2041  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING] Manny Pacquiao vs. DK Yoo on: October 28, 2022, 07:44:06 AM
I'm assuming that Yoo is well-prepared accepting Manny's punches, I'm not sure if how it will be look like in terms of good entertainment, just wanted to quote it here that Manny aside from being a politics also enter movie industry, are we going to expect him to perform as a fighter or as actor that will provide entertainment here?

As fighter, oh well, not sure if Yoo can handle those solid combos of Manny, maybe 1-2 rounds if it's a real punch from Manny is enough for Yoo.

Let see if how these upcoming fights will be looking like, still aiming to see Manny to make some unexpected punches that will surprise Yoo..
I doubt he will be prepared for Pacquiao's punches if Pacquiao actually put power into his punches. I saw a video of him fighting Bradley Scott(former MMA champ) on his youtube channel and people are mocking him for editing the video so much just to make him not look so bad in the fight. judging from that I doubt he can handle Pacquiao if Pacquiao made an effort to actually fight him seriously even at his age.

I think even pro boxers at 147 lbs can't handle Pacquaio's power even if he is no longer fighting pro. Pacquiao is different, he was really gifted that's why he brought up his power when he moves up to different division.

So yeah, DK Yoo, won't handle it for sure and Manny knows that. So he might hold something so as not to hurt the Korean. And obviously this is for entertainment purposes so we don't want someone to get hurt along the way. DK Yoo though is very lucky that Manny chooses him to be his dancing partner in Pacquiao's first exhibition match.

Its' not that Manny has retired for many years now, it just been like 2 years or less from his last fight. So definitely there is still some power left in him.

I followed him on his one social media account and yes he is very much active. The good thing is that him and Jinky are sort of training together, LOL. So both of them are trying to be active, the fight is still in December but Manny might have started his training his light training with Jinky herself.
2042  Economy / Gambling / Re: STAKE SCAMMED $100K AND NOT REPLYING EMAILS FOR 6 MONTHS on: October 28, 2022, 02:02:07 AM
Any accusation without proof is just bullshit as we can mark from the writing of words that are concocted to bring down the reputation of Stake casino.
I am not trying to be the devil's advocate here but what about looking at this from the other side?
What about the allegations made by casinos when the ban a player's account and confiscate his money. Accusing him of match fixing or having multiple accounts.. without providing any evidences and their pretext is always that they don't won't to publish personal information or disclose how their anti-cheat systems work! Do you think it's acceptable?
Just to be clear, am asking in general and not about this particular case.


Or it is possible for the OP to go to arbitration? so that they can presented their evidence in front of someone that is not biased and knows a thing or to because they have experienced about it already?

Lately we have seen so many accusations and when casino presents their evidence the accuser still insists that they did nothing wrong. So the next course of action should be going to a middle man or arbitration to settle everything.

Martingale also entails luck + huge capital to begin win.

For techniques, I usually go max bet or a least with a decent multiple when I start to play slots. I don't know, maybe I felt that in the beginning it's better to go like this and if you are lucky then you can win big right away.

Just last Saturday I went to a landbase casino and just play 2 games, slots and roulette and very lucky to win in the beginning because of the max bet that I did on a slot game.
2044  Economy / Speculation / Re: October price guess on: October 27, 2022, 06:06:30 AM
Looking like we have some positivity into the end of month which would be nice.  There are weekly and monthly bars to consider also, its good when we can accumulate and build a trend but just a spike up means nothing so we have to see how far this can go also:
Good to see the price increased a bit. But there's nothing special since the price often reached $20k then turning down again, it's moving sideways for months now so probably many of us used to it.

Anyway, 5 days are left before this month end, can the price climb up beyond $20k? No one knows exactly. We are still in the last quarter there's still a chance since unexpected things can happen that's why i'm looking forward to it.

Yeah, I was completely shock when I checked the price and it seems to go above $20,100, not sure what pushes the price in the end of the week, usually we will see a decline around this time because of bitcoin future contract expirations.

But it seems to me that someone has manipulated the price from behind?

Nevertheless, it's a good sign for this month, when we thought that we will not get over the $20,000 barrier, now in less than 24 hours, we have reach that price, taking about volatility.

Welcome back to 20k and no one is manipulating the price here as the gains are nothing too strong. As far as I know, this is related to the US PMI (Purchasing Managers Index) in October, PMI was at 49.9, lower than expected at 51. This is the first time PMI has fallen below 50 this year and this is the basis for the Fed to cut rates more in November.
I am also quite surprised that the market is starting to recover towards the end of October, hopefully things can last before we continue to get news on the Fed rates in early November.

Ok, thanks for that input, as I have said, I haven't check the news that could influence the price action that we are seeing right now. Others said it went to $21,000, but currently, I'm seeing $20,800 so close enough.

And so i do agree that hopefully, this recovery or at least the price going above $20,000 could be sustainable and it's organic and no price manipulation so that it can remain in this level and increase it still till the end of this year.
2045  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Casimero vs Akaho - December 3 on: October 27, 2022, 05:48:39 AM

Ring rust, everyone has to go to this. It's just a matter on how boxers are going to shake it off. And most likely, when Casimero's experience, he might likely start slow in this fight but eventually find his rhythm and this could end up to be a very good fight to watch as this could be war in his first fight at 122 lbs.

Nah, Casimero understands that a win here is his ticket for the next big fight, he was off for a while but he is still hungry for a win since he did not actually lose in a fight, he just got stripped with his belt which I believe he regretted his mistake. His comeback fight is something we should not miss to see if that fire in him is still there as he needed that to have a chance to face Inoue in the future.

Yes, I think the motivation and the hungry is still in the belly of Casimero. You are right that he didn't lose any fight or his belt, it's just he can't make the desired weight at 118 lbs.

So he will have be extra motivated in this new weight class, he will for sure look for the likes of Inoue if he decided to jump on this division or the current champion. Although there could be argument that he might be too small at 122 lbs but we will see if his power will be enough in this new division.

Ok for those who want to get the link, here it is,

https://www.mensjournal.com/entertainment/best-bitcoin-gambling-crypto-betting-sites/

The magazine put the pros and cons, but still though there could be some that they put that we can debate or not agree with the author.

Just be careful clicking the links though, there could be some affiliate by the author and maybe that's one reason he says that this is the best because he is planning to have money out of it thru referrals.
2047  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Jermell Charlo vs Tim Tszyu - Jan 28, 2023 on: October 27, 2022, 03:44:10 AM
It's a great start for 2023 two have two of the tough fighters in the superwelterweight, Tim Tszyu deserves to have a crack at the title he has a good record and a good rating I remember him knocking out Jeff Horn, that was the first time I watched him fight his fighting style is similar to his father and he also has a good chin and hard puncher, but I have Jermell with a slight advantage against Tszyu, this is a very tough fight to predict.

Right, Tim Tszyu has been taking noise in this division for the last 2 years if I'm not mistaken and wanted to be like his father.

For those who are not familiar with his father, Kostya Tszyu, he is the one that give Zab Judah the infamous stanky legs, LOL. And probably if that happens on the social media days, the Internet would have exploded like when Maidana beat Broner.

2048  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bear market likely over? on: October 27, 2022, 03:26:11 AM
Its' too early to celebrate the end of bear market, LOL. The price is just above the mental barrier of $20,000, nothing more. It's doesn't mean that the market will change it's course. Definitely this is a good sign, but still it is way below our last all time high.

And for sure everyone knows that the catalyst for a bull run is the block halving which is still years from us (2024). Be careful though, this could be a trap.
2049  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Downfall still possible? on: October 26, 2022, 04:24:15 AM
It's a good time to clean house. It's almost as though the rules of the jungle are being followed here. Whoever is tough enough to stay standing is the winner.

Survival of the fittest isn't it?

Now, it's not just about the basics; it's also about how the developer teams will strategize their way through the winter. In response to your inquiry, this line of reasoning leads me to believe that there is, indeed, the potential for a further decline. At the moment, the majority of tokens and coins, including bitcoin, are moving in a somewhat stagnant manner, with little to no meaningful movement. People are currently waiting for the next movement to occur before they can forward with their plans.

I'm not really sure what you meant, I mean they should developed, the strategy part is with the CEO or any other management team behind the project. And I think that's one downfall of any project because everything was rolled into one for the developer, they become the programmer, the marketing arm and every, that's why the project failed in the beginner.

And as investors, we should prepare for the worst specially in this bear market.

One lucky guy and it's good that you got your pay without any issues as compare to others who have to file and open up a Scam Accusations just to get the attention of the gambling site and you don't know if the casino will pay or not.

And this could be compare to a lottery, I mean winning against the odds and the money he won is already big enough for the majority of us and we wish we had that kind of luck as well.
2052  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tennis League All Thread on: October 26, 2022, 02:39:02 AM
I caught the last two sets of Alcaraz v Draper last night, Draper did really well by winning
the first set and almost bringing the third set to a tie break.

There are a lot of players present at the ATP Basel who have been making headlines recently,
Felix AA and Rune! I think this will be very interesting to see how these games turn out when
these young guns meet each other.

It was finally a strong performance from Alcaraz after some setbacks. I'm glad to see the number 1 seed winning again.

It was not clear, or at least I was not sure how the game would end after Alcaraz lost the first set. But Alcaraz made a comeback. He did well but I also think Draper put his heart and soul into this match. But in the end, it was not enough for Draper.

I think we are going to see a clash between young players. Especially players who are not only young but also really competent players in this game. Expectations are going to be high from Alcaraz.

As we have discussed Alcaraz mentality is not that of a kid anymore, he has focused, but sometimes there are mishaps and it's understandable.

You can't take anything from Draper, he fought good in the first set winning it, but I guess Alcaraz have to remind himself why he is the top seed and it could be just enough to motivate him and won the next two games and a close third set.

Later we will see Rune vs Alex De Minaur, and this is going to be a good match.
2053  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much was your last big win? on: October 26, 2022, 02:13:54 AM
Hmm, not sure if this could be considered as big win but last Saturday we went to have some fun in a land base casino and I immediately won $500 dollars on slots and roulette. And I still continue to play with my friends and see if I can stretch my luck, unfortunately, I lost around $100, but I quickly stop because I know that I might lose all the winnings that I got. At least I have the mental fortitude to stop right away and I just walk around and tell the story to my friends until we all decided to go home and just continue the fun stories and memories in our home.
2054  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING] Manny Pacquiao vs. DK Yoo on: October 24, 2022, 08:11:39 PM
I am surprised no one is talking about this here yet, I guess it's probably because no one really knows who DK Yoo is(even I don't know who he is).

Same as you, I don't even know who that DK Yoo is or what is his preferred sport. What I only know is this is just an exhibition fight that will be hold in the boxing ring. Also, I really don't find this match interesting at all because Manny Pacquiao's foe is not that known, it's just like Mayweather's opponents. But I will watch this fight because it's been a while since the last time I saw Pacquiao step foot on the ring to fight, hopefully, Pacquiao will fight someone veteran that is near his caliber. Hopefully!

For us, he is not popular, but since the fight will be held in DK Yoo's home country of South Korea then expect that it will be a sell out crowd locally for them. Not sure if this is going to be stream around the world as most of Manny's fight. But if it is, then there could be some fans that are willing to watch this fight because they missed Manny inside the ring and this is the second opportunity for us to see him once again, although this is just a exhibition fight. So good choice of opponent for Manny and good place to start his career in the exhibition world.
2055  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Shitcoins and Memecoins on: October 24, 2022, 11:50:29 AM
Did you notice?
It is shitcoin season!!! Memecoins are not to be left behind!

What are Shitcoins?

Shitcoins are crypto assets with little to no value or digital currency that has no immediate, discernible purpose.
On the other hand, Memecoins are genres of crypto assets with it?s value derived from it?s community?s support. They are largely speculative.

Regardless of season though, shitcoins will still appear no matter what. Developers will have to find a way to make money, so they will create this shitcoin and promote it like it's a hidden gem or something and then people are going to buy. It's just more evident in the bear market, because the market is dry and everything is being magnify as all eyes on the new and latest project that is coming out. And it's either a shitcoin and meme coin. remember when the Queen died, many meme coins suddenly appear?, check them out, they are all dead, (no pun intended).
2056  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A disheartening true life winning story on: October 24, 2022, 11:22:06 AM
He got this case. He got the ticket, he got the proofs, and the company is trying to bribe him to not sue meaning he has a lot of sense in this lawsuit. Most of us would probably just take the L and get that $29,000, but luckily this man is very determined to get what he deserves. If anything, he could even get more than what he won if the court sees fit, and hopefully that would be the case to teach the lottery company a lesson that they cannot simply state that they voided winnings just because of an error on their part.

Nah, I will still get my winnings and will not accept that bribe. and since he has all the proofs and the ticket then there's no way that he is going to lose this one. Unless they bribe the judge and whoever is involved.

But if this get the attention of the public, then there's no way that he should lose the case. And it's good that he is that determine, I mean it's a win-win for him. So he might as well get and fight it out till the end.

Bitcoin price is not necessarily mean that the price will increase next year or before the year will run out, i know that cryptocurrency price is determine by the demands not by the month of the year, i can not guess that the price of Bitcoin will increase any moment from now, so therefore bitcoin price is something i believe the month of it doesn't matter any factor that is behind it.

Yes, cryptocurrency price doesn't determine by the month before it can pump higher or dump lower in the market, but it can increase higher more than $20,000 for traders to start making income before the end of the year. I don't think, the price will decrease more than $15,000 before it will increase higher in a way both long term traders and short term traders will believe that the price of Bitcoin will definitely hit $40,000 before the end of November. Now that many traders has prepared for the bullish market to come before they can sell to make a huge amount of money so that they will also have the opportunity to prepare for another bearish market to come for them to buy and hold.

Obviously, it is not determined by month, but if you look at bitcoin's history, usually the last quarter, we might see some run specially in December, before the Christmas holiday. If it increase to $20,000 then it's good, as the price is really on a decline and then trading sideways for the last couple of months.

Nevertheless if there is a new lower lows like $15,000, then don't take it negatively, we might just be ready to buy when the price is that low. It's another opportunity to fatten our wallet and then just have the patience to hold and wait till the next bull run.
2058  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Casimero vs Akaho - December 3 on: October 23, 2022, 05:36:08 PM
The fight won't be easy for the both fight,  the two men are strong fighters. The issue akaho has  is age, I don't know if age will a bareer for him not to be able to fight this fight.  Casimero is another rough fighter that I know he can challenge Akaho in this fight. I would like to see casimero how he will fight this match .

@lionheart78 - thanks for the info, yeah it seems that Akaho had beaten a lot of Filipinos in the past. And it just shows that this two nation are really arch-rival in this weight categories. Might be sweet revenge for Casimero here if he can spin the storyboard in that sense.

It's because they come from the same region and so their is rivalry between this 2 countries since way back when boxing was just starting. I still remember Penalosa, can't remember the weight class though, when he had like fight a Japanese which he can't really beat.

And so the rivalry still continues today with Akaho beating a lot of Filipinos. But most probably they could have been B level fighter. But this time it will be different as he is facing a world class Filipino champion in Casimero.
2059  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Haney vs Kambosos II (Undisputed) on: October 23, 2022, 05:21:43 PM
For Kambosos, it will be a difficult road for him, losing back to back and the best thing is to go up in weight. But then again, he doesn't have any power to be honest, I don't know how he knock down Teo in their fight, maybe Lopez underestimated him.

He should move if he can't make the weight. I remember during the first fight, he was off in the first try. Although me made the weight in the second fight, he seems to be very dry and lean.

That might be his next move because he can't really defeat Haney or at least give him a hard time. That way, he won't be having some struggles in his weight if he indeed have some issues woth it and it's no use in staying the same division if he can't be a star.

Kambosos' problem is Haney himself. Kambosos was undefeated before confronted with Haney's boxing strategies. Haney seemed to be Kambosos' kryptonite. Kambosos was strong. He even defeated Teofimo Lopez. It's just that boxers have different strategies. Haney was more like Mayweather. And that's something Kambosos' found hard to solve. He was a puzzle Kambosos really failed to solve. He doesn't necessarily have to go up in weight though.

Those 2 losses from Haney is just the beginning, he only had 20 fights, and those 2 losses of him will make his opponent so confident in betting on him. usually, when a fighter had losses already, he is not the same anymore, just like what happened to Bronner, he was once undefeated but when he experience a lose, that continues to happen until he losses his career.

It could be just I think Kambosos will have to make a difficult decision to whether go up in weight or stay in this division and continue to campaign and fought some notable fighters again.

Broner case is different though because he is so arrogant and brandish that's why his mentality went down after he lost to Maidana and up to know he thinks he won the fight against Manny Pacquiao. LOL.

Kambosos should fight a boxer next that he can beat and bring back his confidence.

Fury vs Usyk have been postponed for next year if I'm not mistaken as Usyk said that he wanted to take a break. And then we have heard that Fury vs Joshua was also in the horizon, unfortunately the fight is also in a dead end.
Usyk wants to rest so he can heal properly physically from the fights he has been in this year already, we will see him in the ring again next year. Fury who is hungry for a fight and has been turned down by Anthony Joshua for that audience, will now fight Chisora for the third time who he has beaten twice before. Fury is in a high spirited mode and is promising a good fight, but since he wanted the Anthony Joshua challenge before which he didn't get heading to the fight with Usyk next year, his team should not want to be quick to see Chisora as a walk over. Chisora has lost twice already to Fury and knows exactly who he is getting into the ring with, he will not like to make it three times, and he was the winner in his last fight, maybe that's an indication that he has developed from the last time he was in the ring with Fury.

I do agree, it's not that Usyk is trying to avoid Fury, but he just come from a struggling 12 round fight from Anthony Joshua. And so he has every right to rest for a while. While Fury is desperate to remain active this year, calls joshua but the fight didn't move forward. Now Chisora is the chosen one, but we all know that Chisora is no match for Fury. And whatever style Chisora shows in this fight, Fury will still win in my opinion.
