Manchester United was just few minutes to win Sevilla for the first time in history, before Ten Tag brought flop Maguire into the game, everything changed. A lot of defending errors and poor control, the game was lost because of poor tactics from the coach. He made wrong changes, they might not survive the second leg in Spain. It's so sad, Maguire should just leave the team.
The mistake made by Erik Ten Hak entered Maguire by replacing Varane, in the first half Man United really dominated the game, it's just that they have a weak spot in the center back sector because Tyrell Malacia made several mistakes. Entering the second half, Manchester United's defense became increasingly uncoordinated and Maguire and Tyrell Malacia made many mistakes, so Sevilla's two goals came from the mistakes of these two players.

Even though in the first leg Man United got a draw at home, I think Man United's chances are still quite open. Erik Ten Hak learned a lot in this match and in the second leg he will try to maximize it better and I'm still sure Ten Hak will give a positive result in the second leg, even though many people say Man United's chances are smaller than Sevilla.

No government or casino can stop someone with an addiction stops gambling no matter how hard they try, besides, casinos will basically not opt-in for such a policy knowing this will only cause them loss in their business as most of the revenue that they make come from people who are addicted of gambling and can't resist the urge to gamble.

A platform will basically lose a lot of its customers if they start asking for certificates of that kind all of a sudden, and that isn't something they would want to happen unless the governments force them to do so in which case they won't have a choice, but addicted gamblers will still find a way to gamble.
That's why I said it's not the right move to ask for a certificate to mark responsible gamblers, if they realize that gambling can make them worse, then what should be done is stop gambling and no one is forcing people to gamble. Gambling has been going on for decades, it's just that the patterns of gambling games are now more sophisticated than ever, so any excuse won't stop gamblers.

They are running a business in a Casino and asking for conditions that will unnecessarily burden the gambler, so they will decide to look for another Casino or will gamble according to traditional patterns, in a relationship doing business would be against the wishes of the OP and the Government also may not necessarily see this as a solution.

Chelsea fans must be very disappointed with the performance of their favorite team this season. In almost all competitions including the UCL they have almost no hope of surviving. On the other hand, they have to accept the fact that in their domestic league they are now equal to the mid-table team.

The funds that have been spent are countless, but to get better and consistent results they are so difficult. It's a shame, even though in the past two seasons Chelsea have lifted the UCL trophy and now they are even having a hard time being in the same competition.
Any club must have experienced difficult times in league competitions or in any competition and what Chelsea must do next season is to find a quality coach, so they can compete in the Champions League and Premier League. Chelsea players are quite good and have average quality, it's just that at the moment they don't have a reliable tactician, so it's very difficult for them to compete in the Champions League and the Premier League. Even though Chelsea has spent a lot of money and trying to get quality players.

Chelsea's chances in the Champions League are very slim to qualify for the next round, a 2-0 defeat to Real Madrid will make it difficult for them to undergo the second leg later. Realistically I see that Chelsea's opportunity to compete in the Champions League is over and Lampard must focus more on the Premier League so that at the end of the season he can finish in a much better ranking.

How many questions would you like to ask and who will give you a more accurate answer? He (Satoshi) has created the investment concept of a much better generation to avoid the chaos of the Fiat currency system and Bitcoin is friendlier to trust as a long term investment. If the concept of decentralization has brought you this far then your 20 questions will lead to one conclusion, namely "Decentralization".

P.S Community, did Satoshi grant any interview before his disappearance. If yes, someone should please point me to it.
I think he is not a typical person who likes to show off, simplicity, long -term and anonymous security is the strength possessed by Satoshi. His intelligence exceeds the chatGPT in my opinion Grin, because he successfully kept his identity a secret so far.

See finance in my explanation ? Replace all pieces with finances, it'll be great as well. I hope each of us will figure out all clues to the complete picture. Make your finance puzzles complete !
You will realize that the game will sharpen your mind to think more logically, I get this moment in a chess game, where we always rely on the pawn for the king's deadly Staregi. The pawn movement is indeed slower and can only move one step, but at certain times the king's position will be pinched only because of one step we move. Likewise the way we manage finances, when we do not have a long -term strategy and preparation, the amount of money we have will actually be used up in conditions that are not needed.

The small pieces that you mean will be collected in increased amounts, when you put in some places of money and most of us think to place on one concept without thinking about some of the posts another place for far greater and more stable opportunities, so that one failure will be destroy everything even though there are some places worth trying?

Marcel Sabitzer scored in the 14th minute, and I saw Manchester United playing very well, especially in attack because they had a few chances at the start of the game.
and the second goal was created again by Marcel Sabitzer in the 21st minute, he was great in the first half that was still going on and already scored 2 goals which I think the goals will add up because the game is still very far away.
Man United played very well in this match, Casemiro's presence made the Man United midfield very organized and the match was completely dominated by Man United, both in terms of attack and possession. Marcel Sabitzer appeared quite impressive until the first half ended, his two goals completed Man United's victory so far in the first round.

Sevilla lost concentration because Man United played very pressing and I think they should try to maximize the midfield and defenders, so that Man United is not so free to hold the ball and carry out attacks. If Sevilla's appearance in the second half is still the same, it is very likely that two additional goals will be created for United in the second half.

The casinos are one of the businesses that the government get taxes from because they're actively making profit. The government won't want to lose that tax revenue. The casino aren't responsible for your addiction too.

You should be able to control yourself and only bet with money you can afford to lose, if you can't handle your addiction then quit gambling and look for other ways you can make money or entertain yourself that isn't gambling.
I don't think it's an implementation that will limit gamblers to get involved, Casino runs a business and they never care how much user's money will run out, certificates as OP described also won't work to limit number of gamblers and level of restriction government also can't afford to play much bigger role.

Active gamblers have several criteria before playing and most of the addicted people are more difficult to control themselves and even though the state tries to block some Casino sites. The problem is not government certificates or bans, but gambling has been going on for decades long before online casinos began to develop.

Real Madrid managed to win the match with a score of 2-0 and that was enough for them to look into the second leg later and now the possibility for Real Madrid to step into the semifinals of the Champions League this season is quite large.
after seeing the Real Madrid vs Chelsea match in the first leg I think it is very possible for Real Madrid to be able to win again in the second leg, there really is a very significant difference in team quality between these two teams, apart from the winning results Real Madrid were only able to win 2 goals, but I think Chelsea don't have the proper quality to be able to match Real Madrid's game.
Chelsea's appearance in that match was really disappointing, Lampard had so much trouble dealing with Ancelotti's strategy and Chelsea also had weaknesses in attack, where several opportunities that should have been goals were wasted. The red card received by Ben Chilwell also had an influence on the stability of the match, where Chelsea players found it increasingly difficult to keep up with Real Madrid.

I also highlighted Real Madrid's performance in that match, where Ancelotti's men did not play as usual. If you pay attention, Real Madrid should have won more than 2-0 with Chelsea's not-so-good performance. Chelsea's chances will now be much more difficult when playing the second leg even though they are playing at home.
1069  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Times When Casinos Will Ask Certificate That You Are A Responsible Gambler on: April 12, 2023, 11:54:34 PM
Will there come a time when online casinos will implement that you upload a responsible gambler certificate before you continue to play because of too many government restrictions it's not necessary for newly registered gamblers but for gamblers who lose a lot of money and their activity is they are suspected to be addicted to gambling.
Casinos facilitate gambling and they do not require a certificate to show responsible gambling. They run a business in the Casino and they never care how much money you spend on gambling, because they run a business not open donations.

The reason why the government will implement this, as a precaution, is to protect people from losing their wealth and their health from too much gambling because of addiction, it's a way of protection.
There are many countries that try to block Gambling sites and that doesn't stop Casinos from operating in those countries. The reason the state tries to protect people from losing a lot of money due to addiction makes no sense at all, gambling has been going on for so long in human life, it's just that now there are many platforms that make it easier for people to play gambling.

This is not the right solution and for the case of gamblers it will be very difficult to regulate, if they don't take advantage of gambling through casinos, gamblers will still gamble in the traditional way. If the reason is as you mentioned, then more precisely what can control the gambler is the individual gambler.

I don't know if a lot of us noticed but Portugal football is doing greatly this year , right ? I mean they still have a team in both UCL and Europe League with Benfica still having chances against Inter in UCL and Sporting are playing tomorrow against Juventus and I think however wins this series , might end up lifting the trophy as well.

Man United vs Sevilla also a very attractive game but I don't see a lot of goals being scored there and more likely a pragmatic game will be preferred from both coaches.
Juventus will try to play more aggressively in the quarter-finals, this is the only last chance for the Old Lady to chase a trophy this season and the match will take place at the Allianz Stadium, so that will be an additional motivation for them to win. Juventus' chances of winning the game will be much bigger compared to Sporting, because there is a lot of support that will make them superior in this match.

Manchester United also have the same ambition, where Old Trafford will be the venue for the opening game for the quarter-finals. I don't think these two games will end in a draw and I predict Juventus and Manchester United will win.
1071  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season on: April 12, 2023, 10:59:44 PM
Chelsea versus Real Madrid I can't help but laugh When Real Madrid's star player, Karim Benzema, was present and fully prepared, not even the slightest chance was given to Chelsea. Benzema was the first to score under 27 minutes with Vinicius Junior given out two assists for the goals scored, and from the shots on target, Real Madrid had 9 and Chelsea had only three. From the starting  of the game, I already knew that it was going to be a lost game for Chelsea. watching  the game seeing the expression on the faces of Chelsea  fans was just funny  after the second goal.
The match went a little easier for Real Madrid to get the win and in my opinion Chelsea is not a match for Real Madrid at the moment, even before Ben Chilwell got a red card Real Madrid really dominated the match. Nine shots on target were scored by Real Madrid and the game went without any pressure. Real Madrid played more relaxed and didn't push too hard playing harder as usual and this is the first time I saw Real Madrid playing more relaxed and not as much pressure in the Champions League.

Luckily Chelsea have a goalkeeper like Kepa Arrizabalaga and he really showed his quality as one of the best goalkeepers and in this game managed to make seven saves, so that Chelsea avoided defeat and conceded more goals.
1072  Economy / Economics / Re: Is the government can really make a way to end poverty or it depends on us? on: April 08, 2023, 08:40:55 PM
Actually I don't fully agree with your opinion because basically the government also has a responsibility to improve the economic standard of its citizens. While governments may never reach every individual, they have played an important role in reducing the percentage of economic problems to the lowest status in society.

The government's task is a complex task to regulate everything in such a way that it reaches a good level, but it will greatly depend on how strong the country's economy is. Don't compare developed and developing countries with third world countries in the process, but look at it case by case. However, individual independence and good human resources will help reduce the percentage of poverty.
Of course you don't have to completely agree with some of the ideas I want to convey, because as far as I know we are used to not being completely dependent on government policies. Even in terms of regulations, the government has the responsibility to provide guarantees for the welfare of its people. My question is how far can the government reach all levels of society? Did you know that most countries are currently experiencing almost the same problem, inflation and recession are problems facing the world, including the OP's country, you and me, depending on varying degrees of severity.

What can we do and what solutions are offered by the government? I believe that each country has its own way of managing this problem and the point is to find a solution to the problem at hand. The role of the individual is also very important to raise awareness of each other in finding solutions. If the presence of the government cannot fully cover basic needs, you can find solutions to meet these needs. One way might be to apply the following steps?

  • Utilizing vacant land to plant basic needs for life support, such as rice, vegetables or adapted to staple foods in their respective countries.
  • Take advantage of existing resources to meet all needs, even if the scope is small, at least for each individual led in the household.
  • Look for a special formula to get out of the problem of inflation and recession, don't think too far because the most important thing is the availability of opportunities for each individual's life.

Basically all problems have a solution to be solved, even though the scope is small or different, the presence of each individual is also seen as important to prevent the problem from becoming more complicated and the government will also take its role in solving this problem. If everyone is moving and according to their respective abilities, then I'm sure this problem will be resolved slowly. Developed countries and developing countries are indeed very different when viewed, but there are patterns that can be applied where the point is to find solutions and be able to overcome them.
1073  Economy / Economics / Re: Is the government can really make a way to end poverty or it depends on us? on: April 08, 2023, 07:30:04 PM
In my country i observed so many people doing rally and blame the government why the basic needs price rise and the salary is still very low and not enough for daily expenses, is this the effect of the Ukraine and russia war that makes the gas or crude oil so high at price and they pass the gas expenses to the product and it ends to very high price of the basic needs that make us very poor, I see government has a move to resolve the problem but many people are still blaming the government.
Do you know how many people live in your country of residence? then try to calculate whether the government's presence can reach all citizens to solve the problem of economic inequality individually. Setting the price of basic needs is their responsibility and the government must have a way to solve it and the state has regulations stipulated in the law to regulate basic prices in the market, the government under the power of the president has the responsibility to maintain continuity of basic commodities on the market through related agencies . Inflation and recession cause a lot of problems, making it difficult for most countries to find a solution formula, so that they will affect basic needs and other needs.

It's useless to hope that the government is fully present to help each individual, because there are many problems that they have to deal with to ensure the continuity of a country. If people don't have a better lifestyle and don't have a way to get out of the economic gap, then the chaos will increasingly bring them to the stage of distress, moreover recession and inflation will continue to increase from time to time.

Financial experts are not to predict the movement and volatility of Bitcoin prices, but to minimize losses, especially in the field of fraudulent investment. Bitcoin has a high level of security, or a high trust value. But platforms that provide Bitcoin services are not necessarily trustworthy. So this is the function of experts in the financial sector, at least to understand the digital platforms that are currently developing. Bitcoin has never committed fraud, but many have used Bitcoin to commit fraud. This is the main function of the discussion about Bitcoin.
The analysis that you convey is far more logical in understanding something that has happened and is easily translated in cases that often occur in Bitcoin. In principle, it is not Bitcoin who committed fraud, but people use Bitcoin as a medium to commit fraud indirectly. So it is not feasible to say in general that Bitcoin committed fraud, while a platform that provides services is also another media that is not directly related to Bitcoin.

People cannot sort out to each other so they try to equalize as a whole, even though Bitcoin will never have a price or never become the best asset for investment if there is no relationship between supply and demand in its journey. Connecting as a whole with bitcoin is clearly something wrong and the relationship must also be separated to be tracked one by one.
1075  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: April 08, 2023, 06:15:52 PM
Bookmakers apparently do not believe in the victory of Villereal, otherwise they would not have given odds of 6.4.
It is clear that Real Madrid is the clear favorite here and the statistics say that in the last 5 games Real Madrid scores an average of 3.00 goals per game is a fantastic number.
If Real will score in this match and 2-3 goals, it will be almost unreal to recoup Villereal.
Villereal is not a team that plays from the defense and most likely, as usual, they prefer open, attacking soccer with lots of dangerous moments and goals.
So it seems that only tremendous luck and relaxation of Real players can help Villereal.
Apart from the bookmakers who give odds of 6.4 and I think Real Madrid's chances are much greater to get a full win in this match, Real Madrid have scored 10 goals in the previous two matches and their front line is at its best right now. Villareal was not in a favorable shape during the trip to Santiago Bernabeu and my prediction is that Real Madrid will get a full win in that match and Villareal will concede above 3 goals.

Even though the advantage is in Ancelotti's men, Villareal could surprise and make it difficult for Real Madrid to play in the first round, but there is a bigger chance that this match will be won by Real Madrid because many factors are currently in their favor, let's see how Ancelotti gives another surprise in this game.
1076  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: April 08, 2023, 05:53:52 PM
I agree with you on this one, Newcastle games has been a glorious outcome in their few played matches, their come back on the top 3 is a very condeble job but I think they need to push hard even though they are ahead of Manchester United, other teams will be having this phobia anytime they have match with them, I never even expect them to quicly climb back at the standing of top 4.
The competition in the top three will be even more competitive as the competition between Man United and Newcastle continues. Man United managed to beat Everton and Newcastle also managed to secure full points, the most interesting match for both of them in week 29 with important wins to maintain their position in the standings. Newcastle almost lost that game because Brentford had much bigger chances, but they missed a penalty and an own goal made Newcastle get full points in this match.

I think Liverpool already miss the chances when they played against Chelsea, they should have win the match to stablized their points, now they have their next match against Arsenal, and the way Aresenal is in form, they may trash and humiliate Liverpool again in Anfield and I don't think they will be able to sustain their standing, Fulham may overtake them because they have higher winning rate in thier next match than Liverpool and Brentford.
Liverpool's record has been terrible this season in the league so I don't think they will be able to finish in the top four or five. Defeats against Bournemouth, Manchester City and a draw against Chelsea have made their chances of being in the top five very improbable, 10 points too many for them to catch Tottenham's position in the top five of the standings. The next match also made it difficult for Liverpool to get full points because they would face Arsenal who were in perfect form.

Nine matches unbeaten in all competitions and this is a good capital for Arsenal to visit Anfield. Arsenal will definitely give their full strength against Liverpool, but I think the chance of the game ending in a draw is very possible, because Liverpool are also ambitious to get points even if they have to end in a draw.

Sure this works for a certain period but later bad things may happen, you have to postpone the payment and struggle with finances again. Isn't this a vicious circle ? How would you deal with the problem ? I am all ears.
Back again to each individual, whether the loan is taken for business support needs or just to fulfill a lifestyle. When an impact has been carefully considered and adjusted according to needs, then a loan may be something that is needed for business development, for me this case is not bad. Loans have two alternatives in my opinion?

1. Active Loans
Active loans are usually taken for business needs and they have considered the number of needs with an adjusted timeframe, usually this form of loan has very few problems and most importantly loans like this can be used for something more useful.

2. Passive Loans
This kind of loan usually won't help people, because the purpose of taking a loan is not for business development or anything like that. More precisely, loans like this have no direction and purpose, only for non-urgent needs and following lifestyle.

I classify two forms of loans that I often see, of course there will be many references to loans and everyone may have their own perspective. In my opinion, we can avoid one form of loan and it also doesn't hurt to try if you have more Good goals.
1078  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: April 07, 2023, 09:54:14 PM
Honestly, I really regret Barcelona's defeat in the second leg of El Clasico Copa Del Rey yesterday. I didn't see what they lacked in the first half, but somehow it ended badly for Barcelona in the second half. Apart from the midfielders, I think they also lack defensiveness and are not effective up front. Lewandowski didn't have many chances, while Raphinha did too, which kept them from scoring until the end.

But I appreciate Barcelona's struggle even though I'm disappointed. This El Clasico is good for Real Madrid, but we have won a lot of El Clasico this season. I'm not saying it's fair, but it's clear that Xavi has problems between his players.
The second half of Barcelona's game was a complete mess, all Barcelona players were not well coordinated with each other, especially the midfielders were unable to create opportunities to send mature passes forward and made it difficult for Lewandowski to score goals. I agree with your analysis, that Barcelona's weaknesses are on almost all fronts in the match, but what stands out the most is the midfield in my opinion.

Two or three El Clasiko wins earlier this season broken up by a semi-final loss, can I put it that way? Grin I will also tell you the same thing, that Xavi had problems against Ancelotti in that game and his tactics were easy to read after the First half and there was no solution when he conceded two goals, so Barcelona's game was even more chaotic.

What's your take on these?. I know that what have advantages still have disadvantages, hoping with Bitcoin to survive can cause delay on some of our opportunities,
When people start thinking so there will be imagination in the practice of its application, which becomes a problem when there is no mind to understand something and you don't have knowledge as a supporting factor.

Bitcoin is an alternative to making money and very close to achieving profits, but it requires understanding, pattern and strategy because it is not as fast as you think. Regarding wealth, how far will you invest and how much capital do you have to achieve instant riches in Bitcoin, not to mention we are talking about investment patterns and strategies and if you apply the wrong strategy, you may incur losses especially when it comes to price fluctuations.

Newcastle is at the top of their game, and I have no doubt that they will finish in the top four. Manchester United, Tottenham, and Liverpool will compete for the final four spots, and if Newcastle keeps up this pace, they will take third place.
Regardless of your belief in Newcastle who will finish in third or fourth place, I am more inclined to see the possibility of Man United finishing third, based on analysis of the remaining matches and facing a stronger club. It is possible that Eriksen and Casimero will be able to play in the next few matches, so that the strength of Man United's midfield has improved, although it is not yet clear to Eriksen when he will return to strengthen Man United after undergoing injury recovery.

For Liverpool it seems difficult to reach the top four or five positions in the standings and it is very unlikely to finish there. Tottenham still has a great chance of finishing in the top five or four, because the point difference is currently not far from Man United and Newcastle, even though Tottenham has one game more than them.
