Placing high trust in the game can make you mentally disturbed when you fail to win a bet, as long as the game is not finished, anything can still happen. He should have learned from several football plays that things can change at the last minute, nothing is certain as long as the match has not officially ended.
An incident that happened to your friend because he was too obsessed with winning the game, even though in the game there are only possibilities, losing and winning. I prefer to put the outcome of the game as luck, they must be ready to accept whatever the outcome of the game is, if you are not ready to lose, never try to place a bet on any game.

looking at the OP case, it does not seem like it was because he was not ready, but because his friend had probably never been close to winning a large amount like what the OP said, so he felt very disappointed when he saw how much it would be if he could win the whole match and was really hoping to get the whole amount. but failed so he felt deep disappointment even with only $1. I dont think he would think about the amount of his bet but he felt disappointed because he failed to get that win.
and if I understand OP case it seems like his friend bets on sports betting with multi bets which gets big odds with $10 to $2500 whereas in sports betting there are lots of surprises and multi bets are always risky if they have very high odds and he should understand the risks this was to treat the feelings of disappointment in his mind.

Manchester City until now played without De Bruyne and they can still achieve 3rd position in Premier League and won 2 matches in Champions League. They're already been great so far, even though De Bruyne is currently a Manchester City's heart.

De Bruyne will also get older, it's just a part of regeneration and Manchester City seems quite success since they're still in good form.
Yes, Manchester City is still performing well even without De Bruyne, thanks to other quality midfielders like Julian Alvarez and Phil Foden who are in excellent form. However, Manchester City is involved in several competitions, including the Community Shield, UEFA Super Cup, FA Cup, EFL Carabao Cup, Premier League, and the Champions League. So, De Bruyne's return is crucial for Manchester City's ambitions.
Overall, Man City has a relatively good performance even though they are playing without Kevin De Bruyne. But if we look at their last 4 matches, Man City seems to have experienced a decline in performance, and I think this is a problem that Guardiola must immediately address. Kevin De Bruyne is one of Man City's key players, and it is very likely that Man City will be a lot stronger when Kevin De Bruyne can play again.
players you mentioned are indeed key players but in fact Guardiola has been able to maximize the talents of other players but still without the presence of De Bruyne Man City still cannot perform as perfectly as before and Guardiola has also tried to use Rodri as a substitute for De Bruyne but still not optimal and I think Guardiola is still thinking about looking for a replacement for De Bruyne who has equal abilities but its still a very long time to wait for the transfer window to open again.

That is why for me it is always better to gamble alone, even if your spouse knows it she should not interfere as interfering will bring back those things which they too escalate quickly and can disrupt for the worse the relationship.
Having your secret private place for your entertainment and other activities that you may not want your family to distract you from is very necessary, reason why is important to have your own personal office in your house, this will give you an organized setting that will place your mental alertness in the active position.
to respond to this case, to be honest, I am a little concerned about hearing stories like this because a good relationship means telling each other the truth and if you gamble secretly without your wife or girlfriend knowing, in the long run it will actually make the relationship worse because everything that is hidden in the end will be found out.

for me it would be better if you spoke honestly to your partner to say if you have gambling activities but give a subtle understanding such as you gamble only using the remaining money that is not used for needs or only use small amounts and I am sure if you are successful in providing a clear understanding. Be gentle with your partner, he will definitely give you the freedom to gamble using smaller amounts and in fact, if your gambling activities are known beforehand by your partner, he can be one of the people who always reminds you to always gamble responsibly.

because not everyone has enough space to create a small office at home. so its better to tell the truth than to be found out, which in the long run will become more complicated.

Yes, we just need to have fun in gambling so we don't focus too much on winning. After all, getting a win in gambling is difficult and not easy to get. Even many people have experienced big losses. They should think about how much budget they need to prepare for gambling and not exceed their budget limit so that they don't lose too much.
having fun at gambling is very necessary and planning a small budget is also very important but here what is more important is just good self control and the mindset to gamble healthily without betting large amounts and knowing when to quit betting. in this case we also have to really understand how the gambling platform works where we always win and we always lose and if we occasionally win it is a bonus from the entertainment we enjoy and that when we have to quit.

and if one day a different problem occurs, such as the feeling of wanting to continue gambling, this is the result of poor control and signs of addiction coming to dominate the mind and at this time we should start positive thoughts by giving our minds the fear of gambling or fear lost too much so they not keep thinking about gambling.

Sven Ulreich performance not really quit well with Bayern Munich in this season, have played 9 matches all competition between Bundesliga and UEFA Champion League have conceded 10 goals with 6 goals in domestic league and 4 goals in Champion League. Seems very poor performance and Bayern Munich not try to sign new goals keeper to be competitor for Sven Ulreich. Have rumor to sign David De Gea but Bayern Munich not reach agreement deal actually De Gea have impressive performance with Manchester United and become free agent make Munich doesn't have spent money for transfer fees. Looking on Sven Ulreich performance, its not late for Bayern Munich sign new goal keeper waiting with Manuel Neuer from injury, still have many matches left and David De Gea as free agent can sign anytime without waiting with transfer window opening and already playing for Bayern Munich.
Naturally, I think it's not a loss to be a free transfer. But it seems Tuchel is not thinking about this. Even though Nuer is a good goalkeeper. But he's recovering and not necessarily playing well. This is because he has been 37 years old and it is not young anymore. De Gea is still 32 years old. It's still quite a while that he will have a career. Goalkeepers don't need much physical strength to run.
it makes sense if Tuchel tries to replace his goalkeeper with another more experienced player like De Gea but to be honest I actually dont see a big problem with Sven Ulreich as far as guarding Bayern Munich goal, hes not that careful, he just sometimes experiences carelessness and this is normal because all players will experiencing the same thing.

from several cases, I think a little that the reason Tuchel did not glance at De Gea seems to be because Tuchel thought that De Gea would not renew his contract at Man United because his performance had declined, so Tuchel doubted this and chose Sven Ulreich as his mainstay goalkeeper.

De Bruyne is a key player obviusly but i think Manchester City can sub him very well, in fact i really think this injury helped Manchester City thinking in the future of the team. Now they know they can play very good without him, so we can some news in the next summer transfers window.

Manchester City was not competitive due to the absence of key players, until they appointed Pep Guardiola in 2016/2017 EPL campaign, Pep is widely recognized as aggressive coach that has full ambition for the team to become great. He doesn't lack the full tendency but always curious about the performance of his team, ensuring for placing alternatives options in situations were the intended primary ones failed.  Kelvin De Bruyne is injured and has not been with Manchester City for months now, probably might return in January because he's gradually making some vital recoveries, most football lovers can't wait for Kelvin De Bruyne to start games on the pitch for the Citizens.
decline in Man City performance is more dominant in the problem of players who are injured and unable to appear on the field with their team and De Bruyne absence has had a big impact on Man City performance because all of this has been arranged in such a way as possible by Guardiola so that the team becomes stronger but the weakness is in composition. If the player is damaged or there is player injury, it will certainly have big impact because as I said earlier, everything has been arranged competitively by Guardiola and I will not worry about this problem because Guardiola is very experienced and has also really studied various player characters and he is currently looking for a temporary player who has very high quality talent to replace De Bruyne and the reason for temporarily replacing De Bruyne is because Guardiola is still very enthusiastic about getting another UCL title.

I guess I can't and don't want argue against it, but it somehow is saddening to know that we will probably not see a duel like that again, which we had when Messi was against Ronaldo. None of the two could have existed the same way without the other. I think this is what made La Liga a crazy league because these two guys lifted the quality of the entire league and also how the league was perceived around the globe. I remember streaming a clasico back at the time and the next day they reported how many people watched a "standard" La Liga game between Barcelona and Real Madrid. It was hundreds and hundreds of millions all around the globe. I don't know if we will ever get to see that again.
the history of past glories has ended and there will be a new era of the next generation of players for these two star players and maybe we really miss them but we also have to be able to get out of the past and look at the next generation of young people like for example Mbappe will come to Real Madrid and after that the star players Another young person arrives in Barcelona and that when we will see a large increase in the number of spectators again after the glory days of the new era coming with a talented young generation.
but even so, maybe it not be as interesting as in the past, but at least we will see the competition between star players in the two big La Liga teams.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi are currently not in the same station at all however both players play on teams other than top European teams. Ronaldo and his teammates should be ready for the next game they are going to have in the Saudi League against Damac and this team can't be a hard opponent for a team like Al Nassr which means Ronaldo can have a good chance to shine in this game.
However, the rates are very low for Al Nassr in the match.



even if Al Nassr is a favorite for bookies, we still have to be careful not to place too big a bet on Al Nassr because surprises could happen, but if you look at the depth of the Al Nassr players, they are very ready to beat Damac and Ronaldo is very enthusiastic about competing soon the meeting because he knew that Damac was not an equal opponent and was confident of scoring big in the match.
betting for -2 with odds @1.70 seems very good because at least Al Nassr scores 3 or more.

Mbappé may be a topic that keeps social networks, news outlets, among others, busy, but Madrid's interests are focused on young kids, not on players who are no longer in the way they like, Mbappé has a age that does not favor him, the Madrid directors know it and I think that they are not interested in players who are 25 or older, because they consider them old, and that they no longer bet like a young man who can be adapted to alleles, in the In the case of Mbappé, I don't see it as necessary, he doesn't play for PSG, he doesn't shine in the French national team, possibly they want him in Liveprool and I think he would do well there, because it is a place where if they want to have him and obviously he can shine, but I don't see it in white, I think Mbappé was too big for Madrid, since the day he preferred money and not greatness, in fact there are many memes about that on social networks.
I have a slightly different opinion from you if you say Mbappe only thinks about money, I think almost all the talented young players in european teams will most importantly think about their career because with a good career they can increase their market value so its natural that Mbappe thinks about money but that is a second thought and his main thought is that he wants to contribute his skills to the right team for a career in big competitions and the teams that can provide a path to the UCL are only Real Madrid or Man City but Mbappe current affinity is with Madrid.

I think Osimhen will leave the team. The problem he experienced would be the turning point in his Napoli career. If they really managed to convince him, Napoli officials should be congratulated. I still think he will be transferred to the Premier League and be successful there.
first is that he has a little problem with his own team and I dont need to say anymore, maybe everyone knows and this problem affects Osimhen performance, who is a little less enthusiastic about contributing to Napoli and the second problem is if Napoli fail in Serie A to get the title already It is certain that he will leave Napoli to look for a team that makes him more comfortable in his career and of course also the right team for a career in higher competition.
leaving Napoli and moving to the EPL is indeed the right choice, but the question is whether Napoli will let go of this player when he is a player that Garcia relies on.

Have internal problem with PSG during he won't extends his contract will over on June 2023, left few months later he will be free agent and I don't think PSG happy with this situation depend Mbappe not accept offer from Saudi Pro League who give more excited salary and they want agree release fee transfer above 300 million euro. Mbappe have dreaming winning UEFA Champion League but looks impossible if stay with PSG depend have any teams get bigger chance become the champion.
that the reason Mbappe said several times that he wanted to leave PSG and that has been happening since the transfer at that time and created pressing problems for Mbappe to have to stay at PSG for 1 season until the deadline as you said. Its only natural that he wants to get the experience of having a title at UCL because he has very reliable talent so if he can not get the experience of having title at UCL it will be a waste and if the Arab team wants to give Mbappe a bigger salary, still he will reject it before he gets the target he has to achieve, he will not leave the european team and if you look at the rumors currently spreading, Mbappe is close to team from La Liga and it seems very certain that Mbappe will come to Real Madrid.

 Sacking Ten  Hag won't change anything but rather would even cause more problems for the team cause the new coach might even find it more difficult to work under the glaziers that are only interested in the financial benefits they're getting from the club instead of making investments to help it grow.
problem point at Man United is not because of the coach but Man United lack of players at the moment but most people think badly of Ten Hag even though he is a reliable coach who has good experience and has even raised Man United from bad times in the past and if Man United sacked Ten Hag I will agree with you that things could have been worse. but even though people speculate like that, I still believe that Ten Hag will not be fired because Man United management knows how this problem happened and we have to see that change when this team gets new players in the transfer market.

Juventus this season no longer relies on Pogba, who has only played twice. and I'm sure Juve is also preparing to recruit several names.
however there will be many responses shown to Pogba. and for those who have worked with Pogba, of course it is important for them to also provide moral support.

whether he can return to his professional football career or not. he is not in great fitness, often injured and now has a drug case. if he decides to retire, I think he closed his career on a bad note. let's hope he has time to improve his name before retiring.
without Pogba, Juventus can still perform perfectly as it is now and that player also does not have any contribution at Juventus so losing Pogba not be problem for Juventus and on the one hand I see Juventus current performance is very good, they just need few players to add strength to attack line.

and regarding Pogba, there are actually a lot of people who feel sorry for his current condition and can only sit and mourn his own fate but however, this has been a risk that he has had to accept all this time and this is the negative impact players who use drugs. seeing that he is currently 30 and if he has to go through a rehabilitation period, it seems that it is not enough to continue his career in football because he has to go through rehabilitation period and injury problems.

Dortmund need money and making money by selling players is their main business. If these 5 players mentioned by you were in Dortmund's  squad at the same time, then Dortmund could have dominated Europe. They were also champions of the Bundesliga. Even for the Champions League title, there were hot favourites. But Dortmund have to make money. They will not keep any player in their squad for long. But the  Dortmund management is very talented. They can spot young talent. At the same time these talented players can be developed into experienced ones. If they didn't get it right, maybe we wouldn't have great players like Haaland, Lewa and Bellingham.
we have the same thoughts and I have previously said this regarding some of these players, but we cannot go against Dortmund decision to always prioritize selling players over the titles they have to win. If we look at Dortmund history, this team has always had talented players and has always been successful in creating new talents for them to sell to all european teams.
and if we want to count how many Dortmund players have been spread across European teams, its definitely a lot and I think its all just about the investors who fund the team and then get large amounts of that money.

and I also thought that in fact Dortmund is trying to prioritize titles in several competitions, of course the players who will be sold have very high value but for some reason Dortmund management does not try this method to get more money when player manages to score and bring victory in the competition like UCL.

until now, Dortmund fans can only hope that Dortmund will immediately end this way of working and occasionally win prestigious title.

I just tried to predict from the kill results of several these teams and all them were almost over 42.5

LGD has playing style that is almost similar to Team Liquid, which is very fast but has a lot of kills, but Team Liquid usually plays very fast with few kills. and for Nouns, I would be surprised if could beat Tundra who is TI11 champion.

I think, even though Monaco and Nice are currently in positions 1 and 2 in the Ligue 1 standings, but it still looks like Monaco and Nice cannot be said to be potential winners this season. Because after all, their points gap with PSG in the current Ligue 1 standings is not far, or does not have a wide gap. Therefore, basically PSG still has a chance to improve and overtake Monaco and Nice. Because basically PSG has champion quality, so with a close points gap like this it certainly doesn't make PSG lose its chance of winning the Ligue 1 trophy this season.
yep, exactly. PSG just have not given their best at the moment because I know this strategy is always used for top teams to give the other team the opportunity to get more scores but still have a small difference in points once the points reach greater big team like PSG will surprisingly appear consistent. to continue to get more points to shift their position and dominate at the top of the standings with more points.
there are still many matches and there will still be many changes after the transfer window has reopened and of course many teams will experience declines and there will also be many team whose performance will improve and I predict that in december there will be many changes.

Madrid have invested in great midfielder's, now it's time they move focus towards bringing in strikers who can serve and work well with these midfielder's.
They really just need one striker and the team should be good. Joselu can play as a back up striker and they already have young talented midfielders.
Getting Victor Osimhen in or Mbappe if he can play as a striker will complete the team. Osimhen will thrive with support from Vinicius Jr. and Rodrygo.

- Jay -
Real Madrid at the moment is very perfect, its just that they lack a striker and I also said this yesterday when Real Madrid was looking for a reliable striker to strengthen the attack line and achieve their target goal of getting the UCL trophy and the candidate from the rumors that I know is the player who currently being targeted by Madrid are Mbappe and Haaland. but for Haaland the possibility is very small to get this player because he is very comfortable in the EPL while the rumors about Osimhen I dont know about this rumor. but it does not matter if you can get Osimhen who is also very good because the quality of his talent is the same as Mbappe.

and regarding Josule, it seems like he is not a striker but is considered a very good backup striker because while replacing Vinicius position he always performs very well and I would agree if Joselu becomes the main player in La Liga and Viniciua becomes a second tier player in the UCL to maintain the players physicality.

I instead believe that Guardiola will be interested in young players that has long future to spend in the club. I also do not think that Guardiola will allow players like Gundigon and Mahrez to leave the club and in the end bring player as old as Toni Kross to play with him. His experience with Toni in Bayern is old enough to be forgotten and dwell on new people and new challenges.
In the other hand, Toni wanted to end his career in Madrid but was persuaded by Madrid management to help the club to play one more season. I am surprised Toni wants to continue playing. It is good and passionate although
Due to the absence of key players this season, the once-dominant Manchester City has crumbled, and Pep Guardiola will rebuild his club into an alternate configuration. Bringing in Toni Kroos won't help the Citizens; instead, they should look into various ways to sign outstanding players during the upcoming transfer window, which is one of the most effective ways to improve the team's performance. Toni Kroos won't try to leave Los Blancos this season; he wants to reach greater heights with the team that gave him his exceptional performance, accolades, and titles.
It is very likely that Toni Kroos will not just be let go by Real Madrid because he is also one of the key players at Los Blancos and for example, Man City can get this player, of course Toni Kroos can make a better contribution to replace the injured player because we all already know what is the talent of this player and when compared to De Bruyne, these two players have almost the same talent, but even so, it is impossible for Man City to bring in T Kroos.

so there are rumors about Man City being eyeing Mbappe, maybe this is Guardiola alternative to strengthen Man City performance but it is also very difficult to get Mbappe who is currently close to Real Madrid and I think these two teams will compete together to improve their performance to get additional players and to achieve a UCL degree.

Andrea Onana is not just supported by his former owners, but have also received backing and support indirectly from them. They have just told the world that he has the potentials of taking a club to the Champions League finals.
But returning to Inter Milan already? That's not going to happen, c'mon!

Andrea Onana is a top quality player, both with his legs and hands, he's just had a rough start here. With the end of the International games, I do hope he gets to keep a clean sheet against Sheffield United.
Man United current ugliness creates pros and cons, even worse, we speculate, such as blaming several parties who are not wrong, and one of them is Onana, who is the victim of bad criticism from all of us, whereas I believe this player has very good talent, its just that he has just been in the EPL it takes a little time to adapt and on the one hand, Man United defense line does not have a strong fortress to help the goalkeeper not concede.
I have said this several times but for some reason most people still blame Onana and then there is Ten Hag who is one of the parties criticized and is considered to be the cause of Man United declining performance even though this coach has made a very good contribution to Man United.

we have to be more patient to see the development of a team and I am sure that even though it looks like they failed in the UCL at the end of the season, MU will provide proof that this team is one of the big teams that has strength at the end of the season.
