I don’t know if I’m really staying my points well but I wish to know if people really have to gamble without intentions of making money?
The intention to profit is still there because they stack up even if you gamble with smaller amounts, but the difference is that you take it less seriously, unlike others who put in more time and effort because you know that gambling is more likely going to make you lose money at some point. Those gamblers would still try to win because winning usually makes it fun, but they're more aware of their capabilities.

what do you think?. Do you believe he is right with the rigid approach to gambling?, also should I continue convincing him to try out something new and enjoy these great offers?.
I disagree with the addiction part, but it's understandable if he wants to stay with what works best with him since there's no need to change when the current casino is already enough. There's no point in convincing him once more, knowing that those promotional offers or bonuses won't be enough to change his mind. In the poll, I voted sometimes only because some casinos can remain competitive and are willing to one-up their competitor if it means getting more players in the future.

In a competition like this one you can't afford to fallback by putting everything in one basket at this stage unless you ready to hit rock bottom should the zero points follow. And it's commendable that you applied your law of probability well and showed your risk management skills, otherwise had Bayern done justice this would have been another story ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) !!! And personally my gut feeling told me to go with a Bayern besting but I had already submitted my picks and no VAR here for my late change... That's the situation for me in Pot B, currently at the near bottom of the leaderboard with little stake to lose. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I also imagined Bayern potentially waking up any time, which led me to make a plan B as i've already made the mistake of going all in one of the previous weeks, gaining nothing in the end.

That 90+ minute goal from Shakhtar saved me from trailing by two points. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I need a solid bounce back in the second half, and hopefully, the Southampton match delivers with tons of goals. Also, how long does it take before the weekly free bets are credited? I just don't want to waste it since they usually expire in a few days.

Let's go Lazio made the upset. I knew they could do it, but I regret that I only had half of my stakes. Initially, I had all ten points on them before finalizing my prediction and used the other half for next week's matches. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

Here in my hood, someone staked $1,000 to a bet with little odds and to all hope that there was no possibilities of him loosing the game but revise be the case that the game got cut off in just 3 minutes for the game over and then he could had cashed his winning.
It's a stretch to say that the bet had no business losing because you can never count out underdogs until the final second of the game. Those late comebacks always happen, and it's why I always tone down my bets if I want to bet on close matchups. Also, going big in a favorite bet is always a recipe for disaster when bookies like to overvalue favorites, and then they become a trap for several bettors.

I'll be counting on you @ralle14 to win your last game against dbshck to save my ass ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) . I doubt i'll get another six-pointer, but we'll see if my luck would carry over from the previous round. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Both teams are pretty dominant in this tournament so I really wish I hit this, although this one is relatively at smaller stake than I usually bet but hey its going to be pretty nice to hit this bet though. Honestly, Im quite unsure with Team Spirit on dota2 but I bet its going to be relatively easy 2-0 for Team Spirit on cs2
Donk and the boys delivered against Faze, while Yatoro and the gang got outdrafted so hard by Gaimin Gladiators. I guess Gaimin Gladiator is back to playoffs mode because that 2-0 win against Team Spirit was too clean from start to finish. We have a few lower-bracket matches today and who would've expected all the higher-seeded teams are one series away from elimination? ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) I'm only sticking with the Team Spirit series and skipping the Team Liquid series because LGD looked worse, and the other series is somewhat off, with XG being overvalued mainly because of their better group stage results. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2024%2F02%2F12%2Fv9iWd.png&t=665&c=OnmD5qBk5SUk9Q)

AC Milan with a solid 1-0 win at home against Napoli to give me a crucial point in our matchup and it all comes down to the Super Bowl question with the Chiefs winning or not. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) So far, it's been a tight defensive match, with both sides having to turn the ball over, and i'm praying for the Chiefs to come alive because the Niners are starting to gain a slight advantage. Edit: Wow, it's unreal that the Chiefs edged the Niners in OT only because their kicker missed the extra point around the fourth quarter.

Just how competitive is it to win here?
The bet-free 6-6 promo is somewhat competitive, and if you check the results from the previous rounds, most winners always end up with 30 or more points. On top of hitting 6/6 match results and over/under, you need to hit at least 3 or 4 correct scores at the minimum since they give the most points (5 per score). The last time I participated I had a similar result and fell short on the correct scores (1/6) while having 5/6 on both results and totals.

After hitting my double-up parlay from the other thread, it's time to back the Chiefs again. They already gave me a few good wins before this, so I don't mind losing. I also have KC to win in my BSFL prediction, which could determine my situation in the relegation zone, plus the KC prediction in Volgastallion's prediction contest. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2024%2F02%2F11%2Fv7bdN.png&t=665&c=A7bE344LuJ12xw) Hopefully, we can cash all of our Super Bowl predictions, and congrats to those who got some of the free bets from the main thread. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

We also have a daily special for this match, but I didn't go for any of them because this could easily go in favor of Man United and I lost my confidence on Aston Villa after seeing them get their first home loss against Newcastle. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2024%2F02%2F11%2Fv4xr1.png&t=665&c=lMsZUFGwsOtjrw) I still have a mini parlay prepared based on this week's BSFL questions and if this hits, i'll probably roll it over for the Superbowl match. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2024%2F02%2F11%2Fv4lPl.png&t=665&c=0KYl4yllwq0piQ)

From my experience, it's probably Rugby and Aussie rules. If i'm going to make a comparison, they're a bit similar to American football. I remember having a few profitable runs with these sports before through the help of some bettors who frequently share their insights and opinions.
Upsets and unpredictable results still happen, but eventually, you'll find that consistency and know the teams to avoid. Unfortunately, i've stopped betting on them because i'm not as interested, unlike the other sports, and maybe the league has become more competitive.

Looks like FaZe swept MOUZ under the rug ! Well not really, MOUZ was almost able to hold them off in the 2nd map but yeah it was pretty close right there. It looks like the other team that would potentially make it to the final would be Team Spirit and this could be another potential 2-0 for Team Spirit against Faze in the final again. Meanwhile lets bet another one on Team Spirit vs Falcons
Congrats on the wins for both series and surprisingly, betting on the playoffs has been great with all the favorites delivering the wins. I assume the grand finals would be the same when Team Spirit is performing like they're the team to beat in this tournament. Also, with the BB tournament later today, i'll be making a parlay on both Team Spirit(Dota and CS), as they're both favorites at around 1.4 decimal odds. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2024%2F02%2F11%2FvoSHb.png&t=665&c=cThp3KJ-tCtaDg)

Weekly Update( link) Removed Bets, Bitvest, and Eloncoin from the list. Moved BullBear and MetaWin from PNYC to CFNP. Moved Stake and WasabiWallet from CFNP to OFNP. Edit: @ralle14, it's not a complain at all but just a suggestion :-)
Yep, no problem.

My approach would be similar to what yahoo suggested it shouldn't be that hard to make time for your friend and another time for gambling. Even if most of his friends would quit for good, there's no telling how effective that could be when it still depends on the affected person, and there's a high possibility for him to continue without the influence of his friends. Quitting becomes a temporary fix when his gambling problem could still go on, and at that point, it's better if they find another solution that could help him overall.
