Without a doubt, Chelsea still has a long way to go in terms of finishing. Their finishing and creativity in today's match weren't encouraging at all even though they won by 2 goals, they still lacked a coordinated performance that could easily lead to their victory in big and small matches. Chelsea are lucky that they played against a less tough team like Sheffield United. If they played against a big team with this kind of performance they used playing against Sheffield United, they would have lost 3 points The fact that Chelsea managed to secure a win over just demonstrates just their job being done, nothing special. It's so clear to see that Chelsea have to improve on all aspects. it's premature to say that they already have something to compete back at high level. They might be working on specific aspects of their game, but the performance in today's game is not a reflective of their potential in upcoming games. I am sure many non sentimental Chelsea fans that watched that game would agree that the win the Chelsea team that played against Sheffield united had today doesn't show any form of convincible act to say they have started getting back up. The performance was poor as usual with lack of agility and clinical attacks. If this Chelsea team had played against a better side than Sheffield they Chelsea would not have won't the game. Like you said, all they demonstrated was a job been done, they are not yet ready to burn energy for the love of the club's badge, many lazy folks that have to understand that they need every point in the competition to stay up the table. There best is just not enough yet. |

Haven't you heard of self-exclusion in gambling? What is self-exclusion?
Self-exclusion means asking one or multiple gambling companies to prevent you from gambling with them for a set length of time, usually between 6 months and 5 years. This means you will not be able to gamble within their venue, or via their website or app. Gambling companies must offer you the option to self-exclude by law.
https://www.begambleaware.org/self-exclusionSo yes, you can do go to the gaming commission and ask yourself to be ban. I know a guy that has been banned, but he didn't do it himself, his wife did. The wife call the casinos and describe his husband and obviously his identification. And then he told me that he was surprised when he go to a casino and that he was stop and was banned from entering. Later he found out that his wife is the one responsible because that time he was really addicted to that point that he is playing money that did not belong to him (he was a government employee that time). If I were to be addicted in gambling someday in the future I'll do anything possible to kick my ass off that addiction wheel. I mean anything legitimately possible! Many persons suffering from gambling addiction if you go closer you will comprehend that they do really don't like their attitude they live with and are fighting to resist it but are unable to totally delink themselves from the addiction, that even when they take the decision to stop they later find themself going back to it. Desperate times demands desperate actions/decisions, for that gambler it was his wife, from the one I heard of it was his family members that went about all betshops in their community with his photo asking them never to let him gamble in their betshops. I even created a topic about that here in the forum thy raised alot of discussion. If there's any way we can assist anyone around up that's struggling with gambling addiction from stopping it we shouldn't hesitate, they might not like it in the beginning but with time when they get their reasoning back on track they will forever appreciate you did whatever you did for them. |

Manchester City are playing right now against Crystal Palace which is defending with 7 players and sometimes with the whole team, yet Grealish managed to score a goal after VAR verification.
Grealish knowing that there is now competition for his place in the team is making sure he impresses the coach now while he has the opportunity to before Jeremy Doku returns. Chelsea in their own game against Sheffield have lacked the creativity to create enough chances to score. The game is drawn in the first half, and with less time to play now, Chelsea would have a bigger problem if Sheffield scored the first goal because they have defended well so far and will try to defend more better if they can score a goal. I suspect that Nkunku will have some time to play in this second half, if he scores if given a chance, that will be a good way to make his return. That will be a tougher rock for Chelsea to crack through should Sheffield UTD have to score in this game before Chelsea, Sheffield have proven to have a strong defense in this game so a goal from them they will just sit behind and defend their goal till the end. I am not impressed with Chelsea's defense and midfield, the defenders are slow behind while the midfielders are not making decisive crosses to the attacking front who I think are doing better today than in their previous games only that the ball is not regularly getting to them from the midfield. I expected Chelsea to come back into the second half with a hunger to score and win this game. |

We all need to learn to be able to control our emotions when we see the market turning red because I see many of them who are not prepared when price changes occur and that can make them make the wrong decisions if they panic. In investing, we must be prepared to lose, because we know that the price of Bitcoin is quite volatile and could also be beyond our expectations. That's why use money that is not used for other purposes and also doesn't become a burden on your mind when prices suddenly drop drastically.
I see things about Bitcoin which we should put into consideration. first is having the knowledge about Bitcoin which most people lack some person may decide to invest due to the Bitcoin trend around the world and still not know anything concerning Bitcoin which they put their money into. Secondly having the resource to Buy and Hold. In a case we're there is no sufficient amount to buy create a long term budget and slice down the amount in currency value or amount of Bitcoin that you can be able to accumulate at specific intervals (DCAing) . Loans and borrowed money should be exempted from the list of resource for use to buy Bitcoin. Patience and emotional control helps in regulating the mind and body from getting panic when the price begins to DIP. Yes if the person has the knowledge of volatility then it becomes a no problem to the investor. Having the resource to buy and hold sounds as though you must have so much altogether to be capable to be a successful bitcoin hodler. Simply put, from what @obim34 has said, with bitcoin knowledge and addition to a sustainable/reliable source of income flow like a job you can delineate a certain percentage for DCAing which makes bitcoin accumulation much easier to hodl for long term plan that won't be curtailed by any slight emergency that should emerge in future. |

My pipo, Una good evening oo, e get one kind of thing way scammers them take they scam people this days, and I know say some of us here go done they aware of am and many people too done fall victim for those kind things them.
The thing be say, them go call you con tell you say somebody for una or a member of your family dey sick seriously and em done rush am go hospital and the doctor say if Una no deposit money first em no go start the operation.
And the way them go call you, tension self go hold you, if you no be person way get mind you fit still collapse instantly (e done happen to me and them say nah my mother but God forbid nah their mama no be my lovely mother).
Op flesh and blood didn't reveal this thread to you AFAIK this came at the right time. I had my own fair share of this scam event gratefully the food Lord salvage me from falling into it based on wisdom. Sometime in August it happened that my mom had to come spend a week in my place, I still recall that faithful day was Saturday when her phone rang and she picked, the next the caller started with a cry that her daughter has had an accident and they rushed her to UPTH and as food Samaritans they have deposited #50k out of #200k the doctor said should be deposited before they can attended to her and that the condition is critical as she's losing more blood with time and can die at any moment. Guess what! My mom screamed and started crying too. Now guess what the scammer said; that he will send my mom the account number so she can do transfer for the remaining deposit of #150k so the doctors can start treatment immediately. I immediately stepped into the phone conversation took the phone from mom spoke to the scammer that what really happened he then explained again, I told him alright we have heard and we will be on our way to the hospital but the scammer still insisted that we transfer the money before coming to the hospital so by the time we might get to the hospital the doctor would have started treating my kids sister. I said okay and ended the call. What I did was to use my own phone and dialed my sister's line her phone rang she picked greeted me and we discussed for a minute and I had to also put the phone on speaker so my mom could hear he voice and calm her mind too contrary to what the scammers had called to tell her. To cut long story short, I called back the scammers and warned them to stop such costly play that they can make someone with high BP die of shock with such devastating news, what the stupid scammer rather did was to abuse me and ended the call when he discovered I have uncovered who they really are. So I later blocked their line. My advise to people out there when you receive similar kinda calls regarding emergencies don't be too quick to react, think outside the box and do your own consultation to verify the truth and how genuine what you're told could be. Pls let beware of scammers they are real in different forms. |

Does the type of game you play at a casino or sports you bet on show an individual's level of intelligence or how smart a person is?
Blackjack, Poker, slots, roulette, baccarat, sports betting, horse racing, betting on sociopolitical events, keno, etc.
Casinos rely entirely on luck, but sports games can be timed wisely and losses can be covered. However, I think that in games like poker or blackjack, having a good understanding of the rules and strategy can certainly improve the chances of winning, but luck always plays a role. Gambling is more about personal choice and chance than a measure of intelligence. The game of gambling is basically all about luck whether casino games or sports games all are tied to the determination of luck. Intelligence is only an advancement or like an hedge the gambler possesses to limit his mistakes that could led him to stupid losses. Without intelligence a gambler can't achieve a successful strategy and may not be smart to make good use of the rules of engagement in the game to his own advantage against his opponent. Therefore, without intelligence a gambler can waste his luck of winning whereas he who's an intelligent gambler would know how to make greater use of his luck to produce optimal results. |

From what I have read about this form reply a on X, it seems like a way of encouraging and increasing more bitcoin mining in Russia as miners can be able to sell bitcoin like every other market commodity than just a currency. Don't know if I understand this wrong! |

Group stage was very unfair for Newcastle United to be honest. Considering how bad Manchester United was in that group with Galatasaray and Kopenhag, Newcastle could go even to next round if they were in that group.
It was not unfair but bad luck for them in the drawing but we cant say that Newcastle will be able to qualify if they were in Man United position. We cant put aside the fact that the overall performance of Newcastle is dropped a lot recently as proven with their previous 2 matches in EPL. They were beaten by Everton and Spurs with 3 goals difference. Basically Newcastle played well against Milan in the first half by dominating the ball possession, shots on goal etc and Milan was not even able to create 1 shot on goal in the 1st half. Surprisingly Milan were able to improve a lot in the 2nd half and create more goal attempts than Newcastle. It proves that there was something wrong with Newcastle and it may also happen if they were in Man United position. Like it or not, this is a competition, it's no pity that all clubs compete fairly and Newcastle can only show results up to here. But Newcastle failure does not need to be regretted, because if the players already have the mentality of competing in the Champions League, it means next season will definitely be a mandatory target for them to return. All teams fought hard, but Newcastle were just a little unlucky in this decisive match. I love the outcome of the game tonight and PSG did what I expected of them because it wouldn't have make sense had Paris St. German crash out of the champion this early. With the the kind of form and determination I saw in Borussia Dortmund team this season's champions league, you will easily tell that PSG will not win Dortmund in their home soil, therfore going their and getting a draw was the best option so far in securing the second spot in the group to qualify for the next round of competition.
I don't think PSG would have survived to the next stage of the UCL. They PSG were just lucky to scale through, without them in the next round the competition would have still made sense. I still feel PSG are not ready yet to win the UCL trophy going by the way they are struggling in the competition, I wouldn't be surprised they get knockout from the R16 stage. We know for ourselves how PSG in the UCL always fails to win trophies, plus this season will definitely be more difficult. The reason is that there are still many clubs that are much more worthy of being in the top 4 perhaps for the top 8 PSG can qualify (narrowly). With the club condition not being very strong, PSG is having difficulty and even the defeat against Newcastle gives a small idea that the PSG players readiness is still lacking. Last season they still had several supporting players such as Messi and Ramos, but this time there is no guarantee for PSG to go further. Just check out teams like Manchester City and Real Madrid they both won all their games as the only teams that swept all their group stage matches they are believed to be the team's that have the highest chances to win the championships league in this season. If PSG were that serious it's from their group stage performance that we will be convinced with, however I have no doubt that PSG won't be qualifying to the round 8, they have narrowly escape through to round of 16 that's doesn't mean they will be lucky to go further still. |

Hey guys! I'm wondering if you know any good Xmas bonuses?
There's a bunch out there, and honestly, it can be a bit overwhelming to navigate and filter out the best ones. I did find some pretty good promos already from this article: https://casinosblockchain.io/casino-christmas-bonuses/Why not directly admit that it is your site that created that list ? instead of telling that you did just found that article  Hi guys! We at CasinosBlockchain have created a set of five awards recognizing the best casinos at offering cryptocurrency payments and integrating blockchain technology into your player experience. Anyway , its a good share though there are many casinos in this forum that you missed to add like roobet ,Duelbits and some casino that I forgot . Maybe I should add one you forgot to add to the list which is freebitco.in They are well known in the forum for their wonderful bonuses and monthly contest (including this December) for customers which a lot of persons has been benefiting from it fairly system.

I love the outcome of the game tonight and PSG did what I expected of them because it wouldn't have make sense had Paris St. German crash out of the champion this early.

Why wouldn't it had made sense should they PSG had been eliminated from the champion's league last night. Please expand your point, because from all I know following these games from the very beginning apart from Brussia Dortmund, Newcastle was the next team in the group F that played with great seriousness and energy in their games, they had good results won their first games had it not being for injuries on their players Not really in terms of their performance, but taking everything into account, No doubt Newcastle did well but I option for PSG as one of the big name teams that most supporters would not want to see leave so early but want them to progress in the competition ,even to the final game stage. Personally, I prefer to have PSG stay in the competition because I can spare time to go watch PSG games than I will think to spare time to go watch Newcastle games. that's your opinion and It's alright, but I know there are many fans that will want to watch Newcastle play in the champion's league everyday. For someone like me I don't take PSG anymore serious than I used to as they have been really disappointing in the champions league previous competition's, you see them raise fans hope from the beginning only to get it shattered in the middle of the competition with the manner of squad they have always possessed in their team. If teams like Newcastle could come to the UCL for their first visit and do better then I think many fans will love to watch them play and with time should they revisit again next season with a better squad than they have right now Newcastle will become a team that everyone would want to watch. |

You must have a source of income if you must succeed in your holdings.
Not just having a source of income, you should have provision for emergencies. Hence there is a need to have emergency funds in case of loss of job, health issues or other unforeseen occurrences. You should always invest only what you can live without, that is why the DCA strategy will always be the best investment option. It facilitates investing at your pace and places less financial burden on the investor. Life can be so unpredictable that if we don't prepare well enough for the future against any type of emergencies that may arise we might end up going back to square one like we never had a plan or a job in the first place. There are circumstances that may hit a man that his single job that is his source of income can't handle it compared to when he's with multiple streams of income. Still fresh in my head the covid-19 pandemic that made a lot of companies to layoff some of their workers , I had a family member that was affected and that was how he fell back to his little savings (if it were bitcoin we would call it hodling). Assuming he had other sources of income flow a layoff from his company wouldn't have had such adverse effects on him that he fell back immediately to his savings. So I agree, having multiple streams is much better than just a single source of income in today's world. However, some persons that sell their bitcoin hodling in some cases may not be as a result having no steady income source or a single income source that later went bad but could be that they faced life challenges and circumstances that not even their multiple income source was capable to settle it all so they had no option but to sell their bitcoin hodling even in a loss or average price to settle their problems. Life is entirely unpredictable! |

What could be the joy in there you watching yourself losing money through others (a match you bet on). You will definitely be feeling sad and disappointed at the game because the result are going 100 miles far away from what you had expected with your prediction. The outcome of some matches at the beginning or in the middle of the game can mess around with your emotions. You probably be watching a match you on a team you predicted in your bet to win the match , and in the first half your team are losing by a 2 goals to nothing. At that moment all you feel is disappointment and unrest watching how you're losing your money at that moment nothing sounds funny again. Then in the second half your team scored 3 goals to win the game by 3:2, immediately in that process your countenance changes with joy. So to avoid all that drama I don't watch matches I bet on, having a knowledge of when the game will end for me to check the final results is what I do to avoid having a BP |

I think addiction starts after you win, even if it's just once, that's when you start gambling recklessly and you also start betting higher.
I can vividly relate with this point, I remember when I first began my gambling on online and in land sports betting I made countless numbers of losses in the very beginning due to my shallow knowledge about analyzing and gathering informations about a team before moving ahead to bet on them. As a result of not having a single winning, each time I feel like going to the bet hall to gamble what comes to mind is you want to go and lose money today again. As in, there was no other striking thought of winning aside losing it because I haven't experienced a win before as at then. So the thought deterred me from going to gamble some days. After sometime I had my first time winning an amount I didn't believe could be won by me in my first time, thereafter I had another win after a few weeks. Guess what! That thought of "you are going to lose money today again" ceased from taking a center stage, a thought of hope to win sets in because of the winning experience I have had twice then. That was how I frequent at the gambling hall almost everyday my loses increased thrice more than I had expected. There's a different mentality held inside between a gambler that had won money in gambling before and he who hasn't had that winning experience before, not even ones. |

First of all, I apologize for being late (reading my nickname it seems rather ironic) but some real life problems kept me away from the PC and made me miss my account creation tenth anniversary. Even though I am not a person who loves being the center of attention or showing off, I think this is an achievement that should be honored, that I'm proud off ( I never gave up my faith in crypto) and above all a tribute of gratitude to this place to which I owe practically all my, albeit limited, knowledge of crypto environment. I enjoyed all the 136 days, 20 hours ad 37 minutes I stayed logged in ad above all I never experencied a boring day in crypto. Thank you all for making this place my online safe haven. On a side note , just out of curiosity, I digged back to my first post here and rereading it Hi all,
my nickname says all.
I first heard about bitcoin during 2011 but didn't understand it, folded and moved on.
Last days I read about their value near to $1000 and it ruined my days because I was near to get this train but didn't.
Now I would like to enter and hope someone can address me to the first steps to do.
First of all, I guess, I need to make a wallet, right? Where/how can I do this?
Do I need a wallet for every cryptocurrency I would like to hold?
Thx in advance for your patience and cooperation
it definitely seems I wasn't too late.  I love this place! When ever I get across post of this nature I get that encouragement and reminder that there's more to do in the forum because a decade here is not a joke, having and keeping a good reputation all the while I can only imagine how many lives the informations and materials from your post's and replies saturated on different boards in the forum over the 10 years of your existence in the bitcointalk community must have enlightened in one way or the other about bitcoin/cryptocurrency and in general knowledge. Congratulations mate, if it were in those my university days, members like you would be addressed as senior colleagues by those of us far behind your milestone |

Firstly, op you should know that there's no humanity anymore in the world. Almost all humans have lost the touch of a feeling of humanity in them, we have all bind our conscience so bond that the conscience have died to repelling us from doing immoral and inhumane things and actions towards fellow human.
The things op mentioned and talked about in the post is something me as a Nigerian goes through everyday stepping out of house for to go work for our daily bread and it's so adverse that I have gotten used to the situation that It doesn't bother me anymore neither do I get surprised when I see people taking advantage of such opportunities in abusive ways.
I keep on telling people that in this country the poor are the problem of the poor even before the rich politicians that we abuse and blame for our sufferings and economical harshness we face in our society. It's only when humans stop taking advantage of situations in an inhumane and without conscience that's when live can get better as we wish it to be.
We all know and remember the issue of cash scarcity that happened early this year... Imagine how Nigerians were suffering fellow Nigerians, I don't want to even mention about POS operators you all know the rest stories.

The format and procedures to achieve great heights in this forum is conspicuously different from what I have seen in all other social platforms and forums I have admitted myself into. The equality, maturity and the system itself is a beautiful thing to be part of.
This forum wasn't built only for those that already know everything about bitcoin but mainly for the new entrant and adopters of bitcoin to come together as a community to discuss, learn, interact and share ideas between those that already knows so much about bitcoin both in theory and technical aspects with those that have no knowledge at all but are hungry to acquire the knowledge. And in achieving that goal, noise and distraction has to be filtered through rules and regulations that serve as guidelines of operation and activities engagement for the community. As simple as the rules could be they are a respecter of no one.
