221  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A gambler takes his own life after a loss. on: December 14, 2023, 12:10:15 PM
Question: Is there any amount lost that can make you commit suicide?

Life is priceless so there's no amount that you lose for you to commit suicide. We don't know the real score here, maybe he has another problem that is why he made that action but if really the cause is the gambling lose then sooner or later he will commit suicide. Assuming that he is still alive now because he won, maybe some other time when he loses, he will take his own life and that is what is happening to him now. He has suicidal tendencies i think and it just happen that it coincides that he lost big amount in gambling.

Going back to the main topic, I see this like a similar scenario of the Warriors game where they are up early but ending up losing the game.

Just look at the 3rd (41-20) and 4th quarter (33-19) scoring.

That 3rd quarter alone TNT were able to come back in the game already, and going to the 4th quarter, we know that NLEX was already in trouble as the energy of TNT is so strong that they want to end the game with a dominant passion, and they did.

Things went sour for NLEX in the second half of the ball while everything that TNT threw went in the basket in the third and fourth quarters. I lost my bet but didn't regret as i think Bolick will be the biggest factor if they won that game.

Meanwhile, my prediction is happening, SMB Beermen will be parading a new import, 6 foot 10 Bennie Boatwright. He will be replacing Ivan Aska after their game with Ginebra Kings as per report.

SMB won't win a game if they stick with their import Aska if Junemar is sitting in the bench due to injury, too small, they need a rim protector and a rebounder as a replacement for Fajardo while he is out for a while.

Heat vs Charlotte, Miami ako -6.5 @1.81.

Congrats bai, ganda ng pili mo samantala yong Spurs ko ay talo pero muntikan ng hindi ma-cover yong spread. Pinick ko yong Spurs kasi akala ko hindi maglalaro sina Lebron James at Anthony Davis pero si LBJ lang pala yong hindi naglalaro.

Hintay muna ako sa pick mo bai para masabayan kita kung ano man yong pupustahan mo kasi baka mag-losing streak na naman ako.
224  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Inoue vs Tapales for Unified Super Bantamweight Title - December 26 on: December 14, 2023, 10:24:00 AM
Yeah, but he can turn that into motivation and shows many people wrong about him. But you can't blame those boxing fans though, I mean with the way the Inoue is destroying anyone, it's not that he beat them thru score cards, but he just steamrolled everyone with vicious power and knockout.

So all is now on the shoulder of Tapales, to again, show his fans and his critics that he is not afraid of the monster and he see himself being him in his own backyard. It could be thru the judges score card or he caught Inoue and knockout him out.

The good thing about this fight for Tapales is there is no pressure on him as he is the huge underdog of this fight. Yeah, he can turn that underdog status as a motivation to do well for this fight, easy to say but i know it is very hard to do but he ain't called "The Nightmare" for nothing.

The only chance for Tapales to win is to win by KO not a decision win as seldom a challenger wins via decision in Japan.

If Inoue couldn't hurt Tapales early in the fight then that slim possibility to KO Inoue might come to fruition when the Monster is already tired in the championship rounds hehe.
225  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Inoue vs Tapales for Unified Super Bantamweight Title - December 26 on: December 13, 2023, 11:45:32 AM
I've seen some people bet big bucks on Tapales as they said that the odds will get lower the closer we are to the date of the fight. I know it's a shot in the dark but it's still possible that Tapales might snatch this win off of Inoue. Then again, when it comes to skill and overall punching power, Inoue is just levels above Tapales, that I think betting huge money on the Filipino to ride the odds is just insanity.

I have to agree with you there even though I'm with Marlon Tapales here to win the match. I do not even want to touch that fight with my money. It's insane to go with a decent amount of betting for Tapales but if that's a people way to support him, then good luck on their bet. Juicy odds indeed but it won't give me a temptation to bet on that. As a bettor, I preferred to bet for Inoue winning in a specific round or how he would win in this fight.

But again, since I'm a PH fan of boxing, I don't feel comfortable placing money for Inoue because I support Tapales here. Although like you said, we have to accept that Inoue is above anything against Tapales. I don't see an upset win here by Tapales but I'm hoping it will happen.

That's the sentiment of most Filipino boxing fans here, including me. Inoue is way too talented for Marlon Tapales and you are right, an upset is very unlikely here as most of the factors that lead to a win were on Inoue's side, a knockout is the only chance for Marlon Tapales' hands to be raised as the winner.

But the good thing here is that when everything is against a Filipino boxer, that's when the time that boxer shines, hope it will be time for Tapales to fail the expectation of everybody here. Just like Pacman when he fought Barrera for the first time, no one believed that he would win but he shocked the boxing world with that KO win.

Third period now and Converge is leading by 8 if they continue that or maintain the momentum that handicap can be cover easily kabayan. I failed to monitor the game and missed that chance to follow you, "bakas sana ako" ahaha but moving forwad, the next game will be tough. As like what you mentioned, a debut for Bolick he might get something that will allow his new team to lean on him in terms of their offense,

Though we can't conclude that, as everything is still going to depend on how the game will be executed. I'm looking forward to seeing Bolick fit himself with his new team and try to bring that kind of scoring ability, helping their import.

At last, Converge has barged into the win column but not without a scare. I thought that it would be an easy win for Converge but DYIP was very stubborn that they don't to be left behind. Tiongson's 28 points in the ball game were gone to waste, no thanks to the import of Converge who tallied 32 big points. At least my bet won hehe.


For the second game, i will go live betting as Bollick will be having his debut as a member of the Road Warriors, he might give some headaches to coach Jolas.

Thanks for bringing up this good news, I didn't know that Bollick was already signed by the NLEX, they really need someone like him who knows how to attack the basket. I think I'm going to be on the NLEX moneyline, they are 3.30 now, I'm sure they would be able to give the TNT a run for their money.

As my first game bet won, i will go for broke here lol, i will bet for NLEX ML @3.20 now. For sure Bollick will contribute huge to the offense of the Road Warriors and he will bring it all to prove that he is worthy of the NLEX management's trust on him.

Share ko lang player props ko ngayong araw. Baka sakaling may gustong mag tail dyan welcome na welcome. 13 games ata ngayong araw pero ito lang munang lima kung saan sa tingin ko tama ang prediction ko.

Jalen Green last 3 games hindi naka 3+ assist baka ngayon maka 3+ assist na magbawi.
Bojan B. Naka two consecutive na 21+ pero baka ngayon mag under 21 sya since kababalik nya palang naman.
Itong sin Clink Capela mukhang consistent naman 11+ rebound sa last 3 games nya.


Medyo malas yong mga picks mo kabayan ah, 0-3. Grabe si Bojan B. naka-40 points pero talo pa rin sila laban sa Nuggets. Bawi tayo bukas kabayan.

Buti nalang at nanalo yong Magic ko kontra sa Cavs at na-cover pa yong spread. Akala ko makahabol pa sa huli yong Cavs, buti nalang hindi nai-shoot yong huling tira nila kaya ayon, cover ang spread.

Mavs ML @2.06 vs Lakers

Pagod pa sigurong tong Lakers sa kanilang celebration kaya sa Mavs na muna ako.

Naka tsamba ako kahapon, parlay, dun ko ni post sa main thread, 6.90 nakuha ko, 4 games hehehehe.

May bali balita na baka daw hindi makapag laro is Luka dahil sa injury nya last game. Tapos may ugong ugong rin naman sa Lakers na baka magpahinga is AD at si Lebron dahil kakatapos lang nilang manalo.

So kung ganito ang situation eh tao tao na lang at may advantage ang Lakers,  Grin.

At kaya siguro na dedehado sila sa betting line ngayon kasi baka nga wala talaga si Luka at si Kyrie.

Congrat sa panalo mo sa parlay kahapon bai, mahirap ipanalo yon, buti at naka-jackpot ka.

Grabe yong laro kanina ng Mavs at Lakers, akala ko matatalo na yong bet ko, wala halos makabantay kay Davis sa ilalim mabuti na lang at maganda yong laro nina Luka, Hardaway at Exum. Hindi pa naman naglalaro si Kyrie Irving at tyempo rin na nag-step up yong mga kasama nila.

Spurs +2.5 @1.95 vs Lakers

^^Para bukas yan, baka hindi maglalaro si AD at Lebron bukas kaya ganoon yong odds.

Sana panalo pa bukas para tuloy pa rin ang ligaya hehe.
228  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022–23 PBA Commissioner's Cup on: December 13, 2023, 07:19:58 AM
Back to the action.

2 games will be played today.

First game DYIP vs Converge. I'm leaning on the converge here as they have a good chance of breaking their losing streak against a team that aren't so strong. While on the 2nd game, we have TNT vs NLEX, and since NLEX has been struggling so far, I'm not backing them this game, instead TNT is going to be my pick. I might just parlay the TNT + Converge bet.

Yeah, this is a winnable game for Converge as DYIP is also on a losing streak. On papers, Converge is a stronger team than DYIP and they also have a new import which i ithink is better than Vodanovich.

Converge -3.5 @1.98 vs DYIP

For the second game, i will go live betting as Bollick will be having his debut as a member of the Road Warriors, he might give some headaches to coach Jolas.

I have read the news that Mikey Williams as per Homer Sayson that he's trying to reconnect with the Talk N Text. What can you say about that? I guess that the TNT will still give him some space since he's a no doubt good addition to their roster. Although they're not at the bottom of standings now but still, they're one of those that don't have a good standing as of the moment. And the trade also about Bolick, I thought that he's already out of the team since he's able to sign into two different leagues.

I have also read this one on my social media feed. If that is true that Mikey Williams is trying to be back to the TNT Katropa then good for him as he now realise that no salary for months now is hard for him hehe. The problem for him though is that MVP pride is high and per Jolas statement, they can live without him. But somehow i like him to be back in the PBA rather playing in another league in Japan or Korea because the guy has talent.
230  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who should quit, and why? on: December 12, 2023, 12:56:50 PM
Hey house someone need a few clips here, don't know if a post of this exact nature has been discussed though.

In a situation where the both spouse are gamblers. Husband gambles, wife gambles, how can both of them manage the situation in terms of finance and the family affairs especially when children are now involve so that the time both spends on gambling doesn't affect family moments and affairs in general.

Would it help if  one of the couple quit for the other and if that's the case who should quit for who.

You've got a very complicated scenario, to be honest as I seldom see husband and wife gambles. With this scenario, I think their children are not well taken care of as their time is focused on gambling.

If one should quit, it should be the wife so she could take care of their household, besides a woman who gambles a lot is not common and considered immoral in our country, don't know in your place but here in our place, a woman gambler is tag as irresponsible and not a wife material.

Checking on the rankings, Magsayo has broken into the top 10 with this win. He is rank 7th in WBC wherein the champion is O'Shaquie Foster. Looking at familiar names here: Robson Conceicao ranks number 2.

So we should imagine how him and Robson will clash, definitely contrasting style, but who knows, maybe Magsayo can score a upset if they fight.

But there are some unfamiliar names in the ranking, maybe that should be Magsayo's target in the top 5 and again, maybe he will have a good chance to defeat them and obviously ranks up.

The good thing about Mark Magsayo is that he is under MP Promotions which takes good care of his career. Though not yet on the top 5 of each sanctioning bodies but somehow he will be there in a few fights due to the connections of Sean Gibbons. I do agree that he still needs a tune-up fight before fighting for a belt even though he was amazing in his last fight.
233  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022–23 PBA Commissioner's Cup on: December 11, 2023, 12:30:18 PM
Sorry to those who believe that Magnolia will cover that handicap. Undermanned SMB surely can't overplay Mags but they manage to keep the gap close until the game ends.

I'm quite surprised to see Magnolia not covering the spread as they usually do. I thought that after that massive upset in the hands of NorthPort, SMB Beermen will play lousy but it seems that they give Magnolia a good fight until the end.

Two consecutive losses now for the Beermen and they are now in the middle of the standings while Fajardo is out for at least a month, i think they have to change their import as Aska is no good if there is no Fajardo dominating the midddle, i mean he can't be a "go-to-guy" if the Beermen needs to score points. I would not be surprised if Aska will be replaced in the coming weeks, that NorthPort lose was unacceptable as far as I'm concerned hehe.
234  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Regis Prograis vs Devin Haney (9th of December) on: December 11, 2023, 11:28:13 AM
As for Prograis, he's turning 35 next month. He's still planning to become a 3-time world champion but I doubt it will happen unless he lands a Hail Mary punch. It's okay to lose but he seemed clueless against Haney and before that, he also had another poor performance but he managed to escape with a split decision. He's probably done, maybe Ryan should fight him next and exploit what's left of him.

Maybe Ryan Garcia should fight Prograis first before eyeing a fight with Haney. Two successive bad performances for Prograis but I think it won't be an easy fight for Garcia if ever the two will meet in the ring as Garcia also got an unimpressive win against Duarte.

IMO, Haney will have second thoughts on whether he will fight Garcia as the latter is taller than him and heavy-handed and also quick which would pose problems for him. That lucky punch is one thing that Haney avoided and Garcia has that so I think he won't pick Garcia unless the price is right.
235  Local / Pamilihan / Re: NBA discussion, betting and etc. on: December 11, 2023, 10:55:52 AM
Mukhang sa finals magandang magkamali ulit hahaha... masayang pagkakamali!

Hindi ako nagkamali sa Finals kabayan dahil binusisi ko na talaga yong pusta ko hehe. IMHO, batang-bata pa yong mga Pacers at wala silang katapat kina Davis at Lebron. Foul trouble at tuluyang na fouled-out si Turner na siyang dumedepensa kay Davis kaya nong nawala na siya ay easy work nalang kay Davis sa ilalim, hanggang foul lang yong bumabantay sa kaniya.

Magic -2.5 @1.94 vs Cavs

^^ bet ko para bukas, parang babawi dito ang Magic sa homecourt nila.

What do you think? This is an insanely move on oneself to stop addiction, something done right? Would you do the same if such is possible in your country?

Weird strategy but as what you said that he succeeded on stopping himself to gamble then that was a heroic move on his part because the main objective has been achieved and hope he is now happy on his gambling-free life.

I just wonder on how he did it, i mean banned himself from winning big amounts in casinos. For me that ban move is like talking to a doctor to treat his addiction in gambling, gradual withdrawal from it as abrupt may cause mental concerns on him.
237  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Regis Prograis vs Devin Haney (9th of December) on: December 10, 2023, 05:06:06 AM
@bbc.reporter, you are right, should have been 1.01 ML odds for Haney. Prograis was so overwhelmed by the good footwork of Haney in the early rounds that he could not figure out how to cut the gap between them as Haney also got the power in his new division. But one thing ordinary fans couldn't appreciate is that he lacks the killer's instinct. He could easily knockout Prograis as the latter's legs were no longer there.

So what's next for Haney now, Shakur or Ryan Garcia?

238  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: December 10, 2023, 03:59:22 AM
To all Filipino fans out here, just a heads up that Mark Magsayo will be fighting this weekend against Isaac Avelar of Mexico.

This will be a debut fight for Mark Magsayo on the 130-lbs division. As of now, no bookies have covered this fight but i think odds will be out two or one day before the fight as usual.

Got a feeling that Mark will be having a hard time in the super featherweight division because for me he is small for this weight category, just my thought but i want him to win as usual.

https://www.ringtv.com/661844-mark-magsayo-makes-junior-lightweight-debut-against-isaac-avelar-on-december-9/
But I guess he can't go back to 126-lbs no more, that's why he really need to go up at 130-lbs even if it's going to be hard for him at this weight class. And another interesting fight because it seems that his opponent could be a journey man already.

And as what we call it, a cherry pick fight for him or at least showcase his skills at this new division. And who knows, maybe he could be small here, but he will have to adapt and change his strategy as the now that he is in a new division.

Yeah, there's no way back as he needs to step up to push his career, we don't know what will be the fate awaits him but just like what you menetioned even if it's a cherry pick for him the chance still good to showcase his skills from there he may take some risky fight if he manage to win this one an create his path inside this new division that he's taking.

Weekends is nearly coming if you are a fan then better to save some spare coin/money for Magsayo's odd.

I don't know with you guys if you have bet for Magsayo but i'm very busy that i didn't find the time to browse for the odds, hope you did bet for him as Magsayo is back guys with that brutal left hook knock win over Avelar. That's one scary knockout to see if you are a family member of Avelar. But one thing is for sure, Magsayo power is still with him in the 130-pound division.

I got the same bet because I can't bet against the Lakers again after their game against the Pelicans. I avoided the handicap because the bet can quickly lose if they suddenly can't hit more than half of their shots, similar to the Suns game a few days ago. And as much as I like the Pacers to win because of their impressive underdog run, they probably won't have an easy time running their explosive offense against this Lakers team that is improving on the defensive end.



Though the game is not yet over but it seems the Lakers is too much for the Pacers. Davis dominating the paint causing Myles Turner to be in foul trouble is huge since no one in the Pacers bench could guard Davis better than Turner I think.

Lebron is again in beast in the third quarter as he is fresh since he has not played so many minutes in the first half due to foul trouble so congrats in advance kabayan for that ML bet.

1 - Gaano katagal ka nang naglalaro ng sports betting?
Sagot: Sa crypto sportsbetting ay almost six years na pero bago nag-sportsbetting na ako bago ko pa nakita ang forum na to so over-all, mga 10 years na ako sa kalakarang ito.

2 - Ano ang pinakamasamang karanasan mo sa sports betting?
Sagot: Syempre yong mga talo ang pinakamasamang karanasan ko sa sportsbetting, yong talo ka lang ng 0.5 point ang pinakamasaklap doon.

3 - Ano ang pinakamagandang karanasan mo sa sports betting?
Sagot: Sa ten years ko na sa sportsbetting ay marami na din ako masasayang moment, isa na doon yong nanalo ako na 25K pesos sa finals ng Boston at Warriors na walang puhunan kasi makakuha ako ng parehas na sugal offline at times 2 naman sa online, arbitrage kung baga, sana nakuha mo kung ano ang ibig kung sabihin.

4 - Ano ang maaari mong maipayo sa mga baguhang naglalaro at sa mga nahihirapan sa sports betting?
Sagot: Sa mga baguhan dyan, aralin mo muna ang laro kasi mahirap yan kung pusta ka lang ng pusta at wala ka naman alam sa laro. Kaya sa boxing at basketball ako kadalasang pumupusta dahil mahilig ako sa boxing at naglalaro din ako ng basketball kaya alam na alam ang pasikot-sikot nito pero natatalo pa rin kaya hindi madali to para sa mga baguhan.


Salamat OP at dinala mo rito sa lokal natin ang ganitong klaseng activity para naman makilala natin kahit man lang ng kaunti yong mga kababayan natin na mahilig sa sportsbetting. Pasensya na at tuyong-tuyo na sa smerit kaya wala na akong maibigay sa iyo.
