I think there’s more down to come, if we are following the previously seen 4 year cycles. I don’t think we will close a day below $20,000 again though. I am going to wait for lower before I buy more again but that doesn’t mean buying now is a bad idea. DCA’ing here is still a good idea.

Yes, I got the OP's point, perhaps those who are who doesn't want to buy at this price is not afraid per se. Maybe they are just beginners in crypto market and doesn't know how to react with the cycle. Like the one that we are into right now, it's bearish so meaning the price of bitcoin is down and will continue to go down. So strategies like buying the dip and dollar cost average is very effective strategy in this cycle to accumulate. And perhaps once those beginners gain the experience in the next bull run that they will realized their mistakes.

Noticed that too from Tatum, he didn't force himself to score but made a wiser decisions,

13 assist really help them in winning the game, while it's more on Harford's heroic offense but the team that didn't give up
snatch a game from the home team.

On the one hand, 13 assists is a good result, but on the other hand, Tatum's performance in the first match of the final series was terrible. It looks like the Warriors figured out a way to defend against him well, given that he was only able to score 3 out of 17 shots. In addition, Tatum did almost nothing during the 4th quarter while his teammates were making that incredible comeback.
I actually look for Tatum to have a good game 2. https://www.foxsports.com/nba/jayson-tatum-player-game-log?season=2021&seasonType=post Here is a log of all his stats in this years post season and if you notice, everytime he had a shit game scoring under 20 points, he scored 30+ the next game. He hasn't had 2 back to back games under 20 points. His 13 assists is the most he has had throughout the whole post season as well. I don't see him getting that many in game 2.

Yeah, it's just one of those game that really everyone was caught by surprised by how the Celtics team win the game. Tatum didn't score that much just 12 points, but in the assists department is where he excel with that huge 13 assists. Maybe this he is really coming of age with this kind of performance that will separate him from the new breed of superstars and there are basketball analyst that even compare him to the young Kobe Bryant. It's too early to tell but he has shown some signs of being a great player in the next coming years.

If the casino want to be popular to the gambler,they will not do some shady things like blatantly cheating their customer.We know that the house always win,but we can still quit while we are ahead.Regardless of the algorithm technology casino used,as the player we should have self control and don't get greedy.
It might not be directly be spotted at first glance if its just new but sooner or later it would really be discovered if someone do make out some indepth checks and verification towards bets.

We know that there's no perfect system but you could really notice on which business is really going after in long term and to those who are really tending to scam.

You can spot it out if you are veteran enough but of course it would really be justified on some behavior made by them.

If the casino is doing good business and surviving long, it means, they are doing right. Because if they are doing any cheating to their players, at some point, someone will point that out and it will be under investigation. But if no one is complaining for years, it means, they are doing good business. But I think, if someone knows how to check the provable fairness of the game, you can always check it randomly to make sure they are still practicing what they preach.
The community isnt really that blind just as i said earlier on where there's someone would really make out some indepth review or checking whether its fair or not and if they cant find something shady

then its normal that there would be players who do play on the site which it would really be a long lasting kind of situation but it would depend on how the platform would really retain or keep maintain of

those numbers since not all are really good on handling or maintaining players which means that in terms of promotions/bonuses then they should really be that aggressive which is a must.
Fairness is basic or in default because people would find it if ever they would really be having those bad intents.

Yeah, I think everyone has it's 'duty' to really check a gambling platform, how reliable and trusted it is and of course how they are implementing Provably Fair. And we have a method to check that and for sure no casino will continue to exists by this time if they are not going to rightfully implement it as sooner or later a gambler is going to find out what they did causing damage to their reputation.

And that's why majority of us prefer to play on casino's that has somewhat gain the trust of the community. I'm not saying the new casinos are bad, but they have to in the beginning proved to us that they are all fair and that the games in their platform is verifiable.
4564  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Ryan Garcia vs Javier Fortuna - July 19 on: June 05, 2022, 08:26:03 AM
Garcia is young and talented, he will go for more fights most probably but to remain the good hype, he must won against Fortuna or else this can be the start of his falling career.

Compared to Davis, Isaac Cruz, and Romero its a cherry-picked fight but a much better fighter than Tagoe, the Tagoe fight is a huge disappointment because Tagoe keeps ducking and just running all night, things will be different this time against Fortuna because he'll be facing a former two-time champion, depending on the outcome of the fight we'll see if Ryan is ready to take big names, I don't think he is ready against Tank based on his last fight against Tagoe, his promoters need a much more convincing fight.

Yes, Golden Boy shows something in the Tagoe fight that's why he stay away from Isaac Cruz and chooses a small risk, good reward in Javier Fortune. And now that Haney is the undisputed, all roads lead to him right now and Ryan for sure would love to fight Haney in the States.

But first he get to get and win against Fortuna, make it as emphatic victory as he can be. But they have to understand that they won't be the A-side when they deal with Haney or even Tank Davis. They had to agree at what terms this fighters are going to put in the table and Garcia should accept it without hesitation.
4565  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: June 05, 2022, 05:13:34 AM


I think it the odds are still the same in Game 2 for the Celtics.
No, the odds are different in game 2.

Game 1 - Warriors -3.5
Game 2 - Warriors -4.5

That odds tells that Warriors will likely win game 2, it's a must-win for them and for sure they'll cover that spread if their defense will not collapse.

Just a fraction though, and what I meant that they are still the favorite to win game 2 despite that lost. So yes, as they are the favored, they will have to win it this time.

The Warriors can't go and dominate the first 40 minutes of the game, all eyes will be in the 4th quarter again in this game 2 specially if the Celtics was able to keep up with them. They will have to figure out something to stop them from getting those three's. I don't think they will have to push the panic button though, they will just have to play defense the whole 48 minutes. But we have to admit that the Celtics flipped the numbers of the road team winning game 1 in NBA finals.
4566  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING] George Kambosos vs Devin Haney - Undisputed Lightweight Title - June 5 on: June 05, 2022, 04:34:47 AM
It's over now guys, Haney won comfortably, scores were: 116-112, 116-112 and 118-110.

The key? Haney's jab, Kambosos can't get inside because Haney is throwing that jab and makes it a technical fight and unfortunately, George can't adjust and during the championships round, you can see his frustrations as he tries to rough off Devin. Easy W.

I would say it's a boring fight, as some of us is expecting. Haney's style, but that's sweet science. Not sure if a rematch is needed here, it might be the same outcome. Congrats to those who bet on Haney to win by decision, not sure what the odds are, as I go with Kambosos here and thinks that he has a chance to win in his home court.

Travelled to fight Kambosos in his own country, then without his father in the beginning, fight in a ring wherein 50,000 fans wanted his to lose.

Haney becoming the undisputed lightweight champion at 23 years old!!!
4567  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 1 Billion USTC Burned ! possible X100 Increase on: June 04, 2022, 11:53:35 PM
Burning will not save USTC, I think it will just show it's weaknesses again. How can they say that burning will be a good solution long term? They really need to back it up 1:1 to USDT and it's obvious that they don't have the capital right now and I doubt that they can recover what they've lost here.

And on the contrary, I think it just makes things complicated, maybe they are using other models like like Evergrow Coin (https://evergrowegc.com/), but for Luna it might be different because they just came from a big disaster and again, this might not restore to it's peg of $1.00. And if it ever does, there could be more questions going to be raised as this might be some entities manipulating the price. So it's a lose-lose situation for them.
4568  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can You See Or Tell If A Fight Or Event Is Fix ? on: June 04, 2022, 11:10:51 PM
Yes, like in horse racing for instance, I personally know a lot of jockeys back in the days and they said they can make the horse not win and fix the outcome if the owners says so. What they do though is the obvious, if the horse is known to go on the front at the starting gate, the jockey will simply place them behind and then they will do just leisure holding, meaning they are not going to push the horse unless they are closer in the finish line. Or they will loosely, just hold the saddle and then pace the horse, in short break the horse rhythm or at least not play with the horse strengths.
4569  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: June 04, 2022, 10:03:38 PM
It appears everyone is very busy arguing about Kambosos versus Haney and Inoue versus Donaire hehehe. We forgot that this weekend Stephen Fulton will also be fighting Danny Roman. It might not appear to be an important fight, we know Fulton's victory is a certainty, however, every boxing fan should watch it because if Inoue wins, he might move up to super bantamweight and challenge Fulton for the WBC and WBO super bantamweight championships.

Well, Sad to say many are mainly focused on the main events and don't want to give even slight details over other fights that are not on the main card, and actually the same goes with me because I really don't know Stephen Fulton and Danny Roman, and I think that many here are with me and speaking of the Kambosos and Haney, they indeed have a heated argument that may add fuel to the hype, and with Inoue VS Donaire I am really most excited to that fight more than other, I am curious if Naoya Inoue has upped his game or if Nonito Donaire can have an answer to their rematch or if it's going to be a repeat of the past,

Stephen Fulton vs Danny Roman is also a main event mate. Gone are the days when it's just HBO and Showtime running the big boxing shows and many times adjusted their schedules to avoid the same fight dates. Right now we have 3 giant networks (DAZN, PBC, ESPN) that are not scared to stage their own events on the same schedules. Many boxing fans are dismayed because it divide the viewers. 

On June 4 both 3 networks will air their own shows although Kambosos-Haney is the biggest of the 3 events.

ESPN: Kambosos vs Haney   
PBC: Stephen Fulton vs. Daniel Roman
DAZN: Kenichi Ogawa vs. Joe Cordina


Right, it's obvious that HBO Boxing is gone for good for many years and if I'm not mistaken some of it's executive are working on Showtime like Espinoza or in the other 3 giant networks that you mentioned.

I think the Fulton vs Roman could be a good banger but Stephen is the big favorite so I'm not expecting the fight to last the distance.

Ogawa is a Japanese junior light weight champion, this is his first defense of the belt and I think this is more interesting as the lower weights is filled with fighters that are fast and strong. But I expect Ogawa to win here as well.

Well there was an upset as Joe Cordina knock out the champion Ogawa in just 2 rounds. I haven't seen the fight to be honest, it's just the news that pop out from my social media accounts. Ogawa is the champion and the odd favorite, but not by a mile. He was like 1.6x something against Cordina's 2.1x. So the chance for the underdog to win is there and so he did. It was reported that the right hand landed solid on Ogawa's chin and has to struggled to get up. But he fell down again and the referee was force to wave the fight off.

Para atang walang nanalo na bettors dito sa ating lokal ahh, lahat nakapusta sa Golden State Warriors hehe.

Kung 3.xx lang sana yong odds para sa Celtics baka sumugal pa ako pero hindi ehh at ang handicap ay napakababa pa na mistulang trap para sa mga fans ng Warriors.

Grabe yong laro ni Horford sa 4th quarter, pasok kahit anong binabato pero tingin ko makakabawi yong Warriors sa game 2 dahil alam na nila kung sino ang babantayan  Grin.

Sa mga Warriors fans dito, huwag tayong susuko.

Parang wala nga talaga, di naman talaga inasahan na matatalo ang Warriors sa kanilang lugar lalo na at nasa Game 1 palang. Akala ko panalo na kasi hanggang sa 3rd quarter ang Warriors parin ang nauuna pero pagdating ng 4th quarter, biglang naging halimaw sa Horford. Malamang sa malamang si bantay sarado na si Horford ni Green sa susunod na laro pero baka si Jayson Tatum naman ang maging halimaw hehe.

Next game ulit mga kabayan, kaya to.

Sinabi mo pa, halos lahat nasa Warriors side eh, hindi talaga akalain yung silat ng Boston, pero wala tayong magagawa bilog ang bola at napaka swerte nila sa labas. Halos lahat ng pukol eh pumapasok. Si Tatum simple lang ang laro pero sa assists kumana.

Delikado ang Warriors, para sa kin do or die sa kanila ang game 2. Pag natalo pa sila ang hirap umahon sa 0-2 tapos nasa road sila sa susunod. Kung mananalo sila sa game 2, pwedeng sila naman ang magnakaw ng isang laro sa Boston.
4571  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Sentiment Poll for June on: June 04, 2022, 10:21:13 AM
Stable month, it seems. Nothing too different from May should be expected... There aren't major news or events which could possibly boost bitcoin price up. I see news keep saying bitcoin won't stay cheap like this for too long, but that is all they have to say for now, and although I think they are right, it's not convincing enough to push a bull run forward.

No bull run this year, that's for sure, we are in a bearish cycle already. And even if there is news that will boost the price, perhaps it won't last long as speculators are going to used it to shorts bitcoin to try and squeeze some money in this plot.

And it's better not to be enthusiastic or something not just this June, but this 2022. Similar in 2018 by all means. But we can make the most out of this downturn this month, simply accumulate, and don't make things complicated.
4572  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: June 04, 2022, 09:51:26 AM
I have lost my Moneyline bet to the Golden State Warriors.
Same here I lost my Warriors bet but luckily I took part in a promo that saved my bet from losing and stopped me from sweating the rest of the game. I might go with the match-winner again even though the odds are a bit lower than the first game I think the Warriors can't go down 0-2 before going to Boston. What are the odds when you took Celtics to win the series? I'm interested to see the odds difference before the series started and after the upset.

Who hans't lost their beat on Warriors? ML or handicap? hehehe. Funny though that I didn't watch the game as I was just following the score online because I believed that the Warriors are going to win this one and cover the handicap bet that I made.

I think it the odds are still the same in Game 2 for the Celtics. They are still on the road, so they will be the underdog here. The odds might shift to their favor in Game 3 though specially if they are going to win the next game.
4573  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your NBA Champion this season? on: June 04, 2022, 09:19:39 AM
Again, it's only 1 game. And so we will see how the Warriors will adjust on the next game because they played poorly in the last quarter. This is not the typical Warriors that we know, they are a team that knows how to protect their lead, but not in this game. Something is not right and hopefully they can recover their mentally in the next game because they don't want to be 0-2 in this series.
They've shown what they've got and I guess we just have to appreciate what the Celtics have shown. They've played the best basketball game that they've got and yes, this is just the game 1 but the morale that it has given to the Celtics with their current roster, it's a big shot.

Would tend to agree that it's a morale boosting win for the C's. No one has given them a chance at this point, maybe Charles Barkley  Grin. But they've shown why they are in the NBA finals. Not going to lie, I bet on the Warriors on game 1, but it is what is it, as the saying goes.

I know that Warriors will be able to bounce back and they'll tell and show to everyone who they are and I'm expecting that this is going to be a long games and maybe until game 7.

Game 2 is critical for Golden State, hey have to response and win by a blow out in the next game. They don't have Tatum to have the confidence to play like that. Because he has a big 13 assists, something that we haven't seen from him. And then scoring 40 points in the 4th quarter? that's huge.
4574  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Inoue vs Donaire II discussion on: June 04, 2022, 08:47:14 AM
He's aiming for that and it's like his pride will be stepped in if he losses to him for the 2nd time around. Well, we're going to see how he's going to beat it as it's like a promise to himself and not to everyone that he'll win this time. We're all counting on him and we want him to beat Inoue and alas, they're tie and both had experienced the belt. No doubt about his records and the past but this time, it's different from there because he's beaten for the first match and this is a rematch that he shouldn't miss because if he losses, no more rematch.
Donaire has indeed a lot of accomplishments as a fighter. But perhaps this will be the biggest stage for him to win against a very tough opponent in Inoue.

He said in his interviews that he admits his mistakes on the first fight and promise that he won't the same mistakes again. Not sure what those mistakes are, but maybe he is too reluctant to engage before he is afraid that he will be caught coming inside with an overhand right from Inoue. But now Donaire is extra motivate and will take this challenge and go for a win.
Yeah, I've just watched one of his winning blows in one of his fights and it's hyping me again. That's why if he has said this and said that, he'll surely going to do something different this time and will do what he has said. It is the reason why many are counting on him but we're not belittling what Inoue can do. He's still the champ and is one who holds the title but, the fighting spirit that Donaire is showing to the public now is interesting and encouraging to believe on him.

Everyone is hype on this fight, specially on how Donaire seems to be getting his second win by beating 2 young champions and gives hope that maybe he can win against Inoue. And many are going to believed that he can accomplished this because he has the tools at his disposal.

he has the experienced and says that he learned from his previous lost. And that what makes Donaire very dangerous in the rematch. He is going to be extra motivated to the extend that he is willing to travel in Inoue's hometown to avenge his lost.

Quote
“The art of war, baby. Deception,” Kambosos insisted after moving forward with the first defense of his lightweight championship. “Let them believe this was done. Everything is a process. Art of war, deception. I did it on purpose.”

Do you agree though that he did it on purpose?

Of course not. What kind of fool would do that on purpose? It was really a failure. But it was good that they were able to make the required weight the second time around. Art of war? Deception? No, baby, it wasn't art of war. Art of war is not telling your enemies your plan, not proclaiming it. It's not deception either. It is not deception if you're saying it is deception. And why would you be exerting effort on this? The war hasn't even begun yet.

George turns a that negativity and then used it as a weapon. But I doubt that it's very effective though, if you look at it, just a fraction of 1 lbs. You can sweet it out, by doing some light mitts in the gym go back in the weighing scale and make the weight. Maybe he is saying that truth though that he had coffee, and maybe that's the reason why he retain the weight.

So it's not done on purpose, he was just caught and most probably him and his team are very surprised as well that's why he has to strip and weight many times before they announced what his official weight-in. Of course he was given special treatment by the lady but she has to be firmed that George was indeed over the weight in the first try.

Definitely taking golden state game one.  Boston is a little young so maybe they come out tight.  Expect klay and Curry along with dreymond to cruise to the first win tonight.  Can't wait shoukd be good.  Enjoy the game everyone.

True, I don't think that Curry and Klay will let this series slip out from them. Specially if they have a good lead like 3-1, definitely they will go with that score, win the first 2 games at home and then steal 1 at Boston Garden.

Boston is a good team no doubt, but they lack the x-factor which is the experience. Warriors been there done that so they have the DNA to win another ring.
4578  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: June 02, 2022, 10:49:53 PM
I'm also riding on the Warriors bandwagon, at least this game. I still want to see Jayson Tatum's performance against the defense of Wiggins. This is again a good match up for Wiggs specially on how he work out defensively and offensively Luka Doncic.

So like the majority of you, I will be betting on the handicap at -3.5. If the Warriors pull a big lead on the first half, it will be hard for the Celtics to do a catchup. But if it's close, then Steph will bring need to bring his shooting again.
4579  Local / Pamilihan / Re: NBA discussion, betting and etc. on: June 02, 2022, 10:23:56 PM
Relax muna ako at sa handicap muna mag bet hehhe.

so -3.5 ako sa Warriors first game, tingnan natin ang Boston kung paano sila maglalaro sa Finals at kung healthy pa.

Masarap din tumaya sa player props pero baka sa susunod na game ko na sya laruin.

Goodluck lalo na sa mga didiin sa serye na to.  Grin

For now it can be said that $ 25k is the lowest price since ATH 6 months ago, as an investor who wants to get a big profit, the low price is the time to buy, do not panic by selling all the bitcoin we have and will make us regret because the market is immediately Rising Again, it's better to continue to buy and sell because profit and not loss or panic.

Yes, that seems to be the case... for now. But remember we are still in the middle of the year and so the next 6 months might surprised us for the worst or better.

So we just need to be attentive of the price actions. If you have plans to buy, then wait for the actual dip and then purchase and hold. If it bottom at $25k and then you bought some then good. But there's always a lot of opportunity in this crypto sphere.
