Anyways for a recap, these are the final tally of our AFC Championship outrights betting here:

Talk N Text - harizen (Php 5,000) - FULL
Magnolia -
San Miguel Beermen -jakelyson (Php 1,000) , bisdak40 (Php 2,000) , Sanitough (Php 2,000) - FULL
Meralco Bolts -

The betting will be opened again if both series will even next game Smiley I hope there will be bettors to support Magnolia and Meralco.

If anyone wants to bet on SMB, try to find other bettors for TNT.

Can't risk more for TNT as that's just my wild guess and not really a fan of them. My preferred team was already in Boracay and "Kangkungan" haha.

I understand your point as in the first place, the trilogy will not be initiated and planned for long if there are no doubts and questions about the first result on which Canelo claimed he won already twice that's why before, he's not interested in the trilogy. In fairness though with Canelo, he really shows explosiveness in that fight but it's just that, the entire match is close that any judges will have difficulty scoring.

And since Canelo is the current "cash cow" there are speculations and rumors that judges might be favored him. But that won't be easy as in the event that GGG shows pure dominance in most rounds, I doubt there will be an unfair judgment on the result.

I raised this topic (jury bias) a few weeks back, because I saw the same during the Bivol vs Canelo fight. Bivol completely dominated the fight between these two, but in the end the scorecard(115-113, 115-113, 115-113) was a lot closer than what I thought it should have been. The writing on the wall is clear. Canelo is the cash cow and he needs to be saved at any cost. A second consecutive defeat will not only sink his career, but will also cause huge losses to firms such as Golden Boy and DAZN. 

You have a point though and I think there are lots of speculators who also ended up to that conclusion.

Despite Bivol turning Canelo into a punching bag and making the latter becomes frustrated, the final tally score is still close.

However, since it's clear as the sky that Bivol dominates Canelo in the most rounds of their fight, it does not make sense to manipulate the scores as that will create havoc as the fight should be a landslide win by Bivol.

But disregarding that speculation of a possible "rigged", I'm expecting that the result of the fight of this trilogy should be fair and square.

They are looking for potential trade with Aaron Gordon since Gordon is still young and has a lotof room for improvement. Is this unfair to Green once this trade proceed?

If that happened for real, Draymond Green should already know and understand the fact that there's a possibility in the future that a core team is meant to be broken and that includes the possibility that he is the one who will be involved in the trade. Business as usual.

Draymond, if ever considered shipped to other teams, just needs to do his best to help that team. Just be on his usual.

Besides, he is now enjoying several championship rings. No need to force or be aggressive to have another one unless the championship does really matter to him until he finally hangs his jersey. If the offer to other teams is decent, why not? He should think wise.
1644  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Japanese Animation Slot Machines on: August 08, 2022, 04:07:16 PM
I personally wouldn't play this slot because I'm not a "Madoka Magica" fan, even if its RTP was 99% instead of 96%-98% in slots I normally play. But if I were a big fan of these anime television series, I would play it even if its RTP was 94%.

Generally, your factor and consideration of playing slots depends highly on "Themes>RTP".

If that is so, you might miss some of the good slots with better RTPs since themes are a factor for you. Well, regardless and we already know about this fact, even how good the RTP is, it doesn't mean we will have a good luck on that slots so nothing wrong with your criterias of choosing.

Sometimes, players really prefer to choose a slot based on themes over anything else.

How do you consider Poker a skill based game and not a luck based game ?
Poker hands are completely luck based as you have no control over it. However, there is a little element of thinking and decision making, due to which some people consider it skill based.

Saying poker was completely "luck-based" seems not appropriate.

If everything here is just about luck, then there should be no such thing as "professional" poker players. Some poker players are called professional in the first place because they can able to think of various strategies to use in different situations regardless of how good or bad their card is. There are even bad cards that can turn the table and that's because of good skills.

Back to the topic, if these popular casino games like poker are now considered sports by some countries, then it means it's getting more appreciation. Aside from that, the fact that it was considered sports means it meets the criteria of becoming as a sport or becomes eligible to be considered by that.
1646  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Crawford vs Spence on: August 07, 2022, 11:34:20 PM
Danny Garcia might say that Spence is better than Crawford, but I would believe more on Shawn Porter who faced both boxers and IIRC, Porter said that Crawford is the better fighter, so maybe if we listen to this guy, we will have a good basis and we will not be biased.

Regardless of their experience, there will be a different approach obviously between Crawford and Spence once they faced each other in the ring. Garcia and Porter's experience can't be applied now to the analysis as both Crawford and Spence will surely have different strategies against each other compared to when they faced Garcia and Porter.

Well, the reporters just ask about their sentiment and speculations that's why they provide their respective statements towards Crawford and Spence.

Their speculations obviously came from their own experienced and not being biased.

Well, Twitch is a bit picky and full of shit when it comes to gambling on it's platform. You are not allowed to post your affiliate links anymore and you are not allowed to advertise the domain of the site that you are gambling on.

This is why Eddie (co-owner) of Stake.com moved away from Twitch and he is now streaming on DLive.  Wink  In any way.... Slot streaming will go down, when these platforms start to make more strict rules.  Tongue

Since Twitch is now getting bigger, expect that the platform will have more strict rules.

Not sure though but maybe part of the regulations. Just like on Youtube.

Youtube before is not that strict regarding gambling content but look at them now, banning channels related to gambling content without giving the specific reason of why that channel ban or what thing they violated on Youtube's terms. It's still fine to stream gambling on Youtube but there are rules now.
1648  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: August 07, 2022, 11:24:37 PM

Impressive clutch shot by Jayson Castro to seal the win. No fear dashing to the other court and taking that shot. No set of plays nor waited for his teammates but just a mindset that he needs to made that shot with 9 secs left. He can consider for 2 points but bravely managed to take that shot.

But prior to that Castro's clutch shot, there are also a series of clutch shots made by both teams, especially Mags' Mark Barroca. TNT's Mikey Williams seems not on his usual night. He missed that free clutch layup that can give them a 4 points lead prior to Barroca making a clutch shot too that even the score 90-90.

This series was intense to watch! Hope for a close game again on Game 4.

Yeah, I am sure he will probably still stream on twitch. YouTube is the big one though, at least I think. Steve definitely considered himself a YouTuber, so I assume that platform brings in far more revenue for advertisers than other platforms. Maybe I don’t know what im talking about and he’ll be as popular as ever on TikTok, but that’s a shame for me because I’ll never see it.

That's unfortunate that after building and gathering lots of subscribers in the process, the channel was banned without even pointing to the specific reason his channel did. Youtube doesn't give the exact details and just says the channel violated the terms.

Although Youtube is much bigger, I think they are more sensitive now regarding any gambling content. That might be the reason Youtube banned his channel.

But the banned should be temporary as not all of his content are gambling-related.

Well  in that they are right, because that Blockchain gives them back the money, that is very bad publicity, two years ago I saw a service that had to be paid to be able to reverse a transaction by blockchain but that is within a limited time range, of course it was a service, but it was not from blockchain.com but rather apart from it, so the truth is that when they tell lies in that way it is confusing, and it is not the idea.

Regardless, users should not be tricked that something like chargeback happened in crypto. Obviously, how come a chargeback is possible where in the very first place, the company offering that service won't be to contact the scam site involved? Where will the chargeback money that is supposed to be recovered by the user's will come from?

Seems users are very aggressive and determined to get back the money that got scammed, they will easily believe in such chargeback service and will not use their respective common sense that their money is now gone for good. These people who got scammed also have to pay that company claiming they can do a chargeback and that's another loss of money for them.

Double scam in progress.
1651  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: August 07, 2022, 10:49:16 PM
I've been doing some searches on my own, but I would like to know if someone could tell me some kind of website where they show the possible transactions and negotiations of the teams we will have in this new season?

Since you said "possible transactions" then it's not officially signed or deal, right?

If so, that can be still considered a rumor. Just hit the Google search with the keyword "NBA trade rumors" or something along those lines.

But for let's say all the teams that officially signed a player this off-season, you can check the summary here:

What do you think about these japanese slot machines?
Do you like them?
Would you gamble on them?

I think that should not be a question since, in the first place, it won't change the winning chance per spin. The RTP is still the same regardless of themes.

Referring to online slots, maybe what I will just find is how good and attractive their free spin is,  or what are the other surprises include in that slots. If I found it impressive, I'm expecting there's a buy-in feature on that slot to make my session intense and much more entertaining. That applies to other slot themes as well.

Referring to physical slots like the one you have shared here, regardless of the theme, I might try them because it's an actual experience.
1653  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Martingale Betting Strategy on BlackJack, how effective it is? on: August 07, 2022, 10:29:02 PM
in sports betting, for example, you should not bet on odds below @1.60 because it only generates long-term damage unless the person makes a multi bet and adds it to the parlay of games with odds of less than 1.60, this is profitable.

That's not making sense. You conclude already that it's a sure win if a bettor always does a parlay with sets of bets within the odds of less than @1.60 since you say it's "profitable". That's even a risky move compared to a single bet.

When you say "profitable" the winning chance should be high but I don't see how betting on a parlay with the sets of small odds can make it possible.

Aside from that, to feel the profits on a parlay with the series of matches with low odds, you need to include more parlay legs on that bet adding some more risks. Placing a high stake won't also do the trick and that's even riskier.
1654  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: August 06, 2022, 11:51:49 PM
Since both series are tied at 1-1, maybe you can still extend the cut-off time til the next game. Perhaps fans of Magnolia and Meralco want to throw some bets on them. They show good plays in their games earlier.

Yes, bro. That was really the plan and I'm even glad that both series are now even to give an equal chance for those hesitant to place a bet for Magnolia and Meralco. Come on, guys! Please join the fun. Smiley

Just place your desired bet on the team that you think will be crowned as the All-Filipino Champion then we will tally it later on a first come first serve basis.

Php 5,000 / max bet per team

Bet: Php 5,000 max bet/team | Winner Take All

Talk N Text - harizen (Php 5,000) - FULL
Magnolia -
San Miguel Beermen -jakelyson (Php 1,000) , bisdak40 (Php 2,000)
Meralco Bolts -

The cut-off time for placing bets is 5 minutes (4:25 PM) before Game 3 starts on Sunday, August 7, 4:30 PM, PH time.

I will go for 2,000 SMB to win the championship.

It would be nice if the amount will increase as I could go as high as Php7000, so the total bet for the team will be Php10,000.

That would be easy if only there were lots of users who want to participate.

Php 5,000 is only my limit because, in the first place, I'm not even a TNT fan. Cheesy There would be no other bettors for other teams as SMB is always the favorite to win the All-Filipino Cup Champion, especially JMF is now turning into a beast again after a long period of recovering.

Anyways, I've now listed you making the SMB slots FULL.

Bet: Php 5,000 max bet/team | Winner Take All

Talk N Text - harizen (Php 5,000) - FULL
Magnolia -
San Miguel Beermen -jakelyson (Php 1,000) , bisdak40 (Php 2,000) , Sanitough (Php 2,000) - FULL
Meralco Bolts -
1655  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Man Collapses after Allegedly Losing a $400 Loan at a Betting Shop on: August 06, 2022, 11:47:56 PM

Already happened and no choice but to move on. I'm sure that man has a stable job as he becomes eligible for the loan. What he needs to do now is to bear the situation and looked for an additional source of income to pay the loan even bit by bit. He took the risks, then pay for it.

I'm sure that man already knows that he might end up screwed but still he pushes for his desire to double the loan money. After that incident, I hope that man learned his lesson. Still lucky that he has a stable job as there's still a way for him to make money.

Good luck to that man and I hope he can get out of that problem.

Bear market is here but new NFT/Metaverse projects are raising millions of funds, I think this is not bad news for the future of crypto and the next bull market might even be bigger than what we've seen before, what do you think? Are you excited for the future of crypto.

Can you give examples of these "NEW" NFT/Metaverse projects that raising millions of funds?

Since you used the term "raising" meaning just on progress and not actually they already raised millions?

Checking the Binance NFT page seems to me that there's no hype there.
1657  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Looking for best casino on: August 06, 2022, 11:38:35 PM
I also wanna know the which Cryptocurrency based casino is best for me ? Because I saw lots of casino here .

Being the best will depend on your own taste and preference.

I'm sure you already know how to browse the forum and know how to read a thread title. Scroll those threads in the Gambling section manually and check how the community is doing a good discussion on that thread. From there, you should now see if that casino is worth trying by reading all the responses there.

On what to choose, it's now up to you. Again, read some replies on that specific thread first then decide. To sort out your selections, you can try Stake.com which you can see on my signature. Not being biased but they have already established a good name in crypto-gambling.

Can anyone tell me which token should I use for my investment which will give me profit in a short time as I am investing for the first time?

Profit will depend on your actions. Since you want to expect a short-term profit, then you have to be active in day trading.

Which token? That was a tough question. Even though we named some here, we don't have different types of approaches regarding our investment. We might be successful in dealing with a specific coin but it doesn't mean we will have the same result.

For me, just stick to a single coin for the moment until you are used to testing the waters. You can start with bitcoin and start learning how trading works.
1659  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Crawford vs Spence on: August 05, 2022, 03:21:49 PM

Even some sports-related websites are concerned if we will see Crawford and Spence bout this year, 2022.

Will we actually see Terence Crawford vs Errol Spence Jr in 2022?

Boxing history is littered with fights that happened too late, but this one is now or never

They have much more legit sources and known insiders compared to all of us here obviously. If they are not also sure since they don't receive any updates then maybe there are really no actions currently taking place now and both sides are just on waiting game status.

This is alarming if we don't hear something good this month up to next month. But again, patience.

Lakas sana nila noong OKC days ano? Durant, Harden, WB, at prime Ibaka. Kaso prang puro may problema sa team chemistry yung tatlo.

Na-choke e. They blew their 3-1 lead against sa 73-9 Golden State Warriors. Laking recognition sana kung natalo nila Warriors that time. Baka nga may chance pa sila matalo Cleveland Cavaliers nun sa Finals since na 3-1 din ito ng GSW that time, pero ang Warriors naman ang na-choked hehe.

One more season kung nag-stay pa si Durant, puwede pa sana e. Throughout the playoffs series nila against sa Warriors ng taon na yan, nakikisama naman si Westbrook at maraming plays na dinisensyo sa isolation ni Durant. Sayang nga naman ang pagkakataon kaya lumipat na lang ng Warriors na sobrang dominante na. at di naman talaga sya kailangan.

Warriors din naman kasi ang lumapit sa kanya kasi free agent si Durant nun. Kung tutuusin ang baba nga ng offer pero championship team to e.
