is gambling restricted to some certain kind of individuals or class?  or is there any stratification when it comes to playing gambling ?

No gambling is not restricted to some individuals or classes of people, anyone is allowed to gamble. Of course there are some age related restrictions but other than that I don't think there's any kind of restriction. If a country's law doesn't allow gambling and the country takes strict action against casinos then in such places it might be not possible to gamble, but many people even from such countries use VPNs to gamble on online casino sites. No stratification at all when it comes to gambling, like I said above everyone is allowed to gamble.

Yep right, you're with me in that gambling is for everyone but maybe this activity is not really recommended for a child who is really underage with a high level of instability, but yes basically and for people who are adults you can simply gamble or be allowed to engage in this activity if you have money as a condition for betting in several sessions. But on the other hand the hindrance may be in terms of regulations and policies of a country or religion, which there are certainly some countries or religions that really prohibit this gambling activity, and obviously if you are one of the individuals who obey the rules then you will prefer not to engage in betting even if you have money to bet.

But on the other hand as a whole I am sure that most people do not like rules and the majority of them always choose to break them for their own desires or needs, as in the case of gambling, even if it is prohibited but they will always try various ways to do it anyway and you have already mentioned one of the alternatives that can access online casinos if in a country it is prohibited by using a VPN or the like. Yes that's right, stratification is another thing and has nothing to do with gambling, it's very simple and the point is if you have money then you can get involved and bet.

Not taking gambling serious is not even a guarantee to win big in gambling, gambling is risky and you can not predict what will be the outcome of your game.  Since the results of gambling is not known it is better not to take it serious and by playing with amount you can afford to lose, this helps in reducing the chances of you losing in gambling.  As far as gambling is concerned the lose in it is more than than the gain you get from gambling,  that is why when you check the history of people who plays gambling much their loses is more than what they have gained. 

But the best way to play gambling is to just take it as fun,  play without expecting much from it,  it brings good peace of mind.  When investing much in gambling the loses in it can make one to go emotional.
Unbelievably, gambling doesn't give a damn about how serious you are. It's simply a game of chance. Using funds you can afford to lose when you wager? Yes, that is basic common sense. Let's not mince words, though: the company is still losing money

You claim it's more enjoyable. True, but just up to a point. Having fun while playing doesn't alter the chances. Remember, the house always wins. The price you pay for your peace of mind is frequently high. The actual winning manoeuvre? recognising when to give up. Few people are skilled in the area. So go ahead and have fun if that's what you're into. Just remember that it doesn't alter the nature of the game. It doesn't

That's right, the casino will never care how serious you are in running the session, they don't care about whatever you will do and no matter how much you struggle in terms of pursuing victory by using any means still if the time loses then you will lose, there is no mercy from the casino for gamblers regardless of the amount you bet, and what is worrying is those gamblers who have too high expectations along with applying unlimited seriousness in a place that actually always runs randomly in terms of determining who the winner is, meaning if the time loses, you still lose or vice versa. Therefore it is always advisable to apply the minimum approach in this activity, there is no seriousness to do something in a place that has no certainty.

In terms of fun yes of course it should also be limited, because it is no longer an entertainment event if basically the amount you lose exceeds your capacity, and there is only tension and pressure that occurs, on the other hand I agree with your idea that whatever you do will never change the odds, the point is that even though you do not have any hope of winning but sometimes victory comes by itself, I feel and experience it myself, and this is what is called gambling.
623  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is it possible to inherit a gambling debt? on: March 02, 2024, 01:02:23 PM
Paying debt you didn't owe is not easy and in some cases those parents didn't have any property for the children to sell to pay those debts. Even at that if the Children have money and if they were in good term with the gambler father before they can pay that debt if not most children refused to pay those debts and left it for the family members to pay those debts. Individual debt can't make the society nto be angry and I don't know the area you are talking about. Though society frown about bad behavior because it affects the interaction of members. Even though the father was a gambler and he owe debt. Good fathers look for a solution for their children before dieing.

Sure, paying for something you've never done before or paying for a loan that someone else took out is something that most people wouldn't do, but on the other hand, no matter how bad it is, it's their own father or family member and there's no one else to answer to except their own family if the gambler who inherited the debt is dead, and after all, the people who will collect the debt are the family and not the dead person.

On the other hand, I would say that you would not have any obligation to pay the debt if you were a nobody, or if the person who owed the debt and died was someone else who was not related to you. Sometimes I like to hear cases similar to this where the parents leave a debt when they die and this is not only the case in gambling, because loan services are generally used for many things, such as business capital or urgent living needs or other things, and still in the end it is the closest people, especially family members who are responsible for it,
624  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Do You See Losing Your Weekly Payment to The Casino on: March 02, 2024, 12:42:08 PM
Sorry to say I will answer this question with questions only if you understand my question then you get your answer of what just happened to you.. here we go! When you places those bets and it happens that you win won't you cash out or you would leave to the casino to support their project?

When you lose your lost is an intentional acts because if that you win there isn't a day you would love to leave the whole payment back to the casino by then I don't even think you will come here to make this post asking people to know if it was a way to support the casino you are promoting meaning if there were winnings you won't cash out or what?

Just answer then you get your answers as well.
Yes, those questions asked would really be reflecting out on what are your intentions since from the start. We do know that there are people who are really that supporting a
project and there are ones who do actually say up such things just because they are really that curious. Just like on the current condition or situation then most of those
people who do get paid on gambling site accounts would definitely be that withdrawing those amounts once they do receive it. It is really just that there are people who are really that
having those plans on trying out to double their weekly pay on just rolling a single dice game on x2 and if it ends up on a win then they would surely be making out that withdrawal.

I actually think this statement is nothing more than a distraction, or they could claim that they lost because they supported the casino that was promoted it's all just an excuse, because I'm sure that if I the situation is reversed, or I mean he gets a win especially in large amounts for example he will definitely cash it out, or apply greed to achieve a larger amount and in the end if the method fails in the sense that they lose then they will again argue with the excuse of "losing to support the casino".

Actually this is not the right way to help the promoted casino or support your casino, this method makes little sense because everyone needs money and if only at that time you won then I'm sure you would prefer money rather than support the promoted casino, so don't be too naive, we are gamblers which is a natural thing if when we win we prefer to cash out rather than end the session by looking for defeat with the excuse of supporting the promoted casino. For myself, to be honest, I rarely gamble with my weekly paycheck, the first reason is because my interest in gambling has begun to wane and the second is that lately I have been haunted by the many needs of life that cannot be tolerated.
625  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: March 01, 2024, 04:30:49 PM
Bayern lost their last away match to Bochum ... Bayern are not doing very well at the moment and are losing points... Freiburg are not in the best shape either, but they have been playing well in recent matches... I would bet here that both teams will score, but I will not predict who will win...
It is possible that the match will end in a draw if you look at the performance they have shown in their last match. But if you ask which team is more convincing in getting points in today's match, of course I still have more confidence in Bayern Munich even though that team lost at home to Bochum and won again at home against Leipzig. However, I also wouldn't be surprised if, for example, the home team Freiburg were able to win by a narrow score in today's match.
Actually Freiburg is not as strong as the previous season, but the problem is that Bayern Munich is also in the same situation, yes they are not as strong as the previous season either, that makes us doubt whether Bayern Munich will be able to win this eprtadningan or not. especially they are also thinking about their match in the Champions League, because they lost the first leg and that makes them have to work even harder in this second leg.

Freiburg will benefit more because they will play as the host in this match, but their record is not that good when playing at times, so still Bayern Munich has a chance to win bigger than them. 2 defeats in the last 5 matches are something unsatisfactory for Bayern Munich, that is what opens up opportunities for Freiburg to give them defeat in this match. Will Thomas Tuchel be able to bring Bayern Munich home 3 points from this match or they have to fail again? I see it looks like Thomas Tuchel is slowly losing his confidence. That happened because Bayern Munich's performance was not convincing as before. Will he end at the end of the season?

Tomorrow Celta Vigo vs Almerķa team match will start in Spanish League. Looking forward to see this match. Thought to bet in support of Celta Vigo team. Hope Celta Vigo team can perform well tomorrow. 5 for bad performance of Almerķa team players.  Did not win any of the matches.Out of 5 matches drew 3 matches lost 2 matches.
Almeria are at the bottom of the table, while Celta Vigo are trying to stay away from the relegation zone which is now just below them. We'll be thinking along the same lines when it comes to predicting who will win this one, and clearly it's Celta Vigo who have a better chance of winning than their opponents, so it makes sense to try your luck by betting on Celta Vigo in this one.

There is nothing to expect from ALmeria, in fact they are the only club that has not won a match this season, which is a very bad record. The 9 points they have collected are the result of 9 draws they received this season and the rest they had to lose. They are also the club that has conceded the most, yes they have conceded 54 goals so far, that is the same number of goals that Real Madrid have scored this season, the difference is that Real Madrid created while they conceded.

As far as Celta Vigo is concerned, they are not a good club either, but when compared to their opponents then they are clearly better than their opponents. But they must also be wary of this opponent, because they could surprise and succeed in recording their first victory this season. This depends on how they play later in the match.
627  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: March 01, 2024, 03:42:45 PM
Arsenal has not won the Premier League title for many years now, and in those years they were not competing for the title. Either Arsenal has missed out on qualifying for the Premier League top four or they will be playing in the European League in the next season. Since Mikel Arteta became Arsenal's head coach, Arsenal almost won the league last season, and Arsenal is also in the Premier League title race this season. There is an improvement at Arsenal now.
Currently, or more precisely this season, after 26 matches played by Arsenal, the team is still in contention for the title because the distance between them is only two points with Liverpool and one point with Manchester City. This means that this season Arsenal are still very good and it is likely that they will continue to improve until the end of the season if the coach can make a good enough rotation of their players so that they don't experience more injuries at the end of the season. But I still have doubts about Arsenal getting the Premier League trophy this season.
Last season they were not really prepared, that's what made them fail at the end of the season and again Manchester City could take advantage of the decline experienced by Arsenal towards the end of the season last season. This season they tried it again and now their points are very close to the club that is in 2nd place and the club that is at the top of the table. They still have a big enough chance to become champions, it is difficult because they must be able to ensure they can be consistent in every match they play in the Premier League.

Despite their failures, but I see Arteta bringing fresh air to Arsenal. At first he was quite doubtful to be able to bring Arsenal to be even better, and now he can prove that he deserves to handle Arsenal. If he can continue to appear consistent, then to win the Premier League title is only a matter of time for Arsenal.

I appreciate the way Arsenal manage their club, yes they always believe in the process. Because how many people protest because they continue to keep Arteta in the coaching chair because they think he is not worthy. But Arsenal don't listen to what they say and they continue to give Arteta the opportunity to build this team from below. Now the results are slowly starting to show, thanks to their patience in giving Arteta time.

The title winning odds for top 3 favourites are like below:



Milan are also given quite much chance for winning the Europa League title after dropping from the Champions League. Bookies must be evaluating it by considering the squad strength as well. But when it comes to performance I don't trust Milan much to tell the truth.  Sad  They aren't very reliable in the Serie A. I can't say they were impressive in the Champions League either.

Would you expect Milan to start playing better here despite not doing it in the Champions League where they could have made more money?
After being eliminated from the Champions League, AC Milan began their journey in the Europa League, and now they are one of the favorites to win the Europa League title along with Liverpool and Leverkusen. For the two clubs that have been here first and they went through the group stages, they are already favorites with their good performances in the group stages.

I myself am focusing on just two clubs in this case, but I also do not rule out the possibility that there will be surprises that occur in this knockout round and it is not impossible that the two clubs that are my favorites will fall first. Last season also happened the same thing, we talked a lot about Arsenal's chances, but in reality they could not advance to the final and that eliminated all predictions from many people who said Arsenal would be in the final. It was Sevilla who were there with AS Roma at that time. Indeed Sevilla became one of the most successful clubs in the Europa League, but this season they had to miss this competition because they had to be the bottom dwellers in the Champions League, and had to fail there.

I actually want Sevilla to be the favorites if they are here, because they always find a way to be in the final and even make it out as champions. They're a big threat, if in the Champions League there's Real Madrid then there's Sevilla, maybe it's a bit of a stretch to compare them, but I think it's a good comparison with different levels.
629  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: March 01, 2024, 03:02:02 PM
Bayern Munich needs to focus on this competition, seems like the Bundelisga is going to the Leverkusen hands (until Leverkusen dont do a Borusia Dortmund clasic finish), so they need to win this key against Lazio, setled down and think and prepare the quarterfinals in a very serious way.

Maybe some key player can return from injury and that can help a lot.
There is no other option for Bayern Munich but to go all out in this match, they are behind and there is no time for them to relax in this match. at least they have to create a quick goal to equalize the aggregate, after that maybe their pressure will be a little less. If they struggle to score quickly then they might get frustrated and that could actually harm them, as they might lose confidence for the next few minutes.

Lazio I think have prepared for it all, yes they will prepare something that allows them to defend solidly in defense. Because they must also predict Bayern Munich will appear to attack and that can exceed what they did in the first leg. 1 goal is not a safe distance for Lazio, that's what they should be aware of. They must be really focused in important matches like this, because the level of their opponents is also actually at a better level than them. I don't know which one is more favorite to go to the next round, what is clear is that both clubs still have the same chance to be in the Champions League quarter-finals this season.
630  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Rich or poor gambler, who should risk more? on: March 01, 2024, 01:37:07 PM
-snip-
Sometimes these gamblers have stable jobs but still have financial goals or aspirations beyond what their regular income can provide. Gambling offers the opportunity to potentially earn additional money and fulfil those desires as it is in the minds of the gamblers. While this may not apply to everyone, some individuals who work may still be facing financial difficulties or be in desperate need of money. They might view gambling as a potential solution to their financial problems or a way to quickly improve their financial situation, even if it involves taking risks. However, experience has shown that gambling creates more problems than it solves.

It's hard to say, someone from the start hopes for additional income from gambling will tend to show a greater potential risk when losing. Because the target of getting additional income ends in losses, it will make a person's emotions more unstable. Chasing losses to win will become the higher potential to happen if they are starting with the hope of additional income. I might be wrong, but chances they will regret the losses experienced because they couldn't get the additional income become the reason for them to made another deposit. In the end, maybe this player will be in a gambling circle with higher risks activity rather than having fun.

Most of the fault lies in the idea of putting "hope" in gambling, hope to win, to change fate, to overcome financial problems or anything related to money, all of this stems from a misunderstanding of what gambling really is, most gamblers only see one side of gambling that is they only see the "chances of winning", and with the mindset and goal of earning then obviously indirectly and unconsciously they will rule out the possibility of risk which obviously can never be eliminated in gambling activities.

It is actually a fact that making gambling as a place to earn or put hopes on victory will ultimately only make someone experience more significant disappointment due to defeat, however the results of gambling will not always be in accordance with your wishes, everything is "coincidental", and this is the reason why gambling is called a probability or lucky activity where everything can never be predicted no matter how skillful you are in doing it, therefore it is ridiculous if anyone makes gambling a place to earn, in fact they will only spin the cycle of chasing victory to restore something that has been lost.
631  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Patience can help alot on: March 01, 2024, 01:16:29 PM
Patience is good for long term target, impatient people can't hold on to their target before they quit, accepting that it won't work. In gambling such people barely wait for a day when they'll win, before they waste all their money looking for a bigger win. Most of them easily get anxious and anxiety gets to them easily due to impatient. As gamblers, being able to know the right moment to take a decision, has to do with observing the game and how it works. All those procedures require patience. Hence, it's a good thing to have patience as a gambler to avoid going after our losses. Which is caused by impatient, due to the fact that such people want to get their money back instantly. Thereby losing more than they should, assuming they had patience. 

an impatient gambler will make bad decisions in the end because he is too hasty in making decisions. he doesn't think about the longer-term impact of the decisions he makes and only cares about his ego now. however, the problem is that many gamblers are more concerned about their ego and greed, and that is what makes them impatient and want to win quickly. especially when gamblers are faced with losing and want to chase wins, they usually become impatient and are more aggressive in chasing money.

this is where it is important to be able to control your emotions and gamble as responsibly as possible, because "one moment of impatience may ruin a whole life" is usually what happens to impatient gamblers.

This is a typical gambler who comes without a correct understanding of gambling, where it is clear that they can do anything, such as applying greed to their gambling activities. On the other hand, it is clear that patience is a trait that must be possessed and applied to gambling, usually a gambler will find it difficult to apply. patience when you are in a situation that is quite disappointing, such as experiencing defeat, where emotions will definitely dominate you and it is also clear that it is very difficult to be able to apply patience when you are in a situation like that.

What happens is that they will actually act more aggressively as you said with the aim of wanting to win quickly or wanting to return something that has been lost, basically it is very difficult to implement some of the things suggested in gambling if they are gambling in the wrong way from the start. or gambling with goals that are not recommended at all, such as prioritizing winning without thinking about the possibility of losing. So I think the solution is none other than being a responsible gambler by re-understanding what gambling actually is. If you already have a proper understanding of the actual concept of gambling then I think it will not be difficult for you to apply whatever is suggested, such as applying patience. when you are in a losing situation and prefer to stop rather than make decisions based on emotion.
632  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is it possible to inherit a gambling debt? on: March 01, 2024, 12:25:23 PM
Yes indeed, this is indeed a very concerning situation, I think it has become a fact and perhaps a habit for a gambler especially those who have entered the stage of addiction where they make loans as an alternative to financing their gambling activities, basically borrowed money is indeed to be borrowed but in general and overall the money is borrowed only when you experience an urgent situation such as needing money for anything that cannot be tolerated or need funds as soon as possible. but unfortunately the gamblers who are addicted take advantage of this situation which in the end as the OP said that in the end it is their children or their family members who have to pay for something that is actually not their responsibility when the gambler dies, But unfortunately gamblers who are already addicted take advantage of this situation which in the end as the OP said that in the end it is their children or their family members who have to pay for something that is actually not their responsibility when the gambler is dead.

But on the other hand I don't think it will be that easy to make a loan, especially if you borrow from a public service agency, because there are guarantees that must be met, usually the lender will check your financial situation along with the weekly or monthly income you get from work, if the amount is quite good in the sense that there is money left over that is not used for other needs then usually they will just give you a loan, but if there is absolutely nothing that can guarantee the trust of the service then they will not just give the loan, and maybe the answer is that gamblers borrow more from the closest people such as friends or relatives.
633  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling for fun and not a way of making money on: March 01, 2024, 11:01:34 AM
You can actually gamble for fun but that's not without the motivation of winning, how would you feel if what you are doing for fun just involves you spending money all the time without receiving anything back from it sometimes, it would actually be more interesting if it was done for fun and still promises to pay you.

But many people actually view gambling from one perspective of getting money and that's why they find it hard to control themselves from not gambling everyday or too much, and since its viewed as something that gives money they would want to give more into it than usual

True, and what is more appropriate in my opinion is to gamble with the aim of fun by minimizing or not putting too much effort into getting a win, after all gambling is a probability activity that only provides "possibilities", meaning there is no certainty whatsoever to actually be able to materialize according to your wishes, and therefore a healthy approach to gambling is when you make it an activity with the aim and priority for entertainment but when you are lucky and win then it is a decision that does not hurt to cash out.

It is true that I also recognize and see that most people always try to make gambling a place to earn or even to change their financial fortunes or make it a solution to financial problems such as paying off debts, honestly this is a worrying mindset because of course with such a mindset and goals in the end will actually make them experience a much worse situation, such as in terms of debt, instead of being able to pay debts but what happens is that they are even more in debt, and this is what will happen when you have the wrong understanding of gambling.
634  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Do You See Losing Your Weekly Payment to The Casino on: March 01, 2024, 10:37:54 AM
snip

First of all, I don't gamble every week; instead, I only gamble every 2 weeks and sometimes even once a month when I'm really busy. Even if I am capable of doing that, I will not gamble every week because that would not be healthy for my lifestyle, especially if you are a family member.

Now regarding your question about whether it's a bad habit, I think only you know what you're doing, whether it's right or not; no one else can say that. Besides, you know what is right or wrong and what is right and wrong.

Yes and I would probably say that that is the right approach to gambling which is always recommended to do reasonable activities or gambling reasonable, not least because after all this is an activity that has a risk that is even greater than you think. We all know how bad the impact of gambling is and we have also seen how the fate or lives of people who have been trapped in the addiction phase, and if we don't want to have the same fate as them then it clearly means try to always minimize involvement in gambling as you do by gambling in moderation.

Basically for people who don't misunderstand gambling, or meaning those who understand and understand what gambling is about they will not be misguided or will not fall into the wrong path or approach to gambling, and this understanding plays an important role in the safety of a gambler during his involvement. Overall gambling has a bad point of view in the eyes of society, not least because of the many impacts felt by those gamblers who try to take advantage of the situation by making gambling a place to earn or to pursue victory when on the other hand gambling is not for that, this is just an activity to fill spare time without having to put any expectations. On the other hand, I agree with you about whether an activity is bad or not depending on how you judge it, the point is if you experience a lot of problems as a result of doing it then it clearly means that it is a bad habit that must be avoided.

Manchester city Vs Newcastle united
Manchester City is always the favorite when they are faced with most clubs from the English League, including Newcastle United. In the quarter-finals they will meet each other, and looking at the existing opportunities, of course we know which club has a big chance of winning this match, yes, it is Manchester City who has a big chance of winning this match.

Newcastle this season is not the same as the Newcastle we saw last season. Last season they performed impressively, they were even able to be ranked in the top 4 of the standings and managed to go to the Champions League even though in the end they had to be eliminated in the group stage. But this season they are very far from what they should be, they cannot maintain the consistency of play they built last season. I think they can maintain that, especially when they have the opportunity when the transfer market comes to strengthen the depth of the squad they have.

Manchester City has the upper hand, even though in the Premier League they are in second place, but that does not change their status as a strong club. This is an opportunity for them to advance to the next round. It also seems interesting to see them meet Liverpool, especially in the final match. I hope that can happen.

Yes there are speculation is in Media that ETH will be leaving Manchester United after this season. Though nothing is certain at the moment. But if Manchester United sack ETH and go for Graham Potter then I think Manchester United is making a grave mistake, just like Chelsea did with Potter. Manchester United is a big club who are used to winning trophies and bringing an average coach won't help them revive anytime soon. There are good coaches out there that they can go for. Antonio Conte won't be a bad option for them if you ask me.
if MU chooses Potter to replace Ten Hag, it won't be much different. what happened was a repeat of this season's poor performance, even when this rumor circulated, many fans and observers already condemned the rumor. Maybe they think that next season if that happens MU will perform worse.
Club management must open their eyes if they want the club to achieve success. Not only bringing in good players, but the coach is the main key to whether the team will play well or not.
I wonder why Manchester United lately always makes unreasonable decisions, if this really happens then it will add to their list of unreasonable decisions in my opinion. Whether they really want to make Manchester United recover or not, in fact, if they want to make this club rise then they have to make carefully considered decisions. I would prefer ETH to remain at Manchester United rather than choosing another coach who didn't show anything special at his previous club.

Actually, there are still many coaches who I think are better, why don't they look for better coaches? I don't mean to say Graham Potter is a bad coach, but if we look at him when he was Chelsea coach then we already know what answer Manchester United should consider.

Actually, not only this time, but the recruitment of players also sometimes makes me wonder at them. I think the real problem lies with their own management, because they always make decisions that have very little benefit for Manchester United. So it is not surprising that many of their supporters are holding demonstrations so that the current owner of Manchester United will immediately sell this club.

🚨🇫🇷 BREAKING: Paul Pogba has been banned from football for four years due to doping.
https://x.com/fabrizioromano/status/1763168414451806688


Should have been one of the greats, big, strong, powerful, quick but no desire and now a cheat.

Top level career over.
All sports news media are now reporting this. And Paul Pogba is currently very, very devastated by the official sanctions he received due to the doping case that befell him. But I still have a few questions. Can he still appeal the sanctions he received?

I haven't followed the news in detail. Because I only just read briefly. And it is very unfortunate that he, who is a talented player and has received a lot of attention in the last few years, turns out that now he has to stop playing football or get a long ban from playing football. and I doubt he will come back once he is done with the sanctions he received.
I haven't read the news in detail, but indeed this is the end of Paul Pogba's career after being officially declared doping. I wonder why players who have abilities like him still do stupid things like this, because they must already know that the use of doping is prohibited and as a professional player like him it should be able to make him realize not to use something that is prohibited. Previously there were many cases of players like this, it should be a lesson for anyone not to do it.

He is now 30 years old, and if he receives a 4-year suspension, that means he will be back at 34 years old. The problem is, will anyone be able to accept him again? Even if there is, will he give a good game? Because resting for 4 years is really long and will greatly affect his performance.

I think he will appeal the sanction he received, yes at least maybe if he appeals it will make his sentence period will be cut and not have to accept a 4-year sentence. He must regret it, but now there is nothing to regret because everything has already happened. It's just that this should be a lesson for any professional player not to do stupid things.

In Ligue 1 PSG does not have a fairly balanced rival and they will continue to dominate the league forever. The difference in quality, club finances and resources possessed by PSG will be very difficult for other clubs to break. Now what PSG is doing is no longer talking about how they can get the Ligue 1 title but how they can compete in the Champions League competition. Because when it comes to Ligue 1 they don't need other great players and the quality they currently have is enough.

Luis Enrique has an obligation to manage the team and the big targets given to him are how PSG can compete in the Champions League. Their performance has not decreased and in fact I see it is much better after Luis Enrique became coach, but it is not yet fully optimal because it may take time for PSG to build a much stronger squad.
Say that to Bayern Munich, they're always become a champion in Bundesliga for a decade which mean in there there's no balanced rival too, but they're always become one of favorite in Champions League. Remember we're talking about no rival and Champions League, not only the current season since Bayern Munich now has a new rival i.e. Bayer Leverkusen.

PSG is just an all star club without any strategy, that's why they always lose against all star club that play with a strategy.
It's interesting what you say about Paris Saint Germain being an All Star club with no strategy, but I seem to agree with you. They don't lack star players every season, but they also always struggle in the Champions League, I even forgot the last time they played well in the Champions League, if I'm not mistaken it was in the semi-final against Real Madrid? Correct me if I'm wrong.

They're a strong giant in Ligue 1, but that's not the case when they're in the Champions League, because in the Champions League they've got really balanced competitors that are even better than them. Real Madrid, Manchester City are the popular names in the Champions League these days, and when compared to them, Paris Saint Germain are still below the level of the two clubs I mentioned.

I don't really want to say this, but indeed they only have money, not strategy. They should be able to improve themselves with their excellent financial capabilities to be more promising. And what they are doing now is squandering money that does not make them better even though they have star players whose prices are very high.

I dont know why Cristiano keeps making that idiot behavior and made him a clown when the fans chants about Messi, man you CANT fall into that shit, you are a well growing man of about 40 years old, come one you have to be much more mature.

The good thig is all that works like a fuel for him and he keep pushing to be the best.
Cristiano may be 40 years old, but we've known from the start what kind of attitude he'd have if anyone underestimated him. He always wants to show that they're wrong for underestimating him, and I think that's the response of each individual, we can't say they have to mature by being more relaxed and friendly, Ronaldo is like that.

The crowd still chants things like that anyway, yes maybe I understand it's the pressure they put on the players. But they must also be prepared for the response that the player will make, in this case not only Ronaldo but for all players.

Maybe some people will be disappointed with his response, but others will think it is normal because this is not the only time he did it, or in other words those who already know what Ronaldo's personality is like will be able to guess what he will do when he receives such treatment. I may be on the side that can already predict what he will do, because I myself have seen a lot of what he is like, and maybe before when the controversy he did when he was still with Manchester United.

Any gambler who does not understand that gambling should be a means of entertainment, will not be easy to his losses. This is because he will never stop chasing his losses, hoping that will win the next game, before you know it he will become addicted to gambling.

It is good when you are addicted, and you know that you are an addict, so that you can work on your addiction, but when you don't know that you are an addict, you will not be able to limit the rate at which you gamble, and you will not quite gambling until it has done great harm to you. Gambling is a try your luck thing and not a thing that we should put all our hope on.
if gambling is entertainment. Why do gambling advertisements actually trap potential players with the phrase double your money, or something similar that leads to more winnings?
and many are trapped by this. and consider gambling to be a place to make quick profits.

However I will always believe and will only treat gambling as entertainment and maybe I will also suggest this to many of my friends who are also fellow gamblers, on the other hand I will answer your question which is quite simple, gambling is for entertainment but why do gambling advertisements say that this is a place to multiply? You must understand what is meant by "advertising" or "promotion" where their goal is to lure many players to play at their casino sites, and about multiplying money actually it is nothing more than a phrase to make people "tempted".

Only careless or even stupid people who don't look at things from different sides with a rational point of view will just get stuck with the phrase "double up", because you should put a big question mark in your mind about what exactly is behind gambling besides the chance of multiplying, and if you are able to think rationally then I am sure you will know the real facts. You're bound to come across such promotions in other things as well and it's not just in gambling, we have to understand that promotions are usually more often related to "manipulation".
