell them. In this volatile market, it is somewhat important that we need to learn how to hold if we want to earn huge profit.
238  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022–23 PBA Commissioner's Cup on: March 15, 2024, 05:29:27 PM

He was well defended, Meralco didn't allow him to get hot. 2-10 shooting, he got the lowest percentage in the team, so it's really a bad night for him.

Aside from that, the biggest issue was actually the Turnovers of Ginebra. They made 19 here while Meralco only has 6. Ginebra are not a high TO team, they are careful with handling the ball as they move the ball well with less dribbling, but in this game they mess up, so a loss is just not surprising at all. They had a bad game, let's just accept that way and Meralco had a good game. Though it was a dominant performance by Meralco but it's just a one point victory and Meralco have to proved by being consistent, especially Maliksi.
239  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A Man bet his life savings on 1 spin of Roulette on: March 15, 2024, 04:34:43 PM
I am sure that is not his life savings because no one would ever do that. If he ever loses, what will happen to his life? Even if he has a second plan if he loses that bet, it is still hard for him to recover since all of his life savings are gone because of one bet. Maybe it is his only gambling budget; no one would risk putting all of his savings on one bet unless you are a crazy person.

Looking at the context of the video, it was a reality show, so maybe there is a chance that is part of the "script" where he would double all of his money. But if not, good for him; he has some balls of steel for doing that. I hope that he did not gamble again after that win.

We never know though but anything we can see online might not be real, so it's good that you have doubts on this one as it will not influence you to follow what he did, actually twice since there was an old and new video. Personally, I think it's just for a promotion or just a show as no one in with the right mind who risk his life savings that he saved for his future (whatever his plans) to gambling that in just a blink of an eye it could be gone forever.
240  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: JP Morgan says BTC price could drop after 2024 halving on: March 14, 2024, 09:41:47 PM
JP doesn't hold the future of Bitcoin and he has nothing other than speculating. But can't say he is absolutely wrong but the possibility is not close to such a thing as I still believe that the market is not totally changing, still history repeats itself, and still see bullish after halving the opposite from an expert JP Morgan views.

Anyway, whatever happens in the coming days we have no choice but to accept it. Can't still change the fact that the market is unpredictable and can't argue who is right or wrong but possible all of us went wrong. It is not a big deal for me for JP Morgan to say that as he is not even the one who controls the market.
