An on Bismarck oh well, his solution to "the problem" was a quite direct one. There is an ancient German saying (Sei mein Bruder, sonst schlage ich dir den Kopf ein) - be my brother or I will bash your head". I can see no intention from the current RF government to be Germany's brother so....
Are you hinting that it was Russia who quarreled with Germany, and not vice versa, and these ten packages of sanctions generously sprinkled with Russophobic rhetoric are an unfortunate misunderstanding? Cute.  We will take half of the Western money invested in Russia as a penalty for this misunderstanding, and then we will come to collect our money that you stole. And you have to apologize. This is how it works when you're trying to scam Russia. Try not to miss the opportunity to accept this generous offer. I am not good at hinting. I am saying that the RF did not want to be friends by invading Ukraine and the Germans usually dislike that attitude. Both of them loose - guess who wins? Blah, blah Russophobia, the West is bad and rest of excuses to invade... you forgot to add a couple of Nazis, threat to use nukes... you are getting old I guess. On regards to taking other's money... well, you have already. It is called a sovereign default which the RF did about a year ago. Not half, but all. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_Russian_debt_default If you want to know what happens afterwards, ask Argentina (they may charge you for answering, they are in need). What you can do is to take your money out of "occident" - take your money and find somewhere else to put it. Try the Ruble and RF bonds, I heard it is being accepted in at least 5 countries for payment. Just so you do not miss this in the translation: the RF money is where it is (outside the RF mainly and converted to USD) because it is the right option, not for generosity. I have an even better suggestion: Put it in Chinesse bonds.. in Yuan. What could go wrong?? |

Sufficient to say that many people even in the UK call London "Londongrad" or "Moscow Upon Thames" for the immense fortunes that the RF kleptocrats have deposited in the form of empty flats and Victorian houses in Chelsea. Who would want to destroy such a expensive beauty?
Dunno...maybe those people who got their "expensive beauty" frozen/stolen? Otto von Bismarck once said: Do not expect that once you take advantage of Russia's weakness, you will receive dividends forever. Russians always come for their money. And when they come - do not rely on the Jesuit agreements you signed, supposedly justifying you. They are not worth the paper they are written on. Therefore, it is worth either playing fair with the Russians, or not playing at all. Branko, your naivety is really moving. Assets frozen? Not even half of them, even the Siberian oil is being transferred ship to ship in international waters all over Southeast Asia. Assets stolen? None, there is no legal way to steal them at the moment. be.open, you are repeating yourself in your posts but I agree: Whatever you sign-off with the RF governments means very little, starting with the Budapest agreements and continuing with any other agreement. That in itself is more of a problem for the RF than for others, since instead of just signing an agreement, they need to provide plenty evidence of compliance. Having a poor reputation is not really a good asset. An on Bismarck oh well, his solution to "the problem" was a quite direct one. There is an ancient German saying (Sei mein Bruder, sonst schlage ich dir den Kopf ein) - be my brother or I will bash your head". I can see no intention from the current RF government to be Germany's brother so.... EDITED: Ukraine seems to be aiming to stablish bridgeheads across canals and large bodies of water. They would not want to interrupt a thunder run just to cross a river would they? |

I repeat, nothing is happening, nothing planned. Drink well, go parade. Speaking of which.... nice T-34, but my favourite part of the parade was the air show - featuring 300 state of the art and fully invisible planes that I am sure were there. Unless there were not, in which case... it speaks a lot about the loyalty of the air force and how sure is Putin of having something flying over him.
As far as I know, in Moscow and the region, the "closed sky" mode was activated to prevent possible provocations. It seems that more than 20 drones were landed by means of electronic warfare and several drones were shot down by drone strikers. The parade went smoothly, with the exception of complaints from Muscovites about the difficulty of calling a taxi, due to jamming of the GPS satellite navigation signal. Didn't you like Yars mobile strategic complexes at the parade? More serious than tanks. So this is you confirming that the RF has no invisible aircrafts and there were none in the parade? Be careful, you may get a few years in jail for speaking badly of the Orc army. The fact that they had to close the sky should tell you something about the difference between the "air supremacy" you have been claiming in your posts versus the "hype supremacy" that is the official press in the RF. Oh, I love the Yars. I am sure that they work as well as everything else in your country and they will deliver a high level of "hype superiority" if not "hype supremacy". But just remember, there is no way you use one of those and do not get an equivalent response back. My take is that if it is the US, they would not even have to use nukes for a very complete retaliation. Most Russians on telegram war channels ask for those to hit London, not Kiev Even ordinary Russians know who's pulling the strings Oh Branko, you are so funny ... you have not yet asked yourself why London is the last place Putin would destroy - that is, if the ICBMs of the RF army have any fuel on them and can actually take off without all the electronics that have been sold along the way. Sufficient to say that many people even in the UK call London "Londongrad" or "Moscow Upon Thames" for the immense fortunes that the RF kleptocrats have deposited in the form of empty flats and Victorian houses in Chelsea. Who would want to destroy such a expensive beauty? https://www.economist.com/britain/2022/03/05/the-rise-and-fall-of-londongrad. But it was only in the 1990s that Londongrad began to emerge, featuring newly minted billionaires and a gaggle of flunkeys to serve them. I am sure you understand that the debates on the public RF TV calling for nuking everything and invading everything and chanting the glories and capabilities of the RF arsenal are just for the local braindeads and keyboard based generals of imaginary armies. Come on, be an adult and, at this point, ask yourself why Putin is still alive? Do you think that if the US wanted the guy dead he would already be? And there is a good reason why the US wants Putin to remain where he is. Most Russians on telegram war channels ask for those to hit London, not Kiev
Even ordinary Russians know who's pulling the strings
Patience is a virtue. NATO-country populations are starting to get things figured out and getting restive, but they need more softening up via the Ukraine-war treatment. If next winter is a hard one, that will expedite the process. The Poles, and probably the Baltics, will never get it figured out. So happens that these are also the ones which also need some property line adjustments for a 'better Europe' moving forward. The trick is going to be to get Polish forces to set foot in Ukraine formally. Once that trap is set, blitzkrieg right down the the Polish/Ukrainian border. If the Poles can be induced to fire from the Polish side, then poof! No more Article 5. If the rest of the European populations are sufficiently pissed about NATO mistakes and grifts, unhappy with Polish idiocy, and genuinely concerned about how far things might progress in their direction, they would tend to 'understand' that Russia/White-Russia is reacting to an attack from Poland. Hopefully the people would, en-mass, decide that desolving NATO is vastly preferable to risking the end of the world in support of the rabid Poles. I believe that the Russians would be just fine having a rather large but land-locked RumpPolKrainistan centered where they are now (which so happens to be suspiciously situated over the old 'pale of settlement'.) It would serve as dumping zone for Nazis and other associated creeps. The important thing would be to have direct transit points to other countries for transport of goods, energy, etc, which bypasses (South and North) the garbage heap so they cannot control and tax trade. I'll bet that Russia would be very happy to stop right there and get back to building up their country since that seems to be what the are most interested in at this time. Yes, on that we agree. Patience is a virtue. One can spend a whole life waiting for somethings to happen. Or two lives... or ten generations. |

Meanwhile, there are rumors, which I can neither confirm nor deny, that as a result of one of the missile strikes, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Zaluzhny was eliminated. At least he hasn't appeared in public for about a month. Perhaps this is one of the reasons for the delay of the Ukrainian counteroffensive.
Meanwhile, nothing has happened in Bakhmut. RF troops north and south of the city went for a smoke right the moment a few tanks, which turned up to be Ukrainian tanks where passing by to make the weekly shopping in a nearby supermarket. After nothing happening at all, the RF troops found themselves with above 60 loses due to COVID, hart strokes and old age (so, not because the tanks ran over them or anything). Also, mysteriously and due to no particular reason, around 1 km2 in the south and 3 km2 lost in the north of Ukrainian territory were returned to Ukraine. I repeat, nothing is happening, nothing planned. Drink well, go parade. Speaking of which.... nice T-34, but my favourite part of the parade was the air show - featuring 300 state of the art and fully invisible planes that I am sure were there.

I think they call this " Shock and Ah, FUCK! My ammo!" https://www.bitchute.com/video/JUTSR6sBs9jj/Still waiting on that 'greatest counteroffensive.' Is it a stealth offensive, or is Ukraine now waiting for the ground to freeze over next winter? Good thing you are waiting, it seems that others in the front got a bit nervous and decide to get in civilian clothes and escape to Crimea. The good thing is that nothing is going to happen. You are right, there is no counter offensive, drink, sleep, enjoy your victory day and look up in case there is anything falling from the sky. Not attack is planned (wink wink). |

Today 9th May parade happened in Moscow. Not in Kyiv as someone would like to see in his wet dreams. But this year parade was scaled down significantly. I'm wondering, why, what happened? Instead of showing new tanks like Armata, they only had one tank in aparade - T-34 from WW2 times. Some armored vehicles and few RS-24 YARS ICBM's. No air force display. In total, 51 vehicles, probably lowest numbers in many years. It looks that something happened. I can only insert this meme which relfects situation perfectly;  Meanwhile, Ukraine made some counteroffensive operations in Bakhmut and regained 3 km² of city (not official information). And Prigozhin continue to cry. I would like to see the T-34. It is really a miracle if they managed to put one working WW II tank together and manage to find someone capable of driving it. If those news are confirmed it is a very relevant fact. Not as much for gaining terrain in Bakhmut, which may or not matter, but because it implies a massive withdrawal of troops to the south. RF chief Orcs are scared this time. |

Can south Africa fight Russian, because if South Africa arrest Putin they will be ambush in south Africa because they don't have equipment to fight Russian when Russian come to them, and all the African will be affected, let south Africa maintain silence so that the fight of Russia and Ukraine will not affect them because they have no amenities of fight
My guess? If they arrest Putin someone else takes his place and thanks South Africa. It is a kleptocracy, there is no loyalty and anyone could replace the guy and keep the war with Ukraine going just as badly. The RF could do absolutely zero in military terms against S.A. They simply can't even if they wanted. Nuking and the like is a game with no winners. |

something I would say should do any European country,let them live in that "imperial Russia in their fairy lands".
Unfortunately, this desire is practically unrealizable. No matter how much you want russia to remain a closed system, to stew in its own shit, this is very likely not to happen. The problem is not that no one gives a damn anymore, the problem is that russia is not limited to the destruction of its territory and the lives of its citizens. They can't just stay within their boundaries and mind their own business. They either openly invade foreign lands, or crap in other countries with the help of hacker attacks, interference in politics and bribing officials. And these problems will not be solved if the average Europeans are indifferent. Unfortunately, attention is coming to russia, because it demands this attention with those cruel methods that it has been using for more than several decades. The system is rotten inside out. How would anyone justify that they have been trying to take a small city from a in theory much inferior adversary during nearly a year? How about a convoy going to Kiev that simply cannot move because the fuel is not there? What about the RF asking Iran for drones and North Korea for munitions? There isn't anything in the RF that is "true" in any sense of the word, and that starts with their leaders. At first Ukraine denied these news, but after some time they officially confirmed it. They told many times that Kinzhal missiles is impossible for them to intercept with systems that they have and it caused lot of problems for them. So, it's big news. It is important certainly. These missiles were kind of the answer from China and the RF to the Carrier Groups of the USA, currently 11 in active if I remember correctly. If a Patriot can intercept, let's say with a 60% chance a modern Khinzal, Sea based systems, usually x 10 times better, can do it too. It is a game changer to have a carrier group at 200 miles from your coast and not being able to do much about it (other than nuking it I guess). patriot is too expensive, they should shoot it down with shotgun or jar of marmelade ... They probably could - if you listen to official propaganda, the RF could send an invisible missile capable of knocking on a door and ask "trick or treat" while dancing The Swam Lake. The problem comes when the tank does not move because Boris sold the fuel, the troops get sent to a kill zone because some Capitan Igor is too afraid to tell that the recognisance unit is formed of zero vehicles (all sold) and the explosive reactive armour fails because Piotr sold it and filled it with pebbles. Patriot is too expensive, unless it blocks a missile that is going to hit something really expensive. You know, I think that people claiming the military capabilities actually believe they have them because they have been lied from minute zero by nearly everyone involved in the process of "creating the capability". Russia is an isolated country now which no one gives a damn about them anymore and I say damn to just not say something worse.They are the only responsible to such failure,they have lost people,they have lost ammunition and tanks,fighters and all sort of military device in this conflict.They have been put under heavy sanctions and the average Joe in Russia is feeling the consequences,no one in US or Europe looks to any average Russian with empathy anymore and some of these countries are also closing borders with Russia,something I would say should do any European country,let them live in that "imperial Russia in their fairy lands".
I am looking toward Russia, or more accurately the economic union of which they will play a leading role, with a lot of interest for the future. The 'collective West' looks to me like dead-end economically, functionally, and morally. The West has a long way to go before hitting rock-bottom and there is increasingly little chance that anything will arrest their fall. I will say that Russia, like so many other countries, seems to have had little or no concept of so-called 'liberty' among the general population. It does seem to me that most people are very uncomfortable in a situation where there is no 'great leader' or whatever. Not that a huge number of people in any society are much different, especially these days, but it does seem the case that most societies in most places have never had a point in time when any form of 'freedom' as very widespread and there is precious little aspiration toward achieving such a state. If anything 'freedom' seems to be a dirty/scary word. My upbringing in my culture actually did value and aspire to such a state of being and I am genuinely chauvinistic toward people who don't value independence and freedom although I don't discount the advantages of a population being wired for what is effectively slavery. My guess is that I would not be very happy in Russia (or almost any other place really.) Economically speaking they would need at least 40 years to catch up with the developed world so I wonder why are some people still saying Russia is winning the war when they have already lost it in a lot of very important fronts.
That doesn't comport with the observation the Russians are winning handily in Ukraine on almost all fronts, and especially in terms of the technical capabilities of their advanced weapons systems. That is not what would be expected of an economy and a society which doesn't allocate resources in a sensible way. At least not one which is rich in resources. ... Your observation does not comport with any real observation. |

Was he really planning on being there anyway? I doubt it. Especially after the recent attempt on his life. Still, this sends a little bit of a message that his actions have consequences on the international stage so it's a good thing. I'm sure Putin appreciates the heads up as well that if he were to go there would be trouble. All in all, it seems this is a positive thing for everyone, unless Putin had some sort of desire to be there. I suspect that's not the case, but you never know. Yes he was very interesting in attending, Putin is in dire need of international recognition and would have liked to have a picture with the "block opposing the US". Now that I think of it, I wonder what short of indirect route would have Putin's plan follow to get there avoiding the air space of all signatories of the treaty that may put him in jail. There has been no attempt on Putin's life, that is a lie from the official propaganda. Putin was not in the Kremlin when the drones struck near the flag (if you are referring to that as an "attempt"). It is nearly impossible to kill anyone other than by mistake doing such a thing. Yes, I am sure he likes the heads up, as South Africa appreciates that he has installed Zoom in his computer, so that they do not have to arrest him and create a problem for themselves. I believe that the arrest warrant is primarily a moral matter[...]
They know that they cannot bring Putin by force [...]
They cannot bring Putin to justice for now. But if there is a coup, whoever takes power may send him as a peace offering and at the same time not having to hang him. It is something more dangerous for the guy than a mere "moral judgement." |

Also, it there is some photo evidence that the Orcs are using banned weapons in Bakhmut such as Phosporous / Termite munitions. A dangerous path to follow.
Phosphorus weapons are not used in Bakhmut, you confused them with 9M22S or 9M28S magnesium shells launched from Grads. Magnesium shells have a number of advantages over obsolete and long-decommissioned phosphorus shells - they have a much higher combustion temperature, they are easier to store without the risk of self-ignition, they cannot be extinguished by cutting off the supply of oxygen, and they are not prohibited by the Geneva Convention. It is important certainly. These missiles were kind of the answer from China and the RF to the Carrier Groups of the USA, currently 11 in active if I remember correctly. If a Patriot can intercept, let's say with a 60% chance a modern Khinzal, Sea based systems, usually x 10 times better, can do it too. It is a game changer to have a carrier group at 200 miles from your coast and not being able to do much about it (other than nuking it I guess).
Shit, it seems now the Russians will have to spend two whole Khinzals on one aircraft carrier. I really hope that when you have to make the accounts of "that little business you run and does not allow you to go to the front" better than this one. It means that you would need to spend your whole production on missiles of one or two years to stand a 5% chance of landing one of them in an aircraft carrier. If you do not want to work out the math, just consider that you needed 18 to land 3 in the whole of Ukraine. The pictures do not look at all like grad launched munitions. Glad to know you consider these as allowed - you RF friends at the front will thank you when they get similarly burnt (it cuts both ways you know). Recent news about someone smoking in the wrong place south of Yekaterinburg - EDITED to add - Just if anyone wonders why someone was smoking in one of the largest ammunition depots of the RF, it may very well be linked to Putin asking to make a re-count of all available ammunition in the country - hint: the stock in Yekaterinburg is now officially "lost due to a fire" - not that they were to find it completely empty due to some Orcs selling it in the black market during the last 10 years?? I know that in the Tik Tok area, watching a 1 hour video is not in style, but if anyone really wants to know why the RF is underperforming by any standard, this is the place to go: https://youtu.be/i9i47sgi-V4It explains corruption and how it works at all levels and how it ends up with the joe in the trench getting a gun that does not fire, a body armour without the plates and a few more dachas in the Caspian. |

Hello from Ukraine! I am not entirely sure if I am breaking any rules by posting this information in this thread, but if I am, I apologize and ask the administrators to move this post to the appropriate thread. I represent the team of military volunteers "Sho Ti Dyadya" who provide support to our army. We are from Zaporizhia, which is only 40 kilometers away from the front line. We are the ones who help our servicemen to reclaim our lands with minimal losses. We have donors from the cryptocurrency community, and perhaps others might want to support our work and fight. https://uafree.org is the website of our foundation, which displays the intermediate results of our work. It is available in Ukrainian, English, German and Polish. https://www.facebook.com/shotidyadya is our Facebook page (unfortunately, only in Ukrainian) with daily reports on the funds raised and the work done. I have been a member of this forum for over 5 years and I believe that there are people in our community who can support our fight for survival. Thank you in advance. Perhaps this is not exactly the right place to ask for donations. I can already tell you that you would need to provide quite a bit of a proof that is legit, since this does not seem any of the accounts officially published by the Ukrainian government many months ago.On the war itself, it seems that Ukraine is claiming that a Patriot stopped a Kinzhal. To be honest, the missile is an air launched version of the Ishkander and can reach hypersonic speeds. However the true hypersonic capability requires a very high degree of manoeuvrability, which makes it very difficult to intercept, very difficult to know where it is heading and thus a real threat. Russia is claiming that capability, but it is simply not there. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2023/05/06/russia-ukraine-war-patriot-kinzhal/ba39c340-ebeb-11ed-869e-986dd5713bc8_story.htmlAir Force commander Mykola Oleshchuk said in a Telegram post that the Kinzhal-type ballistic missile had been intercepted in an overnight attack on the Ukrainian capital earlier in the week. It was also the first time Ukraine is known to have used the Patriot defence systems.
“Yes, we shot down the ‘unique’ Kinzhal,” Oleshchuk wrote. “It happened during the night time attack on May 4 in the skies of the Kyiv region.” The information is always to be taken with a pinch of salt, but what I have read about this missile... welll, it is very fast as it would be very fast a ICBM warhead falling, but not undetectable and certainly subject to being intercepted. I am also thinking that the US was reluctant to provide Patriots to Ukraine precisely because they tend to play the opposite game: the US army not claim capabilities that they do know they have and provide limited information about the test. I am sure the US would rather have the RF not being sure about the Patriot capabilities. The RF instead speaks above what is factual and then find themselves believing their own shit. Also, it there is some photo evidence that the Orcs are using banned weapons in Bakhmut such as Phosporous / Termite munitions. A dangerous path to follow. On the Wagner Butcher in Chief... OMG... they guy appears in full cammo with 8 machinegun magazines over his chest like if he did any of the fighting... super-lame. |

The RF is "evacuating" people massively from Zapo, we are talking more than ten localities. I wonder why? ... Nah, I do not wonder why to be honest. Occupation authorities announced evacuation from 18 settlements in Zaporizhzhia region, including Tymoshivka, Smyrnove, Tarasivka, Orlyanske, Molochansk, Bilmak, Pryshyb, Tokmak, Mala Belozirka, Vasylivka, Velyka Belozirka, Dniprorudne, Mykhaylivka, Kamyanka-Dniprovska, Enerhodar, Polohy, Kinski Razdory, Rozivka |

Part of the RF troops (oh, what the heck... ORCS) positioned in the south near Zaporilla have been moved to cover the banks along the Dniper after the attempts (may I say fake attemps?) of crossing the river and establishing a bridgehead. This stretches the troops and the reserves in the area a forces a longer logistics chain.
To simplify, the Ukrainians seem to be creating openings in the line before committing to a more decisive action. It is also happening in the delta of Dniper, obviously, under a heavy contested environment - nothing is going to be easy. Hoever, stretching the RF troops in a longer line is better, and moving them around responding to minor attacks is a way of making then waste valuable fuel.
Also, recent attacks on fuel depots in Crimea and other locations, along with the damaged McPutin's Kerch Bridge will make the fleet in the Black Sea less able to support from the sea. Overall, I would say that some preparation is taking place, yet I would expect to see much more over the next two weeks.
Happy 9th of May! And do not forget to look to the sky from time to time... just in case you know.
I think that the air battle should be balanced by providing Ukraine with a longer range missile. The RF airborne orcs have too much advantage. A few Swedish Grippen with Meteor missiles would come very handy. Maybe Putin can do something, like pushing Sweden harder to join NATO?

Yes, gamblers want to have unrestrained fun, but that would lead to disaster, so we need to exercise our self-control to avoid that outcome, but by doing so we are no longer unrestrained, so gamblers need to strike a balance which can be difficult for many of them to get it right and in fact many never do, which is why we see some people out there becoming addicted to gambling, as even if they want they fail to restrain themselves when they gamble. Yes, I already understand what you mean and indeed most gamblers play for fun without any restrictions and self-control. But there are also many gamblers who have become addicts and have lost many rights because they forgot about this. But actually we don't need to think too much about those who are already addicts because at least we have tried to keep reminding and giving directions so they can become responsible gamblers. For your opinion on this one, I totally agree, friend, and from your statement, it is indeed from what is happening to many gamblers in this era. There is a way to Play with all the Debauchery and all the Self-control that you Want, and yes, it is very possible without becoming Addicted, and it is First to choose the amount of Money that you Want to lose,after them, for Example,if the Person wants To lose 200usd,from there it cannot be Passed, and that deposit is given Free rein to the casino and when it is done they can play with all the Auto-Control and the Question that I will be in that Once that Money has Been spent either losing, Because it is the Law that no type of deposit is Made because what he was Willing to lose was Spent,if he Played and did not take Advantage of it, it is Already the player's Problem. Yes, allocating a budget of maximum loses is really essential for nearly every player, as there is always a good reason to do more, play more and be more ambitious during the gameplaying. However, many times people indulge despite having set those limits for themselves so I usually would recommend to have someone having a look at what you are doing to help you with the addition. |

No one can complete a wagering requirement that is so high only by being patient but they need to be extremely lucky in order to reach that threshold since they will need to win significantly high amounts in order to keep playing different games and even if they keep losing, some of their balance will still remain that they can withdraw after the requirements have been met.
Wagering of $5k is very high so it is very difficult for a small and nonprofessional gambler to fulfill it. because if the luck is bad and a gambler keeps losing gambling then he has to lose huge amount of funds to make up this wagering. this is a really unfair wagering requirement. Wagering requirement without any kind of deposit bonus means forcing it on someone so such gambling site can never be a good and reputable casino site. Even a professional gambler won't be able to fulfill requirements that are too high since gambling is not about professionalism and even a professional gambler has to go through losses and streaks of losses. So someone who is in the process of trying to complete a wagering requirement is most likely to lose all their bankroll or most of it in between the process. So it is outright unfair if a casino has a wagering requirement of more than 1x for a deposited amount, if they are giving a bonus with the deposit and have the wagering requirements on that, that's understandable. That may be by design, that is, intended. The site may want players that certainly loose more than win and they are not as confident in their site, system and security as to leave that to the good fortune, but rather implement a withdrawal requisite that makes sure that no matter what, they always have the winning side or else the money stays there. |

Reading another post, it crossed my mind that AIs and particularly ChatGPT could potentially be trained with a large samples of games played by poker champions and then put it to auto-play with amateur on-line players. If this is successful, it could mean the end of human on-line poker playing except perhaps for the world masters and the like. Has anyone tried? Would it be possible??
No, I've tried playing cards/poker with the GPT Chatbot/Chat service, damn the robot is only programmed to answer what humans have entered, AI technology really can't guess and answer something that hasn't happened in the future, that's the weakness, I think GPT Chat is not a real threat to poker gambling or other games. In my experience, using Chat GPT in poker, I asked about the opponent's card, what type of card was in the opponent's hand. Al answered, club and spade, ehh it turns out that the opponents issued diamond and heart cards, since then I no longer trust GPT Chat and don't want to have anything to do with this technology, he answered but lied. I think you are asking the wrong question to be honest. The AI has no more ability to detect what is in the opponents hand than you or a cat or a dog. The right question to ask is what decision will most likely achieve better results under a given scenario. Best players use a lot of tactics and statistically based gameplaying, something that the AI can learn, |

I think that AI coming to the gambling industry can do a lot, considering that we also don't know what the development of AI will be like in the future. If AI is developed in other businesses and receives attention from many businesses, AI will be developed for the gambling business. Especially with the many creative ideas that can emerge after the development of AI in other businesses has progressed rapidly. The application of AI for each business depends on the business owner. If AI can be more profitable for business owners, they will try to apply it while asking for customer suggestions and criticism.
For a gambling business, maybe Al is currently only used to assist them in a customer service or customer service chat where later Al will answer all complaints or questions from customers. But it seems that we really don't know how Al will develop in the future but expecting more and relying too much on Al is not a good thing. If it is said that it is profitable for casino business people, it seems that it is indeed profitable because it can be more helpful and saves work that must be done by the service team, it's just that the team still has to monitor and sort out what kind of problems must be solved because Al certainly can't solve all problems which exists. I've seen some AI on YouTube from some youtubers who are curious but they can't really determine what they want, the AI they've posted tell them that they can't make predictions, but I think they're asking the wrong questions, because the AI makes many Get an idea that things can go on a perfect path and win or achieve what you want, but AIs do not have the ability to bet and win, but that is for now, what an AI can do is a lot Beyond what is a simple casino game, that for an AI should be nothing. I guess it would be possible to ask an AI to decipher the code of a slot machine and to be honest, I have met some Chinese guys who kind of get some partial success at doing it manually, so I do not see why an AI correctly programmed could not, with a sufficient number of parameters and information, achieve also a degree of success at breaking the codes. |

Like you said, the casinos aren't to blame, whether it be for addiction or whatever, like other businesses out there, the casinos owners are also running their business, and who ever chooses to create an account and gamble on a particular casino did so on his or her own freewill, he or she was not forced, and whoever is gambling should be matured enough to know how to control him or herself from getting addicted.
And again, promotion is very legal for every legitimate business out there, the fact casinos run promotion has nothing to do with gamblers getting addicted, addiction is majorly a fruit of lack of self control, not a fruit of promotion ran by the casino.
It would be very strange if a company didn't do promotions, including casinos. How do you tell people they exist when they're not promoting anything? lol I can't deny that there are still pros and cons in certain circles. But it all comes back to our own assessment, I also won't blame people who in the end they get addicted to gambling, because of course there are causes and effects. But again and again I will say that there is no compulsion here. We can ask gamblers directly, did they come of their own volition or by force. The casinos will always seek the way to attract people to do many things, among those things is to play and play, I cannot say that the bonuses sometimes harm us, but they do harm if you only want to get money from a casino, but if you want to play regardless of whether you win or not, then it is the best option you can have, because that is how you can play more, because the bonuses are more money, but not the withdrawable money, but for the player to have fun,so that depends on The way the player sees it, if he sees it that way to have fun, it is the best casino in the world with the best promotions,but if the player just Wants to win, he will see it as taking his money. Yes, casinos will try to get players playing as much as possible, just as food manufacturers keep increasing the sugar content of the food to make us junkies of it. It is thus for everyone to decide if they can really deal with game in a responsible manner or they would need to do something more radical, like stop playing for a while or play socially to make sure they do not loose it. |
