A lot of drama yesterday night in Milan game and I was watching only the second half which I admit it was extremely entertaining in the last part of it with all that mess that was created out of nowhere.

However today games are more interesting,we have to see if Roma will win against the last team in the standings or they will make a horrendous figure once again like they did at Genoa when they were totally destroyed.We have then in the last game,the main event Napoli playing at home against Fiorentina which is a good test for Napoli,Inter beat Fiorentina 4-0 so let's see what happens in this game,the odd is a bit low at 1.60 as Inter had 1.75-1.80 but I think it won't be easy at all for Napoli to win tonight.

PSG are still in 2nd place in Group F right now. I wasn't expecting to see this much especially after seeing how they were destroyed by Newcastle. I thought that maybe Milan would manage to win against Dortmund on one hand. But that game was quite boring in terms of having no goal in it.

I really don't know how much longer PSG will go on like this. I expected them to struggle and maybe even lose the game honestly.

However that 4-1 score at the end was unbelievable.  Sad  Mbappe looked really thoughtful. I think he would definitely leave the team at the end of the season if they go on like this.
Group F is indeed boring because it is filled with clubs that have almost equal strength, now all four clubs still have the same chance of qualifying for the round of 16. I think the third matchday will be very decisive, which will create a difference in points in the standings, hopefully Milan can score a goal in the match against PSG, and Dortmund can stop Newcastle progress so that Group F will be more competitive.

Before Mbappe leaves, Luis Enrique should maximize Mbappe potential in the remainder of his contract. I think it's natural that if Mbappe leaves and pursues his dream of winning the UCL with another club, it's impossible for PSG to do the same job to tempt Mbappe to stay at the club.

Newcastle I highly doubt that it will be stopped by any of these teams here,they made short work of PSG while PSG had beaten Dortmund which in turn draw the last game against Milan.The fact that Milan has not scored a single goal so far in this competition for me says a lot about them not being in the right form despite leading the Serie A in their local league.For me Newcastle will be the first of the group and most likely they will win against Dortmund while for Milan vs PSG game I don't have any idea of how the game will develop,most likely it will end in a draw.

Hey, I'm pretty impressed by your luck to hit those odds. True, the amount might not be super significant, but if you'd bet bigger, you could've walked away with a hefty chunk of change. But, you know, since it's a parlay, some folks say you're just tossing your money away. It's not really necessary to bet big, which makes it easier to climb back up and just pick another parlay and hope for the best.

In sport betting the real money is in the parlays.Yesterday I saw someone having hit a x437.5 odd ticket and the games had started since last week Champions League and ended yesterday night,it was one of those that it is called long haul run in parlays but it is also where the money is as that guy had bet about 0.5 Binance coin BNB so his winnings were substantial and really hefty chunk like you say.

So for me is not throwing money away,is trying to improve your amount of money but knowing that most of the times you will lose parlays and when you hit one big one it can make a difference like the one I described above.

Galatasaray got 3 points, it was not a very difficult game.
Mauro Icardi scored and assisted. This guy is really an incredible player. I think he is the best striker in the league. Galatasaray is very lucky to have this Icardi.

Of course him,ex Inter Milan striker together with Zaha ex Roma striker make a huge difference in a league like the Turkish Superlig and they are the most favored to win the title during the season.Of course strong competition is being thrown at them by a 0 error so far Fenerbahce which they will play today against Kasimpapa and I don't think they will suffer that much to get the three points in that game.

What I am surprised here is Besiktash who the management made clear that they didn't care much about European competitions and they were punting everything to win the league yet they are not the best performers here.

And yeah Max won the title and for me, this is the most boring season I can remember.
I think in the last decade I've missed around 10 GP, 5 are from this season.

There is no competition.


BTw Piastri is a great driver.

It is not Max fault,honestly I don't remember more boring seasons since the era of Schumacher at Ferrari as they had absolutely no competition while in this actual season at least we have seen some sort of it,Ferrari won a race,McLaren won a sprint race,in those seasons of Ferrari dominance no other team could win a race and even the team mate Barrichello when were winning some races the order from the team came,let Schumacher pass,never seen more boring team orders than these.Schumacher was near being Champion and nothing would have changed if they let Barrichello pass.

As for Piastri I think we can all agree it is a great driver,coming here in the debut season and winning something.

I just copied the above bet mate,sounds fun but I am really worried about Napoli form.While for the pool here it looks like they should be 4 money line results that favor the away teams,pretty difficult to come true especially in a league like the Premier League but I have got for that type of prediction in our pool.I was not at all in the top positions now I am just 6 or 7 points away from the 5th place in the pool,it is really funny how super fast things change in this pool.If I don't do well in these remaining games I may as well get to go 20 points down from that 5th place,that's how tight the pool is.

Very likely, yes.
I've selected him on 2nd spot in my Superbru prediction (again)  Lips sealed...

For me it is the first time that I put him I don't know where 5th or 6th in the Superbru prediction pool as I always used to place him second and so far until 3-4 races before he used to get that place while in these last races I have lost several points by choosing him second.

For today race I am sure if the race is held under normal conditions he stands absolutely no chance of coming second as the pace of the McLaren sounds much better than a Perez with a Redbull,he only has a chance if a lot of Safety Cars happen again like yesterday in the Sprint.
2028  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Motosport General discussion tread --- Formula1, MotoGP, WTCC, ETCC, DTM..... on: October 07, 2023, 09:08:06 PM
No one cares if Max won it on a Saturday or a Sunday,the good thing out of this is that he is the fiance of the daughter of Nelson Piquet who happen also to be the last driver on F1 to have won a F1 Championship on a Saturday,so just a good coincidence as for the rest we all knew who was the Champion of 2023 from a long long time ago.

The real news is that Piastri guy winning a race,a Sprint race but nevertheless a race and he is on his debut season,he has shown signs of great driving but today with that driving he showed that he really deserves the title at McLaren and most likely they at McLaren are preparing for a very good race tomorrow.

Never seen a more beautiful last 10-15 minutes including the additional time in Genoa vs Milan,first Milan with a late show goal from Pulisic then it comes the red card for the Milan goalkeeper and Milan could not bring in another goalkeeper as they had made all of their changes,so Giroud goes into the port,they have a great opportunity Genoa to hit with a free kick near the 16 meters area and it is a post,lucky Milan,then it comes a red card for Genoa goalkeeper who had come on to help his team on the attack,then another super hot occasion from Genoa but the hero of the game is the new goalkeeper of Milan,Giroud who knocked out a very dangerous action for goal.

Sevilla going from bad to worse in this beginning stage of La Liga and the things look pretty bad for them in the upcoming part of the remaining season,as they say the sun can be seen early in the morning.They are losing now at home 0-2 against Rayo Vallecano and I did bet on Rayo win or draw with an odd of 2.09 as I thought maximum a draw will be in this game.I never thought that Sevilla would be down 2 goals already before ending the first half and the game they are playing is not promising at all,they have lost it and they need a huge amount of motivation to at least draw in the second half.

So the big Inter Milan failing miserably once again when playing at home in front of their home fans,isn't that a great performance?That shows that Inter Milan are contemplated with themselves and they are starting underestimating their opponents and surely this is absolutely not the way to go.I am sure Milan will make a great use of such bad result from Inter and win their game,they can get to the top again I think,Juventus already did so by winning against Torino and with a great odd too,the same odd that Milan has and they need to win this.Let's see how it goes I bet quite some money into them now.

Real Madrid should win this game easily against Osasuna but I was seeing bets placed on Stake copy bets feature and 99% of the bets included Real Madrid.I don't think that means anything but usually when so many people bet on a single team they say brings a lot of bad luck,I don't give a f about such things as I am not superstitious so I have gone and put a lot of money on Madrid against a couple other easy games from other leagues with odds similar.In weekends I believe we either make it or the games break it for us,in the major leagues of Europe including Spain I hope we won't see surprise results as we have seen quite many of them in these couple of previous weeks.

I don't care much about the client seed,server seed,hash and all these things that make a casino claim they use a provable fair system,simply because in the casino where I play I trust them with my money and that is enough for me to trust them of what they say.

I of course have not participated in roll hunts except I use some sort of alike strategy to increase my VIP level but even that it is quite some time that I don't use it,I simply play my favorite games trusting the casino which I choose to play with and don't care much about superstitions or other things that honestly have got nothing to do with gambling,in gambling only LUCK is needed,if you have it your life can change for the better,if you don't and are not careful your life can change for the worse.

After Copenhagen beat United at home the logic will be clear  Grin I have a suspicion that besides the fact that United itself is weak, some of the players are already interested in changing the coach, so they  specifically are not trying to get good results. This theory is supported by the fact that the United management recently supported Ten Hag - I always see such statements when there is a conflict between the team and the coach.

And it's not just because 'it's at home'.  It's at Old Trafford and United rarely loses at Old Trafford especially vs more inferior squads.  It just shows that the club is as in shambles today as it was after Ferguson left.  I think in hindsight it would've been better for them to have stuck with Moyes for a couple more years for stability before looking for a high profile manager.  I think stability was what Ferguson had in mind when he earmarked Moyes to be his replacement.  Moyes did have decent results at Everton at the time.

As for the pool I'm happy where I'm at.  I could've been a couple of notches higher if I didn't miss one day of picks.  :/

It seems to me that even with Solskjaer, United would be doing better, especially if the owners listened to his wishes regarding transfers. He recently said that he offered to buy Haaland, Rice, Bellingham and Caicedo, but his wishes were not heard. Moreover, this was when the price for Haaland’s transfer was only 4.5 million euros (LOL). Solskjaer was able to discern talent and a great future in these players, but unfortunately he was not allowed to realize this.

It seems that Manchester United management have made big errors especially regarding Haaland with that ridiculous amount of 4.5 million euros and they got Ten Haag which since he came he had his own ideas which have not at all been translated to a successful Manchester United so far.

For me any other coach would have been better than Ten Haag,a coach would listen to the players more and change or adapt to their necessities to play like the players want,I have seen a couple of Manchester United games and honestly I am not impressed at all by the quality of the team which has not yet a super star striker,they miss one really badly here.

Does anybody know where I can find Perez's starting positions (or qualifying results) in one place (page) for the whole season?

He was horrible again in quailfiers, only decent in practice, I feel that guy is such an underachiever.
Crazy to say that about the 2nd best driver this season, but I feel literally anyone else would be 50+ points closer to Verstappen.

With the same car absolutely there are quite some great drivers here,much better than Perez and they are Hamilton,Norris,Piastri (yes even a rookie can be better than him) Russell,Sainz and Leclerc to name a few.I am sure that these drivers would have put a much higher pressure on Verstappen and the point difference would not be that huge.

Hamilton has already said that if I were in the same team with him,Verstappen would not be laughing that much like he does knowing he has Perez,the most mediocre driver as a team mate.I don't know where to find all those results in one page but in Superbru app and in the pool you can see any round I believe by clicking on them.

It was a amazing night for us but a nightmare for Manchester United fans. Football is such a game. Manchester United have loss 2 of 2 matches in Champion League. If they do not have a better performance in the Copenhagen matches, they may say goodbye to the European Champion League this season.

I think it was normal that they lost against Bayern Munich. It was a surprise that they lost against us. It happened once, so the surprise is also normal. But if we face another surprise result against Copenhagen, the danger bells will start ringing for Erik ten Hag. And in that case nobody can defend him. But I think they will beat Copenhagen because they have to beat Copenhagen. Sometimes there are technical and tactical problems, but games like this increase everyone's concentration. The game against Copenhagen is one of those games. I think Manchester United will win Copenhagen and focus on the rematch in Istanbul. They don't have many chances now. They have to be careful.

Copenhagen scored first in the game against Bayern and Bayern reacted well,I don't know if we see the same situation and if Manchester United will be under despite them playing again at home like they did against Galatasaray,in this game they need to score first and to keep scoring.Of course this is highly achievable as Copenhagen is the weakest team of the group and if Manchester fails against them too if they don't sack Ten Haag then I don't know what to say they will go from bad to worse not only in the Champions League but also in the Premier League.

Verstappen didn't surprise anyone by his high performance in qualifying today. However I won't be able to say the same thing for Perez and Sainz. These two both failed really hard as they couldn't make it to Q3. People must be used to seeing Perez being disqualified in Q2. He was really bad the race in Suzuka as well you know.

Perez is still in the 2nd position in the driver standings right now though. But he needs to do a better work in the remaining races to be able to keep his position until the end of the season. Because there is a gap like 33 points between him and Hamilton. This can really be closed by Hamilton if Perez goes on inconsistent.

Yeah,at least I got the pole position right and starting with 3 points on Sunday from EBP 2 and one from the pole sitter.For the pool though I have gone for some pretty drastic changes in my picks as I have made completely different choices,they are the same drivers that I usually choose for top ten but I have completely put them in random spots so I doubt I will get any good substantial amount of points during this race of tomorrow.

Perez made an error,Sainz made an error and costed them the qualifying,in the Q3 also almost all drivers made errors even Verstappen who the second effort he failed and got back to the garage,Hamilton made errors and a few others.

Based on that I think that the race of tomorrow will be interesting as most likely a lot of drivers will make errors who may cost them a lot.

It is Juventus vs Torino game during this weekend in Italy,it is the Turin derby as they call it and the odd of Juventus 1.91 sounds really interesting.This odd of course is not because of the not best shape of Juventus or that Torino is in a good shape this season but only because it is a derby game and anything can happen in such games,sometimes when a derby has been played between the first team against the last,the last team on the standings have won sometimes.

I think we should all take profit from this big odd of Juventus as I think Juventus will not have much problems in beating Torino despite this being a derby game,that 1.91 for Juventus at home is a really big one that we rarely see given to a team like them.

Sheffield United remains to be the only newly promoted team to the English Premier League without a win this season, and I think the bad performance of Sheffield United will continue when they play against Fulham. I guess Fulham should be able to keep a clean sheet and beat Sheffield United today.

Most likely Sheffield United will lose today but I don't know if they will not be able to score a goal against Fulham,they may really well do that.The problem with this team is that them together with Luton who got a win against Everton,are not "upgraded",they have not made some really good buys of some good players to be able to keep up with the Premier League standard.Maybe it was their budget small but that is a limiting factor in the Premier League and one team I am sure now will not be safe from relegating in the Championship again this season is exactly Sheffield United.

Take it or leave it, some part of me still want to make free money from gambling, even when I don't gamble every day, and while I am a very cautious gambler.

Some people are trying to hide behind the cotton, stating that they are gambling for the fun of it, I will like to ask them this question if I can get them to answer.

Is there any spirit of good will when you intentionally give your money away in order to just have a good time gambling?

Because taking money away from gambling simply makes the game not worth playing.

Will you still participate if money is not involved? Many people will easily quit if all casinos are to be turned into no-money games, isn't it?

Money is still the real reasons why we gamble, been addicted or not, mutual greed or not, all gambling is done to make more money or get some form of reward in the end.


Most likely yes but there are people who are using some sort of casino add on which is SocialTournaments website that tries to promote Pragmatic Play slot machines,you can play there for free and win real cash money,many people use this as a way to stop gambling addiction from slot machines.

Except these people many would quit as those who are stating we are playing for the fun of it most likely as you say are hiding behind it as in the end of the day everybody is gambling to win money.
