Surely, my list isn’t complete. You can always add a comment and present more facts.
There's one you didn't add about what people are doing with bitcoins asides just hodling, people who gamble online on casinos that do no have a direct funding option via their fiat bank account, fund their account via crypto using their bitcoins to fund their online casino accounts so they can continue gambling there.
That's also possible as bitcoin can be used to finance in casinos and change it to fiat. But if you're into crypto gambling then there's no need to convert it to fiat. However, bitcoin can be a good retirement gift since its value will definitely grow in time. Or bitcoin can be used simply as an investment for long term hodling since that will also ensure large profits ahead.

Sanitough (Php 2,000)

Thanks mate, until next conference, let's do the same competition.

Congrats to my fellow winners as well, it was a great series, we are lucky SMB won.

@harizen, sending you a DM.

I can't believe the spread in game 7, this is very interesting because TNT is now +4.5, and 2.45 for moneyline.

Anyone, what do you think about the odds, for sure TNT backers would think that the handicap is very attractive.
Also, how about Castro, do we have a confirmation whether he will play or pass tomorrow?

Typically bookmaker base there odds on previous match of the same team on this case was game 6 which SMB was ahead by 18 points at the end of the game. This is a very huge gap and there’s a chance that SMB can repeat due to momentum. The odds is really good if you are a solid TnT fan because you can support your team with a high odds on your bet.

And also Castro questionable might be one of the huge factor on why the ML for TnT increase the odds. I think he will play on the last game since he already expressed his willingness to play on game 7 base on his yesterday interview. This is just a 1 game away to championship tho.

Castro being questionable should be the factor why the handicap for TNT is high. however, TNT cannot be underestimated, they are a great team and even without Castro, I think they will be able to give a good game because they also wants to win. TNT needs to play together, just like what they did in game 5.

TNT players are very tough they can win this series for sure. But only thing I doubt and have questions in my mind during the game 6 of this series I think there's a reason why only RR pugoy can take a lot of shot even mikey willams and kelly willams did not have a good score which we all know that only 1 win they are the champion in all Filipino cup 2022 and don't know the reason why they are not making any noise in game 6.


The only reason is they are defended well, like always Mikey Williams is too inconsistent in the series so far.

For Kelly Williams he was defended well, probably got tired after a good performance in game 5, and of course, the other big man Erram who are in foul trouble and got fouled out in the game.

Another thing, they got outrebounded by SMB, 52-42.
1765  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Fernando Martinez vs Jerwin Ancajas rematch - Oct.8 on: September 03, 2022, 12:07:29 PM
I think it is the use of sauna that ban him from fighting and due to that, he was unable to defend his title twice which resulted in him being stripped of the title.

The bottom line is, that Casimero is having a weight problem issue that leads him to use the sauna. Aside from that, his camp was unaware of that policy under British Boxing Council. If only they are responsible, Casimero should be the one facing Inoue now. Don't want to happen the same situation with Jerwin Ancajas.

Back to topic, and as I previously posted here, Ancajas camp admits that they overtrained Jerwin just to meet the required weight.

That's why to solve that, they will cut Ancajas' training volume as one of the options to make him perfectly in good condition on the day of the fight.

So it's really on the burden of the trainer of Jerwin, he needs to ensure that he won't overtrain and will just be in the peak condition right before the fight itself. Maybe they think that having training volumes will cut his weight, but I don't think that is a good idea.

Again, they've seen their mistakes and saw how Martinez fights. This will be enough for them to make the necessary adjustment in weight, training volume and strategy so that Jerwin can get his belt back and then aim for Ioka in the future for unification.

It's not a burden, it's his job and he is paid to do the job. They hire a capable one, so 90% of the time, they will achieve the desired result. Ancajas is trying to become a champion again, it's his only chance in this division, so he should make sure he will get a win and be reading for a possible trilogy.

Exactly, they have enough time to prepare for this fight, so there's no more excuse for them if Ancajas loses again. I'm with Ancajas for revenge, but we cannot deny how strong Fernando Martinez is, so if the camp of Ancajas is not going to work hard, their chance is not going to increase.

How about the odds, when are we going to see it?

1767  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Crawford vs Spence on: September 02, 2022, 07:04:06 PM
True, for the fans, its seems that Spence is stalling the fight, he even had a back up plan already to move to 154 lbs and face his buddy Charlo for 154 lbs. And he keeps saying that he doesn't need Crawford because his legacy has been cemented already but for us boxing fans it's not that case. You have to face the best in your division and see how is the best. So it will be a big question in his legacy if he is not going to face Crawford at 147 lbs and for the unification.

Spence is a coward, he does not fight the best to keep is undefeated record. He could have fought Pacman but cancel the fight to get an eye operation, and beat Ugas easily. For me, I now respect Crawford than Spence because he doesn't want to take risk and stake his undefeated record for this unification fight.

I understand your frustrations mate but there are a few details that you've said that I think you misunderstood like calling Spence a coward because he intentionally avoided a fight versus Manny Pacquiao last year and replaced by Ugas instead of him. There's a reason why Spence didn't fight Pacquiao and you mentioned it already why, I mean do you really expect him to fight even if his other eye is still in a healing process? Spence's doctor said that it will be critical for him if he pursues the fight because it will lead him to blindness as he can't really avoid getting punched in his eye.

For now, let's just wait for some final announcements as I heard that they are already nearing the end of their discussion and just prepping the undercard fights to maximize the revenue.
1768  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: September 02, 2022, 06:31:37 PM
Jake Paul has announced his next opponent is Anderson Silva. I think Jake might have but off a little more than he can chew this time. Sure, Silva is damn near 50 years old, but he’s got power that Jake hasn’t seen before. I like this fight. I’d rather have seen him fight Andrew Tate, but this was unexpected and a nice surprise.

looking at the two fighters I strongly believe that anderson silva will be victorious in this fight, that's because anderson silva had some boxing matches against strong opponents and he had a good performance, not to mention that the guy is an experienced MMA fighter, of course in boxing he can still be an amateur, but the fact that he fought in mma gives him some advantage over being more aggressive, being a person with good reflexes and knowing several fights, on the other hand we have Jake Paul who, despite being a young with some fights and victories against fighters who are also strong he is still young and doesn't have the fighting experience that anderson silva has. That's why for me anderson silva wins this fight, Jake Paul will definitely come out of this fight sad

I think Jake Paul has experienced fighting people in MMA and this is not the first time he is fighting one.  According to the record, he had a match against a former MMA fighter and won a 1st round TKO, and a former UFC champion twice winning with a split decision.  But thinking that the two previous opponent styles are wrestling, Jake Paul might probably have trouble facing Silva since Silva's fighting style includes boxing.  But one thing is hindering Silva in this fight, and that is his age. Fighting at 47 would take a toll for sure.  If I disregard the age factor, I would agree with you.

Yes, and if I'm not mistaken, either of the brothers have boxing experience so they can really fight those UFC fighters and win. But as you have said, Silva is well rounded, including a stand up boxing style.

But the age though, maybe once Paul touches that chin of Silva, he will go down. He is not known to have a good chin, maybe he can protect it. However, one punch can change the complexion of the fight.

That is probably one of the reasons why they are so confident about taking a fight against UFC fighters, they already have some idea of how to deal with these fighters because of that experience they acquired. Anyway let's go back to the fight, Anderson Silva can protect his chin well and other weaknesses but that's in the old times when is still fast to react and quite agile to counter the movements. But now? He will be an open book to Jake Paul, no doubt.
1769  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Dmitry Bivol vs Zurdo Ramirez on: September 02, 2022, 06:11:09 PM
I'm having a second thought at first on whom to bet for because for me this fight is a bit complicated to predict but with Bivol having a rematch with Canelo after this one, I will be backing the Russian as I also want him to fight Canelo next and see it that win last May was a fluke or not.
Same here im rooting for Bivol to win because I'd like to see him again to have a rematch with Canelo (if ever it will be push through). However it is hard to predict whose gonna win in this fight because Ramirez is also a beast. They're actually a perfect match since both are undefeated. Its a challenge for Bvol because Ramirez is taller than him and has more experience. So lets see if his hands speed will work as his advantage. Nevertheless this is a great fight to look forward.

A good challenge and an exciting event that we will see, Bivol have that favorite after beating Alvarez, but now he's facing a new challenger

who can match up with him both with speed and strong punches, we will him now adjusting since the height and reach edge is in Ramirez favor

and the man is also undefeated, which means that he also has good experience facing any type of fighter. We will see what adjustment

and what new fighting style for both sides.

The light-heavyweight division has been quite noisy this year as they have some interesting fights that are taking place and probably an undisputed fight in this division is the next attraction too because the winner of this fight will face Artur Beterbiev next.

I've looked into Zurdo's rapsheet and I can't help myself to be impressed as I found out that he used to fight in super middleweight and cruiserweight respectively before he stayed here in light-heavy. This fight is truly an interesting sight to see this coming November, I expect that every round will be full of explosive punches.
1770  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Canelo vs Golovkin 3 - September 17 on: September 02, 2022, 05:38:38 PM
I only hope that this fight does not go to the technical part, but that both boxers come out explosive, that nothing is saved, besides this fight has been sought and requested for a long time, many things were done so that this fight give, now with all these speculations I don't want the fans to be biased by a single boxer, for now the most important thing is to see every detail of the boxers, the interviews, everything possible, I have also seen that many are going to support GGG , and that seems good to me, before this fight these boxers had encounters that did not go very well for them, however, despite that, this fight will take place.

I am not sure about which boxer enjoys a greater amount of support. I assume that within the United States (especially among the Hispanic population) Canelo enjoys a greater support. Among the global audience, Golovkin maybe ahead. The odds for Golovkin have remained the same for the last several months. This makes me wonder about his support level. Given how attractive the odds are, a lot of people would have placed a bet for him. But that is simply not happening. I guess fans are being held back due to concerns related to his age.

We cannot really blame them if that's what they are thinking because they have also a point, given Golovkin's age, we cannot anymore set a high standard on him as he is not that anymore durable and hard to crack because of the wear and tear he experienced throughout his whole career.

On the support side, they sure support Golovkin and that includes me but if we are talking about betting then it's really hard to go against the current Canelo vs aging Golovkin. Don't get me wrong, I'm not making a big issue about his age here but that's the reality.

1771  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: September 02, 2022, 05:20:46 PM
Westbrook absorb so many bashing last season so he need to train more so that he can prove his basher that he's still the beast and can provide triple double which he was known for.

He can train hard but to average a triple-double again, that's not gonna happen with the LA Lakers because he is not anymore the main man, he can only achieve that again if he will be the main man in a team as he can dictate his teammates to do his stat padding activity.

Yes provably it is because for sure the ball will be on the hands of Lebron or AD but even though he cannot more touches still he can be explosive on rebounding and assist which he mostly do on his past teams, so for sure if he can do more of it for sure he can gain back the trust of Lakers fans. But I do believe westbrook can go with it as consistency still the key for a team and they need that compare to a injury prone player.

Not probably because Lebron and AD is the main man for the team and they are the ones who usually drive the ball while Westbrook's job is to support the duo. Averaging a triple-double is hard to attain if that's your situation but yes you are right, he can still be explosive in his role but as we saw, he is not that well enough to do those things.
1772  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: September 01, 2022, 02:04:01 PM

SMB defense needs to adjust. I'm looking for Cruz and Ross to play longer minutes together. They just need more conversions unlike what happens last game 5.


Exactly, they should play more minutes as they can play both defense and offense. CJ has to be efficient as well, he cannot repeat the same game he had in game 5, and we know that JMF can contribute a double double production, but without the supporting cast, SMB might likely to lose.

Perez only had 13 points, and worse is Ross with 2 points and Cruz with 6 points.

Those numbers have to improve in a do or die time, Ross is a great offensive player, but he cannot just focus on defense, he also needs to help on the offensive so the Burden of Fajardo will be lessened.

Manuel also had 1 point, which cannot happen again.

1773  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Vasiliy Lomachenko vs Jamaine Ortiz - October on: September 01, 2022, 11:47:33 AM

That proves why Loma is not an average fighter who can be bullied right away if his foe has the height and reach advantages, fighting Loma without proper training regimen is like fighting blindly in the ring because he can really get you where you won't expect it the most as his IQ is so vast in this sport.

I also agree that this fight might end by a way of TKO/KO in Lomachenko's favor, he will do that as a sign of his comeback.

He will aim for a KO to bring his name up and be a talked around social media, that's a good exposure since he's coming back and chase for another belt or another money fight. I see that point where he will bring his opponent to the position where he wanted, then drive him to keep countering, then a killer solid knockout punch will be thrown.

The IQ of Loma will again rise and fans will call for him to have a rematch or take another solid fighter like him.

the focus might be on this upcoming fight, the rest will be discussed after!

For sure it's great news if he wins by KO. I would not be surprised if I will see a KO here as we all know that Loma is capable of knocking his opponent, he will slowly destroy his opponent that's how technical he is, so I'm really looking forward to that.

I'm excited on the result of this fight and the next fight of Loma.

It’s really great to see that Bitcoins are way ahead of Banks.
Thanks to Satoshi for which we are enjoying these awesome features and are having full access to our money.
Earlier also I used to hate banks, due to taxes and ample of laws. Banks are always abided by the government and follows it’s order like a dog, on the other hand due to the decentralised nature of Bitcoins, no government can ever find out how much BTC I have.
BTC will always be ahead of banks and also after a later period of time, the comparison won’t exist.
Satoshi knows the sentiments of the people and so he invented bitcoin because this will be the answer to all people’s complaints about banks taking advantage of our money and yet, the depositors only receive low compensation. With the existence of bitcoin, there is no need to trust banks anymore because our own wallet can turned into our most reliable bank. Also, we can fully control and manage our finances without banks and governments interrupting in it.

1778  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Resisting the below twenty thousand level on: August 31, 2022, 09:30:33 PM
A lot of speculation has been ditched out in the last 48 hours since Bitcoin battled to retain the 20 thousand dollars price even though some expect has predicted a more bearish market in the next month, and some others are of the view that the 20 thousand dollars price is the bearest minimum Bitcoin could fall back to.

At the moment Bitcoin is at a decisive level to either level up or pull back below the 20k dollars level, in the next coming day Bitcoin price will witnesses a lot of volatility we should be prepared for that and make a lot of speculation that can help analyze the market and it grows.
No one can be right when it comes to an uncertain market because all we have are just predictions and there are no guarantees if it will be possible or not. However, knowing the fact that bitcoin is so volatile, its value might have further drops or might be moving upward and skyrocket. But as long as this bear market stays in the market, expect that bitcoin will have a hard time reaching significant value.
1779  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Random tips for beginners/newbies. on: August 31, 2022, 09:15:11 PM
Newbies should know more about bitcoin, it may not be beyond having bitcoin and having experience of how bitcoin is working just in term of transaction.

Newbies that want to ranking more should focus on the posts of members that have ranked up already.

-Develop consistency; as a new forum member it is expected that you post regularly say even one post a day and slowly build up the number from there. Posting occasionally like this week and then nobody sees you for like 2 weeks and then you come back in 3 weeks time doesn't speak well of you.
A newbie may create an account to ask a question. A newbie or anyone, even a well ranked and known member can decide not to be active again on this forum. We have seen some ranked members that left this forum which could be because of a reason, newbies can do that too at anytime too.

What I am saying is that newbies also do not have to post regularly, newbies may be here to gain knowledge and not want to participate in a signature campaign.
Newbies should be gaining insights and knowledge at first so they will be able to create quality posts because that will determine if they can be a good and reliable poster in the end. However, being an active in the forum and post at least once or twice a day can hone their skills in posting, it happened to me so most likely it’s also possible for most newbies too.
1780  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can this be the reason some people are afraid to invest in Bitcon? on: August 31, 2022, 08:58:23 PM
There is no one reason why people are afraid to invest in bitcoin, they can be scared away with what they read in the news, their age, or what their friends tell them, they can also be afraid to invest in bitcoin because they lost their funds, or someone they know lost theirs, so many more reasons are possible.

But it goes without saying that all of those reasons are a fault of the individual and not bitcoin itself, which is a network that is almost perfect, so for people who aren't afraid and are part of the network, they have nothing to worry about so long as they have the knowledge, and know what to do to avoid loss.

E.G: If i buy bitcoin today, and i keep it in the wallet of any exchange, if that exchange is hacked tomorrow and i lose everything, i should learn from it and be afraid of centralized exchanges and not bitcoin.
The only reason why a single person becomes afraid of investing because he lacks the knowledge and skills, and he is afraid to take the risks. He is afraid of losses so most likely investing in bitcoin would be out in the picture. However, not all people have the same behaviors towards bitcoin. Some are eager to take the risks because it’s the only way that they can make huge profits in the end. Although there will be inevitable losses at first but it will be overcome in the later part.
