RCB is off to a very weak start, against the KKR. After 2 overs, they are struggling at 7/0 with Parthiv Patel and Virat Kohli at crease. I don't know for how long the RCB management is going to tolerate Parthiv. He has been a gigantic failure so far this season. They have a very promising U-19 national player (Devdutt Padikkal). IMO, he deserves a chance this season.
They lost Patel at 18 runs. Kohli is doing well. He needs to play a good knock to have a decent score. After five over the run is 30 which looks slow rate. But if they don't lose wicket then they can score fast later of the innings.

RCB needs to score at least 180 runs to give a fight with KKR. KKR have good batting line up.

CSK have strong chances of winning the cup again(Would be a new record if they did), but I strongly feel that SRH or KKR could lift the cup this year. Just a hunch. The upcoming games will basically decide which teams will qualify which is why the race is heating up.
If Warner leaves the team for world cup then SRH will become weaker so their chances will be less unless they find a good replacement. Problem with SRH is that they are also struggling with their middle order.

If Jonny Bairstow and Warner performs then we see good score. When Jonny Bairstow only performs then we see good run rate. Once both these opener flops they struggle to score runs. The middle order is very vulnerable.

KKR has good chance by the way. I think their betting line-up is very strong.

Hmm. You might be right, but MI still have a great chance of lifting the cup. The loss of Alzarri is a big blow to them, but they still have a great lineup though. Also, I bet on RCB today. Taking my chances on the underdogs again.
Well I think CSK will be the champion. Good luck with your bet if you are going for RCB. I hope you win it. I already picked KKR in the prediction pool by the way. I really think they will win.

DC continues to disappoint. Their batting order collapses like dominoes once the set batsmen get out which is absolutely horrible and this is the reason why I strongly feel that they won't lift the cup this year even though their bowling has improved a lot.
No way that DC or MI or RCB or RR gonna lift the cup. There are may be chances for KKR, SRH, KXIP but I think CSK will take the cup again. CSK still have issues in their middle order but I am sure they will fix it very soon.

Kolkata Knight Riders vs Royal Challengers Bangalore today. My pick is Kolkata Knight Riders without any doubt. RCB is not gonna win this match since their confidence is in the bottom on the other hand a win for KKR will keep then in the race so KKR is going to take this match very seriously.

If Russell starts hitting the ball then imagine the faces of RCB bowlers and also Kohli :-P

WOW! Those are some awesome ranks. I didn't know that Bumrah was the number one bowler in the world LOL. Honestly, it feels like there are no longer some very good fast bowlers available in the world anymore, the "great" bowlers like Brett Lee and Shoaib Akhtar.

If India wins the world cup, I'm sure that the major role will be played by Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal.
Oh man!
Some golden bowling legends in their time:
Brett Lee, Shoaib Akhtar
Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis
Courtney Walsh, Curtly Ambrose

When you have their names, you see speed (Wasim had variation. He could hit a coin on the pitch in a raw). Now a days fast bolers are meh, we don't mind to hit us a boundary but back then, hitting a boundary used to make the bowler angry.

No one in their right mind will say that the Indian batting line-up is weak. Virat Kohli alone is capable of defeating all the opposition teams. Their only concern should be about the pace-bowling options. One thing that I noticed during the 1999 World Cup is that the pacers need some time to get adjusted to the English conditions. Back then, the Indian bowlers struggled initially (esp. Javagal Srinath and Venkatesh Prasad), but as the tournament progressed, they started performing consistently.
India's batting team is always strong, it was and it is without any doubt however there were always concerns with their blowing unit. But, in the last few years they improved in this department and doing very well.

I think it will be injustice to the Indian current bowling unit with the bowling unit they used to have in 1999. Javagal Srinath and Venkatesh Prasad were not as good as the bowlers they have now.

Jasprit Bhumrah (Rank: 1 Point: 774)
Kuldeep Yadav (Rank: 7 Point: 689)
Yuzvendra Chahal (Rank: 8 Point: 680)
Bhuvneshwar Kumar (Rank: 15 Point: 619)
Mohammed Shami (Rank: 34 Point: 549)

Ladies and gentlemen now there is another chance for Pant to prove his worth. Wishing him best of luck....
Yap, it was but Bumrah the future legend did not give him time to settle



Quote
Bumrah to Pant, OUT, THAT COULD BE THE GAME! The move to bring back Bumrah pays off, as he gets a length ball to nip back just a bit off the seam. Pant looks for the heave-ho down the ground, but misses the line of it. It comes in a touch and knocks his off stump out of the ground. Bumrah lets out an exultant roar. Mumbai Indians are flying at the moment, through their balanced bowling attack

I was expecting drama in the end over but falling wickets like this in the middle may not have the drama. :-)

Note: Now if the drama happens then it will happen in favour of DC :-D
74 from 26 balls. Expecting anything from DC is too much luxury.
7910  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Now FREE to JOIN] IPL 2019 Prediction Pool and discussion on: April 18, 2019, 04:50:19 PM
Bet on DC and am expecting them to comfortably win this one thanks to their batting lineup. Mumbai needs to improve their bowling if they want to qualify since the race is heating up currently and each match is basically a decider from now on.
DC's are taking runs comfortably, their batting line-up is good as well. I am too expecting them to win if there are no drama at the end. I hope you win your bet.

MI has some good bowlers in fact top class in the world.

Bumrah, Malinga who are very good death over bowlers. So, I would not be surprised if we see any drama in the end overs. However, finger crossd tor DC. I hope the batsmen do not waste the middle overs. We have seen in few matches that because of slow run rate in the middle overs, teams were losing even though they had a good start.

Go to the local pawn shop. Give it to them and get some money from them. Once you have money then get the camera returned. I do not see any sense to ask money from a place where you do not know anyone.

You can try your relatives too. That's why we have friends and family, isn't it?
7912  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Now FREE to JOIN] IPL 2019 Prediction Pool and discussion on: April 18, 2019, 04:03:28 PM
Dude pitch is damn slow here.... Zero bounce!!!
You are right however seeing 140+ runs on the board and have 1.2 balls remaining looks not bad for MI. It will be interesting to see how DC response.

EDIT: 5th ball is a six, 6th ball is a four and the run is 150. One over left. 165+ (?) may be.

EDIT2: Well it's 168 runs. When I saw Rabada I thought it's not going to happen but MI did it. 169 runs in this pitch is very much hight score. We will see the response from DC.

You can select to spend only confirmed coins. Tools - Preferences - Transactions.
Thank you. I never encountered this feature. It looks useful.



Sorry... re-reading that, I used the wrong word... it shouldn't have said created, it should have said "confirmed". I think it is an "impossible loop" type situation.

That's okay since I already got that you wanted to mean.

Quote
It's a weird "double spend"-type scenario... and possibly just related to the order in which the server is parsing your transaction for validity.

The scenario that I can think of, would be something like this:
1. You create a transaction, that spends UTXO-X, that creates UTXO-A... but this is not confirmed.
2. You then create a 2nd transaction, that tries to spend UTXO-A, while also spending UTXO-X.
3. The server, while parsing the transaction, notes that you're spending UTXO-A and checks to see how this was created, then notes that you're spending UTXO-X... if that happened, then UTXO-A couldn't exist.

BOOM! you get the "bad-txns-spends-conflicting-tx" error... I'm not 100% sure if this is actually correct, but is one scenario I can think of that would trigger this specific error.
Here is the weirdest I experienced. From last two days I can spend from the same wallet even when it have unconfirmed tx (That I sent to some other address) exists.

Same wallet but behaving different for the same scenario.

from single keys derived from an HD wallet??!?
Yes, it's single pk derived from HD wallet. I do it so that it does not add coin from another address which is associated with this same HD wallet.

Quote
If you're using Electrum, and want to pick and choose exactly which address you want to send from or, more correctly, which specific UTXO(s) you want to spend, you should be using the "Coin Control" features within Electrum. If you use the menu option: "View -> Show Coins", and then select the "Coins" tab, Electrum shows each individual UTXO that your wallet currently controls. You can select as many or as few UTXOs as you want (using CTRL or SHIFT + left click etc)... then right click on the selected coin(s) and select "Spend". This will create a transaction that spends ONLY the selected UTXOs.
Thank you. This is what I was missing and all those days derived single keys.

Quote
Why exactly are you creating single address wallets to spend from an HD wallet?
Now you already know the answer.

Thank you and djhomeschool very much for your help and to teach me some new features.

how long it will take until that bitcoin lending on your wallet?
i think high fee make it faster than your costum fee. actually i usually using recomended fee
What usually determine the time a transaction will be totally executed is  but as the topic says, some people are scared that their transaction might be stuck which lead them to paying ridiculous fee


The status of the mempool with the level of the transaction fees used are what determine a transaction are totally executed but here's different between high fee and ridiculous fee and people who dont or check the status of the mempool before setting a high fee will definitely pay crazy fee as the OP said.
Which is why electrum wallet is the best in sending cheap transaction cause all you have to do is download>Install>to Tools>preference>Fees under the fees estimation set it to mempool which will allow the wallet to send all your transaction base on the mempool status.
Before installing, you need to make sure that you have verified the signature. This will ensure that you are going to install the authentic Electrum wallet. Some people skip this stage and risk themselves to be a victim of phishing Electrum software. I am seeing many of them these day.

Here is a recent one: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5133262.msg50658286#msg50658286

So, please verify the the downloaded software even if you download it from the official website.

What's the reason? You are losing morr than you guess?
~snip~
Not confident about which team will win and also yes I lost too much in the last two weeks so I am in very tight budget LOL It will be hard for me to lose more while not much confident about my pick.

I am also favouring Pant. In the last match he was playing a monster innings meaning he is well ahead then MI's bowlers. He may hit big today as well. Only around 15 minutes to go.

Mumbai Indians won the toss and elected to bat. It will be an interesting chase for  DC if MI score a good total.

Another one of my favorites, Tsitsipas was beaten by Medvedev, 6-2, 1-6, 6-4.

Djovokic had a easy day, disposing Fritz, 6-3, 6-0. Thiem is fighting hard in the first set, down 0-5 against Lajovic. While Nadal up 6-0 in the first set against Dimitrov. Fognini vs Zverev in the next 40 minutes.
How are you doing bud?

I am missing my Tennis days but now a days I am busy watching this IPL cricket (and also losing bets LOL). Few more days to go then I will be back with my Tennis addict :-P

Good to see you guys are keeping it up.

Well, sad thing... i hope karma strikes back for the hacker.....

Which hardware is recommned?
I am using Leger Nano S from over 2 years if I am not wrong. Never had any problem however these days I do not use it anymore. I feel more comfortable and safe with a multiSig wallet like I mentioned on my last post.

I see jackg also gave the same suggestion.

You can try it in two different device. Never save the details of both in the save device. This tutorial will help : https://bitcoinelectrum.com/creating-a-multisig-wallet/

They explained 2/3 however you will be find with 2/2.

Hope it helps.

When you are handling crypto it's always recommended that you deal with extra care. It's really frustrating to see people are losing their coins because they did something wrong and their coins are long gone.

When you are dealing with a desktop wallet like Electrum, there are few things you need to ensure:

1. Download from the official site. : https://electrum.org/#download
2. Before installing please please please make sure that you have verified the signature to ensure the authenticity even if you download it from the official site. Tutorial: https://bitcoinelectrum.com/how-to-verify-your-electrum-download/
3. Now you are good to install and use.

To ensure extra security this is what I do,
Instead of keeping my coins in a simple standard wallet, I create a 2/2 multi sign wallet and each key I keep in two separate computer. When I send a transaction then I access both computer to sign the transaction. I understand it's extra hassle but it ensure my coins not to be steal by accident.

By the way, you might miss to read this as well: Electrum vulnerability allows arbitrary messages, phishing

Sorry for you loss bud. I hope you have not lost much.

Anyone want to predict the winner for today's match? It's a tough call actually. The Capitals are not doing that good, but they have an advantage against the MI. It will be interesting to watch Rishabh Pant, after the snubbing he received from the selectors. I would go with DC for today's match.
I will go with Delhi Capital. Pant has not performed well in last few matches however may be, he will have another good knock (78 out of 27 balls) like the previous match against Mumbai. Nothing is not even close to reality obviously.

It's interesting to see how IPL matches are turning 180 degree almost in every matches. You think team A is doing very well and is going to win the match easily but after the last ball to bowl, you find the winner is team B who were losing the match by every possible calculation.

I will not bet today by the way. I promised to myself LOL
