Horrors. I missed the day you posted. But it's Friday Saturday (I really am losing my mind) and I smelled the fear earlier in a group chat, so with some leftover sentiment I browse this thread and approve of the FUD.

Simple question for me: Until the 1150 retest, which next ATH this year (!) or next would force you to redraw some lines or adjust your positioning for the mid-term? Given that you think $92k is still possible, which price is not?

^And here's one from La Liga. Mallorca surprised quite a few people by beating Atletico recently, and these guys are kind of a red card specialist, while on the opposite end we've got Aspas always capable of throwing us a few goals and corners. I have a Friday Feeling on this one!

Even I put the score 3-0 for Chelsea's victory in the Superbru tournament which was held here too, I really believe Chelsea and other big teams will get a definite win this week. Even though Manchester City will play against Wolves and Liverpool will play against Aston Villa but they are playing at home and not only that, even Manchester United will play away against Norwich which I also really believe they will all win.

And you're doing really, really, well in these pools so I should follow your lead, but I already set my picks 2 days ago and I'm not going in to change them -- because I did that the past 2 match days and became Tinkerman Ranieri, losing great picks to last-min smart aleckness.

I'd still want to bet against City though Wink The tough matches are like tonight. Watford can score now, but they're also liable to not show up.

It does, unless there it is a championship title fight on the line.
They try that much harder to try and keep that title in their possession.
So the over on round could be the play for you there.

I was going for the upset with Pena vs Nunes. But the better part of my brain went against it.
The bet for Nunes to win is just not worth it to bet on.
So the K.O might be the play for this match.
But a definitely under on rounds is a must if you plan on putting this one on your parlay for UFC 269.
I went all-in on Oliveira the champ to win this against Poirier.

I've only done one upset bet against Nunes, can't recall precisely which, but after that, read up a bit about her and her dominance, explained with science and experience. Can't beat her unless a freakish accident happens (and even then, think she went through a fight with a broken finger once and didn't say till the end).

Def not worth betting on, unless it's a tiny boost to a big parlay (which I might consider if I'm that crazy later this weekend).

Let's see if we can't get some entertainment from the highlight match anyway.

Hey Steve, and SB, thanks guys!

Definitely don't deserve it but I saw a nice fat Betbuilder freebet waiting for me -- Dumped it with Boost on a Liverpool Betbuilder against Villa (sorry Stevie G, am sure you'll put up a good fight but we're surely too much for you to overcome?). Then I saw the email. Seems like will be getting it every weekend now. Super cool. Am sure many of you also got it? =)

TNF once again, I don't like these two teams since both of them are somewhat inconsistent but i'm taking the extra points on the side of the Steelers. I'm thinking this will end in a field goal win since Steeler's usual winning margin boils down within less than 3 points. 

Yeah I'm with Steelers not just because I like these kind of teams always punching above their weight, but capable of losing spectacularly too, and I think this game they'll edge, but with a bigger margin. I'll have to start paying attention to the stats a little with all these different scoring systems but for now, still betting blind.

There's still a month left before the playoffs so if everything goes as expected on the side of Packers and Patriots then they should lock both of the playoff spots.

The only question is which seeding they'll get based on their standings.

I tend to like the lower seedings in playoffs, stats-wise they don't do well but I always feel like it's better to get the hard work done first, as in KO formats, the teams who have it "easy" en route to finals seem to let their foot off the gas when it matters.

^Indeed, it wasn't about actual BJ hits, just games on the same night that actually registered 21 points.

Apologies for bearing bad news but Napoli-Leicester was a low bust at 15... despite a 3-2 scoreline AND finishing half time at 10 points! They just decided to play for fun or something after the restart (not watching, eyes on Atalanta). The sole Champions League game is in injury time now and only 12 points too...

Lyon-Rangers: 9
Sparta Prague-Brondby: 16
Sociedad-PSV: 17
Sturm-Monaco: 16
Legia Warsaw-Spartak Moscow: 19
Fenerbache-Frankfurt: 12
Antwerp-Olympiacos: 15

Europa generally not delivering? Hope this purges all the low scores out. Heh.
5849  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: BitcoinNews.com's UEFA Champions League Football Preditor Pool Discussion thread on: December 09, 2021, 04:19:16 PM
I'm so looking forward tonight, I hope Barcelona would be able to advance through to the next round, against all Odds and for that to happen, I think it's safer to expect a win from Barcelona than to expect Benfica to slip up tonight, isn't it ?

In the end it was too much for 2 things to happen. First, for Besiktas to lose or even draw. Second, and more important, to ask Bayern to lose when they've won every game so far.

And I dropped to 4th place so no consolation for me either.

Yeah, sorry my friends. I was contemplating a Barca outright but it's really hard to see them get anything out of a stubborn Bayern -- the other team to register 6 wins in the group stage.

What's crazy now is that three tough teams wait for the next round in 2nd place (PSG, Chelsea and Atletico), so it's not out of the question that Liverpool could come up against Chelsea or even PSG -- though I fancy our chances against either!

Now tonight left to decide who's the last team to enter. Sorry Yellow Submarine, but Atalanta needs to go through to make it interesting.

As expected. And as I said those months ago, if THAT is the extent of the effect on hashrate on the China exodus, then all those qualms we've sometimes had over Bitcoin's distribution of hash power can be put to bed. If anything, that incident brought in many more new players, further diversifying miners.

And this is quite amazing. Mempool is quite clean of transactions.

We can see now using https://mempool.space/ that we can get a confirmation with just 1 sat/vbyte.

It's been for the majority of the year, actually. I've caught a few times where the fee's 3 to even 15 sats as a suggested next block confirmation, but that's usually when there's been an unusual amount of time from the last block found. A 1 sat/byte tx is all I've done all year long for non-urgent transactions and everything's in before 24 hours pass.
5851  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- Group Stage! on: December 09, 2021, 02:40:29 PM
Anyway, I thought we had hopes actually as the tide was turning but Walker got himself sent off and it's got to be over from here on...

Well, I know how that feels! In one little second, I wanted to place a bet on this game, but last time I bet on them against Crystal Palace they lost 0:2 at home, real disappointment! Also, they had that first place before this game and Leipzig needed a win for that third place and continuing in Europe League! So I skipped placing bets, and in the end, that was the right call!

Well, I actually caught that Palace win. It's kind of my thing to bet against City every time I see the odds are above 10 or even 15/1 (which was the case with Palace actually).

Last night wasn't my night either, didn't actually lose a lot but just games didn't quite turn out as I'd have hoped. Only Atalanta left tonight, but there's also not much value in that game unless you're into BTTS.
5852  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Finally Climbs Back Above $50k, but can it Remain there? on: December 09, 2021, 01:57:46 PM
Maybe the OP spoke too soon as the price goes down below $50k again after 2 days, right now it's $49,200 and I'm wondering that maybe we just saw a bull trap or the resistance is too far greater that it can't conquer it, hence there is a little sell off again and maybe try to reset everything in the next couple of days.

Not easy to speak at any time, really. Everything's just too finely poised at the moment. Too little volumes in either direction to dictate something of a weekly permanence even.

Not even enough of any inclination to say bull trap or otherwise. This is when either sub45k or post 55k is the marker for the next month's move.

Or we wait for another weekend effort.

I realise how silly even I sound trying to make sense of where we're going Wink

Rennes is now at 36/10. Well done all you who got it at super odds.
And game is posptoned. Interesting what new date of game will be because this game should be played before end of 2021 and in upcoming weeks Spurs have very intensive calendar. Fact that Spurs asked to posptone this game probably shows that this tournament matters for them. Otherwise they would agree to play with their youngsters.

Poor Spurs. Bad luck and possibly bad planning/management (the Burnley snow game that was luck, but not sure if they could have avoided the Covid thing as training is a contagion risk with positive people). The Burnley game would have relied on whether or not they would progress in FA Cup but this Conference League game throws a heavy spanner into the works.

You're right though, they do seem to want to win this -- prize money isn't too shabby actually and they have a very real chance of a trophy if they actually try to win this competition.

Really liking the vibes from the comments on both games. I also shook my ass off and took a big bet on Zenit-Chelsea and a max bet on Barca/Bayern. Typical of me when facing a losing streak (since end of Nov) to count on something out of this world, but Champs League is where the magic happens eh?

Zenit-Chelsea are already 12 points at half time though, let's hope they slow things down a bit hmm?
Edit: Gave away 6 corners in 6 minutes to bust at 22 at 74th min, Chelsea heh, I said slow down =[

5855  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NFL Sportsbet.io discussion & predications thread rev on: December 08, 2021, 06:21:47 PM
So, guys, NFL n00b here, be wary. Could someone tell me where we're at with all this playoff goings on. Just to remind myself, these were my preseason picks on outright winners:

Steelers @37.3
Dolphins @34
Patriots @34
Seahawks @25.2
Packers @14.2

According to Sportsbet.io odds right now, these are:
Steelers @91
Dolphins @251
Patriots @8
Seahawks @251
Packers @8.5

So I'm not doing too badly, then? 2 of my 5 picks are in the Top 5. But exactly how far away are we from finding out who goes through and all that? Uncle Google is confusing me.

After my MLB heartbreak with BoSox, I'd love to get some happiness from Super Bowl =)
5856  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Europa Conference League Discussion Thread on: December 08, 2021, 04:28:40 PM
So dittoup alerted me yesterday to an ongoing situation with Rennes. Apparently, the odds for them to win was almost 10/1, and then Spurs got hit with some Covid situation, taking odds down to 7/1 and below. Seems it's just gotten from bad to worse though, six players and 2 staff already positive. They're now writing to postpone Sunday's premleague game so I guess Conte will have to try and rescue their Conference season with B team? And we all know they suck badly haha.

Rennes is now at 36/10. Well done all you who got it at super odds.

Wonder if Laszlo ever gets a shiver buying pizza with Bitcoin huh?
We never know because we never meet Laszlo Grin

I am curious if Laszlo still keeps some bitcoin in his wallet or leaves bitcoin after he bought the pizza. However, his story is the greatest story that we know as he uses so much bitcoin just to buy pizza. If he keeps all of that amount and sells it right now, I am sure he can have his Pizza store in many places.

Well, I've never met virtually every single person of interest in every aspect of life Wink

He's done plenty of interviews already, and even very recently. Short summary: no he didn't really keep much, he was an early adopter, and as many of them did, dedicated their time and energy to prove Bitcoin was of value and worth exchanging for. We have them to thank for what Bitcoin is capable of today.

If there's a lesson to take from guys like him: use your Bitcoin as much as possible. Every little activity done with it strengthens its case.

I'm right down here at the bottom of this table now together with you Trofo. Halab on the top, and everyone else in between, but yeah, still another round of games tonight before the table as we know it shouldn't shift too much more once we enter KO phase.

Ruined my life with City in every single pick I made, and missed out on a big Liverpool win as all were accas. Is it too much to ask to get Barca to save me tonight?
