I do think heat will make a series out of it now seeing how much heart they showed in the last game.
Butler does want to win this thing even though he is against enormous odds and lakers getting embrarassed with such bad play.
You can expect them to come out guns ablazing and try to tie up this thing to make it to game seven. Wink

5 matches still ahead of us and I have 2 draw picks.

The last match on the schedule (Orlando - Columbus) is actually postponed with no new date afaik, so there is only 4 matches left I think. You and ralle14 both have 8 till now, so you are in a good position both. But buwaytress is still in good shape with 7 as well, since he has two upsets picked with New England and Turkey, which not many others at the top might have. So if these two are correct......
Are you sure about orlando's match being postponed? I see on my app their is another mls match postponed but theirs is still scheduled in an hour and half from now.
I see 7 people on the leaderboard with 9 correct so far with new york and new england still in progress.
If I were to get the two remaining ones right, then I would have 9 but I don't think it would be enough. Cause all them can't get them all wrong there is no way. Embarrassed

Interesting MMaster this round, will be tough for me to pick out the upsets, but I'm probably going to stick to my policy of no draw selections here! Always fancy a Swiss upset against one of the big boys and maybe Spain could be ripe for an upset. Croatia as well, even England. Tough choices to make =)

@actmyname: 52! Let's go for 40!
England did win their match and most supporters were not expecting them to win. Undecided
Most of the other games were resulting in the favorites winning their matches expect for wales where they drew with ireland. Embarrassed

Nadal just won roland garros in straight sets against djokovic.
He retains his title of being the king of clay. Smiley
I expected more of a fight from novak but I guess he wasn't in rhythm since the beginning of the match taking a 6-0 beating from rafa. Embarrassed

When I checked the leaderboard there were all 6's on the board so those up there only got 1 game wrong while wales was not graded yet.
All I can hope for now is those two draws hit for me just like ireland vs wales did but I got it wrong. Undecided

Missed the NBA contest due to being little busy IRL.
@BetBTC, what about tomorrow's contest on predicting total goals in the major leagues in soccer as there's no match this week? Got any other plan or it will resume next week?

Sunday Wizard campaign will resume next week!
And if you could up the prize amount 0.05btc total to be won just like last time to make up for the missing week, then this would be welcomed to those who want to participate.

The prize is always 0.05BTC, we just have to reach the number of participations Roll Eyes
The first one did not reach the 50+ participant quota so to win this amount. Undecided
Can you show those 50 participants? I believe there were only less than 10.
I was under the impression you did this because being the first time offering this contest so you gave viscore, who won with his total goal prediction this 0.05.
If you can offer this same amount since we are missing another week due to nations league play then this would be welcoming for more to participate.

Platinum was like 200$ and Platinum 2 was 300 or 350$. Platinum 3 I think was 500 or 600$. Havent gone higher...
Are you sure about those number? Frankly speaking I do not understand how they calculate the amount for the bonus once we get ranked up.
I'm platinum 2, as I remember I did not get that much when I reached my platinum 2 rank.
If I remember it correctly, it was like a half what you mention here. If what you mention here is based on your own experience, now I wonder how is the calculation for the bonus?
His amounts are wrong, it depends on how much you lost also overall. I am plat 4 and got a pretty big bonus because I was down overall.. It all depends on your progress and profit / loss.
This is true.
When I became platinum, I began seeing platinum vip's getting more than what I received. So I inquired about it and this is exactly what they told me about how those amounts are calculated overall.
And if the player who ranks up and receives their bonus once they reach their vip bonus amount, then they are directed to support who can show them a chart with how much their profit and losses are in bitcoin and usd valued amounts.

I can see both germany and spain winning their matches going into today's remaining game for this multimasters.
The opposing sides are heavy underdogs @11.00x & @7.80x respectively.

I’m sure I read that Juve refused to release their players for the internationals. It’s all about money, it’s the only reason these games are being player. The real bread & butter is club football.
No kidding? Sad
So no rolando in the UEFA play for portugal then? What a shame clubs do this to their players under contract. If they want to play for their country. But it is what it is. Undecided
I would of thought it was for reasons due their last match being forfeited. I didn't look into the details to why they didn't play last weekend.

This isn't true. Ronaldo played in the friendly game against Spain this week and if he plays in a friendly then he'll almost certainly be playing in the Nations League game tomorrow. I'm not even sure clubs can withhold players like this, otherwise they would probably just do it all the time as they don't want to risk them getting inured. The only people who probably have a say whether they're playing or not is the players themselves. I'm sure I remember Ronaldo missing a few pointless international games before whilst he's been on sunning it up on holiday. He might have even missed some games for Real or Juve when they've not mattered as well.
Yeah. I would agree with you there.
This is Nations league play and this is the qualifying stage so his county's team most certainly would want him to dress for this one. They need to pass the round to move on to the next stage of the pool.
If it is really up to the players whether they play or not and not up to their respective league in la liga/series a/premier/la ligue, then I would say he will play in tomorrow's match for portugal as well.

https://sport.blic.rs/tenis/novak-djokovic-najnovije-vesti-otkazao-trening-polufinale-rolan-garosa/txhf3k9

could be sensational, but Djokovic has called-off this training practice yesterday, personally do not think that he will cancel the match in any case, but there was no press-conference and training yesterday

That is enough news for me to place small bet on Tsitsi on one of the bookies that grade forfeit as a regular bet. Always worth a shot. Wbet7 for instance considered match as regular if 1 game has been played. Have to check if that is still true. Some other bookies like Nitrogen grade it as regular if one set has been played. And some void the bet even if somebody forfeits two points from the end of the match.

I wasn't really able to find more sources to confirm this, but I also placed a (handicap) bet on Tsitsipas.

On the women side, I expect Kenin to win but Swiatek was impressive this French Open. What is a bit surprising to me, is that the bookies see Swiatek as the favorite (@1.55) ?!

Yeah because Swiatek beat all her opponents in two set matches even against the number 1 Halep.
So she is the favorite even though she hasn't won a title yet and kenin is the more experienced of the two in these tournaments.
But she is holding her own against the australian open champion of last year.

Currently, the balances of funds are not displayed on bitmex for a lot (all ?) users, ouch, they cannot use their funds to trade or withdraw.
Yeah it seems like their platform is bleeding out and is going to die soon enough.
Their CTO was arrested just a few days ago and I can see the CEO is going to be next.
They got Mcafee while he didn't even step on US soil in an attempt to avoid tax evasion and they eventually did catch up with him after almost a decade of running from the law. So Arthur Hayes days are numbered and he knows it by resigning as his role of the big boss at bitmex.

Everybody is flawless in the first two matches that are completed on day one. Smiley
Now if germany doesn't mess their match up we will be all going into day two with all correct selections.

1000$ wagered is 1 ticket. The 2 ticket promo was only for a couple of days and ended last week on monday.
Yeah, I could of sworn it was for a limited time and I think the time was up already.
Thanks for the update on this.
As for the house edge in the previous comment right above this post;
this is why I always play blackjack as it has the lowest house edge of any game on stake. Grin

Are you guys ready for the NBA Finals Game 5?
I don't watch the NBA matches at all; I picked Miami Heat for the last couple of matches and lost every bets although the amount was pretty low, for the sake of participating in the contest TBH. I don't have much idea as well, hence, I don't take risk by placing bigger amount.
Nevertheless, again I will be picking Miami Heat. It's possible that I will get back my previous losses as it will be a high odd for them I guess.
Good luck! I'm happy to still see some love for the Heat tonight though the Lakers fans are all over.
They could ruin the black mamba uniform as Lakers dedicated this game for him and of course want to win this, I'll lay on the Heat + points but not on ML.
Oh then it looks like my bet has already lost since I put it on the heat for the nba competition for tonight. Lips sealed
If the lakers dedicated this game in his memory then they will play lights out and will try to end it here and now in his legacy of a weird and strange year in the nba season.
I can see miami just giving up even before it starts for this very same reason. Embarrassed

These vip bonuses some are talking about is also dependent on how much the player vip account has won and lost. Atleast this is what I was told a while ago when I reached the last vip level on there. I don't know if this has changed or is just a static bonus amount now.

Does anyone know if we are still receiving 2x the amount of raffle tickets for the amount we are wagering or is this promotion over now?
We still have until close to Christmas to collect as many as we can until the raffle is drawn for the lambo. Smiley

Speaking of cryptocurrency and those who seem to scam people out of their own money and who oppose government regulation,
As I mentioned in my last post John Mcafee is an huge advocate of cryptocurrency privacy when it comes his own creation on the subject ghost.
He was arrested just this week due to evading the us government on not paying taxes.
Funny thing is he had been avoiding being caught by stepping on us soil but was arrested in spain.
So those two countries do have ties in their government business affairs when it comes to money and finances.
4939  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BREAKING: Square & Twitter's Boss, Jack Dorsey buys $50M worth of Bitcoin. on: October 09, 2020, 08:36:54 PM
Yep, we are still at the point where any public endorsement by prominent figures is important and helpful. Maybe in 10 years no one will care if some company buys $50M worth of Bitcoin, but today it's clearly enough to move the market.

Apparently so! I honestly thought the market's no longer prone to such sentiment moving but it does appear to still have an effect. Good news for those wondering if it's "too late" to get into Bitcoin for sure. And that includes guys like me who fully believe it's not too late, yet deep down we wonder if we could be wrong;)
It will always be prone to such headlines such as the stock market and any other market for that matter would be.
If elon musk said he is quitting tesla wouldn't you think there would be atleast some thing to happen to their stock price?
Of course their would, so is the same for bitcoin's price when it comes to such news.
People buying up bitcoin worth the hundred thousands will pump up the price I am sure.
It is up over $1k since the news hit the media and it has not really slowed down.
4940  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: October 09, 2020, 08:29:57 PM
I think miami heat are emotional depleted at this point so they will just play half harted and the lakers will take the championship tonight.
This is almost certain now.
Really liked to see more games but oh well they did what a team like theirs could do against so many veterans compiled into this seasons lakers team.
