Always has been. Web 3 was introduced as a decentralized sort of web-browser thingy, but I've seen absolutely zero with regard to its development. Any info that was actually about it was just a bunch of general gibberish that people spout to arouse interest, but no real solid development about it. It's a marketing buzzword only at this point, they probably just use it so that it's applied for their SEO's or something like that in general.

Generally speaking, around 90% of the casino claiming to be web 3, are actually not even close to decentralization or web 3. But since everyone's talking about the future is Web 3.0, the casinos have started using it in order to attract gamblers to their site.

Also pretty sure web3 was before or around NFT's rise? I reckon it's AI's next really.

Don't tell me that we will soon be seeing AI casino's bombardment in the near future  Cheesy

Why on earth the gambling casinos don't market those things they have and not try to fool the people by using these fancy words like AI, NFT, Web 3.0 etc  Huh

These days, watching David Warner bat to be boring rather than entertaining. In today's match against MI, Captain Warner once again produced a rusty knock, scoring 51 runs off 47 balls.

Not a fair total, as DC getting bowled out for 172 in 19.4 overs. However, thanks to Axar Patel's blistering knock, that helps to post a respectable total. Let's see if DC's bowlers will be able to successfully defend the total or not.

Cant believe its warner who has scored a fifty on 46 balls and no six in his entire innings. Thanks to Axar Patel blistering 50 runs towards the end of innings. In reply MI are very nicely placed as Mumbai need 56 runs in 42 balls with lots of batting to come. Rohit Sharma is leading from the front and so far he has scored 58 runs on 35 balls that include 4 sixes. The match is very much in favor of MI and they will taste there first victory tonight.

If only these guys could have scored quickly and made 10 to 15 more runs, it would have been impossible for the Mumbai Indians to chase this score. Big names lie David Warner is not doing anything good for the Delhi Capitals and that is the reason that they have still not managed to taste a single victory in this year's IPL and their points are still Zero until this point.

On the other hand, when we see Mumbai Indians, their opener and captain Rohit Sharma lead from the front and score 65 runs in only 45 balls. Compare this with David Warner's 51 runs in 47 balls and you will know the difference.

First of all, why would you be convincing people to invest in Bitcoin?

I feel the same as you. I tried to convince many people to buy bitcoin in early days. Now I feel that you can only teach them about bitcoin and after that they will have to decide for themselves. Honestly many people do not understand bitcoin enough to trust their money into this system. Still everyone should know for themselves.

This is the safest method to promote bitcoins and to avoid the blames of the people once the market is currently experiencing volatility which most of the newbies panic when they see it. The only thing you can help them with is to share with them some knowledge you have learned these past few years from this community especially how to prevent themselves from getting scammed from these multiple tactics by crooks and scammers with their Ponzi Schemes. Other than that is up to them to decide because it's really hard to even for ourselves when it comes to investment, especially with money.

I totally agree with these, sceptical persons on bitcoin investing will always found arguments just to make them don't go forward with the decision of investing into it. The only thing that we can do is just educate them with your first hand experience and let them know all the advantages and disadvantages of investing into it. They should first know what they are entering to. So that, the final decision would be coming from them, and we have no way and any rights to force them to buy when it's against their understanding and assessment. It is their money to invest so they have all the right to be sceptical, so you don't have to suggest right away a decision to invest, just present all the positive and negative facts about it. It is really a tough decision when money is involved since it may be part of your hard earned money so we all should be cautious on every decision that we do and always do your own analysis based on different information regarding it.

I just do not get the reason as why we need to convince a sceptical person to buy bitcoin when he do not have any willingness to buy bitcoin. I would never force a sceptical person to get into bitcoin on my advice. The simple reason being that if he will invest in Bitcoin on my advice and if bitcoin is dumped after his purchase he will be after me that i am responsible for his loss or his portfolio is down only because of me.

Delhi Capitals have performed very well but they have no points in the points table. And Mumbai Indians also have no points in the points table so whoever wins today will add two points. So both teams will try a lot to win while Delhi Capitals have given a target of 173 runs to Mumbai Indians. Mumbai Indians have experienced batsmen so chances of victory are expected but Delhi Capitals have Mustafizur Rahman and many more experienced bowling. So it is not possible to say which team will win today's game, so we have to watch the game till the end.


Mumbai Indians needed two of the last ball and David did it by a great dive and thus making Mumbai Indian's first win in this IPL. This was one of those matches which we just cannot afford to miss. What a thriller experience we had.

Starting the match Delhi Capitals scored 172 runs with the help of David Warner and Axar Patel half centuries. I would not say that Delhi Capitals batted very well but they just scored a reasonably good total which could have been defended.
2925  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How much effort should one put into Bitcoin investments on: April 11, 2023, 03:56:47 PM
Bitcoin investments is a very promising investment which although seems to be of long term returns.most persons are not patient enough to wait till the value of Bitcoins rise significantly .
Soo in general how much should one invest in Bitcoin should it be "how much you can easily invest without stress " or "as much as you can invest at all cost"

I do not understand what do you mean by an effort to invest in bitcoin ?
If you have extra money, you may invest in bitcoin for long term and if you do not have capital then, you should first raise capital and then invest in bitcoin. Buying Bitcoin from kitchen money or taking a loan is not the right way to invest in Bitcoin.

Although I am aware it isn't a do or die affair

Don't consider bitcoin investment as a do or die thing, otherwise, you will fall into FOMO and may invest all in at one point. Doing DCA is a very good method if you want to get into bitcoin at different prices.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru VS Lucknow Super Giants

I am very excited about today's match between Bengaluru vs LSG. This match is expected to be very competitive. Because both teams are in very good form. Despite the unfortunate loss against Chennai, the LSG team won easily against Hyderabad and Delhi. Their performance was very good.
On the other hand, Bengaluru's performance is not stable. But their squad is very strong. They have several world-class batsmen in their squad. My prediction for this match is that both teams will be able to score more than 180. And I am willing to bet on Bengaluru to win.

I guess that Royal Challengers Bangalore did a good thing by not losing many wickets and scoring 152 runs with the loss of one wicket only. However, i think that they need to push this score to 200 runs as otherwise, it will be no use that the team saved wickets but was unable to capitalize on it at the end.

Still, four overs left for Bangalore to score as many runs as possible. Remember that Lucknow Super Giants have a good batting line up to chase any score under 200.
2927  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Indian Premier League #IPL on: April 10, 2023, 10:57:46 AM
It was a very boring match. Punjab's batsmen looked completely aimless in this match. No other batsman can play better than Shikhar Dhawan. After winning the first two matches, this performance was not expected from Punjab's batsmen. The performance of the batsmen as well as the bowlers was poor. However, it was not possible to win on this pitch with such a low target. Still, if Punjab's bowlers put in a good performance, we might have had a chance to enjoy a competitive match. We have seen a completely one-sided match. It was just a waste of time.

Look like the teams which have lost the initial matches are now coming back to business. I wonder if Mumbai Indians and Delhi teams can also get their first wins in their next matches.

Today's match will be played between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Lucknow Super Giants. I was looking at the odds at stake.com and found that RCB is slightly favorite with 1.84 odds while LSG has 1.90 odds. I think the odds suggest that both teams are of equal strength and you may bet on your favorite team. Both the teams have lost one match each.

I just visited your site and found that there are only three categories of sports betting, that is Soccer, basketball and E-sports ?
Do you plan to introduce other sports betting too specially cricket?

Also i see Ploygon and tron chain listed but not active right now ?
2929  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Indian Premier League #IPL on: April 10, 2023, 07:07:17 AM
Yesterday's both matches were worth watching. Although, Punjab vs Hyderabad wasn't nail-biting as prior, Shikhar Dhawan's one man army was worth it. SRH had done poor in first two matches, yesterday's win must have provided them much needed confidence.

Hope to see Delhi making comeback as well.

I would call Sunrisers Hyderabad to did upset to the Punjab Kings. The Punjab Kings batted first and made only 143 runs. These runs could have been a lot less if Shikhar Dhawan did not play the 99 runs not out innings. Think for a moment that he alone scores 99 runs and the rest of the Punjab Kings team scored only 44 runs.

Sunrisers Hyderabad did not let Punjab Kings batsmen to settle down and took wickets at constant intervals. Also, Hyderabad chased this small target by losing only 2 wickets hence making sure they win their first game in this IPL.
2930  Economy / Gambling / Re: Past Experiences with histakes.io ? on: April 10, 2023, 06:40:09 AM
I played on histakes.io before and I am almost certain that I heard about them from a ANN thread on this forum, so I cannot see why people are doubting the site so much. I will take some time and look for it, but the "look" of the site might be very similar to other sites.

In any way.. I am glad you got back all of your money and that the site honored your withdrawal. We see a lot of the smaller sites struggling to payout large withdrawals quickly..... but it might be because they do bulk extraction from cold storage to protect their bankroll.
I don't blame those that are doubting this casino, as you can see many people are saying that this is the first time they will hear the name Histake.io, it shows that many people care only about the present popular casinos like stake.com and dual bits, and honestly, this is the right thing to do, no one wants to use a casino that many don't know anything about, yes it does not make Histake a scam online casino but it's less popular it seems, I also have not heard about Histake before, this is my first time hearing this name.

Even if Histake has an ANn on the forum, if it's less active and nothing interesting is going on about the project people will lose interest, constant community engagement through ANN is very important.

If histake had an ANN on this forum, things would have been different altogether. First of all, no one would have said that they hear the name of this casino for the first time because everyone would have know about the casino. Secondly, if the casino were honest, people would have blamed the OP that it must have been OP mistake that he is having trouble at the casino while rest of the gamblers having no issues. Also in case, it was already known as a scam casino, people would have told OP why he played at that casino when it was a known scam site.

But now, since we do not know about the histake casino, we cannot give the right verdict as to whether it is a fault at the part of the player or the casino really scammed him  Huh

Can we expect another one for may or maybe only june?
Am expecting them to launch a summer themed art contest sometime next month or the month after that in the forum since they usually host those quite regularly which is why you might not have to wait long.
Roobet is following every season, so we can expect more art contest this year and yes Summer theme might be one of their choices for this year. Let’s just wait for the result of current contest as many are already waiting for this, while waiting for the new contest better to think now for a possible theme that you will create so you can have a lot of time to prepare.
I think this art contest will always be an icon of roobet casino in this forum because what I have seen is that no casino holds the same event as roobet, after all this idea is only for art lovers I as an art lover can only see and cannot participate in this contest because I don't have art making skills but can enjoy art, I still want to see other contests in the future

Every casino has different ways to market its casino and roobet has this unique way of conducting art competitions.  The artist really gets this to show their skills here in Roobet's contest. Perhaps other casinos might follow them, we never know.

Another thing that i always wanted to know if the art submitted by the people who get the prizes, do those become the propriety of Roobet.com ?

Never watched such a match in my lifetime. During the 17th over match got into the control of Gujarat Titans as Rashid Khan made his hat trick wicket. Yash Dayal destroyed everything with his last over. None could've expected such a  performance from Rinku at the final over. In the last five balls, five sixes required and Rinku Singh did it with style. 29 runs required in the last over and Umesh Yadav made a single and 28 runs left to be scored. Rinku Singh made it and reached 207 at the end of 20 overs.

Bowling from Yash Dayal is really bad, because to any batsmen a bowler should not allow to bat 30 runs in the last five balls. Finally what Venkatesh contributed at the beginning of the match turned useful.

I can't believe what I just saw. At one point Rashid khan took 3 wickets hattrick and at that point the match become completely in control of the
Gujarat Titans and Kolkata Knight Riders fans could not think that they could win from there on in. They needed 5 sixes in last 5 bowls and won the game for the KKR. That were just unbelievable scenes.

Yash Dayal must be killing himself on how he gave 5 sixes in the last final decisive over and ruin all the hard work done by Gujarat Titans earlier.
On the other hand, Rinku Singh becomes the hero for his team KKR after doing the impossible.
 
2933  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Indian Premier League #IPL on: April 09, 2023, 01:09:37 PM
Today's match is expected to be tough because Gujarat is batting and they are the favorite team in Gujarat. in this match GGT seems to have an advantage. In my opinion, Gujarat needs to set a tough score target that would create a lot of excitement for KKR. If we look at the live score Gujarat has made 142 runs in 15.4 overs and they have lost only three wickets, so it might be a little difficult now that Manoher is out and there are only two overs left. However Shankar is playing well, and if he stays until the end  they might be able to set a target of 180 runs which would be a tough one for KKR. But anything can happen during the match and KKR has a good batting response as well so there might be a chance of a turnaround.
True, brother! The Gujrat Titans have set a reasonable goal of 204 runs for today's game, which makes it quite intriguing. Kolkata Knight Riders can potentially succeed in reaching this goal because they have a good batting lineup. The KKR batters have so far produced 43 runs in 6 overs while losing 2 wickets demonstrating how challenging it will be to reach the mark. However, since this is cricket everything is possible! Let's see what happens next after a highly intriguing match up to this far.

No doubt Gujarat Titans made a good score of 204 runs and special thanks to Vijay Shankar who scored 63 runs in only 24 balls but Kolkata Knight Riders are still in the game with the score 128 for only two wickets down. They have the platform built from where they can chase this score but it won't be an easy task against Rashid khan and other Gujarat Titans bowlers.

Around 77 runs are needed now in the remaining seven overs. A lot depends upon the current pair more importantly who is not out at 60 runs.
Anyways since the target is too big, one or two good low-score overs can mean a game over by KKR.
2934  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: April 09, 2023, 11:21:07 AM
After winning the toss against Kolkata, Gujarat Titans are batting. So far Gujarat Titans have collected 115 runs for 2 wickets with 13 overs to play.  

However, Kolkata Knight Riders did not include Jason Roy in today's squad even though Kolkata bought English opener Jason Roy instead of Shakib Al Hasan. Maybe based on the performance of today's match, Kolkata Knight Riders can make Jason Roy square in the next match.
 Another good news for Kolkata is that the only Test match between Bangladesh and Ireland is already over and Liton Das is now available. And maybe he will join Kolkata Knight Riders camp after today's match. If Liton Kumar Das joins the camp of Kolkata Knight Riders, the batting lineup of Kolkata Knight Riders will be strengthened. If everything goes well, maybe Liton Kumar Das will open the next match along with Rahmanullah Gurbaz. Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Liton Kumar Das, and Jason Roy are undoubtedly the best batting line-up of Kolkata Knight Riders.

Gujarat Titans are looking comfortable right now and have scored 124 runs with 3 wickets down. They still have 6 overs remaining, which means that they can easily push the score to 200 runs and if they manage to score 200+ runs, i guess it will be hard for Kolkata Knight Riders to chase this score.

Sudharsan is batting at 43 in only 29 balls and is looking threatening at the moment for KKR. Ahmedabad stadium is ready to witness a high scoring match if Kolkata Knight Riders went to chase this score.   Smiley
2935  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Indian Premier League #IPL on: April 09, 2023, 07:08:00 AM
In the first match between Delhi Capitals and Rajasthan Royals I predicted the match to be a win for Delhi Capitals because of its previous loss against Gujarat Titans which could've made them plan and execute things in a better way and win the match. Nothing happened good, and in the second match for some reason I thought CSK to win the match as both the teams are equally strong. In that match Mumbai Indians failed to make good runs, atleast it should've made 180+ runs. The target looked easy and the CSK players were quite confident.

I am hoping to see some good action in today's IPL matches. Since its Sunday, we are going to have two matches being played today.

The first match will be played between Gujarat Titans and Kolkata Knight Riders. The Gujarat Titans have won all two of their previous matches and hence they are likely to be favorites for this match. Anyhow Kolkata Knight Riders has played two and one of their two matches.

In the other match today, Sunrisers Hyderabad will take on Punjab Kings. Sunrisers Hyderabad hasn't won any of the matches and hence they desperately need a win tonight. On the other hand, Punjab Kings has won all of its matches and can be considered as a favorite to win today.

My only sin is being profitable.
Being profitable is not a sin or it should not be considered as a sin.
There are people who won many bets and they are still active playing at sports bet sites. If gambling casino start to ban every winner from thier site, soon people will start giving negative feedback for that sites.
There might be something else which you are doing unintentionally and getting your accounts locked.

I was wondering how often OP Gamble's or does it mean that gambling is the only work he does and puts all efforts, energy and focus on so as to win big and earn a living. If then it is obvious that the casinos OP has identified with has taken note of OP game pattern and would definitely tell when OP is on their platform so therefore it would be very difficult for OP to play with theta same pattern but only if OP change game pattern which I think would be very difficult for OP to do.

The issue of OP to have defaulted the casino in one way or another I do not really think that is the issue  because I read a comment here where a poster said that casino do restrict account and that seems to fin too often and I think that is a big challenge and threat to them hence their actions against OP.

I don't think the casino should have a problem is any person gambles 24/7 on their site. They will rather appreciate that person who spend more time on their site and at the same time wager more. Casino's knows that the more the people will gamble on their site, the more they will lose.

I wonder if OP is doing anything which is not allowed, maybe using a VPN or using multiple accounts and betting on matches ? We can only speculate, OP knows what is he doing wrong.

2938  Economy / Gambling / Re: My list of good crypto casinos on: April 08, 2023, 11:35:10 PM
To find a trusted casino on this forum may be quite easy, but what is difficult is controlling yourself not to be emotional and greedy. That is the most difficult thing for gamblers to do when betting.
Once upon a time there was a professional gambler who could control himself in everything and entered one of the trusted casinos, But that day the gambler had a bad day getting a losing streak that could not be avoided.
Finally the gambler will definitely get emotional and angry and then turn greedy to chase defeat.
This is the most difficult for gamblers to find a place of perfect self-control, although it is very easy to find a trusted casino that has a good reputation and of course lots of bonuses, it's very easy.
The solution to controlling yourself from emotions in gambling is to limit the funds that are brought to bets, so if you set a limit on the use of funds then you will not bet above the loss of that limit. If we realize gambling is not an activity for the opportunity to get rich then you will not position gambling for passive income. However, I realize that the material above is difficult to apply when gamblers are emotional from losing streaks and they hope that in the next bet they can recover their losses by increasing the bet high, and finally suffer a total loss of all funds.

It's easy to say to set aside funds for gambling and not invest more than you can afford to lose but in reality, when we gamble, emotions take control over us and we usually get greedy and think why not put more funds and get more profits? As soon as we take this step, we usually lose the next game which makes us experience a big loss.  Sad

First we need to control our emotions and after that a good list of casino might be helpful for us  Smiley
2939  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Indian Premier League #IPL on: April 08, 2023, 11:16:46 PM
I was expecting this match to be very close and go till the last ball but unfortunately couldn't see such a match, however I think CSK was a better all round team today, saw a sort of unexpected version of rahane. Surprisingly even Mumbai is playing very bad this time. Especially Sky being out of form, that middle order looks so average. I thought SKY would be a key factor this time for Mumbai but it's not really going to be so i think. Also without Archer even Mumbai's bowling looks so average.
Today we have another bore day in IPL as both matches were one-sided Rajasthan started aggressively and not allowed Delhi to have anything positive with three loses from three matches after conceding 199 runs their batsmen fail to have anything for reaching this target and give Rajasthan second win from their three matches after this we have second match where we have one of the best t20 players but sadly these all are also failed to give solid performance.

Now MI also concede second defeat from their two matches fans were expecting some entertaining matches while two best teams were facing each other but right now momentum is completely in favor of GT, LSG and PBK for staying at the top.

Both of these results were as expected and even if you had looked at the odds of for these matches, these suggested the same results. Though i also thought that the matches may be more close ones, but not to be.

In the match between  CSK and MI, the Mumbai Indians never looked comfortable in their batting. They kept on losing the wickets on regular intervals ad this prevented them for making a big score. Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan gave a bit of a start to the MI team, but later batsmen just did not stay on the wicket to make any considerable score. As a result, they made only 157 runs which was never going to be enough.
2940  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How honest and transparent are casinos? on: April 08, 2023, 05:13:56 AM
Not sure if they are legit or truly giving it away but the problem is that they are gathering players from this style and yes there are almost every gambling site gives this kind of information and luring.
how I wonder that would be the actual reaction of each players that they think being fooled on that way, because for me there are no assurance if this is right and true.
so don't fall into promises instead make sure you are dealing with honest site and not just to lure and run .
Every business uses some marketing technique to attract customers, it can involve bonuses, giveaways, trials, and the list goes on. Now, the customer that joins that business needs to make sure that they get what they were promised before joining, and if they get that, they wouldn't have any issues whether the company or the project is paying others or not.

I think casinos with a good reputation don't really have anything to prove since everyone knows that they do pay the bonuses, etc. that they promise but the platforms that are relatively new in the market are probably questioned for not being honest enough with their customers.

Well, i can only say one thing here. With dishonesty, the casino may gain few gamblers but in the long term they will lose the players and their business cannot survive and grow
On the other hand, if the casino is honest, the gamblers will be retained, they won't look for a new better casino and hence it will be good for the long term business.

Now it's up to the casinos how they want to operate and be successful in a world where there is a lot of competition. If a gambling casino is found to be dishonest, I am afraid gamblers will leave the casino forever, and it's hard to regain the trust of the casino.
