Good to see an achievement that is most desired and that requires a lot of hard work, I remember when I was an undergraduate year back, and I know that feeling of finally becoming a graduate and collecting your NYSC certificate.

-It feels like the certificate is your freedom at last from all the training that come with the undergraduate program to becoming independent and working to earn money for yourself.

Blood sheds an attribute of an automatic leader who forces his will on the citizens and the government will lack legitimacy and this form of rolling is evident in am Africa where the leader gets into power with the help of rigging elections and the use of thugs for political oppression.

-But in advanced democratic states it is not so.

Really can't wait for the Liverpool vs Manchester City match tomorrow, this is one of the most looked forward to matching of the season and at that, I am going to make some bets but my confusion is if I will be able to. Select the right club that will win the match.

-But even as that has been said, football is an u. Predictable game and at that there is the possibility that my most preferred club will not win.
Manchester city and liverpool are equal at this moment. Seeing how city was always so difficult to dominate the match against liverpool has been proving if liverpool is a big club that is difficult to be beaten. The match will be having a high tension, manchester city will not even try to miss three points and Liverpool too. This gonna be another hard match to predict. The main concern is how either of clubs manchester city or liverpool will be playing without their best players due to the injury.

This is also affecting the performance from both of clubs in upcoming games.

It's quite hard to believe if manchester city will be losing easily while at the same time even though liverpool's performance is quite bad at this moment but this team is always become a strong team when it comes to fighting with another big team in EPL


You are right and despite being a Liverpool fan and how there have performed last season I am sure Manchester city may be an easy game for Liverpool to win at this stage of the premier league.

-But this may be a very tough match for Liverpool and tomorrow is indeed a big day for them now that their current state is not appealing due to declining performances in their matches.
4784  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: March 31, 2023, 11:22:25 PM
the current odds for Manchester City are 1.65 and 5.00 for Liverpool, actually I don't think it's wrong to have a double chance in this match although there are indeed a few to consider.
I will also try for both teams to score goals in this match because in my opinion, this possibility can be at stake.
From the odds you can tell we're the nodes are connecting to in this situation giving Liverpool 5 odds is so unspeakable and a considerable good risk to take, as the fear is that, its potential losses are higher than the possibility of Liverpool winnings.

-So most gamblers will go for Manchester straight winning even though the odds are smaller.

I've always gone for the casinos that have their customers representatives active here, at least by this, I can guarantee that I will get a response quickly if anything should go wrong and need urgent help - not like contacting customer care through the casino and then waiting for more than 1 week to get a response.
Yes that way, you can get customer support aside from the one you get on the site and also have the chance to explain your case in detail to the rep here than on the site.

-That casino that creates an ANN thread and there after goes inactive is always related to scams and if you check their reputation,  you will see that one or two cases are standing against them.

If a casino does not care about its reputation on Bitcointalk, you better do not deposit!
Exactly the reason why most casino doesn't have traffic from this forum ithatse potential players may be looking out for the most recent update from the casino rep on the forum to know the current state of things with the casino and also get first-hand information about the casino.

--Being active is one of the essential attributes of serious casinos, that way they get to solve issues on time.

When you lose a bet the casino generate income from four shaking amount, this is many among other ways that casino generates income, but then we must have to understand that gambling is a big business that requires a lot of capital to begin with and that could be seen in the company liquidity supply.

-casinos have to hire promoters according to their capacity and by doing that they must make sure to have generated huge income and their reserve could stand against any crisis.

It's understandable to have concerns about taking out a loan to purchase a property, especially if you're in a long-term relationship or uncertain about future job opportunities. Researching the housing market and consulting with a financial advisor can also help make an informed decision.

Their future economic situation depends on various factors and at that before ops should take any long-term decision such as acquiring a property with the girlfriend he is not certain of being with in the future should be something he needs to avoid from now because this may result in many things that both ops and everyone involved may not like the future outcome.

-taking a loan to purchase a property may not be the right thing to do, but then again we may see a couple of reasons why that may happen e.g getting a new job or having a baby that needs extra room.

My condolence goes to those who have lost their lives and proqperties in this fire outbreak, but the fact that fire incidence are natural occurrences made it hard for individual analysis of the fact that this is a natural occurrences made it glaring that there is no need for more discussion unless we want to raise aid for those affected by the fire outbreak in the popular market which has affected many traders.

Gambling quotes are just for fun and not to inspire any one to gamble but if you gamble it should be done responsibly.
Of course, but no one has to motivate to gambler. Gamblers' presence in gambling automatically increases. Since covid 19, gamblers have emerged like never before in the history of the world. Here, no one can rectify an addicted gambler until he realizes  himself. After all I will not say stop  gambling because if some one played within controlling themself then there is no chance of major loss. A gambler should not consider a gambling as a source of income.
One of the things that the covid-19 has helped gamblers with is the fact that they now have to rely on online crypto gambling and this had increase the level of players involved in gambling games lately, but then we have to set the record straight with the right motivation and words of encouragements.

-Gambling is not an easy task and at that, we need to put a lot of things in place, such as current economic situations and the rest of the other factors we need to consider while gambling.
4792  Other / Politics & Society / Re: I love politics and I want to be clean politician! on: March 31, 2023, 03:37:18 PM
You have just spoken like the conventional politicians we have in our various countries, so well endowed with sweet words and promises made yet undone after being given the sit of power. Every politicians by there words had a good mindset at first when they haven't tasted power not until they did that was when their real mindset whisked out be it good or bad. Like the political scientist will say, "power corrupt but absolute power corrupts absolutely". So let wait until in the future you hold on to power then we can really say by your performance that you do have a good mindset in politics as a politician. But for now, am in doubt.
No good leader will announce his own good will, only the citizens can attest to whether you are good or not and with the way you lead that is what makes a good leader, because ops just made a statement base on his feelings about himself, not the way other perceive him if he ever becomes a political leader.

-One fact with the need to settle with is, politics is a dirty game so at that 90% of its players must play dirty since the system is designed to make them so, the high rate of corruption in our various countries has proven that no politician is free of corruption so ops should wait he gets that chance to lead to see how his ability could fight against his corruption system.

@OP
can you indicate the source from which you got this list of people at risk?


@Davidvictorson
it's useless to say that most of the times they are just advertising a scam site or trying to earn few bucks with their referral Wink in any case, avoid to join if you're not sure what you're doing.
Fact that everyone have right to a decision makes it easy for us to overlook some things, with basic skills and experience we should be able to differentiate between legit and scam project no matter who is promoting them.

-one of the ways to avoid drama is to make your own decision and don't get carried away with others' points of view or sweet stories, and most importantly we should avoid being greedy since greed has become the major cause of addictions lately.
4794  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Any casino site offer Ludo game? on: March 31, 2023, 03:16:03 PM
Ludo is not attractive to me and I don't play it in real life if a casino should include Ludo in their games it may not attract many players to the said casino and that is why we have limited to zero ludo game casinos.
Still confused as to how reasonable it is to have LUDO games on casino sites but it must be accepted that LUDO is a huge entertainment game. And in real life one can hardly find a person who doesn't play LUDO. But we don't know how much impact this will have on the casino site.  Maybe it's not related to casino sites so casino sites don't put LUDO on their site even though LUDO is a hugely popular game.
It will be so reasonable to put the ludo game in casinos, but I don't think they would want to do that. No controversy, the game is good for the brain and entertaining at the same time. But it might be difficult for casinos to put it in their pile of games because it's too fair, there is no way they can maintain "the house win" in this regard.

Therefore, it might be disadvantageous to them to associate with such a fair game.
Ludo is a very good game most especially its ability to entertain amateur players makes it the most house own game but the fact that Ludo is a traditional game makes it inappropriate to include in the casino because that will give room for more gambling addiction within the household and even children since ludo is the most played family game.
4795  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto currency purchases on: March 31, 2023, 09:23:32 AM
Most time I have to exchange bitcoin for local currency before being able to spend them in my country since bitcoin payments are not yet widely accepted unless on a p2p arraignment since bitcoin is not her accepted as a legal tender and government restrictions on banks vs Bitcoin.

But I have spent some Bitcoin online on an international marketplace and getting the goods shipped to my country, but the local merchant has not fully accepted bitcoin in my country and this has undermined the spread of bitcoin payment.

The next bet is the jackpot, I just formulated this from. Y head and it is inspired by my personal experience in the last couple of games back where I was on a loss and wanted to give up, but the next session brought in the reward this is based on luck anyways and shouldn't be taken as an advise to avoid excessive gambling that could lead to addiction.

Gambling quotes are just for fun and not to inspire any one to gamble but if you gamble it should be done responsibly.
4797  Other / Politics & Society / Re: I love politics and I want to be clean politician! on: March 31, 2023, 08:29:04 AM
I’m going to go ahead and disagree with everyone and say that it is not possible to be a clean politician. This is because the machine behind you will not have the funding and support of industries that would prefer to have a bought and paid-for politician over somebody who might share similar beliefs. I’ve seen corruption even in my local Home Owners Association. I can’t even begin to comprehend the corruption involved with elected government officials.
You are right, corruption has eaten deep into our political system and the foundation and structure of most countries' political system is designed in such that even if the politician wants to be corrupt free the system will force them to, this is no different from the individual level where corruption is glaring in all the dealings.

-So even if the ops said he wants to be a good politician the possibility of him becoming worst than the current leader is still there, but then if he has a good structural foundation the level of the corruption may become small and unnoticeable this depends on the country the ops is from.
4798  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Most likely category of people to become Gambling addicts. on: March 31, 2023, 08:19:32 AM

I think it is not advisable to introduce gambling to people that lack self-control. Being poor or having access to much money is not an excuse for gambling addiction. Anyone that lacks self-control financially will also waste his money on something else. Most people are addicted to earning cheap money which is why they will always be victims of Ponzi schemes. Gambling addiction might lead to drug use or abuse, especially if the gambler is a bad loser or gambles more than he can afford to lose. But it is not a benchmark that all drug abusers are prone to gambling addiction. Generally, I don't think it is advisable to introduce or encourage anybody to gamble. I prefer them to learn it from someone else because gambling could affect people's finance negatively if the act becomes uncontrollable and don't want to be blamed for someone's problems.
My friend Zlantann quite a while, I am excited to read your comments in regards to excuses people give for gambling addiction, most of the addicts failed to accept the responsibility that is entirely their fault for becoming addicts that way, addiction withdrawal and rehabilitation process will be fast and easy.

-Addiction tendency can be detected early and the individual can avoid getting involved in things that could get them addicted such as gambling or substances.
4799  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Change of government on: March 31, 2023, 06:36:28 AM
Most of the time when the opposition wins the election, they will go to postpone all of the ongoing projects of their past opponents because they don't want them to advertise their names through those successful projects and the result is always wrong because the country will delay its progress in every aspect and mostly you can see such happening in the cities and the other provinces that still freeze in time in terms of improvement and other important things.
True talk mate, lack of continuity has hindered the development of many countries most especially in the African political play, when an opposition wins he first cancels all the projects of the predecessor and starts afresh.

-Lack of a national developmental plan has resulted in this, since the elected leaders in Africa do not have a national development plan and blueprint to follow, they tend to do whatever comes into their mind and try to destroy the image of past leadership as the opposition has become the root of many uncompleted national projects and this has affected the pace of development in most African countries.

I can agree with what you say, but maybe he is a billionaire and then losing 1.4 million is peanuts for him. Money management is indeed crucial but far from easy also. It just also shows that there are no real sure bets and that it is never a good idea to bet on such low odds.
Mate no matter what the state of the gambler's financial condition being a billionaire will not make him feel less about a loss such as this, because from the details provided, the gambler has so much confidence in the odds selection and decide to risk staking huge amount having 100% winning expectations.

-It is an entirely bad feeling for anyone in such a condition, because aside from losing the money he may also lose his confidence in odds selection in the long run, $1.4 millions lose is not a joke for anyone.
