Anyone here already pull the trigger on Manny? hehehehe



I don't think it will get any higher than the current odds though, so I decided to put my bet on him and just wait for the actual fight. Goodluck to those early bettors though, ML is really very attractive, so it's better to bet early.



I guess my bet will be voided now, Spence withdraw from the fight because of retina tear in his left eye.

Lucky Yordenis Ugas, he was supposed to fight the brother of Marcos Maidana as co-main event, but now he is elevated to fight Manny Pacquiao.

Spence will have a full operation in Wednesday, they have to hurry and to fix it through surgery, he is still young so no doubt that he will recover. But not sure if he can still have a crack against Manny in the future.

Edit: It has been voided, for those who haven't seen or has not experience a bet being voided, here are the images:

i am new in crypto world and i don't have much information about altcoins and gem hidden coins can any one tell me the difference between altcoins and gem coins and how can i find the real coin for investment?

Gem coins are altcoins as well, what they mean by gems coins is that it is somewhat hidden and no hype but the price usually is being pump hard, or at least it has steady climb in the market. It's hard to find that one because it's really hard to spot, there are couple of bench marks though, like the people behind the projects, the uniqueness or what it can offer to the crypto space, number of total tokens in circulation, the less the better as the price could really go high base on supply and the demand.

5624  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bullish News!!! on: August 10, 2021, 11:32:49 AM
Now I get the idea why we're seeing a huge pump today. Yeah, the news was literally bullish and it had reflected already to the market. More adoption means that there's going to be a higher demand.

People are too quick to forget that there's a supply limit of bitcoin and that's why if there's adoption that's going to keep coming for bitcoin, we're really going to see it skyrocket more soon.

I think it had nothing to do with it though. This is just the 3rd weekend in a row that pumping prices came,,, and Monday a bit of a dump, so this is the socalled cycles of attempts before the new ATH is ready:)

Of course,,, I do not mind a bit of good news but we have to accept nothing can change this move forward. Not good news, not bad news. Here we go!
Yes, moon boys are back in action.  Tongue

These cycles are showing that we're really going to be there again on $50k anytime soon. Just as what we saw how it's quick from $29k up to almost doubled with a short time frame.

News are indicators but sometimes they're discouraging the market whenever the news are not that really good.

its  climbing 56,000 now as i speak and the graphs showing how strong this trend is so basically 50k is an easy target for now.

but what we are seeking is at least going back to 60k to see if the sign is correct that we are going to another ATH before this year ends or at least making it high to 100k .

though we must consider the risk because there are still opportunity that manipulation is behind this climb now.

You mean $46k? Yeah, see the price already touching that levels, I was a bit skeptic though that we are going to reach it this month and we still have three weeks to accomplished more, and bitcoin has proven that my prediction is wrong again, hehehe. Nevertheless, we love what we are seeing right now, the price could really reach $50k at the end of the month (which I initially doubt). So let's see how it will pan out in the next three years.

^^ If this is the case then he probably contact Binance and provide all the needed information. Unless the scammer has move it out of his Binance wallet and transfer it again, then all is lost for the OP.

Sorry to hear that, but it seems it can't be recover, check your machine for malware or something or better to re-format it because the scammer was able to get your private key. And let this be a lesson, I know it's very expensive lesson to learn, but it is what it is.

He is still young that time, at 27 years old now, if he can sign with the Celtics, he will be 29 years old after 2 years and a player is still at prime that time. Let's just hope that not only he will play an impressive seasons but he also need to be health,

Schroder at Celtics will be an orb-effect lol (Dota terms).

Basically, with Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown as the leaders there, I hope he will cooperate. Remember that in Lakers, even Lebron James and Anthony Davis was there, he feels he can do anything. That mindset leads him to take down the Laker's superb offers on which is not a good idea.

He thought his value isn't worth $20M per year and basically want more money. Take note, he's not even an All-Star but still expecting some teams can offer more.

Yeah, it seems that Dennis has some attitude to say the least to turn down the offer from Lakers, or he doesn't really wanted to play with Lebron or AD.

But he will end up the in the same category with the Boston because they have their established stars and leaders in Tatum and Brown so I do hope that he won't be bringing that kind of attitude in the Celtics otherwise he could end up the same after one or two years with them.

Well, that's true but Tatum and Brown are not on the same level as Lebron who can demand on who's going to be his teammates and can even demand on who is going to be his coach. Maybe one of the reasons is he doesn't want to play with Bron of we called the king.

I'm not comparing either Tatum or Brown vs Lebron. What I'm saying is that he will potentially landed on a team that has a franchise player already. He will still be second or third option with the Celtics.

So how can a third option player command a $80++ M salary? Doesn't make sense, if he ended up signing $20 M or less to the Celtics then that's a huge pay cut. Then he still has to prove himself to get a good contract in the next two years. And then there is the potential to be a NBA champion that he declined as well.

5628  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: What will happen to Binance? on: August 08, 2021, 08:57:32 PM
I'm not seeing a Mt. Gox incident here, it's not comparable as we have a lot of exchanges already. And I doubt that Binance will suddenly disappear. What I don't like though is that they really gain a lot of power since their inception in 2017. And maybe that's what they are now in the hot seat with a lot of investigations from different crypto regulated bodies. But CZ is a businessman and probably just re-invent himself if the ecosystem if everything turns sour.
5629  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin August 2021 Target? on: August 08, 2021, 08:13:07 PM
All other alts have been posting huge gain as well, so it has a domino effect on the whole crypto market. But I will say that $45k will be the next target to break this August. $50k will be a stretch, it will be a hard grind, I would say. So let's see how long can this rally goes up again, the last time it was $42k, so I'm expecting at least $43k-$45k this month.
It looks like it will be more than that. I hope that 50k in August can reach a good value even if you notice the rally has started to move tonight and BTC is already $40,904 will this be a continuation in the future?

It won't be difficult in august there will be good news that bitcoin has had quite a pump and this will certainly be influenced by the ETH hardfork itself, so for me it could hit the 50k level even before the end of this month.

We did reach $45k, but it seems it didn't hold even for 4 hours as the price goes down to $43k again.

In any case, let's see if we can go to $45k and sustain, again I will be surprised to see the price reach $50k this month. But I might be wrong though, of course I wanted to see the price going strong and reaching $50k, but I'm afraid that after the FOMO we might go down hard again. So it's better a slow process this month and then we enter the last quarter with a huge rally going to the end of the year.

~snip~

Good news for us as we have a good contender next Olympics, one step at a time, next time it will be the gold Medal.

We don't need to speculate anymore, it's been answered already that he will continue his training to fight for the Olympics to come.
I did a little research and found out that the next Olympics is in 2024 and the location will be in France.

Hopefully, there's no covid-19 anymore that time or no new virus that will come out.

The current Japan Olympics is a success, but it's still good to see an Olympic where a crowd is already allowed.

Majority of them will continue with their training they have tasted the silver and bronze medal. They will aim for gold next Olympics in 2024.

Yes, or at least covid-19 has been controlled already that time and we are back to normal again. Definitely the Japan Olympics is a success as we have a lot of medals and those who won are going to be welcome as a hero in our country because of their accomplishments and makes us proud.
5631  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: August 08, 2021, 07:03:42 PM

It seems like the Lakers likes to experiment with their line up, when they won a championship, they still added more players and shifted some to other teams, now this is the biggest change of their lineup as they have a lot of additions, more veterans mean more playoffs experience, and with that, it will result to better chances of success next season.

That's normal, Lakers are a big team, they can afford to sign more players, and having Lebron in the team makes the team confident that they will again win a championship. I think they learned from their mistakes, they miss the chance for a repeat because of an injury, having more players that are capable to carry the team when one star player are injured would still make them a good contender.
They are signing short contracts for veteran players as they think chemistry won't be an issue for them.
With their experience, they could just go out individually in offense and if they miss, they will just to do better defensively which most of them are good at.
It's a good experiment but I doubt it will work with teams that has great chemistry like Bucks and Suns.
Let's analyze it maybe after 10 games. They may show worse at the first few games.

Yeah, it's early to tell about the chemistry thingy, give them some time to play with each others. We also said that to the Nets in the beginning, that KD, Irving and Harden is bad because of chemistry issue but we have been proven otherwise. I think James being the leader of the Lakers can command all this stars to work better and just aim for the goal of chasing that NBA title, specially for WB and Melo.

I have been doing some thinking lately and decide to share it share so we gambling community can contribute to it, we have all being playing gambling games both in an online casino or going to physical casino house to gamble.
So can we share with each other the best 2021 Gambling/Casino platforms with best odds?

Doesn't matter what physical or land case casino are near your place, the odds will still be the same for every slot games machine, table card games (baccarat, black jack etc), craps, roulette and other games that you will find in any physical casinos in any region.

For online though, it might be different. Some slot games are restricted to some region. But I think you can find lots of those gambling sites in this board: Gambling.

^  Yup..  50k for BTC is very possible thanks to ETH’s next huge rally due to the inflation reducing London hard fork.  Grin  If not then we’ll prolly see a decoupling with most alts rallying behind ETH.  

It’s kinda already happening.  Hours before ETH’s hard fork, BTC was going down and it was taking ETH and most alts with it.  A few minutes after ETH’s hard fork, ETH started going up and it took BTC with it.  Cheesy



You are right, we broke the $40k barrier, thanks to ETH huge rally because of the London hard fork.

All other alts have been posting huge gain as well, so it has a domino effect on the whole crypto market. But I will say that $45k will be the next target to break this August. $50k will be a stretch, it will be a hard grind, I would say.

5634  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: August 05, 2021, 05:26:31 PM
They have also Marc Gasol, another big men who has experienced as well, and a threat to the outside. He didn't get a good exposure last season, but I'm sure Vogel will insert him if needed as we have seen in the playoffs against the Suns as he hit crucial 3. They let go of Caruso, but added Ariza to play the defense for them against shooting guards of the opposing team.
Thanks for the reminder. I forgot about Marc Gasol.
So yeah, they are really filled with Giants.  Grin
In terms of speed, I think Westbrook and Schroder will be ideal for it and they were teammates, right? Did Schroder reach WB when he was still at OKC?
But the only problem is, Schroder turned down the $84M extension. Which means? He doesn't like playing with WB? Or is it Lebron?
https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/dennis-schroder-is-running-out-of-options-on-free-agent-market-after-turning-down-an-84-million-extension/
Where would this dude fall? What team does have the cap to fill for him?


He will be out with the Lakers, he was only there to prove his value and I think he will be able to land a good team. I'm not sure what teams really need a good point guard, but as of today's standard, PG is now bigger while Schroder is short, so a team would only give him a max contract if they sees him like CP3 and Trae Young.

And there's a rumor, maybe he would fit with the Knicks.
https://lakersnation.com/lakers-rumors-knicks-most-likely-to-land-dennis-schroder/2021/08/02/

Quote
The Los Angeles Lakers have a lot of moving parts in NBA free agency, with a number of their main rotation pieces being free agents this summer. The biggest name among those is point guard Dennis Schroder who refused a contract extension to experience free agency for the first time in his career.

If they like a healthy and talented Point guard, they should go with Dennis Schroder. Though I can't say that he is a superstar but I'm sure  Dennis Schroder is an underrated player. His numbers are consistent and he can provide offense for the team if needed.

https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/s/schrode01.html

With regards to the contract, not sure he will get bigger than what the Lakers had offered him.

Dennis Schroder is just looking for a bigger contract than what the Lakers is offering him, perhaps he just want to maximise his potential while he is still healthy. But obviously, LA doesn't want to provide or at least they don't have the capacity right now to offer it to Dennis because of salary cap.

Knicks already have Kemba Walker recently acquired, and they have Rose as well, if Schroder goes there, then they have a 3 guard rotation, not sure if that is a good idea. Unless. they will get Schroder and then trade him again.

It will be a good show for the finals, although France beat USA, but that doesn't mean anything.

USA has blend so well now, Booker finding his range and so is the two NBA champions, Holiday and Middleton, and of course Kevin Durant as their leader.

Good news, Carlo Paalam is underdog in sportsbook.

Check the betting odds here https://sportsbet.io/sports/event/boxing/international/olympic-tournament/paalam-carlo-yafai-galal-610ba6c257dc6c61eae9bc58



Better put your bet early guys, who knows the odds might flip.

I like the odds here, as our very own Carlo Paalam is the underdog.

Not sure why Yafai is the favourite, but in any case, his fight against Bibossinov was a classic one, if only Bibossinov  didn't gas out in the last round, he could have turn the tide and win, but it was a 3-2 win by Yafai. Paalam though is well rounded so it will be a good fight for the gold. Hopefully, Paalam will start very fast in the first 2 rounds to get the score and take a lead going into the last round.
5637  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: August 04, 2021, 05:35:13 PM
Lots of transfers and whopping extensions for their contracts that's happened recently. What you guys feel about the transfer of Caruso to Chi?

Did Lakers just lost one of their best bench?

The Lakers still have THT, they also added Kendrick Nunn (from Miami) and also Kent Bazemore (from GSW), so I think the Lakers still have some good bench players. Although Caruso really blossomed in the Lakers uniform, but it's business to he choose a more lucrative contracts with the Bulls.

Lebron + Carmelo, that will be an awesome tandem in the wing.

On their prime oh wow! that tandem is unstoppable, but for now not really sure if that still works.

Definitely, but we all know that they are contemporaries, so it's hard for them to be on the same team during their primes.

The good thing is they still have AD and Drummond plus Westbrook which will give them more explosives. everything  is on coach Vogel to handle and rotate those superstars that he have inside his roster.

With all of them healthy this coming season, chance for the title still possible. 

Drummond move to Sixers if I'm not mistaken, they acquire Howard though, but not sure if that is a one on one trade. They also beef up their second stringers, although the big question is the age of this players, majority of them are above 30's or in their mid to high 30's. Ariza, Lebron, Carmelo is like 36++ already, Howard is 35.
5638  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: London hardfork (important upgrade of Ethereum) on: August 04, 2021, 04:46:30 PM
Yes, the London hardfork which is will take place tomorrow will be necessary for the ETH v2.0 and at the same time hopefully after the successful upgrade we can already enjoy lower gas fees. Something everyone is looking forward to.

Yeah, hopefully it will solved the high gas fees that everyone is complaining, specially with the whole swapping thingy.

On the other hand, ETH should also show a nice positive sentiment, and hopefully this event will act as an instigator to new ATH???

If it works by design upon it's released, for sure it will result in a positive sentiments. And we all know that if crypto enthusiast are happy, the price are going to soar in the next couple of days after that. So let's see, it might bring Ethereum to a new all time high, and as I have said in the other threads, it could have a ripple effect to other top altcoins as well.
5639  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is this another Ethereum season on: August 04, 2021, 04:11:38 PM
As of the time of this thread creation, the Ehtereum price is $2,580, which shows a gain of 3.21%, as the Bitcoin price plumbed to $37 before recovering to above 38k at the moment. This indicates Ehtereum continued to rise in price over the last week when Bitcoin made a $42k stop.
As the Ethereum network prepare for another hard fork on the 5th of this month lots of analyse including myself think that we are heading for another ethereum bull market.

Ethereum has been in the bull run, above $2k already so it already proven itself that it can sustained its growth. And with the next hard fork, for sure the price could still pick up and go to at least $3k in my opinion. And we all know that Ethereum has a good effect, a domino one to the rest of the altcoins market. So it might not just be Ethereum, but maybe we will see a good jump in the price of the top 10 altcoin in the next coming days.
5640  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bull trap or lasting on: August 04, 2021, 03:38:24 PM
I think this is likely one last check in back with high $30,000s, and probably mostly just due to panic related to the wording of the upcoming US infrastructure bill that currently in its nonsensical language puts literally impossible regulatory requirements on lots of crypto participants.

Could be, hopefully this is the last one and then we can surge back to $40k++.

In the next week I think we'll probably see the price move back to $40k and this month Bitcoin will break out of resistance and maybe close the month around $45k. That'd be my guess.

Imminent break-out, but let's see, but the good thing is that we have showed that we can break $40k again, so that alone is a good indication. We still have a full 4 weeks ahead of us, $45k is that that far, as I have said, we've seen a jump from $29k-$42k. So possible a jump again to $40k and above this month.
