741  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you blame someone for your gambling losses? on: March 06, 2024, 12:31:04 PM
Yep., you would really be finding yourself getting blamed on the time that you would really be giving out those kind of suggestions on which this is something that would really be that so common behavior for
those who do gamble. On the time that your suggestion turns out to be a lost then for sure he/she would really be blaming just because you've told him on what to bet.
This is why if you dont like on getting blamed so better just watch out and zip your mouth.  Grin Even if he's your friend, you wont really be that exempted with those kind of blaming.
Even into yourself on which on the time that there's someone who do make out some suggestion and it had lost then for sure you would really be doing the same.

This is why it would be always best that you would really be playing according into your own choice and wont really be tending to give out advises or hearing out
someones advise. If you have lost then you do just simply move on and then call it a day without questions asked.
Exactly. It is advisable to keep your gambling activities and strategies to yourself to avoid any conflicts with anyone and not to suggest them to someone else, particularly with a friend who should be someone you can trust. If such a situation happens to me, it can weigh on my conscience, and I might end up feeling responsible for any negative consequences that may arise.
I agree with that, gambling that is done is certainly better kept secret. because most people have a bad view of gambling, so even if we don't keep it a secret, there will likely be disagreements or conflicts. Even though the winnings might be shown off or shown to everyone, I'm sure not everyone will like it, there are definitely people who don't like things like that, because they have a bad view of gambling. Now if you think about it, gambling is not wrong, the number of people who experience problems in life because of gambling is because their own actions went too far.
Even if we show our friends our winnings, maybe our friends have lost by gambling and we show off the winnings they have obtained, maybe it can trigger their emotions. Keeping everything well is good for ourselves, therefore it is better to keep the gambling we do a secret, rather than conflict as you say is true. Also, if we lose at gambling, we shouldn't blame other people or take out our frustrations on other people.

If an addict is already troubling their family, it means they are at such a bad level that they involve others (even if it's their own family) in their problems. The response from the family will indeed vary, they might become super protective and some might even just let it go because maybe they already know and the person cannot be advised anymore. Usually an addict will not regret their actions as long as they have not realized their mistakes, they will even tend to make justifications, at all costs. The role of the family is very important in this case, the family is the closest person, unless those who have addiction are closed. But the family should have been able to realize his habits from the beginning, because there are usually changes in behavior and so on.
I often imagine, what if an addict comes from a simple family? Maybe for someone who has a rich family it can still help him (although there is nothing right in this), but when it happens to a simple family then the pressure will be even greater. It's a huge blow to have to solve a problem that shouldn't have happened in the first place.
First, addiction is a terrifying monster that doesn't care about your family's finances. The idea that money can'solve' addiction is false. Addiction is about the individual, not the purse. Wealth can cushion certain blows. The family role? Unquestionably essential. They provide first defense and support. Instead of being a watchdog, be a light of hope and help before the storm becomes a hurricane. Every family, rich or poor, may see behavior changes early

Blaming the addict is pointless. Understanding, suporting, and getting expert help are key. A collective effort. Remember, the goal is to empower the person to overcome addiction, not hide it
It's true, gambling is a scary thing. If it happens, life can be destroyed, especially financially. Even though we have a lot of money, it doesn't mean we can gamble as we please. Basically, gambling can affect our thinking which can make us stressed if we not smart in doing it, with defeat that is bound to happen, it absolutely must be digested well, so that big losses don't occur. indeed the role of the family is an important thing, in this case of course the family needs to accompany those who are in the process of recovering from their addiction, if the family really cares then I think they will not hesitate to help, no matter how bad we are in the eyes of other people, but we can still be accepted in the eyes of the family.
get expert help? Is it like a psychiatrist or psychologist?
because I think with those who are addicted to gambling they have problems with their thinking and they may need expert help such as a psychiatrist or psychologist, only this may cost a lot. But of course, if it's for healing and goodness, there's no harm in spending a lot of money, if you can afford it and have it.
743  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: March 06, 2024, 07:58:20 AM
You're right nice was one of my favorite team from the beginning of this season due to there performance it was overwhelming,but as time goes on I begin to experience some changes from the players that is when I started losing interest.talking about brest,brest was not doing well from the beginning of this season but they turns out to be in a very good form this time,with what I'm seen I think brest will be among the teams that will be in champions league next season,that's if they will maintain this form.
A team like Nice will find it difficult to compete consistently in Ligue 1 from the start of the season to the end of the season because they often only play defensively and will try to maintain their lead if they are already leading 1-0 even though that is not a safe score at all and you can see the average on their match results were filled with low scores, making Nice the team in the top five with the fewest goals and also the fewest goals conceded, so slowly but surely they started to lose a lot of points and made their ranking drop.

I am also one of the people who hopes that Nice can compete after seeing at the start of the season that they were so tough and solid. However, I can't see this going forward because at the same time as the competition progresses they are also decreasing and even now they are in 5th position, down 4 places from the position they occupied at the start of the season.
Their biggest problem lies in their attack line which is not unproductive. I have to admit that their defense line is very solid, even now they are the team that has conceded the fewest goals, which proves that their defense is very good. However, in football everything must be balanced, they cannot have a solid defense but not be balanced by a sharp attack line, because the result will be the same. Because in football to win they have to create more goals than the opponent can score, and Nice can't do that. If only they had a very sharp attack line, I'm sure they would still be in first place, or at least they would be in second place. But now we see a quite striking decline that they are showing.
744  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Recovering gambling addict stories on: March 06, 2024, 07:38:09 AM
That is the worst impact of just losing money, that is we will lose the trust of others even from our own family, in other words, maybe that is the social impact that gambling addicts will get. This is indeed worse than just losing some money, because we may be able to find money again, although it will take a little longer to completely restore our financial situation. But if it has entered the social realm, then it will be more complicated than imagined. Previously we may have had a good relationship with the neighborhood, but if they already know our ruin because of gambling maybe slowly the good relationship will be a little tenuous. I think what makes it tenuous is that the addict becomes more ashamed of what he or she is going through.
This is what should be realized, but again when they have not felt the impact, then they will not be able to accept easily the advice that comes to them. But when everything has happened then it will make them fully realize that what they have been doing all this time is something wrong because gambling without any rules they do. The rules should always be adhered to, and not just in gambling, but in all aspects of life.
Social impact could really only happen on the time that you would really be tolerating your addiction into that extreme manner on which you are already affecting out your relationship with other people.
You would really be coming into a point that you would really be breaking their trust and this is something that should really be that avoided at all cost. Losing money in gambling is really that inevitable and this is something that you should really be wary and on the time that you are already spending up that much then this would be the solid indication or signal that you should really be stopping gambling if you dont like on messing up your life with. Once that gambling addiction would really be able to shackle you out then there's no way that you could really be able to get out so easily
not until that you would really be able to affect to those people around you.

This is why if you dont like on having that kind of life then it would be always best to stop mid-way which its not something simple but its not that impossible if you are really just that eager on doing so.
Just looking on how booming up gambling industry is, on which you could really be able to tell that there are lots of people who are really that getting addicted to it.
So on the time that you do make yourself getting some involvement then it would be always best that you should make use of your self awareness and common sense.
You are right, but the problem is that gamblers who already have an addiction will not be able to just realize the impact they will receive, they gamble because of the emotional impulses that control them, and we know that if emotions control a person, then that person will find it difficult to think rationally.
Actually they don't need to get advice or so, if they really use their common sense, it should be when they see someone who is destroyed because of gambling it can make them realize. But that is not the case, instead there are some people who justify their gambling activities that are beyond reasonable limits.
It is a simple choice, but in reality it is not that simple for some people. Indeed, one way to make them really realize is that they feel the impact directly, but that is too extreme for us to see. Therefore, those of us who have normal thoughts try to do our best for such people, because even though we are also active in gambling activities, we don't want to see someone lose everything because of this gambling.
745  Other / Off-topic / Re: Dont chase your loss on: March 06, 2024, 07:18:23 AM
It is best you gamble when necessary not because you want to chase your loss and win back you money, many are victim of this circumstances and for me is a bad practice and this might make you not to employe your gambling skills and roles because you inhast in your decision making. What is your opinion on this?

It would be better to plan and limit your gambling. That way you can gamble responsibly and have a safety net, in case you lapse into a gambling rush. Or you can not gamble at all.

But if you plan it, you will have to own a large amount of self discipline.

My own personal plan is once a week at most and only with tiny amounts, capped to a max. amount.
That's a good point you made, "when we plan it, we have to be disciplined to execute it". From what I've seen from some of my friends, they do plan the amount they lose when they play, for example they shouldn't spend more than $10 at a time, but in reality they can't be disciplined and will instead allocate another $10 to play and hope that the money they lost before can come back to them, and not stop at the second $10, they can even repeat it until the fifth $10 is spent.
Did they not have a plan at the beginning? No, they did. But can they be disciplined in sticking to the plan they have made at the beginning? Well that is a question that will go back to each of them personally. Because in this case they themselves determine the path, whether they will be able to be disciplined or they themselves who actually violate what is the rule in the game they are doing.
This is what we call irresponsible gambling. They constantly expect high returns and hope that luck will come to them on the second, third and so on. But instead of the luck they get, they become overwhelmed by emotions in gambling.

After the Manchester derby ETH was still having that confidence on the team of doing better, he said his side was this close in the game and I was wondering why we get to hear him say sure after making the derby look like a friendly match between one of the best vs an amateurs (which is Man UTD). ETH was this close to getting packed out of his office as far as I can remember, this coach has completely lost it all as a coach because I don't see anything to be confident about after being flogged 3-1, being beaten every season by your neighbor is just a shame to the name Manchester Derby and I don't think when Pep plays against Ole Gunnar Solskjaer it was easy for him, it wasn't and this coach (Ole Gunnar Solskjaer) was even doing better against the Citizens, out of eight meetings he won 4, lost 3 and 1draw all against Pep. I feel the man ETH should leave the job at Man UTD because he's not fit for the job.
I'm not saying he is a completely bad coach, because until now they are still ranked 6th which in my opinion is not too bad a ranking, especially if we compare it with other big teams like Chelsea who had to be thrown to 11th place in the standings. But I think one of the problems that Erik Ten Hag has is within himself, which is that he is too selfish to be able to do something he doesn't like. Until now he has worked according to his wishes, and if someone else disturbs his comfort he will not hesitate to hate him and even if he is a good player he will put him on the bench.
I know that a coach has to have principles and he has to stick to them, but sometimes they also have to look broadly at whether something they believe in is right or if there's something better than that. I myself believe that if he is willing to lower the level of ego that he has to be lower then he will find the right thing to help Manchester United rediscover something that has been missing from them for a long time.
747  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: March 06, 2024, 06:35:22 AM
Girona will face Osasuna in the coming week. looking at the position of the opponent, their opponent this time has a better appearance than the opponent who beat them before, this is a threat to Girona because it is possible that Osasuna can do the same thing to Girona as Mallorca did to them. Thus Girona's chances of losing are greater in my opinion.
Osasuna themselves are in a fairly positive trend in my opinion, they managed to win 3 matches out of 5 matches they played, only one defeat and one draw. With that result is a good capital for Osasuna before traveling to Girona headquarters next week. They must also have seen the last match played by Girona, and they will learn how Mallorca managed to overcome the resistance of Girona in that match. A strategy must have been prepared by the coach to ensure they are able to follow Mallorca's footsteps in defeating the team that is ranked second in the table at the moment. Nothing is impossible in a match, even if they are far apart in the standings.
On the other hand, Girona will have to work hard to ensure they don't suffer another defeat.
748  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which player are you? on: March 05, 2024, 03:00:29 PM
I like casino games, because I think that's where I can get and feel the sensation of pleasure, tension and also sadness hahaha. Grin

Lol, but it's true, all the emotions when we play on casinos, specially if we lost, gonna be combination of those. Sport betting though is more popular in my opinion, as those who bet thinks that they have better chance of winning as compare to luck based game.

I often play slots, because the first time I knew about gambling was slot gambling and as far as I know, currently the most popular gambling is probably slot gambling, because there are big multipliers that can be obtained (maybe). but if we are lucky we can get it and can feel various reactions, annoyed or happy.
Also, I once won quite a big win in slot gambling, so it made me addicted, I'm honest, I'm addicted to playing slots, when I first got to know slot gambling I always wanted to do it, but now I don't. because I think gambling is only a game that drains money, not one that can generate definite profits. Everyone has different tastes, so there are definitely those who don't like slot gambling but like others, that doesn't matter because that is their individual right.

Majority of us have started playing slots, that's also my go to game when I go to traditional base casinos and play with my friend. It's one of the most popular games and it feels different when you hit a bonus or you got a lot of scatter giving you a huge payday. Also, slots are addicted as well, hard to control when you play as if you are somewhat in a different mood when you press it and hope that you will win the jackpot.

hahaha that's obvious. If we cannot accept defeat then it is possible that something bad could happen, therefore we should understand gambling where defeat is certain and not make a big deal out of it. If you're not ready to lose then it's best not to gamble.
It's true that sports betting is better than gambling that is just based on luck, but the reality is that everyone has different tastes,  so that's fine. It's just that if you really want to make money, definitely don't gamble it's better to work.
It's true, in my opinion, slot gambling is one of the most popular games among the public, even with the existence of online slot gambling nowadays, more and more people are getting to know slot gambling not only among young people, everyone can do it. because the temptation of slot gambling is so strong that many people do it, even though they have lost they become addicted to doing it, because there is a chance of getting a big win if they are lucky.
749  Economy / Gambling / Re: tell me the best online casino on: March 05, 2024, 02:29:08 PM

you are right, by suggesting many casinos and calling them, it's just that everyone has different thoughts, by you suggesting a casino that you think is the best but may not necessarily be the best for other people, our preferences and tastes are different, even though the chances are high the games have the same taste but not the casino. If you just recommend it, everyone can, but to determine whether a casino is good or not, I think we have to register first and gamble at the casino, so that we can experience the service of the casino, whether the casino provides good service or not.
but I think all casinos will definitely provide the best service, including withdrawing and depositing money, because that is the main thing, also the response must be good. I think that can determine us to choose the best casino, because in my opinion there are casinos where when we ask a question or want to consult about a problem that occurs, their response is very slow, either because the casino is not good or because they are busy.
You are right with that, because as long as individuals are concerned, we will always have our preferences and our demands which may differ in several ways and choosing the best or most preferred casino it has alot to do with individual preference,  many times alot of those who rely on third-party advice may get disappointed if the experience is negative of what they expected.
But then we have a few casinos that have been able to sustain a suitable operational position that places them on top of the list of most preferred casinos, by just taking a look through the gambling announcement board and also here in the discussion board you will likely have a high chance of making the right casino to play on, because we have several discussions that will give the ops an insight of what is going on.

This can indeed happen, when we gamble at a casino recommended by someone else, where the casino can give the other person a win, but when we gamble at the casino he suggested and end up losing then we will be disappointed, even maybe another thing that can happen is that we can blame the person for the gambling that ended in losing, and maybe this can trigger an argument. explaining that the defeat was caused by someone else because the person who suggested the casino would definitely give a win but it was clear that the result would not be completely the same, the only thing that would be the same would be a loss.
The existence of this forum certainly helps us in choosing a casino, here there are many casinos that can be played for gambling, and of course the reputations are all dominantly good, but even so, it comes back to self-confidence, finding and determining a casino that is suitable for us must be done by us. yourself, take other people's advice as advice only, don't use it as a benchmark for belief, because winning at gambling is based on luck, not based on advice from other people.
750  Economy / Gambling / Re: What do you want to see in casino reviews? on: March 05, 2024, 01:56:57 PM
It's true that not everyone has the same goals. and clearly gambling is something that can make you happy and can also make you disappointed, if you compare the number of people who gamble with the motive of having fun, it's small, because in my opinion the goal of many people who gamble is to win, not for fun, just people who have wise thoughts who just gamble for fun, and I think people who gamble with the aim of having fun also have a sense of wanting to win, it seems impossible that they don't have a sense of wanting to win.
I agree with you, indeed looking at reviews is quite important, because in my opinion maybe it can help us in gambling so that there are no problems, or consider several things before gambling by reading reviews, and this is trivial so there are still many people who ignore it, no care too much about it. It's true that what you said could be fake reviews, because I also occasionally see positive reviews and I think it's just a hoax, what is clear is that we still have to be as vigilant as possible.

What I am looking to obtain in a casino is the truth, it is clarity in things, because the reviewers say things in a very general way and I don't like that because they don't give details, they won't show the only clarification they only say things to explain them, no They give details about the games, I don't know, I think it's like a guide that they always have to say the same thing, before I was guided a lot by that, but now I hardly even look at them because they all have the same thing to say, plus they don't say the criteria that they They took to give the opinions, they are general criteria, they do not go into depth

That's just what I've noticed in the casino reviewers, things are very focused on doing other things, on showing the general thing and that doesn't work for me, things like that don't work for me, I want to know more, knowing detail, knowing the most specific things about each game or each type of game, but they don't do that, it also requires a lot of work and money.

with them holding a casino, in my opinion it is clear that they provide paid games and there is a chance of winning if you are lucky, and we ourselves definitely know what a casino and gambling are, maybe they don't explain it in detail, but even so, I'm sure everyone People already know what casinos and gambling are. A common problem that often occurs is because they are not careful until problems occur with what they are doing.

If you really want to know the details and specifics of each game, perhaps you can ask questions to the staff, or you can directly visit the casino. If you really want to know, you have to move, not just talk. because if it's just talk, of course everything won't be proven, everything you want to know won't be resolved, my advice is to do things that you really want to know the truth specifically and in detail.
751  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: March 05, 2024, 12:28:24 PM
Liverpool isn't poor, but they're stingy.

There were many discussions that Liverpool lacks of play maker, people were want Musiala to join Liverpool. Actually they can, but why they sign Mac Allister and Szoboszlai? obviously they want to cut off the cost.

The money they have is better to allocate to sign a great manager.
How do we know the difference? I mean so far I have always thought about them being poor, and yes I get that the "poor" here doesn't mean like they have no money, they just paid so much money to players this off season so it is not like they have no money, but they are not like Madrid or PSG that they can spend whatever they want, or not like City neither. Looking at this summer, they paid as much as they can and I felt like that's all they have.
This is also a strong reason for Jurgen Klopp to leave because financial support from Liverpool does not fully provide options. So I agree if it is said that Liverpool financial management is stingy in terms of purchasing players, Klopp wanted more support during the transfer market but that didn't happen and not just once, so it ended up playing available players. If we still remember when Liverpool was in decline, not many changes were made, especially in terms of purchasing players. Only Liverpool is lucky to have a coach like Jurgen Klopp because if the coach was not Klopp and with his stingy financial condition, things might not have gone this far.

Hopefully Klopp departure can be a lesson for Liverpool officials to pay attention to the team's needs and support the new coach efforts to maintain stable performance. Reflecting on Man United monotonous financial support, this club has lost its direction and style of play. One more thing, don't compare it to Chelsea because this club is financially supportive but the player options chosen are messy.

It seems that Inter closed the Scudetto title too quickly this season and from 27 matches they have collected 72 points. That is a number of points that no team will be able to catch up with and at least they hope that Inter loses 5 times if they want to be able to overtake them at the top. But I think that is also impossible considering that Inter are unbeaten in 26 matches and they have only lost once this season.
This season in Serie A, Inter has succeeded in locking up the trophy so they can save a little energy to prepare their players for the UCL and continue to widen their lead after the first leg. Atletico Madrid can still catch up, so Inzaghi still has time left to prepare all the thorough plans to conquer the stadium. Metropolitan. The results in Serie A this season are very positive for Inter because last season was less profitable, only finishing in the top 3. This weekend they will play Bologna, maybe it won't be a problem if they field a second tier squad. However, it could still make a little difference, if Inter want to save a little energy to avoid unexpected risks before visiting Atletico Madrid's headquarters.
753  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Anyone +18 Play Gamble? on: March 05, 2024, 10:11:45 AM
Gambling or casino companies can only post such posts to warn you or they can make such rules but if you are under 18 years and tick 18 plus, the casino company will have nothing to do. Many movies or music videos have instructions that such videos are only for those who are 18 plus, but how many of us follow this instruction? It is entirely up to us to obey such instructions, most of the time we tend to do things that are forbidden or instructed. If a casino has 18 plus guidelines then it should be understood that people under the age of 18 can get into trouble if they gamble in those casinos. If we follow such instructions, we will not be harmed but we will gain, so we should follow such instructions.
But the problem is that the rules or recommendations or orders are only written, in reality I don't see this as a rule that is obeyed. Maybe if it comes directly to online casinos, this rule will be applicable, but if the casino is based online who guarantees that this rule will be carried out? I will not blame the casino, because here it is very clear that they only seek profit from the players. I also won't blame children under the age of 18, because after all, they might be curious because of the rampant advertisements about gambling that are very tempting.
In this day and age almost all casinos have online casinos, and that is actually the beginning of the problem, at the same time children under the age of 18 are also good at using gadgets, especially now that there are also many wallets that allow children to have their own banks. Parents are also not to be blamed entirely, although they may keep a close eye on their children's behavior, but in this day and age children are becoming smarter to trick their parents. One way is that the government must be present as an arbiter, they must be able to make policies that will minimize things like this, indeed this is difficult but not impossible to do.
754  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If a addict lives within, which method would you choose to help them on: March 05, 2024, 09:49:41 AM
If an addict lives with me, I would make him a bet he cant fulfil or win Cheesy I will try to trick him with "I bet you will able not to gamble for half a year" (actually any long period would do, but the longer the better). Will announce a solid price and wait to see how he will try to self cure. This might sound silly, but I think this might be helpful and do the trick. And I will repeat that few times. The effect will be unnoticeable from first glance, but it will at least train that person for self control.

To me this is not silly at all although an addicted person will never agree to 6 months without gambling even if the price is huge if he can fulfill this promise.I think a more realistic approach would be starting with 2 weeks or something along these lines which is more doable even for an avid gambler.Even this short amount of time can help achieve some sort of self control to the addicted person,of course is not going to help since the first try but the more tries the more patience gained.
This seems like a good idea to try and implement if you live with a gambling addict. But I also agree that it's too long and I don't think they would be able to agree to do it, because their urge to gamble every day would be stronger. I would probably start with a month first, I don't think that's a long time, nor is it a short time, although it might be a very long time in their mind. But I'm also sure they'll steal the time when they're not with us, because we can't be with them 24/7, right?
Apart from this, I also have other approaches such as showing them someone who was ruined by gambling. I'm sure they will also be evasive with this approach, including denying that they are an addict. But on the other hand I'm sure it will slowly enter into their thinking, yes they might be a little disturbed by the image of a person ruined by gambling. I try to play with their psychology, although the risk at the beginning is that they might think we are judging them about their gambling activities.

It's crazy the money line odds PSG to win is @2.75, that's really big considering PSG is leading and they will play with full squad. I don't expect Real Sociedad would win, probably a draw or PSG would win.

While the match Bayern Munich vs Lazio, honestly it's really unpredictable, betting Bayern Munich to win is not profitable because the odds is very low. I think both teams will score because both of them will try to score, Munich is looking for win while Lazio can find a space when Bayern Munich is too focus with their attacks.
Paris Saint-Germain's odds of winning against Real Sociedad in the Uefa Champions League round of 16 is too big to ignore. PSG is the favorite to reach the next round of the Uefa Champions League because they don't need to beat Real Sociedad before they can get through to the quarterfinals of the UCL. Even though PSG lost to Real Sociedad by 1-0, PSG will still qualify for the quarterfinals of the UCL through aggregate.
The 2-goal advantage they got in the first leg makes them more comfortable in the second leg later. Yes, they only need to draw and even when they lose, they still have the opportunity to qualify, provided they cannot lose by more than 1 goal. Paris Saint Germain is a big team in the domestic league, but somehow when they are in the Champions League I really doubt them. Maybe they are lucky this time because they face Real SOceidad, Real SOceidad is not a favorite team in the Champions League.
Assuming they make it out of this round, the next round will be against tougher teams and that's where Paris Saint Germain's real work lies. They repeatedly failed in the Champions League because they were unable to compete with other stronger teams. Even though they tried hard to win the title by bringing in star players for example, their efforts were always deadlocked. Even when they have 3 of the world's best players on the front line they still fail to be the best in the Champions League. And I think this season too they will end up the same as the previous season.

Bayer Leverkusen will most likely not experience the problem that Borussia Dortmund experienced last year. I am almost certain that they will be champions at the end of this year and I believe it. Xabi and his players can become champions without loss this year. Despite all these matches, they still haven't suffered a single defeat.
So far they've been very promising, I don't see them making many mistakes that would lead to disappointing results in the matches they've played. Unlike the case with Borussia Dortmund last season, even though they were at the top of the standings they often made unnecessary mistakes, and even they wasted many chances of matches that they could have won, but they could not do it very well. Even when determining who will be the champion, they failed in the match and only drew, even though if we look at the opponent, the opponent is actually not a very strong team.
Leverkusen are different, they seem to be focused in every match, Xabi seems to have managed to apply high discipline to his team so that his team is not easily complacent about what they can achieve so far. This is indeed very important, because if they are complacent about what they have achieved now, I am sure they will lose in the near future. They can celebrate after they really managed to lock up the title, because after that there is no more burden they have to carry.

They will play against Brighton in 2 days and this match is very important for them. Roma suffered its last defeat against Inter. I think they will beat Brighton. They will play in Italy in the first match. I think they will easily beat Brighton with their current home performance. Roma is doing very well in Serie A.
Yeah it looks like a sure win for Roma, there's no way Brighton will able to beat them. This is a good chance to bet because the money line odds Roma to win is @2.10, that's quite high. Liverpool vs Sparta Prague is also worth to bet, even though Liverpool will play without full squad, but we've seen Liverpool's Academy can play so well against Southampton. Sparta Prague is nothing different to Southampton.
It would be an exaggeration to say Brighton can't possibly win against AS Roma at their own ground. Because this is football and in football all have a chance, the difference is the percentage of how much chance each team has, in this case AS Roma and Brighton. I agree that AS Roma is the favorite team, but that does not necessarily guarantee they will win in this match, after all Brighton itself will certainly be as much as possible to provide resistance to AS Roma.
Actually Brighton is an ordinary team, but if you look at their journey in the Premier League, this team becomes very dangerous when dealing with teams that are stronger than them. For some reason, maybe their motivation and enthusiasm are greater when dealing with stronger teams, so that it encourages them to be able to play better and try to show that they are also able to provide resistance to teams that are better than them. This must be watched out by AS Roma, they cannot just underestimate their potential opponents this time.

There is also another point to consider.

Usually, large bets will be fewer than small bets.

This combined with the fact that most of the time you will lose, it means that there are way more chances to win when you bet less compared to betting high.

If you only win twice but lose five times betting low, you will remember as winning often.

If you bet only twice large and lost both times, you will be angry and assume you should have bet smaller.

In reality the odds are the same, but the brain makes up a story based on what you perceive.
I don't know if that's true or not, but it makes sense too, I'm sure all gamblers have felt this, where they bet using a small bet amount and can get a win and of course with the win they get, it makes their hands itch to want to increase the bet amount, and in the end I did place a bigger bet but never got a win, it just drained my finances. Is it possible that winning with a small bet amount is due to luck or is it the casino's rules? I don't understand it either but I've felt it.
It's true what you said, anger and emotions can happen when undesirable things happen, such as defeat, losing with a small or large betting amount is just as annoying if we can't accept reality then it will get worse too, but it's possible that defeat will occur after winning. big, where when we get a win we increase the bet amount and what happens is we lose until the winnings we have obtained are lost, which will be even more annoying and it is possible that we will become angry because we have done careless actions by continuing gambling after getting a big win.

Most gambles are solely based on luck, a method that you used today and it works, doesn't guarantee that the same method of gambling will work tomorrow or the next, so it's best to be dynamic, by trying different methods everything you gamble. Some gamblers can be superstitious and continue on one parten or style of gambling that they believe will bring them winnings, I guess they'll keep losing until the day that luck will shine on them, then they'll win and think that it's because of their beliefs, forgetting that they've been losing with the same parten all along. This is why it's important to gamble with the amount that you can afford to loose, so it won't matter much if you use one or multiple parten to gamble.
I agree with you. In any gambling game, I think luck plays a big role in determining whether you win or not. especially with slot gambling, of course luck plays a big role in winning, many people force themselves to gamble to be able to win, so there are many cases of losses that occur due to gambling. There are those who think that with the gambling they are doing now they can't win, but they think maybe by gambling another day they will get lucky, and I think that's good, rather than spending money in just one gambling session it would just be a waste.
also with other types of gambling that require skill to win, maybe they only think about skill, think about skill that can make them win, but in my opinion, of course luck still plays a role in determining whether they win or not. It's true what you said, it's very important to bet as much as we can, don't force us to bet beyond our abilities, that will just make everything fall apart.

Do you prefer games where you know right away whether you've won (or lost) casino style, or do you prefer other games like sports betting? Do you have any other favorite games?
I like casino games, because I think that's where I can get and feel the sensation of pleasure, tension and also sadness hahaha. Grin
I often play slots, because the first time I knew about gambling was slot gambling and as far as I know, currently the most popular gambling is probably slot gambling, because there are big multipliers that can be obtained (maybe). but if we are lucky we can get it and can feel various reactions, annoyed or happy.
Also, I once won quite a big win in slot gambling, so it made me addicted, I'm honest, I'm addicted to playing slots, when I first got to know slot gambling I always wanted to do it, but now I don't. because I think gambling is only a game that drains money, not one that can generate definite profits. Everyone has different tastes, so there are definitely those who don't like slot gambling but like others, that doesn't matter because that is their individual right.
