2681  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Socialtournaments-A way to stop gambling addiction on: September 02, 2023, 04:53:42 AM
I have a slightly different thought between breaking gambling addiction and this tournament. what I know about gambling addiction is someone who wants to continue to satisfy their addiction by gambling at any time whenever they want and even though this tournament is held for free it only takes time to participate in this tournament but this is not an effective way to help quit addictive activity but its just the same because even though its free its still about gambling and gambling addicts what they need to quit their addiction is another activity that is far from gambling or any activity related to gambling.
as did some people out there who have a family addicted to gambling they help stop their activities by way of rehabilitation in a place far from gambling so that their minds will get used to without gambling activity in any form. so I slightly disagree with the tournament to stop addiction.

Some teams are still playing unbeaten at the moment and this week is a week I feel the upset to happen and teams we expect to win are going to do something different.
Luton almost got a draw to get hold of their first point since they were promoted, wished they had gotten a goal before West Ham got their 2nd for the night. Well tomorrow I'm still expecting something shocking before the players all go and represent their countries.
Arsenal vs Manchester is just going to be fun and they might end up playing a draw, but the most interesting game is the game between City vs Fulham, I think City will be the shocker of this week. City might end up losing this game or even end up in a draw and also Liverpool might lose their game too, lets expect many more drama to come to end GW4.
related to West Ham win against Luton as I said before here that guaranteed win for West Ham even though Luton is the host but in reality it is difficult for a team that has been promoted this season to have to play against a team that has been in this premier league for a long time and I think Luton is still it takes a lot of time to learn to understand the strategies of some of the top teams here.

It will indeed be a very interesting match to see the matches of top teams like Arsenal and Man United, but if you look at the performance of these two teams, there are a few bad things about Man United performance which is a little bad in some matches and is still inconsistent, even when playing against Spurs, MU could not win. the game and it looks like Arsenal chances of winning are bigger.

and for Man City vs Fulham there is no doubt that City will win this match very easily and Guardiola only provides a little strategy to score at least 2 scores after that makes a defensive formation that is strong enough to end the match with a win.

Another poor result from Dortmund. They were leading with 2 goals to 0 in the first 15 minutes of the game, but they failed to maintain this advantage and worse, they collapsed in the second half and received two. Such thing doesn't occur in top teams unless they are out of their best form.
I wonder know if the odds for the next match in Bundesliga between Dortmund and Freiburg will remain the same after such draw.

When the fans on the stands in Dortmund are booing their team, you know big problems are present.

They pull the same shit against weak teams just like last season. Against a team that was in the 2nd league last season you can't leave points after leading 2:0, AT HOME.
That's just embarrassing. The season seems over before it even began. Bayern will most likely win again and after only 3 game days you are down 5 points, congratulations.

This team has nothing at the moment, no offense, no defense, no fight, no self-confidence. How do you want to compete without these factors? Is it the coach, it it the players? 

Good night BVB, see you next season.
very far from our predictions when Dortmund played against a team that had just been promoted to Bundesliga 1 which looked weak and did not have a strong performance but Dortmund surprisingly conceded again in the second half and ended in a draw. Im sure not only the fans will be disappointed with this match but also big bettors will be very disappointed because as far as I remember the odds given by the bookmakers are quite small and many bet on Dortmund in large numbers but its very disappointing that this team has to repeat mistakes like the end of the season match in the season previously. carelessness occurred in the defense that gave Heidenheim the opportunity to take a penalty that ended in a draw. so Im really not sure if Dortmund can get through the UCL preliminary round with a performance like this. quit betting on Dortmund for me.

just guessing if you ask customer support about sportsbooks and they answer with this ignorance I think the casino is not yet established. I mean it seems like the casino you asked the question to is a new gambling site or a local site that does not have a reputation that is known to most gamblers so they hired someone to sit in the customer support chair to answer all customer questions but unfortunately the casino hired that person just to a small salary or hiring an ordinary person with no knowledge of gambling or gambling systems so that the casino does not lose too much by paying that person to answer every customer question. but there is also customer support, namely AI which automatically replies to what you ask and when you ask about something that AI does not know, AI will definitely not answer satisfactorily according to your wishes.

but if you understand what is being said, it looks like its open to AI customer support because if the support is indeed from AI, usually questions that are not in the AI data will usually be forwarded to the real human support team and the team will answer in detail what you ask. and if it is indeed from the support team and answers your question with dissatisfaction, you can send a report via email to the casino to provide criticism to the casino owner.

Its really bad to see that a casino has a customer support team that is unfriendly or has no knowledge of the business but nevertheless this is often the case in local casinos or newer casinos

That is the importance of having financial literacy, including for gamblers, because with this they can manage their finances well when betting or gambling, especially anticipating when they get an unexpected win.
And if someone wins a big win and doesn't have a good education, especially in the field of finance, then that victory will certainly cause the victory to become intangible and even quickly run out without a purpose.
In fact, this can still be overcome if the big winners are not greedy and careless by involving people they trust to manage it, such as financial service providers, wives if they already have one, or family members. And the aim is to help manage their finances well or provide advice provided they have expertise in business, investment or whatever so that the money can work.
greed will always nest in the human mind. I mean almost the majority of gamblers still have greedy thoughts and I guarantee that when someone who has intelligence in terms of managing their finances will be a little greedy when gambling to get a big win, lets say someone has a budget of $20 and when playing slots they are lucky to get $400, they definitely not stop immediately. betting session but he will continue his betting session to spend another at least $50 to try his luck again and that is what almost all gamblers do to this day.
and relatedly, when a gambler gets a big win but does not use the win for investment or other profitable things, it has become a habit of gamblers who have the mindset that they will definitely win again tomorrow so that the big win is used to buy something that is not useful or spend just to buy stuff that is not useful. conditions like this are also often carried out by most gamblers.

This won't work because once you get addicted, your families will question your stressful looks and where your money goes after you get them. Sometimes people who hide their gambling habits fall into debt because they don't want to ask for money from their parents siblings or friends and in the end, they will just know the truth because a person like this will lose every chance he has to hide it.
The conditions will be very different if we have become addicted gamblers. Because, this will indeed really affect our daily lives. And of course addicted gamblers will have a very clear change in attitude, related to their emotions which are usually more unstable and easily provoked by emotions. Not only that, addicted gamblers will usually tend to be rude and do anything to get money. This is where people usually know if they are gamblers.

but this condition will be different if you are not an addicted gambler, as long as they can keep a secret, maybe no one will know. It's only possible that other people will just be curious about what he's doing, especially if more and more money is being made  Grin Grin
if that happens to gambling addicts who are not too severe I think they can still hide their gambling activities but for gambling addicts who are already severe I am sure he will not be able to hide his gambling activities and can even be seen by other people when he tries to take money or steal other people things. he did all this because of a serious gambling addiction, they did not have normal thoughts or only thought about gambling without having any other thoughts.

and in the long run I think this kind of person will be worse off if it harms other people maybe he will be caught by the authorities to be taken to rehab.

However, I agree that Real Madrid bought very good players, in the first season Jude Bellingham immediately adapted well and made a contribution to his club.
well, even though Real Madrid have not been able to bring in a substitute for Benzema but the purchase of a player like Bellingham this season is a little better to improve Real Madrid strength after leaving Benzema for the saudi arabian team and we imagine just trying Mbappe can confirm he will sign a contract with Real Madrid this will be a surprise and good news for Madrid fans and officials because it is Mbappe arrival that can replace Benzema vacant place even though there is a slight difference in playing style between Benzema and Mbappe but at least Mbappe goal scoring talent is almost the same as Benzema and hope this season or next season Real Madrid can get Mbappe.

There would be no doubt luck is in side of Barcelona as they are having good favorable group which is giving them advantage for qualifying for the knockout stage and have no enough worries about anything with this all they can give their best for the La Liga which is more competitive for them in this season and their form and consistency both are not in their side in early matches but with this draw now they can do better things for the better results here and few experiments are also allowed which will help them for the improved strategy in coming weeks.

Just Porto is having some quality, but Barcelona can handle this with going into next round with topper of the group is surely amazing stuff and with this most chances they could be able to have spot into last eight as well.
indeed in this round Barcelona was very lucky in a situation where the performance was not so strong because it did not have reliable players and only got players for free but luck came when it came to being in a group with a team that was not too strong and also Barcelona had the opportunity to get rid of some of the existing teams in the H group. but Barcelona should not think that Porto is weak because even though it does not look too strong but if Barcelona players make a careless move Porto will take advantage of this opportunity because what I know is that the Porto team does not have great strength in terms of performance but in terms of stealing opportunities this team is very smart to stole the opportunity to score so that Barcelona must appear consistently in the preliminary round matches.

With five goals and two assists so far, Cristiano Ronaldo has been chosen as the best player in the Saudi league for August 2023 and we know that one of these GOATs will never run out of quality. Last week's last win was also an important point because Al-Nassr could climb to 6th place in the standings after previously being at the bottom of the standings.

Cristiano Ronaldo's role is becoming more important every week and if he is absent it will certainly be a loss for Al-Nassr. We also still often see him playing the full 90 minutes at the age of 38 and also often being the key to victory for the team. Once again, Cristiano Ronaldo is unstoppable and we are still waiting for his further achievements, especially being the top scorer of the saudi league for this season.
currently, Ronaldo is being proud of in saudi arabia or is being talked about after his success in always scoring in every match, but there is concern that his big ambition to become the top scorer in the SPL is that he is ignoring injuries. I mean usually a star football player is too focused on scoring as many goal as possible so sometimes there are injuries that they do not feel they should rest but he forces himself to compete but in the end he has to be seriously injured and this is what is worried about if it happens to Ronaldo because the injury will still be nightmare morning for all star player like Ronaldo. hopefully it not happen until Ronaldo retires on good terms without retiring on bad terms and I will be waiting for Ronaldo to score as many goals as possible to revive his career in the SPL before deciding to retire in future.

This is not a case of being addicted to gambling. There are people who are actually in control of their gambling habits or addiction. For instance, they do not gamble beyond their budget; they commit an hour or two to gambling per week or twice per week and strictly adhere to it, among all other things. We have heard and read stories here and out there about how gambling ruins lives, careers, relationships, throws people into debt and more. But my question is, could this be happening to everybody? Has your responsible gambling habit had any positive effects on your relationships with your spouse, kids, parents, and others? Has it improved your finances and helped you stay out of debt? Has it improved your mental health and well being in anyway? Has it been able to help you meet an urgent need? Let's discuss.
regarding the positive impact on the family, I think there is none, even though I am married, have a wife and children, but only my wife knows about my gambling activities and I hide the gambling that I always do once a week from my children because this will have a negative impact on the
my children mental health in the long term.

I only gamble once a week or twice a week and all the gambling I do has no thought of making a profit or getting money from gambling, but I do this gambling activity just to try my luck and also to entertain myself when I have free time when Im on holiday. from my job so there is no thought of getting money from here and also I only bet from the remaining money I have or from campaign results without having to loan money just to gamble.

as I said before, my gambling activities will have nothing to do with my real life and this is just for having fun while trying my luck. so it not interfere mentally or even have an impact on the well being of my life.

help with urgent needs? not at all. its just about gambling activities that should not be mixed with real life. this is just for fun only.

Frustration will always be part of the gambler's life who keeps seeking for continuous daily wins through fixed goals to achieve. It's just not feasible in a daily basis, doesn't matter the strategy being used, as losses will hit at some point and will become unrecoverable if the gambler insists in fighting against this harsh reality.

For such goals to be possible to complete, casinos would be facing deep losses, therefore nobody would like to run a casino business, consequently not existing any opened casinos where gamblers could execute their strategies of daily guaranteed income. So, even on the scenario where it would be possible to make 100$ daily, it wouldn't be possible, anyway.
this is simply the same as fighting fate. I mean when gambler who has a silly idea can make an income from gambling and ignores how gambling works that is stupid behavior that the gambler should avoid who can lead himself astray in misery. how is it possible that gambler will continue to gamble in hopes of earning $100 even worse making $1 would be very difficult or even give the casino $100 every day at our loss.

In this scenario, we take another example, not only with the martingale bet, which in the end will still lose, even if you have lot of money, you will definitely run out and lose, unless you have unlimited money. there is an arbitrage bet and this is very rarely done and it is very difficult to make bet like this which is well known. this strategy has certain results when betting on sports betting with certain income but it comes back to the gambling parties who do not want to go bankrupt and they always have tools system to detect arbitrage betting and ban it immediately and confiscate its entire budget.
2692  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slots with the purchase of bonus games - is it good or bad? on: September 01, 2023, 06:56:49 AM
from my experience it depends on the type of slot I want to play and usually I play more often from pragmatic providers or Play N Go and at pragmatic I also sometimes buy bonus spins more often when my feelings tell me that the day is mine so I keep buying bonuses spin after above 500 basic spins but when the situation feels bad I prefer to rarely buy bonus spins.

and to play on slots, the Play N Go provider very rarely provides a buy bonus spin feature, so I think this made me even more curious when I could not get the scatter symbol to be able to enter the bonus round and kept pressing the spin button until I got the scatter. but whether its just me or some people feel the same way when playing games from Play N Go providers which do not provide a buy spin feature when you get a scatter and entering the bonus round usually gets satisfactory results. but Im sure some people have different opinions.

If he can perform well, while he is in Dortmund, I think he will still be able to increase his market value. If he can play really devastating football for even one season, I think Dortmund will actually sell him for a good price. Generally, any club does not sell players right after one season. But we know how Dortmund is. They will sell players whenever they see a profit for them.  So it is not going to be very unbelievable. But it is definitely a little weird to see them bringing in a player who is 30. But anyway, if he is able to perform well, they are not going to complain and neither are the fans.
most people know how Dortmund stepped up in european football and are known as team that creates new talent, so its only natural that Dortmund are currently trying to get a player like Niclas, who is 30 years old. Dortmund will try to score their talent this season and if successful they can get more quality talent and there is a high offer, of course Dorrmund will sell it and this has become part of Dortmund habit of always selling reliable player like when selling Bellingham and this does not mean Dortmund is imitating Bayern Munich which currently, they have succeeded in bringing in Kane, but Dortmund goal is to improve the talent of the newly recruited players.

Mbappe is very close to signing a new contract with PSG until 2026. This Player wanted to leave PSG for free in the next season but since he is under pressure and PSG wants to extend his offer with him, It seems Mbappe wants to extend his contract with PSG until 2026 but in the new contract there is a chance for this palter to leave in the next summer.
It seems true consider there was an update regarding mbappe's transfer saga from romano's tweet.

https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1697310529683968102

It says that if khelaifi already confirmed if mbappe is still PSG player this season but there have been many fans news coming on twitter like this https://twitter.com/MadridUniversal/status/1697384318836895748

Mbappe needs to make everything clear as soon as possible. Signing a new contract is not that bad for him.
considering Mbappe is a very high quality player he wants to join the right team who can give his career bigger to reach to UCL to get the title they want so its true if nothing is bad if one day he will sign for Real Madrid who can provides a great opportunity to get the title to the UCL because we all know that Madrid is one of the teams that has the most titles in the UCL. but back to PSG as the current owner of Mbappe who has the big right to decide whether PSG will release him to Real Madrid or continue to extend his contract.
If you look at the rumors that often spread about Mbappe and PSG, realistically next season Mbappe will leave PSG as a free agent.

I don't know why Juventus is doing this but we know Leonardo Bonucci was one of the most important and effective players in Juventus and he played there for years also he achieved many titles with this team but now Juventus doesn't want to keep this player any more and Bonucci, the captain of JJebtos is close to playing in Bundesliga for Union Berlin.

~
It is possible that Juventus have had many reasons why they don't want to play with Leonardo Bonucci again because it is seen from a very old age that the stamina he has is very different from when he was young, and Juventus are aware of this. Maybe there are many more reasons why Juventus got rid of Leonardo Bonucci. Union Berlin tried to take advantage of the situation by buying Leonardo Bonucci into its power. Hopefully, Leonardo Bonucci can still contribute fully to Union Berlin.
That is quite a natural thing for Juventus to do, Leonardo Bonucci is very old and his quality has also decreased greatly, so Leonardo Bonucci is no longer needed by the Juventus team, regardless of Leonardo Bonucci's contribution while at Juventus in the past, but now Juventus must realistically, they want to build a team from adversity and really need players who can contribute greatly to the team, I think it's the right move.

And the news that Leonardo Bonucci is going to Unio Berlin is quite strong now, maybe there Leonardo Bonucci can contribute and make quite a big impact on the team, the Union Berlin team is not as big as Juventus and the competition there is not as competitive as Serie A so it is possible for Leonardo Bonucci to get minutes play.
what Juventus is doing now will also be done by other teams when they have players who are a little older and also do not have a good contribution, they will definitely immediately sell these players because every team really wants to improve the quality of their players performance in each season to get the title they already have. planned by the coach of each team. so its very natural that Juventus does not retain Leonardo Bonucci, it not mean they do not appreciate it, but this is just a turnover of football players.

on the one hand, currently Juventus is in the process of improving its quality to be better than the previous season which was very bad and also Juventus wants to get back its glory days by getting new players to strengthen in every line.

Lazio started this season very badly, if you look at the quality of this team it has even decreased compared to last season, and he is joined in group E with Feyenoord, Atletico Madrid and Celtic, of course Atletico Madrid is very favorite in this group but for the second place I think to The 3 still have a chance.

Meanwhile in group H Barcelona met easy opponents, so I think they have to qualify from this season's group, otherwise it will be very embarrassing for the Barcelona team.

And it is true that Group F is the fiercest, PSG, Borussia Dortmund, AC Milan and Newcastle United, all of these teams have almost the same team quality and this is very difficult to predict because they all have the same chances.
out of the several groups you mentioned it seems like the easier one to get past the hurdles this match is just Barcelona with teams like Porto, Shakhtar Donetsk and Antwerp this is very easy team for Barcelona and for group F it seems true that there will be strong competition between the teams that are in in this group but if in my opinion it looks like the one who succeeds will qualify between PSG or Newcastle which lately has slightly improved in terms of performance.

and in group C there will be a bit of fierce competition between the holders of the most UCL titles and Napoli who currently have very big ambitions to qualify for finals of the UCL but even so it will not be easy to surpass the performance of Real Madrid.
2697  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will the transfers to the Saudi league become a problem for European football? on: September 01, 2023, 04:16:58 AM
It would be for sure. They are reeling in powerhouses of players which will definitely show in the performance of European Football moving forward. It would even affect its viewership since now, if you want to watch your idols play you'd have to tune in to the Saudi League instead of waiting for these new bloods from the European League to ripen up and be on par with the veterans. In any case this doesn't mean that the European League is done for. It's well established enough to suffer such defeat so I think the transfer of these players to newer leagues would incite major hiccups in the viewership and performance of the European League, but overtime the skill and anticipation of the people will catch up with it again.
as I said before that the large transfers carried out by teams from the SPL do not mean to give bad things to the European league. I mean, even though many star players were bought by teams from Saudi Arabia, that does not mean the league in Europe will lose its popularity because Europe is already very well established in terms of popularity and it is known throughout the country that the European league is the biggest football league in the world, so even though it lost several star players will not be a problem for teams in Europe and will still have many fans and spectators who will watch every match.

and the efforts of teams from the SPL are the same as teams in Europe in the past when they increased their popularity before they could be known throughout the country and this will be mutually beneficial between teams from Europe and teams from the SPL when European teams get big profits from offers of money with large values and the saudi arabia team got the star player they wanted and to be honest i support this.

Cheslea spent too much money when they got the new owner and even some players and coaches were complaining because of that but the other problem in Cheslea is about their new decision about the ten pounds they were giving to the fans for the games out of the home. It seems they are going to make it stop and this made the fans angry because they are spending too much money in the transfer window but they don't want to help the fans.

So true. Many fans were not happy with it but the thing that makes it feel dilemma. Chelsea was a private business entity, and the club needed to get profit after spending huge amounts of money, while at the same time the fans can also be considered as support system for the club itself. Im seeing the fans as consumers at the same time. Chelsea needs to think again regarding this. This club is so big and so many fans were critizing the decision being taken by the club.

The fans are accusing the club as penny-pinching now. It's bad to see that the management was taking such a decision which is bad for the fans. Will chelsea raise the price of its ticket as well?

there should be no need to increase ticket prices or even provide convenience for fans to be able to provide support to Chelsea to provide enthusiasm chemistry for this team. the presence of these fans has little effect on the performance or confidence of all the players and it is great enthusiasm when you hear the fans giving encouragement. so its only natural that at this time fans criticize Chelsea a little about ticket prices and spending a lot of money in this transfer market should not be a reason to increase ticket prices as unfair to fans.

btw, talking about Chelsea, it seems that in the upcoming match there will be a match against Nottingham and in this match I really want to see how Pochettino contribution or strategy is currently being talked about by many others and is superior in being able to revive Chelsea performance. I just want to guess if the final result will be a draw in that match. the reason I say this is because even though h2h Chelsea are superior but that was when Chelsea still had its glory but after entering last season the team condition was already bad and they were only able to draw against Nottingham.

^

I agree with you. The probability of winning in slots is roughly equal to the probability of winning in dice. This can be confirmed by the fact that these gambling games have approximately the same RTP. Naturally, the RTP for each individual gambler will be different so someone is more lucky in slots and someone dais. Personally, I have more luck in slots, so I prefer them over dice. But of course all of this is very subjective.
yep, thats true. in terms of RTP every gambler will have different returns, even though RTP has almost the same opportunities in every game, what I know is that sometimes RTP does not work according to these rules. I mean for example a dice game or slot game has an RTP of 96% but when it is played it does not match that 96% because everyone returns to the initial discussion about luck in gambling which will be the end of all that.

Its natural that you prefer slot games because slot games have an attractive appearance and sounds that seem to provide comfort or interest in betting there, even though dice games are also interesting but seem boring.
2700  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Reckless gambling starts after a win round. on: August 31, 2023, 07:46:44 PM

I judge that curiosity is not something real but more precisely the pursuit of losses. someone who is curious, he will not continue to chase when he sees that the losses are getting bigger, but for a gambling addict, he does not care about his budget, which continues to be sucked up, just because he believes that chasing losses can get his budget back. its actually about self control because bad control curiosity turns into greed that chases past losses.

this reckless betting starts with small things that are ignored, such as when a gambler has to be committed to a plan that has been set before betting but ignoring it all ends in poor control.

It's really about the discipline a gambler possess. Because no matter how curious you are on what a bet might turn out, if you have enough self-control and you know your limitations, then you will not persist to play because you know the consequences to begin with. Meanwhile, if you are already addicted in gambling, you won't mind overspending and giving much time dedicated to gambling. You will be nonchalant to the losses because you are greedy to get the winnings.


Hence, it's really essential to follow your boundaries. Do not fall into having some kind of cheat day because if you will do such, you might find yourself indulging on it more frequently. Prevention is always better than cure. You must focus on your goal so you won't get lost.

These are two statements between gamblers who come just for fun and also with gamblers who come to realize their high hopes, even though it is impossible but still they will believe that the big win will come. Here I see two differences between the two gamblers, and I would just suggest as you said above to keep gambling as a responsible gambler, I mean you can gamble but you must apply certain limits to each condition that you will experience there. Stay in a healthy mindset when gambling, and don't be tempted by anything that passes through your mind because it's just a fantasy and not a reality that will happen. That's right, do whatever it is that can make you stay in a healthy mindset, don't let you get caught up in lust or emotions, because obviously it will have a very negative impact on yourself.
Of course I believe that prevention is better than cure and regret will always come when you have lost everything.
discipline, commitment, consistency and gambling responsibility. this is very easy for us to say but it is very difficult to put into practice on our own, even though we have been successful several times and have strong control, in the end one day a problem occurs which triggers a gambler to lose control and give in to his emotional desires.

and for a healthy mindset or something similar, this is also one of the easy words but it is difficult to put it into practice yourself because sometimes we get a losing streak and we cannot accept the situation so a healthy mindset will turn into negative thoughts. and related to prevention is better than cure, this is one of the simple words that is easy to understand, that is, always try to overcome your own problems in gambling.
