1001  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A person who won 600k$ in lottery on: September 24, 2023, 07:10:33 PM
What would you do if one day you won the lottery? What are you planning to buy and who do you want to include in your success?
For me  once I have my luckies day and win that big amount then all I can say is first I want to budget to build a business that will surpass in  the long run which is I'll choose to build a business that many people can avail which their needs is the best thing si business. And also I'll buy A house so that I'll have my own house and then some of my money I'll put in the bank . Then my main plan is investing a good coin .
I think buying materialistic things shouldn't be the priority in case one manages to win such a large amount, and it should be used to create businesses and income streams so that they can earn a lot of money through those income streams and then they can use that money to build whatever they want in their lives including houses, buying cars, or whatever they like to do, they can even start investing in cryptocurrencies or real estate once they have their income streams set.

The reason why I say that is because when you have multiple income streams, you will have a good cash inflow which will make your money keep increasing so that when you spend money on something, your wealth doesn't go down over time and it stays balanced or keep going up in the long run.

Again Bangladesh played better than expected. At one time, they were 131 for 3 wickets down only and it seems that if they batted well, they could reach a score of 300 runs but then the Bangladesh bowlers really bowled well and made them all out at 254 runs. The good is that all the Bangladesh bowlers took wickets while the most wickets come to Khaled Ahmed and Mahedi Hasan, both of them took three wickets each.

In chasing the target, Tamim Iqbal is looking good at 19 not out but he needs support from other end too, in order to chase this target, which is not big but at the same time not a small one too. They are 34 for 1 in the 7.4 overs. Still a long time in this match left to see who will come out as a winner in the match.
Ha ha ha ha Bangladesh playing better then expected lol. they already lost 5 wickets and score only 111 runs in 24.3 overs. It was not expected that Bangladesh would play so badly in their own stadium. It looks like Bangladesh will lose all wickets before crossing the target of 254 runs set by New Zealand. Not for the first time in today's match, Bangladesh always lose easy matches.  It's really funny. Bangladesh being a good cricket team, when they go down like this with New Zealand in their own stadium, it looks very bad.
Sodhi already done good damage with his quality bowling right now we are having interesting situation because veteran Mahmudulllah and newbie Mehdi Mirza at the crease, and they are still having target of 122 runs from 22 overs can they do from here or Kiwis will catch them it's good competition is going on between bat and ball.

We have 42 runs from the last 10 overs which are good for the home side even things are out of the way, but it's never been easy for any team to beat Bangladesh in white ball format at home, but this is going to be good for the both teams before the start of big ODI world cup required rate is still under 6 which is another good sign for the batting side because with these things can go into their favour.
1003  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are You Tax Efficient With Your Gambling Habbits? on: September 23, 2023, 05:52:19 AM
You say it with great propriety and you are right, things are like that, there is no way it can be anything else, the casinos are the ones who have to comply with the tax obligations, but the players do not, a player can comply with the tax obligation from a casino that is with money made from a bnaoc, or from a transfer, but the same bank charges it at once, and not for a cryptocurrency casino, but a currency casino like dollars, euros, there they may want it charge the person, because they may consider it as something of a luxury, but I do not agree, a cryptocurrency casino player should not pay any tax to anyone.
I believe countries where gambling is legal and online gambling platforms including cryptocurrency casinos are regulated, players will also have to pay taxes on their gambling winnings, but I'm not really sure if the authorities will actually find out if one has won or lost, however, if a casino is regulated, the casino might let the authorities know about the players that have got significant wins in a particular period so that they can ask for them taxes.

If a country has no regulations for cryptocurrencies or cryptocurrency gambling platforms, they will most probably not be able to find out if a player has won something significant within a month or not if the players themselves aren't filing their winnings and willing to pay taxes which barely happens.

There is really no argument on "no finances" type of stuff, Argentina is one of the poorest nations in the entire world and they just won the world cup, so that means money isn't everything. It's all about raising talents, all those Argentina stars ended up growing back in Argentina, but they all went to Europe because they have better facilities to make them better. That's what Africans need, networking. If they can get good scouting, and then networking, they could find talented young kids, and then send them to Europe to get better.

Do you really think that a kid that grows up to be 30 years old and play all his life in Ghana or Nigeria or anywhere like that would be a superstar? You raise them at max until 17 there then send them to Europe.
1005  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto betting on: September 22, 2023, 02:41:49 PM
We get addicted to things which release happy harmones in our brain with less effort.
Online gambling is more addictive because of factor like these:
Ease of access: we can start playing with just our phone laying on bed. no need to take effort of going down stairs, driving car, etc.
Bonuses: we get a lot of bonuses on thousands of online casinos.
Availability: online casinos are available 24 hours anytime we want to play just log in to any casino with our phone.

but there are many disadvantages also of online gambling like we cannot control ourselves to gamble responsibly, our mind not trust 100% to online casinos, etc.
One of the biggest disadvantages of online casinos is that there can be scam casinos which a person might not be aware of and once they make an account, deposit some money, and start gambling, they later find out when the casino doesn't allow them to withdraw their funds if they manage to get some wins, and that is how the person loses their money even after winning. And this thing doesn't happen with physical or land-based casinos since someone won't create an establishment only to scam people, they also can't do that without a proper license.

However, the points that you mentioned are true. Ease of access is the biggest reason why online casino platforms have become so much popular, especially after the pandemic when land-based casinos and everything else were closed down and people were doing everything online.
1006  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When Gamblers Fail to Read a Casino's Terms and Conditions on: September 22, 2023, 09:18:52 AM
I may agree with you but I do not totally agree with this:

3. Accuse the casino of not being transparent because they request KYC that they want to steal their personal information.
Some may not be transparent.

We have site that states boldly when you login into their site that no KYC, but in the ToS, KYC is mandatory. It that transparency?

Most gambling sites that enforce KYC will let users to deposit without KYC but they must pass KYC befor they can withdraw. Is that transparency?

But people should read gambling site ToS, it is important.
It's wrong if a platform preaches that they are a no-KYC platform but then they ask for KYC verification and also have it mentioned in their terms and conditions because in that case, they are simply lying to their customers. However, that's not the case with every platform because even if they don't say anything about KYC or whether it's mandatory or not, they will surely have the rule related to KYC mentioned in their terms and conditions to be read.

But most gamblers don't really read the terms and conditions, and because of that, they get in trouble somewhere in their gambling journey and then as OP said, they start blaming the platform for not being transparent with the rules when they clearly have everything mentioned in their terms and conditions.
1007  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why gambling beginners must not joke with casino announcement on: September 22, 2023, 07:20:45 AM
A quick warning to all gambling beginners, the most attractive ways that scam gambling websites get to you is bonuses and undeniable offers, I can see some new online casinos coming up with attracting bonuses to make you deposit some money and gamble, while they still have no reputation build yet but the offers are too good to the eye that you want to try it out, be cautious.

I don't like new casinos but I can use them to get the bonus they're offering but I won't stay with them for very long because they don't have a reputation yet. Most new casino are scam casino because they get alot of users and they didn't prepare for that type of users so their casino starts malfunctioning and before they can resolve the matter alot of individual has started calling them scammers.

After losing alot of reputation, they'll have to give up on the casino and scam their users. When a casino is offering bonuses and they're new and also been confirm to be fair, we can take advantage of the bonuses to get more profits but we have to be more cautious with them.
I don't think that scalability is the reason why new casinos scam their users. I mean, what kind of a casino will start malfunctioning when they get a lot of users? Isn't that what they want in the first place? When you start a business, you don't have a target for customers you will get only 50 customers and you only prepare your business to be able to manage just 50 and when there are more customers, your business starts falling apart. That doesn't make any sense.

If a new casino actually plans to scam its customers and run away with their money after some time, it will be prepared to get as many customers as possible because that will keep increasing the amount of money that they can steal and run away, so they will never let their system not have enough capacity to manage more customers.
1008  Economy / Gambling / Re: Hold'N'Spin trusted Crypto and Fiat Casino.50 Freespins on Register! on: September 21, 2023, 06:00:10 PM
Welcome to the forum!

The UI looks great, somewhat fresh, and has a different look than other platforms that I use or have seen. I checked the promotions page, and I didn't find anything other than the 175% first deposit bonus but you have mentioned about 50 free spins upon registration, how can that be claimed? And, you've also mentioned that the wagering requirements are low, but I can see that the 175% bonus comes with a 39x wagering requirement and I don't see that being low.

However, I like the loyalty program where one can get 6% cashback daily even if they are at Level 1 and that goes up to 16% when one reaches Level 5, and there are also free spins every week from Level 2 onwards along with monthly perks and cashbacks. I will surely give the platform a try.
1009  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Importance of Gambling to the society on: September 21, 2023, 02:46:54 PM
On the time that addictions goes into the point on being that too severe then this is where problems do really start because criminal acts or illegal doings would really be the main thing that comes up into your mind.
This is why it would really be that always important that you should really be having that kind of control when it comes to your actions despite of  that addiction then better not to commit out some foolish actions because once things do happen then pretty sure it would really be ending up on a disaster because this is where things turns out to be a mess if you dont have that kind of control.
Gambling addiction will only become dangerous for society if the addicted person lacks financial stability. That is because when the addicted person runs out of money but the urge to gamble keeps teasing them, they can think of doing anything just to get some money so that they can continue their gambling activities, and in pursuit of money, as you said, they can go to any extent like committing severe crimes like kidnapping people, robbing shops or people, etc.

However, if a person has money because they are rich or maybe have some income streams, and they get addicted, they wouldn't be a threat for society as long as they have money to keep gambling. Once they lose everything, they might start becoming dangerous as well and might harm others for money.
1010  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Typical scenario when you are losing on: September 21, 2023, 08:46:39 AM
It's too easy to say "just be self-disciplined."
Nobody knows all his inner demons. We perfectly see the weaknesses of others and their examples from life are always obvious and simple for us, but in fact we ourselves have neither the ability to look at ourselves from the outside nor self-control. Imagine that you won a large sum with the first bet.
Will your inner state remain the same?
I wrote that it's better to keep friends around, or write down your limit, or have only cash. The next time I go to the casino, I will definitely follow these rules, because you need to be especially strict with yourself.
That's exactly the thing, having self-control or staying within your limits is not as easy as one might think it is because if you are gambling regularly, you will probably find it hard to maintain a limit if you haven't been practicing that from the beginning. When someone wins a big amount or maybe loses more than they can afford to, that is when they don't remember about any limit or have any self-control, they will either become greedy and want more or will become angry and try to recover their losses.

And we all know what happens in both situations. When you get greedy, you will most probably lose what you have managed to win so far which is unfortunate, of course. When you become angry or emotional, you will deposit more money and try to recover your losses and lose that as well in most cases.

@OP Glad to see you here, buddy.
I wonder why do you wish to gamble online when major parts of Europe have open sportsbetting shops where you can place the bets by buying some tickets and then wait for the results? It's actually fun waiting there and watching the game till it ends.
However, I'd say that sportsbet.io had been one of the best sportsbetting gambling websites online which you should try. Their limits aren't low TBH and they allow you to withdraw almost instantly after wagering requirements are met. Should give it a shot as it's actually a big name and a huge competition to stake as well Wink
Are there actually places where you can buy a ticket to watch the game and also place a wager on a team or player playing that day? That's awesome! Gambling is not legal where I live, but I would obviously love to experience something like that where I can buy some drinks and snacks, place my bet on my favorite team, sit back, and watch the game live. That sounds like a lot of fun for someone who has a lot of free time and some money that they can use.

I've also never visited a land-based casino in my life so far and it's one of the wishes on my bucket list to visit a land-based casino one day and play some games there. I want to experience the thrill and the adrenaline that one feels when they are gambling at an actual table instead of sitting in front of the PC.
1012  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Personal favorite on: September 21, 2023, 04:49:42 AM
I've had the best luck, the fastest withdrawal and deposits from https://www.bitcoincasino.us/ they do require a 3x wager of amount deposit but the cash out immediately. What do any of you think?
I think I never played in this casino before and I can't give a clear review or perfection about them. Naturally you can easily check their ToS alto know their requirements maybe, since some of this also required kyc before withdrawal and I wouldn't want to discourage you on that aspect, what you will do is to look out for their kyc requirements and pass it before making deposit otherwise you might actually experience a different version of this site.
You probably didn't understand that the guy is trying to promote the casino platform in the forum in a different way so that people fall for this and go and try it out. However, I believe people do their research before they get involved with any casino platform because there are a lot of bad things happening in the industry lately where new casinos are looting innocent gamblers and running away with their funds when they see they have enough money.

However, the KYC requirement before a withdrawal is a norm these days and almost every centralized casino would ask you for complete KYC verification before you can make a withdrawal as long as it is a licensed platform, and someone shouldn't really gamble at a casino that doesn't have a license.

Al Nassr won the AFC Champions League match against Persepolis club from Iran, so they lead the standings for group E of the AFC champions league
However, there is a match that is no less important that they have to face this Saturday, as the home team Al Nassr will be very favored but Al Ahli is a team that is quite strong this season and they started the season better than Al Nassr, succeeding in winning this big match will be opens up opportunities for Al Nassr to improved their rank and have the same points as Al Ahli, and matches with teams that are currently above them will open up opportunities for Al Nassr to get closer to their competitors.
This was completely one-sided affair with Persepolis having poor quality but still they have done good resistance as after having 52nd minute red card Al Nassr able to score two goals and Persepolis were not able to have any shot on goal which was really miserable for them because they are second-best team in Iran and Persian Gulf Pro League is also having good quality.

Now after this win things are looking much better because next match is going to be play at home Al-Awwal Park Riyadh against Al Ahli which is currently having third spot and their start of this season is also impressive but their biggest defeat against Al Fateh and recent record against Al Nassr is clearly indicating we will have this match as one-sided for the Al Nassr, and they could be jumped at better spot.
1014  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Share Your Experience About Casinos You Found Here on: September 20, 2023, 01:09:40 PM
It would have been more interesting if you had tried more reputable casinos and had them reviewed in your thread just like how you did it with smaller ones. Your thread doesn't include some of the oldest and most reputable casinos available on the forum such as Stake, FortuneJack, Rollbot, Sportbet.io, etc. I would have loved it more if you had reviewed all those casinos because I'm not really a fan of joining smaller and new casinos only to try them out.

I always recommend new users to only join casinos that they find trustworthy after collecting community feedback so that they can avoid facing big issues such as scams or too much delay for withdrawals which is the most reported issue in casino platforms, that's why, it's better to stick with the best.
1015  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: September 20, 2023, 11:44:19 AM
Current top scorer standings in La Liga until week 5, Jude Bellingham lead top position awhile and have scored 5 goals and last season top scorer Robert Lewandowski have scored 3 goals. Its too early for predicting who will be close candidate become La Liga top scorer actually Barcelona and Real Madrid still not facing with bigger team. Last match against Real Sociedad, Jude Bellingham can't scoring goals and Robert lewandowski have scored one goals against Real Betis. For upcoming match both teams Madrid and Barcelona will face strong opponent and I don't think between Jude Bellingham and Robert Lewandowski will scoring goal. Specially for Jude Bellingham have interesting points although his position as midfielder but he has abilities for scoring goals and lead top scorer awhile from Robert Lewandowski as real striker.
Teams are adjusting their players and having strategy for their long run season just because of this we are having Jude Bellingham at the top of scorer list with in coming weeks we will have good changes because strikers will give their best and things will be also changed which bring new players at the top of scorer list specially right now Robert Lewandowski is facing some problem but as once he will start then surely we all know another golden boat is going to his way in this competition and Jude Bellingham which is midfielder but right now having some good time in attacking as well surely going to lose this spot.

Now today we will have a good match between Real Madrid vs Union Berlin which surely things could be favorable for the Real Madrid so can they produce result like Barcelona, or we will have another close win from it's going to be interesting.

The results are not that surprising for big teams like Manchester City and Barcelona who won easily against weak teams in their groups. However, several other results were no less exciting, such as PSG vs Dortmund which was finally won by the host PSG with a score of 2-0 and also Porto who managed to beat the host Galatasaray with a score of 1-3. For Leipzig, from the start, I had no doubts at all about the performance of this German team because basically their current attack line is also one of the strongest and they managed to beat hosts Young Boys with a score of 1-3.

However, there was one match that was quite boring with no goals being scored, namely Milan vs Newcastle and even though I know there were a lot of saves made by the Newcastle goalkeeper, Newcastle in this match still seemed to only be aiming for a draw rather than counterattacking. Undecided
Last night as this was first for the Champions League we have good time for the betters and all matches won by favorite teams nothing surprising happened in these matches and surely if punters have no profit from these matches then they can't take profit in future as well with things could be much difficult and surprising in coming rounds.

Here you are doing some mistake as Porto beats Shakhtar Donetsk, and we will have tonight Galatasaray vs Copenhagen Leipzig start was really impressive, and they were able to score three goals which mean things can go better for then in coming rounds as well with now on 4th October they are going to host Manchester City feeling sad for the Atlético Madrid as they have done good job but injury time goal bring them down against Lazio for the one point.
1017  Economy / Gambling / Re: Casinos not asking for KYC to register and play, but do require it to withdraw on: September 20, 2023, 07:20:32 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.

Most casinos follow the same pattern, some might not allow you to register if you are from a restricted country but they wouldn't stop you at the registration page to ask you for KYC verification and they will also allow you to make a deposit and gamble, but they might ask for KYC for withdrawals, that's a normal thing for centralized casinos these days.

Newcastle actually seems to be playing worse in the domestic league than AC Milan, who only lost once against Inter Milan yesterday. Ac Milan performed well at the start of this season while Newcastle has not shown good results in the EPL league, experiencing three consecutive defeats even though last week they narrowly won. against Brentford, but I think these two clubs definitely want to win, especially playing at Acmilan's home ground, of course Newcastle will find it difficult to win this match too.

But no one knows the strength of the two clubs in the domestic league and European championship league like the UCL, sometimes it always brings surprises that we don't imagine, playing bad in the domestic league doesn't necessarily mean playing bad in the UCL, I think the result of this first meeting will end in a draw and have to share points.   Wink
I do agree that Milan has a better chance if you ask me, but this is gambling and we may never know what's going to happen, specially when it comes down to teams like this, because the yare close in talent if you ask me and we would never know who will win.

I just assume that Milan will win because I find them to be a better team but that is my own personal opinion and I could be very wrong about this. Hopefully I am not, and we will see a win so that I could end up with a good profit, if Milan ends up losing, my bet will be a loss and I am fine with that too, not like it would be the first bet that I lose, I have seen a ton of it happen before so I wouldn't be really shocked about this one neither, it's normal.
1019  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: September 19, 2023, 05:21:55 PM
The performance of Napoli began to reduce towards the end of the last season. The club began to struggle to win games they had to wait longer to win the trophy because they couldn't secure a win or draw. Luciano Spalletti is not a magician but he would have managed the club better than the current coach. The reason is that he already understands Napoli players more than Rudi Garcia. The new coach is struggling to get used to this player and it is affecting the performance of the club. Napoli is facing stronger opposition this season than last season when the top clubs underperformed.
One of Napoli luck last season was because they got off to a perfect start, they were also able to maintain their performance by achieving consecutive wins. Another reason is because their competitors do not appear consistently which makes Napoli superior in gaining a large number of points. The points collected by Napoli are very difficult for their competitors to catch up even though their performance is starting to decline towards the end of the season.
Luciano Spalletti decision to step down from his position as coach of Napoli was very correct, he will always be remembered as one of the most instrumental coaches for Napoli. He is very aware that it will be difficult for him to win the Scudetto this season, other top teams will try to improve their performance in order to win the title race this season.
Agreed about this all from start of the season they were able to secure few good wins which give them advantage, and they have good lead from their opponents as well which help them to create pressure on teams, so they take this all in style but now in this season we have things are completely change and Napoli is on decline which are creating pressure on them which is surely going to have problem for them as well Luciano Spalletti and Victor Osimhen both were at their best which helps them for keeping things on track but in this season they have new coach Rudi Garcia which is having task for defending the title and keeping things on high note which is surely not easy.

Mostly having difference view about the Luciano Spalletti decision about stepping down from his spot but as we know Napoli is unpredictable side and things never been easy to defending title in Serie A so with this all it's look like this was good decision now we have to wait about new coach and his strategy about defending title.

According to the articles shared, sports betting will have the highest market gain in the next few years.
What do you think?
it will depend on the trend of the sport itself because we have many types of sports. one of the most famous is football. This trend makes many people bet on their favorite team. well, this will continue to be profitable on a stable basis as long as soccer doesn't have problems. if it has a problem it will definitely affect its gambling industry as well. I'm sure as long as there are fans of sports betting it will always be profitable for those who win it.
He said sports betting so I assume any sports are included on it. I do agree on what he said because many people are into sports and they elevate their hobby by placing a bet on their favorite teams/players. The feeling is great when you can earn money out your hobby. What more is that sports betting are mostly based on our knowledge of the sport or the teams/players that are playing.

No wonder why many bettors prefer it than the casino games but the title of the thread says "online gambling" and casino games are still part of the online gambling right? They are huge then if combined with sports betting. Although it's also possible to combine sports betting, casino games and other forms of gambling outside or IRL but it's still/more easy to create a gambling site and new games online and people can find convenience with them especially now that we are in the era of portability.
