Bayer Leverkusen lost against Atalanta is one important thing for them as a team, especially for Xabi Alonso as a manager. I believe this could give Bayer Leverkusen a lesson, we know that there is no perfection in any team. So, maybe from this loss Bayer Leverkusen will learn a lot, and ready to give their all abilities for the next season, this is what i am talking about before, so we need to see surprise from Leverkusen and this will be a big surprise for everyone.
A big disappointment from the Bayer Leverkusen after standard well right from the beginning of the season and make every fans be proud of them with how they keep their performance so strong and also remain unbeaten, but later relax at the end of the season and give Atlanta a better chance to win them, which was a big surprise to me and everyone.

Because of the way they keep their performance maintained, nobody expects that they will be a team that can defeat them this season, but Atlanta makes that possible by giving Bayern Leverkusen so much pressure because they show them that nobody knows all. I think this will be a lesson for them, they have to take corrections to the mistake they made earlier to avoid repeat the same mistake next season.
No one would believe that Leverkusen will be defeated by Atalanta be ause of their outstanding performance in all their matches. But after the match when I checked head to head of Atalanta and Leverkusen clashes, I found out that it was not a match that one can just give Leverkusen the win. This is because Atalanta have only won Leverkusen twice and Leverkusen also won them twice in their last five matches.

This shows that Atalanta from onset was a strong amd difficult team for Leverkusen to win,and that came into play on the final day. Will I say that Xabi did not prepare properly or what he saw on the pitch was bigger than him, which made it impossible for him to come up with any strategy to outsmart Atalanta game pattern.

As a gambler bonuses are to encourage us to continue using the casino since one can be lucky with bonuses. Most casinos offer bonuses and the ones that does that often are new casinos that are still looking for more customers, as the bonus is a sign to lure gamblers to use their casino frequently.

I stick to a reputable casino for my gambling activities and currently, I am using Stake. I am not a bonus fan that will move round from one casino to the other in search of bonuses. Some casinos offer a lot of bonus but they don't have good reputation, and it can be problematic using such casinos. I do buy bonus way back thinking that I will have the high chance of winning but luck is what determines our wins.

De Rossi has little experience. But he is hardworking. Whether De Rossi will be able to strengthen the Roma squad remains to be seen. After De Rossi took charge of Roma, we saw a consistent performance by the Roma team. But gradually we saw the deterioration of Roma's performance. The Roma team did not perform well in the last matches of the season.

Roma management is not interested in spending big sums to strengthen the squad. They spend very little money on buying players. So De Rossi will not be able to build his squad with players of his choice. So nothing can be said for sure whether we will see a consistent performance from Roma next season.

let`s say that he has little recent experience as a coach but he has a lot of experience as a player and so let`s say he is not a person unfamiliar with football and its dynamics
the players/coaches in my opinion are the best, they have a different vision from those who do not play football on the field and also over many years they have absorbed the strategies
Yea, as a former player who has football experience is the reason why he is given another opportunity to prove himself worthy to be the coach of Roma, and no one will write him off. He tried when the took over the club from Mourinho but he could not continue with such performance till the end of the season.

Next season is there for him to build the strong and improve their performance in order for them to finish in first 4, so that they can be in the Champions League. If Roma continues playing only in Europa, it means that the club performance is not improving. De Rossi is young and will gain more experience along the line while coaching, which I know that he has also learnt from this past season.

The only thing that will stop me from holding bitcoin is death or bitcoin crashes, which the chance of that happening is very slim.

I don't love bitcoin to the extent of relocating to another country in order for me to spend my bitcoin. There are decentralized exchanges which will make the use of bitcoin possible, the law will affect those using centralized platforms.

I will get out the funds that I wanted to use to DCA for that week, if my close family member is in an urgent need. I will skip that week and whenever I am more funds, I will double my DCA for that week.

He said he used to be a gambler but stopped when he discovered that and that there are demons helping the casino and sport betting owners to manipulate people into becoming addicted and getting more money from them. Well he said crystal clear haha and if you ask Is this true or some superstitious belief about gambling? I would say everything is back to you frennn and if you are believer then or most of people will straight away believe it. I mean in my religion gambling is prohibited and something prohibited sometimes has a connection with demon or something like that.
In my religion, gambling is also strictly prohibited, and Satan's job is to trick us into gambling so that we are addicted or even Satan will lead us to shirk by believing in natural codes such as buying the lottery from dreams, or vehicle number plates from accidents and so on. makes us fall into things that are beyond logic. Even though we know, gambling games have a system or programmer so they have nothing to do with demons or anything supernatural.

However, whether we realize it or not, in modern times like this there are still many people who gamble, believe in things that are supernatural or related to natural codes to win a game, even though gambling games require mathematics, analysis and strategy to be able to win. I don't believe in superstition in gambling, but we can't deny that there are still many who believe in it, especially in lottery games.
You know these superstitious beliefs is being passed on from generation to generation through words of mouth, and this is why I will not blame those gamblers who are still believes that such thing exists. I have a friend that woke up one morning and told me, he saw a number in his dream, and he went straight to the Lotto shop, but unfortunately he lost.

I don't believe such these are in scenarios where our luck is to decided our fate or is it that a computer can have a demon that will change your destiny. Sounds very funny, though. The algorithm software that casino uses is designed to favor the house that is just the secret.

Buying or selling bitcoin via p2p can never be a problem in Nigeria because there will always be a way out. No matter that we know our government is having issues with exchanges in Nigeria, no mean say some exchanges no still dey do p2p trade.

I use bitget and bybit for my Naira p2p. If I want to sell bitcoin, I sell direct and get paid in Naira, amd if I want to sell USDT same. It is only Binance and Kucoin that have delisted Naira from their exchange. Don't be scared about the banks warning because they cannot know if your transaction was from crypto. Also use online banking apps.

Do you blame guns for killing human beings or you blame the shooter and send him behind bars. This is why it is useless for anyone to say bitcoin is used for illicit activities. It is the people that are using bitcoin for illicit activities that should be blamed and not bitcoin,this is where the government is being biased.

Fiat, gold, natural resources are also used for illegal activities but who will say that let them be banned. In my country some people steal our crude oil in exchange of ammunition. Don't be decieve illicit activities have bein in existence before bitcoin came into existence. Any commodity that can be exchanged for goods and service will be used for illicit activities.
148  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The real winning of gambling is withdrawals on: June 12, 2024, 05:31:27 PM
I can understand; as gamblers, we get tempted to place bets. The best way to counter this is to set a profit limit or target. Once the target is achieved, make the withdrawal. If you keep your balance in the casino, then you will eventually get the temptation to place a bet and will continuously want to make more money. Hence the best thing is to just withdraw the funds after a certain amount is made in profits. Withdraw the initial amount you used, and if you really want, then gamble with the previous game’s profits.
I don't think it is proper to have an amount that you will win before you can withdraw. As long as the funds can be withdrawn, just withdraw it. This is because if you want your wins to pile up to a certain amount before withdrawing, what if it does not get to that amount before losing all that you won back to the casino.

I have this instinct since I started gambling responsible that if it is not the money that I deposited into my gambling account, any other money there is not mine until I have made withdrawal, and since I started withdrawing without leaving any apart from the one I will gamble with latter, I have not fallen for the temptation of losing back my wins.

Xabi Alonso has indeed made many news media continue to report on him because of his greatness in making positive changes to the Leverkusen club. Even though he failed in the Europa League final, we still see everyone's appreciation for Xabi Alonso. Because that was the only defeat for Leverkusen in the season that just finished.

The real challenge will be in the UCL next season. And Xabi Alonso must be prepared for a stronger level of opponent in the UCL. And if you look at Leverkusen's current quality, Leverkusen's potential in the UCL is actually quite good. At least I'm sure this team will make it to the last 16 in the UCL. And even if they fail to qualify from the group qualifying round, at least this team can return to the European League. But I'm sure Xabi Alonso will take Leverkusen further in the UCL.
It's true, he will have an even bigger challenge next season, besides having to be able to maintain what he has shown this season, he also has to show that they can compete at a higher level such as the Champions League. It is a task that will not be easy for him, but I am sure he will try as hard as he can to bring Leverkusen to achieve something to be proud of in the Champions League.
They don't have to be champions, they can show a charming game that will allow them to talk a lot in the Champions League next season. I think that's more than enough for them. Because we also have to be realistic that it is not easy to become champions in the Champions League, especially if the team doesn't have as much experience as teams that are used to being there.
Any club that is playing in the Champions League knows the task ahead of them  and they know that it is always a difficult one since there are big and strong clubs in the competition. Any club that is not strong will not survive the group stage and that is where Xabi Alonso needs to make sure that he survives. That alone will bring more respect to the club.

It is from the knock out stage that matches becomes more difficult because experience will also play its own role. Xabi Alonso still ha e his men with him and he needs an additional player to strengthen the team so that injury or any setback from the players will not be a problem to him. He also needs to improve his game tactics, because any club that will be playing with Leverkusen will want to make sure that they win them to let them know that, it's champions league.
150  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: June 12, 2024, 03:47:34 PM
Has the Man United board done a sensible thing? I think it makes sense. They need to support this guy with all the resources, and Man United will be great again. He deserves at least one year after the FA Cup final. Winning 2 trophies in 2 years while dealing with so much drama and many setbacks isn't bad. He loves the club, and as expected Man United board has shown their support for him, so I'm sure he'll do well with proper backing and more confidence.

Winning those trophies for Man UTD isn't enough to say is what the club want, the EPL title is what they want or the UCL, I believe they wanted something bigger than those two trophies Erik ten Heg have won in his two years with the club. Fine they can't get any other manager to replace Erik ten Heg that's why they gave him another contract, to me the board is confused in making up their minds in letting him go.
Although is good to let him (Erik ten Heg) know his faith but at the same time I don't think the atmosphere is going to change, don't be surprised if we get to see a more disappointing Manchester United next season because with Erik ten Heg in charge things ain't going to change until he changes his mentality, relate with the players before starting the season, let them be on your side or else is going to be a failed project at Old Trafford next campaign.
I just see same thing repeating itself next season in Manchester united performance. Manchester united is bigger than winning only FA Cup and the fans are happy. It means that the club greatness is no longer there, and this is why the club is keeping Ten Hag and praising him that he has done well.

When will Manchester win EPL trophy again, I don't see that confidence and quality in Eric Hag because he does not know when to make right decisions to turn things around for the players when the club is facing pressure. He does not understand the strategy to use to counter his opponents when the game is getting tough for his men. Manchester united needs a quality and professional coach than Eric Hag if the want to win EPL.
151  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: June 12, 2024, 02:57:07 PM
I suggest that Osimhen stay at Napoli because what we know is that he is like this thanks to Napoli and the quality of his game has improved since he was at Napoli, that's why I hope Osimhen is able to stay at least for a season because we don't know that Conte could make Osimhen find his rhythm again when handled by the right people, and hope that Napoli brings in a midfielder who is reliable enough to be able to pass the ball to Osimhen because Napoli really needs that figure in the squad this season. At least Osimhen can focus on next season even though he still looks young at least he can learn to get better flying hours in Naples..
Coming from ligue 1, of course Osimhen was not a player who did have a great attraction at that time, even many Napoli fans doubted if Osimhen would be able to develop as he is today, 4 seasons with Napoli of course the scudetto is one of the biggest achievements that he presents to Napoli fans, but looking at the current condition of Napoli, of course there will be a desire from Osimhen to leave next season even though actually at the end of last season he has signed a long-term contract with Napoli, but after the news stated that PSG was interested in recruiting Osimhen, of course Osimhen was very open if Napoli wanted to sell him.

Seeing Napoli who failed to qualify for the Champions League next season, of course, does not rule out the possibility that Osimhen will leave, especially now that Conte seems to be more inclined to bring his former players to Napoli, Lukaku is one of Conte top priorities for him to bring to Napoli next season so it will indirectly make Osimhen position as Napoli main striker threatened.

We also cannot forget that Osimhen is actually being pursued by a lot of clubs. So there is a very high possibility that one of those clubs make such an offer which is really good for Napoli to pass. And if they are actually bringing Lukaku into the team, there is not a very strong reason for them to actually keep Osimhen in the team. Of course, if they are going to see a very good offer which is stupid to say no to, they are not going to say no.

By the way, what does the player want? If he actually actually wants to leave, there is no point in this discussion. Because if Osimhen once left, that is going to happen. Generally, when a player wants to leave a club, the club cannot do much to keep him. Has he said anything about what he wants to do?

Osimhen is a nice player that big clubs will want to sign if he makes his intentions clear about leaving Napoli in this transfer window. I believe that Napoli will cash in on Osimhen if they see the offer for Osimhen because Conte wants to bring Lukaku to Napoli. Osimhen has done his best for Napoli, and I think it's time for him to leave Napoli for another club so that he will still be relevant in the world of football.
Is like the price Napoli is putting on Osimhen is a problem for the English clubs to confidently go for him without considerations. I think that Osimhen has made his intention known to the club that he wants to leave and that is why Conte wants Lukaku to be signed to Roma. If Osimhen leaves Napoli, he will still not be forgotten in the club because of his superb performance.

However, when the transfer window is open, we will see the club that is ready to buy Osimhen, because he is a great player that most clubs will want to have as their striker. He still has a lot of talent in him which he hasn't displayed yet.

Gambling is based on luck and not because you are good in mathematics. There are a lot of games one can use to gamble which does not need any skill. Maths is a subject and gambling is for entertainment. I don't see what connects Maths to the fun that you are having.

Whoever feels Maths is important in gambling without having the skill of the game, is wasting his time. Having the skill with your maths knowledge will not give you a win if luck is not there. The only way we can manage our losses is to gamble responsible, and use little amount to enable us control our emotions.

Trading or gambling?
What advantages do you think sports betting and card games have over trading and investing?
There is no need to include investing here because it is completely different from the other two.

Gambling and trading are similar with just a little difference. The only difference between both is that, you can be a professional trader and you cannot be a professional gambler because gambling depends mainly on luck, no matter how skillful you are. Being a professional trader means that you will make more profit than losses and you will be successful.

Gambling and trading messes with our emotions and that is why it is good that you use only the amount of money that you can afford to lose because both of them are very risky.

OP, it all depends on the type of investment or business that you are venturing into. For example, real estate needs good location and region to make good profit. Bitcoin miners need a bitcoin friendly country to carry out their mining operations.

Investing in digital assets, buying of shares for a big company, gold investment and many more does not need region or location before your investment will run smoothly because they generates profit for you based on how much you put into it. Another thing is a company that is into production, location and region does not matter for your to sell your products, but it is how durable and reliable that your product is that will attract customers to it. Apple company is not in my country but almost all the youths are crazy about iPhones and they are using them, and many more.

It solely the decision of any investor to decide how much he is willing to invest in Bitcoin or any other asset. Bitcoin have high return proportional to the investors Level of Accumulation of it (stash) which is guaranteed in a long run, it simply a matter of discipline, if the investor is disciplined there is nothing that can shift his focus.

Bitcoin's price performance is not guaranteed in the long run to go up  - even though many folks (including myself) invest into bitcoin based on presumptions that it is more likely than not to go up in the long run... so each of us needs to establish our position size in accordance with a variety of factors, including the factor that BTC's price is not guaranteed to go up.

Sometimes I do come across people talking vehemently about their investments being guaranteed in the long run forgetting to know that uncertainty do happen even though we are making speculations but the most reasons why we make good speculations about the asset we invested on is simply because we need to be positive and hope for the best in our investments but that shouldn't mean we should be too affirmative in our analysis and speculations because so far as bitcoin is concerned, there are factors that leads to projection of it's price, so if those factors don't appear in the actual direction then it will be difficult to maintain same irrational mindset or beliefs.
Basically being realistic and positive about investing in Bitcoin will motivate you to accumulate a much larger stack.You may be accumulating a part of the worldly wealth in Bitcoin and it has to pull up to a point and keep your tongue wet. I have seen some investors convert some of their assets into Bitcoin and they choose to build another asset there. And there is a reflection of their confidence. You can follow them if you have confidence and positive attitude. I think a positive attitude is absolutely essential in investing and without it you will not be able to accumulate your stack freely. You should decide to choose your cushion amount of assets in depositing Bitcoin because you are holding it and the rest of the assets are financial security.

Selling your assets to buy Bitcoin is not advisable except they are liability that are in form of assets and they are not productive or bringing any returns or proceeds for you at the end of the day but if they are business assets like lease office equipments such as heavy duties, caterpillars, construction equipments and lifting equipments these are very good assets because they give you good proceeds so you can't sell such assets to buy Bitcoin but you can use the proceeds to invest in bitcoin, the only time you can consider selling such assets to buy Bitcoin is in a case where they start malfunctioning or getting old such that the cost of maintenance may be higher than the income they generate for you.
                   Selling your assets to buy Bitcoin is not bad if the cost of maintenance of those assets becomes too much but never use because you are inquisitive to buy Bitcoin and sell a valuable asset even though Bitcoin is also a valuable asset because just like what I was emphasizing before you quoted me than even though we are hopeful that our investments in Bitcoin are secured but let us not also forget that there are unforseen events that are likely to occur if the forces that keeps the market going are not in place so we should be mindful and thoughtful of the decisions we take when making investments.
Currently, with the uptrend in bitcoin price since it was created till now and the presumption that the odds of bitcoin price moving uptrend overtime is higher than downtrend selling an assest to put the value in bitcoin is not a bad idea. This is because currently bitcoin is one of the best assest, or let me say that the best assest to invest in that will give you a greater profit overtime than any existing assets.

The construction equipment that you are talking about will only be useful if it is hired out by a company and the day that it is not hired, there will be no funds from there. By the way do you know how much it is to acquire those construction equipment that you mentioned above. If you put all those money into bitcoin DCAing and buying at the dip regularly for just 4 years, do you know how much you will get in profit for 8 years which is additional two circles. Those equipment will worn out in future and become liability to you. But your bitcoin investment can never be a liability because it is a store of value and serves as an investment at the same time.

Just my thoughts.

If Manchester City also makes changes to their main squad, namely by recruiting new players in the back line, of course this could also make it difficult for opponents to move, especially if they meet Madrid in the UCL next season. If you look at the strength of Manchester City, they are still not strong enough in their defense. So there is still a lot that needs to be changed and Guardiola should be able to see that it is also important for the back line to be given additional new strength from new players who might be better than their current back line players.
Manchester City don't have to do many things, they only need to change the goalkeeper, that's all. All of Manchester City's defenders are strong, their problem might be find replacements for veteran player like Walker, but the quality doesn't have any problem.

Brazil didn't even include Ederson Moraes for Copa America, Pep should be aware with this because if Moraes is a good player, then why he didn't get selected? Dorival Junior choose Alisson and two goalkeepers who play on Brazil league over him.
They are still very good, but they have to make some changes to make them even stronger. Every time a club has to make changes, even if they are relatively small changes. The problem is that when they are still at the same strength, it is feared that they will be read by their opponents and at the same time other clubs will also make changes to make them even better.

Pep Guardiola certainly understands this, because he is a very experienced player so he will know what he has to do to make his squad perform strongly in all the competitions they participate in, one of which is the Champions League. Their failure this season because they lost to Real Madrid will also be a very valuable lesson for them. How they dominate the game but they have to lose, that is something that is not good for them. Therefore, they will also try to improve their performance.
Just one or two players would be changed but if you ask me, I will say that there is no need to make changes but to make an additional. Manchester city lost to Real Madrid in a penalty shootout which is always known to be a lucky means of winning. So I would not say that they performed badly in that match. In penalties, Real Madrid are always favorites because they are all professional players.

Next season will be a good one for City, but if they cannot still win UCL, it means that they have not improved. This is because Pep should be preparing and stay focus on UCL since City is used winning EPL just like Real Madrid is doing.
157  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin has higher market cap than the three biggest banks in the world on: June 11, 2024, 03:19:28 PM
It will be impossible for centralized bank to have higher market cap than Bitcoin because gradually fiat is depreciating and bitcoin value appreciates, which is giving people more confidence to invest in bitcoin and abandon fiat because of lack of confidence in fiat. Banks are run by individuals but bitcoin is decentralized.

Then how do explain the 3.9 trillion in assets JPMorgan has?
There are 23! banks in the world each with more assets under control than the total marketcap of bitcoin
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_banks
I agree with you, but don't you think that part JP Morgan assest was inherited and it means that those asset have been there from one generation to another generating profits which has increased the market cap of his asset. Bitcoin is still young and if as presumption, the price of bitcoin increases overtime, we might see bitcoin market cap above JP Morgan total asset market cap. Those banks have been in existence even before I was given birth to.

Thanks for the list.

Pep Guardiola took over Manchester City from Barcelona and taking charge of Manchester City was a challenge for him and he succeeded in accepting that challenge. The manager joined Manchester City on a long-term plan and has won several titles with Manchester City. Before the transfer market opened, there were rumors that the manager would leave Manchester City and take charge of a new team. He may not take charge of the parties he took charge of again. He will take charge of a team that is in good financial shape and has yet to win any titles. If so, where is his next destination going to be?  
Manchester United could try to sign him as well as Chelsea could try to sign him now the decision is in his hands, will he leave Manchester City or take up a new challenge.
Guardiola is not going to leave City this season, apparently due to the fact that his contract with City expires next season, rumors began to circulate that he might leave the team, but this could only happen next summer. He also mentioned at the Catalan golf tournament that he has no plans to return to Barcelona, ​​that's all we know about his future career. Should he look for some other team? He has an excellent team, perhaps one of the strongest in the world, an excellent salary, except that he would like to change something in his life, but we know nothing about it.
It is possible that he will leave Manchester city after his contract expires, because he never said that he will remain in City. It is true that he is receiving a fat salary and has achieved a lot but that does not mean that he does not have a plan on moving to another club.

I think he might want to go to Saudi if he is given an offer because their price must be tempting for any coach that they go for. It is certain that Pep will still be the manager of City next season, and there was no rumor that he is leaving now. Next season might be his last in City and that is why you see that people are saying that if he leaves City might start having good performance challenges.

Arsenal will be letting go of some fringe players in their squad during this transfer window to pave way for new players that the club will buy.They have some old names they are looking forward to selling,and those players are: Elnely,Cedric, Nketiah,Nelson and co.These players are players who doesn't add much to the squad,and as for Nelson,he was so important to Arsenal in the previous season they finished second,scoring some late winning and decisive goals,which made Arsenal felt he had something so special to offer,but he didn't show much of his abilities in the last campaign,making Arsenal think of selling him.I think selling them will be the best decision,and bringing new quality players who can produce something special from the bench will be much better.
Arteta has had many failures in the race for the EPL title, of course he must be thinking about replacing some of the old players with new players, he doesn't want to experience failure again next season, that's why it's important for Arteta to re-evaluate the main squad at Arsenal because he has to be successful in next season and don't have to continue to be runner up in the EPL, I believe Arteta can fix everything and next season it looks like the EPL will be his, he will fully compete with Manchester City in the race for the EPL title.

Arteta has to get and keep a lot of players who are quite productive because without productive players this team will have difficulty competing again next season. I think all the teams in the EPL have definitely made major changes to strengthen the team so they can compete next season, Arsenal Don't miss out on carrying out this reshuffle, there are many players who might have to replace them with new players, of course players who are really productive in scoring goals or guarding the goal well against every opponent's attack.
I would not say that Arteta has failed in two years that he took over the club as manager. This is because he has always finished on second place on the table, and had almost win the league but due to some wrong decisions of his or injury on the players which made the trophy to be snatched by Manchester city from them. He learnt from his mistakes last two seasons by having reserve players on bench.

What surprised me was last since that he had every opportunity to win the league both due to his own wrong decision for not knowing the match that he should take as his priority to win, messed everything up. The players are good enough to bring the trophy home, and if he will be offloading some of them to bring in smarter and sharper ones, it will be a good advantage to the club next season.

You should also take it in consideration that kids learn faster in anything they are curious about so yeah it really is very wrong if kids are in front of us while we are busy doing our thing in gambling. All the things we do might be absorbed by their young and weak minds so beware of it as it might influence them way too early in that vice.

Kids are fast learners, they copy everything that they see you do because they do not know the difference between what is right to do and what is wrong to do. Kids can copy you gambling and they would start doing it without your awareness. Before you can catch them in the act of gambling, they might already be addicts and it will become more difficult to help them fight their addiction since they're kids. Gambling should not be done where your kids can see you. If you are gambling on your phone or laptop, you can stay in your room or work space that it will look like you are working while you are gambling so they do not know what is going on. You should not also talk about gambling in front of your kids because they can learn from hearing too as they will want to try out what they heard their parents talking about.

Of course, you are right that when a child sees their peers doing something they copy and try to learn, and they can learn quickly. When a person mentions gambling in front of his child, and he gambles, the child will learn about it gradually and at some point he will be attracted to gambling. Children always learn everything by watching their parents, so all persons should do everything behind the children to refrain from doing bad things and doing anything that could cause harm to children. It is by all means a guardian to be careful that his child does not learn and imitate gambling or any vice. So if you want to gamble, you must eat secretly, you should not play in front of a child. However, children can copy everything at a young age and what they can see and copy in their brains from childhood they will understand and focus on as they grow up.
Whenever I am gambling, I lock myself up in my room and wouldn't want my kids to come around me at that moment, because I know that they are smart and can easily understand what I am doing. Actually, they are still very young but I still keep my gambling activities secret.

However, children can learn to know about gambling through ads on TV and on the internet and that is why it is good to monitor what they are doing with their devices and also educate them on the consequences of gambling, so that it can be a guide for them as they are growing not to involve in gambling to the extend of becoming an addict.
