Ronaldo's situation and Messi's situation are a little different in my opinion. If Barcelona were the club that Messi will return to, 1-2 years ago, we would have said that it was a not very good team. But right now Barcelona is one of the best teams in the world, if Messi thinks he can play for a few more years, I think he can play in Barcelona. I think there is no obstacle in front of them not to be a team like the legendary Barcelona team 10 years ago. I would like to see him again in Barça Smiley
I agreed with you about this all but now situation is changing in Barcelona with Xavi is having few quality players and their unit is also giving them positive results which were needed few months back so while all things going good, and they have no issue then why they bring Messi even he is world cup winner and good player, but now they are living without him, and they are doing amazing.

Messi is also having good chemistry at PSG, and they are also doing good for their first title of Champions League in this all situation I have feeling right now no party is looking for this transfer just few persons in media are creating mess up for their sack which is good for having soccer fans intention but in reality nothing is going to happen.

The changing of the chairman of PCB, I think this should not effect on team performance.
By the way you are right on some points. The only one person can't do everything. If every player will play his role than the team will give a good performance at all. The management has some weak points which should be fxed as soon as possible.
Is this confirmed? I heard rumors that Rameez Raja may be replaced with Najam Sethi as the chairman of the PCB. It will have no immediate impact on the performance of the Pakistan team, but in the long term I don't think that it will be beneficial for the growth of grassroots cricket in Pakistan. Sethi is like old wine in new bottle. He will once again bring nepotism and bias to Pakistani cricket. Rameez on the other hand was the one who rescued the finances of PCB, by coming up with deals with various media corporations.
This is confirmed because current authorities are not happy with his aggressive approach against India specially while he talks about not sending team to India for the world cup and now another thing gone against him with his new comments about Peshawar which create mess up and many other peoples also feeling not happy about his these comments and third reason Pakistan have first whitewash in their test cricket history which is also going against his poor policies even he was not engaged in pitches but mostly feeling things are not going good specially change of government is also having big impact.
 
Here I agreed with you this change could be not positive with this change because he is not the best administrator, just puppet for the many peoples those are involved in PCB and was feeling not good in presence of Ramiz Raja's presidency.

Just because there's a halving every 4 years doesn't mean the 4 year cycle would go on forever.  If that were the case then all other coins that would have a halving every 4 years would also have a 4 year cycle that would go on forever?  It's much more than that. 

And what if BTC doesn't follow the same pattern after the next halving?  What then?  I'm not saying BTC won't trend up again but you guys are saying it under the wrong premise...  I've been saying 'whatever you do, don't look at the rainbow chart' but look how it is rn.

https://www.blockchaincenter.net/en/bitcoin-rainbow-chart-v1/
Isn't it the same? 4 year halving and 4 year cycle? But no they won't go on forever but there will be a time where all the supply of btc have been mined out. A case that is happening in btc right now, won't possibly happen on any other coins because each of them are not the same. some Other coins can halved too but it wasn't exactly 4 years. It can be farther or shorter than that.

Those coins which supply is high, their halving period can also go a long way but it can't be forever because I believe all crytos can soon end. Nothing stays forever in this world. There may be times where btc move randomly and won't follow a pattern so it's always better to be versatile and have a plan-B.

You are very consistent with your playing style. Some people can't wait for the free spins. because they think, they will be able to get wins faster with bonus buy feature which is actually not giving higher chance to win. I also realized, because on several occasions, I only get $0.xx from bonus buy feature  Grin. Whereas from normal spins I can get up to 200x. After having this experience, I also played more with normal spins than bonus buys. This mean, nothing different between bonus buy or normal spins.
yes I am, imagine that in the past I become addicted without Buying bonuses so what more if I tried those? lucky that I never tried mate and now I completely deny that Idea as I would rather gamble and loss with pure luck than doubling my chance of losing buying those bonuses.
but good that you explain that further for others to understand because only few of us knows about how this bonuses works because this added cost to our gambling activities.
Since what year did you start playing slots? Because I think bonus buys are only invented a few years ago but the earlier versions of slot games doesn't have that feature yet. In offline casinos, the slots there don't also have a bonus buy feature, so people are forced to play the normal way.

This tested their patience a lot. If you tried buying bonus and let say no good wins came, I think you won't ever avail them next time because you think they are only a waste of money but for some guys who started when these things are already implemented, they can only treat that as a normal event and this doesn't discourage them from buying a bonus in the future.
685  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: December 21, 2022, 12:58:02 AM
I think Manchester City is the best club in the world so far. They have very smart players in their team who are performing well. The FIFA World Cup has already ended and now the players of all the teams will return to training. Hopefully the match will start in a few days and Manchester City will maintain their previous performance.
After win of Premier League and having few quality players never give you tag of world's best club because for this surely you need to do have big trophies like Champions League as well, but sadly Manchester City is not able to have this trophy which is surely setback for them but now in this season we are having improvement in their performance for the win of Champions League even right now things are looking not clear but still expectations are high, and their team is at his best even right now they are struggling in Premier League with few points behind Arsenal but now as we are heading for the games after break we will watch how they change formation of this league table with their performance but things looking very good from Arsenal and Newcastle United as well.
686  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are we ever going to see this on gambling platforms some day. on: December 20, 2022, 06:56:06 PM
Despite gambling platforms badly needs something fresh, I doubt that we will ever see such random game, event betting that OP is talking about. First, because the scenario "buy casino script, add maximum amount of slots and table games, try to survive with minimum budget" perfectly works. Just look on the amount of new, but not giving anything new, casinos are opened regularly. Second, how the casinos are going to check and control the fairness of a challenge in Mortal Kombat if OP wants to challenge someone? Gambling platforms need experts of every possible game? Just imagine if they get such person or an army of persons, how much they will charge for escrowing bets of those that compete.
If it's not broken why fix it, why would they add it when there's no demand for this kind of game, and the games that are provided by casino game providers are all doing great and supported by casino players, if we are going to have something like that, it should be dedicated and not coming from game providers, and the admin of that game should market it extensively because this is something new and the game has to make a mark first before they get accepted and create supporters of those games, but in the end why not, casinos games should be a work in progress and they should make games that will excite gamblers.
Fix is not the right word but 'improve' is. A casino can run in good condition but improving it is necessary so that gamblers won't get bored. There is a demand for this, take example the OP. There are others but they are not a member of this forum.

There's also gamblers who want to see something new but they don't have the time to suggest it in the casino they are playing with. They are only contented on what the casino currently has to offer because those games can still provide them happiness and profit once they get lucky. Having the game the OP wants may not be easy and maybe costly but it's worth it. Any casino that will have it is going to be trendy. That is for sure

It is impossible to say which teams will make it to the final. It is true that one of the title candidates will now fall away due to the draw of Barcelona against Manchester United. That would easily have been the final of the CL 10 years ago. Both teams will be ready for a European prize again. United won this title a few years ago, of course. Barcelona has really not won anything in a European context for a long time. Still, they are playing better than last year. Arsenal also have a lot of potential and have also drawn significantly better than the compatriots.
Surely talking about finalist for this season is not easy but right now few teams are doing amazing stuff which is clearly indicating their intention is winning title in this season like we have Arsenal and Manchester United both are doing good job with Arsenal is having better performance and quality instead of Manchester United which is having many issues, but now due to few teams are dropped from Champions League situation is change but still things are not clear like Sevilla which is suffering badly in La Liga having good record here in Europa Cup and Porto and Ajax are also can fight for the title instead of Barcelona and Juventus which are having intention into domestic league instead of this cup.
688  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: December 19, 2022, 08:24:03 PM
It is their financial ability that makes Paris Saint Germain very strong in Ligue 1. They don't think much when it comes to signing star players they don't even hesitate to spend a lot of money to get those players. Regarding Mbappe, yes, maybe he was a little over the top when he gave him very special treatment, that also made it a little difficult for him to control himself because he realized he was special. But it must be admitted that what he showed with his national team was extraordinary.
I also think that Paris Saint Germain's dominance will be very difficult to stop, unless there is a club that has the ability like Paris Saint Germain, especially in finance.
If we have same management in future no one going to challenge PSG because they are spending money without any hesitation, and they have enough funds which can give them good advantage so things looking good with Mbappé is also again at his best with his performance in world cup and Messi is also going to stay here for some more time which will give them good power and chance to win Champions League.
 
Now they are going to face Bayern Munich which is also strong but sadly due to injuries now having issues which will prevent them from having spot into last eight of Champions League in next round, even still it's never been easy for PSG because we have Manchester City and few more tough teams in competition.

~snip~

Before the break Tottenham has been playing better the Newcastle,   can't predict if Tottenham can still be consistent.
I don't agree with you on that.

Tottenham's performance was a little below Newcastle in general. Newcastle even defeated Tottenham in an away match as you must be remembering. Truthfully it was a really unexpected result for me but here we are. Newcastle just continue to surprise people by their amazing effort in this season. They have completed this part of the season ahead of Tottenham at the third position in the standings. There is only one point between these two teams of course. We will see which one will be able to stay ahead of the other at the end. I'm still favouring Tottenham for that as they have a much more promising squad. They have a great tactician like Conte as well.
Newcastle United is having tag of surprise package of this season because their performance is surely above the expectations, and they can do better after this break as we have news they are improving their strength and bring quality players which could be brought better results most chances they could be able to stay into top six spots because right now many other big teams are struggling and have no enough quality for compete with them.

Tottenham were also good but in last five matches they lost three and won only two against weaker sides which is surely not good as if they want to stay at top then surely they have to perform good against big teams as well, hopefully things will be changed, and we will have healthy competition after on 26th December.

As for the attractiveness of German clubs for players, there is an interesting situation here - Bayern is 100% guaranteed to participate in the Champions League and Dortmund is probably 90% guaranteed. All other clubs are less reliable options, but when compared with the Premier League, now the situation there is almost the same - there is a clear favorite (City) and the rest of the clubs are much less reliable options due to increased competition.
In Bundesliga, we have just two teams dominance for long time so just because of this mostly teams are not reliable for having positive results, and we have different teams at the 3rd and 4th spots but now in this season we have big change with Dortmund is also struggling even now after this break we can expect better performance from them, but now competition is tough with Frankfurt and Freiburg both are doing good job and have fair chance for staying at the top behind Bayern Munich with Leipzig and Dortmund will surely fight for the remaining spot with Leverkusen which was in relegation zone now have change of coach which brining positive change, and they also can go at the top ranks even this is not easy, but things can take change.

i would like to play blackjack and roulette at multiple casino sites. Blackjack i feel is awesome game as we need to keep calculating based on dealer cards !

Honestly i have never came out with profit at the end where ever i went as i honestly dont know when to stop Sad
So you don't have a specific site in which you hang out the most? But I think I know the reason why. It's because you find it boring right? Each casino site doesn't exist for no reason but the reason why they exist is because they have something unique to offer. Both bj and roulette are awesome games because their edge are only small compared to the rest of the casino games.

When I want to enjoy longer I will bet on roulette because this one needs to spin the wheel first before you know the result while bj is more on a fast paced game. If you do not know when to stop, then why not set a timer? Just don't set it at longer hours as it doesn't make sense anymore.

Bangladesh women's team played really very bad and it has many drawbacks. And this team should eliminate their bad points to stand.
I really appreciate the New Zealand team it performed very well. In T20 series they played well and in ODI series they also played really well.
Recently some women's cricket teams did not improve much, but some others women cricket teams improve tremendously. One of them is New Zealand Women's Cricket Team. But on the contrary some are far behind to reached at good level. I think Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Pakistan women's cricket teams should be given good facilities. If they get good guidance they can do well. In the meantime, Pakistan has changed its approach to its women's cricket team. The most important thing is to improve the quality of women's cricket especially in Bangladesh.
Development of women's sports in subcontinent countries are never been easy specially with the grass root system is not working, and many countries are still living in Stone Age because they never want to give any positive development or any space for these things but still recently we have good progress in Bangladesh and Pakistan because these teams are having good performance even consistency is not, but these are trying their best for the better results after India which is already having good quality and their performance level is also improving in last few years. Sri Lanka is modest country but their infrastructure and financial situation is not good for better results, but we can hope things could be good and positive for women's games in near future.

the performances of Freiburg and Frankfurt are much better than Dortmund and I predict that Dortmund will not be able to finish in the top 5 until the end of the season. dortmund is ranked 6th in the bundesliga standings with 25 points, so far dortmund has lost 6 times, and that keeps their ranking from being in the top 5, other news that is not pleasant to hear is that Youssoufa Moukoko intends to leave dortmund, this will definitely add to internal problems for dortmund because bellingham is also reportedly being targeted by another team.
We have some shocking start of this season for few teams like Borussia Dortmund, Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen but good thing happen with Bayern Munich after some struggle now they are back at the top but sadly other teams are still struggling badly and have no better results before this break hopefully now after break they could be improved performance and touch better levels in League table but right now Freiburg, Leipzig and Frankfurt are doing amazing job and have good fight for the Champions League spot even this all is too early but still these teams can do good for this season, and we can watch good entertaining end of this season specially Union Berlin which have good time at the top now struggling and wants to fight back for the good spot which is now not easy.
694  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: December 18, 2022, 07:10:34 PM
Since the arrival of Antonio Conte on November 18th, Tottenham Hotspur has displayed a shocking performance this season. I think they could end up in the top four at the end of this season. But It could be difficult for the club to keep the fire burning if their key man (harry Kane) doesn't have a well-to-do backup before the remaining half of the season begins, seeing that he features in all their matches. It will be a good thing if they could confirm the signing of Zaha on a free transfer or Mac Allister, as reported by the media.
Even Antonio Conte is doing good job at Tottenham but still there is nothing for winning trophies which is the biggest concern for them and their future they need to huge investments for quality players and winning trophies, but management can't do things like this just because of their future is not good with most chances Antonio Conte will be not going to renew his contract and most chances Harry Kane will be also left this club soon which is creating uncertainty in club but good thing happening they are bringing few players on free basis which will help them in future for staying at same level of performance.

With there are rumours that Son is also looking for new club which is making things more complicated for the club but if management able to have good developments than we can expect good results but still this needs good funds which are not available.
695  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: December 18, 2022, 06:13:22 AM
I think no one is watching the test match between Australia and South Africa, Australian bowlers have completely dominated the match. South Africa lost 7 wickets and scored only 64 runs.

Starc, Scott Boland, and  Pat Cummins took 2 weeks each while  Lyon took one wicket in the 2nd innings in the test being played at Brisbane.
I think South Africa needs to improve their game a lot if they want to win any match on the Australian home ground.
I was expecting some resistance from South Africa but they played like an associate team in Gabba. Now, Australia just need only 34 runs to win this first test match which could be done without losing a wicket, I guess. The next test match is on boxing day which must be more exciting but if South Africa continues similar kind of performance then we will have another two day encounter only.

That Drake stream is a mess.
But, I think Drake betting was quite awesome to watch, dude started out a bit under 15 million (which is insane to say, having 15 million to play with) and peaked over 24 million, and then he finished with 17. That is 2 million dollars total win, which I am sure he could lose very quickly as well because dude wagered like 900k bets and that was super fun.

The only problem I had was I got ready to watch as soon as it said "stream starting soon" and that took like nearly half an hour, wish they just start with some time , like say at 18:00 we will start and then start within like 2 minutes, do not make us wait, aside from that everything was great.
697  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: December 17, 2022, 09:10:01 PM
Newcastle have so much money to spend now. Their transfer budget must be around 1 billion euros but it might be a little less after the latest transfers. Still it doesn't matter of course. They are one of the richest teams in the world technically but they need to be more patient before starting to make block-busting transfers. Above all else, they will need to have a successful season in the Premier League. So far so good of course. They have been amazing unlike the predictions considering their having an average level of squad.

If they finish the season in top 4 they would definitely benefit from joining the Champions League. Some top players would lean towards signing for them in that case.

By the way, I've heard that they have made an official offer Ronaldo but we'd learn the details in the coming days.
Right now, we have not official statement about their future but in early days of this takeover they announce they will do this all processes slowly because they have long run project for this club, and they will try their best for having this club at the top of European clubs like we already have Manchester City and PSG, but their success into this season is surely better than expectations which is surely good signs for the management and now if they are looking for having some short term things it has never been bad because they can achieve good results if they are going to have Ronaldo into their team for short term even it has never been easy.

And we have to wait for the official statement about this from both sides because Ronaldo is currently free agent and few clubs are already looking for him to be joined them which are considerable for him as well.
698  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What's your opinion on the future of Decentralised exchanges on: December 17, 2022, 08:45:41 PM
In cryptocurrency we all know that "Not your Keys, Not your Coins" and that's why I think in near future decentralized exchanges will be the most popular and safest way to buy or sell cryptocurrencies. Already they are getting huge popularity and intention from a huge number of users.

This is true, but have you heard of any decentralized exchange being the same or more popular let's say like Binance? There is none because crypto traders still prefer centralized exchange. And even if we have seen like the collapse of FTX, once everything has settled down, they will still go back to where they used to, that is to trade on centralized exchange. I have nothing against decentralized exchange, but I don't see them having the same love as compare to centralized exchange. Once reason is that it's hard to trade on decentralized exchange as it is too slow and then the question of liquidity as well.
Lack of liquidity means something totally different from what FTX was also having as their main problem. This is why it's clear that we shouldn't really consider doing any business with them, they ended up not with just liquidity problem, but faking the liquidity and the numbers in users accounts as well.

You may have seen some money in your account, but in reality, it wasn't there so all the liquidity was fake basically, money that didn't exist and yet they made it look like it was there. All in all, they are liars, and maybe they didn't want to end this way, but it did and all of it was because of them and there is no turning point for them out of this mess, it’s over.

I have got what I wanted from the consolation game today. I was expecting Croatia to be the winner against Morocco after a competitive game. Morocco didn't have as many goal attempts as their opponent maybe but they still managed to keep the score at the level they would like. They were really quick about an answer to Gvardiol's goal.

However Orsic's marvelous goal to the right corner sealed the deal for Croatia. I think both of these teams deserve appreciations because of their big efforts so far. Especially Morocco have become the first team reaching the semi finals in Africa continent for the first time.
After losing against France moral was down, and they were surely not settled as they started this event and Croatia take good advantage of this all and win this match for the third spot which is good achievement for them because they deserve this win after having very good performance in this world cup even Morocco was also at the top of his game but still they need more experience for having better results in big games their this event was still one of the best for them because after many years we have team like this from Africa which done amazing stuff and beat few top rank teams in world hopefully they will keep this momentum, and we will be able to have them into next event as well with this same level performance.

In Australia Women vs India Women, 4th T20 match on going, Australia women's team threw a big target of 188 runs. Where India women lost 3 wickets and collected 49 runs. At this point 140 runs are needed from 78 balls to win. Their required run rate is 10.78 which will not very  easy for India. On side the pressure of the wicket and on the other the pressure of the runs are both difficult obstacles for Indian them. But in the T20 format, if a wicket is set on the pitch, then the equation of the game changes with in short of time.
India women's team still need 70 runs in six overs . So they need to score around 12 runs per over to win the match . Like India men, Indian women are very good at cricket, so if they play a little harder, they might be able to surpass the target given by Australia women. But it is a challenging thing for India but the Indian game looks like they have not potential to win this match
48 runs in 20 last balls from Ellyse Perry and Grace Harris was enough for Australia to win this fourth T20i and this series because after this big target of 188 runs their bowlers also done good job with keep checking Indian batting lineup which helps them specially Gardner's 2/20 in four overs were helpful even Indians also done good job and lost this match by just 7 runs which is also good fight as they try to chase this with 61 runs from 5.3 overs mean they were really close but still missing and needs more aggressive approach from them for beating world champions and most successful cricketing team in women's cricket.

Richa Ghosh and Harmanpreet Kaur both give their best as both are doing good for India in last few matches, but still this is not enough for winning against team like Australia.
