I had also place my bet already, I booked the under 177.5.
This looked good in the 1st to 3rd quarter but the 4th quarter was about scoring, the game ended at a total of 180 points. So you loss your bet. I remember the point spread was -4.5 for Meralco, that could have easily win as the Gin Kings already wasted time but with 5 seconds left I guess, I don't understand why Meralco still choose to score despite the fact that they are already down 6 points, as a sign of respect, they should have already wasted the time since there's no point quotient already. I smell fishy on that last play.. hmmmm.. Turned out, Meralco covered the +4.5 because Ginebra won only by 4 points because of that no necessary shot.

Do we expect to hear another fans that threatened players because of that last shot? I used to remember Mambatac when he took that last shot even there's no way that they can win or tie the game, he was threatened in his social media accounts and really put some noise about that, as the gambler who loses their bets thinks that Mambatac messed it up, is this another some sort of same situation where someone takes it even there's no chance of winning the game but the sole purpose is to messed  with the handicap. Hahaha just saying.. but for those who pick the handicap for the Gin kings just need to move forward and try to analyze the next game then place a bet..

Predictable indeed, they are just so lucky that they exploded for 39 points in the first quarter and have a comfortable 17 points lead, if not for that they might have lost the game. Moving forward, ROS will face SMB Beermen in the semis which i think the Beermen will win as the Elastopainters don't have anyone that could stop the Kraken down low.

That's for sure, and aside from the SMB which is already a good 3 point shooters, they also have players that could attack the paint. The 2nd unit of the SM is more than enough to beat the starters of the ROS, so I doubt it will be a long series, unless.....if you know what I mean.

The spread of the game is already out..

SMB -5.5 vs ROS,. We have the first game of the best of 7 series, I think in the first game they'll come up so confident after the win, especially the ROS who had a great shooting night when they beat the TNT, so I guess it's going to be over. Not taking the spread but I have the ROS to score over 104.5.

The handicap seems so decent as knowing how dominating SMB was, though with the lost against Terrafima maybe that exposed something and maybe coach Yeng will find that fit system to counter SMB's outstanding offensive attakcs, I'm pretty sure there are early gamblers who already take that odds believing that SMB will give them decent profits.

With your pick, not sure if the game will be that high scoring game as SMB is not just good with their offense but they can match the speed and can play that tough defense to counter whatever coach Yeng will use during the game.

I think majority here is rooting for the Mavs to win, it's not that we don't like OKC or SGA, they are a good team, they are the number 1 seed in the West, but I felt that it's not their time to shine, not yet. On the other hand, the Mavs with Luka as putting up a good series against them and the whole team are putting effort for them to win this series against the inexperience OKC. And it also shows their defense as well, with their new acquisition in the trade deadline, anchoring everything with Gafford and PJ Washington. So now the next game will be at Dallas homecourt, one of the loudest arena, it will be crazy if they are going to beat the Thunder.
I think the Mavericks and I'm rooting for them to win because they have the better experience than the OKC. though it's not over yet but it's likely that they'll advance since we are not seeing new from the OKC, it's all SGA and eventually this guy will feel the fatigued, so I think his production will drop. In a do or die game and the Mavs want to finish the series, expect a more physical game, but thus far, OKC can't match the physicality of the Mavericks so that's a big factor why I believe Dallas will finish them in 6.
The Mavs are going to be the favorite entering game 6 and their fans are hoping that they are going to close out the Thunder, but let's see. The other West series has been extended to game 7 by the Wolves. And who knows, the pattern might continue and we will also another classic game 7 between OKC and Mavs. Going back to the Nuggets vs Wolves, ANT delivered what he had promised to his fans but the series is not yet over. Now it's a do or die game, the season is on the line for them and they will have to go to the Nuggets homecourt to beat the defending champ. If they are going to play with the defense that they shown here, they have a good chance to win and advance.

Mavs needs to push and win the game at home, they need to take the advantage of playing in front of their home crow if they win the game they will have that early rest advantage againts the winner between the Wolves and Nuggets, though OKC also bringing the tough fight and not giving them the luxury of dominating the series.

I like the way Wolves adjusted and bring that tough games agaisnt the defending champ, if they can duplicate the way they played today, the chance of snatching this series may take place.

More on how these both teams will play their final game it will be an interesting final game 7.

The decision you take really matters and being over confident is something that cost you a lot and you should try to keep some knowledge and understanding? Sometimes I call gambling the war grand that cost someone to be happy and unhappy, it is not just easy you need to remove emotion and put some level of focus it will be fine with your gambling process should be done with a smart decision.

If a gambler does not have good knowledge and understanding in gambling and they carry out their gambling activities with full confidence, this is clearly a fatal mistake because having a strong sense of self-confidence can influence them to gamble excessively because people who already believe themselves, then they will be braver in taking action without seeing and assessing first whether the next result will be good or bad for them.
Yes, you are right, we should just have fun while gambling and we must also have a good understanding of intelligence so that gambling does not cause new problems in our lives.

Why would a new gambler decide to feel overconfident while gambling? It could be due to the information they have about gambling. And how certain it is for them to win big in gambling. False pre knowledge of gambling leads most players to think they've known it all. Contrarily, as you said it, zuzie, players need to be experienced before having some confidence while gambling. That wouldn't be a wrong move. As staying confident will help the experienced player to be relaxed and enjoy the game. Although the dangers are still they if the player losses their control. However it wouldn't be simple for an experienced player to lose form compared to a new gambler who knows nothing of self control and financial limitations.

Yes, your opinion may be correct. When someone wants to enter the world of gambling, they hear fun things about gambling so that person will become more confident in entering and being able to get what they want in the casino.
Yes, experienced gamblers are indeed different from novice gamblers. The final difference is clearly visible in terms of self-control when playing, limiting time and bets when playing gambling and there is also in terms of thinking and awareness, namely experienced gamblers appear more confident because they have previously had good experience. or bad, while novice gamblers appear confident, if they are not equipped with the right knowledge, then beginners will often lose due to this excessive behavior.

Experienced gamblers who manage to work on their gambling activities use that advantages in preventing addiction, they setup the limits and by the experienced they gain around they now that staying with the set limitations allows them not to risk a lot, though there's time that they still overexceed from the set limit but they immidiately cope up and stop.

The key factor is to follow whatever you setup and always avoid following your emotions, which mostly put you in deciding something that you might regret after.

So we have SGA and ANT as the future of the NBA right now, and again even if they are eliminated in this series against Jokic and Luka, this for sure will stamped in their memory and will improved drastically in the next season. One hour the game will start between the Nuggets and the Wolves, I will definitely watch this game, but not betting though, just enjoying and may the best team wins and goodluck to all bettors.
They're likely to be the face of the NBA and I agree. The old era of veterans and superstars are about to end anytime soon.

And going with Wolves and Nuggets match later, I want to see Nuggets end it already so that we see another match up. But a part of me is telling to see more of ANT to be honest.

May the best team win then.

Wolves dominated the Nuggets in each quarters of the game, the tough defense and that good rotations of the players, they are not willing to end this series pushing one more game, by looking and watching the game Nuggets offense is really bad they've been limited to score only 70 points bad shooting night for Murray and Gordon's help ain't been felt, Wolves didn't waste the money of all their fans and supporters as they come up strong showing how ready they are for today's game and they are not willing to take their vacation but instead pushing the series and see if how luck will help them to snatch the conference finals from the defending champ.

Why wouldn't majority of the viewer keep getting misleaded? Since we want to make fast money and the only place we could go is to online to check and follow influencers that are looking for money for themselves. We need to be wise and make sure we don't become so ignorant of what in happening im the world were so many influencers could go extra miles just to make money from their followers. We need to always make decisions for ourselves not trying to make money by all means we can always seek for help around us. Influencers are no good choice for us and we need to make sure we follow the right path.

Nobody is to be blamed. Looking at the troubles some players add to their gambling journey, you'd notice its caused by negligence. Gambling owns a policy that restricts players who are not 18 years old from being participants. But, promoted in platforms with no age restrictions. They chose those platforms for more reachability and exposure regardless of who is there or not.

So as to get their targets, they involuntary feel reluctant of limiting those ads from getting to the underaged this, then, will lure the young people to boycott the gambling policy. However, it's not wrong to promote gambling on such platforms. Yet, something lacks in the niche, the need to teach people to focus on responsible gambling habit. Those who get mislead wouldn't have been a victim if they were enrolled in some ways to learn responsible gambling.


It's true that responsible promotion is important. Sure, gambling policies typically restrict participation to those under 18, but, unfortunately, advertisements for gambling can be seen even on platforms accessible to all ages, including kids and teens.

It's crucial for the gambling industry not to target or draw in young people through their ads. Achieving this could mean curtailing the channels where these ads surface more rigidly and also checking that the content doesn't catch the eye of a younger audience, ensuring its irrelevance to them.

Moreover, responsible gambling education is essential. When people, including the youth population, are informed about the risks and duties connected to gambling, they will have better chances of making prudent decisions. This involves realizing the significance of limitations as well as being able to identify addiction signs and knowing one should stop.

Yeah right, responsible promotion helps to avoid getting more people to this alluring offers, though we all knew that promoters are all after with the potential profits that they will gain from the site that they are working, it's more on referrals or an actual offers from the casino to bring more people to use the platform.

We don't have any control on how this streamers will promote the site and most of the time, we also don't have that capabilities to monitor our love ones from time to time.

It's something that we really need to extend our hands if we want to protect those young audience and the people who we care about.

But the good catch with strategy if you are practicing it over and over you'll might have that good chance of controlling yourself, more on emotional control that helps a lot in terms of making good decision especially in times of stopping yourself, both situation either you are in the losing side or on the winning side, you'll be able to make something decent and continue to work on it polishing the potential and always be on the right track, strategy works when the person who created it knows how to practice and not to overexceed with the limitation that he setup.

Yes, if we carry out a good strategy consistently, the results will be good for ourselves, even though initially the strategy we implemented had bad results, but slowly we will try to study and study to improve the strategy so that it is good and appropriate, the most important thing is if we If we are sure that the strategy we are implementing does not pose a bad risk in our lives, we must consistently carry it out until we really find the right and appropriate strategy for ourselves and by consistently implementing it we will definitely get maximum results as we expect. .

With the knowledge we gain in each bad outcome it will help to developed a good practice with the strategy that we created, as long as we are good in controlling every emotions that we have and we are willing to adjust and not to dwell with every mistake and keep repeating that same thing when we play, strategy may work and may fit to your type of gambling practices as long as you are fully aware and you are good in all the factors that you need to reflect with your gambling participations.
448  Economy / Gambling / Re: My betting strategies on: May 16, 2024, 01:19:40 PM
Indeed, there are things that manage to boost the confidence of the players/teams that the automated odds maker unable to foreseen, some kind of extra efforts that each individuals comes up with and manage to use it as inspiration to win the game, I see your point where the readable stats basis can't provide, it's more on how you understand the potential and yes, it's more on how luck guided you to win.

With those who gamble, there are those who believe that the strategy they have can produce something they really want. It's true what you said, there are also things that have succeeded in increasing their self-confidence, including the strategy they believe in, which in my opinion is also one of the things that makes them confident when gambling, so that they think about the strategy they have. it can make them get what they want.

However, even though they have a strategy, it doesn't guarantee it completely, because in my opinion the strategy they have or believe in is still under luck. So if for example we don't have luck then the results will still be disappointing. I agree with you, maybe it's more about how luck guides you to win.

A gambling strategy will definitely be in the mind and heart of the gambler because with a gambling strategy a gambler will be more confident and have a strong belief that his strategy will help facilitate his gambling activities that he has chosen well. Yes, sometimes strategy is not a guarantee of winning when gambling, but at least we can use strategy as best as possible to minimize losing a lot of money.

But the good catch with strategy if you are practicing it over and over you'll might have that good chance of controlling yourself, more on emotional control that helps a lot in terms of making good decision especially in times of stopping yourself, both situation either you are in the losing side or on the winning side, you'll be able to make something decent and continue to work on it polishing the potential and always be on the right track, strategy works when the person who created it knows how to practice and not to overexceed with the limitation that he setup.

Kung dati is okay lang maka recieved ng tawag from unknown kasi madalas online parcel, o di kaya naman ay mga job inquiry ngayon naman is nakaka duda na sumagot ng calls kasi nga dahil sa mga scams na ito, hindi kaya yung information talaga natin is na benta na or leak somewhere kasi napaka rami nilang oras para gawin ung mga ito at another thing is may alam silang background satin lalo na pag gagawa tayo ng mga transaction na notify agad sila. Always stay vigilant guys pag tingin nyo suspicious agad out nyo na wag mag papadala agad.

         Ako kasi ang ginagawa ko kapag may unknown number hindi ko talaga sinasagot, unless nalang kung magtex at magpakilala ay dun ko palang sasagutin.  Ang nakakaduda lang kasi talaga ay yung pano nakakalusot ang mga yan na walang rehistro yung mga mga simcard nila, tapos yung simcard no. pa ay dito rin sa bansa din naman ang lumalabas sa mga cellphone natin.

        Kaya lumalabas talaga ay may nagleak ng ating mga information talaga, at san ba posibleng magleak yan diba siyempre sa mga network provider sim natin lang. Napakahirap ng ganitong mga sitwasyon sa actually.

Same here! May mga days na sumasagot ako ng calls kahit unregistered lalo na kung may ineexpect akong call or email tulad ng job interviews or online delivery pero yung out of nowhere may biglang tatawag, nakakapagtaka pa nga dahil may mga overseas calls pa from UK and New Zealand eh wala naman akong relatives or kakilala na taga doon kaya mapapaisip ka nalang kung saan nila nakukuha phone numbers natin.

         -   Ang mga obvious pa na phishing link yung meron akong nakikita na nagnonotify sa aking cellphone na I will received 1000 pesos kapag sinagot ko yung call via share it, at yung iba naman may free 100 php daw ako na matanggap iclick lang daw yung link via share it, then yung iba naman mga casino link ang binibigay na obviously mga trap link talaga.

Kaya yung mga mabibiktima lang nito ay yung mga wala talagang alam sa ganitong mga istilo ng mga scammer o hackers. Lalo na yung otp hihingin isang red flag talaga yun dahil once na maibigay mo ito yari kana talaga.



Oo nga kabayan un mga walang alam talaga sila ung kawawa kasi may chance na mahihkayat sila na mag click dahil nga dun sa offer na libre, ang dating kasi lalo na dun sa mga matatanda na makakarecieve ng ganitong message mabilis sila maniwala at ayun na nga biktima na agad sila ng mga scammer thank you na pag nagclick at sigurado delikado na yung mga mabibiktima ang gagaling nung mga gunggong na hacker na yan eh..

I guess if they can't bring Mikey back maybe Chris Newsome might fit with how coach Chot execute his running game attacks.

The guy would really be a help to the team because he has the talent, unfortunately he demands a lot of money that's why they can't close a contract with him. I guess Newsome would really fit, he is not really a good scorer but he'll be able to improve the defense of the team, so let's see if that will happen since it's possible as he is playing with the sister team. TNT team needs some rebump as this current lineup is not a championship team anymore.

Though I'm heaing some rumor that Newsome might be traded to Gin kings but chances to be traded to his main team might be possible, not sure if MVP group will push for it and let his main squad to be competitive against his rival company, Oftana needs someone who can help him developing more of his talent and since both Newsome and him are playing for the National squad I guess the connection is no longer hard to established.

Second game, that's a nerve breaking escape after having a comfortable lead TNT manage to rally back and almost snatch the game to coach Yeng, luckily they escaped and will now move forward for the semis.

ROS are so predictable as they relied so much on outside shooting, I think the same with TNT, and since ROS shoot better in that game, they won the game. What I'm really impress is on how Kelly Williams played that game, he is already 42 years old and still competing very well, can even drive in the paint and score, and that game, he score 3 straight 3 point shots with less than a minute remaining, that's unbelievable.

Predictable indeed, they are just so lucky that they exploded for 39 points in the first quarter and have a comfortable 17 points lead, if not for that they might have lost the game. Moving forward, ROS will face SMB Beermen in the semis which i think the Beermen will win as the Elastopainters don't have anyone that could stop the Kraken down low.


Like what coach Yeng said from his interview there's no 2nd five as all the players can be consider as 1st five but they will fight and hope for some luck to help them win a game against the super team. Let see if how they will execute the system and what strategy they will use in trying to be competitve as it can be.
451  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Double your money and quite on: May 16, 2024, 10:54:20 AM
If we keep repeating the same mistake again and again then nobody can save us and we will eventually end up in huge trouble.
If you know that you are losing frequently then you should just quit gambling for sometime and control your urge to gamble and chase losses.
This self control is needed and that is what OP is talking about since he quits right after winning his desired amount.

I think your response shows a fresh perspective of what Op is talking about. First, I thought Op is introducing a new strategy that only encourage players to stop whenever they win double their wagered amount. That's a lame way of gambling. It's not meant to be immediately. Still, regardless of my view, it's true, self control is required to execute properly this strategy.

However, the urge to move further and gamble can be strong enough to remove this strategy from the thoughts of a no self control player. Hence, when utilizing such a technique I'd recommend accepting more losses in the process. A player can't successfully win consistent money in every session he plays. And some session can be too filled with losses that the player would mind stopping but his strategy demands he doubles the funds before leaving. That sounds unacceptable!

You don't win all the time in casinos, so it's good that when we play we are mature enough to accept things as they are, I used to play a lot with the martingale, now I don't do anything about that guy. of strategy, much less go for the All-in and see how I can win, because that is like saying goodbye to money and that can't happen to me anymore, that's why when you bet with a lot of money I don't recommend it, because the losses They are very big and that is Something that Makes you feel bad as a person, so it is better to play with other types of strategies.


You don't win indeed, but the chance is also possible as you can take some chance of getting lucky and be wise enough to quit while you still have that chance, I guess we all have different perspectives in terms of our gambling strategy and the system that we intend to use, but the big factor is on how we control our emotion and how good we are in managing our finances,

if you make a good practice in following whatever setup and limitation that you take the strategy will be effective and the chance of making decent profits might take place, but if you don't have that good practice, even you set up good system to follow the chance of busting it up will always be behind.
452  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling addiction causes loss on: May 16, 2024, 10:41:59 AM
Some people rely don’t understand this gambling thing, you need to take a maximum precaution to avoid unnecessary losses and to avoid being in difficult situations because of over gambling and it will result to something bad and you may not even like the next action, over gambling is not good and don’t advise anybody to do that

In gambling there is always this possibility that we lose our bankroll no matter how we put maximum precaution there is always a chance for our bankroll to get emptied.  What we need in this case is responsible gambling wherein we allocate a certain percentage of our bankroll and stick with it no matter how strong the temptation of chasing losses.  This way we will be able to minimize our losses and may be able to extend our existing bankroll for another gambling session.

That's right, that's what all gamblers should understand that no matter how good you are and no matter how many ways you have, losing will always be a very possible thing, or as you said and I agree with it that even though we have risk management that we apply as much as possible such as applying various precautions and limits, the risk of losing will always be a possible thing to happen.

Or what it means is that no matter how good your risk management is the possibility of losing will always be possible because after all the risk of losing will always be a part that can never be separated in gambling, but one of the reasons why we are always advised to apply a lot of precautions in our gambling activities is by having such an approach then we will avoid the possibility of losing too significant as experienced by gambling addicts who always overdo it and do not put limits on their gambling as you said which is an effective idea to minimize the possibility of losing too significant and keep us safe in the long run.

No matter what there's always big chance that you will lose, as even how deep the research and analysis, inside gambling risk is always at stake, you need to make sure that you have that strong capabilities to accept the outcome and always moving forward and not to allow your emotions to dwell with your defeat, as the chance that aggression will dominates you and you'll be force to keep placing your bet as long as you have the money to use.

From that stand point, you will extend your time and add more money which mostly cause of addiction and losing more money that you are not intending to use for your gambling activities.

Sometimes there are gamblers who have lost but want to turn things around so they think "maybe in the next gambling game I will get a win that can turn things around" they hope that luck will come to them, whereas luck cannot be expected to happen as desired, luck will happen with itself. Don't think about being able to reverse the situation, in my opinion it will only make things worse. You have to be patient when gambling, because when the time comes, luck is on your side, then winning cannot be avoided.

Good words, brother. Indeed, nothing affects luck. The fact that you were unlucky many times before doesn't imply that you will be lucky next time or any time soon. Many gamblers do that mistake, believing that luck has some kind of schedule. No, it hasn't. Luck will strike you whenever it wants. It can be several times in a row and it's possible that you won't see it for years.

That's true, we don't have any control with when luck will trigger for us, the only thing that we can control is when to stop when luck is showing and helping us, that good control may give us the opportunities to leave the house with decent amount of winnings, and moving back to the topic, it's not a good practice to lean with your luck and place all your money in a single bet hoping that your next roll will give you the winning result that you are anticipating, most of the time, it will turned against us and if we are using the amount that we are not willing to let go, that regret will keeps showing each time you remember your mistake.
454  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do some people hide to gamble on: May 16, 2024, 09:08:07 AM
That's true because there's a negative point of view of the society when it's come to gambling. They'd judge you quickly and you shouldn't gamble then but still, you do it and chose to hide.

If there is no judgemental society and culture, many will simply be showy and won't be scared to say that they're gamblers.
Gambling and gamblers comes with a high stigma in the society. All gamblers are seen to be addict even without prior knowledge of who this individual is, what the individual is capable of, their finances or how often they gamble. Once they find you gambling, your an addict and an irresponsible individual. No one wants to be tagged or associated with such an image and so they turn to hiding.
This is a position I don’t find myself often although, I keep my gambling life private, away from family but, it doesn’t consider what the society feels in it, just my family as, I’ll hate for them to have the wrong idea of me.
That's the truth.

If you tell anyone that you're a gambler, they'd think you as a an addicted gambler without having any second thought. It is embedded to the thoughts of many that every gambler is an addicted gambler even not all of us are addicted.

We gamble but we're not addicted. That's the stigma as you've said that are in our society and there is no boundaries on this because in every country, it seems that it's always been like that and the case.

But if you win a lot then those people will start showing up pretending that they are happy with your success, but the truth behind it, the criticizm that always inside other people mindsets regarding to your gambling activities, like what you mentioned there are gamblers who can play maturely and not having any issue with addiction, gambler who got agood control with their gambling participation but needed to hide things just to avoid any direct and indirect criticizm.

Yes must people don’t like to gamble in a public because of how people may sees them and the thought of people about them, it really feels like they are exposing a lot things,and because of the money they stake make them not to be public and I also like keeping my gambling from to know exactly what do and how I get my money, some actually do get much money from gambling and you may not know until you understand the process.


Yup, there are experienced gamblers who can do that, with established experienced they can control both the emotion and their money managements, and most of them are discreetly enjoying the benefits.
455  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Rich or poor gambler, who should risk more? on: May 16, 2024, 07:29:44 AM
they've got the resources and it will be an easy journey for them to forget about the lose amount, while with poor even how small the amount, they still feel that money and in a little mistake they can feel that losses coming out from their finances and it will hurt something though not the basic needs but something that the money can be use but they lose it in gambling.
In reality, things are like this, it is a fact that this problem that we could define as social occurs throughout the world in any country, because there will always be people who have enough memories to afford to lose all the money they can give , but of course, there comes a time when you will lose a lot of money and most people will have to stop, those types of clients are the best for casinos, because in part they are whales, on the other hand I think that most people They are from the middle class, from the lower class and things are very difficult for them after losing money in the casino, especially those who lose more than this amount that they are allowed to lose , because they get into a tremendous mess, because they begin to lack basic things.



Situation like this where you lose amount of money that you not willing to let go will push you to keep trying, and this kind of mentlaity is the one that casino owners loves to see inside their platforms, the chance of those kind of gamblers who can turn themselves into addicted gambler, they will keep putting more money and will soon lose everything.

Both rich and poor gamblers can turn into this type of gamblers and they will keep losing as the toxic that gambling brings inside their brain will dominates them and lead them to keep playing no matter what the outcome will be.

This is something that anyone can convert themselves if they are not good in controlling their emotions not just poor but also those rich gamblers around.

The key players today are Derrick Jones Jr. and PJ Washington, still no show on the offensive end for Kyrie Irving. I hope he is preserving all that power in Game 6 because they will need him to show up. It's like his confidence is shattered or he is just too focused on passing the ball. Twice, he had the opportunity to shoot the ball near the rim and yet he still passed it to the big man which led to a turnover and one got lucky that Gafford was fouled.
Still, Luka was so unstoppable in the offensive end shooting threes way outside and distributing the ball so accurately to give his team an open shot.

Mavs is still doing good even if Kyrie is not putting the points that we expect him to do in this playoff. But with Luka's triple double and then the Lively, Jones and Washington giving enough support for Luka to steal one at OKC homecourt. I don't know though the crowd there, they are not that loud as compare to other fans to let's say Madison Square Garden.

Anyhow, it's the inexperience of the Thunder are in full display here, it's only SGA that putting points. There was one instance that Chet was block for a great dunk by Jones Jr and it stop their run as they were able to cut the lead into single digit. So finals in the West could be Nuggets vs Mavs.

It's really good to see that those fresh legs are really lifting and helping Luka in producing numbers, though like what you mentioned Kyrie's productions is not that impacting but he's presence already creates impacts as the respect on the defensive side really giving his teammates enough spaces to create thier shots.

Meanwhile, with OKC that inexperieced side the support for SGA is barely needed if they want to extend this series he can't carry the load alone, the competition between him and Luka will rely on how the super cores will bring all in helping them in winning the series.

Second game, that's a nerve breaking escape after having a comfortable lead TNT manage to rally back and almost snatch the game to coach Yeng, luckily they escaped and will now move forward for the semis.

ROS are so predictable as they relied so much on outside shooting, I think the same with TNT, and since ROS shoot better in that game, they won the game. What I'm really impress is on how Kelly Williams played that game, he is already 42 years old and still competing very well, can even drive in the paint and score, and that game, he score 3 straight 3 point shots with less than a minute remaining, that's unbelievable.

Aside from being a fil-am he's also a former MVP as conditioning both mental and physical may gave him that extra edge from those players who at in his age now, but yeah that's really impressive machine gun Kelly shows his best for sure if they snatch that game he's all in the sports headline bringing that age at the top of his game.

They need additional scorer that's what they are missing right now, I guess if they can't bring Mikey back maybe Chris Newsome might fit with how coach Chot execute his running game attacks.

Wow! Ang lupit nung NYK. Ibang klase talaga ang puso lalo na si Jalen Brunson. Si Hartenstein parang binigyan ng mission na e-contest talaga ang bola every time may attempt ang koponan nila lalo na ang liliit na ng line-up nila. Well done talaga. Binawian at winalanghiya rin nila Pacers at malaking tulong to para makapagboost sa kanilang morale para tapusin na ang series sa game 6.

Sa ibang laro naman, ayon na nga ang sleeping giant na defending champions tuluyan ng nagising at winasak ulit ang Twolves. Hayop na accuracy pinapakita ng Denver. Kung tama pagka-alala ko ay napakataas ang kanilang shooting accuracy simulang nanalo sila nung game 3. Tapos na yata ang series nato.

Lupit talaga ng leadership ni Brunson grabe pinakitang performance at talagang yun supporta ng mga kasama nya ang lalong nagpaangat ng performance nya, hindi nila binigo yung mga fans nila at talagang grabeng pagkadominante nila sa laro need na lang nila ng isa pang panalo para makaabante na sa conference finals, pero syempre hindi agad agad matatapos ng ganun ganun na lang uuwi pa ulit sa Indiana at dun naman nila susubukan manalo para tapusin na ang series.

Pagdating naman sa series ng Denver at Wolves grabe yung naging adjustments na ginawa ng coach at mga players ng Nuggets talagang hindi na pinapaporma ang Wolves malamang sa malamang balik conference finals na ang defending Champ!

In my opinion there is a case to be made that the majority of the influencers are indeed misleading their viewers with their content, and this is because we know the majority of them are either gambling with play money or doing so with money given by the casino, so they are not at risk of losing a single dollar with their actions, but by promoting their big wins, that will never be paid off, and by hiding the fact they are not using real money, they are deceiving their viewers, which will use their income to gamble and suffer real losses.
with those influencers who definitely promote the gambling they do, it's possible that they actually work together with gambling companies, with those influencers who gamble in large amounts, in my opinion, that proves that they actually collaborate with gambling companies, also with the gambling they do. that can make them win easily, that's the goal to attract lots of people and make them addicted to gambling. However, it is not surprising that many people are interested, because the lure of victory that is easy to obtain is a strong attraction too.

Sometimes I think that it doesn't seem like they are gambling using their personal money, because the amounts are so large. Even though there are people who can gamble with large amounts of bets, I think those who have made a lot of money are unlikely to gamble just to make money too, that's unlikely.
We dont precisely be able to know on what are their agreements whether there would really be some sort of manipulative approach or tweaks that makes those kind of streams to be looking like a winner most of the time on which some people would really be that skeptical on how they do often hitting up those huge multipliers specially on slot gaming streams on which it is really that looking too good to be true if you are really that someone whose really that get used to slot games. We do know that it would really be just that depending on how lucky you are when dealing up with slots but there are really those moments or conditions on which you would really be having those thoughts that it is really just that unusual on how these streamers that winning up the game, as if it is really that too good to be true, eh?

I agree to that,  we don't know what's behind the deal especially those kinds of unusual outcomes that we've seen with those streamers who's promoting the casino as you know inside you that only luck will  help in real gaming sessions but seeing it with streamers hitting long winning streaks as it's so easy to them to keep taking money out from the house that's something that you'll doubt that's really happening,  though we can't deny it  that there are gamblers who's been allured by this kind of promotions and hopeful that they'll also experience that same outcome.

I was just playing Hi-Lo, making small dollar bets, if it's 5 number card I select higher card and win, if it's 10 number then I go with 'low' and win.

Then I was greeted with Ace card, minimal possibility for equal card right (i.e, Ace), so I go all in, and guess what happens, the result is Ace means I lost the bet.

Then I have all sorts of thoughts blaming casino, like do they manipulate the result of the game when user goes all in. I am sure they are all fair, it's just that the possibility of losing the game may be minimal but it's never 0.
In gambling, you cannot avoid risk under any circumstances. Because of this, you should not bet such an amount that if you lose, you will lose your entire amount. Gambling is a critical thing where it is as easy to win as it is to lose.  Here when you place a bet you have to accept that you are going to lose the amount of that bet but if you can win then it will offer you a bonus and if you lose then you will not suffer. so do not get panic when you gamble. just gamble with fresh mind and keep small amount of bet every time.

If you can keep that kind of practice then it will be enjoyable for you when you gamble, but when you use the amount that you are unwilling to let go expect the stress to haunt you  as most of the time your usual reaction is to regret and worse try to add more money to try recovering your losses which can lead you  to much bigger problem,  it's better to be ready in accepting your fate than trying to push for more that will mostly ended with regrets.
