Paul Lee has a lesser burden now because he has Abueva who provides energy in the floor. Meralco has no chance to beat the Magnlio, they have been dominated already in the last 2 games.

Everyone was stepping up actually.

We saw that, that's why he delivers more because the defense is not only focused on him. Meralco is now on the brink of elimination, one loss and everything will be gone for them ( at least they should not expect to come back from 3-0 deficit). Therefore, they have to give everything they have and they can in game 3, it should be considered as a win or go home game for them.
No excuse for them, game 3 is a must-win game, if they lose, then consider this as the series over. The other match-up is more fun, SMB came back from a huge deficit in order to even the series, and now it's only a best of 5 series, and game 1 and game 2 were really entertaining.

As of now, no odds are available yet but expect tonight it will be open.

This series is less competitive than the other. Bolts will be swept if Almazan won't suit up for tomorrow's game as Cliff Hodge will be abuse by Calvin Abueva and Jackson Corpuz down low. It's only the TNT Katropa of the MVP group of companies who got a chance for the trophy.
Indeed, Calvin Abueva and Jackson are playing with swag, I mean they are the bad boys of the team, while Sanggalang is also very consistent.
I like the Magnolia hotshots team now, looks like they have a good chance of wining the championship, if they will advance and SMB lose against TNT, I would go for Magnolia.

If we based our bet for the 3rd game of SMB and TNT on the previous games then betting for TNT is more likely will give us the win for our money if the spread moves in favor of TNT like 2.5 or 3.5.

Odds are not out yet and if ever bookies will give odds like above as speculated then i might go with the Katropa.

The final result are very close between the two, so the underdog team is worth to bet on.

It is always unknow whether the price has jumped due to some kind of news or because of some market movement, or probably both, but there is something that i have been noticing is that every year with the Q4 there is always a bit of surge in the prices, whatever the conditions and  the news, and it is still to this day unknown to me why that this is happening.
I saw this as a normal uptrend motion as we are in the Christmas season like we have experience in the past years. Well, of course, we are not sure that everything will go on the flow as of before as a lot of factors could affect the current momentum and it diverts the trend going back down. If the market could able to sustain this uprising trend, not far seeing that we might reach for another ATH, currently at $54k, quite not far from getting back to $60k before we end this month.
2323  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: October 06, 2021, 11:50:23 AM
The new season is going to be starting exactly two weeks later. And the first games are just perfectly good. It looks like there is no sleeping for me that night.  Cheesy  First, Milwaukee Bucks are going to play a home game against Brooklyn Nets. Right after that, Los Angeles Lakers have a home game against Golden State Warriors. It is still very early to make predictions about these games of course as the pre-season games are continuing. Unless all of these teams have their biggest players injured, my favourites will be Nets and Lakers.

I'm looking forward to seeing the other team plays too, especially the Atlanta Hawks, and gonna cheer for my man Trae Young who wanted to bring back his team to the playoffs. The Nets and the Lakers are the most speculated teams to face off in the Finals but things will be different when we reach the actual season games where the pressure are realistic and injuries are random where when it hits the star players on those two teams, it automatically changes the flow of the season just like what happened last time when AD is out of the league.
That's why it's very important for them to be healthy this season so the team can play their best and we will see our expectations. For me, what happened last season was not surprising at all, when one star is down, it has a big effect on the team and we've seen the effect, the healthier team wins the game.

It is crazy to think someone would pass on that sort of money for any reason. I can relate to him though. When you have a shitty boss that doesn’t have your back, sometimes it isn’t about the money. It’s about getting away from toxic people who will turn their back on you when you need it. People like that are beyond useless and I get where Ben is coming from. I hope he finds a new team and sticks it to the 76ers whenever they play. The way that city turned on him during the playoffs last year was disgraceful.
There are rumors that Simmons is selling one of his residences in Philadelphia. So I guess he may not worry about fines at the moment, but it's worth noting that he can still lose $30 mln after the end of the season if nothing changes. Anyway, Simmons needs to improve his mental health because he should be resistant to stress even if he finds a new team.

I guess what he just wanted is to get out of Philly obviously, and is willing to lose big amount of money. But yeah, superstar athletes should not just physically strong but mentally as well. Maybe he should hire someone to manage his case against Philly here.

And yes we can only hope that some team around is willing to get him out of this situation. The damage is done the only solution for both sides is to really separate.
Sixers is not losing grasp with Simmons, they still in control and like how willing
Simmon, in losing a huge chunk of money they are also in the same boat, they don't want to sell this trade as bargain asset.

Whoever team seeks for Simmon's service needs to offer more. Sixers is willing to bench him but keep him still inside their squad.

Only a good deal will change sixers' management minds, I guess. Simmon's case still hanging even the regular season is almost starting.]


I don't think that's a good idea for the sixers, so you are saying that they are willing to play undermanned this season and sacrifice their chance just to give Simmons a lesson? I guess they should focus on the goal, and that is to win since the management invested a lot of money for their roster, and knowing they are not complete this season, they should not expect a championship, or even a chance to be in the ECF.

SMB -1.5 @1.95 boosted, double my game 1 bet so if ever SMB win, it's already a profit for me this series  Grin.
Nice plan bro, but are you gonna stop betting if SMB wins game 2?

I guess it will be a long series, so if they win game 2, you are in profit, and if they lose in game 3, you can double your bet again, who knows they'll win in game 4 again. Very clever, and you should be as PBA is not hard to predict, you know, the "Fixed thing".
2328  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Canelo Alvarez vs Caleb Plant on: October 05, 2021, 11:22:59 AM
What do you think about the rounds though? I'm thinking around 6 and up the fight would go on Canelo's way. Going to distance? Now I'm having my doubts as it looks like Canelo is going for the kill here because of Caleb's trash talking. There are training videos of Canelo is YT and he always tells us that this is personal for him.

The trash talk and the scuffle that followed looked scripted for me, so I don't want to read too much into it. And IMO, there is a 50% chance of a KO. But even if the fight ends in a KO, I expect it after the 8th round. 6th is a bit early for me. I know that Canelo is like invincible in his weight class. But Caleb has an unbeaten record till now and he is no easy walkover. I am not saying that he's going to beat Canelo. But he has the capability to last for the full 12 rounds and even if the fight ends in a KO it will come late during the fight.

Maybe in the rounds of 6-8 might be a good bet. But if you really wanted to have a very attractive odds, you might go with round 8 for a KO win by Canelo. Yes, Caleb is no pushover, no lost in his career. But that's what BJS and Callum Smith was before facing Canelo. They have no lost as well and people says that they have a chance to win, but Canelo took that 0 from both fighters.

I'm just curious, what's with the round 8?

Is there an odds already available for Canelo winning in round 8?

I guess you really need to have the funs in escrow if you want to attract more participants here. The payment in BTC, it's not easy to hire people to join the campaign, but the risk is high if the fund is not escrowed, you know what I'm saying. You are a bounty manager, and I'm sure you are pretty much aware that the risk of scams is very high, participants just ensuring they will be paid for their effort.

Houston has Jalen Green though, been watching the kid's clips on YouTube ever since, if he stays healthy and consistent, he has the potential to bring Houston in a better position (not sure in the playoffs though, he's still a rookie),
A rookie that would lead a team, that's unlikely but if they don't have any option, then probably we will see him getting more minutes and though the Rockets would not be in the playoffs (I presume), I think the kid will have an impressive rookie season which is enough for him to build a good stats for a better contract in the future.
2332  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bet Responsibly Campaign on: September 28, 2021, 12:09:20 PM
This campaign is well aimed and addresses the risk of reputation damage as gambling grows.

The gambling industry will grow as people are patronizing it, so this initiative is very helpful as we cannot prevent that someone could become an addict to gambling if they don't understand the risk. I guess awareness of the risk has to be consistently reminded and this campaign will have to live and grow more so it will reach all the gamblers in the world.

It's also important that they understand that they blame themselves than gambling when they gets addicted.

What do you think about Calvin Oftana?

This guy made history breaking Alan Caidic's record, and he is still in his rookie year now, so what do we expect about him. will he become a star player of the NLEX to replace Ravena who are now playing in the B League?

source :
Former NCAA MVP Calvin Oftana breaks Allan Caidic's rookie record

I think he will be a valuable player for the team, it's not surprising because he is a former NCAA MVP and sure he can shoot. The most important here is that he is lucky to be playing with the NLEX which has a coach that allows all his players to shoot 3s even their big man actually, so this happens and he really showed up.

This is just the beginning, we can expect more from him although he will become a marked man soon.
2334  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Inoue vs Casimero Bantamweight Unification Fight on: September 22, 2021, 02:04:14 PM
I've watched a live stream interview between Casimero and Donaire and it seems the two fighters are still entertaining to have a match on the interview Casimero wants Donaire to send the contract to him and he will read and if he will sign it if he approves of the contract, there's uncertainty on the Inoue Casimero match there are negotiations but nothing concrete has come out yet because Casimero still entertain and is very open to fight Donaire, unfortunately just this day WBC ordered Donaire to take on Graballo as his mandatory challenger.
Donaire have to follow that order from WBC or else, he'll lose his belt so technically no more Casimero and Donaire this year hopefully it'll come next after the fight between Inoue and Casimero, this fight are more possible to happen. Trash talking is very effective with Casimero, I just hope that he is being managed very well so he can still have his reputation and I know, this is all part of the game to market the boxer.
That's right, he has to follow the orders and I think Donaire could beat Gaballo since he has the experience and Gaballo had a controversial win in his last fight. Skills-wise, Donaire has the advantage but Gaballo is also strong, he loves to fight toe to toe which what Donaire is looking so he can throw his best counter punches.

Here's a short highlight of the fight between Gaballo and Rodriguez.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kj24lKRLH7k

Many are convinced that Rodriguez was robbed here and I also agree with that, but he is the aggressor, probably that's what the judges see to this fight. However, he doesn't seem to play good defense, which is bad for a boxer who is good of throwing a KO punch, I'm referring to Donaire of course.

Some fans even speculate that the game was fixed because Northport is a farm team for SMC teams, lol.
That was because of the recent news that one of the SMB players is accused of being a tipster, but actually, it's not new, people already suspect that this league is rig.

Anyway, it's already over, coach Pido and Greg already corrected their mistake by winning a crucial game and Greg was the hero in that game. Hopefully, they will continue to win so this Northport will have a great conference with the help of Greg Slaughter.
It's their first season together, they will have to get to know each other but the coach should always be respected even if his decision is wrong sometimes as he is the captain of the ship.
2336  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Emotions should never be traded. on: September 19, 2021, 11:06:50 PM
Emotional is everyone's problem.  Even professional traders sometimes forget emotions.  must really maintain emotional stability in trading and maintain trading patterns correctly.  so that it can run well without a high risk of experiencing emotional losses.  for the market, this condition may have to be observed by looking at the conditions of the time, when to buy, sell and hold.  This can't be wrong
We can't rid of it as we are human beings but must have to control it otherwise, this could be the reason for our failure. This is really a big challenge for everyone but if you do this for a reason, I don't think it is really hard to change. We can do this for sure, nothing is impossible if we wanted to do so. But if you think NOT in the very beginning, that surely it never helps and better not to try trading as it certainly gives you a problem one day.
2337  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [WARNING!] For gamblers using coins.ph on: September 16, 2021, 08:53:25 PM
Damn the sole reason you do not use a centralized wallet is because of these situations. You can use your own wallet and send the coins and the authorities are not going to monitor them. In my country there is no restrictions for gambling and never will be but for countries that are prohibited from gambling online you just avoid using centralized wallets when you can create your own wallet.
The problem is if you cannot exchange your bitcoin due to lack of outlet, there's no way our coins will be monitored if it's directly sent to our wallet since it's not regulated, but centralized exchange especially the local exchange is different because you exchange your crypto assets to fiat and the government would like to know the source or nature of transaction so you will be tax accordingly.

In this case, it's gambling and it's prohibited, you'll not be taxed but you'll be charged with a violation of the law.
2338  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: September 16, 2021, 02:26:42 PM
Nice to see that Kyrie Irving is still his same toxic self.  After a myriad of wild antics last year it seems the Nets have decided that they might want to move on from the diva guard.  In response to the Nets showing an interest in trading Kyrie, his agent has come out and said publicly that Kyrie will retire before playing with another team, seeming to tank his trade value and force the Nets to keep him on the roster.  Today Kyrie tweeted, My mask is off. Now take yours off. No fear.  He then clarified that this had nothing to do with Covid.  Assumingly, this is his response to the team's trade desire and him playing his "retirement" card.  
Wow. He is really full of himself. I understand why he doesn't want the Nets to let him go, he want to prove himself first putting the Nets to a championship game so that his value will go up again. Because right now, if they let him go, his value will surely go down due to injuries and that bad playoffs event against the Bucks.
His agent is wise also saving his ass from losing a lot of money, use the retirement card because this means like a buyout, right? Correct me if I am wrong.
Smart move by Irving, but not too smart to help the team win a championship, with his attitude, there's no way he will win a championship again, and with this news, I think the NBA championship betting odds will change and will make the LA Lakers be the favorites to win the championships. I'm convince now that the Nets really has a problem and that is Irving, he just want to showcase his personal ability, not really a way to jive with the team to build a chemistry.
There's no more pride on the star players of the NBA, they were idolized by the fans with the way they play but they seem to become a toxic and try to play in a legal way just to seek more money. I know this is business, but being a star player, one should become a model and maintain his reputation until he retires.

Why would Irving talk about retirement?

He is only 29 years old and he still has more seasons to play, I would say he is still in his prime right now, the only problem is he gets easily injured.

Is this a Wrestling match? Sorry, I don't follow wrestling a lot but I could bet on this fight if the odds are available.

As the fight is scheduled September 18, 2021, I was expecting that I can find betting odds for this fight, but I tried to search in the sportsbook I'm using, I could not find available odds for this fight.

2340  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: September 16, 2021, 12:59:27 PM
Maybe the team has run out of stars or maybe they cannot build chemistry as the moment they get better, big teams will take their star to play with them.

If they always play like that, they will never fun out of star because no star will be created in this team. They tanked so hard this conference after they got traded Mac Belo, while the Meralco Bolts enjoyed the service of Belo. I think Blackwater has to be overhauled, they just have to accept their faith this conference and maybe just improve next time.

With the result, I think it's not wise to ever think of betting on them, even if the spread is hard to resist.
