Sportsbet hasn't let off their game, new 4-3-free and bet-6 as I posted earlier, and today's special on the EFL cup as well: United to win and under 3.5 goals isn't too bad at 25/10: https://sportsbet.io/sports/sportsbet-specials/daily-specials/efl-cup/matches

I'm of course betting on them to lose Wink
EFL Cup matches were very good to the Manchester sides. Manchester United was 2-0 for the special to win the other day and Manchester City won their match yesterday 3-2 against Liverpool.
Got the match at over 3.75 goals at 2.32x so those were easy to get with both teams after a long break and wanting to get back to the action.

Can't wait until the EPL starts up this weekend again.

I usually don't bet a lot, but after playing ~10 tickets daily during the WC my fingers are a bit itchy when I don't have a ticket that is still live hahah
Welcome to my world. Now I am waiting for summer lull when there isn't any conventional sports and you texting me something like: "What was that you were talking about eSports? have you got some good DOTA tips for today?"

I don't think there was a day in the last 10 years when I did not play a ticket. Not always for big money but something has to be wagered every morning.
Have been betting on some dota2 matches lately from ralle14 mention of it on the Sportsbet.io esports thread for tips on these matches.
Won both bets I had placed as singles so he does know his stuff when it comes to dota.
2022  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Elon musk is for crypto or just for attention to boost Tesla, SpaceX? on: December 23, 2022, 04:25:38 AM
He most likely have investments in crypto at the time that he's so bullish with shilling memecoins. Which he also them funneled into Tesla hence part of the reason for its high valuation last year. Now that he's done with crypto, or at least so it seems, I doubt he'd ever do anything to maybe even boost its popularity to the people. Especially now that people sre seeing him for who he truly is which is a trust-fund baby with anger issues and nigh-zero social skills. His credibility on the internet is waning fast and it's better now that he's leaving crypto alone instead of shilling it and dragging us along with him and his mess.
This is a new term I haven't heard somebody referred to him but from what I have seen about his past he certainly could be.
As a child he was carrying emeralds in his pockets to show to his class mates so that does show as being the sort at an early age from his upbringing.

But about the subject about him and his company owning bitcoin and what they are going to do with it, Tesla has been suffering lately with him selling off nearly $3.6bln of it's stock. So it doesn't look like he is doing to well after the buying of twitter.
https://www.forbes.com/sites/siladityaray/2022/12/15/musk-sells-nearly-36-billion-in-tesla-stock-moves-further-away-from-richest-person-title/?sh=2c4a04076015

So he might be looking to sell off some of that bitcoin he has on Tesla's books so to offset his losses on the sale of twitter to him.

For the matchup tonight between the Jets and the Jags I chose Trevor Lawrence to score over 1.5 touchdowns.
Made the bet the other day along with a dota2 match we were talking about on the esports topic:


Because what they did to the Cowboys was too good not to be hyped about this game and not score some more.
2025  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Edward Snowden is ready to become Twitter CEO for bitcoin pay on: December 21, 2022, 11:42:05 AM
I'm waiting for Elon to come up with another tweet concerning the poll that he has made. It seems that he'll kick himself out of the CEO position and having that said, Snowden applies for it showing his interest in the position. I doubt that Elon will just actually give him that position since he's no longer a US citizen. Just a few months ago Snowden was granted by the Russian government his citizenship there. So, there could be some conflicts with it along with personal interest.
He won't. It was sort of a pun on Snowden behalf since he knows twitter is a US based company and he is a fugitive of the US government thus can not own or operate anything within it's borders.
Addition to this Elon wouldn't be able to pay him in bitcoin since he probably will end up selling his holdings due to his other companies stocks had been suffering since his takeover of the platform. Some have speculated it has taken all his time away from the operating of his other companies.

F1 2023 schedule was announced with the dates to expect the races and their locales.
These can be reviewed below:

Some regulation changes have been given to each team. Just seen them on a video from youtube so of course those have not been officially confirmed by FIA.
2027  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Elon musk is for crypto or just for attention to boost Tesla, SpaceX? on: December 21, 2022, 09:52:06 AM

That's the thing, he buys out these companies and just installs another ceo in his place.
You see a pattern developing here? Now with twitter he is asking the public if he should step down.
Then who would replace him in this instance?
There is even Edward Snowden who has said he would take his place in the company if he were to be paid in bitcoin for the assignment.
Which is amusing in itself. He was the main reason why it became so popular when it did early on a decade ago.

Well in the ongoing of the world cup i didnt go well with my bets, but..... my outright placed before the start works.
And for me was double prizes because im argentinian.
Well its 6.5 odds though so with atleast 5 mbtc in this bet, you should be getting decent amount from this bet already. So anyone else ended up betting on Argentina as well aside from darxiaomi and Trofo? Dang it France, absolute insane comeback just to throw the game in the penalty shootout but yeah Emiliano Martinez was very good on penalty shootout
Alot of people including myself bet on Argentina to lift the trophy and not on 1x2 like so many others did and lost their bets on this.
I even posted on another thread where I had them to win it all because I simply knew Messi could not be denied the greatest title to exist in football and be eluded of it in his final chance to grab it.
Good for him and I am really happy to see him prevail at this achievement!

2029  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Elon musk is for crypto or just for attention to boost Tesla, SpaceX? on: December 20, 2022, 01:14:47 PM
This poll setup by Elon was really a ploy to see how the platform performed against what he was striving to condemn in the first place:

https://www.bbc.com/news/business-64034892

Some were saying put Jack Dorsey back as CEO however this might end Elon Musk will remain the owner and have the last say on everything that happens at the company, regardless if he steps down as CEO or not.

Again, the rules "dont let judges decide your faith" worked. I also believe that Gordon won that fight, but he should have done more against UFC future cash cow. Judges that evening made a decision of not who won that fight, but who will sell more PPV in future. And Pimblett with growing popularity and 3-0 in UFC looked much better than Gordon with 7-4. With all that in-fight taunts Pimblett made a overall good impression on judges, and the scales dropped lowered to his side.
I can hear your criticism from that 7-4 score that must of been from that one judge(Crosby) Ariel has been talking about from a clip here:
BREAKING! UFC Judge EXPOSED, Accused of Fixing Fights ! Dana White GOES OFF after UFC 282.. - Young 'n Faded MMA Society

I always knew that there are a lot of behind the scene games in UFC. The link that you have posted does not fully prove that there are fixed fights in UFC, but it proves that UFC is more oriented in money than in fair competition. Btw, you can search google for Seth Petruzelli interview. He says that UFC offered him money and asked no to use takedown or wrestling skills against Kimbo Slice, because Slice was a newbie in wrestling and a boxer (street boxer) primary. UFC did not want Slice to lose, wanted to make him a series of wins, to face heavyweight champ and make huge PPV sales. To bad Seth was able to TKO Slice instead of submitting him:D
There has always been some behind the scenes things going on in this fighting association going on from the very beginning so no surprise on what has come out as of late with it and a gambling controversy that was hard to ignore since it was banned in a region of North America a while ago because of it.
The video about how all this all transpired a few months ago:
The UFC has a MAJOR Gambling Problem | James Krause is only the beginning,,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltYTPauj_k4&list=WL&index=3

This was all because of a coach of a fighter in the UFC who blatantly confessed to betting on fights and even on the ones of his own fighter.
He had a discord server which gave out predictions on fights in the UFC for a subscription fee.
Very bad stuff to be involved with.

G2 with the clean win against Team Liquid it's been a while since they got a trophy and I hope they can keep things going as there's the IEM Katowice next year.

Later today the dota qualifiers will resume and unfortunately, there's not a lot of lines available to choose from but I'll take Neon Esports @1.95 vs Spawn, Neon has the better form while Spawn has higher ranked players which makes them the slight favorites.
IEM Katowice invites for the tournament were announced just yesterday with the teams that will make an appearance:

https://www.hltv.org/news/35277/iem-katowice-2023-teams-decided

Noticed Spawn is playing a match today currently against Lilgun so I would say you won your bet on this match in the DPC Sea Tour 1 right?

There were three matches this past weekend which were stand outs in anyone's opinion:
Jacksonville where they ran it all the way back for a TD to win the game.
Las Vegas for the very last play of the game New England had possession but gave it away and Raiders ran it in for a TD for the win.
And of course the Vikings as you had mentioned in Minnesota where they were down 33 points to bring it all the way back to win.

Christmas eve and day have matches being played in the NFL so it should be a festive holiday season for all American Football fans.

Those Vikings came back from being down 33-0 in the middle of the third quarter to beat the Colts.
It was the biggest comeback in NFL history and it was something to behold as Cousins the Minnesota quarterback didn't even realize until a reporter mentioned it to him right before doing the post game interview.

Another bet that you won! The Browns match ended 13-3 so the under was there. Baltimore are struggling without their first string QB Lamar.

Wasn't it strange to have games playing on a Saturday? I am thinking it is because of the holidays so they had to squeeze in as many as they could before next weekend.

The Blast playoffs starts later today and i'm surprised that Navi is slightly favored in this match when they still look shaky. Team Liquid on the other hand is performing better compared to Navi even though they're in a similar position they're able to grab at least a map in that one losing series. I already placed my bet on Team Liquid@ 2.04 since they're the value pick and Navi nearly lost against Heroic who are playing with a stand-in.
Very good choice on Team Liquid taking it yesterday @ralle14 !
I had them too on all my betslips so that is a solid win.

But today OG is playing them for a place in the semi-finals and they took the first map. On the second map it looks like they made some adjustments and are now on their way to winning it so to tie it up. Anibus as the decider map. It was interesting to see the stats on this map actually.
There were some glitches that were not fixed before putting it into the map pool that were resolved with an update but they didn't apply it for this tournament:
"On Anubis, several spots where grenades and guns could fall through the ground have been addressed, along with various clippings that caused issues with throwing grenades and players getting stuck — the arch leading to the B bombsite among the most notable.
These changes are not expected to come into play at the ongoing BLAST Premier World Final, which is now heading into the semi-finals. The tournament runs on an old patch, dating back to even before the next-to-last update that disabled so-called 'magic' molotovs on Tuesday."

Kyler Murray couldn't get those props of touchdowns because he went down right at the start of the game.
Thanks for filling me in there, and it's unfortunate for the Cards as it looks like he'll be out for the rest of the season and maybe even longer.

Also good to see that the TNF giveaway is back this week and the under might be the play for this game when the Niners' defense is on a roll and held the Bucs within 7 points.
You were on point with your predictions with the 49ers holding their opponents to make it a low scoring game.
The San Francisco 49ers quarterback is holding his own against the likes of Tom Brady and now Geno Smith who was ranked #1 in the league for passing completions.
https://www.seattletimes.com/sports/seahawks/geno-smith-closing-in-on-rare-season-completing-70-of-his-passes-for-seahawks

So that is twice in a row for this rookie quarterback who surprisingly has done very well to take on the role after Jimmy Garoppolo was injured.
They managed to clinch their division with the win last night.
