1341  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How is your Gambling Pattern Like? on: July 06, 2023, 11:29:39 AM
I don't have such gambling pattern, I just gamble what I have and what I want.

Remember, I'm not a gambling addict, I gamble what I have it's not mean I gamble anything I have. I make sure only gamble when I can afford to lose and it will not cause a harm to my life. This week I could gamble $10, next week I could gamble $100, the third week I could gamble $50, it's completely depend on my mood.
That's what everyone should do, one should only gamble what they have extra after all the expenses and savings and stuff, I wouldn't even recommend people spend the money that they can use as savings, but if they have also reached their savings targets for the week or the month, then they can gamble the remaining balance thinking it's a bonus for them that they can use to enjoy, and if it's lost, they should stop right there and don't gamble more.

Those who follow this pattern, they can barely get addicted to gambling because they know they have a limit and they can't cross that limit, and if they can stay disciplined like this, they will never become addicted to gambling and they will always be able to enjoy their gambling sessions while they last.

Chelsea's sale was not effective in my opinion, a lot of their players left for cheap and they also let go of a lot of key players so it is necessary for them to be able to find a suitable replacement, it will cost a lot.
Chelsea made a major team overhaul and that made it a little risky to build a team from scratch again by replacing all the important pillars, but if you look at what they got, this had to be done and cost a lot in this transfer market.
I think the most important thing is that they were able to get clubs interested to buy these players because without the sales, it will be difficult making further recruitments and the wage burden of the club will increase rather than decrease. This is good development for the club whether they sold their players for the right price or not, at least they created space for incomings.
I agree because in last season they have few big blunders which ruin this club and completely fail to have any positive impression in league now things are having good chance, and they are going to have new start which will help them for having their lost glory days and first thing was to offload these players which was burden on this club but still they are lucky to have Saudi League which buy few players and now few are also going through other connections which will help this club for having good changes for new season.

Now, we have to check how new coach will trans-mart this club into better and successful club with they have space for the required players and funds are also available even they faced few loses, but things are coming on track.

PSG are likely to hire Luis Enrique as coach. If Luis Enrique is the coach I think he will want full freedom to build his squad. And will want to build his squad from scratch. Mbappe's relationship with Neymar is not good. And so PSG management has to decide to sell one of these two players. PSG did not benefit much by keeping these two players together. I would say PSG should build a squad full of youth with the help of Luis Enrique. As a result, they will get stronger and more organized performances from the squad in the future.
In last few weeks, we have completely different atmosphere at PSG because no one was expecting we will have changes like this right now they are doing changes which are surely going to help them for having their required results or surely changes will be happened in performance as well as they are announced two year contract is already signed with Luis Enrique secondly now Mbappé is also on sell list because he is not happy to extend his contract, and they don't want to keep him even few are thinking deal is already done now just announcement is coming as Real Madrid is completed this all and many new faces are coming here in this club.

Even few things are still looking for settlement but surely now they are doing things which can give change the atmosphere of this club, and also they will be able to have good changes in this club as well surely squad performance will be also much better even they lost too many big names.

Currently there is news that in the end Osimhen will extend his contract with Napoli because seeing from the current conditions where Madrid did not move and Manchester United did not make an offer for him, it is indeed likely that a contract extension will be made by Osimhen.
Actually this has been awaited by Napoli too because seeing from the season before it ended they had offered a new contract for this player but were still held back because at that time there were quite a lot of clubs who wanted Osimhen's services, but when the price set by Napoli was quite high then one by one the clubs who wanted Osimhen to leave.
It is clear from the hefty asking price that Napoli is committed to keeping Osimhen as their mainstay player. They are reluctant to sell him since they understand how important he is to the squad. Napoli though has a well thought out plan in place even if a team were to pay the asking amount. They already know other players who can make a big difference and help them maintain their domination in the standings. Because of this even though worries over Napoli future in the summer may surface it is crucial too have faith in their capacity to adapt and flourish. Napoli will surely be able to keep up their position as one of the top competitors in Serie A thanks to their shrewd management and unwavering ambition.
Right now, talking things like this is too early because now transfer window is already in progress and many big deals are going to happen with many changes are also going to happen in big clubs like PSG is already trying their best for the sell of Mbappé and then surely they will look around for the suitable alternative and Real Madrid is also having search of striker and Manchester United and few other English clubs are also looking for the quality players mean it's just start many ups and downs can happen in next few weeks.

Victor Osimhen and Napoli president already announces about having no any interest in sell of their main player but if they have their targeted price then surely something can cook here without any problem recently we have no good changes in Serie A clubs which mean again Napoli could be in spot for the title race, so it's very interested how this all will be ended.

Does people still use these type of services? I mean these aren’t fixed matches. These are just predictions, and people are risking their money on other people’s predictions. It’s better to do research on your own and bet according to your own will. At least if you face loss, then you will only curse yourself. These type of services, that OP is providing, is often considered as scam, once his customer loses a bet, they will just ignore you or block you. I won’t like to risk my money on other people’s call.
Maybe there is still a demand for it because if not then we will not seeing one anymore. Fixed match groups might be hard to find and many of them are just scams so people are only sticking with this one. Yes, they are only predictions but maybe the predictor is much skilled than those who avail the service so their chance to win is still higher and I think they already know that losing is still possible once they get unlucky.

Researching is free but you know, many of us are lazy of doing it. Researching for the group that they will be using if it's a scam or not seems easier to do. It's crazy if they will block you after a lose not unless if you are complaining.

I don't really think that Arsenal will be able to sign Mbappe from PSG, because we know it will cost a lot to sign him, and on the other hand PSG will also take advantage of this opportunity to get a lot of profit. But if a deal between Arsenal and Mbappe does happen then it could mark a sensational move for Arteta's side. But on the other hand I hope they know they will be second choice after Real Madrid and have to hope the La Liga side will fail in their bid to sign Mbappe. Real Madrid will be at the forefront of Mbappe's hunt and indeed various media crews report that Real Madrid is the first club Mbappe will choose after leaving PSG, but it would not hurt for Arsenal to try first.
Who knows? It will be a surprise if arsenal gonna make a bid for mbappe. I knew that further news regarding liverpool bid for mbappe to come in upcoming days. That's why signing mbappe can be afford by only english premier club team.
I see no chance for other than from different league to sign mbappe as a new player include real madrid which is retain itself from touching mbappe at this moment till next year.
Real madrid will be only willing to get him next season. If mbappe gonna leave in summer and madrid has on choice other than find a replacement for mbappe.
The problem is mbappe puts non sense price for his release clause. The only problem is now if only a few clubs that have power to do that
After fail negotiation between PSG and Mbappé things looking wide open with most chances now he is going to join any English club because Real Madrid is not having enough money, and they can't afford him on current price we have 3 top English clubs which are preparing their bids but who could be winner nothing is clear with most chances Liverpool and Arsenal can fight till end right now Arsenal is doing good in transfer market and if they are able to bring him then surely we can expect big from them for the next season.

Currently, release clause is surely problem, but his salary is also big trouble for the many clubs which are avoiding him from having into their club and only Premier League clubs in position to have afforded of this all if he completed his journey for the England then most chances Real Madrid had to wait long for his availability because next club will also never allow him to leave in near future after spending insane amount.
1347  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Sentiment Poll for July on: July 04, 2023, 04:29:23 AM
Well, according to what I read an statistic based article on cointelegraph, Bitcoin has never lost more than 10% in July, so that basically is a positive sign for the month, but if we see the market at the moment, Bitcoin's price has been stable between $30k and $31k for more than a week already, spectators are confused as to where it will be headed next because it is neither showing positive nor negative movement, investors are all waiting for it to make a move but it's too stable.

If July is considered to be the month that is usually positive for Bitcoin or the cryptocurrency market in general, it should start going up soon, but the month has already started and we still don't see any movement at all, maybe we should wait and see what happens after the first week of the month.
1348  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bet on live game or while game hasn't started yet? on: July 03, 2023, 07:20:39 AM

You are right and indeed it is better to bet when the match has started a few minutes or during the first half break because from there we can see the performance of the game to be able to predict the bets made, it's just that if you bet when the match has started we will get lower different odds if you place a bet at intervals before the match starts.
Seeing match statistics is very important to make more precise predictions.
However betting while the match has started is still not a guarantee that the bet will come to our favour. Gambling is such that table can turn around at any point. At all times we should guide our gambling pulse and not to over stake probably because we feel it will favour our bet and we throw all in. I have witnessed a thing of such where bet happened after the game had started with high hope for winning but at the end the match ended draw with a late goal. What most people are doing now is to have huge bet after the game had started but it is still risky.
That happened to me too, it was a cricket match where I didn't bet initially though I knew which team is stronger and has got better chance of winning, I let the match start and as expected, the team that was the favorite was way ahead of their opponents, so I thought it's a sure win though the odds offered were very low but I went ahead and place my bet with a higher amount than I planned because I thought it is going to be a win for sure.

Surprisingly, the team which was weaker (it was the weakest team in that particular tournament) managed to win the match with a very low target which could be chased easily by the favorite team but they couldn't do it, and I lost my bet and I learned the lesson that we should never take anything for granted.
1349  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: July 03, 2023, 04:21:10 AM
This topic started in January 4th of 2023, so at the start of this year basically and we are in July now. We have 6 months done, and we are above 120 pages already, which means that there has been 20 pages per month, nearly at a level of 0.75 pages per day give or take.

That should be showing you how much this league got popular and when you are wondering why they are overpaying players more than what they are worth, it is 100% definitely not about how good those players are. They do not care about that, they all get someone, that's not the point. The point is that we wrote almost 1 page per day for this league, over half a page at the very least. This is why they spent that money, to be talked about, to be known, and to be followed. They achieved it.
Yeah I agree; right now, their first priority is having some good intention and name around social media and sporting world which is going as their plan, and now they will be on their next step which is surely having some good quality and performance into their league as well because they are paying huge funds and bringing players which will have their part here, and they will also create good momentum for the game and their next big targets as well money is never been problem for them, but their problem is having strong influence which is surely going to have as they are investing and bringing big names.

After the success of Qatar World Cup now Saudis are targeting world cup with the help of two other countries and most chances this is going to be one of the most expensive events in sporting history because they are doing this all for change in this region and they can do.
1350  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: July 02, 2023, 06:15:29 PM
Napoli hasn't made that much of a big move so far. Osimhen seems to be staying, Kim min Jae seems to be leaving soon, but that's about all that we are seeing at the moment. You guys think they can do it again? I mean I am not saying they are the best team right now, but they seemed like so great last season and if they can get a good defender again and reroll there is a potential that they can win it all over again.

The difference wasn't small, so even if they were just a bit worse, they would still be winning it comfortably and that looks possible at the moment. Of course they lost their manager for some weird reason, should have kept him, if they get a lot worse then I would guess it is not because of the players but because of manager change.
1351  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Predicting Sports Betting Future Trends and Technologies on: July 02, 2023, 05:05:32 PM
<snip>
Esports is currently a trend, right? In my opinion, traditional forms of betting, such as horse racing, won't be easily replaced. People still have an interest in these sports, although it has declined since the rise of other categories in online gambling.

On the other hand, I like the idea of blockchain gambling, but only if it is completely decentralized.
To be honest, horse racing is not really that popular worldwide, it is played in some specific countries and only a specific group of countries like the sport and also bet on it, on the other hand, eSports is a global trend, almost every single country has it and people from all around the world like eSports and the games and the players playing those games, so the craze for eSports is already higher than horse racing or any traditional sport of that nature.

So even though it doesn't necessarily have to replace horse racing or any other traditional sports, eSports is creating its place at the top along with football/soccer which is the most popular game when it comes to sports betting because of the craze people have for the game.

There are 3 potential strikers to be seen in the lineup of Chelsea now: Nkunku, Jackson and Lukaku. After the Jackson signing I started to believe in Lukaku's being sold this summer more than before. Jackson looks like a decent striker who came from Villarreal for a cheap price. He can play on both wings when there is need as well.

I think Nkunku will be the only forward in Pochettino's formation and Jackson will be his substitute. And Lukaku will say goodbye to the team sooner or later. Chelsea are in a rebuilding phase so still giving chances to Lukaku would be a huge mistake for them.
Pochettino is already working on his own formation and players which are going to help him for having better end of next season for the Chelsea right now Romeo Lukaku is having uncertainty on his future because Chelsea wants him to sell and Inter Milan is not having enough money to buy him on current price, and he is also already decline offer from the Saudi League which is surely not good response from his side because this was good for him, and he can do much better in this league which is surely going to help his career coming back on track for future.

But after this all what is going to happen nothing is clear, and we have to wait for the right time about his future and deal about him because Inter Milan is trying to have him on loan again and Chelsea is not agreed but most chances we will have something suitable for the all parties in coming days.

Sometimes I think it is incredible that Neymar still has a 60 million market value because no one is going to pay so much money for a player who is going to be injured most of the season. And the way Neymar is fouled most of the time it is very easy for him to get injured. But on the other hand, it is also true that when Neymar is healthy, he can contribute to the team in a way that a lot of other players, actually most other players cannot.

In the end, Neymar is a great player even to this day. But the problem is the coach is always going to be frustrated when a player like Neymar is not going to be available because of injury at the time of an important match.
Neymar Jr is one of the best athlete in soccer even he is one of the biggest failures after arriving from Barcelona in 2017 because PSG fails to have any big achievement outside France and player is also failed to win any big achievement which is now going to have big change because now in coming season we will have new PSG without any big star but in better shape and things will be also much better because we have a deal between PSG and Barcelona which is going to announce in coming days as he will be back in Barcelona and things will be also changed because after Messi exit we were expecting changes and now all is going to complete.

Few days back we have he is going to England but nothing positive happen, but now things already settled, and just one point is going to be fixed before this big announcement with now Neymar is again Barcelona player for the few years before going to end his career even now most chances he is not going to win anything big as player.
1354  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: July 02, 2023, 05:12:15 AM
From the start of this Saudi Arabian League signing spree of European veterans players , I know a day would come when they'll not just be luring the players that are 30+ but also very young players who still got a lot to achieve in their career.
The Saudi Arabian League wants to be enjoy the same limelight that European leagues are enjoying from all over the world and would definitely do anything within their reach to achieve that aim

But I can't imagine that that will ever happen unless the Saudi Arabian clubs or the owners are really pulling the trigger and keep up that investment for a decade and even raise it further. It is not enough to have good players for three or four years and only the older ones. Then they would have to keep spending those levels for a long time and sign players of all age groups to also cover all interest groups that could follow the league on TV and the Internet. Not everyone likes to watch players who are about to retire anyway. But signing younger players will be even more costly in the long run.
Currently, Saudi's are doing two things they are investing huge funds and their target is also long term because right now they are having first target for the 2030 world cup and if they fail to achieve this then surely they will try to achieve this for the 2034 world cup mean they are not in hurry and currently as they are recruiting players it's just for the well awareness about their league around the world and having too many famous players will also give them good return of their investment and also helpful for the having good return on this all.

After falling out for the one player quickly they are jumping for the second instead of having sad about first failure mean they already complete their homework and their influence and experience of having good time in Europe is also helpful for them in this all in near future they are going for the academies which are also going to have big impact and surely many youths are going to join which is also good investment for this project.

Zidane and Pep Guardiola have their own uniqueness, even though Zidane was able to win 3 Champions League trophies but he only got it with one team namely Real Madrid, unlike Pep Guardiola he was able to get it with two different teams namely Barcelona and Manchester City even though it took enough time long ago gave City its first Champions League title.

But Pep Guardiola is able to win domestic titles with three different teams at the moment compared to Zidane only winning with Real Madrid, Zidane is only a manager for one team for now and there is no chance for Zidane to return to being a coach in a different team. PGS rumor will sign Zidane have get Luis Henrique and looking Zidane back as manager next season seems not possible yet.
I completely agreed with these comments both are having own rich history and Guardiola is doing amazing job after having good mark at Barcelona, but Zidane is now having his own targets, and he wants to serve for the France national team and already refuse to join many big names specially Brazil National team job also refused by him is surprising but no one can talk about this as he wants to live just by his own and Guardiola is doing good as professional coach.

We can't compare many things between them because it's never been helpful all are doing jobs with their own strategy and understanding and never try to beat others just on statics recently we have too many noises about PSG and Zidane but at the end he completely rejected, and now Luis Henrique is on this job for the PSG challenge hopefully things will be good for the all in near future and dreams will be filled as well.
1356  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: July 01, 2023, 06:54:16 PM
Another hot news is Marcelo Brozovic, after being reportedly the two parties agreed with a salary of 25 million per season or 100 million for 3 seasons and Inter will get 23 million but lately Al Nassr changed the agreement with only willing to pay 13m + 2m bonuses, Inter rejected this new agreement and stop the transfer process. Until now there has been no latest news about Brozovic Transfer.
Unbelievable with Al Nassr failed for reaching agreement transfer fees to sign Marcelo Brozovic because Inter Milan not agree with 13 million euro due they want 23 million euro. Looks crazy with Al Nassr how possibility for transfer fees on 13 million euro because Marcelo Brozovic has best quality as midfielder. Inter Milan as 23 million euro and I don't think most expensive transfer fees depend on experienced and performance from Marcelo Brozovic.

Are there any indications from Cristiano Ronaldo that Marcelo Brozovic failed to join An Nassr next season? looks interested because Al Nassr can pay more expensive salary for their player but difficult with 23 million transfer fees for signing Marcelo Brozovic.
The deal is still not dead as Al-Nassr is still working on but here player's personal wish is also creating problems because Marcelo Brozovic wants to join Barcelona instead of this Saudi Club, so things are looking complicated, but hopefully things will be clear in the next few days €23 million is surely big amount for Inter Milan as now they are also working on their few other deals which needs amounts to settle in next few weeks.

With many other factors are also involved Marcelo Brozovic is good player, but he is not having mark as Cristiano Ronald, Messi and Karim Benzema so may just because of this Al-Nassr not hardly forced in this deal but as mentioned early most chances all will be clear in next few weeks because of Barcelona Involvement in this transfer deal because they are also strengthening their squad for the next season and wants to fix all problems.
1357  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bet on live game or while game hasn't started yet? on: July 01, 2023, 08:29:21 AM
Live betting can be so intense and at same time advantageous for the gambler as you have to make your decision on which side of the odds to bet for based on how the game is actually playing out Infront of you as you watch and you also needs to be very quick in deciding cause odds could change at any seconds.

I prefer to bet on live games when my staking power is high by reason of the odds size of the team that's leading in the game and it's when you have good amount to stake with that such small odds can give out a tangible profit. And live games if you really careful and patient to observe before placing a bet it is very hard to lose compared to betting when game hasn't started yet.
Though you are right that it somehow becomes easier to choose a side once you see how the game is going because it can clearly be seen which team is playing better and which one has better chances of winning, so you go ahead and place your bet based on that, it's important to keep an eye on the time because if you don't make it on time or if it gets late and a team takes a big lead, you might have to bet with very small odds.

But, one should also remember that at the end of the day, you can still lose the bet even if you have bet midway through the match, because in any sport, it doesn't take a lot of time for a game to turn, so it is always important that one makes bets with amounts that they can afford to lose.
1358  Economy / Gambling / Re: Enough to consider a casino scam? on: July 01, 2023, 06:12:23 AM
I think a gambler who doesn't care much about KYC is a gambler who just gambles for fun and doesn't think about making money out of gambling. They may never use big money, so they're not under the supervision of the casino, so the casino doesn't feel the need to ask them to do KYC. Also, sticking with the small money keeps them out of trouble because they don't chase after the win. But when they are required to do KYC, they may move to another casino that is less strict when it comes to KYC. This is why a gambler must choose a suitable casino for himself because everyone has their own standards.
There are only some casinos that don't ask their gamblers for KYC if they are not depositing, wagering, or withdrawing large amounts, because most of the platforms these days would ask you for it even if you are trying to withdraw $100 which isn't a big amount in my opinion. The reason behind that is that their licensing firms require them to do this to almost every single one of the customers and the casinos have to comply with that.

So those players who play just for fun will either have to find casinos that don't require KYC at all or won't ask for it unless there is big money involved, or simply comply with the KYC and AML rules and complete their KYC verification, they won't get in trouble anyway since they play with very small amounts.
1359  Economy / Gambling / Re: Loophole in stopping Money Laundering through Wagering on: June 30, 2023, 06:30:16 PM
How can consider that a loophole when you can clearly lose a bet with even 1.01x odds? This has happened a lot in the past, a guy even lost $1.4m in a single bet with 1.01x odds maybe because he had the same thought that he will never lose and will win some money and stop, but what happened was probably shocking for him and for us as well, losing $1.4m in a single bet isn't a joke even if you are a billionaire.

So, someone trying to place bets with his entire balance or maybe half of it using a 1.01x multiplier hoping he won't lose and quickly complete the wagering requirement is actually making a mistake, it is gambling and we all know that anything can happen in gambling, it's better to play it safe.
1360  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Banks offering investing in Bitcoin on: June 30, 2023, 12:53:00 PM
The very first thing that comes to my mind when I hear banks allowing their customers to make investments in Bitcoin through them is the taxation they want to put on them for doing so. They know that they can't tax everyone using centralized exchanges for buying and selling Bitcoins but if people use them as the intermediary for these sales and purchases, they can easily tax all the transactions going back and forth for Bitcoin buy and sells.

It is not something that would provide any benefits for the customers of the banks, though it will be promoted this way, we should know that they are implementing this for their own benefit, banks were never created to provide benefits to us but they use us to create revenue for their business.
