It's very true the fixture between Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich will be a determinant as to who's going bro be very probable to win the bundesliga this season because currently Leverkusen is just few points away from Munich and a win from Munich will means Munich staying ahead of Leverkusen by a point and maintaining such record could get them the trophy.

Leverkusen getting a draw by the end of this game will mean them staying just two points ahead of Munich and that's still a Shakey position which can at any point be taken away from them, Leverkusen has got the home advantage in this game but then Munich still doesn't look like that will be a problem to them but something they will be able to manage by the end of the day, Leverkusen winning will means staying five points ahead of Munich which I think will be the biggest advantage to be sure of winning the trophy because it will take Bayern to win two matches while Leverkusen loose two matches at a stretch aswell which is very likely not to happen.
This match will be the most anticipated event in the Bundesliga this week, but it may be an overstatement that it will be the decisive one of the season. There are still a lot of matches left until the end and during this time anything can happen, injuries, recessions and anything else that can affect the position of the teams in the table. This match is of course very important, there is no denying it, but even if Bayern loses (which I doubt), they will have a chance to turn things around.
It will definitely be something that will be a lot more fun to watch than most other games and it will definitely not be an easy thing to do, it will definitely have something that will be a bit different, it doesn't need to be a lot easier, it is going to be hard to bet on. I still think that Bayern is the better team and they will win, and when they do win, they will get the leader position and I feel like they are not going to leave that position to anyone else after that.

I believe that the best thing to do would be making sure that it is going to be time consuming thing that will take a while. This is why I think it's clear that we are going to end up with something that should not be all that easy to handle.

Not sure if they are called ETF when they are just buying up, like a company is allowed to do, because ETF is a different thing all together. But even with that, if we use this calculation I think the amount of money being taken, the accumulation that these companies are doing, would have to be considered a lot higher without a doubt.

It makes bitcoin go to a great level and should be something that will benefit everyone. The more they buy and hold the more money they make and I think it has to be very crucial to our future. It is clear that we are going to end up with a good return, and while it will not be all thanks to them, it will definitely be a good thing to handle in the end, it will be a bit of their help that get us there.
503  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: February 05, 2024, 12:21:03 PM
Well, it was quite a difficult match played by Liverpool this week, where visiting Arsenal home ground made Liverpool really unable to balance Arsenal's game. Saka et al really didn't give Liverpool any space in this match because Liverpool were quite under pressure because they were constantly being attacked by Arsenal. Sometimes situations like this make a team start to be inconsistent because their opponents continue to attack and their defense becomes increasingly uncontrolled which allows Arsenal to score 3 goals in this match.

Liverpool defeat was Liverpool second defeat this season, where they last lost to Tottenham and now it's Arsenal turn to beat them. However, fans do not have to ridicule Liverpool performance this season because overall they have performed quite well compared to the previous season. It is difficult to continue to see a team win continuously because the Premier League has very strong competition that occurs in every match.
I would say Arsenal were very successful in reducing all Liverpool's efforts in this match, yes Arsenal also managed not to give Liverpool the opportunity to be able to develop their game, so we saw Liverpool not like we see as usual. Arsenal managed to take advantage of their status as hosts, and put continuous pressure on their guests.
Personally, to be honest, I did not expect that Liverpool would be so difficult like this, previously I predicted the match would be a draw but the facts that happened never imagined before.
Obviously this result is very detrimental to Liverpool, although they are still at the top of the standings, but it cannot be denied that they are in the shadow of the club under them who can get closer.
I mean bad days do happen for every team, and while it looked like they did alright we could also say that it is not a shocker that they lost. Arsenal is also a great team and only a few points behind, so it is clear that Liverpool started a game that looked like it would be a problem for them, and they ended up losing the game eventually as well.

I get that it is going to be a fine line between the title run and just losing, like how Arsenal looked great but then eventually lost, if Liverpool has a few more of games like these, then they will not be doing all that great and may lose their title chance. This is why, one is enough, they should not lose these big games and end up getting wins on those to make sure they do fine.
504  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you invest on this kind of offer? on: February 05, 2024, 09:51:52 AM
Not interested in this kind of investment offer because maybe for me too risky, will not take any action if not in line with my thoughts.

Maybe this is a different kind of bankroll investment offer because you are the one betting not the casino that is operating all this, now the doubt is that if you will lose more will it be returned while you will be able to do that?

I think the concept is a bit different from other bankrolls but from my own understanding it is less attractive even though there is a profit sharing if your bet wins.
I've never done a bankroll investment before so I don't know how it works, but what OP suggested isn't a risky way as long as the person collecting investments is trusted or there is a way for them to provide some security for the investors because he is saying that if the investment is lost, he will repay the amount in full and if he manages to win something with it, the investor gets a share of the profits because of the investment.

So, as said by some other users, I wouldn't mind testing it out with an amount that I can afford to lose even if it won't be lost based on OP's promise, but only if I'm sure that the guy collecting investments is completely trusted and we get to see and experience how he gambles with the money to also enjoy the adventure and see how it works.
505  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Investing in meme coins is worthy or not? on: February 05, 2024, 06:42:22 AM
Life is not as simple as you think it is, and investing into meme coin could be profitable or not and you would not know before you invest. You can't just have "yes it is worthy" or "no it is not worthy" responses, that is not going to end up being any important like that, it would not make sense that way at all.

I think it is quite important to realize that you are going to end up with something that would not be profitable for you one way or another. So avoid doing anything major, and just focus on what type of money you want to make with how much risk you want to take and ignore what other people are telling you. If you keep focusing on what others are telling you then you are not going to end up with any profit at all.

First with Joel Embiid scoring 70 points, then Luka Doncic getting 73 points, and now Curry with 60 points as well. We are maybe entering a new era of basketball where ISO could be coming back in a different format where stars are taking most of the shots and just taking the load, not in an isolation matter of the scoring ways but more like field goal attempt ways.

The thing about these type of eras is that sometimes it looks like it will stay, like it is the new NBA thing, but then it doesn't pan out. Remember the years when Westbrook was doing TD season averages? Everyone said that became the norm, and plenty of other players had so many, became common and all, but looking at it now, it is not all that extra common, so maybe this one will fizzle out too.
507  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: February 04, 2024, 06:39:22 PM
Girona has been quite awesome this season, but they should have won this game, the fact that they failed to get a win means that Real just has more chances, and they are just giving them the title. Not only that, but the points difference is just six with Barcelona, and I still keep saying that Barcelona could finish second this season behind Real Madrid. If that happens, all this Xavi thing was for nothing if you ask me, a year where he won the title and a year when he gets second place is not a bad thing, what did they expect a manager that would win every year?

With the way their finances are going, I think 50% title run seems to be the best hope they could possibly ever have. He is still a good manager, who has been dealt a bad hand.
508  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: February 04, 2024, 05:58:44 PM
Look, if a club can actually get a young player who is showing potential or an old player who is experienced in top-level competition as a free agent it is never a bad transfer. One way or another most probably both of them are going to be very useful for the team in the long run.

Well, I know when we talk about the experienced player, we probably cannot talk about "the long run" because he is only going to perform well for a limited amount of time. However, for a club which is not doing well and does not have a good financial situation, those experienced players can be very useful as free agents, right?
Yeah, definitely a free agent isn't a bad transfer anyway but sometimes it looks like the player isn't valued by professional clubs or rather unaffordable by some less competitive clubs but however, if a player who is a free agent goes to a lesser club he tends to be more useful there as his experience would differ from the rest of the teammates regardless of the age difference and most times, it looks as if players who are ageing doesn't have that much to offer to a club but that is a wrong mentality as any player can do better despite their age difference so i believe that Jerome Boateng is a nice defender and he would surely showcase his defensive talent at his new found club in the serie A, Salernitana. For Salernitana to sign a player that has played in a top club in Europe like Bayern Munich, it really means a lot to the club regardless of the age of Jerome Boateng.
Some players just decide to retire when they can't find a good team, they rather be unemployed then go play somewhere they deem not worthy of their time. Look at De Gea, dude spent half a year already without a club, he probably still trains hard, I do not think that we saw the last of him, but I am pretty sure that United must be feeling terrible for sending him away, he could have helped them win much more games, certainly stay in UCL if he was there.

All in all, Boateng transfer was a good one, free transfers are usually great if you do not pay a lot of salary and Salernitana has been doing terrible so they do need all the help they can get. I think it is going to be a tough decision to make, and there is a possibility that he may not be all that terrible.
509  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Pay off DEBT by do Gambling? think again before you loss more on: February 04, 2024, 12:55:53 PM
It is clear that we are not going to really end up having any benefit from gambling, not financially anyway. Maybe your mood can change, but even that could be for the good or for the bad and we do not know which one it will be. So, it would make more sense if we could just ignore all of that and not gamble when we have debt.

People with debt should focus on paying off their debt first, that will always be the most important part. Do not be afraid of debt, it can be a good thing, it can be a driver, you need to just focus on doing that, and when it is paid off, you will realize that you could actually save that much now, because you were paying it anyway, and if it's all paid, now that you have no debt, same money goes to savings and investing later on. Then when you get richer, start gambling for fun, with amount you could lose.

PSG wasn't that good during the group stages without a doubt, it is not just about past years, you could say that they are "better" than past years if they played dominant football during this years group stages but they did not, they played quite badly this year as well. That was just a month or two ago, and now they are going to suddenly be good enough to win the whole thing?

I think PSG is good at where they are, at ligue one, that's it and they should be happy to have that again and again. They are not going to end up with anything like UCL, they are just not good enough. Bad thing about the situation is that they can't drop to Europa neither, so they never win anything at European competitions, they just go beyond the group stages, and lose there.

Lewis Hamilton to ferrari is definitely the talk these days, but nobody talks about the other two situation. First of all, Sainz is gone with this new information, which will impact his season, he will not play team racing and he will try to get the most points, to him Charles is the enemy as well maybe more than anyone else and he may not listen to what others will say, no team order could make him give up positions anymore, or maybe better yet he might do it because he wants to show others he can be a team player.

Another situation is the empty Mercedes seat, sure Grossjean is a funny bit and all, but we know they will try to get someone better, I do not know who that person will be but they will really need someone great at that spot if they want to have a chance.

I think price will be between 40-45K at the end of the day and winners will receive x1.91 outcome. if today is the unlucky day and Bitcoin will see a huge fall, then those who made a bet on 37.5-40K price range will receive x2.63 outcome. There are exceptionally attractive outcome odds for those who made extreme bets but I think there is a very low chance of seeing price outside of 37.5-45K range.
I believe, those, who made a bet on 40-45K will win. So, congrats earlier from my side, I'm very confident!
Honestly, I do not look at the price as much as I look at the odds. Because odds usually do hover a lot around what the price is about right now, so most people gamble the highest amount to wherever we are, and that's an important thing of course because it decides on the odds.

I look at the odds outside of that period, a bit higher and a bit lower, that way I get to see if it worths the risk or not. Betting on what it is right now, so anywhere between 40k to 45k, doesn't make sense because odds are so little, plus crypto could move a lot and that would not make sense. However, betting on something that would be profitable, like 45k+ for example would make it a better wager, because the odds would be higher for that and return would be greater.

Like you, I support Erik Ten Hag. Manchester United needs a stable leader, and I think Ten Hag is the appropriate guy. I hope his ideas will pay off eventually, despite critics' criticisms of his style or player management. Team togetherness and his vision for the club's future are exactly what we need.

The Mourinho parallel amuses me. Mourinho enjoyed his successes with United, but looking back isnt helpful. You stated the team's form comeback; we should focus on that. Im optimistic as the players get fit. Long-term thinking and patience are crucial.
That would be possible only if he shows any type of improvement. Look at Xavi, won the title and a season later he is gone, ETH may have gotten the third position and go to UCL, but then he got out of the top four and lost at UCL as well.

So all in all, I would say that if he wants to stay and if United should keep him then it would have to be a better season for him next year. I am not sure if he will be even kept until next season, but with the way he is getting players who turn out to be not that great, I would say its not really all that possible. I do not fancy his chances to stay, and even if he does, how could we know that he would be better next season? I get that changing managers is not that easy, you end up with an unknown, but he isn't good enough to make people wary the possibilities.

If we see Bayern lose out this year, which would not be impossible then I would say that it would be crystal clear for the future of Tuchels career. I am not saying that he would not be hired anywhere again, but I bet that he will not be hired by any big place ever again. He would sort of turn into Mourinho, a manager that used to be good but not good anymore and won't be hired by big teams anymore.

Mourinho of course had much much more achievements before he started to get worse. Bayern is not the level to drop to like Saudi Arabia or something right away, he will still find some mid level team first at Europe but then I think he will get worse and worse. He has to win the title this season for his entire life to be shaped accordingly.

Lakers were missing both AD and Lebron, and they still won. Not that it means Lebron and AD are bad for this team, but the fact that they managed to beat Celtics with this squad is an insane achievement. The only reason for their success was the fact that they played big team ball and that is always good.

When you have stars, everyone else gets cold and then they look like they are missing a lot of shots, but when you shoot once every 7 minutes, it's normal that you would get cold and when you have stars then that happens because stars shoot the ball most and then you get the ball in rotation with everyone else and that turns out to be very few times. They need to start sharing the ball a lot more early on, to get people going at the start of the game, then Lebron or AD could take over if they have to.

For Chelsea's target of finishing in the top 4 or 5, I don't think it will ever happen, they don't deserve it, they still have a lot to fix and it's possible that won't be possible this season.
I agree with what you said. They don't deserve it. Chelsea's performance has been really bad this season. I don't know which fan said Chelsea could possibly reach the top 4 or 5 at the end of the season. I think at the moment Tottenham, Aston Villa and West Ham are much better than Chelsea so it's completely unreasonable to say Chelsea will be able to get a place in the top 4 or five at the end of the season. They have to correct their mistakes in this season because I don't think they will get any place in the international league in the next season.
Not only they do not deserve it, I also think that we are not going to end up with anything near that level for them this season, they are lucky to be in top 10 this season and just should be happy with that. They are barely 10th now, and I think they will stay around that level, 11th is just 2 points away from them but they are also only 1 point behind 9th, so it means they have to fight for their spot right now.

I think they will finish barely within top ten and they should be happy if they can actually achieve it. You don't have to be a good team right away, they are spending some money and they may become better in the future but for the current season they just need to make sure that they are finishing it as high as possible.

Things like this change the nature of the game as it changes the tempo and other things.

In tennis like you mention for example, the players have a limited amount of challenges. So, you could even have a situation in which the player experiences many tricky situations and runs out of challenges. That's another issue.

The thing is that in a game you have a lot of mental stuff, so when you stop the whole game all the time you change the rhythm of it. It's not the same sport.

What I meant with the robots is that robots simply follow the rules, unlike humans who disregard the rules all the time. It's much more interesting to watch humans than having everything so "correct". In the end what matters is the entertainment, not being right.
That is definitely true, if we had robotic referees, who made the right decision %100 of the time, the game may or may not feel fun but it would be at least fair. In situations where a foul may not be given, because the game is flowing well and you do not want to stop it, you would have the robot one stopping the game anyway, they may or may not have the "play the advantage" mindset but even if they do, stopping the game three times more than a regular referee would be a lot worse to watch, all games would be based on set pieces after that.

So, there should be a bit of a test and trial period where real referees would get feedback from the robotic ones and make their decisions, sort of like a tool instead of ruling the game themselves.
518  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is addiction bad only when it is a problem? on: February 02, 2024, 02:34:33 PM
It is important to remember that addiction could have no bad results as well, doesn't mean that it is not addiction. Just like the OP is asking, you are seeing having an addiction that has an impending doom if you are not really careful, and that means just because you haven't had a terrible result so far, doesn't mean you will not have it later on neither, you should be careful about it one way or another.

There are too many people who are not careful about it, and they end up losing in the end. Imagine a person who gambles for a year or two and he wins a lot from sports betting, he has an addiction but he made money so he thinks all is well, then for a year he keeps losing and eventually has nothing left, as you can see that person never saw it as addiction ended up losing it all.

Political bets are very interesting and hope we will see them on many crypto casinos. I think it was very easy to predict Biden as a winner in the previous election, I didn't know about political bets or I would really bet on him.
Right now I checked bet365 and there are very nice odds: Donald Trump wins - 1.83 odd, Joe Biden wins - 2.75 odd. What a nice profit in our hands. I don't want to register on bet365 or any other fiat casino, if duelbits adds political bets, I am one of them who will make a bet. I think there are many others like you, so, duelbits, there is a demand and make it happen.
The difference between sports betting and political betting is that when you are betting on the sports, you are betting on something that is inconsequential, whereas when you are betting on the political things, you are betting on something that will change years on a nation. Remember, even if the president of any nation doesn't do much, like he doesn't even run the nation to the ground, if he is not a nice person, that does tell our kids that you can be a bad person, because if the president is not nice, why should the kid be?

Hence, political betting is far more dangerous, we are betting on the future of a nation, it doesn't matter if your team even gets relegated, sure you would be upset, but it doesn't change a thing in your life, presidential elections does.

Lebron with his tweet could basically be just making some statement and not really change much. I know that people joke about "legm" type of stuff and that is true in some cases he really did have a part to play but do you really think that he had any part to play building this team? It is obvious that he didn't really meddle with trades and free agents for a while now because the team that is built around him is not one that would fit him all that well.

I think it's quite clear that he feels like he is missing a lot of things with this, and should probably see the situation change a bit, it would not be all that simple. This is why I believe that the best thing to do regarding reaction would be maybe he just got bored with it, and wants something but doesn't have the power to do it himself.
