Aston Villa were surprisingly marvelous today, they had a very good performance today dominating and controlling the game in both halves, when Manchester United came out with much pressure I thought Aston Villa would succumb to the pressure and let United get an equalizer but they proved they were not to be underestimated and showed resilience through out the game. A well deserved win today for Emery and Aston Villa and I hope they can continue this way until the World cup break.
The reality today is that Manchester United didn't live up to all the fans' expectations. They lost surprisingly after in the last few matches appear rather satisfactory. Aston Villa turned out to be different, they controlled the first half and the beginning of the second half and managed to punish Manchester United by not scoring through their own players without an own goal Jacob Ramsey.

Without Varane it looks like Martinez is not really able to keep his defense perfectly so Manchester United must concede 3 goals in this match. So it's true that Aston Villa really shouldn't be underestimated even if they have been inconsistent so far.

It has been a difficult season for Liverpool so far with just four wins from 12 Premier League games, drawing four and losing four. There are only two rounds of Premier League games to come before the World Cup break and Liverpool will be hoping to end it on a high.
The stats are bad, of course and I think there are a lot of people who have doubts about Liverpool in any game. But Liverpool are very different in the Champions League where they managed to win 5/6 match, obviously this is something strange about them or maybe the Premier League is much tighter now?

Liverpool's chances seem good and I also don't think it's bad to expect Tottenham to win, however Tottenham who are currently in the top 4 will probably try to keep it from Newcastle's pressure. Tottenham are playing at home, this will affect my analysis of who is good to win.

Having said that, a top team can turn up on any day, even if they were previously struggling. When Liverpool played Manchester City, quite a lot of football fans expected City to roll over them, but even though Liverpool were not in form in that period, they had to step up and produce a performance that earned them the victory, so there should be no writing Liverpool off against Spurs, they are definitely capable of winning the game, and they just might.
There are no definite words in the match, it should be, my friend. There were many disappointing matches and some that were difficult to predict. Liverpool this season is too difficult to predict especially in the Premier League, however they are still a top team that cannot be ignored and underestimated. Winning against Manchester City and West Ham did not seem to make them better because they are still beaten by two relegation zone teams namely Nottingham and Leeds.

Meanwhile, Liverpool must be willing to be in 9th place because they are adrift of many points by the big 4 teams. Liverpool have one match in hand that they might still be able to take full points of, but if it still loses then Liverpool really need to be there for a long time.

Just to inform that today the loan of @pandukelana seems to have been handed over to roycilik by dewo_sat of Rp. 20,500,000 or the equivalent of 0.064 btc lent. Soon, maybe Roycilik will pay it off to Darkstar_ as a lender. This is something that seems hard to believe because if dewo_sat is not an honest person, then this loan will never be repaid. $1300 is a high value in my country, but it pays off by the users who accept the trust.

On this occasion I would also like to thank dewo_sat who has successfully paid off @pandukelana's loan (your friend/relative), you are one of the most trusted users in my opinion.

And today I've paid to Roycilik with IDR, equal with 0.064 BTC nowday.

FYI: Saya sudah menerima dana sebesar 20.500.000 atau setara sekitar 0.064btc dari om dewo_sat, sayang nya akun beliau belum bisa di recovery (lupa pasword)


Saya akan segera menghubingi darkstar untuk menyelesaikan permasalah hutang piutang Almarhum



Coming back to the main purpose of this thread, maybe I will expect the admin to lock @pandekelana's account if the loan is paid off. So that it can prevent anyone from login into his account for any purpose in the future. Thanks also to all of you who have provided suggestions and some good arguments.

It is a big celebration for AC Milan, as at last season they got kicked out in the group stage after finishing fourth in group C with only one game won. This season they got so much improvement  having played against RB Salzburg , Chelsea and Domino Zagreb and their worst performances was against Chelsea both home and away. Giroud made soo much contribution in seeing the proceed to the next stage. He made the biggest contributions equating his goals to his assists.
But unfortunately Milan is a non-seeded team that will most likely face other top teams in the last 16. Milan's journey in the last 16 may be very difficult considering the current seeded team looks very strong like Manchester City, Bayern Munich or Real Madrid.

I wouldn't be surprised if Milan's journey had to stop in the last 16 this season if Real Madrid, Bayern Munich or Manchester City were the opponents. But if it's Porto, Tottenham or Benfica then I think Milan have a chance to qualify for the next round.
2048  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why does everyone want to trade? on: November 03, 2022, 11:11:00 AM
People who are new to trading believe they can start investing and making money right away, to the point where they borrow money to invest because they don't see any other options. They also believe that choosing binary options is a win-or-lose game with completely different risks for novice traders. In my opinion, this is not the best course of action. If you decide to start trading, you must be willing to lose money in order to gain experience.Should learn to manage risk.
To get started, they must understand what the basics are including the difference between investing and trading. Many beginners misunderstand these two things, and they often say trading is an investment so they will find it very difficult to control their emotions.

If someone asks me to teach them to trade, then I prefer to ask them to learn about these two things first so they can be consistent towards their goals. Trading is something that is very likely to make beginner's mindset change quickly due to the volatility of the price, and this will probably lead to the reason why they lose in the end. Even if investing and trading have the same end goal (profit) then I think the strategy and management are very different.
2049  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Parents And Their Children In Gambling.. on: November 03, 2022, 11:00:01 AM
Addiction has no age. Wether you are an adult or not, everything which is too much should be stopped.
If it is on gambling, then it is clearly very bad to continue without realizing what the effect will be in the long term.

Privillege indeed has many sides; you can use it as an advantage in life or it may consume you as an individual to be too comfortable with life and with lacking responsibility of different things. In this case, parents themselves are guilty of what happened to their child but let's end it that way. As long as they are aware between right and wrong, behaviors can still be changed for a better. If rehabilitation would be needed then so be it, because if nothing will be done in order to stop a behavior expect the worst such as leaving them all with empty-handed or them being uncomfortable with life without this activity which hooked them up.
Demographics is probably the reason why a child is free to do anything beyond his parents' control when he is 18+. In my country gambling is still the reason why you are said to be a bad person to be guided, obviously this is the norm in society which may differ from country to country. But whatever it is, I don't think it's a big deal for the billionaires out there to be afraid of because they might really want to see their kids enjoy a life of luxury or whatever.
2050  Other / Meta / Re: [POLL] Should there be a 🍀 BTC AIRDROP 🍀 to Bitcointalk Merit Sources on: November 03, 2022, 10:48:40 AM
Mixed feeling here.

As LoyceV said, of course I would like to stack more sats, basically doing what I already doing for free.

There is one aspect that would make it worse: being paid to do something is like a job; and a job requires a contract, and standards to be followed.

I now enjoy the possibility of deciding what to do with my merits what I think it is in the best interest of the forum.
If I were paid, I guess I couldn’t have the same freedom.

Maybe those constraint wouldn’t be so tight, maybe yes. It would be different by the way.

I answered “curious” to the idea. But I fear that there would be many unintended consequences to this, risking breaking something it has been working pretty much effectively since a few years.
If merit source are paid for, then I'm sure there will be a lot of drama going on in this forum about merit system. No more freedom, you'll be sued for send all those sMrits all the time and I'll most likely even see dozens of the same thread asking why x-name's merit source hasn't send any merit in the last 24 hours. Lol

But I believe, every forum contributor deserves to get something more for his volunteer work. It wasn't all about money, but maybe something else.
2051  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: gambling winner identity on: November 03, 2022, 10:31:43 AM
That is not enough excuse to hide his identity from his family. If his huge win can make his family lazy then he as a father has failed because a man who got the best training for his family in terms of morals and discipline will not get scared his children reaction to such win. For me this should be a boast to my kids in pursuing their dream careers except the man in question is not having plans on investing then he is the one to be scared of not his family.
The man was neither completely right nor completely wrong for the reasons given to hide his victory from the family. I think he needs to have good management of what the money is going to be used for, he has the right to manage it and I don't think his fears would be justified if all his family members found out.

He may be able to allocate 50% of his total winnings to a business run by his wife and children, or perhaps something else that keeps their finances growing. Hiding something big like this is not a good choice if we are married, but good financial management is a must.
2052  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season on: November 03, 2022, 10:05:34 AM
I was surprised when I began to see the goals of Benfica increasing from 3 to 6 in the final group match. I was wondering why they needed to score big goals since they will qualify as second position. I was wondering before I knew they are ahead of PSG. They are in same points but they are ahead because of h2h with Psg
One thing you might think about Benfica is that they want to avoid a tough opponent in the last 16. Becoming the top in group would allow them to drawn weaker opponents compared to second place, so here they were really trying hard on a successful mission. This means that each group leader will meet the second team in another group for the round of 16 if I understand the rules correctly.

So because of this, PSG who are the second team in group H will very likely get a strong opponent in the last 16 so it will cost them a lot. Napoli, Porto, Bayern Munich, Tottenham, Chelsea, Manchester City, Real Madrid are the teams that are likely to meet PSG in the last 16, and I don't think this will make it easy for PSG to qualify for the next round.

This's the rules: How does the Champions League round of 16 draw work?

Quote
How does the Champions League round of 16 draw work?
  • The draw features 16 teams: the winners and the runners-up from each of the eight Champions League groups.
  • Two seeding pots will be formed: one consisting of the eight group winners (seeded teams) and the other of the eight runners-up (unseeded teams).
  • No team can play a club from their group or any side from their own association. Any other restrictions will be announced ahead of the draw ceremony.
  • Seeded group winners will play away in the round of 16 first legs and are at home in the return matches.

Did you watched until 90 minutes? I don't think with Napoli not serious against Liverpool last night at Champion League, beside have qualify to next round, secure first standing position is most important get easy match at 16 round against team with runner up finished.
Napoli are one of the most serious teams in Serie A and the Champions League this season mainly because they have managed to maintain a good form. Napoli managed to avoid dropping points in various match, but that doesn't mean they can't lose. In the Champions League especially in Group A, Napoli and Liverpool are both serious about the outcome of the match where both have only lost one match in 6 matches.

No doubted with Napoli keep focus at domestic league because next match face with second team standing Atalanta, last several bigger team success beaten by Napoli after Milan and Roma, I think not any problem faced by Napoli against Atalanta.
Regardless of how they have maintained their form so far, then consider that Napoli can still lose at any time. The team that could take the better chances will score and maybe Atalanta will be the first team to beat Napoli in Serie A. Napoli will maintain their unbeaten record, that's true, but Atalanta are a strong team to break that record. Don't ignore the opportunity, you might regret it.

We have seen that Chelsea have not played very well in their last 3 games. They lost a lot of points and I think the team is not very in form right now. So I think Arsenal have a better chance of winning the game.
Arsenal are in great form and are currently playing with high performance. They will be victorious in this match. They need to increase the points gap between them and Manchester City
Basically both teams need maximum points for their respective interests, that should also be taken into consideration for anyone before making bet. I do believe that Arsenal's form over the season has put them ahead of Chelsea to win the match, but Chelsea certainly wouldn't be comfortable with their current rating based on performance. So there are different possibilities in my assessment of these two teams.

Arsenal will be highly motivated to win the match in order to reclaim their place in the top spot if Manchester City win against Fulham. If they lose or draw, it is certain that Arsenal will be behind Manchester City.
2056  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Question to players: what does really drive you crazy in an online casino? on: November 02, 2022, 04:21:08 PM
Definitely huge rewards. If you are just into gambling excitement, then simply go to a land-based casino to play and kill time. But what makes online casino advantageous in dome aspects over casinos, except for convenience and being accessible at any time, are rewards on my end. Online casinos are giving free roles, incentives on invites and such which are being offered on real life casinos.

But ofcourse there are downsides of it still which is quite not surprising and is evident not only on online platforms but also to land casinos.
Of course, regardless of land-based or online casinos there are always pluses and minuses. We both know what are the advantages and disadvantages of these two types of casinos, and every player who agrees must be prepared with all the consequences.

Access anywhere is an advantage that makes me prefer to choose online casinos, but there are certainly many other things that I like about online casinos including the large selection of games and various other advantages. So all this is user experience, but of course we really have to be aware that the risk is always behind the convenience.

What do you guys think ? I believe when used constructively and virtuously, merit is a fantastic tool to encourage higher quality and intellect in crypto space,
Honestly it's true, merit system has encourage more quality among users especially for those who still need rank. Also, the merit system has made the forum less spamming, but of course every system will never be perfect but at least it has helped.

and a direct reward by the admin (@theymos) towards well performing sources would be a great incentive and accolade for them to do an even better job.
Something like custom badge might be conceivable, but since the merit system was introduced I don't think theymos ever announced anyone on their list until people found out based on their stats. Some merit sources now publicly announce that they are sources, but others remain private even though they are known. So somehow I don't agree with incentivizing bitcoin as a reward for merit source, but maybe good for a badge.
2058  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season on: November 01, 2022, 09:05:12 PM
Barcelona are boring in this match, obviously because they are no longer fighting to qualify for the last 16. I didn't see them playing at their best because several times Viktoria Plzen's players could easily threaten the goal, but Barcelona were two goals ahead at the end of the first half. Qualifying for the Europa League is Barcelona's target in this game, so I think maybe they will have no problem doing it.


A bad Champions League season for Atletico Madrid. Atletico Madrid will continue in the Europa League after losing away to Porto. After Leverkusen's draw with club brugge at home, it was the side that passed the round after Leverkusen's superiority in the double matches. Porto will take advantage as the group leader with this win. The first halves of the other matches are about to end. There is not a very different result between the matches at the moment.
3 bad Laliga teams, not only Atletico Madrid. Barcelona, ​​Atletico Madrid and Sevilla were really not as expected so Spain only got Real Madrid in the round of 16. The Premier League will most likely dominate the round of 16 with all its representatives, but Tottenham really needed to win and turn things around in the second half after they fell 1-0 down at the end of the first half to Marseille.
2059  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: November 01, 2022, 08:54:38 PM
It takes confidence to place high hopes on them if you bet on their winnings. So as @babo said where both teams are difficult to predict, there is a point because their performance is not very consistent in every match, that is what can make the final result not as expected.
It's up to those who want to bet, even if you don't want to do it for that reason then it doesn't mean everyone is the same. Gamblers don't have to force their urges on unpredictable matches, but some of them may risk small bets just for fun.

I often pass every match except with Inter because they follow Ucl of course it is very worthy to follow their every match. lazio and inter milan both collect the same points but lazio is superior in goal productivity that makes lazio above inter milan.
I even miss Lazio games far more often, unless Milan, Inter, Juventus are the opponents. So I'm more likely to ignore the odds they have regardless of easy matches.

I think we only need one thread for a better and organized discussion, so locking one of those would probably be good.
I wouldn't be too selfish to agree with your suggestion, so I hope I'll do it to avoid repeated discussion. You and other users can follow the progress in this thread and hope to get enough information. While, all the information about the loan can be said to be correct, the loan will be repaid soon which is planned this week.

So thanks for the advice.
