Here are some knockdown highlights of Kavaliauskas https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P17KnKcXMbc which I do see this guy can really give a fight.

Thanks for the vid, I thought I was watching a slow mo.. lol.. just kidding.
But seriously, he has the power but I don't see the speed in this fight, also his defense is not so impressive so this would either be an early knockdown from whoever wins but most likely the champ, so let's see.
3802  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Errol Spence Jr. Vs Manny Pacquiao on: October 24, 2019, 11:11:19 PM
I guess we have to wait for the Spence vs Pacquaio.

As the Errol Spence vs. Danny Garcia Tabbed as Mandatory By WBC.

This is going to be explosive fight and I think this is the second best fight behind Spence vs Pacquiao. So let's see how it goes, I think the winner here will have a date with Pacquiao mid next year.

I had spence winning against Garcia, and I like to see him fight Manny next but I can't wait so I think if Manny and Mayweather will finally agree on a rematch, we might see them early next year. What I just like to see is an explosive fight of Manny, so it could either be spence or Mayweather, after that he can retire if he wants, fans will be satisfied already if any of that fight will happen.

This is a lesson learned from all of us, borrowing money from others is not good just to gamble. Playing gambling is base on luck and being greedy to it is really a worse case. Just stop gambling if you cannot manage or cannot control your emotions. We must learn from our own mistakes so the next time when encounter this kind of situation we know how to deal with it.
Borrowing money just to reply on luck in gambling is bad but if you have the skills and you have proven you can be profitable then I think its alright to borrow money as you are likely doing it like you are a businessman which purpose is to be profitable.

The case of OP is that he gambled in dice which we know its purely based on luck, which is really a bad idea for any gambler to think.

Irving has the capability to maintain that record and I think this was his best factor to become one of the strong pillar of the team.
Maintaining that record is difficult, maybe its more realistic if we expect from him to average at least 25 ppg this season since Durant will not play this season.

On side of Kevin Durant, he put much effort for the team from their previous games which always considered their core strength in meeting their every goals. His recovery stage, somehow crack down one of the best asset for them but its not yet done because this is now time to unleash their strongest line up of the game.
When Durant will be back, Nets will improve as a team but we will not likely see him this season but we can still expect that Nets will be a playoff contender as East are weaker compared to the east in terms of competition.

I used sportsbet couple of times and there were no problems. But I found a YouTube video that is accusing sportsbet of changing bets. Maybe it was a mistake ? Any comments from Steve ?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3uKUOI3JNmE

Same good experience, I suggest that you just disregard that video.
If the person who own that channel really wants to show the scam attempt of sportsbet, he would have made a thread here as there's more support he can get here provided that he has an accurate evidence to support his accusation, just remember that not every gambler can be please, there are gamblers who are satisfied with the services of sportsbet but there are others who aren't, but what matters here is our own experience.
3807  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to restrain yourself at a small loss and not spend money. on: October 22, 2019, 02:07:25 PM
It often happens that people go out to play a variety of games of chance with a certain amount of money, but in the end they spend everything if they are gone.
TBH, I was once like that during my early days in gambling but because of that mistake, I learn and I matured as I continue to gamble.

How to prevent which technique you base yourself on to spend no further.
Just be smart, when you are smart, you are not weak emotionally because you are the one controlling yourself and with proper discipline, you will be able to stop at the right time or if you needed to, whether you win or loss.

It's hard to just give up, people persistent in gambling that day, so they can't just tell themselves they'll try tomorrow. Why is this difficult? Is it because of greed?

That's because of lack of self control, it'st not greed that makes people gamble despite the fact that they are already losing a lot of money, we called that stupidity and if we don't learn to discipline ourselves, we might pay the price.
3808  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: October 22, 2019, 01:42:34 PM
Just a Game 1 though. But still, surely they will show us a close match since key players of both teams are there.

Current Moneyline odds:
LAC@2.21 / LAL@1.68 (Sportsbet)
LAC@2.26 / LAL@1.68 (NitrogenSports)
Still nice if you vote for LAC. That's Kawhi Leonard and anything can happen in basketball. And besides, even without PG the lineup is so good.

I am not going to bet on them against the Lakers with PG.
maybe we can take that discussion in the NBA betting thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5091185.1440

Anyway, thoughts on this one?

MJ on Steph Curry:

“Still a great player. Not a Hall of Famer yet, though. He’s not.”
That's a challenge of Curry, he need to take his team now to the Championship to prove the doubters, he is already a GOAT IMO, and I think he can be a hall famer as he still has a lot of games to play and every season we see some improvement.
3809  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: LiteCoin or ETHEREUM? Best Investment option. on: October 22, 2019, 01:29:45 PM
both are good buddy. and I now have both of them even though I have more ethereum in my wallet. but LTC is also a good asset and therefore I have it. although after the news halving did not have so good an impact on the LTC market, I'm sure the value of LTC could go back up. it is even possible that it will occur together with ethereum.
These are major coins that will never be left out when it comes to market improvement.
If the overall market will struggle, they are the ones who are affected pretty bad, just like bitcoin but in the event the entire market will be back to its bullish condition, we can also expect some great recovery from these coins.

Therefore, we should not panic if the price of our coins will drop as it's just all temporary, if we are patient, that's where we can enjoy the time when every coins that we invested with will recover.

Just like you said, it's his first game in a beerman uniform and he did not show his quality. I am not a fan of Tautua and I can see he cannot perform well in his new team because it is packed with with talents.

Scoring 10 point in less than 20 minutes is not bad for a new comer in the SMB team and besides the coaching staff do not expect too much from him as he will serve as a reliever to JMF if the latter is in foul trouble or having an off night.
That's a very bad role for a former number 1 pick, if he will remain in the SMB, he might become a champion but he cannot make his own name or his own legacy.

But I hope he can do even more than that on his next play times, well let's find out tonight Grin.

It's not tonight, it would be tomorrow bro.
it's fun to watch, C stand vs fajardo or C stand vs Tautua .. either of this match up would surely make this game interesting.
I don't really like northport line up but with C stand now, I think they will improve.
3811  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling as a profession: there's people who live out of gambling? on: October 22, 2019, 12:37:02 PM
Probably there are some gamblers out there who makes gambling their living already but the capital that they need is huge for sure.
It won't matter if you start small or big as long you are consistent in your betting strategy.
if you keep winning, making a living in gambling is never a problem, and actually that's every gamblers dream but that dream are not mean for everyone.
Even me, I already accepted that making a living in gambling for me is just too hard, but I have to try but not so aggressive.
3812  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 Governor's Cup betting and discussion on: October 21, 2019, 12:44:21 PM
Are we going to see stand and tautua in their first game with different uniforms here?
I also think we are underestimating too much the Northport, if Stand will play, I'll bet a little on the ML north port.
No, Tautua already made his debut game in SMB last night against Columbian Dyip. Thougts? Hmm, he is ineffective. He sometimes lost in his right position and struggling to get offensive rebounds compared than Abay. Well it was just his first game, there are still plenty of games for him to get back and their fight this upcoming Wednesday is the best time for it Smiley.
Sorry, I missed that because I did not see the game  Embarrassed
Maybe there's a big difference now as Mo is not going to be a starter, right?

Mo was not effective with the TNT that's why he was shifted to the Northport and I think in SMB, he will struggle.
You might also be right as that's just the first game, there's always an adjustment.
3813  Economy / Economics / Re: Crypto Scams are a global issue on: October 21, 2019, 12:20:17 PM
Scam happen not only in crypto but everywhere where money is and different industries. This might also hinder the growth of adoption, this is a big challenge that crypto industry is facing right now specially that its new to many. The very first to step to battle this issue is by educating ourselves to avoid ignorance of the scheme that perpetrators might used against us and to new users.
And we know that the only solution to this is through regulation, however, not everyone are in favor of market regulation as this market will never be as anonymous as we expect. Of course when there's already a regulation, we need to also adopt with the rules of the government which basic requirement is KYC.
3814  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 Governor's Cup betting and discussion on: October 21, 2019, 11:56:35 AM

Let's move on, recent games have been amazing, but there are more amazing and exciting upcoming games like coming on wednesday which is on first game; Rain Or Shine vs. Blackwater Elite and second game; San Miguel Beermen vs Northport Batang Pier.

ROS vs. BLACKWATER: I'm going with ROS right now, for sure they will come back stronger after their lost on Alaska Aces and Phoenix, they are really eager to win for sure.
ROS is a legit team, they have a better local line up compared to the Blackwater, however, I will skip on this game, both team badly needs a win here.
I think if I have to bet, I will go with the total and will be under.

And SMB vs Northport; I'm going with SMB, their import import is totally beast!

Are we going to see stand and tautua in their first game with different uniforms here?
I also think we are underestimating too much the Northport, if Stand will play, I'll bet a little on the ML north port.
3815  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: October 21, 2019, 08:24:17 AM
But if he can turn those excess weight of him and be muscular, he can be more athletic and then physical. That would be scary.

I think you guys are making over discussion about zion.
His team will play in the opening of the regular season and he will miss that time.
There is no timetable yet of his comeback but this is not a good start for the Pelicans.

They will be playing against the depending champ and without him, I am not expecting a win from his team.

Not at all Bud,
Lately, I've not been following the NBA pretty well enough (I got school final project having me all engaged), I only take a few minutes to make one or two bets mostly on Over/Under because I wasn't always sure who to go with since I'm outdated on who's got who and who's in or out... I even had to google the "Lebron's china comments saga" out just today, after reading someone's (yours I think) post here on the thread.

All that being said, I already took a parlay small bet on Philly and New York Knicks' matches, I went with Over 211.5 and Under 237.5 respectively.


I'll be going with your picks to as another parlay.

Good luck!

Unlucky parlay.  anyway, the preseason is over and in 2 days we will witness the start of the regular season.



We have 2 games in the opening and the Clippers and the Lakers is the best match up that I like to see.
I wanna hear some comments regarding your opinion on the line,.

per my sportsbook, Lakers is -2.5 on the road since P. Beverley and PG are not playing.

Can the lakers take advantage to that?

3817  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 Governor's Cup betting and discussion on: October 21, 2019, 07:45:39 AM

This game yesterday was really awful, since I watched this from 1st half until end of the 4th quarter. COLUMBIAN has the team work, especially the local players, they are not totally relying on their import, unlike on San Miguel Beermen.
For me, they lost the momentum on last quarter especially when J. Corpuz got fragrant foul and out for 3minutes (when 3 minutes left on the 4th quarter) after that, multiple turnovers and mistake made by the COLUMBIAN Dyip.
They can't cope up with the Beermen the whole game. Yes they dominated the majority of the game but their import is tired already defending JMF and fighting in the shaded area. One more is Wells took the fourth quarter and the Columbian can't guard him because of fatigue factor too. The Flagrant Foul committed by Corpuz is one of the reasons too why they lost but the main reason is the fatigue and the turnovers that made them lose.
SMB just allow them to dominate but in the final quarter the team works really play the most, SMB rotations kills every team inside this league as whoever who play inside can contribute not only for scoring but also for giving spaces for each players.

TR7 and Wells coming up in the 2nd half and allow their team mates to rest for a while.
That's the brand of SMB, they have the experience and they don't just easily give up.

Despite of this loss by the COLUMBIAN Dyip, we still see some improvement by the team because they won in the first 3 quarters but they showed their lack of experience in the last quarter. Great game by the SMB, whenever they are down, if you are a bettor, you should bet them through live betting as that means opportunity.

Tete on the other hand is also a great fighter so them fighting against each other will surely bring a quality fight comes the fight now.

https://www.espn.com/boxing/story/_/id/27860592/healthy-zolani-tete-defend-title-john-riel-casimero

Casimero is the challenger so I'll pick the challenger as it has a better betting odds.
Was checking in my book and it's not yet available.
3819  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Worst Day of My LIFE - Dice on: October 20, 2019, 11:06:13 PM
Sorry man, that's a big loss, I think dice is not really a good game if you are to risk a big amount like that.
Your problem is you lack discipline in gambling and I am sure any amount you have access might be in a big risk of losing.

If I have that big amount to gamble, I'd rather choose sports where I believe I have a better chance since there is no house edge.
With sports, we can cap games, analyze it before playing our bet and our money will not be gone as fast as you witnessed but like I said, discipline is a must.
