Futures trading and gambling are almost one and the same because accurate prediction and analysis are require. In case of future trading a trader can take entry on any coin by setting his/her leverage as desired and if his prediction is correct and the price of that coin moves towards his target he gets profit and through future trading one can become rich in a short period of time like gambling. Again, Hughes may suffer losses in the short term. However, although there are some differences between gambling and futures trading, they are equal in terms of risk

A look at the price movements of Bitcoin and gold over the last 10 years shows how different they are.  But if we think about safe investment, there is a lot of difference between the two.  Holding Bitcoin has a much higher annual profit potential than gold.  However, the risk here is also very high, but if you hold gold, the annual price change rate is low, but there is no risk here.So whether to hold gold or bitcoin depends on how much risk or profit he is willing to take.
If I think about the price of bitcoin and gold, I will invest in both. Because investing in bitcoin is very risky. And if we invest in gold, we will have a small profit. And it will become an asset for us. And if we  If we invest in Bitcoin we will have the possibility of losing money.I think we can invest some money in bitcoin gold and if some time give us a chance to make a lot of money.
A better plan is to invest in multiple assets rather than depending on just one thing. Because in this case, if one is lost, the other will back it up. Meanwhile, although Bitcoin investment is risky, investing in gold is completely risk free. Because the price of gold has been constantly increasing in the last ten years. even if the price of Bitcoin increases a lot, there are occasional major crashes.  But this is not seen in gold. So it is better to invest in both Bitcoin and Gold
Yes, I think so too. I will invest a little more in gold because there will be no risk in investing in gold. But investing in Bitcoin will be a little risky. But I think even if it is risky, I will get good amount of money from Bitcoin.But after investing in Bitcoin you have to wait for a long time. After investing in Gold it can be sold at any time at the right price. But if the price of Bitcoin is in a dump then there will be a lot of loss if you sell Bitcoin.
Investing in Bitcoins requires you to hold it for a long time which will not help you in an emergency because if the price of Bitcoins is lower than your purchase price at that time you will have a huge loss if you sell.  However, the price of gold does not fall very often and in times of emergency, gold can be saved from danger by selling it. So if you invest in both Bitcoin and Gold Bitcoin will give you a big profit if you hold it long time, and Gold will give you the profit as well as emergency backup.

Scotland won by 111 runs today. Scotland batted first and gave the target of runs. I thought that Scotland will not win in this run. But Scotland has performed very well in the bowling line.Because of which Scotland won very easily in today's match. I did not think that United Arab Emirates will play so badly in batting. United Arab Emirates scored 171 runs all out. But for Scotland's players, it helped a lot to win this match.
UAE looks good in t20 matches but looks very weak in ODI. a target of 282 runs was not a huge target for an ODI match but in the meantime UAE lost by 111 runs. UAE plays very poorly in ODI matches losing most of their matches. 4 UAE players were got out after scoring below 10 runs. and because of this they lost all the wickets with 171 runs after playing only 35 overs

People gamble even after so many obstacles and troubles because their greed works here that maybe they can win something big from gambling which can change their life this is their wrong idea.  And this idea draws most people to gambling. Some gamblers fall into an addiction while gambling for fun and then getting out of gambling becomes very difficult. This is how a person gets stuck in gambling.
Some other times, there is this idea of wanting to recover their losses before giving up and this act is known as revenge gambling  or chasing after losses and this has lead to great losses and serious gambling addiction and people should learn how to use only money they can afford to lose for gambling.
If a gambler goes to take revenge after a gambling loss, he will panic and face a bigger loss. revenge can be taken in all cases but it is foolish to think of taking revenge in gambling. the only real trick to getting better at gambling is to relax and take breaks from gambling and always accept the limit. If they are not followed, only then the loss is certain

Is it possible for a casino to go bankrupt because a player gets a very big win?

I think maybe that's hard to happen if we look at casinos that are already big and well known. But suppose there is a new casino, and there are some players who are very good at playing, so they can win continuously, can the casino go bankrupt? or do they already have an algorithm or a way so players can't keep winning?
Some algorithms are set for casino games that make it impossible for a person to win at regular gambling. so in this case there is no chance of the gambling site to go bankrupt but since no algorithm of the site works in sportsbet so in this case a gambler has a chance to win constantly if able to predict correctly. In this case, if a site has only sportsbet options and no other casino games, there is a possibility of bankruptcy.

Long back while having conversation with one of my girlfriend she said she was interested into cryptocurrency. Quite often she used to watch more details on Instagram posts and doesn't have proper knowledge to get into it. Days passed and today it is her birthday. I remembered the conversation and wished her. Already she had Binance, so requested her to send the bitcoin address and send a small amount of 0.0011BTC as birthday gift.
Very nice story though, it's a good initiative for you to introduce your girlfriend to Bitcoin. If you marry her, you both can do good things with Bitcoin  Cheesy
Before introducing her to bitcoins I think you have taught them how to trade bitcoins and which wallets support and are safe to hold bitcoins. I wish him all the best in his bitcoin journey
669  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gender in Gambling [differences between Women and Men in Gambling] on: June 21, 2023, 10:53:22 PM
Everyone is free to give his own interpretation on women interaction with gambling but what we will all arrived at is that we cannot compare the rate of women participation to that of men in gambling, maybe we can give some reasons like how women were believed to be weaker vessels unlike men in most cases, their dedication and commitments to the house and the family especially in taking care of the children at home, lastly maybe our women may not have that boldness of taking risk associated to gambling because some depends on their earnings to take care of the family.
Women gamble less than men because women love money more than men and don't like to waste money. But nowadays women have also progressed a lot and women are working extensively as an alternative to men, so women are gradually getting involved in gambling as well too. But while women have gambled less than men so far, it doesn't seem like such a difference will exist in the future days
Things have changed so much, now women like taking risks with money, I am not sure about gambling but I am pretty sure about investment, the world is getting tougher every year and women have no choice but to start going the extra path of getting money like their men, I have two female friends, one is a hardcore crypto investor, believe me when I said "hardcore", she can be considered a crypto investment expert who takes risks that some men aren't even ready to take, my other female friend still feel hesitant with crypto investment but she likes other investments like land better.
Women don't like loss.  So their attraction to gambling may be less but it is true that women are now willing to risk themselves for investment. Gambling and investment are completely different things.  However, women are now also addicted to gambling, but at a much lower rate than men. Gambling can be a great tool to destroy people. But now it is chosen as a common thing by all men and women

Snip
Giving deposit bonuses is a strategy of gambling sites that helps them attract gamblers. but when one accepts the bonus he must comply with the wagering requirements and as soon as he makes the deposit he will get the bonus but his balance will be frozen. So it is better to avoid bonus and gamble with break instead of panic is the best strategy to succeed in gambling. however, many people do not understand this issue and face many problems and lose a lot of money in gambling.
Yes, I didn't understand much about gambling at first. At first, a new gambling site gives you an unspecified bonus when you deposit. But now I'm a big fan of gambling.I lost a lot of money while playing gambling without understanding anything about gambling in the first stage. Now I don't have to face such problems. But I think gambling is a deadly addiction. We should stay away from gambling.
Many casino sites have the option to take deposit bonus or not and the user can choose it as per his wish. so note this while making a deposit and then skip the bonus option to avoid encountering the wagering requirement. Because the wagering requirement creates extra stress for a gambler. So you should always avoid bonuses whether you understand it or not
671  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Important Points to Learn from Your Worst Sports Betting Losses! on: June 20, 2023, 12:19:30 PM
The lesson I've learned from loosing sports bet is to take all bets serious. Probably every time I made a bet just for fun, just because odds seems to be like a easy win, just because "that team/player simply cant fail" - I've lost. I did not treat my money responsibly. Also a bet like "place a bet and forget" will probably lose. Every time I've placed a bet and watched sports, I end with more or less expected outcome. But when I place a bet, close browser and went for a lunch for example, it is always a loss for me. Play smart, focus, have cold head.
Of course, everyone's financial responsibility is their own.  But those who gamble only for fun do not panic and bet on sure matches with sports bets as they get more fun and also less chance of financial loss. But those who panic in the slightest always face problems and suffer financially.  So gambling should be taken as fun and should be done in a relaxed manner without panicking

673  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you find it offensive to be referred to as an addicted gambler? on: June 19, 2023, 09:49:53 AM
Many people find it difficult to accept who they are and the bad habits that they have, accepting a habit is the first step that will determine if any help offered to you will work. As a gambler, will you find it offensive if you are referred to as a gambling addict? will you easily accept it or try to give excuses like some other people do, saying that they are not addicted to gambling when the signs are clearly there. Do you think identifying as an addicted gambler will make people stereotype you. The answer is different for every gambler here.
An addicted gambler can never control himself and his sense of right and wrong is diminished. So he doesn't realize that he is deeply addicted to gambling so he doesn't want to admit that he is addicted to gambling. So a person who does not gamble or gambles very rarely  will understand who is deeply addicted to gambling but an addicted person will never understand it.

Congratulations to Spain

It was very tough from beginning to the end and Spain have to win the day. There must be a winning in every finals. I really wished Modric would have lifted this cup but he tried his best but it didn't work for him
The hero of tonight was the Spanish keeper - Simon who saved 2 goals in the penalty shoot out.
I really love this season end. It is not boring, there are alot of matches to watch and to bet.
And again Modric failed in the final when he was in the national team, which is quite disappointing because it looks like it will be a trophy for Croatia, and their goalkeeper this time did not perform like in a good World Cup on penalties. Congratulations to Spain who finally became champions not as the favorite team to win but were able to overcome their opponents well, including in penalty shootouts,
I will not blame the Crotia goalkeeper for not saving penalty. When it comes to Penalty kicks,  there is not guarantee that any goalkeeper will save the shoots. That is why we blame the players for missing Pk and praise the goalkeeper for saving PK.
Having said the above, I will rather blame two Croatia players for missing Pk, unlike the Crotia I know too well in the world for being able to take excellent penalty kicks.
Sometimes too you drop your goalkeeper and take the second choice. Spain dropped Kepa for Simon and the result was great
There is always nothing for the goalkeeper to do but many times many penalties are missed due to the fault of the goalkeeper.  However, Croatia vs spain match was very hard fought and spain scored 5 goals in penalties but Croatia missed one, unfortunately they lost.  But Croatia's goalkeeper cannot be blamed for this. Both teams were very good and strong so the match was played like this. winning and losing matches in pk mostly depends on goalkeeper and luck

According to the articles shared, sports betting will have the highest market gain in the next few years.
What do you think?

Sportsbetting is a very seasonal business, during times of big tournaments we are also seeing a lot of people betting on it. Now with the covid pandemic being over and no more restrictions on international travel I think that all the big tournaments are coming. Which definitely means that we are seeing a rise of sports betting. Against this trend is the rising inflation, which makes living cost so much more expensive and leaves us less money to spend on gambling. Also casinos and sports books don't need to report their revenues publicly as most of them are private companies. This makes it harder to compare the numbers of traditional casinos against sportsbetting. Among my friends I have more people betting on sports then going to casinos, so the statement could definitely be true.
Sports betting has indeed been very popular in online gambling for a long time and this type of bet is very easy to do with some predictive strategies for profit and is very easy for so many novice gamblers to do so that online gambling is developing very quickly in this very fast era of advanced technology.
Many people have made huge profits from sports betting, which can be seen in the news from time to time. when it comes to sports betting, if you know the team or player and know the performance of the players, predicting the result is easy and potential. and the industry of sports betting is now very big and there are huge amount of gamblers for sportsbet.

Personally, I respect and approve of your approach and believe that if more people acted like you, the cryptocurrency market would be much safer. A conscious investment is very important, of course it does not mean that it will always be profitable, but it shows a mature approach to investment and I believe that in the long run it will guarantee you profit. Do not give up further learning economics and technical analysis, and it will certainly pay off in the future. I wish you every success.
If everyone had the same mindset, everything would have gone well. so more than half of the crypto users panic and when they hear any negative market news or see the market dump, they quickly start selling their crypto so the market gets worse. But they don't understand that the market will pump again and they can get more profit.  So, everyone should keep this in mind and not panic, but be patient
677  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A no-Bitcoin friend turned a old Bitcoiner on: June 19, 2023, 09:09:40 AM
It may be for his own security. Because Bitcoin is a currency where one can hold large sums of money at once in a completely anonymous manner, many people do not want to publicize their financial status and hold large sums of money in secret. because of this, many people want to hide their Bitcoin usage or holdings. the best formula is for those who happily use Bitcoin to let everyone know about it, but those who use Bitcoin to hold large amounts of money try to keep themselves a secret.

Nepal set a target of 290 runs but Zimbabwe managed to overcome it and Zimbabwe won by 8 wickets it was a very good performance. Only 4 players from Zimbabwe crossed this run target by playing, out of which 2 players Ervine and Williams scored more than 100 runs each.  These two deserve high credit for Zimbabwe's win. Nepal did not play badly, they also kept the target in good runs against Zimbabwe

Personally, I thought Nepal is going to have good confidence going into the second innings. They had a good total on board for sure. But the performance of the Zimbabwe team was beyond exceptional. Winning a match with eight wickets and more than 30 balls in hand is not an easy task when the target is more than 290.

And I expected better performance from the bowling side of Nepal. Craig Ervine and Sean Williams both of them, got their individual milestones of a century. Nepal was also fortunate that Zimbabwe conceded 22 extra runs. Otherwise, the match was going to be over far earlier. I think Nepal actually underestimated the capability of Zimbabwe. If Zimbabwe can keep this type of performance going, I think they might have a chance to qualify for the World Cup.
The way Zimbabwe played, it would have been possible for them to complete the target of more than 300 runs. Because they beat the target of 290 runs in just 44 overs and only 4 players played for Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe's preparation was good while Nepal also tried hard to set a high run target to their opponents Zimbabwe but failed to set a target of more than 300 runs so Nepal lost the match.

Last season was indeed a bad one for the Old Ladies of Turin because of the court decisions that went against them and that is also why they'll not be playing in the UEFA Champions League competition come next season.
The point deduction is now a thing of the past but the club's management needs to be careful in involving themselves in similar dealings that led to the point deduction and also the players of the club must step up and take the club to where they belong once again
Juventus experienced ups and downs last season and I really applaud their fortitude in dealing with these problems. Actually, deducting points isn't entirely bad, but it can't be said to be good either, because there is something even scarier, namely having to go down to Serie B if the problem proves to be so severe. Luckily Juventus don't lose their chance in Serie A next season and they can still compete again with other top teams to fight for the Scudetto. The only thing they regret is of course the Champions League place next season and they must be willing to play in Europe's lowest competition, namely the Conference League.
We can say that this year has been very difficult for Juventus. If they had not lost points, they could have finished the league in second place, but they lost points. Due to these points losses, they could not focus on the league after a while. Of course they wanted to be in UCL next year, but now they have to settle for the tournament they go to.
Juventus went ahead in the points table with a good number of points but again fell far behind.  Whether they can do better this year is doubtful. Juventus is not a bad team but because of their poor performance this year Napoli, Lazio, Inter, Milan have become challenging teams for them. this weakness they will not be able to overcome this year, so the chances of Napoli becoming champions this year are high

Budget: set it BEFORE you start gambling and stick to it.
Have a break from time to time, it is important to let your brain stop and consider.
Avoid drugs / drink as much as possible, they will make you loose some control innevitably.
Seek help if you feel you are no longer in control. Make a phone call to a friend or go out and speak with someone.
Anything else anyone can think of? Like... read this post before gambling? Tongue
All the points mentioned by you are true and effective and if you don't follow these strategies it can lead to gambling losses also big losses. When drinking alcohol, a person has no control over himself, so it is not possible for him to focus on gambling at that time. And if you don't take a break from gambling, people's brains become confused, so you can't win anything good from gambling
