The Red card shouldn't be an excuses as without the penalty manchester united won't have gotten a goal in the game. They played badly and deserve the lost. It was a boring game to watch, losing 4-1 at the first half and the team didn't show any signs of wanting to perfume a comeback.

Tottenham on the hand were brilliant, wasn't happy seeing son getting substituted when he already has a brace and was on the way of getting a hat trick. Mourinho must be very proud of his win 6-1 that's something you don't see often.

I have read a lot of theories about NBA being rigged and a little portion of me were convince, so I would like to ask you.

If you believe it's rigged, is it a disadvantage or advantage to us bettors?

I have read similarities article but non was able to convince me beyond any reasonable doubt as most scenario that get attributed to the gane getting rigged are just coincidence that can't be understood.
If you watch soccer more often you'll realize similar event occurs and you'll begin to think the referee was bought.
Lets assume the game was rigged then it should had been exposed by now as it'll be giving a negative reputation the to the sport.

Manchester city grip on the English premier league is becoming slippery, the league has evolved to meet up with it Manchester city- the league has a new era and That is Liverpool. Manchester city can't complain of players, the made significant amount of signings. They have to go back and find themselves again, this is a season of upset.

Manchester has lost it totally, it begins to look like the other reason they were that good for the years they were domination was because the league didn't have as good players as they currently have. No disrespect to Lead though as they played absolutely well. They didn't seat back and watch city play instead went in hard and got a positive result.

The Chelsea vs Crystal palace match was a boring one to watch for the first half but things became more interesting in the second. Chelsea dominated that game with else and they meited their win.

Manchester utd against tottenham is always a high-ranking challenge and such must be considered, and it is true that manchester in certain circumstances last year left something to be desired, but it is always a top team, I believe that this year they can safely play for second place in the standings, the potential is there

Manchester united has this completive spirit that comes into the squad when they're playing against a big team but lack the winning mentality for small clubs that they should used to secured points. It won't be surprising if manchester united defeats spur but I'm thinking the game won't end in a win for either clubs.
The likelihood of a draw (maybe goal less draw) is there. Mourinho won't want to be disgraced in his former clubs and would be playing a defensive game to counter United attacking style of football.
5445  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Betting small amounts on a lot of matches or big amount on couple of matches? on: October 01, 2020, 06:11:46 AM
Should I go for bigger amount of bets on few matches or stay with current strategy (placing many bets of small amounts)?

Don't rely on others opinion to make decisions that affects you financially. Don't get greedy, continue making your small bets if that's what works for you. If you decide to go big and you're not emotionally ready for what ever outcome it results to, you would get disappointed and probably end up depressed.
Gambling is a game that favors different individuals differently. I bet big although those are bet I reduced the risk by not getting over excited with odds.

Lets not act as if the come back successfully perfemored by the Chelsea teams wasn't a thing of beauty. Been 3 goals down at first and coming back at the 50th plus minute in the second half to score the first goal from a brilliant strike from Mount and later going on to draw the match was just sometimes beautiful to watch.
It would had been more fun if we went on to win the game but a draw is something I'm ok with as far we didn't drop all points. The new signings are yet to put on a brilliant performance ending with goals but I'll wait and not to pressure them since it's still early.

According to rumors, Juventus is pushing for Pogba again  Shocked.

They are doing whatever they can maybe in a loan? This not means he will come back but they are trying again, last attempt (for this year).

I was thinking by this time pogba would already be a juventus player. Manchester united is killing his progressional career and the sooner he leave the better for him. Pogba is a world class player and deserve to play along the bests in the game like C. Ronaldo to bring out the best in him.
United is surviving on past glory, there isn't much they can bring to the table when top clubs are brought into the discussion. If he doesn't fancy juventus then he should push his leave to other top clubs like real madrid or barcelona.

With the team spending 200 million dollars this year alone, I was a little disappointed with the performance when Chelsea vs Liverpool ago...
The defeat against Liverpool in the past has become a handicap for Chelsea, but as a Chelsea fan continue to hope that there will be no more defeats in the future, 'Chelsea lifting the trophy this season is a fixed price'.

You guys ask as if Chelsea was given the privilege to spend in the past window when other teams were busy buying players and Buidling their teams. All Chelsea had were academy boys and court case to fight. Finally we were lucky to win and reduce our fine and now people are mad because we have spare funds to spend and they don't.
The match against liverpool wasn't a fair one although we lost. You don't expect a 10 team squad to win the champions. We gave our best but lacking some key players to make our impact felt.

People like that, who's so into gambling will never listen to anybody. Its only after he losses everything then he'll realize what his mistakes are. Probably, let him be for now, because his mindset right now is focused on recovering his losses. That's why he'll never stop until he wages the last money he has. When that time comes never give him anything, even if he begs you. You can always help him by giving food.

Most of them don't even realize that they're addictive and become aggressive when they're cautioned. The worst mistake is them wanting to get back their fund after loosing it. If I was to advise the users I'll suggest he retain from gambling for sometime to avoid his emotions overshadowing his decision making.

I haven’t looked at campaign conditions for some time, but a merit or two per month should not be that tough for any persistent decent enough poster.

All the campaign I have seen requires a minimum of 5 earned merit in the last 120 days which isn't much but for some members like us that most of our content aren't visible to a broad number of users it becomes difficult to achieve just 1 merit in months. Not trying to say I'm that quality poster that doesn't get merit but judging from my observation so far although the merit are circulating around, it isn't that easy for some average users to recieve them.
One thing is certain (responding to the question in the main thread), the forum needs both set of individual to function but you should try as much as you can to be in the positive side which is been an asset and in some way I believe I'm an asset, if I'm not to the forum then I'm to myself an asset.

Just retired after dropping this complain and I got a view of how the bet are to be placed so I guess it was all my fault and not that of the site. Maybe my network wasn't strong when I tried accessing the site but everything working fine since then.
For the bet, the odds are against democratic but I think they'll emerge the winners as everyone's is tired of Trumps incapability to governed the United States. Am I the only one, thinking in this direction?

Congrats to Leeds fan, promotion well deserved. They showed why they were favorites to win Championship and get promotion this season.

Well someone should tell them they aren't coming to an inferior league like the one they're getting promoted from. I hate when teams get promoted yet couldn't retain the pressure of the league and end up getting relegated the next season. The promoted teams should bring in their A game as teams like wolves and Sheffield United did not not disappointing their fans as Norwich did.
Well let me give them a benefit of doubt to see how they perform, wishing them the best though.

Let me be the first to welcome you (Pokershares) to the forum. I picked interest in your sites as it offers the opportunity to place bet on the incoming US election but I'm a little bit confused as I tried navigating to the politics menu on the site, I didn't get any information whatsoever or do we have to create an account before we get full access to the site because aa i tried leaving the registration page it gave me a warning.
I love how well the site is design, looking forward to your response to my inquiry.
5454  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How Altcoins Failed To Win Over Bitcoin on: July 18, 2020, 09:33:18 AM
Most altcoins lack authenticity, they're not original instead copying already layout blueprint by other blockchain so how then do you expect people to trust their money into investing in a project that basically copied an already existing project. The coins that are original are actually doing well but just few copycat are succeeding although it isn't for long term as they'll definitely be dump for other copycat that looks promising.
Bitcoin has the trust of the community because of its many years of accountability, until an altcoin is able to achieve that, we're far from having another coin as successful as bitcoin.
5455  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How to know if gambling sites are legit? on: July 18, 2020, 09:26:45 AM
There are many factors to consider before doing placing bet on a site you haven't played before.
-Withdrawal and deposit issues.
-Bonuses when depositing.
-Fake results,

A gambling site with scamming intention can make their sportbook look legit until they're ready to perform an exit scam with gamblers and investor funds. So although your suggestion could go a long way in preventing scams, still gamblers shouldn't only rely on them but with the suggestion already mentioned above in combinations with yours will be a perfect combination to help prevent regretting patronizing scamming gambling site.
5456  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Why are crypto transaction fees so high on: July 18, 2020, 09:15:34 AM
Was about asking same questions as I used my electrum wallet recently to execute a transaction when I inputed the fess to confirm in approximately 10 blocks it gave me a warning that my fees was too high for the amount I was about sending.
I did reduced the fees to confirm in approximately 25 blocks but my wallet also gave me a warning that the fees was too high. That fee was the lowest my wallet provided which made me to spent nearly $1.5 in processing a transaction under $10. That was just too high but I guess that's the scarifies we have to offer in supporting a technology still developing.
5457  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What does the police do if they seize bitcoin from criminals? on: July 15, 2020, 12:41:26 PM
Bitcoin is no different from other assets or currency seized from the hands of criminals. Same fate before bitcoin as that of real estate, cars, physical cash etc. They'll either be returned to the rightfully owner if that can be proven or auction and used to fund the government or anti-crime organization that must has seized the bitcoin.
Just some questions though, why are the coins held by the Bulgaria government still in their holdings or are they holders too?
5458  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bank of America now treats BTC and ETH as Cash on: July 15, 2020, 08:00:25 AM
Reportedly US Banks are going the treat Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and all crypto purchases same as Cash. In the crypto economy, this move is going to be a milestone. Cool

Wow that's a welcome development and something the community has been wanting for a very long time but before you get our hopes all up, can I see some references or source of your news as news like this can easily be published by any  media house without an authentic source. While this is welcoming, the US bank should also realized not all cryptocurrency are cash as some are utility token.
They're mainly used as asset instead of what we mainly mistake it to be like ethereum that isn't a currreny.
5459  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: July 07, 2020, 08:48:52 AM
Another round of the Premier League starts today.I am still tempted to play Chelsea,Manchester United,Liverpool and Manchester City to win but I think I will limit myself to only Chelsea and Manchester United which have something to play for.I think any result can happen in Liverpool and Manchester City game as they don’t play for any objective right now.

Manchester United has been on an impressive run since the restart of the league and I don't think they'll be slowing down anything soon. I still back them to make top 4, Chelsea also has what it takes to fight for the top spot so Leicester city are those who will be the biggest loser in the current top 4 as they're more likely to lose that spot to either Chelsea or Manchester United.
The game against Aston Villa is an easy three points with goals above 2 and hopefully Manchester United can keep a clean sheet too.
5460  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you feel this pressure on physical gambling? on: May 14, 2020, 08:42:02 AM
In physical gambling (whether it's a big casino or just small gambling), do pressure on your opponents or playmates actually happen? Like for example, you only set a limited capital but since your friends still want to play, you will end up using all of your money.

It does happen and I have experience it personally, the capital example was a perfect one because from my findings that's the most trick they use to convince you. They make you think that by not continue paying, you're chickening out. But in online gambling there's no one to presume you into gambling if you exceeded your gambling limit for that particular game or day.
