I think that this second round made the pool even more beautiful,just 6 points difference in near 20 places excluding the first place which is 8 points ahead,still distances that are easily recovered if we keep playing consistently with 13-15 points for a single round.

Chelsea was the biggest surprise for me yesterday as it was a completely different Chelsea team than the one we saw against Liverpool in the first week of the season.Let's see what Arsenal can make tonight but I think most likely it will be an easy win for them.

It is true that all of us have to be careful in taking steps or making decisions, even in gambling if someone is not careful in making a plan then it is very likely that problems will come to him (the gamblers). if we are not equipped with knowledge in gambling then in my opinion it will be very difficult for someone to win, therefore we must always study and understand each of these bets so that we don't lose money.

That is an over optimistic thinking as if we think that if we analyze or study the bets so we will not lose money then the casinos would cease to exist.If you are referring to sport betting no matter how good one maybe at analyzing things like team squad,injuries,which player will play and if he has seen lots of games of such team in TV still is not enough to keep making winning bets consistently,sometimes or better a lot of times the referees will screw your bets up.Let's not talk about luck games then as they all depend on luck so there is nothing we can take care of except setting a predefined bankroll,money we can afford to lose and play only that.

Juventus starting with a big right foot I say because Udinese has been like a black cat to Juventus holding Juventus back several times this encounter has ended in a draw before.This time Juventus is winning 0-3 already in the first half by dominating completely the game,as I said it won't be a walk in the park for Napoli anymore as from what I am seeing the strong teams are all performing well while Lazio is also winning their game against Lecce.This time the Serie A is going to be very interesting and most likely will be decided by the encounters of strong teams against each other like it used to be for many years here.

Another win for Bagnaia, at this point, am pretty confident in saying that he can only lose this title.

I agree now.He has the best bike and if he rides well and become a conservative rider thinking only about winning the title and not risking in races we can clearly say that only he can lose this title.Yet when I remember how many crashes he had during these last 2 years I can also say without a doubt that he is not at all a conservative rider,he likes to win races and even when he does not need to race hard he goes and does just that he fights hard for victory.At this point since there is no real competition to him because he has the best bike I agree he is the only one to lose this title.

I think what Messi has achieved with Inter Miami is remarkable,some may say that this league is easier than the European Leagues he used to play before but I will say that still scoring 10 goals in just 7 games and scoring quite some beautiful goals means that Messi has returned to good football.At this point I have no doubt that most likely Inter Miami is going to win the title there in the MLS while I think PSG is a long gone forgotten memory by Messi.Of course his family feels better too in USA as USA is North America and they come from South America so most likely the lifestyle difference is not that big especially in Miami which is populated by South Americans a lot.

I would consider Chelsea result a really big surprise so far considering how good they played in the first game at home against Liverpool.I think they are still a new team considering that Pochettino had time but most probably not enough to make them a stable team yet and the fact that they did not win against 10 players West Ham shows that they wanted badly to win and played in a chaotic way desperately trying to win while giving West Ham chances that unfortunately for Chelsea they were converted to goals.

I have said several times that this time won't be easy for Napoli despite they starting with the right foot as most other teams will most probably win their games beside Inter who made a great game yesterday night.I think these other strong teams have improved a lot compared to the last season where Napoli got away and won the Serie A several weeks before the end of the tournament,I know for sure this won't happen this time as rarely I have seen Serie A being dominated by a single team in such distance,I know it won't be boring this time.
2208  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What micro games is best for you? on: August 20, 2023, 02:00:10 PM
By my definition of micro games, It’s a game that let you bet small amount such as penny that has an option to scale up slowly.

I play slots, mines, dice and live game show. What I really like the most in terms of return is slow games because it can give you a possibility of high return on small bet in random manner unlike dice and mines that you need to setup the difficulty just to have a chance to get that target huge profit.

What micro games works well on your gambling style?


I think they are good games but what I do in micro gaming I go and play slot machines and use the minimum bet of 100 IDR which is something along the 0.01 dollar or 0.015 dollar max so in this way I do the same as you with those games only I expect to hit the max win for example of x10.000 by playing longer and hoping to have luck during the bonus games.I have played plinko before and I must say you can play at even lower bets in plinko and still build up your balance,I remember playing with very little Litecoin as a minimum bet and playing like 100 balls at once and it was fun,so yeah micro gaming gives people with low balance a chance.
2209  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Success or Fail? - Talking about Gambling as a major income on: August 20, 2023, 01:34:11 PM
I don’t need to argue with this as most those who venture into gambling as their major income end up failing and not succeeding. Because in any investment or gambling activity, once you put pressure into it, you’ll be constantly bothered and won’t have time to focus anymore, which will make you more susceptible to losses in the end.

This is probably the reason why gambling should never be seen as a major source of income. It’s not only unreliable, but seeing a lot of events become unpredicted in gambling, then it’s too dangerous to put high hopes that gambling will definitely be the one to put food on the table.
Profession really matters in the race to break free from financial limitations and struggles. We ought to keep in mind to always be in pursuit of the good lifestyle, not extravagant. Losses and profits are generated from gambling, and it takes so much from us before we would even realized. It's impossible to make gambling as a streams of earning income, it can preferably be used to gain extra changes not the main source. Gambling on games can be volatile just as bitcoin in trading, making the comparison it's slightly the same. Depending on gambling as a means of income, it's absolutely risky because gambling is 100% unreliable.

I think that profession does not matter that much but the desire to break free from financial robbery or what we know as the 9-5 dead end rat race is what can make us stop gambling and focus our efforts in different venues to try and build up something good for ourselves.Of course if we use gambling only to get that huge win which can facilitate us this change and focus us toward this new goal it is great,what is not great is to know before hand that gambling in most times will drain our money and thus making our journey longer to our new focus.

For me we had a surprise yesterday as Dinamo Zagreb is out of the group stages of the Champions League,they were eliminated by AEK Athens while they were leading comfortaby 0-2 most of the game and they lost it all in the last 10 minutes which by the way were additional added time so they got punished in the last minutes of the game,something very uncommon for a team of the level of Dinamo Zagreb.We are used to see them almost every year in the group stages and I think that because of that the result of yesterday game was a surprise.Congrats to AEK though.
Football is a sport that has many surprises and there are even lots of unexpected things to happen where the final result may not match expectations, especially since this is the Champions League, which is the target or desire for all clubs to have a title here.
If you think about it and look at the qualifying matches that have been carried out, Dinamo Zagreb looks strong enough to be able to qualify for the Champions League, but in reality they have to lose their place just because they were defeated by AEK on aggregate from both Legs 3 - 4.
Now AEK has a slightly safer place in the Champions League and for the next play-off match they will meet Antwerp and this will be a slightly difficult match for AEK.

I think Antwerp lacks the experience compared to AEK and deep down I think Dinamo Zagreb is a much stronger team when we compare the two teams together so in this regard AEK is very lucky to have an encounter with a team from the Belgian league that lacks the experience in such a high performing competition.I personally think will bet on AEK to qualify as no matter what happens in the first game in Belgium I know the fans of AEK are on fire when they are playing at home so most likely they will qualify to the group stages.

I'm Austrian and if I'm honest, I'm happy if Marquez doesn't come to KTM, for me personally he doesn't fit in with the team, and in terms of salary he's just too expensive.

I know he is extremely expensive but don't you think that having him as a rider can give that needed boost to KTM to come out as a winner,something they are in here in the MotoGP from sometime and so far they have not won any title,he as a rider if he harmonize himself well with the bike is one of the few of the riders that can give you the world title.Otherwise KTM will keep being a normal/mediocre brand in the MotoGP and this is worse even if you will save money compared to having a rider winning races for you.I am strongly in favor sometime now KTM gets a super nice rider and Marquez is the one.

Xavi was very confident that he can bringing Barcelona to earn 3 points from Cadiz although in the first match Barcelona get unsatisfactory results because they only can playing draw from Getafe but Xavi said it will have no affect for the performance of Barcelona later but their opponent also in the good shape because in the first match Cadiz was successfully to overcomes Alaves with slim score 1-0

Cadiz indeed is not strong team and they also had poor records while met Barcelona but i think Barcelona have to be careful because sometimes Cadiz can able to performing well and make big team to get in trouble especially i have seen the performance of Barcelona main striker Lewandowski still haven't reach to his top performance so Barcelona should be more focus for this match especially their rival Real Madrid performance is more better than them so Barcelona shouldn't be losing points anymore if they want to pursuing Real Madrid

Well there should be no problems in securing a convincing victory tonight at home for Barcelona.They are a strong team and I think the fact that they did not won the first game was because of their players becoming somewhat self complacent and underestimating their opponents.I am sure now that they see the results of what happened next and that Real Madrid is moving away,all Barcelona players I am sure now will come down in the field with a burning desire to win the game and I think they will win it with a big result,something along 3-0 or more goals scored.

2214  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Typical scenario when you are losing on: August 20, 2023, 09:56:14 AM
Based on my experience i don't gamble when I feel not well or in the mood because this affects my decision-making to play, something I get greedy and just keep ignoring the number of money I deposit and keep playing in the casino, this kinda bit bad habit reason why I rarely now to play gambling. How much did you play for your gambling activity and are you a daily player or just casual if you have time?.

Everybody has their own habits and most of the listed scenarios are well known to be losing ones.The reason people keep coming back and forgetting these scenarios is that before coming back they somewhat dream or are optimistic that they will win it big in this upcoming session they are about to play.As they say hope is what keep people going and without hope our life would be extremely boring so even in gambling activities hope for a huge profit is what keeps people coming back and repeating these well known scenarios.
2215  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: August 20, 2023, 06:58:18 AM
In the French Soccer League Toulouse vs PSG two-team match, many games were played before halftime. However, neither team could score a goal before halftime. The players of both teams tried hard to score. However, after halftime, the players of both teams scored 1 goal each. In the match  Neither team could win. After watching the PSG team play I thought maybe PSG team will play well and win the match but due to their poor performance they did not win the match they drew and shared the points.
PSG are having problems up front. in that match there were many chances, they controlled the ball. but they always failed in the final settlement. their midfield dominates, they are quite strong there. but Mbappe's absence seems to be felt by PSG's reduced strength in attack.
PSG got unsatisfactory results in their first 2 matches.

It shows that PSG is not the same team it was when they had the best players as just a couple of them cannot finalize many scoring opportunities,it is a different team from the time they had quite some super star players in the team,they were different when Cavani,Ramos,Neymar,Di Maria were all playing together,at that time the difference with other teams was really big,now it is clear that relying only on Mbappe which came in the second half is not enough to dominate the Ligue 1 anymore.
2216  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: August 20, 2023, 06:34:15 AM
I think we saw how good Newcastle United are in this match. I can say that they played a better match against Manchester City than I expected. Newcastle lost 3 points in this match and it's sad for them of course but losing by Manchester City wouldn't be a big deal because right now they are the team with the biggest title contender in the Premier League.
Etihad Stadium is turning into a fortresses. This Man City squad is on fire, picking up right where they stopped last season. Despite missing several key players, Manchester City keeps pushing forward. Pep's team is determined to defend its title. I have to admit, Newcastle did a good job by only conceding one goal against City. Not everyone gets the opportunity as they've held off the treble winners.
Newcastle is still losing against city even with a small margin. Gvardiol, kovacic and fooden have been showing impressive performances. Haaland was not able exploring the chance of scoring more goals without KDB. The major problem is KDB was always become the player that was supplying a good pass for haaland. Haaland's performance is quite inconsistent at this moment. My applause was going for alvarez. There are two different things between haaland and alvarez. Haaland is good at finishing, but alvarez has more than it.
Alvarez has a very good dribbling success compared with haaland and he could also score the goal from various sides. He is such an underrated striker at this moment.
I must be honest if alvarez can become a key player for manchester city this season. His performance is always growing even better than before.

I am surprised at Newcastle only one shot on goal during the whole game as they came here from a crushing victory 5-1 against Everton in the first game of the season.Maybe Newcastle tried to defend and to get one point here as they knew they were playing against the strongest team in the Premier League while Manchester City on the other hand did their game and won 1-0,the important for them were the three points which they got and are now at the top of the table.
I think Haaland needs a bit more games to be in full power when it comes to scoring goals,we will see him score a lot of them throughout the tournament.

Time after time I can say Leverkusen is getting progress and they can even have better performance with their coach Xabi Alonso if they could buy some players in this transfer window to improve their team and invest some money while they could not and hire many players but I still think Xabi Alonso can be the reason for them to even get the ticket for champions league in the next of season for another time.
Leverkusen made a good job winning vs Leipzig which started their season by defeating Bayern in SuperCup with 3 goals to 0! Now they lost 2 - 3 vs Leverkusen.
For the other top teams that played today, there is Dortmund, Freiburg and Wolfsburg that won their matches. For M'Gladbach they failed to get more than 1 point vs Augsburg. M'Gladbach doesn't seem willing to improve.
I'm sure Xabi Alonso will make Leverkusen appear stronger this season. The first match this season, where Leverkusen won against Leipzig, made their run look quite perfect in the first game.

I think Leverkusen will be able to provide strong competition for other big teams like Bayern Munich and Dortmund. This victory was also warmly welcomed by Xabi Alonso because he considered that his foster children performed as he expected, namely to win 3 points

It looks like so.Leverkussen got the three points against one of the teams who lately has been fighting for the title and they won at home with a difficult result of 3-2 for them.It means that there were a good fight on going as there were a lot of goals scored.I think that maybe this time Leverkussen put up a great fight in the title race like they used to do in the years 2000 where they even were at the final of the Champions League against Bayern Munchen.

Dortmund won barely 1-0 and it is natural for them,they have still the shock of last year last game where they lost the title in front of their home fans.

PSG's victory in sight had to be broken up after Toulouse equalized in the final minutes of the game. As we can see, PSG has quite a hard time playing with their new squad and they seem to have lost concentration. Kylian Mbappe entered in the second half after replacing Lee Kang-In and also scored a goal for PSG's advantage via a penalty. But after that PSG was dull again and confused enough to widen the gap. Toulouse finally did the same for PSG by scoring a penalty kick. Not a good result for PSG, they got a draw again.

As I said I have always bad luck when it comes to gambling,in fact extremely bad luck I would consider since I was only waiting for them to win me a parlay with 9 games with relatively low odds yet they failed me once again.They are doing really bad in my honest opinion and if they get in the third round another draw or lost game the Ligue 1 most likely is not going to be won by them during this year.

I never seem to learn from my mistakes as for tomorrow I put Lille in another parlay and I am afraid they will make a surprise result too although they should take advantage from this error PSG made and win their game,the first game at home while they got a good result in the first week after equalizing against Nice away from home.
2219  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What you will do? on: August 19, 2023, 09:00:41 PM
I picked lowering the amount to bet because it might mean that someone is betting an amount that hurts when someone keeps losing. For me this is the number 1 rule in gambling, bet only amounts you can afford to lose. There are no wrong answers in the choices so it is okay to try them all. I also did them all before. There is no harm in trying and experiencing them all if we felt bored or annoyed by the continuous losing streaks. After all, we all have different styles of gambling so maybe the other choices work for someone but not for other gamblers.

I always bet on a minimum bet so I don't have a chance to lower my bet.  It is either I change my games or take a break from gambling. I often choos the first one, changing games but when I still failed to win and my losses continues,  I opt to take a break thinking that luck is not around and I have to stop for sometimes to trigger the returnees luck.(though this one is a fallacy but it happens that I got a win often times after taking some break).

I have also played and almost always play with the lowest bet but the fact is that only when I have increased the bet I have won substantial amounts of money and I only play with a higher bet after I have won something from the lower bet.The fact is that even when you change games as you say if it is a bad session it will continue to be a bad one.I never have found to get a winning session after I have changed games and even slot provider,the same has continued so the best thing to do is to take a break from gambling when such things happen.

PSG is not doing well at all in the first two weeks of the tournament.I know there is still time for them to score but I doubt they will score as I am waiting only them to win a nice parlay with odds over 16 in total and usually I have extremely bad luck in gambling.Jokes aside they are not winning despite dominating the game against Toulouse until the 60th minute which is being played now and if they keep leaving points like this it may be a clear indicator PSG is not at the same level where they were these last years where they won the Ligue 1 title year after year.
