3161  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence Jr - August 21 on: August 11, 2021, 09:26:11 PM
I'm a little bit disappointed but we have to accept that Spence cannot fight, he just follows the advice of his 3 doctors and his condition could become severe if he chooses to fight Manny Pacquiao. I think he will undergo an operation and the healing process might be long, but Spence said he will come back, so hopefully, they will still fight again in a year or two.

True, this is one of the worst injury in boxing, SRL has this, not sure if it was detected before his fight, but it was a career ending for him. I remember watching a video of his doing some exhibitions for the public, I forget the name of the other boxer or celebrity. But when he hits SRL on the eye, it suddenly turns into a serious boxing exhibitions. It's good that we have advancement as far as detecting this kind of injury, because of Spence continue to fight, maybe it will be severely damage by Pacquiao unintentionally.

It was Spence who felt it, he said, he felt something in his left eye that is not normal, so he came to the doctors to get it checked and they have the some findings. All these doctors, they can attest that Spence is telling the truth, so there's a valid reason why he withdraws the fight. Pacman on the other hand is very nice, he wish Spence a fast recovery so they'll meet someday again, who knows.

Now, only Crawford is a possible big opponent of Pacquiao, hopefully we will see this fight before he retires.

who would have thought that when Shiba was first tweeted by Elon and the price soared, my friend bought a shiba with a capital of $ 5000 and he got a big profit to be $ 24000. when I tried to follow in his step by buying a shiba, I got FOMO and lost money, I guess I was out of luck.

Here, of course, luck is needed. There are many people I know who have made good profit by buying these shiba coins. But I did not buy that coin for various reasons, which later proved to be a wrong decision for me. There are many investors who have taken big risks and succeeded, while many investors have lost their money.

We might see another FOMO now that the market seemed to be bullish again, it has not hit $50k yet but the entire market is improving. Per https://coinmarketcap.com/, the overall marketcap had already reached $2 trillion again, which means a lot of money is again invested in the market, not only on bitcoin but for altcoins as well.

Even Spence himself is disappointed because of what happen but that is what athletes can't prevent - to get an injury. Even Spence said that he will be the one to make Manny retire but it seems that it will not happen because of the retinal tear in his left eye.

Now going to his new opponent Yordenis Ugás. His professional record is 30 Wins 4 Losses and 12 of his wins coming from a way of Knockout. Comparing to Spence, Spence is a better fighter than him but lets not forget that a single punch can change the momentum of the fight. I'm not belittling Ugás because he is a Bronze Medalist in World Olympics but I think that Pacquiao can win this fight.

I hope this is still a good fight to watch If Yordenis Ugás will fight Manny toe to toe, then we will not regret for buying the PPV. I'm just curious, what would happen to the people who already bought the PPV subscription? they paid for Spence vs Manny but they'll see another boxer in the ring, maybe the PPV will cost lower than the original price now.

Dont know on whats their basis but lets take advantage for those who do love  to bet with Casimero.

I like to follow your advice but until now, I still have not seen any betting sites that are offering the betting odds of this fight, but I'm sure it will be available soon, so I have to wait maybe 1 day before the fight. For PPV, there's no local offering in our country unlike with the Spence vs Pacquiao where they also have announced the offering.

Not being Bias but SMB with all the healthy stars are showing back to their shapes, that's really a team to beat. Then here comes Magnolia with the addition of  Abueva they are also perfoming well and now residing at the top,

With that, it's now San Miguel teams dominating again the All-Filipino Conference.

Outside San Miguel, there's Meralco and TNT that I followed. With their lineup, I think they can at least a good close game at these big San Miguel teams.

Who's cheering here for teams that are not under the San Miguel Corporation?

I don't think they will again dominate, other teams have also improved and I think Ginebra and Magnolia will somehow give SMB a good challenge this conference. As per standing, Magnolia is currently dominating, followed by TNT, so it could be an unpredictable season.

The average bounty allocates the most tokens for Twitter, Facebook, Signature, Youtube and Article campaigns.
is there a bounty that allocates higher tokens to the Signature campaign?

I've been out for a while in bounty campaign, but based on what I noticed, the signature campaign has a higher allocation in most of the bounty, there are also bounties that gives a huge amount of supply to the bounty campaigns, but they are mostly a failure or scam, the high allocation is just to attract bounty hunters to promote but the project has not good quality.

I suggest, you look at the most important factor, and that is quality over quantity.
3169  Economy / Speculation / Re: will bitcoin ever go down like 2018-2020 on: August 07, 2021, 02:43:50 PM
Some of the market movements are connected to the historical past years but that doesn't mean the market will follow the same path, although I believe the market will fall before the bullish market but the lows will not be the same as the lows of the last 2018-2020 market.

2018 is certainly a year that is hard for me to forget, at that time I lost around $3400 for buying bitcoin at $14k and selling at $5800, looking at the current market trend of course I am sure that the moment 2018 will not be repeated now, I believe the end of the year can be reach at least $75k.

No one knows, if you make a wrong decision last time because you believe bitcoin will go down that's why you sold your bitcoin at a loss, you can still make the same mistake this time. What we are seeing is very bullish, but it could also be a bull trap only and bitcoin will again go back to $30k.

The thing is, bitcoin is very volatile and unpredictable, one day it will reach a new ATH but it could also correct to a very low price.

As we are still bullish, we should always learn from our past experience, and always believe that no easy money in crypto as investing here is very risky.
3170  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: (Olympics Boxing) Carlo Paalam vs Galal Yafai (Fight for Gold Medal) on: August 07, 2021, 02:24:58 PM
What a good fight. If Paalam don't knock down on round 1, I believe the decision will so crucial and close score but Yafai is so good to keep his score lead until the last round although he almost slipped on 3 round and just regain his center of gravity. Well played to both players and they deserved the medal they got.
Nas is too much for Carlo, we saw the match and both boxer is not giving up, in round 3 Nas is not fighting that much because he already knows that he will win because he was leading in Round 1 and 2 that’s why Nas is giving the round 3 to Carlo. Nevertheless, the fight was amazing and the result is indeed good Carlo is still a silver medalist, such a great young boxer from the Philippines.
We will also see Galal in the professional matches as he was planning after the Olympics, and it was good for him as he won the medal which makes him popular when entering professional boxing. Carlo Paalam at 23 years old, there's still more room for improvement, we might still see him in the next Olympics, and let's be hopeful that he will eventually get the gold medal.

I had doubts about the performance of the US team when the tournament started, but they proved the opposite with each game. By the way, Lavine made between the legs dunk in the last seconds of the fourth quarter, but it wasn't counted. Anyway, I guess that this moment became a good final point of this match.
Both teams showed respect, though France really felt disappointed as they have a chance to win the Gold, but team USA maintained their composure and they never let France led in the game when they took the lead. Good leadership by Durant and good coaching by Gregg Popovich too.
3172  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Are the bulls back? on: August 07, 2021, 12:53:49 PM
I think that the bulls are back now. Because bitcoin price will dumped upto 28K dollars. And in a new weeks, it again pumped up to 42K dollars. So,that why i judge that the bulls are back now. Bulls first dump the market and when they fills their bags with coins at cheap prices then they again pump the market and sell when the market looks bullish.
I've only seen Bitcoin at $30K when it was low not at $28K, and now it's close to $45K for a unit of Bitcoin, so generally Bitcoin is pumping again, but judging the market to be bullish I think it's still too early at this point.
It could be a bull trap or a bull run, no one knows but you can always ride with the pump and enjoy a good profit once bitcoin will start to break its current ATH. I did not see a situation like this in the past, normally it's just a bull trap, but who knows, maybe this time it could be different.
3173  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casimero vs Rigondeaux this August 14, 2021 on: August 07, 2021, 12:35:01 PM

It's hard to conclude who is the underdog in this fight because until now the odds are still not available. This fight is a championship fight, both are champions fighting for unification, so this should gain attention from the real boxing fans especially for the Filipino fans who really love boxing.

All we see are just predictions on who will win and some are telling that Casimero is the underdog but they could not provide what bookies they are using as their basis. We will come down to the last day of the fight before we see the odds, it's killing the excitement as not everyone has the time to bet a day the fight is happening, or even before the day, sometimes, we love to put an advance bet so we will just relax and watch during the fight.
3174  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Need beginner guide in gambling. on: August 07, 2021, 10:33:13 AM
You should put in mind that that's the risk of gambling. There's no assurance that you could always win and there's no specific technique or strategy to win over it. The best thing that you should do is to control and discipline yourself. Just allocate enough funds and just gamble what you could afford to lose so you wouldn't have regrets in the future.

In gambling, there is not just a risk of losing, but practically a guarantee that you will lose your money at a distance. I think this is the most important thing to understand. Knowing this fact will save a lot of time, nerves and money for any gambler who is trying to make money on gambling.

Maybe most gamblers will lose money in the long run but not everyone, otherwise, gambling is not winnable and it's opposite to my belief and to the people who are making a living in gambling. Though it's hard to prove that there are people who really makes a living in gambling, but based on what I read and see, I believe it really exist.
3175  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: August 07, 2021, 10:17:54 AM

Wiggins serves no purpose once klay comes back.  Simmons would be a much better fit.  Can co run the floor with steph, and with steph and klay they don't need Simmons jacking 3s.  Wiggins is inconsistent and needs volumes of shots to be effective on the floor.  Simmons can effect the game without shooting which is why he would be perfect

This also how I see it, once Klay return playing the center of their offense is again for the splash bro but they need to have defenders who can run and that's how Simmons will work, he might not a good offensive shooter but with an open floor in front of him he can surely make a damage he's still young his legs still fresh to run together with Green, Iggy, Klay and Steph.

Waiting for that trade to happened, I don't see wiggins as a good addition to GSW, my opinion though.  Roll Eyes Grin

Same here, Wiggins been in different teams already but he was not that so effective, so we are hopeful that with the addition of Ben Simmons, things will change for the better. I miss the old warrior, if only Thompson was their to play, they could be a championship contender team with a healthy Curry as well of course.

He has his best production with the Timberwolves, but that team is a struggling team so there's no chance he can play in the playoffs.
https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/w/wiggian01.html

Compard to Simmons, I think Simmons is more of an all-around player as this guy could get a triple-double but a guaranteed double-double in every game. His rebounding and assist is also impressive, that's the reason why Warriors are interested in acquiring him.
3176  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: (Olympics Boxing) Carlo Paalam vs Galal Yafai (Fight for Gold Medal) on: August 07, 2021, 09:33:04 AM
I think the government by now should know what sports disciple to develop moving forward to the next Olympics.
Yeah, I agree on this. Instead of giving pledges to the Olympics winner why not increase the allocated budget for atlethes and construct different sports facilities for atlethes training so that they can flourish there skills properly. Philippines is good on boxing, weightlifting and other power sports because Filipino has natural talent on it. I hope the next President will gonna do it considering how impressive the performance of there atlethes.

I believe this thread is already concluded and need to be lock.


Okay, I will lock it but will give 24 hours to hear other posters opinion.

Before that, allow me to say my congratulations to Carlo Paalam though he loses in the gold medal match.
I'm a bit disappointed too as I lose my bet, but at the same time, I feel happy because he brings honor to our country.

until next time, with the remaining athletes in the Olympics, I don't expect they'll bring a medal.

3177  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casimero vs Rigondeaux this August 14, 2021 on: August 06, 2021, 09:48:07 PM
Only 1 week now before the date of the fight, as of today, there's still not sportsbook that offers the betting odds of the fight.

I think our patience will be tested here as I'm sure just like me, you are also eager to put your bet, but we can't do anything since we don't control the bookies and it seems this fight is not so popular resulting in a lack of bettors interest.

I'm waiting for the odds as well, and I want to see the odds that were shared days before to be displayed in the bookies. That odds were good, Casimero was the underdog with +200 and I think anyone who supports the Filipino fighter will be happy to bet in this fight.

I'll definitely be on the side of the many Filipinos who are willing to support our very own, seeing our fighter as an underdog will only make us more eager to bet, and just like Manny Pacman who is also an underdog, I would not hesitate to take a bet using my gambling budget.

There's no much talk about this fight, though it's a championship fight it seems like people are not much interested in it, but we are.
Anyway, I wish everyone luck, and hopefully, we will win together.
3178  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tokyo 2020 Men's Olympics Basketball Tournament on: August 06, 2021, 09:14:16 PM
I heard on the radio this morning that my local Book Maker has the United States as a 12 point favorite over France this evening.  I know that France has already beat the United States but I don't think that there is any chance that they end up beating them again.  I think Kevin Durant is as motivated as he's ever been to be honest, as he knows all the glory has been going to him and will help cement is legacy if he brings home the gold.  Cant wait!
It looks like all bookmakers consider the USA favorites in the upcoming match. I also think that they will win, but France was able to win the current roster of the USA in the first game. So we can expect that it will be a close game, and the USA might be able to win only by 5-10 points. At least it won't surprise me.
USA is still the defending Olympic champion so the bets will be in favor to them but since France beat them, there’s still a higher chance that France will win again this time. Though the momentum is good with USA because after that defeat, they was able to win all their remaining games and was able to reach the final again. This will be an exciting match, and hopefully USA can work as a team and win against France.

How the France momentum, I think they have no lose a single game yet, so it's really a big threat for the USA although some people may still get hype by the performance of the USA and we cannot take that from them. The odds are really attractive for France, anyone who thinks of risking the ML, now is a good time.
3179  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: August 06, 2021, 09:04:25 PM
so they need the service specialty of Simmon which is the defense and I'm sure the Warriors will develop him to be one of the elite NBA players.

They need Simmons to be in the playoffs, but if Simons will choke as he did with the last playoffs, then I think the Warriors will regret acquiring him for one of their best players. However, I'm optimistic too that the Warriors management will not make a bad decision, Simmons is still young, they can still develop him to be a better player and play with the GSW culture effectively.

Latest update on the PBA's return, we might see them at Clark Pampanga again.

BATANGAS won’t be able to host the PBA Philippine Cup.

On Friday, the Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) gave the league the go signal to resume its games in provinces which are only under a regular General Community Quarantine (GCQ) or a modified GCQ.

Too bad, Batangas has just been placed under GCQ (General Community Quarantine) with heightened restrictions starting Friday.

No venue for Batangas, I think this is the final venue and I hope they'll prepare it soon so they can resume.

They are back to their old location, well, this is a guaranteed success as they made a successful season during their first bubble, and that was a full bubble because there's no vaccine at that time. I'm glad the PBA had quickly decided, they don't really want to cancel this season.
