replied to World Cup 2018 in FIFA World Cup Quote Originally Posted by BetCrimes1984: Excuse me for 'hijacking' your thread, van, but I think these stats deserve to be viewed (& obv. this thread is well viewed) and it might be useful for you to learn as well going forward: Couple of historical scoreline angles that I can't see being ignored...(1) All 8 WC's that have involved the R16 format have delivered a 90 min 0-0 knockout result.8 knockout games in and none so far. To me, Uru/Fra & Swe/Eng would seem to be the biggest candidates to end the drought. I think the other two games will deliver at least 2 goals each. (2) All 8 WC's that have involved the R16 format have delivered a 2-1 knockout result.There's been 26(!) of these results (17 in 90 mins; 9 after ET: the only WC of the 8 to not deliver a 90 min 2-1 result happens to be the only WC ever played in Asia), that's a rate greater than 3 per WC yet here we've had none with half of the knockout games done & dusted. While history guarantees nothing in the present, I struggle to believe that both of these scorelines will just happen to fail to appear for the first time at the same WC. One of them? Always a chance, but both? Don't believe it. BetCrimes, I loved the unders off a bye week thread in NFL I stole this from a DFS forum: There have been 26 penalty shootouts at the World Cup. Leaving out: -the two finals shootouts, since there wasn’t a next game -games in which the shootout winner met another in the next game (France and West Germany in ’86, Argentina and West Germany in ’90) the shootout winners have gone 4-16 in their next match. Since 1998 only Brazil in 2014 has won, and they then proceeded to lose in the following round by six goals. Teams that have won in extra time have gone 9-22 in their next match. Since 2002 it’s 3-14. Those extra 30 minutes take a toll. View Post \| View Thread	vanzack	799	July 05, 2018 View Post \| View Thread

Because SuxUFSwallows is holding Brazil and Russia to win bets. Mexico will probably score first, or at least in the first half.

replied to Bitcoins for gambling.... in General Discussion Quote Originally Posted by Hirschfelder: bitcoins for gambling No serious business will accept them.

If people don't know what a bubble is then by all means get your hands on bitcoins The drug and gambling business is a very serious business bro. Those of us that missed out early certainly hope the bubble will come soon, and then things stabilize so we can get in still somewhat early.

replied to Bitcoins for gambling.... in General Discussion Quote Originally Posted by chisy22: that's it darn it I'm going to buy a few, wish I listened orginally at 40$ when this thread started but I dont want to be saying the same thing in a year. Anyone have any tips on how to purchase and or store them as to not get hacked? I like most want to buy some but have some reservations around security. I personally think this type of currency will be the future. If it is bitcoins and not the next one that comes along we will be kicking ourselves for not pulling the trigger. I have been wanting to buy since this thread came out and got serious when it was up to 80. Here's some links to the discussion around storing/security: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Securing_your_wallet https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=17240.0 It seems complicated but it is probably a breeze once you learn.

replied to Info on 5dimes, you decide on who is correct here. in General Discussion Quote Originally Posted by TheCrow: i stand firm on that especially in a tough economy, taking no chances.

Well regarding the blacklist, you really think thegreek or some oher book won't take his action because of 5Dimes incompentence?

replied to Info on 5dimes, you decide on who is correct here. in General Discussion Quote Originally Posted by TheCrow: Dan bouton is pretty much done with being able to play with any online sportsbooks, if i were him, i would not even trust the las vegas casinos for fear that offshore books can blacklist anyone even though they are in another country. dan bouton to me would have no choice but to have runners if he wants to place significant bets. You can't be serious? Sure 30k is a decent amount of money, but in this business it's not a significant amount of money. garbage, if my local had a 30k set back, it wouldn't be the end of his world and he wouldn't risk his reputation by acting like a little b itch and making unjust threats. A REAL class book would honor their clear mistake as they had ample opportunity to protect themselves at several levels. They failed on the reviewing the lines when requested, they failed in paying the bet, and they failed on the cash out. A REAL class book would simply wait for the bettor to lose the money back. Now, they stand no chance as Dan won't dare risk playing with the bafoons. Tony is a terrible business'man' View Post \| View Thread	Lippsman	95	February 15, 2013 View Post \| View Thread
replied to Info on 5dimes, you decide on who is correct here. in General Discussion Seriously, what a little b itch. This is terrible publicity for an operation of their size, even if you believe its over 30k and not 3k. View Post \| View Thread	Lippsman	95	February 15, 2013 View Post \| View Thread
replied to Info on 5dimes, you decide on who is correct here. in General Discussion Quote Originally Posted by thorpe: I have to side with Tony. Does this guy win 32K if he did not steal the first 4K? Let me give you a simpler example. Suppose, 5 Dimes has a bad line and it pays me 100,000 by mistake. I take the 100,000 and bet it all on a big ML favorite at -1000 and I win 10,000 more. When 5 Dimes figures it out, do I get to keep the 10,000 from the ML bet? But it wasn't 100k. This is a Tony/5Dimes issue, not the players issue. Clearly 5dimes was made several mistakes. I am in disbelief Tony is acting like a little b itch over 3k. All the future winnings were legit. 5Dimes booked the action, they pay. What a sore loser. All the tough guy talk, lol, yeah right, what a joke.

replied to Doesnt the clock stop on a sack? And there was 1 sec left in NFL Betting So should the refs have stopped the ball for a few seconds after the sack until the ball was set? Russel had barely had a second to get the snap off. View Post \| View Thread	Gambleholic	23	January 13, 2013 View Post \| View Thread

So for fun, I referenced the charts on all my matchups and the guys with good mojo had outplayed the guys with bad mojo at a decent clip. Did you track any of the results?
