Yes, hopefully Arsenal can still maintain their performance because after all, I think all teams will always have the same risk for their key players getting injured. But indeed, the injury to Gabriel Jesus will greatly impact Arsenal's position at the top of the Premier League standings at this time.
But of course this incident can also be a valuable lesson for Arteta, because when a key player is injured, of course Arteta is required to make even more difficult rotations.

At least Arteta should be able to maintain good results until the end of the year, because after the World Cup the reality is that the English Premier League will restart which means they will restart before the transfer window opens.
Therefore, Arteta must be able to have the best way to be able to maintain Arsenal's performance at least until the end of the year. Because after that Arteta can make purchases of players, which are at least enough to replace or be able to strengthen their attack line due to the temporary absence of Gabriel Jesus.
So far Gabriel Jesus has been a very important player in the Arsenal team and Arsenal's excellent game so far, of course, has a very large share of Gabriel Jesus and with the absence of Gabriel Jesus of course it will greatly affect Arsenal's performance.
however it all comes back to Arsenal coach Mikel Arteta how to handle this.

and so far due to the world cup we can see players who have improved performance and also injured players, it will all have an impact when they return to their respective clubs, be it positive or negative changes.

Arsenal has great players like Martinelli which can keep up the attacking pressure on other teams,of course the absence of such an important player like Gabriel Jesus can have negative effects during his absence for the Arsenal team but I also agree that the coach will just handle it fine.

The fact that Arsenal is clearly ahead in points gives them the serenity to take every single game with calm and caution and thus increasing their chances exponentially to continue to do great and keep winning game after game which in the end will award them hopefully the title.

I enjoyed a lot the game of Argentina yesterday night.They clearly played much better than Netherlands but they got self complacent when they were leading 0-2 so they got hit 1-2,then they thought to keep the result but unfortunately this was not possible because they were equalized in the 101 minute of the game.When they got 2-2 I thought things will go bad for them as Netherlands should be really high on motivation and enthusiasm because they got from 0-2 to 2-2 in a short time.Their error was that they wanted to go to penalties while their goalkeeper had only saved one from all the penalties against him.

Well, Brazil just ended up tripping and is out of the cup. This is good news for the Portuguese team who will not jave to go through Brazil if they win against Morocco, which I firmly believe so.

Argentina was another let's say some sort of surprise not because they were equalized in the 100th minute of the game by Netherlands but because they were winning comfortably 0-2 and they completely lost focus and just wanted to pass time to win the game.That is something you cannot do against a team like the Netherlands which was cynical to say the least as they scored two goals in 15 minutes by the same man,a hit substitution by Van Gal,he came from the bench to score two goals in just 20 minutes that he played.Let's see how it goes but most probably it won't go well for Argentina after this.

Hi guys my friend has Antminer s19 pro that comes with almost 110 TH power. And I have check that I can get almost 5 to 6 dollars max with such profit. And that's not enough with Such hardcore investment. I think that mining Bitcoin for. Long term could be a good investment cause when btc will be at higher price than current price than our holding BTc could be a fortune for us.

I also know that Bitcoin is running on SHA-256. in my opinion there will be some other crypto that might give us much more profit than Bitcoin mining.



As you say mining for the long term can be really profitable when the next bull run comes,many predict it to come in the 2025 year although for me it may come even earlier and I would not be surprised.If you can afford to mine at a loss go ahead and do so,other than that there is not much else you can do.You can buy the coins but it is more difficult to hodl them for the long time when you buy them rather than when you mine them because mining is a continuous process while you buy them once and just hodl.

I thought Spain to have been the biggest surprise of the World Cup only to find out now that Brazil lost to penalties and that was an amazing Croatia who scored all four penalties while Brazilian lost two something completely unexpected from them.They had attacked much better in the stats compared to Croatia but they didn't score and that was their mistake,Croatia wanted to go to penalties and they got what they wanted,however things will be difficult for them if they face Argentina which is winning now,Argentina is playing better than Brazil in this game against Netherlands.

Back on topic about on having a friend who do changed up bets whose putting up the risk of that 350k to be done then you
would really be definitely be cursing up that man.


I agree.Who would not have cursed that man,the problem is though that we have seen many times in movies that the guys who do such things ends up badly but from what I have seen in real life it is the exact opposite.I see government officials corrupted up only to sky is the limit and they had done so with my and your taxes,they get cursed by all of us but I see them securing generations to come while me and you are just getting our ridiculous salary compared to their total income.

Unfortunately in life these guys like the one who run away with the money are called smart and not cheaters because people say with just a move he secured his life.I say to people yes but at what expense?At that of another ruined life.
Bottom line life is not fair.

Web 3 is all over us in the tech discussion everywhere so most likely the companies or casinos in this case that advertise it as a true decentralization system should definitely not ask for KYC,so I believe more to be a marketing term to attract new users.That is more emphasized now in newly created casinos as there are a lot of reputable casinos with huge user base so for this new ones they need to create something to attract people and what better word than Web 3.0 casino and things alike.
5368  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [POLL] Using AI to predict outcomes on: December 09, 2022, 10:16:23 AM
ChatGPT is all the rage at the moment. I’ve seen that people are asking it to predict sporting events. Would you leave gambling decisions up to artificial intelligence? Do you see any potential drawbacks for outsourcing your bets to a software program? Has anyone here tried this yet? Do we need someone to put together a thread of ChatGPT predictions to see how accurate they are?  Any other thoughts?

I know and I am seeing all around Linkedin that everybody in the tech where I also work is talking about this so I will also say my two cents for the meter.

Will ChatGPT be more intelligent and work harder than me? No
Will ChatGPT be more cautious about events like driving than me? Probably No
Will ChatGPT be a good content writer? Yes most probably
Will ChatGPT be a good predictor for betting events ? I don't think so

The reason I don't believe it can be a good predictor is that I doubt it can also calculate the influence a referee has on a football game and thus making this tool not work.
5369  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sportsbet.io's FIFA World Cup 22 Prediction Pool Discussion thread on: December 09, 2022, 09:35:29 AM
I will watch both games I think but the first one I might miss 1st half so I had to place mega risky bet ...thinking that if this won't be a win , I might skip this world cup until the end as I'm just losing money and besides this , I have extra time to work which is mega frustrating...

We barely had only 2 games were both teams to score in 1st half so I guess it's time to have another 2...

Sounds a whole lot difficult for both teams to score in the first half especially in the Brazil game where Croatia will most likely try to defend and to make the game go to additional time and have a luck trying to qualify with penalties which can be anyone's game.

For the other game that is highly probable that even the first half both teams to score as both are strong teams with strong attacks,nevertheless I hope you win your bet.

Mercedes showed signs of improvement all season, they started barely top 10 at first, then they became arguably third, then they became clearly third best, then they even fought for second best, and maybe on the last two races competed against the very best as well. That type of improvement over course of one season, and then moving to next season where there aren't much regulation changes, means that they are going to start at the top for sure.

The real big shuffle will happen in 2026 when cars are basically new, but until then, Mercedes still has one of the best turbo engines ever, and that should give them a good chance to be at the top for sure.

Mercedes got a good improvement after the (never happened before) change of regulation in this summer.

They increased the height of all the car to reduce the purposing effect, the team with the biggest advantage was the Mercedes and the team with the biggest lost was Ferrari according to the simulations done at the time.

That is why I never agree with changing regulations in the middle of a season,you intentionally or unintentionally favor or disfavor a team and the team who you favor will have nothing to say but the one which loses will have a lot to say about the decisions of the FIA and I would agree that Ferrari lost a lot after such changes.They almost lost the battle against Mercedes as a team and they were lucky to have a great final race that made them win the second place both in drivers and constructors Championship.
5371  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slots 102: The Provably Fair Slots (with poll) on: December 09, 2022, 07:49:27 AM
After checking the updated list, I noticed that there is still one old casino that provides provably fair slot games but they are not yet in the list. The casino is playbitcoingames.com, it is an old casino but not really popular. They have 3 different slot games, they are Slots, Money Slots and Space Invasion.



I do not provide the SS for the Space Invasion only as the other 2 slots are not that attractive for me. For more information, you can visit https://www.playbitcoingames.com/games-category/slots The same as rollbot, I have not tried this game and I also have not checked the full rules about this slot games. So if you have spare time, you can check it first before added them into the list.



That is a good game and if I remember well they also run a short signature campaign here some long time ago.I have played this game a lot and I agree it is the best slot compared to the other 2 slots but I have hit it the best win in the Slots slot machine which is an american old school one.One thing is sure that they are really provably fair as they if I remember correctly have also some other side businesses beside them and they have a lot of users which have tested them.I also won several times the bonus round in Space Invasion but didn't won anything substantial.

I think in the game Brazil vs Croatia if Dalic the coach of Croatia is smart will put a team in a position to hold back and why not counter attack Brazil and I think he is smart so more than players game it is a coach game this one,Brazil never played against a strong opponent so far and Croatia is the strongest they will face compared to the teams that they already played.

The main event is in 8 a clock Pm Netherlands vs Argentina,the real test for both teams as they never have played against strong opponents so far,most likely for me Argentina to pass through because of Netherlands "bad" defending.

I think I have to retire my accusations here as I played a couple of days ago the Green Knight slot from Play n Go and it gave the bonus round a lot,truly a lot of times,I even managed to hit that x100 multiplier several times and won about 200 dollars with the lowest bet of 0.10,I won several times over x200 of my bet during the x100 multiplier and I was surprised to see how things changed so fast after me writing my experiences not only here but also in some other places,I guess it has nothing to do with corruption but only with luck  Grin.

It depends on how long summer is in your country. If you have 4 months of summer, then in the remaining 8 months, growing food will be very difficult, trumpeting time and good skills.  You can buy a house in the village and take care of your own garden when the profit from mining is enough to live on, but now everything has changed.

Grow lights changes the game, maybe the heat from miners can reduce temp in a certain area to reach an ideal growing temp.

Coins mined has value, not getting sick has value too, most people are just taking health for granted.

I am mining at home now in winter and I must say I am only running half of the rig because that is more than enough to mine ETHW which has a really low difficulty right now and by doing so I have not at all turned on the air conditioner except maybe 30 minutes maximum in the morning and 30 minutes as maximum in the evening,that is a huge savings on the bill which an air conditioner like the one I have consumes at the beginning 3000 watt and then when the inverter pulls in like 800-900 watt compared to my half mining rig at 350 watt as a maximum consumption,so I got basically some free heating by doing so.

Only 8 matches left! This have been fun  Grin I am surprised myself that I have been in first place for so long. I have to admit that I feel the pressure when I'm leading haha😂 I'm happy as long as I'm in the top 10 😁 But anything can happen when it comes to the last matches.. I wish everyone the best of luck 😁

24 points and only Morocco and Croatia as the potential upsets left... if they leave the tournament, the last games will be very very tight. You have a very strong cushion so can even afford taking 1 risk on the upset, win it and you have 2 game cushion!

See what I did there to try and convince you to take risk? Wink

24 points which I am pretty sure it will not make any difference to the people at the top if they keep hitting what most other people will hit,in fact it is exactly these other persons including me that should come out with "alternative" predictions in order to try and recover.I think though it will be very difficult for many people to try and fight their way up in the standings with just 24 points or 8 games left in the total,I personally do not expect anything despite being just 7 points away from the 10th place,I know it will be impossible for me to overtake them.
5376  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you experienced this kind of gambling on: December 08, 2022, 12:06:14 PM
That is just a pathetic attempt at hitting a huge win.It is the same as going in a physical casino,choosing the slot which has the best visuals and sound and hitting based on how many pictures this slot has on visuals and playing with that number as your bet and to happen that you win the jackpot,see how difficult it is,if not impossible.

That lucky guy in Nigeria I highly doubt he has won another time and that was more of a bingo than a correct prediction because of this guy,it happened that once in a lifetime the superstition worked but keep in mind in 100 years it can happen once or twice so not the best strategy to follow.
5377  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gates of olympus on: December 08, 2022, 11:11:17 AM
Pragmatic Play is an online slot provider that you can find them anywhere,if you don't want to directly play the game with real money and test all of the game features you can do so at their website because when you play for fun money in reputable casinos you cannot have the option to buy the bonus and to try the game with all its features.

It is one of those slot providers which is well known for huge volatility slots and not that max multiplier usually x5000-x15000 compared to other providers but it is also one of the best where many people have won the max prize compared to other providers.

What particular algorithm the RTX 4*** series are good for? The RTX 30** are good for Ergo dual mining but I know that they aren't profitable anymore, now that Ethereum stops proof of work.

RYO and Conceal ( cryptonightGPU ) ? Or KHeavyHash

Every single coin is mining at a loss with the price of cryptocurrencies nowadays and the price of electricity in most of Europe skyrocket high,does not make sense to mine so the only possibility to start doing it is if you believe in a coin that you think will explode in the next bull run which everyone is predicting to be in the year 2025.

It does not matter now whichever coin you mine,just mine what coin you think has a great developers team behind,a great roadmap and hope for the best,if you can't afford to mine for the long term then don't mine at all.
5379  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Proof Of Income Will This Pass on: December 08, 2022, 09:20:43 AM
Ok, suddenly the casino you're playing asks you for proof of income to be able to withdraw your winnings and to keep your account in good standing, your bankroll every month is $500 and you provide proof of salary that you are making $500 net every month, will they accept that proof will they accept that you are putting all your salary for gambling, will this violate the principle of gamble for fun, because you are working to gamble based on your proof income.

As long as it can justify the amount the casino have no business what I do in my life,if I gamble it all and leave my family starving to death or I have a lot of other incomes,like I may have mining,I may have objects that I have given for rent,the casinos should not give a damn about what I do and as long as I provide solid proof like the salary statement in your case here they should immediately approve them and let the withdraws go through.

If a worker from a casino want to go further,they will only lose these type of clients,he will go to other casinos who mind their own business and don't go further once the source is verified.

Morocco vs Portugal: May be the world cup for Morocco will come to an end. Portugal will not be another Spain. They will play the similar game like they did yesterday against Switzerland.
Most likely, Morocco will park once again their bus in front of their goal.  Cheesy
In general, Morocco has a great defensive, they have conceded only one goal against Canada in group stage (while Morocco was still winning that game) and I don't expect it will be easy for Portugal to score.

The best chance for Portugal is to score a goal in the first half. If not, Morocco is likely to speculate for a penalty shootout once again.
And Morocco can still be dangerous four counterattacks. A long-lasting 0-0 will make it very difficult for Portugal, similar as against Spain.

The beauty of this Moroccan squad is that they don't look like they are parking the bus, and I really don't think that phrase or description is appropriate for their style, they played in one of the toughest group for their qualification chances but they had the most attempts on goal in every single one of those games, I don't think that's an achievable feat by a team typically just parking the bus, they had a joint-most goals scored and conceded in their group stage, while Spain dominated them in ball possession and goal attempts, as expected Morocco still had the most shots on goal. I see them as very disciplined and compact team, they play every with purpose and they stick to their discipline and game plan, they're fortunate for it to have brought them this far, however I think Portugal will neutralize their game approach and this round would be the end of their journey in this tournament.

Maybe they don't park the bus full time but yes they do park it and are really great in making killing counter attacks and based on this because I know the Portugal defense is not one of the best that there is out there so they should be extremely careful.We underestimate the Moroccon side but half of their players are playing in Premier League,Bundesliga and even in PSG where plays Hakimi which also played for Real Madrid and was always a key man for the games played.
