It's great to see Hamilton still pumped up to compete and chase his eighth title. Even though Max and RBR are dominating right now, it seems that Hamilton is still confident and still believes that there is a chance for him to get his eighth world title.
But from the news I heard that Ferrari is currently approaching him to be able to bring him to the Ferrari team and become Charles's teammate. Even Ferrari are ready to give £ 40m for Hamilton to join their team. But I think Hamilton seems to have rejected this offer because he still believes in what Mercedes is doing, maybe until he can get his eighth world title he will stay at Mercedes, or not(?)
@retreat I feel that Hamilton should move on from Mercedes because I sincerely doubt that he can win the record 8th title while racing with Mercedes and with Ferrari he’ll have a better chance. Also I’m surprised that he’s yet keen to race for few more year’s because he’s not performing that well and he could yet retire before constantly losing out to other driver’s and spoiling his reputation of being a serial winner. Maybe Hamilton has his own thoughts and believes that Toto Wolff will be able to make Mercedes a competitive team and be able to fight against the domination of RBR. Moreover, Hamilton and Mercedes are very close and Hamilton is quite comfortable in the team. Even when Toto Wolff didn't bring major upgrades to Mercedes, Hamilton still remained loyal and still believed that he would be able to get his eighth world champion title with Mercedes, this proves how Hamilton is very confident in his team. Confidence alone without much performance upgrade won't bring him anywhere though.So I think he should start thinking seriously of finding a team well capable of delivering in the next 2-3 years or otherwise he may as well forget that 8th title which if he happen to not win it,it will make F1 even more intriguing having two drivers with 7 title each as the best. Can Verstappen make a good advantage of Redbull hegemony and win every Championship now that he is still very young of age so he can may be the first driver with 8 titles,surely his talent is well enough to bring him these titles,let's see how it unfolds. |

I concede, you got me, you're absolutely correct! I said that Ukraine did it, but Ukraine is a country and as such technically unable to perform terrorism, which only humans are capable of doing.
You seem to be enormously agitated by this pipeline that was made useless by your glorious leader long before it was damaged. What happened to the whole "let Europe freeze" strategy? Anyways, even if "Ukraine" had done it, how the fuck would it be terrorism if they're at war with Putinstan... are we still pretending that it's just a "special operation" and it's super unfair for the special operators to suffer any consequences? That is funny.The terrorists are yelling,look out,terrorist attacks against our country.As Zelensky said,the war will come to Russia,especially to those parts supporting the unprovoked illegal war at the maximum and it has started yesterday with a boom in that optical factory,of course the Russians said it was the boiler room taking fire but Ukraine presidential advisor said from the images and videos shown it does not look like it was the pyrotechnics who got fire claiming may be some other reason.It is good for the Russians to feel the same pain Ukrainians have so maybe they react and call to the reason to act upon and stop Putler. |

Yes. I think that every prize can be redeemed for a monetary equivalent (bitcoins).
That is correct every prize can be opted to be redeemed for an equivalent amount of Bitcoin with the actual exchange rate at that moment but the problem is that so far no one has ever won the Rolex no matter how many spins are played in total since the Wheel of Fortune has been introduced. The other my concern which is a personal one is why are the good prizes not included in the table when we use Play all the spins like they are included in the Play one spin?I have been wondering from sometime about this now,not saying anything about the site I know they are trusted,just some more clarification is needed in this point. |

I will not doubt the easy victory that Manchester City will get in their first match in the Premier League this season, especially their defeat in the Community Shield match will certainly be a big motivation and if you look at the team's strength, of course Manchester City is much stronger than Burnley.
I will bet on Manchester City's big win in this game. I think that at the start of the season a top team like Manchester City will not let their guard down and they will focus on achieving big wins in order to secure the best position and stabilize the team's mentality.
Yes, of course Man City has a great chance to win in its first match in the EPL league. Although this season it is difficult for Man City to maintain the EPL League because many of their star players have left, I believe that their first match will get three points. Erling Haaland will be Man City's mainstay up front for sure because in Man City's last meeting with Burnley he scored a hat trick with a final score of 6-0 for Man City's victory. This match will also be interesting because there will be a reunion of the former Man City player who is now Burnley coach, Vincent Kompany. We know that Vincent Kompany has played as a centre-back for over eleven years and he has also had success with Manchester City. But now he has to prove he can beat Pep Guardiola, his former coach. You could say this fight is like a former student vs teacher match. Burnley I think would've had better chances of taking something out of their first English Premier League match of the season had the Manchester club won their Community Shield game against Arsenal on Sunday. City lost that game and wouldn't want to jeopardize their chances of retaining the English Premier League title this season and that's why they'll go all out to win the game and send a clear message to other Premier League clubs that they're still the Champions of England and are capable to retain the title. Burnley will want to also prove a point against City but I think they'll be totally outclassed in the game I think the same.Burnley retained most of their players when they relegated and that is why they had a very easy comeback from Championship to Premier League by completely dominating the last season of the Championship. However once they are in the top flight again and their bad luck to fight against the reigning Champions of Premier League who happen to also make a triple of trophies won last year including Champions League,means they stand absolutely no chance to even hold Manchester City to a draw.I think this game will end with a tennis result in favor of Manchester City something in 5-0 or 6-0 line. |

I don't know what is it with even numbers and '00s, but a lot of people seem to rush whatever their means of getting some money are in order to reach this 'milestone.'
I think a lot of people are also doing this, so you're probably not one in getting this exact same scenario. I have my fair share of this, though I usually do it to 'reduce' my balance to a number I can easily recall for the next time I play, I know how much I need to add to my balance to keep my budget intact. It's a very weird way of chasing the even numbers or '00s, but I do feel your sentiment regarding it.
OP sharing his experience does not make sense if we get realistic because, at the end of the day, it's just a pattern. Anything related, what we should understand as gamblers, is our chances, which are lower compared to the house. One problem that we will encounter in gambling is the lack of discipline in managing our bankroll. So, it's not the amount of bankroll based on numbers, whether odd or even, it's us and how we are handling it. We can completely remove the so called house edge if we stop playing games of chance and we focus our efforts in game of skill yet there is nothing we can do about repeated scenarios.If you are like me that you have a huge amount of extremely bad luck then it will serve no purpose whatever you do,be it playing slot machines be it playing sport betting or poker,you are doomed to fail just like I have failed in continuity for many many years. However managing the budget and not caring about whatever patterns we encounter in repeat is the best way to go,focusing only on our main aim which is to hit that big win. |

Ok then it is a bet.I accept with 1:1 odds as it is a personal feeling of mine that Pochettino can make wonders as a coach,he just had not yet found a team with all these talented players that Chelsea bought next year.I am not at all worried for the results of the friendlies,they are that friendlies and does not show the true form of a team.Luckily or unluckily the first game of Chelsea is against a strong opponent so it can show us a lot about them but I would not be worried even if they lose or draw this first game,so it s a bet then. Sure let me make it clearer then If Chelsea ended the league at the top 4 spot then you win 1mbtcIf Chelsea ended the league outside of the top 4 spot then I win 1mbtcso I guess we both just have to confirm this terms then to proceed? I dunno how this side bets works in here as this is my first time but I cant really help not to join this though as I think this is fun compared to getting an outright bet on site That is the exact bet I think it is clear,if Chelsea finish top 4 I win the bet,if Chelsea does not finish top 4 you win the bet.We pay after the end of the season in May/June like most bets were paid out during this last pool season that we just left aside a couple of months ago. For the first time you got it 100% right and no worries,it is just 0.001 Bitcoin which anyone of us can easily have as long as they are in signature campaigns and even if they are not,we are here from a lot of time  . |

In groups dreaming may be better but when people let's suppose have a remote chance and go and win the lottery,usually will start a fight,one will say I bought the tickets,I got physically to the shop,one other will say it is thanks to me as I choose the number and so on each one will come up with an excuse trying to get more money from the entire sum.This inevitably leads to fights and sometimes there have been tragic consequences,some have even died trying to argue as why each of them deserved more that the situation precipitated to the worse.That is why I think it is better to play alone with your small chances,no mess up or confusion or even bad consequences will happen.

~snip~ The same is possible for Mbappe. If he doesn't want to stay in Paris, they should allow the transfer of the player.
PSG have eliminated any form associated with Mbappe. I saw on social media that all the shirts in the official booth had been taken again. In addition, the image of Mbappe in the stadium has also been removed. So it looks like Mbappe is indeed going to leave, it's just that they are waiting for the best moment. So even though it is currently in difficult conditions, it seems that it will end soon. Nasser Al Khelaifi wants to sell Mbappe even earlier. But Mbappe will not leave the club. By deleting the picture of Mbappe in the stadium, Nasser Al Khelaifi has hinted that he will no longer include Mbappe in the squad. However, if Mbappe wants to stay at the club it would be a shame. I don't know why a star player like Mbappe doesn't want to leave PSG after being so humiliated. Clubs like Real Madrid and Liverpool are interested in Mbappe. They will pay high wages. However, they are not getting any response from Mbappe. However, Nasser Al Khelaifi has made it clear that Mbappe will not be in the squad next season. Let's think clearly when Kylian Mbappe still has a contract with Paris SG even though Mbappe wants to leave but when his contract is still valid Mbappe can't do anything except next season when Kylian Mbappe's contract is up and that's the right time for Mbappe to open his voice where he will go and most likely to Bayern munchen or Real madrid.
The two big clubs who want Kylian Mbappe to strengthen their chances of getting the Champions League trophy in the coming season but it will be a bit difficult will have to wait at least a year. If Mbappe stays with PSG this season, and leaves PSG as a free agent next season, there are many clubs who would like to have Mbappe in the squad. And they will offer Mbappe big bonuses and high wages. Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are among them. Chelsea and Liverpool will also try to sign Mbappe. Even this season, these two clubs have tried to bring Mbappe into the team. I also think Newcastle will also want to strengthen their squad next season. As they are very rich club. So they can offer Mbappe a big offer to bring a big star player like Mbappe into the team next season. I think Mbappe would want to play for at least one year on loan at Chelsea where he should mature enough as a player to go to the bigger teams of PSG,Real,Bayern or Liverpool.I am always against moving up the ladder to fast no matter how good of a player you are when you are still young and you need to play in a team of average/good level gaining some beneficial experience before moving up to a top team. Newcastle would be a good option also for him as they are in the same league as Chelsea but with them he would be playing in Champions League so not missing anything,both are good options which I think he should consider. |

So guys who was for Chelsea outside top 4,I am against it just for fun I can agree to a 1 mBtc side bet with anyone and I back that Chelsea under the ownership of Pochettino will be in the top 4 in the end of this league.I am not asking more than 1 mBtc as most likely the side I took is very difficult to come true yet I believe in the hand of Poch to make miracles here,he did it with a much weaker team in theory like Tottenham so I don't see any reason why he won't do it again with Chelsea.
1:1 odds at 1 mbtc? I am interested on doing this side bet on 1:1 odds though I personally feel that Chelsea doesnt have what it takes to be on top 4 (personally also this is a biased opinion  ). City, Arsenal and Manchester United probably will be taking top 4 for sure thus that leave another spot left to take. Liverpool and Newcastle is also aiming for top 4 for sure so yeah Ok then it is a bet.I accept with 1:1 odds as it is a personal feeling of mine that Pochettino can make wonders as a coach,he just had not yet found a team with all these talented players that Chelsea bought next year.I am not at all worried for the results of the friendlies,they are that friendlies and does not show the true form of a team.Luckily or unluckily the first game of Chelsea is against a strong opponent so it can show us a lot about them but I would not be worried even if they lose or draw this first game,so it s a bet then. |

Juventus won't wing anything in the next years because they are once again in a dirty situation and I don't see this club to get into surface anytime soon.
What I do want instead , is to see Lazio becoming Serie A champions as it's been to long since they won it and if Napoli did it , I'm sure Lazio can find a way and a solid project to get them there.
I don't think Lazio has the capacity this year for such a huge achievement.They are a solid team with good results overall but in order to become Champions in Italy Serie A you have to be clinical when it comes to getting results as just some mistakes here can cost you the whole effort that may be the team have put up during an important huge chunk of the season.I don't think Lazio is at that level,mostly Inter is a strong heavy favorite during this year as they have been very active in getting good players plus they already had good ones,they made many mistakes last year which I think won't be repeated here this season. |

Some people who suffered from this syndrome are lottery winners and those who won a huge amount of money from casinos or even investors who made huge profits from trading What is Sudden Wealth Syndrome (SWS)?
Sudden wealth syndrome (SWS) is a type of distress that afflicts individuals who suddenly come into large sums of money. Becoming suddenly wealthy can cause people to make decisions they might not have otherwise made. Sudden wealth syndrome symptoms include feeling isolated from former friends, feeling guilty about their good fortune, and extreme fear of losing their money. Many people afflicted with Sudden Wealth Syndrome deal with an identity crisis because they transition from surviving on a meager weekly, fortnightly, or monthly salary to becoming a wealthy and privileged individual. https://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/suddenwealthsyndrome.aspI experience this in the glory days of Bounty where in those days you can earn huge money from bounties it's not really a very huge amount of money but enough to change my financial status at that time, the feeling is not good there are a lot of highs and lows and you will start to ask yourself if you deserve it or suddenly everything you wanted are all here and you become isolated, good that I have overcome this feeling when I have it the first thing I did is to talk to my family and list everything that should be done and try not to change my thought even if I have a huge amount of money in front of me. Have you experienced this feeling and what are the steps that you've taken to fight this Sudden Wealth Syndrome (SWS) Do you think people who have a chance to make a lot of money should be aware of this and do you know what you're going to do if you won a big amount of money? I wish and I would love to have all the desired things once in my life,if that moments come to me I will make sure I don't use it in vain by buying worthless things,something I usually do with excess money.Yet I have played for so long in slot machines,more than 5 years and never a single time to hit a max win,I guess I should be one of the most unlucky people when it come to gambling as I have seen that most other people who has played the same time as me have won at least once in some slot machine the max win,5 years playing slots consistently and never winning the max win is sure one hell of a huge bad luck. I am well prepared though to know what to do if I get that huge amount,I will invest in several ventures to try to make me passive income. |

The game of yesterday of Gent vs Pogon I wonder how can a team from the Poland league not be able to score at least one goal to a team from the Belgium league where in here most teams concede a lot of goals,I know the difference in quality and I know Gent was heavy favorite to pass the elimination round but I never expected a 5-0 complete domination from them.If you see the stats Pogon barely hit one time in the target and that shows that this team has no chances at all to a recovery in the return game in Poland.

it's safer and wiser to use small amount and maybe win not so good amount in the process, than losing high amount and not winning something reasonable.
I agree with you. I also follow this strategy. I never use a big sum of money. It is important to gamble responsibly and prioritize your financial well-being above all. If you can control yourself using that strategy, you will be fine and can play gambling in peace. But when you want more wins, it might be time for you to start losing self-control in gambling. So we really have to have good self-control in gambling so we don't just follow our ego to get big wins. It's okay if we can only get small wins because maybe that's an amount we can win. Who knows we can win in large numbers another day. Everyone has a strategy that works for them and when one deviates from the strategy that works, it means that they are liable to face losses. Playing bigger odds with small amount of money is a strategy which will make the gambler not to feel the impact much when he losses. Another strategy is playing smaller odds with big amount of money which will make gambler have more chances of winning. But whatever strategy anyone uses that works for them, it will be fine they stick to such strategy. I think from what I am seeing in the chat of Stake people posting sport bets there to show to other people I see that most of those bets are with huge odds and little money as placed bets.I agree with this strategy as if the bets loses (which has high possibilities) the gambler does not care at all while if the gambler play low odds with big amount of money if the gambler loses this kind of bets it won't be easy to pass over it compared to the previous strategy.I have completely switched to sport bets from some time now and I feel confident that it is better this way,either use the budget when is low with huge odds or when the budget is big with low odds trying have more chances winning. |

@BitcoinGirl.Club Thanks. As we have an agreement good luck to you as well! A PM has been sent for invitation to the league. I still can't believe that the Premier League is starting on Friday. I have missed it a lot. -- I think Liverpool will finish the league ahead of Arsenal.
Shame I'm late for this one. If anyone else wants it, let me know - Arsenal will finish ahead of Liverpool for sure. I'd be also willing to take Everton to stay in the league and Hojlund to score less than 17,5 PL goals. I know that you are a good Liverpool fan. Don't you trust them this season?  I have made many side bets however the options below are still valid for a short time. -- I think Tottenham will finish the league ahead of Brighton. -- I think Liverpool will finish the league ahead of Chelsea. -- I think Manchester United will finish the league ahead of Newcastle. I wanted to make a side bet again with you but honestly you have chosen obvious options,they are all your wins in theory,so let's make one up again,let me make you one even more obvious than this --I think Arsenal will be ahead of Manchester United we pay with 0.001 each if you accept this --I think Arsenal will be ahead of Manchester City and I pay you 0.001 if I lose (most likely the case) but if I win you pay me 0.02 Bitcoin as chances are almost 0 for this to happen during this season. |

The first time I tried slots in my life, I use 1Eur to make 240Euro, this was my most joyous day in gambling, it was so unexpected, I freaked out and freaking lost my mind, since then I started believing that gambling do have some surprises when you don't expect them.
The saddest Slots spinning day was when I use 300$ to spin for hours and had on 20$ left, that was where I finally decided to cash out, I felt bad for a week before I got over it, that was when I started having a gambling limit in mind.
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.
I have but it is a sad one and it is very simple.At the year 2019-2020 when I played a lot of slot machines as strangely at that time the slots were better than today,I used to hit well over x3000 several times back then and I thought,wow it is easy to win at slots so I kept playing until I became completely addicted.Luckily with the passing of time I quit the addiction and play rarely now but I still feel very bad when I lose,especially Pragmatic slots have lost their shine and I keep losing and losing without any real meaningful hit,those x3000 were all in Play n go slots. |

I also used to get 50 Golden Tickets from the WoF a long time ago which proved worthless as lately the last 2 rounds or should I say three rounds have been won with people with well over 4000 Golden Tickets,these people are people who wager like crazy and sometimes for them even winning the Lambo they cannot get out of the loss abyss they are dived in from their gambling.
I would understand gambling as it gives you perks and side benefits here but overdoing it will not bring any good to anyone as history has shown,so just gamble for fun and not overdo it.
Good point. No matter it's 1, 10 or 50 tickets, it's just drop in the ocean and it doesn't makes any difference in general. As usual, it's most likely that winner of Lambo will be one of whales who gamble like crazy. So, for regular people like most of us it should be just for fun, as overdoing it will only bring big losses. Sometimes I got obsessed to win weekly lottery so I kept gambling and gambling in the hope that I would win the lottery and I kept losing money by getting reward points,lottery tickets and a couple of golden tickets only to find out the truth you are saying,when we overdo it we lose a lot of money so it is better to have chances with what we win from free rolls,referral rolls and Wheel of Fortune spins,this way I would not have any regret if I win or not the lottery ticket as I did not lose a single cent of my own. For this round I only have 2 or 3 Golden tickets that I got during all this time from the WoF so I am not counting anything although each ticket has equal chances as they say . |

I am not into gambling anymore. But with the weekly income that i have now, I can use 10-20% from my side. This may fluctuate based on situation but keeping my savings aside, I am left with 10-20% every week. And those are the money i use for my own entertainment purposes. That's the amount i can afford to lose. In that sense, I said if I were to gamble, I can easily use that percentage of my weekly income for gambling. You are correct about the fact that more gambling will lead to more spending. It will have a bad effect on the long run. So that's a thing of concern. But I don't think less income will be any better if you are already a gambling addict. Less income will cause more damage if you are addicted and in meed of more money to gamble. Budget does not matter as long as you have control over your gambling habit. I agree,when you have self control and great discipline the budget does not count a lot,you can make a little budget go a long way when you are used to gamble with certain patterns and you don't over do it.Most people,including me play well over 10% of their budget in gambling but when you have set a fixed amount you can use it like you don't have it and as such you can try different games in gambling,if you win great for you and if you lose you already counted this money as a lost amount so in both scenarios there is nothing to worry. |
