Almost a trap for that odds given to Meralco and Phoenix.
It's not almost for Meralco, it's a big trap, however, Phoenix despite losing the game but they still cover the spread.

I was just about to consider putting a bet for Phoenix (even I'm with TNT with this series) because of 2.7 odds..............

I would love to know what site you are using to get a series bet, please here share bro. Smiley

I didn't and won't bet for the series match between Phoenix and TNT. I'm just rooting for TNT to win the series.

What I prefer is to bet per game, not series. And mostly at betting sites, it's per game. Never actually seen a series bet. Others might know.

We have s series betting but in fiat sportsbook, you can find it here https://sports.msw.ph/en/sports/227-basketball

Just search PBA and you'll see all the available betting odds.

I saw the betting odds, however I'm not interested on betting outside in crypto, I don't know why our crypto sportsbook does not provide that kind of odds, more odds would make it attractive to gamblers.

Meanwhile, we have an update on Galliguez injury.

No concussion but Galliguez needs 20 stitches to close cut above eye


Quote
“I have 20 stitches of two layers under my eyelid. But the good news was that there’s no fracture,” said Galliguez, who was accompanied by Alaska’s long-time medical staff led by Dr. Facundo Sun and trainer Gus Vargas. “Everything was checked and it's OK.”

Thank God he is nothing was serious with the injury.
It was late for me to get into this discussion about Galliguez's injury but I've watched the reply of it last night. At the very first thought, it's a serious injury but that's good to know that it's not that serious at all. My dad even told that it's severe and near death, too much reaction for the my pops.  Tongue
Yes, it look so bad, I don't even look at it a lot and I decided to just wait for the report, but thank God it wasn't serious though, he is a tough man, he will be back in the next conference.


I'll be having fun betting and winning against online bookies while it's the opposite if against a countrymen in this forum.
I feel you, this is much satisfying. Still, no book yet for the first game.

Last check as of this time, still no odds yet. Will check this later tonight.
5024  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe NBA is rigged? on: November 16, 2020, 01:27:08 PM
I really can't imagine there is match fixing at this level. Those players who all earn a fortune in the NBA. then why would they participate in such a thing? keeping in mind that if anyone finds out, they could be suspended for life or at least end their career.
They are not really the one participating, it's the referees who are rigging the games, players don't know about it because they are just playing while referees are doing the calling, that's why sometimes there are bad calls and one bad all already have significant effect to the game.

If you do some backreading, you'll be able to see videos shared of refs calling and not calling foul that should be called.

They are in charge of the game, they say when the refs is with a certain team, most of the time that team will win, even how bad they are as a team.
5025  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: KUCOIN Hacked on: November 16, 2020, 11:09:59 AM
never use it..
i choose huobi because they never get hacked

Kucoin got hacked but no users are affected, all the lost money was reimbursed, that is why they are still here.

The exchange still has millions of trading volume, so they are still making millions in their operation.

as you can see https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/kucoin/.. though the volume has dropped a bit, but they still have a decent volume.

Teams are having some good rest now as the Semi Finals will start 2 days from now.
They should because they are almost exhausted for playing with short rest only.
It was the PBA's initiative they just follow the schedule.
it's a long series if it will be tight, 5 games is the max for a series and i think it could happen to TNT vs Phoenix.

If TNT wins here, who knows castro will get a championship before retiring, he was aiming for that.


Phoenix vs TNT..chances here is 40/60
Ginebra vs Bolts.. chances here is I think 70/30 or 80/20/
I like the percentage though, seems realistic, but this is a best of 5 series, I think Meralco will at least 1 game in the semi.
Thanks mate, I just want to be right as it's also the basis of betting in an individual game.


What do you think, are we going to see an upset here again by the Meralco Bolts on another SMB team?
NOPE
Good answer,... but anything is possible.  Grin

5028  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gamblers lose more money than win. on: November 16, 2020, 09:02:01 AM
I think that the study of 92% unfortunately is true.I have tried it myself.Even when I have won 2000x my initial bet which is a lot of money and should tell any gambler that now it is time to stop,I have still continued to play in hope of winning even bigger amounts which unfortunately led me into losing all the money.
I'm not sure with the exact percentage but I'm sure majority of the gamblers really loses money.

What we do is, when we win, we still come back hoping we will win more, but since they have the edge, we will lose in the long run.
Winning are mostly short term, the long term game is for them most of the time.

If we also are losing, same thing, we still come back hoping we can get back our loses, but instead of winning, we even lose more.
5029  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: November 16, 2020, 08:20:42 AM
Pre-season games will start as early as December 11, then regular games on December 22.



https://twitter.com/ShamsCharania/status/1327690899703402507

Thanks for sharing the latest update.

It's a new preseason style, we usually see our teams traveled outside the US to play with other leagues, but here it will only be inside the bubble.
Well, this is only less than a month before the preseason starts, everyone should be excited now, as betting would also start the soonest.
5030  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are there any truly safe bets in sports betting? on: November 16, 2020, 06:35:23 AM
Very  few  lucky gamblers who abled to get and win after accepting the offer.  Back  to the main  topic, sure bets are not possible  it won't  be called gambling  if it does exist.  Even you place your chances 99.99% win that remaining  .01 % can still bring shit to  your picked.

I agree that small percentage matters, sometimes when you least expect that's the time that small percentage will come. Imagine betting maxed out at 98% win and still lose. Happened to me a couple of times.

It's the same as betting in a luck based games, that's why i stay away with that high chances but low payout betting odds, it's just a waste of money and we just thought it's easy which is no challenge to us, if we really wanna test our skills, we should go with odds 1.90 above.

Sugarol naman tayo, alam na natin na existing yang bentahan na sinasabi, pero ang hindi lang natin alam ay kung anong game gagawin, so gambling pa rin, hulaan nalang natin at i enjoy nalang ang game na makikita natin.

Basta ako, mukhang Ginebra talaga mananalo ngayon dahil wala na ang rival nila na SMB at Magnolia.

Kung di Ginebra, maaring may chance rin ang Phoenix.

TNT, parang kulang pa rin talaga.
5032  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why most of us are losing money in sports betting? on: November 15, 2020, 11:50:45 PM
In my honest opinion, there are no sure tips to success when talking about gambling, this industry has the loss and the win mode, the two are inevitable. While finds yourself in the loss section, kindly retrace back your footsteps to avoid be wreck in the process, and when find more loses please kindly exit the gambling world becasue your destiny doesn't support gambling Cheesy.

Great advice  Grin
In fact, gambling should be viewed simply as entertainment. And if you spend reasonable money on this entertainment, everything will be fine. When a person crosses the line of adequacy, then problems begin. And it does not depend on the sphere in which it happens. If you spend your entire family budget on motorcycles or rare fish, the result will be no better than gambling.

If you think that gambling is a way to spend your money, then that is not good even if you are just doing it for entertainment. Gambling itself means you win or you lose, if you are just spending money, then that means you are only losing which is not fun IMO.

We need to be interested on what we are doing, whether it's fun or not, at least we challenge ourselves to try to find a way to win as that is where the real pleasure in gambling is achieved. Of course losing is possible also, it's the bad side, but you should know how to limit your bets, though you lose but it will not gonna ruin your finances.

5034  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: US Presidential Election 2020 and its impact on gambling on: November 15, 2020, 12:53:27 PM
Before becoming is the president is the speech and after becoming and realizing the various factors would be different because now directly he would be responsible if by increasing taxes the  revenue decreases and I am sceptical he would be doing so, because now after pandemic it has already effected all businesses.

Biden has proposed a huge increase in the welfare budget. So in order to fund this increase, he needs to find funds. Either he can raise the taxes, or he can borrow from various donor agencies. The second option doesn't look very attractive right now, because the federal debt is already at sky-high levels. Anymore increase in the federal debt level can cause a collapse of the economy.

Raising taxes is not gonna help, they need to attract investors so they can increase their tax revenue by not affecting the life of the small earners. When we say increase of taxes, this has a big effect to the employees as they are really the ones who are paying big money while they aren't making that big.

The quality of life will be affected if the economy is not doing well, and attracting new investors like gambling businesses is for sure a great thing to do.

Well, I just recommended it since I know how big the gambling world is and I'm a gambler who likes to see countries to be a casino friendly, besides it's a win-win situation for both.
5035  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Nordine Oubaali vs. Nonito Donaire - December 12 on: November 15, 2020, 12:39:56 PM
I understand, in gambling, we don't use our heart all the time, so even if Nonito is a Filipino fighter, not necessarily you will side on him if you see the other fighter having an advantage, nice job and good luck, it's still a long wait though.
5036  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casino workers forced into unpaid leave on: November 14, 2020, 10:42:43 PM
They should also consider their workers they are earning because of them so they should also value their workers.
We know that they could just hire a new one when someone leaves or got fired but what if most of their workers find other job because of what they've done?
And if they couldn't get new workers because of their action people would remember how easily they forced their worker into unpaid leave while we are all facing the pandemic.
^ Well, that is right.
It will reasonable for the company that will layoff some employees because the revenue of the company was perhaps down and cannot gain base on the monthly basis. It is their right to choose who will deserve to stay on their side but -- forcing them to leave without any benefits from the company is I think against any department of labor. That is a very common scenario that happened and employees should understand the situation. We know that we are still recovering from the economic crisis due to that pandemic while the pandemic was still there. Everything will be solved in a good approach that comes from the company, --if not, many of them will claim into the department of labor.

Though the company is struggling to survive but they are not closing down, layoff means they are terminating their employees and employees are entitled to receive a separation fee, while force leave, they are not, I think that's the story here.
5037  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Asking About Riobet Casino on: November 14, 2020, 10:27:02 PM
I have used this gambling site for a week and the overall impression is good. If you look for fiat gambling sites that accept cryptocurrencies too, there are many available choices on askgamblers. Fast-pay casino and Vavada are the famous Russian online casinos that accept players usually from Ukraine too. Both BTC and altcoins are widely accepted, Riobet has not asked for any personal document after deposit.
Thanks for the feedback mate, it's helpful because this is a casino that is new to us even if it has existed years already, the fact that they don't have an ANN thread here, it makes us doubtful to try the site and risk our money.


Maybe I have lost all balance, better to check the casino review website for the correct info.
What do you mean, you are not sure if you lose or win?

I hope there's someone who would also share that they have withdrawn money from the site.

Congratulations to the winners, Magnolia just can't seem to hold on their lead while Phoenix had some lucky nights especially Wright, he was the right man to give the Phoenix a win.

Meanwhile, we have an update on Galliguez injury.

5039  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: November 13, 2020, 11:38:13 PM
That's a huge leap.
PG13? Really? Clippers would want WB rather than PG13?
Just because of that 3-1 failure against the Nuggets? Damn!

I even doubt Westbrook will be interested in that. I mentioned previously that Westbrook wants the role that he is used to in his OKC days. It won't happen in LAC. If happened, he will become a playmaker (point guard) for the Clippers but their offensive phase will still be centered around Kawhi Leonard. The chemistry might not work even they will do a test for 5-10 games.

Westbrook is not fit for the Clippers, a conflict with the role of Kawhi, I'm sure about that unless either of them will give way as the main scorer. But I see Paul George will be a good addition to the Rockets. Rockets will win on that trade if ever or maybe the best way to say it is, Rockets will win on the trade no matter what as long as they trade Westbrook. Grin

Well, I think I would love this experiment though, PG did not do well with the Clippers, so looking for a replacement, I think Westbrook would fit. If they want westbrook to adjust, I think it's possible as they need only one consistent scorer and that is Kawhi Leonard, and besides, Kawhi is not a type of player who scored a consistent 30+ per game, so Westbrook would certainly help to destroy the defense of their opponent as he is known for his aggressive basketball using his athleticism.

Let's give it a try, why not?
5040  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How long until we can bet with bitcoin in real life casinos? on: November 13, 2020, 11:21:13 PM
I think Bitcoin only fits for online casinos not unless if you cash-in it for casino chips. I don’t think that real Casino gamblers will adopt Bitcoin in their gambling lifestyle due to its volatility and they might prefer to use fiat because its more stable or stable coin will do too.

They can choose bitcoin if they know how to handle its volatility, there's always a stable coin, they can convert that once they receive it.

Bitcoin gives advantage to a casinos as it will attract foreign gamblers which they don't have to convert their fiat to a local fiat which would only reduce the value, and at the same time, convenience since they don't need to bring big money while going into casino, and bitcoin doesn't need any verification when doing an online transaction, as long as the fee is right, that btc will sink into the casino's wallet immediately.
