1241  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Terence Crawford vs David Avanesyan December 10 on: October 31, 2022, 11:13:27 PM
It's indeed very disappointing to see Crawford-Spence not pushed through when the timing is perfect, where both still in their prime, and both undefeated and very skilled fighters.

I understand the frustration but surely, after dealing successfully with their respective match, the talks about the possibility of them facing each other will resume next year. It's good that both camps know the problem of why the negotiation failed and they surely will address it in their next talks.

However, there's recent news that Spence might move up to 154 lbs and vacate his title. If this happened, then the unification fight between Crawford and Spence won't happen anymore unless they will meet again on the top of 154 lbs which I think there's only a slight chance of happening given their age.

Pretty crazy line of stats I saw on the ESPN/Sportscenter instagram page yesterday. I think this is about a day old at this point but it still is mostly valid for how crazy things have been for some of the best teams in the league. I do think it shows some signs of parity for the NBA which of course is a good thing for the league overall.

Which teams do you guys think will start to bounce back soon ?

I can't consider that as a basis that the league is now having a big change just because those mentioned teams are not in their usual standing like before. In fact, only a few games are being played yet and the season still has a long way to go.

It's just that there are teams that showing some improvement and shouldn't be surprising.

But regardless of the final standing, every team that will enter playoffs will start at a 0-0 record. That's where the real competition start.

For sure you would be playing more yet its impossible that you wont really be thinking on hitting again when you do play.Bet accidents like this could really happen even how low the odds is but the chances is there.

Actually, OP considered quitting gambling if you refer to its previous threads. OP now has 3 recently created threads about the winning. Lucky or not, I doubt the OP will really quit gambling as the winning experience is something that we always want to experience.

Since that's OP's money, then his rule. I just hope that if ever he will attempt to gamble again, he won't be carried away.

More importantly, don't ever expect that luck can strike anytime during our gambling session.
1244  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Casimero vs Akaho - December 3 on: October 30, 2022, 11:42:37 PM
I think Akaho isn't afraid of fighting Casimero in a toe to toe engagement.  I think Akaho is confident that he can beat Casimero since he has already beaten many Filipinos and all of them by way of KO.

We have to consider that those PH boxers that ended up losing at the hands of Akaho are not even in Casimero's league or even close.

Therefore, this fight against Quadro Alas shouldn't be a problem.

Besides, Akaho, even active in the ring, is now at the point of being considered in a veteran age period and way past his prime.

Or possibly Casimero would be aggressive in this fight since it is possible that Casimero wanted to break the series of winning of Akaho against the Filipino boxers.

That should be, he should be aggressive and I'm expecting he will really be like that as fo sure he's excited to come back.

And no, I doubt he has the purpose to win just to cut the winning series of Akaho against PH boxers.

He is saving his career here and that's the big reason he needs to win.
1245  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casino Websites vs Casino Apps: Which Option is Better? on: October 30, 2022, 11:36:39 PM

In my own preference, it doesn't matter to me whether I will play on websites or applications.

As long as my interest to play those gambling games is there, I will definitely try them out.

But in most cases, if we talk about crypto-gambling, I have never seen such gambling applications being developed by crypto-gambling sites that's why in my overall experience in crypto-gambling, I do play at their respective websites.
1246  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is it really possible to quit on these reasons on: October 30, 2022, 11:33:35 PM
Honestly, treating your gambling activity shouldn't end up on too much technicality.

It's really not necessary to quit as long as you are disciplined and responsible. Gambling is not that bad if you managed to play it right.

If quitting is really a must, then no choice but to help yourself and aggressively force yourself to stop gambling for good.

1248  Economy / Gambling / Re: What is the best thing to do if this happens on: October 30, 2022, 11:28:31 PM
Assuming you gamble on a mid to high-rated gambling website and you won big but they refuse to pay up, what and what are the legal way to make sure that the platform pays up your money?

First, ask them nicely what happened and what are those problems my account went through why do I end up being not paid? Since they are highly reputable, I expect them to have a clear response and tell me everything.

If I found the explanation quite difficult to imagine and I'm sure to myself that I won that big amount thru fair play, that's the time I will prepare all the necessary proofs to post here in the forum and see what others will have to say.

Since there is no legal way to pursue them, the effort to pressure the site is the last resort I can do.
1249  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Crawford vs Spence on: October 29, 2022, 01:05:58 PM

Lots of reasons but I'm more interested in this story:

"Contract talks were agreed upon by Spence’s camp, yet Crawford had issues with the deal. Crawford wanted a fully guaranteed deal and approval on expenses related to the fight. It’s unheard of for a fighter to ask for approval for expenses because that’s normally the promoter’s responsibility.

As much as others believed that Spence is trying to avoid Crawford, for me, that was all just a hate comment towards Spence as even Crawford itself didn't mention that Spence is avoiding why the fight failed.

And the funny thing is, BLK Prime, the one that announced the fight between Crawford and Avanesyan in December isn't ringing a bell for some boxing enthusiasts.

Even Spence said in the interview that he doesn't know who Avanesyan is lol.

Why are DeSoto’s Errol Spence Jr., Terence Crawford not fighting? It’s boxing
1250  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Dmitry Bivol vs Zurdo Ramirez on: October 29, 2022, 12:53:21 PM
So according to Oscar De La Hoya, the promoter of Gilberto "Zurdo" Ramirez believes that his protege will stop Dmitry Bivol and then proceed into a mega all-Mexican fight with Saul "Canelo" Alvarez. De La Hoya believes that Bivol countered Canelo very well because the Mexican superstar only threw single punches at a time. De La Hoya mentioned that Zurdo will be throwing combinations that will deter Bivol's plan to counter. And lastly, he also believes that Zurdo is too big and strong and he can knock out Canelo.

We'll see how De La Hoya's assessment in this fight fares. It is true though that Zurdo being an underdog can add extra fire and determination to train harder.

That's how the statement should be since Zurdo Ramirez is under the Golden Boy Promotions. Therefore, expect that all positive statement will always favor their boxer. If Dela Hoya's pre-match analysis will happen or not, only we can find it out on the day of the match.

As much as I favor Bivol to win this match, it's not that I consider Ramirez a heavy underdog even bookies are telling us how far the distance between them is.

There's a slight adjustment though on Ramirez's odds from 4.30 to 3.90 as of this post.
1251  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I find way to win on dice on: October 29, 2022, 12:43:08 PM
Just let them be on what they do believe or what they do seem its right because once the reality would slapped into their face then this is where realization do kicks in.

Only if they kept that on themselves it would be more good. But since they are sharing those crap thoughts here about martingale, they somehow annoy the community and we should not just ignore it as we are here to at least guide those who think that 'right is right".

With how easy for them to say things like that, especially the below statement, they really need some serious advice.

"There is no way you will fail 7 times and if you do just increase the bet and you will get it back eventually even if you wait 12 times."
1252  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Countries that are Legal and Illegal in gambling on: October 29, 2022, 12:38:04 PM
The list provided by the OP is wrong. Cambodia is one of the major gambling centers in South-east Asia (along with Vietnam), which attracts millions of mainly Chinese gamblers every year. There are close to 125 casinos in Cambodia at this point, with more than 60 of them located in the city of Sihanoukville. Some of the most well known casinos in Cambodia include Nagaworld Casino and Hotel (Phnom Penh), Golden Sea Hotel and Casino (Preah Sihanouk) and Queenco Hotel and Casino (Sihanoukville).

As far as I understand the gambling situation there, gambling is really illegal in Cambodia but it only applies to Cambodian citizens. Therefore, casinos can operate there but the only allowed customer are foreigners. That's why as you mentioned, they attract millions of Chinese gamblers.

If anyone is more knowledgeable about the status of gambling there, they can clarify what's the real score of gambling there.

I found it weird that established casinos there prohibited the people in that country to gamble and only welcome foreign gamblers. On the other hand, it's good to see that they are turning that into the country's advantage.
1253  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you win big in casino, would it be publicized? on: October 29, 2022, 12:17:55 PM
Most of the time it is the gamblers the ones that cannot keep their mouth closed and reveal to everyone that is willing to listen that they won a big amount at the casino, and as we know this is a big mistake as we do not know what kind of people could be listening to that information,

Fair point and actually that was true. These winners feel that unique experience that only possible when winning big that's why in some cases, they can't control themselves to brag about it disregarding the risks of what they are doing. However, we can't blame that action as they are just being carried away with that enjoyment as it's really difficult to hit such a big amount and it might not even happen again.

Actually, that behavior is fine but since there are bad people around, no choice but the adjustment is really a necessary thing to do for these winners.
1254  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casino with an online and offline branch. on: October 29, 2022, 11:58:20 AM
I didn't see any gambling casino launch online gambling supporting in cryptocurrency but if there's I guess this is a really good adaptation because they giving an opportunity to the players also not just limited to their place but also in world wide because it is accessible through web but base on my experience never seen so far.

As far as I know, there's no crypto-gambling casino yet that both have a land-based casino version and an online gambling site. If my knowledge is right, that will have different regulations and I think crypto-based physical casinos should also acquire a license the same as how crypto-related platforms e.g crypto exchanges, needs before operating in the said country.

And I think crypto-casinos should just remain within the online world. No need to consider setting up a physical casino. I also don't think of a way on how to use crypto directly on physical casinos but rather just another form of payment when purchasing chips.
1255  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: October 29, 2022, 11:48:04 AM
Damian Lillard didn't play (calf injury) but Simons and Nurkic stepped up their game to be able to claim the win.

Congrats mate. Nice catching that Portland Trail Blazers -6.5 handicap in the live bet.

The reason is, for almost the entire whole game, Blazers are dominating the Rockets right at the start that's why a handicap of -6.5 for them is unlikely to offer as it was possible for them to cover it. The Rockets are always behind by over 10 points.

I will guess, you got that on 2Q where the Rockets managed to cut the lead by at least 6-7 points if I remember it right. Cheesy
1256  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will This Habit Lead You To Chase Your Losses And Addictive To Gambling on: October 29, 2022, 11:39:03 AM
Do you think it's unhealthy to always post your winnings on social media and forums because this habit will lead you to chase your losses and bet more so you can post your winning, I find this habit forming and this is bad especially if people are following you and always looking forward to your winning posts.

Technically speaking, there's nothing wrong with doing that. That's their own social media account and they are the only ones who will rule it. If those posts are being followed by their followers, they are nothing to do with it since, in the first place, there's no part of the post that is forcing people to follow it.

If you feel bad about it, better just ignore it. You can filter things that you don't want to see on social media or forums.

Don't take that freedom from them. If you are annoyed at those users posting their winnings on any platform, simply removed them on your circle.
1257  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Naoya Inoue vs Paul Butler - Undisputed Bantamweight Bout - December 13 on: October 29, 2022, 11:34:31 AM
However the case of Inoue is different, if he wins his next fight against Butler and he becomes the undisputed he will immediately get a chance to fight for a title, this is the reason Usyk and Canelo after becoming undisputed champions on their division could immediately try to get a championship on the next division, and this is key as it could save Inoue a bunch of fights to prove his worth on the next division,

Naoya Inoue already said a couple of months ago that he wants to face the current WBC and WBO super bantamweight Champion Stephen Fulton once he moved up a weight division and successfully achieved being the undisputed bantamweight champion by defeating Paul Butler.

The Japanese monster is really comfortable that he can easily adopt well to the 122 lbs environment from 118 lbs.

“At 122 pounds, I can move more, and I think I can demonstrate my strength more. I don’t know how much damage I can do to opponents who should be naturally bigger. It will be an unknown world. - Naoya Inoue
1258  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A lottery's defense to not paying a huge winning. on: October 29, 2022, 11:22:45 AM
The question is ?
What do you really think of the lottery company and is there any chance for them to winning the case and not paying the winner?

Reading the article, we don't know how the lottery company defend their stand that the said winner is engaged in irregularities that's why they voided the winning. On the other hand, the said winner also defend his stand that he won fair and square.

The news just told us what generally happened in the court trial and we don't know who will be favored.

To win the case of course either by the lottery company or the complainant, both parties just need to provide all the necessary valid arguments with proof.
1259  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: October 29, 2022, 11:14:41 AM
Like you said, there will always be teams that will sign Russ, but right now there aren't because his current contract compared to his performance isn't equal. He is being overpaid and you aren't expecting him to play like he was few years ago. He isn't helpful at the Lakers as well.

Honestly, if we will analyze what happened during the off-season when the Los Angeles Lakers are trying to trade Westbrook, there are teams that maybe disregard the value of Westbrook's contract and are even willing to pay him based on what is left on his Lakers contract as long as part of the deal will involve the future 1st round picks of the Lakers. That's how valuable first-round picks that's why they might gamble paying Russ with such an amount as long as these teams will get the rights of the Laker's future 1st round picks.

But as you said, it's good to keep the current roster as it is and I even pointed out that prior to the season. And besides, the Lakers seem not aggressive in trading Westbrook as we all know that if the Lakers really push on something, they are good at that.

The Lakers are now at a 0-5 start and the last time Lebron James experienced that 0-5 start of the season was way back in his rookie years in the Cavaliers, 2003-2004 NBA season. Instead of Westbrook, we might see LBJ showing signs of leaving the team lol.
1260  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The High Rollers and The Plebs - Who Wins The Most? on: October 29, 2022, 10:59:33 AM
What does this tell you?
Does this mean that the higher the amount we wager at a go, the higher the chance of ending up profit at the end of the day?
Or do you think it is all based on luck?, that is to say that the account with $5 on it wasnt just lucky today and thereby was unable to make any profit no matter how small?

Those considered luck-based games such as dice, roulettes, slots, etc. are following a certain algorithm where the final result is randomly given. The provided house edge, RTPs, and any related thing that intends to give casinos an advantage also plays a big role in the result of each of our bets.

Therefore, regardless of whether the wagered amount is high or not, that obviously won't have any effect on your winning or losing chances.

I don't see what's the connection of the account's current balance on why a user wins or not. It's just that those high rollers have a large bankroll that can last in a long run making it possible that on the way, they might take home the big win.
