Mukhang maganda ang laban ng Celtics vs Memphis, pero sa Memphis ako -3.5.

Nets vs Miami Heat - kung maglalaro na si Durant +3.5 sa kanila, maganda rin ang ML bet para sa Nets kung gusto nyo ng dehado.

Medyo delikado tong dalawang laro para sa mga road teams brader kasi yong Celtics at Heat ay napakaganda ng kanilang laro lately pero kung babalik si Durant ngayon, may chance ang Nets na manalo rito.

Nets -2.5 @2.04 vs Heat, mukhang maglalaro si Durant kasi slight fvorite na sila sa odds.

3-1 na ang standings ko this week, hindi pa lugi hehe.

Talo mga taya ko hehehe, kala ko makakahabol ang Memphis, pinilit ni Ja Morant na dalhin ang team pero maganda rin pinakita ni Tatum sa home crowd.

Tapos and Nets naman kinapos, naglaro is Durant pero may kulang pa talaga sa team.

Nag live betting na lang ako sa Clippers laban sa Lakers at buti nakadale kahit paano.

Suns vs NYK - Suns -6.5 o kaya baka mas mataas pa dyan sa spread, mukhang nagkakalat na ang NYK ngayon.

Here is the statement from the 4 governing bodies of boxing:

Quote
The four governing organizations responsible for overseeing boxing title matchups around the world -- the WBC, WBA, IBF and WBO -- announced in a joint statement that they won't sanction any such bouts in Russia because of the invasion of Ukraine.

https://www.espn.com/boxing/story/_/id/33381629/boxing-governing-organizations-sanction-title-bouts-russia-due-invasion-ukraine

So it clearly states that any fight in Russia will be sanction. It didn't mention about Russian fighters not able to fight outside of Russia. So I think this is still a go fight in May 7.

glad I bought more during the dip.
Congrats! You made it.

Just like anyone else that has missed the 2017 ride and then goes through the 2018 bear. This was just another chance that has passed for the others.

What's next within the next 2-4 years? Maybe we'll get to see the same stories of those that have bought the dip and we'll be back again in here for being grateful for buying the dip.
The decline is a great opportunity for us to buy, but what we really need is patience in holding, because there is no point in buying a lot but if he does not dare to hold for a long time, now I hope we will soon see a new era that is more good with a market that can continue to be in a bullish trend.


Not everyone knows how to take advantage of the declining price. There could be some that is still patiently waiting till the price goes on a down ward spiral before they buy. It's really up to us on how and when to buy. Again, we've seen a decrease in price today, to $41k and yet investors are not buying because they want < $40k in my opinion. But the question is, can we go down below that price range again or we will have a good bounce again to $45k?
4924  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: March 04, 2022, 10:58:33 AM
Even though they lost, Durant had a good performance for his first game from injury. It was a close game until the end but that crucial shot (3 points) just won't go in. He'll just get better from here as he becomes more comfortable in the court.

Heat is impressive once again even without Butler and Lowry. They had a tough loss against the Bucks but they were quick to bounce back. They are probably the best team without an all-star member in the NBA.
Correct. Butlers, Lowry, and Tucker sitting on the sidelines. But amazingly the young guys did a great job preventing the Nets to celebrate the return of Kevin Durant. I am now excited at how the playoffs will be in the Eastern Conference.
Teams like the Miami Heat have an upper hand when injuries come especially in a tight game in the playoffs where more players are being injured due to forcing everything. If they can win games without their stars it creates more confidence to the bench players and that's a big factor during the playoffs.

Bam and Tyler Herro, two old but reliable Heat players, they have been with the team before and they know how to win games. And then we have players like Strus and Caleb Martin as well scoring in double digits so that is a huge lift for them. Durant in his come back with 31 big points, he just didn't get enough help like Seth Curry and LA.

For those who are interested to hear and see the two fighters in their final press conference:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=umG3hY9tBLE

Gonzalez is very happy and excited that the fight will push through and have a good replacement in Martinez because he is unpredictable. While Martinez will have a chance to break into this division with a fight against the legendary fighter.

FUD will still be part of the market though and it will have a drastic impact although not as devastated as previous years maybe because we have matured enough and those who panic are just newbies in the market.

It's obvious that he have recovered some that we have lost in January to February. And hopefully we can continue their run to at least $50k at the end of the month.

If I'm going to speculate most likely it will be Binance because if I'm not mistaken, CZ himself donated some according to news that I have read.

Anyhow, even here in our community, there is a call to help Ukrainian in this war and if we could donate some: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5387586.0

So it's really up to us whether to donate or not.

In a desperate attempt to try and keep the team afloat, the Lakers have released Deandre Jordan and plan to sign D.J. Augustin.  They're saying that Jordan will likely go on to play for the 76ers, who seem to be amassing as much talent as they can to make a run with Joel Embiid, who is playing the best basketball of his career while managing to stay healthy.  I'm not sure if this would be a good move for the Sixers or not, but James Harden and Deandre Jordan are both Brooklyn Nets survivors now of the KD/Kyrie pairing and might be able to bond over that shared experience...

https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/33394673/philadelphia-76ers-emerging-frontrunners-bring-deandre-jordan

Perhaps they know that they need another big guy to back up Joel. Initially they have Drummond to do that but he was involved in the trade and was doing good with the Nets right now. But DJ is no longer at his prime, so I don't know if he can cover Joel or even help the Sixers. Anyhow, it's good to see that he can still get into a good team despite being released by LA.
4930  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Canelo Alvarez vs Dmitry Bivol - May 7 on: February 28, 2022, 11:26:04 PM
It's official, one the most anticipated match this year has been confirmed. Canelo Alvarez will fight Dmitry Bivol on May 7. And not only that, if by chance he won against Bivol, Canelo will be facing GGG next (assuming GGG wins his fight with Murata).

I think this is a two-fight package (not sure though), after this one he would fight GGG for the trilogy so win or lose he will face GGG.

There's a report (or maybe I will consider it as an article from the author's perspective), that Canelo will fight GGG, not because of the reputation, fame, or to settle everything with the trilogy and prove that he's the one dominating, but the money purse on this fight is something he can't resist.

The author mentioned that Canelo is unfair as he waits for GGG to hit old age before accepting the trilogy fight which is already requested for a long, while currently, he's in the prime to make sure GGG won't stand a chance or have an advantage on their trilogy. Easy big money while having a not much big threat that Canelo will lose in the fight.

What do you think guys?

Yeah, with the huge demand on this fight, plus the date of the fight itself, the tickets could sell out literally in minutes regardless of the price. And this could be one of the biggest fight in history and maybe can get to the numbers similar to Pacquiao vs Mayweather. Who can't resist $100 m++ per fight?  Let me quote Floyd, hehehe:

May kinalaman kaya ang Russia at Ukraine crisis sa pagbaba ng Bitcoin?

Biglaan na naman kasi ang pagbaba (though hindi naman unusual) na akala ng iba ay tapos na ang bearish season. Kalimitan kasi may specific reason na nakakaapekto sa market na dahilan ng correction. Ano sa tingin nyo?

Hindi naman siguro kasi crypto ang bitcoin kaya hindi masyadong affected sa crisis. In fact, meron ngang news na i legalized na ng Ukraine ang bitcoin sa kanilang country, kaya tingin ko positive talaga. Actually, hindi naman puro paangat ang crypto, gaya ng dati, meron ding bear market.

Mahirap talaga mag speculate pero tingnan mo ang galawan, pag atake ni Putin lagapak tayo sa $35k.

Tapos biglang angat sa almost $40k, tapos ngayon pag gising ko ng madaling araw lagpas $41k at mukang mag $42k pa to.

Kaya kakaiba ang movement ngayong ng market. Although naniniwala rin ako na nasa bear market na tayo, pero hindi ito katulad ng galaw nung 2018. Kaya obserbahan parin natin ang epekto ng giyera sa pagitan ng Russia at Ukraine at ano ang epekto nito sa market.

It looks like selling your crypto for money when they are profitable is more safer than holding them for long, my point is only very few coins are worth holding for many years, if you still doubt about this go on coinmarketcap and look at most coins that came into this world in 2018 many of them have no volume again, the shocking one to me is gowithmi, a project that my elder brother praised so much at the time but today it's volume is not up to 50k, many projects will face same fate, be smart

Of course, both BTC and ETH are prime movers, so you really need to hold them in order to make huge profits in the future. 2018 was really bad for the altcoin market, even ETH's lowest low was in 2018, but they have gain so much and for sure if you have stayed with them, you are very profitable even today, even if the price is way below their last ATH. And yes, maybe your brother just hold some shitcoin that's why it didn't do well, so we really need to invest on coins in the top 10-20 marketcap.
4933  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Betting on the war on: February 28, 2022, 09:39:37 PM
There is really something wrong here, very bad and immoral to have this kind of betting prediction. Same here, I wouldn't participated. This kind of prediction sites have existed for many years in crypto space, but this is the first time that I've heard that a certain platform is trying to exploit a the conflict that we are seeing right now.
4934  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Sentiment Poll for March on: February 28, 2022, 09:12:48 PM
I voted for Yes, just right now we have broken that $40k barrier, and it seems it is holding as of now at it goes to $41k. And maybe we can go as high as $45k this month before we can see some correction.

I don't want to attribute the current surge in price to the war, but it seems this is the case right now. Maybe wealthy people are putting their wealth into bitcoin specially people near the border of Russia and Ukraine.
4935  Local / Pamilihan / Re: NBA discussion, betting and etc. on: February 28, 2022, 02:23:38 PM

Gusto ko tong Sixers, iba ang galaw ni Joel Embiid, pang MVP.

Tama ka, lalong lumakas at gumana lumaro si Embiid tapos sinabayan din ng magandang laro ni Harden, sobra sobra sa cover yung handicap kaya lusot tong taya nyo dito.

Celtics vs Pacers - Celtics -7.5, maganda rin ang Celtics at malaki pag asa na tambakan ang Pacers


Samantalang dito, kabaligtaran, Celtics ang tinanmbakan ng Pacers di ko napanuod pero nagtaka ako kasi base sa scoring nandun naman sila tatum, Brown at Smart. Talagang may alat sa NBA.

Malas nga Celtics kahapon, ni hindi nakaporma eh, buti nananalo ang Sixers kaya bawi lang.

Sa Nets at Raptors game, baka may silat ang Nets dito +2.5.

Memphis vs Spurs - Memphis ako -8.5.

Locking this thread for good. Whether we will see a rematch, depends on their promoter. I know that majority here loses money on Ancajas, but we can always recover and bounce back on other fight. And congrats to Martinez and we do hope that Jerwin will learn a lot from this fight and comeback strong.
4937  Economy / Speculation / Re: Crypto prices crash as threat of war looms on: February 28, 2022, 01:01:12 PM
Indeed, the performance of bitcoin and other crypto-assets since last week has experienced a very deep price decline due to one of the factors due to the war that occurred between Russia and Ukraine. The aftermath of the war affects the performance of cryptocurrencies, which could exacerbate a weaker spontaneous market reaction resulting in a deep price drop. It is likely that the price of bitcoin will continue to fall in the short term if global market headwinds and European geopolitics persist.

It might have affected the performance of crypto, but it was just on short term though. The prices seems to be recovery, but we should still be very vigilant as we don't know what is going to be the impact if other countries join into this war. This politicking is really ugly and now its resulted into a full blown war. We just had a 2 year battle with Covid that really weakens the economy and now we have this.
4938  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: February 28, 2022, 12:27:56 PM
That PnR game between Harden and Embiid looks unstoppable at times, Knicks with two bigs fouled out in just over 3 quarters and 76ers with 44 free throws...the closest we've gotten to A. Stoudemire and Nash PnR action imo. Apparently, those 27 FTs by Embiid are the most taken by any player this season - source, Harden and Embiid combined for 37 FTs, and it's been just two games. lol

I have the 76ers in a three-team parlay with Boston and Charlotte. Normally, when i back a few favorites, i wind up with multiple upsets. The Pistons have the league's worst road record, and while the Pacers have Brogdon back from injury, they are nowhere near Boston, no upsets...please.  Grin

That game was hard to watch not only because I'm a knick fan but dam all them fouls.  Killed any momentum either team had.  Knicks rolled over in the 4th again.  They need to draft someone who knows how to finish games.  Terrible showing in the 4th

Yes, it was a different Knicks for this year, no doubt that some heads are going to roll when their campaign ends for this season. No playoff run this year for them, unlike last year wherein the Knicks was a very tough team to beat because of their leader Julius Randle.

Nets vs Raptors - I will go with the underdog Nets +2.5.
4939  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto space is a land of possibilities on: February 27, 2022, 05:27:13 PM
Yea..it's a land of endless possibilities and also a land of endless regrets as well. Brace up for both the pains and the gains.
Agreed, So many people are winning the game but remember that there will always be loosers and we have so many loosers in this game. This is about how smart you are to taking any possibilities. Crypto can make someone become a new millionaire in a night but it can also make someone lose his house in a few minutes. In so many news we have seen that people lost their live saving due to the cryptocurrency.
The only problem is when people know that investing in meme token is a high risk but they are still doing it. This is their fault.

Right, but take note though, not just in crypto, all investment opportunities involved risk so regrets is just part of the game, or shall I say our life. Maybe some have that element of luck in crypto, being early bagholders, didn't know about certain coin but just decided to take the risk and then win big in the end. And then on the other side of the coin, investing on project that has a lot of promises but in the end, it was a complete disaster.

@bisdak40, pati sa Raptors talo  pa rin, mukhang malas tayo ngayon.
Bawi tayo sa PBA mamaya.
Oo, talo yong dalawang picks ko kanina, medyo hindi maganda ang mga sugal ko kanina dahil talo pa rin sa boxing kay Ancajas  Sad.

Hindi ako nakataya kanina sa NBA pero parehas tayo kay Ancajas, talo, although may nakita akong sign bago ang actual na bakbakan na hindi maganda pero hindi ko na kinontra ang taya ko.

Sixers -8.5 @1.99 vs Knicks, parang ang gana na maglaro ni Harden kasama si Embiid kay sigurado akong tambak na naman ito.

Gusto ko tong Sixers, iba ang galaw ni Joel Embiid, pang MVP.

Celtics vs Pacers - Celtics -7.5, maganda rin ang Celtics at malaki pag asa na tambakan ang Pacers
