I think sigle betting is the safest way to bet on sports betting because it has less risk compared to multy bet.
Do as what you feel is good for you, besides you are the one who will gamble, hence you are the one who will have the experience and you can evaluate the result.

If I want to establish myself to continue gambling every week on only one best team, will I be able to win more money at the end of the season? If not, what will cause me to lose at the end of the season ?

For example, I only bet on Manchester City every week until the end of the season with the assumption that Manchester City are able to finish the Premier League and enter the top 4 of the standing.

The few bets you make the more you can be confident on it as you are just choosing the best game which you think you will see some value on your bets, however, you need to stay discipline and ensure a good bankroll is at place so you'll not get bored as you go further.

@status - please back read, Oubaali can't make the fight with Donaire that's why Rodriguez is the replacement fighter now.  Smiley


Sorry about that, I wasn't aware, I think OP should have edited this thread. By the way it's @stadus, not status, lol.

I have to check on his opponent yet, but if it's better than Oubaali then I guess we will see a great fight ahead.

I also apologize.

Yes, my personal opinion is that Rodriguez is a better opponent for Donaire. Rodriguez really loves a straight up fight, he is Puerto Rican and we all know that they are also a warrior. No odds yet, but we all know that Donaire will be the betting favourite and I also looking for a great fight.

No worries man, we have our own opinion and sometimes we missed some information that is vital for the discussion, I'm happy to see that finally OP has changed the thread title to the correct one.

I would like that, Lakers though the depending champ, next season's journey will not be easy for them, especially when going in the playoffs as other teams have also improve, GSW is just an exceptional for me as they never failed to amaze me everytime they play, as long as they are healthy of course.

Backing them without Durant is something valuable because that means you trust the old warriors cast.
Oh, and it would also be sweeter because they can prove they don't really need a superstar in the caliber of KD to win a championship.
We all know there are still a lot of questions about their championships from different analysts.

Reasons:
2015 GSW won, Kyrie injured
2016 Cavs win, Kyrie was healthy.
2017 - 2018 - with KD
2019 Raptors won, injuries in GSW side

I know injuries are part of the game and if they could be healthy this year and win another ring then that discussion will be sealed.
Hoping the team they will be against will have healthy players too. Just to avoid more reasons.


We can't make what happened that brought to the disadvantage to a certain team as an excuses, GSW warriors never said anything bad against their opponent, the last time I remember they said bad was against the cavaliers when they loss at home, it was Curry's wife though who can't control her emotion IIRC. But after that, thy have proven that they are the best team, and true they are with Durant but regardless, they are still the GSW warriors, it was already a championship team before Durant joined them.

I thought it was another scam platform, 4% daily is an automatic scam, good that OP was corrected.

freebitco.in is a legit site, been operating for many years, they would not offer something that will make them look a ponzi scheme.
3885  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: November 16, 2020, 03:40:00 AM
It will be a tough fight in the Western Conference.  Wink

3886  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did anyone try to "gamble" with ponzi scheme crypto scam services? on: November 15, 2020, 11:47:20 PM
Ponzi investments aren't even close to gambling. It's like saying that you'll gamble by trying to steal money from someone and hope they won't notice or at least won't call the police. If you can get away with it it's a win, so you've just gambled, haven't you? I agree with the others that it's not a very smart way to risk your money. If you lose you feed scammers. At least if you lose in a casino you allow the business owner to earn. By sending money to scammers you encourage them.

Good point here, scammers will be more motivated to make more scams if there are people who will patronize on what they are offering, this is gambling but the bad side of gambling as it will result to scamming people, you lose, you say you got scam, you win, people say your are scammer, that's what's gonna happen to you as you are into a scam platform.
3887  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Kell Brook vs Terence Crawford November 14 on: November 15, 2020, 11:20:04 PM
Also Arum said that he is willing to set up a fight with Spence anytime. So I guess we have to wait. Don't worry mate, we are going to bounce back next time.  Smiley

This is the best development after the fight, hopefully it will happen because it is sure a big fight.
A rematch for Kell Brook vs Crawford is not an interesting to fight anymore,  fans wants to see Crawford fight with some real champion and this is it.

I'm wondering now which fighter you guys will root to win if this big fight will happen.
3888  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are we all fools on believing the word "HOLD"? on: November 15, 2020, 11:43:59 AM
I like to share my story being a crypto enthusiast, a trader and an investor at the same time.

I started in this forum in year 2015 when altcoins are still a good investment and Binance is still not the most popular exchange in the market.
I trade with Poloniex most of the time, sometimes I trade with Bittrex but then I realize that I am not so profitable with trading since I cannot focus on it due to the reason that i have a day job to prioritize.

Therefore, I started to invest for long term and I was entice by how the market moves and I was so optimistic that long term could really change my life.
So to make the story short, I invested with different altcoins and have help it until now.

Now, when the bull run comes, I still couldn't sell right away as I was getting greedy thinking I could earn more when I still hold.
of course, who would not HODL when all your friends in the group chat are also doing the same, even if the price rise high already, they are still saying HODL, and I really do it, and just sell a small portion of my investment to reward myself temporarily was I was into a big goal with my remaining investment.

And then, the correction comes started in year 2018, and I still didn't panic, continue to hold and even accumulate a bit when I see price has really dump a lot, just imagine ETH drop 10 times, so its really cheap and really tempting for any investors. So here I am now, I am still holding at a big loss but at the same time I am still hopeful one day my dreams will come into reality.

So top 10 of my portfolio consist of the following based on my blockfolio.

1) Atlant
2) Edgeless
3) Centra
4) Humaniq
5) Matchpool
6) Lunyr
7) KIN
8.) FUEL
9) SONM
10)NPXS

Please tell me if I should still expect I will be profitable or just give up now already.

in my opinion its better exchange your altcoins above with bitcoin, ethereum and Binancecoin my friend, i think its safer to Hold in long term


If you were  at that time, you would also consider spreading your investment to different altcoins, maybe some or most of the coins in the list are shitcoins right now already, but during that time, they were so popular and they also had a big run, bittrex times if you still experience it.
3889  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: November 15, 2020, 11:30:55 AM
Now that people seem to lost their trust to GSW as they have a new favorite, I'm liking the odds now.

Oh yeah stadus, we might make tons of money here.  Grin

But if GSW showcased their skills once again, the bandwagon will be back.
That time we could bet for the old favorites.  Wink
But seriously, Klay and Curry had enough of their rest. Time to work again to get another championship.
The roster is looking great and they have young players that can easily adapt to the fast plays of Steve Kerr.

I'm glad we are in the same side, lol.

As people are rooting for the Lakers, GSW are just waiting for the season to start an they will prove again that they are still the best in the West.
GSW is still a great team, they seem to forget that GSW had achieved a 73-9 record in the regular season, and that was without Kevin Durant.

Repeat is possible.

Highlights of Emmanuel "Manny" Rodriguez

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMkCiye54Sk

Good puncher power, decent hand speed, aggressive and come forward fighter.

So it this is a tailor made fight for Donaire, as we all know that he can adapt to his opponent. In this case he will be countering with his left hook and then overhand right and I think Donaire can hold his chin against Rodriguez



https://boxrec.com/en/proboxer/614887

Wait, I thought that was a different fighter, this particular fight is between Donaire and Nordine Oubaali.

This is his opponent, https://boxrec.com/en/proboxer/680900...  shorter than him with only 5′ 3½ in height which I think would struggle against Donaire.

3892  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Nordine Oubaali vs. Nonito Donaire - December 12 on: November 14, 2020, 11:28:42 PM
So another boxer is down with the virus, at least they have find a replacement on Rodriguez which is also a tougher match for Donaire since we all know that Donaire is slowly ageing already. And Rodriguez' only lost came from the hands of Inoue. Looking at his boxrec here: https://boxrec.com/en/proboxer/614887, seems a decent fighter. But I think with Donaire's experience, he can beat Rodriguez by decision or by another highlight knockout, his left hook.

The odds will favour Donaire here, I guess. And let's hope, no one will contract the virus just before the fight. Seems that sportsbookies haven't picked this match yet.

I would also go with Donaire, it's a kind of fight that Donaire like since he has the reach advantage and the height, I never saw a small fighter beat Donaire in his division now. Betting odds will not be available until first week before the fight will happen, that's normal for a non popular bout I guess.

Quote
This will be the comeback of Donaire if he will win this match.
Donaire loss to Inoue but he was an underdog of that fight, here, I think he will be the favorite.
3893  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: November 14, 2020, 10:57:07 PM
Even Klay and Curry can lift up their team, there is no assurance that they will win the entire series. Well, this just explained that no matter what the team is, one day it may decline. Even in empires, there are golden era and declines.
We are going to see if they are still the old boys who make the GSW warriors popular. The next season is a shortened season, good for the team where players came from injury but I think Curry and Thompson had enough time to rest and get back in action in full potential.

Now that people seem to lost their trust to GSW as they have a new favorite, I'm liking the odds now.

Not a good comparison with the current situation IMO, bitcoin that time is still a bit bullish, and the popularity of altcoins was still there, now they struggle so we will not certainly gonna see a good price in overall, also, you only choose a very limited number of altcoins, but if you'll add more, like the top 100 or top 50, for sure the previous times are still profitable.
3895  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A gambler living in England makes a $5M bet on Trump on: November 14, 2020, 09:44:33 AM
The gambler had chosen the odds with cent percent hope of winning. In the history of US election every Presidential candidate is being elected for two consecutive period as President. This is the first time a president is losing the election without continuing for a total of eight years. Maybe upon this fact the gambler could've chosen the odd for Trump.

That new info for me.

Never thought that it happened in the presidential election of the US but as far as I know, I've watched this video saying that they are kind of finding a new thing so maybe they are so fond of Trumps' word and they want a new one. This might just proves that the people don't actually like the idea of Trump leading the US.

That's definitely not the first time though, this article would give us the right information.

The office of the US president was established in 1789, and out of all the men who have held office, only ten have failed to win re-election for a second term, when they have attempted to.

It's important that we know the real information first because we made a statement, let's avoid making statement that will mislead the reader.

3897  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is an entertainment? on: November 12, 2020, 11:46:51 AM
those who run the business are making business, those who are playing are doing it most of because 2 incentives:
- fun/entertainment
- money

on the second point: money
it could also be for to reason:
- their conscientious desire to (try to) make more money
- their unconscientious desire to burn money

In short, those who run the casinos are getting money from people who spend money just to have fun.
That's the usual scenario as majority of the gamblers are just having fun, others maybe serious but majority of these serious people are still losing money.
3898  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs. Conor McGregor on: November 09, 2020, 03:03:02 PM
Yes, he may want to fight Manny because of the money involve but people dont care and what they want is to see him in the ring with Manny.

People are willing to pay to get this two in the ring, otherwise this fight won't happen.
What people would really want is to see how Manny beat Conor badly, he is not the king in boxing, it's not MMA, so there's no chance he will win.

If he stand with Mayweather until 10 rounds, i think he would not last 3 rounds with Manny if Manny will not think of the "EXHIBITION FIGHT".

Manny would not just play Conor McGregor here, it's not in his principle to manipulate a fight, Conor McGregor challenge Manny for a boxing match, Manny accepted the challenge so he will try to win impressively again. His career is not over yet, in fact he is still a champion at his division, and could possibly fight Spence or Crawford soon, but of course, if Manny is looking for big money and easy fight, he knows the answer.
3899  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Huobi vs BNB on: November 09, 2020, 02:45:47 PM
Im using Huobi years ago, not that I dont like them, they have a low withrawal fee.

About theyre tokens, Binance is more powerful in terms of users that is why it cant surpass BNB price and volume.

Agree with this, it's not like Huobi is bad
But Binance had more influence and had a better fame compare to Huobi

Most people prefer Binance because of CZ i believe

People prefer Binance because it's a more popular, we can't say because of CZ but because CZ is BINANCE or he created Binance, they both will grow together, and as a CEO of one of the biggest if not the biggest exchange in crypto space, he would not leave Binance for any reason as that could possibly result to either his downfall or Binance, they are bond together.

Anyone assumes the playoffs will be changed as well? Or do you think that will stay the same. I feel like 5 game first round series have been talked a lot in the previous years when parity wasn't like this, it was mainly like "warriors and who?" for a while and the answer was cavs, for the past 5-6 years before the covid season it was basically just first rounds were as regular as regular season was.

However with this bubble season making everything a bit more fun and a bit more close, maybe that 5 game idea is shelved once again I don't know. I could say that there are series that I think should go to 7 game and fun, but then there are series that are very boring and should be done within as quick as 3 games let alone 5. However considering the parity is back on track, they will probably keep the 7 game series for all arounds.

The playoff format wasn't change, even in the last bubble.

I'm okay with a shortened season but to reduce playoffs series too, I think that's too much, that's the time where NBA gets more views, so I doubt they would change that, there's even some speculation that NBA is rigging games to extend the series, so now way they will reduce the playoffs series games.
