Someone like me will always make use of my personal betting strategy and each time i feels am tired and fed up of same pattern, i try to sit and innovate on another strategy, then give a try to see if it really works as i have expected or not, this is how we should go about with the strategy in gambling, we don't have to depend on a single entry for that, trying out multiple entries can help us have the best desiring gambling strategy to use in other to have an improved gambling result.
Often personal strategies that have worked for a long time are no longer relevant. A simple example: there will be a fight between Usyk and Fury, Usyk is an excellent athlete but he does not have much experience in a new weight category for him and the fight this time will be as unpredictable as it was before. studying two athletes will take quite a lot of time, besides, my friends who are associated with boxing are also in doubt who will win.

Yup, there are factors that may affect the outcome and that's the key for you to adjust, every strategy needs to follow path or information that will guide you on how you may analyze the possible outcome of the game, strategy that you can use to setup your expectations, some key ideas that will give you good edge when you alreay select the game and the types of bets that you will stake your money, more on knowing the game and the players that will compete, from that side you'll be able to weight your assessment and prediction.

The problem of most people in trading is that people go to make excessive profits very quickly, and when they train, people face losses. Most of all, if you want to test, you have to remember to gradually increase the amount of investment. Those who make all the investments in the beginning, there are many problems in recovery. Therefore, in training, the amount should be sent from the original amount to the investment.

You need to make sure that you completely understand the risk before placing huge amount of invesment, just like what you mentioned if you put huge amount of money and the market turns against you, it will be tough to recover your losses, and most of the time when fear dominates inside you, the timing is bad, when you decide to pull out your investment the losses is really huge, you must understand that in order to make something decent, you need to know not just the basic but you should keep on improving yourself and when the time that you think you are really ready,

then you can start placing decent amount of investment just make sure that you are not holding that which you are not willing to let go, you need to have that big nerve to risk and if your analysis makes it right, expect to harvest the profits, but keep in mind that you should stop learning, keep that mindset alive so you will keep on aiming to learn to avoid failing from this business.

In terms of defense mahirap talunin ang Wolves kasi ang lalaki ng line up nila. Since malaki rin, medyo hindi mabilis mag rotate, kaya dapat talaga galingan ng Nuggets every game at sa labas sila tumitira.  Ganda ng shooting nila dito sa labas kaya nanalo sila, pero kung mag struggle sila sa game 4, yun mahirap na, baka maka 3-1 na ang wovles tapos possible pang mag end sa 4-1. Medyo mahirap na rin kasing bumalik pag 3-1 na, kaya need talaga gawin ng Nuggets dito na maitabla ang series. Murray, dapat consistent lang ang laro kasi siya ang nagdadala sa team, kung low scoring sila, malaki chance matalo ang Nuggets.

Dito kailangan yung assasin mindset ni ANT tutal talagang kinukumpara sya kay MJ dapat ung level of competitiveness nya umangat dito, alam naman natin na nung mga panahon na kasikatan pa ni MJ talagang sya ang humaharap kadalasan sa scorer though palagi nyang katulong si Pips pero yung taking responsibility dapatmang ibabaw kay ANT.

Need nila manalo sa home court nila kasi sayang yung advantage nila ngayon, pag naitabla ng Denver  maaaring maiba na ang tempo ng series na to' alam naman nating malakas din talaga ang defending champ kung magtutuloy tuloy and kumpyansa ni Murray at sabay sabay ulit na magputukan yung core ng team sa pangunguna ni Jokic, tapos Porter and Gordon naku po baka tulog ang wolves nito.

Yeah, for sure coach Yeng feels that way knowing him in terms of being emotional they are fighting in the first half but lapses in the 2nd half and just allow TNT to dominates them and counter everything that they are trying to do, it's  a big adjusment that they need if they want to prolong the series, else, it's their final game if they'll lose again in their 2nd meet up.

Congrats kabayan! solid game night for Gin kings, Mags unable to find ways to counter ginebra's attack easy ML to you!

Thanks bro.

For tonight's game i will bet for TNT as i think the Tropang Giga will still beat the wards of coach Yeng Guiao even if the latter will make some adjustments. After tonight, the series will be over and the ML odds for TNT is attractive as the odds is even.

TNT ML @1.89 vs ROS

Good luck to us guys and bet wisely.

You are lucky you get that odds. I was able to bet on TNT but got the -4.5 spread for them. It's currently a close game, TNT is even trailing by 2 points entering the 4th quarter, but there's always a run in basketball, hopefully TNT will have a big run in the 4th quarter so they'll be able to cover the spread.

The missing link here is Oftana, he is pretty limited with single digit score only, I'm hoping for a big 4th quarter game, especially his 3 point shooting.

Still not lucky at all as ROS were able to even the series. That's true, Oftana was really the missing link as he lead in game 1 and now he is very limited. It seems like ROS figure out how to defend him already and now they got the win. So let's proceed to the next game, the spread is very close because it's just -1.5 Meralco, will NLEX even the series or will their journey ends tonight? What's the verdict here guys?

ROS manage to play good defense and rotates the ball well, most players who played for them got double digits and they bring the level of competitions to the next level, good passing and good decisioning in taking closer shots, and like you both mentioned, they manage to limit the production of one of the stars of TNT, Poguy can't carry it alone, the productions of Oftana is needed here, though they tried to work it out but seems that ROS got a good answer and really shows good adjustments, final game for these two teams only one can move forward and continue the chase for the title, good luck and congrats for those who manage to make money from this game,.

Yeah, pretty normal when you are seeing that money go.

But that's the reality in gambling, sometimes we good and win but mostly we don't so, acceptance is the key when we are doing it. And even if we have the aim to double our money, it won't happen at most times.

So for those with that goal from day to day, lessen your goal as long as it's still profit because doubling or at least half of it nowadays is hard to achieve.

Yes, the reality is that what gamblers have done has actually had the opposite results as expected because instead of wanting to win by playing gambling continuously, the facts prove that winning is difficult to obtain, but they often lose.
And I agree with you that the key to solving this problem is that we must as much as possible accept the good and bad results of gambling so that we do not experience depression due to a lack of acceptance of the results that have been obtained.

Acceptance is the key and the willingness to move forward whatever the outcome, and for you to do that make sure that you are using the amount that you can afford to lose, most gamblers have their own strategy and style of playing the game, but those who have good limitations and manage to follow what they've setup are those who really makes a good outcome,.

Most of the time, when you set up a target then you already reached it instead of quitting you decide to push for more as you think that you can still make more and regret that decision afer when losing streaks start to show up and suck all the money that you've got from your wallet.
486  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling mistake repeated by the gamblers on: May 12, 2024, 03:30:24 PM
I like that statement, if you can just learn from someone's mistake then that's good for your finances but most of the time, instead of using those information due to greed and lack of understanding about gambling we also suffer with that same mistake and worse we keep on repeating that same mistake and we really lose a lot to the point that we become addicted.

It's always better to play with limitation, it's your hard earned money so better to take care of it and not to allow yourself to keep repeating then lose a lot.
Learning from other people will helps us to becomes wise gamblers because we will gets something that will gives us benefits while we playing gambling. We can use our finances properly in gambling and will not use too much money to playing gambling because that can makes us in trouble. Many mistakes already made by many gamblers so we must knows and learns how to avoids that mistakes so we don't have the same experiences like them. We can avoids the worst mistakes and with our experiences, we can use gambling as a fun thing and never use gambling for makes money.

Limitations in gambling is a must that every gamblers must have so we have to learn and practice so we can playing gambling moderately and will not too much money. We don't have to risks our money too big in gambling because we have other things that we must filled.

If you can use that knowledge that you learn from those past expereinces of other people who already in the business, you can use it to create your strategy and make sure not to suffer on that same situation, Imean if you hear or watch videos from those people who suffers from gambling, you can use those idea not to repeat that mistake but instead use it to be a basis so you can work on it and prevent the situation to happen to you.
487  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Rich or poor gambler, who should risk more? on: May 12, 2024, 04:39:12 AM

Everyone works hard enough to earn money, maybe you are very rich and have enough money but you must be careful about your money. You never want your money to be completely lost or a part of your money to be badly damaged. Investing money means using that money to make more money. There are many rich people who have lost all their wealth just by gambling. For those who may have a lot of money, losing some money by gambling will not have much effect on their economic system, but the money they lose by gambling will have to wait some time to recover that money again.  
So I think everyone has illusions of money and with illusions of money everyone takes risks including gambling.

Yes, that is something that I can also see, everyone has their dreams, but it is worth highlighting something very logical, a millionaire or rich person has no basic need other than covering their markets, or covering medical needs because they have that super insured, a normal person, middle or lower class, of course, cannot afford to spend a lot and be calm because if by bad luck he ends up spending more than he should, he has to resort to unwanted things, such as For example, asking for loans, applying for credit, and that is something that financially has long-term consequences , because expenses tend to accumulate and it is not pleasant at all.


In terms of capabilities yeah that's the advantage but if the rich person don't know how to control he can go on that same directions, he can spend amount that he can let go or extend to waste amount that is not intentionally for gambling, there's no difference between the two if we are talking about heavy addiction to gambling, they can both risk the same amount or the same way, though like what you said, rich people have enough to cover if they managely quit after playing,

 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.
488  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Understanding the Impact of Social Media in Gambling. on: May 11, 2024, 07:51:26 PM
Influencers are now willing to do anything to earn money. Although their propaganda goes against the society, they are not harmed by it. They value more on money. Moreover, in reality there is no way to say anything to them. This is only possible if the government prohibits or discourages them. Currently, the promotion of gambling sites on social media has increased so much that it is now creating a big problem especially for those who are not suitable for gambling. I've seen quite a few big influencer campaigns on my social media recently and I'm surprised to see celebrities conduct gambling campaigns like them. It is true that an influencer gets a lot of money for gambling promotion which no other platforms or businesses organization can offer. Due to which people are becoming more interested in gambling promotions. Anyway we all should raise awareness.

And that calls for being vigilant with what you are seeing over the net, particularly if you have kids who are now freely surfing the cyberspace. You need to instill the right things to do such as not to be tempted with what they are seeing or reading, don't be gullible with what the influencers are advising them to do, don't click unfamiliar sites as they might be phishing sites, among others.
Advise them not to easily fall from teasers or ads which are too-good-to-be-true. Most of them are fake and exaggerated.
Not only people need to be way more careful with the way they use the internet, they really need to begin to be more discerning with the content they choose to consume, during the last years people have grown more concerned about what they eat and the exercise necessary to keep their bodies healthy, but not such movement has surged to take care of their minds, after all if you consume nothing but the content posted by most influencers, what kind of effect do you think this can have on your mind? The same effect that you could get if you ate nothing but sweets of course.

Good point, if you can avoid those contents then you are preventing the possibilities that it can affect the way you think, there are many influencers even some of those that at first they've got decent contents but because of high demands and good  offers they allow those gambling business to penetrate and change the directions of their contents more on the money side, but moving back to that sentiments, if you don't mind those kinds of contents and you don't take time or invest time to learn about it, then there's nothing to worry as it won't pollute your minds.
489  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: cashout or wait till the end? on: May 11, 2024, 07:24:15 PM
~snip~

        -    If you're sure it's money, take it out first and just leave it as you typically do when you gamble in a casino. Because the chances are high that you will lose there, and many gamblers have experienced such that the one who thought they were going to win often turns out to lose.

Then, in the end, they were crying and regretting that they should have released their winnings. How many times did that happen, and it still happens today because of greed? That's why they experience such situations.
there is something most gamblers don't understand, so far as you have made some profits in gambling there is no need for you to be greedy just be comfortable with any little you get from gambling because a lot of people are looking for such opportunities but they are unlucky so if you place a bet and you are giving an option to cash it out just do it without having a double thought because you will hate yourself if at the end you lose all. I know that even when the cash out features have not yet been introduced people were still winning but that shouldn't make us to have same mindset that we will take all the winnings so any little profits we make we should endeavour to take it without being greedy.

Being practical is the best way to enjoy your gambling participation but not many have this kind of mindsets, gamblers mostly wants to win more and becuase greed is install inside human behaviors, if you can't control it then most of your results may failed you, but like what you said, if you have that opportunity to cashout while you still got a decent amount of profits, better to take it or regret after.

though there are gamblers who are willing to wait and leaning to their knowledge, they will push whatever the offer and even how huge it's already the potential but becuase they believe that they can win more they will push for it.
490  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling addiction causes loss on: May 11, 2024, 07:03:47 PM

a very happy person without financial problems, he can play all day, he can play every day, it is unlikely that this person will become addicted to gambling, because this person does not need to gamble to make a profit, because he has money, because this person There are many things to have fun with, so gambling isn't her only fun. Therefore, this happy person will not become addicted to gambling

This is a great point, you are absolutely right, when we compare ourselves to people who have a lot of money, things are different, people who have a lot of money do not have any difficulty, they can spend and spend so that their benefits are maintained intact, but in case the Person is middle or lower class then he has to play very carefully, in this case people who sometimes have very limited
There are many gamblers who look like they are rich but in reality they think the opposite. There are many gamblers who can hit the jackpot but are found to have higher odds than the jackpot amount. Moreover, those who need more money are more addicted to gambling. And as a result of being addicted, the amount of his loss increases automatically. If gambling can be done without being anxious to win big, even if there are no big wins, the amount of extreme losses can be reduced. The more a gambler is anxious to win, the more likely he makes lose.

Sad but reality,  those gambler who are addicted to game then they will make a way to gamble everytime they want even though they have small amount of Money then they will put a bet  that is the nature of an addicted on gambling . They can not control themselves cause greed will take over them.  Without knowing that the more they gambled the more they loss a lot of money. Yes they won a good amount but not enough to sustain thier losses.

Anyways those gambler who actually can control themselves then they will not get affected even though they are Lossing some money cause they never think that that will win in short they gamble for fun only not for making money.

Those who have that kind of thinking, they are capable to let go when the money that they spare for gambling already gone, there's no problem for them to quit, all that matters is the entertainment that they've got so that money that they spare serves as lose money for enjoyment, though not many can do the same as most gambler who got addicted are all aiming for huge money to win.

A misconceptions where they think that gambling is the best place or the quick place to make money but it's do the opposite most of the time.
491  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2024 NBA Season on: May 11, 2024, 06:49:40 PM
A good bounce back for the Nuggets to pick up that momentum after being totally locked down in game 1 and 2. And the Wolves had a very very bad game that they even gave up early in the 3rd quarter. They looked complacent sitting at 2 nothing, even Edwards was too comfortable answering the post game conference as if the Nuggets ain't capable of bouncing back and win the next 3.
This is the huge difference between an experienced against a young team who hasn't been into the finals.

Denver Nuggets were also able to get back in the series with Minnesota Timberwolves, that was huge a statement from the defending champions and to show that can also get a win on any given day. I don't know if I say that the Wolves didn't actually get complacent, I mean they were 6-0 in the playoffs so far, sweeping the Suns, and getting 2 wins on the road, one without their best defensive asset only for them to then trail for the entire night and trying to play catch up, something must have been wrong from the get-go. However, regardless of how bad the Wolves looked for most of the entire night, the Denver Nuggets offense was extremely extraordinary and deserve pretty much an equal credit for a great game.

Everything just went well for the Nuggets in this game as they are not forcing to attack inside, most of their points came from outside and they had success on that because they are rotating the ball well to avoid the pressure defense from the Wolves. Gordon was also key here as he was not defended outside, so he enjoys shooting with being contested and made 3 of his 4 attempts. There was no defense on him since he wasn't really a good 3 point shooter, but this game sees the urgency and happy to see him have that confidence of a defending champion.

And the best news is Murray is already back on his usual stats, he shoot 11-21 in game 3, pretty high perentage compared to his stats in the prior 2 games at their home court, I think this will continue and Nuggets has a chance in game 4.

Good adjustments for the Nuggets after losing twice they did a great job moving back to the usual rotations and let the core players to takeover, and likw what you said, Jamal is doing the damage, pushing it for a much better percentage of his shots, plus Gordon and Porter and yeah Jokic as always he really show up and not to let his fans down, after winning his 3rd MVP he also rewarded his fans with a win, Wolves cores unable to match up the intensity of the defending champ, they dominated the game from start to finished.
492  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling mistake repeated by the gamblers on: May 11, 2024, 06:24:03 PM
That's a good observation not because there are some gamblers who can manage to win over the house means that you can also have that same outcome, most of those who think that way mostly losses a lot, thinking that they can beat the house by using strategy coming from those who manage to win, the outcome of your gambling session depends from the luck and how you execute your strategy, the more expereinced you've got the better understanding you got,

but using the experienced the wrong way, it will keep pushing you to repeat the same mistake over and over and without doing the big adjustments, it will keep doing the same outcome better to analyze and work on it for the betterment of your entertaiment or for your benefits in terms of profits.
Well, some gamblers can really wins from the house but if we talk about the outcomes, the house still gets the biggest money than gamblers. We can gets some money that will be bigger than the other gamblers but we can't beat the house in takes the big profit because the house is the owner of the business so they will not lets gamblers gets the biggest money. We must realizes that will be difficult to wins in gambling as we already see many gamblers lose all of their money in gambling so that will be our lesson not to follows what they did.

If we can learn from their mistakes, we will avoids to do the same mistakes like them and even we will be more careful when playing gambling. We will not gets tempts in gambling because we knows that gambling can do that easily so we will always aware and carefully when playing gambling. We will always use limitations in gambling, knows when we must stops our gambling activity to avoids the big lose.

I like that statement, if you can just learn from someone's mistake then that's good for your finances but most of the time, instead of using those information due to greed and lack of understanding about gambling we also suffer with that same mistake and worse we keep on repeating that same mistake and we really lose a lot to the point that we become addicted.

It's always better to play with limitation, it's your hard earned money so better to take care of it and not to allow yourself to keep repeating then lose a lot.

It was okay in the first half but ROS don't have any counter plays when TNT start to dominates them, and the outcome as mentioned is a blowout win for TNT, there's  a need for a good adjustment from ROS if they want to extend their chance, they need to play more harder and try to work things out on both defense and offense side.

I'm expecting a close game on that match as TNT is undermanned and bang-up should we say but they blew out ROS with almost 20-point margin, coach Yeng must be so disappointed with his boys.

Two games for tonight but I will just bet on the main game.

Ginebra ML @1.89 vs Magnolia

Yeah, for sure coach Yeng feels that way knowing him in terms of being emotional they are fighting in the first half but lapses in the 2nd half and just allow TNT to dominates them and counter everything that they are trying to do, it's  a big adjusment that they need if they want to prolong the series, else, it's their final game if they'll lose again in their 2nd meet up.

494  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do some people hide to gamble on: May 11, 2024, 05:53:54 PM
As long as you can balance everything for sure things will be okay, though I get your point in terms of other people's opinions as even we are already in this modern era there are still people who affects us when they criticize whatever we are doing, gambling from other's perspectives seem not acceptable and with that bad side there are gamblers choose to keep their participation secretly.

They just don't want to answer anything and instead they just wanted to enjoy dicreetly without anything to explain about their gambling participations.

It depends on the individual how to balance it, sometimes some prefer to hide rather than let people know that we always gamble even though we say we have never been addicted.
The point of view of others will be different, when those who criticize anti-gambling people then it will be called a bad thing, but if those who criticize like to gamble then the advice will be given.


That's one of the reason why gamblers choose to hide their gambling activity because they don't want to hear any critisism from other people because it can affect their self confidence and sometimes the words that they heared from other people is below the belt when in fact, they don't contribute to the money used in gambling but the way they say a word, it's like the magnitude of the sin committed just because they know the person is gambling. They are good at criticizing, but when the gambler win a large amount of money, they are always present to ask for money and loans.

Hahaha, reality itself, when a gambler was exposed of her/his participation into gambling a lots of criticizm sorrounds him especially inside the community where perfectionist wannabe is present, but sad true that when that gambler wins a huge amount, the first one you'll see that congratulate him and waiting for some share are those people who loves to backstab.

Then again, it's all on the person and how they will take care of his/her business around this type of industry where huge criticizm is always present.

May pag asa pa kaya ang Nuggets mananalo bukas? Parang gusto kung tayaan ang moneyline.

2.46 ang odds, kasi if mananalo sila, best is tomorrow dapat para hindi na maging 3-0 ang series.
May chance pa naman siguro basta ayusin nila ang play nila, si Murray kailangan mag superstar talaga, oo physical masyado ng Timberwolves, dapat lang na i match nila ang energy.

Saka, nakakahiya naman kung ma sweep ang Nuggets na defending champion tapos si Jokic pa nanalo ng MVP this season.

Hopefully naka taya ka at nagtiwala ka sa instinct mo Boss, panalo kasi sila. Tinambakan nila Wolves katulad ng ginawa ng Wolves sa homecourt ng Nuggets din. Delikado Wolves nito pag na 2-2, taya ko dito sa series na to Wolves panalo at 4-1 ang correct score. Nasa yung 4 & 5 games są Wolves na para panalo taya ko. Wolves din ang tinayaan ko na mag champion this season. Kayo mga Sir, ano pick nyo na mag champion ngayong season?

Ganda ng series na ito lalo na kung magiging 2-2. Mukhang may chance naman kasi tinambakan ng Nuggets ang wolves sa homecourt pa mismo nila. Sa game 4, -2.5 nalang ang Wolves, pero mukhang Nuggets pa rin yan, maganda na kasi naging shooting nila at sa 3 point shooting talaga sila kumana dito.

Saka sa wakas nagising na rin si Murray with 24 points, pero ganda ng ambag rin ni Porter Jr. with 21 points. Kung ganito lang lagi, tiyak gaganda ang series na to. 48% pala ang Nuggets sa 3 point shooting, ganda.

Mayayari ang Wolves dito pag naka tie ang Denver pero sa pinakitang aggressions ng Denver mukhang kaya talaga nilang brasohin yung Wolves binabalewala lang nilayung tight defense at katulad ng sinabi mo malaking tulong yung magandang produksyon ni Murray at ni Porter kasi yung depensa ng Wolves kalat hindi katulad nung dalawang naunang laro na kay Jokic lang sila umasa at alat yung ibang core players, ngayon kasi balanse na yung scoring kaya talagang hirap yung rotation ng depensa ng Wolves, kaya kailangan  ng Wolves ng matinding basa sa naging executions ng Denver para meron silang isasagot sa game 4 need nila makaisa sa homecourt nila para mas mataas yung kumpyansa nila sa mga susunod pang laro nila.

And it looks like the elimination game will already start this Friday (tomorrow).

As we can see on the sched https://www.pba.ph/schedule...

We have NLEX vs Bolts and TNT vs Rain or shine.  I think both match ups are unpredictable, because I believe that all of them aren't playing consistent basketball, so I would just pick the underdog of the game which I think it will be the NLEX and ROS respectively.
This can be an exciting match up because it's unpredictable, we've seen their ups and downs but I think only those who are more eager to win will take the place. NLEX is getting better but yeah still inconsistent, if they are able to execute their plays well then they can have a good chance of winning here, so I'll go for NLEX as well. Though i still believe in TNT, and I think coming into this elimination they will play more as a team, and I'll place a bet with them because i believe this can be a win for them.

Meralco manage to win against NLEX both are incosistent like what you said but both did tried everything but the outcome turn in favor of Meralco, A huge prodcutions from Berto 48points but after him and Miranda there's no help that much unlike with Meralco where after Maliksi most of the players managed to share a double digits productions.

At the end of the game, it's  a team efforts who wins the game, even how hard Bolick did he can't single carried the entire team, almost but fell short.

The 4th quarter was the big difference, they lost in that quarter and probably because Bollick was already tired.

Imagine, Bollick scored 48 points and played over 40 minutes, its' really expected that he'll be tired in the 4th quarter. I think NLEX has to made sure to not allow Bollick to carry most of the load, this game is very important, good thing they still have a chance as it's a best of 3 series.

If we check the boxscore of the game. (https://pba.ph/recap?match=2444562), NLEX only had 2 players with double digit while Meralco had 6.

They need to adjust and make sure that Bollick will find someone who can help him producing decent numbers, someone who can make something decent which Meralco will also put their defense, unlike what happened today where it's mostly Bollick and we see him really tired and unable to catch up in the last few minutes, it's something that coach Pido needs to adjust he needs to find those role players to help just like how Meralco play them.
I think Bollick is not anymore under Pido, I just have to confirm and see that "Frankie Lim" is the coach of NLEX.
NLEX had a good coach I think as it was able to make Bollick stay consistent with his superstar production, but they should learn their lesson, this is a quarter finals match up,  one loss and their journey is over, so next game is really important for them and I think that time I'll be betting on the NLEX .

Thanks for correcting me, Yes it was coach Frankie lim who's coaching NLEX and like what you mentioned, they need to learn about this loss and make a good adjustment on their next game, it can be their last attempt as if they lose another game then Meralco will advance to the next round.

2nd game between TNT and ROS both are unpredictable let see who's going to win this match I like to see ROS just an opinion it's been a long time for them to move to the next round, let see if that is now possible to happen.

The first half was quite a competitive match, however, the 2nd half especially the 4th quarter was different as TNT exploded which resulted to a blowout win.

It was okay in the first half but ROS don't have any counter plays when TNT start to dominates them, and the outcome as mentioned is a blowout win for TNT, there's  a need for a good adjustment from ROS if they want to extend their chance, they need to play more harder and try to work things out on both defense and offense side.

That's right, it is very important that we be able to guard ourselves so as not to be incited by greed which can cause us to experience greater losses when we follow the desires of greed. It's possible that those who play the game impatiently will of course not be able to control themselves and if that's the case, it's likely that they will take actions that are not carefully considered, in other words they will take action spontaneously without thinking about the impact that will occur. what would it be like if they did that? and as you said, if they are impatient, it is likely that they will only experience defeat.

I once saw a gentleman who was standing watching the progress of gambling, he continued to pay attention and observe the progress of gambling with his hands folded crosswise in front. and immediately he placed a bet and was able to win, I don't know what he was thinking while he was watching and observing the gambling but what he did made me a little confused. Maybe this is one of the behaviors called patience in gambling, so that you don't place bets carelessly and just hope for a miracle.

By experienced for sure, the person you mentioned knew that there's always a good timing for everything and he use that knowledge to assess and analyze before placing his bet, though it's not always the outcome as knowing the nature of gambling, even how sure you are there's always upset that can take place,

you just need to be ready in accepting whatever the outcome might be, it helps you not to engage that much and lose more if ever your prediction or your analysis did not work according to your plan.

Keep it in mind that re-assessment will always gives you better insight instead of blindly place another bet in hope that it will allow you to recover your losses.

And it looks like the elimination game will already start this Friday (tomorrow).

As we can see on the sched https://www.pba.ph/schedule...

We have NLEX vs Bolts and TNT vs Rain or shine.  I think both match ups are unpredictable, because I believe that all of them aren't playing consistent basketball, so I would just pick the underdog of the game which I think it will be the NLEX and ROS respectively.
This can be an exciting match up because it's unpredictable, we've seen their ups and downs but I think only those who are more eager to win will take the place. NLEX is getting better but yeah still inconsistent, if they are able to execute their plays well then they can have a good chance of winning here, so I'll go for NLEX as well. Though i still believe in TNT, and I think coming into this elimination they will play more as a team, and I'll place a bet with them because i believe this can be a win for them.

Meralco manage to win against NLEX both are incosistent like what you said but both did tried everything but the outcome turn in favor of Meralco, A huge prodcutions from Berto 48points but after him and Miranda there's no help that much unlike with Meralco where after Maliksi most of the players managed to share a double digits productions.

At the end of the game, it's  a team efforts who wins the game, even how hard Bolick did he can't single carried the entire team, almost but fell short.

The 4th quarter was the big difference, they lost in that quarter and probably because Bollick was already tired.

Imagine, Bollick scored 48 points and played over 40 minutes, its' really expected that he'll be tired in the 4th quarter. I think NLEX has to made sure to not allow Bollick to carry most of the load, this game is very important, good thing they still have a chance as it's a best of 3 series.

If we check the boxscore of the game. (https://pba.ph/recap?match=2444562), NLEX only had 2 players with double digit while Meralco had 6.

They need to adjust and make sure that Bollick will find someone who can help him producing decent numbers, someone who can make something decent which Meralco will also put their defense, unlike what happened today where it's mostly Bollick and we see him really tired and unable to catch up in the last few minutes, it's something that coach Pido needs to adjust he needs to find those role players to help just like how Meralco play them.

totally agree with this. control what you can control. because this is between money and emotions, it is more important to control money first and then control emotions when playing. But if you're not in the mood, it's better to save your desire to gamble so you don't experience defeat and can't accept defeat, because at that time, we are the ones being played by the game.
For what I can tell very often people do not take their hobbies seriously enough, as they think there is not need to do this since they just want to relax and obtaining some fun, but if a person does not mentally prepare themselves for the different scenarios they may face, then when some adverse conditions get to happen they will not know how to react, and that is when massive losses could be incurred by those people.
as long as the person is okay with losing money while gambling in an emotional state, I think that's right. but as far as I know, most gamblers are not just a hobby. They think gambling is a place to get rich quickly or just multiply the money they have.
That is why, as a gambler, you must be able to control your emotions so that you don't lose too much when playing. that way they won't be frustrated because of their defeat.

Yeah, it will not adds up to the pressure that they felt once they experienced defeats, most of the time when you are not willing to let go such amount of money that you lose when you enter the house, you tend to add more thinking that you may able to recover those amount when luck permits you, but eventually it will just adds up to your adrenaline that you always needs to keep pushing forward, instead of enjoying you'll keep trying your best to make some decent profits.

Which always leads you to keep losing more and not to just let the enjoyment be the price of your participation, though there are some who can make money out from gambling but more are just being blinded of their beliefs that they can easily and quickly make money from their gambling participations.
