No mate, you can actually merit someone on your ignore list.
You can merit an ignored user but if you already ignored that user, how do you know posts of that ignored user are good to distribute your sendable merit to that one? It is a challenge to find quality posts from an ignored user but sometimes you can see quality in quoted posts of the user. It is barely seen by you because it needs to depend on quoted posts, not original posts of an ignored user. This ; https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5469525.msg62991498#msg62991498 |

Better to wait until the bull run /....
We can't just sit around waiting for that bull run before we dive into investing. If you want to savor those juicy profits once the bull run hits, now is the time to jump in. Bitcoin's price is still pretty reasonable compared to what it could be during the bull run. We're discussing preparation here, and that means acting before the bull run arrives. Trust me, if you wait until the bull run's in full swing, you'll likely only see modest gains and risk losing out if your timing's off. So, if you're looking for a safe bet, the time to buy is right now. |

Hahaha, kidding aside, we don't know what might be the future for Berto as before I heard that he wanted to move to SMB but because of his contract from his previous team he can't just sign and jump ahead to SMB,.
Before he played overseas, rumors were flying around that he might get signed by SMB. I believe Northport could be considered a farm team, and many players from there have made their way to SMB. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I can think of a few examples like Cabagnot, Romeo, and Pringle. The rumor was a trade, that means during the time when he was still a free agent and yet that didnt' happen. PBA Trade Rumors: How BAD was the rumored SMB trade offer to Robert Bolick?Bolick chose to play abroad for a while and left the PBA. Now, he's back, and the timing seems just right as the PBA season is about to kick off. I'm not entirely sure about the PBA's rules on signing players with the season so close, but if it's allowed, I'm pretty certain Bolick won't have a tough time finding a team. He's kind of a special player right now because he's the only star player available. So, he's in a fortunate spot, and on top of that, he gets to be close to his wife regularly, unlike playing abroad. |

First off, big congrats on that parlay win! It's not something that happens every day. I'm curious, though, what were the total odds on your parlay? You had quite a few bets in there, and hitting a parlay like that doesn't come around all the time. And you bet less than a dollar, which is pretty low risk. It's a lot of fun winning a parlay because when you're betting, you might not even notice the money you're spending, especially if it's just a small amount. You can do that daily. But for me, I'd go for a bit more, maybe risk $2 daily on a parlay, but making sure the potential winnings aren't less than $2,000. That way, if I do win, it's incredibly satisfying.

Just in case, what amount will be looking like a nice hit for you to leave a casino just immediately for maybe your first, second or third hit on the machine as you have just walked in?
I make use of online casinos which can be more addicting which is one of the things that I put in mind. If it is $1 that I used at first and won like $3, I stopped for that day. I can do that with $2 next. Then with $3 next. Then with $4 to $10 which would be my last game. That is if I do not want to lose. But if it is for fun, I use low amount of money to continue playing regardless if I gain or lose. Sounds similar to the martingale strategy, right? It's quite a popular one. Personally, I've used it, but with strict limits on my bets. I can't go all-in with that strategy because it can quickly wipe out my bankroll. I'm guessing the figure you mentioned isn't the actual amount you're betting, as $1 per bet seems pretty small to me. No offense, but I value my time in gambling, and if I want to win big, I know I have to risk a bit more. |

One last piece of advice: don't mix trading and drinking. Trust me on this based on my experience.
Of course, in the same way that you should not drink alcohol when you go to the casino, which many gamblers disregard and which is why they are very profitable for casinos. If casinos didn't want us to drink while gambling, they wouldn't be serving us free booze, right?  You can't really equate trading with gambling because trading is a serious gig, whereas gambling is more about having a good time, you know, entertainment. Casinos serve up free drinks because they want gamblers to have a blast, and, of course, to get them to bet more aggressively. They've done their homework and found that when people have a few drinks, they tend to lose more easily. |

5. Stay calm and try to control temporary emotions.
I think the most crucial thing for a trader is to truly understand what you're doing. When you have a solid grasp of your strategy, your emotions are less likely to take the wheel. You're confident that your approach will lead to profits, which lets you stay calm while you work. Trading is a mental game, and once emotions get involved, they can cloud your judgment, leading to regrets later on. As you spend more time trading, you're bound to experience a full spectrum of emotions. The market's wild volatility can be like a roller coaster ride. But with knowledge and experience, you're more likely to maintain discipline. One last piece of advice: don't mix trading and drinking. Trust me on this based on my experience. |

It's not a big deal at all. You've got the freedom to flaunt your betting slip to the world, and if that brings someone joy, we shouldn't be poking holes in their reasons. After all, he's a billionaire, for goodness' sake, so he can definitely show off his massive gambling tickets.
By the way, that 4.25 million, is that in USD or in Nigerian currency? Because if it's on Nigerian Currency, thats only around $5,558, no a huge bet IMO compared to Drake's bet and other sharks in sports betting.
Naira money. He bet 5M and to win 11M if Chealsea wins. He really put his bet at the right time while the team just scored. He is a millionaire and has the right to do whatever he desires with his money to influence people arou d him its his business. Politicians do it all the time. That's roughly around $6,500, and considering the gambling is happening in Nigeria, that's a significant sum of money. It's bound to turn some heads, especially among his peers, seeing someone bet that kind of cash. But as the saying goes, 'mind your own business.' This bettor's a billionaire, and he probably knows what he's doing. As long as that money isn't ill-gotten or hurting anyone, it could serve as an inspiration. Maybe one day, we can also throw down those big bets when we're in a situation where money's no longer a problem. |

Ang klaro lang dito ay kasama dapat ang crypto earnings sa declared annual income ng isang tao at maaring mapatawan ng buwis. Ang hindi lang malinaw sa ngayon eh anong klaseng buwis ang applicable, IT ba o CGT? Siguro may grupo na nag-declare ng kita sa crypto at CGT ang ginagamit kaya nag-assume na din yung iba (kagaya nung article) na yun talaga patakaran. As far as BIR Regulation and Memorandum, wala pang nilalabas.
Only a BIR memorandum can back up what they're saying. Without that memo, it's just speculation or fake news. They should attach something that readers can verify because tax stuff is no joke. Missing it, whether on purpose or not, can get you in some real trouble, even landing you in jail. |

No bull run happening yet, but you better get yourself ready for the upcoming bull run. This small price movement is all thanks to some big news that resulted to this market sentiment, but if you're expecting a 'real bull' scenario with insane daily price hikes, we're not there yet. According to the stats, bull runs tend to kick off after a halving event, and that's 190 days away from now. So it's too early to jump to the conclusion that the bull run is here. Of course, trends can be deceptive because of the market's unpredictability. No one can truly predict, but the last three halvings followed the same pattern, so personally, I'm betting on the fourth one doing the same.
Just keep accumulating, the more you gather, the better your chances of enjoying the ride when the bull run finally shows up. Remember, for us to confidently say we're in a bull market, the price of Bitcoin has to break the current all-time high. Think about how much you'll have when that time comes if you keep stacking now.

We haven't seen Thurman in the ring for a while, although he did win a fight after his loss against Pacman. But the Pacman fight is the one that really stands out in our memories, as it was a major event, especially for me since we consider Pacman as our hero. Thurman is known for his outspoken nature, and rightfully so, because he was a champion and still fights like one. If not for his injury, he could have been more active in boxing, but that's in the past, something we can't change. What matters now is that he's gearing up for another fight. I'm not sure if it's a big fight, but with Thurman in the ring, it's bound to be an intense battle, really worth watching. My concern is for his opponent, as I don't think they'll fare well in a toe-to-toe fight against Thurman.

Hey! I was thinking of something this night, this thing about merits and the merit-sources. If you are a merit-source, should you always give away merit to good posts even if you dislike the user that created the post? ive wound up meriting posts from users in my ignore list. as sometimes ill see an ignored users post quoted by someone else and if its interesting ill go unhide it and merit it. so yes people i dislike and even ignore get merited on occasion. but i wont go out of my way to find them. This shows you have a kind heart, but many others won't. And as for the quote you replied to, no matter how good and constructive you are, if you are not in line with the views and ideas of most people, they will never merit you. This is very bad since merit sources are not perfect beings, the posts they refused to merit might be the one carrying the rightest information and value. Probably that'st the reason why Theymos appointed a lot of merit sources. But we have 109 merit source with approximately 33940 smerits given by theymos almost every 30 days.
Listen, if a couple of merit sources aren't feeling your post, there are still over 100 more out there. But, if most of them ain't vibing with your content, it might be time to reevaluate your forum game. You might want to take a breather, analyze your posts, and seek some advice on how to level up. This applies if you're hunting for merits. However, if you're not quite at that merit-hunter level yet and you're not racking up merits, but also not getting your posts modded out, you're probably doing okay – at least in terms of not breaking the forum rules. |

The sports betting had the huge risk as compared to other game,because we can’t predict the game of the player on the particular game.The game of the player was depend on many reason,Some of them are mentally disturbed on the particular day.It may be the reason for the sports person game was not good on that day. This is why I always say that sports betting is also a luck based game although many members disagree with this and insist that it's a skill based game. It's true it's a bit different from other casino games and your knowledge about that particular sport may give you a slight advantage but it remains a luck based games for the reasons you already mentioned. Not to mention that no matter how knowledgeable you are, the odds provider most likely knows more than you do. There's no right or wrong answer here; it could be a luck-based type of game or skill-based, depending on the gambler themselves. You can't limit a gambler's imagination. For example, I might think that sports betting is skill-based, and that would make me more interested in it, believing that with my skills in sports handicapping, I can consistently win. However, there are bettors who may see it as a game of luck, so they won't put in a lot of effort analyzing the games or maintaining records. How you approach sports betting really varies depending on your perspective. I must have to agree with what you have said here, but for me, i have always seen sports betting as a knowledge-based game, with also some level of luck, being successful in sports betting depends largely on what you know about sports, not your skill in sports, skill talks about physical knowledge like, how good a person is when playing a football or any other sports. Meanwhile betting is not playing the game physically, its just using what you know about the sports being played, and the team playing, to predict what the possible outcome of that match could be. So i see it as a knowledge based game and has nothing to do with one's skills in sports. Nope, when we talk about a skill-based game, we're not talking about being a pro athlete. We're diving into the world of sports handicapping – it's all about your ability to analyze trends and stats to get the upper hand over other handicappers and bettors. You don't need to be a sports expert from the get-go; basic knowledge will do. Over time, you'll naturally pick up more about the sports you're betting on. That's why gaining experience is key; it'll mature your approach and help you avoid repeating old mistakes. And every gambling game, no matter the type, still require luck, sports betting, casino games, poker, card games, slot machines, skill based, knowledge based, luck based all still need the gambler to be lucky to win, though the level of luck required for each of this varies from one another. You know, the whole luck thing is a bit tricky to argue. I mean, when you're in the gambling scene, luck isn't the first thing on your mind, at least from a realistic standpoint. That's because if you truly believe that your skills and knowledge can keep you winning, luck becomes more like a fleeting guest at the party. It shows up now and then, but your skills? They're your constant companions in this game. |

Alright, folks, gimme a sec. I gotta crunch the numbers and convert that 70k bucks to our local currency. So, based on my math, it's nearly 4 million pesos! I reckon I'm gonna have to go through the whole KYC thing, you know, it's like hitting the jackpot for me. I'm ready to say goodbye to my mysterious, anonymous self, let the gambling site know who I am, and get my hands on that sweet, massive win!

In this sport, we all know that it's not impossible for the heavy favorite to lose the fight, just a single solid lucky punch that converts
Tapales road to win will take his name on top!
Upsets, that's what we call them, and they can happen in any combat sport, not just in boxing. Pacquiao wasn't always the favorite before he became a legend; he had to challenge and defeat formidable opponents to become the only eight-division world champion. So, it's entirely possible for Tapales, especially since he's putting in the hard work, trying to find Inoue's weaknesses and exploit them. However, please take note that fans often base their expectations on past results, and Inoue, who is currently a top pound-for-pound boxer, is naturally expected to win. But remember, it's just an expectation. Upsets do happen, but they're not a frequent occurrence. So, as a bettor, you'd usually pick the better fighter to win. However, when you're supporting your fellow countryman boxer, it's a different story. You might not objectively assess who the better fighter is, as your decision could be slightly biased. That's what we call smart money, specially for big whales in boxing, most of the time they will really bet big on the favorite, millions of dollars. And in this case Inoue has proven that he is a great boxer and so majority of us here see that he could be the eventual winner although we haven't seen them stepping in the ring yet. And with that, even if the odds doesn't look for us regular bettors, but for whales, they will take that one and make a risk. But it's not a assurance, that's why it's gambling, we've seen odds as 1.01 and someone big betting on it and then eventually lost. But maybe for us who don't have the big pockets, and obviously supporting our own boxers here, why not throw a couple for Filipino Tapales. He is going to be a huge underdog and as we have seen, sometimes all you need is that one lucky punch. So our mind might say, Inoue, but being a Filipino, we will support Marlon Tapales no matter what, just like when we supported him against Akhmadaliev. At least let's discuss the real odds here so we know what we're talking about. A betting odds of 1.01 isn't going to happen, especially in a unification fight where both fighters hold two belts that they're looking to unify. Such odds would be quite disrespectful to the other champion if Inoue had them. Odds coming from this website https://www.oddschecker.com/us/boxing-mma/boxing/naoya-inoue-v-marlon-tapalesSuggest that Inoue is -1000, means 1.10 in decimal odds, 10% of your bet is your winning if you bet on him and he'll win. So the question is, will the smart money going to the odds like that? I mean, if they truly believe Inoue will win easily, it could be an easy 10% return on their millions of dollars in bets. They're risking a significant amount for a relatively lower reward, but if they have absolute confidence in the outcome, I think they'll bet on this one. |

I might be seeing another Crawford vs Spence fight. Shakur likes to play like Crawford, while for me De los Santos fights like Spence. So it's a copy fight and we all know how it ended. De los Santos is a good boxer with power, but Shakur will figure it out how to beat him, and uses his boxing IQ. So maybe it's going to be +7.5 rounds, with Shakur winning by KO/TKO. But still though, this is a great fight and we will see Shakurs skills and technique.
This is a different kind of fight – a champion versus a non-champion. That bout between Spence and Crawford was an undisputed fight, while in this case, Shakur isn't facing a world champion. So, I'm not setting my expectations too high for this one. It seems like it could be more of a tune-up fight for Shakur. Maybe a little similar in the way that De Los Santos has to be the aggressor here and try hard to land his big shots on Shakur. Shakur is the one to use his footwork to stay away from engaging and use his skills to hit and not get hit. But in terms of experience, Shakur might be fighting only the 2nd time in this division but the experience difference is just too wide. Shakur is a silver medalist in the Olympics, a 2 division champion, a 1-time lineal champ, and a unified champion. While he is a regular 135 fighter, this is the first time De Los Santos is fighting a 12-round event let alone his first championship fight. So I have the feeling that De Los Santos gets tired in the middle of the fight and that is when Shakur tries to stop him. De Los Santos needs to work on his quickness if he hopes to catch Shakur. Shakur is a slick fighter with lots of evasive movements, making it tough to land hits on him. It's going to be a challenging task for De Los Santos, but in boxing, nothing is impossible, especially for a fighter with a strong desire to win. This fight presents an opportunity for bettors to place their money on De Los Santos if they believe he has a chance to win. As for the betting odds, this is currently the picture. https://www.oddschecker.com/us/boxing-mma/boxing/shakur-stevenson-v-edwin-de-los-santosEdwin De Los Santos is +700 |

I was wondering why all withdrawals were suspended the other day... every type of withdrawal or cashout was suspended, not just crypto withdrawals (which I never do anyway b/c the fees tend to be way too high). These days I mostly just deposit pesos in Coins.ph and do my crypto exchange to pesos somewhere else... They are still the only app that allows me to send money to myself via M Lhuillier.
I'm not using coins.ph anymore since my account got banned, haha. I'm currently using Binance P2P. Regarding your observation, if they were operating normally, withdrawals shouldn't be suspended. This suggests that the hack might have already occurred yesterday, and they didn't make an immediate announcement. I'm not sure I trust them too much anymore... Too bad since I had an account with them since 2016. You should always exercise caution and wait for further developments. It's reassuring if they have a fund for the security of users' assets (SAFU) like Binance. |

He truly deserves to have his jersey hung because he was one of the major reasons behind the Warriors' success when they won a championship. He was named Finals MVP in 2015, and his ability to limit LeBron, who is the best player of the Cavaliers, was a key part of their victory. He successfully guarded LeBron throughout that series. I can confidently say that he had a fulfilling career in the NBA. As we all know, a player's ultimate satisfaction comes from winning a championship, and Iggy achieved that with Curry and the rest of the big three. |

~~~ but at the time there is nothing they can do to recover the money they have lost so far.
This is the main reason why most gamblers end up losing more than they can afford. They have this emotional drive that makes them believe they won't allow themselves to lose, so they keep chasing their losses until they are in the profit zone. Unfortunately, they fail to realize that the gambling house always has its edge. This kind of behavior leaves them playing without a clear direction, and they'll never come out ahead in the long run. Gradually, their losses pile up, and they only realize it when they've depleted their bankroll to the point where they can't continue gambling. It's a typical scenario and happens all too often among irresponsible gamblers. |
