781  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you gamble because you don't have sufficient money? on: October 03, 2023, 11:57:51 AM
I was in argument with someone. His view is that people who gamble are those that what they have is not sufficient for them and so they try to make more money from gambling. He said if you have sufficient money to take care of your needs that you won't think of gambling. He made reference to some rich people, who don't gamble because they have sufficient money to even gift to charity but that those rich who still gamble are only addicted to it not just because of the money. Therefore, that the percentage of the rich gambling is very small compared to those in middle class and lower class.

So my question is, is the percentage of the rich gambling lower than the middle and lower class?
Gambling is not for the rich, the poor, the middle class to make money. People who gamble may take it as entertainment. There are many rich people who also participate in this gambling game. The rich are more addicted to money than the middle class and the poor, so they participate in gambling to win more money. I have seen most of the rich people bet on gambling to win more money. It is relatively rare for the middle class and the poor to participate in gambling. Because the poor and the middle class have a certain limit of money to spend according to that limit, they participate in various calculations before participating in gambling. But even when the rich have enough money, they participate in more bets in the hope of attracting more money. I will always say the poor middle class don't gamble for money they gamble for entertainment. But only the rich participate for the money.
How can you say the poor doesn't gamble for money? Is there anyone that one to remain in poverty? If you don't know what to say,then you switch to some other topic that you can be very good on.As far as I know,everybody who engages in gambling,doest that to make money,whether the rich or the poor,infact the poor tries to gamble more because the tendency of getting rich is constantly on their mind,and they would want to do anything possible to meet up with life.The only difference in this is that the rich gamble with high amount of money,which increase their chances of winning than the poor,who gamble more games with lesser amount because they dont have the means to stake high on games.However,when luck wants to be on their side,they still win.

I don't understand why bookmakers give such high odds for Fulham (4.0) vs Chelsea (2.0)... Chelsea have only managed to score one goal in September... I won't say how Chelsea are playing away this season... Of course there could be a draw today, but I think Fulham have a better chance of winning...

The odds of this match seem a bit strange to me.  I think chelsea's performance is very erratic which is why the bookmakers have given such odds in this match . There is no way to say for sure whether Chelsea will win.
Chelsea's squad is strong. However, their performance is very poor.  The team won only one out of 6 matches. However, the opponent Fulham is not in a very strong position. Fulham's performance has also been erratic. This is why bookmakers have given such odds. I would bet not probably. Maybe I can change my mind if I like Chelsea's starting XI. But I think Chelsea will be able to win today's match.
I'm surprised that Fulham lost to Chelsea who aren't inform,or have they picked form from Briton's match in the Carabou cup? I don't understand.I know Pochetino is a good coach,but Despite the odd they gave Fulham,I expected Fulham to win Chelsea because the blues are one of the worst teams in the premier league for now,losing most of their matches,and from what I have seen so far,they won't still be anywhere near European football in the next two years coming,unless they hire someone like Pep or Jugen Klopp or Zidane,that's when they can be back to Europe.When I said that, doesn't mean I'm doubting what Pochetino can do,but Chelsea as a club is so complicated,and I'm afraid they won't give him the time he deserves to execute his game plan till it works for him.

Why are Fulham's chances higher than Chelsea? In my opinion, this is just a prediction from the bookies where they see the results of several matches and rankings between Fulham and Chelsea this season, and maybe this is just a trap from the bookies to influence everyone's minds to bet on Fulham. I don't think it's possible that Chelsea can win the match against Fulham, but I also don't know who will win this match, because this season both teams have looked very bad in some of the matches they have played. So it is very difficult to predict who will win this match.
In my own opinion,I think Chelsea don't have a chance to win this game between them and Fulham,I have already placed my bet on Fulham winning this one, Chelsea are not in a good shape at all and can't stand the force that Fulham will bring.Fulham are at home,and any team at home has a little advantage because they will be playing infront of their fans will will be singing and praising their names which will energise them to play well against the blues who have been so bad this season.Their results are not encouraging,and I feel for Pochetino because very soon, Chelsea will get him sacked for not meeting up to  expectations.

Liverpool should have been able to maintain a 1-1 draw against Tottenham, but unfortunately Joel Matip intended to throw the ball but the ball went to the top right of the goal and went in in the final minute of extra time 90+6.
All Lovepool players fought in vain to maintain a draw with 8 players, and I think Liverpool won this match because they worked hard and tried to maintain a draw with only 8 players.

Joel Matip You have disappointed Liverpool fans because it happened in the final seconds of a hard-fought match.
So Tottenham eventually win the match, but Liverpool really try. My respect for Liverpool was that they played well even with two red cards; their performance was very good, because in all my aspectaction, Tottenham will take advantage of the two red cards that they give Liverpool and score more than what they scored, and the game could have ended in a draw if not for enough pressure that caused Liverpool to score their own goal.
This was one game that I was looking forward to watching,but my work schedule didn't allow me watch it.Tothenham might be the real deal this season,as they and Arsenal are the only two sides that haven't lost any premier league match this season.I thought the match between them and Liverpool were going to end in a draw,but they eventually came out as the winner.kudos to them for winning that one.They might be sitting first or second ontop of the table now,as Manchester city will sit second because they lost to Wolves.It is no surprise to me that Manchester City lost today because they lost Rodri and Debruyne due to injury and red card respectively,while the other players at the club are not an exact replacement to the duo.Mancity will be facing Arsenal in their next match,and that for sure,they will still lose because Debruyne and Rodri won't still play due to red card and injury.Its really going to be a tough season for them.

Arsenal were unstoppable today in their bid to close the gap between them and Manchester city,as their rival City lost to struggling Wolves in a 2-1 defeat.The Arsenal's game was so interesting because I never thought Saka and Declan Rice would be fit for that match,I was so surprised when I saw them in the starting line up.Arsenal are now sitting third in the league table,and they are anxiously waiting for the least mistake from either Manchester City or Totthenham to Top the league.Remember this season is a season they invested heavily in the market,and are looking forward to getting a positive result from their summer business.Their aim is to win the premier league,and go far in the champions league or probably win it too.It isn't difficult to achieve that,it's just determination.

Don't start it, then there's nothing to worry about.
Initially, you will enjoy it until it becomes more intense and you want to play more. Then, there will be a point that it becomes a revenge game where you want to chase all your losses including from the past weeks or months ago. Being a gambler means you hate losing and you are expecting that the RTP would help out to bring all your money back but that's not how online gambling works. You lose now, you lose it forever, you win now, it's up to you if you want out or keep on risking it.
This is the reason why many are getting addicted to it, it's either because of greed wanting more profits, or you want revenge from the online casino and pay all your losses which is impossible to happen unless you gamble more.
Gambling is not worse as taking a drug, and not all those who tried gambling ended up destroying their lives. As long as we are only playing amounts we can afford to lose, we won't have that revenge feeling. Besides, there are still times where we can get lucky and we can recover our past losses or even be on profit. Online gambling is not different to offline gambling in terms of risks.

I think some gambling addicts are not targeting a profit anymore because even though they can win a huge amount, they can still continue playing. But I won't say that they are only playing for fun alone. They are only attached to the activity and they should do it to feel a continuous pleasure.
Gambling atimes is fun,and as long as we are sports lovers,the urge to gamble will continuously be in us because we love the activities that relates to it.Most persons take gambling as their lifetime job,and that happens because they love the activity, as it brings no stress,all you need do is to sit down in your house,and predict games,and if you are lucky enough with your predictions,then there is a chance for you to smile that week.To me,the most amazing sport to engage my gambling activities in is football,because thats where my love lyes,That's the reason I have been dropping sure odds in my posts for people that read my posts.
For this week end, Newcastle will win,
Arsenal will win,Everton will win,
manchester City will win
Totthenham and Liverpool will like play a draw.just as
Briton and Aston Villa will also end up in a draw.

Newcastle are on fire recently.  

I agree with you, Newcastle United winning back to back games in impressive styles is one to give them more confidence and relief. Also, with form building and players returning to form, returning from injury; i think they have hit the gear

Up next for Newcastle United is Burnley; a team struggle for points this season and also winless in 5 games; Newcastle United will hit them hard, i would say a win and over 2.5 goals is certain haha. I believe 3 points sealed up for Newcastle United, whats your opinion guys ?
We all know that Newcastle is in the best condition and of course the match against Burnley will be a fairly easy match for Newcastle because Burnley is not a strong club, it is a club at the bottom of the standings and what makes it easier is that Newcastle will play at home, of course Newcastle will show the best but Burnley will try hard in this match to steal points from Newcastle to avoid the relegation zone but it won't be easy Newcastle won't let that happen.
Newcastle are sure to win against Burnley in the next match. Burnley has always been one of the bottom teams in the English Premier League. The team has also played six matches with each team so far and Burnley are yet to win any of the first six matches. Their only achievement this season is a draw.  
Statistics show that out of the last five matches, Newcastle have won four matches against this team and lost one match. Football bettors look forward to this type of match the most.  

Most bets will be on Newcastle in this match. Could see some possibility of this match being a draw if this match was at Burnley's home ground. As this match will be played at Newcastle's home ground, I am sure Newcastle will win this match by a big margin.
This Newcastle side are one of the strongest side in the premier league now since last season till now,they have been playing good football and are expected to go far the in the champions league this season.I love the way they play their game,because they almost have thesame pattern of play with Arsenal.And this their game against Burnley,I predict it to be an easy win for them as they are beginning to hit their best form.They won City in the Carabou cup within the week,to show that they are a strong side cotending for both the premier league tittle and the Champions league tittie altogether.It is a win win for them in today's game.And for Manchester United's game,I predict that game to be a draw.

3 points means a lot for Barcelona because they managed to reclaim the top position in the standings which was previously placed by Girona. Even Xavi has so far been able to maintain Barcelona's unbeaten performance in Laliga in the 8 matches they have played. For tomorrow's match, Real Madrid can reclaim the top of the standings from Barcelona if Real Madrid is able to beat Girona. On the other hand, Girona could also become the leader of the standings this week if they manage to beat Real Madrid in front of their supporters.
That's right, Girona will play with the crazy support of their fans and this factor may well play in their favor. Also, for Girona, any extra day spent at the head of the standings is a reason to remember it with pride, not like Real Madrid, for whom being the leader of the standings is a daily routine that has happened and is happening many times. Moreover, while the game of Real Madrid is difficult to call perfect and balanced, and therefore Girona should have chances at least for a draw, which will leave the team above Real Madrid.
Girona Is a very strong side this season,standing untop of the table with hundred percent record when we have teams like Real Madrid and Barcelona is not easy.They will show how good they are by either drawing Madrid or winning Madrid in this weekend's encounter or clash.It is a game that will determine whether they are the real deal this season,and if they are able to win Madrid,then it will surely be a boost in morals to their players that they can win anybody,nomatter the club they play ,it would remove that fear factor and make them strive more to remain untop.we'll all wait to see how this game will end,but I think it's really going to be an interesting game to watch.

Arsenal needs 3 points to continue chasing Man City in the championship race. Arsenal currently has 14 points after 6 rounds. The gap between them and thirt-place team Brighton is only 1 point. With second-place Liverpool 2 points behind and defending champion Man City 4 points away. Arsenal is playing very stably at the moment.
Arsenal will visit Bournemouth. Arsenal have not lost a match this season, but they need to limit draws if they want to chase Man City in the championship race. For Bournemouth, winning is an almost impossible task, but hoping to get 1 point will be what the whole team is aiming for.

Arteta got many famous players for Arsenal this summer and obviously, they expect to see their team have a closer race with Macnshter City or even win the premier league this season because Pep Guardiola didn't spend money like Arteta did in this season, and now Arsenal should win the game against Bournemouth tomorrow, however, this game can't be hard for Arteta and his players and I think betting on Arsenal for this game can be safe bet considering the past results they got.

You cannot just conclude that the game between Arsenal and Bournemouth is going to be a workover for Arsenal because every team in the Premier league are a too side,and the moment a big team starts underating what  another team that is not in the top four can do,then that team is detrimental to losing.Arsenal are a top side,and I predict them to win this game easily as well because they've shown a sign that they are stronger than last season,although they haven't gotten the points they got last season with the numbers of games played so far,but they look stronger this season and posses the ability to win games under pressure.This season is really going to be very competent,therefore for Arsenal to remain a top side,they must do everything possible to get points in every Match they play.

Sancho should realize that he is not in a club that is managed properly and act accordingly. I get that he is not the reason why the management at United sucks, but being a child and acting like this he is lowering his value. Look at bruno Fernandes, he has been playing at a mismanaged club for years now and still kept his value up.

If Sancho wants to leave one day, he needs to keep his value up, shut up about it and go out and play your best game and constantly get the best out of yourself, if they do not decide to play you, play whenever you are given minutes and as soon as your contract is up, stop playing and go to another club for free to get more minutes, could be better team, could be worse team, just get your minutes for free in another club.
Sancho is a good player who is supposed to do well at United,but because of the way the club plays football,maybe I think it doesn't really suit the style of United's play.Sancho is a very good player,and I expected him to be one of the main figures at United,but it's unfortunate that he hasn't been able to make a very good impact on the team, I prefer to use Antony than to play Sancho because Antony really knows how to dribble,and he is also very pacy,which makes so many defenders scared of him.However,the combination of the two in one team isn't bad, but they aren't really functioning the way I expected them to function at those wings.

It is dangerous for the younger people specifically minors to engage in gambling activities because they are not developed yet to handle the temptation and most of these minors ends up being addicted to gambling, affecting their studies and relationship with others.  Gambling is never been an asset but instead many find it a liability that negatively affect young adult that resulted in harming them instead of helping them due to their immaturity and little experience handling the situation.



If the minor get involved in the gambling,they will not have the capacity to handle the loss.They may commit suicide by the small loss in the gambling,now the children doesn’t had a huge potential to handle the loss or problem.This generation had very weak heart and easy commit suicide as compared to old generation.So it’s true,we should keep the children from the gambling.Specially the children who doesn’t have completed 18 years should stay away from gambling.The negative impact of gambling should not affect the young people.

Nah, small losses to commit suicide? Nope I don't believe that much. What I believe is  a bit worse than that eventually. Small losses isn't noticeable on the parents end, so they'll come looking to take money from their parents to try and feed their gambling urge. Suicide comes after when the kid is in deep trouble eventually that it hurts him emotionally, especially when being confronted with the parents for being crazy about gambling.
I remember someone posted a student who committed suicide because he lost all his money from gambling intended for his studies.

How can people be so stupid to the extent of using your school fee and money for other important things to gamble,such person is not yet ready for life because he hasn't really known how making money is hard that's why it won't mean anything to remove the money that has been kept aside for some other important thing to gamble forgeting that no game is guaranteed anywhere.There is no assurance over any game,all games can cut,therefore,it isn't adviceable to use any money that is so important to you for any thing that relates to gambling or anything in the form of gambling.And for the aspect of youths gambling,I think it's an experience one needs to have so he would know how to advice other people coming after him about gambling and it addiction.

I expected Manchester United to be very concerned about their issue of squad depth but I don’t see any signs of the club working in that direction and it has been a major problem for the team. Erik Ten Hag seems not to be getting this ideas yet and it could affect the team’s performance this season and also have a huge impact on the club’s league position at the end of the season.
Manchester United will hit form at the right time,thats what I know,this was how it happened last season too when they were losing games and not meeting up to expectation,but after some couple of games,they started playing good football,which later ended them up in the top four,so I Still think that is still going to happen this season.
After watching them win convincingly against Crystal Palace in the Carabou cup two nights ago,I see Manchester United winning this weekend fixture,and with Ten Hag playing Taarabt at defencive midfield position along with Casemiro,it looked more better pairing their two,and it might just be thesame formation he will want to be using from now henceforth,so I see Manchester United doing well in the couple of games coming.
794  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Behaviours of gamblers you dislike. on: September 28, 2023, 10:46:43 PM
one of it is the fact that some gamblers becomes furious after like multiple losses. i just think its not a must to keep playing while you are losing, you can walk away and come back and also its just two options you have and its either win or lose so when the wins are not coming yet they will keep on playing and losing. maybe because of the addiction.
You won't know how hard it is to go when you have lost a huge amount of mone,it is only those who are into gambling that can tell this more better and tell how difficult it is to move on.The only thing that remains in your mind is to continue playing,maybe you might eventually win and recover all the ones you've lost.The addiction that follows this thing is something one cannot control,it is beyond your power,and it takes only someone who is has great self control to be able to stop while you have lost a huge sum of money.Look at other aspects of the gambler's behavior that you dislike because  everybody that have lost money must be angry and won't be in an happy mood,therefore you don't expect them to just walk away like that when they still want to win back their money.

Comparison of the experience factors: PSG is more experienced than Newcastle and PSG's experience is not above AC Milan, but Newcastle is able to predict that bettors will lose money because the result is that AC Milan is unable to beat Newcastle.
What you say is true, the experience factor is very influential when playing at UCL. But for Newcastle playing in the UCL league is nothing new, because they have played in the UCL even though they have been absent for a long time and are now playing in the UCL league again, but their mentality is still there, this was proven when they drew against Milan. So in my opinion Psg's desire to beat Newcastle is not easy.

Quote
In the second match, PSG will have to learn from AC Milan because Newcastle cannot be used as a complementary team in group f. Eddie Howe is not just any coach, he is an intelligent coach who can quickly understand what the team needs to get maximum results.
Playing in front of their own supporters will make a difference for Newcastle in facing PSG.
Yes, that's right, Eddie Howe is not just any coach, he has many strategies for the teams they face. We can see that he made some changes in the last two matches which were very good and changed the outcome of the match. Just look at Newcastle's landslide win over Sheff Utd and Newcastle have also knocked Man City out of the EFL Cup, and I have to give them a lot of confidence that they can go on and win against PSG, at least they can hold PSG to a draw.

Newcastle had a bad start in this season and especially in Premier League, they had bad performances in the games we saw from them.
The EFL Cup was very important for Pep Guardiola and his team because they wanted to fight for all the possible trophies at the same time but unfortunately, While we were waiting to see Manchester City win that game they lost it with a 1-0 result and how they should try harder for the remaining tournament they can have.


The defeat for Manchester City last night shows that the team is no longer on the level they were last season,they have dropped form a little beat and that is based in the fact that they have sold some of their players like Gundogan,Mahrez and Debruyne has also been rules out due to injury.Although they still maintain their hundred Percent record in the premier league because they've not lost nor drawn any of their league games this season,but the lost against Newcastle in the carabou cup might just be the beginning of their losing.I think next game might be quite hard for them as they will be playing wolves,and they will go into that game without their key players Debruyne and Rodri who was sent off in his their last game,they struggled to win that game with the red,so I think their next game against Wolves will not be an easy one for them.
796  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Minimum Age to gamble on: September 27, 2023, 11:52:07 PM
I think they should go beyond just 18 to 21. There should also be some kind of awareness as age doesn't guarantee Maturity. Some people beyond 21 still are immatured enough to  gamble.

There should be an educational system for people who want to start gambling and it should be done in collaboration with casinos and all outlets involved in the gambles space.
18 and above was the actual age that was set for anybody who wants to gamble,but Today's society and the digital children that we have now won't even want to hear or know that,to them,as long as they've known their left and right,they think they can do anything with their lifes regardless of their age.So age no longer matter to the children of today when it comes to gambling,and I also believe that the minimum age of 18 was set to reduce the rate at which people gamble,and to reduce the rate at which young people go into crime due to the fact that they are addicted to this gambling thing.
797  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The madness of gambling addicts. on: September 27, 2023, 05:40:30 PM
I agree with your opinion, that a gambler will not become an addict if he is aware of all the risks when playing, if he plays too much, puts money in the hope of winning, of course that is impossible, on the contrary he will lose. all the money will be lost. And that will cause problems in his family and the problem in him is that he will regret having done that without thinking about other people.

In the case of gambling addicts they are harmful not only to the family but also to the society. At the beginning greed works in them to get more and when the rush reaches the point of desperation when everything is lost, taking a break from gambling will seem like the last thing you want, but it is necessary. Leaving gamblers after losing their large amount of money will give you the space and time to evaluate why it happened and how to prevent it from happening again. But a responsible gambler does not get greedy after earning a profit, they know the right rules of gambling so they are less likely to suffer.
Very few people normally have the mind to leave after they have suffered loss,the only thing that rings in the mind of a loser is to try again,but it's always very unfortunate that the winning won't still come,which is always  really frustrating.
Gambling addiction is one thing that has destroyed so many lifes,but addicts find it very difficult to stop it because the spirit that backs gambling is stronger than one can even imagine or think of.It just what one needs to do with caution to avoid being in a serious mess of not being able to do without it,which has had so many person lose their lifes as a result of depression.

It would be interesting if Chelsea ended up being relegated because of course, that would be a big lesson for their management. But yes, it looks like if Chelsea keeps Pochettino until the end of the season, then it seems quite possible for Chelsea to be relegated. Moreover, if for example Pochettino is fired in the middle of this season and Chelsea appoints the wrong coach again, then the final path will indeed be relegation. Because basically, the players that Chelsea currently has can be assumed to be new players and do not have strong chemistry between the players. Therefore, it is natural that Chelsea is still having difficulty forming a better team at this moment.
There's not Interesting about Chelsea being relegated after spending millions just to develop the club to a better standard that would be a very bad record for the club and for the owner of the team, I don't expect them to sack the coach yet cause they might be in a hurry to appoint another wrong manager, Pochettino is not a bad coach and he deserves to be given more time to build his team, but i think he needs to act fast and come up with a better strategy for them to start winning games.
 
 The things about the team is that they're playing good football  but finding it difficult to score goals, I feel they should had allowed Lukaku stay to support Jackson who' was a second striker for his previous team and inexperienced as well, they'll be playing against Brighton today and I doubt if they'll win cause Brighton are in a better form than Chelsea this season.
Chelsea are really in a mess at the moment,and if care is not taken, Pochetino will definitely loose his job,which will be very pathetic because everyone loves the coach,it is very sad that things are not happening the way he planned.I am very confident that he wanted to build a strong young team that can combat with any team in the league,but it is just so sad that he isnt getting the right formula and strategy to win games.About five games have been played already in the premier league,and they are sitting 14 on the league table which is very bad for a big club like Chelsea,and the kind of investment they made in the last transfer window.They just still have to be patient with him,maybe till December.

Real Madrid could make 20 shot attempts, but it couldn't be goals because Real Madrid has no top striker as a machine goal. Rodrygo played underperformance, while Bellingham may be unlucky at this match. Unfortunately, Real Madrid has no striker (CF) that can be a mainstay player for scoring goals. So, when Rodrygo and Bellingham can't play optimally, it is easy for Atletico to stop Real Madrid players for scoring goals.
A strong Frontline has been a major problem of Madrid since the beginning of the season just that they managed to cover it in previous match and made it not too obvious until they met Atletico who exposed this weakness of theirs.I wasn't expecting it to be an easy game with Madrid tho, because AthletiCo is not a week team at all to contend with in all sense.

A top striker who would have scored all the needed goals was very much important as the others were just attackers who couldn't convert their passes and assist in to goals. It was sad atletico had their first goal in the first four minutes of the game, I think this also weakend the moral of the players at Madrid, early goals often sounds like weakness on your side and superiority for your opponent.

Since their weak point have been made obviously clear it's left with Madrid to work on improvement so as to get better results in subsequent games as they can't go far in the champions league with such performance, they will definitely have to improve if they really want to go far in the champions league. Congrats to Athletico they deserved the win.
I said it that it would get to a point where Madrid would miss Karim Benzema even if they still have young stars that are scoring goals on regular basis,they still need a top striker that can give them that assurance in goal just the way Benzema gave them.They have Mudric and the rest of creative players in the team that can give an attacker assists to score,but they have none.Maybe Osimhen or Mbape would have been the best thing that they should have thought of buying in the January transfer window.Now they just have to wait for the next transfer window before they would make any signings of an attacker because they really need one in the middle of the park.

Arsenal injury woes continues as Saka is said to have joined the list of injured players who are injured.This one will really worry Arsenal as Six of their key players are now out because of injury.Martinelli,Declan Rice,Trosard,Partey,Saka,and Timber.They are all first team players and it would really affect Arsenal because none of them will be available to play on Saturday against Bournemouth.I just think Arteta needs to work on the medical department because the rate at which key players are pulling out as a result of injury is really becoming alarming.Arsenal will be facing Manchester City by  nextweek,and we hope by then,Partey,Declan Rice,Saka and Martinelli should be back.
