This guy Guerschon Yabusele really dunked over LeBron James in the Olympics and then parlayed that into an NBA contract. Good for him. I’m guessing his main role is going to be to try and taunt LeBron to get him off his game when the Philadelphia 76ers play against the Los Angeles Lakers. Still, a great Olympic story.

https://x.com/automaticnba/status/1825211484852609123

Wow, he finally agreed, and now he’s on a championship contender team. His main role will likely be on defense, but we know what he can do offensively as well, having averaged 14 PPG in the Olympics, if I'm not mistaken. Back in the NBA, he’ll definitely aim to prove himself and secure a longer stay, which could lead to a better contract when it's time for renewal. Congratulations for him, well deserved comeback.

I wouldn't say championship contender just yet.  They can't seem to win big games in the playoffs.  They have Paul george now so that might change things but I'd still have them seated in the 4/5 position this year.  Even if embiid and George don't get injured you'd have to think they would play some time management with the 2 of them.  Don't really know this guys game that they just picked up but with their roster already filled out he will probably ride pine.

Fair enough, but I like the roster now that PG has arrived already plus Yabusele  would be able to help improve on the defensive end although sixers is already known for their good defense. Why I think now that they are a championship team because they have a big 3 already, i mean a real big 3 that could work. I'm counting on these guys " PG, Embiid, and Maxey".

Plus you put these guys which could be a huge help.  Caleb Martin and Reggie jackson which recentlly signed and the veterans Lowrey and Gordon, and a lot more familiar players that are known to be a good contributors.
This is Philadelphia taking the risk and going all in IMO. If they don't get a minimum of Eastern Conference Finals this year, Embiid will likely consider leaving. Whether or not he has interest is going to depend on how he performs this year of course, but Philly will be without him if they don't perform.

Can't say I have Philly as low as 5th in the East, but def not #1. I like the Pacers to improve, Boston is def still #1 being defending champs, and Knicks might surprise some people.

People like to gamble and enjoy watching sports. What's the big deal here? If a team I bet on is playing at a certain time, I likely want to watch the game. Why does it matter if I tell people I am unavailable for a few hours? It's not like I am unavailable forever, just for that particular game. Topics like this make no sense to me.
103  Economy / Reputation / Re: TO LoyceV on: August 18, 2024, 04:33:46 PM
Ok, so after reading and checking the trust I have a few things that concern me.

1. is it confirmed he is BitcoinExpart?
2. You were told in 2018 to make this thread and decided against it. Why now? You had no choice then, but refused.
3. How do we know this account hasn't changed hands?
4. What if the trust was removed but you couldn't join sig campaigns for 5 years? I assume that's your only motivation for this topic as do others.


With the above concerns, it's hard for anyone to consider changing the tag. If you are indeed an alt and tried or did cheat in a contest/gievaway, then I would never remove the tag and I wouldn't expect LoyceV to either.

Concern 2 I understand a little as it sounds like you might live in a 3rd world culture full of corruption and fear controls your life. Which explains your fear for other DT here even though most of us aren't that bad nor corrupt.

Concern 3 is a big 1. Considering this is a 7 year total case and account sales run rampant on this forum or did in the past due to sig campaigns paying so much, the motivation is there for a new owner to go through pm history and trust history and figure out how to get trust removed. Maybe that's the reason for your change of heart in saying it's never to late to start. Without being able to prove this account didn't change hands, it would be hard to remove the trust as we don't know if you are the same person.

Concern 4 is a probably something you'd never agree to either way.

If it was me, I would leave the red and not worry about it. Too much time has passed and too many unknowns.
104  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: USA 2024 Presidential Election Promotion in Stake.com on: August 18, 2024, 01:27:52 AM
When I visited Stake on 9th of August, I saw it. If you visit Stake, you can clearly see it which you can click to select who tho win. Donald Trump odd was 2.05 at the time, but now the odd increased but with just little added to it.

Things get interesting based on the odds, but I’m still not going to change my prediction that Trump will win another term after a loss. I guess the odds are screaming 'get me,' and I was already fine with 1.50, but now it's over 2.00, so that's some kind of gift for us bettors who believe in his chances. Kamala came into the picture, and we saw this huge change. The question now is, do his odds really reflect his actual chance of winning, or are they just being overvalued due to some hype?

When Harris comes into the picture, the odds for Trump changed a lil bit. And it seems that they are now favouring the side of Harris to be the next president. However, as you said, this will be on the favour of the bettor who is sticking to Trump, getting more than 2x of his initial bet.
I think it would be a good bet to put a few bucks on Trump. Not sure how Harris turned the table as her promises are just bs. So are Trump's I suppose, but I am a fan of the anarchy Trump brings to the White House and media. At least he keeps it interesting.
105  Other / Meta / Re: How can new members recognize rankable members of the forum? on: August 17, 2024, 04:44:35 PM
Don't clearly know what you mean though. But you can check here on https://bpip.org/ for list of most Merited, most recognized, most trusted, most activity and DT members on tne forum. Just switch between various tabs on the site and you might find what you are looking for.
Bpip is an excellent tool IMO.

OP reputable members are not just members with high ranks on the forum or high numbers of earned merits. I would suggest bpip as well as it will show you multiple stats all of which are useful to what you are looking for.

Who are the members of DT1 and DT2? What are the functions of DT1 and DT2 members? Why are DT1 and DT2 kept even though every thread in the forum has moderators, and what are their requirements?
You can check this list for the members who are in DT 1 and DT 2
full list of DT 1 and DT 2 members

For the duty of the DT members, scams are not being moderated in this forum; in most cases, it's left for the DT members to follow up on evidence that's made available and drop visible feedback on users profiles based on what's happening, either positive for a good rating and negative to serve as a warning for any users that's a suspected scammer or spammer.
This is kind of correct. DT help with scams, some use the status to abuse people or positions, some bust scammers etc. There are many things DT members do.

Don't just blindly trust a DT member. Check their trust and see what others have to say about them, how long ago the + or - trust was left, if there is a reference link etc. Check how active they are and if they earn alot of merits. Anyone can make DT these days, but not everyone can keep it. Lot's of us have been DT for years bouncing back and forth from DT1 and DT2 depending on the monthly lottery, but some make DT and true colors come out. Just be careful.

I can't find Stake's spreadsheets with the names of their participants, but I am pretty sure Charles-Tim is part of their campaign.
If Stake and someone make the deal without the person applied on the campaign thread, the person may not be in the spreadsheet. If not because I know some people in Stake, I may not even know that there is any spreadsheet because I am not there. I guess people like    AB de Royse777 and yahoo62278 may not also be on the spreadsheet.
Certain members are not on the spreadsheets because they have gotten offered a custom deal. None are likely going to discuss the deal with anyone as honestly it's noone's business.

People may also be wearing a sig just to support a site and are not employed by the site. It's not illegal and i'm sure no site is going to complain about free advertisement.
107  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slot games is predetermined game on: August 17, 2024, 03:01:00 PM
Whether predetermined or not, most still want to watch the animation for the entertainment value. Streamers especially want to watch the animation as they are trying to create content and have longer streams. The only way I would skip the animation and not watch the game fully play out is if I am tilting and chasing losses.

Entry fee sent, soon as we have the league created and draft day/time/order set let me know. Ready to get this season started and see if I can improve on last years disaster. I am unavailable on the 22 as that's move in day for my kid for college. Any other day and I should be available. Good luck to everyone!!!
109  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🏈🏈 The American Football Discussion Thread 🏈🏈 on: August 16, 2024, 06:12:45 PM
I know they aren't as active here anymore, but maybe tyKiwanuka could have interest in joining? Last year, the two free spots filled up quickly. I don't know, it's a long shot...


Just heard back from him and he doesn't have the irl time unfortunately.

Also he says to not draft any Giants!


So it looks like we are back to 10 unless we have anyone else interested that I don't know about.

If so then we can get the payments in and set the order for mock drafting.

I'm not sure how I'm gonna be able to handle having a stacked team after doing a 12 team last year. LOL

I have to admit 12 over 10 really made for a tougher league!
10 team league may help me in the draft over the long run, should be more running backs available unlike last year it seemed like I couldn't get a decent back besides Saquan Barkley.

I'm ok with the same person holding the money as well, none of you worry me as far as holding the money.
110  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling with Bitcoin Testnet (tBTC) on: August 16, 2024, 05:36:32 PM
If it has a value then most are probably all for a casino adding it, but devs would probably rather see it stay as a testing currency. If you are able to claim from the faucets still then I don't expect the market to ever get very high. I know there were a few faucets that were giving out like .01 per claim or something at 1 point.

I personally don't think it should have a value.

Taking the time to try the site out today, buddy of mine tried it out and likes it so far but there are some bad things that some may not like. WD times apparently are 24/48 hours which sucks as the site doesn't appear to have a billion players so shouldn't be too hard to do manual wd. Apparently you cannot hit n run, which I like cause lot's min buy hit and take off. Needs more deposit options as well, looks like only btc, ltc, and doge currently. Need to toss in eth and USDT.
112  Economy / Gambling / Re: Bcplay - review on: August 16, 2024, 03:49:47 PM
I wonder what happened to the OP, he is active(I checked his profile and he was recently logged in) but is not responding to any of the posts being made on his thread. pretty sure he saw the post where they were called out for copy-pasting BC.game's bonus terms.

Lots of terms for casinos are generally the same and most new sites probably copied or reworded terms from an existing site IMO. The issue is they didn't take the time to proofread and published their terms leaving in the casino's name.

Not vouching or calling this site legit, just saying in general most terms are the same for most casinos.
yeah, it just shows that they are not serious about their "project" and most likely are up to no good.
I don't think he/she is getting the responses they felt they would. Being as the site looks like a copy and the terms are a copy of another site, they were probably never serious just hoping for a quick cash grab.

114  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are online slot games purely based on luck, or is there any skill involved? on: August 15, 2024, 06:50:47 PM
if you watch streamers at all you will see that slots are just 100% luck. You can literally see thousands of spins each week on every slot out there and there is no pattern to tell you when a machine is about to hit a big base hit, hit a bonus, or give you a jackpot. You can literally be a blind person and have the same chances as a person with 20/20 vision. It's a pure gamble and 1 you are going to lose most of the time.

I've always heard that slots are how a casino pays the bills. They have a few random winners throughout a day, but overall players lose way more then a casino pays out. I'm talking about land based casinos here, but I am sure the same holds true for all these online casinos.

1 thing that can help you minimize losses is by checking the RTP which I see the OP sorta mentioned, but let me expand. Open 3-4 casinos that you are curious about and open the same slot on all of them. Go check the info page and see the RTP. I'll give an example below of why you need to check the RTP.

Stake.us             96.49 minimum RTP  96.6 maximum RTP
Gamdom.com     96.49 minimum RTP  96.6 maximum RTP
clubs poker         95.45 minimum RTP  95.5 maximum RTP

This is the RTP from the regular Sweet Bonanza game on all 3 sites. If you play the game on Stake or Gamdom you have the same chance/RTP but if you play on clubs poker you have less RTP. Basically you lose an extra 1% of your money playing the game on the lesser known casino vs the better known. You always want to check the RTP and give yourself the best chance of winning. If you hit a bonus game you'll see the difference as the lower RTP site pays out way less 99 of 100 games than you'll see on stake or Gamdom.


115  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does the changing value of BTC affect your decision to gamble in crypto casinos? on: August 15, 2024, 05:55:42 PM
I don't really see it as an advantage or disadvantage honestly. If you are gambling and winning big amounts it might matter, but gambling to win an extra $20 that might turn into $25 tomorrow seems like a silly gamble IMO. Making $200 that might be $25000 tomorrow makes it worth it.

You want to make sure you're doing it at a casino that turns your deposited balance into a dollar amount, not 1 that keeps your currency in the crypto you deposited in I think.

Scammer is using your name that he got my contact from you lol.
You have my contact info on telegram and I haven't wiped the message history, so you should have immediately known it wasn't me messaging you. If ever in doubt, send me a message here to verify It is or isn't me messaging you.

People need to be very careful on messaging services and always verify.

**EDIT**

Just sent a message on tg just so you can see it's not me

Yea I have not and would not share contact info with anyone, but anyone who wanted your info just has to look at your personal message space. It's not like anyone is really trying to boo 100% anonymous here especially if they are a manager of some sort. All of us have our contact info out there.

Those that are complaining about the reset are likely users who were collecting something weekly without wagering much since they built up their account.

While it sucks to wager and build an account only for it to be reset, look at the bright side, the lower levels are now available to you again and you're closer to a reward for hitting the 1st tier.

119  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2024 NBA Season on: August 14, 2024, 10:46:07 PM
Michael Porter Jr is extremely underrated. If it wasn’t for injuries he’d probably be a top 5 player in the league. The combination of him and Aaron Gordon on the wings is what makes the Nuggets a special team. If you take one of them away, the Nuggets are done as contenders. That’s what I think. No way is trading either Porter or Gordon a good idea.
I agree.

MPJ is actually a good part of the Nuggets and just remember on how they've taken the last season. They always had it and MPJ helped the team through their journey.

I think if there are superstars and starting players for each team, he's part of it. But if that's what the Denver Nuggets team think and mostly the coaching staff that they have to let go of him, they're going to have another adjustment with Jokic and Gordon.

Yeah, I would say that he is underrated, and prior to his injury, he has a good shooting form and so his percentage is high. But suddenly we see him struggle and we don't know what happen to him until he official says that he had a injury and if I'm not mistaken it was his back that really affected his form.

But I think the Nuggets is still one of the contender, their core is still intact, they might have to adjust. They still one of the best duo in Jokic and Murray (behind Brown and Tatum). So still very competitive Western Conference with them as one of the favorites.
Yeah, Denver Nuggets is still one of the contenders in the league. I just can remember them from being non contender and being ignored in the league but when they have won their first chip, until now they're still considered to be one of the best as long as Murray, Gordon, and Jokic are there.

And getting some help from the likes of MPJ.

I wish MPJ recovery.
While I truly think Jokic is a dominant player in the league who can score at will and always looks to get his teammates involved in the game, I think Denver is no longer 1 of the top teams in the West. A lot is still going to depend on the rest of the off season, but I like Dallas, Minnesota, and I look for the Kings to all come out hot in the upcoming season.

Denver will be in the playoffs, but I don't feel like the road to the Finals leads through them.
120  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Selected Poker Freerolls, Less Competition and Big Value on: August 14, 2024, 03:16:48 PM
Stake.us also has freerolls. I don't know exactly how many but they have like 2 $200 freerolls daily and 4-8 $50 freerolls daily for the USA players. There are plenty of freerolls out there, but you have to dodge the minefield of stupid to even cash in most of them. Doesn't matter your personal skill level, they are all hard to win.

Anyone who plays freerolls should pay attention to this thread and look for the freerolls that have the lower amounts of entries. It's a tough grind so don't get discouraged.
