Perhaps they feel uncomfortable with other people's opinions in their environment, so they continue to hide their gambling activities so that there will be problems with these people. Each person chooses to hide or even show it to their environment, whichever makes them feel comfortable telling the truth to others.

Perhaps we would say that is a wrong vision, but not for them because they certainly have their own considerations. We just need to know it because that's what they want. Yes, you are right that there are IFs, which would be a reason people hide or show them to others. Whether you become addicted or can still control your gambling activities will depend on each person because we gamble using our money, and we should be able to be responsible with ourselves and our money.

It depends really on the preferences of a person. Some person might be comfortable with many people knowing their gambling habits, however some might find a hard time sharing it with others. And no matter what reason they might have, it's all valid. Perhaps some people have a negative experience about others knowing it such as others invading their privacy or prying too much on their personal lives to the point they feel like suffocating because others have so much opinion for them or controls how they should act. So I totally get it if some prefer to keep being low key and have only few people know about their gambling habits.
Rightly said it's a more of a preference related thing, some persons are introverts and can be secretive with their habits regardless of the form in which it takes, they also may have persons they place some level of trust on to be confidential with the information if shared with them, so these person would rather just share with a few persons especially those with which they share common view that sharing with the public.

Meanwhile some share their gambling habits wilt the public with reasons of making more money sharing their picks to the public, as this will attract people to subscribing to their various channels especially when their predictions turns out to be winner more often, you find people getting interested in their channels and end up subscribing both for VIPs and regular, that way these persons end up making more money from these subscription. these and many other reasons are why some persons do keep their gambling habit either public or make it private.

Btts @1.66 over 2 @1.38 over 2.5@1.8

There may be no a lot of goals to happen for this match. Over 2 odds is very small compared btts. I would to say if the chance for btts to happen is having same chance to happen with over 2.5 but i would prefer to take btts instead of over 2.5
Marseille will be facing a strong club this season in the league 1. It doesn't even make sense for me to take 1x2 nice caused by marseille was also very strong at this moment.

Even though marseille was placing below nice but it can't be underrated team at this moment. Im feeling if nice will win the game but luck is also playing an important role in this game.
Nice remains my favourite for this game and I think they are going to win considering they are at advantage from home, Nice happens to be at the top of the table with an unbeaten record in the Ligue 1 this season, which by all indication they wouldn't want to start their loosing streak at home to Marseille who happens to be at sixth position on the table with some kind of weak stats

Not to undermine Marseille but then I think they are not going to win but may probably secure a draw, although it's possible that regardless of the odds anything possible can happen as there have been cases of such in recent past but at this point, Nice stand to be at a competitive position such that loosing this single match would cost them a lot as the other two teams behind them is just with a difference of one point so they may fall to fifth position if they loose this match and PSG wins along side Brest, so Marseille would have to play hard and if they are lucky they could get a draw, but they are most unlike to get a win but then this is football where anything is possible.

Mendilibar's time has ended at Sevilla recently and Diego Alonso has been appointed to the manager position. Sevilla have started to change their manager very often in the recent times. Sampaoli, Mendilibar and now Diego Alonso... I don't believe this is a good action to take for a team.

Because the system mostly changes and the players have to adapt to the new one every time. They have to get along with the new manager as well. Rather than that I think Sevilla should have given it some time. They won the Europa League title with Mendilibar in the end.
I think Sevilla should not rush in sacking Jose Luis Mendilibar. Because Mendilibar was actually an important figure who brought big changes to the Sevilla squad last season. Sevilla even avoided the relegation zone in Laliga and managed to win the Europa League title with Mendilibar.
Even though Sevilla haven't shown a good performance this season, I still think that giving more time to Jose Luis Mendilibar would be much better. Because currently Sevilla also has an important match in the Champions League. And of course changing the current coach is a bad decision.

Even if Diego Alonso could become a good coach for Sevilla, improvements will not occur instantly. Everything definitely requires adaptation and is quite a long process. And actually, Sevilla currently doesn't have enough time to adapt to a new coach. Because a busy match schedule and a change of coach will only make things worse.

Sevilla in the Champions League currently has not experienced a defeat nor has they won. Two matches only ended in draws. And I think that's still quite better than losing. But I'm also curious whether Diego Alonso will really make a drastic improvement in Sevilla's performance or if it will actually get worse. Let's see.
Personally I don't think Sevilla have a coaching problem so they shouldn't be in a haste to sack Luis Mendilibar considering how well he has performed so far in with the team, last season he helped them finish reasonably in the league and even qualified for the UCL something that initially felt difficult for the team, so he is considerably still worth giving some time maybe he could improve.

Although Sevilla hasn't been at their best this season but they aren't at their worse either and the season is still yet halfway so there is still enough room for improvement, he should only improve in his tactics and his formation, they may most likely start getting some wins enough to take them up the table again. The frequent change of manager could affect the teams performance and this time it may most likely not turn out really fine as the teams is already getting along with their currently manager, any changes will mean a start all over again and this is not healthy especially for their position in the UCL.

ofc reliable income through gambling is not sustainable. Be careful tryint to use bonuses to earn also.
It’s not only sustainable it’s also highly unadvisable because we will be filled with disappointment like the Op, one thing is that we should always have a source and means of earning and gambling can just be use as mean of trying luck if we can win extra money which can help us grow.

Bonus I see that as one of the annoying way of scamming gamblers we get deceived by the amount that’s giving to us as bonus but the wager that is required to clear off that bonus is one thing that looks like we are just working for the casino, bonuses unless for those who are always lucky enough to clear up the requirement if not I see it as a means of reducing winning chances.
Bonuses in some cases make you unable to withdraw the little wins you are able to have gathered at times, because the wager on it will sometimes require you to win almost twice the amount and in most case the chances are very very slim so you may end up still loosing everything to the casino, it's more likely a bait to attract more gambler to their platform so they can make more profits.

Winning doesn't really affect the mental health what really does affect the mental health I think is losses, when there is a continues series of losses, the person experiencing such tends to loose their minds aswell and in some cases try to want to get back at the casino by staking bigger in oder to win big and probably recover all they have lost o far and most times they end up in even more losses than they would if they were not playing with such mindset, it's always advised you play for fun and play responsibly that way you keep yourself at lesser risk .

Napoli's start to the new season was not very optimistic. They are ranked 5th, 7 points behind top team AC Milan. This caused coach Rudi Garcia's chair to shake violently. After the departure of coach Luciano Spalletti, who helped Napoli win the Serie A championship, Garcia - who previously led Lyon and Al-Nassr, was given the opportunity to help the home team defend the title. However, he had a difficult start. If he does not improve the team's situation, he may be fired.
Antonio Conte is the number 1 name if Rudi Garcia is fired. Currently, he has yet to find a new job since leaving Tottenham in March. Coach Conte's talent was proven when he won the Serie A championship with Juventus and Inter Milan. Will Napoli's leadership fire Garcia?
Definitely considering that the Napoli's leadership has little to no tolerance to consistent failure they will definitely fire Garcia soonest considering recents that has been happening in the team and the fact that Garcia has proven to be unable to manage the team properly amidst crisis and produces desired results for a team who is the most recent champions of the league.

Conte is most likely to get a job soon considering his records he has achieved so far before now, he stands to be a better replacement for Gracia but I think bringing him in in the middle of the season wouldn't be a perfect idea although it's possible he could give out good performance but the players may have it a bit hard trying to cope with the new strategy he will be introducing and to them and his coaching style so it will be better if Gracia is fired by the end of the season. It's possible he could improve before the season runs out but then if the team finish anything below top three on the table then Gracia should be considered to have failed

Guirassy has been like one man army for Stuttgart. He scored more than 50% of the number of goals the team have scored so far. His career has evolved into something different since he joined Stuttgart by the way. There is even a huge difference between his last season performance and this one.

But of course it is still doubtful how long Stuttgart can move on like this. Despite Guirassy's incredible scoring effort I don't think they can be a part of a title competition this season. But maybe this high effort can help them to get a ticket for a European competition next season.  Smiley
Most times it's very true that the team where you find yourself affects how well to will gain recognition except you become so exceptional that your skill alone is making the team break forth to unusual stands in the league. This can be seen in the case of Guirassy, the team Stuttgart where he is currently playing is not know for having excellent  performance in the league.

Stuttgart is usually consider an average team in the bundesliga as the always manage to finish in safe spots to keep them in the league, although I'm not too sure but I doubt if they have won the league title before as champions, so all this contribute to their little status, but with the current performance of Guirassy that is rapidly taking them up the table they will get the desired attention needed and am sure soon bigger teams may develop interest in guirassy and Stuttgart will either want to retain him or use him as an opportunity to enlarge the teams purse.

Honestly, I do love your prediction. Both Galatasaray and Bayern Munich are having same home and away records this season, they both have won four game and ended up drawing one
Imagine what the next possible outcome would be?  I'm in this with you, you get me?

I don't have a good idea of the players in and those absent but these statistics tells me it'll end as a full draw or both of them sides scoring themselves that to be safe.

Arsenal would be hosted when they travel to Spain for the clash between Sevilla and Gunners. I expect gunners winning but Sevilla recently dumped the Europa League winning coach for a new, there'll be improvement. But less positivity until it's done.

I also predict Munich will win even though it is a bit difficult. I predict this match will not end with a difference of 3 goals or more. Both teams are equally strong even though Munich's level is far above Galatasaray. I still choose a Munich win even though a draw is also very possible. For Arsenal, I'm sure Arsenal will win that match. Their win over City has given them good confidence against Seville.
Personally I will say I have no doubts about Munich winning the match against Galatasaray because Munich is a way better side compared to Galatasaray, the fact the won Manchester united does not mean they could do same with Munich, yeah the goal difference may not vary much but they are definitely not getting a win but a draw could be possible although it's very unlikely.

Munich needs to win as after this game their fate at the group stage will be fully decided so they will definitely not give a chance to it, Galatasaray aswell have a little to loose if they loos they will only become the second in the group but Manchester united is the team that has got a lot of work to do as they are left with no point in that group at the moment. Arsenal is aswell getting a win against Sevilla, my optimism about this is very strong because Sevilla is a struggling team even in their domestic league and Arsenal is in a good form and very much ready to take on any team.
3128  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: October 12, 2023, 01:31:30 PM
When he was at Ajax and Inter Milan, we all saw the quality of Andre Onana. Yes, he is a good goalkeeper. But somehow when he moved to Man Utd we could see that Onana seemed to have lost his ability as a good goalkeeper. The mentality of a world-class goalkeeper like Onana should be that he can maintain his performance wherever he is.
Onana is a good goalkeeper and I don't deny this fact because I will fail to do this. It's true to say Onana got more attention from big clubs after he had an amazing adventure with Inter Milan in the last season, went to a final match and lost minimally against Manchester City with a striker from Rodri. However, we must consider another fact that one excellent season is not enough to make Onana as a world class goalkeeper. He must prove more and after a transfer to Manchester United and Premier League, we already are able to assess his quality better.
Well maybe you're right. However, Onana has even competed on bigger stages, such as when he defended his national team, namely Cameroon, in the World Cup. But it seems that his experience at big clubs does not show that he is a good world-class goalkeeper. But I'm sure that when Man United's defense is improved and Onana adapts well to Man Utd then maybe he will return to his best performance.

But I read on wikipedia about Onana being sent home from the world cup tournament after playing Serbia. He was sent home because he was considered a disciplinary problem. So I question Onana's own character after seeing this.


Sourch: www.bbc.com / wikipedia
No doubts onana has some good history in his former teams where he has played and that has dragged so much attention to him which earned him the move to Manchester united, he had an excellent season last season as he was able to make it to the UCL finals but then it's important to know that maintaining a status is what makes you really outstanding enough.

If he should be seen as a world class keeper he should be able to defend the status by maintaining good track record consistently regardless of where he finds himself, de gea is a world class keeper and has maintained it everywhere he has been even in his current team his is doing so well maintaining cleans sheets, but onana ever since he left his former team he has found it really difficult adapting even if the defense he is working with is poor he should have some performance enough that we would see clearly that it's solely a defense issues but here we can see how is part of the problem aswell, I think judging him by one excellent season was the worst mistake of Erik ten hag.

But I still don't expect Arsenal to lose the lead to them or any other team at the end of the group stage. I expect them to make up for this loss by staying strong against Sevilla in both matches. Sevilla were nearly defeating PSG with that poor match. But I feel like they can only get one point home from Arsenal and that's all.
Lens is quite superior compared with arsenal at this moment. Sevilla was not as good as what it used to be but sevilla is slowly but surely showing the creativity on its gameplay.
This club deserves a spot in the play off. I would prefer to see sevilla to go to the play off instead of arsenal. Sevilla needs to comeback as soon as possible.

Sevilla is still having a chance to beat arsenal.

I'm not confident about Sevilla to do that honestly. If Sevilla would like to defeat Arsenal they need to play better than that. Maybe they were nearly defeating PSV away with that poor game but this wouldn't work many times. I will be expecting to see a better Arsenal against Sevilla in both matches.

Those matches are critical to make things clearer in the group. I think these matches will decide Sevilla's fate and that might be the Europa League once again. Sevilla might even end at the last position as well because Lens have been doing much better than I predicted.
The idea that lens is superior as compared to arsenal is really not sounding well to me, because how on earth dose such comparison even makes sense I mean a team who just recently struggled out of the relegation zone in the the Ligue 1, a messy league currently, is now ben compared with arsenal that is at the tops of the table in the EPL and also toping it's group in the UCL common it's really not making sense.

Sevilla isn't a very bad team at the moment but they aswell also seem to be struggling with climbing up the table in the Spanish league, I wonder what exactly is the inspiration behind all these comparison because these teams are not really average teams to compare with a top team like arsenal at the moment, if it were to be two seasons ago this comparison could make sense.

If Arsenal dose not get any of it's players on injury before then or get any of it's play become fatigue prone , then Sevilla should definitely wait for another round of defeat because I'm sure arteta will not leave chance's to them to gat a win as his aim for this season is high and he is not giving in to any form of compromise. So thinking Sevilla would win Arsenal could be seen as not possible although I know it's football and anything can happen but ideally it's not feasible
3130  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: It's a strategy to lose on: October 11, 2023, 10:08:39 PM
Gambling is based on luck for real but that doesn't mean you should be dividing your attention into poker, soccer, horse racing, or roulette all at once, you need to choose a side and learn everything you can about the game. This is the mistake that many gamblers are making, they believe since it's all about luck they should expand the possibility to get lucky and it always end up badly for them.

It's no doubt that Poker for example is all about been cunning, logical and deception to gain power over your opponent, it's called upper advantage, this is way different from games like Blackjack, roulette or Slots.

So imagine doing all these together, most gambling games needs your understanding of the odds and taking them into account, especially when wagering, so how can a gambler get involved in all games at once just to increase their chances of getting lucky? Stop this as it's not a strategy to win, it's a strategy to lose.
A jack of all trades is a master of none so they say and truly if you master the act in a particular game you gain more experience enough to be able to get yourself to the winning advantage in the game , but spreading your options across every game gives you less opportunity to get a win as you may get confused and mixup things in some cases and this will definitely affect your results.

It's best to master a particular game and be experienced I'm the art of that game, that Way you have created an edge over other contenders which gives you more chances of winning than you would loose but with too many options you don't tend to build that edge around your games enough as the dynamic of each may vary and switching in-between would probably not be good enough to give you the required dedication to achieve desired results.
3131  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambler avoiding friends after a big win. on: October 11, 2023, 09:55:58 PM
I could remember a similar tale of someone who won in my locality sometime back, he disappeared after the news of his huge win counting to millions, spread in the neighborhood.
It is just the way it is with money. You get to see the real behavior of someone who just won big or suddenly came into millions.

Am sure if you won, you would disappear for sometime too, but with the closeness of such friends, I think a portion of what I have won should be given them, either as a gift item of choice or a sponsored outing or trip of remarkable adventure and fanfare.

If such friends had done something similar to him during their own win, it should be fair what this guy in the story did.
Disappearing sometimes may be for security reasons, because getting a big win comes with so much that you may not be able to imagine when you are yet to have such amount. Some friends could automatically turn enemies over night just because they heard you have got such huge amount, they could be so jealous such that they will go out of their way to make sure you don't enjoy your wins.

It's very much better after such big wins give the much you dim fit to your friends and disappear for awhile that way you find safety for yourself and enough space to spend your money wisely and in your desired style, aside your friends the news could definitely spread and unknown persons may stand as a threat to you even without your knowledge, but fleeing is a possible measure to keep safe till when the pressure from your news dies down you can come back and live your normal live but I strongly advise you relocate.

I think Manchester United is gonna wake up and ended up going to the next round, they ahve luck on their side because the other two teams of the group asides of Bayern Munich are weak (Copenaghe and Galatasaray) if that were not the case they can be already more out than in.

I'm not sure about the waking up part for Manchester United for now. It was totally normal to see them losing to Bayern Munich first. They even resisted really well by scoring 3 goals as well. However that loss against Galatasaray wasn't as expected as that one. They are literally at the bottom of the group with 0 points now.

Maybe Copenhagen matches would be an opportunity for them to collect some decent amount of points. But for now it is difficult to predict how many points they can collect in those matches. Copenhagen might even steal points from them home. We have seen Copenhagen doing good against Bayern Munich home the last time.

I personally do not think Manchester United is actually going to finish in any kind of respectable position in the Champions League. They will be very lucky to actually finish in any kind of decent position in the English Premier League. Expecting anything from Manchester United in the Champions League is actually a dumb expectation in my opinion.

Yes, they do have a chance against Copenhagen. But the way they have been inconsistent, it is probably not a good idea to expect a win from them to be honest. There is nothing to be surprised if the match ends in a draw. And personally, I will not be surprised if they actually end up losing the match.
It's very true Manchester united have been characterized with so much of inconsistency recently but then the issues leading to this inconstancy is something they can definitely resolve before the season comes to an end and possibly before mid season they should be able to get themselves fixed if Erik ten hag gets to work as quickly as possible.

With Copenhagen they would most definitely utilize that opportunity and probably kick start their new streaks of winning from there if only they change their strategy or tactics and get the players in their right position with perfect combination aswell. The defence system is another aspect of the team Erik ten hag have to work on seriously els he will continue conceding more goals and may hardly secure wins, the defense is so weak they it will cost stronger team less efforts to break in. But with good improvement I'm sure the red devils still have a chance to secure a good position in the UCl as they still gat some good number of game to play.
3133  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are successful gamblers seen as addicts? on: October 11, 2023, 09:00:43 PM
But if it is a gambling addiction, it will only give them problem after problem, especially if they don't understand when they should stop gambling and just want to gamble. The big difference between successful gamblers and gamblers who are addicted to gambling is that there is no self-control when gambling. There are no clear boundaries regarding the use of money and time so gamblers who are addicted to gambling only spend their time gambling. Even though he still has other things he can do to reduce his time gambling.

And yes, someone who is addicted can lose many things in their life including their family. Meanwhile, successful gamblers can still enjoy their lives well and still have the money they earn from gambling. He can also do other interesting things that can benefit him more.
Successfully gamblers can also be seen with some level of relativity, personally I could say there are two types of this successful gamblers, one are those who happens to gat a big win once and quit gambling after wards, they could possibly be considered successful because they got a level of success and went on to build on it in a different venture.

Another class of successful gamblers could be seen as those have gotten some level of experience over the years and have got a strategy with which they gamble that usually turns out profitable for them most often than it turns against them, this people are successful and still in the act to consolidate on their success, now observing carefully you would see that the first set of successful gambler's were lucky and immediately discontinued

This is because they don't want to get to point nof addiction because they don't have a pattern with which they gamble they were only lucky at a shot , while the second do have a system with which they use to continually stay consistent and successful making it easy for them to keep their habit under control and not possibly get addicted.

~snip~
If you are a successful businessman or a boss, maybe you have a lot of time to pay attention to your children and supervise them all the time because you can just stay at home watching them and let your subordinates trust you to manage your business, but if you are a worker it will obviously be difficult. because it will take up your time while working, but no matter how hard you watch them it won't help you more, you might also neglect your business or work

The point is, just entrust it to someone who looks after them or your wife because they might understand them better and be able to supervise them full time, whereas you are a man who has to work and do business outside the home to support them so it won't be possible to always be at home, the point is to give a message to your nanny and wife about the dangers of gambling and keep them away from there.
At least we have a partner who can help supervise and pay attention to our children so they don't do bad things. This requires cooperation with our partners so that each can do their job well because it is all for our children. And every parent is willing to do the best for their children.

But if they already have a gambling addiction, getting them out of there may take more work. And even though we don't know how long we can help the healing process, we must continue to accompany him so that he knows we are always with him. We as parents, might be able to ask him to do something to divert his attention so he can focus on other things.
Giving out the responsibility of looking after your kids to some one else from outside is not ideal because it's definitely not a guarantee they would do their job exactly as expected of them, at some point they could be negligent or better still the kids could device means to get away with what ever it is they are doing around their guardians and you wouldn't get to know.

In the case of gambling addiction the kids could have gotten this trait and possibly hide it from their hired guardian and it will never come to their notice as they will not be with the kids always except during their official working hour's. So I don't think leaving them to a hired guardian will do any better on them as some guardians in the bid to act professionally will have restrictions and can not possibly monitor the child enough as you the parents will do.

In the case of the parents, you have full access and control over your kind at almost any point in time and you can take decision for them  without been cautioned and to a very large extent you could possibly pip into their privacy to get a glimpse of what they do, something your hired guardian could possibly not do, this way you can spot these habits earl enough to curb them.

The odds for the Milan - Juventus game are like this:

Milan: 2.30   Juventus: 3.20

Maybe the odds would have been a little closer to each other but it is still fair I think. Because Milan have won all of their home games so far and they are in the lead in the standings as well. They only lost to Inter which was a really huge one. But it still didn't affect them much mentally. That has been the only point loss for them so far. They just can't underestimate Juventus on one hand because Juventus are also impressive this season. If we see the usual Milan they should at least be winning by one goal.  Smiley
Odds @2.30 are really good, and I think it seems quite worthy if betting on Milan. Also, on the other side, this season Juventus has lost when playing away against Sassuolo. So it seems there is a possibility that Milan will win and successfully secure the three points, at home Milan is very consistent and I personally believe Milan can win but I agree with you maybe not with big score.
Somehow instinctively I just tend to stan Milan more, I just don't have very solid reasons but then Milan just happens to be my favorite for this match, Juventus has not really been the best with away games this season and Milan isn't a weak team to say would give Juventus an easy chance to steal points from them especially at their home, Milan would rather prefer to share the points.

Juventus at the third position on the table has lost three times this season and had some six wins with three draw. Juventus loosing to sassuolo and it's a weak team as compared to AC Milan so if they lost to such a team meeting AC Milan will mean a loss or probably a difficult time or a very hard game to win which they are most likely not to get.

When Bayer Leverkusen played against Bayern Munich, I thought maybe the match would be a match where Bayer Leverkusen would lose. But in reality, Bayer Leverkusen managed to hold Bayern Munich to a draw and of course, this result is at least a sign that Bayer Leverkusen has a good chance of being able to compete well in the race for the Bundesliga title this season. The reason is, in the Bundesliga at least Bayern Munich is the team to benchmark, at least to determine whether a team like Bayer Leverkusen can still get points or not. So yes, with Bayer Leverkusen success so far without being defeated, then of course I personally believe Bayer Leverkusen can do better than Dortmund in the title race with Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga this season.
Bundesliga would be quite different from the ones we've experienced and watch, this season comes with a great deal of competitive games and a long run for the league title between elite teams. This is definitely the time for Bayer Leverkusen to proof Bayern Munich wrong, definitely not a domestic crown or hereditary were the Bavarians would be winning in consecutive rows. Bayer Leverkusen surprised everyone after drawed points with the Bundesliga giant, Xabi Alonso have prepared the mind and energy of his players for competitive games. Though I'm aware that other teams will join in the race, teams like Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig will anticipate.
I'm really enjoying the competitiveness that came with the bundesliga this season, it will really make bigger team come to the realization that the game Could be turned around and smaller teams can possibly get a chance to win the league title if they stay consistent, bigger teams will now have to work hard to get deserving wins unlike last season where there were landslide victories from bigger teams alone.

But now we could see the likes of xabis team becoming formidable enough to hold Munich to a draw, which is a sign of a better level of confidence which can be matched with the ability to facing any team in the bundesliga, Xabi is aspiring to win the league title if possible, as an achievement in his young coaching age, which is very possible with the current performance seen in his team at the moment.

After the last 2 matches must lose, Manchester City will host Brighton in the upcoming match. Brighton also has the status of not an easy opponent to beat, they play well even though the last 2 matches they also struggled and had to lose and draw. Manchester City must not underestimate them in this match, if they do then Brighton has the potential to give them 3 defeats in a row. The absence of KDB affects their attack line, yes now they are a little difficult in building attacks and providing passes that spoil their attackers.
Both Manchester City and Brighton appreciate the match, but for different reasons. Manchester City must revive their campaign to maintain title chances after recent losses, including a 3-2 loss to Liverpool. Although struggling in recent matches, Brighton recently won 1-0 over Tottenham Hotspur and are showing great fight. They must prove something, and what better way than against a quality team like Manchester City?

Manchester City's aggressive front is hampered by Kevin De Bruyne's absence, making it easier for Brighton to cling on. Key players like Lewis Dunk and Neal Maupay are suspended, but will return for the final day travel to Arsenal. This might put Brighton in a difficult position to replace these vacancies. In the away league, the Seagulls have never won versus City, which increases their odds of losing​3.

Brighton's recent run of ties and losses with one win suggests inconsistency. Possible lineup changes due to injuries and bans complicate Brighton's strategy for the game. Despite their recent form, many foresee a 3-0 or 2-0 win for Manchester City.

I'm not seeing manchester City win this encounter,they are going to lose three consecutive premier league matches.They are playing Brighton,and with recent records,City finds it very difficult to win against Brighton.They are normally scared of playing them,and with the fact that Debruyne will not be playing that game will give an edge to Brighton in the encounter.Meanwhile,City will be looking forward to bouncing back from their two defeats against Wolves and Arsenal,and would maximise the players they have to fill in the void left by Debruyne and other injured players at the team.If Brighton should win this game,it will definitely demoralize City,and will make other premier league teams fight more hard to win the reigning champions.
I don't think pep will allow Brighton get away with a win  not in their home, the absence of debruyne is not a full assurance that Brighton could possibly get a win over Manchester city, he is not the only player in Manchester city although he is a key player that still doesn't justify the fact that Brighton would possibly get a win from Manchester city.

Regardless Manchester city shouldn't and wouldn't take chances with Brighton as they are gradually becoming a strong force aswell after their series of wins they seem to have more confidence in the fact that they can face any team in the premier league. Brighton also have there own little challenge which if put in to consideration will definitely bee an advantage come city over them and very importantly city is playing from home so they definitely wouldn't allow a defeat from Brighton at home it may only end a draw most likely.

I have heard the advice that you should only use money you can afford to lose for gambling. I say that this is more theoretical than practical. Literally no one has money that they can afford to lose. I feel that money for gambling is a matter of opportunity cost. You either use the money for gambling or use it to meet a need. If using money one can afford to lose were practical there will be no need for articles on having a gambling budget or bank roll management. Hey gamblers my question is to you now is, the money you currently plan to use for gambling is it money that you can afford to lose?
The advice is not based on the fact that any one do have a certain amount of money they keep aside to be lost every now and then to gamble, but they the idea no simple a certain amount of money that will not get you so emotionally tied to you stakes such that if it turns out against you, you will find it too difficult to bear the loss.

Realistically there are certain amount of money if we loose to anything be it gambling or something else we tend not to sorrow over it for just too long we can quickly move on as such amount can be tagged insignificant to affecting our emotional and mental well being, but in situations where huge sums probably was supposed to be use for certain is use to gamble, if you eventually loose it then it becomes a problem as you find it really difficult letting go because at that point you have got some emotions attached to it already and you are probably not ready to bear such losses.

If you are afraid of losing your money in a gambling place, never approach gambling, it's very simple. Gambling offers wins, but losses are very common among gamblers. They try to return to the gambling place with the aim of getting back the money they have spent, but what happens is the opposite, their money actually goes back to the casino.

When you want to make money in a place that offers 20% wins and 80% losses, it is very difficult to get out of that place and take home some money, unless you are lucky. One way to prevent your money from running out in gambling places is to immediately stop gambling and start focusing on places that can make money.
It's unfortunate people find it difficult to follow the simple advice of leaving if it's no longer entertaining and the fun has stop, chasing losses has to be the worse way of approaching gambling as this will cause you to loose much more than you would realize if you eventually gets lucky at any point, firstly gambling just with the sole aim of making money will not really make you profitable in gambling.

The fear of loosing money to gambling will not stop you from still loosing the money if you eventually gamble and happen not to be lucky, although it's not all about luck as you also have some part to calculatively predict and hope it turns out in your favour, making money with gambling happens 2 out of every 20 chances so the most ideal solution is when ever you loose you leave it get a job or if you have one already face it fully and occasionally you can go get entertained gambling if you can afford such entertainment.

How will you feel if someone you know or just a friend of a friend walk up to you and ask you to finance them in gambling in exchange for a portion of their winnings? Does this even make any sense?

Because the only place this makes a bit sense is the skills base niche like forex trading or crypto trading, how can gambling/gambler be financed?

Have you heard of such before? What is the end result if you have?

Why would you trust anyone to gamble better than you can when it's all about luck?

Is anyone doing this on here?

Someone explained this to me, and I believe he is already a victim because to me it doesn't make sense, I believe he is been used because he lacks knowledge about gambling, do you think my judgment is wrong?


Be it forex trading or crypto trading they are all a pool of risk you only have to measure your risk appetite, your greed level and your drive for which have led to you funding the person. In as much as funding a gambler doesn't make sense to you there are people out there who have tried it out and end up very profitable from it, in essence it's very possible to profit from funding a gambler and getting a good share of his proceed from the bets he must have placed.

But then if you must engage in such it must be with a skilled person but then you would be ready to keep an open mind as to whatever the outcome turns out to be, you are going to accept it and not throw blames at the gambler as gambling is a 50/50 chances risk but then with experience some persons can turn out luckier than you would be if you had done it yourself. So at times it wouldn't be a bad idea to fund a gambler , it's important to note that's it's not a very ideal decision to take but then out there, there are people who actually take such risk and sometimes they are profitable the other times the loose.
