Good day crypto Famz, I will like to ask gamblers this question, is there any gamblers on here that keeps record of their wins and losses? Do you keep a record of all the pennies you use to gamble and also the result?
Someone whom we both have this discuss yesterday said this is a good practice, I still don't see a reason why because I don't keep record of my losses, I tend to only remember when I win a certain amount, if its good enough you won't easily forget, but apart from this I don't care.
So Famz, is there any benefits when one keeps record on their losses and wins? Is there any thing to gain when you write down all the money you spent in gambling and also how much you have made so far?
Not keeping records, does this make me a bad gambler?
For me I don't necessarily keep the records by writing it down but I just have it on my head. There are some clubs or team that I mostly keep their records because it helps me to predict very well, I know the position to place my bet when it comes to that team, if I can give them winning or a draw. Keeping records helps you not to repeat a mistake you've once had, In as much as I keep a good record of my win, I do so as well for my losses. Record keeping makes you a professional gambler, it helps you to understand the intricacies of everything team you want to place your stake on. |

Greetings my follow Nigeria (Naija) bitcoiners, i will like to celebrate everyone in this house for the good work we are doing in this Nigeria (Naija) local board, and there is an improvement in the area of quality post that made Nigeria local board to be part among the best local board in the Bitcointalk forum. The reason why I created this topic is to remind whoever that is in charge to allow Nigeria (Naija) local board to have moderator in the local board, I believe we are due for it and we have what it takes to have moderator so that we can begin to enjoy the respect and value all those local board that has moderators are enjoying in the Bitcointalk forum. If you check round other local board you will no that our facilitators in the Nigeria local board are doing a great job to impacted users about BTC that will generate potential bitcoiners in the future. Do we really need a moderator in this Nigeria local board? Or we don't have the requirements that qualify us to have moderator in the Nigeria local board forum? What is your opinion.
I've thought about this thing sometime ago, because initially I thought the moderator for our local board, was from naija, not until lately before I was aware that no, no be naija person oh. Of course we have eminently qualified persons to man the job of moderator in over local board, Omo no think am oh, men dey oh. Na something way we gats Push going forward, to fit see how it will come into fruition. Because we really need person way go understand the intricacies, the semantics of the Nigerian society, to be able to moderate it properly. |

The NYSC scheme has been in existence for years in Nigeria. And has really groomed quite a number the Nigerian youth making them to really discover the essence of service to humanity
Personally I think the scheme in it's goal have been able to unite people of different ethnicity and believe system and in a little way it has kept peace amongst people of different backgrounds and religions.
My concern has been drawn lately to what could b the economic importance or benefits of the NYSC sheme to the economy of our dear country Nigeria .
The federal government though have treatend several times to scrab the scheme have not been able to do so my question is if the scheme is scrabed, is there any part of the economy that will collapse or suffer, brings me to think what the reason is why the federal government have not been able to scrab the scheme .
Mind you am not of the oppinion that the scheme be scrabed but am only concerned about what benefits has it been to the country's economy
NYSC scheme was brought up by General Gowon after the civil war to inculcate the spirit of unity amongst the youth of Nigeria because after the civil war, most persons from the South where not going to the North and most Northerners you're not coming to the South, so the scheme was to imbibe the spirit of unity via diversity. it was necessary at that time because most southerners use the opportunity to go to North especially within the youth, and North to use the opportunity to come to the South. so the major aim of the scheme was to build the spirit of oneness. To large extent, the scheme has recorded success over the years. Just that recent times, government policies haven't been too favourable with scheme, because they just post corper's to go and teach even when they are not trained teachers, some they post them to places that are not befitting for graduates. |

I met a friend who used about $1 to play gamble to win about $2500 in a game of different matches, all the early games went well but the last game cut which made him loose the game. This lose made him to be sick for 3 days, the reason for his reaction was not because of the money he used to bet but he felt so bad because he has already put all his hope on the money he would have won.
People needs not to put all their hope in games they are not sure of winning, because relying on it can be very dangerous to the mental health. Play gamble and remove your mind from the money that will be gained till it is achieved.
In my early days in gambling, I use to have this kind of feeling, where after placing my bet, my mind will always be on the game, I will be refreshing my bet app and keeping in touch with the game so to see if there are losses, that stuff use to destroy my mental health, because I will be so focused on it. But with time, I started growing stronger, hence I will place a bet and look at it when the entire game is over, even after my loss, It won't get to me too much, because it's a normal thing now. Gambling should be for the matured minds, you don't need to put all your hope a game you played, knowing fully well that it can go sideways, that's dangerous for your mental health. Using $1 to win $2500, that's a huge🤗 expectation, have you also wondered what might be going through the betting company's mind if you had won that money too, going by that mindset, the betting company should be seriously going through depression. |

As the gambling industry is evolving, I think innovations would have kicked in that can make someone create a career from gambling. I do not know how this can be achieved but I feel it is possible.
Making gambling a full time job might be seen as risky but I still feel one can make gambling full time job and a career.
What do you all think?
Making gambling your full-time job is something that I see that is very impossible, gambling is a game, it is seen as a hobby, something you do for leisure is not something you can fully dependent on, because at every point in time you are not sure of your income so you cannot say that gambling is my career, of course we have people that have succeeded in gambling by winning big, we have people that have made a living through gambling by also Winning big, but depending on it as your major source of income is something that might be very difficult for anybody. I've gambled a lot of times, the number of times I've lost cannot be compare the to my win. But I try as much as possible to balance both so I won't be on the losing side. |

Manchester City without Kelvin De Bruyne and Rodri is an overhyped team. The absence of both players have had a negative impact on the team’s performance in the last three games including defeat to Arsenal this weekend which is the most recent lose they have conceded. Gabriel Martinelli’s goal was enough to give Arsenal a win. Arsenal will treasure this win, the team have worked hard to come this far, good work to Mikel Arteta, trusting the process is finally paying off.
Arteta is showing better management at Arsenal than last year. Manchester City could not achieve last year's dominance this year. From what I have observed, with the departure of İlkay Gündoğan, they are not as effective in the midfield as before, and when Kevin De Bruyne gets injured, the dynamics of the team are disrupted. They had problems in the last two matches. Arsenal are in a better situation now and they got a morale boost with the win over City. Manchester City still have the firepower even against Arsenal they displayed a lot of it. Arsenal where more defensive and containing the city side, while city where more aggressive in the attack. Of course I will give it to arteta for his brilliant performance, at least it was much better than last season. Also for city side, these guys have been on the winning side week in week out, i believe most of their players might as well suffer from fatigue, and it's natural in football because if Kevin De Bruyne had been on that midfield, trust me we will be having a different conversation here, because Arsenal where really on the lucky side of that game. |

Hodling and trading has always been a debate in the Bitcoin crypto space.Are they different? Of course yes.Hodling is a term used to describe owning Bitcoin in a wallet especially for a long period of time.While trading on the other hand refers to the selling and buying of Bitcoin through an exchange.
Both Hodling and trading have some similarities such as ;
1. The use of wallets to store Bitcoin.
2. For both trading or hodling to be possible you must own Bitcoin. Although trading requires a minimum amount of coins, hodling does not.
3. Both require you to understand how to secure your coins to avoid hacks or loss of funds.
Nevertheless, despite these similarities hodling and trading are also distinct this is due to the fact that hodling is usually long termed ( hodling appreciates better during long term.) however trading returns come from short term fluctuations in the price of Bitcoin.Due to the uniqueness of Bitcoin,some persons tend to choose hodling over trading due to some advantages such as;
1. Ease ; hodling Bitcoin saves you the stress of understanding marketing strategies and little price fluctuations As you only store the Bitcoin in your wallet without transacting.(successful trading requires constant research and experience)
2. Transaction Costs ; Hodling comes with a lower transaction cost which is from depositing the Bitcoin in your wallet. However trading incures cost due to frequent transactions especially when the network is congested.
3. Long-Term Gains ;Over time Bitcoin has shown promising potential in it's price.Hodling helps you benefit from the long term potential of Which in most cases appreciates better than little price gains from trading.
4. Security; Hodling your Bitcoin gives you a better option of making use of offline wallets such as air gapped wallets or hardware wallets,As they deem more secure than online wallets
With all these being said it is important to note that hodling shitcoin is not advisable due to their exponentially high volatility which may lead to severe loss if not properly managed.
Trading and hodling is always a choice as they indirectly serve as balance to the Bitcoin ecosystem.
Don't forget to keep your keys safe 😁
As a bitcoin enthusiast, I will go for Holding, because I'm less experienced when it comes to trading. before you start trading you must understand the market forces, you must also understand the fact that the market is very volatile and for somebody that is not well groomed or that doesn't really have a good experience in trading, he/she will find difficulty in navigating through the crypto market, especially for a beginner. Though there are lots benefits with trading, especially when you've gathered a good knowledge about the market, and you know how to control your losses, there are good number of people that will tell you, they prefer trading than Holding. Both of them have their advantages depending on which Side of the divide you find yourself. |

My country people I dy greet oo,
Good evening inside this evening,
I want tlk about one serious issue wey dy bring us backward for our country wey be na my brother na my brother, oyibo man call am tribalism.
True true for this country we dy go back because we we know people we dy capable to do most of the jobs for we country, but base on say him no from my place, we no go give am the job, we go come give less qualify person we go do nonsense wrk, or person wey no know anything about the job base on say na ur brother.
Am
Make we take our presidency as example now, during election time in 2015, we know say buhari na less qualify candidate, but because we dy do brother brother, we vote am in, him come later dy show us shege.
Early this year, we know say jagabam na less qualify candidate due to health reason and intellectual capacity, but because of tribalism, na south South turn, we still put am for power, now him dy show us snr level of shege.
All this na north turn, na South turn, e don tire me, we sopos dy more concern about who go fit do the work well, no be brother brother tins.
After all this man no man tins, wen tins do go ugly, we go start to dy cry as if to say we do the right thing we go cry.
My country people how ona see this wahala we dy inside so?
The thing is that our country was not built on true federalism, where people will want to stand for the country where there is no tribalism, where there is no ethnicity, where there is no biasness. the state of America gives their citizens that orientation about the fact that as an American citizen, your an American anywhere you find yourself wether it is Colorado, wether is Alaska, wether is las Vegas just name it, an American citizen identifies himself from anywhere as America. but for Nigeria the case is different, because we don't have that sense of nationhood. it is not imbibe in us, we can only have that kind of system if you have true federalism where will begin to remove state of origin, local government of origin. you can mostly have place of birth, place of residence state of residence and these are some of the things you need to build a true federal state. |

My Elders, uncle, brothers and sister I greet oh. I no sabi too much and this period i come dey think in the midst of wetin dey happen for Naija wetin I go learn from Tinubu. No vex, I know say somebody fit learn from bad and good. I don put few observation I make below i go like make una advice me and talk una own opinion as concern this topic.
Influnce- Tinubu get too much influence. I fit develop imy influence to a reasonable level wey my influence go dey work for me.
Craftiness- Tinubu have ability to turn and underturn tables before you realize. Is craftiness a tool I need to get for Naija?
Money- Jagaban hold money them dey call am Bullion Van but Me I no know how e get the money.
Inconsistent Data Record- So many contradiction on date of birth, age, family history etc. Me I go say e good make person get straight data record.
Jagaban get boys for street i.e Men mount oooh. E good make person get that kind structure.
This na few things. Abeg make you put mounth
People like jagaban, will always succeed in a place like Nigeria na. Don't you see how exposed he was in U.S when he was doing those alleged drug business. If we continue to as a people to have a structure of people like Jagaban and Buhari, just forget about things coming to normalcy in Nigeria. The influence your talking about, is not influence of Ideas and technical know-how to improve the lots of Nigerians, but that of hunger, as he seems like their source of income. In today's world, Idea rules the world, I don't see Jagaban possessing any ideas or what so ever to turn around things. |

Arsenal Vs Manchester city
Saka not involved in this game for the first half, is something I'm surprised on the Arsenal Side.
White has so far shown a great level of experience in the first 15 minutes for Arsenal.
But Manchester city are still showing that they are the real guy's with the Arsenal's to attack, because the whole of the midfield has been manned by City players, the pressure on arsenal is so intense as Raya almost caused a goal. Arsenal players are really finding it difficult to break the midfield and give passes across.

- Liverpool comeback this first is very impressive, though they have much fire power than Brighton so we are expecting more effort from them. Mo Sallah has shown that he shouldn't be ignored on the defence line of any opponent. That player that committed that penalty, is lucky for not getting a yellow card or even a red card for bringing somebody down on the 18 yard box. Most referee's won't hesitate to flash him a red or yellow. Liverpool played better after conceding and it was a good response when they went behind. Salah scored two goals to put Liverpool ahead, but this second half will certainly be crucial for them. Liverpool should be wary of Brighton's comeback at home even though they are still leading 1-2, this is not a safe position to win in my opinion. There is still a lot of time for both teams to use to score goals and I don't think Liverpool is safe at all right now. Brighton really tried to score in the second half, but Liverpool's defense has been quite good so far. Seems like what you predicted is coming into fruition, as Brighton has just equalised Liverpool from a set piece. Going by the time remaining, I don't think Liverpool can do much, because Brighton are really fighting them back with even opportunities to score more goals against the big Boys. Pedro just missed a one on one given to him by Adingra in making it 3-2 in favour of Brighton. |

West Ham United and Newcastle United is currently at 1:0 with 75% possession by Newcastle but West Ham United seem more calculated than Newcastle United but there strength and performance is both impressive but the chances of Newcastle United equalizing the goal is very small because in as much as they have the highest possession but there play is just within the midfield which will make there chances of score very low but let's see how there performance will look like when they are back from the halftime but however if Newcastle United uses the same tactics on there second half they may likely score more goals.
The combination of Almiron and Alexander Isak on the attacking side of Newcastle United is becoming the new normal for Newcastle. Isak is so brilliant in his finishing, scoring two goals in less than five minutes. There might be more goals coming for Newcastle, because even while they where losing 1-0, they where still in control of the game. Newcastle is now playing like a team in the champions League 😁 |

Brighton vs Liverpool is currently 1-0 thanks to Simon quality goal in the 20th minute. But don't be happy yet, I am still optimistic that Liverpool can turn things around in this first half. The time is still quite long and from statistics it can still be controlled. A front line with this composition means Moh Salah and Nunez will try to open gaps in Brighton defense.
M. Saleh have delivered for Luverpool as usual, making is 1-1. Now Liverpool just got awarded a penalty. I feel fatigue has gripped Brighton and that may cost them the match. They had a pretty good start anyways. There is high chance Liverpool is taking the three away points because Saleh will score. Liverpool comeback this first is very impressive, though they have much fire power than Brighton so we are expecting more effort from them. Mo Sallah has shown that he shouldn't be ignored on the defence line of any opponent. That player that committed that penalty, is lucky for not getting a yellow card or even a red card for bringing somebody down on the 18 yard box. Most referee's won't hesitate to flash him a red or yellow. |

On the other hand, Newcastle also experienced a bit of carelessness until West Ham took advantage of the opportunity to score a goal. The same thing with Liverpool, I believe Newcastle can definitely turn things around.
Van Dijk pass was too sloppy, Adingra measured the distance the goal keeper has covered and he had to bend the ball accordingly to score that goal, though I blame Van Dijk for that. Brighton has been playing with confidence so far, gross almost saw the back of the net again for Brighton. Brighton forwarders are doing a good job on the attack of Liverpool, because I see they pose more threat on the attack than Liverpool, Mo Sallah still hasn't shown much impact on the defence line of Brighton this first half. |

In few hours time, Manchester United will be playing against Brentford. And we all know that Brentford is not a team that should be underrated and they are sometimes unpredictable. Brentford can play with small teams and lose the match. That same Brentford will play with big teams like Manchester City and Liverpool (I don't know where Chelsea belongs to now) and defeat them.
Manchester United is seriously having issues with their form. They have been struggling to win matches in the Champions League and even in the Premier League. I am not optimistic that Manchester United will perform positive wonders. Rather, they might likely lose again to Brentford.
Manchester United need to go back to their root and sort out the cause of their obvious losses because it is quite unfortunate for a once glorified team like Manchester United to struggle in almost all their matches.
They shaped perfectly just as inhad it up in my head but I still don't know what's wrong with Manchester United. Brentford haven't had tok many chances but the one they had they made good use of the chance to score. Erik Ten Hag should make the hard change, Man United have no good defense we know, but Onana as the last hope can't save balls that are without power. He should be dropped. Tottenham Hotspur missed chances during the first half and with Yves Bissouma booked ( Red carded. ) It was difficult for me to believe they would turn the game into a win. Pros to James Madison, he had a great game and was responsible for the assist. Manchester United is playing against Brentford. 80 minutes have already been played in this match. And I don't know if this was unexpected or not, but anyway, Manchester United is behind in this match. Brentford has scored one goal so far. And that has been the only goal scored in this match. The goal was also scored in the 26th minute of the match. Manchester United has been trying to score, but the efforts from them really does not look convincing enough. I am not going to be surprised if they lose this match. Brentford is trying to defend. Let’s see if they can keep a clean sheet till the end of the match. Manchester United cannot contain their joy, that was a brilliant assist my Maguire to mctominay to seal the winning, this is the comeback Manchester United where known for during the time of sir Alex Ferguson. Mctominay really made a show of this match, I haven't seen such intensity, pressure and lastly a win at the end. United needs to really improve on their finishing, what if Brentford maintained their resistance till the end, the game would have been a different story. |

Raheem Sterling has win a penalty for the blues on the third minutes of the second half. Sterling has been very active since the beginning of this season. Palmer has scored an excellent goal as this is the first premier league goal and his first goal for Chelsea. What a wonderful moment for Chelsea as they came from one goal down to take the lead. Chelsea is putting in a lot of performance this second half and there is no doubt that the blues has secured all three points against Burnley.
Burnley 1-2 Chelsea. In other matches, Manchester United still had difficulty getting the first goal. Brentford played very well in defense and also in the build-up, but they also couldn't double their lead. If Manchester United loses again, then I don't know what Ten Hag should do because it seems like bad days accompany him every game. Removing rashford wasn't something I saw coming from Manchester United, ten hag would have played rashford along with martial at the same time, because there combination most times makes a difference. Brentford might just absorb the pressure from Manchester United till the end the game, because outside the 1 goal, they haven't shown much uniqueness in their midfield and defence. Manchester United on the other hand are seriously wasting away their chances to score, they've really gotten more than enough opportunities to score but yet, it has been a hard luck for them. Bruno'l Fernandez is making a very good shot on target. Time is really running against United. |

Burnley 1-2 Chelsea.
That VAR decision was a wrong one, because sterling was brought don't just at the line but he fell into the 18 yard box making look like a penalty. Surprising Chelsea are back in dominating this game, if care is not taking, Chelsea might score more goals. Burnley have lost their grip on the game, it's as if they where demoralized by the second goal. |

Manchester United has been very disappointing this season. Even though I personally hope that Man United can at least compete at the top level this season. after seeing them successfully end last season in 3rd place. But it seems that the good performance they had last season cannot be maintained until the current season. But at least Manchester United is still much better than Chelsea this season. Manchester United doesn't have a goal keeper, that goal Brentford just scored was totally the fault of onana, Degea wasn't this bad, I feel Manchester United made the wrong choice in choosing onana. There has been several attempts by United to score, but they haven't been that lucky, rashford has been doing a good job in trying to make United level up with the game this first half. I think United has a finishing problem at the front. |

By looking at the results of the previous 2 matches, it is clear that this must be a victory for Chelsea, especially this can also be a very good capital before facing tough matches in the next few weeks because if you look at Chelsea's schedule in the next few weeks there are tough matches considering Arsenal, City, Tottenham and even Newcastle are ready against them.
Even though Burnley played home in this match but Chelsea have good capital and high confidence so it will be very good if they can get 3 points in this match.
I really hope that Chelsea can win this match because Burnley is a club that is a little weak in the premier league and even though Chelsea is playing away from home, I really believe that they can at least win even though they have to work hard to get this win to add 3 and secure their position. Because as you said, after fighting Burnley, Chelsea will compete against a big club in the Premier League so it will most likely be difficult to win, so before you lose against a big club you can at least take 3 points from Burnley. I also hope that even though against a big club Pochettino has to show that he can provide a good defensive strategy for Chelsea so that it doesn't end in defeat or at least it can end in a draw, it would be better for me to get 1 point. The Vincent kompany side has been able to find the back of the net 🥅 in just 15 minutes of play. The Chelsea defence didn't just see that coming because at the goal mouth odobert was not marked, he was alone with nobody with him so it was easy for the ball passed from foster to get to him. At the beginning of the game, Chelsea had some pressure, it's as if Burnley has been able to contain that pressure based on the goal they scored. |
