Logan Sargeant will miss Australian GP. His car is given to Alex Albon. During practice Albon had big crash, car suffered serious damage and Williams didn't had 3rd chasis to replace crashed one. So, they decided to sacrifice Sargeant.
From team perspective it's understandable, Albon have more chances to fight for points. But what kind of message they"re sending to Albon, I don't know... He haven't done nothing wrong and now he is forced to miss race because of temmate mistake.

I don't think it is understandable from a team perspective if Albon fails to get into the points zone which I have confidence 100% he will not be able to under normal conditions as the 5 big teams Redbull,Ferrari,McLaren,Aston Martin and Mercedes most probably will have those spots taken if no accidents or Safety Car jumps in to change the course of a race.If you make a mistake you simply pay for it and don't take your team mate car to go racing,a really bad,extremely bad move from Williams which turned down all the respect that I had for them as a team for their history,apparently Williams is run by low moral people with these choices,no matter if Albon is a better driver you still can't do this.

At the moment it looks as if my tip with Leclerc on pole could even work out, but I've put my tip on Verstappen to win, Ferrari are clearly still making too many mistakes. Nice to see that Sainz is fully fit and can keep up the pace. Hamilton has disappointed again at the moment and didn't make it into the final qualifying session.

There will be quite some occasions for him during this race,the race of Australia is well known for the huge number of incidents happening and this can bring in the Safety Car which can impact the race and the strategy of the teams.I knew that Verstappen would get pole as soon as I saw the FP3 Practice and saw that he missed it there by a very very small margin against Leclerc.There has been a penalty for Perez and Perez wills start 6th from 3rd,the penalty was given to him for impeding Nico Hulkenberg during the qualifying.

As for losing EBP can have a really bad impact overall throughout this prediction pool,2 points can make a difference in the final standings.

lol... well!
Filling the gas tank is literally burning money, I think to using a bicycle is viable, or walking, I don't know, where is the fun of putting gas in a car, and then to have to do it thousands of times...

Moral, the fun is driving, doing it is pleasant, the cost of gasoline has nothing to do with it. Likewise with betting, winning, losing, is the pleasure, betting is the gasoline.


I think this is a good analogy but I don't agree that much with it.When you fill the car with gasoline you know that you will have a lot of driving available to you because the fuel tank is refilled to be full and with that fuel tank you are guaranteed for example to make like 500-1000km depending on your car engine.The money you put in betting though you have no guarantee that you will play a certain amount of time as it may happen you to lose that money very fast when you have a bad session,so the fun is absolutely not guaranteed here like in the case of refilling your car which guarantees you driving quite some kilometers of distance,in gambling you have no guarantees and that is why for me there is no fun in gambling.Even when the game makes you think you are going to win for example throwing at you x500 multipliers but not hitting a winning combination,there is absolutely no fun in this too.

Those practices are not only done in Africa,sure in Africa this is more emphasized as a thing as in there the resources are a lot.However let me tell you that in every poor country in the world the same type of politics happen,the politicians claim to be fighting for the people and the nation yet in 95% of the cases they are fighting only to enrich themselves and their families for generations.The suffering is then a burden to all the people of a nation or even a continent like Africa in your case which I highly doubt you will see any change as human race is based on greed and the desire to have more and more,so overall it will be very difficult to change that and this is what I see also in the country where I live in now in an East European one which resembles a lot with Africa in terms of resources.

I highly doubt that Russia is capable of wagering a new war considering that over 2 years have not yield to them any significant result in Ukraine and Ukraine is still standing strong.Russia called a lot of reservists in September 2022 which about 50-60% of them has gone as cannon fodder so far having lost their lives or being heavily wounded from the reports we are seeing from this war.Russian army is very much weakened and their desperation is being shown everyday when they hit civilian infrastructure and kill some low number of civilians rather than hitting at military targets.The Finns now are part of NATO and Russia is not stupid to wage war against a NATO country while their army to be in a very weak state.Russia need at least 30-40 years to be able to recover the losses in manpower and military devices in Ukrainian war.

Iceland managed to beat Israel 4-1.Although Israel managed to take the lead by scoring the first goal, they could not hold on to the match. Iceland, which closed the first half 2-1 ahead, came closer to victory in the second half with Israel down to 10 men. Despite being down to 10 men, Israel won a penalty when the match was 2-1, but Eran Zahavi could not take advantage of the penalty. If he had scored this penalty, maybe we would be talking about different things. In the last 10 minutes, Gudmundsson scored 2 goals 3 minutes apart and won 4-1 in total.

I think that both teams are of equal level and the game could have gone either way.The fact that the most veteran player of Israel,Zahavi could not score the penalty while he always hit the penalties for Israel clearly impacted the game in favor of Iceland psychologically speaking as Israel belief that they could get anything out of this game came to new lows after that.Iceland was really believing and their belief was finalized in the last minutes of the game,veteran player from this side too Gudmundsson managed to bring back smiles to the fans of Iceland.Still both teams are of very much low quality to be playing in an European competition.
407  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Interest in new CPU MINEABLE COINS on: March 22, 2024, 01:42:08 PM
Any info about some good cpu coin?

I am mining a CPU coin but I am mining it with my GPU-s small rig and I am referring to Raptoreum as RTM,it is not a good coin right now but it had the good days in November 2021 when it hit 0.084 dollars per coin,right now is 0.0014 dollars per coin and with just 2 3000 series RTX cards I can make near 300 coins a day.

If you mine with a CPU,I will tell you the profitability from the one I used at my old job which was 12-25 coins daily from the core i5 8500 as processor but there are Ryzen-s out there,processors who can give you much more coins daily if you happen to have one of those.There are also other well known CPU coins like Monero however if you are in for the long run,personally I think the more of such cheap coins you can make with your CPU the better will be in the future,so I am not referring to now,as now everything is in red,I am referring to the future where if the prices go up we can be very happy about it.
408  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your worst nightmare in a casino? on: March 22, 2024, 01:32:24 PM
I’m talking about the potential problem that you might encounter in the casino. Personally,  My worst nightmare that I don’t want to happened to me is when I hit huge jackpot while the casino investigate my account ask documents that will support my financial capability on gambling.

I’m only reading this issue on scam accusation but this is painful if happened to me like hitting max multiplier on slot games that result to 50K profit. Can’t imagine finally hitting my dream multiplier then casino seize my profit. This is just an abstract discussion so we are not really assuming that casino will do this especially the reputable casino.

Well in the reputable casinos where I have played I have always had the luck of hitting near the max win which of course was not 50K but the casino did not ask anything,I hit an x11339 at Stake casino from Return of the Green Knight Slot and that was with minimum bet to be 1339 dollars won which I withdrew soon after and they instantly credited the withdraw to my wallet.I doubt there would have been any difference if that 1339 dollars would have been 13339 dollars for example,the same would have happened as real reputable casinos do audit all of their games they offer on a daily basis or on a weekly basis as a very minimum,so there is nothing to be worried,I am verified in these casinos so need to send documents to them from my side.

As predicted Ferraris are very competitive in this track.
The timers are still slow.

The pole position for 2023 was from Verstappen win 1.16.7, so we are almost 0.5 sec behind now.
With the improvements of cars and no changes in the track is easy to expect a poleposition for 1.16.0 or maybe even under.

If things go like that and even in Pole Position after official qualifying we have Leclerc and Sainz third then it means that we most likely are going to watch a beautiful race much different from the first 2 we have seen so far a total domination of Redbull.The problem though is that Max is there with just less than 0.4 seconds behind and I am sure he has not pushed to the max in the FP1 or FP2 but maybe also Ferrari have not pushed although I doubt it and I think that Verstappen will still be able to get the Pole Position tomorrow simply because he still has the best car out there to drive and I am sure he wants to win this title as soon as possible as the future is not known to the drivers,to some drivers at least.

I have only took part in scratching tickets which are instant lotteries,you know right in the instant if you have won or not.There are many other lotteries here,with much bigger prizes but they have a problem for me,if you win you have to be on TV thanking the ones who have implemented the lottery and I never want to be known I am some sort of gambler,although playing national lottery once a week does not make you a true gambler and that is the reason why I never play the national lottery which is 15 from 90 or 6 from 49 which are called Bingo and National Lottery so no I like to be playing online in the comfort of my sofa while no one really knows I am a gambler.

This is the longest straight, so I think Max is going to get 40 seconds lead if he wins Tongue

In the longest straight you come after a very technical part which is most of this track and this was one of my favorite tracks.I don't think the lead of Max is going to be that big.The reason for that is very simple,I was scrolling through the social media pages and saw the review of the last race in 2023,I must say we had a lot of accidents during that race and since I don't think much has changed for the cars during this season,they will still be very close to each other and so I predict again lots of incidents during this upcoming race which would make this much better in terms of dynamics and emotions during the race,much different than those races we have already seen,very much boring ones.

I guess I don't really know how it works, but in my very amateur mind for F1, based on PS games lol if you have 1 long drag stretch of road, your car will eat up all the road and make every lap 1 second gap. But you're right, accidents will take that all away, so maybe I shouldn't have predicted such a huge gap in my Predictions.

As long as it's not boring nobody will complain. But you know, everyone's already complaining it's boring and I have to agree. This is like Manchester City waiting for Klopp to make things exciting again.

I think the fact that the drivers complained from last year race that they barely had sun light in the ending laps of the track surely have impacted those number of incidents.I think despite the race starting one hour earlier still I think it is not because of low sun light but because they were near each other many times last race because of the safety car coming in.The fact that most cars have not a huge gap compared to each other excluding Redbull of course will surely make this race much more colorful than those 2 first races we had so far.

Personally I only look forward to only this race that does not take place in Europe where the best F1 tracks are,all other races outside of Europe are boring usually.

There are lots of such platforms luckily for you and facing difficulties to place live bets or waiting for your withdrawal as most of such great platforms including the one in my signature are there to fill these gaps.I personally at Stake where I play have never had any problems withdrawing any amount in less than a minute as long as you are level 2 verified there.The same to be in many other several alike platforms so during these days it is easy to get what you want.
413  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does pragmatic play bonus buy really worth it? on: March 21, 2024, 12:54:09 PM
It seems like you're caught up in the excitement of playing Pragmatic Play games on Stake.com. While the graphics are impressive, the returns from the bonus buy feature might not be worth it especially if you're frequently losing. It's puzzling why many users still opt for it, considering the high cost and limited winnings. Sure Pragmatic's games are visually appealing but when it comes to winning, they might not be your best bet especially without a 0.1$ minimum bet option. Exploring other providers with better returns could be worth a shot

Not only that but the problem nowadays with the new games they release with the x1000 feature like Gate of Olympus 1000,StarLight Princess 1000 and the most brutal Sugar Rush 1000 usually is not worth at all,this last game especially which lately Pragmatic is moving to that,adding beside the buy bonus,buy the super bonus at x500 your bet and most of the times you will lose with few times just making it to x500,so absolutely absolutely not worthy at all the Pragmatic games anymore.

It is not yet official but Ferrari has said in a communication that Sainz should be able to participate in this week's Grand Prix in Australia.

However, Bearman is with the team and will take his place if needed.

The team manager also spoke and declared that Ferrari will adopt a very aggressive strategy this week, will they be able to fight with Max?
Ferrari historically does well on this track.

This track in the last race of 2023 was impacted by heavy incidents.This is about to happen again in this season although drivers complained about low sun light in the closing stages of the race so now the race will be even one hour earlier and us Europeans will suffer to watch the race a bit as we need to sacrifice some sleep.Nevertheless one thing is sure in this track and that is this is not going to be boring like the first two races,Safety Car should have an odd of 1.03 or something like that in this track.
415  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Feelings on losing the match and the bet on: March 21, 2024, 08:06:25 AM
Do you feel sad when your favorite team loses a match and the bet (if you had placed a bet on that match)?

It is part of every sport where a team loses and a team wins the match. A team is happy and a team is sad, not only in cricket but in other sports too like basketball, volleyball and the last best sport Football.

Also, a match isn't considered a loss but if that match is a final, semi final or such a big match for example between two rivalry teams then it will be like this, but at the same time for us, even if the match isn't important in the context of the series but we place the bet and lose it, it's our lost booked and there are no second thoughts about it.

When your team wins you have happiness. Everything goes wrong including your mood and emotions if the team on which we place the bet loses the match unexpectedly.

That is normal to lose money as it is part of the bet but when you lose in a game where a team plays the most ugly football ever seen like Real Madrid did against Leipzig in the return leg then it is totally normal to get mad at losing one bet.When you bet on a team you support and win it is just normal happiness of winning a bet and it does not contain more happiness than when you win from a team you don't support and you just bet on them.

I can't wait to see Real Madrid humiliated again,those pugs who never took the return game against Leipzig seriously and they were lucky that they got a draw in the end as Leipzig nearly scored the second goal when they hit the post in the last minute of the game,so a lucky saved Real Madrid.I lost a huge amount of money because of those carefree players which against a team like Manchester City do not stand a chance at all in my opinion and will be completely dominated by Manchester City in both games.I am sure that City against a team like Real Madrid will not play defensively at all even when playing at Bernabeu,after the show against Leipzig Real Madrid truly deserves only the worse of the worse and I will be there seeing their demise from Manchester City,I have absolutely 0 doubts about it.
417  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When you are not to gamble. on: March 20, 2024, 08:15:51 PM
CONCLUSION
Gambling should be fun, it's better to stay away when it has started to become a problem.

People will hardly understand this advise because once they start gambling they never become tired of it but wants to continue gambling just because of having earning way. There is no doubt that at start people are gambling just for fun and if they become successful at first bet then their interest increases because they think that their luck is shining which will always help them to win in gambling.


The thing is that gambling is always like a trap for the weak minded because their is always the win get draws them closer and changes that fun mentality of theirs especially when they secured a good spree of winning and then later experience one or two loses, that lose tend to trigger and  activate that urge to gamble more and when this starts, the ability to stop is then now the problem because they would be so keen in trying to meet up with the previous figures they won on their betting account.

That is a well known problem but the real problem is that the person does not realize that he got a problem gambling until he sees the consequences of his action,some people have left their wives,their houses and sometimes in the dramatic tragic ending of taking one own life,that is for the weak minded.A real strong person can realize the problem and can be able to quit gambling as soon as he sees that his actions are leading nowhere and he is only losing money constantly on the long run,so the strong will of a person is the key to stopping the gambling addiction.Personally I have been able to quit for some time now the slot machines as I have only seen constant loses from three consecutive months now,either I have the worse possible luck or either the slots are rigged by the providers.

Sainz is back! I still think he won't have a great race though. Oc I got no reason to think so other than he might get too eager to win after missing Jeddah Wink

Yet to make my picks, just never know what things can look like at the end.

This is the longest straight, so I think Max is going to get 40 seconds lead if he wins Tongue

In the longest straight you come after a very technical part which is most of this track and this was one of my favorite tracks.I don't think the lead of Max is going to be that big.The reason for that is very simple,I was scrolling through the social media pages and saw the review of the last race in 2023,I must say we had a lot of accidents during that race and since I don't think much has changed for the cars during this season,they will still be very close to each other and so I predict again lots of incidents during this upcoming race which would make this much better in terms of dynamics and emotions during the race,much different than those races we have already seen,very much boring ones.

I also hope to not see so much politics involved in the matches, and im talking about this because two of the national teams who are involved are Ukrayne and Israel and we all know they are at top focus for mass media, and im very oppose to see sports and politics mixed.

I agree with you as long as the football players representing those countries do not involve themselves in politics because if they do I am fully convinced they need to be banned from the competition to keep sports clean from politics.The problem is as with every thing else in real life politics is involved everywhere and football is no exception to this,we have seen many circumstances where politics have made not so much of a correct decision.

The teams involved in war like those mentioned above should only focus on football to cheer up their citizens with Ukraine being in an over 2 year war with Russia is surely the team I would cheer for more than others but that is just my opinion.I know this upcoming Euro Cup will be great to enjoy.
420  Other / Off-topic / Re: Who does gambling addiction affect the most? on: March 20, 2024, 01:51:10 PM
It has a huge impact on the person itself as over the long run gambling addiction has created a huge percentage of people suffering from cancer because of the unnoticed high level of stress that it brings to the person while he does not notice it because the dopamine his brain emits during gambling make him to do so,despite that the level of stress impacts or favors the creation of bad cells who lead to very bad consequences.This should be enough of a reason for people to stop yet they don't.
