181  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What contributes to a casual gambler becoming an addicted gambler? on: February 25, 2024, 02:39:33 PM
I found out another reason and this time it is about a new gambler. They come into the gambling industry thinking that they can make money and settle their existing debt. This is a myth as gambling can result in more debt if not done properly, I mean a newbie gambling without knowing how to operate a game can be a disaster for. I have experienced it and I did write about it here - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5485379.0
If there are people who think they can make money from gambling and pay off their debts, they are losing without realizing it because gambling will not allow them to make a lot of money. They could make money but in small amounts, which is still smaller than the losses they experience. They should realize this immediately, and you can also always advise them to pay off their debts immediately and not to take on any more debts if the previous debts have not been paid off. That will only burden them more, so they will have difficulty paying off their debts.
Why not? Each gambler must have a time that they are lucky but we only don't know it and it may come later, so we could lose a lot first or not as it may come too early. Me and others, I know are successful already to pay our debts after winning in gambling but we are not advising it though.

Yes, it was only small amounts are the ones that will usually give to us by our games and when we play we should erase our previous losses, so that we can appreciate even the small winnings we get and it won't let us to be greedy and end up as a loser instead. Loaning money is addicting and people can make another loan to pay the other, no wonder why many of us are stuck on this problem.

If I had to bet on just one team, I'd bet on Liverpool as favorites
Even if, as in your example, one of the 3 teams (Liverpool, Leverkusen and Milan) meet in the quarter-finals
But it's not absolute favoritism on the part of the English team, at least in my opinion. Even though Xavi Alonso has less experience as a coach, he has plenty as a player and that could help

To me the classification will be like that:
Classified in bold

Sparta Prague v Liverpool
Marseille v Villarreal
Roma v Brighton
Benfica v Rangers
Freiburg v West Ham
Sporting v Atalanta
AC Milan v Slavia Prague
Qarabag v Leverkusen
These are good predictions with I have to be agreed with six without any doubt but here I am feeling two matches are going to be not easy because these teams are on level and also having good current performance level like Sporting vs Atlanta both are on good level and most chances we will have this match going to be ended on penalties because Atlanta is also on good run and their current performance level is also at the top.

Marseille vs Villarreal is also going to be tough match here I am favouring Marseille because as they perform against Ukrainian side with this level of performance they can beat Villarreal as well which is currently in bad shape and their performance level in La Liga is not good Marseille is also having problems but their fightback against Shakhtar was impressive which give them good advantage.

Greed in trading is a trader's downfall - that is the reality of many traders' experience. Professional and experienced traders may not trade all the time - they take advantage of the momentum and make the expected profits. There are good opportunities in the market if traders can analyze it well – but of course with established risk considerations.

Expecting consistent profits in trading is difficult - but when traders can capitalize on momentum, they can accumulate profits within a day. Of course this is easy to say, but much more difficult to implement.
That's the point, and a lot of new traders don't understand this thing. They might gain all the knowledge but they don't understand that making many trades doesn't always mean getting more profit, and a trader needs to make only the trades that they are confident about and know they can take some profit out from it, otherwise, you will just waste some of your money because even if you have a stop-loss at the place, you lose money if it's triggered.

So, it's important to only make a limited number of trades so that you don't risk losing money unnecessarily. Choose your cryptocurrencies wisely and place your orders after thoroughly analysing the market and the upcoming opportunities. If you lack knowledge, gain that first as it's important for a trader.
184  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If a addict lives within, which method would you choose to help them on: February 24, 2024, 02:26:54 PM
Making someone quit? Thats not the solution, its a recipe for disaster. We understand addiction's mechanism, right? The why, not the gambling, matters. You believe pulling them away from the tables helps, but you're actually driving them deeper into the abyss. They need to realize the repercussions of their behavior, but they also need a hand to draw them back, not a push down the rabbit hole.

Show them what they're missing and sacrificing. Relationships, health, future. This is about life choices, not gambling. One can lead a horse to water, but not make it drink. The same applies. Tools, help, and alternatives are available, but true change? From within. They must want it and understand the stakes. You should focus on that, pal.
That's probably the better way to solve such a problem because forcing isn't a solution as the gambler might stop gambling in front of the people who are forcing him to stop gambling but that wouldn't make them leave it and he will keep doing it on the back when there is no one around because, of course, you can't isolate them and give them no basic facilities at all as that isn't a way to deal with the situation.

So, people around the person who is addicted to gambling should handle the situation with wisdom and calmness instead of getting angry, scolding the addict, and forcing them to stop gambling because that isn't going to work but it will make the matter worse.

The victory over Mainz 2-1 make Xabi Alonso success break out new German record for consecutive until 33 matches all competition without losses, its great achievement for less experience manager such as Alonso only need two season to break out Bayern Munich record have existing for longer time. The additional three points make Bayern Leverkusen closer to getting the Bundesliga title this season remaining 11 points left from Bayern Munich who have tough match this week against RB Leipzig.

Regarding with 11 points left, seems Bayern Leverkusen only need 8 winning matches left for winning the Bundesliga tittle in this season if Bayern Munich not losses points yet. Xabi Alonso have more closer forward for winning Bundesliga trophy than Bayern Munich and they have take three points on every matches left.
Without any doubt a historic season for the Bayer Leverkusen as they are achieving new records and success with this win now their difference of points is 11, and they are going to have their first title after long time which could be impressive by Xabi Alonso and his players which done good job throughout season in all events and now having good dividend of this as well no one was expecting Bayer Leverkusen will be able to have these wins and trophy as well now they are close to title and with this UEFA Europa League is also coming into their way even fight will be tough, but they can achieve this as well now after these wins we can hope they will keep their depth and also able to have better results in coming season as well because recently we have few teams after winning title fail to keep things on their level and fall down badly in next season.

Before the first leg of the UEFA Champions League round of 16 tie between Napoli and Barcelona was played, I was of the opinion that Napoli were gonna eliminate Barcelona from the competition and qualify to play in the quarter finals but because they failed to beat Barcelona in the first leg of the tie at the Diego Armando Maradona stadium in Naples, winning the tie at Camp Nou I think will be very difficult for the Italian champions.

Barcelona who won the Spanish La Liga title last season without doubt have not been consistent this season nor have they been convincing with their performances but let's also not forget that Napoli who won the Italian Serie A title last season have been managed by three different managers already this season and that's because of the fact that they've also been very inconsistent in all competitions they're involved in this season. So because of the how well Barcelona plays when they're playing any home game in the UEFA Champions League, I think they'll beat Napoli when they meet for the second leg of the tie
Yeah, but you also need to understand that while we are having Champions League games things are never been easy for any team with Barcelona is surely having problems into their home games which can give good benefit to Napoli, and they are still having good chance for the win in Barcelona because in last few games they are conceding too many goals and their defense is also not giving them results which are needed and this could be surely not easy game for the both teams so for me Napoli still having chance for the qualification.

In last three home games they already conceded 8 goals which are surely not as their past quality currently they are facing too many issues which are surely not good for them even Napoli is also struggling, but things are surely at same level for the both teams for qualifying into next round.

Actually, I'm a little disappointed to see the bad things that have happened to Bayern Munich at the moment, which forced Tuchel to leave Bayern Munich, even though Tuchel was once successful with Munich, but I still have confidence that Munich will still be successful in getting the title this season, even though it seems impossible, football surprises always happen. can happen at any time.
If the best thing is to replace the coach, maybe choosing Xavi would be a good choice, but I'm not sure if Xavi will accept the offer because he seems to prefer to stay at the Spanish club.
Anyone here knows that no matter how strong a club is, it will definitely collapse in the end, like what Bayern Munich is currently experiencing, just waiting for Leverkusen to make a mistake.
In this season, we have bad performance from the Bayern Munich even they were much better and stronger after the arrival of Harry Kane but sadly still Thomas Tuchal fail to achieved his targets so just because of this both parties manage to end this season and have parts away which is good by Bayern Munich management specially after lost against Lazio things were going not good even they still have chance in Champions League.

But their chances are completely dead in Bundesliga because now 8 points difference with 12 matches remaining is surely not easy to achieve with their performance is also not good, and Bayer Leverkusen is undefeated, and they are giving their best which is also impressive from them under Xabi Alonso.
188  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: February 23, 2024, 10:30:01 AM
Liverpool and Manchester city are the two major contenders for the title race for me at this point, arsenal had a shot on the title but they couldn't maintain the top spot for too long, same thing they did last season and Manchester city came from behind and snatched it from them, however I think they haven't learnt their lesson yet, because if they inventually come back at the top, they will eventually drop once again at the crucial time, So for me, arsenal should me rolled out because of their inconsistency.

Manchester united are on the 6th position on the league table, behind Aston villa and Tottenham Hotspur, it won't be an easy task for united to get through these two clubs and occupy that number 4 spot, as both teams have been impressive lately.
I disagree with you; Arsenal is fully part of the Premier League title race this season. Liverpool is leading Arsenal with five points, and Arsenal has a game at hand against Newcastle United on Saturday. And if Arsenal wins against Newcastle United, Liverpool will be leading Arsenal by just two points, which makes Arsenal a contender for the Premier League title this season.
Peoples are giving their views without understanding ground realities as currently we are having three teams in title race with just 2 points are having difference tomorrow we are going to have Bournemouth vs Manchester City and Arsenal vs Newcastle United most chances both teams will win and have 59 and 58 respective points which are surely not enough for claiming title race for any team just one poor performance can bring any team down like we have for the Manchester City which lost their points against Chelsea so right now nothing is predictable, and all teams are in race even injuries are happening, but these are having enough suitable replacements but if their reserve players fail to deliver then surely things can go out of the way for them but right now all is on for the title race between these three teams Arsenal bring back themselves strongly in 2024 which is impressive.
189  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you won a bet with your last cash? on: February 22, 2024, 06:21:22 PM
Most of us probably lose patience with our last cash; that's why we become too aggressive. This happens to most of us when we are chasing our losses. For example, suppose you have $1000 for a gambling session. When you are down to your last $100, you won't feel inspired because you need to win ten times your $100 to get back to your bankroll level. That's why it's really important to have discipline in gambling to prevent this from happening.
Yes, and what happened with OP doesn't happen with everyone because most people would just lose whatever money is left of their bankroll since as you said they become aggressive when they see they have already lost most of their initial bankroll and now it's either a do or die situation so they try to either win their money back with aggressive betting or lose the remaining balance as well and mostly, it ends up with the gambler having nothing left.

So it's better to be moderate from the beginning, and no matter how bad your luck is at a certain time, you should stop when you have already lost more than 30% of your initial bankroll and come back later because if you have lost 30%, you are most likely going to lose it all unless you become lucky all of a sudden like OP which doesn't generally happen.

Liverpool's players showed great dominance in the home match. The bond between Liverpool's players is strong this season. This is the reason why the team has managed to occupy the top spot in the table. Liverpool's main striker Mohamed Salah was absent from the squad. Still, Liverpool's players were confident. They were able to make 29 shots in total. Luton Town's players could not put up much resistance. While Liverpool trailed 1-0 at the end of the first half, we only saw Liverpool dominate in the second half. Liverpool players scored 4 goals in a row. They got a fantastic 4-1 win. The top spot in the table is still occupied by Liverpool.
Honestly it was obviously a better game than what City had, because City dominated the whole game and barely won 1-0, so that is definitely different and I agree with that. But at the same time we could say that we are not going to really end up with easy choices, it is not the same thing and should change. Liverpool is barely the leader now, and with City and/or Arsenal winning their game as well, they should be able to do well enough.

I think it is quite obvious that we are going to end up with a different result without a doubt. Liverpool should be happy, it's always better to win than lose, but at the same time it is not a big deal, they won so many games, it's Luton Town, they were expected to win this game anyway, wasn't a shock.
191  Economy / Speculation / Re: A new ATH before halving. Is it possible? on: February 22, 2024, 10:02:33 AM
Now, my question is: is it a possibility that this upcoming halving is unique in that a new ATH is reached before it? We still have a lot of time left. With the demand beating the supply, $69,000 is not far away from the current price.
We saw the halving before where when the halving occurs a new ATH will be seen, as you mentioned yesterday's ATH $69,000, which has happened, I believe the ATH this time could reach $80k, that's a reasonable speculation for me, for $100k not halving this time, maybe in the future.

If you look at it, all crypto users around the world are curious about the halving this time, considering that for Bitcoin there are no real signs of certainty yet, but I remain optimistic that this time the new ATH halving will occur, we just have to wait for the day and date when Bitcoin will make all crypto users amazed.
That was during or after it but what he was asking here is before the event comes. Halving was rumoured to occur in April so we still have 1 month or more left and I think that's still a lot to see a ground-breaking changes in the price of BTC. $80k was still an impressive ATH and what is more impressive is if it will be reached before the halving time but how much more after that?

I think $100k is truly possible. We should not limit our selves for the possibilities of BTC especially if we are also investing on it. You guys don't want a nice profit? You want it right? So, be like me and others who are too optimistic. If there are curious here, they are only the new users, not the experienced one.
192  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: February 22, 2024, 09:20:51 AM
I think he realises that he is unlikely to win any trophy at MU and will probably try to win a trophy at Bayern first before thinking about a return to the EPL. Yes, he probably likes that record and wants to update it, but if he doesn't win any serious trophies, how can he consider himself a really serious top level player? I think that's a rhetorical question for every player
Indeed. He will have no chance to win any trophy with Man United. Man United never improved their performance, they only become a middle class team in each season. If Harry Kane wants to win a trophy, it is better to stay with Bayern Munich. Harry Kane still has a chance to win a trophy in the next season. I'm not sure Leverkusen will be as strong as this season if Xabi Alonso leaves Leverkusen. The chance to win a trophy with Bayern Munich will be higher for the next season. So why Harry Kane needs to return to EPL? I think he never considers to return to EPL in the near future.
I agree, now it's time for Harry Kane to stay at Bayern Munich and win trophies just one bad season not mean he leaves and now try some other place Bayern Munich is one of the best club which have great potential to win trophies even their current season is not good, but things can take good change, and they could be at their best in coming season it is just matter of time and if he is considering Manchester United then surely it's going to be not wise decision because Manchester United is surely now not good club for the winning trophies they also need overhaul which bring things back to normal, and they are surely going to have not good time in near future as well for the winning of trophies with this performance and consistency which is bringing them to the sixth spot in Premier League and early exit from the Champions League.

It must be really devastating for PSG chairman to hear about Mbappe's departure this summer.  Sad  But I think this is the best thing to do for Mbappe.

He has made significant level of contributions to his team so far. But they are still unable to win the Champions League title even for once. This isn't good for Mbappe's career at all. Maybe he is playing very impressively individually. But he needs bigger achievements to carry his career to a much higher level. He can really achieve his biggest goals with Real Madrid. They are already the most dominant team in the Champions League history.
Yes of course, Nasser Al-Khelaifi will be very emotional to get the news because after all, Nasser Al-Khelaifi has given the best for Mbappe while playing at PSG. But yes, as a talented young player like Mbappe of course, Mbappe wants many achievements and trophies to be obtained because yes, if Mbappe only stays at PSG, then the trophies obtained are only limited about Ligue 1. For example, like Haaland who managed to get many different trophies becasue he succeeded with Manchester City in his first season. Therefore, Mbappe also deserves to get many trophy with Real Madrid later, and I am sure Mbappe will remain brilliant and impressive at Real Madrid.
In this world while we are having peoples fighting hard for the more money and better things in career emotions are having nothing to do for them and same happening in Kylian Mbappé case he wants to have more than his current level which is not possible for him after staying into Ligue 1 because here quality and performance are not reliable, and they are on decline which is another problem so most chances things will be gone as now we are watching this all he is going to leave and PSG have to bring his replacement as well which could be good for them because with this now they will be able to bring better things in this club and surely this could be start of new era under Luiz Enrique as well.

Presence of Mbappé is surely having not good impact of them in last few years so now they need to settle this and having change which will be surely positive for them and their future as well because with this now they will be having few good players which will work with better depth and better results.

I saw this video on social media just recently wherein a famous local influencer here in my country loses more than $4,000 dollars in just 2 minutes.

Even with a rich guy gambling, still has this regret he just made, so how much more for an average guy to take the risk of spending his hard earned money just to gamble?

Have you experienced this kind of situation wherein you spend huge amount of money and then regret after the loss? Is your reaction the same with that guy on the video?
It's unfortunate, but influencers deserve such things because they are the reason for a lot of people getting into gambling and losing a lot of money. Imagine if he didn't lose but won, those who were watching him at that moment would have a serious urge to do the same thing because winning $4000 or more in just a couple of minutes is a dream for everyone and when they see their favourite influencer doing it, they might try to do the same and then lose their money.

Right now, those who were watching him when he lost the money, none of his viewers would want to gamble because they have seen the disastrous outcome of gambling through the influencer they were watching and they wouldn't want to have the same results at all.

I have never thought of that. What is important to me is on how they help their customers when there are concerns and how they're giving us the help that we need and deserve.

So, I don't have to know who's behind that chat support or zendesk as long as the approach to me is that they're friendly and helpful, that's already a thumbs up and that's the kind of customer service and experience that I am wanting.

And that's one big factor that many of us considers from using a casino.
That's what most gamblers see when they join a platform, they first check if the platform is reputable and then they want good services out of which customer service is the priority because a customer anywhere would want to have complete attention when it's needed and the issues discussed should be listened to and resolved as quickly as possible which is only what makes a customer stay because if a customer doesn't get good customer service, they will not keep using the services anymore.

So when it comes to casino platforms, people often don't care about the team managing the platform, who the owner is, who is managing the support team, etc.

I was not seeing it but Al Hilala remains undefeated in this competition and only two draws, mega campaing they are doing, and all this without Neymar really impressive, only 10 goals allowed half less than the second best defense team who has only 22 goals allowed, so they are making good on offensive and also in the defense. Claps for the coach.
With the very impressive results that Al Hilal managed to have this season without Neymar, then why did Al Hilal buy Neymar and I am very curious about the purpose of Al Hilal buying Neymar. Whether Al Hilal just following the trend or Al Hilal really purely aims to strengthen its squad with star players like Neymar. But yes, the fact is that Neymar has only played a few times since Neymar arrival at Al Hilal, if I'm not mistaken Neymar only played 3 matches for Al Hilal. After that, Neymar injured until now and made Neymar body fatter now like a retired player, it's very funny. But indeed, as long as Al Hilal is still able to pay Neymar salary then it will be fine. But yes, if I consider what is happening right now about Neymar condition, it doesn't seem like a good situation either because with a fatter body like that it will certainly make Neymar unable to play as well as before.
In early days of this season their best intention of bringing these big names were they were looking for big fan base and this was possible with the name of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi but as Messi rejected their offer and go to MLS then Saudi League organizers were looking for another top player from the South America, and they have Neymar even all we have known about him, he is mostly injury prone and also having many other troubles but still Al Hilal take this risk which ends in fail so after this now they are still had good quality players which are giving their best, and they are capable of having good performance with most chances in this season they are going to win title, and we will have some good changes from them in coming season which will give them good improvement.

Manchester United have fallen out of the title race, but it is not too late to finish in the top four. Manchester United must rely on themselves in the remaining matches this season, they must maintain their performance to collect the full points up for grabs in each match. Their opportunity to get into the top four is very open, currently they are only three points behind Tottenham who are in fifth place and five points from Aston Villa who are in fourth place. Ten Hag, who has just found the best form of play for his team, will try to take advantage of the opportunities that are in front of him. It will not be difficult for Manchester United to overtake Tottenham and Aston Villa if they manage to achieve consecutive wins in the remaining matches this season.
Honestly it would be a miracle if Man Utd displace Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa from the fourth and fifth positions this is due to the team inconsistency in their performance though it's seem the team has woke up and had improved having won four consecutive matches now, however can the team sustain their recent winning mentality? They would play Fulham and Nothingham Forest in FA cup thereafter play Man City at the Etihad stadium if they can get a positive result from these matches then the team would definitely vie  for top 4, as the league gradually winding up matches would become very competitive because every team would up their game.
Miracle is too big for this all because if we check in last five games performance which are clearly giving indication how things are changing quickly then we can understand easily all is possible as in last five games we have 8 points lost by Aston Villa and then 7 points lost by Tottenham and Manchester United lost only 2 points mean they are giving their best and trying to narrow this margin which is 5 points and 13 matches remaining even no one can predict how will be performance for these three teams but surely now we are having interesting changes and many possibilities are available for these three to fight hard for the remaining fourth spot which is surely not easy but now anybody game and anyone can go through from here for this spot which is wide open for these all three Manchester United is surely now mentally better, and their top players are also doing good.
198  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: February 20, 2024, 01:50:32 PM
With 13 games remaining, I think it will be very difficult for Girona and Barcelona to catch Real Madrid and talk about the La Liga title race. Madrid has really appeared solid and consistent this season. They only lost once. They have a very good winning mentality. I think with a difference of 8 points from Barcelona and 6 points from Girona it is a very big difference in points. I have never seen Madrid underperform this season. They have really performed well in La Liga and the Champions League.
Madrid felt lucky, when they performed poorly Girona could not maximize the opportunity to win. A draw mybe would have been better. I saw Girona perform below their best. Especially in defense. The 2 goals were defensive errors.
I'm not sure if this is the start of Girona running out of steam. They've lost 2 consecutive matches. Maybe if they manage to win the next game against Rayo they still have a chance to continue to catch Real Madrid.
In few terms we can call Real Madrid lucky but still we can't predict title race is over because remaining 13 matches can bring many changes at the top with recently we have injuries for the Real Madrid and things are not challengeable for the other teams so they can cut this difference which will make end of this season entertaining but as we have Girona against Athletic Bilbao this was really frustrating with Barcelona is also leaking too many goals which are surely matter of concern Atlético Madrid and Athletic Bilbao are having more than 11 points difference which is not easy while you are also not performing as needed so it's going to be good and competitive end of the season in La Liga with four teams are fighting for the three spots, and we have to wait until last few matches for the perfect prediction.

I don’t think the mother is mad about her son gambling, just the way he got the money. Stealing is a crime and if unchecked he could develop a habit for it and steal from someone who is not as sentimental and would very well call the cops. I think the mother is trying to prevent such an occurrence from happening in the future, the OP doesn’t say the age of the boy, I can only assume he’s a teenager. The family should have a sit down with the boy and let him know the consequences of his actions.
A child or a teenager stealing money from his father or mother or anyone around him/her is a question mark on the upbringing of the parents in the first place. So the first thing they should do is question themselves about how they have raised their child. Once they do that, then they should think of a way they can handle the situation and they should make sure that whatever they do should make the child understand, it shouldn't make him too much frightened but he should learn his lesson so that he doesn't repeat the same thing again or do anything that is considered bad.

A sitting with the child should be okay but it shouldn't be full of affection and encouragement to make the child think that he can do whatever he wants because the elders won't mind or do anything at all.

Your budgeting knowledge before gambling is impressive. I agree that financial stability should precede gaming. Gambling should be delayed if one's salary barely covers needs. Not simply having a budget, but prioritizing needs over wants.
Only an irresponsible person would prioritize their wants and activities over their household and family and spend the money on gambling that is supposed to be used on the monthly expenses of his household and family, and you can't talk sense into an irresponsible person.

Someone sane would never gamble first and then think of how he will fulfil the basic needs of his family once the money is lost, that isn't what a wise and responsible person would do.

A wise person would not go near the casino until or unless they realize that they have covered everything else with their income and still have some money left that they can use for whatever they want, and that is when they can decide whether they want to gamble it or buy something for himself or maybe his wife or kids, etc.
