When I see the match between Inter and Juventus tonight, I remember the bet I made years ago.
It was my last match and Juventus was in form again at that time and I played Juventus invincible, but with the goal of Obafemi Martins, Inter won the match 1-0 and my bet lost in the last match.
There is a match again today and I have a feeling that Inter will win the match again. Let's see if my totem will hold up.

I don't know exactly which year you are talking about, but Juventus had a much better squad in the past. I don't think they have as good a squad as Inter today. They are still one of the best teams in Serie A but they are not as good as they used to be and I don't think they are as good as Inter. First of all they don't have a good striker. Vlahovic doesn't perform the same every game. However, Inter have Lautora Martinez. He is a consistent striker. They also have top midfielders like Mikhitarian and Hakan Çalhanoğlu. Derby games are always unpredictable, but I think Inter will win this match.

Arsenal have started the game really fast.  Smiley  Liverpool were giving them big spaces and Arsenal finally scored to get ahead by 1-0. Klopp must be really unhappy with the performance level he has seen so far. Liverpool need to improve their game defensively and offensively both. I think this is still a match that Liverpool can win. Arsenal are always likely to make mistakes in big matches when they face a strong team performance.

For now Liverpool are struggling to get past their own half on the pitch.  Sad

Arsenal played much better than Liverpool in the first half. Martinelli used the left side as a corridor. Klopp needs to take some precautions for him in the second half. Liverpool defended well as a team and didn't give Arsenal many clear positions. Arteta needs to do something in the second half to solve the Liverpool defense which closed well.

Ohh! As I was writing my comment Arsenal made a huge mistake in defense and Liverpool equalized. They were really lucky. They equalized with a lucky goal when the game was dominated by Arsenal.

Serge Aurier is a very good player for me, and also he can do a lot in the main plan of play of the Galatasaray, he is really fasta nd strong, and with Galatasaray dominating the 90% of the games they play he can make a very good runs in the right band without so much effort and made good crosses to Icardi for example, and in defense he can return really fast thanks to his speed.

Serge Aurier is a very good transfer. But I think the best signing for Icardi will be Carlos Vinicius. He's a physical and combative striker. Icardi can perform better with him. We had Bakambu before. Bakambu was not a strong striker in duels. He was more of a striker with high technical qualities. But these qualities were not compatible with Icardi. Now with Carlos Vinicius I'm sure Icardi's performance will improve even more. Galatasaray have made very good transfers. I think we are the team most ready for the second half of the season.

Moreover, according to Fabrizio Romano, we have loaned him for a total of 600.000 euros and we will only pay him 600.000 euros for 6 months. In the same transfer window we sold Bakambu to Real Betis for 5 million euros. Thus, we both saved money and enriched our attacking organizations with the right moves. Erdem Timur and his friends are doing great things for Galatasaray. If we become champions this year, they will have a big share in this success.

When I saw a survey indicating that the majority of voters chose the player that only a handful of experts expect to win over the player that has proven to be more dominant, it blew my mind.

I am talking about the boxing match between former champion and big star Anthony Joshua and mma star Francis Nganou. However, I remember not long ago I refused to place a wager on Real Madrid because I desired Girona to win La Liga. In addition, wagering against the Los Angeles Lakers when matched with the best NBA teams is difficult for me.

I want to find out if there are individuals like me. What percentage of the gamblers in Bitcointalk are wagering and not wagering to their dearest star player, club and team?

Sometimes my favorite team is going through a bad period and I feel that they might lose points, but I never bet against them. I don't bet against individual athletes that I like and admire a lot. I guess I am a bit emotional about it. However, there are always many matches to bet on. I don't have only one option. If I rejected one option I might have a regret, but I don't have one option. I have a lot of alternatives and betting on other matches makes me feel more comfortable.

Galatasaray had already started the match well in the very early minutes with the goal he scored from a corner kick against Samsunspor, with Nelsson's goal. Then, in the progressive attack, five minutes later, Barış Alper Yılmaz scored Galatasaray's second goal. Two goals scored in the 10th minute meant that everything was fine for Galatasaray.

Okan Buruk intended to finish the match 2-0 without taking too much risk, and that's what happened. After the two goals, Sivasspor was already disbanded and they dropped out of the match as the goals were scored early.

I thought we were going to win with plenty of goals after taking the lead right at the beginning of the match, but Okan Buruk preferred a controlled game tactic. I really liked the performance of Kerem Demirbay, Davinson Sanchez and Kerem Aktürkoğlu in this match. If the other players had played as well as them, we could have had a more comfortable win tonight. With this win, we won the league leadership. Fenerbahçe will play away to Antalyaspor tomorrow. If they lose points in that game, we will finish the week as the leader.

I hope Liverpool can still provide the best results in the match away to the Emirates Stadium and Arsenal will also benefit greatly from the injuries faced by Liverpool's key players. Arsenal will really take advantage of this advantage both from the squad to playing in front of their fans and if Liverpool can still win even with a narrow score, this will be an extraordinary match.

I like Arsenal's game this season as well, they are not so different from last season. But they are not getting consistent results like last season. Liverpool are also very good this season. They got good results both when Salah played and when Salah went to the African Cup of Nations. The tempo won't drop in this match. I expect a good 90 minutes and I think there will be more than 2,5 goals in this match. It's a bit difficult for me to bet on the winning side as it's hard to know which one will win.

Well the winter window is over and I don't think they're Interested in any deal

It's over for most of the leagues but there are still open market for other leagues. Turkish League transfer window will close in February 9. I expect more players to come here in Türkiye. It's an opportunity window for leagues like we have, sometimes teams can find high quality players because other major leagues close their window early.
We can see some players who wouldn't normally come here, playing here on loan or with an option to buy. I think some big players will come in this period as well. Especially Beşiktaş, which has been quiet in transfers, is waiting for this period. They will make quality reinforcements in order to recover the team and, if possible, win the Turkish Cup.

This is also a time when prices are slightly cheaper than in normal times. Players who are not considered in the squad of the big European teams are cheaper during this period. Undoubtedly, these days are a great advantage for Turkiye and similar leagues. Galatasaray sold Boey to Bayern Munich for 30 million euros. Angelino's contract has been terminated. I expect two transfers from Galatasaray these days.

Juventus just won 2-1.

A new star has been born, Ylidz has all the potential to be a top players in 2 years.

Kenan's last name is Yildiz. Yildiz means Star in English. We can call him Kenan Star. Cheesy

He scored a great goal in Turkey's friendly match against Germany. He is a really talented footballer. Juventus made a very important investment for the future by signing him. He is only 18 years old.

Considering Besiktas started the season with a manager, then fired that manager and got a new interim manager, then got a new manager, now fired that manager and got an interim again, and probably will find another manager, we could say that they will have 5 managers (2 interim) for the whole season. I do not know what and why causes that, but it's obvious that they did not pick a right manager to see the season off. I do not know who this new manager they fired was, but doesn't look like it was a smart move to hire him if they were firing him anyway.

Five managers in a single season is not normal, usually you hire one, and if they are bad, you fire that one, an interim stays for a short while, and then you get one that will stay until the end of the season before you fire that one, you do not fire 2 managers in span of one half of the season. If the new one does badly, will they fire that one as well? That would not make any sense at all, just stay bad until the end of the season and then fire him and get a good one.

You have raised a very valid point. All teams are very impatient with their managers. However, the teams that are stable with their coaches usually succeed. One of them is Galatasaray. Galatasaray has continued with the same manager for the last two seasons. They had a good season in the Champions League under Okan Buruk and they have a very good chance to win the Turkish league this season.
71  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: December 22, 2023, 09:42:08 PM
I think Xabi Alonso should give Bayer Leverkusen a title this season because after all, Bayer Leverkusen cannot guarantee to keep Xabi Alonso next season. Therefore, then of course this season is a very appropriate season for Bayer Leverkusen to target trophies, whether trophies in the Bundesliga, DFB Pokal or in the Europa League.

Because yes, at least at this moment Bayer Leverkusen still has a good chance in these three tournaments. With a very good performance like now then yes, it should be Xabi Alonso managed to provide a new and great history for Bayer Leverkusen.

There is a strong Bayern Munich dominance in Germany. But today, Xabi Alonso is undoubtedly having a great season with Bayer Leverkusen. And it seems that this great performance will continue until the end of the season. I think Bayer Leverkusen can be champions, but the truth is that if they want to be champions this season, it would be better for them to focus only on the league. Competing in three competitions could cause them to miss the league.

The end of the month every year is what everybody is waiting for throughout the year, because this is the time you get your Christmas bonus and other bonuses like 13th month pay from other countries, because of the huge money coming in this holiday.

Are you spending more or less on casinos this holiday season?

Why add more? this is the only time of the year that you have additional funds why not enjoy playing more time with more funds if you get lucky you're holiday season will be merrier and prosperous.

Why spend less? This is the time of the year that there's a lot of spending and you have to buy a lot of gifts for your loved ones so I don't want to spend more on gambling I don't want to face this holiday losing money.

Tell us your opinion.


 

I gamble less during the holidays because I have other things to take care of. I should also say that I drink less alcohol during the holidays. I find it hard to focus on other things when I'm exploring new places and meeting new people. Fortunately, vacations are one week or two weeks a year. I just give them a break for a week or two weeks. Cheesy

Beşiktaş lost to Alanyaspor at home today. They already have a bad performance this season. They have already had a lot of bad results so far. But after coach Riza Calimbay took charge, they started to get worse results. I think they should sign a better coach for the second half of the season.
74  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Turkish Super League 2023/24 Season on: December 20, 2023, 10:03:30 PM
Galatasaray didn't play very well tonight but they managed to win the match. I think Kerem Aktürkoğlu was the man of the match. He has been performing well in recent weeks. He is carrying Galatasaray with his goals. I hope he will repeat the same good performance in the derby against Fenerbahçe. Icardi has not been productive in recent weeks. Kerem Aktürkoğlu shines more for this reason.

Just trying to get the communities opinion based on their experience about the topic.

Personally, a a bettor, I find it very stressful when watching the game you are betting especially if it will end up a losing bet.

If we have the same experience, how do you cope up with that problem, after all, gambling should be fun but why we have this kind of feeling that we feel disappointed when our bet loses?

You are indeed right. When I bet on a game, it becomes a more entertaining game for me, but when I lose the bet, the same game becomes a nightmare for me. When we win, it's more fun, but when we lose, it's just as disappointing. I think betting creates a kind of leverage. It increases the amount of fun and disappointment.

Teams ranked 1st to 5th in the Premier League standings will continue to compete until the end of the season to beat each other. Up to the 17th match, in my opinion there was no team that dominated even though we were forced to drop to second place in the standings after the match against Manchester United.
Liverpool is still very likely to take over from Arsenal in the next match at Anfield.

Competition to win the premier league title will continue to be fierce, starting from Arsenal to Tottenham in 5th place.
These five teams are very fertile in scoring goals, even regarding the number of goals scored, Newcastle is also very fertile even though they are currently ranked sixth behind Spurs.

The Premier League title race is very exciting this season. I think one of the main reasons for that is that Manchester City have dropped more points than expected. They've been champions in five of the last six seasons. They were also the last Champions League winners. I think there is nothing left to motivate them this season because they have achieved everything.
77  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who should quit, and why? on: December 19, 2023, 08:10:05 PM
If they are both able to earn their own money, I think they can both continue to gamble. They can also share household expenses. I think there is a possibility that both of them might get out of control, but it is not a sure thing, and both of them can manage to act responsibly. I don't think it's right to have prejudiced thoughts against this imaginary couple. Cheesy
78  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: December 19, 2023, 07:46:26 PM
I think Manchester United lost that champion mentality where they would want to win everything and I blame Ten Hag for that. He already had 1 and a half seasons with this squad and he couldn't do much with it. As @Ahli38 said, the team morale is very down. Nobody seems happy in that squad. Manchester United has nothing going for them currently. They are out of the Champions League, and currently at the 7th position in the premier league.

I think the cure for the United Squad is to sack Ten Hag and have a new manager who can start rebuilding the squad starting from now. If he starts at the next season, half the season will be gone just rebuilding the squad. Currently this season the team has nothing to lose. A new manager would come and rebuild the squad without any pressure. And Slowly they can regain their champion mentality.

I have the same ideas as you, but I don't know who can bring this team back to the old days. After Alex Fergsun, many managers came, but none of them succeeded. Do you have anyone in mind? Which manager do you think can take Manchester United back to the old days? Whoever comes to this team will be under a lot of pressure. I think it's not easy to be the manager of Manchester United.

Osimhen is a quality striker, there is no doubt about that. I don't think he is the primary option for Real Madrid. Haaland would be a great option for Real, but my preference would be Mbappe. He has a structure that can play both as a forward and as a wing. Haaland plays as a complete finishing striker. While Mbappe makes it easier to intervene in the game, you cannot remove Haaland from his position.

Haaland looks like a static striker. He's the target striker. Mbappe looks like a more mobile striker. In fact, he can play as a number 10 or a number 7. It's possible to use him in a broader tactical perspective. Of course, Haaland can also play in different areas, but then I think his efficiency decreases.

I can't say it's pure luck because if you bet on sporting events and you see that the odds of the non-favorite team winning are very small. If gambling was all about luck, the odds of a bet on the underdog winning would be close to 50%. However, we know that this is a very small percentage. But I agree that Casiona games are all about luck.
