Everton potentially to get another financial charge related to the first sanction. Nottingham Forest surely does not violate PSR rules. I know that if 4 points are not a lot but since nottingham forest is not in the relegation zone it can help club to survive being relegated to the lower division like championship league.
Nottingham coach must have pushed his players to play more than their limit. Nottingham really needs three points that will be greatly helpful to the club. I can only say that i hope nottingham will able to get their 4 points back again.
There is no other choice for Nottingham Forest, now they have entered the relegation zone and it will be increasingly difficult to improve this team. Above it is Luton Town which is also in a condition that does not guarantee that it is completely safe from the threat of the Relegation Zone, then Everton, after the sanctions they received, struggled quite hard and little by little were able to recover. In my opinion regardless of the sanctions that Everton received, their potential remains safe and they can still fight in the EPL next season. Not just this once, Everton can always escape in their own way to remain in the EPL. Everton remaining 10 matches have quite tough opponents, including 4 top clubs, who will definitely find it difficult to get additional points.

I am also saying the same thing; the benchmarks of Bayern Munich past record against Arsenal should not be taking serious this time because Arsenal this season has breaken so many records people think they can’t, and Arteta has built his team to become a good team with winning mentality.

Defeating FC Porto is not always easy, and for Arsenal to be able to eliminate them in the knockout stage, I am seeing a great future ahead which means I am seeing Arsenal reaching the Champions League finals this season.
I am not underrating Bayern Munich because there inconsistency this season, but I can see that Arsenal squad have more quality an them and are on form compared to the German giants.
Arsenal can take advantage of this inconsistency to control the game, plus coach Tuchel incompatibility with Bayern Munich players is becoming increasingly clear, especially after Bayern Munich decision to fire him at the end of this season and the latest news regarding Xabi Alonso agreement to become Tuchel's replacement. However for now Arsenal also need to be careful, their schedule in the Premier League is quite busy and they have to prepare themselves against Man City, Luton Town and Brighton. In my opinion, Arteta challenge against Bayern Munich will really drain the energy of his players who are required to maintain their health and avoid injury. Against Man City is also the most decisive match for Arsenal in order to maintain their position at the top of the standings. We'll see if Arteta succeeds in getting through this challenge with maximum results, because playing against Bayern Munich without full strength would be very risky.

I disagree with you on those bolded words. Anyone who take gambling as his main income must become an addict, because he thinks he can live on gambling for the rest of his life, which is impossible. This is because you don't want to take life serious and addiction will frustrate such person, because he will always be gambling and will say that he is hustling.
rich people or poor people can go bankrupt or have their lives ruined if they think that gambling can make money for sure or make gambling their main income, with the reality that the only thing that will happen at the end of gambling is losing, then it will drain our finances and It can be stressful if it happens. It is also a wrong idea if we make gambling a source of income in life, because winning at gambling cannot be guaranteed to be easy to obtain and it is impossible for anyone to win at gambling consistently.
It's true what you said, if someone considers gambling as a source of income, it will only make them addicted, and we all know that people who are addicted to gambling cannot accept defeat, directly addicted people will continue to gamble even though they always lose from the gambling they do. . and of course this will make the addict lose more money and maybe even end up in debt in his life, and I think that can make the addict stressed because his life becomes increasingly chaotic.

Well this is the proper ways but it seem gamblers aren't ready to pause after losing their deposited fund  the false hope given will always make them want more no matter what and this trap is and always be a strategy to pin gamblers and get them addicted to playing  it more often  to win back their lost money.
Gamblers are easily tricked with little  profit and it's humans has greediness , desire for more it's in out nature , Instead of taking the win and leaving with profit  they tend to be smart causing them more loss than their realised profit.
If they really can't accept defeat then it's likely they will have a grudge, because the unacceptable defeat makes them want to gamble again to chase victory or to recover losses, but this is certainly not true, because it is impossible for victory to come or be obtained accordingly. with our own hopes. but actions like this will only put ourselves in big trouble, because actions like this can cause big losses by chasing losses or continuing to deposit the money we have in gambling, while winning at gambling cannot be guaranteed.
That's right, indeed greed is a natural human trait, surely everyone has that trait, especially when it comes to money, of course everyone wants more when they get a certain amount of money, greed can occur when a gambler wins, there will be a sentence "you should use the right amount of bet bigger" and because of that, maybe they will continue gambling by increasing the bet amount because they still want to get an even bigger win. However, it is possible that the final result will be certain that what will happen is a defeat that will cause the victory that has been obtained to be lost again.

We should not be selfish and be the only family member who enjoy gambling, that is why we should introduce it to kids Cheesy I am joking Cheesy

People here have strange vision on life. When children appear, then we must dedicate every single second, every single cent to the kid. Dont you think that it is way to much? For example I spend a lot of time with my family and specially with the kid. There was never "I am busy" for the kid from me. Family isnt starving. We are all well dressed. We travel a lot. We arent in need of money. So why should I then drop all my hobbies and activities? For me it seems, that many think, when kid is busy doing something on his own, parents must either work, or stand will and wait when the kid has free time. So that they can immediately do something together.

Of course my without that rare gambling habit has changed. I will never go all-in with my or family entire savings. But I would not do the same even without having a child.
Your joke is good, friend.
"The family didn't starve. We all dressed nicely. We traveled a lot. We didn't need money."
Are you sure about this friend? I think that to do or fulfill all of that we have to use money, so that the family doesn't starve, we have to buy food or basic necessities which are the main need for survival, and to be able to wear nice clothes, I also think that requires money because it doesn't matter. maybe we make it ourselves, even if we make it ourselves we have to use capital. and to travel anyway, I think you need money for supplies, or preparation.
It's true that it's impossible for parents to watch their children all day long, because they also have to work to make money. isn't that right, friend?
If you already have children, it is better for us to limit our gambling activities if we really like gambling. Don't let your family become neglected because we only think about our habits, which is not the right behavior. we have to pay attention to our family, and don't gamble if you don't have money.
566  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slot game with increasing RTP on: March 25, 2024, 05:34:58 PM
Makes sense. Many folks believe that games with high RTPs offer better winning odds but let's not forget that the house always has the upper hand. Gambling involves risk and relying solely on RTP doesn't guarantee wins. I'm with you on this one that luck seems to be the driving force in slot gambling. Personal experiences often shape our views and your encounters highlight how luck outweighs RTP in actual wins. Whether someone factors in RTP or not, it's ultimately up to personal preference and experience
I also think that's the case, there are some gamblers who believe that a high RTP can easily win, even though in reality it's not like that, because in my opinion, if this method really works by making it easier for gamblers to win, I don't think there will be many cases of losses due to gambling. Gamblers must know the fact that the home advantage is always guaranteed to win as you said, therefore, even though the host provides an RTP, I think, that is one of their strategies to convince gamblers to gamble without hesitation.

I agree with you, indeed if we depend on RTP it cannot guarantee that we can win easily because the home advantage cannot be changed, the decisions made by the host cannot be denied. In my opinion, winning at gambling is just about luck, if we are lucky then we will win, and if we are not lucky, only defeat will happen. but maybe people who believe that RTP can give them a win because they have too much hope, so they think that with RTP they can win easily.

I admire Arsenal's performance in the Premier League. I haven't anything to say against that. They are even the most scorer team in the league in addition to their being the leader there now.  Smiley

But we don't see the same team in the Champions League. I assume you would agree with me on that as well. We can't say their performances here so far have been very consistent. We have all seen how much they struggled against Porto. There is still a point that they can benefit from though. Bayern Munich's performance in the Champions League hasn't been amazing either. If Arsenal manage to make big difficulties for their defense then things can get really interesting.

The Champions League is a really different arena. Real Madrid have done great things in this tournament in the past, even when they were very bad in the league. Arsenal, when they were very good in the league, are not as good as expected in this tournament. The Champions League has a different ambiance. And I have to say that Arsenal vs Bayern Munich is a match I will never bet on. Maybe I will bet on both teams to score a goal. But I think it is very difficult to know which team will win, and which team will advance to the next round.
Talking about Arsenal against Bayern Munich is indeed very interesting, because this season Arsenal managed to qualify for the quarter finals so there are many positive assumptions which have made the public enthusiastic, especially Arsenal fans. Facing Bayern Munich, we were a little worried, but if we managed to overcome this threat, Arsenal had great potential to advance to the final. However based on the advantages of each, I also quite agree that it is difficult to make a choice. Arsenal, playing at home, has a positive record, this cannot be taken lightly by Tuchel troops. No matter how great Bayern Munich is, what they are facing is a team that never gives up. When it comes to the mental readiness of Bayern Munich players, they are definitely more stable, in my opinion this is just a matter of Arteta tactics against Tuchel and Bayern Munich's history of winning in the past cannot be used as a benchmark.

For now, Arsenal has a chance of winning above 45% as hosts and Bayern Munich 27%. I think it is worth noting Arsenal's level of seriousness in welcoming Bayern Munich to the Emirates Stadium.
568  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Where is the fun when you lose your money? on: March 25, 2024, 03:00:03 PM
When one is defeated in gambling and they feel sad about it, well such people don't understand what gambling is all about, if truly people understand gambling there will be no emotions or reactions when they gamble, its a way to cheat a system without working, and money isn't Meant to be made this easily, you should have seen the whole picture already.

Automatically you meant to lose when gambling, because of the way you plan yto make money, its not a fair way, rolling some buttons and hoping to turn into a millionaire, just like that? Its obvious that it won't be easy....

To avoid disrupting my mental health is why I choose to risk a figure in gambling, if you are worth six figures and all you risk is a figure, you can never be broke because of gambling, you can never be sad because of gambling, you can never lose your self-control because of gambling, all it takes is just one discipline, that is keep using what you can afford to lose.
This may be more precisely felt by gamblers whose goal in gambling is to seek victory or profit. because in this way they will not be able to accept the defeat that will clearly occur with the gambling they are doing, and it is true that this is a wrong assumption. because as you said, if they really understand real gambling, then when the gambling they do ends up losing, they won't mind it because they clearly know that this is something that definitely happens in gambling, in other words, they really understand what gambling is.
The provisions made by the host are clear that they are also looking for profit, it is true what you said, to win at gambling is not easy, it is not like just turning the palm of your hand. Luck may have a big role in gambling to determine whether you win or not. That's why it's important that we have to be prepared for the money that is at stake, the money allocated for gambling must be calculated or calculated and ready to be lost, and we must be able to respond to it correctly, instead of responding to it incorrectly, it will only bring greater losses because of the emergence of emotions. I agree with you, discipline in gambling is one of the keys to avoiding big losses. or other things that trigger gambling to become uncontrolled.
569  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Rich or poor gambler, who should risk more? on: March 25, 2024, 02:40:09 PM
but what is clear is that poor or rich people still have to be able to limit their gambling and be able to manage their finances well, and don't expect to be able to get money for sure from gambling.

High rollers must limit their gambling habit for their mental health, not just about money. Sure, people have lots of money, and one could say it's limitless, but it's worthless if the person doesn't enjoy the funds. Risk or not, our psychology must be safeguarded with lots of caution. Gamblers who gamble for money, rich or poor, must be careful not to get carried away by this behavior. Nothing finishes generational health like health issues or sickness. Mental health is way better than money. I think the risk should change from making more money to better stable health. As a member said, any gambler who is able to avoid problem gamblers should be tagged a successful gambler. The risk of chasing money is not crucial anymore.

A rich player will risk it all just to lose more than he's made later. That's a waste of risk. Then he'll face anxiety and depression in the future if he's lost too many and gets indebted. Most rich players got broke and owe a whopping amount of money in debt. Hence, they can only sustain them for a few more years until they'll have no spare cash as backup. What makes up rich is being able to sustain wealth, not losing it all the time. A company, not an individual, that continuously loses money will definitely go bankrupt. Not all rich men are richer than most companies that went bankrupt. Hence, losing money consistently regardless of how we've got we'd go broke in no distance. Money is meant to be managed.

that's true, not even just the high rollers, I think everyone needs to do that, because it will help them avoid huge losses that could occur if they don't have set limits on the gambling they do. Even though someone has a lot of money, they won't mind the possibility of losing at gambling, but in my opinion it should be like that, if the gambling that is done ends in defeat then we have to be able to accept the fact, don't think about it because it won't change the situation for the better. well, most likely it will only bring disaster. As you said, mental health will be affected if we cannot limit the gambling we do, because there are big risks that cannot be avoided when the gambling we do is excessive.
even though they have a lot of money and make large bets and then lose a large amount of money in gambling, there is definitely a possibility that there will be anxiety which leads to depression as you said, because I think everyone's emotions can change at any time. Of course, it's impossible for everything to be fine, there is a possibility that when they lose they will also feel annoyed or disappointed even though they have lots of spare money.

Viewing gambling as an entertaining game is something that is difficult for anyone to do. All current daily living expenses are settled with money. Even rich people, when participating in this game of chance, want to earn additional profits from gambling. Money is very important. Therefore, when anyone plays a game related to money, everyone wants to be the winner and regretfully wants to get back the lost money.

I think there are probably only a few people who consider gambling an entertaining game. When gambling, I think I should have a strong stance. Set strict goals and well-timed stops, and Gamble with money you can afford to lose. Only then will you be able to stay calm, not regret, and chase after the lost money.
Gambling is not difficult to do, why many people experience big losses due to gambling is because gambling is easy for everyone to do. and also in my opinion the steps are easy. What you say is true, of course everyone when it comes to money what they want is victory and big profits, because that is something that absolutely everyone wants. but the problem is that this desire often opens the door to big problems such as losses because with this desire we can gamble excessively and of course that is not good.
That's true, not many people gamble with the aim of having fun, because many gamblers who gamble their main aim is to win, and for those who gamble with the aim of entertainment, it's impossible for them not to want to win, I think They also want to win but they can control themselves so that no big losses occur because their actions are controlled and their thinking does not encourage excessive gambling.

As you get involved in the upbringing of a family you lose time to the family and have less free time for your vices and hence they are no longer attractive. This is perpetuated if both parents are involved, if only one is involved, the other will continue their older lifestyle like usual.

Eventually their addiction will relapse but this can be a good impetus to control it and if effectively done can end the addiction for ever.

Still for some it is tough and it will be difficult for them to balance both eventually leading to dysfunctional families.

I believe that once you have a family, it is necessary that you will focus more on them and their needs. If you know that your gambling habit will have a big impact on having your own family, you will come to the point where you will have to choose who you need to let go of, surely you will choose your vices, right? It's hard to do especially when you're used to it, but it doesn't mean that once you have a family you will immediately break your habit, you have to go through the right process to get rid of it more smoothly. I know others whose parents are addicted to gambling and that's when I saw the impact of what they do on their children. There are other children who imitate their parents, some of them do not have a good relationship to their parents and the worst is having a broken family because of the vices of the parents.

When we have a small family, we have to let go of all the selfishness we have, including our enjoyment of gambling. I mean even though we can gamble very responsibly, we must prioritize our responsibilities to our family. If we are men, then we are the head of the family, and as a family we must set a good example. If we can fulfill all our family's needs, and we can guarantee that, then in my opinion it's okay to gamble. However, if we feel there is still something missing, then we should not do that.
Especially if we already have a child, our responsibilities will increase as a father, and we must be able to ensure we can meet all their needs. For me, gambling is an ego that we have to create pleasure. And we can suppress the ego that we have because there are responsibilities that must be prioritized. I believe we can do it if we are truly aware of the things we should prioritize in life. We can't always just do what we want, because there is something more important than that.

But the problem now is that we are worried about Kevin De Bruyne's injury. I am sure that if De Bruyne cannot appear in the Man City vs Arsenal match then it could be a big loss for Man City. Because we know that De Bruyne is the best there who can move the ball into the attack line very smoothly and make the squad score more goals. Now the news is that De Bruyne is injured again but what I read is that it is a groin injury or something similar. I forget. But it doesn't seem to be the same injury that kept De Bruyne out for so long since the start of the season.

I hope Man City and Arsenal can play with their best squad. Because the match will not be balanced if one of the mainstay players from each team cannot play.
De Bruyne misses friendly matches for the Belgium national team due to a groin injury. As far as we know, the injury is minor, most likely just a sprain, but apparently Guardiola does not want to take risks before important matches and in order not to put additional stress on the KDB, he decided to stay in the team to recover. This is the right decision, because if De Bruyne is added to Ederson at this stage, it will weaken the team. In addition, friendly matches are not so important at this stage, so they can be skipped without harm to the national team.
If Kevin de Bruyne has to be sidelined again because he is injured again, then that will clearly be a loss for Manchester City. After all, Manchester City is currently facing a very crucial period in the Premier League. game by game will be very important for them, and if they have to play without their main players then it might make it more difficult for them than usual. Because after all, Kevin de Bruyne has become a very important player, especially when they attack, his creativity is really needed in every match.
I heard it was a minor injury, but whether it is minor or not it is an injury that requires the player to rest to recover. I haven't heard how long he has to rest, but I hope he can recover as soon as possible to return to helping Manchester City, especially when they have a very important match in determining their future in a competition, be it in the English League, or even in the Champions League. . His role is really needed by Manchester City.
573  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: March 25, 2024, 08:40:55 AM
Quote from: MK-74
Milan will have a hard time against Fiorentina, but they will not lose. The league champion is now clear, but the competition with Juventus for the 2nd place continues.
My prediction is that Milan will win this game and keep the points difference with Juventus.

If Fiorentina can handle the match like the way they handle their last two matches, I think it will be difficult for Milan to take victory from this match to achieve three points because Fiorentina know how  to battle with strong teams to ensure they win the match or draw the match to share points with them. Juventus still have the opportunity to continue to maintain the second position in the Italian league competition table, if their manager can find solution to their midfield before their next match because they still have potential strikers who knows how to score goals that will bring victory to the team. I know that Milan will not see such opportunity from this match to defeat their opponent, because their opponent will be the one to achieve the victory.

Fiorentina will not let AC MIlan beat them easily, moreover Fiorentina will play as hosts in this match, of course their status will be in their favor. Fiorentina must be aware of the strength of the opponent they will face who are currently in 2nd place, if they don't win, then they will try to prevent AC Milan from winning and only achieve a draw. This opportunity is quite open for Fiorentina in this match.
AC Milan came with a different target, they wanted to win to maintain their position in the current standings. They brought good capital by achieving 3 consecutive wins before they faced Fiorentina in this match. Yes, they want to win at least to be able to stay in second place in the standings until the end of the season, because if they want to win to be able to catch up with Inter Milan that is very difficult and even impossible at the moment. The reason is that their distance from Inter Milan is too far to catch up and it would be a miracle if they were able to do that because Inter Milan itself is in very good condition.

some news in this boring break for the national teams.

Mbappe will not announce anything regarding his future as long as there is a possibility that Real Madrid and PSG could meet during the cup.
Juventus is interested in Mason Greenwood, who is currently on loan. the price should be low as the player only has one year left on his contract with Manchester.
Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid, let's wait till the deal is been finally triggered. There are shocking news in football, we just have keep listening ears on ground because what's coming would seem surprising to our eyes and most of us will find it hard to believe. For me, I'm already open up and will accept the legit news which will be flowing in anytime soon. Besides I can't be easily deceived or following rumors, just patiently wait for the top football journalist, Fabrizio Romano to make posts on his page, that's probably where I get my information and stay updated with football trends.
Yes, we have to follow developments, but we also shouldn't just swallow the information that comes, especially if it comes from sources that are not clear at all, we must still hear direct confirmation from the players or teams themselves. One reliable source comes from Fabrizio Romano, what he has conveyed so far has very high accuracy, that's why I always see news that comes from Fabrizio.
Regarding Mbappe's future, until now as usual, the news circulating has always linked Real Madrid, it almost happens every season and maybe this season it will become a reality. However, we also cannot fully confirm whether this will become a reality or not, because they are still carrying out the process that can bring Mbappe to Santiago Bernabeu. This process is difficult because Paris Saint Germain itself still wants to keep this player, but we know that since last season Mbappe has always insisted on leaving Paris Saint Germain. Let's just enjoy the news circulating now while waiting for definite information.
575  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Stop gambling if you don’t have free time to do it on: March 24, 2024, 01:00:31 PM
Those who gamble for 24 hours a day can become an addictive gamblers and they will not be able to perform other essential works of the day. A person can only enjoy gambling and will not be addicted if he gamble in his free time or during a holiday otherwise it will make you addictive.

First a person will face financial loss, after which he will loss all his relationships and then his health will gradually become worse day by day due to lack of money, burden of borrowed money and due to no cash to continue gambling for the recovery of lost cash.
24 hours a day means they don't stop gambling for days, I can't imagine how much money they lose if they gamble 24 hours a day. because by looking at the advantage that the host has, it is bigger than us as ordinary players, where the gambling we do will only end in defeat, not victory, also in my opinion, even if we win at gambling and continue it won't last long, no will be able to get victory by continuing and continuing it doesn't make sense.
In my opinion, if we only gamble once, it can make us addicted to continuing to gamble because there is a strong pull and temptation factor in gambling, the fact that we lose will make us curious and when we win it will make us addicted, especially if we can't control it. self. then most likely we will not be able to stop gambling and of course it will damage our finances. It's very scary if gambling is done 24 hours a day, because in my opinion just one gambling can cause losses.
576  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Rich or poor gambler, who should risk more? on: March 24, 2024, 12:38:56 PM
Because it's a complex problem.

We can agree the rich have advantages and the poor don't have any advantages when they're young. But we can know how good they manage their money when they already 40-50 years old regardless they get paid minimum or high amount salary.

The poor mindset don't know how to manage money, either they're uneducated or it's their own belief who adopt YOLO lifestyle.

The advantage of rich people, in my opinion, is that they have a lot of spare money. So when they gamble and the gambling they do loses, they won't mind it because they still have spare money. In my opinion, rich or not, but if we do gamble then we should be able to accept defeat which will definitely happen and not worry about the defeat that occurs, because if we think about it hard it won't change the situation, the money lost in gambling won't change. will come back even if we think hard about the defeat.
and with poor people, they gamble, of course they really hope to win, because the winnings they get can help their finances or their needs, but with the fact that defeat is likely to occur, they are not prepared for this, so when they lose it is possible makes them annoyed or becomes an additional burden on their minds, which really doesn't have to happen. but what is clear is that poor or rich people still have to be able to limit their gambling and be able to manage their finances well, and don't expect to be able to get money for sure from gambling.
577  Other / Off-topic / Re: Dont chase your loss on: March 24, 2024, 12:20:02 PM
Indeed, the key is self-control, because with good self-control everything will be fine, including the gambling you do. If gambling is done with good self-control then there will be no emotions that will destroy the gambling being done, because if gambling is done with emotions then what will happen is chaos with rash actions. There have been many bad incidents with gambling done because of overflowing emotions. In my opinion, it's not just gambling, it's the same with other things, if we do it when we're emotional then what's likely to happen is chaos.
It's true that we have to be able to maintain self-control, but I believe controlling emotions is difficult, especially when the results of the gambling are not good, and if the gambler cannot accept that then emotions will control everything. then losses and other bad impacts can no longer be avoided. So it is important to control yourself and control your emotions properly when gambling.
Your points are good, but the part you mentioned that controlling emotion is difficult is the part I do not so much agree with. What you admit is difficult is what will be difficult for you, and what you agree is easy is what will be easy for you. Even if it is not easy, your dedicated effort can still prevail to your advantage. The reason why I emphasized on that is that the problem most gamblers are facing in this regard is due to their unwilling nature to fight as they ought to, they relax too much and give up so quickly, but these are not helpful to gamblers. The more we entertain our weakness, the more it bites and becomes an issue for us. The weakness of most gamblers is emotional and not the lack of luck or skills to gamble, and even if they planned best, emotion will still strike. This emotion of a thing is psychological and has to be handled psychologically and with strong determination and not the handling of levity.

This is possibly going to work if the gambler has a strong Will and Mind to fight and put things in the right state in their minds and also make sure that their plans are worked out as they should, which entails the control of our minds. Who says we can't control it? Once we are disciplined and determined at the said time, before we know it, we will see it done easily as if it was our daily doing that demands not much stress or effort on our part. But the moment we see it as difficult, the more it becomes difficult which is what most gamblers are suffering from. It depends on what you feed the mind.

The reason I say controlling emotions is difficult, because when we do gambling then it will change everything especially if we cannot resist the temptation of gambling which is strong, there is a possibility that we can experience bad things because we cannot resist the temptation of gambling. because if we cannot control our emotions or self, there will be arbitrary decisions that are not considered first, only a few people who in my opinion can control their emotions with the final results of the gambling that is done.

Well, with the number of people who have suffered huge losses and other problems I think it's because they are not disciplined in their gambling actions and that means they can't control themselves. This is true, I have heard it directly from a parent who gave direction to his students, he said that if the child thinks that what he is doing is difficult, the truth will be difficult, so the parent told him not to think it is difficult. Whether that's true or not I don't know. What is clear is that if gamblers gamble often or pursue losses I think they cannot control their emotions and themselves.

Gambling is supposed to be a fun based activity not a job nor a career. This is part of the things that lead to gambling addiction. The more seriously a person tends to take gambling the more time and money they would definitely invest into it and boom they end up spending way too much time and even money on gambling activities and stakes. As a responsible gambler, your idea and the way you view gambling matters a lot as it is what will determine how much time and money you invest into gambling activities.
If someone is a worker at a casino probably a traditional casino or an online one it is a different case but as a customer spending that much time would definitely lead to addiction.
Yep... agree... pushing our luck too much every day is not the best thing to survive and I think that will only happen in television series... maybe you heard that there is a gambling professional in this world, but I also suspect that he has something like special access in the games he plays or maybe cheats so he can still make profit every day. In gambling, I always feel that our win rate is very small, so the only thing that makes sense is that our luck is also very small and cannot be used to meet our needs.

Until now, the best approach to gambling is none other than to have fun and also to fill your free time. Even though you see people who are too maniacal and too crazy about gambling, you shouldn't be in their position either because I'm sure you know what dangerous things haunt people like that.
If we can make gambling a career or job, then now there are many people who say that they work as gamblers, but I have never heard anyone say they work as a gambler, which means this has invalidated the OP's question, unless they who own casinos, that's a different story, because they're doing business in a gambling hall, not gambling.
It would be very strange if someone thought they could do gambling as a career or job. Work is an activity that will bring in money, whereas when gambling we have to spend money first and even then the risk of losing is very large.
From the start, we have said that it is best to make gambling an activity just for fun. We only need to bring money that we can afford to lose and play gambling. It is a safe way to enjoy gambling, because if we think gambling can be a career or job, then we will always chase winning, and that is the wrong thing to do. Because once again the risk of losing is greater than the chance of winning.

Yes, of course Lyon is able to survive in league 1 and since the start of the season when Lyon experienced a decline in performance I still believe this club is one of the popular clubs that will continue to maintain its reputation even though it often experiences a decline in performance without any definite clarity but still when it comes to the end of the season Lyon will start to rise to get a safe position in league 1.
Currently, Lyon has succeeded in occupying a top 10 position and I am sure that after this season's matches end, it is very likely that Lyon will finish in 7th or 9th position in the points table.
Lyon surprised me lately because with the poor start they had this season, I did not expect Lyon to come this far before the end of the season because I was expecting them to be relegated due to their poor performance, but lately, they regain their balance and were able to move up and left the relegation zone on time.
If Lyon keep performing well, they can make it to the Europa Conference League or even the Europa League next season.
Lyon managed to recover so that they can slowly distance themselves from the relegation zone this season. At the start of the season they were very disappointing, and fortunately the management was able to move quickly to appoint a new coach who would be able to bring fresh air to Lyon, and they succeeded in doing that. Yes, even though they are in the middle of the table, it is very good compared to their ranking at the start of the season because they have to struggle with their position which is very threatened by the red zone.
This is a form of success from management, where they realized that something was wrong with the team and they immediately moved quickly to fix it and now we can see the better results they can show. Things like this are what a team must have, they must act quickly with careful consideration when they see something wrong in their team. However, moving quickly is also not good without careful consideration, so everything must be considered carefully before making a decision.

Madrid knows how to face its opponents, especially Bilbao, so in my personal opinion there will be no difficulties for Madrid when facing Bilbao, Madrid always dominates in every match, Ancelotti knows how to provide an effective strategy, when facing Osasuna who passed by, Madrid conceded enough goals. fast in the 7th minute but finally the score changed to 2-4 at the end of the match with Madrid winning.  The international break is nothing for the Madrid squad because the training they do is very consistent and disciplined.
You can't compare a 12th placed Osasuna to a 4th placed Bilbao and I bet you had it been Bilbao who had that two goal lead, I doubt it would have been easy for Madrid to come from under and win. I've noticed something about the Los Blancos and that's if they are losing by a goal or two, they become desperate and start commiting fouls and making silly mistakes. In this period of the campaign is when clubs will be looking to take a bite at Madrid.
You're right, it's unfair to compare Osasuna and Atletico Bilbao, even in the standings we can see the difference between these two teams this season. And if it was Atletico Bilbao who did it, I agree it would probably be more difficult for Real Madrid to turn things around.
Atletico Bilbao is a tough opponent for Real Madrid, they must not underestimate their opponents this time. Atletico Bilbao has the ability to make Real Madrid lose points in this match, especially since they really need a win to maintain their position so they can stay in the top 4 standings.
Whatever Atletico Bilbao will do to get them points in this match, they will appear full of motivation to beat Real Madrid. Meanwhile for Real Madrid, they also need to win, because if they lose they will be closer to their closest competitor, and that is something that is not good for them. This is a home match for Real Madrid, they must be able to ensure they can give a win to their supporters in the stadium and make them comfortable at the top of the standings.
