Big win by the Rockets, I bet on them when they are down double digit but I parlayed it with the NOP which lose in the OT against the Nuggets. So bad day for me as I lose my bet but on the other hand, I have fun watching the game.

Great game by Jalen Green, he scored 24 points and I think he is already living to our expectations.

Hopefully we will see more consistency from him.

I did not bother to bet on the Rockets as I was thinking they'll tank anytime, but it was a good game for them, I didn't expect that to happen, congratulations to the winners but I have a feeling that bettors were on the other side.

The pelicans vs Nuggets game was so thrilling, I thought that the Pelicans will take the win already but Nuggets not giving up, a missed by Graham open an opportunity for the Nuggets and they didn't waste the opportunity.

Nuggets led by Jokic had a triple double.

46 points, 12 rebounds, and 11 assists.

What a masterclass performance by Chocolalito, seems like Martinez was the older fighter of the two  Smiley.


Martinez lost his legs going into the tenth round he just wants to finish the fight while Gonzalez just keeps moving forward, there's no hint of old age on Gonzales, not the fight that we expected we all thought it was going to be a close fight but it's not, the match against Estrada is still on and we'll wait for the announcement of that fight because in the first place it's the fight we expect.

I think it was due to the early attacks of Gonzalez in the body, in like rounds 1-3.
It really took a toll on Martinez as there was no more legs in the championship round. And of course, the experience of Gonzalez help him as well. He just took the rounds early and try to test Martinez chin and body and then they go toe to toe and he can take Martinez left hook.

Gonzales showed the young opponent how good he is and how his experience help him to be a better boxer. Gonzales may be the older fighter but he is not old at 34 years old, I'm pretty sure there's are still more fights coming for him, and maybe we will again see a fight with Juan Francisco Estrada to avenge his defeat.

This is much worse than covid 19. Covid wasn't really threatening people who are fit, like boxers. If they were rescheduling fights it was only due to stupid government restrictions, restrictions that people around the world were protesting against. Canada is a good example of that.
In this case young, fit people who survived covid and would live for decades are being murdered over nothing. Relly there's nothing to win from this stupid war. It only brings destruction and in the end both countries involved will lose.
I am also not supporting the war but to built a narrative that players and athletes from participate in competitions is not the way we should move forward as they have no voice over the war and they cannot prevent the war even if they wanted to make a difference. There is protest even in Russia to stop the war and i am expecting the match up between Canelo Alvarez and Dmitry Bivol will carry on as proposed.

Sanctioning everyone could not be the best solution to stop the war, so I'm also hopeful that the fight will push through based on a schedule. The government made its own decision and I'm pretty sure no citizen would choose war over a diplomatic approach as we all want to make peace, not war.

Let's not worry about this fight, let's stay optimistic that no hindrance will stop this from happening.

Ginebra -4.5 @1.86 vs ROS, must-win for the Kings so i think they will work hard for this one though this looks like a very risky bet for me because Ginebra is so erratic right now.

A must win game but a hard one for sure, ROS is still a good team despite of their current standing they will surely not let Ginebra to win easily.
They have a good lead now, Ginebra will take this win but not sure if they'll be able to cover the spread. We are now in the 3rd quarter and ROS reduce the lead into single digit, hopefully, Ginebra will hold on and will win this game.

ROS did come back but still Ginebra takes the lead with 6 points now in less than 5 minutes in the 4th quarter. The crowd is there for Ginebra, this is an exciting game, looks like Ginebra is going to win but the game is not over yet, so let's find out.

It's unfortunate for the ROS they allow the Ginebra for a 16-0 run and their import was also fouled out in the 4th quarter so they have to play all Filipino in less than 2 minutes of the game I guess. But it's a good win by Ginebra, they keep their composure, win and cover the spread.
2545  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Casimero vs Butler ordered by WBO on: March 06, 2022, 12:04:38 PM
^^ That is the justice system in the Philippines really very slow.
Unfortunately thats true. No changes at all.
sexual assault cases usually take a long time to be resolved. unless the accuser has solid evidence proving that he/she was sexually assaulted by the person being accused.
That's why we should not talk about it because this could be a false accusation only.
Besides, we only like to cheer Casimero because we want him to win, outside boxing is his personal life, we can't make a judgement on that.

Its a must for him to set aside his personal problem and focus on this fight. Its been delayed for months already due to his health issue so this time he needs to give his best to defend his title.
if this issue distracts him from his training and his fight it could cause him to lose his title belt and probably his chance of fighting Inoue. it would be a shame if that happened.
It will distract him if he is guilty, if not them he would not mind it as he is confident he will win the case.

2547  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: This Ukraine issue has me thinking a lot. In a crisis, how valuable is bitcoin? on: March 05, 2022, 02:27:46 PM
Assume you must evacuate your house during a wartime situation. You don't have any cash, but it's been depreciated owing to previous occurrences.

You, on the other hand, have your phone, hardware wallet, and seeds. You're in a nice mood.

The internet and cellphone networks then fall down.

How do you intend to use your bitcoin? Is it completely worthless?


Seeing a lot of news lately like: https://mycryptoparadise.com/ukraine-suspends-electronic-bank-transactions-following-its-unrest-with-russia/
If it is that so, you dont have any choice but to used your money or fiat to buy your necessities instead of bitcoin. Unless you're  planning to go out on that place, and move to another place where there is an internet and electricity. Bitcoin is still valuable because you can bring it anywhere. It is handy and easy to use. You dont need any documents or ID because it is decentralized.

2549  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Newbie Come to Crypto What they should do first? on: March 05, 2022, 07:35:17 AM
First and foremost, you should know that the crypto market is volatile and it changes daily. Therefore, it would be best if you do some research first and understand the market. And onced you convinced with the information you gathered, then you can go to trading. Crypto trading can be either profitable or you can lose money. Thats why it is important to be wise. Do not put all your eggs in one basket because there is never a 100% guarantee that you will get back your money. The market is so unpredictable and you should be aware. And lastly, you should also know that crypto trading is not a get-rich-quick scheme. It takes a lot of patience, discipline, and skills in order to be succeed in trading.
2550  Economy / Economics / Re: Inflation hits Russia on: March 05, 2022, 06:20:35 AM
In the current situation, most countries are sanctioning Russia’s behavior. The war has brought great disaster to innocent people. Many countries and even encryption are donating to addresses in Ukraine, while Russia is being suppressed and restricted. Only face collapse instead of rapid growth.
Russia knows the consequences yet they push it through just to prove to the world that they are powerful, but it looks like they are slowly failing. The inflation will rise more, expect a more sanctions and Russian people will suffer a lot. We already heard the news about panicking in Russia, I feel sorry for them since they can’t even protest to their own government or else they’ll face charges.
The saddest thing about this is that Putin was ready for that but simple people will suffer a lot. It is sad to see that there are many people will be hurt in many ways. While putin and other elites will just live comfortable as they are.
2551  Economy / Economics / Re: Who gain's from War ? on: March 05, 2022, 05:27:04 AM
Nothing is more profitable than war. War is never of a country's budget. And since it requires funds, countries under war would need money to loan to buy some weapons. And those businesses whose providing any kinds of weapons will benefits from war. And if the war ends, those companies who focus on reconstruction would also gain from war. And lastly those who are providig medical supplies, food and other basic needs will also gain profit.
2552  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Bitcoin Family on: March 05, 2022, 12:14:49 AM

Most of the users here could've known about this person Didi Taihuttu, father and husband of the bitcoin family. Didi Taihuttu went all-in on Bitcoin in 2016 when there is not much of attention towards cryptocurrency. He sold his and his family’s possessions, and camped in the Netherlands refugees campaign. In an interview he mentioned

Quote
“I don’t have any cars, motorbikes, nothing. And I’m happier than ever. And she [Taihuttu's wife] agrees! At that moment, we decide to break that chain and lead by example for the kids.”

Life is about accumulating happiness, “instead of accumulating wealth.” Hence, the Bitcoin Family was born. The three daughters “only have Bitcoin, not bank accounts,” while the parents have never looked back on their former lives.

This is something big to be done during those days. He have done it with such a courage and now he is successful out of the same. The true value of holding and believing in bitcoin can be understood through his life.

He have lived the bitcoin lifestyle. Living only with bitcoin isn't an easy thing and he have done it when there is not much of acceptance along with his wife and three daughters. He mentions it as something a nomadic style living. Taihuttu cites “six families” who have since sold all their possessions to enjoy the Bitcoin lifestyle.

What a man, the family have been doing charity with the 40% made through his cryptocurrency trading, affiliates and all other sources. Initially they've built a school in Mexico, an orphanage in Venezuela. Life changing moments through bitcoin. There is risk, but there is life and Didi Taihuttu and his family have proven it to the world.

Information gathered : The Bitcoin Family
This man is too brave. He sells everything including their house, their cars, bikes, clothes, furniture, toys, even their shoes just to purchase some bitcoin. It is a risky move to put all your eggs in one basket, but he made it. He just got lucky. And now his a multimillionaire traveling the world with his family. Very inspiring but if you are actually scared of losing, dont do this. It is still advisable to only invest the amount that you can afford to loss. I hope this family doing well right now and have some money out of bitcoin to save, because we cant really predict of what will happen next in the future, thats why its better for us to be prepared.
2553  Economy / Economics / Re: Why do most cryptocurrencies rise and fall together? on: March 04, 2022, 01:17:57 PM
This is because most of the cryptocurrencies depends on  bitcoins value. When the bitcoin goes up, the majority of cryptocurrencies/altcoins  moves up also. When the bitcoin price goes down, then all other cryptocurrencies also move in the same direction. Thats the reason why bitcoin is referred to as the king of all cryptocurrencies and most well-known crypto.
2554  Economy / Economics / Re: China says it will trade normally with Russia on: March 03, 2022, 11:45:07 PM
That’s because they and other countries like India, China and one more is there are directly involved in strategic partnerships with USA, UK and Russia. The thing is, if they give direct support to Russia or if they don’t support Russia they will get negative impression from both side.

I mean they have proper business and proper treaties with all the nations above so why would they show their support directly?

It’s not like they are gonna work normally with them, it’s just that they have commercial relationships with many countries and they do not want to be part of the WAR and any decisions made thereafter.
These countries are allies and sanctions will not let them interfere despite many countries will join in giving sanctions but these countries are more focus in their business and that they know how the economy will be affected. Russia in other ways know these at first that China will still support them even there are many countries who will against them.
Yeah, its all about business. China is a businessman and they jusf want to make money. They dont hold a gun to anyone's head and make them sign deals. Bags of cash maybe but not force Grin Aside from that China is already Russia's primary trading partner. Sanctions or no sanction that will no change for a long time. As long as Russia provides China with cheap natural gas, nothing will happen to their relationship.

A mountain of gold would not be enough for a greedy person.
But, a plate of food is enough for a grateful person


Always grateful every day. it is the key to happiness. if you are never satisfied or quickly satisfied is also not good. Always self motivated to do better and learn from experience. if it doesn't go as planned, stay grateful. whatever happened let it happen now it's time to move on and keep positivity. This is what I always try to apply every day.

In our life, no matter how rich you are, how rich you become if you are greedy you will never have enough. And so always be poor. Just like in trading if you are too greedy, and not contented of what you have, you will end up lossing your money. In other words you will never be a successful trader. Satisfaction is very important part in our life.Always remember that not always more money can give you the satisfaction but also some little happiness also give you satisfaction. So learn to be grateful with what you already have.
2556  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Keep calm and buy the dip! Told yah. on: March 03, 2022, 04:46:15 AM
Watch out and wait for the price to go down. At times, the market might not move in the direction we expect and it might jump up and we might not be able to buy at more dip. Hence, just buy at when you planed to buy, I mean, if you wish to buy a coin, just go ahead and buy the coin when you have the amount and hold them for few months and sell them off when you are satisfied with your profits.
The key thing here is to always trade with a good strategy even the price goes up or down. Most failures and loss of money or loss on investment usually happens when you invest without proper and enough knowledge of the market. Cryptocurrency trading for beginners isnt easy, but with the right skills and strategies you will be making more profit.
2557  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What did you learn about crypto trading? on: March 02, 2022, 09:45:27 AM
As what i have learned about trading, it is not just about making money but it is also how we handle ourselves or our emotions when making losses. If you've made consecutive losses, you should know when to stop. If you continue trade within that day knowing that it is not your lucky day, you'll just make bad decision. Don’t make the foolish mistake of revenge trading. Take a break and analyze your mistake.

Your plan and strategies are nothing if you dont know how to manage your emotions.
2558  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Be comfortable with your strategy! on: March 02, 2022, 09:00:05 AM
There are some strategy that may not work for you. Thats why we keep on trying another strategies that make us profitable. And its good see that you already find the right strategy that fits for you.  Smiley There are some people easily give up and get disappointed whenever they get failed with the strategy they used. Instead of finding the right one,they choose to quit.

Yes, we all know that trading is not easy as what others think. It is not a get rich-quick scheme but if you put a lot of efforts and knowledge. You'll gonna be rich. The more you take a risk, the more you will become profitable.
The personalization of the projects is the key here and you could basically do it anyway you want but you have to do it for your own mindset. I have talked about this before as well, strategies are not inherently good or bad, maybe there could be some bad, but one strategy can not be good for every single person. One style could be great for you while the other could be horrible. Or it could be great for you but bad for me, nobody knows.

It is a bit about your character, while you can't even wait 10 seconds to sell for a profit, I may wait for 10 days and that is the main difference. I have to say it is not really that easy for me to end up with a good result if we just keep on making new strategies that work for "everyone", which is impossible.
Thats why you need to do some research first before putting it into an action. Dont rely on others because each  one of us has its own style of strategies that is suit for our character. Having a successful trading is depend on how we handle our actions, it depends on strategies we've made.
2559  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: They will try to stop Bitcoin on: March 01, 2022, 06:59:50 AM
PoW was due to energy waste. Also China’s reason for banning Bitcoin has nothing to do with protecting the environment from harm. They should actually focus on the proper supply of energy.
It is not about energy consumption but the revenue. Government want to tax. Since they cannot able to control it, they rather choose to ban bitcoin. Even if several countries like (China, EU etc.) will merge, it is practically impossible to stop, because bitcoin is now too big. It gets harder and harder for anyone to control or stop it.

Let the government do what they want, but it would not stop people from using bitcoin..
2560  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Gonzalez vs Martinez on: February 28, 2022, 09:50:16 PM
Pandemic is one of the factors that affected the profitability of the fight, but as the crowd is already allowed to watch the boxing fight, the boxing entertainment industry will be able to recover and the opportunity to make a big bucks is going to be present again, timing is very important as of course no promoter would promote a fight if they will not make money from their investment.

We just have to live with it since there's no other choice. The good thing that will happen this year is, we have lots of lineup of good fights at any weight class. More bets, more entertainment, and we will see our favorite boxer now on the ring.

We hope for no more delays, cancellations,s, and suspensions this year.

The bout between Gonzalez vs Martines is one of the boxing events that need to push through.
In some countries, they allow the fight with the audience, but in other countries, that still does not allow the pandemic again with the new variant. But yes, I agree that boxing fights can recover and make money again like before, especially if they can get many promotions from the media. The boxing fight news between Gonzalez vs Martines should be everywhere to take attention from people so they will see that the boxing fight is trying to rise from the pandemic. And with many promotions for that fights, it will get that attention.
There are always a lot of options to sell the fight, if the audience is not allowed, they can be aggressive in their marketing in selling the PPV subscription. I'm sure the promoters will make money from this fight as it's a big fight, an entertaining one, so it will guarantee that the fans will not be bored watching it.

This fight was supposed to be the Gonzalez vs Estrada trilogy, but I believe this is still a good fight although Martinez is just a replacement.
