741  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury - February 25 in Saudi Arabia on: January 30, 2023, 08:21:12 PM
   

Wouldn’t surprise me if Fury pulls out again. His girlfriend is due to have her baby soon, not that he needs an excuse to run away from a fight Wink

I have this feeling that he will pull out again, or he will be motivated because of his girlfriend's condition, some boxers are motivated to fight even when their wives or girlfriends are dues, they want to prove something that they are successful when their baby comes out.
Jake Paul is on the winning run and I don't see him losing to a fighter like Tommy Fury, Tommy is not Tyson Fury he is not even half of his power and skill, I just hope he is man enough to finally face Jake Paul even if he has slim chance of winning.
I guess this time Fury will be more motivated to fight as pulling out again will only ruin his reputation, and this would be a good opportunity to prove himself that he’s better than any boxer just like Jake Paul. However, looking at how these two perform in the ring, I think my vote is for Jake Paul as he is always undefeated and you will really see that he got high discipline and high determination to win. Although Tommy Fury is a decent fighter too, like what Tyson keep on saying, but I can see that Paul has its advantage over Tommy inside the ring.

Tommy should be motivated because he already got all the reasons why he shouldn't get an excuse to run away from this fight as he needed more fame and money because his girlfriend just bore their child while his family already expressed their thought that he's not welcome to the family anymore if he will run away and if he loses, he better quit boxing. Now, his only choice is to face Jake Paul like a decent man should do and grab a win for his whole family, although I know that's not an easy way to do.

No official date yet but it will be in the month of May. The venue is in Japan and it's the first time that Fulton will fight outside the USA.
Hopefully as soon as possible all of us who are here can see the date/day/month of boxing between Naoya Inoue vs Stephen Fulton.

Fulton has to be convincing if he wants to win this fight, I mean, it will be held in Japan, so the judges might favor Inoue if this will go to the judges scorecards. Inoue is known for knocking out his opponent early, so it's not expected to reach the judges scorecards, but just in case though.

Let's not think about that and just hope instead that this fight will push through without using of any influence that will make the fight unfair because of some favors. Inoue already got the homecourt advantage here and his camp, and even the entire nation of Japan is confident and rooting for the boxer to win. Besides, Inoue doesn't need any favor because he will always get the job done as I reckon, he's not planning in staying long in this weight class.

Charlotte Hornets vs Miami Heat - Miami Heat (-3.5)

I actually think I'll take my chances with the Charlotte Hornets tonight, I like them more and I find value in the approximately 2.9 Odds they're offered for ML, with both Lamelo Ball and Terry Rozier playing, even with Cody Martin out, I believe the Hornets still stand more than a decent chance here, and I'm riding with 'em.

Good, I thought I'm the only one betting on those huge underdogs on games, hehehe. This time though, since the game has started, 4.5 for Hornets @2.05.

Memphis going back at home against the Kings, they have been losing on the road, but again, I do hope that this time, they will break their losing skid. I'm looking at a double digit win for them, -9.5 @2.07.

Bucks is healthy once more, against NOP, -9.5 @1.92.

Great Pick on this one, Hornets winning so not just the ML but even the 4.5 was a hit for you.

Memphis has some scary moments in the game as the Pacers took the first 2 quarters and I thought that they are going to lose one at home. But in was Jaren Jackson who bring them back as he leads the team in scoring.

Pelicans their big 3 is out, so Milwaukee taking advantage of it so it was a huge 25 point winning spread.

The easiest bet was the Bucks, they are in control in the whole game and did not give the Pelicans a chance to make it a close game. Most of the results last night was a blowout win by the favorites, except for the Miami Heat vs Charlotte whom the home team were able to win and upset the visiting team.

Not that easy mate because I believe Giannis was listed questionable that night while Ibaka and Portis can't play the game, so it is somehow risky even with a low odds as they were the favorite that night against the Pelicans. However, if you bet during the live games then it's indeed easy because you'll able to see that Giannis is with the team.

Moving on, I see we have 8 games later. I'll give my early bets for now.

Sacramento Kings -1
Washington Wizards -5.5
Golden State Warriors -3.5
744  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Artur Beterbiev vs Anthony Yarde on: January 30, 2023, 05:09:29 PM
Artur Beterbiev successfully defends his title against Anthony Yarde.

The early rounds were tough for both boxers and Yarde is able to keep up with Beterbiev. He was even able to connect some good shots on Beterbiev. But the champion is always a champion and after being fairly outscored at some point, he came out aggressive in 4th round and that's where the trouble on Yarde started.

I thought Yarde, that fully turned serious during the period of his training, will last a whole fight but ended up short.

He's quite lucky because his camp decided to stop the fight before Yarde mops the ring with his face and somehow, I'm confidently sure that Yarde is now embarrassed after all the talks that he did, all those big boy words from him saying that he can literally take-on Artur Beterbiev who got a flawless record with a non-stop KO streak.

I reckon the fight was already decided from 5th round onwards because Yarde was taking much damage and already having troubles to breath thus, he was very different from what we saw from him in the first 3-4 rounds where he's well composed and seems like he can really manage.
745  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: January 30, 2023, 10:18:55 AM
It's all cool to Anthony Yarde.
Quote
“I heard the count start, I took my time, I beat the count, but my trainer and my team love me and said they were seeing something they didn’t like.

“All I was thinking was ‘get up, go at him again, hit him with anything’. But it was called off and I am able to speak and laugh about it now so we live to fight another day.”
https://www.boxingscene.com/anthony-yarde-reflects-on-loss-beterbiev-corner-stopping-fight--172136
That's how fighters should think about their camp. They are just trying to save their boxer and even if it's pride that is on the line then they will give it up.
I like the optimistic view of Yarde though, live to fight another day. He will have his chance again as long as he lives but if his camp didn't stop that, bad injuries could happen and it might shorten his career.
I thought it was Yarde who said something on his corner after getting up, but he said Tunde Ajayi saw something was wrong to decide and stop it.
He should probably watch the replay of their fight, he did great and gave Beterbiev a heck of a beating too.

Enough with Yarde and his nonsense statements Cheesy Right from the start, I already doubted his presence in-front of the Russian-Canadian monster but like he said days prior the fight, he learned something that will make him different from what we saw from the Kovalev fight which got my attention and gave him some benefit of the doubt. But at the day of their fight, it was somehow evident that Beterbiev is too much for Yarde. And now Yarde is talking again? The man is still trying to be relevant.
746  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: January 30, 2023, 09:49:56 AM
And what others have thought:



https://twitter.com/OfficialNBARefs/status/1619815874583752704

The referees themselves admitted that they have make a big blunder on that last play, a drive by Lebron which they didn't call any foul. On the other hand, they call a foul + 1 on the other side prior to the call to make the score tie. And James is really mad after that but he can't do anything but to continue to play but eventually they have lost the game. And this game is closed to rigging and cheating by the referees, in my opinion.
There's the ref on that side of view on that image and I don't believe what they say. In those crucial moments, they have to review if it's a foul or not, right?
But they didn't call it out since it's their home team that's in danger of just losing the game with just 1 free throw to get in made by James. There should really be a call out on that incident and more sanctions and punishments for those referees that neglected their duty.

Yes, I certainly agree! They said it themselves, "Like everyone else, referees make mistakes". But the question is, are they getting some penalties or some sort of punishment because of the move they did? I guess not and for that, they should evolve for a much better referee so that every game is somehow fair and just.

By the looks of it, it sure looks like the refs made a bet on the Celtics side and the reason why they cheated or rigged the game. Just a thought.
747  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue - WBC and WBO 122 lbs bout - May on: January 28, 2023, 08:09:32 PM
Can't really make sure about that as we know that Fulton got some pride as well because he managed to possess two of the 4 belts, WBC and WBO. Besides, I'm more than inclined that he is quite confident enough to fight with Inoue without any worries because he hasn't yet fought someone or any boxer that comes near with Inoue's league. So, this time, it's his turn to taste a punch from a true monster and it will surely be fun watching these two clashing.

Even prior to Naoya Inoue becoming the undisputed bantamweight champion, Stephen Fulton already express his interest that once Inoue finally moved up, he wants a clash against being called the Japanese monster. Actually, Fulton is set to move up at 126 lbs but maybe wants to taste how's the feeling of fighting against the hype Inoue and how strong he really is.

About the odds discussion, oddsmakers favor Inoue as the Favorite to win this match.

This is the first time that Fulton is being an underdog in his professional match.

Naoya Inoue Sizable Favorite in Stephen Fulton Bout

Oh yeah? But somehow, I'm already expecting the scenario that the sports bookies will list Naoya Inoue as the favorite here against the 2-belt champion, Stephen Fulton. And it seems that the Japanese monster is even listed as a heavy favorite because I imagine that even if Inoue will be the favorite, their odds won't have some huge gap but I'm wrong. These bookies won't really give the bettors some advantage even if this is a 1st time for Inoue in the super-bantam Grin

11 games later. Wow! It makes you drool for a long parlay.
Philadelphia 76ers vs Denver Nuggets - no bet yet, will try to do it before the game. Nuggets had so much listed in the probable status.
Brooklyn Nets vs New York Knicks - Brooklyn Nets (-1.5) Knicks won their 2 games, they should rest. Give this one to the Nets.  Cheesy
Minnesota Timberwolves vs Sacramento Kings - Sacramento Kings (-1.5) - Healthy Kings. Adding the Over 236.5 This could go 250+ in my own prediction.

Try and have some parlay if you'd like my friend Grin for me, I'll just deal with a single bets so that my other bets won't be destroyed incase one of them will be having an unfortunate scenarios, just like what happened with the Mavs recently where Luka had an early exit. Fortunately, Spencer Dinwiddie was there to the rescue.

Let me tail you with the Kings and Nets mate, I'll try and watch the Sixers vs Nuggets live as it's still too risky for now because just like as you've said, Nuggets have listed so many important players as questionable/probable.

And I'll throw a few towards the Lakers vs Celtics game : Lakers ML @ 3.90

750  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UK fines online casino for only asking KYC from winning gamblers on: January 27, 2023, 07:45:53 PM
Almost every gambling platform does this and they never find it a serious issue, as they never look from the user end. It is good to allow deposits only after KYC verification. We users of different online casinos might've experienced it, but the support teams easily give a solution as the platforms doesn't want to degrade the reputation of the platform.

The competence in the gambling industry paves path for the success and give the best comfort for gamblers.
KYC should be introduced at the start so that gamblers will know eventually whether it’s good to proceed betting or find some other casinos that don’t require KYC. However, if you look for reputable casinos these days particularly online, most of them are requiring KYC but the sad fact is they only ask KYC when gamblers are winning huge amount, so that creates nontransparency on the part of gamblers.
751  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My first sponsored Bitcoin seminar on: January 27, 2023, 07:20:49 PM
I love the threads here that show local stories of how Bitcoin is becoming more known and accepted as payment by people. These stories are often from Nigeria (I don't know if this one is from there or from a different country), and that formed a very positive impression of the people of this country for me. I believe people are right that you shouldn't focus on the price side, and I'd also recommend browsing the forum for threads of previous similar events hosted by forum members (here is just one example). Some even had screenshots or lengthy descriptions of what they were talking about.
This proves that bitcoin has got a lot of interested users and investors, but it only takes awareness and promotion so that the people around will start acknowledging it and appreciate it just like fiat’s value. While this could be very helpful to combat inflation, then it’s more of a reason that people should save and invest into bitcoin and prepare for the huge profits in the future.

Gambling in Japan is not black and white. In fact, gambling is considered a criminal offence and is generally banned across the country.

Those that are found gambling can face large fines and even serve jail time.

However, there are exceptions to this rule. Betting on horse racing and the lottery are two forms of gambling that are accepted in Japan.

To me, this seems hypocritical. You claim that gambling is illegal, but you may bet on horse racing, Pachinko, bicycle racing, boat racing, and Mahjong, which baffles me. I do not seem to understand. Why is that so? You claim it is unlawful, yet wagering on games that are overseen by the government is not unlawful. Is this not hypocritical? What does the government fear?


https://gamblingnewsmagazine.com/gambling-in-japan/
We don't know what really happened there and why it was like that.
If from my point of view and mindset, maybe because betting on a match that is supervised by the government is permitted and legalized because the tax that is given is quite large and in accordance with what has been legalized.
If you say hypocrite, yes, hypocrite because they allow several types of betting, but on the other hand, they also prohibit gambling activities in the form of games or other bets.
I believe horse racing is part of their yearly tradition so it’s hard to banned something like that since people have been used witnessing that. But for lottery, most likely the tax they are getting from it are huge so it can be very helpful in financing the social and economic infrastructure of a country. Except for those who are banned because they are not helping the country at all and only the casino owners are mostly benefiting while leaving the citizens totally addicted which eventually ruin their future.
753  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Reason why I will never help anyone to invest in crypto on: January 27, 2023, 07:06:37 AM
It's more preferable to introduce one to something new and then teach them everything there's to learn about that thing but once it gets to the investment part, they have to do that their self. They should be the one taking the risk and not the other way around.
I remember I decline some of my friends when they just wanted to give them some money and they will just wait if ever they will have some returns, they just wanted just to invest in me and wait for some returns. I don’t like the idea since it will put me into too much pressure. I explain to them the risk and gives them necessary informations or guides where they can research for their investments or trades if ever they wanted to push by themselves but unfortunately their interest where not into crypto and just let it slip, they might think Im selfish but it will be better if their the ones who will handle their money.
Your friends are just after the profits but don’t want to commit themselves investing in crypto. It’s like they just want to reap what you sow, because you’ll be the one to take the efforts and make wise decision so that the investment will end up successful. So it’s just right that you decline their offer, because even if you accepted it, of course you don’t want to deal with for the rest of your life and take their blames when they are already losing. If they want to invest, then they should be responsible to manage it with their own knowledge and skills.

Economic cycle? This is a natural climatic disaster, it doesn't only disturbs the economic cycle but the complete life cycle of a certain place. A lot of people die and have to be relocated, not to forget even animals suffer a lot of deaths. People are abandoned and separated from their loved ones. So this is much more than just a disturbance in economic cycle.
I have to agree with you on this point. Flooding will not only destroy us economically, but the whole aspects of life are being damaged and ruined. The sad fact is we can’t do nothing about this even how much we say we are completely prepared. This is not just happening in your area OP, but in some countries as well. I just hope that the government have enough resources to extend assistance to all the flood victims.
755  Economy / Economics / Re: Your way of living the wage what you need to live normal life on: January 26, 2023, 06:31:51 PM
Meanwhile in Philippines, the minimum wage runs around almost $10 or maybe less and those who sit in the government think this is enough considering the price inflation. Not to mention there are still people who get paid lower than the minimum wage. Imagine how these people find ways to earn money just to serve food at their family's table. The government is mostly in favor of companies and investors since they are scared that this might cause them to back out and will leave lesser job opportunities.
That’s how inflation have turned people into wanting any job as long as they can afford to put food on the table. But seems the government has been blinded by it, believing as long as people get job, they can never be fully dependent anymore from the assistance of the government. Well, that may be true, but my only hope is that the government too will show more support to the needs of the workers rather than favoring the side of these businesses owners who are mostly not Filipino citizens, but foreigners.

Probably a bit too hasty. In the first place, how confident are you that you gave your "friend" correct/accurate information? Knowing that you said yourself that you're still a beginner.
It’s good that you are also promoting bitcoin in your neighborhood but what is bad about is you could have gone wrong in giving him the facts about bitcoin. Since you are also new in bitcoin, you are still less knowledgeable about how risky bitcoin is so you should have told him to just research in the internet and by the time you understand how bitcoin works, that’s the time to decide if you want to invest or not.
757  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: January 23, 2023, 07:25:14 PM
I am still hesitant whether Inoue will dominate the 122 lbs unless he beats Casimero.  You can win the belt but unless you beat all the possible contender, there is no way to say that a boxer dominates that weight category since there is still 1 what if that is left which cause doubt in the mind of the boxing fans.

Bantamweight and SuperBantamweight don't really have much of a big difference. Inoue has a big chance of dominating the 122 lbs.

But John Riel Casimero as a basis for it? That was a pure non-sense argument. I like our own Casimero to face Inoue in the future and will support him obviously but for him to consider a big threat to Inoue seems not appropriate. Blame their camp because Casimero wasn't able to get the chance of facing Inoue in the Bantamweight.

As I mentioned, for that Casimero to be included in the discussion again, he just needs to keep on winnings until being recognized and moved up the rankings. There are lots of tough boxers in the 122 lbs aside from Inoue and those current champions.

Precisely! there are champions from this division they are the threat to be consider once Inoue start challenging them to have that chance to unify all the belts from this division, I don't see Casimero yet as he don't have that title and his ranking is far from anyone, he can fight and there's no doubt but to earn that respect and to move his way up, he needs to fight and win more.

For now, it will be depends on who will be the camp that Bob Arum will negotiate to challenge the current belt holder.

In short, Inoue already proved himself because he managed to defeat most of the boxers at 118 lbs that's why he is not campaigning at 122 lbs to see if his prowess can still keep up with the heavy names in the stated division. But for Casimero, aside from he is starting at the bottom this time, he should get himself recognize by winning more fights before we can say that he is indeed one of the threats in the division that a champion needs to face before he will be considered as the undisputed.

Bro, you took a big risk here, I like the courage. Good luck with that. I will check it out later as it will be the last game of the day.

Truely it's a risky bet because the Lakers aren't really that consistent especially without Davis on the floor but fortunately, they managed to have a good run in the 2nd half and defeated the Blazers all the way to the end of the match. My basis is that the Blazers aren't performing well recently, so I had to have a huge risk in this one because the ML are too tempting to pass.

759  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Artur Beterbiev vs Anthony Yarde on: January 23, 2023, 06:41:29 PM
And it could he could larger and boost his psychology that he can defeat him because the fight is going to be in his country, so he has what we call homecourt advantage but not sure if this is true in boxing. So yeah, we will see if he has what it takes, I mean accepting it shows that he has big balls already, but facing him in the ring could be different for Yarde when he taste the first punch of Beterbiev.

Homecourt advantage, so is the home crowd, might really be an advantage but that was all useless if a boxer is really up against a tough opponent.

Artur Beterbiev is not new to pressure and seems won't really be affected much fighting against a crowd.

Yarde on the other hand should take advantage of any advantages in this fight. A boost of morale because of the crowd is a big help but that is nothing if he can't perform well in the actual fight.


It will be a struggle for Yarde finding that advantage because I'm sure that the 3-belt champion, Beterbiev, won't show any weakness in this fight that will make Yarde's journey much easier. I know that Beterbiev's not that perfect despite of his perfect record but somehow it's hard to believe that Yarde can truly make a difference.

I'm just under the impression that Yarde is saying this stuff and that because he wanted to market the fight and he wanted to show in front of his people that he is not afraid facing a boxer that is touted like a monster but I really doubt that he can stand his ground.

True, that's all he can do right now, since the fight is his backyard, he needs his fans to attend and watch the fight. So he is hyping and trying to sell it to them obviously so that they will get a lot of money thru live gate splits and PPV numbers.

But in any case, Beterbiev is too good for Yarde in my opinion. There is a disparity as far as power goes, and so we all know that he will be in a very tough situation in front of his crowd and then losing via knockout, hehehe.

Well, we cannot really blame the man if he is speaking big words as if he can really do it and prove that he's not all words. At least he will garner a big amount of money after the fight even if he's going to lose at the end of the day, I'm sure that deep inside he knew that his chances aren't that good. Anyway, fight schedule is already approaching and I'm still waiting for other betting options to open as the current odds aren't that great for us regular bettors.

I think that Yarde is going to win the most here, not only because of the money he will receive and he will be able to say many things, perhaps he says them to gain more fame and attention, but I honestly believe that things can be done in a more appropriate way for Both, if Yarde plans to do other things after this fight, I'm sure they will be given to him without much effort, I think it can be that way, however I know that Beterbiev is a boxer with a lot of experience who will not give up, much less give him away the fight is something that can be very scary for him, plus the majority of the world is biased that he will win.

“Mark has said before many times that I have got proper punch power,” reflected the 3-0 Fletcher, who next features on the undercard of the blockbuster Artur Beterbiev-Anthony Yarde unified world light heavyweight title card at the OVO Arena, Wembley on January 28, live on BT Sport.

“It is not hype, it is real and when people see statements like that they want to see proof of it. They won’t take anyone’s word for anything and I think I really showcased what I am about in that fight.

Source: https://www.worldboxingnews.net/2023/01/20/tommy-fletcher-aims-to-extend-ko-c-v-on-beterbiev-vs-yarde/


Not really biased because Beterbiev has also worked his way towards the top until he managed to possess 3 of the 4 belts availabl and that's why majority of the world are more inclined to see him win because his records speaks loudly and can vouch him for that. But yes, I do agree that Yarde can really have his way if ever he will be proclaimed as the winner here because defeating Beterbiev will really lift his name towards the top and people will start calling for a fight of unification versus Bivol, but that is if Yarde can actually do that and upset the heavy favorite.
760  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue - WBC and WBO 122 lbs bout - May on: January 22, 2023, 05:51:53 PM
Good for him, I don't know much a lot with Stephen but Naoya sure is a monster and is worthy of his alias. On 122 lbs, I'm sure that he'll feel something new with that but he's aware of any changes on that division and since he's the undisputed champion on the past division that he has left, it's becoming more interesting not just on him but also the title match that he has vacated.

I don't also see Inoue having issues on 122 lbs, and I think he can bring his power to this division (I hope others will agree with my observation). What I really like about Fulton is his never say die mentality, against Brandon Figueroa, he shows a lot of heart and win that fight in the judges score card. But I don't think he can last against the power of Inoue.
We'll not know yet since it's going to be the first match he's got for his upgrading division. Well, as for Fulton's style, if he's got the heart to never give up.
It's for Inoue to show his prowess that he can end matches too quick and his power is really strong that he might get knocked out, not just by luck but by his strength and style.

Again even in 122 lbs, he might be even powerful in this division because he doesn't have to weight drain himself just to make the desired weight. Now he can eat without issues and then go to the gym train hard every day. Fulton's tenacity will be tested here.
Yes, there will be some adjustments but the skill and the typical Inoue we know will not change and his attributes will remain, we may even see him upgrade that as well.

I think maybe we can base on others who have move up to different divisions and become successful. As someone pointed out, it's just 4 lbs sound, so it's not that huge jump and even us non boxers who gain 4 lbs in the pandemic might not see the difference after all.

So I would also leaning on the premise that Inoue might be good if not better at 122 lbs because his body is going to be fully rehydrated even before the fight and that is a big factor for boxers not needing to drain themselves in weigh-in.

4 pounds is what? I think that's just a little less than 2 kilograms, so I bet Inoue won't be having that much trouble in his climb because the difference isn't that huge. The only challenge for Inoue now that is still considered as a mystery is, how does a natural 122 lbs boxer fight behave and fights inside the ring because we all know here that there's really a difference compared when Inoue's still at 118 lbs.
Some are even saying that it's somehow risky because rather than testing the waters first, Inoue goes directly at a champion. I'd say, I guess we will know it soon.
