USA vs. Bahrain Under 2.5 goals (1.45) 9/10
Maybe even Under 1.5 goals (2.25) 7/10 (3-0)


I’m actually planning to fire up the stream at 6:15 PM today—mostly just out of curiosity to see how this Bahrain squad actually operates on the pitch. Look, in their last 14 matches, they haven't even cracked the 2.5 goal mark once. Only two games went over 1.5, and get this—seven out of those fourteen ended in a dead 0-0 draw 🤷. Sure, the USA side is a bit more clinical—they've put up three straight 1-1 draws—but against a defensive wall like Bahrain? I just don't see the goals flying in. The last time these two sides met back in 2012, Bahrain pulled off a 1-0 win
. Good luck to everyone riding the same wave 👍

17:15 Steaua București vs CFR Cluj – Tip 2: Away team fails to score (1.75) (2-0)

Steaua București is sitting pretty at the top of the table, and honestly, their defense is looking solid—they’ve only let in 12 goals over 18 matches. Plus, they are absolute monsters at home, conceding just 3 times in 8 games. On the flip side, you've got CFR Cluj languishing near the bottom of the standings, struggling to find any rhythm with only 4 goals scored in 8 away trips. I’m expecting Steaua București to completely dictate the tempo here—it feels like CFR Cluj won't even get a decent look at the goal.

14:30; Vitesse Arnhem - NAC Breda handicap (0:1) pick 1 (1.65) (3-2)

Vitesse is absolutely rolling right now—they’re just steamrolling everyone in their path, especially with that Chelsea duo of Oscar Piazon and Daley van Aanholt leading the charge. They just went out and absolutely dismantled PSV Eindhoven 6-2 in their last away match, and if they pull off today's win, they'll jump straight to the top of the table with a 3-point cushion over FC Twente. On the flip side, you've got NAC Breda sitting down in 12th place; they are frankly terrible on the road, losing 5 out of their 8 away trips with a goal difference of 10:20. Their last head-to-head meeting was back in June, where Vitesse cruised to a 3-0 win, so I don't see any reason why they shouldn't cover the handicap again today.

17:00; Lille related - SC Bastia pick: Bastia fails to score (1.90) (2-1)


The only reason I'm even touching this pairing is because Lille's defense is basically a brick wall. Their goal differential is seriously impressive—they've only conceded 5 goals in 17 matches, which is easily the best in the league. I'm expecting a gritty, low-scoring affair here, maybe something like a 1-0 or 2-0. Honestly, I don't see how a struggling side like SC Bastia finds any way through that lineup to get on the scoresheet.

15:30; Bayern Munich scores in both halves (1.50) (3-1(1-0))

Bayern can't afford to go easy on Bayer Leverkusen—they've got too much to lose—so they really need to lock in for this one. You also have to look at that absolute demolition they pulled off at the Allianz Arena, winning 9-2. Their finishing is clinical, and honestly, betting on goals here makes sense given how much Hamburg SV tends to leak.

18:00; Astra Giurgiu vs Viitorul Constanța. Home team scores, away team doesn't @1.7 (2-0)


Astra is sitting pretty at the top of the table, while Viitorul is struggling down in 16th—basically staring relegation in the face. Look at the numbers: Astra has a massive +26 goal difference, whereas Viitorul is sitting at -17. Viitorul hasn't found the back of the net in their last four matches, and frankly, I don't see any reason why they’d suddenly find their rhythm now.

Alex Hill86 said:I don't think it's gonna work,

And honestly, if you've watched any of his other videos, it’s pretty obvious—nobody out there does it better than him when it comes to just shoveling massive amounts of food down their throat.

I'm with you on that.

haha, sure, easy to talk the talk—but I highly doubt it’s actually that simple in practice...
Half a kilo of Nutella in 5 minutes? in Miscellaneous ·
A buddy of mine is actually trying to bet some serious cash that he can polish off half a kilo of Nutella in under five minutes—only catch is, he wants to wash it down with water. What do you guys think? Is that even physically possible?
We were watching this one guy online and now my friend thinks he’s found his calling http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OENU9ZMEeww .That dude inhaled 750g without any liquid at all, but honestly, he’s an outlier—the guy is basically a machine...

Eric Fox7 said:Even if they did offer it, I highly doubt the odds would be any better than just betting on a straight win.
What’s even wrong with a standard single bet? 🤷

Actually, you've got a point there—I was totally thinking of something else entirely, but whatever... I'll just put it down as a single.

Word is Algeria is cruising past Burkina Faso today because they’ve finally got some key starters back in the lineup—plus, they actually looked better than the final score suggested in their first match, even if they ended up dropping it 3-2. Basically, they just need to find the back of the net once and keep a clean sheet. I'm trying to find a decent spot to bet on them advancing—surely there’s somewhere out there taking action on this?

Algeria to advance @ 1.55

Tottenham vs. Newcastle | Handicap X2 (1.40) (0:1)

Look, with the roster Tottenham is currently running, they’re playing absolute garbage. Their last two outings both ended in 2-1 wins, sure, but don't let that fool you. On the flip side, Newcastle is looking sharp and firing on all cylinders right now. I’m leaning toward a draw here—honestly, it feels like the most likely outcome—but I decided to play it safe and "protect" myself by taking the Newcastle handicap.

Portland Timbers vs. St. Louis City SC | Handicap 0:1 Tip 1 (1.90)

Portland is absolutely steamrolling everyone in their path lately; their last match against St. Louis was a clean 2-0. Meanwhile, St. Louis is struggling big time—they can't stop losing. I don't see any reason why Portland won't just run right over them today, maybe even by three or four goals if they stay this hungry.

Bahrain vs. Lebanon: Total goals over 3? No way (1.55) (1:0)

Their last matchup was a total snooze fest—a 0:0 draw. Honestly, looking at their recent track record, most of their games barely even hit the 2.5 goal mark. I’m expecting a gritty, defensive grind where nobody wants to take risks. Low scoring is the name of the game here.

Rangers vs. Airdrie: Home team scores, away team stays clean (1.50) (2:0)


It’s a complete mismatch. The Rangers are absolutely tearing through the league right now—sitting at the top with a massive 45:6 goal differential over 11 matches (and yeah, they’ve won every single one). Meanwhile, Airdrie is dead last, struggling with a 14:24 differential. It's worth noting that back on November 1st, these two met and the Rangers cruised to a 3:0 win.

I saw the same thing on PSK, though I noticed the odds were identical over at Hattrick too.

Look, if he isn't sidelined by an injury, I'm betting Ibra gets the start—mostly because he can't afford to let Ronaldo pull ahead of him in the scoring race.

Ibrahimović scores (1.50)

Honestly, there isn't much to debate here—he absolutely tore them apart with four goals last time they met. At this point, tonight is really just a question of how many he manages to bag.

Plzen vs Bayern: Team 1 doesn't score, Team 2 scores (1.75) (0:1)

Looking at the last match, it was a 5:0 blowout. Viktorija’s goal difference is sitting at 2:11, while Bayern is at 11:1—they basically have zero chance against a powerhouse like Bayern Munich.

18:30 Los Angeles Lakers vs Miami Heat: Home team scores, Away team doesn't (1.75) (5:1)

The Lakers are sitting pretty at the top of the standings with a goal difference of 24:2 through 8 games, while the Heat are struggling down in 13th place with a 4:7 differential after their first 8.
These two squads have faced off 5 times already, and honestly? The Heat haven't managed to find the back of the net once—their last outing was a 4:0 shutout, and the one before that was 2:0. In my book, the Heat don't stand a chance here; the only real question is just how badly they’re going to get embarrassed.

Benjamin King2, thanks for the assist, but I actually ended up seeing a pro today and they got everything sorted out 👍. Turns out the headache was just a driver conflict—I’ve got two GPUs in this rig, one Intel and one AMD, and the system was completely ignoring the Intel one. We had to hunt down the official drivers from the Intel website to get them talking to each other properly. It took us a solid two hours of digging just to realize that was the issue—total waste of time, really. But hey, Call of Duty is running smooth now. Thanks again for the help.

I just realized—after digging through everything here—that I didn't actually get any driver CDs with the laptop.

As for those other two questions you threw my way... I'm not really following. Could you break them down for me?

Here’s a screenshot of all the devices currently uninstalled—doesn't look like anything stands out as a red flag to me:

The real headache is that I don't have the installation disc handy from last week—my buddy, who's one of those "I know everything about computers" types, just finished setting this whole thing up recently. Can you tell me if I messed things up by deleting the DirectX folder from the registry? If that's what caused the glitch, I'm probably looking at having to run a system restore.

So, I’m running Windows 7 64-bit... I went ahead and downloaded this massive 235MB driver this morning http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownloa...b_win7-64.aspx, but after the installation finished? Absolute nothing. Same old headache. I even tried following those specific troubleshooting steps here http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/l...=ws.10%29.aspx, but that was also a total bust. Right now, I’m mid-download on this driver http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/s...em=ob-105905-1.

EDIT: Okay, I finally grabbed the driver from that last link, and now it’s throwing an error at me—acting like I need to install NET Framework 4 first. So, naturally, I download it, install it, and the second I click "finish," I get hit with a "Setup has failed" message. Seriously? I can’t believe this—it feels like every single thing I try just hits a brick wall...
Do you think this might have anything to do with the fact that I deleted a file named "DirectX" from my registry?

I finally figured out what’s causing the headache, but now I'm stuck—I have zero clue how to actually update this driver. If you could walk me through it, you'd be a lifesaver. Here's a screenshot of what I'm looking at:
