On the other hand, two matches out of the five mentioned home games are losing to their opponent in the first half. The two clubs are Manchester City losing to Leipzig by 2 goals, and PSG is losing to Newcastle by a goal.

It is a surprising scoreline result in the first half because nobody expects Manchester City and PSG to first concede goals against their opponent. Anyway, there will still be a second half to play. Maybe Manchester City and PSG will try to equalize or win at the end of the match. Who knows what football tactics and corrections Pep Guardiola and the PSG coach would strategize to see to their wins before the end of 90th minutes of the match.
Pep Guardiola is one of the difficult opponent any mediocre coach wouldn't wish to face him in the UEFA Champions League competition, Guardiola and his outstanding squad will embarrass an entire team with their incredible style and winning becomes a priority for them in every major tournaments featured. Both of my favorite team that I supported to grab a winning points tonight are losing. Checking out Manchester City losing 2-0 against RB Leipzig at Etihad Stadium, who would have thought about the streak unbeaten run of Manchester City coming to an end.
Leipzig is currently playing for the group leadership in the match. It is very difficult to beat Manchester City in Manchester and they are currently leading 2-0 with Openda's show. Although it may seem difficult for the match to return at this point, it is probably not a very difficult thing for Manchester City's great team. Even though it is a small possibility, there is still a possibility that Manchester City will win.
Leipzig enjoyed the game while they can in the first half. Leading win two goals against Manchester City at Eihad. It seems the mighty goal scorer Erling Haaland was not ready yet. He had missed two beautiful chances by playing the ball above the left corner. Quite unfortunate for Leipzig the mighty Haaland got. turned up during the second half and struck the net with a beautiful goal. This gave Manchester city more confidence that they can come back to the game. At exactly the seventteth minut of the game Foden added a goal making it a draw match. Unbleivable how Manchester city has come to take the lead just at excatly the eighty seveenth minute. Seriously am suprised becasue it was like the table turned all in the favour of Manchester City. This is a good thing for Manchester City fans. Thhey have been undefeated in the UCL group stage this season. And they have decided not to let your fans down at Etihad by succesfuuly equlaizing the gaame and finally winning the game. What a fantabulous game for Manchester City.

As for PSG vs Newcastle, i am totally disappointed in PSG. It's embarrassing for Newcastle to win in Home and Away. This is not the PSG i know. Franklyn speaking, the coach has a lot to work on and the player has to improve. This was unexpected, yes i know Newcastle are good team and they perform very well in the UCL, but this is Champions league perhaps this is the first time Newcastle are coming for this competition why will PSG let them defeat them twice. However, the next game will determine their faith but it's obvious they will be leaving the UCL soon.

Fifteen minutes of play in the Champions league match. Paris Saint German against Newcastle. There has been no goal yet. The Germans are pressing really hard but Newcastle are defending better. I hope to see PSG win the game because they are playing very well. Currently they have the highest possession with about 2 shots on target. If they continue like this they would get a goal in the first half. And try to get another one during the second half. Only that way they can be sure of the three point. This is because Newcastle is an unpredictable team. During the second half they could take the lead by scoring a counter attack. PSG should not take any chance. A first half goal will be better so that they will be on the lead before the second half.

, but now they're just dull and weak when it comes to Champions League..
Is that the reason why you want to see their downfall. Instead you should be praying they come back to the way they do perform before. For what I know PSG has been facing lack of good players. During the transfer section, they sold a lot of good players and that has affected them a lot. The players currently in Paris Saint German are low quality players in my own description. It will take some time for the team to recover fully. I understand that sometimes some clubs need to sell players for them to build a new structure in the team and that is what is going on currently with PSG.

With their current position in the group table. They might be lucky enough to qualify this group stage but probably they won't qualify in the next stage if they don't increase the way they are performing. Newcastle should relax and take the premier league more serious so that they can avoid more injuries if not they will go down in position in premier league and will not have the chance to play in the UCL next season. The UCL race is for the big boys. Mancity, Arsenal, Bayern, Barca and Real Madrid.

I'm waiting for the Galatasaray-Manchester United match excitedly which is going to be played on Wednesday. Rashford and Casemiro's not being able to play would make the match much more challenging for Manchester United. On top of that Galatasaray are playing really very good in İstanbul with the support of their fans as well. Still I think that Manchester United will be able to win the match on Wednesday thanks to their experience.
With or without the presense of Rashford and Casemiro the outcome of the match will still be the same. Manchester United performance in the UCL is not appalling. I could remember their last meeting with Galatasary of which they lost with 1 goal down. It ended a 2:3 match at Old Tratford. However, we will see a different play on Wednesday where both teams will struggle to get those three points. But the way i see it, Manchester United is going to loss in the game. Galatasaray will successfully get the three points and stand a chance to qualify to the next round in the UCL.

Kudos to those who take gambling as an entertainment. Still on fun fact, if am not gambling or not doing anything serious, i do spend time in my game center where i play the 8-ball pool with some folks. Funny thing is that we do make the game more interesting by gambling. We stake money on each game whoever wins is the winner. So indirectly while am not gambling at home the alternative thing i can do for fun still involves gambling. Which means am still in the circle of gambling no matter my current choice of Entertaiment. This is because. the 8 ball pool is currently the only thing i do for fun and entertainment if am not at home.
869  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Most gamblers do not believe they can consistently make money, that's why... on: November 27, 2023, 10:32:08 PM
Personally, I firmly believe that there are people who have achieved real success in gambling. What perplexes me is why many discourage gambling as a means of making money. Instead of outright saying no, they could guide gamblers with the right strategies on how to stay disciplined, enhance skills, minimize the risk of bankruptcy, and increase the chances of winning.
I start to doubt if you are gambling. I have been gambling since February 2014 and I know a lot about gambling when it comes to profit and loss. It is good to let people know the bad side. Nobody is discouraging gambling, but newbies should know that gambling is not a way of earning income, this is where the addiction starts. As for most people, the success in gambling is not actually the money you make from it, it is what you achieved from it and a way you will be able to avoid losses with the money you can not afford to lose by not using such money to gamble.
Well spoken Oshosondy. It will be unwise to take gamble as a career or professional job that serves as a pure source of income. Gambling is meant to be an additional means of income. Such that you do not Soley depend on but rely on it for assistance in your financial life. There are days the plants go greener and some days plants wither. This is to show that even as much as a gambler have the opportunity to win a lot of times some days, he could experience a loss and perhaps during this time he was expecting the money for something or need it so urgently, but he got disappointed. However, newbies in gambling shouldn't be discouraged rather they should be encouraged to gamble responsibly. Even some gambling platforms do advice in most of their adverts. Honestly gambling has helped a lot of people to navigate from being a low-class individual to solid business owner. So, i don't see it stopping even in a thousand decades.

I understand that psychologically people are afraid to buy at lows, not understanding that this is a sale, and thinking that this is the death of Bitcoin. But he is immortal, and this is explained by the fact that he has already been buried more than 470 times.

https://crypto.news/bitcoin-has-been-buried-over-470-times-in-14-years-a-review-of-obituaries/

It can take a while to get conviction regarding buying bitcoin, buying on dips and ongoingly buying... so sure there are elements of BTC price performance (and also the performance of any markets) that attract people to buy on the way up and to sell on the way down, which is the opposite of what they should be doing... so it is not necessarily easy to get ahead of such inclinations that normal people have.

I totally agree with you, @Jayjunagee. While speculations and predictions are important qualities that can be acquired relatively quickly, what i feel is more important is conviction, a quality so many investors lack especially those new to buying Bitcoin. When I talk about conviction, I mean that a Bitcoin investor should comprehend the underlying asset to a level where they feel at ease, all the while continuing to educate themselves by considering opposing arguments. Conviction offers so many benefits to investors, including,

1. With conviction, one can listen to opposing arguments with an open mind, assessing them for possible outcomes.

2. Conviction will help empower investors to navigate economic downturns and seize opportunities to acquire more Bitcoin during bear markets. It helps to fight against blind speculation, helping majority of Bitcoin investors make informed decisions based on a deep understanding of Bitcoin.

Many thought that Everton after being in the relegation zone thought that it would add motivation to the team and they could win Man U... But the situation on the contrary affected the team negatively... By the way, bookmakers gave a sweet odds on Man U's win...


I was one of the persons that had the opinion that Everton were gonna beat Manchester United today in their English Premier League game and that's majorly because of the fact that the club was deducted of 10 points after they were found guilty of breaching financial rules in the league. But while watching their game against Manchester United this afternoon, I didn't see an Everton side that was hungry for a win. I think the mentality of the team players has been significantly affected by the points deduction because they played like they've already conceded defeat before the game kicked off.

Manchester United to the surprise of many were very impressive from the beginning to the final whistle if the game and where playing like team who really wanted all three points by all means which they got by convincingly beating Everton.
Maybe you had your hopes too high. I was expecting the game to be a very tough game for Manchester United. Maybe i though wrong. Definitely this is Manchester United biggest since the start of the season. Both the starting and finishing in the game were ok. At least  i was impressed by the performance of Gernachio, how he controlled the ball on the leg and made an early overhead kick which gave them the lead against Everton. Despite, the pattern of play Everton came it was meaningless at the end. So bad that they could not even score a goal. However, it's been quite a long time the Manchester United forward were able to work well and score goals, but we saw that today. Perhaps let it be a new start for them and continue with the spirit.

Also, am surprised by how well Aston villa has played this season. Their win against Tottenham today they really deserve it. Regardless of the two red card and some injury players that has befall Tottenham this season, Aston villa made good use of the opportunity where some other teams may jeopradize the chance.
872  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Many Bets to Know How Good Enough You Are? on: November 26, 2023, 10:06:42 PM
Since most of the betting platforms stores betting history. You could go back after so many consecutive bets and check net profit an d net loss. Compare them which is greater than the other. Then you would know how better you've become in gambling. Most times you would notice that the number of winnings is greater now than when you started betting. Unless all your gambling bets are being given to you by professionals or persons who have been in the system for long. Otherwise you would see your progress.

However, in my own perspective I would prefer if performance level should be checked based on the ability to always walk away when your ahead. This is something that most gamblers do not pay concentration on. They may be good at winning beta but lack the ability to stop whenever they have increased their money.

My most concern is that people feel that cryptocurrency is gambling but literally only those who day to day trade are gamblers. Trading is a form of gambling are have more similarities in common. Both of them depends on predictions, speculations and risk. Another aspect that the  financial news favors the trader perspective and the statistical performance if a team and news regarding players presence or absence also favors a gambler. Trading is more like gambling. It's mostly done for short term gain. There is nothing like I have high IQ, more educated or made more researched as long as you can't see the future. That I'll consider a gambling whether trading or gamble.

In general a person who feels he can manage his emotions can gamble at the same time still trade since he has thee finance, capital or equity. The only common challenges for both a gambler or a trader is capital. Sometimes they could loss their capital in a trade or a bet. So they need to start all over again unless they have another source of income.
874  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: November 26, 2023, 10:05:44 AM
Manchester City was very ambitious to win this match, Guardiola tried to direct his men to continue to pressure Liverpool, a number of attack attempts by Manchester City were unable to break down Liverpool's defense which resulted in the match ending in a draw. Losing two points meant Manchester City had to drop to second place because in another match Arsenal managed to get an additional three points at Brentford headquarters. This time Klopp managed to stop Manchester City by stealing one point at the Etihad Stadium. This result met Klopp's initial target because he realized that it was very difficult to win at Manchester City's headquarters.

It is this kind of draw that clubs like Liverpool will celebrate wholeheartedly. Because I didnt expected Liverpool to be that consistent in maintaining a draw especially when I saw that it was easy for Haaland to net the first goal in the 27th minutes of the first half. I thought that will turn out as a doomsday for Liverpool in the second half, couple that Manchester City was playing at home. I thought it will become an advantage for Manchester City going forward.

My assumptions changed the moment in the second half after Klopps substitutions which in no time Salah was able to give a great assist to  Aenold who balanced the match with an equalizer goal. This have gained Liverpool an extra one point and affected Manchester City to top the table and on the other hand given Arsenal the edge to lead the table once again with the goal they scored in yesterday's match against Brentford. Some draws are like loss in some instances. Interestingly.
You made it sound as if Liverpool is a small club. Perhaps you forget that at all seasons Liverpool are very competitive for the EPL title. Liverpool is a very good team, performing very well this season and I have predicted that Mancity will not see the league title this season. It would be Liverpool or Arsenal. I have seen how small and big teams play in this season and I know it would be difficult for Mancity. A team like Liverpool that could perform very well even if they have two men down. Such a team is qualified to win the title. So I am not surprised at the 1:1 draw between Liverpool and Mancity. They shared the point which is good instead of them loosing. This shows they are both ready for the competition.
875  Economy / Speculation / High transaction fees affects those who DCA on: November 26, 2023, 01:28:16 AM
The current Bitcoin fees wouldn't have mattered to me because I am not selling, but the fees do matter because I DCA, and I don't want to leave my coins in the centralized exchange. This month, I have spent roughly $5 to $10 in transaction fees when I DCA every week. It may seem small, but in my country, it's enough to cover my feeding expenses for a month cumulatively.

I discussed this issue with my friend, and he suggested I use an exchange that utilizes the Lightning Network. According to him, this would help me get off with no fees any day. While I'm considering this alternative, another option is to wait for a month or two, then use the amount we kept for weekly DCA, hold it for a month or two, and lump sum. This way, i would incur just a one time fee. What are your thoughts on this? I feel like I may use the money kept for DCA for other expenses.

It’s all over for Chelsea as Newcastle has scored yet another goal to increase the scoreline and solidify their lead and chances of having a win in this game. Gordon for Newcastle scored the 4th goal almost effortlessly. The game is pretty much over as there is no coming back from this for Chelsea. And being a man down doesn’t help their chances.
Newcastle has been dominant in this second half and has controlled the game unlike the first half. I thought Chelsea would have a fighting chance and it briefly looked like they did in the first half of the game.
Good game and a likely win for Newcastle.
5 extra minutes. Enough time for Chelsea to try and equalize? Or for Newcastle to add to the scoreline.
There is no hope for Chelsea now as the game will end in a 4:1. Am not surprised that Newcastle has dealt with Chelsea today  There were a lot of conversations previously that Newcastle has a lot of injury players and that Chelsea will use that as an advantage to win Newcastle. But then I was against that statement. Newcastle may not perform well in the UCL but in the EPL I believe them to perform incredible regardless of the casualties before them. By January we will see a different game entirely from Newcastle after they have signed new players. I am certain that they will successfully come out top 5 in the EPL so that they can have another chance in the UCL next season.
879  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slot games are a waste of time and money (most of the time) on: November 25, 2023, 08:56:45 AM
Yeah, I personally feel that slot games are a complete waste of time and money most of the time, I got this bonus from btcgosu's partnership with BetFury which awarded me a 77 free spins.

Bonus is still available for anyone to claim on https://www.btcgosu.com/blog/news/unleash-the-black-friday-magic-get-77-free-spins-with-code-gosu77-at-betfury/

I played slot game with the free spin and ended up with a total win of $16, but also hammered with a wager requirement of about $750 before I did be able to withdraw.

what a great marketing technique for casino owner who give 77 free spins but can't withdraw funds because there are requirement for betting that big  😂 your fate is really unfortunate because you can't collect your winnings that you have obtained with the free spins, but you are lucky because you didn't make a deposit to continue playing the slot in order to fulfill the withdrawal requirements that must be fulfilled.

Just think of this as entertainment for you because when else can you use the free spins without having to sacrifice a lot of your finances and it does seems like a waste of time but you only use the money you get from your winnings and don't use your personal money but if you make a deposit To continue chasing victory, you will increasingly waste your time and money in uncertain amount.
I think there is some sort of logic behind casino slot machines. Not all of them are considered to be big scams for taking people's money. Sometimes they do pay out, and sometimes there is a loss. I'm having a thought that they are programmed to give 70% back to the house and 30% to a few lucky winners. This is why slots are called gambling. The winning is not certain, but you bet to win by chance.

There is only one casino game that I feel the winning probability is equal to the losing chances, which is blackjack. If a skilled player or someone who understands the game very well, they could win more than they lose, thereby giving them some compounding winning interest at the end of the day.

However, slot machines are designed and programmed to make you addictive. Even when you keep losing you still wants to play because of how you interact with the machine, the whole flash light thing is very attractive.
880  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: VAR Rules and gambling on: November 24, 2023, 10:22:09 PM
So just to be clear, the final result of the match was 2 - 1, and you betting on a draw would have won if it was 2 - 2.

Why are you expecting the VAR decision to not count though?
Bets are settled based on the final score. And if the league sets its final score based on VAR decisions, then there's little the bookie can do.
You can't realistically expect a bookie to not settle a bet at all just because VAR was involved. That would make a lot of other bettors unhappy.
You're right. I am assuming the match was already close to the end when he placed the bet and if so, the fact that the odds were 2.05 is enough reason to be suspicious of the situation of the game, another thing is live games are more volatile and more likely to go wrong because one is predicting a match based in the current situation which can change any time, and some matches can receive up to and sometimes more than 10mins of added time which is enough time for things to change in the game, unlike betting pregame which one is more likely to predict correctly because one can analyze based on current forms, injury forms and previous head2head meetings.
Staking such a huge amount is not advisable for live games, but can be beneficial in basketball games and not in football games. The booky knows this and expects you to be informed on the disadvantages of VAR in staking live games so they would not admit to any fault or void the game due to that.
