Both of the fighters have their fans and that cannot be denied.

Before he fought Fury in the first match Wilder was considered as one of the best. After the draw result in the first fight (which many including myself believe Fury won), people started to think he was going to get found out in the re-match and he did. Even fans of Wilder can be his fans yet concede his will probably end up losing to Fury again.

It would be difficult to predict this match results. The main reason for this is both of the boxers are equally matched and anyone of them can win on a certain date. I think the one who will be more lucky on the day will surely win this match.

Nah, even individuals who have little knowledge of boxing will have a high chance of winning on bets on this one. Even the poll here clearly states that Fury had the upper hand on the rematch and personally i don't have difficulty on picking. On the other hand, it may change in favor of Wilder but that's very slim that s why online bookies will give you high return if you bet on Wilder.

But still that does not grantee that Wilder will lose or Fury will win. Upsets does happen and therefore some people will put money on Wilder and in case he wins, the ROI will be very high as compare to fury. Also if fury is 100% predict to win, you will get very low ROI.

Everyone knows that houses will win most of the time but still people are wagering and taking part in wagering competitions. People do get REKT but they still take risks because the winning amount is too much attractive.
And that's how effective they are.

We wager more for specific reasons and this is included with that reason. The other reason why we gamble more is when we feel that we've lost that much.

This makes us get more of it and this is a normal act for gamblers.

It is never a good move to go all in or wager more when you are losing more. Many people think that if they gamble more after losing, to recover their loses they will lose more. The best way is to stop the gambling and start it again on a fresh day with a fresh mind. This way you have more chances of winning.
You will never know how others feel when they do that.

We don't know that some were successful retrieving their losses but it's a fact that many losses more.

Only the losers who have lost their money in gambling knows the feeling of it and others cannot have the same pain. People wager more  to cover their loses because they can control their sad feelings and in return lose more money. There are no counselors for gambling who can guide on how to control in gambling.

The fight has been postponed, so why is this thread still open?

Also, the poll is completely unnecessary, it's quite clear that Fury has won by an absolute landslide, more votes will achieve nothing.

I suggest locking this thread until the fight is rescheduled.

I also suggest locking this thread there is a tentative date in November but that is still months away if the fight will push through the hype will begin in the month of September, all we can give on this thread are just speculation and updates for people to remember that the fight is a go,
I also participated in a similar poll like this and the results are all the same Fury will win unanimously.

November is too far away and i don't think we have anything more to discuss about this fight at the moment. The fight final date will only be confirmed seeing the world covid 19 situation at that particular time. We can't assume anything as of now.

6526  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slots are better than Dice. on: May 24, 2020, 04:47:24 AM
I think that slots are way better than dice because of their payout structure. Lets say you are hunting 99x in dice, in this hunt you will not get paid if you hit 98x. But in slots things are different and you will get paid for every hit though you are aiming for jackpot.
I know that most of the slots pay like 80-92% of what goes into slots but still if you compare it with dice (specially hit and run method) it is more profitable in long run (although in long run you will eventually loose in both games because of house edge)
I want you to ponder upon this and please tell me how much I am right in this line of reasoning. 

I play both slot and dice at different times. I feel both of them are good and it depends upon my mood which one to play. Dice games are more simpler and easy to play if you are a beginner. I remember when i first started gambling, i only used to play dice.
6527  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do online gamblers think about their privacy and anonymity? on: May 24, 2020, 04:37:19 AM
Yes for me anonymity is very important where especially in my country online gambling is banned and you could go to tail if you're found out gambling online.
That's why i use cryptocurrency gambling sites because it requires no personal data or KYC and any gambling site that requires it is a red flag for me.

Privacy is very important for most of us who are playing gambling and there are many reasons for this. You must have noticed that if anyone won a big amount they never come in front of us and tell us that they won a big amount because they do not want to disclose this information to anyone. We never know who won the jackpots and lotteries and all this stuff is anonymous.

So you mean that if trump wins the next election, the election will not be fair and trump will manipulate the result. I don't think it is easy to change the election results in USA and whoever wins the election, it will be fair.
I don't know that! but I didn't believe the Trump Administration, can you remember the "2016 campaign promises" I can't believe his words any more.

~
Do you think that those who elected for the trump in the past elections will again vote for him ?
In fact, I don't think they would make the same mistake of re-electing him if there was a fair election but look at the recent pool I can't figure it out how each time he gained very close result, who are behind on this!

Maybe the voters and fans of Trump are the ones who are sincere with him and they do not change the parties. Incipite of all the decision made by trump in all these years, they still love him and vote for him. That's the only reason that we see trump with good votes in all the surveys conducted.
6529  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Political Betting Around the World on: May 23, 2020, 11:37:17 AM
Now this one is better, I mean should be better than Sports Betting in my opinion. Because it not only let you bet your winning candidate, but it also give a thrill on what to expect will happen in the political landscape in your county for the next few years or decades. Why not we post our countries popular websites and platforms here so that everybody, especially the political aficionado in us will be able to visit and possibly bet. Unfortunately in our little corner of the world, I do not know why I cannot find anything about political betting when politics is a messy affair. Anyway hope you can share what you visit. 
I don't think many gambling sites will include political betting because elections include surveys and from those survey, you can bet who will likely win in the election if there are no surveys to mess the election results it's easy to integrate that to any gambling sites, most of these survey companies are accurate in their predictions.

The surveys won't tell you the exact results of the election and therefore some sites do offer betting on the political elections. You can visit freebitco.in which offer this type of betting on US presidential elections.

6530  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: US Presidential Election 2020 on: May 22, 2020, 06:56:19 PM
Despite the bad polls, Trump is still everyone's favorite, I don't know what kind of honey they found in Trump. I've been watching from the beginning the ruling party has always been ignored the pulling trend for presidential election. You can see that Donald Trump is standing at 2.10 where Joe Biden has managed to achieve 2.34. According to a survey by "RealClearPolitics", Biden is ahead by 5.1% on pool. Now it is a matter to be seen how neutral and fair the actual election will be!

So you mean that if trump wins the next election, the election will not be fair and trump will manipulate the result. I don't think it is easy to change the election results in USA and whoever wins the election, it will be fair.
Do you think that those who elected for the trump in the past elections will again vote for him ?
6531  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you pick slots? on: May 22, 2020, 06:14:57 PM
Hi guys,

There are thousands of slots in casinos from different developers. It is quite hard to choose …
 
How do you choose which one to play? By best-known developers, most popular, high RTP-s, min bets?
 
Cheers,
Karl


I will choose the most popular ones because these will the be the most trusted ones too. Winning or losing is a separate thing (based upon the luck factor) but by choosing the trusted casino, i am confident that i won't be scammed by them.
6532  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A new survey shows that UKs gambling addiction is getting worst day by day. on: May 22, 2020, 06:07:17 PM
This really hurts when you read what those people would be going through at this difficulty times. But also being said we all know that addition of anything is not good and when you addicted to gambling it really have many adverse effects of humans and their life and this is what is happening with them as well. Hope they can find a solution and able to quit this addiction as quick as possible.


Gambling addiction is worse these days becasue of people getting stuck in their homes and they have nothing to do. They play gambling all they long and due to this it is easy for them to get addicted. I hope once the lock down is lifted, people will get back to work and they will be less busy in gambling.
6533  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do online gamblers think about their privacy and anonymity? on: May 22, 2020, 05:44:48 AM
Majority of gambling sites are anonymous and they will only ask for KYC for verification, that is one of the advantages of playing online your information is confidential but if a gambler is going to play with huge amount he should make sure play with online gambling site that has a good reputation.

I play online gambling because i do not want to disclose my identity. Even if i perform the KYC, my freinds and family won't know that i am playing gambling online. This is totally different from gambling in physical casino where your friends can see you that you were the one who was gambling.
6534  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Underground Casinos Is it Happening? on: May 22, 2020, 05:35:51 AM
Casinos can't keep up with the current situation, they must make a profit even at this pandemic, do you think it's possible that some gambling casinos are already into underground casinos, where they only allow their old and trusted clients to play in a place that they provided, could be a mansion or a secluded building, but of course, they will guaranty all the necessary preactions to make their venue safe for their clients.


There's also a possibility that some governments will allow it because some casinos are being run by the government or they have a big cut in the revenues.
Do you think it's happening right now or do you know of one in your city?

You can call these  Underground Casinos as illegal casinos and they should not be allowed to run or be operational. If the government has banned and temporary closed all the physical casino keeping in view the pandemic situation, then these illegally opened casino will only contribute in spread of covid-19. We must report them if we see such casinos in our surroundings.

What I missed here?
Your total profit for 6 weeks is 0.00265927 BTC or $304.52 USD? I mean, 0.00265927 BTC worth ~$25 USD today, how you get $304?
Yes, you missed a few things. If you're from the beginning, you can see that his investments are estimated in both BTC and USD. He invested when BTC was about 6 thousand dollars (If I remember correctly), and now it is more than 9 thousand dollars. Therefore, although the profit in BTC is small, in terms of USD, compound interest appears here, so he has more than $ 300 of profit  Cheesy

It does not matter much as long as he is in profits. Actually it is very difficult to find such legit investments which actually give real profits. I invested few times in some other programs but i was scammed twice.  Sad

Am I the only one who believes that it will fell below 8000$?

No.  There are likely a few other losers, no coiners, fence sitters, bitcoin naysayers, sold too much too sooners, and/or alt coin pumpeners who are in the same camp of wishfulness as you.

6537  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Wagering More or Wagering Less on: May 20, 2020, 01:39:57 PM
It's a general perception that if we gamble more, we can get more profit. Also we see gambling sites offering wagering competitions. The more you wager, you become eligible for a reward or prize money.

What's your though on this ?   Wagering more makes you win more money in gambling?
Wagering more means increasing the chance of getting REKT and decreasing the time for burning the balance. It is kinda trade-off and incentives matter here. Wagering competitions are created for attracting the gamblers with lucrative promotions and they are convinced to take the bonus with hitting once. For one hit it can give X amount but we already have wagered more than double of the winning amount. In the long run, the only house wins.

Everyone knows that houses will win most of the time but still people are wagering and taking part in wagering competitions. People do get REKT but they still take risks because the winning amount is too much attractive.

effects of coronavirus is an impact on all industries including gambling for all kinds of sports have stopped this led to a game betting on gambling stopped all this makes gambling less attractive again to make betting on platform betting this effect affect all types of jobs throughout the country.

Gambling is not much affected by covid 19 but since people loses their jobs and source of income, therefore they spend less on gambling. Apart from that no online casino closed in this lockdown and people had easy access to gambling activities.

51 votes in the poll so far

43 vote for Fury
8 votes for Wilder


According to members here within the forum there is not much hope in Wilder winning the re-match.

Keep the votes coming in please  Grin

No one is voting for a draw. If there is no match, then it will come in the draw category ?
It will be better if you put another option to vote for " No Match possible due to covid 19"   Cool
