In several countries this has happened with the banks. When such thing happen people look for the loop holes and the alternate way to buy bitcoin. Even in my country people were with fear of buying bitcoin, because the government hasn't given any precise information whether people are free to use or it is banned. Where there is will, there is way. This is the reality with using bitcoin.

Already few countries have planned and developed their own cryptocurrency. The usage isn't that big, and some countries ststed the digital usage of banking as cryptocurrency. When one use the government developed or a bank owned cryptocurrency it is same as using the banking services at the moment. Based on this I find people won't show big interest over government backed cryptocurrency than bitcoin.

Finally the match between RCB and KKR is postponed because the players from the KKR camp test positive but i am not sure how that happened as i thought they were in a bubble throughout the tournament and it is interesting to see how the BCCI will deal with the issue if more players starts to test positive and how many matches they will be extending or will they be forced to stop the tournament and continue at a later time.

The foreign players will be affected badly as the flights are suspended and some countries has banned even citizens from India and if the BCCI plans to pause the tournament they will be stuck in India until everything is sorted.

I was expecting something like this. They can't just lockup 2,000 people and then do 24x7 surveillance. At least one or two individuals will get tired of the isolation inside the bubble and go out for some adventure. The same thing happened with the PSL as well. And members from multiple franchises have now tested positive for CoVID 19 (CSK and KKR), which means that the infection is spreading inside the bubble. I don't think that the BCCI now has any option other than to postpone the tournament.
As of now the today's match has got postponed. Maybe the next step will be the postpone of the league. Already few players have left the league for health reasons. Ashwin is one among them, and in a tweet Ashwin's wife had mentioned of her family members ten of the tested positive for covid-19. The spread isn't under control, through any means this can happen and has happened.

Whenever I get into gambling my heart pounds like anything, whether it is a win or it is a loss. When it is a win my mind enjoys it, but the fear of losing on the further rolls make my heart pound high. This is the scenario with which I'm gambling, and for sure this is gonna cause some medical complications in the long run.

Have you guys experienced any loss/win out of the issue with internet connectivity. I've mentioned about wins/losses, but mostly people get affected negatively when there is connectivity issues. I personally believe that the internet connection is also a reason with our gambling wins. Here it is about casino games and not sports betting.

Most of the time I gamble using the mobile device. The connectivity speed varies between locations and I've encountered with the rolls taking more time as well as the the rollers moving within the bar with sudden visibility. When I check the provably fair functioning, it does right. But, my mind has a thinking our loss is due to the internet connection.

Does any of you have similar experience or thinking.

Yes internet connectivity varies from places to places. In our area, I knew someone who is addicted to an online gambling. If I will be rating the the speed of the internet in our area from 1 to 10 (10 is the highest), I say I will be giving you 4. Yes, very poor connection but I've never heard her blame internet connection so I think it does not affect her winnings and losses. I am not sure on any other games since she only play one kind of game every time she is bored. By the way, she plays through her mobile phone. I've never seen her used her laptop on playing. Aside from her any other gamer on our area does not want online game.
Internet connectivity plays important thing when it comes to the animation. Based on the animation will be the respond speed of the website. When we check with the fair functioning it'll be perfect, but the delay over the animated outcome gives a feel of losing through the lack of internet connectivity.

so this mean @stuuna admin stake.com and primedice scamer because he not answear me about my 3000 doge coin

Play - Lose - Accuse the Scam, LOL
Come on, you don't have enough evidence.
Stop the nonsense and accept the fact that you make the defeat itself

You won't get your doge again because you've played and lost
He is not in a state of understanding the losses. Everyone feels the same when losing, some easily get out of it while few can't accept it. This happens as a result of using the living fund into gambling. They might be in a hard situation and that's the reason they claim it scam and ask for a refund as their mind knew well they've lost and can't plead to get it back.

Oh boy what a game !! Power hitting all through out the game, it was mammoth total and no one was expecting Mumbai to chase down this total successfully after 3 quick wickets but damn Pollard stole the victory from the CSK. Super Saturday indeed !!


The mammoth totally is being stolen by the mammoth Kieron Pollard. Look at his confidence at the end over, he waited for the right ball. Also end over should've been bowled better by Lungi Ngidi. The first ball is a dot as Pollard didn't run. Second ball is a good yorker and it went for four, rest all were fulltoss. He took those balls easier. The pressure over the bowler were clearly felt in this innings.

This is nice to hear, stopping your gambling addiction is a process and it is one that takes very long, but as you said it all starts with a decision, the addicted gambler needs to realize how much he is damaging himself and start the process of healing himself, it is not easy at all and the temptation is always going to be there but it can be overcome by a strong desire to stop gambling, unfortunately just as there are many that can get out of a gambling addiction there are also cases of people unable to do this and they end up losing way more than their money as their families eventually leave them as they cannot deal with their addiction anymore.

It seems to me that such psychological addictions as gambling initially infects those people who have nothing special to value (family, career, other interesting occupation). Gambling is not a chemical addiction and if at a certain moment a person cannot stop for the sake of his family, then most likely he initially did not particularly value it.
This is true, because I've been asked by my girl why can't you value us. Atleast thinking of our family why don't you get out of gambling. Never and ever think gambling as a fun factor, because the after effects will cause massive loss in terms of financial and psychologically. Even now at times I feel blank thinking of my gambling activities.

yes, for those who gamble only for entertainment and pleasure, to be precise only for those who have a lot of money, he will not feel worried if he loses in gambling. of course they are able to take responsibility for the consequences of the risks that will be faced. Most people who make gambling their source of income will easily give up when they experience losses and will not be satisfied if they get a few wins.
That's why gamblers should play with money that they afford to lose, never gamble with borrowed money or hot money what I mean is it will be used on other things or to buy daily stuff. I suppose it's fine if sometimes do gamble on purpose to earn but to fully rely on gambling as of the earning incomes are the wrong mindset.


Situational awareness is a must, because most of the time what we start for fun leads towards disaster. Myself too never had the thought of making big money out of gambling, but the winning made me spend more and more. Finally when I've lost everything I don't have any other way to get it back. This is where we do stupidity. Taking a break and analysing well with alternate plans is the wise choice.
3491  Economy / Gambling / Re: If you loose your funds don't loose the fun on: April 30, 2021, 11:09:53 PM

there is no fun in losing all your money in gambling but yes a little entertainment can change that. its always good to have hope in mind despite everything that goes wrong. you have something to believe in to continue life. just like those who are in prison and then still writing something on the wall to remember the good days or clip a picture from the past where good times are still felt. its just money, you can earn it again.
You gamble to lose money, don’t expect to double your money every time you gamble. If you take your losses seriously, then you might be on trouble controlling your emotion with regards to your losses. If you lose, accept it and gamble for your entertainment, if you’re a small time gambler don’t treat gambling as your main source of income at all cost.
Everytime one won't be lucky to win out of gambling. When you find yourself lucky just have the perfect money management and make the profit. Most of the gamblers get into massive loss due to mismanagement of funds. When you're capable of doing it in the right way you can atleast limit your losses even when you're on the losing streak. Gamble for fun will turn into real-time try, so always we need to be careful.

RCB back to their form? I mean their poor form! Grin
One bowler and one over the match completely turned towards the side of Punjab, hope RCB will change their fortune into the winning moments because they stated exceptionally well with five straight wins followed by poor loss.
Bangalore was struggling to score quickly from the start of the match. Kohli tried to hit boundaries against spin bowlers but who knows that the spin bowlers would be the game changer there! Ball was turning nicely and it was tough for the batsman to hit the ball perfectly. RCB have good players in their team, probably they won't struggle like this in upcoming games.
Yeah, Royal Challengers might've never thought of spin bowlers taking the match into control. In simple words it wasn't the day for RCB, because there is bad cricket from the middle order of Punjab Kings, Rahul gave the best and made the team reach 179.

The partnership with Gayle made 80 runs and with Harpreet made 61 runs. If this partnerships have got broken Punjab Kings might not be able to score more than 150. With less pressure RCB have played and won it. In today's match after 10th over RCB had a required run rate of 12 which is also a reason for wicket fall.

Gambling usually involves a lot of damage on one's own and in dealing with the situation. Even if a loss it is foolish to give up and lose everything profits and losses for the game will be higher if the risk is high it helps to learn something new and it becomes easier to know the next step of the game so gambling has to be played and enjoyed as a means of entertainment. You need to apply your skills and learn to take breaks when the risk is high in the midst of all adversity if the trader the participating gambler is respectful of the rules he can run the casino business profitably.
It is not gambling that made the damage but the gambler that decides for their future .

so never blame gambling for what you will become because this is just s game and a Human is having the decisions .
Those who don't see the gambling as an entertainment will be victims of damage which we can't argue but self control in gambling is the best of all that gamblers should imbibe. Basically those who are destitute in gambling are those without self control, sometimes when they run at loss they blame it on fate which isn't true. Sometimes some do win big before they start to experience the loss.
What you've mentioned in the post is the reality with the gamblers. At the same time there are people who have turned to be addicted gamblers considering gambling as an entertainment. They start as entertainment, in between they have a transition why don't we give a try. Gives a try and wins, this win makes them continue to gamble. In the meantime losing happens and to recover they keep on gambling. Here we can't term anyone to be wrong, but he could've considered something else for entertainment and not gambling.

Bitcoin already broke the $54750 resistance and moving upwards for further position. It already crossed $57000 and traded at above it. We are seeing the crucial resistance at $58000. If it broke the crucial resistance, we may see it $60k+ again. Maybe then the ATH also can be seen over the time. Market will decide everything.
Yes, there is good support for the growth. After a massive market correction once again the bullish trend is seen around. Particularly this time I expect more growth to happen with altcoins than bitcoin. There'll be growth with bitcoin making its new ATH, but the growth with altcoins can be seen in higher percentage than that of bitcoin. Rather than bitcoin, it is time for the users who made on altcoins during the market crash that took place previous week.

Earlier in a post I mentioned about the wagering contest. During the last days we can see whales making big change in the wagering and leading the contest. Now you can see the whales making changes in the top list with the massive difference in the wager. Right now there is more than 10% difference between the first and the second. The time is running out, and I beleive he's the winner.
On the last hour, that is the most important part, on the last hour you are going to see a huuuuuuge war, the top positions will be going up insane, I have even watched one that went 3x in the last hour as well because people were fighting to be the top place. So, let's wait and see but I am pretty sure it is going to be so so much more.

People do not like to show their true colors on the last moment, they like to wait and see what is going to happen first and when the time comes and there is a huge battle that goes on at the last periods to show which one is richer and can wager more. It is not always decided on the last second, think of it like auction house, if someone wagers so much that others just decide to give up, that may happen as well, but until that moment people all gamble and wager and try to reach to their maximum level and see if their max level is good enough to be first.
The top two are competing continuously. The rest of the users on the top list have started to rest. Had been watching them for a while. The gambler in the second position keeps wagering. Had a go through on his statistics. I was amazed to see his bets. His total bets were not even 7500. Within this number making such a huge wagering shows how big is fund management. Finally the person on the second position have reached the first place and continues to wager.

Today's Random Pick. Both the bets were from small amount betting gamblers. For them it is a big win getting more than 100X multiplier on their bet values.

If you have a gambling problem you should stop, no matter you limited the bet will be ended chase the lost and try to recover, and in the end you lost all of your money. Try to educate yourself, a small suggestion you can't stop gambling instantly but you can limited any kind activity until you can stop. First thing should be act block gambling site & try to get some activity.

I also successfully 2 weeks without gambling. Grin

I guess the point is that some people just can't stop gambling even if they are fully aware of how bad it is for them. Sounds like most of our vices of course. The things we habitually can't help doing despite knowing the repercussions.

And that's the first step to recognize it and seek the help to overcome it with others.

2 weeks? Easy. Happens to me about twice a year because of no internet when I go holiday or camping:) Except this year Covid time I had no break:)
Two weeks without gambling is really a big thing for the gamblers who keep wagering. Myself tried the level best, but I wasn't able to make it for different reasons. I was at the end days of addiction, and the loss through gambling addiction made me think of dying. However I'm completely out of such thinking and now too gambling, but with god's grace I just enjoy and trying with small amounts.
3498  Economy / Gambling / Re: Stake.com - Million Dollar Race - UFC Official Betting Partner - Play Smarter 🥊 on: April 30, 2021, 06:19:47 PM

This game looks very promising, plus the win is worth it, the good thing about all this is that they give a very good time to play, those 5 days from today are enough to try your luck, the games on Stake.com always offer a very good amount of money to win, that motivates the players a lot. Few casinos give this type of promotion, I would like to see a live presentation where Steve is playing in the promotion, it would be great!
No doubt, each and every games on Stake.com makes me enthusiastic to give this a shot. That is the reason I'm continually following what the new update coming out. Stake.com has some nice marketing strategy for sure. On sports bets section they refunded thousands of bets, such a risk free bet and this is really uncommon.
Yes, stake has the gambling access to all levels of gamblers. Starting from the low rollers to the high rollers. The rakeback, the bonus, new game launch bonus, telegram challenges, weekly race, daily race and it counts on. These are the major reason that makes stake popular against different gambling sites with cryptocurrency acceptance.

Did anyone came across the news of Brett Lee donates bitcoin to Crypto Relief for India’s fight against COVID-19. More Australian Players have been supporting India get out of the worst situation. Now Bret Lee doing it in the form of bitcoin gives some exposure to cryptocurrency. Everyone have invested on cryptocurrency, whereas a little is known to the outer world.

Wow Shocked I don't know if this is really good for the crypto community, but one thing I can confirm, this is the first time I have seen a casino become an official partner for a football team. It's really surprising!

It has actually been happening for a long time already. As a matter of fact, in the Premier League alone, "eight of the 20 clubs are sponsored by betting firms - Burnley, Crystal Palace, Fulham, Leeds, Newcastle, Southampton, West Ham and Wolves." And in the "Championship, which is title sponsored by SkyBet, it’s 12 clubs."[1] That is why there was a recent controversy when it was proposed in the UK that sponsorship on football shirts would ban gambling companies.

Even with Sportsbet.io, it is not the first time either. It is not a surprise at all. Sportsbet.io is actually an official partner of "Southampton FC in the English Premier League, Watford FC in the Championship, Clube de Regatas do Flamengo in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A and Rosario Central in the Superliga Argentina."[2]

As a matter of fact, the news of the partnership of Sportsbet.io and Southampton FC is already a contract extension. They were already partners since last year. It's an old news. It was in August last year when The Saints welcomed Sportsbet.io as the main club partner.[3]

[3] https://www.southamptonfc.com/news/2020-08-25/southampton-football-club-sportsbetio-main-club-partner
Yes, already sportsbet have partnered with Southampton Club during the premier league. With the sponsoring they might've got good results in terms of traffic to the website as well as increase in the users. Further to make things work better now the promotion is made in a much open manner than the previous time.
