I do not think Pakistan is such a worst team that they will loke against Hongkong. They have a tendency to be inconsistent but they generally play well in big tournaments. If it was Hongkong against Bangladesh then I would given the same statement as yours. They might not have Shaheen Afridi but they still have others who gave tough time to Indian batters.

I am not saying that Hong Kong has a 50% or even 25% chance of defeating Pakistan. But looking at their performance against India, they doesn't seem like a very weak team. All I am saying is that Pakistan needs to be careful. If they get complacent, then Hong Kong may use this opportunity to get an upset win against them. And as I mentioned, they have already proved that they are capable of upsets. And that was back in 2014 against Bangladesh. Anyway, less than 2 hours to go for the match. Let's see how it turns out.
I do understand that Pakistan should be careful and not take Hongkong as a weak side. But, they (HK) are not more capable than Afghanistan in this tournament. They are a hired bunch and not natives representing or playing for their land. A lot of them are either Pak/Ind origin but their proffesional approach is commendable. We did viewed it when they played against India. Just imagine if Hongkong would offer them extra money today just to destroy the morale of Pakistan. Still I believe Pakistan is in a good position against Hongkong.

By the way most HK players have a day job. They only play because they love cricket.

Did Hong Kong bat well against India? Hong Kong is a small group. They scored more than 150 against India so we appreciate them. But in this match, Hong Kong players did not bat to win. Their aim was to reduce the run gap with India. In fact they did not play well. Maybe they will play well against Pakistan, but Hong Kong has not yet achieved the ability to win the match. Their players are still unprofessional and inexperienced.

Hong Kong did well, but in the end they lost to India. And given how unpredictable the Pakistani team is, I would say that there is no guarantee that they will win today's match. Their best bowler (Shaheen Shah Afridi) is out due to injury. And some of the Hong Kong players showed great maturity and composure during their encounter with India. Babar Hayat managed a quick 41, while Kinchit Shah made 30 from 28 balls. And among the bowlers, the 19-year old Ayush Shukla was very impressive, along with Yasim Murtaza.

$400 million in punitive damages will completely destroy Stake if they lose and in the meantime, many users will leave the casino fearing the outcome of this lawsuit. I guess the founders should resolve this issue out of court otherwise this lawsuit will also dent Stake's reputation. This lawsuit looks similar to the Zukerberg and Winklevoss issue wherein the latter one $65 million in the settlement.

Bangladesh lost the match . I think Ebadot Hossain will be criminal to Bangladeshi people.  And I also think that his contribution is the most behind the loss of Bangladesh.  Because he gave a total of 52 runs in four overs.  Anyway congratulations to the Sri Lankan team for qualifying for the next stage.
I missed the match live and i am yet to watch the highlights but was watching the scoreboard to see the updates, once Bangladesh set a solid score of 183 runs, i thought it would be a hurdle for Sri Lanka and on top of that after getting a good start while chasing they started loosing wickets and i thought they will never chase the score but was surprised to see that they won with 4 balls to spare .

I also missed the live match and just now saw the highlight. The Bangladesh team played like a bunch of amateurs when they knew that this was such an important match for them. Too many no-balls, few important catches dropped, and above all spinners were ineffective It is evident in the last over which was bowled by Mahedi Hasan. He was the one who has the highest economic rate and also the one responsible for the no-ball which helped Srilanka win the match. They also got penalized because they were two overs behind.

The best thing you can do is to buy a cheap android phone with a Bluetooth headset. Hide it from your family and use it whenever they are not in the house or whenever you are alone. Keep your second phone in your car or in your basement so that no one knows about it. In case they do find out about this phone then you can tell them it is for work purposes and that is the reason you bought a cheap one.

I think it is rather the second option. Especially at the beginning. Now that it is more normalized, not so much.

Were they really surprised though? Casinos were one of the earliest adopters of internet, going online and doing all kinds of digital marketing and developing digital payments even from the late 1990s -- a major reason was restrictive regulations that pushed them away from physical opportunities.

And after a few years of enjoying little or no regulation on the Internet, casinos eventually ended up regulated and having to acquire licenses.

Something similar happens with cryptocurrency gambling houses. They enjoy a legal limbo, but in a few years the same thing that happened with fiat gambling houses will happen. There are going to be stricter regulations that they are going to have to adopt.


Strict regulation and not being able to conduct business easily is the reason why gambling industries are the front runners in adopting new technologies.  Most countries are working on regulation but a handful of them have been able to come up with it. They still are not clear about Bitcoin and most think it is used only for illegal activities. Therefore they themselves spread the fear about Bitcoin.
2587  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you think about the school lessons of gambling addiction? on: September 01, 2022, 07:14:48 AM
It depends if gambling is very rampant in that country, but if it's about accessibility to any gambling-related sites or tools it should be the parent's obligation to see to it that their children will not be addicted or the subject is properly explained to children, the parents can teach addiction to their children effectively, because they have a moral obligation to their children to teach them the harmful effects of gambling.


In some countries, Gambling is accessible to teens but in most countries, the legal age is 18 still teens gamble because they have access to the internet or they have friends who are into gambling. Parents surely have a duty towards their children but all they can do is monitor and keep a check. They can guide them but they cannot be with the child 24/7. I think since most part of the day a child is in school therefore it becomes a moral obligation for them to also inform the about the harmful effect of Gambling.

For all those who are looking for a secure weekly or monthly income and wish to entrust their bankroll to our professionals.
Multiply your bankroll over a pre-set period of time from our platform.

I am still trying to understand how your algorithm guarantees a secure weekly or monthly income. As @Little Mouse stated more data is needed to back your claims. Another thing I found is that the domain name has been registered on 2022-08-25 and is registered only for a year. That does not look good when you trying to promote yourself as a secure way to earn constant income.

Hong Kong bowlers leaked too many runs in the depth overs, and if that was not the case then the match would have been very competitive. And their fielding was also not that great. Some easy chances were dropped and runs were given away. It was a decent performance from Hong Kong. But doesn't matter much, as they don't have any natives playing for them. Unless they manage to spread the game to the natives, in the long term the growth will be stunted. Also they can contact players such as Sam Hain, who are eligible to represent them. If these players agree to be included in the squad, then it will be a big boost for them.

Hong Kong bowlers were brilliant in the early stage of the match. The way they were controlling KL Rahul and Virat Kohli was the reason why the Indian run rate has hanging around 7 runs per over. The last over was the reason why India was able to score 192 runs. 4 sixes were hit by Surya Kumar in that over and it was the most expensive over in the match. If Hong Kong had put a check on those runs then the outcome of this game would have been different. Being a British colony for a long time I was expecting a few native Chinese players on their team. Cricket Hong Kong needs to encourage cricket matches to be played in schools and colleges apart from soccer.

They are doing a better job so far considering they hardly play cricket continuously. Still, at the same time in the next decade they need to beat top teams on a regular basis too, and not just when conditions are favorable to them but in alien conditions too. Bongbros are just freefalling and it seems they don't have any answers.

Although the national team is not playing very frequently, Afghan players are very popular with franchise T20 leagues and they usually have a very busy schedule. That seems to have helped, given that T20 format was used for this edition of the Asia Cup. On the other hand, Bangladesh doesn't play T20 matches very regularly. Only a few of their players are active in the T20 leagues. Compared to other formats, ODI is their preferred one. Anyway there is no doubt that Bangladesh (as well as Sri Lanka) is on freefall now.
IMO despite SL losing against Afghanistan, in recent times SL has shown a fair amount of improvement with their young team so I won't put their name in the same bracket as Bongs.

If I'm not wrong then only 3-4 Afg players play regularly in T-20 leagues mainly their spinners, their batters and fast bowlers hardly get any chances but i agree Afghans are much better team in T-20.

They are already in the super four and they might play with either India or Pakistan. I am pretty sure this Afghanistan team will give a hard time to either of the team. Their bowling has improved a lot and that can become a pain for both India and Pakistan. I also feel after the Asia cup a few of their bowlers might get selected for the next IPL season too.

Nothing new about them. If you do a search about them on this forum you will find many users going through the same situation as you have now. Everything goes fine until you win and try to withdraw from them. You can try to question them but I am sorry to say that nothing will go in your favor.

Actually that is what we should do but unfortunately, not many of us can really leave gambling forever. Some of us still go back to gambling and play our favorite games, although some don't often gamble anymore.

In my opinion, those who leave gambling are the ones who have only lost their money in the early days. The next are those who make a profit but lose everything after greed takes over them. The last ones are those who have lost everything because of gambling addiction and now want to leave it. Other than that I have not heard anyone leaving this addiction so easily.

The fact that Macau is the gambling capital and not Vegas surprised me. I always had the impression that Vegas was the gambling capital of the world. I never knew Macau has already replaced it. The funniest was the mobile casino at the back of a London cab. I was wondering how many gamblers can actually fit in the back of that London cab. The craziest fact was peeing on the gaming floor, was wondering what level of addiction these gamblers have to embarrass themselves in front of everyone. 

Macau has specialized law dedicated for gambling industry while Nevada still stick to there old rules which makes Macau easily get the spotlight for having an open region any type of gamblers. Chinese gamblers shares huge part of gambling revenue on Vegas before and China decided to compete US on this kind of business to share on that gambling revenue which US only monopolizing.

So, now the revenue from Chinese-based gamblers is being shared by both Vegas and Macau and hopefully, Vegas might not share that revenue in the near future. I did some research and found out that gambling was legalized in Macau at the time when it was a Portuguese colony. The primary revenue of Macau is through the gambling industry and before the 20th century only Chinese-based gambling games were played.

Why we have to leave gambling at the end where we take it as for fun only ! I think there is nothing wrong when we take its only for entertainment purpose except when a person going to addicted on it . I think the stealing of happiness and health that you speak of will only happen to gamblers who cannot control themselves.

Every addiction starts with the purpose of getting entertained or having good times. If you have self-control over it then there is no problem but when you lose that self-control problem arises. In that situation, it is better to seek professional help and leave gambling. Most gamblers do not have self-control and there have been many stories that have been shared here.

Seems like Pakistanis are not much interested in cricket these days - because there is a heavy flood running in Pakistan and the people are busy helping flood affected areas.
Yesterday for the first time - people did not show much enthusiasm for the match and they remained busy in helping the people in need.

How is that related by the way? If Pakistan had won the match against India you would not have given such a statement Grin. If flooding and natural calamity were the reason for them losing the match then they could have skipped the match or they could have asked the Pakistani community in the middle east to help the destitute affected due to the floods.

Did they? They could have gone a step further and could have asked the Indian team, BCCI, or the emirates cricket board to donate the earnings from this match to the relief efforts. Did they? No, they went ahead with the match and lost it. Do not bring such emotional issues to get a safe exit for the effortless effort of the Pakistan team.  

It is only a game! It has nothing to do with the situation currently in Pakistan. If you are so concerned then go ahead and donate your earnings to this noble cause.

In my opinion, you should have done a Google search before asking such a question as there are numerous websites providing in detail definitions with examples. BTT is a forum where you ask questions that are not found on Google.

  • Decentralized Finance: provide everything that a fiat financial organization provides without any centralized owner.
  • Cryptocurrency: It is a digital currency that is not governed by a centralized authority.

Both are interrelated and use Blockchain technology.

Affhanistan vs Bangladesh

Bangladesh will face Afghanistan tomorrow. I think this match will also be very competitive. Because both teams are almost equally strong.
In the first match against Sri Lanka, the players of Afghanistan showed great power. Will they be able to maintain the same performance against Bangladesh?
Bangladesh has faced Afghanistan 8 times in the T20 format. Afghanistan won 5 of these matches. Considering the statistics and recent performances, the Afghanistan team seems to be the favourites.
However, the performance of the Bangladesh team is unpredictable. Often they surprise everyone by performing well. All in all, I think we will get a chance to enjoy a very competitive match.

Hey!@LittleBitFunny just edit the spelling of Afghanistan in bold, you have written Affhanistan. Coming to the point Bangladesh will face a strong team. They have brilliant attacking bowlers like Fazalhaq Farooqi and Rashi Khan. If Bangladesh wins the toss then they might be able to win the match if not then they will be in trouble.

Good, come back by the English side. Now it will be more interesting to watch the third test match. Hopefully, that would not end in just three days. All praises to Ben Stokes his contribution as a captain, batter, and bowler was immense in this test match. Without his contribution as a batter, the English side would not have been able to put pressure on the SA batters.

With this loss, SA has lost its top position on the point table of the World Test Championship. Interestingly Srilanka is on third position followed by India. Australia is at number 1 position.

The second test completely revolved around Ben, he was good with Bat, Bowl and also with his captaincy. England are doing same thing as they did during Root captaincy i.e. relying only on one player. Its time England must understand that for long term gain they must perform as a team not just one player.
I think you are right England will realize someday how big a mistake they have made but England don't realize that now England are dependent on only one team but what will they do when they don't have this player they still face a lot of problems when  Then they will think about how big a mistake they have made
It is actually happening, when they were playing against Newzealand they relied heavily on Bairstow performance, then with England the same and now with South Africa they are dependent on Ben. Everyone in the team should contribute but only one or two players are contributing. This will surely become a big problem for the English side in the future.
