It was Sabalenka who won the title, surprisingly it was a back to back win for her as she was he defending champion. She finished the third set championship point with an ace. The match concluded under two hours, 6-3 3-6 6-1, her second in 2019. It was a gallant effort on the part of Riske though, she won over seeded players Svitolina and Kvitova to reach the finals but no match against Sabalenka, who made a lot of aces.

Thanks for the tip however, I agree that this is a time consuming task and you need to be on your computer, so not worth it unless in my case. Also, if you sending out transactions in and out of the exchanges, isn't it you have to pay for a gas? And then when you exchange TRX from TronLink to your Exodus Wallet, there is also a fee? So I guess you are losing some money as well and maybe not 1% in 24 hours?

Probably just another shake up and get rid of those weak hands.


Why $3,000 though? Why not $1,000 so that we can purchase more and fill our bags? Are you one of those weaker hands that we've describing? If you don't have faith or at least very nervous about the current price then why not just hold on your Bitcoin and then let this bearish cycle pass by? Opps, I spoke to soon, Bitcoin somewhat recovered to $8200 now.

I'm not surprised if Dogecoin is the 3rd most resistant to 51% attacks, it is one of the old school coins here, wherein the developer was really working hard on its design before putting the product live on the floor. Unlike today wherein the devs are just writing shitty codes just for the heck of releasing them and make money out of it. On the contrary, hackers are having a field day exploiting it and then surprise, surprise those tokens got hack, and people lost their money. If designers and coders will just be like the old school and traditional, instead of thinking of money, programmers back then think of their product first specially how secure it in to such attacks, so no surprises at least for me.

Currently we have 4 of candidates for boxing's fight of the year.

(1) Pacquiao vs Thurman
(2) Joshua vs Ruiz Jr
(3) Fury vs Wallin
(4) Fury vs Wilder

And then the potential:

(1) Alvarez vs Kovalev
(2) Inoue vs Donaire
(3) Spence vs Porter

But at this point I would say that Fury vs Wilder is a good one, back and forth fight and we don't know who really won that's why there is a rematch. Joshua vs Ruiz, on the other hand, was just a lopsided fight. FOTY should be war, like JMM vs Pacquiao, Rafa Marquez vs Israel Vasquez, Barrera vs Morales and Ward vs Gatti. Those fights are really brutal and neither fighter wanted to give an inch. I suggest those casual boxing fans here to watch some of those classic wars.

Did you try to post here?

Posting on that board will give your exposure and you could filter applicants and get the best that you think that will fit your needs. You can try Seuntjie bot as referred by @TheUltraElite and maybe plug your strategies and see how it goes for you.

True, but I guess many are still in the panic mode when they saw the price going down to $8000 and just decided to push the sell button. Crypto investments is a journey, we might see lots of ups and downs along the way, but if people are going to sell every time their is a big dip, then it's their lost.

I guess it did shake the weak hands again and it's good though, this purge causes the strong hand investors to win (again) in the end. And for those who remain, I'm sure they're taking this opportunity again and could probably wishing the price to dip more.

Thank you for the update, yes Barty lost, wasn't able to watch the match but don't you worry, I also lost some on Barty as well.

Riske upset Kvitova as well. So it looks like we will have a unseeded player winning the trophy this year.
Riske vs Kvitova 7-5, 7-5, so it is a close match as well.

I'll probably stop betting on the Riske vs Sabalenka, probably will try to observe at how this two ladies will fair in the finals.

Yeah right, utmost sensitivity my ass. They have been busted already so I don't know what changes they have to do at this point to prove that they will handle everything differently.


Their lobby will only works in US soil, how can they lobby it in Europe wherein France and Germany has taken their public distrust about Libra? Of course, they can launch it because they have all the capital in the world, but to be successful across the globe wherein there is so much disdain about the company and the product? That is another question.

At the current state of the market, if you are looking for a coin that will shoot up in prices, then you have to wait for sometime before you can see a growth. Yes, it's possible, this market is very unpredictable, we have seen coins in the past that really started slow and then gain some traction. But the question is do you have the mentality and the right attitude and have the patience to wait for let's say 2 or more years? Otherwise you will just regret when you see the coins you have invested on suddenly went on a massive growth over the course of the year. I think this is the perfect time to pick up coins, specially the top 10 or 20 altcoin and just hold on them, most of them though doesn't have low volume, but the possibility to grow is there.

That is also what the former trainer of GGG, Abel Sanchez has to say:


(https://www.boxingscene.com/abel-sanchez-canelo-stops-kovalev-around-7-9-with-body-shot--142818)

That's really Kovalev's weakness ever since, I'm not really sure if there something you can do to prepare for a body or liver shot, it's just like when boxer had a glass chin, like Amir Khan. Once it's been touch and broken, it's gone. Kovalev should be more intelligent here, use his jab and distance himself , otherwise Canelo will just target Kovalev's body and it will be painful and probably either make him quit or Canelo will knock him out with one body shot.

Asking for financial advise?

Anyways, my rule of thumb is to always buy in dips, so we have 2 massive downward target, $8500 and then $8000. So if you bought some at $8500 then definitely worth to buy more at the current price of $8000. And if the price continue to go down then still get some. That's how smart investors think and strategize. However, it is still your call though, the market is ripe for buying, and as the saying goes, buy when there's blood in the street. So if you're planning for a long term hold, then buy and take this opportunity to your advantage.

There's nothing we can do if the market continue to plummet and we go on other bearish cycle. Maybe Bakkt has nothing to do with it since we are like in the overbought region already.


Why not take the advantage by purchasing cheap Bitcoin and buy as many as you can? Instead of bitching around, do something that will be good for you in the future? And we all know that we still have the bitcoin halvening next year, an event wherein everyone is waiting and the real catalyst for the bull run. Don't stress yourself out, just look at the bright side.

She won the Pan Pacific Open last week beating Pavlyuchenkova 6-2, 6-3 and probably opted not to join this tournament.


Barty will be up against (1) Sabalenka in the semi-finals, I think Barty will have the tools to go to the finals this year.

Kvitova won against Yastremska and Riske upsets Svitolina. So it will be Kvitova vs Riske on the other bracket for the semis.

So it looks like sportsbet.io did listen to the OP and now they're live now.


Do we need a separate gambling thread for this event? Or maybe we can continue our discussions here regarding the World Athletics Championships?

Obviously, someone had answered already that US didn't banned Bitcoin or crypto in general.

Now to get their US Binance platform and to fully satisfy US regulations, they have partnered with this so called company, BAM Trading Services, it is a California based company, it is registered as a money services with US FinCen. As far as the effects, we still don't know it, it was just recently launched and remember that not all states supported Binance.US as well. I think you can't created an account if you lived in Texas and New York so that's a minus for Binance for sure. So we really can't say if it will push the price or not, but I guess the good news their market is really expanding and in the long run we might see the impact positively.

I think people in crypto are very paranoid about credibility and reputation, so I must say that they will ignore a project that will be launch on a shitty exchanges.

I think credibility or reputation is very important that's why projects being launch in top tier exchanges received so much money during their IEO launch. You just have to look at Binance launchpad, how many projects launch under them and how much money was raised so far?

Yes, there was some prediction about the 200 day EMA and some of them even predicted that the price is going down as low as ~$7000, at least the price remains stable at $8500 and trading volumes are picking up. The market just reacted to the flash crash news, and evidently some whales buy the news, dump huge amount in Bitmex. As for Bakkt, hmm, too early to say, but just remember that when we have CME and CBoE entered the market in 2017 we experienced some massive dump. Not saying that history will repeat itself here, so we really need to wait what Bakkt can bring in the market in the next coming months. It supposed to push the market, but at this point, we're not seeing any, on the contrary it 'might' have contributed to the sudden downward pattern, so let's see.

Losing twice to Andy Ruiz will ruin his career and he needs to go back again and reset everything. How many fights do he need to go to regain that confidence again? While the top HW are banging it's other as to who is going to be the number 1. While Joshua is fighting the left-overs before he can climb up the ladder again. So it's like going back to zero again because he had lost so much of his stature that his name is no longer in the middle of the discussions. Remember that this is not all about boxing, he needs to win this one so that his sponsorship with other brands would continue as well, Under Armour, British Airways and Hugo Boss and many more, so a definitely a must-win for him.

Lol, yeah I know the screams and the grunts and the match are very unpredictable indeed. But most of the time I watch some interesting games as well. Who would have thought that Osaka was a non-existent this year?


I agree that Barty has all the momentum and advantage at this tournament. All the ranked players advantages except for Simona Halep, who retired because of a recurring back injury.
