They say that Manchester did not deserve fully the win but I think in the end it is not important who create more chances in the game and who keeps playing better,important is which of the team nets the three points from every single game.It is a good start for Manchester United to get the three points as it gives the team a sense of confidence in the upcoming encounters and honestly I liked they way they played yesterday night despite many people saying they did not play that well,let's not forget it was the first game of the tournament and most likely they played cautiously in order to get the 3 points in the end.

Talking about playing sneaky or cheating in gambling, I honestly immediately wondered in my mind how to do it? Moreover, it is done in an online casino, is there a kind of hack or something else? I never thought about it before, because even if we can do it, I think the casino will first know and detect that we are cheating in their game, and as a result it can have an impact on permanent account suspension.

The ability to analyze can only be done in certain gambling, like sportsbets for example, and for games like slots I don't think it works.
I think it's more about either hacking, finding a loop, or even using others as well. There are a few methods but all of them are known and I think it is going to be something that would be simple to recognize and thats why there are a lot of people who end up getting caught and they come here to complain. They keep talking about how they were right to get their money but then it is proven by the casinos that they just cheated and that turns out to be the issue.

I think it's quite important to realize that we can't do anything cheeky and end up seeing any love from the casino. If you are not following the rules then you are not going to end up with anything good and the casino will eventually catch you and take all your money.

That is true for most reputable and casinos who have a lot of budget.There was a case here which I don't remember the thread that some guy had found a bug in a slot provider,they didn't say which slot provider but I can say it quite confidently that most likely it has been Bgaming as this provider had the most hacks and loopholes compared to most other providers.To make a long story short some guy withdrew a huge amount and some other guy told them that he had found a loophole and wanted a bounty for finding this bug which he never got and most Bgaming slots were put into maintenance mode.The casino where it happened is not one with a huge budget.

My point is that loopholes will always be found but it is the duty of the provider and the casino to conduct regular maintenance checks to avoid such situations.

The saving and investment is the best option for the long term.But if you are gambler and having gambling habit,you never stop it at any age.The good gamblers will do gambling with discipline and periodic manner.The gambler use all this two option for their long term profit,the first one is they gamble and store the profit in separate wallet for their future.Saving your profit in terms of cryptocurrency is most important one.Because the holding may double in some years using the cryptocurrency savings.The investment of fifty percentage of the saving is good option.So the saving and investment will handle some of the future loss from the gambling.This allow the gambler to have fun in longer period as compared to unplanned gambler.

Yes, but if you keep gambling for a long time, eventually all your money will be lost in the gambling activities.

There's no real savings when you are gambling, you are just winning and losing, and overall losing a bit more, so expected return is negative.

If you keep playing and not to look back, then it's true that all of that money is in your hands, even you manage to win, some will return
and lose to the house eventually.

There's nothing you can do if you are unable to control your greed. Addiction is what really affects your
decision making, instead of stopping you, keep trying to win for more. A kind of greed that being developed
from time to time of your gambling participations.

The problem is that in the middle of a gambling session there are many feelings that go through the gambler body and spirit with of course the greed being the predominant one especially when you are losing more than when you are winning.The cases of greed when you are losing are much more difficult to handle as you try to win back your money and chase loses and we know that when everyone does that it means that most likely will lose more and more money as chasing loses brings only more loses.

When winning sure there are some people,I would call them the worse as their greed tells them to keep going and they think they will be rich overnight and these people also lose all of their money but there are some people that call back to reason when they are winning and stop and withdraw the money,these are the only smart gamblers.

You'll always have that first time fright as a new gambler in the game... It's nothing really strange; only that it's actually the border-line between you getting addicted to the game and playing for fun...
Well, that's what has always been guiding so many gamblers as you'll see no essence of playing when you lose too much to the game...(afterall, it's only the urge of addiction that depicts the picture in every gambler's mind to keep wagering)..
I don't advise anyone to wager on slots as that's just gonna end you up in a low-life; I'd bet you don't wanna experience that.

Sandra 🧑‍🦰

In theory every gambler knows that.They know that games like slot machines are programmed to make profit to the casino in the long run thanks to the house edge which is put in place exactly for this.Yet the excitement people see in different media and mostly in streaming services of hitting that max win in an instant is what keeps gamblers coming back to playing slot machines,not for nothing the slot machines are the most played game in every casino and the biggest revenue providers to the casino.Of course I agree though,there is no point in continue wagering when it is clear that you are in a losing session.

Two weeks left before window transfer closing, Real Madrid still not found for Karim Benzema position after departure to Saudi Pro League teams Al Ittihad, Joselu still not the first choose for Carlo Ancelotti and he got ten minutes for first match against Athletic Bilbao in La Liga. Real Madrid target Mbappe looks have good relation with PSG and return to main squad after withdrew on first match against Lorient and difficult for signing him in this summer window transfer.

I think Real Madrid need new striker depend on competition joining from La Liga, UEFA Champion League and Copa del Rey is not enough with only one striker right now, need back up when Joselu or Rodrygo get suspend or injury and actually Rodrygo is not real as center forward and most playing as winger.

I imagined that Karim Benzema would go there, all the very good players at the end of their career go there to spend their last few years overpaid in a not very competitive league. There is, the old stars can thus show some more numbers. Real Madrid have not found a serious replacement: very bad

Real Madrid has another couple of weeks as possibility for transferring new players,especially they are lacking in attack and midfield as with what players they have now chances are very high that they will be eliminated at best right after the group stage if not directly in the group stage if they are in a group with strong teams like Manchester City,Bayern Munchen and some other team,they are gambling this season with this behavior,in fact they should have already brought in replacement for Benzema as with the money they got from selling him I am sure they could have afforded Harry Kane.Now Kane most likely will go to Bayern Munchen,what a pity this Real so far.

I think Braga was a bit tired from the Champions League game no matter that they won it 3-0 the first leg and most probably they are already looking up in the return leg which will be played exactly today so most likely they conserved their forces for this encounter which is extremely important for them as if they qualify which most likely they will do they will go directly in the group stages of the Champions League and this will be a huge achievement for them and that is why I don't consider the first game lost at  home from Braga as a huge surprise result,sure it is a surprise result but not that big of a surprise.

The only game which resembles somewhat this type of game if I understood correctly is Coin Flip which honestly not many casinos have it,they have the dice game which can also be considered somewhat similar.In my country these type of games that were playing on the street and with money was the one where they hide the coin in three different cups and the guy operating the cups was asking you where is hidden the coin,if you find it correctly you win money and if not you lose the bet,many people become addicted to this up to a level that even people killed each other from the rage and at that moment the police intervened and these games are not allowed since 1992 if I recall correctly.

Congratulations to colorpoll for winning the first yellow cap of the season,he also as far as I know set an absolute new record in points in a single week with 10 games as I have never seen before such results.If he continues with this performance it means that the first place most likely will be a distant dream for all of us  Grin.Nevertheless if he got a lot of points from the draws of Sunday this is a double edged sword and in the long run it can turn against the user,draws are very difficult to come by in a league like this one.
2269  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: August 14, 2023, 03:24:59 PM
PSG started the league losing points because they couldn't solve their internal problems. Especially the problem between Mbappe and the club has the potential to affect the team negatively. Actually, against Lorient, they played superior from the beginning to the end but they couldn't score. Ramos, Lee and Asensio replaced Mbappe, Messi and Neymar in their first league game this season. In fact, it must be admitted that PSG turn into an ordinary team when Mbappe, Messi and Neymar are not on the pitch. However, the new transfers also gave hope for the future.

I think it was their fault together with a lot of bad luck as they created a whopping 22 chances and it shows clearly that if any team in this case like Lorient parks the bus now PSG will have a lot of difficulties winning games.Imagine if a bunch of other teams starts behaving the same as Lorient it can cause some serious problems to PSG.Meanwhile teams like Monaco continued where they left off and some other teams performing still well,I think based on the first game where we clearly see that without Neymar,Messi and Mbappe PSG will struggle a lot to get to the results they used to get here in the last years.

Gambling most times are hardly to be controlled despite implementing all that you have expressed above, most times it depends on the individual reasoning and way of taking gambling into heart. Sometimes people sees it as an opportunity to become rich so, no matter any circumstances they must gambling to see either of could be any possibility to strike a common winning and that alone could be a life changing opportunity, so that believed something positive coming very sooner.

That is the problem,the adrenaline we get before rushing to gamble after a hard day of work where a lot of stress may have been present makes it difficult for most people to judge cold headed and usually we continue with our misjudgment that we will win this time and our life will change for the better,it is this what keeps most people coming back and also me.

I have tried to spend the money allocated for gambling otherwise,I buy cryptocurrencies now and so far in these 3 weeks I have been gambling free and love when I see my wallet balance growing,different from gambling my balance only grows this way so I suggest this to anyone who want to stop gambling.
2271  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: August 14, 2023, 01:27:04 PM
Manchester United lately have won every game against Wolves so it should be only natural for most of us to expect a win tonight from Manchester United.I only hope they don't screw up like they did in the beginning of last season where they started with a 0-4 lost game to Brighton which left all of us super surprised,so this is Premier League and these kind of things can happen here and in fact surprise results happen all the time.The good thing though is that usually through the Monday night games and I am talking about last season we can count surprise results with the finger of one hand meaning most games have ended as predicted.

One guy I like from this streamers is called Random Michael (I am in no way affiliated with him) but I love the way he feels every single spin and it looks to me that it is not paid by the casino although he also the first thing starting the videos ask for subscription and promo codes.Maybe I like him because he plays a lot my favorite slot which is Big Bass Amazon extreme and he has gone even for max win one time after playing it several times or very near the max win with a relevant substantial bet.

Are you referring to this guy https://youtu.be/By7duFHbgpE? How can I unheard his voice become he sounds like super mario and it’s a little bit irritating when he keeps repeating same statement when he gets excited.  Cheesy

I believe his game is legit since he started from small and slowly increases his bankroll right after he hits max win. His emotion is very legit even with just small amount jackpot unlike other streamers that winning million dollars. His voice keeps running now in my head.

It is exactly him and I love his voice when he sees that he is not going further in the bonus round in Big Bass Amazon Extreme and he has somewhat Italian descents I must assume because I think he speaks in these moments in some sort of Italian dialect.

I have his voice in my head since the very first time I saw him playing but it is exactly that and the way how he feels the game that he stands out from the other streamers,the others look like they are forcing their emotions while this one is 100% natural.

@mu_enrico or fellow members,

I would like to inquire about Live RTP. During my active playing slots, I haven't been paying much attention to it. However, I recently came across a comment by one of the forum members. unfortunately, I can't remember the specific thread. The comment mentioned like this: on WEB A, there is Live RTP information available for checking. So, I registered on the site and confirmed the presence of such information. My question is,  Does the Live RTP information on website A align with other websites featuring the same provider and listed games?

I appreciate any insights or information you can provide regarding this matter.  Wink

The live RTP Is specific for that slot in the specific casino where you have seen it.Every casino have a different implementation of the live RTP and beside that only very few of the casinos give you this indispensable valuable information.
I say so because when a slot shows you that in last 24 hours the machine have given over 184% but weekly 90% and monthly 60% it means that most likely the machine will keep giving to come near the presented RTP (not live one) of 96% which is a common RTP from many slot providers.

Till today, I have had some losses and also some fine hits, what about you guys? Do you have any Slots spinning story to share? I'm sure some people are more lucky than many others.
It's the same story of mind, I got wins and losses also. Well, that is expected in gambling, we can't be all the time have luck, we also have dark days. That is why I don't encourage people to gamble their hard-earned money thinking that it multiplies in gambling because we never know if we are too lucky that time or have been a loser. It is better to enjoy gambling and make the wins surprise us because based on my experience, it was hard to win when I already think about it before putting my bet.

If we think about the possibility of increasing our money through gambling and multiplying them with a huge amount we do not go and gamble at all as we know our chances are extremely slim.We don't think and reason ourselves before jumping into gambling and that is what is called just like this thread title here,the slots fever,the adrenaline rushes up,dopamine explodes in the moments before you gamble as you feel really good and even in the beginning of the session you still have these feelings which are great,the only problem is these are substituted with sadness,rage and misjudgment.

So for people who love some adrenaline they will gamble and for people who are more pragmatic they will think a lot before starting to gamble.
2276  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Healthy mindset to save earnings from gambling on: August 14, 2023, 11:12:23 AM

Gamblers suffer more defeats than wins, not because those who lose never win, but the money earned from wins is never saved to make good management.


I agree that the gamblers suffer more defeat than win but that doesn't mean there are no gamblers who have managed their winning very well and made judicious investment with them. The challenge addict gamblers have is that they go back staking when they have made huge jackpot instead of taking a break but if they have someone close who is able to have financial influence over them, they make good management of it. The wife for example who knows that the husband is a chronic addict, he tries to help him save and invest at the time he wins. Of course we know that those who are addict most times are free with money when they hit jackpot so in such cases those close to them do help them in investment incase of scarcity.

Good point, if they are open with their gambling activities and they are trusting someone close to them to manage their finances that kind of mentality will allow them to make some additional diversions with the money that they won from gambling, though in terms of gambling addicted people that kind of things is hard to pursue as mentioned, they more on keep pushing and trying to win more and end it up losing everything back to the house.

If they don't have such control, meaning to say that they will not think about other things than to keep betting and trying more and the outcome will be the same, losing and regretting why they keep pushing for more.

The persons can also try to do it themselves without involving a friend or relative,I mean the process of diversifying the money,I have started only recently to invest every week part of my weekly salary into buying cryptocurrencies in which I believe in the long term rather than throwing them away into gambling.If I keep doing this every week I would have accumulated a really nice stash of these cryptocurrencies when the time come in the next bull run which can be as early as next year but most probably in 2025.

This also can serve as a purpose as every time we want to get into gambling again we open up our wallet,have a look at our balance and say to ourselves,if I gamble I risk to lose all of this,so it can act as a detainee for our greed.
2277  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Advice when you are going a bit far in gaming and betting on: August 14, 2023, 10:20:48 AM
You need to have a lot of self-discipline to play gambling games otherwise you are a loser from the start. Otherwise, you'll want more and more, and that's an addiction. When someone is addicted, these tips will not help much, because then the addict will do everything to keep playing.

The problem is that self discipline cannot be learned just like that,in theory we all have self discipline but when it comes to applying it most of us are driven by the rage and greed and not the logic which is nearer to self control and self discipline.That is why we have several addicted gamblers nowadays because they have lost this sense and self control nowadays can only be learned the hard way,one should have a really big lose impacting his financial status which will in turn make him think more cold headed and will definitely lead to self discipline in the long time.

2) Spinning it together will increase the odds of hitting better rewards.
This is not true. It doesn't make any difference whether you play 100 spins at the same time or you play 1 spin daily for 100 days.
Take note that every time you play the wheel of fortune, the outcome is determined through some mathematical calculations and they are completely independent from each other. 

I think that is right but what is also right is that when you hit 100 spins in an instant of course it gives you a much better pleasure rather than spinning 1 spin each day,there is no mathematical calculation that can take this joy from us  Grin and maybe we get lucky as the more spins the more chances.I know each spin is independent from each other but that false feeling of hope for us mere humans who do not believe that much in mathematics (otherwise I would have been rich and not gambling my money) is great to have and it keeps us going.
2279  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Healthy mindset to save earnings from gambling on: August 14, 2023, 08:10:33 AM
the most important thing here, though, is to forget about gambling for a while and access it only during work holidays. Its better when you come home from work, its better not to access or go to the casino. because the initial goal was to forget about gambling, so it was in vain that we went from morning to evening to forget about gambling, but in the end we also gambled when we got home.

After coming from work most of us are tired and I donot think your mood will be to gamble. You would want to sit and relax with our favourite beverage. Generally most working professionals for this same routine. They generally gamble on weekends when you have nothing for entertainment. I personally prefer sports betting as in the weekends we have more scheduled games than the weekdays. For casual entertainment casinos are good but it can give you axiety occassionally.

I think that gambling does not need any mood.For most of us who are employed like you are referring,we also are not happy with our pay rates and salaries unless we are making six figures yearly,that would be a good pay for stopping gambling activities but since most of us get lower than that then every motivation to win money directly puts us in the mood for achieving this,the easiest way being to gamble.This is a big risk if we cannot control our emotions as what starts as a desire to win more money because we are not getting paid the amount we want can escalate our situation even further for the worse if we keep doing this.Best thing to do in this scenario is to invest the money into some side business (I mean buying crypto and hodling or trading it).

That's why Al Khelaïfi doesn't want to give Mbappe to Real Madrid because they know a player Mbappe is a great investment for any team and he can play in the team for years while if he joins Real Madrid he can definitely make this team stronger and if we imagine Real Madrid playing against PSG in Champions League one day, this can be own goal if they let him join Real Madrid. That's one reason for them to keep this player under pressure to extend his contract.

No matter how much pressure is put on Mbappe to extend his contract, Mbappe has clearly refused to extend his contract. Real Madrid is already a strong team then if Mbappe joins Real Madrid then Real Madrid will become an even stronger team. I think PSG won't let Mbappe go to Real Madrid as PSG has a match against Real Madrid next season, this is not the main reason to stop Mbappe from changing clubs, the main reason to stop Mbappe is that if Mbappe leaves, maybe a star like him will never be in PSG again. It is not possible to take and another reason is that if Mbappe changes the team as a free agent member, PSG will not be able to gain a single penny from Mbappe's club change. Basically, considering these two reasons, PSG is still offering to extend the contract with Mbappe.
Mbappe's decision to reject the contract extension I think was a good decision, yes even though it led to some drama that happened as we see now. I actually wanted to see him do that last season, where he canceled joining Real Madrid, I mean, if only he chose Real Madrid then and did not choose money, then the situation would be different now.
Now he has to stay longer, considering his contract is about to expire. He has to be more patient with the drama that's going on, with the news that he's not going to be in the squad, and other news that's not good about him.

He should have accepted to be going on loan to Chelsea for one year,the coach is the same which was at PSG before so I am sure he would have grown a lot there.In fact I think Chelsea management should push now to get him even on loan into the squad,Chelsea played very well yesterday in Premier League and I am sure getting a player like Mbappe can give a huge boost to them,they can even start and fighting for the title in Premier League where as in getting in the Champions next season is a sure thing with him as a player.
