No, as long as there is risk involved and randomness of the result, there is no truly safe bets but only lucky bets.  Even with most minimal risk,  it cannot be considered safe.  

Indeed. there's still risk even the chance of winning was so high there's still things that might affect your bets.
But if you understand the game and the team that you are betting with, the chance of winning is much better.

Sports betting just like any other gambling games, there is always a percentage that you will be busted just like what I have stated, the randomness factor makes our bets even on the most favorable scenario to lose.

Because you are still in gambling business there's no assurance that you'll win from time to time. You have lesser risk if you
really know the game as you can weight in the reason for having such odds.

Trading is the good way to make money but it is so risky for new traders. I will suggest new traders to trade on demo account. More market analysis is needed for being a good trader.

If you want to start things right then doing this is the right thing to do.

Practice and check if your attitude is capable for this business, though there's a big differences between real money and demo
account but the experienced with the market movement still the same, if you are comfortable and you see that you got the chance
then use your real money and experienced the actual actions.

What area /country is this? You forgot to mention OP. Also, if you have the article link on what you are talking about here, would be great.

Okay. I got the news article here.

https://newsinfo.inquirer.net/1174536/4-arrested-as-spider-fights-gain-following-as-a-form-of-gambling

But it was last year, and no pandemic yet at that time. Wonder if they have spider betting during this pandemic? Parents should be responsible with their kids though.
There is a spider betting happening near at my place even if there is a pandemic. I have been watching them betting on whicg spider they think that will win the fight. I even caught a kid bet with another kid before the spider at put on a thread to fight and they even bring flashlights to go in the mountain to find spiders so they will have spiders to fight and bet.

Parents should be liable  to this kind of minors actions.

If the government successfully chased them up their parents should also be summoned and get the same cases that will
be filed against them. From this pandemic situations excuses should not be tolerated.
3984  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Scammers are back with another trick. Be alert!!! on: September 13, 2020, 09:58:36 AM
The first is Facebook, Twitter, Google advertising now to youtube, scammers are very creative to find ways to make money from people. They insert false messages into videos of celebrities and make people believe they are real. I do not trust those messages, perhaps only newcomers to this market are fooled so easily.
We need to do something for YouTube to censor the content and not to expose fraudulent information to everyone. They are making the crypto reputation worse.

You need to act fast since once the live streaming happened there are always people that will follow those scammers.

You are right, scammers are always updated and they are very creative in finding ways how to scam people, using new sets of
ideas and tricking people to support their scamming activities, If you see such things around make it quick to report right away.

Houston Rockets - 1st half +3.5... GL everyone.
119 LAL - 96 Rockets

Congratulations to the Lakers. They're now waiting for the semi's / conference finals.

The team has enough time to rest.

Rockets has no match in this game, they rallied but not enough, they ran out of gas.
Davis was not even playing at its best in this game, Lakers are just moving the ball better and they are more confident to win so they got this easy win.

After an impressive performance in the last playoffs with Paul, this year they were a disappointment with WB.

Lesson learned for, letting Capela go and trading PG was a bad mistake.

Quite true after the last performance last year where they've almost won over GSW. The Duo's of Harden and WB ain't enough to carry the team to win this series.

Playing small,  without good shooting percentage they've got overpowered by the Lakers.
LeBron played well and the rest of his teammates are really contributing, both defense and offense are very
impressive, rotations and switches really make them very competitive.
3986  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Vietnam bursts an illegal casino who used to handle bets worth $3 billions on: September 13, 2020, 06:24:08 AM
I recommend people not to play on only-fiat platforms . I have had a lot of losses in fiat play sites and those platforms neither seem to be as fair as the play with crypto ones . Just my opinion .
Since I knew crypto gambling sites I never played again with Fiat based casino even physically. But some especially old ones prefers the fiat based as they are more familiar with and even there are illegalities that may have in that casino if its run or played online some will not noticed it so its good if the government was able to determines those not registered and I legally operating physically or in online.

That's really existing, there are illegal gambling house where gamblers supports the activities.
They are not concern about anything as long as the sites pay them for their wins they will continue to use the sites,
it's really the government that's needs to step up and bring those sites to be closed, no need to wait for someone
to be scam by those illegal practitioners.

Just come to know by the site admin at the casineo's chatbox that they have update the site today and now the website speed has been increased considerably and also they have launched Doge and TRX betting. These are few updates which are being applied today.
Just checked the site, looks like it still on maintenance at the moment since no one can place a bet and there is no bets record on the home page.

Aside from that, the funds did not show in my account (previously there are several cents left)

Did you faced the same issue?

last day I also notice this one. But its back to normal now maybe they are just having small updates that's why we experience that problem. You can now able to play and see your balance in different wallet that you have balance.

Yeah right. The team inform players inside the chat that they've made update, I also got worried when I did place my bet and it's not doing anything, chatting the team makes it work. Good thing since my bet for Boston won. Good job from the team assisting me with my concern. Now everything seems working normally, they've added both Doge and TRX nice see additional options.

I'm sure he just wants to recover his good name. but that will not mean the morning of those who have seen what he has done in the market.

He already make the damages for sure it won't be easy for those who got involved and lose their money from this project, even he's trying to catch up and return the money the damage has been done.

This issue will be hard for the market to accept, but the sushi asset is now being considered for release on several exchanges.

There's still chances that traders will join the ride, people who knows how to play well with this kind of trends, they are willing to take part and risk their money.

it happened when so many people were trapped. and now we will wait for how the market will respond to this.

Indeed, it will be depends from how the market will respond to this action that the dev made. If there are more investors who will buy this and show back interest with sushi then expect something decent.
3989  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: September 12, 2020, 03:22:03 PM
So it's Heat vs Celtic...

Miami will have a good run in this round tho the Celtic are a great team, I'm absolutely confident in the team that defeated the best team in the league.

The West are still battling 2nd round. Trust me the beast resides in the EAST. 😁

Miami Heat had a great run in this playoffs but I think Boston Celtics will win the ECF. We will see how Miami would play against them and I want to see how will Boston face the tight defense of Miami that they showed against the Milwaukee Bucks. I don't know what will happen but let's wait what will happen to the WCF.

The key here for Miami is there agressive in terms of defense, they are not going to give easy basket.
While their offense is really effective as they are trusting each other's back.
It's really a good ECF match up where both teams defeated the favorite. Bucks number one seat then Raptors as being the defending world champ.

Negative thinkers are natural a part of our lives, without them, then life is incomplete, the job on you is to know how to deal with them, know what to believe and what not to, God created the world and made it perfect, but humans beings aren't perfect, everything in this life has it opposite and it's OK cus they all play their different roles in shaping the world.

You have to sort things out for you to able pick those right people to circle around you. Different people have different impact to your life. Stay focused with those who have good reflection in your life.

Forget those who are not doing any help and just bringing bad impression, they've done nothing but just to bring bad vibes to you, they are not helping out instead they're only bringing negative effects.
3991  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Downfall of dia data (DeFi) on: September 12, 2020, 04:59:46 AM
Most likely, such a dump of this project happened because in a few days they have to give out rewards for the bounty campaign. Perhaps this is an artificial price reduction
Don't blame the bounty hunters, take a closer look at the transaction volume and the number of tokens the project paid for the bounty hunters. The total pool paid by the bounty campaign is 100k DIA but the transaction volume in Binance is $ 1m5. Obviously we haven't included it at other exchanges, so it's all the bounty hunters' fault?
They have a lot of investors and the majority of them took profits by selling off tokens. It is normal to drop drastically after a period of growth. So don't blame anyone, it's the nature of the financial markets. Smiley

Agree to that or it could also possible that those bagholders just happened to ride with the hunters and sell out bagging decent profits most likely they'll going to reinvest after dip.

There's no one to be blamed as we are inside this business, you need to make a good balance both of your time and money, rise and fall will take place always have a good manageable plan.

Timing is always important 😉 be alert with how the market behaves.
3992  Economy / Gambling / Re: Best Prediction Site on: September 11, 2020, 12:43:49 PM
You shouldn't trust the prediction site completely as it is not entirely accurate. You better rely on yourself on which team you bet. Prediction sites won't bring you good profit even if some of their predictions have higher winning rate. Well, it's your decision to make so it's up to you to decide if you want to trust prediction sites.

Using Prediction to help you to decide but not to completely relied with the share picks. Still important to have your own knowledge
in regards to types of games you aimed to place your bets.

There's always a higher chances of winning if you do your own research while looking for
free predictions from people who have a strong knowledge with types of games that they are
sharing.
3993  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Be careful when you play games with your coins! on: September 11, 2020, 12:26:36 PM
Gamblers know well the consequences and how risky gambling is. It is just that they forgot about it or even their limitation once they started gambling. Even if the coins is a hard earned money, it doesn't change the fact that it will be set aside once you started gambling and start enjoying yourself whether you win or lose.

Greed influences such actions plus the fact that addiction also conquer the mindsets of every gamblers.
From the beginning, they are not really engage but once they've suffer the adrenaline most of the gamblers forget about
the limitations that they've created they become aggressive either to win more or to try bringing back their loses.
3994  Economy / Speculation / Re: 3 Reasons Bitcoin Just Tanked Below $11K for First Time in a Month on: September 11, 2020, 12:14:41 PM
Actually, such a drop in bitcoin prices was to be expected before the massive rally that everyone expects according to forecasts, but the reasons for the fall in BTC are very controversial.

The influences are coming from different reasons, but most are coming from whales who loves playing around and create
impacts to shake down every small traders / weak holders.

I see a certain pattern in the fact that bitcoin actively rose to $ 12,000 while the dollar was falling, and until today the opposite trend has been taking place, that is, the strengthening of the US dollar in the context of the ongoing financial crisis has triggered a decline in the bitcoin rate.

Not sure to that pattern as both have different venues, though it's still investors who creates majorities in terms of market
value.

But you also need to take into account large-scale mining pools that send significant amounts of BTC to exchanges, which are very different from the usual.

Make sense. Large mining company can do that, they also have such capabilities.

Yeah, I am kind of new to that kind of betting. Might try it again.
It gives more excitement when you watch.  Grin
Let's see what would be your best picked for tomorrow, Lakers is still the favorite having an odd of 1.47 not bad.

Congrats  and good luck 👍

So 1 game later.
I am with Lakers here. Once they got their rhythm, there is no stopping it.
Lakers -5.5

Lebron James blocks had been good.
Game 1 and 2 - 2blks
Game 3 - 4 blks
It might be because of the Houston small line up. Thinking about putting a bet here.  Grin

Another Win Reid. Lakers Dominated the 2nd quarter  and didn't allowed Rockets to bounce back.
Davis again got a monstrous game with a good support from all the rotated players.
Like what you have said once they've got the rhythm they are really unstoppable.

Patience is the key, the market can only be disturbed For a while, it will definitely regain its normal shape anytime soon, cryptocurrency is here to stay, only those that does not understand how the blockchain truly works can be disturbed with the current situation.

Only those who are aiming for profits are mostly disturbed by this kind of situations, but for people who do believe that
crypto will be here to stay for sure they will not be alarmed certain movements like this.
They'll be able hold and wait as trends will be keep changing from time to, it will be depend on how you play the market.
3997  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Vietnam bursts an illegal casino who used to handle bets worth $3 billions on: September 10, 2020, 07:53:25 PM
There are two things increasing pressure on illegal casinos at the moment. One is that due to the corona pandemic mass public gatherings are not allowed. So having a lot of people meeting in an underground casino would definitely attract suspicion, even if authorities aren't looking for illegal casinos in particular. It might just be a bad timing for such establisments at the moment. The second reason on the crack down of illegal casinos would be that the government is missing out on taxes. If $3 billions would be betted in a casino, that's a lot of money not reported to the government. Again due to the corona crisis a lot of governments are losing out on taxes and might search for other income which was usually not so important - i.e. the blackmarket.  In my opinion we should follow the social distancing rules and better stick to online casinos. It's much safer for everyone involved.

It's illegal so government needs to work on it not just because of taxes but also the facilitators are doing things
which is illegal according to law of that specific country, the jurisdictions have the power to implement the rules
and chased those illegal practitioners. Not a small amount of profits chasing more will be needed for the government.
3998  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why Bitcoin price are decreasing? on: September 10, 2020, 09:25:47 AM
the question is pretty basic and i thought you are just a newbie that is curious and wants to learn more about btc but nah because i find out that  you are an investor that are interested to buy a coin  and what is that bull run your saying ? there is no bull run yet as far as i know because the price got stuck at 11k last time but now it goes down again . if you wana buy buy now , only if you want to earn quick income because btc is probably going to take off again so soon .

It was close to 12k price and tried to break that 12k levels couple of times and fell and later came down to 10k levels. Whales might have sold out at upper levels and thus market started to fell. But again, it is holding 10k levels and if we can see some demand from here then again it can cross 11k levels soon.


It's green again after that last week fall, I presume the same thing whales who already see the gained are cashing out hard
and let the market to crashed out. And now, the same pattern are showing bitcoin are gaining supports and the value is slowly
rising, sad for those who sell out while the dumped happened for sure that they are regretting such decision by now.
3999  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2019-2020 betting on: September 10, 2020, 08:42:42 AM
I am kind of greedy now. Not even drunk.  Grin

Gary Harris 5+ assists (last game he was at 6, expecting to repeat it)  Grin

Raptors ML
Nuggets ML

Over 209.5 Boston vs Raptors
Under 220.5 Nuggets vs Clippers

I hope I could at least win one of them.



Only Nuggets is in danger with your pick Reid.  less than 2 mins left and they are still down by 11 but your over
and under are surely won with Raptors who escaped that double overtime.
Really good in picking the over and under I just don't have any balance I  missed tailing your picked.
Congrats 3 out of 4.

3/5
Not bad. I won the parlay for over and under but I hoped I also won the parlay for Nuggets and Raptors.  Wink
Gary Harris just made 3 assists. Well, that's what happen when you just got 23 minutes playing time. I hope they can give him more.

Yeah, the overtime saved my ass.  Grin
Powell. Oh Powell! Big freethrows. He don't know what being "nervous" is. It's not in his dictionary.

I didn't pay attention with your Harris thing as I know you for sharing big bang underdog winners and the over and under experts. Whenever I do have spare coin I usually follow those shared picks of yours 😉

Let's see what would be your best picked for tomorrow, Lakers is still the favorite having an odd of 1.47 not bad.

What about the money ? Is it possible to earn as much money for the promoters during these difficult times of a global COVID19 pandemic ? Do people have the spare cash to spend to watch a boxing match ?

There are still money to make in this pandemic, but unlikely that it will still huge as compare to no virus and fans watching the fight live, PPV, live gates, promotions. I'm sure there are fans that are going to watch Inoue, regardless if we are in a pandemic or not, because he is fun and exciting to watch.

@Ryker1 - this fight is next month, maybe you are talking abut the Casimero vs Micah in about 20 days from now.

There's still money indeed as promoters already have sets of sponsors and those sports bookmakers. Before they've set it up they already have people who are interested to support this fight.

Money talks in every fight that happened those fighters always have a good backup from sponsor gamblers who are willing to take the risk.

And yes, just what you have mentioned it's far bigger money with regular non covid situation than what will be happening during this fight.
