Betting odds are out already, take it early as it might move tomorrow.

https://sportsbet.io/sports/basketball/philippines/pba-philippine-cup/matches

TNT KaTropa - 1.80
San Miguel Beermen - 1.98

Magnolia Hotshots - 1.60
Meralco Bolts - 2.30

Magnolia + SMB parlay = 3.168 (good odds for me as Magnolia will be a sure win in game 4)

Yup! LA Lakers doesn't have any win yet, 1st game was against the NETS 2nd game was against SUNS and now this game is against the GSW, next match will be against SUNS again eventually they will surely have anotehr hard time against them or we can see a comeback win for the LA Lakers.

Don't expect a comeback win by the Lakers now. They are not playing at their full. This pre-season is just for testing their chemistry and looking for some solutions if there will be a problem. I hope that once NBA season now officially commenced, those issues, if any, will be solved while they are working on it.

Yes, seems like preseason is not so important to them and they are not worried if they don't have a win.

But not a Laker fan lol. I want to see Bucks again at the Finals. Smiley

They are a defending champ, we cannot underestimate them, but if you like the to be on the NBA futures for bucks to win the championship (back to back), then I guess you should check this, https://www.vegasinsider.com/nba/odds/futures/

Bucks at +900 now.

I'm using https://mempool.space/ to monitor the fee, and I also see an increase in transaction fees yesterday but $10 is too much. The highest fee I paid for my transaction was only $2, well, it's a big higher compared to the past few days or few weeks, but I still find it cheap especially if I'm transacting a decent amount of money.

Just ride safely, meme coins are so hype but they could also dump, and hopefully, we will see that coming so we can make the right decision.

Looks like people forget DOGE already, they made it stagnant while they shift their interest on Inu, guys this is just a game, make sure you make a timely decision so your investment will not be stuck on a non-moving asset.
2605  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: October 08, 2021, 05:35:06 PM

It was a trap, SMB does not show their toughness in this game, they didn't even try to come back as the whole game ended up a well domination by the TNT.

We were not expecting that it's a trap, SMB did a great job on a comeback win in game 2 but they seem playing tired in game 3. Anyway, we can't change what happen but SMB still has game 4 to try to even the series and for sure they will make sure they will win and will not play catch-up game as they would usually lose on that scenario.
2606  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING] Jonas Sultan vs Carlos Caraballo - October 30, 2021 on: October 07, 2021, 08:47:18 PM

I think it's Sultan that was more experienced but Caraballo's dangerous resume of only having KOs on all his fight is the best  stat could ever have in this fight to side for. They both are in their primes and I guess that's how exhilarating this fight was.

This is such an interesting fight to watch both fighters are very promising and both hungry to get a world title crack, and this may well be a fight that could push them into the limelight, its power versus technicality between the two, I'm into technicality here we have seen how a technical boxer like Usyk beat a power puncher like Joshua.

True, both are capable fighters and both have their own technique but in the end it comes down to better training, physique and punch per pound. For sure, the fight will be an interesting one to see but I have a feeling Caraballo is going to push Sultan into a corner and a KO wouldn't be too far out of reach. We'll see...

If they want to train, they will train hard, that's given already, however, the difference is their talent in boxing and they developed it. There are a lot of hardworking boxers, but they don't win because there are only a few who have the talent in boxing, and I would say being undefeated, shows talent already so it's a challenge for Sultan on how to beat a power puncher who has never experience a defeat yet.
2607  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: October 07, 2021, 01:40:15 PM

It does not look good for Lebron vs Curry match-up, lol. Although Lebron is the captain of the Lakers, I like to see a showdown between Westbrook and Curry as these are players who are explosive enough when they play. Of course, when Klay comes back (provided he is healthy), it will be a different story as the warriors will also become more competitive, but he will not be back soon.

Looking from their 2 previous games, I can say that GSW improves a lot,
not just outside but also inside looney and Bjelica is really helping they are adding threats when they have the ball inside.

If you noticed, the same design of offense is their defense still working for the Warriors,
I expect more good adjustment when Klay starts to play.

They are not the favorite for now, but when the season start and if they continue playing
like this and start a good winning streak, for sure odd will change for them.


Maybe there are some odds changes but it's just a minor change, bettors would always look at how effective Klay is when he comes back, and the regular season is not always a measure of how the team will perform in the playoffs. So, even if the Warriors are playing good basketball in the regular season, but they don't have the same Klay Thompson in the playoffs, I don't think they will be the favorites to win.

. So now we can move on and see Matchroom taking over in promotion. For sure Eddie Hearn will not disappoint us boxing fans.
I hope so, this fight has been long overdue, it was supposed to happen this year and now it's postponed again. Under the new promoter, they will start from the beginning but you are right, the new promotion company is better than the previous one and Eddie Hearn is a good promoter.

As a fan, our main concern should only be on the boxer's side, but now we are going deeper because of the postponements of the fights.
2609  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Nonito Donaire vs Reymart Gaballo (WBC bantamweight) on: October 06, 2021, 09:43:09 PM

So this is an interesting match but does anyone knows that this is a go? I mean, do they already have the schedule for this fight?
There's no schedule of the fight yet, but most likely it will be next year as the announcement was made last month and they have to prepare for this fight first. Maybe the fight will be in US as well, and both fighters will have to show their best to impress the fans especially for Donaire if he wants to have a shot at fighting Inoue for a rematch.
2610  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you want to see Bitcoin legal in your country? on: October 06, 2021, 12:50:48 PM
As a crypto enthusiast and as an investor, we would be happy if bitcoin is not prohibited or illegal in our country. I am maybe one of the lucky people that live in a country where bitcoin is illegal, though I must say that bitcoin is not yet fully legal in our country, the way I see it, I believe that the government is very positive about crypto due to the revenue coming in their pocket through taxes.

My greatest happiness would be if they will declare bitcoin as a legal currency.
2611  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Canelo Alvarez vs Caleb Plant on: October 06, 2021, 12:04:49 PM
That's why Caleb needs to be have a good plan and work with his coach on how they are going to upset Canelo because it seems that he doesn't have a weakness. So the best way is to test him out early in the first 2 rounds and see how Canelo will react. Not sure if Caleb will show as the heavier during that fight, or the lighter one so that he can move and be the fastest one on his feet so avoid Canelo's power punches. But it will be boring though if he keeps on running and playing defense.

Team Caleb already knew that Canelo doesn't have a weakness so that might be the reason why Caleb Plant resorted to trash-talking so he could provoke Canelo and make him out of focus on fight night but i think that's not gonna work as Canelo has been through this kind of a situation a lot and he already knew what to do.

I think it would be good if Caleb won't go light on this fight and try his luck brawling with Canelo, who knows if he can land few solid blows that could turn the fight in his favor.

It could work though, same strategy of GGG in the first fight, he really took off early and try to stay in the pocket and hit Canelo with good shots and then move out of arm's way. That's why the fight is very close as GGG was controlling early and Canelo chooses to play defense plus he is a slow starter.

So Caleb needs to play the same, score points early, avoid those bombs and then wait for Canelo to do the catch up, then try to use his boxing skills like in the Canelo vs Lara fight. Go light and use a lot of movement to frustrate Alvarez.

I guess Caleb is not that good to beat Canelo in the early rounds, that strategy could be useful for some elite fighters but for Caleb, I doubt that. He won't be able to do that against the almost unbeatable boxer now which is currently the number 1 in the pound for pound raking per the ring maganize. https://www.ringtv.com/ratings/

SMB -1.5 @1.95 boosted, double my game 1 bet so if ever SMB win, it's already a profit for me this series  Grin.
Nice plan bro, but are you gonna stop betting if SMB wins game 2?
If you'll ask me, I would not stop because there's always an opportunity using the martingale strategy, and I believe that the SMB will win the series.
Even if TNT will take game 2, SMB could still bounce back in game 3 and 4 to even the series.

I guess it will be a long series, so if they win game 2, you are in profit, and if they lose in game 3, you can double your bet again, who knows they'll win in game 4 again. Very clever, and you should be as PBA is not hard to predict, you know, the "Fixed thing".
Fixed game does not always mean they will make it a close game or a long series, it depends on the game plan they are doing as at the end of the day, they will always make money. No income from fans now since this is in a bubble set up, but if indeed fixed games do exist, they can make a lot of money in gamblng.
2613  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: October 03, 2021, 09:02:39 PM
Halftime score.

LA Lakers (49) vs Brooklyn Nets (57)

Top scorers.
Nets : Thomas 12 points, Brown 10 points, Millsap 8 points, and Carter 8 points.

LA Lakers : Horton-Tucker 10 points, Monk 10 points, Nunn 9 points

I'm not familiar with some of the names, probably they are rookies who is showing their skills in the preseason.
Will the Lakers be able to come back in the 2nd half and win the game?
2614  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: October 03, 2021, 08:19:00 PM
Another casual 20:3 run in the last quarter, PBA rig fest at its best.

So what do you think will happen next game?

Do you have fixed game information on this game between SMB vs TNT?

Share it, please.  Grin

Oh well SMB have a controversy in terms of rigging right?, the issue didn't manage to fire up and again PBA is not interested to go deeper,

This series matches up between two heavy weights and rival companies seems far from dealing with it but we really don't know as this issue was never been proved.

allegations and all those smokes about game rigged have died, eventually. Better to forget about it and move on if you suffer from losses.


SMB was short in this game, overall it's a fun game because it's close and I expect it to be a close series as well. I lose my bet last night but I'm still here in game 2 as I like them to even the series, I'm okay if they will rig it as long as they will make SMB a winner in game 2. More games give more opportunity for us to bet and of course to make money, so I like to see this to be a long series as well.
2615  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will Dogecoin survive without Elon Musk? on: October 03, 2021, 11:24:09 AM
The Doge hype has already over, but I don't think it will vanish like other meme coins. it has no proper use case but It is being used for trading, gifting, and buying gifts cards and It is also the most popular meme coin, so It cant be vanished.
If Dogecoin must disappear in cryptocurrency, then the time is not now, but since in the past it should have disappeared when the price was 10 satoshi, now the question is why did Dogecoin not disappear at that time and still survives until now? and I'm sure you know the answer.
Lol there is no way that coins like this will disappear , yeah Meme coins is not that well to trust coin but never that it will be dead at any chances.
also Dogecoin is what i am using in my gambling activities in the past though recently the site that i usually played with dogecoin has already closed so i need to find one again.

Doge will not disappear, exchanges will continue to list DOGE because they are benefiting from it, the probable scenario would only be Doge going down its value because there's no hype anymore, and even if Elon will not leave and continue to shill, people would not bite it anymore as the hype is over, whales already made a profit on this coin.

Another casual 20:3 run in the last quarter, PBA rig fest at its best.
Lol, you cannot take that as a basis mate, it's normal in a game, even in NBA it happens, so you are saying that NBA is also rigged?

Come on, no one has proved that PBA is rigged, all are just speculation from the bettors who lose their bet.
Just be smart, do believe in the rigged game, it's okay but always tries to be on the right side.

Yup, hard to prove that games were rigged especially in a series between two rival teams/companies, how could you get them to be involved in a drama so that run was just part of the ballgame.

Won my first ticket and will watch closely the second game on how it goes. Mikey Williams will be a big factor for the TNT Katropa if he will show his brilliance, let us see if Chris Ross could give him a hard time orchestrating the play for the Katropa.

Though late but still i would put my picks here:

Magnolia ML @1.90 - won
SMB -1.5 @2.02 boosted


Good luck, SMB is not gonna lose in this game, they might be down now but they will come back and win the game. Game 1 is very important, so they will try to win this so they'll be more comfortable as the series is going forward. I also think that it's a touch series, might end in game 6 or 7 so it's good if TNT will stay head.

If they will bounce back in the 2nd half, I would win my bet and I also like that to happen. So far the game is close, no team has ever led by double-digit yet and it's also a defensive game so it will hit the under, I just don't remember what whats the under/over bet on this game.

Fajardo seems to be struggling still, but it's okay, SMB has a lot of back up to provide if Fajardo can't provide his usual numbers.
2617  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Advice on trends on: October 03, 2021, 08:37:49 AM
My advice on trends is to control emotions, I see so many panic buyer when the market starts to rise, sometimes the people that is so excited can make a bad decisions that will lead to losing so think twice, bull trap is sometimes happen so we also need to be more careful when the crypto market begin or starts a new trend.
Trading is not easy to analyze so it's good to learn the skill of trading very well before attempting to trade. Emotion can be deceptive even when analysis is correct, so emotion needs to be work on well to avoid quickly leaving a trend at the early stage cause the market can decide to do a fake out that will make traders to be afraid and leaving a trend that can give a good profit.
There's a simple solution to that, don't trade if you can't control your emotion, the most important thing is the implementation of your plan because that would determine the outcome of your trading activity, even how good your plan is, it will only stay in the paper if you can't implement it well.

Embiid already talked about it.
Quote
"The situation is disappointing, borderline kind of disrespectful to all the guys that are out here fighting for their lives," Embiid told reporters at training camp in Camden, New Jersey.
https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/32314598/philadelphia-76ers-star-joel-embiid-calls-ben-simmons-situation-borderline-disrespectful-team
About the shooting problem. He's still young, it can be improved. I won't worry about that so much because he has a lot of skills to contribute.

Embiid should be vocal about it because he is the main man of the team, anything he said might affect the team and Simmons, so hopefully, there will be an agreement and both parties have to stay professional. Simmons has to be respectful and the 76ers management has to respect what Simmons wants.

One of the keys to successful investing in crypto is having extensive knowledge in the crypto world. With extensive knowledge we can find out
what strategies are best used in order to generate profits. Having knowledge can also make us always aware of what trends are currently running,
so at least we can have an idea where the crypto market will move. Therefore people who fail when investing in crypto, they do not have
knowledge about the crypto world, so they don't understand how the crypto world works.
I agree that knowledge is important, but not everyone knows how to capture that knowledge, and sometimes many people get lost in the vast knowledge of the market.
Clearly defining what you intend to research is really necessary, the trends in the market are not too difficult, through practical experience, identifying trends in the market.
More experience will lead to a better understanding of the market, as you go further, you will continue to improve your strategy until you will be able to familiarize the market movement, sometimes we are too attached to our emotions that even a simple trend will become complicated.

It's very simple, when it's bullish you can ride but always be cautious to drop or sell it at the right timing, if you are buying to hold longer, then it should not be in the bull run, wait for the market correction first to get the best value, and always be patient in order to do it successfully.
