When I am over confident I make a stupid move and the result will be losing my capital fully. This always happens to me when I am playing crash. I have now stopped playing it because of my stupidity. I would always start with low bets and after a point when I am getting decent multipliers, I would suddenly place a big bet and the next thing that happens to me is that it gets crashed. It has happened to me in so many times and later on I realized that after a certain point I tend to become overconfident. This risky approach has costed me a good amount of money and for the time being I am planning to take a break from gambling.
I don't think you will lose all your capital in one stupid move. Maybe you are also maximizing your stakes? One thing I notice in gambling is that when we are about to increase our capital, the results will then change from positive to negative. It's like they are manipulative.

Well, what do we expect? That would be an easy money for us if they will only allow us to have a gameplay like that. We think we are wise but we don't know that the house is more wiser than us. Don't blame the game because it's not its fault but just try to maintain your temper and betting size and the gameplay are also going to be the same. Of course, the chance of losing is still there. So learn how to quit.

The big sad thing is that Pakistan U-19 cricket team has made it to the semi-finals by blowing away the Bangladesh U-19 cricket team. But in this match, the fans of Bangladesh U19 cricket team had the idea that by destroying Pakistan U19 cricket team, Bangladesh U19 cricket team can easily qualify for the semifinals. Bangladesh U19 cricket team bowlers were able to narrowly restrict Pakistan U19 cricket team. At that time, there were many dreams in the minds of the fans of the Bangladesh cricket team that the Bangladesh Under-19 cricket team would make it to the semi-finals. But due to the weak batting of Bangladesh 19 cricket team, that dream remained a dream.
From the start of this match Bangladesh were in well control with bowling out Pakistan at 155 was big achievement for them which give them good chance for qualification, but sadly their poor batting bring them down which is surely shameful for them Ubaid Shah and Ali Raza done good bowling which give them good success and things were badly out of the control when they lost their fifth wicket at the score of 77 after this I lost hopes for the Bangladesh because now Pakistani bowlers were in well control but Rohanat give some hopes which shattered again and at the end we have lost for the Bangladesh by just 5 runs.
343  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gamblers trickily claims they wins the bet while they never did. on: February 03, 2024, 05:53:53 PM
Just don't believe them if they claim something absurd, we're already on the digital age, I don't think that someone will be missing out on taking a picture or a footage of the winning play so if they claim that they've won this, just ask if they've got a proof or that they've won something or that they've bet on something, usually there's a ticket or a celebratory graphics with message if you've won, you can easily press the Print Screen on your keyboard or the screenshot on your phone for the proof so that's how it's going to be. It's weird to me that people do that kind of thing where they pretend about something just to have something to talk about like dude shut up if you don't have anything to say, it's more awkward once we know you're lying because we'll never believe anything that comes out of your mouth anymore.
It's even more annoying to see some people believe in almost anything they hear from someone without asking for any proof to back their statements because we live in an era where no one can be trusted and you can't expect people to be telling the truth all the time. And, when we talk about gambling, we should have more doubts when someone says they have won something big because it's not a common occurrence since only the luckiest people manage to experience that.

If someone comes to me and tells me that they've hit a jackpot or had a very big win when gambling, the very first thing I would do is say congratulations and the second thing would be to ask them to show me, and if they can't show me at least some proof, I would never believe in what they are saying.
344  Economy / Gambling / Re: My betting strategies on: February 02, 2024, 08:54:51 PM
This strategy is what we all know and have used before, and we recorded some winning and at the same time losses some times, and for sure we have to also have the understanding that, there is no working strategy in gambling that can guarantee steady winning or even repeated winning all the time be it in sports bets or any other form of gambling games.
If we talk about gambling games, there are indeed no strategies or patterns that one can use to have steady or repeated wins because it's based on luck, but when we talk about sports betting, it isn't the same scenario. I know that one might not be able to get repeated wins, but one can have a higher winning percentage than one's losing percentage if one knows what they are doing and isn't placing random bets here and there.

For that, we have to add a few lines that will serve as a caution to all and that is to always rely on luck to win the games because winning a bet sometimes goes beyond just giving the right analysis of the games to luck becoming the ultimate at some point since football is a game that is hard to predict.
We can't say that luck has no influence over sports games at all, but one thing is for sure, luck isn't the only thing one can rely on when it comes to sports betting because you can't expect a team to have a very bad track record to win against a pretty consistent team.

Trading alone is already hard so if you are profiting from your trade despite that you don’t get to finish it, then most likely you’re a wise trader. Not all are given chances to be in profits when trading, some are just trading and even wait till the end and still end up losing. So for me, there’s no need to actually finish a trade if you are already satisfied with your present profits. That’s for you to decide if you can still take the risk and finish an unpredictable trade.
Trading is not an easy thing to do in order to make a profit and if we are already in a favorable condition and we take advantage of it and this really depends on the personality of the person doing the trading whether we can still analyze the market and will be able to get bigger profits. There's no harm in continuing, but if we can't analyze well, I think it's better for us to take the profits we've earned and don't let us become greedy in trading and make wrong decisions that result in losses in the trades we make.
It's true, that trading isn't as easy as drinking water and one needs extensive knowledge and experience to gain success in trading and become an effective trader. And, it's a fact that a trader doesn't necessarily have to achieve the exact target they may have had with a specific trade and there is nothing wrong in settling down with less when you can see the chances of getting more are tiny and you might lose the profits that you can gain at that moment if you don't act quickly.

So, in situations where a trading position isn't providing a lot of profits or isn't up to your expectations but is still in profit and is turning into loss very soon, it's better for you to close that position and take the profit because there will always be such inconsistencies in trading which is completely normal.

Even if the market goes down it won't end up going up again there are many trends that most people initially dismiss. However, if you realize their true potential and are proven right bitcoin investment can earn you a fortune. We can expect the next bull run as the number of new users of cryptocurrencies hit record highs every time during the bull run. In 2024, the value of Bitcoin will fall, halving.
I don't completely understand what you are trying to say here. First, you said that the market won't end up going up again if it goes down, and then you said one can earn a fortune with Bitcoin investments if done right. You also said that the value of Bitcoin will fall in 2024 because we are going to have the halving event, now I'm confused as to why you would say that when history says the market goes up after the Bitcoin halving event.

The halving event isn't an indicator or a signal for the market to go down. I know that the cryptocurrency market is unpredictable and highly volatile, but there are certain points in each cycle where things usually happen in the same way, and the halving event is one of those times which is the reason why the whole market expects a bull run after the halving.
347  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think gamblers do retired betting gambles on: February 02, 2024, 06:01:41 PM
I don't understand why old retired people can't gamble. The most important thing is that they do not get into debt, because they do not have enough time to pay them back. And it would be even more offensive to live the rest of your life, forced to work in a job you don’t like, paying off your debt. Often, old people cannot even get a hired job to pay off the debt and they will have to pay the debt from their pension. But if an older person manages their funds well and has an upper limit on how much they can spend on gaming per month, then I don't think gaming would be a problem for them. Games may well bring him pleasure. For many older people, life is quite sad.
Wise people would make sure they have a financially stable old age for which they will work very hard when they are young and keep saving money or creating assets for their future so that they don't need to worry about finances when they grow old. Such people would have no issues with whatever they want to do because they will have funds available when they are retired and they can use that money to do anything that gives them pleasure.

People who don't save money when they can or do anything for their future but instead take loans and have a lot of debt by the time they need to retire will surely have a hard time when they are old because they can't work the same way when you are old which is why it's essential to make your young days work.
348  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Eredivisie 23/24 - discussion thread on: February 02, 2024, 02:52:31 PM
That's right. The two matches you mentioned were very intense because all four teams both needed important points in this match.

The Ajax vs PSV match is certainly an interesting match, Ajax as the host certainly has greater motivation in this match apart from wanting to reduce the point difference with AZ, they also have greater motivation to want to end PSV's unbeaten trend in the Eredivisie. Of course, this is tough for Ajax, but if you look at Ajax's current development after recovering from adversity, they could beat PSV, especially in Ajax's last three matches in a positive trend.
But I don't think Ajax will be able to win that game. I am not underestimating Ajax but currently there is not a single team that can beat PSV in the league this season. I think if Ajax can perform at their best then at least they can get a draw. Ajax is certainly motivated to become the first team to beat PSV in the league but it seems like an impossible mission.
I am not agreed with you about this with Ajax is not thinking about the win of this match even their performance against PSV is not good in last few matches with their current performance is surely one of the best which can give them good chance for the reducing points from their top opponents because in last two away matches we have PSV with one lost against Feyenoord and other one draw in Eredivisie against Utrecht so if Ajax give their best from current performance then surely they can steal the show against leaders.

If we have wins for the Ajax and Feyenoord then surely things could be more interesting in coming weeks because others will be faced more pressure and Ajax can take good advantage of this all for their chances to jump at the third spot which is currently looking tough.

West Ham host Bournemouth. I'm not sure if West Ham can win this game, Bournemouth have been playing well in recent weeks and they need points if they want to stay in the league. Even though they are not in the danger zone at the moment, possible point losses in the future could put them in trouble. I don't think West Ham will win.
In the other match of the day, Wolverhampton will host ManU at home. Both teams need points but especially the home team who haven't lost in 4 games. I don't expect ManU to win in this tough away game but anything can happen in this match. I see it as a game open to surprises.
Both teams are having good performance in last few weeks but Bournemouth suddenly having two worst matches which they want to forget first against Tottenham and then Liverpool with now going to visit West Ham is surely good for them but here they also need to give their best if they want to have some better because at home West Ham United is also good team, and they can bring surprise as well with currently they are at the 5th spot, and they also want to keep this while we have Newcastle United and few other teams are also trying to catch but if we have West Ham at his best in today match then surely they could be better and having advantage for staying here for some more weeks which will increase their moral as now they are also having UEFA Europa League matches which need more hard work and dedication from them.

A team from the Serie A can always be thought as a strong team when competing in European competitions and strange enough despite they having changed coach they have got 2 victories in their domestic league.This is very important to build up the form and to be in perfect condition now that the Europa League games will resume in February.Now only strong teams have remained and it is paramount for Roma to be in a great performance to have a chance to fight against these strong teams.
I am having no doubt about this mostly Serie A top teams are strong enough in UEFA competitions with their performance is always at the top as we have in last season three Italian teams were in all UEFA competitions finals and now again we have chances with few teams can go through but AS Roma is currently not strong enough to have any achievement like this even their change of coach is having positive impact, but their last two wins are against weaker sides which are having no mean that we can expect them doing good in Europa League as well because things are never been easy for them with their situation is also not ideal they have to improve their performance and also working on their consistency for having better results in big matches of this event.
351  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: January 31, 2024, 10:41:00 AM
It's normal to drop point, and besides that, Gladbach is not a small team to underrate, they are not just in good form this season, therefore. dropping points against them is normal and I am still confident of Leverkusen in this season's Bundesliga title.

Bayern Munich might also drop points against Gladbach because when you go through the statistics of their last five matches, you will see a lot of possibilities for Bayern to drop points because Gladbach is always a strong opponent for Bayern Munich, and now that they are looking a way to accumulate some points in order to move up, I don't think they will take it easy with Munich either.
No doubt drooping points is normal but best thing which happen to Bayer Leverkusen is they are still undefeated after 19 rounds and their lead from Bayern Munich is still 2 points which could be vital for them in coming weeks Gladbach is surely one of the biggest clubs which having troubling time with their performance, but they have done good job against leaders and steal one point which is also good for them while they are currently near the danger zone with their coming game is against another giant club Bayern Munich even their performance and record against them is also good but still they need to be better and improved because now as we are heading for the last rounds things are looking more difficult for the teams which are not in good consistency because now any bad result can bring them in more trouble which can ended into relegation zone.

Edit: Gabriel Jesus has finally break through the defense of Nottingham forest as he sneak into their defense to receive a throwing ball. A good reward for all that wonderful possessions in this match. He scored with a clean finish on the 65th minutes when the the host goal keeper was thinking that he will cross out the ball.

NFO 0-1 ARS
Yes. Arsenal pocketed 3 points with a score of 1-2. This was a perfect result for Arsenal after Jesus and Saka each scored one goal. Even though Jesus was the best player in this match, Saka was the sweetener, so Awoniyi's goal in the 89th minute did not reduce the number of points obtained.
To be honest, this match was very tense for Arsenal fans, especially since the first half was very boring. I think they will lose or draw. However, entering the second half, Arsenal were finally able to break the deadlock thanks to goals from Jesus and Saka on the counter attack.

This victory is very important for Arsenal to reduce points from Liverpool because on the other hand, Aston Villa also suffered a big defeat against Newcestile. I hope Arsenal have to keep him for the rest of the season so they can stay on track to challenge for the EPL league title.
There is no doubt this was a tense match even they have good win in last game against Crystal Palace but still due to last few worst results things needed to be settled before it's gone more down and same happen even in first half we have no action, but second was as expected and Jesus and Saka score which are good signs for them because they needed to be had their strikers in good form before big games which are coming now their next challenge is league leaders are going to visit Emirates Stadium on 4th February which will decide how this league table is going to work for the rest of this season because at the top now again we have three teams and Manchester City and Liverpool are doing better, but Arsenal now can change the tables into their favour with having win against Liverpool, but this is never been easy if they will not give their best in this game.
353  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Rate at which p2p merchant are frauding people are high - always be vigillant on: January 30, 2024, 06:52:22 PM
I always use binance p2p for trading. and always pick a trader with highest trust score. never had any problems with that.
Binance P2P platform is no exception when it comes to scammers. Remember, there are scammers on every single platform, no matter how much trusted a platform is and how secure it tends to be, these scammers will always try a way to trick you and scam you if you are not vigilant.

A different sort of scamming trick was tried on my friend a few days ago in the Binance P2P marketplace. The scammer had a buy order way higher than the market price, which would make anyone fall for it since you will get a lot more value for your money than the normal rate. So, when you place an order, the scammer will ask for your email address attached to your Binance account. I know that an experienced person would understand but a newbie wouldn't get it. So, what he does is that he creates and sends a fake email to you from Binance which says that the buyer has made the payment and the funds are kept in Binance's Escrow Wallet, lol, and the funds will be released to your bank account once you release the funds.

It's an obvious scam but someone who is new in all these things wouldn't understand, the email is designed in a way that you can't know if it's not official unless you check the receiving address which gives it all up.

Actually, it can still be done because if you look at the names Joselu and Brahim Dias, they are not new names for them and they bring back these players when needed but of course this does not mean they will bring back Benzema because seeing from what Ancelotti is doing now they will only bring players according to the needs they face.
Benzema is a good striker but that can't be said for him because with his age and the vulnerability of his legs, it's difficult to bring him back.
That's not to say that Madrid are against old players because in the end, that can be broken with Modric in the squad but for now we can see that Benzema's condition cannot be forced at Madrid for several reasons that we ourselves know are difficult to force.
I still feel that a new name will grace Madrid's attack next season and it won't be Benzema.
Real Madrid is one of the visionary clubs which never run behind players which they left once because they are having system which is producing world's best players, and they are also having ability to buy the biggest names in game while currently they are having best squad which is capable of doing anything in any condition with too many rumours about Kylian Mbappé, but these are also not going to be predictable because they are doing impressive without him which is clearly showing strong they are in quality.
Karim Benzema is having issues in Saudi League just because of this many were feeling he is coming back but most chances nothing happening like this for the Real Madrid because they are looking into future instead of going for past right now we have few rumours if he will be back in Europe then most chances he will join Chelsea or Lyon.

Currently, Real Madrid is now off loading Luka Modrić which is also spend 12 years here and now almost 38 years with impressive career is going to end new generation players are ready for taking over and doing their best in coming years.

Getafe did well to win the game last night as it can boost their moral for the difficult upcoming game against Real Madrid which they will again play at home and can be to their advantage.It surely won't be easy as a bad result from Real Madrid in this game can lead to them getting out of the title fight if they happen to not win also the next game against Girona so most likely Real Madrid is going to give it all to win this game against Getafe.
Although Getafe is not an easy opponent, it will not be the most difficult opponent for Real Madrid in the upcoming games. After this game they will have to play with Atlético and Girona in La Liga, and with Leipzig in the Champions League, so the game with Getafe must be won in any case. This game will be away, maybe it’s even for the best, because then two games with Atletico and Girona will be at the Santiago Bernabeu.
February and March are never been easy months while teams are going for the title race because things are having challenging situation and same happening with Real Madrid as they are going to start their February against Getafe then they will play against Atlético Madrid and Girona and at the last Leipzig but here we have good advantage for them as they will play both tough games at home which allow them for having some better conditions and favour to hold things as they wanted but still they have to give their best if they want to stay at the top of league table.

In coming game against Getafe things are also not easy with their last meetings are tough but as they play against Las Palmas we can expect better result in this match which will allow them to hold top spot with difference of few points.

Indian batting lineup really disappointed all the Indian fans. We all thought that India will easily chase down the target after Pope’s brilliant batting in 3rd innings. But unexpected things really happened this time. Indian team really felt the pressure without the chase master Virat Kohli. Except Rohit Sharma none has batted well. I guess Indian team will rectify these errors in the upcoming games.
In the first test match of England vs India, England team was bowled out for just 246 runs in the first innings due to their batting failure. But in the second innings, England team performed very well and set India a target of 230 runs. When India was given a target of 230 runs, we thought that India might easily win. But England team won the first test match against India by 28 runs because of their excellent bowling by England team. Congratulations to England team. India lost the first Test match against England due to batting failure in India's second innings. Indian batsmen have really given a very disappointing performance. Apart from Rohit Sharma, no other Indian batsman could bat as well in the second innings which led to India losing by 28 runs against England.
When we have England 275 for 6 in their second inning match was in India control, and they were on verge of win this first match of this series but Ollie Pope and Rehan Ahmad 64 runs partnership create foundation of England win with Hartley and Ollie Pope's partnership of 80 runs create trouble for them because chasing 230 runs is never been easy even you are playing at home and have enough quality batting lineup, so this was really impressive performance from the England in this first match of the series which create good interest for the remaining matches of this series with now India will try their best for fighting back and things will be good for the cricketing fans while they will watch these two big teams are fighting for the win in coming matches.

I know that Senegalese will be sad at this moment but I am somehow happy that they have exited this year African Cup of nation's competition. I am not an ivorian rather I am a Nigerian but I am seeing Senegal as a big threat to the success of Nigeria in this tournament that is why I was so prayerful that Senegal should be eliminated.

Now that the defending champions are out of the competition I think Nigeria is able to face the rest of the countries that are still in the tournament. But at a point I was somehow pitiful at Mane because I so much love his nature as a true African man. But then I have nothing to do because I cannot love him more than Victor osimhen.
We now have another upset with both last event's finalist are out of the event with things are looking very interesting because we have good fight from the Ivory Coast in this game, and they are able to secure their place into round of 8 with who is going to win it's really difficult to predict we have good performance from the many teams and also lack of quality from few which are not out of the event.

Now we have six teams already into next round with just two left today we are going to have first match between Morocco vs South Africa and second match between Mali vs Burkina Faso even on papers we will have Morocco and Mali for the remaining spots but in grounds from these four teams any two can jump into next round for the completing of this line-up now event is wide open for the all teams anyone can win from here after exit of two favourite teams.

Currently, Aston Villa is pretty inconsistent. So I am starting to highly doubt that they will actually be able to stay in the title race in the long run. Because the matches are only going to get harder and harder as the season progresses. And we have seen a lot of teams, a lot of elite level teams like Arsenal not being consistent, especially towards the end of the season. So that is something which can happen to any team. I do not have so much trust in Aston Villa, to be honest. At least not yet.

About Haaland, I think they should actually give him as much time as he needs to be 100% ready. Otherwise, he might have some issues which will probably get bigger in the long run. And he is one of the most important players for them. So they should take perfect care of him.
Every team which touch the top spot in Premier League have problems which hurt them badly, and they dropped as this happen in this season with Tottenham, Aston Villa, Arsenal and Manchester City so now things are interested how Liverpool will go and try to stay at the top but as we know they are having few challengeable matches which will decide how they will handle and try to stay at the top currently we have Haaland which is most important for the Manchester City facing troubling time because without his presence things are not ideal which is major concern hopefully now as we will resume Premier League in coming days all will be ok for these top teams and these will give their best for staying at the top and having one of the toughest and competitive end of their season.

Last question please forgive me, what stops them from building a coin on the block chain that'll bypass the total sum of bitcoin users, and regulate it?
Why would I use a coin created by them when I'm using Bitcoin so that I can be safe from them and their regulations? It doesn't make sense. Even though they and their financial institutions have way more users than Bitcoin, people who are using Bitcoin are mostly doing it for its decentralized nature, there is no third party between you and your money when you are using Bitcoin which isn't the case with traditional financial institutions and that is the reason why most people prefer Bitcoin.

They can't create a coin and make it decentralized because that will be useless for them just like how they are against Bitcoin because they can't control it and manipulate everything, they can't ban people from using it or hold the funds and ask for extra verification to release the funds, the list is endless.

It is called Option trading, you will not trade the actual market but bet it in relation to a specific time whether it will hold above a price or hold below it until that time lapses. Well, it is a very good way to make money with the market, but it is not so easy to find a good options broker and I stopped using the ones offered by crypto exchanges because they are nonsense, they will definitely cheat you (not scam) which is why it is not popular among traders.
That is what he said, so no need to define it. But great that you already gave the answer to what he was looking for. This is one of the variation of trading but like the others, I won't say it's good. For me, this was only similar to gambling. No wonder why we can find this on some gambling platforms.

We can do this alone, so there is no need to find a broker for this. Doing so is also safer. You should mention the name of that exchange that you don't like, so that we can avoid it. I know they are not popular but we all know the people, they are curious and likes to try new and and unpopular stuffs. This should save them from losing money.
