Bitcoin is more surprisible than gold.
And digital trade is better and faster.
You will earn much more money with bitcoin than gold.
Totally agree with you.
Also, I would like to invest in gold too, but I am capable of just buying some golden items, noting more, to be in possession of something that has that value. Dose are my possibilities at the moment. So I am in bitcoin world only.

One historical, very rare thing happened on this Eurobasket 2017. Romanian player Andrei Mandache made triple double( 14 points, 11 assists and 10 rebounds). Last man who did that was Toni Kukoc, legendary Croatian player, 22 years ago(15 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists). Romanian team lost that game, Montenegro was to strong for them, but Mandache's individual achievement is really outstanding, we can not see things like that often in Europe. Congratulations Andrei.

Here's the full draw of the playoffs:

Germany vs France
Spain vs Turkey

Slovenia vs Ucraina
Latvia vs Montenegro


Lithuania vs Greece
Croatia vs Russia

Finland vs Italy
Serbia vs Hungary


I think that the semifinals will be:
Spain vs Slovenia and Serbia vs Lithuania

Spain and Slovenia are unique teams without defeats.

All the matches of second and third seeded teams of the groups will be interesting to watch, they all are equally quality teams by my opinion. From the other side, favorites should have easy job in this round.

Argentina's Juan Martin del beat Roger Federer in four sets to reach the US Open semi-finals.
He goes on to face Rafael Nadal, who earlier beat Russian teenager Andrey Rublev.
What are your thoughts about this semi?

Nadal has the edge between the two, my speculation Nadal will go to the final and even win the grand slam, because of his experience plus the momentum of winning streak it will catapult him to the final.
So sad Federer out from this event. I expected him in finals, but unfortunately, he defeated by Del Potro. It was an excellent match b/w Potro vs Federer. Bad luck for Federer. Now everyone put eyes on Nadal. I think who will b/w Nadal vs Potro they will win this trophy.


Yes, its sad to see Federer go out against Del Potro. He played very well and I consider this to be his greatest performance so far. The question is, can he perform to the next level against Rafa? For me, it looks like he gave it all in this match and not sure if he has still something in his tank after a hard match against Thiem and Federer. But Federer reaching the quarters, its such a accomplished, he was pushed during the 1st and 2nd round and still managed to win. I guess he's luck run out against the resurging Del Potro. If I'm correct, Nadal has the edge vs Del Potro, let's see if this continue. I also would pick Nadal against him, Rafa has the experience and very tough to beat once he got into a semi-finals.

Fantastic victory for Del Potro, he is a great champion but was very unlucky in his career with too many injuries.
 The decisive moment of the match was the tie-break of the third set in which Federer wasted 4 set points!
Nadal vs. Del Potro is the anticipated final, who wins this game will also win the tournament!
Nadal seems in great shape but Del Potro can do another epic match and win!
I also think that Nadal is favorite for championship title. Only chance that Delpo has is to push Nadal hard from the beginning, to get inside his head. Nadal had some bad moments in few matches at the beginning of the tournament when players made great pressure on him. I just wouldn't like to see poor quality match in this semi.
All congratulations to Del Potro for victory in yesterdays match. He showed great mental strength. Amazing last two performances, I really love to watch him when he is playing his best tennis.

There was some interesting games today. In A group, France beat Poland by only 3 points. And now Finland vs Greece playing and in 2nd quarter Finland have 12 pts advantage. It's important match in fight for playoffs.
In B group Germany beat Italy. Tomorrow Germany and Lithuania will fight for 1st place in the group.
C group. Spain won against Croatia in last minutes in close fight.
And in D group Latvia with K.Porzingis won against Russia. Now 3 teams (Latvia, Russia and Serbia) have same result 3:1 and tomorrow it will hot day in fight for 1st place in the group.
Tomorrow Greece and Poland will decide in direct duel who will play in knockout phase of championship, match of the tournament for both teams. And like I mentioned, Slovenia is first seeded in group A. I have expected more from Italy. Good team with good work ethic, disciplined in defence and offense with great coach...
I am glad that we saw a team that can play equal game with Spain. With the start that they had I thought that Spain will take title easily. Croatians showed that they are not just strong team on the papier but showed that today on the court too.
What a victory for Latvia... They beat Russian team. Davis Bertans had 2+1 play on second or two till the end of the game. Latvia had +15 and they needed +17 to ensure first position in the group because of better point difference in triangle of this three teams. Bertans purposely missed free throw and hope for rebound and two points. At the end they finished with +16. If all three teams finish group competition with same number of wins Serbia will be first, Latvia second and Russia third.

Nadal is through to the quarter finals after winning in straight sets against Dolgopolov, it was no challenge for Nadal as he breezed through only losing 7 games in the 3 sets. Thiem is beating Del Potro in the 4th set and should make it through. Now we just wait to see if Federer can make it through to the quarter finals when he faces Kohlschreiber soon.
What an incredible match Delpo and Thiem played. So interesting and quality duel. And what a comeback Del Potro made... amazing. He was ill these last couple of days, doctor gave him pills during the medical timeout in first set, he was feeling pretty bad. I thought that he has no chance to win, but how wrong I was... Fantastic. It would be great for him to rest and recover good, as much as he can, because Federer just won the match against Kolschriber and it was pretty easy task for him, three sets, hour and fifty minutes, didn't even sweat.
If we expect that Nadal & Federer will meet in the final I think it will not happen because of Andy Murray withdrawal of the US open would make the tournament in bad shape the shading of the player will be change Nadal& Federer will meet At the semis in that case only one of them  will go to the final slot, correct me if I'm wrong but that is my understanding hopefully Im wrong because I cannot wait to see them in the final.

You are right, they could meet in semifinal match. Murray announced that he is withdrawing from tournament at the beginning of the US Open. That`s why Roger was third seeded, Murray is second placed ATP ranking player and that is why we have this kind of situation now. To bad, I think that lots of people wanted to see great finale between this two great rivals.

Russia beat Serbia, and it's surprise. This year Russian team looks solid after last two terrible performances in Eurobasket 2013 and 2015.
France won against Greece. France had huge lead after 3 quarters, but in last quarter Greece started to play wery well and they been very close to France. It's nice to see Antetokounmpo played today. I'm sure he will become bright star in next years.
Russia played fantastic game today. Their coach prepared great tactic and his players respond perfectly on it. They are finely composed team with very experienced players and with outstanding Shved as their leader.
Turkey just won their match against Great Britain. I forgot to mention, they could be one of the favorites for highest placement. They were hosts of finale tournaments two times and both time they played in final match fighting for gold medal. History can be repeated.

Bautista-Agut R. (Esp) vs Del Potro J. (Arg) => Delpo wins @2
   
Goffin D. (Bel) vs  Monfils G. (Fra) =>  Goffin wins @2.4
                       
Odds on Delpo looked like a gift. I was late to bet on this match and I feel sorry for that now. They just finished their match and Delpo win it easily. Good luck with next match to come, I personally would skip betting on that one  Smiley

Cilic lost today, Schwartzman was better in this match. It is big surprise for me, I saw him as one of five favorites for championship title. Argentinean shows once more that he is a real dynamite and that can beat almost everyone.
Shapovalov is the youngest player ever that entered fourth round of GS. Edmund retired at the beginning of fourth set because of shoulder and back injury. But seriously, how far this young player can go?
And bookies are pretty happy this days...so many favorite players finished their participation on the tournament  Cheesy
412  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIBA eurobasket 2017 on: September 01, 2017, 08:00:46 PM
Great game today played Serbia and Latvia. Porzingis and brothers Bertans are super trio and could make problem to any other team in this group. Their biggest problem is bench (small roster). Serbia is going to have big problem with playmaker. Today coach Djordjevic played some time without playmaker in the team. Bogdanovic scored 30 points and seems to be that he will be their first offence option on this tournament.
413  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tennis League All Thread on: August 31, 2017, 09:53:44 PM
Shapovalov played five matches so far( three in qualifications). I can't wait to see him in main schedule in the future.
Borna is big potential and played his best tennis against Zverev Sasa. It is 2-0 for him now in head to head matches against Zverev. Seems like Borna has special inspiration when playing against Sasa.
Federer is preparing a surprise for us. He is really struggling in his match. Just lost a break advantage in fourth set and it is 2-1 for Youznhy. Looks like Roger is not ready to go all the way to the end of this Slam.
414  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIBA eurobasket 2017 on: August 31, 2017, 09:27:04 PM
I didn't know that Anthony Randolph is playing for Slovenia. They have great players, their leader on the court is Dragic. He scored 30 points today. Also Igor Kokoskov is their coach, man great NBA experience, currently assistant in Utah Jazz. I think that they can fight for first of second placed in the group A.

And the upsets keep coming this US Open with Nick Kyrgios going down in 4 sets to fellow Australian John Millman. I had high hopes for Kyrgios in this years US Open as he had great form leading up to the tournament. Again a lack of dedication from Kyrgios lets him down and if his ever going to win a Grand Slam he needs to change in a big way. What an epic match that was with Federer, great to see young talent pushing the older veterans to the best of their ability. Tiafoe is someone to watch for the future Grand Slams.
 
Yes, this was huge dissapointment for me as well. I saw him coming to the quarter finals, at least...
He showed us one more time why he will never win any bigger tournament...
We can't never know what to expect from Kyrgios in any next match. He is so talented and so good player but I think that is not fully dedicated to life style of great champion. He looks to me like someone who loves to live life, to enjoy in a moment. He is not like Nadal or Djokovic, for example. Those guys live tennis. And Nick is playing hot-dog on break ball for Millman... But it doesn't bother me, I love to watch his matches and probably would be just like him if I was a tennis player  Grin

A lot of interesting matches on the womens side today. Will try my luck with Osaka today. If she is fit and injury-free (she retired her last match in Toronto) she will cause Kerber all kind of troubles. Kerber herself is under such a huge pressure and I am not impressed with her results this year. Probably wait for Kerber to go a break ahead, to get better odds.

Well, that was easy Tongue
Xexe.. Great job man. I just hope that you've placed that bet at the beginning instead of waiting for break. Anyway great way to triple your money  Grin Well done.

Unfortunately in these European Championships will be absent, many strong players for various reasons: injuries, bad physical form, NBA.

Here are some missing players:

Greece: Antetokounmpo
Serbia: Jokic,Bjelica,Raduljica, Teodosic.
Spain: Lull, Ibaka, Mirotic, Fernandez,Reyes,Claver
France: Causeur,Parker, Gobert, Batum
Lithuania: Jankunas,Sabonis
Italy: Gallinari,Bargnani
Croatia: Tomic, Zizic, Hezonja


Serbia and Spain are the favorites but I expect many surprises

Spain missing a lot of good players will be much their downfall in this FIBA. I also think that Serbia will take home the crown for this year. However, its really hard to predict, because maybe the new faces will really try to bring out their best. Its gonna be tough one, but if Serbia vs Spain in finals, I'm going for Serbia.
Kalinic is also injured and will not go with the team on Championship. He plays very important role too. I don't know if I have favorite right now but if I have to choose maybe it would be Spain instead of Serbia but only because Teodosics absence.
On the other side there are teams with great players and we should never forget about Lithuania, they are always there with great energy..
418  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can you determine whether you are addicted to gambling? on: August 27, 2017, 10:33:48 PM
Pretty easy. They usually are spending lot of time on gambling and daily activities are based on it,  they see gambling as main source of money income, they are feeling great amount of joy, like adrenaline rush when are winning, trying to regain cash when have bad day or bad days and not just with their bankroll but taking loans for that cause... Those are some basic symptoms of person that is addicted on gambling.

We could read predictions about bitcoin price in the future and they all said that price is going to rise more and more. So logically it still is a good time to buy it. We could also see how bitcoin price is rising and we can assume that predictions are true. That means that people would need bigger amount of cash to spend on buying bitcoin in the future.

Latest news : Murray withdraw from US open due to hip injury Sad Really sad to see this , not because I love Murray lol but because it will be less competitive . I just wish US open will be as entertaining as it always is .

Yes, he is official too, he will not attend the US Open, maybe his season is over. Unlucky this year he and Djokovic will return protagonists next year.
Federer at this point to return first in the ranking atp will only have to get to the final


Well yeah but he gotto beat the current no.1 in semi-finals ( if Nadal reaches semis ) to become the next no.1 . It will be one hell of a match if both of them reach semis Smiley Waiting for tomorrow.
To bad for Murray, I thought that something like that could happened. Hip injury need more time to heel and player, in consultation with doctors and his team, have to make decision to play big tournament with pain in his body or to take time as much as he need to so that he can come back fully ready.
If his body is okay, Federer has great chance to reach semi-final match, has great chance to win this trophy. As he said it would be totally crazy for him to win three Slam titles in one year especially in his 36 years of life.
