Well, Pacquiao is now in his forties. Though many are somewhat skeptical of a Pacquiao win, much more are confident that he might be able to beat the guy. There are more better fighters suited for Pacquiao but he settles to his fighter who is hardly known by many Filipinos. But of course the fight has been sealed and I would feel that it might be a Pacquiao win. We will see, August is not that far away. It is almost June now and time flies very fast nowadays.

Let us not talk about his age, he beat Thurman which is a young guy, that alone tells us that his age is just his number. Maybe if he can't make it to this fight, then that's that time we will talk about his age.

As I wrote earlier, given the seriousness of the intermediate opponents, the discussed fight is becoming less and less likely. But I cannot say that I am upset - in the end, these fights will take place earlier than in August (I do not like to wait) and they will be no less interesting (especially Wilder's revanche against Fury).
With the pandemic is still with us, it's hard to be sure if the fight would really happen, we've seen a lot of announcing fights, like the big ones but they did not happen. Maybe this time promoters really are struggling to race money for the fight, they just want to make sure that if the fight will happen, they'll be able to make it a profitable fight and could maximize it as we never know if there will be a rematch going to happen.

With the huge purse demanded by both sides, it's not an easy job for the promoters here.

I will bet them - I just offered you if you are brave enough to bet against me.

Woah, this is hot. I think this is going to add some heat on this thread if there are bets like this. I'm not interested though but there could be some folks there who would like to bet against spartaneca.

It's exciting if there are such bets like to watch for although I'm not the one who's going to bet.  Tongue

I am just trying to get the series little bit more interesting.  As of Bucks and Heat - I think Millwaukee has written the homework from last year and will give Miami zero chance. It would be probably a gentleman sweep

That's unlikely, they might win this time but a sweep will never happen. It's been a successive playoff where they have some problem since their opponent just needs to minimize Giannis and boom! their team struggle, hopefully, we will not see that again this time.
3464  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence Jr on Aug 21 in Vegas on: May 22, 2021, 01:18:08 PM
Finally, Pacquiao gets the best opponent, is the amount or purse already revealed?

No more speculation because it's final according to OP, the word "signed" means it's already finalized and they are bind into a contract legally.
Hopefully, this would not be like a Fury vs Joshua fight which was already signed but was delayed or canceled.

This is probably the biggest fight of Spence Jr., the undefeated record is at stake here but will be a privilege to fight the legend in the sport.

One and only game tomorrow.

Warriors vs Grizzlies +4.5.. Anyone betting on the Warriors @-4.5?
I like to hear your thoughts on this game, what about this one?

https://sportsbet.io/sports/event/basketball/usa/nba/golden-state-warriors-memphis-grizzlies-60a603b66b3bc080bd9dddfb

If there was a fatigue impact I would say maybe grizzlies have a chance because Warriors look a taaad bit older and would have hard time, but there is none so I am not sure. Warriors and grizzlies finished within 1 game of each other so they are a very close team, I do not think that one is better than the other. Obviously people see Curry and think that Warriors are better but that is hardly the truth, Curry is the reason why they are even one game within grizzlies, normally without curry warriors... well we saw what they did previous year.

So, I believe it will be a very close game, 4.5+ points do matter a bit, because Grizz won against Spurs with just 4 points and Warriors lost to Lakers with just 3 points, that is why they do look like team that may face up very close. I would still say Warriors, they seem to be on a good roll right now.

Nice explanation mate, Grizzlies does not only cover, but they also win the game straight up, congratulations if you bet on them.
Also, it's funny that the over prop bet hit, Curry finishes the game with 39 points and the line is 38.5.

Grizzlies maybe lucky against the Warriors but I have a feeling they will not be lucky against the Jazz.

Bucks vs Heat is too early in my timezone, I need to be awake too early in the morning in order to watch this game.

Based on their Head to head record, Bucks won 2 out of the 3 meetings.

3467  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: BTC price VS gambling on: May 22, 2021, 11:54:29 AM

Even if the bitcoin price is down to $39k, it is still not better to use bitcoin to gamble because the price can increase anytime.

For me that's wrong, if you think that way, then better not gamble using bitcoin, just use stable coins so you will not worry whether the price will fall or increase. Thing is, we are gambling not investing, so the volatility of bitcoin should never affect us because if it does, it will not make us focus in our main purpose, which is gambling

If you need to make precise calculation of how much you won or lost in dollars, then i think its better to gamble using stable coins because that way you will not be worried about the prices of bitcoin. However, do every gambling site give us option to gamble in USDT or stable coins ? I guess No.

Well, if you gamble with BTC, you should not convert it in dollars until you cash it out. About USDT, there are already gambling sites that accepts USDT and it's not really a problem if one will use that in gambling. I know one of the sites that accept USDT, here check. https://www.cloudbet.com/en/
3468  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Money flowing out of BTC into Altcoins on: May 21, 2021, 12:22:11 PM
it is true, before entering the alt season, bitcoin must go down first, taking a break from domination in crypto. If bitcoin doesn't go down it will be difficult to realize the alt season because of its strong dominance, it will have to go down and stay at its lowest point for some time.
What I saw is that when bitcoin go down, altcoins will also go down, that's what we called market panic where every altcoins are affected by the bad performance of bitcoin. Just recently, bitcoin dump at $30k, did you see what happened to the altcoins market, they also dump, and bigger dump compared to bitcoin.

What made altcoins bullish is when bitcoin is stable and it's not so volatile.

Let's observe the market now, bitcoin seem to be recovering let's see if altcoins will follow.
BTW, after the dump, BTC dominance has increased to 43%.

That's easy to say, mate, everyone is given an opportunity in trading but not everyone is expected to succeed.

Cryptocurrency is a currency that is not pigged in the economy of a certain country, so if you are smart, you'll make money here even if you are living in a 3rd world country, and the good thing is that living in such a country is not expensive so you'll enjoy a decent life.

Hopefully they'll realized soon and they are also willing to take the risk as crypto investing or trading is only for risk takers.
3471  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: May 21, 2021, 05:27:34 AM
That's a trivia thanks. That's why I think Yeng Guiao has given a good signal.

Jericho Cruz already played for Guam last year so it's not really that Yeng Guiao gives him a signal but that was necessary.

Guam's next qualifying game will be next month against Hong Kong and since the PBA restart doesn't finalize yet, there will be no problem if Cruz will play overseas in the meantime. If only the earlier FIBA scheduled was followed, on which Guam will face Hong Kong last February instead, there will be no conflict for Cruz schedule if PBA will restart next month.

There's no final schedule yet but PBA teams are now starting their training, so it's most likely that PBA will start next month. Well, Cruz could have a different training as he is playing with the Guam team and if he will come back during the PBA season, he is still fit anyway.

Coach Yeng would not make a decision that would result in the team struggling next season.
3472  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: May 20, 2021, 09:58:27 PM
Does Jericho Cruz have a fan here guys? He's got a go signal from Yeng Guiao that he's okay to fly to Guam and play for the national team for the Fiba Asia Qualifiers. Although we know that the national team of Guam isn't that strong but at least they're sourcing a player from our country to play for their national team which is really a thing to be proud of.
(https://www.spin.ph/basketball/pba/jericho-cruz-could-miss-pba-games-for-nlex-due-to-guam-commitment-a795-20210517)

I'm a big fan of this guy, so you are saying that he is an import of the team? I think he is a full-blooded Filipino so he would not be there to represent the county, maybe they plan to make him a naturalized player?

Jericho Cruz is a full-bloodied Filipino but he has three nationality which is Filipino, Guamanian and Northern Mariana Islander. This only means that he can play on these three countries wherever his services is needed. He did not play in the Philippines as we have a lot of guards in our country while in Guam, his talent is much needed there as they lack players as basketball is not popular in Guam.

He is not an import or a naturalized player but played as a local.

That's a trivia thanks. That's why I think Yeng Guiao has given a good signal. At least if there are opportunities like this, he's not that too selfish not to give that to his players. I'm sure that he's going to put his best to put up the team of Guam but for us, we'll always stay to our national team and the support that's needed to be given. But whenever our kababayan is playing on any other national team, we're also supporting them but it becomes least priority.  Tongue

Because he understands that players are looking for better opportunities, and he understands how SMB and Pangilinan control the PBA.  He is a very vocal coach and I think he likes Jericho a lot and believes in him so he gives him an opportunity to showcase his talent abroad. With that being said, he also understands what his team can do only and it's not as good as the SMB teams.

The price for such project could be 1 billion marketcap in the bull market. So it will make the stc price around $0.16.
( 1 billion marketcap / 6 billion coin in circulation = $0.16 )

There's no question about that as they are capable due to their good liquidity.
Listed in Kucoin, that gives them more liquidity and I'm seeing the success of this coin.

0.16 per STC is just a minimum IMO, it can reach $1 if the team continues to impress the investors.
If DOGE with 129 billion circulating supply almost reach $1, then nothing is impossible with STC.

Maybe Binance listing next?

@JollyGood, if this Wilder vs Fury III is already final, then it's good. At least the conversation will be over soon and we will know who really is the better between the two, especially Wilder who still cannot accept his defeat in the last fight. They need to start training now so no excuses when the fight night will come, and for them to give an entertaining fight, but nothing is more entertaining than Wilder getting KO'd again.
3475  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casimero vs Rigondeaux this August 14, 2021 on: May 20, 2021, 02:17:09 PM
who do you think will win?
I once watched Rigondeaux while betting on the 2013 world champions, I'm sure Casimero vs. Rigondeaux, Casimero is in no rush to conclude. Believe it or not, this time Casimero must admit that his opponent cannot be underestimated.

However I am heavier this round of medals will be brought home by Rigondeaux, but everything can change outside of our minds, this is just my belief.

This ain't no Olympics anymore, I think it's different in a professional fight and though I respect Rigondeaux as a boxer but this time, I believe the younger champion will come out victorious. What I don't like is that Casimero seems to be underestimating Rigondeaux which is not good IMO.
3476  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto has become the rich man's playground... on: May 20, 2021, 12:45:24 PM
Not all people in the crypto world are rich, there are still some people who already been so many years in the world crypto but have nothing in his life, it is all about how you will going to use your knowledge in cryptocurrency. I agree on you about some richest man are playing cryptocurrencies or playing the market, just like what some popular persons who have been so trend because of doing weird things in the market, just like what Elon Musk is doing, he is really manipulating the market, which really makes the market in the dip.

When we say rich, these are people who are smartly making money in crypto, yes, they are rich and they have the power to manipulate the market. It's a complete package if you are rich and popular at the same time, with that, making money is easy for you, one good example is Elon Musk.
3477  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Student Coin Speculation/Discussion Thread on: May 20, 2021, 12:14:36 PM
One thing I love about STC is it can be traded from both ETH and WAVES chain. The founders are so clever that they continued the ICO while the market is approaching altcoin season again.
The price of STC is slowly increasing again and I hope that there will be another major announcement that can bring the price of STC to go back again to the above ico price. The team is really active in the group.
The bitcoin is only reason why the price of STC gets dump. I think that people are not using STC waves again. IT's clearly stated that so many people have swapped their STC to the STC v2.
STC waves is outdated coin.

That's good, and better because their volume is still stable. I heard that they will release the bounty soon but I admire their strategy as they let their bounty hunters choose to receive either in STC or ETH, and this would help the coin to not dump as most might choose ETH as a reward.
3478  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Shall I HODL DOGE? on: May 20, 2021, 11:51:51 AM
If I were you I will do hodl that dogecoin knowing that there are plenty of social media influencers, millionaires and billionaires like Elon Musk whose shilling this coin and we have seen a very promising pump of dogecoin lately so I think that there is a high potential for dogecoin to reach a minimum of a dollar this market cycle.

For what? you will still hold it when you see a good price.

If you are still in profit despite the dump of DOGE, I think the best thing to do is to sell it and take profit.
I will never trust DOGE that is shill by Elon, the price will rise but it will not be permanent, eventually, it will dump and if you will not sell at the right timing, you'll definitely become one of the bag holders.
3479  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: May 19, 2021, 12:28:19 PM
Like all of us here, I'm also excited to watch PBA. On the other hand though, SMC teams got stronger but did MVP teams got stronger too and can they compete with the SMC teams with their current rosters?? Hmmm.

With the arrival of coach Chot Reyes, TNT for sure will improved this coming season and i think this gonna be the start of rebuilding on this team. Whatever the shortcomings after the season i think they will focus on that one to improve.

On the other hand, SMC teams, specifically the Ginebra Kings will not be the automatic champion with the arrival of CStand. Remember when he was drafted by SMB, all of us thought that other teams were only competing for the second place as majority of us think that SMB is the automatic champion as the Fajardo-Standhardinger tandem is so strong on paper but it did not convert on the court.
When Coach Chot is on the TNT back in the years, the team is just simply unstoppable. I like how he is coaching his players both in TNT and in Gilas when he is still a coach so overall, we can say that TNT had some improvements too with their coach. I just hope that Williams can fulfill what Ray Parks left in the team.

With Ginebra getting CStand, they hype towards them increased and many speculated immediately that they will be winning the championship this season (including me at first but not now). The ball is round. If you are speculating this early that they will win the championship, just remember the Kobe-Nash-Dwight trio in Lakers or the Russ-PG-Melo in Thunder. They didn't worked that good. Tt might happen too with Ginebra but on the other hand, they have a good and experienced coach too in Coach Tim Cone. Lets just wait for the season to start and lets enjoy every game Smiley

Right, I believe he is the best coach of the TNT from the time I start watching PBA and the time he retires.

His record speaks of itself.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chot_Reyes
Quote
8× PBA champion (1993 All-Filipino, 1994 Commissioner's, 2002 All-Filipino, 2003 Reinforced, 2009 Philippine, 2011 Philippine, 2011 Commissioner's, 2012 Philippine)
5× PBA Coach of the Year (1993, 2002, 2003, 2009, 2011)
7× PBA All-Star Game Head Coach (1994, 2009, 2011, 2013, 2014, 2017, 2018)

5x coach of the year, that's big, I don't know if its all TNT but winning that award is a huge achievement as a coach.
3480  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bull run is over? on: May 19, 2021, 12:03:24 PM
Bull run may seem to over but  good fundermentals is still there for coin like bitcoin, ether etc. It is important to set your entry and exit  price way in adavance before market action be it positive or otherwose! Bull will still be felt by coin that hold values like paxgold, bitcoin and a new gold based cryptocurrency like MWG!
I don't see it ending yet. It's a big correction that cut a huge percentage from the high that we've seen first to bitcoin and other altcoins too. Although, I agree that the fundamentals that have been achieved can't easily be removed even if we're going to the bear market already.
But all of these are speculations and if we see the market don't recover anymore or if it recovers and that's only a bit, that doesn't mean that we're already out of the bear.
A correction that could lead to a bear market, bitcoin is heavily dumped now, this is the kind of scenario I've seen in the past and I think we are already here and bull run is really over. Well, it's been 6 months I guess that the market is bullish, so it's just correct to see a correction since it's already due.
