The games of tonight are about to start after that miserable fail of Tottenham yesterday night but I was smart enough in that game as I predicted that it would not win already as you can see in the picture here.



For tonight though there is money to be made but I have gone for a reasonable bet which is Brighton team Over 1.5 goals and despite the odd being 1.63 and not great I think the chances are high for this to come up.Also I think Aston Villa should win again after that great win against Chelsea and I predict also Liverpool to win against Chelsea and change of coach will not show anything new.

They have converted a lot of traditional FIAT users and those users are people who love to try new things and technologies and are what we call tech-savvy users so they know their way around Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.They immediately can spot the benefit of using crypto compared to FIAT as it gives you a level of privacy you cannot find in the FIAT ones,in there you have to pass through the third party to add money to your account which in this case 99% of the cases is the bank or digital money processors like Paypal which still passes through your bank and 1% not that common nowadays is Western Union.

Now these benefits compared to a huge amount of slot providers and games as crypto casinos offer more than normal ones,as I rarely have seen the same providers in bet365 and crypto ones when it comes to slot gaming,the puzzle is complete as why this boom of increased users.

So I managed to completely forget about F1 over the weekend, checked and I saw I had a relatively poor performance, thanks largely to all the DNFs... so much so even my old "fav" Tsunoda finally got AT their first point haha.

So loads of drama, and supposedly expected, I really need to read up on the next track to see if there will be similar predictions -- these always seem to take drivers out (LeClerc on Lap 1 being the most magnificent dud).

The next one is exactly one that last year saw both Ferraris out because of mechanical problems and is a really heavy city track for the cars,usually in this race less than 16.5 cars end the race there.It is going to be an epic race in Azerbaijan this time but we have to wait for about 3 weeks from now as it takes time before this race takes place.Predictions we have said several times that we need to make after the Saturday early morning practices so we can have a better picture before putting our picks and that is what you must do.I also had a lot of DNF choices in this race but also a lot of other had the same,as we saw 12 points was the maximum.

Good day, everyone I want to share a little idea about gambling, and the idea is about WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO GAMBLE? On my schedule I mostly gamble in the afternoon 🔅 but letter I was with my friends and we were discussing the best time for gambling so many people says is evening then also checked google and it was the same answer then I also want to share the view with you guys
https://www.askgamblers.com/gambling-news/blog/best-time-to-play-slots/
So now the evening is the best time to gamble because of your daily activities


I think it was evening some time before.I also used to win quite considerable amounts when playing from 8 PM to 12 AM most of the time in slot machines as normally the slots are being fed during the day and during night they should spit out something was everybody's theory.Unfortunately now almost everybody knows it and almost everyone plays at evening and as such the last couple of months I have been losing considerable amounts without hitting at least a big win in different slot providers.I don't know about other games but evening now is the worst time to gamble.

I know you won't believe me when I say that this time is a definitive move from me that I am not ever again touching slots but this time is for real,you will almost never see me commenting on this thread as I learned that you win once and lose 99 times out of 100 game play sessions that you have and this seems a bit to much to handle for me,it makes me feel like the most idiot person in the world knowing such statistics and going back to gamble.I will stick to sport betting and no nothing happened that I lost big or something similar,I just want to quit in a definite way and I will do it.
well, you have realized this. but sorry I'm a little doubtful, because I'm sure at least once a week you will definitely try to play slots several times to cure your longing for this game. Cheesy
I don't know why this slot game is so annoying, makes so many people lose and angry, but why these people always miss this game and keep coming back for more even though they realize that slots are just a waste.

this past week I saw several people saying the same thing to stop playing Slots. but in the end they came back and shared the victory.
It's funny if there are still people who say they want to stop playing slot-type gambling but that person still comes in and gives reviews on slot game threads.
It seems that he is a crazy gambler so he says that slots are bad and annoying games but in his heart says differently and really wants to continue playing in slot games.
Slot games can make gamblers addicted because the games are very fun to play and make everyone who plays slot games constantly curious about getting maxwin.
It's a lie if gamblers say that slot games are bad to the point of wanting to stop playing them.

It is exactly one week from that post and I have not played slots,don't get me wrong though,I may still play but now it is an absolute thing that I won't spend more than 5-10 dollars and that is a very low amount to play slot machines so it is almost like non playing,I have migrated to sport bets and I will never look back,you will almost not see me here giving again reviews for slot machines,I will try the new ones in demo mode but as I said it is an absolute decision this time that I will just spin a couple of dollars max weekly and not play like 100-200 dollars like I used to do,so I will be posting next week also here to say the same thing  Grin.
4046  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: April 04, 2023, 08:01:41 AM
Atletico Madrid have indeed continued to maintain their current consistency very well. I even believe that in the next match Atletico will still be able to win. even the difference in points with Real Madrid is getting thinner. so that Real Madrid also cannot be complacent and must continue to defend their victory. because the difference of 5 points with Atletico Madrid is not a big difference.
Actually, for now Atletico is indeed maintaining a trend where they continue to secure a position in the top 3. But for the sake of achievement they are still there and they will still be difficult to overtake Madrid no matter what.
Atletico, Barcelona and Madrid have always been the top teams in La Liga but still in this case the clear order is Atletico in 3rd place. Even though for the previous few seasons they always put real pressure on and even won La Liga once too but for now not possible and they can only be in the top 3 and that is something that is absolutely certain.
of course it might be like that. As long as Real Madrid also continues to win in the remaining matches this season, of course Atletico will not be able to overtake Real Madrid. and maybe you are right. even after I saw Atletico Madrid's match schedule on Matchday 30 it seemed that Atletico would most likely lose points in that match. because on Matchday 30 Atletico Madrid must face Barcelona who currently top the standings and have the best level of consistency in Laliga so far this season. but with 11 games left in the season anything can still happen.

I think that is not a sure thing.If we look at past matches Atletico Madrid to Barcelona is some kind of "black cat" which has caused damage to Barcelona as they have been able to win against them even when Barcelona was much stronger than it is now,in the glorious days of Messi,Atletico Madrid has managed to win against Barcelona so I would not say it is a sure thing.

Also lately Atletico Madrid has had a better run compared to Real Madrid and I think anything can happen in 11 games,they may even be capable of surpassing Real Madrid in the standings in the end of the season.

Tonight we are again having a great game in Serie A,it is what they call "the derby of Italy" as we will watch a beautiful game tonight Juventus vs Inter.Normally we will see it in other conditions now as neither of the teams is fighting for the title however I think this will be a great test for each team for their European campaigns which they are still playing there,Inter in Champions and Juventus in Europa League.In this game though based on their last one Inter vs Juventus where Juventus won 0-1 I predict the same,a victory for Juventus here but maybe we will see more goals and a both teams to score game.

I feel like it is not Max Verstappens talent that is the only reason why he is leading the season right now, the car is also a dominating one and that's why he was so easy to just let them pass.

This way we are talking about basically overtaking them within span of few laps when the time came. He literally let the other drivers take him over at the start so that they wouldn't crash, knowing that he has a much faster car, and I mean much much faster, and in the end he didn't even needed that at all, because it was a rolling start and finish as well. Ferrari on the other hand looking as terrible as they could potentially look, they are really not even around, and they need to change something quickly.

Maybe he let them in the start but I think more that Mercedes drivers are better than him at the start,we already seen this a couple of times last season but these are not important now.What is important as you also pointed out is that he overtook the cars like it was a Playstation game and not a real race,this shows that Redbull is still dominating big time and even if it were Perez starting first,he would have also won the race based on the conditions and all those red flags and restart we saw on Sunday.Nothing to do except to wait for the other teams to catch up with Redbull and this for fans is not beautiful at all.
4049  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: April 04, 2023, 05:48:18 AM
You can never trust a team like Tottenham,they started the first half of the game yesterday night suffering a lot of attacks from Everton and it looked like they could not do anything to hold back Everton until they got a red card early in the second half of the game.Even when everything looked in favor of Tottenham and they scored,they could just not keep up with the pressure from Everton despite Everton being with ten men for that part of the game and they kept the pressure going until they scored and even Tottenham got a red card.

I dont know what to expect on Baku, the only thing i want its to any team to catch a little RedBull they make the race really boring, they are a flash against the other cars.

Lets see if the step forward of Mercedes was only a good mood with the track of if they really find some pace.

The big surprise for me in this track was Alpine, really in pace and fighting against Ferrari. But i think its not so mensurable because i see a lot of teams in the fight when they normally cant fight, so i dont know.

I don't think Mercedes has improved dramatically at the point to beat Redbull.We saw in this last race as both drivers of Mercedes had a much better start than Redbull during the restarts of the race but when it come to Verstappen overtaking these drivers on track it looked like a Playstation game more than like a race competition as Redbull seem to have an additional gear compared to the other cars which makes me pessimistic in predicting some team catching up with them.

As for Baku which is 3 weeks away because China race is suspended,I only hope that we don't see mechanical failures like we saw last race as both Ferraris were out because of such problems.

I have about $600 and would like to know the best graphics card I can find for that money

If you have just 100 dollars more you can get a pretty decent used Rtx 3090 and with the money you have you can get a Rtx 3080 I think which is the second best card of the series 3000 (not counting the 3080 ti which came later and is in the same league as 3090).If you are asking for mining 3090 and also 3080 are great cards too,the only problem is that now we are in that crypto winter or bear market as everybody else calls it and the profits are not that good.

With just one such card in your home PC if your PSU accepts it,you can try mining before venturing further,you can keep the card to play games and do other activities during the day and try mining at night,you would get an idea.With that money though,3080 is the best option or you can buy 2 x Rtx 2080 ti which gives you the same hash rate as the 3090.Lots of choices now that the prices of video cards are down.

I agree @LFC_Bitcoin Hendo is past his years but he/Milner are giving way more on the pitch then say, Fabinho, who seems to be giving up running. Even Gakpo was doing more midfield work than Fab when we were chasing back. Also, I still think we're suffering from last season having no break and wringing our players dry. That's not defending how bad they've been, just I think the club didn't act smart to replenish the team with fresh legs etc.

El Shitico is the most accurate assessment of tomorrow's game. Problem is, no more Potter and Rodgers and Conte to help people forget how bad Liverpool is.

It is true that Liverpool in its current form is not satisfying its fans and supporters. I believe that Liverpool needs new players after all the disruptions it has suffered this season, especially in midfield and a striker. Therefore, we will need to see that this summer.

Tomorrow we will face the Blues away, and I don't think I will bet on this match. We will see if Liverpool can achieve a victory against Chelsea, which itself has not achieved the desired results this season.

At the moment, we have a match between Tottenham and Everton, and there are only two minutes left in the first half, and the result does not serve either club. I hope that Tottenham can score in the second half and achieve the expected result of 2-0.

I think Liverpool can beat Chelsea especially after Chelsea management firing Potter at a very delicate part of this season.The first to benefit from such move it will surely be Liverpool which is going to win that game.I doubt that firing Potter was the right move to make at such time,right before a very important all in encounter which they have against Real Madrid in Champions and which is the only choice for Chelsea to compete in Europe next season too,but that is highly unlikely for them to qualify further.

On the game of tonight,Everton strange enough is pressuring a lot and Tottenham which has a golden opportunity to solidify their run to be in the top 4 are missing out,I hope this changes in the second half.
4053  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: April 03, 2023, 07:41:42 PM
This is a result that was beyond everyone's expectations, even if you look at the odds from the bookmaker they favor Napoli to win. But did not expect that Milan beat Napoli with a score of 0-4 without reply. Even without Osimhen who is currently injured, it is very difficult for Napoli to score goals in this match, maybe their defense is also very fragile in the match which makes Milan even more free to score goals. This was their second defeat at home, having previously only lost to Lazio this season.
I didn't foresee Napoli to lose to Milan by a score of 0-4. Because Napoli is leading the Seria A league and has a significant lead over other clubs that are vying for the league trophy, I picked them to win. Nevertheless, Napoli's loss to Milan doesn't matter as much in the Seria A but it shouldn't happen in the champions league in the coming days(12th and 15th of April) because they will be playing against the same Milan that defeated them in the Seria A


It will be a completely different thing when they face each other in the Champions League as Napoli is already Champions of Serie A and they did not focus that much on that game,they did not care if they lost the game as nothing changes in Serie A standings.Of course they never expected to lose 0-4 on yesterday game but sometimes it just happens.

Napoli wants at all cost to qualify further for the Champions League as once they qualify in semi-finals they will find either Benfica or Inter Milan,teams which I think are in their reach to go to the final if they focus on them but first they need to win against Milan and that will be a really interesting game,totally different from the yesterday one.
4054  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What could be the Symptoms of Getting Loss in gambling According to you? on: April 03, 2023, 07:15:31 PM
I think that maybe this question might have repeated over time but still I was Saying that I have seen that when we loose almost 50% of our portfolio in loss than we get nervous and we don't know what to do. As we work hard and make our lives better but we end up loosing our money. So I think these cloud be main symptoms. And these are listed below as these are according to me.
1. First things is that we want all in all to cover our losses in just one bet.
2. We use leverage that is more than enough to blow account in matter of minutes and that is very bad.
3. We don't know what to do.
4. We get addicted to gambling and that is bad.
5. We become frustrated and some people end up loosing their lives cause they don't have any choice.


By the way don't Roast me 🙂😜

I was once in such situation and that was when playing slots.The fact that you know instantly if you have won or lost in such type of game makes you want to come back for more,the providers keeps getting better and better in providing you a storyline,a great art effects and great sound track to keep you hooked and time looks like it is flying when playing and enjoying these games,the only problem is that money also looks like is flying away  Grin from you and that is the first sign of addiction,you need more money to try and get that jackpot.

How I came out of it is simple,I just migrated to sport betting as in here for example most weekdays the games are late at night and you have to wait for the result of the games to know if you are a winner or too,this removes from you that urge to gamble that inevitably brings someone to addiction.There are other ways to fight it but this one seems to be working well.

I'm using this but at the current price point the highest profitable GPU in the market is NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Ti Revenue around ~ $6 or so and breakeven about a year

https://whattomine.com/gpus

That is a really good daily revenue for a single card no matter how expensive this card is,break even about a year makes it fun again for people who have enough money to build a rig with 6 x 4090 and are in for the long run.In my country back in the days of 3090 many people build rigs with them up to 25.000 EUR one because they bought at hyperinflated prices and they could not wait or to be in for the long run and I even saw one time one 6 x 3090 rig going for just 4500 EUR when ETH moved to POS.Smart people who are in for the long run of course bought that rig.
4056  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season on: April 03, 2023, 01:36:05 PM
Chelsea are not so powerful this season, they are inconsistent, in the bottom half of the EPL table and just recently fired their manager, so it is all going wrong for Chelsea at the moment. I think it would be quite easy for Real Madrid to eliminate Chelsea, just as it was easy for them to eliminate Liverpool in the RO16. Chelsea have a good and young squad, but quite a lot of them lack the experience that Real Madrid's players have in the CL. I predict City are going to defeat Bayern, and Real Madrid are going to eliminate Chelsea, thus we are then going to have a repeat of last season's CL SF between City and Real Madrid.

Potter got fired, well it was expected, the only question was how much Boehly had the patience. It would seem that Chelsea is still in the Champions League and perhaps dismissal before the Champions League match with Real is not the best time, but with the replacement of the coach, Boehly pulled as much as he could. Real Madrid will benefit the most in this situation.


Exactly it was playing stupid from Boehly to fire the coach at such a delicate time when next week they will be facing Real Madrid in the Champions League.Boehly is behaving like a little kid honestly spending a lot of money and buying players like he is playing "Football Manager" up to over 270 million pounds and the results we all saw them up until now.I know that the results do not justify Potter but I also think that Boehly rushed in this decision,I am sure we will see even more bad results from Chelsea in the remaining part of the season and I don't doubt that they will be eliminated with a tennis result in Champions League.

Yesterday many bettors lost money on PSG and there were a lot of them because during the day we had a lot of unexpected results and people were eager to win money in the night games and almost all gamblers played PSG which together with Napoli made sure that anybody who played the night games lost their tickets.As for Messi,he is a player which you cannot complain about him despite some bad presences in the squad,overall I think he is still an asset to PSG and they are already looking forward next season in the Champions League.

Now if these exchanges stop their operations I am sure we will see something like immediate conversion service like Shapeshift.io if I remember the service correctly.Then to exchange to money,to FIAT we can use direct exchanges like the one anyone can find on bestchange.com website.Bottom line is we will survive and find a way always.

I have seen several casinos with promotions where they do "drops" to thousands of people or they give bonuses to several gamblers, but how transparent is this process?

Do you think casinos are really doing these drops to 1000s of people or are they skimming from the top.... ? They might say a drop is for 2500 people, but they might only drop for 500 people and nobody will know. Yes, some of those 500 people will report that they have received the drop and it will look legit.... but is it really?

How can the gamblers verify that the actual amount of people are receiving the drop or the bonus, if there are no list to verify it? Let's discuss this.. I am curious if other people also thought about this...  Tongue

Some casinos are very transparent about it.It shows such transaction in the form of a tip for example in the Stake casino while I am playing casino slots I have the habit to keep the chat open and as they promise they give random rain drops to Platinum VIP-s there and I can see the transactions as it shows there in the form of a tip from a moderator to that person.I have no way to verify further the internals but I think this is enough to judge if a casino is not lying to us and what furthers makes me believe it,is the weekly bonus and monthly bonus which all member from the first level of VIP and on.
4060  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: April 03, 2023, 07:45:52 AM

Tonight's big win is of course an important capital for Real Madrid to face Barcelona in the second leg. I am very sure Los Blancos will be even more motivated, they will of course chase victory to open up hope of winning the Copa Del Rey trophy. But of course Barcelona is also very strong, Xavi's troops have also won 1-0 in the first leg.

In La Liga, Real Madrid's opportunities are tightly closed, the 12-point difference with Barcelona is not an easy matter for Madrid to catch up to. Therefore, I am absolutely sure that Ancelotti will exert his full strength in the 2nd leg of the CDR. Because only CDR has a trophy opportunity for Los Blancos.
The competition at the top flight this season is much more different than in previous seasons. Until now, Madrid must admit that Barcelona is better and more stable. Meanwhile, Barca is leading with 71 points or a difference of 12 points with 11 games remaining, it is clearly not easy for El Real.

Yes, I agree with you, Madrid must shift its focus to the Copa Del Rey and also the Champions League because opportunities in La Liga seem to have closed for them. A convincing victory over Valladolid must be used as a foundation for a comeback when going against Barcelona in the second leg, Madrid must win on aggregate to open up great opportunities to win another local level champion.

Their second leg against Barcelona in copa del Rey will be surely very important and they will put all efforts to win this match not only because it's the only local competition left for them but also because Barcelona dominated the last matches against real Madrid and they will surely play for a revenge

I think that most likely will not be the case,Real has only one objective right now for this season and it is the Champions League,they will be playing next week there and I think that despite their opponent looks easy based on their recent form as Chelsea is losing a lot of games,it won't be easy for Real Madrid.They have very slim chances to make a comeback in the second leg of the Copa del Rey and as such I doubt they will be trying hard in this game.The only way they turn things around is if they find a weak and not focused Barcelona but we all know that rarely we see a non focused Barcelona when playing against Real Madrid.
