The first match of the season for Quinton but he hardly looked rusty, his partner Mayers is not far away either and doing his job consistently. Mind you, the latter was filling for the former as De Kock was unavailable at the start due to national duties.
The way Mayers and Quinton De Kock started it looked like Lucknow Super Giants might win the match but the momentum of the match turned upside down after the opening pair broke. However, the performance of De Kock in the first match of this year's IPL 2023 in tomorrow's match is really commendable. But his 70 in the first innings will be a matter of regret for the Lucknow Super Giants as his score would have been memorable if he could have won the match tomorrow.
The first wicket fell at 88 runs. Second wicket fell at 114 runs. From there match momentum turned towards Gujarat Titans. In each and every match Rashid Khan used to have his contribution.

In yesterday's match after the wicket of Kyle Mayers it was Quinton de Cock who kept the momentum. Rashid Khan took the wicket and broke the momentum. At this point Hooda, Stoinis and Pooran failed. Most matches in which Pooran had performed used to be a win for Lucknow Super Giants. In the last 5 matches LSG won just a match, one match ended with no result. Three matches ended with loss, and still it stands at the third position on the table.

This is just a way to attract the beginners. Initially it serve as a gaming platform where users enjoy gaming and accumulating coins. Further the win out of the games will trigger them to get into real deposit and try winning. We used to see more such platforms where things happen in the similar way. Tokens will be allocated and can be withdrawn to fiat only after reaching a big volume of tokens. To achieve the specific number the gambler needs to spend lots of time same as accumulation of Satoshi in the past. Some even request deposit of fund to withdraw the winnings. For some time period they work legit and beyond certain level it gets to be scam.

Not on the bitcoin, but there is a need of financial literacy commonly. All around the world it is possible to financial experts, but when we take the basic understanding the common people have around we'll see a big percentage. Mostly people are got used to their professional career, beyond that they don't think as well as calculate much. Even before the existence of technology atleast people make some calculation while paying and during the time of transactions. Now the digital payments have stopped it, as we just tend to type the amount and send it.

The 52nd Match of Indian Premier League has already started today. Rajasthan Royals vs Sunrisers Hyderabad these two teams came to the field to play today. Rajasthan Royals came to bat first. They gave a target of 214 runs in 20 overs. The performance of the batsmen of Rajasthan Royals team was very good.  Now Sunrisers Hyderabad will enter the field to bat. Now if Sunrisers Hyderabad can perform well in batting then the match will be very intense.
It was so exciting match, both team show his potential Rajasthan top order were on fire, the phenomenal inning of Jos Buttler almost nailed it opponent defeat but Hyderabad batter forced Thier bowler to leak runs through his performance which cost Hyderabad a brutal defeats.
I think it's a bad day for Buttler because he not only lose his century but a high scoring match too, but in mind he deserves applause for his performance because he has done what he can do...
Both the teams have performed well. Myself expected this to be a win for Rajasthan Royals, fortunately everything had turned towards Sunrisers Hyderabad. The best thing I see with Sunrisers Hyderabad is their performance coming out of each and every player. No player scored 70+ runs, the final support from Glenn Phillips made SRH win the thriller match at the last ball. Jos Butler supposed to score his century and missed which is a disappointment. The man who hadn't performed well on few matches have come back to form.

I don't understand why things are so unspeakably hard to people. I couldn't hard a good feelings for some days after thinking of what must have trans-led this suffering of financial hardship in societies. Money is rare this days, am going through a lot but I just hope things well and better soon. Is not really funny here.

My children are at home chase from school, I could not pay fees again. What could be the cause of scarcity of cash?
Maybe the main thing was caused by the chaos over the covid 19 disaster which made one's economic turnover quite low at that time and many people lost their jobs at that time. But now it seems that everything is fine and I believe that money will be easily found by working and applying to various companies to improve your finances.

Apart from that, what I can tell you is to save from the income you have because it will be very important when we experience a crisis that we did not expect beforehand.  Besides that, keep working hard and never give up, I don't think the results will betray us.
Covid is one of the reason. We had the war between Ukraine and Russia which continues, which lead to food crisis and other economic issues. Lack of oil supply and other basic requirements of the people increased in price.

During the Covid people were in the home, due to lockdown and majority worked from home. By the time spending is limited and we weren't able to understand the rise in the price of necessities. Once people got out of home we were able to feel the difference. In some part of the world improper governance is causing economic downturn and let's hope the best will happen soon.

The choice of investment depends upon the users. It is always good to invest, investment is made at the right time we can enjoy the profit and the earliest. Wrong time of investment let's people to wait for longer time period. People prefer investing the profits withdrawing the capital amount, which is to stay on the safer side as investments were subject to risk and we don't know when situation changes.

With every form of investment more the capital more will be the profitability. Based on this investment needs to be done, whether we want better profit or we need to stay on the risk free side.

Going back through a time machine doesn't seem to the right way of technology. It'll disturb the perfect functioning of any technology. It is good to get going along with the realtime and get adopted to it. People say that they will get back to the past and buy a lot of bitcoins. It is ok but sure the limitations and the goodness will surely  disturbed as it'll create miscalculations.

Whether it is bitcoin or any form of investment is normal people wish getting back to the past and having investment at the right time. We should think of the reality and act accordingly, which means even the ongoing market is an possibility which needs to be used.
828  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Big is the online gambling industry today? on: May 06, 2023, 09:31:14 PM
I think the online gambling  industry  is already a multi million dollar industry  because most times i could  only  imagine how much money is been lost to the casino  on a daily basis and I have no option but to conclude  that the company is already averaging over multi million dollars.
I basically  didn't need a prophet  or maybe a Google to confirm  how big the online gambling  industry  except I'm not credible gambler that I wouldn't get to find out nd one of the major ways this industry bis matching  up is through strategic marketing and promotions as well as endorsement.

Considering the volume of online casinos, I believe it should already be a Billion industry.
There’s a lot of big crypto casinos that are still doing good and that alone represents a hundred Million already. Promotions of crypro gambling are more effective compare to the traditional casinos since I can’t find any local casinos that have promotions online even if they are legal. Crypto gambling becomes more popular day by day, expect for this industry to grow more.
Sometimes it looks like there is no fiat based gambling sites used around, because these days it is very rare to see the promotion of fiat based gambling sites. Quite often we can come across cryptocurrency accepted gambling sites promotion. People are getting much used to it. Many countries legalizing gambling is a cause for the recent year's growth reaching the peak. I feel like, someday in the future there arises a situation where it is possible to gamble only using cryptocurrency. Covid helped a lot to the gambling industry when rest of the industry were struggling to survive.
829  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2022/2023 on: May 06, 2023, 09:24:25 PM
~snip~
Before they signed Cristiano Ronaldo, most people around the world, especially those in Al-Nasr, were unaware of the saudi team. However, since then, they have gained more recognition, and now whenever they play a match, whether it be in a league, friendly, or any other type of competition, people watch them from all over the world. They play well, and their teamwork is evident in every match, but sometimes their lack of expert players in certain positions of the field causes them to lose. I think that these teams became more well-known when Cristiano Ronaldo joined them. The reason why many people now support Al-Nasr rather than the team is because of Ronaldo, the team's new signing, who has raised them above their previous standing as a footballing powerhouse.

Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr splash is big league, but let's not overlook their previous triumphs. Nine titles before his arrival – not too shabby! It's like someone suddenly famous after an Oscar win, but they were already a powerhouse.

And now? Ronaldo's arrival electrified the team and league. Messi joining in? That's an epic superhero duo – except it's football legends, skyrocketing the league to stratospheric levels!

Aristotle said, "Pleasure in the job puts perfection in the work." Ronaldo and Messi's passion is infectious. Their zeal will spark local talent, and who knows? Maybe we'll witness the rise of the next Saudi Arabian football sensation!
Even before the presence of Ronaldo Al-Nassr is one among the lead team to win title. Addition of Ronaldo made the team even stronger. With his presence the team and the entire league have gained importance and the viewer base have increased drastically. More popular players into the league makes it even more successful. This is one among the league that have got good history. Already Saudi Arabia is highly supportive for football compared to many other Asian countries. Upon the same it doesn't look to be surprising to see the next football sensation coming from Saudi Arabia.

tennis player Anisimova confirms she is taking an indefinite break from playing tennis due to mental issues/stress. the player at only 21 yeara has achieved moderate successes in her career, and is in the top 50.
 at these levels it is really difficult to keep up with the " pace" and visibility reached.

https://www.wtatennis.com/news/3322468/anisimova-announces-indefinite-break-from-tennis
Good decision from the player at the right time. At the young age getting into mental issues/stress needs to be addressed. Success comes, but our health needs to be given utmost preference. She gained attention at the Rollands Garros on winning against defending champion Halep and she was just 17 years of age. She withdrew from the tournament later due to the death of her father. Such incidents too could've been hurting her. She had also shared it on her Instagram.

831  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Never Expect Consistent Winnings From Gambling - A Lesson I Learnt. on: May 06, 2023, 08:52:42 PM
This is stupidity at it's finest, how can one leave his job for gambling? Something that doesn't rely on your skill or hard work, gambling is completely a gamble, hundred percent on luck, how can one take this as a month salary earning job? LMAO

I don't feel pity for this fellow or anyone who do the same, there is no other words to describe this than stupidity, he deserves everything that happened to him, he is also greedy but that's normal, something you can learn the hard way but losing your job because you believe that gambling is the answer is crazy.
Even the greedy gambler won't do such mistake. When someone is new to gambling we can see similar incident taking place, because they have an understanding through gambling we can be rich. Spending for few days itself gives the perfect understanding, it is really hard to make big money or lead life with gambling. Everytime we can't be lucky and any circumstances it won't assure consistent earning.

As said one can be felt pity, when something is done without proper knowledge or understanding. A person leaving his job is the extreme of being a fool. Atleast he could've sustained in the job and spend on gambling.
832  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Women's Cricket Prediction & Discussion - T20 & ODI on: May 06, 2023, 10:45:05 AM
Whether to consider this to be fun or feel bad on the performance. It was good that Cricket got added to the Southeast Asian Games. Philippines Women team have scored just 9 runs in the group stage T20 match and Thailand Women's team have won the match by 10 wickets in 0.4 overs. Unable to score two digit score by a team in T20 cricket is really worse.
833  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: May 05, 2023, 11:15:06 PM
We were not winning it anyway lol. Let's see if Rohit stays fit, he's injury prone as well.

Ajinkya will walk into the playing XI so batting looks okay on paper. The bowling department looks tricky to me now as 5th bowler is missing.

2007 is a distant memory but we do have an excellent example of (2021 BGT) Melbourne, Sydney and Gabba.



Who knows who will win? Let's wait for the test match to start first. Grin

Rohit Sharma has already lost his form which is more concerning. I guess if he gets injured, the selectors have to completely restructure the team. I am waiting for the BCCI to come up with a replacement.

About Jaydev Unadkat they are saying that he might be fit by that time. If he is not then I think looking at his present performance in the IPL Ishant Sharma can replace him.

For KL Rahul I expect out of these four players one might get this golden opportunity. Ishan Kishan, Rituraj Gaikwad, Sarfaraz Khan & Vihari. I have major doubts about Sarfaraz Khan looking at his present performance but Bengal Cricket Board has been lobbying hard for this guy and Dada too.


The inclusion in the place of Rahul seems to be Sarfaraz Khan who had been good in the recent Ranji trophies. He had scored 1910 runs with an average of 136 scoring seven centuries and 11 fifties. As he isn't added to the squad, he could've got lined up for the upcoming test matches after WTC final against Australia.
834  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Indian Premier League #IPL on: May 05, 2023, 10:58:44 PM
Rajasthan Royals batted first and scored 118 runs.
It's really disappointing performance for a team like Rajasthan Royals, Thier batting order collapse too badly against the Afghani two spinner Rashid and Noor. I think such a kind of low scoring and one sided match bored us. But anyway a round of applause for Gujrat for dominating such a strong batting team and continue his hold on the top of the IPL table.
I think in victory of Gujrat Pitch play an important role by providing help to spinner..
The disappointing moment is the unwanted runout of Jaiswal. Maybe he should've been more careful running against the midfield. Once after his wicket consecutive wicket fall happened. None were able to stand wicket and score runs against the spinners. At some critical situation Pooran is expected to perform, but he went to the pavilion unable to make a review as the team already lost both the reviews. Anyhow Gujarat Titans have confirmed the playoff entry. Rajasthan Royals were in compulsion to win every matches.
835  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: May 05, 2023, 10:52:57 PM
I think the Pakistan team are favorite to clean sweep the series with 5-0. Let's wait for the final ODI between the two teams.
I am also thinking this. Because the performance of Pakistan is looking very good. And Pakistan is looking more strong. In the previous post I predicted that Pakistan can make 300+ runs. And I was hoping that the Pakistan will win this match. And again I am thinking that the next match also will be in the favor of Pakistan. Because the batting line is strong but the bowling line is more strong than batting. Pakistan surprised again. Congratulations to Pakistan. Smiley
The batting line-up is really strong that every player is making runs. Earlier we used to see the Pakistan team depend on few players and in this series things have changed. New Zealand is under pressure to win atleast a match, but it looks like the last ODI to be a win for Pakistan. Finally the Pakistan spinner is able to take 4 wickets. Maybe Usama Mir can be trained to fill the spin bowling position as Pakistan lacks it.
836  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you blame someone for your gambling losses? on: May 05, 2023, 10:46:27 PM
As far as gambling is concern nobody is to be blamed in losses of an individual bettor take for instance if you play sports bet you know when choosing an odd nobody directs you on what to do first of all you consider to choose the team that is in their peak at the moment, when the fail to deliver are you to blame anybody when you know that you personally make your selection.
I get your point mate and the truth  be told that most times as a person,  there have been some cases that at some point, we tend to regret our losses and which we made another option rather than the very own that was chosen.
Whatever the case might be, mkst gamblers if not all already know that we are solely  responsible  for all our actions but there are cases when we wish we can blame anyone  for our losses.
Ofc nobody directs us or uses gun to make deposit on online casino but since everything especially online banking is one click away we can make quick decisions to chase big wins for entertainment. Some gamblers love to blame other people mostly close circle around him for losing big amount on online slots, I have seen such debats on live streaming platforms. We have to understand risks on casinos and never play with the amount we can't afford to lose as responsible gamblers.
It is common with gambling that we need to spend what we can afford to loss. When we gamble based on someone's suggestion and loss it hurts, in particular when the lost bet amount is high. I never exceed a bet amount of $10 when placing based on someone's suggestion. In specific those used to be just for fun with friends (going with their prediction).
837  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I am only trying to stay safe by gambling less on: May 05, 2023, 10:37:01 PM
I am not a gambling addict but some friends are making me look like one because I gamble less and they gamble more, it all started when we got into an argument that investing in Bitcoin is not the same as gambling, my friends who are gamblers, not full-time but more of a gambler than I am, are claiming that there is no difference between investing and gambling, they said if all you doing is investing money on Bitcoin you are no different to those who are gambling in a casino.

Whatever thing you overdo is bad and could lead you to addiction, let alone when it comes to gambling or trading, we really need to do it with deciplined mind, if we really want to be profitable. One should have rules, state or put down those rules and how to follow it, which should involve the total number of games one should play in a day/week , number of loses which you would have and consider taking a break in order to avoid excessive betting.
Agreed anything beyond limit gonna worsen the situation. For this reason it is good to set our limits and move accordingly. Rather than gambling less we should know when to take a break and when to concentrate on something else. People easily gets addicted when it comes to gambling, so we should have the learning along with our experience. Most of the gamblers get out of addiction after experiencing hard days out of it. Such scenario can be avoided going through the experience shared by different users.

Bangladesh Women's team have played the second ODI against Sri Lanka women's team. The match overs were reduced to 30 overs. Sri Lanka won the toss and chosen to bat first. In the 30 overs, Sri Lanka have scored 186/5 runs. Sri Lanka women's team had strong opening. Atapattu and Madavi played good and Bangladesh Women isn't strong enough to chase the target and ended the innings losing every wicket for 128 runs. Ranasinghe had five wicket haul and the team leads the ODI series 2-1.

The expected results have come favouring the Al-Nassr fans. Unexpected turn happened at the last moment of the match. Now the match of Al-Nassr against Al-khaleej gets importance, winning the match will level the points with Al-Ittihad. An opportunity got, but the pressure gets built as each and every match need to be won. The highest paid athlete have got a chance to prove his ability and make his team the champion. Lets see whether it is Al-Nassr, Al-Ittihad or Al-Shabab who are in close competence.
840  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: May 04, 2023, 07:09:28 AM
I was not happy with rain gods interfering in an important game yesterday, CSK bowlers did a good job in restricting LSG to 125 runs when the rain started pouring like cats & dogs. If the match had been played full then CSK would have been the number 2 team on the point table.

The second match a far better than the first one. Livingstone and Sharma were delivering what every IPL fan wanted to see. The second half was more interesting as we were again able to witness SKY doing what he does best. Rohit was unlucky but Kishan surprised me with his 75 runs in just 41 balls. It seems MI has been lately chasing very well.

The two weakest teams will be playing against each other today. They both are very inconsistent with batting and bowling, Harry Brooks had the fasted century this season but after that, he has been struggling. The only player worth watching today is Riku Singh.
I think this is the first rain interruption match in 2023 IPL season. Chennai could've got one more point, but the rain stopped it. Simply its a lucky day for LSG. The target is just 125 runs and surely Chennai Super Kings would've won the match. In recent days the low scoring targets weren't chased which also need to be considered.

The second match is interesting as both the teams were good enough to score big runs. It looks like an unlucky day, because over the last few matches SRH is performing good and the bowling used to be poor. The match against LSG is a proof. The match against CSK is won finally, inbetween SRH was to win easier. The competence is going high as the team in the 7th position and 2nd position have won five matches each after playing ten matches. Lets see who all gonna qualify for the playoff.
