Ahh yes, a lot of times. I thought that my luck has finally turned for the better only to be shut down a couple of minutes later. That's why I don't 'push' my luck very often because it always ends up in disappointments if I tried to play for the win even though I know that it's certainly an L in the end. When something feels good all of a sudden, especially if your luck suddenly turned, stop while your ahead, and call it a day.

I can't really tell on major sporting events though, and I only base my 'accusations' on the patterns that everyone who dug deep enough saw. Most of the time they are right, and even gets the correct outcome of the game down to the last score but it could also be just luck. I mainly spot match fixing events on Dota 2 tier 2/3, especially on the Chinese region where this practice is still rampant. Lost too many bets in trying to get that single win on Chinese qualifiers and tier 2/3 events, and have since avoided events on that region and on that tier like the plague.

It would be better if the official member of the casino would be the ones posting this pre-introduction so that they can answer questions that people here have some idea on what they're getting into. It's just like you're posting some other people's work and you got it under your name, and when asked about the technicalities of the project, you can't give out any info because the work doesn't belong to you. People should avoid this casino first. Perhaps take a quick dip and if the water doesn't feel fine, jump out immediately.

  • Aim for the rakeback on higher VIP level benefits then play safe with games that has high winning probability like dice to easy accumulate the require volume to claim loyalty reward.


You do not accumulate those rewards easily. It will still take some time and a huge portion of your bankroll (if you are a low baller) before you get close to those rewards. Once you get those loyalty reward, or whatever promotion they are running that requires you to bet a certain amount, you will have exhausted your bankroll and you're basically bust. This is why I do not aim for, or keep these loyalty rewards when I'm playing, because it pressures me to meet the goal and end up doing rash decisions that overall affects my funds on the platform.

For dice, that is Primedice for me easy. Its simplicity and easy on the eye colors catches my attention so much that I prefer to play on it over any other dice casinos that are popping up almost everywhere. For sports betting, that would be a solid yes on sportsbet.io, with stake.com being the closest second. Other gambling platforms and other casinos do not interests me, but somehow as of late, crash games are creeping up to my interests though I haven't really played a game of those just yet.

  • Play free spots

Not a lot of casino places are offering free spots or free rolls. Most casinos are generous enough to give out free rolls if you meet certain wager criteria, but that also forces people to shell out some money in order to get those bonuses. Regardless. it is still a good strategy to take advantage of these bonuses when they are on, but is not wise to shell out all your funds just to get them for one session.
3987  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA Finals 2022 - Warriors vs Celtics. on: June 03, 2022, 05:14:43 AM
Kinda glad that I missed betting for the Warriors on the first game. Was just having lunch earlier and they were watching the game on TV and damn, Celtics are really on fire on the 3rd and 4th quarter. I've always known the current Celtics lineup as someone who are good on the inside and rarely pushes for 3-pointers, but this game they proved me wrong.

Next games, perhaps I will just bet on overs and unders just to be safe.
3988  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: PH banned online cockfighting - Worst gambling-related cases recorded! on: June 02, 2022, 11:53:30 AM
The owner of E-sabong give a statement that they earn 3 billions  pesos every month for its operation https://newsinfo.inquirer.net/1563433/atong-angs-e-sabong-firm-earns-p3-b-gross-income-per-month-senators-learn

See? The largest operator of E-Sabong gets 3 Billion pesos of gross income per month and the Philippines will easily generate P640-million revenue from e-sabong operations in the country per month. That money would surely help them cover some bills for the nation especially now that it's still Covid season.

But even though that revenue will be a big help, the government still chose to ban the entire E-Sabong operation because of its effects. There are these missing workers who were believed to be dead already and most of all, it's obvious that the most affected are the poor ones because they are the majority bettors.

They only shut it down because the reports of people missing have been greatly publicized, but I believe if those reports didn't surface and weren't that sensationalized, the e-Sabong operations would continue as it is and the government will still rake in a lot of money monthly from the said legal operations. Personally I don't get why the government of the Philippines don't legalize most gambling activities in the country. It'll easily generate lots of taxes which, in turn, can pay for a lot of projects that the gov't has.

Then again you also have lots of department heads that do nothing but rape the gov't of its budget, so ultimately them banning e-Sabong operations didn't really change much.
3989  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: friendly and profitable board for beginners, have you realized it? on: June 02, 2022, 10:25:51 AM
I use some of the discussions board on this forum sometimes to make a bet on events that I don't regularly follow but I'm interested in watching. So far, I can tell that the bettors in here do their research before giving us information on their own bets. Some even take the time to write their reasoning as to why they choose that bet which is pretty admirable since you know that they really exerted effort in their picks, plus they still share it  to other people which is pretty great too.

I had to share this as it may be the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen in my life. Honestly I can’t believe ESPN is not embarrassed to put this out there. I mean I understand there potentially being a good series and going to 6-7 games, but the math here is certainly way off !




Wow, I didn't think ESPN can be this thick. I understand that we can support different teams and have several other projections of how this series will end, but that is too low of a number to be taken seriously. Most prominent figures in the sports world have given GSW their prediction to end this series. Stats don't lie, plus the fact that the Warriors have better rested and them having the home court advantage just adds up to the probability of them winning this championship.
3991  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Ryan Garcia vs Javier Fortuna - July 19 on: June 01, 2022, 03:51:43 PM
Why is The Golden Promotion feeding this kind of fight on Ryan he is already ripe he is not a starter boxer he should be fighting the like of Haney, Kambosos, or Tank it seems he is not yet ready for the big fight, big-name fighters in the lightweight division have done a lot and fought the best and win the title, but look at Ryan he is just all talks but he and his promotion cannot back it up.
It's so obvious that The Golden Boy promotion doesn't want to kill their goose that lays the golden egg yet.

Maybe because they are setting him up to rake in the wins first before they let him fight the big guns in order to get as much exposure and promotion as possible. It's a simple tactic, but also a clever one considering that the more wins a fighter has, the more following and the more fans tend to pay to watch the man go on toe-to-toe against bigger names. Can't blame GBP because that is how they make money.
3992  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NFT slot Machine !! on: June 01, 2022, 10:41:42 AM
I don't quite understand why a lot of people want to get NFTs integrated within their platforms. If there isn't any utility to their NFTs, not a lot of people will even bother wanting those NFTs. If these things can be converted into something that can be used on the casino, perhaps gamblers will be proud to have that item on them just to trade for perks and whatnot.

Overall I don't think that these NFT integration will make a big difference on casinos and the overall gambling experience but that's just me.
3993  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The digital ID for Gambling on: May 31, 2022, 03:36:04 PM
Ultimately this is just another way of the governments to make sure that they will receive the taxes that these gamblers will incur with their gambling habits. I see privacy being a concern too, especially from people who like to keep their identity secret during their time as a gambler. It is a double-edged sword, one to quell underage gambling and the other to remove the privacy that a lot of people enjoy. Idk how it would pan out, but if it works in Denmark doesn't mean that it will work in other countries, that's for certain.
3994  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA Finals 2022 - Warriors vs Celtics. on: May 31, 2022, 02:43:25 PM
I am more inclined to believe that this is a Warriors win even though the Celtics can still pose a major threat against the hottest team in the league right now. Teamwork-wise and strategy-wise, the Warriors are way ahead of the Celtics, plus the fact that they are well-rested against a team that struggled to get past Heat says a lot about their possible performance on the first few games of the series. GSW will certainly have an early lead against the Celtics due to them being well-rested and all, but if the Warriors can drag it til they are crowned the champions remain a big question.
3995  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: LUNA 2.0 is live! on: May 28, 2022, 09:48:41 PM
Lots of people have been fucked by Luna, and I don't think that the interest for the said alt is still organic. It's just the same shills doing the heavy marketing to get LUNA on the radar of many people, hoping to make more money out of it. Once they got enough, see the price crashing down just like what it did before. People will be fucked in the ass again and lots of complains will arise once more.

It's funny how a lot of people let the same flame burn them twice. Oh well, their money, not mine.
3996  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🕹️ Esports 🎮 Prediction & Discussion Thread on: May 28, 2022, 11:40:52 AM
No matter how good we think NA or EU are, CN/KR are miles better than the them. It's crazy to see just how big the gap between those regions has grown over the year  Sad  2-0 T1 and Faker is playing Akali which is OP in the hands of the goat so, 3-0 incoming :/

Here I am thinking that over the years, other regions have managed to grow stronger and match KR/CN on the world stage but no, these two regions still dominate the scene for almost a decade now. After their introduction to the game, they immediately got the grasp of how the game should be played, and the Western scene of the game kinda fell off in strategies and meta.

It's also worth noting that for 9 years, Faker is still dominating the scene with the same organization, and can still make top orgs look like newbies with his mechanical skill and the way he plays around the map.

As for G2, I can't blame them. They are also playing their best game of League for the most part, but they seem to fall off when faced with KR teams. :/
3997  Economy / Economics / Re: Using plants as a savings account on: May 28, 2022, 10:04:20 AM
Here in the Philippines, growing plants is actually a very profitable business.

A lot of people are into plants, and are obsessed with having the rare varieties in their garden to show off to other people. It is actually a good thing that people are now getting engaged into this industry, as it helps the environment have its lungs back and to provide cleaner air and greener surroundings which is pleasant to the eyes.

As someone who dabbled in gene editing and similar things, I am somewhat interested in using my knowledge to grow and culture rare variants of plants and do it as my other business. It'll be a worthwhile endeavor a few years from now, but I haven't got the time and the passion to do just that just yet.
3998  Economy / Economics / Re: Twitter to pay $150 million for selling users data for Ads on: May 28, 2022, 09:29:49 AM
These huge companies lie to their teeth even though they have legally sworn they will not do what they shouldn't do. Big companies will always find loopholes, legally or not, to have things their way and to make more profit off of their consumers without them knowing of what these huge companies are doing. IMO, $150m is not enough of a fine for selling users data. It should be more. Remember Google's $5b fine in EU? Not entirely similar case but the nature through which they took advantage of their users is very similar.
3999  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Eastern Conference Finals (Heat vs Celtics) on: May 28, 2022, 07:46:49 AM
Exhausted? I don't believe in that, if they will be in the NBA Finals, they won't feel that because they are hungrier to win than feeling the tiredness. Celtics is going to avenge their loss in game 7, and the bookies believe in that, reason why they are still the favorite now with -2.5 currently.

Heat ML looks so easy for majority of the bettor, but it's not gonna be easy.

Hunger to win isn't enough to really win championships IMO. If your players are tired and haven't rested enough and you let them play in a highly stressful environment, there'll be limits on the duration of their peak performance and then they'll just fall off on the later quarters of the game. For sure all of the contenders that plays on NBA is always hungry for that championship ring, but not everyone who has that hunger and drive has the ability to convert it into a win.

Waiting for at least $25k before I put some money to buy bitcoin again. The current price is already good enough but I believe there is still some room for this current downtrend with all these things happening around the world market and the stock market. Once I snatched that target price I have, I'd probably buy in small increments in the next coming weeks to average my entry for this current term. Rinse and repeat, and never really had problems with what I'm doing for years now since it always turns out positive for me.
