621  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue - WBC and WBO 122 lbs bout - May on: March 31, 2023, 10:52:28 PM
This is a great fight for Inoue, fighting against a champion and undefeated, this is surely not an easy fight for him. However, despite my belief that it's not an easy fight, I would still be rooting for him to win, simply because I followed his career and I find him exciting to watch.

Not easy, as Fulton is heavier than all those previous fights that he has before, but knowing him, he will adjust and he will try to showcase everything to make things happened in his favor.

Let's wait and see if how he will entertain his fans after recovering from his injury, few months
of preparations good enough for both champs to train.

However, it's time to move on and focus on the upcoming fight. Hopefully, Nghitumbwa won't take any tips from Akaho.

What kind of tip are you referring to? To become the best actor? Just kidding!

On a more serious note, we can't be sure if Nghitumbwa has the skills to match Casimero's, but I'm hoping that this fight will at least be entertaining. There are rumors that the fight will be held in the Philippines, which would make it a significant event for Filipino fans.

Casimero needs something that will bring a good advertisement to his name. Fans are aiming to see entertaining and enjoyable fights so we might see him showcasing his talent.

It will be depends now with his opponent if he will give something decent against Casimero,
something that will add hypes to this fight.

Only those that have been or are in your shoes can really relate to he reality of what you OP is facing now and it's really hard to tell where the next best decision lies. Some people are so fortunate to have ancestors that left them a great property like a house and they end up throwing that away by gambling it away for obvious irresponsible and reckless behaviors.
Renting does renders ones efforts to be rendered fruitless cause it's all like all your hustling for is to just fix another's pocket at the end of the money or year by paying off your rent. It's a hard situation actually.
I support this statement, only those who are experiencing it right now who can confirm the needs and how they really aiming to own their house but because of lack of capability the only option is to rent.

A waste because even you pay for your bills each month, the house will remain as the owner's
property and will never be yours.

But for those who don't have any option, renting is the only thing that they can afford.
624  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue | WBC & WBO 122 lbs bout | POSTPONED on: March 30, 2023, 03:57:09 PM
This is excellent news for the upcoming fight. As a fan, I don't mind the postponement as long as we have a new date for the bout. With this update, we no longer have to worry about the fight's uncertainty. The mega fight is still on, and I just hope that Inoue's power has not been affected so he can display the same ferocity in the ring that we've seen before.

Yeah, I guess that's once trait of the Japanese people though, I mean they are very apologetic in a sense and so when they say that Inoue is injured, they will have to come up with a new date and probably this is what they come out, a end of July fight.

And we also have to commend Fulton as well, because he understands the accident that happen to Inoue in training and so they have to announced a postponement early. But we have a new date so the fight is still on. I think it might not bothered Inoue, he just can't change his style, just because of his hands. If it heals perfectly then I think he will still have the same or even more power.

I agree, Kudos for Fulton as he is willing to wait after that incident, he didn't demand anything but he was willing to wait for the new date, good thing that his camp will not look for anything but will wait till Inoue is ready.

Good thing that there's a date to wait after the postponement of the schedule fight, they need to
wait till Inoue got better condition after the accident injury.
625  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Nonito Donaire vs Alejandro Santiago for WBC bantamweight title on: March 30, 2023, 03:16:32 PM
As boxing fans and bettors, we have no choice but to wait for that moment when we can witness a unification fight. While this won't be Donaire's first time in a championship fight, we want to see him become a unified champion since Inoue is no longer in this division.

Therefore, I hope the promoters don't play games and give Donaire what he deserves, which is a big fight. His time in boxing is limited, and he deserves a chance to achieve his goals before he retires.

That's good and there will be no other good thing to have when they retired than unifying all the best in their current weight division. since Donaire still has the power and speed because he is still getting intense training, he can go and take this chance before he finally put down his gloves but before that, he should put a lot of effort to win his next fight first and think about that after he wins it. He needs to focus on this one and get into the right shape to unify all the belts and become one of the legends in this sport.
A unification fight between the two could be possible this year if they both win their upcoming fights and decide to pursue it. However, I believe it may be premature to discuss this matter at this time. Donaire still has to win his fight, and despite being the dominant fighter, an aging boxer can be unpredictable, making it difficult to predict the outcome.

Too early about that and like the post above, it's better to focus on winning his upcoming fight and secure the belt. After that, then discussing his next plan can be opened.

I like that statement about aging fighter as we know that even they feel they can still win, the chance that
their body might turn against them is possible, so let's wait till this upcoming fight was over.
626  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Casimero vs Nghitumbwa (May 3) on: March 30, 2023, 03:06:22 PM

Very interesting that it will be just 2 months before this fight, maybe it was a rush for Casimero to have a dancing partner because they need to rush things right now in his career. But I do agree that he needs to get busy and that his new promoter found someone that is willing to fight one of the hardest puncher in this division. For me it's better not to get ahead of himself and talk about Inoue again. Just go and fight and win and then later maybe he will be given the rights to face the Japanese monster. I think that is the smartest thing to do right now for him. Focus one fight at a time.

Yes, just keep doing what is best for his career and wait for his turn. We never know, but since Inoue already went up meaning to say that the chance for Casimero to meet him inside the ring is now possible.

It's a matter of how good the promoter is and how social media will continue to hype Casimero's name
to earn and attract attentions for the fans.
627  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: XRP - yes or no? on: March 30, 2023, 02:43:50 PM
Up until now I have not really thought about getting involved with XRP however have been doing more research and if they win the case feel it could really do well.

With a market cap of $21m already, how high can this really go if all goes well?

Think I may start to DCA into it and if it does win the case then who knows how high it can go, wouldn’t be surprised if it still did a 15x or more from current price.

Are you for or against XRP?

I have always supported XRP and have been buying XRP when the price dump (SEC against XRP) and until now I am still holding XRP and waiting until the price of XRP increases very high or at least reaches its ATH price, so of course I will get a lot of profit from investing in XRP.

You will get a decent amount of profits once XRP pump back, but for now we are still unable to see the market for this coin. After the SEC issue, there are many supporters who already abandon this project.

But if you believe that there are still opportunities to see this coin to pump back, the chance is still
there, just keep your investment where you think you have a good advantage.
628  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: March 30, 2023, 02:00:22 PM
How about the games tomorrow?

It's only 2 games but 1 of them is a must see battle, it's between the Bucks and the Celtics. Holiday just had a huge game against the Pacers with 51 points, (not sure if this is his career though). I'm still not decided as to who to beat on this game.

On the other game, it's the Nuggets vs the Pelicans, I might go with the Nuggets here at handicap.

-5.5 @ 1.82 not bad for the handicap if Nuggets will play solid, but I think it can be covered unless Denver will rest their core starters or they will play soft and let NOP snatch the game from them,.

Oh well, I might follow you, but let me check it during a live game before placing my bet,
chances of resting players might happen here.
629  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Errol Spence vs Keith Thurman on: March 29, 2023, 08:30:54 AM
@LUCKMCFLY, I hope this news is not fake. It would be a huge disappointment if the fight does not happen after all the anticipation and hype surrounding it. Let's hope they ensure that the fight takes place this time. Otherwise, it would be a waste of effort and time, and many fans might lose interest in boxing altogether.

Good update. If this one is now a serious negotiation, if both camps will show the signing of the contract, then it will going to be a mega fight of the year, a long waited an opportunity for all the boxing fans all over the world.

But likewise, if this one will turn to another postponement or nothing will take place with the negotiation
expect that disappointment from the fans will surely hype as well.

Looking to see progress and finalization for these said events.

Just received a promotional email from duelbits regarding a giveaway that will be held in a few days, looks like this is an easter giveaway like they have been doing regularly for the past few years, cracking an egg every day and getting a prize in the form of a challenge and hopefully there will be cash like the old giveaway , there are no details yet on the duelbits website but we will see details soon before this giveaway starts, Be ready, guys, with a deposit, especially if we haven't played here for a long time.

It will be an interesting promotion but I think a lot of people were a bit disappointed with the last Christmas promotion. Two years ago, you also got a cash prize or free spins when you opened the daily present, but last year it was always couple to a challenge (i.e. wagering a certain amount to get rakeback or freespins). It was a different concept but less interesting for the users.

Different marketing strategy depends from how the team thinks about possibility, though sometimes it's not favorable to the gambler. I mean not attractable to gambler, but there are still gamblers who will take it as additional perks.

It might be different from how they offer last time and maybe they will assess it and see if how they will
work on it to bring gambler's attentions.
631  Economy / Economics / Re: Is renting an inevitable waste of money? on: March 28, 2023, 05:33:27 PM
If we rent a place to live, of course, it has become a basic need that we must fulfill, although renting is indeed a waste that we must go through, but besides we rent we must have a target to make a savings to be able to buy our own house, because renting a place to live for a long time is certainly not what we want, then we must be able to live reasonably in the place we have rented because not all places we rent can be comfortable for sure There are many shortcomings, and all need a process to be able to have their own place.
well of course if we are in a financial condition that can only afford to rent a place to live then it will indeed be a waste that we cannot avoid. but we can minimize this waste by looking for a house that can be rented at a lower price. can be done by renting a place to live a little far from the city. because the cost of rent in urban areas is much higher than in suburban areas. but at least we also have to adjust it to the distance that doesn't make it difficult for us to get to work. but if the person works at home like a freelancer. then I think wherever is fine.

Further savings steps can be taken in managing the cost of everyday life to be more effective. such as avoiding unnecessary expenses. so that we can still save and invest to buy a house in the future. because renting a place to live for too long will only make us trapped in a financial condition that is not progressing. so if we are forced to rent, then we have to be more economical in our daily lives so that we can save and invest to buy a house someday.

You need to consider those factors to save some and not to completely waste your money if there's no way for you to purchase or loan your own house, renting if un-avoidable you should maximize your finances.

I like that idea to rent far from the city if you can use to live on that kind of place, it will be much
cheaper and the cost of living is far lesser compared to how it cost when you are residing in the city.

I think it is very difficult to analyze and predict the lowest price point, sometimes our predictions will be wrong and in the end we lose precious moments to buy, because we think too much. buy or not, but my advice if you want to buy an altcoin, choose a quality altcoin because a quality coin has good potential in the future.
Analyzing won't be that easy if you're trying to hit the most accurate one. But it's easy to have all of those analysis and predictions in the market whether they're correct or not and it will just turn out that it's your opinion about the market.

And if you're targeting to buy while we're seeing the market isn't good, you have to make yourself comfortable in buying on those times you consider as the best time to buy whether it's the actual lowest price or not.

You need to be confident with the decision you made if ever you will deal with buying during the dumped, picking the right project will allow you to earn decently once the market recover back.

It's a tough decision to make as most of the time panic is ongoing when there's downfall that ongoing inside
the market.

Hard but you will be compensated if you manage to overcome your fear and able to wait till it bounce back.
633  Economy / Economics / Re: Is renting an inevitable waste of money? on: March 27, 2023, 05:32:26 PM
I think it depends on how urgent the need is, if we go to a new area and we need quite a long time to live there, for example we move to a new workplace, of course this is a very appropriate solution for us to rent a house instead of having to buy a new house.
but if the case is different, for example we rent a car or something that we don't really need, of course this is not very good for our finances, this is where it is a waste.

Exactly, depends from the situation and how will you maximize your finances, if it's really needed to rent as for what you mentioned then it will not fall to a waste or a practical approach for the situation.

But if we can buy or loan a house that we decided to permanently use then it's better to take that road
instead of renting which will never be yours.

@bisdak40. Agreed and it would be in a higher weight division where Casimero will not he overweight similar to what he has done in the bantamweight division.

In any case, what is the latest news? Is this fight only postponed or is there a chance of a cancellation? This might give a chance for Casimero to enter the show if he can challenge someone with a high rank in super bantamweight.

As per the latest news, this fight has been postponed. If Inoue needs more time to recover, then the fight may be cancelled. I'm not sure if Casimero is ready to fight a champion in this division yet. He may still need more fights to climb up the rankings and become a top challenger.

Hopefully Inoue will recover in a quicker time frame, but like what you mentioned, it can be cancelled if Inoue will be needed to take more time in curing the injury that he has right now.

In terms of Casimero, there' are still lots of challengers in this division before he can have that chance to challenge
the current champ. Or, if pressure from Fulton's camp will see the big potential of a money making fight for him.

That would be a great fight - Fulton vs Casimero. If Casimero wins, then Inoue will be the challenger against Casimero. If he does not fight Casimero, that would conclude that he is really dodging him.

As for Inoue's injury, there is no news about its development yet. But I guess it isn't serious, so he'll likely make a comeback this year.

Yes, if fate will turn that way, I mean if chance opens up for Casimero to fight Fulton for the title match and manages to win it against the current champ, we might see the possibility that Inoue will challenge him instead of Fulton.

If Inoue would not do it, we can then conclude that he or his camp is really avoiding Casimero, but I'm still
positive that if a case like this will happen, we will expect both camps to sign the contract and bring it
inside the ring.
635  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: March 27, 2023, 07:16:47 AM
The news of Damian Lillard ending the season made me a little sad. I don't want him to be injured at all, if he has a problem, it may be difficult for him next season. When such a good player deals with serious injuries, he cannot catch up with his old performance, and his age has started to progress.
Portland Trailblazers doesn't have much of a chance to be successful this year anymore. Therefore, the decision taken may be the right one
Yes, I agree, this is a good decision by the Trail Blazers management. Let him take his rest and figure out what he can do next season. Simons and Jerami Grant are both injured so there's nothing much to do.
The only would be to lose more games and try to have a better chance at the lottery in the next draft pick.
I mean, last year was a successful one for Orlando Magic with Paolo Banchero and Houston Rockets' Jabari Smith also making a lot of progress on both offensive and defensive ends.
Once they have a deeper bench, I bet they can come back and play better next year. Perhaps changing the plays should also be their main focus, it cannot be Damian Lillard who handles the ball all the time, there must be someone else who can step up their game to spread the floor more.
I am intrigued about what position will be their target in the Draft, perhaps a shooting guard too or a center/forward.


Unlike before when CJ still playing for them, he can carry the team, even Dame is sitting and resting or if the main alpha is in injury, he can manage to win games with the role players.

Something that Simon and Grant need to work out. They need to step for the team and make it possible
to win games while Dame is resting, we will see how they will take the draft looking to see a rookie that
will help them both offense and defense.

I planned to buy some altcoins now that we are in a bear market but someone I knew is telling me not to, that its possible more dumps will take place, my question is how will I know when it's the right time to buy coins?

if you feel the price is right for you to invest, then you can buy it, but you can invest half of your money, then wait until the price dump again to buy more, so never invest your money directly at one price, because if the price goes down then you won't be able to do DCA (DCA is very useful to help you get profits more easily).

You need to work with your knowledge as you can do shorting when the market is falling, then wait for the bounce to sell what you bought from the dip, a good way to grow your investment and have some decent profits.

Though it's not easy and not always, you can be right with your anticipation, but as long as you are doing your DYOR
the chance is always open for you to earn whatever condition the market you are entering.

This is the right thing to do; he should not be ejected. Sometimes refs get their emotions involved, and because they are officials, they think they can do whatever they want, including making calls that have no reliable basis. Young probably does not like the call, but there's nothing he can do. The call of the ref is final, and he just has to deal with it and be careful next time, especially if the same ref is officiating the game.

This is one of the most trending right now because the referees are getting on the players' nerves and they are becoming the reasons why certain teams will not gonna make it to the playoffs this year because they are becoming more sensitive and calling wrong calls too often in these crucial games. They really need to review these refs and see if there is wrong with their bank's transactions because it will tell it all if they received some millions in their transactions history.

The grounds of ejecting Trae is something that the review should be done, they can give technical foul, but throwing him away from the game will impacted to the whole game of his team.

He's the main alpha, the primary offensive player for the team throwing him out will have a big impact on the performance
of the whole squad. Luckily that they've won the game for sure if they lose it, today lots of gamblers will be pissed because
of that action from the ref.

winning a parlay bet with an amount of $ 523k is very big, he is really lucky or maybe he is a professional gambler who has knowledge in sports betting such as the NBA.
When a player is betting $10k then he surely is taking a big risk and we can make assumptions that he is big whale so he is ready to loose that amount.Second he must be having knowledge also about the players otherwise risking this amount in sports betting doesn't work.But surely luck favours him and he has made big win out of this match with x55 hit and now he must be enjoying his time gambling  Grin This is how luck can shower profits on you.

Yes, aside from knowledge, that kind of parlay and the amount that he bet with is something which we can say that the experienced is really something that influenced him to make this bet.

Plus the luck that back him up after sorting and researching for such kind of bet selections.
Very lucky to enjoy a huge amount of profits from that kind of parlay that he win.

I think cryptocurrency prices can still correction, but not a bear run (just a little decrease), because a few weeks ago the price of cryptocurrency, especially Bitcoin, increase very high, so it's only natural that the price of cryptocurrency decrease (correction) and after that I'm sure the price will definitely increase very high again (if no a bad news or fud about cryptocurrency).
Correction is normal and it's always there, whether it's a bull run or a bear market, we're always having that regardless of the market trend. And like what it is today, there's sort of correction that has happened for bitcoin but it isn't exciting whenever we get a correction?
It's possible that whenever it happens, there's the reversal that goes by just after it, so that's why it's one of the most exciting things to have when you're on this market. Don't be afraid when it happens because it's a typical thing to happen and we can't avoid it but instead, take advantage of it like buying if it does.

And traders and investors who understand this kind of market movement are the one who mostly buying the dump coins that they believe will bounce back and bring them decent profits.

It's your own market understanding as the volatile nature of this business is what traders are working to
make a good position to benefits either it's bull or bear season.
