Ur clarification make sense. Well apart from say English too enta us unto say the lingua franca tin wey take so much of our mother tongue away, some sabi write pidgin but dem no just want to write wit am. Me even lik 2 even flow with pidgin, e dey sweet and away 2 code ourselves here. If we dey yarn english all d tim, anybody 4m oda board go dey follow us bumper 2 bumper & no all d tin wey dey sup here, e no too make sense. Although d issue start 4m top as we no get one unifying native language as we see for oda board. Except say pesin sabi french, german, u no fit jus enta dose board 2 no wetin dey sup dere except u wan translate.

It is not always that way you are seeing it. I believe if such happen, those gamblers who are already playing their land base are also likely to be those also signing up to the online with just very few more to it. But usually the patronage may not be widely different because someone betting on the land casino will not have much to bet online and vice versa.


You are right on it. There is a reason to choose a land based casino. The owner may not want to undergo the processes of online casino and if he comes up with the idea later, it means he has prepared to take up the challenge.

This is normal when you do a direct bet. Direct bet is usually full time (FT) and after that winning or loss is determined based on if you bet direct home win (1), away win (2) or draw (x). So @ Fivestar4everMVP, you had a 90 minutes bet expiration and not extending to penalties or lifting of trophy or tournament cup etc. That is what has happened.

For example if you had a draw bet (x) and the match at FT ends at 4/4 then you will win the bet irrespective of who won at extra time or penalties. When match extends into penalty, it is a different cattle of fish however, you can also bet such option because they are all in the varieties of option but you need to as well understand them. If you need some of the meanings of those options, I think there is no information that google can't provide.

Based on your income in a week, if you are using this amount mentioned to gamble I think it is on the high except if you are making appropriate profit from it to cover your losses because most gamblers make more losses than profit and to lose 20% weekly from your earnings is surely high. A gambler who wins often wins has no issue with how much invested in gambling but a perpetual loser has to watch on how much wasted in betting. There are people who have stopped gambling because of frequent losses. Yes, if it is not working for you it is better to quit like you said you did.

You fit talk about being your own boss, doing your own thing without another involvement but I hope that one you dey refer to crypto investment or trading but e no just sweet as you talk am. People dey lose shege from trading the crypto, so e no just balance with life. No where easy, if na about cryptocurrency investment generally, losses plenty pass gain except you dey talk on to wetin dey sup here but outside day one, bro forget, e no sweet like that.


Yes but no be only crypto, na the gains wey dey for smart phone and getting connected online. Na there e start, being online, you meet crypto, deriv, fx, freelancing etc and affiliate marketing if them no scam you 

I think one can be exposed to gambling without being an addict. If you are exposed to something it means that you are knowledgeable about that thing not necessarily that you are involved in the activity. By the way, you can play from time to time and you are exposed to it but not an addict to it. There are people who have also played gambling in the past and have stopped, they are exposed to it because they know all that happens in it but have taken the decision to stope, so they also are not addict.

I would rather run away after winning than continuing after winning  I believe this is the wish of many gamblers who are in a losing spray lol. I have known gamblers speaking like this from their losses that they want to recover some portion of losses. Except a gambler is a chronic addict and the type that wants to have gambling as a source of income, otherwise it is better to exit when the ovation is loudest and that could be when you hit that big jackpot.

Oh... This reminds me of the Athenian democracy where families, villages, communities and the entire people were consulted to take policy decisions and that is the essense of democracy but what has gone wrong in all countries because every one country had a little beginning where they did things in one fold and got happy with policies. Is the kind of democracy we see today, that which was practiced in time past, where inflation was little or known, when currencies were valuable to purchase as adequate products as needed. What has really gone wrong


Bitcoin used as world currency will not guarantee no inflation. This is because IMO, miners may increase fees overtime since fiat is out. I think if miners fee begin to increase then that can reduce the value of your bitcoin, despite bitcoin being deflationary but where fiat is totally taken out, the forces of demand and supply may start to occur. I can imagine miners or exchange increasing transaction fee between $30 to $150 for transfer of $1,000 worth of bitcoin.

It is understandable that both offline and online casino are not serving same purpose, most play online because of the privacy.

I understand this point probably because of the incidence of scam where online casino just disappear without trace, at least if they had offline casino then they wouldn't disappear like that into tin air without any trace. I think to play in more reputable casino is more trusted than new ones, casinos like stake have been there, tasted and trusted with personalities that identify with them.

I have noticed this myself sometimes when I play certain type of game for the first time, I win but after that it doesn't really happen like that subsequently. Some people have argued that it is like a welcome that casino do to attract you into playing more but I doubt that is the case. I believe it is just a coincidence that it happened and not like a manipulation. But really it is attractive to play more when your first game appears to be a win it gives you more courage to try another bet.

Gambling addiction is not only when you have won bet. I think if you have won, what happens is that you have more money at that time to play and you want to increase your staking power but the real addiction should be the reverse. If you have not won a game, you are most likely going to keep playing because you want to taste it and retrieve all your lost money, so if you keep losing then you are playing more, that leads to addiction. Someone who wins a game may run away than someone who has not won.

Me I go just go straight go blame government because na Dem spoil everything. Na them make people wey get bad agenda for mind before or people wey bad before turn worse. How person go finish school and nowhere to start from. Make Dem scrap NYSC and gather the money for the one year and give graduate wey finish school at least half of the graduate fit utilize the money and become entrepreneur. Instead of paying it month end and at the end it will waste for transportation. Government self dey do Yahoo yahoo because dem dey promise and fail. I no say yahoo no good but the government corruption too much. Money no dey reach where e suppose reach and things get worse, vices plenty wey guys dey do make dem survive, e no easy.

If we are expecting opposition political party to support the party who was able to rig themselves into government is going to be a waste of time. As far as politics is concern, election is win and win all. I don't think collaboration government work or coalition, it doesn't really work in governance because the other party has a different idea or idealogy they were coming with and so such fusion may further take the country back. Political party by primary understanding is formed to win election and form a government and that happens at agreed duration of tenure.

I accept that, greed can turn into a blessing. Sometimes we are persistent with what we believe in like if you try and keep trying because you see that light is at the end and at the end it may turn into good. Sometimes some gamblers are persistent in coming back to try after losing. I have witnessed much of this when a gambler losses in visual game and after losing much they still try the last game which turned out to be the remedy that brought them back to regain all the money lost earlier.

This place na im I want talk about and leave all those funny questions wey you dey ask. The thing dey funny, make dem reset the country afresh 

Anyway, my brother the country hard no be inflation. This one don pass inflation. The thing don dey unbearable but the challenge be say no way forward as I dey see the present administration. In fact NLC self no help matter, how you go begin strike one day when you don wait for government tire and the next day Dem say make you come make una talk again. The whole people wey dey involved for Nigerian governance na corrupt people. You remove subsidy wey average and poor people dey take still feel government, increase fees for schools,which one persin want talk.

I agree that government created crime for the reason of not providing enabling environment for job creation  I also agree to your point that government love crime and they will not take it out. The point therefore is whether jobs are created or not, gamblers will still be there, gambling places is mostly hideout for gamblers and government will always look for the bad boys for their nefarious activities. That buttress my earlier point that availability of jobs is not the solution to crime rate. There are guns everywhere, social ills and illegality is on the increase.

To buy over someone's falling business requires two things. One of it is that you need capital to refurbish the business because most likely it is lacking in management which is the reason for the sale. So you have to be ready to pump in money in a business that is failing if you are buying it. For example take twitter, to the best of my knowledge was not failing but Elon musk bought it, he turned it to his taste, employed new hands and all that requires money.

Another point is you need to be experienced in it or your money will help you employ the best heads who are experienced to rejuvenate the business back to the public. So if one does not have those two criteria, they may not be able to buy over failing business.

This is suppose to be the best way to gamble but unfortunately it doesn't happen that way because of the factor of money involved in it which touches down to our emotion. If the games are not involved with money which makes it a bet then the atmosphere will be different from what it is called. The fun aspect of gambling is difficult to achieve when you are betting on something .

Opportunity to gamble will not be seen as the reason that crime will reduce. Employment is what I know that is advocated to push down the rate of crime and not gambling. In fact most times gambling environment is where bad boys meet to plan next move. Crime rate is increasing generally because government has not provided enabling environment for self employment and employment opportunities. Those who gamble may not gamble if they had alternative.

We still have to protect ourselves from over risking our investment in bitcoin. There are people who borrow money to invest in bitcoin but within the time to repay the loan, bitcoin is yet to bull and that will put them under severe pressure. As  much we want to take risk of investment, we also need to take caution not to invest all we have and won't be able to take care of other needs. We need to balance out investment so that other aspect of our lives won't lack or become deficient.
