Girona winning in the first half at Barcelona,now this is not to be considered a surprise result as Girona is leading the standings and most likely they will have a high chance to win the La Liga this year if they manage to win the game of tonight.What bookies think is never the right thing and most of times like I have said thousand of times they use the odds to deceive us,by giving a low odd of 1.50 to Barcelona many people fell into this trap by the bookies,I personally also did bet on Barcelona though only a little amount as I knew it won't be easy for them and things are showing just that right now,there is still the second half and let's see how it ends.

Everton won against Chelsea today defying many odds and continuing the thing from the yesterday games,making quite some surprise results for the Premier League during this weekend.Barcelona of course in theory should win but anything can happen as Girona is not there by chance,many weeks have passed and they are the leaders of La Liga so the game isn't going to be as easy as the bookies predict.In most of the time bookies try to deceive us with their odds,out of 100 odds 70 are to deceive us and only 30 come as predicted,the people who know how to read odds are some what successful in sport betting.
1303  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: With gambling, it's probably easier to quit cold turkey on: December 10, 2023, 07:46:42 PM
If someone is a problem gambler and has repeatedly relapsed to problematic behavior related to gambling, I have come to the conclusion that it's best to quit cold turkey.

With other things it can sometimes be recommended that the addict slowly winds down their consumption of the addictive activity or substance, but that doesn't sound very realistic with gambling, does it?

Quitting cold turkey, contemplating on your mistakes and talking about it with a group and some experts sounds like the best path. What are your thoughts? Could a problem gambler quit slowly and expect realistic improvements?

In theory you are right and this is supposed to work also for gamblers.Good luck though in real life for gamblers trying to quit,unless they have a very strong will as the first step of starting to acknowledge that he wants to get recovered from such illness.The gambling addiction is called an illness and the first step to come up free of it is to acknowledge you have a problem,the second step is to apply all the necessary steps and medicines needed to overcome such illness,of course slowing down is only one of the many medicines needed to cure this illness.

It looks like also Tottenham is returning to winning ways and against Newcastle after losing some games in a row.I think this was to be expected of Newcastle who most probably is prioritizing the Champions League game on this upcoming last match day there as they need absolutely to win their game in order to have chances to progress further in the Champions League.They are playing against Milan while Tottenham is completely focused to get the three points from this game and this means that they are leading 2-0 and I don't expect the result to change much in this game because of Newcastle focus elsewhere.
1305  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: December 10, 2023, 05:29:30 PM
Leverkussen was again not convincing in the game of tonight too.They barely managed to draw against Stuttgart and that says a lot about them,comparing to Bayern Munchen they got 1 point yet they need to step up their game a lot if they are serious about the title fight.In fact if they get to play like this it would be an unfortunate event for the Bundesliga as they are the only contender that can match Bayern Munchen performance this year,all other teams leave a lot to be desired and if Leverkussen gets out of Bayern way it will become a very boring Bundesliga this season.

The only thing remaining to see if Bayern underestimated the game against Frankfurt to win the game of Manchester United in the Champions League.
1306  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you regret also for ever knowing about gambling? on: December 10, 2023, 05:11:59 PM
I don't regret it as I never felt bad gambling except the few times that I overdid it.I know it is my responsibility to behave correctly,to know when to quit and not go deep down to lose money I cannot afford to lose as that would only bring negative consequences.Based on this I think that it depends on people character,the ones with a weak one most probably regret it a lot while the people with strong character are the ones who don't care what happens to them as they are strong enough to overcome any situation no matter how bad it can be.
1307  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: December 10, 2023, 02:27:17 PM
-----
Due to Inter winning today's match, Juventus once again passed and went to the top number 1 position in the points table.  I have a lot of support for Juventus and I think they will go back to the number 1 position in the next match.  My favorite team is Juventus because I like their style of play.  I think Juventus are very likely to win the Italian league this year.  Milan is the capital of Italy and their team has been able to manage very well but this time they are far behind Juventus and Inter.
Juventus has now gone ten games without a loss, with 2 draws and 8 victories. These results are impressive, and it reflects positively on how the team is performing both on and off the pitch. When I see such a good record, I become quite optimistic. While the results are fantastic, I'd love to see them go on the attack against teams more. It's a brilliant effort by Juventus, and I hope it continues, leading them to win the Italian league!
Juventus must become a more aggressive team, not just rely on a 1-0 score to secure 3 points. For this year, Juventus have gone through all their difficult matches because the remaining three matches this year are against Genoa, Frosinone and AS Roma, it seems that they can overcome the three teams well, especially against Roma if they can't get 3 points but are quite confident they can get 1 point because Juventus is quite strong in every home match, but the leader of the standings will still belong to Inter Milan until the end of this year because they have not shown a decline in performance and can still cope well with each of their opponents.

I think it is in the winning mentality of Juventus that they have and they will continue to win games with such mentality,they don't care much of scoring many goals as their main concern is getting the three points,they have come with a super consistency up until here where they are now and they are a team that Inter should be very careful and should continue winning games.They showed the force yesterday by scoring 4 goals to a team like Udinese which is a team that most of the big teams in Italy have difficulties to score goals against them and this for me is a strong signal that Inter is the strongest contender to the title this year.

I have placed a bet for Barcelona but I am not that much convinced that they are going to have an easy win as the odd 1.50 is not telling us the truth as most probably Barcelona will have a hard time winning this game.I think gone is the time when Girona lost 0-2 to Real Madrid when playing at home and they are fighting hard to win the La Liga this year so most likely they are going to give Barcelona a really hard time tonight.The most normal odd I would think for this game for Barcelona would be like 1.75-1.80 as this would mirror the truth in this game,one thing is sure,if Girona loses this game they are going to have a hard time recovering.
1309  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who should quit, and why? on: December 10, 2023, 01:40:10 PM
Hey house someone need a few clips here, don't know if a post of this exact nature has been discussed though.

In a situation where the both spouse are gamblers. Husband gambles, wife gambles, how can both of them manage the situation in terms of finance and the family affairs especially when children are now involve so that the time both spends on gambling doesn't affect family moments and affairs in general.

Would it help if  one of the couple quit for the other and if that's the case who should quit for who.

Both should quit.I remember when I used to go to offline casinos in 2007-2008 and it was an affiliate or at least it claimed it was an affiliate of Caesar Palace.I used to go there because I loved the slots there and I found there a couple used to come there,they were "rom people" no offense to any gender or race as I respect everybody in a equal way.I mentioned that to show you that they were not rich persons and as soon as they got their salary they stayed in the casino 2-3 days often times losing it all and living with help from the state then so based on this story it is a great thing if both spouse would quit gambling and to continue to run their family in a normal way,not asking for help here and there as this is what gambling brings you into.

The only team from the favorites who won today and even Liverpool had a lot of difficulties before Crystal Palace got the red card but what is important is that they are leading alone the standings and they don't care much about Manchester City or Arsenal right now,as they have lost both against Aston Villa in these last couple of days.

In the points I am wondering who made enough points in the pool during this round so far would be doing great and climbing positions like crazy as I assume most people have gone for the obvious.

I think it all evens out. Spurs won 3 points from Liverpool when they shouldn't have had anything, now Liverpool geting points by playing not at their best, and City losing points all over the place to injuries and suspensions but you don't feel srry for them because their B squad is greater than half the teams

Unai Emery is Manager of the Month, regardless what happens after this for sure.

Of course he is going to be the best manager of the month as his team beat both Arsenal and Manchester City within the same week.That is something not many teams can be doing or have the possibilities to do so,I personally never thought Aston Villa to be winning both games and with the same result it shows the consistency and now they are contenders of the title without a doubt.We cannot call them as a surprise team while they keep winning against stronger teams in the Premier League as in this league all teams are strong nevertheless.
1311  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Has anyone here started with a decent bankroll in sports? on: December 10, 2023, 12:58:52 PM
I'm curious and would like to ask gamblers who have established a decent bankroll and bet only a certain percentage on their wagers: How has it been going for you? Are you currently in profit, or not yet?

Let's consider a scenario where you have a total bankroll of $2,000 dedicated to a specific league.

If you are in profit and your win rate is 60%, how much have you made (net profit) so far?

With those stats you should barely be in profit or breaking even most of the time.In order to have consistent profit it is not needed to have a bankroll,a big bankroll but what is needed is more the win rate,the win rate should be a consistent one to 75-80% in order to continue to be in profit by playing sport betting.

I personally use 100 dollars but I use IDR as currency and that is about 1.500.000 IDR or more to bet on,my win rate is good well over 60% as I follow a lot of prediction pages and go for safe bets most of the time,yet I lose everything I win in slots and as long as I continue playing slots it is a dead end for me.

What a wonderful day of football results in the PL  Cool
The only way it could any better would be if Luton take something against Man City tomorrow but that’s very unlikely.

Back to back home games for Liverpool now in the PL against Man Utd and Arsenal. Will be tough but at Anfield not many teams get anything. Klopp 2.0 is cooking.

The only team from the favorites who won today and even Liverpool had a lot of difficulties before Crystal Palace got the red card but what is important is that they are leading alone the standings and they don't care much about Manchester City or Arsenal right now,as they have lost both against Aston Villa in these last couple of days.

So even Arsenal lost point to Villa letting Liverpool being alone and one of the favored teams to win the Premier League this season as they are the most stable team so far based on the results they have gotten so far as they have only lost to Tottenham while all other teams have lost points in more than one game and this year the Premier League is strong.Even Aston Villa with the 2 victories in these last 2 games against table leaders like City and Arsenal have come really close to fighting for the title,we have passed a good chunk of this season and for me Villa is not a surprise anymore.
1314  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: December 09, 2023, 07:55:14 PM
Bayern Munchen screw it up in the worse possible way tonight during that lost,humiliating lost game against Eintracht Frankfurt where they conceded 5 goals and I needed to go back a long chunk in time to find such goals conceded again.Well we all know that even big teams have their problems at some game so nothing you could do about it and this day it took Bayern to concede so many goals.For the title fight they gave Leverkussen which has a difficult game tomorrow space so that if they win they get to the top again.

Dortmund I felt sorry for them as most probably without the red card there was no way Leipzig would have won this game.
1315  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: December 09, 2023, 07:34:28 PM
2-1 for Atalanta and 30 minutes to go.

It will be terrible if they lose for they odds to the Scudetto.

Milan I think is out of the way now for the Scudetto and Inter has a relatively easy game tonight which they should win at all cost since Juventus has won their game and as such they need to absolutely win in order to be ready to go and fight for the title.Milan I think this was their last chance as coming back will be very difficult for them now and if they get another blow in the Champions League it will only add to their bad performance in the coming games of the Serie A.

I think that for this year the real fight is between Juventus and Inter and I would also not exclude some other teams but these two will fight the hardest.
1316  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: December 09, 2023, 06:47:56 PM
I know one thing for sure now after seeing what Manchester United did in tonight game losing 0-3 at home against a team which sits barely the relegation zone in their domestic league,and that is they have absolutely 0 chances of winning against Bayern Munchen who from their side played a horrible match also as they also lost 5-1 to Franfurt in their local league yet the fact that Manchester United showed that horrific performance tonight together with their goalkeeper who absolutely had a big chunk of the fault in this lost game will most probably stand no chance for a win during the last game on the last match day.
1317  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season on: December 09, 2023, 06:20:51 PM
By the way, PSG still has a good chance of getting into the Europa League - it will be difficult to win against Dortmund away, and Newcastle will most likely be able to beat Milan at home.

Newcastle still has the opportunity to qualify with Dortmund, but if PSG loses to Dortmund, the Dortmund and PSG match is a life and death match for PSG because they could have been eliminated from the Campion League if they suffered defeat to Dortmund, and Newcastle will go up to second place if Able to win over AC Milan, to be honest, Grub F is fairly Grub Hell where the strongest club from each league is in Grub F, so do not be surprised if Grub F is truly very difficult to predict who will qualify for the Grub phase or actually thrown into the league Europa ..

PSG, even in the event of a draw with Dortmund and a parallel victory for Newcastle, will be eliminated from the Champions League. The problem for PSG is that in this option the clubs will have 8 points each and head-to-head matches are clearly in favor of Newcastle (win and draw). Therefore, PSG has a really difficult task - to win against Dortmund away, the only thing that should please them is that Dortmund has already qualified.

I think PSG has all the possibilities to win the game and not to come here in Europa League but to continue in the Champions League.I saw them how they dominated the Newcastle game and they have no problems dominating against Dortmund also.In the remote case PSG comes to Europa League this would be a great improvement for the Europa League as it will add another team of the Champions League level that will come here to contend in this league.We are now in the last round of the Champions League so whoever team comes here it will only increase the performance of this competition.

I think the games of today in Premier League tells you exactly why no one can ever be a millionaire with sport betting,all the favorites or better except Liverpool all the favorites lost or did not win their games today,imagine if you were a millionaire sport bettor and if you did bet on today games you would go directly from a millionaire to a homeless with the results of today games in the Premier League.

Of course if you are patient enough,do not rush and do not play bigger leagues you may have very slim chances but overall it is almost impossible to become a millionaire with sport betting.
1319  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: December 09, 2023, 05:30:03 PM
The match has ended the way I predicted it to be although I no that with the performance of Liverpool in there first half without a goal will surely make them to change some strategies in other for them to win crystal palace which they exactly did the way I expected, but although I never knew the goals will be this much because considering how they were battling on the first half without any goal I was just thinking the overall goals will just be maybe 1 goal against crystal palace but it was quite the opposite that they had to win crystal palace 2-1. well congratulations to the Liverpool on there victory well deserved.
Crystal Palace failed me, I expected them to hold on to Liverpool’s pressure to at least draw the match but unfortunately they couldn’t do that probably because of the red card.
Now Liverpool tops the Premier League table with one point ahead of us (Arsenal). I can’t wait to see us win todays match because if we draw, we will be behind them with same points but they will be ahead with goals.

Many football pundits and analysts have predicted Arsenal Aston Villa match to end in a draw, but statistically, in the last 16 matches between Arsenal and Aston Villa, there is no draw, it is either Arsenal win or Aston Villa win.

Predictions of not many analysts but all analysts could not have predicted 3 out of 3 favorites not winning their games during the games of today in the Premier League and as such them predicting a draw tells us absolutely nothing right now.The bookies are in favor of an Arsenal win because the odd of Arsenal is really low at 1.85 considering that Aston Villa just beat Manchester City not many days ago and their moral boost is in the sky right now.

I don't have any prediction for this game after seeing those horrific results of the games of today and as such any team from them can win this game,it would not be a surprise result.

What a nice super great Premier League evening,don't you think guys,from the favorites,the 4 favorites of today games only Liverpool won and with a lot of difficulties they were able to turn things around against Crystal Palace thanks to Crystal Palace getting a red card.

The other three favorites which were playing against really weak teams like Burnley,Sheffield United and Bournemouth not a single one of them were able to win their game.Both Brighton,Brentford and Manchester United screwed it up to the sky is the limit with Manchester United being the worse team ever and if they don't sack Ten Haag after losing to Bournemouth 0-3 at home I don't know when they will sack him.
