I don't have such a bad collection of shirts myself, only problem is I tend to use them a lot and for heavy duty stuff so my very first Watford shirts are more or less unrecognisable haha. GL to all you collectors Wink
~

I've got a pretty nice collection myself: 3 t-shirts and 2 scarves. One scarf I was wearing during the last winter, and I can now say, it's comfortable, warm, and, it looks so nice that it fits any outfit.

And this t-shirt by Hummel,



I'm using it for jogging and working out, and I can definitely say, it is the best t-shirt I've ever had. And I don't mean the looks, it looks amazing, of course, but I mean how you feel in it. It was specifically designed for heavy physical activities, and they have succeeded in that goal, absolutely.

It's a great news that a New Kit from Southampton has arrived. Thanks for telling us, Steve!

Best of luck to all of you guys, who haven't won it yet!

~ But if you play this game in real life, you can influence the outcome, depending on your skills. If you played such game in an online casino, it would be a 100% luck based game, like dice or plinko games, or similar. I'm not saying that this game, or color game, shouldn't be implemented, though. Surely, such games will find their audience among luck based games lovers.

Yes, you're right, but I think the developers could devise a way to use the force with which the hoop is propelled and that helps to place or not on the stick, it's something like the Angry Birds game, where there was a kind of strength meter and this can lead to more accuracy in the shot, I had one of those games in real life and inside it was water, but many factors influenced it, because if you moved, everything moved and helped to score or take out the hoops, it could also be considered that level of difficulty for an online casino, where instead of one moving it, the casino makes it move and thus it is more difficult to hit the hoop.

To be honest, I'm not sure about the possibility of adding such a thing to the game. Are there online games where your physical force is a factor? I think there are no such games online because they can be easily exploited by malicious attackers.

Yes, you can see the screenshot.

I'm not deposit, and only playing with the bonus money they gave from Exclusive Promotion. So, If people wondering do you need to stay active ? nope, it's just a lucky things rolling.

Don't hope to much, just check once every weeks on Friday.

Wow, man, that's really an interesting info!

I play slots on Duelbits.com and make sports bets there once in a while. Now I'm going to be checking this tab



more often, because, who knows maybe $5 from Duelbits are waiting for me there? Smiley

Btw, you received the promo codes via email, right? I'm wondering, if you just logged on on the site, could you find those codes somewhere?

if your getting lottery tickets from free rolls is disabled, and you have just 2 WoF spins per day on average, there are some weeks when you have zero lottery tickets.
This is possible, but it's very unlikely.
Each time you play WOF, you have around 33.4% chance to win lottery tickets.
So, the chance to not win any lottery ticket each time you spin the wheel is around 66.6%.

Assuming you play WOF, 2 times a day and 14 times in a week, the chance to not win any lottery ticket in a week is only around 0.338%.

0.66614 = 0.00338

Yes, it is unlikely if we take only one week, but take 30 weeks, and it is not that unlikely anymore, right? I know that each week is independent from all the previous weeks, the wheel has no memory of other spins and stuff, but here's the thing: although the current US Powerball has 292,201,338 possible combinations, and thus it is very unlikely for the holder of just one ticket to win the Jackpot, all the holders together somehow manage to win it once in a while. In fact, since Powerball launched 30 years ago, 393 tickets have won Jackpots. In short, what's unlikely from the first try is not that unlikely with many tries. Smiley

~ My playing is with little amounts and I do that mainly to replace watching movies and all that. A kind of another hobby if I must say, yet I must try not to get addicted.

If you are playing only with little amounts, and at the same time thinking of not getting addicted, I think you are safe, my friend. It's the other way around with people vulnerable to gambling addiction: being already addicted, they think they are far from it.

Also, imo, you can't get an idea of what gambling is by just watching movies and reading articles about it. You need to have your own experience, and playing is with little amounts is the best way of getting it.
3027  Economy / Economics / Re: What define your success, "money, fame or achievement"? on: September 08, 2022, 11:37:40 AM
~ Money cannot buy satisfaction and happiness. ~

It depends on what brings you satisfaction and happiness. For example, having a lot of money, you can pay for education of poor but talanted people, and some of them can achieve great success in one field or another. Will that make you happy?

In short, if contributing to society in a positive way makes you happy, then money can buy satisfaction and happiness.

Also, I disagree with this statement of yours, "Being successful is being happy and satisfied with ones fully achieved dreams." Your dreams can be different in different periods of time. Your childhood dreams may seem stupid today, and achieving them can make your life worse. And the things you are dreaming of now may make you shudder ten years later.

Since a few years ago, when I need an answer I ask Google, and mostly satisfied with the results. Look at this one, for instance:



I have nothing more to add, they said it all. Smiley

~ Why would we believe that his lessons are better than watching some players on youtube for free?
~

Watching some of the best contemporary poker players on YouTube is the best way to learn how to play poker, imo. Only don't watch games older than 3-4 years because the style can be outdated. Daniel Negreanu, for example, is not bluffing these days as he used to in the past. He's playing more cautiously now, and it pays off for him, while people following his older style are losing in general, and keep wondering why. The answer is, different times have different strategies that are successful.

What's good about starting very low is that these's a high probability of you going up and up in the future. Smiley

I particularly didn't do so well this game round too, I ended up with just 7.5 points.

I'm not yet so worried about the leaderboard to be honest and I don't even pay much details into it, neither do I let the leaderboard cloud my judgements, I know all that would change as the season progresses and all users in the prize positions begin to get a bit conserved and there are even lesser picks for probable upset. I'm currently more focused on chasing well above average points for each game week.

Well, you are succeeding in that, mate. Smiley After moving 3 positions down



you are still on the 17th place. That's impressive, for me at least, who is on the 42nd place after moving 5 positions up. What pleases me is that we have traveled only through 6 rounds out of our 38 rounds long journey. Much can change within the next 2-3 rounds, let alone all of them.

~ At the end of the day, real competition is good for the space. Whilst it might be hard to imagine for those of you who have been gambling and posting here since 2016 or earlier, we are still extremely early in terms of the evolution of this industry. Exciting things are happening within tech, crypto and the internet as a whole, and it seems like that hasn't fully converted to gambling just yet - a big reason is due to the lack of actual competition. Competition forces companies to either change or risk being left behind. Those that build, keep up and grow; those that copy slowly die out. We'll soon see which is which.~

Cloning toppers  in the industry is not something invented by crypto gambling sites. Just look at the several examples that Google is giving us:



Not all those that copy others are dying out, as you can see from the list above. If you are honest with your customers and the functionality of your site is on the high level, you have every chance of being successful, but being at least slightly different wouldn't hurt, of course.
3031  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you play Slots? (long sessions / jumper / focussed) on: September 07, 2022, 04:28:08 PM
2 words: Maximum Concentration. When I gamble, I try to distract myself from the rest of the world by focusing completely on the game. I like to feel the increasing level of concentration, as I take this process extremely seriously.

This is a great approach to playing slots, imo. This way you won't increase your chances of winning, but if you use slots to relax, to forget about your daily concerns, to  pump some dopamine into your brain, focusing completely on the game is what you should try to do.

:0

Sounds not good. Why do you need "maximum concentration" in the game where everything is depend on luck? This doesn't matter are you concentrated or not, because outcome is just a mathematical probability. You can't force it through your skills or concentration.

That's why I said, "This way you won't increase your chances of winning". Some people use slots to get away from daily worries for a little while. Imo, it's a good practice, if not overused. Running away from your daily problems isn't a good thing, if you are trying to do it all the time, but occasionally it can add strength to deal with those problems.

Thats a 4,968.85×! 😮

Congrats king @FossyGFX 👑

Yes, that's an Ultra Big Win indeed!



5k multiplier is something I'm still working on to achieve, having 940x as my all time record.

I would not win $100k even with hitting it, because the most I bet at once is $1, but I wouldn't mind winning $5k, if you ask me. Smiley

But i agree with you that anyway it is really big win for all these men. The same time much more men just lost these several thousands usd. These wins often used by casino to attract new gamblers and big part of them think that he can be this winner. And lose all their money.
You are right, not even the calculation is comparable to the biggest win even if someone has gambled for 5 years, the simple calculation above has even proven that he only spent +$54k for 5 years, so the above win is very rare even in the future the list of records above remains and impossible to be surpassed.

For 50 years, mate, not five, but fifty. I showed in my calculation above that even buying a $3 ticket every single day for 50 years in a row, and losing all that money, would constitute an amount much lower than a Jackpot.

What I meant was that a rhetoric such as "he has probably lost more money before he won that prize" isn't suitable for Jackpot winners, or very rarely suitable anyway.

Even after all this time, Bitcoin is going strong and remains the dominant player in the crypto niche. Everything else comes and goes but bitcoin remains a force to reckon with. Its creator(s) had something else in mind rather than getting rich over night and on the expense of the community, which remains the case with all altcoins. The oldest and most successful truly decentralized crypto.

Yes, it's true, and I wish all people knew this. It's unimaginable how many sh*tcoin scamming projects would be prevented, if people really knew the main difference between BTC and any other newly appeared crypto that "works the same or even better", that has "lower transaction fees and works much faster". And the difference is that BTC is more decentralized than any of them by a wide margin.
3035  Economy / Economics / Re: "Cities of the future," built from scratch on: September 07, 2022, 12:02:04 PM

I personally feel sorry that this project has failed. I don't think the organizers were planning to scam investors, or something. I think they really had good intentions, but, like so many others, they were a bit ahead of their time. Maybe in 20 years cities like Akon City will be successfully built. I certainly hope so, anyway.

Mao had good intentions too and probably truly believed in them, but everyone knows what some of the consequences have been.
Building a futuristic city at cost of billions for a few hundred thousand people when millions don't have water and electricity from my point of view it's not a good idea, it's not even a good plan, it's straight from the books on machiavellianism.

First off, I agree regarding Mao, he was as evil as Hitler and Stalin, in my opinion today, although I almost worshiped the guy when I was a teenager. But I must say, I disagree with the rest. I think when a project at cost of billions is on, many thousands of poor families benefit from it. They are getting jobs that wouldn't be there otherwise. And when such a city is built and construction jobs are mostly over, it is still good, economically-wise, for the people around to have such a city in their vicinity.

My theory is that something was indeed wrong with his documents, and he has nothing to say in his defense.

Again, I know so little about MBit casino so that I can't be sure about their fairness, and thus I'm still waiting for more comments from the OP and MBit's official representative here.

I am familiar with Peter McCormack of course, I’ve followed him for a long time. He’s a really interesting guy & long term bitcoin advocate.

I don’t listen to too many podcasts. I am mostly a bitcoin only investor & long term HODLER. There are some guys to follow on Twitter who are great sources of knowledge. My favourite bitcoin related guys to follow are:

That’s just a start, some good people to follow.

The best reading material is The Bitcoin Standard written by Saifedean Ammous.
I think it’s really important to educate ourselves because without Satoshi & the most impressive innovation of the last century (bitcoin) we wouldn’t be here.

This is a great list of accounts to follow on twitter! I didn't know about many of them, and I was surprized by the number of followers some of them have. I followed most of them straight away because, yeah, I too think that it's very important to educate ourselves.

I would like to add two more links

https://twitter.com/aantonop?lang=en

https://twitter.com/IvanOnTech?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor

which, imo, are also pretty informative.
