This casino probably values their reputation a lot. They’re just trying to play it the right way, and it’s also a form of advertisement. Because unlike other casinos that would freeze accounts and take back the winnings after a bug, they actually released it. Their generosity came from their own mistake (or their provider’s), but they took responsibility for it. We don’t really know what their agreement is with the provider, but what matters is the gamblers were satisfied.

This is the best kind of news when it comes to casino glitches, gamblers actually getting rewarded.
After all, it’s not the gamblers’ fault.

At some point we all experience being irresponsible with gambling, and maybe like what OP said, we swear we’ll never gamble again. But the truth is, that rarely happens. Out of 100 people who say that, maybe only 5 will actually quit for good. For most of us, gambling is already part of life. If we make mistakes, what we need to fix is the mistake itself so next time we play, we do it responsibly.

Sometimes people blame gambling for their mistakes, when in fact it’s their own irresponsible actions that caused it.

That’s the unfair part.

I think the most certain thing in that list is “Government Collects Taxes.” No matter what the outcome of gambling is, the government still makes a profit. I’m talking about registered casinos here, not the unlicensed ones that obviously don’t pay taxes.

So even us gamblers, who mostly lose in the long run, are still helping the country in some way since the government collects taxes from our play.
Without us, they wouldn’t profit. So in a way, they should be thanking us too. 

Let’s forget about whatever their relationship is, what really matters is that Casimero is finally back in action.


He’s been out for a year, so there’s also concern if he’s still the same fighter. The last time we saw him, it looked like he hadn’t trained well, he was short on stamina, breathing through his mouth, and clearly lacking conditioning. Hopefully in this comeback fight he shows up in better shape, because he can’t take this one for granted. This fight could be his ticket to a bigger fight.

If you believe on your investment potentials, why decide to panic sell? That only happens if you don’t know your investment well, or you aren’t got the faith for your bitcoin.

Personally, regardless if the price comes back and forth, I will still be holding my position tight and firm. If we can’t act like a big whale, then let’s just adopt what’s the strategy of a big whale, and that is to keep buying even if the price is at its peak or its bottom price.

It won’t be new for us if bitcoin will actually get there, or even surpass $150k for bitcoin. Remember, bitcoin never fail to give us an impressive price at the last quarter or every year end, so I’m certainly looking forward this year. Maybe the spike may not be too high, but at least we are assured that bitcoin price is moving forward.

Bitcoin is never a get rich quick scheme. It takes time to get into its new all time high. So we’ll see how far bitcoin price can go this time.

Dito sa Pilipinas, meron naman tayong licensed exchanges gaya ng Coins.ph, PDAX, Maya at iba pa. Pero kung pagbabasehan mo yung mga balita at usapan sa community, halata na mas marami pa ring Pinoy ang gumagamit ng global exchanges tulad ng Binance, Bybit, at KuCoin kahit wala silang lisensya dito.

From what I’ve read and observed, parang nasa 10–30% lang ng activity ang napupunta sa licensed local exchanges , madalas ginagamit lang sila for cash in/out sa PHP. Yung actual trading, whether spot, futures, o margin, nangyayari pa rin sa global platforms. Kahit may advisories na at may attempts na i-block, accessible pa rin yung apps at ginagamit ng karamihan.

Ang ibig sabihin nito? Mukhang hindi sapat na may lisensya lang para makuha ang users. Mas pinapahalagahan pa rin ng traders yung liquidity, mas maraming coin options, at advanced features na wala sa local platforms. Kaya kahit may local regulation, kung hindi nila kayang makipagsabayan sa features ng malalaking exchanges, mahirap silang makuha yung malaking parte ng market.

so here's the question.

Do you think Filipino traders will eventually move to licensed exchanges? Or will most of the trading volume continue to flow into global/unlicensed platforms?

I still remember the reason why he became an injury-prone player. It all started with that dirty play by the Warriors’ Zaza Pachulia that got him injured in the playoffs. After that, the team could no longer win without him. Sometimes it doesn’t matter how much players take care of themselves, with a dirty opponent, something like this can happen.

I don’t think the president will resign. Even if he’s guilty, he won’t step down because he knows that once the vice president takes over who isn’t his ally, she’ll find a way to put the corrupt officials behind bars.

The best chance he’ll be removed is through people power. If that happens, he might end up facing the same fate his father experienced during the martial law days in the Philippines.

I’ve also noticed that vloggers aren’t as aggressive in promoting casinos anymore. Probably because some of their accounts got banned by Meta for promoting unregistered casinos. So now they have to be more careful. On top of that, the licensed casinos are putting their money into celebrity endorsements instead, which means fewer opportunities for small-time vloggers compared to before when they were everywhere.

Good thing the government stepped in. A bit late, yeah, but still better than never.

You said the truth, how can we beat the house if they already have the edge? Trying to aim for that is suicide.

But if we’re just gambling occasionally, or even regularly with realistic expectations, then that’s fine. Some people are okay with losing as long as they enjoy, and winning big is just a bonus. I play slots sometimes too and I’ve hit multipliers like x1000 or even higher, I was so happy to experience that because I know it doesn’t happen often. I was just lucky that time, and I also know that when I come back to play, I won’t get the same luck again.


not if you know your limit.

And this actually saved others too, because if they’re diligent enough to do research before gambling and visit our forum, they’ll see that this casino doesn’t have a good reputation here. That alone should be a reason to stay away. Now that they’re exposed or maybe they’ve already been exposed before, let’s take this as another warning that we’re not safe gambling there.

The fact that they don’t even have a license is another red flag. There’s always the risk that our funds could get mixed up with dirty money, since money laundering isn’t far from happening on a platform like this.

If you want to save, having self-control and motivation is a must. But if you want to go beyond that, and eventually get rich, having a potential and profitable investment would make it possible.

Save and invest, these are the keys to achieve success and start building your wealth. But never settle on saving alone, like letting your money sleep in the bank because obviously, that will never make you achieve something in your life, the value of your money will depreciate instead.

You have a point. In fact, investing into bitcoin is already a great business. Even if you sleep all day while continue hodling your coins, once bitcoin price reaches another all time high, you will gain another profits which will add to your previous profits. The higher the price of bitcoin, the bigger your future profits will be.

Keep hodling your bitcoin as long as you can. But if you take time to sell and make some profits, that’s also okay. But never sell off your bitcoin, because there are still bigger chances to earn more with bitcoin compared to other physical business you have in your mind. When your bitcoin starts to profits, that’s the time you can diversify your investment and start a new one like your oil factory.

I’d love to see a poll on this just to know if there are really people crazy enough to risk their lives on a bet. I’m sure there are some, the hardcore addicts who’d even borrow from loan sharks knowing full well the risk of getting killed if they can’t pay. For them, it’s the ultimate high risk–high reward, but it also shows how deep gambling addiction can drag someone.

As for me, I’ll pass. No bet is worth more than my life or my family.
Some gamblers only realize that too late, when it’s not just money they’re losing anymore.

Sad not seeing him in the NBA anymore, but I don’t think his career ends here. Other leagues will definitely take him if he wants to keep playing. Just look at guys like Lance Stephenson, Jeremy Lin (retired), Dwight Howard, even Cam Reddish, they’re no longer in the NBA but still doing well in other leagues.

It feels like the NBA gave up on him too soon. he already cemented his legacy as the triple-double guy, and that will stick forever no matter where he plays next.

While trading competitions may improve other traders trading skills and capabilities, but not everyone is actually benefiting from a trading competition. Some still prefer to trade and harness on their own, progress on their own and end up profitable on their own as long as they ensure consistent trading exposure and experience in the market.

Success in trading isn’t actually a matter of competition, but it’s an individual trader’s mindset, knowledge and improved skills, positive attitudes, and most of all reliable experiences that make a trader inclined on his own field or trading career.

Seeing bitcoin alone that continues to gain high demand until now, even if not as a currency but a good store of value, that’s already something that Satoshi can be proud of. Only bitcoin can do that, while the rest of the cryptocurrencies have failed to achieved that. So definitely, bitcoin is a big success, and for that Satoshi should be happy and proud seeing his bitcoin innovation made a huge impact to an individual’s economy and even to the country’s economy as well.

If Canelo still values his pride, he should be honest with himself that he really lost that fight and has no chance of winning even in a rematch. So the decision not to take the rematch, even if it’s offered, is actually good for boxing fans, we don’t want to be disappointed watching the same thing while they just make big money again.

Both fighters already earned a huge payday from that fight. They should relax and take the rest of the year off. Next year they can come back with something new. As for Canelo, he can already retire comfortably at this point, he’s got nothing left to prove.

this figure is huge.

Yeah, it doesn’t make sense if they trade him. Since he arrived, Dallas really improved their inside defense, so I just can’t imagine not seeing him there.

And don’t forget, Dallas had a bad run last season after reaching the NBA Finals the year before. It’s expected they’ll do everything to bounce back this coming season, and that means they won’t be trading away their key players.
