1501  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What strategies do you adopt that can help to make millions in sport betting on: January 14, 2024, 10:31:36 PM
No strategy has got an 100% assurance as to how well it can fetch you millions , with gambling there have been no proven strategy as such but then people have applied different strategies and have actually made millions off it but then it still not guaranteed that it will work all this times so it isn't a long term strategy.

A few strategies would have been listed already on this thread but personally I don't use just a strategy, I apply different strategy depending on what I want to achieve at a particular time so my target influences my strategy if my target is such that I want in a period of shoet time I use an aggressive strategy but then I go conservative when I want to spend longer time achieving that which I have set as my target o it's more like long term target are conservatively achieved while short term are aggressively achieved.
1502  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Another question? Tell me your average amount per bet and your monthly income? on: January 14, 2024, 10:24:17 PM
Hello gamblers, this is a kind of survey aimed at getting to know my fellow gamblers better, particularly in the context of sports betting. I would like to know your average bet amount and your monthly income.

You don't need to provide exact figures; an estimate would suffice. Through this discussion, we can assess whether we are being too aggressive in our gambling habits or if we are playing it safe with our bets.
Sometimes I get aggressive and sometimes I play conservatively, somehow it depends on my mood and my risk appetite at the moment, there are days I'm very conservative such that you would wonder if I didn't make my selections carefully enough but then it's just me in a very different mood at that point in time on that day .

My pay monthly isn't a stable one because I don't work in a firm that has got a fixed payment monthly, I work from home more like a Free lancing job son I make my average around a few dollars monthly but then I know how I share it amongst my expenditures and before making out a few that I set aside for gambling, I try to be that careful not to gamble Above my set limit and that was why I mentioned I go aggressive at times and the other I'm conservative just to make sure I still sty within my budget and not spend more than I should gambling.

Gambling is basically about winning based on strategy.  The more a gambler gambles, the more experienced he becomes, at first he may face losses but as he gains experience he will be able to win consecutively. And excessive gambling leads to losses for the gambler. Taking risks in particular works best in gambling because it is never impossible to improve without taking risks.  That's why gambling requires risk and experience.
It's true you gather more experience gambling but it in no way guarantee winning, experience doesn't means you can win ,it doesn't matter how long you have actually win been gambling to the point you become very experienced and strategic, you are still at some point prone to loosing so let's just keep an open heart to it.

Knowing that losses is inevitable gambling, will help a long way to keeping people away from addiction except for those who are kin and would still keep a straight head at it. Knowing that your level of experience dose not remove the fact that you will definitely run into some losses will help keep of ome mentality and also not relying on some other persons predictions because such person is said to have experience enough gambling, the day you decide to play their game, may be their bad day and you may end up joining them to suffer losses.
1504  Other / Off-topic / Re: Who does gambling addiction affect the most? on: January 14, 2024, 09:55:50 PM

Gambler should learn to gamble without affecting their family. A gambling addict as you have said may not care about his/her home. Imagine the case of someone trying to sell his car to gamble. This car is for him and his family and if he later do that and lose the bet. It will definitely affect both him and his family.
I don't know if there's a way one gamble's such that they get their family involved or a way to gamble and not get your family involved because to the best of my knowledge I know too well is that we gamble individually so I try to understand how we gamble and get our families involved or not get our family involved at some point.

Whenever one get to the point they begin to sell off their properties just to finance their gambling habit, it can be considered that they are becoming addicted and should at that point stop as much as possible because they will only realize how much damage they have done after they have sold the property and lost the game in which they did placed their bet but then they may not get to understand at the point where they are doing such because they ass usually very optimistic and almost too sure they are going to win.
1505  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A brief advice for the newbie gamblers. on: January 14, 2024, 09:46:16 PM
I will keep on saying the same old thing, newbies that are new to gambling should only use the amount that they can afford to lose for gambling, and don't use the money that you have budgeted for some important to gamble. Don't take loan to gamble because it will only increase your addiction.

Addiction is bad and can ruin you before you realize it, this is why you shouldn't see gambling as a means to make profit or a means to pass time, so that you don't become addicted to it. However, you can gamble once or twice in a week and set a gamble budget for your gambling activities. Don't get carried away with other people's wins, because gambling is based on luck.
Setting gambling limit is the easiest way out to staying out of addiction or better still it's a better way of preventing yourself from getting to the point of addiction gambling, when you have a budget with which you are gambling with and you are disciplined enough to sticking to it then it would be easier for you.

But when you gambling at will just without any budget or any form of discipline it is possible you can gradually get to the point of gambling addiction especially when you are using money you can't comfortable lose then you may get addicted chasing losses and you may end up loosing even more , using what you can comfortably loose will enable you not to get too emotional such that you would want to revenge on the casino and win and recover your funds but then you may most likely not win enough to recover your losses except you are lucky
1506  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is not a means to an end, Do it for fun and don't take it as a job on: January 14, 2024, 09:24:16 PM
One of the reasons why people easily get addicted to gambling is when they start their journey into gambling just so they can solve their financial crisis.

Most of the people around me that are strongly into gambling and would even dress up in the morning as though they are going to work and go straight to the soccer betting shop are individual that don't have a job they are doing and that have seen people win big money through gambling and so all their mind is fixed at getting their own win also.

Some will even do small jobs just so they can get the money they will use in gambling with the mindset that it is through that gambling that they will be freed from poverty.

Once you find yourself in that condition just know that you are going to waste your time, money and energy in gambling and the reality is that most of the people that have a fixed mentality that they must win in their gambling are the ones that always loose their money in process.

Gambling is not a means to an end and their is no guarantee that you must win in the process so just do your prediction and enjoy the fun, if you win, thumbs up for you but if you don't win don't allow it get at you and don't assume you can always win back your money, learn and master the right time to walk away.
Seeing gambling as an escape means to solving your financial needs is even doing yourself more harm than good because you may end up loosing even the little you have with which you could have started already to fixing your problems but then the greed of wanting to get more or doubling the little you have can cost you all that you have got.

Getting a job so you will be able to find your gambling habit is as good as doing a free job for the casino. You are supposed to rather use your money you earned from your job to take care of yourself and later hope to use the remaining which you can spare to gamble and if you get lucky you get to double up your funds and get an extra fund for your sef to meet up with other needs, but approaching the casino with all your needs will definitely get you to loosing all your funds to the casino.
1507  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Eredivisie 23/24 - discussion thread on: January 14, 2024, 09:13:48 PM
But PSV is playing like a monster right now and they don't stop winning. On average they win every game with three goals difference. It doesn't really look like competition anymore, but I believe that the only title PSV is still playing for is to not lose a single point in the whole season.

I am wondering whether PSV is so much stronger than all the other teams or whether all the other teams are quite a bit weaker than last season. The Champions League will be interesting because it iis hard to tell what their results in the Eredivise mean in the Champions League. It looks impressive, but the Champions League is a different business although I think they have a good chance to beat Borussia Dortmund.
This season PSV has got a good form and it's very evident in their domestic league performance and even in the group stages games in the champions league ,they were doing really well and their performance do showed they deserved to qualify upto this stage now and I'm optimistic about their performance at this stage.

With the performance PSV currently ha e at their league, even if I know that the champions league is way more competitive but then been able to win most teams consecutively in their league and staying at the top of the table with a very wide margin is enough to tell that they are not to be taken for granted and should be watched. This season it's very possible PSV will win the eredivisie title and aswell get to the quarter finals of the UCL which will indeed be a great achievement for them so far this season.

I dont know if that is 100% true, but we are tempted to think that for the only reason of having a mega team like Liverpool fighting since the start of this tournament, alongisde with some other teams like Rome, from Champions League we only have Milan like a big team droping here, we miss the chance to have Manchester United but they do a very shit performance and ended up in 4 place.
Liverpool has always had the dream to be the champions of the Europa league especially under the klop and this seem more like one of the best opportunity they have ever gotten since they have ever wanted it, if you recall this happens to be one of the trophy Liverpool has not been privileged to lift under klop.

Klop will literally stop at nothing to getting the Europa trophy this season because if he's unable to get the premier league then this will happen to be the next big trophy he can be able to secure this season and so far he's really looki like he wants them both which is very possible except for Manchester city in the premier league.

Manchester united performed worse in the UCL and couldn't make it to the Europa after the UCL, AC Milan is another team I'm expecting to perform well in the Europa due to their performance in the premier league but then it seem more like they are gradually declining in their domestic league which is so far making me have some doubt around their ability in the Europa because I actually taught they will be another problem asides Leverkusen but then if they bring their poor performance to the Europa they may aswell not last long at the Europa.

This is the second time Barcelona is meeting with real Madrid this season and it has been a disaster for Barcelona as they have been unable to at any of these meetings show good level of resilience rather they are been in a situation that could be seen as humiliating because they are aswell seen as a big name but loosing to a big names always.

Although this isn't a la Liga game but as a final.game for a trophy such winning margin is very far from expectations but it's funny how we are seeing such in a finals, this for me means Barcelona is I'm their weakest state and it's very possible they will be loosing their la Liga games after now because they will be faves with teams who are now by this match understanding how weak Thay are now, most likely they will be having draws more than wins I'm this later part of the season.
1510  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: January 14, 2024, 08:40:48 PM
We don't see see PSG among them because their performance until this moment has been really poor.  Sad  PSG actually follow these four teams right behind according to bookies but there is a huge odd difference between PSG and them at the same time. I don't question it much also after the performance I watched from them until now.

PSG just don't play here the same way they do in the Ligue 1. Their performance is much more unreliable especially in away games. If you checked out their away games in the group games you would understand me easily. I think that PSG would be eliminated quickly if they face a title contender earlier.
The poor performance of PSG has mostly been seen in the champions league because I'm their domestic league, not only are they at the top but they are very much dominating the league and aswell performing so well they look very formidable amongst their other pairs in the Ligue 1 this season.

I at some point doubt the possibility of PSG getting pass this stage but then I see that they are definitely going to put in the required efforts because they have really gat their mind on achieving much already from the UCL but just that the league is such a competitive one such that they will need extra effort to stay in the league, personally I think there will be no need of getting pass this stage because they know beyond this stage, they will definitely crash out so they could just save the stress and focus on their domestic league.
1511  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: January 14, 2024, 08:29:52 PM
That's right, in order to take the top 4 positions in the Serie-A table this season, Napoli need more improvement. A look at Napoli's last three matches shows that they have done badly in all three matches. And there they lost many points. Napoli's loss of extra points makes the fight for the top tougher. However, in yesterday's match, Napoli managed to snatch full points from Salernitana. That was very important for Napoli. I thought for a win against a team at the bottom of the standings, Napoli shouldn't face too many problems. But this win was not easy for Napoli. The match turned out to be a struggle for Napoli.
Napoli has won one of their games recently, they actually struggled literally to win that game and it's very true they aren't in a good form at this time but they were earlier this season and even Last season such that they were even able to win the league title by the end of the season but now I don't know how well they will be able to defend the title.

Osimhen who is currently at the AFCON has got an impact on the team via his absence, this shows they have got some level of dependency on him but they will try their best to seeing if they can cope in his absence, it's almost very certain they will not be able to get to the top of the table again this season because their form currently is such that can get them to that position and moreover they aren't complete as a full squad, this will give us an insight into how Napoli will look like if he had left as been anticipated see times last year.

Lyon loosing to Le Havre is a clear indication that this season they are really in a mess and they still stand a very good chance at been relegated because they still stay at the relegation side of the table,  Lyon suffered two red cards today which was actually an advantage for Le Havre and they did make sure to secure three points by the end of the match.


PSG is almost done with the first half of the game and they are yet to secure a goal against a team that's considered weak  especially when compared to PSG in depth and strength nevertheless I'm very optimistic they will get a goal by the end of the first half of this game so I'm not brothed yet because PSG is actually dominating and ahd got a better possession of the ball and even more opportunities to getting a goal, here's another opportunity to getting three points definitely by the end of this game .
1513  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: January 14, 2024, 07:26:33 PM
Stuttgart loosing three goals to one against B. Monchengladbach is such a considerable in expected results because considering the form Stuttgart had this season especially wt the early part of this season where they were able to almost staying at the top of the table at a point this season but then they were later stepped down a little.

B. Monchengladbach did perfomed really impressively and they were at some so they most likely did used their advantage well enough to their victory, I never expected such a win, my expectations were if it would be a win but then it shouldn't have such a margin. Because Stuttgart is considered to be an average team who has done so well this season in the bundesliga so somehow it's assumed they have got a new and productive form that was capable of helping them a lot to archiving good spot on the table because it obvious they are not winning the league titles this season.
1514  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: January 14, 2024, 07:17:08 PM

The disappointment should be on the coach who has found it difficult to build a proper structure in the manchester united team, the attack is woeful, the midfield is a disarray and the defense is in shambles, if anyone deserves blame, then it is the coach, ten hag.

is he good enough for mufc? i never believed so; he needs the sack soon
Some times I begin to think if there's an undisclosed agreement between Manchester united and ten hag that has got them hooked with him this long that they are yet to sack him, not even rumors of his sack has been heard anywhere making it look as if they are okay with his performance and are not reliving him of his job any time soon.

Manchester united keeps been the worse they can ever be, it's really bad that even at home they still don't have that dominance that's enough to keep their opponents tensed awhile, Manchester united losses and draw at home just as thy would away and it's really not making sense in any form, there's no improvement with any games and they are not looking like a team that may be improving anytime soon, tactically and in their performance they are just not good, could it be the Coach's relationship has gone too bad with his players that they may want his sacked too.
1515  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: January 14, 2024, 05:09:55 PM
The draw that ended the game between Aston villa and Everton isn't what was expected of them, I know Aston villa is a very though team yet they can be seen better and above Everton so I expected to see something much more than that which they did today, a goalless draw is way below expectations but then each team were able to get a goal at the end of the day.

Manchester united is making me unhappy because I don't understand why you would get an early goal in the first half of a game and not long after your goal you became carefree enough to concede a goal, a header that could be stopped by the two players who were just next to the Tottenham player who got the header, Manchester united don't seem like they will win this game as Tottenham seem to have taken over dominance after scoring the goal, except Manchester united improves by the second half this is going to add to their list of home losses this season because Tottenham may likely not settle for a draw.

Atletico Bilbao has been doing fine recently with some series of consecutive wins, it beginning to look like they have now got a better form as compared to that which they had at some few weeks before the end of last year but then they seem to have assumed a better form now which is definitely helping their position.

They had poor possession and were not domineering in the game according to statistics but then they were able to win at the end of the game which was actually what was most important, getting the three points which they needed to further go up the table, currently they are now at the third position with fourty one point ahead of their opponent real socidad who is at the sixth position with thirty two points having lost one and won one while drawing the remaining Three of their last five games which shows some level of weakness on their side.

Most times the affiliates get commission upon new customers using their code to register and that alone will make the affiliate try all they can to get you registering with their code , tho they also help you get your issues resolved quickly when such comes up but it isn't a guarante to winning.

Some of the casino do attend to customers under their affiliate quickly because they know that any of their form of misconduct may cause the affiliate to move his followers away from their platform which will means them loosing money so they try as much as possible to making sure they satisfy their customers first before others but then for fraudulent casinos, it doesn't matter whether u are under an affiliate or not they may still not pay you regardless.

Why not Arsenal?  I know the team have been facing tough times with losing on three consecutive occasions in the English league, still, they stand a better chance of getting through to the finals.
Manchester city may be abuzzed by the return of KDB, but am sure more matches prior to their UCL fixture will focus and speak of his performance having returned and facing the pressure to reproduce instant results.
The pressure to produce instant results on KDB is something their coach should really be weary off because KDB is now injury prone and if they should excact much of such pressure on him, they may be sending him back to a second injury which will cause the team a lot this season.

Arsenal is currently in so much set back and they really need to fix up else they may end up just amongst top five as Manchester city, Liverpool and others are really get in the race to the top so will not letting any opportunity to move ahead get pass them, Liverpool is bent on staying at the top and in their recent performance they have really been performing brilliantly and maintaining their top position well enough but they still need some consistency or else Manchester city will take over leaving them at the second position on the table..
1519  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: January 13, 2024, 10:33:08 PM
Liverpool will have to be very careful right now, and they shouldn’t joke with any of their matches. No club should be underestimated by Liverpool right now, because any slight mistake from Liverpool will result in Manchester City taking their position, and if Manchester City can be in the first position, then they will do everything possible to maintain it. I believe Manchester City should be able to win the league this season.
The competition in the premier league is about getting even tougher than it has been this season so like you said Liverpool will have to be alert and making sure to maintain consistency with their winnings if they must be able to still contend well enough for the title this season.

Manchester city isn't far from Liverpool by points a d now the return of their injured players is more boost and confidence for them which I consider a great factor to their chances so Liverpool will have to be more cautious at this point of which I think they will. E very much aware of, both teams are participating in other leagues outside the premier league so they both have a distractive factor with which none could be able to excuse their self as a reason they couldn't maintain a good position on the standing because both team have the same challenge.
1520  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Know when to stop on: January 13, 2024, 10:24:07 PM
then I would like to say that stop gambling when you want making money from gambling, stop gambling if you are chasing losses, stop gambling when you don't know yourself and finally stop gambling when you don't feel any pleasure from gambling anymore.

Hopefully a little helpful for your ideas OP so it's not always about the things that winning makes you difficult, but indeed doing self-introspection is a difficult thing for humans so they don't know when to do something to stop when it makes their brains work and only rely on ambition.
All these are really good idea on gambling and also to helping the gambler not get addicted and cause more harm for their selves but to help them stay responsible gambling or probably like you said quit so as to stay safe and not get to the point of addiction where they will have theirselves suffering harm gotten from gambling.

If gamblers can follow all that which you have mentioned well enough, they can be sure to maintaining a good and very healthy responsible life gambling and outside gambling but the problem has always been the ability and consistency to keeping to this which you have mentioned most gamblers are even aware of all this, trhey know it but they lack the ability a d discipline to carry out that which they know will e good for them at the end of the day, if only these gamblers can have good self control over their habit, I'm sure they will be able to do even better.
