^  Mmm..  Would it be possible that the BTC market's reaction is currently lagging behind the world economy right now?  Like there's a group of holders out there who think it's the bottom and they're all hopeful that it's all going up from here on out sooner or later...  In other words there's a group of holders out there that hasn't capitulated yet and when they do, it would be the perfect time to get in.

What does everybody think?  I look at the chart and it seems like 17k - 18k is bought up then nothing.  Those buyers could be getting worried atm as there's not a whole lot of other buyers getting in with them.  And with the whole economy everywhere going in a bad spot too.

A new Ballon d'Or has been awarded to Karim Benzema. The article I read has made me fall in love with this man. It is impossible to measure the level of sportsmanship and dedication he showed to his team. Because undergoing surgery would leave him out of action for two months, he has been serving his team with a fractured little finger. This shows his determination to reach his dreams, and finally he was awarded the Ballon d'Or.

I can totally remember how barely Benzema used to score for Real Madrid during the time when he took the lead. Even just before the season Ronaldo left, he only scored 5 goals. It is worth mentioning that Benzema was happy to be a sideman for Ronaldo while CR7 was on the team since CR7 had the main responsibility for scoring goals for the team, which fell to him.

Upon his departure, Karin stepped into that position, and my God, what an amazing job he has done with it!! He scored 27 goals in the league the following season after CR7 left, and since then he has been one of the most consistent goal scorers in the entire continent, and this Ballon d Or was well deserved for him

Yeah...  Not even the high profile signings of Bale and Eden Hazard could make a dent on Benzema as the top guy at Real Madrid post Ronaldo.  But with Bale, it's prolly just wrong timing as Ronaldo was still in the club when Bale arrived.  And Ronaldo was somewhat still in top form then.  With Hazard...  No excuse.  He came in over weight and fat that summer and was never able to get back to the way he was at Chelsea.  What a waste...  The way he played, I really thought he was going to be like another Ronaldo.

What a bore fest in Premier League tonight. Don't remember when was the last time we had so little goals in a match day. Most of the games finishing 1:0 and only United looking like they actually want to score. Could have been even bigger win for them tonight. Spurs looking really bad and they can only than Lloris for being just 2:0 down.

My tickets in shambles of course, as expected when both to score fails as miserably as today.

Heh yeah...  It's the midweek, playing at night and the managers and their squads have to think about the next set of fixtures in the next couple or so days at the weekend.  Not good...  A footballer's life isn't that glamorous if you look more closely to it esp in times like these.  :/

I've learned not to bet these matches through the years.  Better for your wallet in the long run. 

And speaking of wallets, thanks Hhampuz...  You saved me from a making a losing ticket with Arsenal and BTTS combo.  Smiley

^  Depends how Perez does at quali.  He's not really that good at quali that it costs him a podium almost every GP.  It's far from Hamilton - Bottas or from back in the day Schumacher - Barrichello.  If anything I like Leclerc and if some sht happens on the track during the race, I think Hamilton and Sainz could win the race.  But overall, it's prolly going to be smooth sailing for Verstappen.  'What did we expect' would be our reaction.  Lol.

There are too many people who are afraid of price being lowering that fast,
Are there really?

Whenever we see someone talk about price drop there are two reasons for it.
First are those newbies who bought bitcoin (and are still holding it) and are worried about it dumping (or dying) because they read some FUD so they are afraid of the price drop and it is visible in what they say. These people are known as weak hands.

Second are those who have already sold their bitcoins and are hoping for the price to drop more so that they can buy more bitcoin with the fiat they are bagholding. When they talk about being "afraid of price drop" they are pretending and are telling others their wishes.

We currently have more of the second group than the first.

So if the market really has more noobs and more people hoping for another drop...  Does that mean you think that there are more chances for BTC of starting to trend up than continue trending down from here on out?  Have we really now hit the bottom?

If so, how confident are you that BTC is now at the bottom?  Say around 70% confident that BTC is at the bottom?

Anyway, I think I know my next poll for November if BTC still stays in a tight range.

Congrats to the Liverpool fans and to the degens who had the balls to take Liverpool.

I'd take the loss if we'd won every other game, tbh. But yeah, this game means a lot to us.

Seriously though, are we taking Arsenal seriously enough? Beat Liverpool, Leicester and Spurs, okay lost to United, City have only beaten... who else in Top 6 contenders besides United?

It's more than a lot with how bad Liverpool's run is this season.  It's really the morale boost Klopp and the squad really needed.  Hopefully a good run comes out of it.  Not a Liverpool fan but I like Klopp. 

Arsenal is a contender for the title.  I'd like to see them go against City now.  The master vs the apprentice.  Wink  And if there's a manager already ear marked by Guardiola to replace him it's Arteta. That much we know.  I'd be surprised if it isn't Arteta.
2068  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: October 19, 2022, 02:08:33 PM

Surely this fight has brought great hype to the industry of UFC where the fight is the most awaited fight this month surely this will not be an easy fight for both of them and that's why it would be a pleasure to witness this history. I just want to watch this one live on stream and will not gonna blink because anything could happen because of missed calculations by both fighters. when we looked at social media today, it seems like the majority of the fans are rooting for Charles and I'm sure most of them know the real deal will happen inside the cage and it's a few days more left.

Charles Oliveira could be at a disadvantage with Islam Makhachev, but his determination of Oliveira and going to the length to train wrestling is really assuring that he surely got a plan installed for Makhachev and I really want to see that, I really don't want to see a one-sided fight that is why I would like to see Charles Oliveira get on with it with Islam Makhachev, but I like Makhachev to be victorious in their fight, but I am still not sure who's really going to win,



Stacked!  I love all the match ups except for just a couple of fights.  That's how good it is...  Excited to see Mokaev back in the cage again.  But I feel for Malcom Gordon tho.  Why do the match makers have to do him like that?  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy  He is dead in this match.

The main card is a must watch from start to finish.  All the match ups are good and some of those underdogs could steal the W.  Oliviera, Dariush and Dillashaw could make it too close for comfort for Makhachev, Gamrot and Sterling bettors.

Anyway here's the countdown vid.  Enjoy!

UFC 280:  Countdown
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrBKzNkxpsI

It was a jam-packed event and If I could get a bet on every one of them, I think 2 to 3 fights were the ones that I don't like, but most of it was a good one, for me, I will be taking a great meal and snack and a big gulp just for this event when I watch it, getting a better view as well we can not get this good of an event, a better match up is surely the main event for me I really can't say who's really going to win Makhachev is likely dominant on the ground, but Oliveira is a smart one that could plan a better idea in winning against Islam,

Same...  I'm back and forth between them.  I kinda felt like it's Oliveira a week ago then it was Makhachev when I made my picks for the Multi Master.  Lol.  The thing is, yeah Makhachev hasn't fought an elite grappler before like Oliveira but then again watch Makhachev's last three matches.  He def improved his wrestling.  He's like getting better than Khabib or at least he's looking like he's getting better. 

As a pick I'll take Makhachev but if Oliveira's line goes over 3, I'll take him as a bet.  So it either goes money piles in on Oliveira, I take me some Makhachev hopefully around 1.60 or the money piles in on Makhachev then I take Oliveira if it goes over 3.00.

With the Circuit of the Americas having a decent amount of straights, it's pretty much Red Bull's race.  The books have Verstappen at 1.45.  Lol.  Rarely have I seen the books so confident in a driver by giving him such a line before quali that's devoid of any value.  It's Leclerc next at 7.20 and interestingly Hamilton at third at 8.25.  :/

^  As I've already said, yeah it's gonna be exactly that.  'Why isn't the line skewed towards Makhachev?'.  But then again after the event we could be saying 'wtf were we expecting?  Of course Makhachev wins.'.  Lol.  From a Multi Master perspective I'm picking Makhachev.  But with the event held at Abu Dhabi, Khabib's contingent could get huge backing over there as they're huge Khabib fans.  They'll prolly be betting heavy on Makhachev and cause the line to move last minute, making Oliveira's line go way up in value.  Anything close to and over 3.00 would be tempting.

Anyway here's the Multi Master.  Good luck.

^  Yeah, I don't really follow international football much but having somethng new would be great.  I'm kinda getting bored with football again.  I'll prolly take up something new like curling.  Cheesy 

And I forgot to make my picks for this round.  But if I had made my picks it would be Toney, Vardy, Pereira, maybe Costa, Ronaldo, Adams and Jesus.  If that's the winning ticket then fk me.

@tokeweed why would you select Vardy as Leicester player’s have forgotten how to score this season, and now we’ll be seeing too many matches due to the World Cup so make sure you’ll keep an eye on fresh injuries and suspensions before selecting your picks. Furthermore Ronaldo did score last time round, but I’m not sure if he can get on the scoring sheet again because currently he’s being used to draw the defenders away so other player’s can score from his passes.

I just pick Vardy for Leicester because I have no idea how they're playing this season.  Lol.  I know it's the worst since they got promoted but I haven't really been following the EPL as much as I used to.  It's mostly the UFC for me as of late.

And you know...  Ronaldo and Vardy seems like the obvious picks for every match say if they're in the line up.  I'm like a noob these days.  I still do have a bit of an idea of what's going on tho.
No matter who you picked when they played 0:0 Smiley

Go make your Majestic 7 picks guys, I am sure there is some of you unaware that next match day starts tomorrow, so not much time left. Games look quite ok, I have gone with all the penalty takers from the home sides. Keeping fingers crossed for some stupid challenges inside the box Smiley

Lol yup.  So for their next match vs Leeds I'm picking Rodrigo to get one in.  Cheesy  Leicester really looks so deep in a rut this season.  But it's surprising that the club has decided to keep Brendan Rodgers around for this long.  I thought they'd go into damage control mode and get the most touted manager who saves clubs from relegation:  Sam Allardyce.  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy  If they're gonna do it, they better do it early.  They can't afford to wait til December.

My picks for the Majestic 7 are the usual suspects...

Trossard
Adams
Zaha
Mount
Wilson
Mitrovic
Rodrigo

Leeds United 0-1 Arsenal

Arsenal look like they are unstoppable this season. Another victory, despite having had some difficulties.
It remains isolated in the first place, and with the defeat of Man City, it is now with 4 points of advantage.
Will the winners of this season be Arsenal?

I'll be convinced if Arteta and co. could win one match against City either home or away.  Doesn't matter as long as they get three points off of them.  But right now, as is, Man City has the better squad over all, the better manager and they got the experience.  In the league, they're steady and they just do their thing and rack up those points.

But after those wins vs Tottenham and Liverpool, I get why people are talking.  But it's just 4 points and there's still 7 months of EPL left.

It's just one of those life's mysteries.  No matter what he does, no matter how better he is this season, no matter how he tries...  Even having the hottest striker on his side.  Klopp will always have Pep's number.  Lmao.  There's just nothing he can do.  I fear for City in the CL if they draw Klopp and his boys.

Congrats to the Liverpool fans and to the degens who had the balls to take Liverpool.

What do you guys think of Arsenal to win and BTTS combo at 2.85?  I think that's pretty good odds if we play with the numbers the books are giving us.  Leeds over .5 goals is around 1.50 or close to it, Arsenal to win is at 1.55 but Arsenal and BTTS is at 2.85?  I think that's pretty good number imho.  

Another line I like is Man City straight up at 1.89 for obvious reasons.  Not sure why it's decently high with how good they're running.

Feels like a trap, this has 2-0 arsenal written all over it. What are the odds on Arsenal to win and BTTS "No"?

Guys don't forget that we start this week early with a Brentford vs Brighton game tonight.I think in this game it is only natural to back Brighton which has only lost two games against strong teams while Brentford has suffered really big by winning only 1 of 7 last games that they played.The odds of the game suggest for a draw but I think backing a Brighton win tonight should be generally a good idea or to be sure why not go for that golden bet in Premier League that happens at least 90% of the time which is both teams to score yes.

Whew, thanks for reminding us.  I was feeling lazy and was planning on making my predictions tomorrow morning.  

Brighton could win but I wouldn't underestimate Brentford at home.  They've had just one loss at home so far and it was vs Arsenal which I think we could give Brentford a pass for it.  Most notable win at home is vs Man United, 4 - 0.  They also won vs Leeds 5 - 2.  They're losses away are vs Newcastle, ok sure and vs Fullham which should be kinda sketchy but it was an away game.

It looks like you are right,Brentford is winning at home in the first half and judging by the way that both teams are playing I think I have lost my prediction and most probably Brighton cannot turn things around but I am pretty confident that they will at least score one goal to make that golden bet in the Premier League happen at both teams to score yes.

I was deceived by the fact that Brentford had only won 1 of their last 7 games and that is why I chose a Brighton win because normally my gut feeling was 1-1 as a prediction for this game.

Yeah except that I gave Brighton too much credit in this spot.  Had it at 2 - 2 in the pool.
