2541  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Mark Magsayo vs Rey Vargas WBC Featherweight Title (July 9) on: May 02, 2022, 03:53:55 AM
Are the odds already available?

Rey Vargas has a very good record, https://boxrec.com/en/proboxer/542148
35 wins and 22 of that are coming from KO. That was impressive.

Honestly, I don't trust Magsayo completely in this fight as I was a bit disappointed with the way he fight in his previous fight although he won. I don't know this Vargas but if Magsayo will not improve his style, I think he will experience his first defeat.
Vargas has more experience than Magsayo so this alone has put Vargas into an advantage from this fight. However, both boxers have been good in winning from KO so if Magsayo will manage to stop the fight through KO, he will probably win this game. But seeing how he fought with his last opponents, his boxing skills is not as good and impressive as how Vargas manage to win in the ring. So i'd go with Vargas this time.

Yeah, maybe Magsayo might regret his decision to fight Vargas. One thing though, Magsayo is very ambitious, saw some clips in Youtube and him and Roach are really targeting a unification in this division. So the chances for Magsayo might be slim because Vargas is a high level fighter. And we can do is that Magsayo will prepare a good game plan how to offset Vargas because based on reach and height, Vargas has the advantage.

Osaka though and Sakkari is out already.

This is what I was talking about the other day, about how women's tennis is so unpredictable. In Madrid, we are now through to the last 16... so in theory most matches should be a player seeded 1-8 vs a player seeded 9-16... except out of the top 8 seeds, only the #8 seed is left, everyone else got knocked out already (alright, Swiatek withdrew before the tournament started, but that's the exception). There's no-one (other than Swiatek) that I'd feel confident betting on.

To be honest, that's one reason I usually stay away from the women's side, because as you have said it's unpredictable.

I look at who beat Osaka and she is Toribes Tormo, maybe she has the advantage of the weather. Nevertheless it is still an upset because I expect Osaka to at least move into the next round and chances are, if she is going to bow out of the tournament, it should be against rank opponent.
2543  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Crawford vs Spence on: May 02, 2022, 02:48:05 AM
Definitely, fans are willing to pay to watch this fight live and thru PPV. It's going to be the biggest fight in the welterweight division since the Pac-May and could be in the top 5-10 as far as PPV number goes.

Just scary though how Spence beat Ugas as he dominated him and we thought that it's going to be a close fight.

So it's hard to see who will win between this two great fighters, but I might be leaning towards Bud Crawford as great fighters adjust in the middle of the fight.

Well crypto is an open community, so no one can stop someone from creating their own token. So it's really up to the project itself if they want to stay relevant. They have to offer us something new, unique that has never been developed before.

In any case it's a copy cat project then it will just saturate the market. However, I don't think they will continue to live in the ecosystem. Sooner or later they will die a natural death.

Nothing new here, I mean there have been governments around the world, shifting towards CBCD. I'm not against it, specially if it will help the citizens do transactions with the government much faster with their digital fiat. But I don't like it being force to the citizens though, at least India should not be anti-crypto. They should understand of all the countries, that this is a new technology that can shape the future of one of the largest population.
2546  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Canelo Alvarez vs Dmitry Bivol - May 7 on: May 01, 2022, 05:01:53 AM
I haven't seen Canelo underestimate his opponents though that's why he is very successful. His work ethics and attitude have been mold to really train with 100% and give his everything in every fight.
I have seen an exclusive interview, he seems to be arguing with demetrius andrade and Cenelo said some harsh words but he doesn't seem like the grumpy type, he is a very cold person and he will vent his anger with hard punches during boxing matches. So I think Canelo is very wise in discussions but as a normal person, patience also has its limits.

It's because Andrade has been calling out Canelo for the longest time. The problem with Andrade is that he has no bargaining power and so Canelo will obviously get mad at him because for him Andrade is just looking for a payday before he retires. So yes, he is calm but calculated boxer. And he always just wanted to fight the best just like Bivol in this weight class.

There's no doubt about that because even if Canelo would fight a certain boxer but the promoter sees it not a profitable fight, then that wouldn't happen. Boxing is business, we are always talking about profit over the personal interest of a fighter, and Canelo's job is just to fight, while the promoter's job is to ensure that the fight will generate the expected money.

Yes, that is another angle as well, not good revenue for the promoters, hence they are not willing to give the fight to Andrade. Although again, he is American, he is not well know as compare to the last fighters that Canelo fought. So doesn't make sense for Canelo so he chooses Bivol and then will go after GGG. So more money for him and his promoters.
2547  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Katie Taylor vs Amanda Serrano on: May 01, 2022, 04:00:39 AM
What a classic fight between the two, in the end it was Katie Taylor, edging Amanda Serrano in a split decision.

Scores were: Benoit Russell (96-94) had Serrano ahead, judges Glenn Feldman (97-93) and Guido Cavalleri (96-93) for Taylor.

Based on numbers the fight seems to be volume vs accuracy, but Taylor's accuracy was enough to win it for the 2 judges.

Anyone can share a link of the fight for free?  Grin

Anyhow, I agree that this fight is hard to bet because of the contrasting style, majority favors Valdez because of his power but the odds for Shakur is like went from 1.14 to 1.11. So again, smart money goes to Shakur but underdog bettors love the odds they see on Oscar but probably putting a small to medium bet, I reckon.

I guess it will just continue to exists in crypto space but I don't think it will have a real use unless the devs come back and revived the project.

So it will be just used by Elon to further his agenda, to make money and make his new company be the top social media in the market. But it might be good for those who have been holding Doge for a long time as it will make money for them.

Yeah, I would agree that Stake is one of the best referral system that we have. I mean they are established already so it make sense that they have been well known because of a good referral system they have put in since the beginning.

So competitions are tough and it's a win win situation for us gamblers specially  who are into the referral business because each casino will have to come up with a good marketing and plan to remain on top.

Not really sure what you are trying to drive up, but crypto trading is not the same as gambling though wherein you have the element of luck to win.

You really need to understand and analyze how the market works so that you can predict ahead what will be the next movement. And you technical analysis enters the picture, yes, it's not a perfect and exact but at least there is tools that can help you in your trading.
2553  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: April 30, 2022, 04:38:35 AM

This isn't boxing speculation, odds, or predictions but more on a discussion. No thread fits this topic so I will put it here:

Donaire: Casimero should not be stripped of WBO title

Nonito Donaire was convinced that John Riel Casimero should not be stripped of the title by the World Boxing Organization because according to him, Casimero made the weight but wasn’t given the rules and regulations to know about related to the sauna.

Donaire said the use of a sauna is not generally illegal. Actually, he was fairly right about that but as I shared here, the sauna rules are against the British Boxing Board of Control. Filipino Boxing Veteran analyst Atty. Ed Tolentino even pointed out that's already been part of the BBBofC rules since 1929. The analyst debunked the idea of Casimero being set up in Liverpool.

Instead, he blamed the lack of knowledge of Team Casimero regarding the use of the sauna.

It's now 48 hours since the ultimatum and deadline gave to Casimero to defend his side on why shouldn't he be stripped of the title. I'm looking for some updates regarding that but found nothing.

I'm also trying to find some updates regarding on that matter if Casimero was truly stripped on his WBO title but it seems that they are still reviewing his case because it is also not that easy to strip someone of his belts and they are looking on every angle because there are some also rumors that these were planned ahead of time. Either way, I'm hoping that Casimero learned his lesson.

What do you guys think, is this planned all along by the opposing team? I hope not but it's also hard to deny not to look that way because Butler and his camp has been throwing rocks all along even before Casimero haven't caught in the act. I have read in the past that Probellum's main boy is Butler and with Casimero on the same roof would definitely cause rivalry that only one will continue to rise.

It's really hard to say if this is the plan all along because it doesn't sound right. But I suspect that the team of Casimero is not really aware of such rule coming from British boxing commission and for sure they have been doing sauna to get out that excess weight and he might not be the first boxer to do. It's that the career of Casimero now is turning into waste, we don't know if he can fight again this year.
2554  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Davis vs Romero: May 28 on: April 30, 2022, 04:02:55 AM
When I saw Gervonta Davis for the first time, I thought is was just another rap singer. But turns out he is a boxer. A very good boxer indeed.

Can someone explain, why Rolando Romero is such an underdog in this fight and there is such a huge gap in odds? Coz Davis fought more experienced boxers and is more experienced? From wikipedia info, both of them have 0 losses, which makes them identically good.

Is it because of his skin color and aura that's why you assumed he's a rapper? I hope that's not the reason.

You already answered your question on why Romero is the underdog and why not Gervonta Davis, yes both have a clean record but Davis have more than Romero and he defeated much heavier names in the industry than Romero who's just picking a fight that he think he can defeat. The latter is not like that, just look at their past opponents. You'll see more famous names on Davis's rapsheet rather than Romero's.

Most black athletes dress just like the rapper, it music industry has a lot of influence on sports and vice versa.

Yes, Davis wanted to have a name but he pick the wrong fighter I guess. So we will see, they dislike each other so that is a good story board for Floyd to make this fight happen. Nevertheless, Davis is favor by a huge margin.
2555  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING] George Kambosos vs Devin Haney - Undisputed Lightweight Title - June 5 on: April 29, 2022, 07:32:25 AM
^^ They've seen that they have been criticized after the Manny Pacquiao fight. So I think they will not make the same mistakes in a high boxing match like this because all eyes will be on Australia again.

So it's better for Kambosos to really show that he dominated the fight by all means so that there will be no controversy if he won by a decision in his home court.

The odds in losing the match are definitely going to be infinitely better for Devin Haney. Which is a far better way of saying Haney does not stand a chance against George Kambosos.

The Manny Pacquiao fight was a total disaster, I doubt that they are going to go down that route a second time. I mean it was just a bit too sterile, even for the fans. George Kambosos Jr. said that he is grateful for the time boxing legend Manny Pacquiao has spent with him inside the ring. So no disrespect to legends.

Fight will be interesting.

Haney is favorite in this fight, so he has a good chance to win even if it is going to be held at George Kambosos back yard.

Of course many have pointed out that the Manny fight was really a disaster as it was obvious a homecook decision for their boy. But they have learn their lessons and maybe the camp of Haney knows about this one and probably will not allow it to happen. AFAIK, boxers will also have the final say as who will judge their fight so they have the right to say no to someone who they think that are not going to be fair.

I am not sure which cave you crawled out of but Devin Haney is going to definitely lose big time. That is why I said that "the odds in losing the match are definitely going to be infinitely better for Devin Haney". This means that the odds of Haney going belly up in the fight are higher, therefor, he has bad odds at winning. You might have gotten confused by the meaning, which is ok. Not everybody can understand nuances perfectly.

Haney definitely is also not the favorite in this fight. Everybody seems to be cheering for George Kambosos.

I'm basing everything on what the current odds are:



So obviously Haney is the favorite in the fight. So it's ok if you haven't check the bookies as you might not be interested in betting in this fight.
2556  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Recovers Amid Bull Trap Warning on: April 29, 2022, 06:26:31 AM
The title along is misleading.
Did Bitcoin really recovered? I guess nah, that's more like of a dead cat bounce.
That temporary recovery has perfectly synced during Twitter announced that they have accepted Elon's offer to buy their company.
I'm just not sure If that was just a coincidence or people are giving into another Elon hype for a moment.

Yea, dead cat bounce, bull trap, anything that we can call what Bitcoin price movement is doing in the last 2 weeks or so.

We are still below $40,000 though, so there is no recovery but just another push maybe by the bulls to defend that price again because that's where we should stand. The hype of Elon Musk is complete already, there will be no increase maybe until the 2nd week of May.
2557  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Mark Magsayo vs Rey Vargas WBC Featherweight Title (July 9) on: April 29, 2022, 02:50:06 AM

I guess that's what Filipino wanted to be, a underdog and then show the world what they can do, LOL.

We might not like how Magsayo won against Russell because the latter in injured, but that is still a win for Magsayo. On the contrary, I don't think that this is going to be a hard fought match for Magsayo, I will be betting for him if he will be the underdog in this fight.

Yeah! it's still a win for him and let's hope that if he ever wins this upcoming fight, he will gonna show different skills that will gonna make the audience remember how he wins it. As we all know, he is not that known in the US yet because he hasn't shown more fights that we have witnessed in the Pacquiao era, though it's hard to copy how Pacquiao's boxing journey was in the USA, Magsayo needs to work hard to create his legacy as well while he still has a chance because an opportunity like this has not been given to the other Pilipino boxers who has some real boxing skills until they retired.

They have seen Magsayo in the Russell fight, but definitely the US audience is not that impressed because again, Russell is hurt and can't fight 100%. But now this is a great opportunity for Mark to let the US audience that he is a good boxer and should be given respect in the ring specially if he can knock out Vargas in this fight. And then maybe he can carved his own name in the US soil after this fight.

^^ Yeah, I like both of the odds, it's really very attractive because Oscar Valdez is the underdog although we all know that he has a good and solid power in both hands.

I'm sure that smart money might go with Stevenson, but those bettors who will back up Valdez as the underdog because of that great odds and I think the bookies might have put it wrong to have that kind of odds for him.

LOL, I'm not familiar with this player, maybe I will check out the highlights of this match and see if for myself,  Grin

Madrid started for girls today so some good matches there but I did not have time to make any bets.

I haven't make any bet yet, but I see some upsets already, Pliskova lost to fellow Bouzkova in two sets.

Sabalenka as well to Anisimova in three sets.

2. Liquidity of the asset you want to trade

3. Fees

4. Security

All of this seems to point out to top exchanges so this is a good start to the OP. Of course there are a lot of exchanges, nevertheless they are not established yet so that is a factor that you need to take into account as well.
