The playoffs are crazy time in the NFL and no matter how much research you do and think you know of the teams before they play, it won't really matter.
Because anyone can win on any given day.
They made a movie about american football with a similar name.

Just to update here, Senegal won their 2nd match, so I got my second freebet today. It was for Blackjack again and instead of putting all 0.2mbtc on 1 hand, I decided to split it on main hand and on dealer bust.
After seeing Cape Verde get a red card mid way through the first half it already felt like a win but at the same time I don't like how they're taking so long to score though.  Grin

For my second free chips I got 0.3 mbtc winning 3/4 rounds after playing the 0.2mbtc free chip not bad considering I lost most of my rounds on the first free chip.

As long as Senegal wins the next one I might break even because win or lose means they still have another match for the third place decider worst case scenario they lose both but I hope they won't.
Those red cards in the Cape Verde match were early enough for Senegal to capitalize on in the match but they didn't.
With the likes of Mendy, Mane, Sarr and Mendy you would think they were alot of goals to come from this team but before this game they only scored one and it was a late goal from a penalty in their last match.
The Cape Verde side were playing with 9 men having those two red cards in the first half and early into the second (21'&57' mark) up until Mane scored at the 63' minute then went off due to a head injury with the goalkeeper.
So with only 3 goals in the tournament is a pretty poor performance as many from the AFCON coverage would agree. Yet they are favorites to go on to the semis in February.
Next matches are on Saturday with Gambia vs Cameroon and Burkina Faso vs Tunisia.

Congrats to you and buwaytress on the wins in blackjack from your free chips/free bets.

AFCON has a few more matches happening as Senegal are preparing to take the field and then Morocco later on today.
There was a special for over 1.5 goals and them to win at a pretty good price. So I took it.

@rdbase. Agreed. It was very unlucky for the Bills to lose because of a flip of a coin before overtime. I am not a fan, however, I am a fan of Josh Allen. It is another year that he was stopped by Mahomes in the playoff.

It also appears the results of the post season has created a clear road for the Chiefs to win the superbowl. The Bengals in the conference final and either the 49ers or the Rams for the superbowl. Let us be together to side with the Bengals and either the 49ers or the Rams in the hext games hehehehe.

In a coin flip do you ever pick tails? Most people would chose heads. But the bills did, so they lost. Would of liked to see what the bill could do with another possession but those are the rules in OT.

So here we have it. The final two matches to make up the teams to go on to the Super Bowl next month.
Check out the odds and you decide which team you will back to make it through:

Even won a small outlay on this to go all the way, which it certainly did. My money had always been flagging on for Gane, but his odds kept improving, so the value for me did not, ended up pocketing some decent change on Ngannou, instead of withdrawing I now more than doubled that change (yay).
Doubling up is a good thing in the UFC cause the matches can not last more than 25 minutes when it comes to 5 rounder like the Gane vs Ngannou one did, so your good there.
I had Francis at 2.29 but it did reach all the way up to 2.32 so those who got him at this price were laughing after the third round where he was just dominating Cyril and rode on to a win after that.

Called the right winners.
Only got the method of KO for Ngannou's win incorrect. Should have been decision.
Hope everyone did well if they placed bets on UFC 270.
Don't think anyone got the way the main event was going to end(to go the distance) except for buwaytress. Cheesy
I would imagine it was at around 3.60x. Well that is from what I recall it being to one point in the day.

That was the most dramatic match ever in a playoffs ever seen according to the announcer and he has been doing matches for some decades now.
Bills Allen and Mahomes were trading touchdowns in the last 2 minutes of the game where they scored 25 points and Davis had a record setting 4 touchdowns for Buffalo but still lost the match.
And the only home side and favorite to win this weekend in the divisionals.
Bengals will definitely have their work cut out for them next weekend for the AFC title in the east.

"Yolo Group has partnered up with Estonian Student Satellite Foundation (ESTCube), who will help us send one Bitcoin to space! 🚀🛰️

ESTCube2 is a project ran by an Estonian satellite organisation made up of space enthusiasts and students. Their mission is to launch their new innovative satellite to space in Q4 2022.

The main goal of the ESTCube project is to develop, build and launch scientific nano-satellite missions. In addition to technical challenges, the project aims to promote and popularise science in schools and among the public.

Maarja Pärt, Yolo Group CEO said: “Finding innovative solutions has always been embedded in Yolo Group’s DNA and working with the ESTCube team has provided the perfect opportunity to do so.”

3190  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My second purchase with bitcoin on: January 23, 2022, 07:13:44 PM
the first one, congrats to you, it was a good experience.
as long as I know bitcoin, I have never made direct transactions with foreigners to buy things using bitcoin. anyway, i just did it by exchanging bitcoin for fiat, and bought something. I made transactions like that long ago.
however, it might be quite interesting to use bitcoins directly to buy something. Unfortunately, in my country, bitcoin is prohibited as a medium of exchange, so I may find it difficult to do so. well, or can only buy digital products such as domains, hosting, and so on.
This is what most from earlier on thought that bitcoin was only good for: To buy digital type goods and services.
But now it is more well known to be used to make purchases of physical goods as more and more retailers are accepting it due to the use of services such as paypal payments and coinbase friend to friend payments which are without transaction fees.
Bitpay use be the only way to pay these retailers as this was the only way they knew how to make it to be able to accept such payments. But now there are services such as square (now known as block) and crypto.com(where available) to be able to make those payments seemless from crypto to fiat. So the retailers don't need to hassle themselves with the technical aspects of accepting cryptocurrencies as a form of payment.

Ciryl was no match for the power horse, and the battle was rather simple: Ciryl was running around the cage throwing some schoolboy leg. I believe it was worth watching since Nagannuo chose not to knock him out.

Ngannuo is the type of fighter who doesn't let losses get into his head or wins get into his heart; he takes fight after fight. Ciryl is quite good with his leg and head work, but Ngannaou's major upsets come from his power hand.
Now we looking forward to the Tyson Fury Challenge!!

@Welsh I do also like the odds for Gane. He is not someone to underestimate in this fight and potentially take it the distance.
But I am going to back Ngannou, as buwaytress has already mentioned, the hype is approaching so that should heighten the odds for Ciryl backers.
I hope you did not change your tips at any point like buwaytress did along the way after the Ciryl hyping by Welsh  Grin
I stuck to my original pick even though the hype therefore odds kept dropping for a Ciryl win.
I've posted videos of Ngannou through out the entire time upon the buildup to the fight.
He was just too much of a powerhouse to go against at anytime and his focus was not to be ignored.

Went with an Ngannou win and was only off by not having it end early as the odds for that to happen were 1.33x just before the fight. As everybody thought there would be a knock out from either of these heavyweights.

As for Tyson Fury. I did Francis in a few videos getting boxing tips from Mike Tyson circulating around so he just might move his skills over to the boxing ring if Mr. Dana White doesn't up his paygrade as a true champion, as this fight without a doubt has shown the world.
The championship title from Gane has been unified into his own belt now.
3192  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NFL Sportsbet.io discussion & predications thread rev on: January 23, 2022, 06:47:30 PM
@ralle14 & @buwaytress  Upsets galore for the first championship matches yesterday! Angry

Feel bad for you and Packer fans around the globe with that 00:00 field goal for 49ers to win.
Jimmy G didn't have a single yard in the first quarter and think he only had 10 yards before the half ended.
The only way they won was that last play by Green bay kicking off from their own end zone and then having it blocked. It was up in the air for so long. The Packers didn't know where it was then it landed in the bunch of San Fran defenders to score the touch down to tie it.
That was a very painful loss to take and you can see it when they panned over to Rodgers after the winning field goal was scored.
The Titans got rolled over in a similar fashion with a winning field goal but they still had a chance to comeback at the end but Tannerhill gave up an interception to shut them down and the Bengals go on to face the winner in today's match.

Here are the two matches happening today with the Buccs vs Rams in about an hour:

Which one I could not say.

Huge weekend in the sports world for both UFC and the NFL.
Have both home sides to win in the NFL @1.50x earlier on today and in the UFC has a heavyweight bout going on tonight.
My money is on Ngannou to stay the champion and to amalgamate the interim belt into the one he already has.

Here we go in roughly 3 hours time. The weekend for the "Win it or your out!" part of the post season.

Both home sides are favorites to win today which include the Titans and the Packers (buwaytress pick to win it all!).
So if you want to put in your selections they are still available nearly 1.45x but are slowly going down.
https://sportsbet.io/sports/american-football/matches/today

Tomorrow will be the Chiefs and the Buccs.

Good luck on your picks in the NFL!

Essentially the main focus was on the sparring session both fighters had and each of them stating they knocked down the other.
Gane said he does not remember since it was back in 2019 but Ngannou doesn't buy that excuse but does agree it was a gym where they were not team.
It was all just to create hype and something to talk about in this fight since they do not have any rivalry really going on.
Francis and Jones does.
The main thing to take away from this press conference were the antics between Moreno and Figueiredo.
With one calling their opponent the bad guy and the other the hero of the match. Guess which one is which.
Also Figueiredo complaining about Brandon always bringing out that boom box and blasting it all over the venue.
This to me was quite funny and they actually showed the Moreno camp doing this during the junket.
Ngannou did mention about his partnership with dapperlabs to bring in the NFT market to the UFC under their own brand called UFCStrike. So expect to see some advertisement of this new platform before and during the fight tomorrow.

I think it will be something to watch before the weigh-ins as everybody is saying it will be lit.

Get your thoughts in after watching on what you think will happen during the bouts for all cards.
Am liking a KO from Ngannou in my predictions when I throw down my bet for the main card.
