2401  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Casimero vs Butler ordered by WBO on: February 19, 2022, 05:29:02 PM
There's only one reason I can guess, Casimero is not happy that he is not getting big fights under MP promotion, maybe with the new promotion, he has a chance to fight Inoue which is probably his ultimate goal why he wants to have an impressive win every time.

Somehow, it's not that the Promoter itself has to take the blame but if the other party is not interested, then there's no fight to be organized in the first place.

What Casimero should just do is to go with the flow. Continue winning until triggering the bell of other parties to now taking his challenge.

Naoya Inoue soon has no choice but to accept the challenge.
2402  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto stuck in sports betting site, now they want KYC on: February 19, 2022, 05:19:37 PM
Well from the looks of it, you have violated their TOS so that's ground for your account to be banned.
But the thing is that you have money there so their is the issue. I doubt though that you can get your money back for the simply fact, as I have said previously, there is a violation on your part. So sorry to burst the bubble for you, but chances are slim that you will get your $1,200.

Exactly.

Even though OP has friends in other countries where it is legal, I doubt that the gambling site he was talking about will let it slide. Gambling ToS once violated has a consequence, and even though your money is in their, I bet they will just simply tell OP about what he did and he will never get the money out of their.

It was OP's fault clearly, because he already knew what's gonna happen once he get caught.

I believe OP already understands that even at the point he will comply with KYC, nothing good will happen. That's why he thinks that using other identities might solve the case which I also doubt will work.

To somehow solve the issue and further proceed on the moving stage, OP should now totally forget this and accept the fact that it's over. Consider the amount stuck on that site as a loss already.

Yeah, hopefully we will see a great competition in the slam dunk as this is one of the most anticipated because it bring backs memories of Michael Jordan and Vince Carter and other great dunkers in the NBA's history. My favorite for this year is Jalen Green and hopefully he won't disappoint his fans or others could give us something that we haven't seen before.

Don't expect too much entertainment from the Slam Dunk contest to the point that all dunks will be good. Of course, I'm enjoying it but not on the highest level. No doubt that the majority of Dunk Contest is crap, as even considered by others, not until the like of Lavine, Gordon put up a great show.

With this year's Slam Dunk, I hope they will surprise us with new dunks on their sleeves.

Enjoy the All-Star Weekend, guys.

I think it's really necessary that they will be sold so the players will not lose their job, and since the salary of the players is high, then for sure we are talking of big companies here.

Just to clarify things, Alaska players won't lose their job. Instead, they will be part of the next draft.

The perks of companies that are likely to buy the Alaska franchise is, they will also be granted all the future draft rights of the team. Currently, Alaska has a right for 2 first-round picks next conference.

Now I wonder why there are more companies willing to buy a franchise instead of newly registering as a team. BlackWater also received lots of offers before if they are really serious about selling their franchise before.
2405  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: February 18, 2022, 11:58:31 PM
Lose my bet on that Blackwater vs NLEX game, i thought that 11.5 point spread was huge but Blackwater just could not find the bucket when needed. I think this losing-streak record will continue for a long time and they may exit the PBA on a losing note. 

Blackwater wasn't able to copy their recent performance against Columbian DYIP and I think that's the reason you trust them with 11.5. I also have the same thinking prior to games. Blackwater will be good for selling after tanking every conference.

Maybe that's what other company is waiting for compared to signing as a new team for the league's expansion in the future.

1. The price of this token kept surging and surging, there was no retrace or whatsoever which to me is a red flag, the whole chart was a straight line aiming for the moon.

Are you sure the volume is generic? You should always check the market orders for it.

2. Telegram channel was restricted, no one can make comments or send messages, another red flag that I don't get suspicious over

It's an automatic red-flagged. There should be no reason why the group becomes restricted.

Anyone should be able to voice out their concern.

It's too late already but hope someone learn one or two lessons from this

There's no such thing as "too late". The next one you will do is the start. Since you have already learned your lesson, you are more careful on your actions the next time you become interested again in investing at Metaverse.
2407  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Kraken CEO give a heads up to carefully use CEX on: February 18, 2022, 11:52:47 PM
Just recently browse this screen capture of Kraken CEO Jesse Powell in response to a concern tweet about freezing of account without consent of owner. The CEO is 100% sure about the possibility of this event so if you guys are concern for freezing your account, You should withdraw now all your coins on all CEX and never store on it if you are still doing this kind things.

Even without that kind of announcement, it should be a usual approach not to "store" coins on a third-party service.

Not saying you shouldn't use those services but only if it's really needed to or you are running out of alternatives.

I appreciate though the awareness of the CEO of one of the popular exchanges in the crypto-world. That's a good reference at those new players lurking right now in between several centralized exchanges.
2408  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Blockchain Gambling on: February 18, 2022, 11:48:21 PM
what is the actual status of Blockchain Gambling, is there now Live-Roulette running? I ask this, because i don' t like to be scammed anymore  through the middle man Online Casino.

I don't understand the role of "middle-man" you are referring to. A $20 scam doesn't make sense if the involved site is a popular one. There might be something we don't know about the story.

Moving forward, there are lots of trusted gambling sites you can consider. More to mention but if you want to do your own research, you can lurk at some of the ANN threads here and you should understand how good the site is by just reading comments.
2409  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bear vs Bull : The Beauty Of Cryptocurrency on: February 18, 2022, 11:33:22 PM
Regardless of any thoughts, people have to understand that a bearish market is not totally a negative situation they can consider in the crypto market. Without a bearish market, there's no choice but to buy at peak price, not just in bitcoin but for other coins as well.

Either bullish or the bearish market situation also enhanced anyone's skills regarding what approach they need to do in order to deal with the current situation.

Building experience is the key in general. Bull or bear, shouldn't be a problem at experienced ones.
2410  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING] Logan Paul vs Mike Tyson on: February 16, 2022, 11:59:27 PM
The real question is...  So many people seem to think this Paul/Tyson fight will happen.  Is there a place we can bet on it never happening, ever?
The last news for this match is not going to happen and that's still from the staff of Mike who has said that. Now, there's more interesting issue with Logan and Mayweather.

News: LOGAN PAUL: I'M SUING FLOYD MAYWEATHER ... 'He's a F***ing Scumbag'

Maybe he just wants to recover those losses when he was being a victim of those fake Pokemon Cards he purchased last month if I remember it right lol. The amount involved is insane. Floyd Mayweather is not that dumb to allow that kind of hole. Let's see what will be the progress of that case.

Back to topic, yes, no sign that this fight will push through. Better remove it from your list especially for those who are still expecting it.
2411  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Drake Wagered $1.3 million in super bowl bet using bitcoin on: February 16, 2022, 11:42:48 PM
Is this is paid publicity? I'm just curious, but regardless, I still like the fact that a celebrity is not afraid of risking huge money using a crypto sportsbook. Stake is already popular in the crypto space, but with this publicity, for sure they will be more popular, and it will not end there as the whole crypto gambling world will benefit from this kind of publicity.

I am also interested in this and especially wonder how much such PR costs. But most likely the details (if this is PR and not a regular bet) we will not know soon. I think that like all major bookmakers, Stake has a VIP program to attract celebrities and there are many different bonuses for such actions as "show your bet on social networks". Therefore, most likely this is a real bet, but he received some bonuses for his activity.

That doesn't matter but as far as my own observation is concerned, it's a legit bet, and no such thing as paid publicity or partnership to promote the Stake platform. The Stake platform is now being more popular.
Don't tell BS just because you are promoting them in your signature and your avatar bro, you won't get any bonus from them for that believe me, they reserve them for their "friends" if you haven't noticed it yet. You should better read the link posted by Hamphser above, then you will understand that's an obvious PR marketing operation https://www.gamblingnews.com/news/new-viral-video-confirms-drake-enjoys-playing-online-roulette/

Can't believe you really make me think that I'm eyeing for bonus lol.

I'm not like you, bro. I'm totally not concerned about that as long as everything is settled smoothly weekly. I'm surprised that there's someone who took concern on that politics you are referring which is not a big deal to me. I don't even think of it honestly until you have mentioned it since I don't really care.

It should belong in the Reputation section lol. Peace. Let's not bring that topic here.
2412  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: CrazyTime and Monopoly, should we trust? on: February 14, 2022, 11:36:27 PM
I also questioned the fairness of these games. I can't imagine that somewhere part in the world, there's really a live studio hosting these games. Even it was a part of the popular gambling site, I don't trust these games even for a purpose of entertainment.

Not just Monopoly or games similar to it but for other live casinos as well.

Live Casinos is not in my vocabulary to play with.

I have the same feelings about these games and therefore I have never played them. But logically, if these games were dishonest, then sooner or later their organizers would be caught on something (or there would be a leak of information about how everything really works) and the organizers of such games would lose their reputation. But I don't think I've heard of any such investigations or scandals.

Let's say that was pre-recorded, still, gamblers just have to place their bets. In the event they picked it right, then there's no question. I also don't think that was a dishonest part since everyone is guessing. It's just that it wasn't live which should be not a big deal as in the first place, it's still a game of luck.

However, as I mentioned, I rarely play these games so I can't share any good experiences.

It will now end up on a gambler's choice if they really love playing those games or not regardless of the concerns about live casinos.
2413  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING] Logan Paul vs Mike Tyson on: February 14, 2022, 11:28:24 PM
Well, does anyone of you already know the exact date for this fight!!?

I did a little research and verified that this Tyson vs Paul fight will probably be for hype and visibility!
What is your opinion on this!!? Do you believe that this fight will actually take place? What result do you expect!!?

Please refer to some of the prior posts here. The fight won't happen, at least that you should expect now providing there's no progress. Any analysis shouldn't be discussed on a fight that is nowhere to happen even at 1% not unless they will revive the idea of making this happen.

If you did some research, you should be able to encounter articles, news, or sources stating this fight won't happen soon or totally will not push through for good.

Maybe we can see Tyson again involved in some exhibition matches but not against Logan Paul.
2414  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What websites you use for live scores? on: February 14, 2022, 11:22:02 PM
Could anyone tell me if there is a site or video performing a site comparison for tracking live scores?

What do you mean by site comparison? If there's any I think it is not necessary to refer to those as long as the tracking site you have chosen is quick un updating the latest scores and has already been in the operation for a long.

If you are using FlashScore as you have mentioned and want to test the waters on other sites, you can just use the other sites mentioned by the OP and see if your experience will be the same.

Anyhow, even you will see a site that compares those, you will still end up using one of those out of curiosity.

2415  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: February 14, 2022, 11:11:20 PM
I actually don't like Harden too much, his game style is not for me but I am super excited about his trade. Embid is an amazing player and Sixers were doing all right this year. 34-22 is not bad for them which is their standing before the trade. With a motivated Harden they might be the biggest threat on the east. Let's see his adjustment period. I guess he will play tomorrow against the Celtics. I will watch and see his performance.

The Sixers are doing great before that trade knowing how Joel Embiid is performing this season. However, those players they shipped out are part of that improvement why they have a good standing currently and can keep up with the competition.

If James Harden will able to cover that hole, they will be dangerous. It's not the first time that the Sixers had several choices as their main scorer. Back in Jimmy Butler's tenure in Sixers, he's the one who always touches the ball and nailing a shot. Not comparable but at least we can have a reference on what thing we can expect from now on.

Let's see if Harden and Embiid duo will be a threat to the competitive Eastern Conference now.
2416  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: February 14, 2022, 11:00:12 PM
If these teams will face each other, one of them will surely not be undefeated.  Smiley

Magnolia Hotshots do have a tough schedule this week. They are against with NLEX Road Warriors and Phoenix FuelMasters on February 16th and 19th respectively. Not saying Hotshots will now have a sure loss but there's a chance since their upcoming games are against one of the toughest teams right now in the league.

Meralco Bolts on the other hand are against Northport Batang Pier and Rain-Or-Shine on February 17th and 20th respectively. I'm sure they can handle those teams but not an easy win.

My speculation is, either Meralco or Magnolia will suffer their first loss this week.
2417  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Casimero vs Butler ordered by WBO on: February 14, 2022, 10:50:53 PM
I don't see an upset either, Butler is not a champion and he lose to Tete which fighter was beaten by Casimero. From any angle, I can see that Casimero is the better fighter and this fighter would not be able to have a chance to fight him if Inoue take the challenge before.
You are right that Butler's name won't be picked if the negotiation against Inoue got organized but there's someone behind the scene who make that fight didn't happen. Inoue is interested and he said that please organize a fight against Casimero but nothing happened.

For sure there are people behind this negotiation since they will not divert Casimero fight to another unexpected fighter without any reason and might they see the hype is so premature yet and they want to widespread the news about Inoue vs Casimero so that they can earn huge money for this match up. Casimero needs to win this so that he can bring more hype to close that fight against Inoue.

If I'm not mistaken, WBO just stepped in and ask a mandatory title defense because both Casimero and Inoue are just trading and exchanging tirades without even a 1% progress that their fight will happen soon. Casimero also leaks information that he will face Inoue last December which should not be disclosed until everything is official and under negotiation.

Moving forward, Casimero just needs to win this fight to have a chip at fighting Inoue this year. The return of the Monster is on June-July as per reports. Enough time for Casimero to rest if he wins in March.
2418  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto stuck in sports betting site, now they want KYC on: February 14, 2022, 10:47:04 PM
Is this a good idea and do you think it will work? Worth the $1,200? My only hesitation at this point is asking the friend and they go through the hassle but then it goes sideways and still do not gain access to my account.
I think it's not worth it even if you do the KYC they'll still ignore your request at all considering you're from USA and their T&C wasn't allow such citizen. It's a worthless initiative I guess even if you pass a KYC. If somehow you can ask some friends that doesn't care on their privacy and information as well then I guess you'll still be in luck. That amount may not be huge for a US citizen I guess, it's your call if you want to do the necessary things.

If that happened in my case, I will comply with the KYC since I'm not really concerned about these identity-related issues if the involved site is somehow reputable. But since OP stated that even complying with KYC won't clear this mess, then it will change my view that why should I still submit if there will be no good outcome later on.

That being said, OP should now try everything if the eagerness to get the amount is really important. While at the same time, OP should now slowly accepts that the issue might not be resolved.
2419  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Drake Wagered $1.3 million in super bowl bet using bitcoin on: February 14, 2022, 10:28:39 PM

I believed it's not the first time that the famous Drake involved in crypto-betting. It's just that, it was highlighted recently because he stakes an amount that is something out of ordinary. That was really an insane amount that even a gambling whale won't risk.

I don't see it as a way of advertising crypto since it's just a normal thing now that someone popular is using bitcoin to place a bet on a big event like Super Bowl.

Is this is paid publicity? I'm just curious, but regardless, I still like the fact that a celebrity is not afraid of risking huge money using a crypto sportsbook. Stake is already popular in the crypto space, but with this publicity, for sure they will be more popular, and it will not end there as the whole crypto gambling world will benefit from this kind of publicity.

So we can really tell, he's really not on his prime anymore and he may have some fight even at the age of 35 years old but the chance of winning is relatively small.

No doubt that there are now signs of being slowing down.

Age is really a factor, especially in a post-prime period. These boxers will surely realize if hanging their gloves is now an option if they will continue losing or not performing well.

In the case of Jacobs, he still won five of the first six rounds. He just got a lack of fuel at the end.
