2021  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: January 12, 2023, 02:26:54 PM
Fulham vs Chelsea,



The odds look to Fulham maybe because playing as host and the performance is better by winning 3 matches in a row, while Chelsea is very unstable after transitioning a coach. Maybe Chelsea need a supply spirit from Newcastle who have team which not better from them. Several player like Aubameyang is still injury while Mount is not underperformance yet, so I think hard for Chelsea, but still have chance to winning with at least 1 different goal.
Even at that that Fulham is playing home club the odds shouldn't be in favour of Fulham for whatever reason, may be bookmakers are want to use Chelsea recent results to judge their overall performance and becoming over confident in Chelsea.

Fulham is way ahead of Chelsea on the league table and also even with recent results Fulham still play better so I am going to give Fulham straight winning for this match.

before losing to Manchester City. Chelsea also appeared quite disappointing in the match against Nottingham forest. because even Nottingham forest could hold Chelsea to a draw in that match. coupled with a series of defeats Chelsea by Manchester city. so it's only natural that in the match against Fullham, Chelsea is not too favored. But if we look at the history of Fullham vs Chelsea meetings. then we can see that Chelsea always wins matches against Fullham. so for me the Fullham vs Chelsea match is more likely to get a draw.
Chelsea's appearance in the last 8 matches in the Premier League has been very disappointing and currently Graham Potter's team has dropped to 10th in the standings while Fullham is ranked 7th, and with a difference of 3 ranks in the current standings it is certain that Fullham is better than Chelsea.
Can Chelsea win the West London derby against Fulham, although in the second meeting the Chelsea team can be superior but now the situation of the two teams is very different and Fullham is currently better than Chelsea.
2022  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is it becoming a thread for casinos refusing paying very huge winnings? on: January 12, 2023, 08:37:41 AM
I came across a topic recently now on this very thread about a casino refusing to pay a woman ber jackpot winnings of over £35.4m and if you'll agree me that, this isn't a little sum of money to just ignore.
She won only $2.25, not £35.4m according to the New York State Gaming Commission.

Quote
The New York State Gaming Commission said Bookman’s machine had malfunctioned, and that she'd actually won just $2.25 (£1.86).

Despite all of that, I think she deserved more than dinner. The casino owners should have at least given her a few thousand dollars because after all the fault was from their side.

True, women should get more out of dinner, even if the dinner is very lavish, not worth what women get. Because the error lies with the casino, and the casino should notify or attach a written note for information, that the casino machine is damaged or cannot be used.
even if it is actually a big or small win, the user is not to blame and whatever the reason if it is the fault of the casino if it does not want its reputation to be tarnished.
2023  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is the $17,000+ bitcoin price breakout benchmark to new price direction on: January 11, 2023, 03:57:41 PM
If we become so excited at this point, what happens when we reach the 20k to 25k market price which is very much expected before the halving cycle that is somewhere around 2024?
Anyways it's not bad to point out any significant movement in price and bitcoin reaching 17k at this moment and that os something we should be grateful for that and except much more market changes that will favour most investors that bought Bitcoin at its lowest price during the bear market around 16k. In the best possible spirit,  this should be a time to buy more Bitcoin and not to cash out the dust profits that have been accrued from thos present price increases.
The increase in bitcoin to 17K is a good thing and I hope that the price of bitcoin does not return to 16K, because at the moment the price of bitcoin is still struggling to move above the 17K price area and it is hoped that this area will now become a support that will determine the price of bitcoin will continue to rise gradually .
and currently the bitcoin price is still a good option to collect more bitcoin before the bitcoin price goes up, and if the bitcoin price returns to 16K price there is no need to worry and keep buying for the long term.
2024  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2022/23 Season on: January 11, 2023, 02:18:20 PM

Both are in different performance. When talking about favorites, I prefer Barcelona to win the match. The match results achieved by Barcelona in the domestic league are in a good position. Even though this cannot ensure the final result, from the attack, Barcelona's goal productivity is superior than MU. Hopefully this can be a good provision for Barcelona and get full points.
Yes, maybe we will say that when we see Barcelona now. But on the other hand, Erik Ten Hag, with all his strategies, succeeded in bringing Manchester United more solidly in defense, and also they have started to be better productive in scoring goals. If Xavi Hernandez isn't smart enough to read Manchester United's gameplay then Barcelona might lose a place in the last 16. Once again I say that it is very difficult to predict who will win in this match.
Barcelona has a better h2h record against Manchester united even in some seasons when man united has had good performances in domestic leagues, So we shouldn't be concluding that Manchester United will win over Barcelona in this season's Europa league just because they are doing well in EPL. moreover, Barcelona isn't performing poorly in La Liga. I think when the time comes, it will only take the team with a lucky game plan to win the match. Let's not draw our conclusions based on their present performances.
If you look at the history of the meetings between the two teams, indeed Barcelona has better capital because they always win, while Manchester United loses more often when they meet Barcelona.
but we can't compare with the previous meetings because everything has changed a lot, especially the players and coaches who will make the game different from before. And it will be a very exciting match because both are in top form and also have good results at the end of matches in all competitions, especially at Manchester United.

Everyone must feel the same way and especially those who have been in this industry for a long time, and no one would have thought that at that time the price of bitcoin would be even higher.
and i am judging this out of greed but doing it in a very profitable position and being seduced by fantastic profit values or maybe a new and amazing experience that makes me feel the urge to sell for fear that the price will drop again or disappear, which is actually a good start for get a higher price.
but all of that will be a good experience and lesson for the future, that the price of bitcoin will continue to increase even though there are always decreases because long-term bitcoin is a very absolute choice and will not disappoint as long as patience and faith are still there.

2027  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are the motives that drive you to gamble? on: January 10, 2023, 10:06:31 AM
If you see gambling as a means of making money you will keep losing because you will keep going back to try your luck, I like gambling too but I play with less money and enjoy the game, I never have the mind of playing to win but I play to only have some fun so my betting skills is always on the minimum amount.
I think your statement is still not quite right, because there are still many gamblers who really rely on gambling as a place where they can make a profit.
But not all gamblers can do it, only those who have more money and intelligence in gambling.
I myself have met poker gamblers several times who are indeed experts in the game of poker, even in almost every game he wins and the percentage loses only slightly.
If you gamble or bet just as a means of fun I salute you for still being able to limit the amount you bet and not get really crazy about gambling.

We have to understand this kind of decision whereby a gambler solely depends his living from earnings from gambling, such gamblers aren't new in gambling, they understand very well every possible mean they can source out money from with gambling, here they don't have to gambles even at all times, they may be employed under a gambling company to work for them and got paid, they may have one or two services or predictions they aid in other to make money, while some even went ahead advertising for them to get paid, as long as you make some earnings through gambling for a living isn't a bad decision provided you know all possible means to make a living from your decision.
Yes of course. many gamblers make a living by gambling and also many people who love to gamble and they choose gambling and playing cards as their profession, and they are successful, and they make money.
but they are very different from ordinary gamblers, and by the way they gamble, they can control the game, not the game controlling them. And also they will stop when they are in a winning position, not keep playing because they know it's a trap that will make them lose.
2028  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How profitable it is possible to invest in bitcoins in the new year 2023. on: January 10, 2023, 04:12:17 AM

From the title of the topic you write, I could guess that you are new in the bitcoin market and a new investor, yet that's too soon to say how 2023 will be because most of us don't even have any information about what's going to happen even in a few weeks and until today just 10 days passed from the year of 2023, so we cannot say anything about it yet. but from what we saw during these years depending on how you aim every year can be profitable for investing on bitcoin if you are aiming for the long term.
I am not ready to invest for a long time right now.  Currently I have some money with which I trade to make some more money and then prepare to buy and hold bitcoins for the long term. I think buying bitcoins at present is definitely profitable but I need to be patient enough.  But I don't have that much patience right now so I want to invest in Altcoin with a small amount first. And later invest some profit from here in Bitcoin for long time.

Do you think altcoins will be profitable, and do you know for the most part that the movement of altcoins will depend on the movement of bitcoin, and if bitcoin doesn't go up, neither will altcon.
the best in my opinion, you still buy bitcoin within your means even in small amounts, and if you do it gradually and regularly your bitcoins will become a lot and aim for the long term. And also buy with money that you can afford to lose, but it's all up to you, maybe you know which atlcoin is profitable according to you without following the movement of bitcoins, that's your right.
2029  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Many signals don't work now like they use to be on: January 10, 2023, 04:00:19 AM
It depends but it is best to learn how to trade on your own, because if the signal provider fails you will fail too and vice versa. But if you learn how to trade, you can make decisions based on yourself.
and in my opinion the best trading signal is the trader's mind after the trader has sufficient knowledge, experience, the right risk reward ratio, as well as hands and couch training that can keep traders on track to improve skills to become professional traders. Even the professional ones sometimes don't work because nothing is 100% perfect and it is up to the market situation to determine if it is the right time to trade or vice versa.
2030  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is hodling top 10 Marketcap coins a good tactic? on: January 09, 2023, 07:47:25 PM
We are still in a bear market and we still don't know if the remaining top altcoins will keep their position, Solana and FTT are out I believe but that doesn't mean you can't make profits off them but I can bet that new altcoins will take over top 20 incoming bull market, it always happens in every bull market.

For me I prefer looking for the new gems that can take over top 10 to top 20 in the future, crypto is not perfect yet and something better will always come up to take the lead over the old projects.
That's the problem with this calculation. First of all, back in the day we didn't had stablecoins, so if you hold them there are two possibilities, either they will worth what they worth today in 10 years (not same value but same price) or they will be zero, no middle ground. If you take those out, rest of them are in a bear market right now and make no sense at all.

I mean you could trust the top 10 and buy them all and hope that there is a bull run and they all go up, but that doesn't mean that ALL top 10 will go up, some of them may crash a bit, or not go up as much as the others and drop. This is why calculating it right now will not give any good results at all, we need time.
Of course the top 10 coins won't go up all at once, but as long as you do it long term and patiently wait for the few coins that haven't gone up. And it's all just a matter of time, at least you benefit from the initial price you buy.
as each coin you own will have a different return, some go up significantly and some get stuck halfway due to some unpredictable factors. And the most important thing is that you can do a good analysis and also choose the right coin and profit when the market is bullish. And it also depends on how much capital you invest in each coin, especially in some of the coins that actually give you very satisfying returns.
2031  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: January 09, 2023, 05:09:05 PM
I am still very confident that Arsenal will continue in top gear until the end of the season. I know the league is a tough one and very competitive especially when you have Manchester City coming at you, Arsenal can’t risk dropping a point because City can take advantage of the situation. It seems Arsenal has it under control. Manchester City humiliated Chelsea again today is very shameful because after losing to Manchester City in the EPL I expected Chelsea to retaliate and get a win but that wasn't the case and they got humiliated again.
The London derby against Tottenham Hotspur is very decisive for them to stay at the top because winning results is a target that Arteta must achieve to continue to stay away from Manchester City who will also play the Manchester derby match.

Arsenal before travelling to Tottenham Hotspur stadium, they have to undergo a match against Oxford United in the FA Cup tournament later. Although Arteta has the opportunity to rest a number of important players, the victory will be a magnet for Arsenal players to face Tottenham, who have just won against Portsmouth.

This season Arsenal are a very consistent team.
Yes, Tottenham Hotspur will be decisive for Arsenal to stay at the top of the standings, but if you look at Tottenham Hotspur's recent performance, their condition is not good. And I think Arsenal can beat Tottenham Hotspur considering they played very well, especially in possession.
Manchester City is Arsenal's only competitor who is only 5 points away from Arsenal, and in the next match in the EPL Manchester City will meet Manchester United. And recently Manchester United has been in good form, but if you look at the previous matches of the two teams, Manchester City is superior. And in my opinion, in the EPL match, Arsenal and Manchester City will both get full points, and if both of them maintain their positions in the next match, what will determine both of them will only be their meeting later.
2032  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🏆 The Emirates FA Cup - Season 2022/2023 on: January 09, 2023, 03:00:52 AM
Chelsea will be having sleepless nights anytime they get matched with Manchester City from now on because Manchester City showed their class against Chelsea today, what a humiliating defeat for the blues, I must say that I was expecting much better performance from Chelsea but that was not the case and if Potter continues with these kind of results he might get sacked sooner than later.
4-0 is a bad score for Chelsea even though it is only an FA CUP class. Chelsea's poor results in this defeat remind me of the management's quick decision to sack Thomas Tuchel and hand over the coaching duties to Graham Potter. I think Potter is still stiff in handling a club as big as Chelsea. GP's strategy did not go smoothly with Chelsea even though when he became Brighton coach it looked so successful.

The total shots taken by the Blues throughout the game were almost nonexistent. Only 1 on target and 1 off target.
Against Manchester City, Graham Potter played almost all the main players, only the left-back and center-back were played by inexperienced players, namely Lewis Hall (RB) and Bashir Humphreys (CB).

What's wrong with Potter?
It's an embarrassing defeat for Chelsea's class, their form in all competitions this season has been terrible and Graham Potter can't make Chlesea better after Thomas Tuchel, who I think is too early to be sacked by Chelsea.
and when Chelsea met Manchester City they really couldn't beat and even scored goals for Manchester City since the 2020/21 Champions League final and Abramovich's departure changed everything plus the departure of Thomas Tuchel Chelsea got even worse.

It is difficult to say which cryptocurrency news site is the best because there are many factors that must be considered when saying the best, because those who judge the best site are ourselves, which is not necessarily the best for others, and vice versa.
CoinDesk, BitcoinTalk, Twitter, and Reddit are the best sources for news and cryptocurrency related.
and i also use CoinMarketCap if i want to track cryptocurrency exchange rate, actually there are many best source sites or anything related to cryptocurrency. But it all depends on what you need, and I use it a lot with what I listed above which I find great.

Manchester United seems now ready to face Barcelona, regardless of the result but they are now much stronger mentally and game. Meanwhile, Barcelona is definitely targeting to advance to the next round if they manage to beat Man united because at the moment they are also in good condition in the regular league.
When both teams are in good shape with the abilities they have shown in their respective domestic leagues, their match in the Europa League will be a more interesting competition for everyone to watch even if one of them has to lose in the end. But personally I still want to see Manchester United's struggles in reviving the team this season in two different competitions including the European League competition
Barcelona will be a very tough opponent for Manchester United, because currently Barcelona leads the top of the La Liga standings and Manchester United is in 4th place in the EPL.
and it will be a very interesting game to watch because both are in good form, and I think both teams have a good squad from all fronts. And it all depends on strategy and also having to play the right players from all lines, especially on the front lines to score goals, and if you look at the four meetings between the two Barcelona teams are superior.
2035  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A superstitious strategy? on: January 08, 2023, 01:00:49 PM
In my opinion, luck and strategy are the perfect combination in gambling, and these two factors do have an effect on your ability to win at casino games.
Because some games are based on chance or luck to win, while others require skill or strategy to beat the house.
and winning or losing in casino games is heavily influenced by luck and strategy, but both are determined by the nature of casino games. As a result, casino players can win using both luck and strategy, and it is a combination of these two factors.
and if you play gambling without having strategy and expertise or playing carelessly it is very likely that victory or luck will be far from you.
2036  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are the motives that drive you to gamble? on: January 07, 2023, 07:50:24 PM
I can remember vividly some times back that I've been always busy at work and getting home very tired not to even have time for gambling at all because am too occupied, yet at the course of this, i still find a means to gamble even at the midnight because it's what I'd loved to do, sometimes even while on a short break  then i find a solem place to gamble using my mobile without anyone knowing, the moment am less busy i begin to feel been idle then i realized the usuals which is gambling.
Gambling activities will not just disappear even if you already have a job, but a full day's work routine can minimize or reduce gambling activities.
I have a steady job and what I feel is that my gambling activities can be reduced because of the time that has to be shared, especially during breaks after coming home from work and also other activities besides work including working in this forum. So I have to put my needs first, and if I have some free time and also have the urge to gamble, I do it. But because what I do is so important, I limit my gambling time and also become very infrequent.
at first it was difficult, but over time because of responsibility I got used to it and gambling activities became less.
2037  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I sell motorbikes to buy bitcoins on: January 07, 2023, 06:33:45 PM
In my opinion, this is a very good decision instead of borrowing money to buy bitcoin, because it is very risky, even though bitcoin investment is very promising in the long term, you still have to pay back your debt regularly with interest every month.
and you sell your motorbike to buy bitcoins, and since you have two motorbikes, it doesn't matter because you still have one motorcycle for you to use. And you do it at the right time because the price of bitcoin is falling and I suggest treating bitcoin in the long term to get a satisfactory profit, and you have to have the principle of how your motorbike turns into a car or something. And what you do is the right choice, and remember you also have to have strong patience because you will be tested along the way before reaching your goal.

Quote from: alpamar99
Manchester United against Everton ended with a 3-1 advantage for Manchester United.
There were some interesting things in this match such as De Gea's mistakes and 2 goals from Conor Coady to equalize and an own goal. On the other hand, there are things that are more interesting when you see Rashford's performance in this match. 1 Assist and 1 goal but also has an important role for Coady's second goal in his own goal.
Indirectly, Manchester United's three goals in this match were thanks to Rashford's excellent movement.

Manchester united didn't Miss used their opportunities in this match, because Everton plan is to make the match end up draw but Manchester united players introduced some new skills that made them to defeated Everton 3-1 for the favour of Manchester united. Manchester united strikers really demonstrated an excellent performance in this match, that made people concluded that the match will end up draw 1-1 but the match later turned for the favour of Manchester united in the second half. I think, Manchester united coach is really doing a nice Job in this season, because Manchester united is improving in this premier league competition.

Manchester United has 6 winnings streak in all competitions and this is the best achievement since Teg Hag arrived and this weekend they aiming 7th win and if Manchester United can do that these winnings streak will be equal to Mourinho era but Manchester City will be their opponent and they had poor records from Manchester City even several times to lose with big scores so i think their positive records will be stopped in this match although i know there was a lot of improvement for this team but it won't be enough for them to beat Manchester City however Manchester United seems had tight schedules because after fight against Manchester city they will faced Arsenal after this
Yet again, Manchester United played beautiful football across all competitions. In the FA Cup, Marcus Rashford put on an amazing display of tonight. Man United is doing an incredible job under Eric ten Hag. There is a discipline, plan, and results are six wins in a row in all competitions. The team has been doing well, but they will have to face Manchester City. We'll see what happens when they meet again, they had poor stats against them. To strengthen their squad this winter, Manchester United needs to add more players.

@Sebas.tian in another thread I had said that Manchester United would win, and I’m glad to see my beloved club is playing so well and major credit goes to Rashford as he’s fully transformed and even if we don’t get a striker now he’ll be able to score many goals and possibly help us secure a top 4 spot and win trophies too.

Also Ten Hag took some really brave decisions like playing Shaw as a CB and who would have thought of this, but it worked out so well for the team and this proves that he’s the right man to bring back our glory day’s.
Manchester United's recent form has been excellent and solid, and Manchester United's win against Everton in the FA Cup continued their fine form as Erik ten Hag's side made a clean sweep with five wins in all matches from all competitions.
Rashford has been a key and important player for Macnhester United up front and he has also been very reliable in providing assists and goals for his team. And Ten Hag has also shown himself to be very reliable, because Manchester United's busy schedule with the strategy of rotating players has made Manchester United perform very well in five matches.
2039  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do people store their cryptocurrency on exchanges? on: January 07, 2023, 02:31:36 AM
Given the level of vulnerability of exchanges, it is best to transfer most of your assets to a personal wallet, and leaving them on the exchange can make them vulnerable to the unexpected. However if you are an active arbitrage trader, the currencies you trade can be left on the exchange.
but it is better to leave the amount that you intend to use for short-term trading on the exchange and transfer the rest to the wallet, and not keep 100% on the exchange. Remember the adage "Not your keys, not your coins", this means if you don't control your private keys by transferring your coins to a wallet that you fully control.
and this is actually a serious problem that users, especially beginners, should be aware of, it does look trivial and may be considered safe because they never know and have the best knowledge, experience and information about this. And don't put all of their assets on the stock exchange to avoid unwanted things.
2040  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: We have been told: Invest only Extra money in bitcoin on: January 06, 2023, 05:24:08 PM
We have been told many times to invest only funds which you can afford to lose in bitcoins. But the question is that most of us do not have that extra funds to invest. So, what we do is we buy bitcoins from our savings, and from whatever money we get, we try to buy bitcoins. Middle class people do not have that EXTRA money WHICH THEY CAN"T AFFORD TO LOSE.

Yes, i invest in bitcoins but it is not EXTRA money and I am afraid I can't afford to lose. Do you have that EXTRA money that you can afford to lose  Huh



In my opinion, extra money is money that is used after meeting all the needs of a salary or other regular income, and extra money is broad, including what you get from a business or whatever. And if the results or profits are not used or for important purposes, then it can be said to be additional money that can be used for investment.
and extra money is not money for wedding capital or needs or goals for important things for future goals that you plan, and extra money money that is really not used and you can use to invest.
saving for investment in my opinion is wrong, and you have to make savings and investments separately. And saving is an obligation and not from additional money and aims for sudden needs or needs that really need money and you can use these savings without disturbing your investment.
investment goals for your future or old age that you will not use during your trip and until you actually get a satisfactory profit in the future, and if you are saving to invest are you sure you will not use it when you really need it and also when the market is not friendly or things are down.

and what I mentioned is for everyone and they can do it if they really want to do it, and it doesn't matter how much or how little extra money they have to invest, because I think that's the best way for everyone.
