There is no tolerance when a job that should not be interfered with other work let alone gambling, because it will affect the condition of the company.

Are there any gamblers who gamble at work and let their bosses know that they are gambling? I guess this does not happen anywhere because if the bosses know about their employee's gambling activities in the office, it is enough for them to declare bad image of the employee, even though he might be a good employee.

If the bosses allow the employees to gamble in the office and/or allow one or two employees who insist on this, this will just disturb the overall environment of the office and no company owner will want such a culture in the office.

Most of the people will gamble in the office on their cell phones and they will do it hiddenly. They may tell to their colleagues about it, whom they are very good friends and trust them, but usually, it's just a hidden activity that no one knows about in the offices.

Chennai Super Kings batsmen could not perform well. Chennai eventually collected 165 runs for the loss of 5 wickets in the stipulated over. Chennai set a target of 166 which is not enough to win. Sunrisers Hyderabad scored 78 runs in the powerplay after going into bat to win. Abhishek Sharma batted brilliantly, he scored 37 runs off 12 balls with a strike rate of 300+. However, so far Sunrisers Hyderabad have collected 118 runs for the loss of 2 wickets in 12 overs. Hyderabad need 48 runs from 48 balls to win which they can win easily. Hyderabad is going to win easily today.

Can you imagine a team that has the most fans and also is a winner of IPL trophies not once time, not twice, not three times but full 5 times  Huh

Chennai Super Kings is the team that had the most trophies but I think after this season, they will never come back. Rohit Sharma, Hardik Pandya, Bumrah, Malinga (Former player but now considered as the coach of bowling). After these big names hints you understand for what I am referring to here, it's all about Mumbai Indians.
Those are the best teams but now they are on the least of the point table. This is the only team that didn’t win any single match in this IPL.

In today's 19th match of the IPL, the match will be played between the second-placed Rajasthan Royals and the eighth-placed Royal Challengers Bangalore. Although by looking at the position in the points table you can all guess which team can win today's match. So far Rajasthan Royals are unbeaten in three matches played while Royal Challengers Bangalore have won only one match in four matches and lost the remaining three matches. So I consider Rajasthan Royals as favorites in today's match as well.

According to my prediction, you can see I think today’s match will be won by Rajasthan Royals due to they have good players while Royal Challengers Bengaluru also have very good players but the problem is they didn’t make runs and take wickets as we expected with them to do so.
Jos Butler, and Trent Boult both were in form and also in the last match, Trent Boult did a hat-trick. Also, they have a very good player who is Yashasvi Jaiswal and in the last matches where he represented the Indian team, he played in a very good form that helped his team very much.


Rajasthan Royals vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru

Toss Win: Rajasthan Royals
Team win: Rajasthan Royals
Best Batsmen: Jos Buttler
Best bowler: Trent Boult

"WPL has been biggest revelation for women's cricket": Sania Mirza

In a recent interview, Shoaib Malik Former wife and Indian tennis star Sania Mirza told that the Women's Premier League (WPL) is the major milestone in bringing Indian Women's Cricket uplift in India. She is also the Royal Challengers Bangalore Women's team mentor and has vast experience of women in sports and the challenges being faced by them.

She has been an inspiring and role model for many Indian girls who want to adopt sports and cricket as a profession.  Smiley

Quote
"WPL has been the biggest revelation for the women's cricket that has happened. Because women's cricket has always been played. It's not like they haven't played. They just haven't gotten the recognition that the male cricketers used to get. And now with this platform, with the WPL, I think it's become really, really cool for them to be able to showcase their talent and also show how good they really are at what they do. The more eyeballs, the more TV, the bigger the sport gets," Sania said.

Sri Lanka played very well against Bangladesh rightly because the Bangladesh team is currently very weak due to lack of good players. But New Zealand, Australia and India will be very challenging teams for Sri Lanka and when Sri Lanka plays against them I don't think they can cross more than 300 runs in any innings. Most likely they will collect less than 300 runs per innings. So there is no chance for Sri Lanka to be very happy winning the match with Bangladesh by such a high run margin. Because challenging matches are waiting for them in the coming days. They will have a lot of trouble to deal with them

Gap between pig-4 and the remaining teams keep on increasing. Only exception is that of South Africa and Pakistan. They have managed to remain competitive. Teams like West Indies, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka have gone down the drain as far as test cricket is concerned. Now my question is, why these countries need to play test cricket? The ICC is forcing them, but neither the boards nor the players want to play. Money is in T20. Test format is quite a lot effort intensive, and at the same time salaries are low (when compared to that in franchise T20 leagues).

So if all the money and hype is in T20 and ODI, then ICC should abandon the test cricket completely. there is no point in only the three or four countries to play the test cricket.

If you ask me, the real battle is seen the test cricket. You can talk about the Ashes or the India Pakistan Test series (if it ever comes again in the future  Huh). Such matches can not only fill the stadium but can generate revenue just like the shorter format of the cricket.

The ICC should try to boost the quality of cricket in nations like Bangladesh, Srilanka, Zimbabwe, Pakistan and even South Africa by giving them funds to improve their infrastructure. Another point to note is that if a team is weak in test matches, they will remain weak in T20 and ODIs too. Similarly, a team who is strong will show good performances in all three formats of cricket.

Today’s match is going to be awesome as one side is Dhoni and on the other side is Pat Cummins as captain. I am very excited to see Dhoni vs Pat Cummins.

In this IPL, we have seen Dhoni’s batting just time in which we have seen, he is still in form and still playing as he played in 2013 while Pat Cummins has been taking the wickets of India’s best players wicket in the World Cups. Let’s see what will happen in today’s match, who will win this match, will Hyderabad disappoint to their crowd or not? These are all questions and replies, we get after the match.   Smiley

MS Dhoni is 42 years old and he is still as fit like a 25 years young cricketer. He is truly a GOAT, has shown good result as a player in all formats. Meanwhile is today's IPL game , Hyderabad team struggling to get wickets as CSK are 120/3 after 14 overs. If CSK keep moving like that then surly they will end up giving a good target of 200 runs which won't be easy for Hyderabad team to chase. 

Finally, today we saw Ms Dhoni to bat but just for 2 balls. Now we should be happy that we can see him at least for 2 balls and today, in these two balls he made just a run which is not good to see.

There was a time when we saw him in every single match to bat but now, we can see him only behind the wicket. By the way, today is not much crowd is present in the stadium but the crowd is more supporting Chennai Super Kings due to Dhoni and today we don’t have seen him for at least a over but no problem because many matches are still left for Chennai Super Kings in this IPL where we will see MS Dhoni batting against the big teams that are playing in the IPL.

SRH won the toss and decided to bowl so Chennai Super Kings batsmen have to bat responsibly as Sunrise Hyderabad have very good batsmen so Chennai Super Kings must give a big target if they want to win the match against Sunrise Hyderabad. Sunrise Hyderabad bowlers will want to restrict Chennai Super Kings to few runs so that their batsmen can bat well and win the match.

I do not see that today we will see Dhoni’s batting at Hyderabad due to his number means he came at batting too late, when six wickets down then he came to bat and most of the time until 6 down, the innings was finished or any other players making partnership.

Also when he came so most of the time, the six wickets down on 19th over then we will see him for just the last one of two overs. It is not good, he should have come early to play, if he will come at 4 down then still we can see him for at least 14 overs or 15 overs. I understand the new players are given more chances to play but there are die hard fans for Ms Dhoni and they love to see him bat.  Smiley

Sunrise Hyderabad vs Chennai Super Kings is going to be a high voltage match today. Surely today's match will be a great competitive performance by both teams as Sunrise Hyderabad's batting line up is very strong. However, it is really difficult to predict which team will win today's match. But I will support Chennai Super Kings from my heart and want Chennai Super Kings to win today's match. But against Sunrise Hyderabad the bowlers of Chennai Super Kings must bowl from the attack because the batting line of Sunrise Hyderabad is very strong so if we want to win against them then the bowlers of Chennai Super Kings must bowl well. However, if Mustafizur Rahman does not play today, there may be a little problem for Chennai Super Kings. Let's see how well the bowlers of Chennai Super Kings can perform against Sunrise Hyderabad.

Today is the match between Chennai Super Kings vs Sunrise Hyderabad and the interesting point is that this match will be hosted by Hyderabad but now you are thinking about what happen if it happens in Hyderabad so whenever the Chennai Super Kings team has any match in any state then the whole stadium wore the yellow jersey and we don’t see any support for the second team.

Today we will see Sunrise Hyderabad supporting their own team or opponent.  Wink

If in the stadium, we will see more crowd of Chennai Super Kings then we can understand the power of Chennai Super Kings because of ‘MS Dhoni.’

I have missed some matches so I will try to be active on daily basis. Today hyderabad and cheenai will play the match and cheenai has lost two matches so may be they win today's match because the team of cheenai is stronger than hyderabad.

Chennai Super Kings vs Sunrise Hyderabad

Toss Win: Sunrisers Hyderabad
Team Win: Sunrisers Hyderabad
Best Batsmen: Dhoni
Best bowler: Pat Cummins



Today I think if Pat Cummins wins the toss for Sunrise Hyderabad, then without any thinking, he will decide to bat first because the pitches of Hyderabad are too good for batsmen, and today batsmen will lead this game as king of both teams. Sunrise Hyderabad has a wonderful captain while MS Dhoni is also not less than anyone, as captain. He is the second name of the captain but the first is Pat Cummins means today we will see a fair match, let’s see who will win this match.

Today is the third match between Namibia and Oman. Hope that in today’s match, we will see a good match between them at Al Amerat. This is an important match for both the teams and today I think both teams will try their best to win this match because if any team from them loses this match, then have to win the remaining two matches which cause of their victory in the series otherwise they should stop to see the dream to wins the series.

Already, the two matches have been won by Oman but still Namibia is inside of the game, they just have to win today’s match then something good can happen for them but at this time, I think there is more chance for Oman to win this series because the all best players of Namibia are not in form.
David Wiese came from injury and he is not playing well. In the last few matches, his performance was very poor and I think today’s situation will also be the same. He is the last hope and if he does not work then I don’t think Namibia can do something significant in today’s match.

The odds for the game also suggest the same to bet on Oman and be on the safer side and surprisingly you will get better odds.
The odds also suggest that Namibia is more favorites to win his one  Roll Eyes

England Women team is very strong in ICC Women Championship. They played well against Australia and showed their skills determination and teamwork. They can win final series easily I am saying this according to their previous performance. They have won against top teams like Australia before so they are a strong team. I think they will keep doing well in women's cricket. I am excited to see how they do in the final series. I really hope they win. So let's see what they will do in their next matches.

Today was the second ODI match between the England Women and the New Zealand Women's team, and with this, the team of England women had good news as they won this series against New Zealand and if they will win the last match then they will be whitewashed to New Zealand by winning three ODIs back to back.

The next match will be played after 2 days at Hamilton where the pitch is too flexible for the spinner because the pitch is slow and the slow pitch will give a lot of advantages to bowlers, especially the spinner. So, this time, I think the England team has to face difficulties to make a high target or do the high chase as they did in previous matches.

I must say, Its a bad luck for captain Shubman Gill as well as his team Gujarat Titans as they lost the match today against Punjab Kings even after his legendary performance. Shubman Gill alone made 89 runs from 48 balls which was almost 50% of their total score 199 runs. Rahul Tewatia(23) finished the match as well. And was excepted to win but Shashank Singh from Gujarat Titans, changed everything.  Gujarat Titans players were playing good and made 111-5 runs in 13 overs. Bit as Because of lower Stick Rate, they were going to lost the match but Shashank Singh came and cover the gap, he made 61 runs from 29 balls and make their team to won with his great effort

All the time I thought that Punjab Kings would lose this match but to my surprise, they won it at the end. It was just an unbelievable chase that I have seen in the recent IPL matches.

Shubman Gill played the best innings from the Gujarat Titans team and I was searching for who was better than him in the Punjab Kings team, but found none. Shashank Singh played an innings of 61 runs but that was not the same class as of the Shubman Gill innings. At one time, they were four wickets down for only 70 runs and then to go on making making 200 and winning the match was a real surprise for everyone.

'Best in the world' Shashank Singh defies odds in Kings' come-from-behind win

393  Economy / Gambling / Re: Casinos not asking for KYC to register and play, but do require it to withdraw on: April 05, 2024, 05:46:40 AM
I think that we always risk when give our money to somebody. Sometimes risks are higher. In casino we risk 3 times: deposit, bet, withdraw. The KYC possible increase risk when you withdraw and need your money fast but anyway withdrawal is a risk with KYC or without it.
The main risk with KYC is that someone can use your data. But the same risk you have every moment when you give your data to any organisation.

There is no doubt that gambling is the risky game and those who gamble know that they are taking risk with their money in order to gain profits and in the process they may lose money too.

However, being not able to KYC even after winning is not termed as bad luck but a scam by the new gambling sites. They will allow you to gamble and deposit without KYC but when you win something and place a withdrawal order they may start to ask for KYC. The bad ones won't approve the KYC and hence your money is stuck in the casino.

To avoid this situation it is always recommended that we do the KYC first so this risk of getting scammed by casinos is eliminated to some extent. Now it only leaves us with luck in gambling and if we have good luck we can make money in gambling and cash it out.

Hi community,

I remember when I was in middle school, we used to play cards almost every day, and our stupidity reached the point where we would skip classes while we were inside school. The method of playing was easy, as the largest number was the winning card. So, some of my friends and I would gather in the middle school bathroom and make bets with the money that we had collected  from selling cigarettes.
Of course, this is not something I am proud of and I do not recommend it to everyone, but it's just childhood memories .

-Have you ever bet at the wrong place and the wrong time?

Everyone does this type of thing in childhood and we never felt those things as stupid at that time, rather it was considered as a courageous activity if the students were bunked the classes and do other activities as you explained. It is only afterwards when we grow up and recall our memories only to found out that we have been doing crazy things in our school times.

It is all ok if you did not spend a lot of money on gambling, did not theft your parent's money only to lose in gambling and also such activities did not make you lose in your studies , then its all part of the life. I feel that those students or kids who do not do such types of crazy things may always remain backward or not so social, Again this is mine thinking.
395  Other / Off-topic / Re: Can family members help a gambling addict? on: April 04, 2024, 05:39:35 PM
No matter how much therapist or medical treatment a gambler receives, if he is not treated well by his family, that is, if he is not treated well in the family, then the therapist or medical meditation will not have any effect on him. Basically when a gambler is addicted to gambling and if he wants to get out of gambling or want to control it then I think his close relatives or relationship members especially parents, siblings and wife, children who live in the family if the gambler With courtesy I think the love of a close relative will contribute much more than a medical therapist or meditation.

Usually, a gambler addict is not seen as a good person in the society but in order to cure him, his family should support him.  The family should be kind enough with the gambler even if he is addicted and this is the only way they can slowly help him recover from the addiction to gambling. If the family members behave rudely and harshly with the gambler, then he may become even more aggressive and may never come to the right path, that is moderate gambling with less risk.

A point to note is that with love and affection, you can make the gambler addict recover from his addiction much more quickly as compared to making restrictions for him or forcibly denying him to gamble or other such tactics. A gambler can overcome addiction if he has his own will to recover from it.
396  Economy / Gambling / Re: What do you want to see in casino reviews? on: April 04, 2024, 05:12:27 PM
We can use a positive review as a judge in this case, since we all know that reviews can be manipulated, but when we have a platform like this which is reliable and a review is been conducted, such can be taken as valid because the members of the community have tasted the bit of what they offers and are given a genuine review on that, also the use of kyc or not doesn't make the review on a particular platform valid or invalid, that is just be the way, we have that to only includes from the requirements on their gambling policies.

I don't care whether the reviews are positive or negative, the first concern for me is that the reviews are real and not manipulated one or paid ones. No matter how much trusted the casino is, you will get a mixture of good and bad reviews (though good reviews will be more) and that is the best to judge the platform and know what its strengths and what are its weak points.

If ever I develop any casino review site, I will allow a section where the gamblers are allowed to post freely and those comments are published on the site without being censored or edited. This will help to know the true feedback of the casino site.

Well, the series between Australia and Bangladesh ends today with a clean sweep of the Bangladesh team. Don't know why the Bangladesh team did not win a single match on their home ground,  they even did not properly chase the Australian team's target.  Today they are still stuck in the centuries and have not even crossed it and the Australian team won it.  The start of Bangladesh was also too bad in 6 runs one was out and the same all the players gave their wickets so easily.
They proved themselves that both Australian women as well as. Men's Teams can give you a bad defeat in your home ground.  First, they won the cup against India and now the women's team badly defeated the Bangladesh team.

LOL.. are you sort of surprised? Australia is way out of their league. It doesn't matter whether Bangladesh is having the home advantage or not. Australia has terrific bowlers who are experienced enough to rout the Bangladeshi batting lineup in any type of surface. And once again, Bangladesh got bowled out for a two digit score. Nigar Sultana, the captain top-scored with 32. She could have batted up the order, but then at 7th position she was unable to contribute much. Tayla Vlaeminck was the hero for Australia this time.

It was Tayla Vlaeminck's bowling who bowled her career best bowling in this match. She took three wickets giving only 12 runs. Almost the whole team of Australia took wickets today. Seven players from their team bowled today and each one of them took the wicket. Australian women batsmen scored 155 runs which was not too extraordinary but it was their bowling and poor batting from the Bangladesh bowling that took the match away from Bangladesh and gave them humiliating defeat.

Tayla Vlaeminck's career-best helps Australia complete 3-0 sweep

398  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What was your latest big win from gambling? on: April 04, 2024, 04:28:23 PM
I have never made big winnings... the biggest was around 2000/3000 USD with and high amount on It.
in general, I am not worried to miss big wins. I have always preferred to aim for consistency of results and not a single large jackpot...

Big wins are usually hard to come by. Unless luck is on your side, you will most probably invest a lot of money in the games in order to get big results.
But when you put a lot of money in a single game or a single bet, you increase you risk considerably and I do not think it is worth taking that much risk where on the loss, you cannot sleep peacefully at night.

I usually gamble with less amount and therefore my wins are also small and I am satisfied with them because I know that even if I lose all my bets for the day, there is nothing significant bad is going to happen with my portfolio. However, it is very clear that usually, no one will lose all bets at a time. There will be some winnings too along with the losing bets.

Punjab Kings vs Gujarat Titans will be the most competitive match between these two teams today. Although there is no gap between the players of the two teams in this match, all the teams have experienced players. But in comparison, Gujarat Titans team has won two matches and they are at number five in the points table. And Punjab Kings team is placed at 7th place, so I think the team that can perform well from the start today is likely to win.
In Indian Premier league competition 17th match is ongoing at crease and both against squads Gujrat Titans and Punjabi Kings entered in battle field for big fight. This match is playing and Gujrat Titans squad has begun this fight for first batting inning by inviting of Punjab Kings squad. Recently, Gujrat Titans squad has completed their batting and their performance in this inning was superb and every single batter of their gang was displayed amazing strength instead of Vijay Shankar, he wiped out at 8 scores and Shubman Gill today total played different inning as compare to previous match and He collected 89 scores off 48 deliveries with power hitting shots. Let's see what happen in next inning of Punjab Kings and this big defeating target will be achieve or not.

Gujrat Titans scored a massive 199 runs in their first innings of 20 overs. Shubman Gill, who is the captain of Gujrat Titans, played a classic innings of 89 runs. He made these runs at a very good rate making this a much valuable inning for the GT. There was nothing extra ordinary from the Punjab Kings bowlers. Although Kagiso Rabada took 2 wickets in his four overs but gave away too many runs, 44 to be exact. This did not create any pressure on the Gujrat Titans batsmen and they played freely in this innings.

When the opponents have such a big score in front of them, there are likely chances that they will make mistakes and lose the match right from the start. This happened today as their captain and opener Shikhar Dhawan was out making only 1 run. He was bowled by Umesh Yadav in the 2nd over of the Punjab Kings innings.

The required rate for Punjab Kings is over 10 runs and therefore they have not only to save their wickets but keep on playing aggressively throughout the innings.

Today another interesting game of IPL. Gujarat Titans won 2 out of 3 games standing at number sixth position on the point table and I am expecting the Lucknow Super Giants to win this competitive game against Punjab Kings. Punjab Kings at seveth position on the point table with 2 losses out of 3 games in this IPL Session.

Punjab Kings vs Gujarat Titans
Toss Win:  Gujarat Titans
Team Wins: Gujarat Titans
Best Batsmen: Shubman Gill
Best bowler: Arshdeep Singh

I think that today's match will be won by Gujarat Titans and hope they will win this match one-sided. This match is more dependent on the pitch because the flat pitch of Ahmedabad is flat more than all pitches.

This pitch is flat as much as possible. The team that will bat first gives a high margin for sure, that has to be chased by the second team. Kane Williamson, Shubman Gill, Wade, David Miller and Rashid Khan are dangerous for this pitch because if any two of them get a partnership then it will be a long partnership which will result in a lot of runs.
