Well that's sad for many fans especially those who got use to alchol during the matches. There might be alchol in hotels with some limitations but still not inside the stadium to prevent some things from happening and sort of images. Even female fans that use to dress very inappropriately will be banned from doing that too i believe. But for some stays not a bad thing and for Muslim families it's a good thing. But what matters is this great event to pass well and everyone enjoys it. Real fans will enjoy football specifically no matter what

The issue of dressing isn't supposed to be an issue if the ball was to be watched by certain group of people,ers say the Muslim, but this is a game been watched by almost all football lovers and the location Qatar is a big set back as most people expected to be in attendance are youths with different dress behaviours.
Since this match isn't eternal, I'm sure there are people who really wouldn't mind any of the requirements just to make sure to be live at the stadium to watch the match.
The aspect of alcohol should be reconsidered and if I have a way to suggest, I will suggest alchols should be allowed but in covered packs.

I think proper acquaintancy in sport betting will give to you greater chances of winning as there are different games and opportunities present in sport betting and it comprises of other sports not justk making stakes in just a single game.

But I think everyone is making sense over here base on their choices and also the results they might have gottenso far from either of the three options you gave.
For instance, I might be very good at sport betting and making a fortune out of it, but meanwhile some other person is serious regretting why he or she knew about sport betting.

N/B stick to what works for you and don't be easily influenced as no one post their failures
5183  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Faucet and Bonus Farming on: November 01, 2022, 12:17:53 PM
I have seen more than 2 casinos locking user accounts for this action, and is it really the users fault?

If the users claims tons of faucets or bonus is because the casino engine allows it, and if the casino is losing money with this action they should fix their code to avoid this problem and not steal users money.

The casinos sets the rules of the game, and if a user is smarter enough to find a way to make profit with those rules then they shouldn't block users withdrawals.

So, what do you think about this?

I think we users don't really twkethe time to read through the terms and conditions of a casino before usage.
Some casinos always states it very clear, it's right to restrict and block any account with any threat suspicion or that defiles their rules and that's why most of abnormalities of th casinos aren't treated seriously

But with regards to this very form you expressed which you indirectly pointed at the casinos, then, the casinos are to take full responsibility of their system and make amendments rather than shutting Dow a customers account.
5184  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto Casinos vs money laundering. on: November 01, 2022, 11:38:47 AM


So, what do you say, does crypto casinos really care about money laundering?

Your question if I'm not wrong is referring just to crypto casinos and not fiat casinos included, and I think cryptocurrency is decentralized and transactions can't be tracked, I believe crypto casinos only have the options of payments done through cryptos which implies that the transactions will be done through a wallet to the casino, hence the casinos wouldn't have the need to interrogate the deposit since it's also a win win strategy as well for them

I think Interrogation will be more possible and easier for fiat casinos since this transactions can easily be tracked and investigate.
5185  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are five things you will do if you win huge amount of money?? on: October 31, 2022, 12:32:18 PM
Hitting it big all depends on how much money one wins.
If I get to hit over $10,000 to $20,000, then that will go a long way to adjusting some aspect of my life.
Stating this gs expected to do with the money is another great task as well as will only plan why God disposes
But there are some things I would love to do which is simply investing in Bitcoin and investing in landed properties, these are investments I've found worthy to put huge money into them.
Starting a business isn't an easy one and so maintaining the business is another great task too, as inflation and banks constantly increasing taxes as directed by government is a huge setback to businesses in my country as locality.
5186  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: High roller looking for KYC-FREE casino on: October 31, 2022, 08:41:40 AM
I want to find a new casino without the need to expose myself to the KYC process. I don't want this thread to discuss the pro's and con's of KYC.
I want to remain a private person and gamble.
My play has made me the number 1 player at Blackjack.fun, wagering over 2000BTC
Things that are important:
KYC free obviously
good customer service
instant withdrawals
a community would be a plus
a decent range of games that are bug free


Thanks for taking your time to help me with the wide range of choices.
With this your specifications, I really don't think it will be easy if possible to get a legit casino for all of that.
Most credible casinos I've used and online seek for KYC even at registration and some that might not as for KYC for freshers and a certain deposit and withdrawal, as they will in time or when you exceed your limit as for a KYC, and I think there is no need or essence of shying away from KYC if you are free a d have no intentions for malicious activities through the site, except there is something you aren't telling us.
5187  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is it really possible to quit on these reasons on: October 31, 2022, 03:40:01 AM
You gave clear reasons to stop gambling, as all the reasons you gave were really tangible and excusable enough to stopping gambling, But my emphasis are basically on when you make a huge winning, which is supposed to be a greenlight to you stopping gambling.
Most times it is best you take a break or sometime off, after you make a huge win, especially if you're a frequent gambler( a full time gambler) to first plan the utilization of your winnings.
I always advice people to take some time to do the things they have planned to do when they have the money whenever they have a major winning.

And secondly, a major loss is another huge greenlight to take a break from gambling even without been told.
Most times it is best we take a break to figure what the problem is whenever there is a major lose, because most time when we persistently continue playing after a major lose, we unintentionally involve in revenge betting and gambling which inturns leads to regrets and most times severe loss.
5188  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🎵 What kind of music do you listen when you gamble? 🎶🎧 on: October 31, 2022, 03:24:08 AM
My kind of music depends on the kind of game and it's result.
When in a winning state, possibly on my first five plays, then I losten to songs from pop smoke.
That dude, get my soul really high when staying positive.
In situations when I'm struggling to get a winning balance, I listen to some gospel music from basically choirs bands( just play any choir band songs) and I'm good.

There are days I make massive loses, I just lay down low, with a big jar of beer and some cool blues saves the moment.
5189  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Countries that are Legal and Illegal in gambling on: October 30, 2022, 02:40:24 PM
Gambling is truly something that could help a country's government if done properly and we'll regulated.
It is also no doubt that, gambling despite it's ability to help ones government, it also has it's detriments which includes addictiveness, emotional and mental destability, are few to mention that most times might lead to criminality just to be able to cover up the loses.
Most countries like Nigeria are all good promoters of gambling with some restrictions, especially that of age, as no one below the age of 18 is legally permitted to gamble.

It is also true that some other countries despite the prohibition of gambling, still indulge in it mostly online.
5190  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Distortion Pattern on: October 30, 2022, 07:20:57 AM
All your distortion patterns are truly correct.
I've experienced them all and that's one major reason I concur with you.
I also experienced this distortion firstly in trading and it wasn't an easy one tho but we survived.
Most of this distortion also happens when one gambles emotionally and doesn't know their limits.
No one starts a thing, especially with money and expect to make a loss, which then applies to the pattern I, where one makes and starts with profit, then hopes gets high and the quest to make more comes in which might drive he/she to patter II, where there's continues loss and if suddenly hits pattern III, they think they know all in playing and still hope to get revived to pattern I, which at the most ends, leads to total loss of capital and winnings.

Gambling is addictive and one should gamble responsibly, as no one will be held responsible for your mental health.
5191  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling house responisbilty to protect people data on: October 30, 2022, 06:07:12 AM
Cases of casinos publishing names of winners are mostly common with that of crypto casinos and not really common with those that use fiat.
But I think this things are clearly stated in the terms and conditions (T&C) of this gambling houses, maybe to help promote their payout capacity, and most times this crypto casinos are basically and mostly onlines and I really don't think is of more harm to winners.
On the other hand, I really don't see reasons why names of winners should be published without maybe consulting the winner through maybe a private email or so.
5192  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much was your last big win? on: October 30, 2022, 05:55:48 AM
My last winning was only $62 from sportsbet. I placed a bet on cricket and won 62$ for just $15.  But even though $62 is a low reward, I'm happy with it.  Because I won that bet.  So that's a big bonus for me, because I bet it just adds to my fun.  But when I win those bets, that winning really gives me a lot of joy.
Every win is a big one mate. What truly matters is that you won and didn't lose. Most times we play with intentions to make very big and greedy winnings from a small amount, there by exposing our games to greater risk and possible loss.
My greatest win was about $75 and I barely have to stress this figures as most times I bet  just for fun and when the winnings come, it all ends with the joy and if I lose I don't feel too affected, tho I strive not to make loses.
5193  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A lottery's defense to not paying a huge winning. on: October 30, 2022, 05:29:58 AM
From the story, I think the company isn't wanting to pay the winner because he won some huge amount in the past year (2019) and now another heavy winning from same betting outlet, which to an extent called for an alarm to them..
I guess that lottery company, has forgotten in a hurry that it is of a very bad reputation for the company to be facing a non payment charges in the court against them, and I guess they might lose lot of customers if care isn't take this time.
They talked about irregularities, but never mentioned in details what it entailed, as I don't really see the possibilities of irregularities in playing a game of uncertainty and prediction.
The game was played with big amount ($690), so the winning shouldn't be shocking to them.
If there were irregularities, why them will they offer to pay $23,000 and $29,000 to tye winner when reported to the police and the gambling board respectively?.

The case is already in the court, and I hope the player wins as the company could easily just pay the judge and the case to their favour.
5194  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Question to players: what does really drive you crazy in an online casino? on: October 27, 2022, 12:09:00 PM
One major frustrating thing about casinos, is the fact that most of them lure you to their sites with the claims of no KYC but later start demanding for KYC maybe on a huge withdrawal which is very annoying. I prefer to do my KYC before depositing or carrying out any task on the platform so as to be sure and certain of what I'm doing rather than being lured.

Withdrawal delay is another annoying thing about casinos and I have also noticed that, this issues don't really affect depositing on the platform but mostly on withdrawals especially on huge withdrawals.

Network issue is another issues with online casino esoey in my country because most of this online casinos require heavy networks and most times one might miss the right time to play a game and end up missing that opportunity.
5195  Economy / Gambling / Re: What is the best thing to do if this happens on: October 27, 2022, 11:59:38 AM
Assuming you gamble on a mid to high-rated gambling website and you won big but they refuse to pay up, what and what are the legal way to make sure that the platform pays up your money?

I've read of cases of casinos refusing to pay up winnings to winners  and there is a similar topic of a winner who was deprived of his winnings, with the claims that the data record of his winnings was wiped off their system,
A game that was played with about $690 with a winning of aout $169,000. This was so disheartening to me but the man was fortunate enough as be reported to a police station and the gambling board and he was offered about $23,000 and $29,000 respectively but he turned them down and demanded for a full payment as he further took the case to a court ad I hope he wins.

This is the link to the topic And below is the link to the original story

So I think if one encounters such cases and there is a prove to the winning then I think firstly, one should report to the nearest police station before any other actions
5196  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Zero KYC tolerance gambling platforms on: October 26, 2022, 11:22:22 PM
Is KYC verification very important to crypto gambling websites or this has something to do with their regulations rule? Where can one gamble with zero verification requirements?

It is almost impossible to get any casino(online) with zero tolerance to KYC,
Most times the details provided during the KYC are kept private without the interference of a third party. And most of this details are used to prevent money laundering or any financial theft through their platform.
But I see no reason , why someone with a clean heart and intentions be scared a d worried over KYC?
5197  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Split the prize or Reroll? on: October 26, 2022, 10:33:24 PM
I really don't see any reason to roll the dice anymore rather than walk away with half of the price.
Remember it's a give away, and 0.05btc is a nice take home and there is no way I personally will continue rolling when no winner is assured.
One weakness people have in gambling is not knowing ones limit and not knowing when to stop becauee of greed which in most cases ends up In total silent regrets.
So I personally will split and walm away with half of it.
5198  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I find way to win on dice on: October 25, 2022, 10:43:28 AM
Do only 50% bet 20$ every time if it fails do 60$ it fails do 150$ if it fails do 350$ if it fails do 900$ if it fails do 2300$

There is no way you will fail 7 times and if you do just increase the bet and you will get it back eventually even if you wait 12 times.

what you think on my method?

This principle and logic is really absurd. How do you expect me to keep increasing my stake amount after losing consecutively for over 7 times?
NEVER
This very principle is known as the martingale strategy which to me is very outdated.
Firstly I gamble not just for fun but to have profit in my pocket at the end of the day, no matter how little the profit might be and there Is no way you'll expect me to keep increasing my stake amount after each lose rather than going back home to ponder on the losses for the day and from where will I get all those money to keep increasing my stake amount ?
5199  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you win big in casino, would it be publicized? on: October 25, 2022, 10:12:55 AM
I have not paid attention much to people winning on gambling sites. I do not mean people that just win, but people that win big like over $10000 or more. All I have known is that people that won so big are publicized and people know them from there.

That is dangerous, it means no privacy and people that are known to the public can be the victim of robbers and there can be physical attacks from robbers in order to steal from the winner. That is not all, even if there is no physical threat, people like me and some other people on this forum can be afraid, feeling unsafe of attacks.

I do not expect gambling sites to be publicising this kind of news. Will gambling site ask for the permission of the winner for the winning to go public? Or the winner can just be anonymous in a way his name will not be mentioned?

Privacy is key in gambling winnings and it can't be over emphasized, but I really don't think neither have I seen a winner with his or her full name and winning amount been published or publicized but I've seen where just tye winnings and most times with the users ID publicized which I don't think would reveal the true identity of the winner.

Whatever the case may be , publicizing a winner isn't a good idea and if truly it must be done to promote the company's payment ability, then it should be with tye permission of the winner as well.
