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.
2922  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why Choose Lottery Instead Of Anything Else? on: October 06, 2019, 03:23:52 PM
Stories like these are what encourage people more to do the lottery. Although the chances of winning are like one in a million, the reward is definitely attractive to make someone bet continuously and consistently. The lottery is not the problem but the addiction that comes with it. There are others who sacrifice their resources to gamble, prejudicing their priorities in their family or at work.
It is somewhat weird for me that many people are still gambling in lottery even they know already that their chances of winning is very close to zero. Yes the reward makes it attractive but the question is do you have enough money to get it? Some who are addicted to gambling will borrow some money from their companions just to gamble which is very bad Sad.

This is sad but it is true.

I've experienced this in the past.

Lotteries are not that cheap but also, the money you are spending, in the long run, can really make you regret that you spend that much money into gambling. I just hope a lot of people would realize this.
Then don't count it all lol , can you imagine if you count the cost of your daily foods since you born? Or at least count how much it cost if you save the money that you spend on foods since 5 years ago?
Let's say $20 daily x 30 = $600 monthly!
$600 x 60 months = $36,000! You have spent $36,000 in the last 5 years for your foods.

if you count things like this then yeah it would always looks  like a huge amount but come on! You can't really do this. If you have spend the money on whatever it is especially gambling... don't think too much , if you lost it .. move on! With this way spending money looking for luck in lottery would becone much better entertainment.

There's shouldn't be any regret , it could be your boomerang to attack you back.

Brighton and Tottenham is about to kick off.
Tottenham to win and I see Kane to score. Guess why? 🤪

Talking about Liverpool match against Leicester - I am looking forward to a straight win for LFC. 2 - 1 for Liverpool would be nice.

I went for Tottenham to win 2-1 in our pool, that’s not looking so good now. Brighton lead 2-0 & Lloris suffered a terrible arm injury trying to stop the 1st goal going in. He was stretchered from the field with an oxygen mask, clearly in considerable pain. Looks like a bad arm break, search Lloris on Twitter to see it.
Crazy week for tottenham, can't imagine how frustrating they are ... conceded 10 goals within a couple days! I would really love to make a bet later in the next Tottenham match ... they can't get another losses again and over again , next Tottenham match is against Watford which is struggling to avoid relegation zone , wanna make an allin bets for Tottenham to not losing this one? This is interesting 😁

Now Liverpool vs Leicester .. I wish the fox make some surprises , at least hold them draw ... otherwise liverpool is really unstoppable and having their best start of the season with winning all of their 7 games , 8 with this match .. I don't like it but I do love the odds for any team who can beat them in this situation  Grin

Regarding defense, I agree that it is important for Barcelona to evaluate what has happened.

The problem in Barcelona's defense does not include the four man wall alone. It is rather a team problem. The midfielders and wing forwards okay very important roles in the defensive shape of any team. Poor trackbacks and closing of spaces down the middle would leave the defense line exposed time and again.

They are likely to concede in any game against a side with a decent attack.
Any team playing with possession football like barcelona should have a strong midfielders who has extra stamina to cover the back everytime there's a quick counter attack ... and in my eye Barcelona midfielders especially bosquets is really slow in making transition from attacking to defending, just look at how many times Barcelona left behind this season? A lot of times! That's serious problem for them but a blessing for a bettor  Grin considering they always make a good comeback!

Did you know how much the odds for barcelona to win inter when they lost 0-1 at the HT ? It's delicious @4.2 !!

Did anybody placed live betting for them?
It was really an entertaining week for champions league, 52 goals in two days!!!
2926  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread on: October 02, 2019, 05:01:08 PM
As a result .. you can see it's one of the worst start of the season for real madrid , I would gladly to bet against the majority who will pick real madrid to win ...
How about picking club brugge to get a draw at bernabeu ? I can smell a frustrating match tonight .
More extreme pick .. the away team to win at the first half and get draw at the full time.

Ufff... I hope you did place a bet where your thoughts have hit the nail - chapeau for such a prediction either way!!! Cheesy

For Bayern Munich I'd like to pick bayern -3.5 or -2.5 , Tottenham in the couple of matches is sucks.

Oha, what a desaster for Tottenham. I have to admit that I didn´t expect anything close to that.



Congratulations to you for your incredible predictions - sure you are not a time-traveller? Wink
Grin  Grin  Grin

The odds for draw full time I've got @7
The odds for HT/FT club brugge/draw I've got @22

It was a wonderful night , I get used to bet against majority so this is just normal. In the last two weeks I lost a lot and get recovered with this one , this cycle happened to me for years.
Poor real madrid especially the snake thibaut courtois , as expected it's another frustration game for them , they continue playing with old game style which 'vulnerable' with only a single counter attack they are fall apart.

Just like real madrid .. tottenham is a trash. I missed the opportunity to pick bayern -3.5 unfortunately. Cheers!

However tnight I'll be off making any bets , that's what I always doing whenever I lost a lot and then got recovered, chill for a while and just watching my team Chelsea playing.

For prediction purpose ...
I'll go for barcelona to win both halves against inter
And benfica to win against zenit
Of course chelsea ! I fear my team can't keep the clean sheet which if I do bet I'll go for chelsea clean sheet NO , HT draw and chelsea win at FT.
2927  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will it be good for bitcoin if it will be regulated by the Goverment's on: October 02, 2019, 02:20:58 PM
Regulation will only bring sense of security for the investors and yes it will help the price of bitcoin to grow as many people will rely on it now to invest, and regulation will also give them the assurance that government have supported the cryptocurrency, but to an extent, regulation will defeat the objective of cryptocurrency, as in the true decentralization of bitcoin.

All these issue of anonymity will be erased and I am not sure that people will be able to use it as currency again, because there will not be any difference between it and the normal fiat system that we have been using that is fully decentralized, but since for now, we are just using the cryptocurrency for making money and trading, regulation will be good for us as it will invite more people.
I think every country with its government have been working on this .. to regulate bitcoin and any other cryptocurrency to protect their citizen from what they called as a high risk and dangerous thing. Is it work? Still in progress and research? To regulate the whole cryptocurrency space it's impossible , but to regulate a business that involved in cryptocurrency such as exchange regulation... ico regulation etc it's really possible and has a lot of benefit.

I'm not sure actually what really op mean with these 'bitcoin regulated by government' , one thing that I know ... cryptocurrency would always be like this no matter how they try to regulate the whole thing. It's wild .
2928  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Binance Notice of Removal of Trading Pairs on: October 01, 2019, 09:42:42 PM
for what i understood they will only delist the pair not the coin right?

Correct, most of the removals are stablecoin markets. Bad sign for USDC, PAX, and TUSD. Tether continues to dominate.

It's a bit weird seeing them remove BTC base pairs (for BTT, DENT, WIN) but it looks like every coin mentioned will still have some listing on Binance.
They just want to focus on trading volume and liquidity for better trading pairs, rather than having to split them into many different trading pairs. This will not affect that project.
I've got similar answer when I was attending the binance meetup few months ago .. it's indeed they want a better quality market volume and instead having too much pair with those new stable coins, they choose usdt as the main focus.

I don't know if they have some 'under table' deal with tether ltd.  I won't make any wild speculation here, I don't want to Grin

It's also confusing for the newcomers when there a lot of similar usd stable coin pairs like usdt, tusd, usdc etc. Not really effective to trade with such low volume.. as the volume is separated and for me personally it's hard to take an opportunity to make some profit when there's a low volume.

And so on .. I'll pick against the odds!
For Bayern Munich I'd like to pick bayern -3.5 or -2.5 , Tottenham in the couple of matches is sucks.
Zidane is totally being unreasonable and as a seasoned player himself,  I don't think he should be behaving in such a manner,  it's not a secret that he dislikes the Welshman but his personal feelings shouldn't be a matter when it comes to the performance of the club and Bale is one of the best players in the current Madrid squad.
It's happening!! Real madrid are 0-1 behind  Grin , there's no better feeling when your huge odds are on the track ... 20 minutes to go for the betslip to turn green ..

Anyways ... bale is not one of the best player in real madrid ... he is simply the best player in the squad at the moment!! everyone is struggle in the squad but he is the one who shining in my opinion.
zidane is out of mind , bale and james left out and there's no better choice in the bench , that's the price of making controversial decision.
2930  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread on: October 01, 2019, 06:55:37 AM
I am going to bet for Bayern Munchen in this match.
Bayern barely managed to win against the worst team in the Bundesliga last saturday so, we might be in for a surprise tomorrow, who knows...Still, best of luck.

Zidane dropped Bale & James for upcoming clash agaisnt Club Brugge. Good news is Isco and Marcelo are back after injury.
"Good news"? As a Real Madrid fan I'll say that this is by far the worst news I've read this month  Undecided Zidane just dropped our two best players so far this season just to have an ex-footballer like Isco on the team...That's actually very alarming.
What a drama between bale and zidane since the pre-season ... zidane was in a toubled relationship with bale and speak loudly to the press and public that he want bale to leave immediately,  but now here both of them in awkward position especially for zidane who need him a lot considering hazard injury makes he has no impact yet so far and luka jovic performance didn't pleased zidane.

As a result .. you can see it's one of the worst start of the season for real madrid , I would gladly to bet against the majority who will pick real madrid to win ...

There will be conflict of interest here bud, I hope it ends 1 - 1 so that I can the full 3 points in the prediction pool. However, I wish you good luck, even though it might cost me  Cool
Make sense LOL
Now the reality is after the goal Arsenal seems to busy defending the attacks from Man Utd. From last 20 minutes they are doing really good. If they get one more goal then I would not surprise at all.
It's been quite a while since arsenal last win at old Trafford in the league... yeah there's a meme says the last time arsenal won over Manchester United at old Trafford... ole was in the Manchester  united squad back in 2006.

We're not surprised at all with this result ... it's been predicted will be a close game with 1 goal margin or a draw and it's happened... both teams now stay where they belong ... 4 for arsenal and 10 for Manchester United in the EPL standings  Grin .

No offense united fans  Cheesy
2932  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can we really have fast transactions like the XRP? on: September 30, 2019, 09:09:14 AM
I think it can be possible by doing some tweaks and updates on blockchain itself or updating some old stuff handling bitcoin transactions pretty sure thay may help in making bitcoin transaction a bit faster or even be instant just like Xrp.If xrp team achieved it why not bitcoin can right
Hurr Durr I don't understand different technologies. Like I said ripple is a centralized shitcoin utilized by fuck all, it's got a large market cap because they internally create tons at a time and don't push the supply out, it's all fabricated bullshit. Where Bitcoin is a true decentralized proof of work system with a limit cap. If you start changing things the block time can't be 10 minutes and your 21 million coin amount will be distributed early and then you'll have a negative effect on mining for fees.
Yupp the xrp distribution system is fucked just like fiat which is hurting cryptocurrency principle about how it supposed to be run decentralized. I will avoid comparing to xrp but xlm instead.

They launched the live net and lightning network beta last year which it's very much in development... we can't expect much but yeah i wish i could always send money through cryptocurrency without waiting any confirmation.

Let's see what xlm can do about this .
2933  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Buy now or wait for Bitcoin? on: September 30, 2019, 08:22:23 AM
Everybody dreams of buying from low and selling from high. However, it is almost impossible to achieve this within full limits. If you believe in Bitcoin, you should buy it maybe not always but at least at prices that you think are relatively low and wait for it to rise. If you want to make short-term profits, you should search the forum for topics like margin or daily trade. Good luck.
How about continue buying everytime it's falling down ... you'll just collect the rewards later which of course you need to be patient and looking for another unexpected skyrocketing price just like in 2016-2017 and 2018-2019 .. you know bitcoin always move up like a rocket so it's realistic!

Aand It's indeed not a financial advice , you should looking for elsewhere if you want to. But here's the thing ... bitcoin is something that I personally believed as a really long time investment more than real estate.

So I won't bother with any kind market situation... I'll just buy more when I think it's on discount and of course if I have some spare money to put in  Grin
2934  Economy / Economics / Re: Financial crisis 2.0 - What will happen to bitcoin in the next crisis? on: September 29, 2019, 06:54:14 PM
the possibility of cryptocurrency price movements in the future will have a downward movement in prices because this may be influenced by the world economic crisis to be more terrible, many do not trust digital currencies anymore and many people who want to save their assets without having to use digital currencies again.
If there is a economic crisis world wide people will sell off the assets that will have direct implication to their total asset and will look for assets that are not controlled by any government as these crises are a result of bad policies by these politicians and BTCitcoin is an asset which is decentralized and can be trusted than any other investment during recession. Other than these where do people invest during recession, no investment is safe during a recession Tongue.
These days everyone seems consider everything overpriced ... stocks, indices include cryptocurrencies etc. consider it as a bubble and then start to relate this to the last financial crisis that occurred 11 years ago, i don't think this has a direct relation.

People just looking for an excuse on what's happening right now and they found that the financial crisis 2.0 is the one that fit with the current condition which I personally tend to disagree.

There might several huge financial problem such as china vs US trade war causing any financial market collapses... free fall etc. Yet we're not experiencing it right now or got some signs of it? No. Bitcoin itself would remain unpredictable wild.
2935  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: September 29, 2019, 06:24:12 PM
Just wondering...  Why did Juventus go for Sarri and not Conte?  Conte managed there a few years ago and was successful.  And it's starting to look like he's the better guy for them in hindsight imho.

Conte left Juventus in a bad relationship, after few days on the preseason meeting. He was whining about the market.

He said at that time " You can't go eat on 100€ restaurants if you have only 10€ on your pocket" (about Champions league).
Juventus took Allegri, and with the team already done, he went on the Final of the Champions League vs Barcelona.

He got BBBC Pirlo Pogba Vidal Tevez at that time, btw.
That's correct.. and I'm not sure if the next match of inter milan vs Juventus (next week) would be a perfect revenge for conte to juventus who let him down since he is juventus legend who played around 13 years for the club.

Anyways... ac milan vs fiorentina coming next in few minutes , I'd go add some more bets from my yesterday betslip on fiorentina moneyline... I'll go for half time draw ... or a halftime / full time draw/ draw to cover my fiorentina moneyline Cheesy . Also I will expect a very low numbers of corner , under 7.5 or 8.5 corners looking good.

Aaand ribery on the starting line up , he's old but getting good.

2936  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can Bitcoin Make it back to $20k ? on: September 28, 2019, 06:20:15 PM


When the gold and oil goes back, there's a chance. I don't know the mere explanation regarding this but still hoping that bitcoin will increase this october. I thought bitcoin will go up when BAKKT is up but what's happening now?



I'm sure they are relating each other .. the fact that my associates ( 2 out of 4 ) who put more than $100k in bitcoin withdrawing themselves to grab some profit opportunity in stocks since few months ago , any chance most people around the world did the same thing? I guess so, bitcoin is indeed a free market that nobody knows what exactly causing all of these drops.

At least that's the nearest evidence that I've got .

$20k this year isn't impossible but realistically I'm afraid it won't happened.

I just received it and it's stated ..

I got it too, or rather 6 of them in the short span of around 20 minutes. My guess is on Bitcasino.io being hacked somehow with the hacker trying to scam people by offering them free Bitcoin/Ethereum as this kind of "investment" makes no sense for Bitcasino. Was the address is your email also 19tj29CzDNntm8axEtqNP84YLgmLra48wy? <-- likely scam address, don't send

Email headers look valid.
Now that's interesting...
19tj29CzDNntm8axEtqNP84YLgmLra48wy i thought it was my bitcasino.io deposit address that's why i censored it

And this ethereum address 0x53B48Fa8c831135a6C21d88833DD89A2A1700790

Pukki this guy is on beast mode! Can't stop scoring against big clubs like liverpool, chelsea and Manchester city ... but if you look at the last 4 matches which 3 of them a mediocre/ small clubs like west ham, Crawley and Burnley... he failed to score and the team lost the game.

Norwich aren't able to score in away games so far in EPL while on other hand Crystal Palace is defensively doing well in home so will be ahrd for Norwich to score.

Is the hype stopped already now? Let's see ... I don't like putting a bet on goal scorer side , but it seems people getting attracted these days especially when fj holding an event to predict the goal scorers.

You don't get something like that to participate for free very often. Prize money is enticing tho plus its not like you have to go through and select 10 out of 10 goal scorers to win the main prize.
I'm not watching Norwich playing as Chelsea is my priority  Grin ... as predicted before norwich is sucks at away game , this is their fourth away game yet failed to score again, not sure what's wrong with them.

However finally kepa got his first clean sheet this season after 9 matches in all competitions , gosh my heart beating fast everytime the opponent approaching Chelsea's penalty area idk .. still have a doubt on Christensen and tomori duo.

Everton vs Manchester city now live , gabriel jesus just scored at 24' ...

Bearish sentiment is developing beautifully. It's like night and day vs. when we were trading in the $10,000s! People are obviously getting pretty scared. I'm getting a little scared myself! This is good. It means we're probably closer to the bottom than we think. It always feels darkest before the dawn.

Remember in December 2018 when people were expecting $1K? Well $3K might be the new $1K. Wink
Well now I'm exciting than ever ... holding bitcoin for long time already and looking for buying more on discount right now till the dip! Who else with me? Thinking and move against the market trends trigger my adrenaline  Grin ... I've got no problem to see the market crashed even worse , ready to fill in my basket full of fresh bitcoins!

I expect nothing in bitcoin but a really long long time investment ...

I tend to agree with Pompliano who think that bitcoin is world's best performing asset class over past 10 years ..

Here's why :

2010: 6˘
2011: $4
2012 $10
2013: $100
2014: $400
2015: $200
2016: $600
2017: $4,000
2018: $6,000
2019: $8,000

2020 ? You tell me.
