I'm not convinced that USA came to play as a team as a saw so many mistakes between the players but I don't know if the players are tired after the NBA season or this team really struggles to have some chemistry and play like a full team or they had just another bad game. All 3 of this possibilities can be true but personally I think the players are kinda tired after NBA season but they will try their best to take the gold to USA.

Overpassing the ball and the leadership isn't there, I was thinking after that good rally coming
from Holiday that fire will start to heat up to all the players inside the floor. But it wasn't they blew that lead and ended up losing the game.

Dame time might forgot he's watch he keeps passing the ball, maybe he  also  left his balls  Tongue Grin Kidding aside, I don't think that letting Bam alone to protect the rim is the good idea but I'm not questioning how great coach Pop was, it's just a matter of good chemistry and the will to take charge whoever inside the court.

Still have the chance if I get it right, if they can win all the games that left for them which is very possible after losing this one.

In my opinion, citizen finance is a project that has the same potential as the Vulcan project, although it is relatively new, the price is very surprising, I hope the CIFI price can last until the project distributes tokens for bounty hunter participants.
CIFI tokens have been distributed to all participants who are members of social media, and those who have not received the tokens are only participants who sign and the BM said the CIFI team will make another payment in the near future.
good news that can be heard, because I read from the telegram group, many people are asking about the rewards of this bounty. especially now that cifi has a pretty good pump, so hunters can feel the results of their work while campaigning for this project. I think this project is good to invest too

Those campaign participants who already received their shares are surely enjoying the value of their rewards,

After that tremendous run bringing the value to that level and allowing those holders to enjoy, for early investors they are now in the part of deciding whether to start liquidating their assets or wait for some time since the development still ongoing and there are many possible things to happen to this coin.

Tough call but more on positive side since the price jumped much and worse case might break even or gaining 2 0r more folds.

DYIP is playing a good 1st half, we are in the 2nd half now with DYIP leading by 3 points. Anyone here taking the NLEX -3.5 full game?

I think NLEX will come back and win the game, they lose their last game and I'm sure they'll bounce back here.
DYIP is still a bad team, I have no confidence in this team so I'll always bet against this team.

I did not bet on the last game, I am just watching the game as I don't feel I could win. Your decision seems right, NLEX Road Warriors had a great run in the 3rd quarter, they beat the DYIP by 11 points and they are already in the lead now with 8 points going to the 4th quarter.

Congratulations, NLEX won the game and covered the spread.

The final score is 108-94, https://www.flashscore.com/basketball/philippines/... it's a 14 points win, and they dominated the DYIP In the 2nd half of the game. My bet was NLEX/DYIP..lol, the opposite happened.

Shit happened, watching that game from the first 2 quarters I was impressed thinking that DYIP will hold on
and continue countering NLEX attacks, but afterwards they started to turned the ball over and unable to make a good defense to stop NLEX attacks.

Those who bets during the live events for NLEX both ML and handicap that's a sweet win, the last time I checked  before the first hal end ML for NLEX @ 1.45 and handicap of -6 @ 1.80.

Most of the time, placing your bets during live games gives you more decent profits. Tongue
3244  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season Champion: Milwaukee Bucks on: July 25, 2021, 02:43:46 PM

They can't repeat championship, that was a one time trophy due to too many injuries on opponents. Next year there won't be this much injuries.

We never know, now that Bucks had already won a championship, we will see a more confident Milwaukee Bucks next season, also, expect that Giannis will improve as he is still young, they will try to develop him into an all-around player and more consistent with his FT shooting. The first five should remain intact, they can add some players to improve the teams' offense, particularly the 2nd unit as they might face a tougher challenge next season.

They need to add more role players if they are aiming for another ring,
the statement above is for real if there's no injuries with those super teams both Suns and Bucks will have the difficulty reaching the finals.

But since they are now the defending champ the value of this team may grow, finding or adding quality players is no longer hard for this team.

early to discuss the next season, lets wait for any possible trades from that we will see who's hot and possible to reach the finals.

When I have profited from the multiplier if it has reversed more profits then I need to withdraw about 80% and most importantly at least have secured the asset for other purposes or hold it and from the rest of the withdrawals can be made a small bet again but this is not too hopeful of a big win as long as running the bet is better.
I don't want to lose profits just because I want to be bigger, for me it's still not good.
This means that the withdrawal you make is only on the profit amount? leaving funds at the casino is quite reasonable, for example to reduce the withdrawal fee or also the fee when making new deposit to play, but honestly for me, leave funds at the casino, I will always be tempted to play, especially when bored with the activities i'm doing even though it is not the time to play, so need self control.

That's the problem I also have lol. From the moment you have funds on a casino site, you will always be tempted to play. That's why I try to withdraw my profits but leave my initial amount in the balance. Problem is that this is not really interesting with small amounts due to the fee.

It's hard to control that temptation  Grin most of the time when you know that you still have the fund,
you always feel the adrenaline thinking that you have a lucky day or you know that the team you are going to bet will win the game.
end outcome, boom you lose all your fund leaving you with regret thinking that if you just withdraw it all then you might enjoying those money,
agree that it's not worthy with small amount of fund Wink

-snip
-snip. AFAIK those crypto casinos where I'm playing at doesn't allow their employees to participate on their promotions. I'm not sure if they're still prohibited even though they could also be their customers for sometime.

Well if a streamer is playing with their own funds then Im pretty sure that it is fine but why would a streamer with a sponsored funds suddenly play with their own funds just for the sake of joining a promotions? That wont happen

I dont really watch Exposed that often but I have never seen him with any raffle tickets at all* showing in his account whenever there is a raffle promotions on Roobet so I dont think it will ever cross a streamer's mind to use their own funds when they are always guaranteed those sponsored funds.

*Idk, feel free to correct this statement if you have ever see Exposed collect raffle tickets in his account

I also don't  see that point, using your own money while the casino are sponsoring you.

The site have the capabilities to detect who's playing and for sure they won't allow streamers to play behind them, the sole purpose of giving live
streams is to attract gamblers to use the platforms and casinos will do everything to make it look real.

Just my cents, do those sponsored fund transferable thru sending tips to another gamblers?  Roll Eyes

This is clearly very different between trading and gambling, cannot be equated unless you play binary the same as gambling can only guess the price will go down or up.

Technically trading can be done as long as our analysis is right not just guessing but the basic analysis that we have gone through and the process so far, trading will not lose everything as long as we can research the coin with TA then it can be proven that the coin will soon reach that increase why trading and gambling are so different.

You still have chance to recover your money as long as you are not panicking with the current market downfall,
that's the difference between trading and gambling.

Unlike when you place your bets and you lose your pick everything dissolved from your wallet the minute the game got finished.

Trading is a process where opportunities are open for those who knows and understand the drill, if you are keen in finding the right system
and strategy, the higher chances that you'll going to take profits from your initial investments.

Kiefer Ravena gets PBA nod to play in Japan B.League
Ravena has been allowed to play with Lakestars for a year and then return to the PBA and suit up for NLEX anew.


What an offer. Allowed to play overseas, being paid there, then still have a team in the PBA once he returns. However, that will limit Ravena to continue playing overseas after a year. If the goal is to really leave PBA then switch careers abroad, it's best for me to just finish everything in PBA so he can continue with the Lakestar for more years. But prior to that, the contract should be multi-season so the next following years are secured.

Anyways, the deal was now finalized and that is, Ravena was only allowed to play for 1 season with the Lakestars. This just proved that everything can be settled properly if there are official negotiations.

I'm just wondering when this will be starting? After the current PBA All-Filipino Cup?

Cool deal for Ravena, as time passed by many Japan teams will seek for more players overseas,
in case he won't be suited to the team that he will play then he still got the NLEX to catch him and let him play again inside PBA.

What I'm curious with is the 1 season deal which you already explained that it will limits him to extend his stay, what if the team see he's good future.
the same thing that happened with his younger brother?

Should he give up his PBA career and take all the responsibilities if ever PBA / NLEX ask for him to comeback?
3249  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Don't panic on: July 23, 2021, 04:41:34 PM
They panic because they don't have enough knowledge about crypto so they wouldn't know how to deal with the market and that's actually normal for newbies. To be honest, all of us have committed mistakes in the beginning but it's just how we learn from it that's important. We couldn't be pros in the beginning but we could learn how to handle our emotions as we cope up with the changes in the market.
We should learn first to determine whether these is for short or long term investment. We will only need to panic when we know that the projects have no future at all since some projects are good in the long run while others are just it that moment. It's okay to panic at first, but later on we will know whether how long we can take the risk of investing and will be able to built a plan suit in our capabilities.

Identifying what types of assets we are holding is the best thing to do, you'll be ale set your goals if you know what kind of strategy to use.

Many traders and investors forget about doing their research and while they are into their investment they can't manage if the project dumped down.

It can be avoided if you have the right mindset regarding to your investment, easy to decide if you know whether if it's good for short or good for long.
3250  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Dissapointments of the creation of the thousands of failed altcoins. on: July 23, 2021, 04:16:10 PM
Failed altcoins are generally scammers, but it seems difficult for everyone to analyze which project is a scam. Many people invest with everyone without thinking about themselves, and there are also many scammers who will find people with fans to make hype and publicity, so that everyone will usually be deceived. There are still many copycats that are issued normally, but no one pays attention or purchases them, so they will slowly die.
Aside from that most of failed Altcoins also due to the team hardly able to keep up with the project or even the project itself stuck on its popularity not gaining traction in the market.
With failed coins that are because of rugpull they usually grown in popularity but the dev just decide to rugpull, but most of people overlook coins that consistently giving update but it become unsustainable when the project didn't get popular.

Simply because the team is not really after to anything but just to get the money out from the wallet of the investors, the intentions is to get the

attentions and once they'll already gained the target amount, they'll just disappear and runaway with the money.

Influencers affects the decision making of some investors and traders, the impact shown inside the project is simply temporary, it will die along the way.

3251  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: July 23, 2021, 03:53:50 PM
Romeo did not play, maybe he is still resting to heal that injury he suffered in the first game. I think I will watch the highlights because I love that SMB has won the game, also, Fajardo seems to be slowly getting back on his grove, he played 24 minutes made 14 points and 10 rebounds, that's a good start.

Fajardo set the tone and Tautua finish what Junemar have started and dominated the NLEX Road Warriors. I never expected that from Fajardo since he was sloppy in their first game. This is bad news for other teams that Fajardo starting to find his rhythm, few more games, and the Kraken will be unleashed hehe.



^^ that was a mistake on my part as on my mind I would be betting for NLEX but just surprised to see my ticket have won lol. Must be a sign on not to go against the Beermen from hereon.

Congrats man, that mistake give you a good win tonight. SMB now seemed to be fully intact again, they are so confident as they have their best player back in the game. NLEX had a good start but they just dominated by the SMB in this game, this is a message for other teams that the king is back.

Hehehe, if all the mistake will be that way I wanted to keep making mind.. Grin

Good to see also that CJ Perez is bringing his offensive contributions knowing him as top scorer plus JMF's good rhythm this is what SMB wanted to
bring inside the table, with this kind of performances coming from all the players who played the game, we are seeing the dominance.

Congrats to all those who bet for SMB and BGSM handicap being covered..
3252  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season Champion: Milwaukee Bucks on: July 22, 2021, 12:11:05 PM
^^ Yes, Portis is also a big contributor not just in offense but somewhat when he is inside he can inspire the team, now that's one intangible that you can obviously, can't measure.

For the Phoenix Suns, yes, Paul will not retire, he will still chase that championship ring. He is still healthy but needs to be really be careful. Not sure about those super teams rumors though, it will just tip the balance again. And Bucks proved that you don't need to build one, just one good caliber player in Giannis and then surround with quality supporting and role players.

Portis brings good impact after that Semis without Giannis, he helped a lot each time coach call him to play.
Nothing to say about the Suns they've tried to win but things didn't worked it out according to their favor, Bucks is much deeper and have that eagerness
to win the game, most of those 3 last games has been decided in the last few minutes of the game, just not that lucky to convert important shots to win.

Another market twist after this event? But better than nothing, if the fall continue might take a while but the recovery,
as weak holders will sell out and will stop investing.

With this market positive movements, another chance for newcomers to notice that there's
money that moving greatly and the potentials is still high.

3254  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are all altcoins dependent on Bitcoin? on: July 22, 2021, 10:20:37 AM
BTC is not the foundation of altcoins because altcoins have its own usage and market value. Bitcoin has the highest value altcoins thats why if its price drop or increase it will affect the other altcoins as BTC is the main crypto currency in the wolrd.

In theory, altcoins have their own unique usage. But in 90% of the cases, they are just used as a mode of payment, or as a store of value (especially with stablecoins). And with so much competition in the payments sector (and where the recent growth is minimal), there is a lot of overlap between the altcoins and Bitcoin. Since both of them are used for the same purpose, the exchange rates will also remain closely linked. On top of that, the user profile is also very similar. It will be very difficult to find cryptocurrency users who exclusively use either BTC or altcoin. In the vast majority of the cases, they will be using both.

Mostly store for investment that's why the value are really close together,  Until now we are seeing that they continue
to work alongside and not  independently, Bitcoin continue being used as benchmarks of every alts.

The value still relies with how community support Bitcoin, and that's reality until there's coin aside from stable coin
this cycle will continue working like this.

Very difficult as aside from BNB and ETH which been recognized by more users and traders, other coins will continue to wait for mass adoptions.

This was all misconceptions from traders who doesn't have learnings obtained from trading, because they're into this money making process without awareness for possible negative and positive outcomes.
Misconception coming from those who are just looking for benefits and not studying the pro and cons from this industry, it's very important
to balance everything before jumping to any investment that you'll going to take.

What's important here if you wanted to learn everything, don't limit yourselves into specific strategy; you can find all resources based on reality on market trending activities.
Keep trying mixing strategy in due time you'll be able to manifest good system that will help you to achieved working from this market.

They lost because they failed to handle themselves in times of pressures specially when emotions triggers fear and anxiety when price started to crash down.
That's your number one enemy, fears inside you needs to work out and overtaken, it will keeps you moving forward if you accomplished beating it up.

3256  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling attracted to emotion or luck on: July 21, 2021, 11:13:51 AM
Not intending to win? So you have the power to be able to win every time you please? That's a pretty neat ability if you ask me. I think that there's something about that that makes me laugh. I think what happened to you as more of an emotion rather than luck because it's not like the game can smell and feel that you are quitting that the game gave you a win.

But in the last statement he also mentioned that he keeps on losing once he's focused and trying to win the game.

Something that ain't right, but following that  there's no such thing aside from good luck that take over and give him the win. Most of the time, serious gamblers always focused with how they play the game and they win it with strategy and system that they've created.

Emotion should take aside it won't help you but mostly leads you to lose your control.

[..snip..]

[..snip..]

Congrats to both of you, it seems though that there are no consensus in the final game. And maybe others are rooting for the Suns to win and force a game 7.

But Giannis is too much for the Suns to handle. They were down and I said that we might see a decider in Phoenix but then again, they come back take the lead in the 3rd and didn't let it go. I guess we have to wait for the next season. Hopefully though they will be back on regular schedule, - October-June.

Suns unable to hold that 1st half leads, Bucks is really too much for them. That 50 points performance from Giannis is really amazing.

He keep pushing and take lots of calls each time he attacks the basket. Paul did score good numbers but this time booker did not comes up with how

fans expect him, Congrats to Bucks for winning this season title and congrats to all believers who managed to win both ML and handicap!
3258  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Dissapointments of the creation of the thousands of failed altcoins. on: July 21, 2021, 09:11:53 AM

Fair enough, I guess. But I do think we have to stop feeding newbies and newcomers false promises and false marketing (saying use case when there isn't any, saying decentralized when it's clearly not, for example).

Broken "communities" full of wen moon lambo people and scammers is not a healthy community. Communities that don't even last a year when tokens dump, isn't going to help mass adoption.

Very good point, as long it is possible feeding those newcomers to avoid projects that only exist to allure investors.

Projects that don't have real case usages and just full of sweet promises, we are in this wild market where lazy newbies are always aiming for quick profits.

Though, it isn't our business but helping by sharing your knowledge about it is not bad right? it depends how will those newbies will take things in their hands.
3259  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you a gambler? on: July 21, 2021, 08:22:49 AM
Everything will end up to this,

If you have that will to stop, there are many ways to use your time and energy, instead of focusing with your gambling activities you can divert

your attentions to other things, and with the way you wrote up it's a good example of working with your self determination and not to engaged
that much again, no one can really help aside from your own passions to stop,.


I have been addicted until not very long ago.However I have passed it all,no problems for me whatsoever now.How I passed is easy,I just started doing other things after work rather than gambling,like going out for a run,learning a new skill or technology and things like this.Now I have come to a point where I can play when I want and I can stay for months without playing if I feel like it.What I want to say is that all depend on our self at how good we can handle situations like this.
3260  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your betting budget on: July 20, 2021, 10:58:01 AM
I pay all my bills first and set aside extra money for unexpected expenses. I don't think of gambling too much and if I gamble I spend only few hours playing to relax and unwind. Losing in gambling can give you more stress and problem, also ot gives me a lot of pressure whenever I lose and being forced to use extra money to win back my losses. So,I stay away as much as I can and play lesser as much as possible.

With kind of mindset better to avoid or stick with low to none budget for your gambling activities,

if happened that there are free  rolls with the sites you are using better to take advantage of it than
to deposit real money and be taking away by your emotions and lose a lots of money from your savings.

Not an easy task when you already engaged and already have that pleasures inside you, the desire of keep moving forward attracts you to add more
funds to your wallet and that's  a big sign that you need to quit while you still have the time.
