3401  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe NBA is rigged? on: September 30, 2020, 08:03:17 PM
I really don't think that Tim Donaghy can make it. He was on his mind-blowing creation tried to make his own NBA prediction whos gonna win and whos gonna lose the game. He's just more than an NBA manipulator, but He's not and so people can't believe this drama. What he does is truly out from reality, He can't make the ball being controlled by his hands nor they make the game from him.  Is he able to make a bet and win it is just because he has insights who's gonna win, not a thing that he made the result already before the game started?

What I like the most is your first tip. Cap is the main thing. Too many people overlook this in the pursuit of profit. It depends on the capital whether you can earn any profit at all. No capital, no profit.
Therefore, the first thing to think about is how to save capital in relation to the risks that will arise during betting.
Well, of course, you need to decide what the rates are for you. If it's just fun, have fun and don't take it seriously. If this is a business, learn to control and do not be distracted by fleeting entertainment.
People who got into addiction are those who are greedy ones. Greediness drives them to loose ends. It actually there is no problem having into gambling if it won't comprise in our financial capabilities. Some people lend money from his friends just for this, a thing that we shouldn't have to do or even a usual thing to do because this is the start of committing huge debts in the future.
3403  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is Addictive...Pay Attention to your Gambling Habit!!! on: September 29, 2020, 11:24:50 PM
There are many people who are addicted to altcoins, throw their money there and believe they will win but end up losing everything.
Okay, bad analogy, sorry.

I was addicted to freebitco.in many years ago, my luck is that I depended on my mom to earn some money, so the addiction couldn't survive inside me.
Gambling addiction is like any other drug, it can lead you to commit other crimes to support it.
At the dangerous level, committing suicide is the last exit point from this loop. The addiction has the worst forms which cause the crimes as you mentioned but controlling the daily habits can change this. If the person throwaway altcoins, using these altcoins in the gambling platform is ok until it turns out to be an empty wallet. Some gambling platforms have worthwhile promos and easily attract uncontrollable minds.
I heard that though a gambler decides to commit suicide because of money issues, huge debts that he can't able to pay for it. Suicide is an insane thing to do. I hope nobody will commit that rather relieve their addiction to their family members. It was very difficult when you're getting out of control of our mind, addiction could ruin everything. We either believe that Gamblings makes us millionaire, winning on the jackpot prize, I was thinking this before but I have noticed that it only drives me to fall into addiction.
3404  Economy / Speculation / Re: The reason bitcoin price is not stable. on: September 29, 2020, 10:52:23 PM
You should not just buy or sell bitcoin because you think its price is moving in a particular direction. Many people that trade that way has lose significant amounts of money! Bitcoin price is not made to be stable because it is a speculative asset.
Buying bitcoin simply means that you are buying risk also. People always thought that after buying Bitcoin the price will then move high which is very unfortunate to happen nor the chance is always on the possible.

@OP, you don't wonder why that the price isn't stable because that is the mean character of Bitcoin. You can't hold people to sell their Bitcoin only at a specific amount nor you can tell those buyers to do the same. Price is not a problem, in fact, that is the reason also why many people had come into crypto for this amazing trend( up and down).

Either to say Decentralize or Centralize, we can't just all find it safe and always can be trusted, not unless if we are choosing those projects that have been existed quite long with good market performance. However, it was unlikely to see how these Defi projects sprung around and I know that not all of them are fueled by the interest of the people seeing them it surge but it is just because it was drag by the hype.
3406  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs. Conor McGregor on: September 28, 2020, 11:33:58 PM
just like Mayweather vs. Mcgregor fight,this will end up a Boxer won over streetfighter .
Conor is a great fighter but not inside the boxing ring.

i will definitely go for Manny pacquiao.


And McGregor is a much more harmless than the other boxers out there who are calling Manny Pacquiao. This maybe called cherry picking on the Pacman camp but hardcore boxing fans would understand this move by the fighting senator. He has a lot of future in the Philippine politics that he may have retired for good now.

Easy fight for easy money, I don't even think that it's also harmful for Conor as definitely it will be a soft fight just to entertain the fans. I know there are still buying this fight, Boxing and UFC fans combined, that would result a bigger revenue, probably bigger than Conor vs Mayweather last fight.
What we saw with Mayweather and Conor fight before is just like what I saw if this fight will happen. We already know whos Conor and much more we know about Manny. I don't know what Conor had looking about this decision. Well, anything to speculate is all about money, not the aim to win. Anyway, it was him that would like to test how strong is Manny and might feel what others feel too.
3407  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do think about skill games? on: September 28, 2020, 11:19:12 PM
didn't know that there were such thing as skill based game in casino i tried to read your blog about it honestly it's really informative though it can be found on your casino i was wondering if there are other skill games, probably in real life casino.
What OP showed is already a picture of a skilled game in a real casino. I don't know if you have been in a casino without seeing these things around, other from these are still to come in the future. Well, I believe that this kind of game isn't just needed the skill to play but it much better to have luck as well to win the jackpot prize which is much important than having the ability alone.
3408  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Less Volatile Coins on: September 27, 2020, 11:27:40 PM
I am a newbie on this forum and I have read my posts that people complaining how they lost their fund as a result of investing on Volatile coin like BTC. Is it now advisable for newbie like me to invest on less Volatile coin like Tether or Gemini USD.
They are complaining sich a thing because, in the first place, they are investing in a thing that they never understand. Why there are a lot of people investing Bitcoin this time? Investing isn't magic, buy now, and gain profit after? No, it was not like that and sometimes it takes days, weeks, or even years to wait for us to gain more profits. Those people who suffered losses after investing Bitcoin are those you are impatient people, and they shouldn't have to complain because that is their fault also, not Bitcoin itself and the market.
3409  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why Bitcoin price are decreasing? on: September 27, 2020, 09:59:44 AM
Some analysts have previously predicted that if Bitcoin falls below $ 10,800, it will be a very dangerous signal and the possibility of a continuation of the downtrend. But nevertheless, do not forget that the instability in the foreign exchange market forces investors to treat Bitcoin as a defensive asset, as a result of which Bitcoin prices can be more stable and rise up.
And yet, we are below $10,800 (currently at 10,600 plus). I'd never find it dangerous even it lower down to $9,000. Bitcoin is the leading coin in the market and for sure it can't be ignored, investors will surely take the opportunity this declining sentiment. And I have too.
I'm not a market expert, only I have is the trust for Bitcoin, for cryptocurrency. It sometimes we fall into this kind of scheme, and somehow it is acceptable in all cases.
3410  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto gambling sites should be careful of bringing eSports in on: September 27, 2020, 08:44:29 AM
KYC could help to minimize youngsters to go gambling but the fact that not all gambling sites require such a thing, below 18 years old could gamble. They have their phone, laptop/PC, online gambling is very accessible to anyone and sites can't hold them nor to stop youngsters to gamble unless KYC is required. But that is not the case, it probably gambling site owners will allow them, they are making money from it.
3411  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: VR online casino games take gambling to the new level 🚀 on: September 25, 2020, 10:43:56 PM
Continuous development makes people more entertained and really satisfied with their wants. VR games come to the daring innovative game creation where most players wanted to experience but the cost is also high than those olds ones. And a reason that never pushes them to adopt the system. The average gamblers will surely never take this opportunity rather than to keep the genuine one.
3412  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do think about skill games? on: September 25, 2020, 02:07:07 PM
you should have fast instincts on whats in front of you to precisely do this strategy. however, skill games has better chance of winning if you know your game. because if we're talking about luck-based games, you dont have to think on this game, just go with the flow and hoping that luck will strike you. so dont expect also that you are on the winning side on this one.

If those skills games are sports betting, then we really need skill, and yes, I agree that the chance will be better than the gambling games based luck, especially if we really know those games. But sometimes, the skills games need us to learn more or gather more information to select the right method or team/player, especially if we are lack information to choose. If we want to win those games, we need to have more information from other valid sources to increase the chance to win.

There are other games that is not mainly about luck, but also skill and knowledge/experience. People also include Poker and Blackjack as one of those skill-based games, I don't know if esports is included in sports betting but it is another example. As you said it is a about gather information and putting your money into a team with a higher odds of winning, it is usually all about analyzing and experience and some luck.
Esports Betting is quite different, easy to pick which team has the potential to win, and probably have the higher odds. And winning is not possible but it should have to come up with LUCK. Do some card games require skill and knowledge as well as what you have mentioned but above all, it should also have to connect our instinct. I usually picked teams that have higher odds but still not a winning assurance, LUCK is very important.
3413  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Downfall of dia data (DeFi) on: September 24, 2020, 10:58:57 PM
Don't know what is happening at this moment. Most of defi project lost their value incredibly. Especially for dia data, the recently successful defi token, launched IEO a months ago. Then it was start increasing incredibly, ATH around at $5.13  Sep 02, 2020 (3 days ago) but its only $2.09 today Sep 05, 2020. Just decrease more than half of its value within 48hours when it added binance exchange mainwhile
Friend, don't get surprised because it happens almost all the time especially for useless projects that only it surges because they were lifted by the hypes. It pumps today and definitely, it dumps by tomorrow. It comes to the moment that not a few but many Defi projects turn back where they really are. But if this project has a working product and listed in the known exchanges with huge market volume it eventually gets back high again. I know Binance will help it out but of course, not an assurance because it still depends on the developers to attract more investors.

Thank you @Harkorede, no game today, TIME TO RELAX, enjoy the winning! Grin

Well deserve break, not only for the winners but for the losers as well.

Tomorrow there will be Lakers vs Denver again, that game 2 Denver almost got a win, but it's okay, at least they prove that they can play better than the game 1 and going forward, I am not seeing anymore that Lakers will dominate. Probably the series will end in 6 and Denver winning 2 games.

DENVER ML, still betting on it in game 3 guys?


After that game 2 buzzer beater by AD is now clear that Denver really have the capabilities to challenge the domination of Lakers.

They just needed to work from the start not allowing the Lakers to get all the confidence and make sure that they are heating up much
earlier to keep competing from the start till the end. Handicap for Denver is going to be tempting here.

I expect game 3 to be a close game, Denver can't afford to lose this game, they will not surely gonna come back anymore as 0-3, no team has ever come back in the history of basketball. I know they are making some great strategy to win in game 3, they almost had the game 2 but AD was just so clutch so credit to him.

As their coach said before, they'll take it one game at a time but this is a "must win for the Denver", so good luck to them.

Asking if Denver ML is a good bet, I would completely say YES.

What can you say about this guys?

Celtics' Marcus Smart reportedly explodes at teammates in locker room after Game 2 loss to Heat



You can see how disappointed he is, but blaming teammates is not good, they might get sweep on this series.

The frustrations came out, going 0-2 is no joke. They had a very comfortable lead after the half time but they allowed the Heat to come back, where are their defense? it looks like they aren't playing with good chemistry as some looks not paying attention with their man to man defense.

I like how the heat came back on this one, I think they already expose the weakness of the Celtics Team.

Now, I think we will see  Heat vs Nuggets NBA Finals. Grin

GREAT NEWS!

Gordon Hayward injury update: Celtics star doubtful for Game 2 vs. Heat, expected back during series



This series should be fun, Celtics needed Hayward as Miami Heat is a better team compared to the teams they beat in the last 2 rounds.
What do you think, how can Hayward help the team?

I am just curious, who is the leader of the Celtics team?

but now the price of btc is in the 9900-10000 $ range I am not sure it looks like it will fall any time soon, just preparing for a deeper decline, whatever it is I will still hold my coins because I am sure it will improve afterwards, don't want to repeat mistakes the same sells when it's min above 30%.
my prediction October will be the beginning of the rise again.

you call that volatility, it's expected, maybe $12,000 is just the price we can reach this year, but even though the price will dump, I don't see any reason to panic, instead buying it is the right decision now that the economy is in trouble, bitcoin should still remain as the best store of value for our money.

if it falls, you call it normal, but you are not wise if you will not buy when it fall as eventually it will recover.

We've seen it many times, so we have to get used to it and it should not shaken our faith in bitcoin and crypto in general.


I know it is best to buy when the market is down but because there is no money I buy nothing.
because I need my money to survive. ohh this is indeed difficult when there is a good opportunity you cannot invest because of money constraints, after all those who have a lot of money will take big profits, I hate to admit it but that's the reality.

You can't do anything about that unless you will take a higher risk by borrowing money to invest which is not advisable.
Don't invest what you can't afford as they say.

bitcoin resurrection time is still long, which is next year and the possibility of closing the end of this year may be that bitcoin will come back up and break the $ 12K and stay long. not as usual that will fall back but near the end of the year bitcoin will gain momentum to keep moving up until next year where the peak of bitcoin will occur.


I hope so, or at least I get my capital back,because my asset now min 50%, but its slowly recovery in these 3 day.

Hard to guarantee that bitcoin will rise since it's very unpredictable, but you can stay optimistic and must be ready to take profit every time you see an opportunity to do it.

There is a risk in gambling, actually a high risk, so it's just normal to be careful.

You advise is not new, but thanks for making this advise again so everyone will be reminded that they don't only win, they could lose as well.
