1581  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Tank Davis vs. Ryan Garcia betting and discussion (May, 2023) on: February 01, 2023, 05:59:33 PM
When it comes to defense, I'll go with tank davis. His footwork is so good that he dodged a lot of punches from his last fight between him and hector garcia. His punch is so powerful that bigger opponents can't take the damage in their body. I don't know if Ryan has a body that can take the punch of Tank but he is an orthodox fighter and he has a crazy fast hooks and jabs. He dropped Javier Fortuna with his crazy jabs. The hook of King Ryan is also powerful so we should expect that we can see hooks vs hooks between him and Tank.

Well, I can't deny that Tank Davis has a physique that supports him a lot, especially when it comes to defending himself and even resisting goals, it's something that he has like armor, it's not bad, and in part this could be an impediment for Garcia It is also as you say, his technique is rudimentary, like the combination of the old school and new things that are only his own style, now, if we are going to see García's style, he may be preparing For this, I believe a lot in Garcá's strategy, he is an intelligent boxer, and he must know what his own capacity is and how his strategy should be so that he can come out victorious.

Yes, I'll go with Davis as well as it's a wiser move rather than siding with Ryan Garcia. This doesn't mean that I'm underestimating the latter but we are here talking and speculating about their upcoming fight. We all know that Ryan Garcia got no experience about fighting heavy names as of now because he had to be in a back-to-back tune-up fight so that he can regain himself after the Campbell fight where his weakness was revealed.

And speaking about weakness, Garcia will have a hard time finding Tank's because that's still a mystery until now and it seems that he got a good armor equipped on his body which give him another upper hand.

  • 5. Credit Card Fraud
    At gambling websites, it is very typical to see thieves using stolen credit cards. If they can get the card to work, they can quickly and easily cash out. Cybercriminals can use a stolen credit card to top up an online casino account. From there, they can withdraw in cryptocurrency.
That is why it is good to protect your phone against sim swap attack, if OTP is not received, the scam will not be successful. But the most important thing is to protect your card pin, if protected and not known to scammers, they will not be able to withdraw from your bank. In my country, this type of scam is common, the scammer will call you, doing as if they are from your bank, ask you about an OTP sent to your phone or asking about your pin. There are some that do not require pin, but do not give scammer OTP sent to your phone, even do not bother to talk with them at all.

Had a few encounters about these things, and even my family especially the older ones who are not that updated to scams on the internet are getting some calls that they are from a bank or online platform that you had some malicious activities or that you have a bonus $100-1,000 credit but it's the scammers behind the line. Sometimes, older people are the most vulnerable from these attacks as most of the times, they got emotional from the news and give their PIN or OTP easily.

Crazy ending to that Lakers game. LeBron got another chance to get a game winner but this time he passed the ball to Anthony Davis who then committed an offensive foul which ended up with the game going to overtime. They still won and LeBron moved a little closer to the record. Westbrook seemed to get a lot of crunch time minutes as well.

That was a lucky break for the Knicks, it's just that their last play was not planned well, I think it should be Brunson who should take the last shot as he is hot in that game, for sure if he missed it, he might get a foul. I don't understand why it was Randle who took the last shot.

Randle, as I observed him, he wanted to be the go-to guy of the team. I also consider that it should be Brunson to take that last
shot as he got a much better percentage, and he's not new in carrying a team.

Remember when Luka was out during the semis against the Sun's this man really help the team to win games and not to allow
Suns to take advantage of them.
When Brunson was still with the Dallas Mavericks, it was Randle who is the go to guy, unfortunately he is not a clutch player that's why they struggle in the playoffs. I think it's always the coach decision that has to be followed, the fact that he took the last shot, the design of play was probably on him.

But nothing that can be changed now, good to see that Lakers wins might be another controversial missed call.

I believe it was not a missed call, it's an offensive foul by the Davis, was challenge and the challenge was unsuccessful.

Probably, that was a call from coach Thibodeau because he wanted Randle to take the shot to see if how well he is in handling the pressure, you know just to see if he had some changes while they are still playing in regular games as it's better to know first who are the players that will be reliable enough when situations got tough because I reckon not all the time Brunson will be with the team and healthy.

Seems a long way away but it’ll likely fly by & we’ll be here before we know it. Too early to start predicting who will in it, Messi won’t be playing nor Ronaldo. So much can happen in football in that amount of time. The US actually have a good, young team. They could surprise a few people with home advantage.
France will be there, Mbappe should be in his peak, Spain have some real stars too.
I won’t make any solid predictions though.

You just said it yourself mate, it's still too premature to say anything towards the upcoming FIFA World Cup this 2026 and saying that Messi nor CR7 not playing is still a speculation as both superstars haven't hung their boots/cleats yet. Although, there's been a wide rumor already that CR7's last dance is in Euro 2024 but that will remain a mere speculation as of now because people are still believing that both superstar will still play in the FIFA as it will heavily boost their comrades confidence especially Messi as they are the defending champs.

I was talking to a neighbour within the weekend and suddenly he grew so much passion in wanting to invest but now the problem is that his wanting me do this for him with excuses of not having the basic knowledge and I've told him to Google and do his own research about it.
I want to know if it's safe to buy Bitcoin without having the basic knowledge of it ?

The question is, are you willing to grab that kind of responsibility? You know that's not an easy task as you yourself already know the risks entailed with investing cryptocurrencies as there's no such thing as assurance in this industry. Even if you hold it for a long-term, what's in it for you? And how sure are you that your neighbor will have that profits in the future? I doubt, it's not worth the risk.

How can someone ends up in debt after winning 5 times the lottery?, that was some kind of bruteforce gambling.

Too bad she was using the graduation money, for sure wasn't easy for the students to get that money and was easy for her to gamble those funds, she should go to jail for those actions, it's called karma. And even if she goes to jail the students will not recover that money at all.
That means she’s totally addicted to lottery that she even use the graduation funds to fulfill her desire in gambling. Well, that is an advantage to her because she’s probably the class treasurer but using them for betting, that action really deserves a punishment. And if the school will strictly follow its policy, she might be even banned from school and might not even included in the graduation ceremony. Her parents might not be solely blamed for this but they should be accountable of their daughter’s actions.

The growth of technology such as internet, mobile phone, etc as well as the growth of the online gambling industry does affect the possibility of faster addiction.
It is an undeniable fact but we should not blame the growth of technology and gambling industry if the addiction is also growing fast.
We responsible for ourselves and responsible for our own family, we should know how to prevent the possibility of getting addicted to something.
In this case, we should aware about the positive and negative effect of technology and gambling industry if we do not want to be affected negatively.
Indeed, this online casino that is more accessible than traditional casinos is paving its way to closer addiction for gamblers. But let’s not blame completely online casino for that as we are always responsible with our own actions. If we are undisciplined gamblers, regardless if it’s online or traditional casino, we will always end up in addiction. But if we only gamble for enjoyment during our free time, online gambling will be a bit more relevant as you can always access it even at the comfort of our home.
1588  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I managed to invite 1 of my friends to invest in bitcoin on: January 30, 2023, 07:40:44 PM
That could be the possible scenario once the seller started to endure losses. But I doubt if he will invest immediately without studying about bitcoin on his own self, as every investment needs prior preparation and deep research before you finally decide to put your money at a risky investment.
Sometimes I wonder if investing is really the best step after some minimal introduction just as in the case of OP. U dont know if the narration is one that comes with some absolute truth but, it's just too early to want to invest almost immediately. You must have been very convincing in your small talks with your supposedly friend and I think you could do well in affiliate marketing with your talent.

Its nice to have brought your neighbour on board and most of all, introduced him to the forum but still, your guidance doesn't end there for him. There is a lot he needs to know and I hope you don't hesitate when the questions come pouring down because it does.
Seems like OP has its strong power to convince someone regardless if those being said are based on facts and are legit. Because he never hesitate on his decision to convince the seller right away to invest in bitcoin, and since the seller has no knowledge too when it comes how risky and volatile bitcoin is, yet his being reckless still push it through. I just hope both have think first it a lot of times before jumping into conclusion and investing quickly into bitcoin without even preparing for it. Well, good luck for both of them, especially for the seller, as he will surely be surprised as to how his investment has turned out.

ChatGPT isn't a trading tool, it's simply just create a random paragraph from an article or someone thought, if you think ChatGPT is credible and you can trust your money with this bot, I have no words to say for you.

There are many people really want to make money quickly without doing anything, but most people are just stupid for believe anything about automatic tool or robot trading that they think it will work without any understanding behind the tool.
It’s like that every opportunity that comes, people will seize for it even if they end up believing that ChatGPT is a way to make money in trading. But the problem is they don’t even know what ChatGPT is all about and I think it’s never gonna work in trading as trading will never be fixed and will always follow an uncertain market. And since ChatGPT has it’s also limits too, though it’s goodly set for business and in other massive learning ideas, but when it comes to trading, i just think this chatbot is never enough to predict a successful trading.
1590  Economy / Economics / Re: Don’t Fall Prey to these Market Sentiments and Save your Bitcoin on: January 30, 2023, 06:37:31 PM
The best advice to follow is to see bitcoin as a long term investment vehicle. Ignore all outside noise, FUD & short term price movements. You will not lose money if you buy bitcoin & hold it long term. For any noob, just starting to buy now, it might be hard for you to become rich by buying only bitcoin in the short term but if you buy bitcoin regularly over many years you will be in a good position.

Save bitcoin alongside regular monthly fiat or pension contributions. 20 years of DCA (dollar-cost-averaging) monthly into bitcoin will put you in a nice position to enjoy a comfortable retirement.
Bitcoin will always be profitable especially if you see it as a long term investment. Forget about bitcoin as as a get-rich-quick scheme as only poor minds fall for it, that’s why they never end up successful investing in bitcoin because of that mindset. But if you keep doing DCA everytime there is an opportunity to buy, and you place them for long term hodling, that’s when you start seeing sustainable profits and even put yourself in a very good position as long as you keep the faith by hodling your bitcoin, and you stay out of panic buying and selling.
1591  Economy / Economics / Re: Success is fundamentally determined by luck, not effort. on: January 29, 2023, 09:30:02 PM
It's great that you've had the opportunity to reconnect with successful uncles from your extended family and hear about their experiences. It's true that hard work is important for success, but luck and opportunity can also play a big role. The key is to be prepared for those opportunities when they come, and to keep working hard so that when luck does come your way, you're in a position to take advantage of it. It's also important to remember that success doesn't always mean monetary wealth, success can come in many forms, such as personal growth, happiness, and a sense of fulfillment. So, focus on your goals, work hard, be open to new opportunities and don't forget to enjoy the journey
I also believe that luck could play a big role in success. But never rely for luck alone, as we don’t even know when will it actually hit us. So let’s focus on taking advantage first on every opportunity that comes and always give the best for it so that when luck finally comes, all our efforts and hardwork will paid off, plus the luck that will finally put us in a great position. As there’s no main ingredient in success, but if you pour hardwork on it, most likely you’ll get lucky too at the end of the day. That’s how success happens.

Don't know what's wrong with Poole but likely he's trying to prove he is good or just showing off, too bad for Curry to be triggered like that. I think he should behave more old on his seniors because this isn't the first time he did this kind of attitude.
Showing off most likely, I am glad it ended at his hands too because that erases the mistakes he done. But Steve Kerr should still point it out to him, all the turnovers and poor decisions he is making.
Speaking of Poole, after the game Steph Curry was waiting in the dugout to congratulate the team and Poole was the last one, he made a joke out of the frustration action of Curry throwing his mouthguard. Poole mimics what he did and also threw his mouthguard before he gets near Steph. Hilarious.
https://twitter.com/GoIdenState/status/1618493239786639361?s=20&t=T-JOlfPYJ3ayQEehhxT7Og

If they lose on that segment for sure Curry will get disappointed about what Poole done in that sequence but since they won and Poole got a huge recovery for the mistake he done well that somehow erase the pressure. But still as what you said Kerr still need to correct that since this could start up another heated argument to their rooster and might could destroy their chemistry so coach should do their job to correct their players action next time to avoid their player getting ejected on the game since this is crucial especially if this will happen again to curry.

But it was just one game, Poole was also thinking that he can make it but failed. Good thing in the end he delivered a big win for the team. Curry understand the urgency of winning as they are not in a comfortable standing, and it's a shame that a depending champion would not even make it to the playoffs.

One game is important since it could destroy their relationship especially if the player is hard headed and will not follow the play set or play their role on the team. But since they win it eliminate the tension and now they are back ballin again. Poole shouldn't do it again because its very crucial matter if the same thing will happen and Curry or any other important player will get ejected to the game due to disappointment since this might be the reason to their defeat in a game.


Remember the time when Green and KD got an argument, they manage to bring them together and continue the season, but
after that look, where's KD now?

It is very important that the chemistry is still intact. The good example is how the splash bro works, Klay knows Steph is the main man
and he respects that and that's how they keep winning titles.

Looking to see if how Curry and Poole will continue to play together and how coach Kerr will take care of this.

The management are surely looking at the matter seriously because if they let them be, this issue will become worse and worse as the day goes by and destroying the whole roster. But that's not yet the worst part because they won't know that their standing is getting lower and lower until they can't join the upcoming playoffs. Looking at Poole closely, I like the fact that he is confident to shoot the ball because he can indeed make it and he is good at crucial moments, but the problem is, his head is getting bigger.
1593  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue - WBC and WBO 122 lbs bout - May on: January 28, 2023, 03:24:56 PM

On the contrary, I think Inoue has face a lot of great boxers, so not sure what Fulton can offer in this fight that Inoue hasn't seen in my opinion. No doubt that Fulton is good, but the power of Inoue will be too much for him specially that Inoue will added 4 pounds in his frame.

It might be the Fulton be the bigger guy if this is his weight, but Inoue's combination of power and speed will give anyone a problem here.

I wanted to see Fulton vs Figueroa 2 as well because the fight one is really close.

Fulton will regret this fight, none of his opponents of Inoue in the past has not gone down because of his power, so I don't think Fulton will be an exception, especially since Inoue is making his debut in the super bantamweight division, he will make sure that he will again have an impressive win.

For now we will say that he is not regretting, just like what Butler says prior to the fight. But after the fight it was a different tune for Butler as he admitted that Inoue's punches are hard.

So probably the same case with Stephen in the beginning, but when the time comes that they are the only 2 standing in the ring and they began exchanging punches, then maybe at the back of his mind he will says that he sign his death wish for fighter a boxer with Inoue's power.

Can't really make sure about that as we know that Fulton got some pride as well because he managed to possess two of the 4 belts, WBC and WBO. Besides, I'm more than inclined that he is quite confident enough to fight with Inoue without any worries because he hasn't yet fought someone or any boxer that comes near with Inoue's league. So, this time, it's his turn to taste a punch from a true monster and it will surely be fun watching these two clashing.
1594  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIFA World Cup 2026 :Canada/Mexico/United States: Discussion Thread on: January 28, 2023, 02:55:39 PM
And don't forget the next World Cup will hosted by three separate countries, so expect that there will some games that will be played simultaneously.

Yes, it's not hard to do more games simultaneously, USA alone is a huge country, with great infrastructure to travel, Canada and Mexico will host only 10 matches each one, but it will help, so it's not a impossible task.

Yes, I just found out that the USA will host most of the games especially the qualifiers onwards, 40 games to be exact and it's quite reasonable because they got bigger stadiums that can cater hundreds of thousands of people at once. The FIFA won't let the players get exhausted for travelling in and out towards other countries especially when the games are getting more intense.
I also think the reason why USA will be hosting most of the games in the 2026 world-cup tournament is because they are the main host, Mexico and casino are just an assist if am permitted to put it that way.
If for example, FIFA went with their previous style of one country hosting the entire world cup for the season, I believe it is the turn of the USA, so this is why FIFA has to focus more on USA and make sure most of the games are played there, like I said before, Mexico and Canada are just like an assist, they are just assisting.

I guess that's one way to look at it because most games are indeed will be hosted by the USA, while Canada and Mexico only got 10 games each out of the 60 whole month games. But I guess there are some more deeper reasons than that and not just because the North American continent has 3 countries and I found out this while I'm scrolling through the web.

Quote
The soccer federations of the U.S., Canada and Mexico agreed to submit a joint bid to FIFA to host the competition. The bid won in 2018, with a majority of FIFA’s congress voting to grant rights to the three nations.

Although this is not the first time as well that a World Cup will be hosted by a numerous country because the same situation happened back in 2002 where South Korea and Japan bid together to host the World Cup.
1595  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Nonito Donaire vs Jason Moloney on: January 27, 2023, 08:14:49 PM
The last title shot of Nonito Donaire in his career. He needs to win this as another achievement on his legacy.

Nonito Donaire is the oldest bantamweight boxer who managed to get the WBC Bantamweight Title when he KO Nordine Oubaali. He was 38 years old at that time. Fast forward and currently, at 40 years old, we can fairly say that he still got a chance to take another shot at the title and he should have fairly handled Jason Moloney.

Donaire already experienced fighting a monster, not once but twice, and was able to give that monster the toughest fight of its career. Moloney is not even close to the level of that monster. I will favor Donaire here to win the match.

Good comparison and same here, I'm also rooting for Donaire to win against Moloney. Certainly not because of some pity as this might be Donaire's last title approach but because I know that he can still handle this fight well and might give a knockout as just like you've said, Moloney isn't in the same league with Inoue, so that will give him a slights upper hand as he also got more experience.

The bond of the Warriors is already deep, they understand each other and surely knows that there will be such a time that one or two of them will be having a bad night as it's also understandable because of the stress that will wear them out at most days. The important thing is that they managed to recover despite of the failures they had lately, there's still some room for them to avoid some unwanted situations so that they can still play in the playoffs.

David Benavidez: I promise I’m going to knock out Caleb Plant



Quote
David Benavidez’s fight with Caleb Plant is now fully official for March 25 on Showtime pay-per-view, with the fight taking place at Las Vegas’ MGM Grand Garden Arena, and the unbeaten super middleweight is promising a knockout finish.

“I’ve been working my ass off like never before. This is my moment in life where I get to show why I am the best super middleweight in the world, and that’s exactly what all my fans will see,” Benavidez wrote on social media.

“I promise all my fans I’m going to knock out Caleb Plant. Y’all ain’t gonna want to miss this one.”

Benavidez (26-0, 23 KO) will surely be the betting favorite (DraftKings don’t have a line up just yet, but should soon with the fight now officially set), but Plant (22-1, 13 KO) is definitely his best opponent to date on paper. That can’t really be said the other way, but the only opponent Plant has had who comes close to Benavidez on paper is Canelo Alvarez, who stopped Plant in the 11th round in late 2021.

Seems that all spotlight is aiming towards David Benavidez now, I just hope he won't get blinded by the light and will still stood his ground about his goal so that he could face Canelo Alvarez in the near future. Honestly, I'm really not a fan of a boxer who will bark first before showing some proof and saying that he will knockout and defeat in a mere (figure) rounds. What I want to see is how will David prove his existence in this category so that he will be favored to fight the undisputed.
1598  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Artur Beterbiev vs Anthony Yarde on: January 27, 2023, 04:56:23 PM
Looking at the votes ? Artur seems to be the dominant in this fight but looking at their stats? I'm not sure there are something special when they both have that long list of winning and also via knockout .

so I assume that this would be fairly judged and I don't wanna give my votes to anyone but Draw lol. because I am not interested in betting in this match but I will watch the replay .

Not seems because Artur Beterbiev has always been dominant throughout his fights and based in stats, he's the one who got the prettier record as aside from being an undefeated, he also got a 100% KO rate which makes him the KO specialist among all KO specialist in the boxing industry right now. Not to underestimate Yarde because I know he's a decent boxer who got a good record too but against Beterbiev? I doubt he can make a difference. And don't worry, I'm quite positive that this fight will be fair and square.
fair point mate , But what I do believe is that as long as the fight still not happening each boxer has the chance to improve and find the weakness of opponent .
and yes have just watch Artur's fights last night and it is impressive wins so there is a  big possibilities that he will dominate this fight and put Yarde on the ground .

Well, yes, the respective camps won't surely waste some of their precious times because every minute counts as they also know that the other camp is also doing everything they can to prove a point and to find such weakness to improve their boxer's chances to win the said bout. Already excited to see this fight soon and to see if Yarde can really prove what he is trying to say all this time.

I say something, if Yarde wins this fight, what will Beterbiev and all his fans think then? How could he face this? It is known that he is a boxer who has quite a reputation and is highly respected in this world, I don't know if Yarde is enough of this opponent, some say that Beterbiev will knock him out quickly, some put them in 2 rounds and so it is the maximum that he He will be able to hold on, I think the fight could be extended, I don't think it's that easy Yarde, I also see that in many forts they have underestimated him and that is not good, underestimating a boxer at this point is not good, everyone knows their strategy, but if something like not being capable is added to it, it can be a big surprise.

An interesting prediction:

Artur Beterbiev vs Anthony Yarde: preview and prediction



Quote
One of boxing’s most dramatic shows rolls into 2023 early. Light-heavyweight champion Artur Beterbiev is known mostly for one thing: he hits ludicrously, cartoonishly hard. There are other big punchers in the sport, of course, but possibly no-one today — not even at heavyweight — lands each punch as concussively as the 38-year-old Russian. In his nine years as a pro, he’s steamrolled every opponent who’s stepped in with him.

The fight most want to see him in is, of course, fellow light heavyweight champ Dmitry Bivol. In the absence of that, though, he’ll happily look to wreck his way through all comers, so here he is, travelling to London for this one, against the flawed-but-dangerous Anthony Yarde.

Well, I think nobody here is underestimating Anthony Yarde, really and I understand them because I know that they are just basing based on facts and not just because they have a hunch. Moreover, saying that this fight would only take two rounds because Beterbiev will defeat Yarde by then is a bit extreme and haven't yet read or talk to someone that they're indeed predicting the same scenario.

Hehe no doubt about Manny Pacquiao, the guy hasn't faced any criticism that he avoided the fight that's why lots of people and fans are favoring him and labeling him as one of the greatest boxer in the history. Anyway, rumors will remain rumors as long as there will be no official announcement but think that the Davis-Garcia fight will materialize but for the profit discussion, Davis has got to be in the A-side even if he's already flying alone now. 

That's why I miss him, he is a kind of fighter that does not care about his undefeated record, he just fight and always go for a big fight, the reason why he is one of the richest in the sports of boxing. Manny Pacquiao had already retired, but good thing he still do some exhibition fights, so we can still see him in the ring although not pro  anymore.

Davis and Garcia should show the world that they don't care about their undefeated record, they have to fight the best to entertain the fans, because the fans looks like they are robbed when a boxer is just cherry picking to ensure their win.

Manny's mindset is really of a true warrior, he doesn't care about if he has losses or not, as long as he will face the best of his division or for every division that he goes up. But the best is that he fought 3 of Mexico's great warriors, all HOF'ers and that's what makes money a legendary fighter.

As compare to the new breed like Ryan and Tank Davis who are protected by their promotions and doesn't want to see them losses because they are cash cows. But in this fight, someone will experience his first taste of defeat.

Although Bob Arum is known for milking his cash cow, he was able to give Manny Pacman a great future in boxing, and he is the main reason why Pacman is now a legend in sports of boxing. Maybe things have really change now, boxers just like to be comfortable in order to retain their belts, they don't want to risk against a fighter who have a good record, and if that will continue, this boxing industry will suffer in the long run.

Both Bob Arum and Manny Pacquiao needed each other and both benefited from the situation, it's not a one-way road for them and Manny Pacquiao wouldn't leave Bob Arum's stable if both of them got a pure understanding towards each others goal but no, Bob Arum still wanted a safer journey for the getting older Manny to maintain his value but the latter doesn't want that treatment as he believe to himself that he can still win some fights even if he's age is getting older. Hence, why MP Promotions was built.

And don't forget the next World Cup will hosted by three separate countries, so expect that there will some games that will be played simultaneously.

Yes, it's not hard to do more games simultaneously, USA alone is a huge country, with great infrastructure to travel, Canada and Mexico will host only 10 matches each one, but it will help, so it's not a impossible task.

Yes, I just found out that the USA will host most of the games especially the qualifiers onwards, 40 games to be exact and it's quite reasonable because they got bigger stadiums that can cater hundreds of thousands of people at once. The FIFA won't let the players get exhausted for travelling in and out towards other countries especially when the games are getting more intense.
