Day 2 Ranking
Grabe, walang patawad na tinambakan ng Beermen yong Converge at makikita talaga sa larong kanina na medyo bageto pa yong Converge plus injured pa pala si Jeron Teng. Sa first game naman, pinangunahan na naman ni Mikey Williams yong panalo ng Katropa na para bang ipinakita sa management na karapatdapat siya sa sweldo na hiningi nya hehe.  Makikita nyo rin ang rankings sa pangatlong post sa thread na ito. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5403342.msg60404096#msg60404096 Pumapalag pa yung fuel master nung first half pero umalagwa din yung Ka-Tropa ung 2nd half at talagang nagpakitang gilas si Williams, hindi na nakapalag yung Fuel master nung nagsimula na un rally ng TNT, sa second half parang ung terminong nag-"MAMA" grabe yung 2nd chance points at offensive rebounds ng SMB, sablay yung pagkakapili ko sa converge wala pala ung rookie big man at injury si Teng kaya hindi sila nagkaroon ng pagkakataon na dumikit ng single digit, sa miyerkules bawi na lang ulit.. Wala talagang nagawa ang Converge sa laki ng SMB, daming threat kasi, kailangan nilang i double si Fajardo pero ang result ay open naman ang shooters ng SMB, kaya kahit saan wala silang panalo. Medyo bumaba lang ang lamang pero double digit pa rin.
Congrats nga pala sa inyo @inthelongrun and @bisdak40... leading na kayo. |

Everyone talks about reputation, reliability, history and so on. But in fact, there is always a fairly significant percentage of brave (or greedy) gamblers who are willing to take risks and play in a new project if it offers good bonuses. So the easiest and fastest way to gain credibility and market share is to make good investments, offer bonuses and pay them fairly. I think this investment will pay off.
That's also one thing, a new casino that comes out usually gives out a good offer for their bonuses and stuff. It is why there are gamblers that do try out a new one even it's uncertain. Those attractive bonuses are for real and getting their attentions. It's a part of how new casinos are getting their customers first before to build trust for having many users. Almost all people likes money and are attracted to it and a gambling is kinda known for some to make money, that's why a gambling site won't be completed if without those welcome offers and other types of bonuses. With the bonuses involved, it could mean that a gambler can only risk a smaller amount than usual in order to get the most out of their game and if ever things didn't go well like if a new casino turned into a scam, I think it's fine since many player didn't put their full trust yet and they didn't deposit bigger amounts. Many of the players that are only after the bonus can come and go, I mean they won't stick on the site, so there is also a big risk involved for the operators. If the operators will allow bonus abuse, then for sure there's a risk on their side. Bonus are created in favor of the casino, it's like a bait for gamblers to get attracted and try their platform and once they already fall in love with the the platform, that's where gambling sites will already make profit consistently. |

Actually, SMB's outside shooting was also clicking that game, especially Marcio who had some great contributions from the 3 point area.
I saw the old Lassiter in that game, there was no hesitation from him and the shot was really accurate. He had 12 points and he was 3 of 7 from outside. However if you look at the stats, it was really the rebounding that made a big difference in this game, and it was dominated by the SMB. SMB total rebounds was 62 and 21 of that are offensive rebounds, while Converge only has 32 rebounds, see the big difference. |

It is not mandated by BSP to interview customers via video call to get your "KYC" or know your customer details to update your customer record on their system.
You have a point, but as much as I hate what I'm about to say, I don't think there's a need for BSP to explicitly mention "how" they should gather those data. They can actually interview us if they want, or they can request us to go to their office for an interview if we don't want to do it online. As long as it's mandated by the BSP, they would do the necessary steps to comply, so if we will not comply, they can just close our account so they'll not be penalize. I'm not aware of the steps but KYC is really mandated. |

Hindi tatagal papasok din ang NBA dito sa atin kasi papasok na rin si Kai Sotto eh, yan din yata yung ginawa ng NBA nung nakapasok si Yao Ming sa liga kasi parang sinabayan nila yun para maganda ang market nila sa China.
Sa tingin nyu anong team kaya ang makakakuha kay Kai Sotto? Sa tingin ko isa din ang Warriors sa mga gustong kumuha sa kanya pero mas maganda kung sila talaga ang makakakuha sa first pure breed representative ntin sa NBA para mahasa talaga ng husto ang kanyang talent.
Pagkakaalam ko parang magkakaroon ng NBA academy sa Pampanga. Parang yan yung napanood ko sa balita dati kaya papasok talaga sila. Ang laki ng market ng NBA sa bansa natin at sana i-consider nila yun at ng mga teams na hindi lang pang market ang galing ng pinoy kundi pati sa paglalaro din, sana makapasok si Kai. Nanonood ako ngayon NBA draft at pang 8th pick na sa round 1. Sana nga ay tuloy-tuloy na ang pagpasok nila kasi sayang ang Pinas, isa ang bansa ntin sa mga untapped resources pagdating sa NBA at nasimulan na ni Kai Sotto ang pagpasok sa NBA bilang kauna-unahang pure breed na pinoy na papasok sa liga pero yun nga, di sya pinalad na ma draft ngayong taon. Pero sige lang, bata pa naman si Kai at meron pang room for improvement para maging isa na talaga syang NBA player sa susunod na draft. Tyagain lang nya andaming undraft na sumikat ngayon gaya na lang ni GP2 pero syempre iba din yung kwento sa kanya since anak sya ng hall of famer, siguro dahil kay Kai lalong lalakas ung merchant ng NBA dito sa bansa natin. hindi man sya ngayon nakapasok sa mga susunod na attempt nya malay natin, marami pa namang taon para sa kanya basta lang wag sya maiinjury ng mabigat. Sana lang ung supporta ng gobyerno sa kanya bilang aspirant na makapagbigay karangalan sa bansa eh mas lalong matutukan. Sabagay atenista naman si Kai at malakas din kapit ng bata sa mga pangilinan, malamang I-calimed nanaman ni super coach Chot yung parangal pag sumikat ung bata.. Wag nalang anting isipin yung advantage na makukuha ng NBA kung kukunin nila si Kai Sotto, mas maganda kung ma draft si Kai dahil sa anking galing niya. Sa ngayon, mukhang kulang pa talaga, marami pang dapat i improve kay Kai para makapasok sa NBA, saka may one season pa naman, tingin ko enough na yan para mas ma improve siya. |

What a game by the TNT.
Mikey Williams contributed hugely in this game, Phoenix did win the 1st half but it was the TNT who dominated the 2nd half.
Williams scored 27 points on his first game this season if I'm not mistaken, he still hasn't change, he really is still a superstar.
He already made an adjustment last season and he dominated, so I would not be surprise if he wins the best player of the conference again with the way he is playing. By the way, the 2nd game seemed not fun to watch if you are a fan of converge because SMB is clearly dominating them now and the lead could balloon to 20 points. SMB will win and they will have a major bounce back after a lose against the Ginebra. Too early to say to be the best player for this conference but its really possible especially if Williams will stay consistent and have this winning moment always. TNT is one of the big contender for this conference, I can see them playing in the semis. On the other hand, SMB have to bounce back and claim their win again, their last match against Ginebra is very close, unfortunately they failed to win but that's ok since all of the teams now have their own losses, SMB just need to bounce back to get back on track. They will bounce back as at some point they already lead 30 points in this game, no way converge will have a big run against a good team, I would say this game is already over as SMB will not allow to melt down in the 2nd half. If you are correct then that is good for me as I bet on the SMB spread in this game. That 30 points lead is already gone but SMB is still having a very comfortable lead, SMB just owned the paint, and converge could only rely on their outside shooting, good thing some of the 3 point shots are falling and that make them compete a bit in the 2nd half. |

A fixed game or a fight is confidential, therefore both parties are discussing it. The other one is after the title, and the other one is after the money.
But there's always a chance that the information is leaked, remember that no secrets are safe when the purpose is cheating. Fix game is hard to find though unless you are from the inside or you have inside information, but it's operated by a syndicate so it's a very risky idea to associate with these people. Yes, there is and I believe that an illegal secret is ain't that safe because time will come that it would be leaked, they better pray that there's no mole inside their circle. Although, most of the time we are only speculating about it because of some fight that is already too unbelievable to happen but we can't know for sure because luck is also one of the huge factor. Anyway, speaking about rigged games/fight. There's this speculation about Jake Paul vs Tyroon Woodley that the latter was forced to get KO'd and videos are surfacing in the internet about what was Jake Paul is trying to say in the ring moments before Woodley got KO'd. What do you think about it guys? |

Magsayo by KO/TKO or Vargas by Unanimous/Split decision
^ That's the most likely result of the fight that I can see. Magsayo would likely invest in the body early on (like chopping a tree) before going for the chin. Vargas to try to keep his distance and outbox him (possible KO win too if he catches Mark with a clean counter).
Another factor to consider in this fight is Magsayo's faster recovery time because of his youth. He might get hit and hit by Vargas but he could absorb/endure more.
I might go with Magsayo to win by a unanimous or split decision, I mean he does have some chance to end the fight against Vargas by KO/TKO but not as good with the chance of UD or SD. The latter is also an experienced fighter so we have to consider that he will also try and produce good scores every round against the title holder and current champion. |

Honestly, he should just forget about getting in LHW as it's frankly clear that he's nowhere near getting a win against Bivol and his not that heavy hitter in that weight class considering it's not his comfortable weight.
What do you suggest Canelo to do next? Who should he fight? He has clear his weight division in all organizations. He is feeling tight and bored in his middleweight. He could either fight everyone for the second time (most likely not) or go down to other division? That also could be a problem, as Canelo is rather huge, which means he would have to cut a lot to fit in. Cutting weight = low on stamina = no KO power. He might be bored enough because he has done some clean-up in his own division, so it's only natural for him to climb back and forth in-between divisions. But now that he has learned a lesson not to mess in the LHW so that might be his sign that LHW is not for him, well, he managed to defeat one boxer in that division so his record in that division is tied to 1-1 but he can't deny that his name was really scathed after he got defeated by Bivol. After GGG, I think he should go against Jermall Charlo in the middleweight division. |

And guess what, LeBron is now a billionaire athlete and that makes him the first active NBA player to have that status. Surely his investments in himself and hard work is ripe enough to reap and didn't go to waste as he's still one of the most wanted player in the league. The man has still few seasons to go but he's still versatile enough to do some lifting to the team, though he's not that superhuman LeBron anymore but he can still produce good numbers.
People do really easily get disappointed whenever they dont see those numbers or trying to push on what Prime Lebron could do compared into the current Lebron that we do have today.  Speaking out about investments then its a personal choice yet we've seen some athletes do really lost track and rather spending up like there's no tomorrow and ending up to be poor once their career is over due to unwise spending on different things unlike on other players which do really have goals or preparations since not forever you would be staying on your sport and make money out of it. That's a fact, people are finding it hard to believe that LBJ is not the same LBJ we know who can literally push and carry the whole team to the finals. Yes, the man can still produce good numbers but those numbers can't even compare to those days where he does the job for the team. It will take some time and sooner they will realize that he's not that good anymore as his age are also trying to catch-up on him. There's only few players out there who had the right investment that turns out good these days. We could name us but that's just really few compared to those players who had a bad choice when it comes to their money. |

I am not certain how the boxing experts like in the forum assess Beterbiev, however, considering only the skills, should he be included in the top 10 pound for pound best boxers? He should be included, I reckon. What is your assessment, @Boafeng?
For sure, he should at least crack the top 10 by now, but let's see how those boxing analyst will put Arthur on their next listing. And speaking of Beterviev, his fight with Smith is not PPV, but interesting numbers: The June 18 edition of Top Rank Boxing on ESPN fired on all cylinders, including a main event where an average of 912,000 viewers tuned in for Beterbiev’s second-round, technical knockout of Joe Smith Jr. Beterbiev defended his unified lineal/WBC/IBF light heavyweight championship while violently snatching Smith’s WBO title in Saturday’s headliner at Madison Square Garden’s Hulu Theater in New York City. https://www.boxingscene.com/beterbiev-smith-main-event-drew-average-audience-912000-viewers-on-espn--167128So I guess that's a good numbers for that fight. Maybe Beterviev's next will surely headline a PPV event. Maybe Arum is just testing the waters for this one. ESPN and Top Rank should consider him as a good PPV fighters now. Who will be next for Beterbiev? If I was the promoter it should be against Dmitry Bivol for the undisputed light heavyweight championship. All fans of all types of sport will watch it, it will create millions in profit for the fighters, the sponsors and the promoters. However, I am quite certain this will not happen hehe. I am not certain why boxing promoters are like this. It might only be organized when they are old, very much similar to Amir Khan vs. Kell Brook or Mayweather vs. Pacman. Rumors has it that will be Yarde first. It could be a fight that could go on PPV and it's good though. And just like what others said, UK fans love their local boxer so for sure this will be a sold out fight if they chooses Yarde's hometown. So we might have to wait for maybe next year for the undisputed fight to happen between Bivol and Beterviev. So yeah, Beterviev will be like 38 years old next year, and Bivol still on his prime, just saying. Maybe we will factor that out once they fight. Yes, rumors has it that Artur Beterbiev will face Yarde first for a title defense possible after the Canelo-GGG trilogy and it's possible that an undisputed fight in light-heavyweight will happen next year, 2023. Bob Arum will milk first the remaining challenger in the said weightclass before he gives a go signal to his boy to go against Bivol for an undisputed fight, we know the Bob and that's the nearest scenario I can think of. https://www.badlefthook.com/2022/6/23/23179727/artur-beterbiev-vs-anthony-yarde-will-be-next-bivol-fight-possible-early-2023-arum-boxing-news-2022 |

In my opinion, slots is one of the most vibrant and emotional gambling games, so it attracts users. At least for me it is one of the games of chance from which I get a real pleasure in the game.
That's why many people love playing slots and keep playing with more money. I also enjoy playing slots, but I play just for fun and not after winning. But I realized that playing slots can make us forget the time and money we spend. And that is what causes many people to have gambling problems because they lose track of time and control. Slots were created in the first place with the advantage of casinos and not for the gamblers so of course it would result into a not so desired outcome if we just let ourselves play that machine without setting some borderlines when to go. Don't read me wrong, slots are fun to play and makes us forget the real world but that's also the problem right there, we will lost track of time as well as our money and already too late to tell that we've spend too much. |

Sa tingin ko hindi sugal ang basihan, kung gusto talaga ng NBA na gumanda pa ang market nila sa Pilipinas, kailangan meron silang representative na makakapag hype sa mga fans, at sa ngayon, ito na ang magandang chance na mag draft sila ng pinoy, kung baga, business strategy dahil alam naman natin ang business ang NBA.
Basta tiwala lang kabayan, pasok yan si idol Kai.
Oo kabayan alam din naman ng NBA na madami talagang fans dito sa atin at marami ding mga filipino community na nasa ibang bansa, tignan mo ung career ni Idol Jordan Clarkson, kahit papano ung pagiging proud nya na may dugong pinoy sya eh nag angat sa pangalan nya, pero iba itong case ni Kai kasi first pure pinoy bread ang bata at talagang talent wise may ibubuga ang patpating higante ng Pinas. Tiwala lang at tuloy lang sa pageensayo madaming team ang pwedeng magbigay ng contrata sa kanya basta sipag at tyaga lang muna sya sa pag attend ng mga practices. Hindi tatagal papasok din ang NBA dito sa atin kasi papasok na rin si Kai Sotto eh, yan din yata yung ginawa ng NBA nung nakapasok si Yao Ming sa liga kasi parang sinabayan nila yun para maganda ang market nila sa China. Sa tingin nyu anong team kaya ang makakakuha kay Kai Sotto? Sa tingin ko isa din ang Warriors sa mga gustong kumuha sa kanya pero mas maganda kung sila talaga ang makakakuha sa first pure breed representative ntin sa NBA para mahasa talaga ng husto ang kanyang talent. |

^^ He is young and very ambitious, tall and has the advantage on Canelo (reach and height). And he has a good power too, so it's a perfect match for Canelo. But so far he is not on the radar of his team, after GGG maybe they will have to think if they will go for rematch with Bivol. Beterviev is out of the equation for him. There could still be some boxers in 168 lbs that could be safe fight for Canelo. Maybe one try at light heavy weight with Bivol and that's it, regardless of the outcome.
For sure David Benavidez will be considered in the future as a Canelo opponent, maybe after the Bivol rematch because there is not much option out there for Canelo when he beat GGG in September lol. As early as now, Canelo is already talking of a rematch with Bivol but if the unification fight between Bivol and Beterbiev pushes through then that rematch will take some time to materialize as that fight is what people wanted to see. There's a chance that they will share the same ring but that's too early to speculate for now Canelo have an upcoming fight with GGG this September. Though the fight has almost no hype at all but I'm just gonna watch not because this is interesting to see but because maybe this will be GGG's last fight, we can't know for sure but I won't pass on that chance on seeing him the last time. An undisputed fight in light-heavyweight will surely be a good fight to watch as the names like Betebiev and Bivol is participating that said fight. That said, if that fight will purse the Canelo should wait some time again. Honestly, he should just forget about getting in LHW as it's frankly clear that he's nowhere near getting a win against Bivol and his not that heavy hitter in that weight class considering it's not his comfortable weight. |

LeBron James is investing in himself to make his own needs so that he can still play exceptional when he is on the court, he can't be playing that well at his age if he's not paying attention to his health. LBJ's age falls in the same bracket as Carmelo Anthony and Howard but LBJ is literally different. Right now, he's more of setting up the table just like CP3 did in Phoenix.
That's right. AFAIK, he's budgeting himself with a whopping $1M for his personal training just to get in shape despite his age not getting younger. A staggering $1.5 Million expenditure to be exact annually, and that includes the proper training equipment with its latest technology, personal trainer to keep him versatile especially now that his age is growing day by day and chef to make his meals a healthy one that would surely needed in his body. Yes, I also saw that meme circulating in the internet recently to make some argument about who's the goat. But for me, Michael Jordan, LeBron James and Stephen Curry is already a goat in their respective generations and there's no need to argue about that as they aren't born in the same year or atleast born with a gap of 3-5 years. Well, that's part of his investment to make himself in his best shape despite the age of his going up and he's not going back to the old number. But he can defy that age of his with the latest technology and that's why he's invested a lot in his personal training and growth. He's not just an athlete and a professional basketball player, he's also good knowledge for an investment like this. Yes, I also saw that meme circulating in the internet recently to make some argument about who's the goat. But for me, Michael Jordan, LeBron James and Stephen Curry is already a goat in their respective generations and there's no need to argue about that as they aren't born in the same year or atleast born with a gap of 3-5 years.
No argument, they're all in the greatest era that they can share with the younger ones and they have their own prime and anyone can call them GOAT for real. And guess what, LeBron is now a billionaire athlete and that makes him the first active NBA player to have that status. Surely his investments in himself and hard work is ripe enough to reap and didn't go to waste as he's still one of the most wanted player in the league.

So what really happen with Calvin Abueva?
The words JAPAN! JAPAN! JAPAN! and BYE PBA! that's big, is here serious with that, and will soon leave the PBA for JAPAN?
He was really frustrated because he thought there should be no call, but the words coming from his mouth, it simply tells that he is not 100% happy playing with the PBA.
We can't still know for sure what Calvin Abueva meant by that remarks he made after he was ejected from the game. Maybe we can have some further details about it tomorrow as PBA Commissioner Willie Marcial summons him to his office regarding the remarks he made. Things are getting bad in the PBA nowadays, I mean, it's not the PBA we've seen as we grow. Maybe Abueva could find his journey in Japan B. League, we will get some more information about that soon. |

Addiction to something happens because the sufferer feels comfortable, full of satisfaction (dopamine effect) when doing that. slots feature amazing animations and also great prizes easily if the player is lucky. I don't like slots but for lottery and soccer betting, I really love and feel addicted  Just because it's easy to do doesn't mean you need to play it every day and that's what most people became after they suffered such addiction from playing slot machines. some of them are buried in debt because of these small matters that they could have avoided if they remained patient about their life. Slots are addictive because the environment where they put them has lots of people enjoying what they are doing at the moment but in reality, most of them are soon to suffer some serious depression when they lose everything they have in this tricky game. most of the people who try to play slots for the first time will definitely win, this is what spurs them to continue playing and playing until without realizing it, they have become addicted. If a slot player is able to control himself and never owes anyone else to play slots then daily slot players will be able to control their finances, but this is not an easy job. slots are indeed addictive if you are to give in! this basically will depend on the person himself to what extent he will dwell on this gambling activity. if he doesn't contemplate on what's going on with his life, he can really go deep into this game. and it will be too late before he understands that he's in terrible situation. but he needs to address his situation if it is already affecting his health, finances and his relationship with his immediate family. It's already been proven that slots machine are more highly addictive than playing other games in the casino, and that is because of there graphics and lights that will really stick into the people's brain, especially that golden-yellow dollar sign. But, I really do agree that even if it's addictive, it's up to us how we counter these situations and make the proper mindset before we decide to play these machines because if we just let ourselves gave in then I'm afraid that a terrible situation is already approaching our way. |
