Iceland managed to beat Israel 4-1.Although Israel managed to take the lead by scoring the first goal, they could not hold on to the match. Iceland, which closed the first half 2-1 ahead, came closer to victory in the second half with Israel down to 10 men. Despite being down to 10 men, Israel won a penalty when the match was 2-1, but Eran Zahavi could not take advantage of the penalty. If he had scored this penalty, maybe we would be talking about different things. In the last 10 minutes, Gudmundsson scored 2 goals 3 minutes apart and won 4-1 in total.

I think that both teams are of equal level and the game could have gone either way.The fact that the most veteran player of Israel,Zahavi could not score the penalty while he always hit the penalties for Israel clearly impacted the game in favor of Iceland psychologically speaking as Israel belief that they could get anything out of this game came to new lows after that.Iceland was really believing and their belief was finalized in the last minutes of the game,veteran player from this side too Gudmundsson managed to bring back smiles to the fans of Iceland.Still both teams are of very much low quality to be playing in an European competition.

Any info about some good cpu coin?

I am mining a CPU coin but I am mining it with my GPU-s small rig and I am referring to Raptoreum as RTM,it is not a good coin right now but it had the good days in November 2021 when it hit 0.084 dollars per coin,right now is 0.0014 dollars per coin and with just 2 3000 series RTX cards I can make near 300 coins a day.

If you mine with a CPU,I will tell you the profitability from the one I used at my old job which was 12-25 coins daily from the core i5 8500 as processor but there are Ryzen-s out there,processors who can give you much more coins daily if you happen to have one of those.There are also other well known CPU coins like Monero however if you are in for the long run,personally I think the more of such cheap coins you can make with your CPU the better will be in the future,so I am not referring to now,as now everything is in red,I am referring to the future where if the prices go up we can be very happy about it.

I’m talking about the potential problem that you might encounter in the casino. Personally,  My worst nightmare that I don’t want to happened to me is when I hit huge jackpot while the casino investigate my account ask documents that will support my financial capability on gambling.

I’m only reading this issue on scam accusation but this is painful if happened to me like hitting max multiplier on slot games that result to 50K profit. Can’t imagine finally hitting my dream multiplier then casino seize my profit. This is just an abstract discussion so we are not really assuming that casino will do this especially the reputable casino.

Well in the reputable casinos where I have played I have always had the luck of hitting near the max win which of course was not 50K but the casino did not ask anything,I hit an x11339 at Stake casino from Return of the Green Knight Slot and that was with minimum bet to be 1339 dollars won which I withdrew soon after and they instantly credited the withdraw to my wallet.I doubt there would have been any difference if that 1339 dollars would have been 13339 dollars for example,the same would have happened as real reputable casinos do audit all of their games they offer on a daily basis or on a weekly basis as a very minimum,so there is nothing to be worried,I am verified in these casinos so need to send documents to them from my side.

As predicted Ferraris are very competitive in this track.
The timers are still slow.

The pole position for 2023 was from Verstappen win 1.16.7, so we are almost 0.5 sec behind now.
With the improvements of cars and no changes in the track is easy to expect a poleposition for 1.16.0 or maybe even under.

If things go like that and even in Pole Position after official qualifying we have Leclerc and Sainz third then it means that we most likely are going to watch a beautiful race much different from the first 2 we have seen so far a total domination of Redbull.The problem though is that Max is there with just less than 0.4 seconds behind and I am sure he has not pushed to the max in the FP1 or FP2 but maybe also Ferrari have not pushed although I doubt it and I think that Verstappen will still be able to get the Pole Position tomorrow simply because he still has the best car out there to drive and I am sure he wants to win this title as soon as possible as the future is not known to the drivers,to some drivers at least.

I have only took part in scratching tickets which are instant lotteries,you know right in the instant if you have won or not.There are many other lotteries here,with much bigger prizes but they have a problem for me,if you win you have to be on TV thanking the ones who have implemented the lottery and I never want to be known I am some sort of gambler,although playing national lottery once a week does not make you a true gambler and that is the reason why I never play the national lottery which is 15 from 90 or 6 from 49 which are called Bingo and National Lottery so no I like to be playing online in the comfort of my sofa while no one really knows I am a gambler.
586  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🏁🏎️ Sportsbet.io🏁 FORMULA 1 2024 Season🏁🏎️Prediction Pool Discussion Thread on: March 21, 2024, 04:46:58 PM
This is the longest straight, so I think Max is going to get 40 seconds lead if he wins Tongue

In the longest straight you come after a very technical part which is most of this track and this was one of my favorite tracks.I don't think the lead of Max is going to be that big.The reason for that is very simple,I was scrolling through the social media pages and saw the review of the last race in 2023,I must say we had a lot of accidents during that race and since I don't think much has changed for the cars during this season,they will still be very close to each other and so I predict again lots of incidents during this upcoming race which would make this much better in terms of dynamics and emotions during the race,much different than those races we have already seen,very much boring ones.

I guess I don't really know how it works, but in my very amateur mind for F1, based on PS games lol if you have 1 long drag stretch of road, your car will eat up all the road and make every lap 1 second gap. But you're right, accidents will take that all away, so maybe I shouldn't have predicted such a huge gap in my Predictions.

As long as it's not boring nobody will complain. But you know, everyone's already complaining it's boring and I have to agree. This is like Manchester City waiting for Klopp to make things exciting again.

I think the fact that the drivers complained from last year race that they barely had sun light in the ending laps of the track surely have impacted those number of incidents.I think despite the race starting one hour earlier still I think it is not because of low sun light but because they were near each other many times last race because of the safety car coming in.The fact that most cars have not a huge gap compared to each other excluding Redbull of course will surely make this race much more colorful than those 2 first races we had so far.

Personally I only look forward to only this race that does not take place in Europe where the best F1 tracks are,all other races outside of Europe are boring usually.

There are lots of such platforms luckily for you and facing difficulties to place live bets or waiting for your withdrawal as most of such great platforms including the one in my signature are there to fill these gaps.I personally at Stake where I play have never had any problems withdrawing any amount in less than a minute as long as you are level 2 verified there.The same to be in many other several alike platforms so during these days it is easy to get what you want.
588  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does pragmatic play bonus buy really worth it? on: March 21, 2024, 12:54:09 PM
It seems like you're caught up in the excitement of playing Pragmatic Play games on Stake.com. While the graphics are impressive, the returns from the bonus buy feature might not be worth it especially if you're frequently losing. It's puzzling why many users still opt for it, considering the high cost and limited winnings. Sure Pragmatic's games are visually appealing but when it comes to winning, they might not be your best bet especially without a 0.1$ minimum bet option. Exploring other providers with better returns could be worth a shot

Not only that but the problem nowadays with the new games they release with the x1000 feature like Gate of Olympus 1000,StarLight Princess 1000 and the most brutal Sugar Rush 1000 usually is not worth at all,this last game especially which lately Pragmatic is moving to that,adding beside the buy bonus,buy the super bonus at x500 your bet and most of the times you will lose with few times just making it to x500,so absolutely absolutely not worthy at all the Pragmatic games anymore.

It is not yet official but Ferrari has said in a communication that Sainz should be able to participate in this week's Grand Prix in Australia.

However, Bearman is with the team and will take his place if needed.

The team manager also spoke and declared that Ferrari will adopt a very aggressive strategy this week, will they be able to fight with Max?
Ferrari historically does well on this track.

This track in the last race of 2023 was impacted by heavy incidents.This is about to happen again in this season although drivers complained about low sun light in the closing stages of the race so now the race will be even one hour earlier and us Europeans will suffer to watch the race a bit as we need to sacrifice some sleep.Nevertheless one thing is sure in this track and that is this is not going to be boring like the first two races,Safety Car should have an odd of 1.03 or something like that in this track.
590  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Feelings on losing the match and the bet on: March 21, 2024, 08:06:25 AM
Do you feel sad when your favorite team loses a match and the bet (if you had placed a bet on that match)?

It is part of every sport where a team loses and a team wins the match. A team is happy and a team is sad, not only in cricket but in other sports too like basketball, volleyball and the last best sport Football.

Also, a match isn't considered a loss but if that match is a final, semi final or such a big match for example between two rivalry teams then it will be like this, but at the same time for us, even if the match isn't important in the context of the series but we place the bet and lose it, it's our lost booked and there are no second thoughts about it.

When your team wins you have happiness. Everything goes wrong including your mood and emotions if the team on which we place the bet loses the match unexpectedly.

That is normal to lose money as it is part of the bet but when you lose in a game where a team plays the most ugly football ever seen like Real Madrid did against Leipzig in the return leg then it is totally normal to get mad at losing one bet.When you bet on a team you support and win it is just normal happiness of winning a bet and it does not contain more happiness than when you win from a team you don't support and you just bet on them.
591  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: March 20, 2024, 09:01:48 PM
I can't wait to see Real Madrid humiliated again,those pugs who never took the return game against Leipzig seriously and they were lucky that they got a draw in the end as Leipzig nearly scored the second goal when they hit the post in the last minute of the game,so a lucky saved Real Madrid.I lost a huge amount of money because of those carefree players which against a team like Manchester City do not stand a chance at all in my opinion and will be completely dominated by Manchester City in both games.I am sure that City against a team like Real Madrid will not play defensively at all even when playing at Bernabeu,after the show against Leipzig Real Madrid truly deserves only the worse of the worse and I will be there seeing their demise from Manchester City,I have absolutely 0 doubts about it.

CONCLUSION
Gambling should be fun, it's better to stay away when it has started to become a problem.

People will hardly understand this advise because once they start gambling they never become tired of it but wants to continue gambling just because of having earning way. There is no doubt that at start people are gambling just for fun and if they become successful at first bet then their interest increases because they think that their luck is shining which will always help them to win in gambling.


The thing is that gambling is always like a trap for the weak minded because their is always the win get draws them closer and changes that fun mentality of theirs especially when they secured a good spree of winning and then later experience one or two loses, that lose tend to trigger and  activate that urge to gamble more and when this starts, the ability to stop is then now the problem because they would be so keen in trying to meet up with the previous figures they won on their betting account.

That is a well known problem but the real problem is that the person does not realize that he got a problem gambling until he sees the consequences of his action,some people have left their wives,their houses and sometimes in the dramatic tragic ending of taking one own life,that is for the weak minded.A real strong person can realize the problem and can be able to quit gambling as soon as he sees that his actions are leading nowhere and he is only losing money constantly on the long run,so the strong will of a person is the key to stopping the gambling addiction.Personally I have been able to quit for some time now the slot machines as I have only seen constant loses from three consecutive months now,either I have the worse possible luck or either the slots are rigged by the providers.

Sainz is back! I still think he won't have a great race though. Oc I got no reason to think so other than he might get too eager to win after missing Jeddah Wink

Yet to make my picks, just never know what things can look like at the end.

This is the longest straight, so I think Max is going to get 40 seconds lead if he wins Tongue

In the longest straight you come after a very technical part which is most of this track and this was one of my favorite tracks.I don't think the lead of Max is going to be that big.The reason for that is very simple,I was scrolling through the social media pages and saw the review of the last race in 2023,I must say we had a lot of accidents during that race and since I don't think much has changed for the cars during this season,they will still be very close to each other and so I predict again lots of incidents during this upcoming race which would make this much better in terms of dynamics and emotions during the race,much different than those races we have already seen,very much boring ones.

I also hope to not see so much politics involved in the matches, and im talking about this because two of the national teams who are involved are Ukrayne and Israel and we all know they are at top focus for mass media, and im very oppose to see sports and politics mixed.

I agree with you as long as the football players representing those countries do not involve themselves in politics because if they do I am fully convinced they need to be banned from the competition to keep sports clean from politics.The problem is as with every thing else in real life politics is involved everywhere and football is no exception to this,we have seen many circumstances where politics have made not so much of a correct decision.

The teams involved in war like those mentioned above should only focus on football to cheer up their citizens with Ukraine being in an over 2 year war with Russia is surely the team I would cheer for more than others but that is just my opinion.I know this upcoming Euro Cup will be great to enjoy.
595  Other / Off-topic / Re: Who does gambling addiction affect the most? on: March 20, 2024, 01:51:10 PM
It has a huge impact on the person itself as over the long run gambling addiction has created a huge percentage of people suffering from cancer because of the unnoticed high level of stress that it brings to the person while he does not notice it because the dopamine his brain emits during gambling make him to do so,despite that the level of stress impacts or favors the creation of bad cells who lead to very bad consequences.This should be enough of a reason for people to stop yet they don't.
596  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Streamer's fan took his own life due to addiction on: March 20, 2024, 12:12:05 PM
A sad reality of online streaming that also doubles as a gambling promotion is that it can have unknown consequences with its widespread reach. As it recently came to light, a fan of Adin Ross took his own life. The controversy however was much more than just this fact. The controversy stemmed from the fact that Adin Ross' editor, being completely apathetic to these news of a man taking his own life, called it "old news" in a dismissive tone.

Source: https://www.sportskeeda.com/esports/news-rip-him-adin-ross-editor-confirms-kick-star-reacted-fan-taking-life-due-gambling-addiction

Adin Ross is one of the most famous streamers in the world right now, with his content having hundreds of thousands of hours in watch time. Of course much of his content is direct promotion to slots games and such gambling. Perhaps Kick should add some limits to how "controversial" a streamer can be in their platform. People like Ross were banned from twitch after maaany violations.

What do you think about this? Do such people deserve a platform even on Kick?

They should be allowed only if they abide by a code of conduct and use a lot of disclaimers so they are not allowed to speak whatever they want and as such to be impacting people with low self esteem as only people with low self esteem use dramatic measures like taking their own life.

I have never even thought about it and I have been with just 30 cents in my pocket with a family to feed and lots of debt to pay yet I thought whatever happens I will solve this situation.
597  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can you stake it all put of over confidence in your club on: March 20, 2024, 11:21:27 AM
Have anyone ever had confidence in any match that he was willing to be huge amounts to back up the confidence in a match that features his club. A friend of mine recently shocked me with how much passion and confidence he had in his club, man u vs liverpool  that happened on Sunday I guess was a very hard match cause Liverpool was already stomping 0:2 to man United but my friend was telling that man United won't lose the match, so I told him that if he has much confidence that he should stake life, shocking to me he went on and staked 5k on man United win to qualify which was about 7 odds at that time, and yeah it turned out right for him. Can any one do this or was it a foolish move?

Foolish move in most cases but in the case of your friend is one of the rare cases with that saying that goes fortune favors the bold.By the way the game was never 0-2,was 1-2 for a long time and Manchester United only equalized near the end of the game so that was truly a fortune favors the bold thing.

In most other cases though people lose a lot of money and that damage their life rather than improving it like in the case of your friend.So it is a foolish move in 99% of the cases and I have never done that.
598  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Football teams create a kind of community on: March 20, 2024, 10:46:21 AM
Recently I've been reading about the tension and division that football can put amongst people making it look as tho they are part of a different community or even county, like when two famous clubs are playing, and members of the same family or friends would be against each other forgetting other bonds they once had and going all out to support their club or née family they belong to.

The point is why does football create such a tension and division that can even result to fight and dispute sometimes.

I think those cases are not much although there some of them in the world as you say in very famous derby games like Inter Milan vs Milan or the hottest of all derbies I would judge to be Boca Juniors vs River Plate in Argentina.I also don't understand family members that fight over football games as that is not very logical,though I understand that humans are driven by emotions and that is why such things happen.These are rare events so this is a good thing.
599  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is not place to make money is place to lose it? on: March 19, 2024, 10:08:53 PM
Is this true gambling is not place to make money is place to lose it?
I would speak for myself, I don't know for others but I would not accept the fact as gambling being a place or a means of losing money. Gambling is not a source of income neither a job we should leave on, despite many pushing the motion we gamble just for fun alone it doesn't make sense because even during that intention to catch fun through gambling their is this urge to win and make money from it. Most people do lie to themselves, I enjoy winning every of my gambling but it's inevitable to not lose and I do not enjoy losing my money.

Let us put it this way, gambling should not be treated as a means of earning your income in any way. Treat it as a past time where you can enjoy yourself at the end of the day. But do not think that you can triple your money on it. If you will just make yourself this as an entertainment, you won't expect much from this game, and you will truly experience the fun side of it.

Many people start by doing that and they don't expect much except they want to have some fun.All is good until now but this also poses the risk for these persons to start overdoing it,once you start doing some thing,the same thing and you see that you are constantly losing this can spark in you the desire to get the money back which is the worse trigger that puts you directly into gambling addiction.

That is how many people start to gamble from the fun part to the real part and they start losing money in a consecutive way,this is where they realize they have come to this vicious circle and that they find it very difficult to come out of it.So no matter if you start gambling just for fun,as a leisure activity after work it can still impact your life for the worse if you are not careful.

Losing $300 but you wagered 5k only,,,this is a bad luck or maybe you forced yourself to wager quickly by using big base bet?
I was playing the game normally. Actually I was looking for profit and wager at the same time. That's why I couldn't wager enough with my deposits. Because my luck didn't favour me. And I'm not going to be eligible for any good bonus drop with this wager on the next weekly stream.

I don't think that is that bad,usually in Stake they have a ratio of x20 wagered for your deposit money from my personal experience when you have what I call neutral luck so that means if you wagered 5k you missed just 1k from what I will call the average wagered amount of x20 that is supposed to be depending again on the luck of the person.

I also agree that playing originals greatly increases your chances of wagering more as no matter how a bad luck you have,for example in Limbo,if you play let's say with 0.01 dollars bet and you put an x1000 as an objective/target from my personal experience you will achieve it quite a few times the longer you play.
