I have question - how do they make that much money if their games are fair?

Their profit per month is 73.7666667M, le'ts imagine this is 20% of total comission...And it's shocking. Don't they suppose to have negative months, or years? Like operators have?

I mean, all of this videos of their rigged game shows, blackjacks...I'm about to think that all of them are true

Their games are fair in the sense that they officially have an advantage over players, and they are not hiding it. Their profit is only telling us about how many gamblers are using their products, I don't understand why do you think it implies they are cheating. Like other people said in this thread, they don't need to cheat because they are making big money legally. Why risk your license?

Acknowledging your point and also the rigged casino may not be able to gather so much revenue as compared to the honest and trusted casinos.

Also if a casino is rigged you will not find it in mainstream media telling about it that how much they have earned over the time. There is no doubt that the Casino and games in question in this OP thread is legit.

1602  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sports bets or in-house games, which is best for the weekend. on: October 30, 2023, 06:41:24 AM
Sport bets vs in-house games which is most enjoyable and has a higher tendency of bringing much winning compared to it possibility of losing?

Simple, it is depending on your own favorite. If you do like both, you can place some bets on sports before the match start and you can play in house game while you are waiting for the result of the sports. Which one bring more winning chance? If you have great knowledge about sports, no doubt that sports bet will give you better winning chance but if you do not have any knowledge about sports and you are betting on it with speculation only, it is the same as when you play in house game. Every gambler has their own passion, has their own favorite gambling game to play, so it is depending on yourself.

I do not understand why are you specially  asking about the weekend that we should play the in house games or do we do the sports betting ?

It really doesn't matter if it is a weekend or a normal day a person who is interested in sports betting would continue to do the sports betting through out the week while the person who loves the casino games will play the in house games always or almost of the times.

The only exception to this is that sometimes you may not find any of your favourite sports on the weekend and therefore you have nothing to bet on. In that case you may switch to in house gambling games because they are available 24/7 on the online gaming sites.
1603  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do your parents know about your gambling habit ? on: October 30, 2023, 06:02:59 AM
It really isn't necessary for us to tell people about our gambling habits or activities even with friends or family. I, too, live along with my parents and I have never told them my gambling activities online but I'm sure they're aware that I'm gambling as I casually visit local casino malls. Its not really about being discriminated by my family or friends but rather it's something that isn't necessary to talk about unless you've hit jackpots.

I think it's not the same situation when it comes to other people because like for example in our country, parents are more responsible for their children and always look for them whenever they are not around, and guess what? they always knew what they were up to and sometimes they found them in the gambling den along with their friends. that's why it depends because you cannot just hide it when you have that kind of parents who always look after you. I remember my friend got beaten badly by his dad after he was found gambling with cards along with the adults in the other village.
Having that kind of strict parent will ended up having a child who tends to hide everything to them, I know that they should be responsible but please set a boundary, do not let them  interfere in your decisions and privacy. Also, As long as you know what you're doing and you're aware in the consequences of the things that you do, then it's very okay to not let them know that you're into gambling. I mean, i didn't say that you should lie to your parents but set a boundary, not all the things in your life should have know by your parents.

Generally speaking the gamblers do not tell their parents that they are involved in gambling. The reason for this is that they fear that if they tell their parents they may force time to stop gambling or they may give them punishment or something like that. The sort of treatment the parents do with the children if they know they are involved in gambling will also depend upon the age of the children.

The parents do know that thier children involved in gambling or not,  in most cases parents will not tell their children that they know it from their words or their behaviours.
1604  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What according to you should be the age to retire from gambling ? on: October 30, 2023, 03:03:05 AM
Many believe that gambling is for young people online as they need thrill and and fun. But I think that even old people can enjoy gambling. There should be any age to retire from gambling at all. One can do this activity and leisure time and thus it does not affect retirement related activities also.

I think that there is no age to retire from gambling. You can gamble for as long as you mind is working and you have money. Once you become older, like 80+ your mind does not respond as it used to do previously and at old age, we do not earn any income, so this means that it becomes difficult to gamble at that age. However, some may have passive income, with which they may gamble for lifetime.

But if we do research thoroughly we will find that all gamblers in online gambling are loved by all groups from young people to adults and old people so the assumption that online gambling is only for young people is an incorrect idea.

With the popularity of online gambling, it is even easier for the old people to continue to gamble in the comfort of their homes. If those people need to go out to the physical casino, maybe they would think to quit it but since gambling is available in their home, on their mobile or computer, so its becomes easy for them to gamble and pass their free time.

I felt India will lose today since their batting was not up to the mark and they set target of 230, but Indian bowlers have destroyed England (55-5, atm), low chances they'd able to chase even 230.

India is looking far superior team than all the teams in the tournament,  i do not know which team will be able to beat India in this World Cup.
It's like either India will win this World Cup or we see them having an exit in the semi finals or the finals.

Coming to the prediction of the match, here we go.


Sri Lanka vs Afghanistan

Toss win: Sri Lanka
Team win: Afghanistan
Best Batsmen: Kusal Mendis
Best bowler: Rashid Khan

Well if you will question them then you have to question their source as well. Nevertheless, it's gambling and we all know that it's a worldwide phenomena. So there could be thousands in a given day playing and then losing big money. Not saying that it is accurate, but the amount of money flowing in casinos today are really huge as there are a lot of individuals that have been addicted already.

Yeah, people invest a lot of money in gambling and they lose a major portion of that money. So when a gambler loses, who is the one getting all that money?
It is the bookies, the casino site owners who gain all this money. So we can't imagine how much the gambling sites may earn.

It's really hard to question though if their games is rigged or not or they collude with others. Maybe as gamblers it's our responsibility to check whether they are provably fair or not. But who does it? Everyone just wanted to play, from dice game, to roulette to card games that Evolution gaming has.

The gambling sites do not have to be rigged in order to gain that much money. In fact, if a casino is honest they can earn more money as the gamblers will keep losing and keep playing in an honest casino. The rigged one may get some quick money but over a period of long term, they may lose the customers and the business.

By the way, i would like the source link for the report too in order to study in depth.
1607  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: October 29, 2023, 02:56:41 PM

England need 230 runs from 300 balls to win this crucial match against India. Keeping a team like India below 250 runs is not an easy task. England have lost a few matches in a row and they are trying to recover and maybe they will get back to winning ways with the India match. Chasing 230 runs, there is nothing not to win then opponents England. With enough balls in hand and enough runs on the wicket, England's batsmen should not be so aggressive early on. England's batsmen have tried to attack too much from the beginning in all the matches and because of this they have lost most of the matches. England must be patient today and leave the field after winning this match today.

The Indian team looked under pressure for the first time. Often their openers provide a good partnership. Due to which the middle order players are able to get the score to a good target without any pressure, but today shubman Gill 9 runs and Virat Kohli dismissal for no runs caused pressure for the middle order players.India three best players had returned to the pavilion for just 40 runs. Rohit Sharma played an excellent responsible innings and none of the players could stay at the crease for long.

 However, all England's bowlers performed well. A target of 230 runs is a low target that can only be defended if the Indian bowlers manage to get all the England players out. At this time 6 overs have been played and the England team has scored 33 runs for the loss of two players which is definitely a good sign for India.

I understand that India did not bat well but I think they did a good job playing the full 50 overs and did not lose all their wickets before 50 overs and managed to score 229 runs. At that time we felt that it may not be enough runs but as soon as the Indian team started bowling and took 5 quick wickets, all of sudden this total may seem adequate for the Indian team.

Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami took 2 wickets each and one wicket was taken by Kuldeep Yadav. With England, only 5 wickets remaining and the way the Indian bowlers are dominating at the moment, it is easy to predict that India may win this match even though they scored a mere of 229 runs.

Edit: Shami took another wicket just now,  Moeen Ali gone. England was 6 down now.

What are your thoughts on these strategies to assist me in achieving my $50,000 betting goal by 2024?

I think that you need to tell us how much money will you allocate for gambling in the year 2024. We don't know if this target is realistic or not because we do not know how much money you will be using for the betting. If you have anything between $20,000 to $30000 for wagering, then this may be achievable but if you have a supposed 1,000$ to 2000$ gambling portfolio, then I think you need to stretch a lot in order to get this target considering the risk involved in gambling, you may not achieve this target at all.

Anyways, i wish you the best of luck and i would like that you keep on telling us your progress from time to time as to what you have managed to achieve and where are you standing in terms of your 50,000$ goal.
1609  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: October 29, 2023, 10:36:15 AM
The pitch of Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow is not batting friendly. It is bowling friendly pitch. Indian batsmen should have batted carefully. The Indian batsmen were  very well informed about the pitch. Yet they batted like fools. And lost wickets very quickly. After 15 overs, India's total is 50/3. India are now under a lot of pressure after losing three important top-order batsmen. If Rohit Sharma is not able to play big innings then it will be very difficult for India to collect 200 runs. If India can deliver a target of 260-280 on this pitch, it will be a good enough target to fight for. But I think England will win today's match.

India did not start the match well today and lost three early wickets cheaply. Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer all of these batsmen got out without troubling and making any scores. However, as you said this wicket at  Lucknow is not batting friendly, Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul   are looking to stabilize the innings and both of them have taken the score to 100 runs.

If India can manage to keep wickets for last 10 overs, they can still reach a score near to 300 and it will be a match winning score on this pitch. Indian middle order is being tested today and so far KL Rahul along with Sharma are looking good.

At one time, the match was looking in England's favor but now the game is in balance and anyone can win this from here on in. If you get a good score on a bowling wicket, the chances increases for the team batting first.
 
1610  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Navigating the World of Online Gambling on: October 29, 2023, 10:21:49 AM
Something you must have before playing gambling is self-confidence and also understanding all the risks of losing money, gambling is not just about winning because the thing you have to understand is how if you experience defeat, you still accept it with grace, it is wrong to blame other people for gambling. for yourself, not for other people, so whatever you play, you face your own risk.

Self confidence is good but it won't work in gambling. If any gambler is self confident that he will win, then that's not going to work for him as there is no guarantee that he can win or lose in gambling. If a gambler initially makes up his mind that he will lose, only then he won't reject after losing because he already has made up his mind that the chances of losing are more than winning.


You are right that gambling is a game where there are wins and losses that must be faced by each user, therefore gamble wisely so you can limit your budget and yourself so you don't get addicted or even exceed your limits, gamble responsibly with yourself so you don't become an addict because if you fall into it, it will be difficult to recover.

Addiction in gambling is another extreme level of gambling and more people are addicted to gambling once online gambling has become popular. It is easy to become addicted to online gambling because one can access gambling at any time. In physical gambling, you have to get ready and go to the casino, but online gambling can be accessed at any odd time too like late night or early morning.

India is unbeaten so far and seems like they will remain unbeaten at least before Semis. England don't have much chance today against mighty India, they have just won one game so far and that'sagainst Bangladesh. If you are betting then its very risky to bet against India. India already in semis and England out from tournament. So it won't matter what will be outcome of today's game.

Today is the 29th match of this ODI World Cup, which is India vs England. Today’s match was played in Lucknow and I can bet that today the stadium of Lucknow will full with a full crowd because today is the match where the hosts India is playing and also today is Sunday means a holiday so many people in India will come to watch this match, which motivates Indian players to win this match.

Anyway, India has more chances to win because India is in the first position and England is in the last position, which is a very bad position in the point table even the Netherlands is upper than England in the point table (at least at the current date).
1612  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gender in Gambling [differences between Women and Men in Gambling] on: October 29, 2023, 07:06:58 AM
There may be casinos that don't allow women to enter, but some of the casinos I've seen have a lot of women because I think it's also a marketing technique from the casino company itself. With female employees, of course this will attract men to play in their casinos, and when they win, they seem to be tempted to increase the value of the bet so they can win, but behind the temptation they only aim to make the winnings run out again. So it will be profitable for the company again.

If the casino has some separate timings for the ladies or the casino does not allow women at all, that's a separate thing but usually, I do not see why the casino will not allow the women to enter in a physical casino. Yes, if there are only men in the casino and no female staff, then for sure, the female should refrain from entering that casino but the casino usually does not put any such restrictions. They want both men and women to visit their casinos and gamble.


I think there are also women who play gambling because they have enough money, but not all casinos allow them to enter to gamble or for other things. But most casinos must have women whether they are players or employees. There is no problem with women playing gambling as long as they have enough money, but it seems unnatural for women to play gambling. Especially now, with the current online gambling, of course everyone can play it with no exception. So at this time everyone can access it easily without having to go to the casino to gamble. Because in my opinion there is no rule that women are prohibited from gambling or is this a contradiction? I myself don't care about it hahahaha.

Online gambling is a separate thing, women can easily gamble online without facing any gender restrictions or any humiliations events that may happen to them in a physical casino.
I think that casinos should encourage women to be a part of gambling, both online and physically, and they should make sure to address any concerns raised by the women in terms of their security at the casinos.
1613  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: October 29, 2023, 05:07:29 AM
India vs England is basically a dead rubber match if you ask me since India pretty much qualified for the semi-finals while England is pretty much out of the semi-finals race based on my observations.

Am expecting this one to be a one-sided encounter where the current champions will continue embarassing themselves as usual.

England need to play for their pride. Even though they cannot qualify for the next stage (semi finals) but they should try to win the remaining matches and try to climb up on the points table. It does not look good that the former world champion England team is among the low teams in this WC.

I checked the odds and India will win this match one sided.  Wink The difference between the odds is too much. I think it is good to bet on India today and get 1.44 winning odds.

Another close match b/w nz and australia. This match was more interesting one and the way australia batted and newzealand started chasing was fantastic. newzealand fought till the last ball but unfortunately Neesham run out just before the last ball. on the other side Bangladesh played so badly and Netherland win an easy match...

Nice to see another close finish match. Even though Australia batted very well, New Zealand were even more better as when you are chasing such a big total, pressure is on your side and if you manage to reach so close to the total, it is a big achievement. They may take this confidence to chase in upcoming matches.

Today/s match, Anyone has doubt about the Indian performance  Wink

India Vs England

Toss win: India
Team win: India
Best Batsmen: Shubman Gill

The Tigers were in trouble when they scored 230 runs against the Netherlands.This match was a victory against the Netherlands.  But that hope disappeared into despair.Shakib Bahini did not care about the Netherlands.The Red Green team confirmed their departure from the World Cup with a shameful loss. I had high hopes that the Red Green team will win today. First the bowlers bowled brilliantly. But the Bangladesh team could not show a good performance with the bat.All-rounder Shakib Al Hasan disappointed the team. Today's match is really a shame.

The Netherlands won the second match in this World Cup and this is the first time the Netherlands won two matches. I think this World Cup is good for small teams to make history because Afghanistan also won two matches first time in a single tournament.

Anyway, coming to today’s match, the best player of today’s match is Paul van Meekeren.  He took four wickets and gave just 23 scores around seven overs. He did wonderful bowling. He out the main of the Bangladesh team and was the game changer player’s of his team, that’s why he is the man of the match.

Netherlands winning by 87 runs is a good achievement for a team that is relatively new among all the other teams.
1616  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quit gamble! Easy or Hard? Let's talk. on: October 28, 2023, 01:21:47 PM
Gambling with the hope of winning young is impossible because even if you play carefully, it is still very difficult to win, especially for those who play uncontrollably. I think very few people play gambling just for fun because most people who gamble of course want to win from the games they play and if we have experienced an addiction then it will be very difficult to stop gambling so it will be better to play our gambling can control ourselves so as not to easily spend the money we have on gambling.

Winning in gambling is hard, so people can quit gambling. But No, Even quitting in gambling is hard too. The reason for this is that no matter how many times you lose and how much money you win, there is always a hope of winning big.

You can ask different gamblers and all of them will say that they lost many times but no one will say that they want to quit gambling. This is the power and addiction of gambling. People can afford to lose in gambling but they can't imagine quitting gambling. It is the fun in gambling or the hope of winning, which will keep people involved in gambling.

BTW, Kiwi bowlers are looking hopeless against David Warner and Travis Head. Australia has raced to 46/0 after 4 overs.

Travis Head is going crazy here and he has scored his half century in just 25 balls. This is the fastest 50 of this world cup. David Warner has also scored 65 runs in only 37 balls.
They are going aggressively against New Zealand and have scored 118 runs in the 10 overs without losing any wickets. Trent Boult, Mitchell Santner, Lockie Ferguso and all the bowlers are looking helpless at the moment. If these fireworks does not stop, I am seeing 500 runs today.

By the way, Is the Australian team peaking at the right time? This show will be an eye opener for the Indians and South Africans who will probably be playing semi-finals with this Australian team.
1618  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think if you have a lot of money its hard to satisfy your ego in gambling on: October 28, 2023, 05:39:41 AM
We have threads here about people betting millions of dollars on sports battings and other games in casinos and the amount of money is insane, they can bet millions of dollars on one team and they easily forget everything and bet another millions.

I doubt if we have high rollers who will admit, that having a lot of money means you cannot satisfy your ego or that your level of enjoyment is high that you will need to bet millions of dollars just to fulfill your dopamine level.

What do you think, if I have millions I will be satisfied betting thousands of dollars for fear of addiction that will lead to losing my fortune, but I really don't know if I will reach that level of having millions and still be moderate in gambling.

If I had many millions of dollars, I would still avoid betting or gambling a million dollars on a single bet. That is too insane and too risky in my opinion. Would it be better if i could bet with 100$ per bet and participate in many bets, rather than going as a high roller? Gamblers are not in any sort of competition to the highest roller.

As far as the ego or the interest in gambling is concerned, it should not be related to how big is the size of my bet, rather I would be more focused on how many times I can bet and gamble. (as every time you gamble it gives you another level of feeling, fun and satisfaction.

Long story short, even if you have a lot of money, it is better to use it wisely rather than just throwing it away in a single bet. Also how many times can anyone place a million dollar bet? No one has unlimited money. So better think about what you are trying to do as money lost in a bet is lost forever no matter if it is 100$ or 1000$.
1619  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Spirituality and Betting - Do they Have any Connection? on: October 28, 2023, 05:15:30 AM
I don't think that a spiritual assignment or power can make you to win gambling and if it's so I think that gambling nobody would have missed to win in the gambling, because almost every body will go to a spiritual store to buy items and perform rituals before betting  of any kind in a different gambling websites, the connection between gambling and spiritual connections is very far, a gambling is something you have knowledge of and it means that you assume that this thing will be in this form and you are not sure of that, so for you win its by luck and some insights you already have on it.

Another thing to note is that most religions do not encourage gambling and some may strictly prohibited gambling and betting, so in that case, no one can use spiritual powers to gain an edge in gambling.

In most religions, in order to gain Spirituality, people may pray or worship and ask for divine help from nature, but when something is not allowed in religion, how can anyone ask such a thing from their god? Prayers do make your cause easy but you can only ask god to help you in those things which are not forbidden by religion.

So, in my opinion, when you gamble or bet, you are going against Spirituality and maybe that's why we lose more often than we win  Huh

Pakistan's cricket is on biggest setback as things are not going good in men and women cricket today we have double defeat one against Bangladesh women's and then against South Africa with most matches were winnable but due to poor strategy and batting teams lost these matches Bangladesh women's score 120 runs which was chase able but Pakistani women's completely fail to do this even they lost only seven wickets but too much dot balls hurt their chances for the win and now Bangladesh win their first ever series against Pakistan women's as well veteran Bismah Maroof score 30 runs on 44 balls which was really poor from her because now it's time to bring changes into their strategy and have some improved quality as well for the better results.

The second T20 was also won by Bangladesh women. If we look at the players of Pakistan so the previous captain of the Pakistan women’s cricket team Nida Dar also didn’t perform well in all formats.

Shorna Akter is the player of the match but I think she doesn’t deserve the medal of player of the match because she just scored 27 runs in 22 balls, which is a very cheap score but the other women of Bangladesh can’t do even 26 scores, so from nowhere she deserves the medal of player of the match. Bangladesh women’s do a very low score but Pakistan women's team can’t chase it and were all out at 100 runs.
