I don't recommend his style for most people. O ma lule. You will run down walahi.

I have a friend I keep warning I hope LAPO no go come carry am one day. I won't leave country wey I dey to come help am oh.

His betting style is actually very sensible and he doesn't play that nonsense they call virtual soccer, anybody playing that one is doomed as far as I'm concerned. No money wey you make and win you can never use it to do any better thing. Your village people have won

I look at his options. He doesn't put those pesky useless 1.01 1.2 and other poverty odds. I rarely see him pick anything less than 1.4 and people don't understand it doesn't matter the odds the bookies only need you to be wrong once so that whole 'safe odds' is a myth

This FIBA basketball World cup coming now I already know he's going to cook something. There's another dangerous nigga Mr Banks. The damage he did that pandemic time with tennis. I was seeing niggas win 4k odds, 8k odds

Anybody playing that virtual nonsense with the hope of making any money is nothing but a foool. That virtual is u betting against AI , the AI does multiple permutations simultaneously and there’s no level of intelligence u can claim to have it will always get the better of u in the long run.

How u say u want to bet against a software that keeps updating itself? Some will even sit down and study the patterns of the wins, losses and draws for hours with the hope that they have mastered it only to lose their hard earned money at first trial.

Well, for better context of this issue for me.
2017 was when I started earning for the first time in my life (salary wise) and my parents kinda gave me a very soft landing.

And I became a gambler who liked betting. And I was actually winning! And I think it was nihilist funny enough had always advised me to always use low odds. And I did, I was a fairly high staker, 10k, 15k 20k with low odds like 5-10.
And I will mostly post them here. I think my posts were what ignited the debates about gambling on the thread at that time.

Here are some of them then. You can see the amounts staked and then the balance in my bet accounts then.

Now, when you see these , you take note that I was wildly inexperienced with money, in terms of how to spend it judiciously, so in my eyes gambling was very lucrative, partly because I was winning and partly because I wasn't really feeling the effects of losing that initial money because again, (parents soft landing) renting house for me then and giving me their other car).
But Dayo consistently did advice me whenever I post those "winnings", that I really should try and stop. Others would hyping me and praising the winnings, while he would advice caution! Caution! Whatever you think you are making now, you would lose it later. Take your winnings now and leave.

And it wasn't until 2 years later when I found myself knee-deep in debt and gross financial ineptitude because of gambling that I realised what he had been telling me consistently.

Now I went from this post here made in 2017



And this;


To this; 3 years later.




They say experience is the best teacher but dayo did actually help.

This might come a little bit off , but it’s just an observation sha.

I think one major challenge u have is u don’t listen to people most especially if their views don’t align with ur own personal views/heart desires . You rely too heavily on ur intelligence/brilliance and personal conviction.

I do not know u personally but I’ve seen u do it over and over again on this forum. I may be wrong tho.

That being said , I remember a colleague of mine who was an ajebutter right from day one; he attended a private Uni and was protected from all of these street stuff. The guy got gifted a brand new car while waiting for NYSC , his parents got him a house in Gbagada and when he started working he started soft like u described about urself up there.

One time at work he told me about a bet slip he saw online when one guy used 500 to Win almost 2 million. He said he wished somebody can teach him sports betting so he can make a kill out of it with his deep pockets .

I sat him down and told him it’s a road he never wants to go down. I let him know I’m very good at predicting matches and I had a good success rate while I was in Uni and my winnings helped not only me but my roommates to sort some of our bills in finals. However I stopped immediately I went for NYSC in the north and there was no betting shop in the north due to sharia law forbidding gambling . NB: that was a time Nigerian bookies had not started the whole online betting , most of the bets were done in bet shops .
I got a job after NYSC and vowed to never go back cos I’ve seen how betting can make a man with a good job go bankrupt.

Unlike you who didn’t listen to Raumdeuter, that my colleague in question listened to my advice and he was better for it . He never played around the idea of sports betting until one day he told me one of his guys who he wanted to meet to teach him before our discussion had to sell his car to clear the debt he ran into through betting . I’m sure if my guy had not listened his own would’ve been worst.

All the same, it’s good u shared ur story so others can learn.

PS: It’s always best to learn from the experience of others than ur own experience . Lessons learnt from other people’s experience can be sweet, while lessons learnt from ur own experience can be really really bitter .

Okay this sounds more plausible. Several quiet losses and a few loud wins. Very few people make significant profit from gambling in the long run. Gambling is a potential disease, and nobody knows who has the addiction gene for it, so the best thing is to never start. It destroys destinies and wrecks families.

It’s a terrible disease .

The day wey u play bet option of “ first goal type - kick “ , na that day Giroud go score with head , Varane go score with head and Benzema go score with head . And u don put substantial money pack AC Milan, Man utd and Madrid 🤣

larride:
Ekiti dey stake 100k, 200k, 90k on games and he dey lose consistently like mad.

I know na; I dey always see am.

I always shake my head when I see people hyping him all up when he wins cos I know it’s just a pool of funds. The few times he wins, he gets all the money every other person has staked on his previous games which he also lost .

When people say Ekitipin don kill bookies , I just laugh at them cos he’s only getting paid from the proceeds of those that have lost his games consistently and have given up

A40:
It's not that he doesn't lose he loses well but you see ehn. When he wins all the losses instantly wiped. If you win 50m 2x. Think of how many 50k it would take to make a dent on that 50m. And what I've come to realize is niggas like that will win again. This life who get money go dey rich dey go who poor go dey poor dey go

I've been following the guy for like 2-3 years now. The 50m 2x was an outlier jare.

What people also don't take into cognizance is that he has a tech start-up that fetches him money which is actually where he gets the funds to stake. The guy has really used his popularity to influence his way into money. I can bet if he was just a normal guy who earns decent salary and bets the way he does, he would've gone broke a long time ago. Especially when he goes on those losing streak

raumdeuter:
I am with afrodoc on this. This guy get something underneath. He cannot statistically be winning consistently like that
The oddmakers are not foolish

Okay does he show his bets before the games, Whenever he shows for this weekend lets paste it here for the next 5weeks before the matches o and now lets compare if he is really winning

Yes he does.

And he doesn't win consistently like that o. He loses well well; people just focus on when he wins

afrodoc2:
I don't know much about betting/gambling but i suspect Ekitipikin and others of his ilk who appear to keep beating the odds with astronomically high winnings are running some sort of scam. What the scam is i am not sure but it sure looks suspicious and illogical.

I won't be surprised if they are running a PR scam with the betting companies.

He's actually not running scam, he just chose a specialization and took the gambling highway.

He mostly forcasts Basketball games which is his forte and only bets on other people's football and tennis games occasionally.

He is also wise enough to bet on few games instead of amassing so many games with hope of winning millions with few thousands.

People like that are professional gamblers, they lose alot and win alot. People only focus on their wins while neglecting their losses. There are times the guy bets 50k to win N40m for straight two weeks and he will be on a losing streak. Then he can win N50m the third week with just 36k stake.

I used to know one man like that, a man who is maried and his first born was already in the university that time. He is a professional gambler who plays pool, Baba ijebu and bet9ja. I heard the man usually has at least one tokunbo car in his garage he is yet to drive. So if he starts going on a losing streak and almost going broke; he will sell that tokunbo car and he's so sure before he finishes spending the money on staking he would've won back enough money to buy the car and even get back on his feet on the street.

I only pity those who do not have his deep pockets and want to emulate him. Its those people u will see lamenting say sportybet don collect their house rent

I swear I have been wishing the same
I wish he was the one with lengthy injury and not timber sef
As for rice he struggled in xhaka position that preseason against man utd he played that position

Rice is versatile , he can play that role well. He has the energy to dash from the middle to the final third and track back almost immediately the opponents start attacking .

Bet9ja ministerial ticket

@ Jodera , I didn’t want to quote all of ur post since it’s long .

Like u said it’s just two games we’ve played this season , so we can say it’s too early to judge .

But personally I think it’s the Havertz deal that scattered the whole team cohesion and how we play this year compared to last season .

The stupid urge for Arteta to play Havertz , Rice and Partey at the same time while Odegaard already has a place in AM role is what is making Arteta relagate Partey to RB and it makes no sense from we fans’ point of view .

We all know Rice can play that Xhaka role , Partey can play Partey role and Odegaard can play Odegaard role. But Arteta still wants Havertz on the pitch despite not offering much threat upfront when u already have Saka and Martinelli who are not benchable. The other option would be to bench Nketiah and play Havertz as striker but it appears even Arteta is himself enough to know we won’t score 1/2 goals self if we do that

Make I no lie u ehn, I’m silently hoping Havertz gets a knock in training , miss two straight games and let’s see Rice, Partey and Odegaard in midfield while every other person plays their preferred role . I’m sure Arteta will not be foolish enough to go back once Havertz is back from his knock .

Brush your teeth with charcoal

Hello bro, please I sent u a PM. I want to make an inquiry from u

debbydams:
This trend is becoming tiring oo...

Honestly , it is . It’s so unfortunate that people now feed trolls .

A001:
Otem's book explains all sorts of mimetic techniques that Tem, Olorun, and other past humans, which religious people worship as God in ignorance, used in the past eras to design all sorts of living organisms, mimicking those that evolved naturally from stars that fell to the Earth, when the planet was still young.

It's funny watching dolts abusing me with Tem's name. Am I supposed to feel ashamed that you're using the name of an ancestor of Africa who had recorded numerous great achievements in history to abuse me? Do you how many Einsteins Tem has molded with his hands using various mimetic techniques and genetics? Lols.

While you're mocking Otem and making a fool of yourself in public, a number of scientists around the world are using ideas, which Otem explained in his book, and which those scientists developed themselves to further their careers.

When PeTaL is fully developed in the coming years, you don't need a soothsayer to tell you that one of its myriads of applications is the design of living organisms of various species by scientists in the future, even including humans, just like the past beings did in the past human eras. They're developing the next big ideas in 10, 50, 100, 600 years to come.

A number of scientists around the world are laying the foundations for these in various emerging fields.

If I send this book to any of those guys in NASA, you'd be amazed at what whites will develop from it.

Otem Ambdassador, send the book to NASA na. why u dey tell us?

I sha hope as u dey form this psesudo- PanAfrican ,u dey drink agbo well well o cos this iba(fever) wey i dey see so don hold u o

I hope nobody will come back and claim Tinubu never promised this like Femi Adeshina did after Buhari’s 8 years o

even arsenal is playing like Chelsea the only thing is that their defense is more organized,EPL this season go tough walai

Arsenal playing like Chelsea ?

Is that Glaucoma or Cataract at work ?

Update on the guy that was tortured in the video

Man’s already justifying his price tag.

Master Rice 🍚 keep on cooking

Spy360:
Havertz is an off the ball player. This must have been why he seem not active even though he contributed immensely.

Which kind talk be this ?

What did u see him do off the ball? I particularly took my time to watch him yesterday; he was absolutely useless more off the ball than on the ball sef .

When we don’t have the ball his pressing is just shiiit. He was just strolling everywhere ; he’s not got that Gabriel Jesus or Nketiah pressing . Even for him to position and receive long ball when he was moved upfront, he no try.

We should’ve just used that 65 million buy a normal decent striker who can play alone upfront as a striker in a situation like that when we are one man down.

“Otemic intelleshual “ don resume wailing very early in the morning , later he go claim to be minister for works wey dey always busy when hand touch am

But on a serious note, if this is not mental illness I don’t know what it is. A person that always want to sound pan-African yet will not stop calling his fellow Africans dolts, dumb and unintelligent. This fooolish fellow will open his mouth waaaa to claim Africa has the highest number of ignorant and dumb people , yet he wants to be seen as Patrick Lumumba of nairaland who is the beacon of hope for the pan-African movement in Nigeria. He insults his kinsmen without provocation on a daily basis but wants them to join him in his new found fooolishness ; no be MENT be that ?

Even the individual behind Otem Atum whom U won’t not stop littering this place with his musings , he appears to be more civil and reasonable than u’ve ever been. At least when he came to the Chelsea thread he engaged people in a civil and cool way .

U just give the vibe of those people who get converted to a new religion and they become extremists that even the religious leaders who converted them appear shocked at their fanaticism.

1-0 it ends in our Favour .

6 points and counting !

Unlimited22:
You sold Xhaka who just had his best ever season in an Arsenal shirt and signed Kai Havertz.

Xhaka is a yes to leave , there was nothing anybody could’ve done to make him stay.

It’s signing Havertz that was a stupiiid decision

You can do this guys !

One more minute 👏

The first Tomiyasu yellow card was nonsense sha . It was Havertz that wasted time, yet Tomiyasu got the card

Na God go punish this commentator . It’s obviously a dive but the ediot is saying it’s definitely penalty to Eze

This is the time we need Martinelli to have his head in the game. Na Havertz dem supposed commot and leave Martinelli to break on counter

This ref no just like us sha.

Tomiyasu red card

Officially Havertz job is to foul and to be fouled
