I have always liked to talk about football because I consider it to be my Passion for Everything. When I was very young I Always wanted to be a player for my national team, I even told myself that I was going to take the Team very far, but in In view of many things, I didn't get involved in soccer and I had to learn on the Street , of course I was already a little old, and the language was not the same, there were people that started when I was 4 years Old and even though I had that talent because they didn't put them in, something that is happening with my son and he also wants the same, so I think that's what one calls having heart, well I know that in Europe things are quite strong , I Could say that when it comes to to do things better for the sport in this case they are very good at playing soccer, I have experience playing with German friends, and wow the Truth is they are very nice, especially running, also since they are so tall , they usually pick up speed very Quickly and are very strong, really to play against them, as an athlete you Must be very strong.

Now, since I have had the opportunity to play with them, also with the Brazilians , and they are Very very good, because apart from the fact that they run a lot, they have a very good technique, apart from that I think that with samba they play better , because there are many things that They make movements similar to the Samba dance and it is something that turns out to be difficult to read, so my respects to the Brazilians and their way of Playing is very cool, this is really very exciting, compared to other styles of dancing. game, for example the Colombian, the Colombian if you are not careful or if you are too strong, they break your leg easily, just like that, they play very hard and like starting, I don't know, I think they also do it when they are foreigners who play Against them, they play very hard, so you have to be careful , I think each country plays in its own way and it is Exciting.

In one of my things and my thoughts, I have always started to think about a scene like this, where one is very nice and someone sees the way to play and follows him, but of course that is something that I see as very fantastic, no. I think there is someone like that, but as has been said, it could be that there are some people who always like to share this because they like others to spend their money, you have to be a very millionaire person to do it, so in this order of things things can be quite strong, I might think that when it comes to things like that I always like to emphasize the fact that it can make a difference by taking considerations like:

1.-Friends who have a lot of money, I say friends, because they are the ones you already know and they know who you are, and the ones you can do and achieve.

2.- Be very lucky, find a stranger who would like to sponsor you.

Where I see that things are very possible is when it comes to gamers but not in the casino but in other types of games that in reality there is a large community, for Example on the PS5 and it is played online, where they know each Other and have a Great love for games because they are Capable of doing incredible things with this, however when I say about gamers it is because they must be very nice, in fact this makes me remember a movie that I recently saw, which is about this What a stupid thing to say, it's called: "Gran Turismo" and it's based on real events, and in the game of Gran Tourism, which I think we've all played at some point in our lives, I played it, but I didn't know that the game had technical aspects so good as to make it generate so much importance in reality, and a great simulation, for this reason it is said that in this way if it is easy to find a Sponsor , but the person has to be very good , in The casinos have to be someone who always has a lot of luck , which I find Difficult.

There could be an opportunity for Aston Villa to take the lead in the standings by this week. Because while Liverpool are hosting Arsenal in a really challenging game Aston Villa have a very comfortable home game against Sheffield Utd. I expect a really easy win for Aston Villa considering how much they are in form these days. Nothing below is acceptable for them now.

They are going to play their game before the Liverpool - Arsenal game as well which means they will probably take the lead temporarily already. Like I said before I feel like Liverpool will win against Arsenal at Anfield. But if we get a draw then congrats to Aston Villa on their lead.  Grin
Liverpool will have to be at their best to beat this in-form Arsenal side. They’re are tough and very formidable when play at Anfield. Their game against Manchester United ended in a draw and I think it has given Arsenal a morale to want to get a point or more when they play this weekend. I just hope for Arsenal to play well and take their chances...This Liverpool team is there for the taking, couldn't produce anything against an 11 man Crystal palace for 71mins, was poor against an out of sort Manchester United at home. So I don’t feel Liverpool will beat Arsenal.
Aston Villa will be hoping on a draw against these two sides to go top of the table. But I don’t think i Liverpool will want to drop another point this weekend after they dropped two against Manchester United. On the other hand, Arsenal are on a course, they will want to take all 3 points and stay at the top of the table till next year. So if Liverpool replicates the kind of performance they had against Manchester United, Arsenal will have all 3 points.
Well, judging by what you say, yes, you are right, but Arsenal is very comfortable there in first place in the PL, leaving City far Behind and far behind in 7th Place, an MU that Really does not I see a future for him , in this case I see that Aston Villa does anything to maintain itself, which seems to me to be a careful team, I would take great care of Myself because they are a team that at any time between a Salah and a Dizaz can make the difference without There is no Doubt , this could have made things even Easier , however I dare to think that it is very possible that Liverpool will take first place, I have no faith in City , because they have had a performance that I don't like, but On the other hand, although it is a little far Away , I like Newcastle's performance , since the Beginning of the PL they have made us dream that if they can do things , they just have to do things like Before , I don't know what they will have to do , but it is now that they do it.

In this order of ideas we have seen that the team that has Arrived in the most Successful way has been Aston Villa itself and that is what has left it clear that things can be done well if the whole team puts it into their heads, I think. that everyone has a winning mentality and that is what matters here, otherwise I don't think there is another way of seeing Things , for me it is a success that things can be presented this way, because it is a Different team , they have Everything their potential ready to be developed , exploited with Everything they have , that is why I Prefer that things can happen like this, in fact if it is above or becomes above an Aston Villa and being in first place is something that I I would like it very much , because it would set a Standard in the PL where Anything is Possible, there every team if they believe in it can Achieve it , this is what is taught more than anything, you have to do the things you want very well and get toDream about What that they Can do.

Arsenal's match against Liverpool was quite a boring match because it looked like the two of them were not attacking each other, even though the existing statistics show that both of them tried to attack each other up to 13 times and both of them also showed quite good kick accuracy. But at least a draw is a good choice because both get an additional point, whereas if they lose, then only one team gets an additional point.
I think the match was quite entertaining. Both teams played very carefully because they understand the points from the match was very crucial. That's why they didn't play very offensive, they didn't want to give the space for the opponent to build their attacking. If we look at the stats, both teams are very equal in any side. Specifically if we look at their total shoots during the match.

The draw result makes the competition for the title becomes more interesting. The point gaps among the top 5 of EPL standings aren't very large. So, the race for the title will be quite tight until the end of the season. Man City still has the chance to catch Liverpool and Arsenal in the top of SPL standings.


The English Premier League  isn't a league where you expect top teams to score plenty of goals in every game. For a fact, many had expected that many goals will be scared in the game between Liverpool and Arsenal because of the attacking talents of both teams but disappointed as the two teams only scored one goal apiece.  The two top EPL clubs were very careful not lose the game as they knew the importance of the game.
The two teams delivered a great performance in the game but  none of them were able to force a win and that I think is absolutely fine. The battle for who wins the English Premier League title is still very open but I think it'll be more competed by the two teams this season.
I did enjoy the build up of the match between these great sides, Arsenal and Liverpool. Although I was hoping Arsenal would capitalize on their early goal advantage to secure their three points to stay on top.  Liverpool proved me wrong and showed the world why they are one of the best and a favorite for the EPL trophy.
What am being wary of is the point gap between the top placed teams and the matches left to cement a sure top spot finish.

In short, things can happen in favor of a Liverpool that is Plugged in with victory, that is something that we can all see, and analyze at all times, things can happen for the better and we can take for granted that this team has a lot of potential and It's going to take a while, personally I feel that this Team is going to give everything of itself to bring more joy to the people of Liverpool, this is something very good, all I can say is that at the moment of having everything clear , many things can be trigger, now, taking into consideration the things that can happen are quite good in the PL, it is very difficult not to see a Man City here in first place, this is something that generates a lot of controversy and I think we are all getting an idea of How good this PL is, at least things with Arsenal are going well, how I wish they had participated in the UCL, something that would be the best , but hey , that's how things are.

Jamie Redknapp says Jurgen Klopp will be "disappointed" with Liverpool duo in Arsenal draw



Quote
"They had the one big opportunity with Trent Alexander-Arnold, the one player you would like it to fall to in that position. I think Mikel Arteta will certainly be the happier of the two managers."

Jurgen Klopp also delivered his verdict on the game. He said: "I saw top teams, that’s what I saw. What does that say about City, Tottenham, Aston Villa? Nothing. They are top teams as well, and others as well who maybe have a little bit less points but are there as well.

"I just saw two really good football teams, a really good game, super-intense. Top, top, top moments for us; could have won, maybe should have won. In all the interviews I had so far, I forgot completely Trent’s [shot off the] crossbar. That’s why I said, ‘I’m not sure, they could have [won]’ but with that chance we should have won the game. I only realised that when I had the radio interview.

"Besides that, they had the better start, we came super back in the game. Anfield was outstanding tonight, I think everybody felt it. It was brutal. It was really nice to see what we can do all together.

2144  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: December 24, 2023, 01:17:14 AM
------

Everything looks just fine for Leverkusen. They got a very easy win against Bochum and met the expectations comfortably. Now there is a long break in the Bundesliga which means Leverkusen closed the first half of the season as the leader. I hope they keep up the good work in the remaining part of the season too.
After getting a very easy win against Bochum, Bayer Leverkusen become the first team in German football to go unbeaten in the first 25 games. I watched their impressive 4-0 win last night, showcasing excellent football with energy and precision. The team is in fantastic form, and Xabi Alonso is proving to be a great asset for the club. Perhaps it's their time to shine, at least in the first half of the season. Let's see if Bayern Munich can't disrupt their momentum, similar to what happened to Borussia Dortmund last season.

Bayer Leverkusen is in the spotlight their performance is very impressive but that does not mean Bayern Munich can't bother them, remember Munich now has Harry Kane which can destroy any team in the Bundesliga 21 goals in 15 matches are proof that he can be relied upon when facing Leverkusen in the upcoming game, this moment will occur on February 10 next year somehow I believe Leverkusen will get the first defeat in the match. I see Leverkusen always win big when playing at home but when playing away tends to be a low score and here I see the weaknesses of Bayer Leverkusen but overall Leverkusen is indeed one of the best including in the Champions League.

Well, for some reason Leverkusen is in first place in the Bundeliga, undoubtedly here I would like to make a parenthesis and say that all this success has a name: Above Bayern is something that causes him a lot of shock, I imagine that If I say something, many say that they found the Bundelsiga a bit boring, now is it boring? There is something that we must accept, when we see different competitions, we tell ourselves that there is always a team that dominates, that stands out, that is the best, but there are also others that the teams wake up, the revelation in Germany is this Leverkusen team , in Spain Girona, then things are becoming more and more exciting.

In the Bundesliga that many of us Enjoy, it is quite exciting because we realize that when things are done well, we can be sure of something that could generate more Emotions , sports betting will become more biased, it will be more exciting from that point on. of sight, also in the joys that some people look for, because they often say that they don't like the Bundlseiga much because they see that it is boring because of what Bayern wins, now if Bayern wins this Bundesliga, this season's one would be showing that they are the emjroes, because it is not easy to overcome these facts, because when we see things from the closest point of view we want them to be emotional because there is Leverkusen, but of course it is important to see it from the point of view that can be more exciting when final where Leverkusen wins against Bayern , or where Dortmund Shines again and wow , they are not doing Badly at all.

Bayern Munchen still has a chance to retain the trophy, and there is still hope for them to overtake Laverkusen to take over the top of the standings. many matches have not yet been completed, the competition is only halfway through, which means there is no guarantee for Laverkusen to go unbeaten in one season.
Yeah of course Bayern Munich still has a chance on the trophy becaue there performance is also impressive but however before they can get to were Bayern Leverkusen is on the table is actually going to take them time because with the current performance of Bayern Leverkusen there chances of losing any match now is very small and the only way Bayern Munich can take over the first position on the table is if Bayern Leverkusen will lose two matches or lose one and draw one match, then if Bayern Munich wins two matches they automatically become the first position on the table.

So for now considering the clubs that may likely face Bayern Leverkusen, is very obvious that those clubs may likely lose against Bayern Leverkusen because Bayern Leverkusen is a very strong team compare to them, especially there next match against Venezia on the 7 January they will not take Bayern Leverkusen much of a time to win them, so perhaps just like you said there are still a lot of matches yet to be played so let's see how the end of the league will be.

We see good performance from Leverkusen during this season but that's not a good reason to say Bayern Munich is not going to win the Bundesliga title anymore, Bayern Munich is a team with experienced and expensive players like Harry Kane in their team, and that usually has many better chance than all other teams in the Bundesliga. I even think Leverkusen will lose their place soon in the table to Bayern Munich.


Well, we couldn't say that things can be like that, on a personal level I really like what Xabi Alonso is doing, and since these things are what are recognized, no one imagined that Leverkusen, really that Xabi Alonso Loo is doing very well, personally I think that he can make history in this Bundeliga alongside such an exceptional team, this is where I say that the good management of a coach can be seen and noticed in leagues, this is something that we all see and that it can go very well, in this case I can clearly see that Munich has a very strong contender and this is enough to worry about, so in this order of idea things can go very well to be able to enjoy a great season where This Bundesliga is getting very exciting, I no longer see why they say that the Bundesliga is boring, in this case we can say that when there are new options for a team to turn out well, they could be champions.

Bayer Leverkusen unwilling to sell Jonathan Tah to Bayern Munich in January



Quote
If one is a Bayern Munich fan, one is accustomed to the same player being linked to the club again and again over the years. Some of these links are to exciting players who could refresh the squad and bring it to the next level. And then there are the recurring links to Bayer Leverkusen player Jonathan Tah.

These rumors have popped up again, becoming relevant enough for kicker to bring the topic up to Leverkusen’s sporting director Simon Rolfes, as captured by @iMiaSanMia. Rolfes was fairly blunt about the matter, though. “Everyone stays. We won’t let go of any players in winter.”

2145  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: December 24, 2023, 12:58:53 AM
I'm sure this match for Lyon will be easier than the last one. With 2 consecutive wins in the last two matches, Lyon started to get hopeful. They were at the bottom of the league. They are now up 2 places. If they are lucky in the Nantes match, they will win the match and continue to climb to the top. Frankly, I wasn't very hopeful about Lyon until the last 2 matches, but the last matches proved me wrong. I now believe that Lyon can surprise any team.

It happened, they were able to beat Nantes, as expected, the teams with a weak attack could not score many goals, but Lyon only needed one goal scored and a good defensive game to achieve such an important victory. By the way, the game was relatively equal, but it was very important for Lyon to win, now they have got out of the relegation zone, and now they need to try to strengthen their positions, such a team should not leave Ligue 1.

Lyon are now out of the relegation zone with that victory. That makes their 3rd consecutive Victory. They won the match with Lacazatte's goal in the 49th minute.

Lyon is a team with history. A team with class. Such a team getting in the relegation zone is always very concerning, especially for their fans. They were in last place and now they are out of the relegation zone. But the danger is not over yet. They need to be consistent in matches and stop dropping points. Their upcoming match is against Havre and if they manage to win that match, then they might be able to jump 2 steps ahead in the ladder of Ligue 1.

I honestly don't understand how Lyon is a team that dropped so much, okay, I know that the level of football is increasing more and more, but last season this team gave a lot to talk about, it was even thought that It was the team that faced PSG so that it could stop them, and they were with Mbappé, Messi, Neymar, and a lot of thought was put into this team as well as Lille, of course I also considered Marseille to see if they could do something , but really they didn't do much, maybe these things could happen better because it could be something relevant but yes, now they have a Mbappé who is only doing things well, because he wants to leave, he wants to impress Madrid to see if they decide For him, something that I don't see as viable, this is a player that doesn't seem good enough to me to go to the white team, I consider Haaland much better because he is more focused on doing things much better, he seems better to me than MBappé himself .

Well now with reference to this, I want to emphasize that Luis Enrique also, although he is not a coach to my liking, perhaps because of his way of being, but he has done wonderfully with this team, of course I must consider that he should not forget I have to have a team without Mbappé because when the Frenchman goes to another team, he has to manage to get out of all this well, which I don't see as being so easy when there is an updated game plan and they are there all the time including Mbappé for his games, whether good, bad, losing or winning, because Mbappé has been there and I believe that it is time to start having the alternatives of him, perhaps putting him to play in other minutes to see the performance of The players will have to face it, at least one game they should play like this, because it is not that easy, just seeing the example of a Bayern Munich with only the absence of a player what triggered it, this is something that has to be considered.

PSG had the most stars last season but even with the most world class stars they did not do well in the Champions League last season.  When PSG made one surprise in last season's transfer window, we football fans thought maybe PSG would win the champions trophy this season but they forgot to buy midfielders and quality defenders in their rush to buy so many strikers. The result was that while they did well in the strike positions, they did not perform well in the midfield and defense positions due to which they underperformed last season despite high expectations. PSG has less star players this season compared to last season but the team is doing well this season with the arrival of a new manager. The limits to PSG's improvement may remain limited to Ligue 1 this season.
When PSG had a hand full of world class players such as Messi, Neymar and mbappe they were unable to still win the champions league and upon this I have continually built some doubts that if they couldn't win the UCL with all these players present then it will be even tough for them having one star player alone and hoping to win the champions league.

Their problem doesn't really lay within the presence of Star players been in the team but with their attitude of team play because that has a lot to do with how well they will perform and the results they will get at the end of the match and the season. PSG don't have a chance a at winning the UCL this season because their form currently isn't stable and the competitiveness of the UCL is such that they need stability and consistency to be able to win the league title this season. But the Ligue 1 is much easier for them to win which I think they should focus on winning the Ligue 1 and probably prepare better for next season UCL.
The problem of Paris Saint Germain isn't about  the number of quality star players they have as a team but because of lack of tactical approach that's good enough to see them win the only trophy that's eluded as a club.  They've hired a whole lot of top European managers to help them achieve their biggest aim in sports but  unfortunately for them, none of them have been able help them achieve that aim.

Thus Luis Enrique's first season with the club and he was able to help them progress to the knockout stages of the UCL after playing in the hardest group of the season.  Hopefully he's gonna go a step better than the club's best achievement in the UCL and that's to win the competition.

Well, these are the things we can say, I have always thought that, in fact last season with a Messi at full strength and with a Mbappé, even with Ney, well the thing was so that they would have easily won the UCL, but It was not like that, the things did not happen, of course this is not their fault, this is clearly the fault of someone called Ten Hag, for that reason it is because I have always seen that things could happen that way, the person responsible for everything This was always him, no one else, it can happen that every time you have things to do someone appears to ruin everything, of course this was also the fault of the president of the PGS, if he had seen that things were going wrong and did nothing, no? It's just the technician's fault, things are always like that, just seeing the example of the MU is something that speaks for itself, even so the leaders don't fire him, it's incredible, there are technicians that they miss.

Of course this is only what I say can happen, however when I do any kind of things like think about what they are doing right now, they are working with their nails. and all that stuff was left to Luis Enrique himself, who so far has not done badly, it is incredible how they have done it, so things can happen in the way that he progresses, this can be very good.

Now PSG can do many things, epro I have always said if Luis Enrique is not good enough to do things without Mbappé, I don't know what he will do when he leaves and it is very likely that he will do as much as possible and end the contract with PSG That's why, when we see these things, we start playing football more expectantly. This makes me curious because the Sheikh has let things go very badly, at least this season things go well and they win, but it's Something good, it is more than obvious that they have already grasped the level of how to do things well in this Lisuge 1, now things will smile for Luis Enrique.

Kylian Mbappé wants to stay at PSG in the January transfer window



Quote
According to L’Équipe, Kylian Mbappé (25) would like to stay at PSG in the January transfer window. This is despite the France captain’s current contract at the Parc des Princes expiring in June 2024. The 25-year-old continues to be linked with a move away from the French capital but appears to be prepared to stay put for the time being.

Mbappé’s long-term future is still no clearer with several options still on the table for the former Monaco attacker. However, PSG’s financial FairPlay limits mean they are not forced to sell the Frenchman. Therefore, making a potential January exit for the France International forward even less likely, especially when Mbappé would like to stay in France for now. On his 25th birthday, Mbappé had the opportunity to play with his younger brother Ethan for the first time in PSG’s 3-1 victory against Metz.

2146  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: December 24, 2023, 12:29:17 AM
It doesn't make sense for Napoli to deliberately lose a competition they still might win, to me it's just an absurd assumption. Napoli have experienced a very significant drop in form this season after winning the Scudetto last season, so they need to take advantage of every competition to win it instead of letting other teams beat them easily.
Yes, this is a realistic thing. It will be very difficult for Napoli to reach the top of Serie A this season and defend the title they won last season. Not only is their condition quite poor, but the distance between points is far away and the strength of the opposing team is actually getting better this season. The competition is very tough this season. And what's more, at the moment, I'm sure Mazzarri's focus is on improving the performance of his squad and trying not to fall into an even worse position. Because after all, Mazzarri also has quite a tough challenge here. At least if Napoli can still enter the UCL again next season, this will be enough for now.
With the current situation, it is very difficult for Napoli to maintain their situation as the current defending champions.
Napoli is currently still very difficult to maintain its current consistency and performance even though there have been several improvements including the change of coach that has occurred but indeed this is still a fairness when talking about the Scudetto in Serie A.
Until now since the last few seasons the club that won Serie A has never been able to go back to back to get the Scudetto after prime Juventus until the 2020 season until now no one has been able to last for several seasons for the Scudetto including Inter, Milan and Napoli who took turns every season in the last 3 seasons.

Napoli chances are now only possible to be in the top 4 and must try to appear there because it would be very bad if they failed to qualify for the Champions League next season after previously winning very convincingly. 
It is quite obvious that Napoli are struggling this season,and there is no way they can get to where they were last season because the team has lost that team spirit that was in their team,and the thrive towards breaking the yoke of not winning the Scudetto tittle for years.This season,they have been so poor in form,and if they do not push towards winning more games,they won't qualify for the Champions league next season.They were able to keep some of their best players of last season till this season,but if they do not qualify for the Champions league next season,it will make those players want to leave.For instance, Osimhen is considering moving to England,and his prefered destination is any of the London teams,either Chelsea or Arsenal.
Maybe last season will only be the history that Napoli will make as they were able to win the league, because from the look of things, I don't see any motivation in the players this season and the coach us not that type of person that has the spirit of lifting trophies. I believe that from next season if they continue in this performance, a lot of their players will go for bugger clubs so that they can win trophies.

I am not surprised towards their inconsistency in matches because they came from nowhere last season and won the league, this is how they might disappear from the top strong clubs as time goes, if the needful is not done. I already know that it will be a different club that will win this season, because Seria A is not a league that can be won back-to-back currently, as every club wants to make sure that they pull down whoever won it last. The competition is this league is strong and mean.

Well things with Napoli are very different now, I could say that things for last season there were many events such as I have said before and on many occasions, I consider that it is very necessary to repeat it and it is for the 14 points that Juve took him away, something that seemed very unfair to me for that reason is that we are not going to allocate all this time to do things in a better way because he does not think about Juve and not satisfied with that but they gave him a huge sanction like that of only play Serie A, what is missing is that for the next season if Juve wins Serie A, then they suspend them for a season and don't let them play at all, that is something that no longer surprises me how they do things in UEFA, and especially in Serie A, where they hit these teams that have so much history harder, really I don't know why they are now hitting Juve so hard, as if they had someone who was waging war on them.

For these reasons and many more I would like JUve to win Serie A, because basically when things are done like this it could give the best of all the results. Let's see how the UEFA people are going to invent it, since they would be showing what they are up to. done and how they could do so that things happen the way they are, that's why when it comes to doing things better, I would say that Napoli is a good team, but they are no longer at the level of doing things the way they have done them, They demonstrated it in the UCL where they had no life, now in Serie A I don't think they're doing better, so these things are what one says, why didn't they give a better chance to a team that really would have given them a win? and they would not have thrown away the golden opportunity they had,? Because many teams do want to do things well and have more opportunities for everything, but not this team, what this team did was do the opposite, they behaved or well, it seems to me that they did not behave like a defending Champion.

Yeah Roma has scored already I know that Mourinho cannot afford to lose this match as when he's playing a strong side that's when he brings out all his coaching skills, Lorenzo Pellegrini scored in the 76th minutes and he was assisted by Stephan El Shaarawy, it was indeed a lovely goal and i think it may just decide the outcome of the match.


We can't call Roma stronger even though they won today, we consider it luck because after the red card Roma could only score a goal if there is no red card maybe the final score is 0-0 but Roma still got the 3 important points it doesn't matter how they get it the end result is what matters. This defeat will add to Napoli's poor results in the last 5 matches Napoli even fell from 5th position something we didn't expect due to their status as champions last season while Roma and Fiorentina are slowly rising in better positions. The top 6 teams managed to win the match except Milan who drew yesterday I'm afraid these teams are bothering Milan in 3rd place Milan is really not safe there they have to get out of their comfort zone.

Well, personally, I am very happy that Roma won, whether a player came from another team or not, because things went very well for Mou , Napoli can no longer Defend the Serie A title, the truth is they lost the level is too high, I think they never deserved to have won Serie A, they deserve to win another team but that one, because in the UCL they did Nothing , and you can't be very good in a team that has had everything to Succeed,  as far as Personally, if not that could have been why Juve were so bad with those 14 points that they took away, it is very likely that the story would have been very different, in this order of ideas , the Performance that Napoli has Shown is very poor , I don't Know how from one moment to the next they collapsed as if the objective had only been to win Serie A and no more, everything would have stayed there, it is something Strange but when we see the things that happen like this, there is nothing to do , we have to assume the things as they are.

Napoli managed to make the Joys and many emotions flow for their people, but they have not been able to fill this completely because things have been quite disappointing, and so far in the league the cases have not gone very Well, then one can Say that when we are generating some good Looks, things turn around, on the other hand, it seems good to me that Roma , Fiorentina are Moving slowly but surely, so that gives me joy, it is something that they deserve, and I like it that everything is going well for them, I might think that this is the opportunity to do things very well for a Team like Juve, in fact I Would like Juve to become Champions of Serie A , to see how they will turn out. group of those who imposed tremendous Sanctions, in fact if they do it like this, I hope they teach them a good lesson, it would be extraordinary if at the moment they Could do Things more Focused on what is fair , Football Always Triumphs.

It is difficult if only 1 or 2 players have high spirits because in the end we also have to realize that the game on the field is about teamwork and even if there are people who are always used as a reference and backbone, it will not work if in the end their teamwork is poor, as well as Sevilla.
Sergio has never been indiscriminate as long as he plays then he will definitely be serious and that has not only happened at Sevilla but at several clubs before but the problem is that Sevilla's mentality has been bad since the previous few seasons which makes them always troubled and even now it can be said that they have not been able to bring their performance to a better direction.

Right now they have to focus because whatever happens now with the name of their club which can still be said to be quite large it will not be too ethical if it continues to be at the bottom of the table and they must fight for their performance to be even better especially with a schedule that is quite favorable for them at this time because the focus is only for La Liga.

For some clubs now and say about Girona then indeed this will be endless because their performance is really extraordinary until now, kmearin Madrid has been able to regain the top position but things like this are unlikely to be long if today Girona get 3 points again against Alaves.

Well yes, it is a fact, Sevilla has to do better , they have to give everything and be better because the numbers don't lie, their performance from now on has to be impeccable, they have to do something urgent so that they don't get left behind , it's difficult , now Girona won and yes , they are First in the standings and I don't know but this team is Showing great signs of doing things the way they should be, for me in particular this is how all the teams should be, this team has a lot of potential and is measuring up to Madrid , in fact I left out a Barcelona that also has a lot of history, and this is worth seeing and making others see why they have to do things like these to be able to generate a greater football force in Spain , despite From all this I like how things are going because Obviously when we talk about Football Wverything comes to mind of doing great things with teams like these, which have not much to talk About, but no one dares to Speak badly from a Girona that I believe its success is accompanied by good talent and great players.

Girona still seem to be surprising up to now which makes us as viewers still give them a look of amazement especially for now it seems that their dominance and attacking power is getting better because of the confidence of the players which makes their goal productivity increase sharply.
We can see in the last 3 matches in all competitions that they have played at this time Girona have scored 12 goals and that is an extraordinary achievement for Girona which is an ordinary club with players who can be said to be ordinary too so in this case we still have to continue to appreciate what they are doing on the field at this time.
Tomorrow they will again meet with a troublesome club, Betis, but with their current performance it will be a natural thing if Girona is still the favorite in this match despite playing away in week 18.


In another match Barcelona are currently 1 goal ahead against Almeria but when looking at Barcelona condition which is still the same to be honest I still doubt the defense they have.
Yes, you're right, as for Barcelona, it seemed like a very Difficult match for them, but come on, they were Playing with the bottom of the table and they Still Suffered , I think the team has many deficiencies, and I think that's why What I have seen is not because of his players, the truth is that I see that they have the fruition in their Faces When they play and that they do not get the results they want, and that has a lot to do with Xavi's way of directing , From what I have seen, the club, if he does not do a good job, will do without his services, but I believe that as a coach, if you are doing badly and you are making the club of your dreams, which at one time gave you Everything , look very bad , then You must do or take a step back, I think that other teams can see Xavi as an option to be hired, but in Barcelona I don't see it well , of course it is my very Personal perception and it could be that I am unsure , so far They won't convince me , of course we have to Wait because this club sometimes takes Unexpected Turns and they are capable of Placing themselves first in the table , because that's how they have done it , I think it's time for me to take that control Again.

Even so, in order for them to enter the Competition they have to win the nextGame and ensure that Madrid lose it so that they are just 1 point away from overtaking them, but I think that Girona with the motivation they have Will not Allow them to lose , As I Said before, this Team is Surprising , and one begins to see that the Squad is a normal Player , who does not have any type of star status, and here the credit for this can go largely to the coach Himself , who Eventually We don't see it and I can establish a quick analogy , which is Something similar to what Xabi Alonso is doing in the Bundeslia with Leverkusen, because he is making his fans believe that this is possible , Girona is assuming that Everyone The players are great , there are no stars here nor Anyone that overshadows the rest , I Think this is the best thing about a team.

There is a postponed match between Atletico Madrid vs Sevilla today, yes it's a match that should have happened in week 4. I can't count on Sevilla in this match, because this season they are very worrying, in La Liga they are struggling to rise and in the Champions League they have to go home early without even winning 1 victory.
It looks like Atletico Madrid will be able to comfortably win this match, and they can restore their last 2 matches that ended without a win. Sevilla is a very good opportunity for Atletico Madrid to win, especially this is a match that will be held at their own headquarters.

The match has started already and it's in the 20mins with both team playing 0-0. Just like you have said, Atletico Madrid should secure a win here as they are playing with a weaker team.
The match was really a tough one for the both side because there first half was very difficult for Atletico Madrid because it seems that Sevilla really understand the pattern of Atletico Madrid so they had to make sure that Atletico Madrid never get the chance to penetrate there defense line and also what helped Atletico Madrid was there home advantage.

Actually I was thinking at the beginning of the match that Atletico Madrid may likely score on the first half because there performance was quite impressive than Sevilla although I'm not disputing the fact that Sevilla did not perform well because irrespective of Atletico Madrid wining, Sevilla also played very well because if you check there possessions the difference is not much and also at the ending of the match Sevilla was putting more pressure on Atletico Madrid, although Atletico Madrid was very lucky to have scored before there red card because playing with short one is very difficult for a team, so perhaps if they had gotten the red card at the beginning of the match Sevilla would have utilize the opportunity and win them.

I even don't remember the last season in which Sevilla had a good performance and got good results because, in most of the time, they had weak performances in the La Liga and failed in this league.
In the game between Sevilla and Atletico Madrid, they were about to get one point in this match but Marcos Llorente scored a goal and used the chance he had. However, I think the main reason for Atletico Madrid to win this match was the huge mistake from Sergio Ramos the experienced defender of Sevilla.




I think the same as you in this case the great Setrgio Ramos made a big mistake, but it is understandable, things are like that sometimes, mistakes are usually made and that can be the trigger for things to be lost, in this case the match It was very close, I personally enjoyed it, but Sergi Ramos was the only thing he did and it was a bit difficult for him, things in football are sometimes like that, and the best of a team can also make mistakes, if we Let's se e, Sergio Ramos did everything right, the only thing was that mistake he made, it was something he didn't expect, but Atlético was there waiting, and they didn't forgive him, I know that many things can happen and now with all these guys A game like this happens can generate a lot of emotions, and this has to do with everything that can be channeled to play a good game, Atlético del Cholo did it this time, and there is no denying it, but they did it well.

Atlético wants to recover its form, and it could be that way, so since things are happening that way it could be seen that it wants to climb , of course it sees a Girona that does not give its arm to fight, Barcelona is a little weak and Madrid, which is a team that is giving everything, apparently because Ancelotti wants to do whatever it takes to be able to be at the top and go out as it should, winning both the League and the UCL, this means that if it is fulfilled, wow will come out of the Madrid being the legend of legends , sometimes Atlético wants to do something , Cholo may be pursuing that objective that has not been given to him and now with Sevilla he has things more difficult although the results do not help him much, because he has to do much more, remind us that Sevilla did very well in Euoriopa Legue, suddenly this team activates and starts to win, I hope they do it because time is going to pass and they are not going to be able to achieve it , we have to Wait .

How important was the win?

“Very important. We left disappointed after the previous game. It was also a special day, just before Christmas, you could feel it in the atmosphere and we were looking forward to it.”

So while we are thinking that this is an easy fight for Inoue, his camp doesn't think that way.

From this article publish by philstar global, this is what Inoue has said during an interview.
https://www.philstar.com/sports/2023/12/21/2320508/inoue-admits-feeling-scared-tapales-showdown-nears
Quote
“What scares me the most is people around me think it will be an easy fight,” the soft-spoken pound-for-pound star said during a media workout the other day in Japan.

Inoue and his camp just recognizes the danger Tapales brings to that table that they admitted bringing in sparring partners from abroad who have differing styles so they would be ready for anything come fight night.

Inoue showed respet to the ability of his fellow champion, and that's the kind of attitude I like on a boxer as it will reflect on his work ethic. Now, with this humble words from him, it's hard not to think that he'll beat Tapales easily.

Japanese fighters are known for always being polite and respectful. Inoue isn't going to downplay or trash talk his opponent. Even if he won't admit it publicly, Inoue is well aware of his superior abilities. Tapales isn't a bad fighter by any means but Inoue is a generational talent and anything short of a dominant victory will be considered a disappointment. I am sure that Crawford beating him in becoming undisputed twice will motivate him to try and get a spectacular finish so that he can be considered the pound for pound king.

Indeed, Japanese in general aren't trash-talkers and are polite. Of the countless Japanese world champions in this sport, I can only remember one who is arrogant and that is the eldest of the Kameda brothers.

If Inoue schools Tapales and then knocks him out. Will he replace Crawford becomes again the pound-for-pound king? Tapales could be out of Spence's level although the guy is a 2 division champion. But it's a great achievement if Inoue wins, only the second to become a 2-division undisputed champion in the 4-belt era. And then by early next year, we have Oleksandr Usyk also trying to become a 2-division undisputed champion as well and also has a serious case to become the new pound-for-pound king.

True, Japanese have that discipline that's why they don't talk trash against their opponents, and on the contrary are very respectful. I think if Inoue wins here then it's going to be a tough call as to who will be the pound for pound or even fighter of the year.

Crawford already did it, at 140 and 147 lbs and Inoue will be the second at 118 and 122 lbs to accomplished and unify belts in 2 divisions.

So that is a huge accomplishment for the Japanese and I think he will set the record in Asia (same with Inoue if he wins).

Yes and you cannot deny the great power that Inopue has in this fight, in fact with respect to Tapalesm, it is not that I am a dissective person, but that will be something that Inoue has to show off, because this is the moment to give us the Christmas gift for us who are Inoue's fans without a doubt, for me Inoue represents what a boxer should be, he is a respectful person, he only dedicates himself to his sports, he is the best at it and has a lot to show, of course In fact, I think that his success has always been because he does not leave a single day to rest, he is always working his body and has a lot to show, in this order of ideas things can be very good when they try to do things well, for That's when something like this fight is done, the bets can be very much in his favor, I'm not saying that Tapales is easy, because he is a very good boxer, with great abilities, but to be at the level of an Inoue it is difficult, Noya has always shown that this sport makes it look easy, but that's how he is, he has the talent.

Furthermore, not only is it all there in the talent, it is also in the work he has for this, he always shows that he can do things well even as things are, be it in Japan or in any other country, he always shows that he is the best, I think his success is also because his training is getting harder and harder, and since that is what keeps him in shape, I would like Inoue to reach the heavyweight category, so that he can crown himself with everything, because he is a boxer who has the capabilities to do it and this can cause a lot of commotion, a Japanese being heavyweight champion, uff is a great achievement, of course I'm speculating, I don't know what the goals and expectations of the Japanese are, but I think it's going on a very good path, so far he has gained many fans and many use Inoue as a great motivation in boxing, I would like to see him become much bigger than he is now.

BoxingScene.com's Television Pick of The Week - December 23



Quote
On December 13, 2022, 30-year old Naoya Inoue (25-0, 22 KO) became the first undisputed bantamweight champion in more than fifty years. The junior featherweight division might have briefly been a thing in the 1920s, but its real incarnation starts in 1976. There has never been an undisputed champion. A roster of championship greats that includes Wilfredo Gomez, Jeff Fenech Marco Antonio Barrera, Erik Morales, and Manny Pacquiao and yet no one has ever assembled all the major belts. It didn’t happen when there were two, three, or four. Inoue has a chance to make that history but 31-year old Marlon Tapales (37-3, 19 KO) stands in the way.

Tapales enters off the best win of his career, a rousing upset earlier this year of Murodjon Akhmadaliev. Inoue has won titles in four weight classes. Tapales has won them in two, including a brief title stint at bantamweight. Inoue is heavily favored to win but Tapales is tough, has quick hands, and fighters expected to lose often fight like they have nothing to lose along the way. Can Inoue add to what is becoming a historically great career in what could soon be a decade of dominance?

Governments and several organisations work to encourage responsible gaming. This involves establishing betting restrictions, offering support to those who think they have a gambling problem, and participating in self-exclusion programmes.
if the government is truly seeking for responsible gambling then they must have a complete package of advertising in all major channels and places when this will be advertised because let us admit the reality that they are just trying to fool people by saying they are against gambling addiction but they are gaining huge income tax from gambling businesses so what is the truth on that?to be responsible must be not dealing in gambling at all.

In my personal opinion, one should not believe too much in governments that say in a good way that they are going to protect their citizens from the risks of chance, betting and casinos, because they basically come in with that excuse, I have experience in that because I am in a country where a government banned pro casinos for more than 20 years and what was achieved? nothing, that the freedoms ceased, so the people did not have access to play in the physical casino, many do not know what a physical casino is, until a few years ago when another government came in and did allow casinos, with the exception They have to give you a lot of money to be able to carry out the activity, so the governments do not want to protect the citizens, but what the government wants is money, I think it is time for everyone to know that the governments do not want to protect the people. That's just what they make you believe, what they Really want is for a lot of money to come in so they can do their things better.

A government that I thought was not like that was in the USA, but the signs of desperation that they have shown in this update of the time , I Have seen that governments always seek the same power , to manage everything, and make more and more wealth, no I know what the policies of the casinos will be like for the USA, but I know that there are many casinos that do not allow users to enter the USA, except for Stake.com where they basically looked for Everything only legal requirements to be able to operate there, but I imagine which must be a lot, so in this case things are usually quite tough, and the regulatory policies for the governments with respect to casinos , exchanges are usually quite strict, now with the blessed KYC that is something so annoying , it is a way to enter , and those who are more believers in Bitcoin and crypto are not capable of doing it, as I said , a government will always do things for its own benefits, never for a people , and that must be understood.

First thing first,  be for you set out to start gambling,  you should first of all make up you mind wether or not you want to gamble for the fun or chase after the winning,  this is the most important thing to do before you start gambling.

What I do first was to understand that gambling should be done just for fun and nothing more than that,  and anytime there is a big win for me,  I just take is a based on luck and I don't depend on it and start thinking that I will be winning all the time,  many of the time that I have recorded some loses is when I took out extra time and resource to play more in a particular directions which did not go well with me and that have made me to only gamble within my set limits at all time and never take my luck as an expectations.
The first step you explained is the determining factor to limit yourself in gambling activities, I am sure you will not get too involved in betting and you can avoid the influence of gambling addiction, all gamblers must follow these steps to change their gambling goals before they are affected by gambling addiction can lead to loss of control over finances. Even though the advice is simple, it can stop you from getting addicted to gambling and you should limit the amount of money you use for gambling, make sure you don't use high funds for gambling
This is easy to do before you even start to gamble, but when you are actually doing so this is way more difficult as people on the heat of the moment do a lot of things they eventually regret, so even if a person is completely convinced they are gambling for fun and that is their intention, once they begin to gamble they cannot help themselves in trying to obtain profits in one way or another, and then they find themselves losing more money than what they intended.

Well, the fact of not using large funds in betting is great advice, of course I say it from the point of view that if it is a person who is economically quite normal, there are people who exceed our financial capabilities and are capable of risking a lot of money. I am not capable of doing it, because what millionaires are willing to lose is quite a lot compared to what I, for example, have, but I think the trick of all this is that at the moment of doing any kind of Of course, we must be quite factual, before playing if there must be a plan, but not necessarily a risk management plan, that is, what involves money, because the money we are willing to lose is the first thing. What should we do, in this sense what we do is that, if we are people who have about 200usd in our pockets, then have 25usd to spend, if we spend it all then don't continue playing anymore, I think that 25usd is enough money because you have to lose, you are not going to risk 50usd that you are willing to leave in a casino.

I say it that way because the only thing we have to do is take care of our balance, it is very hard that if we have those 200usd in our pocket, to enter the casino and leave with 0 dollars in our pocket, that is very tiring and that is for sure loses in a quick moment, especially when the person does not have any experience in these ezazar games, then we have to be intelligent and take care of our money, because money costs earning it and that is what we must take care of most at the moment. Whether in a casino or anywhere, money is the most important thing, there is no other way, there are always ways to do things better, so that's why I will always say that things will be better when we do something better. good management of things when it comes to money, because it is not that we enter the casino and lose, it can happen that we are lucky and win everything.

The head-to-head between Inter and Juventus continues to compete for first place in the Serie A standings. Juventus won today in the first advance of the 17th round 1-2 at Frosinone and temporarily moved back to -1 from Inter.
As usual, Juventus wins but fails to actually dominate the match but they prove to be a very difficult team to beat as they suffer very little from opposing attacks.
At 6.00 pm there will be the Inter-Lecce match where the Nerazzurri are required to win to keep the Bianconeri at a distance.
However, Inter will have to do without 2 starters such as Di Marco and Lautaro Martinez who are injured
Well, personally, Inter is a very strong team, even with its commitments, it continues to defend its status, this team really is an example for Italy and for Europe, I think things can be very good if they continue to happen that way So when we think that Inter is falling behind, they manage to do things that put them at a premium, compared to Juve, because I think that this team should win Serie A, of course they want to be first, not second, but first. , since the first place grants that class, that privilege that they have loved so much through the bans that have been imposed on them, well the sanctions although for me it is the same, but they should not continue with that, if they continue with sanctions like that Even if the team wins Serie A and the UEFA with the Serie A executives , who are going to sanction the team, leaving them without Serie A for a Season , in this order of ideas we must always do something to benefit the Team , Leaving the fans without Juve is the worst thing they can do against football. Even without being from Italy , I feel great love for this country and its team. Juve is a classically official representation of what the national team means. from Italy.

I think that Ialinao football will give a pleasant surprise in the next World Cup , because I am sure that if they will qualify, I want to see generations similar to that of Paolo Maldini and the bull Vieri, and all that golden generation that made us excited, also see, this is the team of a great like Buffon who has already retired, and I enjoyed every game that this goalkeeper played, that is why football in Italy means a lot to me, and I believe that the sanctions given to the teams should be Outside, sanctions as harsh as those Juve received that they won't even let them play in the Europa League , it's a shame that they are so Severe , that's why I want them to do everything in Serie A.

Press Room | Comments after Frosinone-Juventus

Quote
MASSIMILANO ALLEGRI

“The team played a good match on a pitch where only Napoli had won: it wasn't easy and after an excellent first half in which we created a lot, we only scored one goal. In the second half we dropped a bit and they immediately equalized with a ball we should have done better with: luckily there was a reaction and the victory came in the end. I'm happy for both Kenan Yildiz and Dusan Vlahovic for these goals. We have recovered several players, there is an excellent spirit in the locker room and all the players who have come in have done well. We have exceeded the 38 points we had set: now let's have a good Christmas and then think about Roma. Let's see on January 7th how many points we have and we will understand how close we are to the Champions League quota, which remains our first objective. Starting on the bench reassured Vlahovic, after the criticism of the last matches: I knew that he could give us a hand in the last 30 minutes and so he did. He is also growing mentally. Yildiz is very mature: when Federico Chiesa was ruled out, I thought of him because he is the natural replacement for him."

I'm not really a fan of superstition so I don't agree that it helps you in a karma way to tip the people near you when you hit a win, all slots are programmed to do the same thing and the probability that they have in there are all the same, unless the machine Gods and machine spirit is real, then those stuff can't be true about slots and if they're true then you're still fucked because you're the unlucky one.
-snip-

I learnt yesterday that the governments set the rules about the requisites, limits, etc. that gambling machines must respect in the territory. So, apart from Gods and owners/manufacturers, politicians have something to say too about the probabilities for you to win.

Of course, online the frontiers are blurred so online casinos have more freedom than the owners of the physical machines we see in taverns and casinos, but after knowing all that, and how these machines are programmed, it is harder to believe in superstitions.

Wow, it doesn't seem strange to me, but the governments in Europe? This is something that makes us all a little upset, I understand that the country that is strongest in paying for services and that supervises any activity in Europe is Spain, because I know that the Treasury has a large arm where it handles many things, this is something that is sometimes scary but personally this type of thing can be seen as the best for some, but I say something with respect to governments like that of Spain where not even Shakira was saved because it is something hard , because basically the natives themselves know Well, what is the system like and a foreign person who fails in the slightest pays dearly and even with prison it is hard , I think that the government of Portugal, its banking and financial system is a little more Friendly , in fact I have always liked it a lot That system, therefore, I would see it as a more bearable system even for foreigners where the casino activity is not yet regulated, well that's what I understand.

In South American countries, especially where I live , the only thing they regulate is the Bitcoin mining activity, they are not in charge of any other activity, because if they start Regulating , I think that all the people would not pay attention to it, even Thus there are still miners who carry out their activity without even wanting to be and comply with what they command, perhaps in South America because of the things they have experienced they are a little more irreverent with these things, because they can accept any thing , but if the government gets Involved With your pocketbook they don't allow it, I think they prefer to go to jail rather than give more to the government, these things are sometimes good, but it is difficult, compared to the system in Spain I think it is even superior above all, since The pensions and their systems of supporting people are very high and the city is much higher , even in the richest Country in South America with oil Reserves.

Getting addicted to gambling is one common issue almost all gamblers are facing. You be like I'm going to minimize my gambling but still going against that. Mostly when you trying to get what's loss back and trying to get it pretty fast you become addicted staking more bigger funds. There's still way to fight against the addiction even without the help of therapist you can meet someone with good experience and principles in gambling someone that have already experienced the addiction before. And the impacting on you will be effective.

Yes, trying to "win your losses back" is a common behavior in gamblers that most of the time ends up digging a bigger hole...

Hopefully they learn this lesson with a few bucks earlier on, instead of later in life when they have more funds to dig a bigger hole.

In reality you can't really recover your losses. They are gone.
Well, I don't subscribe to the way that some gamblers will just be gambling without having plans, which could only be responsible for them gambling excessively, losing and trying to recover the losses. This is common in my experience with gamblers I know, and in the end, they lose their money, but it is at least most of them, not all. And for the fact that it is most of them that are losing money due to that careless act, is why I conclude that your last advice is confusing. For you to lose money in gambling doesn't mean you can't gain it back in the same act and I have done these times without numbers. It depends on the gambler, the emotions of gambling and the kind of game the person is gambling on. If it is in sportsbooks, I just breathe in and out when I lose and wait for the other time when the right available means presents itself to strike even harder. But for casinos, you will have to rely on your fate on that fateful day, but it is not always fine for most. In all, we should not act under emotion, and even before we get into the casino's house or our gambling platform, we should know what we are there for and how we will play until we opt out without any compromisation.

I have always said something that can be very real, when we enter a casino the casino assumes and knows that one is of age, and being of age is not just turning years old on the day you turned 18, and that's it, no. , that implies many things, first of all age is the number, but this implies that no longer a child, or adolescent, there are certain things that have already matured and are supposed to be very mature and that the difference can occur at any given time that things when it comes to earning money or making money are delicate, therefore when we are doing all kinds of things like gambling, it is necessary if we have a risk management plan to spend all the money we have cannot and should not be get away, because we would be being irresponsible, and the caisno assumes that one as an adult is responsible, that we are responsible for our actions.

In this order of things, when you Try to do things a little better , you have to take them to the level of the possible, that is, the moment you fall into addiction for any reason , it is our Fault , we Immediately You must Recognize that we can control ourselves and if we reach that stage of being addicted, the other thing that must be done is to quickly seek treatment, or go to the psychologist or something, but we have to act quickly, otherwise we do not have the Financial resources, Look for the closest alternative that often works, calming down the Anxiety and desire to go, perhaps by doing a lot of sport, so that when the body gets tired the mind rests, and like any person who does sport, they always carry their dose of tiredness. It's good to do things like this so you can forget about the game, it's a healthy way to do it without Compromising anything, you can go jogging, go to the gym, something like that, for the moment you get home and feel like Playing , be so Tired that you can only Sleep, that's what you should do.

Well, these things actually don't Surprise me, it's obvious that on Twitch they want to do whatever it takes to get their income back, it's not a Lie that they are noLonger like they were Before , the fact of having eliminated the option that you can Allow it of the games , casinos and all this, well, something that the sinvgresos are not the ones Alleged , perhaps with this nudity and getting into the side that is art and all that, well it is basically to have more Clients and so that the platform does not die, it sounds harsh as this is , but when a Platform like this stops receiving the income that they unfortunately had, it is something to worry about , because we are People who sometimes eat , with the eyes and what we see we want, So since these things are what we might like , who doesn't like to see women who show a little more than normal ? to many , on the basis that in the World the best Advertising and that gives the most favorable Results is what is sold as Sex.

This at the time of agreeing to sexualize the platforms is because they are really desperate for them to want to have this type of access to the media, there are many platforms that compete with this, like Only Fans, so these things are not so bad because they see Think about it from the point of view of the Quality of the competitor they have, because some Weights won't last long if it will catch their Attention, but on a personal level these Types of things may cause curiosity but this is already very easy. so that they can have the maximum Audience again, the maximum Community, because things are very unreal like this, this drama I believe that not even putting the casinos back would they have confidence in them again, it is something Almost Impossible , because nothing like that is done, You have to be very Emphatic to do Things well and this Platform may have some gluins that they missed and that is that given the way they did it , it Seemed good, now they don't have a way to bring in more People.
2156  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slot games are a waste of time and money (most of the time) on: December 23, 2023, 02:52:35 PM
And that is the scary part, every single gambler out there has experimented losses and thought about betting a little bit more to give themselves the chance to recover the money they have lost, however the majority of the gamblers can control themselves and avoid doing so, while a minority decides to follow those feelings and that is when they start a journey that is bound to not end well, as even if they do not become addicted they will lose way more money than what they wanted during that session.
It is best for those who have experienced losses from gambling to think about whether they have gambled excessively and should try to reduce the amount of their losses. If they can reduce the number of losses, it is lucky for them to use a small part of their money to play slots so that they don't feel that playing slots wastes their time and money.

What is important in playing slots is how we can control ourselves well. We can easily lose self-control when playing slots because we experience consecutive losses. It can make us want to continue playing slots to recover the money lost in slot games and there are even some gamblers who choose to deposit their money again to recover their losses. They may also need to set an alarm as a marker and reminder that their time has run out playing slots so they have to stop playing slots immediately. Otherwise, they will only experience more defeats.

Well, you have to see that the things behind each game there are always stories, there is a lot to talk about and say, I don't deny that the slots are made so that you can win even more money , yes, but you have to give some things that I attract them to the person , because with a minimum bet you can win a lot and Spend a lot too , but it may be that there is a lucky chance and you really walk away with a good amount and it multiplies, that is something that will Always be possible and can be have as a basis for anything, now, if we can think for a moment , we have seen everything in the stake.com thread ann that players will always manifest themselves with their players who become very millionaires, and those millionaires how much will there be? period? because they also lose a lot, that's what we don't know and they are things that we must at least imagine, because that's what this is about, having full knowledge about a game as Popular today as Slots.

I don't get Complicated with Slots , I Know that to win is Difficult, it's complicated and that you have to do things to be able to generate a Better Guarantee of things and that can be the determining factor of many things, because when I play slots I use them for the Purpose of de-stressing and maybe getting rid of a bad day or something, where I'm not looking for money, but for entertainment, I like the system, I like their music , I like the way the slot is , but Above all the most important thing for me I easily control it because I Always have very Little money to spare , and I don't run out of it , because I accept my loss and now , I come back another day or with other Attempts, all of that is what I basically do , but there are times when you Win and It's something Great , Because when you have a nice motorcycle, even with very little Money , then that kind of luck is why we should take advantage and get it , because it's the smartest Way to have and feel the money you've Earned.
2157  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you take time to read the terms and conditions of casinos before registering? on: December 23, 2023, 02:30:16 PM
Myself I do take my time to read all the necessary things concerning a casino gambling instructions before I can as well do anything in accordance with any platform, because when you don't take your time to read the gambling site instructions won't be able to understand the measure of the platform, so therefore for we to understand the platform very we what we needed is to take our time to go through the terms and conditions of the platform,  so many people have challenges of platform due to what they have in mind is not to engage in a kyc verification whereas the terms and conditions of the platform demands kyc, so after everything they began to have issues with the site
Just need to snip out those important key notes or informations which you would really be needing to read up and not
on the whole agreement.

1. KYC rules
2. Restricted countries
3. Account limitations

These are the most common information that would really be changed up and this is why its not really that shocking
that people do miss out because they do believe that each casino do have the same terms and conditions which is
really very wrong assumption.

Yes, basically that's it, although we as players always want to know more information, sometimes you can find some important things, about bonuses in general, all of that is good to know so that there are no problems Later , but there are things that Cannot be stopped like the In the case of KYC , of prohibited countries, especially if a VPN is used to access, which seems to me that all casinos Should accept playing with a VPN, what Really matters if we go to the most basic thing is that the person plays, has fun, no Matter what country it is , I believe that we all should and have the same right to enjoy and not that a government or several determine that you cannot play from country X because no , no , things must change , you just have to see it from the most reasonable point of view, in a crypto casino there are identifications, prohibitions, so this goes against crypto, because for that, those who want to stay with their regulations go with their casino of fit money, that they are regulated and not impota, that they do what they want.

But what can be said now? Since everything is Already Centralized , there will come a time where everyone has to declare their bitcoin because it is not Allowed and those who make Transactions with bitcoin anonymously will be arrested, because even the mixers no longer allow them, which seems absurd to me, but hey. What is going to be done, here what matters is that the casinos start to be a little more permissive, what a good way to offer what People want , more Freedom , more things without so much KYC , not Sticking everything to the regulations the licenses that is something that we are because of those licenses, therefore we are people who must Stop and slow down everything at the right time, otherwise everything will really happen at a time that in each casino account we will have to put our face picture.
2158  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Reckless gambling starts after a win round. on: December 23, 2023, 01:47:10 PM
It always starts when they couldn't control their emotions or greed, they would surely come back and risk more once they experience a huge win.
It is always the thirst that would drive someone back even if they could ruin their life, I am not just implying on gambling but also in other things as well.
Once they get the pleasure or experience something that they like, they would surely comeback for more it is always the start of addiction.


And you will start feeling that emptiness when you win, OP's assessment mostly happened as there are many gamblers who experienced that win, starts thinking that they can easily repeat everything  over and over, they want to please that desire which eventually they can't control things around gambling.

It's always a must that you have that control, even you experienced that win, you'll not be feeling that adrenaline to play for more,
Just pure entertainment and nothing else..

Sometimes we as players have ideas about how a bad streak begins and sometimes it coincides that it could be a pattern, and that is not the case, the casino, the games of chance, the factor of randomness can make us see that things can be a way when in reality they are not like that, we always look for an explanation of why we had that loss, maybe he will tell us if he had done this or that would it have been the same? or maybe not? Those things are the ones that we wonder if they can be like that, and that's where the speculation begins, what I can really say about this is that the negative streak or the streak of good luck can start at any time, we can be winning and suddenly losing and then continuing on a losing streak, then if we are on a winning streak and then a losing streak begins it is another option, but as I said before, it is just what is about to happen, as the game indicates it is like that, just We must not forget that the game is a way of seeing things as they should be, that the vexation of the family is always present.

When we are about to win or something, we can lose and that becomes consecutive times, and I can say that the losing streak begins when we are about to have a great win, but things are not like that, that is why In casinos one as a player must accept things as they are, we must understand that when there are profits we must take advantage of taking them and without complaining in the slightest because it is something that we are winning, so as far as we can, withdrawing is the best option. There is no other way, with that, things can manifest themselves in different ways and thus be able to avoid spending more money and not fall into an addiction, which is what one as a player must always take care of, because there is nothing worse than that, it is something that I don't wish on anyone, and whoever has it has to attack that urgent problem.
2159  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can somebody make a successful career in gambling on: December 23, 2023, 04:46:19 AM
Listen, even that few percent you are talking about is just a mirage because there is absolutely no person that gambles comfortably with all assuraty of winning and making it a means of living. I believe gambler that do this are already develop in their real life career and are already making millions of dollars just like the way drake the musician and other celebrity gambler are going with their gambling hobby.
People don't gamble with the assuraty of winning because gambling itself is a game of probabilities so you don't expect a game of probability to come with any sureity it's only you taking chances and hoping to be a lucky by every trial but then let's not forget that skills and luck gives you a better chance at gambling than making just random picks.

This skill and luck is what some other gamblers depend on and continues gambling regardless of how much they loose to the casino gamblers who gamble with some level of surety are not only the wealthy ones who have got another source of income and do not depend on the proceed from gambling to make ends meet but also experienced gamblers aswell also at some point gamble with every form of surety because they are very sure with their experience they have a very good chance of winning, another persons who do such are those who have almost nothing to lose probably they just gave gambling a trial to have fun regardless of how wealthy or poor they are.

Well, we are but we always seek to win in whatever it is, if we are doing an activity as simple as being in the casino playing, it is normal for us to enter with hopes of being able to have more money, but in the face of this we have to keep our feet on the ground. earth and not build castles in the air, because basically when we are looking for a way to compensate for what we want to earn, it is more so when we have a lot of money, we want to multiply it, be it with investments or something like that, but when we start to think that we are doing something Badly we have to buy, because we realize that we can lose, and that is something that stops anyone, I have always said on many occasions that caisnos are places where we must do things with great intelligence, in fact those who have more ´s knowledge of financial culture they know that when we are doing something wrong when it comes to money.

But success, in the casino, means that we must do things well and win money, there is no other way, because what is the point of us handling Everything related to the game very well, and that we can make a difference in that? What's the point if we Stick to the fact that everything has a reason, and that reason is what we say if we know but we don't win But we lose money, for me that is a resounding failure, because in a casino what matters is having money, and Without money there is no possibility of winning, so how could we do there ? If things are not right to do it? We don't have to start investing, we in the game to be Successful we must win, and that winning means earning money, the rest is not being successful, it is simply being something else or being another player, for me in the casino the Things are measured like this, and the system itself indicates it , people are left with nothing being in an addiction because their problem is money, and from there there is Nothing to do.
2160  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Success or Fail? - Talking about Gambling as a major income on: December 23, 2023, 04:24:26 AM
~snip~
That's right, they have to look for other jobs that are more real than looking for income from gambling which is not clear and will give them luck, because that will only make them suffer losses, not only will they not succeed easily, but in my opinion it is almost impossible to make gambling a source of income. The main thing is, it won't work, because the factor of winning that is difficult to get is real. With the difficulty of winning in gambling, they suffer a lot of financial losses, also because of that they will lose more than many things, not just financially. it is impossible to get a stable income from gambling, the possibility is that they will only lose a lot not win, so getting income from gambling is impossible, even if they spend a lot of money,  it means they have fallen into a gambling trap where they have become addicted to gambling, which is difficult to overcome. healed. If someone else wins, it doesn't mean that we can also win because everyone's luck is basically different,  so don't copy other people with as much effort as we can, it won't be the same.

Instead of spending a lot of money on gambling, I think it's better to spend a lot of money on real life where we can see what we bought and can use it.
By getting a job, at least they can get their salary, and if they feel their salary is still not enough, they can work part-time to get an additional salary, which they can use to meet their living needs, and they can also get extra money for gambling. But that's not the goal of getting an additional job that can provide more money for gambling, but with that additional salary, they can have more salary for other more important things. Gambling as a source of income will not work for most people because the losing factor is greater than the winning factor, so they will only experience even bigger losses. Due to the greater possibility of losing, they should think about never using gambling as a source of income. They will only feel the loss of a lot of money, which might cause them to go bankrupt, so they will regret it later. And before that happens to novice gamblers, it is better for them to immediately limit their gambling activities rather than having them go deeper into gambling so that it will be difficult for them to get out of gambling.

And it's even better if they can save money for their future. It can help them change their future for the better because, with these savings, they can plan for what they want to achieve. And with discipline and good planning, they can achieve their targets.
You are completely right, having a job things change and can be much better, first because you are ensuring that you have a good future, at the time you work you are generating secure money, which is necessary to at least eat well and cover needs, it is something normal, and if there is time and energy left, the best thing is to look for another part-time job to have extra money, which is sometimes so difficult to achieve and be able to bet in a casino, but that money should be used only for entertainment Obviously everything is in the moment of being in the casino we are looking to win, that is something obvious, but you have to try to keep in mind that it is a casino, and casinos have their house advantage and you have to see that things are like that That is to say, we cannot and do not have the capacity to overcome the house advantage, we can only do other things, try to play and at the moment of being lucky if we win we must withdraw the money to take advantage of things well, the rest is It's difficult to do something, I always talk about withdrawing because, just like in trading, if the money is not withdrawn, it is reinvested and can be lost.

This gambling thing is easy and difficult at the same time, because in both cases things can turn out to be very good when it comes to making money quickly and effortlessly, but to be lucky enough to do it at once ? It is somewhat reckless to take a risk to do something like that, in fact I always consider the option of saving, but before that there is another option that Personally seems much better and more appropriate to me, which is to buy bitcoin, it does not matter if the price falls as usual. Let's face it, the important thing is to wait patiently, because bitcoin will rise in price and it will rise too much, you just have to know how to wait , so that the moment it rises, well, that's something great and a lot more can be done, something is sure to be wrong, I prefer to put my money in Bitcoin than in a bank, of course is my way of thinking.
