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.

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.

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.

Pakistan VS India
A lot of forum members thought that this is a game that Pakistan would easily win. To all of them you were wrong and you will always remain wrong as you are a groupe of individuals who believe in dream.

As usual the match was close enough as expected. I would think Virat Kohli survived his first reat but for players like Surya Kumar this might be the end of his career. Arshdeep Singh was good as Bhuvneshwar Kumar. I think these two team might play again in the Aisia cup, if Pakistan doesn't play the way they did today. In my understanding they were too overconfident.
2609  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: August 28, 2022, 02:45:20 PM
Good start by India got the main batter Baber Azam out. Pakistan only scored 15 runs and they lost their main batsmen. Most Pakistani supporters on this forum vouched for him. But, for me he is not a team player. He is only trying to create his own record and suddenly under the pressure he collapsed. This match is still on! Arshdeep Singh needs to get a wicket now if he wants to cement his name in the A team of India for long term.  
Pakistan is quite in pressure. The number of 23 runs in 4 overs is very low in T20. If they do not increase their run rate in the remaining two overs, they must be under more pressure. Pakistan will definitely want to play big short in the remaining two overs where have the possibility of losing wickets.
They lost their second wicket! Fakar Zaman from a newbie. What a shame for Pakistani batters. This match will be a hilarious as they don't have their attacking bowler. I reckon they will score somewhere around 100 to 150 runs at the most. Most forum members vouched that these two guys would rule the game, unfortunately they never were able to get through it.

From $3 to $0.16 now. I do not think it will ever reach $50. It is only going down and down. If you have invested in it then it is better to sell it now before it reaches $0. For the last 4 years after its inception the developers have not done anything major with it. We all know the fate of privacy coins. Most of them are either dead or are struggling to stay a float. I assume the same will happen with this one too.

I still feel that the South African side would be able to get through as they have beaten India in the past and also Australia. Out of six matches, they can easily win 3. Bangladesh and Afghanistan are the weak teams out of those 7 who have already qualified. They won't be able to create any buzz when they play in World Cup.

First of all, I am not 100% sure whether South Africa will be able to win the two remaining matches against Netherlands. And the remaining 6 matches will be played in India and Australia. Getting 3 wins doesn't look very easy. Anyway, as of now Sri Lanka has the maximum chances, in case they can get 3 wins from their 6 matches. And it is quite possible because their remaining matches are against Afghanistan and New Zealand. If they could get 2 wins against Afghanistan and one against NZ, then they're through.

Only time will tell which team will qualify but after watching Afghanistan win against Srilanka I am sure it would not be easy for Srilanka anymore.

While watching the match yesterday I saw an advertisement on the Disney Hotstar app. The advert in question is of 1xBET and I would like to check with you and @JSRAW if is this even legal. Are these apps allowed to promote gambling in India?
Another important thing is that this company is known for conducting fraud and illegal activities. I came across a Scam Accusation about it.

2614  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: August 28, 2022, 03:25:36 AM
Afghanistan vs Sri Lanka match is gonna be unforgettable for both the teams. None could've expected such a performance from Sri Lanka. The innings that is predicted to end within 100 runs have reached 105 runs losing every wickets. If Afghanistan play with the right momentum, this could be an easy win for them.
Afghanistan players played well in this match. Afghanistan's bowling has played a lot of bette. Few of Afghanistan batted and scored many runs. All in all, they did very well in the match. On the other hand, Sri Lanka had to lose this match because the players they have could not play very well. Both bowling and batting were played badly by Sri Lanka.

Srilankan was not expecting Fazalhaq Farooqi balling to be so devastating. He took the crucial wickets and was on the verge of getting a hat trick. Pathum Nissanka could have helped the Srilankan side but his dismissal (which by the way is questionable) destroyed all the hopes. The running between the wickets by the Srilankan batters was appalling. Bhanuka Rajapaksa was run out by Fazalhaq Farooqi when he was going well against the Afghanisthan bowlers. In all Srilanka underestimated the Afghanisthan team which resulted in this humiliating loss.

Who else thinks that this match will end today?

Looking back at the first innings, when the pitch was supporting the English bowlers do you guys think the same thing will happen in the second innings? The SA side has not lost any wickets yet and has scored 23 runs and I am expecting that on day 3 they might lose all the wickets. 241 runs lead is not that easy for the SA batters to chase unless and until they form a partnership.
The match is already ended with the result of England won by an inning and 85 what transformation by England after losing first match in just three days they fight back and won this second test match at Manchester by same style with an inning bowlers done amazing job specially I love to watch James Anderson as he is taking five to six wickets in every match now his tally is 664 in 174 matches which is incredible.

Now, it's time for South Africa they need to think about their mistakes which they have done in this match with their batting totally fail, and they have to face this big defeat now they have 11 days for covering their confidence and have to fight for win in this series at The Oval.

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.

This is an old-school way of scamming greedy newbies. These scammers generally contact using Direct Messaging and would always send a message similar to what you have received. They mainly target social media platforms or on chat apps and their success rate is also good. That is why it is necessary to close DMs on any social media platforms and ignore such messages on chat apps.
2617  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: August 27, 2022, 05:54:49 AM
I think SA will be able to qualify as they still have 8 matches left and this team has the potential to win all 8 matches. Srilanka does have 6 more matches but the team is very unreliable when it comes to ODI. What interested me with the qualifying list is that Bangladesh and Afghanistan qualified. I was not expecting these two teams to be on the qualifying list.

Not sure about South Africa. They need to win at least 5 out of their 8 matches. And their remaining (Cool matches are against: Netherlands (2), India (3, in India), Australia (3, in Australia). They may easily win the two matches against Netherlands, but I am doubtful whether they may manage 3 wins from the remaining 6 matches.

And regarding Bangladesh and Afghanistan, they performed really well in the ODI super league so far. Bangladesh had series wins against West Indies and Sri Lanka. Afghanistan swept Zimbabwe, Netherlands and Ireland 3-0, while got occasional wins against other teams.

I still feel that the South African side would be able to get through as they have beaten India in the past and also Australia. Out of six matches, they can easily win 3. Bangladesh and Afghanistan are the weak teams out of those 7 who have already qualified. They won't be able to create any buzz when they play in World Cup.

Virat Kohli was once a king of cricket.Everyone was delighted to play so beautifully and no one could fail to admire his playing But from the day she got married to the Indian star, her mind has moved away from the cricket board.What I do most is that he is playing so much crap for the Indian star.But he should not have wasted his life for this Indian star. He is still given many opportunities if he can do well but all problems are solved.
Why will Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma's relationship affect the world of cricket? I think some viewers are always obsessed with the various comments about them and the people in the media who are ‍also with them. It can be said that the media has a big role in this situation. Anyway, I hope Virat Kohli will return to his career again.

They are not obsessed but jealous that how can a middle-class boy be able to marry a girl who is not only a big actress but is also a big entrepreneur? You can question Virat Kohli on his ill form and worst attitude but it would be bad to question his cricket getting affected because of his wife or his daughter. Pandya is also married to a model and part-time Bollywood actress no one questioned his relationship when he was out of form. I hope he gets his lost form in the upcoming Asia cup otherwise he will have a difficult time out of the field.

Anyone following the 2020–2023 ICC Cricket World Cup Super League positions?

As of now, 7 teams have confirmed their standing in top-8, thereby directly qualifying to the 2023 ODI World Cup.

1. England
2. Bangladesh
3. Pakistan
4. New Zealand
5. India
6. Afghanistan
7. Australia

The final position will be decided in the next 2-3 months and the teams that are competing for the 8th position are:

1. West Indies (88 points from 24 matches. 0 matches remaining)
2. Ireland (68 points from 21 matches. 3 matches remaining)
3. Sri Lanka (62 points from 18 matches. 6 matches remaining)
4. South Africa (49 points from 16 matches. 8 matches remaining)

Only one among these 4 teams will manage direct qualification.

I think SA will be able to qualify as they still have 8 matches left and this team has the potential to win all 8 matches. Srilanka does have 6 more matches but the team is very unreliable when it comes to ODI. What interested me with the qualifying list is that Bangladesh and Afghanistan qualified.
