New challenge is up, be careful guys I turned it back to yellow cards. Can't stand those corners, just seems so random to me. I would like to reward football knowledge and not luck but cards are also a bit ref dependent here. Looking for that perfect 3rd question.

This time I had to go with Madrid derby to finish it off. If Real wins this one that is basically already a title for them well before Christmas.
Great decision about corners. When I predict corners, I just pick random numbers without thinking much. Yeah, card depends on ref, but I think it's less random. You can predict it considering how dirty or not team is playing, is it there big rivalry between teams or simply check how many cards in average appointed ref shows.
Real win on Sunday would be big step to tittle, but I wouldn't call it tittle before Christmas. I doubt that they're going to play so stable well all season long. Few bad gamesand fight is alive again. Like last season, Atletico had solid lead, but in the end they almost wasted it .

Villarreal really impressed me. After all, leading against Atalanta 3:0 is serious thing. Especially considering that Villarreal don't score much this season. On the other hand, Atalanta defence is really poor this season, clean sheet would be big achivement for them.
So, Yellow Submarines is last team of Champions League round of 16, while Atalanta will have to play in Europa league.

I know that everyone is focused on Veestappen and Hamilton battle, but I want to mention Kimi Raikkonen. Upcoming race will be last in his long and memorable career. His debut was so long time ago back in 2001. One of last old school drivers in F1. Here is his best career moments:
https://youtu.be/2GJ9udIoGh8
I never been fan of Raikkonen, but you simply can't hate him. Amazing win in 2007 championship. Man of few words. Remember these epic team radios like "Leave me alone" or "where is my gloves and steering wheel:
 https://youtu.be/UJQzEAlZ57k
And I think this season isn't bad for him. After all, he is 3rd in standings with most overtakes with not that much competetive Alfa Romeo.

So, as expected Vitesse won easy against Mura and it means that Spurs must win against Rennes in postponed game.
My favourite underdog in Europe Slavia ended their match with Union 1:1 andwent to next round.

did not quite catch that in the beginning, but top team is going directly to 1/8 stage, and second placed are going through 1/16 phase with teams from Europa league
Good point, I also wasn't aware about this thing. I think it makes big difference, especially if 2nd place team will get strong opponent from Europa league.
3025  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Europa League Discussion Thread on: December 09, 2021, 10:07:41 PM
Who coud have thought that Spartak will finish 1st in the group. What a finish of game when Spartak goalkeeper saved penalty. Well, this season in Europe is very solid for them, despite unstable performance in local league. BTW, it's likely that Spartak coach Rui Vitoria will be sacked despite 1st place in group because of poor results in local league. It would be a bit strange.
While Napoli won against Leicester and foxes will have to play just in Conference league.
Crvena Zvezda survived game with Braga. Braga dominated game, but it ended 1:1 and both teams go to next round.
Congratulatios to Dinamo Zagreb fans. They won against West Ham youngsters and went to next round.
I'm surprised about big Real Sociedad win against PSV.  I didn't watched game, but from stats it looks that it wasn't that easy for Sociedad.
There wassome upsets in meaningless games which costs me money. Like Sturm draw with Monaco or Ferencvaros win against Bayer. Lesson for me not to bet on teams on last round when they already have guaranted 1st or 2nd place.
3026  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Europa League Discussion Thread on: December 09, 2021, 10:26:23 AM
Plenty of interesting games on last round. Napoli - Leicester looks most interesting. I'm backing Napoli there. This season Foxes look poor on away games and they don't have some players because of Covid.
Legia - Spartak game looks tricky. I think that Spartak is better team in general and if odds will he somewhat decent, I'll pick Spartak not to loose.
Real Sociedad - PSV. Sociedad is clearly favoured by bookmakers, I don't know why. Their recent results don't look good at all.
West Ham - Dinamo Zagreb. I avoid betting on West Ham today. They have guaranteed 1st place, while Dinamo still can't be confident. Especially if Genk will win against Rapid
3027  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Europa Conference League Discussion Thread on: December 08, 2021, 10:17:31 PM
So dittoup alerted me yesterday to an ongoing situation with Rennes. Apparently, the odds for them to win was almost 10/1, and then Spurs got hit with some Covid situation, taking odds down to 7/1 and below. Seems it's just gotten from bad to worse though, six players and 2 staff already positive. They're now writing to postpone Sunday's premleague game so I guess Conte will have to try and rescue their Conference season with B team? And we all know they suck badly haha.

Rennes is now at 36/10. Well done all you who got it at super odds.
And game is posptoned. Interesting what new date of game will be because this game should be played before end of 2021 and in upcoming weeks Spurs have very intensive calendar. Fact that Spurs asked to posptone this game probably shows that this tournament matters for them. Otherwise they would agree to play with their youngsters.

Bayern 3:0 Barcelona. We didn't had anything to offer against Bayern. About what we can talk when we scored just 2 goals in group stage. Only Dynamo and Malmo scored less. Welcome to Europa league.
While Benfica simply did what they were supposed to do.
Salzburg won against Sevilla, this is something unexpected. It was very poor campaign for Sevilla, but now they can move to their favourite tournament Smiley.
Lille beat Wolfsburg unexpected easy.
Young United squad didn't managed to beat Young Boys. But it wasn't enough for Young Boys and they didn't even reached Europa league.
Zenit - Chelsea was great game. When did last time Werner scored twice? And what goal equalizer by Ozdoev on last minute.
Atalanta - Villarreal posptponed to tomorrow, direct fight for 2nd place.
3029  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- Group Stage! on: December 08, 2021, 04:44:28 PM
I'm feeling nervous before Bayern - Barca game. Despite that all odds goes against Barca, I believe that it's possible to win tonight. I put little bet on our win.
I would skip betting on Chelsea today. This game have zero importance for them, so without main players they may not win today.
Juventus - Malmo - over 2.5 @1.62
Group G games looks very tricky where all 4 teams are still in fight. My only bet on this group games is BTTS @1.85 on Salzburg - Sevilla game and I skip Wolfsburg - Lille.
Atalanta - Villarreal should be very interesting. I'm a bit surprised that Atlanta is so clearly favoured, but now they're playing very solid. I can't say same thing about Villarreal.

Note: I can't disclose the name of the local hardware wallet due to safety reasons [e.g. various threats] against a few of the scammers I've exposed before and in case someone mentions why I'm participating in a local board on this forum, I'm not residing in there.
I t would be very interesting to see this hardware wallet, but I completely understand your concerns why you're not sharing it. I tried to make little search for this wallet, but failed to find anything.

The ugly color was chosen to stand out from my too many USB sticks Cheesy
Well, at least it's not pink Cheesy. Probably 90% of people buy black wallet, so, I even forgot that you can pick color. BTW, maybe someone have one of these limited edition Ledger like Bitcoin Pizza Day edition or Bitcoin White Papper edition?

Nowadays  I use it once a month,  as here im Brazil we are allowed to sell each month about 5k usd per month without paying tax gains.
That's really nice law. I'm moving to Brazil Smiley. In my country you can make just €2500 gains (about $2800) without being taxed.

I do not think that Bayern will let Barca get away without few goals in their net
there is a rivalry, Bayern won against Dortmund over the weekend, so title should is not questioned (it is still early, and small difference, but for Bayern is important to be on top, and they will have winning strike in the second half, to ensure the title)

but, I would like to see Benfica out after their episode with Belenenses, there was no fair-play there, so cheering for Kyiv is a best option
I would rather wait for an gift from Dynamo than expect that we will beat Bayern. Though, Dynamo fight for nothing already. For me Bayern don't look like a team which is going to rest some players. As said already, they have easy life in Bundesliga and in recent years they have rivalry with Barca, so, I doubt that they're going to play like in meaningless game.
Don't know how big factor it will be, but this game will be played in empty stadium. I watched Leipzig - MC game today and without fans this game was hardly watchable for me.

Ajax might still be able to advance further this season, they're playing on almost the same level like they did that year or even better, but then the draws/fixture might actually have to be in their favour too, because it's tougher if they have to play big teams at every step of the way.
Completely agree about Ajax. I think this season they're capable to go far, maybe even reach semifinal like few years ago. They look amazing, they score a lot and concede very few goals.
3032  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- Group Stage! on: December 07, 2021, 10:08:05 PM
I'm a bit sad that Milan didn't even qualified to Europa league and finished last. But it's death group and someone had to die. Liverpool won without most of main players. Milan had their chances, like Kessie who failed to score in the end. BTW, quality of pitch in San Siro looks awful.
Porto 1:3 Atletico. Result don't fully reflect game, but I think Atletico deserved to win and go to next round. Griezmann scored on of easiest goals in his career. But I think that red card that Porto got was very cheap and not right.
Didn't watched Real - Inter game. I expected something more from Inter, but Real now in very good shape.
Shakhtar is probably biggest disappointment for me in UCL. Last place in group with just 2 points with good squad and so much money spent in summer. While Sheriff is biggest surprise. Small club from not existing country with 7 points and they will continue in Europa league.
Ajax again had easy life against Sporting. Borussia humiliated Besiktas 5:0 and said goodbye to Champions league on a high note. While IMO Besiktas was completely worst team on tournament this season.
3033  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- Group Stage! on: December 07, 2021, 05:35:02 PM
Before betting on last round games, it's worth to look at tables because some favorites may rest their main players
Leipzig - City. Good odds for City, but it's meaningless game for them, while Leipzig still fight for Europa league spot. So, I avoid betting on City today and pick BTTS and over 2.5 goals, despite that odds isn't high.
In PSG - Brugge game I don't see any chances for Brugge. So, my bet is over 3.5 goals @1.80.
3034  Other / Meta / Re: If the signature campaings are removed from the forum, will you stay or leave? on: December 07, 2021, 01:21:40 PM
When I joined forum, I didn't even knew what is signature campaign. My first thought when I heard tthis term for the first time was that someone is paying for signing in various petitions or something similar Cheesy.
So, I didn't joined Bitcointalk for signature campaigns and I definitely wouldn't leave if it would removed. When I wasn't in sig. campaign, I simply wear my own not paid signature and I didn't even become less active.
Though, it's possible that without paid signature I would a bit less active, but I doubt that change would be significant. On the other hand, if most members would become less active then, automatically it would mean that we would have less active topics where we can comment, answer questions, share knowledge and so on.

Second round of FA Cup is almost over. Last game between Boreham and St Albans City is now in action and replay of Barrow - Ipsvich Town will be played next week. Lowest ranked team in next round will be Kidderminster Harriers from 6th division. There is also 3 teams from 5th tier.
Today draw of FA Cup third round has been made:

Seriously tho, I have a Ledger Nano S, Trezor ONE and a BitHD Razor (that I got sent as a review unit):
I remember BitHD also offered me to send wallet. But then they said that they can't send it because of covid-19 pandemic which started in China and later they refused to send it because their shipping agency don't deliver to my country. It was kinda strange because I live in EU, not North Korea or other problematic country.

You have managed to preserve its condition nicely, good for you. Is the display quality the same after all these years?
Yeah, display quality looks same like new. I haven't used it at max brightness, so, probably it helped.

Somehow I missed Atletico game and I realized that they lost to Mallorca only today when I was cheking Sunday's fixtures on Flashscore.
Real is slowly turning their lead into significant. They not only beat their direct competitors but also they get gifts from them when they fail to beat underdogs.
Another terrible round for me. Almost all 50/50 predictions in game without clear favorite went completely wrong for me.
3038  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Show off your hardware wallet on: December 05, 2021, 09:51:48 PM
I'm also awful when I have to remwmber dates or numbers, I just remember that I bought on Black Friday. So, I dig up deep in my email and I found that I bought my Nano S back in 2017, so, I already have it for 4 years. And here is how it looks:


I don't use it very often, so, it looks almost like new. You can see little scratch on metal part of wallet, but honestly, I haven't even noticed it before I took photo with flash light. Now I'm looking into it with my eyes and I can't see that scratch. Well, maybe it was just some dirt.
Plastic part and screen of my Ledger looks perfect without any scratches.
I suppose that it would look much worse if I would use it on daily basis.
From all box content I only use USB cable, but unlike you I removed foil from it Cheesy

I'm watching F1 for long time already, but it was one of craziest races I ever saw. Max behaviour is so dirty. Maybe even more dirty than Shumacher. And we saw again how struggle to handle pressure and it can cost him Champion title. But it's worth to mention his amazing restart from P3 to P1.
And I haven't saw such emotional TotoWolf for long time - first he almost brake table after accident and later celebrated win like crazy.
Bottas drag race against Occon and P3 on finish line was cherry on top for Mercedes. Now constructor's trophy is almost in their hands.
In one my post I predicted that we may see safety cars and red flags on the race, but it was difficult to expect such crazy things.
All square before las round - did we ever had both title contenders with same amount of points before last race?

WTF they are doing with the rules.

The director of the race is doing offers to give positions at the restart.

THIS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE AND IT IS NOT ON RULES.

WTF he is doing.
It was really epic, but in previous seasons we haven't heard conversations between teams and FIA, so, maybe it didn't happened for the first time.

@morvillz: Really, has it only been less than 10 years? I seem to remember in my mind goal-line tech was in place in English football several years after 2004 when Chelski's Mourinho wouldn't stop talking about Luis Garcia's supposed ghost goal. Oh those were the lovely days when we kept delaying Chelsea's march to UCL haha.
I think that goal line technology was introduced much later. Remember that famous disallowed Lampard goal against Germany in 2010 World Cup. In EURO 2012 there was similar disallowed goal in Ukraine - England game. So, in EPL they started to use this technology only after these scandals.
I have strange feeling watching these old videos. My first thought is why ref isn't going to watch VAR and only later I realize that we have VAR just for few years so far Cheesy.
