Was it already official? I would like to know what bookies do support this kind of even it looks like an easy win for Mike from the exhibition match with Jones Jr. we can see how still powerful the punch of Mike Tyson and his agility and footwork, he can easily bring a destructive punch. Was Logan Paul can take punches like that? It would be really risk for him.

I'm not sure if this is official, but I have been following his twitter account here: https://twitter.com/MikeTyson. Maybe you can follow his as well so that we will know when this fight is going to happen.

So there's no sport bookies that will cover this fight yet. But for sure a lot of crypto bookies will list this fight just like in the Tyson vs Roy Jones fight.

Yep, such recovery in just two days, from $58k and now we are trading again above $60k.

Just 24 hours before the closing of this month's candle, I think we could still go as high $62k and be positive and continue this bull run till November-December. Although I see weekends not as not as it used to be, I mean there are a lot of activities still. Unlike the previous years wherein weekend is slow trading days as obviously, speculators are taking a break from their trading activity.

Perhaps the Knicks anticipated that it will be DeRozan who are going to pull the last shot that's why they keep him with a bigger guy close to him. You can see that they didn't put a good defender on Lavine. Although is this kind of play I will still go with Lavine taking the last shot of the game.

Yes, tough lost, but we never expect them to close the lead of the Knicks to one and then Randle missing two FT, that was critical that could allow the Bulls to win. Just bad play in the last 4 seconds of the game.
They thought on it so well on that regards if that's the case, great coaching I say. LaVine was more agile and clutch I guess and I'd agree on that. I'd say the Bulls are still at its best even in this loss with the Knicks, I mean it's tough and close game, if they have take that as an opportunity miss they should have won it but yeah ball is round and there's too many possibilities and unexpected things that may happen. Now they're tied with Knicks and 2 other teams and only Jazz on the West remains undefeated.

Yes, at least they have been tested by a good team and knows how to react as they could have won this game if DeRozan made that shot. Nevertheless, the Bulls are really on the dark horse team in the league with their roster upgrade and everyone knows how to fit in the system. I'm also expressed with Caruso, if only Lakers could have made him a good offer, I think he still stay with them. But he already found a home and performing the Caruso that we have known him in LA.

Clippers vs Blazers tomorrow, what do you think about this game.

Game history. Oct 25, 2021, Clippers won W 116 - 86.

They dominated the Blazers and now the Blazers will play at home and will try to avenge their loss against the Clippers.
So what's going to be the bet here, will the Blazers win here and cover the spread of -2.5?

Yes, Clippers did dominated the Blazers that game, however, after that the Clippers lost to the Cavs 92-79, while the Blazers after that lost bounce back and beat Memphis, 116-96.

And since they are now going to play at Blazers home, I think they can cover this spread for a revenge. I'm seeing Dame and CJ again leading the team, could be easy 40-50 points between the two guards.

Indeed, it was a blow out win by the Blazers in their homecourt:



Lillard and CJ McCollum combine for 39 points. But it was Norman Powell who provided the spark in the second quarter when they are about to make a break away in this game hitting two 3 points shots in succession and that was enough to built a 12 point lead.
2665  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin metrics “INSANELY BULLISH”! Can the King go to 200K or more this cycle? on: October 29, 2021, 07:34:07 AM
I still stand behind my initial speculation of $400k+ based on previous cycles considering that the cycles are 4 years long an the first 3 years of this cycle was the exact copy of the previous one with the 4th year being pretty similar but with a longer correction phase after each ATH was reached.

Right now with the Taproot upgrade coming and the price already on the rise with the new ATH set a couple of days ago, everything is looking good for surpassing $100k. Although I still think that the new bubble at $400k+ is going to take place next year most probably in first quarter.

I think the Taproot will be the catalyst next month for that $100k that everyone is expecting to see. So if everything repeats itself like 2017, then maybe around March-May we might see the bubble being burst for this cycle and it's going to be hard for those who haven't seen the bubble in 2017 and they might be in another rude awaking just like the majority of us here we are a total noob (including me), in 2018 and thinking that the price could still go on parabolic to $50k that time.
2666  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Nonito Donaire vs Reymart Gaballo (WBC bantamweight) on: October 29, 2021, 05:31:44 AM
Holiday is a good season and most of the people have money at that time so maybe many speculate that on this month the fight should happen since they have money to spend betting on their favorite fighters.
I think so, next December 11 is a holiday and followed by the new year, it makes sense that many people have more money, if they want to bet on Donaire vs Reymart.

In the interview yesterday, October 15, Donaire had considered that their fists had both been negotiated, in the interview Donaire said he would respect and do his best to Gaballo in the boxing ring this time, although Gaballo kept mentioning idols.

I'm sure the boxing between Donaire vs Reymart will take place well and professionally, I thumbs up to Donaire responding to Gaballo professionally.

Yes, the timing of the fight is really good for Filipinos as they have the longest Christmas holiday in history, which starts in September. And maybe this is the first time that Gaballo as well will travel to the US to fight right? So that experience is there.

And hopefully they will give us a good show, respect for Donaire for being in the game for so long now. But maybe it's time that a new name in the sports will take over like Reymart. It will be a beautiful Christmas for him if he upsets Nonito.
2667  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Terence Crawford vs Shawn Porter - Nov. 20 on: October 29, 2021, 04:49:52 AM
I'm still 50/50 on this one, yes Crawford has all the attributes of a highly skilled boxer, no doubt about that. But he hasn't seen a fighter like Porter who is true offense and his best defense is his offense. So we don't know how he will react? how will his boxing IQ digest the fight itself and what will be his reaction. I can't decide for now and maybe pass on this fight and just watch and see if Crawford is really that good and why people regard him as the best welterweight.
2668  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: October 29, 2021, 04:02:25 AM
Unexpected loss from the Hawks against the Wizards. This start of the season is not looking good for them even though they are in a healthy roster.
It's not even close when compared to their last year performance. I doubt, its chemistry they are looking because they have the same roster. It must be the plays or Trae is having trouble adjusting with the new rule.

No, it was the Wizards team really play solid offense in this game and has executed good plays as well. Specially when Hawks are trying to get close, and after a time out they will score 4 or 6 consecutive points.

And the ex-Lakers are now finding a home, Kuz, KCP and Trez + Beal contributing to their win today.


I took an L yesterday with my parlays as some of the favorite teams lost. So I just bet on a single today, and it again give me a heart attack as the total score is 212. I thought it won't even go to total 200 between the 76ers and the Pistons. But Detroit made a 13-0 run to make the game very close in the dying minutes.


2669  Economy / Speculation / Re: How do you explain the October pump? on: October 28, 2021, 03:45:01 AM
October being the best month in 2021, maybe this is the start of the bitcoin pump to reach $100k in December, and I'm optimistic that new ATH will continue to happen and in November I believe the bitcoin price can reach at least $80k.

Well we can call October the best month if we are going to close at the green candle. But so far after hitting all time high last week, the price goes down on a spiral mode and almost $10k has been sliced already, -8.x%.

Although there is a significant improvement from this month, as the price is still above $50k. Nevertheless, we should all look next month November as another bearish month and hopefully we can gain and have another all time high @$70k.
2670  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: October 28, 2021, 02:44:17 AM
^^ The Lakers did score a huge 1st quarter 41 points against 19 by the Thunder.

But it seems that the Thunder has chip down the lead as they already scored 30 points against the Lakers 20. So it might be close though, if Lakers are not careful about protecting the lead as OKC is also a good shooting team. Plenty of time, 21 point lead is not safe as we still have 2 full quarters left.

It's normal that the leading will slow down when they have a huge lead so that they can conserve energy on the last crucial quarter. They are now still leads 10 points in the 3rd quarter while OKC seems exhausted. Lakers performing well without LeBron, I'm they can win since Davis is in-charge on there points.

Too bad, it messed with my parlay as the Lakers lost against the OKC in a very close game again.

I thought that they have this in the bag as they've built a good and comfortable lead. And they try to make a comeback in the last minutes of the game. But it wasn't enough, so no, they can't win without Lebron James. He is still the main pieces of this franchise. Try to make new multi bet and see if I can recover some.
2671  Economy / Economics / Re: Facebook Diem on the run for launch on: October 28, 2021, 02:06:51 AM
If Facebook should launch this cryptocurrency successfully, I think it’s going to be a really big challenge for the banks. Why I think this Facebook currency is going to be a serious challenge for the banks is because they have a really huge platforms with billions of users, and that means that most of the people are going to start making use of this Facebook digital currency to start sending money to their friends and family around the world.

So, it’s going to be a bit of a problem for banks because of those people who are going to abandon making use of banks to send money to their loved ones and start making use of Facebook digital currency. Till then let’s wait and see how it is going to turn out. But, I fully believe that as long as they’re able to maintain it , itis going to be a really huge success.

And they are not going to allow it as Facebook is facing another potential heavy regulations again.

https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2021/oct/25/facebook-whistleblower-frances-haugen-calls-for-urgent-external-regulation

Quote
Mark Zuckerberg “has unilateral control over 3 billion people” due to his unassailable position at the top of Facebook, the whistleblower Frances Haugen told MPs as she called for urgent external regulation to rein in the tech company’s management and reduce the harm being done to society.

So I doubt that they can launch whatever plans they have as far as crypto goes.

For sure many in the EU countries are going to make it hard again for Facebook and they won't allow Mark and his company to have control in the next decade.
2672  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Gervonta Davis vs. Rolando Romero - December 5 on: October 28, 2021, 01:30:15 AM
^ And that's where the money will come in, fans that hate him and wanted to see him lose specially against Tank Davis who he so much disrespected coming into this fight.

There could have been real beef between the two, but Davis insisted that there is none and he really don't know why Romero is really mad or hostile towards him. Maybe he just wanted to have that belt so much and become a champion and he thinks that he can knockout Tank. So we will see if he can bring that trash talk in the fight or just another hype boxer.
2673  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: October 28, 2021, 12:56:35 AM
It's Lakers vs Thunder indeed and with the Lakers' star players doubtful in this game I would be backing the Thunder for today's game plus they are playing in their homecourt. James and Davis are prone to injury lately if this will continue this will hurt them in the post-season just like last year so I think it would be best for the Lakers coaches to start thinking of load management.
Look at the Thunder's results in previous games. Their performances are unconvincing, considering that they haven't won any regular season games yet. So I doubt that the Thunder will be able to win the Lakers even if Lebron James and Anthony Davis don't play in the upcoming match.

Lakers having a huge lead against OKC now, so I would say chances are they are going to win their 3rd straight games. I have them parlay again, but it seems the Hawks are having a hard time against the Wizards, hopefully they can pull it off and so is the Clippers and the Suns. I think my bet is going to be close just like yesterday and it will be down to the wire again.
2674  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is the bitcoin going to burst anytime soon on: October 27, 2021, 11:42:11 PM
As per the ongoing market situation the price could retest reaching close around $55000. The medium test zone looks to be around $57000 and the long term trend line support will be around $53000. Upon this market burst won't happen. More and more cryptocurrency adoption by leading companies makes positive move in the market. Maybe the downturn support testing could cause a FOMO.

We are now in the $58k zone, and so we might test another lows before the end of this month. Nevertheless, the market looks still bullish long term or at least the remaining 2 months. It is because of the anticipated run to $100k. So in the next 2 months we have x2 growth then we might be as well into that 6 digits and maybe we can see another FOMO run starting next month as we are also waiting for Taproot, which is the propose "upgrade".
2675  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: October 27, 2021, 03:22:50 AM
I threw a few bits at a Warriors/Lakers/Mavs parlay and some on the individual games. My thinking is that the Warriors are on a tear and the Rockets (playing the Mavs) are terrible. I’m also hoping the Lakers will build on the 4th quarter we saw the other night. Tensions are high and the old guys are pissed off. I’m just mad I won’t be able to watch the game.

Halfway and all my bets are losing.  Cry

Whew, what a game we had here. I have the same parlay with you mate, and it's really nerve wracking to watch the game. OKC leads Warriors 3/4 of the game and so is  the Mavs vs Rockets. Then Lakers vs Spurs when into OT.



I also threw some with Lakers -1.5 in game betting. So congrats to you as well.
2676  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Now the price is bullish on: October 27, 2021, 02:21:36 AM
Imo, it is the starting of the bullish era. because many altcoins are still struggling to reach at least their own ATH. But most of them are not. Hopefully, Bitcoin will not crash again so that altcoin season will really happen this year, at least next month or at the end of this year.
Well, this may be a difficult prediction, moreover, we can find so many predictions about the pros and cons of the bullish trend this year or next year.
However at least, now we can breath fresh air with the price of Bitcoin is still more than $60k
It went from $38k to $60k USD really quick. So probably we will be seeing another correction. Maybe this time it will be around $50k. Though I have been reading everywhere that the price will reach a  new all time high within the end of the year. We never know what's going to happen. And if bitcoin goes bullish, most of the altcoin suffers. We have seen that a lot. But things have been a little different this year. Surprised to see altcoins performing well even when bitcoin was both bullish and bearish.

I'm not sure if he can go to $40k-$50k. The dip that we have seen in a natural occurrence in the market. After new all time high, the speculators sold out and make profits. And if the pattern will continue, to achieved $100,000+ in December it will take like 2.5 months again. So the lowest that we can get is around $60k to be able to hit what everyone is expecting in December and what others have been banking on, the S2F model pushing at least $130,000 or more.

^ Yep, it will be totally on Joshua's shoulder to tweak his training and of course his mind that he can win and beat Usyk at his best performance.

So it might be a good risk on his side to switch to state side trainer, maybe they can show him drills and lessons and of course new fighting techniques that can harness his strengths so that he can beat Usyk in the rematch. Those trainers mentioned are world class, so he can't go wrong with anyone in the list.

Anyone watching the OKC vs GSW match?

It's seems that OKC is playing very good up to this point (2nd quarter). Curry started very slow missing a lot of shots but he hits 2 consecutive 3 before the end of the first quarter.

But the lead is 10++ for OKC, I have GSW -7.5 in this game in a parlay. Hopefully they can still pull through in the second half and cover that spread.

Was able to catch up the Bulls vs Toronto in the 4th quarter before a comeback by the Raptors:



It's was really very close game, DeRozan came in clutch against his former team. But Bulls needs to learn how to inbound properly, Lol. Vucevic has the advantage alright but it seems the Bulls passer has either miscalculate or doesn't want to give the ball to him. Anyhow, Bulls really looks solid this year with DeRozan and Caruso, who made 2 very important steal as well.
2680  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING] Logan Paul vs Mike Tyson on: October 24, 2021, 04:04:12 AM
So it would be a professional bout based on his own words

Quote
Paul, 26, said in August that he knew who his next opponent was but couldn't reveal the name, although he suggested it would be a professional bout.

if the fight push through and it's not an exhibition match, Paul is in big trouble Tyson base don what we've seen in his last bout still packs a lot of power and he is still accurate in his punches, Tyson may be old but this is a short distance fight and Tyson can knock him out in the early rounds, let's see the development of this bout I'd like to see the formal and official announcement.

It's risky for Mike to really get into boxing unless it's just an exhibition. With the exhibition, Logan will not really throw big punches at him.
Why Mike is chosen is I guess is that Tyson's popularity will add more attraction to the event to make more money. Despite the crisis, today people will still be willing to pay for tickets to see Mike dance in the ring.

Mike can still throw that big bombs and it can really hurt Logan as well.

But I doubt that this will be professional sanction and I doubt that there will be sanctioning body that will approved this one because of the age of Mike Tyson.

So this is another exhibition fights that will be "stage" again for sure. If this is for charity events then good, but if this is fight is for the money, specially Logan who have been very successful and have earn millions from his fight, then I will not support this.
