Liking the look of this, what do you think boys?
I loved this one. In fact, if you'd taken all the Specials from yesterday you'd have won them all: MMA UFC260 that you posted above at @2.70 Miami ATP special @3.25 (not graded yet as Fucsovics match was way past midnight) And then the 1st goalscorer boost was really nice too, hit in 11th minute. A lot of beer money for me today! =)   Yoo, who else noticed there is no VAR? Crazy, i almost forgot how smooth matches can be without 5 to 10 min interruptions/reviews of obvious shit, the entire WC '22 qualifiers in Europe will be without VAR. Epic!!!  I totally did. My kid was asking me about Ronaldo's goal -- it crossed over the line replays showed and he was fuming so much he got a yellow for his efforts haha -- but I said, no VAR buddy, enjoy! I mean see, if teams had like 3 VAR calls like in tennis where you get to ask for video review 3 times, you could use it here. But yes, wasn't it just nice to see football flow so well? You can celebrate goals and not look to the monitor and wonder if öshitwasIoffside5minutesago ... |

I really need to remember to put in my evening singles, hit another one last night with 1st goalscorer Diogo Jota at 9/1, those superboosts at Sportsbet really take you high (original odds were 7.20!). Anyway, Estonia made our hearts bleed when they went ahead twice to end up losing 4-2, but hey, some salvation from Miami ATP! 100 units boosted and insured: England HT, Iceland, Sweden, Ukraine, CR Belouizdad @18.74. Other odds: 17.66. Units advantage: 118 Running advantage after 282 bets: +19,084 (+118)
All-time cumulative: +56,631
Running units after 281 bets (393W|238L): +8,154 (-500+325= -175) |

Damn Malta almost put up the biggest upset of the tourney so far. Didn't back them because well, it's Malta. But what the odds would have been for a halftime win eh? Belgium, Portugal drawing probably eventually expected. It's worth to mention that Estonia were missing maybe over 20 players because of Covid. Even with all main players they aren't better than Belarus. But red card that they got was game-changer.
Yeah, can't believe they actually led twice, and it was for sure a balanced game until that red card. Except for possession, shots and chances were pretty much equal. |

That's at least a handful I know of just from these headlines then, I thought, and then I read it's under their Labour party. Still some way of from state pension funds like Norway that started many years ago though so they're ahead of the curve. Don't believe many Kiwis would put as much as 5% though. They'd need quite a bit of majority vote at the funds and as much as I like them, can't see anyone in any financial department vote for that much allocation, so probably needs a bit more detail than this. Still, I'd love to join such a fund if I were from there;)

Well hot damn, I know Estonia are the underdogs but they actually played the better football at times and fully deserved the lead -- just a shame they had to let Belarus into the game with that penalty.
I got a bet both ways so a draw really doesn't help me here heh.
Croatia, Netherlands, all ahead as expected. But how about Turkey? Highest-scoring team so far!

Wouldn't pay for someone's farts, let alone a digital imprint. Why give something such pointless monetary value? What are we going to sell next? Finney's first Tweet about Bitcoin? Is his widow or family going to pop up online and sell that? And you do realise selling an NFT on all these things don't mean the owners are going to have any rights to reproduction at all, yeah? Besides the point that they shouldn't, they actually can't. |

What people need to know is that this is not the same Croatia from 2018 World Cup in Russia, some key players have left (Rakitic, Mandzukic, Subasic (GK), Corluka), and Modric is 35 years old. In the match with Slovenia, they had only one real chance, which speaks enough that they have very big problems with realization.
Cyprus is nominally a weaker team than Croatia, but they showed that they can offer good resistance to stronger teams than themselves, and it is no coincidence that they played a draw with Slovakia.
Modric is old yeah but I always thought of him as "old" and all due respect, that tourney was a sort of fluke for me that he stood out -- not that I rate him poorly at all, he still features in my "to score" or "to assist" at club level. Betting against Croatia hasn't been good enough odds-wise, so yeah, I did fall for them at the first game. Still think this is theirs to win though -- group I mean. Russia - Slovenia 2-1 The first half was very productive! Slovenia managed to score a goal in the last minutes of the first half... Now the odds on their victory is 15... Knowing the game of my national team, anything can happen in the second half!  Wouldn't exactly call 36 min "in the last minutes" but haha good game. I had Ilisic to score in UCL but he didn't start, nice to see him grab one on the big stage. Good luck to you! I'd be taking those odds now except they were probably lucky not to concede at least one more. Still, you'd be chuffed with a draw, wouldn't you? =) |

International breaks can be such a drag, i'm more excited about English League 1 and 2 fixtures tomorrow afternoon than any of the Qatar qualifiers that we have.
Yeah, for some reason I've always felt more comfortable betting on English football, and still seeing so many familiar faces in League 1 and 2 brings me probably a bit of false familiarity even knowing the teams there are a shadow of their former selves. But hey, the Leeds story is proof that former glories are there for restoring no? My pick is on an Estonia upset, but I still got a bet on Multi Magic of course;) Mindless hedging I do sometimes haha... |

The Fed's balance sheet is going parabolic. It took 10 years after the 2008 crash before they even started to reduce their outstanding assets, and then since the start of 2020 we've pretty much tripled the balance sheet compared to the entire history of the Fed up until that point. National debt is at an all time high. The deficit is at an all time high. Money printing is accelerating rather than slowing down, never mind any talk of it being reversed. The dollar is a sinking ship.
And it's crazy, really crazy, that no one there seems to be panicking at the moment. I used to think we'd see a different global currency denomination other than in USD but that it wouldn't happen in my lifetime. Now I'm not sure anymore. No one (not I) saw this coming. We absolutely don't know, but the notice always says "until further clarification or notice" or some other same meaning crap. Certainly, we should see it as the rate for the foreseeable 8-10 years, if that's how long it took for them to get their act together after the 2009 crash. Something's got to give, poor Biden's got a long stumble ahead. |

Yeah. No exclusivity, no transfereable digital rights, except to the NFT itself. It's highly stupid, and reminds me exactly of what the high-class luxury art world is all about. People paying a lot of money for things they don't understand. Keir Finlow-Bates pointed out on a podcast yesterday and I roughly paraphrase: You're buying a finger pointing to the moon. You can change who owns the finger, but if the moon changes or disappears or moves, the finger is still pointing to that same spot. |

I would hope there is some impact.
Imagine if the US dollar continues to lose value at current or accelerated rates of inflation -- it would take only 4 years to get it to over 10% inflation. Another 4 years and we'll be at 25% inflation.
Surely Bitcoin pricing has to take that into account. Otherwise, it's pointless to keep reaching new ATHs that can't keep up with USD inflation.

You are not burying the banks enough, I mean they operate on fractional reserve banking where they can borrow money even though they do not have anything to make up for it not to mention that they need a lot of paperwork just to work with them. I don't know how they are still doing this kind of debate because it is already pointless unless they know something that the public doesn't know about bitcoin.
Unless you're a bank in the US or are part of the Federal Reserve system, which discarded (temporarily) fractional reserve last year (yeah, wonderful innit?), in which case you don't even need to hold reserves. They then went on to infinity printing which Biden's still happy to continue. At the same time, NYAG slapped Bitfinex with a fine (or was it a settlement now) for lying about their reserves sheet. |

Thanks guys again for making the reminders plus all that. I did see it and intended to do it last night but glad the games actually start later on the weekend as I forgot about it until now. I changed Loyola to Chicago, why is it I don't see Loyola in any of my selections? Anyway, betslip: https://sportsbet.io/sharebetslip/5d368772-eda1-478c-87d2-4fe22eda2005And yeah ty, don't bother with the table for this one! =) You deserve a break haha. Chicago - Oregon State -> 1 + over Baylor - Villanova -> 1 + under Arkansas- Oral Roberts -> 1 + under Houston - Syracuse -> 1 + under Gonzaga - Creighton -> 1 + over Michigan - Florida -> 2 + under Alabama - UCLA -> 1 + over USC - Oregon -> 2 + over |

All but one parlay is left standing, which is a shame as Senegal and Morocco really ought to have won their matches. I sneaked in a nice rugby 7/1 (super boosted at Sportsbet) last night on a Scotland upset, but was too lazy to come here update. No worries! Today we return to ATP Miami and a small parlay for 100 units at Sportsbet on Tsitsipas, Cilic and Fucsovics to win @3.25. Other odds: 3.10 Women's football's been quite kind so let's parlay them up with a League One Hull win to strengthen their place at the summit. 100 units boosted, insured at Sportsbet on Hull, Genk (w), Standard Femina de Liege, UQ FC and Belgium to WIN @18.70. Other odds: 17.50 Multi Magic is always good with the free 2mbt win if hit: Belgium, Belarus, Ireland, England to WIN @8.40 Bet ID: 605cc54eea6f2533bc3812fa And a kind of weird Estonia hedge heh, sorry. 100 units at Fairlay on Estonia to WIN @11.39. Other odds: 9.80 Total units advantage: 15+ 120+159 = 294 Running advantage after 281 bets: +18,966 (+294)
All-time cumulative: +56,505
Running units after 276 bets (392W|234L): +8,329 (-200) |

Wait, so you're saying the overconfidence is warranted and they're actually right?
Also, you're more likely to have more followers and people agreeing, if you didn't actually advise to hold most of your investment in dollars. Even the people issuing the dollar know it's in for a long and painful period of inflation, and we all know what happens to its value when that happens. It's already happening as it is.

Caught this in time. Hoping for goals from Lincoln, gunning for Championship promotion;) Thanks as usual to the various people doing us a favour of doing up the stats. Clearly, most teams' averages are below 20, so to get above it is difficult enough, which reinforces how the odds are of really good value considering they push at 20 and below. |

Not much joy for me on this start so far. I did pick the Turkey upset but missed out on handicaps (I went for straight underdog wins) against Spain and France... Missed out to big wins there just because it ended 1-1 haha.
Also missed an England correct score boost last night but I would have chosen 4-0 anyway, thought maybe we might get hiccups in the firing line.

Hey, good to hear from you! Sorry for being away for so long. Times were crazy, but things are looking up. I was thinking the same thing. Lets figure out where our little piggy ended up and finish the journey. A physical chain is the last thing we should do right now Best thing would be if the current holder could contact me, so that we can figure out the next steps. @minerjones, if you are currently holding it, feel free to contact me here, or instagram or mail, whatever works best for you Good to hear from you too! Times really were/are crazy and looks to be like that for a long time. Bitcoin, though, doing very well, don't you agree? Still curious to see where piggy landed, indeed, but yeah perhaps given current conditions, physical chain could even be slightly irresponsible (not an expert). You're not thinking of NFT are you?  |
