I am not that impressed at 0.24 daily pure profit with Radiant in the first place from the comparisons,I hope it improves further.My two GPU-s Rtx 3060 ti and Rtx 2060 12 GB which are pulling in lowest power mode 205 watt both of them and I am mining Raptoreum the profit is 130 coins,which is 0.30 minus the energy goes to 0.24-0.25 which is the same almost to this new GPU.

I hope this is just the beginning and Nvidia other drivers that will come with the passing of time improve such card or if not I hope the price will go to a more affordable level at 250-300 dollars,I doubt the price right now is ideal but it was a good choice to try it out.
3902  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: No one talks about xmr and CPU mining anymore on: April 17, 2023, 07:33:07 AM
Monero mining is still working, but it is not very popular anymore because the price of XMR is not attractive, the price is around $160 and it is still going down, so the Monero mining rewards are not that high.

Modern processors are expensive and mining returns are not attractive, so most miners choose GPU, ASIC mining.

As far as I know you can also mine Monero with GPU-s which gives you better rewards than most CPU-s,excluding EPYC or RYZEN latest generation of course.The same can be said for RTM-Raptoreum,you can point your hash rate toward it with your GPU-s,Wildrig multi miner lets you do it,I personally have switched my GPU rig from ETHW to RTM as I am seeing the devs working a lot lately on this coin and this coin has seen some little increase while with a GPU rig I am making about 150 RTM daily,I only wait for the ATH even if it is the same as last one at 0.084 cent I would be very happy.So lots of choices for people who want something from CPU mining.

with 32 ETHs (minimum req-d) ~60000$, how fast do you earn by staking? any rough estimate?
Is it highly variable? Is it competitive?
I am totally pitch black in this.

No one knows exactly but it will be not very fast as with all the other staking services if you by fast mean a considerable amount.The ETH network only with the latest upgrade if I understood it correctly lets you withdraw any staked ETH or any rewards you got from this.I think this will be more clear in the near future but many sites that I have checked are pointing toward an average of 4.52% interest but none of them shows us the time,most probably because there is still not clear even in the ETH developers,so we have to wait to know it for sure at how fast,I am assuming that 4.52% to be yearly but that is just my assumption.

I will tell you what limits you from losing at slot machines and the only thing is to stop playing them.I have been playing them for several years and I have won just a couple of times while I have lost in a consistent way in the long term and no RTP,or weekly budget will save you,maybe they will do in the beginning but once you hit a bad,really bad session the rage will get the best of you and you will continue playing,sometimes even increasing your bet which will lead to really bad consequences and the losing of all your balance.

I have more than 3 weeks now without touching a slot a machine and I can tell you that the feeling is great,I just play some sport bets and watch the games,entertaining myself.

I take part in lotteries but I usually do not make a lot of hope to win a lottery. Participating n the lottery is the easiest thing but getting a win out of it may be the most difficult thing. By the way, its fun participating in online lotteries.

Of course, if you take part in a lottery, you would track its progress and the result. Although i do not think that i am too lucky to win a lottery but still I keep looking for the results and see if any day i would win something big.

What if, I get a chance to participate in a lottery without any investment?
If any gambling site offers, free of cost entry in the lottery, i would definitely not miss that one. Smiley

I enter in lotteries where the participation fee is not big,for example I like the weekly lottery on TV that most countries have and that is drawn live every Sunday.The cost where I live for such a ticket is 2 dollars and is a 15 out of 90 one which is very difficult to win and the people who usually win it have a huge amount of luck favoring them.

I also take part in free lotteries in gambling sites like the one Freebitco.in does every weekly also as the site gives you the option to get them free or even to buy many of them if you want for a really small cost.It is the same though,the difficulty to win such a lottery remains huge.

Bagnaia fall again and now the leader of the Moto Gp leaderboard is incredible to Marco Bezzecchi


Source: https://www.crash.net/motogp/results/1024332/1/americas-motogp-new-world-championship-standings

Looks great to see such new names topping the leaderboard but it is still a Ducati,which reinforces our views that this season is going to be a boring one.I said that Bagnaia should not have been worried for his slip in the past race but if he keeps doing it in every race then things will get complicated by him as he will lose a lot of points and the other riders can be cautious trying to make as many points as they can to keep their leadership.I am not saying this will be the case but problems can arise,nevertheless even if he has gone down 2 races in a row still Ducati is the team to beat and most likely Bagnaia is still the strongest contender to the title despite his recent results.

The battle for relegation looks quite strange this year in La Liga as I am watching live Valencia vs Sevilla in which Sevilla just scored to open the game and was one of the most bizarre goals but it was a good one,nothing was incorrect in this goal and the game needed it.I just find it strange that Valencia is already relegated if the La Liga was to end tonight and Sevilla is not that far away although this goal and this win if they keep it until the end of the night it will give them a calm that they will be a bit far from relegation.

Now the referee screw it up even more badly after the VAR showed it was a clear hand ball and the referee did not gave it,it is pathetic how this type of referees are never banned from FIFA,I am not fan of any team and I am talking objectively so this referee is a complete idiot in the true meaning of the word.
3908  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: April 16, 2023, 07:54:55 PM
Juventus were really lacking in performance today. They should have become more effective in the attacking side especially. Sassuolo were really comfortable about finding so many goal opportunities as well. There is a good level of performance by Perin these days but he still couldn't do against that goal with a really decent finishing. After this goal Juventus started to play a little better and they had two big opportunities to score too. But first Consigli made an amazing save against Rabiot's great header. After that Di Maria wasted a huge chance.

Juventus weren't much good at defending too surely. For example Gatti was nearly scoring an own goal but he must be thankful that the ball hit the post instead. Juventus continue to waste their chances for the Europa Conference League spot. Maybe they are still in the Europa League too but there is no guarantee that they will win the title there.

It is funny how Sassuolo usually have won at home against Juventus even when Juventus were fighting for the title and even have won it,they used to lose the game at Sassuolo,I remember the 2-1 lost game of them in the season where Sassuolo was just promoted to Serie A a couple of seasons ago.

However it is not only Juventus who have screwed up,all the big teams,Milan,Napoli and Inter screwed up their games and Juventus was just a continuation of such happening,for this week I never remember a Serie A with more surprise results than this week where all the big teams except Lazio who won comfortably and Roma who is winning now,all of them did not win their games.
3909  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: April 16, 2023, 07:31:12 PM
With Arsnal getting another draw today, has obviously diminished their chances of lifting the premier league trophy, if City wins in their outstanding game, it's game over for Arsnal football club. Plus with their next match being against Manchester City, I really pitty them because, Manchester City would never give them the opportunity to tie points with them let alone, gapping them with points again.
It will be so sad having Arsnal start a good run in the beginning and on getting to the end point they fall down.
The condition of 4 points with them (Arsenal and Manchester City) still have to meet again in the second meeting and with the condition that Manchester City still has one game remaining this will really be a little troublesome for Arsenal.
At the moment they are really in a difficult situation where of course Manchester City is clear now it is possible to win and can overtake them.
It's really not good and if Arsenal's mentality is bad I think sooner or later Manchester City will be in their place and win again this season.

It is like that because Arsenal is a young team that they thought they were leading the Premier League by chance but as soon as they saw that they were keeping the lead for many weeks they started to believe.In fact their game play shows just that they are a team who can be Champions,they start the games very aggressive and they get in advantage very easily but then they seem to not be able to hold such advantage.I have seen the game against Liverpool last week which showed two faces for Arsenal different in each half and most likely the same I saw in today game except that West Ham was not as aggressive as Liverpool and yet they drew against Arsenal.We have to see now but it will be difficult with such games for Arsenal to become Champions.

Ducati is so strong this year.

If only the past week Bagnaia didn't slip alone where he was second...

As I wrote in a post above yours, Bagnaia and Ducati can only beat themselves this year, I see no other manufacturer this year that could be dangerous for Ducati. The factory team have done everything right this year, not like the last few years befor the World Champion bike, just an evolution and not a revolution. In the years before the Ducati factory team changed too much every year, then Ducati almost always needed a third of the season to understand the bike, this year they have changed less and only tweaked minor details. You also have to admit that the other teams, especially the Japanese, are struggling to close the gap to Ducati.

It is going to be a boring Championship in MotoGP then and Bagnaia should not at all worry that he slipped in the past race.I also am not seeing any competition from the Japanese manufacturers and the only pole position that Marquez got so far if I am not mistaken is thanks only to his extreme talent but his injuries are keeping him at bay from a couple of seasons now.

Ducati has been consistently investing in the MotoGP bike from many years now and they always have been there in the fight for winning races and in some years when they had talented riders they have even won Championships before like in the case of Casey Stoner which at that time was the only rider to ride a Ducati to winning.Now the bike of Ducati is far more easy to ride and the results are just showing this.

I must admit Manchester United in the Premier League has been doing really well in their recent games.I personally had it in the pool 0-2 but as soon as I saw some players injury in Manchester team I changed my pick to 1-3 as I thought Nottingham is a team who scores goals usually and they even scored to Manchester City.

Tomorrow we have a beautiful game of Leeds vs Liverpool which should be beautiful to watch on TV as both teams will play free of stress,especially Liverpool and I see a game with quite some goals tomorrow since both teams play open football,more than Premier League teams play open football usually.

Verstappen has made a statement recently like he would like to race while there are equal cars in F1 as well.

Hamilton was saying the same years ago when Mercedes was dominating... They are always "politically correct" when they are dominating...

It will never happen in F1, Mercedes, and Ferrari will leave the F1 if they can't build their cars.

That is a statement from Verstappen in order to be showing to the world that he is the best driver and he is not there only because of his car,he is intentionally saying that so that he can win against all other drivers if they happen to use the same car.That statement though would be good if F1 was a Nascar or Indy where most cars are in equal power but here in F1 it does not make any sense.F1 is the top level and we have seen throughout history that different drivers have dominated in different eras,this is not going to change,it was the era of Schumi,then that of Alonso,then that of Vettel,then that of Hamilton and now this of Verstappen.This is going to repeat itself and after Verstappen a new driver will become new history.

The gap between Arsenal and Man City is closing again... The interesting thing is that Man City's next game will be against Arsenal... If Arsenal lose, it's probably safe to say that Man City will be in first place... I wonder how Arsenal drew their last two games when they needed to pick up those points to widen the gap...
With another point dropped I think Arsenal has lost the English Premier League this season, because the point difference between them and Manchester City is now 4 and Manchester City still have one outstanding game at hand and if they win it, it will now be 1 point difference, so they have lost the title this season.
Manchester United will be playing against Nottingham forest today, which I still believe Manchester United are going to win despite the injured players at the moment. Is a win for Manchester United.

Arsenal is the only one responsible for this game that they did not win and they lost 2 points by doing so,now 4 points are not that much considering that they have a direct clash with Manchester City which is enjoying a super great form both in Premier League and the Champions League.

Nottingham is in some really weak form in their recent games and I think Manchester United will win this game,they have better recent results at least in the Premier League and this game will serve them well to forget their draw in Europa League against Sevilla in Europa League.I don't think Nottingham is in such a good form to be able to stop Manchester United.

So I should learn from this, don't trust Chelsea or Tottenham!

That definitely seems to be a recurring theme of this season. Such a crazy obliteration and waste of big money by Chelsea, I’ve never seen anything like it before. Usually teams who outspend everybody else do really well. It’s nothing new for Spurs to be crap and let everybody down though, it’s what they do.

On to todays games, West Ham vs Arsenal where the Gunners can’t really afford to drop any more points because Man City are coming. Nottingham Forest vs Man Utd you expect Man Utd to win but injuries to Varane and Martines might make it more difficult for them.

Yeah, I did imagine something of the sort happening at Newcastle, and with all the sanctions against Chelski since even before the Abramovich exit, I thought they'd at least be forced to not spend the way they did. Absolutely proven wrong in both cases, though the Blues acceleration moneywise is beyond belief.

Spurs is Totteringham Day stalwarts as usual... but I do wish Arsenal didn't come up with their own London special today =(

Arsenal draw was a completely unexpected result in today game,especially after they started like thunders and got 0-2 in just about a bit more than 10 minutes but I think they must have become self complacent after achieving this and their rhythm started to fall until they got to 2-2.They lost a penalty which could have changed the game completely as they were still leading 1-2 when they got it and if the result had gotten to 1-3 then they would most probably win their game.I think now that most likely Arsenal is not a favorite to win this season title and the sole responsibility is their own,I feel sorry for them but they had everything in their control and most likely will lose it.
3915  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: April 16, 2023, 02:27:02 PM
But remember the Manchester City have an outstanding match to play, not even this one arsenal needs to win all the remaining matches to win this league. I'm still calculating it as 3 points because of the outstanding game, Manchester city are prepared for this trophy, despite arsenal is leading am still afraid fot them.
What are you afraid of them (Arsenal) for the rest of the season? Now Arsenal are competing at home to West Ham United and for a while the score has been a draw even though the game has arrived in the second round. And if Arsenal are unable to win in today's match at home to West Ham United, it will make it easier for Manchester City to win the top spot to get another trophy in the Premier League this season. Even though Arsenal had the opportunity to score their third goal through a penalty kick in the 52nd minute, unfortunately the penalty kick by Bukayo Saka did not give any results for Arsenal.

I also believe that most likely Arsenal will win this game because they have been dominating the game in the early stages and the fact that they scored 2 goals in just 14 minutes means that most likely they have underestimated their opponent and that has been Arsenal error which brought the draw from 0-2 to 2-2.However by looking at the stats it is a clear dominance of Arsenal and they know very well that any points dropped means that their chances for the title will become slim and slimmer as Manchester City is on an awesome run not only in Premier League but even in Champions League.So based on this I think for the last 25 minutes of the game Arsenal should be winning or should try as hard as they can to win this game.
3916  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sportsbet.io's English Premier League Football Pool Discussion Thread on: April 16, 2023, 01:39:12 PM
My god what a disaster. After making such slow and steady progress into Top 10 and finally finally keeping it stable, just 1 day of results pushes me down 3 spots.

I guess what surprised me even more is that many people did actually predict Chelsea to lose, but the biggest upset, according to results, was Spurs, which had the least amount of correct picks in our pool. So I can't blame anything there but many many people picked Brighton!

So I should learn from this, don't trust Chelsea or Tottenham!

I in fact had Chelsea vs Brighton 1-1 and then only changed it a couple of minutes before the start to 1-2 as I thought Chelsea is in the worse possible performances which I remember from several years.For Tottenham though everybody or most of us predicted them to be winners against a weak Bournemouth but this result just shows how f*cked up as a team they are.

I thought to lose many positions on yesterday results but I was pleasantly surprised to see that I was up 2 positions and now being in 11th place.Arsenal already destroyed my prediction of 0-2 for today game as already in the first half they are leading 1-2 and most likely we will see more goals in this game.
3917  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why we should play on minor gambling platform? on: April 16, 2023, 12:45:46 PM
Hi there guys,

Since I've seen what happened to Coinplay, my question was: Why we should play with minor gambling platform, and not use only gambling platform like Stake, CloudBet, fortunejack ecc. which ensure us good games, 100%

of safety in terms of withdrawal and provably fair (about games)? This question is also for the owners of gambling platform, maybe they can help to reply it.

I have never understood people who keep playing on those platforms when the huge ones can offer you better possibilities in terms of everything,better bonuses the first one who will keep coming to you every week and month,a huge player base which in terms can be translated with more people playing and as such more opportunities for us to hit a big win as when a lot of players are playing the same slot we know that the huge payouts will come and one of us will get it.

If something happens to one big one does not mean that it will happen to other ones,beside that we have the ANN threads here and the ones who have ongoing positive feedback it means that we can play worry free there at this platform.
3918  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slots 101: Basics, Strategies, and Discussion (with poll) on: April 16, 2023, 12:15:44 PM
Regarding making higher bets, I disagree. Yes, you would win more in the case of hitting a high multiplier, but it would take just a few lost bets to reach the amount you could afford to lose. Too short to be fun.
yep, if I use a bigger bet amount maybe I can't get a big multiplier because my budget is too small maybe it will run out faster not until the free spins

It is not necessarily so. I mean, some gamblers claim that they win in demo mode and with smaller bets, but once they switch to higher bets they stop winning. I disagree with them. Nor do we need to make a certain amount of bets to hit a good multiplier. We can hit it right away from the very first spin. But normally if your budget for the day is $5-$6 it's not advisable to make $2 bets.

I don't know for other providers but even if you have big balance like 300-400 dollars and you play with 1-2 dollars per bet in Play n Go you will see your money draining up the fastest compared to other slot providers.In my opinion as I have been playing them a lot and I mean a lot is that there you rarely win something with a big multiplier in the normal spins and you can only win big most of the times in the bonus round which comes as rarely as possible when you play with big bets.

Pragmatic Play on the other hand makes people a bit more happy because they for example in games like Gate of Olympus and other games with same mechanics can give you a really huge multiplier even in normal spins and that is why for me they are better.

Correct me if I am wrong

I am not a football fan and any form of prediction is still a gamble to me, but I have gamble on few different online casinos and I believe that gamblers on casinos gambles with the casino games, meaning it's between the gambler and the casino, but with football it is different, your bet is on the performance of a soccer team and the gambling platform will only win your money if your football team loses, right?

This makes it more cleaner to me, there will be no tampering of the system or fine tunning their games to make gamblers loses more than they win.

Can anyone confirm if this is right? Or wrong.

In theory it should be like that but it is not unfortunately.They cannot fine tune the game like they can do with their slot machines yes but still there is the referee there whom with his decisions can tear even the best team apart.I remember a funny phrase from a coach in my local league which is not a well known one when the best team lost to the last one in the standings and he said explicitly "with this referee even Brazil would have lost the game" blaming all the blame to the referee.

If referees were all as correct as you describe and that they would not impact the game it is surely better to bet on sport bets rather than playing on casino games like slot machines.

7000 tickets is a ton, thats not a cheap entry as such but his luck is still quite immense.  This isnt even one half of one percent chances to win, dude just did very well for themselves.

That is what I already predicted while the draw was being in the process as the last two winners both had over 1000 tickets and this is the third winner in a row that is winning with well over 1000 tickets.In fact the people in the earlier rounds winning with less than 100 tickets are already forgotten and most likely even draw number 9 will be in this level,people who wager and gamble a lot are the ones which will have the highest possibilities to win the next Lambo.

Well even us mere mortals with 10-20 tickets keep our hopes high as we had winners in the early rounds with less than 100 tickets.Anyway huge congratulations to the winner,6.5 Bitcoin for most countries in the world is a great amount and for some countries is a life changing event.
