Golden State Warriors VS Dallas Mavericks
Tomorrow both teams will give their best for their respective teams, Curry, Green, Thompson come in and Doncic, Kleber also come in, both strong teams.

I'm going to place a bet tomorrow for the NBA Warriors vs. The Mavericks, of course, have to choose one of the best teams to bet on, for now the winning percentage is bigger for the Warriors, indeed the Warriors currently have a lot of fans, the Mavericks percentage is low, but.

Tomorrow's match will start, I will place a bet tomorrow for the lower percentage team, good luck on i side.
Finally a playoff match-up where both teams don't have any of their starters injured and going to be at full capacity to start a conference final.
Golden state warriors on home court sounds like a difficult task to overcome. But I think we all doubted the Mavericks to beat the Suns on their home court during game 7 too. So they are a team not to sleep on.

Just a reminder to everyone, final EPL round is here and ready to predict, this time the prize is 250,000 instead of the regular 100,000.

These are the games to pick, I went for a couple of upsets,,, and a couple of draws,,, never even hit 3/6 so who knows if I pick from 7 games. What do you guys think we make an agreement. If one of us wins any of the big prize, we split with those who agree? Wink

Noticed yesterday they had the bet free 6-6 known as Super 7 for the special occasion from the promotion below:
Sportsbet.io Pizza Day - Week long promotion!
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5398864.0

As for the prize, sure. We can do that. But I get 1/6 so not likely for me to get it either.
From going over your selections we have almost all the same results for who wins for the final EPL rounds.

Miami is now low leading the game with 17 pts advantage and I don't know why the heck I bet last night on Boston while Al horford and Marcus Smart is out of the game 1.
Your bet was looking good in the first half though Grin

The Heat's defensive performance and Celtics turnover in the third changed the momentum of the game. How many steals converted into points were there? The fourth quarter was just about trading three-pointers. It's good that the Heat have players that are unafraid to take those shots and respond.
The Heat's defense made the difference for them to get the win by such a wide margin against a playoff hardened Celtics team.
Butler had several steals later in the quarter which made it easier to get those points off of layups.
But Boston being Boston will plug those holes up for the coming games.

Big 3rq quarter by the miami Heat, I can't believe they limited the Celtics by just 14 points while they scored 39 points. That was the turning point of the game, that big run made them win the game. But is the series over? not yet, it's still one game, and Smart and Horford were out in that game.
Think it was team record in the playoffs for scoring points in a 2nd half or something to do be within the 3rd quarter as was mentioned before the 4th started.

Elon saving bitcoin? Who's going to save Elon then? Tesla stock is down 35% in the last 6 months and even more from its ATH? In traditional market this is a huge drop. Crypotocurrencies can easily go -50% and it's considered normal, but traditional stocks rarely go down more than 20% and if they do it's a bloodbath for investors.
Bitcoin doesn't need saving. It's on its way to $100k in the next 2 years.
Doesn't seem to be bothered with anything you said with his companies or stock prices of them.
He was talking with other billionaires of the world yesterday on topics such as twitter bots and climate change corresponding with Tesla of course.
So the usual.

So this will be their first majors tournament under the name Cloud9.
Here are the lines so to place a bet on either side:
https://sportsbet.io/sports/event/counter-strike/pgl-cs-go/pgl-major/cloud-9-vs-imperial-e-sports-62816bde8596ec71cb0ffd22

Heavy underdog odds for Imperial @4.80x at the time of writing this.
Imperial manages to survive another round as they're able to take down Cloud9 I honestly didn't expect them to reach this far and out of the remaining teams they're lucky to face Copenhagen Flames. The current odds are close to 50-50 after that upset while Copenhagen Flames continue to struggle and the map pool seems to be in favor of Imperial so there's a bit of value on their side since they're at plus odds (2.06).
Imperial had a good run as no one expected a team having only 3 months to make it possible getting this far in a major against sides with years playing together.
So well done and everybody during the match were saying they can't wait to see them play in their next tournament as it was a treat to see.

The only brazilians left in PGL are Furia which are not easy to play against either.
3029  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: May 17, 2022, 10:14:54 PM
Miami Heat for the first win -3.5. Homecourt advantage and to shock the Celtics how better their defense is than the Bucks.
I wish no players will be nervous and show a shitty game so that it will be more entertaining.
A lot of players are questionable to play for the Heat but I don't think they will miss this important game to have the first blood and be in front. Every game win will be a step closer to the Finals so they better give it all out.
Kyle Lowry is still not able to play.
Good luck everyone.
No Lowry tonite will be tough for Miami since he has playoff experience with his former team.
Have enough confidence in Bulter, Herro and Adebayo to get game 1 done on home court.
Celtics just destroyed last years champions in their last game so hope their not on a roll going into this Heat matchup.
They do play at another level in the playoffs as we all know.
3030  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: May 15, 2022, 11:40:55 PM
Bucks got smoked in game 7.
How embarrassing for last years champs losing by so much in the 4th quarter.
Atleast Boston didn't let the lead slip this time and took it away in style.

Now on to Mavs and Suns for their match up starting right now.
I am going for Suns to close this one out as they are the favorites on home court and going for the over.
3031  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sportsbet.io Betting discussion thread rev on: May 15, 2022, 11:35:58 PM
So many draws today in the EPL it is hard to say where the top four will place with the few matches remaining in the season.
Even Manchester city ended in 2-2 after a missed penalty by Mahrez that would of won them the match.

So the title is still up for grabs for Liverpool if they really want it.
As you had said "The quadruple is still alive!" for the reds.
3032  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UFC Fight Night & Main Event: Sportsbet.io Predictions & discussion on: May 15, 2022, 11:31:48 PM
I had a feeling fight will end early, but this was bad luck for Rakic in main event after his knee broke down, he said later this was repeated injury from training camp he had few weeks ago.
I think that Rakic was better until his injury and he would probably win the fight, but instead he is going to have longer recovery and maybe surgery.
Błachowicz was lucky this time and his next fight will be against new champion Glover Teixeira or Jiri Prochazka.
Both his legs were shot. Jan was busting up his left thigh that it didn't look normal after the takedown in the second.
The knee on the other leg just gave out when he stepped back.
Great win as it was given as a TKO.
Because Blachowicz kept working on those legs with calf and thigh kicks as you know he likes to do.
Glover called him out before the fight saying he will fight him and give him another title shot if he wins.
So I guess he is ready to go and take his title back from Teixeira only if he does win against Prochazka.

Imperial beat Bad News Eagles in their PGL majors match taking both maps to keep them in the tournament.

So now they faceoff against a tough Cloud9 squad and if you have been keeping up on this thread, now are aware they had to rebuild from the former team known as Gambit esports.

If not, here is a run down of them now: https://cloud9.gg/latest/cloud9-returns-to-counter-strike
The news when they we taken over a month or so ago:
https://www.hltv.org/news/33680/cloud9-returns-to-csgo-with-acquisition-of-gambit-roster

Red Bull improved the body of their car so down force keeps the front portion of their cars on the track and uses less of the tires.
This might be why with Max's driving abilities have seemed to figure out how to beat a well off Ferrari team.
Ferrari from next Gp will have a new bottom of the car for increasing the top speed.
The Mondial will be won by the team who will be able to improve more the car.

Indeed one of the most problematic issues of this year in F1 is the weight of the cars which has grown to conform to the new aerodynamic regulations.
However, much more curious than the changes you mentioned above is what I just read about the Ferrari... they want to change the paintwork to lose approximately 700 grams, the intention is to leave the carbon fiber exposed in some areas.
Is all this worth it?
I had heard of this about Red bull shaving paint off the body of the car as well. These are literally grams and I can't see this changing the speed of the cars due to them being weighted down by that much.
They might as well take off decals and team sponsors stickers if it is coming to that inorder taking off these miniscule amounts of weight from the chassis of the car.

^ So never bet on one of the biggest matches of the rounds then? I thought the opener was always a big deal... but this is why I still see UFC as a conflip whenever the guys don't have a bigger than 6/1 underdog.

Didn't stay up since Liverpool won, sending me quietly and peacefully to bed AFTER staying up with my kid for about another 2 hours to see the Eurovision final (Ukraine won, shocker).

Lost my bets actually, rdbase, since I went for ML and goals and handicaps hahaha so my current out-of-pocket phase extends to Champions League final. Just small change here and there, and tapped out my final spare change today... but I spare a thought for you igehhh...

Back to topic (everything's related somehow in the end!), I ended up getting 6/11. Pretty sure plenty of 9s and 10s from the others!
Yeah, never bet on the first match of the Vegas prelims. The lower odds seem to sucker most in thinking it a off one and done match for the icebreaker. But it never ends up like this.
Atleast this has happened whenever I bet on the first match. Take this as an example:


Experiment if so wish. Maybe you will have better luck than I did.

@Igehhh
Looking at your selections for this UFC you are doing better than me.
I was out by the first fight because who saw Maximov losing @1.26x odds and all in the first minute of the first round.
Forgot my first rule in betting on UFC:
Never bet on the first fight

Just see how the first couple of fights go and those should tell you how the rest of the night will go.

This methodology has worked for me with my bets in the past.

Brave because hot spurs are at home and are possibly going to have the full squad on the pitch for this match.

I couldn't really decide so I put in a betbuilder with only goals and corners with no deciding winner for this one.
This will be a proper London derby and a fight for 4th place and direct CL place. Nobody will hold anything in reserve and I expect to see a cracking match. I am toying with the idea to add some cards to betbuilder, maybe even something like Xhaka to be sent off. Should be fireworks all over the pitch and with the way how Arsenal looked in defense recently there should be goals in both nets as well.

Spot on for the red card indeed. I used to think these London derbies aren't special anymore but forgot this was Arsenal Spurs who are forever seeming to be fighting each other for Champions League. Only problem is they played with 10 men too soon but the stats show they even had many shots on goal and saves, so it seems closer than the score suggested.

Nothing left to watch for in La Liga (for me) so maybe I follow this and Italy before the boring June/July period comes.
Now that FA Cup is over, those EPL teams who were in it can fully focus on the rest of their season and where they end up on the table for the next couple of weeks.

Arsenal have two easy matches so they should get points.
Liverpool I can see ending up in second, so those who want third and fourth are still up for grabs.
But from what matches that are left, it looks like Tottenham will have the spot below LFC.

Watford and Norwich are already out of the EPL for next season, this has been revealed with the bottom spots of the table.

Well, I've been so caught up with football I missed out on my usual fav darkhorse Tsitsi taking his place in the final against high-flying Djoko. Don't see odds up yet, but don't expect anything interesting except maybe to back the loser of the first set in the final in live betting.

@Kemarit handicap and not straight sets?

This duel will be intresting but i see Djokovic winning 2-0 in straight sets against Tsitsipas. Also i think Tsitsipas is really tired because of how many sets he played against Zverev ,while Djokovic won against Ruud in straight sets pretty easily against a top 10 player

Really hard to predict how is going to win in this match, Tsitsipas has had a good game although he has to extend a lot of effort betting his opponent as compare to Djokovic who has a good line in the semis.

But I'm thinking of Tsitsipas at least winning a set against Djokovic?

Or is Djokovic really too good that it's hard to win a set against him?
Djokovic will be riding high with his 1000th career win with that match against Rudd to reach the final:
https://www.atptour.com/en/news/djokovic-ruud-rome-2022-sf
Nice cake they gave him after the match with the 1000 on the top.

Don't think he will have much trouble against Tsitsipas tomorrow cause Rudd didn't give him a long match as it was done 2-0.

Now read somewhere that Nadal might be missing Roland Garros due to an ailing foot injury from this tournament.
We will just have to wait and see closer to the start of the French Open.

Does anyone makes a bet between the match of the OG vs T1? this game is super unexpected to the player who makes a wage between the odds of the 2-0 series bet because the T1 get rekt the one of the TI champions in this event also its not quite good that they bring back ceb but with the position 5 and their offlane comes having hard communication to them imagine Mars position 3 without the Arena also T1.Kuku has a really good draft with the counter to their safe lane and offline so they cant move so much.
T1 are the favorites being the former champions so if they getting rekt early on in their campaign then the odds would be better to take.
From what I recall OG isn't doing that great in the league.
