I think any club needs such players 
As for your observations, it rather suggests that playing against the "big" clubs Roma focuses on defense and, first of all, tries to play a draw, and in matches with the underdogs it tries to play according to the principle "we will score more than they can score to us." Probably with this in mind, the bet on the fact that both teams will score with odds of 1.61 looks like easy money (and I think that Roma will win this match).

By the way, I remembered the story of one successful bettor - Bob Voulgaris. Gambling had an obvious positive impact on his life: at first, he developed his own system for analyzing odds and finding inaccuracies (he specialized in the NBA) was able to win millions. After the world of big data (and apparently neural networks) came, he could no longer win as before, but he was hired to one of the NBA teams as an analyst.

Yes, if you look over the years, the fees are really not much different from other places. But the difference between paying 50k every year and paying a one-time 1 million is quite large. In general, on the one hand, it can be good - this million will be used as a reserve fund and players will be protected from surprises. But on the other hand, such a large down payment contributes to the monopolization of the market as it drives out small players.

I think it's too early to talk about the prospects in the europa league, since now even the list of participants in the 1/8 finals is not clear. Very strong teams from the Champions League (for example, Milan) can get there, and in this case Galatasaray will definitely not be the favorite of the tournament. I think about the chances we can talk about after the play-offs (which will take place before the 1/8 finals). In general, the format of the tournament certainly does not allow us to consider it serious.

You may be surprised, but a lot of people do this: they lose and have fun. Therefore, there is nothing wrong with delving into this topic. The fact that entertainment requires money is normal, but for some reason, only in the case of gambling is it called some kind of monstrous problem. While travel enthusiasts, collectors, etc. spend no less money on their hobbies.

Totally agree with you. The creation of separate threads for each fight is inevitable - during the time it takes to announce, prepare and then carry out a fight in football, it has time to go through a whole rally of the national championship. This is a huge distance. If we discuss all the fights in one thread, then it will be an unreadable mess.

As I understood from the article, all this money freebie was legal. We perfectly understand its meaning and this is obvious lobbying, and it looks very muddy, although from the point of view of the law everything is Ok.
I really did not like the other information from the article - as I understood, a reform will soon be carried out in the UK that will hit hard the gambling business, which is why the lobbyists of the companies have become so much more active.
In general, all that I understood from the article is that companies are forced (once again) to defend themselves against the fucking initiatives of officials.

По инвестированию хотел бы узнать мнения вот по какому моменту: если бросать работу/трейдинг или что там еще в пользу инвестирования то целевые уровни доходности должны быть адекватны (в процентах) - вряд ли вы сможете стабильно обгонять топов рынка на дистанции (а они имеют весьма скромную доходность если брать большие временные интервалы). И в то же время сумма инвестиций должна быть весьма значительна. Грубо говоря пусть вы гений инвестиций и можете стабильно получать 100%  в год, но инвестируя 10к долларов фактически вы не будете получать ничего так как прибыль будет проедаться. Если целевые уровни доходности взять реалистичными (20-30% в год), и ставить цель выше чем просто проедать прибыль, то необходимая сумма инвестиций растет на порядок, а то и полтора.
Соответственно есть ли вообще смысл уходить из мест (будь то трейдинг, бизнес или еще что) с большим потенциалом роста и большей оборачиваемостью средств до того как сколотили действительно большой инвестиционный капитал?
Есть аргумент что в венчурном инвестировании иксы совсем другие, но там и риск совсем другой и в любом случае проект реализуется (даже если в IT) не за месяц и даже не за полгода.

I don't think these are equivalent comparisons. If Verstappen crashes and Hemilton takes first place, he will be just 11 points ahead of Verstappen. This is an easy attack range for the remaining two races. In a situation where Hemilton gets 0 points, then this is an actual disaster, since the number of points being played is already very small (50 + -) and the gap increases dramatically. So I don't understand why the odds are actually the same.

In the match with Milan, Inter was also the favorite (if I remember correctly), but managed to take only one point. Therefore, there are no guarantees that his success will be better in the match against Napoli. Perhaps Napoli will win at all - personally, I think this outcome is no less likely than Inter's victory. Large of the bettors put their bets on the "name" and not on the team given its real strength, and the bookmakers take this into account, perhaps that is why, according to the odds, we see that Inter is the favorite.

I just added a 7th voice 
As for the analysis of real odds, as it was already written in this thread, bookmakers give Tyson odds of 1.67 and 2.3 for Paul. These chances for Paul are much more optimistic than the vote, where he has only 12%. Perhaps the bookmakers are wrong, but I don't think they are much wrong.

I would not say that this is an ironclad rule, but it really works often. I often make such bets when the underdog scores a goal first and the chances of winning the favorite grow, it is really profitable at a distance. But sometimes failures happen - like at Euro 2020, when Germany in the end could not defeat Hungary and the match ended in a draw (I lost that time).

Lewandowski is currently ranked second in the history of the best scorers in Bavaria. The legendary Müller (not Thomas, but Gerd) is in the first place and Lewandowski is almost 200 goals behind, but taking into account the fact that he scores an average of 45-50 goals per season, he may well have time to come out on top. It would be epic, I think.

Это как бы полностью проблема сетевиков. Если потребитель выбирает свою разрешенную мощность и оплачивает ее (а на таких объемах иное просто невозможно) то это уже проблемы сетевиков что их оборудование не тянет то что они подписались (за огромные кстати деньги) обеспечивать.
В общем смысла гадать нет что там конкретно придумали. На мой взгляд это все риски папуасий и нормальная логика здесь неприменима.

This is a small difference, if converted to percentages, it would be about 2.2%. Usually the bookmaker's margin is 4-6%, so even if we found a way to improve the odds by 2.2 percent, we are still losing to the bookmaker. I think a significant difference will be at least 5 percent, but I doubt that such cases (at least if we consider one bookmaker) happen (well, or let's say they happen regularly).

Is it too early to bet on this event? I would not do it now, even if I found an offer with good odds - freezing my money for 5 months is a very dubious idea. Plus, over these 5 months, a lot can change and it turns out that those good odds were not good at all. The situation and the mood of the public is changing quickly now, who knows how much people will go berserk from lockdowns/coronavirus and what this can lead to.

I think that, firstly, you underestimate Bayern and both Borussias, and secondly, you should keep statistics on the accuracy of your predictions. I often see them in different threads, but I'm lazy enough to check them back later, although I would love to take a look at your success at a good distance.

If you know the rules of the draw after the group stage, then you know that it is better to take first place than second 
It is clear that in most groups it was initially clear which two teams would reach the playoff stage and the distribution of the first two places was somewhat random. But in my opinion, the chances of bumping into a clear top team among the first places compared to the chances of meeting them in second place are distributed as 75 to 25 percent.

It seems that Montenegro has its own opinion regarding the order of teams in this group 
Turkey already conceded a goal in the 4th minute and it looks like it is in a very difficult situation. Now I understand that the draw between Montenegro and the Netherlands was not an accident. But in any case, if Norway loses, it will remain in third place.

You may be right (I don't follow these commands closely to argue the odds to this degree of accuracy). In this case, it is reasonable to make a relatively “safe” bet on the fact that both teams will score with 1.77 odds. I think if you take the distance, then the return from such a bet will be more even than if you bet on Lille (even if it is underestimated and it is profitable to bet on it at a distance).
