Strategies are just the calculated outcome, but we don't know how far the expectation gets fulfilled. It needs luck. In such situation I'll go with the minimum bet value for the maximum outcome, because I've experienced massive losses going for roll above 2 and the dice rolls within 2. Gambling is all about luck and strategies are just a way to keep ourselves positive on the outcome. The strategy that worked for our friend won't be successful for us, which is the reality we need to understand.
There is no way to calculate an outcome in gambling but many are still trying. I guess it can give them a sense of confidence and they think it's better to play this way than just playing the game randomly. Sometimes the expectations can be fulfilled earlier if we are lucky but it can also be fulfilled at a much longer time. We can't end up in more losses if we won't stop or if we will continue to deposit more.

Your strategy is also my strategy as I think it's less risky but avoid those high win chance games as my experience isn't always pleasant on them. I think they are only an illusion for the players to hope and lose more money.

Instead of asking for guidance without knowing its history, I believe completing your own research can help you determine which coins are best for you. When conducting thorough research, it is vital to be aware of the coins you are investing in. But the best investment right now is still Bitcoin.
I don't think there is wrong in asking but I like what he did here. He is different from those newbies that I know that just hastily invest thinking they already master the market. Maybe he just don't know where to start but he is on the right path. Some of us here can recommend him some lessons or threads to check to be able to learn more. He is more concerned of Bitcoin more than any other coins. That's great as Bitcoin is the most safest coin among all and the most recommended coins for all the newbies. Now to answer his own question.

I'd say "yes", it is still safe. What isn't is when the price is already at $69k or more because that is already an indication of a bull run.

1xbit still see this forum as good place to get large number of costumers so even if they have bad feedbacks coming from various people they still choose to run a campaign so that they can till get a exposure here. But since Betfury is somehow what we can look as reputable casino this campaign can help them since this could extend their exposure and as well many gambler might get redirect to their thread to create some good discussions about them.
It' not the same thing, we are talking about a  casino that basically stole peoples money and still doing campaign to get some more people be convince that they are legit, we are all aware that they are not legit at all and that's fine, it's not a big issue if you ask me because if people are incapable of checking if a place is legit or not then it's their own fault, you could literally check their profile and see it, it's that simple.

On the other hand, betfury is an amazing place and when they do a marketing campaign that means people will realize how amazing they are, they may not know it yet, because they never heard of it or checked it, but with marketing they will get to learn more about it.
384  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is it becoming a thread for casinos refusing paying very huge winnings? on: January 15, 2023, 02:49:08 PM
The casino always has to ensure that all the conditions of the gambling game machines don't have any problems so that if someone plays on one of the gambling machines, they won't get into trouble as some people have experienced. They must be very sad that the casino rejected their winnings, and even the casino doesn't want to pay out the winnings. But if the casinos don't pay attention to this, they will surely lose all their customers and will go bankrupt quickly.
It's true that there are some situations where we wouldn't really be in a situation where it is looking that real, we shouldn't be really talking about a situation where it is going to end up hurting everyone but if casinos are not paying up, and there is nothing obvious for the reason of it, that casino will get a scam accusation and a negative trust, it has happened here many times.

This means that we are going to end up with one less scam casino in that case and I am fine with that as long as it is not my money they steal. Yes, I can sense that people could judge me for it, but if it is a scam, who would want their own money to prove their scam? You would rather someone else gets it.

Are you still waiting and not buying anything? Are you not even afraid that the price has grown from 16k to 21k in a few days? When the bull market comes, things can happen very quickly, so quickly that in the end, those who were not in a hurry to buy may have to buy at a very high price and not get much benefit from what they sold earlier. The best strategy is still DCA because no one knows where the bottom is.
That's not really a question of "are you stil not sure" to people because they were not sure at all in the long run to begin with. I mean I have bought bitcoin in all prices, bought at low bought at high bought at any price I could.

That's the type of trust you should have on crypto and that would be better, doesn't mean that we would be making a big difference anytime soon, it's clear that we are not going to have anything that serious at all, but we need to make sure that we trust it even on bad times so that we could make profit from it. That's what I believe and that's what we are going to have in the long run if we want to make a profit out of this at any time.
386  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: January 14, 2023, 08:26:03 PM
Chelsea already bought some strikers instead of making its midfielder and defensive like become stronger but chelsea was only focusing to the attacking line which is very disappointed. I think that chelsea needs to do so many things to recover its performance. Felix is having horrible performance during his debut. That doesn't even make sense to call him as a good player while his debut proves that if he was not even capable enough to be a good striker.
The red card has been proving how bad he is. Chelsea was making another failure transfer.
But before leaving the field, Felix actually played impressively. The 23-year-old striker fired the most shots (6 times) with 4 of them on target and dribbles were successful 2 times. He also made Chelsea get 4 free kicks. Because he got a direct red card, Felix will be absent for three matchweeks, I also think Felix on his first debut might be too excited so yeah I think it's only natural even if it hurts Chelsea
I think it's not about one player being good or not in this case, but more about they lacked in other positions and yet they still didn't do much about it. I mean we are talking about a team that required some midfieldiers for a long time and even maybe a defender, and yet they decline to buy someone at that position and instead keep on investing into strikers which is not a smart idea.

Of course Joao is a great player, I like him too and I am sure he will help the team a lot when the time comes but we are talking about a position that they do not need. If they could spend a lot of money on buying a midfielder, that would be a smarter decision for sure.

As of now, Aboubakar is mentioned a lot in the news and rumours and they say an agreement has been reached. If he indeed comes, it will be quite good for Besiktas. He already knows everything about the country and the league and the team. Adjustment time will be minimum. If he is ok physically, then it can be great for Besiktas. Even better than Weghorst. Weghorst had a great World Cup but if I remember correctly, Aboubakar also had a great world cup and he can contribute greatly for the remaining of the season.

I can't get over what happened after Weghorst scored the goal at his last game. I have never seen anything like that. As for as I know, there was absolutely no rumour or no news about his transfer. He mimicked 'bye bye' and all hell broke loose. He was very beneficial for Besiktas and even he made them 2.8 million euros with his transfer.
We will see Wright go to Fener and Aboubhakar to Besiktas, that's the striker signings that we are going to see for now. However, are they really sure that this is what they want to do? I am not saying that it will turn out to be bad, maybe it will or maybe it won't but this is a serious summer time level of transfer movement and spending that is being done during January transfer window, and not towards any amazing players neither.

So it could have been avoided, maybe Besiktas can't because they lost a striker, but Fener definitely could considering they haven't lost anyone. In any case, we will see the ripples of these movements for the rest of the season.
388  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: How do you feel about market recovery on: January 14, 2023, 08:34:22 AM
Few days ago, there have been a sudden change about the entire crypto market which gradually drive bitcoin from $16k to $19k plus, could it be that the bull has started this early year without getting into the bitcoin halving or could it be there is a positive news concerning there entire cryptos?
Halving is once-in-4 years thing but if you go through bitcoin chart, you can find lots of bull action through out every year which means halving alone not triggering bull market but there are lots of other positive news as well. This time I guess FOMO has arrived earlier than expected. We all expected bull run and everyone wants grab cheaper than others which lead to wild FOMO.

how do you feels with the market? Do you feels you have been left out or possibly you wanna make a turn to buy now since it hasn't touched $20k yet?
Keep buying will help even below or above $20k levels. But, current situation is not sustainable so expecting another pull back from here could be a wise decision but make sure you are into DCA for avoiding disappointments.
389  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Blockchain 3.0 = DAG?? on: January 14, 2023, 06:22:24 AM
Advantages include quick transactions, no mining required, and can handle small payments. I've been getting into projects that include DAG networks such as IoT Chain because I truly believe the future of blockchain will be DAG.
No mining required? Then who will be keep running their wallets or full nodes to make transactions travelling from one peer to another? In a decentralized environment, you cannot expect volunteers to contribute consistently which is the reason mining was introduced. We may assume that out of tens of thousands of people, at least some 10% will open and run their wallet which will be enough to transmit a transaction but there will be no guarantee that to happen all the times. For a working system, we need assured contribution which ended up as incentivized mining.

I am not believing into blockchain 2 or blockchain 3; honestly what were the projects which were based on blockchain 2? They are still successful and up till date?

Okay, maybe most people complain about conventional stores because the prices offered are higher than the prices offered by online stores, it's natural for you to be in a situation like now, economic turmoil occurred in various industrial sectors and was accompanied by inflation. definitely looking for the best price to save money in the current circumstances.
After I read the book a few days ago, it turned out that it is normal for a business to be disrupted by new innovations and if for business people to be unable to balance or adapt to changing times.
It's true, the stores in my area all sell at a higher price than the online stores, and we all try to save as much as we can, so it's difficult to support the stores close to home. We are also in financial difficulty, how can we help someone, and if we were in that situation, I don't think they would help us either.
Those grocery stores should change to catch up with the trend, or else they will soon be eliminated, that's the law of business. No one can help them except themselves.
I agree, it's just not possible because I could buy some stuff as little as half the price, even less if it's clothing when I am shopping online. The clothing store near me sells a basic shirt for 39.99 for example, and the online shop sells it for as cheap as 5.99, and usually for 9.99, tell me that difference doesn't bother you and I won't believe you.

I have bought 5-6 shirts recently that's why it was my example and the shirts that came to me which was so cheap, turned out out to be good quality as well, not like it is a terrible thing, it's a basic black shirt and that's it, nothing more and it was still high quality. That's why there is no way I would support local and stop online shopping.
391  Economy / Economics / Re: My investments ahead of the 2024 halving 100% Bitcoin on: January 13, 2023, 08:55:04 PM
This was people's thought with Doge coin years back, I was here in this space and many people said Doge coin is not a good buy and hold for a long tern because there was no hype and Elon came to safe the day.

OP I invested in Bitcoin and I have many altcoins as well but I have made over 20x in altcoins since the beginning of this bear market, thanks to the new hypes surrounding Artificial intelligence, now I can easily use some profits to buy Bitcoin and readjust my crypto portfolio.

Buy the rumour sell the news works better than anything in this space.
That is a very very big case of exception. Doge was actually a horrible coin to buy and hold, which I think it is still one right now as well. Just because Elon Musk made it go up for a short period of time doesn't mean that it will always be like that and we shouldn't trust it to go on that long neither. It's a project that was dead before Elon pumped it, and died after he left as well.

Just because you saw that one do it like that, doesn't mean that you should be expecting anyone else to do the same and no other coin to be the same neither. I do believe that bitcoin will be 100% higher, even more, at least x5 when the time comes, but that's on bitcoin and not some meme project.

Todd must be feel disappointed with all money being spent for nothing. Building the team can't be instant and that will always need long term plan. The problem is chelsea's owner wanna see the team get successful instantly without thinking about there must be a process to be passed before chelsea will able to become a strong team again. The result from the last 8 matches were so disappointed for the chelsea fans too. Potter ball was not even working for now. Chelsea may go even deeper than the current position.
It seems like that chelsea will not able to win against dortmund. it's caused by dortmund is far stronger compared with chelsea for the current season.
I think the frustration is not just about the results, but also about the fact that they spent more money than anyone else and still getting these results. If they spent like 20 million euro all year and nothing else which resulted with bad results then I would say that it makes sense to get bad results, in that situation results would not be an issue because you would think "I will just spend more next summer and get better".

But right now, they already spent more than anyone else in the league and still suck, not even remotely close and their closest rival in London is leading the league. Which is a terrible situation to be in, and they need to ask where all that money went to.
393  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: January 12, 2023, 09:16:53 PM
It will be a good match I hope, surely there won't be the typical whining of Inter.
In any case, here Napoli must bring out their strength and charisma, this is the match in which they must demonstrate that they deserve the Scudetto, so they must necessarily win.
I hope so, I bet on Napoli (few euros as always).
Both teams have the same chance of winning the match and it is also possible for a draw.
I'm not completely sure about Napoli's possibility of winning, it's because Juventus' form is improving.
But it doesn't matter, you might have considered Napoli as the favorite because the match will be played at home, but I hope you don't underestimate Juventus too much by betting big on Napoli.
I do believe that we should be focusing a bit towards how we could predict the mishaps instead of the wins. Milan and Inter are both great clubs but they are also missing some players, and we should be calculating which one is missing who and how that would impact. All in all for some reason I am expecting Inter to win, I know they are not the best one but I am expecting them to win more for some reason.

Milan is even better at the league right now and yet Inter looks like they are on a better momentum right now. Hopefully they will be a lot better and win because I have wagered on them, and if I am right that would be a good return on my wager for sure.

Well, I am way into 276k bets on Plinko with no 1000x win... so do not think you must hit it soon. Some people seem to think that you should regularly change seed, if you do not hit it within 40k bets, but I tried that.. before this and I just get the same result.

Gone are the days where you kind of had some guarantee that you will hit a 1000x within a maximum of 80k hits.  Roll Eyes I have dug the hole so deep now... I just have to continue until I hit it... so that I can recover some of my losses.  Angry Angry Angry
What?? 276k bets without 1000x is robbery, even if you hit 5 1000x plinko b2b it shouldn't be enough to make it break-even.  80k nonce is nothing looks like, the main issue is to get max 130x series between 1000x series, otherwise, dead streaks will lead to huge expansion according to the game RTP if you know what I mean..
Yes, but also no Cheesy. It's about the odds in the sense that if you are in profit, that's all that matters. So, let's say you wagered 276k times, and each is 1 satoshi, so you wagered 276k satoshi, and you are in +1 satoshi profit, does that mean that you not hitting 1000x even once is bad? I do not think so.

Do no consider plinko the same thing as dice, because at dice if you wager on 1000x and wager 276k times, you will hit it for sure, without a doubt, would be near impossible not to hit it even once. But, if you wager on plinko, you could still win, it's not 100% or 0% situation there, which means that it could very well be a win without ever having a high return.

It hasn't changed until today and when we check the lottery section what we will see is the round 60th  of lottery, and you are right it will only make us jealous to see the winner list, because this display reminds us how happy the person with only 120 tickets can get 1.8 BTC, in the early rounds the lottery prizes were quite a lot compared to lately
That is the reason I was asking for an update,as I said I am just curious to see how much tickets have these last 10 winners.I know my odds are really low and irrelevant to be a winner here but when I see people that win even with 50 or less tickets this also gives me hope that maybe the next round I will have better luck and I will something.I think like this because I have a minimum of over 2000 tickets every week with once in every three weeks well over 7000 because once every three weeks I win a 5000 Lottery tickets in the WoF spins.
That's the whole point of it though, there is no "too low" amount of tickets to win, anyone can win even with a single ticket. It has happened before, and I am sure it will happen again in the future. Doesn't matter how little ticket numbers you have, you could always end up winning and you should never give up.

I have 100-200 tickets every single week, there is no way that I would miss that chance, sometimes as high as 500 tickets depending on how much I gambled, I will never have a week with zero tickets, even if I have to, would just go buy 100 tickets anyway. It's the thought that counts and if you ever participate, you will have some chance to win.
396  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: January 10, 2023, 09:22:24 PM
It is highly probable that this is because the Premier League is still very tight to watch now while Newcastle is still struggling amidst the crush of big EPL teams who are currently developing in their performance including Manchester United starting to find its true victory with Erik Ten Hag.
It's just that we don't know how it will be at the end of the season, whether Newcastle can survive in the top 4 standings to get a team or if they slump to the bottom due to tight competition.
But to be honest, Newcastle's achievements now can still be appreciated because they are still able to stay in table 3 of the EPL.
Before start of this season mostly were feeling Newcastle United could be ended in top ten of the Premier League but after having amazing result right now they are at the third spot and if Manchester United won their one match which is having in hand then they can drop to fourth which is also good but right now Tottenham and Liverpool are improving their performance and having work on their quality as well which will give them good benefit, and they can give challenge to Newcastle United with this all we can expect any team can stay here but need improved performance and good quality which could be key for them.

Most chances we will have these three teams for the last fourth spot in Premier League and any team can take fourth like Newcastle United, Tottenham and Liverpool which is surely not easy because all are on same level in quality.
397  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: January 10, 2023, 08:04:01 PM
For me that is normal and not "impressive".The reason is that not for nothing Juventus is well over 30 times the Champion of Italy in Serie A,they have that consistency even when they start with bad results,they usually recover.They are the team with most titles but guess what,most of these titles are won not from super star players in the team but from normal players who had an unexplained love for the heavy shirt of Juventus.These players always played in a compact way and gave to Juventus this huge amount of titles.I would not be surprised at all if they become Champions during this year.
I agree that they have a great past but having a great past doesn't guarantee having a great future at all. I believe that they had a terrible year last year and could have taken them a while before they could recover.

Milan and Inter have an amazing past as well, incredibly history but for 10 years or so they did not win the league, and that is after Juventus was sent down for the scandal, which shows Juventus managed to overcome the relegation and win 10 times in a row while Inter and Milan couldn't get one during that period, does that mean they have a bad history? Of course not. Sometimes some teams play better than people expect them to play, and this is what happened now.

Surely, in any business deals that you have, you have to make sure that you are protecting yourself and/or NOT taking undue risks based on too many unknowns, including the fact that some people might be acting in bad faith in order to screw you. 

I doubt that you have to sink to the level of bad people in order to get ahead, merely because you have seen that there are some bad people who end up "getting ahead" in life while sometimes you are struggling to be more honest.

But, yeah of course, it is your choice regarding if you believe that dishonesty, immorality and/or stabbing people in the back is going to work towards your "getting ahead," and if you believe that it is better to live your life in those kinds of ways.  It's your choice, and no one is telling you what to do.. and whether you get caught or get thrown in jail or any of that is not clear either.
I have faced that before, someone offered me a website that was making about 600 dollars per month, for 150k dollars. They have only shown the numbers they were getting in unique visitors and page clicks and so forth, and showed me how much money could be made with that as well, which all in all looked like it would be quite difficult to handle at the same time.

But that did not change the fact that we are talking about an unlikely situation in the long run, it's just not possible and I asked to see their financials, which turned out to be just 600 dollars per month. I rejected very quickly. Just check every detail, because even though it may look good, it may have hidden bad parts.
399  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do people store their cryptocurrency on exchanges? on: January 09, 2023, 07:16:02 PM
Coz people are afraid to take responsibility. They are afraid to fail, in case they lose they cryptocurrency. But, if they store cryptocurrency on a exchange and something happens to it, then its exchanges problem, exchange has failed, but that person is a victim, that accidentally store his funds there. People always prefer to blame others, then themselves.
And not for nothing neither. Taking responsibility in crypto world means that you are literally responsible for all of your own money. It's like storing at a safe in your house, people will want to steal it if they know where it is. Whereas if you store it in a bank, how could they steal it? That is the most important difference.

I keep all my money in few web wallets (this doesn't mean that I am against non-web wallets), I trust them more than I trust myself, but more importantly, if I stored it in my pc for example, that means hackers would want to have a crack at it, and I do not want to get hacked, even if they can't hack the money, they would bother me and why would I want to accept that as my future? It's better to let it be in safer place than my PC.

They can't print more money as this would increase inflation even further. The only real solution for the FED at the moment is to keep increasing interest rates and try to contain the inflation. Only once the inflation is brought down they can focus on economics growth again. A recession could happen in 2023 but doesn't seem so likely, because when all the prices are rising then so are wages and whole economic output is going to be inflated. Number will be higher but in real terms, the value is not going up. We will probably see a rise in Bitcoin prices again in 2023 but the rise is going to be moderate first in my opinion. People are still scared to invest large amounts of money. At least in my country most investors still hold large sums of cash in their portfolio, even though it's the worst type of asset to hold during high inflation periods. It will probably take until 2024 and the next halving to prices really rally again.
They won't, and not to just prevent inflation but they already did so much and that money is not in the market yet. I feel like the best thing about 2023 will be the fact hat everyone and everything is going back to normal.

People are not aware of this just yet, but believe me when I say this, from 2022 1st of January to 31st of December 2023, the best year will be 2023. No pandemic, no "new" wars, maybe even a resolved one hopefully, and no big economic crisis, everything just on the path to be better. That means we should be living a great year, not the best year ever, but the best year in a while, closer to 2019 at the very least, and that should be great.
