Aston Villa has better goal productivity than Tottenham. But I see Tottenham still have a good chance of beating Aston Villa. This is an interesting match because the two teams are only 1 point apart. Tottenham will win that match and Aston Villa will remain in 5th place in the standings. Even though Aston Villa has more wins but it cannot be said that Aston Villa has better chances.

It is quite remarkable that if Aston Villa wins, Tottenham will be out of the top 4, but just recently (2 rounds ago) Tottenham was in first place. But it’s hard for me to believe in such an outcome, since three defeats in a row would be too unfair for Tottenham. I hope they stay in the title race. Overall, we are looking forward to a great tour with three big games at once.

On the other hand, the difference in points from the two is very thin now, the difference is only one point, although it cannot be used as a reference about who has a great chance of winning, but still if Tottenham loses again in this match then obviously they will be shifted to fifth in the standings. Honestly, I can't predict who will be able to win in this match, but certainly the two teams now have quite the same performance because in the previous two matches Tottenham lost and that means their performance has declined again.

Honestly for myself I wouldn't say it's unfair if Tottenham lost this match against Aston Villa, with that then yes their defeats are running in a row but I think it's quite reasonable because now Tottenham's performance is decreasing due to the two key players they got injured in the previous match against Chelsea. So yes with that then I will not expect too much victory for Tottenham because it might be quite difficult with conditions like this.

While gambling some people gamble with small amounts which is not very important for them, but for those who are new to gambling and not able to control themselves or play with something reasonable amount.
So I have a tip for them you can stick a real paper money note in front of your monitor which will remind you that money is hard to earn and play responsibly or don't play with big amounts.
the note will remind every time that how you earned that money, and if you are controlled and this tip is not very important for you them you can ignore it, but i found this helpful.
Having bills placed near you sounds like a good suggestion, but still, it might not be as helpful when gamblers can quickly get immersed through playing casino games. I sometimes have my wallet beside me while playing but it doesn't serve as the best reminder, unlike looking at my losses through my betting history. To me, it's easy to ignore something that's even in front of you once you're hooked on an activity like gambling. If reminders could help gamblers control themselves, they might be better off looking for an alternative that'll help them get their attention.

Your thoughts are very much correct because the bills before you while gambling would not be of any good stopping you from gambling but rather, it would make you gamble more because if you look at it the thoughts of paying it up would want you to generate more money and doing such would make you ignore the fact that you are gambling and possibly, if you are at loss, you would not mind damning the consequences to gamble more which is very risky and that is how one would keep gambling making loss back to back and chasing loss as well resulting to addiction just to meet up with bills and lots more.

True, that is the starting point of a gambler getting into debt as a result of not being able to manage his gambling activities. Someone who has the courage to borrow money just to gamble I think the level of addiction is very severe, they can't resist the urge to gamble even though on the other hand they don't have money but somehow they are so forceful in their lust. With that, they will start the cycle of borrowing to gamble and borrowing again to pay off the previous debt because the fact is that they can't get any winnings from gambling to be able to pay the debt.

Honestly, I really can't imagine what they will feel in such conditions, obviously there will be a lot of pressure, not only from the defeat that always dominates but from the factor of people who collect debts, obviously it will also be quite a big pressure. In fact it will only worsen their condition, because of course on the other hand there is absolutely no guarantee for anyone to win in gambling and that means it is not recommended if you look for alternatives such as borrowing money just to gamble with high hopes for victory.

as a regular gambler or healthy gambler, bad experiences do not need to be avoided, just as you said, learning from bad experiences for a regular gambler is a very valuable lesson for him and will usually be used as a benchmark for not repeating the same mistakes and avoiding the consequences gambling addicts who do bad things as other people say.

Good point, that is for those who have a healthy mindset about how to take care of their gambling activities, they will use those mistakes or those losses to prevent things from repeating and use it as well as basis when dealing with their gambling sessions, I guess there are so many differences in terms of taking things inside gambling.

We have all seen the bad side effects and how it will affect the mindsets of the person who loses control while involved in gambling, there are many things that the person can do, most are unusual and most are bad side effects of pleasing their desires.

Yes, that's good advice, but the problem is that it is difficult to get that mindset and I think that usually most of them are very rare to bring a healthy mindset to their gambling activities. For those who until now still have the mindset of gambling to seek victory then maybe they have to experience terrible things first in gambling such as for example a very painful defeat and whose impact affects their real life, and if something like that they have experienced then maybe yes as you said at least they will definitely feel kapok and do not want to be in such conditions anymore. With that means that it is very likely that they will be more careful and apply some restrictions for safety.

That's right, there are many examples of people suffering from the downturn of gambling, I think it's very common and we just have to learn from the mistakes of others or the downturn experienced by some other gamblers. Therefore, one way to prevent it is that we should not overdo it so as not to get into the trap of addiction, because obviously if we have entered that phase it is very difficult to recover our mindset.

On the other hand yes maybe you can tell about your gambling activities to one of your closest people who of course like you said on condition that they must be trusted in order to keep this secret, but on the other hand in my opinion you should not only tell it but also find the best solution to overcome your problems such as trying some actions to reduce or even stop, because after all the best thing is when you can get out of this activity so as not to cause any problems later.

Telling someone about your gambling lifestyle is not bad so far as the person knows how to respect boundaries and keeping secrets as the case maybe between the both of them. If you feel like telling someone about it, then it must be that person you trust enough to keep it to him or herself. However getting out of it, you must be prepared to do it because it wouldn't be that easy as you think it is as it has to do with addiction which has become part of the gambler lifestyle and would need some approach to gradually divert the mind of the gambler to another thing.

Yes, as I said above, as in general, gambling activities are quite negative in the eyes of the community, especially if their environment, including their family, forbids these activities, so with that, of course, if we really want to tell your close friend or for example a family member, then yes, as you also said, make sure that the person is trusted in terms of keeping your activities secret, I hope you choose someone who is not only trusted but on the other hand they can also at least consider giving the right advice on what you should do, because it's useless if you just tell him and tell him to keep it a secret if on the other hand you don't find a way out.

Yes it's true, it is difficult to get out of this gambling activity, especially if you are already quite addicted, but I think it's not impossible, I'm sure everyone can stop or just reduce it as long as there is a strong will and intention, but even so you will still need a long time to be able to stop completely because obviously this is about changing your habits and mindset, and believe me the process will not betray the results.
2445  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can somebody make a successful career in gambling on: November 15, 2023, 09:51:37 AM
Yes I also do not understand why they can have such assumptions and mindsets, it is clear and I have said before that gambling activities especially for the final result always depends on your luck, and if you are unlucky then you will lose, that's clear. Yes, I understand that there is a chance for anyone to win there but on the other hand there is absolutely no guarantee or certainty for the results according to what you want. Therefore we must be able to consider and think rationally in seeing this gambling, and if they absolutely do not want to consider the advice of others and continue to gamble with their own beliefs then it is clear as you say that it is the same as they kill themselves, plus on the other hand there is a family that they have to provide for, so gambling is really not recommended for anyone to make a living.

Yes, that's clear friends, basically gambling is created just for fun and a little try your luck and if you are lucky then you will get a prize from the casino, don't consider it a victory but just consider it a gift from your experiment, because if you consider it a victory then surely you will continue to be tempted to be able to get it again, but if you only consider it a gift then I think you will not be excessive, because usually we will get a prize when we are lucky.
It is that we as players must always know that when in a casino, the casino's main function is just to make people have fun, nothing more, everything changes when you see the casino as a way to play to make money, or to make money, because many people say that the casino is about making money, but what they don't know is that the purpose of the casino is so that Adults can have fun with the exception that if they have the money they can make money , then the You can't see how that is and yes, on some occasions we should focus so that we don't have to do extra work and to be able to have the option of luck, on whether a casino is based on luck in what can be done during a period corresponding game, and that has to do with the clarity that every player must understand that chance and a casino + the humiliation of the house is the only thing that rules , there is no other way, it is the most peculiar way to do it and it is the most logical .

We as casino players, when it comes to any Game , but those that are like Roulette, slot machines , among others, are always good so that they can establish the best option to win, something different, that's why when we think about winning in In these games we must know that to seek profits we must have a lot of money willing to risk and lose , Because otherwise things can go wrong if we do not have so much money willing to lose, that is the delicate thing.

So that's initial information that all gamblers should know, don't blame other people or even the casino if the final result is a loss, to be honest, many people will probably laugh at you. If you blame other people for conditions like that, you will be seen as It's a coward if you can't accept the final result which always happens randomly. That's right, basically gambling is nothing more than just a fun activity, therefore I hope everyone understands this, especially the risk of loss which is very likely to happen to you, don't let yourself come with the wrong mindset, for example looking for winnings or results, clearly outside of what the casino will provide, are unreasonable and somewhat off the mark.

Some of the games that they may think are good and seem to have tantalizing odds are in fact nothing more than odds, all games have odds and that means all games have no certainty except when you are lucky. Quite reasonable, I agree that if you want to win then you must be prepared to sacrifice your money in a few or dozens of attempts, so that means if you want it means you must also be prepared to lose, don't be egoistic because this is a game about luck that never escapes defeat, so you must first understand the real concept.

Monaco's next game will be against PSG, it will be a game in which PSG if they win they can start to distance themselves from the other teams, I'm talking about Nice in particular if Nice loses. This would already give PSG an advantage of 6 points and would open up space for a greater points advantage and consequently a greater guarantee of winning the league1, looking at Monaco I see PSG managing to come out of this game with victory
Monaco vs PSG will more or less be a game where the fans will expect what the league will look like. PSG are on fire with having winning streak in the last 5 games. it seems that their compactness as a team is back as it should be. Luis Enrique has been showing his capability as manager by working so well on something they should improve. Monaco are having inconsistency so far. after having a good start of the season by being at the top of the table, They dropped so many points from last few games that they were expected to win. Luka Elsner need find solution for their inconsistency, Their midfield is not working very well when they have situation to defend which leads their defense looks vulnerable.
They may be on the decline, but I don't think it's right to say they're in a state of inconsistency.
The meeting of these two clubs will be very interesting, and to be honest I want to see Monaco get a point, at least 1 point is a good result for them, yes although further I hope they will win. Not without reason, I want to see that because I want to see the competition get more competitive.
Although I also realize that to get just 1 point will be very difficult for Monaco, but it is not an impossible thing that they will get.

The truth is that when Cristiano Ronaldo came here he didn't do well either or in other words he didn't do well straight away, in some games he even struggled, but that's the process of adaptation. What is his strength is that he can quickly adjust at Al Nassr so that in a short time he can play well. I think one of the things that helped him in the adaptation process was his teammates who warmly welcomed his arrival. Although there were rumors about disharmony in some players, but it was just a rumor and now he can show his quality.
In his first season Ronaldo of course needed a process in adapting to his new team and this season Ronaldo is so integrated with his team's playing conditions and he has found the best form to score lots of goals. For Benzema, maybe he needs time to adapt because previously he played in the European League and this season is playing in the Asian league. But that's not one of the things that might take time for Benzema to perform better by scoring lots of goals because a quality player like him will easily adapt quickly to the conditions of the field and also his teammates.

Apart from that, this season there are many famous football stars who have not shown their best qualities, such as Firmino and Mahrez. That normal because sometimes they need time to do that and we're just waiting for more interesting competition when teams full of European players face each other this season.
Some take time, some fail completely, which is very possible. I'm not referring to any of the players you mentioned, I'm referring to any player who joins a new club.
Adaptation is a process that will definitely be experienced by a player, the difference is that some are fast in the process, some are slow, or even worse, fail.
Most of the players who eventually decide to join SPL clubs are no longer young. Supposedly with the experience they have, they will have no trouble adapting, but that's if we compare with their experience. But it certainly can't go on like that.
2448  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: November 14, 2023, 04:21:49 PM
Juventus are on fire right now. They are on winning streak that shows their quality as a team has improved a lot. Massimiliano Allegri has taken control back on his squad bad seasons he had before. They are now back to be favorite team to win the league with the balance squad they have and can focus on the league.

Inter Milan are also on very good form. they won games in Serie A and Champions League comfortably. They maintain their confidence as Champions League Finalist very well. Simone Inzaghi is very well-aware that the competition is still a long way to go with many other teams have improved a lot while they have lost few good players and signed some new players.

I think the Game Jeventus vs Inter Milan will be so intense. whoever perform with better defense have more chance to win because this game will be so tactical.
Inter Milan vs Juventus would be one of the big game to watch in the Seria A this season, both team have excellent feature and quality players. Watching Inter Milan and Juventus compete for the very best performance this season, a whole tough fight to experience because I'm certainly that both managers won't hesitate to give up, probably not when they're this close of winning the scudetto. For the Old Lady, they need consistency in performance for the purpose to match levels with the Nerazzurri who's topping the table and they don't look like team that would give up so soon.
Week 13 will see the two clubs in excellent form meet. It is quite difficult when having to predict a big match like this, especially since both clubs are in a ready condition, not only that the results of this match will determine their position. If Juventus win, then they will be able to shift Inter Milan from the top of the standings, and vice versa if Inter Milan win, they will widen the difference in points which is now only 2 points away.
I'm sure both clubs will be with the same target, which is victory. And to be honest when a meeting between two clubs like this takes place, I would prefer to see them draw.
2449  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: November 14, 2023, 04:06:40 PM
Xavi is far better injured players need to be back and the club will be in the right movement and direction. Xavi Hernandez and his players are choosing direction over speed the season is long they will catch up.
I agree it's very true this may be his strategy to get some more time and probably end up with the league title by the end of the season, regardless of how inconsistent his performance with his team is currently, xavi has tried to make sure he maintains a certain range of position such that he doesn't go below the top six so when his injured players are back it becomes even easier to climb up the table and possibly secure the title by the end of the season.

The biggest rival xavi may be having in the la Liga this season are currently adding to their points already and further piling up some more points ahead on the league table so by the time xavi's injured players may be back on the pitch, it may be that they are some good points behind their biggest rival and they will have tohet several series of wins to be able to meet up and this is the only pitfall I find with this strategy except he will be getting occasionally wins along side to continually keep his points growing just before then.
But more than that, they must anticipate similar things that might happen again in the future. I mean the return of some of their players from injury should be maximized well, and they should make sure that when bad things happen again they are ready.
The depth of the squad that they have at the moment is not entirely ready and strong, so when they lose some of their main players, they struggle because in reality the players who are their cover have not been able to replace their positions very well. Things like this must be anticipated because it really affects them.
2450  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: November 14, 2023, 11:19:45 AM

I don't know, I don't think it matters if it's a big club or something like Brentford... It could just be that the coach has found the right key to Chelsea's game... Remember how awful they played at the beginning of the season and how well they are playing now... I think it will become clear in the next games... If Chelsea continue to play well, then there is a good change in the team...
Their performance was a great one even the Manchester City were all also surprised, I really like their mentality when playing and Pochettino is very observant, they don't deal any chance the get they act on it face, with their recent matches I beginning to feel that Pochettino is now gradually fixing Chelsea to their normal football, am also seeing brightness ahead in their remaining games. Their next game against Newcastle united which am not expecting anything rather than win because because most of their key players are injured and their absent reflect on their previous games which they lost the two games, this is showing their capacity as a player that the teams really need, Chelsea should work so hard to win the match which I trust them.

Of course the final result of the match between these two clubs is indeed very surprising, how can Chelsea achieve results like this even though it only shares points with Manchester City but that's very good for a club that is in a slump zone, oh yes maybe initially Manchester City thought that this was one of the easy matches for them but the facts that happened were completely unexpected, Chelsea could really balance their game in that match, and I say that this is not purely from luck, but what is more certain is that maybe Pochettino has managed to make changes to his team starting in their last few matches.

Yes that's right, next Chelsea will play Newcastle, honestly in that match there must now be a lot of expectations especially from their fans, basically Newcastle are below Manchester City and with that then we can conclude that the possibility of Chelsea will have a pretty big chance in that match. Maybe this could be a good opportunity for Chelsea to get back to satisfying results, we'll see.

There should always be that kind of limitation on which it would really be just that normal that we would really be that having those kind of privacy specially on things that arent meant to be shared.
We do know that there are things life which needs to be private on which even our loved ones wont really be that anytime to know on what we are dealing with.
Family is always family and there is no two ways about it when it comes to things of this nature. One can be able to hide things from their friends but not from family as it would definitely not be easy to do if one try it. Actually, with respect to keeping things private to ones self, it is true that one can do that but at some point, one can no longer keep that particular thing a secret to oneself because at some point it would be obvious that you yourself knows it is time you say something about it to a trusted confidant for instance your spouse or son or your brother but let it be a trusted one that you can trust information to and he or she keeps it a secret no matter what happens down the lane.

Yes that's right, and also no matter how or in whatever way they worship their gambling to their family, I still think it can't be completely successful, because of course over time like a carcass that over time will definitely be smelled by both parents or other family members. One indication that can be found out is from your financial factors which are gradually getting weaker due to gambling, and with that, your closest people will suspect about why you are very wasteful lately but there is no reason they can believe in the reasons you say regarding where the money has disappeared, and also with that means that gradually your gambling activities will definitely be found out.

On the other hand yes maybe you can tell about your gambling activities to one of your closest people who of course like you said on condition that they must be trusted in order to keep this secret, but on the other hand in my opinion you should not only tell it but also find the best solution to overcome your problems such as trying some actions to reduce or even stop, because after all the best thing is when you can get out of this activity so as not to cause any problems later.
2452  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can somebody make a successful career in gambling on: November 14, 2023, 10:26:48 AM

Most people see gambling as a hope for luck and we all can't know when we will get that luck and if we do, it's best not to continue gambling. And if we stay there, we will experience losses because we have lost a lot of money and it will become a burden of problems in our life.
What I've experienced with gambling is that it's indeed a game of luck but it would be a misconception to say that gambling relies on luck alone. Gamblers must be knowledgeable and tactical as well and find a way to engage in gambling in the best way that would not make them deliberately fail. I know some people who are gambling and are winning consistently, but because of greed, they would eventually lose all or some that they've lost due to over-gambling. In this case, your advice is very valid, and it's part of the tactical response I pointed to because if you are tactical, you will not only be engaging but also managerial, which demands to manage yourself and your money to know when to continue playing and stop, and not let emotion comes in.

It is true that indeed in gambling as in general that everything is very dependent on luck, you cannot behave selfishly by always expecting victory at the end of the session, because obviously all possibilities can occur there, not only victory but more often than not, defeat by a certain amount. Honestly for me personally I really agree if you say that gambling purely relies on luck alone, and also yes I would ask you what makes you say that gambling does not rely on luck, what does it mean that gamblers must have extensive knowledge as you mean? Is there learning related to how they have to play to be able to win? gambling is not a subject like in school that we can study to find the final answer, because obviously earlier you also said that you agree that gambling is a game about luck. That is a strong reason why many people, especially those who are addicted to losing a lot.

If there are people who can get consistent wins from gambling then it seems like you have to tell me what methods they use, the fact is that whether you are greedy or not, if at that time you lose, you will lose and if you are lucky, you will win. The last thing you said I agree that we should not overdo it.
2453  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Most you have ever lost in one session? on: November 14, 2023, 10:00:34 AM

Many gamblers are not ready to manage the algorithm to make the big win form the gambling site.The gambler thought the luck itself gave the good profit from the betting without have try of any effort in the game.The losses also possible in the gambling site,once the gambler not match the algorithm of the gambling site.The gambler was not ready to build their strategy based on the algorithm of the gambling sites.The time need to be spend on the gambling site more then the normal gambler,when the effort made by the gambler in the gambling site.The gambling site will allow to make the big win in the gambling and can win big money.
I think the chances of winning big in gambling are very low if the algorithm is not managed properly. It is very difficult to give accurate information about winning here so many gamblers are afraid to spend more money those who become greedy are at greater risk of harm. By playing it safe and building your winnings patiently you will be able to maintain control over the game. A session will only last until you either reach your win target or lose your maximum bet remember that the longer you play the more likely you are to lose.

Of course that's true guys because basically the casino makes a system that the percentage of wins is much lower than losses, I don't know about what percentage of people who gamble know this, but the point is that I hope those including those who are addicted and especially those who have just come to know the real fact that the percentage of losses is much greater than wins, and that is why many of them suffer defeat until now, especially for those who are addicted.

In the event that you've got a lot of money to spend, you'll be able to't afford to spend a lot more than you need to. There are some of them who are afraid to spend more money after knowing this fact and there are also those who are getting crazy because they cannot accept defeat and are also driven by their very high level of curiosity, and also that is the reason why usually the greedy ones experience a greater number of defeats. Yes, that's exactly right, it's better to play it safe by putting a small amount and also be patient, with that then you will be able to become a responsible gambler and also be able to apply control.
2454  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are some things you should always avoid while gambling ? on: November 14, 2023, 09:32:43 AM

Yes and that's what is unfortunate, not all gamblers can control themselves when gambling, so many gamblers do not realize that they have lost a lot of money just to fulfill their desires with the aim of getting a big win that is difficult or even impossible to get. Because there are already bookmakers who arrange it, if they get a big win, they are just lucky.

And that has become a common thing for addicts, with a sense of dissatisfaction so they continue to play until they get a big win even though they only lose.

It’s true,the gambler can’t satisfy with the profit made by them on the specific time.The gambler will target the next money after the first target was satisfied in the betting.Until the gambler learn the way of satisfy with the minimum profit,he never learn to survive in the gambling for the longer period of time.The game like the dice will make your wallet increase and decrease based on the continuous betting,untill you get satisfy with the certain amount of the profit.The gambler will force to loss the entire money to the gambling sites.Then balancing the gambling sites for the complete loss of dollars deposited on the gambling sites is no use.

And that will usually be the beginning of someone to apply greed, anyone who can never get enough of the victory they managed to get then I say that it is not a real victory or the final victory, because of course after they apply greed at that time then obviously the final result will again run randomly and it is very possible that where initially they have won but because they apply greed then in the end usually all the money they have earned will disappear again with defeat.

Indirectly in my opinion this is very related to whether they are responsible gamblers or not, because of course usually someone who is responsible will accept whatever the final result is, and that means whatever the amount of victory is very possible for them to stop and enjoy the results of their winnings and forget about their greed. Basically, in my opinion, whatever game you play or even want to be in the type of skill-based gambling, some precautions must still be applied because only that can help you minimize things that are not wanted.
2455  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A gambler's family action. on: November 13, 2023, 01:54:47 PM
During the weekend I was listening to an evening programme from one our the local radio stations they were discussing about gambling, the effects and how to manage it if you might be struggling with  addiction. And they had listeners calling in to share personal experiences or of a loved one that gambles and amidst many callers there was this very caller story that caught my interest and curiosity.

She told about how the family members of a particular young man that is like a plunger when it comes to gambling, his compulsive gambling is to the length of him selling his personal properties and gadgets to make sure he gambles. So what he family did was to print a photograph of him and giving it to all the gambling shops within their neighborhood and around the locality, threatening that any of the gambling shops they have pasted the photo of their brother should they find their brother allowed to gamble in the shops they will sue the gamble shop owner to court as one that is abetting their brother's compulsive gambling lifestyle.

Now, while I was quietly listening to the story in my head I began to ask myself several possible  questions and one of such questions was; is it not possible that this young man can take a cab away from their location and move to a far area to carry out his gambling since his a compulsive gambler.

Just two questions here:
1. Dis the family of this young man went too extreme in trying to help stop their brother from gambling addiction or not?

2. Assuming you are this young man and you had to run to a distant location to carry out your gambling as you are allowed to gambling within your neighborhood and luckily you won huge sum of million dollars. Would you share that money with your loved ones who were barring you from gambling or you will just stay off from them and live new found wealthy live alone?

Share your thoughts!

I must say this guy is not the smartest of them,selling his wealth to gamble is plain stupid from a logical perspective.It is much better to rent those properties if he cannot manage them or sell them in order to build something new,some new business out of those money.

The point of view or logical thinking must always be done in any case, especially when we are solving a problem, none other than because it is with a healthy and logical mindset that we will be able to find the right solution to overcome everything. With this then I can already conclude that those who are willing to sell their wealth just to gamble then they are one of the people whose brains and minds are abnormal and disturbed. That's a very appropriate statement for stupid people who are willing to spend everything they have on a place that only relies on luck and there is no guarantee for them to recover or return or even get a bigger amount for the large capital they are willing to spend. Yes that's right, in this case I do see that the middle way that should be done if they are no longer able to manage their property assets then it is better to rent it out or sell it to someone else, that way you will get money for sure every month or year when a tenant pays rent for the property you have, it's better and more reasonable.

Bayern Leverkusen just as expected got three points after a flawless victory against union Berlin in yesterday's match, Bayern Leverkusen were at home which was even further advantage for them as they have been good at home this season more than playing away.

Union Berlin has had the worse form this season and their performance aswell has been the worse they have recorded in a very long time.rhey literally loose to almost every team they meet this season, they have to struggle with relegation, they should also focus more on not been relegated so by next season they can further improve playing in the main bundesliga and not the second league.
An easy victory was achieved by Leverkusen when they hosted Union Berlin, yes they could convincingly bulldoze their guests with a landslide score. Seeing the course of the match, there was nothing to expect from Union Berlin's game, they were very sad. I don't know what happened to Union Berlin so they could be as bad as now, last season they played well and even competed at the top of the standings. If they continue like this, then it is not impossible that they will be relegated this season. Now they still have time to improve, I hope they can make good use of it.
Bayer Leverkusen's comfortable win against Union Berlin during the weekend further tells that the the league leaders are seriously in contention to win the German Bundesliga title this season.
Xabi Alonso have been absolutely incredible with his tactical approach and discipline in the Bayer Leverkusen team and that's why I think they're strong opponents to end Bayern Munich's dominance in the league if only they can continue with their current performance

Although I think this is not a difficult match for Leverkusen against Union Berlin as I said before, but yes with some success and their seriousness in every match they have passed then yes it is enough to conclude that this season Leverkusen is very different compared to last season, we can see last season they looked ordinary and there was no indication that showed that this season they would be so extraordinary in the competition and also if we look at the statistics last season their number of wins was almost equal to the number of defeats, there was no advantage that looked impressive.

Yes, their success this season is due to the contribution of a coach who has been outstanding in tactically turning his team's performance into extraordinary and all of that is unexpected. And yes, from several teams that are competing fiercely in the top five standings, in my opinion, it is more likely to be able to break the dominance of Bayern Munich as the defending champion title, Leverkusen, because only they are more promising.

Your main priority is to keep your economic life in order, and do not let you desperately put money for other needs on gambling in the hope of winning, we must first understand that there is absolutely no guarantee that you can win there, even usually the opposite, defeat is more common.
It is important to control our finances so that they don't disrupt our economic life, because if we don't control it, it will definitely be difficult to stop it, let alone become addicted to gambling just because we are obsessed with wanting to get big wins from gambling, which is actually not easy to get. I know that everyone has different ways of controlling it. yourself in gambling which is why it is important to be able to limit each budget correctly.

If the gambling budget is used as an alarm, it is even better so that we can play responsibly and wisely in following the flow of the game in gambling. Sometimes emotions are often uncontrolled when the desire to win big is at its peak. The point is, don't ever dream of beating the dealer and hope. earn big money from gambling.

True, to be honest there is absolutely no prohibition for anyone to gamble as long as on condition that their gambling activities do not interfere with other things in their lives, such as for example their finances are destroyed because they cannot manage or cannot be firm by determining which money is for gambling and which money is for their needs, therefore we must really be able to put limits when gambling, because clearly if you are already addicted then I think it will be easy for you to put money that was originally for your needs but you put it on gambling with a very high level of expectation.

The question is whether or not they can do it or apply full firmness to their gambling budget which indirectly puts an alarm when the budget for gambling has run out. In my opinion, one of the things that must be addressed is their mindset in looking at gambling, don't let you think that this is an activity to earn because of course it will be very dangerous for your mentality and finances, by understanding all the concepts that exist in gambling then I think it will not be difficult for you to apply full responsibility for each of your gambling sessions, and also yes maybe in terms of emotions can also be minimized a little. In fact if you really want to get a real win then in my opinion there is no other way unless you create your own casino.

Yes, it should be like that, meaning that they should be able to realize about their mistakes and make it a valuable lesson so that they don't fall into the same hole. And in my opinion it seems that if someone has experienced something like that in their gambling I think they have a great chance of being  able to reach awareness, because obviously to reach awareness of mistakes in gambling it must come out of themselves, and indirectly that is why it is very difficult for us to give advice to gambling addicts when they still have not experienced the worst thing in their gambling involvement.

The point is that if they can reach their consciousness then other preventive things I am sure they can do as a prevention, as I said above that indeed if the person is aware then yes some things that were previously difficult for them to do will be able to be applied to / as a way of prevention. Building  a career in gambling is not difficult but impossible and improbable, because clearly this is not a place to achieve success because from the concept of gambling alone there is nothing that provides any certainty for the end result, in fact it usually loses, right? honestly  in my opinion it's a silly mindset, and if there are people who are hard to keep doing it then go ahead, don't be surprised if something surprising happens to you.
They should be more aware so they don't repeat the same mistakes, especially as previous experience will make them more careful in gambling. But if he can't learn a lesson from what happened to him, maybe he won't realize it until they actually have something worse than before. But before they experience a more serious incident, we can still accompany them. If at any time they almost experience a more serious incident, we can immediately help them so that they don't experience a more serious incident.

This means that it depends on the person because a person's awareness will of course, be different, so if other people want to advise them, they will use different approaches to suit their situation and conditions. So instead of sticking with their plan to achieve success from gambling, they should divert their energy and thoughts to work that can clearly provide them with a steady income. They just need to do their job well and don't need to do things that could violate office regulations. That's all that is needed and if they still want to gamble, they can gamble after they get home from their office.

For the problem of whether the incident was very bad and meaningful for them, I honestly don't know because only they themselves can judge it, and also of course as I said if it was very painful according to them, then I can conclude that it seems like they will have a chance to achieve awareness to be better in the future. Yes and if even though they have experienced something painful but still can't come to their senses then I think it can't be said to be too painful, because clearly whoever they are and no matter how bad they are if they have experienced something that is really serious and has a very bad impact on their lives such as their family being destroyed as a result of the economic decline due to gambling then I think they will have enough reasons to come to their senses.

Yes that's true, no matter how bad it is but sometimes it still depends on themselves because like you said that everyone's awareness has a different level. And sometimes that makes it difficult for us to provide assistance, unless we really know about their true character and provide assistance according to what should be given. Right friend, it's better that way, instead of them being busy taking care of gambling it's better to find another job that is more certain and promising.

Well yes, that's right, it seems like that, most of them already know about the risks that can occur, but the problem is that they don't want to lose and are selfish to win, and also on the other hand they are too serious in seeing the opportunity, so with that it is very possible for them to act carelessly and out of their control. Basically, it is very difficult to achieve awareness if they are already very tempted by the odds of gambling.
I have previously said that things can change when someone gets into gambling, something good can become worse, as you said, a gambler will lose control when tempted by any opportunity, just like being tempted to do things that go beyond the limits of ability and this situation is very It often happens or worse when gamblers have planned everything to avoid any risks that occur in gambling but all of this is ignored when they experience consecutive losses and become emotional and continue betting with the desire to recover losses.
so for me, something that is very important to avoid in gambling is simply not to give in to any emotional situation or desire that could pose a risk of too big a loss.

Yes that's true, and in my opinion it can all happen depending on everyone's personality and their goals in gambling, but yes I also wouldn't say that all of that is true, because like most cases that have recently often happened that even though you come with the intention of just entertainment along with having prepared all the restrictions for prevention material but I say all of that can't always rule out the possibility that in the end you will forget everything and continue to play even though the final result is still losing, It's not other than all that you do because your mindset has been disturbed or instigated by what is meant by opportunities that are driven by temptation that makes your mindset finally change drastically without you realizing it.

This is where the importance of being a responsible gambler, because in my opinion if you have full responsibility and are not too serious in terms of expectations then I think all of the above can be minimized a little, and also yes as I said above that this also depends on a person's character, because if they have a character that is easily provoked or emotional then I am sure you will easily do things out of control when the final result is not to your liking. Understanding what gambling is also needed, it will be a reason for you not to chase defeat there because there is no guarantee.
2460  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🚀-Sportsbet.io-🚀 Official Partner of Newcastle United Football Club on: November 13, 2023, 11:31:58 AM
I said Newcastle's play in this match did not show what they usually do. Yes there is confusion that I see so that their game does not find a good rhythm of play. On the other hand Bournemouth, their game is promising and better than Newcastle. I was honestly surprised when I saw their game like that, because usually their game is mediocre, and even tends to be bad.
Bournemouth successfully muffled Newcastle and the results were very satisfying, 3 points they could achieve. They are very motivated and I think they are very successful in this 12th week.

Football is a game that prioritizes teamwork for 90 minutes. Agreed?
Apart from the goalkeeper, every other player in the starting XI has their own teammates to play with because of their mutual understanding of how to play. Agreed?

Newcastle's game when they suffered a 2-0 defeat which you said was not normal because a number of main players such as Guimaraes were absent. In your opinion, the absence of Guimaraes in Newcastle United's midfield is the reason Newcastle's game is not as usual?
I think yes. Lewis Miley, who filled Newcastle's midfield in that match, was not quite ready. It was proven that the rating of Longstaff, who was Guimaraes' playing partner, was very low in this match.
Of course I agree with the 2 points you questioned, it's something that every club should have.
Regarding the absence of one of Newcastle's main players, they should have prepared for that. I mean before it happened they should have realized that things like this will always happen in football, therefore they must have an evenly distributed squad of both first and second-tier players.
Things like this give the impression that the squad they have is not completely evenly distributed and that could be their weakness when their mainstay players cannot be played.
