I dont know you guys but i feel something like disguts with all this transfer and money spend with no so much sense.

In other things with this transfer Neymar its again the most moneymaker player from transfer ever no?
The money they used to sign players are being recovered, if not they wouldn't have been spending it. They get them back from ticket money, because of that particular player, views will increase. They get it back from sales of jersy. They get it back from other deals. The social media influence of that player. This is the season of high price of players, so let's just deal with it and I don't think it is reversing any time and I assure you that these players deserve it.

And don't get me started on sports betting. Predicting the outcome of sports events isn't a strategy; it's a roll of the dice. Sure, you might guess right once, twice, or even a dozen times. But it only takes one upset to wipe out all your gains
well, in conclusion that all types of bets in gambling will not be able to provide regular income or fixed daily income because even in any type of bet in the long run you will definitely lose too because in casino games the longer we bet we will lose because the house edge always wins and also sports betting, indeed in one month sometimes someone always wins and earns, but in a few days a streak of losses or a large loss will definitely occur because you feel confident because within a month you win in a row after that add up the amount you hope to win in greater numbers a lot but its a shame the opposing team made a comeback and ended up losing.
From all ramifications it has been proven that no one can have a consistent winning in casino. Apart from the house edge factor that makes the Casino win on the long run, there is no how the gambler will be hundred percent lucky every time that he is gambling. That is why we have the win days and we have the bad days of a gambler.
Whenever you have your win day, you use it judiciously and exit gambling not to turn your winnings into losses while trying to overstay in a particular gambling session or trying to make gambling your sole source of income.

This will be the closing match of the first week in the EPL, I don't think it will be difficult for Man United to get three points. Mason Mount, Onana, Rasmus Hojlund will make their first debuts with Man United, I think Ten Hag will play all three in the meeting against Wolves at Old Trafford.

The last five meetings between the two have placed Man United as the favourites, winning four and losing one time. For tomorrow United will start their positive trend in this new season after many changes in the squad.
The match you mean will happen today, not tomorrow. And I'm also sure that Manchester United will win at home against Wolves, because besides the squad changes at Manchester United this season. Wolves themselves are also not such a strong team that there is a possibility for Manchester United to win at home today, apart from that from the results of their previous meeting it is also clear that Manchester United is far superior to Wolves.
This match is very easy for Man United. Wolves are still very weak in football and they are very weak against Man United.  Due to which this match is very easy for Man United. Wolves have not been playing well in football so far.  Wolves do get chances in various leagues but are not able to beat their opponents and win most of the matches. The same is going to happen in today's match with Man United.  So there will not be much excitement in this match.  The game is most enjoyable when it is played to the bone and is played with two equally strong teams.
We cannot confidently say that wolves are not good in a season that they have not started. Nobody has the right to judge any club with the performance of their last season. Many things have changed, either in the side of the players or in the side of the couch or in the side of the management. So the strength of wolves cannot be determined unless they play their first second and even third match. Meanwhile, you should not forget that Manchester United are known for starting their season on a very poor note. So anything can happen this night.

When you are addicted to gambling you will not feel it.  Because then gambling will seem like a good thing to you and you will feel normal for everything. Gambling is not bad or harmful until it becomes addictive.  But when it turns into addiction, it is very harmful for him.  And then Quit  gambling becomes very difficult for him. So before he gets addicted to gambling, he has to control himself from it, then it will be much easier for him to quit gambling.
It is true what you say because when we are already experiencing gambling addiction, we will not feel that we are addicted to gambling. We will take it for granted and gambling is an activity that we already consider a routine activity like working or doing something else. But to stop gambling is not as easy as we think because it requires a lot of things, including building a new habit where this is the most difficult thing. The difficulty we will face may be laziness which will make us not want to do new things, which is a good thing to start preventing gambling addiction.
Quitting gambling is easy only when it is not become addiction. The best form of self-discipline is when you understand that you are gambling more often than you used to before, you will have to devise a means to give less attention to gambling at that very time. It is very easy to control your habit. But when you refused to reduce the attention, you give to gambling it passes that stage and enters into the stage of addiction. It will be very difficult for you to quit gambling and it will be like starting a new way of life according to what you said above. So the best thing to do is when you discover that yourelf or your friend is gambling more often than normal you caution yourself or your friend as the case may be.

Didn't have the patience to read your wall of text except for this last part which cracked me up. Did you even bother doing your research before posting these absurd statements shill? I doubt it.

Go check their negative trust ratings carefully and you will understand(If you have a brain) that several victims were scammed of thousands of bucks.

Do not even bother to try to reason with someone who is likely a shill. They may not even know they definition of selective scam or selective fraud. It is all about trying to keep having some of the alleged legitimacy while at the same time abusing of your power as a casino to steal people off their money through as much time as possible and stalling victims into exhaustion until they give up and stop trying to contact "customer service".

It is the same story every time a victim shows up here asking for any kind of help.



Selective scamming is the worst type of scam. That is the reason I hate it. It gives the scammers the opportunity to scam for a very long period of time, maybe until they are tired of scamming. Exit scam is preferable to me, because once they are gone they are gone for good.Unless they restart with a new domain. I am not in anyway support any kind of scam, but I am trying to emphasis how much I hate selective scamming. It is only in selective scamming that there will be glaring evidences of scam but some other people who were lucky not to be selected in the scam batch will be arguing that there is no scam or scam attempt of any kind.

Duelbits may have a reputable standing now, but what guarantees their fortitude in the future? The threat of data breaches, hacking attempts, and internal compromises is very real! The economics of it all just dont add up. In their greed to maximize profits, casinos may well be playing Russian roulette with their very survival. How do we know our data is safe? We dont. So why risk it?
How come you single out Duelbits here while casino that collects data including Stake which you are promoting is prone to data breach. Also casino usually use a 3rd party service to conduct KYC as requirements by the law.

There’s always a threat of data breach on all service eve with the government site. At the end of the day, it’s all about trust on the service or else stay away if you are afraid of potential leak of your credentials.
I do not know why he singled out Duelbits. Could it be the OP mentioned Duelbits in the starting topic? But when you talk about casinos, KYC and anonymity. It is not referring to any particular casino be it the one you promote or not. The truth is that once you have given out your data, you no longer control it, you will be at the mercy of the company or casino that holds your data.
So it is so much related to trust and reputation. You must be able to trust a particular casino you promote. Both Stake and Duelbits have nice reputation in this forum

Finally, the rumors about who the injured goalkeeper will replace Courtois have received an answer and Real Madrid have announced their recruitment via their social media. He is the Chelsea keeper Kepa who is on loan for a season to replace Courtois and I think this is a pretty good signing. There were rumors that Bounou from Sevilla was Real Madrid's target, but considering that Sevilla wanted a permanent deal for Bounou, this made Real Madrid discourage him. Now Kepa will become a pillar for Real Madrid and of course his battle with Lunin for the main place will soon be carried out.
Real Madrid bouncing back to LA Liga with so much fire this new season, already got the good quality players that would upgrade the club's performance. Carlo Ancelotti is satisfied to work with the new players, he ensured he filled in every gap left in his squad. However his team got a little bit challenges this season, with injuries hitting his crucial players, but he fixed it. Real Madrid signed Arrizagbala Kepa on loan from chelsea, it's very important Los Blancos gets a replacement for Thibaut Courtois and they did, the Belgium international was ruled out for 6-7 months due to a severe injury he sustained in his left knee.
Congratulations to Real Madrid for finally getting a world class goalkeeper that will continue to stand in between the sticks for the club after their first choice goalkeeper Courtois has been sidelined for the rest of the season with an ACL injury.
With the signing of Kepa, Real Madrid has found solution to one of the two positions in the club that they seriously need to sign players that are capable of replacing. Now they have to sign a world class striker that'll replace the outgone Karim Benzema to have a complete team that'll challenge for trophies this season.

Currently the World Cup has entered the semi-finals, and tomorrow the first semi-final match will take place between Spain vs Sweden, even though Spain is the favorite to win this tournament and Sweden is only fourth as the favorite for the championship but Sweden cannot underestimate their step up to the semifinals it's quite surprising because it managed to get rid of other favorite teams like the United States and Japan, and this will be a very balanced match, and Sweden who appeared very aggressive when beating Japan will probably be a problem for Spain, but I think this will be a match that must be determined by penalty shootout.

Maybe many people think that this tournament is not interesting, compared to the matches in the men's section of course there is a difference in the quality of the matches, but several matches in this tournament show that there are many changes in women's football, and it must be remembered that women's football adopts the same things in rules such as the duration of the game including extra time so they play for the same length of time as men so there is a bright prospect that women's football will be interesting to follow in the future, because of course in training and fitness preparation they do the same thing so they can last a very long game.
Judging by the teams that have qualified for the FIFA Women's World Cup tournament, I think we might have a new winner of the competition. Spain and England looks like the teams that'll make it to the final of the this edition.
 The Australian women's team who would play their semi final game against their England counterparts I think might pull the a big surprise if not carefully tacked by English women. Sweden on their other side isn't also a team to write off making the semi final matches a tough one for the four teams involved.

So Neymar is being offered a lower amount compared to his existing deal by Al Hilal? I checked the details and looks like his salary has actually gone up. Al Hilal is offering £138 million for a two-year contract. PSG's deal was worth €222 million for 5 years. So factoring in everything, his salary has gone up in the vicinity of 2x. But when compared to the deals being offered by Saudi clubs to players such as Kylian Mbappe and Karim Benzema, this amount looks low for me. Anyway, Neymar has already finished the negotiations and will be moving to Saudi soon.

Not all the player get the same offer and they are offered based on their game in the past.Al Hilal had give the offer to Neymar is half of the payment of other player offer for one year.So it may made Neymar to get into the middle of the decision.PSG deal of 222 million for five years mean 44 million per year is little compared to 67.5 million and the duration itself the difference.The 222 million offer for the five year,So he had assured for the five year term.The new offer is like 2x for the two year period.Now he need to decide the correct offer.The offer for the Mbappe is huge as compared to many player from the Saudi Arabia Club.The ultimate aim of Saudi Arabia Club is to take all the player to their game.
Neymar's quality and status will definitely need something huge to convince him to leave European football and accept the offer of joining a Saudi Arabian club and that's why Al Hilal management went all out by offering a huge deal for the Brazilian which was convincing enough to make him join the club.
If he's finally signed to the club, he'll bring experience and quality that'll help the club become as competitive as possible
4390  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: August 14, 2023, 01:18:46 PM
True, looking at the history of the last few seasons none of the Serie A clubs have done back to back because they always failed to win the championship after they got the scudetto in the previous season so in this case it will raise skepticism for Napoli and that I think is quite natural.

But of course this will only be speculation because the proof is still not happening considering Serie A will start in a few days.
It will be interesting to see if there are some clubs back in the mix eventually because this season the fight seems to be gone and Napoli can comfortably cruise to the Scudetto.
Of course, competition in Serie A this season is even more interesting to watch because several teams can put strong pressure on Napoli to defend the Scudetto title. I think Napoli will face a tough test in defending the Scudetto title, especially since they are in a position left by Spalletti because he chose to resign after successfully leading Napoli to win the trophy last season.

So to become champions again, it will require stronger concentration for them in facing their opponents this season.  like Inter Milan, whose squad depth is getting stronger, of course their renaissance must be watched out for by Napoli this season.
TBH, I also have thoughts like yours, is it really time for Napoli to lose the Scudetto title and be replaced by another team like Inter Milan. lets look at Napoli current condition as unconvincing even though this is not a guarantee but from looking at this situation in the long term it seems very difficult to defend the Scudetto title except when Spalletti was still there to be relied on to train Napoli players to become strong again and stay at the top of the standings.
on the one hand Inter Milan are currently a little stronger even though they will appear without Lukaku at least they still have other reliable players this season. but we all see later whether all of this is just a wrong prediction or will it come true.
From the performance of the Italian teams in the final weeks of last season, Inter Milan looks like the club who would might win the Italian scudetto this season but that doesn't mean that Napoli can't retain the title.
Napoli has done exceptionally well in keeping many members if the team that won the Serie A title last season including their talisman and highest goalscorer Victor Osimhen and that I think will help them in their title defense
4391  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: August 14, 2023, 01:07:13 PM
Mbappe's decision to reject the contract extension I think was a good decision, yes even though it led to some drama that happened as we see now. I actually wanted to see him do that last season, where he canceled joining Real Madrid, I mean, if only he chose Real Madrid then and did not choose money, then the situation would be different now.
Now he has to stay longer, considering his contract is about to expire. He has to be more patient with the drama that's going on, with the news that he's not going to be in the squad, and other news that's not good about him.
If you look at the drama that Kylan Mbappe made in the transfer window last season when he turned down an offer to join Real Madrid, it was a decision that I think was quite a shame because if Mbappe had joined Real Madrid at that time, He would most likely have already tasted the Champions League trophy 2021/2022. So this season he again made drama by refusing a contract extension with PSG which made the situation of dispute with PSG again heating up in this transfer window. But at this point he seemed to realize that his behavior could destroy his career so he made the decision to return to training with the main squad.

It is likely that Mbappe will put an end to his actions and choose to stay until the end of this season before he joins Real Madrid next season on a free transfer.

I don't like Mbappe's behavior at all. He is very selfish and fierce. He is ending his own honor. PSG management wants to renew the contract with Mbappe. But Mbappe won't do it. Now PSG management wants to sell Mbappe to Mbappe's favorite club Madrid, but Mbappe will not leave PSG. I am very annoyed by the Mbappe news. I have never seen a footballer as shameless as Mbappe.

PSG are not interested in keeping Neymar in the team. Because his fitness is not good and lower wages are high. And PSG are eager to sell Neymar. I have never known Neymar to be as brazen as Mbappe. For a while we heard rumors that Neymar would go to Barcelona. And now we are hearing that he will probably go to a club in Saudi Arabia. But Neymar can be as brazen as Mbappe and stay at PSG until 2016 and take high wages. I would say Mbappe should learn etiquette and manners from senior players.
Kylian Mbappe will lose the kind of respect he commands from many Paris Saint Germaine fans and even neutrals who's got so much respect for the Frenchman probably because of his scintillating performances on the pitch and that's because he'll prove those who has always accused him that his loyalty is based on the amount of financial returns he gets and not because of his passion for the club.
Reports has it that PSG chairman is trying to persuade the player to extend his contract by offering mouthwatering deals despite the the fact that the player had initially made public his intentions to leave the club and from all indications, it looks like the France national team captain is gonna accept the offer and extend his contract with the club
4392  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: August 14, 2023, 12:53:41 PM
Neymar is set to undergo his medical examination in Paris within the next few hours, before finalizing a 2-season contract with Al-Hilal. This transfer is expected to bring in just under €100 million for PSG, including bonuses. Following his medical, Neymar is anticipated to make his way to Riyadh sometime this week. I'm not surprised by this transfer, since the rumors first emerged, I was already convinced that Neymar would move to the Arab league, as his high salary makes it impossible for European clubs to sign him.
It's nice to see Neymar team up with the likes of  Ruben Neves, Kalidou Koulibaly and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic at Al-Hilal, It obvious that a mouthwatering offer worth €100 million paid to PSG is too massive to be rejected by the club considering lack of game time of Neymar Jr due to injury in PSG and lives a lavish lifestyle in Paris, though he is a very skillful and talented player if fit, it's now obvious that all the Saudi Arabian bound European based players are after money even players who are not close to retirement like Neymar couldn't resist the juicy contract offered by Al-Hilal which I believe will be more than what he earns in PSG.
I knew that after losing the Arab club championship cup to their arch rival Al-Hilal that they'll definitely get new signings that would help strengthen the club in preparation of the season against rivalry teams and that why they've decision to get Neymar though I feel  the money they offered is too much for an injury prone player that can play for 2months without sustaining and injury neymar is a skillful player and would want to play and entertaining kind of football and dribbles alot and that style of play attracts injury.
 I don't think at the moment most top European club would come for him due to his much injury spells  and he knew he won't get much praying time at PSG that's why he decided to seize the opportunity and move to where he could get playing time, also the kind of money he'll receive is enough to make him change his mind and decide to move to Al-Hilal.
Al Hilal having seen that most of the top Saudi Arabian clubs has strengthened their teams by signing high profile European based players knows that they need to sign few more European big stars in other to competitive enough to face their opponents and signing Neymar will be a nice decision to achieve their aim.
Neymar would bring great quality to the Saudi club if his transfer is finalized. His only problem which has always plagued him is the constant injuries he does suffer but if he can find a way to solve that issue, he'll make a great signing for the Saudi club
4393  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: August 14, 2023, 12:46:28 PM
Mbappe shouldn't stay at PSG any longer. He seemed decisive when he said that he wasn't going to extend his contract with the team. He should stand behind his words.

PSG have been believing that Mbappe has already reached an agreement with Real Madrid verbally. Technically I don't expect them to be able to convince them to stay longer from now on. They can just have one last season with him and then Mbappe leaves. Real Madrid haven't even signed anyone for their centre-forward area. They must be allocating a place for Mbappe there already. They are going to be able to sign him in only six months for free. I can't wait to see what will happen in January.  Grin

I think it is always the same isn't it? Wink Khelaifi knocks on his door again and says "hey what do you think about staying one more year and we double your bonus?". As we know Mbappe very well by now, I changed my mind and now think that he will stay for another year. If it is true that they want to increase his salary once more in exchange for his signature to avoid that he can leave as a free agent next season, it is possible that he will do it. But then his hand money from Real Madrid would significantly decrease since they would have to pay a transfer fee that otherwise could have been his hand money. Mbappe has a calculator in his hand all day long.
From the reports that's been emanating from different sports tabloids in main land Europe, it seems like Kylian Mbappe will extend his contract with Paris Saint Germaine. He joined the first team to training yesterday and that's another strong indication that he might stay back at PSG.
That being said, if Kylian Mbappe extends his contract with PSG once again after initially making public of his decision to leave it'll somehow define him as a player whose decisions are very flexible and can be easily influenced  with money. PSG owner chairman Nasser Al-Khelaïfi  knows Kylian Mbappe's weakness and might make him change his mind once again with big financial offers

Yes, what Chelsea showed with their new coach in this match brought a breath of fresh air and a glimmer of hope for them to be able to perform better in the next match.
Chelsea showed the better performance in the yesterday's game than they did in most of their games last season. If the team had been the complete team that played in the preseason without any injuries to the key player that scored good goals for them (Christopher Nkunku), Chelsea would have won because they threatened the Liverpool goal more than once. The new coach has done well so far, the players are more confident now in themselves and how they play. The was also concern about the captain of the team Reece James, but he did not look injured to me, and I do not think that he was removed from the game due to injury.
Its not too easy to sum up the performance in the first game and we can not compare Chelsea performance last season with this season based only on the first game at the start of the season. we have to wait for a few games and then we can see if Pochettino will be successful in getting Chelsea back up after slumping last season and even though several new players have been recruited, there is little doubt that Chelsea will get stronger this season.
yesterday's match seemed very strong when Chelsea tried to defend and attack Liverpool goal but that does not mean Liverpool did not show their strength, its just that this first match maybe Liverpool just tried to survive and see the strategy Pochettino used to beat in the upcoming match.
Yeah I agree with you when you say a team's overall performance shouldn't be summed up by their first performance of the season. However, I think Chelsea's performance yesterday is testament of the fact that the club has really improved since Mauricio Pochettino took the managerial position of the club.
There are a lot of positives to take from that game and I think Chelsea are gonna have a better season judging by their performance yesterday.
4395  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: August 13, 2023, 10:54:40 PM
It's true, Chelsea played well today against Liverpool and they seem more focused from a strategic point of view. Pochettino seems quite capable of improving the quality of Chelsea's game this season if he can give his all for the team. I know Pochettino needs time to get his players to play at their best, but so far his strategy has been working.
In today's match of Chelsea against Liverpool, Pochettino's strategy of playing Chelsea in a 3-5-2 formation truly paid off for him. In their first match of the season, when they haven't had much time to get to know one another on the field of play, Chelsea's performance was good, and dominating over Liverpool. I wondered how Pochettino was able able to pull on such a performance with the new players of Chelsea that are yet to find their place in the premier league matches.

Pochettino has demonstrated during his short time at Chelsea that he is capable of returning Chelsea to its previous status as a title contender. In his first game in charge of Chelsea, he was able to have a draw match with Liverpool to secure a point. This demonstrates that Pochettino has the ability to develop and bring out the best in Chelsea players. The preseason match and the training that Chelsea players had with Pochettino weren't in vain.
Chelsea's performance today against Liverpool is a demonstration of the fact that Chelsea has significantly improved since the arrival of Mauricio Pochettino as the manager of the club.
For the first time since Thomas Tuchel left Chelsea, the club played like a team with tactical discipline and style. I would be very surprise not to see Chelsea finishing the season in the top four position if they continue to play the kind of beautiful football like the did today at Stamford Bridge. Mauricio Pochettino has indeed changed the mentality of the players and there are out give their best this season.

Schmeichel is reported to be joining Chelsea after Kepa's departure. Actually Chelsea have newly signed Robert Sanchez who is also a decent goalkeeper. But they did this while there wasn't anything on the table like Kepa leaves the team. Therefore this situation might mean that they will sign another goalkeeper.

Schmeichel is a very experienced goalkeeper. He is 36 years old though but he can still do a good work when he is given chances. There would be some nice competition between Sanchez and him in this situation. Sanchez's point against Liverpool wasn't much impressive as well by the way.
The likely departure of Kepa came as a suprise but i later discovered that Realmadri chose him due to his age and as a possibile replacement for courtious in case he leaves in the near future and i think Chelsea  made the perfect choice when they Choose Roberto Sanchez to replace mendy, he's had experience in the league while praying for Brighton and is also a proven keeper and i think he's going to help Chelsea alot, even though  his performance against Liverpool wasn't all impressive but we all know how good he could be when it comes to making good saves.
 Instead of chelsea to go for Schmeichel they would had gone for degea who's a better, a bit younger and cheaper option and would be very beneficial to their club in making good saves that might even force the coach to think of making him the number one choice, just that he might not want to come in as a second choice but i think he could give it a second thought of wanting to come back to the English Premier League if they had gone for him.
I wasn't surprised about the reports of Kepa's proposed move away from the Stamford Bridge because I knew that he'll definitely not be feel comfortable to remain at Chelsea after signing of Robert Sanchez.
Real Madrid's goalkeeper Courtois has been sidelined for the rest of the season because of his ACL injury and as a Spaniard, Kepa looks certain to join them

Limiting the internet access wont be that effective because parents cant control their children's internet surfing activity 24/7.
There are some ways for children to trick the limit by using VPN or other things.
What is more important to do is to educate our children about it, direct communication from heart to heart will be better.
I'm as a father do not limit the internet access of my son but I tell him regularly about any possible negative effects that may come from the internet.
Not only about gambling but about many other things as well such as porn, drugs, investment, even about crypto trading.


By finding the number of devices connected on the wifi,the parent control the people.When you find the more connection from your children,you need to do monitor the children.Because we don't know whether they pplaying of gambling using the VPN and face KYC.If they win the game is no problem,in case they loss all the money in your bank account using your debit card.Then you will get into bad economic situation,If you save some money in your bank for their future.It may leads to loss,So it's more important to monitor the children at their younger ages.

For that kind of reason, parent needed to monitor the activities of their children, even it's not that young but still they have to do their responsibilities to make sure that they are aware of whatever things their kids are involved, it will help them also not to engage to any activities that may cause them to think about committing suicide, you can avoid things to happen if you know whatever the things that your kids are involved, you can act quickly and guide them to the right path of life.
In as much as parents are always held accountable for bad decisions that are taken by their wards, I also have to state the fact that most of these kids does go extra miles to make sure they don't keep up with the legacy and teachings of their parents  and most times it happens immidiately these kind of kids are admitted in to tertiary institutions where they have the freedom to live their lives the way they want to do.
Personally I don't think there's anything that can be done to control these kind of young teenagers who has already made up their minds to live the kind of life that pleases them

As they say, prevention is better than cure.
This is not for gambling. For gambling, usually what you are seeing is the winning. Taking of risk is what gambling is, if you are not a risk taker then maybe gambling is not for you and maybe that is the sense that prevention can be apt but as a gambling then you are only heading for the winning. Most gamblers don't see limitation to what they want to bet until they are finished with it and the result is out to their favour or not. There are no prevention if you are a gambler, it is only those who don't gamble will run away after losing.
What @Gozie51 said is true because when someone gambles, he can afford to risk losing, and actually, he already knows that his chances of winning might not be too great. But because he took that risk, he still gambled, and gamblers just want to bet so they don't see the rest. So they think what will happen next is something they can think about later after gambling. And if they don't dare to take the risk of losing, they should stop gambling and relax at home, enjoying the atmosphere. Thus, they don't have to think about the risks of gambling or other things.

Yes because for gamblers, it is take the risk and have the chance to some profit and if you are not taking the risk then you are not preventing anything. You are only preventing something by avoiding it and that is the reason I have said it is not for a gambler to prevent it, be it the risk or something else. If you are a gambler and you have come to gamble, all you have to do is to gamble as you can bear and in order words you are gambling anyway and you are not preventing it only to reduce your risk.
When it comes to gambling, there are rules guiding gambling companies and agents across the globe and these rules though differs in different nations but one of the commonest of the rules which I think is applicable to almost all the nations where gambling exist is the rule that gamblers must reach a certain number of age before they can use the betting platforms and that means for you to gamble, you must be a grown adult.
So that's why I think that nobody's to be blamed by the misfortunes of any gambler apart from the gambler. Betting agents do not force anyone to bet with them and shouldn't blamed for what happens after betting

Well, I gamble online, and almost nobody knows that I gamble except for some of my internet friends whom I have never met. People in my country see gambling as bad because gambling addiction leads to doing wrong things. At least, this is what they think because we have seen many people sell their assets to gamble, and they end up losing them.

I gamble online, and I never share this with people in real life. The only exception is my brother who gambles as well, and he is unlikely to share it with anyone else. So, nobody knows that I gamble.

It's not the wrong one,you just want to keep the secret of gambling is your opinion for the privacy.But you should be careful with the money you are using for the gambling,because you should not use the black money to keep them secret.Because the black money in the gambling is never accepted one,it's strongly against many of the gambling sites.Not all the people get addicted to the gambling,only few people try to get money return from the gambling and once they get some loss.Loss and profit from the gambling is common in the gambling.But people get worry on loss and get over excited on the small profit.But being neutral at all the situation is the most important one.
Personally I think keeping ones gambling habbit a secret has advantageous effect and disadvantageous effect as well and I will elaborate a little on it.
The good thing about keeping ones gambling habbit a secret is that whenever the said gambler happens to win big winnings, no body would know about it thereby reducing the chances of being attacked or forced to make ones winning with people. But the bad side of it is that if the person happens to be gambling addict who tends not to control himself about gambling, he'll rarely stop the addict because of the fact that closed friends and relatives who were supposed to call him to order are ignorant of the fact that the said person is a gambler

A tough match it was for Barcelona tonight.

Naturally, I am a bit excited that Barcelona lost some points tonight, but it's just the beginning of the season with so many games coming up. I didn't watch most of the game but the last part of action give a glimpse of what the match was about.

I think the decision by the referee not to give a penalty in stoppage time was right. There was a handball by Gavi before Araujo got fouled.
This must be from a Real Madrid fan, because Barcelona is always your toughest opponent; however, this is just the start of the season, and while no one wants to lose some points, that's the game of football; we'll make it up in the next games, and I'm still proud we didn't lose the match despite the red cards.
Personally I think Barcelona deserves to be applauded for their performance tonight against Getafe because of the fact that they played most part of the game with 10 men though their opponents where also reduced to 10 men in the 52nd minute.
IIkay Gundogan was very impressive in his first competitive game for the Catalan club and has shown great signs that he'll make a good signing for them. Barcelona for fact had wanted a win but a draw isn't a bad result as well
