From the Rollbit Blog Introducing Clans: Beat the house with your friends 🎰I see this as a chance to create a clan specializing on a particular sport or game. For instance in Rugby where there are two disciplines: League and Union and the clan members can bring their knowledge to a team, the only thing with Rugby there isnt that many active in the thread, sadly. |

Jabuer run continues in the ladies side, as she defeated Garcia. So she will be the first one to reach the finals.
Swiatek and Sabalenka still battling it out, as usual Swiatek lost the first set. And then storm back in the second to win by 6-1. Start of the third set now, and it seems that she has gotten his confidence back and her momentum. Sabalenka needs everything if she wanted to win.
The momentum has moved into Swiatek, third set got equalled 4-4 and now Swiatek have taken the lead 5-4. Sabalenka have done the best. The serve is with Sabalenka and she can level the point. If not this is going to be the match decider. The pressure is high on sabalenka and made a double fault in the serve. Finally it was Swiatek to win the match 3-6 6-1 6-4. Another great comeback from Swiatek. It seems that he is becoming the Djokovic of women's tennis. Like deliberately losing a set by a huge margin and then coming back strong to snatch a win. So it will be Jabeur vs Swiatek in the women's final. I will be putting my money again on the over for this. I'm expecting that it will be a 3 setter match. And maybe Swiatek is better suited in this kind of game, but it's still very dangerous to really make a huge comeback specially if she faces a tough opponent that has the same mentality as her. And with that, I think that is the biggest factor in this match. She still has the will to win even if she is down 1 set. So Swiatek might have a clear advantage of Jabeur plus the experience. So she will be the favorite to win the Ladies US Open. I am delighted for Ons, she deserves at least to be in the Final. It will be a tough match for both, Ons is a "streetfighter" she will battle until the last point. I'm doing a +4.5 handicap on her @ 1.54. Swiatek is indeed the favourite but its close enough with the betting so far, on Rollbit the odds are 1.51 - 2.46. |

Wow K, I love these "reference" type threads.
I had no idea about the loaded envelopes and stamps concept. I think I only took a
real interest in crypto collectibles around the same time as your Cypher Bills and Bonds.
From the get-go It looks like you were keen on innovation and doing something very different.
And you "good mood giveaways" have been a chance for many to try and grab a piece
of Cypher Hodl collectibles.

With a bump there are still copies of this left for sale. I completed the second design P3 this evening, about 15 hours gone into this one. Just an example of what can be done!  |

In other news, have you guys checked out the new Clans feature? Looks interesting and would love to hear your guys experience with it. I like this new feature of Rollbit, it's pretty interesting. The minimum amount to join the clan is $10 which is not expensive for me. This is another fun way to gamble while earning a percentage depending on your stake. -Snip- Ok so The CLANS addition sounds very intriguing and indeed $10 is a very reasonable amount to join. I have visited my account on Rollbit on my smartphone by I cant find any info on the feature? I can see all the clans though. Where can I find more info? |

I just saw the highlights and it looked like a great match. I planned to watch but it was during the night here - so I managed to catch only a few last games when I woke up.
Alcaraz looks most likely to win it now - if he did, he'd claim the 10th spot in the 'youngest GS winners' list. Since Sampras in 1990, only Nadal won it younger than Alcaraz will be if he wins.
He'll be the youngest no. 1 ever though - with both Hewitt and Safin being over 20 when they reached no. 1.
Both would be terrific achievements and would be well deserved.
What speaks in favor of Alcaraz at this point is the moment when he turned the situation around in the fifth set when he was a break behind. My reason for that is that Sinner also looked extremely strong and stable, but still it wasn't enough to beat Alcaraz. The defense game of Alcatraz partially reminded me of Djokovic. You just can't get the ball pass him without Alcatraz getting his racket to the ball no matter what. Speed, precision, everything was insane by Sinner, but Alcaraz returned it. The guy is fun to watch and given that he is 19 years old, that is a great player in the making for the future. Yea a few days ago I had either Kyrgios or Alcaraz as likely to take the title but the way Tiafoe is playing I think I would question it now, its exciting times for sure. Both semi finals are very close affairs, I would say most people are considering Ruud v Alcaraz to be in the final but anything is possible at this stage IMO. I'm not sure I will be betting on any of the 3 matches remaining. |

Just checking in on "the result" of the Sinner v Alcaraz and I cant believe they are still playing,
and in the 5th set. I see that Alcaraz has a 61% win probability and the 5th set is on serve.
I would love to watch it but cannot, It looks like a right thriller.
I dont have a bet on this one, the odds ATM are 2.1 - 1.75

I'm wondering if I should put money on Argentina?
Well I am, I'm going to back them in the first game, if they win that then the chances of winning the second are slim. If they lose the first game I'll back them again for the second. They have beaten Australia at home and have beaten New Zealand away, it would be such a great feat to be able to beat each opponent at least once in the same season. Here are some stats > https://www.espn.com/rugby/match?gameId=594884&league=289232which suggest they have a chance.
In the NRL finals, I think I'll go with the Eels - from memory they beat the Panthers in both of their midseason games.
Yup I was thinking the same, they did beat the Panthers twice and thats in a mixed bag season for the Eels, but are the Panthers going to find another gear in the finals? |

Going by the Tennis live rankings Ruud is now up to 2nd place! " If " he wins the final he will go into 1st,
thats unbelievable! I didnt see that coming at all.
Khachanov has become it. After Kyrgios was more convincing against Medvedev before Khachanov was more focused this time. This is the first time Khachanov has reached a Grand Slam semi-final. If Rudd wins and he will be #1 was not on my list either. But he played very convincingly against Berrettini and I would not be surprise if he reaches the final. Yea its hard to believe that he is #2 already.
Berrettini was winning 5-2 the third set and he was able to loss all 5 (FIVE) game in a row ! Dismal game by the Italian player, he is strong (some shots are always impressive) but such performance are really unbelievable . Probably Ruud can reach the final, he is playing good tennis and this is not the first good result he achieve this year. I wonder if his fitness levels can be questioned? and you still gave Sinner to cheer for. I think Janick has improved a good bit this year and I would like to see him getting past Alcaraz.
Re: Kyrgios, I didnt realise this but seemingly before the match with Karen he said he was feeling a lot of pressure, I didnt see the match but well done to Karen, he is on a roll |

The global weather is being affected and changing globally because of all our activities.
The worst scenario for people relying on farming is drought followed by heavy rains. The
ground is baked hard and when the rains come there is minimal soakage so the water runs
off the land to lower areas causing floods.
How farming use the land does not help the cause and the effects of the floods hits the local
economy massively from loss of crops, loss of employment and the cost of rescue
and rebuilding.
All things that are too much is considered to be bad. Farmers or their plants rather will need a sufficient amount of sunlight and water (rains) so that they can grow their crops healthy but because of what some people are doing (bad things which affect the environment) this breaks the balance of the weather. Sometimes we feel too hot and sometimes too cold or too much rains, which is not good for those who have a farming business. When people starts littering around, that is also the number one cause of floods. Floods are very damaging not only to the farmers or their crops but also the people who are going to be affected with it. As regards farming, what is contributing to the problems is the fact that over 30% of arable land is being used to grow crops for animals which in turn produce a lot of methane/carbon dioxide. Forestry in some parts of the world is being cleared in order to grow more crops to feed even more animals. The whole system is messing with the environment and weather systems and unfortiunately it seems to be the poorest people who are suffering the most. Its also funny that while some countries may be benefiting economically from the over production of animals it is creating economic crises for others. https://www.onegreenplanet.org/environment/livestock-feed-and-habitat-destruction/https://www.greenpeace.org/eu-unit/issues/nature-food/45159/majority-of-european-crops-feeding-animals-and-cars-not-people/ https://www.theguardian.com/business/2022/jun/11/climate-crisis-inflation-economy-climatenomics-bookForget Ukraine, coronavirus, corporate greed and “supply chain issues”, when it comes to
inflation the climate crisis is the real, lasting, worry, according to a new book, and one that’s only likely to get worse. |
