Toulouse will face Lyon today. both have pretty much the same gameplay. It's quite difficult to predict this fight. Toulouse has a slightly worse defense. and that can be used by Lyon who will be the favorites in this match.
their previous meeting at home Lyon ended in a 1-1 draw. and now it might be Toulouse's opportunity to gain a home advantage.

I've made my bet decision and bet for Lyon today
Lyon's match statistics for at least the last 5 weeks is a consideration for me, even though the average ends in a draw but they haven't lost in the last five weeks, on the other hand Lyon managed to surprise us when face an away match against Paris Saint Germain
After see the comparison between the two teams, I'm sure Lyon is much more consistent than Toulouse

These two teams score a lot of goals so is only natural to expect a lot of goals in this encounter so the most natural result should be an over 2.5 goals if both teams play like they always do.I am a bit worried though as sometimes Lyon games end in goalless draw and I have seen a lot of people betting on both teams to score and over 2.5 goals so I am just following what the majority is doing.

Lyon has the upper hand or in theory they should have it as they have been playing somewhat better football and entertaining one but Toulouse also plays beautiful football and since they are playing at home maybe they can surprise everyone tonight with a win against Lyon.Money lines bet are most of the times the most dangerous ones so I stay away from them.

I think this is a good move for me personally as every time I see a team that is being sponsored for example from bwin,bet365 or sportsbet or any other casino I immediately start thinking bad about such team when they are the favorite and they lose the game.My first thought is that it is because of such sponsorship that maybe they get impacted and maybe these casinos ask a favor of such team to come out with this result for such game.I know this is a heavy accusation but this starts in my head as soon as I see Real Madrid losing,Juventus losing,Arsenal losing or any other team that is being sponsored by such companies,so overall for me personally it is a good move but anyone has his own opinion,does not mean that if is good for me is good for anyone else.

I believe yesterday night everybody to have lost money in the Europa League games as most of the favorites,Leverkussen and the biggest surprise United did not win their games.The teams who had bigger odds like Feyenoord and Juventus won their games with a lot of difficulty but they won.I think the reason is that people were making money on Champions League and so they kept betting on the favorites and so big surprises have happened.It will be very interesting in the return leg for Manchester United which is the main favorite for Europa League to see how they will react in this game,also Bayer Leverkussen will have a very difficult time to qualify but I think they will do and they will win.

Things actually started to go really well for Schalke about saving themselves from the relegation area first. But their losing the last two matches just destroyed their good form.

Maybe they weren't able to get wins during that time but they weren't losing at least. But their consistency about not losing a single match came to an end at a point. Technically they still have a chance to cling to the Bundesliga but it will be quite tough for them. Because the gap with the team just over this area is 5 points. This difference can normally be closed easily for a decent team. But I can't be sure of anything as for the last-placed team in the league. Schalke just can't manage to keep their full concentration for a long time. They seemed really strong last season but now they are back to their version before relegating to the second league previously.

I think Schalke should win in tonight game as this is their last chance in order to have a go at saving themselves from being directly relegated and having a chance to at least go to play offs game in the relegation battle against a promoted team from Bundesliga 2.
Hertha Berlin is a team which is not capable at the moment to make surprise results but this does not mean that it will be an easy game for Schalke,both of the teams have this game as a final while I think Schalke is a bit more favored as they are playing at home and their recent results has been better.

It would be a good bet and I have put it on Schalke draw no bet in order to be safe as most likely this can also end in a draw.

Today is the big day I see as I saw now that 179 days and some hours remain until the next draw,everybody is hoping to be a winner but only one will be the lucky winner of the Lambo.Even those persons with just a single ticket with only a few tickets but most likely it will be won again by some guy with over 1000 tickets.I hope it is the same like the last time,not the same number of tickets  Grin but I hope that someone from the forum wins the Lambo again,we deserve it more than anyone else as we are the most active users of Freebitco.in from what I have seen here.

It is almost impossible for Madrid to win the La Liga title. Unless a miracle happens. Even if Real Madrid wins all of their upcoming matches, the title is out of the question unless Barcelona drops points. Barcelona losing 14 points in 10 games is highly unlikely.
Even as a Real Madrid fan I have given up. I don't feel very confident and I'm realistic about the current state of affairs. The points difference is big and as you write it is impossible that Barcelona will lose and lose fourteen points in the remaining games of the season.
I think at the moment it's best to keep trying to win and get the three points. They should focus on the Copa Del Rey and UCL. Because the Copa Del Rey and UCL are the most real expectations at the moment.


True it's very difficult, unfortunately playing too many games (see the Cup) doesn't help
Barcelona after his exit from the cups decided to aim for La Liga, if he doesn't win I think Xavi would be fired, so he's obliged to win something.

That will be easy for Barcelona to achieve as they are leading comfortably.In the cup they were eliminated because they took it easy against Real Madrid after having won the first leg 1-3 they thought that it would be easy for them to administer the game and did not take into account an eager Real Madrid which honestly no one of us expected.Since they are now out of all the competitions their only focus is La Liga and they are comfortably leading again despite their failure in the beginning of this week to win against Girona,they can afford such results and less than 10 games remain until the end of the season and rarely Barcelona makes such errors like last Monday.

Unai Emery is the coach who can optimize the potential of the mediocre teams and after he success in Sevilla and now Aston Villa had outstanding progress under him that with only 5 months since he arrived to this team he can bringing Aston Villa reach to european zone and this something that the previous Aston Villa coaches could not do

But this weekend Aston Villa will do a hard match against Newcastle and considering the performance from both teams which is equally good i think this match will be so tight and talking about meetings statistics if i am not mistaken Unai Emery debut match on October was happened when Aston Villa against Newcastle and at that time Aston Villa were lose 4-0 so Emery has bad experience with this team

He is a great coach,no doubt about that but the fact is that Newcastle is a better team than Aston Villa and most likely they are going to win this as the maximum Aston Villa can do is to get a draw.Newcastle is on a great run recently and I think it will not be Aston Villa to hold them back despite Aston Villa really great results recently.I don't think they will lose with a tennis result this time as they have been improving themselves for over 5 months now so the most ideal bet here would a draw no bet on both teams as draw for me will be the most likely result of this game.

I have about 100 WoF spins saved to play tonight right before the Lambo draw,I already have 13 tickets which is an irrelevant number of tickets compared to the last 2 Lambo winners,nevertheless each single ticket have equal chances to win and I hope to win at least 1 more from the spins I will do tonight.

On a side note I hope everyone take profit now who can buy a FUN token for less Satoshi because the price of Bitcoin has been in the increase lately and this can be a good side investment.

I would not be that sure about Milan to win against Bologna,yesterday in Champions League against Napoli they showed us the ugliest form of football being played ever with just one hit at the goal and then suffering complete Napoli total dominance and it was only thanks to controversial decisions of the referee that Milan won yesterday night.In the road they have not been brilliant either except that 0-4 win against a self complacent Napoli leading with more than 16 points still.Milan has not been able to beat Salernitana at home and this is a big red flag for me to bet on Milan,all other games are pretty straight forward except Roma maybe.

And I guess you were astonished still, right ? just not not the kind of surprise you were looking forward too, but I for one I'm literally done with making excuses for this Chelsea side, it's high time I start making money off their consistent misfortune, they are absolutely nothing but a team full of mediocre stars that are playing absolutely bull crap form of football.

saw it on Troll Football twitter account - "if Chelsea continue to slide down, they will eventually find oil"   Grin Grin Grin
maybe that is a owners goal, oil would pay off all investments

looking from this point, Real was a real deal, especially on this odds, expected from Chelsea to hold down at least a half, but they could not do that
Napoli proved that Osimhen is half-of-the-team, they could scored fast, and several, but didn't, and will have troubles to stop city derby in semi-final

I would add that the goalkeeper of Milan was also in an outstanding form and saved at least 3-4 sure goals from Napoli.I saw the odd of the return leg of Napoli 1.85 and I think it is free money for all of us,they are going to crush Milan really badly if Milan plays like yesterday night which the only dangerous shot on goal was the goal of the game,also the goalkeeper will not always be in such form and the atmosphere at Napoli will be burning in this event.

Osimhen will most likely play for the return leg and I think if Milan plays like yesterday night it is going to be a sure win for Napoli but even if does not make it for all the full 90 minutes still I believe Napoli to win.

An interesting interview was done with Halimton.

He has spoken about different things but this one is the most relevant to me.

He basically said F1 lied about getting clean air while following close another car with this generation of cars, he said the air is not clean and the car behind suffers anyway.

That is a heavy accusation towards FIA if true but I have my doubts about it,Hamilton is the type of guy who always complain when things don't go his way and it is the third consecutive season that things are not going his way,maybe is time for him to retire as I doubt he still has the skills now to become again World Champion when he is getting older,he left 38 and is going to 39,I don't remember any driver winning a Championship in F1 in modern era at the age of 39.I know we have Alonso at an older age but still I doubt he can win Championships too,so clean air maybe is just his hunch and nothing more.

Well well well,despite the referee ruining my Napoli win 1-2 in the predictor,I earned the first yellow cap of the season here,despite being shared with another member,it is still me topping the leaderboard.My username for the free bet in Betnomi is the same as here as I have never paid attention before how Betnomi usually distribute it as I thought I could never win a yellow cap and I was 35th now I am 16th just 3 points away from the last prize spot,I thought everything to have finished for me here in this pool long time ago while now I am more than ever in a try to get at least to 10th place and I know there are a lot others in this fight,so it is going to be interesting as only 9 games in total remain which are just 27 points for this to finish.

This is one of those sad nights where the referee impacts the game in Napoli at least as he gave the second yellow to a player who did not really commit a foul this second time at all.I don't know who the referee is but he completely destroyed Napoli game now and Milan is winning a game they don't deserve at all to win as they have showed nothing,even if they score again they are going to get brutally eliminated from the Champions League in the return leg as they are not playing football at all just parking the bus and defending,the goal they scored was a mistake of Napoli and the only counter attack for Milan,what a f*cking bad night honestly for football.

PSG host Lens and the result of this match is very important for both teams. There is a six-point gap between the two teams and it will either increase or decrease with this match. It is a match that will perhaps decide the fate of the league. For this reason, I think all teams will focus on this match. The result of this match will also be important for Marseille and Monaco. They are the teams competing for 2nd place.

I won't be surprised at all if I see PSG lose this game against Lens both teams are on top of the table and Lens should itself in this game by winning this important match against PSG and if they somehow beat PSG the gap between these two teams can be decreased to three points which can put PSG in danger.

I personally would be surprised as Lens already beat 3-1 PSG in the first stint of the season and at that game Paris did play really badly.Now in this game they have two things in mind,first of all that if they win this game then they close definitely the title fight and they will be already Champions of Ligue 1 despite not mathematically yet but we all know that this game is a final and secondly they want revenge for that poor performance they had in the first game against Lens where they lost.

If the odds are good which I think they should be then I think this is free money to win during this weekend.

After ensuring victory in the champions league, now manchester city will focus again on the EPL match this week and the opponent will be Leicester. We know Leicester are currently in the relegation zone and therefore they have just brought in new coach Dean Smith.

This match will also make Dean Smith's debut as Leicester coach and Leicester hope Dean Smith can bring Leicester to a safer position for the rest of the season so they won't be relegated next season. However, it seems that Leicester's first win will vanish because the opponent is Manchester City, which is currently targeting full points to catch up with Arsenal.

There are a couple of examples of why this will not work.First of all we saw in Chelsea that they changed two times coach this season and they are playing for nothing now in Premier League,one of the worst recent seasons of Chelsea,in fact the worse since the era of Abramovich.We have another case at Bayern Munchen where they changed coach while they were fighting for three trophies and they are already out of 2 now,so these examples show that if this has not worked in teams like Chelsea and Bayern which are much stronger than Leicester,most likely won't work at Leicester either.

They stand absolutely no chance against Manchester City especially after the brilliant victory of City over Bayern in Champions League which takes their moral to another level.
3656  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto casino sports betting for gamblers at local bookmakers. on: April 12, 2023, 01:11:43 PM
I will share a little of my experience when I invite some friends who like to bet at local bookies.

A few months ago about 4 of my friends came to my local town house to bet on a football game and after a while they were arrested by law enforcement in my country because I live in a country where gambling is strictly prohibited and there are laws in it. They were all jailed for several days and had to pay fines to be released from prosecution.

Here I feel sorry for them if they have to deal with the law again so I teach and give them an understanding of crypto casino, after understanding I suggest using crypto casino which I believe they can use as well so they can bet on every sporting event freely and without having to afraid to face the law again.

And what concerns me is that one of them actually becomes a gambling addict in a crypto casino. It was a pity that he had lost his senses and forgot about his responsibilities as the head of the family to the point where he was more concerned with money at stake.
From that incident I felt very guilty for inviting him to bet at a crypto casino until he became an addict.

I want to ask for advice and input from members here, what should I do to deal with this friend of mine and how should I react to it because he became a crazy gambler because of my invitation.

I think that since they liked to bet on local bookies,they were already addicted but addiction was not there yet because they had to find ways to gamble as gambling was strictly prohibited by government and they even went to jail for some days before they were released.You should not feel guilty at all as you told them a new way of playing without fear in the pseudo anonymous crypto casinos that most governments can't really track as it would drain them a lot of money and resources to do so,so you did a good deed for them and you should be proud of that.

It is not your fault that one becomes addicted,anyone is responsible for their own actions at the end of the day,so nothing to fear,they were already avid gamblers before your invitation anyway.
3657  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2022/23 Season on: April 12, 2023, 11:30:36 AM
Currently Manchester United are in a really great shape compared to Sevilla. They are really likely to finish the season in the area that they can qualify for the Champions League. This makes me think about whether they would care about the Europa League the same as well. But considering their effort in this tournament so far I guess they really want to go for the title at the same time.

In the end they can have one more title together with the EFL Cup one this season. Sevilla isn't a big obstacle for them currently on paper. Because Sevilla aren't the one we know right now I'm afraid. They are normally the dominator of the Europa League and a usual part of top 4 in the La Liga. But their performance this season is a huge disappointment.

Because of that I just wait for Manchester United to destroy them in Old Trafford already and finish the matchup early.
Sevilla are no longer a top club this season as they were a few years ago when they were regularly in the Champions League. This year their results are very bad. I agree with you that Manchester United will beat them easily. They are determined to win the Europa League this season.

They truly are as they want to repeat the success they had in 2017 and it is exactly six years since then.The odd also points to an easy qualification to Manchester United at 1.33 to win at their home means it is going to be easy according to bookies to beat Sevilla.I am sure if Manchester sees the opportunity to score as many goals as possible just like City did yesterday,they will grab it and end the qualification of this tier already in the first leg at their home leaving extremely little room for a Sevilla turn around when they will play in Spain.

For tomorrow game though I think Juventus is the best bet to choose to win as they have 1.86 odd which is a good one since they are playing in their home against a weak team like Sporting.

Back to my CL predictions, I chose Benfica, Real Madrid, and Manchester City to win the first leg. I watched Bayern's last match, and with key players out injured, I don't think they can stop Manchester City right now. Benfica and Real Madrid will easily defeat Inter and Chelsea.

Seems like we expected too much from Haaland. Blame the midfield or blame him, I don't know. But still to convert 50% of shots into goal is impressive.

I chose Benfica and that didn't happen, I really honestly didn't expect Bayern to give up the semifinal so easily, now City can relax and experiment, but I really want Chelsea to perform!

I would also love that Chelsea to show up some great football and to put Real Madrid in real difficulty but when I started reasoning cold headed I thought that Chelsea has been going from bad to worse in their recent results and the change of coach at this point was senseless for me while Real Madrid is only focusing 100% here in the Champions League and after winning 0-4 against Barcelona that was a great boost for them as they maybe thinking we can beat any team and we are the favorites to win Champions based on our experience and that is why I bet all my remaining balance for the week for them to win tonight.
3659  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: No one talks about xmr and CPU mining anymore on: April 12, 2023, 09:42:48 AM
Over the years, privacy coins have become less and less popular in centralized exchanges (some exchanges were even forced to delete them) and their prices didn't really go high up in the last bull run. Most didn't even hit new all-time highs at all, including Monero

Now it's obvious most people saw no point of mining it, if they had to wait all the way through the bear market to bull market with no good profitability like we saw with BTC or ETH.

Coincidentally a post from another thread answers this question. Mining is the only way to obtain crypto while maintaining privacy.

Exactly and just to add to the discussion,now Wildrig has support for mining Raptoreum a CPU mineable coin which can really make a difference in the amount of them you get daily if you redirect your 6 GPU rig for example as a 6 GPU rig with 2060 would do 4000 h/s or a rig with 3060 ti would make over 11.000 h/s and the amount of coins you would be getting in a month a two can really make a difference when the devs of the RTM start implementing the programming languages for smart contract which are better than Ethereum which relies on Solidity,in here they want to go with Python or other well known programming languages which can bring a boom to this coin so better stack up.

For Monero I think we can already mine it with GPU-s too but I don't know how much coins would you get,definitely not as much as RTM which is in the initial stages yet.

Disclaimer:This is just my personal opinion and not forcing anyone to redirect their rigs,I personally did and I am very happy with the results now.
3660  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Ridiculous Bets that disappointed you on: April 12, 2023, 08:46:04 AM
I get the most frustrating bets when I play "Crash" .... Example : I will constantly bet say $1 on Crash and my highest multiplier will be 2x and below on my wins, but the moment when I drop my bets below $0.05 it will go up to 50x or 100x at it's highest wins.

Then, when I stop betting ... it will hit the 2000x or some ridiculous multiplier just to tease me into betting more. I know this sounds crazy and they use one seed for everyone playing on Crash, but this is my personal experience.  Sad

You're not the one, even in slot games there is this near miss when you thought that you has the bonus and then you miss one scatter. And you have been betting high and not getting the bonus games, so you reduced the bet and then you got the bonus, Lol. So you try to increased you bets again but the scatter are not appearing anymore.

But as far as crash games, yeah, exciting when you are about to hit that ridiculous multiplier when suddenly it just stop.

Or even in games where you have a parlay and the only one bet that is missing for you to win is the favorite, suddenly they were upset on the handicap was not covered, so frustrating.

In slot games is the more frustrating of all experiences,they keep you giving a bit when you begin your session and from what I have learned during this time is better to play 20 spins with higher bet than 200 spins with lower bet,the fun ends sooner but still if you hit you can win.The near miss in slot machines especially in Play n Go provider is one of the worst of all with well over 33% near miss the bonus round,meaning you get 33% 2 out of 3 symbols needed for the bonus round.

Compared to the OP bet I have been playing with 1 dollar bet in slot machines and when I was left with pennies I hit a 0.10 bet and won x1700 my amount and kept going as I was teased and lost everything.Bottom line there are no ridiculous bets in gambling.
