Well, next game, I like the TNT here, I missed the odds now, what is the point spread on this game.



TNT is the underdog, so you are getting a good odds with your bet.

Quote
I will just bet on live because it's not available anymore... by the way, I almost won my Blackwater 11+ bet, that was x10 odds.
This bet had a chance because Blackwater had a double digit lead but Blackwaer were not able to keep, they just did enough to win.

Good luck on the TNT bet though, they can win this game.

There's a rumor that Andrew Wiggins might be potential trade due to increasing salary wage of Warriors. They need to trade someone to resolve this and Wiggins has the high chance rate to be trade since Warriors will not gonna let go there Big 3. I don't know if this will commence but I believe this possible since Warriors has really have a high salary cap right now and this is not healthy to there franchise.
I won't be surprised if there will be an actual trade for him. He's now going to get the attention after they've taken the championship this final.
We don't know what it will be I guess this is an early expectation and we just have to wait for a few more weeks or a month to see such news like this.

Yup, rumors will circulate and with his performance this last season, interest to bring him in will flow.

It will depend on the Warriors team owner if how they will handle his case, if Wiggins will be after for the money, Max contract
or a good long-term deal should be on the table.

Unless he will be wanting for more rings, staying inside Warriors and adjust to the amount the team can offer him, just like how
Tim Duncan did when he still playing for the Spurs. He adjusts to meet the salary cap.

Warriors kept Durant, so there's a chance that they will keep Wiggins, though I must say that the Warriors were unbeatable with Durant playing on the team, Wiggins is also a big peace in the roster that makes the team successful. Well, the management will decide and for sure it will be for the improvemnet of the team.

The issue is getting hotter on social media since Elon Musk is a known person. It really get the attention of the public and the majority had already known this. But what gives me more exciting is to see how these Dogecoin holders think about it or decided to sell their coins at this time. I'm pretty sure this will create panic and worries for them, and most likely, this will help to dump their price even more.

This is the thing I've worried about, someone involved in a hype causing major losses to the investors will hold responsible for it and this is what it happen to Elon Muck. He does too much to Doge and takes all the blame, that's the consequence.

2004  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to avoid crippling losses when trading? on: June 17, 2022, 10:30:58 PM
Crypto trading is a unique thing, the opportunity to rise by thousands of percent in a day can be obtained, instead we can lose 99% in a day or even less, as happened with Luna only takes a week to drop from $ 100 to $ 0,0001, and in my opinion things What we can do is determine the target profit and target loss, what I do is immediately sell when profit is 10% and immediately sell when a loss is 15%.

That is why crypto trading is a high-risk activity, because highly volatile price movements are difficult to predict. So make sure before deciding
to trade crypto we already have sufficient knowledge and can analyze market movements well. In order to avoid trading in the wrong coins,
and also be able to use effective strategies to generate profits.
It can be riskier if we don't have knowledge and skill about this and I suggest those who come and try trading must invest their time knowing the market first and have some mentor to assist. I'm not going to say we should have to keep this person forever, it is just the days when we are in the learning process. In this way, we are able to understand how that trading works and simply guide us to a better choice of coins to trade and the basis of it. It can't be simply ( a different view to others) and that is why we need to take this seriously otherwise.

I think Curry can break the number of championships Jordan has won.

If remains healthy, he can do that for sure. Curry is only 34 years old, there are plenty of seasons to be played and he just needs to win 3 straight seasons so he can break the record of MJ, and of course, win the finals MVP as well so it would solidify his legacy.

Nice game between the SMB and Magnolia now. I  took the SMB when they were down and I got them on ML.

It's still a close game now, both teams are just trading baskets and it doesn't matter if it will end up a close game as long as SMB wins.  Grin
2007  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA Finals 2022 - Warriors vs Celtics. on: June 16, 2022, 09:41:13 PM
do you know what are score-line odds for Curry tonight?
Curry is over/under 29.5.

Look, bookies are still confident with that line despite of the poor performance of Curry in game 5, I think Curry will have a bounce back game and will again score at least 30 points. That line is quite very tempting, I might take it.

Hi dear I want to ask to you about crypto trading, what do you recommend if I have 1000 USD and want to grow it by crypto. How can I do it safely and low risk?
The bolded one can be depending on you on how you manage your actual trade. It can't be guaranteed that whatever we say will help you it is because you are the one doing this. And in the first place, trading is accompanied by risk and no profit assurance. But I think this is not the thing we put in mind, if we have a plan for doing this see to it that we are also positive and our mindset is focused on how to improve our trades rather than being destructed with negativity.

But I suggest starting with a small amount while familiarizing the market, like having $100 is good enough. You can top some if you can assess yourself that you are ready enough to handle the market and stress.
2009  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Cryptocurrency Huge Down from ATHs. what will happen the next ? on: June 13, 2022, 09:52:35 PM
Oh, I was wrong in saying that Bitcoin will never fall below $25k. I could say now that this is the real bear season that people are waiting for and some are getting afraid of. The sudden huge price dive may be because of the issue with the US banning Bitcoin mining and market inflation. It is how sad to see the huge impact of that thing causing panic selling.
Quote
“The crypto market has been under pressure from the Federal Reserve, hiking the interest rates to combat inflation over the past few months. Bitcoin, Ethereum, and most cryptocurrencies suffered losses over the weekend after a broad sell-off following the data showing US inflation hitting a 40-year high,” said  Edul Patel Co-Founder and CEO of crypto investment platform Mudrex.

Kinda be saying there is no perfect prediction, all of a sudden this makes it happen and everything has changed.
2010  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is it possible for Traditional Banks to cooperate with Crypto on: June 13, 2022, 09:27:29 PM
They're not OP instead, they will fight against the growth of crypto as they think this was a threat to them. Because the moment that crypto becomes legal, many will no longer use the banking system anymore. Of course, this never makes them die or the collapse of the banking system, however, this will cause a downtrend of their possible income.

Digitalization is a new trend now if we see, Banks have also upgraded their system to cope with the demand of digitalization. This is a way to a healthy compilation against cryptocurrencies.


2011  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: June 13, 2022, 01:42:02 PM
@YuginKadoya  Good choice.

I will most likely have 2 choices tonight. My first pick will be Golden State in the first quarter. (-0,5)
My second pick is Golden State wins in the first half. (-1,5)

Honestly, I'm not comfortable with this, I would rather pick Warriors to win 3rd quarter because that's their quarter. Although I believe that they will start strong at home, but the series has been very unpredictable and they have a very close competition in the 1st half, anyway, good luck to your bet.

As they say, follow the trend, well, that kind of strategy works as well but we also have to remember that Warriors are at home and they are playing well at home. We have our own choice, it's better if we really believe 100% before putting our bet so there will be no regret in the end.

Warriors is just a slight favorite, but I think they'll dominate most quarters.

They have not dominated all the quarters yet, in game 2, they dominated the Celtics but I believe that the Celtics won the 4th quarter trimming their lead to below 20 points after the game. In a game that is as crucial as game 5, I think both teams will play hard to win and take the lead in the series. I am more confident on betting the under now.
2012  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Ryan Garcia vs Javier Fortuna - July 19 on: June 13, 2022, 01:19:34 PM
I am going to support Ryan - I like his speed and his punching technique.
Unfortunate for him that he is struggling with mental health - I think he is talented and smart - he can focus on his fitness and can live his dreams

I like his confidence and boxing skills too, you cannot compare him to anyone because the guy is still young and have lots of room for improvement. After this fight, I hope he will have his time to shine against a worthy opponent as well. We also need to see him struggling in his practice to level up and beat his strong opponents. He needs to fight someone who is a threat to his current record so that he will gonna further stretch his kills to the max and upgrade his power and speed to outmatch his next opponents until he became an undisputed champion himself.
Despite of his issues on depression and mental health struggles, I can see that he is still ready to give Fortuna the best fight his opponent wanted. Seeing how Garcia fought in his previous games, I know this game will favor him. And yes, he all got confidence and boxing skills that i think will be more enhanced if he will be given opportunities to fight with most of the big time undefeated boxers, so that he can see himself too undefeated in his own chosen career.

If after that fight he take more serious trainings and deal with much heavier sparring sessions, I guess coming in this fight he will be more ready, he's trying to hype his name and the only thing that he needs to do is to win this fight and find a new challenger that will create more noise for his name. We don't know how things will come up, but everything will be settled once he steps inside the ring and showcase his skills, then wins against Fortuna.

Garcia's camp knows the big potential of him. They will bring him back to find the rhythm and try taking down Fortuna in a solid way

 of knocking him down..

Another easy challenger, but this time he needs to be more impressive if he wants to have a big fight with the champions that are waiting for him. They know that Garcia went through some mental and emotional problems, so they will see that as his weakness. Promoters are not convince yet, so they bring this another unknown guy just for Garcia to give a convincing win.
2013  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your NBA Champion this season? on: June 13, 2022, 12:51:01 PM
I don't like it because it means Warriors are losing game 5 and they will lose in the last game, it's not fun to watch.

You don't have to like it because the Warriors will not lose game 5, mark my words, I will bet my life savings for the Warriors in game 5 (KIDDING!). But seriously, this is the best spot to back the Warriors as they are back home and their chance to win at home is bigger than in the road.
Hey! LOL!  Grin
Yeah, I doubt they will let them steal another one in their hometown, that will be too much and it will raise a lot of questions to the team and the coaching staff about why they are letting it happen.
If Game 5 will be a sure win for you, how about Game 6? I am really excited about how this will end as the Celtics are also not backing down. They proved a lot in this playoffs and more.
Let's just see how Game 5 will be and maybe we could dissect what would happen in Game 6 afterward.

Whoever wins game 5 might be the NBA champion, that's my guess. If the Celtics win game 5, the Warriors will be pressured and they might struggle in game 6, so game 5 is really a must-win for them, no excuses, Curry has to score 43 points again if that is necessary for them to win.
2014  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA Finals 2022 - Warriors vs Celtics. on: June 13, 2022, 11:57:36 AM
Warriors have put in great defensive efforts coming into the playoffs and have been very dynamic coming into it. It have puzzled many an oppositions on how to make offensive plays for a defense that is consistently changing. They are most likely to win the series from the looks of it. Celtics need someone to take charge into the offense and the bench needs to pull their own weight.  Hopefully we get to see another game 7 in the series. I'm sure the NBA in general would love for that to happen.  Wink

If NBA would love that, does it mean they will rig the game to ensure that the series will reach game 7? If this is business, then most likely we will see that and I think Warriors winning game 5 is a must because Celtics will bounce back in game 6.
2015  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Newbies: Don't panic and learn to hold on: June 13, 2022, 11:33:50 AM
This call is not just for newbies but this is for everybody. Maybe for old-timers, this is not hard but still, many of them have not appreciated the word HOLD, it is somehow they got influenced by their negativity. In fact, looking back on the surge of panic selling in the last bear season, it can't be possible if we still don't value this thing (hold) this time.

I think this was the time to open up our mind and think about what we can help the market as panic selling never contribute positively but rather seeing negative results. We don't just ask but to encourage everyone to become strong and let this bear season pass worrying about nothing.
2016  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Sentiment Poll for June on: June 13, 2022, 09:08:12 AM

If you are a supporter there is no good or bad season because everything is for our belief and trust that is how crypto supporter must be .
I am a Bitcoin and altcoin holder , for year there is a currency that stays in my Wallet till now.
but of course Bitcoin stands not permanent , i try to buy and sell at the time cost , risking my funds? but gaining for trust.
Perhaps you are right.

 * Bear season - is a good time to buy
 * Bull season - is a good time to sell

Every season is a great opportunity, sometimes we don't appreciate it because we are too blind to see the positive side of it while others do. if we can afford to buy during the bull market, then we don't make an excuse for the bear season of not buying again. Indeed, as we trust our invested coins we no longer had to feel disappointments and worries as surely we can make a profit out from them someday.
2017  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is it good time for alts on: June 13, 2022, 08:10:00 AM
i think its took 3 years before the market is bull again idont know but ihop this bear market is short term not a very very long term again.
We are in 2022, the market would likely be bullish by 2024, but also in 2025, so we can say it should not take more than 2 years again as we even about to finish the first half of this year's in less than 3 weeks time. This bear market would end by this year if my guess is correct, but there would still be some mild bears and bulls market until massive bull market would come.
If your guesses are right then people are also happy to see that. But what I think is a big opposite on your guesses coz what I think the market will be in spike again during halving. So, it's probably 2024 - but I know people can still wait for that moment to come.
https://halvingdates.com/

Anticipating the market, fill our bags with potential altcoins - all we gonna do is to take this bearish time while it was not too late. Otherwise, we are going to blame ourselves back again just like it happen before which we just ignore this.
2018  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Crypto scam increasing on social media on: June 12, 2022, 11:48:20 PM
Crypto scam is somehow a part of the society the government regulation on social media like in the case of exchanges is impossible because exchanges are more centralized because each user is entitled to a single account with KYC verification with regards to the account but in the case of Social Media account get hacked for scam purpose and multiple accounts can be owned by a single user making it more difficult to get regulated.
The government can actually regulate the social media based on what they've been investigating and the cause of it.

Each region has their own way of preventing these scams to be lessened down depending on the ruling because if the scammers are from the other countries, it's really hard to eliminate it unless they can solely remove them from the platform if proven to be against the rules of the social media platform.

As a citizen and a user of a social media, we should be responsible for our actions and the usual tip from our parents of not talking to strangers is applicable.
How are they just ignored while scams have been rampant on Facebook? And they did nothing before numbers of individuals become a victim. Though it is our responsibility to know if that is a scam or legit investment, yet it was also their participation to regulate and restrict such activities. I know they can't be blamed solely but it was us who are greedy of not thinking about it earlier before losing money to these scammers. This means that we can't rid of these scammers as for sure they will find a way and always there is a way knowing that many people remain innocent despite awareness.
2019  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How has SEC contributed to the blockchain industry? on: June 12, 2022, 09:52:08 PM
Perhaps, what they did in our country is to send awareness to the public either on social media platforms or on television (news) in regards to crypto scams investment.
I was thinking their role was to protect against the rise of scams and stop the mindset of easy money and quick-rich schemes as this does not really exist in real life. However, I'd find this less effective rather than restricting the social media allowing this to publish because many were still falling into scams and Ponzi schemes.
2020  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Can anyone explain what is the value of meme coins? on: June 12, 2022, 09:27:48 PM
I am confused that there are meme coins whose prices are sky rocketing but I dont see any real value these meme coins are providing
Utility case is not the only way that meme coins prices will skyrocket, sometimes they are also hyped that makes them temporarily profitable. But knowing that any hype has eventually its end, then that's the time meme coins start to drop and eventually lose their value. This is why meme coins should be avoided in the first place because they're not making us profitable in the long run. Although some have been profiting from them for a short term, but there is also high risks and that anytime you will still end up losing what you all gained.
Hyped projects like meme coins are just ideal for a short-term deal, we can never think they couldn't be able to sustain the competition, they will certainly lose their value. Thinking about Dogecoin as a long and existing meme coin, it is somehow lucky that this project has been supported by a known market influencer, or else, it has been dead already.
Thus, if we want money protection, we tend to stay away from them...there are a lot of potential and long-term investments that warrant a better future.
