So in the end, you are responsible of where you play.

+1 to this.

While being responsible for the safety of our funds, be responsible also to only spend them on trustworthy sites. As a crypto-gambler, we should already know that we are playing anonymous here and once the site fuc*ed us up, it's the end now and there's nothing we can do about it.

But honestly, in some cases, the site is right where they tagged their users as violating their Terms of Service. Since we don't know every side of the story, we can't comment if that site is really honest or just creating an issue for that involved user. In that particular situation, a site representative shall explain all the details of why it ends up banning its users to make it clear at both parties.

Suns vs Nets game should be a good one.  The Suns have been on fire lately and the Nets are just starting to get into their groove.  I'd never bet against KD, but I think the Suns have a good shot to take this one home.  We'll see.  The game is on NBATV and starts in a couple of hours.  I didn't see anything else on the schedule for today that looked too exciting, but I'll have this one going in the background.  The real fireworks will be on Christmas day though.  I probably won't be able to be pulled from the TV once those games start.  I'm already looking forward to it...

I think the other way. The Suns' 15 games winning hot streak will now be ended by the Brooklyn Nets.

Chicago Bulls vs Miami Heat is a good watch too. Both teams are now joining the Eastern Conference competition unlike before that you can just expect a strong Eastern Conference team that was on Rank 1-3. They are a big thing now.

Lakers vs Pistons on the other day. I want to see what will happen once Lebron and Stewart will meet eye to eye again. Since it's a drama, I think we will see them shaking their hands before the tip-off.  Grin

I don't think this will stop anytime soon as they can still gain viewers and they are still earning money from this.
Their respective promoters are good in looking for opponents that can sell the fight.
Maybe, we will see more of them in the next coming months, those ex-athletes who want try their hands inside the ring.

Since Jake Paul is more of considering his boxing career as a professional match, I hope he will choose the next opponent that is also an active boxer in the same league. He can still change people's views about him and regain respect. Totally different from Logan Paul that uses boxing as a form of easy-revenue scheme and challenges famous boxers so he can take advantage of their popularity.
2784  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Casimero vs Butler ordered by WBO on: November 27, 2021, 11:18:22 PM
Based on what I see in Butler's fight highlights, he doesn't run, he is mostly the aggressor in the fight that's why I like this fight because I'm expecting that there's a KO, but of course, I'm hoping that Casimero will get that win so the fans will be impressed and they will push the fight between Inoue.

That's good if Butler is like that. Casimero likes a close fight, so is Butler. We can now see what we didn't able to see during the fight of Casimero against Rigo where 50% of Casimero's stamina was just used on chasing the latter lol.

It's a must-win for Casimero so he really needs to give his all which I'm sure he will. Inoue is waiting if he will win in that match.

As usual, if the schedule will be followed, expect betting sites to list the match 2 days before the fight.

To my fellow gamblers here... who are following the MPBL? Maybe you can make a thread on this particular league so we can find more information about the game and the news. Anyone, please don't hesitate since MPBL is getting more popular now.

I think let's wait for the league official resume so that there are now active bets to choose from. I follow the league, not just the league is now on the trend but because one of my friends there is playing at the Pasig Realtors (my hometown). The homecourt is also the venue of the former Pasig Blue Pirates in the MBA league (Metropolitan Basketball Association).

Going back to crypto, I can't confirm if there's a crypto-site that listed MPBL games before.

With the exhibition matches, the real boxing importance keeps shrinking. Just our forum discussion itself a proof, because we are discussing much about the exhibition matches that are played than the real boxing. Somehow the matches aren't played with unmatched opponents.

There are real boxing events threads out there. I think only 2-3 threads are existing exhibition matches here. Some professional boxing event threads are just closed recently because the event was now ended with the recent one between Terence Crawford vs Shawn Porter, Canelo Alvarez vs Caleb Plant, etc.

We don't have a choice but to accept that more exhibitions matches will be organized in the future.

But as far as this thread is concerned, the subject we are discussing here is sanctioned and tagged as a professional match.

My parlay bet for the later game:



No technical analysis was involved. I just want to take the risk including the Timberwolves ML because recently they destroy my parlay by beating a much stronger team, Miami Heat. Houston Rockets also surprises me when they beat the healthy Chicago Bulls and they might repeat it again against the Charlotte Hornets.

Not expecting much at my parlay but who knows. Total odds were @73 (There are still 4 matches below that I didn't include in the screenshot as it's already long and the Twolves line now moves to @3).
2788  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: GGG vs Murata December 29 on: November 26, 2021, 11:02:34 PM
I am not saying that he will forget how to fight but that he could come a little bit rusty and against a fighter like GGG that can be more than enough to secure him a win.

Regardless of Murata is active or not within the past 2 years, I already pointed out his experience is lacking compared to GGG. Murata's total fight was 16 against Canelo's 43 with almost a clean record, the gap was too wide. Murata just also consider to bout with GGG because he filled the vacant slot that was left by Canelo as we know the latter is moving up a weight class. Again as I previously mentioned, Murata got the full WBA Super Middleweight champion not by fighting for it. The fight against GGG is his first fight since attaining that title.

Right, and the level of opposition of GGG as compare to Murata is very diferent. GGG has far fight superior level of boxers, while I would say that Murata only B-level fighters. And add that to his ring rust and inactivity for 2 years and we will see that GGG has all the advantage. The only thing that has on Murata is that he is fighting on a familiar territory, because this fight will be in Japan.

I hope so that playing on the home country, Murata somehow gained a boost. If only his previous fights have the same intensity and level as GGG, I can say that he has an edge to take GGG in a close bout but I don't see it that way.

Murata is against a monster. Want to see how he will deal at it and show the community what he got.
2789  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING] Logan Paul vs Mike Tyson on: November 26, 2021, 10:58:42 PM
Interesting moment i think, is that many professional boxers bet on Tyson rather on Logan Paul. For example:

 That guy (and many other sportsmen) understand that Logan not a real boxer, more like joker.
The main reason majority of the boxing community is against Logan Paul and Jack Paul is because they never fought as a professionals and from the first fight itself they were making millions of dollars which is unheard of in boxing community. They usually start out less than a thousand dollars in show local fight club and move their ranks which will take years while Logan and Jake starts to earn from their first fight Cheesy.

I pointed that out in some of my previous posts if I remembered. For Paul Brothers to somehow get the attention of the real boxing fans, they should climb up to where it all started as a boxer.

Since they take boxing as a business, earning decently with just a few minutes works on the boxing ring, they don't care now if the public will criticize them. Even someone dislikes them, they are still paying to watch the match. Don't expect they will lose on the exhibition match because a) they can change the rules to a no-winner rule b) likely it will be staged.

The bottom line, you are looking forward to decentralized gambling when you consider playing and putting money on crypto-gambling sites. Therefore, expect that you also need to deal with a decentralized environment wherein you won't see any authority to forward your complaint to the said crypto-gambling site.

To somehow minimize the risks, just play at those sites who already gained a good trust and reputation in the world of crypto-gambling. This online gambling court is far from happening.
2791  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: November 26, 2021, 10:43:28 PM

Most viewers have switched to MPBL and they also find it more entertaining especially if there are celebrity players who are showcasing their skills on the basketball ring. Manny Pacquiao always try his luck in all fields that he wants and he never stops until he succeeds which is really impressive.

I don't believe in that, you should show some proof to convince me.  

PBA is still more popular than MPBL and I don't see MPBL is competing with PBA since the players of the PBA are way better than the MPBL players, and some PBA players are representing our countries in international competition.

There's no question about the popularity of PBA. No way it can be dominated by other local leagues. There's also no proof that most viewers switched to MPBL but we have to accept that the league is gaining attention. We should look not only at a single tree but at the whole forest.

I'm following MPBL for a long and I can see clearly the difference between it on PBA that's why it gained attention from viewers since then. PBA is already business but now becoming more and more business. If MPBL's funding will be maintained, the league has the chance to surpass PBA's usual number of audiences but of course, in terms of popularity, PBA is the top.

Maybe he’s referring to MPBL now and this has been the second league to give spotlight to other basketball players, and give every cities to have a representative and play their game. Actually MPBP are way better just like NBA where every city have their own team while PBA works with private company name and it slowly going down because of so many issues with them. With MPBL, many players has the chance to shine and show their talent as well.

He's not referring to MPBL because he already stated it on the first line of the statement. Anyways, disregard now. Smiley

They're showing some good stats but as usual, this is just always going with the early of the season. When it's about to get near to the playoffs, they're falling shortly.

What do you mean Phoenix Suns are falling short when near playoffs?

Prior to playoffs, let's take the example of their last 32 games before the end of the 2020-21 NBA Season, their record is impressive, 24-8, and eventually reached the Finals later on. They are a big deal last season. If you are talking about previous seasons more, it's expected that they are not quite that impressive as they are rebuilding.
2793  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Casimero vs Butler ordered by WBO on: November 26, 2021, 01:16:15 AM
KO or not, I'm expecting that Casimero will certainly give his best on this fight. Maybe a quick end will give his fans good impression but as long as the fight goes clean and KO at any round, that would be fine to the other fans like me.
But for Butler, let's also give him the thought that he's also a good fighter that will also give his best shot on this fight. Well, but as a fan, we have our bias with Casimero.

Given most of us here are biased, we should expect that Casimero will be the dominant here. He's the champion here and Butler is the challenger. If no mandatory challenge is ordered by WBO, Butler won't have an opportunity to face the champion. That's where the inspiration will come from him because no need to fight other boxers as a requirement before facing the champion.

Snatching the title to Casimero will make Butler's name more popular that's why I see him as more encourage and eager to win compared to Casimero that has eyeing another target and not expected this mandatory fight. Although yes, it doesn't mean that Casimero won't prepare seriously. Of course, he is. It's not his style to look easy on every of his opponent.
2794  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING] Logan Paul vs Mike Tyson on: November 26, 2021, 12:57:42 AM
That's the pumping of young blood. The World knows Mike Tyson for his boxing. Young Logan Paul is an infant in boxing considering the matches Mike Tyson have played throughout his career. Logan Paul might be practicing hard atleast to last few rounds. Whoever wins, this match is gonna get recorded on the history of boxing. Another thing with this particular exhibition fight Logan Paul will gain more popularity.

I like your view about the fight however I don't understand why it should be that way. The match is just an exhibition match between an old legend and a Youtuber. There's no legacy to be built and gained on this match.

Analysis and technical discussion can't be applied there. There's even concern that this match will struggle to gather PPVs because of an obvious reason. I don't know how it will contribute to more popularity of Logan Paul as you are pointing to.
2795  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: government's traditional laws can't handle Gambling+cryptos on: November 26, 2021, 12:41:53 AM
Government only knows old school, cryptocurrency is entirely out of their league since all they know is how to make laws and how to steal money from people without getting in jail for such actions. Government are having a hard time to regulate gambling sites that are using cryptocurrency and not fiat, it's a new thing to them which they will need a lot of time to think about how to make new laws about it.

If they succeeded on doing so, for sure it will contribute a lot in the economy and hopefully they'll use it in the right way.

It's not government only knows "old school" but they are not just taking crypto gambling seriously. It's impossible that they won't do something to catch up with crypto especially building knowledge about it.

But I like it that way. Almost all crypto-gamblers are asking for anonymous gambling in the first place. Let's not wait for the government to now push their goals to regulate crypto in their own way. They are capable of doing that anytime if they will take it seriously.
2796  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Tommy Fury vs Jake Paul on: November 26, 2021, 12:31:32 AM
That media showing between the Furys and Jake Paul was the worst thing I've ever seen.  Jake was right when he said the oldest Fury was cringe.  It was worse than a trainwreck.  I guess I'm glad they're trying to do their part to promote the fight, but after that showing I'm not sure anybody would be more likely to put down money on a pay per view.  This is one fight I think I can say that I'll happily not watch, and be perfectly content seeing the KO punch and nothing more.  I just hope Jake Paul finds something else to do with his time after this.  I think everyone is starting to get tired of these antics.

Bring on Mike Tyson or Connor McGregor.  I don't think people are as invested in this Jake Paul fighting real boxers movement as they are in seeing sideshow events.

You have a point there. But Mike Tyson shouldn't be considered. I agree though to better call out McGregor. To make Jake Paul's fight worth to watch he should now start from the usual start-off of a professional boxer and climb his way up on the rankings.

Take offers, contracts, arrange fights, etc. against an active boxer on his weight class. As an influencer, he might get more PPVs doing that way compared to his considered crap fights by others.
2797  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: November 26, 2021, 12:17:58 AM
AFAIK, there's also another league for which some players from PBA that haven't taken the spotlight are playing there. I forgot the name of the league, it's also in our country.

Is that Philippine Basketball League - PBL?

Most of the players there are draftees to PBA. I think only a few players reverted from PBA to PBL.

Anyways, the league is already disbanded for a decade now.
2798  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: KCS to follow BNB? on: November 25, 2021, 11:13:59 PM
Do you think KCS will also make $500 anytime soon? I'm very much optimistic and trying to accumulate some KCS.

Anything is possible. However, when deciding if you want a piece of KCS for a long-term hold, you shouldn't compare it to the journey made by BNB.

BNB has lots of use-cases when ETH gas is skyrocketing like crazy. That's what the coin tried to solve and look, several DApps, even exchanges like Kucoin, are using and added BSC network to their respective platform.

If you trust KCS, or if the product of your DYOR tells you to invest in that coin, trust your judgement.

I think it will be proper if an online accredited court is set up to judge such cases, rather than leaving them uncensored.

If you are talking about crypto-gambling sites, that can't be applied. Others want anonymous gambling and don't want centralized stuff but like to take legal actions when the site is showing unprofessionalism to their actions. See what I'm trying to picture out there?

If you want that kind of setup, choose a gambling site that is registered to the government, mostly fiat sites, so you can file a lawsuit against the site.
