Bookies create that odd and for sure there are many Pinoy fans who take that opportunity to support Jerusalem with that sweet odd for sure fans who really love watching and supporting this sport will be glad to spare some money for the home pride, sad to say but bookies is right when they place this odd and those who risk their bet for Jerusalem losses their stake.

Great match. The champ did try to defend his belt, but the challenger is really powerful when he already gains his rhythm and starts throwing those solid combinations.

It was really the bookies that are setting up the odds but surely many Filipinos want to support their fellow countrymen and have seen this as a good profit aswell If Jerusalem wins sadly to say it was not Jerusalem's time 1st title defense and it was all a lost and I surely don't go with betting with Melvin Jerusalem because I can feel that it is risky his Opponent was an Oscar De La Hoya's boxer and getting this fight and with that kind of position they really know who's going to win in this fight

I can say, Oscar Collazo is one bad Mother, Father those punches of his were really powerful for Melvin Jerusalem to stop the fight and retired, that is how powerful that body blow felt,



Another fight for a Filipino boxer and that is Jeo Santisima this coming end of the month and I think it is going to be the Main Event for the OPBF Featherweight Title this is the Event

Lando Norris is another F1 driver who is also into racing simulators so to keep his reaction time up and can get in practice on the tracks.
They also said during the qualifying session that Ocon is the other driver who is heavily into simulations and those three play online all the time against teams on twitch.
If Max wins today you will have to say the season is in Red Bull's hands at this point as nobody else can catch them now.
Even with Mercedes new side pod designs nor Ferrari's dynamic duo. Leclerc's curse of not being able to win here is still going strong.

Oh, I remember Lando Norris he got a video posted 3 days ago and he is trying to play F1 23 here is the clip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZNjqfsb4Qk I think he was trying out the Las Vegas Grand Prix, and watching this video clip Lando Norris was really hilarious in playing the F1 23 I really think his reaction to his model and car was really hilarious,

Well, Max Verstappen already won and while Fernando Alonzo still got the 2nd position, Sergio Perez from the 20th position just got up to the number 16 position for the Monaco GP, While Lando Norris just got in the 9th position,

We are 2 hours away from start of the race and I'm getting excited for this one because I have a feeling the safety car will be on track more than 2 times. Also , bookies are giving quite the odds for safety car during the race and that makes me think that we will have SC a lot today. If somehow , Max and Alonso will hit each other in turn 1 , then we might have a race that we won't forget anytime soon and to be honest , F1 needs a spark right now because last 3 races were kinda boring.

For me, it was really a frustrating race for Charles Leclerc for just getting the 6th position and at least going to the podium in his home country, but still struggling with the Circuit De Monaco track, I think that Max Verstappen just got good practice with his Simulation Racing, and Monaco was just practice from home, so even though this is his 1st time driving in the Monaco GP, he got a ton of experience already because if you seem the Monaco Circuit in this game it looks realistic, it was a spitting image of the real deal,

It is very interesting why Melvin Jerusalem is tagged as the underdog when

1.  He is the champion
2.  He has more fight
3.  He has more KO victory
4.  They have almost the same KO percentage
5.  Jerusalem losses were not a knock-out but a decision.
6.  Both is on their prime

I don't understand on what ground they label Jerusalem as the underdog.  This would be a treat from the book maker since I believe there is a higher chance for Jerusalem to win this fight than Collazo since The champion has way more experience than Collazo.


They might have seen something about Oscar Collazo being this kind of a favorite and in addition to this Oscar Collazo is Oscar De La Hoya's boxer so there is no wonder there is a big hype surrounding this boxer, and surely the odds were true because Oscar Collazo won against Melvin Jerusalem via KO/TKO retirement from Jerusalem's corner, it was a very sad day for the Filipino community,


Yes, most likely because of his KO rate that's why he is the favorite in this fight. Nevertheless, Melvin is the more experience fighter here and he just won the belt. But we will see, sports bookies always underestimate Filipino boxers, but nevertheless when they show good boxing skills they might change their tune. So let Melvin proved his dominance in this fight and hopefully he will win by a knockout to silent his critics and then sports bookies don't doubt himself in his next fight. But on the other hand, backers and supporters of Melvin will be very happy to see him as the underdog because of a great returns if you bet on him even at Money Line.

There is a huge something about this but watching the fight in the first 3 rounds Melvin Jerusalem is dominating the fight and he is more active inside the ring making his way to give Collazo more punches but in the 4th round it suddenly changes and now Oscar Collazo was the one dominating the fights and was very active toward Jerusalem, and then until the 6th round, Oscar Collazo have so much body shots landed on Melvin Jerusalem that he can not take anymore, and on the 7th round were Jerusalem was already knocking down and can not make it that is the time he has retired and give-up the belt on Oscar Collazo,

It was an upset for the champion but the bookies were really right about Oscar Collazo being faster and were technical looking and managed to see Jerusalem style in the 1st 3 rounds that are the time when he sees the opening and make a great comeback over Jerusalem, truly Oscar De La Hoya has good eyes in keeping a boxer with true potential,

Nice parlay @jakelyson and congratulations to you to @YuginKadoya.

I forgot to bet yesterday for the games today. Cry
The defending champion Las Vegas Aces did not lose yet. The Sparks did good at keeping the game close but Jacki Young of the Aces was unstoppable creating 30 points and helping the team to win. A'ja Wilson another double-double. 19 points and 13 rebounds. Like Alyssa Thomas, looks like Wilson will also average a double-double per game.

Phoenix Mercury on the other hand is also showing some great chemistry with their newly added player Britney Griner, well after the bad event.
Griner scored 19 points and Diana Taurasi with 23 points and 10 assists. The team is looking great and they might end up in a good spot for the playoffs.

2 games tomorrow.
Chicago Sky versus Washington Mystics‍ - Chicago Sky ML @2.33
Seattle Storm versus Dallas Wings‍ - Seattle Storm ML @2.95

Good luck guys.


Yup! thanks it is weird I think it's been two match days that I haven't seen bookies on Stake and Sportsbook for the WNBA have you guys seen anything, that is why I can not make any bets for the WNBA, or this is just a problem at my end, I really don't know what happens, but I will search for some site that I could bet for the WNBA because next game will surely be exciting,

Here are my picks will update this when I see any bookies post their odds on this game

Atlanta Dream vs Indiana Fever

The Atlanta Dream will face the Indiana Fever at their home court Gateway Center Arena, for their game tomorrow, Dream's key injuries are Danielle Robinson (knee) which is questionable, and Iliana Rupert (suspension) and are out for this game, while the Fever key injury is Bernadett Hatar (suspension) and is out for this game, right now the Indiana Fever doesn't have any win yet and they lost to the Sun and Liberty, while the Dream wins their game against the Lynx, for me I will go with the Atlanta Dream if there are sports bookies happen to post this game for Stake

Chicago Sky vs Dallas Wings

The Chicago Sky will face the Dallas Wings at their home court Wintrust Arena, for their game tomorrow, the sky's key injuries are Morgan Bertsch (ankle) Sika Kone (illness) Rebekah Gardner (foot) are all questionable if they can play, and Li Yueru (lower body) Isabelle Harrison (knee) Ruthy Hebard (Personal) and are all out for this game, while Wings key injuries are Teaira McCowan (knee) and are questionable if she can play for the Wings, Diamond DeShields (knee) is out and can not play, and Lou Lopez Senechal (knee) and might be available on mid-July for this game because of so many injuries for the Sky I think I am going with the Dallas Wings,

Las Vegas Aces vs Minnesota Lynx

The Las Vegas Aces will be playing the Minnesota Lynx at their home court Mandalay Bay Events Center, Ace's key injury is Riquna Williams (back) and is questionable while key injuries for the Lynx are Kayla McBride (personal) is questionable if she can play, and Natalie Achonwa (personal) and is out and not going to play for this game I will definitely go with the Aces the defending champion,

Funny how Puppey said that if his team makes it to TI this year "Everyone is f...ed"  Grin Grin and to be true , they have 4th , 3rd , 2nd place in the last 3 TI's ...so there is actually a chance for them to win it Grin. Meanwhile , they have a very long road to go and it looks like last TI qualifiers chance might be their last hope or they go nuts now and win every game they have left in DPC.
After their loss against Entity, there's no way they can qualify through DPC points, and they should worry about avoiding relegation first because they only have two series left.

They are looking to be relegated again. That is twice in a row now if that happens. I do not think they can win against Tundra and Quest.

Anyway, it is not impossible for them to still qualify for TI. They have done it last year and even made it to the finals. But just like Puppey said, the gambling gods are f..ed if ever they make it to TI this year. If I remember right, they found their key player last year in Riyadh Masters. Maybe they will find their key player again in Riyadh this year. A lot can still happen between now and the next TI qualifier. Who knows, maybe Puppey can be lucky again and pull another Last Chance Qualifier run.


Meanwhile , BetBoom seems to find a way to actually play good dota and stop trowing during mid game but I'm curious if they will perform good in next Major because the hype around this team is very big in Eastern Europe.

They should be playing well and should dominate Eastern Europe. They have a stacked lineup. I do not think they are throwing, but since this team is new to each other, adjustments must be made. They will dominate the DOTA scene soon. And I think we are seeing the start of it.
466  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: May 27, 2023, 09:05:21 PM

Seems like we have a divided crowd here because the series has becoming more and more intense each game that passes by. The way I see it, I reckon that both Celtics and Heat now have the same chances when it comes to winning and bagging the whole series and there's no room that I see for any team to underestimate the opposite because both teams have suppressed each other already. The upcoming game will be important for both teams and probably will not make plenty of mistakes to give an advantage towards the opposite. Anyway, I'll be betting live as I have no clue right now who have the higher hand and will just make a much safer bet during live.


The odds against the Celtics are still against them since statistically, no teams in NBA have come back from a 0-3 deficit. But if there is a team right now that can do that, it is the Celtics. They have been a better team the whole season. They just need another win on the road and the odds will turn into them. If they win game 6, I think they will win the conference finals and will face the Nuggets on the NBA Finals. It is history in the making but we have to see how they will perform tonight.



I will be taking the Boston Celtics tonight. They are still the favorite team to win even though stats are against them. I believe they are a better team, so I am taking a risk on them. it is a risk betting on them since it is Heat's home and Jimmy could go hot this time after losing two consecutive games. But Tatum and Brown play better when there is pressure on them, so it is 50/50 for me. The win could go either way. Good lucks guys.

What a great performance for Max Verstappen surely enjoy the race so much and actually many did, but surely the qualifier is still for Max Verstappen because Verstappen has snatched the pool positioning over Fernando Alonso here is the image of Alozo and Verstappen having their conversation on what has happened in the following qualifying race, it was really a close battle for positioning



And Charles Leclerc's refusal in giving up says anything is possible and he is determined to win in his hometown for sure, he is looking for what can he do for the following race right now if he can surely take home the win that will be great for his place because he will be taking the win for them,

And Red Bull Team Principal Christian Horner will be giving Sergio Perez some points on his crash because he will be sitting and watching as Max Verstappen will be side by side with Fernando Alonzo surely he doesn't like that at all as Sergio Perez will be starting at the last of the position, when the race started,

468  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: May 27, 2023, 03:46:45 PM

No one expect that Nghitumbwa is one tough opponent.  Casimero did his best and even KD his opponent, it is that his opponent can receive his punches well.  Not because the opponent is unknown it will be easier for the known one to beat him.  Remember Manny Pacquiao is also unknown when he fight and beat Ledwaba.  I think Casimero is lucky because he intimidated his opponent early in the match giving him the chance to dictate the match.

When it comes to fighting against Inoue, I think Casimero is ready to fight Inoue way back 2 years ago.

Casimero didn't really expect it aswell, Fillipus Nghitumbwa surely is durable and has a chin for surely if Naoya Inoue would fight him body short might have some effect on him, but I really doubted it, but yeah many are really expecting a John Riel Casimero VS Naoya Inoue fight and many are really anticipating this fight, but I think Casimero will need to take out 1 of the targeted belt of Naoya so he would likely become the target so Naoya can not evade fighting him,

This is for Filipino boxing fans in this forum.

Tomorrow, PH time, Melvin Jerusalem will make his first WBO minimumweight title against Puerto Rican Oscar Collazo.

What makes this fight interesting is that Jerusalem is placed as the underdog against Collazo, who by the way has only six fights as a pro boxer. On the interview, Jerusalem said that he is motivated by the underdog tag and I'll bite that  Grin, so I'm placing a bet for him ML @3.51. Hope he will retain the crown and continue the streak of upsets done by Filipino boxers.

Likely I will surely search for a site where I can watch this fight but maybe it will be on mainstream media for a good view of the fight, but anyway I think Oscar Collazo can not be taken lightly by Jerusalem even though Melvin Jerusalem is the champion this could surely be out of hand of Jerusalem if hye underestimated Collazo, but I think if Jerusalem can for us the fight which is a good quality for Filipino boxers he can definitely win this fight,


Thanks, I search for the fight and yeah, it's interesting that Jerusalem is the underdog as a champion. And then both make weight. And Melvin said that he is fighting because he wanted to give his family a good life, sound interesting? Like Manny Pacquiao.

Hopefully as you have said, he will win this one so that he will remain as one of two? if I'm not mistaken as Filipino champion.

The other own is Marlon Tapales if I'm not mistaken.

The sad truth for Melvin Jerusalem to become the underdog in this fight even though he is the champion and he likely has 20 fights, the bookies are likely underestimating Jerusalem so much, and they already made a thing that Oscar Collazo has already won and congratulated him already, this surely boils Melvin Jerusalems anger to the point he will likely show his everything towards the fight,

469  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: May 27, 2023, 02:30:42 PM

They may have exposed it in Game 4 but we are not sure if they can be consistent enough to preserve that kind of defense. I am not sure the Boston Celtics can win in the same manner as that because Miami Heat will also adjust and I doubt Coach Spoelstra will just let it happen again. From watching the tape they will already see the mistakes they have done and I am sure he will prepare something to avoid the same result.

Game 3 it was Gabe Vincent who dominated the offense. Butler was just 16/8/6 which means he can also be a facilitator while his teammates are stepping up their game. The difference though is Duncan Robinson who played 20+ minutes in Games 2 and 3 and scored double digits but in their last game, he only scored two. Player rotation will be a key factor for Coach Spo to achieve a win again and end this series in Boston.

For game 6 I think the Miami Heat will likely have an answer to the adjustment that the Celtics made, but if they can not make any adjustment they will likely move on to game 7 and which will be a very crucial thing and that will be the Boston Celtics have made history in taking the 3 - 0 comeback,

Now In Gabe Vincent's return I really don't see him at his 100% yet for that game he will have a very difficult return for sure but maybe at game 7 Gabe Vincent will have a slight recovery in that game helping Jimmy Butler take the win and advance to the finals,


There's no team in the NBA that win 0-3 deficit. I don't know where's the thing that exposed their defense but if they do I think they will adjust that onto the next game, there should always be a lesson to be taken. Might be just a rough night for Heat but I'd say that game 4 from the Celtics is a great game they have in this ECF and if they'll be consistent then they might have a chance.

Oh! isn't there one? well, I may be thinking of something else, if you look at the game 1 to 3 those 3 winnings for the Miami Heat their defense structure and pattern you can see the 2 to 3-man defense where they will always go for a double on whoever is holding the ball, but the Celtics have adjusted to this defense by not driving the ball to the paint and will always shoot a 3 point shot or a mid-range shot, as the saying goes the ball is always faster,


What the Heat need to do is limit Tatum because if he struggles in the game, it affects the entire Celtics team. We acknowledge that Tatum is a great player, but the Heat's defense is capable of slowing him down. With two straight losses, the Heat must make significant adjustments in order to secure a win, and we should witness that in Game 6.

Allowing the Celtics to win the next game would certainly turn the tide against the Heat.

If game 6 Miami Heat have failed to make win then the pressure will be too much for them, the defense of the Miami Heat really needs to change because it is not really working anymore now there are certain Issues with the Heat and there are certain issues with the Celtics aswell if they can manage to pull those up then that will be the team that will likely win,

Well even if she doesn't become a champion in the F1 Academy after this season's race when she returns to the Philippines for sure she will become an instant celebrity and on her winning round 2 Race 2 on Valencia the President of the Philippines congratulated her well she is going to be well-known for sure and I think there isn't enough fans for the F1 race in the Philippines and the is kind of thing would surely skyrocket the popularity of F1`in the Country for sure,

You are right the Philippine community is really proud if there is a fellow Filipinos that are making a good contribution that could surely get the Philippine flag in any kind of sports or make a contribution worldwide Bianca Bustamante is considered our very own and the 1st female racer in the F1 industry so this is Bianca Bustamante making history,

It may happen this week.
I  Monaco we have a very competitive Ferrari due the high traction on low speed turns.
If one between Sainz and Crarls will do the pole then he may have the only opportunity of the season to beat RBR.

A very slim cha che of rain too on Sunday

Carlos Sainz made an incredible performance in the 1st Practice run for the Monaco Grand Prix, and I love it if there are other teams surpassing or making progress with engaging with the Red Bull team actually the Circuit De Monaco is a hard Circuit for the F1 racers those slim tracks have shown racers a hardtime bumping on the barrier,



And on the news, Verstappen is seriously focused on the Monaco GP despite Topling Practice 2 and now Practice 3 he is concerned and wary about Ferrari and Aston Martin's threat to making progress in the Monaco, here is the news https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article.we-need-more-to-stay-ahead-verstappen-wary-of-ferrari-and-aston-martin.6KqNL6r9w4aw5UFpFyG8sW.html

And I have seen a video of the Mercedes upgrades explanation and as we can see the analysis is very clear the Car set up surely has a lot of different features now we can see the changes with the Mercedes used card on Miami and now the used cards for the Mercedes in the Monaco,

This could be a one-sided fight in my opinion if you look at the two Kamaru Usman is not really engaging in the ground so much if these two would fight on the ground Khamzat Chimaev will have more power because he is younger than Usman, If you have seen the 3 big fights of Khamzat Chimaev and what he has done to those three you can surely see the difference in terms of technique and power, I am talking about Chimaev's fight with, Li Jingliang, Gilbert Burns, and Kevin Holland,

Thanks for the insight about this it could surely be a good help when these two fights but right now I think that the UFC has a break now they don't have an event this week but at least this future fights are surely great to make discussion now that this week is a break for the UFC for sure the odds will surely go towards Khamzat Chimaev for this event,


There is a lot of engagement happening with Boxing and there are some big promoters in that combat sport because it is well known than MMA, so if this fight continues MMA will now have exposure to other people that didn't know about MMA, I think many will get interested about it, regarding the number of Tyson Fury fans this is a great opportunity in my opinion, for me, it is a great engagement and Dana White is investing in it that will surely have a potential to profit,

Right now I am surely looking forward to that exhibition match between Jon Jones VS Tyson Fury but there is a video circulating of Tyson Fury having a Conversation with Israel Adesanya and Tyson Fury is saying he ain't going in no cage here is the link https://youtube.com/shorts/5e3lfxWwLfU?feature=share

Yeah, back in 1976 there was a woman who raced in F1 as the article I attached to my reply has stated.

Watched round 2 yesterday of the F1 Academy and sort of enjoyed it but noticed the differences.
Such as their cars are smaller atleast they look like it while on the track. So they are like kart racers.
Also in the academy, once their car is damaged beyond repair they are out of the rest of the competition, since these races are done in succession all in the same day. Their budget would be alot less so repairing the cars to continue competing would be null.
Noticed Garica was the leader once round 2 ended on the standings.
They also made the introduction of the show just like the genuine F1 with the same music and everything.
Nice touch.

I think I have seen your post back then, about a female F1 racer, but I really don't remember the name of the female racer, but as the F1 Academy Progresses I think we could see another female F1 racer in no time

Well in this F1 Academy, I have noticed that they are using an F1 that is small in size compared to Kart Racers I really think the budget that has for the F1 Academy is just limited because this might be just a 1-time event test female racers until they can drive a real F1 machine,


It is my 1st time seeing it aswell, and I think it is glorious seeing that there is 1 Filipina driver on the Prema Racing Team and she is Bianca Bustamante and right now she had a good position in the standings where she is in the 7th position, while her teammates Chloe Chong 14th in the standing while Marta García is in the lead of the standings, while Team Prema Racing is on the 2nd position, it is my first time seeing it aswell but it is good that there are this all girls racing that we can watch aswell,


Yes, I have seen it too, for sure if Bianca Bustamante won this F1 Academy race she will be an instant celebrity knowing the culture of Filipinos when it comes to well-known personnel and this time a female racer it could be a big hit in the country for sure well seeing the F1 race don't have a Filipino or a Filipina racer could be a big hit and F1 racing will be also well-known to the country,

It seems like the NBA is really trying hard to support the WNBA and help them build a league.  I'm seeing more WNBA advertisements on TV and their players doing media interviews than I've ever seen.  While I do wish the WNBA success, I think they're going to need more support from women to truly be able to be profitable.  However, maybe as the league does more and more business via things like gambling, it will enable them to turn a profit outside of the typical revenue sources.

Yup! That sounds very logical approach the WNBA may take if they can not get much more revenue on the direct WNBA PPV and ticket sales gambling is also a better option for the WNBA,



My picks for today's game

Los Angeles Sparks vs Las Vegas Aces

The Los Angeles Sparks are playing at the Crypto.com Arena against the Las Vegas Aces, Sparks key injuries are Azura Stevens (back) is out, Jasmine Thomas (knee), and Katie Lou Samuelson (Personal) are all out and can not play for the Sparks Nia Clouden (undisclosed) and questionable while Ace's key injury is Riquna Williams (back) out and can not play for the Aces, for this game a better chance for the Aces to show what they are capable of, so my pick is the Las Vegas Aces,

Phoenix Mercury vs Minnesota Lynx

The Phoenix Mercury are playing at the Footprint Center against the Minnesota Lynx, Mercury key injuries are Megan Gustafson (foot), Shey Peddy (knee) and Skylar Diggins-Smith (personal) are all out and can not play for the Mercury, while Lynx key injury is Natalie Achonwa (personal) and is out and can not play for the Lynx, for this game the Lynx doesn't have a good win the same goes with the Mercury but the Mercury had many key players especially the returned to the team Brittney Griner that has an outstanding performance right now so my pick is the Phoenix Mercury,

474  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: May 25, 2023, 03:36:19 PM
I favored for the Celtics today on the ML and handicap and bet on that 1-3, 6-10, and 11-14 lead for them as I see they will make it and that was at loss having that 17 blowout, wow I never thought that Celtics would made a run in the final quarter. Jayson Tatum is being aggressive and we didn't see this on the recent matches or it's not him that putting the efforts. I don't know if they can pull it again to a game 6 but that's unlikely, the Heat will came up with a win the next game.

I am also going with the Boston Celtics right now there might be a good chance for them to get that win they may be playing at home but they don't have a good record when playing at home, but they expose the Miami Heat last game so they might get a chance in getting this win so I think it is a good decision for them to retaliate now,


I'm also taking the handicap for Miami Heat -7.5 @ 2.03 and for the moneyline @ 3.44 as well because why not, as you said, they will not just watch the Celtics control the game and there's a good chance too that they will force a win so that they can finish the series because the Nuggets already have a plenty time of rest. Making the series much longer will put them in a disadvantageous side.

1 more win and they could surely advance to the finals if I could see this I might at least give the Celtics some credit in exposing the Miami Heats defense, but the Miami Heat could also have an answer about this or the Celtics could break through I think this game will likely make it on game 6 for sure, so I will be taking the Celtics side,



My pick for tomorrow's game

Boston Celtics vs Miami Heat

It is game 5 for the Eastern Conference Finals and the Boston Celtics will be playing at TD Garden against the Miami Heat, with Heat on the lead Boston Celtics injury report Danilo Gallinari (knee) is out for this game and Malcolm Brogdon (forearm) and is questionable if he can play for the Celtics, while Miami Heat injury report Gabe Vincent (ankle), and Tyler Herro (hand), and both are out for this game against the Celtics, that performance for the Celtics was good they know they can not contest the Heat inside the paint so they are making shots outside and there is quite a lot of shots outside right now they surely made adjustments for game 5 so my pick is the Boston Celtics,

UFC crazy news right now we are expecting a banger of a fight because Khamzat Chimaev is now having a fight with the ex-champion Kamaru Usman, and after that, he doesn't care anymore about who's next on his list whether it is Leon Edwards or Israel Adesanya, man for me this is a hot take and I will definitely see this as a great fight aswell because for Khamzat Chimaev, Edwards and Adesanya are the same to him he can surely go towards them and Smeesh them with ease, Here are the NEWS

Actually, 1st time to see these fighters Kamaru Usman and Khamzat Chimaev that are having exchange words on their social media but it is likely looking at their previous fights I can say that Khamzat Chimaev is going to be the odds favorite for sure he is younger, No very younger than Kamaru Usman, at 29 years old only while Usman is already 36, for sure we can say that Chimaev has a lot of advantage in this fight, even though both have a ground game I think Khamzat Chimaev in what I have seen in his fight videos has a more advance ground game than Usman,

And talking about Dana White is biased against Jon Jones, he is considering Jone Jones to fight Tyson Fury and will Allow it while he doesn't allow Francis Ngannou back then to have his boxing match, talk about Dana "The Bias" White, maybe this is showing Ngannou that he can give something if he likes the guy, but whatever White is just doing it because of the PFL contract Signing news that could disrupt a ripple between UFC and PFL, and Dana White is giving his kind of ripple to the add, here is the NEWS

I think Dana White is thinking of money more than his fighters he surely knows the big PPV when Jon Jones fights with Tyson Fury, and for sure Dana White is good at seeing a potential money-making fight and this is imminent with the number of people giving a thing for these two fighters, so yeah this is going to be a great fight for sure, and about Ngannou there could be a thing about it giving Jones a boxing match it is to show Francis Ngannou an opportunity for him leaving UFC, but for sure Dana White will still not give it to Ngannou even if he doesn't leave UFC,

Something happened that they won from 1-3, the Cavs then. It will be difficult for people to come back because they still need to win three straight times to become champions. It`s definitely not easy because it's the NBA finals, and it's the best team they've ever fought against because they won their conference finals but CAVS came back and win the championship.

Now, it's the Heat and Celtics, they need to win a 4 straight to win the championship. It's a bit impossible but we can't predict the time they might still win, and it will become history if it happens.

Many have surely thought that the Miami Heat can also sweep the Boston Celtics but somehow the Celtics have managed their way to win in game 4, and I think the Boston Celtics have made a good adjustment in game 4 instead of driving the ball inside they are shooting from outside because they now respect the defense of the Miami Heat and that is when they destroy the 3 to 2 defense zone of the Heat, this is really exciting the Boston Celtics now have an answer to the Heat's defense,


Nope, the Celtics only need to win three straight games because they have already won one game. It's not impossible, though based on the record, no team has ever come back from a 0-3 deficit. It would be the Celtics who would be the first to do so, but I doubt this series will reach Game 7.

I think there are other teams that win in a 0-3 deficit well right now the Miami Heat's defense was exposed by the Celtics, and the Boston Celtics have made tremendous adjustments to their attack and they are not letting some of the Heat's 3 points to come in aswell, it is now really crucial that they have done this and right now what do the Miami Heat answer will be in the next game, now that their defense was exposed by the Celtics,

Yes, that is exactly why we shouldn't be discussing about or posting any links about a race until we get closer to the start day such as 5-6 days before so we know it will actually begin for it's scheduled timeframe according to the FIA.
If Monaco GP doesn't end up happening then this means there will only be 21 races to be done within the season unless they can come up with a solution.


Copy that, but surely many even me didn't expect that storm that hit Imola, and many here are sure excited for another race to start, and it was really unexpected but yeah will surely look for the event 1st before engaging any further about it, anyway Monaco GP is this weekend so we better get ready about it, and will look for further information about it later,

@slaman29
There has been women who had raced against the men professionally before.
One that comes to mind is Danica Patrick. But that was in American open-wheel car racing, nascar & indy car racing.
She's the only women announcer on the panel for nbc sports who has raced professionally and can bring her point of view for the F1 every race week.

@YuginKadoya @owengtam09
Thanks for posting about the F1 Academy as it did look like an interesting affair in Barcelona.

I never thought that there is an F1 Academy going on, and it consist of all women drivers, it is just brilliant because we don't have any women drivers at all, well in the past I think there are women that test drive an f1 car and then she became a professional for F1, looking at the F1 Academy right now next event for F1 Academy Round 4 they are off to Netherlands Zandvoort Circuit, on June 23-25 while the F1 Monaco will be on this weekend now, May 26-28, it will be that exciting,

Bookies sometimes are bonkers and last time Connecticut Sun won but right now even though the Washington Mystics will play at home for me even though the odds are not with the Sun, it is favorable for me because when I bet for the Connecticut Sun that means it is profitable for me,


Well, you are right about that if the odds are for the Washington Mystics then you are profitable if the Connecticut Sun wins, but anyway I am going to follow on with your picks I think that the Sun may get this opportunity in winning again even though they are away,

Anyway here are my picks for today's game

Washington Mystic vs Connecticut Sun

This game is on Capital One Arena home of Washington Mystic, where they would have a game against the Connecticut Sun, and Mystic's key injury was Myisha Hines-Allen with a knee injury and is out and can not play for the Mystic, while Key's injury for the Sun is Lauren Cox that is questionable because of personal problems, on this game even though the Sun is not at home now but last game these two teams fought and Connecticut Suns win that game, so I am taking the Connecticut Sun,

Minnesota Lynx vs Atlanta Dream

This game is on Target Center home of the Minnesota Lynx, where they would have a game against Atlanta Dream, and Lynx's key injury is Lindsay Allen, that has a hamstring and can not play, and Natalie Achonwa that has personal issues and can not play for the Lynx while Dreams'Danielle Robinson has a knee injury and is out and will not play, Monique Billings has an ankle injury and is questionable if he's going to find, and Iliana Rupert is out because of suspension, I really think that the Lynx could win this so my pick is the Minnesota Lynx,

Slightly crazy that the Lakers are down 3-0 to the Nuggets but for whatever reason the lakers are the favorite to win tonight. I know as a gambler you can’t pass on those sorts of odds but I don’t think this Lakers team is going to let their season end by being swept at home. We’ll see. Plus, they’re saying Mo Bamba will play tonight and make a difference. I have my doubts but I would feel safe betting LeBron to win to protect his legacy tonight.

And a crazy win for the Denver Nuggets have now won the game against the Lakers via Sweep, but it was a close game very close game for the Lakers but the Denver Nuggets are just persistent in getting this win Nikola Jokic is a true monster in getting another triple-double for this game and supports from Aaron Gordon and Jamal Murray really is a bug help for Jokic,

I'm all in on Denver for a 4 game sweep.  I just said in another thread I will be betting Celtics in game 4 because It's hard to sweep.  But in this one they just can't stop jokic and none of the backcourt can hang with Murray.  I'm taking the odds and taking the money line on Denver.

Good luck everyone.

I was really wrong with my picks this time I thought that the Lakers can somehow manage just 1 win for the Lakers but it was a sweep, D'Angelo Russell was the real Brick this time and just stood there and he doesn't really contribute a lot,

Phoenix Mercury vs Chicago Sky

Caught this game while browsing stake.com. The Chicago Sky is playing well and with 1.65 odds on them, I think it is a good bet. Kahleah Copper is everywhere and is now 11 points. Hopefully, they can continue in the next half and win this game.



Great timing/catch for your pick as the Chicago Sky maintains that lead and wins the game,


I thought my bet will be in trouble when Chicago started to get in foul trouble and Phoenix are starting to hit their shots, but luckily, they were able to maintain their lead. Even the tough defense of Griner failed to deny the team effort of Evans, Copper, and Williams.

Brittney Griner showed a great game with 27 points and 10 rebounds. After her experience in Russia, I am glad that she was still able to find his footing and do great in WNBA. I hope she continues to do so. They lose the game but it was a good game for her.


We don't have any games tomorrow next game will be the other day May 24, it will be Washington Mystic VS Connecticut Sun this is going to be a lit game for sure but for me, Connecticut Sun has some edge with this game, next is the Minnesota Lynx VS Atlanta Dream, this is the real close match and for this game, I think I will check the injuries 1st before getting a conclusion on who's going to win,


The bookies disagree with you. They favor the Mystics to win this match. It was a close game when they last played so maybe the bookies are taking into account that the Mystics have the home-court advantage. That plays a lot in the morale of the team. Since they have a close game against the Suns, maybe this time they can turn it around and win it in their home. I will be betting on Washington but I will place it later. Maybe there will be better odds later.
