Only 5 so far and out of 5 there will be 3 to get prize? It seems an easy job LOL

Who is The Terminator? Got 4 points so far while one have 2.

My luck seems to be out so far. I could only predict one winner correctly.  Grin I wish things can change for me as we proceed.
You are not alone. As per the table, you are better than me LOL. I started from the bottom 😉


Even though the participants are only 5 till now but it won't be easy to be in the top 3. It's going to be a bumpy ride. Still whole tournament is left but i guess every match point counts  Smiley

There are two people there "The Terminator" and "vaskiybtc" who are unknown. Both of you need to post here with your bitcointalk account. If you do not post here, i am afraid i will remove you from the list.

@Royse777, I do not see you participating in the competition???


Sorry, and please add me to the participant list. My name on Superbru is vaskiybtc. I've started from today's match and reached the 5th position. It looks like very few were active watching cricket. If a pool have been added for football, now big number of participants might've enrolled.

Super start from Chennai, Gaikwad again abusing bowlers, powerplay just over and current run rate above 13  Shocked, pretty sure we gonna see above 200 run target today.
Yeh that true Chennai Super King opening batter score some handsome runs and help his team to build a target of 217 In 20th overs. It's second time in this IPL season where a team give a target of above 200 but when ever a team scored a target above 200 the opponent team lose it. I think same situation is happening here because the opponent team Lucknow super giant lose his 5th wicket, now the only hope from them are N.pooran. while the required runs is 65 on 27 balls, if pooran were on a crease hope they will win it but if he got dismissed then the defeat is confirmed..
Finally Chennai Super Kings was able to win the match by 12 runs. If Chennai Super Kings have scored around 180 runs this could've been a confirmed win for Lucknow Super Giants. Nicholas Pooran lost his wickets at 32 runs. Even after that Gautham and Wood contributed good runs to reach the target. The slow scoring that happened around the 6th over of the match is the turning point for CSK. During this match when Dhoni was on the crease the live view count on the livestreaming crossed 1.7m+ views.

I haven't enrolled. I'll start from today. Even with free entry the participants were very low for the prediction pool. Everyone discussing on IPL can enroll going through the Bitcointalk IPL Prediction Pool & Discussion 2023. Last time we had around 12 participants. This time the party have started little late and for that reason every previous participants weren't contacted.

Mumbai started their innings very badly. Mumbai's collection in the first 10 overs was just 55 runs with the loss of 4 wickets. They scored 116 runs in the next 10 overs. They batted well. Tilak Varma performed well. He played an innings of 84 runs off just 46 balls. But I don't think Mumbai will win even after giving a target of 172 runs. Because RCB's batting line-up is very strong. Bengaluru's squad has experienced batsmen like Kohli, du Plessis, Maxwell and Dinesh Karthik. Bengaluru have more chances to win.
Mumbai may have had a tough start to their innings they were able to pick up momentum and put up a decent target of 172 runs. It's true that RCB's batting line up is strong but Mumbai has a skilled bowling attack that could prove to be a challenge for the opposition. Additionally cricket is a game of surprises and anything can happen on the day of the match. Mumbai has a chance to defend their target and secure a victory. It will be exciting to see how the match unfolds and which team comes out on top.
Credit goes to tilak varma who lifted the score board for Mumbai Indians  otherwise no other batsmen scored any runs . But their balling collapsed too they failed to take wickets as a result RCB is going to win this match easily.  The partnership of virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis is commendable they did brilliant batting.
Mumbai Indians batted first and they had the right runs to win but the bowling line of Mumbai Indians team was very weak due to which they lost the match. Royal Challengers Bangalore won the match by 8 wickets. Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis these two batsmen are excellent.  Performance. Virat Kohli scored 82 runs off 49 balls. Faf du Plessis scored 73 runs off 43 balls.
Royal Challengers have opened their match with a winning. This is really positive thing and we can expect the unlucky team to top the table in the coming days. Australia used to stay dominant all the time, and this time we can expect the down turn of Mumbai Indians team.

Good score have come out of the South Africa team. Netherlands isn't down in performance according to me. The team have reached 224 runs losing entire wickets and more than 10 overs left in the innings. Though this isn't a winning match I see improvement in the Netherlands team. Most of these teams have been getting better over time.
966  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Indian Premier League #IPL on: April 02, 2023, 05:43:15 PM
Mumbai Indians reached good score of 171 runs. At some point it looked like Mumbai Indians won't reach 150 runs. Tilak Varma had a good innings and showed his ability. His 84*(46) was very important at that time as wickets kept falling. Siraj had good bowling spell and this target got easily chased by Royal Challengers Bengaluru.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru have shown their strength to the rest of the teams. The team managed to reach the target in 16.2 overs losing 2 wickets. Kohli at 83*(49) Du Plessis 73(43) had the major contribution. Maxwell and Kohli on the crease, Kohli finished in style with six.

We weren't aware of what is gonna happen tomorrow. Another thing people easily fall for emotions and for that reason even the strongest person could worry after gambling loss. Whether you're an experience, strong or have good bag of money doesn't matter. Gambling have got its own risks and it can cause series impacts. Finally the blame will be over the person who introduced it, better we can stay away suggesting just the investment opportunities.

Expected it earlier and finally it is here. I thought of reminding the participants. Anyhow at the right time UmerIdrees have done it. Earlier Royse777 used to get sponsor for the IPL prediction pool. This time he had sponsored the pool. During the T20 World Cup we were short of participants and lets see whether IPL had good number of participants.

I don't see that any pool have been started yet. Right now only Royse777 has given a proposal to start a pool and he is the main sponsor himself. Also, if the superbru pool will start many participants will join because there is no entry fee this time and this means everyone can join and try their luck.
Who knows some sports betting sites may give them more donations and this can turn into a big prize money pool.  Smiley
I didn't mention about the prediction pool, I said about the thread being created for IPL discussion. Royse777 have proposed for the creation of separate pool. No entry fee will add more participants. More the participants the competence will be interesting as the position of participants vary on a very small margin.

Probably now I am thinking that I would not like to save all the time, I would like to reach the level at which I would be a wealthy person and I would not have to worry about money, but I have no idea when I can achieve this.
I had different moments in my life when the financial condition was both stable and not.One thing I can say for sure, it just doesn’t make sense to save money,it’s important to make it work for you.As for saving,this is a good habit,but it is also important that it does not go to extremes and cut your income in everything.It is important to set yourself a financial plan and clearly plan all future purchases,then you will have to save much less.
At all situations savings give hands, which is the best part of savings. With investment we've got the risk of losing as well as making big profit out of it. When we're in need if the investment we've made is at loss, this surely hurts us and we won't be able to do anything better. Even at such situations savings will help. Whether one is wealthy or managing to live a life with what he/she have, having atleast a very small portion as savings regularly surely helps in need.
970  Economy / Economics / Re: How Long in Years Should I Wait Before I Close Down an Unprofitable Business on: March 31, 2023, 11:42:28 PM
This is stressful to think honestly and we will never truly understand the real pressure on those businessmen who actually experienced that kind of situation.

It now depends on those set of reasons we see on "why we keep operating despite being unprofitable".

But one thing is for sure, "there is no certain exact period".
As said we can't have an exact time period on the closure of a business and move towards a new one, because we've invested everything into it. Switching to a new business costs us even more. Most of the time it is good to try until the business doesn't cost us to pay from our pocket. When the business turns completely into loss, then it is time to get out of it. In recent years COVID have caused a big blow and for that reason we should consider to keep things positive and move forward. It takes time to get better business.

  • Casinos revenue comes out of the users. Casino always have an edge and for that reason it won't go into loss or bankruptcy at any situation.
  • Scam happens through different means. In specific fake sites resembling the original platform can be seen, and users without cross-checking the URL used to deposit funds to play. Find the trusted platforms and check before making deposits to be on the safer side.
  • The safe gambling sites can be identified based on its community presence. Promotions and bonuses provided as mentioned. Perfect support when some mistake happens.

Bangladesh vs Ireland
 In today's 3rd T20 match, Bangladesh came out to bat first and gave a target of 124 runs in 20 overs. I am a bit unlucky to see the game. Bangladesh batsmen did not perform well in batting today. Bangladesh batsman Shakib Al Hasan was out for 6 runs in 6 balls. Litton  Das was dismissed for 5 runs off 4 balls. Mark Adair of Ireland had a fantastic performance. He took 3 wickets for 25 runs off 4 overs.
Ireland players bowled very well today and Bangladesh took quick wickets which I never imagined.  And I never thought that Bangladesh would lose with Ireland anyway Bangladesh won two out of three matches.  So they are still ahead of Ireland.  And later Bangladesh will take revenge for this match by correcting their mistakes. Shakib Al Hasan or Liton Das they tried hard to do well but the Ireland players bowled in a way that was out of their control. Anyway congratulations to Ireland for beating a team like Bangladesh
Wao so after immense criticism and bad performance fi ally Ireland managed to put pressure on Bangladesh,  they have defeated them pretty good by 7 wickets.
Today Bangladesh batting lineup collapsed and no player scored any good runs credit goes to Ireland ballers.
Congratulations to Ireland in winning this one .
Ireland played well and in a steady manner. Atleast one player had to take stand and continue to score. This is what happened today. Though there is continued fall of wickets the scoring from one side kept coming in a faster phase. This pressure up the opponent, even in the previous matches Ireland should've done it. Anyhow it is a big win for Ireland to end all critics against them.

Every investment is subject to risk. Bitcoin appreciates in value, which is the belief. However the market isn't the same as traditional market where it is possible to make closer prediction. With bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies we were able to experience wild changes in no time. As stated rather than investing on car and other luxury things to make life comfortable it is good to invest on bitcoin and with the profit invest on car, properties etc.

In my locality primary focus of people is to have an own house. Later slowly they buy a car and have some jewels which helps in emergency. Now only slowly awareness given and the same will result in more people getting interested into investment over savings.

United Arab Emirates vs United States of America
Asif Khan's presence at the crease is undoubtedly crucial for UAE to post respectable totals. With two batsmen already hitting half centuries Khan's experience and current form could prove to be the difference between scores of 260 and 300. The USA bowling attack will also target Khan's wicket to restrict UAE to a low total. It will be interesting to see how Khan plays under pressure and if he can take UAE to a competitive total. UAE's lower order batsmen will also need to step up and contribute to the team total. They will have to bat wisely and rotate the strike to support Khan and ensure that UAE reach a challenging total.
Between these two teams, United Arab Emirates and United States of America, I cannot predict which team will win today. United Arab Emirates batted first and gave a target of 279 runs in 50 overs. United States took the field to bat. Scored 118 runs in 22.4 overs.  United States batsman Saiteja Mukkamalla scored 43 runs off 44 balls. Sushant Modani was dismissed with 39 runs off 49 balls.

USA collected 167 runs losing only 2 wickets. USA's top order batsmen are batting very well. USA need 113 runs to win in 18 overs. About 6 runs needed per over to win. As the USA lost only two wickets, the match still seemed to be completely in the USA's control. A good performance from the bowlers is definitely needed if UAE wants to win the match. There is no chance of UAE winning this match if USA is not able to pick up some wickets quickly.
On the other hand, Namibia won easily against Jersey. Jersey set a target of 214 runs. Today, Namibia reached the target of victory in just 32.1 overs.
USA is in good position after 36 overs, scoring 188 runs losing the openers wickets. 92 runs from 84 balls will be easily reached by USA. The player who is taking USA towards the win, Saiteja Mukkamalla have scored 69* runs and he's just 18 years of age. The match between USA and UAE can be considered equally, because both the teams were of players with India and Pakistan origin than the natives.

Tsitsipas has been not in his lucky day...sorry for your bet loose Trofo Sad

Meanwhile Sinner it seems is going to win easy against Ruusuvuori.
Well, there is a rain delay in this match but I don't think there is nothing much to do at this point for the finnish player.

Damn thats a bummer Trofo. I think at this stage Tsitsipas has let us down on matches
he "should" have won. I bet on him earlier in the tournament but in the later stages I limit
betting on him, I've just been let down too many times.

Sinner was too strong for Ruusuvuori, I did a bet on him to win the first set. I watched it
up until the rain interrupted play.
Sinner made it an easy winning 6-3 6-1. Ruusuvuori lost to Zverv in the Indian Wells and he fought till the end of the third set. This time he wasn't able to perform. Jannir got into the semifinals and all the players predicted to reach the semifinals will be performing better in the past. Tsitsipas losing the match in direct sets is completely unexpected, and remaining quarter finals scheduled for the day gives easy win as odds were completely in favour of Medvedev, Alcaraz and khachanov.

snip..

India will work hard to gain experience in the run-up to the World Cup. No team wants to lose to another team so here India will forget their past performance and now they will adopt a new strategy to compete with other teams. There is no doubt that India will enter the field with a lot of experience in terms of bowling and batting. However, their performance at the start of the World Cup will continue to shock other teams. Of course, India's performance will improve and deteriorate only when competing in the World Cup with teams from outside the world.


The problem that India is now facing is unreliable batting performance. In the bilateral series against Australia, there were a few class batters who were struggling to play spin bowling. I have never seen an Indian batter facing such an issue. Another problem was the Indian batting order. I am also confident that things will be different with the Indian team after the IPL.
I don't think so, because the pattern with ODI format and T20 were entirely different. Indian team at times go completely dependent over specific players. In few matches the tail order performed well and brought win the Indian team. This doesn't happen all the time, and IPL is termed to be the reason for India losing the T20 World Cup. Because everyone were well known about the bowling techniques followed by the Indian bowlers and the opponents managed well to score.
978  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Any casino site offer Ludo game? on: March 29, 2023, 10:51:33 PM
I love to play Ludo game with my friend in this case i use popular Ludo game (Ludo king) Here we can play ludo together with another friend through an invitation code and also invite social friends to play ludo through social media accounts connected. I have not found such ludo game in casino sites.  Can anyone find a casino site where i can play ludo but bet with bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies? Then it will be more fun for me.  I think it's more fun than other gambling games because it has to be played with your critical  Brain.
^To be honest, I just now heard about this kind of game and based on my short research, this game is very popular in India and they usually used fiat than cryptocurrency. Even though there are too many gambling casinos here I did not hear about this game and I cannot give an idea of how to play this game. The reason probably why this game did not include by many game developers is because of its popularity which is many gamblers don't know about this game.
This is what I have found, it is on gamesdapp, https://www.gamesd.app/blockchain-ludo-game-development
I'm really surprised to know that good number of users haven't heard about Ludo game. In my country it is something a common game which is being played by the kids to the old-age. Almost every fiat based gambling platforms in my country have got Ludo game. Probably not because of the lack of popularity, but the edge casino makes is low as the game is played between players and takes more time.

It is because of this that not only we need to have limits when we are losing but also when we are winning, after all it is understandable that when you are having a good session you do not want to quit as you think about all the money you have lost and that you want to recover, but as we know luck is impossible to control, so at some point your luck will stop and then you will begin to lose, and when that happens you could get desperate and try to get back at least the money you were earning, and as we know once you reach that point most likely your session will not end well.

This type of wrong decision we take on gambling which cause possible addiction occur only on early days of our gambling career since most of the time we think that its easy to earn money here and also we can't stop easily when we are having a good session since we want more. But soon we realize all of this and it will be corrected over the time we play then for sure after those bad or good experiences we can develop our own strategies upon playing.
When we're into the beginning days of gambling we have more dreams of turning rich through gambling and when we loss big for the first time we weren't able to accept it. This settles down with time on realising how hard to win big through gambling, same gives the realisation on the need of luck. With time experience gives better learning and the same mostly keeps us in good control.
980  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The future of CBDC in gambling. on: March 29, 2023, 09:36:51 PM
Governments doesn't really force CBDC to be adopted by any service platforms, they use this as a tool to tackle the crypto currency when people say fiat system is old so government claims their current CBDC is same as blockchain and with most people unaware of what is decentralised money will go after CBDC. However about the casinos there won't be much affect for Bitcoin or other cryptos due to the inclusion of CBDC cause it's going to affect the fiat based users more in my opinion.
We hope so but cannot know what the government wants in the future. If they want CBDC to be adopted by any service platform, they can do it easily because they can force it on any service owner. However, the government really doesn't like crypto that can protect the anonymity of its users so maybe in the future, the government will still ask for services to add CBDC to its system. Hopefully, it doesn't affect bitcoin and other cryptos, but we just have to be more careful. Perhaps, using CBDC provides convenience for ordinary users but not crypto users.
None is gonna affected by the CBDC inclusion, because people who have used cryptocurrency for gambling will never move to fiat or something else further. As stated fiat users could find CBDC to be something more advanced and use it. CBDC is nothing better than the digital format of fiat. It favours the government providing each and every transaction, so this is going to be a choice for fiat users and not the cryptocurrency users.
