I am sorry for your loss OP but I don't remember how many times we have said here to never play in casinos that do not have a positive ANN thread here,filled with only good reviews,instant withdrawals and a lot of promotions going on to keep their gamblers happy.

Only few casinos here fulfill all those conditions and only them are the ones which most of us recommend to play at,these casinos offer anything that most likely it was offered to you at that scam site and even more so again sorry that you learned this the hard way but that's life.

It will be a shocked to see Elche defeat Real Madrid,  if it happens it is a sign to tell Real Madrid can't win laliga this season . Dip down in me I don't believe Elche will have advantage of Real madrid to win. Elche is at the bottom of the standings with last position, I have doubt to see Real Madrid lose this game. Real Madrid needs to fixed up their performance back , so as to continue the competition with an impressive result.
LOL, isn't losing and winning normal for any team? I don't think it's impossible to expect Elche to beat Real Madrid, but it's definitely hard to imagine because Elche is the last team in the standings at the moment.

So try to be calm because Real Madrid will very easily get 3 points in this match even if they are not in their best form recently. I'm just sure that Elche will lose by a high score because Real Madrid will definitely try to get high goals stats instead of just winning. 3 to 4 goals can be expected, and this is a good opportunity to get a bet.

I also think Real Madrid to use this game to improve their stats,Elche is clearly the worst team of La Liga this season and most likely a surprise result won't happen to Real this time.If it does it means that Real chances to get the title for this season will be shuttered for good and their only focus will be on the Champions League this time.

I think that Real has not quit from their fight for the title though and in this game we can expect a lot of goals,Elche defense is vulnerable and they have conceded many goals so at least over 3.5 goals would be an ideal bet in this game.

I have some spare GTX 1660 super GPU when I recently replaced my 2 desktop GPU with 3060 Ti. I plan to use it on mining but the update of Ethereum to PoS makes me loss interest on mining.

What altcoins is the best to mine these days? Is selling GPU is more efficient than use it on mining altcoin nowadays?
The GTX 1660 SUPER is low power and if you are willing to mine coins and not sell it then I would keep mining.
https://www.hashrate.no/gpus/1660s
If you need a good profit right now, then there are no such coins, or I don’t know about it. But it's boring without mining, and I need to sell old video cards.

I think that the best thing to do,get rid of all those 10 series video cards and invest those money in whatever amount of video cards you can buy with that money from the 20 and 30 series.Judging by the characteristics published the 4060 ti is not looking as a good option,the best would be the 4070 if you want to go ahead and buy expensive cards but I remain of the opinion that the best you can do is to buy 3060 ti or the next best thing after it, Rx 5600 or 5700 xt cards.

It is truly boring without mining,I feel a sense of confidence when I see my rig lights and GPU spinning while I feel empty when I see them turned off  Grin.

To many good games to bet in and to get some nice profit from today games in the Premier League.It is one of those weeks where stronger teams are playing against weaker ones and for me I am going to share what I think are good options although I know you probably know that yourself

Chelsea draw no bet
Brighton draw no bet
Tottenham win
Arsenal win

You can play single bets or add them to a parlay,in fact I regret playing single everyone of them,let's go and make a parlay out of them.

Actually, I'm not too curious about ChatGPT and I'm still waiting for further news from each developer. But it seems that this year, big operators like Google, Yahoo, and others are starting to launch this AI-based ChatGPT program. And each operator claims that their AI is better than its rivals.

This will probably speed up the AI trend to the surface as many people are interested in these AI-based projects. And maybe this will also allow gambling developers to develop gambling-based AI, such as collecting sports betting information and inviting people to try it before they launch it to the public.

To predict the outcomes of fights in boxing and MMA, there has been an AI engine for almost a year, as the developers say, which specializes in analyzing data on martial arts called MartialBot, of course it will not answer the question of what gambling is, but the forecast for the fight can be checked.



I highly doubt the accuracy of such tool.The reason for that is that MMA is physical fighting between two persons.No AI or app in the world can know the physical form of each of the athletes,the favorite for example may have been drinking and abusing his physical condition while the underdog maybe preparing at the maximum of his capacity and even going further,in such scenario we would see a surprise result in the betting context as the underdog is going to win the match between these two.Tell me how can the AI or app predict the physical condition and behavior of a fighter?Pretty much worthless and impossible in such case for the MMA.

It's an interesting experience but I'm still looking for someone able to leverage its abilities and skills for real help in gambling, at online casinos or at land based one thanks to a smartphone. But unfortunately I think the level ChatGPT AI is still too low to give a concrete help for any gambling game yet, sadly. Maybe in few years we will see enhanced AI able to do that though.

I don't think it will improve even with a couple of years passing because it is based on just collecting information already available on the internet which even us can search ourselves and it is trained to find this information faster.ChatGPT is good for asking things that we don't know and to get that information faster than if searching at google but it cannot provide any real help for example to make statistical and backed by probability choices that can really help us in sport betting.When this times come it will be a revolution for bettors.
4667  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do casino and sports betting platform owners gamble as much as other people? on: February 10, 2023, 07:10:54 PM
Farmers who have chickens for eggs especially on a large scale, easily get tired of eating the eggs from their chickens or even eggs in general. Caterers get tired of eating their own pastries, just as people who are exposed to certain produce get tired of them due to over exposure. Do you think this experience is the same for casino owners and owners of sports betting platforms?

Do you think that the owners of casinos and sports betting platform, gamble as much as other people do? If they gamble, do you think they gamble on their platform?



I don't know in general but I will tell you a couple of cases of some friends of mine who have worked at some casinos.The owners there used to not play at all,what they did is the same at least in this country,they used to pay for lunch for all the gamblers who stayed there gambling all day and sometimes these very owners got to the slot machine and played with max bet there in order to lure more gamblers as they played like with 100 EUR bet per spin and they played a lot so most people soon after got to the slot the owner played in order to get a good win after the owner lost a lot of money.

I don't know any case that the owners to keep playing and gambling as much as us,gamblers do.

Mclaren is thinking about changing the engine for 2026.
They are probably going to leave Mercedes and go back to Honda with Redbull and maybe more teams.


To me this if true is great news.The glorious times of Senna and McLaren Honda are the most successful years of McLaren in my opinion during their whole history.I know that they failed in a really big way in their first comeback of 2015 and McLaren I think rushed to go back to Mercedes as we all saw what a Honda engine is capable to do if given enough time to their engineers,they won Redbull already two titles in the last 2 years while they are one of the favorites for the upcoming season.If McLaren waited I think they would be fighting for the title in these last years so I hope the comeback of 2026 is a true comeback bringing back the memories every McLaren fan wants to live again.
4669  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Will miners ever rally behind ETHW? on: February 10, 2023, 05:59:22 PM
Have you seen ASICs in ETHW mining?
Ask the Panda miner about this possibility
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2My7aw2cxk
But on the other hand, the number of coins that I receive per day is important for me now. 1 terahash gives 0.737 ETHW per day.
On video cards, the only way to make a profit is to wait for the price to rise.

I mine ETHW with only 0.10 Terahash and I make like 0.073 ETHW daily with the two video cards that I have on.I don't mind mining this low amount as I predict this to take over in the next bull run as an inevitable event.The reason I think so it is reinforced by ETH which since they moved to PoS I haven't heard anything good about them,the community support has gone down dramatically and now is nothing more than a coin run by a gang (stakeholders) and has nothing to do with it being the king of decentralization anymore.

I can wait and I don't care if the wait will be a long one as long as in the end I may get profit.

It will be an interesting match for Arsenal against Brentford tomorrow.I doubt that Arsenal will make another mistake by losing or drawing the game of tomorrow but even if they screw it up that big I am afraid Manchester City has a lot of psychological problems and pressure for them so Arsenal is much better positioned to take the lead title even from this point of view.I am not doubting that they would have any problem even if City had not the problems around them which caused the FA to make an urgent meeting but in this context they are making it super easy for Arsenal to win the title.
4671  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sportsbet.io's English Premier League Football Pool Discussion Thread on: February 10, 2023, 10:23:18 AM
The FA had an urgent meeting with club owners concerning Manchester city scandal. Todd Boehly and co are pushing for quick judgement.

They are right to have an urgent meeting and to push for a quick judgement of the matter.If Manchester is found guilty then most likely it is game over for them in terms of fighting for the Premier League for this season and many more to come depending on how grave is the matter.

I personally am against such big punishment as I don't like to remove a team that always fights for the title in these last years and also does great performance in most of their Champions League games,it would be a loss for football in general if City is punished hard.

Well, there are various rumors about the Marina Bay casino, including about the use of Chinese whales for promotion, which are given to win, and later it turns out that this casino does not use honest methods, perhaps this is already in the past, but just read this for example.

https://www.straitstimes.com/business/companies-markets/marina-bay-sands-paid-a-price-for-courting-chinas-whales

I think these kind of rumors are normal for most of the big casinos.A friend of mine used to work in a big casino several years ago but that it was in a small country.What they did is that they left the slot machines in the beginning to -200% meaning to give players a lot of good results,they left it for three months like that and every guy coming there were saying good things and boasted how big their wins were.After such time passed the technician of the slot machines came and changed that to a default of getting about 47% as an house edge clearly breaking the law but no one gave a damn as the country was a corrupted one and it still is.

So if they use whales from China it could be very well a true story based from my experience of my friend shared here.
4673  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: February 10, 2023, 07:29:24 AM


That interested odds, we know Wolfsburg is not good on the last 2 matches, while Schalke was held Koln and Gladbach. but the number is still leaning toward to Wolfsburg, so if you are brave to Schalke or draw, I think is not a problem, because Wolfsburg is look disorganized after lose on their home. while Schalke even on bottom zone, they have a bit confidence and there is hope to grow up from degradation zone.

Even though wolfsburg has bad performance during last two matches and it doesn't mean schalke is above it. Wolfsburg was able beating some strong team. I strongly believe wolfsburg will able to take full points against schalke easily.
Schalke is only a mediocre team that will be relegated soon. This gonna be an easy match for wolfsburg. I prefer to take a safe bet for wolfsburg rather than schalke.
Schalke may still continue its bad trend caused by i don't see any significant improvements that happened with the club. Wolfsburg seems to be easy money for me.

Schalke so far is the worst team of the Bundesliga,just check their stats and you will see that indeed Wolfsburg is going to have most likely a very easy game tonight.I think the odds are there near 2 to scare us not to bet on this game.

I have bet on Wolfsburg to win as a small amount of money but I have put a lot of money on Wolfsburg draw no bet as I am sure at least Wolfsburg is not going to lose this game despite their bad recent form,as bad as this may be I am sure is not worse than Schalke overall form during this season.
4674  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What most gamblers do. on: February 09, 2023, 08:48:19 PM
I want to ask a question. And I need serious answer from this forum, and my question is WHY DOES A GAMBLER DON'T HAVE A SAVINGS.
In my country (Nigeria) there are many gamblers who don't have savings and it isn't help matters at all. Most of these gamblers can't afford for there families but they can afford money they will use to gamble. So why are they not having savings that they can use to help there families in time of lack. Like they said, we save money so money can save us tomorrow. But these gamblers doesn't know that.

Even if gamblers knew that most likely they will get from that fund to satisfy their gambling needs and this is the nature of a gambler,telling a gambler to save money is like to say to a prostitute to start having morals meaning it does not work like that.

If a gambler were to save money for a better tomorrow he would not be called a gambler but a wise investor,something a lot of people want to do yet very few achieve it.Gamblers gamble to make money fast and they don't think for long term.

In countries like Nigeria then it is even more emphasized as a phenomena due to this country from what I know and read being a poor one.

Pioneers have been minning for the past few years now and the pi is set to gain value this year, as such more millionaires will be made, so Pioneers mine and grab more coins as much as you can , because something big is about happening this year, tho we are not sure but let's be optimistic it will surely happen this year,
As you grabbing pi coins make sure you grab some BTC too so either way we will make this profit together, let's keep minning bro..

This post will not age well for you.

I do let my wife phone which has no important data at all to mine Pi although I know it won't get far.Just read the news all over coinmarketcap and other similar websites and they all have a red disclaimer suggesting to anyone to be cautious and to do due diligence before investing in such coin.I honestly believe this will go nowhere as it lack community support and it does not solve any real life problem at all.

I strongly agree that this post will definitely not age well.

We've been looking at the car reveals without talking about what really matters for you guys itt...  The early lines and outright odds before the start of the season.  Wink

I'm not sure what's really new with the cars technically but if there were some new rules, I think they wouldn't that big of a deal unlike the spec changes from 2021 to 2022.  So these lines should be accurate and reflects the correct price for the drivers and the teams.

Drivers top 3 in the outright to win the championship are Verstappen at 1.73, Hamilton at 4 and Leclerc at 6.25

Constructors at top 3 are Red Bull at 1.95, Merc at 2.40 and Ferrari at 5.75.

So what do you guys think?  Any chance Merc or Ferrari snag the top spot from RBR this year?

Did McLaren screw it up again really bad despite them being the first team to stop development of 2022 car just after 5-6 races into the last season that they are not here?I don't think they would be that bad this year and making a bet on them as the constructor winners this year if the odd is big enough like 13-20 I am giving it a try,if they truly have not improved even though they had more time than any other team to develop their car then most probably they need a complete redesign of all of their staff,layoffs are happening in tech companies,it is time to start happening even in F1 as a tech sport that they are.

From the options here I would go with Ferrari just because of the odd and not that I expect them to be winners this year.

Once again ETHW and many other forks are done by the asic conglomerate.

 Wink

If they are done by the ASICS conglomerate why are we still seeing less than 300 T as a network difficulty for this coin specifically ETHW?I think that ETHW is created by a group of miners,Chinese enthusiast miners from what I heard and the reason is they did not agree with ETH moving to PoS so that is why this was created.

If ASICS were behind this coin we would see a lot of hash rate behind it.Nevertheless the new E9 looks profitable as it makes about 350 dollars monthly so I would buy one if I wanted to started mining right now in a very aggressive way.

You don't know how difficulty works?

More hashpower doesn't mean they make anything more ...
They would compete with themself ...

 Cheesy

I donīt know why you every talking about the low difficulty in the ETHW network. No one care about this. If you want to compare things - compare more properties (difficulty, miner number, network hashrate......)

And where the hell you know that are not ASICīs in the network? Please enlighten us - and again - mining at a loose is not smart - it is stupid  Grin but you only need money to gamble it on stake

I know and I assume that when we are having such a low number of difficulty not that many ASICS are in the network and I did not say that there are no ASICS at all in the network.

Mining at a loss is something that has paid me of by a very large scale of benefit in 2021 as you already know the story that I mined through Nicehash in 2018-2019 when almost everyone shut down their rigs and I sold them in 2021 for the big profit.Last but not least,what's wrong gambling money on Stake  Grin?

Feel free to make all the questions do you want and ask my here from hints for the matchs.
Unfortunately the Argentine League seems too foreign to me, because the crypto gambling site that I bet on, does not contain this year's Argentine League matches, they only show like: Premier League, LaLiga, U20 Liga MX, Taca de Portugal, Morocco Cup, Italian Serie A, Saudi Arabia and others.

But I know several Argentine League teams/clubs, maybe I am very happy if the online casino that I use makes bets for the Argentine League to bet on for its users, so it will be easy for me to learn the best team in the Argentine League to bet on.

Then you should most probably move to one of the biggest sportsbook because every big crypto casino which also offers a sportbook alongside their slot machines and other related casino games have Argentinian league as this is one of the big leagues in the world of betting,they have a lot of teams there and usually every big casino has it.The big crypto ones offer a lot of competitions sorted alphabetically and Argentinian league is always on top of such list because they start with an A in their name.

I am also going further and assuming that most probably that sportbook does not even offer the benefits of the biggest casinos which give you tiers or vip levels alongside your bets,making each one of them count.
4679  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Signs of compulsive gambling on: February 09, 2023, 02:31:18 PM
Many times we are in a situation and we do not not realize the intensity of the problem. One such case is compulsive gambling. In simple words, it means that you are unable to control the urge to get involved with gambling even after understanding the potential harms associated with it.

Here are some signs of compulsive gambling :

1) Gambling related thoughts are always in your mind even when you are working on other activities

2) You keep increasing the gambling related money with each game

3) You try to gamble more in attempt to recover loss

4) Ignoring other important work like job just for gambling

Would you like to add to these signs ? Have you ever found yourself trapped in this situation and how did you get rid of this ?

The number one sign is enough to spark all the next numbers as a compulsive gamer.I remember being in that phase many many years ago where even when I was laying down to sleep my thoughts kept revolving about gambling and about what slot machine I will play tomorrow,during the whole day I kept playing slot machines and this is a clear sign that I was addicted.The only choice to recover from such illness though is if you really want to and no one else can help,maybe in the extreme case recovering in a gambling rehab center would be a good solution to this illness,for many people this is the only option,I was luck though as I recovered myself by a strong will to be a better person and do better things in life than keep gambling.

The reason why it is called Artificial Intelligence is because its not real. It's a man made technology.
So if we are using a man made technology for our bets/trading then we are equally capable of making those bets.
Its just that AI will make it easier for us to do all the research and analysis and I guess if used in a right way then we can get the benefits out of it.
That being said we can use AI but we need to be cautious while using it and make sure we know what we are doing.

It is nothing more than making a research on information that many people like us feed to search engines and AI it is just collecting it to represent to us the choices,the analysis,the news and predictions from many site at once.Nothing that avid gamblers like us cannot do ourselves,I always tend to read a lot of tipping pages before deciding on which event to bet on and I also like seeing statistics from these websites,something that AI so far cannot really do without further fine-tuning by us,human beings so as of yet it cannot help us that much but if they continue to improve it maybe in the future we can see a revolution in sport betting.

In fact the other technology ML-Machine Learning can help us by making some calculations based on the info to present us statistically and with proven probability which option is better to bet,that would be awesome.
