Juventus was so impressive in all competitions they have just won against Milan it was a thought match but thanks to 2 goals in the last 10 minutes they grabbed the three points and now widened the gap between them and Napoli to 4 points so they will turn their focus on making it out against Real Madrid. I think that the strongest thing that Juventus have is let opposite side play for 80minutes and then they push in 10 minutes of game play to seal the win that is the reason for them being undefeated for the past 25 games winning 21 match from them that is great record that could help them them overcome Real Madrid but it will be diffecult to do so I prefer going to bet on over 2.5 goals Real Madrid have great names on offense while Juce should score at home.
Big game tomorrow ! Even tough both juventus and Real Madrid each won their league matches , it will never be an easy game. Defensive master versus attacking master , not sure what juventus would do at home , defending won't take them anywhere but it's feel like a suicide , yeah they would g in trouble if then they have to conceded first. I do believe it will ended up draw or under 2.5 goals not over , sorry I bet against you   Wink .
playing with attacking style against Real Madrid also very dangerous especially if Ronaldo play and i think Juventus will starting the game with carefully and possible Juventus playing with defence style and wait so indeed under 2.5 goals seems good options and if i'm not mistaken Juventus as host team and they also will attempts to not lost
That's why ... Under 2.5 goals are the most reasonable bet. 1-0 for juventus or 0-1 for Real Madrid , really hard to choose which one on money line so I'll just watch the game live then go betting for moneyline . that's all for now. Just one goal difference , I do believe in my guts.

Thank you Victor, i received my prize. Smiley would love to participate again in tournament. suggestions above are really good, you should increase minimum wager and rolls for qualification for future tournaments.

Congratulation on dumping me into the 6th rank ! How do you count the percentage? I tried to count but it just seems to not working out for me

If I deposit 0.02 btc and wager 0.01 at x2 then I won does this makes my percentage into 150 %? Im not sure how this thing is working out, clarification on this is appreciated btw lite

I think you get it wrong, based on my understanding about how the winning percentage is calculated then you will get 100% winning percentage only if you won 0.01 with x2 payout. Here is my simple understanding:
Your bet: 0.01
Payout: x2
Win amount: 0.01
Winning %: 0.01/0.01*100 = 100%

So of you want to get 150% winning percentage, you need to win it with x2.5 payout. The calculation will be:
Your bet: 0.01
Payout: x2.5
Win amount: 0.015
Winning %: 0.015/0.01*100= 150%

It means the higher payout(multiplier you use), the higher winning percentage you get. Correct me if I'm wrong about this. As per what I've done, I used payout x2.3 up to x3 in this tournament. Resulted with 126.8% winning percentage.
Actually, i think it would be 200%. since percentage is calculated like this total payout(s)/total bet(s). base payout acts as 100%.

0.02/0.01*100 = 200%  (x2 payout)

Of course you can't get 200% or above just in one go(unless one bets really high amount on high payout), first you have to reach minimum requirements 150 rolls and 0.05 BTC wager. you have to then calculate your total payouts/total bets to get percentage. Victor could you chime in please?

As per rules the calculation is win amount/bet amount, not payout/bet amount. If it works like what you think, then I'm sure I should have more than 200% winning percentage.Smiley because I was using martingale with  x2.3 - x3 multiplier and increase 100% on lose. What I understand is that win amount = the profit of the bet only, not win amount + bet amount = payout (which you use to calculate).

I'm totally confused lol. i had read this before, so i was thinking it's total payout/total bet!? i known it was meant for blackjack tournament, but shouldn't it be same for dice tournament?

It is based on win % (total payout/total bet*100) for you blackjack play during the specified dates.  The payout table is shown in the below link.
Here ... I show you my biggest multiplier

https://prnt.sc/izz6sf


Yet I didn't make a top 5 due forgot to calculate everything , I've wagered too much and even with my 100x payout , it's not get recovered. Not my luck, last time I won the first prize due only 5 player get qualified  Cheesy.

Its still a good investment because of its huge volatality and the growing craze day by day.Many feel that its a deflated bubble but i of the opinion that its giving chances to the buyers again to get in and reap some profits in the long term.Speculations are still there in the market that it may drop more, irrespective of that i m of the opinion that it will grow after the sufficient volume of buyers get in and the sellers volume decrease.
Bitcoin always be a good investment option for long term investment due the availability of the supply simply limited where this financial technology would urgently needed in the future, seriously the current cheap price of Bitcoin, you might will never see it again.
244  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitcoin will under 5000 within this month do you think so on: April 03, 2018, 01:11:10 PM
The chance is high cos its going down more and more every day.
I don't think so. For the last few months, bitcoin price is down down and down. I think it has no scope to down more. It may crsh a little bit more, but that will not reach at 5000k. Rather it can bounce back very soon since it's price is low for a very long time without any significant issue.
We have tested the dip to not dropped more than $6k , the deathcross seems failed as for the result we have passed the down trends and moving up continuously steady since yesterday. The buy pressure so far enough to says we are on track to recover to $10k soon, hopefully.
245  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is there any pvp betting game? on: April 03, 2018, 12:33:18 PM
I remember someone was making a pvp game where you could play against someone else and the winner gets the money. I haven't seen any of those around here for a while, I would love to play a skilled game where you can bet and the house takes a small percentage on each play. Anything like that with bitcoins? Or any other cryptocurrency for that matter.
Classic problem why there's no casino provide pvp games , it's always about how not profitable for the site provider and lack of interest. I would also love to play a game like pvp blackjack , pvp baccarat etc. not sure if that kind game exist nowadays , unless of course poker.
246  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Jackpot...... on: April 02, 2018, 10:47:34 PM
What about this one?

https://prnt.sc/izz6sf

It's crazy when the game gives you more and more luck to win on unbelievable high odds. Excited and dangerous at once. Anyone else have ever hit 100x but then busted to negative and so on the edge continue make you in pain. Cash the money out right after you win it , otherwise you'll never see the same a mount later.
247  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is the risk necessary to make a big profit? on: April 02, 2018, 09:52:41 PM
I agree with you. As they say, you will regret more not on the things that you do but on the things that you did not do. The strongest regrets will always be coming from the missed opportunities. These are the opportunities that presented themselves and yet were taken for granted for so many reasons. One of which is the fear of the unknown or uncertain outcome, the fear of taking risks. In crypto, risks are always present. But not taking a certain amount of risk will also not bring you somewhere. You will get stuck in your comfort zone, without progress.  
Well said , still you need to know and be ready about the worst scheme that could hit you anytime. Without responsibility , your action to take a high risk would only bring more problem. Just because you Didn't take an opportunity to make a big call with big risk inside , doesn't mean there's no progress , it's just the matter of life principle , specifically your own trading principle. Some people looking for small gain but steady and then compounded .

Final results have been posted.

Congratulations to all the winners. Winnings will be credited to your account within 24hrs.

Thank you to everyone that participated.

Thanks Victor. Congrats everyone! it seems my calculations were off lol, i thought i had enough percentage to secure #3 spot. well, i hope Victor improves the leaderboard (if he intends to do more tournaments  Wink), so we could compete better.

How do you really calculate it? OMG I got kicked out of top 5. The price for #6 is just so not worth it. It would be hard for the tournament incase things stay the same. Btw Victor , it would be nice if we could do this every week. Probably lower prizepool ? :Like 0.75 btc for each week instead of just one time 3 btc tournament

0.75 weekly is obviously attractive prizepool, but still it will be too much and wont be good for long term unless Victor increase the minimum wager. I can even say 0.75 prizepool for monthly tournament is more than enough to compete with other gambling sites.

Yeah right if you compare it to other site that doesnt even give any prize for tournament then this is very generous. The minimum wager as well as the mininum roll needs to be increased. I say that 0.5 btc and minimum of 500 rolls should be fine to make people wager longer and this give more exposure to the site as well
Higher requirement might could make victor happy but it's fair enough if the tournament held weekly. I believe the volume betting there would increased significantly.
250  Economy / Gambling / Re: COINROYALE.COM • Provably Fair • 1 BTC Bonus • 10% Casino Rebate on: April 02, 2018, 08:44:38 AM

It might not be possible right now but it could be in the future and Im sure victor will listen to our suggestion. The best thing to add here now is probably some timer countdown on the site for the tournament to end. If there is a live countdown then perhaps it will encourage people to get higher rank on the last minute like what I planned to take over the 3rd rank Smiley

This is a good suggestion.

Victor should consider this request for the next round competition to implement and I don't think it is so hard to do it.

This round to finish another six more hours go.

Live countdown timer is not really needed as long as there is a clear schedule when the competition ends. It is enough for you to manage when you are going to try to rank up because you know when will be the last minutes of the competition. Live leaderboard is still the main important thing in this kind of competition.
Anyway, the competition has ended an hour ago but the leaderboard is not updated yet. Curious to know the final leaderboard as there might be some significant movement from the participants in the last minutes.
Better to have both live countdown and a continuous leaderboard updates especially in the last day. But hey even though victor open for any suggestion to make the tournament better , victor might want create this kind tournament as simple as possible without have to cost a lot of time and work in it. Wish I make a big change in the last few minutes , I won big so fortunately due I'm on 7th and do allin bets several times  Grin. , wish we have the same good luck guys  Smiley Wink .
251  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2016/17 on: April 01, 2018, 09:27:48 PM
It was really saving goal from squarez and messi, who scored 2 goals in 2 min and saved Barcelona from loss and draw the match. Sevilla outperformed in their home ground but not able to finish it with victory.

Leganes vs valencia match hope that Leganes will take benefit of home ground, over 2.5 goal is a good bet for this match.
A bicycle kick from Luis Suarez and a late goal from messi makes Barcelona unbeaten run alive , 37 games jeez , outstanding achievement , don't know if it's because the classy of Barcelona or la Liga just lack of competitiveness . You might could imagine if they were play in English premier league . Btw Valencia won the game by single goal , boring game really , I watch it till the the end and won the over 3.5 cards, not a bad day at all.

Sometimes the more we encourage them or push them through this the more it sounds like it's scam to them. So better let their curiosity eats them and surely they'll be the one who'll approach you to teach them to invest in cryptos.

This is my way to encourage my friends and family to invest in, I'll let them chase me and their eagerness to earn decently as they see me living the way I dreamed of. Grin
Yeah it's happened to me too , they think it's just another multi level marketing that you want their money and you'll get the benefit. Seriously it's hard to explain to a traditional people , but not when you are talking with people who love tech , they get so excited easily, I've recruited some coworkers , they get the benefit and thanks to me. Spread it more and people will realize how precious Bitcoin it is.
253  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoins prices in march since launch on: April 01, 2018, 08:27:57 PM
it is important to understand that we will continue to have this roller coaster like market for some more time, probably even another 5 years. and that means price will go up crazy and then drop just as crazy. but the important result is that the price will be rising over all no matter what the short term ups and downs are.
Then there's nothing wrong to ask people to pay attention on how risky crypto investment right? The volatile market aren't something that common people handled easily. Even though the data provided op do exist , it means nothing when it comes to a free market like crypto. Just keep watching'em.
254  Economy / Gambling / Re: FORTUNEJACK.COM |Deposit 777 play with 1777 mBTC |Live Casino, Slots, Betting on: April 01, 2018, 07:47:09 PM
I would like to congratulate the winner of the 37 BTC in FortuneJack. If he would be reading this my only advise to him is to keep the 37BTC first until the price of Bitcoin appreciates in value. Yes it is worth a quarter million now but it can be more once it will re-test its all time high or even just wait for it to become 10,000$, your 37 BTC will be 370,000$ by that time. Good Luck and I hope you spend your money wisely.

If the person is addicted to gambling them mostly he/she may spend some or more money again in gambling because of the addiction. But if they are smart then they may take your advice and save some money for them first before spending again back in gambling. This kind of huge winning will happen once in a while in lifetime so people should make use those winnings wisely.
If we do try to read up on what FJ do say it is already an indirect way suggestion which is actually better to put up into investments.


Investing in the Future
The future is Bitcoin, so if you just won 37 BTC, you're inherently investing in the future. However, with all that extra capital, why not invest in altcoins, businesses or startups, stocks or retirement accounts? Why not liquidate it and let a high interest savings account make it grow, risk free? The sky is the limit!

Congratulations to the player who won.

Or they could just indirectly asked the player to gamble again and try their luck ( or maybe lose the bitcoin again to the site)? Has the player that won the amount withdraw it yet? from the bolded part , I can say that it seems the player hasnt withdraw it yet but that could be just my imagination based on the words.

Any idea on this?
Well , it's not our business to know wether is he cash them out or not. But it could be a boosting for fj rep if they announce and confirm that the player has successfully cashed out the 37 Bitcoin all at once. Insane winning I say, insane.
255  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: April 01, 2018, 07:06:41 PM
Man UTD got a easy win against swansea.Though Man UTD is far behind from Man City.

Arsenal played very good in last 25 minutes against stoke city and win by 3-0.I was shocked but it was a very entertaining match.

Spurs and Chelsea match was amazing Spurs beat them atlast.
Premier league title belong to Manchester city , now the battle for champions league spot also almost ends with Chelsea beaten at home , it was crucial game for both and looks like Spurs gonna qualify for champions league next season , no hope Chelsea , they need Spurs to lose 3 times or get draw 4 times in the rest of 7 matches, high odds for that.
256  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What is the best / hottest cryptocurrency to buy during the dip? on: March 29, 2018, 08:31:55 PM
I suggest you the Ethereum.Now the price of ethereum was only 400$,this is very cheap price.With 1000$ ,you can buy 2.5 ethereum and which is not possible in the bitcoin.Still now the price of bitcoin above 5000$,it's ten times of ethereum value.
It's the hardest moment to decide whether you have to start buying or waiting the storm stopped as it's looks like a long way to get the real dip, the price keep declining. So do with altcoins it difficult , sometimes you have to make a call similar to gambling in the end. But ethereum seems the strongest altcoin to consider in my top list.

how the win % calculated?
if someone starts with 0.05 BTC balance and in the end, he won more than 0.2 BTC
With just 300 bets and wagered more than 1.2 BTC

so how much the win% he got?

Total payout/total bet

Hey victor, could you send me a confirmation letter for the tournament? I signed up just recently and also registered to the tournament but no confirmation letter for the tournament has been sent yet. I PMed you for my credentials information

Btw this is a good chance to snap up the first place as it is less than 200 % for now
Welcome to the tourney cazkoo ! It's not that easy to get 200% since the winning percentage calculated based on winning amount/bet amount and you have to do 150 bets. Just give it a shot and come back tomorrow to see you listed in the leaderboard . Good luck!
258  Economy / Speculation / Re: I believe BTC is going to trend down to $5,000 whats your thoughts on: March 29, 2018, 10:22:41 AM
you will find that there are many layers of resistance points

mining income resistence point remains at around $8k (this is based on actual cost calculations not numbers picked out of a hat)
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3140327.msg32495804#msg32495804

day trading resistance point based on 6-12 month month lows.. is around $6k+ ($6.6k at the moment)

so take that info any way you please

but i do like how many grab a random number but cant back it up..

Thanks frank for that formula , u just show a different perspective to the people around here who usually just use fundamental as their primary analysis technique. Worth to try. I do believe the support are on $6k for now , would hard to break it and the resistance changed to $7.5k or so.
259  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Europa League/Champions League Lounge on: March 29, 2018, 09:42:23 AM
Uefa have introduced some new rules for the Champions league and Europa league from next season. They most notable one is that players who undergo January tranfer can still play in the knockout phase of the competition even though they have played for a different club in the group stages, which is before the January transfer window.

More here: http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/43555381

Rumors also say that there is an idea that uefa will change the old rule of the player turnover. Substitution of players generally can only be done 3 times only for 2 times 45 minutes. While the rumor will be added to 4 times. Anyway, this is still a rumor, we just wait for the rest.

It's not a rumour, guys. The upcoming regulation have been posted on the official UEFA website so I think it's pretty much confirmed that the new rules are set in stone. You could read more about the changes here: https://www.uefa.com/uefaeuropaleague/news/newsid=2546985.html#/


Quote
From the 2018/19 season, a fourth substitute listed on the match sheet may take part in knockout matches exclusively during extra time. This will not affect the other three substitutions.
plus more on the UEFA website.
A lot of changes ! After few years ago they change the qualification system now it's another big change. Not sure it could bring a good impact... Let's see next season. It helps big teams who have a tight schedule , they could have a lot of options now. Do you think it's fair enough?  Roll Eyes

What?? Danger zone.. That’s a good opportunity to buy more bitcoin then how you come up to call that way.. This doesn’t look bad for me at all,, it has been in this price range before and what the difference now.. It all looks similar to me.. The best name “the buyer/better zone”..

Those who buy at 18k to 10k below if a long term investors,, won’t take the price of today seriously.. And those who panic and sell are kittens into this kind of risk..
Well I won't blame those people who keep selling as they see on different view, it could be they can't afford to lose much more money, or they see the downtrend would continue at least until Google officially make their move on the next couple of months in June about how they could make a rule on crypto currency , how to control the number of scams caused etc. it could become a big impact considering nowadays new investors come from this search engine indirectly. The dip could be deeper , make sure you guys aware about it.
