So we have one day left to start the ICC World Test Championship. England is hosting the test between them and Australia and then we will see Sri Lanka vs New Zealand series which will be hosted by Sri Lanka. After that we have West Indies vs India host nation is possibly West Indies.

This will be interesting. The team forms will not be the same in the two long year period of time.

For example West Indies vs India. Anyone can bet that India will win but India in recent time and India after one year may not be the same. May be after one and half year we will see a different West Indies and result will start to change.

Same can be said about Sri Lanka vs New Zealand. The current New Zealand team looks very good but after a year or a year and half may be we will not see a better New Zealand team than Sri Lanka.
You have given good elaboration of test matches. All the teams included in this test match series are good and Excellency teams but only good and expert team will win at the end. I like Pakistan the most as they play really good and when India comes at  cross then match become really interesting. England and Sri Lanka both are good teams too.

Well sometimes I buy some tickets on the dice sites I am playing but I am not that big fan of lottery. Changes are mostly very small to win but on the other hand if you win, it's mostly big. But for now just some tickets for fun.
It is good if you are buying tickets with money for lottery but it don’t allow myself to spend my bitcoin to buy any ticket as  I am fully satisfied with my investment in bitcoin I know it will certainly increase in price and it will make mg future good but in case of lottery earning will be all depending on luck.

Even on poker there won't be any assured win while we have lot of experience about playing that game for years.
You can apply what you have experienced with poker but it won't guarantee you a win. You can learn on how to bluff and when to fold but it's just like that but it won't be 100% of winning.

Nope but at least poker also needs some skills so in the end you can get better if you work hard on it. For slots you get press that button as much as you like, but harder work will never let you win more on that.
Yes for sure each and ever game has to work hard to learn. Every game has some rules that gambler will have to learn so this is the reason why if you are playing poker you will have to put your effort to win. To get something you will have to bear pain that’s why better enjoy learning about games and enhance your knowledge.
624  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Preferred crypto betting site ? on: July 28, 2019, 09:32:07 AM
I suggest 777coin ofcourse.
It can accept some altcoins too, it's established and known a long time now.
You can create a profile without KYC and they also offer instant withdrawal, use my signature if you want and it'll help me too!
Bitcoin talk gambling site is the best because it gives us knowledge and help us to gamble profitably. In gambling there  are allot of sites but we only will have to choose well trust and good website. But as you have to choose bitcointalk.org it is the best site for gambling according to me.
625  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Unforgettable Gambling Stories... on: July 28, 2019, 08:16:18 AM
My unforgettable gambling story goes like this: I once played a poker game and won 1300$ and then went all in again with additional 200$, this time around, I lost big time. That was last year November. Lesson learnt from this is to avoid greed in gambling.

You are very lucky to win $1300 in a poker game because not all of the poker player can win those amount of money. Although right now, you are lost, I think you can get another big win someday but you should aware not to use too much money in a poker game or other gambling games. I agree that we need to avoid greed in gambling because we will lose more and more money.
Beginners luck is a bad thing because if we lost earlier we may not get addicted to it but once we made money then keep losing will result in chasing and more and more money will be lost.Anyway we can try if we can afford the money or we have to accept it and move on to lead our life.
For me gambling is not addiction it is just a way to make money. Those who gets serious and make it an Egoistic issue will face bad time as I think if you consider yourself not suitable for gambling you can quit and again learn about gambling I am sure at second try you will win with your additional abilities.
626  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why the martingale system sucks! (doubling down on losses) on: July 27, 2019, 07:57:39 AM
It seems to me that even today, many people using the browser are looking for opportunities to win gambling.  But why look so far and risk your own money if we already have everything on bitcointalk.  Best of all, this particular forum provides a sufficiently large amount of information for a gambler.
I think the problem is, not everyone that comes on this forum are here to learn. I think some people just come to play around if there’s anything like that because, I have seen it on so many occasions where gamblers have been advised against the use of some strategies, also there are times gamblers are been warned of visiting some sites and its always surprising to see that some gamblers will still fall into this trap and come back to complain.

Truth be told, Bitcoin forum has really helped a lot of gamblers like me in differentiating between wrong and right. Also, it was one of the topics I read here sometimes ago I got to learn that martingale strategy isn’t for small gamblers and since then I never used it.
Double down your winning is good while you invest and there are some chances of lose you can double your investment but some people says it has allot of risk because if there are chances to win at the same time there are few chances for the game to change at once so it can cause lose but if the gambler has faith and confidence in his skills he can overcome your lose.
627  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What's the *easiest* profitable betting strategy? on: July 27, 2019, 07:07:55 AM
I thought of it before to gamble on sports betting site and bet only on those with good odds for higher chance of winning, but there are cases when even if the odds are good, your enemy is bad luck or an upset. Look at the case of Manny and Thurman, Manny is the underdog at first, then tables turned when the fight draws near.
Exactly mate that’s what happened,at first the majority and Odds highly favored Thurman and I also thought it will remain not until the fight go near when the table turns and Pacman become the new favorite


For me it is the the sports bet because most of the times I know the team who is playing the matches who is stronger and what are the probabilities of the them winning or losing. Though it may not always go correct but better than me gambling in some other games.
Yeah Sportsbet is one good place to put betting because they are one of the best in regards to Odd providing site.
Just keep that game simple and bet as much as you can afford. There is no winning strategy in the gambling but profit can be managed to get a few gamble with the responsibility of not losing your money.
Practically right lol.nice and plain advice 😂
Well surely it is good idea before getting in gambling it is very important to know how much you can afford to lose how much able you are to win. While getting in gambling make sure you are fair and expert with your choose games. Best game among all is to bet with different teams and games to bet with a team check their pervious history as well.
628  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Pacquiao Vs Mayweather 2 on: July 27, 2019, 06:11:44 AM
And when did Mayweather  became a monster?

He is a monster in running around not engaging toe to toe with Manny, he just want to win in scoring and has no plans of entertaining the fans.
Thurman is a real monster than him, he was not afraid to face a bigger monsters.

Honestly, half of me wants a rematch but the other half says no way since I know what to expect already.

That's what he does all the time running and throw some few punches if the fight reached the last round again then we can say he will win the fight because Floyd is the boss on Las Vegas. Pacquiao needs to knock him out this time so he cannot let the Judge take advantage of the decision.
Till the end I the game we cannot say who will win and who will lose but we only enjoy the game. Those who bet on game use to make different predictions but only fair team will win at the end. I personally never make or take any pre planned division of money while team wins I invest as to said anyone can beat the other.
629  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Impossibility of a gambling system (Why methods don't work) on: July 26, 2019, 02:14:51 PM
And that is why martingale is not really effective, as the longer you play with this system the odds grow overtime. If you employ strategy and have successes in the beginning, before get out and exit while you can and don't feel confident that you have caught the 'holy grail' of strategies. Control is the key is you wanted to win using martingale (or any variations of it).


Yeah great advise and strategy mate self control and self discipline is the key to get win and avoid loses because greedy is the way to get more loses. Enjoy to play the games for just for fun.
This is not the reality mate I think a gambler would do the same thing if once he lose something in gambling mistakes are our teacher if we will avoid mistakes it will improve our profit but making mistakes and learning from it is best strategy. For me the only gambling method which works is to learn as much as you can and gather knowledge.
630  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: KYC Process (Sportsbook) on: July 26, 2019, 01:05:12 PM
How is the KYC Process if you deposit with Bitcoin.

- ID
- Utility Bill

what else? Proof of Deposit, example Screenshot of your Wallet? Any other torture?
Send your sefie and do the skype interview, those are the shit things about KYC and if you have a low cameraphone for sure you’ll get denied and your information are no longer safe. The worst thing about KYC is when they ask you to submit your private keys, that means its a scam.

I remember my friend who's been also asked for a private key for the same process as yours. Gladly he didnt give it and he's alert regarding this matter. Just dont give your private keys or passwords when you fill up your KYC .
Yes we need to be secure and to stay  careful about our gambling once you share about your private key it will harm your safety. There are scammers who if once get your private key they will make plan to hack your wallet and will steal your all coins. Don’t get in unknown websites other side it is harmful.
631  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are some things all gambling websites/apps/games should have? on: July 26, 2019, 10:37:25 AM
Provably Fair is in top list, no one would play a game if isn't fair at all for sure. There should be at least some features that would be pausing the to play in streaks, like for example a chatting box, for them to mingle with other players and share their ideas on current trends and strategies of the game. I remember in some poker game, I could send flowers and drinks for other players at the table and get their attention to talk to me.
Yeah you  are right all these things are good to have in a site we use for gambling. When you want to use a website you must want to know allot of things like about the fairness of the site and the real investment. Easy deposits and fair transactions. It will be much better to get some old experience of the gamblers which can help us know gambling tips.
632  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sportsbetting odds, which do you prefer? on: July 26, 2019, 10:03:11 AM
Martingale is just a strategy that needs pure luck or a higher probability to win in any gambling games.
It doesn't need pure luck, gambler use the martingale strategy because they don't believe in pure luck, they likely want to make sure they will win all the time using this risky gambling method.



There has been enough discussion on martingale strategy and it has been concluded by most people that martingale strategy is of no use. The experienced gamblers never use the martingale strategy because of its high risk and low reward.
Martingale is a policy that not applicable for each game when you lose some you will invest more to recover the lose but more and more investment will help you to recover. It is good to bet in sports which are profitable and good to win a game. According to me getting in cricket is one of best betting game.
633  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: July 26, 2019, 09:21:56 AM

Something unpredictable just happened in the cricket. A world champion few days back has got all out in the 1st inning within 1st session itself and that too from the Ireland who did not even qualify for the World Cup. Well this is something unexpected and what a game of cricket it has being from Ireland.

True but you must have to count the fact that both are two different formats of cricket. For ODI, their batting line-up definitely the best one at the moment but for a test match, I guess it's not enough. Anyway, 85 is an accident though. They will recover in the upcoming innings.
Match has always been so different in each inning you will have to give your best for wining. March prediction has always been difficult one. In this world cup all teams had preformed well. Now a day there are T20 matches all teams looks so active and concerned. I am sure in this match India and Newziland are good teams to perform.
634  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Unforgettable Gambling Stories... on: July 26, 2019, 08:46:48 AM
I will tell a story that happened 4 years ago.

Its a one lucky day for me that I cant forget. My sister and I went to the mall to buy costume that she will use for their christmas party. While she's busy on choosing what to buy I decided to go to the 3rd floor of the mall and play in arcade.

Then I saw this lottery (keno lotto) where you can see the result for each round every 10 minutes. Since the ticket cost is cheap I tried my luck. I won $560, got 8 numbers out of 9. I only missed 1 number to hit the jackpot of $8k. But still its a big blessing because I only spent $3 for tickets.
This is really very nice to see people earning such huge amount for gambling in case of buying lottery we actually depend on luck and this is all luck based game. In gaming I prefer learning because only learning gives me good profit. I personally waiting for this day when I will feel I can win I will gamble.
635  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: KYC and the $5 hammer on: July 25, 2019, 11:30:17 PM
A theme  topic, whatever often talked about on this forum, is the $5 hammer attack.
Many people suggest to keep your bitcoin holdings secret, thus preserving the anonymity of bitcoin to a certain degree.
But then you get sportsbooks asking for photos and passports, and god only knows what else.
If a sportsbook wants all this, I respectly suggest they change to fiat.
Agree with this, because some people use crypto to gamble is to make sure they still anonym, if ask people to do some KYC in crypto gambling site, it will not different with gambling site that use fiat.
Crypto is anonymous  it is the reason why people are not agree to share KYC if they will share it could consider to be dangerous for the investors and their investment. In fiat people use to share their KYC as they feel safe about it but I think if they will share KYC in crypto even then it is not issue as why would the casino share someone else's identity.
636  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Celebrities you probably don't know were(are) aggressive gamblers on: July 24, 2019, 01:24:03 PM
Not a surprising list to be honest, gambling often becomes a pass-time for the wealthy. However, like most things the thrill of the game can corrupt and turn even celebrities into puppets.

That being said, most of these can afford to lose a fair whack without it affecting their life circumstances.
Yeah right mate, gambling is for every one and if our celebrities are willing to gamble it’s good news because it will increase the popularity of gambling in the world. I think we should find more celebrities to tell them about gambling. It is open way of earning money anyone can use it, some use gaming to earn money some to become famous and some for time pass
637  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you buy lottery online in bitcoin payment? on: July 24, 2019, 12:48:05 PM
No way, because if the 0.002 BTC that I spend today ends up being worth $100 next week, next month or next year, I'd be very upset.

0.002 btc will be worth if bitcoin price increases because we don't know how higher bitcoin price can reach. I think that is why some of us prefer to buy lottery with altcoin because they can use bitcoin to purchase altcoin and I am sure that they will get a huge amount. But who knows, by buying the lottery, we can get lucky so we can win some money Grin
You should expect for gain though keeping in mind the reasons why should Bitcoin gain value till May 2020. But isn’t it a risky investment to use your Bitcoin and buy some lottery ticket? The odds or winning when it comes to lottery are very low and your probability of making the money is one out of 175m according to statistics of previous lotteries.
Yes bitcoin is good investment and it does not have any risk to hold. If you buy bitcoin you will be able to earn money as you will be certain about your money that you are going to get it back. But gambling has 50 percent chances to win only because of luck if you are  not lucky you can lose so don’t use bitcoin try to gamble with fiat only.
638  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does hard work in gambling count? on: July 24, 2019, 12:46:24 PM
I am curious to know if someone continually invested a lot of time in studying a game involved in gambling, further if he had played the game a lot to understand the intricacies involved, then can we call him an expert in that gambling game? If we do call him an expert then we clearly differentiate his experience and expertise from that of a novice. This clearly shows that the person is capable of winning more as an expert than the novice who really does not have the in-depth understanding of the play.

This brings us to an interesting question if hard work in gambling really pays off? If one puts in a lot of efforts to understand a game involved in gambling, does it mean that all his time has gone down the drain? Certainly no. If gambling were simply a blind guess or a wild shot then even years of studying it makes it useless because one is simply guessing the outcome blindly. But such is not the scenario with gambling in reality. What makes hard work count in gambling?

This further sets off the question of addiction in gambling. Work can also be an addiction for many. But here the addiction could be for perfecting the game and the art of playing. This kind of addiction is to struggle every time for success by proper calculation and review. However, addiction can also be due to pure greed of winning with no clear knowledge of the game. If hard work counts, then we may actually find a solution for a healthier addiction towards success in gambling.

Its not because the player is a gambling experts, He can always win at every games, Of course they can still face loss because nobody
is perfect, not all the time luck will always there for every gambler of course not.

Agree, even professional gamblers can’t win all the time, I think they are considered experts because they can remain calm and positive at gambling and that they can come up with better strategies compared to those who are too emotional in gambling.
you are right it is very important to work hard because without hard work no one ever got reward. So I consider this hard work one of the important rule to get success in gambling. We will have to struggle and gain knowledge about  a game in case of gambling only luck is not good to rely on but hard work and luck combines together to make a gambler win.
639  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Can we ever have altcoin season again. on: July 21, 2019, 05:02:39 AM
Well it really depends
Things are different in 2019 and 2017

Most people invest blindly during 2017 regardless if the project is genuine or fake
This is why Alts season occur because anything and everything is pumped hard

While people are getting smarter now, i would say good alts would pump
The season might come but might take some time here
Yes it has been happening since long price use to rise and fall and this is volatile market movement when more people will but crypto so the price will itself get high. So as we know since long price use to change now again it will change and market will come to the track we only need to have patience and wait.

Experience is one of the challenges that becomes a benchmark to make us avoid the same mistakes. from this experience we will be motivated to get better from previous mistakes. Well, it cannot be denied that all the characteristics of people are not the same
You are right mistakes  teaches us many things that we can become expert with learning from mistakes but if we will only keep doing mistakes and will not learn from it then all this is totally useless. Better learn as much as you are spending time in crypto as being new you surely will make some mistakes but with knowledge you can avoid it all.
