Friends, I might disappoint you by saying that Bivol vs Beterbiev fight is not going to happen in nearest future. The reason is simple - Dmitri Bivol is representing Russia. In November 2022, Mauricio Sulaiman, world boxing council, has removed Russian and Belorussian boxer from ranking and dont allow them to participate. So either the war ends before their potential fight (not likely), or he will make an exception for Bivol (also not likely), or Bivol would have to change his passport. Probably both will have one more fight before they might possibly meet.
I don't think all those options will happen. Damn war and politics affecting our beloved sports. Thanks for clearing that out though, it seems like we forgot there's a war happening out there.
Also according here, he has not approached WBC yet for an exemption.
Quote
“Bivol has not approached the WBC (to ask for an exemption)," Sulaiman told reporters and Izquierdazo. “At our last Convention, we were very clear about our position in relation to fighters from Russia and Belarus. And that is the case with Bivol."
Well, I guess we have no choice but to wait for that war to end.

We almost forgot it since it's been a year since these 2 countries are still bombarding with each other. Many Ukrainians are affected, heritages being destroyed and at the same time, sports has been affected on these 2 countries and that includes the boxers from Russia and Belarus which is a bit unfortunate if you are a boxing fan. I just hope that this war will end soon or maybe this year, and I also hope that this war between between 2 countries will not escalate anymore to the point that other countries will join the war.

I guess the best option for Bivol with the 3 options that he shares is to change his passport. I don't expect the WBC to make an exception for him just for the sake of money. Very disappointing, but understandable and it's beyond his control anymore.

I'm also guilty about that as I did also forgot that there's an unfortunate situation that is still going on in the North because Dmitry Bivol already got two fights even at the height of the Ukrain-Russia war and honestly, I did not see this coming that the WBC will still keep their stand about the Russian/Belarus fighters because I did think that they are now on a neutral phase because sports is an entertainment and the said fighters doesn't have any concerns and involvements about the ongoing war. This is just too unfortunate, not just for them but to us, the avid boxing fans as well.
2182  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue - WBC and WBO 122 lbs bout - May on: February 02, 2023, 08:19:51 PM

Yeah, he has proven that he can win outside of his native country Japan. But if this one is going to be held in Saitama again, Inoue will have so much confident because he wanted to please the crowd again, just like what he did against Donaire, devastating knockout win.

Perhaps we may want to re-phrase that, chances of Fulton are slim to stop the train hype of the Inoue. Naoya is on a destructive path that we don't know who is going to beat him in 122 lbs.

Fulton is really in a tough challenge here as Inoue will be the crowd favorite despite being the challenger. I can't imagine this fight will end in judges' scorecards as if we follow the trend, Inoue will easily win here via KO. As long as Fulton is willing to go toe to toe, it will not be a boring fight, and of course, he has to suffer a painful defeat as Inoue is such a heavy hitter.
It's already understood that he is the crowd favorite because he is a very popular fighter. Per https://www.ringtv.com/ratings/, Inoue is ranked number 2 in the pound for pound ranking, that's how popular he is, and as he keeps winning impressively, eventually he will get the top spot. I don't know, maybe other source will already give him the number 1 spot.

I guess not that easy because Canelo Alvarez is still holding his throne and that won't be easy for Inoue to replace, although I know his time will come sooner because he's much younger than Canelo and eventually he will replace him. Aside from that, the only possible way for Inoue to get the P4P King title is if Canelo will have another defeat.

Back to the fight, this will be indeed a challenge for Fulton and I'm excited what would be his move against Inoue because he's still the champion here and I expect that he will not give that belt easily as Fulton himself wanted this fight before he jumps to the next weight class.

I have the Warriors +10.5 against the Nuggets. What do you think about the spread? is it a gift or just a trap?

Warriors came from a disappointing loss, and might be tired going to this game but I don't think they'll lose in double-digit against the home team.
About injury, there's no announcement yet that one of their best players will not play, like Curry or Thompson.

So would you guys take the handicap?
I find the Warriors quite hard to read at the moment but the current odds @1.90+ is already decent. I don't see any reason not to take that bet since no reported injuries on starting players as you mentioned. I'm not betting on them on ML but they should be able to cover that +10.5 handicap.   

Yes, as of now, there's no reported injuries for the entire Warriors roster except for Andre Igoudala. The starters are quite healthy but lately, they've been playing too long without having any rests in-between and they just had a back-to-back game with a loss too. Let's already consider that maybe Steph or Klay might take the day-off, so that won't be having any wear and tear in the upcoming days. But I agree, a +10.5 handicap is not that bad.

Kabayan, sasabay ako sayo dyan sa Warriors (-2.5) dahil halatang di kakayanin ng Wolves na talunin sila. Di pa naman sure pero parang ganun na rin haha. At sabayan ko pa sa Thunders (-6.0). Goodluck!

Sorry kabayan, talo pareho ang picks mo. Sayang yung Warriors, pera na naging bato pa, hehe.. Sa Thunders naman, maganda sana ang pick mo pero gustong manalo ng Rockets, pagod na siguro kasi laging natatalo. hehe..

Bukas naman mga kabayan, bawi nalang tayo.

Lakers ML
Bulls -6.5
Warriors +10.5
Clippers ML (sana maglaro si PG and Leonard)

Oo nga eh, inalat masyado at ang baho ng naging prediction ko haha. Di naman talaga inaasahang mananalo ang Rockets kanina laban sa Thunders, pero parang pinagbigyan na din para di rin gaanong kawawa.

Sabayan kita dyan sa Lakers ML kabayan at Warriors +12, dagdag ko na rin ang Bucks -4 .. Goodluck, sana palarin na Grin

Crazy ending to that Lakers game. LeBron got another chance to get a game winner but this time he passed the ball to Anthony Davis who then committed an offensive foul which ended up with the game going to overtime. They still won and LeBron moved a little closer to the record. Westbrook seemed to get a lot of crunch time minutes as well.
That was a lucky break for the Knicks, it's just that their last play was not planned well, I think it should be Brunson who should take the last shot as he is hot in that game, for sure if he missed it, he might get a foul. I don't understand why it was Randle who took the last shot.
Randle, as I observed him, he wanted to be the go-to guy of the team. I also consider that it should be Brunson to take that last
shot as he got a much better percentage, and he's not new in carrying a team.
Remember when Luka was out during the semis against the Sun's this man really help the team to win games and not to allow
Suns to take advantage of them.
But nothing that can be changed now, good to see that Lakers wins might be another controversial missed call.

The Lakers played well as a team. At a point, I actually thought that it might go south for Lakers. But in the end, everything was all right. LeBron James and Anthony Davis played well. Lakers have been through a bad form recently. And it was good to see that Lakers have won this game. They have not been consistent at all. Hopefully, this will be the time when they start being consistent. Five wins in the last 10 are probably not up to the standards that Lakers set for themselves.


Fair point but I have to way that the Lakers somehow got lucky this night because the Knicks are out of their form lately and it's quite surprising that Randle took that shot because it's been proven that he is not a clutch player. Yes, he's quite reliable to shoot whenever the team needs him but under pressure? He's not the go-to-guy for the Knicks, that is why a lot of people has been left wondering why he was chosen to have the ball in the most crucial seconds.

Swak ang pasok mo dito kabayan, 8 points ang nilamang ng Warriors enough para macover yung binigay na partida, hindi ako nakanuod ng mga laro kaya sinilip ko na lang sa replay, napaganda yung odd mo dyan x2 yung taya mo tapos exciting pa kasi humabol din talaga yung OKC nung second half buti hindi tumigil yung Warriors sa 4th at nakipagsabayan talaga para ma secure yung magandang kalamangan.

Maganda nga ang pagkakakuha ko sa odds na yan kabayan kasi bihira lang na maliit yong spread na ibibigay ng bookies sa Warriors considering na kompleto sila, i mean naglalaro na kasi si Wiggins. Mabuti nalang at tinambakan ng Warriors yong Thunder sa first half pa lang at hindi na nahabol pa ng Thunder sa second half, magaling din tong si Alexander, parang franchise player to ng Thunder.

Para ngayong araw ay sasabayan ko si kabayang mirakal sa kanyang Lakers ML @2.02 vs Knicks, maglalaro na siguro si LBJ at AD ngayong araw.

Parang maganda nga yang taya nyong dalawa kasi naghahabol yung lakers ng Panalo tapos nakapag pahinga pareho sila Lebron at Davis kaya medyo maganda siguro ipapakita nilang dalawa laban sa knicks, medyo nag aalangan lang din ako kasi itong Knicks matindi rin sumilat to eh, tapos galing pa sa pahinga kaya aabangan ko muna sa live to tapos tsaka ako magtatapon ng spare kung sakaling maganda talaga yung ipapakita ng Lakers!

Congrats din sa yo kabayan kung nakasabay ka sa Lakers ML kanina. Napakagandang laro para sa Lakers pero muntikan na rin silang matalo sa dulo buti nalang at hindi naipasok ni Randle yong huling tira nya at nag-overtime yong laro. Kung healthy lang tong main man ng Lakers na sina Lebron at AD, may kalalagyan sila sa playoffs kasi nandyan na si Hachimura at Thomas Bryant na makakatulong sa kampanya nila ngayong taon.

Warriors -3.5 @1.94 vs Wolves

Para bukas, kailangan ng Warriors ng mga panalo para aangat sa standings kaya sure ako na mananalo sila bukas hehe.

Good luck to us all.

Muntikan na din yun kabayan, pero parang kahit papaano ay pumapabor din minsan ang panahon sa Lakers dahil masyado na silang bogbog netong nakaraan Grin Mas maigi naring manalo sila at tayo hehehe. Congrats sa mga nakasabay sa ML, matamis-tamis din yon.

Kabayan, sasabay ako sayo dyan sa Warriors (-2.5) dahil halatang di kakayanin ng Wolves na talunin sila. Di pa naman sure pero parang ganun na rin haha. At sabayan ko pa sa Thunders (-6.0). Goodluck!
2187  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue - WBC and WBO 122 lbs bout - May on: February 01, 2023, 05:59:47 PM

No official date yet but it will be in the month of May. The venue is in Japan and it's the first time that Fulton will fight outside the USA.
Hopefully as soon as possible all of us who are here can see the date/day/month of boxing between Naoya Inoue vs Stephen Fulton.

Fulton has to be convincing if he wants to win this fight, I mean, it will be held in Japan, so the judges might favor Inoue if this will go to the judges scorecards. Inoue is known for knocking out his opponent early, so it's not expected to reach the judges scorecards, but just in case though.

Well, there were many robberies and controversial decisions as well in the US which favors their own fighters. And I haven't heard of a robbery decision in Japan that's regularly hosting many world title fights yearly.

I have nothing but respect for Stephen Fulton for taking the fight in Japan. Inoue even if he is the challenger is the A-side since he is a 3-division and was a former undisputed champion. So Inoue deserves the homecourt advantage. The officiating in Japan should be fine unlike in South Africa and Thailand where the visitor needs a KO to win.

That's what makes Japan shine from the rest of countries here in this world because apart from the fact that they have a competitive people especially in the world of sports, they also have a good conduct and you can expect that the people living in that country are really honest that's why they got a good image. Surely, they wouldn't want to give their nation a bad name just for the sake of getting some advantage.

Apart from that, yes, Fulton deserve some credits for visiting the country of the challenger of his belts as that took some guts. We all know that the holder of the belts have the say where they want the fight to happen but this scenario is somehow different because the fight will be more profitable if it's going to be hosted by Japan.
2188  Economy / Economics / Re: Is taking a loan/debt addicted ? on: February 01, 2023, 05:35:56 PM
Well, I have to clarify that personally I have never had any loan or debt in my life so this thread has nothing to do with my experience but intends to find out how people in loan/debt deal with the problem. Let's say you take loans from a bank and sometimes for whatever reason, you can not pay the debt on time, then you borrow money from other channels. Sure this works for a certain period but later bad things may happen, you have to postpone the payment and struggle with finances again. Isn't this a vicious circle ? How would you deal with the problem ? I am all ears.

As they say, you can't correct a mistake by committing another mistake. Well, I'm not saying that taking a loan from an online platform or bank is not a wise thing to do, but those funds should only be taken and used for emergencies only or some other important things that needs urgency. But taking a loan just to get your wants even if that's really not important isn't a wise move because those loans got interests entailed with it and in every due you failed to pay will make the interests worse, and hence, why some people will borrow just to pay those loans and end up in debts again.
2189  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: February 01, 2023, 05:11:23 PM
I should have taken the handicap for the Bucks, but I'm fine with the results. Not as big, but it's a good start for this week, hehehe.
A good start indeed. I hope it continues and to me as well. It sucks to see many losing bets and I hate chasing losses, it adds stress.

9 games tomorrow guys, place your bets guys.
Detroit Pistons vs Washington Wizards - Washington Wizards (-5.5) Gafford is questionable to play. Although I think Kuzma, Porzingis, and Beal would suffice to beat the Pistons. The Wizards are hot at 6th winning streak. They have to continue to 7 and climb the ladder to the 8th spot of the East.

Memphis Grizzlies vs Portland Trail Blazers - Memphis Grizzlies (-5.5) After being defeated 5 times, Grizzlies gained their confidence back by defeating the Pacers, time to go back to winning more. Desmond Bane is questionable to play.

Boston Celtics vs Brooklyn Nets - Boston Celtics (-8.5) Simmons and Warren are out.

San Antonio Spurs vs Sacramento Kings - Sacramento Kings (-7.5) Kings all the way!

Minnesota Timberwolves vs Golden State Warriors - Golden State Warriors (-4.5) The Warriors are feeling it again, complete roster except for Iguodala who we know doesn't really play much even at a healthy status. Put Wiggins on Edwards and that will stop their offense.

I am thinking about combining the Orlando Magic ML into a small parlay to enhance the multiplied profits. It's risky but might be worth it if they win.
Good luck everyone.

While it's easy to say not to chase our losses, we ourselves sometimes can't keep from chasing it and it's truly hard because we really wanted to recover from those losses and taste some victory. I guess, that's a matter of how strong our will and patience is to keep ourselves from chasing.

Anyway, I'll be tailing some of your bets mate. You and @Yugin seems to be in a good spot these days Grin

Celtics -8
Kings -7
Warriors -2.5

Tama babawi nalang ako bukas, hehe.. Hindi ko nga natingnan na hindi pala maglalaro si PG and Leonard, kasi kung naglaro sila, sure ako close yung laro, maaring matalo sila pero hindi ganon kasakit.

Para bukas naman, marami ang laro kaya hindi tayo mahihirapan pumili nito.

Raptors ML
Hawks ML
Dallas -8.5
Warriors -4
Magic +10
Nets -9, hindi maglalaro si King James.

Kursonada ako sa Warriors -5.5 @2.0 vs Thunder kabayan dahil hindi masyadong malaki yong spread at alam naman natin na kailangan nila lahat ng panalo para makaangat sa standings bago mag-all star break. Medyo unpredictable lang sila pag nasa bahay sila ng kalaban pero tiwala pa rin ako sa kakayahan nila. Wala pa ring Andrew Wiggins para sa Warriors, yan ang dahilan bakit mababa lang yong ATS.



Swak ang pasok mo dito kabayan, 8 points ang nilamang ng Warriors enough para macover yung binigay na partida, hindi ako nakanuod ng mga laro kaya sinilip ko na lang sa replay, napaganda yung odd mo dyan x2 yung taya mo tapos exciting pa kasi humabol din talaga yung OKC nung second half buti hindi tumigil yung Warriors sa 4th at nakipagsabayan talaga para ma secure yung magandang kalamangan.

Okay na din at hindi na masyadong maalat kaysa nung nakaraan na bet na nakuha ni kabayan @Botnake, sayang lang dahil hindi nya sinabayan ng ML ang Magic pero naintindihan ko naman dahil di rin madaling kalabanin ang Sixers ngayon lalo na at naghahabol sila sa standing. Panay hataw sila pero naisahan parin ng Magic.

3 out of 6 si kabayan, at feeling ko di magtatagal at hahataw din to para makabawi hehe.

Lakers ML at Cavaliers -5
2191  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: January 31, 2023, 07:10:33 PM
The problem with refs making a mistake like that is the fact that nothing really changes. I have been watching NBA for over 20 years and seen them make a lot of mistakes, either in important situations or even in not so important situations, the time Tim Duncan got ejected for laughing is still in my mind, there was something done about that eventually though.

However, the thing about the current situation is that, if you do not fine the refs and suspend them for a long period of time for making such a game deciding mistake, then what is stopping them from doing it again? Or another one doing it? That is why refs needs to be held accountable a lot more, and we need a lot more refs to replace them if they make a mistake.

I really couldn't agree more with you about this sentiment. These refs should be held accountable for their mistakes so that they will refrain from doing such things and start to get disciplined to only call an action that is needed, and I believe their work got easier because of the Replay Center. Some referees are already old, and I am certainly inclined that there's a long line of queue in their line of work.

Small update para sa mga inactive Coins users na katulad ko [alam ko maraming ganyan dito]:
  • Simula January 30, magkakaroon ng ₱15 monthly maintenance fee para sa mga inactive accounts at tuloy-tuloy nilang sisingilin ito hanggang maging zero yung Peso balance natin [hindi pa sure kung ano ang gagawin nila pag wala tayong Peso balance]: Coins.ph to Charge ₱15 per Month for Inactive Accounts
Based sa link, ang inactive account ay yung walang transaction activity sa loob ng 12 months. Siguro kung ma drain na yung laman ng funds baka i deactivate na nila ang account o maging dormant tulad sa bank?

Marami na kasi satin ang hindi na gumagamit ng coins.ph dahil hindi na sya convenient. Pero kung in the future gusto pa rin natin gamitin ang kanilang serbisyo (just incase) at ayaw naman natin makaltasan ng charge dahil sa pagiging inactive, gamitin nyo na lang kahit minsanan ang inyong account kahit sa pag load.

Mas okay rin na i active natin kasi baka biglang mawala ang mga alternative natin. Meron tayong Binance p2p now, pero hanggang kailan ito, alam naman nating pwede maghigpit ang BSP at mag implement ng same rules sa coins.ph, or or i ban ang Binance sa Pilipinas dahil hindi ito nag comcomply ng rules and regulations ng BSP.

Taya lang tayo ng taya, basta may bankroll pa, pwde pa yan.

Bukas meron tayong apat na games lang, may maagang laro nasa 2 AM dito sa timezone natin.

Heat vs Charlotte,  Mukhang gusto ko ang Heat -6, kasi parang wala ng gana mag laro itong Charlotte, palagi nalang natatalo.
Indiana vs Memphis. Okay rin ang Memphis kahit -9.5 pa, balik home court na sila at medyo pangit ang road games nila kasi konte lang napanalo nila.

Clippers vs Cleveland, -5 ang Cleveland, pero of course Clippers pa rin ako, ML na para masaya.
Pelicans vs Bucks.. Desperado tong Pelicans, losing streak it, try ko handicap lang.

Isa lang ang nanalo sa picks mo, parang minalas ang pick mo sa clippers, hindi mo siguro natingnan na hindi maglalaro ang mga star players, samantalang ang Cleveland Cavaliers ay kumpleto silang lahat.  Pati Bucks, walang kalaban laban ang Pelicans, kahit desperado silang manalo at basagin nag losing streak nila, hindi pa rin nila kakayanin kung undermanned sila laban sa dating defending champion.

You have to choose whether you'll save it or invest it.

The moment you decide to invest in bitcoin, you are not saving money anymore as that amount could lose its value in the long run. Yes, I'm talking about the possible negative result as investing does not guarantee profit. However, if you are willing to risk, I'm sure you know how to manage that risk and you'll only invest what you can afford to lose.

Thing is, if you are just saving it in your piggy bank, inflation will hit you, but you still have that money when you need it.

We have now the second game which i think a blow-out win by SMB as they lead by a big 29 points at the end of the first half.

No ML market so far in the bookies that i'm looking right now but the spread is 25 which i think is very high but i do think that SMB will cover this one as they are playing with high confidence at the moment.

Taking now SMB -25.5 @1,85, hoping SMB won't ruin my Sunday night hehe.

The game is not entertaining, I was thinking that Phoenix will try to play hard to win, but it's currently a one sided game, SMB fully dominated the Phoenix. I'm not taking the live bet but good luck to you, if I will be tempted would bet on the +25.5, but usually my instinct is wrong.  Grin
2197  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: January 28, 2023, 07:04:19 PM
Milwaukee Bucks and Indiana pacers went off huge tonight. Between the 2 teams there was 272 points scored. That's pretty high IMO. Bucks got the win 141-131 and Giannis was the top scorer with 41. We see a lot of scores in the NBA in the 100s-120s range but 140 points in a game is just amazing.

Ya, that was a crazy high scoring game. We’re seeing more and more of those this season as the pace in the NBA continues to quicken. I’m sure we’re only a few years away from seeing a 200 point score in a game.

The Splash Brothers also went off tonight in a pretty high scoring game. Steph Curry especially had a great shooting night and nearly a triple double. Safe to say he’s feeling healthy.

Splash Bros. got a combined score of 64 points and that's more than half of the total points that the Toronto Raptors made throughout the night, moreover, there were four other guys in the Warriors roster who contributed a double-digit score that really helped the team achieved a win. It was a close game because the Raptors doesn't want the gap to go wider but it's still evident that the Warriors owned the game since the 1st half as they owned and led every quarter of the game.
2198  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Errol Spence vs Keith Thurman on: January 28, 2023, 04:49:09 PM
In any case though, all fingers point to Errol Spence and his camp regarding the fall out, and it seems that he is not denying it isn't it? because we just hear him and his team says that they don't need Crawford because they have cemented their legacy already. But as fans we think otherwise, we need to see this fight happening as we want to see the best fighting against each other, and that is the history of that division.

People already know the truth and it's evident enough why all fingers are pointing towards Errol Spence Jr. and Al Haymon, the fact is, the played Terence Crawford for months and let him expect that a fight will materialize. They haven't thought about their move well that someday it would backfire at them as they can't just hold those belts forever even if they got some influence.

Spence's camp are just hiding behind the reason that they already cemented their legacy, therefore Crawford won't be needed anymore. Honestly, when did they cemented it? After Ugas fight? Grin They can't honestly fool everyone with that kind of shallow reasoning.

Yes, I think they are and probably this is what they have brainwash Spence for thinking that he had a good career and cemented his career at 147 lbs without fighting Crawford.

I would agree that he has a good resume, no doubt, but there is one name missing in that record and that is Terrence Crawford.

So in any case he beat Thurman, still though there is this huge question in front of him for not fighting Bud.

I really doubt that Spence cemented his legacy already. He owns 3 belts in the division but he is still not considered the lineal and Ring belt champion of the division because the rule is for #1 and #2 to fight each other for the vacant Ring belt and be considered lineal. I say Errol Spence's name will never be considered in the Hall of Fame with his current accomplishments. If Spence has no plans to face Crawford then he needs to become undisputed at 154 or at least conquer 2 more divisions in order to cement his legacy in the Hall of Fame.

While Terrence Crawford has more than enough to be inducted into the Hall of Fame. In reality, it is Crawford that do not need Spence when it comes to legacy. Crawford is already a 3 division champion and was the first undisputed champion at 140 in this 4-belt era. But Crawford clearly wanted more to his legacy as he is also aiming to become the first ever 2 or 3-division undisputed champion in this 4-belt era. What's stopping Crawford from that chance is Spence and his close friend Jermell Charlo the undisputed champion at 154.     

That's just another way of Spence from saying that he is indeed scared of the risky situation that Crawford will bring if he agrees to fight him in a unification match. He can say all he wants and that his legacy is already cemented but no one will believe him because people know the truth and he will be a laughing stock in the whole boxing industry for running away from Crawford and this time, bringing the fight towards the super-welter so that he won't have the chance of losing his belt because Thurman is still a threat.

Akala ko OT na din eh kasi sumablay yung unang attempt ni Klay buti na lang nabawi nila yung ball possesion tapos yung cut ni klay nakagulo ng depensa kasi balak sana mag double nung bantay ni Poole, ang galing din ng pagkakapasa ni DiVincenzo saktong sakto ung timing nung wala sa balance ung pantay ni Poole kaya late ng konti ung paghabol sa tira ni Poole.

Nanaig talaga yong experience ng Warriors sa larong yon kabayan, kung na-overtime yon malamang ay matatalo yong Warriors kasi na-eject na si Curry dahil sa pagtapon ng kanyang mouthpiece (weird na rule, kasi ngayon lang ako naka-witness ng ganon) sa galit na namintis ni Poole yong tres nya hehe.

Naswertehan ako ngayon dahil nanalo yong Mavs kahit na wala si Luka, akala ko talo na hehe, 3-2 na ako sa linggong ito.

Grizzlies -2.5 @1.85 vs Wolves

Must win para sa Grizzlies para maputol yong losing streak nila.

Oo nga eh, napapansin ko na rin nitong mga huli na nagiging sensitive na yong liga ngayon kabayan or di kaya mga referees lang? Dapat bigyan din nila ito ng pansin dahil mas pinupuna pa nila ang di mahahalagang gestures ng mga players kaysa i-focus nila yung attention nila sa laro mismo dahil may iilang tawag na medyo unfair na.

Sasabay ako sa'yo sa bet na yan kabayan, kamuntikan na nga yung laro nila laban sa Warriors at ngayon nga ay nasa ika apat na magkakasunod na talo na sila. Palagay ko naman talaga ay makakabawi na sila dito ng husto dahil di hamak na may lamang sila dito kaysa sa Wolves.

Dagdag ko na rin ang Warriors -5 @ 1.91 vs Raptors

Ang sama ng laro kanina ng Grizzlies, parang hindi yong kalaban ng Warriors noong isang araw, akala ko pa naman ay mapuputol na yong losing streak nila pero salamat kabayan at nakasabay ako sa Warriors mo kahit papaano ay nakabawi kanina at kaunti na lang yong talo, yong sa odds difference or juice nalang ng bookies ang talo ko hehe.

Yong Warriors naman mabuti't umaarangkada sa fourth quarter, ang dikit ng laro hanggang third quarter.





Halatang-halata na parang nawawalan sila ng gana kaunti dahil muntikan na din kasi yung Warriors game at malamang naibuhos nila yung effort nila dun kaya sa kasamaang palad, wala silang magandang performance sa laro kanina laban sa Wolves. Pero okay lang kabayan dahil okay naman yung Warriors bet natin, sapul na sapul, napapa isip nga ako eh na sana sinabayan ko ang ML hehehe at nag live bet din ako sa OKC pagkatapos ng 1st half, underdog parin kasi sila kaya sinabayan ko na.

Kings -2 vs Timberwolves at Bulls -2.5 vs Magic

Hindi ko pa nasilip games for tomorrow. Dahil balak ko lumabas at mag casino ngayon gabi bwhahahaha.

Parang maganda ang Sabado nights mo ngayon kabayan ah Grin Good luck kabayan.

It appears that Oscar dela Hoya is showing his real agenda for this fight. It is not money, he wants a trilogy of fights between Tank and King Ry to collect the most money hehehe. This is something similar to Dan Larimer's ICO for EOS where the ICO was collecting money from the community for 1 year and became the largest ICO to have a token sale with $4 billion collected hehehehe.



“This is the best fighting the best, and I strongly feel that when you have a performance where you shine, where you look good, and you fight with passion, fight hard, there is no loser, there’s no loss.

“I see this fight as an even fight. Obviously, my boy Ryan Garcia is going to win, but I can see a trilogy taking place. It’s that type of fight because both guys are undefeated, both guys are young, and both guys are passionate about what they do. Both guys have a huge fan base. This is a trilogy.

That might happen or not really, but first let's talk about their first bout as talking about a trilogy is quite premature as of this time because I really doubt that both of them will just agree with Oscar Dela Hoya and imprint their first defeat towards each other so that a trilogy will indeed happen in the future. Let alone Tank Davis who already got a wide vision towards his goal and not intending to give his first defeat over Ryan Garcia where he got most of the advantage.
