When trying to establish a casino,the main thing that we must take into account is that it must be negotiated with the governments in power,a government,and financial entities are the main enemies of a casino, and more if it is a crypto casino In particular, a government should never get involved in crypto issues, because they have no room, as well as banks, and for this reason the requirement of NO KYC becomes the main pillar of demand for players in casinos. If there is some established occasion that can lower these requirements, it would be easier to get players.

Security in all casinos should be the main foundation of a casino,without security I think there is nothing, because a vulnerability where a casino exploit can be made is not the fault of the players, it is the casino's responsibility, and a casino must pay your players who played and benefited, because imagine a person who never plays in a casino, by chance chooses the game that has the vulnerability and wins, then they tell you that you can't withdraw your winnings because there was an error, that's something not very well seen, and an app can bring this type of vulnerability, as well as this is also very vulnerable that they can steal the credentials of the person's account, these are the main dangers of an application.

In every casino, the best promotions and contests that can be given will always be taken into consideration, players will always look for a way to establish which is the best casino that has the best promotions with the highest chance that they can win.

In this aspect it is difficult, because I have done this type of research, the bad thing is that when I choose a casino that offers a great promotion I read its terms and conditions, they turn out to be very impossible things to comply with or at least I would not have the patience for that. , then it should not be like that, it is well known that promotions and contests are to benefit the casinos but they should not be so difficult.

We understand that it is more of a government demand that they want casinos to operate with enforcing KYC and casino have to obey them to comply with the local rules but things in China are operated differently. That's why if any bookmaker is able to provide gambling services without enforcing KYC, we should not be surprised.

If someone tells me that they want to trade in the bitcoin market but they have no idea how it works, my advice is to tell them not to do it, that it is not correct to enter the market and gamble, it does not work like that, maybe if they do he does and is lucky he wins, but in the long term that luck will run out and he will lose everything, trading is not luck or guessing, you know, and we have to take that into consideration when operating.

What I told him is that he better go to a casino and manage his money there, I know that he will still lose it but at least he will enjoy the games, whereas in trading things are not like that.

In new projects or casinos, this sort of thing must have happened often and they don't want to pay because they feel they can't yet have more income or profit from the business they are running.
Affiliates should be more careful when choosing a casino for them to promote because after all, don't let the hard work that has been done not pay off at all.
But here I actually have the thought that an established and reputable casino will definitely always pay out every week and you don't need to worry about not getting paid, but casinos like that will definitely only accept affiliates who are really good, trusted and have a lot of once followers on various social media so that casinos can get the same profit too.

Well, I consider that this is the responsibility of the person who has the url of the project or casino, there are many projects that are usually fraudulent and are difficult to decipher, because it presents everything, licenses, KYC, everything legal and it is not possible sometimes realize they are scammers.

In the case of influencers, I have seen many on YouTube who do not care if they are casinos or estaaf projects, they only care about the money that will pay them, for me they are not useful or reliable because ethics does not exist.

When it comes to affiliates, it is something that everyone wants to take advantage of to get money, but knowing how to choose the most reliable casinos well, you know that nothing will happen and that despite everything the casino remains honest. In addition, the reputation of the person who owns the signature or the url is not compromised.
5166  Economy / Gambling / Re: Consider open live casino (street gambling games) on: March 18, 2023, 09:10:10 PM
No doubt, if those games are also available from the casino house, gamblers will not take that big risk in playing outside. They might consider playing inside the house instead, but there are also some that will continue to play outside as per their own enjoyment.

This is why we have different types of games because we have different categories of individual. Even though all those games get added to online casino, a vast majority of gamblers might still prefer to go to the street gambling sites since that's what gives them excitement. Just take a lot at what's happening in las Vegas, people still travel the world just to go gamble there.

Humans enjoy taking risk that's why this street gambling has an audience, I think we need to bring back this kind of gambling but we have to make it a little bit secure and you'll get a whole new market to make money from. Gambling allow gets boring sometimes.
Well, if I wanted to go to Vegas one day and play, I wouldn't mind losing, but at least say that I was in Vegas playing in your casinos and had that nice experience.

It is necessary to highlight that it has taught us that the best casinos in the world are in Las Vegas,either because we have seen it in Hollywood movies and obviously we have grown up under that culture. There are also movies that have been made in those casinos, I particularly like casinos that are of that style and if they can be considered street games, I like them.It is also a matter of taste,because those who live and have been to those casinos can see them in a normal way.
5167  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIFA World Cup 2026 :Canada/Mexico/United States: Discussion Thread on: March 18, 2023, 08:37:34 PM
If countries that are less interested in football get a chance to participate in this tournament, interest in football will increase in those countries. I think this is a very correct point of view. I support this approach. In addition, the world cup organization held in Qatar showed us the success of the Asian and African teams. I look forward to seeing more teams from these continents. If the name of this organization is the World Cup, we should make it a real world game. If that happens, we will enjoy this tournament more.

This idea to increase the number of world cup participants would also have some financial benefits.The funds that most teams in developing nations would get from participating in the world cup can also be used to promote football in their home country. Some teams in developing nations are underfunded which might have contributed to their poor performance. Teams from Asia and Africa need funds to finance their national teams and local leagues. This will help to to promote football in the country and discovery of more quality player.
There are several reasons for the increase on the number of teams being allowed to participate on the world cup, to begin with there are political reasons for this move, Infantino became the president of FIFA by promising federations more spots for the world cup, another reason is that this will increase the interest on the world cup as now more countries will participate in it, and finally with this the amount of money FIFA will earn from the world cup will increase as well.
Their is a reason for the increase and it might not not be as bad as we think. I believe the 2026 world cup will be very interesting with new chances.  If fifa increase the number of teams that will be participating it doesn't  mean their will lots of weaker teams that will be participating in the competition.
You can never tell which new team will come forward as a competitive team in upcoming World Cup and may be they'll reach in later stages . You can never tell the potential anyone is having before the game as this world we have seen Morocco emerging as a stronger team.
This will increase popularity of fifa and football by leaps and bounds .
Well, in the case of Morocco, they have potential, let's remember that they have Hakimi, who is a very good fútbol player and who is at PSG, so European soccer brought to a country like Morocco is something that can lead to success, because you learn a lot of technique, and that technique is learned by their teammates, so a player from a national team that plays in Europe becomes a great advantage, the local fútbol leagues are very good, but the fact that one has experience in Europe sets a pattern, fútbol in a country grows, especially if its players all play in other leagues, because they become a great army of 11.

With the way Chelsea and Tottenham go about the games they play can we say they are not going to qualify for the next level Tottenham are still without the coach due to illness.
Ac Milan are more ready for the next level they look set and put. I have followed the training section well
Milan won the first match 1-0. Tottenham should definitely show their strength in the home game. Milan have been weak in Serie A lately. We saw this once again with his defeat in the last match. Tottenham has a solid striker line. Kane and Son are the strongest players for Tottenham. At the moment, these forwards are their biggest trump card to pass the round.
Milan is a team that really wants to go far, and the way they are playing, they have very good fútbol, I would like to see Ibra play because he is a very emblematic player, he gives Milan another tonic when he is inside, In particular, Milan have everything to be able to win their games, only sometimes I don't understand their strategies, I know that the technical director has his reasons for not using a formation that is quite focused on attack, because he has it to do it, on the other hand Tottenham I think Harry Kane is the best player here, and thanks to him I see Tottenham in great shape and showing beautiful fútbol.

These features are fixed. Why are all the Italian cups on one side? Nevertheless I see Real Madrid vs Napoli finals. Because Chelsea with is Their current form can't beat Real Madrid the defending champion. Napoli gonna win AC Milan and other Italian cups in the group to get the final ticket.
I assume there will be an Italian finalist, not necessarily Napoli even though they are the first and the best in Serie A but they have their moments of weakness and Milan or Inter could surprise them.
Real Madrid in the other side is experienced with Champions League games but Bayer and City are pretty well right now and passing them will not be easy at all.


I remain convinced that Napoli will do a good job against Milan in the quarter-finals later. even though in the first leg Nopoli will play as an away team, it is difficult for Milan to overthrow Napoli which incidentally is currently in a very positive trend. it can be said, at this time Napoli is in a state of on fire even though it had experienced two defeats in its domestic league.

For Milan, their performance has not been so stable this season. even before that, Stefano Pioli's team had experienced a downward trend before they bounced back. unfortunately, their performance is not yet stable. but that doesn't mean Milan doesn't have a chance, it's just that the chance they have is very small when compared to Napoli.

Meanwhile, once again Madrid is the favorite to qualify for the next phase. because, the opponent they will face is currently in a phase that is not okay. although we can't take it for granted, however, on paper, Madrid has a higher probability than Chelsea to qualify for the next stage.
On the other hand, the City vs Bayern match should have been the top match, a final that was too premature. IMO, one of the teams that won this match, is more entitled to go to the final round match.

Eventually Real Madrid is a favorite team to win the "Orejona" it is not a myth or anything like that, I know that for now Chelsea is going through a very good moment, because they have won some victories, but I don't think that they can do nothing against Real Madrid, however, anything can happen, Chelsea's football has improved a lot, on the other hand, Napoli is a team that has a lot to do to reach the final, but they will meet a great rival, for now what remains for us is to see which team prepares best for this UCL, it looks very interesting, anything can happen.


5169  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Caleb Plant vs David Benavidez on: March 18, 2023, 07:26:58 PM

Yes we can't stop him, many boxers as well in the past have that ambition to move up in weight and claim the belt. But only few and very gifted athletes have done that in the past, Floyd, Manny, Oscar Dela Hoya to name a few.

Oscar though tasted defeated when he tries to go as high as middleweight and fight his now GBP partner in Bernard Hopkins and get knock out in a body punch. So lets see how far David can go in his career.

It's true what happened with Oscar was something really painful, but I think that happened to Oscar because he began to climb very quickly, the training was not enough and obviously the blows they gave him were on another level, his body had not yet adapted to that, in which, in my respect, gaining weight in boxing is something that is really difficult because the ability to receive blows has to be higher than before and this can only be achieved with very hard training, and to pass quickly unless To be a genius in boxing you have to spend a long time training, only then is it possible, otherwise what happened to Oscar happens.

And for David's perspective towards Plant, it's either he is indeed underestimating the latter just because he failed on his campaign towards Canelo or David was just messing around and playing some mind games with him to distract him from his plans. But that moves may have a consequence because the way I see it, Plant is serious this time and David might be a victim.

Hard to say, maybe mind games, or personal thing for him as we have seen videos of their confrontation years ago. And it seems the Benavidez are hell bent on getting their revenge on Caleb. But the thing is that Caleb saw this as just their antics and so he will be more prepared for this fight just to make sure to shut the mouth of David and his father.

Well, Benavidez might get furious on that note because Caleb is just taking their words lightly when in-fact Benavidez's side are serious about it and it's not just mind game antics for them or trying to sell the fight even more. On the other hand, at least Caleb Plant is calm enough about it and didn't let David and his father destroy his plan, that is to have a rematch against Canelo.

If that is the case then Caleb should be winning the mind games already? Because if the Benavidez can't get into Caleb's mind then it could backfire on them and maybe it's Caleb that is getting to their nerves and not the other way around.

That's one thing I noticed about Caleb though, even in the Canelo fight, he is really calm until Canelo hit him with that hook during their press conference. But after the fight, they are all professional and respectful to each other. Hopefully who ever wins here, will bury their hatchet and forget what has been said and done in the past.

These games are always something that boxers use to praise themselves, of course all this is part of the show and something that we see with a lot of emotion, because of what they say, because of what they do, these are things that entertain , but because it is part of the show we must take into consideration that the fight is somewhat close, Benavidez is doing his part, it is normal, Plant on the other hand knows that he should not give up, for me this fight is very balanced, no I would know who to bet on. I don't see a stronger boxer.


Benavidez On Plant: The Only Personal Part That Will Come Of Me Is In Training, During Press Conferences



Quote
It goes without saying that David Benavidez and Caleb Plant do not like one another.

That doesn’t mean the entire training camp or even the fight itself will be fueled by hatred.

“The only personal part of it that will come out of me is in training and during the press conferences,” Benavidez told BoxingScene.com. “You won’t see anything personal come out of me during the fight.”

There have been a lot of personal insults hurled between camps in the buildup leading into their long-anticipated grudge match. The two had to be separated numerous times during their February 2 announcement press conference in Los Angeles for their March 25 Showtime Pay-Per-View headliner from MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

Here mate, the official WBC ranking for their bantamweight class: https://wbcboxing.com/en/bantamweight/

Alejandro Santiago (Barrios) is rank number 4. And yes, Nonito is now rank number 1. And the number 2 Nawaphon Sor Rungvisai, which I thought to be Donaire's opponent for the belt will fight another Filipino in Reymart Gaballo, it is called a title eliminator but obviously the fight between Donaire and Santiago is for the vacant belt already. But maybe the winner of Gaballo vs Sor Rungvisai will fight the champion next.

It is highly likely to happen that the winner between Gaballo and Sor Rungvisai will fight the winner between Nonito Donaire and Alejandro Santiago because whoever the winner between Gaballo and Sor Rungvisai will become the no.1 challenger of the title if ever a mandatory title defense is triggered.

Now it is interesting if both Filipinos won the fight, Gaballo had lost once to Nonito Donaire via 4th round KO so it would be interesting to watch if Gaballo had improved and be able to dominate a fight against Donaire.

In particular, I am a person who has total confidence in Gaballo and Donaire, for me the two are the ones who will win, now between these two, it will be difficult but due to everything they have wanted to demonstrate and want to achieve, it can be Donaire whoever wins, for me if this fight takes place, Donaire will win, I don't know, it could be by knockout or by a few rounds, Donaire gives me the impression that he wants his fights to last a short time so as not to lose shape, his training should Being very hard, also as everyone says that due to age he does not have the same performance, I think that Donaire wants to shut up.

And so WBC ordered a fight between Ugas and Barrios for the interim belt. Ugas is rank 2, while Barrios is rank 5. Thurman is rank 1 and will be fighting the champion in Spence, however it's 154 lbs.

So not sure why WBC ordered such fight for the interim belt, maybe they know that Spence will go up in weight if he wins against Thurman. On the other hand, Barrios has just like 2 fights in this division, lost to Thurman and then won against a unknown boxer. There is also rank 3 and 4 boxers in their organization, but they were bypass by Mario here, and then Ugas who did lost to Spence in his last fight.

In my case, I'm not also sure why these governing bodies keep on ordering such fights for the interim belts to have interim champs when in-fact they are not giving the champions a mandatory title defense especially in the welterweight. They should just focus on giving the existing champions a mandatory title defense because the division is already stacked up at the moment, we have lots of good boxers that is not yet given a chance to be a champion because they are just letting the title holders to keep the belts for a long time while ducking some fights. And now another fight for an interim belt? That's just nonsense, IMO.

Politics  Roll Eyes or possible that both Ugas and Barrios can create good market to bring money, I see your point and it did happened, there are good fighters in this division who don't have the same opportunities like what they've given to both Barrios and Ugas, though Ugas should have this opportunity since he was a former champ.

Will Spence move up to a new division when he wins against Thurman? Personally, I don't see him doing that he likes to continue
holding his belt and the no-loss records, he will just continue to choose the fights and will enjoy his VIP treatment.

All of Spence's behavior suggests that he will go to another division, I don't know which one, but I think he is looking for more fame, new challenges, and if this is the case, then I think Crawford will have all the desire to fight him, It's a shame for Crawford since this boxer has been preparing to beat a Spence that I really don't know what he wants, it's hard to be able to Speculate on what the boxeaodr5 wants, because there are challenges that he doesn't take on and that's not It seems good to me, and a boxer should always be ready for challenges, for rematches, otherwise what they do doesn't make sense to me.

Mbappé is a fantastic forward it must be admitted. Mbappe is one of the partners in the progress of the PSG team so far. However, currently Mbappe's understanding with Lionel Messi is great, I hope that PSG will move forward in the future.
PSG can still go forward with the good players they currently have and PSG's win over Nantes at home also proves that PSG is a team that is still very good in Ligue1 and also in other competitions this season. Now I'm watching the Troyes vs Monaco match at home to Troyes and Monaco need to win today's match if they still want to compete for second place in the Ligue1 standings which is currently occupied by Marseille even though Monaco are currently one goal behind the home team.

Without a doubt,PSG's victory against Nantes was something that raised PSG's morale a lot,having 4 goals conceded is synonymous with confidence,understanding and that only Mbappé and Messi were there of course, for the next game Ney won't be able to either. play, but that is from the UCL, however, I think they have cleared up all the doubts that PSG was wrong and made it clear that things are going very well, I would like to see if they will apply this strategy against Bayern in the UCL, the Bayern is flying in the Bundesliga, what's coming is high-level fútbol, both in Ligue 1 and in the UCL, not bad.

Lyon hosted Nantes at home. The match ended in a 1-1 draw. We can say that it was a good result for Nantes, because even 1 point is important for them. Lyon, on the other hand, continues to lose points by drawing 3 weeks in a row. If it wasn't for the points lost for them in these 3 weeks, they would be in 5th place now. Now they are also aware that there is no compensation for these point losses. It was a game they could have won but it didn't happen. They conceded an early goal, lukeba scored an own goal in minute 2 and lacazette replied in minute 24 but the game ended in a draw with no more goals.

Lyon with this draw lost their chances for playing in europe next season . For such a big team this is awful and i think they need new signings and a new coach so they can try and focus on getting into those first five places. Its a big shame that such a big club in france is in the middle of the table.

Lyon is a team that is valued in France, and it is hard to see a team like this in that position,it is something hard, however this makes it difficult to think that the teams in France are raising the level of fútbol at a very fast pace Of course , PSG is maintaining the same terms and is Immune to being in a different place than the first, for many it is a hegemony, however, Marseille is another team that Has given battle, Lille, but they still need more, I think they are on the right track.

Lacazette nets 150th goal for Lyon in draw with Nantes



Quote
Lyon overcame an early own goal to draw 1-1 at home with Nantes in the French league thanks to Alexandre Lacazette's 150th goal for the club.

Lyon goalkeeper Remy Riou saved Mostafa Mohamed's third-minute shot but the ball hit central defender Castello Lukeba and went in.

Former Arsenal forward Lacazette equalised in the 24th when he held off defender Nicolas Pallois and finished neatly.

It was Lacazette's 21st goal in 28 games overall this season. He's up to second on Lyon's all-time scoring list since rejoining the club.

But he went off midway through Friday's second half with an unspecified injury in a blow for coach Laurent Blanc.

As a coach, Erik Ten Hag has done a great job so far and his performance as a coach is impressive. Compared to other similar coaches, he was able to make a big impact on the team very fast after he joined the team. While many people expected Manchester United to perform even worse after Ronaldo left, Erik Ten Hag performed better than fans expected.

Then many people believed that Ronaldo is the one that can make Manchester united perform better, that is why some people were worried when Ten Hag was not using Ronaldo frequently. But to be honest Ten Hag has really work well for Manchester United,  I never expected he can be able to transform the team just in a season. Ten Hag is able to achieve a lot from his team in this short while as a coach of the team, I believe the team will do well in the Europa league.

Ronaldo turned into a roadblock for the development of the entire Manchester United team or even the whole club. The way he behaved wasn't the way Manchester United would like to be represented.

It is good how it is now. Manchester United is an awesome club again and Ronaldo can appreciate the sun in Saudi Arabia. Let him collect another record in that league.
After Cristiano Ronaldo left the team, the team managed to get back to its original rhythm. Right now Manchester United is in great form. The team managed to secure victory in most of the matches.
true, it's weird that it seems Ronaldo had a negative impact on the team, maybe they were too relying on him or something like that, but things are different now, Man United are consistent with their good performance, and Rashford seems to be on fire lately, the fight would be insane in the Europa League and Man uts seem to be the closest to win it in my opinion.

I would never think that CR7 would have a negative impact on the team, just look at how Al Nassr is doing with his arrival, in the Europa League specifically with Man United and very specifically with respect to CR7 the problem was his fault club, and the day they did not believe that CR7's daughter had died, starting with Ten Hag and ending with all the owners of Man United, they showed little humanity.

Personally, if I were a professional footballer, I wouldn't want to be in a club with people like that, even if they have a different style of football, I wouldn't want to because when certain things happen, you have to be very tactful and understand.



Now in the Europa League things go like this:

Europa League draw: Man Utd to face Sevilla in quarter-finals, Juventus or Sporting wait in semi-finals



Quote
Manchester United have been drawn against six-time winners Sevilla in the quarter-finals of the Europa League.

United will face Spanish opposition for the fourth time in Europe this season, following games against Real Sociedad, Barcelona and Real Betis.

Should they make it through, United will then face either Juventus or Sporting CP in the semi-finals.

They deserved the win in the end, I agree with you, but luck has to be a bit on your side when you couldn't score a goal for 93 minutes. To then score 3 goals in overtime doesn't happen every day either. I think the 3-1 was a bit too high in the end as it is also questionable why the referee would add so much time even on top of the overtime.

I think it was quite a physical match, the match produced a total of 30+ fouls and 6 yellow cards of which each of those fouls would had cause time wasting which could have justify the referee adding so much time in the game. The additional time wasn't added to only Al Nassr so that's not an excuse as Al Batin could have easily defender their line and counter attack Al Nassr to add to their lead but they couldn't take advantage of the extra time. I think what gave Al Nassr more believe was after their equalizer that went in at the 93rd minutes.

Al Nassr has defeated Al Batin in their previous encounters on numerous occasions and all their games has ended with  hunge goal margin so Al Nassr only needed that equalizing goal to regain themselves and it wasn't like the referee was favoring Ronaldo. I think the only thing he contributed to that game was carrying the ball from the net to build up the team spirit after their equalizer went in.

Sure you are right that it was a physical match, but you don't even see 12 minutes of extra time in a brutal Premier League game. Usually 12 minutes happens when the game had to be stopped for several injuries taking minutes and minutes to get a player off the field and taken care of by a doctor. That wasn't the case so much so I understand the fans who said that it is a bit fishy.

When Al Nassr scored the first goal, I was convinced that now this is going to be bad for Al Batin. When you concede a goal that late it is not unusual that you lose control over the game totally. The third goal didn't even matter anymore in the 104th minute or what it was, but shifts in momentum are quite normal when one team scores the equalizer in extra time. But in total Al Nassr was the better team and I think from that perspective it is ok. It is normal that fans complain when a loss like that happens.




Well, I know that the time for that game seemed too much to everyone, personally it also seemed to me that it was a long time and it is something that only the referees know why they assigned it, however if they gave that time it was so that they would not have allowed themselves to be tied, but Al Nassr was attacking a lot and that resulted in victory, I know that many thought they were in favor of Al Nassr, that impression was given, but I am sure that in Saudi fútbol they do not have need to do something like that, which is considered cheating, honestly their reasons will have, I do not question any of that, because until now I know Saudi fútbol.

Back on topic, Ronaldo's Al Nassr faces Abha tomorrow and hopefully they'll be able to bounce back from thir lost against Al-Ittihad and reclaim their first position on the table. Abha isn't going to be a problem for Al Nassr as they can comfortably defeat them even without the help of Ronaldo but hopefully Ronaldo steals the show tomorrow and get himself another hattrick so he can keep adding to his goals tally. Al-Ittihad who are in second plays Al Fateh tomorrow as well so we should be keeping an eye on that game as to see how Al-Ittihad plays to show if they'll be determined to retain their spot at the top of the table by winning.

Just a correction, Al Ittihad have taken the first rank after defeating Al Nassr in the previous round. Their match looks more difficult than Al Nassr as their competitor, Al Fateh, have been achieving nice results, whereas they won against Al Hilal, and took a point from Al Nassr. In addition, the Spanish striker Cristian Tello is ready to play this match after recovering from an injury. With this in mind, Al Ittihad could find some difficulties in this match. However, there is no way for them to lose points, as Al Nassr strives to restore the lead again.
Surely Al Nassr will be able to win , CR7 is a guy who can be very impulsive at times,but from all this he can stand up for the team, they are not losing a place by much difference, they can recover it and that's it , in everything The team passes,even if they lead, the important thing here is that they can recover.

Now the Al Nassr star is making himself felt:

The Premier League lineup for this weekend looks so exciting and high hope for most clubs fans, as many of the clubs such as Arsenal, manchester, and Chelsea all have matches to play on Saturday and as a matter of fact all the clubs are on the hot seat since this will be a knock out leg for most of the clubs.

-So that the opponents will try all the possible best to make a record from the matches tomorrow and if care is not taken clubs like Asernal and Chelsea. At possibly lose their points if they're failed to secure winning tomorrow.
Chelsea will focus on the Premier League because they need a miracle to beat Dortmund in the 2nd leg but they need to finish in a European slot for the next season because they risk losing a lot of their players if they do not finish in a European slot. Arsenal have a easy fixture should I do not expect them to drop points and they should have good success in the champions league. Manchester City are always favorites so I expect them to win in the Champions League but I think Newcastle could steal a point.
False.

Chelsea could be even more focus to win champions league in order to get the UCL spot next season secured even though they are finished the season outside the top 4. No chance for chelsea to get through top 4 at this point , at best chelsea might finish 6th or 5th.
with the difference of points in the league and their performance lately overall, we won't be seeing them in the CL next year, they can't catch up with teams in the Premier League and they can't also win the champions league, we'll it's not impossible but they already lost I the 1st leg against Dortmund and they barely can score in their last matches.
Can stay in the top 10 is good enough for Chelsea, how is it possible to imagine they will participate in the CL next season amid fierce competition for the top 4 Premier League standings

Well what happens is that I think that for the next year Chelsea will be playing very well,I really don't know but the team they have is so they never lose,but for some strange reason they haven't got the rhythm of their good fútbol,I what I think is that they need a good attack,with a good attack that team becomes invincible,of course the competition in the PL is very strong,they have incredible competition,the team you least expect can surprise and win, conceding goals in the PL is something hard,the one who scores goals in the PL is because he is a great crack,that is why this fútbol is rising more and more in level.

Now Newcastle has to compete with Liverpool, who currently have a point difference that is not so difficult for Liverpool to catch up with. At least Liverpool will continue to focus temporarily in order to secure 5th place in the standings. It is likely that this will happen, Newcastle will be given the opportunity to secure a position in this match if they manage to come out victorious. Nottingham Forest is still below the quality of Newcastle, but once again that this game will be difficult to predict. Most likely Nottingham Forest will put up a pretty tight fight.

So far this season, Nottingham has had better results when Nottingham is playing at home, and at this moment, Newcastle's performance has indeed declined. So, the match against Nottingham cannot be a guarantee for Newcastle to win easily, because Nottingham can sometimes play well when Nottingham plays against a team that is ranked above.

Therefore, even though Newcastle are still the favorites to win, I think the result could be a draw. Because in several Newcastle matches as well and in fact, Newcastle had several draws when Newcastle played against a team that was ranked in the middle and also at the bottom. Therefore, playing away against Nottingham, it still requires for Newcastle to play at a higher effort like when Newcastle improved well before.
In particular, I like what Newcastle is doing , they don't do it badly, I just insist that they Haven't had very good luck in their games, and something has gone wrong for all of them , but seeing the way they play they are improving a lot, I think that they can give Liverpool a good fight , Liverpool is a team that has already been taken out of the UCL , it is also dangerous Because the way they destroyed Manchester United was not something normal, that was out of range for many , I am sure that nobody bet that Liverpool would win like that , the PL has an impressive level of fútbol , this match will be very encouraging.

DeSantis continues with with evasion tactic

He isnt going to win if he never represents, he cant win on just being known in Florida clearly so he has to fight somewhere and apparently saw no gain in doing so early in this venue.  I wonder if DeSantis is waiting for Trump to lose before he tries to win.   The biggest events in that race might be entirely 3rd party such as legal proceedings or other measures if any though I actually think there isnt any real case to bear especially.  People rioted and they shouldn't have, Trump should have admitted defeat and conceded but you cant try people for not agreeing with you or bad faith in a democratic system.
   Im not a fan of any of these guys but I think any prosecution against Trump would only be biased and appear malicious and interfering with democracy which makes it a completely ironic and self defeating attempt at justice.  They tried him twice as President and it didn't pass just like the attempt on Clinton in the 90's was mostly fuss with no real gain possible.
  People and the mainstream are almost completely separate to the undercurrents of politics which is probably a good thing, I'll wait for the crowd to weigh in but at present the precedent is with any serving president to continue.

If things are like this,then where is politics headed in the USA?The political currents in this country seem to be out of control, I don't know what the people of North America are looking for,but apparently they don't have anything clear, there are many candidates who are quite radical, others who seek political currents that seek to improve on the one hand but to make it worse for another,these things in the most emblematic country in the world is quite curious, because if we compare it with any other country, politics is very different,it goes very much in the direction of simple things,but in the USA there is a lot at stake,even decisions for wars.

5176  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: March 17, 2023, 06:24:28 PM
I assume Inter would manage to take back the second position from Lazio tomorrow. Lecce aren't a match for them on paper. They don't have a good form that can motivate them against Inter to resist solidly. Inter got an unexpected loss against Bologna the last time indeed but this is an opportunity to make up for that. I don't doubt especially Inter attackers to be effective in this game.

As Milan lost their game as well this is a chance for Inter to get away from them too. Inter still seem a bigger candidate than Milan for the second position.

Yes that's what i believe too, inter will not find any difficulties to get the 3 points against lecce and get back the second position, but they need to be focused and not underestimate their oppenet, they lost the previous match against a weak team and i don't think this will happen again today

Juve will always be one of the best teams in Italy, they are a benchmark in Serie A,but Napoli is a team that has a very big advantage, and apart from that I don't think they can reach it in points.Now the fight of the other teams is that they have to position themselves in the first places, they want to secure their places in the UCL and this next UCL is going to be very exciting because in every fútbol league that I have seen, they are being very fought,both the Bundesliga , La Liga, LIGUE 1,they are all at a very high level,and that is something to admire,for now I wish that Roma could reach the UCL qualifying bet.

I wonder if anyone has consistently kept betting on Napoli? as they have been the most consistent team this season only 2 defeats and 2 draws from 26 matches in the league, continuing to bet the same amount of bets on Napoli to win must have seen his money growing quite well in his bookmaker account and with 12 matches remaining and also considering how consistent they are, Napoli's chances of continuing to win are still large, so at the end of the season the balance will increase.
I think there will be consistent people betting on Napoli, but I don't think there will be many. Yes, we know they play very consistently, but those who bet will definitely consider the opponent that Napoli is currently facing. It's clear that if anyone consistently continues to bet on Napoli, their bankroll will increase given their high win rate in Serie A this season.

This is what we call a "safe bet" Napoli's performance is undoubtedly one of the best, for me it is the most complete team in Serie A, it is even above Juve, Inter, Roma, Milan, which are teams that are valuartes of Serie A, Napoli has surprised a lot and it is a team that can continue making history, in Italy it is the leader and this is good, because it gives rise to other teams that are barely ascending to the first division to see that the opportunities are the same for everyone and that they can make a difference if they show high-level fútbol.



And there is also a lot of talk about Napoli:

The German league was so interesting today after seeing Bayer Munich won an important encounter they need to add up more points to their existing points, this is needed because this is a good opportunity for them since union Berlin has drop a little and Brusia Dormund is very much in good peak and they are following closely with very impressive outplay
Bayern Munich are winning now since Dortmund are catching up with them, they are a team that Bayern should be worried about, Union Berlin as I expected can't keep it consistent in the long run, they are starting to lose points, but Dortmund on the other hand are beating teams like Leipzig to keep the streak of winnings, that's the team you should worry about for sure.
Well,Bayern is a team that is not going to waste its opportunity to continue at the top for anything in the world, now it is aiming at its two objectives, to win the Bundesliga and win the UCL,something quite big, Dortmund, of course, Dortmund has a great initiative and a lot of motivation, they also want to win the Bundesliga, and something that seemed strange to me is that they have not sold players, one of the main business models that the team has,this time they have opted to have a great team and play to win the competitions, the expectations of this team are great, and the fútbol they show is really exceptional.




This Match is coming up and it's great:

Borussia Mönchengladbach vs. Werder Bremen: probable teams, match stats and LIVE blog!



Quote
The 3-0 defeat to RB Leipzig last Saturday means Daniel Farke's Gladbach have won only two of their nine Bundesliga games in 2023. They've now lost four of their last five away fixtures, while only two sides have conceded more than their 18 goals this calendar year. One of those outfits, though, are their next opponents, Bremen, and their 3-2 victory over league leaders and current reigning champions Bayern Munich suggests they have the quality to turn their fortunes around. Farke is without suspended defender Ramy Bensebaini, with Luca Netz set to continue there. Midfielder Julian Weigl is also unavailable, but goalkeeper Jonas Omlin comes back in contention after two games on the sidelines. Although Thuram has just scored one of his team-leading 11 goals since the turn of the year, he remains the most trigger-happy player in this season's Bundesliga, and can count on the support of Jonas Hofmann, captain Lars Stindl and Alassane Plea in attack.

It's bett
But if he returns to the Brazilian club it would still be too soon for now. It looks like Firmino will be going to one of Europe's top clubs next summer, which is definitely not a club in the EPL. He is still 31 years old and he is still quite productive as a striker, I think he will go to a club in La Liga or Serie A later.
It's better for firmino to go to the al nassr and play together with ronaldo. Firmino has been included in the al nassr's big plan to build the dream team club. It seems like that firmino had no intention move to the another EPL club and he was willing move to the another league. It's caused by how love firmino to the livepool and he didn't wanna be a competitor for liverpool if he was moving to the another EPL club.

There are some clubs that already linked to him in the past but that's his choice. I prefer to see hime move to the al nassr. That will be very interesting to see him play together with ronaldo.

That's very sad that after 8 years in liverpool and finally firmino must move from there.

Well, that seems to me to be a mistake, because Firminho now has a good future, you don't have to see Al-Nassr as a bad option, quite the contrary, the amount of money they are going to receive is immense and apart from that, they have a good future in that Football for CR7 has not gone bad at all, he is loved, they acclaim him and he has the acceptance that he has always wanted to have, that is something that every footballer wants to have, in the case of Firminho if he leaves, I am sure they will call him to play in the national team of Brazil, and the player does it very well, it is a pity that Liverpool is going to leave him.

~snip~
It seems Manchester United still have their mind set on bringing Frankie De Jong to the club despite getting disappointed and all approach turned down by the player in the summer they still want to try again. Frankie De Jong is a very talented player who obviously matches the hype so it's no surprise why Manchester United are bent on having him on their team.

It's not just why Manchester United are so bent into the dutch lad, the point is that he suits into Erik Ten Hag game plan as we've seen with Ajax and he's trying to recruit same players so as the youngest of players can sit and watch the game.
He's made things difficult for Manchester United, I'm so sorry he wants to stay but Manchester United has got to send him outside during the transfer window. Barcelona would rather sell Franke De Jong over Gavi.

Rumor has it that Barcelona has included De Jong on the selling list in the upcoming transfer market. so it's not surprising, if Ten Hag is again interested in bringing his former protege to Old Trarfford. Even though De Jong had rejected an offer from United, this time it looks like it can come true. because, referring to a few occasions ago. De Jong once said that he was determined to bring Barcelona to win the La Liga trophy. and if that materializes, De Jong would be happy to move on to another club.

To be honest, I like this midfielder. he has an unquestionable work ethic. if, De Jong left for Old Trafford in the upcoming summer transfer market. I am quite optimistic, if United will be much stronger than they are currently showing. after all, De Jong was very familiar with the system and coaching style of Ten Hag and he didn't need much time to adapt.

Well, apparently Xavi doesn't want to let him go, because he praises him a lot:

The truth is I don't know where De Jong would fit in better , if Barcelona or United , for me in neither of the two teams,he and Lewa have a UCL level and not in the Europa League , for me he would fit very well in City , or even going to another league like the Italian one , specifically in Napoli that shows impeccable fútbol, I would even like to see him in Roma or Juve.

You owe us some money’ – John Fury sends warning to Jake Paul over Tommy Fury fight bet

Quote
Fury sealed a split decision victory over Paul in Saudi Arabia on Sunday night to settle a feud that had raged for almost two years.

Prior to fight night, the YouTuber-turned boxer raised the stakes, offering to give his rival his entire cut of the fight purse if he could become the first man to beat him.

John Fury eagerly agreed to those terms on his son’s behalf before the former Love Island star crossed the stage to shake hands and seal the deal.

Source: https://metro.co.uk/2023/03/01/john-fury-sends-warning-to-jake-paul-over-tommy-fury-fight-bet-18369562/?ito=newsnow-feed

Jake Paul has to pay that bet, even if there is not a written contract the terms were extremely simple and they both agreed to it, and if he refuses I think Tommy Fury has enough grounds to take this to court and win, and at that point most likely he will have to pay for the lawyers expenses and the interests accumulated during that time too, so he better pays up, besides if he refuses this will be a hit to his reputation as we will know his word is worth nothing on his eyes and he is willing to go back so easily on it.
^ That is right, if there is a dispute over the terms of a bet or agreement, it is always best to have a written contract to avoid confusion or misunderstandings. This helps to establish clear expectations and ensures that both parties understand their obligations. Because for me, if Jake Paul made a bet with Tommy Fury and both parties agreed to the terms, then Jake Paul should honor the bet and pay up, regardless of whether or not there was a written contract. Reneging on a bet could certainly damage his reputation and could be he is not a trustworthy person.


That would be a shame for Jake Paul,I don't see it that way,as I have said in several threads,a boxer should always be prepared to accept his challenges,rematches,without being forced by a clause,rookie boxers are always hungry to fight and accept all kinds of challenges,but personally a boxer must accept it,boxers currently do not know what they are looking for,but everything points to the business model and to earn more money,it is not bad to earn money,but it is not possible either lose the north that is the sport and more the boxing that is such an exciting sport.

So definitely we will see Beterbiev fight this year again. But we have to wait for it and it is obviously not Bivol which is the fighter that we wanted to see and for the unification of the belt. But Callum Smith might be a good opponent for him. We all know that he had a good title run, until he lost to Saul Alvarez and then he decided to move up to 175 and now has another crack for the belt against Beterbiev.


More likely he will just gonna bulldozed by Beterbiev because he is not that strong enough to take his punches. I don't know what else Beterbiev needs when he already got the best requirements to fight with Bivol. But still, when it comes to a super fight such as this one, it turns out the negotiation is so hard that it will gonna be taken so long before they can even decide whether to approve the fight or not. Anyway, Beterbiev doesn't really care whoever he's next opponent will be, as long as they are in the same weight, he will demolish him.

I guess he needs to fight Bivol, as he is not getting any younger, so at least he should have a big fight before retiring. Callum Smith is tall but weak; he was beaten by Canelo easily, just like what Canelo did to Caleb Plant. Maybe Beterbiev has to consider challenging himself more, and that is by fighting a boxer against whom we aren't sure he will win.

Not guess but he should've pick Bivol instead of Beterbiev because Bivol will be his redemption if ever he can rule an upset in the fight, it might be hard for him considering that Canelo just beat him easily but he should endure it and give an upset towards the champion if he still wanted his name to be in the top of this weight class. Fighting against Beterbiev is nonsense because I really don't believe that he a slightest chance against the 3-belt champ. Callum Smith picked an opponent that will end his career much earlier and will add an embarrassment to his existence in the industry, that's for sure.

These are the things that I don't understand in boxing either,for me it should also be Bivol, but I think that this type of decision has a lot to do with the business model that generates more money,if with Beterbiev they generate more, then that is the primary reason.

In these times there are fights that sometimes are not within the normal context , not only this one, there are others that do not make sense to me, but I think that now things are moving much more towards what generates more money, the boxing is now more focused in that direction.

An AI is obviously to help human beings since an AI learns in a short time, it must also be taken into account that now this AI thing is booming, I see it as a trend, most people only talk about AI and its scope.

The AI is in the development stage, we cannot completely trust an AI, much less its detectors, because how can they determine if it is AI? as? The only way I see AI detectors can be trusted is if they give the same results in at least 10 known detectors and also if they have advanced anti-plagiarism development. Even so, I think that our intelligence is still an irreplaceable option because it has other elements associated with it, such as emotions, something that no AI can feel..
Regards to gambling, there's no doubt that human intelligence is still the best thing to rely on.

You can't just ask an AI that haven't gambled yet but soon we might see these developers start to include that with AI activities and they'll gamble on their own.

As you've mentioned, it's still learning and soon everything we do including gambling, they'll also have time to cover that with whatever is gonna be asked on them. We'll never know if that time comes, it could be scary or not.


Well, you're right, I don't know how advanced the AI is with respect to predictions, but it's a matter of time before they can do something with more reliability,I don't know if they can achieve precision, but it's very difficult for them to manage it, but it's as you say, if they achieve something like that, it might be scary because an AI could not only predict bets in casinos, it could be used to predict events, or even the fate of many people with the data provided, this is something that can happen, but for now it is very far from achieving it,at the moment trusting an AI for these things is not good,it would be very feasible to lose money.
