Quite happy here as a long time fan of Dallas Mavericks that Dirk Nowitzki makes again another record for his career. It's a great achievement that he can show to his successors. Hope that he played for the next couple of season before retiring as I can't see Dallas Mavericks without Nowitzki on the floor.

Next year to achieve this goal will Lebron James who currently is at 28,316 points.

Chances are really high for about 95% that Lebron James will joined the 30,000 points party next season. They still have lots of remaining games before the playoffs and surely he can minimized the points required next year to achived that 30,000. For an average of 20+ points that needed next season, he can lowered it to 15+ points average if he will able to play at all games. But even if not, LBJ is not the type of player that have a low average points so definitely missed games can be covered.


if Lebron James will not suffer injury, he has a 99% chance to reach the 30,000 points next season.
He now has 28,316 points.
between regular seasons and playoffs this season will play approximately another 35-40 games and then at the end of the season he will reach about 29,000 points.
Next year will have about 100 games to reach 30,000 points.

I think he will come in first place currently occupied by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar with 38,387 perhaps in 2022!
That's possible because obviously he is better than Dirk, it's unlikely that Lebron will be enjoyed because he is very strong and he matured now as a player. He knows when he needs to score and since it's still in regular season and they are secured already to get into the playoffs, he would rather be a facilitator and work the stats on his assist than score most of the time.

It seems there are bad news all around with doom and gloom. Trade figures going down, jobs cuts, security situation not going well, and bad loans.

Is the economy situation in your country that dismal? Or this is just some fear mongering?



Our economy situation so far in my country now I can say it fine and good, because our officials in the government is working so hard to resolve the problems in our economy. And others like in job too was also giving a solutions, therefore the situation of my country now is above average.
Well, that is good, if your officials are honest most probably your country will progress. Bitcoin is good especially for countries with bad economy as their fiat has lesser value and by converting it in bitcoin as investment, it will help you get away with that problem and in fact it will help you gain more. The way of living should be cheap in poor country but since you invested in bitcoin, you will take advantage on the situation.

Investing means it is done on long term basis.In most cases, once you invest,you would to wait till the period ends to get back your money.Trading is totally under our control.Either you can do trading in short term basis or long term basis.You can easily change your decision about your money whenever you want.
Correct, it's good to invest if you have a big amount of capital that will give you a good ROI in a span of time. Trading is only for people who wants to earn an active income on a regular basis. There are day traders and they are making money trading in crypto world, and that is the path that I want to follow.
5164  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much can u lose with gambling? on: March 08, 2017, 05:14:30 AM
I've lost 0.1 bitcoin that time I dice gamble with bot and I fell asleep but bot it's runs approximately 7-9 hours when I woke up and saw a 0.1 bitcoin new in the deposit is lost, it's also my worst gambling
That's why you never sleep when you are betting, you are using a bot because you believe it will increase your chances but any bankroll management method would not work if you will not pay attention to what you are doing. Sometimes you make mistakes with the bot on configuring it that's why you lose, anyway it's very simple to analyze because in every roll the house always has the advantage so do not bet a big amount like you lose.
5165  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can gambling help you with your life? on: March 08, 2017, 03:23:47 AM
I'm thinking on what aspect of my life did gambling helped me out. Maybe when I'm in times of in need for money and I luckily won some good amount with it. Maybe I can consider that gambling helped me that way and also that can be applicable to all of you folks out there. But that's just for a while and most of the time gambling will ruin my day only if I had a losing streak.
That's why in general gambling will not help us when our problem is money, it will only give us another problem if we think that way. For me, It's better to treat it as an entertainment as that is the only possible way that gambling can help us. Anyway this life is not all about money so when we want to have fun, gambling is always a better option to do.
5166  Other / Archival / Re: Do you think that you're addicted to gambling? on: March 07, 2017, 08:00:10 AM
No i am not addicted to Gambling. Whenever i get free time, i play gambling. But not everyday.
You are quite new bro here and I think since you have started gambling now you might get addicted in no time !

You can read the threads here which shows how dangerous is gambling and its addiction. So basically if you are thinking of starting gambling or just started please stop right now, unless you are rich and have the luxury of affording such expenses for the sake of fun.
Our experience in gambling does not reflect with the status of our account here, even if such person is still a newbie, it's possible that he has bigger experience than most high ranks here. Somehow, I think if he can only play in his free time, there still a chance that he can change his attitude in gambling and that is the moment where addiction can enter.

I mean, everyone must play with discipline as that is the only way to last and being in control of our destiny in gambling.

I would said that bitcoin is a great investment now because the price is keep on rising and will be keep on rising and now people start to know bitcoin and compared it with gold, so its mean people started to think bitcoin as a serious and valuable investment, so not only bitcoin is great investment for now but it is also a great investment  for the future
Now only now but also in the future to come, if you are a bitcoin enthusiast, you would already noticed that before the price skyrocketed and if you were able to buy at that moment you would be getting great profit now as the price is increasing and this will continue for sure.
Bitcoin has a very good future and it will be the most dominant payment system that we will ever had, it will overtake the popular ones because
there is freedom in using bitcoin and it helps us with the cheap transaction fees.
5168  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Investing in casinos on: March 07, 2017, 01:53:47 AM
It's their problem if they are going to invest immediately and they aren't going to do certain proper preparations. Remember that investing will always be a risky thing and they need to do some research for themselves. Because we always know that investing is such a hard thing without background especially in bankroll casino'.s
When we do plan on investing on gambling site bankrolls we should always seek for the most reputable gambling sites that do accept investors. Yes,there is always a risk when we are talking about investment and we cant remove that thing.
Yes that's the best thing for us and newcomers in investing to casino's to do. But don't forget that there are newly operating casino's. And yet, they are being trusted already by so many investors. It's up to us if you will rely on those sites. Just always do the research and get some help from other investors here who are experts already.
That's because they have a very good system and a marketing plan, people trusted them because investors believe they can easily get their ROI.
Normally those who are successful are casinos who runs their ICO and they have a different system on the existing one.
Edgeless casinos are one that has a big potential to grow now as people are looking for something that hey can have a good winning chance.
5169  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What would you do with your winnings? on: March 06, 2017, 12:36:01 PM
If ever I won something big, the first time I will do is withdraw it.  Keep the 20% for savings, 10% a bankroll , 30% to investment and the remaining for daily needs.  I think I will continue to gamble with the allocated percentage and if ever I lose it all, I will stop playing gambling games.
Such a good plan, I think you are doing an awesome job at least when time comes you will win you do not need to worry how to manage your funds. Actually that would help, not only because we won the money from gambling we just have to spend it with unnecessary things. Investing should be the main priority and I just hope always if I have a chance to win, it should be something that will satisfy me so I can start for a bigger journey.

As I said in other parts of the forum,you need to split everything in other activities, not stick to once.

Agreed on this things, at least there is a reservation in fun of games. Where the gambler will not get easily bored in the games, if you want to shift into something you go to other place of games. Though losses is most often happened than winning, well its in the blood og being a gambler.
What influence us is our family but when I was young I do not play online gambling because normally we just play cards for fun but normally I'm the overall winner. However, my destiny has change in online gambling as I'm betting more fun betting online but in terms of profitability, I'm not standing good.
5171  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The Worlds Luckiest Countries on: March 06, 2017, 07:53:00 AM
It was kind of funny reading this from a poker site regarding the worlds luckiest countries.
They have this kind of methology on how did they arrived on the conclusion.
If you will notice, Top 5 are the those 1st world country and the rest specially
the bottom 5 3rd world.

Here's the top 5 (out of 22). Just look at were your country at and you will
be the judge  Smiley

1. UK
2 USA
3. Italy
4. France
5. Japan.

Here's the link:https://www.888poker.com/infographic/luckiest-countries/
Enjoy  Grin

it is not merely a high degree of good fortune, but also because of the number of online gamblers in these countries is the highest in the world, so there winning rate higher than other countries. However, it is sensible to five of these countries are at the top in the data, because these countries were superior in terms of any of the other countries.
That's true, my country either is not there but I cannot say poker players in our country are not lucky, maybe those countries are just more advance to satisfy their gambling needs, unlike in our country where poker are usually played in physical casinos. I'm not a fan of poker therefore I have only limited information to share representing our country. Grin
5172  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can you beat the house edge on: March 05, 2017, 01:08:16 PM
No you can't beat it because it always has a higher percentage hence the advantage
Even if they have the advantage, you can beat them but only in a short term period, no one beat the house in the long run as gambling sites are destine to be profitable and we are not. With that, we must be doing what is right to minimize the risk, there is no easy money in gambling and we should understand that but our gambling activity could benefit us if we are only doing it as a source of entertainment in life.
5173  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you use analysis when play gambling? on: March 05, 2017, 12:28:08 PM
Just want know how much the gamblers who use analysis when play gambling and what kinds of gambling game? And do you think it is needed or not making analysis on gambling game or it is depend on lucky. Thanks for share your opinions and experience.

Applying analysis to a dice game is crazy in my opinion. But when playing poker it certainly works to an extent. I never do sports betting so I can't say anything in that regard. Although even in poker you can go all in having street flush on hand and still lose to a street flush with higher card, so dependence on luck is huge anyway.
The only purpose to analyze in dice game is on how to limit your loses or quit while you are wining, that's openly known to everyone that no method that will work in dice in the long run, hence any analyzes to win not gonna last forever because it is only the house who will gonna last longer making money.

On the other hand, games that requires analysis such as poker and sports betting are something that we should put our interest in if we want to be successful with out aim to make money in gambling. It's not easy in the beginning but at least when you stays longer, you will learn something, and that something might lead you to improvement of your technique to deliver you a constant win.
5174  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Excuses on: March 05, 2017, 11:53:24 AM
I have never gambled with money that wasn't mine but I've had a friend gamble with mine but he was lucky to have won and paid back. It was then he told me what he did with the money and I was furious. He just doesn't take things seriously and so I knew he could do that.
That's a problem in process if you ever gamble with others money or borrowed money, not all the time you are lucky and you cannot guarantee the outcome of your bets even if you are confident enough. It's still nice to follow the basic principle in gambling which to use what you can afford to lose, at least when you lose it will not affect yourself so much and that will not bring big problem.

Borrowing money to gamble is just a sign of greediness and being irresponsible which will surely not gonna lead to a good result.
5175  Economy / Economics / Re: Spending Bitcoins on: March 05, 2017, 11:24:35 AM
As of now, I don't do spending habits with my bitcoin because i am too busy in earning bitcoins and those earnings are just keep in my wallet for long term reasons. I only spend my bitcoin when i need to buy or pay something like my monthly bills which is very convenient for me because i don't need to go to the physical stores or places just to pay.
Good plan to hold bitcoins, instead of spending, you would rather save it. I wish I have that kind of discipline because most of earnings here just goes to gambling and sometimes even my salary in real life job, that's sick, right? Anyway, I hope one day I'll be more matured about investment, though I have put some but I still feel that I lack something very vital for success.
fluctuations in the price of bitcoin is quite significant at this time, so I guess is normal if we prefer to save rather than spend bitcoin. but sometimes I still have to use bitcoin I have for daily needs.
If you earn enough bitcoin that you have enough, and the preservation and for daily needs, it is very good. But, I would be a pity to waste bitcoin for me, knowing that I can get much more over time.
Exactly, we must have the discipline to save it, it's not fiat that depreciated its value overtime, it makes the opposite thing as overtime it become more valuable. It's alright to spend because we really need to but always remember to be on budget all the time, so as not to waste this once in a lifetime opportunity we have now. Bitcoin is the greatest invention so far and this will be the most dominant online currency in the future.
5176  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your gambling strategy on: March 05, 2017, 11:11:34 AM
What do you think is better - gambling on smallest bets on games with jackpots or just gambling high rolls? Playing marginal hi lo - odd 2 with 100% or odd 3 with 100%? Slots or cards? Sport bets? Talk about your gambling strategies, wining or losing..

Gambling strategy is only in the motivation of the gamblers, to think that they are good gambler but honestly, that is totally crazy things. How can you use strategy if gambling is just game of relax when you like to enjoy and have some fun only.
Yeah, you see many people see gambling as a way of making money and they take so seriously and they start stressing out and it becomes and addiction and they do whatever they can to win, gambling as you said should be about having fun and relaxing not make a regular thing like many people does.
If that's how you look at gambling then there will be no risk for you of losing more than you can afford to lose. For us, it's better to treat this as entertainment than making ways to earn money in gambling, we know how hard it is based on our experience and even basing on how some gamblers get addicted fro trying to find a winning formula.
5177  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Could bitcoin prevent crime? on: March 05, 2017, 10:47:54 AM
bitcoin prevent crime? maybe ..
but in reality bitcoin instead being misused as a means of black market
It's not maybe, it's no. You don't even doubt about it. How can bitcoin prevent crime when it's just a payment system or currency as we call it?
The final say will always on the owner of bitcoin and if they decide to use it in illegal activities, that's always possible as the system is decentralized and no one will check prior to the actual transaction if it's for legitimate transaction or not.

In short, it's systematic and automatic, and bitcoin has no brain to control transactions.
5178  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your gambling strategy on: March 04, 2017, 06:47:57 AM
I just set a profit goal and on the winning side i just triple double the bet to be able to achieve my profit goal at the end of the day. But a matter of luck and destiny actually about the gambling industry. Profit goal means playing safe of the game to be able not to lost fast your capital fund to not winning in a row. Winning is always on play safe.
The definition of playing safe for me is more on the losing side, if you can manage to limit your loses in gambling up to the amount you can afford to lose then that is safe for me. Winning does not happen all the time and even most of the time, thus we have to push a little bit to win more, anyway if you lose at least you do not lose your entire funds due to that limit.
5179  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is 1000 btc Possible on: March 04, 2017, 06:25:29 AM
It is really impossible to had 1000 bitcoin if you seposit all your money from your bank and you will start trading gambling invesments to gain more than that double your bank roll is easy when you know to analyze things
Gambling is not a good idea to put some money because it is very risky because you can't predict if the system will give you a win or lose, Investments are risky too because if you don't do research and you just register then invest then there is a high risk of losing your money because you didn't know if it is a legit investment or just HYIP or Ponzi Scheme.

In my opinion, Trading is enough to earn 1000 bitcoin if you know how to play the market and you already know the basic fundamentals to assure getting good results from your performance.
Trading is the only way but it need a good investment first to rise to the 1000 bitcoin but I think if you just in the willing to earn more and more invest in it without research and experience you will lose your money and I think all other ways of earning are just scam instead of mining but mining require different system for that it cannot be done by ordinary systems.
Not the only way for sure but it's the best way so far. Trading can give us a great profit if we will only do it with the right timing and to be able to do that, we must have a deep knowledge on what we are trading. It's not easy as it seems like "Buy low and Sell high" thing, that requires deep patience at all and when the right time will come, you need to initiate your plan.
5180  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: how strong is bitcoin really? on: March 04, 2017, 05:40:59 AM

nothing is perfect in this world, but if it happens, it will take a very long time, when they tried to hack her, the bitcoin users also fix all the weaknesses that exist within bitcoin, all of this has always kept a continuous
No one has ever successfully hacked bitcoin ,but hackers could steal your coins if you are careless with your seed and password but you really cannot hack the blockchain or the bitcoin and there are no known weakness other than the delays we encounter while we transact. Grin

true, only the delays and some websites that uses bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies were prone for that scam not literally the bitcoin itself but those who uses bitcoin for their sites like gambling and investing site.
Usually the scams does not happen a lot in gambling sites, why would they do it when there are bigger market here to make money on a regular basis. They have a game to offer and people love to play and enjoy their game, gamblers spend money and they make great profits.
Actually it's coming from Ponzis, HYIP, or altcoins ICO for some shitcoins, that's some you should be aware of, but in overall, bitcoin is really strong.
See the value and convince yourself.
