Poker player Thomas got 8 and 7 while revealed cards have 9, 10, and a Jack. He just folds like that without hesitation on the $543K pot. Steve clearly doesn't have a good card because he even raised his hand in dismay, would you notice the faces and the actions of the poker players reflecting the cards they hold?

If you are Thomas and have just added more money to the pot, would you fold?  We can't see his face though but I can just imagine how disappointing it would be to learn Steve just have KK

If there is a list that may make you feel lucky or you want to be lucky, you probably want to know which casino has the most jackpot winners before jumping ahead and depositing to certain casinos. Maybe a list of casinos like statistics of which casinos and the number of users who got paid when they hit the jackpot or does any of this list exist even just the casino's luck percentage?

I'm curious if this kind of data will encourage gamblers to pick the top number one.
And don't you think casinos will allow users to hit the jackpot now and then so they rank up on the list of the luckiest casinos?

It is said that the Saudis detained Floyd due to gambling debt. While we assume this country doesn't allow gambling, the report says that this casino is an invite-only for high rollers and that Floyd "Money" Mayweather is possibly in debt of $100M and he ain't going home until he settles the amount. I think he has already broken the record for the biggest gambling losses that celebrities have made. Mike Jordan and Tiger Woods's loss is nothing.

The news started a week ago but there was really no real information about it, most of the speculation only comes from Tank Davis since Tank is talking to someone who was with Floyd in Saudi and the information Tank gives sounds a lot worse. According to some other reports, Floyd is held by the Saudi Government but he can go somewhere else in the country but not fly his private jet.

Just to have a simple discussion, the Saudi government allow a few people to gamble and invite Floyd? Just one of the things we don't know, peasants could get hanged in public if they gambled and were caught.

"It's time for schools to focus on the root cause of online teen gambling by implementing gambling prevention education in all high schools. Health class curricula across the nation cover the typical risks for teens such as smoking, drinking, vaping, etc yet gambling education is nowhere to be found in our schools. "

This is what Colby Cotrone said when interviewed by NBC News about the article he published in NYpost about the online gambling trend among teens causing concern because, in the school halls, they can already overhear teens checking odds and their parlays like it's the most casual thing to do in the campus. This is due to the gambling apps easily downloaded by anyone.

When Marc Potenza the Director of the Center of Excellence in Gambling Research was asked whether they were seeing young patients calling for help, he said there is an increase of 90% in young males with sports gambling problems. Either the patient himself or the parents calling for them. https://youtu.be/pCDbvDDLpFg?t=313

What's striking the most of what Colby Cotrone said was that kids are unaware of what they are doing. Could it be that even the grown-up man may also not be aware of what he is doing as over time a gambler may be consumed by how much he enjoyed the thrills of gambling?

They think they are doing something as simple as rooting for thier favorite players but it's turned more into making money than the game and having fun as a fan. - Colby Cotrone

And would you agree with him in implementing gambling prevention education in schools?

I'm asking because even today in Argentina, merchants will still prefer to accept the Argentine Peso regardless of the hyperinflation that devalues their currency. This is just based on what a friend said to me.

Analysts emphasized that people still accept the local currency because there is a working banking system in the country which means that Gold, Silver, and Bitcoin, will only work when there is already no financial system that is working. This sounds like chaos already. If you are to prepare for what is to come would you wait for the chaos to start?

President Melei expressed he is a Bitcoin President which is why I think there will be adoption of Bitcoin in the country since there are news already popping out such as:

Argentina Will Mine Bitcoin With Stranded Gas Thanks To Genesis Digital Assets (GDA)
https://www.forbes.com/sites/digital-assets/2024/05/07/argentina-will-mine-bitcoin-with-stranded-gas-thanks-to-gda/?sh=3cc801da45f9
Genesis Digital Assets to Launch Flare Gas Powered Bitcoin Mining Site in Argentina
https://news.bitcoin.com/genesis-digital-assets-to-launch-flare-gas-powered-bitcoin-mining-site-in-argentina/

If at first, we are only seeing El Salvador mining BTC through their volcanoes, I think President Melei is following that path in mining BTC as well.
If you see the future and how the smaller countries follow the path, you may be seeing the populist candidate in your country being a Bitcoin president. One that is rising as of now is Maya Parbhoe from Suriname. She is running as president in a country that might also be adopting Bitcoin in the future. The number of presidents changing thier stance about Bitcoin will grow gradually and Trump is even one of them.

But for now, I want to introduce you to Maya Parbhoe https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-Bc4MpSyXo

It worked for some time that I turned my $5 to $40 in 2 days of betting. This is just a test of it as I learn this from someone as well. He didn't teach me the entire strategy but just gave me a hint on how to do it.  So maybe if you can improve this sports betting strategy, you may as well contribute to this evolution.

So here are his words: Find a sport like Hockey where teams normally just score a few and usually the first team that scores wins the game. And then find a casino that lists live matches. And then Parlay on 2-3 games. Don't go more than that or it gets riskier he emphasizes.

So what I did is apply this same strategy on Soccer as well. Remember to do this on live matches.
So when you see game 1-0 and the team that score 1 has the odds of 1.30, I guess this is a good bet already. Just add another of these live games for your multibet and hope to win. Also, make sure it's already 2nd half.

Note: Not Guaranteed But Worth Trying.

You are just given the binary choice. This is to predict whether Sean Omalley can land a significant strike of 112.5 and you are just to choose LESS / MORE.

I saw this from an influencer promoting a sports betting platform. I'm not sure if it is an old or new platform but this is quite a good way to predict and earn when you know the sports well. I have looked into BTC sports bookmakers but saw none.

This is also available to NBA stars whether they can make 20 points in a game or whether Steph Curry can successfully shoot 2 3points. 
The bookmaker is

Would this kind of bookmaker prosper in crypto?

You are at the poker table and then one guy on the other side raises the plot to $20 and then another $50. Knowing your pair may not win if he has a higher pair, you decide to fold.

If I were on the table, I would like to know what his cards are so that I can know sometime in the future whether he is bluffing or not but he just mixes his cards with the rest of the pile without me knowing what they are. I'd feel like I am cheated.

Would you just be annoyed not knowing the cards that made you fold?

This is a standup comedian, don't know his name but he felt lucky to have not understood crypto and missed the whole tragedy of the FTX scam. Funny how he sees it that way but of course this is comedy.

If we are to take his argument, which one would you rather be? Would you wanna be the ignorant or the ones who made a mistake?

I am trying to sell old stuff that I have from power tools and the Crossbows that I have created myself. This will require me to sign and submit KYC but I have no experience in BTC payment methods, the options I have are:

CoinPayments
CoinGate
PayOP
NOWPayments
Coinbase Commerce

Anything else you can suggest? For anyone who tried any of these, which one do you like the most and why?

We're given free bets after signing up to an operator when making a minimum deposit, we claim bonuses with it. I don't normally try claiming bonuses for I know the wagering requirement but I'm trying it this time.

If you are to use them to your advantage and turn it into coins how do you do it? Besides betting on both sides it sure is but you know the math of it.

Cast your bet in a match that have yet not started or bet when the game is already live?
It must have been asked before but in case new sports bettors have not yet read such thread, reply back your opinion about it.

Found myself losing when the money line changes from 1.75 to 4.35 as the game began. But sometimes when I also wait for the game to start, it changes to worse such from 1.75 to 1.10

He particularly chose Black 15 for $10K on roulette which he could have won $350,000 but a friend took the $10K and replace a safer bet. I know this is likely not to happen in real life. But let's say it did. What would you do?

["Those who play with fire will perish by it"]

I'm not sure why we are not talking it here while its about to go China vs US war already because of Nancy Pelosi trying to visit Taiwan. The Chinese government will always assume this visit is to convince DPP to fight as US are trying to arm Taiwan. 

Xi had warn US telling: "Those who play with fire will perish by it"

Should she visit or not? This is no a poll though  or something we can bet, Just want to hear some reasons from you whether we are expecting another war or not.

If the  casino had been around before 2016, the old folks here must have been there playing for awhile and then leaves after seeing a thread introducing a new casino. But maybe you also come back to check the old one. What are your reasons why you come back and play again to an old casino you once left?

How often do bookmakers make mistakes in setting odds?
Certainly, Zhang has a beautiful record but the majority of those fights are like amateur fights. Not sure why this was recorded on pro.


 

Should the bookmakers consider Rose Namajunas' KOs of those high profiles she busts before setting the odds, you can see it's very close even when she caught Zhang in the first fight.  Currently, it's Rose (1.97)  Zhang (1.87)  on Stake.

[1.30]

I'm not sure if this had been asked before. This is just an example of some odds that I saw recently Fighter A (1.30) vs Fighter B (3.65). With this obviously, Fighter A is the people's champ and Fighter B is the underdog. 

Regardless of who is bigger and undefeated record, let's say you have no idea who these fighters are because the names can't even be read like Ulshrkubyki vs Ykwehgyfvbh. If you only have $10 left in your sports betting account, would you go for the champ which you can only earn $3, or go for the underdog which if he got lucky can triple your money?

Introducing Worldcoin

A new, collectively owned global currency that will be distributed fairly to as many people as possible.
The internet is powerful because of large networks. Email, social apps, and marketplaces are examples of such networks. The more participants they have, the more powerful they become. For the first time, cryptocurrencies make it possible to distribute ownership and control of those networks to their users, rather than a single entity.

From https://worldcoin.org/

It was launched yesterday based on the articles I've seen which is also what I have read on crypto news today.

The project founder is known for OpenAI named Sam Altman which this project wants to airdrop Worldcon to everyone for fair wealth distribution. Seem very upright so that no one will be left behind while blockchain is remaking this world. The last company that I have heard who wants to distribute fairly to the entire world was Stellar(XLM) who uses facebook accounts, only to find out everyone has multiple facebook accounts.

But in order for Worldcoin to watch out that you don't cheat and grab another batch of the airdrop, they are going to be using The Orb. This is somewhat like a biometric system that checks a person’s iris to verify an individual. More of it from here.

The image above I'm sure is just a representation of it but I think they are going to be using an app with the phone camera to scan your eyeballs. This is if you are willing to register your eyeballs to this company. Are you?

How to claim https://worldcoin.org/privacy-by-design

Surgeons in New York have successfully attached a kidney grown in a genetically altered pig to a human patient and found that the organ worked normally, a scientific breakthrough that one day may yield a vast new supply of organs for severely ill patients.

More of it https://www.nytimes.com/2021/10/19/health/kidney-transplant-pig-human.html

All patients wouldn't have to wait very long for available kidneys for a human willing to give their kidney to someone with this breakthrough. Families of patients are hoping to find someone every day to save a member of their family, I guess this is a solution. Many families will probably try this which I think is also much cheaper than human kidneys. If this is possible, we could get lungs too right?

What are your thoughts on this approve it or not. I know Muslims will definitely not.

Hovering to the  2 squares above it, a message will say broker is not connected. I don't think this error is my fault, I'm sure I have done nothing to it. It just seems very timely actually that BTC is rising and charts are getting error. I have had a problem with this already since yesterday, is anyone also experiencing this kind of error and have solved it?
