Mane didn’t score Grin
Hope he has not used too much of his energy LOL


Quote
That Man Utd game worries me a little, we should batter them but you know what they’ll be like. They’ll be frothing at the mouth, desperate to stop our run. The fans will be up for it too.
I am too having a worry about the match since it's Utd. They will surely try to prove that they are not gone yet and taking away some points from us (hope it does not happen) will surely give them a confident that they are still alive. And obviously since they are playing in their ground the fans will also cheers for them more than us.

I hope all liverpool and man utd players are not injured so both teams can play with full team, so the match can be great.
F utd players LOL
9 days to go till the manchester united vs liverpool clash ... and for now I can see the bookies is giving away odds for liverpool moneyline to win against the relegation candidate @1.77 Grin , it should be an easy money considering how Manchester United are on the worst form so far , I feel bad for them.

Any injury from the international break could always causing the odds up and down , I'll just grab these good odds while it last!
Also a draw @3.85 seems good though, I'll just consider this.

The other interesting part is that israeli forward... eran zahavi is always scoring in almost every single israel game! He is even the euro qualifier top scorer now!
That's a nice piece of information. I'm looking at my fiat bookie, and they have Zahavi to score anytime @3.40, not bad, although I think i'll go with ML on this match.

Btw, does anyone cares about the Germany vs Argentina friendly tomorrow? Yeah it's a friendly a teams don't play for anything so there's little to no motivation, but odds in that game are looking pretty good right now.
How is it going mate? Zahavi scored again for israel! He is leading the euro qualification now with 10 goals , 63 minutes per goal! 630 mins played, unbelievable stats over there!

Don't worry you are not the only one who lost for san marino -6.5 handicap ... the odds were too good indeed but that was a crazy first half of 6 goals scored , luckily I was expected they will be more aggressive in the first half than the second half so I have a backup bet for this match for highest scoring goal at first half, things just fine .

Crazy goal galore happened for Netherlands in the last 10 minutes with an outstanding comeback, 1 goal at 80' and two goals at the injury time ... nobody expected this omg.

Did you multi-accounting ? These are the reasons why people usually get blocked,

Having multi-account can get you blocked? What's the reason?
Claiming promo multiple times for instance.

I'm from the Philippines. No multi-accounting. I'm fully aware of the usual sportsbook rules. I bet on betonline.ag and other books. I shifted to sportsbook.io because they payout fast and was referred by my friends. I was able to payout 100$ yesterday, and today after I requested my payout they blocked/banned me.

I complied with IDs and documents before doing bets. I submitted them after I registered on the website.

So it's a Sportsbet.io problem. It's not a problem on my end.
If I was multi-accounting then they should've known that after I registered and after they approved my documents 4 days ago.

Then it's strange.. never happened to me , I mean you are a new customer who come there won some and they ask you for KYC ... is that for real?
If they did it to me , I'll straight leaving .

However is there any chance for you to use a US ip VPN accidentally?

I'm curious if there's nothing wrong on your end, how could they do that. Let's see what's actually going on .

Hi,

I can see that our relevant department has reached out to you a few hours ago.

They should be able to solve the matter.

thanks for your query.

regards,

Steve.
Sportsbet.io

Can you please tell me what’s happening? Did you block my account because I’m winning?
Something wrong is going on. I messaged you on live chat, email and facebook. Don’t toss me around like I’m nobody.

It’s been 3 hours and my account is still disabled. I complied 4 days ago. Approved by you guys! Resubmitted 3 hours ago. No replies!

Are you US resident? Did you multi-accounting ? These are the reasons why people usually get blocked, otherwise there might something else wrong. I have won $100 for like 1,000 times here in sportsbet.io and until today right now my account is just fine.

I believe the situation is not that simple like what you stated above ...
you won the bet - then your account get banned/blocked

It's just doesn't makes any sense unless there's a problem either on you or sportsbet.io side.
2905  Economy / Economics / Re: Why Bitcoin is not that good as currency? on: October 09, 2019, 05:06:27 AM
I understand your point and it's very logical, but you got something that is obviously wrong.

Why do people keep on assuming that Bitcoin is money? Bitcoin isn't money, it's an asset, it is obvious that the change in value wouldn't be the same as fiat. As it is an economic driven currency, while investments like Bitcoin is volatile and it is not determined by how much money is being printed out but how much is being mined. Gold is a very good comparison to Bitcoin, as they have the same properties as being an asset. Scarcity is pretty much what determines the price of Bitcoin, the lower the quantity the higher its price would be.
It is an asset but you can always use it as a currency and nobody can stop you doing so. Realistically for the current society that not ready to accept a currency with high volatility l, bitcoin won't be a good currency but who knows ...  someday people realized that is bitcoin the currency they wanted even with its volatility!

Since first day we are a solid believers and will continue to do so. That bitcoin as time goes by could be developed as a widely used currency all over the world. We just haven't find that way ..
2906  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA EURO 2020 Discussion Thread | Current Phase: Qualifying on: October 09, 2019, 04:13:02 AM
the odds for Germany to win @1.86
Draw @3.9
Argentina @4.1

I'll glad to go for draw or Argentina .
In the last 4 matches the head to head is 2 wins for Germany and 2 wins for Argentina. This type of friendly match always full of surprises Grin don't get fooled with the bookie numbers.
That's why i was asking if anyone was interested in this game, odds look pretty decent. I think Germany won't go for an all-out attack gameplan since they have a Euro qualifier game 4 days later, while Argentina have a bunch of players hungry to win and prove the world that even if without the their main stars (Messi, Aguero, Di Maria, etc) they can still win against top national teams.

Do you have any idea about the squad?
Argentina squad? Here: https://twitter.com/Argentina/status/1177604113237979142

On the other hand, Germany: https://twitter.com/DFB_Team/status/1180063519565328384
Bookies know what they are doing ...
The odds seems tricky to me and the price for germany to win continue reducing down to nearly below @1.8 now Grin , everyone is so confident with Germany to win , meanwhile I'm chilling waiting for those @4.1 @3.9 turned into a green light and filling my wallet .

Get your betslip in , germany won't risking too much key players indeed as they have to face Estonia in the euro qualifier this weekend and considering the first place isn't really secured due how tight the points in between 1-3 position. Safe to say Argentina has a lot more chance to win this game for me.
2907  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Smart hodling vs just hodling on: October 08, 2019, 05:31:25 PM

With that in mind, the smarter way to hold bitcoin is to sell it when prices start going down, only to re-buy a larger quantity when prices stabilize at a lower range. Then, with the same capital, you increase your bitcoin holding every time prices drop.

The problem is, not all of us here have ability to do that, I mean who can make a decision about when prices have decreased to sell, and when prices have stabilized and can be bought. I used to experience that feeling when I bought BTC at $ 2k8 in 2017 when it went up to $ 4k I sold when it was profitable, but it continued raising to $ 19k in December 2017.
Then you should make a buyback at some point between those spiking periods $4k to $19k instead shocking and watching it continue skyrocketing, that's your problem Wink .
I personally always positioned myself in two sides ... one to hoodling foreeevah and the other to buy more in case it's crashed just like the recent situation.

So you'll always be in good situation no matter it's falling down ... cause you can load up your bags with more coins , or skyrocketing to the moon as you have quite a lot coin savings !
Sounds fair? That's what I'm doing.

I could not find any casino license on the web page, it seems like an unlicensed casino? Summon @game-protect
So after Roger steps down from CEO, I think bitcoin.com now adopts a more "friendly" strategy towards BTC. But still, I don't like their strategy that involves misleading people to buy BCH when they actually want to buy BTC.

They should get a gambling license for this casino business as later on people will ask for that.
Their site is  well-known so we should expect that getting a license is only peanuts for them.
Ever wonder if they will really pay in BTC or BCH?  Grin
It seems they are using the similar platform like bitcoinvideocasino.com I've played there since 5 years ago which I think it's a good gaming provider. Not sure where roger ver got his unlicensed casino software , one thing is sure that they are operating shady business.

It's not an advice, but guys please be careful dealing with any business that the owner himself got a lot of problems like roger ver did.

The amount of prize itself didn't attract me however Grin .
2909  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do you think Bitcoins biggest vulnerability is? on: October 08, 2019, 04:11:55 PM
The biggest vulnerability of Bitcoin lies not in Bitcoin itself, but in people who use it and who invest in it. Most of them don't understand(and don't have time to learn) how Bitcoin works, and so they are fast to believe in the "quantum computing threat" bullshit and such. I mean, firstly, quantum computing, if it ever happens, will be a threat to the whole world, not only to Bitcoin.

"The quantum computer could also break all the encryption keys on all the nukes in the world", as aantonop said in one lecture, so the possibility of breaking Bitcoin would be the last of our concerns.

Secondly, Bitcoin protocol can be upgraded to resist quantum computing attacks.

Yet, people read about the "quantum computing threat", and start selling like crazy.
There's no more bitcoin as the most secure cryptocurrency network... if there's for real a quantum supercomputer. That's the real big problem for the whole cryptocurrency ecosystem, idk if there's any statement backing with some facts that this quantum computer won't really break the blockchain...

It's seems everyone aware that this is inevitable, we just need to accept and prepare for the worst schemes (disclaimer : I have no intention spreading FUD)

The biggest and latest hot vulnerability for bitcoin is indeed  the quantum computer.
Thoughts ? Any refutation on this?

Worth to give it a shot, believe me it seems he is the only one who can score for israel Grin . A tough game for both israel and Austria it's like now or never to get the full 3 points to steal .

Ouch I didn't notice about this Argentina against Germany game .

the odds for Germany to win @1.86
Draw @3.9
Argentina @4.1

I'll glad to go for draw or Argentina .
In the last 4 matches the head to head is 2 wins for Germany and 2 wins for Argentina. This type of friendly match always full of surprises Grin don't get fooled with the bookie numbers.
2911  Economy / Economics / Re: Economic situation around the world and Bitcoin on: October 08, 2019, 08:49:21 AM
The gold market will indeed happen but before that happens I think the world economy and by various countries will adopt Bitcoin as a digital currency for online payments.We know that currently the world economic turmoil is underway, between China and USA they are fighting to become the No. 1 in the world.

Not that easy, dude, the problem of bitcoin adoption so far is regulation, bitcoin adoption is limited by regulations of each country causing a lack of equitable knowledge of crypto currencies. Not only that, understanding of gold and bitcoin in economic crisis is still unclear especially on bitcoin so most of them would prefer gold.

The biggest impetus of bitcoin is on investors, especially ICO / IEO investors. When ICO was still popular in 2017, bitcoin was able to reach ATH. At the moment I do not know very well whether,  economic situation will side with gold or bitcoin, if there is a bad FUD against bitcoin then I am sure this holder will run to gold.
Gold will always become the most realistic safe haven of storing value whenever the world economics showing unusual activity or an unclear situation like we had right now. Honestly It must be bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency on top on that ... but since google claimed that they have a supercomputer which could solve / crack the powerful encryption in cryptocurrency few weeks ago.

Things went wrong ... cryptocurrency market crashed free fall down to $7,000 from $10,000 because of Google claim! People even leave their wallet empty and move it to gold or just cash them out.

The situation will remain like this all day at least until the end of this year, not much you can do but with the market swing ... you might could take some advantage to trade and get some profit out of it.

I prefer looking for some luck come to me by placing bet for northern Ireland moneyline @17 now and @8 for the draw.
Going for an upset, huh? I like your style. I was thinking of going for a parlay but the odds are horrendously low right now (I'll wait until matchday), but i'm thinking maybe i'll have some fun with a side bet and also go for an upset. Latvia @401/1 odds isn't exactly the smartest choice (lol) but maybe Israel or Hungary to win? I'll think about it...

Belgium too will win their game against San Marino hence I believe betting on Netherlands and Belgium would be considered safe bets.
I'd wait until matchday but either Netherlands over 3.5 @2.39 or Netherlands BTTS @2.37 would be my pick (but i'll skip this game).
I've lost a lot of times on such one-sided game with ridiculous odds like @1.1 @1.2 or so in the past and learned something from it. Since then I'm chasing the impossible betslip everyday ... mostly it contains an odds like @5 @8 @12 in my betting history .. for the parlay? I've won with over @100 several times , I love chasing this!

So I just doing me Grin .
However latvia seems has no chance to fight Poland mate , make sure you only put a money for a glass of beer in it Wink . Israel vs Austria might be more interesting due how they next to each other .. Israel only short 3 points from the 2nd spot and Austria short only 1 point from the 2nd place.

The other interesting part is that israeli forward... eran zahavi is always scoring in almost every single israel game! He is even the euro qualifier top scorer now!
2914  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: We are finally going to $22k on: October 07, 2019, 05:01:49 PM
Looks good, sounds good but the question is WHY? We can't reason out "its because the chart says so". There has to be a reason why the price of Bitcoin will start climbing again to $20,000. When the price of Bitcoin climbed last December 2017, there was a reason for that and one of those that are considered is stock market traders jumped into trading Cryptocurrency in the last quarter of 2017 and when they reached their target, they dumped their Bitcoins.
There's no sure reason for bitcoin price to skyrocketing... and not really necessary actually. Back in 2017 a lot of people think that moment when bitcoin price spiking is because there's some large institutions putting money in bitcoin ... and the chaos begin when people went FOMO .

It's always about the supply-demand thing when it comes to understand the cryptocurrency free market movement,  the more people know bitcoin and wanted it ... the more price will spiking... especially a bitcoin halving that would occured soon.
That's the most realistic reason backing why bitcoin will have another ATH.
2915  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA EURO 2020 Discussion Thread | Current Phase: Qualifying on: October 07, 2019, 04:17:26 PM
And the Euro qualifiers are back! Matchday 7 starts next Thursday with the following games:


(source)

Netherlands vs N.Ireland should be good game. Home team needs the win to to climb to the 2nd spot in group C, but if Northern Ireland wins, they'll be 6 pts clear in 2nd place in the same group.
But keep in mind that Netherlands still have 1 more game to play .. also I think the odds of Netherlands to win against northern Ireland is really bad low , I prefer looking for some luck come to me by placing bet for northern Ireland moneyline @17 now and @8 for the draw.

Not sure if this week we'll get entertained with those matches...
There's no big match and Actually I'm afraid making any bet on international matchest .. but I'll just try looking for a one-sided match like Belgium vs san marino and playing with handicap ..
2916  Economy / Economics / Re: Europe is against Libra. Who else? on: October 07, 2019, 03:30:11 PM
So another bad news for Libra as Paypal withdraw its support:

Quote
Payments firm PayPal has become the first company to pull out of an alliance that is trying to launch Facebook's digital currency Libra.

PayPal made the announcement in a statement on Friday, but did not specify what had prompted the decision.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-49944421

I'm sure there could be other companies that will pull out before the actual roll out.
It's just a business movement... everyone know that libra has become world attention ( in bad way ) PayPal play it safe , no wonder they pull themselves out.

It's like a mission impossible for Facebook to make their libra used legally around the world, even I'm not sure such centralized currency could bring a good impact into cryptocurrency ecosystem itself, I'll be excited to see how this drama ended .. the idea has been there for long time to use a single currency around the world , but Facebook is the only company that makes this first attempt with their huge sources.

The quits group seems will have more member soon Grin , they are too fear to taking risk supporting this libra project.
2917  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: October 07, 2019, 02:08:43 PM
City are now 8pts behind Liverpool, do we even have a title race now?
8 points clear ... there's 30 match to go we just need to wait for liverpool got slipped ... just like the other day  Grin , Gerrard oh Gerrard. Everyone now talking about how liverpool is unstoppable and the title race seems over? No of course! this is football (not soccer Grin ) things could turned around quickly unexpectedly, who knows Leicester make another shocking show? They are playing good so far, yesterday they just unlucky to have a liverpool's referee in the game Wink they deserve a draw. Also there's Chelsea who making outstanding progress every day every week , don't underestimate them .

I still believe Manchester city can catch them up in a couple matches, a good odds now for Manchester city to win the half of the season.

I see the possibility of Arsenal and Leicester city going above Manchester City more than Liverpool coming to the level of Manchester city.
Unless there are some significant player transfers in winter transfer window in January there are nearly no chances for any team in the league to overtake Liverpool.
It's not just about the number of matches left or a form of some players, it's about the team.
I think you are just an arsenal fan lol.

Everyone agree and supporting arsenal to be crowned as the legend of 4th spot , it's like more precious and prestigious than the premier league title for them Grin . Oh come on look at the odds for arsenal to win the title now even they are on third , ridiculously low. The odds come out with reasons ...

Of course it's the matter of number of matches, 3 times losing point and they'll get kicked out from the 1st spot , there's plenty of time to overtake liverpool.
2918  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why not use Exchange instead of Mixer? on: October 07, 2019, 11:23:28 AM
Most exchanges ask for email addresses or worst, KYC.
some exchanges dont require manual sign up and dont require a kyc at all . kyc are only for bigger amounts of transactions . also ,  if an exchanger ask for kyc , you can use temporary email to hide your real identity.

decentralized exchange can be a choice too if that is what you are saying. I don't know much about the transaction process of decentralized exchange but they don't ask for KYC or email address. Just don't forget to use TOR or VPN.
dex or decentralized exchange were already anonymous , so why need for tor or vpn ? though you can still use those tools if you are really conscious about your privacy or if the site is blocked on your country
Then you can't use exchange to mix your coins in case you are looking to do it in large scale .. unless of course if you only want to mix coins worth less than $1,000 or so which mixer services is still the best choice.

I do often mixing coins through an exchange... it's not as instant as what the mixer services provided and the fee itself on the mixer service for me is worth it , so it's a wong statement if you think it's better to use an exchange platform instead the mixer platform.

I have done this a lot of times and probably other people around here in this forum too , we know what's best for us.

Despite the loss, am liking the looks of Inter's three in defence. Now to see if Conte can get them back up from a shitty week.
I felt really sad at the outcome of the game, I wanted inter to win, just as i want inter to win the league.Both teams played well and deserved to win. I think this victory takes juve back to the top of the table, but I think conte and his team would really push juve till the very end, it's gonna be a ferocious title race in the seria A this season.

It's better this way, when one team dominates for so many years, it becomes boring, I hope inter don't fizzle out as time goes on.
Naaaa ah .. i know inter has a good start in the league so far until they faced juventus , that's the real test and it seems the title race still in Juventus pocket which yeah everyone don't like the way juventus dominate the serie A for long time , it's just make the serie A dead and there's no entertainment in it.

My pre-match betslip is for juventus to win both halves and I lost it but then I do make a live betting at around 60' for juventus moneyline @3.5 and at around 75' @4.4 which I won it in the end, thanks to higuain.

Inter milan lost, Napoli draw, AS Roma draw, Lazio draw ... but Atlanta win! And Atlanta on top 3 now! Any thoughts about Atlanta will making a surprise in serie A ?
