The day is here!
They have released the poster a couple of hours ago on instagram so it is now official.

Who else is getting ready for the biggest UFC card of the year (so they are saying of course!) happening November 12th?

They just released the poster so the excitement is already starting with over a month away:

The Diamond vs Chandler is getting more hype than the main event. Which I found funny.

I took the same with an under on points.
Now I was right about the points but not on the result.
Mahomes could not produce at the very end and I think gave up an interception to keep them from scoring atleast a field goal to tie it up at 20.
Matt Ryan looked like the younger version of himself with that last effort drive in the 4th quarter to give them the lead.
This was a shocker and same with the way the Bills lost with Allen throwing it into the grow at the 1 yard line just short of getting it to his receiver who was in the end zone.
It was a disastrous loss by Buffalo and couldn't watch them all as they both were being played at the exact same time.

Just watching Brady having a difficult time with Packers already down 7-3 to Rodgers.

GG. I wonder if any influencers will be able to migrate over to Odysee or some such platform that isn't subject to such hostile takes.

As YouTube, Twitch and other such Big Tech platforms clamp down, it would be nice to see decentralized blockchain tech, like Odysee, step up and take that part of the market share for that very reason.
Never had heard of this platform for streaming before and will assume there will be others who want to have the influx of the audience that twitch will be giving up due to their decision on the stance of gambling on the platform.
Stevewilldoit which is a social media influencer recently got banned from youtube for the very same reason. And while on a gambling chat saw it was mentioned he was using rumble, inwhich I haven't heard of either.
This clamp down on gambling streams will have a ripple effect among all other large streaming platforms.
For better or for worse - growing them tenfold or shrinking their platform viewership.

All of this is nice and good or at least it sounds so.  But I wonder how many of these islands/resorts/countries are Bitcoin True or Bitcoin Fairweather?  Are they all in when the next bear market hits or will they temporarily or permanently close shop for Bitcoin.
This is what I currently thought of when I first heard this news.
It is possibly the worse time to announce a new endeavour to begin another bitcoin island.
If this term sounds familiar thats because it is!
Bitcoin island was created by an architecture firm from hong kong that is located on Vanuatu in the Coral sea.

"A small, private island—32 million square feet, to be exact—in the middle of the South Pacific Ocean will soon become a crypto-haven. Formerly a mini portion of Vanuatu, the lush 800-acre spread of land has since been named Satoshi Island, after the pseudonymous developer of Bitcoin."

A big day for week 3 in the NFL with 14 matches to enjoy on a Sunday.
The ones I have most interest in are the following:
Rams vs Cardinals, Bills vs Dolphins and Ravens vs Patriots.

Which ones are you going to watch?
Maybe put a little side bet on your favorite teams to make it a profitable weekend.

Strange @buwaytress. Very strange.
My promotions page using that link is always showing a special every few hours and has them listed a week ahead of time.
Might be region specific.
Such as the special listed below, this one has been showing for me since the beginning of the week.
It just sends you to the direct link for that specials page (shown as the very last link below).

Here is the Sportsbet Special for the UEFA Nations league for today at 8.80x for all the mentioned teams to win:


Only around an hour and a half to put in your bets for this one located here:

Who else saw Team Liquid losing to Eternal Fire too?
Had them to win but didn't see them grabbing both maps to make it a 2-0 win.
If you even took them to win the match then you had good odds at over 4.30x

Other streaming platform are still available for the streamer to use, aside from youtube, Facebook can also be used.  Besides, I read that Twitch will allow Casinos that have a license in the US so it is possible that stake streamer's stream activity on twitch will resume soon.
If we see YouTube still showing casino streamers, I tried to search for it using keywords and managed to show some famous youtube channels till now. There will still be alternatives like using a different youtube channel as an option. For example, split it into multiple live streams. Because the algorithm on Youtube is quite complex so there may be some leeway in the content rules. Such as unobtrusive descriptions with casino logo thumbnails, and descriptions that are often filtered by YouTube as one of the rules that pass the Content test and rise to the surface of their subscribers.


I think this is one good opportunity to expand the business, streaming is really a booming industry, and with the action of Twitch banning gambling streamers, the idea of Eddie buying Dlive make sense.
Stake.com still has plenty to choose from and what Eddie has to say about Dlive is also getting closer. So that the live streaming promotion continues in any way. Without Twitch, there would be little change, but eventually fans would know where the influencers would appear plus the tantalizing prizes would be worth it.
The streaming platform being bought out by them is a serious venture and they do plan on acquiring it from the current owners of the platform asap.
While on one of their streams he did a search on the domain stakelive.com but it was taken already and cost $50k to buy it. And that turned him off of trying to buy the name and create a platform on their own.
Twitch has said they will be banning all gambling from their site in the middle of October.
So they will need to have somewhere to have Drake to do his future streams since he was on twitch for the past three he had done already.

Guys, really? Any single message about GOATifi leaving Williams at the end of season. He haven't achieved anything significant in his career and probably didn't deserved seat in F1. Though, he wasn't worst driver in F1 history. But he always will be remembered as person who played main role in last race of 2021 season and gave chance for Verstappen to become champion.
There is few options who can replace him. It's Nyck de Vries, Mick Schumacher, Daniel Ricciardo and few names from F2.
In other news, Yuki Tsunoda extended contract with Alpha Tauri for 2023 season.
Yes I did see this video this morning labelled as Latifi leaving Williams but had a picture of DeVries looking very excited.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DdbBtlpfsds

So I guess he got his seat on the team.

Team Liquid started struggling in the first map but was able to put things together and they end up winning the map. I thought they would lose this map. They are heavily favored in this match and your bet looks good on paper. I also think that they could take this 2-0, but I am now doubtful because of that first map. They are making too many mistakes and if this carries to map 2, Movistar may take a map from them.

Anyway, let's see if Team Liquid will be more confident and composed on map 2.
I also thought they'll drop the first map but good thing they're able to take over in the second half.

Then in the second map, it was like the sides have been flipped, close game but not enough for Team Liquid to win as they started off great in the first half then slowly lose momentum in the near end of the half which gave Movistar enough opportunity to take their map pick.
I had team liquid to win too but picked under 2.5 maps on a betslip that won all others except for this one. 4 matches @11.86x to win 0.05btc and it all came down to this match.
Think I saw Furia winning their match 11-1 earlier today so turned it off. Team Liquid is a side to not bet on winning all the time.

@slaman29
They actually have them several hours before the matches start and now up until they begin from the last two I have seen so far.
So their window for availability for allowing to place a bet on these specials have been improving now.

Had received my free chips for Clubhouse blackjack yesterday and got a blackjack on it!


Promotion still going on for everyday until the 30th of the month.
Check out the specials on their link available here with the crown on the main page:

Cloud9 were on point for the first match to resume the tournament today against Evil geniuses.
Was scanning their jersey they wear and didn't see a logo for Sportsbet.io on there yet. So they might be only sponsoring them for Dota2.

Matches for the rest of the tournament can be viewed at:

This is an interesting discussion and one that has taken the forefront on mass media in the past week as well.
I was just watching a show on the tube and they were analyzing why the major online casino's such as MGM and Fanduel (in the states) do not accept cryptocurrencies to gamble with while others are based on it. This is for sports gambling as the show I was watching was on a sports cable network.
It all comes down to licensing and what jurisdiction they operate out of.

Or he could very well be waiting for a gofundme to transpire with this statement about satoshi's ip.
Who knows really.
But if he doesn't need to pay for some of the equipment at any rate, even if he is wealthy, then he will most certainly take it in that direction.

Did anyone managed to read about what a well known affiliated streamer on Stake had to say about gambling and streaming on twitch?
https://www.dexerto.com/entertainment/trainwreck-hits-back-twitch-gambling-ban-demands-sliker-controversy-1934996/
Someone asking to pay for his losses because he blames the streamer for getting him involved in the first place.
Some crazy stuff going on there for real.

During the last couple of megaraces the owner did mention he is working on purchasing the current platform they are streaming on, D-Live.
They are probably going to call it eDDie-Live just for the fun of it.

Managed to et in those 50 hands on blackjack to get the $5usdt chips on the Sportsbet blackjack table.

Did anyone see those Sportsbet Specials over the weekend for the EPL?
If you happened to see them and grab them, then you won them both as they landed!
I only got the first one for Tottenham to win with over 2.5 goals @2.20x


Arsenal to win and Jesus to score @3.20x was the one that I missed.

Been waiting for the esl pro league matches to start up again since the tournament runs until October 2nd.
Was going to place a bet yesterday but noticed none of the teams were playing.
Got to wait until it resumes tomorrow.

Damn, only lost by two on that betslip and by the easier bouts on the card (boser and sabatini).
Overall it was a great fight between Sandhagen and Yadong.
Just too bad the referee had to stop it due to a cut over Song's eye and it closing completely.
Managed to get the Sandhagen KO @5.80x because it was ruled a TKO and the book graded it so.
