This is actually very bad news for Bayern Munich. If they now have to look for a new goalkeeper, it will not be easy. They have to hurry up. The transfer window is only open for a little more than 3 weeks. That is a building site they would certainly have liked to have spared themselves. But they also had experience with that when Neuer was injured.
Let us see who will be in goal next Friday. Maybe Ullreich?
Thomas Tuchel will definitely look for good ways to develope his squad, to be ready for next season challenges. It would be a tough fight for the title with the presence of Borrusia Dortmund who are determined to fight with their full strength. Bayern Munich having challenges with goalkeeper, but they will always sort out their way to replace Manuel Neuer with the very best. The Bavarians have alternatives to choose variety of best goalkeepers from the market this summer, moreover they got good taste when it comes to stellar performance.

Thomas Tuchel is an experienced coach who always has a way of dealing with any problems at his club even though goalkeeper Manuel Neuer has to rest until next season but I'm sure that the coach will get a replacement soon.
About Borussia dortmund I am also very sure that this is his chance to compete and replace Munich because of the loss of his best goalkeeper so that dortmund cannot miss this situation to get the Bundesliga title this season which will start later.
Getting a new keeper won't be a difficult thing for them because the window is still open until September and asides Neuer they still have another keeper who they could use temporarily before they get a new replacement for Sommers, i think before they thought about letting him go, already they should've had other players in their target for his replacement so that should be the least they'll be worried about.
 I feel the position they need to fill in mostly is that of the striker and since getting Harry Kane is becoming very tough due to Daniel levy's demand they should seek other Alternatives even though it means getting a good striker on loan like the case of Ramos at PSG, and prepare to get Kane by the winter windows or for free next summer if they're still interested by then, But since they're not making any move towards that it might be that they're very confident on getting Kane and a move might lightly happen before the window ends, with hints that he was left out in the match against Barcelona.

Interestingly of course, the situation is becoming more tense and perhaps clearer. Because after all, PSG had also made a strong decision to extend Mbappe contract with an increased salary as well, but Mbappe refused. Also, PSG had decided to sell Mbappe but again, Mbappe chose to stay for one more season. Mbappe attitude like that, obviously made PSG anger overflow and with that too, now PSG is taking another action not to include Mbappe in the player list. That way, it might become clear that if Mbappe wants to leave, then leave at this moment because if he stays, it seems like it will be useless for Mbappe too because he will not be included in the PSG squad later.
If Mbappe had stayed with PSG this season the relationship between Mbappe and PSG would not have been harmonious because PSG really didn't need Mbappe anymore after PSG had bought a lot of players for their front line. Until now, Mbappe is still a PSG player, but he has been exiled from the PSG main squad. He really got unfavorable treatment from PSG, but it was all because of his actions, which did not want to extend the contract with PSG.

Exactly 3 more days before Ligue 1 rolls around but the Mbappe transfer saga is still a question mark because no team has yet been able to submit an offer to PSG according to their wishes to get Mbappe. In addition, Real Madrid cannot guarantee that they will bring in Mbappe in this transfer window because they have not yet decided to make an offer to PSG.
Exactly because it would affect his performance, scoring ability mental health and even cause an issue in the dressing room because his attitude might affect other players because his mind is not with PSG anymore and giving him such punish would even worsen the whole situation more they'll be on the losing side because he'll still get his salary while he trains harder to prepare for the next season and them losing him for free.
 The best thing they would had done is reduce their offer to attract possible European teams to come get him or terminate his contract and let him go for free like Manchester united did with Cristiano Ronaldo then it would be win win for both parties other than holding a player who's mind is made up to leave the club, Mbappe's dream has been to play for a top club like Realmadrid and I don't see him having a good performance with PSG if he stays one extra year.

It would surely be a surprise to me if City would struggle against a club like Burnley. You seem to think Manchester City depends solely on Haaland to score goals. And it’s somewhat laughable that a just promoted team to the EPL Burnley, would give the current title holders, Manchester City a tough time. I think  Manchester City would win the game and claim this 3 points easily.
City doesn’t depend solely on Haaland and the sooner any team realizes that, the greater chance they’ve got to actually stand a chance against them.
Congratulations to Burnley and Kompany on being promoted to the EPL. Now, they’ve got to face stronger competition.


Burnley would be hard to beat, that's because they'll want to impress after returning back from Championship. Manchester City depends on the entire squad for goals but last season more goals came from the talented viking.
Manchester City will win the game but then, But then, I'd love to see Vincent Kompany winning at home. With how impotent Erling Haaland was last Sunday, I double doubt he'll be on the score sheet against Burnley, it's a tough prediction, but I'm hoping to see it happening.
The decision of the outcome of the match between Burnley and Manchester is slightly tough for me to decide, because it's a match between a club legend and  his former coach and both would be lookikg to have a win, Burnley just got promoted into the league and would be very tough and defend most of the time against big teams making it tough for them to score easily, however Mancity are the defending champions and would want to have a win from the beginning of the league not minding who they're playing against losing the start of the season is one thing Guardiola won't likely tolerate.
 But one thing i know is that no matter how tough Burnley acts or how defensive his team plays they might only get a draw and not win City because so far Guardiola's midfield is intact with Debruyne and kovacic included then a goal or two must definitely get in, Guardiola would always be Guardiola and won't fail to get 3points with a good goal margin when he sees a chance to.

I don't remember breaking price of Mohamed Salah contract with Liverpool. Saudi Professional League clubs don't have too many financial problems to satisfy financial demands from Liverpool or Mohamed Salah. They are simply too rich and money is not their problems whatsoever.

Salah's salary at Liverpool is £18.2 million per year. And Al-Ittihad is ready to pay a transfer fee of £52 million. Given this, I don't think that there will be any objections from Liverpool. But then, it matters whether Salah wants to move to Saudi Arabia or not. His salary is getting increased by 4x, but that alone doesn't guarantee his move to the Saudi club. Al Hilal tried the same with Messi by offering him more than a billion USD, and still he refused and moved to MLS. If Salah has an emotional attachment to Liverpool, then he may refuse to move.

Gerrard has warned salah to stay in liverpool rather than going to the saudi club like ronaldo. It's a very hard choice for salah caused by saudi was near of his country. Salah can visit his family anytime. Money is not always become the main consideration.
Salah was coming from egypt. He can also able to meet his family, this can also become his major consideration if he will decide to accept saudi's offer. He is aging now and he must think about enjoying his life with his family. His life is not always about football. There's no response has come from him. I doubt if salah gonna reject it. We shall wait for him to decide which gonna be his choice for the future of his career. Saudi's offer is very lucrative for him.
I wanna see salah to play in saudi pro league.
I think Gerald is right and that's not a warning but an advise, because Sarah still has a lot to offer on the Premier league and even if he wants to move to the Saudi league it should in the future and not now, because moving now would not be very beneficial to his career maybe only financially though and I think if he finally decided to move there it would be because of the money or his religion, because if his family wants to see him they could book a flight and come visit at different times.
 Left for be I think he's not very old and still got about two three years left to try win a trophy with an European team and based on his good relationship with his coach and Club owners I don't think he would likely betray his loyalty to the club as well as the love from Liverpool fans, except maybe he's persuaded to take the offer and join the Saudi league for the benefit of his family,also since the new season is around the corner I don't think Jurgen klopp would likely lose another key player to the Saudi side this summer.
4065  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Healthy mindset to save earnings from gambling on: August 09, 2023, 07:58:45 PM
some years ago i heard people from my country saying that money attracts more money, people from my country used this phrase to say that a very rich person who has many businesses that give him a lot of money every day, when he puts money in any thing is more likely to see a return on that money and a lot of profits, being more specific and direct, let's imagine that a very rich person invests $20,000 in a car business, as this very rich person does not depend on that business to live (to pay bills like water , electricity, food ) so all the money that the business is generating this rich person will be saving and with that he will easily be able to see if he made a profit or not


and if that person wins at the casino and keeps 200$ for example, then that would be more money to play for longer. so where is the mistake that many people make? and not having discipline and good money management. for example if the person knows that he has no business and depends only on a job and at the end of the month when he pays all the bills there is only 50$ for fun and that person wants to play longer, then that person needs to put only 10$ destined for games and if you place sports bets it will be better for that person to place only 2$ per week for bets, with that you will have 4 weeks to bet, when you reach the end of the month, the person puts in another 10$ and by doing this the bankroll grows if the person is winning the games
Left for me i tgink a money well spent attract more money and it's true that the rich people have a better chance of financial support and better chances of winning when it comes to gambling I've noticed that people stand a good chance of winning when they stake very high on smaller odds than staking little of very big odds, for instance a rich man staking $1000  dollar on a 1.50 odd of just 2 games and a poor man staking $10 on 2000 odds of 20- 30 games obviously the rich man stand a good chance of winning and It would take luck for the poor man to win such a game.
 The rich people stand a better chance of winning big because they have the finance to stake high on low risk games and have other streams of income to fall back to for money when they lose a bet, and I've noticed that it's mostly the people that mostly take gambling as a major source of income because most of them have less or no stream of income.

I still feel like Elon Musk was and is just bragging about it but things get little bit too big. I think Elon Musk is probably gonna use that surgery thing as excuse, nothing other. I would definitely love to watch billionaires fight each other - not denying this - but it still feels too awkward and weird and probably not gonna happen. Youtubers did these fights many times for likes, subs, money and also gambling sponsors but billionaires don't exactly need those in their lives. I hope Elon Musk is not misleading us all.
Judging from the fact that Elon Musk has had some martial arts and different fighting skills in the past I think you would have stood a fair chance of winning that's if the fight was really going to be held of course his health issue is an excuse that's understandable and no doctor would even advice him to embark on a fight after his surgery, therefore it's either it could be postponed or cancelled total, left for me I think the fight is already ungoing and instead of it being a physical fight, it a stunt pulled by them to know who owns the best social media platform, also just like every other persons billionaires are also allowed to have fun and use any strategies to attract more customers to their business the fact that they're billionaires already doesn't mean they don want extra cash.
 I just  hope Elon Musk's health issue is not very bad and maybe after some months they'll rekindle their Interest in this fight and make a physical fight happen, who would love to watch them throw a punch at themselves, lol atleast it would end the online bragging and a winner would be declared.

Let's talk about the experiences y'all had prior your adoption time ( the time you realized you're supposed to begin gambling and, if possible - take good advantage of the casino itself) ... alright we all know that alot of things could sound so convincing atimes - and that could possibly make anyone go for a highlife or tryout new things beyond Thier capacity -  was there a time you read any article about some multi million wins and the person behind was someone of your age group??
"*Or a time you came across an ad on your cellphone where a person of your age was tryna enable you get on a site, with so many proves then that kinda like inspired you??
"*Or a time you got excitingly/awkwardly teased by a close friend for not wagering on the same game as they did, then it cuts??
"*Or a time you were offered a big tip to bet with(which clearly isn't your own funds?)?
P/s: that might not really be the main reasons you began gambling so hard but I believe that peers got alot of influence too,...many atimes, peeps that illicitly gamble are usually led up that 'em peers; let's learn from your experience too.

Sandra 🧑‍🦰
Honestly speaking you're right and I believe that in most cases, those who got into gambling where influenced by their peers or big wins from peers, for instance I got into gambling during my college days through a colleague in same department of study, he was a successful gambler and know how to make good wins and was the one who also inspired a female friend of mine that convince me to stake on a booking code he gave to her.
 At first i was scared and not convinced because I've heard case of several lose that got people into depression and I didn't want to see myself in same situation but she convinced me using her previous winnings and that was my 1st motivation to stake on a gambling site, however the experience was fun because i won from the game and that was how my gambling journey started it made me to start view football matches and several other sports to understand the game better.
4068  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling experience using loan money on: August 09, 2023, 06:54:52 PM
I do believe that before anybody can have the mind of borrowing money to gamble, he or she is thinking that he might win to pay back the loan and have more profits, hope you get my point? I can't say that the gambler is playing for fun because he is very respirate for either the winning, sometimes what causes this things are selfishness, wanting to get money with all potentials, people who uses this strategy loses and they owe all around their neighborhood
Yes, before that person decides to borrow money, they must think, what if I borrow money? Of course, I can win some money and return it. But that's not what happened because many people have lost all their loan money at the gambling table without being able to pay the money back. They are too eager to win a lot of money so they try to bet big money but the result is against them. This is where someone's selfishness can turn against him and cause him to lose money at the gambling table. If we don't want to experience the same thing, we don't need to borrow money to gamble and are better off using our own money.
If they think, I don't think they will continue of borrowing money. It's not right to only think about the positives. We should think the negative too so that we can't end up in a wrong decision. I don't think those who lost, never pay their loans. They could get in serious trouble if they plan so. Maybe they are given more time to re-pay it. They still can find a job. If they have it already, then they can add a side hustle to earn money which can be used to pay the loans.

Without a loan, losing in gambling is still there, so we must only play with amounts that we can afford to lose or better to play using fake money only if completely avoiding gambling is not possible.
I understand your point @MinMan but I would even be more wise avoid unnecessary debt situation by not even taking the loan at the first place, I mean this is something that involves risk and that should be more reasons that people shouldn't take loans to involve in it, chances of winning is not even 100% guaranteed therefore if you're to take a loan to involve in anything it should be for a business that yield profit and has no or little loss whereby you can easily pay off your debt when you made profit from it.
 Okay imagine using money gotten from loan to gamble and you lose how are you going to pay back, where would you get the money from, they know they could get in serious trouble why risk getting in trouble and also if they can get a job to pay the loan why not wait till they get the job and use the money gotten from it to gamble at least no one would embarrass them or query them to pay their debt because it'd there own money, the only thing is that they'll feel remors, I'm not in support in that act and I'll never advice any to take a loan to gamble.
4069  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: It's safe to say - gambling is a guy thing. on: August 09, 2023, 05:13:03 PM
Gambling used to be a predominantly guy thing, though at recent times, I'm seeing more and more girls also engaging into gambling activities.
I believe gambling will always be dominated by men (whether in the past, now, or in the future).
Gambling is surely made not only for men, but it is basically more suitable for men than women. That's why we call it as a 'men stuff'. Even there are more women to join gambling, they are unlikely to dominate it. Most women prefer to avoid too risky stuff, only men who like the risky stuff. And only a few women think gambling is a fun stuff, most of them probably feel not happy since they hate to lose money.  Grin

Since the history of gambling, there's never been a time that it was dominated by women and I believe it was first introduced by men (Chinese men) if I'm not mistaken and it fact that it is dominated by men would male it easier for men to be introduced into it, men love taking risk even if it involves losing money and that's one thing a woman can't tolerate,a good number of wives would not mind staking their money on something that involves high risk and could be lost easily but would rather support their husband that's successful and made lots of profits from it.
 I've come across a thread that talked about people especially men using gamble as a form of entertainment or to ease stress during their leisures and that's one thing most women won't do, they'll rather focus on other entertainment areas or go on picnic or clubbing with their men for fun, and I've also noticed that a good number of women that were introduced into gambling got introduced by male friends or colleagues
4070  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: This is not Practical on: August 09, 2023, 11:53:55 AM
I have heard the advice that you should only use money you can afford to lose for gambling. I say that this is more theoretical than practical. Literally no one has money that they can afford to lose. I feel that money for gambling is a matter of opportunity cost. You either use the money for gambling or use it to meet a need. If using money one can afford to lose were practical there will be no need for articles on having a gambling budget or bank roll management. Hey gamblers my question is to you now is, the money you currently plan to use for gambling is it money that you can afford to lose?
As a human especially those that are financially stable you must have a spare income left in your savings aside from the money meant for other bills you might have made budget for and that's your spare cash which can be used for spending on outings, entertainment, and fun or even gambling, it quite true that no one willing wants to lose money but since gambling is a game of either lose or profit it's advised that people should use the little percentage of their income that they could lose with feeling too much guilt or remorse and it varies based on an individuals financial status.
 Like I stated earlier the money that's meant to be used for gambling varies for different individuals based on their financial status and if 5,10,20, or 30% of a persons income is okay by them and they won't feel much pain or sadness when they lose then it's fine to say that's their spare case and they're good to use it for gambling

The first time I tried slots in my life, I use 1Eur to make 240Euro, this was my most joyous day in gambling, it was so unexpected, I freaked out and freaking lost my mind, since then I started believing that gambling do have some surprises when you don't expect them.

The saddest Slots spinning day was when I use 300$ to spin for hours and had on 20$ left, that was where I finally decided to cash out, I felt bad for a week before I got over it, that was when I started having a gambling limit in mind.

Till today, I have had some losses and also some fine hits, what about you guys? Do you have any Slots spinning story to share? I'm sure some people are more lucky than many others.
I can relate to your experience cause I had a similar situation when I won my first big money from gambling and mine wasn't from slot games but the joy I had was so much and I couldn't imagine i could win that big from gambling, and that gave me a big motivation in my gambling journey and i understood that in as much a gambling involves risk, if you understand the game and try to lower your risk of losing you could make a fortune from it.
 The world of gambling is not a bad of rose there's loss and theirs gain, if youv avoid gambling recklessly you'll make more profit than lose, I've had several losses but I've never lost a huge money that would make me feel remorseful for days and I'm not looking forwards to that yet because I try every possible means to avoid too risky games and stake wisely with funs i could let go without feeling bad, there's more joy in winning so I try to make sure I get more wins that losses, I heard slot games have a good chances of winning I've never tried it because I'm more of a sports bettor, but I'll love to give it a trial when I make a research and understand the game better.

 It is very unfair that Atlanta would hide the injury status of a player and sell him for a very huge fee, I think they took advantage of Manchester United's quest for a striker in handling the deal because is injury status is enough for United to had bought him for a fair price of about £50 instead of the initial £72, Rasmus Højlund is said to have a stress fracture in the back area and would likely miss about 3matches before he could make his debut Manchester united are a bit comfortable though and are hoping he'll be available to make his debut against Arsenal by September.
 If you watch closely you'll see that younger players are getting lots of injuries lately due to stress factor and it's becoming very common, and I don't blame  Eric Ten Hag for saying he agrees to Rafael Varanes fact that states that players are being pushed to their limits lately, and that the commercial interests is now becoming more important than the quality of football and I think FIFA really needs to look into this and help reduce the stress on this players because lately alot of them are becoming injury prone at very younger age, pedri at Barcelona can't even play 2-3 games without going into an injury spell and some other younger players as well.
4073  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Minimum Age to gamble on: August 08, 2023, 07:44:47 PM
I came across an article How Old Do You Have to Be to Gamble in USA?. In this article, i saw that the minimum age to gamble is between 18 to 21 years. I wonder if the online casino do follow this minimum age for gambling.

Yes, the gambling sites have our age data through the KYC documents. Do they ever restrict anyone who is underage to not to gamble?
Also, if we find any site allowing minors to gamble, can legal action be taken against them?


In general the minimum age to gamble in most country is from 18+ but however the online gambling platforms has got a disadvantage when it comes to that because not all platform have adopted the kyc policy making it very possible for minors to gamble freely without the notice of their guidance, this is very wrong because it could have a bad effect on such persons if they begin to get addicted at that age, i think all gambling platforms needs to adopt the use of KYC to avoid minors from participating in online gambling activities, if this is not implemented it could ruin the bright future of those young people that's been forced to go make quick money from those platform out of peer pressure, they could start stealing funds from their parents to satisfy their addictions if they eventually get addicted, also some of these young people are not very matured and would want to misuse the money they won on  unnecessary things.

Tottenham will face Barcelona tonight for the Joan Gamper trophy while they are getting ready got the match but Tottenham won't use Harry Kane for this match and it seems Kane will be absent against Barcelona, while some fans and people are thinking about Kane's transfer to Baytern Munich and they think Kane is not going to play because he is going to leave Tottenham soon to another team, but the real reason for Kane to be absent in this game is because of taking a rest before the game between Tottenham and Brentford.


The match is in progress and the first half has just finished, and the current score is Tottenham winning 1-2 over Barcelona and Tottenham's 2 goals were created by Oliver Skipp in the 24th and 36th minutes. And Barcelona's goal was created by Lewandowski in the 3rd minute.
So far Barcelona has dominated the game and continues to try to score goals because it is one goal behind Tottemham, it looks like the second half of the match will be more interesting. And also this will be the last game between Barcelona and Tottenham in this year's pre-season game.
The game is getting to the 70th minute and Tottenham still leading 1-2 against Barcelona shows that there's an improvement in their style of play than the previous season and I'm impressed with the brace from Oliver skip and since Harry Kane is not included in the squad it might mean that a move is very imminent to Bayern Munich and Daniel levy could finally accept an offer from him.
 Im not going to conclude that Tottenham won't regret his departure if a moves comes through with the current lead against barca because this is just a pre-season match and they're not going to depend on a midfielder the whole season for goals and against top EPL teams they might not  stand a chance having Richarlison in that position, if a move is becoming close they definitely have to start looking for a good replacement that would come close to getting the goals like kane if the manager wants to have a good season with his new team.
4075  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: August 08, 2023, 07:13:10 PM


In history, Real Madrid has never started a new season without the number 9 and this speculation has resurfaced ahead of the 23/24 La Liga season which is about to begin. If we look at so many legends from Real Madrid who use the jersey number 9 and even at the start of Cristiano Ronaldo's arrival at the Santiago Bernabeu, he had the chance to use this jersey number. Now the next strongest candidate for number 9 is Kylian Mbappe and we are still waiting to see if this transfer saga will run smoothly before the transfer market closes. However, if no player uses the number 9 jersey next season, then this will be the first time this has happened at Real Madrid. Roll Eyes

This doesn't bother me at all. And if they don't sign someone to wear number 9 for the first time at the start of a season and want to retain that record, they can use any of the existing players to play or wear the number 9 depending on when they'll obtain the perfect 9 for the club. Mbappe to Real Madrid is a matter of time, and I don't think Real Madrid is pressing hard for him because they already know the player's next destination is Real Madrid and have turned down larger offers that came for him. The transfer window is rapidly approaching closing date, and I see no indication that Mbappe will join Real Madrid by next season, maybe he’s ready to stay back till his contract expires before joining Real Madrid.
If Joselu prove himself worthy and having good performance scoring a good number of goals and possibly Hattrick in several competitions then the coach might have a second taught and seem it right for him to wear the number 9 Jersey, their a possibility that Mbappe could move to Madrid this summer and with the new punishment given to him I see him forcing a transfer out of PSG or forcefully terminate his contract with them but however him having the number 9 jersey at Realmadrid still depends on whether Madrid would get him either as PSG player for a very huge price or getting him for free, but I think the price tag on him by PSG won't be considered by ReaMadrid, they set a very huge price to scare top European clubs away knowing it only a Saudi club that would comfortably meet up that demand without breaking a FFP rule and Mbappe wouldn't want to move their leaving him an option to train remain in PSG and training with the youth team not minding if they'll lose him for free, what a way to punish a player.

I could go on and on, but I think you guys get my point. All of these belong in the gambling discussion section. Let's not leave it up to moderators to move them for you or for people to report them to get them moved to the correct place. Just post in the correct section and be done.

This thread might belong in Meta but I want to make sure people see it in this section. I'll move the thread before I log off for the day.


For those of you who do not know how to move a thread. Scroll down to the bottom of the page, on left hand side you'll see move topic. Click move topic then choose the correct section. In most cases for this section you want economy-gambling discussion.



So yeah, i join voice with yahoo to encourage us all to endeavor to always create our gambling discussion topics in the right board, which is the gambling discussion board, any thread that is not casino related but gambling related should always go to the gambling discussion board, the gambling board is only meant for gambling casinos, and casino related topics alone.
Pay attention to this statement
It's a good thing you created this topic atleast to enlighten people about how to post the rightful  thread in the appropriate section, I've noticed this for a while but since the moderators didn't complain I didn't see any reason to talk about it, i think some of these posters are new members, I don't mean that it's generally the new members that make such mistakes only everyone is prone to mistakes but atlest this thread would help them take correction and do it right thing
 You did a very good job in discovering different errors and giving corrections thereby teaching members of the forum to different between the gambling  and gambling discussion board when making a post, and I believe every topic starter that fall victim of these act would come across this thread and take corrections.

many gambling addicts have lost their minds because their desire to continue gambling overpowers their common sense, hence the importance of "gambling responsibly"
Ironically when there are people who cannot control addiction in gambling, this is just a small example of many gamblers that ended worse and there are some who end their lives because they are in debt when gambling. Gambling is responsible when you are not addicted and when it cannot be controlled, in my opinion it is difficult to be responsible for gambling choices.

The problem is how you put gambling, if done only for fun in spare time is not a problem. But when gambling is done as a substitute for permanent work, this will be far more problematic and it is very difficult to control, the decision is in each of us and as much as possible avoid addiction in gambling.
Some peroson don't even know they're addicted and pick offense whenever they try to correct them, and if they don't get help at this stage it becomes very serious and hard to be controlled it is the dubious act by such people that makes some people condemn gambling and tag it as a sin or improper act, there's no doubt that reckless gambling have ruined many lives but people should understand that it's effect is not sane on everyone because their are some people that gamble responsibly and have made a fortune through it.
 There are many factors that cause people to becomes addicts but my focus is not on that but rather how to help people that's become addicted to it, yes it in our best interest to help people from getting to addicted and turn to point of these madness, like suicide, theft fraud, etc left for me i feel showing them love and constant education concerning effect of addiction also therapy would go along way to help bettors from becoming addicts.

We live in a society where people have different views about something and these views could be drawn based on different constituent like personal sentiment, religion, ideology and experience. And speaking of gamble there are those that view it as an irresponsible activity to embark on and whoever is into it is tag as irresponsible guy, for some it beyond being irresponsible but a sin something that is evil,  while some others out of an ugly experience of a loved one that got ruined by it due to extreme addiction.

These factors has made a number of gamblers to keep their gambling habit a secret doing all they could not to let friends and family  know they gamble. And it does seem like they ain't proud of what they're doing.

But why continue in what you're not proud of by keeping it secret cause maybe you're worried about what people may say, how their thoughts about your person might change. Or how you might loose ties with someone you hold dear to. And many other reasons that follows.

Those that keep their gambling habit a secret is it that they're not proud of what they are doing?.
Different individuals have their various opinions about gambling activities and just like you state it might be based on religion, an awful experience or their personal ideology and religious people would tell you that it's a sin because it could lead someone to stealing, cheating or other illegal activities that they feel is a crime against their religion and Also let's say for instance a parent lot his/her child due to gambling experiences such person is likely going to condemn the act based of the bad effect it  caused them due to the death of their child.
 
 All thanks to technology that's made it possible for people who are not proud of the act maybe due to the fear of being caught by religious brothers or afraid of losing ties with loved ones to gamble at the comfort of their home with their various devices without being caught or noticed by anyone, the things is that it not like they're not proud of the act but are scared of being condemned by those who discriminate gambling activities and would rather do it secretly.

PSG officially introduced its new striker from Benfica, namely Goncalo Ramos, on loan for the next season. It seems that PSG doesn't want to make it permanent right away because they want to see first whether their performance can be consistent or not when contributing to the team. Even so, there is a buy option at the end of the season worth 65 million euros plus add-ons of 15 million euros if PSG are sure of his services.

It seems that PSG are very confident about leaving Mbappe for next season's competition and the arrival of Goncalo Ramos is certainly expected to have a significant impact on the club. With this, it remains only to wait for the development of other new players such as Dembele and Kolo Muani who are currently in the negotiation process.
if you look at the history of Goncalo Ramos performance last season he has very good liveliness in attack and the quality of his play is also very interesting always has opportunities to find gaps to be able to score goals and maybe this is PSG step to build a stronger team without Mbappe or you could say preparing a stronger team before Mbappe left. its proven that if Mbappe does not become the main player in several matches, PSG is actually trying to use other players and now they are even looking for a new striker, even though on loan, but Im very sure that if Goncalo Ramos performs well at PSG next season, PSG officials will make it permanent after that they officially sell Mbappe .
€65 million for PSG does not matter if its in terms of the form they're getting because there no doubt that this Gancalo is a very good talent.
That's right, even I still remember his prowess when he recorded a hat-trick when defending Portugal against Switzerland in last year's world cup. In addition to other statistics last season defending Benfica, he also scored a total of 27 goals in all competitions and is on the list of top scorers number 2 in the Portuguese league. So PSG have chosen the right striker to replace Mbappe and as long as he can produce the same results or even more than last season, then PSG will not hesitate to entrust him again next year. Of course, PSG hopes that Mbappe will be sold soon this summer so that they can get additional funds or can be used to buy Goncalo Ramos permanently from Benfica.
PSG have got themselves a very good/ proven striker that has a good scoring record and will likely replicate such figure or even higher than that now that they've got two good wingers to assist him from the flanks but I think they're getting him on loan because they don't want to make a regrettable mistake and maybe keep him on trail then possibly sign him by Jan if his performance seems convincing, just like the situation of weghorst at Manchester United, who was bought onloan but couldn't prove himself and was sent back to his formal club maybe that's same step PSG are taking in Ramos situation.
 But honestly I feel so sad about the Mbappe situation that a player of such quality would be punished in such manner, training with the youth side of the team, because of his refusal to sign a contract and having a secret talks with Realmadrid, they gave him and options to sign a new deal or train with the youth team until a bid comes in a according to the news it is said that PSG wants about £250   or would wait and lose him for free when his contract expires.
4080  Economy / Gambling / Re: Enough to consider a casino scam? on: August 08, 2023, 05:08:32 PM
Hi friends, I have some questions for you guys about online casinos

What will you do if you don't know that a online casino will ask you for KYC after winning over 8,000$ on the platform? And you now manage to process with the verification and they failed to pass you? Can you consider such a casino a scam?

Also, imagine you get attracted to an online casino because of the bonuses they offer and you open an account and make your first deposit then you didn't receive the promised bonus, is this an act of scam or not?

I am trying to solve such an issue for someone very close to me and that the complaint he gave, I have no answer than maybe the bonus was canceled already before he made the deposit or there was a minimum deposit requirement.

Any other reasons?
  I don't want to jump into a conclusion that your friend got scamed by the casino, because maybe he's failed to complete his KYC process or didn't do it the right way or submit the required document hence the denial of withdrawal  $8000 is a big  money and  some casinos have it in their policy for proof of ownership of account upon withdrawal of big money and when you fail to convince them with an appropriate document they'll deny you access to your funds, so it's best for him to try again  and at do the KYC properly using the appropriate document.
 Also those rewards and bonuses are strategies by casinos to lure new customers to sign up them and they come with tasks most times and when you fail to carry out those task completely then you stand a lesser chance of getting the reward, but in a case where you've performed all the necessary tasks or due what's required for a reward and not granted it, then it's best to seek the attention of their customer care service instead of complaining and labeling them as a scam.
