In this story:
Estevao Willian could prove to be one of the biggest transfer bargains if he reaches his full potential – and his performances already for Chelsea suggest he is well on his way.
Of course, Estevao only turned 18 earlier this year which allowed him to formalise his transfer to Chelsea from Palmeiras, so expectations and pressure on the teenager need to be managed accordingly as he enters the spotlight.
Chelsea paid an initial £29m for Estevao, who penned a long-term contract at Stamford Bridge, with the deal including significant performance-related add-ons. If they are reached, every single party has won.
He has been gradually introduced into the Chelsea side this season under head coach Enzo Maresca, who has taken full responsibility of ensuring the Brazilian settles into his surroundings in England.

"Again, last week he was complaining about it being cold," joked Maresca when discussing Estevao's adaptation. "Last week was still October. Imagine December, January!"
Regardless of how Estevao is coping with the English weather, he has certainly adapted to conditions in the Premier League, as well as in the Champions League.
In his 16 appearances for Chelsea this season in all competitions, he has returned four goals and an assist. His influence on the side is far greater than anyone could've imagined and hoped for this early in his Blues career.
As Maresca acknowledged after their 3-0 win over Wolves in the Premier League, Estevao brings a special energy when he receives the ball and is an option for Chelsea. An individual who plays with no fear and for the love of the game, but with real quality and vision to produce game-changing moments.
Estevao came off the bench and just over a minute later, he was helping set up Joao Pedro's goal to double Chelsea's lead – talk about being influential.
The aura the Brazilian oozes already. The way he dazzles on the ball. He brings a comparison to Eden Hazard's days at Chelsea. If he can get anywhere near what Hazard did in west London, or even exceed, the Blues will have a very special player on their hands.
Maresca believes Chelsea have hit the jackpot and he's right. Now it's about ensuring he remains grounded and continues on the right pathway with his game management, adaptation and development.
"He's doing fantastic," reflected Maresca. "For this club, in the next 5-10 years, he will be a top, top player. 
"The reason why fans pay tickets is because they want to see players like Estevao, like Cole (Palmer)."
The prospect of what Estevao can achieve is frightening. Along with all of the successes, there will no doubt be bumps in the road too. They will serve as pivotal moments for Estevao.
For now, Estevao is only at the start of his journey and it's time to embrace every single step of the way.

Winning numbers drawn in Sunday’s Arkansas Natural State Jackpot  San Antonio Express-News

This story was produced by the Oregon Journalism Project, a nonprofit newsroom covering the state.
Oregon, a state that prides itself on innovation, can now claim another first: the first state with a professional sports team whose coach was arrested by the FBI and charged with scheming to rig illegal poker games.
The recent bust of ex-NBA star and Portland Trail Blazers coach Chauncey Billups focused a national spotlight on Oregon, the NBA and gambling.
But that glare, so far, has obscured the size and impact of Oregon’s sports betting industry.
Gambling revenue is an important segment of the state of Oregon’s budget. In the 2024 fiscal year, Oregon took in more than $1.7 billion in gambling revenues.
But the percentage of this amount that comes from sports betting—despite the relentless TV ads for state-sponsored offerings from DraftKings, complete with bet $1, get $100 in credit teasers—is only 4.4%, an Oregon Journalism Project analysis shows.
Video lottery, the vast network of colorful pseudo-slot machines found in bars, restaurants and lottery delis across the state, provides the Oregon Lottery with nearly 16 times as much revenue as the more glamorous sportsbook.
Oregon Lottery revenues flow into the State Treasury and fund programs for education, parks, economic development, veterans programs, and even a tiny bit for treatment of gambling addiction, among other expenditures.
A 2018 U.S. Supreme Court decision legalized sports gambling nationwide. In 2022, after a false start with a Maltese betting company, Oregon contracted with DraftKings, the huge online gambling company, to handle the state’s sports betting.
Oregon gets 51% of the net revenue from sports gambling—the amount left over after payouts, DraftKing’s cut, and other costs.
Although only a small portion of Oregon Lottery revenue, sports betting is the agency’s fastest-growing segment. From 2023 to 2024, its revenues jumped 36%, reaching $75 million, the OJP analysis shows.
Critics say that’s a dangerous trend. Kitty Martz, executive director of Portland’s Voices of Problem Gambling Recovery, argues that the harm caused by sports gambling heavily outweighs the benefits. Martz notes that unlike conventional lottery products, which are available only at retail locations during business hours, sports betting is accessible by cellphone anytime, anywhere.
“It becomes very all consuming,” Martz says. “Younger, educated men are starting to be more affected by gambling harm.”

After the success of Sing Out Bingo during the celebrations of the 11th anniversary of Time Out Market Lisboa, we promised that the Musical Bingo would be back. And here it is on October 23, at 9 PM.

This format was created especially for Time Out Market, combining music, gameplay, and dinner. It’s the perfect mix: eat, sing, Bingo!

The Sing Out Bingo will be hosted by Pedro Luzindro, who’ll lead this lively musical bingo session, with Quim Albergaria on the DJing.

Each player will receive a bingo card. The format is just like a regular bingo, except that instead of calling out numbers, songs will play. Players will have to test their music knowledge and check whether the song’s corresponding number appears on their cards. Once the games begin, it’s all about making a line and maybe even shouting “Bingo!” to the sound of Beyoncé or Lady Gaga.
In between rounds, there will be fun challenges like singing, dancing, lipsync battles, and even a music quiz.
If you’ve got a competitive streak, love good food and drinks, and enjoy a lively night out, Sing Out Bingo is for you.

Participation is free.
