Finally, we have four teams remain in 14th UCL. The semi-finals has been scheduled as below:

Paris Saint-Germain vs Manchester City
Real Madrid vs Chelsea

Final Real Madrid vs Paris Saint-Germain and I'm expecting the 14th UEFA Champions League loaded in for PSG, change my mind.

It's true that the Champions League competition is getting more and more interesting, because only 4 teams are left at this time. And I am very happy
that the team that qualifies for the semi-finals is indeed very worthy and has the same opportunity to become champions. From the two matches
in the semi-finals of the Champions League, I am very enthusiastic about the PSG vs Manchester City match. Because in addition to having lots of
quality players, both of them also have very healthy finances. For me PSG vs Manchester City is like a final game, but I believe Manchester City can
beat PSG with Guardiola's strategic abilities. I can't wait for the PSG vs Manchester City match.

It was interesting to see that the Borussia Dortmund vs Manchester City game ended with the same result as the first leg.

In the other game of the night, I was expecting to see goals, but everything was zero.

I was also quite surprised that the Dortmund vs Manchester City match ended with the same score as the first leg. But my prediction is
correct for Manchester City to finally qualify for the semi-finals, even though Dortmund has given their best. Dortmund scored a goal first,
but unfortunately Manchester City managed to score 2 goals in the second half. And make Dortmund have to get out of the Champions League.
For the Liverpool vs Real Madrid match, it was disappointing that not a single goal was created. Because Real Madrid looks more focused
on defending, because they have won on aggregate. But I do predict that Real Madrid will qualify, but did not think that the match ended
in a draw in this second leg. Congratulations to Chelsea, PSG, Manchester City and Real Madrid who made it to the semi-finals.

I think that Liverpool can win tonight, but I'm not sure that it will be enough to get through. They would need 2:0 win - LFC are able to score 2 goals. But it will be extremely difficult not to let Real to score. Real goal will make their task even more difficult.
Borussia - City will be very interesting. It's not clear whether Hummels and Reus will play because of injuries - it will be big factor, they are very important players. But even if they will play, I expect City to win.

Liverpool is playing very inconsistently, so it is very difficult to predict Liverpool's performance. But depending on the player Liverpool will play as well,
if they return to play Phillips and Kabak it will be very easy for Madrid to score goals like in the first leg. I prefer Fabinho to play as a defender to
replace Phillips, because he must have more experience in blocking Madrid players attacks. If Liverpool play more discipline in defense, and play football
that relies on effectiveness. There is still a possibility that Liverpool will beat Madrid,  the problem is that it is very difficult to score two goals without
being conceded by a Madrid player. For the Dortmund vs Manchester City match, I am optimistic that Manchester City can beat Dortmund easily.

With the pandemic situation not over yet, it seems like many people have more free time. Because now in my country the school cannot start
activities and there are also many workers who have to work at home. So many people start to have a lot of free time, therefore this becomes
an opportunity to carry out our respective hobbies. I myself have a hobby of raising animals, so I spend a lot of my free time interacting with pets.

Congratulation to both; PSG and Chelsea are going to the next rounds. I'm disappointed watching Porto a bit late heating up the machines at end of time. However, I applaud the team still fighting until the end, Chelsea is enough deserving to get the achievement as a semifinalist this year.

I hope Liverpool and City can easily beating real Madrid and Dortmund to create possibly all the England final.

Indeed, PSG and Chelsea qualify for the semi-finals, although I am very disappointed that my prediction was wrong that Bayern would qualify
for the semifinals. But it is admitted that Lewandowski's not playing is one of the strong reasons Bayern failed to qualify for the next round of
the Champions League. For Porto it was a goal that was created too late, so Porto's victory was in vain because they lost on aggregate.
After all, it is Chelsea who are more worthy to qualify for the semifinals. Then for Manchester City I believe it will be easy to beat Dortmund,
especially when Man City lost in the Premier League they kept some of their main players. In order to be able to play full team when dealing
with Dortmund. For Liverpool, I'm not sure they can beat Madrid, moreover, Real Madrid not only won on aggregate but Real Madrid players
are on fire, after successfully beating Barcelona in La Liga.

Bitcoin new ATH, I believe it would need two more GREEN daily closes, then it would be an easy path surging to $80,000, then to 6 digits. We will NEVER see Bitcoin trade below $60,000 again. Go ahead, laugh. Cool

I'm also quite surprised Bitcoin can go up to the new ATH at $ 62K so fast, like you said I am also optimistic that it will be easy for Bitcoin to go to
a price of $ 80k. And if the $ 80k price is successfully achieved, it is not impossible that the $ 100k target that some people have predicted will
come true. But it's too early to mention we don't see a price below $ 60k again this year, I predict Bitcoin may drop below $ 50k. Because the increase
was too fast and drastic, but it won't drop below $ 40k this year.

It is indeed beneficial for PSG with the return of Marco Verratti, but still what PSG will face is Bayern, which is Europa's best club. Moreover,
Bayern have a better experience in the Champions League competition than PSG. So it is only natural that many people prefer Bayern who
will qualify for the next round. I appreciate that you chose PSG over Bayern, but I don't agree with you. I am still optimistic that Bayern can
still qualify for the semi-finals.
Considering the availability of both teams players, I can say Paris saint-Germain is the most favorite to qualify to the next round. Marco and Florenzi missed the first leg in Munich after testing positive for COVID-19, but the duo have received the all-clear and are back in training ahead of the tie with Bayern Munich, while Bayern main man Robert is still out injured.

Bayern has indeed lost quite a lot of its main players, not only Lewandowski who cannot play. There are 4 other main players who cannot play such as
Costa, Gnabry, Sule and Tolisso. Meanwhile, PSG is likely to be strengthened by Florenzi and Verratti, who as you mentioned. Indeed, if you compare
the line-up of PSG players it looks more prepared. Therefore, I am not surprised that you prefer PSG, who are favorites to qualify for the next round,
but I did not change my decision by still choosing Bayern who will qualify for the next round.
548  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread on: April 13, 2021, 06:12:52 AM
I don't know man, almost everyone thinks that Bayern will win,
This time PSG will probably have his best midfielder back in the game, Verrati was out for COVID in 1st leg.
I think this year PSG will win and we will have the semifinal of sheiks PSG vs CITY.

If your projects want immediate interest, many investors must list on popular exchanges, such as Binance, Coinbase, Bittrex and KuCoin. But I don't
know the requirements to be listed on popular exchanges, it seems like it costs a lot to be listed on popular exchanges. Or for the first time listing,
I can suggest listing on Gate.io which has a pretty good score on the coinmarketcap site. And I believe getting listed on Gate.io will not be as difficult
as listing on popular exchanges.

It is true that trading is a occupation and we can rely on it as a source of income to live. But not everyone can do it, I even read articles on
the internet that the percentage of people who experience losses when trading is greater than those who get profits. This happens because
to be successful traders must have experience and the ability to analyze the market. If we really want to make trading a occupation we must
first learn about all kinds of trading.

Don't be too serious about exhibition fight, because this is limited to providing entertainment and there is no fighting over the title here.
So there really can't be any arrangement between them, they just want to entertain their supporters in a pandemic situation like now.
Then regarding the Pacquiao vs Crawford fight, there has indeed been no official announcement that it will happen, but like you said a lot of
the media reported the fight would be on June 5th, There is a possibility that the determination of this fight will not be made public.
Hopefully this battle can be carried out and there will be no postponement. Anyone will definitely enjoy official fights more than exhibition,
because official fights are usually the two boxers put out their best. So it's more exciting to watch.
As a fan we just have to enjoy it, but as a gambler we cannot be serious with it because all we want is just to win and that's our job to analyze which is the better fighter and put our bet on that figher. It's an exhibition fight, so it's quite hard to analyze as they will not be as aggressive as they were when they are still professional, so their previous fights could not be so significant here as the basis to determine the outcome of the fight.

This is the reason I rarely bet on exhibition matches, because like you said boxers won't fight all out. So sometimes it is more difficult to predict
the outcome of exhibition fights, indeed exhibition fights are better used as entertainment. Or it could be an exhibition fight just to see a fight that is
not possible to be held in a professional boxing competition.

Don't be too serious about exhibition fight, because this is limited to providing entertainment and there is no fighting over the title here.
So there really can't be any arrangement between them, they just want to entertain their supporters in a pandemic situation like now.
Lol it does not totally for entertaining their Fans but this is because of the trending in which since last year there are couple of Popular but Old boxer that comes to ring for this so called Exhibition game but the truth is they already has no career and just taking the advantage of people is bored because of pandemic so they will earn popularity again at the same time with Big amount of Money.

I'm not sure if this will come to reality , Its been many months now passed but there is no even a sign of them going in a fight.

Maybe what you say is true, most of the exhibition fights that are held now are due to trending or indeed to make a lot of money. Whatever the reason,
we, as fans, were really entertained by the exhibition's battles. Because it's so bored just staying at home because the pandemic hasn't ended yet,
so if we can watch the exhibition fight at least it can provide entertainment. Although the battle was not certain to happen, because it was true that
there had been no news again regarding the fight. But I still believe and hope that the fight will come true.
552  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Many people think that Bitcoin is not a currency with practical uses on: April 09, 2021, 01:24:31 AM
I don't blame anyone for saying that Bitcoin is impractical as a currency, because it is like that. Not all countries legalize Bitcoin as payment,
not to mention finding merchants that accept Bitcoin payments is not easy. Using Bitcoin for payments must understand technology, and there
are many more reasons why Bitcoin is not practically used as a currency. I myself prefer to use Bitcoin as an asset rather than having to use it
as payment.
553  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: When is this bull run going to be over? on: April 09, 2021, 12:53:45 AM
As long as there is still a lot of positive news emerging and also before the Bitcoin price experiences a deep correction,  there is no need to worry
about the bull run going to be over. I am still optimistic that the bull run will continue, so I have no plans to sell my Bitcoin at the moment.
Indeed I cannot know the future, because I am not a fortune teller. But I can predict from Bitcoin price movements in the market and also from
the many articles I have read. And I haven't found anything that will end the bull run, so I conclude that the bull run will not end any time soon.
554  Economy / Speculation / Re: How low could the next bear market move bitcoin? on: April 08, 2021, 11:23:37 PM
I believe Bitcoin will still be bullish for the next few months, because the Bitcoin price could go up even higher. Especially seeing the price of
Bitcoin very stable in March with never correcting below the price of $ 50k, this proves that many holders are indeed investing in Bitcoin for
the long term. So I also have no intention of selling my Bitcoin in the near future. Moreover, a lot of good news about Bitcoin has sprung up
this month, making me optimistic that Bitcoin will return to the ATH price of $ 61k in the near future.
555  Economy / Speculation / Re: Next big news? on: April 08, 2021, 11:12:37 PM
There is no need to rush to expect the price of Bitcoin to rise, I believe the performance of Bitcoin is very good this year. It will make some large
companies interested in investing in Bitcoin, so sooner or later good news will come. Who knows in the next few weeks there will be a big company
that will decide to invest in Bitcoin, now my advice is we just HODL the Bitcoin that we have. Because if we see the Bitcoin market is still on
the right track, so sooner or later the price can go up even higher. Investing in Bitcoin does require patience.

In any country it seems that no parent wants their child to become addicted to gambling, then the parents will be tough if they find their child
gambling. I am like you have parents who cannot be discussed with all things related to gambling, if until I dare to ask about gambling. I will have
the same fate as you, so I can't discuss all things about gambling with my parents. This is a lesson for all of us that being a parent should not be
a distance from their child. It means being a good parent, you have to explain everything to your child, including the game of gambling. So that
our children do not get this information from other people, it may be that the information provided by others is misleading.
Well, it's quite a well-known fact(maybe? Don't have any source tbh, but it is more effective than carrot and stick imo) that violence is by far the easiest way to discipline someone, especially children. Some parents just look at the short term effects of physical discipline hence they don't really look at the long-term effects of what their actions would result in (or they're just that much of a bastards who don't care about their children).

Well imho, I'd suppose the parents just want to avoid such discussions to avoid influencing you negatively. Their methods may not be the best, but I think they want the best. Not that I can say it for myself, you have your own opinion tbh so might want to try to confront them instead of bearing it all to yourself.

In fact some parents find it effective with physical violence that will make children become disciplined. Even though sometimes this will only
traumatize children to discuss with their parents. All parents must have different methods of educating their children, whatever it is they only
want the best for their children. If I were a parent, I would prefer non-violent methods, because I think everything can be resolved without
physical violence. Even if we want to make children don't want to repeat their mistakes, it can be a little harsh by punishing them for not
watching TV or playing games. There are actually many ways to educate children to be disciplined without having to commit physical violence.
557  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: You Think Bitcoin Save Your Economy on: April 08, 2021, 03:50:19 AM
For me Bitcoin has really helped save my economy in a pandemic like now. Because by trading Bitcoin I can get income to meet my daily needs.
Especially now that it is very difficult to find work, and it is also very risky if we have to work outside the home. But Bitcoin gave me a solution,
I can get money by trading Bitcoin and I don't have to leave the house to make money. I'm sure a lot of people are helped the economy after
getting to know Bitcoin.
558  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What age bracket is perfect for gambling on: April 08, 2021, 03:42:26 AM
It really depends on the kind of education that you receive, I remember that my father taught me about gambling games at an early age, he did it not because he wanted me to gamble but it was a lesson on probabilities, that is how I learned very early on that gambling as a way to make money was simply not going to happen for almost anyone because the probabilities are on the long term against you.
You have a really progressive parents then, I mean if I was to ask my parents about that thing, I would probably get myself beaten to a pulp. To me though, I would say that gambling should be allowed on the age where the individual can decide for themselves and have the ability to accept responsibility, it will be difficult to determine by age since people mature differently, maybe sticking to 18 will be enough.

In any country it seems that no parent wants their child to become addicted to gambling, then the parents will be tough if they find their child
gambling. I am like you have parents who cannot be discussed with all things related to gambling, if until I dare to ask about gambling. I will have

559  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 5 mistakes to avoid when investing in Crypto on: April 08, 2021, 01:33:37 AM
I totally agree with all the mistakes mentioned by the opening post which are very many made by investors or traders. Because most people
underestimate when they first jump into the world of crypto. They think that making profit on cryptocurrency is enough to buy it at a low price
and sell it at a high price. Even though the reality is not like that, investing or trading in the crypto world is very complicated in my opinion.
Learning is required before deciding to use the money we have to buy the coins we want. There are many rules that must be understood by traders
or investors in order to avoid losses, and can generate large profits. Never be lazy to learn all things about the crypto world.
560  Economy / Economics / Re: Are "Work Ethics" & "American Dream" a way to keep people working hard? on: April 08, 2021, 01:23:23 AM
We're all living in different situations. Some people wouldn't survive life without working but that doesn't mean that they're on the wrong path. Some people just don't have a choice but it's about working wise not working hard that could make life better. America has strong government support especially to their poor citizens, unlike other countries that the government is just taking advantage of the poorest of the poor's situation.

I agree every country has different situations and also different policies, in some countries it is very difficult to find decent paying work.
I agree that America has a pretty good government in terms of its hiring system, compared to the country where I live. In America more
people bribe to get into good universities, such as the Rick Singer case, which is quite large regarding the bribery case to get into a favorite
university. But in my country people pay more bribes to be able to work. Therefore, every country has different situations and problems.
In the end, the victims were poor people again.
