1881  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Teofimo Lopez vs Pedro Campa - Aug 13 on: July 24, 2022, 11:55:22 AM
I'll just go with the higher reward  Grin and it isn't bad as a bet since Campa has a good record even though someone is saying he only fights B-grade boxers but an upset win is real  Grin.  I think this odds will readjust so better put a bet while it is up.

Same here, high reward that could go up to 10+ boosting your odds, I think Campa could pull an upset. Lopez coming from a loss, maybe that would still affect him in this fight and he might struggle again. Watching his fight highlights (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DYpUKfIY0hA), this guy could really box and he is very aggressive.

^^ I guess it's just a question of Booker's mentality though, I rated him above Tatum couple of years ago, but right now, it seems that Tatum is more clutch than him specially with the way their series with Dallas turns out.

So let's see if he can go back next season with a lot of pride and prove something in return. He is still in his prime, can average 25 ppg++ and be on the top of the scoring list. He just need to be consistent and have that Black Mamba mentality.

He is not a superstar like Kobe and Lebron that can consistently make buckets even if the defense is focused on them, Booker is more of a shooter, if he gets hot that's where he keeps going, but if he gets pressure, he won't be so effective especially if he cannot get the help he wants from his teammates.

if you ask me, it was CP3 that are less consistent during the Dallas series and Booker was also affected by that.

If you ever have done these things,
 * research
 * market analysis
 * gathering investment ideas
 * mentorship ( not in social media)

I guess, you are already doing great and you know what project is good to invest in. You will just see the positive output of your hard work in the future.
Buy Bitcoin or potential altcoins, Hold, and sell high - that is pretty easy, right?

Teamwork is a must in the world of basketball and Magnolia have that and they used that as a weapon to claim the victory. We all know that Paul lee is very dangerous in terms of shooting outside and in paint area so the team find him. But Magnolia use that as a advantage they work as one every player contributed well scored well and in terms of defense they got gallon as a defender on the outside.

They had already formed a bond that would make them a very defensive team. look at the total score in their game today, they only limited the Blackwater to 66 points in the whole quarter, so you can really tell how effective their defense is, and they are not easily getting tired due to everyone being given minutes to play.
Magnolia has a very good line up now if their players don't have latest injury then it's good for them.
That's the advantage of a team if many players will be given time to play and their star players did not feel tired because their backups or let's say support will give their best also and have a good points and a good defense unlike another team that only their star players can make some points and that's the reason why they have a small percent of winning every game.
That's why I'm backing them to win in this conference, though all Filipino cup are usually dominated by SMB and Fajardo is obviously back, but I like the teamwork of Magnolia. Abueva was added and some role players, so they are getting better and better.
They are not the favorite to win the champion, it's only between SMB and BGSM, so you'll get more winnings by betting on Magnolia in every series. I wish we have a series betting here, it was proposed before but it never happened.

Panicking during the bear season is normal but if we have already seen how Bitcoin survived the previously bearish market and hit a good price during the bull run, we should trust its capability to resist this season again. I wonder why there are still people who are questioning Bitcoin's potential when in fact, it already reached lots of achievements and milestones.
those who still question the potential of bitcoin certainly do not understand how bitcoin works, how bitcoin can reach its current price. Even though it is clear that Bitcoin is the highest coin or the most valuable digital asset. Bitcoin returns for long term investments are incredible. A bear market has become a common event, behind a bear market will appear a bull market that is coming soon. So better hold your bag tight and don't let it loose, we're still going to the moon.
It is a question to those who think that Bitcoin is still a scam thing. I'm not going to wonder why many still have doubts despite the fact that Bitcoin has been tested many times already. It is actually our mindset differs from others, some people hold their Bitcoin because they believe and trust it while some people remain doubtful. This will imply that Holding is really hard for those who don't want to change their beliefs and minds but I don't bother myself to correct them because that was their opinion.

If you are in the look for an opportunity to start your crypto journey OP, I'd be supposed to tell you that this was the right time, if not but at least we take action while the market is in the bear season.

Actually, we don't need to know when it was the right time to invest, what is important for us is we start making an investment. We know that investing in Bitcoin will give us a profit in the future, that was the assurance if we know how to hold and manage our investment.
1887  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Haney vs Kambosos II (Undisputed) on: July 22, 2022, 01:55:29 PM
My vote is "Devin Haney Decision". I think everyone is voting on that outcome and there's no doubt that would happen. Kambasos has the power, but as long as Haney will not allow getting hit, then most likely the outcome will be the same as the previous match.

We have Phoniex vs Ginebra today.

I believe Wright is not available, so do you think that Phoenix will have a chance of winning this game, or at least cover the handicap?
This game will start soon, so guys, good luck!
I didn't watch the actual game, but based on the highlights, the offense was very fluid. Nice rotation and combination by coach Tim, I hope his 2nd unit always plays like that. Good to see that all the Ginebra players have improved. I hear that Wright is a free agent so and he may likely go to Ginebra because that's his favorite team. One more thing to mention is that the PBA should adopt the NBA court size especially the 3pt line.

That will make the Ginebra unbeatable, I think that is not fair for the superstars to go to one team, that will make the other team suffer as they have no chance of winning the championship. This league is obviously the league of MVP and Cojuangco, that's why sometimes it's boring to watch.
1889  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin back above $22K realized price on: July 21, 2022, 11:18:03 PM
Well, I don't see any huge changes happening in the market because since January and when the bear hits the market, this is the price we usually see, it pumps for a few days and it drops again. I couldn't find it was if that was a sort of manipulation or not, but we are probably aware of the situation already. This is literally what gonna happen this bearish time, we can never expect it will going to rally fast but instead, we expect more on declining moments rather than uptrend.

Yes, no Matthew Wright because he is out of the country, so it's a big task for the Phoenix to upset a good team like Ginebra. As expected, it's Ginebra who are taking the lead as they are dominating early, and since they are a good 2nd half team, I already expect that they will have a big win here.

It's not over yet, Ginebra though leading the game but it's just a single digit lead, if Phoenix will continue to challenge Ginebra, then it might end up a close game, possible outcome, Phoenix will upset Ginebra or lose but will cover the spread.
1891  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Crawford vs Spence on: July 21, 2022, 11:43:38 AM
Well for those who want to hear what Crawford says about this fight,

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-y2CufWpkw8

And I would say that I will be positive that this fight is going to happen sooner than we all think. By the way I read Spence expressions and body language, there have been talks in the background that he can't tell right now because they are still working on it.

Well, it's good that Terence Crawford calmly says that he is now number one and it is clear that he is determined to prove it in a fight with Errol Spence Jr and all this gives hope that this fight will take place soon.

I think there's no conflict that might stop their fight so for sure this big fight will really happen since both of them is eager to prove that they are the number one fighter on their generation. Also for sure many boxing fans love to see this to happen since we can still say that each fight of this fighter is worth to see since they give quality performance which can satisfy their fans.

We cannot be sure since the fight is not officially announced yet. The moment they will sign the contract, that's the time that we have to assume the fight is going to happen, if no contract, I'm afraid that we are just speculating.
1892  Economy / Speculation / Re: Do you regret buying before the dip on: July 18, 2022, 11:57:18 AM
I was but I also realize that it was not the best thing to do. We'd rather accept the reality that in this volatile market, we dare to be prepared for everything that may happen today, tomorrow, and in the coming days as no matter what we do, things remain unpredicted that is why we usually go wrong.

But I encourage everyone to not make ourselves down for just missing it as the drops can never be forever as long as we are holding Bitcoin and any value coins we still have the chance to sell them high and earn profit.
1893  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What is yours thought about SLP( Smooth Love Potion) ? on: July 18, 2022, 11:34:38 AM
I've been an Axie Infinity Manager for over a year, which allows me to hold a lot of SLP that I haven't even been able to sell because of its market value. However, due to a sharp market decline, the scholars are leaving, making the only asset that's generating a tiny profit for me is the AXS.

Sure there are a lot of updates and Jihoz even claimed that their game economy is healing [1], but I still don't think that SLP will recover anytime soon as there are still lots of economics changes that needs to be implemented.

[1] https://twitter.com/Jihoz_Axie/status/1545071504114827264?t=Yx_VRxyJtvpdWyCwHMX1tA&s=19
It feels hard seeing the market in decline and feeling of being disappointed about the market, about the coin we think could give us a lot but of a sudden, it drops drastically without having a chance to sell them and benefiting from them at least. However, being a crypto investor never think about giving up instead, we are still optimistic about the incoming. Not haven't a chance but I will be going to agree that it was not easy for the SLP to recover if the market decline continues. 
1894  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: July 18, 2022, 07:49:25 AM

One example is Ray Parks, IIRC, his reason for leaving the TNT is because he wants to take care of his sick mother, but look where he is now, he is already playing with the B League.

He was caught lying because of the picture circulating that he was in the Philippines at that time. He left TNT, not in good faith, so probably he will not be able to come back in the PBA again, he needs to play well so his contract in a team that he is playing with in B League will last longer.
1895  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Kazuto Ioka vs Donnie Nietes II on: July 18, 2022, 05:48:51 AM
He may think of retirement after this fight. He's not getting any younger so better enjoy his remaining years with his family.

That's not the case. It's been reported that Donnie Nietes wants to have another run in his career. I just don't know against whom since he's just lost his biggest title shot recently. I also like him to see him hanging his gloves but we can't control his desire to come back to the ring even though he is now considered old to do it. We need to respect his decision.

Maybe he needs another fight to confirm to himself if he still can win a fight. Well, we all like to see him retire but he is the one who will decide in the end, if he feels he still has left on him, then probably he will have another shot and try to win, but hopefully he will be convinced to retire if he fails again.

Investing without having knowledge could make us easily got fall into the wrong investment. Like choosing coins to invest, research is a must not because having someone suggest it we also have to invest as well not giving the time to check it and this is the reason why many people had to lose their money instead of multiplying it.

As for me, investing in altcoins isn't a bad idea as long as it can be trusted and much more it was legit and has a working product as this is the only way it gives us some assurance that it will grow.
1897  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Least promising project of those 5 on: July 17, 2022, 01:28:08 PM
How are we going to determine worse projects?
 * no used-case
 * questionable developers
 * not back-up with a reputable exchanges
 * no market volume

If one of them had fallen into such a category of mine, don't dare to invest and even have the plan too as for sure you will just lose your money. Choosing coins for investment really matter as this will affect the results of it.
1898  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Teofimo Lopez vs Pedro Campa - Aug 13 on: July 17, 2022, 11:35:13 AM

I agree the fight against Campa is a test for him if he can absorb heavy punches from 140 lbs, the same way if his power is effective enough to KO the regulars of that weight category. I believe this is a great test for Teofimo Lopez since Campa aged 30 is still in his prime.

But this isn't a real test, you can tell by the betting odds alone that Lopez is the heavy favorite, therefore we can assume that majority of the fans believe that Lopez will easily win the fight. he is not fighting a champion, so it's not a big deal if he win this fight, but if he will, he should be ready for a bigger challenge agains a champion.
1899  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: July 17, 2022, 11:14:18 AM
Meralco defeated SMB 89-86.

Great win by Meralco, I thought SMB would just dominate them but they played hard and upset the number 1 team.
SMB now is 9-2 but still number 1 in the standing, with this win, the ranking of Meralco has improved.

No matter what's the outcome of that game, SMB will remain at the top and the twice-to-beat advantage going into the quarters so I stay away from that game mate because of a fan of SMB, and in my mind, I have a feeling that they will lose and lose they did hehe.
Of course, they will have a twice-to-beat advantage and will enjoy that in the elimination.
I'm pretty sure they will win and will easily get to the 2nd round, but I'm not sure if they will still be a champion since we have Ginebra and TNT who are also a good contender.



About the issue with Matthew Wright, there are a lot of speculation going out on social media, some said he will be playing in Japan while I also read an article saying that he is open to playing back in the PBA but with a new team, championship team to be exact so I won't be surprised if he will be donning a TNT or SMB jersey when he is back playing in the PBA.

So what would happen to the salary cap? I believe Matthew Wright considers himself as a superstar so he would demand a high salary.
1900  Economy / Speculation / Re: How do we spot the crypto bottom? on: July 16, 2022, 10:50:43 PM
The market has not recover yet and crypto prices are still declining. Well, what can we expect from a bearish market than to see everything in the market falling apart. And assume that the whole market will even face future crashes if the bear market remains. But regardless how deep the market right now, still we can’t predict the bottom of this price declining. The crypto market remains unpredictable as it is.
Until now, we can't still say that we have already reached the bottom. It was still an assumption of being there as we are not really sure about the incoming. But, I'd rather keep being positive and never think about that thing as it won't help us instead it only drags us down. Buying during the dip is still a great idea and we have to keep that mindset rather than being bothered if there is a huge dump to come. Dealing with the current market condition is somewhat the best thing we can do, not this bottom.
