You have joined there for money and they are paying you for your contents. When in a community the concept of give and take inspires by financial gain then we are not going to see a real community.

That forum is fundamentally broken. The culture they are building will be limited to only pretending. Users will pretend that they care and the admin will pretend that he has a community.

I am really not sure what their motive is but I hope it's not to give a false impression that they have a strong community.

~snip~
Been seeing you from long time in the forum and making constant posts. Not going to say that they are very highly constructive which is not mandatory by the way. However just wanted to lift your rank up and hence sent 13 merits on your way.

I hope we will see better nemo :-D

Enjoy your day bud.

then there are a set of people post unrealistic things will bitcoin will cross $50k if it pumps by few hundred dollars,

When Bitcoin price was under a dollar or even a $100 then when someone said bitcoin may reach to $20k, this was unrealistic too. When something has not happen yet is always not real but that does not mean it is not going to happen.

Not sure if I am making sense here.

Anyway, Bitcoin can reach the $50k mark very soon and possibly after the next halving or in the next few years. It's supply and demand.

PS: Those FUD people and those optimistic people are always around us.

They do have a fair share of experienced players (at least as far as T20/ODI format is concerned). The Afghan national team is 100% composed of professionals (unlike the case they had a few years back), and many of the players do play franchise T20 cricket abroad (Rashid Khan, Mujib ur Rahman, Zahir Khan, Hazratullah Zazai, Najibullah Zadran.etc).

Rashid Khan may be just 21 years old, but he already has 71 ODIs to his name. Mohammad Nabi has played in a total of 124 ODIs and the respective figures for Asghar Afghan and Gulbadin Naib stands at 111 and 65 respectively. So they have a lot of experience in the squad. And that is why it is even more surprising to see them losing their cool under tough situations.
You were talking about individual's experience but that's not what I meant.

Winning is a habit. If you bring worlds best players in a team and if the team does not have the mindset that they can win from any situation then ultimately they will lose.

It's the same here for Afghanistan. They need to have this habit and the physiological strength that they can beat any team in T20. As a unit of course.

I have seen the option to  bet on that link but i am afraid these are difficult option to guess. Why did not  include the simple and basic options like

-Toss Won by
-Match Won by

 These two are the basic stats and should be included in all the MutiBets.  What do other think about this ?
Appreciate your inquiry in here instead of the event topic.

Match won goes very predictable when it comes to match like Ind vs Ban or Afghanistan vs WI but yes for close opponents I will have it.
About the Toss, I will add this instead of the top bowler in the match. Fact is there are so many markets to think of.

Feel free to suggest me markets those could be very interesting to add.

Cheers,

Hmm... I would partially agree. However, in T20 the weaker teams have a larger chance of committing an upset. For example, England was beaten by the Netherlands twice in this format, and such a result would be unthinkable if they were playing the test format. I believe that the chances of the weaker team is inversely proportional to the duration of the game.
Yeah, you were right about the short format. Thanks for bringing it. It was out of my mind when I was making my last post in here.

That said, how many teams are out there, who could give good competition to the current Indian side? South Africa is currently ranked 4th in the ICC Test Rankings (above Australia) and we saw how they fared against India. There is something seriously wrong with the sport, if a 4th ranked team can't compete against the first ranked side in a meaningful way.
Well this ICC ranking is not very practical. I think in T20, they have Pakistan at the top but look how embarrassing they are in their recent performance in T20.

May be ICC needs to have a practical ranking system than the current one they have. I have no idea how to though.

Kohli could have given Jadeja the opportunity to score his century rather than declaring soon as if he has some other work to do and looking at his urgency he might try to finish the Bangladesh innings today itself.
Honestly speaking I have not watched any single ball from this match. How many overs did India played today before they declared?

Edit:
This match is over and the next one will probably finish in the same manner. Once Bumrah returns, the Indian team will probably be unbeatable in tests for a longer duration.
I have predicted the result long ago with the margin of the result :-P

India will win by an innings and 100+ runs in this match.

What if spend a huge amount of BTC just to congest transactions just to make fun of it.
I think it's possible mostly if the attacker holds large amount of BTC
I think it's possible but this will have a cost. Imagine if this 85MB (yesterday it was) were sent using 100Sat/byte fees then the one was sending would make the miners rice and rest of us either would have to wait until these 85MB clears up or pay higher fees than that to get quick confirmation.

Not sure which hack you are talking about and the site. If you are seeing this wrong address then do not initiate an withdrawal. Possibly the hacker wants you to send your withdrawal in the address that is always showing in your side.

Stay in touch with their updates and when you will see it's safe and not changing then initiate the withdrawal.

Also, I am confused about the max stake.

You mentioned that 'Max unit allocated for the match' : 25 while 'Max unit stake' : 10. If I were to bet with 10 units on 7 selections and win, I would win 200 units which is more than 25 units. Can you clarify?
I am responding here since on the topic we want to avoid discussions.

So here:
Bet unit: 0.0001 BTC = 1 Unit
In other words 1 Unit bet means you are placing a bet of 0.0001 BTC
Now if you bet 10 units then your stake will be 0.0001 BTC * 10 = 0.001 BTC

If you win
- Select 3 from 4 option: Win 5x = 5*0.001 = 0.005 BTC
- Select 5 from 7 option: Win 10x = 10*0.001 = 0.01 BTC
- Select 7 : Win 20x = 20*0.001 = 0.02 BTC
All these will come from a 10 unit bet.

The max for this event is 25 unit. So let's say you got 10 units and someone else got 5 units and another one got 5 unit then total unit gone will be 20 units. If someone else wants to get 6 units then they can not coz only we will have left 5 units.

So, the actual budget for this event we can get from the total number of unit counts and if this is for 7 selection then:
25*0.0001 (per unit cost) = 0.0025 BTC
Which means 0.0025 BTC * 20 (winning multiplier for 7 selections) = 0.05 BTC

I hope I was able to give an explanations here.

This looks great Royse except for the compulsory selection which is quite difficult to predict. If there were no compulsory selections, this multibet would be a better proposition.
Thanks for the feedback. You know I am experimenting. So let it be like this, in the next one I will avoid such market to see the response.

There is no doubt that the Afghanistan players are very talented. But they are losing a lot of the matches that they should be winning. They don't have the capability to win close matches. Even in many matches where they had the advantage, they ended up on the losing side. Either they allowed the pressure on the opposition to wean away, or they underwent sudden collapse.
Here it comes the experience. An experience team will not lose many from this situation. And it really takes a long time to gather experience. May be years from now we will see team like Afghanistan will be able to win matches from this kind of close calls.

I found the match boring and watched only a few overs today. Matches such as this one are the reason why people are losing interest in test cricket.
Well give me a match between Aus vs Eng or Eng vs India or India vs Aus, I will watch most of the balls. Test cricket are still the real cricket but it really has to be with same strength.

When the strength has significant difference then we will see this kind of boring match no matter if this is Test, ODI or T20.
6533  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Mempool Attack? on: November 15, 2019, 05:14:58 PM
Is this a possible Mempool attack with small TX.

Maybe because of Bitcoin SV "Independance day"

https://btc.com/stats/unconfirmed-tx

How much size is possible? Does this matter in any way even if 400 or 500 MB?


What Bitcoin SV "Independance day"?

It looks like this now:


https://jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/#0,2d

And I think there are nothing to be worried. I had two tx with 5 sat/byte and both got confirmed in less than two hours it I am not wrong.

Edit:
Just now in less than 10 minutes I had another tx got confirmed which had only 4.5 sat/byte fees.
6534  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: November 15, 2019, 04:29:58 PM
India has a lead of 343 runs already and today is just 2nd day of play . I think they would take a lead of around 400 and will declare their innings and Bangladesh might lose this game by inning and some runs it seems now as India has posted big lead already .

You need to remember that India has lost six wickets as well. They would like to get to a lead of 400 or even 450. But it needs to be seen for how long Umesh Yadav will be able to give company to Ravindra Jadeja. Once either of these two gets out, it is going to be tough. Ashiwn can bat a bit, but both Ishant Sharma and Mohammad Shami are real tailenders.

This is what I was predicting before or after the tea today:

India will win by an innings and 100+ runs in this match.

And this 343 lead is enough to have this winning margin. I know Kohli knows the best but if I were to lead the team then I would ask the Bangladesh team to bat from the morning. Early morning the bowlers will have very good advantage and this should be enough to damage the Bangladeshi top order.

Please do not make this topic a discussion topic. For discussions please post in this thread: 🏏🏏 Mutual betting & MutiBet IN SAME MATCH discussion & active Markets 🏆
I have never seen any bookie to offer Multibet in the same match. It's too risky for them. As a gambler I felt there is this gap in the industry.
