The FIBA Basketball World Cup 2023 will be opening tomorrow. You can check the schedules on the link provided below:
https://www.fiba.basketball/basketballworldcup/2023/games

I have a question: Does anyone here know if there's a site that will stream all the games? Or is there a subscription similar to the NBA League Pass, so we can easily watch the games we'd like to see? Additionally, I've heard that some sites like Stake offer live streaming on their platform. Do they also cover this event?
Looking forward for the tournament to start and seeing the schedule for the opening matches look good for bettors.

Arenaplus(local casino) offers live game broadcast on matches as official partner of Fiba in PH. I’m not sure on other games in other country but you can check your local cable provider for a pay per view subscription since our local cable channel offer this kind of subscription.

I place a bet for Philippines as support for tomorrow’s game against Dominican Republic, I knew that KAT is playing with the opponent team tomorrow but I have high hopes that PH will manage to secure him down since we have many pesky players who can defend annoyingly against KAT.

I’m also tempted on 4.0 odds.  Anyone here with me with this suicide bet?
Seen the odds for one of host nations and it does look one sided.
Don't know if the odds have risen but they were @5.70x for the Philippines to win against the Dominican Republic when I checked them earlier today.
You can see them here before the matches begin:

Atleast their game is around the same time tomorrow for me to catch it.

Messi again making look all easy and achievable for everyone.
Aside of football, he seems much happier than before in PSG, also he said this and his family seems much happier, and we already know what he can achieve in a good mood.
Reminds me of a fictional football club in that tv show about a football team who gets by chance the biggest player in the world to sign with their team and they rocket from last place of the table all the way to the top three.
If Messi can get this Inter Miami team from the rest of the season to winning the championship at the end, it would be a story made of such things from fiction.

^^ De Jong did score but a draw ending 2-2 in yesterday Ranger vs PSV match of the day.
So goes the UEFA champions league.

Trying out something with an acca today with mixing up tennis and baseball, so will see how it works out without any football for today.

Had recently found out basketball is biggest sport to the country of the Philippines so hosting something like this is very important and the article linked from @Baofeng goes to show it to be true.
If the government can suspend work and schools for the metro area in Manila making it basically a national holiday says it all.
Didn't realize Jordan Clarkson was representing the Philippines. Joining Kai Sotto as ambassadors of the country for the NBA players association. Very nice!

Here is an advertisement from the language on the banner could be in China on a BTC atm of Elon and his favorite coin, Doge.

source: https://mashable.com/article/tesla-bitcoin-dogecoin

But it is speculated he had sold most of one or all of his companies bitcoins in recent months.
One can only take a guess at this point in time as his X platform is wanting to come up with a payment system of their own.
But which cryptocurrency will they eventually choose?
Could be they will end up doing what paypal has done and come up with their own stablecoin and use this instead.

Yes @YuginKadoya watched the videos about how Cejudo was giving Aljamain advice on how to fight Suga Sean. Which I found rather hilarious because in a later video by the same creator on his youtube channel explained how they both had a gameplan for beating him, but they both failed to capitalize on it and got beat themselves.

Anyways, it seems that reality is beginning to set-in for Aljo and he will be moving weight classes and Suga already said he has no interest in fighting him anytime in the near future. He has his own plans and is looking to advance his career and not have others dictate on what he should do. Hence the shout out to go boxing next. O'Malley already has one boxing match under his belt back when he first started his journey into fighting professionally.

Next we have the UFC going to Singapore for Fight Night 225.

- IT'S FUD! FUD!! FUD is to blame!  of course, with 90% not even knowing what the acronym stands for.
- Then it's a single culprit, obviously, someone who criticizes Bitcoin, a simple handy scapegoat is needed! Musk! Buffett!
- the last stage obviously's the evil gubbermint! Forgetting that for months before every single one of them was laughing at how the evil governments are not able to hurt Bitcoin, now when they see only red candles it's the same impotent government that is somehow not that impotent anymore!

I wonder why would a space company like SpaceX own Bitcoins. What's the point? Space companies are supposed to build rockets, not trade on the cryptocurrency markets. Grin
Anyway, the trading volumes on the crypto markets were decreasing, there was little to no demand for BTC and many traders decided to sell. When there's big supply and low demand, the price does down. I also assume that the price drop triggered some stop loss orders, which sold more BTC automatically, which caused the price to go down even further. It's not like we've never seen this happening before in the Bitcoin market. The bad news coming the Chinese economy and the Blackrock Bitcoin ETF decision getting postponed also have a small impact over the BTC price. There's no reason for drama here.
They should more likely be holding doge coin since the whole community for this altcoin are always mentioning 'To the moon!' if you ever go to their reddit or twitter channel or feeds.
Sending any sort of amount on a hardware wallet along on one of their rocketships would be more or less be pointless. It will be as a publicity stunt. Nothing more.

So from the sounds of it you have a plan set out if this ever happened to you.
Most don't even think of it since they think they are not lucky enough, but one never knows when lady luck comes. They are not prepared and are punished for it.

Can see this occurring to those who are least expecting it. They of course are caught off guard, do not know what to do in this situation and eventually panic.
Having good money management skills when and if this happens is your best defense against such a syndrome.

Good call @ralle14 because if you cashed out then you'd be kicking yourself all week long for doing it!
Arsenal looked strong even without Gabriel in the lineup and being down to ten men was a good test for them early on in the season. In seeing how they can handle this pressure from Crystal Palace. And they passed with flying colors showing a highly capable defensive line.

The Gamers8 tournament ended earlier today after Vitality edged out ENCE in the decider map. I thought this would be ENCE's series to win because they looked clean throughout the tournament compared to Vitality, but Zywoo went ham after they lost the first map.

The LCK playoffs also finished with Gen G sweeping T1 in the grand finals. I would've thought it'll be a 3-2 win by Gen G, but T1 looked like a different team in this series.

Azure Ray is already waiting for the Finals. They will face either Team Zero or a rematch of the upper bracket finals, Xtreme Gaming.
I'm rooting for Xtreme Gaming to win the lower bracket finals, so we'd have decent odds for the grand finals.  Wink
This has got to be the shortest tournament of any of counterstrike's matches to be notable enough to be held professionally, am I right?
Only managed to take note of maybe 5 matches and wagered on only about 3 of them intotal.
But it goes on the teams record which were involved, so it was good for Team Vitality I guess.
Next one the Blast Premier Fall series? Remember watching the qualifiers a couple of weeks ago for that one being held in Copenhagen.

Also gaining major attention after having NBA players and co-founder of well known eSports clubs FaZe clan jumping onto the hype train.

Actually I missed the rest of the event right when Chito Vera's fight started. Fell asleep at that point so had to rewatch the entire card from that point on.
I guess Suga Sean was right, he is a boring fighter and that fight doesn't count on his record.
His only loss being 9-1 in the UFC.
Sean O'Malley tells Stephen A. what's next after beating Aljamain Sterling at UFC 292

Watched his rise up from the ranks starting from the Contender Series was a really interesting watch:

^ Nice! I’m glad I didn’t bet this fight because I didn’t think that Sean was going to pull out a win. He came through though in fantastic fashion with a crazy right counter. Impressive how much power he has for how skinny he is. I am a fan of O’Malley but I had my doubts as to whether he’d be a champion. Congrats to him.
The counter punch was always his plan for this fight and even said during the post fight interview, this was how it was to go and the only way he was going to win. He did reveal if it did go to ground he was not prepared for what would happen next since he was suffering from something on his side. But knew if he did, Sterling would attack on that fact and completely compromise himself during  the fight.
Congratulations to those who knew Sean O'Malley is a tactical fighter and not just throwing his punches without thinking it through. Just as Aljamain did when he over reached on that one punch which was his last decision he made.
People ended up getting the Suga Show by KO @4.90x right before the fight began so good on them.

I’ve seen a lot of people online discussing why the UFC decided to make Sean O’Malley’s knockout public in a clip for everyone to use right after the fight. This is a bit of a departure from the norm and maybe a sign the sport is normalizing a bit. Perhaps the days of pay per views are nearing an end and a huge network broadcast deal is on the horizon.
The UFC did put the knockout on their youtube channel but it didn't matter to them as it was more like a promotional video for the entire UFC. They rather have the global appeal than the ppvs as they made enough to write off a potential 1000s more if they wanted too. As Dana White had mentioned during the post fight interview. Zhang's clip of her fight reached 1.85 billion views in China within not even a 24 hour period.
So I would think Dana is thinking of bring the UFC show back there for a match between the top two Chinese fighters as the main event.

@arallmuus Nicely taken special @5.60x as the easy part was already done with a Manchester City win just need to wait on Chelsea and Arsenal to complete the betslip for today's games.

We have one sole Sportsbet special for the Sunday matches:

We do appreciate the time that he hyped Bitcoin and made it to almost $70k thanks to his all-out support in DOGE. But I think he's not really meant to be in this space but we can't stop him from making decisions on his own like buying BTC at the dip and selling it high.
He not only hyped up bitcoin for his own purposes but is known to do this for anything he is trying to garner attention too.
Especially toward his companies SpaceX/Tesla/Twitter now all under one company name X.

^  Yup and it helps if you play the game yourself and learn the build orders and stuff.  I think you could now download the original SC/BW anthology for free.  Not sure but akaik it is since Blizzard release StarCraft Remastered.

If you really want to get deep into it a bit more but you don't know where to ask questions about the game, TL.net is the go to forum.  Some of the guys over there have been there for years...  It's really impressive to have that kind of motivation. 

https://tl.net/forum/?filter=broodwar
Thought I had seen some one mention about this 25 year old game. And to hear they are having professional tournament based on it was pretty unbelievable to hear.
You can receive the whole anthology for free from blizzard? Although I thought they went defunct years ago.
They probably still have some sort of branch of the company still inoperation just under a different name.
Such as what happened to CD Projekt RED after cyberpunk and getting reassigned to another company.
