There is plenty of games today, one in action already, Tobol - Ferencvaros 0:0 at halftime. HJK - Riga FS, HJK is favorites here, but here I go with BTTS @1.85. Bodo/Glimt is heavy favorites against Klaksvik, but I tend to go with under 3.5 bet @1.77. Teams from Faroe islands is difficult to play, they can park effective bus and they're playing dirty football. I go with home ML in games Slovan - Dinamo Batumi and main bet is Maribor win @2.00 against Shakhtyor.

Not sure about them. They have beatable opponents in their path to 3rd round, but I wouldn't be very surprised if they won't go through. I'll skip their today's game, to tricky.

Yeah, almost every time when I see draw of qualifiers, I laways confuse these teams. But this time Hibernians is team from Malta, not Scotland.

UEFA Women's Euro 2022 begins starts this Wednesday. 16 teams will play in 4 groups. There isn't much football this summer until big leagues will begin, so, I made topic for this competition. Opening game on Wednesday will be played between host England and Austria.
Here is main favorites to win according to bookmakers:

Not great, not terrible day in betting - 2 wins and 2 losses. In general, probably there was just one surprise that Cluj failed to beat Pyunik. I watched few games. Ballkani - Zalgiris was terrible level game. Away draw for Zalgiris isn't bad result, considering that Ballkani dominated game. As I said, Lech - Qarabag is tricky game, Lech won it 1:0, but they weren't significantly better. Shamrock Rovers beat Hibernians 3:0, well, it was game of different level teams. Vikingur remains in the fight. They were losing 3:1, had 10 players on the pitch for 10 minutes, but late goal made score 3:2 and 2nd leg still will be interesting.

There is some games with really good value. I'm going with TNS win at home against Linfield @1.85. Last season TNS played very solid in qualifiers, while Linfield is playing Brittish football and they're not good level.
Odds for Malmo and Shkupi wins is low, so I'm making parlay with them.
Another my bet is Cluj away win @1.53 against Pyunik. Lech - Qarabag is most interesting game today, but I skip it, too tricky. But I'll risk with Zalgiris win away against Balkani @2.20.
When betting it's important to pay attention that for some teams it's first game of season, while for others it's mid season.

I don't have merit distribution policy like BlackHatCoiner. I usually simply give 1 merit in most cases. I don't have any specific reason why I don't give more. Maybe it's old habbit from early days of merit system when I had very limited number of sMerits. But I must admit that I send merits too rarely.
I never thought simply meriting post isn't enough and I have to send him some BTC as appreciation. I'm not even sure that majority of users have Bitcoin addresses in their profiles. Though, I remember sending some tips to user who helped me a bit and also for another user who provided free design service. But both these things happened before merit system.

I wouldn't say that there is no contention in this league. It's not like German or French leagues where they have one dominant team. Yeah, Brugge is slightly ahead others, but not that much. And we don't need to look for examples very far. Like last season when Union who got promoted from 2nd division where leading whole regular season and won it. Later they weren't able to keep 1st place in playoffs, but their example shows that even small team can fight for title in this league. There isn't just Brugge and Anderlecht. Genk, Antwerp and Gent is also contenders.

I'm not rooting for any country in EURO 2022, I just support my country national team which where far from qualifying to main tournament. But I'm definitely going to watch this tournament, which already starts this Wednesday.
I really enjoyed last World Cup, I watched some Champions league games too and level of game was way higher than I expected. Main favorites to win EURO is Spain, England, France, maybe Netherlands and Sweden.

You're right about high scoring games. Usually it happens because level difference between teams is big, there isn't that many equal level teams like in men football. But women football is gaining popularity, it was amazing to see Barcelona women playing Champions league games in Camp Nou with over 90 000 spectators. Other teams also started to play in big stadiums, rather than in some training pitch.

I wouldn't call it miracle or help from God. It's level of engineering saved him. Without it, any miracle wouldn't help to save him in such crash.
Few more words about race. Leclerc have right to be furious. He still fighting for the title and he had perfect chance to reduce gap from Verstappen when he got little points. But no, Ferrari decided to gift win for Sainz.

It was such good race that's difficult to summarize everything in one post. That fight in last laps. Sainz, Perez, Hamilton, Leclerc and even Alonso got involved - it was amazing to watch.. Finally first win for Sainz - it's well deserved. I'm a bit surprised that Perez didn't got penalty - he pushed his opponents out of track twice. And very solid race from Hamilton. Ferrari strategy again leaves questions, why they didn't changed tyres for Leclerc during safety car?
And first carrer points for Mick, P8 is very solid result and he was so close to overtake Verstappen. This result isn't lucky coincidence, he really had good pace.

I think it's normal thing that they didn't showed replay until they know that driver is ok. They're doing same after all big crashes. And after they showed it - that crash was worse than I thought. The way how Zhou car flew into barriers and fence was so scary. It's incredible that after such crash he ended without serious injuries
@tokeweed, initially I didn't like Halo too, but I already changed my mind few seasons ago. I already lost count how many lifes it already saved.

Finally it's first pole for Sainz. But I'm afraid that he won't be able to convert it into first win. Today we had rainy condition, tomorrow it should be dry track, so, big factor of unexpected outcomes is gone. Max have everything in his hand to take another win.
But real hero of today is Latifi or GOATifi. First time in Top 10, 22 seconds behind the leader .

2010-2012 is very early year of Bitcoin, I'm not really sure that tthere was Bitcoin PTC back then, or at least it wasn't marked in the history. Btcclicks name mentioned in this thread few times, but I'm not really sure that's this website that you're looking for, it obly started in 2013.

Did Neobux ever had Bitcoin as payment option? I had account there from 2015 and I can't remember them having Bitcoin payment option. Maybe it was a bit earlier and they later removed it.

Maybe my opinion will be a bit unpopular, but I don't understand such negative attitude towards centralized exchanges. Yes, I'm all in for decentralized exchanges, but people choose to use centralized exchanges for various reasons. Leave this option for them. Centralzed exchanges always will have their place in the market (probably not small), mainly because of regulations, especially when it comes to dealing with fiat.

I also think that these odds for Hamilton win is because of home race factor. I just want to correct you that Vips didn't called Hamilton nigga. It happened while he was gaming and streaming it on Twitch. And I think that reaction against him was too harsh. Terminate contract just because of one bad word which wasn't even directed against any specific person. While Verstappen calls Stroll mongol and there is zero reaction after it.

In recent days name of Konashnenkov were mentioned few times here. So, finally someone spend some time and debunked his lies in detail. So, how surprising, but according to him, Russia destroyed more Ukraine army hardware than they actually have. For example, they destroyed 84 Bayraktar drones, 20 more than Ukraine ever had:

Russian forces left famous Snake island. Russia called it as good will sign and they finished tasks here, but they forget to mention it was under powerful and effective rocket artillery attacks from Ukraine:
https://www.cnn.com/2022/06/30/europe/snake-island-russia-ukraine-invasion-intl/index.html
Russia and Ukraine made big POW swap, including quite big number of Azov troops. I remember someone saying that there will be no mercy for these "nazis":

Offcourse that I'm reading unmerited posts. Merits is just an extra factor. I decide which posts to read using other factors. First is layout of posts. If it's huge quote or wall of text without paragraphs, I usually ignore such posts. I also paying less attention to posts made by 1xbit and shitcoin bounty participants, but I can't say that I completely ignore it. Also, there is some member names stuck in my mind which I remember that's simply not worth to read their posts. But ignore unmerited posts, I don't do it.
But what I can say that I'm paying much more attention to posts which got a bit more merit.

I don't know from where did you got that number 1000 killed. It was said that there was about 1000 people inside, but it's only estimate numbers. And 18 people killed is only initial number. Many were not found under wreckings, so, this number is likely to grow.

Can't wait for race in Silverstone. I was sure that they will have sprint race there like last year, but now I see that we will have it next week in Austria.
Last year innSilverstone we had one of the biggest season contraversies with Hamilton and Verstappen crash. Now Verstappen and Leclerc is clearly favoured by bookmakers, but strangely, Hamilton goes 3rd, above Perez and Russel, what is a bit strange IMO.

I think that these who want will always find ways to spam, no matter it's football, cricket or chess thread, even if they don't know even basic rules of game. Can't speak about cricket, but I often see spammers posting their shit about sports they have no clue at all. It's basketball, hockey, olympics and so on. But yeah, there is much less spam in topics other than football, soI prefer to discuss there about less popular sports, rather than football.
BTW, there is so much discussion in Gambling discussion board about sports itself, that name of board don't even corresponds name of it.

I'm not sure that's worth wasting time debunking Konashnenkov lies, but ok. Yesterday I posted screenshot from store telegram channel made week before attack where they said that from that date they're not going to close store during air alerts. Offcourse, someone who made such stupid decision will have to take responsibility for it.

It's neither anonymous, neither private. Bitcoin is pseudo anonymous currency. And with details of every wallet, transaction and etc on public blockchain, it simply can't be private. If you want anonymous currency with privacy, you should look at other coins like Monero, Zcash and others.
Offcourse, lot of things depends on how you use Bitcoin. If you're using centralised wallets, reuse same addresses multiple times and etc, about what privacy we can talk about?
