Wow, i never thought that Ginebra would advance to the semis by defeating the TNT Katropa twice and it was not even a close game.
Scottie Thompson as usual did the damage for the Kings with his hustle and rebounding prowess hehe.
Congrats to all who back the Gin Kings to win and advance to the semis and hopefully to the Finals, seems like the PBA office is smiling at the moment as they expect gate revenues to skyrockets when the semis began.
I was expecting it, after they win in game 1, I am already convinced that the Ginebra Kings have a huge chance of winning the championship again. Also, bad decision for the TNT for changing their import in the do or die game, there's no chemistry been created yet so you cannot expect them to win. s I agree that it was a wrong decision, their import cannot be effective in just a short period of time. In game 1, it was a bit close unlike the game 2 where the Gin Kings clearly dominated them. That was obviously based on the outcome of the game, Brownlee cannot be contained, he is really good and he makes his teammates better. Their import only scored 14 points while Brownlee had 29 points.
Too big of a difference, If import would score lower than the local, that means trouble for the team, unless everyone was really doing a great job, in the side of the TNT, they are not.
Meanwhile, looks like NLEX is going to advance in the Semi too, after a bad game, they bounce back hard and now having comfortable lead which I think they'll take it until the of the game. 50-69, NLEX. |

The demand is not that huge, so for me, there's no data that would back up on why the price now is undervalued. Most of the reasons on why bitcoin achieved its ATH was only due to hype, because if that is not due to hype, bitcoin could have not corrected this big now, from almost $70k and have dropped below $40k, that's a huge correction, right?
However, if we look at the big picture, bitcoin is pretty bullish of the low supply and continuously increasing of demand, and all I can say is that the current price is still cheap if we believe that massive adoption is waiting in the future.

I guess bitcoin will only be limited on its adoption, it cannot compete with fiat as some countries are planning, or maybe some already issued their CBDC which is way faster compared to crypto transactions, and probably less fee or no fee at all.
Crypto's edge is only the decentralization, therefore its adoption will be pretty limited only as not everyone needs that, unlike fiat where we use it on a daily basis, whether you are an investor or not.

OP hasn't logged in for almost so not sure if he is still following this thread and reading our suggestions!
That's almost a month, this thread would be better if we have an active OP. so now, I have a feeling that OP is not part of the team or the company, or they just have a very poor marketing strategy. Some company take their time seriously in the forum as they know how big the market is, and I still believe in first impression last, so not good for the business. |

Tomorrow lets watch the do-or-die games between TNT-GSM and NLEX-Alaska. Still, I will go with TNT with this one and maybe Alaska will take this one as well  . I thought the game between GSM and TNT is on Sunday. Anyways, it's a double header tomorrow, TNT vs GSM will be the main attraction while Aces vs NLEX will be the 2nd attraction. I think they should change the time schedule, TNT vs GSM should be @06:30 PM instead of the other game. |

Well, It's also a smart idea to not become blind just to win some prize. Don't fall for it. It's better to play normally and focus on your game. Sometimes I have wagered too much and lost much as well. But didn't win anything at the end of the day or win some small amount which is 20x less than my loss bet. For example, the First prize is 0.01 BTC, I have wagered 2 BTC and lost about 0.02 BTC. Even if I win the first prize, Still I will be at loss. So playing your normal game is the best idea.
Well, it always depends, what if there's a winning streak on your bet? We won't know much about what we could get in a day for what we wager but if you keep on tracking for example on a sheet you'll know what to do in the next bet day. Always keep it in mind that in gambling, losing is always expected. Losing and winning is just part of the game, we need to be open on both outcome. However, there is a saying that you need to seize the moment, if you are lucky continue gambling and win it all, but don't get too greedy. |

I tried to go to their social networks using the shortcuts on the homepage and they all bring me back to the homepage again bustabitwin.com but already on the new browser tabs, yes, this is a rather strange attitude towards users, I have no confidence in this site.
Same experience, it looks like the site is not fully functional yet because even the social media accounts have no proper links. With the UI and the design of the site, my impression is that it's poorly done, so I have no trust in this site yet. |

Just play normally without any hassle on mind and bet only small amount which yoh can afford to lose then let the luck dictates if you became lucky at that day.
That's the basic, gamble on what you can afford only. The bonuses or competition that certain gambling sites are offering could really attract gamblers, but in the first place, if we are responsible, it should not result to regret even if we lose money. Gambling is fun, it's something that we have to enjoy regardless of the outcome, and remember that if you are lucky and you win, consider that a bonus, don't think that you can do it every day as it's very risky for you. |

And you can also imagine if Kyrie would have played, it could be very different outcome as they have been in a streak prior to this lost. Mavs climbing into 5 position now in the West with their 3 straight win.
Of course, this would be different without Irving but he choose to stay unvaccinated and now the team are paying for the price. Maybe a bit different but it does not guarantee that the Nets will win because as you said, Luka was hot and actually the Mavericks have been winning games recently. |

Most of the feedback that I'm seeing on this page talks about the lack of promotions of the platform. I agree that it might hurt on the advertising side of things, but if Thunderpick offers good lines and odds consistently, people will naturally come. Some bookies give out lots of promotions to attract bettors but they lack severely in customer service, speed of withdrawals, and grading the bet. But if Thunderpick offer those 3 things better than other platforms, they will gradually build people that will bet on the site.
I think promotions are good, especially on big titles. This is where Thunderpick should focus, and they would grow solidly so long as they don't neglect the qualities wherein they excel while others do not.
I think for now what you are suggesting is a must in every gambling site, the competition is tough, one site has to compete better in order to operate profitably. One thing I see is that they differ on competition but once they attract gamblers, it also boils down to the users' experience. In fact, the most popular casinos here in the forum have lots of promotions and it starts with being active in their ANN thread. |

Just look at the casino threads. There are many casinos with deposit bonus, the main goal is to have an opportunity to withdraw your money without problems and fair gambling. So in these threads you can find a lot of information and feedbacks about these casinos and after this research make your own choice.
Of course, you can find a lot of casinos like that as that's one of the most popular marketing strategies, but please OP, focus on the most important thing in choosing a casino, go with the reputation first than the bonuses they are offering. you know what will happen if you choose the wrong casino. |

^^ Spence should really be careful and not to take Ugas lightly because who knows, ring rust might affect Spence here and it might be too late before he can recover from that as Ugas might piled in points early on him. So still one month to go before the fight, just enough for them to really unwind their training for this big fight. Boxing media has started to pick up as well with Spence interviews here and there.
For sure there are some ring rust, but knowing how good Spence is, it should not be a big disadvantage for him because he already did that in the past when he met a car accident, came back, and beat Shawn Porter. IMO, Shawn Porter is even better than Ugas based on their previous fight. I believe this will only happen if the fighter is out of his prime but since Spence still on his best shape then provably he will make the life of Ugas hard on this fight. But I don't agree on what he is doing now by thinking his next opponent since its like he's downplaying this fight and think about he can defeat Ugas on this match. Maybe he need to stay focus on the fight and forget other things so that he can make sure that he is on his best shape on their fight night. In some sense, it's just showing his confidence or he just trying to be inspired, thinking that the next fight is bigger than this one. If he beats Ugas, the next one to accomplish is Crawford, and that might really be a good inspiration to think ahead, but likewise focusing first on this upcoming fight is needed. We never know what preparation Ugas is undergoing by now to be more prepared once the fight takes place. Beating Ugas is not a problem for Spence, however, fighting Crawford is a different story as these fighters have not reached an agreement that they will fight despite the fact that they can unify and could make a lot of money for the big fight. Seems like one is challenging but the other is a dodging a fighter, don't know who is telling the truth, so I would just watch and not speculate too much of this happening. |

Welcome, very nice site, the UI is good, I feel like I'm just clicking some desktop files because the response time is very fast.
Like it, hopefully, you'll be able to gain attention from the community so you'll also build a name here.
I have not read all the early posts but maybe you can start with a signature campaign to spread awareness in the forum.

So, if I want to deposit to betfury, there is nothing wrong with putting up my bitcoin to trading and get busd and then send that to metamask and doing it that way, easy as that. However, I do support anyone who wants to wager with anything of course, I just wanted to say my favourite method.
Personally, I got used to a conventional way, like a gambling site providing an address to send my deposit with and then do gamble with the bitcoin once it arrives. I am not using ETH anymore due to the high transaction fee but I see in my favorite bookie that metamask is already integrated but I have not tried it yet. |

~ What team do you think will advance in the semi-finals? I have Magnoli vs SMB and NLEX vs Ginebra. And I have the Ginebra to be the Champion. Magnolia have a higher chance of winning this time but still, I will pick SMB as the champions this time not only because I'm a fan of them but I believe that they can still win a championship with their current roster right now especially now that they have an import which is a scoring machine in Shabazz. Same here, Picking the SMB to win as they have a quality import who can carry the team. This import is an NBA player, he is still good and he even scored 57 points, so I don't have doubt anymore on Shabazz. I don't want to disregard Ginebra though and still they have a chance on winning it but it will be hard for them to win a championship especially if Pringle isn't playing. Imports of both NLEX and Alaska has changed so I don't know which team will I pick between the 2 but for the 3 match-ups, I'll pick Magnolia, SMB and TNT . That's a big problem for NLEX because we might see some issue with chemistry due to the change of import, and we have no idea how good the new import is, if he is as good or even better than McDaniels, then for sure the series will be interesting.
By the way, the odds are out. NLE vs Alaska +2.5 TNT vs Ginebra +2.5 https://sportsbet.io/sports/basketball/philippines/pba-governors-cup/matches |

GGG's age can be his disadvantage but we know what he's capable to do and IMO, except Mayweather, GGG is the only boxer that could possibly pull an upset to Canelo.
That's not a problem because Murata is not a type of fighter that would give GGG trouble, in fact, I believe that it will be the other way around and bookies already know that as evidenced by the betting odds of this fight. https://www.gamblingsites.org/news/has-date-change-affected-odds-golovkin-vs-murata/Golovkin is listed as the -700 favorite in this fight
That's how heavy favorites he is. |

Durant and Irving are known for being a fragile player during playoffs since they are doing overwork just to qualify on the next round. Heat or Bucks is hardcore team for them to beat on a best of 7 match. GL with that.
Let's hope that Durant or Irving will not be injured so the Nets will not anymore suffer the same faith they had last season. When Irving was still active, they were dominating the Bucks which they have a good 2-0 start in the series, but when Irving went down, things have changed as the Bucks were able to catch up but Durant still bring the series to game 7 despite the fact that Harden was more like a liability that time. For me, as long as no injury would happen to the Nets, they could go all the way to the Finals. |

Drake is a match for stake, not only his name is rhymed to the company but he has the addiction to gambling. He is known for he's massive amount of bets, throwing money into it. I don't know if it just a rich kind of attitude, most of them are, throwing money like it is unlimited, while I am having goosebumps when betting more than a hundred dollars That was a good rhyme about Stake and Drake  , i did not notice that rhyming and it is a public knowledge that Drake is an avid gambler and he will place bets above one hundred thousand to half a million bets and one of the bets that became public, he really won that bet and the loss was the UFC bet he made recently in the Jorge Masvidal v Colby Covington fight and he went with the underdog and he lost around quarter of a million. Huge money if we based on our status, but Drake being a millionaire is probably just gambling based on the amount that he can afford to lose. The fact that he is a known gambler and until now he has not declared bankruptcy yet, then we can assume that he is making money in gambling or just gambling for fun. |

Tomorrow we have Phoenix vs Northport, the winner will qualify in the quarter-finals but on a twice-to-beat disadvantage.
I'm still waiting for the odds to be available, but don't forget that the game will start at 6:30 PM tomorrow.
My initial thoughts, I will be betting on the under as it might be a defensive game, and going on the underdog.
Hoping that NP will be the underdog.
Odds are available at Stake: https://stake.com/sports/basketball/philippines/pba-governors-cup/42546760-phoenix-fuel-masters-batang-pierMoneyline:Phoenix @ 1.93 NorthPorth @ 1.78 Based on the odds given on Moneyline, bookies consider the game as close to being equal. The previous performance of NorthPort against the TNT overtime win a few days ago might play a role on these provided odds. Pre-betting on handicap is also a tough choice as the line is so close. Maybe I will wait again on a Live Betting. Thanks, I was checking on the other sportsbook, they don't have early betting odds but at least now I have an idea on the betting odds. Unfortunately, NP is not the underdog, so I might not bet on them unless I will bet on live betting. For me, it's a tough choice especially in big games like this, so I would go for a pre game betting and enjoy the game with no worries.
We have our own preference, let's do what we are comfortable of. |

Do you really believe in sanctions? Tell me how change the politics in North Korea or Iran? They are much smaller then Russia but i don`t see how their leaders cry and change politics. And when we are talking about North Korea - this country has no any resources and no possibilities to make problems to USA or EU but sanctions does not work even with such small country. Why do you think they will work with Russia?
Yes I believe that sanctions work. Sanctions are put in place to hurt the economy of a country. We could see the effect after USA announced the sanctions on Russia, the Rubel dropped 30% instantly. I am sure that if there were no sanctions on Iran or North Korea than their economy would be much stronger today. Just compare south and north Korea, one a free market capitalist country, the other one a closed of country. Sanctions prohibit companies to do business freely, there will also be a cost for the country that issues the sanctions. The question is however, if the sanctions are helpful in changing the course of a country, or if they make things worse. In theory international sanctions reduce the economy, which in return should make its population unhappy to create pressure on the politicians to change their course. For some sanctions is this true, but if the sanctions become to severe it will create anger and resentment towards the foreign country. In Russia a few people decide the fate of the country, but with the sanctions all the people are hurting. The sanction would hurt the economy but if Russia had allied countries who can provide what they need, it shouldn't be a big problem. And besides, Russia before their action is surely studying the possible result already and because they did this, I would like to think that they are so ready with the outcome or whatever sanction they may have. In the end, it's all about how the allies would help them as for sure those who help will also be sanctioned by big countries like the USA. Also, don't forget that USA is not as powerful as they were before, we have big countries now like China who are competing globally. |
