I think people who gamble are very well aware of the risks of gambling.  So I don't see any opportunity to convince them again about the risk.  And not everyone can be successful with a tight budget management because gambling addiction keeps everyone from his normal thinking. Due to which they do not mind their gambling losses, they always think that they will win gambling and recover their previous losses. This is why gamblers suffer most of the time. And this responsibility has to be taken entirely by them because they started gambling by accepting the risk

tell the gambler before they get addicted. If you are addicted, the effects will be difficult to bear. they are aware of the risks, but if they are unable to exercise control, of course, they need someone else to do it.
like when you gamble accompanied by your friends. and when you take the initiative to make another deposit when you experience a losing streak. but there is a friend of yours who reminds you to do it another time. it's because today we are unlucky. we can try it tomorrow.
That's a simple thing to at least prevent gamblers who are at least not too heavily addicted. or even those who are new to gambling.

Osimhen's absence means a lot to Napoli indeed.  Sad  I totally forgot about the AFCON. Osimhen is also going there which means Napoli attacking line will be much weaker than now. Napoli have already been experiencing big difficulties in maintaining a good form. They couldn't beat Monza for example in which Osimhen didn't play as he wasn't in the squad.

A really tough time period is waiting for Napoli in short. Their defensive side is already weak and they will have more difficulty in making up for that by scoring more goals while Osimhen isn't in the squad for a while.

I can't imagine how Napoli play without Osimhen even with Osimhen in the Napoli team not yet able to compete with other top teams lol, I didn't expect to see Napoli in the 8th place this week even though we knew who was the Serie A champion last season, changes occur so fast even in just a few months and even more sad Napoli could not get a place in the Champions League zone. We still remember Napoli scored 77 goals last season but in the middle of this season Napoli only scored 28 goals, this means that we clearly see a decline in goals activities. I'm not sure Napoli need a new striker because they already have it it's just that hope is too high from the results.

not only without Osimhen, Politano is also not in the team. and that made Napoli's attack line very directionless. This made fans doubt the tactics used by Mazzarri. Napoli's performance seems to continue to decline. and nothing motivates players to get better.
I'm sure some of the good players who are currently supporting the Napoli squad could leave Napoli. Osimhen probably regrets not accepting offers from several big European clubs in the transfer market last summer.

I agree with you on that,  our inability to control the desire to gamble more is the core addictions that we are talking about,  some time it good to check yourself and see if you are actually gambling right because once there is the inability to control your gambling excesses it becomes bad for the whole community since gambling addictions and it impacts rob on all and not just one person.  That is why is better to have an established pattern of play while gambling so as not over-dependent on it to the point that it could become an addiction.

To be honest, I personally still don't know the clear boundaries between ordinary gamblers and addicted gamblers. Can those who come every day to gamble even if it is a small amount also be called addicted?
Or is the limit the effect of gambling itself which results in the gambler's financial loss and can also involve other people?
whatever the gambling game, whether it is a slot game or sports betting, all types of gambling games provide a special enjoyable effect on gamblers. That often makes gamblers forget the boundaries of what gamblers don't want to do.

Liverpool has a vast of experience in Europe and you can’t compare to that of Leverkusen because it’s pretty was less and Leverkusen just started achieving European success of recent. Most of Liverpool current squad of players have tasted European finals twice and that’s a plus to the team. Yes, they suffered defeat twice but one interesting thing about those defeats is that they rested most of their player because they’ve already secured top spot already and are sure to qualify.

On paper Liverpool are much better and more experienced but this time Leverkusen came in a different way they underwent several competencies with perfect results of course this is worth considering and after my observations both teams are still at the same level this season. Oh yes, several teams have just come to this competition through the Champions League I mean the clubs that were eliminated in the Champions League will take their place here, such as Milan, Benfica and Galatasaray do they have a chance here?

Milan and Galatasaray eliminated from the champions league for being in the hell group and for experience there is no need to doubt obviously they have it
With the arrival of these new clubs, the strength in the European League will change maybe the champion candidate is here, who knows.

This will be quite visible when the division of matches has been determined. We'll see which teams will qualify for the play-off match, as well as which teams they will meet in the next round. If Milan meets Liverpool or Leverkusen at the start, this match will not be interesting. I want to see strong teams in the final round. it will be a great attraction for fans who will rate the Europa League final as like the UCL.
26  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do not gamble with Loan Money~otherwise you will be in danger like me on: December 24, 2023, 06:27:35 AM

I just read that you are going to gamble, and then I read that the money you are going to use here is from a loan, which is wrong for me. Because in the first place, if I look at it, the money you borrowed has already been dissolved, because we always say to play at your own risk or do what you can afford to lose.

This means that we know very well that the chances of us winning or getting the gambling jackpot are remote because we also know very well that these casinos are often places where money is wasted, and then we end up in debt to gamble here. Right?

The gambler who want to gamble using the loan money can stop the gambling at the initial stage.Because loan is like the repeated habit,it doesn’t matter the gambler to use the loan for the gambling or for the regular monthly expenses.If the gambler had loss the first game in the gambling,he will take the continuous game in the gambling site.Because the gambler will try to recover the loss from the gambling site and again.But we know the gambler can’t get the money back from the gambling site in the short period.It take huge time from the recovery.

However, if he has borrowed, it means he is gambling beyond the limits of his money. if you don't control that, then the situation will be very bad for the gambler's finances.
This is a very risky decision. the biggest possibility is multiple losses. whatever guarantee is given, it is better not to give loans or lend money to such gamblers. in the end, there will be problems.
27  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: December 23, 2023, 09:44:08 AM
Bayern Munich will be looking forward to closing the gap between them and Leverkusen.They are the only team to challenge Leverkusen so seriously for the Bundesliga tittle.The both sides have thesame scoring abilities,but with the fact that Harry Kane is in Bayern,they tend to get more goals,but most of their goals come from only Kane who had been prolific so far this season.He has broken the record that Haaland kept for the number of games played in 20 goals scored.I knew very well that Kane will do well in Bundesliga,and I said it then,that  he was going to be the highest goal scorer in his first season.

Kane might be even more productive. but clearly, I just don't expect last season's situation to happen again. when Munich won the trophy with a goal difference victory over Dortmund who had dominated from the start.
The situation might happen again when Munich manages to continue to maintain the point difference with Leverkusen. but we will see how Leverkusen's consistency will continue or whether they will encounter problems next year.
We still can't map out the strengths, but only these two teams may compete for the trophy this season.
28  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Success or Fail? - Talking about Gambling as a major income on: December 23, 2023, 08:37:11 AM
The percentage of people who succeed from gambling is very small. A person being successful in gambling is like a person winning the lottery. Those who are lucky in gambling will be successful. Failure always comes to those who think gambling will be their primary source of income. There will be no stable income in this game. Gambling is not as easy to make money as they think. When you are not addicted to gambling, that is also a commendable success. In your free time, you should only gamble a little and consider it an entertaining game. If you're lucky, you'll earn some rewards.  It's a reward, not the main income.

In fact, winnings (especially in a row) make gamblers think that making money from casinos is easier than having to work as usual. that's what makes gamblers end up gambling every day and spending some of their money which makes them addicted.
the situation will get worse if it continues. it could be financially damaging if he doesn't immediately realize that the gambling he is doing is not good.

I cant believe how Real Madrid ended up winning the yesterday game against Alaves... Alaves had all in their hands with one men more since the very early phase of the game, but they ended up losing in the last minute, huge win for Real Madrid because earlier Girona draw aginst Betis.
There is no need to be surprised by the match results obtained by Real Madrid because Deportivo Alaves is a promoted team in La Liga whose strength is very different from the strongest team in La Liga, namely Real Madrid. So it is not surprising that Real Madrid was able to win the away match even though they were short of players, even with just one goal at the end of the match. Meanwhile, Real Betis is indeed a fairly strong team this season so it is normal for them to be able to draw with Girona, who have often appeared impressive in La Liga this season.

What is surprising is Madrid's narrow victory. they are a strong team regardless of the lack of players in the second half. but in the first half, what did they do? There are still big names in the squad, even though they didn't play as well as when they beat Villarreal.
even the saving goal that Madrid got at the end of the match. it was a surprise for all fans and observers. Madrid is not used to playing like that.

I think right club for Victor Osimhen if want to play with Premier League is Liverpool or Arsenal, both teams have good potential compete on the top position and seems next season Liverpool get opportunity for playing in Champion League than Chelsea with inconsistency performance and their current standing outside from top fourth.

Both Arsenal and Liverpool would be the right club for Osimhen. Liverpool have Salah and Nunez. There the competition for the starting 11 might be a bit tougher for him. In fact, Salah has been great this season but he is getting older and has astronomical offers from Arabia. Maybe Osimhen can take his place in the coming years. On the other hand, Arsenal have become a completely different team with Mikel Arteta. I think it's every striker's dream to play for Mikel Arteta's Arsenal. Also, I think clubs like Chelsea and Manchester United are the clubs that can interrupt the career of players like Osimhen.

In terms of competition in the team to get better playing time, maybe Liverpool will be quite difficult for Osimhen. unless Liverpool will sell some of its front players. and it is a good place for Osimhen.
Meanwhile, at Arsenal, there is also Gabriel Jesus who I am sure will not be easy for Arteta to choose or play both in different positions.
but Osimhen is still a talented young player. many teams would like to sign him if Napoli were willing to sell him. but I'm sure it won't be cheap. Osimhen has quality.
31  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: December 22, 2023, 02:38:35 PM
Aston Villa is only 1 point behind Arsenal at the top of the points table. We never imagined seeing this team at the top of the table. Villa have lost three matches this season and drawn only two. If Aston Villa can win against Sheffield United in today's match, they have a chance to take the top spot in the points table for the first time this season.

Aston Villa's past record against Sheffield United is not good. Aston Villa have won just one of their last 5 matches against Sheffield. And lost in two matches. And so the players of Aston Vulla have to play very carefully in today's match. Although Sheffield United have been in a very weak position this season, Aston Villa are likely to lose points if they make any mistakes.
Upcoming match Aston Villa have weakness team opponent against Sheffield United and get potential three points will make Aston Villa close to second or top position standing depend Liverpool vs Arsenal match result will give benefit for Aston Villa move to the top standings. Left one points behind Liverpool automatically Aston Villa will lead top position for one day later because they have early match between Arsenal and Liverpool match.
Aston Villa performed quite well when playing at home and successfully achieved 8 wins of 8 home matches this season. Of course, the big opportunity for Aston Villa to rise to first place is quite wide open and Aston Villa's first achievement is in the top standings in the Premier League.
This season Aston Villa is part of the competition for the Premier League trophy. Teams like United and Tottenham seem to be experiencing problems this season which makes it a bit difficult for them to enter the competition.
This season Man City experienced several unexpected problems. The difference is still not much, but they certainly still hope that Liverpool and Arsenal will catch up with the declining game.
32  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you regret also for ever knowing about gambling? on: December 21, 2023, 02:24:18 PM
Yeah you read the question correctly.

I got this taught while involved in discussion with some of my friend today, it was round of friends and we were practically catching up after some old memories in high school so discussion led to discussion and the issue of regretting to ever knowing how to gamble came up and believe me it was a very serious issue as one of my friend was practically blaming the other for the whole problem is currently going through right now as he constantly gambles his money away and at what avail? was the question being asked to the friend who actually inviting him to a gambling house during highschool. The matter looks childish  at first because the whole table of friends there were all gamblers including myself but we all never reached the height of complaining or blaming someone for our gambling ethics.

So I was wondering if some folks here too feel the same way or it was just a matter of grudge and hatred for the particular fellow to stir up such arguement.
No. I never regretted informing myself about gambling. I have always taken this game as entertainment. I have won all of the few bets I have participated in by entering wins. I have always used sports betting sites mainly for gambling so I bet on matches that are guaranteed to win. Currently I am completely free from gambling. I will participate in gambling whenever I want because I have always taken gambling as entertainment. If I had become addicted to gambling and lost money from this gambling, I might have felt sorry for myself.

regret only belongs to those who are pressured to always win at gambling. and those who make gambling their income. so they will regret it if they lose in gambling because they wasted money that they could have used for other things.
Cases like yours are of course different. you gamble for fun. So there will be no regrets when spending some of your money on gambling.
nevertheless, we have to admit, that more and more gamblers today are very obsessed with winning. and that is what is being pursued. so it can cause pressure and stress when you can't achieve it.

I don't want to see football as any sort of movie, like how or why would Napoli lose to a club that's not even healthy in the league table? This is so embarrassing I must say because on a normal day Napoli would make life a living hell for the away team like why on earth did they have to lose, not 1nil but 4-nil?
Is it that they're experiencing fatigue or what? Still confused I must say.
If Napoli continue like this I don't see them advancing into the next round in the champions league and they might not even qualify in any Europe competitions next season. As it is, I can't tell if they're inform or not.

Maybe the coach took the match too lightly. The 3 main attackers who usually have a place in the lineup did not play from the start. maybe that was Napoli's first mistake.
Oshimhen, Politano, and Kvaratskhelia became substitutes. Napoli tried to catch up but the situation was quite difficult when the opponent had adopted a more closed game.
coaches must be wiser if they want to rotate their players. At least they have to work hard to be in the top 4 of the standings. it will keep them in European competition next season.
34  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: December 20, 2023, 04:33:14 AM
The dominance of the Spain teams during this UCL has been surprising, with half of the groups being won by them, however the performance by Real Madrid seems to be a few steps ahead of the rest and only Manchester City was able to match it, so it seems to me both of those teams are the favorites to face each other on the final, unless they are really unlucky and they happen to face each other earlier on the competition due to the quarterfinal or the semifinal draw.
Representatives from the Spanish League are still quite dominant in the Champions League this season and they managed to send three teams into the round of 16, Real Sociedad will face PSG, Atletico Madrid will face Inter Milan and Real Madrid will face Leipzig. Of the three representatives, only Real Madrid has a much greater chance of qualifying for the next round because they face much lighter opponents, while the other two representatives will face fairly even opponents so it is still quite difficult to predict.

The composition of the matches in the round of 16 gives a little insight into Real Madrid and Manchester City and I think both of them will have a much greater chance of qualifying for the next round. But the most interesting match is between Inter Milan vs Atletico Madrid because this match will be much more tense because both of them have the ambition to beat each other to qualify for the next round.

The Champions League will take a long break. and all team conditions can still change. The current top 16 are strong teams that will be difficult to predict. even a team that is predicted to have difficulties can provide a surprise. like Barca and Napoli, the situation may favor Barcelona. That's because Napoli's performance is unstable this season. but in the knockout match, each team will give their best.
The road to the top 8 of the Champions League doesn't look like there will be any luck. This will be hard work from every team. This will be quite a long break, we have to be patient.

What it is happening to Manchester City?

Are they scared for the incoming penalization?

Manchester city seems to be somehow confused in some of their current past matches because I see no reason why an experienced team like Manchester city will take the lead in a match and at the end their opponents come from behind and equalized their goals like they weren't like this looking back at some weeks ago so I don't actually know what changed in their game but whatever it is I believe they will sort out themselves soon as it's really sad to see a team like Manchester city that has been dominating the Premier League to be facing challenges of winning some of their matches recently but however they will get back to form soon.
It looks like Man City will find it difficult to repeat their success last season. his current performance suddenly decreased. don't know for sure but it looks like it started when facing Chelsea with a score of 4-4. something is missing from Man City's midfield and defense. or maybe the opponent has started to easily anticipate Pep's strategy. they still dominate the match but they concede very often too.
There is still time to catch up on the points difference. but it depends on how quickly they wake up and give their best again.
36  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Importance of Gambling to the society on: December 17, 2023, 02:12:18 AM
I understand why there are several countries that legalize gambling apart from high taxes and the money goes into the pockets of the government itself to be spent within the territory of the country itself so that anyone can benefit from gambling not just the casino owners or gamblers themselves.
and I agree like that what you said, every society can definitely feel the mutual benefit if they are able to think logically, but for some countries that do not allow gambling and it is illegal, they think that gambling can have a bad impact on society. Indeed, by legalizing gambling, government will large taxes through these sites, but they not only thinking about the profits, even with large taxes, they also think about the impact that will be had in the future, especially poor people who are getting poorer due gambling and rich people who are getting richer and teenagers who are starting to get to know the site so they gamble openly, Every government has its own regulations and we as a society must accept whatever regulations are applied in our own government.
I think the government is still banning gambling because it considers the economy and human resources. If the majority of people's economies are still not strong or still low, of course legalizing gambling will only create economic problems in their country.
because the economy is not yet good and games can also be addictive, this will put tremendous pressure on gamblers which could end up having a negative impact on the environment.
So when their society is not ready, it would be better to ban or restrict gambling regulations in a country.

A lot of them seem to be hastily assembled clone sites with very little effort put in and gimmicky marketing. Do you guys have any thoughts on this... plague?
Several online casino sites do have almost the same interface. I don't think it's boring. or several types of games that are the same. Maybe it's from the same developer or a scammer trying to make a profit. but not all of them are scammers. But you need to be careful when choosing a new casino.

perhaps recently more online gamblers have accessed new slot sites. the reason is because on other sites they don't get good spin bonuses or their luck runs out on other sites and they decide to look for a new slot site. I'm not sure if it's a scam or not, but some do have almost the same interface.

The Gladbach vs Werder Bremen match had to end with the same score of 2-2. It seems that Gladbach's victory had to be delayed because they failed to maintain their lead until the match was over and yes, this meant the two teams only shared 1 point. Even though initially Werder Bremen took a quick lead in the 7th minute through a goal scored by Borre, this didn't last long because Gladbach immediately turned things around with two short braces from Reitz which were scored at the end of the first half and also the start of the second half.

Unfortunately, as I said before, Gladbach's lead couldn't last long because Werder Bremen scored the equalizer in the 76th minute which was scored by Ducksch. This result means both teams only moved up one ranking from their previous position.
the two of them played quite evenly. apart from the same score, they played almost the same game. Gladbach tried to win, but their luck didn't happen in that match.
I don't know what the analysis of those who bet on this match is. Maybe someone thought Gladbach would win easily. but both are teams of equal strength. a draw should not disappoint either of them.

I don't think it's because of being a gambler before why he ended up establishing such initiative and events.

It's because he truly love the game and being a gambler is just a part of it. But deep inside, that interest in checkers leads still in him and to enjoy the moment, he organized competitions. It's the same as those famous sports individuals that after retiring, still doing some things related to their activities in their prime.

Best examples are Michael Jordan of basketball, organizing basketball clinics and competition, Manny Pacquiao of boxing, builds boxing gyms and hosting some local game event related to boxing and many other famous sports celebrity.

Adding to that, looks like that man is really well-off and can afford to spend on that yearly event.

because something that is done based on a hobby or pleasure will provide satisfaction for the person doing it.
no matter what form of gambling or game is competed. if that was part of what he enjoyed doing in his youth, it would certainly be possible to create a competition in which people with the same enjoyment as him would participate.
Prizes have bonuses, and the fun of playing and meeting more people who have the same fun is the goal.

Benzima missing penalty wasn't really enough to put the blame for them losing that match to Al Ahly because even if he scored the penalty the score would have been 3:2 so it really doesn't make any difference moreover players sometimes misses penalties so him missing a penalty isn't a big deal. Referring to Al Ahly as an inferior club means you don't follow up Egyptian league if not you would have known that Al Ahly and Zamalek mostly dominate the Egyptian league so if not for high rated players like Benzema I see no reason why Al Ahly strength can't be matched up with Al Ittihad of Saudi Arabia.
Al Ahly is not a weak team. it's just that I'm sure more people are betting on Ittihad winning, they sound more popular.
It's not a problem that Benzema failed to score from a penalty. but if it had been a goal the match situation would have been different. and that could affect the result of the match, Ittihad could have been stronger after equalizing the score.
but the conditions allowed Al Ahly to win. they are strong enough to beat Ittihad and I think Benzema and the team must be aware of the strength of their opponents.
