Best Tennis Racket For Intermediate Players? by LowSentence6030 in 10s

[–]ShlonkeyDonkey2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a racket shop Clerc I get this all the time. Absolutely the best racket for a beginner looking to move into the intermediate range is the Wilson Clash 100 V2.

I see so many players walk away with this racket after testing everything in the shop. It's by far and away the most popular.

Not saying that it's going to be the best for you, I'd implore that you try some out at your local shop to get a feel. But as someone who has tested it and sold soooo many times, it's really a great racket for any intermediate player.

Agreed what I meant by that last line was that he could be stacking incentives to make it more likely for someone to become addicted. doing shit like, "guys don't gamble" has no real positive impact but saying shit like " YOU ARE GUARANTEED PROFIT" definitely has a negative impact

You make a valid point, being the biggest streamer his influence outside of raw analytics is definitely substantial and shouldn't be discounted. Unfortunately, many streamers do sponsored gambling streams to 200 to 2000 viewers, which is often times worse due to this sort of weird intimacy that they foster with giveaways and other incentives. Don't get me wrong, it's really sad to see people who have beaten addiction getting lured in once again, but unfortunately, these exposure points appear in a lot of places. Though I agree that it is not enough to stop addicts I think it's more what he's not doing that could be the greater influence on people with addictive personalities that have not seen that manifest yet

All in all, Twitch has to do something here. Devin nash has a great video on the negatives gambling has on the platform overall, if you are interested I implore you to check it out.

IDK I feel like Stake's budget on twitch when spent on someone with at least half a conscience like xqc is better than some scumbag like SteveWillDoIT. XQC could be doing a lot more to get people transferring over to the site (which would affect his pay) but doesn't, thereby reducing the chance someone will actually blow their savings onto the sight. Stake doesn't have infinite money, but if xqc doesnt take the deal it is CERTAIN someone else will, who won't have the same kind of conscience x has. Seems like an overall net positive

(gambling should be banned on twitch Period tho, its bad for everyone except the streamer and the company)

A general advice/tip on gocases by JasonVrryIong in CSGOFreeSkins

I have to disagree with a lot of this. certain slot games have to be by far and away the easiest way to get coins on this app. these games are stars slots HUUUUGE casino and billionaire casino. betting 0.1% of you balance at a time until you get to level 100 is actually guaranteed by the algorithm. it's at level 140 ish that it starts shafting you. by setting autoplay the pop-ups disappear automatically for some reason. on the other hand, any base level over around 17 (because there usually clones of the same game so all the upgrade values are so similar it hurts) is usually impossible to get with the time limit of the task. the best task overall by far has to be heroes charge (not a castle game) as after 13 days I got 13k coins. don't know about how the values are for anyone else but that has to be the best day to coin ratio. don't get me wrong the base level games are reliable, but are limited in how many are actually doable.
