I have never compromised my money to gambling that is, allocating huge amount of my salary to gamble because I have a very big insight on what it cause to me and moreover it is not something we have to put trust as an ends meet where we are  typically relying to make a larger profits. Although a larger portion can come into whenever we have a sure winning and also lose greatly whenever we allocates a higher amount to gamble but that is not what we can be sure at because it doesn't deal with accuracy or professional we are in our prediction rather being challenged as a luck based game with little or zero chance of winning.
I'm the only one that can narrates how much energy I've put in before getting this job, then swinging it away due to distraction is not an option. When it's time for work, 100% concentration is on work because it's definitely what settle my bills and make me comfortable in my current state. Gambling just serves as an extra activity inother to fit in free time, we are present to face the joys and sadness of life.
Money compromise on gambling, ofcourse this doesn't always end up good because we record heavy lidded, perhaps not everyone hare opportune to grab their enormous winnings on first wagering, we have what we call beginner's luck, which deviates as time goes on.

Are you sure we don't need to worry about Barcelona? Have you counted how many Barcelona players got injured? There are 6 Barcelona players who got injured, it means they are not in a good condition now. Sadly, those 6 players are mostly the key players for Barcelona squad. If they often get injured, it may ruin their performance. Those players will be difficult to maintain their good performance due to injured problem.

Anyway, I think you too underestimate Girona. They played quite consistent so far, they started this season perfectly. Although they got 1 defeat, it doesn't mean they probably easier got more losses. In reality, they still can maintain good performance.


La Liga becoming tougher to anticipate and have basically full game competitions from both elite and mediocre teams. It's only matter of time to decide the most outstanding club currently to lift La Liga trophy this season. Underrated Girona because it's an average team and praising Barcelona to win La Liga league title this season would be quite challenging for them. The blaugrana are face with challenges this season, from problems from the finance sector to the players who have sustained long-term injury, some might come back in extreme incredible shape while some can not be able to meet up the top expectations from fans.

Gambling can affect relationships in both good and bad ways. It depends on what an individual player does in a casino. As long as he is not an addict, we know that a gambling addict has no control over what he does.

And everyone is a gambling addict who can no longer control what he calls self-control and self-discipline. Instead, such a person who is addicted to gambling has damaged his personal personality, and the same affects his family badly because there are others that even lead to the destruction or separation of the couple.
Addicts are the worst set of gamblers, these category are ready to place wager with their last money on them, having no plans for the future. Allowing gambling to interfere with my relation is so out of the picture, because I anticipate in this gambling in discreetly mode, ensuring I've cover my tracks before returning home, that's one of the reasons I do not place wagers online though it seems as the easiest way to gamble but considering my family and also my partner, it wouldn't be a wise idea because they stated clearly that they don't pick interest in gambling.

One thing that I'm learnt about gambling is never to chase my losses, if not I'll be inflicting more pains on myself. Whenever I'm on a losing streak, I learn to accept it in good fate because some days are not meant to be mine. I'll stop gambling for the moment or for the day, switch of my laptop and go for a walk, hang out with friends and clear your head. But if I try to chase my losses at that current state, I'll only end up causing more harm to myself than good and there's no way I'll be able to recover the lost funds.
As a gambler, we should expects losses and profits to hits us because it's not easy to grab excellent chances, when found one opportunity, we should make sure we utilized it very well. Some days, we smile and enjoyed gambling activities because we have earned enormous amounts, while some days, we tend to wear sad faces and becomes more frustrated if we continue to place wager on games. Talking about clearing our head, I personally heads up to play video games and probably take a walk to recreational centers which serves as my favorite outing

While most of the gamblers only focus on attracting luck, few of them are definitely working on their own interest and passion in gambling games, and that’s when they build their skills and even game mastery of their desired games. For me, this gives more possibility to win and beat the house because you don’t just play with luck alone, but you have the finest skills and put best interest on your games to make you more motivated to win. If this has become your mindset with playing gambling, most likely you will never suffer from numerous losses but you might be gaining profits most of the time.
Profits and losses are the possible outcomes a gambler faces daily. It's our decision to choose which results will be appropriate for us and our standing. No matter how a gambler gained experience and possess the good attributes to win games, there's always moment and scenario were he would tend to face heavy losses in the system, regrettably he would always match back to elevated levels because he's brilliant and not reluctant like other gamblers. We also determined to developed the proper positive mindset because there's that's exactly what keeps us going.

Yes, usually we saw PSG which are consistent but this season we see Nice which are really great at maintaining their performance. The Nice players are very solid, they already proven that because they haven't lost so far. Although Nice doesn't have a top striker, but this team have something that other teams don't have, I mean good cooperation between players. Nice can beat Monaco which is on fire, and Nice can beat PSG the strongest team in Ligue 1. Nice achievements this season are truly impressive, although it is too early to say this but I think Nice team will be difficult to beat this season.
This season  is no were close to mid-season, we shouldn't jump inclusion about Paris Saint Germain performance, they have one of the hugh  chances of bouncing back to glory. Nice are simply no match for PSG but with the current form, they have good probability to fight with PSG foe Ligue One title this season. Nice stands to be the only team that's unbeaten this season, 4W 4D 0L though it's quite poor but they're not backing down to accept defeats, not yet. Nice headcoach, Francesco Farioli is a good manager that knows specifically the areas that needs instant improvements, always working on his team inother to provide good support.  
807  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Not keeping records makes me a bad gambler? on: October 11, 2023, 09:08:07 PM
I can't think of any good results of keeping a record from your losses or your wins, except that it will make you realise how much money you have spent in gambling and how money you have lost so far. Outside that, there are nothing you can do about it because all of it are history.
Positive realisations will make you minimize the expenses in gambling, but if you disregard the record then it's better not to keep any record at all lol.
Lastly, not keeping records doesn't make you bad at all, but having records can do you good.
We have different ideas and minds, quite a lot to handle. Feeling remorse for your past mistakes each time you turn to these records, it functions as a reminder for the good and terrible moments encountered in gambling, so it's completely irrational to me, and I don't value looking back, perhaps for what reason? I have more steps to take and targets to meet; settling for fewer hours will simply deplete me and remind me of earlier huge losses; I get it now, mistakes are learned and corrected, therefore I'm doing my best to do more efficiently the next time.
808  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A Lady Cried After Losing to Sports Bet. Gambling is Not Your Mate. on: October 11, 2023, 09:01:20 PM
She treats gambling as a source of income and for sure that bet is that she has already planned out what she will do with her winnings as she is really sure that she will win but the luck doesn't goes her way. I've seen multiple people that are crying on social media but not to the point that they are showing their faces as they got lost in sports betting. Even though you bet on a stronger team it doesn't mean that always that stronger team will win as there are times when there are injured players or their play is not as great as before.
Gambling is comparable to cryptocurrency because they both shared the exact similarity which is volatility. The lady in question ought to shed tears because she's have liquidated an enormous amount of money, leading to shattered hopes from the terrible outcomes of gambling. Perhaps we're only humans and none is above mistakes, we look forward to correct them in present time. It's never a wise decision to anticipate in gambling, rather there are other businesses to engage in and record gigantic profits. Gambling is not a negative thought but depending on gambling for income is totally worng and its a situation that needs to be entirely addressed.
809  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If we lose in gambling, what do we need to do? on: October 11, 2023, 08:39:48 PM
The point is that everyone want to make winnings or keep making profits and no one want to be a loser but the reality is that not everyone that is gambling or making bet will be a winner. Gambling is a matter of luck and if luck does not work for us then we should expect to lose. This is why sometimes we might make a big winning while other time, we might end up losing. There is no guarantee in gambling and we need to keep to the activity to test our skill in making predictions and earning too. It is very important for us to have a work that keep giving us money so that even when we lost we are not going to go and beg for money or borrow money.
Winning is the ultimate targets for all gamblers in the system, they simply forgets the sacrifices involves in gambling, not a regular activity  but it involves money and stress specifically when  losing. Making big wins from gambling is not an easy task but with appropriate strategy, nothing is impossible to achieved. If we lose, there's definitely a come back but not today but hoping for greater opportunities to grab good entry another day. Gambling is risky, a repetitive statement from me because there's greater chances of losing deposited capital for gambling.

Tottenham's performance this season is quite impressive and it is beyond many people's expectations. If they are able to be consistent with this performance then I think it is very likely that Tottenham can remain at the top of the standings to compete for championships until the end of the season.
Since the entire squad had been centered around Harry Kane for so long, I had a hunch that the team would struggle to crack the top 10 when he left. However, the team's success has stunned everyone, and they continue to be one of the unbeaten teams in Europe. Nobody anticipated that the new manager would find it so simple to adapt in such a short period of time, but he has done an excellent job. Too early to predict who wins BTW.

And Manchester City did experience a slight decline in performance in their last 2 matches, but that was because several of their main players were absent, which had a big impact on their performance, however, I think this will not take long, this team will be able to recover quickly.
They constantly struggle without Rodri because he holds down the midfield and the defense line, and when he's not there, the team is frequently exposed. After the international break, Rodri will return, but KDB is most likely to do so in January..

Doesn't really matter if he speaks true here, as i am certain that the team would confirm that without giving vip status to some random nobody. Otherwise anyone could get it. And while i think that team takes something like this seriously because it's $45M and you don't want to pass the change of that being true. I am still sure he/she needs to prove it, with screenshots and tx:s or, what would be easier way then start gambling and getting high rank in no time.
One can alter a screenshot. No bookies will provide you VIP status if you pretend to have $45 million in assets. Additionally, requesting for VIP status via support team chat is such a bullshit request. VIP status has many additional advantages and bonuses, all of which come with it. If he bets a lot, he will quickly receive VIP status since it is given depending on wagering amounts.

Who keep $45m on a betting account anyway. He's just trolling.

Shuffle coin? This is a great announcement if this will have some value. But I have watched in so many casinos that their released coins get dumped later and have no value left which makes gamblers feel they are duped.
This is the new trend on casino as bonus and other signups bonuses are now pay in tokens, I guess that's the same thing Shuffle is up to.

Not everyone trusts their IP addresses with a third-party website like this. Op claimed he doesn't save logs, but how can we be sure if the project is closed-source? It is better to be safe than sorry.
In fact, the only record that exists is the IP, for image moderation reasons. But, nothing that a VPN can't solve.
But, maybe I can still change this type of moderation.
Yeah, I agree that this type of moderation needs to be modified for the sake of privacy, but it wouldn't matter if you made improvements to the Tor site since individuals that value privacy highly won't use the cleanet.

I want to ensure you that the talkimg.com site runs well when I use it and there are no problems when I upload images in several browsers that I use such as Mozilla, Kiwi and Tor.

There was a failure, but it wasn't bad because after I reloaded the browser, the site returned to running normally.
I want to say that this talkimg hosting is an amazing project even though there are other image hosting sites, but I am comfortable using talkimg.com

When you stay off a website for a long time you will be forced to refresh it before using, it happens everytime not only on talkimg

For the record I was not convinced and at the same  I was open to learn.

I came across another interesting argument
I am more curious as to where you came across such a strange FUD about Bitcoin which doesn't take any effort to debunk?
Although some attempt was made, none of it was really persuasive; all the responses I read were essentially "false" straight replies that did not provide any supporting evidence. I knew I will get detailed answers here. I will get back to those fuckers now.

Is all of Bitcoin pre-mimed? Or simply another falsehood.
Start running a full node and you'll see your UTXO database (a database containing any spendable coins) is empty. As you sync and download the first block (block #1) it remains empty because reward of Genesis block (block #0) is not spendable and the reward for first block needs to mature 100 blocks. As you continue downloading blocks you can clearly see how the UTXO database grows as new coins are created, all of which is timestamped and is unchangeable so you can literally see how each and every single satoshi was created by miners one block at a time.
I've always hoped to host my own Bitcoin nodes someday, but where I hail from, it's practically hard to download the complete blockchain due to poor internet connections and inconsistent electrical supply.
814  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / 100% of Bitcoin Pre-mimed In the first block- 21m in circulation. on: October 10, 2023, 04:54:37 AM
I came across another interesting argument regarding Bitcoin being completely pre-mined while reading an interesting article about how Ethereum being 75% pre-mined. According to what I've read, all 21m Bitcoins were issued when the first block was mined in January 2009 and were released into circulation through block subsidies to miners to help pay for ongoing operations.

Is all of Bitcoin pre-mimed? Or simply another falsehood.

If every single coin was already mined, in my opinion, there wouldn't be anything like the Bitcoin halving.
815  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: October 10, 2023, 04:20:35 AM
So far in the Bundesliga, we know Bayern Munich has a much better squad than other teams like Dortmund or Leverkusen, and even Stuttgart, but still Bayern Munich couldn't get good results like these teams got so far in Bundesliga games.
Stuttgart's performance was amazing so far thanks to their palyer Serhou Guirassy and Leverkusen got a coach like Xabi Alonso who is a great advantage for this team.
Although Bayern Munich has the talent, Bayer Leverkusen and Stuttgart are the teams to beat this year. Those two teams have a strong start, and Dortmund, on the other side, is capitulating to the title challenge. Similar to last season, when Dortmund dragged out the title race until the final match, Bayern will not have it easy. This season will be the same.

Bayern's effortless dominance is coming to an end since the best teams are now actually competing against one another, as opposed to before when they got away with everything without a fight.

I was wondering who i could contact either here or on telegram/discord about VIP? I have 45 million wagered on stake and 20 million wagered on bc and im looking gor a new sportsbook but want to make sure im treated correctly, i contacted support but they brushed me off


Hahaha SER! You can't merely just approach/talk to people, then make an introduction that you made wagers that totalled $65 million in two different casinos/sports-betting sites. Because even though you truly have wagered $65 million, I believe it would actually look more credible if you simply asked the casino how much their highest betting limits currently are for more serious punters.

To be frank, a serious punter might not want their total amount wagered be known by many people, especially in forums.
If there is one thing I've noticed from the scam accusations and the forum as a whole, it's that newbie accounts are always the ones complaining about how they were cheated out of a lot of money and how they wagered a lot of money at casinos. However, the truth is that most of these newbies are not actually newbies; some are reputation members hiding behind a newbie account, while others have been around for a long time and don't care about the forum merit system

That said, it has been shown that gamblers enjoy appearing in public to receive approval.Even if I don't believe in many of the newbies here, showbiz like this is fairly prevalent in the gambling community where I hang around. Gamblers do, in fact, enjoy receiving praise from others.

Barcelona is weak financially and they are counting on their youth talents in addition to recruiting free players.
After the departure of Ronaldinho, Neymar, Saurez then Messi and the old squad, Barcelona suffered a lot and luckily they found some good players to join the team, especially Lewandowski for a short time but also Lamine Yamal for longer time hopefully. This player was talked about him a lot in press and everyone expect a lot from him in the future. He is doing well until now!
The team was doing fantastic when Ronaldinho, Neymar, and Suarez left because they had Messi, who was accomplishing the unthinkable with other talented players surrounding him. Up until two seasons ago, the team was also doing well financially.

You're true, though, they have been overly reliant on the club academy ever since they ran into financial difficulties. Players like Gavi and Pedri have come through, and now 16-year-old Lamine Yamal is bursting onto the scene.

To upload an image, I've never used Tor; instead, I simply turn on my VPN on websites I don't trust. There's no need to increase your budget threefold when VPNs are an option. I doubt anyone has ever complained about Imgur cleanet.

I am not sure what image you are uploading that needs to done on tor.

I guess some people could be in strict areas of the world and want to remain hidden.

819  Other / Meta / Re: Should Merit-Sources use feelings when giving out Merit? on: October 09, 2023, 05:22:01 PM
Question to the Op; supposing you were in a position to dole merits, would you do that based on the way you feel about the recipient or because the post was worth it? Whatever your answer is, it shows that you'd act based on your individual decision right? I feel that's the same way for the next person. Merits are intended for posts that add value to the forum or must have solved a problem but from the angle you are coming from it seems you are trying to say some merit sources give out their merits to people you feel are not deserving of it, say, like the legendary ranking members.
Not every good post solves or resolves problems; I've seen legitimate questions from newbies get merits as well, so we're all people, and at the end of the day, it's all about personal preference. What interests me may not interest you, which is why we have numerous merits sources in the first place. At least one of them must be in your category.

Chelsea did in the last few games they played quite well and I like some of the wins they did because at least with this my assumption about Chelsea being an ordinary club can be changed again now. But if they want hope to compete for the title I think they still have to continue to prove themselves.
This is only their 2nd consecutive win and currently Chelsea are still ranked 11th so there are still many things they have to improve if they want to be back in the title contender club.
Even if it can still be done if they can be consistent but we will not know whether there will be more jokes or not from them.
Chelsea are back to streak winning ways, they have everything in their possession, the only barrier factor that would hinder the team is the absence of a present top striker ( Jackson ain't bad but he's not a good target man) and creative midfield ( Palmer and Enzo are the only ones in the squad now) , though I'm worried because there's just few months left before Christopher Nkunku will return to training

The blues keep making me proud, thrashing Fulham and Burnley is definitely a good sign to hits back to incredible form, I hope they turn things around from here. They have a week break to rest .
