601  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin ETF approved, next Ethereum ETF? on: January 12, 2024, 08:50:09 PM
As we all know, the Bitcoin ETF is already approved. So, do you think the next ETF for Ethereum will be approved as well? Many companies, including BlackRock, have filled the Ethereum ETF as well. I believe the line is already clear to approve the Ethereum ETF since the SEC gave green light to the Bitcoin ETF. We have noticed significant price movements on Ethereum since Bitcoin EFT was approved. I don't see any reason not to approve the Ethereum ETF as well. The deadline is May for the Ethereum ETF. We have to wait for that. What's your thoughts about Ethereum ETF?

With the approval of Bitcoin Spot ETF, I do agree that it has open the floodgates for other crypto to apply as well including Ethereum. However, the question is, how do SEC look at Ethereum? If I'm not mistaken, they have deem it as a securities? And so with that decision of SEC, it could hurt ETH or it could help it  as well.

With that, it's going to be a long battle for Ethereum in my opinion. Even Bitcoin took years as well to have their first ETF approved. And so, it will be the same with ETF and there should be some entities that will really have to back it up to be able to get approval like Bitcoin. With the likes of entities like BlackRock and other big institutions that SEC has no choice but to give in with the demand.

It is common to lose here,I know it is a shame when you lose a multi ticket with those odds for just one leg but I still cannot forget Sacramento Kings losing with a 1.07 odd and that should be enough of a red flag to stop betting on this league although it is the best for basketball.I of course continue to bet in this league too,

That's because 1.07 odds does not guarantee a team will win, you are only unlucky if you bet on that team and they lose. Don't make that as a hindrance for betting on NBA games, that's just one game, move on to that and focus on the other games. Sure you will miss the fun if you will not come back betting, hehe.
Quote

I copy other people multi bets and hope for the best but usually give a look to the bet I am copying so I know I copy bets with over and not money line options.

I copy with single bets not on multi. Doing multi bet is just purely for fun for me, because I know it's hard to win on parlay even its lowest multi.

I do sometimes copy others as well, I do agree that multi bet is really hard to win unless you are really that lucky that everything falls on your lap and win that huge odds. And with the games right now totally unpredictable, it's very hard to win.

Like the games that we had the other night, multiple OT's and then the Bucks with a huge win against the favorite Boston. OKC as well just dominating the Portland team and then Lakers who we thought could have gotten over their woes, but was beaten by a Beal lead Phoenix Suns.
603  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Anthony Joshua vs. Francis Ngannou - March 9 on: January 12, 2024, 12:53:17 PM
I think 5.60 via KO doesn't have that much value.  I'd rather take it straight at 4.20.  Not a big difference.

5.60 KO for me too, I think if Ngannou will win, it would be by KO. AJ showed some weakness in his previous fights, while AJ are trying to make a strategy on how to defeat Ngannou, I'm sure the camp of Ngannou also understands that and will focus on their own strategy. With heavyweight fights from KO artist, going to judges decision is less likely, so it should be a KO.

Yeah, it might be hard for the judges to give the nod for Ngannou if the fight goes to distance, similar to what we've witnessed in the Fury fight. There are some boxing fans that thought that Fury didn't do enough to win in that fight and that Francis with the strength of his knockdown, could have won that fight.

And here and with AJ questionable chin, chances are, if he hit that one punch to the chin, then maybe we can see a KO win.

So it make sense to go on this route and bet by KO instead of a straight up ML at 4.20. At least Ngannou has control of on he is going to win, instead of letting the judges, that might screw him again.
604  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does signing up with affiliate links gives these benefits? on: January 12, 2024, 12:11:48 PM
Many youtubers and friends share their referral codes/affiliate links, saying you will get bonuses, real money, or free spins. but I wonder if casinos give extra help or benefits in some different situations.

For example, when someone wins a big multiplier and multiplies their account by 100x, then some casinos take a long time to process the withdrawal, or they may not even give the money. however, some say that if you sign up using a good affiliate or influencer affiliate code which have huge audience, then you won't face these type issues. also, if you promote the casino using your referral link, they might not hold back your withdrawal because you helped them get new customers.

is this kind of things is considered shady practice, or is it considered fair in the online gambling world?

This is very interesting topic, when it comes to referrals and affiliates, both of you will be having a benefits from casino, not only those streamers but also you. Now, as per your example, It seems that the delayed withdrawals are not connected to the issue of you not being able to register under streamers link,
because they won't be able to determine if you registered using their links or not, and you will benefit equally but it is better to be aware of this happening inside affiliated jobs. maybe it's just a coincidence that there are a lot of transactions so there are delayed payments.

No, casinos pay their influencers and so if they have affiliate links under them and they have issues, those influencers might get some audience with the casinos but it won't help a bit in my opinion. The only thing that affiliate can do is to help those who sign them, but for withdrawals they don't have any say as the final word will be the casino themselves.

That's why I don't sign with any affiliate as I know that they won't give a help. And instead they will just get money from me as their commissions. But I have nothing against those affiliates, each and everyone of us had to side hustle.
605  Economy / Speculation / Re: BitcoinETF approval will possibly cause much bigger jump than most people expect on: January 11, 2024, 06:39:26 PM
I was considering that price could hit $50K to $55K level, even after the launch, but seeing how price reacted today already I've ruled it out now and took profits at $48k. I always considered this new "Bitcoin product" launch as bearish, despite the long-term bullish applications, such as every other launch to date; CBOE, CME, ProShares, etc. You could also argue that it arrived at a bad time, just as price was at a key resistance level around $48K, which is the 0.618 fib retracement level from ATH to recent low, but it seems more like price had already moved as far as reasonably possible and was sitting just under distribution zone.

Am more or less bearish now until either $30K or May, whichever comes first. 2023 was a good year. I'm sure 2024 will end well, but first price needs to cool off considerably.

CME and CBOE launched though was at the peak of the bull run and it could have contributed to almost $20k December when it should have retraced already as the bull run has ended. Just like in 2021, the price didn't push as the highs have been hit in November.

And with today's news and when we thought that $50k is there for us to reach, the market didn't react and instead it made some early corrections as there are profit taking already. And so it could be that the effect of the approval is already price in at $48k and then we might see a heavy correction pre-halving.

I made some bitcoin withdrawal from block.io wallet
It has neither reached destination neither it is refunded to my block.io wallet what should I do

The fee that you used is 18.4 sat/vB.

If you check mempool right now, the fastest that your transaction can be confirmed is around 46 sat/vB. So it might take sometime for your transaction to be confirmed unless the mempool cleared (which I doubt).

It's going to be two weeks before your transaction will be dropped and refunded in your wallet as far as I know.
607  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: January 11, 2024, 01:21:14 PM
So Naoya Inoue is named as Boxer of the Year by Ring Magazine.

Quote
Naoya Inoue has won Ring Magazine’s prestigious Fighter of the Year award for his 2023 campaign which saw the 30-year-old boxer-puncher soundly defeat then-undefeated WBC/WBO 122-pound titleholder Stephen Fulton in July and WBA/IBF 122-pound beltholder Marlon Tapales in December to earn The Ring’s vacant junior featherweight title and undisputed champion status.

https://www.ringtv.com/662824-naoya-inoue-is-the-rings-2023-fighter-of-the-year/

I personally thought that it should be Crawford, but as per Ring, the strength of Inoue's win against Fulton and Tapales is enough for him to get the nod. Yes it's true they are the number 1 and number 2 rank super bantamweight, but the biggest fight is Crawford vs Spence and how Crawford demolished Crawford when everyone thought that it could go either way or close fight. As compare to Inoue's win wherein we expect that he will steam roll this two, just a question on what round it will end.
Well, I am not against it. Naoya Inoue also went through rigorous training so that he could cement all those wins that he had. About Crawford, I think he is next to him and if Inoue had failed to unify all the titles in that second weight class that he entered, then I believe Crawford would get the Boxer of the Year title.
But, this is actually nothing compared to what they have achieved. Both boxers have proven that they are the undisputed and how I wish they would meet in the boxing ring while they are still in their prime. But that's still far and the weight class difference is gapped by a lot. I think that will be impossible especially if Inoue decides to stick with the Super Bantamweight.
But we have seen the impossible become possible and Manny Pacquiao is living proof of it. From the flyweight division climbing to the welterweight even at his height.
Maybe we will see more exciting opponents if Inoue will also try to climb the ladder. He should really try to go upward if he is looking for greater competition.

It's a competition between Naoya Inoue and Terrence Crawford for Ring Magazine's boxer of the year. But in the end, I can't blame those who awarded it to Inoue, I mean unification fight as well in the super bantamweight and the way he take them to pieces, as he faces other champion as well is amazing.

Nothing to be ashamed for Crawford as a runner up, this is another year so maybe his rematch with Spence and then another fight might could help his case again in 2024 for BOTY. Although there could be argument that it's not that important, what's important is that he cemented his legacy already.
608  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2024 NBA Season on: January 11, 2024, 12:44:22 PM
How about the Boston Celtics coming from behind against the Minnesota Timberwolves? They played perfectly in the 4th quarter and had the lead but Twolves Antman tied the game so the game went to overtime. But there they showed how strong they are and Tatum ended up with 45 points while Brown had 35 points. Damn, these two offensive monsters. Cheesy

That's why I says that Tatum and Brown are the top duo in the NBA right now as they can both explode at the same time. It was a great game, ANT really did everything with that clutch FT and play defense on the other side against Tatum.

And I thought that they have a good chance to win when KAT pulled that 3 to make a good separation. But the Celtics come back and then KAT tried to hit another one but fortunately for the Celtics, he missed and then Tatum connect on the other end and that shift the momentum on their side for a hard fought win.
609  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Anthony Joshua vs. Francis Ngannou - March 9 on: January 11, 2024, 12:07:39 PM
Dont think that Ngannou would ever return to UFC. UFC rarely pay a million to a fighter (but fighters get more than a million if we calculate payment+ppv sales+victory bonus+sponsors). Here, from the start he got 10 times more he was earning in UFC. Now, as he has a place in board in PFL, media, fame, he dont really need to fight in mma to earn the same amount he earned in UFC.

Sure, but his boxing career could be short-lived if Joshua beats him easily. One of the reason for Fury's poor performance was no available material to analyse Ngannou's style and weaknesses. Joshua's team now has got at least something to work on.
But if Francis somehow manages to get that win, he's almost guaranteed to stay in boxing, and would likely get a fight with a winner of Fury Vs Usyk.


Francis has a surprising nice skill for a fighter - he can surprise opponent. He has surprised his last mma opponent with lots of wrestling, when everyone expected striking. He has surprised boxer with good boxing skills, enough to "not to look bad when fighting a champion". Most likely, or even 200% that he will surprise AJ and his team. Mark my words. Even if AJ wins, Francis is going to be different, not a straightforward running train with one loaded punch.

One of the reason for Fury's poor performance was no available material to analyse Ngannou's style and weaknesses.

That is why there is always not one, but two corner guys despite cut man in the corner. That is a ridiculous excuse honestly. If they had nothing to analyse, they must have adopted strategy during rounds, that is why they are there.

Lol, but yeah, if that is the excuse on Fury's fight, they whoever trains him, whether his father, it's a failure on their fight to recognized that the likes of Francis Ngannou who has the power, can knock him down in a fight and that's why happen.

They just got lucky that the judges give them that score, otherwise, it will also be a broken fight between him and Usyk as it really derailed their fight like what happen to Wilder losing to Parker. AJ should learn from this and so not be overconfident even if they are the overwhelming favorites against Ngannou.
610  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC ATH ~~~ on: January 09, 2024, 11:44:25 PM
That's the pattern. That's the 4-year cycle. So there's a reason to believe that the same might once again happen. However that is never an assurance. What happened in the past, even if a number of times already, therefore creating a pattern, might not happen again. So there is always another possibility of it not happening once again. But I think it will happen at least once more. I am almost certain that a new ATH will be reached within 2024 or early 2025.

We just continue hodling. What is certain is that the ATH which was reached way back in November of 2021 will never remain an ATH forever.

Yes, it's the pattern that hasn't been broken, so expect a bull run this year up to 2025, what could be the new all time high, anybody guess but I will speculate around $120k at least, conservative. Also, this has been discussed before, there are some pundits who think that we will see super cycles or bull runs in a different cycle, but so far that theory has been proven false already.

So just sit back and relax, we might be on for something big as this will be the first time that we might touch 6 digits. And also remember that we have the Bitcoin ETF's that has been taking the news as of late and this could really help the price to push to $100k at least.
611  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Beterbiev Vs Smith January 13 SATURDAY IBF / WBC / WBO LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT Title on: January 08, 2024, 09:32:29 PM
I do agree but it's boxing politics that really prevented us seeing big names like Bivol vs Beterbiev. Callum Smith might be a decent fighter, but he could still be the next victim of Beterbiev's power. But in any case, if this is a cherry pick fight, then so be it. However, if he wins here, I do hope that Top Rank will have to schedule their man Beterbiev vs Bivol.

There's no way that they can avoid each other, they are the only 2 champions in this division. And with the way fighters are reaching in this generation, they are going at a unification like Inoue, Crawford and Canelo at 168 lbs.

It's not just boxing politics but also global politics. The WBC banned Russian athletes from competing for their title. They have stated that Bivol is not eligible to fight for their belt, although for some reason Beterbiev is still allowed. Other sanctioning organizations have implemented a similarly stupid rule. https://www.badlefthook.com/2022/3/1/22956803/wbc-wbo-ibf-refuse-certify-title-fights-russian-belarusian-fighters-boxing-news-2022

Now that Saudia Arabia seems willing to offer a lot of money to make it happen, perhaps the organizations will do what's best for the sport even if they do it for entirely selfish reasons.

The boxing scenario is very different in this generation, in the past, they had a saying to be the best you have to beat the best, so they united titles, and promoters were more than willing to fit the best in their respective divisions, which is why in the past there are lineal champions.

But now we have so many champions and these are weak champions because their promotions see to it that they are picking easy opponents, look at Ryan Garcia, his Golden Boy promotions were cherry-picking fights but once he fought a capable champion, he was beaten easily.
These promoters and organizations need to see that they have to pair the best against the best.
It's good that we have Saudi promotions that are willing to spend a lot of money just to see big fights happen that other promoters don't want to promote.

Thanks for bringing this up, as lately I have been seeing a lot of great boxing fights specially in Tiktok when the great 4 kings are fighting against each other, Leonard, Hearns, Hagler and Duran. And I'm thinking this kind of great fights right now is not happening because of what we call boxing politics and then promoters protecting their boxers and wanted to be undefeated and then call them GOAT, like Floyd.

Maybe the oil rich country of Saudi can change that, with the money that they can offer this promoters, maybe they will think hard and discuss everything and have their best boxers fighting against each other as their could be offer that they can't refused from the Middle East.
612  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Mayweather vs Pacquiao II on: January 08, 2024, 09:02:56 PM
Are they in it again for the money? Maybe they ran out or just needed some quick buck to sustain their lifestyle again.

Anyway, I hope that there will be AI referees and judges to make sure that there's no corruption in the fight and see how it will fair on the results.
Really just that too obvious when these retired boxers would really be making out such exhibition event on which it is really for the money and since they do have that popularity and having that
known into the history of boxing then these dudes could really easily hook up people to watch. If you dont like on supporting for them to make money then you could always be free
on looking for the replay.  Cheesy

That's the very definition of exhibition matches, fights that we might have missed during their primes, although they have fought before and Floyd won. But this time, if they can still fight and then make huge money, then why not? And so with that, they can't missed their opportunity again as they know that fans are willing to pay to watch them fight again.

Its already anticipated that they would really be having this kind of set up, as for referee then it would really be that typical. I wont really be
even be shocked on the time that the fight would be having that TIE results. It is really just that for entertainment for boxing
fans but due to that history of both fighters then it cant be avoided that there would really be always those discussions on whose better.

It could end in a draw or still Floyd winning the fight. But it doesn't matter though as this is not a professional fight, all for the money and records are not affected. And again, as you have said, it's for entertainment purposes only so this could not be counted for the discussions as who is better as we think or at least majority here thinks that Manny has a great career as compare to Floyd, just saying.

Drama alert…

Ryan Garcia divorced his wife one hour after their child was born. I haven’t heard any reason why, but speculation on the internet is that the baby came out looking very much not like Ryan Garcia… I guess we’ll have to wait to learn the truth, but that’s a wild story.

You're wrong. Here's the photo of the child and he's going to get Ryan's name. It's his kid.
https://www.instagram.com/p/C1vR2FLP2ea/?hl=en
After reading some articles about it I came to a conclusion that they were preparing for a divorce for months and she got pregnant during that period. I believe the child was unplanned since they wanted to split up, but after the news came out, they agreed to do it after the birth.

Back to the topic, his next fight is going to be Romero or Haney.

Hard to comment on what's going on with Ryan's personal life.

But yes, back to topic, there are photos of him and Mayweather lately doing some training, like light jogging and maybe some sparring sessions. So he might be hooking with the legendary boxer and maybe try to get the insights of him brain.

Not saying that Ryan will be like Mayweather or something, but it's good for him to have a mentor like Floyd, just saying. It will be good if him and Haney will be fighting next, they have been rivals in the 135 lbs but we haven't seen fight fight at that division. Maybe the best fight for them is as 140 lbs with no rehydration clause or no issue about the weight.

Sorry mate, I'm going on the opposite team. I just felt that the Lakers will win tonight and will stop their losing streak. They are struggling, a good win here will again boost their confidence. Pretty sure everyone is thinking that Clippers will easily beat the Lakers, but I did back my old Lebron for their team to win straight up.  Smiley
There's no need to apologize and well done on believing the Lakers.  Wink

The Clippers kept it close despite missing so many shots today, going below 40% in FGs, and I was hoping for a potential OT in the fourth when they went on a small run to tie the game.

The Lakers got their well-deserved win after getting those back to back buckets in the final few minutes.

It was indeed a deserved win for the Lakers, this time around it wasn't just Anthony Davis and Lebron James, or Austin Reaves bailing them out, every guy out fit or coming from a rough patch contributed significant to the victory, D'Angello Russell, Chris Wood, Prince and Jared all signifcant impact to Lakers the W, hopefully this can help them find some rhythm down their next few games when AD and Reaves or Lebron can't help save the day.

Yep, it was a really a team effort from the Lakers, they all contributed and really work very hard to get this win.

I'm looking at the Bucks vs Utah game, and I think the Bucks will win to bounce back here, it will be in their homecourt and maybe Giannis exploding again with a huge game same with Lilard. So they want win with a double digit here.

Line starts at -7.5.
615  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2024 NBA Season on: January 08, 2024, 10:24:24 AM
If Powell once against sink that buzzer beater 3 pointer and send the game to OT, I think the Lakers could've lost this game.
I believe so, that was a great shot by Powell, I almost went in and things could be different for the Lakers. Maybe the Lakers are just lucky tonight, they end their losing streak by fighting the hard way. I also commend the effort of Lebron, he played well in making Leonard struggle since Leonard was pretty limited in this game.

A much needed win, and they got it. "Congratulations LA Lakers!"

It could be a different ball game if they force that OT, I wasn't able to watch the full game though, I just see some in the 3rd quarter when the Lakers are making a comeback and then take that lead with D'Lo sinking that 3 and then Woods have a drive, then block Zubac on the other end.

I guess they stay on that energy in the 4th quarter, obviously they are rivals and Lakers wanted to proved something. I guess they just needed this kind of hard fought win to bring back their mentality in the season again as this is a great win for them.
616  Economy / Gambling / Re: Does anyone find the spate of online casinos a bit uninspired? on: January 07, 2024, 11:46:51 AM
I did not really get the idea of OP. He is disappointed that someone in a rush make a bad copy big casinos design and do it in a rush? Or in general that dev dont bother much on design when they make a casino?

Imo most of casino look the same, because they have game providers and games. There is little to do when we speak about design and gambling. For example the table is often green or blue. Slots must be simple, so they wont load pc memory much and make page bulky and slow.

In any case though, I mean if you try to go and play on traditional based casinos, you will see the same game, the same slots and everything, but you can't say that the owner of the casinos just make a bad copy of others isn't it?

So yeah, I also don't see the logic behind the OP, maybe it's online, but still, anyone can make a copy of some successful casino but it doesn't mean that they created it hastily or something. And that is the nature of the competition, same slot providers so it depends on just how you are going to promote and be ahead.
617  Economy / Economics / Re: How do you work toward hodling bitcoin? on: January 07, 2024, 11:07:16 AM
earn through altcoin and save it to bitcoin, this is most feasible way so far for me, might differ for other people but this way easily double your long term profit.
also, this way you are not worrying about selling the bitcoin since it acts like your investment you can be waiting for as long as it can to get the most of the bullish market, therefore would work out so well for your long term investment.
i believe there are many people that are also doing the same trading in altcoin, doing some airdrop and save the final result in bitcoin, but some people might not favour it because the volatility of bitcoin that sometime indeed affect the overall situation of our portfolio but then again if our vision from the start is to hold it until it reaches the all time high we aren't gonna be fazed by such thing instead we just continue to hold it for even longer term.

I think I have done this strategy before, I have an altcoin that really goes off and I was lucky to hold then. But I sold everything in 2018 before the collapse around March and subsequent bear market and put that into BTC and I'm so happy that I made that decision and just HODL on it and sell everything when necessary.

But I think majority here might have been started to really accumulate Bitcoin in the beginning and a hard nitty and grind like every week to buy and do DCA. But in the end, it's up to our strategy and how it fits our budget. The most important thing is that you have that mental toughness to stick to your goal of accumulating bitcoin as much as you can and sell them on top.

i think the average gambler has a character like that when they gamble for the first time, because i have also experienced something like that where i gambled quite recklessly and was impatient to win big. it was only some time after i started gambling that i was able to control this, although at times i also took bigger risks, but not as often as when i first started gambling.

I'm not sure if this is a one time first time or if this is something that how the OP describe, it's always like this to the individual that he describe it. However, it's ironic isn't it, I mean you are not known to be a gambler and has save money, but then again, it's a complete personality when he started to gamble.

i think it's not an alter ego, but more just our natural nature, because maybe people can appear relaxed and calm on the outside, but when they gamble they forget to control themselves and this leads to them showing an impatient and aggressive attitude.

It's also hard to describe this kind of personality, because of the contradiction. However, this could be common to some gamblers? As for me, I'm not into like this, I just have money for gambling, and play what I can afford to lose and not have this kind of attitude or persona.

He as touted to be really big, Ortiz name has been when he has a 147 lbs, but it seems that he has move on to super welterweight already as he might have issues making the welterweight. I do agree that he has to go to a lot as a boxer, it's probably his luck or something that he isn't making a progress yet and due to injuries he suffered.

I think this is really a one-sided fight Vergil Ortiz Jr. is younger than Fredrick Lawson so he is still a progressing fighter with his technique and skills for sure Vergil Ortiz Jr. may have a much chance of winning this fight, while Fredrick Lawson doesn't have a great record but for sure Ortiz doesn't want to underestimate Fredrick Lawson as he still has the punching power needed to takedown Ortiz Jr.


Time for Davies to get his name in the discussion for the 140 lbs and US fans to see how good this British boxer is. Yeah, it seems that Romero is still injured, but nevertheless, he can't avoid the winner of this fight for his belt. And for me, Romero is the weakest amongst the 140 lbs champion, so he has to prove us that he is for real and that his belt is not just gifted to him.

If Ohara Davies wins this Rolly Rolando Romero will have a difficult time getting his belt against Ohara Davies as his opponent Ismael Barroso for sure is a fighting time bomb, Ismael Barroso needs to retire but he has the heart of a warrior for sure he keeps on fighting despite his age and he isn't moving the same and faster anymore, for me this fight is really one-sided and Ohara Davies has a huge chance in winning this fight,

We can't really say if this is one sided though, Ortiz has been out in the ring for years if I'm not mistaken. So there could be ring rust early and we don't know if he can overcome it. Remember that he also has career life threatening health issues, so mentally he could be affected for all we all.

The name of Davies keeps popping up in the 140 lbs, and I as I have said, we need to see him or at least he US fans if he is really that good or only hype as he mostly fight in British soil. So if he win this impressively, maybe he will be the mandatory for Rolly Romero.

Edit: So much for this, Ortiz beat and ended his 17 month layoff with a 1st round victory over Fredrick Lawson. Davies hype is over as he was knockout as well in the 1st round by Barroso. So it might be a rematch between Barroso and Romero.

This thread is inspired by the thread created by sportsbet.io about a lucky bettor who won $42 million on a $50 spin.

So let's discuss. This kind of win can be compelete considered based on luck, and the winner is so lucky that he hit the Jackpot. However, since the goal here is $42 million and you can only win that if you would bet $50 for one spin. So, do you have the courage to do that?

Why not? it's a big risk and as gamblers we are willing to take that huge jump and who knows we could be the one who is going to win that jackpot and it so happen to this person. And that is the very definition of gambling, take huge odds pretty much stack against us and yet we are willing to take that and in the win, we can say that we beat that odds.

Maybe $50 is too huge for others, including myself, but if you think about it, we have been gambling for many years and could be losing more than $50 at one sitting or in one night. So why not take this risk and see how your luck is.
