Today there was a statement from Nazmul Hassan (president of the Bangladesh Cricket Board). He hinted that Shakib Al Hasan may miss the upcoming Indian tour. The team will be leaving in two days time, so I don't think that Shakib is left with many options. In case Shakib is left out of the squad, then the playing XI will be very much weakened. Already they are missing two big names (Mohammad Saifuddin and Tamim Iqbal).
It is just a statement just to put pressure on Shakib Al Hasan because if the Bangladesh cricket wanted to avoid him from the team they could have already done that but instead picking him in the team and then voicing their opinion that he could miss the tour does not make any sense other than making news headline and putting pressure on the player. If he is not in the team then it will create a big void in their performance because even with Shakib in the team there is no chance for Bangladesh.

It's not really strange. Cricket fans are not very tech savvy, they go to a field and lay down eating chips. It's not a gentleman's game it's a lazy spectator's sport. A lot has changed with the new formats limitations and the T20 mode, but its still a grill. And the only reason anyone talks about Cricket on Bitcointalk is because of signature campaigns. Not because of the game itself.
Basically all the sports fans who watches these sport are viewing for the love of the game and usually we watch at the comfort of our home or in the stadium and as a viewer you are putting your ass down and watching the game and if you view that as laziness then nothing more to tell  Tongue.
I know that this is a really old post but after seeing this now i feel like commenting.

I don't really think that you can associate a sport with how tech savvy its viewers are.
At last, it comes down to money and profits, like most of members here trying to get most out of the campaigns.
Anyone can have their opinion about things, quoting the post of DarkDays to show his high octane high energy games he plays and view, just want to show his hypocrisy. Not commenting on the campaigns as he is also involved in one and i just want to show his love for high octane games like brick mortar, virtual casino and on top of that Poker, he just view cricket for lazy spectators.

I'm a semi-professional Poker player based in Singapore.
I am very familiar with both the online casino and brick & mortar casino industries, and obviously know Poker like the back of my hand.

Some of them knows bitcoin at first that is only use for crime , we dont need to blame them or get pity them because of what they are thinking. Just tell them the advantages of it, it could be for long term and short term investment, for purchasing online goods and all the rest will follow. Know their reason too before judge them, then educate them.
If people are having a negative judgement about bitcoin without even knowing what it is all about how can we change their misinterpretation who has no interest about the new market nor interested to know about it and all they know and hear is the negative news, bitcoin as a financial asset is well documented several time in many financial magazines about the market and still they are least bothered to understand it, then it is better to leave them alone.

Yep, it was originally a much much faster rate but given that the price of BTC has jumped so significantly since the addition we slowed down the increase.
By the way I had to share this:

Considering these are back to back bets and given the bet amount how insane is this?!
It is really crazy to see these kind of rolls people still making when the price of bitcoin is well over $9k and winning 16 BTC in two consecutive rolls  Shocked it is just crazy and only in primedice we will see these kind of crazy rolls .

@ Stunna when can we expect the sportsbook from your team.

What is the point in changing the rules, after the damage was done already. For the millions of cricket fans around the world, New Zealand were the real champions. England would always be regarded as the cheaters. At least they should have kept quiet. Ben Stokes tried some drama by claiming that he asked the umpire to reverse the decision to award 6 runs of the overthrow, and it was rubbished by the umpire himself. And this just proved that the Brits are a bunch of liars.
@7788bitcoin has a point that the rules were made before the tournament but it was the dumbest rule set i have seen in cricket, earlier we had similar incident in 1992 world cup when the umpires cut short the game when South Africa need 22 runs from 13 balls against England and after the rain the umpires decided to cut short and asked to score 21 runs in 1 ball  Cheesy, it is said that because of television demands the umpires were forced to come with a decision like that, either way these dumb rules continued in 2019.

It is true that now odds will not be a good one but more concerned is that SL team would be demotivated with the kind of loss they had and now they will need to recover and bounce back if they want to make any impact in the series.
If Srilanka is able to win the toss and able to score runs then we can expect a good match as they could put pressure on the Aussie batsman if they are able to score a huge total but with the way in which the Aussies bowled today i find it difficult to see any upset, there was a time when they had power hitters but they lack that and they are not even experimenting as they have power strikers like Thisara Perera who have a really high strike rate and if they allow him to open in an innings we might see some explosive starts for Srilanka, not sure whether he is in the team.

Anybody agree with me?
2:00pm Newcastle 2-1 Wolves
Newcastle is leading the scorecard here and they already scored a goal, if i wage a bet i was going for under 3.5 goals.

Quote
4:30pm Arsenal 1-1 Crystal Palace
Both teams to score is a good bet in this match

Quote
4:30pm Liverpool 1-2 Tottenham
I am going with Liverpool in this match.

Quote
4:30pm Norwich 1-3 Man Utd
If i wage looking at the form of Manchester United i will not go for a bet like that, i am more over inclined to a draw than thinking Manchester United scores a few goals simply because of their recent disastrous form.
1228  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: October 27, 2019, 01:00:44 PM
A one sided match we had seen in this first T20 match and all the top order batsman made min 50 and this has boosted the opening of the series and for the OZ specially. SL would like to break the opening stand quickly in the second match else they would lose the match again.
I missed the match and the sad part is that we will not be getting good odds in the upcoming matches because the Australians dominated the entire match with bat and ball and looking at the score board it looks like a club team facing a top team, the Australian bowlers destroyed them without giving away any free runs and i am yet to watch the highlights.
1229  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: October 27, 2019, 08:46:47 AM
When it comes to IPL, my support goes for Chennai kings under the leadership of MS Dhoni and i am guessing the next cup will be lifted by them. The defending champions, Mumbai looks strong too and high chances that they will reach last leg this time as well. My bets on finale between CSK and MI.
Under Ms Dhoni Chennai kings is the team to beat in the IPL and the ease in which they are winning the tournament is astonishing and the amount of times they reached the final speaks for their performance as a team and in the history of IPL they reached the finals eight times and none of the teams play with that level of consistency and remember they were banned for two years.

Srilanka beat the number one T20 team with ease but the number 5 team trashed them Cheesy.

BTC shows very strange results. Day after day i see +3 -3 rates. +300 USD then -300 USD.
What is going on? And when we will see good news?
The bitcoin market was stable for sometime and if you were in the market for a long time you will not find these range that strange to accept but the recovery we had was astonishing as no one expected that to happen in this short period of time and if you had the opportunity when the market went down you could had made a good profit in a short period of time, it is too early to expect a big rally but we will see those rallies after the halving.
1231  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Financial Censorship, just another reason that bitcoin is important on: October 26, 2019, 06:40:22 PM
Crypto is good way against censorship is general, especially privacy ones. Whats why govs dont like it
The biggest censorship is the trade restrictions imposed by a government to its citizens or another country imposing their restrictions to another country and with crypto anyone can overcome those, the fate of privacy coins is to be seen when regulations are forced upon the exchanges, i doubt any government will allow any exchanges to trade these privacy coins.
1232  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: October 26, 2019, 03:19:09 PM
I guess that is the reason why India is lagging on international stage. They dedicate 2 complete months for IPL but not maintaining good rank in T20I rating.
The main reason for the low ranking is because i do not think they were playing T20 internationals like the rest of the nations and with the world cup coming up they are now concentrating on building a team and hence we will be seeing many tournaments in the lead up to the world cup.

Indian players are more suited to ODI and test formats. They don't have any power hitters, such as Andre Russell or Aaron Finch, nor do they have specialist T20 bowlers like Rashid Khan or Mitchell Santner. 
Players like Ashwin, Jadeja, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mohammed Shami and Bumrah is more than enough to challenge any batting line up and Rohit Sharma is more than enough to challenge any bowlers and Kohli can chase  any score and with the bowling lineup India has they are able to handle any team Tongue.
1233  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: BCH price prediction on: October 26, 2019, 02:41:57 PM
I sold a small percentage of my BTC today but still have the BCH I got with them. Not sure whether to sell them now too. What's everyone's thoughts on whether BCH will continue to move in tandem with the BTC price or whether it will outperform or underperform BTC. I have to admit I have never really followed its movement or predictions for its future - I have focused mainly on BTC.
If you are still holding these coins you can hold till we see a huge rally in the market and if you think you want to get rid of the coins get you at a profit rather than short selling right now if you are not having any financial issues, i do not think none of the coins in the market will outperform bitcoin in the next few years and then the decision is yours.
1234  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: who else think Litecoin will go huge? on: October 26, 2019, 11:30:30 AM
I believe that Litecoin is one of the greatest altcoins on the market right now. Halving has passed and the price is great to fill your bags. LTC would be definitely one of the first coins to raise when bulls will get into alts.
I am not against Litecoin but to say that it will be the first coin to rise when the bull market starts is a bit overrated, we did not see any movement in price even when the halving happened and everyone was expecting some movement but the halving is done and there is no change in the price and you expect the price to rally first Tongue. I am expecting the price to rally along the rest of the alt coin market and i am not expecting an all time high valuation this time.
1235  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Nigeria Naira becomes first Fiat currencies to be listed on Binance. on: October 25, 2019, 04:55:24 PM
No surprise here, Nigerians are one of the most active traders dominating the industry. When ranking the active traders in Africa, we're NO1 and our volume is also competing with other well know crypto friendly nations outside Africa. Nigeria naira becomes the first ever fiat currency to get listed on Binance and this will help us massively as before now localbitcoin has always been the main source of buying bitcoin for cryptocurrency enthusiast (traders and Investors).
 
I have seriously no idea about Nigerians dominating the trading industry as i have other misconception to be frank and good to hear that binance listed fiat simply because of the trading volume  Shocked. It is a good development for the entire continent and i wonder why there is a huge trading volume, is it because there is no trust in the official political system and the economy or is it because of the opportunity and the freedom the market gives.

1236  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: October 25, 2019, 02:45:44 PM
As far as I know, Dhoni, Kohli and most other senior players will not play in the Bangladesh tour. I guess team will be a combination of both young and senior, BCCI is likely to try with young players. It would be certainly good for future team.
I did not knew that they already selected the team and majority are fresh faces

Here is the Indian squad for the series

1237  Economy / Speculation / Re: 20K by March, A positive Look at the market. on: October 25, 2019, 02:09:48 PM
The only increase that I could see now is that the market recovering back to the value of $10000 by the end of this year, while the bull run will start fully by next year. It is still speculation though, we just need some good news such as regulation, adoption by very powerful government and we will see that the value does not even have to wait for halving for it to rise, so everything still depends on the fundamentals that will occur at that time.
In the coming years we will see regulations being implemented in the market and i am expecting the market to reach around $10k by the end of this year and i am not expecting any big rally again this year, there is a serious economic slow down around the world and it is to be seen how the bitcoin market will react to that too, everyone is expecting the price to rise after halving but what happens we see a economic crisis is yet to be seen.
1238  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Plunging to $6K before Big Recovery on: October 25, 2019, 12:16:58 PM
Many analysts are now saying that soon Bitcoin will be breaching the $6000 territory before the coin will have the chance for a remarkable recovery due to the coming halving next year. I don't want to believe that $6000 can be possible but I think this is now the consensus of many people so there is a big possibility for this to happen soon.
I usually wonder who are these analyst who predicts these things and my genuine doubt is that why would the market breach the $6000 to make a recovery, it is possible to hold the market with the current valuation till the halving and since everyone is expecting a rally after that everyone is trying their best to create panic so that the market goes down so that they can purchase more at a lower price Tongue.


I understand that there are now many waiting orders in the $6000 range making this level a very good opportunity to enter Bitcoin again and add more coins. Will you wait until Bitcoin touches $6000+ before making any move? Should we consider $6000 as the bottom of this ongoing dip?
Maybe these experts you mentioned earlier are waiting to enter at $6k  Cheesy.
1239  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: October 25, 2019, 09:50:11 AM
I wont say its unfair to Dhoni but i would put it like this " Preparation for T-20 WC next year" and I strongly believe that everyone including team management wants to give Dhoni a farewell series or game. as of now management eyeing on T-20 WC that's why they are focusing on Rishab Pant and Sanju Samson (batsman who can act as keeper) as a wicket keeper batsman. who knows if they both fail then there might be some chances for Dhoni to play in T-20 WC.
To prepare the team for the next world cup is a good thing and if they are giving Sanju Samson and other young talents an opportunity then it will be great, Bangladesh will be touring India and it will be a good time to test new players and give them the opportunity to have some exposure playing international cricket, Rishab Pant got some opportunities it is time to test the rest of the players that are performing well in the IPL.
1240  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: October 24, 2019, 04:48:44 PM
Seems Dhoni is not in Team management T-20 WC plan anymore, as far as i remember Dhoni wanted to play in T-20 wc. Truth to be told Dhoni needs to speak about his retirement plan asap, may be everything is behind the curtains or we can only wait for his farewell game? 
It is really unfair to do that to Dhoni as majority of the Indian fans want to see Dhoni in the team and give him a farewell as he is the first T20 world cup winning captain where he took a young team and surprised everyone by bringing home the trophy and that kick started the T20 trend in Indian and hence IPL was introduced and became a huge success, so give him a good farewell as a token of respect.
