It looks like Eddie Hearn is really Hyping and manipulating the fight by saying that Robert Helenius is a dangerous opponent for Anthony Joshua, for sure he is saying something like this to just hype the fight but the funny thing is if he is not really hyping the fight then he doesn't know what he is saying and it is clear that the Netizens already know what will be the result of this fight but surely Robert Helenius is the only one that has confirms as a replacement for this fight but surely maybe there is a much good one instead of Helenius but surely Robert Helenius surely needs money for him as a replacement,

Surely Robert Helenius is no match for Anthony Joshua, in this fight, you can see the technicality in Joshua's movements in conditioning Helenius where the jab will go and trapping him and pressuring Helenius in the ropes for that feint switching his punches on Robert Helenius Face or Body, surely a very bright Anthony Joshua in this event, he didn't do anything crazy this time and he is very solid towards the fight, and it was really reassuring that he's really going to win this fight for sure,


It was a clear Hyping of Eddie Hearn for saying that Robert Helenius will be dangerous against Anthony Joshua which is not the thing we have seen because Anthony Joshua destroyed Helenius with a single punch, a technical knockout from Anthony Joshua for sure Anthony Joshua is now using feints for sure it was a great fight for Anthony Joshua but it was not well received by many because they probably know that Anthony Joshua will surely win this even though the fight hasn't started yet,


That same figure might not be that likely anymore because people already know what would happen in that fight and it is already expected as well that it will be a short fight because we know that Nate will dominate Jake Paul in a way that he will not expect it. But a $2 Million fight for Nate on their rematch will be a disrespect, Jake Paul is not that kind of fool who will give him that figure as a guaranteed money because if it weren't because of Nate, those figures are not likely.

Yup! It will not be going to be the same figures as their 1st fight but surely the next fight is MMA, so it does not have the same revenue as boxing fights, but surely both fighters agreed that they will have another fight, and this time for sure Dana White wants to produce and handle the fight between Jake Paul And Nate Diaz, but surely they don't really want anyone to help them manage an MMA fight, but maybe there will be a different combat sports to help this settle an MMA fight,

The ASL tourney is played using the one and only original Starcraft/Broodwar!  Wink  Starcraft 2 is commercialized trash designed to make money out of the brand instead of making an awesome RTS game.  SC/BW was made with passion and a vision by a rag tag group of game developers.  I don't think we'll see such a perfect RTS game made again.

I'll bump the thread when the first round of match for the Round of 24 starts.

Anyway here's the post fight press conference.

UFC on ESPN 51:  Post Fight Press Conference
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMCI3JSGMgc

Luque was supposedly rushed to the hospital for medical check ups.  Not sure if it's anything serious.

Well even though I am not a gamer, I have seen the Starcraft Broodwar game and it was stunning even though it was released in the 90's well I don't know if it's along with Battle Realms, but that 2 games was really a worth while, that I could remember but maybe I will just spot your thread later,



Now here is the result of my pick for the UFC fight night, it was 2 losses and just 1 win for me

Vicente Luque (1.98) VS Rafael dos Anjos (1.84) - LOST

Surely Vicente Luque has dominated RDA in this fight but sure I really thought that he has a problem with his recent injury surely his doctor was right to clear him because Luque was looking good at this fight Vicente Luque pressured RDA at the start of the fight for sure he was looking good at the standing and with the ground game surely RDA is great in the ground but Luque still dominated the ground attack and surely takedown defense as well, RDA didn't do much with the ground game because Luque always counters his move, and so Vicente Luque surely win this,



Cub Swanson (2.85) VS Hakeem Dawodu (1.43) - LOST

It was another loss for me this was a pretty much close game and I thought that I won this one but Hakeem Dawodu lost by a decision but surely for me, I thought that Dawodu win this, and surely the judges have rob Hakeem Dawodu his win, but surely maybe that ground control was counted by the judge, as well,



Khalil Rountree (1.55) VS Chris Daukaus (2.48) - WIN

This fight was super fast and round 1 was all Khalil Rountree needed to win this, and for sure just like I have said Khalil Rountree can hit like a truck, it was a solid win for him, and that punch was all he need to bring down Daukaus, and following it with that strong punch on the ground,

^You are lucky! Another loss for me.  Cheesy I don't what's happening but this is kind of a bad omen.

Atlanta Dream was in a good lead in the first half but the LA Sparks are damn good, especially Jordin Canada who lead the team at both scoring and facilitating. 20 points and 8 assists. Because of that, they took the lead in the third quarter and never let go of it.

Connecticut Sun on the other hand cannot take the lead against Dallas Wings. I think DeWanna Bonner messed up with her game because of the ruckus against the Wings bench in the first quarter when the refs gave her a technical foul. She only score 3 points which is not normal because she mostly scores by double digits.

Tomorrow we have 4 games. Some of it is too early for my timeline so I am putting my bets.
Ain't going to stop until I break the losing streak.

Seattle Storm - Phoenix Mercury - Seattle Storm (-1.5)
Indiana Fever - New York Liberty - New York Liberty (-10.5)

I cannot find the other early game yet at Stake.com. Maybe later.

Just Making a break for the losses I get, but surely I will be making a bounce back for the games tomorrow, and sorry for your losses that was 5 losses back to back, it was a big haul if only we bet for the underdog, but surely it was really hard to predict,

Indiana Fever (4.90) VS New York Liberty (1.14)

The game will Commence at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, home of the Indiana Fever, right now the Indiana Fever doesn't have any injuries while Han Xu has a foot injury and can not play for the New York Liberty, for this game we all know how formidable of a team the New York Liberty is and they are in the top of the Eastern Conference for nothing so my pick is the New York Liberty,



Seattle Storm (1.74) VS Phoenix Mercury (1.98)

The game will Commence at Climate Pledge Arena, home of the Seattle Storm, right now Gabby Williams has a foot injury and can not play for the Seattle Storm, while Skylar Diggins-Smith has a personal problem and Shey Peddy has a Concussion and both can not play for the Phoenix Mercury, for this game this could be a close game for sure even though the Storm has some advantage I will take a risk my pick is the Phoenix Mercury,



Las Vegas Aces (1.04) VS Atlanta Dream (8.60)

The game will Commence at Michelob ULTRA Arena, home of the Las Vegas Aces, right now Candace Parker has an ankle injury and Riquna Williams is suspended and both can not play for the Las Vegas Aces, while the Atlanta Dream doesn't have any injuries, for this game The Las Vegas Aces is on top of the Western Conference standings and only has 3 losses on the WNBA, because of that for this game my pick is the Las Vegas Aces,



505  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 WNBA Discussion and Betting on: August 13, 2023, 08:58:13 AM
Damn guys, we ain't lucky this week. If only I caught that game by New York Liberty, I may have won at least one game.

Anyway, moving on. Well, we have no choice but to move on.
2 games later and I made a mistake yesterday at putting my bet so early that I didn't notice it was for today.
So, I guess I won't have to choose as I already made my choice.  Grin

L.A. Sparks - Atlanta Dream - Atlanta Dream ML @1.87

Dallas Wings - Connecticut Sun - Connecticut Sun ML @2.02

Upon checking now, there's not much change in the odds. Good luck to everyone and I hope it will be different today. Let's break the losing curse.


Well because of those consecutive losses, I rest for a while in betting for the WNBA sure will make a bet for tomorrow's games for sure but right now I also want a breather, and seeing your bets for today's game it is also not looking good for you as another upset for the Atlanta Dream and the Connecticut Sun has been strike you so sorry for your lost, and as you have said all we can do now is just move-on because that is what we can do right now,



News for you guys I have seen some major Issues in the WNBA it was Liz Cambage's altercation with the Nigeria Team it was all racist and had some physical altercation on Liz Cambage's side making racist harsh comments allegedly she was saying that the Nigerian players was monkeys and they should return to their 3rd world country, and dropping elbows and slapping the face this was all caught on video that is why a Nigerian player had enough and rush on Cambage to punch her on the face, here is the video and surely some explanation on what had happened in the following altercation, well for sure we all now know why her country Australia hates her, to the point that they don't want Liz Cambage to be called an Australian,

Thanks for the back up and good job.  Looks like everybody is slowly taking over, I might run out of anything to do for our little thread soon.  Cheesy  Just kidding.  I really appreciate the regs pitching in.  And just like in football, I'm slowly seeing the transition in many of you...  From knowing very little, to having a decent amount of knowledge and having better takes and bets than me.  It's really good to see tbh.

Now...  If it's not much of a hassle I'd like you guys to see another thing that you could get into...  Starcraft/Broodwar betting.  Wink

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5462923.0

It's really fun.  Just try to watch a few games.

Anyway, last call for jeremypwr's Multi Master.

UFC on ESPN 51 - Multi Master Challenge
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5462536.0

Thanks, likely I really want to share the weigh-in results for sure and it was really fun watching the weigh-ins and the face-off, I could clearly see who is the bigger and tougher fighter with all the fights, and for sure my transition from being a total noob to slightly gaining some knowledge is because of the help I get from all of you in this thread, I surely love to watch and analyze the fights and will likely love to help in any way I can,

Well, I really don't know the newer version of Starcraft but the old version I can surely relate a little, because I am really not a gamer, but there is surely some in me that is just hidden and maybe I will look for it later,

Now here are my prediction and bets for the upcoming fights for the UFC that will start in a couple of hours,

Vicente Luque (1.98) VS Rafael dos Anjos (1.84)

In this fight, Vicente Luque has overcome a Brain hemorrhage from his recent fight against Geoff Neal on August 2022, but his doctor has called it clear, I am still doubting if he 100% don't have any problem at all, or if that brain hemorrhage could likely have some effects on his performance we will surely see in this fight, but for me, I am for Rafael dos Anjos here and likely he can control Luque with the wrestling game so my pick is RDA,



Cub Swanson (2.85) VS Hakeem Dawodu (1.43)

For sure Cub Swanson is really old now but likely he still wants to fight for sure but you can notice in his movements that there is something about him a tendency of slowing down, while Hakeem Dawodu still has a chance to improve in his future fights for me Hakeem Dawodu will have an advantage in some fields over Cub Swanson that is for sure, so my take my pick is Hakeem Dawodu,



Khalil Rountree (1.55) VS Chris Daukaus (2.48)

In this fight, Chris Daukaus is from the Heavyweight going from the Light Heavyweight for sure he is leaping in with some advantage on his side, but I am doubting this because there are a lot of Lightweights that are very fast in moving and Chris Daukaus will surely need to cut weight in order to go down this division, but Khalil Rountree, in my opinion, can hit like a truck and this likely Chris Daukaus lost again, so my pick is Khalil Rountree,


507  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 WNBA Discussion and Betting on: August 12, 2023, 03:01:14 PM
Surprise, surprise. Did we all just lose out bets?  Cheesy
Somehow it didn't make me sad because we are all in this together.

Atlanta Dream lost by a point against Seattle Storm.

Phoenix Mercury won by 6 points against the Connecticut Sun which is damn shocking. I didn't expect that. I thought the spreads won't be covered but losing is not part of what I imagined. Brittney Griner really did some special performance there. 21 points and 10 rebounds and stopping everyone who will get inside the paint.
DeWanna Bonner did not return due to a back injury. I hope she is okay.

And Minnesota Lynx was defeated by Indiana Fever in a blowout. That's one heck of an upset day. Lucky are those who bet for the underdogs.

All 3 games were really close, and all of my bets were just like you guys on yesterday's game lost it was a horrible loss I really don't want to show the result but I have seen many of you guys already shared your so it is OK if I don't show mine because it was really terrible, but likely it surely is happening but on all of us, was really amazing, I haven't played any WNBA bet for this day, maybe I will try my luck on the tomorrow games later,

^Truly. It became a hilarious scene when I saw your picks too. I didn't even feel the rage of losing my money.  Grin

Anyway, today I missed one of the games. When I opened my computer I saw New York Liberty against Chicago Sky already in the 4th quarter with just 2 minutes remaining. I didn't even bother to take a bet because the spread was like -21.5 so I just left it there. Thankfully I ignored it and avoided a loss. Libert won by 16 points in a blowout game.

But I did bet for the other game only to lose.  Cheesy I still didn't escape the inevitable.

I was a fool to believe that the Washington Mystics could get close against the Las Vegas Aces. A very bad mistake that I made 15 minutes before the game started.
A'ja Wilson is a monster. 40 points and 12 rebounds. A career-high record and might be her best performance of this season. Damn, she must've felt good before and after the game.

Dang! Another loss for you after that 3 consecutive losses I get I take a breather and do not bet for games today but likely be returning for tomorrow's games just to bounce back again on the last one that I attain yesterday, we got 2 games for tomorrow and for me it is an easy cash in with that 1 bet, but with the other bet it could get ugly again, but will try my luck later,

With all the talk of Nate Diaz wanting to fight Jake Paul MMA style no wonder he says PFL is where he would like to do it.
From all this talk from UFC ceo Dana White refusing to pay Wonderboy anything for his gym time and preparation for that fight with Michel Pereira last UFC event where it was not Thompson's fault at all.

Dana White refuses Wonderboy's money for UFC 291
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_Dv48We9wk

Watched the interview after the Contender series and it is here in it's entirety.
Dana's Interview on Jake Paul vs Nate Diaz: "Nate Diaz fared the best against Jake Paul so far"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XoHz8kPZfl8

And of course Ariel Helwani had his say about what Dana had to say since they are rivals and he has placed himself in a good position being a promoter and commentator of DAZN for Jake Paul from the last fight.
Ariel Helwani Reacts to Dana White's Comments on 'Wonderboy' Pay | The MMA Hour
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3JkBV9cab2I

With all that is happening with the UFC, they likely don't demand something from Dana White, if the Promotion is on UFC then Dana White will surely be in control of everybody's pay, that is for sure if you compare it to PFL the recent Francis Ngannou deal, I really think Nate Diaz is thinking the same as Ngannou, an MMA fight but a bigger deal of salary, for sure if Dana White would know about this he will surely be pissed off about Nate Diaz, after talking that Nate Diaz misses UFC then he and Jake Paul will be going to the PFL that is a kick on the gut on Dana White for sure,

Well about Wonderboy's problem, Dana White is clear that if Stephen Tompson doesn't fight he still doesn't get paid, even if he shows up in the fight but UFC will offer another fight for him and still decided not to fight he is still not getting the pay he deserve a last-minute fight that surely is something that Stephen Thompson doesn't want, for sure he is pissed maybe he reads the contract and it says that if he shows on the fight and his opponent doesn't he will still get paid, well I really don't know what is in the contract but Wonderboy is really frustrated about it or the contract get revised that day? surely it is UFC is making an alibi just because they don't pay Thompson, or it is on the contract that Wonderboy doesn't understand, either way, let's just wait for what has happened,





Dana White will not be happy in seeing this he has expected Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg will give him authority in promoting their fight, but surely as a Billionaire you certainly don't need the help of others in whatever big spectacle that you want, and yeah Elon Musk wants a venue in Ancient Rome  and he has talked to the prime minister and the minister of culture to worked together for this fight to choose an epic location this is surely managed by Musk and Zucky's people to work out so no need for other fight promotions help, well Elon Musk have just tweeted the place, but there is no given time, date, and location in Rome some says that it would be epic if they would fight in the Colosseum in Rome that could be epic for sure,
509  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: August 11, 2023, 10:55:42 PM

That actually might make sense. After a loss to Jake Paul, Nate Diaz is now on hype and Dana White said that he is glad with Nate performance. With promotion voodoo, Conor and Diaz 3 fight can make good ticket and ppv sales. Welterweight is good division for Nate that gained for Jake Paul fight, and for steroid Conor Cheesy Conor has good chances to beat Nate and retire finally. The bad thing is, it is not clear with Conor, USADA and Conor's constantly changeable decision to fight Chandler, Gaethje or someone else.

Lol, merit to a person who will guess the fighters Cheesy


Well, Conor McGregor can surely make his way in the exhibition matches if he can fight in the official fights because when his fans see that video his marketing value will surely drop, so making him fight now is certainly a great idea before his marketing value drop, and surely Conor McGregor has a tendency of dropping that when people learn of what he did,

Who is that clown?

^  I'm not saying that they're gonna win for sure.  Just saying that the line is moving too much to the favorites and it's giving the underdogs more value making some of them +EV.  The favorites shouldn't really that big of a favorite.  They're not like Volk or Makachev that you know even if you bet big even at 3 to 1 there's a more than likely chance that they'll look like 10 to 1 favorites.

Weigh ins are gonna be live in around three hours or so.

UFC on ESPN 51:  Official Weigh In
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIVMAcfoQeY

This makes sense surely I really need to be more careful not to bet for those underdogs but those juicy odds are really tempting sometimes that you likely want to make a risk over it, but I don't really know most of those fighters so I can not tell for sure on who will surely win, so making my researched right now,

Whoa! Weigh-in looks stunning and it was settled then this is the result of the weigh-in but here are the results,

Main Card (ESPN+ at 7 p.m. ET)

Vicente Luque (170.5) vs. Rafael dos Anjos (171)

Polyana Viana (116) vs. Iasmin Lucindo (116)
AJ Dobson (185.5) vs. Tafon Nchukwi (189.5) - Tafon Nchukwi missed weight,
Josh Fremd (189) vs. Jamie Pickett (186) - Josh Fremd missed weight

Preliminaries (ESPN+ at 4 p.m. ET)

JP Buys (136) vs. Marcus McGhee (136)
Terrance McKinney (156) vs. Mike Breeden (156)

Conor McGregor is proposed to fight the right opponent in Michael Chandler as he is also on a loosing streak and the only win he has is against a wearing down Tony Ferguson and so is the reason he picked that fight against Chandler and then we might see the trilogy between Nate Diaz and Conor McGregor and both of these fights will sell massively and then he will retire for good.

If he passed USADA that is then these two will likely clash, it is already hinted in The Ultimate Fighter: Team McGregor vs. Team Chandler that after that they will surely fight and for sure that would pile up big money for both fighters for sure, but in the recent news Conor McGregor says that he is still in for the Michael Chandler fight if the UFC offers it but sadly the UFC is looking for other option if McGregor can not go up clean, https://www.mmafighting.com/2023/8/8/23824254/conor-mcgregor-still-in-for-michael-chandler-fight-if-the-ufc-offers-it-dont-think-they-want-him

It's important to remember that all videos like that are meant with the sole intention of getting as many views as possible, so they're not necessarily objective and it's possible that he'll manage to get back in shape (even if he indeed used steroids and let himself go in alcohol/drugs use). That's why it would be good to see any recent, proper training or sparring, as you can't fake those.
I feel bad for Chandler right now. He was promised the big money fight that he wanted, but if McGregor keeps stalling and delaying, he might end up wasting a lot of time and miss out on other potential fights.


Conor McGregor would just need to come clean with his recent USADA test and maybe get that videos on that he is really training but the damage to himself with those self-medicating drugs that likely make him recover fast is surely not good and likely cheating if he is using those kinds of things after seeing everything I really want to see those two fight for sure but likely Conor McGregor may not come back for a long time again,

Truly a sad story for Michael Chandler expecting high pay for their special fight, but maybe turn the direction like Nate Diaz did and challenge Jake Paul then he could live up good for a while,
511  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sportsbet.io Betting discussion thread rev on: August 10, 2023, 11:21:39 PM
My picks for the WNBA games and the 1st game are now already starting,

Indiana Fever (2.09) VS Minnesota Lynx (1.66)

The game will commence at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, the home of Indiana Fever, and right now Indiana Fever doesn't have any injuries, while Natalie Achonwa has a personal problem, and Dorka Juhasz has a hamstring and both can not play for the Minnesota Lynx, for this game, it was really easy for me to go for the Indiana Fever because even with their injury and the Fever has a 100% players that injury from the Lynx wasn't their key injured players, so my pick is the Minnesota Lynx



Seattle Storm (2.70) VS Atlanta Dream (1.40)

The game will commence at Climate Pledge Arena, the home of the Seattle Storm, and right now Gabby Williams has a foot injury and is out for this season, while Atlanta Dream doesn't have any injuries, so for this game, it is really good that the Dream doesn't have injuries you can see that they are in their 100% form, so for this game going with the favorite to win, my pick is the Atlanta Dream,



Phoenix Mercury (3.60) VS Connecticut Sun (1.25)

The game will commence at Footprint Center, the home of the Phoenix Mercury, and right now Skylar Diggins-Smith has a personal problem and Shey Peddy has a concussion and both are out from the Phoenix Mercury and unable to play, while Brionna Jones has an Achilles injury and is now out for this season, for this game without much injury and because of the domination on most of their game, and Mercury doesn't have any winnings against them my pick is the Connecticut Sun,


512  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 WNBA Discussion and Betting on: August 10, 2023, 10:22:13 PM
Tomorrow guys, we have a lot of games. 3 games to be exact.

Indiana Fever - Minnesota Lynx - Minnesota Lynx (-3.5) I am liking the low handicap only. Lynx ain't super strong but Fever in their 3rd losing streak and bet it will continue.

Seattle Storm - Atlanta Dream - Atlanta Dream (-5.5) Same incident as my first pick. Storm just recently lost their game and the Atlanta Dream is trying to build the momentum again.

Phoenix Mercury - Connecticut Sun - Connecticut Sun (-8.5) I like how Connecticut is still underrated and this team had never let me down yet whenever I bet for them. Like my four-leaf clover. I hope the streak of siding with them continues.
-8.5 should be enough to be covered. Mercury had their surprising wins but I doubt they can do it against the Sun.

Good luck to everyone.

Nice! We got 3 games and I think it is safer to go with the favorite to win right now that pick you got is the same pick I bet on so here are my bet and prediction for WNBA games today,

Indiana Fever (2.09) VS Minnesota Lynx (1.66)

The game will commence at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, the home of Indiana Fever, and right now Indiana Fever doesn't have any injuries, while Natalie Achonwa has a personal problem, and Dorka Juhasz has a hamstring and both can not play for the Minnesota Lynx, for this game, it was really easy for me to go for the Indiana Fever because even with their injury and the Fever has a 100% players that injury from the Lynx wasn't their key injured players, so my pick is the Minnesota Lynx



Seattle Storm (2.70) VS Atlanta Dream (1.40)

The game will commence at Climate Pledge Arena, the home of the Seattle Storm, and right now Gabby Williams has a foot injury and is out for this season, while Atlanta Dream doesn't have any injuries, so for this game, it is really good that the Dream doesn't have injuries you can see that they are in their 100% form, so for this game going with the favorite to win, my pick is the Atlanta Dream,



Phoenix Mercury (3.60) VS Connecticut Sun (1.25)

The game will commence at Footprint Center, the home of the Phoenix Mercury, and right now Skylar Diggins-Smith has a personal problem and Shey Peddy has a concussion and both are out from the Phoenix Mercury and unable to play, while Brionna Jones has an Achilles injury and is now out for this season, for this game without much injury and because of the domination on most of their game, and Mercury doesn't have any winnings against them my pick is the Connecticut Sun,




513  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 WNBA Discussion and Betting on: August 09, 2023, 07:40:05 PM
Here are the results for my picks I got 3 out of 5 on this bet,

Seattle Storm (3.60) VS Connecticut Sun (1.28) - WIN

It was good that I got the early game on the Storm VS Sun match, it was a one-sided game I thought that the Seattle Storm could connect to their inner scoring but the Connecticut Sun had a lot of answers that led the game into a dominant win, it was Ezi Magbegor, Jewell Loyd, and Sami Whitcomb that was keeping the team alive but it was not enough as the Connecticut Sun DeWanna Bonner was on the go for victory,



Indiana Fever (1.83) VS LA Sparks (1.87) - WIN

The Indiana Fever was really winning this game at the start I thought that I would lose this match but the LA Sparks made a comeback and remarkably they won the match by turning the table on the Fever, it was Layshia Clarendon and Nneka Ogwumike's efforts in making this happen,



Dallas Wings (3.90) VS Las Vegas Aces (1.21) - WIN

It pretty like the Dallas Wings are no match for the Las Vegas Aces, they are surely not prepared for this kind of beating sure the defending  champion is really this good Chelsea Gray, Jackie Young, Kelsey Plum, and A'ja Wilson have done a remarkable job in getting this done,



Chicago Sky (1.57) VS Minnesota Lynx (2.26) - LOST

A close game indeed, and the Chicago Sky surely have an opening here but still, the Minnesota Lynx surely can not be underestimated they did a remarkable job in getting this win and it was a solid win on that, Diamond Miller has kept the ball for the Lynx and got 11 rebounds in this game, Jessica Shepard and Napheesa Collier were the two players that have surely done it in making this win,



Phoenix Mercury (1.66) VS Washington Mystics (2.10) - LOST

The Phoenix Mercury has done a remarkable play of getting that win from start to finish they keep the lead and made a great spread for this game, Sophia Cunningham, Diana Taurasi, and Moriah Jefferson have kept the spread in winning this game,

No huge names for UFC Fight Night Luque vs Dos Anjos, but I think we are going to see a lot of interesting fights.
There is a huge weight difference between Khalil Rountree and Chris Daukaus, so Daukaus had to cut a lot of weight to get in light heavyweight division.
He has a small reach advantage but I am not sure how he is going to perform after weight cut, and I will wait to see weight-ins.

Guys dont forget to make your predictions for upcoming UFC event and win great rewards from Sportsbet Multi Master Challenge:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5462536.0

We got a dried-up event this week, but next week will be very juicy again this August 19, as we approached UFC 292 Sterling VS O'Malley as Aljamain Sterling has recently had a fight with Henry Cejudo 2 months from now that was May 6, for sure a lot of names in this event are really tasty but surely it is just too early to talk about it so we just need to endure the UFC Fight Night: Luque vs. Dos Anjos,

He might post million videos of him training, but until he signs agreement to pass USADA tests, I wont consider him to be preparing seriously for something. He might post whatever he wants (Gaethje recently posted that is ready to fight Conor and all Conor should is to sign a contract, to which Conor replied in his tweet "signed"), say what ever he wants. But until he is not passing tests, he is out of fighting business. I even think he is no longer interested in fighting, but only keep his body sporty and image of a fighter, but is more interested in business.

For sure Conor McGregor is just hyping his fans into his return to the Octagon and for him to be relevant again in the MMA community which for me is all just a delusion for Conor McGregor if he is using bad Substances sure he would not get that fight and for sure can not return back into fighting, without a negative result then there is no fight for Conor McGregor,


Dunno..  I mean yeah it could be a banger of a main event but both of them have prolly reached their highest potential ceiling in the UFC.  I'd be really surprised if one of them gets a title shot from here on out.  I think RDA could retire in a couple of years, Luque not long after that if the head injury he got in the match up with Neal becomes a recurring thing.

Come to think of it, most of the match ups look like the losers are getting the sack.

This is just what I think, but for sure they already have passed their potential, but still, maybe they have maintained their speed and agility maybe this could be a great fun fight to watch but if they have already reached their potential then time is up to essence and they need to do something to get that title shot that they want and need, for sure time is running out for them,

My bet and prediction for the game today and the Seattle Storm VS Connecticut Sun was an early game,

Seattle Storm (3.60) VS Connecticut Sun (1.28)

The game will commence at Climate Pledge Arena, the home court of Seattle Storm, for this game The Seattle Storm doesn't have any injuries while Brionna Jones is out for this season has an Achilles injury, and Bernadett Hatar has a knee injury and yes they can not play for this game for sure, well the game might have ended upon posting this one and for sure because of their good quality in winning their matches mostly my bet is for the Connecticut Sun,



Indiana Fever (1.83) VS LA Sparks (1.87)

The game will commence at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, the home for Indiana Fever, right now NaLyssa Smith has a foot injury and she is questionable if she can play while Katie Lou Samuelson has a personal problem and is out for this season, Nia Clouden has a knee injury, Chiney Ogwumike has a foot injury and Lexie Brown has an Illness and all can not play for the Los Angeles Sparks, but for this game for me the Spark has tremendous winning than with the Indiana Fever and with that kind of injury the Sparks can manage their play with the enough spread they need so my pick is for the LA Sparks,



Dallas Wings (3.90) VS Las Vegas Aces (1.21)

The game will commence at College Park Center, home for Dallas Wings, right now Diamond DeShields has a knee injury, Lou Lopez Senechal has a knee injury as well, and Awak Kuier has an ankle injury, all 3 can not play for the Dallas Wings, while Candace Parker has an ankle injury, and Riquna Williams was suspended and both can not play for the Las Vegas Aces, for me even without Candace Parker the team is still strong so my pick is the Las Vegas Aces, so my pick is the Las Vegas Aces,
 


Chicago Sky (1.57) VS Minnesota Lynx (2.26)

The game will commence at Wintrust Arena, home for the Chicago Sky, right now Isabelle Harrison has a knee injury and Rebekah Gardner has a foot injury and both players are out of this season, Ruthy Hebard is suspended and may able to play on Friday but not today, and Sika Kone has a personal problem and is questionable if he can play for the Chicago Sky while Natalie Achonwa has a personal problem, Rachel Banham has a thumb injury and both can not play for the Lynx, and Dorka Juhasz has a hamstring injury and is questionable if he can play for the Minnesota Lynx, for this game because the Chicago Sky is doing their best as so far my pick is the Chicago Sky,



Phoenix Mercury (1.66) VS Washington Mystics (2.10)

The game will commence at Footprint Center, home for the Phoenix Mercury, right now Skylar Diggins-Smith has a personal problem, Shey Peddy has a Concussion and both can not play for the Phoenix Mercury while Ariel Atkins has an ankle, Elena Delle Donne has an ankle, Kristi Toliver has a foot injury and Shakira Austin has a hip injury and all can not play for the Washington Mystics for sure those injured will be returning on Mid August, for this game my pick will be for the Washington Mystics

^  We'll see how it goes...  But the way I look at it is Luque has 5 rounds to find thar chin like how Fiziev did it, unless he gasses out or something.  To stay away from Luque's powerrr, RDA could go for a wrestling heavy game plan but to the detriment of his cardio.  He's getting up there in age near his 40's.  :/  Same with the co main event with Cub Swanson.  It's hard to bet on the guy even at tempting odds.

UFC Free Fight:  Dos Anjos vs Barbarena
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8O4l7WmVve4

^  Don't be sucked in into thinking that RDA could sub Luque like he did Barbarena.  Luque has opportunistic grappling too.

This is one of the interesting fights for sure both are very prominent with their submissions and well-versed at grappling but let's see which of the two has the most effective and has the high caliber wrestling, grappling, and submission game of the two, that is why this is really an interesting fight,


Did he post any vids in which he throws any fast and complex combinations (other than classic one-twos)? That'd be a good showcase of his real form.
I have to admit, I kind of wrote him off in my mind after seeing videos like this one:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_HoqOuLR30 and after pretty much every commentator in the industry agreeing that he was likely on steroids.
And to be fair, it made sense for him to try his luck with HGH (human growth hormone) to speed up the broken leg recovery, but that could have backfired with an unintentional side-effects.


After watching your video I was also convinced that this is not the same Conor McGregor, well after announcing that he will return I notice that he is getting fat, but I surely ignored it, well 1st I really don't like the guy, but I like his style in fighting, but after seeing your video it really makes sense that this is not the same Conor McGregor that many fans know and love, surely drugs and some illegal medicine is bad for everybody and surely before taking that fight with Chandler he should take a rehab 1st and come clean,

^Sadly, that didn't win @owengtam09. Seattle Storm has Jewell Loyd to pump up their team creating 32 points to help win the Storm against the Phoenix Mercury. Diana Taurasi and Brittney Griner did their best but it's not enough to create a miracle at their home game.

4 games tomorrow and I am kind of excited. Why? New York Liberty will be up against the Las Vegas Aces. This is one of the battles that I had been waiting for. Two strong teams will clash and show who is stronger. Both teams are also at the top of their conferences.
But I am kind of biased here being a fan of Breanna Stewart so I will take the Liberty for my bet but it's not a recommended one due to the emotion being part of the choice.  Cheesy

No handicap.
New York Liberty - Las Vegas Aces - New York Liberty ML @2.60

Here are my other picks.
Atlanta Dream - Indiana Fever - Atlanta Dream (-7.5)
Washington Mystics - L.A. Sparks - Washington Mystics (-3.5)
Dallas Wings - Chicago Sky - Chicago Sky (8.5)

Good luck everyone.

It was a sure bummer but it was a close match after all Diana Taurasi is not being consistent anymore and right now Brittney Griner had played but it was no used, even with Sophie Cunningham and Megan Gustafson's support it was not enough to the might that Jewell Loyd has shown 32 points is really amazing surely enough in winning this game

we surely have 4 games now but I run out of balance so will get back my balance fill up again,



Anyway here are the result of that gruesome loss, I had

Phoenix Mercury (1.59) VS Seattle Storm (2.23) - LOST

It was a neck-to-neck match and in the 1st haft the Phoenix Mercury was really winning until Jewell Loyd happen he sprung up and goes on berserk form and have the Phoenix Mercury a hard time in the 2nd half, but I think when this is a world record to break Diana Taurasi but this is going to be a win for the Seattle Storm, and that lucky 3 pointers from Sami Whitcomb, she got 14 points for this game Gabby Williams got 14 as well, Ezi Magbegor got 19 points and Jewell Loyd with a stunning performance of 32 points,

Now the result of my bets for the UFC Fight Night: Sandhagen vs. Font

Cory Sandhagen (1.28) vs Rob Font (3.75) - WIN

Cory Sandhagen was dominating Rob Font in this fight but it also looks very boring for the fans because while he was on top of Rob Font he didn't do much, and all the time the fight was a scramble on the ground and nothing much that is why they say it was a boring fight to watch, and at the end of the match Rob Font corner have said to Font that he was down 4 rounds and Sandhagen is winning so he needs to finish this on the 5th round by knockout but as the fight started Rob Font immediately shoots a takedown that Immediately Cory Sandhagen intercepted, I really don't know if Font still has his fight IQ intact or he was not thinking at all,



Dustin Jacoby (2.29) vs Kennedy Nzechukwu (1.63) - LOST

Dustin Jacoby still has the chin and durability to withstand Kennedy Nzechukwu's punch but surely Jacoby really is technical in this situation and his kicks were so brutal for Kennedy Nzechukwu but because Kennedy just kept on brawling with Jacoby he was shot by that surprise punch of Jacoby, it was really a close match for me but surely Kennedy Nzechukwu keeps on going with the flow of the match, that I lost this one,



Diego Lopes (2.39) vs Gavin Tucker (1.58) - WIN

That was really surprising for Diego Lopes in reversing that supposedly takedown and getting that triangle armbar surely both have their ground game but Diego Lopes has the submission knowledge in taking those submissions in a more unusual way just like what Paddy Pimblett is doing but in Diego Lopes case it was a masterclass when he did it,



519  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UFC Fight Night & Main Event: Sportsbet.io Predictions & discussion on: August 06, 2023, 11:27:55 AM
@owengtam09 & @jakelyson Fully agree with your predictions after watching their past bouts for each fighter just for reference. Of course this doesn't mean much since some fighters have not fought in several months.
So certainly their fighting techniques have either improved or depleted with age.
You really can't go from those fights but they are entertaining to watch right before a new card happens.

I will also predict that Jessica Andrade will lose her bout against Tatiana Suarez. Even with being away from the octagon since February if she can get it down to the ground with her wrestling style she will dominate the fight and win it easily.

@YuginKadoya I like the picks you have except for the very last one being Dustin Jacoby beating Kennedy Nzechukwu.
Kennedy has strong kicks as well and really tough legs so even if Jacoby has those powerful kicks, I can't see them affecting him too much in this bout. Nzechukwu will certainly get the win there.

Here are the markets and the odds for each of these matches with the very first bout starting in about half an hour:
https://sportsbet.io/sports/mma/ufc/ufc-fight-night-sandhagen-vs-nurmagomedov/matches

Pretty much we will certainly do anything in our power to predict this correctly, well, certainly there are surely some hindrances because we can not see the fighters' whole training and how much they improve this is the certain prediction we are making if a fighter could adjust to certain situations or not, but for sure with this limited information we just got to get it done, well it was great but 1 lost 1 bet and that is the Dustin Jacoby VS Kennedy Nzechukwu fight well it is really unpredictable but surely we saw potential with Kennedy Nzechukwu but Dustin Jacoby is that good,

Now the result of my bets for the UFC Fight Night: Sandhagen vs. Font

Cory Sandhagen (1.28) vs Rob Font (3.75) - WIN


Cory Sandhagen was dominating Rob Font in this fight but it also looks very boring for the fans because while he was on top of Rob Font he didn't do much, and all the time the fight was a scramble on the ground and nothing much that is why they say it was a boring fight to watch, and at the end of the match Rob Font corner have said to Font that he was down 4 rounds and Sandhagen is winning so he needs to finish this on the 5th round by knockout but as the fight started Rob Font immediately shoots a takedown that Immediately Cory Sandhagen intercepted, I really don't know if Font still has his fight IQ intact or he was not thinking at all,

Congrats to the 3 out of 4 win and so here are my bet and prediction for the 1 game we have today

Phoenix Mercury (1.59) VS Seattle Storm (2.23)

This game will commence at Footprint Center, home of the Phoenix Mercury, for this game, Skylar Diggins-Smith has a personal problem, and Brittney Griner also has a personal problem but right now Griner is questionable if he can play for this game, while Seattle Storm doesn't have any injuries for this game right now for this game this is going to be a close game for sure, but because of the recent game of the Phoenix Mercury and the latest performance of Diana Taurasi this game is really shaken off that the odds have given to the Mercury for this game and so my pick for this game is the Phoenix Mercury,
