41  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Rich or poor gambler, who should risk more? on: June 20, 2024, 10:30:25 PM
~Snip
you have to be obsessed about risk
risk management is everything, really important stuff
gambling can take all you have, if you don't take care it's a really sad situation
you know what I mean?

many people don't consider it and imo it is so basic.
The average gambler understands the risks, but many of them fail to handle the risks well. Who is not aware that gambling can make you lose, but interest and greed have made most gamblers ignore this risk. There's something wrong about them, of course, and they're basically very hard to avoid once you're addicted.

In gambling, it doesn't take you long to spend millions of dollars in your account, in fact it can all be gone in a matter of minutes. So I can conclude that, all gamblers know and are aware of the risks, but they fail to implement and consider limiting themselves from greed.
The moment one fails to understand the risk in gamble, that's the beginning of loses, if the person have been losing all day long the losing rate increases by 2 or 3%. One who is rich might not understand what lose can cause untill he lose everything in bets. Few gamblers who have gambled with all their salaries and savings can testify a little about their experience in avoiding to know the importance of risking management and a responsible gambling life. Greediness makes average gamblers case their lose because they don't have much money.
Well don't be so certain about rich guys not actually understanding the bitterness that comes with losing their money on a spree of losses in gambling. One of the most irritating in gamble is to actually lose consistently in gambling and believe me even if you are a rich fellow you will definitely feel the heat and impact when it plays out for you and one thing I feel the rich guys have over the struggling gamblers is that they have means of replenishing even if they lose so that minimizes the effect of their lose.

Yeah that's true that Manchester city has the league under their grip but it would be something else if we do compare them to the like of Real Madrid when in the champions league and besides the champions league would be filled with lots of other teams that would be leveling up like Bayern Munich and Bayern Leverkusen too if am not mistaken 😁😁
Having the premier league u DER their grip isn't something I think Manchester city actually really does, because they have been able tow in the league title back to back for a good number of time isn't enough to think they have gotten the full colony of the premier league, I agree that they have been a really excellent team so far in the premier league but we can't still say they now have so much grip over the premier league as there are other top teams that makes it not a very easy one for Manchester city to be able to enjoy dominance that much.

Winning the premier league all these years have been by only a few points a d not by really huge possessive points that will really feel like they are the only subordinate to all others in the league. I believe that if teams like Arsenal or Liverpool and possibly Manchester united or Chelsea gets back in their solid form firm enough, the chances for city at the trophy will become very small that thay may not be able to win the trophy , even the one they just won is with a slight point difference that is less than five, so I still believe the premier league hasn't been totally dominated by Manchester city to the point they will be saying they have got all the grip over the league as at this time.
Well until the teams you mentioned actually get back to their old ways and step up their game, I think am gonna go with jaycoinz on this because it's really something else for Manchester city to have achieved what many clubs couldn't do even at their prime in the premier league, I mean that's definitely a way to say they are firmly rooted on their course to actually be number one in the league.

What are your thoughts?


I would have love to know the amount that he would have won if he wasn’t caught - because I don’t know how much he saw that made him take that kind of a risk. He knew that his bet would be consider a crime since he already have information about the result and yet he went ahead to make his bet putting his whole job career at stake and with his position I don’t think he would be able to get a better one. I just hope they are lenient with him.

Exactly what I have being trying to coin out now because it's sound stupid to my hearing, because I can't seem to understand the context of a whole prime minister actually been investigated under the context of actually placing a bet of actually 128$ worth, I mean this is one crazy habit or a way to bet in Britain or is there something that am missing in the whole thing because I believe as a prime minister this level of gambling shouldn't be his or is he just thrilled by the habit to actually make a bet and then win because I know so many people who are just like that.

It was not exactly an exciting set of games that were played today but here are the results:

Slovenia 1-1 Serbia
Denmark 1-1 England
Spain 1-0 Italy


Congratulations to Spain as they have qualified for the next stage by winning two games. The Denmark vs England game was a strange one because England seemed to be playing for long periods in an average manner and looked confused when they should have capitalised the moment they took the lead. Instead they allowed Denmark back in the game.


Well that's the English team for you, always full of potential but yet so much complications when they actually play in the field, England is one of the few teams that have a lot of talents in their squad but for some reason they do keep struggling to play beautiful football and even score goals well atleast for this tournament that's exactly what they are showing because even the first game they won they weren't that much convincing in terms of attacking strength. But let's hope they get a better of Slovenia in their last game of the group stages.

2 Ancelotti at the same table  Cheesy

Seems to be the right decision. By staying with Real Madrid Davide Ancelotti will be able to learn more. And this is the time for him to learn. Carlo Ancelotti is a great coach and he has achieved so much in his managerial career as well. His son should stay by him and try to learn as many things as he can. His father has a huge knowledge of football. Even though sometimes it feels like he makes some weird decisions, those decisions are very calculated and often pay off. Assuming that he is going to be as good as his father is probably not the right thing to do right now. But I can say he is doing the right thing which is learning from his father. Is going to get from his father, is probably something he’s not going to get from anywhere else.

I can remember his dad giving him credits for the Joselu substitution against Bayern Munich. His dad ( Don Carlo Ancellotti ) revealed he was key to the decision made to bring Joselu into the game. It feels good to see that he thinks for himself and is a good analyst of the beautiful game of football.

Or maybe could his dad benefit more from him if he stays? What if it's the other way? I don't know, what I do is think anyways. Dis he by chance play for any club?
We never heard or watch play football.

His father has made his own mark in the world of football. In the next couple years ahead, I'm sure he'll definitely comply and resign. He has achieved a whole lot. Next season, he'll start by winning the Super Cup Finals against Atalanta.
It's good to see that the father actually knows his worth atleast that's a good start to a promising career but if I were to be Davide ancelotti, I think I would have taken one of the offer atleast to start making my own impact although you are probably right the coach for Carlo ancelotti is already counting on him and I believe he has just few years left and if the son is persistent and resilience in providing positive impact to the Real Madrid squad then who knows if he could land his first big job by continuing from maybe where his dad left up at Real Madrid although Real Madrid would be a big responsibility for the young lad.

Bitcointalk.org

It is the best casino review website you can find anywhere. I trust this forum much more than any "review website". The reason is because I do not trust reviews on review websites. Those websites use reviews to make money. And sometimes they do so in fraudulent and immoral ways.

At least here you can be much more certain of the authenticity of the reviews. Especially those coming from trusted members.


Yeah that's true plus the fact that they do actually get to test it out themselves unlike other casino sites where you just get rubbish review from people who aren't really ready to test out or haven't tried even to test run the casino and they just feel they give reviews on how good without knowing what they are actually indulging people into and some of these casino are actively waiting on Victims to play.

Aston Villa is one team who is taking the premier league serious and we all saw that last season. And we the way they performed they now have the believe that they can too compete for the title this new season. Meanwhile they have agreed a deal with Chelsea ahead of Borussia Dortmund for the Chelsea left - back Maatsen with the price of 35 millions Euros to 40 million Euros. However add - on has not been included it which means the price will be higher and much better for Chelsea. On the hand they are looking to buy more players to strengthen the team.
Aston villa is a big team alright but saying that they are now big enough to actually compete for the title is something wild if you ask me although if teams like Bayern Leverkusen can do an unbeaten run in the German bundesLiga last season, the possibility of Aston villa actually winning can't be ruled out and moreover they all have legs used in playing the football and in football now no team needs to be underestimated.

49  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When you are not to gamble. on: June 20, 2024, 02:55:38 PM
Gambling have thought me a lot of lessons and from those lessons I have build long term experience and one of the things I most not do is to gamble when I am not in the right frame of mind, because when you are under any form of pressure, you can easily get carried away into believing that you may possibly make off some money from gambling by risking more that you can afford, this is what have lead many gamblers into bad situations such as addictions and debts on the long run.


Gambling should be based on fun and nothing more because regardless of how much desire we have, if that day is not our lucky day, you will still lose, which is why we advice that gamble with only an amount that you can afford to lose and be comfortable with.
I also adhere to the second point. This also came with experience and as soon as I realized this and accepted it, playing became really fun and I no longer chase jackpots or quick wins.Sometimes we play cards with friends and we only play for tiny amounts so that no one has any offense or disappointment after the game.
We are both in the same shoes, I could remember when I was an addict, I thought that gambling can make win a huge amount of money buy i was wrong and run ay big losses regularly because I am always gambling all the time chasing my losses.

It was after i learnt a hard lesson that i realized that i have the wrong mindset towards gambling and i started hambling for fun with a little amount of money and this was how I bever gambled for profits anymore.
Well atleast you realize yourself and that's the most important thing of all because they are so many out there that are still facing the struggles of gambling with the intention of getting Positive results always. This is simply what breaks you down because your whole mentality would be placed on how can I get the fast and quickest possible money from gambling where as you are just gonna waste time and make get losses even the more.

My playgram casino review

Telegram username @ DaNNy001x

Deposit method
Well for starters let me just say the simplicity of the casino is beyond praise and that's what made it very easy for me as the deposit option is clearly stated boldly as you open and access the casino from telegram.
  • I used USDT TRC20 network for deposit
Although the option for deposit in USDT were just two of which I feel maybe other network chain should be included for maybe a more lesser transaction fee😁

After the deposit from my binance exchange I got a quick pop up message from playgram casino bot indicating the deposit is successful and it was very fast at too.

playing experience

Well I won't lie I felt maybe other additional sport are available at first but on accessing saw the numerous casino games of which many of them I haven't gotten the time to try out.

For the games I played, it was fruit party and gates of Olympus and I also tried a few times on the aviator crash games but upon all my best experience of the games I enjoyed most was the fruit party as it's very simple as they offer an alteration and adjustment of the funds in Euros because if I hadn't checked I would have gambled all of it away.

I actually won a x29$ roll on the fruit party game with a stake of 2$. The simplicity of the game is just what I like the most although I have some questions about the free spin offer for the first deposit because I didn't get any.

Opinion about the casino


  • --first the whole set up about the casino is nice plus the list of coins you can deposit are limited
  • more welcomed bonus should be installed to attract more gamblers.
  • --The fact that all transaction are shown on the home page of telegram page of the casino makes it more comforting
  • customer service representative are active but they can do a lot better in questions answering too
  • first withdrawal shows that it needs to take 24hrs for it to be confirmed but I think it doesn't take that long as I withdrew from the casino and took some hours I was credited


suggestions and conclusion

  • I think the playgram casino is off with a great start but I think the welcome bonus offer for lesser deposit should be made available.
  • for the fact that everything about the casino is privacy concerns as it requires no KYC at all makes it one of its kind and very peculiar for user looking for such anonymity
  • and also I really love the referral system put in place as it would help build up more stronger and fast community among people want to find such casino services.
51  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling all about luck? on: June 19, 2024, 04:39:13 PM
Gambling is more of luck and not analysis or decision making, and this is why you see it that a gambler cannot keep on winning but a gambler can keep on losing because luck comes once in a while. I see gambling as a try your luck thing and whoever take it so will accept the outcome of his bet.

We have games that are purely luck like slot machines, but people still hit the jackpot, so what will you call that. It is Sam with every other game that is used for gambling. Sportbet is the same if not a lot of people will be cashing out everyday due to their good analysis. Have you not heard that there is no professional gambler, no one can predict what will happen tomorrow correctly.
Indeed, gambling is more about luck, because victory is not guaranteed even if you use the strategy applied to the gambling you do. It's true what you say, luck only comes occasionally, but most gamblers don't see this, they often gamble by forcing themselves to get a win that they can't actually get even if they continue to force themselves by gambling in any way. because in the many cases where gamblers experience big losses, it is usually because they keep gambling because they want to win, but it only makes them lose more money.
Even those who are called professional gamblers certainly don't mean they can win with every gamble they make, I doubt that. If there are people who can win consistently with every gamble they make, I think it's no longer about luck, but rather skill, but basically any gambling involves luck.
I have seen countless folks who claim they are some of specialist but at the long run of everything they end up being surprised sometimes at the results of their game and that's why I personally believe that no matter the strategy we apply or all the skills and different pattern we have in playing this games we must know that luck is still the overall factor as a single unplanned event can alter the situation of the results in a good way or bad way.
One trend that gamblers always work on is luck. If there is luck then we can succeed in whatever strategy we apply and if luck does not favor us then no matter how hard we try we will not be able to turn it back. But we cannot ignore strategy completely. Strategy puts a gambler ahead of winning but cannot guarantee winning. If a gambler is an experienced person then I would say that he will be successful in gambling as well as using different strategies. Although every gambler believes that luck is an important factor in gambling.
Luck is what makes the gambler to win, when we apply strategy without praying for luck we won't be lucky to win a few cent because we are not lucky to achieve that win. However if we are not lucky with the strategy we use for gamble we have to change them to something new to see if we can achieve a little win. Lucky is the most important thing in gamble, even if you are gambling for fun or profits you still need to win because it makes you to gamble more as you are winning
52  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Y hs giving out our private information become a normal thing in the name of KYC on: June 19, 2024, 03:51:48 PM

And there are also casinos that do not require KYC to their customers either withdrawing funds or depositing funds, but for the average standard now the casino imposes KYC for its customers who want to be in their gambling, this is still quite normal in my opinion today even though we have a fear of leakage of our personal data.

Just like you said, it's better for a gambler to first read and understand the rules of the casino before using it. If the gambler is trying to avoid KYC, then they should avoid casinos that request KYC and use casinos that don't require them to do KYC before they can gamble and withdraw. There are some web3 casinos now where you just have to create your account and connect your wallet to start gambling, and after you have won, you can easily withdraw to your crypto wallet as well.
Some people are after ones personally informations because they want to sell it or use them for fraud activities, the truth is casino won't stop demanding for KYC anytime soon because that has been part of their system. They are also demanding KYC for their own benefits in other to protect their own business reputation. Actually it won't be bad if they keep a good quality security in other to protect their customers details at all cost.
53  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your gambling life could affect your relatives lifes. on: June 19, 2024, 03:46:03 PM
Very unfortunate that gamblers don't see the negative impact of their gambling addiction. These gamblers don't wonder why some of their relatives hate them and have no close friends anymore because of their changing behavior.
It's because they are focus on what they're doing and not giving attention to those people around. In this state, the gambler is already addicted or bound to be one. That's why it's really crucial to gamble in moderation and don't let gambling affect you negatively to the point you don't care anymore to what's going on outside gambling. Though it's not right, many gamblers are still becoming addicted despite the reminders since they're motivated to gain huge.
Greed is like an inbuilt feature in our mind, and it doesn't affect a gambler ones, it start gradually and if it occupies the mind of a gambler the gamble ends up becoming addicted. Greed starts true emotions, if you lose you think about your lose and it also makes you chase after your losses. There might be an amount of money a gambler will lose and he will not stop thinking of it.

He has a partnership with Stake.com and I assume the majority of losing bets are bankrolled/credited by Stake in exchange for free marketing.
Are you trying to say that stake.com are the ones losing?
However even when he has partnership with stake doesn't mean all the money he's gambling with are funded by stake.com, gamble with free money makes no sense because it looks like you aren't gambling at all because you aren't gambling with your money. If you want to talk about real gambler you have to make mention of gamblers that uses their own money to gamble, which means the person is a real gambler, but drake is a definition of a real gambler.

We should probably at least thank the man, he's probably funding the bets of countless other people lol. But anyway, considering all things I don't think it'd be that big problem for him, he's rich a f and I'd say no types of addiction is enough to be a problem for him at this point in time. That, or it's just sponsored. I mean the mans a banner for advertisement for casinos at this point lol.


Anyway, was late but I would've probably told other to bet against him for that last match OP said lol.
Well that's some crazy way to feel about his loses because that man have really spent alot of money on gambling and the reason why people are still okay with it, is because the fellow is one of the richest man alive and also maybe he  believes money is spent for other ones to actually come in ,😂😂😂

Government needs to increase the minimum wage of salary they pays their workers because as the economy is getting harder everyday they things are also getting more and more worse. I heard the labour requested for a minimum wage of 60k plus but haven't heard it the government have seen to their request.
57  Economy / Economics / Re: Government always hides productive truths from the masses on: June 17, 2024, 03:55:19 PM
Get used to it my guy, the government will always hide things to their people, either for the safety of the people or their own but the truth is that they're going to be hiding it mostly for their own interests and to protect those interests, either you start the change or do nothing and just talk about it, uncover the stuff through investigation, pretty sure that with enough money, you can get an insider that would leak you all the information that you need to know and then spread it to the world.
Op really need to get use to it because if he don't the government will frustrate him. However the truth is that governments will not tell us the truth on about the things they do, because they don't do the right things always.. most of the things they do are not good, because they uses their power to intimidate the poor.
58  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Patience can help alot on: June 17, 2024, 03:49:41 PM
When someone has experienced consecutive losses at gambling, of course they will have difficulty controlling themselves when gambling and if they don't want to lose again when betting, it would be better to stop for a while until their condition is really good and then return to doing it. gambling and choosing to consider gambling as entertainment, of course we will get many benefits and we will be able to know the right time to gamble and stop gambling.
If they can stops playing gambling immediately after experienced consecutive losses, that will helps them to reduce the big lose. But many gamblers still doesn't realizes that they must stops gambling after lose and keeps playing gambling because they thinks that they have a chance to wins and recovers their lose. That's not wrong but they must be wise to see their situation, especially if they already lose much money before.

They can back to playing gambling for other days and reduce their tension after losing their money and that will be better for them because they can manage their emotion not to becomes higher. They must realizes that gambling is an entertainment and not to spends more money after lose. If they can realizes the situation, they will stops gambling immediately and will leave the casino because they don't wants to see more losses.
Although it's wise advise to stop following a loss, this is more difficult. Our brains are programmed to find patterns and believe in luck, hence it is easy to imagine that the next win is just around here. Still, gambling is on arithmetic and probability rather than luck.

Imagine coin flip. The chances of earning heads on the next flip remain 50/50 even if you receive tails ten times in a succession. It's the same with gambling. Every bet is independent of the last; past losses cannot guarantee future gains. One should be reasonable regarding the chances and avoid let emotions distort their judgment. Setting limits, following them, and realizing that losses are inevitable of the game define responsible gambling.

It's an annoying feature in the human brain 🧠  and even if you try very hard to stop it , the brain just keep telling you the same thing over and over again that's why for me anytime I find myself in such situation I usually just let all the feeling die down and probably make myself busy with other stuffs because if you continue trying or having a chance at Winning you would probably just end up with losing scars that will probably take a whole lot of time to heal.

I hope CR7 calls his phone to join the Saudi Pro League. It will be great to watch Ramos in the Saudi Pro League. This is also bolstering al Nassr's defensive line, which has become an unresolved problem for the club to compete with al hilal. 
LOL, is Al-Nassr's defense so weak at the moment that Ramos has to be with Ronaldo and reunite as a former Real Madrid player.

Playing in the Arab League is indeed a very tempting offer for the football legend who is approaching his retirement.

Last year, Ramos was also reportedly offered a move to the Arab League at Club Al-Ahli, but Ramos refused,
despite being offered a salary of €20 million per season and at that time preferred to play with Sevilla with a salary of €1 million because Sevilla was his childhood club.
https://www.transfermarkt.com/sergio-ramos-to-al-ahli-sfc-/thread/forum/343/thread_id/11094

 If you want to know where Ramos will go after this, see tomorrow when Ramos says goodbye to the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan press conference room.
Woah, thats some mouth watering money offer there and him rejecting the offer in the first simply shows that he actually still feels that drive and passion for playing football because most players wouldn't have blinked to such offer and that's what is taking all these players over there to the Arab world. Neymar Jr is one of the players that moved to the Arab world because of the massive money because if you ask me he still would have played more in Europe and who knows get a chance to win the balloon Dior as the two figure oppressing him has left European football @Ronaldo & Messi.
60  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Copa America 2024 Prediction Thread on: June 17, 2024, 03:17:56 PM
If you look at the quality of the players in Argentina and Brazil, these two teams could actually dominate the Copa America this season. Because Argentina also has talented young players, the Argentine side will definitely not rely too much on Leo even though Messi himself is played as the main player in the Argentine squad. However, the Brazilian players also have more young players who are quite dangerous so it will be quite interesting when these two countries face each other in the Copa America match in certain rounds.
I dont think Brazil with their current performance will be able to dominate the Copa America, Brazil performance in the FIFA WCQL last year was very bad, from 6 matches they could only win 2 times and lose 3 times.
Brazil also just appointed their new coach in January this year, 5 months perhaps not enough to bring Brazil performance back to the top.
While Argentina, after becoming World Cup Champions, have won 13 of their last 14 matches in the FIFA WCQL and international friendlies, Argentina will clearly dominate the Copa America this year, not Brazil.

Well there are the two favorite's and also the two finalists last year so I would not be surprised if the two can emulate such success again in the Copa America. But football sometimes is filled with suprises and I remember one particular period when Chile held the title with firm hands as they won Argentina twice in the finals but as for now the Chilean team can't boast of such strength again.
