That is why bookies try to impact our mind by offering odds different from what they should really be.Odds provider are only used for such purpose.A lot of draws yesterday in regular time as I see many games being decided after penalties.
Certainly they use different parameters that take on consideration the previous confrontation, key players presence, the international ranking of the team and how good it done in the previous qualifications...
N.Ireland isn't that awesome but also Bosnia isn't that good, the huge gap between the two odds gave many people a false impression that Bosnia will win the match without doubt, which wasn't the case at all! At the opposite, the other 5 games odds were pretty close x2.5 - x3, which will make people think twice before selecting it Undecided
5962  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA EURO 2021 Discussion Thread | Current Phase: Qualifiers! on: October 08, 2020, 10:03:43 PM
At the end Bosnia lost the game with penalty kicks! I remember odds were x1.6 for Bosnia and x6? for N.Ireland!
I wouldn't call Serbia winning the game as a surprise since I kind of expected it Tongue and definitely would recommend to stay away from betting in those too unexpected games.
5963  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2020/2021 on: October 08, 2020, 06:36:16 PM
It depends on the form of the players. Mane for example to me has lost form or is losing form compared to two years ago. We don't expect players form to continue for long because they get older as the day goes.

Dude, where have you been? Mane is probably our best player atm. He’s 28, right in the absolute peak of his career. He’s quick, strong, powerful, he has an incredible first touch, his finishing is world class. I don’t know what you’re seeing but I see one of the very best players in the world.
I agree I don't think Mane has lost his form. He is still crucial for Liverpool, you find him in defence then in the attack, fighting for the ball and scoring. In fact his absence in the last game was one of the many reasons LFC was beaten by 7 and scoring only 2 goals... Salah was kind of obliged to go back to defence several times and this exhausted him for sure, although he managed to score 2 goals.

What even was the purpose of these friendly matches?

This year they will play a ton of games (depends on COVID), they will play 2 more games next week with the nations team Roll Eyes

Only a waste of time, risk for COVID for no reason IMHO.

Agree 100% here. It's tough enough for clubs to keep their players clean and isolated. And then now with Europe third wave getting so dire, I think it's a really damn bloody idea to go travel and play friendlies and possibly get everyone contaminating each other. Schedules are packed as hell and I thought things like Nations League was supposed to replace friendlies.

I seriously don't see the point.

@coinlocket$ @slaman29 normally these friendlies are arranged to help the player’s gain their fitness, and to help the coach select his playing 11 for the upcoming international fixtures, however you’ll are right that they should have called these friendlies off due to covid. Furthermore if more stars behave like England player’s then they’ll aid in covid spreading, so let’s hope that other stars won’t be breaking any covid rules.
Not sure if money has something to do with those friendlies at least indirectly since there isn't spectators in the stadium but as mentioned previously, it helps select which player is ready for the next matches.

Was wondering what are you talking about and find out that there is 8 games today for EURO qualifiers which are medium imo..
I see except Bosnia game, bets for all the remaining matches are quite close 2x - 3x for each team which means that those games are unpredictable!
5966  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2020/2021 on: October 08, 2020, 01:50:13 PM
Everton are so strong and unbeaten are they going to lose to Liverpool in the next match?

It can't be accurately predicted . Liverpool is a big team . They are the champion team last season . But Everton are playing great this season  and till now they are unbeatable . Both team are good . Liverpool will not win against Everton if they make any small mistake on the field
Assuming that Liverpool will have its full squad in the next match and not playing as it did vs Aston Villa then it will have a higher chance to win than Everton.

Except from SEPA and North America, AFAIK most countries suffers in terms of exchanging cryptocurrencies with their FIAT.
Neteller(/skrill) used to be a good way before 2017/2018 when mastercard blocked the usage of bitcoin then recently when they disabled bitcoin deposits in many countries and restricted its transfer between members and to your bank...
There is alternatives that might allows you to spend your money online (or send it to your bank?) but you have to be cautious since you need to read the terms and be sure it isn't a scammy service to avoid losing your funds. (will not name it since I didn't use it yet)
Another alternative is to sell bitcoin directly to your friends? other citizens? in exchange to your local FIAT. You have to always pay attention to avoid being scammed.
5969  Economy / Reputation / Re: How do you get rid of the unreliable(red) trust ? on: October 07, 2020, 09:45:54 PM
A trust spammer gave me (and a lot of members) once an imaginary trust feedback while I was less than 1 month old in the forum and I am not sure if I know how the trust system works back then. Anyway I read many complaints or maybe I even posted about it. Long story short, it is unlikely that staff will remove it even if that guy is a proven fake trust abuser. - trust isn't moderated-

France 🇫🇷  vs Ukraine 🇺🇦
Olivia Giroud scoring his 42 goals and becoming France second-highest goal scorer just 9goals behind Henry is my only positive outcome tonight
His name is Olivier Giroud and not Olivia Tongue
Although that game was friendlies, France destroyed Ukraine with 7 goals to 1! Same for Italy 6-0 Moldova...
Russia - Sweden and England - Wales seems the best game for tomorrow and until the resume of Nations League Saturday.

Still too early to consider Everton a really competitor for winning the championship. If they keep up their current performance until the end of the year and are then still the leader of the table with some points ahead, then there could really be a surprise. But, we still have 34 matches to play this season. Long way to go.

Everton will be playing liverpool next and that's where their drop in point will begin. Liverpool won't want to lose two matches straight so they'll be coming with their A game. Everton on the other hand would be feeling to confident of defeating liverpool with the strategy Aston villa used but it'll not work.

I love how this season is heading, we won't be having a dominant team like we did last two season, which just take away the suspend in the premier league. Still Everton could sail their spot in the top four if they continue with this form of theirs.
Everton still has a chance to stay in the top, even the first, up to the end of November then December games are a hell of matches, since it will face Chelsea, Leicester, Arsenal and City!
The dominance will not be obvious until maybe November - December, I expect Liverpool to run away from the others. City results until now aren't good at all..
5972  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread on: October 06, 2020, 11:44:48 AM
But then, the question of how the tickets would be sold, time for testing before the start of games as I believe should be a criteria and compliance from fans as the safety rest clearly in our hands being the fans.
I assume they will create an website/platform to help selecting people, maybe a spectator is allowed to attend 1 game per 3-5 games to allow everyone to attend at least a couple of their team matches. Tickets may rise by 50-100%. I don't know if it is stated somewhere but I find it abusive to test 10k spectators! Just a thermal scan with the shitty infra red thermometer should be enough, unless they have a high reserve of unused covid tests then yeah whatever just ask them to test themselves 24-48 hours before the match...
5973  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread on: October 06, 2020, 10:07:51 AM
So, I think the people themselves will avoid coming to the stadium for their personal health.
You underestimate human craziness! If a stadium can fit 50k people then I am pretty sure 5-10k one will attend the event whatever the situation is since they are allowed to... Political rallies, some football celebration events around the world took place as there was nothing... Madness!
For the max 10k number I find it good and relatively easy to handle, it means everyone having 2? empty seats in his left and right for a 50k stadium, I think it isn't that bad.
5974  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2020/21 on: October 06, 2020, 01:41:18 AM
On matchday 5, Barcelona got a draw and Atletico Madrid also had the same result (a consecutive draw in the last two matches). Both Barcelona and Atletico Madrid aren't in a good situation, especially Atletico. They have difficulties to score, seems their front liners (strikers) cannot play well. If the coaches cannot find the solution, they will be in trouble because their opponents will take advantage of this problem. Moreover, when they play with a strong opponent like Real Madrid. Not only in La Liga, but they are probably in trouble when playing in Championship League or Copa Del Rey as well.
The problem with Atletico is the general defensive gameplay of the team and Simeone tactics. They should learn to aggressively attack the opponent and end some games with 3 or 4 goals... I don't know what's the point of finishing La Liga 3rd or 4th while you can play for the first spot especially that Real Madrid and Barcelona aren't in their best shape or maybe even the worst since many years...
5975  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2020/2021 on: October 06, 2020, 01:37:12 AM
But now we have a perfect meme because of this .
The numerical values has changed in football, it's become :

1
2
3
4
Manchester City
Manchester United
Liverpool
Barcelona
9
10
11

Wild wild premier league. If aston villa or everton remain on top for beating or get draw against the big 6 , then the Leicester hype might be apppears again.
Bookmakers brace yourself.

From the relegation fighter last season to the title contender , that would be an amazing story for the villans.
I don't think Villa will stand longtime at this position since the next 2 games are vs Leicester and Leeds which showed to be a dangerous opponent. For Everton, apart from the game against Liverpool, the other couple matches are easier so it might stay for a while in top position.
lol'd at the ranking but I believe this season the vacant number will be filled  Tongue
5976  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2020/21 on: October 05, 2020, 06:36:14 PM
The first serious test of Barcelona and immediately a misfire. Let's hope that Barcelona will pick up speed and it will take a couple of games for the players to get used to each other.
Sevilla is a good team and its latest game prove this. It stood vs Bayern and was defeated in extra time in super cup. Barcelona used to be favourite but personally I see it as a fair result for both. At the opposite I am more afraid from Real Madrid performance!

The referee than will write "One team is not present Juventus wins 3-0" as the regulation says.


So, it is a little different from the WO case, where the team cannot appeal. I think Napoli can still play this match with the rest of the players who are not exposed to COVID. Even though they must have to play a match with the reserve team, of course it will be better than not attending. Indeed, this concerns the health of many people, but the decision has been made by the organization, so Napoli must do it, IMO
What's the consequences of defying the local authority imposed isolation? AFAIK the problem isn't Napoli refusing to move to Turin but it was asked to not do so. Serie A management should contacted the local authority or at least report the game to avoid such drama Undecided
The same thing could happen to any team, imagine Juve forfeiting to Crotone next game because players are tested positive when they faced Napoli and its local authority quarantined many players Undecided

I am definitely not a meme creator but couldn't resist making this one after seeing Leicester losing with 3 goals vs...West Ham...

Here's another one...  Lolol.  I literally laughed out loud when it was sent to me.  Cheesy

https://i.imgur.com/439rbGS.jpg
Haha that was a good one indeed, like a kid crying when he destroyed his toy then laugh when the other kid crashed his one too Tongue
For Liverpool I am confident this will not happens again but for Man United, I am not sure!
5980  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: October 05, 2020, 10:16:55 AM
If it will be postpone, I think it will take weeks or a month for them to play again since Napoli players and staff has to be tested and quarantine.
No it will not. Only few players are detected positive few days ago and the next game for Napoli is scheduled after 12 days from now, so even the positive players may join the team again before next game if everything is OK.

Anyway 1-1 for Inter Vs Lazio

Does it remember anything to you?
Hell yeah, I was blaming the referee for not giving Vidal a yellow card as a prize for his dramatic acting skills. A barely slap in da face will not make a 4 years old crying nor falling like this. However the red card is deserved for the unprofessional act.
