701  Economy / Economics / Re: Is there anything like Bitcoin savings? on: June 02, 2023, 09:33:16 PM
Some will call this a stupid question 😅 but yea, it's just something that came to my mind today after giving a lot of thoughts about Bitcoin.

Is possible to open a personal savings account in the bank and always send money to that account and when you are ready to collect the money, bank will give it to you, my question is, is it possible to also creat a Bitcoin wallet and always send Bitcoin to it as a savings? if you do that for some year without going back to the wallet, will anything happen to your Bitcoin or the wallet?

I don't think that something will happen if you do so. The main  problem with BTC in this case - price fluctuations. However, there are a lot of problems with bank accounts too (withdrawal and deposit limits etc). Moreover, these days there is a risk of fiats inflation, it means that "price fluctuations" are possible for fiats too. So, in general, both strategies are ok.
Both have got the fluctuating market that gives similar proportion at the end. This is true when we make an overview, because bitcoin is volatile by its development. Fiat is fluctuating out of the inflation. When we save bitcoin in a non custodial wallet we don't want to stress much, keep on saving what is possible and we'll get the return assured. With fiat the scenario is different, we need to trust on the bank and keep on saving. The government might announce bankruptcy, we can't do anything by the time.

I feel this to be an unlucky day for OP. Earlier I've seen him post good winnings through his bets. From $4000 to $90k itself a big achievement, and everyone is able to achieve it. Here it looks like he's completely good with his predictions. Just because he lost the all in one bet, it looks like he's over confident with the bet. Anyhow he needs to start once again from the bottom. Maybe following his bets will help us make good winning, because of his previous betting history.

As everything is clearly mentioned in their ToS, violating the same gonna be problematic someday. Maybe for the moment we doesn't get about it. We itself know that we have violated the ToS using VPN. In such situation how can we request help on the blocking of our account.

It is a must for everyone to read the ToS, and I'm sure no one does it. Simply everyone go on the flow clicking agree. Understanding and not doing it seems to be fair, so that doesn't get into unwanted issues and enjoy gambling.

The target set by Gujarat Titans was certainly a good scare. But if 20 overs game was played then the match could have changed a bit. However, Chennai Super Kings performed well from the first 12 overs but fell a few wickets in the last 3 overs and at that time Gujarat Titans managed to come back into the match as the last two balls of the last over were in favor of the batsmen resulting in two boundaries to seal the win favor of CSK. In yesterday's match, captain Dhani could not show his ability in batting but the team once again confirmed the IPL win.

The comeback was indeed great. Although MS Dhoni was not able to showcase his talent in the finals yet his team won the match.
We cannot really say if the same would have happened if the overs were not reduced.
But I guess it was their luck and hardwork that lead them to victory. Jadeja showed an outstanding performance too.
It was definitely worth the finals and it couldn't have been better.
Yes, winning the match is a matter of great joy. But I never imagined that a responsible player like Dhoni would show clumsiness in an important match. Dhoni's performance was extremely poor. His unexpected performance left a red mark in the hearts of the fans. The problem of Dhoni's poor performance in this match. Winning the match has given some confidence back to Dhoni's fans
He should've contributed to the match, but things happened against his prediction. Anyhow the team players were able to do the best and win the match. Though he hadn't made a run, the win belongs to him. He's part of the playing Xl as well as the captain who have took the team from its 9th position on the points table in the previous season to title winner of the 2023 IPL.

Novak Djokovic  -  Marton Fucsovics

the game will start in a few hours, Marton Fucsovics who currently occupies position number 83 and who recently this year managed to reach position number 31 (unbelievable that he came far but fell), is 31 years old and has a sad history in clashes against Djokovic that's because Marton Fucsovics already played against Djokovic in 4 games and lost in all 4 games, so this would be the 5th game and if he loses again which is more likely to happen then he will undoubtedly be very uncomfortable, meanwhile Djokovic who currently occupies the number 3 position and who already reached number one in 2011 comes to this game more comfortable because he will play against an opponent that he has already beaten 4 times, I think that looking at odds and data Djokovic will win this game

Alcaraz - Taro Daniel

expected victory for Alcaraz, although since the beginning of the game it was expected that Alcaraz would win this game, his opponent did not give up and continued to strive so that he had a chance to change Alcaraz's great favoritism, congratulations to Taro Daniel who lost but fought as well as he could until the end of the game and congratulations to Alcaraz for the victory, waiting to see the result of the next games, the favorites don't seem to be having many difficulties to beat their opponents

Djokovic struggled in the first set but managed to win it and later destroyed Fucsovics in the second set and later on won the match easily. Looks like Djokovic is getting back into form and might even win the whole thing,while Alcaraz won 3-1 and lost one set to Taro Daniel but still managed to go into the next round.
In one of the similar match between Tsitsipas and Carballes Baena the match ended in direct sets. The second set alone looked close reaching the tie breaker. Comfortable win for Tsitsipas 6-3 77-64 6-2 while the players on his category have struggled at some instance. Previously he lost to Medvedev in the Italian Open semifinals. This time once again he hopes for the best to happen.

Gambling is not a steady income provider. There are people who does it, but for the same they could've lost big and gained big experience. Now they have some principles of having patience, taking break if the bets doesn't favour, spending very limited time per session, no going with some targets. This too doesn't work, if we were unlucky. Just a small amount for the month will get you the best of entertainment as well as lets people stay away from unwanted money issues as well as avoid getting frustrated.
708  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A Nigerian Father Rejects Son's Gambling Win on: May 31, 2023, 11:00:08 PM
What I want to see is the update about this and how was the boy reacted and and what is the movement he comes out.

Because I believe that if the boy made to gamble all those times meaning His father did not look into what is he dealing and yeah that means they allow him to gamble but does not want to win?

If I were to be the boy? surely I will leave the house and will live my own .
The boy is addicted to gambling maybe his father doesn't know about it but when the boy wins the gambling and gets money profit then maybe the boy's father comes to know about it and makes him pay back the gambling money. In this case, the boy's father had religious feelings behind not taking the gambling money and the boy decided to return the gambling money based on that religious feeling. In this case, the boy did not disobey his father and he was forced to obey his father's orders completely.
That would've happened, if not the father might've thought of the future impact of gambling. This time the boy have won it, but we don't know what happens tomorrow. There is no assurance that the boy won't gamble again. Maybe he can loss all the money he have won out of gambling. Such situation could lead to frustration and unpleasant things. Thinking it in mind the father could've requested him to settle back the winnings to the gambling house. The best part, the boy obeyed his father which is really great.
709  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will You Allow To Undergo Hypnosis If A Professional Recommend To Cure Gambling on: May 30, 2023, 08:34:57 PM
Hypnosis is medically proven treatment. The effectiveness of this treatment can't be evaluated. It is more of a stress reliever therapy that could help with anxiety, fear, smoking, pain etc. How this turns to be effective with gambling cure needs to be understood. Various types of hypnotizing treatments were there. These treatments have got after effects that keeps the person under dizziness, headache and upsets as they forget some incidents. My choice of giving a try with hypnosis therapy happens once after taking few trials of making myself get out of the addiction. In simple, when we're ready to give up gambling through hypnosis why can't we do it of our own.

Dhoni has been leading Chennai Super Kings for a long time. And it was under his leadership that CSK won the IPL title five times. There should be no question about his captaincy. If we consider the category of best captaincy, he should be at the top. 
MS Dhoni is a tactical genius and he is one of the best captains in the world and the best India ever produced.

Fun Fact: For 15 years Dhoni is the CSK captain and won 5 titles, Virat Kohli is leading RCB for the same amount of time and is yet to win a title  Grin.
Another fun fact : Even Hardik Pandya have won the title. Maybe in the upcoming season RCB will lift the trophy.

Four runs were needed off the last ball, if a good delivery off the last ball, the result of this match would have gone in favor of Gujarat Titans.
10 Runs required in the last two balls and Sir Ravindra Jadeja made the day for CSK even though rain tried to foil the game, it was one of the best finals as it went till the last ball and it was a thrilling match. All credits to the coaching staff and MSD for taking an average team and lifting yet another title.
Thats very important, very average team. With the team Dhoni have done the best. From the start, bit of popular ones were Dhoni, Jadeja, Moeen Ali, Conway. On the batting line-up nothing. Through the league few players were known to the cricketing world. From the very start to the end he hadn't made big changes to the playing Xl which too a big thing that brought him success. In yesterday's match how many of you have noticed I don't know, one thing looked really bad. The attitude of Ashish Nehra while receiving award for the team.
711  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tennis League All Thread on: May 30, 2023, 08:02:20 PM
I watched Medvedev match for 15 minutes and placed a bet on Wild @ 4.85 odds.

It's amazing how big Medvedev's drop in quality is when nothing goes his way. If he just stayed calm, he'd have won eventually - but it's always the same with him.
He started well on clay this year and then fell apart in the most important tournament.

I expected so much more from him a few years ago. Nowadays I just try to place some high odds bets against him.
Thats an awesome bet and a big win. Not everyone have got the courage to go at these high odds when the player involved is on the top line.

From the scoring pattern, it looks like he's out of control from the very beginning. The first two sets reaching the tie breaker itself shows how good Seyboth Wild have
played against Medvedev. The efforts in the first two sets would've made Medvedev tiresome to play in the consecutive sets 76-65 66-78 2-6 6-3 6-4.

Based on the he plays, there are more chances of winning bets against him if watched closer.
712  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: May 30, 2023, 07:52:54 PM
LOL.. I don't agree with your views. You are assuming that players like Gill and Rahane will carry their good form to the WTC finals.
Not sure what made you assume that Gill & Rahane are pathetic players in test format. They are batters who can play comfortably in all three formats of cricket. Considering their present form with presence of mind and the right short selection they would be able to deliver what is expected of them. Always being negative and judgemental will come back to you. A week or so is left for the game to start we will see whether India is able to win the cup or not.
Here I am feeling you are taking T20i form useful for the batsmen into test which is mostly not works because this transition have many issues with change of conditions are also having his impact as well even right now India having physiological edge against Australia after winning BGT trophies but still this is completely different competition where Indian needs to be aggressive and well-prepared because here their track record is also not good in long run.
With Bumrah is surely going to be missed by fans, but now we have good backup which need more experience which will help them for having better results in coming years right now batting is having quality, but consistency is also problem hopefully now after good season in IPL we will have good from these in this final as well.

T20 and test are both very different formats. So, I do not know if it is very intelligent to think that the players who have performed really well in the T20 format are going to do well in the test format as well. And that is also when the test match is going to be played only after a few days. Don't get me wrong, they are obviously incredible players and I don't think people actually care about test cricket that much, to be honest. But it is a very different format when compared to the T20. So expecting something great from them might not be the best idea.
The match taking place away from the home makes it even more interesting. Soon after a big league back to the game for the nation. Both were obviously different, and the players have got well adopted to these kind of situations. The playing members might haven't got good rest, but they'll be in good connect with cricket unlike the format. Even this helps with making better performance. The match being played on extremely different weather condition seems to trouble the players performance. Lets see what the Indian cricket squad able to do against the Australia team, as we're few days away for the match.
713  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: May 30, 2023, 07:43:29 PM
If not for the rain, perhaps Gujarat would have won the trophy. Chennai had already lost 5 wickets and if they had lost one more then it was down to the tail. The shortening of target helped them to chase it down and it relieved some of the pressure. Well, they had Moeen Ali at no.8, but he has been in terrible form this year. And at no.9 to no.11, they had three genuine tailenders - Deepak Chahar, Tushar Deshpande and Maheesh Theekshana. How difficult was it to break the 6th wicket partnership between Shivam Dube and Ravindra Jadeja?
 
That's the question from everyone. We don't know what exactly could've happened. Maybe there is chances of winning the match, but thats bit of tricky thing. The captaincy is the key factor behind yesterday's win. We were able to see every player of CSK make some runs at the right time. Moeen Ali was in good form, but he hadn't got much of opportunities to play in this season of ipl. All of the sudden into the pitch and to score big could've landed him in trouble. Another important thing is the failure of Rashid Khan to take wickets. CSK batsmen were very cautious playing against every bowler. Against Noor Ahmed alone they suffered and at some point it gave a turn to Gujarat Titans.
714  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Indian Premier League #IPL on: May 29, 2023, 08:04:45 PM
Gujarat Titans - 214/4 (20)

Saha - 54
Gill - 39
Sudharsan - 96
Hardik - 21

Chahar - 38/1
Jadeja - 38/1
Pathirana - 44/2

Due to rain interruption match overs cut to 15 with DLS into effect. Based on the same target reduced to 171

Gaikwad - 26
Conway - 47
Rayudu - 19
Dube - 32
Jadeja - 15

Noor Ahmed 17/2
Mohit Sharma 36/3

What a thriller match. Final ball win came for the one and only CSK. Jadeja played well at the right time, he's super awesome. The way he handled the pressure is really big thing, because watching the match itself a big pressure.

Knowledge is the absolute thing that can bring win situation to each and everyone. At the same time it is wrong that what you know will bring money. When a person starts to make money out of a business, he spends it further on other businesses. It is kind of diversification. This doesn't mean that the business have acquired knowledge and investing into other business. It is his ability to manage and find the right person to work for him. In some cases what OP have said is right, but that doesn't suit every situation. However seeking knowledge will bring wealth, with some people it gets delayed.
716  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: May 29, 2023, 04:54:29 PM
Just 3 balls bowled and rain interrupted the match, play stopped due to rain. Huge wind blowing in the stadium. The ground staffs have covered the pitch. It looks heavy, as Dhoni mentioned during the toss rain have interrupted. The ground staffs were doing responsibly covering the entire ground. Once again now the rain have favoured Gujarat Titans win this season's IPL. Once again the audience who rescheduled and watching the match have got wet and started walking towards places to stay away getting wet.

The intensity of the rain is too high at the moment. I wonder if we will be able to see play further  Huh

If the rains stop, Chennai super kings would be given a tough target and I guess it will favor Gujarat Titans. In case, there is no further play possible, then I guess the trophy will be shared between the two teams. Considering the current situation of the match, I think Chennai super kings would want the rain to continue so that they could not lose.

CSK would be loving the rain as they need 211 more runs on 117 balls. It's Sai Sudharsan today scoring 96 runs on just 47 balls. He was unlucky to miss hundred by just 4 runs.  
Few runs away from his century, but he'll be added to each and every teams list of players to be auctioned. Right now CSK can watch the rain which is the only thing possible. It isn't the day of Chennai Super Kings.

The rain stopped and the match can resume anytime soon. Ground staffs have started to take off the cover. Atleast to some extent the rains impact can be experienced in the match.

What the son and mom did together is kind of trick to get back what they've lost gambling. In the advanced technology based living each and everything will be easily caught. Before gambling one should understand well and do the right thing than just struggling after a massive loss. Some people loss funds from their accounts due to hacks. Those are exceptions, apart it is the gambler responsible for the loss. Whether it is sports betting or casino games, one should understand and gamble. Getting suggestions is good, but the end decision should be ours.

CSK VS GT
The final match which was abandoned yesterday is going to start after some time today. I don't know if it will rain again today. We can expect to see today's match. Virat Kohli has scored the most runs in a single IPL season with 973 runs. Shubman Gill has scored 851 runs in this tournament so far. Only 122 runs will equal Virat Kohli's record. Shubman Gill has been batting brilliantly this season. Can Shubman Gill break Virat Kohli's record today?
A performance same as the previous match could make Shubman Gill beat the record of Virat Kohli. However it is Virat Kohli in the lead as he had reached 973 runs in 16 innings. Deepak Chahar missed an expensive wicket of Shubman Gill bowled by Deshpande. Much easier wicket that went directly into the hands. Similar thing took place in the previous match against Mumbai Indians, once after a dropped catch at the earlier overs Shubman Gill scored his 129 runs.

Fognini made quick work of aliassime in Roland Garros after beating him 3 0 i know that the canadian player is not having the best performance recently but i expected the game to be more competitive, fognini impressed me like he did back in the day congrats to him for the qualification.
Fognini have played really well against Felix Auger Aliassime, who used to reach atleast the quarter finals in the recent tournaments. Fognini have defeated in the direct sets 6-4 6-4 6-3. Most of the first round matches have reached the result in the first three sets. In the matches played parallel Djokovic is in lead against Kovacevic. Bautista Agut have advanced to next level winning against You Wibing 77-64 6-1 6-1

Finally much expected match toss have been flipped. Chennai Super Kings have won the toss, which in my view looks like a win for CSK. Dhoni have decided to bowl first, as there are chances of rain. The CSK doesn't have any changes in the squad. Hardik says they would've bowled first, and the heart wants to bat first. Gujarat Titans plays with the same squad that played against Mumbai Indians. Lets see how good the pitch favour in batting and bowling.
