Maybe they can settle this out of court so that Casimero can fight Butler as scheduled this April.
I hope it would happen that way but this is business, it's the interest of the business that should be followed, if Casimero broke a contract, then the MP promotion has the right to sue him as they also invested in him, besides, Casimero would not be popular if he did not sign with the MP promotion, unfortunately, Casimero is not contented with this popularity now.

Yes, hopefully it won't be that case. MP can sue and ruin his career in case that's the case.

Or, it's also possible that it's just another way to hype this fight and bring the attention, negative writeups still
a good way to advertise and have a discussion about him.

But in the serious note, I also hope that he will continue his success. Winning this fight will bring him up and
continue holding his belt..

Nah, I seriously don't think that this is a kind of publicity stunt to hype the fight and besides, this issue is too negative for Casimero if the goal is to bring an attention to his name and if indeed this issue were true then he will likely be sued by the MP Promotions if that's the case. They better settle it privately soon because Casimero's career will be endangered.

I will got with team LeBron this year and I hope I am right but overall , I expect a great show not like last night when I had to find motivation to keep looking at Dunk Contest... . I get it that the top dunkers don't want to join but come on , at least try to force them to compete ? for the show and fans...because this is what sports suppose to be sometimes , right ? pure entertaining for the fans around the world and that dunk contest was awful.

The all star game is a crap shoot since both teams have enough fire power to win.  I went with the under and the first quarter they scored 92 points lol.  Second quarter is much lower and I'm hoping in the fourth they take it serious and start locking each other down.  So far so good.  Tight game getting towards half.

I understand you mate. Since they changed the format, the All Star game became a bit boring but yeah we already know what would happen and still chooses to bet on whoever team has more firepower or chance and for that I bet on the Team LeBron.

Team LeBron have won the game, and Stephen Curry of the Team LeBron was hailed as the All-Star MVP.
Final Score: 163-160
Congratulations to all who have won the bet Grin
2603  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: February 21, 2022, 06:12:40 AM
What a wonderful All-Star game this year, they managed to overcome the boring Dunk contest yesterday and turned this one into an unforgettable moment. Steph has thrown threes in his usual range where the other players cannot stop him and finally, Team Lebron won the game, All-Star MVP is Stephen Curry. even though Team Durant has been leading the game throughout the quarters, Team Lebron managed to come back and beat them in the last minutes of the 4th Quarter.


Curry is really awesome, he didn't seem to change from back when he was a nobody and I dare say that he much more likely improved, especially his 3 point shooting game. Curry is going to be the next GOAT after Lebron if he isn't already. I don't really have problems with the Dunk contest though, it's still cool to me though although I find the lacking of new dunk tricks.

Ohh, nice! At least the All-Star game wasn't as boring as the Slam Dunk, I mean, the contest was too plain and generic because I didn't saw any aggressive dunks.
Curry is still living and playing on his prime years, he will still be the 3-point king in his generation as he have still many seasons left to attend before he decides to leave the league.

Pick for the day:

Bolts -5.5 @1.91 vs ROS, Bishop and company will bounce back against ROS.
Beermen vs Kings, no odds yet but will bet on the Beermen once the market/odds for this game is open.

I like the Bolts -5.5, they definitely bounce back but I would stay away on the 2nd game Beermen and Kings as it's hard to decide since both teams really need a win. If at some point I will change my decision, I guess I'm going with the Ginebra Kings as Brownlee is still my favorite import.
Bolts will surely win on this, I’m confident on this one. Ginebra really have to win since they are still at the bottom, Brown Lee should get the help he needed from his team so they can back on track, I’ll go for Ginebra as well because I still believe on them so they should do better this time and waste no opportunity to take a win.

The game has already started and Bolts are behind a bit, but I'm sure they'll carve their way to win and cover the spread. ROS is not a bad team, but the import of the Bolts is quite better than ROS import and he makes the team better, so I'm sticking with my pick and remain hopeful for a win.

They managed to flip the table on the 3rd quarter especially when Maliksi decided to stepped up and carry the team until the end, good thing they won and bounced back from their last defeat against North Port. But sadly they didn't cover the spread, it was just a point shy though. Better luck next time mate!
2605  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: what gives Bitcoin it value? on: February 20, 2022, 01:44:55 PM
in my own understanding about what gives Bitcoin it value I think it because of it higher demand in the society in the sense that the more Bitcoin is been mined and  the more it been wanted by people, the higher the value becomes. therefore Bitcoins value lies in it scarcity and increasing demand.

 if the price of one Bitcoin where to reach 514,000, Bitcoin market capitalization would reach approximately 15% of the global currency market.


https://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/100314/why-do-bitcoins-have-value.asp#:~:text=Bitcoin%20demonstrates%20some%20attributes%20for,of%20the%20global%20currency%20market.

what do you think?
Bitcoin has a value because of its ability to become global currency. Bitcoin can be use in some many ways ( store of value,medium of exchange and investment) Bitcoin also get value from trust. The more people believes and use bitcoin,the more it becomes valuable.

Don't you forget your psychological behavior towards trading as it was more crucial than anything else. You may have a perfect system, a trading plan, etc. but if your resolve towards this journey isn't firm then consider it as a failure in the very beginning. Maybe you can put that on the list.
Yeah right, having the right strategy isnt good enough if you dont know how to manage emotions towards trading. Do not let your emotions ruin everything coz it can give you bad results .Trading psychology is your foundation, and without it your trading will end up faster. And possibly leads you to stress and anxiety. Having discipline and consistency is the key to success.
2607  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How I convinced a Stock Trader to Invest in Bitcoin on: February 20, 2022, 06:02:27 AM
At any instance we should not guarantee them with the profit. This looks like pressuring the users to get into cryptocurrency investment beyond their interest.
Trying to get someone to invest in bitcoin is the wrong approach..It is unlikely for anyone to put their money where they dont want to invest.And if there is any time in which your advice was wrong temporarily,surely you will be the one to blame.Do not convince anyone otherwise. Let them study the pros and cons and make their own decision

It depends on how you want to invest.You need to plan and decide properly before you go for such an investments.Having some money in bitcoin is a good idea,but investing in altcoin is also a good way to make money.However,altcoin can give you a negative returns and is more riskier than bitcoin.Choosing the wrong altcoin might have ending up losses and no one wants that.So invest carefully..

I'd actually be interested in seeing a Warriors and Lakers matchup in the playoffs.The views would be insane and the energy would be crazy in both courts. When Stephen Curry,Klay Thompson,Klay, Kevin Durant involved in the game, you know its always an iconic game.. Cool

It will be very interesting game to watch , this are big teams that have wonderful players who are professional in basket ball.  So the game will be interesting and tough at the same time, their will be massive scores from the both teams, warriors and lakers has been my favourite teams  in the NBA.

That might be true, but the chances of Lakers to win the series against the Hot Warriors are quite low. I mean we all know that this season, the LA Lakers have been struggling and still trying to figure out what to do to make the roster great in every game. Time by time, Lakers are showing some improvements but I think it is a bit too late, aren't they? Especially now that the regular season is already over.
2610  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Casimero vs Butler ordered by WBO on: February 19, 2022, 06:44:33 AM
Good news.
There is no turning back.
And if there are rumors about the match being canceled or delayed again, don't expect that to happen. The world is going back and most of the events are going on with the audiences.
Well, that's a motivation not just for Casimero but also for Butler.

The fight has been delayed and we want this fight to happen as soon as possible because there are lots of possibilities if Casimero wins this fight by knockout. He can challenge more strong boxers or go for a championship match-up in the higher-weight division. either way, I'm glad that he is returning back again and we can see more of his boxing skill this upcoming fight. Hope that he will not play or underestimate his health condition again and he continue to put his effort to make this fight looks good for the fans. We already know that he badly wants to fight Inoue, maybe they will have some discussion or negotiation after this fight.

He will definitely look at his weight issues, and regardless of who is going to be his nutritionist, he/she will have to take it a closer look because Casimero has problems before. And it seems he is getting world class nutritionist so maybe that issue will be eliminated now. And so he can focus more on the fight itself and go for a knock out victory.

Casimero, have been preparing for this match since last year even before he was diagnosed with a viral gastritis. So there's nothing to worry about the fight as we know he already got it instead he should focus more about his health, because if he will neglect it then it will get worse until the fight happens and it will be a huge problem.

But knowing that he is now have the "world class" nutritionist then I bet he can now balance things up without worrying too much because he already have someone to look about his health prior to the fight.

For having that on their team then provably we cannot see him encounter the same health issue again and I'm sure that Casimero will always look at his health also train more harder as he have a huge fight await after this. But if he cannot make the fight between Inoue to happen but atleast he can also fight Donaire since this is also what fans speculated fight to see for sure many people will also get hype if this fight is in discussion between them.

We sure hope so that he won't be experiencing the same health issue again especially now that he only have less than 60 days left to train before the fight. Nevertheless, we know that his team are seriously watching him up close and monitor him on daily basis. Obviously, Casimero is already well prepared for his fight against Butler.

We can't tell for now but lots of fans are already rooting that Casimero could fight Inoue after this one.

Welcoming foreign teams is a sign that PBA is slowly dying.

You have a point, they are looking for a partnership to expand their league or their business because they understand that it will never work if they will stick with the current setup that the SMC and Pangilinan are the major investors. With the partnership, the league will become more competitive but at the same time it will also limit the talents to participate, maybe some of them will have room in the MPBL.
2612  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING]: RYAN GARCIA vs EMMANUEL TAGOE - April 9 on: February 19, 2022, 04:23:42 AM
So here are the odds as per sportsbet.io

Ryan Garcia - 1.08
Emmanuel Tagoe - 6.60

So there is a huge gap as far as the odds goes. And it seems that Ryan Garcia is a sure win to win this fight.

No other betting options available though, might be better to bet on which exact rounds will Garcia will win, or the range of rounds.

There will surely be more betting options available in the coming days. For now, the opening odds are limited to money line betting. I also checked the odds days ago and they are quite discouraging. Although I could place a minimum bet for Tagoe for the sake of the high return but I really doubt he could defeat Ryan. But who knows what effects Ryan Garcia's more than one year of inactivity has to his boxing power and skills? Somebody might think it is worth the risk. For me, I'd rather wait for more options.

For a long shot, a Tagoe bet will be really be attractive, maybe he could upset Garcia. But as you have said, this is Ryan's comeback fight so for sure he wants us to be impressed with him again so I doubt that he will allow an upset from a relatively unknown fighter. So as I have said, for us who are not a whale but smart bettor, we will rather wait for other options so that we can get bang for our money. And if ever we lose it's not that huge amount.

There's a possibility that an upset will happen, but just like what the odds are saying,  the chance is very slim because Ryan Garcia is a popular fighter, a champion while Tagoe is an unknown fighter who is only good on record but has not fought yet a legit champion in boxing.

The maximum number of bitcoins that can be issued is fixed.
Eighty percent of the coins have already been mined.

Very interesting topic.

Well, As i see it..Once all 21 million bitcoins have been mined,there will be no more economic incentives for miner and the entire cryptocurrencies will collapse..People who owned bitcoin will hold it,for the vision of higher returns..
What do you think will happen to the price after all the bitcoins have been mined?
What do you think will happen to the price once all the bitcoins are mined.
The price of bitcoin will gonna be more expensive because there are no more bitcoins circulated...
2614  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: February 18, 2022, 05:18:58 PM
^^ Previously, they have Drummond to relived Embiid and play as center and he was really effective. And now that he is gone, for sure they are going to play small just like the rest of the other teams in the NBA.

So it's a good win for them, although I have the Bucks on this one to win and cover the spread, it was really a close and very intense game and that is good enough for me even though I lost my bet.

That was a good bounce back by the Sixers, they lose to the Celtics in a big margin and now they beat the Bucks at home, I already smell a possible ECF between the two teams and I can see the Sixers have a great chance to beat the defending champion.
After losing by 48 points to the Celtics, they bounced back and defeat the Bucks at their home.

If today is the end of the regular season, these 2 teams will meet on the Semi-Finals if they win both. Now with regards to who will win between the both of them, I think I will go with the Bucks with this. With their current roster, I don't think that they can defeat the Bucks. Nobody can stop Giannis except for Embiid and for me, their small ball isn't that effective like how the Warriors are doing their small ball team. No disrespect with the Sixers though and they are a good team but they trade too many players just to get Harden who is injured as of this moment (hamstring) so right now we don't know when he will play. Its just my opinion though Smiley. The ball is round and anything can happen.

Good thing they managed to bounce back and of course Embiid made a spectacular points in the game before the regular season ends.

I can't tell about who is likely to meet in the Semis yet because there's still the Heats and Bulls, and they will be a threat in the East along with the Bucks and 76ers. Anything now is just a speculation about the 76ers roster if they can really survive towards the Semis with Harden as a new player and we can't conclude about that yet until they play together. Anyways, Harden is set to make his appearance and make a debut on 25th against Timberwolves.

~ Seth Curry had two nice games and I'm curious about his performance after Kevin Durant comes back also.
I don't see any problem there but it all depends on how the coach uses both of them. I think he will remain a starter for the team while Patty Mills will come from the bench.

The better question here is who will be the starting guard when Irving is eligible to play. I bet Seth will come in as a sub. His minutes will be reduced also so expect his production to go down as well.

Regardless, Curry could still contribute to the team like he did in his previous team. I just don't see why his been traded many times despite the fact that he is a great contributor, especially on the offensive side.

Yes, He's been a good contributor. I'm also curious why he's been traded from time to time.

He keeps on improving, his confidence is far better now the trademark of being a Curry his outside shooting stroke provides
decent percentage, I'm looking forward to see him playing alongside with KD and Simmon.

Though for sure his minutes will be limited once the whole cast is complete, KD and Kyrie with Simmon and Mills.

Well, it's the loss of the 76ers that they let him go and maybe Seth Curry's destined for the Nets for him to grow more. Sure his performance are getting better and better, one day, his time will come that he won't be a substitute anymore. He deserves to be in the first 5 and more than being an underrated player.
2618  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The most reliable coin to invest in is Bitcoin. on: February 17, 2022, 08:17:09 AM
Hello.

I have been investing in Bitcoin as well as other coins for a long time. Some of these coins have disappointed me. After reviewing investments so far, I have found that investing in Bitcoin is the smartest thing. Although the price of Bitcoin has dropped a lot, this coin does not disappoint me because I have full confidence in this coin.
Of course it is. If you buy bitcoin and hold it for long-term, historically it has never given a negative return. In fact, you can be quite sure that the return will be better than most investment you can make. Bitcoin has a high risk but it also gives you a high reward. The raise of bitcoin has made a lot of investor rich or millionaire.  Thats why most people says "Bitcoin is the way of the future" and it is true. Many people has fulfilled there dreams because of bitcoin.

The reason why the market is confusing because it is fluctuating. It keeps changing every hour thats why we are so confused if it is going up or down.What goes up comes down and what goes down comes up or vice versa.. After every bear comes a bull. After every bull comes a bear. And thats how the market goes..The market is so unpredictable...
2620  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Tips for good trading on: February 17, 2022, 06:16:27 AM
I have seen many questions about how they are going to be a professional trader, so I just wanna share my experience, I am not a professional trader but I just wanna share some of my experiences and way of thinking in trading.

1. Trade at your own risk - You should know that investing, gambling and trading is somehow the same because you are not sure that you could win the prize, so expect that you could win and you could lose your money

2. Limit your budget - always limit your budget for trading, you should use only those extra money you have, instead of spending it on some other things, you may use it for trading, at least you made something to make it profitable.
These two are one the basic strategies that we need to follow.We all know that every business (trading and investing) has its own risk.Sometimes we win,sometimes we lose. But if we know how to control our money,we can also minimize our risk of making huge losses.


4. Learn from your own mistake - Instead of being sad because of losing try to think on some other thing why you get lost and think some good strategies to overcome those mistakes.

This is one of the best important thing that we need to know.Dont get so frustrated whenever you made big losses.It is a part of a business.

 Each of us can made a mistake but we should learn from it . Mistakes can teach us to be better in the future
