2641  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING] Jonas Sultan vs Carlos Caraballo - October 30, 2021 on: September 25, 2021, 07:51:14 PM
The Puerto Rican might be a good prospect but he is facing somebody with much more experience and this will be a significant test for him. Sultan has not been consistent enough to become champion. He beat Casimero but then lost to Ancajas. Sultan has 5 losses but has never been knocked out. My prediction is that this will go the distance but the undefeated fighter will get the decision.
Surprisingly, he beat Casimero in 2017 and that was a good match because they both gave their best shot. With the record that Sultan have, its pretty bad for me and it will be hard to attract gamblers to place their bet on him since he is fighting a great boxer with a clean record so this will be an easy prediction for me, he might not get knock out but Caraballo will give him the taste of great boxing for sure.
That was a long time ago, imagine, it's more or less 4 years and during that time Casimero is still not under the MP promotion. Casimero really improved under MP promotion as he has great people that supports him and Manny is very supportive as well, if I'm not mistaken, Casimero has not loss a single fight yet under MP promotion.
Actually, both fighters had already improved and I hope they will not fight each other again and they just have to continue making their respective names popular in boxing sports. By the way, for those who do not know yet, Sultan is also now under MP promotion. (source : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonas_Sultan)... so there's no chance that we will see a Casimero vs Sultan fight.

With the same promoter, it is unlikely that they will be fighting.
Obviously, they will look for other boxers with different promoters.
But I am interested with this upcoming fight, if Sultan can upset Caraballo.
Will being under MP promotions help him to be an excellent boxer?

Being under MP wil help him a lot as far as his career. Even him and Pacquiao could have the same trainer, it is still different though. He really need to show the world if he is capable in the world stage since he has the experience already having fought two champions in Ancajas and Casimero.

If he will take advantage of MP Promotions and delivers the goods then hopefully he can break into the US audience as well like other Filipinos under Pacquiao's banner.

He is already at the right promoter, all he needs to do is to continue to trained to be ready every time he has a fight, and he also has to ensure that he wins the fight, and if not, go back to training and win next time. The recipe for success is not easy, but they could also see Manny Pacquiao as their inspiration to work hard as boxing changes his life from nothing to be one of the richest and infleuncial person in the Phillipines now.

Caleb says it was just a scratch but the pictures don't really look like a scratch. It's the cause of the sunglass he wore that time seems to have crammed down that resulted in that mark, you can't stage that kind of bruise.

They don't even have to insult each other its bound to happen. Every time two dominant males in one stage will cause a commotion, that is why there has to be someone in between when there is faceoff, it happens all the time in MMA. During that time, they were just them, who organized that faceoff?
The organizers are Showtime and Dana White had his comments regarding the face off and the scuffle. During face-off the fighters will exchange words and when Caleb Plant talks about the mother of Canelo Alvarez, he should expect a punch is coming and he was dumb enough to stay there even after hurling words and that is the reason he was having a bruise to remember so that the next time he is opening is mouth to talk about family he will be having bruises Cheesy.
Maybe he wants to feel the power of Canelo so he can adjust in the training. Smiley

That was a good show, everyone is talking about it and their fight is even more hype now, I don't know if it's scripted but if it is, then I would say that they did a great job and they should be rated with 10/10 on their acting skills, especially for Canelo.

It could be an acting job but it doesn't look like an acting job so that 10/10 rating is correct. Canelo gets disrespected and just shows how he could be if he gets disrespected. In the actual fight, I think Caleb Plant will regret why he trash-talks Canelo, he will understand that he is a real monster and that could destroy him legally in the ring.
2643  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: TRX to $1? on: September 25, 2021, 05:12:33 PM
The ecosystem of DEFI, NFT, Game Play to ear on TRX is not really impressive and many people choose new platforms like BSC, Polygon, Solana, AVAX, FTM instead of TRX.
TRX is hard to compete with new projects, so if Bitcoin goes up to $100k or $200k, then TRX can go up to $1. All altcoins move with Bitcoin. Expecting a breakthrough with an old project is difficult.
That's not fair for TRX, you are saying that TRX will only increase based on the success of bitcoin, well, I wouldn't say that because TRX has the market, they have a team that is continuously developing the team, so probably in the future, they could make a big update that could potentially attract investors and will result to a good pump.

End of the first half and the score is 49-38 in favor of Ginebra  Grin. Seems the never say die spirit is still there huh.

Matthew Wright was scoreless on a 0-7 field goal and as rumored, Vic Manuel didn't suit up for the game.

I Hope Phoenix would catch up in the next 24 minutes of play.

Ginebra won this game, Tim Cone made an experiment again and he can always rely on Caperal to contribute and not only he contribute, he has a big time contribution for the Gin Kings in the do or die game. He had 19 points in the game, and that made a difference compared to their previous games.

Going forward, I guess coach Tim will give him more minutes.

If they are not disciplined enough to limit the funds, then they probably end with huge losses.


This is the reality, some of us do not see the risk in gambling and that made up being irresponsible gambling which is willing to risk everything instead of gambling only what we can afford to lose. Yes, they lose a lot of money and most of them learn it a hard way, and for me, I think it's better than ending up in the street because we lose our job and home because of gambling.
2646  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: September 24, 2021, 09:07:23 PM
Somewhat of a slow day for NBA news. I guess teams are busy getting ready for preseason and are starting to feel secure in their units. Anyway, big news of the day is that Avery Bradley signed with the Warriors. I’m not sure he’ll see much playing time, but he’s a decent vet that would come in handy if the Warriors backcourt suffers more injuries.
They could use him as he still plays with high intensity, he would fit with the GSW's style. Based on his previous seasons with different teams, I think he can produce at least a double-digit PPG even playing with limited minutes. He also has the experience also, I'm sure he will be useful with the GSW who are good in grooming their players.

Great news for the GSW and for Avery Bradley as he found a new team.
2647  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Are the bulls back? on: September 24, 2021, 01:48:54 PM
According to chart history there have been bull odds going back in October and November to start with and peaking in December and early January for some other coins, if indeed the market repeats history.
otherwise the calculation will change.
That was one year ago, and for sure it will not happen this year as we have enough bullish movement this year. Prior to the last year's bull run, the market has been struggling in 2018 to 2020, so it needs a long correction or bearish movement before we will see another bull run and see it break the current ATH of bitcoin.
And looks like we are heading to a new correction now as the market is very unpredictable, and most of its movements are bearish already. It has struggled to break the $50k price again, and today, the market dump with the China news, probably, so I guess we should prepare ourselves as we might be going down to $30k.
2648  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: September 24, 2021, 01:32:41 PM
I have a feeling that they will be abused by Manuel and Perkins down low, and not only him, there's also Chua.

I feel the same, so I would bet on the Phoenix fuel masters to win no matter what the odds are. And since Ginebra is a hype team, maybe we will see very good odds for the Fuel Masters in this game, I even like them to be an underdog and I'll consider it as a good opportunity to make easy money. (hopefully)

Same here, with Japeth Aguilar and Scotie Thompson out, the Gin Kings will be having a hard time controlling the rebound and in this kind of situation, the team who controls the board usually wins.

Still, bookies have put the Kings as favorite huh, time to exploit these odds guys haha.

My bet for tomorrow Phoenix ML @2.36 boosted.

Good luck.

The line is already out, I can't believe that Ginebra is still the underdog.

I tried the "price boost" feature but I'm only getting 2.19, I think bettors are already putting their money on the Phoenix to win as they see the struggle of Ginebra in the past few games.

Don't need to be surprised mate, Ginebra is always a crowd favorite or the bettors favorite, lots of money will still flow for Ginebra especially from bettors who do not follow the update about the injury of Aguilar and Thompson. The defending champion will be eliminated soon and the TNT, Magnolia, and SMB will have bigger chance of winning the championship.
2649  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Canelo Alvarez vs Caleb Plant on: September 23, 2021, 09:22:52 PM
Oh the drama, the heat from the press conference is still here. It's going to be a nasty fight since Caleb trash talking Canelo's mother. I like how Canelo dodged and slapped Caleb after he pushed Caleb so hard. 2-0 for Canelo. Anyway, 1.09x (Stake's odds) seems like a sure win guys? But the odd isn't tempting tho.
Would not take that, I'd rather look for the handicap and that means I have to wait until the full market if this fight will be available. With the fire between the two, we will likely see a KO, we just have to predict what round a KO will happen or a range of rounds.
2650  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: September 23, 2021, 08:56:07 PM
Those who continue to believe that Ginebra is still a good team, certainly lose a lot of money already as Ginebra keeps losing. Meralco is not really a bad team though, so they can give Ginebra a big problem and we saw it because when the Ginebra rally, they still gas out in the 4th quarter and loss.

Look at the minutes played by 3 of the starters, this is not reasonable anymore, they are too desperate.

https://pba.ph/recap?match=1902622

Tenorio - 44:27
Pringle - 42:07
C. Stand - 40:45   

They are trying to win, but even starters have that number of mins without the chemistry they still unable to complete the chase.

The last chance against Phoenix will let them to try to make the final blow. If they will play the same way, then it's done with them. Remember that
last time they've met it was the last quarter snatch and Phoenix almost have it.

I'll be siding with them and bet, will try some luck.

It's not worth it to bet on Ginebra if they are playing with Japeth Aguilar and Scottie Thompson, that's 2 of the starters are missing, so they are not complete and they can't win against a healthy team.

Quote
Who knows, there's some pride that remains being the defending champ.
They still have that but it's not enough for them to win now.

By the way, we have a break today and the game will be in Saturday.
2651  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: September 23, 2021, 07:45:14 AM
Edit - looks like I'm wrong, only 4 points lead by Meralco now and we are in the 4th quarter already.

And back again, they now lead by double digits. lol

The PBD is and will always be the biggest scam league world wide. Its amazing what happens here week after week and season after season.

Teams dominating games and then for no reason dont score for 8 minutes and get a 0:15 run, or even more.

Just now again. Bolts score 8 points in the 3rd quarter after scoring 23 and 24 before and suddenly now they score 8 points in the first 3min of the 4th.

Rigged as fuck and an insult to the game of basketball.

I always believe that this is rig but it never loses my love on the league. I'm a bettor as well so it's really important for me to see them playing so I could bet. It's an advantage on your part if you believe which side would win because of the rig, so it's okay if it's a corrupt league, besides they are here for many years already.
2652  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Inoue vs Casimero Bantamweight Unification Fight on: September 22, 2021, 01:42:50 PM
I've watched a live stream interview between Casimero and Donaire and it seems the two fighters are still entertaining to have a match on the interview Casimero wants Donaire to send the contract to him and he will read and if he will sign it if he approves of the contract, there's uncertainty on the Inoue Casimero match there are negotiations but nothing concrete has come out yet because Casimero still entertain and is very open to fight Donaire, unfortunately just this day WBC ordered Donaire to take on Graballo as his mandatory challenger.
Donaire have to follow that order from WBC or else, he'll lose his belt so technically no more Casimero and Donaire this year hopefully it'll come next after the fight between Inoue and Casimero, this fight are more possible to happen. Trash talking is very effective with Casimero, I just hope that he is being managed very well so he can still have his reputation and I know, this is all part of the game to market the boxer.
That's right, he has to follow the orders and I think Donaire could beat Gaballo since he has the experience and Gaballo had a controversial win in his last fight. Skills-wise, Donaire has the advantage but Gaballo is also strong, he loves to fight toe to toe which what Donaire is looking so he can throw his best counter punches.

I thought SMB would lose the game.

Nice last play design by the SMB, just in time and Marcio did not fail us with this game-winning shot.
SMB just won by 1 point and they did not cover the spread.  Sad
2654  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Inoue vs Casimero Bantamweight Unification Fight on: September 19, 2021, 09:56:09 PM
That cancellation of the fight between Pacquiao and Spence is acceptable because it's backed by real evidence and it's not good for a boxer to take the risk of losing his sight just by making the fight happen to please the fans. Other fighters' excuses are different, it's careless because they got infected with covid-19 and the fight is cancelled.
Cancellation of the fight sometimes I may think it is a cowardness of the fighter or a boxer.
Why they do cancel if the fight can be extendable even months or a year. Just like Manny Pacquiao and Spence fight, I did not expect other matches aside from them but was a little disappointed when the opponent of Manny Pacquiao is quite has a lot of advantage over him, sounds like it is a mismatch. Now cancelation of the fight will I guess always happen.
Spence has to undergo an operation and he needs to cancel the fight as he doesn't know when exactly his operation will heal or will the doctor give him a clearance that he can fight again. I'm sure it will take a year or more for Spence to recover, so I don't expect to see him fight soon.

The cancellation of the fight was a disadvantage for Manny as he wasn't prepared for the style of Ugas, so doesn't know what is the right game plan during the fight, anyway, according to Manny they will have a rematch, revenge will come in time.

For this particular fight, let's hope no hindrance so it will happen as per schedule.

I don't know if this is the right place to post this but I want to know if there is some way to send erc20 tokens with low fee.
Current gas fee is very high particularly if one has to send too many transactions. Please if someone know any other way to send erc20 tokens with less fee, share with me and I will appreciate it.
the only way is to have to wait until the price really drops.  because right now the cost of ERC20 is huge and unreasonable.  I'm thinking can ERC20 like other platforms like BSC, TRON or SOL can have a low cost?  whatever it is but ERC20 is still one of the best networks currently in cryptocurrencies
People complain and yet they are still using it, that's the reason why ETH is still the leading altcoins in the market, but I hope with the new solution they are going to launch, will result in a significant drop in transaction fees or blockchain fees to be specific. We have another alternative, probably way lower than ETH transaction fees but they are not big enough, so eventually, its fees will also increase as their network is getting congested.
2656  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Inoue vs Casimero Bantamweight Unification Fight on: September 19, 2021, 08:42:54 PM
I've heard that Casimero is looking for some additional trainers on his team. But he wants a younger one.

Well in fact that the old timers are better trainers because they have a lot to share because of their experiences.
Maybe because of Him being aggressive that's why he wanted to look for Younger one that will relate on his kind of training wanted. since He needs to be more ready now because we knew how good Inoue as opponent , so casimero team is really facing one of the toughest fight of His career now facing this Japanese boxer.


They don't need a new trainer seriously, all he needs to do is to follow the instruction of his current trainer where he will follow it no matter how the turn of the fight will be. in that way, they won't be any miscalculations or regret to the result of the fight. Their strategy should work because they have already seen some of the fights of Inoue where he barely survives the fight. however if Inoue will execute some unthinkable strategy in this fight, then it's all over. but there is only one thing to be sure of, the fight will not end by the bell.

That's only a rumor, I like to know if Casimero confirms it soon. If they'll hire a young trainer, maybe because they see that there's more they can improve on Casimero as his opponent is no longer a joke, Inoue is a tough fighter and Casimero has to be smart enough in the ring to beat the monster, so let's see.

Not a big deal as long as the fight will be realized, they said they will fight this year and therefore we should wait for the final announcement especially on the side of the promoter. With what is happening in the past that some fights are cancelled or postponed, I cannot be too confident to just think that we will see this fight this December, so it's still 50-50 for me if we will really see this.
Even if its already been declared or realized but still chances of postponement would really be there specially if there are some sort of injuries or something like that which is on  the same on what happened with

Pacquiao and Spence which the fight is almost there but those sudden changes did happen which makes the fans do expect into things which arent going to happen.Just like you then i do have this kind of perception

or thing in mind that lets just wait until this fight comes because even its declared or been confirm but its not 100% for it to happen due to some factors.

That cancellation of the fight between Pacquiao and Spence is acceptable because it's backed by real evidence and it's not good for a boxer to take the risk of losing his sight just by making the fight happen to please the fans. Other fighters' excuses are different, it's careless because they got infected with covid-19 and the fight is cancelled.

Russell Westbrook looked miserable in the pictures from AD’s wedding. I hope the guy was just having an off day and this isn’t the first red flag for their chemistry together. I guess we’ll find out in another 2 weeks when the NBA’s preseason starts. Russ & LeBron are going to be fun to watch together. I don’t think LeBron has ever had a more talented teammate.
Not only a teammate, but teammates because he has AD and Westbrook, and compared to the time before where he won a championship in Heat and Cavaliers, I think AD and Westbrook are better compared to Wade-Bosh and Irving-Love, but chemistry is still very important.
2658  Economy / Gambling / Re: [Table] Withdrawal Fees and Withdrawal Amounts on Crypto Casinos on: September 19, 2021, 01:57:45 PM
Those sites that are still consistent in not charging a withdrawal fee once the minimum withdrawal limit is hit are very commendable. I've been using Sportsbet before and I really like how they process the withdrawal instantly. Other sites charge outrageous fees, IMO, it's not good for business as they are hurting the gamblers which majority of the gamblers are looking for a site where they can enjoy gambling and save from high withdrawal fees.

I guess, in the future, eventually more gambling sites will add altcoins as an alternative or part of the choices as it's more practical due to the unpredictable fee range of bitcoin especially when there's market congestion.

DYIP is looking good, they are not going anywhere, they are only down by 3 points after the first half.

Looking forward to how they'll play in the 2nd half as that's where mostly their game will collapse.
They are the underdog here, heavy underdog in fact, so let's see if they'll win or at least cover the handicap.

Terrafirma is competing very well in this game, they are maybe tired of losing and they will try to bounce back with a big win against the Alaska Aces. We are at the start of the 4th quarter now and TNT has a two-point lead, so this is good for them. I like the ball movement of the DYIP now as they are spreading the ball well, they are more unpredictable, so good luck to them.

I lose my parlay because I have ROS over NP. but it's okay because I won my single bets and I have like what DYIP did as they give me a profit. I am also a bit regretful as I did not check on the odds like DYIP winning by 11+ points because that one should give good odds. DYIP won by 14 points by the way.

Business is business, these people who are influencers are working to make money, they are paid by a gambling site or sites to promote them, so there's nothing wrong with that. If we talk about whether it's ethical or not, then a simple question would answer that, and that is, is gambling ethical?
