I think if Kylian would really go to Madrid he can only be happy. He will definitely earn a bit more money, he will be playing as the real number one star of Real Madrid, he can wear the n°5 jersey from his idol Zinedine Zidane and certainly play in better national league than the one he was playing right now.
Let's not forget Ligue 1 is considered like a second league in terms of overall teams performance.
So, sorry for the French friends but that is the reality right now.

If I'm not mistaken, the French championship is in the top five championships in strength, but it is in fifth place. This is not a second-rate championship, nor is it an elite one, so Mbappe is undoubtedly making the right choice if he wants to go to Real Madrid. Records made with Real Madrid will look much more significant than records made with PSG.

It was the draw for the group stage of the Champions League.



I think group A and group E are two groups that will probably be very competitive.

What do you think?

It's funny that both moneybags (Manchester City and PSG) fell into the same group. I understand that this is unrealistic, but I will hope that Leipzig and Bruges will leave Group A in the next round. In general, I must note that all groups are rather boring except for group B, almost everywhere it is clear who will take the first two places.

You shouldn't be dramatizing, it was a good fight with a decent ending, without a knockout and total superiority of one boxer. This is clearly not the worst thing that could happen to Pacquiao, now he may well end his career on a high note and everyone will remember him as a great boxer who performed with dignity in every match.
We have seen worst of Pacquiao, getting knock out by Marquez, a decision lost to Bradley, (which is the worst for me), and then the Horn robbery. Yes, I know that it is hard to digest the Ugas lost as Manny is the favorite, but that is sports, so it's really an upset but we have to take it and accept.

Just sad that this will be his last fight, however, let's just remember him for the fights that he gave to us in the last 15-20 years.

As I said, this fight ended without a scandal, without a knockout and without anything to darken the impression of the fight, so this is a good moment for Pacquiao to end his career. As I see, most of Pacquiao's fans have come to terms with the fact that he is old and do not expect some kind of miracle and will treat the end of his career adequately.

I do not see the point of wasting time on podcasts because many doctors believe that game addiction in its effect on the human brain similar to drug use. Few people can cope with gaming addiction because in the specialized centers except for psychological help patients prescribe drugs that help reduce stress during treatment. If you or your relative has problems with gambling addiction, I advise you to seek help from professionals with good experience in this difficult matter.

Perhaps not every case requires such serious intervention, and in the early stages of addiction, a cure is possible thanks to podcasts or special literature. In any case, if a person is interested in this, why not get acquainted with different points of view on this issue? In the end, one does not interfere with the other, and if some methods do not help, then you can try others.
12885  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling on friendly matches on: August 23, 2021, 02:16:23 PM
If you like to bet on favorites, then this is really a problem, but if not, then imagine what opportunities appear in friendly matches - you can bet on the underdog (the odds will be large) and the probability of winning is high, because in friendly matches the result is very random.
This is still gambling after all so there’s no assurance on which team are going to win, so this is more risky compare to the real matches and friendly matches can also be a fixe match so better to be more careful and wise. I’ve seen this one on the Basketball with the team USA on the recent Olympic, they’ve loss 2 friendly matches very surprising and yet they claim the gold on the real matches, for me friend matches are not worth to bet and its no that exciting to watch.

Of course, this is gambling and it is associated with risk. Or did you think there is some way to place a bet and get money without risking it? Betting for friendlies has both pros and cons, that's what I wanted to say. If you are a professional bettor or want to be, then you should see these opportunities and use them.
12886  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling on friendly matches on: August 23, 2021, 01:51:29 PM
I think that friendly matches are not the best game to gamble on. Not all players in both team show their best and dont give themselves for 100% on the field. Some use friendly games just to test their new tactics. Some teams play with their reserve, youth or second squad in such games, because they save team starts for a more serious match. For example, that is why we can see FC Barcelona loosing 1:0 to a local Antarctica football team (that is just an example). It is hard to predict the result in such matches.

If you like to bet on favorites, then this is really a problem, but if not, then imagine what opportunities appear in friendly matches - you can bet on the underdog (the odds will be large) and the probability of winning is high, because in friendly matches the result is very random.

If we are talking about poker and this is a tournament, then we need to play to the end (no other options are provided), if about a regular game, then an increase in my bankroll by 5 times will be enough for me to quit the game. That is, if I increased my bankroll 6 times, then I can continue to play, but if the profit drops to five times, then it's time to finish.
12888  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: {Boxing} Manny Pacquiao vs Yordenis Ugas on: August 23, 2021, 09:28:32 AM
WTF? What actually happened? How did Yordenis Ugás won the fight? This is like the worst thing that can ever happen to Manny Pacquiao. If he had lost to Spence, then it was still OK. But a loss to Ugas? It is really difficult to digest the outcome of this match. I understand that Manny, at 42 years was well past his prime. But we have seen other boxers like Mayweather giving very good performances even in their 40s. Anyway, I am glad about one thing. This time the jury didn't made any mistake. Their scorecard (115-113, 116-112, 116-112) matched with those from third parties like CBS Sports. 

You shouldn't be dramatizing, it was a good fight with a decent ending, without a knockout and total superiority of one boxer.

PSG is already going at 3 for 3 and that is not an easy task to handle, starting with 3 wins is always a sure fire way to show the world that you mean business, Mbappe is not going to put all year and hope to get on another team, everyone talked about how he wanted to leave to go to Madrid and that could still be very well true who knows but that doesn't change the fact that dude plays very well even though he wants to be on another team.

I do not know 100% guaranteed if he wants to leave or not, but at least we all know (at least for now) that he is not going to play with 99%, he is putting 100% on all games and that is the thing that matters the most, if you can get the maximum out of Mbappe for all season you are going to be successful, that kid is something special, probably one of the best we have seen in the world at around that age (maybe except one or two players).

In fact, PSG's start looks very dubious - they conceded 5 goals in three games. This is a record figure for teams that are at the top of the table. If they continue to play in this way, then any serious rival (for example in the Champions League) will bury their ambitions. However, such indicators can most likely be attributed to the start of the season and poor teamwork of the players.
12890  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are NFT games also another way to gamble your money? on: August 23, 2021, 09:13:52 AM
I also invested in an NFT game called MIST, which is an MMORPG game, and I believe it will be successful soon because it is a popular game type. It's also an investment, and I'd like to risk a tiny portion of my funds on it because it's still in development and has the potential to grow in the future. I'm hoping that this game will provide me with a quick return on investment, allowing me to reap the benefits of being an early investor in an NFT game.

Have you participated in ICO? I looked at the distribution of the project tokens here and it does not seem optimistic to me in terms of price growth  https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/mist/ico/ - The overwhelming majority of tokens are controlled by the project team and early investors; this does not cause a desire to invest in the project.
12891  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: August 23, 2021, 09:07:52 AM


Woah Ronaldo and Chiesa in the bench.
Chiesa is not in the best condition he will probably play in the second half.

Ronaldo, will he leave after all?  Huh

Source: https://twitter.com/juventusfc/status/1429468271619760128

Taking into account that this is not the most difficult match (by the 4th minute Juventus is already leading 1-0), the coach will most likely give all the attackers a chance to prove themselves. I think Ronaldo will appear on the field in the second half, most likely instead of Morata. As I understand it, Dybala is seen as his main partner.

On the one hand, it's nice that I was right, on the other hand, the triple substitution that the coach made so easily (as if it was a friendly match) broke the game and Juventus lost two important points in the match with an outsider. It is clear that Juventus should have won in any case, and then a series of accidents happened, but the fact remains - two points are lost.

Почему нет собственно? Новости гляньте из Астралии, Новой Зеландии и Канады - там уже граждан буквально в стойло поставили и ебут в хвост и гриву. В таких условиях можно и валюту в 10-100 раз обесценить и все что угодно. Лично я уже ничему не удивлюсь.
Опять же для понимания силы прогнозов можно ситуацию по Афганистану посмотреть - планировалось что правительство будет сопротивляться талибам много месяцев, а талибы за неделю управились. В общем то что вчера было смелой фантазией сегодня может быть уже рутиной.
P.S. В параболу по-прежнему не верю  Grin

10-100 раз не думаю, Америка не Зимбабве и даже не Австралия, я бы сильно удивился, это был бы эпический слив, беспрецедентный, в США была кратковременная гиперинфляция разве что в гражданскую войну, сейчас ситуация похожа на 70е, но с учетом того что влияние США уже далеко не такое как в 70е, а вера в бакс вообще ниже плинтуса, думаю они срочно будут это чинить.

С чего им чинить то что они осознанно продвигают давным-давно и для них это не является поломкой?



Народ ставят в стойло, вчера в твиттере где-то увидел что за время пандемии средний возраст покупки жилья в США вырос на 8 лет и теперь кажется он составляет 46. Все идет к тому что на пожрать будут давать без проблем - типа БОД, а на какой-либо актив вы никогда не скопите и все будет как на картинке - обчистят до трусов и еще радоваться заставят.

Да, и мечтать что крипта как-то тут кому-то поможет не стоит. По щелчку пальцев все это превращается в пыль.
12893  Local / Майнеры / Re: Не майните в Белоруссии on: August 23, 2021, 08:50:41 AM
mak, я у майнера пару видеокарт покупал.
За 10 минут общения он мне рассказал сколько битков намайнил и как несколько лет свет воровал.
На его трансформатор первым поставили ЖСМ счетчики на все частные дома.
Продавал видеокарты он именно по этой причине, что за свет платить не хочет.
Майнерами никто не занимается, наверно только самыми наглыми, которые воруют много.
Если скажут найти, то таких болтунов прижмут первыми.

Это наверно такой же майнер был как и таксисты которые рассказывают что вообще у них бизнес, а таксуют для души  Grin так что все эти рассказы надо не то что на 2 а на 10 делить. Ну и странно конечно выглядит продажа карт из-за того что бесплатная розетка кончилась - в отличие от асиков как я понимаю майнинг на видеокартах практически всегда хоть минимально но выгоден, учитывая рфские цены на ЭЭ.

Вопрос к знатокам, сть ли смысл брать rx-ы на 4гб? Или идея так себе? Планировал взять штук 12 на год и более.

Я не знаток, но почему такой экзотический выбор? Раз собираетесь 12 штук брать то получается что существующий бюджет позволит взять пару-тройку новых карт более универсальных. Может стоить так поступить? Брать проблемное старье, под узкую нишу на мой взгляд крайне сомнительная идея.
12895  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do poker and sports betting skills correlate? on: August 22, 2021, 05:05:07 PM
I think its just a coincidence and there's no correlation.
Poker and sports betting are two different games with different ways to have a chance to win. Instead of correlation, I'd think these players are just knowledgeable on the games that they're interested in to play. Thats why skills and strategy are always the edge of a gambler to win.

If you had read some of the thread, instead of coming here to say what you think and that's it, you would have realized that there are correlated skills. For example, a mix between intuition and probability calculation, bankroll management and emotion control are common and key in both betting games.

What you have listed is too general skills to claim any correlation based on them. If you follow this logic, then investments, poker, forex, etc. have a high correlation (which is actually not the case). To state the correlation between poker and betting, it is tedious to identify some more specific skills/patterns.

Celtic defeated AZ Alkmaar 2-0 in the first leg. Furuhashi was the player of the match with 1 goal and 1 assist. And Celtic had a much better performance than AZ Alkmaar. In the second leg, I expect a stronger AZ Alkmaar. They are one of the respected teams in the Eredivisie. They should be able to put up a good fight against Celtic in the rematch I believe. But at the end, I expect Celtic to eliminate AZ.

Indeed, bookmakers rate AZ Alkmaar's odds as more preferable in the return game
2,25 - 3,80 - 2,85
But I think this is due to the fact that having received a comfortable advantage in the first game Celtic can afford to play defensively and even lose with a minimum score. But by the way, I won't be surprised if they win the second match too, playing on counterattacks, probably this explains the high odds for a draw.

NFT games can give you big return if you are able to choose between the good and the bad. Because of the recent trend of NFT games, there are many fake games in the market which are made to get money from you and have no future. You should not invest in these types of games and only look to invest in games which are legit and have good feedback from the players.

Good advice! Like selling on highs, buy on low  Wink In fact, it is quite difficult to understand which project is serious and will arouse public interest and which is a dummy, especially at an early stage. And after it is already clear that the project is working and it is promising, it is too late to make investments, since the prices are already high. By the way, maybe you can advise projects that would be worth paying attention to?
12899  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: August 22, 2021, 03:11:33 PM
Monaco are still maintaining their really bad streak in the league. After Lorient, this time they lost to Lens 0-2 home. They just don't have really good performance against their opponents. They are having big problems on scoring and they are really weak in terms of defending. And still, they can't do anything about it to eradicate this big problem. They have a tough season which is waiting for them.

Monaco will play the next match against Troyes, which, after three played rounds, also has only one point. I think that if Monaco cannot make it to the main stage of the Champions League and additionally cannot defeat this opponent, then most likely the management will think about the resignation of the coach.
12900  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Do any casinos offer cryptocurrency staking? on: August 22, 2021, 03:05:54 PM
Do you guys really trust Freebitco.in? What if they run away with all these coins? I don't understand how their business can be viable. With fiat currencies, it is possible to get an interest, because they are not protected against inflation. The purchasing power goes down every year, and the interest payment is like a compensation for this decrease in purchasing power. But this logic is not applicable for cryptocurrencies that are protected against inflation. So how can they pay this 4% interest and still return a profit? I understand that Freebitco.in has remained in business for so many years.. but what is the guarantee that they are not just another Ponzi?

They earn on the fact that having cryptocurrency in their account, they can allow increasing the maximum bets in games. Taking into account the fact that the casino always wins at a distance, this guarantees an increased profit and allows them to pay a percentage to those who are ready to place their cryptocurrency with them.
