Ah well. I actually did think this prediction had an outsider chance of coming true after yesterday's slip but then the weekend bulls came out, as they did last weekend. No harm, though, right OP? Gives you an opportunity for another thread. Might have to be above 45k by tomorrow hm?

Yeah, I disappointed about Suduva and Panevezys elimination. Epecially because they didn't played bad and opponents weren't impossible to beat. The New Saints achieved their biggest win in Europe. Lithuanian league is ranked 33th in Europe, while Welsh is just, so, loos on aggreagate 10:1 against Welsh team looks shameful and I'm surprised that they didn't sacked coach yet. But I don't like this team at all, so, I'm not disappointed about their loss.
Yeah, I think they've been doing real wonders in two seasons past. Don't really know much about Welsh teams but since the two of them best ones started playing in EPL the rest have been gaining in overall quality I think, judging from performances in Europa. Maybe they will actually appreciate appearing in this Conference League and then get more prize money to build better squads.

I'm still wondering if I make any bets on these games, the biggest obstacle for me to avoid placing bets on these games is because I don't know these clubs, it's difficult for me to do pre-game analysis, I can't get much information on the TV channels either. , I even thought about making at least 3 bets betting on luck, for example: if team X has 1.50@ odds against team Z that has @2.0 odds I thought about using luck and betting on three games where the teams have @ 1.50 odds, but then I thought that this too is risky and I came back in indecision. I'm amazed when I see people placing bets on these games and winning them, and it's something amazing
I usually compare league positions plus form if possible, and if a current league champion is riding high, and meeting a mid-table team on a poor run from a "superior" league, sometimes the odds are just about coefficients and then you see 10/1 ++ odds, I feel like handicaps are really good values (or draw/win). Drita were 40/1 against Feyenoord, for example... but were runners up in their league, while Feyenoord were fifth and had a horrible season. Of course quality is quality but if you bet on a HT win last night for Drita, you'd be pocketing 14/1. @LTU_btc I should have guessed you were Lithuanian and I actually have good times with The New Saints -- really value odds on both legs (both scoring 5) and even the same last season;) You must be gutted about Suduva losing on pens and Panevezys out on a last-gasp goal. @Trofo: Rijekaaaaa

Are you saying there is a quantitative limit on blackjack? For some reason, I always thought that this offer was valid for only two hours from the moment of publication, regardless of how many people joined. By the way, according to the results of the first half, only 8 points (4 goals, 2 cards, 2 corners).
We are guessing, at least I am ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) But let's call it educated guess. By my observations most blackjack offers are valid for two hours as you said but some of them expired a lot sooner. My guess is that is because there is a limit for how many bets they will take, never checked it though. Maybe it is just a case of somebody setting the promo wrong but I always noticed it on higher profile games so... There's a limit on every market, it's pretty normal. Some limits you hit on your own (like how our stake is limited per person/account), some limits are by available "liquidity". I personally see it as assurance that all bets and payouts can be honoured by the book because they know their evolving risk. I wouldn't be betting on a book without these limits, as then I know they're gambling on outcomes rather than on balanced accounting sheets. Hertha-Liverpool even as a friendly was big. Watched the game and stadium was almost full -- VVD made his reappearance and the fans wanted to see that so badly!

Ouf, too late for me. Just got back, was trying on mobile as soon as I saw the slip posted but even that didn't work for me. Must have "sold out" pretty quickly and it's a pretty big match, if you ignore it's only a friendly;)
Good luck to those who took it!

Anyone got lucky yet with the double and triple wins on world and Olympic records broken? Have quite a crazy streak of missing out on the new records...
Also haven't hit tennis or soccer specials either. Trying to pick put underdogs and hoping they get an early goal or a 4 game lead on one set but has not happened yet;)
Can't believe no one has shared any wins yet!

Strange that I did not get any notification about this. Was fairly active this year after some time not using it, not that I have any funds there except a few dollars worth of crypto. Or maybe that is why I didn't get notice.
Anyone know if the limits apply to fiat withdrawals also? Or are they completely cut out of fiat now in EU since Clear Junction killed their business? They used to do instatnt euro withdraws for 80 euro cents. Was very useful for emergencies.

Conference League returns tonight and while I avoided bets on UCL qualification last night, I might dip into the underdogs here.
Qarabag seem best value at around 2/1 but Hibernian actually looks like a good bet only 15/10 but they dominated the last match.
Anyone here supporter of a team they want to get through tonight?

@Wind_Fury Yeah, life used to start really early for people, as they already had those responsibilities you mentioned from a young age. It is a mark of privilege that most people in developed countries still can study and live the student life well into their 20s. And as aoulain says some even into their 30s enjoying, taking gap years, holidaying, no need to be responsible for anyone else other than themselves.
But as the world ages, inflation rises, wealth becomes concentrated in the hands of the few, pensions become smaller, and more people in non-welfare states suddenly find themselves old and unemployable, shit will get stirred.
We are the fortunate few to be given an opportunity to survive that bleak future.

BlockFi seems to be the platform with more reputation. But since the recent news we're getting with back to back regulatory issues, I wouldn't recommend it or any staking platform in general (I wasn't really a fan of any of em in the first place).
Personally, I'm happy with just holding my bitcoin on my non-custodial wallet and simply just waiting for the price to appreciate.
I think Blockfi got some guys criticizing it because it didn't want to show proof of reserves, plus had no insurance (this was sometime last year though don't know if they got it today). It is the preferred platform of big media influencers though. Nexo on the other hand seems to have Bitgo/Lloyds insurance, but I think it was really low like $100 million, which obviously seems to me that if it goes down, people only get back a fraction of their deposits:) I've been keeping an eye on Nexo ever since this thread started, and I actually went ahead with Nexo (you might remember it, as you responded here). Nexo still haven't won me over BUT they do seem the best of the worst (custodial being the bad thing here). They've increased their insurance, displayed all their licenses and apparently are working on a proof-of-reserves solution that any client can access in real time. I will update the thread there shortly now that I'm reminded, there's been quite a bit going on with them since then to improve their offering (bigger insurance, more licenses, proof of reserves) ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Can't believe I forgot to put in my tickets today. Even missed a 4/1 special at my favourite bookie for Celtic to progress and score first -- which they're well on their way towards now after a slow start in first half. They did ruin my acca on the first leg though... these are my kind of bets, which bookie is this you use for the specials? Sportsbet. They have specials on tennis, football, cricket, events and tourneys practically every four hours or so, every 2 hours towards the evening. HT results are all looking rather predictable so everyone doing fav accas should be doing well.
HT I would go for the draw any day, playing the favorites is not my thing because the price is mostly too small. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) [/quote] I do accas on favourites, but no less than 15/10, although I do have a bad tendency to lump 4/5 favs together, and spice it up with a "can't lose" leg at small odds.

Have never felt protected in all my years of gambling online, to be honest, but then I never really put a lot of money down at unregulated casinos, (okay, except crypto dice and bankroll investments, but I've been pretty fortunate to never have been scammed).
Previous to crypto, I was using cards to deposit online so I always felt safe -- cards you just tell the bank what went wrong, and they always refund you, so I guess that's relying on consumer credit protection. And again here, I've never been scammed.
Sunday gambler of course, with hardly enough sums to raise eyebrows, so don't know if that's part of the reason?
The idea of a regulated mediator sounds cool. But please not game-protect style.

Anyone taking that 10:1 leveraged position about 3 days ago should probably have crashed and burned by now, OP do you feel bad people who get trolled also lose money or is this a "you get what you deserve" lesson and I'm going to get learned when Bitcoin goes to 0?

Going to try give it some love a bit later, but yeah, what a great way to promote your upcoming studio! I don't really know these days if gamers are up for puzzle solving, but a quick reminder from all those app ads telling me download puzzles games suggests it ain't dead.
You know the guy OP or just sharing?

Oh man. Now profits is below 11k, might even not make it out of the season with 10,000 units. Not that it's a bad thing, still great to end the season in profit after so many consecutive losses but it really teaches me that my league football is a lot better than tournaments heh. One last Olympics men's football bet, then I'll give up and go elsewhere haha. 100 units at Sportsbet on South Africa to WIN vs Mexico @10.24. Other odds: 9.80 Units advantage: 44 Running advantage after 422 bets: +28,852 (+344) All-time cumulative: +67,150 Running units after 421 bets (63W|358L): +10,978 (-100)

Just checking the draws for tonight and again we have lots of heavy favorites so I have to turn to handicaps. I am thinking easy matches for Zverev and Medvedev so taking them -3.5. Humbet could make some problems for Tsitipas so I am taking Humbert +5.5.
And another value pick, Broady to win against Chardy. When I am looking at the stats this should be easy for Broady and odds are @2.5. I am just a bit skeptical since I never saw him play so it is difficult for me to judge the match up properly.
Medvedev made it. Far too late for me to have seen this but I am almost skipping pre-match tennis altogether after a really bad showing so far, and going instead to try and catch early games for live betting, waiting to see if favourites drop the first set and then putting money on them. I put it on Nishikori at 2.65 when he was down 6-5 on first set just now. Hope he scrapes out of this mess he made for himself. Chardy is now 2.6, and Fokina is 14/1 (which a particular bookie will pay out if your ML leads by 4 games at any stage of the game) so considering a small bet on Fokina, as Djokovic has yet to throw a set -- and he normally does at least once a tourney;)

I want to post a dancing gif as inside I was dancing. @icopress I kept track until 80 minutes too, from 73 til then we needed 5 points and I thought it just wasn't happening at all. Then switched off and read a book. Got bored, checked back, saw that 94th minute goal and 4 extra corners that we needed. Awesome Blackjack woohoo!
@arallmuus oh man come on! You always put a bet if you can! I've missed a few, but all were pushes, I hit every single Blackjack and bust haha.
Nice one, guys!

@examplens yeah man you missed the Sao Paolo announcement. In fact, Flamengo just played them a few nights ago -- 5-1 thrashing if I recall. Caused us to bust a Blackjack special and then some! ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) @morvillz Love Hash Clash. I like El Lambo too, has the potential to be a Clasico. Here's a few uninspired ones: - della Kripto -- The Crypto Derby? (someone help me with the language) - Derby Blok Eternia (imagine if this turns into a 30-year crypto casino war of sponsorship haha, rivalling Serbia's eternal derby) - the Moonies

Surfing fail huh. Some sports just don't quite fit Olympics but I guess people got bored of swimming haha. For the first time in history, our country PH now finally gets its 1st Gold Medal in the Olympics.
I saw that plastered all over the news, well done my friends and neighbours from my home;) Bermuda also got their first-ever gold so it's so far a great event for all you underdogs. If only Southeast Asian governments just paid a bit more attention to all the tough nuts out there working hard to bring fame to their country.
