Arsenal only managed to compete for the title with Manchester City last season. Towards the end of the season, the performances of Arsenal's players were erratic and the points gap between Arsenal and Manchester City increased. City's performance has improved tremendously due to coach Guardiola. The strongest team in the Premier League is Manchester City.

All the teams are trying to make themselves stronger in the coming season. Manchester United and Chelsea in particular are desperately trying to build stronger squads. But I think Manchester City will be favorite for next season's title. Because Manchester City already has a strong squad. And the bonding between the players is very strong.
Arsenal is unpredictable team in Premier League now in this season they are bringing few good players but still It's not sure if they can repeat performance like last season but on other hand Manchester City is doing this all consistently and their coach is also having enough sources to fix their problems quickly now we have no sure about Arsenal how they will be performed with Liverpool and Manchester United are also bringing quality players and things are not easy for the Arsenal, but Manchester City is surely on same level even they also lost few players, but they have enough replacements as well.

In upcoming season, most chances we will have no fight for the title as Manchester City is surely at the top of the game and can repeat their performance which was in last season with we will have just one or two changes in top four even this is also not clear because all are doing good work with competitiveness is also impressive in this league.

It will even take time for the price to reach $40k in my opinion, and there isn't a lot of time until we reach the next month, so we shouldn't really be expecting such high gains every month since we are not in the bull run as of now. And Bitcoin might or might not hit $100k this bull season, everything depends on the demand and how much money investors pour in during or before the bull run to fuel the price up, but it is a very high target.

A reasonable target for the bull run this time would be maybe around $80k or something because the previous all-time high was $69k and the price will surely first need to reach there and then it will go above it, so for the price to reach $69k first it would take a lot of demand and investments.

What online gambling does is that it makes people lazy once they get addicted to it, people start thinking that they don't need to do any job and they can make some money each week from gambling by sitting in the comfort of their homes without any stress of any job or earning at all, these are the kind of people who can barely make their lives better in the future and are mostly dependent on others to feed them and their family out of misery.

And, such people never learn from their mistakes, they might regret doing something for a very short period of time, but after some time, they will start doing that again, especially if it's about gambling, they might lose a lot of money and morn for a while but start gambling again and forget what happened earlier.
They are wrong if they think that way because gambling is not to make money and they should find other ways to make money. They will only get frustrated when they lose so many times that they have to change their mind to find a job to make money.

Hopefully, these people can open themselves up to accept suggestions from those closest to them so that they can begin to realize that what they have been doing is wrong. And hopefully, they will regret it and won't do it again. Even so, they can still play gambling but must have good self-control so they don't experience the same incident as before.
It is not easy to gamble with discipline, and not everyone can do that because greed takes over and people simply forget that they have to follow discipline and have self-control, they just keep gambling until they have time and money and don't know when to stop even if they have managed to win a significant amount. That is why some people will never understand, even if they do, they just can't control the urge and will do the same again.

So only a few people can have discipline when gambling and control themselves and their minds and urges when they try to force them to gamble when they shouldn't, gambling normally is okay but excessive gambling is definitely not good for anyone because that makes you addicted.

Novak Djokovic and Alcaraz's match has concluded with a surprising twist. My expectations of a fiercely contested and captivating battle were not misguided. This showdown had all the ingredients for an enthralling spectacle. Ultimately, Álvarez Garfield emerged victorious. Although both players put up a strong fight in the fifth set, ultimately, there could only be one triumphant player in this fiercely competitive contest. Novak Djokovic has a chance, I thought after the first set. But Alcaraz Garfia, number one in the whole world, showed why there is a reason.
As Novak Djokovic won first set I was really shocked and then have feeling most chances he will win this match by big margin and straight sets but after two sets things were looking fascinating, but Alcaraz's fight in third set completely change the momentum and things were at level for the both players but in last and fifth set we have early breakthrough which helps Alcaraz to win this historic event and Novak Djokovic have his first defeat in years.
 
This was fairly one of the best match while we have two top class players in our front in tennis court, and they were giving their best for the win now with this win we have big change in tennis future because big three eras is almost ended now who is going to rule it's surely interesting.

Since I tried this strategy I believe more and more that playing casino is not because of strategy so it still depends on luck, because if this strategy works and makes people rich then I will use it every day, but it will never work because I've tried it and I lost more than 20x in a row so it drained my money fast.
In gambling there are no really effective strategies, even professional gamblers will not believe that the strategies used in gambling are just empty words. We will still be playing against the house, win business and being able to pick up that win means his mental destiny is under control but when he returns to gambling the next day and gets the win I am not sure he will be as successful with the same picks. Humans who can not be separated from ambition and emotion then anything can happen. Especially in gambling that will only slide into the abyss that has been prepared by the casino house.
People who believe in strategies and think that they might be able to maximize their wins using strategies tend to lose more money than those who don't believe in them, take the example of a person playing dice who believe in strategies, he will get a loss and start using martingale strategy so that he can recover every loss and don't lose anything, he might get his losses back once or twice but eventually, they will lose everything back to the house because of a loss streak.

Now imagine someone who is gambling but doesn't believe in strategies, he might face a lot of losses and might get a lot of wins as well, but at the end of the session, he might be at a loss but he won't be out of money but his bankroll will still have some balance because he didn't use any strategy.

For now it looks like Harry Kane is getting closer to leaving Tottenham because his agent or his father has made a fairly advanced approach with Bayern Munich. Levy will eventually let Harry Kane go and that will be the final drama of Bayern Munich signing. Bayern Munich has pretty good prospects for Harry Kane career next season because he can achieve many individual achievements if he joins Bayern Munich.

Tottenham has indeed been the longest team Harry Kane has defended in his career so it will be quite difficult to make that decision if he really has high loyalty to Tottenham. That was where the situation made his transfer to Bayern Munich never end. Even a tempting offer has been rejected by Tottenham in the two bids that have been made by Bayern Munich.
Harry Kane is one of the best strikers in the world at the moment and probably the most consistent striker in the English Premier League over the last decade yet he has no major trophy to show for his goal scoring prowess.
He must leave Tottenham Hotspur now if his dreams of winning a major silverware is still alive. Bayern Munich will certainly be a good destination for the Englabd international because playing for Bayern guarantees him major trophy in his first season at the club
We were never been so close for this transfer but right now all indicators are showing things are clearly going for the possible transfer of Harry Kane with most chances Bayern Munich could be beneficiary party because little news are showing one English Premier League club can steal this show but nothing is official just Bayern Munich is increasing their bid and still in talk with his agent and Tottenham which is good move.

In current time he is one of the best player, and he deserves trophies to be won before end his career because he already good too much to this club but in return fail to have anything which is never been ideal for the world-class striker if he moves to Bayern Munich then surely we will have good race for the Champions League title because now few teams are gearing up and few are losing their momentum which can give good chance to Bayern Munich.

My faith in LaLiga is on Valencia this year to reach at least top 5 and be back into a European Competition for next year because it has been some years when we last saw them competing into Europa League ...because UCL is a forgotten competition for them ...Sad. If somehow , they won't perform this year , I'm afraid Valencia will have to re-think their entire strategy because it's clearly that defensive style is not suiting them as last year they barely avoid the relegation.
In last season, there were few hopes for having better results but sadly suddenly they were down with having chance for the relegation as well which was really sad news for the supporters their performance is surely unpredictable and most of the time having REDCARD is also having another issue for them now I have feeling most chances if they will be not improved in early half of this season then most chances they could be dropped from the La Liga and can go through down in next season right now they have enough time for setting good strategy which helps them for staying in above half of the league table.

Going into European competitions are never been easy as many teams are giving their best and their quality is also much better from them, hopefully we will have positive change and improved performance which helps them for staying into better spot of league table.

Actually, it's true that no money that is earned after working hard is extra or is affordable to be lost, but when we have different expenses and activities that require money, we set a budget for each one of these things and we use them accordingly, now the money that one can afford to lose in gambling is basically the budget allocated for gambling or the extra money that remains after creating a budget for each expense for the month or the week.

Now though it's true that no one likes to lose money that they've earned in some way, even if it's being spent on something they like to do, it would still feel bad if they don't get anything out of it, I know gambling is fun and you get entertained from it but having some fun on the expense of losing money is not an easy thing to do.
1289  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How was your first experience with gambling? on: July 16, 2023, 05:08:30 PM
Gambling was something I never wanted to do in my life,I didn't know how to go about it and I wasn't interested in it,until a friend that was very close to me won a huge amount of money,that was when my attention shifted to gambling site,I started gambling everyday,staking with my last card just to make money but I wasn't lucky atall,i gambled to the extend that I couldn't stop it again,I was addicted to it because I wanted to recover my money I have lost while gambling,but it wasn't easy atall,I havent been able to recover my money since my day one of gambling,and I am finding it difficult to stop it.
Sometimes I stop it for some months,and I will still go back again to play it,there is nothing I can do,but I just keep going.
In most cases, people start gambling because they've seen someone winning a significant amount through gambling which makes them think that what if they also manage to get that much money through it if they try their luck, that is when they start gambling to see if they can actually get something out of it but usually, they don't get any significant wins but they keep losing money to the gambling sites over and over again but still won't stop.

The reason why they can't stop is because they've already become addicted and the thought that they will win something now if they play again, they keep doing that until they lose everything they have, that is how someone ends up becoming a gambling addict and then never manage to get out of it.

Bitcoin has a maximum total supply, which has already created and no additional Bitcoin is going to create, in time's of lost Bitcoin wallet has no meaning if it replaced as long no additional Bitcoin going to be created but rather using the reserve to feel the gab of the lost wallet, I don't think such can exist, because lost of Bitcoin is a result of lost of private key, password and devices used to store your Bitcoin, in the near future Bitcoin will taken advantage of lost to keep increasing in price, because of scarcity in the cryptocurrency market.
Before there are talks about extending the Bitcoins supply I think they will use a technology called Taproot if I am not mistaken. I wonder if that development are still on going but we will see soon if they are successful with that or not.

There is no such thing as reserved Bitcoin that will replace the lost Bitcoin of others. Once a private key is lost, there might be a recovery method that we can use to find them, if not then we can declare that the Bitcoins are lost completely. We shouldn't wish that many people will lose their Bitcoins even though it can make the price rise. That's evil. Besides it is still possible for Bitcoins value to grow the natural way.

I think he is the one who is complaining in the chat because of the same username, there is no even someone who replied to his message in the chatroom. It means that there is no one from the casino who is active at the time he posted the message. Sending them an email is good option (he did it already) but I think it will be the same where this player need to wait until the owner/admin online. New site but treat player like this is not really a good sign, especially it is just small amount of withdrawal.
Yeah, make sense, no one is responding meaning no one is online to handle his issues or concern.

And thanks to this use for bringing this up and hopefully the OP can have someone to look at the issues and help their customers as we here in the forum are very much concern of new casinos.

If they are not paying then there could be scam accusations which is not good for a new platform being advertise here.
Not good to see something like that exist since this is bad for their business and people might dislike the fact that they are so weak on their support side. Maybe they need to fix that area and solve issue more faster since this is how a casino earn a good reputation. Solving issue is important factor for those people seeking for casino to play and if many see that they did not take an action on those existing issue maybe many will get discourage to tty this casino.
To solve the issue a little faster is better than simply having an active support. So many casinos are like this. It's still useless. It's like the support are only a display. There are still times where an issue will take time to be resolved especially if it's a big one so all must have a patience. Complaining won't help but it will only delay the problem more because the team can't focus on resolving it.

There are still other factors that makes the casino earn its reputation. It's not a long time since this casino here was introduced so they might still be new and they can still improve. Our feedbacks here are a good thing to them. Let's only come back later on to see if they already fixed some things.
1292  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What kind of rewards/bonuses do you prefer? on: July 16, 2023, 07:08:10 AM
And by understanding the terms and procedures, we won't be wrong in taking the bonuses we want and missing bonuses we can't afford to achieve. As gamblers, we must be wise in taking bonuses and estimating which bonuses we can take so that it won't be difficult for us. With the requirements that we can achieve, of course, we can also get bonuses so that it's not in vain that we play gambling. While we are playing gambling, maybe we can also get big wins so if we want to withdraw the winning money, there will be no problem because we have complied requirements and followed the procedure.
Someone like me is not that bonus freak gambler, I will first ensure that i relate all the benefits together with the efforts am to provide and the probability of me getting what i want before working for any kind of bonus offer, that's why it something most gamblers ensure they got paid for the ones that achieved weekly than for staying long overdue for receiving payment, then the casinos we make promotions for must also respect our integrity by making swift response whenever a task is completed by the gamblers for receiving their bonus.
Imagine if you are already playing for profit and then you are also a bonus freak, I think that will be a double cost, as we all know that most bonuses have a harder terms. You will deposit a certain amount and play for the bonus and after that, you can also deposit only to play a normal game because you fail on achieving the bonus.

A proper understanding about the bonus is a must so that we can decide properly if we will go for it or not. In terms of payment, I think it depends. I know early payments are great but if I can get paid bigger the longer I wait, I won't hesitate to choose it. I think you are referring to sig campaign here. If so, don't worry because I am sure casino appreciates our efforts on promoting their company.

The fact that Lonzo played just a while and retired before 30 is a seriously sad thing to see. He was just getting better as well, at Bulls he became a bit better, checking his stats and all it looks like he was a good part of a decent team. Of course he wasn't the main part of it, but he was at least part of a decent team. In any case, seeing young players stop like this is always sad, I remember Brandon Roy as well and him quitting because of his knees, that was a terrible thing to see as well.

I hope he lives rest of his life good enough, he made some good money from NBA to be fair and if he invested them smartly then he will definitely have a lot of money, not sure if BBB ever made him any money, but his contracts were big.
1294  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: July 15, 2023, 05:31:20 PM
True, the aim of the saudi league is to become the most popular league in the world and they will not care about the harsh criticism from all those who do not like their way of attracting the attention of European players using money. Maybe no one would have thought that there were so many European players who were interested in joining the Saudi league team even though they could still be considered productive at their age and of course they had calculated well before deciding on their career here. Regarding the transfer market, there is still about 1 month left and that is still long enough for the Saudi league team to continue to bring in other European players. I think a big investment will also bring a big return and that is what the Saudi league is aiming for.
If these recently signed players do not demonstrate their most outstanding competence, the squad will undoubtedly suffer. The Saudi Arabian league would be a formidable and competitive competitor to European football. Saudi signing these tremendous names over, and checking the caliber of the players, it's pretty clear that they're not playing for the passion, love they have for the club, but rather for the money. Perhaps it's not such a bad notion; at the very least, they'd develop the desire to play for these Saudi teams with all their hearts, voluntarily giving their best performance at all times.
Right away having comparison between leagues is never been ideal because it's not going to happen with Saudi League is relatively new and just going through for their start with new players and have time to bring for competitiveness and European Leagues are without any doubt one of the best in world and their version of Champions League is amazing because it's dream of every top player in the soccer world.

As of now, Saudi League is going ahead for the better future and their first goal is having intention form the world about themselves as well as the competition and having better results in it's long run but here surely I agreed right now mostly players are going through for the money instead of quality or competitiveness because for this all we have to wait how things will be gone in near future.
1295  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Lotteries and possibility vs. probability on: July 15, 2023, 01:50:14 PM
That's true 1 lottery ticket is sufficient enough to make someone a winner of the lottery because in these games the more someone buys the higher are the chances of that person to win the lottery. Only those people who are extremely lucky can win with a single lottery ticket, and I believe that those people are exceptional few in the world.

The other lucky people also need to buy more tickets in order to have a winning lottery. The lottery games are 100% luck oriented and anyone who is lucky enough will win in those games with far more success than the less lucky people. Lottery games are also luck based games and anyone who is lucky will win in these games and those who aren't lucky will never win even if they buy 100's of tickets.
But some people buy lottery tickets just to see if they can win like everyone else or if they will lose. But it turns out that they managed to win the prize and some were even able to get the jackpot so this is a rare case in lottery games. Such people exist. They have probably never played the lottery before and have only heard other people talk about their losing lottery buys. And it was because of that person's luck that he managed to make him win the jackpot prize so he got a lot of money. But we can't be like him because our luck will surely be different.
There are people who are extremely lucky in this world, these people can even win a jackpot with a single lottery ticket or with a single spin in a slot machine, we regular people cannot match their level of luck, we become happy when we hit a 10x multiplier while they get about 1000x or even more without even spending a lot of money or making a lot of efforts or spending much time sitting in front of their computers and gambling for hours.

We can't help but envy such people but that's absolutely useless, we can't get as lucky as them if we envy them or do whatever, it's all about your destiny and luck and if it's not so good, you would never be able to win anything significant through gambling or any means in life.
1296  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Appropriate percentage of income for gambling on: July 15, 2023, 09:56:34 AM
I think there are a lot of factors that can affect that percentage, such as how much you earn, whether you are single or married, in which country you live to evaluate the cost of life, and a lot more things that come to your mind when you are about to decide a budget for a certain thing. However, 5% does sound like a reasonable percentage considering all your expenses for the week or the month because you should be able to easily manage everything else in 95%.

When I used to gamble more often back in the day, I used to save this money if one week or month I stay in profit, for example, if I used my 5% for this week and got some profit on top of it, I wouldn't spend 5% more next week and add it to the bankroll but I would just use the previous money and save the 5% that I had to use for gambling.

It looks like there will be a change of all the players too later maybe early in the second half, because usually teams play in events like this just to test and also keep their physical and mental well maintained. So yes, matches like this are basically quite important too to stabilize players but if to place it or include it in the bet for me it's not right. Thus, winning or losing is no longer a target, even though Galatasaray won the title last season it still won't guarantee Galatasaray will win in a match like this.
Good thing happening for top Turkish clubs as they are busy into transfer window for their preparation for the next season even they are facing due to finances but still they are able to have few good players Galatasaray offer rejected by Manchester United about Fred even they want to sell him, but their inquiry was not as their demand.
 
Fenerbahçe is also doing good job and having few targets which will be possible to achieve even they are looking for the De GEA which is currently free agent even Saudi League clubs are also chasing him but most chances he can join Fenerbahçe for the future which could be also good for them if we have Icardi back in Galatasaray then surely things could be much better for them.

I know a lot of people put their hope into ETF's because if they happen then that's going to be a good reason to make money and they think that they are going to make a lot of money from it but that doesn't mean that we are going to end up with a profit like they assume neither, it is going to be totally different than that.

Just go and check the results of tennis today,Europa Conference League,Champions League preliminaries some days ago and you will see a lot of surprise results.These surprise results are common since the gambling and betting on sports started,back in the days of Pele,Kroif and many other legendary players we did not see such surprise results this common and this often.This does not mean that football is better today,in fact completely the opposite,football because of gambling companies interfering some times by bribing the players of a team or a president of the team,makes gambling absolutely a not so steady income,maybe in the past you could do well with sport betting but right now it is impossible.
Dynamics keep changing over time, whether it's of a sport or anything else, but to be honest, that isn't the only reason why gambling shouldn't be considered a way to earn constant income, because even if there is no interference from cheaters and those who bribe players and teams to lose matches or do certain things so that their team loses the match only for them to win their bets and earn a lot of money, gambling still will be just a game of luck.

I know that sports betting generally involves a lot of research and analysis and one needs to have a lot of knowledge and experience regarding a specific sport but at the end of the day, their luck can still make them win or lose in certain matches where they may never have expected a win or a loss.
1300  Economy / Gambling / Re: How does AI gambling sound? on: July 14, 2023, 06:33:24 PM
Some AI can really work and if you happen to find one of such AI it will be much profiting like just like trading AI, but the challenge is that AI can't guarantee 100% chances and no bot can guarantee that also but then we can say that since AI is a new development one need to take the time to really understand its mechanism and operational approach and since AI has to do with programming codes it then means that AI will act according to the scripted programs and codes.
So be that as it may, it means that we have to go unto some form of research to uncover all the potentials and limitations of AI presents.
No AI regardless of how advanced it may be can guarantee short term results, however just as a casino can suffer a loss due to a gambler being lucky but then they can recover that money easily if given enough time, an AI dedicated to gambling could do the same, however developing such an AI should be incredibly difficult as before you can do it you will need to be an expert gambler and an expert on the field of AI, and very few people are experts at both of those topics.
There cannot be AIs that can beat the random numbers generated by the casinos using RNGs because that is the only way one can beat the casino, and it is definitely not going to be difficult to create an AI that will simply set the parameters and click a button for you because that is what a human does when playing gambling games and that is exactly what an AI would do as well, they won't be able to beat the casino in any possible way as the results are generated randomly.

Now even if there are such AI models developed, I don't think it would be fun to use them because the fun factor of gambling is to be able to see the results of a spin or a dice roll and if an AI is doing that, you don't get to see that at all and casinos will also start banning users using such things if detected.
