Pick : Trail Blazers : -1.5

I will look into this after today's game, Nuggets and Trail Blazers are two teams that are fun to watch, but I am a Blazers fan most especially when they are playing at home and I think that -1.5 looks very easy, but then again, there might be some injuries within the team that only make them -1.5 against the Nuggets that they beat in the semi last playoffs.

Exchange that are regulated are required to require KYC to their clients, that's basic.
If we like to enjoy a full privacy, we should not allow regulation in the space which is impossible since its the only way to gain adoption.

We've seen the effect of no or lack of regulation, there's a lot of scams being tallied in the crypto space, we don't want to see that increasing as that would destroy the future of crypto, whether we like it or not regulation is going to happen and every exchange will require KYC.
3923  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Tete vs Casimero on Nov 30 on: October 21, 2019, 12:19:56 PM
I consider this to be Casimero's toughest bout to date, this Tete has a wicked punch, have checked some of his knocks out victories and some of them are coming from one punch, but we all know Casimero, he has been into so many tough fights, but that long lay off will have an impact to Tete, just like what happen to Thurman, I will not going to miss this fight.
He is coming from injury so we might not see the old tete in this fight.
Regardless, I would still put my money on Casimero knowing that he can fight, have some knock out power, so this will be a tough fight for tete for sure.
Remember than Tete is the champion here, if casimero will loss, it's alright, but if he will win, the Philippines will rejoice with him.
3924  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are your most common superstitions? on: October 21, 2019, 11:40:52 AM
Everyone has their own belief I guess, but in my case, I feel I have someone watching me when I am gambling.
It seems like I have more energy to win when someone is cheering me while I am playing, I just observe it but most of the time I just gambled alone.
Personally, I don't believe much on superstitions because it will only make me unrealistic, I wanted to be serious in gambling so I prefer to choose a skilled based type of gambling for serious matters while luck based games for fun only.
3925  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which betting type gives you the most payout? on: October 18, 2019, 02:39:54 PM
Parlay bets gives most payout as even with just 2 bets in a parlay, you can have a good return of your money, provided you are lucky as the more bets you combined in a parlay, it will decrease your chance of winning. I am not doing parlay in a regular basis as I understand my chance, it's more like a lottery pick for me that I am willing to spare a small amount for a bigger possible winning, but like I said, I can only win if I'm lucky enough.
3926  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]:Crawford vs. Kavaliauskas on: October 18, 2019, 02:23:12 PM
There is no betting odds right now but we can use this as a basis.

https://www.oddschecker.com/boxing/terence-crawford-v-egidijus-kavaliauskas/winner

The betting odds are the following.

Terence Crawford 1/14
Egidijus Kavaliauskas 7

it shows Crawford is the heavy favorites.
3927  Economy / Speculation / Re: Are we looking at Bitcoin down to $5K? on: October 18, 2019, 01:55:41 PM
I will not say btc won't go down at that level again because anything is possible in crypto with market unpredictability.

However, in the last quarter of the year, I am optimistic that we will see some good increase here so we can finally call this year a recovery year for BTC.
if the price will drop to $5,000, there's still a recovery but its' not a what we like to see as this year we've reached almost $13K already which is a good price already.
3928  Economy / Speculation / Re: BULL VS BEAR on: October 18, 2019, 01:11:32 PM
Majority voted for $8,000, they are being in the safe side because that's the range of btc price this month.
We have to be more optimistic and remember that this market is a very unpredictable market so we could jump back again at $10,00 or over.
I just missed the deadline, I should have voted $10,000.
3929  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC TO 35K$ IN 2020 on: October 18, 2019, 12:58:13 PM
Great if that's going to happen but honestly, I like to stay conservative with my prediction.
if we struggle to have a new ATH this year, we might have the same struggle next year, but if we can have a new ATH, things will be better and I am okay with $20K by the end of 2020 in return to a more stable price not like what we have experience in 2018.

same with this youtube vid. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4uL3YRDcok

I was also looking for a video where Leonard steals the ball from Luca while he is dribbling and made some easy shot in the other end.

Luca is good but he still has a lot to learn before he can beat Leonard, the Dallas Maverick now are a fun team to watch as ponzingis is already healthy.

And they're already good enough to make the playoffs. Luka Doncic is still rookie but with a good consistency of his playing, he'll be surely the most avg. player every season.

https://youtube.com/watch?v=YQJnvvO8Bpg
Crazy duel with Luka Doncic & Kristaps Porzingis (welcome back)

I don't know if they can, what we are witnessing is just a preseason which players are not taking the game seriously.
yes, they dominated the Clippers, but PG was not playing and Leonard only played a small number of minutes, preseason games are just exhibition games, it's a no bearing game and starters usually does not play hard to avoid injury.
3931  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Are u buying alts? on: October 18, 2019, 11:16:47 AM
yes of course I still buy altcoin because by buying altcoin you can get a lot of benefits, even though altcoin has a very high risk, you should be careful when you have altcoin. until now I still keep some altcoin which in my opinion has the potential to rise.
You will only get benefits if the coin you buy will pump and will give you a profit.
Though we are in a bearish period now, we still have to be very careful in choosing altcoins as in reality, majority of the altcoins are scams.
Better be on the safe side and that is by buying popular altcoins as they are likely the coins that will succeed in the long run.
Volume matters a lot because without good liquidity, a certain altcoins might not survive.

Looks like I am gonna lose my first bet for tonight, I bet on the Blackwater to win parlay with over 197.5..
Its only 2 minutes left now and the Bolts are leading 10 points, I think Blackwater badly need a dominant import, they need to replace Blakely.

Sorry mate, you lose that bet, but there's still time to get back that loses betting on the 2nd game.
I hope you were able to put your bet already, the game has already started but you can bet live in sportsbook that has a live betting features.

Alaska is so underrated here so I like Alaska ML with small bet and Alaska +10.5 live at 2.25 odds.
3933  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Errol Spence Jr. Vs Manny Pacquiao on: October 17, 2019, 11:14:43 PM
This boxer will surely bleed against the Filipino fighter
I don't want to think like that because we are underestimating Spence that way, let's just say we will see a great fight if this two will meet in the ring.
Maybe it's not gonna happen this year but if both parties will agree, the best timing will be next year in the MGM arena.

For now, this is the only match I see which is very exciting, except if Mayweather will try to get in the way and give Manny a rematch which is not likely to happen IMO although there are rumors around.
3934  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Binance(BNB) best alt coin ! on: October 17, 2019, 10:59:26 PM
Which criteria did you use in evaluating altcoins before arriving at the conclusion that BNB is the 'best' altcoin? By 'best' what exactly do you mean?

Best in terms of technology? Userbase? Market Capitalization? Personally, I don't think there is any 'best' altcoin. A direct comparison of two or more can have some alts stand out in terms of technology or whatever criteria you decide.
Probably based on individual judgement only because we can compared every coin in the altcoins market since there are thousands of it, and if we really want to compare we have to exert time to know them all as it would be unfair to compare with only knowing the other side.

as for me, I would also think that BNB is the best altcoin this year, yes this year only because its very profitable this year but I am not saying its the most profitable this year since there are other coins that has better increase than BNB this year.
3935  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling activities correlates with Bitcoin's price? on: October 17, 2019, 10:31:12 PM
I am little bit confused about this topic, especially in gambling websites that accept Bitcoins or any cryptocurrencies.

So, we can see more activities on gambling that uses Bitcoin when we are in bull market (price increasing)? And decreases the activities or gambling volumes when also the price of Bitcoin keeps dumping (bear season) ?

I don't know if (we) some normal gamblers would have idea about this or maybe some gambling sites would exactly know this based on their website traffic/bet activities.
Yeah price does affect the volume of bets in a casino. When the price is starts to go high or reached a higher position recently, the gamblers have more money to gamble ("notice how I am saying more fiat money instead of coins, since gamblers bet based on the value of the coin instead of the amount of coins). So when the price is high, they are able to place bet with lower amount of coins than before (lets say they bet 10 btc which was 1000 USD, after the price rise, 10 btc is now 10,000 USD. Thus they now can place 1 BTC bet 10 times before they go bankrupt). Thus we see rise in volume.
Gamblers would do that so for sure the gambling sites operators are doing the same.
Both of them are playing with the value of bitcoin and not keeping bitcoin to be affected with the price volatility.
They will convert it to cash regularly and I think every casino has their ceiling amount that when they reach it, they will convert their money into fiat.
3936  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to be profitable in sports betting? on: October 17, 2019, 11:14:48 AM
Sports betting is kind of predictable so you need to increase your knowledge about the game you are going to bet to increase your chances of winning but the results May go in other way as well but you can win problem more in sports betting compared to other kind of betting.


This is what must be done if you want to win sports betting. I often place balls, but I am not haphazardly betting. I have to see first from the team, news or players. This will greatly affect the match later.
You have mentioned some of the factors necessary to be profitable in sports betting, but there's more to that which is needed for you to become more stable and more consistent on your judgement. When you are into sports betting, you always look at a long term result, you might struggle from the start but you need to make sure at the end you will end up profit.

While you are betting, you will make mistakes but you will surely learn from it if you are really dedicated on what you are doing.
Proper bankroll management will help you to stay longer but in order for you to take it seriously, you need to build a decent bankroll.

Voted for other. OP seem to forget adding the team of Giannis which is the MVP last season, although they were dominated by the Raptors but Leonard was already with other team now, so their journey in the East is easier now as they have also dominated the celtics which is also a great team.
3938  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crowded Casinos - Play or not? on: October 16, 2019, 10:46:33 PM
Honestly, it is difficult to play in casinos that are crowded because it is very difficult to move and it is irritating that you can't even focus on the gambling game that you are playing, so i only play when there wasn't any a lot of people in a casino for me to enjoy and focus myself from playing gambling.

Every live casino is usually always crowded and these people enjoy every game, if it really makes it out of focus surely the casino will be quiet.
If you want to focus, don't play at the casino, play online casino. In that case you can freely relax, calm and focus. But it must be remembered that the atmosphere will subside with direct casinos.
There are offline casino that are less crowded like the one OP showed. The location where it is sited can make less crowded.
This is just too much...
He is right though, concentration will be quite difficult. It's unfortunate, one might feel the urge of gambling offline instead of online.
In that case you'll have to go with a less popular casino just to have some concentration.

There is a reason why a certain casino is crowded and that simply means they are very popular as people love to gamble their money in a certain casino.
I would not mind playing because not everyone of us played the same type of game, when game is mostly based on luck alone, we don't need much concentration anymore but we like to see more people betting as that would inspire us to bet more also, where we can feel the real entertainment.
3939  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do You Compare Your Trading ideas with others ? on: October 16, 2019, 10:26:33 PM
This is why I hang out in this section. Although lately there's not been a whole lot of discussion on trading tactics, you can seldom find some good information from other people that seem to know what they're doing. I don't care who you are, there's always more to learn. So, the ability to have other people show you what works for them is brilliant. It's like they say, two heads are better than one. All of our heads together is even better.
I wish I could find someone who has the same interest like me in trading, right now, I am just doing it my own and join online trading channels to improve my knowledge but it's different when you can see someone close to you who are trading because you can both compare and improve together.
Thus far, I am still successful despite of being alone but of course as a trader I want more success and more consistency so I can bag more profits.
3940  Economy / Gambling / Re: Cloudbet | Bitcoin Casino & Sportsbook | The No.1 Bitcoin Gambling Site on: October 16, 2019, 10:45:21 AM
I am not sure what is going on but I will definitely stay away from Cloudbet for a while...
There's a lot of sportsbook to choose from, actually the signature you are wearing is a good sportsbook as they do process withdrawals instantly and they don't even have any charge of the amount. I am just wondering why you are playing Cloudbet when the site you promote has what you are looking for in terms of withdrawals processing speed.
