2721  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Gary Russell vs Mark Magsayo WBC Featherweight Title on: December 13, 2021, 10:46:48 PM
Yeah, more would choose Russell here than the underdog Magsayo since he's the one that they know most but he's quite inactive in the past. If we compare Magsayo on Russell, Magsayo is well-prepared than Russell although we don't know what he's been doing when he's not on the ring lately plus he's still the belt holder.

Actually, Magsayo is more popular compare to Russell here in this thread.

It's just that, even for locals, we can't really deny the fact that Russell is a big thing and the gap is really wide for the likes of Magsayo. However, it doesn't mean that an upset is not possible to happen.

It's a good show to watch at the start of the 1Q of 2022. I hope more PH boxers will pull some wins next year.

Has he even started playing in the D League yet? 
Is G league the same with D league? If so, then Thompson played per report.

Klay Thompson going full-speed in G-League practice, hits first 18 shots
He was also reported that he is joining the team practice already, so that is a sign that he is coming back soon but the organization does not give a specific date as they don't want us to expect so much.

Yes, it's the same. Officially, it was now called G League. Literally, he doesn't play for G League but rather just joins a practice together with their counterpart team there, Santa Cruz Warriors on which it turned out as good. I just hope he's not too aggressive on such practice as if you guys remember, he was almost ready for a return after the 2019 injury when he got injured again on a scrimmage last year, November.

No need to rush through as the Warriors are having a good rotation. Still unconfirmed if he will play Klay Thompson may be cleared to practice but return before Christmas seems likely but more likely it will.

The problem is that each spin is completely independent of each other and even when someone has lost big,the machine can continue to provide losing spins for another long period before it is going to give back some of that money to other players.I only saw this happened once,one big player lost 20000 USD and when the other entered after he got away he bet 0.10 USD and won 1000 USD but that happened only once and I never saw it happening again,so this happens pretty rarely at 0.01% of the cases I would say.

That makes sense and I'm sure some gamblers are already aware of that. It's just that, they need to make it right at the right time where that machine will suppose to give a win on who's sitting during that time. It's really tough but that's how playing slots machine is supposed to be.

Since no strategy in-game can be applied, others will try to beat the machine's code and algorithm instead. Of course, can only be applied on slots machines at physical casinos as no way they can do it in online casinos.
2724  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Nonito Donaire vs Reymart Gaballo (WBC bantamweight) on: December 13, 2021, 10:24:38 PM
That's right, but all the fights of Inoue, only Donaire give him a little problem,

Actually, that little problem is the most serious injury that Naoya Inoue has after a match. It's the first time he was sent to hospital after a fight to have some checkings. Donaire is the first boxer to give Inoue a tough win that's why later the former's later fight, age wasn't considered as an advantage.

Let's wait for what will happen next. Naoya Inoue has an upcoming fight and we will see again the strength of the monster. I don't see an upset but who knows.

Now for Reymart Gaballo, it's a good experience to fight with a legend. Experience is really the key alongside strength. I'm sure he got a good lesson after the fight and will consider that as an inspiration to train more.
2725  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Nonito Donaire vs Reymart Gaballo (WBC bantamweight) on: December 12, 2021, 06:49:54 AM

Nonito Donaire didn't show any signs of slowing down and got a KnockOut win against Reymart Gaballo in just a 4th round to retain his WBC title. Only Carabao are aging lol. A body shot by Donaire sent Gaballo kneeling in pain. The latter now suffers his first loss on his clean record.

After that win, lots of tweets hoping for a Donaire having a rematch against Naoya Inoue.
2726  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: 1XBIT campaign could be the next longest running campaign even with scam reports on: December 11, 2021, 07:59:21 AM

I doubt they will be able to sustain their campaign for long. And I also don't think their signature campaign is effective providing there are lots of companies sharing some exposures here. Actually, it's only a few times where I encounter some of their users that's why it's not even a threat if they will hold a signature campaign here. They think by spending on campaigns, they will be able to erase their negative feedback here.

I also believe that even a newbie or passerby knows how to select a good gambling site to test on.
2727  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: December 11, 2021, 07:48:30 AM

Just for a follow-up on PBA now allowing the live audience, it's not only Araneta Coliseum but also the MOA Arena in Pasay. Same with Quezon City, the Pasay City also approved PBA to held games there with audiences although it's likely next year to happen as the schedule on Araneta is now fixed.

To be exact, it's on Wednesday next week where PBA will be back on their original home arena which they last played last March 2020, the month where the NCR lockdown was implemented.

Fans welcome back as PBA games return to Big Dome
2728  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why should I use Kucoin over Binance? on: December 11, 2021, 07:38:38 AM

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think Kucoin already mandates the KYC requirements? If my memory served me right, they ask me for a KYC before I can withdraw. That was a few months ago and I'm sure I remember it right.

Regardless, and back to the topic, determining which exchange should you use depends on your reason why should you want to use them. Users have different preferences in the first place. As for my reason, I use Binance because of direct P2P exchanges without dealing first on our local exchanges and most of my coins on my portfolio are actively trading there.
2729  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: December 11, 2021, 07:31:49 AM
Well, it seems like focusing the ball on Lebron is helping the team because he got 33 points with this game.

I take that as a problem although if that's only the way for them to win, then so be it. Relying on Lebron shows us that the Lakers are not a competitive team to consider. Chemistry problems should be resolved by now but they are still struggling to make a best out of it. I don't think it's not about a Coach alone but also how their all roster behaves.

They will win today, they will lose another day, well much better than continuous loss. They are consistent in making inconsistencies and that should be solved.
2730  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Nonito Donaire vs Reymart Gaballo (WBC bantamweight) on: December 11, 2021, 07:26:27 AM
My heart tells me I wanted Donaire to win, but my mind says that we need new young breed to carry the torch for us.

We have the same sentiment honestly. I like Donaire to win but I think it's time now for another Filipino to show some spotlight on the world. Reymart Gaballo is just 25 years old and if ever he wins against Donaire, he is still in his prime to fight another champion on the way. As much as I want Donaire to win, as that will be his ticket for an Inoue rematch if given a chance, maybe time now to hang his gloves and allow youngsters to step in.

Several hours from now before the fight. I hope there will be a shared live coverage on Facebook.
2731  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Play2earn games on: December 11, 2021, 07:20:07 AM
How good will Play2earn games be that someone can rely on them for daily weekly or monthly income? Axie infinity was a blast but now it's no more a easier option for people that are struggling because the requirements to play the game is highly costly, are there free to play crypto games available?

Don't make it as the main source of income but rather a side income so you won't end up relying on those. Even if you will treat those games as full-time, also look at the possibility of other main income as Play2Earn games related to crypto are also affected by the volatility of crypto.

There are lots of free-to-play NFT games around but I won't talk about the possible profit you will earn there. You can use the power of your favorite search engine to look at those. Remember, always do your best DYOR as better as you can before investing and risking your money.
2732  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING] Logan Paul vs Mike Tyson on: December 11, 2021, 07:16:55 AM
They have prior arrangements for sure, and the limitations that they can do inside the ring.
This is why the referee can always stop the fight if he sees it is against their arrangements.
This is just an exhibition match, we can equate it to like entertainment matches.
Both boxers will just enjoy the fight inside the ring knowing that they will have their respective paycheck at the end of the day.
Also, this is why we mostly see the outcome as like draw because it depends on the judges not the actual performance inside the ring.

And not just because it's all about "exhibition match" but it's Logan Paul. There are exciting exhibition matches before that people really want to watch but everything involving Logan Paul is considered as crap. People pay just to expect Logan Paul to be Knock Out without realizing the chances for it to happen is low regardless of his opponent.

Paul doesn't bother about his reputation as his strategy is effective. He doesn't care about people's feedback as he was profiting from it. With only short exposure in the ring, sure money in return.
2733  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Jake Paul vs Tyron Woodley 2 - December 18 on: December 11, 2021, 07:13:41 AM
It's quite disappointing that it's back when they will be competing in a few weeks.
But on the other hand, even if you say that, actually I will still respect his decision if it is about his medical problem.
better discontinued than risking fury on her health. I feel that if there really is a problem with his health, retreating is a good thing to do and focus on restoring his body condition first.

There's a valid reason that's why no need to be disappointed. If Tommy will continue the fight just to avoid giving disappointment to those who are expecting already, the result might be more chaos aside from a normal loss. Furthermore, the event will still continue although with a different opponent.

But whatever the reason, valid or not, I looked at the fight as not getting enough hype. Organizers might be thinking that the rematch instead will somehow boost the sales a few days left before the fight.
2734  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Finally Climbs Back Above $50k, but can it Remain there? on: December 10, 2021, 09:50:57 AM

I don't know why such analysis if Bitcoin can remain at above $50,000, should be the main concern.

With the volatile market, we can always expect that there's always an attempt for a downtrend even amid a strong dominance and we already witnessed that many times. For speculators, a close to $100,000 is always what they wanted but this dip reminds us that we can't expect a continuous bullish trend for long. It's good for those who think who are left behind as the opportunity to buy at the dip is now a long wait.

People should now act if they want to get in or else, they will stuck again at the moment of waiting for the next dip once the bullish trend happened again.
2735  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Isn’t KYC anti-ethical to Bitcoin? on: December 10, 2021, 09:26:53 AM
When i first heard about bitcoin, one of the selling points then was the pseudo anonymity. But as of recently, it is hard to purchase any crypto without encountering a form of KYC.

I’m just curious of everyone’s thought on this.

Technically, yes.

But since people have no choice, in most cases, we rely on a third-party service to either buy or sell our cryptos. Somehow, for these businesses to run a legit service, they need to comply with the government's policy and KYC is one of the mandated terms they need to ask their users.

We still have P2P or DEXes out there however, it's no doubt that purchasing crypto in a centralized platform is the most convenient way*.
2736  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What about the new alts? on: December 10, 2021, 09:04:17 AM
I'm not sure about some of the coins that aren't yet famous. When it comes to long terms, I think we have to prepare a large capital to buy the top coins. Like ethereum, BNB, SOL, ADA. It's just that some of them are already too high when compared to last year, but I believe the coins I mentioned have high potential to become the best coins in the future.

The fact that those coins you have mentioned are now out of reach to considered (even it's not) by new players or those who small players, they are looking for new coins or small market cap coins to invest with and hope for the best that someday it will give them big profits.

It will be a tough task for them to hunt for those coins as even a promising one takes time to bloom. These people should not just expect for a quick profit but learn to put patience for everything.
2737  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is there a token on Bsc that isn' t a scam? on: December 10, 2021, 08:55:31 AM

This shouldn't be a question. Everyone should be vigilant and don't allow themselves to be dragged easily by the hype.

It's like the glory days of ERC20 tokens were useless and shi*tcoins are also created as fees back then here are cheap. The same approach as before, use your common sense before getting in a FOMO.

Once a coin gets hyped, rather join the craze with caution as you understand risk or research first about the project before getting in.
2738  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Taxes and regulations kill the odds on: December 10, 2021, 08:52:24 AM

I think we are just looking at the single side. I don't have any idea but try to research how much gambling operators in those countries profit overall since their inception prior to the new tax rate. In Europe, gambling is the most overwhelmed industries and even with how much tax is applied to those, they are still bagging some big profits in return as no casinos are losing in that line of business.

Just come to think of it, if those taxes and regulations are killing the odds, why there are still new operators joining the game and willing to spend big on the operations? Because the bottom line is, it's profitable!
2739  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you lose interest to deposit and play more..., on: December 10, 2021, 08:45:28 AM
There is no such thing as perfect online casinos because of the many rules and conflicting laws on the location of their players, there will always be accusations some could be valid some because of misinterpretation of the TOS, so I'd to ask all gambling players do you lose interest to deposit and play on the casinos you're playing if they have unresolved cases.

Like what kind of cases so we can have a reference on what you are referring to? Can you give examples?

Obviously, if my preferred platforms do some sh*t, I will refrain now from using them. But it depends on how heavy the accusation is and if some obvious unprofessional approach to customers is really done.

My future action towards a gambling site will be based on that.

2740  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is Shiba Inu Coin a better investment than Dogecoin? on: December 10, 2021, 08:41:36 AM
And the biggest risk is choosing a meme token that doesn't have a clear product use at all like Shiba Inu, so I personally am still very hesitant to choose it until now, especially during a moment of price decline like today.

For the purposes of "only-trading", traders don't really look at the real use-case of a certain coin regardless if it's tagged as sh*tcoin, dead coin, or meme coins. As long as the hype is there, the volume is good, the daily market cap is increasing, it was a candidate for a good coin to trade for short-term.

Don't take Shiba or Dogecoin as an investment where you will do a long-term hodl. They should be traded and take advantage of the price swings. Not unless your DYOR really tells you that these meme coins are worth holding, then it's your choice to hodl them for long.
