And it looks like Zverev won over David Ferrer 6-4 4-6 7-6(0) and secure the victory for Germany in the Hopman cup. And it was great battle but Zverev was in the zone and never give up. Ferrer came back to win the 2nd set though, but it was not enough as Zverev didn't melt under the pressure but level up his game.

What a night.

Jones destroys Gus and claim the vacant Light Heavyweight again. Nunes upset Cyborg and wins the featherweight belt. I thought Cyborg has the upper hand in the striking but Nunes came up blazing, both hands caught Cyborg and that overhand right was perfect to end the fight.

The warriors again facing the Portland Blazers, this time they are the road team, this is a revenge for the warriors.
So, I'll likely gonna take them now, regardless of the line, I think they will not allow to lose again tonight, otherwise, they'll be on the 3 losing streak.

Line looks so tempting, it could be a trap, but who cares, what I just put in mind is that they have to win tonight.

Looks like you are correct. Right now they have built a commanding lead going into the 3rd quarter. I didn't put any bets cause I'm done gambling for this year. Although Portland was fighting hard and was able to trim the lead to a single digit, the Warriors was able to put early basket. So let's see, it's not over yet, might be another OT for all we know.

This is not about Lebron making Lakers better, of course whichever team he is on will be better but this is just a way of showing it is not his talents that makes a team better, its also his bringing everyone best that makes teams better.

Exactly. The team is still very young and they needed a leadership that Lebron can bring to the Lakers. He can only carry them to a certain point, but all players also needed to bring their A game as well so that they can win games with or without Lebron playing.
7565  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much did you make from gambling in 2018! on: December 30, 2018, 12:03:05 AM
I'll probably say I lost like .5 BTC - 1 BTC this year. My bad luck started around August and it seems that I'm having a hard time to recoup either online or playing at land based casino. 2017 was a good year for me, but i guess you can't really win every time. But I'm still good though, nothing to worry on my end, I can live another day and gamble. But I probably stop for a while and wait till this year is over and try my luck again next year.

OK. I was just browsing around the forum and looking to swap my Bitcoins to Ethereum because I needed some ETH for my wallet and found your services. I was a bit hesitant as first but decided to try some small amount so that just in case I was scam, it was easy to take on my part. However, to my surprised, it was very quick.

I would definitely recommend your services to some of my friends, specially those I guided and mentor because they're just a newbie (heck I even convinced them to get it while we are still in the bearish trend). I do hope that you guys continue your services not just to become a alternative, but the main service for exchanging coins. Best of luck.  Grin

7568  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: According to Yahoo Finance, Waves is fastest public blockchain in World. on: December 27, 2018, 08:47:47 AM
I have seen a lot of articles about Waves recently. They also raised the advantages of Waves. I also recognize them very much, but I am very disappointed in the bear market, even if a good project is difficult to get attention.

Don't be disappointed because this is just part of the game. We have already waited for about a year now so we are getting closer to the tail end of the bear season and we might see 2019 as the start of a bull run. As far as Waves though, it's debatable, you will hear the XRP or even LTC is faster so as they say. But if you see this kind of article, I have doubts though, maybe they just wanted to give it a headline or maybe a paid advertisement.
7569  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Falling to mid 3K Will it go down more? on: December 27, 2018, 08:41:29 AM
I have opened orders for 2300$

Nice that is if bitcoin suddenly went on another massive sell-off, your orders will not be fulfilled. Anyways, the market seems to have a strong support @3K and it's just a couple of days before the end of 2018 so I doubt that we will go lower than that. I guess everyone really have to be optimistic and forget all the pains that 2018 has given us and look at 2019 very positive for a reversal.
7570  Economy / Speculation / Re: FRUSTRATED AT THE MARKET. on: December 27, 2018, 08:36:20 AM
Honestly. this is from a gentle soul that believed and hope the crypto market will get better. I must be hedonistic regards this CRYPTO of a thing. the fact is that we have witness huge Reds Colors in the Market More than the Greens Signs. these days we do have long days of Red trends more than the green trends. it is getting frustrating. i wonder if there could be crypto addicts. Even if we are not expecting the green days so Quick. Let their be BALANCE in this market.
Else we might wake up one day and Move back to square One.
Imagine Loosing out 7.5 billions USD over night. it quite outrageous.
Honestly, the market humbled most of the crypto lovers this year and dashed so many dreams and aspirations. It is even worse now compared to when this OP was made. But that isn't saying that the market will be completely wiped off. I don't truly see that happening. Not now, not ever. This is just a passing phase. I expect the bulls to return next year.

Yes, it's a hard lesson for all of us never we thought that the market will suffer like this after we have touched almost $20K and everyone was happy and some becoming crypto mlllionaires. But Lo and Behold the market changes for the worst and many got burned including me. Now everyone is humbled and learn how to adjust and be flexible in this kind of situation, might be a blessings for everyone to experience this kind of bearish sentiments.
7571  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to survive on: December 27, 2018, 08:31:06 AM
I have not earned anything from August, last earning was when I sold some BTC, although it was earned in April. The only way to survive in this situation is to wait for good days to come. Mining is very expensive now a days. It was profitable till  june 2017. Due to increase in prices miners, graphic cards and other stuff like electricity. 

May-June was worst but when everyone thinks that the coming "ber" months will really change the situation, but it was a complete opposite. August was the start when campaign started to dry up although the price was relatively stable at around $6K. However, November was the low point of Bitcoin when the price went down to $3K and we haven't recovered as of yet.
7572  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If Petro-Dollar falls, what will happen to Crypto currencies ? on: December 27, 2018, 08:26:15 AM
Hi friends,

I know that is a far fetched question, but i believe if you guys believe in the predictions of Simpsons, then this is a very much reality, The fall of Petro-Dollar.

But what will be its impact on the crypto curriencies if it ever happens. I mean what will happen if Petro-Dollar crashes ?

Your opinions please.
Edit: Question in simple (What will happen to cryptos if Dollar falls)

Petro Dollar? What it has to do with cryptocurrency though?

Or are you talking.about the Petro crypto made by the Venezuelan government to help them "recover" financially?

Or are you talking about crude oil in relation to USD? If crude oil price skyrocketed then obviously it will have a negative impact on the world economy as we all know almost every country uses and total reliant to the supply of it. But if there's some impact on crypto? I'm not really sure though, it may or may not.

If you best defense is doubt then how can you become mature and understand how to take advantages of uncertainty. Of course, people hate uncertain things specially in crypto market. But what can we do when everything is based on speculation? That's why we always say that this market is not for the faint of heart because in blink of an eye, everything changes. It's either you accept it with open arms and take advantages of it or just walk out.
7574  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 mens Australian Open (tennis) betting odds on: December 27, 2018, 08:03:16 AM
Djokovic 2.30
Federer 8.00
Nadal 8.20
Zverev 9.50

Tempted to place a bet on Zverev, nice odds, I believe Federer is done physically, same for Nadal (will too rusty at least), while the favorite is Djokovic I think it's time for Zverev to step up and go far, maybe capitalize on an early crash for Nadal or Federer.

Zverev won the ATP finals while he was at odds 20 before the tournament, it's time to back him to win a slam.

Any constructive opinion welcome.

I would consider Zverve a risky but worth taking bet, if you believe he can cause an upset. In my personal opinion Nadal would be coming after a long injury break and he'll be at his best to keep his number one status intact. I'll agree with you on federer I don't expect much from him, he's way past his peak. I would however not consider Djokovic out of the equation, as he will do all to become number one again. I would advise you to check their injury status before you place a bet.

Nadal is no longer number one. And I am a big fan but I don't think he'll have a shot at the #1 spot again. I saw his schedule for 2019 and he intends to play too many tournaments. Just look Smiley https://www.menstennisforums.com/2-general-messages/955846-2019-rafael-nadal-schedule.html absolutely crazy, will ruin his chances to do well at Wimbledon and the US Open. .. and as I was saying, I think he is too rusty for the Australian Open, hope to be wrong, would love to see him win there again.

Well that's the plan but usually players like Nadal and Federer just don't go any more full circuit tournaments and just chooses which tournament they want to join specially Grand Slams. But I would agree that Zverev is a good bet here. He was inconsistent last year but was able to win the last trophy during the 2018 calendar beating Djokovic so it's worth the risk putting money on Zverev.
7575  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your favorite gambling movie? on: December 27, 2018, 07:56:09 AM
....

Casino Royal
Ocean's Eleven

I just have 1 favorite movie which is Casino Royale.
I'm ever watch god of gambler but it's comedy so I'm prefer action movie.

Believe it or not after I watch the movie, I learn their gambling trick and make the practice on crypto gambling , it was fun for experience it !
I think I was able to watch the Casino Royale Movie.
I'm just curious, if you don't mind me asking, what kind of gambling trick did you learn from that movie?


As far as I can remember, they are playing Texas Hold’em here:

However, there's no trick here, obviously he has the best hand so he went all in and won.
7576  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Floyd Mayweather set for New Year's Eve fight in Japan on: December 27, 2018, 07:41:57 AM
To those with a lot of question about this "glorified sparring match", here's a nice article written a few hours ago
https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/boxing/8050614/mayweather-vs-nasukawa-time-tv-channel-rules-undercard/

I thought this fight is called off according to Floyds Instagram account, but I guess the power of money is so irresistible to Floyd to let this one pass. If there's a media black out on this sparring fight and it's not going to be counted on each fighters record then this simply is nothing but for the money and not for the sport.



This is my predicted outcome. The fight's result or the fight itself will be made very controversial so that Floyd will get a good round of publicity for months in preparation for his next $100 million fight.

This is a scam to gain publicity.

If will definitely end in a draw and Floyd walking a happy bunny with all the money he got from the Japanese crowd who is willing to be scam. lol. And then he will go on the media saying that he is still the richest man in boxing and not even Canelo's supposedly $300++ Million contract with DAZN can touch him.
7577  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think you are a gambling expert? on: December 27, 2018, 07:27:12 AM
I am not an expert gambler, just a casual one but from what I see here is that we have yet to find a true expert. So far I have only seen experts in Poker Tv series in real life.

Yes, poker players are considered experts and professional. If you have seen them in TV you have the impression that they are in control of the game. Unlike other games wherein we just base everything on luck so there will be no experts on that category unless the cards or slot machines are rigged to help you win big money.

It's good to hear though that the injury suffered by Lebron is not that bad after although he was listed as day-to-day with groin injury. I agree though that Golden State has a off-night as they're missing shots that Curry or Durant has been hitting all day long. But it's a good win for the Lakers and all around performance after Lebron have to sit after he hyper extended that left groin.
Let's see if the Lakers can still have a win without Lebron.
If they'll make a good record then maybe we have to applause this team for playing with team work.
I'm afraid that they will be like the Cavaliers performance without Lebron James playing with them.

Since the injury is not so serious, I believe they'll still be in the top 8 spot even though they'll stop winning.
If lakers will manage to play the same type of chemistry  against the warriors, and the blend and dedications of each players inside the court will continue, even without Lebron they will be able to win, rondo is always a playmaker as he can deal with pressures, he just needed some backup coming from kuzma and the rest of the team, maybe we are now seeing the true potential of this squad after defeating the champ on its own court.

Not only Rondo can be a playmaker, he can also be the experience the veteran that can guide this young Lakers when Lebron is out or not playing. I really like that kid, Kuzma, more than Lonzo right now. Kuzma and Lebron really have a good chemistry, more than any other young players in that roster. Lakers is already 4th in the Western Conference just a few games behind GSW, Nuggets and OKC.
7579  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Manny Pacquaio vs. Adrien Broner on: December 27, 2018, 07:13:36 AM
In related news:

Adrien Broner Sued By Jeweler Over $1.15 Million in Unpaid Bills
Adrien Broner Arrested in Florida Due To Outstanding Warrant.

But it looks like the fight is going to push through despite Broner having personal problems. But it's crazy though, $1 million for jewelry alone? That's why boxers really need to be careful with their finances otherwise all the money they got will just be wipe out in just a couple of years.

LOL. Maybe AB really needed this fight so that hey can pay his debts. It's always been the case for high profile athletes though, majority of them either been scammed by their Managers or they are dumb to make a healthy and good financial decisions in life. Who the hell will buy a million worth of jewelries just to show-off? It was said that he is emulating Floyd, bad actor to be your "Hero".

Well a lot of these blue collar sportsmen didn't start well off in the first place so it's understandable that some of them succumb to trying to live beyond their means. Especually when you see bastards like mayweather showing off what they  earned through boxing. This is going to be something that'll be in broner's head come fight night and another thing going for old man pacquiao.

Yep, this will definitely bother Broner coming in with a lot of personal issues surrounding him. It's going to be a psychological advantage for Pacquiao and even if Broner's camp says that it will not affect him because they have one of the best camp, I don't believed it. And if he really trying to idolized Floyd then I'm really sorry for him. He might go down the drain faster than anyone does in boxing after he retire if he continue his spending like jewelries and cars.
7580  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Value investment tool for altcoin on: December 27, 2018, 07:06:27 AM
I think the prospect of cryptocurrency is very good. Now the investment in cryptocurrency must be profitable, but there are thousands of altcoin on the market, and there will be more in the future. At present, many are scams, and the value will be zero.
I want to know what value investing tools can determine which coins are worth investing and which will become the next generation of Bitcoin or Ethereum.

I'm sorry to tell you that there's no such kind of tool in existence as far as I know. Everyone here DYOR (Do your own research), it means there's a lot of hard work behind choosing what coins to invest in order for you to make a lot of money in this market. You can also visit the Scam Accusations thread to know which projects have been identified as fake and scam.
