2641  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The Rise of Mobile Gambling Is Leaving People Ruined and Unable to Quit on: September 09, 2022, 09:16:34 PM
I beg to differ. The rise of mobile gambling isn't leaving people ruined and unable to quit, it is a lack of discipline. A lack of self-control that's leaving people ruined. Did you realize that there are just as many mobile apps to prevent or ban access to gambling websites as there are mobile apps themselves? Think about it. And even more to prevent addiction (although I doubt they are successful).
Those huge number of mobile apps which helps prevent gambling only shows that gambling is now rampant these days and that is also due to lack of self discipline by the people. Me either I doubt they are successful because there will always be a way to bypass them for a seriously addicted gambler. At one point they can decide to stop but later on they will have the urge to gamble again.

It is truly hard to quit once you are heavily attached already on one thing but a strong will power can help you fix that. You just need to think about other things and think also about the worst thing which it will cause to you in the long run if you won't stop it.

Which direction are you taking it? No gain, no greed in gambling? You are taking it far and not correct as you contradict yourself as well. Try to know the difference between grace and luck, we don't have grace in gambling, we have luck, and grace does not leave you easily, luck does, it can appear and disappear at any time. That is why we possess grace, but luck is temporary. Aside from that, you might be greedy as a gambler, and being greedy does not mean the gambler does not have initial plans and targets, it is when the gambler does not care about them by being emotional while gambling.
I am Agree with you mate, luck is temporary and not forever as a gambler we all know that in the world of gambling all games are based on your lucky days then you will win. But we must remember that if we don't have our luck in our side for sure we will loss and greediness shall be follow and if once a gambler will addicted to much then there's a time that they can not control their self and always thinking that I'll bet for this in order to get my losses back.
We have a luck as long as we are still alive. It can come out sometimes like in gambling and we can win something but luck doesn't last long so we must learn how to quit before it ends. When we step in then gambling arena we can do some warm up bets first only to tell if we have a luck that day or not but if there's none then we can choose to not play or just play only a small amount for fun.

Greediness can come not only when a gambler is losing but also when they are winning. This isn't a good trait to adopt so we should prevent this from happening because if not then it can lead to a more severe condition like being addicted.

World Cup hosting rights were granted to Qatar in a hurry and without much introspection from the part of FIFA. Even back then, there were allegations that the Qatari officials were openly bribing poor members to vote in their favor. And ever since they won the bidding, there have been serious allegations of mistreatment of migrant workers and LGBT individuals within Qatar. FIFA has taken no action to this date, to ensure that adequate compensation is provided to the close to 6,000 migrant workers who died during the construction of world cup stadiums.
The same doubts existed in the case of awarding the World Cup to Russia 2018 and of course FIFA covered everything up and nothing happened.
FIFA is actually a commercial company and the only thing they are interested in is the expected earnings from the World Cup, and Russia and Qatar obviously offered more money than other competitors, and that was the only thing that mattered in the decision-making process.
Sports motives, honesty, fight against corruption? Don't be ridiculous, FIFA is one of the most corrupt organizations in the world, just look at who the members of the FIFA executive committee are and everything will be clear to you  Grin Grin
Football is no longer just a sport, but exclusively a business.
There is no doubt FIFA is commercial company, and they are doing this all very good because with this they are having enough funds and good marketing which is helping them for having enough funds and other facilities which are giving them good access to all other things which are fruitful for this game soccer, and they are also good in their system and rules which are helping to stay completely neutral in many cases and if any federation is doing anything wrong they are capable of ban them even punish for better results for others and going strong into their system which is very important for this game's development.

Just no FIFA is the most corrupt organization we have too many but right now they are world's most popular, so peoples have more updates about this and I agree with their this all way of business because this is good for game and future of this game.

Another great comeback from Swiatek. It seems that he is becoming the Djokovic of women's tennis. Like deliberately losing a set by a huge margin and then coming back strong to snatch a win.

So it will be Jabeur vs Swiatek in the women's final. I will be putting my money again on the over for this. I'm expecting that it will be a 3 setter match.
And maybe Swiatek is better suited in this kind of game, but it's still very dangerous to really make a huge comeback specially if she faces a tough opponent that has the same mentality as her. And with that, I think that is the biggest factor in this match. She still has the will to win even if she is down 1 set.

So Swiatek might have a clear advantage of Jabeur plus the experience. So she will be the favorite to win the Ladies US Open.
Swiatek done good job after losing first set and now have spot into last two against O Jabeur which is also doing amazing stuff for last few months even she is not good enough but still it's not going to be easy for Swiatek because in last four matches both have 2 - 2 and O Jabeur current form is also excellent she lost only one set in this event and having quality game against few quality players which is giving her good experience for big events.

Nick Kyrgios has been given the biggest fine of the US Open so far for his behavior in his quarter-final defeat by Karen Khachanov.

The Australian was fined $14,000 (£12,000) after throwing a drink bottle to the ground and then smashing two racquets at the end of the match.

The total of his fines in New York for offenses including spitting and swearing was $32,500 (£28,200).

I really liked the experience in this casino, especially there is a type of game in particular that I like a lot and it's called "Rise of Ra" and also in "joker poker" I like it, so I don't know if they have thought about expand that idea for poker? It is not the first casino where I have proposed that they can do something like this, but since poker is one of the most popular games and that people are looking for more, and currently there is not so much poker fever because the sites are very Few organize this type of event, I think that apart from Betnomi that if it organizes tournaments, if there were another casino that focused on daily tournaments, this could bring more traffic and more people, haven't you considered it?
From its name "rise of ra", my guess is that it was a slot game right? But the other one, I am not sure if it's also a type of slot game or it's a poker game but with a twist due to its name because the original poker game is simply called as a poker. This is a casino site so they don't only focus on poker games but who knows?

Maybe they will consider your suggestion since like you said, many people do also love to play poker as it's more on a skill game and the chance to make a profit on it is high if you will take time to grow your skills. Other than betnomi, I think swc poker have also done a poker tournament here before tho I haven't heard them nowadays.

^^That "sudden change" is the thing that looks the most realistic to me. I get that not many people feels the same way but I feel like if we could end up seeing it change like that, then we could go up way too high without any trouble. People do not see how easy it could be to reach 24k+ prices again, yes it's not happening right now, but if we were to try to go up, it would be super simple and that's the point.

This is why I am not scared as a bitcoin holder, I trust that we are going to have that easily and it is going to end up with a success for sure. I know that it is going to be taking a while, but it is going to get back there for sure without a doubt.

Fulham have been surprisingly good this season. At the beginning of the season I predicted Nottingham Forest to be in the place of Fulham especially after signing 21 new players this summer but I was disappointed, Nottingham Forest are losing games every week,the only game I was so certain of a win and all three points after a 2 nil win over Bournemouth in the first half they lost the game in the second half after conceding 3 goals to Bournemouth. Chelsea against Fulham will be a very tough one, with the current situation at Chelsea I don't see them winning this game.
Fulham is surely right now surprise package for this season as no one was expecting results like this from them which they are already achieved with three games at home and having seven points and three games away having one point is good result for them with eight points in six games Nottingham is losing games at home and away they are also having only one point which mean they need to do some more work even they were at top with 21 transfers which is record for any team in Premier League if they are not going to have positive change then surely it's going to be their only season in this Premier League with most chances they are going to at bottom in next week Leicester City is also trying to change their fortune against Aston Villa in the next game at home.

Now with the change of coach most chances Chelsea is going to be better team in this match against Fulham but most chances Fulham can steal point from this match which is going to be good for them as at the end every point is going to count.
2648  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: "The Lower-Risk Gambling Guidelines" Is this a joke? on: September 08, 2022, 08:55:13 PM
Every gambler has their own gambling habit so it would feel like someone is dictating you how to gamble properly. As long as he does it in moderation and his other financial responsibilities are not being compromised then there is no reason to limit your budget which will just reduce their satisfaction if they follow those guidelines..
I have to agree to that.

About the last part that you're not compromising the other financial obligations that you have. Whether you gamble daily with two or more games, as long as you're not touching and neglecting your financial duties then that's okay.

Somethings might work for you and could be better if you just follow what you think is the right thing to do. From being a newbie, take any advise that could seem to be focused on giving a thought of being careful as a gambler and is trying to help you to be in a harmless situation.
When we gamble, we don't spend money alone but we are also spending our time with it. Both of these should not be compromised only because of gambling. You can say that you already set aside the money for the bills, groceries and etc but if you haven't bonded with your wife or family then I think you should refrain from gambling first because they are more important than it.

We think gambling is more fun but once you are done with it, the regret can come later on when you see that your wife and kids are feeling sad. If you are single then your rules are the ones that must be followed but if not then you should listen to your family.

When someone gives you their account email and password, you will have full access to their account and can transfer funds to that account using other methods.  So why would anyone give you access to their account with their funds?

Well I assume you are an honest person.  And I also accept your condition that you will gamble using my funds and account and i should pay you 50% of my total profit. But if you lose my funds while gambling then who will take the responsibility of that money? Will you take responsibility for 50% of that lost money?  As you are ready to take 50% dividend ?
He didn't say that you will need a balance once you handed your account to him but if it works the way you describe it, of course it was your own responsibility in case he loses your money because you accept his conditions anyway but I think the commission will now change.

It won't be 50 over 50 anymore but his share is going to be lower than yours. I think in order to perform this, we will be needing him to record his gameplay live so that we will see all of his actions and we are sure that he won't lie to us that he didn't win so that he can get all the money. He can also create his own account but I wonder why need to use someone else account?
2650  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Proof of Work is the right consensus mechanism for exchanging value trustlessly on: September 08, 2022, 06:26:43 PM
I disagree. It is not the system or mechanism that is the best or worst in any situation, it is the blockchain and its code. I could write a proof of work that is horrible and I could write a proof of stake that is better, or I could write a great proof of work and a horrible proof of stake. Both are possible and people who do not understand it are people who have no idea how things work.

I personally believe that ETH becoming proof of stake is not easy, it is taking a lot of work and effort to turn it into POS but the reality is that we are talking about something that is a bit more difficult to handle so it is going to be a bit longer to adjust to this new life.

Is domain expiration a problem?

It is no longer, I just extended it to ten years.
Ten years for domain is more than enough, but you need to start with some marketing campaign for your website.
I just checked players and most of them used Ravencoin, so that means there is no lotto drawing for Bitcoin and other coins, if that is the only way for getting rewards.
People need to have some trust that you won't just shutdown website and run away when enough coins are deposited.
Indeed it's a lot but I think the fees to extend a domain isn't that much. Many are using ravencoin because it is lighter than in bitcoins and other top coins. You know the fees are cheap, its fast, and most of all the minimum for this coin is much lower so they can start the game immediately and this is a new site so many people are testing it first with smaller amounts but once they gain confidence that is going to be the time that they will use larger coins to be able to win bigger prizes.

Maybe using an escrow is possible to implement here? Since some games can take a long time to start but that escrow must also be trusted and are a member of this forum.

There is no chance that the ICC is going to work on your policy for every team in cricket. As we saw previously in this Asia Cup, when Pakistan lost against India, ICC posted a lot of posts on their Facebook timeline supporting India following the loss. I have not seen the ICC do the same thing for Pakistan in my opinion. That certainly shows the severity of discrimination that exists within the ICC. I do not think that the way the ICC does things will lead to any equality between the teams in cricket based on how they conduct themselves. Below is a link to the official Facebook page of the International Cricket Council. You can check if you wish to do so

https://www.facebook.com/icc
There are many factors for this Indian fan base in the biggest in ICC countries with this they are the biggest in earning for ICC as well just because of this mostly they celebrate Indian wins and in special case if this happens against Pakistan then they have more celebrations because then sentiments are more increased, and they have better viewership's and likes on their social media pages which is good for them and their parents which are Pig-4 right now.

On other side Pakistan has never been ideal country for any sports just because of political and uncertainty and natural disasters are also having big impact on them for years as they completely fail to settle things which are important for development and having better business sentiments for common peoples which are very important for having better results and income from any country.

With your explanation, I believe you understand this casino of a thing very well. I have read through this topic and know that the OP would have gained a lot of knowledge through it based on what I have read from posters.

The entertainment aspect attracted me so much, there are many reasons and ways we play casinos, but what we do is one, which is gambling. I was not a player until I joined BTT because it is obvious that it is everywhere in the gambling and discussion section, and I need the experience.

My playing is with little amounts and I do that mainly to replace watching movies and all that. A kind of another hobby if I must say, yet I must try not to get addicted.
Not exactly by his explanation but by his name because his name is poker player Cheesy but seriously like he said, you don't need an experience or great knowledge to know what a casino is but only a common sense or a basic knowledge is already enough. That is right that we should only play gambling for entertainment purposes. It can be an alternative to other things or in your case movies but why you are avoiding watching a movie lately?

I think movies are also fun. It is very possible to include gambling along with other activities that we love. We can be able to do them all as long as we know how to set a time for each of them.

Today we have two matches with first match is going to play between Berrettini vs Ruud both players are on same level and have enough quality, but history is clearly favoring Ruud he has done good performance against Berrettini but in this Tournament as things are coming I am feeling it's going to be no easy for any player take this match easily odds are also on level for these both players, but I am having Ruud as better and can win this match.

In second match of this day is going to play between Kyrgios vs Khachanov after sending back home to Medvedev another Russian in front of Kyrgios most chances he will win this match without any problem and enter into semifinal without any problem as Nadal is also out of this event now most chances we are going to have new champion so here I have two players first in Alcaraz or Kyrgios know who will take this honor for this final result we have to wait for last day of this event.
2655  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to Know the right crypto project to invest in on: September 06, 2022, 09:49:50 AM
Considering rate at which hundreds of cryptocurrencies are flooding the blockhain space it seems digital currency is taking over the fiat. But the question now is how does one get to know the right crypto project to invest in?
How much money do you have?
If you don't have a too big amount of money, you simply choose the top coins for your investment.
You don't need to do a too deep analysis, just pick the top coins which have good fundamentals. Besides BTC, you can invest in ETH, BNB, DOT, ADA, MATIC, or SOL. These coins are the safest coins to invest in, but it doesn't guarantee huge profits. You need to know when the best time to buy and when the time to sell them. Please, learn the market trends in crypto.
I think it is the opposite. If your money is small then its fine if you can gamble them in the risky coins because you will be alright even if you lose them but if ever you got lucky then congrats because that small amount you put can bear you a couple of hundreds or even thousands of bucks in a short period of time.

I know this sounds promising but the only downside is that it cant occur at all times so it is still wise to save up that small amount and then put it in the top coins for a better success rate. Indeed that knowing the right coins isn't alone but we also need to know if when is the best time to buy and sell. These times are still great for buying because we are still in a bear while the best time for selling is when the bull run starts or when the prices of the coin climbs another new ATH.

Everton has never won. and facing Arsenal will certainly be a tough match for Everton.
unless Arsenal is still in a slump from the MU defeat, it could make Everton's chances better.
but Arsenal's game against Manchester United was not bad. they are quite impressive. Arsenal certainly has a great chance to destroy Everton with a lot of goals.
After two early defeats now Everton are going with four draws which is not bad, but now they are going to face League Leaders Arsenal at Emirates Stadium where in last encounter between these two teams results were not good enough for visitors as they lost match by score of 5 - 1 with these things are also not good as they lost against Manchester United and now try to have some aggressive game which give them good result and better recovery from this defeat.

No doubt they play very good against Manchester United even they lost badly, but their game was on their target, and they still have good and positive mindset which is going to help them for next win against struggling Everton Arteta is doing good job and most chances he will try to learn from mistakes which happen at Old Trafford because they have ability to fight back quickly.

So you mean the weak players are more needed in a poker sites than the professional players that can consistently have bigger winners than the weak players that will be have consistent loses always.
That can be true which means that what a player loses is what another ayer wins?
Well gambling is risky and we need to be prepared for what happens to us if we lose in a bet or finally wins.
No one will know who is a professional player or a player who is not because when they are at a casino site, people play and can't see how their opponents are except when they play and win the game. The difference is that if you have good skills, you can win the poker game, while other players will lose and suffer a hefty loss. So before you play, it's better first to determine the amount of money you want to use so you won't suffer many losses because poker games can also make you forget when it's time to stop.
I think it's possible if a poker site will post the statistics of each player publicly. You will see if how many wins a player had versus to his losses but I think on most sites there is also a hide feature or to make themselves anonymous but other than this, a pro player can make a smurf account only to crush the newbie and weak players.

A good skill does matter in poker games but that will be limited if done online because you can't see the face of your opponent if they are bluffing or not but that's okay since they will also feel the same. This is what makes online poker exciting because you will also need some luck in order for you to win.

Nevertheless currently as far my knowledge, freebitco.in only provides faucet for the sports events.
You are wrong. Just go to freebitco.in and check. The faucet is on the main page.

It doesn't require KYC, it doesn't give problems to withdraw, but there is a minimum withdrawal requirement of 30,000 sats if I remember correctly.
They don't require a kyc maybe because they aren't really a gambling site but they are just a faucet and the other features that we see on their site such as betting are only just an addition.

It will only give you a problem about withdrawals once they think your account is suspicious like if you have done some abuse but if you are sure that you are playing fairly and not doing illegal things then you don't need to worry. They are super legit since they are one of the oldest faucet/betting sites around and they do also have an active announcement thread here in the forum which we can easily reach out in case we don't get a response on the other.

Since macaw.casino developers have no plans to add games from new providers in the future, and they are going to add a game developed from scratch on their own in Q4, I think they have no plans to obtain a gambling license, in any case, such intentions are not heard from them.
Is license now a requirement before you can apply for a gaming provider? This site promises a no kyc so having a license could revise that promise they made and many will be disappointed because I think many will choose to gamble in a no kyc casino site more than to a site that has a provider games but requires a kyc.

I like original games to be honest and they are limited in number so I am not confused if what I am going to play and it is possible to test all of them than those provider games which has a lot of games. They load slow and their minimum bets are high. That is the only thing I noticed so far but I think they have more flaws.

I went AFK for 30 minutes.

What happened to Roma 4-0 vs Udinese?

Roma until today was the more solid team and defense in Serie A for this year.
This is the most surprising match result in Italian Serie this season. I still don't believe this result. This is not even in my dream only.
Well, I don't know if Udinese really played so extraordinarily or Roma played extremely badly. Whatever their game, this is the worst game for Roma so far. They don't only lose 3 points and also in the table standing. But, they were also humiliated by a team like Udinese by getting slaughtered 4 - 0
How can?
Even this is the most shocking result of this season and Roma was surely going to be title contender and currently top of the league table, but they lost this match against a weaker side which defeated team like Fiorentina so no doubt this is a big upset, but we can expect results like this because teams are doing good job for some time and in this season we are having many unpredictable results from top rank teams in all leagues like Aston Villa hold Manchester City with the score of 0 - 0.

But, surely losing match by score like this 4 - 0 is the biggest trouble for Mourinho who is surely losing his strategy and have no enough things for handling things like this in last season he was hero at Roma, but this lost is surely going to have negative impact on his performance and career.
