Unpredictable indeed. Super teams are even struggling to win over the underrated teams. Also, newly drafted players has odd skillsets e.g. 7' up player banging threes. I became not so active with watching basketball when Lebron created a superteam because it made the league boring. But this year's roster is something so I'm now making time to watch games of my prospects and ofcourse to make money out of it before playoffs end. Jazz is quite having a good start as well as pheonix and these teams weren't expected by many fans for sure. Things might change; still a long way in the first place so I'm taking advantage of this period to observe teams I'm betting for this season.

But as of the moment, I guess bucks would make it to the finals, still standing strong.

No signs still at the present. The market still is having a hard time to recover and now that this year is about to end, I guess recovery won't happen this year; let us hope that there will be a bullish run next year.

We cannot assume that same thing will happen again and again. Indeed this technology has a huge potential and is probably the future of currencies but expecting for the exact occurence of something because such thing happened before would be a danger to new investors out there. Some people are desperate with their money; investing everything not considereing nature of market volatility. Since we are not yet still on a bullish trend, chances could give them loss. Indeed just holding won't yield to permanent loss but for how long can those kind of investors endure the market situation? Let us be a guide to the new ones, it won't cost us that much.

There will be small price rollbacks but things won't be the same as before. Are there anything which has a constant value in the market? I think there's none; things being sold to consumers are either depreciating or increasing in terms of market value, as years go by. The demand especially to necessities keeps on increasing because of the continuous growth to our population. Not unless market supply will be larger than the demand, that would be the only way to bring back the price to its lower state.

In my country, I am hopeless with what I have stated above simply because there are no strong support from the government. For example; Agricultural sector. They don't support their farmers by alloting them budget to buy new materials and to make farming and harvesting easier which would obviously result to better market supply. Same thing applies with other industries so to answer OP's question, I really think it would be impossible.

Probably just to share and learn knowledge about this game. Bingo I think is a boring game but it just becomes entertaining because of the interactions between players (not sure if same thing goes in your country while playing Bingo, but in my area players tend to joke on it and to socialize while playing). Usually, Bingo is being played secretly if the local government won't see its importance relative to an event (such as if someone died (yeah quite weird culture), or if it is taxed or registered or commercialized).

However, I just tend to watch my friends while they are playing this game because I'm just not into it; still boring on my end. It's just entertaining everytime the announcer is connecting different things just to announce a number. If you're curious, here's a link you may consider reading :https://nichegamer.com/why-there-are-so-many-fans-of-online-bingo-in-the-philippines/

It's a fun game tho' according to the majority.

There are few gambling tokens wherein market prices gone up. Most of the time, the market value of gambling token is either stable or falling. Stable because its supply si continuously circulating because it id a token being used in a gambling platform, demand won't be that high because on the usual, the token supply is huge. To fall on the other hand has a tendency especially if the gambling platform itself did not manage to attract the attention of many gamblers. Much better if you would directly invest to the project itself thru 'shares' if you are really looking for profit from investing in gambling related projects such as with what I have tried doing (earned some profit but BTC affected the profit. But I won't point finger to other factors, I also made some errors, but the idea is there already). Here's the thread (not as updated as before, quite busy these days but I'll follow it up maybe next week or month):

Feel free to thow your opinions as well.

I'm not sure if it is really possible, but I saw a movie wherein the staff who is in charge to run the game for the players has a button to move the wheel as well as the ball without the players' notice. If this really happens on land based casino or even with online platforms, that would be unfair. I'm not into slots and roulettes, but because of these tendencies, I'm not into 'pure luck' gambling games. In sportsbetting, there is also a tendency for result manipulation depending on the fighters or teams. Money rules and money talks, right? Since we cannot easily determined if the house is manipulating the game, be observant. As other players suggest, if you often lose, try playing on other platform to somehow calibrate your losses.

But that's another story to tell. We are in gambling dection so what could we expect? People here are into this activity and are just sharing informations and possibilities about their experiences and thoughts about the games they are playing.


Luck itself is not constant. Things tend to change, that's what gambling is about.

Proofs will save you here and if you don't you havr no other choice but to wait and follow up this concern until they got tired, but more likely, as long as they are not convinced of this winning instance, they won't release the fund. But what if they cannot do much to help you or release this fund? I'm not sure but small details I think may help, try looking at logs in your browser, then if possible, check their logs of their players if it would match (this is just an option or suggestion but I'm not sure if it is feasible between a casino and player because it might cross the line of privacy).

You only need to your claim. This would be a problem if you have notthing to support it.


Is it still possible ti freeze it even if it has been days after that date he won? like to recover it. Huge prize on my end, but will it be enough for the casino to do such thing? 'coz most of the time Whale gamblers are the ones who recieve special treatment such as this concern, from a gambling establishment or gambling platform. Hope OP's dite is not like that and is responsible for their customers. Due process for this one is a must.

Why did you allow him to move it then? But if it is really his fault(perhaps you are against his/her decision but he/dhe insisted still) then he/she owe you $10k not $350 because that is the amount you've even if it could have possibly won. You friend will only owe you $350k if that is the amount of the bet he intervened. That's that simple, you cannot put value into an amount especially with money. If I would be on your shoe I won't be mad if he will give back my money as is. But ofcourse I'd regret what happened and might feel quite frustrated. I also had a saying that "if ut is for you, then that'd for you". What if the other eay around happened right? would you still be mad?

Another scenario: His/her bet won. How much would you ask him? Will it be $10k only? The answer would also be the point of OP's question.

Does their ads aim to help players to avoid gambling or playing in the first place? Ofcourse not. They are advertising their casimo in order to get or attract more players into it,obviously they would use persuasive contents on their ads and promotions.Not to totally quit using internet and social media sites. Just avoid browsing on platforms related to gambling site , also there are ad blockers which might somehow help to minimize appearances of ads in general. If a player really want to stop, finding an alternative activity to kill time such as engaging to sports, traveling and such would be the best way because your attention will br redirected to something which is not related with the thing you are addicted to. Also it will indeed depend on one's discipline and eagerness to really quit into something, likewise with vices.

If you have the capital, simply do a research and engage to entrepreneurship or have your own business. If you are lacking resources, you can first make your own by applying for a job, saving, then wait for that right time to do so. No need to rush; check on your circumstances and capabilities to kknow which should be prioritized. We don't have the same life so what worked for me, might not or also work for you. It always depend on factors which might affect you.
Entrepreneurs are not focused with technology alone. There are industries an individual may choose from. So I guess if it is solving problems of the world, which is the issue, Entrepreneurs could indeed help but they won't be the main source of help you are looking for.

I was hoping for Stake.com as well.
Maybe it is still on its development and as it goes on, more good gambling platforms would be listed  It is solely for gambling strategies in the first place, we'd see as the progress continues.

But personally, I still cannot believe about these strategies which could work especially that calculator. I still see those instances wherein they've used a particular method to come up a win, as coinsidence. One factor is because I'm often in sportsbetting wherein I could make my own analogy(a kind of strategy as well) but not focused with the way of betting but rather guessing who's gonna win. Especially with martingale wherein it is a risky strategy on my end because even if you'd have a higher chance of getting back what you've lost, there is also a high chance that your losses could be doubled. A friend of mine have mentioned it before but I did not oay attention, so maybe I need to ask him again regarding these strategies.

Indeed I just saw the topic which talks about history of baccarat earlier, and I have no problem with that 'coz things like these are interesting.

Sort of. Dice games, roulette, and slots rely solely with one's luck while baccarat regards strategy most of the time but luck still has a role with the cards. This is gambling industry and luck will always be a factor, just don't rely on it too much because it can maximize the risks involved. Card games is a bit tricky especially on live casinos wherein even gestures are important to somehow 'bluff' the ither players with your decision. I'm not quite sure if same thing happens in online gambling because ut is on a virtual setting.

Depends on the management as well as the hype for their rematch. Money talks, as they like to say. If audiences will really push it, things might change and that includes fighters' plan. Same thing goes with rematch of other fighters or in other fighting sports; a player (often the winner) could just move on and seek for the next contender but if the result won't satisfy the fans, teams of each fighter could negotiate to feed that demand. And I believe same idea implies on choosing their next opponent especially if they are on the same weight category, or if their names happened to be on mainstream and on the same level and in some instances 'ties', on their names.

There will be people to bet especially those who are a die hard fans of Inoue. He is popular enough to have gamblers on his back no matter what. On my end I'd go with betting on Naoya even if I'm not a die hard fan of him, I was just taking advantage of the odds. But to be safe I won't put that nuch money for this fight simply because I am still not aware of their full potential (would watch clips of both fighters a week before the fight so I can conclude which one) but I'd go for now with the crowd favorite. In sports, inspite of the difference between popularity and biases, things could be changed once the bell rings and as long as fighters are still up on their feet. Luck? that would work but in this sport, instincts and talents are more dominant.

Isn't it too early?
I'm not from U.S. but I've read an article that Biden and Harris would run for re-election. But as news are showing, his term approval rate is low and is continuously falling on his 12th month as a president of U.S. I cannot really tell. What I am seeing at this moment from my country's end us that their currency is still strong unlike ours wherein its value continues to fall or to be behind other currencies right after the election was finished. Wether Kanye would continue his vision of running as president for people of U.S or not, I just hope U.S. won't suffer what we are currently experiencing in my country.  So with regards on betting, I'd probably not bet on this one since I'm not yet aware of the choices as well as odds. I might ask my friends in U.S. if my interests gets high.

Poirier vs Chandler would be exciting and some articles said that it could be the 'fight' of this year. Both has advantages over another but I'd probably go with Dustin. Well, I cannot clearly vision his edge over iron mike but I have a good feeling on this one for him. Both has 'heat' at the present to win this fight but I',d bias experience. Also poirier is a cleaner fighter (just in my pov). But if ever iron mike would win this one, I'd still be happy as a fan but not as a gambler LOL. My basis on my bias with this fight is hunger. Dustin's name became more popular when he settled the score between him and McGregor. Given that his recent fight was a lost, it might give him a bigger drive to "reclaim" the throne. But as I've said, whoever wins would be fine. Bith are great fighters in the first place, I'm gonna surely enjoy this one.

At first I though OP was just pretending that he's not aware of what casino is wherein it is being used on sample sentences at school, casual conversations(sometimes), games,  and such 'coz it is a generic term. But as I have read this topic, ut gave me an idea that maybe he/she is just unaware of it.

But going back, there are things an individual is not necessary to learn such as vices, bad things, and I'll add gambling. It is for me an activity whih has risks and we should not encourage people to engage into such activity because it might out them in danger unless they had the initiative to do so. If it is just learning what a word means then that just fine but if it will open up one's curiousity, I think it won't be necessary.

Wel, good thing if you really mabaged to atleast earn from other platform to compensate with your losses in the casino. But one thing I know is that if something is forced;most of the time the result won't be good. If I'm on your shoe, I'll take a rest for the meantime and return once I'm calm simply because it is still gambling and no matter how strong your drive is, if you',re unlucky, you won't be able to take your losses back, there's even a higher tendency that you will again withraw from your bank if your 'revenge money' is already lost. Gambler's fallacy, I guess. But if it would work for you, you're free to do so. That is your money in the first place.
Unfortunately, not all people has that 'joy' in gambling because we have different motivations why we are here in this industry and I bet most people here are aiming for that profit more than for entertainment. That's normal, just be sure to not be too hoked into it.

I think it would be much better if OP have made it inline with gambling or made it related into it. I do get the idea; sportsbetting and watching the game on on live but if it is not directly for this section, things won't work out as planned even if the motive is good.

Also many gamblers,nowadays, are just into online gambling. I think it is only on sports and esports betting wherein people are note solely for the profit from which team they brt for, but also for personal enjoyment. If OP made bet on that game, attaching his/her bet with those pictures he captured would more make this topic lively and more relevant. But I do like the idea still of actually watching the game than just making online bets and waiting for the result. Would try this one as well since I am into sports gambling.

I agree that it won't contribute to one's strategies of winning any gambling game but one thing is for sure; those players who loves to play Baccarat will enjoy reading topics of such. Let us accept it, most of us are gambling because of money and note merely for enjoyment but for sure there are people who are playing and betting to kill time or simply, they actually find joy when playing these kind of games duch as baccarat. Therefore, knowing some things about what they are enjoying could have meaning for them such as to enjoy it more or maybe not;depends on how will they take or reflect to its origin. I have read different topics here in this forum about history of particular games, which do pops up out of nowhere. It seem repeating sometimes but I just condered reader,s' different time of engagement in this forum wherein some won't be able to read the first one, so maybe the 2nd related topic would come across his time of browsing in this section.
