I will bookmark this link, I thought we will not be able to watch these games live on our PC or laptop, but @harizen, you are a hero, thank you for sharing, we don't have to watch TV just to watch the game, now we can still enjoy even in front of our PC.
The good thing with this coverage on Facebook is we still can watch the replay if we miss the live broadcast of those games. I'm not watching PBA games on TV5 anymore as it usually conflicts with my work schedule so I just go to Facebook and see those pages that broadcast them live. FB live has a lot of usage for us today especially those busy ones like me  . |

 ^^ Odds for tomorrow's game between Magnolia and NorthPorth. Just like to share because for me this is very attractive if you bet for the Hotshots. Batang Pier was totally dominated by the Bolts and they must be playing tired tomorrow because of this back-to-back game. Clearly, the Batang Pier missed the service of Greg Slaughter but I think he won't be playing for a while for them as he is currently in the US for his vaccination (what a lame excuse lol). Who's with me on betting for the Hotshots, -3.5 HC is not too high and if Magnolia wins they sure will cover this. |

It could be his downfall for being cocky because Rigo is no push-over. At least at his age, he can still fight against the much touted Casimero. But I think Casimero already knows what Rigo can bring, left hand and then being so defensive. So John Riel will be prepared to even go to distance if necessary or look for the early knock out.
So far, my favourite sport bookies hasn't covered this fight yet on their future, but Casimero will be the favourite or should be the favourite here once the betting is open.
Casimero and his camp are already working with all those possibilities that Rigo may bring to this fight, they are watching and carefully analysing those old fights by Rigo. Preparations is very important since Casimero is aiming for more decent title fights, he needs to bring the old champ down. I've seen a lot of videos of Casimero before he leaves for the USA and it seems that he is preparing for this time and does not take Rigo for granted. He might be cocky sometimes but I do think that it is his way of going into the opponent's mind and psyche them up and also to sell tickets lol, we all know that whenever a boxer boasted many fans will want to see him fail. I would be very upset if Casimero will fail on this one as this is his ticket to a more lucrative fight with Inoue as promised by MP Promotion and the fact that Rigo is old, he should take care of the latter convincingly. |

And for the record, last 2019, I able to watch 6 games live at the venue, even watching those farms teams, since like I mentioned, I was nearby Ynares and Smart-Araneta in Cubao. It's only on MOA Area that I'm not able to watch live because I don't want to travel there during rush hour. About 25-30 minutes travel time from our home on usual traffic. Yes, the crowd is sometimes few especially on 1st game even it's Ginebra. And sometimes free tickets are given to us (one of my friends is working in....) so take the opportunity, always at Upper B for free tickets but a good spot already for a good view. Wow, I envied you mate  . Whenever the PBA is playing out of town and they are in my place, I will never pass up the opportunity to watch them live especially if it's SMB that will be playing, it's always standing capacity in our local stadium. Wow, I miss those times but hoping that out of town games will be back soon and the new arena that will be built by SM (a little bit bigger than MOA as they said) will be finished by that time so we can see the home town boys (Fajardo and Slaughter) playing alongside each other not as an opponent as we usually see them when they are playing college ball. |

Game is in 3 days, where do go we go from here  The line is currently in favor of the Suns and it's -4.5 for them. If we follow the pattern, I think we should go for the Suns in game5 because whoever has the homecourt advantage won so far in this series and they always cover the spread so Suns -4.5@1.9 is the way to go but on the other hand the Bucks have already found the confidence they needed that might offset the homecourt advantage . |

Seeing an audience in the game is already a good start, which means the IATF is confident that everyone who are in the venue will be safe, and that is because they have vaccines already, so what I'm seeing in the future is that getting vaccinated will be the requirement before you can watch the PBA in the arena.
The article says "Maximum of 200 individuals" so I think it will include the players and staff of the PBA so I don't think fans are allowed at this point in time even if you are fully vaccinated. The PBA will try its best not to be the "super spreader" so I think they will be very strict for now and follow every protocol set by the IATF. Even if it's a fanless venue, still it is going to be exciting that even though their original plan of opening in April drew some setback but still they manage to get the nod of the IATF to finally open tomorrow. So guys ready your crypto . |

All books that I looked at had 10+x odds on Nigeria.
I'd actually expect the US to be quite underpriced as favourites going forward. It is clear that they're going to be a lot stronger going forward as they should have been woken up by these two losses. But people tend to have recency bias and think that they're weak.
They're still the best team by far - don't forget that. Anything over 1.1x on them are great odds in the Olympics.
Agree and even if they lose twice in a row, I'm hesitant to bet against them because I think that it's just a waste of money because they are a strong team. I grew up watching team USA blew their opponents by almost 40 points and betting against them is hard for me now lol. Maybe after the elimination games in the Tokyo Olympics, we can figure out who's the best team that had the chance of beating the US squad and just go for it with eyes closed. |

Per below quote, the PBA has not yet released the official schedule of games but we can expect that they will release that on Thursday I think. About JMF, he and TR7 were already seen joining scrimmages and per their team manager Gee Abanilla, they look good on practice even if they not yet 100 percent healthy. PBA awaits the official schedule of PBA opening day games.
The PBA currently taking a back seat to put to perspective the list of games that set to happen in the opening of the 46th PBA season this week,
PBA also awaits the result of COVID 19 tests of PBA players ahead of the opening.
I'm very excited to once again see my SMB team trying to capture that AFC title once again lol. Controversies around the PBA has been overshadowed by the news of its resumption, so let's just sit back and relax for a while. |

I can't remember if Charlo has a checkered left hook. However, I would agree that he will be the favourite to win the fight base on the odds. Just a matter on how he is going to win, but KO or by decision. And Charlo has a devastating punch, and Castano might not take it unless he has a solid chin to contend with. It's better for Castano to really fight toe to toe here and make Charlo play defensive. It will be a difficult task for him to beat Charlo but as the saying goes, he has a punchers chance.
Seeing the odds at the moment, Charlo @1.42, Castano @2.85, this only shows that sports bookies are giving Castano a high chance of winning but that still to be seen and if you are a Charlo fan, this odd is attractive enough for you to make a bet. I have not seen Castano fight yet so I think I will still bet for Charlo but I would be waiting for the odds on Charlo winning by Decision as this kind of market always gives me the win lol. |

Thank you @bisdak40 for sending me a message, this fight will push through so the thread is unlocked now. So what happens now? Is it a Casimero vs Donaire or a Casimero vs Rigondeaux? Kind of hoping it will be an all Filipino match up but I guess going to the original isn't going to be that bad at all. As per the news, Casimero vs Rigondeaux is now a go after Donaire canceled his fight with the former. The All-Filipino match-up will still be possible if both fighters will beat their respective opponents but I doubt Donaire can do it, it's one hell of a climb. This original match-up is both beneficial to Donaire and Casimero as this means more money for Donaire while buying some time for Casimero before his shot on the unified title. |

You have a good point though, Rigondeaux's performance is affected by his age, but he is still a dangerous fighter because his record looks impressive. He might not have an impressive win but a win is a win, you can't argue that. I believe we should look at the betting odds of Casimer vs Rigondeaux and see how the bookies see this fight.
Rigo is a defensive fighter and yup, he is still dangerous and can win matches if the opponent would underestimate him. Against Loma, Rigo doesn't have any luck as the former is too technical of a boxer and toyed him until he quits. If he will be fitted against Inoue, I think he will be in trouble because he is not too lateral as he used to be and he will be knocked out in the process as Inoue is too strong. Casimero vs Rigo is somewhat more of a fitting fight for Rigo because Casimero, though tested but there are tendencies that he could be careless sometimes and a little bit too cocky. If he takes for granted this fight with Rigo, this might derail his chance to fight for the unification title. |

And with this health protocols that PBA is trying to get over ever since this pandemic to get that license, breaching it out for satisfying your eagerness to pay ball, that's something that you'll going to suffer.
Suspensions and possible trade is far better than being outcast from the league.
Agree, the PBA is very keen on complying the protocol set by the IATF so they can't afford that single mistake as they will cost them the cancellation of the opening if this issue is blown out of proportion. Jio Jalalon has been on the news months ago, it was a personal one and he even have a viral video on that. He is rumored to be traded with that incident but that does not push through but with this recent incident I don't think the Magnolia management will just let this pass away, Jalalon is just too hard-headed. |

It seems like betting/odds tracker noticed that there are still a lot of bets in favour of Pacquiao. So, they have to balance everything out to generate a good betting lines.
And I agree, It won't touch below 2.0 considering how dangerous Spence is for Pacquiao, but many bettors still believe Pacquiao could win this one If he will apply a smart veteran tactics. +2.65 might be the final betting line for the Pacman.
In this forum, yeah there are many users who still thinks Pacman could pulled out this one but I don't think it's enough to sway or even balance the betting odds in favor of Manny. If indeed Manny will win this one, then lucky are those who bet for him as they will win big just like the fight against De La Hoya and boxing analyst would start praising him for his achievements but they never did praise him before the fight as most of them favored Errol to win. |

Teams can start negotiating for a trade tomorrow as what is said in the article below. Will the Slaughter-Bolick and Ross-Cabagnot trade will be tackle on Monday? That remain to be seen but one for sure, Jio Jalalon will be traded i think with his latest caper of playing a game outside of the PBA without the knowledge of his mother team. PBA teams can once again make trades starting Monday

The question now is, will SMB still a beatable team if they have a healthy Bollic and Greg Slaughter?
If the answer is not, then PBA is not interesting anymore.
Of course, because they are just humans, they make mistakes as well and I think it always boils down to the chemistry of the team. Even if they form a super team but without chemistry, they'll not succeed with it, we've seen a lot in the NBA and it's not guaranteed. I agree, even though they are a strong team on papers but still they are humans and having that kind of lineup still has problems. Just like when CStand went to SMB, many of us think that SMB will be the automatic champion as they are a very strong team on papers but it doesn't translate on the court because of chemistry issues. But the good thing about this Fajardo-Slaughter tandem in the future is that they knew each other very well and they will set aside their ego and just play hard to win championships, unlike CStand that demanded a longer playing time. |

There are a lot of people posting here. In most of threads related to sportsbetting, most user just discuss about the match, how player performed, how they could perform etc but very few person discuss about odds, chances of winning a team and other factors related to bet.
Is it possible that most people only discuss here to fulfill their signature requirement? In my case, I don’t play games at casino. I used to play back in the day but not anymore while I'm still having sportsbet on most of the matches.
Be honest and share about you whether you post only for your signature requirement or you post because you are involved in gambling & you want to know or share knowledge.
You can spot a gambler by merely reading his post I think. Gamblers usually discuss betting odds and the possibility of winning before putting their money on the teams/players they have selected, if it is not present on one's post then I think he is only here to fulfill his/her signature requirements. |

It looks like this game is becoming some kind of new phenomenon.
I've seen a lot of blockchain-based games, but till now they haven't revealed any big successes.
Here when it comes to Axie Infinity it looks like we will be witnessing the first blckchain based game to be successful in the mainstream. We should reach half a million players a day soon !!!
It's a phenomenon now especially in the Philippines as many individuals are engaging into it. Earning 30USD per day is no joke in a third world country like the Philippines. But in every opportunity, there is a corresponding risk so be careful if you are planning to invest in Axie. Currently, to start an Axie team you need to have at least more than 1K USD, that's three times the price when you have started last May. |

Donaire's jab is also good in my opinion, the problem is that Inoue is so much faster than him, that's why he was beaten to it. And if he wanted to counter, he need to have a perfect timing, and usually that's what happen in the first fight. But as you have said, as the fight gets longer, Donaire's chances are getting thinner. He needs to get up and shoot for his left hook early so that Inoue will be on the defensive and can't get this jab easily.
Donaire needs to think of better ways unlike their first match where he throw lots of punch and even he convert some Inoue just take it and not being alarmed, the only way he can beat Inoue is for him to take a lucky combo with strength on it and not just a let go punch. We can't say the chance but since Inoue still the favorite here, Donaire really needs to work more to find the right strategy. Rematch might have different outcome but hopefully it's more entertaining than the last fight. Good counter with precise timing will be the key and its true that Donaire had thrown lots of punches but only a few do really land out successfully which is really waste of stamina. If you do try to look at on Inoue where punches do have higher percentage of landed hits plus the power or impact then its no doubt that it could really knocked down opponents. I dont have any problems with Donaire in terms of experience but he should really need to speed up a bit or enhance his footwork and would focus a bit more on counter punching which is he is known for. "The Flash" shouldnt really be just for show. Even if Donaire could catch Inoue with his patented left hook, I don't think he could knock out the Monster as the latter has proven that he don't have a glass chin as shown in their first fight plus the fact that he seldom hit Inoue on that fight. I agree that he needs to work out more on his footwork and counter punching but at this stage of his career, I don't think it would change as it wouldn't change overnight. I'm just thinking that this would be the retirement fight for Donaire because of age and he is not Manny Pacquiao that even if old, many fans are eager to see him fight. |

how true that Robert bolic is being recruited san, Miguel Beerman, I'm just curious about the trades that SMB corp is doing they want to be champions every season for the PBA? and what will be the team will receive in exchange for that player, I hope the PBA will change this kind of trade were in one team is stacking star players and the other team with bench players.
That's the rumors and the blockbuster trade starts with a rumor lol, so I believe that there is some truth on this. Alex Cabagnot and Chris Ross in exchange for Greg Slaughter and Robert Bolick, is it fair? IMO, no it is not but NorthPort is always been the farm team of SMB Group of companies so I will not be surprised if one day I would wake up hearing this news. Too many issues that the PBA is facing at the moment and it seems that they are dragging its feet underground and they don't seem to care about their supporters. |

Even people who are into cryptocurrency will have a hard time convincing people to engage in it while Pacman owns some crypto, I don't think he has deep knowledge about this stuff. He might have been used as an endorser of some coins as he is a big name but I doubt he understands the "use-case" of the coins he promotes.
The key factors for Pacman to win is focus on training which I think will not be on his this time around.
Have you seen Youtube videos showing the everyday training of Pacquiao? (Just one example who regularly posts - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FhqP4oJjPQ ) It seems that he is pretty serious with his training. As usual, he always draws crowd on him. This is really an interesting fight to watch out for. And the lawsuit seemed not discussed anymore. Maybe, they already settled or will have talks after this Spence fight. When Pacman trains, he gives his all as f there is no tomorrow, that is the best trait Pacman have IMO. Speed and power seem to be on Pacquaio's side but the endurance and stamina will be questionable as he is old now. I've got my basis on that, if you look at the Thurman fight, he faded away on the second half of that fight. If not for that knockdown, Thurman could have win that fight. |
