Guardiola gave a statement yesterday saying that City medical service is to thank for Haaland being able to play every match. Then he added that he will be rotated for sure at some games. On the other hand I am sure he is chasing many records and wants to continue.

Will be making my picks later today, club football gives us so much more than national games. Really spoiled for choices.

It is good when we are participating in different pools,this way we are never bored during the weekend and also midweek days when usually the Champions League is.I think it is to early to put the predictions,I will do so tomorrow near the start of the games as I need to know a lot more information regarding each team,players,injuries and alike before making my picks.Not that by doing so gives me an advantage because I am doing poorly so far in the pool but at a psychological level it sure helps me a lot in instilling self confidence to do better in the pool.

On inplay, the only option I consider is HT under 1.2 or 2.5.
@10 and most of the time @1.15 odds for English Premier League games, then HT 0.5 for Championship games, but it's a waste of time; the best thing to do now is ignore Liverpool.

HBP; High blood pressure.   

It may seem as if there is irony, hypocrisy and various internal contradictions with other members that appears to be gambling rather than investing and telling others to do something different from what they are doing, yet the situation of people are different.

Each of us should be attempting to tailor our bitcoin investment approach to our own circumstances, and actual view of bitcoin's anticipated price performance as compared to where it is at is ONLY one of the factors, and may well not be a big factor in terms of inabilities to really assess it in the short-term anyhow, so in that regard, the other factors become much more important.. and maybe I should just list them out in order to be more specific to my references. 

Individual considerations include but are not limited to cashflow, other investments, view of bitcoin as compared with other investments, timeline, risk tolerance, and time, skills, goals (investment/lifestyle targets) and abilities to strategize, plan, research and learn along the way including tweaking strategies from time to time to consider trading, reallocating, use of leverage and/or financial instruments.

Accordingly, if I have been into bitcoin for nearly 9 years, and I spent my first 1-3 years building my bitcoin position, then I have way more flexibility than a newbie because my average cost per BTC may well be below $1k, so even if the BTC price drops from $69k to $19.5k, I could be telling the newbie to be buying the whole time, even though I might be buying and selling.. depending on other considerations that i have.  I am not dumping on them merely because I might be selling when I am telling them to buy.  If the newbie has no bitcoin or very little bitcoin, but s/he has a lot of value (an investment portfolio) in other assets, then it is quite likely the best thing for them to "need" to get into bitcoin, when I am either flexible or even considering that it is o.k. for me to reallocate which might even mean that I am selling at times that would be great investment prices for anyone who is either a no coiner or a low coiner.

I think that part of the reason that in the real world, I am almost always giving similar advice (to the extent that I would concede it to be advice) to no coiners/low coiners no matter the BTC price is because I am frequently talking to no coiners/low coiners, and the advice is to get started and figure out how to get some kind of a BTC allocation, and then once they spend years establishing their BTC accumulation levels, then it may well (or at least should) become more clear how to manage that allocation and figure out if more allocation is needed, are they in a maintenance stage or have they moved into a liquidation stage... and we may see ourselves moving back and forth between these kinds of stages depending on our circumstances an maybe depending on how solidly we are able to build our BTC holdings in order to feel that we have flexibility in regards to what to do.. even though right now, it does not seem like a great time to be selling bitcoin, even if any of us might be in 20x to 100x profits, but we would still have more flexibility to decide whether or not to sell any at these prices if we have been in for a while and we have built our bitcoin stash in order to help to bolster our flexibilities in terms of potentially having a variety of options in terms of choosing which assets to spend from to cover our monthly expenses - whether they are discretionary expenses or not.

Not just lost points in ordinary way, Real had a late penalty and Benzema managed to miss it. Too make things even worse they had numbers advantage that last 15 minutes as well.

Sociedad was the match of the day in Spain for sure, never would have thought there is any chance for more then 2 goals on that game. If we take into account all the leagues, Manchester derby was a bit better, higher profile of clubs made it my to go match and it didn't disappoint.

I am quite sure I am missing info for 2018 or somewhere around that for one more extension. Did not have the will to spend more then 2 minutes searching Pattern is clear, he gets new contract every time he gets in the last year of previous one, as it should be.

Liverpool didn't and that is enough to destroy a lot of points.I think Arsenal ended like predicted and I got a close result there together with West Ham which also got as expected,then in the end I got Chelsea correct score.I was expecting a Brentford win which it didn't come and also a draw in the Southampton game.So yes most likely half of the games ended like expected from the strong ones well except Liverpool which besides losing points to many in the pool I am sure has also ruined many bets that people had made on them.

I'm not even close. being content, man! I lost $50 because of that game, I added Loserpool to my acca to increase the odds of my perfect four fold of Arsenal, Chelsea, AC Milan, and Loserpool for the weekend, I had to endure the agony of both Loserpool and Chelsea losing at the same time, equalized at the same time, Loserpool went ahead with 3-2, then I had my mindset on Chelsea to get the winner and then boom! Loserpool conceded again immediately after Chelsea scored the winner. Loserpool are so bad, Loserpool fans must be going through hell, I had HBP cheering for them for 90 minutes.

I don't think Barca will have an easy game tonight. They have lot of injuries: Depay, De Jon, Kounde, Araujo, Bellerin..... and most of their players were away for national duty. On the other hand, we have Mallorca that has been in training these whole 15 days preparing just for this match.

My assumption was right. Lol, I will do the same as yours if that is really the case. It's normal that it will receive comment because we are assuming only your real situation to apply the Blackjack standard hand table. It will surely create an argument if someone assume the other way around like what you see on the previous comment.

I just finish yesterday securing my loyalty level. I was planning to do the wager with the weekly promo but it seems that @Joel is still not finish the transitioning of work.

That's just one part of the equation, you let your self disappointed in this market, and if so, what will be your plan B? for sure there's none for them. They are going to be disappointed though, as the market is going to fall because of the world recession, not just us, but other markets like stocks, which shows that we are interconnected after all. So once those investors got disappointed, they can't just say that they will shift to others because everything is going down.

Exactly. There are websites for those kind of games.

"Damn, I just lost $1,000. Perhaps I should play Chicken Invaders to feel better."

It depends on the faced up card of the dealer if you will double down on soft 17 or not. Remember that Slaman didn't mention the faced up card of the dealer and you just assumed it was small. I'm assuming that dealer faced up card was 7 to 9 when I made the comment above since Slaman still hit at soft 17. Slaman provides only the data that the dealer total card was 11 and when the dealer hits 6 to make 17 which means there's a chance that dealer faced up card is around 7,8,9 too and not only 6 below that's why I'm checking this info to him on my above post.

Lol, are you sure of what you just said, there's no way El Salvador would adopt bitcoin if there wasn't a growth in value. Now let's look at the price of bitcoin when it was introduced and compare it to the price of 2022, don't you think that's an increase.

2017, 2018, 2019 Bitcoin experienced a very sad period, after what happened, Bitcoin was able to break through a new ATH. I think you need to re-examine the flow of bitcoin journey from its first introduction until 2022. Only then will you draw conclusions on my post, is it nonsense or not.

Yeah, the technology is far more important than the price itself but unfortunately, most people think bitcoin in terms of price and how they can make money out it.
No one really cares about the blockchain technology behind the crypto and all this stuff. People are more interested to know which year would be the possible next bull run 

And there is no good news for Barcelona. During this break Araujo, Depay, De Jong and Kounde got injured. This is why I don't like international breaks. Getting injuries in meaningless friendly game.. And when we have such intensive October, worst timing.
