I'm looking at GSW vs Dallas, I'm going on GSW here at (-4.5), if Curry exploded with 40++ points in this game I think they can covered the spread. Dallas is also on a back to back games, they've lost a tough one against the Kings last night.
Sadly, you lose this one bro.
I was also looking forward for the Warriors to win that game to be safer at the 8th spot.
Curry was doubled every time he handles the ball. He can't make that explosion he use to do whenever his running off the ball.
Dallas Mavericks also need that win after a bad loss against the Kings.
GSW won only with assists but had a very low percentage in shooting. They ended the 1st quarter with just 12 points and 29 at the half. That's the worse performance ever this season.

Yes, I wasn't able to watch the full games, just a glimpse of the 1st quarter wherein the Mavericks already built a huge lead that they didn't let go. And I was looking for Curry, but he can't even touch the ball in the 1st quarter alone so I said that it will be a very difficult task for the Warriors to overcome that huge lead and that's what happen here. Good bounce from Dallas after losing a game against the Kings.

Another good result for Sinner, remember guys he is only 19.
What do you think about him? Can he be the next top player? Can he reach the top 5 positions or even more?

Federer started to win slams at 22yo.

Of course, the kid has a good future ahead of him, 19 years old and yet reaching semis and finals and winning some along the way.

There's this Serbia Open that just concluded, Karatsev vs Berrettini. Karatsev again upset Djokovic to reach the finals, however, Berrettini really played superb in the finals specially in the last set, winning 1-6, 6-3, 6-7. I had my money on Karatsev, he was the early betting odds favourite, unfortunately he lost the match.

I had some doubts that the Celtics will cover that huge spread, but no way in hell i could see them losing by 21 points, Hornets won all four quarters. lol

By the way, these two teams could meet in the first round of the playoffs or the play-in, it won't be easy for the Celtics, as LaMelo is expected to return soon for CHA.

Anyway, decent week, can't really complain, i should be back around Tuesday with my picks, gl everyone!
Didn't expect that too. Celtics losing that bad just when they had a healthy roster.
This saved me though.

Now waiting for the Warriors to win the game to take a little profit. Very close game and I need -7.5 to win it. I may have took the bet too early.
There's still the fourth quarter though and I wish I could see a red hot Steph Curry to end it with a blowout game.

I have them at -6.5 and yet Golden State wasn't able to cover the spread for us. Steph has his usual 30+ points per games, but Barnes, Haliburton and Hield combined for 72 points to somewhat bring the game very close.

And another bad luck for me as my parlay was affected by the Bucks lost, last time it was the Utah that derailed everything on my end.

What a harsh defeat for 76ers but without Embiid it was something to expect from this game especially that Giannis had a great game with more than 25 points. Regarding Lakers , don't worry as this team will reach the finals in a way or another but I still have big doubts that they can win it again just because Nets is looking way more solid than them.

It was expected for Giannis to take advantage of the Sixers without Joel Embiid.

I think the Sixers really try to make the game close up to the 3rd quarter when the Bucks really put the gas on the pedal, like 20++ runs.

Everyone is happy again riding New Yorks incredible run, Randall is really playing solid and leading the team. Rose did great, that cross over on Siakal reminds us on how Rose was during his prime years at Chicago Bulls, sick handles and ankle breaker.
3685  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Ryan Garcia vs Javier Fortuna WBC interim lightweight Title on: April 25, 2021, 03:56:20 AM
And I would say that probably in the young life of Garcia, he doesn't know how to deal with this big pressures in his life.

Success comes to early in his life and the pressure is just mounting he really needs to take a break and needs a professional help to help him go through this important phase in his life, Garcia can take this he needs a personal coach that will make him more realistic in his goal, imagine at a very young age he has a lot of goals some of them are hard to attain.

Yeah, this could be the main reason why we are all surprise to see a young and successful Garcia having this kind of mental issues. I guess this is the perks of being famous and then you can't cope with your successes that you will anxious all the time and as if someone is trying to control your life.

Wish him the best though, and hope that we will see him back fighting again.

So we don't know if the promoters are going to find a replacement so that Fortuna can still continue and fight this July.

I got a good win ML on the underdog San Antonio Spurs:



I expected that NOP are going to fall short against a good team and that's what happen. Good win for the New York Knicks again, they are not the hottest team and for sure everyone what's a crack at team and stop that winning streak.

Too bad that Utah Jazz will lost against the struggling T'wolves. I had a parlay and just waiting for the Jazz to win to complete my multi-bet, unfortunately, they went cold in the 3rd quarter and T'wolves takes advantage of it and pull a good lead. Although Jazz come back and take a one point lead, after that T'wolves scores the last 6.

The Bitcoin correction made it clear to everyone that no coin can survive during the Bitcoin correction. It doesn't matter who promotes some coin. Dogecoin has shown one of the largest drops in this correction, so be aware of these scenarios whenever you will buy something on the highs.

True because everyone is still under the pairing of BTC, that's why every crypto is affected, regardless if you have been shilled by Elon Musk or not.

I'm sure Doge investors though or at least those who rode the hype still thinks that the price will still rebound and get to at least $1.00. It's going to be a long road for Doge, currently pegged at $0.25. It needs more hype again to break into the $1.00 barrier.  Smiley

Dan Pena said in an interview which was being uploaded on tiktok that he knows who is behind or the founder of bitcoin. He then said that if people know who is behind bitcoin then bitcoin will going down to zero. He also state that a bitcoin user could not literally sleep well at night due to market instability and security. I posted the link below guys. What do you think?

https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSJBP8faQ/

Nah, I don't think that bitcoin will literally go to 0 even if Satoshi shows up or not.

And really? using tiktok to bring his message across? I think that platform is for kinds only. Well I can sleep well into the night and I think majority does, so that argument is very flawed in he beginning. You really love those people around though, creating Fud when bitcoin is going down.
3689  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Cotto vs Marquez - Exhibition match on: April 24, 2021, 09:01:41 AM
If the fight had lasted until the last round I have no doubts that Manny would have won as he was in a way better physical shape than Marquez before he received that punch, but we know that in boxing anything can happen which is why it is so exciting to watch, but I will still argue that it was not a lucky punch, there is simply too much evidence against that idea, Marquez was able to even KO his sparrings while training that punch so to me it was a strategy that he used to lure Manny in and deliver a fantastic KO.
It wasnt really a lucky punch and its just an excuse or some reasoning that it was indeed a fluke but its not because Marquez wont really be reaching out  his reputation,fame and popularity
if he doesnt have its own weapon or something up into his sleeve then he wont go that far into his boxing career.
Okay lets move on about those past fights and stick into this exhibition which is no doubt that performance will be entirely different compared when they are still into their prime.
Im not expecting that much that they would really be giving out their best on knocking out each other.
OK lets move on, this exhibition fight is going to be really interesting as  it is a fight between two former world champions that are not so far away from their retirement, the only thing I am worried is about Cotto, he is a good fighter but when he fought Margarito he suffered a lot of damage due to Margarito cheating with loaded gloves and that is the kind of damage that does not go away so I hope he is not putting his quality of life at risk by accepting this fight.
Forget about that Margarito fight, he knows he got cheated and he avenge his loss by beating Margarito in their rematch 3 years after he loss, there's no damage anymore on him, he is retired happy and the good news is that he is coming back for an exhibition fight.

Yeah, I think everyone knows that Margarito has plaster of paris that's why the damage in Cotto's face is very different from what he got in the second fight. And I would say that Margarito is guilty of it and then Manny Pacquiao give him what he deserves, broken orbital bone and he was never been the same.

As for this match, I can't pick because they are legends. But I would say that Cotto will have a slight advantage against Marquez here. And we all know that this is just an exhibition though, friendly fight for this two great boxers of our generations.

with playoffs getting closer and closer, I think the lakers management and coaching staff should play LeBron and Davis in the playoffs there is no need for them to rush to play in the regular season maybe 5-10 minutes of play should if they insist they want to play although I think they will contest it, they should think about the championship, not the regular season, they will be frustrated with it but they will benefit a lot,

For sure they wanted to get the two play together before the play-offs. It is a good gauge for the Lakers to see how the team will fit and play out once their superstars are back into action 100%.

Warriors with a big win today against the Nuggets, Curry started his scoring again with 32 points. They've lost to Wizards, which is a game that I think they should have won. But at least they are back in the win column again.
3691  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin now officially in Bear-Market: -20% down - Dropping like a Rock on: April 24, 2021, 01:25:02 AM
Now BTC is at $51k, its was up to $65k on some exchanges, $54k is -20%, so now we're at -25%
A sustained down of -20% is the legal definition of "Bear Market" get over it. Live with it. Sure HODL on or buy more, hell buy the falling knife, sell your house and car, and buy BTC on the way down,

In bitcoin a 25% drop is a legal definition of a correction. Corrections are super healthy. If they maybe damage your health that means you are over invested and you should sell a bit at any price.

And with that, we have seen -20% drop or even more in January and February.

So what makes this drop so special that people are shouting as if it is the end of the bull run?

It seems that this has been sensationalised as if he has the crystal ball to see the future. He just caused panic for most newbies here (and I think that is his intention). Nevertheless I'm not affected by the drop, on the contrary it will be the next big thing to happen again as we can buy cheap bitcoin again.
3692  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will never go below $50,000 again on: April 23, 2021, 10:44:10 AM
...And this is why one should never say never.
It's just 9 days since the starting post and we're already under 50k.
OP, I have a feeling that you've jinxed it  Grin

I'm not worried though. There are quite a number of companies and entities that just love to buy the dip.

Lol, he probably did, we are now trading at $48k-$49k. And we are back to the price in February if I'm not mistaken. But in any case, yes, this is another golden opportunity to pick up and buy bitcoin at a discount again.

No one to wait for like $20k, like what someone has been spreading in this community for the last couple of days. Buy as much as you can at this price and then hold, simply as that.
3693  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Learn to laugh even if Bitcoin is crashing on: April 23, 2021, 09:58:15 AM
Everyone who is conversant with the price movement of bitcoin over the years would understand that this crash is nothing to worry about especially if you're a hodler. I think the only people who might lose some money are traders who are actively trading.

Yes, but since the market is open, you will see a lot of doom sayers or totally anti bitcoin like Peter Schiff. And since we are going down, he is on the offensive against Pomp because they have been in twitter wars for years.

However, for many of us who are hodlers, there's absolutely nothing to worry about. As long as you don't sell your coins, bitcoin will eventually rise again and you'd make your profits. Intact, it is advisable to buy bitcoin now that the price is low.

That's why we have those weak hands and strong hands. You can make your choice.
3694  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tennis League All Thread on: April 23, 2021, 09:20:39 AM
Good games from the favorites, I think Nadal, Tsitsipas, Schwartzman and Rublev will wins an come to the semi-finals in my opinion. Tsitsipas will still be buoyant and confident with the win in Monte Carlo. Tomorrow will be an exciting day in the quarterfinals.
Certainly many will think that Nadal will be easy to advance to semifinals but if you look at the previous two matches, Nadal had to fight hard enough to win, these two matches had to go through in 3 sets, so in this tournament Nadal was not as superior as people thought if playing on clay.
The match between Sinner vs Rublev will be very interesting to follow, it's hard to predict who will win.

It's because players have been improving as well or Nadal has lost some of his touch in clay because he is getting older. Against Corrie, I think he can advance to the semi-finals.

But yes, I think the match between Sinner and Rublev is not that easy to predict. What's interesting is that Rublev is now the slight underdog in this match.
3695  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: April 23, 2021, 08:53:43 AM
No Jayson Tatum, No Kemba Walker, No Jaylen Brown, Celtics will be too easy to handle for the Phoenix Suns.

On their first meeting, Sunx able to hold Celtics with a 10 point lead with Tatum and Kemba on board.

Don't risk for Moneyline with them.
Tatum and Walker played. Celtics at lead now with 10 points.
I don't think this will go the Suns way.
That's the problem with news they provide before the game. They put players in questionable status while they are totally healthy.
Celtics might win this one with Kemba on fire.

Mavs vs Lakers later. Don't miss it. A must win for the Mavs team so this game might go crazy tight.
Regarding the Mavs vs Lakers, will Anthony Davis suited up for this game? Reports are circulating that he might be playing tonight.

Yeah, Celtics already won by 13 points. Hope someone won because they are a underdog here.

Anthony Davis played a little but not well. Not very encouraging but nice to see him out there. The game is ending as I type this. A good ending so far, especially the part Montrez Harrell got hit in the face with the ball on a pass from Dennis Schroeder. Looks like Luka Doncic is going to bring home the win for the Dallas Mavericks though.

We should never expect a big game from Anthony Davis after coming back from an injury. I think the Lakers are going to to play him limited minutes for the first few games and he how Davis body will respond.

I like the intensity of Boston in their games against the Suns. The problem is that they are very inconsistent. They should really play very hard day in day out, they are capable of wining big games against highly touted teams.
3696  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Manny Pacquiao offered $10 million to fight Terence Crawford on: April 22, 2021, 09:54:24 AM
Well I'm sure we all do hope that the fight will push through this year, we have been wanting to see Manny fight again. Unfortunately, we haven't heard anything from both sides specially Arum or Crawford, it seems that there are black out news as far as this fight goes.

So it's either they are still talking behind, back and forth negotiations or the fight has died down.
I think that they are still negotiating the terms, and I think the reason for not yet going public is that they might want to make sure that every details is ironed out for both sides, I would love to see a fight and I hope that this is going to be a bloodbath because recent Pacman fights aren't as bloody as back when he was fighting against Morales, Cotto, Marquez and other past fights.

Not sure but after he claimed himself Christian he started to fight softly.

I missed those early years where you'll see him really eager to KO he's opponent,
those years where you can't see where he's punch coming it just went in the face of the other fighter.

Looking forward to see the final verdict of this fight, stop the boring talk just complete the negotiation and start everything.

They need some boring talk first before they go down to serious business. Arum is already old, but makes no mistake about it, this dude can still play mind games and tricks on Manny, so they better be ready, just saying.

I'm still looking for this fight to happen this year, before we can see Manny finally retiring. Crawford will be a big test for him. If he win, then maybe he still has one more fight for him. But if he lost, maybe it's time for him to say it quit.

Cheering for the coins you have invested to suddenly grow?

Of course, people wanted to have a quick buck, 10%-20% in major exchanges should be the goal of investors. However, if the coins doesn't do that good then obviously you will feel disheartened by the results. Because you thought that it has good potential then suddenly the pump and dump group sold already. So just be careful for this shill coins in this community, it might not give you the profits that you are expecting.
3698  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: April 22, 2021, 08:54:31 AM
^^, Yeah, that's why I don't bet against them, I have them at handicapped (-1.5)@1.85 odds. Not bad, they are really the hottest team right now and now matter who you put in front of them, they will find a way to win that game.

Disappointed with GSW though, seems that they are coasting in the last 5 minutes with 10 point lead. No defence, and then they've cooled off from the 3 point area allowing Westbrook and Beal to snatch this win from them.

Randall is really playing live there's no tomorrow, Lol, and he is willing to grind day in day out to get a win. They've beaten a lot of good teams lately, and they are always the underdog. So if you bet on team, for sure it will have given you a good returns so far.

As for Golden State vs Wizards, I think they've played good defense on Curry, Steph seems to be off this night and missing 3's that he should have made.
3699  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: My plan - 20k to 500k on: April 22, 2021, 08:38:42 AM
I have protofilo with 10k that I plan to make 20k with my altcoins within few months. After few months bitcoin will drops to 20k and I will buy with my Balance 1 btc.
Within few years bitcoin will reach 500k and I will be rich selling btc for 500k.

Only thing that I've noticed is that you are wishing for something to happen to btc to drop at $20k. I don't know, but for me it won't happen again. This is the problem with most investors though, they didn't put a realistic target, or a goal that is contrary to reason, so preposterous that you think it will happen.

Probably bitcoin will reach $500k first before it hits $20k this year, just saying.

Alt season in April? seems it's not yet about to happen but hopefully your prediction will happen in the next Month but if not I don't think if you can still hold your ethereum just to wait to increase 200% . While you are holding ethereum you better find a potential project that possible you can make x10 profit in the future just dyor..

I think altcoin market is really taking off with the huge pump on Dogecoin again, and Ethereum and Binance and ADA and DOT also making their new all time high this year so it's all good. Plus the dominance of bitcoin is shrinking, indication that altcoin market is taking a piece of the slice again.

Finding x10 might be difficult, because you never really know what coins are going to be pump by the next market manipulators. Maybe some lower coins are going to be the next target by pump and dump groups for all we know. So we need to be very vigilant and see what happens next.
