Quote from: udidrone
On the 2nd week several favorite teams were defeated by opponents Manchester United were defeated by Tottenham Newcastle was defeated by Manchester City and Chelsea defeated by West Ham obviously this is beyond our expectations even though we know that all the teams were defeated while playing away but still this is not a good start each of these teams must evaluate the defense because there are clearly weaknesses there, especially when against a strong team.

I think, Chelsea manager need to work hard to give his players the best tactic to use in this season so that they will be more active like mighty Manchester city that defeated their opponent first match and second match with many goals. It was a surprised match for Chelsea to allowed west Ham united to defeated them 3-1, because Chelsea played well in the first half to made the match ended 1-1 in the first half but West Ham united apply home advantage in the second half that made them to disgrace Chelsea at the end of the match. I think, Manchester city is still standing in a solid ground to lift this premier league title again because they are still on their way to lead the premier league table.
Such a thing is not easy especially if the benchmark is Manchester City.
Chelsea and Poche are still in the transition phase and the adaptation process from the player overhaul that Poche did as a new coach this season.
It would not be a big expectation for Poche and Chelsea to be competitive but on the other hand they need to do something good so that their performance is not the same as last season.

The heavy defeat in yesterday's match really made me not too sure about their performance this season. Hopefully it was just a mistake and Chelsea can prove because if they continue like this then don't be surprised if a change of coach and team reshuffle is carried out every season which makes Chelsea even worse.

Pembangkit Tenaga surya mungkin bisa menjadi solusi sementara, namun hal ini akan mendapatkan permasalahan berbeda pada suhu udara yang akan semakin panas jika pembangkit tenaga surya di terapkan di daerah DKI.
Mungkin lebih baik adalah pembangkit tenaga nuklir bisa menjadi solusi, namun saya kira indonesia masih belum bisa melakukannya.
Yaa.. saya setuju dengan pembangkit listrik tenaga surya karena ini sangat ramah lingkungan dan tidak semua tempat memilki sungai yang cukup besar untuk membangun PLTA. Namun untuk pembangunan pembangkit listrik tenaga surya sepertinya tidak akan cukup untuk memenuhi kebutuhan litstrik DKI Jakarta yang padat penduduk dan ditambah lagi dengan konsdisi cuaca menentu membuat pebangkit listrik tenaga surya menjadi tidak efektif untuk memenuhi kebutuhan listrik DKI Jakarta.

Pembangunan pembangkit litrik tenaga surya memerlukan tempat yang cukup luas dan hal ini tidak sebanding dengan kondisi DKI Jakarta yang padat penduduk. Terkecuali jika atap rumah semua penduduk DKI Jakarta diganti dengan panel, Namun sepertinya setiap warga tidak akan mampu untuk membangun pebangkit listrik tenaga surya karena harga yang cukup mahal dan walaupun disubsidi oleh pemerintah tetap saja untuk saat ini pemerintah DKI Jakarta tidak akan mampu.

I don't know maybe Real Madrid and Barcelona can change roles this season. I mean maybe this time Real Madrid will dominate the La Liga and Barcelona will be out of the title race earlier. This is quite possible if we only consider the current performances. However it is still the beginning of the season on one hand. Honestly I can't be confident about anything until seeing the first half of the season. That would give us a big opinion of how the rest of the season can also be.

For now I'm just enjoying to watch Bellingham. Real Madrid must be very satisfied with bringing him already now.  Smiley
It's too early to say that because if you look at the current conditions, the match in La Liga has only been running for 2 weeks and indirectly this means that there are still many weeks to go through for this season.
Madrid did have a good performance in its last 2 matches on the other hand Barcelona is also still quite good even though the first match did not go well and only a draw was obtained.

We're still going to see a lot of surprises in the end, so I think it's too far away to conclude that the two will turn around at this point.
3184  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Olympic Games, but doping is allowed?! on: August 20, 2023, 07:56:24 PM

Sad thing is that they do testing before and after athletes perform. So they let clean and not clean athletes perform together. Majority of doping scandals happens already when the competition is over, or even when the Olympic games are over. That is why I see no point of not allowing it. It just looks stupid. What is the point of not allowing, when both athletes performs simultaneously. Either make two separate Olympic games, for those who use and who doesnt. But one thing, without doping, Olympic games wont be as bright as now, as interesting to watch as used to, we wont see any new records.

Serenity is important in the game. If they create another Olympic game for dippers it won't make sense like it is a sports because they can start a fight right there as they are not in control of themselves, the substance will have greater control of them. The organizers have a reason that they don't taste participants for drugs until after they have performed and this is to make the suspense of the game real and to show there is dopping rules also. I have seen different Olympic games where the runner up become the winner because the initial winner was disqualified for failing the taste. Having another Olympic games for people that will use drug means the organizers are encouraging the use of drugs and the abuse of it in our daily lives.
I agree with the doping rules you mentioned. These substances have a positive effect if consumed according to the rules, because they increase strength and increase self-confidence, but long-term consumption of these substances can cause damage to the bodies of athletes who consume them. In my opinion, these substances are used by athletes who do not believe in their abilities, so they must first use these substances in order to appear in the Olympics. But as long as they can control what they take, I think it's fine.

And I'm also sure that there are still many athletes who are confident and very confident without doping. They prefer to keep practicing in order to get strong physical fitness and endurance.

Victory is a temptation. When I win, sometimes it makes us lose control which causes us to continue to chase victory for the second time and continue to increase the number of bets significantly which in the end makes us lose. Which at first we were lucky to be stupefied.
then this is where good self-control is needed so that we can benefit from gambling and can minimize losses. It's better if you get a big win in gambling, to immediately stop the gambling activities that you are doing and withdraw all the profits you get to temporarily enjoy the winnings you get or the money is used for things that are more useful than you have to spend it back in gambling ,

Many gamblers also experience this that's what I said gambling addiction doesn't only come from losing but winning frequently can also lead to addition. Victory bring more temptation to continue gambling and if you don't discipline yourself you'll get addicted easily.

After winning a big win, you can continue gambling but you should have a budget that you won't exceed no matter what happens. If you continue winning that's good but when you lose don't chase after the losses or you'll end up losing more than you previously lost.

Profits gotten from gambling should be invested in other things that won't need you praying to be lucky for you to get profits. You can take your win and invest in Bitcoin for a long term investment that you won't be in a hurry to sell, been very careful is needed while gambling.
A pretty good and interesting solution to try. And it is true that if we use the money from gambling wins to make long-term investments in bitcoins this will prevent us from spending it back on gambling.

If only we could always do that. investing every win in gambling, maybe our savings in the form of bitcoin investments are quite a lot.
Hopefully we can be more careful and wiser in managing finances when we win in gambling and beyond that.

It will indeed be difficult for someone to win and we should prevent more losses because that way, we can play gambling in a relaxed and calm manner and stop gambling on time.
I call it very difficult not to be carried away by gambling, but if you have strong determination and can respect the decisions that have been made, you have to play normally, gamble only when you have extra money and when you have free time / holidays. And I agree with your opinion, "if we can't win the game, then at least we have to be able to minimize losses"

Snip
I agree with you, even in my country animal fighting is quite common in some places, and there used to be seasonal competitions for those animals owners in periods such as during salar or any other festive period when observers will gather to bet on those animals the way the observers use to make their bet is to use their biggest analysis tool to determine which animal to bet on their use the physical health of the animal to use their ability to win the fight, I have seen dog fight, horse races, and ram fights, but I have not seen cock fight before but I am sure that it can happen in Some other parts of my country since our government did ban animal fights.

My country is still far from having an animal law so owners of those animals can do whatever they wish without being checked.
In addition, cockfighting and other types of fighting are types of gambling that cannot be separated from the culture of society itself.

and if it is closely related to culture then this will be difficult to separate from people's lives and it will also be difficult if the government has to ban these activities because there will be a lot of rejection from the people who preserve this culture. Likewise with what happened in my country where the government allows cockfighting in certain areas because it is part of a culture that has existed for a long time.

I think animal fights are common. because fighting is the instinct of these animals. And this culture can be illegal because there is money at stake in it. Apart from those who think that cockfighting is prohibited because it hurts animals or other reasons.

In this lottery game I don't have much experience on the game but I have seen many people who is gambling on this kind of gambling, but I know that the chances of winning gambling is higher either the gambles is simple or not, i know very well that theirs no gambling platform or kind of game that can be underrated, their is one time I was studying this gambling game called lottery but I was unable to understand it properly, I don't if the Will be any link to study this lottery kind of gambling, I want to experience the method of this gambling
When betting on lottery then it doesnt really need up that needing much knowledge on how to bet with it and speaking about odds then we do know that it is really having lesser compared into

those traditional gambling games. You wont really be needing to be that technical or knowing in depth about lotteries since you would really be just simply picking off some numbers and just
waiting for the draw to know the winning number combination which we know that the more number we do have the lesser odds we do able to win up. We've seen lotteries and sweepstakes
on our local on which the amount are really that life changing but the odds and chances are really that close to impossible.

Yeah, betting in the lottery is simply picking numbers and submitting to the ticket counter, then the ticket counter generates and reports your bets to the machine to save it for future reference.  There is nothing much to do after choosing the numbers to bet than waiting and paying for the entry ticket.

I have been playing lottery gambling for quite a long time. Indeed, in this gambling the chances of winning are very low, but the prizes offered in this gambling are quite tempting, it can be many times the amount we risk to buy lottery tickets. In this gambling we do two ways to win the lottery. First, rely on luck by continuing to put the same numbers in every draw continuously and. Second, we can rely on knowledge and ability to analyze the possible numbers that will come out.

I am never a fan of lottery gambling.  I never bought a single lottery ticket in my life although I watched my parents trying their luck on the national lottery, I am never attracted to it since I think that it is a waste of money since the chance of winning is very low.  I think that it is better to spend the money elsewhere than give it away to the gaming corporation.

Quote from: serjent05
So in gambling no matter where it is what it is, we should always gamble responsibly and moderate ourselves from spending too much.

indeed we need to do that and we always pay attention to it, but in my personal opinion, lottery gambling is the easiest type of gambling to control because besides there is a time limit from when we place bets until the lottery results are announced, in this gambling my expenses can be more regular which very different. since I played slot gambling. In slot gambling I can spend 10 dollars in one game, but in lottery gambling I can use the 10 dollars to participate in the lottery several times.

For those who have self-control yes, it is easier to control but I found several people spending almost all their earnings buying lottery tickets and then their will borrow funds for their basic needs, and even asking to credit canned foods from the store because they are lacking of fund due to overspending to buy lottery tickets.
There are types of games, in gambling including lottery gambling. I believe everyone has their own preference and comfort in choosing games. Even though parents seem to dominate lottery gambling, it doesn't mean that other people can't participate if they are interested.

It is important to note that addiction can be a risk in any form of gambling including lottery games. However, I found that controlling oneself in lottery gambling is relatively easier because most people understand that the chances of winning are very low. It is unwise to spend a certain amount of money on tickets, with low chances of winning. As for those who are addicted to lottery gambling, this is because in lottery gambling they focus on getting wins by continuing to buy as many tickets as possible. Because there is no other focus in lottery gambling besides winning the lottery and luck.
3188  Economy / Gambling / Re: No bet is a waste on: August 20, 2023, 04:53:05 PM
In gambling, winning is completely influenced by luck, but for sports betting it depends on the outcome of the match we choose.
There are quite a lot of betting options in sports betting and it can make it easier for gamblers to get Odds which are the most profitable and have the most potential to win.
Sports betting really requires extensive knowledge and insight to make predictions, but there are still many who bet without making predictions by analyzing but only using feelings or beliefs.
Betting only focused on one choice is not a good thing to keep doing because there are many unexpected things that we don't want to happen often.
It is true that in getting victory, it depends on the luck we have and if we are not lucky, we will lose and it has happened many times. But the situation may be different if we place bets on sports betting because apart from luck, we also have to be able to analyze the teams that will compete. And if you can analyze it well, you have a bigger chance of winning and if it's coupled with luck, you will definitely win. But it's not easy to win a game, especially if we casually place bets on sports we don't know very well and the chances of winning won't be as big as if we bet on sports we know. And if we lose at sports betting or casino games, it's not a wasted bet because we already planned to gamble.
Here we only need to distinguish and look at the several types of gambling games that we will play. Because there really are several types of gambling that rely entirely on luck such as slots and lotteries. And there are also gambling games that really have to rely on knowledge and ability and what you said is soccer betting where information and the level of analytical ability greatly affect the success rate of winning the bet.

But I also can't blame those who play by relying solely on luck in every type of gambling game they play. Because it is their right and their belief and also it is their way to enjoy gambling.
But it's a good idea before determining the type of gambling game to be played to consider first about how much you can win the game and have you understood the game rules. This needs to be done to minimize losses arising from reckless gambling activities.

Although i think all gambling games including sports betting are luck based and knowledge plays a very little part but still if we agree with you, still I will say that if we lose any game or bet, it is a lost bet. You may call it a waste bet too where our money is wasted.

Unless you had fun while gambling, I would consider lost bets as a waste of time and money. It will also make your emotions sad upon every loss. The only way to get rid of this is to do responsible gambling with money management. This is the only way where we will be in net profit from gambling and hence we will conclude things like "No bet is a waste"
In the end it all boils down to self-control on how to play gambling responsibly and manage good money.

And I agree with you that "There are no wasted bets." When a person is able to control himself to play responsibly, because many of them are gambling players who prioritize the gambling activities they carry out compared to the responsibilities they carry, such as ; family or work.

And likewise with money management which is really needed, because many of them are gambling players who make gambling a top priority where they are willing to spend their money to play gambling which is even worse they sell assets and borrow to do gambling.

I hope that we can all be more responsible when gambling and practice good financial management. Hopefully we are all included in the group of people who play gambling wisely.
3189  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: August 20, 2023, 11:52:36 AM
I still regret that Saudi Arabia did not bring Messi into their team. We cannot continue to witness the rivalry between the two legends. Let's say they try to convince Messi. Then everyone will have a different view of their league, which is a big step for them. When Messi won the World Cup, Maybe money or titles were no longer essential to him.
On social networking sites, I often read exciting articles. Saudi money can buy all the former top stars. But there's only one World Cup winner that can't be purchased: Lionel Messi.
Money cannot entice every player to join the Saudi team. Kylian Mbappe rejected bids from Saudi, because there's alot he will achieved in Europe. Leo Messi turned down offers from Saudi Arabia because he felt it would be an unwise move, instead accepted offers from Inter Miami, who were struggling in their league. In accordance with Leo Messi's statistics, he had a significant impact on the club. Leo Messi is the undisputed GOAT; he put an end to the GOAT conversation when Argentina won the World Cup in 2022. Presently he's doing exceptionally brilliant in his new club and had help them lifts their first ever league trophy.
It's really about your own decisions and desires.
Mbappe realizes that he can get other luxuries especially in terms of popularity if he stays in European competition so he will not take the risk of being in an Arab clan even though the money is very large but the popularity is slightly reduced.

But on the other hand, there are not a few players who don't really care about it because of the lure of big money because their conditions may have reached the golden era or their performance will not develop rapidly in Europe so they look for greater opportunities.
Mbappe has the opportunity for popularity and extraordinary players in Europe and money in Arabia when he chooses the opportunity to become one of the players recognized by the world then his decision to reject the Arab club is very good.

Xavi was very confident that he can bringing Barcelona to earn 3 points from Cadiz although in the first match Barcelona get unsatisfactory results because they only can playing draw from Getafe but Xavi said it will have no affect for the performance of Barcelona later but their opponent also in the good shape because in the first match Cadiz was successfully to overcomes Alaves with slim score 1-0

Cadiz indeed is not strong team and they also had poor records while met Barcelona but i think Barcelona have to be careful because sometimes Cadiz can able to performing well and make big team to get in trouble especially i have seen the performance of Barcelona main striker Lewandowski still haven't reach to his top performance so Barcelona should be more focus for this match especially their rival Real Madrid performance is more better than them so Barcelona shouldn't be losing points anymore if they want to pursuing Real Madrid

Well there should be no problems in securing a convincing victory tonight at home for Barcelona.They are a strong team and I think the fact that they did not won the first game was because of their players becoming somewhat self complacent and underestimating their opponents.I am sure now that they see the results of what happened next and that Real Madrid is moving away,all Barcelona players I am sure now will come down in the field with a burning desire to win the game and I think they will win it with a big result,something along 3-0 or more goals scored.
Their opponent is Cadiz and of course their chances are very big in this match, it's just that seeing from their performance in this first match a little makes me not want to take too much risk in betting. Although I know they are likely to win but in this case we are also only speculating with the statistics they have.

Currently, Barcelona have to play without Raphinha who received a red card earlier. I'm quite curious about what Xavi will do here whether to maximize De Jong in this position or try to change some schemes in his formation because some players like Gavi and Ansu Pati can also still be maximized well.

Now officially a Fulham sticker, Aleksandar Mitrovic has moved to the Saudi Pro League with Al-Hilal from Fulham with a 3-year contract worth €52 million.
The 28-year-old Serbia striker Aleksandra Mitrovic will join the Al-Hilal attack after the signing of Neymar Jr. on Thursday. Mitrovic will become Al-Hilal's third Premier League signing this summer, following Chelsea defender Kalidou Koulibaly and Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Ruben Neves.

Something like this was bound to happen sooner or later.
Fulham previously rejected an offer for Mitrovic because his clause wasn't what they wanted, but when it comes to money, it's not a problem for Arab clubs and from the start I felt that it was only a matter of time to see Mitrovic go to the Saudi Professional League.

With this, more and more European quality players who are actually still quite good are. Last season Mitrovic played very well and with this now in such a short space of time Fulham will have to look at options because I think this will be a big loss for them in terms of attack.

Time after time I can say Leverkusen is getting progress and they can even have better performance with their coach Xabi Alonso if they could buy some players in this transfer window to improve their team and invest some money while they could not and hire many players but I still think Xabi Alonso can be the reason for them to even get the ticket for champions league in the next of season for another time.
Leverkusen made a good job winning vs Leipzig which started their season by defeating Bayern in SuperCup with 3 goals to 0! Now they lost 2 - 3 vs Leverkusen.
For the other top teams that played today, there is Dortmund, Freiburg and Wolfsburg that won their matches. For M'Gladbach they failed to get more than 1 point vs Augsburg. M'Gladbach doesn't seem willing to improve.
I'm sure Xabi Alonso will make Leverkusen appear stronger this season. The first match this season, where Leverkusen won against Leipzig, made their run look quite perfect in the first game.

I think Leverkusen will be able to provide strong competition for other big teams like Bayern Munich and Dortmund. This victory was also warmly welcomed by Xabi Alonso because he considered that his foster children performed as he expected, namely to win 3 points
Leverkusen managed to reduce Leipzig's strength in this match and this certainly makes me a little optimistic that Leverkusen can achieve something better in the Xabi era for the second season.
There were some interesting things in this match such as when we saw how the fast counter-attacks that seemed to be Xabi's mainstay made Leipzig quite troubled.
On the other hand, the performance of the players and their cooperation was very good in this match.

For Leipzig, they always seem to struggle to anticipate and hold the cutbacks made by Leverkusen, but what attracts attention remains Dani Oleh seems to be one of the cornerstones for Leipzig this season even though in yesterday's match they lost but they also performed quite well.

About Haaland in the Champions League, I can say that he has been quite impressive in this tournament also. He scored so many goals here last season. Maybe he couldn't make much impact on the semi finals and the finale but I can't overlook his overall effort just because of that.

Manchester City are playing great as a team. They don't rely on only one player such as Haaland. The semi finals and the finale were great examples for that. It is the truth that Haaland is an important piece of the puzzle. But Guardiola has a system working like a clockwork now. Even when Haaland isn't in-form the rest of the players can make up for that.
I just know every player in Manchester City has a role to play, Manchester City does not really rely on any player for victory to take place, I think this is one the secret for success in winning trophies. Haaland played major role last season for Manchester City in premier league and in Champions league though in the semi finals and finals game he could not score goal for Manchester city because he was thoroughly marked by the opponent playing against Manchester City because he was a threat to them.
It is true that in important matches such as the semifinals or the Champions League final last season, Erling Haaland seemed to disappear on the field and his role as the pillar of the team at that time was immediately replaced by other Manchester City players who had freer opportunities to score goals. I don't think it's a problem as long as the team can use every player available and actually I'm quite annoyed because Pep Guardiola very rarely changes his players in the second half. So when they should have had the opportunity to score goals through supersub players, they still relied on the players who were there from the early minutes.

I see many people who say Erling Haaland disappear in the field like you say, because they think Haaland is not suitable for the games against stronger teams and that's why people think Haaland is just a player who can have good performances against the teams with a weak defending system, while he is not because other teams usually focus on Haaland to make this player stop.  
I have different thoughts in this case, when Haaland's movement is shut down by several marking players it does not mean he is not suitable to play with a big club, it's just that in this match Howe realized that if Haaland was left alone then Newcastle would face a lot of problems so Howe did some special guarding to Haaland so that every pass made to Haaland could be cut from the start.

His space was narrowed and his movements were limited which is why he could not perform more like before.
It doesn't mean he's bad because he still plays well, it's just that the marking done by Newcastle players is better which makes him frustrated in this match.
3194  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: August 20, 2023, 07:45:11 AM
I think we saw how good Newcastle United are in this match. I can say that they played a better match against Manchester City than I expected. Newcastle lost 3 points in this match and it's sad for them of course but losing by Manchester City wouldn't be a big deal because right now they are the team with the biggest title contender in the Premier League.
Etihad Stadium is turning into a fortresses. This Man City squad is on fire, picking up right where they stopped last season. Despite missing several key players, Manchester City keeps pushing forward. Pep's team is determined to defend its title. I have to admit, Newcastle did a good job by only conceding one goal against City. Not everyone gets the opportunity as they've held off the treble winners.
Newcastle is still losing against city even with a small margin. Gvardiol, kovacic and fooden have been showing impressive performances. Haaland was not able exploring the chance of scoring more goals without KDB. The major problem is KDB was always become the player that was supplying a good pass for haaland. Haaland's performance is quite inconsistent at this moment. My applause was going for alvarez. There are two different things between haaland and alvarez. Haaland is good at finishing, but alvarez has more than it.
Alvarez has a very good dribbling success compared with haaland and he could also score the goal from various sides. He is such an underrated striker at this moment.
I must be honest if alvarez can become a key player for manchester city this season. His performance is always growing even better than before.

I am surprised at Newcastle only one shot on goal during the whole game as they came here from a crushing victory 5-1 against Everton in the first game of the season.Maybe Newcastle tried to defend and to get one point here as they knew they were playing against the strongest team in the Premier League while Manchester City on the other hand did their game and won 1-0,the important for them were the three points which they got and are now at the top of the table.
I think Haaland needs a bit more games to be in full power when it comes to scoring goals,we will see him score a lot of them throughout the tournament.
IMO this is still a fairness where it must be difficult to face Manchester City even with Newcastle's previous positive record because Manchester City is still much better in terms of players and games.
If you look at Manchester City's statistics in this match, they can only get 4 on target from 14 shots they took.

I quite like the flexibility of the City players where Rodri and Kovacic are moved as deeper midfielders to help the defense and the other 3 Grealish, Alvarez and Foden are used as helpers for attacks so that Haaland can be free in creating opportunities and goals, Manchester City has a complex squad even though some of them cannot play because of problems such as what happened to KDB but with a difference that is not too far between core and reserve players, Manchester City remains free in making formations and schemes that will be carried out in 1 match.

In the French Soccer League Toulouse vs PSG two-team match, many games were played before halftime. However, neither team could score a goal before halftime. The players of both teams tried hard to score. However, after halftime, the players of both teams scored 1 goal each. In the match  Neither team could win. After watching the PSG team play I thought maybe PSG team will play well and win the match but due to their poor performance they did not win the match they drew and shared the points.
Their finishing was poor and now their attack seems to have nothing to show for it which makes it worse.
Last season, especially at the start of the season, Neymar or Messi were always the initiators in attack who could open up space for chances and even goals. At the moment there is still no one who can really replace that role. Their schemes in attack and possession are good we can't deny that fact but it's also not very useful if their finishing is so poor.

This match PSG created 16 shots and only 3 were on target and 1 goal (penalty) which indirectly does not really reflect PSG as a strong club.

The first leg of the Play Off is at Rangers which of course this will give them an advantage because they play home and with the advantage of this militant fan will put more pressure on PSV.

On the other hand, PSV have had a good goal productivity so far in the previous qualifying phase and this will be a good capital only I still feel that they will still play a little safe to prepare the second leg well.
A difficult match to predict, both of team still have a chance whether it's Rangers or PSV. You are right that in the first leg PSV might be have a lot of pressure because they will be playing away from home, but on the other side they also have to take their revenge because the previous season they were beaten by Rangers. Considering that PSV has been defeated before, so yes, they seem to be playing it safe in this first leg.
Revenge does not have to be all out for the first leg match because they can still maximize in the second leg later, moreover by looking at the productivity of the goals they made in the previous round, this is an added value for PSV.
Ranger we know that sometimes they give surprises and in the last 2 seasons they have always been in a pretty good position in European league competitions even though in the Champions League they still haven't shown good things but they will definitely do many ways to get out of the group phase.
I'm pretty sure in the first leg they will go all out at home because the support of supporters can make PSV mentally shaky and this is an option for PSV whether they will try to keep up or survive and retaliate in leg 2 later.

seruput kopimu tuangkan ispirasimu - kata-kata seorang pecandu kopi sejati.
Dengan khasiatnya yang memberi energi dan kemampuan untuk meningkatkan fokus, kopi seringkali menjadi minuman pilihan untuk bersosialisasi dan bercakap-cakap. Bagi mereka yang mencari ketenangan jiwa, kopi menawarkan rasa tenang yang dapat membantu mengoptimalkan kinerja kognitif dan memungkinkan artikulasi ide dan opini yang lebih jelas. Ini semua berkat kandungan kafein yang ada pada minuman kesayangan ini.


konsumsi kopi secara tidak teratur dapat memberikan efek negatif pada tubuh. Pola tidur yang tidak teratur bisa saja muncul saat mengkonsumsi kopi guna mengurangi rasa kantuk dan juga jika diminum secara berlebihan dapat menurunkan nafsu makan. Selain itu, minum kopi secara tidak teratur tanpa menjaga jadwal makan yang standar dapat menyebabkan sakit perut karena tingginya kadar kafein yang menyebabkan peningkatan asam lambung. Oleh karena itu, kopi dapat menimbulkan efek buruk jika tidak dikonsumsi dalam jumlah sedang.
Secangkir kopi dapat memberikan banyak kemanfaatan tetapi anda juga harus tetap memperhatikan sisi negatifnya.

In gambling, winning is completely influenced by luck, but for sports betting it depends on the outcome of the match we choose.
There are quite a lot of betting options in sports betting and it can make it easier for gamblers to get Odds which are the most profitable and have the most potential to win.
Sports betting really requires extensive knowledge and insight to make predictions, but there are still many who bet without making predictions by analyzing but only using feelings or beliefs.
Betting only focused on one choice is not a good thing to keep doing because there are many unexpected things that we don't want to happen often.
It is true that in getting victory, it depends on the luck we have and if we are not lucky, we will lose and it has happened many times. But the situation may be different if we place bets on sports betting because apart from luck, we also have to be able to analyze the teams that will compete. And if you can analyze it well, you have a bigger chance of winning and if it's coupled with luck, you will definitely win. But it's not easy to win a game, especially if we casually place bets on sports we don't know very well and the chances of winning won't be as big as if we bet on sports we know. And if we lose at sports betting or casino games, it's not a wasted bet because we already planned to gamble.
Here we only need to distinguish and look at the several types of gambling games that we will play. Because there really are several types of gambling that rely entirely on luck such as slots and lotteries. And there are also gambling games that really have to rely on knowledge and ability and what you said is soccer betting where information and the level of analytical ability greatly affect the success rate of winning the bet.

But I also can't blame those who play by relying solely on luck in every type of gambling game they play. Because it is their right and their belief and also it is their way to enjoy gambling.
But it's a good idea before determining the type of gambling game to be played to consider first about how much you can win the game and have you understood the game rules. This needs to be done to minimize losses arising from reckless gambling activities.

So in gambling no matter where it is what it is, we should always gamble responsibly and moderate ourselves from spending too much.

indeed we need to do that and we always pay attention to it, but in my personal opinion, lottery gambling is the easiest type of gambling to control because besides there is a time limit from when we place bets until the lottery results are announced, in this gambling my expenses can be more regular which very different. since I played slot gambling. In slot gambling I can spend 10 dollars in one game, but in lottery gambling I can use the 10 dollars to participate in the lottery several times.

That's the beauty of this game: the chances to make a betting spree are reduced due to the specific nature of the lottery. On one hand, it is not an instant game, so you have to wait until the scrutiny is done before making a new bet. On the other hand, although other games like football and different sports aren't instant either, matches are exciting for the fans, which can make them bet more and/or more often, but with lotteries there is little to no excitation. So, IMO, it is a good game to play "with head" instead of more impulse driven which is what many other games encourage.
Yes, the excitement in this game is almost non-existent, because apart from the small amount of the bet, the chance to win is also very small and the time limit is so long that it makes some people bored to wait.
Passion in the lottery game can only be felt during the seconds when the numbers are announced to be announced in the lottery. However, in my opinion, the lottery game can be enjoyed by all walks of life, and whether rich or poor, all of them can take part in this type of gambling.

In this lottery game I don't have much experience on the game but I have seen many people who is gambling on this kind of gambling, but I know that the chances of winning gambling is higher either the gambles is simple or not, i know very well that theirs no gambling platform or kind of game that can be underrated, their is one time I was studying this gambling game called lottery but I was unable to understand it properly, I don't if the Will be any link to study this lottery kind of gambling, I want to experience the method of this gambling

I don't know if we should even categorize lottery as gambling because it doesn't seems like gambling to me, though we believe that lottery are in categories and we have them by their requirements according to the issuer for this offer, in lottery, we have free offers and that of paid offers for you to apply for one depending on the source, both government and non governmental organizations make this offer and it's believed not to be gambling even though chances for winning are very small.
As long as there is money at stake in it, in my opinion, lottery is a type of gambling, even though the opportunity and the number of bets are small.

It's okay for people to spend 10 dollars to buy a lottery ticket, even they can do it every week. And because there is a time limit until the lottery results are announced, they can be disciplined about spending the 10 dollars even though they don't know when they can win it. Whether it's worth it or not depends on them because they have their own calculations and have allocated a certain amount of funds to buy the lottery ticket. Apart from that, by buying this routine once a week, they can still hope that one day they will win the jackpot, and this has been proven by several people who are consistent in buying lottery tickets.
The most tickets I've ever bought in a lottery game, I bought 20 lottery tickets and the total price was less than 2 dollars. But unfortunately none of the tickets match the announced results. and now I survive by only placing 3 tickets in one game. The big win I ever got from the lottery made me want to keep buying lottery tickets.

Obviously Gambling should be play with care. For gambling need proper planing and mental refresh and also proper statistics then can be possible profited from gambling. So we need more Learn about gambling. When a player will more careful about gambling then there will huge possibility to gain from gambling. Who are profited from gambling they are clear Planner there has no doubt. Gambling is not too much easy matter for good result from gambling we have to good planner then we will able to gain from gambling. So i am really agree will this word "gambling should be play with care".
Proper planning is fine but actually learning about gambling usually never ends after many experienced people are at risk. While certain games such as poker may require skill to understand, no matter how skilled you are, luck is always the deciding factor when gambling. The random shuffle of cards or the lucky symbol that appears on a slot machine is all about luck and there is no way to beat luck. With proper planning setting aside a certain amount of money to bet every day and making sure you don't go over it.
In gambling and also in poker it will need more time to enhance your skills and knowledge about that specific game so you need to study it first in order to win the game. But when we play and loss the game then still we have benefits cause we will learn from our mistakes especially in the game which you can play and use your mind to facilitates  the game.
For me personally, in gambling losing is learning and winning is temptation.

Defeat is learning. For me, when I lose, especially in a row, it doesn't mean I'm out of luck. It's just that this is because my skills and knowledge in gambling are still lacking and I push myself too hard even though I have lost in the previous game which in the end will only deepen my losses. So this is a lesson for me to further improve the quality of the gambling that I have, to control the gambling activities that are carried out and to rearrange my finances by consistently applying limits in every game that is carried out to minimize losses.

Victory is a temptation. When I win, sometimes it makes us lose control which causes us to continue to chase victory for the second time and continue to increase the number of bets significantly which in the end makes us lose. Which at first we were lucky to be stupefied.
then this is where good self-control is needed so that we can benefit from gambling and can minimize losses. It's better if you get a big win in gambling, to immediately stop the gambling activities that you are doing and withdraw all the profits you get to temporarily enjoy the winnings you get or the money is used for things that are more useful than you have to spend it back in gambling ,
