Early picks ko, baka makasilat, di bali ng hindi ko makita ang game.

Clippers -9.5
Detroit Pistons ML
Bulls ML

Congrats kabayan, pumasok ang Clippers and Bulls ML mo.. Marami sigurong nadali sa game na yan kasi I'm sure karamihan sa Warriors tumaya. Pati na rin siguro sa Nets, nanalo na naman ang OKC na underdog, sarap ng ML.

Salamat kabayan, hindi na perfect pero ayus lang, at least 2-1 tayo, kumita pa rin. Anyway, bet na naman tayo, walang katapusang bet, maraming games bukas kaya ang hirap palampasin.

If the story is actually true, then that's a fantastic result for the player. Still, I think this is purely about advertising he wants to make for the sportsbet site.
Why would someone post how much money they won on a gambling site? If I had won that much, I would prefer to keep it to myself. I certainly wouldn't want other people to find out that I would have won that much money. You can only risk it that way. Well, maybe people think differently. 1.4 million is a lot of money, by the way. Will gambling sites actually pay that to players?
I think this is all about advertising the sportbet because I don't see any need why someone will post the amount of their winning online, any way he may not be at risk posting in this forum since no one knows each other personal identity.

But then this is a good win for the ops after a ling time of gambling without winning such an amount.

Let's just appreciate the OP's post and understand him because he's just saying his side. And it's rare to see this kind of post that contains actual big figures for betting in a specific month. Besides, I don't really see such risk here even if OP will post that he had over a million dollar bet. Just wondering though, OP, did you really get upset because you haven't got the $100 Bonus bets? I'm just curious about it because it's just a tiny amount compared to what you've been giving to them.

I was not able to bet on the early games.

Los Angeles Lakers vs Houston Rockets @ 2.75

Los Angeles Lakers (19-24) will host the Hoston Rockets (10-33) tonight at Crypto.com Arena. The Lakers lost yesterday by a point against the Philadelphia 76ers and will be rearing to win this game.



I like this pick actually because everyone is probably thinking that Lakers would win tonight because they are up against a weak team. Both teams are very desperate, Lakers so desperate to improve their ranking to qualify in the play-in, while the Rockets so desperate to break their cold streak.

This specific bet just shows and proves how really poor is the Lakers now because even me, I almost took the same bet because the Lakers aren't really that consistent enough to continue the lead and close the game despite showing an improvement to their stats in the past weeks.

We only have 4 games later, maybe some bettors here will just take a pass and rest for a day but for me, I'll take and bet 3/4 games later.

Toronto Raptors ML @ 2.60
Brooklyn Nets -5 @ 1.91
Denver Nuggets -6.5 @ 1.91

Good luck @Botnake, dami niyan ah..

Maganda naman mga picks mo pero masyadong marami, parang di ko yata kaya ang ganyan, kulang din ang funds ko for gambling sa ganyan karami. Dalawa lang actually nagustohan ko diyan, ang Jazz ML (dahil kay kabayan Clarkson), and Hawks ML, the rest, pass muna ako, saka nalang sa live betting kung meron pang matira.

Maaga pala laro bukas, itong Jazz aabot pa ako sa 2nd half.

I'm expecting a close game in 4th quarter when Ginebra starting to miss their 3s and Bay Area slowly closing in but Gin Kings is able to maintain a 2-digit lead. Bay Area struggles in the free throw line until 4th quarter. Jamie Malonzo's points in 3rd quarter really helped Ginebra a lot. I'm expecting more from Bay Area. I'm kinda disappointed, there's no much help from other players. Still, Congrats to bettors of Ginebra.

Bay are just playing their game, they don't have a bad game actually, it's just that Ginebra are suddenly becoming a very good team, they do it at the right timing, their shooting percentage is very high, and not only Brownlee who are contributing, the locals are also giving their best to have a good lead.

Yes, Bay Area were able to trim the lead of Ginebra, courtesy of Myles Powell, but that charge was still short though, Ginebra still win the game.

M. Fultz 4+ assists / F. Wagner 1+ steal @1.90

I fully expect Nuggets to take care of biz against Orlando and regardless of the score (blowout or not) Fultz and Wagner should see 25 to 30 minutes each.  Nuggets are giving 4th most assists to opposing point guards on the season, Fultz is averaging just over 6/L7 and has covered 4+ assists in 7/L7.  F. Wagner is averaging almost 2 steals /L7, with 4 steals against Utah just the other day. Nuggets are giving 2nd most steals to opposing power forwards...looks like the perfect matchup, or should i say mismatch.

Let's see which one of these two brings this prop down...Lol


Orlando needs to come back in the 2nd half, otherwise, Nuggets will just easily blow them out.

Thus far, F. Wagner has no steals while M. Fultz only had 1 assist.
But this game is far from over, they still have a 2nd half, they just have to play better to maybe surprise the Nuggets and break their win streak.

Clarkson is indeed playing like an all star, he is now a go to guy of the Jazz, even without Lauri Markkanen on the floor, the coaching staff are still choosing him to produce in crunch time because he is a clutch player. He dropped 38 points last night, that's a serious statement because it's against Embiid and Harden, actually, it looks like a batter between Harden and Clarkson, and see the level of Harden, he was a former MVP.

Jazz will miss the opportunity to have a player that will make the team better if they will let go of Clarkson, I guess he would stay if they will give him his desired range.

Congrats sa inyo guys, okay na rin yan kahit konte lang ang prize, at least libre. hehe.

Hindi masyadong exciting ang laro, akala ko pa naman dikdikan ito at single digit lang ang lead, gusto ko nga mag OT para kabahan mga nanonood, pero wala eh, Ginebra talaga ang nag dominate, saka yung import ng Bay Area, limited lang ang playing time, sa 2nd half na tumira na malayo na ang lamang ng Ginebra.

Maganda rin ang naging laro ni Malonzo, mamaw sa rebounding at napaka aggressive niya, best game niya tong game 7 IMO.

The organization itself will find ways to connect him to Inoue. Marketing both fighters is no longer hard, as they already have that trash talk connection, just need to add more ideas to bring a huge fire.
The two boxers once faced each other for a fight that was scheduled for 2021 but has been canceled due to the virulent covid pandemic at the time, so it will not be difficult for companies/organizations to reunite the two in a spectacular fighting event. Casimero has been aiming to fight Inoue after concluding his fight against Ryo Akaho, so I hope Casimero goes straight to Inoue for his next fight. I'll be waiting for official information about his fight schedule at the beginning of this year.

That is the main reason why I'm still hoping and rooting that Naoya Inoue will have his first stop to check the waters first before facing the WBO holder, Steph Fulton, and will face John Riel Casimero instead for his debut in super-bantamweight division. It will be a nice welcoming year present for the fans all over the world who are rooting for the cancelled fight last 2021. Like you, I'm waiting as well for Inoue's final announcement because he already gave an early teaser that he will be having a fight this coming April or May.
2230  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: January 14, 2023, 06:14:20 PM
I guess it's too early as there are no official news from Utah itself. Although Clarkson says he want to stay with the Jazz if given the chance, but we will see. Since they are still in the rebuilding phase and maybe thinking how to make the team better.

Luka showing his magic again with another triple double to boot with their double overtime win against the Lakers.

Good support from C. Wood, and Tim Hardaway, this is what Luka needed, Mavs that can bring offense and help him in the scoring load.
This is what the beauty of these rumors, despite having no official announcement, everyone is making and giving their opinions on what's good and bad potential outcome for such.

Saying that he wants to stay in the Utah Jazz is just all about words and if that's what really desires to be but with his market value and if it can't be helped then, he'll for sure going to find another team that's willing to give his desired contract not unless he's got the heart to stay for Jazz.

People are even rooting for the Utah Jazz already to participate in the upcoming playoffs because despite of the fact that the team is still rebuilding, they are showing some good signs from having a consistent performance since the season started and still getting some improvement in every games which is quite unexpected from a team that is supposed to be tanking this season. Hopefully, the Jazz can adjust with Clarkson's price for at least a year to see where will this team go.
2231  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Artur Beterbiev vs Anthony Yarde on: January 14, 2023, 05:50:14 PM
Looking at the votes ? Artur seems to be the dominant in this fight but looking at their stats? I'm not sure there are something special when they both have that long list of winning and also via knockout .

so I assume that this would be fairly judged and I don't wanna give my votes to anyone but Draw lol. because I am not interested in betting in this match but I will watch the replay .

Not seems because Artur Beterbiev has always been dominant throughout his fights and based in stats, he's the one who got the prettier record as aside from being an undefeated, he also got a 100% KO rate which makes him the KO specialist among all KO specialist in the boxing industry right now. Not to underestimate Yarde because I know he's a decent boxer who got a good record too but against Beterbiev? I doubt he can make a difference. And don't worry, I'm quite positive that this fight will be fair and square.
fair point mate , But what I do believe is that as long as the fight still not happening each boxer has the chance to improve and find the weakness of opponent .
and yes have just watch Artur's fights last night and it is impressive wins so there is a  big possibilities that he will dominate this fight and put Yarde on the ground .

That's correct! Both of them has an equal chance to prepare for this fight and they still have a lot of room to process everything so that they will be battle-ready at the day of their fight. Also, we aren't that sure enough that Artur Beterbiev will really have his way because upset can happen anytime even if he's the heavy favorite although the chance is just slim. But since we're here in this thread discussing some possibilities and to give some of our speculation then, I'd give mine and I'll side with the champion, it's really hard to go against him here because he owns the division, literally.

Yarde views this bout as his biggest fight but Beterbiev just see the opposite thing because for him, this is just a regular title defense. The latter's big fight is yet to come because this is not yet the unification fight.

And that's what Beterbiev also said in an interview that I read, both will trained very hard in this fight 100% of hard sweat in the gym. But at the end of the day, it should only be one winning.

Yarde though says that Beterbiev is too slow and he is fast, so we will see how fast Anthony is against a supposedly slow Beterbiev. In response though, Arthur said that he is training differently, so I assumed that he is working with his speed as well. So I guess majority is win Beterbiev in this fight, the dude is absolutely monster knocking out his opponents. And unless he becomes old overnight, it will be very hard for Yarde to win this fight even if it is going to be held in his home court.

Surely both Yarde and Beterbiev will have an intensive training to prepare for this fight and watching some of their recent fights to see their movements and their style of fighting in different scenario. But that's the thing, Yarde is already barking and showing that he got a lot of balls to face the knockout monster, so we will see what kind of fast he's talking about. Maybe he's fast when it comes to running around the ring Grin joking aside. Yarde may be fast but does he got what it takes to defeat a monster because speed won't be enough as Beterbiev is also known to eat punches just to get a big swing in return.

May game pala ang Warriors bukas, road trip na nila and Spurs ang unang makakalaban nila.
Warriors -8 ang bet ko bukas.

Another game naman, gusto ko ang Clippers -1.5 dahil mukhang di maglalaro si Jokic, questionable pa now.
Di na siguro nila i risk ang health ni Jokic, total number 1 naman sila na.

The Denver Nuggets revealed that Nikola Jokic has been downgraded to questionable against the Clippers with right wrist injury management.

Nasira parlay ko dahil sa laro na yan haha, akala ko talaga tuloy-tuloy na at sa wakas ay papalarin na sa linggong ito. Nagustuhan ko din ang Clippers laban sa Nuggets kasi pinagpahinga na muna nila si Jokic pero yun nga, di din pumayag si Murray at Porter Jr. na basta-basta nalang sila matalo porket wala si Jokic, at may Gordon pa na napaka active.

Knicks vs Wizards - win
Spurs vs Warriors - win

2233  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Errol Spence vs Keith Thurman on: January 13, 2023, 01:05:26 PM
We just don't know who's afraid, is it the boxer or the promoter.

Legacy can still be built even under a promoter. Look at where Pacquiao ended up.

However, there are boxers that like a pure legacy and the best example of that is, Terence Crawford. But look at what happened, they are having a hard time dealing with big names since he left Arum's background.

Spence Jr. on the other hand is more on building a business but still cares for legacy. They can settle a fight against big names but only if the price is right in favor of them. Not just being disclosed to the public but I think the slice of the pie has something to why their supposed fight with Crawford is not being materialized.

Then why did Pacquiao left Bob Arum and build MP Promotions afterwards if Pacquiao can really build the legacy he's after?

I think Pacquiao had established his career when he left Arum, it is also possible that Arum hinders Manny on who he wanted to fight since we all know, promoter does control the opponent of a boxer.


Also, Terence Crawford really wasted his years under Bob Arum because I reckon that he could've got 1 more belt under him if he climb to another promotional company.

Sadly a boxer cannot do anything until their contract with the promoter expires.  I think it is too frustrating to a boxer when the promoter don't make a deal with the opponent the boxer is rooting for.

Now, it's too late because the 3 other belts are in Spence's possession and their camp doesn't want to give Crawford a chance. Let's just stop about that cut issues because we all know that it wasn't really the case because Crawford will still accept as low as 30% cut just to materialize the fight, but what happened is that they let Crawford wasted almost a year of waiting and gave some hopes that a fight will really happen.

It is not too late I think, if someone gets the three-belt from Spencer then Crawford can challenge that boxer.


Right! Pacquiao indeed already established his name in the industry before he left Bob Arum but I guess that's not enough because a superstar like Manny Pacquiao won't be leaving such promotional company if he's being handled well and gave what he wanted sometimes. We know that the promoter will always take an easy journey or will take a fight that his boxer got more chances because it's business after all and a defeat will decrease the boxer's value, although, there are some things that a boxer wanted and they wanted their voices to be heard.

Well, you got a point. It's really not that too late because Keith Thurman or Boots Ennis will likely have those belts in the future but the question is, will Thurman face them? We aren't that certain because their camp is so silent and doesn't really wanted to disclose some information related to the fight.
2234  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: January 13, 2023, 10:45:06 AM
Love to see him either with Fulton or Akhmadaliev for this year. Unless Fulton will go up in weight class and vacated his belt.

Not sure about that but is there any rumor that Fulton will move up weight?

He is waiting badly for Inoue even prior to The Monster being the undisputed bantamweight champion.

Aside from him expecting a clash with Inoue, seems better to also see them in unification with Akhmadaliev.

There was indeed some rumors about Stephon Fulton that he will climb the upper division in the past but as of now, I'm not reading some articles about him anymore that is addressing his climb. So, I guess he won't be vacating those titles that he's holding and he can still fight with Inoue soon enough if the latter's camp will go directly after him to have a bite at those said titles. I'm thinking that if ever they will face each other, it'll be in the 2nd quarter of this year because Fulton still got an upcoming fight, right?

Kabit yung parlay at singles ko, hehehe. Maaga nga pla ang mga laro bukas, interesting yung unang games na Sixers vs Pistons. Parang gusto ko tong Pistons kung walang Joel, para dehado hehehe, ML baka maka silat, @2.90

Raptors at Portland, parehas na nangangailangan ng panalo to, medyo laging kapos, pero sa Portland ako na dehado ulit ML @2.28. Yan na lang muna, alas 4 satin yan, baka pag gising eh makadale kahit isa.  Grin

Medyo malas ka kabayan, walang pumasok sa pick mo, lahat talo. Ako naman sa 76ers ako pero ML lang, kaya parang talo pa rin kasi isa lang pumasok sa bet ko. Medyo mahirap na mag predict ngayon, minsan puro underdog nananalo, minsan naman favorites.

Pero as usual, bawi nalang tayo ulit bukas.

Meron lamang 6 games bukas. Try ko itong Bulls ML, maganda win streak nila, kaya baka naman.

Sibak ang dalawang dehado ko hehehe, naka bawi naman ako at nag parlay agad ako ng Memphis @1.44 and Nets to win@1.75 ML = 2.52 so ok na rin pangbawi at pang taya para sa ngayon.

Parang trap ang mga lines sa ngayon ah, lalo na yung sa Boston at Bulls, skip ko muna to.

Knicks vs Bucks, - magandang laban to, sa Knicks ako ML @1.92.

Nuggets vs Lakers - Lakers 12.5 @1.98

Kings vs Magic - Kings -6.5 @2.03

Saklap nitong taya mo kabayan alat lalo na yung sa Lakers, 13 points yung nilamang ng Nuggets talagang ang hirap mapredict ng mga laban yung tipong akala mo eh dikitan yun pala magtatambakan tapos yung akala mo naman na tambakan sila naman itong dikit ang magiging kalalabasan, pero syempre talagang sumusugal lang tayo kabayan.

Bawi na lang ulit bukas magandang abangan yung pagbabalik ni Curry kaya lang anlayo ng spread masyado di ko alam kung sino ang wala sa Suns kaya double digit ung handicap para madoble mo yung taya mo.

Oo nga eh walang lumusot sa mga taya kong dehado lately. Buti na lang nagpahinga rin ako sa pagtaya at may inasikaso IRL.

Trip ko mag parlay ngayon sa umpisa ng linggo ko ang pick ko eh

Bulls -1.5 @1.96 + Bucks -2.5 @1.70 = 3.33 odds.

Saklap nanaman hehehe, lupit ng Wizard nalusutan yung Bulls ewan ko ba kung bakit kinapos yung Bulls kahit anong pilit ni Lavine wala talaga pag kulang ung kumpyansa sa mga kasama nya, sayang yung Bucks sulit na sulit yung mga nag handicap sa kanila, ito mahirap sa parlay alam mong nganga pag natalo isa sa mga napusuan, bawi na lang ulit hehehe..

Oo nga eh, medyo okay naman ang takbo ng laro nila hanggang ng haltime pero nung malapit ng matapos ang 3rd quarter, nag umpisa ng humabol ang Wizards dahilan na naibaba nila ang gap bago mag simula ang 4th quarter. Kalaunan ay di na talaga kinaya dahil si Vucevic lang at LaVine ang tanging nag sumikap para manalo sila. Hirap nila tansyahin ngayon dahil laging questionable si DeRozan. Bawi nalang ulit sa susunod kabayan, papanig din sa atin yan pag nag parlay ulit tayo.

I am cheering for the Joker to get his 3 straight MVP award
Other candidates are equally deserving to win but I also have no problem if Jokic gets it again. It probably helps that he appears to be a likable person and focuses on team wins rather than individual stats.

Jokic might win but I like Luka to have his chance this season. Unfortunately, his team is not as good as Jokic.
Luka's shoulder has too much weight in it. Christian Wood became inconsistent. Dinwiddie is the same. Tim Hardaway on his normal 3-5 three points per game. Something must be changed, like when Brunson was around stepping up his game, and Luka was benched because of injury.

I vote for Jokic too. It's says valuable and I know Luka is one heck of a valuable player but when it comes to team value, Jokic has the upper hand and it's definitely making their team better as it can be seen on paper as top of the Western Conference. And NBA and fans always rely on stats, that's proven for years. If Doncic wins, I am still at peace. Cheesy I love watching those two players.

Yeah, that is the argument against Luka at this point. Not that argument but he has a weak team as compare to Jokic in the past 3-4 years wherein he has Murray, Porter Jr as a big help for him.

As compare to Luka who has to shoulder everything, he has to play 110% everytime just to seal a win.

So just imagine if Luka can play with the likes of Murray, Porter Jr, for sure he could win and impact the team and probably get a MVP nod from fans.

Yes, I definitely agree. Luka is good, no doubt but he should be needing a reliable player beside him so that he won't be lifting heavy loads every game. Christian Wood seems adjusting again and going on/off which brings inconsistencies to the team because sometimes he's not that reliable enough. Whereas, Jokic got a much easier job because he have those players mentioned in the same team and now, Gordon as well.

Hopefully, this two teams could reach farther in the post season because they both matured and improved. Not that sure though about the Mavericks because Luka will again lift the team at the end of the day.

0/1 for my early bet. Portland Trail Blazers cannot get that lead that they want in the 4th quarter. They got near but the Orlando Magic preserved it as much as possible. 106-109.
I was expecting them to win because they are already in a losing streak and the Magic could be tired. But I saw a different game, Blazers were so bad early, they let the Magic had a big lead, good thing they were able to come back but maybe they got tired in the 2nd half.

My live bets lost too.
Golden State Warriors ML opened @2.00. They tried to make a run in the 4th quarter cutting the lead to single digits but they ran out of time. Good to see their starters back though and creating rhythm before they go to the road.
It's a bad game, Curry return and Suns had no Paul and Booker but they still lose, not good.

Waiting for my 1 win if the Clippers can protect their lead until the buzzer sounds against Mavs. It's not that I doubt them but it's Luka Doncic making magic even if he lacks time.
Congrats on this one mate.

Yeah, all eyes on this huge game for the Warriors, but former Warrior Damion Lee step up for the Suns and win the game for them.

But still though, at least we have seen Curry  back on the floor again, and this could signal that the Warriors will have another good run in their next couple of games. Still not bad for them as they have plenty of time before the all star break.

Maybe but that time they are already above .500 mark at the first half of the season.

Despite of the defeat they got today, it's good to see Stephen Curry cooking in the hardwood again. First day of work, he dropped 24 points just like that and he made that without any signs that he just came back from an injury. That's expected because the Warriors are like that when one of them will be coming back from an injury but in the next couple games, they will be back again and climbing the ladder.

Indiana Pacers ML @ 2.67 and Chicago Bulls ML @ 2.00 .. Good luck fellas!

Bookman was told to come back the next day to discuss her winnings, but when she asked an employee what she'd be walking away with, he responded: "You didn't win nothing." The New York State Gaming Commission said Bookman’s machine had malfunctioned, and that she'd actually won just $2.25 (£1.86).The machine had a disclaimer stating 'malfunctions void all pays and plays', and as a result the commission said that they were required by law to give Bookman only what she'd actually won.

Some Casinos are just plain fraudulent. So this woman visited a casino, play slot and won $43million. She took a selfie with the amount displayed on the machine. The casino saw it and told her to return the next day so they could talk about the winnings. Next day she returned. Story changed. She was told the machine had malfunctioned and therefore it was what was responsible for the winnings. They went ahead to offer her a complimentary steak dinner. I got so livid reading this story.

Isn't this just the stupidest reason not to give her her winnings?
Couldn't they have known that their so-called machine was faulty before letting gamblers use it?
How could they do this to her?

Well, Katrina Bookman has enough evidence to prove that she indeed won the biggest slot machine jackpot in US history, so I suggest that she must go ahead and file for a complaint and tell the courtroom that she was refused to take what she have won the other day. I bet that any courthouse in her country will take this case as a prime example to send a message for all the fraudulent casinos out there who would try and trick their clients.

We just don't know who's afraid, is it the boxer or the promoter.

Legacy can still be built even under a promoter. Look at where Pacquiao ended up.

However, there are boxers that like a pure legacy and the best example of that is, Terence Crawford. But look at what happened, they are having a hard time dealing with big names since he left Arum's background.

Spence Jr. on the other hand is more on building a business but still cares for legacy. They can settle a fight against big names but only if the price is right in favor of them. Not just being disclosed to the public but I think the slice of the pie has something to why their supposed fight with Crawford is not being materialized.

Then why did Pacquiao left Bob Arum and build MP Promotions afterwards if Pacquiao can really build the legacy he's after?
Also, Terence Crawford really wasted his years under Bob Arum because I reckon that he could've got 1 more belt under him if he climb to another promotional company.

Now, it's too late because the 3 other belts are in Spence's possession and their camp doesn't want to give Crawford a chance. Let's just stop about that cut issues because we all know that it wasn't really the case because Crawford will still accept as low as 30% cut just to materialize the fight, but what happened is that they let Crawford wasted almost a year of waiting and gave some hopes that a fight will really happen.
