1041  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: December 05, 2023, 12:10:41 PM
Vinicius Jr. is a very important attacking player for Real Madrid last three seasons. His role in the club becomes bigger in recent seasons but unfortunately, he started to get more injuries. Probably one of reasons is he was overused in recent season and his body reached its limit.
Since he came to Real Madrid, he became an important player for the winger position. He has great speed, amazing skills, and good mentality. His role becomes more important after Benzema was leaving the team. Without him, the power of Real Madrid attacking is surely decreasing a lot. But he must take a rest for few months because of the injury problem. Ancelotti must have the alternative players to replace him.

It's surely hard for Ancelotti to replace such a player like Vinicius Jr. but the coach has to figure out a best replacement he can do for the club because it will be decisive for Real Madrid achievements in this season, titles or no title.
Ancelotti has no choice, but Joselu and Brahim Díaz deserve to replace the position. I really expect Ancelotti will consider Brahim Díaz to replace the position until Vinicius recovers from the injury. Brahim Díaz already played for few matches, I think his performance is quite satisfying. I don't see any other player who has a better capability over Brahim Díaz.

Those clubs were strong but they are not as strong as al hilal. That was also sense explanation for him. Cheesy When you are leading the competition with the bigger game and it gives you more chance to win the trophy. It was not giving guarantee but if the club will able to keep up with this gap till last two matches then al hilal will be a winner. Al hilal is dominating the league now. The manchester city of saudi pro league.  Grin There are still many matches to come. The chance to make the gap becomes even bigger is still there.
They are strong but they can't play as a solid team like Al Hilal. After they beat Al Nassr, surely the chance to win the title bigger. But it doesn't mean they already win the title. It is true that there are still many remaining matches, so there are many possible things to happen. The point gap can be bigger, but it also can be smaller if Al Hilal fails to maintain their good performance in the future. Let's see if Al Hilal can keep their amazing performance! I only expect that Mitrovic and Savic have no problem with their fitness.

I wanna see al hilal to have at least 13 points gap toward the second place. Al hilal needs 6 points more gap toward the second place. Al hilal is always the best with mitrovic and savic.
If the point gap between Al Hilal and Al Nassr becomes 13 points, I think the race for the title is over already. There is no chance for Al Nassr and other teams in SPL to overtake the 1st place. Al Hilal can safely end the season with perfect achievement. They may be unbeatable until the end of the season. It probably breaks the new record in SPL.

The competition is going to be even stricter. Ittihad has been suffering the decline. I won't count it toward the title race.
If there is no some changes in the next few matches, we can exclude Al Ittihad and Al Ahli from the title race because the point gap is too big. Even Al Nassr seems difficult to compete for the title, they need 8 points to overtake Al Hilal in the top of Saudi Pro League. Honestly, Al Hilal is performing almost perfectly in the first half of this season.

Yes, it's not over for Manchester United, but what is the percentage for Manchester United to beat Bayern Munich to open up a chance of qualifying? I think it's very small even though they can win against Bayern Munich but their fate will still be determined by the result of the Copenhagen vs Galatasaray match, so Manchester United fans have to be realistic and accept if they are eliminated and that would be good so they can focus more on the English Premier League.
We all know the chance to beat Bayern Munich seems rather small, but it doesn't mean impossible. Although Man United performance also looks unconvincingly, they still have the chance to beat Bayern Munich. We predict that Bayern Munich will use their second tier players for the last match, it can prevent the injury problem for the main players. If this happens, Man United will have the chance to beat Bayern Munich. However, beating Bayern Munich isn't enough to qualify for the next round. They also should expect the match between Copenhagen vs Galatasaray will result in a draw. Honestly, only the miracle can lead the match to end with a draw. But, again I think it is not something impossible.

Manchester  United's defense is unlikely to  improve in front of Bayern Munich's attack. I don't think United will win this match. But  since the match is not important  for Bayern Munich. So the match is likely to be a draw. Bayern Munich drew goalless against Copenhagen.
If Bayern Munich play with their main attackers, Man United defenders may be difficult to stop them. But if Bayern Munich plays with the second tier attackers, Man United defenders can handle them. I don't think the match will end up with a draw if Man United struggle all out to score goals. There is no reason for Man United to play defensively in the final match because a win is a must for them.

West Ham United have quit well performance in Europe League and qualified to next round but their position not secure yet will automatically to 16 round or have to face eliminated UEFA Champion League team on playoff round. Have the same 12 points with SC Freiburg and one match left will be important for both team qualify automatically to 16 round or have to play on playoff round. Last match both team face each other and the winner will be the top standings after managing head to head with first meet, draw result enough for West Ham finish on top place Group A and they will set one place automatically to 16 round without playoff round.
West Ham played well in Europa League. They are leading the group A table. It is true that their position isn't safe yet because the total points are the same with the points of SC Freiburg. So, the final match will determine which team to qualify for the next round. But it will be the advantage for West Ham because they will play at home. They also ever defeated SC Freiburg in matchday 2, so they have a good history to face SC Freiburg. I'm sure West Ham will win again the match, West Ham will secure their position and qualify for the next round.

Europe League must be priority for West Ham after position dropping from Europe League spot place, I don't sure with West Ham performance inconsistency at domestic league will get spot for Europe League standings place next season.
West Ham will struggle all out to qualify for the next round. Although they played rather badly in EPL, it won't influence their good performance in Europa league. West Ham knows they must win because it is the only way to secure their status for the next round. I believe West Ham will got full points in the last match.

But unfortunately, I ended up losing the entire $55 dollar while I still had about $582 dollar in wager requirement, I am not confident enough to deposit and continue chasing, so I'm giving up.
What about you?
In this case, indeed, the best and wisest thing is to stop it. Sometimes, gambling really makes us full of joy because we gamble just for fun. But, not always, because, sometimes, the lure or temptation of money smells very sweet. So without realizing it, we have lost a lot of money in slots. Indeed, there is no doubt that slots are quite dangerous, especially for those of us who cannot really control ourselves and understand the risks, sometimes we chase results to get $100, and we feel incredibly happy. Meanwhile, in fact, it turns out that if we add it up, we have already spent $1000 on slots.
1046  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: coin memes don't have a project? Is it worth buying for the long term? on: December 04, 2023, 12:58:09 PM
Even though there is no clear project, many people are still interested in meme coin because they have increased by thousands of%.
 Are meme coin worth buying in the long term?
What is your reason for buying meme coin?
After the hype of Doge coin, it cannot be denied that the rise of meme coins is truly very significant. Many coin memes have emerged, even this year they are still appearing a lot. And most of them will always experience hype in the market and eventually many people will enter there. The price increases are sometimes very fantastic, allowing some investors to get very high gains.

But on the other hand, there are also many people who experience huge losses as a result of investing in meme coins. Maybe even more people suffer big losses, especially beginners in the crypto world. Because, the risk of investing in meme coins is very high.

That's why, when it comes to new meme coins other than Doge, I'm not sure if they can survive and are worth long term investment. This seems like something that carries a very big risk. Maybe most people believe that Shiba Inu can become like Doge, yes, maybe. But for low-risk takers, it's better to avoid long-term investments in meme coins.
1047  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Correction is possible in bitcoin price? After 40,000$ on: December 04, 2023, 11:18:23 AM
Bitcoin prices have been on the rise for the past two to three weeks, with no significant correction observed during this period. Currently, the bitcoin price hovers around $39,300. The surge in bitcoin prices can be attributed to the news of ETF approval circulating in the market.

However, what is your opinion? Do you anticipate a potential drop in the bitcoin price, revisiting $30,000 after reaching $40,000, or do you believe it will continue its upward trajectory towards $50,000?
Even this day for the moment, Bitcoin has touched $42,155 for its highest, of course this means it has exceeded the expected resistance. But of course, usually after there is a significant increase like this, there will be a market correction. And this definitely makes us need to be prepared to face any possibility of drastic price reductions too. It is also possible that later there will be sideways after the price falls at certain supports. Therefore, the point is that we have to remain alert and calm whatever the market conditions. However, the Bitcoin market remains volatile as always we have already know. So, don't panic when the market correction is coming.
1048  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I will invest the money to buy the land in Bitcoin. on: December 04, 2023, 11:14:35 AM
I am a government servant, working in regional land office.  At the end of five years of my working life, I have spent part of the salary I received during these five years for family and saved part for future.
This is a good condition, especially because you are a government servant. On my local exchange, government servants are actually not allowed to register on the exchange or invest in crypto because they are afraid of money laundering. So, if there is and can be, this is really good.

Since I have like 11 thousand dollars right now, I want to invest this amount in Bitcoin instead of keeping it in the bank. I know about investing in bitcoins and I know that there are risks involved, I am investing in the potential to grow money but I want to invest in bitcoins with the understanding that my money may go down due to market volatility.
One of the points here, as long as you understand Bitcoin, have sufficient knowledge about investing in Bitcoin, and moreover the risks of investing in Bitcoin, then you are ready. Therefore, maybe this is a good decision for you to invest this money in Bitcoin with all the risks. Anyway, you also have to keep an eye on the market, because you don't miss the moment if one day you have to take profits. and of course, seriously secure your assets and maintain their privacy for the security of you and your assets.
1049  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Risking 1% in Gambling on: December 04, 2023, 10:59:52 AM
Do you guys also follow a similar strategy like gambling with 1% or 2% on each game? This way not only we are safe from losing big amounts but at the same time, we never find ourselves in a situation where we go all in, in some bet and then have the fear of losing all of our money.
I don't have a specific percentage to use my money for gambling. I only always use a small amount of money, I never try to use more money if I have spent all the money allocated for gambling monthly. It is all about money management in gambling. We must be fully committed and comply with the rules for spending money that we have planned ourselves. I think it is the key to minimize the risk of losing huge money in gambling.

You must have heard 1% strategy in trading, the same can be applied in gambling too and believe me, you will feel a lot more comfortable using this 1% of your money in every game.
It is not impossible to apply in gambling, too. However, the situation can be different. Ideally, the funds for gambling should be lower than the funds for trading. We can optimize the chance to success in trading if we have good knowledge and experience. But it is rather impossible in gambling. So, we should use the money that we really afford to lose in gambling. It is 1% or less than 1%, depends on how big our monthly income.

1050  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why the rich win gambling more than the poor. on: December 04, 2023, 10:35:29 AM
I have observed that the rich, I mean those who are financially comfortable, win more in gambling than the poor.
How do you observe it?
I don't really understand it, do you mean the chance to win in gambling or it is about the number of the prize possible to win?
If you mean about the number of the prize, surely the rich man can win bigger prizes because they are capable to gamble with higher funds.

Could it be that the rich understand financial management more? Or could it be that the rich are less desperate to win which make them make better gambling decision?
It makes sense if the rich people may have a better understanding in financial management. They can't be rich people if they have poor financial management. But if it is related to knowledge about gambling, it has nothing to do with the financial status of someone. Rich man or poor man has the same chance to have a better gambling decision. Someone can have a better decision if he has good knowledge in gambling, has good mentality, and experienced enough.

It will be really something if Mbappé still stays in the PSG squad. It is time that he should leave. At least if he actually wants to have a great career. Because if he stays in the PSG squad, he is not going to be the great player that he wants to be.
It will be a big surprise if Mbappe decides to stay a longer time in PSG. I think he will be more difficult to leave if he extends his contract. Moreover, if the new contract has a long duration such as 4 years or 5 years. His career may end up at PSG forever, until his age above 30 years old. If it happens, he will miss the chance to have a better career and probably will never join Real Madrid. His dream to win UCL trophy will also never happen because I'm veru doubtful that PSG has the capability to win it.

I don't think he’s going to go to Manchester United. There is no chance of that happening. But I am interested to see what Liverpool and Arsenal think about him.
I also doubt it, he has no intention to join Man United, Liverpool, or Arsenal. I assume he will prefer to join Real Madrid that is his dream to be a part of Real Madrid squad since he is a kid. He almost reaches his dream to join Real Madrid, his contract will be over in the next year. It is the time that he is free to decide his career and won't be trapped in PSG anymore.

1052  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: December 04, 2023, 05:59:34 AM
As I predicted earlier that Inter Milan is strong opponent and they will never let Napoli dominate the match or even win.
But Napoli performance was still quite good because they were able to have greater possession of the ball than Inter, it just that Napoli front line really didn't seem that dominant in creating attacks that could break through Inter defense.
It is easy to predict Inter Milan will be a tough opponent, Inter Milan is one of the top teams in Serie A and they also played very consistently so far. They won 11 matches, 2 draws, and 1 lose only. Inter Milan maintain its position in the 1st place after they defeated Napoli with 3 goals. Inter Milan changed their tactics in second half, so they could play more offensive and got more shot opportunities. Although Napoli won the ball possessions in the first half, but they couldn't score a single goal in the second half. It seems Inter Milan defense quite strong, meanwhile Napoli attackers played unexpectedly.

This is a sign that Napoli will not win this Italian league title this season, because they are missing many potential players in this season that will make them not to survive at the end of the tournament..
Of course, there is no way that Napoli can win the title again this season. Only 2 teams that have a chance to win the title, they are Inter Milan and Juventus. I also doubt that AC Milan will have the chance to win it since AC Milan failed to maintain their good performance.

Investing in Bitcoin is indeed interesting and can be one way to achieve success. but of course nothing happens easily. Bitcoin is a risky thing. Sometimes we are also tempted to take profits and panic because prices suddenly soar and suddenly drop. Bitcoin volatility is indeed one of the challenges that we have to be smart about and manage so that we don't panic. In OP's case, there's actually no harm in taking profits first because they are used for something useful and not for panic selling. So, just keep on being enthusiastic about getting more Bitcoin accumulation and holding more.

I think it's time for Manchester City to make changes in their defence. In their last four games, they have conceded 10 goals despite investing so much in it. It is possible that their chances will get slimmer with the goals conceded, especially if it continues, even if they continue to score goals like they have been
If we analyze their recent formation, Man City played with 3 defenders now. I think this makes the weakness of Man City defense. Pep Guardiola may need to return the formation to 4 defenders. But if they played again with 4 defenders, their attacking can be not as offensive as now. Per Guardiola put 3 defenders probably wants to play more offensively.

I think Pep Guardiola can use 4 defenders for the big matches only. Meanwhile for the match against weak teams, Man City can play with 3 defenders and with more midfielders.

1056  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: December 03, 2023, 11:51:34 PM
He has no choice but to find a solution to the problem as one of the biggest issue of Vinicius Juniors injury is that it leaves Ancelotti with less options on other games. It will remove quite some speed from the game for them and they will probably play a little bit less offensive as Joselu can't create the same pressure for the opponents as Vinicius Junior can. But Real Madrid has so many reliable midfielders with qualities both defensively and offensively that they are still ok.
Indeed. Ancelotti is trying to find the solution for the long time absent of Vinicius. To replace Vinicius position, Ancelotti only has Joselu and Brahim Díaz. Arda Güler seems still not ready for the match, his injury doesn't fully recover. But I think Ancelotti has done the right way to deal with the current situation in Real Madrid. With the existing players, Real Madrid still can play effectively.

Actually, Joselu still needed time for adapting well with Real Madrid games play, last night he got appearance against Granada more than 70 but his performance under expectation with many time failure and wrong position when Madrid make counter attack, seems Joselu's performance still under expectations from Real Madrid fans. He had difficulty scoring goals and getting shots on target and was caught in an offside position several times.
Yes, he still needs more time to adapt with Real Madrid game style. But I am sure he will adapt faster if Ancelotti will give him more time to play. He may be difficult to adapt because he still doesn't play regularly.

The Liquidity pouring into BTC will eventually start pouring into top altcoins and we can already see it happening with likes of $SOL , LINK , $INJ etc making massive moves !

The obvious play here is to learn and leverage on top altcoins to buy
For long term? Why will you only hunt if the price has started to rise? Is it because you are worried when the price drops more than this? Hmmm, actually for some of the top altcoins, we were able to pay them in installments from the really bearish period at that time because the prices were still really down. but for now it has started to rise. If you want, just do it, but make sure it is a top koi that really has potential. Although there are no guarantees, some coins seem to be worth it. Like ETH, BNB, Matic, SOL, ADA and XRP. But this is not financial and investment advice. DYOR so you don't regret it. But actually, focus also on Bitcoin because this is the main thing

It is clear that Al Hilal is the only strongest club in the Saudi Pro League, no club can compete with Al Hilal's strength. Even though Al Nassr also looks strong with European star players, this is not enough to match the strength of the squad Al Hilal is very worthy if Al Hilal can win the title this season considering its consistency outstanding.
The only strong club? Do you exclude Al Nassr, Al Ahli, and Al Ittihad?
I don't think Al Hilal is the only strongest club, there 3 other strong teams as well.
If Al Hilal is in the 1st place, it is because they can play more consistently than other teams.

Yesterday's match was proof that Al Nassr cannot compete with Al Hilal in the race for the Saudi Pro League trophy because now Al Hilal has maintained quite a distance with Al Nassr, chasing 7 points, of course it is very difficult for Al Nassr, but even though Al Nassr cannot win 100% at least Al Nassr has tried hard to show their best this season and has not experienced any decline.
We can't conclude it according to a single match only. Although yesterday Al Hilal destroyed Al Nassr, it doesn't mean Al Nassr quality is lower than Al Hilal players. Leading with 7 points also doesn't guarantee the trophy yet. There are still many remaining matches, the chance to overtake Al Hilal is still very open.

Even though the situation is very difficult, Manchester United still has a chance to qualify for the round of 16. The only way for Manchester United to qualify for the last 16 is to win against Bayer Munchen and hope that the match between Copenhagen vs Galatasaray ends in a draw. Even though it's tough, in football anything can happen.
I agree with you. Although the situation is getting difficult for Man United but the chance isn't over yet. Winning against Bayern Munich isn't impossible if Bayern Munich won't play with their main players and with serious efforts. Bayern Munich possibly use their second tier players because they already qualified for the next round. I think Bayern Munich will prefer to let their main players to take a rest. Meanwhile for the match Copenhagen vs Galatasaray, it is difficult to predict the result of the match. But it is surely not impossible to end with a draw. If both teams play all out, a draw can be the reasonable result.
