        -    Actually, this is very important if it can be implemented properly and correctly. For sure, the majority of gamblers in a casino will always have a smile on their lips, but in reality,
this does not happen often because most of them are actually preceded by greediness in their minds until it controls them. 

So often, in the end, the majority of them lose. A casino really shows that they have control of the game in every casino and not every player.

Vast majorities will lose it back to the house those who got their chance to quit or stop but instead greed conquer them and push them to continue playing, at the end of the day they'll mostly ends up losing and casino will be the one that will enjoy, though there are some who can control greed and will manage to ends up as winner but most are not.


Well, the limits of each of us are always limited, personally I have always said something, when we start playing, our financial capacity always has a lot to do with differentiating ourselves from that of others, in that sense it will always be It is seen that Every time we go in to make a bet we must think about how much we are willing to lose, but otherwise we must not go overboard, because if we have about 400usd in our wallet and if by chance we want to play, then it is good to play with little money, not have the entire wallet to spend, because running out of money is not an option, so for me that depends on the maturity of the person in how they manage their money.


Indeed, it's going to depend from how wise and how matured the gambler was, putting everything might risk you to over exceed from your set limits, better to just deposit the amount that you are willing to let go as it will be easier to quit when you already empty handed, it won't push you to keep playing if there's nothing left from the set budget that you have inside your bankroll.

Unlike with depositing it all and even you set your target chances that you'll push for more till the last drop of your initial deposits been gone.

It's more on controlling yourself and not to let your emotion to push you, know when to stop will always benefited you.

Sometimes it is difficult to determine how to do it for the money we must risk in the casino because most people say and think that the more money they risk the more they will win, that is something logical and there is a lot of agreement to be made. It is better, however, I always recommend setting a schedule, after having bought and paid all the basic Obligations , after that it is good to think about the game, the bets and everything you can do to play, I sometimes in the week I can't play because I don't have enough money, if I play and stop buying things, or don't do the Basics , it would be my irresponsibility.


Better to settle first everything that needs to be taken care before you start your gambling, it will lessen the stress as most of the time the money that you'll going to spend are amount that you can let go, though it depends from how the gambler control greed and their patience in using their time while playing.

Maswerte lang talaga ang Wolves kasi muntikan ng mag choke, lamang sila pag start ng 4th quarter pero nakahabol ang Dallas at lumamang pa. Ni review ko ulit dito, https://www.espn.ph/nba/playbyplay/_/gameId/401672979
tatlong sunod na 3 points pala ginawa ni KAT sa 4th quarter, medyo swerte nga.

Oo kabayan yung tatlong sunod na yun ang nagbigay sa kanila ng medyo maayos ayos na kalamangan pero muntikan pa sila kasi ung 4point play ni Luka kung nakuha nila yung bola sa rebound baka naipilit pa ng Mavs sa OT yung laban buti na lang at hindi ganun ang nangyari at yung mga naniwala sa Wolves eh kahit papano nakalusot at nakapanalo.


Quote
Game 5 na at underdog yung Mavs mukhang maganda yang plano mo kabayan kasi kung sakaling tapusin na ng Mavs yung series medyo malaki laki yung odds mo dyan sa ML na yan!
Syempre Dallas tayo diyan kasi maraming tao sa Wolves tataya lalot naka isa na ang wolves tapos home court pa nila.
Ika nga, pinapanalo na sa game 4, gusto pa ulit manalo, hehe.. mukhang tatapusin na ng Mavs yan.

Tignan natin kabayan kung mauulit ng Mavs na talunin ulit ang Wolves sa mismong homecourt nila, kung sakasakaling kayanin para hindi na makapag extend pa mahirap kasi baka makapag push pa itong Wolves sa series at makasilat pa sayang yung pinag paguran ng Mavs.

Better to wait for the finals if you don't have that choice inside you, like you, my interest is no longer that much unlike before when real competitions are really being witness inside the court, sister teams mostly controlled by the owners, not just rumors but a reality that most fans doesn't like about the league.

Or hold it if we are not sure which team to beat. However, we can choose on the other alternatives like the total which is the under/over. I don't know if you will have fun just betting on the total but that's what I do when I can't choose on the teams that will play. This is game 7, if the last 3 games was very physical, I think it will be more in game 7 as it's the last game of the series, sort like championship game.

I think at this point we have to trust the team with the better coach, and obviously we are aware that Tim Cone is the better coach here, so trust this man as he brought us a championship in the Asian games.

Good point in that last statement, though even how good the coach it will be depends on how the squad will play the game, and like what you mentioned I also think that it will be more physical as how we are witnessing it from that last 3 previous games, Meralco manage to push the series to the final game 7 do-or-die, I guess that's something that fans will really love to watch as it's more on a championship type of a game compared to the finals that awaits, with SMB waiting to whoever will win from these series not to disrespect to whoever will win but the advantage of SMB squad is really by far.

Be positive now on Lively as he is upgraded to questionable in game 5.

Mavericks' Dereck Lively: Questionable for Game 5

Quote
Lively (neck) is questionable for Thursday's Game 5 against Minnesota.

Lively missed Game 4 due to his sprained neck, but he does appear to be trending in a positive direction. We should get another update following Thursday's morning shootaround, but if Lively is able to return, Daniel Gafford's minutes would dip and Dwight Powell could fall out of the rotation entirely.

Update like this is big, and there's a big chance that he will play. I think he was just fine in game 4 but they didn't push him to play to give more rest, but after what happened, Dallas can't afford to still sit him and watch the team loss.

I guess at this point I'm taking mavs +5, because if Lively will indeed play, that will move to +3.5 at least.
https://www.oddsshark.com/nba/odds

I also see that Mavs will play him as they will try to finish this series, we all know what he's adding inside with his presence they can have possible 2nd chance points and his presence will not allow the twin towers of Wolves to dominate inside, plus, Luka and Kyrie as we know them they love bringing the ball inside if there's an open opportunities.

With the handicap I guess there are gamblers who will take that opening offer from the bookies, especially for those risk takers as they can take the ML believing that Mavs will push for this one to win and move forward to the finals.

Literally speaking, trading can really be a job or a source of income if we are talking about crypto trading. But your knowledge of trading must be extensive and deep, because if your knowledge is only superficial, it cannot be a source of income for anyone.

It will only appear in the end that you are just gambling when you trade here in the crypto space. Now, as long as there are buyers and sellers of coins that you trade here, there is also a chance that you can get a profit in crypto trading as well. Trading will only stop if the buyer of crypto assets also stops.
It could be a good job if you are really good at trading but if not, I suggest just considering this as a part-time job. Why? It is because of the nature of the market, the volatility makes traders especially if we don't have the capabilities and good knowledge about this lose than earning money. It is the fact that we need to understand that trading should not be taking easy nor do we make ourselves too confident.

And OP is right, health problem is one reason why we could say this is not a lifetime job. We could think that there is some limitations and the time will come that we can no longer perform that tasks like what we did while still young.

Understanding the possibilities and yes there's always an impact in terms of your physical health, especially those who can't handle pressures as stress may triggered different after-effects of those emotions that being released after several trades that you went thru, it's always good to understand and analyze your capacity,

and since it's more on assessments and analysis you must always be ready in terms of working side by side with your own knowledge and all those differect strategy that you can adopt and use espeially those that you already got and keep on adjusting to make sure that it will work with your type as a trader.

They need  to do that since making those big games available for people on out of the town may get back their interest to watch what PBA could offer to them. Also if they stay on their old venues then maybe they will not get much better result as they know the number of people still watching PBA live is declining so maybe they will be in huge shame if they can see that there's less people watching while they are heading to semis.

Yeah, they need to fnd ways to bring the interest of the fans, they can coordinate those games with politicians to sponsor the venue for sure it will bring decent exposures not just for the PBA itself but more for the politicians especially that the incoming election is nearing they will manifest for this kind of events, just sharing what I think will make someting possible for the league, we know by the fact that if there's organizers that will host the venues fans will be there and with how they doing now, they are bringing people to watch the live games and it makes it doable to have those old time and newcomers to have that support back for PBA.

Quote
But also let see what will be the odds of this since we are not really so sure about that. I maybe think about betting on Ginebra if I have time but to watch their game online but if not maybe I will pass on it and just wat for finals since I don't have much huge interest on PBA since I don't find it interesting compare before where a lot of teams are so competitive.

Better to wait for the finals if you don't have that choice inside you, like you, my interest is no longer that much unlike before when real competitions are really being witness inside the court, sister teams mostly controlled by the owners, not just rumors but a reality that most fans doesn't like about the league.
347  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022–23 PBA Commissioner's Cup on: May 29, 2024, 11:08:13 PM
It will be interesting if Gin kings loses game 6 and play again for the game 7 do-or-die match, though I have that feeling that they might push everything that they've got to win the game. It's a big risk if they give Bolts another chance as the team can snatch this series as how we watch the games previously, without the help of that loud voice of Al francis to the ref I think the series might be still in favor for the the Bolts, just kidding, but let see if what will happen for today's game, good luck to all those who already place their bets!
This is more like giving a PBA Finals feeling for me as the two teams are evenly matched. I also have a feeling that we might not see Ginebra vs. SMB in the Finals; it will be Meralco vs. SMB since they are not owned by the same company. The Bolts' defense has also improved, as they only allowed Ginebra to score 81 points. I think whoever gets into the PBA Finals and can limit SMB to scoring less than 90 points per game has a chance of winning, but if not, the opposite will happen.

Newsome struggled with his shooting but the clutch Free throws in the end that didn't give the Ginebra a chance to come back was huge, he didn't miss all 4 free throws so they keep the 2 position ball game within few seconds left only.
We all know many want Ginebra to win, but for the sake of the league it’s better if Meralco will take over the spot and proceed to the finals. Meralco should do everything to win because they already have a good chance and getting back into the finals is a big thing. Meralco vs SMB in the finals can finally change the scenario in PBA, and I bet for this to happen.
We are gonna fade the public this time, I'm sure everyone will backing the Ginebra in game 7. Honestly, I find the move very risky because Ginebra does win a game 7 most of the time, but that was the time when Brownlee was playing, here it's all Filipino cup, I don't know if they can still make it but with the support of the crowd in a Friday night, they might demonstrate the never say die attitude, so it's quite risky. I think I'll just go with the total, probably under.

Yeah most of the time Gin kings shows that never say attitude as they'll do everything to win it for the crowd,  though I can smell something might be cooking behind, the chance of seeing Meralco to the finals might bring competition but in the other hand, without Gin kings in the finals chances that fans might not also gain that interest hahaha I'm torn between my manipulative speculation against the reality that Meralco also deserves it if ever they managed to upset the Gin kings, and same with you I'll also be looking for another alternative and not to go with who will win between these two competing teams.
348  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If we lose in gambling, what do we need to do? on: May 29, 2024, 07:09:06 PM

It's true what you say, sometimes it's better to stop and go away from gambling to rest, rest the thoughts that must be taken so that careless actions don't occur which can result in big losses which honestly shouldn't happen, but the feeling of wanting to win or wanting revenge cannot be hidden. The grudge is definitely there and is an incentive to continue gambling.
That's right, but you have to be very careful because it can be a double-edged sword, because the resentment and the desire to play and win are many and that can later become an obsession, especially when the player has a weak mentality Regarding the game, a person who plays has to be clear about something, the house advantage is a fact that will always be there, and the players always have to see it, that's why I say that a player has to have control, and above all the negative emotions that for me are a desire for resentment, revenge, all that, for me they are negative feelings that I don't know how much benefit can be derived from them and transferred to something positive.



It backfires on you if you keep that emotions and allow your desire to keep trying back, most of the time if you unable to handle that kind of pressures you ended up losing more, it's better to hold it and take time to rest, stop and quit after losing and reassess what you done wrong, instead of having that desired to try winning back which most of the time will not happen to you, or if ever chances gives you that luck but with greed that comes up will soon bring all those funds back to the house.

I mean, you need to have that drive to avoid making mistakes or another mistake which can lead you to a bigger problem. Take time to analyze and assess yourself as it will help you preventing to get engaged and become addicted.

Finally, the Wolves managed to win. They had fewer field goal attempts but made more than the Mavs. However, they need to improve their free throws; they are really bad at it. They only managed to make 16 out of 25. Although they have managed to extend the series, they still need to win three in a row to reach their first NBA Finals. That's kind of hard to do against the Mavs unless they show what they did in the first and second rounds of the playoffs. Then, they do have a chance, but currently, I'm not very optimistic.
Still to far from the reality of beating the Mavs. As what was showed in the screen when I watch the game, there are only 4 teams in the history of NBA that went to game 7 from 0-3 deficit, but of course, no team had succeeded to win yet, but let's see if they'll make a history, they just need to win one game at a time.

The loss of Lively was really huge, but it was a close game actually until KAT can't miss on the outside, if he play like that in game 5, then there's a likelihood that the series will be extended in 6 or even in 7.
It's just a matter of time in the like of Towns being a good shooter to finally found his touch and his rhythm in this game. And he could be reading all the criticism that he got from this series, specially in game 3 wherein he didn't hit any threes. Same with Edwards as well, they seems to be carrying the game until in the last minutes where the Mavs took over. But not in this game though, both of them shot very well and there are no crucial turnover and they didn't choke. But still a long way to go for them to pull the impossible to comeback from a 0-3 deficit and win the series.

That's the good description both KAT and ANT didn't choke for this game, we witnessed their adjustments and finally they both managed to bring something and carry the loads to win this game, they avoided being swept but still a long way to go, one game at a time to make it close in these series they need everything to avoid taking that early vacation and failed to move forward for the finals, let see if what adjustments they'll going to made on their next game.

PEPE coin has become the first candidate as a popular meme token today, most people are reluctant to buy lots of PEPE coins because the price is already quite high, so it has been proven that many billionaires invested in this meme coin when it was first listed. There are two possibilities when buying at a high price, there is a risk that the price will dump suddenly because the bull run market is not a benchmark for an increase in meme tokens, the lucky ones with meme tokens are just lucky in choosing.

Aside from those lucky investors there are also manipulators who are working behind that certain spike or dump in price of this meme asset, you need to have that big nerve when placing your position for this asset, when you take your place make sure that you are willing to let go if ever things is not going according to how you anticipate things,

it's more on trying your luck riding with those people behind this project and not just to follow how the market is working alongside with this meme asset, it's up to your good anticipation and willingness to take that risk as chances to lose your investment if timing is not right.
351  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading is not a lifetime job. on: May 29, 2024, 11:36:55 AM
I'm sure not all traders will agree with me but some could possibly be on my side...

Here are the reasons why;
 1. It is quite stressful - old traders will soon give up due to mental health problems
 2. It is not enjoyable anymore - nobody will stay long in a job that they no longer find themselves comfortable with especially if you are not earning well.
      Most of the time we feel this during bear season.
 3. Trust issue due to Scam growth - traders never find it safe to use exchanges, even big exchanges.



Part of our emotional battles in trading, we're prone to that state of feelings and reality talks particular situations.
Though we find it stressful and not enjoyable, the essence is still meaningful as we move forward to our career.
We can do it by means of part time involvement, not totally doing it as lifetime if you don't have enough capital to invest for holdings.

Yeah right, it's reality that we have emotions and feelings that's been triggered, especially when things is not working according to how we anticipate the situations, most of the time, you're getting bored as you are waiting for quite sometime and the market did not push thru, we can't conclude or there's no accurate time frame as it's more on how we anticipate and how we continue our research to keep that positivity alive, we just need to have that set goals and the kind of motivations that will allow us to handle all the pressure including those emotional stress for us to able to continue and find it worthy to move forward and work more for our success.

Hindi pala maka pag laro si Lively Bukas, rest muna ang big man natin, hehe..

Haynes: Dereck Lively II out for Mavericks vs. Wolves in Game 4 with Neck Injury

Ano sa tingin ninyo ang nangyari, sinadya kaya ito ni KAT, or unintentional lang?

Para bukas naman, kahit walang Lively, tingin ko tatapusin na ng Dallas ang series para maka pag handa na rin sila sa Celtics, 4-0 same sa East.
Luka at Irving pa rin magdadala nito, saka Gafford meron naman katulong although hindi lang masyadong scorer.

Malaking bagay sa kanila kung wala si Lively, kasi itong series na to eh ang ganda ng pinakita nitong rookie na to. Alley oop, easy 2 points at walang magawa ang big men the Wolves. Ang good news sa Dallas eh babalik si Maxi Kleber sa lineup, so may big men naman mapalit at may tira pa sa labas is Kleber.

Ako rin sa silip ko baka Dallas narin to, biglang tahimik ang trash talking na si ANT kasi mali ang tinarantado nya hehehe, si Irving pa naman kaya ayun pinagod sya kakahabol at parang hirap sya umiskor sa series na to ang bagsak ang average nya. Same din kay KAT, sama ng shooting nya sa tres, although may tira naman to kaya lang sa series na to alat sya.

At ayun na nga, nagawa pa ng Minnesota na makaisa. Iba rin pala talaga pag meron si Lively. Dami pa naman iimprove si Lively pero patok siya laban sa Minnesota na merong twin towers. Tsaka ang alat rin ni Luka. Sa pagka-alala ko ay talo parati ang Dallas pag mag below 40% ang FG ni Luka at nangyari na naman. Akala ko nakawin ulit ng Dallas ang laro sa huling few minutes pero wala. Minalas rin talaga ang Dallas, daming good shots na ayaw pumasok samantalang second quarter pa lang ay foul trouble na sana ang tatlong superstars ng Minnesota.

Better luck next time nalang sa Dallas, hehe... Pangit ng laro ni Kyrie, saka iba talaga pag merong lively kasi hindi masyadong pagod si Gafford. Sayang ang chance, foul trouble pa naman mga big men ng Wolves pero ganda rin kasi ang shooting ni ANT saka si KAT nagpakawala ng 3 point shots na pumapasok naman.. Para talaga sa Wolves yun, pero sa game 5 mga kabayan, Dallas pa rin ako, moneyline .

Spread ngayon, +5.5 ang Dallas, kaya magandang tayaan sa moneyline.
Si KAT para sa kin yung nagpanalo ng game ung mga pinakawalan nyang mga 3 points akala ko nung lumamang na ng 3 points yung Mavs magsisimula ng magkalat yung Wolves buti na lang kay KAT pumunta yung opensa nila kasi malamang kung ANT yun baka nawala nanaman sa hulog, maganda din kasi yung pagkakahugot ng coach ng Wolves kay Anderson instead na si Reid, epektibo din kasi yung pagiging decoy nya.

Game 5 na at underdog yung Mavs mukhang maganda yang plano mo kabayan kasi kung sakaling tapusin na ng Mavs yung series medyo malaki laki yung odds mo dyan sa ML na yan!
353  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022–23 PBA Commissioner's Cup on: May 29, 2024, 11:16:08 AM
Watched the highlights and yeah, CStand was amazing with his jumpshots but couldn't hit high percentage on his free throws hehe.

C Stand has improve his game, he needed that mid range jumper so he can still get some points even not close to the paint. And yes, his problem really is the FT, it's very low, I think he should change his form as I believe that can be develop. In fact, I think Gobert was worst than him in terms of FT, but look at Gobert now, his FT percentage is very high, he knew how to do the right timing when throwing the ball. I hope to see C. Stand improve in the future as with his size and height, it would be easy for him to get fouled, so his FT is one of the best weapon.

It's Game 6 today. After two straight wins by the Gin Kings, I think it's time for the Meralco Bolts to bounce back and even the series. Game 7 this coming Friday would be fun since they can expect a big crowd, and of course, when there's a crowd, Ginebra is most likely to win the game.

Based on the current betting spread, Ginebra is -3.5, but I'll take the opposite side. Just in case the Wolves lose but the game is close, I think I'm still on the right side. The game will start at 7:30 PM, so we can definitely watch this game.

It will be interesting if Gin kings loses game 6 and play again for the game 7 do-or-die match, though I have that feeling that they might push everything that they've got to win the game. It's a big risk if they give Bolts another chance as the team can snatch this series as how we watch the games previously, without the help of that loud voice of Al francis to the ref I think the series might be still in favor for the the Bolts, just kidding, but let see if what will happen for today's game, good luck to all those who already place their bets!
354  Economy / Gambling / Re: My betting strategies on: May 29, 2024, 10:39:50 AM

That's correct my friend because odds don't upset us when we lose, but it's the amount of money we are putting. That's why there's a saying, "Bet only what you can afford to lose," because it's very important to understand how to minimize the risk in gambling. Odds are set by experts and reflect the probability of winning. You can go with high odds or low odds, but what matters is winning most of the time so you'll end up profitable. However, if you are not disciplined with your bankroll management, even if you win 8 out of 10 bets, you can still end up wiping your bankroll if you get aggressive and go all-in after a loss.

Yes bro, because we have to know first what risks we are taking, profit or loss, if we have received profits greater than losses it means we have mastered the trick, then we can minimize losses, if the losses are continuous it means we don't fully know our tricks , each of these has its own process, as you said earlier, we have to manage our finances so that we don't keep losing, we have to minimize losses, don't let our lust when we keep losing can result in us being destroyed because we are too sure of winning. In the future, take definite steps, don't be careless because of the temptation of victory in front of your eyes. If you really win, it's still okay, if you keep losing continuously, over time it will destroy itself.

As mentioned from the post you quoted, it's still possible to ruined your bankroll even you got more numbers of win, it's going to depend from how you handle the pressure, it's true that with aggressions you'll end up betting all in and lose the opportunity to earn some, I guess betting strategy is important if you know how to follow and execute your set plans.

And I go with the point where you manage your finances carefully and the time that you'll be spending to make sure that you are in-line with your plans.

Though sometimes, you might exceed but as long as you still able to stop and not to keep it going then you'll still have that chance to make it up and reset your original plans.
355  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The madness of gambling addicts. on: May 29, 2024, 10:29:00 AM
Gambling addiction with it problem and the ways one can handle it or try to solve it.Some persons turn to become what they don't want or never wanted to be because of addiction,and find it difficult to be able to live without being a menace to the family and society at large.Everyone who is addicted has one or two challenges that he or she is passing through which might cause damage to their mental health,but hope and patience make people that are still gambling continue it,hoping for better days,which is a day of luck.

But that "day of luck" may never happen until all your capital is gone. It's possible.
Gambling addiction is an expensive bad habit and I think anyone who is near being one should start thinking about stopping it. Even if you are rich, you can end up living in the streets if one person would not be able to control it.
There are ways to feed our boring times and I think focusing on those different hobbies will be the key to avoid gambling the whole day.
Yes, it can also cause mental damage which usually starts with stress when you keep on losing and don't have any idea how you will get back all the money you spent. I've been on that position many times that I could tell I should stop because I am losing more than what I can afford to lose. It's not healthy anymore especially if you set a budget and you are not following your own rules and limit anymore.

With over exceeded budget and the time that you are spending inside the house, that's connects you to something that remove the balance between your self control and your emotions, once you already aiming to keep playing instead of following whatever your set limits, expect to see yourself regretting what will you become after, addiction is something that tough to compete with, it's more on your self-will and that adrenaline inside you who keep pushing you to keep playing for more.
Most of those gambling addicted person no longer have that control inside them that's the reason why they are capable to do something that unexpected from them, most are worse things that ruined both their relationship and most to their finances.
356  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do some people hide to gamble on: May 29, 2024, 02:35:32 AM
So at this point I decided to bring it here to know or see different views from different intellects here on why do some people hide just to gamble or if it is the best way to gamble ?.
Do you often find them hiding in that place while gambling, if so, maybe they do this so that their family doesn't get caught gambling, but if they only occasionally gamble in that place, it could be that they are not actually hiding to gamble, but because they They didn't know what to do when they were hanging out with their friends, so they spontaneously decided to gamble at that place and have fun while telling long stories with their friends.
Some people don't like to be seen when gambling because they always claim to people that they are not gambler, some behave like that for them to extract money from other inform of doing something reasonable, and funny part of it you will see them criticising gambler when ever other are  talk about them.  Some people usually hide because they always claim that they have changed but since it has become addicted to them, they hide so that his friends or family members will not notice them.

Funny but I got your point, there are people who's hindi their gambling participations even they already deeply engage with gambling they keep trying not to be notice as they don't want to be criticize, some do hide their gamblings and try to point fingers to others just to divert the attentions and not to tag them as one of those who already addicted, for many reason there is,  most gamblers doesn't want to feel that shame that's why as long as they can hide it, they will keep on pretending that they are not involve or they already change their direction just to have that clean name in the eyes of those people who loves criticizing a person that's involve to gambling.

Yeah, congratulations to Jaylen as well for winning the conference MVP. I thought that it's Jayson Tatum that will get it.
Tatum was the favorite to win but it was Brown who had a better contribution in the series, so he deserve that. Actually, like that as we can clearly see that these two best players of the team are having great games, which means the chemistry is really good.

However, just look at this reality.

1st round beat the Miami (less Butler)
2nd round beat the Cavaliers (less Mitchell)
ECF beat the Pacers ( less haliburton)..

Their journey really is quite easy, but can they beat a healthy team like the Dallas Mavericks?

Dallas is not that 100% healthy, Lively could be out and Luka is still limping and we can see that in the last game. But still he gave everything for a 3-0 lead. But we shouldn't take anything from Boston though, and that's why they have 4-1 score against Miami/Cavs and 4-0 against Haliburton.

Even if Butler/Mitchell/Haliburton is healthy, I think the Celtics will still continue to win that series but perhaps the score could be much closer and not almost a sweep.

Now they are just waiting for their opponents, and as what we are seeing, with the Mavs leading 3-0, this could be the first time for Luka to go and move in the finals and gave this franchise another chance to win a NBA title.

Luka has been carrying that injury since the OKC series, so I think he is fine. My concern is Lively; he is out in Game 4, but hopefully, he'll be back for the NBA Finals if Dallas ends the series today. I'm not saying the Celtics won't win even with healthy opponents, it's just that they have had an easy route to the finals because their opponents missed their star players.

Dallas vs. Celtics, I can say it's a 50-50 game, although sportsbooks would offer odds that favor the Celtics as the favorite to win the series. That's why I like to back Dallas. I am impressed with their defense; everyone plays hard, and I think they deserve a championship.

If ever that Dallas will end the series today it would be interesting to see if which team will win the title,  both are deserving after reaching the finals, and as per my opinion,  aside from luka and Kylie, JT and JB also hunger for the title both young superstars are really aiming for this a second time that they'll reached the finals hoping that it will be their time now, though still not done in terms of west finalist still got game to finish for the Mavs after the game or after it's completed then that's the best time to discuss the potential of who will be crown for this seasons Champ!

Excessive greed should be avoided in trading. Because those who enter the trade for a short period of time should exit with a small profit. Becoming a successful trader is not easy. You have to be very patient. Investing in the right coin and being patient for a long time will certainly yield good returns. But it is best not to take trades for a short period of time.
As with greed, excess leverage causes more losses for a trader. Therefore, for those who do futures trading, less risk with less leverage should be kept in mind.

The level of greed also increase when you managed to make a successful calls, but likewise it's really the big factor that affects each traders, either you are for long term trade or short term trade both are being affected of that greed inside you, though there are people who can manage to control their greed traders who really pay attention and keen with the details of their trades and how they set up their targets,  both limitation and how you execute your plans are mostly succeeded once you manage to overcome your greediness.

It's very important to control greed and if possible to limit yourself, placing targets both on your winning and losing target will helps you preventing doing the same mistake over and over.
Greed is very difficult to control. People who make money by betting once are greedy and want to double bet and double bet away. But every human being is greedy, but those who are excessively greedy will suffer greatly because of their excessive greed. There is a proverb in Bengali that greed is sin and death is sin. Those who are greedy in excess always have bad results.
It is. I can still remember wanting to win more after I just received the max multiplier of one slot game. I left $50 in my balance just so I could bet again but I did secure the larger part by withdrawing it quickly and cashed it out for my own local currency so I won't deposit it back.
But with the $50 left in my wallet, I really wanted to win more by just using that amount. It's greed that had been urging me to keep on betting until all of a sudden it was all depleted. It didn't even take 2 hours to finish that amount. So, I am both glad that I withdrew the larger portion and a bit frustrated that I cannot win more.
It's a bad habit, but I didn't deposit anything more after I lost that. Somehow, I can still control my greed even though there are times that I do want to repeat the same feat, but sadly it's getting harder and longer.

Good thing that you manage to withdraw big portion of your bankroll, it's a wise decision to control greed otherwise, you'll just send your winnings back to the house, which most of the time are repeatedly done by most gamblers, instead of taking that opportunity to cash out they tend to push and hope for more.

And with that kind of greed inside you, thinking that you can easily duplicate the same outcome before, you'll end up being sorry as instead of making money, you'll ends up losing it all together with your initial deposit.

Actually purpose of trading is taking profit as much possible in short term, I think take profit during has opportunity is very important for all trader and don't be greedy looking for their assets or portfolio increasing significant and right time to take profit. Currently have bad habit for trader because high expectation when investing in some coins exactly with meme coins, most of them expected with $100 capital in cryptocurrency trading huge expectation become $1000 when investing in meme coins and difficult for taking profit after having moment with increasing price above 50%.

Most traders who played and take the risk investing with Meme coins or alt asset that they believed that will bring them fortune, most of the time out greed instead of taking profits and being contented with the profits that they should take, they push and hope for more, when downfall happen they are the one who quickly sell and lose portion of their money.

Like what you mentioned, the purpose of trading is for you to take your profits and not to lose it, take profits whenever you have your chance the risk you take should be paid by profits that you take.

Fatal mistake when delaying for taking profit did by some trader, as soon possible has moment after price increase don't be late for taking profit behind many bad news and unpredictable happening will make price dropping again make us loss great opportunity taking profit. Better getting profit with small percentage but consistency than bigger expectation to earn much profit but its very difficult.

This is something that needed to learn and study, do your DYOR and make things in a timely manner, profits even how small it is but if you manage to increased your initial deposit that's still good in terms of trading.
