If you're looking for a casino, I recommend Crypto.Games primarily because of their low house edge and their regular promotions related to Dice etc. If you're looking for a sportsbook, I recommend Sportsbet.io due to their odds boosts, same game parlays etc. bitstarz
This is a bad recommendation considering the fact that it's a scam site with a bad reputation in this forum.

Just wanted to confirm that I received my prize money. Thanks @Royse and @JSRAW for hosting another cricket tournament successfully in this forum. I guess the next pool will be the IPL 2023 pool sometime next year.
Looking forward to that pool and other possible pools(ODI World Cup 2023 etc) in the future.

What a collosal mess. I find it strange that this stuff happened when the market was rallying recently after a decent amount of time. FTX screwed themselves and the crypto market along with them.
Personally, I never used FTX(Thankfully) since I usually use Binance and LBC. These incidents chase away investors and cast dark shadows on the entire crypto market sadly.
These incidents prove the fact that it's always better to store your crypto in reliable wallets when compared to storing them in exchanges.

congratulations Royse777 Haunebu Mahdirakib. Hard luck for the next 3 participants.
Haunebu Mahdirakib please drop your BTC add
Total Pot : 0.01066900
Royse777: 50% : 0.0053345 Haunebu : 30% : 0.0032007 Mahdirakib : 20% : 0.0021338
Thanks a lot for organising the pool as usual. Had fun! BTC addy: bc1q0ejhuqj39war6prl9xlyen5r3hcchh2npu95f0 I would have stayed in the second rank if I made the correct prediction for the final match. However, the 3rd rank isn't bad at all. It was my first participation in any prediction pool here in the forum, I have really enjoyed it with you all.
You did really well since it's your first time participating in these cricket pools. Had fun playing with you and the others. Keep a lookout for similar pools(IPL etc) which are hosted regularly in this forum.

^ Definitely right and one example gambling casino that doing it until now is Roobet even though they are already established casinos but they keep making ads, contests, and promotions that make gamblers will stay on their website. This is a very important strategy for marketing, keep active in doing such promotions to lure more gamblers, because based on my opinion, a gambler will stay just because of the promotions besides the satisfaction of the game. So it is the best p[arty of a gambling casino that continues having ads elsewhere.
I do agree with you about Roobet, but their mandatory KYC is an issue for me which is why I don't gamble there anymore. Sites like Crypto.Games are better in comparison in my opinion since KYC isn't mandatory and their promotions are very tempting. No mandatory KYC and epic promotions on a regular basis are what I usually look for in new/old gambling sites.

England did it thanks to Stokes who saved them once again! Pakistan gave them a tough fight, but their score was always too low. Congratulations Royse for winning the pool and I'm happy with being the runner-up. What's that supposed to mean? Teams like Sri Lanka, Windies, India, Pakistan and Australia also have ODI and T-20 WC trophies. Unless you are pointing toward winning the trophy with some loopholes like Boundary count in 50 overs WC Eng vs NZ or in this case due to rain.
I meant that England would hold both the 50 over and 20 over World Cups simultaneously which they achieved successfully.

Lol. I feel like you're high or something whenever you create these hilarious threads op. Whatever you state in your threads is common sense and make you look like a little kid who whines about various issues.
Coming to this topic, if you don't want to gamble and would like to focus on serious professional work, just do it. However, dreaming about playing like big-shots won't get you anywhere.
The only good thing about threads like these are the fact that they are quite entertaining overall.

They lost to small teams, but they made themselves strong at the right time. India and New Zealand took a strong lead and confirmed their semifinals position, but they weren't able to perform at the right time. Sharing shouldn't happen. It needs to be Pakistan/England.
England lost against Ireland while Pakistan lost against Zimbabwe and still ended up facing each other in the finals. Crazy stuff! If England wins or if the match gets washed out, they will be the first team in history to hold two different ICC World Cups(ODI and T-20) simultaneously which is freaking insane if you think about it.

More tempting promotions if you ask me. They are easily one of the best ways to retain old gamblers and attract new gamblers which is why I suggested this idea. Cliche strategy, but reliable nonetheless.
Personally, I tend to focus on casinos which offer the best promotions(FIAT and Crypto) for the best bang for my buck.

Exactly but if you put your money on the group favourites which most of the times will win all the group stage games then that would have been 3 games won already so another 3 along the way to the final. Aside from that, if we think of this promotions as an extra then its a pretty good deal because everyone loves betting outright on World Cup winner
These promotions are decent, but betting on favourites as you mentioned doesn't always work. For example, I never expected Brentford to actually defeat Manchester City who have been consistently winning recently. Betting outrights on the World Cup winner is even more difficult in comparison. Betting small amounts in these cases is the way to go if you ask me.

I chicken out early... when I do a multi bet and it goes down to the last 1 or 2 bets, because it leaves me with money to fight another day. It also depends on how much I put on the multi bet... if it is a high amount, I will cash out early.... but if it is a small amount.. I will risk it. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) There is an alternate solution available for this issue on some occasions which is taking advantage of promotions where you receive your profits even if 1 or 2 bets in your accumulator lose. Sports betting can be fun, if you manage the risk properly.... it is not like Slots ..where the RTP is set by the house and your destiny is locked in. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) True. However, you can win big money through slots too as long as luck sides with you in a big way.

Looks like Pakistan and England could end up sharing the trophy due to a looming rain threat which freaking sucks to be honest. I truly hope the final doesn't get washed out purely for entertainment purposes and for our pool. The Final will be Pakistan's threatening bowling vs England's batting (they guys have ridiculously serious depth in the batting department), should be a belter.
The only Pakistan bowler who was consistently threatening throughout this tournament was Shadab in my opinion while Buttler was the consistently threatening batsman from England. Am excited to watch these two duke it out in the final.

How many points can one score in the Finals? If I'm not wrong then it should be around 4 or 5 points with the margin points. Best of luck to the top 6 ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I guess you could have made it into the top 3 too, but you forgot to place a bet on one of the semis which I noticed. England and Pakistan had played 7 match T20 series before the world cup, where England has won the series by 4-3. England is favourite for the final match, but Pakistan is unpredictable team. Which team you have selected for the final match?
This whole tournament has been so freaking unpredictable which is why I wouldn't be surprised if Pakistan thrashed England into the stratosphere. Also, I don't think Royse would reveal his pick since the competitors could gain an advantage.

I would cashout since it's still great profits at the end of the day which is all that matters. Did this successfully several times throughout my betting career and I never regretted any of my decisions even when the final bets won.
However, I wouldn't cashout if the difference was very, very big for obvious reasons. High risk, High reward all the freaking way.

They basically rolled over a full Indian team and F$ucked em up lol
Yup. Extremely disappointed! Rohit should give up captaincy and Hardik should lead the team in the future because I can sparks of MSD in him as a captain, batsman etc. Surprise! surprise!! Look who is leading the pool :-)
Congrats! Most players in the pool still have a good shot at landing in the top 3 positions due to small differences in points which is why the final will decide who ends up in the top 3.

Both semi-finals were one-sided affairs which proved to be boring as hell. Very few people expected New Zealand and India to crash out of the tournament by Pakistan and England who actually lost against Zimbabwe and Ireland earlier.
It's very, very difficult to predict who will win the final due to the unpredictability factor. Personally, I would bet on England.

45% off? Lol. I wouldn't go that far, but I would definitely say that BTC is available for purchase at a bargain price at the moment and whoever purchased it when it slid below 16 grand are the lucky ones. Why?
Because I am confident that it will bounce back closer to 20 grand before the year ends which implies that they stand to receive close to 25% profits if they can HODL their stash till then.
It could take even longer to rise back closer to 20 grand, but it will happen eventually in my opinion.

107/0? What's up with all the Indian bowlers? None of them are bowling well. England are absolutely decimating them at the moment. India still has a slim chance at turning this one around and winning.
Hales and Buttler are spectacular together. The situation looks really bad for the Indians and it looks like England will meet Pakistan in the finals.

Pakistan should copyright the word "Unpredictable".
What a beautiful moment for the Pakistani team. They were lagging in the group stage, dependent on the other team's results, and with sheer luck qualified for the semis but when it mattered most they played quality cricket, Props to them.
Agreed. Pakistan decimated New Zealand unexpectedly. The first over by Shaheen was amazing and I knew that NZ were in trouble from that over itself. New Zealand screwed themselves thanks to pointless run-outs, bad fielding, crap wicketkeeping etc which is why they totally deserved to lose this match. Now, India should somehow win against England to face Pakistan in the final.
