Can these steps make you lucky?!!To win the lottery you must get lucky first of all.
Do you have a way to make you lucky most of the time?

Definitely no. These aren't steps to increase everyone's luck but rather just simply putting all your faith that luck must come to you.

Literally, there are NO steps to increase it but if you really want that "luck" to comes to you, then work instead to increase your winning chances by doing strategic methods or something that is not just a product of random thoughts. But take note, you can't apply that lottery where the only thing you need to do is to bet, sit, wait for results. There is no such thing to increase your winning rate there.

Honestly, those steps listed are easy to do and it's our usual and common behavior every time we gamble. If those steps are effective then maybe there are only a few gambling sites or lottery services operating by now.

Calvin Abueva few more steps away from getting ban lifted - PBA CHIEF

I'm not sure though what's that "few" really means or how long it will be. More importantly, it's progressing and surely Abueva will come back.

PBA must give him another chance even for last time. If he will become arrogant again on the court, then he's done.

Reading Marcial's statement about the process that Abueva goes through...

“He knows this since the start that he has to do this before he can get back. Calvin and I had an agreement that I won’t publicly say what he’ll do and it’s up to him if he wants to come out publicly with what we want him to do.”

.. makes me think that why Abueva's wife told at the interview that PBA must publicly show how the process is done (meaning she didn't know what else need to be done for the ban to be lifted) if in the first place his husband knows it all from the start.

I still do not understand why people think Ben Simmons is a start that makes so much difference to that team.

Maybe because Sixers was a worst team prior to Embiid and Simmons's arrival. The team never taste a playoffs experience for 5 seasons until Simmons came to play (he didn't play on his first season because of injury). It's not that he is the reason why the team rose up but as usual, becoming a Top 1 overall pick always comes up with a good expectation and in fairness, he didn't fail to meet those and played well the whole season. From a trash record for several seasons, Sixers finished with a good record on that year.

Dude is a 16 point player with ZERO three point talent and just scores around the rim all the time, he has some rebounding and assist talents which I can understand why makes him more valuable...

Good thing for Simmons that he is not forcing himself into something he is not capable of. Although yes, in the future he really needs to work on his rainbow shot while he is still young as athleticism fades over time.

... but this dude was compared to Giannis when he first came into the league and was wondering which one would be the next Lebron.

I don't know that Simmons was being compared to Giannis during his first year although not a good comparison for me. Other people just putting too much hype on a new player, as usual, every year.
5024  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: So are we in bullish times or Not?? on: February 25, 2020, 10:07:25 PM
But btc still Low just 9k.

What's should be the price so that you can consider it "high"?

There is news that 2020 is so good for bitcoin and bla h.. Blah.. Bla.

Generally, good for bitcoin - adoption, trends, recognition, etc.

Price should follow but it won't happen overnight.

So all the crypto experts talking we are in bull market ;

So are in bull or Bear market what is the market situation?
If we are bullish then let.me see Green good Green!!


Isn't it usual already that once the price started an uptrend, we can read some analysis that it's now going BULLISH? And if the price experience a downtrend, it's now going BEARISH?

Experts can make a speculation of what will happen based on what the indicators will lead into but it doesn't mean it's accurate. That's where the reference point of most traders. Crypto is volatile and there are lots of times it destroys and wrecked a professional and well backed-up analysis. It does mean that there are lots of factors to consider and not just relying on these so-called experts prediction.

Is the market Bullish? Bearish? Actually you have your own analysis for it. However, if you are not that type of person that doesn't want to do some research, then the best thing to do is to remain patient and just "trust the process".

what can i do to resolve this. i have wrote support but got no responds
this is very annoying
for the moment i advice you to stay clear off coinbase if you don't wan to lose your money

Not supporting Coinbase but at least they should give you a notice on why it happened. Although there are related cases in the past wherein accounts were frozen out of nowhere, on your case, we can't just conclude that it was the same. Sometimes, the user itself isn't aware that they already violate some of the terms.

You have no choice but to wait for their response. How long are you waiting now?

Update us here once they respond.
5026  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online gambling or Casino gambling? on: February 25, 2020, 09:04:36 PM
I'm not a social animal tbh and this gives everyone an idea of my preference - online gambling only. I don't like watching those faces around me, not even those babydoll-type-girls coming around me touching and distracting me from the game to make me lose my bet. I play European roulette sometimes and you know that if we visit a casino personally to do that, those girls would blow you up badly and encourage you to play more even if you don't want to..

Believed it or not, those babydoll-type girls you are referring aren't the always thing that you will see in physical casinos. Maybe you saw lots in movies, commercials, ads but it's all different in actual. As I mentioned, I've been in physical casinos several times before and those girls or other related stuff will just show for let's say during a casino event, special day or when the casino is crowded and jampacked. And no such thing as strangers watching behind you how you play. Gamblers there is focus and they don't mind other people's activity.

And there is no force play there although we can say only "a bit" but not to the point that they will encourage you. Casinos do have responsible gambling advice banners to all their visitors. You can see it around the whole area in most cases. The one that will make you encourage to play more is the casino itself especially once you hooked up with the beauty of the machines, the relaxed environment especially at normal days (sometimes with free snacks and drinks lol), and the source of addiction, once you hit the big amount of winnings.

Anyways, this is just my self-experience.

Uo bossing sinubukan ko ulit ang nangyayari nag sa successful na ang Loading pero nag  auto deductions a PHP amount ko kahit na nasa BTC ako nag buy load,and nag reply ang support na sa PHP nalang daw pwede magload hindi sa BTC.

na check mo po ba bossing kung hindi nabawasan PHP amount mo matapos ka mag load last time?kasi sakin ganon ang nangyari na akala ko ay pwede na ulit tulad ng dati pero hindi na pala.

Walang laman PHP wallet ko bro. Pero gaya ng sabi ko sa taas, sa desktop mode ako nagbuy load that time. So para maverify kung pati sa mobile app ganyan din, nagtry ako kanina at oo nakapag-purchase pa rin ako ng load without manual conversion from BTC to PHP. Mas mataas iyong niload ko kaysa sa funds ko sa PHP wallet. Gawan ko ng video pag kailangan ko na ulit mag load.

Di kaya may certain amount? Or kapag kulang funds sa PHP? Kasi kung mandatory sa system na dapat nasa PHP ang balanse sa pagloload, dapat di nagprocess iyong transaction ko. Example dati sa GCASH Instapay, nung unang nilagay iyong feature ng direct to BTC withdrawal, nag stuck-up ang transaction pero automatic naman nabalik. Need iconvert talaga sa PHP para maprocess.

Kung paulit-ulit ganyan bro hayaan na at talagang need na talaga mag-convert na lang sa PHP.

Lets share some intel and help each other, where are the best sources to learn about the eSports opportunities, biggest tournaments, betting bonuses and special events.

Bitcoin eSsports betting is the future and it will be much fun !!!

Actually, lots of sources that people can follow and some of those are already mentioned at some of the replies here.

Just a suggestion, to maximize people's chances of winning every bet, they need to know how the team members handle well their respective roles, main and sub. Yes, a literal checking of the players itself.  Not a mandatory one, but it's a must that people really know the game for them to understand the game nature.

Esports actually isn't the next big market because it's already big and still expanding. The fact that the prize pool for every competition is insane, support from the big institutions, Esports was also listed for the first time as part of Southeast Asian games which held in our country is already a big recognition.

I think this should be on "Gambling Discussion" but if I'm not mistaken, there's some related thread to this.



a little tips from me,better to bet a live bet rather than place bet early.

Can you detail why ?

The same scenario applies to a live sports game.

There is a thing called "turning-point" and it always happens in PVP-based games.
5029  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online gambling or Casino gambling? on: February 25, 2020, 07:16:29 PM

Since it's about "gambling" after all, there should be no comparison nor choose only one I prefer.

I've been in the physical casino several times now with my friends but never experienced yet the ambiance of the so-called "high-class casinos". In this place, people can't just enter easily even they have decent money on-hand. They should follow some sort of "requirements" before getting entry.

Whatever the reason, advantages or disadvantages, it's still a good experience to somehow feel how to bet in a physical casino. Online casino is just there, our working stations is just there, we can play wherever we want, wherever we like, according to our desired time, unlike in physical casino that you need to spare your precious time just to go there.

5030  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you borrow money as your bankroll if you trust your skills in gambling? on: February 25, 2020, 06:43:49 PM
I am currently thinking of making an experiment on my own, I have friends who are willing to lend me money for whatever purpose I like.
For this purpose, I like to use the money that I will borrow as the bankroll in sports gambling.

Anyone here have tried this? What can you recommend?

I never tried this and will never consider this. I want to gamble with my own money. Even I'm confident with my sports betting strategy and analysis, I still won't consider that plan. But still, it's your decision in the end as people have different reasons why they are considering getting a loan for gambling purposes.

That's not an advisable nor recommended thing to do but the fact that your friends are willing to lend you money "for whatever purpose" you like, even for gambling, means that they are trusting you and confident that you will able to pay back the loan.

Actually, we aren't in the position to just say "NO" to you since only you can tell if you can pay the loan in time. We don't know your other earning-method stuff, we don't know your financial capability, however, in case of being busted while doing gambling or whatever happened along the way, you need to keep your words that you will pay back the amount and don't ruin your reputation and friend's trust just because of that. Good luck mate and put everything you have got to make a fearless analysis on your future bets.

And the worst aside from that Pacers' horrible performance, one of their player, Jeremy Lamb suffered a season-ending injury. So unfortunate.

They couldn't do anything in the play-offs anyway. Maybe that would be better for them. Tanking and rebuilding must be considered.

Pacers are currently having a good run overall so tanking at this stage isn't a good idea and I don't see any advantages in the future if they will do that. They are 13 wins ahead on the 9th and 9 wins ahead on the 8th. That proves "a bit" that they shouldn't be taken easily by other teams although we can really expect that there's a chance they might not pass the 1st round. If for let's say the current standing will not change, they will meet the Boston Celtics in the first round. NBA is half-way now and if a team is having a quiet good record at that point, push for it until the end. That Lamb's injury is not a reason for them to raise the flags early.

Actually, the talks about if Pacers will do something good in the playoffs is because of their recent horrible performance against the Raptors that shouldn't be a reference in the first place.



I like to bump my previous bet challenge here; will Pelicans make it to playoffs?

I'm with NO for BTC0.005.

Zion is doing great now so there's a chance that the Pelicans can make it. Will accept the deal for 2 users only.

Accepting challenge until Friday 23:59 forum time. Just for fun guys. Smiley

Yun nga ang problem eh di ko kaya icomply dahil wala naman ako maipoprovide, as online freelance karamihan ng work sa online alam naman natin bound by trust lang, tapos pagdating naman sa source of fund di naman tayo pwede manghingi sa mga exchange ng employment certificate, ITR lalong wala.

OP, marami ng nakapasa sa additional verification ng coins.ph kahit unemployed. I think marami na rin nag-share sa coins.ph thread. And about sa freelancing or crypto-related stuff, marami ng users ang gumagawa nyan kaya aware na si coins.ph dyan. Yan din ang reason sa tingin ko kung bakit kasali na sa list of supported documents iyong crypto-related documents pero not to the point naman na iproprovide mo lahat.

Check mo iyong link na binigay sa iyo ng support. Nandoon iyong sa crypto. Mas mahirap pa dati sa amin walang ganyan at limited lang ang options. Mas marami ka ma-proprovide. Pero nasa iyo pa rin kung itutuloy mo pa or iwan na ang coins.ph for good since puwede mo naman isend ang remaining funds mo sa iba at di naman naka-freeze account mo. Iyong limit na 0 di ka lang makakawithdraw pero puwede mo isend sa iba.

Then kapag ok na, your decision if you will still use coins.ph.



pano nalang yong mga kaibigan at kakilala na inaakit nating mag invest at aralin ang crypto na only Coins.ph pa lang ang alam gamitin dahil ito ang pinaka accessible dito sa bansa natin?

Maganda isabak ang mga newbies sa non-custodial wallets sa simula pa lang ng journey nila.



...para magising sa katotohanan ang management ng coins.ph pag napansin nilang malaki nababawas sa users nila.

Di naman lahat makakaranas ng nangyari kay OP. Saka iyong mga employed saglit lang makakapasa kapag naranasan nila iyong nangyari kay OP.

Mas marami din ang users na hindi pa nakakahit ng alarm so di pa sila naabala.



May mga friend din ako na na-freeze ang account, nirequired pa siya na kumuha ng clearance sa AMLA samantalang .5M lang naman laman ng coins wallet niya, dahil nga nag bu buy and sell siya ng btc at alts, pati BDO account niya na freeze din ng BDO, isa pa yang bdo na yan kapag galing sa coins ang pera tamang hinala din sila.

Ganyan talaga ang BDO, not friendly sa crypto nung simula. If you guys remembered, kung di ako nagkakamali nung 2017 hype, finireeze ng BDO iyong account ng isang user nila after receiving a decent amount from coins.ph. Na-settled naman pero matagal nga lang.

Ewan ko lang ngayon kung nagbago na views nila about crypto.
5033  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: February 24, 2020, 11:41:07 PM
Raptors annihilated the Pacers by a score of 127 to 82, we are used to seeing numbers like 127 scored on teams nowadays and even tho for people who have been watching NBA for 10+ years the number of points scored is still weird, getting scored 127 on is not a big thing anymore, however how the hell did pacers stopped at just 82 points, they are not really that bad neither, I mean they are not awesome but they are not this bad, one of the least points a team has scored this season as far as I can remember.

Even Raptors showed dominance in terms of defense, Pacers penetrated it and they able to find some open spots for an uncontested shot.

However, the bad night really struck them. Their shooting percentage is so horrible to the point that even some of their free layups were missed. The rim literally doesn't want to take their shot lol.

And the worst aside from that Pacers' horrible performance, one of their player, Jeremy Lamb suffered a season-ending injury. So unfortunate.

Sa mga nagloload gamit ang Btc sa coins.ph nila may poblema ba ang system?or tinanggal na talaga ang BTC option instead PHP nlng ang pwede ipang load?
Kasi ilang araw ko na sinusubukan pero ayaw na gumana,kailangan pa mag convert ako ng Btc to php para lang makapagload.

Puwede pa iyong direct to BTC wallet sa pagload.

Just tried it last night pero sa web version. Not sure sa app and wala rin ako lolodan sa ngayon kaya di ko matry. Na-try mo na ba ulit?

And for me, mas maganda na masanay ka na rin sa convert to PHP kapag sa load purposes.

5035  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have You Started Gambling Because You Want To Be Part Of A Gambling Campaign on: February 24, 2020, 10:48:19 PM
Have You Started Gambling Because You Want To Be Part Of A Gambling Campaign or you are already a gambler and wants to be part of a gambling campaign, in my case I come to play gambling because I want to become a part of a gambling campaign, so far this is my 6th gambling campaign and I still continue gambling because I want to continuously involved in gambling campaign.

How about you?

I can't see how literal gambling and gambling-related campaigns become correlated to that concern.

A gambler is a gambler and the majority of them started gambling without these campaign stuff. I've been involved in gambling for over a decade.

Since like there's a bit confusing to you on that part but if that's your reason why you gamble (together with the common and usual ones), and since campaigns trigger you to start doing gambling, it's fine anyway as that is your stand.

My question is: Do you spend the money you gain with the service you are working for?


Sometimes I do some gamble, and I always prefer to spend the money on the website that are paying me, I think it's fair and a way to say thanks  Grin

Yes at most. It's not because I owed those earnings from the service but I'm into Gambling for a long-time now so definitely I will try each and every site that I think good, trustworthy and not obvious trash.

And besides, since you advertise them, at least you know them not just by name but by the service itself. Are they trustworthy? Are they fair? Are they worth to put bucks?

It's not mandatory that if you advertise a certain company, you need to spend money on them as part of saying thanks. As long as the site meets people's criteria, it will be considered to used no matter what.
5037  Economy / Gambling / Re: Opening a new gambling website 2020' on: February 22, 2020, 11:17:48 PM
~snipped~

My feedback:

- The way you introduced the site is already enough reason why people should stay away from it. That's not the professional way of introducing a gambling site. Did you see a reputable gambling site owner today that shares their sentiments about their gambling experience in the past? Also, only those who have a plan of exiting someday do have a welcome note of "this is not a scam".

- Second, you question the legality and you don't honestly care for it. Did you really think people will just throw away their money on a site like that?

- Prove fairness of the lottery.

- Prove fairness of 70% 80% 90% additional winning for those who will win the respective draws.

- Prove you have decent funds

- And Gmail.com as your email domain?
5038  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who wins and What next step? on: February 22, 2020, 10:51:11 PM
But we have to look at that person X lost before that gives him a better chance of winning.
Just like a game of Dice, when Dice has not been coming for a while, chances are that it will come, all online games are made on this principle.
Flipcoin is a 50% 50% chance, but in that situation, that limit outweighs the X person's side.

No, it's not what happens and there is no "better chance" of winning. All their bets are following a random hash. Player X just hit those unfortunate bets. What if Player Y also loses, what do you think of the situation now?

In a game like that, while relying on "luck", gamblers must also know how to manage their bankroll properly. As much as possible, they should set a maximum profit and losses per session so that it won't destroy their focus. Gamblers losses too much in a single session not because of the losing bet results but on how they managed their bankroll as they become aggressive in chasing their loss.
5039  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: February 18, 2020, 10:51:27 PM
The fact that you insert LeBron and any other players in the discussion as the reason for that to happen, this makes the whole Kobe-changed logo not making sense, unnecessary, baseless and pointless.

It's not just because of the performance nor achievements or even Kobe is the most talented player in the NBA that the logo should be changed after him.

Kobe's die-hard fans should understand that changing the logo is not as easy as 1,2,3 and shouldn't be push nor make it as a petition fan-based. Why this brought up in the first place? To honor Kobe? Good point above, how about Jordan? Magic? Chamberlain? The other greats that contribute to the legacy of the NBA?

Kobe will surely not be happy about this. As for him, there are other greats he respected that should be placed there first before him. Maybe someday he will be considered but not this time.


It's gonna be hard to make everyone on what Kobe fans are petitioning since everyone has their own best player in the NBA.
I'm not pushing, just sharing what the fans likes to happen and it was has never came into my mind about the "kobe-logo" until I read articles on it.
yes there are greats, better than him, but he died in a tragic incident, maybe that's the reason why he was so different and people pity him.

anyway, too much for this discussion, it's just like believing in different God and discussions were made by different religion or believer, all we discuss here are only based on opinion and not one among us even know the criteria for a change logo in NBA if there's any.

I will not snipped some of the posts for reference.

Anyways, I'm not saying you are pushing it. I never mentioned it. I just point out the basis you have mentioned which is:

"Kobe is a legend, he is way better than any other active players in the NBA now, even against Lebron, I still find Kobe better and I think he is the only one who is comparably close to Jordan when it comes to talent in basketball."

Even no one knows here the criteria of how the logo should be changed, that reason alone isn't making sense and shouldn't be a basis.

But as I also pointed out, "maybe someday Kobe will be considered". Kobe fans or not, no one will oppose that move.

anyway, too much for this discussion, it's just like believing in different God and discussions were made by different religion or believer, all we discuss here are only based on opinion and not one among us even know the criteria for a change logo in NBA if there's any.

Don't take this seriously mate as we are just having a healthy discussion here just like the others who also posted their own sentiments about the logo change. It's ok no worries. Smiley

It's not appropriate to compare our healthy discussions here to the toxic religious discussions for an obvious reason. Our topic here is way more constructive compare to them lol.
