congrats on the win Iv4n, and well played Betwrong!

i'm a little disappointed with the 18-player turnout. OTOH it's great value considering the money/prizes added to the championship prize pool. i know CoinEraser and big_daddy said they couldn't make it today and would probably be there tomorrow.

it's still a wide open series. lots of value still there for the taking......

Anyway, the income of the miner will primarily depend on the price of bitcoin. 

In almost a year, Bitcoin rose by 300% and in July 2017 amounted to about $ 2,500.  In addition, And we all observed that before the end of 2017, Bitcoin almost skyrocketed to $ 20,000

Thus, halving 2020 can also show very good results and miners will not suffer.

It's only news and not an official one. Well it could happen as I have seen some leagues going on 70-80 mins recently (can't recall now) but given the situation they are in I think they could do so since they want to conclude the season quickly as possible but I think that is the last thing that would want. 90 minutes a game is perfect .

If it were me I would rather opt for substitutions to be increased over decrease in game time.

The virulent disease has pretentious mutually China and the United States. China was clever to be in charge of it, but after loads of months of extra special efforts. It caused gigantic fiscal destruction near was well.

I hope that EU and USA wont allow it. We need freedom outside the china

You do not really see the difference that adding couldn't really hurt anything at all. The worst case scenario not many people will play and you will probably just see it continue without getting too much attention from the people and that's about it. However if you really have something special and many people start to flock to it, you will see it get lively and bunch of wagers and all that.

So, what is the downside to adding this? How could it hurt to add it? I do not see any changes at all and there is only positives to it. If you do marketing to promote the esports part more, that could cost you some money and if you do not get anything in return that could be the downside, but as long as you do not really spend any money on it, there is nothing bad neither.

That's what I will do once I visit a site to use the free crypto to test their site. If no faucet or even free crypto fund like other sites do for people to try their site just like bits.(do), where they give a little bit of satoshi to test their site and some find errors or bugs that helped them. Not promoting bits.(do).

It is quite interesting to see these type of news. This kid is only 16 years old, half of my age, and he is seen as such a big talent or a huge potential that teams are willing to play millions even before that kid could play professionally and show what type of player he will be.

These type of situations work two ways, either you pay that much money for someone so young but you get yourself a dedicated very talented hard working young player and keep him there for a decade and/or sell him for a lot higher, or the second possibility is, since the kid is talented it looks like he is a lot better compared to other 16 year olds

however when you put them versus professional level players he starts to realize he is not that good and starts to play badly and ruins his future.

Why did you guys want to shorten the match? What's the purpose? The article was only about a hypothetical thing, about what it looks like if the games were only run for 75 mins.

I think EPL can resume ASAP if they play the game without supporters, even better if they broadcast it for free to the world as a charity.

Wish you had the copper badge though, to improve your trust a bit as a newbie.

I like the part where you plan to make everyone a winner. I guess that doesn't necessarily mean making everyone, most or many more players to be consistently profitable. I think it is a challenge worth solving in betting industry.

You may try to register then say hello on chat and if admin is around then you'll be tipped 10k satoshi.

We are not sure about this, but I am not wishing for China to become world power, and that's because I don't really like how their government functions, they don't have freedom in their own country and their government controls them lol, such a government doesn't deserve to be the world power.

I know a lot of people are going to say this because they, China, has been making a lot of sales; health products such as masks, ventilators, and tests. Despite that a lot of things these days are being produced in China, they still have a long way to go. That they produce everything doesn't mean that other countries can't produce theirs too, it's just because there are lots of lower-wage workers in China.

i've been amazed at bitcoin's resilience during these turbulent times. now we know that growing institutional interest is one of the explanations for its strong performance recently.

I didn't mean like esports was something very small that suddenly became bigger. I know that esports was big but at the same time the only reason why it was big was the viewers not the gamblers. Definitely esports had some gambling as well but comparing it to big guns like basketball, football, american football and even some other stuff would be naive, esports was nowhere near that level at all.

Obviously right now they are the biggest because the other ones are cancelled or postponed, which means there is no basketball, there is no football, there is no nfl and the only thing left is esports which makes it evidently bigger than everything and biggest of right now. This doesn't mean esports was nothing and now something, it just means that it was probably in top 10 but became the top one after all of this.

Where did you hear that there has been a decline in the corna virus spread. I have not seen any news network saying that the spreading has gone down significantly globally. I am only hearing that it is increasing everyday.

Untill they actually come out with a vaccine rather than claiming one I do not foresee any matches to happens in the near future. No one want to get infected especially the players.

It would be interesting to see what kind of statistics the bookies would be able to provide since lockdown started. I agree esports has always been big, but until regular sports disappeared I did not know even the team names or the odds. Now at least I seem to recognize them thanks to their names always appearing on the markets:)

Looks like we have now 1 team that is sure to participate. 4 more teams then we can set up a tournament.

In the meantime, since you are the one who sends me a PM first on the day this thread was created, can we arrange our friendly battle? Something around $15 bet.

Deal? If yes, let's talk at Telegram.

May I know your ML id/username and Telegram?

You are right as E-Sports was not popular as this was available on very limited sites and punters was also not enough but this lock down bring very good popularity for this as now most of peoples lock down and have no activity so they are studying and doing stuff on this and many sites bringing odds as few weeks back very sites able to give odds for this all.

Good stuff, should mean a return to first team training is imminent for them. I already saw that Wolves are going back on Monday 11th.

Exactly, player statistics is enough basis for bettors to see on what team they will bet

Esports is getting more attention just thanks to pandemic lockdown. I know that it was already big, the first ones were small time lan based games and right now we are talking about finals at stadiums and all that, so we know even before the lockdown it was getting big

If anyone is able to relocate to a third world country to set up their equipment then you cannot call them a small time miner  . If you are mining with a few equipment you are not even expecting much profit in any country as electricity is not free even in third world countries, you are just happy running the full node.

With a single Antminer S9 you cannot make profit in US or Europe but with three Antminer S9 you can still make around a dollar a day .
