Just because you don't like it doesn't mean some people hate it. Check the history of gambling and how it started, it all began with casinos in physical form before football became something of passion that supported and fans around the world now used as gambling, you cant mention gambling without casino games, they are very demanding in other parts of the world, in fact, there are people that would play Casino over sports and not because they don't like sports but they can't analyse it the way you can and they even have the skills to turn the gambling in their own favour instead of sports that have to depends on what the player do in the field.

Tottenham have started a quite poor form recently. There is a significant decrease in their performance in their Premier League games and it has caused them to get negative results recently. I have started wondering how this form would reflect on their Champions League matchup against Milan. I know that there is still a long time until that but they don't look like good at all. Kane has still performed solidly and scored so many goals until now. But even his effort isn't enough as long as they don't stay strong as a team.

To say they battled so hard to knock Arsenal out of the top four in the English Premier League and qualify for the Champions League last season is an understatement, considering the last time they did it was around three years ago. Tottenham finished first in their group, however, it appears that the teams weren't as tough and demanding as other groups, and they didn't have as many points as even the most serious groupings tiers. Milan would most likely use them as a starter pack to go through the knockout stage.

Quote
We don't know about Milan's condition yet as they haven't played a Serie A game after the break ended. But if they have a better form until the first leg then I might start giving more chance to Milan about eliminating them. I'm still saying "might" because Milan didn't seem well against a big team in the group stage - Chelsea.

Seria A is enjoying the holidays more than even the most watched leagues, but judging by what Milan has been playing, there is no doubt that they would not win against Tottenham; it wasn't like Milan did their best, but Tottenham isn't any different, and as it appears with Milan's recent developments, they have a better chance of making it out of the knockout stage.

Perfect, Brentford managed to party at home today with a final score of 3-1 in Liverpool's defeat. They played like they should against a big team like Liverpool, yes it was defending and counter-attack and really they surprised everyone. 3-1 wasn't a score even Brentford had hoped for but they managed to beat Liverpool for maximum points at home.

So what now, Liverpool give a lot of hope to Tottenham in 5th place with a difference of 2 points. Their loss was a shock and I'm sure the bookies won big today. I actually don't know what Liverpool's weaknesses were today, but to be honest Ibrahima Konaté is not for blamed for the defeat even though the first and third goals were due to his mistakes.

Anyone would think Brentford would lose that match with what they played the last time in Anfield with Liverpool, it is their home and was also humiliating and that was expected but after that match, they improved lately, Brentford won and drawn in most of their matches than the losses, that's was what gave me good confidence that they will win Liverpool which turns out to be true.

Liverpool may want to push further, the inability to win has been a factor for Tottenham, I don't think they will be able to beat Crystal place in their next match, if Liverpool beat Wolves, they can meet up just that they need it to be by a big margin, winning their Next 3 matches is what they needed the most right now.
1744  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: January 02, 2023, 05:43:42 PM
Brentford host Liverpool in today's match of the day. Brentford are playing well this year. Liverpool has to win the match to stay in the top 5. We can say that both teams have no problem in finding goals. I think we are in for a game with plenty of goals. It is possible that we will see goals from both teams. Liverpool will move up to 5th place if they win the match. They will want to start the year well.

The performance of Brentford is very low compare to what Liverpool has done in the last 5 matches if we include their friendly matches, they dont have a consistency, however, they have beat some hot teams like Manchester City even when they went to their home, the same Manchester City has beat Liverpool on the same month, I feel Liverpool wouldn't have it easy with this guys, it will likely end with draw because they are having the match in Middlesex, home of Brentford that they will likely protect it, even if they cannot win because of the humiliation they had with Liverpool in the Anfield.

1746  Economy / Economics / Re: Passive Income? New Start-Up Would Pay you to Share Personal Data on: December 30, 2022, 08:11:33 PM
Would you share personal your data to an ad company for a pay? The data will be used for advertising purposes where you can earn a cut of the revenue that the app generates from it. This data would include- what you buy or watch on your mobile device. For instance, a user could consent to sharing his ride-share history so advertisers could create segments of people who ride a certain amount. That would eventually pay consumers up to $50 a month. Can you do it? Could this be considered as a passive income?

News Source

This reminds me of a time when Facebook paid people to keep an APP on their phone without doing anything with the app in return, they will pay you $30 every month at the end of the month, which may be more than the amount as it depends on your location, I believe New York (US) were highly paid during that period to keep the app running in the background and some people were using VPN to bypass the restriction from forbid countries and after few months, they ended the loyalty program.

There are two sides to the outcome of a paid tester, the company may receive inaccurate data from people because most restricted users would want to use that opportunity to earn as well, and anyone who agrees to receive a penny for their privacy to be used as a lab rat does not value himself/herself, you are being paid because they need something from you, otherwise, they would have used their family members. We should value privacy above money.
1747  Economy / Economics / Re: Saving one third what you earn monthly is not that hard, isn't it ? on: December 30, 2022, 07:10:20 PM
There's no excuses not to save no matter how low your salary is as long as you are determined to save. Yes, self-discipline and focus on your goal will make it work. However, if you just make a plan but without action plans, then it will remain a plan forever. Saving is hard, yes it is, but you can always make it happen if you have the high desires to work for it.

A dream will always remain a dream if you don't turn it into a goal. The goal must have a clear execution plan, otherwise it will not be achievable, and money is just a means to achieve our goal, money cannot be a valuable goal, because owning money will not make you happy, you need to understand why you need it. Therefore, it is important to understand why you save and then everything will work out, otherwise it will be a tedious process that you will soon abandon.

You can save all you want provided that life doesn't bring you unforeseen circumstances or what you don't expect, we have seen people who have enough wealth through their hard work and dedication only to be wiped out by a sickness they don't expect. Some people save money without checking on their health status, they think they are been dedicated and discipline not knowing they are even saving money that will end up being used to treat their health because they don't even bother to check their health status, they don't know that have cancer, they don't know they have a brain tumour, they don't know they have diabetes and these health challenges kills the purpose of saving.

CONCLUSION: No one is perfect. We are born to make mistakes in our journey of life but making same mistakes often results to a total failure. We should always learn to avoid making repeated mistakes and also learn from our previous mistakes to correct our journey in life.

This appears to be a guide for a perfect person since these are the characteristics of people and it is impossible to find someone who does not have one or two of the highlights, it is what makes us unique. Life has a way of limiting our path to success through most of these things; it is natural. I can even vouch for myself that at some point in life, I have to make mistakes, and when I learn from those mistakes, my comeback always gives me extensions because I make sure it doesn't repeat itself, only a fool is beaten twice.

Madrid should have been looking for players to replace Benzema with good quality for a long time. but it seems that Madrid is not yet matched with a deadly striker. was once interested in the PSG striker, but it seems difficult to get him.
Benzema may be taking a long break, and Madrid is reportedly interested in recruiting players in the transfer market. but nothing seems to suit Madrid yet.

The decision to sign Mbape to Real Madrid was one that Real Madrid had been waiting for. They knew that Benzema would eventually retire, and they needed a young player. I believe Mbape was the perfect fit for that attack position, but his delusional reasoning and love of money prevented him from doing so. Though the boy is unquestionably skilled and no one would want to betray his country club(PSG) for Spain.

Both have same possibility. I meant real madrid will be going up if barcelona will not able to win against espanyol. Real madrid needs to win the next match caused by real madrid must not lose any points again. Public were seeing the matches from barcelona and real madrid as easy matches. I have expected full points to be earned by both and there would be no choice for real madrid other than staying at the second place and waiting for barcelona to lose some points.

Fear teams that are likely pushed to relegation, they are underrated sometimes because of their inability to move up but they are the type that wins over big teams at the top because they need the points to stay away from relegations more than the top 4 teams. Don't be surprised if Espanyol takes Barcelona by the horn, and if Real Madrid could win Valladolid, that is a chance to take back their place in the table.

it's obvious that Haland came to English premier league to steal and destroy. Have not seen any striker from other leagues that came to English premier league and settled the way Haland is going. Some always found it difficult within two years.
Arsenal has to be serious, because man city won't let them breathe. To me, Man city is still very favourite for the title, but if am to choose I'll give it to Arsenal.

Even though Guardiola knew his team was in good shape, they still went ahead to sign Haaland despite winning the Premier League title two years in a row. Haaland has accomplished many goals in a short period of time but has not done more than what he has done in Dortmund, though he has yet to reach that time in Manchester City. Let's hope he keeps it up since they might go close to Arsenal again.

I was surprised to see how much Arteta changed Arsenal, despite the criticism. Last season was a difficult one for him, but it has worked in his favour now. I can't even decide between them and Manchester City as the team that may win the Premier League this year.

We can see the price of Bitcoin is going down gradually but no one wants to understand it depends on your stock market it is also a digital currency through digital transactions and it is currently in bad condition Elon Musk said in 1 reply on Twitter.  Bitcoin is as cold as winter you have to wait for this of course bitcoin price may go up at the end of this winter so be patient everyone.  So if we all wait and if we all hold on to what we have, it's going to get $30,000 to $40,000 by the middle of the year and get to a very good price and it could get to a hundred if we hold it tight, so everybody's disappointed.  Let's save Bitcoin by holding instead.

Can we just have a bitcoin moment we used to have like the days Elon and other Institutional investors weren't here, it is hard to see bitcoin updates associated with one or two influencial person which is really bad, if you come to bitcoin because you like someone, I'm sorry to say that bitcoin is not for you.
Elon has literally sold almost his bitcoin, I don't know why he still runs his mouth to drag bitcoin even when MicroStrategy owns more bitcoin than him, they added about 2,500 today and you hardly see them tweet unnecessary tweets for bitcoin, he has had his time, he should rest. I don't blame him, they sold one of the biggest bitcoin platform for him to run his mouth like tap.
1752  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Could the need of Bitcoin being more divisible lead to a hard fork? on: December 28, 2022, 06:14:02 PM
Imagine the following scenario (that could possibly occur in decades):

Bitcoin becomes widely adopted, its marketcap surpass the dollar's, and it become so valuable that even a single satoshi is worth more than, for example, a couple of pens, a bottle of water, etc.

In that case, payments for small amounts wouldn't be possible even with second layer solutions such as LN, because even a single satoshi would be more valuable than the price of the product. There would be a need for Bitcoin to be more divisible, for it to be broken down into even smaller parts.

Would such need to use smaller denomination units (smaller than satoshi) require a hard fork? Can someone shed some light into it?

There has never been in the history of bitcoin that a hard fork bitcoin has ever become successful, the ones they did in the early days of bitcoin and the ones they did in the all-time high price of bitcoin to date have not reached the half potential of bitcoin talk more of doing what they are been created for. A hard fork of bitcoin is not necessary nor indispensable, it will make some bitcoin holders if they airdrop it for them but it will mostly enrich some Cartels who will create such fork coins, we have seen it in the past and they didn't it age well. Look at BitcoinCash creator, Craig Wright, he ended up scamming people with his fake Bitcoin only to come back again to say that he is the real Satoshi, a very dishonest person.  Huh

..............

Your shop is very well organized in that customers don't have to complicate in and out of ways into your business center, if you really have bicoiners, you will be patronized, my only concerns are the payment platform and the lawmaker overriding CBN with that bill.

If you look at Bitcoin, it is measured in USD and for people to pay for your business, they have to pay transaction fees and make sure they are sats that can quickly confirm in the next block and if they are to do that in this case, they will be spending much in this Christmas because the Mempool is always congested and paying about $1 which is equal to #700 is really a big amount of money in Nigeria as fees.

Nigeria Politicians are picky and follow nepotism when they want to pass the bill and a vote, no doubt some of them own bitcoin and they are trying to pass the bill so that CBN wouldn't have authority over bitcoin but I think this bill will likely get rejected as only a few of them may likely want to pass this bill. If the bill becomes passed, I wish you success in your business

but filing cases against legal casinos does not necessary mean we will win and can take our money back , there are several cases we have seen here that people did not gather their own money . but all in all? it is still safe in playing in legal casino that also asks for KYC mostly . let us gamblers decide to what they wanted to play for.
Yep you're correct, legal action doesn't mean you will always win even though you're the victim and has an evidence about it. But do you think the casinos doesn't have any evidences that has been faked to attack you back? also they're have huge money to hire the best prosecutor and they have a chance to bribe the magistrate. It's not surprising to see tthis especially if you live in a third country world.

I've seen a similar post on this thread about a casino that refused to pay a player after he won a large sum of money, they knew it was their fault, but they tried to use an excuse to keep the player from getting his money; the player sued the casino, but the judge wasn't transparent with the case, which led me to believe that the casino can go a long way to avoid being caught; they bribed the judge in the same way they're using an excuse for the player that he violated a term in their policy.
I was sad with how it turned out but I'm glad the case is still being pursued because the lawyer is eager in seeing it conclude in the supreme court since you can't pay the judiciary at all levels.

Manchester united has strong matches from the mid January till the end of the month,they should take all these matches serious,so that they can just keep going up,up,up.
I think Manchester United are in a better position to be able to handle any team that they will meet when the season gets tougher for them. There is no too much media buzzing around the coach and making him second guess his team selection because Ronaldo who attracts them is no longer a member of the club. I believe they will be more focused now on trying to be one of the top four that ends the season. They were very impressive against Nottingham forest, no doubts they can keep this performance.

If a team is good, no amount of centered Media around them will affect their performance, even at that, Ronaldo was only in the media for his consistent benching during important matches while the team struggles to win, Manchester United was just like a skyscraper built on a faulty foundation and yet, Erik wasn't ready to take the opinion of the public and now that Ronaldo is out of the system, I hope he takes them to their destination.

Manchester United against Nottingham Forest wasn't something big to celebrate or yardstick to measure if they will make it to the top 4, the last time Nottingham Forest met Manchester United in their home was KO, Man United beat them 8-1, they aren't really that a match for the red devils. Let's see what they will play in their subsequent matches, that will confirm their continuity to that top 4.
1756  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season on: December 27, 2022, 09:21:38 PM
I watched Liverpool's performance yesterday against Aston Villa. Their performance is now much more organized than before. Liverpool played very well against Aston Villa. If they can put up such a performance against Real Madrid, it will be very difficult for Madrid to beat Liverpool. Without Benzema, Madrid's attack is not strong enough. I don't think it's possible to beat Liverpool with a weak attack.

Real Madrid is very different from other teams, even though they are players capable of destroying Liverpool's defense, they still have the mentality of being champions. That's the one thing most feared by the teams that will face Real Madrid. Maybe we'll see Real Madrid lose when they play at Anfield, but when the second leg, maybe we'll see the opposite result. In essence, whatever happens in the first leg later, believe me, Real Madrid can turn the result around.

It's a slap on Real Madrid to compare their status with that of Aston Villa. Liverpool got them and that's cool to say there defense structure was bad to some points but I don't expect Real Madrid to live it's defense with open space like Aston villa and Liverpool played.

To say that Real Madrid had 14 trophies of Champions league in their gallery, don't you think Liverpool would want to go 2nd place and break record too, they wouldn't want to go easy on Real Madrid, the same energy Real Madrid would want to return back as they would want to remain the championship in this league. I believe that both in the first and second leg, No way Real Madrid will be sleeping on this trophy except what I'm not seeing occur.

I don't know why you guys only discuss between Liverpool and Real Madrid while we're still on top 16 elimination, there's many other big clubs that has higher chance to win e.g. Napoli, Benfica, Manchester City, PSG, AC Milan and Bayern Munich.

Discussing the Champions League without Real Madrid and Liverpool is an inconclusive discussion without them. Wink Joke Aside, they are the first and second team that won the last season and that is why and as this season advances further to the knockout stage, Real Madrid are now paired together which means one of them will likely go house as such, it is going to be a tough match that no one will want to miss out, February is going to be tough. I also look forward to seeing what will happen between Frankfurt and Napoli.


Bookie give Real Madrid 13 odds to win Champions League, for me surprise that bookie give 10 odds on Liverpool they think Liverpool have more chance than RM, and Liverpool so bad this season

Iteration and Past events determine the Odds displayed by Bookies, it varies actually and changes as the event comes closers, it possible they can even decrease it as soon as they find out that Real Madrid wins Liverpool in the knockout stage and is possible they increase that of Liverpool on the day of the match between them.

Real Valladolid will make this match a surprise match to people, because they will like to use all their strength and energy to play Real Madrid to achieve victory from them since Karim Benzema is not too balance to play this match. If what they displayed in their last match, they can display more than that with Real Madrid, I believe they will end the match with smile because there are some signs that show that Real Madrid performance is about to reduce in the area of attack. Barcelona will never allow their opponent to stop them not to achieve victory from this first match after the FIFA world cup competition.

This will likely not happen buddy, do you know why? The last time Valladolid met with Real Madrid, Madrid won them and guess what, Kareem Benzema wasn't around that time for some reasons I don't know and if you look at Real Madrid last couple of matches, you will notice that he has been away and Madrid is doing pretty well, the thing is that Real Madrid will be okay with or without Benzema because they have other guys that are good in their own way. I missed two guys since beginning of the season, the likes of Casemiro and Marcelo but in few weeks to come, I have a good feeling that Madrid will be making moves to purchase new young players if the management is in need of them.
