I'd love to go to that casino in Venezia just for the general feel of what's inside one of the oldest gambling establishments in the world. While I may not be spending money on them, at least I get to feel what other people of old felt when they stepped inside this casino. As for casinos being popular in Germany, it's surprising that a lot of their gamblers aren't really problematic and are just there to take a chance or have a good time.
It looks like Germany have got good number of old Casinos. There is not much of news coming out of Germany about problem gambling, which shows the people prefer gambling to spend time. Everyone wish to have a visit to the old casino, particularly I love Germany for some reason. I have a dream to visit Germany atleast once in my lifetime. To the list now I can add the old Casinos.

The best time to invest is when the price is at its bottom. With bitcoin it isn't possible to identify which is the bottom price. We need to move along with the market. Investment on bitcoin have high risk associated with it, but we should have the mind to invest unlike the price.

Simply an investor should have the patience after investing, surely he'll be able to enjoy the profit out of the investment. Watching the charts will make the investor feel bad at times, but the profit is assured. For this reason whenever it is possible just invest atleast through the DCA or some strategy that let you have bitcoin at the best price.

How to save savings in inflation, there are many deposits provided by the bank, but banks often go bankrupt, does it make sense to buy gold? How is gold bought in a bank and interest is issued on it?
did you not want add another option like bitcoin lol

[between gold and bank deposits] --why do have to invest in something that can be continuously printed by the government like fiat currency, imo saving paper money is ridiculous, the thing that keeps happening is losing value over the years, and also the result of inflation.  while gold, well the amount is limited and the circulation of money there is quite fast, apart from that the majority of people still really love gold even gold is still the primadonna for women, this is what makes gold quite immune to inflation.  i invested in gold before getting to know bitcoin and when i got to know bitcoin i invested 60% in bitcoin : 40% in gold.
Rather than investing into fiat, it is good choice to go with gold. Throughout history the importance of gold can be seen and the goodness relies on how we make use of it. Women love gold and the same serves as an investment. This is two in one against the inflated fiat. I should've invested in bitcoin, but my major investments were on gold. This is all because of the choice of using it as collateral to get loans when there is an immediate need for money.

Well, for your information, stake is not the only casino that does not necessarily ask users for kyc verification before the user is allowed to deposit and play, majorly every online casino on this forum only ask kyc from user when the user is withdrawing an amount of money that is over the limit to an amount they accept for non kyced users.

I think you have not heard the update, afaik KYC is now mandatory for new accounts. They started to implement it since last year if I remember it correctly. I've heard this information from new players especially new players who are from the same country as me. For old users, it is still not mandatory as old users are  offered to do KYC for extra bonuses. For now, whenever there is a question related to KYC then we have 2 different answers. 1st is that it is not mandatory for old players and 2nd is that it is mandatory for new players. However, it is correct that casino reserve the right to ask KYC especially if it is clearly mentioned in their ToS.
Even for the old players the terms and conditions were updated. In that it is clearly mentioned Stake have got all rights to request KYC when required. So, even for the old players there'll be KYC check when something found wrong with their activities. While getting into Stake, even the old players get to see the terms and conditions which needs to be agreed to enter the platform.

What are you verifying LOL



[The talkimg seems freezing on my browser, I guess I know the possible reason.]

Back to the topic. I don't think I have any motivation left to continue on the pool but I am going to make sure I have picked rest of the matches.

Its already lost. I'm alongside of you. The top 3 are in good competence. The worst round for me had passed. I was able to have just one point from round 7. Big disappointment. Until then I was somehow close with the participants. Now that's a big difference between the first position and me. Lets see in the ODI World Cup prediction pool. Cheesy Cheesy

Delhi Capital's performance was very good from the beginning and the end was also very good. Although Delhi Capital's batting has performed very well, their points are at the bottom due to which they will not reach the final knockout even if they win. But Punjab Kings started with fall of wickets and they lost by huge runs in the last minute and the number of wickets also fell. But I think Delhi Capitals good bowling performance forced Punjab Kings to lose at the last minute.
Liam Livingstone played great for Punjab team, he scored 94 runs in just 48 balls with 9 sixes and 5 fours.  But unfortunately he got out.  If he could have played a little longer, he might have won the match. If another player like Liam Livingstone and Taide played a little better, it would have been easy for them to win the match. they were played very well by all the Delhi players.  And collected very good runs in every over
It is an unlucky day for Punjab kings team. Taide was building the partnership and he was retired hurt at the wrong time. Further Liam Livingstone performed well, but he wasn't able to make it a winning match. The runrate wasn't that bad from the beginning and they took off late. Bowlers were really well, but the pressure situation easily change the outcome.
787  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you like commission job or salary base job? on: May 17, 2023, 04:28:14 PM
I prefer commission based jobs, because we'll get paid only if we work for it. We need to set targets and run to achieve it. Only based on what we've contributed to the business we'll be rewarded. We need to keep ourselves motivated only then it is possible to achieve great heights.

Professional job is good for the girl and boy who doesn't want to explore as well as doesn't want to take risks. With professional job these days the job pressure is high as the manpower isn't available for what they require. For people who lead a simple life with what is available, professional job is the best choice.

Punjab Kings vs Delhi Capitals Today's 64th Match between these two teams has already started. Punjab Kings won the toss and decided to bowl. Delhi Capitals came to bat. They scored 94 runs in 10.2 overs. Delhi Capitals lost 1 wicket.  Gulo is not able to perform well in bowling. Delhi Capitals team batsman David Warner is out with 46 runs off 31 balls.
Finally Delhi have batsmen have played well. Good opening partnership came between Warner and Prithvi Shaw. After the opening batsmen wickets, Rossouw recorded his debut 50+ runs in IPL. His contribution of 82 runs is big and it helped Delhi Capitals set a target of 213 runs. Punjab Kings would play well, and I expect good performance to come from Liam Livingstone. Lets see whether Punjab Kings will keep its hope of reaching playoff.
789  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Indian Premier League #IPL on: May 17, 2023, 02:20:29 PM
Punjab Kings vs Delhi Capitals match will be played today. However, Delhi Capitals will be eliminated before reaching the knockout stage as they have no chance of going to the quarter finals even if they win today's match. Delhi Capitals will get another match after that but they have no chance even if they win the matches. Because they are at the bottom of the points table and have the least points. And can never advance with these points, but even if they win two matches, there is no chance of going to the knockout stage. So Delhi Capitals will be eliminated from the IPL 2023 series as they could not progress due to their poor performance. If Punjab Kings can win today's match, they will increase the points in the points table but they may not get a chance to go to the knockout stage.

This match is not important for Delhi. Because Delhi has no chance of qualifying for the knockout round. But the match is very important for Punjab Kings. Because the team still has a chance to qualify for the knockout round. Punjab Kings managed to get 12 points in 12 matches. If they win today's match by a big margin, Punjab Kings will be able to move to the fourth place in the points table.
Punjab won the previous match against Delhi by 31 runs. Punjab won easily even after giving a target of only 168 runs. I think Punjab will win today's match too. Karun Delhi's batsmen's performance is very erratic.
Very important match for Punjab Kings. Two matches left for Punjab Kings and they need thrashing win in both the matches. Punjab Kings won the toss and chosen to bowl. Delhi Capitals have begun good, Warner and Prithvi Shaw have opened the innings. In 4 overs Delhi Capitals have reached 35 without losing wicket. With this scoring surely Delhi Capitals can make 200+ runs, but when the opening order falls automatically wickets falls.

Today is the final day for cricket in Southeast Asian Games. In T10 format, the gold medal match will be played between Philippines and Thailand (with the latter being the strong favorites to win gold), while the bronze medal match will be played between Cambodia and Malaysia. All the four teams are almost entirely comprised of native players. In T20 format, Thailand won the gold yesterday (defeated Indonesia). Malaysia ended up with the bronze medal after they defeated Singapore. Finals for ODI format was held on 13th may, and Thailand won the gold, followed by silver for Indonesia and bronze for Malaysia.
Cricket in Southeast Asian Games really helps in the improvement of women's cricket. We need more sporting organisations authorise and give opportunity for the women's cricket, because the popularity of men cricket is far high compared to the women's cricket. In recent years there is good progress, and the same need to continue.
791  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin - what is your plan when we reach $100k? on: May 16, 2023, 11:54:40 PM
My plan is to have atleast 1BTC in my wallet when the price reaches $100k. Considering the price at the moment it looks reachable, and we need to completely focus on it limiting unwanted expenses and investing on bitcoin. Surely the savings we do know in bitcoin gonna give back good rewards in the long term.

Same time the market is highly unpredictable, even with the upcoming halving we can experience $100k. This is how the market moves. With time we were able to see good rise in the adoption and acceptance of bitcoin. So, we need to be prepared all time to face the unpredictable.

Rohit is a nice guy! He would gracefully retire from international cricket after the World Cup.
I agree overall Rohit is an incredibly nice guy that's why he got the tag of Brohit but at the same he did get irritated when Hardik got the T-20 captaincy for bilaterals, not at the management or Hardik but at broadcasters, when they portrayed the T-20 team is under Hardik.
Rohit used to be a different player earlier. Now he wasn't able to go for such shots. Maybe it can be the captaincy pressure. The broadcasters portraying the team under Hardhik is pure business, because the media needs viewers. In today's match he played good, but he isn't that confident with his shots.
793  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Indian Premier League #IPL on: May 16, 2023, 11:44:59 PM
The tension is tremendous and the atmosphere is intense with only 11 runs needed off of 6 balls. Watch to see who wins this suspenseful competition.
Finally it was Lucknow Super Giants to win the match. Mumbai Indians batsmen Cameroon Green and Tim David was able to score just 6 runs from the last over of Moshin Khan. It was Moshin Khan who completely disappointed the Mumbai Indians as 11 runs in the last over is an easy target for players like Cameroon Green and Tim David.

With this loss once again the Mumbai Indians team is under pressure to win the next match against SRH for its Playoff entry. Mumbai Indians were down in runrate to other teams having same points, which have narrowed the chance and depend on other teams winning for its playoff entry.

With the Al-Nassr team's win against Al-Ta'ee the points have come closer between the first and second position. Ronaldo and Talisca have scored at the second half of the match. The team followed the defensive technique in the first half and both weren't able to make goals.

In the other match between Al-Hilal and Al-Ittihad, the match was completely under the control of Al-Ittihad from the very beginning. Maybe it is the unlucky moment that turned the match and let Al-Hilal team have a goal at the additional time.

Today's win from Al-Nassr and the draw from Al-Ittihad have narrowed the difference in points between the first two positions on the points table. This makes the upcoming matches on 24th of this month more interesting as Al-Nassr to face strong contender Al-Shabab and Al-Ittihad to face the last on the points table Al-Batin.

Gujarat Titans are the only team confirmed for the playoffs leaving the second spot up for grabs. The excitement lies in the uncertainty of which team will secure that coveted spot.
My random prediction is that MI will lose against LSG today even though they look like they can chase down any score while CSK will win the next match and claim the second spot later on.

The remaining two spots will be taken by LSG and RCB. MI will probably get screwed thanks to RCB coming from behind.
I will 100% blame the poor batting performance behind Mumbai Indians' defeat in today's match. In particular, Mumbai Indians scored only 3 runs in the 12th over, only 1 run in the 13th over, only 6 runs in the 16th over, only 9 runs in the 18th over despite getting several extra runs including a no ball, only 5 runs in the 20th over Collected which was enough for Mumbai Indians to lose the match. Here Cameron Green comes towards the end and scores only 4 runs from six balls and he does not score any runs from multiple balls. I will only blame him for the defeat of Mumbai Indians.
Agreed, the team that were able to reach 100 runs in the 11th over unable to score another 77 runs in 56 balls is really poor batting performance. Simple, the team is much depending on few players. I haven't gone into the statistics, but in most of the Matches in which Suryakumar Yadav played well is a win for Mumbai Indians. Today even with the best batsmen on the crease and unable to win scoring 11 runs in the last over is a big disappointment for the Mumbai Indians team supporters.
796  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A new milestone: 1M addresses hold 1 Bitcoin on: May 15, 2023, 09:44:32 PM
Thats a big number. Having one bitcoin is really big thing. It can be considered as investment, holding or whatever. For what they've achieved during the years we can expect more people getting aware of it. When the holding increases we can experience the increase in the adoption. This gives the common holders to stay positive and make use of each and every opportunity. Majority of the wallet owners seems to be between 25 and 40 years of age.

Quite often we were able to experience the changes happening in the market out of the volatility. Some state that the price will stabilize beyond certain point, in real-time it is highly impossible as the demand to supply market continues on its track.

SRH have lost the match by 34 runs. One more match left against Mumbai Indians which is an important match for Mumbai Indians to qualify for the playoff. Most of the time teams that have got eliminated used to play major role in other teams move to the next round. In such way SRH could make some twist and turn, though it is out of this season's IPL.
I don't think that in this season Sunrisers Hyderabad will be able to qualify the playoff. Mumbai Indians are one of strong performer team in this season . Sunrisers Hyderabad have lost with Mumbai Indians before, I don't think that Sunrisers Hyderabad have the ability stand against the batsmen of Mumbai Indians. So I want to say that I have no hope for Sunrisers Hyderabad in this IPL season.
SRH is out of the playoff. It have got two more matches, one against RCB and the other one against Mumbai Indians. In the 12 matches played SRH have won 4 matches. Even if the remaining two matches were won the points will reach 12 and the run rate is on the negative side. The fourth positioned LSG is having 13 points. At any circumstances SRH won't be able to reach 13 points. This confirm that the entry for the playoff is closed for SRH. Maybe it can start its preparation for the upcoming season.
798  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2022/2023 on: May 15, 2023, 08:00:06 PM
The Barce is a team with great potential. They recently won the La Liga and the players in the club are world-class. Messi still has the quality and strength but his greatest asset will be experience. Barca will benefit from Messi. But the biggest problem might be how to manage Messi because he is a big player. Currently, Robert Lewandowski is the bride of Madrid, therefore signing of Messi can breed personality class between these top players. I suggest that Messi should move to Saudi Arabia or the US and make more money.  He will still fit into the style and class of Barca but there is a new king. The rumored Al-Hilal's £522miliion contract is too enticing to reject.
The Barcelona game pattern complements Leo Messi's approach. Xavi Hernandez would love to have Messi in his squad next season because he has good taste and his presence will raise the spirit of the other players. He is a leader and captain who has played football for a long time and will pass on his knowledge to the players. Leo Messi is discreet on his next move, I guessed he would want to keep it that way, inother not to attract more bids from other european clubs, the fact that he is the finest player in the world and has good footing on the ball.
the president of barcelona is very confident that messi will choose barcelona over al hilal but if i become messi who has won all the trophies including the world cup then money is my ultimate goal at the end of my career as a footballer. al hilal dares to give messi a salary of up to 400 million euros per year, that is truly an extraordinary figure, while barcelona cannot promise anything including a high salary to messi so if messi chooses al hilal, that is very humane.
For the purpose of argument we can say that we'll prefer money as the ultimate, but the reality is different. If we were really Messi we will be thinking of different factors, money stands at the very last place. I state based on his earnings till date. What he had earned is more than enough for his generation. He'll perform really well, but the inner mind will surely have opposite thoughts if I wasn't able to perform good once after the contract. So, we can't think same as what he does. Lets wait for him to announce something officially.

I think the entire debate about the best timezone for sports betting is not really worth talking about in detail. The events are scheduled and it does not really matter what timezone you decide to place your bets in. If anything the only reason for choosing timezones for sports betting is out of some superstitious belief that it will somehow influence the outcome of your bet or make you luckier/unluckier. Seems a bit strange to me, but people become superstitious over any tiny little thing. There are such naive people in the world... Roll Eyes

Bet whenever you like. The best time to bet is when you have done your research and you have a clear head.
As said it is all about the gamblers timezone. The importance needs to be given for the data gathering through which the outcome of the game/match can be predicted. At times it is possible to see the odds varying higher. Maybe that can be chosen as the right time than considering the timezone. Personally I make the prediction on the winner of the match earlier and prefer live betting. This in particular is to have better odds on the predicted team. I don't think people follow superstition while choosing the odds, I've heard they give importance to the dress they wear.

Disappointed with the performance from Ireland. Despite having the home advantage, they lost the series 2-0 (with the first match washed out as a result of rain).
Ireland had the home advantage, which is noticeable in the result of the match. They lost both matches by getting close to the victory. It was like a home ground for Ireland, but the stadium was filled with the supporters of Bangladesh. Anyway, the performance of Ireland was a lot better than before. They lost the series pathetically when they visited Bangladesh.
Home ground advantage most of the time help teams in hard situation. Maybe Bangladesh have improved its performance overseas. First match and the second match were very near. In the second match we were able to see the home ground advantage, but the fall of wickets made Ireland lose the match.
And in the spin department, both Andy McBrine and George Dockrell failed miserably.
The spin department didn't perform badly at all. Andy McBrine bowled badly in the second match only. McBrine and Dockrell bowled very well in the 1st and 3rd ODI. Ireland fielding section was a bit poor.
In the second match each and every bowler had the regular bowling economy around 7rpo. The worst part they weren't able to break partnership and take wickets at regular time gap. Bangladesh is more experienced than Ireland which too a reason for the lose of the matches.
