I suggest making a poll so it's easy to know what the community of gamblers here thinks.

Me, I fall in "Casual Social Gamblers", yeah, I'm not so serious in gambling, I just have fun and it's more fun to gamble with your friends, you know, drink some beer while gambling, that would add some confidence in putting a high stake. Fortunately, I still maintained that discipline even if I do drink while gambling, something I learn from years of gambling experience.

Didn't expect this news, I guess it's we will know next conference if Vic Manuel has that power inside to lead a team. Northport always fails to qualify in the playoffs but they are trying to improve their lineup, with this news, I'd say they are on the right track.

Anthony is probably what the Phoenix needs as they don't have someone to help Wright carry the team. Wright's production has also decreased the last conference so the team is affected a lot, with Anthony, this team would certainly be a playoff contender again.

When a player does not give the expectation especially coming from a trade, you know the management will try to find a solution by bringing a new guy in exchange for a new player. Looks like Phoenix does not like a player coming from Alaska as they traded Calvin for Manuel and now they finally land to a player that is not from Alaska, hopefully, this time they'll find what they are looking for as the Fuelmasters roster are full of talented young players.

Not 0.01$ but maybe 0.001$ could possible if shiba burns large portion of their token. Otherwise it become tough to reach such milestone by meme coin like shiba as it doesn't has any use like others coins ! Big whales are behind shiba but also not sure about its stability, possible to start downfall after touching the milestone i mentioned! but that's also so far to become happened in reality
The only way for Shiba to reach that price is if the market remains bullish. When the bull run is over, everything will be back to normal, and since there's no hype anymore, these meme coins will be forgotten as people will focus more on coins with real usage and has good potential. Investors are definitely playing with this coin now, it's hot since it pumped many times but I would never think it will reach 0.01 USD ever, that's too unrealistic.

Malaking kawalan sa kanila kung i delist nila ang XRP sa exchnage nila dahil maraming gumagamit nito at isa na ako roon. Mabalis kasi ang XRP at napaka mura pa ng transaction fee, sa totoo lang, mas ginagamit ko pa ito now sa mga transactions ko compared sa bitcoin. Basta for gambling purposes mas mainam ang xrp dahil madali lang i transfer from one exchange to antoher then saka na sa gambling sites, para malinis.  Smiley
Wala namang announcement ang coins.ph tungkol dito at sa tingin ko naman hindi ito mangyayari dahil marami ang may hawak na XRP sa account nila. Hindi sila basta magde deactivate ng account ng walang dahilan kaya posibleng may nilabag na rules yung mga nagsasabing na deactivate yung account dahil lang sa pag send ng xrp to binance. Baka naman nag receive sila ng xrp from gambling at na trace ni coins.
Gamit ko din palagi XRP kesa sa bitcoin kasi nga mas tipid sa fee. Kung tutuusin ayaw ko talaga sa XRP pero hindi naman nangangahulugan na hindi ko siya pwede gamitin as alternative transaction kasi nga sayang yung cheap fees niya. May kaibigan akong taga US at nung magta-transact sana kami, nagsuggest ako na xrp nalang kasi nga cheap at mabilis. Pero sabi niya, ban na sa kanila kasi nga dahil may active SEC case kaya bawal nilang gamitin. Sa atin naman, kapag BSP ang nag order kay coins.ph na bawal gamitin ang XRP, tingin ko agad agad nilang ipagbabawal yan at disable agad pero mukhang malabo naman mangyari.
Oo nga pala, may pending na kaso pala ang XRP sa US na hanggang ngayon wala pa rin decision. Tingin ko hindi muna ma delist ang XRP sa coins.ph unless matatalo sila sa kaso. Basta walang problema sa BSP, walang pakialam ang coins.ph dahil kumikita naman sila palagi.

One last fight for Lomachenko this year, hopefully, he will be able to end it with another win.

This fight will happen in just over a month, so I'm wondering maybe the odds are already out now, anyone here has an idea what's the betting odds of this fight? Obviously, Lomachenko will be the favorites but I like to specifically know how favorite he is based on the line.

anyway, here are some information regarding the fight.
https://champinon.info/schedule/lomachenko-vs-commey/

It's too early to expect a betting odds for this fight, maybe by December it will be available, so let's just be patient. Besides, we know who to choose and obviously, it's Lomachenko as he is healthy and ready to dominate again.
3826  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: November 04, 2021, 12:47:47 PM
I saw the video of Klay shooting and he still has that stroke.

I feel like he will be able to come back earlier than expected, it was reported that he might be able to come back by December this year but seems like he looks healthy already and he has that lift already. I know the medical team of the GSW won't give a clearance if he is not fully fit to play, so if he comes back soon, let's hope that he will be healthy throughout the season.

Anong nangyayari sa coins.ph? Dami atang na deactivate na users nakita ko lang sa XRP group kasi ngsend lang sila ng XRP sa Binance at ang masakit di pa nagrereflect sa Binance kahit 1 hr na lang nakalipas? Hindi na kasi ako nagamit nito mula nung may P2P na sa Binance. 
Anong rason naman kung bakit na deactivate? Ako consistent pa rin ako sa pag transact ng XRP at mabilis naman ito, hindi nga lang Bianance ang gamit ko. Kindly give more information regarding this, baka makatulong at para rin maging aware tayo.

XRP rin ang choice ko at wala naman akong nakitang issue ka sesend ko ng XRP at pumasok naman sa wallet sasabihin naman ito Coins.ph kung may mga users na nag kakaissue pero sana naman  ipost din dito ang issue sa XRP, sa akin kasi kung walang rason I consider it as FUD nag check ako sa market ng pric e at wala namang dump na nangyayari.

Walang kinalaman sa market yan for sure, maaring sa mga pinagagamitan lang ng XRP, pero parang FUD lang yan dahil wala namang maipakita ng proof, or di kaya fake news. So far, kahit anong exchanges ang ginagamit ko sa pag transact ng XRP going to coins.ph, smooth pa rin naman, para walang waiting time dahil seconds lang pasok na agad.

Sana magbigay ng konteng information si @ice18 para maliwanagan tayo .

Kinabahan ako nong makita ko ang mga post ninyo right after I sent XRP from Binance to coins.ph pero mabuti nalang at smooth ang transaction gaya ng dati.

Mukha yata may kulang pa tayong mga informations kung bakit magkaka-problema yong mga account nila, hindi ito dahil XRP ang ginagamit nila kasi kung may problema ang coins sa XRP, first thing they would do is to delist XRP from their exchange para wala ng makagamit.


Malaking kawalan sa kanila kung i delist nila ang XRP sa exchnage nila dahil maraming gumagamit nito at isa na ako roon.

3828  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [ BOXING POLL ADDED ] The Rematch - JOSHUA vs USYK II (updated thread) on: November 01, 2021, 06:47:54 PM
Indeed Joshua have lost his face in the crowd during his fight with Ruiz and also against Usyk in their last match. No one believes in him anymore that he'll win against Usyk this time except his team ofcourse. And even if Joshua will fortunately win this time, he'll eventually lose against Tyson Fury and will definitely teach him.

I kinda excited to watch Usyk against Fury tho, these two fighters is much more entertaining to watch.

Joshua has lots his face only when he was knockout by snickers boy, but then he got it back, or turned into neutral.
In his fight against Usyk, even though he lost, he did not look lost, confused or pathetic. It was a fight where one fighter was better than other. It wasnt a beating or dominance.

In their first fight, Usyk was a total underdog (odds on Joshua was about 1.4-1.5, on Usyk 3+). In the second fight, Joshua wont be an underdog this time. I think it will be around 1.6+ on Usyk and something above 2 on Joshua.

I think on the contrary though, Joshua might still be the favourite to win his rematch against Usyk? No?

Because he has a history of avenging his defeat just like in the Andy Ruiz fight. So maybe sports bookies are going to put him as a favourite but it's going to be close.

Not sure who or where he is going to train though, or pick up his new coach to prepare him in this rematch.

According to this site https://bettinginsiderjournal.com/boxing/usyk-vs-joshua-2-odds/

The opening betting odds for the rematch are as follows.

Quote
Usyk vs Joshua 2 Odds
Boxer   Odds
Oleksandr Usyk   -225
Anthony Joshua   +172

It's Usyk who is the favorite, and I believe this is just right as Joshua vs Ruiz fight is way different, this one, we saw a serious beatdown on Joshua and he was dominated by Usyk in most of the rounds.

Maybe but very difficult. Not saying it’s impossible but isn’t 20B market cap is a lot for a crypto. But I guess if doge reached 80B and shiba 50B then I wouldn’t be surprised
Now the positions on both have reversed where Shiba is in 9th position and Dogecoin is in 10th position in cryptocurrency rankings so it can be concluded that Shiba's market capitalization is more than Dogecoin now.
Yes, the hype of DOGE has transferred to Shiba INU and its price is already $0.00007299.

If some people would think it will reach $01, then I would say they must be dreaming as it's not gonna happen as that's 137 times increase of the current price, imagine multiplying the marketcap of Shiba Inu now which is $39,941,445,894, that would be over $5 trillion which is above than bitcoin's total marketcap.
3831  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will Shiba INU tokens continue to rise? on: November 01, 2021, 08:55:27 AM
If you are not afraid to follow the hype then invest in it.

Shiba rise significantly because of the hype, it's really unbelievable that it's already ranked number 9 in CMC now, and it already surpassed DOGE in ranking. I'm assuming that money from DOGE is now invested in Shiba, and like DOGE, when the hype is over, it will also not gonna pump anymore.

The time will come that the hype will be over, one big fall of bitcoin or if the market will have a bearish trend, everything will be over for Shiba INU and it will fall to the ground.
3832  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING] Jonas Sultan vs Carlos Caraballo - October 30, 2021 on: November 01, 2021, 07:35:20 AM
Apart from the 10-9 on one of the judge's score card on a knockdown, I'm not going to argue with the rest of the rounds. I think we can all agree that Caraballo is the more technical and efficient fighter throughout the match. He's unlucky that Sultan had a very tough chin despite landing clean and powerful shots of his own. I think a rematch is in order.
I agree with that but the score should not be that close. About the rematch, yes for sure Caraballo deserves a rematch and while he is more technical, he should also work on his chin and Sultan will work on his boxing skills so he can beat Caraballo if he can't knock him down in the rematch.

The key to Sultan's victory was the knockdown, without it, Caraballo is a clear winner.
I have seen a lot of boxers who are great punchers and technical and they were betrayed by their weak chin and weak knees, this is the first time that Caraballo was hit so many times, and every time those punches landed his knees buckle, he is used to fighting fighters who do not move and just received his punches and were afraid to throw, that chin breaks his being a promising boxer, I don't mean to disrespect Caraballo but world champions have a strong chin and strong legs, this fight reminds me of Amir Khan, who moves great in the ring and keeps piling up points but getting always beaten by a punch in the chin.   
I would also say Amik Khan reminded me of Caraballo, they are both good technical boxers but they are not durable and the Filipino fighter has a well-deserved win although the win is a bit controversial I think let's just move on since a win is still a win, just let the organization do the job if the judgement was fair and if not then someone has to be penalized according to the rule of the boxing organization.

Tyson can sing dancing in the rain on Broadway while wearing boxing gloves and a guard if he feels like it.   You said it yourself that its not a professional boxing match so its only subject to general oversight only I presume. The trick that makes them money is they dress it up as if its going to be competitive in any way when every prior instance clearly seems to be running through a script to fit in with commentary and sponsorship.

In general, this is what exhibition matches are known for since it is not subject to strict regulations and preparations. But imagine being punched to the face by someone, adrenaline will definitely start to hit you prompting you to be serious at one point.

Regardless if the match between Tyson and Logan Paul is half-baked, it is definitely a privilege to witness one of the all-time greats to perform once again inside the boxing ring. In addition, regardless also of the result, I just want to see Tyson perform his 'one-punch' power like he used to do back in his prime. Like what my father just mentioned, Tyson in the ring is a lion waiting.

This is not the first time Tyson fought in an exhibition match, he fought before against Roy Jornes Jr. but there was no KO in that fight, so it's better not to expect too much but if there will be a KO, I think it would be nice to see it coming from Mike.

This one is  a good read on how Tyson would win https://www.dexerto.com/entertainment/ufc-legend-explains-why-mike-tyson-will-flatline-logan-paul-in-boxing-match-1685309/

This is hard to watch as Luka is sensational, but maybe if they will fail again this season, they might add new players and trade KP.
Trade KP for Jokic hehehe.

Dallas would always welcome that idea, however, the big problem is, will the Nuggets allow that to happen? obviously, the answer is no because Jokic won an MVP last season and he is the best player on the team, without him, Nuggets will struggle and will not be a championship contender.

It would favor the Dallas Mavericks but it will never happen because Jokic is the Lebron James of the Nuggets, this team has become better when Jokic arrived and they are now consistently in the playoffs, unfortunately, they have not reach the NBA Finals yet but they will surely reach that in time as long as they keep improving and of course, Jokic will remain healthy.

Actually, their team now is already a championship caliber, they just need to have a healthy Jamal Murray again which is still out until now and no definite time of return per update.

3836  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Issue of fixed Matches on: October 31, 2021, 11:15:57 PM
Those are days when fixed matches are very common around in all sports. Now this has decreased a lot, due to the technology advancement. Earlier small signs were noted for fixed matches. With the present technology uplifting it is easy to identify these activities of players. Once I participated in such a match, and won the game. During the year around 2000 match fixing was quite common in most of the sports.

I would disagree with this.

I don't think that the incidence of fixed matches have necessarily decreased because of technology advancement.

That is quite naive to assume. Technology works in the favour of both the fraudsters and the enforcing authority, not just the latter. What makes you think that the fraudsters didn't become better at predetermining outcomes to avoid detection?
Technology helps them to become more advance and for sure they are taking advantage of this to fool people so for me as well, fixed matches are still here and honestly they grow a lot compare before. Well you can check it on your own so you can know where to place a bet and see if you are into a fixed matches or not, its hard to notice but its there most of the time.
You'll only know there's a fixed match happening if you have info, if not, then you have no idea if such game is fixed or rigged as they act like real actors when they are playing, and also, let's put in mind that not everyone on the floor or on the court knows the game is rigged, sometimes officials do take control of the outcome by using the referees of the game.

This fixed game thing is not new in the sports betting industry, before I started to learn sports betting, I already read about the theory of sports rigged and I am convinced that it's happening once I become more mature being a gambler.

Really a close fight. From the very beginning the match was very close. Every round created expectation, because it isn't possible to predict who the winner will be. Round 6 gave momentum for Sultan and he properly made use of it. Carlos Caraballo was good with his defence than Jonas Sultan. Finally it was an enjoyable day for Philippine people.
It was a close fight because Caraballo was able to stand up and continue to fight, he also have good rounds since he has good boxing skills compared to Sultan, but because he has a weak chin, that made him suffer from the hands of Sultan who are always willing to finish him, it's just unfortunate he cannot totally knock him out.

However, the judges might be a little obvious as the score was very close despite Sultan scores knockdowns, which tells me that though Sultan wins, boxing is still one of the corrupt sports in the world.
3838  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: October 31, 2021, 09:20:18 PM
The ex-Lakers are doing pretty well with their new team. Kuzma and Harelll are great and I think we will see their true potential that they were not able to show in their previous team, also let us not forget Dinwiddie who is good in any team he will play, this team has the potential to compete in the playoffs.
That was 3 Lakers players were traded for Westbrook.
Their stats have really improved, especially for Kuzma and Harell.
you can see the improvement here.
Kyle Kuzma
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope
Montrezl Harrell
Montrezl Harrell having the best season of his career so far with 19.3 ppg average.

Kuzma has been playing very well for the Wizards so far with 15 points a game and 42% FG. So are Harell and Pope. I think getting them traded was a win for both parties. Lakers got WB and these players got a better team they can perform consistently in.

Yes, the 3 of them are shining in the Wizards uniform, playing both offense and defense. Kuzma gets a lot of flack last year, but the kids has the confidence to still play very good in Washington. I thought his dagger 3 in the corner was enough to give them the win. But the game was like playoff basketball and hopefully these 3 players will contribute big in every game for the Wizards. There were times that Harrell was the facilitator in the game, which we didn't see him in Lakers.

We don't see that in Lakers but he was doing it already with the Clippers.

Before he played with the Lakers, he already has good stats with the Clippers and I was actually surprised that he leave the Clippers for the Lakers, good thing he didn't stay long with the team and was traded to a team that he could be on his own again, I mean, look at this stats now.

And why he decided to create this thread? Why he doesn`t want just to wait or to contact with the support privately? I don`t see any reason for Stake to help OP in any way. May be my example is rough enough but the main idea is true. If Stake will help to one thread - next user will not wait but will create a new same thread.
As per Stake's ToS, OP is within his right to make a withdrawal request even if he is self excluded. Self exclusion is meant to help gamblers with their gambling problems by preventing them from placing bets. But it doesn't give the casino the right to confiscate your money.
OP did contact their customer support but they denied his request, obviously because of their ignorance of their own terms! So what should he wait for?
Anyway, I suppose his case was resolved since he hasn't been active here for days.
Sorry, i was wrong. In such dispute i`ve forgot about the beginning. I read the first post again and see that OP made his steps to decide a problem. He just could to make this post in the Stake thread or pm to Stake official member may be.
But i think the problem is solved if we don`t see him for days.
We all make some mistakes by misreading a piece of information so that is just natural, probably the OP created this thread for the very same reason he could not wait for his self-exclusion to end, he is simply an impatient person and he wanted the opinion of the community about the subject, even if it was clear that it was more simple to resolve this through the appropriate channels that Stake has prepared for these kind of eventualities.
That's right, he would not be able to get sympathy from the community as the rules were very clear and stake as a company cannot make an exemption to violate their rules just because one of their clients' asked for it or think that it's unjust. This thread teaches gamblers to read the rules before clicking, and I hope gamblers read this thread so they are aware of the self-exclusion rules.

TNT has won a championship because they are a healthy team, in addition, Mikey Williams is just unstoppable against the hotshots, but not with the SMB.

One thing that I just knew about Mikey Williams, he is already 30 years old. He may be a rookie in the PBA because it is his first year but he has already played so much basketball that's one reason why he played that way, he is almost the same age as Fajardo.

In fairness to him, he has a high basketball IQ though and he deserves the maximum contract that the team could give him as his years playing this level is numbered as he is not young.

Thanks for a little trivia, I don't know that he is already 30 years old, he looks younger than that IMO but I know he played a lot of basketball tournaments already. Compared to Ray Parks, I think is better as he was able to blend with the team and their chemistry is perfect.
