341  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling mistake repeated by the gamblers on: March 31, 2024, 07:50:50 AM
Chasing losses and not being able to stop and withdrawing money when you get a profit because you think it's a lucky day and thoughts like this are the result of not being able to control yourself so you are dominated by greed.
Unfortunately, many gamblers repeat this mistake, it could be because they are gambling with money that they cannot afford to lose, so they are always trying to get back what they have lost, and when they win, they are not satisfied because after calculating it, it is not comparable to what they have lost, even though it is difficult it's even impossible to recover what you've lost in gambling, even if you can, it's just because you're lucky.
I agree with you, indeed it happens because there is no good self-control. In the absence of good self-control, gambling is unlikely to be stopped, because in my opinion the absence of self-control is tantamount to unclear thinking and this unclear thinking will encourage us to continue gambling because most likely unclear thinking is only thinking about winning, and if the gambling that is done cannot be stopped, maybe what will happen is greed.
The fact is that gamblers like this I think they are not prepared for the money they will lose, because with gambling it is clear that the final possibility that will occur is defeat but that they cannot accept, as a result they cannot stop gambling because they want to recover the money they have lost by gambling that ends up disappointing.

Well, that's not what we often experience from gambling. I believe what we are discussing in this post is a cycle that we often experience in every gambling session. Even though we have good self-control, it is difficult for us to stop our inherent human nature. yeah, greed, curiosity, the desire to win again and again, have become part of us. especially, when it comes to gambling that involves money as a means of betting. I'm sure most of us have had the same experience, even though we actually have the idea of ​​self-control.

The problem is, in practice it's not as easy as we discussed in this post. For me, it all depends on the situation and conditions when we carry out the betting session, the results of which will determine how we respond to gambling at that time. continue, stop or rest for a moment. Ego, feelings, anger will be involved when we lose, let alone in a row. moreover, in winning conditions. well, so how should it be. I don't have an answer to that. but the point is, it all depends on us. where awareness, responsibility, and knowing one's limits will be tested, which ultimately gives rise to awareness of good self-control. Even that is not easy in practice, what is important to remember and apply is. be aware of the limits of our abilities, and that requires all variables to achieve what is called self-control. well, for me it's like that.

In fact, this is none of your business at all. however, you do not have the right to do so or tell the family of a friend who is addicted. however, this is related to issues of empathy and morals. unless your friend asks for help and a solution to solve the problem. If it were me, I would look, review and pay attention first before doing anything, including giving advice to my friends. At least if it has exceeded the limit, then I will try to approach it in a persuasive way. First identify the core problem, what makes my friend addicted.

Remember, in each case a person has a different initial root problem, regardless of excessive gambling activity. My job is just to give advice. that is, if he is a close friend of mine. It's important to know, not everyone will accept our advice even though it is for their own good. but if circumstances force me, especially if I know my friend's family well enough, maybe I will think about it and consider telling them. but the main point is not like that, yes the family can help someone's family get rid of their addiction, but it's not as simple as what we discussed.
The problem is with the gambler, is he willing to be given help? If yes, it requires strong determination and intention. even then, there are many who have to go through various methods to cure it. so, the point is not as simple as what we discuss in actual practice.

Al Shabab vs Al Hilal.

Well, this match initially seemed like it would be difficult for Al Shabab to equalize, which in fact Al Hilal was leading 1-4. In this match, the home team put up quite a fight towards Al Hilal in the second half, before Al Shabab took the lead in the 3rd minute with a quick goal from Musab Fabd Aljuwary. However, the squad coached by Jorge Jesus was able to turn the situation around to their advantage, Al Hilal opened the opportunity in the 20th minute through the penalty spot. Then, Mitrovic scored his second goal again in the 27th minute. Unfortunately, he had to be pulled out and replaced by Al-Shehri because he allegedly had a problem that led to injury. However, Al Hilal still did not relax their game. Before the end of the first half, Segej Savic added to his team's lead. Not wanting to lose, Al Dawsari also contributed one goal in this match. now the temporary position is with a score of 3-4, a victory for Al Hilal. The match still left enough time for both teams to score goals for their teams. However, it seems that it will be very difficult to overthrow Al Hilal which is currently in a positive trend. well, let's just wait for this match to end.

At the same time, Al Nassr defeated Al Tae with a score of 4-1. The match is not over yet, and Ronaldo contributed two goals in this match, it does not rule out the possibility that Ronaldo will be able to add to his tally of goals. Thus, Ronaldo can keep his distance from Mitrovic in terms of scoring goals. but at least for this match, both Mitrovic and Ronaldo scored two goals. the difference is, Mitrovic was pulled out and replaced by another player. Al Hilal's standings remain safe, especially if they are able to finish this match with a win. well, it seems Al Hilal is getting closer to the Saudi Pro League trophy.

I was surprised to see Bayern Leverkusen struggle to beat Hoffenheim in the league, even though they were at home. Late goals from Andrich and Schick were enough to give Bayern Leverkusen the needed three points against Hoffenheim. With this 2-1 home win, Bayern Leverkusen is still leading Bayern Munich by 10 points in the Bundesliga table. 

Bayer Leverkusen conceded first in the 33rd minute due to a goal from Maximilian Beire, a Hoffenheim player. even though Levekusen actually had lots of chances, they were unable to convert them into equalizers. After 88 minutes, Robert Andrich opened the goal to equalize. in the 90+1 minute, Patrik Schick was the winner for Xabi Alonso's squad. well, Leverkusen was able to comeback and increase the points gap from Bayern Munich who lost to Borussia Dortmund. Overall, Xabi Alonso's squad played well and controlled the game. even though they were behind at first, they were able to finish this match very well. According to my estimation in the previous post, Leverkusen will score two goals against Hoffenheim.

Now Xabi Alonso is a little calmer, because they are just a little bit away from breaking Bayern Munich's dominance. Xabi Alonso's team only needs to win a few matches, so they are entitled to the trophy in this competition.
Meanwhile, Bayern had no choice but to focus on the Champions League match after losing to Dortmund.
Well, it looks like Xabi can focus more on the Europa League competition after his team is 13 points ahead of Bayern. Meanwhile, Bayern has no choice but to beat Arsenal in the quarters of the Champions League.

When Arsenal managed to qualify it meant they could not be underestimated, for whatever reason Bayern Munich also had to be careful, after all both teams could fight each other 50:50 both of them were equally strong. I will not take it lightly, that the conditions of each team are different and in the hands of different coaches too. For this reason the meeting between the two is not just about experience in the UCL anymore but a battle over which coach tactics are effective. I think Arsenal can still beat Bayern Munich and that has huge potential. Bayern Munich itself now relies on Kane or Sane, while Arsenal strength is more evenly distributed, the same as Manchester City. Each line of Arsenal players is quite solid.


Well, I agree with what you said for the two teams that will compete in the quarter-finals later. The first leg match was held at the Emirates Stadium, which Arsenal definitely had the advantage of playing in front of their own public. referring to the temporary betting options, Arsenal is more favored. which means, Arteta's squad has a chance to overthrow Bayern regardless of the most experienced team in this match. but rather, which team is better prepared to fight with its best performance. Although it cannot be denied, mental problems can be an obstacle for the Gunners' young troops. However, that doesn't mean the most experienced team will always win the match.

As you said, we agree with that. As for Bayern Munich, Thomas Tuchel's team cannot underestimate the home team. Moreover, Bayern's performance is also a bit of a concern with several players suffering injuries. As proven, Bayern collapsed at the Allianz Arena when hosting the match against Dortmund a few hours ago. If Dortmund is able to overthrow Bayern, of course Arsenal also has the same chance. Moreover, if Bayern is not strengthened by all the core players. plus, their main goalkeeper. but likewise with Bayern Munich, Thomas Tuchel's team will not let Arsenal win the first leg easily. What is certain is that Tuchel will plan a strategy to face Arsenal in the quarter-finals. So, to find out more, let's follow and wait for the Champions League competition to start again.

There is a really good progress for Roma lately. That's a fact. De Rossi has really started to change something in the way this team play. But Milan is a really big obstacle ahead. They are very accustomed to playing against Milan. However they haven't played against them under De Rossi's control yet. I'm wondering if things will change positively.

De Rossi has led his team to win 9 of 13 matches in various competitions with AS Roma, two draws, two defeats. De Rossi's first defeat in Serie A, when his team hosted Inter Milan with 2-4. Another defeat, when Roma visited England against Brighton in the Europa League. Even then, previously Roma had won on aggregate with 4 goals. At least under De Rossi's tutelage, Roma experienced an increase in performance. In fact, they are now ranked 5th in the Serie A standings, 3 points different from Bologna. In the Europa League competition, Roma was able to get rid of Feyenoord and had the right to qualify for the quarter-finals phase.

Meanwhile, Milan is not a team that is easily defeated by the team coached by De Rossi's squad. However, this match looks like it will feature exciting betting. especially if we refer to the betting exchange, referring to the Asian Handicap Betting option, Asian odds with 0:1/2. meaning, Milan is not that superior. based on the 1×2 option, Milan with odds @2.09, while Roma with odds @3.55. well, this match is quite interesting even though Milan is the favorite to win this match. However, football is unique and we cannot predict the final result before the match takes place.

Metz vs Monaco

Today i have seen for squad conditions for Monaco and apparently they will lost some players just like Denis Zakaria who got suspension and probably he will be absense in the next 3 matches because he was received a red card when Monaco playing draw against Lorient besides him Monaco defender Guillermo Maripan will be doubtful to play but some of key players such as Wissam Ben Yedder and Takumi Minamino will be available today and i have predict this match previously and i said Monaco will going to win this match and actually after Lille win from Lens then win result is mandatory for Monaco to taking over 3rd place and obviously  Monaco can able to do that today

Lyon vs Reims

For today match i didn't see any key players from Lyon who got injured and seem all of Lyon players will be available today and in the good fitness especially their captain Alexandre Lacazette that last week he was return from his injured and scores goals and other players such as Nemanja Matic and Lyon youngster Rayan Cherki in the good fitness too and ready to play and Lyon in the full of motivation want to extended their winning streak at Ligue and obviously if we see from Lyon recent condition they can able to do that and Lyon win has good odds @1.94

Even though several Monaco players had to be absent due to injury and one of them was suspended, Monaco was still much more favored than the home team. Based on the betting market, Manaco is far superior to Metz in the meeting between these two teams. Apart from that, it seems that Monaco can use the two system options that will be implemented by Aldolf Hutter. Manaco could have played a little safer with a 4-4-3 pattern, or continued to play offensively with a 4-2-3-1 pattern. The problem is, Metz also has injured players who are also in the relegation zone. What is certain is that both teams want full points in this match.  Monaco to overtake Lille, while Metz to overtake Nates who is ranked 16th. but in any case, Monaco's probability is higher than Metz even though they are the home team. So, Manaco should be able to win this match.

Another match, between Lyon and Reims.
These two teams are ranked close together, Lyon is in 10th position and while Reims is ranked above Lyon. The difference is, there is a 4 point difference between Lyon and Reims. It's just that, based on the league matches that these two teams have played, Lyon is slightly better than Reims. However, that doesn't mean this match will be easy for Lyon even though they are playing at home. because Reims will not be easily beaten. Moreover, in the first meeting Reims was able to overthrow Lyon. the difference is, Lyon is slightly superior to the opposing team. It could be, because Lyon is playing at home plus they are in a condition that leads to improved performance. referring to the available odds, both have attractive odds. which means, this match could knock each other out or end in a draw. my estimation, Under 2.75 is a good option even though it is risky. however, it is worth the odds given @1.91. Let's just wait and see the results of the match between these two teams.

Its good started for Karim Benzema by contributing one assists for him team after winning over 3-1 against Al Feiha, got back his regular position and seems Karim Benzema has decision keep stays for longer time with Al Ittihad after having some internal problem with manager until dropping out from main squad last several weeks ago. Based on I checked with Karim Benzema's social media account he was so excited with Saudi Arabia and most enjoying several moment to make close him self with Moslem culture.
I don't think Benzema will leave Al Ittihad next season although he can't bring positive result for his team in this season after failure in AFC Champion League and fail for defending domestic league tittle last season, Al Ittihad can prepare their squad for next season with target becoming the domestic league winner.

I didn't watch this match, but it seems that Al Ittihad played the match quite well. Based on match statistics, Al Ittihad was more dominant in controlling the match. Apart from that, Al Ittihad is superior in terms of the opportunities they create. In this match, Benzema contributed one assist. less bad, than not contributing at all. However, this victory should actually be a natural thing, considering that the two teams have a gap based on player depth and standings ranking. It's just that, I haven't seen Marcelo Gerllardo use the system that is usually his mainstay. In several matches, Al Ittihad tends to use a 4-4-2 pattern. But in reality, Gerllardo is a coach who promotes an offensive pattern. I think he experienced problems with the available players, which ultimately resulted in him often using a defensive pattern. however, at least Al Ittihad is starting to win match after match.

IMO, it looks like Marcelo Gerllardo needs additional players so he can implement the system he wants. Maybe if he hadn't been fired, Gerllardo would have brought in players according to his squad's needs. well, now Al Ittihad is in 4th place, 3 points ahead of Al Taawon. The following week, Al Ittihad will visit Al-Ahli's home ground. If Benzema and his friends are able to beat Al-Ahli's match later, that means Al Ittihad will move up to 3rd place. at least, not bad for last season's title winners. As for Benzema, we'll just follow his developments in the Saudi Pro League.
Another match, Al Hilal will visit Al Shabab. Meanwhile, Al Nassr will play the match against Al Tae. Well, let's just wait for the results of these two matches.

I think Barcelona can definitely beat Las Palmas in that match because the opponent is not a team that is difficult enough to beat, but still Barcelona should not underestimate Las Palmas even though they know that the team's performance is bad, on the other hand, Barcelona is in good performance, they should have the advantage of being the home team. Barcelona can do their best like other elite teams do when facing mediocre teams. Hopefully Barcelona can add to their points collection by beating Las Palmas so they can sit comfortably in 2nd position.

It is very doubtful that Las Palmas will be able to overthrow Barcelona at Camp Nou, especially since they have not achieved maximum results in their last 5 matches without winning. This at least makes Xavi not too worried, even though his team will not field a full core of players. Several names of Barcelona players are absent for an undetermined period of time, but this competition is almost towards the end. One of the things that cannot be confirmed yet is Gavi, De Jong, Pedri, Balde and currently Christensen also seems to be absent. I don't know the information regarding Joao Cancelo, but he is not on the list of injured players. Likewise with Lewandowski, it seems he will be used in this match. For midfielders, there is IIkay Gundohan who can be relied on based on his experience and mentality. front line, no doubt.

The only problem is, can Lewandowski show his skills in this match. In defense, there are quite doubts, even though this is just speculation regarding the line-up prediction that Xavi will play. and it looks like there are two young defenders who will play. If so, hopefully they will be able to adapt well and show their talents. otherwise, Barcelona will be very weak on the left wing defense. but if we look at the H2H meetings between these two teams, Barcelona always dominates the victory over Las Palmas.
Looking at the betting options, Barcelona is far superior with odds @1.28, while Las Palmas is at @9.80. So, there is a quite obvious gap. What worries me in this match is regarding Barcelona's defense line, Xavi is suspected to be fielding several young players. Well, my estimate is that in this match there will be at least 3 goals scored.

Manchester United are in good form at the moment but we don't know whether they can continue this positive trend after the international break because usually after the international break there will be changes in the team, especially in the first week after that.

Overall, Brentford's performance is far below Manchester United's, so they have a fairly small chance of getting points in this match.
In their last 5 matches, Brentford never won, they lost 4 times and drew 1, indeed Brentford's performance in the second half of this season was really so bad that Manchester United, who were competing to get into the top 4, made it possible to achieve the final victory. this week at home to Brentford.

The recent performance of Erik Ten Hag's squad can be said to be quite good, although to finish in the top four will be very difficult and a challenge for United's coach and players. after the international break, United should be able to improve so that they can continue to perform well, even better. however, the problem is that United still has players who are absent due to injury, some of whom are Ten Hag's mainstay in defense. But Erik Ten Hag's team should be able to provide resistance to the home team in this match. at least, the home team's performance was messier than United's.

In the Brentford camp, Thomas Frank's squad was very unstable. Of the last 6 matches they played, they were unable to get maximum points, including the last match against Burnley. In this match, even though Brentford is the home team, it won't be easy to beat United even though the Red Devils don't have their full starting eleven. not much different from the United squad, Thomas Frank's team also has many absent players and one of them has been suspended. IMO, this match should actually be proof for The Bees to get back on track so that they don't stay in 15th place in the Premier League standings.
However, it will be a challenge to overthrow United with the situation Brentford is currently experiencing. Based on the betting exchange, these two teams almost have equal odds. It is possible that the match could end in a draw, but there is no harm in betting on United with odds @2.25. because I am quite sure that United can win this battle.

351  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: March 30, 2024, 11:21:06 AM
Xabi Alonso is the most popular coach in Germany after maintaining such huge winning streak record for Bayer Leverkusen, it's no luck but consistent performance from good stats and hardwork players.

Leverkusen is a team that carries a unique system, under the current guidance of Xabi Alonso. this team is doing a very good job in various competitions, and currently has not experienced a defeat. yeah, a very brilliant achievement for Xabi and his squad. everyone works together for the benefit of the team, which ultimately produces something amazing beyond expectations.
Now, Leverkusen will play a match against Hoffenheim at BayArena. On paper, Leverkusen should be able to beat Hoffenheim quite smoothly. considering that Leverkusen is in a positive trend, as well as to smooth their progress in increasing the points gap from Bayern Munich.

In this match too, some of their mainstay players might be able to rely on them, for example Victor Boniface, who has been injured for quite a long time. Maybe Xabi will give him the opportunity to adapt in the second half. in the Hoffenheim camp, apart from being separated by a gap in the standings. several of their players were also absent due to injury, and one of them was suspended. It seems we can agree that this should be an easy match for Xabi Alonso's team, but football is unique and the result may be difficult for us to predict. Referring to betting odds, the available odds have a fairly obvious gap. but unfortunately, there are no ideal betting options for me for this match. even so, my estimate is that Leverkusen will win this match, at least they will score two goals. well, let's wait for the final result.

Most of these gunner's are noisy and lousy, they talk about the game too much but can they back it up finally? In the next couple weeks we will see to that.
They should focus on winning and not revenging, what has revenging got to do with this particular game? I feel pity for them because Bayern Munich will show no mercy on em.
Harry Kane will be ready for the club this weekend during the crunch game against Borrussia Dortmund. I don't want to see him back Injured so, hopefully he is not rushed back into the first team.

I do support the gunners to win the Premier League Competition but the Champions League Competition? Go back to history to see how much of a poor side they have been in the European Competitions when the games mattered.

In football, sometimes things happen that are not what we predict or speculate. It's true, Arsenal in the Champions League is not that prominent. However, it is important to note that history is history and does not mean it will end the same when these two teams meet again. we will know the answer after the quarter-final match is held. Will Bayern not show mercy to Arsenal, even though the match is held at the Emirates. or maybe vice versa, Arteta doesn't care which opposing team they face, the most important thing is that they have a mission to overthrow them. in addition to Arsenal, several players are doubtful if they can play, especially Gabriel Jesus and Saka. In the Munich camp, several players were also reported to be absent, including main goalkeeper Manuel Neuer. if so, we know how Sven Ulreich keeps goal for Bayern Munich. This goalkeeper's performance is very unstable. This means that Arsenal can take advantage of Bayern's weakness, especially as several of their defenders are also reported to be absent.

So, this match is interesting for me. because, maybe the situation turns around. I mean, Arsenal were able to show their abilities, especially playing in front of their own supporters.  Plus, Arsenal is currently different when Bayern beat them 10-2 on aggregate in 2017. I am an Arsenal supporter, but however I have to treat these two teams neutrally. In fact, Bayern is not as strong as before and Arsenal is starting to develop even more. The problem is, how will the mentality of Mikel Arteta's squad be tested in the quarter-final match later. In fact, even though I am a supporter of the Gunners, I am still realistic. In fact, there are other teams that are stronger and far favorites than Arsenal. However, at least I want to see how Mikel Arteta's team plays their match against Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals.

I just call the Pro League a stupid team if it spends money on unnecessary politics like that. Lewandowski is a rejection from his performance, and I am concerned about the statement of the SPL, saying that the club does not want to force a lot of money for the Europeans.
I think no more people should be added to join the pro league.Saudi Arabia's statement is very clear: if the club does not repeat the stupid mistake of wasting money on recruiting old players, it would be better for them to focus on their domestic market.
It is not wrong to link old players to Saudi Pro League, but I am sure that Saudi club will not agree to buy new players anytime soon. Saudi Arabia has said it will stop everything related to buying new players at unreasonable prices.Enough for the Saudi Pro League to become a dumping ground for European clubs' old players.

I don't dare say the same thing as you said, especially since we don't really know what they are really planning. what is certain is that this is related to business, politics and matters related to it, one of the underlying reasons is Ronaldo who was named as the ambassador for the 2030 Saudi Arabian World Cup. Apart from that, PIF was involved in acquiring 4 clubs at once with a very fantastic investment. Apart from being one of Newcastle's largest shareholders, PIF is also trying to develop football in Saudi. plus, they have big plans in their projects apart from football. Moreover, it is not only football that is under the auspices of PIF, several other types of sports are also sponsored by this investment company owned by the Saudi Kingdom. Apart from that, Saudi is starting to move in other businesses if I refer to my reading. one of them, they started through football.

For the other points you said, so far I am no longer up-to-date regarding information regarding what you said on several points. My focus at the moment is nothing more than football and the development of this competition. Well, we'll see what happens next. Can what you say be proven, or is it just rumors and ordinary news? because, there is no link that you shared in this post.

Every player has a responsibility to give their best to the team that feeds them instead of just carrying out their duties, especially if they are in the class of a star player like Kylian Mbappe. They will be required to give their best and continue to do so consistently every season, so there is no time to relax for players if they want to become prestigious players.

You are right, PSG has prepared the best solution when they let Kylian Mbappe go to another team at the end of the season. We don't know who is worthy of replacing him at PSG, but as long as PSG has money then anything is possible for them. I don't know about Mbappe's agreement with Real Madrid, but of course there are things that have to be sorted out, including the need for Real Madrid to let some of its players go if Mabppe comes.

Yeah we agree with that, every player has a moral responsibility as a professional athlete. It's not just a matter of salary, or just carrying out duties. but rather the demand to provide the best version of the game based on their respective positions. Mbappe is no exception, he is even burdened by the big name he bears. If he plays badly, a wave of criticism comes at him, either ridiculing him or demanding him to perform at his best. well, it's not easy to be Mbappe, who is always required to be consistent, especially since he is a big star. this season is his last season if we refer to his contract, so Mbappe must give the best version of his work. he must devote everything to the team, club and supporters before he actually leaves Paris Saint-Germain.

At the same time, if Mbappe ultimately leaves, the club will look for the ideal player to replace him. Several names have been linked with PSG, one of which is Osimhen. If there is communication between the various parties, it is not impossible that the Napoli striker will join the French League giants. yeah, as long as PSG offers something that is interesting to the player, it is not something that is easy for the club owner and the star to refuse. As for Mbappe and Real Madrid, we'll just have to wait and see. because, currently it is Mbappe's job to provide the best for the team, club and Paris Saint-Germain supporters.

Honestly, although mathematically yes Barcelona still has the advantage, realistically I think their chances are less than 5%. If Real Madrid loses points in a row with extraordinary results in the remaining matches and Barça wins, they can only be serious rivals in the championship race. I think Real Madrid will not turn back from this path.

La Liga has 9 matches left until the end of this competition, while Real Madrid is in the safe zone with a difference of 8 points ahead of Barcelona. so, theoretically Barcelona still has the opportunity to compete closely with Real Madrid.  yeah, like you said. But that means, at least Real Madrid must slip in 3 of their 9 matches. Thus, Barcelona has the potential to overtake its ranking. Unfortunately, it seems that it will be difficult to achieve this, even though in the last 9 matches anything could happen. But the point is, Xavi's focus is on how to bring his squad without defeat in the remainder of this competition while hoping that Madrid slips up in some of their matches. However, it seems that Real Madrid will remain consistent match after match, including when they host the match against Barcelona in the 32nd match. Moreover, several important Barcelona players have not yet confirmed their recovery from injuries. such as De Jong, for example, Pedri, Balde, Christensen and several players who were previously absent. So, Barcelona's position is not in a favorable situation. but at least, Xavi has a minimum mission for Barcelona to finish in runner-up position until the end of this season. However, let's just look at every match presented by La Liga until the end.

I'm not saying Arsenal is not good, they still have a chance to beat Manchester City, but their chances are not as good as Manchester City. You have to admit that and in fact it is true that Manchester City is the favorite at home because of the team's performance as well as its home record. If you look at the history of meetings between the two teams at the Etihad over the last few seasons, then you will definitely say the same thing, even though Manchester City cannot always win.

There are all possibilities regarding this match, including Arsenal winning, drawing or losing, and vice versa. However, on my part, Manchester City tends to be reliable at home, especially because they are also fighting to win the top of the standings to maintain their title dominance. It is one of the most anticipated big matches this week and I don't want to miss it.

What is certain is that this match is a big match presented by the Premier League this weekend, both teams both need full points. City needs full points to overtake Arsenal's ranking, and Ateta's team also needs it to increase the points gap from teams below their ranking. even though we all know, it will be difficult to overthrow Pep Guardiola's team at the Etihad Stadium, TheCitizen's home ground. I'm really sure that Arteta is aware of it, as is Pep Guardola.

In the Arsenal camp, Arteta will instruct his team to play carefully and put more pressure into City's defense. plus focus on the defense line, because City players can score goals at any time if the Arsenal defenders are careless. Moreover, several Gunners players are doubtful about playing in this match.
In the City camp, as the home team they have a bigger chance, especially playing in front of their own supporters. also, the probability of Manchester City is higher than Arsenal to win this matchup. However, like Arsenal, it is doubtful that several other City pillars will play in the match against Arsenal. especially some of Pep's mainstay defenders, as well as De Bruyne's status. However, City is still the favorite based on the betting market. well, we agree with what you said. This match could provide a surprise, after all Arsenal was previously able to overthrow Man City even with a lucky win in my opinion. I can't wait for this match, especially as I hope that Arsenal can provide the game that we as supporters expect.

According to Fabrizio, Xabi Alonso has already renewed for one year with Bayer Lev. and the agreement will be announced publicly shortly.
He should also have a release clause for 2025.
Hard blow for Bayern M. who thought they had already signed him after Tuchel.
Who will the Germans go to now? Will they try for Conte or try hard for Klopp?



I also read from the same report, namely Fabrizio Romano. he reported several tweets, which suggested that Alonso would stay with Bayer Leverkusen. quote that a few hours ago, Xabi Alonso had a good meeting with Bayer Leverkusen and told them that he will stay and remain at the club. which means Alonso won't be going anywhere next summer, whether it's to Bayern Munich or Liverpool. Alonso remains with Leverkusen, he even said that this is not the time to decide his future, he wants to develop at Bayer Leverkusen.

Talking about Bayern Munich, I'm sure Munich has other options even though initially their priority was Alonso. however, it seems that Bayern Munich is aware that there are clubs competing for his services. That's why several other coaches are on Bayern's list to replace Tuchel, one of which is the Feyenoord coach. so, this is just a matter of the ideal candidate if Alonso is not willing to leave Leverkusen.
Likewise with Liverpool, Jurgen Kloop also commented on Xabi Alonso's decision. Kloop said Alonso did an extraordinary job there. Kloop also said he understood that Alonso wanted to do that. well, in the end Liverpool also had to look for a potential successor to Jurgen Kloop because the coach they were targeting remained with the team and club. Let's just follow further developments.  both for Bayern Munich, and Liverpool.

Hi community,

When we make a bet and put our money on the line, we may lose money, time, and even some daily tasks that we neglect, and the first goal remains to make a quick profit with the largest possible amount of money, but I do not know why some people consider bets to be more  for fun  and a way to spend time than to win money.

Personally, I would consider it fun when my budget is much greater than my losses or when I gamble with someone else's money, and this is something I would not do if I had no benefit in it.

I think there are those who agree with me and those who do not agree with me, but it remains my personal opinion and it's an opportunity to share it with you on this topic.

So where's the fun when you lose your money?

There are various ways a person can express how they gamble, whether just for fun or spending their free time for entertainment. or, there are various reasons for each person who likes this type of gambling entertainment. the problem is, this type of entertainment has risks. first, we have to spend money as a medium. apart from that, be prepared to lose. another impact is that we will most likely be forced to spend a lot of time and ultimately ignore several tasks or work that should be completed. if it's about winning money, everyone loves it. you know, we will always be involved with money in life. Likewise with gambling, all gamblers like winning, especially getting big rewards as bonuses. But it's important to remember, gambling isn't just about money. there are various ways someone can interpret it, apart from getting a big win.

If you think it's more fun when your budget is much bigger than the losses, that's your right. but in reality, most of them are not as you hope. interestingly, you asked and I will quote: So where's the fun when you lose your money? the answer is, stop gambling because you will never achieve what you want. for me, pleasure is not just getting money.  in gambling, we can get something fun from the features and games that we like. playing it, enjoying every sensation, and getting pleasure from the entertainment provided, that is the essence of pleasure. If you lose, don't you know the risks of gambling? so, stop it if it's no longer fun.

Hi community,

We always hear about a gambler who has been harassed, expelled, or banned from a casino for a number of justified or unjustified reasons. There are those who have been banned for violating the laws or internal regulations of the casino, or for suspicious actions that negatively affect the course of play, or chaos inside the casino, or for other unknown reasons.

Have you been in this situation before?
It's a pleasure to hear your story.

If that happened to me, it would be a very embarrassing tragedy for me personally. in all my experience, I have never experienced such a situation. I mean, like the title of this thread. being expelled or forcibly expelled is something that is personally embarrassing, unless there are rules that do not allow it or that we violate. If so, I can understand it. however, if someone is in a physical casino and is thrown out, especially by force. that means, there is something wrong with the visitor. whether it's behavioral issues, manipulation, harming or disturbing other people, or anything like that that makes someone have to leave the casino, either by force or by being asked to leave the casino. Broadly speaking, most cases are individual problems for the casino visitors. although in reality, it doesn't have to be that specific.

It's just that, a casino, especially a well-known one, will treat its customers very well and be treated like their guests, without exception. however, if there are incidents of things like what you said in this thread, it means there is something wrong with the visitor, so the casino must act according to the rules they have made. fortunately, I never experienced that throughout my experience. Well, there are several things that gamblers who want to visit a physical casino should know. Moreover, a well-known casino which in fact has a big name. For the Asian region, I have visited it several times. outside of Asia, I have never visited and it is a destination that has not been reached. Therefore, it is very important if you want to visit a physical casino to know what their regulations are. or don't occasionally do things that are beyond our limits, as I said above. In this way, we will enjoy the sensations and facilities provided by the casino without any expulsion.

Well, for me this question is not specific enough. but okay, let's discuss it from my betting perspective. Talking about the rules and regulations related to gambling in sports betting, it's actually not that complicated for me personally. Most importantly, don't force yourself to bet on something you don't know, don't force it if it's not relevant regarding the odds. I mean, if there is no ideal choice option to choose as a bet. even though, this match is a crucial match. Apart from that, recognize something that is important to know. The reason is, we involve betting, apart from liking sports. increase your knowledge regarding anything about the sport so that we have broad insight to be involved in the bets we will make.

Personally, I only bet on a few matches from various leagues. Even then, I have sorted and selected before. then, research and analyze it. as I said above, if nothing is ideal, feel free to not bet. After all, there are still other matches. for example, the next day, or next week. my rule, bet on single bets. 1 or 2 matches I choose, that's enough. It could also be more, but with conditions, we have won the previous bet. As for the multibet option, it depends on the bet we are betting on. if I bet big, 3 games is the most. However, if the bet is low, maybe it could be more than 4 or 5 matches. Well, these rules and regulations have become part of my gambling especially on football.
