As per the ICC Men's team ranking, India has become the number 1 team in all cricket format. Earlier they were ranking 2nd in ODI, after yesterday's win they are now the number one team. The match between Australia and India was dominated by the Indian team.

There were issues with the Indian fielding still they manage to win. SKY changed his style of batting, he was not that agressive and was going after the lose balls. His partnership with KL Rahul made the win look easy for India.

Shami's excellent bowling helped India to restrict the Australian batters from giving them a good target. Mohali is know for high score and it did suprised me that Australia was not able to score 276 runs. Next match will be played tomorrow, it won't be easy for Australia to defeat India.
1022  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Never gamble in front of your kids. on: September 22, 2023, 09:35:24 AM
I'm sharing this because I saw this issue with my kiddo who was once watching me gamble at a website playing blackjack and she started asking me more about the game. Then one day, she wanted to play it herself and asked me if she can go for it and I said "no, it's not your legal age to go for such games". So, it's better to keep our kiddos away from gambling and let them focus on their studies, else it'd actually ruin everything for the whole family if the kid takes the wrong path.

Children are innocent souls who tend to imitate their parents. They have a curious mind, the main reason they ask questions all the time. If your child sees you gambling or anything illegal for her age accidentally, they won't ask any questions. If that is not the case then what happened to you would happen to every parent. What you did was the right thing to answer her question and inform her about the legal age. In the future when she reaches her legal age she can make the decision.

My recommendation to you is to stop gambling when she is around in the house. Since it is her growing years it is better to indulge with her in other activities when she is in the house. It would create an impression that her father is no longer active in gambling or has stopped gambling. It will help her to concentrate on her studies and daily activities rather than thinking about it.

It's good that Brave reward is coming back in India. But honestly I am not much excited after learning that Zebpay is going to partner with them. I personally want to avoid all Indian exchanges at any cost. Zebpay is definitely an Indian exchange and strongly tied with the government compliance. So I will continue with Crome I guess.

Brave should have chosen a decentralised or non-Indian exchange for their reward program. They could have received better response from the userbase.

That is correct they could have partnered with other platforms where KYC is not required. The problem would be the Indian government and its law. If they need to operate and promote their product the would need their customers to pass KYC, as they would be distributing crypto to those eligible.

If it was INR then they won't need a cryptocurrency exchange as the payment would credit the bank account. The reward plan is similar to Google Adsense. I still agree zebpay is not the partner they should have considered. There were other exchanges like Wazirx with whom they could have partnered.
1024  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ICC WORLD CUP 2023 ACTUAL DISCUSSION THREAD! on: September 22, 2023, 07:36:27 AM
India is resting their main players and fielding second string team tho. I guess this monkey balancing alright atm.

I don't know how Ash Anna gets into the picture before any WC LOL. He wasn't in the race for the 2020 t-20 WC squad but got in and here again, one unfortunate injury to Axar and Chadwin gets another shot. Not complaining, just pointing out his luck. Another story for WTC finals tho lol

India is not only resting their main player but has changed the Captain too. One good performance by KL Rahul and he is back in the team with a bang. Interesting selection of players and Captain for the first two ODI by the BCCI, it won't be that easy for this new team against Australia. Ashwin is a good ODI bowler and a good batter in the lower order. Yup, his luck does help him when he needs it more, last time it was the T20 World Cup and this time it might be the ODI World Cup.

The odds are just in favor of Australia for today's match. The match starts in just a few minutes from now, weather prediction is sunny. So, we could see the full 50-over match today.  I expected Sanju Samson to get a chance in these three bilateral series and for now, his future looks beak in the main squad for all formats of cricket.

True but to be fair to India. Justin Trudeau started this diplomatic mess and now India is going on the offensive with this visa ban move. I also think Canada might not follow the same route because of various reasons. One of em is that Indian students make up for like 40% of international students in Canada and contribute about $7-9 billion per year.

The revenue generated by Indian students is big and I have heard that the fee structure for them is on the higher side than the locals. Trudeau made a mess of diplomatic relations by bringing in his personal ego after his humiliation at the G20 summit. Imagine if Canada were to ban visa applications, many students would apply for higher education in the US. Already Mahindra and Essar Steel have withdrawn from upcoming projects in Canada others might follow.  If the opposition party comes to power in the next Canadian election, then relations with India may become normal. As of now, Canada has not withdrawn its pension fund from the Indian stock market, if it does then companies like Paytm, and Kotak Bank will get hammered.
1026  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin miners energy usage has exceeded 50%, where is Elon? on: September 22, 2023, 06:54:20 AM
I agree he has the proven capability of influencing the crypto market, if he honors his word then the current market condition will change. We can only wait and watch when Tesla will start accepting Bitcoin. If he is bluffing then the Bitcoin community would look like fools who were begging him to accept Bitcoin.

He is also a businessman and a good one, he will look into the current scenario before taking any decision. The positive outcome of this news would be that Bitcoin emission is going down and the hash rate is increasing. A piece of positive news now might trigger a short-term bull run before the halving.
1027  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Betting significant amount on: September 21, 2023, 06:32:18 AM

I always bet all-in which is my remaining bankroll that is significant amount for me on a 25% win chance rate bet on dice game. My heart palpitates during this bet and I really love the intense feeling. Most of the time I lose on this but it's really worth it if I win since I recover my original bankroll plus sweet profit of 20% of my bankroll.

Are you doing this intense gambling experience by betting significant amount of your bankroll? This is insane but worth it if you are a thrill seeker for entertainment.

It is indeed an extremely risky move and sure it will race your heart. It would certainly give you a high-intensity adrenaline kick if you win. The chance of which is 75% lesser if you think it in the other way. At the moment you are running for the 25% chance and if you are happy with it then you can continue. This is an unsustainable approach over time and you need to keep track of your bankroll.  

The correct way would be to stop after a certain loss limit as your method won't help you to recover your losses. In my opinion, this is a risky approach over time, it may result in financial loss and therefore you need to keep track of your bankroll.  
1028  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: The excitement of the bull run news on: September 21, 2023, 06:14:07 AM
A bull run begins from a bear market, like today this year. It does not start after a halving because halving is only a tip of iceberg but without a bear market that lasts long to wash the market out, a bull run will never come.

To have a bull run, the market must get rid of weak hands from the past bull run, last market cycle and reduce selling pressure in a new bull run. Halving helps to get more new investors and their capital, to increase buying demand but at the same time, bull run will be more easily and hotter when weak hands already washed out or liquidated.

You are right after the end of the bear cycle, the bull cycle starts but what determines the end of the bear cycle? The halving determines it and there are other factors that are also responsible for it. Historically after every halving we have seen the bull run, which runs for a period of a year, and then the bear market starts.

When the last bull run happened it was the institutional investors who were purchasing Bitcoin. They are known as diamond hands and those who were selling cannot be called weak hands as they were making a profit. Weak hands become active more when the market is in the bear cycle or if the volatility increases.

Hello and Welcome to the forum. I visited your website and found a lot of interesting content, that I have not seen in any other casino review website. I am referring to the learn, menu where I found a link to the crypto wallets for gambling. You have an interesting recommendation list, except for Electrum and Trezor I do not think any other wallets should be used. That is my point of view and you can agree or disagree with it. Overall your casino review website is very good and I hope to see more reviews on it.

Welcome to the forum! I was trying to access the casino and found out that my country is restricted. I had to use a VPN to access the casino and found that all major countries fall under the restricted country list.

It's good to hear that you're considering using their services for the upcoming Cricket World Cup matches. Is there anything specific you're looking for in a betting platform or any features you'd like to see when you place your bets for the World Cup?

Regarding my initial investigation on how to deposit altcoins in this casino, we can only deposit coins other than Bitcoin by exchanging these altcoins for BTC using ChangeNow, and the BTC will be deposited directly into our CoinRoyale account. Therefore, we can only use Bitcoin for playing and placing bets.

Nothing in general as of now, my only plan is to test the platform. I generally bet on cricket and I found that they allow bets on cricket matches that was the reason for me registering on the platform. Yes, I am aware that they only allow Bitcoin deposit. That is okay for me as I do bet using Bitcoin and I am not going to use changenow to convert my Satoshis to altcoin.
1032  Economy / Gambling / Re: Casinos not asking for KYC to register and play, but do require it to withdraw on: September 20, 2023, 07:41:10 AM
Did you read their terms and conditions, ask the support, or even do any research before getting involved? A casino or any platform wouldn't put everything up for you to read before you register but it's your responsibility to do that since you are the one who is going to be using his money to use the services and they will just be providing the services while having their rules written in their terms and conditions which are to be read by the customers themselves.

The problem always narrows down to one thing in such cases, not reading the T&C. Then they come up here, open a topic to make everyone aware how pathetic the named casino is and how they got scammed. Almost every casino that has a licence will enforce KYC to its user. After testing the casino and before making a big deposit it is advised to complete KYC. If you don't then you cannot withdraw. Contacting the support does help but that will take time.
1033  Economy / Gambling / Re: 👑 CoinRoyale.com - Original Bitcoin Casino | Trusted Since 2013 ✔️ on: September 20, 2023, 06:14:30 AM
Have you had a chance to try out any of the games on CoinRoyale? If so, how was your experience?

Yes, I was planning to use the casino to place my bet for the cricket Asia Cup finals. The match was not listed at that time, which surprised me as they had upcoming bilateral series listed. Later on, I realized that I was late to place a bet. I am now planning to use them for a few matches in the upcoming cricket World Cup.

Dogecoin is one of most popularly accepted cryptocurrencies on exchanges and gambling sites. It can be popular just after Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin and this is one of magic special use case for Dogecoin. It helps Dogecoin to have very powerful survival ability in this volatile market.

I prefer using TRX, USDT, and Bitcoin for betting purposes. Dogecoin gained popularity because of Musk and before his tweet, it was considered a meme coin with no purpose. Earlier a handful of casinos accepted Dogecoin whereas now most of them accept it. Still, the most preferred cryptocurrencies by users are the three that I mentioned.
1034  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket Asia Cup 2023! Which team will WIN? on: September 20, 2023, 05:53:13 AM

@pakhittheboss I felt that Srilankan player’s let themselves down by taking on too much pressure and I’m shocked that Wasim said this considering he’s yet well received in the Indian cricket fraternity.

Furthermore Pakistan is definitely in a mess heading into the World Cup as there’s rumour of them changing their vice captain and they have already lost a key bowler hence I feel that they won’t do well in the upcoming World Cup. Lastly I hope that Wasim again doesn’t blame Pakistan poor performance due to the above mentioned reasons on some hidden arrangement between PCB and BCCI.

Actually, everything went from bad to worse for Srilanka in the final, they never expected the pitch would become unplayable for their batter. You should have looked at Chris Silverwood's face when he was asked what happened to Srilanakan's batting. He did not have any answer and looked clueless. In my opinion, they are now one of the worst teams to be part of the World Cup. The two teams that are looking good are India and England.

The constant nagging by Pakistani ex-cricketers does not matter to me anymore. You should have seen the match analysis by Shoaib Akhtar before the final match and after the final match. You will understand why the global cricket fraternity does not take them seriously anymore. If Wasim Akhram had said those words then BCCI would have taken action against him and we would come to know about it when we do not hear his commentary in the upcoming tournament.

Hi CoinRoyale,

I'm just dropping by, and I'd like to test your online casino. I recently created my account using my email, but the account verification email ended up in my spam folder. It seems there might be an issue with your email deliverability, which is important to ensure that your sent and received emails are associated with your website. Nevertheless, I successfully verified my email.

It's great to see that you accept DOGE. I've been holding onto some DOGE for a while now, and I recently rediscovered it while organizing my files. I'm planning to start by playing the Dice game.


The same issue came up when I registered. I waited for the email verification link, later on I found out it was in my spam foler. I don't know like you and me others have faced the same issue. I had to report that email as not spam in order to receive future email from them. I don't think it is an issue on their side as the spam filters on an email service provider sometimes consider casino emails as spam. Therefore it is always recommended to check spam folders when an email verification mail is sent after registering on any online casino.
1036  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket Asia Cup 2023! Which team will WIN? on: September 19, 2023, 08:29:19 AM

Sirlanka team give very poor performance in Asia Cup Final especially in batting All Out in just 50 runs. Wasim akram said on Star Sports, The way SL turned up today it seems like some sort of arrangement was already made behind the scenes, to see a team Sirlanka that has reached the finals play in this manner raises quite a few questions but maybe we should keep quiet and not upset the ICC and BCCI.

What a bold statement by the waseem akram. But this is cricket doesn’t matter what happen. India played bery good cricket. Congratulations India its great achivements to beat Sirlinka by 10 wickets in Final of Asia cup and he is strong candidate to win this world cup beacuse they have home advantage. Muhammad Siraj is only indian bowlers to pick four wickets in an over and fattest 16 ball 5 wickets haul what a performance by Top class bowler.

That performance cannot be called poor. The best word to describe Srilanka's performance in the final is pathetic. They created that pitch on which MD Shiraz took 6 wickets, they did not understand the home conditions and were batting like amateurs. Their under-19 team would have played better than the national team.

Wasim Akram would not have given the same statement if India had lost. Pakistan is unable to digest how they were thrashed by Srilanka first and then how India thrashed Srilanka in the final. Such statements have been constantly bombarded by Pakistani excricketers and it does not matter to anyone in India or the Indian players. Already there has been a catfight between Pakistani players in the dressing room as per Pakistani media. If a team cannot work like a team and has to fight within themselves, do you expect them to win matches?

1037  Local / India / ZebPay Teams Up with Brave to Offer Rewards Program to Users in India on: September 19, 2023, 07:51:20 AM
This is good news for everyone who uses the Brave browser in India and is part of the Brave reward program. I was making a decent earning from Brave Reward a few years back. Earlier rewards were claimed using either of the two wallets, that is the Gemini wallet and the Uphold wallet.

I was using Uphold Wallet, which I found difficult to operate because of the complex UI. Later on both these wallets stopped providing service to the Indian community. There have been demands by the Indian community to bring back the reward program to India.



Earlier this year the Brave team did give a hint that they were in discussion with a new partner for India. Frankly, I was not expecting it to be zebpay exchange Wink. I would say something is better than nothing in this case. You can read the detailed announcement by the Brave team here.
1038  Local / India / Re: Indian crypto exchanges under regulations of RBI on: September 19, 2023, 07:33:23 AM
Even though it is bad, but RBI has no choice other than regulating the crypto market if that is what government want and most likely that is the possibility if I am not wrong. But yeah, crypto regulations should not fall under RBI or else they will not allow it to grow and will restrict people in any possible way. Thanks for the opinion though, which acts as an eye-opener for me regarding this kind of approach.

In a way, they are restricting the growth of the crypto market in India by giving RBI the authority to regulate it. I am surprised none of the big community members and the owners of crypto exchanges are questioning this decision. RBI was the one that had stopped the government from implementing regulation and wanted a complete ban. The government should come up with a different regulatory authority for crypto. They have a SEBI to regulate the share market, RBI does not have any jurisdiction in the Indian share market. This shows the government does not consider cryptocurrency as a commodity, it still considers it as a digital currency which is meant for gambling. Believe me, we won't see a deduction from the existing tax slab if this shit continues. I am expecting very harsh regulation from the government of India.

I was going through the sports book to check the odds for today's Asia Cup finals. I was surprised that the tournament has not been listed and that only ongoing bilateral series and upcoming bilateral series odds were listed. I hope the team knows that the ODI World Cup 2023 will start on the 5th of October. I am hoping the CoinRoyale team adds this mega tournament to its sportsbook.
1040  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Cricket Discussion] Top tier players in mediocre teams on: September 17, 2023, 06:46:39 AM
I do not think this topic would be an issue as we will be discussing individual player's performance in this thread. Already there are three mega threads on cricket that are dedicated to the different formats of cricket. I think it would have been good if this thread would have been self-moderated in order to stop spam.

Coming back to the discussion. I feel bad for Shakib Al Hassan, he is still the number one all-rounder in all formats of cricket, yet his team has never been able to perform well in big tournaments. Either they are struggling with bowling or they are struggling with batting. A team cannot be dependent on the performance of a single player. in his case most of the time if he performs well then his team wins the match.
