781  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Europa Conference League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Semifinals! on: May 06, 2022, 05:00:15 PM
Mourinho can make history if he wins this competition, and in its first edition. In fact, he has already made history, reaching five European finals with four different clubs.
If you win this competition, you will be the first coach to win the main European competitions: UEFA Cup, Europa League, Champions League and now you can win the Conference League.

I see that the bookmakers have not yet published team quotes for the upcoming final and are not yet accepting bets on this event. Most likely the favorite will be Roma.
By the way, has it already been explained somewhere why Mourinho was crying after the final whistle? I saw that he was so overwhelmed with emotions that he could not restrain himself. Is it because the match was tense, I did not think that Mourinho is capable of such emotions in such a tournament.

I dont really like the Wild Beach Party, although the game is mostly similar to Fruit Party 2 but I prefer Fruit Party 2.
Today I played Fruit Party again and hit another nice multiplier but not bigger than what I got yesterday.



Replay: https://replay.pragmaticplay.net/R4dlqatt25
I'll try Wild Beach Party later, I still have some balance after I withdraw my today's winning.
Lets see if I can get a nice luck in this sexy girl slot.

Wow, cool win, thanks for sharing the replay. I must say that this is a very useful feature (for a casino) I'm not a fan of slots, but while watching the replay I felt a great desire to make a few spins ) Probably the only thing that stops me is that it is difficult to limit yourself to a few spins, and if you play seriously, it also leads to a big waste of time (in my opinion, dice is much faster).
783  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Canelo Alvarez vs Dmitry Bivol - May 7 on: May 05, 2022, 05:57:36 PM
Definitely Bivol can punch based on his records and you can see some highlights of his fights in youtube. It's that if he can land that to Canelo, and if that land flush, can Canelo handle it? Alvarez has one iron chin, it hasn't been broken, even GGG didn't broke it when they fought twice. On the other hand, Canelo is just steamrolling on his past opponents, all champion in 168 lbs. So if there is a chance to score a knock down or even a knock out, it will be Canelo, in my opinion.

The necessary power for a knockout has never been a problem in boxing (maybe only for super lightweights) the only problem is to land an accent punch. And judging by the statistics, Canelo has developed this skill much more than Bivol. There is always a chance for a lucky hit, but if you wait for a knockout, then Canelo really has a better chance of doing it.
784  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Making e-sports more affordable on: May 05, 2022, 05:30:07 PM
To be able to make e-sports more affordable, it isnt necessary to make games free to play. Most of these games already are free to play. Gamers main expenses are hardware. Make GPU more available, that will be more than enough. Make gamers earn through gaming, instead of forcing them to stream for 8-10 a day with sponsors tshirt on, and there will be an e-sports athlete in every second house.

I think that when we talk about professional sports (whether it's a regular sport or an esport), the most expensive thing is not equipment, but time. To put it bluntly, to be a successful athlete you have to train like Koreans 24/7, but it is unlikely that many people can afford such intense training given that they have many other tasks in life (even school / work takes up most of the day).
785  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: PH banned online cockfighting - Worst gambling-related cases recorded! on: May 05, 2022, 05:21:53 PM
Cockfighting and other forms of gambling have been in existing in the Philippines but this is the only time that it made an impact to the society, this is because in the past there is a time limit in cockfighting and you had to go to the venue and so are other forms of gambling like horse racing but here in e-sabong it is made available to you 24/7, you can bet anytime and a compulsive gambler cannot stop himself on something that is there 24/7.

But in the end it turns out that this entertainment is completely forbidden for everyone - both for those who can control themselves and for those who cannot. Can this be considered acceptable? I think no. If the state begins to consider citizens as morons who themselves cannot make decisions, then after a while this can lead to a dictatorship.

This has happened to a lot of users, I even have seen people busting big loans. Is important to understand when to stop and take our loss because the feeling after hitting an empty wallet is terrible.

Is one of those non-cheap lessons that cryptos have for us.

This is a terrible lesson, but I agree that it is very useful and probably every gambler should get it as soon as possible. For example, I learned a similar lesson when I was a student and lost my "modest" money. I'm sure if I had been "lucky" it might have been the first time I'd faced a big loss in adulthood. It would be much more painful. The most important thing is to draw the right conclusions after such a lesson and not repeat such mistakes again.
788  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Where does your country stand ? on: May 04, 2022, 05:58:39 PM
I am a little surprised as why the top 10 list does not contain US and UK ? I have heard that gambling in US is at its peak but i could not find its name in top 10 list  Shocked

Another thing which i noticed is that these all countries are developed ones, however, i think that there are many gamblers who belong to the underdeveloped countries too. Aren't they included here?

The United States is not in this ranking, probably because it has a very large population and the ranking is based on the average loss per citizen of the country. Therefore, the total losses of US citizens must be huge to be in this ranking. UK may be in 11th or 12th place, who knows, unfortunately we only see the top 10 places.

If a gambling site has obvious design errors and some sections are not filled in (such as Feedback, About Us, etc.), then this is an obvious sign that it is unreliable. But if everything is fine in this regard, then you should not relax, since a good design is worth a mere minuscule compared to the means that scammers plan to steal. I think that more in-depth research is necessary in any case, no matter how attractive the site may look.

At one point, a good-looking design attracts gamblers' attentions and, like what the post above you said, putting such efforts just to scam people won't give them high revenue, unless scammers are just aiming for a small amount to run. Though whatever the case, it's still better to do a good research before you completely entrust your money to these new platforms.

Or, if you are really curious, better to just deposit small funds and look around the site, feel the comfort and test every basis that you have in mind to qualify a good gambling house. Cool Smiley

These are reasonable options, but they are also no guarantee that you will not be scammed - for example, if the scammers have a solid budget, they can run a site that will work as an honest one for a while. But at one fine moment, when they have already won the trust of the audience and will manage funds sufficient to recoup their costs + profit, they can make an exit scam.
Therefore, in my opinion, the most reasonable thing in relation to new casinos is the same as with exchanges: if you do not play, then it is better to withdraw funds. You can't store money there.
790  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: High Rollers on: May 04, 2022, 05:41:49 PM
The problem for those who have millions in their account and want to enjoy (adrenaline) from gambling is that in order to get this adrenaline they have to bet sensitive amounts. Just as you won't worry about a one cent bet, they won't worry about a bet that seems huge to us. Therefore, it can be said that if high rollers decide to enjoy gambling, they risk amounts that are sensitive to them.

There is a certain tendency for the great apostators, in the threads of some casinos I have realized that those players who have millionaire profits bet only in slots, I think that they have in their mind that the slots are the best option to earn large amounts of money . When we play Poker or Black Jack, even any game like Crash, the profits are somewhat predictive, unless you play in Crash betting a 5x, 10x and yes, it is likely to win, but it is the only way.

In the slots there are many options, suddenly a 6x comes out or a combination is made and then a 6x is made then the profits are very large, even with little balance you can give great profits, and if a player bets $3k, $4K , the profits are millionaire, I think they are based on those characteristics to be able to play and win.

To be honest, before drawing such conclusions, I would like to see some statistics that either confirm or refute this. Personally, it seems to me that high rollers usually play games where there is some illusion of control over the outcome of the competition - for example, betting on sports events. The bookmaker's edge is no less than the house edge (and often even higher) but there is an illusion that your analysis can be stronger than the bookmaker's analysis and that you have a chance to beat him.
791  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🏆 The Emirates FA Cup - Season 2021/2022 on: May 03, 2022, 02:01:18 PM

On the one hand, this game will take place more than two weeks before the decisive game in the Champions League (where Liverpool already has a good advantage) and thus one cup competition will not interfere with another. But the regular season hasn't gone away, and given that any point loss there will cost Liverpool a chance at the championship, Liverpool is unlikely to give 100% in this final. If Chelsea have the motivation to win the FA Cup, then I think they will be able to do it because Liverpool will not have enough strength to fight on three fronts.
I just saw how Chelsea played last night, I don't know why is so hard to win. There is no fighting like they did in half session, they only question about faulty even have almost 80% ball possession. And again if Tuchel has a problem with Lukaku better put him on the market, I don't know exactly why he didn't play yet, if no preparation between 2 weeks, Lukaku didn't try to play yet and still like this in the Final, for sure we will see they're lost again.

If you look at the statistics, the match should have ended either with a Chelsea victory or a draw, but Everton were more concentrated in converting their chances. I think this is due to what I already wrote - for Chelsea this season is already over and the only game where they will "burn eyes" is the FA Cup final. I think that Chelsea in this final and Chelsea in the remaining games of regular season in will be completely different teams.
792  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Horse Racing and Gambling on it should be banned on: May 03, 2022, 01:49:19 PM
I should note that after covid vaccination there is a significant increase in heart attacks among athletes, including football players. I won't develop any conspiracy theories around this, but it has attracted a lot of attention.
As for comparisons with human sports, I agree with you, but there is a nuance: everywhere there is some acceptable percentage of deaths after which sport becomes unacceptable. For example, it was great in boxing before, and after the legislators ordered the boxing federation to fix it or close it, doping requirements and some rules were changed in favor of athletes. This greatly reduced the number of deaths in the ring (and out of it).
Now the important question is what is the actual mortality rate among racehorses and whether we can consider it acceptable to require a change in the format of the competition or something else to reduce it.

We have to accept that some animals are being used to make money. Some of them function that way not just because its necessary but tradition. Horse raising will always be a traditional game and it will never be banned because there will be lots of gamblers that will disagree. There are really unacceptable animals being used in gambling but we have to deal with it.

Yes, I do not see anything reprehensible to honestly admit that humanity uses animals for its own benefit (the simplest example is we eat them). So it was and so it will be, and this is due to humanism - most value human life and interests higher than the life of a chicken, for example. In my opinion, this is correct. I am rather afraid of the activity of those who want to equate human life with the life of an animal than the order of things that exists now.
793  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Africa Football Discussion Thread || Current discussion: World Cup Groups. on: May 03, 2022, 01:36:31 PM

FIFA has fined Nigeria N64 million (about 150,000 Swiss Francs) and play a match indoors for what fans did on the stadium after the Super Eagles of Nigeria failed to beat Ghana in their qualifiers for the Qatar 22 world cup on March 29, 2022. And I like it. It was stupid for fans to encroach on the pitch and cause destruction of the stadium. I know the fine will be paid from tax payers money but it will serve a warning to the federal government of Nigeria to ensure adequate security next time for matches.

Find story here https://guardian.ng/sport/fifa-fines-nigeria-n64m-orders-eagles-to-play-one-match-without-fans/

This is the right decision and I think that the Nigerian Football Federation should take this seriously because the next stage of punishment is either a fine for the team on the points earned in the next tournament or a complete suspension from the competition for any period. If I remember correctly, at one time such a large football federation as Italy was removed from the euro cups for several years due to the riots that the fans staged.

For sure what crypto.com do influence them to do the same marketing strategy. And for making this to happen by reaching huge crowd for sure this two companies will really wake up the interest of the people who want to start their crypto career. Also will not get surprise if many huge crypto companies will do the same and this is truly great because the whole crypto market will get benefited on what actions they do these days.

It's starting to snowball - one pulls the other, and crypto companies compete with each other to get the "coolest" collaboration. And most importantly, traditional business looks at such cooperation as at usual, in fact, crypto companies are no different from any other companies anymore.
By the way, I heard that the other day in Argentina, due to inflation, the government allowed state institutions to work with cryptocurrencies - this is the next stage of adoption, which in turn will entail a lot of similar news that we see in the first message.

Someone who is wealthy and has a million in his bank account might have found it a fun experience and had some fun with that 20k. However, there are also players who have 21k in the bank account and then gamble all 21 completely. Then you are also a high roller, but I think it will remain a one-off adventure. High rollers gambling profitably seem surreal to me or they are inconspicuous. Then you could still do good business with high stakes poker.

The problem for those who have millions in their account and want to enjoy (adrenaline) from gambling is that in order to get this adrenaline they have to bet sensitive amounts. Just as you won't worry about a one cent bet, they won't worry about a bet that seems huge to us.

For a good looking gambling site then you wouldnt really expecting for it to be ending up on being a scam.You wouldnt really that be thinking that they wont be putting all of their efforts
into their business just for them to scam out user funds which wont really be ending up on having no worth and instead they would really go or come after for long term
runs since they do know that they could really get revenue from it but of course they would really be needing for them to get recognition and popularity in the market.

If a gambling site has obvious design errors and some sections are not filled in (such as Feedback, About Us, etc.), then this is an obvious sign that it is unreliable.

I agree, what all things mentioned is true. Rather than unlucky me, it is the lack of control and the choice of risking. Same time I just want to convey, if I'm lucky even the lack of control and choice of risking could've brought me good profit. For that reason I've mentioned as unlucky me.

As said the chance of winning isn't guaranteed, myself mentioned of the winning chance is high, just because of placing the bets to roll over 20 on dice. For this the winning chance is 80%, but as mentioned it isn't guaranteed.

You bet with a very high probability of winning, but lost very quickly, this is a really rare case. Can you elaborate on how much you raised after a bad roll and how many bets you lost/won in total before you lost your entire deposit? I find it hard to believe that you are on a long losing streak with such a high probability of 80%. Even a series of four defeats in a row under such conditions is 0.16 percent likely.

This is a very ancient sport/game. It is not going to get banned. Probably never. Lots of football players die of heart attack every year. They run like horses too. The are many similarities between a horse race and a soccer game. Just because footballers die sometimes, do we need to ban football/soccer? This logic don't make any sense to me.

I should note that after covid vaccination there is a significant increase in heart attacks among athletes, including football players. I won't develop any conspiracy theories around this, but it has attracted a lot of attention.

800  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The Paradox of Gambling behavior on: May 01, 2022, 03:16:44 PM
I don't understand people who have gambled and lost all their possessions to gambling addiction. They often think that the next match will definitely win and return everything he has bet in the past. Often they fail in such thinking. And some people often reason to fill their spare time with gambling games. However, they are also addicted and sacrifice everything. Gambling must have a limit, we must control between losing and winning. Everyone has won at gambling and also lost, but they always multiply their winnings to be played again until everything is completely exhausted.

If you look around, you can see that such behavior is common not only in gambling - many people invest all their time in online games or even in sports (a few of the athletes achieve that their activities "pay off"). Maybe it's normal for a young age to get involved in something to the maximum, it's another thing when this happens in adulthood and breaks an already established life.
