I'm sure everyone is expecting Brooklyn Nets with Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving to easily win their game against the Memphis Grizzlies without Ja Morant. Can't believe that even both KD and Kyrie combined for 70+ points, they still lose to a team without their main scorer.

Memphis Grizzlies really amazed us this season. They are doing well even without Morant.

Good thing that I hesitate to bet on that Nets handicap prior to the game. I should have pissed by now lol.

Count me on those people who are expecting that the Nets will win today against the Grizzlies with no Ja Morant Grin I got the Nets +2, I guess that was a trap and I was exactly baited.

Got to bounce back for tomorrow's games, below are my bets:
Suns +3 at Nuggets
Bulls -1 at Pelicans

Good Luck!
2582  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [ BOXING POLL ADDED ]: FURY vs WHYTE - CONFIRMED on: March 24, 2022, 04:08:13 PM
Votes in Poll: 32
Fury win: 29
Whyte win: 3
Draw: 0


Currently under 10% of the votes are for Whyte to win this fight. If he wins it will be a massive upset against Fury who is the odds on favourite to win. There are just 32 votes in the poll, I hope the number increases as we nearer the fight date.

I stand by my earlier views Fury will unify all the heavyweight belts and will make at least one successful defence before he retires as unbeaten champion.

I also expected that most of the people here in the forum are in the side of Tyson Fury rather than Dillian Whyte and just like me, I'm rooting that Tyson Fury will win this fight despite the huge difference in power these two boxers have. Either way, we will see what would be the result in this fight from exactly 1 month from now but I doubt that this the last fight of the Gypsy King, he's just bluffing Grin
Maybe many judge because Tyson Fury is the best in the current heavyweight era and another reason because looking at his record and rankings, Tyson Fury is much better than Dillian Whyte.
And I think he is guaranteed a win against anyone in his weight class because he is still the best, and yes we will see who wins because the vote stats are the result of their research and judgment.

Of course there would be many boxing fans that will favor the heavy favorite, including me and that's the current Heavyweight division champion Tyson Fury rather than the underdog Dillian Whyte, you know numbers don't lie and the stats really shows that Whyte here won't be the one who will give a stain in Fury's record, actually I think the man will retire undefeated.

I do not really understand why there are so many laudatory and good reviews about the film Belfast?  I think that this is a rather mediocre film, mixed with some kind of childhood memories of the screenwriter and some kind of local nostalgia for the old days.  Completely boring and not very interesting film. 
I will be surprised if the academicians will award him in any nominations. 
I didn't like the movie.
Well, on a light note, you don't necessarily have to like a movie before other people likes it, remember the old saying "one man's food is another man's poison", this saying is not limited to food alone, it's relevant in almost everything including movies, it highly possible that a movie you don't like ends up being another person's favorite.

Makes me remember even now, most of the movies I watch, my wife hates them, and some times, I hate some of her choice of movies too, for this reason, we mostly don't watch movies together.
But comparing every movie generally , I did say all movies are good, it is us as individuals who choose which to like and which to dislike.

Exactly mate! We have to accept that we have our own type of views that others don't share because of that facts that we have our own different choices and wants in every aspects of like including the movies. There are also times that we can meet some people that share the same view with us, but times like that are not too often. Let's just respect each other Smiley

Gonna lay some hard bets against them while those 2 are out.  Should be easy money.

You nailed it, I missed the last two games but in their next game, I think I'm gonna follow you on that. They have a game tomorrow against the Heat, they are on a back to back, do you think the Heat would cover the -7 spread?

Could be, I mean the Warriors now aren't that fresh from the Magic game and it's a back to back game so it's not that they could be at their A-game this time, also they're impaired now and without Curry they could still definitely lose especially against the Heats.

So yeah, I think that there is a high chance that the Miami Heat could cover the spread.
2585  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: March 23, 2022, 08:00:21 PM
~~~~
I am betting for them but with +6.5 today against the Miami Heat. I still believe they may end this in a close game but a little doubt to win it.
Over 212.5.


Good luck mate, you are betting on a desperate team, they will find a way to win here and if they could compete with the energy of the Miami Heat, they might win or at least cover the spread if they lose.

Miami lose to 76ers in their previous game, they might bounce back with a win here, but either way, good luck to you.



My pick is Brooklyn winning against Memphis.
It's a road game so I expect Kyrie to be available.

Betting on the Warriors against the Heat? That sure need some guts and balls to make that bet, that's a tough bet so also a GL here.

I will gladly follow you on that Brooklyn Nets +2.0 bet that Kyrie Irving this time against the Memphis without Ja Morant. I'll also add Phoenix Suns -1.5 on my bet today.

There's also an another interesting game tomorrow, it's the Lakers vs 76ers but I will just try to bet it live because I'm not sure that 76ers could really cover the spread but I know they will win.
2586  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Errol Spence Jr vs. Yordenis Ugas 3-Belt Welterweight Unification Match on: March 21, 2022, 01:36:42 PM
^^ Right, I think only few people are expecting an upset in this fight. Spence is the favorite for nothing, although Ugas seems to be a formidable opponent in paper and both have their advantages and disadvantages, Spence is about a complete fighter as we can get in the welterweight division. Tall, power in both hands, tight defense, ring IQ. Ugas is a good fighter, no question about it, but Spence is going to beat him in my opinion.

The only weakness I see for Spence is that he was inactive for over a year, while Ugas was actively fighting and continues to train hard to improve. Well, on paper, it's really Spence who has the advantage, the record comparison alone made us easily decide who is better. However, this time, both are champions fighting for a chance to be a unified champion, it should be an intense fight.

A lot of what if, hopefully we will see how Davis can perform if he goes back, but it seems a lot cause already for the Lakers.

Because until now we still believe that the Lakers will make it.

Before the season starts, they are in the top 3 favorites to win the championship, that's due to the hype of Westbrook.
Imagine how powerful their roster are, they had already LBC and Davis, and they added WB, so people really got hype without knowing the Lakers sacrifice their 2nd unit who help them win a championship before.

One thing is for sure when it comes down to finances and money investment then wall street is what is most important.
And im not educated but i have connections and experinces that average JOE can only dream about.

And wall street told me btc will be ath  100,000$ next year february.
You guys not been good but its a christmas i make little gift to you as you will know when its a bull run now.


So now where are your social friends and where are your experience?  i thought you are not like an average JOE?

and also where is that 100k in February? we are almost in April now and yet we did not even see a 50k or Half of that 100k expectation?

and  where is our christmas gift as you said?  Grin


Calm down man, LOL.

Maybe OP was so confident that time and he was so certain, but here we are, the market remains unpredictable and maybe even satoshi who founded it cannot predict the right price movement.

Maybe let's prepare for the worst as we cannot assure that we already see the dip, there's a possibility that bitcoin will continue to dump and will cause another panic. It's safe to expect that after the bear market, we will expect a new bullish season.

Also, my basis is the history of crypto and at this point of view, it seems like I already see this kind of scenario in the past.

It's not Zelensky's government only because people are also affected, so the right word to use is "Ukraine ".

I hope they'll survive, but with how aggressive Russia is in pursuing their goal, they will only stop if Ukrain will surrender to Russia and Russia will take over the government.

After winning their game today, the Minnesota Timberwolves still holding their chance to get out from the play-in tournament curse and get to the number 6 or number 5 if Mavericks and Nuggets continue losing their games in the coming days. We are less than a month before the play-in start and after that, it will be the playoffs tournament where the games are super intense. On that day, we will see them play like there is no tomorrow, and if a struggling team won't fix the way they play before that, they're doomed to be eliminated in the first round of the tournament.
All of the sudden the Minnesota Timberwolves started to be more competitive by winning games.
As we can see in the standing - https://www.espn.com/nba/standings.. they are very close with the Denver, Dallas, and Utah, and I'm very impressed because they only lose 1 game in their last 10 games.
I'm impressed, that's because Towns get back in the lineup and they start winning again. They had a pretty bad start but people have already forgotten that because they keep winning again. That 9-1 in the last 10 games is something they cannot achieve in the past, they really improve this season, probably because some teams are struggling, like the Lakers and Clippers.

It's a trick for most people because the majority of the people are employees and they would certainly suffer from the high inflation rate of a country. Unlike those who are in the business sector, they can always makes an adjustment as they are in control of their business, and being a business owners, they'll make sure that they still operate profitably.
2594  Economy / Economics / Re: China's strategy on the Ukraine invasion war on: March 20, 2022, 11:42:24 AM
China is satisfied with the response of US to the Ukraine Invasion by Russia, so it's not unlikely for China to also make its own move against Taiwan and do the same as what Russia is currently doing. The weak country will always lose the war and we know how far the US and European countries will respond to this kind of war.

They can't play the same weapon, they can just sanction a certain country but it would still not save the lives of the innocent people as that sanction will result in every playing its negative effect.
2595  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: March 19, 2022, 05:32:02 PM
I thought there's nothing wrong with Ben Simmons, I mean his not even seen the floor and yet he has some injury now?

But if it's true then definitely, they will need to win and make the playoff with Durant. So I guess this will be another bad year for the Nets and so much for the big 3 or even big 2 right now. So much has happen, now Harden is gone and then Kyrie's drama is still not over.

Simmons is definitely a strange player. First, he missed the bulk of the regular season due to mental problems, then he injured himself without even playing. To be honest, I even missed the moment when he managed to injure his back, although it doesn't matter.
By the way, the Nets are playing against the Blazers now, and I hope they will be able to win because they need at least three more wins to climb up the standings.

Don't mind Simmons, the kid is really having some mental problems because in the first place he wouldn't do that to his former team if his head is okay, right?

And now, he got himself injured twice even before playing and I don't think he can play this regular season for the said back problems. He better rest the entire reason because he will just be a liability in the team if ever he will play in the playoffs, and it's not the right time to do some experiments because it can be very risky for the team.

Anyway, they've won against the Blazers (128-123) Drummond and Seth have been playing great together with Durant.
2596  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Canelo Alvarez vs Dmitry Bivol - May 7 on: March 19, 2022, 05:02:48 PM
While you're true about that, I think we cannot take away Bivol's anxiousness towards his family because Russia is also in an imminent danger as the said country could be retaliated in any given time by other opposing countries who supports Ukraine and even if he's a professional boxer, he is still a normal human being. I'm just saying that everything is possible during the war.

Despite all these issues, I do also believe that this fight will belong to Canelo and Bivol here cannot possibly upset him, but if ever Bivol will then his career would be soaring high and Canelo will surely want a rematch.

It's undeniable that Canelo is the crowds favorite in this battle but I would like to give a hope to Dmitry Bivol to have a chance to ace this fight. I know how great fighter Canelo is and I believe Bivol could be a great opponent for this man. However, I am also hoping that whatever the current situation Russia was in now it may not fully affect the training preparation of Bivol for his upcoming fight. We truly cannot take away the anxious that Bivol's may felt because of the situation but he still needs to be professional and still need to prepare for this battle.

Of course, Bivol has a chance of beating Canelo, but you know, the crowd will favor the more popular boxer, and between the two it's Canelo who is more popular. I hope Bivol will take that as a challenge for him so he will be motivated to train hard and give his best in this coming fight. If Bivol will beat Canelo, he will make a headline in the world, so there's a big price waiting for him if he win.

Every successful boxer comes with popularity and not the other way around, well except for those Paul brothers because they've been already making names outside the industry. But back to the topic, based on popularity, Canelo has it and that's exactly why the people is considering him as the heavy favorite.

Yes, Bivol has the chance on defeating Canelo but only by a decision because I don't see him defeating the latter via KO. It's somehow impossible for me.
2597  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: March 19, 2022, 03:54:58 PM
I have 2 early bets that are sealed.
Brooklyn Nets vs Portland Trail Blazers - Nets -14.5
Atlanta Hawks vs Memphis Grizzlies - Grizzlies -5.5. According to injury reports, Ja Morant may play this one.
Good luck everyone.

I will follow you on those bets that you've sealed earlier.

The Brooklyn Nets will definitely dominate the Blazers here, they still need to win some more games to increase their chance in climbing the 6th spot. I have no doubt on that even if Irving can't play and the spread will be covered definitely, this time it's Nets -13 and I'll also add Nuggets -2.5 vs Cavaliers. GL! Grin

Yeah, when I check the odds I'm thinking that it is huge, but seeing how the Blazers have been losing games in their last 4 games, it was like 20 plus points and with Durant in the line up for Nets they could cover this easily.

But I'm more interested on the Grizzlies vs Hawks, same bet with you, Grizzlies proven that they can win games without Morant and still covered the spread.

Nets have won the game against the Blazers and that's good for them as they really need that win but sadly for us, they didn't cover the spread we got. Well, I guess we're not that lucky today because we definitely lost those bets that we've mention. Let's bet again because we also need to bounce back. LOL Cheesy

I got 3 road games on my list, here's mine:
Milwaukee Bucks -2.5 vs Minnesota Timberwolves
Dallas Mavericks -1.5 vs Charlotte Hornets
Los Angeles Lakers +2 vs Washington Wizards
2598  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING]: RYAN GARCIA vs EMMANUEL TAGOE - April 9 on: March 19, 2022, 03:08:22 PM
Those are great fighters but again with this match, i guess it been a tough decision making for gamblers who support on this but for me I go for Ryan Garcia we know he so fast to take any action and counter and also he has good footwork for having a speed reaction and make a good blow to the enemy but again we cannot underestimate Emmanuel Tagoe because he got the IBO lightweight that boxer really dream to fight each other so we cant wait for this fight.
By just simply looking at the numbers, Garcia is on the top here considering that he is still undefeated but of course, he should not be complacent because Tagoe is also a great boxer that he should take seriously. Yes, its not easy to place your bet but you have to make a good decision now because the math is fast approaching and you might not be able to get a good odds if you are late on placing your bet. They are both fighting for their dreams but for this match, I'll go for Garcia this time.

Same here, I've been comparing these two boxers for some time now since the OP made this thread and I didn't found any good indication that I'll put my bets on the not so known Tagoe rather than Garcia who has been undefeated for a while now since he emerged in the boxing industry. Surely numbers don't lie and based on their recent fights, I'm going for Garcia's side too.
2599  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Casimero vs Butler ordered by WBO on: March 19, 2022, 01:45:03 PM
Right, Casimero's mouth can be back by his fighting skills and that's what makes him different from others who only know how to talk and that's also why we cannot blame the way he talk because his actions also speaks for himself and he has every right to boast about it.
It's already on his character and that's why if he talks bad and he really means, he really means what he's saying and he has to prove that he's not all talk and cheap.

Somehow I think he now knows when to talk but I'm just not so certain about that, the thing why he's so silent now because maybe he was advised to keep some distance for a while from the people and social media so that he can be more focus on his training or maybe there's a surprise behind this, who knows.
That's good with him right now. Before he's going to talk even if it's no need to talk but he knows also when to become silent. People are starting to notice that unlike before, he's unstoppable when he's talking trash to his opponents.

Right, being talkative is already embedded in his character to the point that he's still trying to talk big even if he cannot talk in straight english language but I completely understand him because he was just also trying to prove some point.

I also noticed that lately, I really hope that he got some good sense and matured now to only talk when needed.
2600  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: GGG vs Murata - Reschedule on: March 19, 2022, 01:14:00 PM
I'm not saying that GGG is on the disadvantage here because we both know that GGG's power is way over than Murata's capabilities, I just find it interesting on what would the be the changes of GGG.
The chances are very high if we look at the betting odds.

https://www.oddschecker.com/us/boxing-mma/boxing/gennadiy-golovkin-v-ryota-murata

That is -700 in bet365, which means 87.5% implied probability.
We have our own opinion though and no one could change that, but betting odds are the opinion of most bettors.


Even without looking at the betting odds, we can quite compare Murata and GGG already and that these two boxers are in complete two different leagues but somehow we still cannot conclude what would exactly happen in the fight because there are also other aspects or factors we need to consider. However, judging by their stats and the probability we have right now then we can surely say that GGG has the advantage.
