Well looking at the difference in the odds I would say that the last game is probably the one with the most tension because of the amount of odd given to it and if I were you I would probably go for a simple cash atleast it's better to have half of the amount promised than to allow your greed make you lose our on the whole money.

It's a very good game, the second half started very well.
PSG's two balls hit the post. There is a high probability that we will see another goal. There are 15 minutes left in the game.
We have been watching very good games for two days.
With the way things are hitting up it's likely that a goal comes any moment within the remaining time left but the game can still just end up that same scoreline too but one thing is for sure and that's a mouth watering second leg full of goals because Paris st German will come all out for the win if they lose this leg and the same way they handle Barcelona maybe they might rough handle Dortmund too at home.

For me it is very understanding that no gambling person that we have a good record to someone who is not a gambler that is why whenever you are gambling you should not let people that does not gamble to know that you are example of because when they notice that you are a gambler some of them may use it against you and also dislike you so I don't know for some patience but I've seen many people that dislike their friends because then see that the person is a gambler so for me gambling is not a bad thing but we should gamble with understanding knowing that it has effect and then when you basically know the effect of gambling you should do not be a victim of  it, so that is why we need to understand very well the functionality of gambling before we entered  into it
I think that all depends on the type of gambling environment the person belongs because in a community or society where gambling is seen as something legit the need to be secretive with his gambling won't count at all because all what he would be thinking is how things are gonna turn up fine for him rather than doing the latter.

Fuel prices seem to vary based on which filling station you buy from. Today I just bought gas at 680 per litre and refilled gas at an average price of 1280 per kg.
 
The price of things is still getting worse every day; today you might see it come down, and the next day you will see it go up again.
 
Sometimes 2-3 weeks ago I bought the small indomitable chicken flavour at 7500 due to the price they said they had reduced, but today I bought 1 carton at 8500, which is a 1000 difference in an interval of weeks.
The price of things Is now like the cryptocurrency market where nothing is ever certain as the whole market is volatile and no one can get the correct price rate, and this is exactly what is happening to the price of commodity in Nigeria, one minute you will buy at a low price and the other minute the price has gone way up which is what have been causing crazy economic decline in the country.

It is impossible in my opinion to score a goal, it only takes 4 minutes to beat Real Madrid, of course it is not easy for Bayern Munich even though the goal is scored from the penalty spot, I am still at risk for the final result of this match but my filing says that this match will end  tied with a score of 2-2, even though the time had entered the 80th minute, there were still at least 10 minutes remaining and additional minutes, at least that was enough for Real Madrid to equalize the final score in tonight's match.

Although Bayern Munich failed to win at home but at least, Bayern Munich managed to be able to play well even though the final result was only a 2-2 draw. But anyway, Bayern Munich also managed to turn things around with a score of 2-1 but yes, we also realize that Real Madrid is the king of Europe so it is not surprising that Real Madrid still managed to make an equalizer to 2-2 and Vinicius managed to make two goals. Although indeed, it will be difficult for Bayern Munich to beat Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu in the second lag later but yes, maybe Bayern Munich can still make a surprise in the second leg later. Because indeed, on paper Real Madrid is certain to qualify for the final match, but I hope there are different results in the second leg later.
To my suprised Bayern Munich actually played very well even more than Real Madrid in terms of game play but Real Madrid were more potent and deadly than Bayern Munich and that's why they were able to come back and equalize the game even when Bayern Munich turned the lead to their favour. But Bayern Munich now have a really strong task ahead because to defeat Real Madrid at the bernabue is really a tough task to accomplish.

A bull market is a time when scammers catch greedy investors. The rule or bait “Buy now, otherwise you will be late” works for scammers. The deadline is set very short so that the person does not have the opportunity to soberly evaluate either the project or the proposed deal that promises large interest rates. Therefore, now is precisely the time when decisions to do something with your finances should, on the contrary, be checked very slowly and carefully. Don't chase high percentages; ask yourself why anyone would give away something that brings good profit to the owner. And would you do the same?
It is in chasing bigger profits that lead us to get scammed in the process. Instead, focus more on the security of your coins and guard your wallet 24/7, otherwise once you lost them all, all your capital and efforts will go into waste. While trading is more profitable in this bullish season, but scamming as well gets more rapid when everyone else is excited to get profits in the market. The safest way is to get well-informed and be more precise in your decision making, security of your investment is more crucial rather than taking profits this time, or you can guard them both.
The talk for profits is everywhere during this period and that's why everyone becomes so eager to get involved in crypto even those that know nothing about it, all what's in head is how to get money through any fast way possible which is the first wave of becoming a victim of supposed scam that comes to your way. The thought of being extra careful should always be your top priority because the moment that dies off then losing all your work within a blink of an eye is of a vivid horizon.

Big day today, I still think that Real Madrid will win the game and it feels like we are going to get the answer today at least. Ancelotti will show how he could do better this year, last year not only he was humiliated at UCL by losing to Manchester City with a big margin but he also lost the league to a Xavi Barcelona that had no money at all, so last season was a terrible one for them.

They want to show so many expensive players (interestingly not all bought that expensively) could do better this season and I believe that Bayern Munich is not a big threat, definitely not this season. Bayern sucked all season long at bundesliga this season, so making sure that we are dealing with a Real Madrid that will have a huge chance to win this game as well.
As the game stands now Real Madrid is leading by a goal but a goal difference isn't all that a threat because that could be altered by just one good chance by Bayern Munich and the is a tie but that seems unlikely although Bayern are playing pretty well but that could all change if Real Madrid get in their stride and scores another one making the margin bigger. Real Madrid are a good but that doesn't guarantee success all the time and the experience they had last season was a preparation statement and challenge for them this season.

Success is something that will really be that depending on how someone would really be that handling himself into his crypto investment. Actions would really be that varying
depending into your views and perceptions in regarding into your crypto investment. Doesnt matter if its on Bitcoin or other altcoins.

Fuck crypto.

yes it does matter if it is bitcoin or shticoins.. and so be careful if you are confusing them and convoluting the ideas in your own head, which largely likely means that you actually don't even know what bitcoin is or how it differs from shitcoins.
Yes, it is better to call Bitcoin for Bitcoin and altcoins for altcoins to be more specific rather than calling crypto as it addresses the entire crypto market. When people once hear crypto, they'll already think it is a scam investment especially for new investors not knowing that there is legit which is Bitcoin. It will not just confuse the readers but a piece of misleading information making them think that Bitcoin is just the same as altcoins (aka shitcoins) that have no value.
Talking to them separately (not crypto) the better for it this will clearly be understood and put in their mind.

Many people don't really get the meaning and difference to the two word as one can be way misleading and not only that it can also result to confusion on someone who is trying to start up with the right type of coin. I aslo learned the difference in JJG teachings here and also doesn't hesitate to correct my friend who are still glued to the error inorder for them not to mislead anyhow into buying shit crypto coins instead Bitcoin.

The use of the word crypto is mostly refered to the altcoins which some folks HODL which is them gambling without knowing and Bitcoin on the other hand is what is mostly being highlighted here anytime in discussion.

I think these influencers must know their target audience before accepting the offer or should not be included in their vlogs or videos?
I have seen lots of influencers promoting scam gambling site, most of them don’t even care to make research about the project they are promoting, as long as they are going to be paid well, then they are accepting the offer, they only care about themselves, and they don’t care about the negative impact the gambling site will be causing to society.

Whenever I see any influencer promoting any project and am interested in it, am always taking my time to do my research before I put my money, I don’t just into it because the promoter is a influencer, because I know all what they care about is money.
Well atleast you even get to show interest as for me whenever I see big social media influencers promoting any site or casino I just disqualify it even if am certain that the casino might be good, for me it's just as if am being played on because the people even telling you about the casino actually doesn't even use them and know no shit whatsoever about these casino.

Real Madrid have a tough match that will be battling with,and that game is Sociedad.It is really going to be tough because we all know how fgood Sociedad is this season especially when they are at home.Their players will definitely be a thorn in the flesh to Madrid players,and I think the game is going to end in a draw because I don't see Madrid dropping points in that encounter either, despite how good sociedad is.I think the game will end draw if Madrid cannot win.Mean while.Bellingham is still making me shock for the fact that the season is almost getting over and he is still leading the top scorers chat,despite not being a false 9.I really respect him

I think they (Realmadrid) are playing currently  at their peak maybe.... so its  shouldn't  be too hard for them to take sociedad out of their next game unless they are willing to rest players for future games to prevent  them from loosing form to their opponents.


I heard Xavi  is considering staying  to lead his team forward through next season which  is Barcelona  hopefully he leads us to a new era to clear the club loss  of the club

I think you haven't seen the odds given to Madrid by the bookmakers because if you have seen that then you would know that the bookmakers are actually aware that Real are supposedly going to rest some players against Bayern Munich in the champions league. I say this because on a regular day, Real Madrid would never be given such high odds against Real sociedad.

Bayer Leverkusen set a record in the Bundesliga as they went undefeated this season to win the title. But this record of theirs is not so easy because there are 38 matches in a season. In these thirty-eight matches, the big team, the small team, their own home field, the home field of other teams have to go through many challenges, but losing in some matches is a very normal thing. Although this is normal, Bayer Leverkusen has not lost any match in the Bundesliga, it must be said that it is a great team achievement.

They played really well in the Bundesliga, and I wouldn't be surprised if they also become champions in the Europa League. I think they are superior to Rome anyway. On one side there is Germany's undefeated best team, and on the other side there is the 5th ranked team in Serie A. Even just looking at such statistics, it is possible to say that Rome will lose in this match. Of course, you may have to be a little lucky in European matches, maybe they will play very well against Leverkusen Smiley
Bayer Leverkusen is a great team that is doing well every where, in Bundesliga they are considered as the best team in the league no doubt about that and in the Europa League they are seeing as one of the best team that is fit of winning the league.  I really want Bayer Leverkusen to win the Bundesliga and europa league because they deserves it . If Roma and Bayer Leverkusen should meet in the finals I don't think Roma will be able to defeat Bayer Leverkusen because even in the Italian league Roma is not even in the top four best team for thus season but you can see that of Bayer Leverkusen doing well in Bundesliga,  even in europa league Bayer Leverkusen has performed better in their games.
Leverkusen have proved to the the strongest club currently in Bundlesliga with their superb performance and unbeaten record since the beginning of this year. No one expected all these victories from them this season. This is why I think that they are the favorite to win the semifinals. Roma have been in a good performance since the arrival of De Rossi and there is no doubt that Roma is performing better now compare to when Mourinho was in charge. Perhaps, if Roma does not take their semifinal match wit all seriousness, for sure they will not qualify to the finals.
It's kinda funny why you would think that Roma wouldn't take their semi finals match that serious because believe me that team is going to take it seriously, I mean it's the semi's and no one wants to lose although am also in support or of the same speculation that Leverkusen might be the champions but if there is one thing am certain about football is that you can never be too sure or certain because anything can happen within the 90mins of play.

Bro wetin you talk here no be lie, knowledge and understanding na two different things wey most people no know, them no know say understanding dy deeper than knowledge, I say so because just as the op dy so, their are so many people wey know him in person, but na only very few go understand am, that implies to skill or job also, you fit know about crypto very well, but you fit no get the required understanding on how to navigate your way around it.

Lastly, back to the topic of discussion, those two things mentioned by the op on why people no dy grow dy very much valid no doubt, but him fail to add procrastination and lack of finance,  procrastination na a major killers of destiny, most people wey dy endowed with enough knowledge and understanding wey still remain for a level na two things fit limit such a person,  which is;

* Procrastination.
* Lack of finance

Those two things have the power to limit person more than anything else, so if you can conquer this two things above, you will definitely succeed or progress as long as you get the required knowledge and understanding in what ever job or craft you are into.
One of the major point picked here na procrastination because my brother no be small thing wey this particular habit dey do for the life of people oo, only procrastination fit damage your entire circle of planning life and na why e dey very dangerous to procrastinate, even me wey dey talk now sef na very big victim of such habit because it's not an easy task at all to overcome am.

Real Madrid's match schedule for the rest of the season is not too tough in La Liga, which means Ancelotti can safely rotate in several matches when they have to fully focus on the Champions League against Bayern Munich. It doesn't make sense to play the main squad against Real Sociedad today, that's why the probability of Madrid winning today is down.

If Real Madrid lose one or two matches, it will not stop them from winning this season's La Liga trophy. Currently, Real Madrid have secured the first position, so I don't expect them to focus much on La Liga again because they are well secured. The Champions League is what I want Real Madrid to focus on more now so they can win the Champions League.

Infact, I do not see Bayern Munich as a tough opponent for Real Madrid in this upcoming semi-final because Bayern Munich is not in good form currently. In fact, what really made them reach this semi-final is just based on Bayern Munich's experience and luck. Even in the matches they played with Arsenal, Arsenal really performed better than Bayern Munich, but Bayern Munich was just lucky based on their experience. But I don't think luck will be against Real Madrid because Real Madrid is more experienced than Bayern Munich.
I don't know if this particular reason was the one why real Madrid ws given such big odd this weekend in their Laliga match fixture because am surprised to see Madrid given that huge amount of odd. For now what I feel Madrid will be more focus on will be their champions league fixture against Bayern Munich because the winning the champions league will just crown the tip of the ice cream for them this season because the Laliga as you said is more like a done deal already.

Tomorrow Liverpool will play again, they will meet West Ham in London Stadium.

Do you think West Ham will beat Liverpool? even though West Ham lost against Crystal Palace and Fulham? Cheesy

Since Liverpool played really bad in their last few matches, I believe West Ham will have a good chance to win, I can't forget they can lost against Everton.

Will Liverpool lose points in this match? I do not think so. They have already lost a lot of points for a few weeks and are far behind in the championship race.
We were talking about them becoming champions a month ago, but they could only win 1 victory in their last 4 matches. I think this situation will not continue like this any longer. Liverpool have had a really bad few weeks, they have to get back to their old form or they will finish the season in a very bad way. They will cause great disappointment
With the current state of Liverpool, it's not advisable to play them in your bet because they are out of the title race and probably have nothing they are playing for rather than their EGO as a big team and for me that's not enough so I won't be surprised if they actually lost another game, so for now anything Liverpool for me is a no go area because they have already done enough damage to my predictions already and my bets.

I've only ever lied when holding my phone thinking I was playing a game when I was gambling, but when my wife asked what you were doing “playing Cand Rush”  Grin

You have a friend who lies almost exactly like my own friend, but he confessed to his wife he lost money on the road while driving but what happened he spent all his money playing slots, in order to protect himself then the friend said to protect himself.

Many stories are habitual to cover gambling in any way, they do this not wanting to be stressed after losing a lot in question by other members, even though this is bad behavior there are still many people doing this habit.
so many people tells lies to cover up their shit, so that is what I mean by some persons because if you are married and you are a gambler who gambles almost everyday you will recover yourself up when you have spent the money that you are supposed to spend in your family and you spend the money outside the family based on gambling you must have one or two things to cover up the lies so that they will not be a problem between you and your wife, that's the reason why men tell lies
Well there is nothing a desperate gambler cannot do and this particular lies told by gamblers is common and that's I tend to be skeptical about some stories my friends which I know are gambler tell me. This thing is very common and its not only gamblers that do it, lies are told all the time just to cover up things we don't want people to know.
197  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: April 26, 2024, 07:33:11 PM
Real Madrid's only obstacle was that they managed to get rid of it in the quarter-finals and nothing can stop them from winning the Champions League title again. Maybe Bayern Munich will still make things difficult for them and of course Bayern Munich have learned a lot from the previous meeting against Real Madrid so they still have a way to do that.

It's just that with Bayern Munich's current performance it feels quite unreliable, especially as it is still doubtful that Tuchel can produce the best results. I think that in the first leg, Bayern Munich must win considering that is their chance as hosts and if they fail to do that then Real Madrid will have more freedom when they host them in the second leg. We know Real Madrid's comebacks are always crazy and I hope to see that again in the future.
Now Real Madrid is quite the favorite after Manchester City were eliminated, but Bayern also cannot be underestimated, even though this season Bayern's performance has decreased quite a bit compared to the previous season, but Bayern is still a top European team that has lots of quality players and is worth considering.

Maybe Bayern Munich's failure to defend the Bundesliga title will make them even more motivated to win the Champions League title this season and this is something Real Madrid should pay attention to because if you look at the squad that Bayern Munich has, they have everything to be able to trouble the team Real Madrid.

The other team can't have more chance than Real Madrid and as you just said Real Madrid is now the favorite after they beat Manchester City.
Bayern Munich should play against Real Madrid and this won't be easy at all for Tuchel and his players especially when we know Bayern Munich is in a bad situation since they are even about to stop working with their coach Thomas Tuchel. This can create a negative atmosphere in Bayern Munich and this can affect the performance of Bayern Munich against Real Madrid.
With the current situation of both teams, I think betting on Real Madrid for this match seems safe and the only thing that can help Bayern Munich to get survive against Real Madrid is a miracle.
If there one thing I have learnt about everyone expecting a team to win a trophy is that the team doesn't actually end up winning it and I think the same case might happen with real Madrid because as it's stands now the whole wide world is expecting no team than Real Madrid to actually win this trophy and when everything plays we might be surprised to see that another lesser team might become champions
198  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Re: One major business challenge on: April 25, 2024, 11:53:11 PM
There are so many challenges business men and women are facing in the country right now that is making most of them not to grow and sometimes people that wants to start up a business will feel discouraged because of those challenges. One of the challenge is;

1. Unsteady light: this is one of the major challenge business men and women are facing, imagine people who has computer center, hotel, provision store etc and there's no steady light, how did you expect there business to move forward especially now that the price of petrol has gone up and the annoying part is they will be paying for light (PHCN) yet they won't give light steady. How did you expect someone that is doing photocopy and printing to be buying petrol to put on his or her generator, that doesn't make any sense the money they will use to do photocopy and printing can not even buy the petrol. Hotel owners too, same thing imagine buying petrol for lister that will be generating electricity to 30-50 rooms with ac inside all the rooms that's very expensive and most customer can't stay without ac. Provision stores, you must make sure your drinks and other things get chilled else customer won't buy. The inability to make all these things available in your business will result to shutdown of business and providing them will still result to little or no profit. Even if the country wants to be porous, hard etc they should at least make light available, light is somehow therapeutic in the sense that sometimes you feel dull and lazy but the moment you see light you become relief and there's this vibe that light always give. Light doesn't just affect business people but everyone who need's it.


You are right, and I agree with u, that is major challenge we have in terms of business because majority of the businesses in this Nigeria are business that require electricity for it to function well, that is why are a lot of generator in this country just to make sure that light is stable and not to also get their goods spoiled, and it also making business men and women to be spending more and leave them with no choice than to be selling things at a higher price, so in this case they are not to be blame rather its the government, they are to be held responsible especially in this electricity case, they should try to provide electricity for us free of charge even if they rationing it, we don't have problem with that but let's just be having light to make things easier for everyone.
No be small problem wey this electricity matter dey cause for people business oo and true true na the government na dey really cause am because one thing I know Nigerians for be say dem no fail to comply for anything wey gats to do with their business especially when the thing go make their business dey well. Some business dey wey many peeps for start for the country wey involve constant electric but dat now don turn disadvantage for People to do am.

I still never dey fluent but I don see some newbies wey I pass but they still manage to do their thing with their heads up high so who am I not to do the same, I have seen that the more the I post and navigate the forum the more perfect my writing skills as practice makes perfect. In essence the message I dey try pass be say, if you want to be good at something you have to keep doing it regardless of how many times you have failed while doing it or regardless of the criticism you have gotten from friends. Never put yourself down that you are not good enough for anything.

For my understanding there is a reason why dem talk say Rome was not built in a day and this also applies to many principles of life because no be everytime wey person go actually sabi something na why the try again option dey for life. The reason why their is a difference between the successful people and the non success people for this life dey na because one particular set of person actually give up while the other no give up.

The score for the Brigton vs Man City match has now changed to 0-4. And yes, Man City has managed to ensure victory in this match. Phil Foden managed to score 2 goals and De Bruyne scored 1 goal at the start. And J.Alvarez also didn't want to be left behind and managed to score a goal in the 62nd minute. Now the match was almost over and there were only a few minutes left.

In the next match, Man City has an easier match, namely against Nottingham Forest. And I think in that match Man City will also score more than 1 goal. Meanwhile, Arsenal has a difficult match against Spurs. And yes, Spurs are one of the teams that is quite strong this season. So Arsenal's chance of winning is still 50:50. But Arsenal will try not to lose. Because they have to continue to defend their points so they don't lose them and so they can still see the opportunity to win the title.
If it's let for me I would have suggested that the trophy be given to Manchester city already becquerel guadiola is a man that knows the importance of advantage when he sees one and that is why they have always came out against the rest teams in the title race and even the whole premier league supported . Manchester city are going to win Nottingham fire by some good margins of goals.
