He should not. We might not even recognize him when he shave that beard.
People will just say. Who is the new guy? Did they win a trade?   Grin

Harden's brand is his beard, and he is a star player so that beard is really big for him... if I remember correctly, I saw a fan with a postcard during the game that has a words " fear the beard"... they should fear this man as he travels a lot, he is sometimes called the traveler too.
That's maazing footsteps where even the referees unable to determine whether to call or not hahaha.. That trademark step back from the 3 point range,
The Beard really made his own name and create his own identity no need to compare him to other players but he have it's own one.
62  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Reputation at stake will you stop gambling on: April 09, 2020, 07:45:54 AM
Why would I intend to stop playing gambling if I know to myself that I am not doing anything wrong?
Indeed that you are not doing anything wrong if you are only gambling; however, in the eyes of other people, gambling is an activity that they can easily be judged or talk bad.
If your own reputation is at stake, I am sure stopping your gambling activity is necessary even if it is just for fun. At the end of the day, reputation is much important when it comes to this matter.

Yes in several occasions reputations is much important, but not if the person knows how to handle his activities and engagements. Minding things
should be in the person capabilities to take care of his actions.
For those who are concern with how people will talk about them will see this as important matters but to those are not concern they will let
this to continue and enjoy.
63  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling a threat or fun? on: April 09, 2020, 06:10:02 AM
I am among those who think gambling is fun, because in my opinion gambling should be fun and not a threat. In my opinion gambling
is a threat because it is addictive, so it can have many negative effects. Therefore we must be able to limit in playing gambling, don't
overdo it. If you can limit yourself to playing gambling, I'm sure gambling will become a lot of fun.
The entertaining factors are there but if you exceed from your limitations then yes it's really dangerous to you and it's going to become
a threat since addictions will be the outcome results of your too much engagement with this activities.
Enjoy but not to play that much in order to limit your stay and the money that you'll be spending.
64  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Ways to recover from being addicted in gambling. on: April 08, 2020, 11:18:57 AM
Thinking and calculating how much you have totally lost in gambling might give you a knock in your head if you truly want to recover from your addiction and quit gambling.

There are several methods and you have to choose what's the most comfortable for you.

This is not the best way to quit gambling.
Sometimes, calculating your losses lead you to gamble even more in order to recover them.
And this activity puts you in a vicious cycle that you cannot escape.
Correct, this also possible and it will only brings you to more depressions and it will lead you to play more in order to recover those losses.
Instead of keeping you away it will gives more aggressions to try your luck once you have money to use.
The best way is to have a self will and consider all those mistake and move forward.
65  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Suggestions for online gamblers on: April 08, 2020, 11:06:43 AM
snip..
These are great points a gambler should always remember before betting their whole life for a one more game. Life is much more precious, many opportunities and possibilities ahead, gambling is just one of them, one game, win or lose could change your life; how you live and interact with other people around you. Also, a gambler should always consider and expect anything when they make a move, so they could value their decisions more and wisely.

I am afraid that many gamblers don't use that suggestion before they played some games because the first time people come to the gambling place is because of they curious about the game and it feels to gamble with money. Suddenly, they realize that they are losing money, but that does not make them stop playing gambling. Those tips should be known by all gamblers so they don't risk their money in gambling because there will be many other things that more important than playing gambling in their life.
People who are losing money intend to recover everything, this is the big mistake that most gamblers have in common trying to find luck and forget about limitations, with this guide being implemented correctly a gambler will be able to save himself in great problems that gambling addiction might bring to him and his family. It should be a must to take into consideration before playing.
66  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do some gamblers actually win? on: April 07, 2020, 08:33:49 PM
if we make a poll if a gambler, ever wins? then I'm sure 100% of the poll says yes...
but the winning ratio of each gambler differs depending on the luck of the gambler, ps; I lost more - than I won  Cheesy
Most cases are the same, it's more on the losing side than the winning part, but gamblers who loves to play and enjoy the set up will continue.
In terms of winning it will going to depend from how a gambler treat things. If player is satisfied with decent earnings and quit while still in
positive it's how you control yourself in order to say that you are winning and earning from this business.
67  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Any Casino with good Investment Returns? on: April 07, 2020, 08:10:28 PM
I think a few years ago they used to have a few sites that tracked investment when I first started watching them but in the end because of the many scams (exit scams) these sites stopped tracking and what we are left with basically are the same options we had several years ago except that most have closed public investments.

I have not been at bitvest for long but their investment in bitcoin seems to be as good as yolodice when it was still operating. And we all know CGN just closed that was good until they blocked me from depositing because of location:(

Exist scams are still around and we need to be careful about that.
This is why I am asking about a legit online casino where it accepts investments as a part of their bankroll.
In this case we raise awareness about the legit casinos.
Good for bringing this here, from investors own experienced each investment site will be sort out, but it also need for  investors to continue the assessment and research in order to learn deeper regarding to legitimacy of the site.
Deposit your money and fund the investment once you are already convinced that your money have a greater chance to grow.

kung napapanood mo yung john wick ginamit din nila yun...

Kung tama ung pagkakaalala ko e physical gold coins[1] ang gamit nila sa John Wick movies. Or is there something I missed?


[1] https://johnwick.fandom.com/wiki/Gold_Coin
Inakala ko rin na bitcoin yan dati kasi nga underworld transactions and ung halos pagkakakilala sa bitcoin before eh about sa mga illegal na transactions.
Salamat sa link para na rin sa mga taong katulad ko na nag akala at nagbigay agad ng conclusion.
Patungkol naman sa thread ni OP, masyado talagang naihype ng mga illegal activities ang bitcoin nuong mga naunang pagkakataon pero sana nga magkaroon ng mga ibang write ups and mga documentaries na positive side naman ang kilingan.

To be on a safer side better to be away for some time even if the virus has being defeated and to stay safe better to be away as you never know that how fatal it could be in future if one of those still being positive and do not know himself about it .  Nobody would like to take that risk and better to be safe than taking such high risk chances .
Learned from how things has been spread out, we are not sure that even the virus has been contained the places that we usually go and gamble are
safe, the virus can stay for a while so best to not to take the risk.
Staying away for another months also save some money knowing that chances of being rigged is very high from casino places.

It will become a threat if you are having to much fun, just be sure to only spend what you can afford to lose and do not spend to much time on it, and always watch out your motivation, don't ever think of thinking that you can make money out of it, nobody can and nobody will make money out of it.
Not in general, for sure there are people who are good in terms of playing this business, though numbers of successful gamblers versus those who've got addicted and suffered from this vices is just an inch but in some instances those people do exist.
Having the right mentalities gives you the entertainment but always remember to set your limitations to avoid those bad effects of this activities.
71  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and health 🤕symptoms on: April 06, 2020, 04:20:08 PM
Generally people with gambling addiction may face depression, migraine, distress, intestinal disorders, and other anxiety-related problems. As with other addictions, the consequences of gambling can lead to feelings of despondency and helplessness. This is a disease which opens gate for other diseases.

Strange, when gambling has so many side effects with it, why people still even play gambling. As per your words, it look like gambling is more dangerous than coronavirus.
I am happy that you did not say that gambling addiction may face coronavirus too  Cheesy
Funny if that will happen, though there's different effects but this coronavirus will eliminate your life without a cure yet, while gambling addiction can be cured if you are willing to help yourself.
It have to be your own will to protect yourself and eliminate this problem inside your mind. Your own willingness will bring curement to your problem.
72  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Chess online? on: April 06, 2020, 12:10:08 PM
it is hard to have good online chess tournaments, with unverified players, due to many chess simulation programs, that could be used for cheating on both sides, you just set the same game on a chess master software, put high level play by computer, and simulate all moves from your online game, since you do not have to use same computer, it is really hard to control it in online environment, and trust between players has to be on high level
Which is possibly can be done since you are competing from different locations. It would be tough to any creator building such service where they'll be able
to patronize the game without being cheat by both players from the other sides of the world.
73  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you keep track of your gambling? how? on: April 06, 2020, 11:28:54 AM
if yes, how do you track it?
simples spreadsheets, physical notebooks or maybe some different way?

I am using different spreadsheets for every bookie out there. Once every month i migrate all my spreadsheets to my master-spreadsheet. This gives me a good overview of my wins and losses. It also helps me to track my bets and odds. If you trying to be a semi-professional gambler this is essential. You can't just login to a bookie and gamble. You need some kind of strategy - even if you end up loosing a lot (most times) anyway  Wink.
Exactly, if you are really into this business the best practice is to sort things out, if you are well aware of those expense money that you are using
you'll be guided to track the right patterns, having tools like this allows you to minimize both your stay and the money that you are using each time
you are seeing that you do have losing streak and the outcome is not favoring you.
74  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crowded Casinos - Play or not? on: April 06, 2020, 11:01:25 AM
snip >>>

some officials report it might be ten times higher than the known cases. This makes it very dangerous to go to crowded places without getting infected, no matter if its a casino, a sports game or a church. Stay home for now and visit a casino a later time this year.

Maybe everyone should be aware of this so they will know the risk, we can't take chances, we only have one life and if that will be taken to us, it will be over. There are still a lot of opportunity to gamble, we know that gambling in a physical casino gives a different kind of fulfillment but versus the risk, it's not worth taking.
The risk of having social interactions by going to offshore casinos, now that this virus is keep affecting more and more people the chance of using
online casinos will be more favorable, after this virus and once gamblers learn the advantages of online casinos the practice of going to offshores
will be lessen, only those who are aiming to feel the thrill and enjoy people around will proceed and playback but those who are care especially with
their health online casino will replace the venue.
75  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Suggestions for online gamblers on: April 06, 2020, 10:45:47 AM
Good point OP, taking this perspectives before playing will allow you to have a good mindset and avoid you to make a high risk betting activities. If you have this practice inside you, the risk will be much lesser. Most of the time those gamblers who knows how to handle pressures and didn't listen to their emotional side are the one who able to enjoy and gain decent profits from this activities.

mukhang maganda na ang takbo nang presyo ngayon nang bitcoin sana tuloy tuloy na ito para maka bawi naman.nasa 6.8k na sa ngayon...
Maganda ang uptrend price ng bitcoin ngaun ang presyo nasa $6,9k na. Actually maganda yan maraming positive mindset sa presyo ng bitcoin at madami tayong user na naghohold ng bitcoin din. Ito na sana ang signs na magtuloy tuloy ito kahit mayroon tayong kinakaharap na crisis.
Patuloy pa rin ang pag angat kahit na maliit na hakbang lang basta pataas nagkakaroon ng magandang impact na kahit na merong virus meron pa rin talagang mga investors na willing mag take ng risk at maghold, sana lang wag na munang maging whale trap sana maging mas malakas pa sa mga
darating na araw, positive vibes naman sana makita natin konting ingat at observe ng maayos.

For me ang pinaka good side is to have bonding with your family, actually talaga tayo dahil sa work so medyo konte nalang ang time natin sa family.
May iba nga diyan na monday to saturday and work, tapos sunday kung minsan may OT pa, puro tayo work ng work at kulang na tayo sa quality time with our family, this is the time for bonding na.

Oo nga eh, iba rin talaga kapag sama2x yung mga magpapamilya tsaka yung pagkukwentuhan ay legit talaga. Isa rin yung pagtigil ng mga factories sa mga kagandahan dulot ng CoVid-19 dahil napapatigil nito kahit papaano ang malalang polution dulot ng mga factories na ito. Wala talagang magagawa ang mga may-ari nito dahil kung ipagpatuloy nila ang gawain, baka sa susunod sila na ang ma pasahan ng sakit. kaya wala silang magagawa.

Temporarily okay siya, pero kung tatagal pa ito magugutom tayo dahil darating ang araw na baka hindi na kayanan ng bansa natin ang pag bibigay ng konsumo. Ngayon nga ang konte lang ng bigay, nasa 5k to 8k lang, samantalang ang laki ng ganstusin natin.. sana matapos ang quarantine at wala ng new cases.
Sana wag naman na umabot dun, sana magkaroon na ng gamot para makarecover na ang bawat taong apektado ng virus na ito, hindi naman natin nakita yung mga good side before, pero ngayon natutunan nating tignan ang bagay bagay habang naandito tayo sa kalagayang ganito.
Yung ayuda kasi ng gobyerno mauubos yun pag nag extend pa itong lock down, ingat at sumunod sana tayong lahat sa gobyerno para makaiwas sa sakit.

Talagang hindi maiiwasan ung mga ganitong klase ng actibidad lalo na ngayon na merong lumalaganap na virus, nakakita ng opportunidad ung mga hackers at scammers para makapang lamang ng kapwa kaya dapat mas laliman yung kaalaman patungkol sa mga ganitong klaseng attempts. Kung
sakaling magmamagandang loob ka, mas mabuti na siguro sa government mo na lang diretso or ikaw na mismo ang gumawa ng charity works mo.

well, I really agree with what you say at least when you want to jump in and enter the world of gambling, you must be able to prepare 2 possibilities, to be rich or poor suddenly, pray to be rich suddenly from gambling.
You no need to be worried about losing all your money if you have self control over your betting money.If someone is poor then they should no try to make money with gambling because they are going to lose more money than they earn which may not be affordable for poor.
Precisely, if you are into this with limited resources that ill be a very high risk for your money, you should always think about possibilities as
luck will not always at your side. Unlike those who only use spare money and can let go after losing.
They are not prone to any addiction, before you choose what type of gambling to play better to think also if how good you are in controlling
your emotion.

Not only traditional casinos on this issue at least all places that can be a crowd or a crowd of people should at least be eliminated even though there are still some who get an exception but with a rule. So, as long as this problem or the case of this pandemic continues to increase, as much as possible for us to do anything at home, because if we can isolate independently of course it is an effort for us to break the spread of the virus that is increasingly troubling. Well, with the digital world at least any activity that can be done in virtual form or like online gambling will be a choice we have to do in this situation.

there's also the fact that casinos are always close spaces with air conditioning so these are the worst in terms of contagious possibility.

of course online gambling is not the same as offline but this will have to do until the pandemic is gone or we find a vaccine.
A good alternative indeed as this pandemic virus still continue to spread out, the option is to stay at home to have lesser chances of being infected.

With the help of online casinos people who loves to continue playing are still capable to deal with this activities, much safer and also with convenient
playing inside your house.
