I avoid betting on friendly matches, but still the fact that any team can beat any team can be assessed not only as a disadvantage, but also as an advantage, when the underdog wins the odds are usually high.
Exactly! I become so skeptical when it comes tonplacing a bet on friendlies that actual league games or competitions. They both come with a completely different vibe and energy. You can't exactly tell which team is bound to emerge victorious even with a pairing of an unequal strength as per quality of players and the league from which the team hails from.
I rarely bet on frienndlies too, especially when it comes to the win market. The goal market has been to some extent more favourable to me. One way that i actually use to make my predictions is, by looking at the teams line ups. Seeing many of the first team players on the bench especially those handling key roles simply means, there isn't anything serious in the fixture and vice versa.

Hard to predict unlike with real games where all the stats are important, with friendly games those good players even they are in the game can just run and enjoy without any pressures.

They are just competing with time and not really with the opponents that they are playing with, and same logic applies when betting.

Make sure to bet for fun and not to chased whoever be the winner Grin Roll Eyes it will lessen the stress if you lose your pick.

Most of you are concern about the favorite team not playing their best, if that's what you see then it's not hard to predict the winner of the game. What really happened here is that we are a sure bettor on the favorites, so we think they will win and we are disappointed if they will not play their best. In gambling, betting with your heart would never result to profit, always look for an opportunity or the value to win in every bet.

It looks like Spain is not lucky, considering that they will play against the USA in the quarter-finals. Regarding other teams, I guess France and Slovenia might be playing against each other in 1/2 finals. So the USA vs Slovenia match in the final is quite likely.
Yeah unliky for spain they will face usa which after the loss against france i dont think they will repeat that mistake again plus that was the first game they lose in their last three olympics so i think the only capable team to beat them are slovenia.

Upsets do happen in Olympics as well, the fact that USA can be beaten by a lower ranking than Spain, I think Spain here also has a chance to upset the USA. Spain is currently +12.5 and +540 on ML in my sports bookie, I guess we will see lots of bettors here backing Spain.

^Let's be honest guys, we are going to see some more veterans signing cheap contracts with both Nets and Lakers at the same time.
Because that's the only way they will become a champion after seasons of playing, Lakers and Nets are the favorites because they have the top players in the NBA now and they are really good, if not because of injury, we might have seen them in the NBA Finals last season. Good example is David West, he was a starter on his team, played great but never won a championship, however he decided to play with the GSW which was the best teams in 2017 and 2018 season and won a championship.
3144  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Long Term Investment Suggestion on: August 01, 2021, 01:48:03 PM
I am not sure the coin will bring profit if we invest long term, it is better to choose another coin that already has potential and will certainly bring profit that is ethreum, BNB, and some other top coins, but this all depends on our own beliefs because not all of our predictions will bring the truth because we only see the development of a coin.
I agree bitcoin, ethereum, and BNB are the best currencies for long term investment even if other coins are lost from the market there is no chance of losing these coins and the risk is much less. Traders like it and it is profitable to keep it for a long time even if the price goes down.
I prefer following your suggestion to invest in bitcoin, ethereum and BNB besides the other coins because those coins will have more potential to increase back. Maybe he can invest in the other coins, but he does not have to use too big money because that will be risky if you buy the wrong coins.

But if he has the skills to trade, it will be better to trade bitcoin, ethereum or BNB because the movements of those coins are better than the other coins. So he can have a chance to make a profit daily or weekly.
Well, for me, I spread my capital to different coins, 50% for Bitcoin alone while the other 50% are for 2-3 altcoins. I'm not just looking and focus on the top listed coins like ETH and BNB, I also eyeing the top 10-20 altcoins. They are some good projects on there but as we usually did, research is very important and it needs is a perfect timing or at least near to possible.
But for now, it wasn't looking good to start buying altcoins this time. Almost all altcoins in the pump, we have to wait until the hypes are over which is the position to start.
3145  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: It feel good to see Bitcoin going well on: August 01, 2021, 01:19:50 PM
Some month ago so many people would think Bitcoin will crash , many felt as if  the price will even fall more than it use to be. People were even scared to trade  because they were not sure of the market, but they never knew when it was low that was even the best time to trade . I'm glad to see where the price of Bitcoin have reached presentky, it will be an advantage and good experience to those who took the risk of going into trading and it will also give some others knowledge that fall of Bitcoin is not permanent , definitely it will come up. With this experience have showed that Bitcoin is here to stay, do not panic, trade and make earning

You are right, BTC was able to show once again right now that it can surprise its holders. Of course, it is very difficult to be a holder of BTC and see its price go down very sharply, this is what makes many BTC holders sell. But as we've already seen, only real BTC holders can wait and win in the end. I believe that if you decide to invest in BTC, then you need to go all the way and wait until the BTC price reaches its peak, and only in this way you can get the maximum profit.
And then you'll say that short-term holders are not real investors?
I don't mind if they are real investors or not because selling or holding is not the basis to determine if you are a holder or not. What I mean is that selling is an option for everyone. Some do selling when it shows some pumps while the others keep holding until it hits its peak, honestly they have some reason of their actions and never assume that all who can hold longer will be the real investors as there is a so-called short-term and long-term holder.

It's not the first time I remember a similar story from Coinbase where the change in price was so vast.



I do not know if everyone affected by this matter will be compensated, but you can contact the support team and they will give you accurate answers.
CZ had already explained it on social media. That is actually weird, if it is either CZ is telling the truth or not at least we found something that we need to be aware of the situation and must act safely in order not to get surprised about their next actions.
Well, I'm still going to trust Binance but this time, I have to limit my funds on them and not even stay there longer to avoid any unnecessary things like what happened to the other exchanges. It is better to make it safe rather than regret it later.

Why is Bitcoin worth so much? Huh
You don't need to get angry about why Bitcoin has been valued so much. If you could analyze carefully, Bitcoin had places some importance in the market today. If you could see that Bitcoin has been made to use as a currency and people are satisfied enough to use it again and again. If only that all countries are supporting Bitcoin, we can absolutely be seeing that its market demand will be high and the price is shooting up high as well, maybe we are about to reach more than $100k.

Westbrook was not actually in the priority list of the lakers according to https://www.silverscreenandroll.com/2021/7/29/22601297/russell-westbrook-plan-b-lakers-trade-rumors-offseason-free-agency-buddy-hield-chris-paul

However, this happens already, the trade is official and I think fans are happy with this.
Finally, Westbrook find a championship team and by paper, this is the best team so far he played.

Having James and Davis who had won a championship, I think Westbrook will be more confident in playing and that will make the Lakers a very dangerous to face this coming new season.
3149  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Looking for ICO 2021 on: July 31, 2021, 01:54:12 PM
The year 2021 has witness so many changes and introduction of new development in the cryptocurrency market such as NFT projects, that made me wanting to know if ICO projects are still available, I mean good ICO project that can give 2X profits just like what we hard back in the ICO era of 2017.

I will appreciate if I can see a list of excellent projects running they ICO at the moment you comments are highly welcome.
To tell you honestly, there is no good at these ICO's nowadays. Please don't waste your time chasing at them as you couldn't find any good ICO in which could fill your expectations as they are done already (last 2017), the next ICO projects are worthless.
Instead of spending your time looking at a promising ICO, it was best if you go directly to the known projects that already have a working product. You are thinking about x2 profit, well, that possible it becomes more than x2.
3150  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The Beauty Of Real Trading on: July 30, 2021, 11:31:52 PM
I think that's the problem with people, forgetting the actual goal that you have created and the idea of short-sightedness and thinking that it's the only way that you think that you are in profit. The best thing to do is do your actual trading plan and follow it meticulously. If you want to take advantage of the 24 hour market of crypto, you can take a look at Gunbot and use it as an additional trading tool.
It was because they simply think that trading is a tool to make them rich instantly. Mostly they got fooled by many ads to appear showing how easy it is to make money in trading. And that they will found it hard when they are in actual trading.
The moment we start trading, it was also the moment we know how difficult it was. This was to feel what is real trading is all about and from that, they will tell themselves that they are wrong underestimating it at the start.
3151  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Always take profit on: July 30, 2021, 11:06:18 PM
Have you considered taking profits of $1-3$ repeatedly throughout a trading session it might sound small for professional traders but it would go along way in growing an account most especially for beginners.
I don't know how much the capital is, but to be honest $1-3$ is a too small profit. In my opinion, at least you can earn above $10$ for a single coin you trade daily. Usually, I use about $50 - $200 for daily capital buying 1 crypto coin. If my target is only $1-3$, it seems just wasting my time a day. Our efforts in trading should be appreciated better, below $5 seems very unworthy.


For the expert, it was so easy I think but for the newbies, I can tell it is surely difficult for them or even to lose more rather than making a profit. Making $1-$3 is not really satisfying for me, wanting more is our target, and tend to make ourselves greedy but it finds to be natural since we all have a dream. Spending 10 hours a day in trading for example and then just get $3, not just a waste of time but it sounds like we are not good at trading and we need to find a way to improve.
3152  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Binance squeezes users on verification on: July 29, 2021, 11:48:29 PM
This was coming as crypto continues to become popular and knowing it works without boarders it was always going to be pressured to have some kind of regulations. We all know how much bitcoin has been named to be a currency for criminals and all other illegal activities but soon or cexs will have this and the crypto anonymous feature will be taken away from us.

KYC will give us an option neither we submit it or to decline using an exchanger but to go along with the P2P transactions(where I found risky rather than having KYC). If Binance will having this move, might be possible that the rest will follow as well. It looks like we are closely losing our anonymity in the market and for sure this has come to an end. I think we are closely moving similar to the banking system where we have to send and give our personal information.

Quote
And these adjustments by Binance will make it lose customers in the short term but with time it will grow again.
Well, that is what we take a look at after implementing this rule. But for sure many people, traders and investors will still use Binance as they are one of the trusted exchanges in the crypto space.
3153  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cryptocurrencies price and their effect on gambling industry on: July 29, 2021, 03:30:33 PM
I can only speak for myself. Actually if I could only turn back time, I think I wouldn't have used my precious Bitcoin or even Ethereum and other major altcoins for gambling. Those crypto amounts I had squandered on gambling used to be small amounts. But now, they are already worth a fortune to me. Having said this, I think the fast rise of crypto prices could somehow discourage some gamblers from spending their crypto. However, with the features unique to crypto, other gamblers might still stick to it.

Well, we have to learn from our mistakes, and for me, though crypto is really profitable we should not deprive ourselves of gambling as it's still fun to use crypto in gambling, just learn how to invest and gamble at the same, you should still be profitable from investing and be entertain in gambling at the same time.
3154  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence Jr - August 21 on: July 29, 2021, 02:55:23 PM

Me too, I will not vote for as politician but I will support him as a Pro Boxer because he is the pride of our country. I'm replying on the quote statement above that many Filipino will pray for him that he will lose on the match. This is such disgusting considering MP achievement and works for the Philippines.

Let us set aside politics, for now, the fight schedule is new, I guess it's just right to show our support by not talking about politics, we support him to win, and let that politics talk start after this fight. Manny is the pride of our country, his success is also our success.
I think you are correct, the topic is manny pacquiao vs Errol spence in a boxing contest, and not Manny pacquiao political campaign, am not from the Philippines, and I know about politics news aren't accurate, you have to be there to know how the political leaders there are governing them, so it may be regional if the topic is about Manny pacquiao as a politician, but as an athlete and a professional boxer he is one of the greatest in his division and am excited to see him back in the ring again.

In the Welterweight division, only 3 champions are popular, that's Manny Pacquiao, Errol Spence Jr., and Terence Crawford, so whoever wins this fight, could fight Terence Crawford and if he still does not accept the challenge, then we will not see competitive boxing again in this division.

For the last years, I think this one is the biggest in this division as every time Manny Pacquiao fights, everyone is so interested to see it.
3155  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The market situation is deteriorating day by day.. on: July 29, 2021, 02:31:07 PM
When the market is in decline then all investors feel worried both large and small investors, ...

And then you are wrong...
Not all investors will be worried when there is a decline, but this is mostly happening to newcomers due to their level of market understanding. In fact, these old investors will seem to be happy when seeing a situation like this as they have a chance to buy more coins, a huge difference from what you're thinking. Because if even all investors will behaving that way, I see no future for crypto but instead to seeing this market collapse.
3156  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Safety on: July 28, 2021, 02:11:59 PM
indeed no one can do 100% security in the internet and online world, because security is in ourselves, don't easily believe scammers who pretend to be good, and don't easily believe in giveaways that promise profits, and never give your wallet to anyone, even to your own close friends.
To be safe, just reserve your trust on people that you personally know. It should be a mandatory that you should be smart about your safety online, I mean who wants to be a victim or get scammed right?
You only just securing yourself from not getting harm physically from other people but not online. Honestly, they don't give you the security you wanted because even them (your trusted friends), you can't assure that they never bite you back and scam you in the future. It was best and smarter if you just keep your keys secretly, never tell your trusted friends unless if it is needed whene you can't manage to do it anymore.
3157  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading is not a Game . on: July 27, 2021, 11:37:20 PM
The only way to avoid treating trading like a game is to know and be versed in some basic trade ideologies and study fully for the knowledge you need to be a good trader. After this you will see things differently and your approach will be different.
Some people think it was just like gambling because the result of our trades is either a loss or profit, like a game either to lose or win. And something like they gamble money for no assurance that we can get money from trading. That is their appreciation for trading but it was not a big deal, yes, they can call it.
But for those who have been in trading for a very long time, they certainly can tell that it was different. It can be of a different approach and most of all it has a different strategy and it is even riskier as we can't predict what will happen in the market later unlike gambling where we just based on luck.
3158  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Signals in crypto on: July 26, 2021, 09:24:34 PM
As I can say no one really knows about the coins that at which time it will go high and at which time it will be down, but there are some groups and some people which tell and predict about studying the coins and at a certain percentage they are right.
Perhaps, choosing those potential coins like Bitcoin and the leading altcoins will somewhat give you a higher chance to double your money or even more. But if you just rely on the signal groups because of their colorful and promising words, it was likely you are making a donation to them willingly.

That is why it was more advantageous to familiarize the market and I urge newcomers to do that before deciding to make an investment in crypto. Because one reason why many had fallen and get fooled by these signal groups was due to lack of knowledge.
Because a beginner will usually only choose the fast lane so that it makes a way out to join the signal group, I think that at the beginning it will give good advice, but in the future we don't know it can even become a trap by scaring you into buying the right coins. not full potential, I'm still not sure in certain groups so it's better to learn to seek experience than just being managed by a group of people and not proving maximum results.
Knowledge is vast so I think it's more about looking for advice on which one do you think is best.
Signal groups make me sick, I actually don't trust them, never in my life do I ask them.
That certainly happens to newbies is they believe that they can make shortcuts to easily make money in crypto. This is what I also think before.
Well, signal groups are there to pretend to help and promised us but in the end, they are the ones who make money and leave us. I believe they are more greedy than these newbies.
3159  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Most profitable cryptocurrency for 2021? on: July 26, 2021, 03:38:48 PM
I made the most profit this season on BNB and ETH coins. but it's all over. profit has been obtained and now have to make a new plan.
a few weeks ago, I bought TKO and SFP. an exchange platform that has a partnership with binance. I'm sure this will be good for the future. now I am also still looking for some coins before I will finally get BNB and ETH after correction back.
It gives us some advantage when we are using and trading coins that are on the known exchanges like Binance. I used to buy also BNB and some not known altcoins like ICP and DEXE, but I'd never think this for long-term investment but only for a short-term deal. As I look and observe the market behavior this time, hypes are still there and I've found out that once Bitcoin is on the surge, the altcoins are also behaving the same. If we can manage to go along with the trend and buy altcoins during the dump, even though it was new coins we can really have some decent returns once it bounces back high again.
3160  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Inoue vs Donaire II discussion on: July 26, 2021, 03:04:24 PM
Both camps are still silent. So we have no idea if this Inoue-Donaire II will materialize soon. In case, Casimero wins over Rigo, I believe Inoue-Casimero will happen much early. Maybe they are still weighing their options here. Let us see once the bout of Casimero-Rigo is finished.

I'm thinking the other way. If Casimero will win against Rigo, there might be another negotiation between him and Donaire's camp.

Inoue also might not accept the offer and instead will ask Casimero's camp to fight Inoue first or maybe he directly match with Donaire and ignore Casimero.

On that issue where the fight was cancelled between Donaire and Casimero, Inoue sided with Donaire so I doubt that he will just accept Casimero's challenge unless it will be a unification match.

It would be easier for Inoue if he will just wait, let the Casimero vs Donaire fight happen, and whoever wins will fight him. For me, I like that scenario to happen, but if Donaire will not change his mind, Inoue might be forced to fight the two boxers, probably Inoue vs Donaire is the first, then if Inoue will win, we will see a big unification fight between Inoue and Casimero.
