To be honest, it is difficult to predict which type of surfaces will be prepared by the New Zealand curators. But given the strength of the Indian batting lineup, it will be suicidal for them to prepare surfaces that support the batsmen. The problem here is that the Indian bowlers such as Sharma and Shami are experts in picking up wickets in flat surfaces, while the New Zealand bowlers lack that capability.
A few days to go to see whether they will come up with a flat wicket or a green pitch, i am expecting them to come up with a pitch retaining small grass that could help anyone bowling first but i do not see the pitch deteriorating in the final two days, interesting to see whether India will include a spinner or they will go all out fast bowling line up as they have the potent bowlers.

Considering that New Zealand batsmen are vulnerable to spin bowling, I would expect the Indians to include at least one spinner (in addition to Jadeja). They have very good pace bowlers such as Shami and Sharma, but at home the New Zealand batsmen will be more comfortable against the pace and seam movement of the Indian bowlers. I would go for a mix of pace and spin rather than an all pace attack.

I think they will have two pacer and two spinner for the first test. Spinners are very effective in test cricket and Newzealand batsmen are not good with spin balling. Though I am not sure who they will select for the first match.

What you are thinking about PSL it is going to be start February 20 onwards in Pakistan. How pakistan can they gives security for foreign players? and Pakistan peoples are going give good responses to PSL? Please share your thoughts here.

Last time when Bangladesh visited Pakistan they closed the whole area near the stadium. A group of intelligence and security officials was accompanying the Bangladesh team. They provided the security of the highest level as if the head of any country was traveling.

They are trying there level best. I am sure they will do the same this time also. PSL is popular in Pakistan but it still needs more exposure for other cricketing countries to follow.

Before the end of first quater this year the Fiat value of Ethereum should touch a minimum of $500 to a maximum of 1k. I am very bullish about Ethereum this year. There are big news awaited this year from the team and the market has been responding positively to it.

It only takes one of the big teams to tour Pakistan and the other big teams may follow. Now that South Africa has agreed to tour Pakistan, I think its only a matter of time before we see Australia, England and New Zealand tour Pakistan. Seeing India tour Pakistan is a dream as I can't see this happening anytime soon but we can hope it happens one day.

Political climate is not conductive for an Indian tour of Pakistan. However, I would love to watch the Indian team touring Afghanistan. Till now, none of the test playing nations have toured that country. But the security situation is getting normalized and I hope Indians will agree to tour their neighbors. Afghanistan is regarded as one of the allies of India and therefore the chances are brighter.

I do not think Indian team will agree to tour Afghanistan. There are still many security issue in that country. I am sure they will ask Afganistan to visit India. Being allies doesnot mean the Indian board does not think about the security of its players first.

If the board agress also, most of the Indian star player will not play.

We all read threads where people say that it is impossible to win against the house because the edge that is always against a gambler.

But often when I am playing dice and I see chat and view stats of some gamblers there are actually some profiles that show profits while some show loss so my question is, do people actually make profits from dice or the stats are misleading or something?

And I am talking about regular gamblers who I mean are active in chat almost daily so it's not like they made profit once and stopped gambling, they are active and gamble almost every day so how some guys are managing profits while others are failing?

Self-moderation policy:
When you talk on-topic, we are all fine to go. May lock after considerable discussion. Thanks for understanding.

I have won few times but, the ratio to win and lose will always be 5:1. Where if I have lost 5 times I have also won 1 time. It also does not mean it happens every day, the ratio does change on some odd day but overall the house always wins.

Gambling can only be seeing as a fun only when you are playing the game with not your real money. This just happened to me recently when I was playing gambling on a particular gambling site, at the initial stage when I was using the airdrop they gave me it was really fun and I was making it but when I deposited my on money and started playing gambling it was not fun anymore because I was losing my real money.

Not really.

Plenty of people have fun when gambling with real money, the thrill comes as part of risk.

There is no risk when you're gambling with fake money.

Even if you lose your money it can still be considered fun if you're in it for the thrill and suspense, rather than the profit.

If you want to make huge profits, play the lottery.

Betting with fake money cannot be termed as gambling. Fake money does not have value, so you would never understand the pleasure of winning and the pain of losing.

Gambling is high risk game, you are playing because you are aware of the consequence. You cannot blame anyone if you lose and you cannot enjoy with everyone if you win. It is highly addictive but it should not be your life.

Cryptocurrency market is known for its volatility and that is one of main reason why Bitcoin has reached such a price point. Investing in Bitcoin is always risky. I am sure everyone knows that here. How to convert 0.5BTC to 1BTC? For that there are many ways. It depends on you which method you would like to implement.

If you think your method is more reliable and you done ample amount of research then carry on. As per me I will never do it in that manner.

If you really got banned for "winning too much" then how come they didn't ban me when I turned 0.005 BTC to 0.1 BTC?

Betroar is not a scam for those who are playing there genuinely and not try to scam the website. I have till now earned 0.004 BTC , half of it comes from founders faucet offer and the other comes from my refferal commission. They have not blocked me and have always approved my withdrawal request with in. 24 hours.
6289  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: CHAINLINK ,BAT future and price predictions??? on: February 16, 2020, 10:39:00 AM
chainlink is a good project that has many partners and the price of chainlink continues to increase from 2019 until now maybe the price will increase continuously in the following year, following the project continues to grow, maybe the price of chainlink can reach 5-8 $ in the next 2 years

It has already reached $4 in this present market condition and you are still expecting it to only grow to $8 max in the next two years. I am confused how did you come to that conclusion. In my opinion it will reach between $50 to $100 in the next two years.

It is a great project and you can expect a good profit if you HODL it by the end of this year.

I don't know if you guys have heard about this:

Investigating stolen funds on Mainnet

Quote

Currently the Coordinator is halted until further notice to investigate reported issues with stolen funds. We ask you to keep the Trinity wallet closed for now until further notice.



Official statement can be found here: https://status.iota.org/

This will have serious implications on IOTA future. This will simply ruin the trust that investors had on this project and will significantly reduce its popularity. This simply shows how centralized this  cryptocurrency is. I am sure many of its existing holders will now leave it as soon as possible.

Metamask surpassed 1million users, as the Ethereum market price pump to 300$ and the market cap is back to 30million $.

The ethereum transactions was double from 400,000 to 800,000 transactions a day.




Reference:
https://www.trustnodes.com/2020/02/14/metamask-reaches-one-million-users

Metamask is an incredible application, it has one of the simplest and easy to understand interface. What makes it different from other wallets is its ability to get attached as an extension on multiple browser that are build on chromium.

Good to know: You can now use metamask on microsoft edge chromium. It is very fast than chrome and other browsers in its league and does block ads.

For me its very balanced side as they have good batsmen in middle order and with Bumrah now pace attack is also looking very balanced even Ishant Sharma is out so this could be very good series for these two teams with India is favourite but still any body game as New Zealand is capable of doing surprises.
NZ has a great chance to win this test series since they are basically playing against an experimenting Indian side at present. Observed that Gill, Shaw and Mayank got dismissed early though I am expecting Mayank to perform really well.

If NZ can get the openers out quickly, they could most likely win the matches easily. On the other hand, it is good to see Shami and Bumrah in the squad(Happy to see that Thakur is not a part of the squad). It will be interesting to see if India can continue their test series winning streak.

Yes, with the experiment going on with the Indian side the chances are very high for Newzealand to win the test series. Although I feel that testing the newbies is important but an experienced opener with a newbie will not harm the team. Whatever the management has planned it for the good of Indian cricket.

Ripple affected very badly before few days and created amid tension on the Investors, there was lot of excitement as the third largest crypto will soar the market but unfortunately it stills seems to be in bear. However analyst say to hold till the end to the year to see a massive rally on XRP, hopefully XRP will surprise the investors in upcoming days.
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.newsbtc.com/2020/02/15/analysis-predicted-ripple-xrp-17-cent-bottom-200-rally/amp/

Ripple is an over hyped cryptocurrency. For the past three years I have been hearing that it will rally someday and that the price will reach more than $3. That day has yet come and those of you who are still HODLing it, please continue but do not expect and miracles from this cryptocurrency. Whenever you are able to book some profits, I would suggest you to book it and invest in other good projects.
6295  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What is a Crypto Wallet, Do You Need One? on: February 16, 2020, 07:02:06 AM
The first part about cryptocurrency wallet is explained well but you should have also added other things like there are two kinds of crypto wallets in the market. The first one is hot wallet like mobile wallet, exchange wallet or web wallets. The second one are known as cold wallet like desktop wallet and hardware wallet.

Apart from sending and receiving cryptocurrency you can also use these wallets to buy cryptocurrency, exchange them and also use them for staking

A lot of the users are commenting that South Africa could have won the match. In my opinion, England deserved it more as they played as a team. South Africa was heavily dependent on individual performances by a few players.
It is not about deserving it is about winning when the pressure is on the players and both these T20 were highly entertaining and the match lasted till the end and South Africa and England have one win each and leveled the series and tomorrow we have another match and hopefully it will be another entertaining encounter, not having the confidence to wage a bet but i am expecting England to win the match and the series.

If you can handle the pressure you can win close matches. This is the main reason for England winning over the South Africans. T20 is a game of nerves if the team is calm and knows it's goal then it will win any game. I also feel England has more experience player than South Africa and that might be another reason for thier win.
6297  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Uptrend Broken on: February 16, 2020, 05:52:57 AM
I have no idea how did you you deduce the data to come to a pullback figure of 9k. I am  not sure what negative trend let to this conclusion. It would have been great if you had also attached the image of the analysis.

It is a short term market correction I think as after the fall the price of Bitcoin did go back to 10k and is now trading near that amount. There is a strong resistance at 10.4k level and there is a strong support at 9.8k level.

It is normal for the market to book some profit and that is what I assume is happening. I doubt the maket will go below 9.5k level. Therefore I clearly reject your theory.
6298  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Facts about bounties on: February 16, 2020, 05:21:27 AM
Some people think they will get 50$ or 100$ from per bounty. But when they don't get paid from a lot of bounties then they start saying that bounty won't pay anymore. But that is how this sector work. There will always be some projects that won't pay and there will always be some projects that pay way more than your imagination and that covers all the losses. So for bounty hunter stop listing to others and keep working. It's better to do something instead of sitting like a duck.

There are bounties that are still paying good amount according to the present market situation. I get paid nearly $50 every month from by signature campaign itself. It is just that you need to ring the right one and not apply to all. Signature campaign have always remained profitable. Leave all others and concentrate on only signature campaign.
6299  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is it correction time? Market down by 8% on: February 16, 2020, 03:56:13 AM
At the moment Bitcoin is above 10k now. The market is bounced back and is steady as compared to what it was few hours back. I think it was short selling and looking into the present situation it is normal. This not the first time that Bitcoin has gone below 10k. I also feel there is a strong resistance at 10.4k price for Bitcoin, if it breaks that price barrier than we can expect it to reach 11k. At moment the market are trading sideways.
6300  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which is easier, stop when you are winning or stop when you are losing? on: February 16, 2020, 03:51:48 AM
I like to know your opinion about the question because I believe every gambler has a different way of managing himself.

My answer to the question is I can easily stop when I am winning because I am afraid I might end up with nothing since I know to myself that I am not yet consistent enough to win in gambling, however, based on my experience, I can't easily stop when I am losing despite the fact that I already set up a limit to gamble in a certain day or a certain session.

Do we have the same attitude or not?

I have never looked into that aspect, although I generally stop after winning upto a certain amount. Sometimes I also do it when I am loosing continuously. I think it depends on the situation. You cannot guarantee how much you can win niether how much will you lose. I have set a target for both the situation and I bet according to that.
