When money is solely the motivation of most gamblers, do you think many of them even look after their health not to speak about the addiction and bad prowess in gambling? The reason why many people gamble today is because they want to stylishly double that money, so the least thing they want to think about is the frequent discuss addiction in gambling.

I think one of the ways you can access addiction is seeing how many times you have taken a break from gambling atleast a months and not having the urge to come back to play it or even facing outside life without even thinking about it despite watching your favorite games. In addition, also taking a time to review the time you have spent online gambling. I don't think it's healthy for any person to stay more than 6 hours online gambling unless you are an idle person who lack job or any other things to do and you know as the say, an idle mind is a devil workshop, idleness brings addiction in gambling.

Arsenal has been the most laughed team in the last 16 years without a Premier League but somehow, the system has  favour them in the last 2 years, don't you think they hve tried enough to win the Premier League. I think out of domestic leagues in Europe, Premier League is the one with teams that has the lowest disparity of points and that's because the teams are all struggling to take the first place but I think if not for Manchester City dominance in these League, we can't say that Liverpool are better than Arsenal this season, at least in this league so far.


Liverpool had more chances that Manchester City in yesterday match but because center forwards were faster than their legs, they were having more offsides in that maych, they had about 6 offsides that contributed to many of their goals been disallowed but Manchester City were very over confidence, there was aggressiveness written all over their faces especially the way Walker was defending yesterday. Sometimes, I do have hope in Manchester City but there over confidence is making it seems they will lose out in one or two games soon.

If I don't trust my own instincts on predictions, whey should I trust another person? That's like belittling myself and perhaps I have inferiority complto think that another gambler is better than me. Gambling isn't a rocket science where you have to derive formulas to have an escape velocity to win games, even unserious and uneducated person do win from gambling without doing much. Each day that passes by, there is an opportunity that if yiu try it out just one time, you will win even with multiple games.

However, there are other punters(sport bettors) that are naturally inclined with gift of betting, these guys make money from betting, makes life from betting and also makes investment from gambling, I do follow them and play their games sometimes when I'm too busy to make my own pick on predictions but it's not all the time and doesn't disregard my own predictions, I believe on my own bet more than any other person. Do also know that when you believes in outside predictions, you should be prepared with anything comes after; most of the time loss.

99% of people that comes invest in crypto are short term investors that are hoping to sell at the top but most them end up with nothing or even have the initial capital they invested. Instead of some of them to sell and take their minimal lost, they watched their investment wash down most especially the people that invested in altcoins. These coins seems to be the most profitable coins in every bull run but when they collapse, the damage is more than what you can make in a year.

Take a significant profits when you have achieved much or just remove 50% of what you have gained together with your investment. If the rest appreciated again, sell another 50% of profits and leave the rest. By the time you observe some anomalies in the market, kindly sell the rest and sit back. If you study the market and it's suitable enter again, repeat the process but if the market becomes bloody, stay away a while and come back when you think it's okay to invest again.

You are trying to ask DCA aka dollar cost average, you can do it daily by following daily candle, weekly candle of even Monthly candle as you have asked. But the way you do it is very important as well as the timing. Now thag you ask, I want to believe you are a monthly earner, which means you depend on pay check, so if you want to do dollar cost average now, I'm not sure is the right time because right now Bitcoin is trading almost at the all time high and nobody knows exactly where the price will go next whether up or down.

If you are looking at the long perspective of Bitcoin as investment, then I will give you green flag to proceed, buy Bitcoin monthly and hold "if and if" you are not selling now. It would have been perfect if this was done se months back before this bill run begins, you would have rest of mind doing the month my stuff during the bear market to now.

This is not the first time we are seeing such things. Grayscale Bitcoin were there before Bitcoin ETF were later approved by the security exchange commission (SEC) and what happen when GBTC were been traded? There impact on Bitcoin was liquidity which was the Bitcoin they were buying ast the trusts funds were increasing but that doesn't threaten Decentralization, the security and the scalability, more like they were in their own world of Bitcoin(GBTC) and native Bitcoin was doing it own and the Bitcoin they hold that time wasn't upto 1% of the total circulation, I don't think this ETF will be able to manipulate anything other than the price.

Whatever Blackrock or Microstrategy who are now the biggest holder of Bitcoin does, they can influence the price but on the properties of Bitcoin, they can't do anything and I hope they don't use investors Bitcoin like the way FTX did back then when they were using peoples fund and thinking of way to move the price further to recoup what they have spend within the company. Don't trust anything related to Bitcoin companies such as GBTC or any other Bitcoin ETFs.

Domestically, Barcelona is more pre-ready to knockout Napoli in these League than Napoli is ready to trash Barcelona. The fact that Napoli is sitting in number 7 in the Seria A makes me have less confidence in them than Barcelona who is now in form coming for Real Madrid in the Laliga table and since Xavi want to take his leave after the season, conquering this league to the end might be one of the dearest things for him to achieve before offset into another club.

So far from the beginning of this season, they didn't started well, they have win 12 matches, draw 8 and loss 8, that's average performance in my dictionary But Barcelona has gotten only 3 loss which is fair. However, Napoli looks solid in their last 5 games but Barcelona are solid as well, there is no way that Napoli is going to win Barcelona this week except if Barcelona decided to shame LaPorta as usual.

You would have thought these two teams are playing Champions League final, none of them want to fold into any arm of loss in these games.
If not for that fantastic corner kick De Bruyne gave to stones, I feel Liverpool have high chance of winning this match because they have had more than a goal that was offside but all attempt of Manchester City are buried right in their front, their attacking men are doing well but Haaland seems neutralize, he is not given a single chance to do his average tapping that he is used to and I like that. With the goals been equal, I think the two teams will move from defensive and offensive game to more attacking games on any opportunity henceforth.

Even without MCGin, I think Tottenham dominated Aston Villa from the beginning of the match but the red card made it worse as their defense became weaker despite having 5 men guiding the central midfield. But I think Aston Villa were pissed and not having much interest in towards the end of the match, why concede two goals under 2 and half minutes. If Tottenham should play their next match and win which is likely, Aston will be drop from fourth place in the table.

If third party slot developers were to launch this game on casino, don't you think it will not be profitable for casino and the developers? Let me explain in details.
Casinos usually just provide the medium for gamblers to have access to games but game developers do the work and some percentage goes to the game developers when gamblers lose and more profit goes to the casino but since developers don't work with one casino, they tend to gain more. However, since the percentage go's to the any of the players, how will the casino and game developers earn big amount of money considering the cost of set up and other costs.

Unless if the casino is going to make players earn 50% of what they bet while the rest goes to the casino pocket, it is going to be a difficult business in the long run because it might not be patronized like the way casino games are going to be patronized.

The first question you need to ask is has Doge which is regarded as the king of memes surpassed Bitcoin? Since they are the first to start the rally and trend of memes, I think the other meme coins like Pepe, Bonk, Floki and many shit coins need to flip doge which is right now $23B by market cap and Bitcoin which is around $1.3T, the extra billions on Bitcoin are far many times bigger than the market cap of Doge, now do the maths and see if this is possible or you are just doing normal impossible assumptions.

The investors knows what they are doing, if you think any memes coin is going to ever replace Bitcoin by dominance, then you need to quick check history of Ethereum and how it was been push to replace Bitcoin but as they got tired of the hype, they stop because Bitcoin is Bitcoin and altcoins are altcoins.

You need to know that life offers each of us two things, that's opportunity and preparation but sadly the system confined us in 1 setting, only a few have the two and which we see today as successful people. You see that people have ideas, what it will take to build a business, what it takes to turn ideas on paper to realization but they don't have the resources to actualise those ideas, they don't have the money to do it while some people may have the money but don't have real business they can try out, even if they try many do fail in the business because the idea is not worth investing. I guess the person you met has all it takes to build one but doesn't have the resources.

Though, be careful about some ideas, not everything that is penned down and discussed do work in reality, in fact, every business succeeds on paper and is too good to be real but as soon as you put them into money and expect net profits, that's when you start to see the challenges the business have, some can be location, vicinity and even materials, be careful of how you accept things you called real ideas and vision.

What a long ride. I was a great pleasure working with you and FJ. Thank you for all the weeks.

I'm not even understanding the state of this bullrun and altcoins influence. This time last last year, we have Defi everywhere booming and making mad trends and green candles everywhere that even the ICO projects that survived to the bullrun has to rebrand to Defi and all pumped like crazy but this time, there hasn't been a unique altcoins except for these AI stuff that pop out from different corners of telegram, discord and X and so far, they don't have anything special just noises.

New trend is the reason why we have many scams but I'm not seeing any and I think many people are familiar with what we have already like the wallet scams and private keys extortion, wallet poisoning, and buying into fake projects. If we have new trends, it will be easier to study how they are so as to expose the potential scams that people might get into but still I advice everyone to remain safe. Not just scammers but from hackers as well.

Unless the two of you use a platform like a centralized p2p where exchange can act as a middle person, you don't want to send your Bitcoin to someone you don't know right? There is very high risk sending your Bitcoin to a vendor you know nothing about unless there is a collateral involved and even at that, you need to get hold of something worth to be collaterized of your bitcoin.

I don't really think a vendor or a Marchant need to stay hidden or anonymous to buy or sell Bitcoin from people, they are usually open and transparent so as to gain the public trust since bitcoin transactions are irreversible and no person will want to trade Bitcoin with you except in situation where you want to use a middle man as escrow, like the ones we have in this forum. In this case, the buyer, the seller and the escrow identify remain anonymous since the forum escrow are trusted for their services.

This is nothing but mind games and mind manipulation. This is a very simple thing to clear doubts, pick a month and use a big amount you know that you can afford to lose to play for the whole days in that month and check the result and choose another month test the same thing again but this time, it should be an amount you think it's small to gamble with in accordance to your financial pockets. By the time you are done, you can calculate the ROI and then do the maths together or because of unforeseen circumstances in gambling use the different amounts for the same game simultaneously, you will be surprised that they are all the same.

There is nothing like a small amount in gambling or a big amount, they don't affect your win in gambling, I have seen a small amount to play the same game with someone who used big amount and we both lost together due to a club that we depend on badly failed to score just a single goal, none of us that day blame the amounts but the team. I have also win from big amount and also small amount, so stop this believes.

Real Madrid was quick to equalize the goal through Vinicius but the lead was kind of difficult for them. I didn't underestimate Leipzig but they kind of gave me pressure that they were prepared for yesterday's match and because Real Madrid had a goal from their first leg, I gave them a straight win x1 to win that match even when the odds was small but I was really terrified in that game because my risk ratio was small but the game changes everything around that game, at some points Leipzig odd became almost the same with that of Real Madrid but glad that they snap out of it quickly.

My only fear now is what Real Madrid is going to do in the next game, they seem to be in super excited mood to score a total of 6 goals in both the first and second leg, but sometimes, I have the feeling that Real Madrid has had it smoothly with them when they remove them from the Semi-final in 2021/2022 season despite how hot they were in that season, Real Madrid came out smooth and fine.

AI is real, everyone must have come across one or two but let's stop this hype for once and have a real discussion about AI. Since 2010 was the time I have been hearing how computers will change our ways of life and improve health, that I have seen some changes but not up to how the hype was back then, I think we are now in the same era of AI where everyone want to say something nice about these artificial intelligence. What has AI really changed other the writing of articles and, the ability to make improvements to written materials and graphics, after these things, I have not seen anywhere the use of AI has changed completely, they say they are going to take away the jobs but I haven't seen any sign.

AI is not going to change anything much about gambling, the companies are watching and besides use of external software to gamble is highly prohibited. The highest place I think AI might work is in some casino games, football predictions can't work on AI because past events data isn't sufficient to make predictions in football and in other sports games.

I think everyone is entitled to what they like, people like to drag players and because they don't have such vibes again, they find it boring. Those days when fans would compare Drogba's skills to that of Kaka, compare that of Ronaldo to Messi, compare that of Ronaldino to Okocha but today, the skills are not displayed to brag about and it is making football lose taste for some people, you can see that even when Messi and Ronaldo don't see each other again since Messi left Europe, some people still compare their statistics just to feel among and get their self banter for social engagements.


Even without a striker, Real Madrid has only loss one match in this league, they draw most often matches they are supposed to loss which is a good move to me, the teams that have all the best strikers are not even topping the table. If they win this league by this structure, I will give more accolades to Ancelottie for his style of managing this players but I believe that by next season, one of them between Rodrigo, Mbape(when he finally comes) and Bellingham will be turned to a full striker.

In everything that will come out of these matches, Arsenal have a better chance than any other team. First, Arsenal is going to play against Brentford and no doubt the Gunners are going to win this match and whatever happens after between Manchester City and Liverpool is up to them. If Manchester City, then they are definitely going up and Liverpool will come lower or even below Arsenal since they have a potential 3 points win from Brentford. I'm not sure if Arsenal is going to win Manchester City but if they can do it in the first leg, they can also do it in the second leg.

However, Liverpool should win against Manchester City, that is going to be the next thing that is going to stop them from winning this league, we can see that Liverpool is not making too much noise or attention seeking team, they win in silence even in Europa League, they are dominating and killing every match, they are the team to also fear if Manchester City is really concern about their success in this league.
