This is also good for the other aspiring new PBA players, if someone like Kiefer will come out and will take offers abroad, this will open opportunity for the other players that are waiting to be drafted. For me, the only downside here is the quality of PBA will decline because the best players are getting good offers abroad and for the sake of money they'll grab it. Let's take it for example, JMF, if he gets an equivalent of at least 1 million pesos monthly salary playing abroad, I think he will grab it if he choose money over the love of the league, these are just possibilities so it could happen. Good point mate. PBA will be drained of high-quality players if this situation won't be addressed. We just know for sure what's the agreement between Keifer and that Japan team on the number of years/months that he will play for them but if it's long-term then I think some players would follow Keifer. But on the bright side, I think it could also open opportunities to some players to play in the PBA to fill the spot left by players leaving. Let's see how the commissioner's office would react to this situation. The only way to address this is to increase the salary of the PBA players especially the superstars. At the end of the day, it's just like an "employer/employee" relationship and if an employee is looking for a greener pasture, the employer can't stop him for trying to improve his lifer for a better opportunity. This also tells us that the brand of basketball in the Philippines have already grown, we are now a world class. |

If you can manage profits from bull run then don't think about bear market.
And even the bear market comes, if you're able to make money from it and trade as usual. You don't have to think about it. What others are worried for is that the balance and value of their portfolio goes down. It's irritating to see the balance you've got starts to drop due to bear market. For day traders and short term traders, all they need is just a market volatility so they have a chance to trade. However, for long term traders which is compose by the vast majority, that's when they have to be cautious as anytime the price will start to correct and dump could be massive. Bitcoin could crash like we have witnessed in the past but eventually it will rise, what we have to master is to control our emotion and trust bitcoin above any other crypto coins as the king will always stay in the top whatever market situation we will experience. |

@Finestream, this is the biggest news by far, PBA is ensuring that vaccine are available to the PBA players and staff before they will open the new season. It will be a month from now and we will see it opened with some big changes on team's line up for some teams.
Thanks for this update, I'm also happy to know that finally the fear and doubt is now gone.
Since MVP does not only own a big teams in the PBA, i think @bisdak is correct that SMC group would also do the same.

I’m less concerned with who wins the all star game than I am with seeing some great plays. I’d like to see LeBron/Steph do something special and a great dunk contest. Doing it at halftime of the all star game should keep things moving and entertaining. Looking forward to it!
I do love to see the moves that those participants or players would able to make because team up like this do only happen once which means possible good moves and executions can really be seen. Im not really minding much on who's gonna win as long i do get the entertainment i do seek. All star is just all about entertainment, less or no defense at all so they can make exhibition shots to entertain the crowd, but for me I still cheer in a certain team and I think Leonard will get a chance to win an all star MVP if Team Lebron will lose. Also, this is a high scoring game because of the lack of defense and fans love a high scoring game. |

My Sportsbet Account has been restored and out of a very great gesture from the team I was reimbursed for everything that was stolen from my account  That means I'm back with my BetBuilder and Singles, That said for the NBA all stars game I've gone with Over 317.5 points in Team Lebron vs Team Durant, but I can't find anywhere on the platform to bet on other Contests. I want go for Jaylen Brown @8.4 for 3 points challenge and Luka Doncic for Skills Challenge Happy to hear that @Harkorede, I don't know that your account was compromise, hopefully it will not happen again. On the 3 points challenge, I like your bet because Jaylen Brown is a great 3 point shooting as well, not as good as Curry but with 8.4 odds, I think it's worth to gamble. |

The competition is nice, but I think I would not enter here as I believe there's a lot of great sports bettors who will participate. I'll just watch the show who will win, this is a one month event right, I think I'll just enjoy myself watching the shared bets, maybe follow it sometimes, whoever is hot in this competition. I'm checking in and out but no intention to participate, but please allow me to say my Good luck to you all. voted for "The Maharaja of Bitcointalk" anyway, it's unique and I understand it.  |

Lol, it looks like the rumors are true. Sorry, TnT. Ray Parks' number cannot be reached at this time May Parks is too spoiled, he might have loss his interest playing in the PBA as he believe he can play with other leagues. he cannot be contacted, that means he is not being professional, and he doesn't deserve to be in the business. Give that spot to a more deserving player, many players are dying to play in the PBA. |

I have my personal bet about who will be the MVP for the all-star-game. I think we will see an amazing Luka Doncic and he will be selected as the MVP. Luka Doncic for the Lebron Team side but I bet on Joel Embiid for the Kevin Durant side. Joel Embiid is doing his best NBA season so far so he probably will be on fire looking for the MVP tittle  What are your thoughts or bets? Enjoy Luka Doncic @13.. that's a good odds, and on other team it's Embiid with 7.16... If you bet on both players and either of them won, you are sure at a profit so I guess it's worth the risk, and this is all star, what matters is you enjoy the most and let's have a break for a while. |

although the houses obviously close any account that looks suspicious.
Please explain more about this, like for what instance? Do you guys know any of these services?
Your friend probably talking about sports betting broker, it's existing but I don't think they will let themselves abuse by arbitrage betting as in the first place they are operating to be profitable and they definitely know what they are doing. |

First of all, crashed did not happen in 2017, it happened in 2018.
About a book, there's no book that would exactly predict the future and would tell you what to do to be safe and be profitable.
All the books you can read are just based on the personal opinion of the writer because we as a trader are living in a speculative market.
The only thing I can suggest is just buy at dip and sell at peak, this strategy works all the time.
No need for book/s!

Binance has proven to be a major runner to Ethereum, no doubt Binance is huge and actually making a difference. Binance also has the potentials to do so well in terms of upward price action due to both technical and fundamental indications. But I cannot clearly tell if Binance is the next Ethereum.
Just imagine, there's no major development for Ethereum network, people are still complaining about the high fees, but look at their standing, they are still at the number 2 next to bitcoin and I think they'll stay that spot and might increase its marketcap once major update such as ETH 2.0 will be fully implemented. Binance has took the spotlight this year as it rose to top 3 but slowly sliding and now back to top 5, so what I'm saying is we definitely have to look at the consistency and it seems like BNB is not that consistent yet. |

Cashout is a useful feature only if you know when to use it and when not to use it, cashing out bets which you eventually win and not cashing out the ones you lose is a dreadful scenario and it happens with many gamblers. There is a small fees/edge when cashing bets, so don't cash it if the bet is about to be won.
About to be won can still lose especially if the game is close, and also, no gambler would cash out at a lower value of the actual potential win if the bet is likely to win, like 90% chances. The cash out feature is indeed useful because it's a way to secure a win and to minimize the loses but I stop using it as it's more fun to stay at the normal way of gambling which is a win or lose situation only. |

I hope TNT can still win games and will get into the Finals. Ray Parks announced that he will not play in the upcoming season. TNT Tropang Giga’s Bobby Ray Parks not seeing action this season
“It is with a heavy heart that I will have to excuse myself and not partake in this year’s PBA season due to personal reasons which in particular, my family,” wrote Parks. I think with his absence, TNT will have a better ball movement and Poguy will get more touch especially in the 3 point shooting. How about you, what are your thoughts, is TNT better without Ray Parks or not? That's also what I'm thinking when Parks got injured during the PBA bubble and I'm somehow correct in my speculation, Pogoy and Castro's touch of the ball increased, and though they lost the series their chemistry is back. Manny Pangilinan, in his social media post, is very upset about this Parks leave on the PBA and it seems that he might do might something that might affect the cager's future. This kind of attitude will not bring you a good future in the PBA, he might be boycotted by team owners. I saw the post also and it doesn't look good for Ray Parks, and there are speculation that maybe this guy wants to get traded to any SMC teams. Hopefully he can still come back or still play in a good team but if his excuse is not substantial enough to justify his leave, then I think it would really affect his career as attitude matters in sports, and maybe if he is found out lying, he can be sanction by the league. |

I'm one of the people who believe that Nets can make it this season with KD-Harden-Irving trio. They have no NBA championship in their history and they can finally succeed in this after many many years.
All of them have championship experience individually. well for Harden it's just a WCF but it's a western conference championship.  Their playoff performance will be very important. If they play like now at least, they have a big chance for it. Because they even manage to defeat their competitors in the absence of KD.
As long as they get a home court advantage in a series, I think that would be good enough for them to at last pass the firs round. No team at the moment in the East can beat the Nets, that's my personal opinion though but it could change depending on how Nets will play in the long run. Playoff is different ball game, most likely the team with more experience has greater chances. Just look at the Bucks previously. The became the number one seed but was upset. The good thing with Nets is that they are very talented team and they have the experience with Durant and Irving to push the team. playoffs sometimes upset the top seed, what happens to bucks your correct less experience in the playoffs but remember they Toronto got Leonard, who is a really good defender, and bucks performance is less like the regular season I think they have pushed too much in the regular season that they loss energy and momentum to the playoffs not that they have no experience, IMO we can't compare buck against a real team like the Nets, Bucks are just hype because they have Giannis as the back to back MVP of the league, but Nets have the experience, I mean the big 3 has the experience and they can beat any team in the NBA now, so I don't think they get upset in the playoffs. I'm not saying it's impossible though but it's not likely to happen. |

The day I had been waiting for has come and i sold my ame tokens after a long wait. I got profit from this token. I know many of the people sell their tokens an get benefit. One thing i must say that AME is good tokens behind this team is working v hard for the project and Project have some potential thats why price not dumps as we expect that After listing price go down to 0.005 but results are totally different .
I'm also lucky to have been HODL AME for a while and sold it last week... I followed the AME article campaign and got around 11 thousand AME. Initially, when Bithumb Sudha opened an AME deposit I wanted to sell it immediately but I thought the price was still low and I decided to HODL longer and profitably which I did right, the AME price went up and I got a big profit. Congratulations to you mate, this tells that with patience you can make more and it's not true that there's no money anymore in bounty campaign because you sold your earnings at a good price. AME has a little decline lately, it's currently traded at a price of 0.08 usd, I think it's still a good price but those who still hold until now, I can say they really trust the project. |

Now they're saying Blake Griffin is the next suspect to go to the Nets... Hard to believe how fast Griffin fell from being the franchise player in LA to being bought out in Detroit. Granted his athleticism seems to be gone (he's only dunked once this year last time I checked) he is still a decent shooter and a good presence on the floor. He's a good insurance policy if one of the big 3 for the Nets gets injured, as he would make a decent fill in. I could also see him adding a lot of punch to their bench. The Lakers are going to have to make a move soon. They need to get their hands on Drummond if they want to secure another ring without too much heroics. https://www.netsdaily.com/2021/3/5/22315692/hello-brooklyn-nets-likely-landing-spot-for-blake-griffin-after-pistons-buyoutThis will make Nets more better, Griffin can still play, he got used to playing a good team but when he was traded (IIRC), things have change for him. I beet he has some issue with his current team and even himself, hopefully he will be surrounded with positive people that the very goal is to win and I think Nets does have that kind of goal and people. I'm looking forward for this news. |

I guess everyone of us here will go the over, it's almost an automatic bet in the all star as we know they really don't put a defense in this game and I'm assuming that this all star game has less crowd or no crowd, so there's less pressure on them as there are less fans cheering unlike the usual scenario.
For the 3 point shooting, Curry is still the favorites with 2.99 odds but I'm surprise Buddy Hield is not in the list.
For MVP, how about Donovan Mitchell @35 (odds)?

, until he caught Whyte with that devastating uppercut,
As I said before , Whyte should bet on his speed and wear out his opponent in the first six rounds. Povetkin's legs are weak to keep him well during the all time of fighting. That cannot be said about his punch which may be devastating at every moment. Whyte has to circle around Povetkin and make disorienting blows. P.S., took note on March 27 They keep moving the fight because both fighters might not have enough strategies to beat their respective opponents. Now that he has a lot of time to get ready, I think Povetkin has already found a way to close this fight as soon as possible or if he failed he will be the one to kiss the floor. With Whyte's current condition, I think he can go as far as 12th round toe-to-toe with his opponent. This would be a wild fight with a higher chance to end in an early-round depends on what kind of strategies both fighters are practising right now. Moving the fight is understandable as we are in a pandemic, but let's say that the fight will happen in March 27, I think the underdog here which is Povetkin has a huge chance of winning as he already beat Whyte in their first fight, that's why this rematch is created. Honestly, I'm not seeing it like a Ruiz vs Joshua scenario, it's just that Povetkin is underrated and some people are still not convince on his win. |

This trade is probably the biggest news so far.
They really waited for Slaughter to come back just to trade him, I think Slaughter is not anymore surprise with this as just like what the rumors said, this is the reason why he left the BGSM in the past and now maybe have realized that he has no future outside the Philippines, come back and accept his destiny. It's gonna be the first time I will see Slaughter will be playing with other team, I hope he will become an asset more than when he was still with the Ginebra.
