Just documenting this here for posterity: Sanders dropped out so it's Biden vs Trump in November.

https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/08/politics/bernie-sanders-drops-out/index.html

@suchmoon yea I read the news too and we all knew that this announcement was coming soon, and it also makes sense for him to back down now as the Democrats can rally behind Biden, and collectively attack Trump on the way he’s handled the coronavirus issue. It’s also pertinent to note that Trump won’t win the elections easily, and in my personal opinion Biden has a good chance of winning it if the situation doesn’t improve in America soon.

And yeah, looks like the Serie A executives want to resume the league asap and they're going through different options. I found this one: https://www.football-italia.net/151894/extreme-idea-serie-all-rome
*Play all the games in Rome.

And this one: https://www.repubblica.it/rubriche/spycalcio/2020/04/08/news/la_serie_a_ora_copia_il_piano_della_bundesliga_-253473276/
*Play behind closed doors. Less than 300 people in stadiums including reporters. League could resume in first week of June.
From the given news, Serie A has been under considerations to be replayed in the South, at Rome where there are less problems with the virus. And the Serie A might be replayed in June, it is one month later the plan of Bundesliga. But it is a plan and nothing will happen if the nation won't fight well against the virus and the government won't lift the lockdown order in the nation. From those plans (of Serie A and Bundesliga) we know that they really want to finish the season if there are opportunities to do that.

@tomahawk9 I’m really surprised to know that Italian League is planning to play again so soon, considering the fact that Italy is one of the worst effected countries due to Covid19. Furthermore Italian League model can be replicated by other leagues too, as I’m sure that they’ll be able to find some stadiums which are coronavirus free and then they can arrange to play their remaining games there.

Am I the only one who thinks that it's a bad ideas for the Premier League to re-open only to be played behind closed doors? I mean not ticket sales, merchandise sales even advertising will be low. It's not a good idea in my opinion. I think it's best if football is postponed indefinitely till we're certain that the war against the pandemic is over. When the dust has settled, only then should the Premier League be allowed to be resumed.


You're making a point there I mean is just not football if the most important players aren't present (the fans) they serve as extra energy to the 22 players on the field when they need motivation to continue playing.


I’m eagerly waiting for the Premier League to resume again, but I too don’t want to see it behind closed doors as without the the fans cheering or booing the players those matches will seem really dull.


There is crazy idea to play rest matches of the season in China's mainland, it is terrible idea and I don't support it.
Yeah and I don't think Chinese government will allow foreigners to enter the country with the Pandemic condition that has infected all countries.

@Strongkored well I feel that China will definitely be open to hosting the premier league out there, because they’ll earn tremendous amount of money, and since their economy has already been hit I’m sure that they’ll be more than happy to allow the premier league to resume their season out there.

Casillas is a true legend of the game. He has had a terrible time in his personal life over the last 12-18 months if you research it & he still wants to help people.

What a man!

I’ll second that as I remember very well that even when Mourinho treated him badly he didn’t do any drama, simply turned up for training and he quietly left Real Madrid after all those glorious years.

Yes, please. Follow the Tweet.  Wink
Andrés Iniesta and Carles Puyol think it's a good idea and they talking about organizing the event. Some fans asked to integrate the team to Ronaldinho and happily, today he has been released from jail after paid a bail of $800,000.
Thanks to Iker Casillas for brightening our day!

We can't actually tell but there is a possibility that Satoshi is still alive and waiting for the right time to reveal his or their real identity. He or their group is still hiding without any trace, but if he or they doesn't want to actually reveal their identity, we can just let them enjoy their precious life.


We can't really know, I'll stick with what I think his current state right now, he is dead, coz if he really ain't then he should have sold his bitcoin way back 2017. There is a high chance that Hal is Satoshi since he was the first ever to receive a bitcoin after it was created, and I can't contain to myself that if you are the creator of one thing then you should test it on your own, so there's Hal. And I don't think Satoshi would be too clever if he does not know this guy. Perhaps, we don't need that much information for the creator of bitcoin.

It’s that time of the year where someone has to raise this question, and after all the debates that will take place no one will know for sure what happened to him and neither will we agree on one common answer. Furthermore i don’t have much of a theory because each time I read they have found him, it only leads to disappointment as was the case when I believed that Dorian Nakamoto was satoshi but it turned out to be a false positive.

4486  Other / Politics & Society / Trump stunned the Indian PM, but it’ll definitely pay off in the long run!!! on: April 07, 2020, 01:18:56 PM
I really liked how Trump forced the Indian PM to hand him over the medicine that US badly needs to fight against COVID-19, and the best part is that he first made a kind request, and then immediately followed it by a threat which forced the Indian PM to immediately back down in matter of hours and comply with his request.

With this move he’s once again proved to the American people that he can get the work done, considering India has such a huge population and yet they’re forced to give US the medicine.

In the long run if this medicine cures Corona then he’ll definitely benefit in the form of votes, and he’ll win the elections easily.

Has anyone checked the pace between reaching each 10 million bets? They keep sharing at every single 10 million bets all the time but I have not seen any data to show how quickly it became from zero to 10 million first, then 10 to 20, 20 to 30 and so forth, it is only 36-37 times if anyone wants to check but honestly I am too lazy to do it myself.

I am pretty sure it peaked somewhere along the way but feels like not so much fast as it used to be nowadays, during that period of 150-250 million somewhere along those lines it felt a lot faster, or maybe I just got used to it being this fast and now it doesn't feel like fast anymore even though it is around the same speed. With everyone staying at home right now, I feel like maybe it should became a bit faster.

@Emitdama even though I haven’t manually checked those numbers, but theres no doubt in my mind that all those stats provided by them here are true. Also they were able to get these many bets because of their smart marketing strategy, wherein instead of one big competition they kept on announcing small competitions and those small competitions got them rich dividends.

I am damn sure the price of BTC will reach atleast 12k before halving. Just have some patience and wait..

we can't wait too much, it's only 39 days before the halving - https://www.buybitcoinworldwide.com/bitcoin-clock/
The world is still in panic right now, it's a big hindrance for us achieving that good price, we might see the price slowly recovers but to pump that high, I am not sure now as anything there could be another dump because the economy is getting worst and that information could be use by whales to cause some big panic again.
prices recovered quite quickly, only before halving reached $ 12k under these circumstances, it seemed quite difficult. within a span of 40 days, I think the price of bitcoin will only approach the price of $ 10k. Well, that is my prediction, but hopefully, the price exceeds that. however, if the price of bitcoin reaches $ 12k before halving in the middle of this pandemic, I think the price could be higher when this pandemic disappears.

@Free1bitco.in due to coronavirus it’s becoming impossible to predict where bitcoin prices will end post halving, but there’s a growing sense of optimism too in the crypto market that we will see a upwards movement in bitcoin prices pre and post the halving period. Furthermore it seems that many low quality miners have been wiped out, and that could further help bitcoin prices rally upwards once the halving event begins.

Other sportsbooks have started to put in a lot more esports into their systems but from what I see stake hasn't really caught up just yet, I know your sportsbook is brand new and you haven't had the chance to actually make it work because shortly after you guys started your sportsbook there was this pandemic and that is why you are not really prepared, but you have mentioned that you will add in more esports in the future, could you please take a look into it already?
That depends on what their provider is offering, while their esports line aren't the best I still think it's good enough since they have cashouts and very small limits .

Which games are you specifically betting on? I've checked other sportsbooks to see what games they were missing and it doesn't seem there's much of a difference except for some online hockey(NHL) and markets like the alternate handicaps and totals.

@jostorres normally if you need your sports book provider to add a particular game then you need to specify that games name, and therefore I would suggest you to specify what particular game are you looking for so that they can check and add it for you.

I was looking for quite sometime to invest into their coin BNB, and I might consider buying one soon.

I’m not surprised to see Binance name popping up a lot as they’re trying to build a positive image of their brand, because after last years hack their reputation did take a hit. @isaac_clarke22 it’s not a bad idea to buy some BNB, but make sure you’re buying other crypto’s too as a diversified portfolio will always help you generate more money.

its not fair, and y'all appear to be paid bots or persons on behalf of freebitcoin site, i have played a true fair random number from random.org on a 1 - 10000 range for 6 hours, and i never got a streak of even 8 loses (under 5k) or a streak of 8 wins (above 5k) have u ever won 30 times? if the probability is almost the same, then some day you could win 20 or 30 times, but this wont happen!! never!!, bullshit, anyways i wont bet again.

Then you shouldn't be playing dice anywhere for money, because these streaks are very common.

The chances of getting such a streak again are quite large on sites with house edge of 5% or higher (it's even very common on sites with lower house edge), 'cause there is a huge range of numbers you can't win on when you place x2 bets (in this case you can't win when hitting numbers between 47.50 and 52.50). But again, you shouldn't falsely accuse casinos for being unfair, it will only make you look bad.

I’m not sure who you’re calling bots or paid persons as I can clearly see many legendary members, and other high ranking members have tried and explained to you but you seem hell bent on not understanding their views. I hope this line will help you verify and prove why others are right:

Smart move would be to start new round of trash talk. When everything with the virus would be finished, imagine how super pumped these fights would be Cheesy

I don’t know why is everyone suddenly so keen for events to be held in China, as two days before it was some unknown premier league which suggested that the premier league shifts to China, now you’ll too think that UFC should shift to China and in my personal opinion shifting to China is a horrible idea. @TopTort777 usually I don’t like their trash talks, but since we can’t see any action right now we might as well hope that they’ll do lot of thrash talks, as that’ll definitely make the fights more entertaining to watch once it resumes.

Suddenly few YouTube channels have popped up wherein they are also broadcasting old IPL matches and Indian matches where India has won. I guess they are cashing into the demand of cricket crazy nation under lockdown.

You mean they are showing full 20 overs or 50 overs matches and not only the highlights ?  Is this thing really working and people really enjoy watching the old match in full ?  Very strange for me.
@UmerIdrees StarSports never telecast matches in which Pakistan won because they have biggest market in India and this can hurt them very badly so right now they are telecasting all matches those won by India against Pakistan in World Cups TenSports Pakistan based channel it telecasting matches which are won by Pakistan in world cups and other events.

@BitSat19 I haven’t switched on the sports channel as there’re no live matches to watch, but I’m aware that StarSports is doing this as my friend had send me a link regarding it, and I feel it’s unethical to show only one team winning, they should be impartial and show other teams winning against India too. Further now the only time these two teams will clash is the Asian cup provided it’s not canceled due to covid-19.

...This must be a phishing attempt...

I just checked my FJ account correctly and indeed there is a no deposit bonus promotion currently ongoing but still, it can be, that @Indymoney got a phishing email because I haven't received an email, only a message in the FJ account about this offer after login.


https://fortunejack.com/

@Indymoney if you indeed got an email and provided link is not good, despite you are using the correct password, then this is for sure a phishing attempt,

As I have stated before change your FortuneJack password ASAP.

HINT
Check the link you got in the email, to do this just bookmark FortuneJack login page URL and compare both of them.


@Indymoney
If you use that password on other websites you should consider changing it as soon as possible. FortuneJack has not sent such mails. I just checked the email registered with my FJ account and there is nothing.

It is a very bad security practice to click on links in emails and enter your login credentials. What you should have done is to visit the official site and check there if there is an active promotion going on.


^ Thank you for knowing us here but I think that is a phishing scam attempt and probably your email address now is vulnerable to hackers.
Probably it is good if you show it here the message that you received and what looks like or something image of a screenshot.
Nevertheless, the comment above was right. Let us just wait for the official announcement of their support team if this legit or not.

@Indymoney as others have correctly said here this is indeed a phishing mail, and if you see all FJ mails before they were never so colourful which should have made you suspicious and you should not have clicked the link. Also it’s the weekend and they normally don’t provide support over the weekend so you’ll have to wait for their answer, and do make sure that you provide them with all the details so they may whitelist your IP address. Furthermore as you have been suggested do change your passwords asap, and I would even suggest you to check your device for viruses and clean them asap in case they’re found.
