Chicago Bulls vs Portland Trail Blazers
New Orleans Pelicans vs Houston Rockets
Golden State Warriors vs. Detroit Pistons
I just won Houston rocket at this time. what the 1 point portland, Damian Lillard going to the buzzer beater, In the last shot (3 points) he bring the portland to be a winner. damn!.


That's what you called a real superstar, he does not panic and he never give up. There was only few seconds left in the clock and Bulls had a good lead but he never give up, he made 2 3 point shot to win the game, Lillard the man.
Imagine on having that 5 point lead by Bulls on last 24.5 seconds on the last quarter but they do still able to close it out with 2 3's in 11.5 seconds left on the game.
It was a tough shot but that jump ball decision did really give out some chance for them to have the possession of the ball.
Damn Lillard! I lost my bet.  Cry



Sorry to hear that, better luck next time game, sometimes things really came out unexpected, just like this game. If I bet on the Bulls, I would be too confident already that they'll win with that few seconds, but really 'sh*t happens"... lol

I was already preparing to log-in into my sportsbook  account and readying up for some cash out or take profit specially on that last 30 seconds of the game which 5 point lead
isnt something that a certain team could able to pull off on few seconds.I did actually smash out the chair beside me when those 3's did actually bangs out.

Shit do really happens and better luck next time to me. Well played Lillard well played.

The Live Bet board is still active and currently, there's a few active player playing dice (about 2 users).

But that was 1-2 users only that's playing right now so I will take this as good news that others are now aware of the site's status. Or maybe this is also a user from the site itself to show visitors that their site is still running.

Who knows.

Your analysis is right, they know that they have an existing thread here and people are questioning its inactivity I would not even think of playing
there right now and depositing a big amount, the developer should have a concern that there is already a thread like this and an existing report in the scam section, if they want their site to continue they should have come down here and clarify things, not doing this is a big warning sign already.


Showing off no interest about site feedback's and complaints does already signify a red flag.I had seen that too where there are 2 players whom do actively playing  off the site.

We dont know if these 2 are really players or just simply the part of the team that is trying to make the site look active and continue to deceive people to make out deposits.

Showing no response and complaints/issues had continue to rise up then this is simply indicating a sure scam.

No problem, I prefer the short term when I buy and profit and then sell and wait for another opportunity.
not exactly an investment as a whole but it is what I usually do.
especially if the market conditions are very volatile you can earn in a short time.
what you can do if you have enough skills to analyze the markets in your day trading. once you get enough profit, you can immediately exit the market. but not everyone can overcome their psychology in the event of an upward trend in prices. most people would think that the price could go higher. Many people are greedy and end up in a market situation that they think is trapping them.
When talking or suggesting about having analysis then it is easy but it is actually hard to be one even to those who are experienced ones.Getting early and make out some good exit isnt something
that someone can able to do so or attain.Being greedy? this had been a typical problem on us specially when we do deal with money.It cant really be avoided but somehow can really be controlled.

Most of us when we are just starting then we are really that impatient and do really rush up on making out money or believing that we can make one fast but when you are already
on the actual situation then this would be an another story.You would really realize that things arent really simple as you had initially believed.

I watched some of those big bets and wondered what lifestyle should be living to afford a $100.000 bets. Do they even feel anything about losing or winning a million?

It's just crazy!

These are typical behavior or bets that someone can be made if you are a certified whale.You wont really be matter much or looking too serious on betting 6 digits on each bets.
For us people who are just typical or ordinary joes then these bets are really insanely high.Cant just imagine to lost up those amounts but well if you do have
lots  then you wont really be feeling out that much of pressure.Its just great to see that there are really people who can afford to bet that much.
We wont just able to know if they are on the positive side of things or on the negative ones.
4046  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Canelo Alvarez vs. Avni Yildirim - February 27 on: January 30, 2021, 03:44:41 PM
Canelo is good and fresh from the fight while Avni was absence from the ring for a year or so, so I think this will become hard for Avni to get on track easily but if you are just looking at their records, I can say that they have the same result and an interesting fighting strategy, nevertheless I’ll go for Canelo on this match just to have a safe bet.

Canelo will win this without a sweat. Don't know why Team Canelo entertained this so called "mandatory fights" when they can go for a bigger fight. Maybe this is just a way for them to have Canelo a tune-up fight.

Cinco de Mayo, Canelo always fights on this date and so far a name already floats as who he will be fighting next. Saunders could could pose more threat than this one.
It wont be called mandatory if theres no something behind, so the team wouldnt have any choice but to fight even if they do know that this wont be a tough match.

Tune-up fight? I would consider that possibility but hey, are we looking down too much on Avni?  Shocked

Yes, that's the reason behind why Canelo will have to fight Yildirim, although we all know that he is no match for this version of Canelo, but still Alvarez needs to fight him. Yes, probably we can call this a tune up or get busy fight.

The odds are not lying though, Canelo is -5000 betting favorite, so we are not looking down too much on Avri but the numbers is telling us the real story.

Why there are matches that being arranged up on that way? This isnt only talking about this fight alone but also in other mandatory fights as well on where they do aligning out those
boxers which arent really that good match up on the current known or hall of famer boxers at this moment which even the blind people could say on whose gonna win.  Cheesy
-5000? These numbers are way too obvious.

I noticed that a fight like this is commonly happening nowadays, a mismatch fighting or a different field of fighters will be in one ring so the other would take advantage for sure this would be just for money or for charity, hoping that the prizes would be going to charity if that so then I would support this fight. I don't know both fighters so I will not support them if that would not be for charity.

I don't think they are planning anything like that.

This is purely a match and the benefits will be taken by these two "boxers" the same with the producers and "business managers" of this fight. I don't like these kinds of matches where a "boxer" would just fight anyone who he wanted to fight. Is this how easy it is to earn money right now? Still, hoping they would be sending some funds to a charity they will be choosing.

thats what am thinking. if this is like more of exhibition fight, then at least send some proceeds to any charity org. at least make this worthwhile, right? or are we seeing greedy promoters and boxers here? we all know they are just like "substandard" boxers, one of them is not even a prof boxer. not really worth to pay ppv for them, imo. but we cant deny the fact that they have loyal followers so they will be banking on those followers to earn from this fight.
Arranging up these kind of fights did become quite common on last year and up to now,is this the new way on milking out for ppv sales? Imagine that Mike Tyson  and Jones Jr. didnt really generate that much
even these people  are  known legendaries on boxing world but still not enough on getting recognition.They do still make money  though but  for sure it isnt on something that they were expecting.
4049  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Thailand government seeks measures to tackle the problems of illegal gambling. on: January 29, 2021, 08:37:58 PM
As I'm telling you, it's not the government that will ask them to and approach them. You don't understand it. It isn't the government that will give them special treatment with sort of "approach" you're saying.

If it's illegal then it is illegal.
Calm down bro. The government can say it is illegal and legal, and they can also change from illegal to legal if they can approach the illegal gambling and ask the owner to make it legal. Maybe they can give special treatment to them as you say, and I think if that treatment is a win-win solution, the owner will think about it. Who knows, with making that deal, the government can invite them to make their business legal, so they do not have to bribe the officials. I think not all of the owners want to have an illegal gambling business.
No owners would really be tending on hiding with the shadows and if they can really take advantage on having connections in to those top positioned fellas then they would really be doing
some sort of common action.When government do see it that it would really be beneficial of them then they would surely be making  steps that would really be on a win-win situation.
Instead of blocking or prohibiting them then why wont allow them instead? They are really aware on the possibly benefit or exchange if doing such thing.
It all matters into their decision though.
4050  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What has been your longest streak of dice losses using martingale ..? on: January 29, 2021, 07:44:27 PM
Not really a big time gambler thats why the maximum i had able to experience is 12-13x loss in a row until my capital bust into thin air.This really proves out that
martingale doesnt really work in any ways and this is the fastest way on burning up your money if you do believe that it would really just work or be an advantage into your side.
To think off on the amount that you can profit after having a series of losses isnt really just worth in any angle but hence people do still keep using this
very old and classic way of strategy into their gambling activity.

Definitely correct but in honest talks then i dont  really believe on such calls because these are highly manipulative or deceptive one.

We know that these fella's can really move out the market due to financial capacity or capability but not everytime it would really be precise for someone to follow.
Lucky for those who do take shot on following him up which it did really pays off.
This doesnt only limit out with DOGE but also with other unknown coins that had been pumped out in the market which i do saw that it had

However this is a marvelous way of showing no matter how strong wolf.bet or any other place helps you with your security, if you do not take the charge yourself and do your due diligence, you could be losing your account one way or another.

Most gamblers arent really that keen on setting out these extra security features into their gambling site accounts but rather they do just prefer on creating one and then
creating another one when they do came back.Some are really fan of doing that specially if it isnt really that hassle on making one.For people who are fully aware on how

Sometimes people luck is full of surprises, winning this $ 1B lottery is crazy in my opinion. For me this is a very large number, really lucky
the person who won the lottery. I am very sure that the person will be surprised and confused about how much money to use. My advice is
if we win large amounts of money, we should consult a financial advisory service. This will really help so as not to use the money wrongly.
Luck is one of the main factor on hitting this almost impossible chance to hit up lottery.Imagine on getting or hitting 1 billion dollars? You would really be having a extravagant life that you've been wishing for on your entire life.This is why  lots of people whom do keep on betting or buying out tickets due to this very reason for them to get rich instantly and able to buy up things that they do want which you can possibly done once you
hit the jackpot which is an enourmous amount and i do really laugh into those situation that loved ones and relatives will really be going after you asking for some bonus or money since you won big time.
So this is one of the primary problem you would need to face off, if its really just possible to make your win or hit in private then no one would ever know.

Hi, BitcoinHunt3r

I talked to our support team. As you were inactive for more than 30 days, that's why you had a reactivation boost available. You can track your past boost rewards on this page: https://bitcasino.io/#boosts. Casino boost is a bonus feature that activates for a limited amount of time and it increases your win by a certain percent.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Regards,
Karl
Bitcasino.io

Karl .... will people not misuse a system like this, if they know inactivity would increase their odds of winning? How long does this increase in the odds of players winning last, when they were inactive?

You guys should not reward inactivity.. but rather reward activity to give credit to people that wager more frequently. It is the active players that are boosting your profits...not the inactive gamblers?

Why not? It is basically a unique reward and I believe bitcasino also give reward to active players.
In other words, casino giving reward for those who have just came back from inactivity is a good way to make the players stays or to invite players who are inactive to come back.
I do believe some other casinos do the same thing, by giving away something like free balance, free spins, etc to their players who are inactive.
All in all, it is one of their marketing strategies IMO.

It is a good strategy, when you are given this type of treatment due to inactivity they are taking into account the age of the player and it is a great way to reward, it is like showing that respect to your clients, I do not see it badly.
Why would seeing this negatively? I dont also see the wrong side of things on offering something to those who came back or simply being inactive for a while.
It is really indeed showing off some nice marketing moves that made those returnees to stick this time around once they do able to take advantage out of those bonuses
or perks on the time that they came back.That'll surely sparks out some interest once again which i do see a good  move on the  marketing side.
They do know on how to retain up their players once they do came back.I havent seen  similar old gambling site that do make out these perks even if you inactive for a while
rather than deleting the whole thing.
4055  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bitcoin vs eth on: January 28, 2021, 09:59:27 PM
A year ago I bought 1 BTC and 20 ETH
I have very high hopes for eth and was wondering if I should transfer all or some or none of that bit coin into eth.
It’s dumping right now but I was thinking since there’s a discrepancy in the price might be a good time to get in
Let me know ur thoughts
Thanks so much

Why wont you hold both instead? If you have bought these coins a year ago then for sure you are already in profits if we do try to compare the past price and the present time price
of bitcoin and etherium and for sure you are on the profiting side unless if you do decide to convert those ETH then switching up to btc then its your choice
but hey diversifying is always recommend so its still your choice though.

We shouldnt try to compare both different markets because bitcoin can move without relying alts or entire market condition and same goes with ETH.
If you  do want to max  out  possible profitability  then going for both is the best bet.
4056  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why would anyone use a betting broker? Have you tried it? on: January 28, 2021, 08:06:59 PM
If you just spend $10 on it occasionally, then I agree with you, it is entertainment. I've been thinking previously that if someone uses help for making bets, it automatically means that the main purpose is making money, not entertainment. But you proved me wrong on that. Good for you! Smiley That's a healthy approach to gambling.


We do sometimes think up too exaggerated and do finalized up things basing off on what we are currently seeing not only in the present but also in the past as well.

This is indeed a healthy approach towards gambling because same as you said where people do let others do make out bets for them is most likely be aiming for the money
but due to some restrictions or circumstances they dont able to do so but doesnt mean that they wouldnt really be letting someone to make bets for them.
This kind of services is quite relevant though but im not expecting that there would be business like this and that of course will be charging up for the service.
4057  Economy / Speculation / Re: Don’t Panic on: January 28, 2021, 06:59:32 PM
I’ve seen this twice before...  If you’re really thinking of selling, wait for a couple of days when it’s bouncing back.  It could bounce back to 36k - 38k and give you a chance to sell at a better price.  If it doesn’t...  We’re f*cked anyway.  Lawl.


Don't panic for those people who are currently holding, not just because there is a minor dump you will immediately sell your holdings. Just hold until you want I've already seen this before in which just a couple of days the price that has been dump bounced back more than the price it drops. Always remember to don't be scared because we all know that the more you risk the more you got in return. Just have patience and don't be scared on a dump of $2,000 to $5,000 because it's normal.
Easy to say but if you are on the actual situation or into their own feet then you would really be having those thoughts specially if you do purchase or had accumulated big amounts then
these kind of movements even on few percentage correction will surely freak you out. Dont panic word is something that can be said into those who had been tending to hold for long
term and doesnt really care on what would be the prices into these early years since they do aim for more years but for those who do longing for short term profits then these kind of situations arent the easy ones.

Handling out emotion isnt something a human being could easily able to get rid of but with due experience you would really be aware on what should be things that be done in situations like these
since you are fully aware and able to met those scenarios in the past thats why it do contributed on the actions that you should make.

I guess Triller company has a deeper reason why they arranged this fight but what is sure is, they are doing it to earn some money for sure especially that this kind of fight will generate a huge amount of money if it will click to the viewers.

Though I am not so sure whether the Paul and Askren fight will generate the same profit to Mike and Jones match as they are not that well known. But let's see whether Ben can also make a good performance in boxing ring.
Isnt that obvious? With all of those exhibition fights that we had seen, including to those fighters that had been long retired and just came back to the ring to make out some money.

We will continue to see fights like this and this kind of arrangements and set-ups when these organizations do sees that they can really milk out money from it, not only to the boxers/players itself
but also into the management.

Back to the fight then this isnt really that too much in hype compared into those previous match-ups/exhibitions that we had seen but at least they would really be
getting some views for this fight but expected it wont really be high as that.

These scammers are utilizing the shortcoming of these individuals, utilizing their eagerness for their advantage.

And indeed it was very smart(the case on OP).  I wouldn't call them scammer but schemer.  People try to steal their valued coins but those people were outsmarted instead.  I really find this stuff hilarious esepcially to those people who search the internet for private keys since their intention is clearly to steal anything valuable from those discovered addresses.
Schemer = Scammer

No matter what you do call them it is just the same. Deceiving out people just for the sake of stealing their money is really just the same.
Once an old modus or scheme had been busted out then its normal for these scammers to create something new that hadnt been busted
by the masses because they would really be thinking that it would just be a waste of effort on trying to scam out people on using a known or common scamming technique
and here we are now seeing these new way of scamming out people.This should really be shared up to spread up awareness.
