I don't get what it is with idolizing crypto figures and patronizing their business. You can look up to these people but certainly don't let it affect the way you perceive their business. Binance as a CEX seem to be okay on the surface, and it's natural that it will be receiving a lot of notices from different countries and jurisdictions because there are still some regulations that need to be ironed out with the service and the country it is on.

But yeah, the general rule still stands in the crypto industry: not your keys, not your coins. So it's always best to just leave what you need to go around in the exchanges and take what you don't really want to sell or trade. Better be safe than sorry, after all.

I remember reading it for the first time in 2014. It was one of the threads that can be found on the top thread of Bitcoin Discussion. Lot of commenters on that thread were thankful for being at the right place at the right time, whereas there are some other people that also knew they made the right decision because they understood what bitcoin is for and believed that it will be worth something in the future. Fast forward 12 years, that 100 bitcoins would be worth at least $2.6 million by now, and I do hope that guy kept all of his coins.

I for one, thought that Trump was the most dangerous option back then just because Biden looked like he's the reserved, calculating, and more sensible option since he knew politics that well. Turns out that I was wrong for the most part, and Trump's sly and dry remarks are way better than Biden not really knowing what to say at the right place and at the right time. A lot of questionable decisions made by the Democrats during Biden's administration made me switch sides for the 'lesser evil,' which is Trump. Although the MAGA poster boy seemed to be erratic and a lot more unpredictable, his policies made a lot of countries - even Russia and China - respect the US somewhat as he's form on what he says and does not back down against threats compared to Biden.

A huge possibility for Trump to win the next elections. Even if they put Harris on the slate, I don't think her popularity and what he did on the current administration is enough to win votes.

There's a lot of match fixing that happen on lower leagues, but even in the big leagues it's still happening thought just not as obvious and evident. I haven't heard that much match fixing in Europe especially in football though, as I believe it's one of the strictest sport in there in terms of these things but I'm not too sure. I only heard about that incident you're referring to lately but that happened almost two decades ago so I know that it's not much of a problem there.

Twitter's business model was fucked since Elon bought it. It became his personal playpen - a testbed for some of his ridiculous ideas, if you may. He's trying to use the platform to gauge the public's pulse and perception to his viewpoints. It's an expensive platform for his ideas, but it certainly is important when he's looking for the public's reaction and opinion on some of the things that he's saying on important matters or any business-related tweets that he's looking to get out there.

I'm following a local tipster that posts only Korean baseball on his picks. So far his winrate is 90%, and when I looked at the teams he usually picks, it's not always the favorites who's winning but sometimes the underdogs depending on who they are up against. There are league favorites that does consistently well against a lot of teams but does badly when it comes to one or two particular teams that aren't as good as the average teams. I personally don't understand how he does it, but to him it's just another day in the office and another $$$ to collect.

I'm yet to get a consistent win on my Korean baseball picks, though I'm already winning quite a lot just by tailing him.

Me winning $90k from $4k seems like I have run out of luck to use and I wouldn't dare push it even further. I'll get $10k from it and try to bet it on some other things and keep the rest to maybe create a business that will generate an income passively. That's the smartest move as you pointed out, although in the heat of the moment (and when people are feeling really lucky), they can't think straight and their eyes are on the prize mainly, disregarding all reason and common sense.

This one too. People are overlooking the fact that there are VPNs that are prone to a lot of security attacks that can easily steal their information without them knowing. Paid VPN services that are trusted by the industry might be safer, but you'll never know when will the attacks come. Not saying that VPNs are insecure, it's just that it's another layer of you putting your trust to another service that they will not screw things up.

Then again, the decision should rest upon the ToS of the gambling platform that you will be playing on. If they allow VPN, go for it; if not, better be safe than sorry.

Pretty sure they got that idea through ‘engineering breakthroughs’

I’m hoping that Ferrari get off the high horse and at least ‘get an inspiration’ to the leaders of the current season and get better placements. It’s really boring to know that no one comes close to RBR albeit the Mercedes team doing some improvements on the car’s body. It’s not Verstappen’s driving that’s causing them to get wons after wins. It’s more of the car and him placing comfortably during the start of the race.

Never expected these two to defeat G2 and FaZe honestly, even though we know how good the new bloods are. Sunpayus and nertz really took ENCE to the next level, while JDC and frozen tried their best to salvage a lot of rounds for MOUZ in the two maps. I kinda thought that MOUZ would have gotten Mirage given how smooth their first half is, but unfortunately Sunpayus' movements around the map and maden's pick-offs were just too much when they switched sides.

Anyway, GGs for both of the teams. MOUZ only needs to be together for some more tournaments and some more time, but they already went into IEM and managed to beat the huge teams and play at the finals.

You can see and feel that Leclerc is really trying to make things work, though unfortunately his machine isn't really up to par with the rest of the big names and he's always getting dnf or just a bad beat in general. I think the frustration is creeping up to him because Sainz managed to finish at a respectable placing behind Perez. The Mercedes are also slowly creeping back up with a close rivalry with the Aston Martins, and I think that's the only interesting match up right now since we now know Red Bull will take the trophy anyway.

I would rather bet on a hotdog eating championship on bizarre events rather than this sex championship that they are trying to put forth. There's really no incentive for us onlookers anyway apart from getting aroused and rubbing one out. If we decided to bet on it, there isn't a guarantee that the event will be rigged at all, so better be safe than sorry and avoid this.

If this event exist before in nitrogensports which lists some obscure competitions, I'm pretty sure people will talk about it but not dare put even a single penny on it.

I knew it. ENCE is gonna do something ridiculous to go to the grand finals. They have good form very recently and sunpayus is doing some great plays left, right, and center with his crazy entries and some clutches here and there. Currently watching them play against MOUZ and their entries, trades, and map movement is just on another level. They comfortably take mid and B every single time and MOUZ can't do anything even with the heroics of JDC.

It looks like ENCE got the first map in the map. Even the likes of G2 and FaZe succumbed to these guys that are considered tier 2 teams not long ago.

Believe it or not, that may be happening even until now. It's a douche move but it's something that a casino can do if they are trying to be extra stingy about the situation. Not every casino does this, but those who do are sure to have the name of their platform plastered across the forum for doing such shitty service against the users of their platform.

If you know that there are things that you are doing that are basically against the casinos rule, better stay away from it for a while before you deposit again because you'll never know.

Who the hell would bet on an event that is entirely subjective? Who are the judges, Johnny Sins and Lana Rhoades? IMO this shouldn't even be thought as something that can be bet on since this isn't a sport to begin with. This is just an orgy with extra steps so nothing really worth making it as a sport. If I want to waste my money on porn anyway I might just go to the real thing and hire some sex workers to work for me. Nothing in here is worth gambling at all, and since it's entirely subjective, I doubt the idea of it being on a gambling platform will not catch on.

The 4th one I do not agree with. I know some people who lie about their gambling activities because they don't want to get in trouble either due to their nature of work or to their family. Some are literally just trying to hide their gambling activities even though they play for fun on a handful of occasions or just to kill time and that doesn't mean that they are addicted. The rest of the list, well, it's highly possible that these guys who possess these behavior will turn out as addicts as it point towards one common theme: lack of self-control.

I finish off debts that ask for high interest per month, and move on to the next that has lower ones and eventually pay them off. Or better yet, before I even take out a loan, I'll check what the interest could look like every month before I sign the deal. That's why it also pays to have a good credit relationship with your bank since they are handing out loans that are quite favorable to their users that have a good credit standing with them. Right now I'm debt-free, though I had a year-long stint of having debts left and right after being hospitalized, and paying the ones with high interest are the ones I prioritized. After that, it's just smooth sailing from there.

Snowball method works if you have all the time in the world and is okay with paying some interests over time on some of the debts that has a fixed due date, but it's not very economical and might bite you in the ass in time.

At this point they should start an event in bookies entitled “Will Verstappen’s car have issues?” especially when their qualifying went smooth and there isn’t much of a weather disturbance on race day. There’s just very few things that can take down Verstappen in a race. Heck, even if there’s some miscommunication in his team, they can just order Perez to pave the way and Max to claim the win.

It’s what they wanted initially, and it’s what they pursued so it’s entirely their fault. While it may be sad that it has to go to this way ultimately, they wanted it. I’m sure they know that everything will pile up especially if they don’t have any self-control in them. Gambling in itself isn’t destructive, but one’s absence of self-control leads to a lot of damage in gambling. Rest in peace for this bro, though I know that he knew better and just opted to choose overindulging.

Or if you are a true human being, you would crave for genuine connection. With money comes power, albeit secondhand, since you can pay people with power to do what you need and want to do. Heck, you can even buy power if you have the money - just look at politicians on poverty-stricken land. They continue to prosper in wealth and in power just because they have the money and the machinery to do what they want. Then again, not everyone with money knows what to do with it, hence some are doing dumb decisions just because.
