What the heck? Pakistan is thrashing New Zealand at the moment. I bet on New Zealand and am very, very disappointed with their performance in all areas today.

Azam and Rizwan are demolishing New Zealand and I feel that they could even chase down 200 with ease at this point. What an unbelievable turnaround by Pakistan. They should thank South Africa for this miraculous opportunity.

This year majority of the openers from almost every team went bust and if we look at the trend then, the middle order doing all the work.

Guess it's because of the lively pitches with the new ball and when it gets softer, it becomes easier to bat on.

Also, long boundaries are playing a nice part in this tourney. I'm loving it! It makes competition so fair between bat and ball.
Agreed. Phillips, Surya, Shadab etc are some of the middle order players who shined brilliantly in this tournament so far which is why your logic makes perfect sense overall.

This is also one of the reasons why there were so few 200+ scores in this tournament.

Also, I observed so many players getting out thanks to long boundaries in this tournament which would have gone for sixes and fours in smaller stadiums as you mentioned making this tournament way more entertaining.

Legit casinos display the RTP of their slot games which is usually the real deal and they don't try and cheat their customers since they are aware of the fact that cheating could end their business in a flash.

On the other hand, scam sites do tweak their slot game RTPs and will never reveal this truth for obvious reasons. This is why research is crucial when choosing sites to gamble in.

Its not only Kohli - its Kohli + umpire decisions too
India has been favoured by umpires and it's true - believe it or not. and you are right on your point that India will win the world cup - I have no doubts about it.
Really? Is that all? It's pretty clear that you don't like the Indian team which is why you are spewing all sorts of crap which no one in their right mind would take seriously. Grow up already shill.

If India manages to defeat England, and Pakistan manages the same against New Zealand, then we will have a final match between these two countries.
India defeating England makes way more sense when compared to Pakistan defeating New Zealand, but this is the World Cup of upsets which implies that anything can happen.
2565  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T-20 CWC Prediction Pool 2022 on: November 07, 2022, 06:30:59 PM
Pakistan - Babar and Rizwan look really out of touch but the good thing is middle order and bowlers are doing all the heavy lifting. The same issue with India, we have depressing KL and Rohit at top (he's looking bad). NZ has no big shot except Kane but they have a nice team. England still didn't play according to their reputation, especially their batters.
Agreed. None of these teams dominated the competition in the Super 12 which is why it's really tough to tell who will lift the cup at the end. India vs Pakistan in the final would be epic though purely for entertainment purposes.

How about New Zealand to win the World Cup?
The black caps are my favorite. I predict New Zealand vs England final again and this time New Zealand wins it :-)
They are in the strongest position to lift the cup thanks to their amazing bowling lineup primarily if you ask me.

Observed so many fools in this thread who actually believe that ETH is actually better than BTC in terms of adoption, fees etc when the reverse is true. BTC will always remain king in my opinion.

ETH TX fees and times have definitely decreased in recent times, but they are still way higher when compared to BTC TX times and fees.

For example, I sent a BTC TX recently from a site to one of my wallets which was processed within 10-15 minutes and the fees were pretty much negligible.
2567  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T-20 CWC Prediction Pool 2022 on: November 07, 2022, 04:45:15 AM
Semi-finals up next people. New Zealand vs Pakistan and India vs England. India is probably relieved to not face NZ, but England is a tough competitor too. Excited!

Along with Netherlands, Ireland, Zimbabwe, we need to add Afghanistan. The match of Australia vs Afghanistan is very close and an unexpected performance came from Rashid Khan. If the middle order have performed better, Afghanistan might've won the match. This time rain made some disturbance, and the rest is history with these teams performance.
Agreed. Rashid was spectacular in that match and almost scripted another crazy upset out of nowhere towards the end. Many teams like India, England etc actually got lucky in some matches by winning narrowly against their competitors.

No KYC as many posters above mentioned is a tough sell, but it's not impossible which is why actions speak louder than words in this context.

Am not interested in placing bets over the phone which is why you guys need to provide a great interface to help gamblers place bets. Time will prove whether your words hold weight or not op. All the best!

South Africa keeps choking as usual in the big tournaments. Expected big things from them, but they ended up playing like crap in their critical encounter against NED. Van Der Merwe probably took the catch of the tournament.

India's match against Zimbabwe was pretty boring since they thrashed them as expected. Raza and Williams are the only decent players in their team in my opinion.

Excited for the semis between NZ, PAK, IND and ENG next week. IND vs PAK final would be epic!

Too many crazy posts coming from him if you ask me. I have also read several posts from him where he talks about his success in gambling and how he likes to play big amounts of money. But he also claims that martingale works and that he found a way to beat the house using martingale. I am not sure if he is just trolling or what. His story sounds totally weird and unbelievable to me.
I don't really think he was lying about the 9 grand win because he did share proof related to it, but he clearly isn't a professional gambler since he actually feels that a negative progression strategy like Martingale can always beat the house.

My point, though, is that someone who claims that "There is no way you will fail 7 times and if you do just increase the bet and you will get it back eventually even if you wait 12 times" obviously either hasn't gambled much or is a compulsive liar.
True. 7 times is nothing. Personally, I witnessed a 21 losing streak which blew my mind though I bet small units luckily.

Bangladesh vs Pak : Quarter-final? Insanity! Also, it looks like Gunathilaka flushed his pathetic life down the drain.

Holy cow, Proteas choked Again!!

This World Cup is keep giving unexpected results when everything looked settled. Props to Netherlands team, now ICC should really look more closely to associate nations.

With this result, India is through Semis and now all eyes are on the virtual quarter-final between Ban vs Pak.
Am speechless. This is the same team that comfortably defeated India recently. Teams like Netherlands, Zimbabwe and Ireland impressed everyone in this World Cup and they helped make this World Cup one of the most entertaining ones in a while.
2572  Economy / Gambling / Re: US players, where are you playing now? on: November 05, 2022, 04:51:06 PM
This made me curious. How does your friends managed to play on online casinos if they are in U.S? is it without using VPNs or there are just online platforms which allows online gambling.
They are just online platforms which allow online gambling and are very, very famous in the USA. Am not sure if they are crypto friendly though.

Their gamblers are supposed to provide KYC(SSN etc) in order to verify their citizenship which implies that these sites probably paid the US government tons of money to obtain legitimate licenses.

What I really like about sites like Fanduel is that they offer same game parlays which are offered by only a handful of sportsbooks globally.
2573  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T-20 CWC Prediction Pool 2022 on: November 05, 2022, 11:44:56 AM
Guess no one expecting any upset today and it does look like England is about to qualify for semis in group 1 due to the run rate.

Sri Lanka had some chance as it was a batting pitch and they did get off with an excellent start but they literally threw it away in the middle overs and failed to recover.
You were almost wrong. Sri Lanka almost kicked England out of the tournament towards the end, but they failed and this implies that the current T-20 World Champ(Australia) are out. Stokes saved his team once again by playing till the end.

Two spots have been taken by NZ and ENG and two spots are remaining. Let's see if SA and IND will take them without any drama.
2574  Economy / Gambling / Re: I won 1500 dollars on a ufc fight + quit gambling on: November 05, 2022, 11:30:14 AM
What was your success rate before those two positive outcomes? Did you gamble much, did you win or lose, and how did you end the year altogether profit-wise? 
I checked some of his previous posts and observed that he was debt free which clearly implies that he won more than he lost overall. The crazy part here is that he won 9 grand by fluke since he bet 200 bucks on 2% chance in dice by mistake.

Another crazy thing here is that BC.Game let him withdraw the entire amount without asking any KYC though he didn't withdraw it all at once.

A part for all the discussion - India  will win the world cup this is for sure - matches are fixed
Lol shill. Looks like your favorite team won't qualify which is why you are spewing this crap like other pathetic haters out there. Grow up!

I would say that at this point there is only 20% to 25% chance that India would win the world cup. Apart from Arshdeep Singh, the other bowlers have been disappointing. And at the top order, KL Rahul has been a disaster so far. Dinesh Karthik has also failed to find runs.
All of your points make sense, but you are forgetting the fact that is the T-20 format where unpredictable stuff happens all the time. All 4 teams in the semi-finals have equal chances at winning the cup if you ask me.
2576  Economy / Gambling / Re: US players, where are you playing now? on: November 04, 2022, 06:08:43 PM
Am not from the US, but I do know several US citizens who usually play in sites like Fanduel, Draftkings, Pinnacle etc since they receive a lot of great promos from these sites and have no issues providing their KYC to these reliable sites.

Bovada and Betcoin.ag are two more sites which are great for US players based on their opinions.
2577  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T-20 CWC Prediction Pool 2022 on: November 04, 2022, 12:35:59 PM
Rashid Khannn! Wow! This gem of a man injured himself in the last match and returned to deliver this kind of performance which almost helped his team win against mighty Australia. What a player!

Pakistan has another option to qualify for semi-final. In that case, South Africa vs Netherlands match need be abandoned for rain. Then Pakistan need victory against Bangladesh with a good margin. The equation looks funny though Cheesy
Great point. I completely forgot about the rain factor. Pakistan should only blame themselves for depending on miracles in order to move forward in the tournament.
2578  Economy / Gambling / Re: I won 1500 dollars on a ufc fight + quit gambling on: November 04, 2022, 12:01:10 PM
You used the best strategy out there(Yolo gambling) which is why you managed to beat the house and deserve the win. This was a high risk, High reward strategy and it luckily worked for you.

Quitting when you are ahead is never easy which is why I tip my hat towards your decision op. However, you should have been more careful while exposing your details online.
2579  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sportsbet.io 🏏 Men's T20 World Cup 2022 🏏 Discussion thread on: November 04, 2022, 04:08:25 AM
Africa will naturally win against Netherlands and on the other hand Pakistan's chance is also very high against Bangladesh. If both the mentioned teams win both the matches then the team with more points will qualify for the semi finals.
Lol. What? Pakistan needs South Africa and India to lose their upcoming matches and they should win against Bangladesh in order to qualify for the semis.

Ireland @6.60
New Zealand @1.11
Bad odds to be honest. New Zealand will most likely decimate Ireland, but I expected the odds to be closed to 1.25 or something which is why I feel that 1.11 is way too low.

Last match in this tournament for Ireland. And if they lose this match, they will be required to play the qualifier tournament for the T20 World Cup of 2024.
I doubt anyone cares whether Ireland wins or not considering the fact that they have an extremely small fan-base. Honestly, teams like Zimbabwe and Netherlands impressed me a lot more when compared to Ireland in this tournament.

Musk is an egotistical fleabag who probably only wanted to buy Twitter because he wasn't satisfied with some of their decisions in recent years(Banning Trump etc).

He decided not to go through with it at the last moment(Probably due to shareholders pressuring him), but couldn't change his decision due to legal issues. Twitter is basically a toy for him to play with.
