The decision to enter the world of gambling is purely your own decision, we cannot blame other people for this. If we have a strong stance, I'm sure we can resist gambling. When I stay in Philippines, my two friends and I got into a casino and played slots and other gambling games, even though we lost money there, we also made a profit from playing slot machines. The point is that gambling is just for fun, don't make it your main choice to make money, if you want to make a lot of money, work at a job that can make a lot of money. If you continue like that then your friendship will be damaged.

Always use money that is actually ready to be spent or loss.
There are people who try to blame others for gambling losses. But if they won they would not blame. So why do this kind of behavior? There is no answer but the typical gambler behaves like this when he gambles beyond his capacity or range. Gambling is never forced on anyone. Gamblers use their money as their wish. Gamblers are always advised to keep gambling under control. But they succumb to that greed. When a gambler gambles beyond his range he may lose common sense as he regrets the loss. As long as a gambler gambles within his limitation , he will enjoy gambling. A tendency to blame others is common in those who become addicted.

Bangladesh teams top orders are always failing to collect good start, it’s their common weakness for the long time. Yeah, only 2 batsman taken good runs Soumyo Sarkar 169 (151) & Musfiqur Rahim 45 (57), it was surprised to BAN team Soumyo got century after 5 years it’s a brilliant come back. Without top orders batsmans runs they will never reach 300 runs, so it’s not a fighting scored to New Zealand, they will win because they have strong batting line up.
Every New Zealand batsman is batting well, especially Will Young (89), Rachin Ravindra (45), Henry Nicholls (95), Tom Latham (22*) none of them bats badly. However, except Soumya Sarkar and Mushfiqur Rahim of Bangladesh, none of the remaining 9 batsmen have collected good runs from the bat. So how will Bangladesh perform well as a team? The top order batsmen in the Bangladesh squad need to be given temporary rest at times so that they can prepare themselves and perform well in the next matches.
In Bangladesh tour to New Zealand competition, today was last opportunity for Bangladesh squad to tie this competition by emerging victory because Bangladesh squad had already lost first match of competition and total four matches in this competition. Bangladesh squad lost this today second match but Bangladesh squad performance in this match was very impressive because they made a decent target and due to bowling performance they faced defeat. Every batters of New Zealand squad played very great and total they lost 3 batters only first starter batters collected high runs when they got out then next batters defend remaining target and get victory when 22 deliveries remained.
After seeing the batting performance of the Bangladesh team in the first innings of the last match, it seemed that Bangladesh might be able to win that match but it did not happen. New Zealand team performed better than Bangladesh as they managed to score their target for just losing 3 wickets. But those who were Bangladeshi supporters were completely impressed by Soumya Sarkar's batting. Soumya Sarkar regained form after a long time. He was able to score 169 runs in the last match. On the other hand, no one from New Zealand could score a hundred, but they performed consistently. Because of which they were able to chase 291 very easily.

It cannot be said for sure who will win in the game of cricket, it is proved based on the performance on the field.In the third T-20 match between West Indies and England both the teams played well as they both scored 200 plus runs in each innings of the match.West Indies batted first and collected 222 runs where Nicholas Pooran scored 82 runs off just 45 balls.His innings of 86 runs included four sixes and six sixes.
If I give more credit to England for winning it is Philip Salt.Philip Salt played very very well in this match.He completed his T-20 career century and was even Man of the Match.England beat the West Indies by seven wickets.
Exactly you are right the performance decide that who will win the match. But when I saw the performance of West Indies as compare to the last Matches, that was awesome. And they just went above 200 runs and made 222 runs. At that time I was thinking that England could not this Match but the Phill Salt was really great and he made the whole match salty hahah!
He played really well from start to end and remained not out.
Sometimes man think something else and happen something else and this match proves that.
Philip Salt alone led the entire match and was on the field from first to last to win the match. His performance was amazing. It is always seen that after the series win, the team does not have much pressure to win the last match, but the way West Indies batted in the last match, it seemed that they might win the match in one stage. 222 score is certainly not less in T20 cricket and at that time it was really difficult to think that England will win the match. Philip Salt was unbeaten with a strike rate of 194 along with Harry Brook whose performance was even better as he scored 31 runs off just 7 balls at a strike rate of 442. If such an aggressive game is played in T20 cricket, even if there are 250 runs, chasing it is not impossible.

Trading is about being sure and not being sure. If you are sure, enter and if not, don't enter. Because this really affects our emotions. Emotions when trading are very dangerous. It's better to invest long term. We know that trading can provide profits and losses, the more we use emotions in trading, the more unstable each decision in trading will be and the logic of analysis will be ignored.
More like being not sure, because there is no way to accurately predict our trades. It does not mean though that we will not trade. Of course we will still do it, because how do we know if our trades are going to be successful or not? And how can we earn a profit if we won't take a risk?

Any outcome can trigger our emotions. If we lose, we are going to feel sad but if we are profiting, we are going to feel happy. I see nothing wrong with that but as long as we can snap out immediately because over feeling it can lead to dangers. Long-term investment might have advantages but it also have disadvantages, which can still trigger our emotions.

Correct. It all depends on the person who is able to exercise control and make decisions themselves. The point is to avoid excessive trading. Yes, at least investing is more relaxed than trading.

And it is necessary to pay more attention to always updating knowledge regarding technical analysis and extracting information as fundamental analysis is very important and vital.
Trading business is very easy if we can manage it properly especially if we can make profit in trade. But a trader must know some basics. Especially the market conditions should be well understood. Unless a trader has a good understanding of the market, he will not be successful in trading. But just as you can't be greedy in trading, you must manage trading with risk if you want to trade here. A trader should start trading only after getting the best idea. Everyone comes here for the purpose of profit, but those who can gain comprehensive knowledge about trading and its related issues can be successful in the trading platform. A good analysis certainly does not hinder a trader from taking new trades. If a trader understands when he hast to take a trade and when he should stop, he can easily make profit from trading.

The kind of business I want to share is what is called graundnut oil making. This business idea can help someone that doesn't even have a skill and someone that is not even educated, all the person just needs to have is the money to buy the manufacturing equipment that's all.
With this graundnut oil making business, one can get the kind of life he/she wanted because the demands in this graundnut oil making business are a bit high. One can even start with a little money. However, this business is also an investment. If one can dedicate more time to it, he/she can benefit from it (can make it a company).
To run a business, you must first understand the demand for the product you want to do business. It may be that the product you are trying to manufacture is a new product that is not in demand, but if you can give customers a good idea of your product and if it is really good quality, then you will be more likely to be profitable in that business. There will definitely be risks in business, but if you start, it is possible to get either positive or negative results. There are risks in business but once established there is a chance to be profitable for life. It will depend on the attitude of the entrepreneur. In my opinion you can start the business with a well researched. At first you won't get profit but as your business gets promoted and expanded there will definitely be opportunities to make profits.

A government job is definitely good which will provide you an opportunity to spend your life in an orderly manner but there are financial constraints. That is, with the salary of the job, you can fulfill all the needs in your daily life within a limit. But if you do some other work besides the job like trading you can increase your financial flow through this work. It is not possible to do everything with the money of a job. Those who trade can get lots of cash money. Trading can definitely be a good source of income if it is well understood and managed. But there are risks factors. I think government job is definitely a good opportunity and if one can handle trading with it then he will be able to fulfill his financial condition quickly.
727  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Reckless gambling starts after a win round. on: December 17, 2023, 12:33:24 PM
If you are onto gambling for the first time it's not possible to get addicted to gambling because you haven't tasted what winning feels like, you will be consumed by doubts and uncertainty.

But wait till you have a taste, win some money, that's where you start feeling like there is more if you keep digging, is this not where gambling addiction starts?

We have had a lot of conversations about gambling addiction, but I had the same conversation with someone close yesterday and this was my answer to him.

Do you think its possible to become addicted to gambling when you haven't win a dime or after you win?

I think addiction starts after you win, even if it's just once, that's when you start gambling recklessly and you also start betting higher.


It may be impossible to become addicted after several unsuccessful gambling experiences, but it is possible to feel emotions that can later lead to addiction. Secondly, sooner or later the gain will come and after that it will be more difficult to cope with it and it may develop into an addiction
If a sports bettor who knows the sport very well or has good experience in analyzing data, even if he loses a few bets, he will return to betting later. Because the person will not be able to blame the gambling site instead he will try to recover his lost bets and at some point he may become addicted to gambling. But in general, if a new gambler loses a few bets, he or she will usually feel scared, thus reducing the trend of becoming addicted. But the main point is that a gambler can become addicted to gambling both of his gambling wins and losses.

All the honors that the Bangladesh cricket team has brought to Bangladesh so far are from its U19 team. While there is no end to the criticism of Bangladesh's main team, the U19 team is always the best. The U19 team had previously won the World Cup by defeating India and this U19 team once again defeated India to secure the Asia Cup final and finally beat the United Arab Emirates by a huge margin of 195 runs to win the title of this Asia Cup tournament. Usually more players are selected from the main team than under 19, I don't understand why those who do well in the under 19 team can't do well in the national team. Maybe in the under 19 team the players are successful with the tactics they play but the change in tactics in the main team doesn't get the maximum performance out of them. Anyway congratulations to Bangladesh U19 team for bringing another honor for Bangladesh
Although the game is basically the same, there are big differences in the age and purpose of the players. Those who play in the national team are usually among the best players in that country. Their place of competition and those who are under age cricketers are not the same place of competition. There is a lot of pressure in the national team where players are selected by good coaches and others concerned team. It may also happen that those who do well in Under 19 may not come back and perform in the national team. A player must perform consistently well to play in the national team, there are very few chances. Bangladesh U19 team is usually good. As such, the question may arise in the minds of the general public, then why the condition of the national team of Bangladesh so poor? It may also be for their cricket board mismanagement.

England VS West Indies

Today will be the third match of England vs West Indies T20 series. There have been two matches in this series and West Indies have won both matches and are leading by 2-0. The T20 series will be played in five matches. Today's match is very important for England. If England loses today, the series will be lost. If England wants to win the series, they have to win all three matches. It is not possible for England to win three matches in a row according to the current performance. England team is currently not performing well despite being a strong team. Lost the ODI series against the West Indies and is on course to lose the T20I series as well. According to the current performance, West Indies have more chances to win this match today. Also West Indies will get more support at home. The West Indies players will look to do better today. Let's see if England can survive to win the series today. Do you think which team can win today?

Two T20I matches were played between West Indies and England, both of which were won by West Indies. If England is not performing well this season. Because England team's batting line and bowling line is much weaker than unique team. West Indies can win today as their performance is much better than England. You can compare the ODI matches, West Indies won 2 matches and England won 1 match.

Everyone knows about the dominance of the West Indies team in T20 cricket. Although they have not had a good  performance for the last few years, if they start playing aggressively then any equation is not much for them. They have already won 2 out of 3 matches in this T20 series. Today in the last match of the series they will surely try to beat England team but if we notice one thing that now a days whitewash is not seen in almost every series. If there are 3 matches, one match is less important for team after winning two matches, although there is no proof of this, it does happen. From this perspective, the chances of England winning in today's match are very high.
730  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which one is fun, watching with bet or without a bet? on: December 16, 2023, 04:41:10 PM
Watching without bet. That's obvious. Gambling is fun but it also comes with other things like anxiety, fear of losing, the mental stress etc. I can't enjoy a good game with all these emotions going inside my brain. It's much much distracting to watch a game with bet. Should I focus on the game or focus on my bet. I can't do both at the same time. Until the game finishes I won't have my peace of mind if I place a bet on the game.

I prefer to watch the game without betting because there I can fully enjoy the game I am watching, there is nothing else to worry about such as the bets that I did at the beginning. people's choices vary they can do what they like so they will do it, that's why I choose to watch without betting.
In my case it was different because when I started betting, I encouraged to watch games with bet. I have no interest in watching any game without betting. If I didn't bet I wouldn't watch the game. Sometimes I am not motivated to gamble but when I watch a live game I am very excited to gamble. Now i am able to control myself from that situation. I can adapt myself to any situation. But it's true that when I bet on a live game, that game is more fun for me. When we enjoy a live game with betting we stay between losing and winning moment that I enjoy and there are many who do not enjoy game with any kind of pressure. It depends on the individual.

Zimbabwe vs Ireland today 2nd ODI match, Ireland team won by 4 wickets. Zimbabwe team came to bat and scored 166 runs in 42.5 overs. Zimbabwe team did not do well in batting. Zimbabwe team batsmen were under a lot of pressure for Ireland team to bowl well.  .But today Joshua Little of Ireland team bowled 10 overs and took 6 wickets with 36 runs.Joshua Little bowled well today.Ireland team batsman Curtis Campher was dismissed with 66 runs off 71 balls.Lorcan Tucker scored 28 runs off 46 balls.
I don't understand why Zimbabwe performed so badly at the Zimbabwean venue where a team like Ireland won the T20I series and yet again managed to beat Zimbabwe miserably in the ODI match. Sikandar Raja is not able to perform himself well and also in bowling Zimbabwe is doing worse compared to Ireland. They were able to take this innings to 166 runs yesterday when Zimbabwe fell by four wickets for just 21 runs. But Ireland's innings target of 166 runs was not difficult to win. So I want to make one comment, unless there is some change in the Zimbabwean squad, it is not possible to get anything good in Zimbabwean cricket.
Zimbabwe cricket has been trying for a long time to develop their cricket but they are not able to do that. Earlier I heard that their cricket board is riddled with corruption. They are not able to motivate the players properly. Moreover, the cricket board doesn't get enough support. Now every Zimbabwean cricketer has to take responsibility if they can't keep cricket in good position then their cricket will be in dire straits. Since some of the players are not consistently performing well, there is definitely need for changes in the team. The cricket board must take a proper decision in this regard.

With the listing of ORDI on Binance, the run of BRC20 tokens has increased. Network congestion on the Bitcoin network with common meme coins may have other motives. What  those whales or large investors want? BRC20 tokens have no value but investor hype is driving it to heights that are a hindrance for the entire Bitcoin network. Although this is temporary as those tokens will not dominate in the long run. But if investors were aware then I think such token creators would not be encouraged anymore. The way the market is investing can cause huge losses to those investors at any time. Whatever it is for others but it's profitable for miners.

In the South Africa vs India team match, India team batted first and gave a target of 201 runs. India team managed to score so many runs in this match due to the good performance of the batting line. South Africa did not do well in the bowling line. In this match, India team won by 106 runs.  On the other hand, South Africa was all out for 95 runs. I did not understand that South Africa team would bat so badly. India team did very well in bowling and batting in this match.
India batted brilliantly in the third T20I match against South Africa. India set a target of 202 runs to South Africa. Surya Kumar Yadav batted brilliantly. Surya Kumar Yadav scored 100 runs off 56 balls. Surya Kumar Yadav's brilliant batting saw India reach 201 runs. The South African team was under a lot of pressure after losing the first wicket to bat against the target of 202 runs given by India. No batsman could score good runs to handle the pressure of the South African team. Due to which South Africa was all out for just 95 runs. India won by 106 runs. The T20 series was tied 1-1 with a win against South Africa. Congratulations to Team India
India did not get off to a good start in the third T20I between India and South Africa yesterday.India lost two wickets for 29 runs which put them under pressure.But then when Surya Kumar Yadav came out to bat it occurred to me that maybe I was watching the highlights and not the live game.Yesterday Surya Kumar Yadav played brilliantly he scored 100 runs in 56 balls which was really unbelievable.

South Africa lost to India very miserably.South Africa managed just 95 runs for 10 wickets.
Yeah, India won the match by 106 runs, of course it's a big win for India against South Africa, I think SA were under a lot of pressure from the start when chasing such a big target 201 runs, You know no single batsman can't make a half century, only one batsman David Miller  got good runs 35 in 25 balls & Markram 25 runs in 14 balls. On the other hand Suryakumar Yadav made a big scored 100 runs in 56 balls, he is always big hitter batsman for T20 and today he proved it again.
South Africa completely failed to show the way they performed in the 2nd match. I felt they were more aggressive. Run 201 It's certainly not low but they didn't show good game. It has not been seen how the team has to bat with responsibility to win. If they batted with boundaries and singles in every over, this match would not have been so difficult. Their biggest problem was the power play where they failed. Because of which such a big failure had to be accepted. They lost all their wickets in just 13 overs. If there is no competition in a sport, there is no joy. In yesterday's match, wickets continued to fall at one end due to which the game ended before the allotted overs.

This is the biggest achievement of Bangladesh team for ACC. Because he has reached the final match. He has reached this point with hard work and struggle and effort. Bangladesh played very well and prevented India from scoring more runs and won the match. ACC U19 Asia cup Bangladesh played very well and reached the finnal match. A team like India who will lose to Bangladesh and Bangladesh won till the final.  And I really hope that Bangladesh will win this year final match.Congratulations to Bangladesh from me too.  And in the future, there is a prayer that they will win and they will win.India also worked hard but they could not work as hard as Bangladesh and they will lose the match and if they had worked harder, Bangladesh would have lost.Bangladesh played very well in India match.  Because they worked hard and struggled.

If the Bangladesh U-19 team manages to win Asian Cricket Council Under-19s Asia Cup, then it will be a big achievement for them. At least it will prove that the next generation of cricketers in Bangladesh are competitive against some of the top teams in the world. But at the same time, they should not underestimate United Arab Emirates U-19. They have already been involved in two big upsets (vs Sri Lanka and Pakistan). And it is good for Associate cricket as well. I am not that fond of UAE (because they don't have natives). But then, the fact that an associate nation reached the final is overall good for the lower tier cricket nations.
In 2nd semi final Bangladesh won toss and bowls first india made 188 for all out in 43 overs Musheer Khan make fifty and Abhishek 62 runs contribute india to set target of 189 runs india gave very low target in knockout stage Bangladesh continue their winning streak to chased the target 189/6 in 43th overs Ariful Islam 94 runs help his team to chased the target early Bangladesh playing good cricket on starting of aisa cup and i think they should deserve to won asia cup title They will play final against UAE on sunday
Bangladesh team performed well in ACC U19 Asia Cup, 2023. They beat India U19 in Bangladesh to reach the final. In today's match India batted and set a target of just 188 runs which was not difficult for Bangladesh but if Ariful Islam and If Ahrar Amin could not have scored well then there would have been no chance of winning this match. Ariful Islam scored 94 runs and Ahrar Amin scored 44 runs. The rest did not score so well. Everyone need not to play well in cricket. If two people in the team perform well, the team's chances of winning increase. Bangladesh team won the match by 4 wickets.

And could be that while vetting on taking that loanhe had told the loan company he has a business establishment and wnats to use the money to put into his business to expand supply instead he used it to gamble, activity that is without certainty. I am suspecting (just a suspicion though) that someone must have tip him about doing that, using the loan money as to have it quickly double on a small odd that seem to have  good outlook of playing but bad luck stroke instead.

He knows that nobody is going to give him a loan if he tells them he wants to use the money to gamble, so maybe he told them he needed a loan to expand his business, and after getting the loan, maybe he decided to gamble with it just to increase the money, but he doesn’t know that gambling is not meant to increase money. When gambling, you can easily lose your money and you can win. Don’t take a loan and gamble with it, hoping things will go right. Maybe that was the mindset the guy was having, and things didn’t go as he planned, so he decided to commit suicide.

He imagined only one aspect which was his biggest blunder. Gambling has wins and losses. He may not have tried to understand the consequences of borrowing or loan money. Maybe he forgot it for the time being. Sometimes people don't know what to do when they become too reckless. What I think is that the gambler may have started thinking to himself that he cannot repay the money because of his gambling losses. It may be that he may take such a decision fearing that the lie he resorted to may be revealed to others. But everyone knows that suicide is a worst decision. People with such problems should not engage in gambling with borrowed money.

Pakistan openers did well in the first session of their innings, but the scoring rate was way too low. You can not win a match with this approach. 487 is a big target to achieve. Pakistan's debutants bowled well and shared 8 wickets among them; this is the first time in Pakistan's test history that debutants get 8 wickets in an innings. The pace of the bowlers is not up to their reputation.
The first session will be crucial for Pakistan because the ball will seam, and things will be difficult for the batters early on. Australia will be looking for some early wickets to put the Pakistan team under pressure.
Australia made 487 in his first innings while pakistan scored 132/2 in 53 overs and Day 2 stumps abdullah shafique 42 runs and shan masood played 30 runs innings while imam ul haq on 38 and khurram shahzad on 7 runs are on the crease and start morning session of day 3 with his batting. Mitchell starc and Nathan lyon took single wickets Now pakistan trail by 355 runs Pak playing very slow they need to play fast on day 3 to avoid test draw Australian bowlers shoud take wickets early on day 3. its very difficult situation for pakistan now to win this test on perth
Australia batted brilliantly in their first innings. Australia's opener David Warner batted brilliantly. David Warner scored 164 off 211 balls. Australia batted brilliantly from every batsman as every batsman batted brilliantly they were able to give Pakistan a big run lead. Australia gave Pakistan a lead of 487 runs in their first innings. Batting against the target of 487 runs given by Australia, Pakistan's openers started the game cautiously. Pakistan's current score is 132 runs for 2 wickets. Pakistan's next batsmen will need to bat carefully to get close to Australia's 487 runs. But in the first innings, I think Australia has more chances to win.
Among the Australian cricketers we often see David Warner trying to keep his run ratio approximately with batting. This batsman has a good record in Test cricket. In his long test career he has 36 half centuries including 26 centuries and 3 double centuries in 110 international matches. He batted really well against Pakistan in the first innings of the first test. Australia scored 487 runs in the first innings which is definitely a good total and they bowled today and took two early wickets from Pakistan. Now Pakistan team is definitely under pressure. They need big partnerships as well as need score. Batsmen will find it difficult to bat depending on the conditions.

Today's 3rd T20 match of South Africa vs India team has already started. South Africa team won the toss and decided to bowl. Now India team came to bat. 87 runs in 10 overs. Now India team lost 2 wickets. Shubman Gill 6 balls.  12 runs out. Tilak Varma got out for 0 runs in 1 ball. Shubman Gill got out before starting the batting well. Team India may be able to give a target of 170 runs in today's match. But India have to give a good run target in this match.  If you can, there will be a chance to win the match.
South Africa won toss and bowls first india made 201/7 in 20 overs jasiwal make 60 runs while what a great inning played bg captain suryakumar made century on 56 balls with 8 sixes 3rd wicket partnership of 112 runs help team India to set a good total of 202 runs. Lizaad williams and Maharaj takes 2, 2 wickets while Shamsi and Nandre Burger takes single wickets South africa need to take a agrressive start to chase 202 in 20 overs
India lost the 2nd match but they will definitely be ahead in the 3rd match. Chasing 201 runs in international matches in 20 overs is not very easy. Although the South African team has performed well in the last match at home ground. However, it is clearly seen that the beginning of their match today is not good. The early fall of wickets is not a good sign for them when they are playing for a target of 201 runs. Their required run rate is now around 10 per over. It must be a difficult equation for the South African team to secure a win from this position. However, in today's match, Suryakumar Yadav of India team got a century from 56 balls. His strike rate was 178 which is really good. Hope India will win today's match.

I wish I could have posted this in a more better place but since the thoughts came from gambling addiction, I thought it wise to ask this question over here and I hope we can discuss and get this straight.

Just as the tittle already ask, I really want to know if people who are successful in gambling also seen as addicts because I believe  for one to be successful in gambling or whatever they choose to do, there must be some good amount  of time and effort invested in it as well as money and we know that a successful  gambler must have invested  both time, effort and even money to make any reasonable  winning  and these also are features of an addict as there are always excessive time spent on a betting site.

Now let's be sincere, will you also classify a successful gambler as an addict?

Before this question would be answered we need to agree on our definition of a successful gambler. Now the question is, who is a successful gambler? If we know this, we will examine whether successful gamblers can be called addicts.

Who is a successful gambler
  • Someone who does nothing else to earn a living apart from gambling 
  • Someone who has more wins than losses in gambling
  • Someone who regulates himself, and knows when to gamble and when to stop gambling 
  • Someone who has spent good number of years in gambling and still gambling
  • Any other definition of yourself?   
We can take it up from here, once I have a reply.
Many people can relate to being a successful gambler in different ways. But in my opinion successful gamblers are those who have good gambling experience and use that experience to get positive results in their gambling. Hence only those who win more in gambling I would not say that they are successful gamblers but a successful gambler can make relatively good decisions. He can stop if necessary. He gets positive results in applying his techniques. Successful gamblers are those who can take active risks with long-term good decision-making and, above all, maintain a profitable position.

1. Have a amount limit you can risk on gambling every week.

2. Choose your favourite day in a week for gambling.

3. Have a time count down when gambling, to avoid spending too much time.

Go back home or close your laptop once your time is up, and wait for the coming day, go back to your daily life and business, chase your goals using your business and invest more money on assets.

Do you agree or disagree? Drop your reason why.

These guidelines of yours are certainly excellent. If the mentioned points can be observed then a gambler will not be known as an addicted gambler he will not have the opportunity to become addicted to gambling. But this is where most gamblers go wrong. When they should be giving up gambling, they become more busy. I would like to emphasize two points here one is to keep the gambler's money limitation and the other is to simply accept the loser. There are some gamblers who become addicted after losing. Because they try to recover that loss and they become addicted.

BBL #13: Melbourne Stars vs Perth Scorchers

Bad batting from Melbourne Stars, 101 is no score to defend.

Easy win for Perth Scorchers, could have ended even early had Connolly stayed on ground for some more time, as he had all plans to end it soon.
Perth Scorchers won this match by 7 wickets against Melbourne Stars. Perth Scorchers chase down the target 102 runs in loss of 3 wickets in 13.5 overs. Melbourne Stars poor performance in batting they scored onlu 101 runs a very low target in T20 cricket. The bowling performance of Perth Scorchers is outstanding in this match Jason Behrendorff amazing bowling spell picked 3 Crusial wickets by giving 28 runs in 4 overs. The player of the match is Hamish McKenzie for his outstanding bowling performance picked 2 important wicktes by giving 12 runs in 4 overs.
Melbourne Stars team is not performing very well this season they lost today's match worse than the first match. The batsmen seemed to stand on the pitch just waiting to give wickets. All wickets fell within just 101 runs. However, the fall of the last wicket was a bit late by which crossed the 100 run. What we expect in T20 matches is more boundaries and scores. A match is never entertaining if the runs are not get high. A competitive match attracts all the attention to that match. Today's match is completely one sided. Perth Scorchers is defiantly a good team and if any team given target of 170 runs against the team they cannot expect to win.
