2201  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Eimantas Stanionis vs Vergil Ortiz Jr - April 29 on: February 19, 2023, 11:58:20 PM
Here is Vergil Ortiz highlights, knock out of all of his opponents,

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwSzeQzgLfI

Obviously, you can see and even hear the power when it touches his opponents whether on face or in the body. The way he punch them though in the body is very different, it's like a straight right, not the one that we usually show like a left hook to the body. And I think the straight might be more devastating because his opponents will usually take a knee and can't get up in time.
I agree Ortiz is kind of scary in how he delivers his knockout punches I already posted Stanionis will be tested here because he has not faced someone like Ortiz, Stanionis can deliver an upset why not, but for him to get that upset he'll have to go through a lot of pain and take a lot of risks.
Vergil is the top guy to beat in the welterweight he should be in the spotlight because of his style and power, there are a lot of existing fights to consider in the welterweight division if only promoters will agree to let them fight the best in that division, hopefully, this year we'll see an Ennis - Ortiz- Crawford- Spence fights for the undisputed king of welterweight.

Stanionis style might closely resembles Kavaliauskas, tough rugged fighter from Lithunia, but obviously, Ortiz just smothered him with power punches that he has no answer and seems to quit the fight until referee Laurence Cole stopped the fight because Kava doesn't want to fight anymore because he has taste the power of Vergil already.

So might be the same strategy for Vergil, put up a show with his power and it's hard for Stanionis to counter. He should be like hit and then hug Vergil to not get him his momentum. But it's going to be a boring fight for us.

This is an old debate, hehehe, but for me, right now I'm a old head and I wanted to use my desktop or laptop more often. But currently, I'm leaning towards playing on my mobile now, I don't know maybe I was influence by my wife because they are now playing all online and they are having fun with it.

So I'm just curious as to what is the buzz all about and I found out that they are playing slots the other night. So I immediately jump on and deposit some and play the game. But I get tired and hand it over to my wife to continue to play. And then the next night, I still continue to play with the same capital because we didn't lose everything. So maybe I'm addicted again but this time playing slots on mobile phone now.  Grin
2203  Economy / Economics / Re: Economic implications of a US-China-Taiwan conflict on: February 19, 2023, 11:33:30 PM
There are rumors that the US will enter a full-scale war with China once it invades Taiwan in 2025. If we thought the Russo-Ukraine war was coming to an end, then we ain't seen nothing yet. Such a catastrophe within the world's biggest economies (US and China) could lead us to a very dark future where the global economy collapses for good. After all, the US is the biggest economy in the world followed by China. Things will get worse if Russia is still at war with Ukraine by the time this happens. It seems like both China and Russia have ambitions to rule the world, so maybe a "New World Order" is upon us?

They have been in trade wars for years now and obviously, it has an effect on both countries. But if they started a full scale war then everyone will be affected, specially countries in the South East Asia (specially I live in Philippines wherein our government are still undecided, but it looks like the newly government will be in the US side), they will be torn apart.

For the global economy, it might hit harder as well, it will disrupt the world economy and it's hard to recovery if the war lasted for years.

but we will all know which sides are countries are going to take here.
2204  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Tank Davis vs. Ryan Garcia betting and discussion (May, 2023) on: February 19, 2023, 10:58:07 PM
Unfortunately, that's how the world works, rich and influential people can get away with it.

Anyhow, it's really hard to fathom that, but we might as well stay away from that issue and just again, hope that fight will happen. And probably this is one reason why so many people hate him like Bradley who also wishes that Ryan Garcia will knock him out cold so send him a rude awakening. Yeah, that ankle issue or him in a wheelchair could just be marketing ploy to sway people's opinion on him. But the question is, will it influence us? I don't think so.
I do not want to watch a criminal that has bribed his way out of jail if we do I hope to god that Ryan Garcia knocks him out in the 1st round. Why do so many fighters at the top of their career like Tank end up breaking the law and it is not small laws it usually includes them hurting and nearly killing people and then they get away with it. He should be stripped of his boxing license and not competing any more but boxing is corrupt and just want to make money from him and I bet they use this as a way of promoting the fight. It is disgusting what they do.

Again, I don't want to engage on such debates as what they do outside of their boxing career.

I do not think we should ignore the issue because we are part of the problem. He deserves to be booed out of the ring win or lose. He hurt a pregnant lady and he just run off. That is disgusting and shows his cowardice. I hope Garcia feels the same way and has extra motivation to knock him out and I hope he gives a post win speech about how disgusting it is that the boxing commission continues to support criminals.

Just like Floyd though, he has been booed inside and outside of the ring, but we can't deny his success.

So in any case we don't like the boxers, so it's better to bet against them, in this case go with Ryan and with a knockout win, specially if he will be the underdog in this fight. It will be very much satisfying if he is going to knock Tank Davis, it could break the internet with meme's.

But if by chance Davis won, then Tank haters will grow more.
2205  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue - WBC and WBO 122 lbs bout - May on: February 19, 2023, 10:45:35 PM
It's Fulton's time now to break that momentum and protect his thrown. We will see who's going to stand tall after the fight.

Although he is the champion, it seems that we are hoping he will be able to survive against Inoue. The fight between Inoue and Donaire was quite different because Donaire was the challenger, while here, it's Inoue who is the challenger, but people view him as the champion.

The previous performance of Inoue makes us think that he is somehow invincible in 118lbs and possibly in 122 lbs that is why many thinks that Inoue had a better odds of winning than Fulton.

There is a huge pressure on Foltun because the majority of the fans do not believe he can beat the Monster, but let's see what happens during the fight night

Indeed since he is defending his title against the monster Inoue. But honestly, I think the pressure is on both party.   Pressure on Inoue is the expectation of the boxing fan that he will be explosive and beat Fulton via KO.  So if we are talking about the pressure, each boxer do have them.

Right, he is really invincible at 118 lbs, unifying all the belts and beat everyone and clean up that division. So obviously, it's a high expectation for him to do the same at 122 lbs starting with the champion in Fulton.

Pressure could be more in Inoue, but I think he can handle it, he is more prepared, and it seems that his mental focus is also maturing. That's why it is a very dangerous combination for boxers, not only did they have the skills, but if their mind is really zone in, this elite boxers are hard to beat.
2206  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to run a bounty campaign? on: February 19, 2023, 10:32:35 PM
how to become a bounty manager i want to run bounty campaign so how can i run campaign please tell me

As a newbie? I doubt that any project are going to hire you right away to run their bounty campaign, it's not how it works here. You need to build your reputation and obviously you even don't have any experience, so I would say forget about it.

And why you want to become a bounty manager in the first place? it has a lot of responsibilities, and I don't know if you can cope up with it, so the pressure is there. Then you might work with some scam projects that don't pay and you will be the one going to be hit hard by complains from bounty hunters themselves. So that's my advise mate, if you really wanted to become one, build your reputation but it's not a easy task.
2207  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin is getting ready for $25K, How? on: February 19, 2023, 10:21:39 PM
still waiting now mate ,  i thought we are ready to break but still now? we are being hinder to 24k https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/ this is still what I wanted to  achieved now to consider at least to sell? or to buy more because what I do believe is that once Bitcoin reached 25k then w will be  having 30k and more just this year.
but till now from your post? almost month after yet we can't see a clear vision of this being broken.
There's a strong resistance and selling pressure on 25k point which the price had able to touch it but didnt really last that long which means that bears arent really that over and now trying out to make suppressing the value but it turns out that it is really going back again and trying to touch it up once again.We dont know on when it would happen but at least the price is trying to cling up once again.
We are really that eager nor excited to see that 30k price once again and would shoot up all way over.Its been a while to see these numbers but im expecting that these things
would happen in the bull run.

Yes, selling pressure at that price range and after that big resistance in front of us as we are hovering around that price range in the last 2 days. Nevertheless, I don't see the bears can't take a hold of the market, still on the hands of the bulls. And there are plenty of time this February to hit that price, so I will not be surprised if bulls are going to push in.

As for the $30k, I think it might take some time. We need more momentum first. Buyers too have some pressures and could be tired specially in January wherein we have a huge 40% uptick. So let's see first that $25k again and maintain, that is the magic number for this month, in my opinion.

Read this news all over the social media pero personally hinde ko pa sya natratry but this is a good progress if available na sa nakakarami. Maganda si Gcash and very convenient, though hinde perfect when it comes to security but i hope they will improve more kase maraming issue with gcash especially yung mga nahack and nawalan ng pera sa gcash.

For now since nasa testing period palang ito, will wait muna sa mga future updates and if secured ba talaga ang crypto using gcash. Meron naba nagiimbak ng crypto sa gcash dito? Possible naba ang option na ito?

Huli na pala ako hehehe. Madalas kung tingnan yung tab na yan sa Gcash. Pero mukhang hindi ako kasama dun sa selected users,  Grin. Definitely, tayo ang panalo dito, again, mas maraming options mas maganda para sa ting mga crypto enthusiast.

At isa rin factor to kung paano lalago ang crypto sa ting bansa dahil ang laki na ng sakop ng Gcash at sa tingin ko mas marami ang merong apps na to kesa as Coins.ph. So widely available sya even sa ordinary citizens na baka magbalak mag invest. Tama rin, antay antay muna tayo ng mga updates nila sa susunod.
2209  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Nonito Donaire vs Alejandro Santiago for WBC bantamweight title on: February 19, 2023, 09:59:05 PM
However, Donaire is now fighting a different opponent, so we'll most probably see the power that we're talking about in this fight.
That's guaranteed. The fact that Santiago does not have the KO power of Inoue means this fight might last longer if Donaire does not knock out Santiago. We all know that Donaire is still hungry for a win; he wants to be at the top again. And now that Inoue is not a hindrance anymore, he will certainly not waste this opportunity to come back at the top.
This will be an exciting match up for both boxer, as they try to get the belt being left by Inoue and with Donaire, this is a big opportunity to reclaim a championship title so better for him to start working on this and be more aggressive. Santiago is young with a good record as well so Donaire should not be complacent here if he wants to get another win for his record. I’m rooting for Donaire here, I wish him a good fight and will be ready to place a bet for Donaire.

We will see if Donaire has still the power inside the ring, now that Inoue is out for this weight division.

As per majority of speculation, he still has the power, it's the question on if he can still pull the trigger, and I would say yes.

I have the feeling that he wants to retire as a winner once and for all. Couple more years, and he's likely to hang his gloves.

Yes, as most of the high level boxers, they want to quit while they are on top, although the biggest contributors though is that boxers losing fights and can't compete and pull the trigger is the biggest reason why they don't want to do it.

I am rooting also for Donaire on this match, despite his age, because he is quite active so not hard for him to prepare for this fight.
Bookies may favor Donaire on this one, his current ranking  whether on The Ring, WBC or WBA is also higher than Santiago.

For sure we all gonna root for Donaire to win again and become the oldest bantamweight champion and his chances are good, just matter of execution and with his experience, he might do it again.
2210  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Errol Spence vs Keith Thurman on: February 19, 2023, 09:49:34 PM
It's more of a comeback fight and he should be showing us that he is ready for the big time show. Unfortunately, many of us see a different Thurman and made us conclude that he is no longer in his prime or somewhat getting old.
Every boxer sometimes have a not-so-satisfying performance, but we also have to remember that Errol Spence also struggle against an opponent, and that is against Porter when he only won via split decision, many of us think it's because of the injury he committed during a car crashed that's why he is not 100% yet, so it's the same story here. To stop this speculation, I think this fight should happen soon.

I think it's a satisfying fight for Spence, it should be a unanimous decision win against Porter, it was hard fought but I don't think that Porter wins enough round against Thurman.

We can all do our speculation, I'm not sure how you score the fight between Porter vs Thurman? do you see it the same as one of the judges who score it for Porter? How do you score that fight? You not satisfied with his win then?
2211  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: February 19, 2023, 09:39:05 PM
Wow! We had great fights this weekend. I was late to realize that the Luis Nery vs Azat Hovhannisyan fight was promoted by GBP since the last time I saw Nery was fighting at PBC. Now Nery will have his 2nd title shot in this division and is waiting for the Inoue-Fulton winner. Nery is really vulnerable in this division.

In the other exciting fight this weekend, I'm so glad Mauricio Lara finally become the champion that he deserved already when he beat Josh Warrington earlier. Former champion Leigh Woods might activate the rematch clause though and will force Lara to return to the UK again. 

Yes, mate it was another great boxing war, between Lara and Wood at London.

Here is the high-lights of the fight: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ka0O4iPp32o. He wanted revenge so he needs to activate his rematch clause, but he took damage in this fight and maybe it will be the same results. Lara doesn't care where the fight will happen again, if it is UK then so be it, the crowd and at festive atmosphere of the British fans though.

He was knock down on un steady legs, but he wanted to continue, however, Ben Davison, Wood’s trainer, threw in the towel and I think it was the right call as he safe his prize pupil from further beating.
2212  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: February 19, 2023, 09:28:35 PM
Mac McClung took home the dunk contest trophy and rightfully so. He also had the dunk of the night with a 720 which was absolutely ridiculous. That was easily the best dunk since Aaron Gordon’s under the legs over the mascot dunk. This year’s contest was a big step up from last year’s. Hopefully next year we get to see Zion Williamson do something special…
Who the hell is this Mac McClung guy? I have never seen him before, but that dude just came in and bust the whole slam dunk contest open. I know that it is not looking good for the other players, we do not have any good dunkers in the league that is willing to participate anymore due to getting way too much backlash, so only the ones we see accept, but this dude could have outdunked anyone in the entire league.

Three point contest was a bit of a let down as well, nobody really played all that well, many players missed a ton like Randle, and I feel like Dame was obviously the best one, he deserved that one. I am not going to even talk about skills one, that one was terrible to watch.

I believe he was originally signed by the Lakers to be a replacement for Alex Caruso but didn't live up to being able to perform as well as Caruso.  This was the beginning of some terrible moves that make the Lakers go from NBA Champions to not being able to make the playoffs.  Getting rid of Caruso and Dwight Howard was like ripping the heart out of that team and thinking you could just replace them with scrubs like McClung and Montrezl Harrell.  I know Dwight Howard has his locker room issues, but getting rid of Caruso is a mistake that the Lakers are hoping to correct this offseason, as there are rumors they have been trying to get Caruso back, and they should.  Him and LeBron were amazing together.

Speaking of Caruso, I think the Lakers didn't intentionally want him to leave but because of his good performance, he has every right to ask for a good pay which unfortunately, the Lakers doesn't want to because of luxury taxes so they have to gave him up, just like what the Warriors vs GPII situation, he as a defensive gem for them, but signing Poole and Wiggins with big contract, their role players in that championship run were affected, although that good news is that GPII is back with the Warriors.

It was the Bulls who's the first one to sign him in the NBA, 10 day contract, after it expired, he goes again to G League become a Rookie of the year. Then signed with Lakers in a 2 way contract, then declined his qualifying offer.

🦉 Owl.games 🦉 Web 3.0 Crypto Casino & Sportsbook - BTC-Metamask-Walletconnect

Is everything OK regarding their site and token?

The owl.games online casino site continues to work, if you look at the site's traffic, more than half of the users are from Spain, the rest are mainly from North America, the average attendance is 30,000 per month. As for the OWL token, it is also alive, although the trades do not have such a large volume.
That's what owl is.if they left the forum, then this should show their attitude to the community, or maybe they just considered it not productive.

This is the biggest crypto gambling base casinos and it's a wrong decision to leave this community, locking their thread doesn't help as well.

And the accusations are piling up so it's not good for them, they started good though, not sure what happen to them and specially that they have their token, they should at least answers here.

Nevertheless, it's their decision to close their ANN thread and we can't do anything about it.

I do hope that you have watch the fight between Nery vs Hovhannisyan because it was really a war that everyone is expecting of this fight. Nery was so tired in the fight but he was able to weathered by storm by stopping Azat out in the 11th round. Round 10 was a war, Nery dropping Hovhannisyan in an 8 count.

And with this win, I think he is in the position for a Inoue vs Fulton war and this is what he wanted, during his post fight interview.

In the other co-main event, WBA Continental Americas Super Middle champ Shane Mosley, Jr defeated Mario Lozano in 10 rounds.

Tignan natin after nitong all-star game kung ano magiging tadhana ng Mavs kung meron ba talagang magiging impact si Kyrie sa lineup nila or baka sumalo lang sila ng problema ng Nets tapos iiwanan lang din sila ni uncle Drew.

Masakit sa kanila yan dahil marami silang sinakripisyo para kay Irving. Sa ngayon, mukhang failure talaga kasi hindi pa nananalo ng laro sina Luka at Irving na magkasama. Pero baka naman pagkatapos ng all-star break, gaganda na ang chemistry nila.

Sa mga moves nila, alam nilang isang malaking risk ang ginawa nila, kaya pwedeng matalo rin sila kung hindi mag-work ang desisyon nila.

All-Star na pala, anong team tayo, mga kabayan? Team LeBron ba o Team Giannis?

Medyo mahirap mamili kabayan siguro sa actual na game na ko pipili kung sakaling tataya ako kasi hindi na katulad nung dati na talagang may nagaganap na competition ngayon kasi more on pakitang gilas na lang at wala naman ng depensa na nangyayari kaya mahirap din sabihin kung sino ang mananalo medyo may laban laban ka kung sa live mo aabangan at tatansyahin yung tatayaan mo.

Talo ako kay Team Deron hehehe.

Pero baka hindi na muna ako tumaya ngayong All-Star, nood nood na lang at syempre enjoy yung weekend, eh heto naman ang goal talaga nito. Pasayahin tayong mga fans at syempre tong mga NBA player eh break muna sila sa competitive basketball at sila sila magpakasaya narin.

Miss ko rin yung old format na East vs West. Pero kelangan ng NBA na gumawa ng bagong format so team Lebron or team Giannis naman for this year.
2220  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Figueroa vs Magsayo WBC Interim Featherweight Title (March 4) on: February 18, 2023, 11:43:17 PM
So far the result of the poll, there are many Magsayo believers here the poll is not even close Magsayo has a wide edge against Figueroa, lets's see what the odds will be in sports casinos if Magsayo will be a clear favorite but based on both fighters' records and style of fighting it's going to be a very close fight as both fighters badly need this win to keep their title campaign alive.

Don't rely much on any boxing poll here especially involving a PH boxer because most boxing enthusiasts came from PH. Whether a PH boxer is up against an obvious strong opponent or not, the PH community will always be biased toward their fellow countrymen to show support.

Technical analysis-wise, Brandon Figueroa is a real threat to Magsayo. Even though he doesn't have any experience yet fighting at 126, he has the advantage that Magsayo is not used to fighting. I'm referring to Figueroa's height and reach. Magsayo is not that used to fighting an opponent like that and the first one he fought with that trait is Rey Vargas whom he lose.

Experience-wise though, Magsayo surely knows that he is up against something big. They already know what to do and what's left is how to execute it.

Ph boxers have huge supporters here not just for Filipinos but because we know that like Manny they are always determined to win and always eager to prove themselves in the ring.
Magsayo has losses in his past matches and it will surely be another challenge for him to beat Figueroa who is also a strong opponent. He must grab his chance to make a firm name in the industry. He should know how to counter Figueroa's moves who is also an aggressive fighter.

It's going to be a huge challenge for him, it's a step up, and I would say that this could be more tougher than Rey Vargas fight. In here he has the pressure now to make a statement win and the boxer that he is going to fight is really relentless in his attack and believed that he can beat Magsayo.

So this is very important for his Filipino fans, to show that he is still one of the best 126 lbs. This is another ticket for him and could he his second reign to become a featherweight king.
