Too bad that the association doesn't want Casimero and Donaire to face each other because it's going to be a good match since they both have a beef with each other so we can expect rage in both fighters but no it doesn't happen, even Inoue's wish to fight Casimero didn't come true as he too is pissed off with Casimero.
There will a time for their match, it may be canceled now but were confident that they will face each other in a ring. The postponement is caused by what Casimero said in Donaires wife that causes thm some fight and turn to cancel the game. Soon when things over and they find peace there probably a time for them to fight again. This postponement will give them a chance to prepare more when they finally have their match again.
The organization has nothing to do on the cancellation of a fight between Donaire and Casimero, it was the move of Donaire to cancel the fight for personal reason, if they have fought and Donaire was not so sensitive with the trash talk, the fans might have seen a good fight this year.

If it's a bait, then who exactly is doing this?  Who makes newbies win? The house? In what manner?

The truth is that such methods are only practised by scammers. It's not like it's an inherent part of any casino.
It's fairly easy to rig a game and we all know that this field is full of scammers. So, as long as we don't know what the casino' owners are doing behind the scene, we should never trust them and always verify everything. "Don't trust, verify!"
To mitigate this risk when playing against the house (dice, crash, slots...), only play provably fair games and verify each round result. When playing a PvP game, make sure you are playing against real players and not bots.

Sounds unrealistically to me, to be honest. Do you personally only play provably fair games and verify each round result? I seriously doubt that. Smiley

After all, gambling is supposed to be for fun, and there's not much fun in constant verifying. I think it's enough to check on the reputation of the site in the gambling community, and then if it's okay, you can play there without fearing to be scammed.


I would not do that if it's in my case, it's time-consuming and it will just kill the excitement that I like to feel when gambling.

Thing is, if a gambling site is reputable, they would not attempt to cheat anyone or cheat even just in one roll because if they get caught, that would destroy their reputation and their business could go bankrupt, that's the big risk for one mistake.

That has been the trend now, and maybe the government sees it's very important to get people vaccinated as you can't consistently tell people to do social distancing in a casino, some are not anymore wearing masks because that would not give them the full excitement when gambling, so the virus will easily spread, and without a vaccine, your body will easily be weak.

I guess we can understand what they are trying to deliver to people, and if we don't like it, then we can choose to gamble online.

If proven guilty, it could also say that game fixing is really happening inside the PBA.

That's very concerning because if he speaks, he would be investigated more and will be asked where is the information coming from inside. I guess we should follow this as we are talking here about the reputation of the PBA, since we are just speculating, maybe this would prove that it's really happening within the league.

It seems like the penalty is very light, revoking the license is not enough, if proven guilty, he should be put in jail as he is destroying the image of the PBA, and not only him, all the people that are involved in this game-fixing. What would happen here is, if he will not appear, the investigator will not be able to conduct a deep investigation on a possible bigger hole.

I guess the penalty is just reasonable, besides, the PBA itself is not running a fixed game, he was just saying that there's a fixed game and his tip is guaranteed to win, but it did not happen. So, probably he was just inventing it because he can use his position being a player to convince the person that he is credible. It's hard to make speculation this one, maybe let's wait for the result of the investigation.

I do not see Simmons get out of this and become a better player. Dude has been in the league for years now and still fears shooting threes, in an era where everyone is taking threes. His teammate, Joel Embiid is a big big center, dude is huge, and he takes more threes than Ben Simmons.

I doubt that he would suddenly change his mind and start shooting after he is traded. Don't get me wrong you do not have to shoot threes to be a great player, not like Giannis takes awful lot of threes however you need to have the confidence enough to shoot threes if you are given super empty shots by the other team, other teams literally do not even cover him, or at least start playing PF and a little bit more inside instead of starting from out and trying to get in. His defense is great but his offense became nothing like people expected and his lack of even trying to shoot shows how he is not even willing to improve himself.
I don't know if this is really plausible for Simmons.
I believe if he stays in Philadelphia 76ers, he can improve in his future, not only Simmons, but Joel Embiid as well.
They are young and still have a great growth potential in the future.
Why are we still hoping that he will stay with the 76ers? Simmons and his team do not have a good relationship anymore, he ended it for not coming to the practice and he doesn't want his team to contact him, it only tells that the guy wants out, that's final.

4287  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Canelo Alvarez vs Caleb Plant on: September 26, 2021, 09:03:43 PM
That was really shocking, just imagine, Canelo just bully Callum Smith in their fight and he bounced back with a very big win. You can also tell that Canelo is just too superior that he can make a good boxer look bad when they are in the ring.

Castillon is fine now by the way https://www.badlefthook.com/2021/9/25/22693564/update-lenin-castillo-hospital-fine-after-frightening-knockout-callum-smith-dazn-boxing-news-2021

The writing on the wall is clear.. Canelo is just dominating his weight class, similar to what Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield, Wladimir Klitschko and GGG did during their peak years. He is just 31 years old and I don't foresee any significant competition for him in the next 2-3 years at least. And I am really getting worried about Caleb. He made a few statements (probably being told to do so by the organizers), and it might have got Canelo really irritated. I am afraid that Caleb will be beaten to pulp on November 6th.

With what happened during the press-con that aggressiveness shown from how Canelo react will bring impact when this two already inside the ring.

Caleb needs to carefully observe how Canelo bring him the fight, once Alvarez start to attack and Caleb don't have
any counter we might expect a KO knowing the skillsets of Canelo he's very good beating up his opponent with ugly outcome.

Just like what both of you observe, Canelo is too superior and he can add that superiority against Plant.

Plant has to double the effort in training but not to overtrain so he will still be 100% during the fight which he obviously needs it. Canelo is too superior, Caleb needs more training than his trash-talking to beat Canelo, and it's not impossible though the chance is very slim as long as he is focused on his goal.

I'm wondering why there's no live streaming on this game, I am searching on facebook using the keywords "PBA live streaming smart", but no live streaming is displayed coming from the smart, most of the live streamss are from small-time streamers which the audio is different than the actual.

Livestream for San Miguel Beermen vs NorthPort @ SMART Sports: https://fb.watch/8fZmdvDJ21/

Halftime: SMB 44 Northport 43

Yes, there is no live stream for the first game between ROS and Magnolia on which the latter win, 81-70. But lots of small streamers out there. The only annoying thing on their stream is their own commercial. Their page, their rule after all.

That was the link I get from the live stream video, but when I open it in my other browser, it does not show the actual live game so I'm hesitant on sharing it. 

By the way,  lose my bet because SMB has a one point lead after the first half, my bet was SMB/North Porth, halftime/full time with and odds of
7.77.

There was no live streaming on the first game, but on the last game today, we have live streaming and we are in the 2nd quarter now.

I like to share the link but it seems not working, but anyway you can just search online as they are only live on facebook.

Good game so far, it's very close and I hope the NP will win in the first half and SMB wins full game.

How about a cash-out from coins.ph to your BPI account? is it still not allowed?

I'm wondering if someone has tried this because I have a BPI account and I want to make a little deposit on my account, by the way, my BPI account is still active and all transactions are coming from coins.ph prior to this announcement. So what's the risk if I will deposit now?
4291  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Are the bulls back? on: September 26, 2021, 07:00:25 AM
According to chart history there have been bull odds going back in October and November to start with and peaking in December and early January for some other coins, if indeed the market repeats history.
otherwise the calculation will change.
That was one year ago, and for sure it will not happen this year as we have enough bullish movement this year. Prior to the last year's bull run, the market has been struggling in 2018 to 2020, so it needs a long correction or bearish movement before we will see another bull run and see it break the current ATH of bitcoin.
And looks like we are heading to a new correction now as the market is very unpredictable, and most of its movements are bearish already. It has struggled to break the $50k price again, and today, the market dump with the China news, probably, so I guess we should prepare ourselves as we might be going down to $30k.

This is the news that makes the market dumped. https://techcrunch.com/2021/09/24/china-says-all-cryptocurrency-related-transactions-are-illegal/



We don't know yet if it will hold at the current price, but it looks to go down below $40k and then it will continue to drop.
Though this kind of news from China is not new to us, there's still an impact to the market, so we can't just disregard it, it could have a long term effect as well.

The news is legit, but look at its effect on the market, it's only a little dump compared to the price bitcoin has increased in the past few months. This FUD will not last, people know about it already and it will not affect them significantly anymore. China announces bad news, little market reaction but if China announces good news about crypto, for sure it will result to a new bull run.
4292  Local / Pamilihan / Re: Cebu City government eyeing crypto payments on: September 25, 2021, 08:55:51 PM
Sa akin lang ha, although welcoming naman ito na ma recognize yung cryptocurrencies sa Cebu City, ang concern lang naman dito is yung funds collected by the Cebu City government with cryptocurrencies, hindi kontrolado ng Central Bank.

May sariling stablecoin si C Peso pero under sa Ethereum network, so good luck na lang sa gas fees.

Hindi tayo dapat mag worries diyan dahil government yan at tiyak may audit na magaganap. Mas maganda nga yan dahil nasa blockchain, madali lang ang tracing, kung ganyan na ang sistema sa pagbabayad ng tax sa bansa, maaring unti unti ng mawawala ang corruption. Good initiative by the government of Cebu, gamitin ang technology para sa improvement.

Kung walang mangyayaring hokusfocus alam naman natin na dito sa bansa natin kahit imposible nagagawan ng paraan pagdating sa pera, pero kung talagang sa blockchain agad iapapsok yan malamang sa malamang wala ng magagawang kalokohan dyan unless may third party baka pumasok sa blockchain system. Maganda talagang initiatibo  ang hakbang na ito ng Cebu government sana nga talagang mag success at ma adopt din ng ibang mga cities dito sa ating bansa. malaking tulong ang maiiaambag ng crypto kung sakaling maunawaan ng mas madami nating mga kababayan.

Meron pa rin yan corruption dahil yung mga under the table hindi naman mawawala yun, ang maganda lang sa blockchain ay hindi na nila kayang ma tampred and resibo dahil yung amount paid ay nandon na sa blockchain, so kung gagawa sila ng anomalyo, doon nalang sa mga transactions na hindi nila bibigyan ng resibo, at gagawan nalang nila ng pabor para bumaba ang tax due.
4293  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Time to buy some low cap coins on: September 25, 2021, 07:14:08 PM
When many people want and try to be able to buy good coins why should we choose to try to collect cheap coins. From the list of cheap coins that you put on that list, none of them attracted me to buy them. Now is the right time to buy the top coins because they are still at a low price.
The matter about liking certain coins is a very personal thing although in general everyone likes good coins that are well known in cryptocurrency, well in this case if you don't like all the coins on the list I don't think it will be a problem because everyone has their own choice at a certain time like now.

Cheap coins being the basis is not enough, you should also know the potential of the project based on how the team handles it if they are professional enough to answer the investors' queries and transparent with their updates. There's a lot of cheap coins but doesn't have a working team, it's still useless, so do rather look at the team first then the marketcap as you can also say it's cheap if the marketcap is low.

Yeah, read the Wiggins case, not sure how the NBA are going to treat this one. It's not about himself, but this team and the whole NBA. Not sure why he doesn't want to take the vaccine when everyone around him has taken the shot.
If it's not compulsory, there's nothing the team can do about it.

He maybe won't be forced to get vaccinated but it will affect the team's performance as he has to sit in home games according to the report.

https://www.forbes.com/sites/tommybeer/2021/09/23/warriors-wiggins-reportedly-wont-get-vaccinated-and-so-may-miss-all-home-nba-games/?sh=68cafee024ae

Quote
Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins, the team’s second-leading scorer last season, has remained steadfast in his refusal to get vaccinated, according to multiple published reports, a decision that could have a significant impact on the Warriors team, as unvaccinated players could be forced to sit out home games due to local vaccine-related regulations.

He is putting the GSW season at risk of losing games because without him, they will not be complete, so his decision could be detrimental to the team.

Curious lang kabayan, anong meron sa darating na Lunes? hehe, parang hindi ko na gets ang sinasabi mo, may bago na naman bang announcement or implementation sila na hindi natin alam?
Baka magtratransact sya using coinsph, since bihira naman magannounce si coinsph especially kapag tungkol sa mga updates. Until now, wala na talaga yung confirmations or yung pag fill up ng details kung saan galing ang pera, hinde lang naten alam sa nga darating na araw, baka magkaroon ng bagong surprise update si coinsph.

Haha, now ko lang na realize, kaya pala nasabi niya sa Lunes dahil sahod ng signature campaign na sinalihan niya, so that's the time na mag transact siya sa coins.ph, but I tell you @isaac_clarke22, wala na talagang mga prompt message, normal transaction nalang, gaya ng dati.
4296  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: September 24, 2021, 09:52:37 PM

Last game, Pringle, C. Stand, and Tenorio all played over 40 minutes, I can see the fatigue here and I think it's gonna be a low scoring game as the Ginebra despite being undermanned will try to win this game, however, trying is not enough if they missed two of their huge contributor.

This is a good point, and probably I will take the under because the Ginebra will have to slow down here so these 3 players will not gas out in the end. It's just a one day rest and they are back again, worst is they are in a situation where they could be eliminated if they lose this game.

The under is attractive because the line is only 176.5. In Ginebra's last game, they only made 66 points while Meralco made 79 points, so the total is only 145 points which is very low. I also check the odds now, and there's a movement already, Phoenix is down to +1.5 from its opening of +2.5. I would not surprise if the Phoenix will soon become the favorite in this game.

Dadami ang papasok na pera kung tatanggapin ng bansa natin ang bitcoin as legal tender. Wala namang masamang implication kung maging legal tender ang bitcoin, nasa pandemic tayo ngayon, kailangan natin ng making taxes para maibangon ang economy natin, siguro high time na para maging aggressive ang bansa natin sa pag tanggap at pag regulate ng crypto.

Habang ang ibang bansa ay unti unti ng tumatanggap, siguro as developing country, makakatulong ito para sa atin at sa mga mamamayang Pilipino.

Sana sa darating na halalan, iboto rin natin ang presidente na open sa pag legalized ng bitcoin as a legal tender.
4299  Local / Pamilihan / Re: Additional Requirement from CoinsPh on: September 24, 2021, 01:58:24 PM
Dati nung nag implement sila, lahat ng transactions mo kailangan kang mag fill up, so kung meron kang 10 transactions, dapat fill up ka rin ng 10 pero it doesn't mean na hindi mo pwdeng i transact ang laman ng coins.ph mo, in my experience, cash out ko muna bago ako mag fill up or sabay ko nalang fill up ang form.

For now, wala ng ganyan, balik sa dati na sila at wala rin naman akong na rereceive na message na kung ano ano.
4300  Local / Pamilihan / Re: Coins.ph requiring account statement from cryptocurrency trading & cash-out bank on: September 23, 2021, 01:35:28 PM
Same experience, naka pag transact ako today at wala namang hiningi katulad ng dati, ang weird nga, bigla nalang nawala, siguro na realized nila na mali yung implementation sila, wala rin naman kasing official announcement regarding sa pagrequire and now pagtanggal.

Nawala iyong source funds na hinihingi sa cashout? Maybe it received a backlash from the community and marami ang na-confuse. Di lang dito sa forum about campaign earnings but mas marami pa rin ang gumagamit ng coins.ph for crypto transactions sa labas ng forum na ito.

That's good. Pero iyong additional documents di yan mawawala. Nandoon lang yan sa noticed sa mobile app sa baba ng balance. Kakareceived ko lang sa akin pero since Binance na ako, di ako nagcocomply muna. Hayaan ko muna iyong noticed.

Yes totally wala na talaga, maraming beses ako nag transact today wala ng requirement tulad ng dati. Kung hihingi naman sila ng documents, siguro isasabay nalang nila sa update ng KYC verification dahil ginagawa naman nila yon every year.
