401  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling mistake repeated by the gamblers on: March 05, 2024, 09:09:01 PM

I think that even if we know such things, we can't really avoid them, because there may be times that we don't realize that we can do it, and we can still do it at other times. And in order for us to monitor such manners, we should be sensitive when it comes to gambling in any casino.

Because greed, even if we avoid it many times, will still come a time when we will be taken there, especially with overconfidence. When,  for example, we have in mind that what we are doing is too small, the word greed will enter us without us realizing it. Actually.
On the other hand, confidence and greed are the encouragement for all gamblers to return to the casino. Everyone must go through these two things when placing a bet, and when they are lucky then that is where the highest enjoyment of a gambler lies. This means that sometimes gambling is not just about winning, but about whether I will be lucky today. Not everyone has the same principles when deciding to gamble, indeed most gamblers do it to make a profit so the enjoyment of gambling is not their main goal.
One thing about gambling is that many people don't know if the winning is guaranteed but they just hope and past experiences of huge wins too makes if possible for them to think about playing more bets.  But if you are the type that gamble for fun then playing consistently won't be an issue because you would have probably calculated the amount of money to be used that won't affect you in anyway.

But indeed, basically I am still confident that PSG and Bayern Munich will still qualify for the quarter-finals.

Yeah, after 30 minutes, Bayern took control of the game, but they haven't had any great chances yet. Lazio's strategy is very clear: they stand at the back with two stable chains of four and wait for counterattack opportunities. As long as it's still a draw, it will probably be a game of patience. Bayern must either try to get the first goal through play or with high crosses to Kane. Otherwise it will be very difficult to break the defensive bulwark.
And that's exactly what Bayern have achieved as they have secured two goals already so it's a good start for them and I believe they can atleast secure their victory by scoring the third that will seal up everything too and if Lazio still want to salvage anything from this game then they need to start working their way into the game and staying and absorbing pressure from the back is never a good way to do that.

FG detains two Binance executives –Report

Two senior executives of Binance were allegedly to have been detained by the federal government. The executive officers flew to Nigeria after Binance website was taken down by the NCC in a way Nigeria can not be able to access the website. Although, the site is still accessible through the mobile app.

The federal government are demanding to see a list of Binance Nigerian users since the exchange inception, a person familiar with the matter said.
Has there been any official announcement from Binance verified account stating that their officials were arrested by the Nigerian government? I read something online yesterday, one of the government spoke person said that they didn't arrest Binance official as speculated, rather they are in serious discussion with Binance to proffer solution to the situation on ground. Since Binance has not made any official announcement that their officials were arrested by the federal government, let's not draw a conclusion to this matter.
Well me I no fit how this matter dey true but I believe say since wey the matter dey trend for social media no Nigerian official has come to deny that the actions isn't actually true and beside na almost all the news platform carry am and till date the matter is still dey pend as even binance themselves say dem dey try look into the matter but no be about seize staffs but na on the issue of trying to restore their platform with the full service that it's supposed to have and I just hope they get it soon.

I don't know.. I don't think divorce decision would depend on such issue ! 😳

Well in my own opinion,a responsible,and educated wife will never think of  playing gamble reason is because they have come to know the implications.for a wife to be addicted to gambling is a very  big problem, probably when the husband give them money to buy food stuff they can decide to cut the money into two part and use one part to gamble as a result of being addicted.and this set of people are very lazy they don't take good care of there children even if you are a working class lady you don't depend on your husband that doesn't change any fact.
No I don't think so, not everyone would gamble but that doesn't mean women shouldn't gamble, a responsible gambler should gamble because he or she is responsible for anything. When you are not depending on your relationship you can gamble because you have your money. As it goes you should also risk what you can afford to lose. Many relationships today has ended because one of them are not capable of their duties, in a relationship it is not only the man that has a duty to keep, the woman also have a responsibility. Just make sure what ever amount you risk shouldn't affect your relationship/home.

Most of the games were playing in those days are not working in this present day devices again and that is a good example of the new technology revolution that taking place in all the sections of the ecosystem. Like it has been long I play java games in java devices. Java work well in laptop and not in the mobile phones which is very easy to move with. Now nobody is even thinking of using java devices again. And android devices everywhere. And in the future of gambling I am seeing gamblers will have discussion group in the casino where there games issues can be discussed and other who are familiar with some the issues can provide solutions before the casino representative comes notice.
True bro, I also thought as much while ready some few comments here. However many games are not functioning today because things are getting advanced this present days, everyone want to try new things just as how you would want to gamble at a casino you get more bonuses. These days the real magics casino owners are using to call more and more costumers is the bonus they offers new costumes, most atimes they also give monthly bonuses to their active members. The discussion groups in the casino platform is were the gamblers talk about the new features on the casino and they also tell their experiences to one another. The casino directors also visits the group to get more details about their casino.

Only a few goals in the first halves in England today... Waiting for the return goals from Wolves and Brighton... I would also like Liverpool to beat Nottingham Forest, but Liverpool have their next game against Sparta in the Europa League... Although they can't lose their lead in the EPL standings now, Nottingham Forest are not playing badly at home...

Waiting for return goals from Wolves and Brighton. Do you bet over 2.5 or choose a draw. Both lost temporarily with a score of 2-0.
Wolverhampton can still expect goals from them but to expect their victory at St. James' Park is unlikely considering Newcastle performed quite well.
Brighton will probably be the same as Wolverhampton. There was still a gap for Brighton to score in the second half.
For Liverpool, in the second half they might come back.

The funniest and most symbolic thing to me is that Fulham and Newcastle played both matches 3-0... I had a multi bet that both teams would score in these matches, but Wolves and Brighton didn't score goals... Grin
Now I'm watching Luton play Villa and I don't understand why Luton are at the bottom of the standings... They regularly play well against top clubs, score a lot but can't win...
And this reason is because they lack the vigour to actually hold on to that good play or sometimes when they tend to score first they feel relaxed and let actually let theor opponent press them of which it takes great principle before you can actually withhold from a team that's trying to equalized a goal or even win the game. What this Luton team needs is just to stay focus and actually try and continue their original gameplay instead of holding back and allowing the other team press them.
407  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Do You See Losing Your Weekly Payment to The Casino on: March 02, 2024, 07:07:42 PM
To me losing money is losing money, I don't justify it by saying I support the casino or that it was easy money (easy come easy go). To me every loss is significant since I value money and I know how hard it is to earn it sometimes. I'm not depressed though, because it's not an involuntary loss. I choose to bet and I understand the consequences, but I'm not going to sugarcoat it by saying that I did it to support the casino. I did it because I lost and I would not support the casino if I had a choice. In case of signature campaigns, wearing the sig and avatar is support enough. I'm not going to give them money, unles I lose it in a "fight."
Totally agree and I believe it's only someone who does not the value of money would think this, because if you are well aware of the struggles and know the value of money then you would know that losing is losing and there is no two ways to justify a losing as a good course especially when it comes to gambling. I have a friend who always says the so far as the money he lost he won it first from gambling then it's justify as he class it as the casinos money.
408  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Binance said government did not ask for $10 billion fine on: March 01, 2024, 09:47:25 PM
Well atleast that part is cleared out, because alot of person including myself thought that this particular supposed action by the Nigerian government, that's if they would strike the exchange with a monetary penalty wouldn't be something that is new for we Nigerians because this country and their regulatory official are found of doing crazy things so even if Mr.Onanuga is suspecting it, he is still way on point with this particular thought of his despite the confusion it might have caused.
409  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: March 01, 2024, 09:38:50 PM
Premier League is one of the best in world due to its competitiveness and surprises we can't predict about results while any time any team can give surprise just because of this right now it's not easy to predict about winner with top three teams are having just 2 points difference and in near future we are going to have matches between them which will give better view how things will be near the end of this season all three teams are having same level of quality and consistency is also on their side even we have too many injuries in Liverpool, but their bench power is also impressive.

That what make premier league outstanding, the competition amongst both big teams and small team. It's funny how a team with high amount of relegation just comes up and beat some teams in top 4. Betting on the premier league these days is a bit scary as even 1.0 odd could turn your bet status to be lost. However the top 3 team are really competitive but if Liverpool fails to keep this record of winning then it's obvious Man City would take the league again.
This happens not only in the premier league because their are so many top league that these situations also happen, I just feel that football has advanced so greatly that you can't actually classify any team again as a small team because the moment you look down on them they can easily just fuck up your gameplay and leave you to shocked on the possibility of the lost you just attained as the superior team.
410  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Be aware, no use person wallet . on: March 01, 2024, 09:30:22 PM
As this issue of binance and government dey go so, I go advise make person no go put coins for another person wallet because say em no get another wallet.
Do not get this wrong, Binance is not even a wallet. Binance is an exchange and an exchange should not be used for saving coins because it should just be for what it should be used for, for exchanging coins. After you exchange your coins, send them to a noncustodial wallet that is open source and reputed.
Well are you surprised? Due to the high fee that rocked the Bitcoin network few months back so many users here actually changed their payment address wallets to exchange wallets and so many people out there still very much used binance exchange to actually save their coins whereas exchange is meant for only selling of your coins and nothing more. We have seen so many cases of how people actually lose their coins due to one or two issues concerning exchanges so it's very much safer that your coins be in a non-custodial wallet than an exchange
411  Other / Off-topic / Re: Does having children have an influence on gambling habits? on: March 01, 2024, 09:24:46 PM
For someone with a family, especially one they financially support, gambling becomes a delicate act, like walking a tightrope. It requires a careful balance between responsible entertainment and fulfilling family obligations. When you become a family provider, your priorities shift. The needs of your loved ones take center stage, and responsible financial management becomes paramount. Gambling, once viewed as a casual activity, now requires careful consideration of its potential impact on the family's well-being.
It is true that when someone has family responsibilities, their priorities shift and they must be more careful with their financial decisions. Gambling, which was formerly considered a fun hobby, now has more serious consequences.
It's evident that the risks are significantly larger when other people rely on your financial security. While some people regard gambling as a fun way to pass the time, it's a quite different prospect for someone who has to worry about paying bills and providing for their family.
The thing is that if you are waged with the responsibility of taking care of maybe two to three mouths, then you will know the reason why people actually complained about reckless gamblers being stupid because if anything makes you fall under that category, no one will clear tell you but the consequences that follows the actions of your reckless gambling will make you really understand the ethics of actually gambling responsibly.

I double doubt he'll be sold out of the club. These are just rumours or Journalist looking for click's.

However, the rumors spread very quickly. news about the kidnapping of his parents, rumors of problems with Salah, as well as other media reports.
Whether it's true or not, if the news is true, maybe Liverpool could face problems next season. A crisis in the team and club management may occur. Klopp left the team and several players were finally rumored to be leaving the team.
Liverpool need to properly address their situation if the rumors are true.
These kind of situation always leads to the Downfall of a team that's if these rumors are actually true, because liverpool are a very strong and balance side and we all knew that weren't actually used to be this strong, it took alot of discipline and strength for jorgen kloop to actually build this Liverpool to be like this and many of these players have started a bound that goes even beyond the field of play and if players are rumor to leaving  the team then the whole club management need to up their game.
413  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sports that you don’t watch but you keep placing bets on: February 29, 2024, 06:49:57 PM
Do you have a sports that you keep betting on even though you don’t watch this sports live or you don’t know the full specifications of this game?

In my case, I keep betting on tennis whenever I have spare money on my casino balance from my VIP rewards(Rakeback) after my long game session on live games. I’m not really a fan of sports betting in general but I do place bet randomly on tennis especially the Asian Handicap on live match. I’m always betting on the underdog that already has 1 set advantage to the favorite players. I do this bet just for fun no string attached.

I believe this is the literal definition of “gamble what you can afford to lose”.  Grin



That's cool because i actually do the same thing but mine is different from yours as I bet on baseball and believe I don't even have a clue on how the game is being decided and even the rules involved in the game but the reason I kept playing the game was because anytime I selected some match base on the odd difference the game always come and plays out well for me and that's why I always flip some spare cash on this sports but it's still funny though because I don't know and don't even watch the sport but the urge to bet on it just keeps playing on my head.
414  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you a generous gamblers on: February 29, 2024, 06:45:10 PM
Generosity is from the mind and when the mind is free then you give to people and when people are free with you, you give them without them asking for it. Though it is not all gamblers that have that free mindset to give. Greediness and stinginess are some of the factors that making people not to give others. Those who are not selfish give others and they generous. I am a very good example of generosity. But there are some people in the gambling arena that if you give them even big amount they are not satisfied. And that make some generous gamblers to be stingy with their money.

I don't know but I feel like some winnings in gamble actually amplifies the gambler character because so many people are of the mentality that money won from gambling is actually free money and they don't reason twice before giving or using the money. I don't know if the feeling is mutual for every other person but am quite certain it is for me and sometimes I don't see the money I won from gambling as something that's needs special treatment but I can tell you not all gamblers have the same mentality.
415  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How does a cryptocurrency gain value? on: February 29, 2024, 06:40:00 PM
Most cryptocurrency are centralized, and a lot of them are shitcoins, because the my are used for pump and dump by the dev to scam people of their hard earned money. Bitcoin is superior and is decentralized in nature, which makes it more unique amongst the rest because altcoins are duplicate of bitcoin. What causes cryptocurrency to gain value is mostky demand and supply, and what controls demand and supply, is news, social media and government regulation. OP, it is impossible for anyone to be able to predict the price of any cryptocurrency accurately because of their high volatile nature, and I think that you need to learn rather than teaching, so that you don't mislead newbies like you through your post.
I know very well for sure that all what you are saying is correct but when we include the truth in this we can say that some altcoins aren't that shitcoins many deem them to be and why? This is because some of them have show their resilience to the market price fluctuation and a good example will be the most popular altcoins which is Ethereum. Again during this bull run people actually make lots of profits from some of these altcoins because of the pattern of movement that corresponds with Bitcoin.
416  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling for fun and not a way of making money on: February 29, 2024, 03:12:21 PM
Simply put, I think gambling for fun as a way to gamble that it doesn't affect or have negative impact in your life in all ramifications (financially and health).

Gambling for fun doesn't mean you wouldn't like winning money or you will be fine losing money but it has to do with you gambling within the ambit  of responsible gambling.

  Why people are constantly admonished to gamble for fun especially for the newbie gamblers it is to remind them that gambling isn't a means to financial freedom and  failing to heed to that ideal perception of gambling for fun then addiction becomes inevitable towards such gambler. And we all know what addiction can cause to it's victim.
Well you won't and can't blame anyone for thinking such and that's because the emphasis of the said point can be really confusing especially if the person is a newbie because I believe whether we like it or not the mass public actually believe that gambling is actually a way to earn some cash be it planned or by luck or a better explanation and expatiation on the idea would really go a long way.
417  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: February 29, 2024, 03:06:38 PM
~
I think the lucky score scored by Casemiro gave a very great impression for Manchester United but actually Erik Ten Hag's troops will still have difficulty in terms of scoring if Hojlund is still absent in the next few matches while Nottingham should not be a strong opponent for MU but it turns out In yesterday's match it was still very difficult to get a winning score and from this match we can see Manchester United's shortcomings, namely the lack of more quality attacking players like Hojlund.
After this, I also won't be sure if Hojlund continues to miss the next match, he will most likely lose the next FA cup because he has to face a strong club in the current PL.
I wouldn't expect much for Man United in the FA Cup because their next opponent is Liverpool. So even with the performance against Nottingham, it is difficult to score more goals, let alone against Liverpool. On March 26 maybe Hojlund will have to recover quickly and return to the main squad, because if not it is certain that Erik Ten Hag will have difficulties on the front lines. there is no striker to rely on at the moment Marcus Rashford has sunk and is not like the one we know anymore. Antony is also not a suitable player as a source of hope, Alejandro Garnacho is still less consistent when there is no strong supporter in supplying the ball, his movements are closed. This season's FA Cup trophy is worth fighting over for Liverpool and Man City because both of them are targeting 2 EPL trophies and the FA Cup.
And don't forget the Europa league for Liverpool and also the champions league for Manchester city. Manchester  united and ten hag know that playing Liverpool is almost like a lost cause and I doubt that they can meet up with the flare that Liverpool brings to the table.  Although since it's a cup match, who knows what they might cook up but over the years it's been quite clear that Liverpool are way ahead of Manchester united when you access the ratio of wins between the two teams.
418  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Binance problems with FG intensify on: February 28, 2024, 10:42:18 PM
Well it's no news that the federal government are out to really put regulations on how cryptocurrency dealings should be operated in Nigeria and one of their main target has being binance exchange and just today we saw that binance has disabled their P2P method of trading coins for Nigerian users.

Now I see this link about binance exchange top official being detained.

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2024/02/breaking-nigeria-detains-binance-executives-in-cryptocurrency-crackdown/amp/

I just dey wonder where this madness go stop with Federal government and their quest to actually track down transaction that is better left untracked and to what extent and how many exchange will they target too because I believe if dem continue this then to trade coins for naija go hard well well only of we all no migrate to using decentralized exchange to trade our coins .
419  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling between the past and nowadays on: February 28, 2024, 10:28:58 PM
The rise of online gambling, mobile apps, and virtual reality gaming has revolutionized the industry and attracted a new niche of players.
In the past, gambling was often seen as taboo or illegal, but in recent years it has become more accepted and even adopted in popular culture. This change in perception has led to a greater acceptance of gambling and an increase in the number of persons practicing it. Furthermore, the gambling industry has become more competitive, with casinos and online platforms constantly innovating and offering new and exciting games and experiences to attract players. This led to a diverse range of options for players to choose from, making the gambling industry more dynamic and attractive for a new range of users.

And all this upgrade has aslo brought high number of addicted persons also because the rate at which people do gamble is of a very high volume and that's just the simplicity of how gambling have become. Gambling has indeed gotten a different view because of the rise of technology and how easy it has become to access it and also how much wins people have gotten from it too. People who had different taught about gambling especially the ill taught have had a change of mind because of the wins that other gamblers get on a steady.
420  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is it ethical to break your gambling rules on: February 28, 2024, 10:23:18 PM
My recent experience from gambling, prompted me to ask this question,  and just as the title stated clearly,  you can easily deduce what I am trying to ask in this thread


My experience
In the last two weeks, I have been on a steady roll in gambling and most of the stakes I placed are mostly in sports bets, dice, and spin, all these games are luck-based games unless for football that requires a little bit of analysis.


That being said, this week I noticed that I have continued in the same trend despite that I have a personal gambling rule, not to gamble for two weeks consecutively,  but unknowingly for me I am already in the third week without adhering to my own rule.


So this led me to ask the general public if I am gambling too much, although this excess didn't affect my finances in any way since I still managed to come out with little winning at the end of the day and at some level, my losses are still below 30 percent of my set out money.
Sometimes it happens and thats why we need to focus with our gambling habits something this also happens to me but mine is when am busy winning in a particular session that am gambling, I tend to go higher and even forget that I have set a particular boundary that am not supposed to breach and this happens because am of the wins that I get or experience during those period.
