961  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My dream is coming close. on: August 19, 2023, 11:12:13 AM
I know it is a big or uncommon goal to achieve considering my current income. I have a big dream of owning one Bitcoin before a certain period. So when people are bothered that the price of Bitcoin is dropping, I am seeing it as an opportunity to go closer to my dream. I am in no way happy that the price is dropping but one Bitcoin will always be one Bitcoin, no matter the price today. If you are sure of bitcoin, you will not be concerned about the price today because the price in the future will always exceed the current price.I have learned from this forum that there is no need to dump your coin because of FUD, this distraction will come and go. So I am no longer reading those blogs or social media that is promoting this this fear that will make me dump my small holding and abandon my dream. My focus is to own one Bitcoin.

Hope one day you will be able to hold 1 one bitcoin. But in the long run, many people's perspectives change their minds. Moreover, it is not possible to say what will be the future and what circumstance you will face. But if you have faith and can act accordingly then owning a Bitcoin will not be difficult if the market continues in this condition. But since there is a big chance of significant growth in Bitcoin's value in the upcoming year, everyone needs to hold Bitcoin as much as possible during this bearish period. A Bitcoin dump can be considered a potential opportunity for those who want to hold Bitcoin for the long term.

I will agree with you because all are gambling and you may be lucky to get wining for a particular gambling platform you are not familiar with, if i should have a chance I will like to study all the gambling site and make sure that I try my luck in each of them by having a particular amount of money I will put in any other so that I will experience their kind of gambling, but what i notice when doing such, is that it will consume you more money and you may likely to lose or gain.

Gambling on multiple casino will not increase your chances of winning on those casino since there's no strategy that can help you win when you play slots games or dic games. Any game that's based on luck doesn't have a strategy that'll help you to win when you play.

You might lose all your bets on those casino therefore it's better to stick to one casino that you have been using and verified them to be reputed casino that'll not freeze your account when you win big or accused you of offends that you didn't commit just to lock your account.

The one time I can see this working in your favor is when you bet on sport games and you use two different sportsbook to place opposite bets and you win which ever way the games goes but you'll still be at lost because you can't win both bets when they're played differently.
The truth is that there are no guarantees in gambling. We can choose different gambling platforms but we can't win if luck doesn't create positive behavior. However, if some gambling platforms cheat that are different. After all a gambler needs to do is exercise caution. Must be well observed especially before registration. Well establish casino they will never freeze gamblers money without a valid reason. If they found any in consistence or abnormal behavior, then they can be asked for the information and later they will try to solve the issue.

In my perspective gambling is not a crime but excessive gambling is not acceptable. If a parent knows about their child that he has become addicted to gambling, it can have a negative effect on them. Because when a child becomes addicted to gambling, they may steal their parents' money to manage their gambling finances. No one is safe if they gamble with their earnings and lose that money, but no parent is safe when a child relies on their parents to make money from gambling. So, I would advise here that if he is not 18 as per the rules then he should not do gambling. and if he is fit for gambling then he must gamble with his own money.
964  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What you will do? on: August 18, 2023, 04:12:45 PM
I think this experience can be found in almost all gamblers. A gambler will definitely feel a sense of boredom when he conducts regular gambling. And when a gambler tries to continue gambling after feeling bored, he loses. To get rid of such situation we must not engage in continuous gambling activities. Those who can take occasional breaks in gambling will be more successful in gambling. A gambler should take regular breaks whether winning or losing. Although sometimes it is difficult to take a break depending on the situation, a gambler must try to take a break.
965  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Success or Fail? - Talking about Gambling as a major income on: August 18, 2023, 04:02:07 PM
I`m playing for fun now. And i had nice profit from gambling before for several months. And i know several men that have the gambling as the main income. But today for me more interesting to spend some money and get fun, than try to win prize. Of course, it doesn`t mean that i`m trying to lose, but i get positive emotions even if lose. It is just like a ticket on football match.

Exactly. Only participate and bet the money you are willing to lose. Once you've taken your side, already assume that you've lost. You're accepting risk and respecting it. Because once you do, you are no longer chasing winners or olympic feat wins. Regardless of whether you win or you lose, you know that it's just a game. There's another one to play, there would be another opportunity to participate in.
Gambling Is all about winning and losing and we can't choose from this since we don't know what the outcome of the bet we have made will look like. Gambling can be so disturbing when we see ourselves keep losing but when we finally get a solution to the reason why we keep losing and we improved in our skills, we can be surprised that consistent profits would engulf us. We just need to keep doing whatbwe know how to do best since luck can come in anytime without us knowing and planning for it.
Only i decide when i stop the game. If i win - i stop when  i have to go. If i lose - i stop when i lose all money, i planned for gambling.
If you can`t stop when you want - it becomes a problem. In such situation it would be better even don`t start the game.
You are right, Having the desire to gamble doesn't need to listen to advice from other people, of course we can enjoy the game, If in gambling we hear too much advice from other people, if we experience defeat, it will certainly make us very disappointed in our game. I totally agree with you, if you can't stop when you want you better gamble another time.
Though in some cases it is said in gambling when one is exposed to repeated losses, one has to consider the advice of others with one's own responsibility. I will certainly consider the advice of others but it must be reasonable. I have to consider my own judgment and what is the difference between me and the gambler who has the high wining ratio at that particular time and then I can take that gambler's advice. But I will agree with others that one should not always bet on depending on others. Again, if a bet is lost on the advice of others, one should not get excited or blame anyone.

Lol Ditto!

In general, all names i came across when i read posts here, Sithara's normally post about random T-20 leagues even random fixtures, mostly associate matches.

At least someone is following T-20 format seriously. All i know about BBL, PSL, The 100 and SA t-20. When it comes to details then I only follow IPL.

LOL.. it is strange that you doesn't consider the Caribbean Premier League in the same level as BBL and PSL. For heaven's sake CPL came much before the PSL and the 100. SA20 is a very recent invention. On top of that, CPL is one of the most popular foreign leagues as far as Indian audience is concerned. And I believe that it has a higher viewer-share compared to either BBL or PSL. Anyway, I keep track of all the T20 leagues around the world and it gives an idea in which way the sport is moving. My prediction is that bilaterals will become history in another 5-6 years and franchise T20 leagues will become more prominent.

Don’t get me wrong, I definitely think that the Caribbean Premier League is definitely one of the better ones. And I can say that because there are not many quality to 20 leagues to be honest. I actually think that the IPL is the best and that IPL has set the level of expectation a lot higher. And that is certainly a problem for the other T-20 league because they will hardly be able to achieve that level. Australia and England are certainly doing a decent job. But I cannot say that for the other T-20 leagues. Caribbean Premier League is definitely not bad. But the fact that West Indies are not able to perform well with their national team does eventually affect the Caribbean T-20 league.

No other T20 league has been able to create such a position like the IPL ‍and we must be kept it separately. The way Indian people love cricket that are really appreciable, they spend more time and money on cricket that is unexampled by any other country. Moreover, they have huge population who are cricket fans. No matter how well Australia or England do in their country, they have not been able to popularize T20 leagues. We recognize that Australia has announced to reduce the number of matches in the last BBL T20 that means they are not very profitable.

Asia Cup is coming soon but not seeing any hype from the broadcasters, atm they are busy with useless bilateral series against Ireland. Guess we'll start seeing some promo during the Ireland series.

And 1 good news for Indian fans, there are some reports coming out that Rishab Pant played in a practice match, not sure about the field but he did come to bat.

The broadcasters doesn't seem happy about the tournament, and it is understandable. The schedule is messed up. Some of the matches are taking place in Pakistan, and some in Sri Lanka. And this just adds complexity to the logistics for broadcasters. On top of that, too many India vs Pakistan matches are scheduled to happen in the next few months (including one in the upcoming Asian Games cricket tournament). BTW, I don't know what India is going to achieve by playing against Ireland. It is going to be a completely one-sided series.
We can't expect this to be one-sided series. If it is an ODI series, then the matches could've been won by India, but with T20 matches played anything could happen. Even the Ireland players are good in chasing targets, against a team like India they'll give the best. T20 match results can change in no time and I believe Ireland will win atleast one match. This isn't going to be one-sided series.
Sometimes, while playing against weaker teams many strong teams suddenly conceded defeat. If India tries to win all the matches of the series then the chances of winning the series are more in their favor. But there is no denying your words. Because if some overs can be done well in T20 games then the result of the match can also be changed. Moreover, there are many records of weaker teams defeating stronger teams in T20 matches. No surprise if India lose one match in 3 match T20 series. But I think India will win every match in this series.

Ireland is now 2-0 ahead in the three-match T20I series against the Dutch women's team. In today's T20I the Dutch women didn't stand a chance against Ireland. The Irish women's team is stronger and easily defeated the Netherlands women in their previous matches. Today, they are the favorites to win that's simple. Even though they lost some wickets and had a lower run rate, I still believe the Ireland team will win comfortably and make it 3-0.
Netherlands Women vs Ireland Women 3rd match of T20 series. Netherlands women won the toss and decided to bat. Collected 116 runs after losing 6 wickets in 20 overs. Netherlands women could not do a good batting performance in today's match. Ireland Women won by 6 wickets on a low target of 117 runs. The Netherlands women's team has been whitewashed. Congratulations to the Ireland women's team.
Congratulations to Ireland woman they have won this series.His batting and bowling performance in all three matches was very good.And it was a huge defeat for Netherland woman ,they did not win even one of the three matches.
As in the first two matches, Netherland woman had some good performances this time but Ireland woman is a very strong team that dominated them both in batting and bowling.
If the performance on the field is not done well, then no strategy will be effective. In the last match, Netherlands won the toss and decided to bowl where they could not overcome Ireland's set target. In today's match, Netherlands won the toss and elected to bat first but they could not prolong their score and thus they lost today's match as well. Iris Zwilling batted well as Netherlands collected 56 runs from her bat. Their total score was 116 but Iris Zwilling alone scored 56 runs. Other batsmen could not show any expected performance in this match.
969  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: As a gambler do you have a potential winning amount limit? on: August 16, 2023, 06:26:24 PM
As for myself i don't have because I will be glad to win as much as possible if the opportunity is presented, but i think the gambling platforms will have that in place but they would have disclose their conditions in their policies or ToS, it is very common that we all have the desire to make win on any amount without limit except if set by the casino, i wouldn't hesitate embracing wining big as such found with winning a jackpot in my gambling experience than setting a limit because everyone needs money if the chance is given to make some or get rich through gambling.
Not just you but almost all gamblers here will want to have no limit on their winnings. Because they are more interested in winning. Many people want to win like jackpot. However, I saw no limit on winnings but a limitation on deposits on various sites before. Where the gambler was given a weekly or monthly limit. But at present there is no such obligation. No gambler wants to be in any bindings. But a gambler must follow a set of rules so that he can conduct responsible gambling.
970  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will the price gets to $60k this year? on: August 16, 2023, 06:15:07 PM
Since the bull is gradually rising, I'd it will reduce the level of inflation controls and policies that will favour the bulls. It will encourage more buy by investors and big time entrepreneurs, surprisely this year bitcoin would have records more subscribers and price stabilities. Looking at many countries revolution of bitcoin like New Zealand, US, El Salvador, China, Africa and so on, if this countries can possibly readjust policies to favour bitcoin by mid year, it will experience excess rising.

But the question is; is it possible for bitcoin to reach $60k by this year? No serious bulls happening currently and if it continues in this little increase probably it will not get anywhere close to $60k. Share your views.
Almost every investor has been waiting for the moment of Bitcoin. Bitcoin will definitely be bullish when that time comes. The number of institutional investors is relatively more than ordinary investors, and on the other hand, various positive news of Bitcoin use is coming from different countries, as a result, Bitcoin will be stronger than before, which will definitely surpass the previous ath and a new ath will be created. Bitcoin is likely to hit $45k by the end of this year. Since it is currently priced at around $30k, if the price rises by 50 percent this year, I think the price of Bitcoin is likely to rise to $45,000 and it is not difficult.

Asia Cup will start from 30 August 2023. But before that we have a series of 3 ODI matches between Afghanistan vs Pakistan which will be started from 22 August. As we all know that Inzmam ul Haqq selected a new squad and they will show their performance in this series. Waiting for this series. And today we are celebrating our Independence day. Smiley
Pakistan has mainly organized such a series to test their mettle against Afghanistan and prepare well for the Asia Cup. Both Pakistan and Afghanistan will be playing in the Asia Cup so their bilateral series before the Asia Cup will undoubtedly fill their lack of preparation.

The three-match ODI series between Pakistan and Afghanistan begins on August 22, but after this series, Pakistan and Afghanistan will not have time to prepare separately for the Asia Cup, so a match against each other will be the best preparation for the two teams.
The Asia Cup is good news for cricket lovers after the three-match ODI series between Afghanistan and Pakistan ends.

The series is going to start on August 22. And I also believe that this is going to be the best preparation for both of them. For Pakistan, I don’t think it is going to be the best preparation. I think it would have been a bit of preparation for Pakistan if they could have played against bigger opponents. But it is what it is. Afghanistan is also not a very bad opponent, to be honest. For Afghanistan, it is definitely going to be a good preparation. Furthermore, dare I opine that Pakistan, fueled by an unwavering determination, shall strive to transcend all expectations within the grand stage of the Asia Cup. After all, they are not going to forget the disrespect of not being able to host the Asia Cup in their country. (the whole Asia Cup tournament)
Had this Asia Cup tournament been held in any country other than Pakistan, Pakistan would never have organized such a bilateral series just before the start of the Asia Cup tournament. While the various teams participating in the Asia Cup tournament are busy planning how to do well in the tournament, Pakistan as the host team is planning a three-match ODI series against Afghanistan right before the Asia Cup. This series between Afghanistan and Pakistan is not as good for Pakistan as it is for Afghanistan as Afghanistan get a chance to play three matches against one of the favorites of the Asia tournament before the start of the tournament which will give them the strength to do well in the Asia Cup tournament.
Different people can clarify their position on this matter in different perspectives. But what I understand is that since they are the host country, they will want to perform at their best in this tournament. From this point of view maybe they can get an advance idea of their current performance before the start of the tournament which we can also think of as a practice series. This series will mark their position for both the teams where they will definitely try to do well. Afghanistan's ODI performance is not very good on the other hand, Pakistan need to clarify what will be their position on the upcoming tournament.

Netherlands Women vs Ireland Women, 2nd T20
Almost 3 hours are left and than the match will be started. Agai here I am pretty sure that the Ireland Women team will win this match easily again. Because they showed a great performance in the last match. According to the last match I am sure that Ireland will clean wash Netherlands women team. And will win the series too.
By observing the opposite team's performance, it is very well understood that the Ireland team managed to score big. Although Netherlands women's team thought that they would have an advantage winning the toss but they could not make any progress. Because Ireland women's team lost all their wickets for just 88 runs while playing a target of 148. Netherlands women's team lost the match by 66 runs. Batting failure of the Netherlands team has been identified as the main problem. Their middle order and lower order batsmen did not perform as expected which led to their loss in the match.

Gambling problems and gambling addictions often lead to deep debt is never good for anyone, gambling is a bigger risk, so it is best for every gambler to avoid debt. Taking out an additional personal loan can make sense in certain situations, but it can have a negative impact on you. Therefore, paying the loan and gambling according to one's ability will reduce the problem even if you lose. Get a second job to pay off debt depending on the primary source of income by working a few extra hours per week, paying off debt is a good decision if you can come up with more money.
It's not easy as you saying, if there's a good or interesting job out there, they will apply for it and then start to work to collecting more money. Since they're lazy to learn a new skill or they're don't know how long they need to keep trying to learn the skill, they choose to make quick money via online. It's why they jump to gambling or trading since they think it's easy to buy low and sell high (trading) or press the spin button (gambling).
Addiction in gambling will eventually lead a gambler to a lower position. The gambler will lose his natural enjoyment of gambling. A gambler does not have to endure any trouble if he loses his money. But when a gambler gambles on debt, he can become bankrupt in a short period of time. Debt will never allow a gambler to gamble normally but will only lead to more losses. A gambler must be more aware on this issue. But if only a gambler can control his greed then he can avoid such situation.

In my view there is less chance for India to win the Asia Cup based on the recent performance. Though it is an ODI the performance of the players doesn't have much of variation. I think one of the small team will make miracles and reach till the finals. I'm not sure about the result of the match.

It's too early to say that India will not reach the finals of the Asia Cup. Yes, India lost to WI in a T20 series but Asia Cup is a different format, a format of ODI with different playing conditions of Asia, which may suit India better.

I think let the Asia Cup start, see how India plays their initial games, see how other teams are performing and then we may be in a position to predict that this Asia cup may or may not be for the Indians. Until then, all the fears and speculations mean no value.
Although India lost the T20 series against West Indies, It will not the same bad performance in the ODI Asia Cup. There is a big difference  between a series game and a tournament. As there will be a big opponent like Pakistan so India will try to impose their maximum effort on the tournament.

Both of team can (Afghanistan and Pakistan) play against a country who is participating in the Asia Cup in this session before the tournament, it is undoubtedly a big opportunity. One can get an early idea of how they will fare, especially in the Asia Cup 2023. Although Pakistan and Afghanistan are divided into two groups, the two teams will be able to further their warm-up in such a series almost a week before the Asia Cup. Pakistan is one of the leading countries in world cricket. Even now their position is better. They have a chance to win this tournament as well if they manage to beat India.
976  Other / Off-topic / Re: Keeping your gambling habit a secret. on: August 14, 2023, 02:41:42 PM
I'm not addicted to gambling because I don't gamble often, maybe I only play 3-4 times a month, and when I gamble, my wife knows it, she also knows that the amount I gamble is in the amount of Only 30$ will not exceed that.

When I run out and lose, I stop immediately, and when I experience luck and at the same time I suddenly win what I'm doing, I stop immediately and I withdraw what I won and I only have 30$ left over I'll try again next time I gamble. So I don't hide or keep a secret when I do gamble.
The only people that I know will have a problem disclosing their gambling activities with their wives are those who are addicted to gambling and spend a lot of money on gambling. How will your wife feel when she sees you wasting money on gambling? There are relevant things in the house that can be done with the money, but if you gamble responsibly and your wife knows that you are just doing that to have fun, then I don't think she is going to complain if she knows that you are a gambler and that you gamble responsibly. The amount some people gamble with is more than the amount they spend on their family members.
There will be no peace in any family if the main earner is addicted to gambling. If a wife observe her husband's gambling ratio is so high and he loss more in gambling she may feel unhappy like her husband and usually the wife does not want her husband to focus more on gambling. I have never seen a wife who encouraged her husband to gamble. No matter what a gambler does throughout the day, no one will accept it if the results of his day's activities come home and affect the family. A gambler should devote enough time to the family as well as fully support the family financially.

Indian T20 team can never be called a bad team just because they are doing badly in this series in T20 but there were several wrong decisions for this team which Hardik Pandya could not control properly. In the T20 series, however, two or three senior players such as Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli were definitely needed. The advice and leadership of senior players is definitely better than the leadership of freshers and they know how to lead the team in times of danger. In yesterday's match as well, Hardik Pandya had several misjudgments in the bowling department which were enough to send India down in yesterday's match.
I don't think it's bad performance from young India team. This is best way to test a new team and India have got a new talent in the form of Talik Varma.
Finally something to cheer about for WI cricket which haven't won a series in recent years. Yesterday match was interrupted 3 times because of rain but still we have a full match.
It isn't a bar performance from young India team. It bounced after losing the first two matches, and brought back the hope of winning the series as the young Indian team won the 3rd & 4th matches. The 4th match was massive win and the same increased the expectation over the team. In the final match the performance from the Indian players were good, while the West Indies team performance is better than before.
The Indian youngsters had a poor performance as they lost their first and second matches. But when the third and fourth matches were won brilliantly by India's youngsters, there was hope that they might clinch the final. However, when the Indian youngsters entered the field for the fifth match, despite their good performance, they could improve on the batting performance. Meanwhile, West Indies bowled and batted well to put India under a lot of pressure in their bid to win the series. And India lost the series in the final match due to their poor performance and West Indies won the series brilliantly.

As India showed dominance in the third and fourth matches, I thought the team would be able to maintain this consistency in the last match as well. And India will win the third match as well. But this is not the case. In the third match we again saw India's poor batting. The team cannot play well. The performance of their batsmen in particular was erratic. Expectations were high from Jiaswal and Gill. They batted brilliantly in the fourth match. Also, Hardik Pandya, the most experienced batsman of the team, did not bat well. Apart from the batsmen, the performance of India's bowlers was also poor. Even if the bowlers could have bowled well, the match would have been competitive.
If Suryakumar Yadav's performance was not good in the last match of the series, then India would have collapsed. Because the opening batsmen were failed and the in the 5th, 6th and 7th positions were also had no good contribution, the team could not go ahead with the score. So there is the question why the Indian good bowlers couldn't stop West Indies? Even the most wicket takers could not keep a wicket to their name. For which 8 bowlers were used but none were successful. Due to which West Indies got an easy win against the powerhouse team of cricket world.

In short, he became a victim of people who were arrogant towards others. And in an instant, his luck gradually disappeared as if he had become a withered vegetable, at the beginning he was happy with his success and the large amount of money he won. But with the passage of time and expenses careless decisions resulted in the loss of his wealth. he had expensive expenses such as buying a mansion house, cars and other properties.

He also did not invest or plan properly for his future. Instead of having a proper management of his money he had fun and didn't think deeply. This slightly distressed story again shows importance and responsible handling of money. Winning the lottery is no reason to lose financial self-discipline and proper planning. It is important to have proper planning for the future to avoid. such situations.
There are many gamblers who change their behavior the moment they win big. A kind of arrogance works among those gamblers. They do not think about taking any decisions. They revert back to their previous state of affairs to guide those gamblers into gambling. Those who fail to retain money after winning a large sum of money like the lottery do not have good future. If they cannot correct their mistakes then they cannot progress much in the long gambling life. A gambler must plan. Of course it is important for a gambler to have a proper plan.

  -    You know that sometimes there are other people who, when there is no other way to get money, their solution to get money quickly is gambling in the casino. And most of them are still making it a source of income even though they know it's hard to do that.

They like to throw away or waste money gambling even if they always lose because they think that if they win, they will get back all the losses, which is a wrong method.

Yes, definitely, there are still people who are gambling and perhaps earning a living from it, but few of such people still have self-control in gambling despite the fact that it's what they are earning their Income from to make their ends meet. But some people also misuse the money they get from their winnings, and they just keep gambling recklessly. Have you imagined a gambler who gambles to pay his house rent and also his child's school fee? Only a few gamblers can have such self-control to realise that despite the money they are wining from gambling, they still need to set aside some money from their winnings for the important stuff in their affairs and for the family.
Some people have good control in gambling and there are some people who cannot control. There are some gamblers who even after winning big money in gambling, they cannot keep the money and they loss the money reserved for their family expenses on gambling. A gambler must visualize his future otherwise he will have nothing but gambling addiction. A gambler must ensure proper use of his money in order to conduct long-term gambling. Otherwise he cannot last long in gambling.

Every gambler has their own belief at times. Others may find it strange, but it is not for them. What that guy did is comparable to what I've heard about psychology: don't tell people about your plan since the more you tell others about it, the less likely it is to happen. That individual might be thinking that if anyone sees his bet, it would put a jinx on him. That sort of thing. Gamblers are also superstitious because gambling is always, if not most of the time, based on luck.
If you are engaged in an activity that requires luck for being successful, it doesn't provide you an excuse to be superstitious. I mean, you can be, it's your right, no one should be judging you for what you believe, but being superstitious can become problematic, and it surely never helps. Don't do that to yourself.
Even if the activity requires luck, some of us are still superstitious. For example, when we watch a sport game, we can see that a player prays first or do other things/gestures. Some of it may not be familiar to us but they do that because they think it helps them to win and reach their current position.
This type of image is often seen in many sports where a player prays to his lord so that he can win. I wouldn't call it superstition. Because everyone knows that if creator is kind to someone then he can fulfill his dreams. Since praying to God for anything is a personal matter. I never look down on such faith. But beyond this, many people go through various superstitions to win in gambling. I think those superstitions have no basis.
