Not sure if am to feel sorry for the man or laugh at this!

Something that many of us over look when it comes to playing slots online is playing using demo funds...those demo funds are there for us to test out whatever strategy we come up with and see how well it works, but unfortunately we look at this as a waste of time when in fact we have so many amateur gamblers out there...

If only this man knew that you can't not win slots games with one spin like it's a sports bet...
Fyi all this would have been avoided as chances of winning are below 0.5%. But then again, this loss of funds shows how we humans can be greedy at times and he went for it and the house showed him who is boss to bring him out of fantasy world, but I guess we learn from our mistakes and he will gamble on slots with a different approach.

This Rashford news I keep seeing in the newspapers, internet charter etc about the number 10 him leaving for PSG is looking more likely than not... especially that United hasn't sold a player for profit in a long time and an 80 million opportunity presents itself ... come on his going and secondly I think Rash has lost his spark for United and a new challenge is the only thing that could rekindle his love for the game and a burst back to form!!! Some fans might not like this, but it's the only way to give the team a new breathe of fresh air and reshape the team...let's go United #Ratcliffe_effect_at_play

I think with how price has moved ever since the ETF spot approval, price has really gained some momentum to push up from the 40s to where it is now and prompt crypto users to get those $100k price predictions in, but unfortunately price seems to be finding a barrier around the 70K region which means we have whales selling around this region and not until we see 80K....I think price will keep being repelled here as this is a strong psychological price range.
364  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Do the needful this period and save yourself stress and heartbreak on: March 15, 2024, 05:34:01 PM

And this period comes with alot of significance because a whole load of shit normally happen during this period like
  • hackers striving to get to as many victims as they can
This has to be top of the list imo, as so many new entrants are flocking into the world of cryptocurrencies with the bull runs experiencd ,and they are being preyed on by these hackers as they are easy targets....but nothing research and due diligence can't fix.

All these and many more happen during this period so it would be nice for every newbie and know what to do to avoid such stories especially for the aspect of saving or keeping your coins on exchanges.
Timing wouldn't be any better, if anything this advice isn't limited to newbie's as even veterans do fall for such scams and we should all own up and take extra care of our crypto assets to avoid falling victim to such, when all information of how to protect ourselves is readily available.

Let's all stay smart out there and avoid getting entangled in any scam event and be always be on guard that these are trial time for those that refuse to learn and heed to advice.
Agreed, another great point which should open our minds to learn new things especially in the territory of security of our crypto assets Wink
365  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Is Legal In Our Country But if You Promote It Online You'll Go To Jail? on: March 15, 2024, 04:45:54 PM
I find this unusual and weird I live in a country where gambling is legal there are lotto outletss in every corner, there are horse racing betting outlet and there are online betting station that originates in our country and yet there is a pending bill that if you're going to post or talk about gambling you'll likely going to get fine of 500k pesos or $90k and you will also land in jail.
Two things are likely to be happening here;

1. The government could be pushing its citizens to playing the lottery because they might have a stake in it or probably use it as a cashcow for whatever financing is needed...

2. This could be targeted to any other gambling platform available from you jurisdiction, and they are trying to put them out of business either for not paying the right amount for licensing or probably an individual using the government machinery to put a competitor out of business.

Make your pick from above reasons, but from how all this is all explained it honestly doesn't even make sense, perphaps if they really want gambling controlled then let them ban this vice altogether than subjecting it's people to some hash punishments!!

So if you post that you won in horse racing or you post the winning bets in daily lottery you will likely get charged and penalize, so what do you think of this law, is this right?
If I where in this country, I would go for my freedom and stay away from gambling, otherwise if they serve the interests of the people better they state their intentions than shooting in the dark and people aren't sure of what's happening.

Took a quick look at the spreadsheet, and so far I can see more red paint than we have for green which should be worrying lol...and so far I can see a few users have 3/4 correct answers, and the majority of us falling under the 2/4 which suggests this round had needed you to have luck on your side..but less see how the other half of questions comes by Wink

And so far not so good as am still tied with my opponent who I need to win for my first 3 points!!
369  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin might reach $100k before halviing. What is your exit strategy? on: March 14, 2024, 10:30:40 PM
Bitcoin is rising upwards in terms of price continuously. Many are predicting that it will reach $100k before halving. In case that happens, do you plan to exit at that price level because of possible correction at that levels ?
Exit strategy you ask, well let's look at it this way...

You know how we have different traders in the markets with different take profits strategies, and different risk to reward approachs as others are scalpers, others are day traders and for some they are swing trader a category Hodlers can be slotted in...so depending on the kind of trader the halving could affect your profits but as for my strategy, am leverage trading the markets and regardless of a bullish or bearish market, I always find ways to profit from the markets!!!

What is your exit strategy  with bitcoin once it reaches $100k?
This price is insignificant with how I approach the markets , so not really excited or panicking to take out profits  Cool

But will be nice to see more investments being pumped in here..

Nunez, Salah, Gapko all on the scoresheet..and goals still keep coming for Liverpool at a very fast rate & with the goal aggregate seating at 9-1 and it's only 20 minutes into the game, are we going to see more goals from the Reds as they keep attacking...

Inplay prediction Liverpool 7-0 Sparta



AC Milan wrapped it up early but with their opponents on a red , I really expected these guys to have a clean sheet...guess it was a consolation goal Wink



Keeping an eye on other premier league teams to see how the perform against the alleged farmers league teams Smiley
371  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: March 13, 2024, 11:07:31 PM
That Depay goal kind of reminded me of the Ramos days when he was at Real Madrid after Athletico was denied the golden ticket when he got a late equaliser to force the match to go into overtime, and I guess the team was told not to giveup after that lesson and they went all the way and I myself wrote these guys off as I thought Inter Milan would be too good for the Spanish side putting into consideration the experience the have, and the lack of form... otherwise congratulations to you LADS!!!

Looking at the teams progressing, what are the possibilities of having an all Spanish final
372  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: March 13, 2024, 08:53:48 PM
PSV showed some heart last time out in the 1st leg and thought it would be the same story traveling to Germany to face Borussia Dortmund, but guess what...BVB had other ideas and they have turned up to spoil the PSV party and look very dangerous tonight whenever they attack ,and already got rewarded with a beautiful Sancho goal...and if PSV don't change tactics in the second half this could see another goal for them as they have been creating several chances...

My inplay prediction Borussia Dortmund 2-0 PSV


1-1 at HT between Inter Milan and Atletico Madrid
I wrote Atletico Madrid off, but good to see them bringing the fight to inter...hope they can pull a surprise result  Tongue
373  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why are people getting scared to Trade on: March 13, 2024, 06:27:32 PM
The reason why you don’t see many people venturing into trading most especially the future trading is the fact that it actually needs two things. One is the substantial knowledge on technical analysis and fundamental analysis, and the other is capital.
If you are trading your personal account and not confident about your strategy, then it's a wise choice to stay away from the markets!!!

But as for capital , well let's just say we have a lot of companies out there called "prop firms" and are ready to provide traders with this capital provided they can prove their skill through some kind of evaluation test, and once you pass you get to share the profits with the firm without you as the trader risking your personal money..it's a win-win.


Trading is regarded as gambling by some and for you to earn from it you have to have your own capital to start off.
Having the capital isn't equivalent to success, you need to have the skill to trade and without it it will certainly be called gambling!!!

Friendly Advice: If people really want to trade, let's seek to have the knowledge and tools to give ourselves a winning chance!!

Sorry about your loss mate !!

Unfortunately when it comes to being a victim of phishing your best option is the platform's support when all this was happening in real time and once this window closes coins are gone for sure  Cry, otherwise going forward the best option is to employ better security measures to your accounts, and just incase you reuse passwords to other platforms,you could consider changing passwords!!

And for goodness sake, in the year 2024 if support really is support access to information about you will always be available to them from the backend and not you giving it to them by request..let's get ahead of these scammers by being cyber smart... again sorry for your loss OP.

This Arsenal - Porto game was one explosive one and match isn't even over yet, and with every second that goes close to a penalty shootout...it means chances of progression lean towards the 50-50 chance and  both teams have thrown all they can at the game but I fancy Porto the underdog to go through because they were technically excellent in both legs...but let's see what happens here Wink

Btw, @buwaytress when it comes to grading pool B results does extra time count or game is over after the two halves are played in 90mins Huh

Porto are really playing this game like a team with a plan, and the good part about their approach is that they aren't defending with the park the bus style, but attacking to defend!!! If this game keeps going like this ,I sense a possibility of Arsenal being eliminated sorry Arsenal fans  Tongue...not to get ahead of myself this is high scoring Arsenal we talking about maybe they might just do this on their home turf Smiley

Btw, that handicap answer not going to happen with the Porto approach am seeing!!
377  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🏆Rollbit.com | Champions League Pool | $11,000+ in Prizes ⚽️ Discussion Thread on: March 12, 2024, 01:44:29 PM
Napoli all the way! Barca will probably win this tie, they actually have a better track record away this season than at home, suppose not all teams find their own support comforting... *cough cough United. So therein lies my hope.

Odds are somewhat suggesting this will end as a FT draw, in which case I think the Italians have a better chance at holding their nerve in ET and smack the pens in.
Don't know about their home advantage, but if am to base my prediction based on how they played in the first leg.. Barcelona will certainly be favourites to win this match and with the 12 player on their side I don't see it's supporters turning their backs on their team...it's the champions league we talking about!!! Only problem about this game is that first leg was a draw and 2nd leg wouldn't be any different as this looks like one of those games that could be a boredraw but will lean on Barca going through...

Just to mention to everyone, I'm still not sure how the Final 2 matchdays will look like -- but I think I will put Pot B submissions slightly different, featuring 1x2 markets for the first leg games, and different markets for the 2nd leg+ final games.
Love the idea of different markets, hope we shall have some monster odds for the second leg to try play catch up with the top guys...

Ideas on my mind
  • double bets maybe
  • HT-FT
  • Win 1st Half or Win 2nd Half

**Top Guys not happy with this development, I come in peace**
378  Economy / Speculation / Re: Road to 100k? on: March 11, 2024, 09:17:09 PM
We have seen Bitcoin reach 70k USD and it even reached a point of 71k briefly. We are seeing history being made right here with the new all time high being set once again and it is happening even before halving.
Price now playing above $72K and now everyone that was watching from a distance will be interested to buy.. which could actually trigger panic buying as everyone likes to see an open road to see where they are going with such an investment!!

I guess we really needed the Spot ETF approval to happen, which has brought some  serious momentum into the markets, despite a slow start which saw price dipping slightly...

I have high expectations that bitcoin will reach 100k but will it reach 100k without any major decline in price? Does it seem realistic that from 70k, bitcoin will continuously rise up?
Unless we have some old time whales that haven't sold yet and plan on selling a tonne of coins around this price , otherwise the bullish pressure is overwhelming to entertain a decline in price even after a major sell.
379  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: March 11, 2024, 06:41:00 PM
Since people know Arsenal as a strong team in this season, I believe victory is sure for Arsenal to achieve  from Porto that will make others team to be afraid of them in this season because, they embraced new opportunity to take the first position from Liverpool in the premier league table and it will give them more strength to face Porto to disgrace them with many goals in this meeting.
The champions league is a whole different ball game, and no team should be written off!!!

Let's not forget that not too long ago in the first leg , we all thought it would be a walk in the park for high scoring Arsenal but instead not only did they lose this match but failed to score... meaning if Porto defend like they did, then they could actually knockout the EPL leaders out of this competition and it's very much possible!!

And analysing this must win game for Arsenal, am thinking these guys will leave a lot of room at the back meaning a simple counter will allow Porto to put this  game to bed early and it won't be a pretty sight.

Atletico Madrid coach have to wake up from sleep to do what will make his players to return back to their good performance, so that people will begin to believe in them in this UEFA champions league and predict for their favour.

Too late for that, Atletico Madrid seems to have lost their form and this fixture will not do them any good...I see them packing their bags for sure!!!
