I hope Greece does not make additional goals  Undecided or maybe luck comes to Liechtenstein and makes one goal we have 5 minutes left

Greece didn't play very good yesterday. They managed to score only two goals and they had awful finishes. If they don't improve they will have problems again Bosnia and Herzegovina in the match that will be played in Tuesday.

What a win by England. I think nobody expected that they can score 5 goals against decent Czech Republic team.


After a lot of years of mediocre performance, England has started showing solid performance and playing good football in the matches. I think that a win from their side was sure but a 5 goal scored is very impressing. I hope to see England reaching high in the competition because they need a title after all these years.

I don't think that chatting in the gambling platform is very good.
For me it is very distracting and sometimes I lose my thought and my concentration on gambling because I have looks at the chat. There should be another place to chat with other people that should not be visible when gambling.
4464  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is best practice for gambling?? on: March 23, 2019, 08:08:27 AM
Card games is something that easy to practice. I means, it even don't need real money if OP want to practice to play it. As long he ready and know how it works, he will be ready to gambling in real casino games. Good suggestion to do btw.
There are also card app games that you can practice to become better. Like in poker, some players doesn't know how to play that but because of those apps, you can play it for free and practice on how and what are the basics of it. I've been playing those kind of apps when I'm kinda bored.


Yes, you can use these apps and other mediums where the original money is not involved. For poker and other gambling games, you can also search the youtube and there you will find the complete guide on how to play them along with certain tips and tricks which can help you win.

These apps really help to exercise and prepare your strategy that will be played in a game with real money.
Also, these apps can really put you into the loop of addiction. I remember myself playing in one of this apps for fun and because I was winning I started thinking of playing with real money because I thought that I was missing the change of making money.
4465  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Gambling addiction a disease? on: March 23, 2019, 08:05:18 AM
Gambling addiction cannot lead you to a disease because playing gambling does not have a side effects that will result illness.

Gambling is a disease from its own and it can also lead you in other diseases at next.
All of them are a mix of psychological problems that push you towards addiction. The most important thing that a gambler has to do is try to avoid making company with other addicted people because this will harm his psychological condition more and enforce gambling needs.
4466  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling - A Game of Luck or Strategy on: March 23, 2019, 08:02:25 AM
Gambling includes a wide range of things inside it. Depends on which particular thing you are referring to.
Take poker , it's about skill and luck. Take about lottery it's purely luck, take sports betting again strategy and luck.

Poker has a lot of skill but all the gambling games are strongly correlated to the factor of luck.
You gave some examples and all of them had the factor of luck but some of them the factor of strategy. So gambling is defined by luck and not about strategy because there are sometimes that luck can destroy your strategy.

Introduction is the most important thing to do to the community so that they can understand about cryptocurrency, because now our society still does not understand about cryptocurrency which makes them still confused

The best way of this called introduction is by bringing mass adoption to the society.
I am aware that we call mass adoption again and again and that it is not so easy to be established by even with a small portion of mass adoption we can plant the seed that will make cryptocurrency market evolve.
4468  Economy / Economics / Re: Don't stress too much due to the bear market on: March 23, 2019, 07:55:58 AM
I made so many mistakes during the last bear market (2014-16). So I don't want to repeat those mistakes. But at the same time, I want to engage in some form of partial profit booking.

This means that you have learnt from your mistakes and this is the most crucial in order to make the best decisions in this market.
If you have been in a same situation in the past and the moves that you made were proven wrong then you should avoid making them again. Just be relaxed and wait until we hit a better price.
4469  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: March 23, 2019, 07:53:42 AM


Pogba with his behaviour is not for a club like Man.Utd. The best option is to sell it. But now is not too much high-quality alternative for his position. Anyone to bring to replace him will need at least a year to adapt.

Ander Herrera will be also be able to leave for free this summer. It is said that PSG is close to signing him.


PSG will never be able to compete at the biggest stage if these are the kind of signings they keep making, Herrera is definitely a great talent, but can he be counted on when the biggest occasion arise ? I doubt that! And also he's not of any difference when compared to Andrien Rabiot who even happens to be of younger age, and would be leaving as a free agent.

Maybe they need them for a backup.
Indeed, Herrera is not currently the best player to join the first team of Paris Saint Germain. I believe that it is a good way to sign talents and give them the chance to grow their skills in the team with training, or learning from bigger players.

New systems in the world of economics are not a threat, but a new system such as bitcoin must be adopted to help overcome problems when using fiat currencies. I imagine in the future there will be digital form like a crypto, this will be a very perfect progress in the world of economy.

Fiat currencies will exist forever and it is very unlikely for bitcoin to be adopted by all nations.
It is good for both ecosystems to be harmonized and the one help the other in order to help the economic growth of the global society and push economic growth forward.

Low price of Bitcoins will attract new people to join the rally, now that a lot more people can afford to buy a ''Full Bitcoin''

I wish I was here back at 2015 and read your post and follow your statement.
Unfortunately, I joined the community much later and I didn't join the rally. I hope that they same is going to happen in the future as now it is a good buy to accumulate bitcoins.
4472  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Season on: March 22, 2019, 03:06:47 PM
Warriors look unbeatable now, again they win convincingly against the struggling pacers.
It was a 23 points win and all the starters are in double digit.
They didn't have high minutes tonight since they control this game, but with their form now and being healthy, looks like the 3-peat is coming.

They seem to gain a stable performance and I think that they will win again the NBA title.
In the regular season everyone struggles to win the Warriors this is why they don't have the best results between other teams in the League. Now that we enter the playoffs things will be more transparent for them.
4473  Economy / Economics / Re: Ethic & Sustainable Mining on: March 22, 2019, 02:49:02 PM
Critics overwhelm the Crypto Mining Industry on POW blockchains. Although BTC runs the safest blockchain, it's the most polluting one.
Mining companies can make Thousands if not millions of dollars with almost no employees.
Mining companies can provoke problems in their communities due to the amount of energy usage.

How can we make Mining Operations more sustainable?

Redirecting part of profits towards the problem they cause? Eg: Sustain or fund environmental impact businesses.
Going 100% solar/renewable energy?

How can all the critics be countered? How can we create an ethical mining sector?

It is just a marketing technique to spread FUD in the crypto community.
You know the cryptocurrency industry is not polluting the environment as cars/factories do. There are so many other entities that absorb more power and pollute the environment compared to mining farms.

Don't be naive and adopt the opinion that mining is not environmentally friendly. A mining farm and be supported 100% from solar/renewable energy.
4474  Economy / Economics / Re: Cryptocurrency - future? on: March 22, 2019, 02:27:00 PM
The most important aspect of the future of cryptocurrencies is that it will become a way of payment methods at least for online shops and markets.
I think that this feature is going to happen in the coming years it will happen something similar to paypal, skrill and so other services that started rapidly without even noticing that.
4475  Economy / Economics / Re: Future of Bitcoins - What will happens to BTC on: March 22, 2019, 02:22:22 PM
Bitcoin will stay as a commodity or store of value in the future and not as a currency. It will spike up more because it is  very precious considering that it is the first establise crypto that has been made and it will stay as the mother of the cryptocurrency market.

My opinion is that this is my personal statement for the future of bitcoin. Bitcoin is and will be a way of storing value instead of the real gold. It is a digital gold that gives an alternative to people who can't buy gold, to have a gateway for buying crypto.
The future is very promising and it will sustain for many many years.
4476  Economy / Speculation / Re: When Will Bitcoin Be Back To $20,000 ? on: March 22, 2019, 01:50:42 PM
It is struggling to hold on to the $4000 barrier at the moment. Hopefully things will continue to improve slowly but surely.
you're right, the current price is really unstable, and still struggling to keep the price of $ 4000. maybe when this is normal, the price of bitcoin will return to the price of $ 4100 or even more. I hope, this month the price has returned to normal.

In my humble opinion the bitcoin price is really stable during the last months. It is a huge time period where the price is moving between 3500 and 4000 which is a normal price range.
Also, you cannot say what is normal or not in a trading environment. For you normal may be 20k but for another investor with different perception normal could be 1k.
4477  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Game of Thrones - Who will rule? Odds and betting discussion [Odds updated!] on: March 22, 2019, 11:02:43 AM
Personally, I think that the throne will get back to the Baratheon family where it all started.
I don't think that all the favorites are going to rule, Jon Snow, Danearys, Bran, Sansa etc will probably all die while fighting the Whitewalkers.

I would be happy to see such a situation in the show and I will probably bet for it. It is a value bet for me!

Baratheon family? You are aware that the bastard gendry is the only living baratheon now right? So that's highly unlikely. Spoilers seem to be popping up quite often now though most of them are questionable lol. Just a few more months guys lol.

Of course I am aware and he is the guy who I was pointing out that he is going to take the throne!
I am glad that someone realized that! I would love to see Stannis taking over the iron throne but he is dead, so Gendry is going to work for me. I don't think that there is no reason that they kept him alive all these seasons. He may be a key role in the TV series.

Gendry is not a king material. How can someone who spent all his life forging weapons can suddenly turn as a ruler. However, there is a possibility that throne may return to Baratheon family but who can become ruler? Well, yes Stannis Baratheon and who else! But he's dead! Well, did anyone see his head detaching from his body when Brienne of Tarth wield her sword? Who knows if Brienne actually killed him or there was some sentimental conversation among them and she let him go. Anything is possible!

By the way, my vote is on democracy! GoT will end with the end of monarchy and democracy will rule the seven kingdoms.  Grin

This show has surprised us many times. Jon Snow wasn't a king material but they managed to make him with the story of his past.
We don't know very much about Gendry's past. Some episodes may reveal several things that may connect him with the Iron Throne. It is just my assumption and my thought.
4478  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2018-2019 on: March 22, 2019, 10:55:48 AM
Juventus vs Liverpool or Juventus vs Barcelona final would be the best!

City vs Barcelona is my take.
Barcelona is always on the top without struggling too much. Also, Manchester City should go to the final for once and i think that this season is their chance. Guardiola can make this team to win the Champions League for the first time.
4479  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: March 22, 2019, 10:04:37 AM
Recently i was watching sport news and on the press confrence Pogba say he was happy in Man Utd but he say again someday he want to play at Madrid because Madrid is the team that soccer players always dream of and play at there and some of people thought this statement the sign that he would leave Manchester United this season

This statement happened on purpose in my opinion.
Pogba chose to do that now that Zinedine Zidane is sitting on the bench of Real Madrid. Zidane has already stated that he wants some French players to join his team next season.

I wouldn't be surprised in Pogba will leave Man Utd for another club next season.

For the past months I’m too depressed about my losses since I came in this market unprepared. I try not to be active but the market looks inviting me again to be more responsible for what I’ve done and to do better this time.

Bitcoin started to pump slowly, though its not enough to get back my losses but I think there’s a reason why I should stay. I know I’m not the only one here who lose money but still trying to do their best to have some profit. Thank you to this forum, i was able to rise again and this time I will believe more on the future of bitcoin! Continue to hold!

Edit: I lose almost $2000 before both in trading and in gambling, I know its quiet small for you but that’s a lot of money for me. Thanks to those who help me to survive on this one.

I was working for cryptocurrencies and I started to do so during Spring 2018. You can realize that it was disastrous for me because I didn't exchange my compensation for fiat currency and I have suffered big losses in terms of real money.
I was prepared for that and I do not panic. I wait for the rise to continue my investing activity.
