in regard to UI as there are different perspectives among the gamblers and it's really a self explanatory fact that they have to choose or to put this thing into considerations, I believe that it's more n how trustable the site or the sport-house will be and how they handle the client in terms of real-time supports and the competitive odds that they have inside the house, plus the perks and wide scopes of available sports and places that they can cover.

One-stop place where you can sort all those games that you know and wanted to bet with, just an opinion, but the focus is on the reputations and with how the team handles their clients.
That is definitely a good one, and this is how Stake is doing it, they have a sportsbook AND a casino at the same time and they have tons of staff that is working on support, these are all good right? Well, I can still find some tiny issues, sometimes those matter, sometimes they don't. For example, I have always warned stake that they are a premium place, they are making it look like they are going to only cater to wealthy people and that's not bad for their business, that is good for income, but us poor people may not want to play there, that's one.

Another one is the fact that their sportsbook has worse odds than their competition so it looks like they are not going to be preferred when I can get better odds somewhere else. So its not all about just finding a place that does it all.

as expected west ham won in the first leg and won again in the second leg, they were under a lot of pressure in this game and it's even unbelievable that they only had 30% of ball possession while AZ had 70% but couldn't score a goal managed to move on to another phase, on the contrary they had the misfortune of seeing a goal from west ham at 90 + 4 minutes, without a doubt it was a big bucket of cold water thrown on the heads of the AZ players when they conceded the goal, all their efforts were destroyed , but just like European competitions, most of the time the team with the most luck and strategy wins and not the best team

Well, Fiorentina was very lucky in this game, without a doubt that Fiorentina can get good results when they make an effort, but I think that Basel was just unlucky, it's not because they are inferior to Fiorentina that they stayed, they just weren't lucky in this game. so we will see Fiorentina playing against West Ham in the final, in my opinion in this scenario I see Fiorentina being champions, if Fiorentina is playing well like today then they will be champions, but if they don't play well then West Ham has a good defense in these European games you can come out with victory
I think it is going to be West Ham win at the end, Fiorentina is a good team but West ham looks much better and dominating a lot easier as well. Lets see how it will end, it will be fun to watch, all three are looking fun to watch. I think they did a great thing by adding this league, for the past 2 years we are getting extra games to watch and I feel like that's a great idea, not many people would insist on something like this and they did and this improved the brand value of it as well.

At first I assumed I would not care because it would be only low level teams that would play here, but since last years semi finals I try to watch all of it because it looks like we are watching something entertaining anyway, not at UCL or Europa level, but still close competition between clubs.

Juventus were unlucky but Sevilla were very good at taking advantage of opportunities and reaching their goal in extra time.
However this will have cost effort, they must recover for the next match against Roma.
And in the end Sevilla showed that they are not easy to beat, no matter how favored their opponents are. After previously they managed to get rid of Manchester United, now they are doing it again by getting rid of Juventus. Now we have confirmed the two teams that will appear in the final, between Sevilla vs AS Roma.
That's true, plus I think there were a few positions where they were not giving the chance neither. Like that cuadrado move was 100% penalty and without a doubt should have been given, and yet the ref still didn't give it, even with the VAR and all, it wasn't given and that's a damn shame, glad that they won but if they lost this game then that position would have been considered as a dark mark for the whole game and everyone would have been still talking about it.

I mean they won and I am still talking about it, imagine how many more people would have done that. In the end they are at the finals and there is a good chance that they could win it yet again. They are really a great club for this tournament, even when the roster changes, they still do great.

There are many people who think letting America host the 2026 world cup was a wrong decision and that they will have problems visiting this country to watch the World Cup games but I disagree and I think since America got the experience of hosting other great tournaments, they won't disappoint us and we are going to see a better world cup than what we saw in Qatar.
Obviously it will be better than Qatar and at least there will be no discrimination against unmarried couples and beer will be made available at the stadiums. Hotel rooms will be less expensive and travel will also be easier. But none of this matters, if the fans are unable to get a visa. Anyway, we have 3 years to go for the start of the tournament. Hopefully we will get some clarification regarding the visa issue by then. BTW, a lot can happen in three years. POTUS election is scheduled in around one and half years, for example. It's outcome can have a huge impact on the visa rules.
I think there will be special visa cases for this situation. I have seen Istanbul visa for this years UCL finals and they only ask for a ticket, nothing more, if you have the ticket they give you a visa for 3 months, the game is just one night. If it's the same for world cup as well then people will be fine, and yes I get it, it's easier to get a visa to Turkey than to get one for USA I assume, that must be true, I have never tried it for both so far so I can't really say, but it does make sense if that's like that.

But if you get just a single world cup ticket, and a hotel booking ,showing those two should be more than enough and you will probably get a visa. They will not have a reason not to take you in unless you are a criminal or something, it must be easier than normal times.
1165  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If I have $40,000 to invest in one #cryptocurrency. on: May 18, 2023, 08:29:42 PM
$40,000 is a large amount of money that many people can use to make life-changing plans. There are many coins for investment but I will not invest in all of them. Because I want to keep my money safe. I don't want to take high risk. If I had 4-6 thousand dollars I would definitely try to select more coins. Currently I want to buy 1 btc and 5 ether and after that I will buy doge coin and hold it for long term.
You have made a good choice for a long term investment plan, I think you should also allocate funds for BNB investment instead of meme coins, but if you want to add doge coins then it is better not more than 10% of the total investment, so just focus on BTC investments and The top 2 altcoins because your investment guarantee will increase if the market price has increased.
I think that is the important thing to remember, the diversification and if you could do that carefully then you are going to be fine. A lot of people are not doing it the right way and that causes them a lot of trouble when one of them gets hurt. I believe that if you can spread it carefully then you should be fine, unless you spread it to a lot of terrible stuff.

I have seen people put their money into 20 coins that are out of top 100, that is technically diversification as well but we all know that it's a bad one and should not have been done. I mean diversification on the top names, if you do that then the result will be much better and you will be able to make a profit in time. It won't be tomorrow, it won't be billionaire, but it will be making you richer than today.
1166  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: May 18, 2023, 07:46:21 PM
As AC Milan failed to qualify for the Champions League final, they will now aim to stay in the top four of the Serie A table. The AC Milan team is strong enough but their performance is quite weak now. Milan has not played well in the last few matches. However, the chances of Milan winning against Sampdoria in the next match are high. Because Sampdoria is the weakest team this season. If Milan can win the next three matches, they will have a chance to qualify for the Champions League. However, it is not certain whether AC Milan will qualify for the Champions League.
That's not going to be easy, there are 3 more games left and 4 point difference between them and their UCL dream of next season. That's not impossible, 9 vs 4 points, so it could still potentially happen but we need 2 things for that to happen and I do not see those two things happening all at the same time at all.

First of all, Milan needs to win all three games, which is doable and I doubt even that would happen but lets assume for a second that it will happen. Second one is harder, which is Lazio losing 4 points out of 9 points, so that would require them to lose 2 out of 3, or at least have 1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss, which would be 4 points so they would lose 5 points. I do not think that will happen, Lazio will get at least 2 wins out of the last 3 games.

Freiburg and Union Berlin will definitely play internationally next season. The only question now is whether they will play Champignons or Europa League. Freiburg has an opponent in each of the next two games who is also playing for the international places. Wolfsburg and Frankfurt.
Union Berlin has a bit easier remaining programme. But they still have to play against Hoffenheim. That will not be an easy game because Hoffenheim is still playing against relegation.
In my opinion, the biggest chance for a UCL spot belongs to Union Berlin, as you said they have a slightly easier opponent than Freiburg. Talking about Union Berlin, previously people thought that they would be able to break Bayern Munich's dominance in the Bundesliga.

But it's all just wishful thinking. Overall, they have done their best, playing for the UCL next season is also not a bad result, because we know how this small team struggles in the Bundesliga.
I definitely agree, they are already at the fourth position and all they have to do is to make sure they keep doing that and that is why I believe that it should not be considered a bad situation for them. I think it is obvious that Union Berlin had a good season, and they are the fourth best team as well as being ranked there, it is not like they got lucky or others played worse than they should etc etc, they just played better than everyone else and deserved to be there and I believe that we should not be doing anything that is like that.

I understand that we are at a level where it is going to end up being something that is a bit longer and I believe that we should not be considering them to lose anytime soon, they will keep their position without a doubt.

Here's the updated Lakers vs Nuggets series odds.



You see the betting odds for the Lakers? They are quite high, offering a significant payout if they end up winning the series.

This presents another opportunity for those who have confidence in the Lakers, especially since they are only down 1 game in the series.
Against the Memphis and the Warriors though, the Lakers haven't been down 0-1 as they both win game 1 in the road. But this time, not going to work against the Nuggets, although they made a good comeback and cut the lead to single digits with that Reaves back to back 3's, it's not enough though to win game 1 so the pressure right now for them is greater in the playoff to win at least a game in the road.

So it's really hard to put a beat on team, although if you have them at +7.5 the last time, you might have won close to 2.x if I'm not mistaken.
There was a clear reason why Lakers were considered not to win this, and we have seen why that was the case. I think second game will not be that much different, most of the time road team ends up getting a win on the first game if they can, and home team wins the second game because they adjust accordingly, nothing surprising.

This time around they had a terrible shooting at the start and even with that they still managed to lead, that is important because they had offensive rebounds like crazy. I believe that AD clamping down on Jokic made Jokic not that bad, but it caused Lakers rebounding a lot worse, normally AD would have gotten those rebounds if he wasn't marking Jokic so closely, and not like that worked, Jokic still had an unbelievable game.

Thomas Tuchel has just become Bayern coach, of course he needs time to adapt even though at the beginning of his arrival they suffered a lot of bad results, but now I see that Thomas Tuchel's tactics are slowly starting to blend in with the Bayern players and can run well.

the match against Leipzig seemed to be the final for Bayern and their motivation to win this game is quite big. The Bundesliga is the only title they can possibly win, I believe they will not miss this.

although Leipzig's performance is quite good at the moment but I think that also applies to Bayern, Bayern are in good form now and the mentality is high after the series of positive results they have had in their last few matches.
Think about it this way, this guy has been the manager for just a small amount of time, but whenever he has managed a team, has he ever played terrible football? I think it is important to remember that he is a good manager to begin with and he will definitely get a great result for Bayern.

Right now Bayern is on the brink of a new era, some of the older players will eventually leave we all know that, they won 10 titles and all but they need to revamp the whole squad aside from players that are younger. You can't do that all in a single season, but each season one older player will leave and another will replace. Tuchel is the best manager to do that seamlessly, he will be able to bring the team so much success, probably in UCL as well.

Manchester United are just continuing to risk their chance about qualifying for the Champions League now. They lost two games recently and finally improved their morale a little by beating Wolves. But this needs to keep going if they want to secure their position. Because Liverpool have been unstoppable for so many weeks. They are fully dedicated about making it to top four.

Manchester United and Newcastle both have one more missing game to play compared to Liverpool. This is an advantage to make use of in my opinion. If both of them keep going decently Liverpool will just have to make do with that winning streak at the end of the season.
I think they will do just fine, I still think that Newcastle will be the one that loses that chance eventually and they will get it risked very soon as well. There are a lot of people who ended up with a lot of lost points so far and those teams will regret those easy point losses but Newcastle looks like a team that is not ready for the top places to me and Liverpool United duo will take that last two spot.

However, this is football of course and we do not know who will do how well and that is why it's important to keep focusing on what we can predict, Newcastle maybe will end up getting both wins and they will end up with a third place and they will be quite happy with that, I am not saying that's impossible, it could very well happen.

When a club demand an unreasonable price, it's mean the club isn't want to let their player to leave, but if the club can fulfill the price, AC Milan don't mind about it because they can sign 2 good strikers after the trade completed. Leao is just a potential good young player, it's still potential which mean he could become as good as Osimhen, but I don't expect he will reach Mbappe or Haaland's level. Or Leao will become a bad player like Nunez in Liverpool where he was a very good player in Benfica.
He became an important player in Ac Milan body in the last 2 seasons so it's no wonder ac milan set a high release clause for him. Leao will stay with AC Milan until 2028 when he signed a new contract this week and the speculation over his future has ended. He got what he wanted at Ac Milan and i think his future will be pretty good at ac milan in the season to come.

Apart from that there were several clubs interested in him but leao only wanted to stay with Ac Milan which made other clubs have to bite their fingers. In fact i think Ac Milan will move forward to get another sticker next season to find a proper duel for Leao.
I think it is not up to Milan to make that decision, if the player wants to leave he could insist on being sold to a bigger club and the team has to accept.

If not, and if the team forcefully keeps the player, two things will happen, first of all the player will say he is "injured" a lot more frequently, he could just say his back hurts and you can never find it, there is no medical technology that can deny it, it is just his back hurting, and you have to sit him out of those games, it can be something else I just gave back as an example, secondly the moment his contract is over he will leave for free and you will never earn a dime off him. So, it is better to sell when a player wants to get out, so it is all on Leao to decide if he wants to leave or not.
1172  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Sentiment Poll for May on: May 16, 2023, 08:29:11 PM
I think the market is going to get more wild this month or in other words we can see bigger size sideways market in the coming weeks. On one hand we have the manipulators and the attackers that are directly and indirectly creating chaos in the market. On the other hand we still have the money coming in and buying bitcoin cheap getting ready for the future rallies.
Then on top of all that we have the global economy that is in a chaotic state with the inflation still high and the recession growing at the same time. As I've said many times before, as much as inflation is good for bitcoin price, recession is bad for it.
Yeah, as much as we hate those who try to manipulate or making the state more chaotic with those spam attacks, the best thing to do is just see what the market will offer to us. Right now the fees has settled down and for sure this might be the "new norm", no more 1 sat/vB unless the devs will find a way to keep this whole ordinals inscriptions on top of the bitcoin blockchain.

So let's see, as much as I wanted to be bullish, the market might react negatively and just stay their grounds around $27'ish for this month.
I think it could happen again with some new developments, every new problem comes with a new solution eventually, doesn't mean problem will be solved from the first moment but it is not going to be impossible to solve it neither, we are going to end up with a solution "eventually" and that means we are going to get it back down there. I know that it is not cheap right now and there is no solutions right now but we are going to slowly grow bigger and figure out how we could make this work.

ETH hasn't found a solution to that for many years now, they keep going up and up, so we know it is not an easy solution, it hasn't been found yet, and we need to be patient about it and just try to hope for the best. Maybe it will be found in a year, maybe 5 years, maybe tomorrow, but there is nothing we can do but hope until it is found.
1173  Economy / Speculation / Re: The price of bitcoin is not rising soon!. on: May 16, 2023, 07:16:59 PM
Currently the price is around $27k and it looks difficult to go up any higher, daily volume is also decreasing which is usually more than $30 billion per day now it's only around $12 billion, maybe many investors choose to hold and wait because they see market conditions that are still difficult, The economic recession is also the reason that people are afraid to invest in high-risk types like bitcoin.
I don't know what time frame you would estimate for that, whether 7 days, 14 days, or 30 days. For the weekly TF, I think a small bounce can still be expected to test the $28k resistance, but I'm inclined to assume that May was a sideway month for bitcoin.

Even if my assumption is correct, then I don't think you need to worry more about it. Bitcoin's potential in the long term is still quite worth for you to hope, and you should be aware that the upcoming halving cycle in 2024 will drive more optimism here. Be patient and accumulate, if I can do it while the price is still low then you can too.
I do agree that it will test the 28k resistance again, it is not going to be simple but we had support at the same place and yet it went under, which means that if it can go under that easily then it can go above that easily as well. All we need is to want that to happen and if we can do that then we can make it work and I believe that we are going to end up with a better result.

The market recovering is not that hard, it is not impossible to happen and we just need to focus on what we can do. I know that it is going to end up being something easier to handle but that doesn't mean that we are going to end up with something amazing tomorrow, it is easy to go up, but first we need to see the market go up by people being hyped to buy again, and that part is hard to achieve.

Brazilian star Neymar was present in the gallery to support Messi when he played in the France League after the ban and Luis Suárez was in virtual contact with Neymar. Messi may be going through the most bitter period of his career right now. In this match, when the ball goes to Messi's feet, the Paris fans started chanting various bad slogans about Messi and insulted Messi a lot, that's why Neymar was present in the gallery to give Messi mental support. 
PSG clubs and Paris supporters are fed up with Messi and Neymar, who was once the subject of much discussion and interest in Paris. Perhaps the main demand of the fans is to get Neymar and Messi out of the club as soon as possible.
As far as I know, Neymar and Messi usually sport each other in any teams they play and they have a close relationship with each other, maybe the other reason for Messi to leave PSG is his friend Neymar if Neymar leaves PSG Messi will too, also the fans Messi a lot in every game which can be another reason for him to leave PSG at the end of this season.
I agree, there are a lot of talks about Neymar leaving this summer and going to some other team, Newcastle is getting their money machine ready for him as well and that could very well happen. They spent so much money on him and he didn't play in that many games and kept getting injured and missing games all the time so PSG wants to get rid of him for a good amount of money again. They can't get the record breaking amount again obviously, but they can at least get rid of him for like 100+ million, if that happens that means they can buy another player who would be more often playing and that is better.

A player doesn't need to be better than Neymar to replace him, he just needs to be there, and as long as that happens they will be happy. When that happens, Messi could leave as well, it makes sense.

They were taking the league seriously, but Barcelona were better than them in La Liga this season and that is why they won it, the La Liga is gone now, so Madrid has to try and win the champions league to make it two trophies this season, because they have already won the copa del rey. Many people wrongly say Madrid were not interested in the La Liga, surely they were, they only lost that interest when they found out they cannot win it, and that is what every team does, you go for the trophy that you can win, not the one that is lost.
that's right, I like your thinking because it's true that it doesn't mean giving up the title in La Liga but Real Madrid will take the title from a league that is still quite easy to achieve, such as the UCL and the Copa del Rey, which was achieved by getting a trophy and after this Real Madrid's goal is to win the UCL title. After winning the UCL title, Real Madrid will definitely maintain second place in La Liga and we can see that Real Madrid in La Liga has started to improve its performance with 71 points and Barcelona 85.
maybe if later after the UCL is over and Barcelona suffers a decline in performance I'm sure Real Madrid will be able to catch up with Barcelona points even though the chances are very small but there's nothing wrong with Real Madrid also going after the La Liga title.
Real Madrid got lucky to get the second place back, ATM could have won and kept Real back at third place, this isn't something Real achieved but more like ATM lost and it's their failure that Real will not be third place. However, I agree that after this game, they will focus on the league back because I believe that Real will lose against City, when they do, it means they do not have anything but to be second place to work for.

A season where they are second place at the league, and lost the ucl, and only got the domestic cup is not a good season for Madrid fans, they are too used to winning all the time and they will want some revenge next season and that will be fun to watch, they might be sooooo much better next season when they want to win it all again.

I read in the local media, Liverpool are ready to make final offers for Alexis Mac Allister and Tammy Abraham. They prepared 70 million pounds for Mac Allister. For Tammy they need his manpower because Firmino looks set to leave next season. Gakpo and Nunez have not met Kloop's expectations. Tammy Abraham's price is around the 31 million pound in transfermarket.

Source
Liverpool has linked to several midfielder players this season such as Mason Mount and Mac Allister but until now this still remains rumours and indeed one of Klopp target this summer is new midfielder because some of the players on that position will leave Liverpool at the end of season because of contract expired and Mac Allister could be good deal for Liverpool if the rumour is true because this season is one of the best season for him because with Brighton he can able performing well and with Argentina national team Mac Allister can able to gets world cup trophy and besides that Mac Allister is the player who can be played at different position while in Brighton
I understand that it is not going to be simple to pick a midfield and that is why they are just rumoring right now plus it is not the off season yet so there is no transfers so far, we need to be in the transfer window and only after that is done we are going to end up with something. I know that it is not going to be anytime soon, so we just hearing rumors.

However, considering they spend a good chunk of money at least on one player, that could be for midfield and they can get a great player. Could be mcallister, could be rice, could be mount, it could be basically anyone at midfield. Their defense is good, offense is still "good", even though didn't do as well as pleased, but they really do need a good player for midfield without a doubt, it was always obvious.

Unique best team in terms of what??
The team is still struggling with Europa league and are only not in a good position in La Liga. They drew Juventus at Allianz Stadium and that is undoubtedly a good result but not as good as you speak of it. Devil's is only doing things extraordinary in the Europa League and that is the league I will say they are good at. They even have more Europa League titles than La Liga titles. Sevilla has won 3 matches out of 5 last match result is in the 10th position in la liga standing. In general, there is nothing too special about Sevilla.
I assumed historical when I read that, not in a seasonal aspect but like the name of sevilla will go on even on seasons when they are bad. I wouldn't know though, that is what I understood and I agreed with that point of thinking, it looks like they did something quite amazing with europa so far and if they win it again then they will be historically known as the team that is best at europa, no other team has been as good as them.

I think they are already there, but on a season they are bad at the league and still end up beating so many teams that are considered better than them and still get the title? That would establish them as the eeuropa cup team. Same as Real, they are not good at the league, and yet they are a force at champions league anyway.

AC Milan repeated the mistake when playing with a club they could have beaten. This is no longer the AC Milan fans had hoped for. Ultras gave input to representatives of AC Milan after the match was over, this proves that Ultras Milan expects seriousness from AC Milan to build a strong team. The defeats against Inter Milan and Spezia were enough to make the fans disappointed, because AC Milan is currently trying to catch 4th place so they can play in the UCL next season. I think Ultras also wants AC Milan can make an epic comeback for the 2nd leg.
I have to say there is nothing wrong with this idea or thinking, Milan just can't win, it's becoming obvious that there is something that needs to be changed there and they are not doing it, they are insisting on doing the exact same thing and expecting a different result and as we all know that is called stupidity.

I feel like they need a new manager first, and after that they need someone who can take the lead at the team, there is no player that could be considered "obviously the best", Madrid had Ronaldo, Barcelona had Messi, PSG has Mbappe, city sort of has De Bruyne, every team has that. I wouldn't be able to point out that type of player for Milan, they really need to figure one out quickly, if possible get one at least because leadership matters.

Very ironic that CNN, the same media and news channel that has attacked Donald Trump since the beginning of his political career now has turned into another platform for his word and ideas to spread, the Town Hall organized by CNN featuring Trump was a very weird show of propaganda and hypocrisy. However, there is no doubt in my mind that it has helped Trump to appear more charismatic and strong in a channel which has been against him for so long.

CNN will lose viewers because of this, though. I do not know what they were thinking. They cannot use conventional tools like a  Town Hall with a politician like Trump which is highly unconventional and he goes all in to break the molds.
Town Halls are almost always like that, even Bernie Sanders got a huge standing ovation when he did his, there is really no meaning to that. I am not saying he can't win or won't win or anything like that, I wouldn't know, they wouldn't know neither, they are just trying their best, we really do not have any idea who will win.

However, townhall and this show changed basically nothing for me, it always happens like this and then we end up with basically nothing, so there shouldn't really be anything regarding this at all. I believe that the best thing to do would be having a decent result in the long run and that can only be done with having polls. Polls will tell you give or take how it's going. Don't take it now though, compare it week by week, month by month and see the trajectory, that matters more.

People are underestimating Lakers a lot, we may see them go to finals. Remember the time Lebron lead a series in points, rebounds, assists, steals and blocks all at the same time? I am not saying he will do that, but we all know what he can do if he has to carry and not like he lost a series before, he did, and he may lose this one too, Denver is amazing and all and Jokic is unmatched and can't be guarded but Lakers is Lakers and Lebron is Lebron.

I think if given enough chances then we could end up with a good series. I do not see any clear winner here, I think it will be a close series that may end in 6 or 7 at least. That means even though it might be won by Denver, at least it will be close enough, or maybe Lakers will shock you all and win the series.
