We have only Manchester City players dominating the entire match. Manchester City players have 74% ball possession today. They made a total of 27 shots. Manchester City players attacked a lot throughout the match. On the other hand, Manchester United played completely defensively. Manchester United players only made 3 shots in 90 minutes. Manchester United has no chance of being in the top four of the points table.
The main reason for Man City players to dominate the match was because of the defensive formation Ten Hag asked his players to switch to after getting their first goal which is always not favorable against Manchester City.
Chelsea that’s not doing well this season were able to draw Manchester City both home and away which proved that Manchester City is not as good as people are expecting this season.
Defensive formation can indeed influence the flow of a match. Ten Hag really had contributions for Manchester City's dominance by overlooking the necessity to fight back while they were leading. Manchester City's dominace stems from their approach to the game with combination of tactical flexibility, individual skill, and strategic decision-making.

Prioritizing defensive solidity over attacking initiative made his team losed control of the midfield and allowed Manchester City to dictate the tempo of the game. Manchester City's style of play is characterized by tactical flexibility, wherein they can seamlessly transition between different formations. Ten Hag seemed having limited idea to face well-prepared Manchester City. His transitional attacks didnt work well, because his midfield played with uncoordinated sceme of display.

Those people thinks that if they place a bet in many matches can gives them big winning. Well, that thought is not wrong but they must know what should they choose so they can win. If they just follows other people suggestion while they don't know about the match, they will not have a big chance to win but only will get lose their money. It's why if you want to place bet in many picks, you should know each matches so you can increase your chance to win. Most people place bets in many pick from the predictions that they got from one or more channels without knowing who they are. If you don't know much about the other matches, it's better you only pick one bets to the match that you know so you have a chance to win.
Placing bets on multiple matches may seem like a strategy to increase potential winnings, but it's only effective if done with careful consideration and knowledge. Relying solely on other people's predictions or tips without understanding the matches yourself is just big risk. I dont see any joy if we don't test our own knowledge and luck. Understanding of the teams, players, and factors may influence the outcome of each match.

If you're considering placing bets on multiple matches, you need to dedicate time and effort to research and analysis for each match individually. This allows you to assess the strengths and weaknesses of each team and make well-informed betting decisions based on your own insights. If you're not confident in your knowledge of certain matches, it would be better to focus on betting on matches that you have a better understanding of. Quality over quantity is key, and placing bets on fewer matches with a higher level of confidence can often yield better results.

True. After Bayern Munich was defeated by Leverkusen, we all assume Bayern Munich will try to win every remaining matches to keep the hope for the title. But it seems no change in Bayern Munich performance, they still performance inconsistently. I don't know why Bayern Munich often got a lose from small teams and they got a draw against big teams. I'm sure Tuchel never underestimates small teams in Bundesliga, it is because they already got defeats several times from small teams.

Tuchel may have a problem with Bayern Munich players. They seem to have no good relationship, that's why Tuchel is difficult to motivate the players. If there is no change, Bayern Munich probably will finish as the runner up only. And Tuchel seems to leave Bayern Munich after the end of the season. Tuchel likely gets lack supports in Bayern Munich.

I think Bayern are feeling underpessure with Leverkusen keep performing consistently. Knowing your rival goes unbeaten can create the feeling of inferiority. Maybe Bayern players are too spoilt by continous success that makes them shock with the fact that they have to compete agianst a 'perfect' team this season. This situation is uncommon for them when they need maximum result every game to just stay close to their competitor.

I think speculation about strained relationships or lack of support for the coach is natural, but just the sign of lacking harmony cant be unseen with the inconsistent performances. I think Tuchel has no aura to manage a big club which have rooted tradition like Bayern Munchen. Regardless of the challenges Bayern Munich may be facing, overcoming adversity often requires patience, resilience, and teamwork.

In addition, tracing down on his behavior as a child also matters, many therapists, tend to discuss the person's past and figure out ways to get him out of addiction.

We all love our pasts, that's why we are happy whenever we get in touch with a childhood friend. Therapists can tap into this trick, as happiness is the goal, since the gambler has been sad and in pain during his period of addiction. Keeping him happy will drag him closer to us, and he'd never feel any need to avoid us, once that has been achieved, the player will be one step closer to being addiction free.   
Indeed, many therapists recognize the significance of understanding an individual's past in order to address underlying issues contributing to addiction. Exploring childhood experiences can help therapists identify potential triggers, traumas, or unresolved emotions that may be driving addictive behaviors. Tapping into positive memories from childhood can be a powerful therapeutic tool for fostering happiness and emotional well-being.

Reconnecting with joyful experiences from the past can provide a sense of comfort, nostalgia, and connection, helping individuals navigate the challenges of addiction recovery with greater resilience and optimism. By creating a safe and non-judgmental space for exploration and healing, we can encourage individuals to open up about their experiences and work collaboratively towards recovery.

I believe that when we gamble with our friends when high on drugs or drinks, we may argue over minor issues. Since we are unable to regulate our emotions, we only think about achieving our objective of winning more in order to continue engaging in our vices. For instance, the highs of winning could make us feel more joyful and may even cause us to overestimate our own abilities, but the lows of losing might make us feel even more irritated and despairing. When we experience this kind of emotion, it can lead to fights between friends, particularly when there are differences in the results of bets or what constitutes fair play.
We may also take things too seriously. For example, even if a friend makes a joke or remark that was meant to be humorous, we may find it offensive, and this could result in arguments.
It's bizzare the fact that gamblers are people who love to drink alcohol. Substance intoxication can heighten emotions and alter perceptions that leads people to prioritize the pursuit of winnings while disregarding the potential consequences or impact on relationships. The euphoria of winning can amplify feelings of joy and confidence that potentially leads to overconfidence and impulsive behavior. The disappointment of losing can exacerbate feelings of frustration, anger, and despair, increasing the likelihood of conflict and discord among friends.

Under the influence of substances, people may be more prone to misinterpretations, misunderstandings, and heightened sensitivity to perceived slights or offenses. This can escalate minor disagreements into full-blown arguments, particularly if there are differences in interpretation of fair play or outcomes of bets. Trues gamblers usually know to avoid the substances for healthier and more positive social interactions that ensures the focus remains on enjoyment and camaraderie rather than potential conflicts or misunderstandings.

Indeed, online and mobile gambling has become more popular, and it's led to some significant changes in the industry. For instance, online gambling has made it possible for people to gamble at the comfort of their home, although this also has its own disadvantages but on the other hand, it has made things a lot more convenient for people to gamble without going through the stress of leaving their home, especially for people who dislike crowd. And it has also made it possible for gamblers to access a wider range of games and gaming experience.
This is some of the major transformations that online and mobile gambling have brought to the industry. The ability to gamble from the comfort of home has significantly expanded the reach of the gambling industry. This convenience is particularly beneficial for people who dont like to be in a crowd or noisy environment. There are people who like to enjoy their games in a more relaxed setting.

Mobile gambling platforms offer various games and gaming experiences that provide something for everyone regardless of their preferences or skill levels. From traditional casino games like slots and poker to sports betting and live dealer games, the variety and diversity of options available online are virtually endless. But online and mobile gambling also come with their own set of challenges and risks. Easy access and 24/7 availability of these platforms can potentially lead to issues such as excessive gambling and addiction if not managed responsibly.
387  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Decentralized vs Centralized Gambling....Which do you prefer? on: March 02, 2024, 10:13:07 PM
Centralized or decentralized gambling?

But I prefer centralized gambling platforms, because usually the services they offer are more reliable, safe, and licensed directly under the gaming authority. So it can provide safe and fair gambling services to players. However, that doesn't mean that I don't really like decentralized casinos, it's just that for long-term use I prefer playing at centralized casinos which have a safer system for the players.
The preference for centralized gambling platforms is mainly for safety where gambling is legal, because centralized casinos typically operate under established gaming authorities, which enforce strict regulations to ensure fair play and protect the interests of players. There are assurance of licensing and regulation can indeed provide peace of mind to players, knowing that they are participating in a gaming environment that prioritizes security and fairness.

Centralized platforms also tend to offer robust customer support services, responsive dispute resolution mechanisms, and transparent terms and conditions, further enhancing the overall player experience. Decentralized casinos offer unique advantages such as transparency and autonomy, but they may still face challenges in terms of regulatory compliance, security vulnerabilities, and user trust. The choice between centralized and decentralized gambling platforms is a matter of personal preference, with each offering its own set of benefits and drawbacks.

Gambling only for FUN is a nice thing to do but mostly when people lose money, they don't feel the fun in it. The attention of gaining (and not losing) money is so much involved in gambling that the fun in gambling is directly proportional to our wins. Similarly, if we lose in gambling, there is only sorrow and no fun.
By the way, if we combine risk management along with the mindset that we are not here for money gaining, then it will be best as the gamblers won't lose much because of money management and all the wins will be considered as bonuses as the main purpose of gambling is to have FUN and ENTERTAINMENT.
That is a dichotomy of gambling for fun versus the emphasis on monetary gains. Indeed, the allure of winning money can overshadow the enjoyment of the gambling experience itself. When people focus solely on the potential for financial gain, the thrill of gambling becomes intrinsically tied to the outcome of each wager. Adopting a mindset that prioritizes risk management and views gambling primarily as a form of entertainment can help mitigate the negative effects of losses.

Incorporating risk management strategies can further enhance the enjoyment of the experience while minimizing potential losses. When gamblers view any winnings as bonuses rather than the primary goal, they can shift the focus away from monetary gains that allows them to derive satisfaction from the entertainment value of gambling itself. Striking a balance between the thrill of gambling and responsible behavior is key to maximizing enjoyment while minimizing the potential negative consequences.

University isn't the sole path to success, but ignoring it? It's shortsighted. Every sort of education is valuable. The world is replete of self-made magnates without degrees, but let's not forget higher education. It's about the journey, new ideas, and critical thinking, not just the degree

As false as the idea that degrees guarantee prosperity is the idea that they're outmoded. Your interpretation of the experience, knowledge, and talents is key. As the employment market changes, adaptability is essential, and universities can teach you that. However, education continues after graduation. Successful people learn throughout their lives, whether in school, workshops, or life. Never stop learning, whether you go to university or not. Education is for enlightenment, not just employment
It's true that a university degree isn't the sole path to success, but dismissing its importance altogether would indeed be shortsighted. Education in all its forms holds inherent value that contributes to personal growth, intellectual development, and critical thinking skills. Indeed, the journey of education extends far beyond the attainment of a degree. It's about embracing new ideas, challenging assumptions, and cultivating a lifelong thirst for knowledge.

Universities provide a structured environment that fosters intellectual curiosity and teaches invaluable skills such as adaptability, problem-solving, and collaboration-qualities that are essential in navigating an ever-changing employment landscape. Success is multifaceted and can be achieved through various paths, not solely through formal education. The key lies in how people interpret and apply their experiences, knowledge, and talents to create opportunities for themselves. As the employment market evolves, adaptability becomes increasingly crucial. Universities play a vital role in instilling this adaptability by teaching students how to learn, think critically, and adapt to new challenges.

...

And I agree with you in the area of playing and losing on the casino, that is not support either, because if the player had won, he or she would have withdrawn the money, he or she wouldn't have left the money on the casino for them to take.
So, losing money to a casino and considering it as supporting the casino is like one living in self denial, knowing that you lost something but trying by all means to tell yourself you didn't, it's still a good and valid way to quickly or in the fastest way, get over a loss, but it will still hurt when you tell yourself you supported a casino, when the casino didn't even know you lost money on their site, let alone telling you "thank you for the support".  Grin
Indeed, it can be a form of self-denial to try to rationalize or minimize the impact of losses by framing them as supporting the casino. It sounds just funny to hear someone supports a business institution. Maybe it provides a temporary sense of consolation to view losses in this light, but It's a coping mechanism to try to reframe the experience in a more positive light, it doesn't alter the financial outcome or lessen the emotional impact of the loss.

The casino remains indifferent to individual wins or losses. From their perspective, each transaction is simply part of the business of gambling. Recognizing and accepting losses for what they are, financial setbacks, can be difficult, but necessary step in the process of moving forward. There are emotions that accompany losses and to seek healthier coping mechanisms that don't involve self-deception or denial. While losses may sting in the moment, confronting them with honesty and self-awareness can pave the way for a more sustainable and balanced approach to gambling in the future.

There is no such thing as gambling without limitations. However, a gambler may choose between following a certain limitation or not. If the gambler chooses not to follow any limitations, then he doesn't need to worry about any limitations at all.
Yeah, and that's the reason why many gamblers are becoming addicted and suffering from its consequences. The thing is, limitation is the aspect wherein people will know when to stop, and they know no matter what happens if they reach it, they need to stop what they are doing. But in some cases, gamblers are exceeding their limitations, or without them, they are going beyond their limitations in gambling in terms of financial state, and from their numerous crimes or bad happenings,.

Even if we tell them to limit their gambling to what they only have for allocation to gambling, nothing will happen if we are not the ones that will help them, but yeah, we can't dictate and mendle other people's lives. If they choose to abandon their gambling limitations, then so be it; they are the ones that will suffer from the consequences and will lose their path.
It's always important to set limitations in gambling, because there is always potential consequences of exceeding those boundaries. Limitations serve as a crucial safeguard against the adverse effects of excessive gambling that helps people recognize when to pause and reassess their behavior. But indeed, despite efforts to encourage responsible gambling practices, people may still choose to disregard their limitations that leads to detrimental outcomes. While we can offer guidance and support, gamblers must take responsibility for their actions and the consequences that follow.

It's true that we cannot control or dictate the decisions of others, especially when it comes to deeply personal matters like gambling behavior. The consequences of exceeding gambling limitations can be severe, ranging from financial difficulties to legal issues and strained relationships. It's a painful reality that people may need to experience it before recognizing the need for change. While we may not be able to directly intervene in their life, we can still offer support, guidance, and resources to those who may be struggling.

The thing is that if you are waged with the responsibility of taking care of maybe two to three mouths, then you will know the reason why people actually complained about reckless gamblers being stupid because if anything makes you fall under that category, no one will clear tell you but the consequences that follows the actions of your reckless gambling will make you really understand the ethics of actually gambling responsibly.
Absolutely.. the responsibility of having family to provide the needs has big gravity to financial decisions, including those related to gambling. When people have loved ones relying on them for support, the repercussions of reckless gambling extend far beyond personal losses. The consequences of such actions can be profound and far-reaching that affect not only the individual gambler but also their family members who depend on them for financial stability and security.

Experiencing the tangible effects of reckless gambling, such as financial strain, debt, and the inability to meet basic needs, can serve as a wake-up call that imply the importance of responsible gambling practices. In such circumstances, people are often compelled to reevaluate their behavior and prioritize responsible decision-making to ensure the well-being of themselves and their loved ones. Ethical and practical implications of gambling irresponsibly are important for for people to gain a deeper understanding of the importance of exercising restraint and setting limits when engaging in gambling activities.

They will only suffer losses if they do not understand that gambling is entertainment. They will tend to continue playing gambling even without stopping because they will think to keep trying to win their gambling game.
It will only increase the amount of loss to be greater than before because they did not think about limiting their gambling and just wanted to try to win. They should stop restoring their defeat by gambling and thinking about preventing the next defeat.
Before we become a gambling addict, we should immediately limit our gambling activities and also limit the money and time we use to play gambling. It will not be worth it if you are addicted to gambling because it will cause a huge loss for you.
There are surely psychological aspects of gambling and the risks associated with unchecked behavior. Indeed, understanding that gambling is primarily a form of entertainment is pivotal. When people view it solely as a means to win money or recoup losses, they can easily fall into the trap of chasing losses that leads to escalating financial and emotional turmoil.

Chasing losses behavior can exacerbate losses further that creates a vicious cycle of financial depletion and emotional distress.
Rather than focusing solely on recovering losses, people should shift their mindset towards preventing future losses by adopting responsible gambling practices from the outset. Acknowledging the potential consequences of gambling addiction and taking proactive steps to limit gambling activities can safeguard individuals from significant harm and financial detriment.
394  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which of these betting Statements Do you Agree or Disagree With? on: March 01, 2024, 10:17:19 PM
I want to believe that we all agree that our betting budget should be within 5% -10% of our monthly income as responsible gamblers. However, our perspective on sports betting differs. Look at the gambling sentences and indicate which of the statements you agree or disagree with. You could also write a brief explanation for your standpoint
No matter the platform a person is gambling with, a favorable  gambling limit of 5%-10% or even lesser should be encouraged. I have seen sport bettors who out of love for a particular team stake very huge amount in favour of their favourite team to win. This doesn't always go well when their favourite team eventually loses. Gamblers (especially sport bettors) need to keep sentiments aside and place bets that will not have negative impacts on them if they lose.
That's sensible and pragmatic on conservative gambling limits. Emotional attachments to specific teams or outcomes can sometimes cloud judgment that leads people to wager large amounts, which can have adverse consequences if the outcome doesn't align with their expectations. A gambling limit of a certain affordable amount of overall bankroll implies a more responsible approach to sports betting that can mitigate the potential for significant financial losses. People adopting this way can enjoy the excitement of betting on sports while minimizing the risk of financial strain or emotional distress if their bets don't yield the desired results.

Keeping sentiments when placing bets is not a gambler attitude at all. Gamblers know the importance of making informed and rational decisions based on objective analysis rather than subjective biases. It's natural to have preferences or allegiances in sports, but these sentiments shouldn't have influence in betting behavior, because It won't be maintaining a balanced and responsible approach to gambling.

I think that gambling will just evolve like every other venture with more options and flexibility added as technology evolves. Like you already said, the integration of cryptocurrency payment into gambling have expanded the scope and participation of gambling, bringing the necessary accessibility that cryptocurrency offers. The advent of AI will also continue to play a role like it is already doing in the support system of some casinos and with time the scope of AI involvement will expand.
You're absolutely right in noting the evolutionary trajectory of gambling. Technology will always continues to shape its landscape. The integration of cryptocurrency payments has indeed widened the accessibility and participation in gambling activities that reflects the broader trend of digital currencies reshaping various industries. The advent of artificial intelligence (AI) has begun to leave its mark on the gambling industry, primarily through its support systems in some casinos. The potential advancement of AI technology for involvement in various aspects of gambling, from predictive analytics to personalized gaming experiences, is likely to expand significantly.

Its ability to analyze vast amounts of data in real-time can enhance player engagement, optimize operational efficiency, and even assist in responsible gambling measures. Technology will continue to evolve with innovations like cryptocurrency integration and AI-driven advancements reshaping the way people engage with and perceive gambling activities. Adapting to these changes while maintaining a focus on responsible gaming practices will be key for the industry's continued growth and sustainability.

Is there a little regret or do you not care because the money you lose in gambling is a necessity for you, so you don't care about the crypto you have lost in gambling for the past two years?
There is of course because it's money. But when I remember my worse decision and that's selling too early, this is not different from those gambled coins that I've made. It's like that I am always making such wrong decisions that I need to correct myself from doing so. That money that I should have can help me for the better but it did helped me on that particular time when I was able to gamble with it. So, that's in between that there's a regret because I can't stop myself thinking and remembering it but at same time, there was a satisfaction level despite it's not that much because it helped me somehow on those tough situations.
Regret and hindsight often play a significant role in reflecting on such decisions, especially when they involve financial outcomes. There is a sense of missed opportunity and potential regret for not holding onto the asset longer, potentially gaining more from it. It's natural to dwell on what could have been, especially when it comes to financial matters. The money from selling early served a purpose at the time that provides relief or support during tough situations. This realization brings a level of satisfaction, albeit tinged with the recognition that it might not have been the optimal long-term choice.

Navigating the tension between regret and satisfaction in such situations can be challenging. It's important to acknowledge and learn from past decisions while also recognizing the circumstances and context that influenced them. You will be able to can strive to make more informed choices that draws from both past experiences and future goals.

If you say the match will be exciting then I really agree with you, but if you say this match is a place of proof and prestige, to be honest I'm quite confused because PSG doesn't need to prove anything in Ligue 1  because at the moment the trophy is actually within reach PSG, while for Monaco I don't think they have anything to prove because after becoming Ligue 1 champions in 2016-2017, Monaco are no longer able to get it and are only focused on getting into the top 3 like they did this season, if you hopes PSG lose of course I also want that to happen, but it looks like it will be very difficult for PSG lose in the league and the proof is that this season PSG has only lost 1 time.

...

It's true that PSG may not have as much to prove in domestic competitions compared to other clubs, given their dominant position in the league and their consistent success in recent seasons. The ability of their squad is unmatched by any other teams in the league. It has reached the boring level to see PSG dominate to league. Each season when they are at the top of the table, we can already say that they would win the league easily.

Monaco may not be in contention for the league title as they were in 2016-2017, their focus on securing a top-three finish and potentially challenging for European qualification still carries significance. Their inconsistence has made them having to forgetting their title charge this season. Now each match presents an opportunity for them to showcase their capabilities and compete at a high level. While hoping for PSG to lose might be a sentiment shared by some fans of rival clubs, the reality is that PSG's dominance in Ligue 1 makes it challenging for any team to defeat them.

To be honest, Arsenal just don't have it in themselves to win a Premier League title yet.  Sad  You know how they destroyed a big chance to make it last season. I think that nobody would be surprised to see a similar ending for them this season as well. I'm saying this despite being aware of how impressive they are recently. They are one of the most scoring teams but being consistent is not a thing they are the best at.

But one thing is clear that Arteta is a great manager. I believe Arteta could be an alternative to Guardiola in case he leaves Manchester City.  Smiley
Arsenal dont have strong enough mentality to compete against Manchester City and Liverpool. Despite their impressive attacking prowess, they have faltered when it matters most. Their missed opportunitie in previous seasons is evidence of the importance of having strong mentality to fight till the end. It's undeniable that under Mikel Arteta's guidance, Arsenal has shown signs of progress and improvement, but their young squad find it hard to handle the high level of pressure.

Arteta may has ability to instill discipline and structure within the team, his influence could position them for future success with continued development and investment, but they need more than that if he has to compete with Guardiola and Klopp. Winning the premier league in the current era requires 90+ points which is not easy to achieve with young squad. I think Arteta himself not having experience to win big trophy is another factor.

The compensation is quite small (compared to the compensation paid for football players), so any top club will easily hire Xabi if there is mutual interest. The question is what he will choose. I would be interested to see him in Liverpool, there is room to grow there and there is a hegemon that needs to be overthrown (almost like Bayern haha). If Xabi goes to Bayern, it will be boring - I think he will easily win the Bundesliga 5 times in a row, the only interest will be how successful he will be in the Champions League. I wouldn't want everything to be so boring.
It's common that transfer fee for manager is low compared to transfer fee for players, because a manager has potential to be sacked that makes the club being in disadvantage position. Xabi Alonso has the decision ultimately lies with him by considering factors such as the potential for growth, competitiveness, and personal preferences. Liverpool, with its rich history and ambitious goals, could provide an exciting challenge for Xabi.

He has stated that he is a fan of the club with experience as a player that makes him having emotional connection and familiarity that makes him easier to adapt in the club. This is his opportunity to contribute to the club's ongoing success and perhaps play a role in dethroning a dominant force adds an extra layer of allure. On the other hand, joining Bayern Munich might offer a more immediate path to titles, given their consistent success in the Bundesliga, but the prospect of continuous triumphs might lack the thrill of overcoming obstacles and facing new challenges.

Will it be a good thing or a bad thing? What do you think makes the gambling experience the best in your opinion? Pick and choose any / all questions to be answered- I can't wait to see what everyone says.
The new evolution they are bringing to the gambling industry is really helping, like the new games and bringing the games closer to the people I see, such as the best way to gamble stress-free and easy to access from the comfort of one's home. 
 
The new game that they might now bring to the gambling industry is this 3D or HD game, or, as they call it, this kind of game where you connect a device to yourself and control the game. Such a game might be introduced to the gambling industry, where a gambler will have the option to control his own team, and his skill might determine if he is to win or not. If this is not already active, it might not be long until they get it in there. 
Advanced technology has brought significant changes to the gambling industry that makes it more accessible and enjoyable for many people. The integration of 3D or HD games, along with virtual reality and other immersive technologies, is an exciting evolution that enhances the gaming experience. These advancements not only make gambling more visually appealing but also offer a more interactive and engaging platform for players.

The idea of introducing games where players can control their own teams or outcomes adds a new skill and strategy to the mix. It creates a more personalized and dynamic experience, where individual abilities can influence the outcome of the game.
