Enjoy them before the retire!
Both Messi and Ronaldo scored in the Champions League. They are both awesome players, Ronaldo has won games in the finals in both international and club competitions on more than one occasion. Messi is the kind of player that runs the game, creates opportunities for others to score and then scores himself. As I am not comparing them, I have just focused on enjoying their game play. When these two legends retire, the football world will lose its magic.

Agreed 100%! And to whomever who would like to continue arguing which is better,,, than it is their loss as they will forever be caught up in one guy and miss out on the beauty of the other. These two cannot be more different and yet live and breathe in the same air as us all, for that we should be greatful.

My wish is still to see them play together on one big final season stage, and show the world how wrong it was to choose one or the other Smiley

Lazio didn't play bad but they were unlucky. Bologna used chances better than them and deserved to win the game. Napoli beat Fiorentina and stayed at the top. Roma also won, now we are waiting for Milan game. Interesting odds, it looks like bookmakers see Atalanta favorite. I would play both teams to score for this match. I don't think Milan will be quiet, Rebic, Diaz and Leao will be in the pitch. Atalanta is already the favorite so I think they will score at least one goal. Zapata, Malinovsky and Pessina will play. It could be an open game by both teams. I'm expecting a great game for fans.

Football is round they always say right? Spurs beating City on several occassions over the last season was proof of this that you did not need to create chances or be better in possession, you must just simply make the most of the few chances that fell to your lap,,, in which case Bologna was able to.

Anyway, a great game for everyone, and a shame for me as I picked 2-2.

Get a Second phone. Most people only owns one smartphone at a time hence there's a high chance the robber wouldn't be able to think you have another one. Worst case scenario is if they thoroughly check your bag (get a bag with secret pockets!) although IMO most robbers are in hurry and so I don't think this is something highly likely.

If you can, leave your main phone at your house. That would provide better security.

Nice idea I never thought about this,,, in fact a better idea might be to have a second phone but also make sure you have another BTC wallet there maybe with a small amount,,, or a fake account on a crypto casino you do not use at all. Just have a balance there from faucet or whatever and so if you are ever robbed you can show that yes you have BTC but only on casino and you gamble most of it (or show the fake wallet with small balance).
1544  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2021-10-02] Bitcoin investors 'no longer fearful' — watch this BTC price level on: October 04, 2021, 10:55:38 AM
In the cryptospace, when investors begin to larp that they are no longer fearful? It might be the best time to begin to be cautious, I reckon. That article also mentions Michaël van de Poppe? He is a shill and it is very doubtful that he invests in the coins that he shills in social media.

Totally agree. For some weird reason,,, when the entire industry and market is positive, things go down (look at the past few months for example of people talking about new ATH coming soon).

And when everyone is letting go like firesale (last year first few months), then Bitcoin loves to prove them all wrong.

Of course the point missing entirely is that the majority of serious investors have never been fearful. Why would they keep buying if so?
1545  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Pandora papers <== They said Bitcoin was used to avoid taxes! Think again on: October 04, 2021, 10:13:51 AM
Thank you for sharing but I think this is not pro or anti Bitcoin, or even fiat,,, this is just people in power being people in power. Greedy,,, corrupt,,, wealthy beyond what they are supposed to be and not paying up tax like us regular people.

They did it in USD maybe or euro or swissfrancs or whatever but if someone told them there was a way to get even less tax by converting to Bitcoin they would. And soon with more banks accepting and understanding BTC soon they can mix dirty money with it too.

That will not make Bitcoin any better or worse Smiley

There are some workarounds that can help you. For instance you can watch the thread and see it pop up on watchlist every time there is new post.

You can also use telegram notification bot. I am using one from tryninja and it works great. I get notifications on telegram every time somebody quotes my post or mentions my name. You can also set it up to track any word maybe even phrase but that is newly added function and I did not try it yet.

Thanks yes other people have suggested this also and I agree there are great ways but it is hard to explain my computer situation I know about them but they are not implementable fully because,,, I do not have a computer Smiley I have a browser access that I get something like every 60 minutes and then not for 60 minutes (I have a random stagger shift at work,,, hard to explain!!), and I use the free time in between to check the forum. But I only log in temporarily and leave it,,, and then come back around the day until time to leave.

Only on my phone I truly have all-time access but as I mentioned not actually easy for typing like now.

All are excuses I know but for sure I will "manually" remember this, I am just new to this pool this is all:) Like EPL pool in my first try I forgot picks many times Smiley

Maybe not in this forum but this forum isn’t FJ’s only market.  If it is, they’d go broke.  Lolol.  I don’t think more than 80% of the people who hang out in the gambling section really gamble. 

I guess I meant a global market, but this forum is a big majority US people I believe and they already are betting on other American sports so the only ones not betting on those (I would say) are non-Americans which also have a big majority on this forum but either do not watch sports there (like me) or never even gamble (like the 80% you mention  Grin ).

Exactly, but those who hang out in the gambling section and discuss the particular league (not generic discussion) are likely gambling in real life. Personally, I bet on sports, limited sports only as I don't want to jump from one to the other, I like to focus on games that's why I could give some opinion based on what I really see.

I don't know the total number of posters hanging out in the gambling section, but even at 50%, that would be good enough as not only do they gamble, they could also attract gamblers to click their profile or signature.
You guys are very generous with your percentages. I would take a bet immediately that less then 20% of posters in gambling section actually gamble on regular basis. I am actually thinking that number is closer to 5 percent. Majority of bitcoin paying signature campaigns promote gambling sites and have mandatory 5-10 posts in gambling which forces people with no interest in gambling to post here.

You can see the truth of things when you try to organize some kind of betting event on the forum when you actually have to pay to participate. There is 15 people that will join no mater what and another 20-30 who will join something extra popular like PL or CL contests. Hell I am organizing La Liga and Serie A pools where you are almost guaranteed to walk away with profit and still can't get more than 15 people to join.

I have no idea honestly but I think 20% (both Trofo and tokeweed)

Good to see you here leea-1334 and welcome.

Thank you,,, I am seeing myself growing in a lot of new areas of sports. I only played very amateurish on Asian handicap style football,,, which in reality is not even called handicap, just you always take your own team, and then you offer someone else a goal or half goal or something. I am now always looking for new things thanks to all these new Sportsbet support for other sports Smiley

Please don't be as good with this as you are at MM!

If only I was as good at real betting as in random predictions Smiley
1550  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The misconception when buying/investing in Bitcoin on: October 04, 2021, 06:12:05 AM
when someone says bitcoin is expensive it is something wrong. Years ago when the price was $1000 there were also people who said that the price was high, but today the price is at $47000. we can never think that the price is too high, because nobody knows what the maximum price can be, nobody knows. what each person should do Is invest at the point where they think that when the price increases they will make a profit

Well, they're not wrong though. Even when I first came and $1000 was not yet the achieved price at the time (the ATH was 1400 but this was in 2014 I guess) I felt it was expensive. The average salary for most people in most parts of the world does not even meet that amount, and majority in Africa and Asia even earn less than that in a year.

I agree,,, price is not too high and not too costly to enter at any given time but we all cannot deny it is "expensive".

^Really don't know why all of you don't participate in our free bet challenge. Value proposition is great since there is not lot of us anyway. No matter, easier grading job for me and even bigger chances for us participating to walk away with free bet Smiley

It is not that I do not want,,, it is that I forget:) I have to this forum access on 1 computer which I cannot put any bookmark on and on my mobile phone, which has bookmarks but it is very annoying to access or even use because it is old and takes forever to load. So usually on my weekends which is the time I use mobile I am highly inactive and on work days I have to manually remember. I love the promos from Sportsbet and try to enter all of them!

Thanks Sportsbet for the amazing sponsorship too!

@aysg76

So now it is almost going to be 6 months after your initial post of 3 months. How has it been for you since then? Your last edit was on August 11 so I guess you will be very happy over the past time to get more BTC at prices near to or much lower than your initial.

I envy you in many ways,,, for your situation to be able to do this but more for your spirit and freshness to this scene. I wish all the best!

Started the week perfect but now Salernitana (never heard of them until now) of all people have scored so I am now impossible to get more than a close score,,, But I am hoping to get a surprise for Juventus match after Wink

And, anyone watching this thread, don't forget Trofo's predictions challenge. I know I have before!

Thanks,,, I wanted to do this early but placing it very late to try and see what everybody else did Wink

Sassuolo vs Inter should be a goal fest, BTTS and Over 2.5 should be the safest bet, but I would fancy Inter ML currently @ 1.73 more

Inter win is the easiest way out also I would say here!

Soccer Blackjack October 2 2021: Chelsea vs Southampton

Good luck Saints!

Actually, I don't think that's the case here at all.

I'm guessing that due to the overwhelming popularity of this promotion, management is more or less catering to the players' needs/wants/requests of more Soccer Blackjack.

I believe this is the true case. Firstly, the old Blackjacks only came about 2 hours before the game, and only lasted for about 1 hour! A lot of people missed out on betting as not everybody is available on the chat all day to see, so now they made it last many hours, I believe even yesterday lasted 8 hours.

Secondly, now they are making it available twice a day to catch Asian time zone like right now, Blackjack has never been available so early:)

Second one is now available:

Looking at the selected matches for the matchday 7, I feel that there will be some of them ended in 0-0. I would not expect too much this for this matchday 7. I have submitted my prediction as follow: Aubameyang, C. Wood, Vardy, Sarr, Son, Antonio, R Jimenez. Probably I'll get no more than 3 correct prediction this time but who knows if miracle will come?  Cheesy

This is what I said before, the matches look very ripe for 0-0, I feel at least 2 might turn up as such. Injuries and players getting tired because yes it is still early but the games was already hectic for EPL + cup games + internationals.

So nice to see Jimenez back on scoresheet,,, but that team is full of potential scorers who only get less than 10 a season.
1558  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: October 01, 2021, 03:33:36 PM
Well even in the league there are seasons where you finish the game with three points despite very close events happening. When Liverpool made 96 points in the Premier League, they scored a final goal in overtime in several of the games. The season after they didn't have that luck anymore and performed relatively bad. But sure you are right, generally speaking in KO games more surprises are happening as an underdog can make the impossible possible with a good portion of luck.
See Napoli who now lost in the European League, who would have thought that given their performance in the Serie A? I am curious if the loss was the exception and they can keep going as they have done in the last couple of weeks.

Very true, very true, but for all the final goes scored in OT, there were other games they could not find a goal despite trying so hard. That season previous in earlier games,,, they actually had even more attempts but less than xG achieved. This is what I mean in the league it is much more a "justice" system where eventually your consistency translates roughly into the correct number of points.

Real lost to Sherif, and Napoli lost to Spartak, but in the end you still expect the losers of those games to be more successful over a series of campaigns.
1559  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Show me you're ethereum price prediction. on: October 01, 2021, 03:13:23 PM
As it typically happens when BTC fall down, most of the altcoins follow suit. Ethereum leads the adverse trend with a 6.5% drop. Just a few days ago, ETH was well above $3,100, but it’s now down to approximately $2,900. Can we still see ethereum reach 6k$ this year? Bitcoin price is being affected by new set of Chinese fud and altcoins are affected too there are a lot of altcoins a top altcoins that is now falling down and 1 of them is eth. So how would you defined the ethereum price next 3 months or at the end of this year can we still see it 5k$ to 6k$ or not?

Ethereum is less and less like this pattern this year though so we should give credit where it is due. Remember the last time (before this fall) that Bitcoin fell Ethereum actually moved above and beyond 3k.

We are back again in 3100 now so I would prefer to see it stay this way this entire month, rather than go back to 4k and fall back again below 3k,,, all the interest is still in defi coins now though.
1560  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin on a recovery mode on: October 01, 2021, 02:11:12 PM
That's why is it called resistance, but no worries, sooner or later it will be broken. Last month the biggest barrier is $48,000, several attempts have been made, (x3 if I'm not mistaken), before we suddenly punch it and stay on that price and then goes to $52,000, new higher highs after the last all time high of $64,000

So still possible to break into that $45,000 resistance and then hopefully we can go to $50,000 this month. September, which is one of the worst month for Bitcoin is already over, let's look forward for October to be a good recovery month.

I know it is still too soon to say anything as Bitcoin already has a lot of momentum spent this week but it is nice to see another try to break the 45k resistance (because this one seems to drop back again),,, it would be nicer to see 50k but the greater victory was that 40k was not broken and if we can hold on to this level until next week, then all is bright again.
