Alcaraz pull another escape again, vs Gojowczyk, it was a fifth set match. He was down 2-1 and come back and win the next 6 games with complete domination.
Look like a young potential player, I saw him at the beginning when he beat Tsitsipas in the fifth set, I still doubt he can pass to round 4, but he can do it, after beat Gojowczyk he still has a chance to the semifinal, of course, he must consistent on quarter-final next. maybe we are not the same of thinking. but when I look through him, I saw pete sampras. That was his first win against a top 10 player from what I remember reading about the youngest player since Chang back in the 80-90's to make it this far in the US Open. I thought he was dusted and lost the match after getting a bagel in the second last set. Alcaraz and Brooksby are the future of the sport with the likes of Murray and Federer moving on in saying they are retiring every year but still manage to comeback the very next season. ~snip I am thinking those odds are about right, Sinner is good but Zverev is better and he is playing in the best form of his life. Even best players in the world like Djokovic have big problems against in form Zverev so I am not giving much chance to Sinner to win today. I feel like his max in this match is to take maybe 1. set.
what is your take on a winner, Djokovic has three possible tough players in a row, Berrettini, Zverev and than Medvedev to clash before the title Medvedev seems as without any competition in his part of the draw, and he will probably see finals Berrettini and Djokovic are both big favorites tonight, so they will met in next round, and Djokovic should pass that one if Zverev made it to semi-final, will be interesting to see them after Olympics match, but I do not see Zverev taking Djokovic down another time, although he is playing great, and this is his grand-slam chance Who is playing against Alcaraz? That guy has some serious fire power and can take out anybody. He is missing consistency though, but that is to be expected for young player. Real floating mine in the draw. I am always biased towards players I saw playing well so I would say Zverev - Medvedev in the final but I did not see Djokovic yet. Not sure if it is possible but I would like to see Djokovic -Alcaraz and I would put down my house on Alcaraz taking at least one set in that one ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) It is Felix Auger-Aliassime. He will be tired after playing a very intense match against Frances Tiafoe late last night. So the younger Alcaraz has the advantage I would say.

Wow! What a finish in the Netherlands! A double dutch special as the announcer had mentioned for Mr. Max Verstappen winning on his home land track. Well done! Only managed to catch a bit of the beginning lap when Bottas was leading him and hamilton early on. Then at lap 70 nearing the end of the race. He was well ahead of Lewis by a good 3 full seconds so you knew it was done by then. And yeah steve, the announcement of Kimi Räikkönen retiring was some upsetting news. A well worn veteran in the F1 world of racing will be sorely missed. Red bull was looking to signing him: https://www.pitpass.com/70645/Red-Bull-held-talks-with-Raikkonen

Guess everyone almost caught the back-to-back BJ busts? It's a sure winner tonight. Ha.
I hit both of those busts but there isnt any BJ special bet since yesterday and I think this is probably the first time that we had two days break for the BJ special bet? Im expecting to hit another BJ soon or atleast before Sportsbet stop this special bet because I think alot of players are making decent profit out of those bets Steve did have a driver at 14k odds to reach pole in the qualifying race. Was off by 0.200 of a second. But still, it would of made for a legendary win. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Where did he find them? The maximum odds that I can find on sportsbet right now is 501x. Its still pretty decent odds though if you like betting on underdogs They are there, you just need to look for them. Mazepin has over 600x odds to win in the dutch grand prix this weekend. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ibb.co%2Fxfnc2VT%2FF1Odds.jpg&t=665&c=oyWs_aKup7HDEg) His high odds was for reach pole position so the likely hood of that happening had a slimmer chance to actually win hence the over 1000x.

^^ F1 is the best odds as at any moment the favorites can slip up and boom, the unlikely driver can win or come in to stand on the podium. Steve did have a driver at 14k odds to reach pole in the qualifying race. Was off by 0.200 of a second. But still, it would of made for a legendary win. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Unbelievable to assign points with only 2 laps and moreover behind the safety car! I've never been a big fan of Formula 1 but this Grand Prix was ridiculous and disgusting to say the least. Finished in two laps to cover their asses against the sponsors and to avoid refunding tickets. Really shameful, there are no other words to describe the Grand Prix of Spa in Belgium: you mean the Spa race was run and valid? That's fine, but everyone should be left with zero points, no more.
No. Zero is also unfair, since the teams have spent time and money. They should have found instead some alternative. I don't know though what would have been that, maybe Monday and refund for the paying fans. With the current bad joke instead of a race, I would not be surprised if paying TV channels would even sue them. I don't think anyone liked how the race was handled. Especially those fans sitting in the rain the entire time waiting for them to make a decision on how it was going to end. I don't think they can be sued as they more than certainly have a clause put in a place just incase this sort of situation occurred. Atleast the next one should have perfect weather conditions in Zandvoort.

Come on guys , don't let this thread getting old as you all love F1 and I'm shocked that no one came here after the qualifiers from yesterday and made a post about it. We had one of the most epic qualifiers in the last 17 years and it was all thanked to raim and Russel who drove like Senna in the old days. Race begins in 2 hours from now and I think Max will win this race but I don't see Mercedes having a great ride today.
It was the best race I have seen even if it was just a qualifier. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I couldn't watch it fully because there were 4 matches in the EPL running all at the very same time and had my focus on those as I put some mbtc on them. But for those who missed it here are the highlights: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_CvS-dN99YNorris crashing out and making his car look like a submarine was the best part for me. Just glad he was okay at the end. It was due to the rain of course.

I don't think the problem is that no one wants to post anything (even though it was an excellent qualifying by Verstappen and Russel under difficult conditions), because there is another thread where people write and discuss about motorsport in general, including F1. It is then difficult to write across threads and I think that is why most people stay in the general motor sport thread. Their thread is spread across all the motor sports including Moto Grand Prix and anything they wish to talk about regarding automotive sports. This one was intended just for F1 and their corresponding races at the professional level. That's it really. But people can post where ever they wish too. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) And yes, the longest track in the F1 series along side with the constant down pour of rain made for no grip on the track hence the most difficult way to steer a F1 vehicle in those conditions.

Agreed. The qualifying session yesterday was incredibly good. George Russell is one of the drivers that I like the most. And I became really happy when I saw that he achieved a career record with this car by taking the 2nd place. If Verstappen didn't have a good lap, Russell was going to take the pole! He is one of the special drivers and I hope to see him driving a Mercedes next season. He deserves this more than Bottas, no offense. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) That's why I took Russell as he showed he can handle himself on these slick straight aways the best out of all of them. He starts pole so I put a fiver on him to win it. Only if Max and Hamilton manage to crash out of course. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) So apparently Norris had his gearbox changed after his crash on Q3 yesterday so had to drop from 10th to 14. Unlucky for him because if he didn't crash he had good chance to get a Pole or top 3 atleast. Stroll will start last after taking penalty from Hungary GP and Bottas also took his penalty and will start 12th he gained a spot after Norris changed gearbox he should have been starting 13th. With high chance of the track being wet at the start being in front will help escape the chaos at the start I expect it to be like Hungarian GP all over again.
The race had been delayed for the past 30 minutes because of the rain and the visibility is very poor. Hopefully they will start it soon.

Please gouge my eyes out .... let Ronaldo move to any Premier League club but not to Manchester United! If he really decides to do it, then most likely I will cease to be a fan of Real. Anyway, 700k pounds a week, although it will make him the highest paid player in the Premier League, but not the most important.
I know what you mean. Same Ole, same Ole. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) He was set to go towards a City offer but something caught his eye at his old stomping ground a decade prior I guess. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) But yeah 480,000 euros a week (from the sources I had been reading on since the news broke yesterday) is still good bank for a player not in his prime. It would of been a deal for a Harry Kane who has still another 10 years left of him left to play in the EPL. There was something about his number being already taken by a player on the Manchester United team roster. But it seems to be sorted out since Cavani will be on the bench now. https://www.sportbible.com/football/news-man-united-star-to-give-up-shirt-number-for-cristiano-ronaldo-20210828I thought they traded him before the season started. Maybe back to PSG just like with Jesse Lingard is coming back to Old Trafford with his tenure at West Ham is done. Oh yeah, don't forget to take soccer blackjack today as they raised the max bet to 5mbtc for this one: Below is the link for the thread so you can follow it's progress: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5323501

Ronaldo did make a huge contribution to Juventus, but Juventus losing Ronaldo will not die. Because there are still many other good players at Juventus, maybe Juventus just needs to buy new strikers if Ronaldo does move. The problem is that until now there has been no official offer from Man City to buy Ronaldo, maybe Man City are still considering buying Ronaldo who is 36 years old and has a big salary. But I believe in the end Man City will make an offer to buy Ronaldo, because they need strikers and the transfer market closes in a few days. Man City don't have many options, after failing to get Kane.
![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ibb.co%2FdkGYvXT%2FScreenshot-2021-08-27-17-01-12-971-com-whatsapp.jpg&t=665&c=tO2Gmoy70d5KUA) Right now the rumors of Ronaldo going to Manchester City are very strong, even many videos (regardless of whether the video is genuine or not) of Ronaldo in Manchester City uniform have been circulating on social media such as the screenshots has my took. with the departure ronaldo, of course juventus should be able to find other attackers in the near future, because of course juventus only relying on paulo dybala and alvaro morata in their front lines right now, with the competition in serie A anda champion league getting tougher of course paulo dybala and morata are not enough,so like it or not juventus should already have a target player to replace ronaldo. Looks like he really wanted to make a move after Messi said goodbye to his beloved team. I watched their last match and having a draw after leading 2-0 and then having his potential game winning goal right at the end must of been what broke the camel's back for him. And finally decided enough is enough and guess he liked it at Manchester United and thought City already had too many star players on it as it is.

What FTX is doing is the total opposite of what Binance did, they are tapping into areas where there is no involvement of Crypto. They are trying to bring in people who have never heard of Binance and but also want to get into crypto- sort of what coinbase is doing too. And its working for them. FTX is growing crazily in popularity amidst people who don't know cowshit about crypto.
Their approach was definitely really interesting and really clever. Heavily advertising cryptocurrency to the gaming industry — that ONE industry that's highly likely to totally grasp the concept of digital goods because of the high amounts of spending on skins and game currencies. It's actually genius that I'm totally shocked it's seems that they're the first exchange to pull something like this off. Too right mk4. Heard from a news feed FTX had partnered with League of Legends for something recently. Whether that be for advertising in game or sponsored a team. I would need to check to see which one it was but it was late last week from what I heard so the ink must be still fresh on this partnership. But they are going hard for exposure towards the right individuals they focus on advertising their exchange too.

My martingale continues and I split it into two matches, picking Gilbert Ubina at 2.5 and Giga Chikadze at a solid 2.0. Use boosts to get those prices, also might be wise to use boosts at each as there's still time in the 24 hours between boost refreshes;)
Have a good feeling at least one should hit! Not from research, naturally. Just pure, unadulterated, gut feeling.
That is all it comes down to when we are talking about these fight nights and for the UFC in general. A gut feeling. You put your money down on who you imagine will win hoping that pick ends it early and it doesn't come down to a judges decision. Because those can be really askewed from what everybody else has seen watching the exact same fight. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) In the main event for this weekend I do like Barboza from what I have seen in the past fight from him. So will go with him on this one. Sorry Buywaytress.
