@danherbias07, congrats, nice timing for the live betting.
You got great odds for Houston Rockets and Boston Celtics, didn't know they were down huge because I didn't see the game.
Lebron is still consistent, scored 41 huge points but it's not enough to win.
A great timing indeed especially with the Lakers, though there's really a controversial call from that last attack of LeBron it should be a potential win for the Lakers as we all see from the replay that Tatum really reach LeBron's arm. A clear foul but danherbias07 was too lucky as the ref didn't change the call and they move it to an OT where Boston dominated the game and snatch that home win from the Lakers. Congrats! There's no need to change the call because it's a non call, they can only change a call after a challenge if it's a foul IMO. Anyway, let's move forward, the controversy will stay because NBA is a controversial league, this is not the first time it happened actually. Let's just trust that the Lakers will win in their next game, so get ready with our bets. Part of me is agreeing with you about that but the other part of me isn't because these refs should still be careful about their calls because it could cost some team their lost and it will be unfair, so, should we always wait for someone who will challenge the call and let the refs slide by the mistakes they've commit. Although, this is not the 1st time, it's still time for these refs to get penalties for their mistakes, so that they will be pressured to be the best they can be. Other than that, that call cost me too  If I'm not mistaken, the ML that time was more than 3.20 |

There's always been talks and intrigue about these 2 teams since the Mavs made an upset and knocked the Suns out in the playoffs in 2021. It seems like some Phoenix fans and maybe even Booker himself hasn't moved on yet.
That's why when these two teams meet again early in the season and the Suns won it after a big comeback, the celebration is like they truly got revenge on the Mavericks lol. They should really be bitter in their last year's playoffs exit as just imagined having the best record in the NBA and up by 2 wins in the playoffs against the Mavericks but still choking and losing it. And the worst, they allow the Mavericks to give them as much as 46 points behind, a literal choke. I hope though that they will meet again in this year's playoffs to continue their rivalry, with no injuries and in a healthy lineup. But this lost though, I mean no Luka but still the Dallas were able to escape and get that needed win against their rival. So this could be another huge lost for them mentally and it's worst for them. I wonder what Luka is saying at the back when he saw that his team won against the Suns without him. Well, the Suns don't have Booker as well. Since he got injured, the Suns played not that good. Well, they got a 4 game winning streak before that lost and that shows a sign of adjustments, but still, many are expecting that the Suns will be the same team as they are 2 years ago when they are at the top of the standings. Now they are 25-25 and currently 9th in the league. Nowhere near the expectation of their fans and other people who have high expectations to them. Will they enter the playoffs? Yes for sure. The question now is, where they will land. The worst thing that can happen to them is if they will end up at the play-in tournament. I really doubt their presence if they can have an appearance in the playoffs because they won't get that far because they are heavily relying on Devin Booker alone, point god can't lift the team anymore if he can't give his power pass to someone who is reliable to shoot anymore. Moreover, the Jazz, Thunder, Blazers and Lakers might force their way too. So if CP3 and Booker will get injured again in the precious times then it's a no go for them for sure. Most likely that the Suns has reach it's peaked with CP3 and Booker and the rest, like Ayton. So now they are starting to crumble and struggle with their current roster, they are no longer in their primes, and the NBA has catch up with them. And the injuries too to CP3 and Booker could be a factor as well. Most likely they could make the playoff, but again, facing a difficult team in the first round, they might choke again. That's right, it's seems to me that their path now has been predicted already because they are already showing some bad signs that their team can't make that far enough anymore and it's either they will choke in the 1st round of the playoffs or they won't get past the qualifiers or even play-in tournament. It's like the whole league has gave some time to study about them last season because they got a good record but in the end, they choke and gave the franchise an embarrassment after having a good run. |

We already know Bob Arum and I'm quite sure that there will be a rematch clause in this fight because even if they are just the challenger, it's still risky on their side because the reputation and value will be heavily affected. Inoue might remain as the #1 contender but a loss is a loss and he will need to prove his name again as it's also the only way towards the top.
Let's say there is no clause about the rematch. It will still depend on the champs camp to decide if it should happen. I mean, what if Stephen Fulton wins and he felt like there's a chance for Inoue to defeat him on the next one? They would rather let him work his way up by defeating some of the higher contenders who are also asking for a chance at a title match than a rematch so they could prepare more and learn his movements while he is trying to go back up. I do believe that even if Inoue loses this fight it will mark a great surprise to the champion that will affect the decision for a rematch. They might say no and protect the title, making a reason of "get in line, you are already defeated". And let's say as well that there's no clause, but what if the opposite thing happens where Fulton was defeated? And they start to make another discussion again so that a rematch will happen, but what if Inoue's camp won't agree? They can't chase them if they won't agree because a clause wasn't written on their contract, and they will be left sorrowful because Inoue's camp is moving-on towards another belt holder. A rematch clause will be helpful not just for Inoue's camp, it's a two-way road and the ones who will benefit it the most is the camp who possess the belts because they can still have another shot at their title that was once theirs and it's their as well to lessen the risk. |

Your successes over the past five years: How well have you managed to increase the balance on your account during this time? Or have you lost everything? Tell me your story.
It's not just cryptocurrency that unites us all. We all became different after we learned about her, and went deeper into her knowledge. And now, even if someone is not very lucky to increase their deposit, then you probably have accumulated experience, and you can share it.
I’ve had it all, losses and winnings that made me more experienced in trading. And with those past 5 years, my experiences in trading also created a better version of me not only in the side of crypto, but in all aspects in life. Though I won’t say my balance has increased a lot because there are fair share of losses too, but I think my accumulated experiences in crypto trading are worth more than any profits in trading. |

This is a job well done; your kindness is acknowledged, and it is something that some people here are capable of. I wish you luck and hope you can continue the good work you've started.
I believe that people in that community will now take Bitcoin very seriously, even if some of them still believe Bitcoin is a scam, because they can now see the results of Bitcoin investment.
This proves that bitcoin is legit and there is no traces of scam so people should start changing their negative perception about bitcoin. And after OP finally reveal that bitcoin is giving him huge profits which enable him to help and extend his assistance, then this will serve as an eye opener too that they should start investing in bitcoin rather than focusing on fiat alone and see depreciating value in the end. |

No. Bitcoin will not be at the top when it comes to being the top currency. As was stated here again and again, bitcoin does not fit the criteria of being used on a widescale. First, its supply cannot be controlled and has very limited number that can be produced. Second, it's decentralized; its value lies on it being held by a lot of people around the world. Lastly, it's highly volatile, meaning its price will be an issue if ever it's used in world trades. Perhaps it will be the top dog when it comes to investments and that's it, but not the leading currency that nations can use.
Bitcoin is designed to be an alternative currency for fiat and not to compete with it or become the top currency worldwide. Though it could be the top crypto investment, but when it comes to a currency, fiat will always be the official and number 1 currency, and bitcoin is only an alternative. And knowing the fact that bitcoin is decentralized and has high volatility, then people will be confused using it seeing its value is not fixed and is kept on dumping or pumping. |

Japanese is known for being hard worker and due to their history of rise and fall, There government might want people to focus on working alone instead of wasting time on gambling which we all know how this activity affects work force when a person get addicted.
Those gambling that only allowed was games that is not a quick game. Only pachinko is the only quick result game but it’s not allowed to use money as reward. Japan is very disciplined which is why government wants to protect their culture away from addiction.
In every country, there are set of rules that people are obliged to follow, and I can see that gambling is one factor that the government do not allow their citizens to focus on it and eventually become addicted since that will only affect the productivity of a single person. Although there are some exceptions like horse racing and lottery, but maybe the government have seen that it’s not harming the citizens nor affecting their lifestyle. So I don’t see the government being hypocrite in their decision making. |

In my opinion it's very similar. Keeping bitcoins is easier for someone who is already saving money. I've noticed this several times in my own circle of acquaintances. People who fail to save money usually fail to hold onto their bitcoins for long either. I don't think it's random either. Some people are good savers and others have an urge to spend their money as soon as possible. Whether it's fiat money or cryptocurrency.  As long as you practice saving fiat, most likely it will also be effective when it comes to saving bitcoin because both require patience and long term goal. That is why if you find it hard to save money because you end up using it due to unexpected bills or expenses, same case will also happen to saving bitcoin. You will not succeed from it and just like others, you may even buying it a high price and selling it at a lower price, which means you only save at a loss. |

What about Loan scammers in chat .. ?
There are quite a lot of people in casino chat channels... that will ask for small loans and then people will fall for their stories and they will loan them money. Those people use Alt accounts or accounts that they have bought from other people .... and when they receive the money, they will simply cut and run.
These people will also stalk people's social media accounts, when they spot them on other social media platforms. (Telegram / Twitter ...etc)
There are still good samaritans who fall for this type of fraud because their intention is to only help, not knowing that they only end up victims of fraud. This is why never trust anyone on casinos chat especially since most of the members are complete strangers. If you are kind hearted and would mostly fall for sad stories, then stay away from being involved in the chat as you will only feel pity for some scammers and grant their loan request. |

I completely understand you Outhue. There is such a category of people, that either are afraid to take responsibility, or lazy to do research themselves. This is not only in crypto. For example I have personally faced people, who have asked to advice which car to buy, but later, if something breaks in it, the person that helped them to choose that car was responsible for it. Or I was asked to help to choose a laptop. I have suggested either Macbook or Lenovo. The person have said they are expensive and bought cheap Toshiba, that turned into crap after a year. Me and laggy Windows were responsible for users bad experience... Same goes with investment, purchase or taking a decision in something.
Luckily, I have not met people like this that ended up my enemies because I usually tell them if you want to invest in crypto, be responsible to make a thorough research and when you think you are ready enough, you can start investing in a minimal amount. You can look at YouTube as your reference, there are free videos out there about investing. So in this way, I am avoiding myself not to be involved with their own decision. At least if they start losing, I will never be blame for that. |

...and to be honest I'm happy because my neighbors invest in bitcoin just like me...
Actually, the seller in the store acted recklessly, trusting your advice, obviously not understanding the fact that you yourself are new to investing. You should understand that if the price of bitcoin decreases after your recommendation to invest in bitcoin, then you will have to shop in another store, as the seller will consider you to blame for his losses. Both are actually reckless but I understand as both of them are still not experts in bitcoin. However, knowing bitcoin is a volatile and risky investment, it should be well researched and understood first before creating hasty decisions. This is to prevent from blaming other people, so if one wants to invest in bitcoin, then DYOR first before you decide. As one might also believe that bitcoin could be a get-rich-quick scheme, when in fact it will never be. |

Well I can't deny that I would like Thurman to be able to give a big surprise, I know something I would really like, honestly the one who has the advantage here is Spence, and of course they also have a lot to lose if they lose against Thurman, so they don't I think it will only leave him so easy, however Spence is one of those boxers who will not leave anything in the air or leave eggs, he will start with everything from the beginning, I think that because of his style he will seek to make a knockout I don't know what a hunch tells me, that way they will finish sealing their supremacy (if they succeed) otherwise, I think they will be able to put on a good show. Thurman got a big break so he will surely do everything to win on this fight. Regardless of the contract terms here on this fight, doesn't really matter as the important thing here is, he is against a champion. If he win, just imagine the amount of big benefits he will get. He will try to be aggressive here. This is most likely to end up with Spence winning, probably even via knockout. This might actually even turn out an easy fight for him. If I will risk my money, it would be for Spence. But since I won't be betting on this fight, I hope that Thurman will come out with a smooth upset. He can do this. I won't be betting though. It is because the odds for Spence are not worth betting. Although it could end up in a KO victory, Spence has been winning SD and UD's in his last fights. I don't think so, Spence maybe good, a champion and undefeated but the quality of fighter he is facing is class A. I mean he needs to have a good strategy in order to beat Thurman via KO, what I see is, if Spence will win, it could be via decision as he might be busier fighter in this fight. Thurman has a decent record, and he also believe that his career is not over, that's why he came back to prove that he belongs to the champions league. Well, I guess there's only one way to find out who is really more dominant between the Keith and Errol. I can't blame some people if they are siding with Spence because he has been giving some impressive wins lately while Thurman just got out by a long sleep under the radar and just fought 1 boxer before facing a champion like Spence. Not underestimating the two of them but I expect a good fight because both got a decent record. |

This is the role of media in destroying a country's image just because of any incident that happened in that particular country. Same thing happens with Pakistan all the time , bad media coverage and wrong reporting unfact exaggeration makes any country an insecure country to live in .
All countries have their good and bad points and I am sure mexico is not just about drug cartels or criminals there will be uch more than that and for fifa fans there will be much more to explore and experience.
I am from Pakistan and we have been through this situation where we were denied hosting any international cricket match for 10 years because there was a terrorist attack on the Srilanka team in our country. That is now history but the rival countries always hesitate to visit our country and give excuses of that event. This is not right as the security situation is improved over time. I hope Mexico does not face the same unjustice situation which we have been facing for the last many years. This same thing happens in India also that made FIFA to ban India n football federation from participating in football and other similar sports because of what had ensue many years ago. I don't blame anyone for this but this most time could be as a result of insecurity that lead to the rampage causing a serious scene that had lead to sanctions. Oh, I did not know that Fifa Ban Indian football too. They also banned our country, not for security reasons but because they believe that our offices were controlled by third-party. Later on in 2022, this ban was lifted and we had a sign of relief. More details:- FIFA lifts suspension of Pakistan Football FederationBy the way, when we see the progress of our neighboring countries like Saudia Arab, Qatar, Japan, Korea, Iran, etc, we see that both Pakistan and India are left behind in this race of become a strong football nation. It is more than a decade that India has not been participating in football , I'm just noticing that Pakistan have not been participating too . This ban will do them no good at all, it will take them a long time to get used to football because for sometime they have not been competing with other teams. India and Pakistan should participate in fifa world cup and show the world what they are capable of doing and may be these countries turn out to be really good in football . This step is extremely important to promote football in these countries and this will be a treat for their fans. FIFA already lifted their ban towards the Pakistan and gave them a chance to earn their place in the upcoming FIFA World CUP but for the India, unfortunately, their situation hasn't improved as there are still some rumors and some even got a basis that a 3rd party has been continuously watching over the federation and still displaying their influence. Maybe the AIFF should look towards this rumor seriously and solve it if they still want a place in the world cup. |

Sacramento Kings are 3rd in Western Conference! Just let it sink in guys because this is a real achievement from a small team that have been working hard in silence for all this years and finally they are having a great season. This small club really deserves more as we see people are back in the court when team is playing and if we take a look 2 years ago on Sacramento games , we will have saw empty seats over empty seats but it's not the case anymore.
Even if they lost last night , they still scored 127 points without having a great defense game because hey , no one is playing defense anymore this season ...
Aside from the Pelicans which I think will be the "Dark Horse" of the league, the Kings are the ones who I didn't thought that will surprise me. The Kings-Pacers trade that involved Sabonis and Haliburton is the first time that I see both teams benefitted from it. I mean often times, we always see trades where one team is obviously winning while the other one is losing. On this one, both teams benefitted and they are performing better than they was last season. Haliburton is leading the league right now in assists with 10.2 APG while on the other hand, Sabonis is the one who is leading in rebounds with 12.6 RPG. Both teams benefitted from the trade and now Sabonis and Haliburton are playing on their best season currently. The Kings finally after the playoff drought has the change to enter the playoffs this season. With them at the 3rd spot, there is a high chance that they will enter. I just hope that they will perform the same or even better when the all-star game ends because I already saw some teams who played very well before the all-star game and ended up badly and performed awful after. They will be in the playoffs but honestly it's a different story when they are in the playoffs. This team's lack of defense is not something I admire during the playoffs as we know how physical the game in the playoffs. They need to improve their defense first as that's their weakness based on my observation. I like the ball movement, they are like a young Warriors, but the Warriors are a team who have a balance offense and defense. We can't know for sure, I mean, yes, experience do prevails when it comes to playoffs where all games are intense as they can't afford to lose even one game in the whole series because that would risk them to an elimination. But there are times that even a non-experienced team can defeat a team that has been marinated throughout the time but let's see how far can the Kings go on in the post season. |

Furthermore, he is not that behind as well in the rankings at 118 lbs and considering that he was a former reigning champion, he still have every right to call and fight the champions thus he knew that he will still attract audiences around the world and for that, organizers will always agree with him. Just like now, he is getting favored to participate one of Inoue's vacated belts.
No need for any call or push on some negotiations by the Donaire's camp. It was ordered and pre-approved. Nonito Donaire is automatically a mandatory fighter or challenger for the WBC Bantamweight title once Naoya Inoue will moved up. Jason Moloney is ranked 1st behind Inoue in the WBC and Donaire is on the 2nd. Since Inoue left the game at the Bantamweight, that automatically mandate Moloney and Donaire to fight for the title as they ranked 1st and 2nd in the WBC respectively. I don't understand some people on social media stating that Donaire needs to retire now when there's still a big opportunity that he is getting right now even at 40 years of age. If Donaire isn't on the top rankings, I doubt he will still be in the title contender discussion right now. True, the WBC got a strong basis why they put Nonito Donaire up against Jason Moloney for the said vacated belt and it's not just because of some other reasons that isn't related to why Donaire got the chance and not some other boxers down the line. So what if Donaire is already 40 years old? He is still showing some signs that he can still pull a good performance in the ring and his recent loss against Inoue is not the basis that he needed to retire because his time is done. |

And since the fight is lock now, it's time for David to show what he is capable of against Caleb.
Maybe after he won, and calls out Alvarez, we shall see if Canelo will fight him next or go to an easy tune up fight against John Ryder.
Canelo is not that kind of a fighter, he would not go on a easy route, in fact, he tried to move up in weight and fight a champion, so I'm expecting that he will use his time very well and that being said, he will fight the winner of this bout. Canelo is knows the value of his name, and the route that he will go probably if where the money at, we all know this man and he's always getting huge portions of the money. But I'm expecting him to give the winner a chance and face him, a good way to defend his belt and make him still the top fighter from this division. Waiting for the winner of this fight and see if what will be the next update. That's what I thought as well, Canelo is going to fight the winner which I think will be Benavidez. And this fight is more exciting to watch as we haven't seen them fight before, unlike Canelo fighting Plant which we already saw how he dismantled him in round 11 when they met. Benavidez should do his best to win this match though it will be a tough and challenging match for him to face plant. He must show off his real strength so he could possibly face Canelo in the future. I believe that Benavidez still has a lot to prove so it will be a good chance for him to showcase his real capability in the ring. It will be an exciting match and I hope this would happen early this year. David already got skills and I trust that his prowess can take him up to a much higher league where he can own either one of the 4 belts or even became the new undisputed, although, saying this is quite premature for now as he's still up for a tough challenge where he has to beat Caleb Plant. He indeed got to impress the whole boxing industry in this fight because Plant will be his ticket to lock a fight with Canelo. |

I think I’d rather be betting on whether or not this fight takes place. Tommy has ducked Jake so many times now, it seems more like he’s trolling Jake by accepting these fights. If they do fight though, I don’t think Tommy has a chance. I was watching some of his fight videos and he really doesn’t look like a pro fighter. Jake will probably be able to knock him out at which point I think KSI or Nate Diaz would be the next fights to make.
Fair point, and for that, Tommy still has another month to decide if whether he will continue to fight Jake or not. I know that this fight has been inked already but considering Tommy's past decisions towards this fight and Jake Paul in particular, it's not that far that he will make a run again and leave Jake in the air with the thoughts of finally having a bout with Tommy. But in any case, if this fight really pushes through, Jake Paul will eventually defeat Tommy Fury, no doubt. Well it's not 100% confirmed yet but is 99.75% according to John Fury  : https://metro.co.uk/2023/01/19/john-fury-confirms-tommy-fury-will-fight-jake-paul-on-25-february-18134258/We are 99 and three-quarters per cent there and for my money, it is on,’ John Fury told Metro.co.uk via FreeBets.com. ‘We are ready, he is ready we are just waiting now to get the final confirmation and I think they will announce it very soon.
‘We are in camp anyway, we started camp before Christmas, we are in a good place and we are looking forward to it. I know it is two reality TV stars basically, a YouTuber and a TV star. I know people look at it like that but it is great viewing and great entertainment. That is where we are at.
‘Tommy has been working hard in the gym, he has had nine professional fights and done nothing wrong. He has come along nice and steady, learning the game and learning his trade and I’m happy. And I’m happy Jake Paul has shown the minerals to step into the ring with him, a proper boxer. We are looking forward to it.’ Interestingly enough even Tommy's dad isn't calling him a boxer but a 'reality star'. That goes to show that this upcoming fight will just be an another circus for the two reality television star. Tommy's dad indeed used the appropriate labels and how to address Tommy and Jake, and also, people won't stop criticizing this two if they won't face a true boxer and not just someone who does have a huge fan base in the internet. Up to this point, I can't still believe that there's a lot of people out there who are excited for this fight. |

As for this fight, it's done deal already, hopefully we can see a good fight or even upset win from Thurman, who knows.
It's not impossible to happen, Spence has not fought a boxer like Thurman, and although he had one lose he was never been dominated by his opponent in the ring, his loss to Manny Pacquiao was a close one, so I will not count Thurman out, I mean he still has something to prove and he can definitely upset Spence who is the heavy favorite. This fight, it gives us real entertainment as Spence will surely be busy protecting himself and looking for the perfect timing to hurt Thurman. I'm just a little worried about Thurman's weak spot, his body. If it wasn't for Pacquiao's early knockdown, the fight could've been owned by Keith because the judge's score wasn't that huge in gap but unfortunately that wasn't the case as he was surprised by the Philippine legend. So anyway, that's more than enough evidence to believe that Keith truly stand a chance against Spence and that he might be the one who will surprise us this time. |

Wild Lakers win, Grizzlies thought that they are cruising into the game, but the Lakers didn't give up and made defensive stops specially in the last 4 minutes of the game. I think it was just the breaks for them, Dennis with a steal and then the go ahead basket and lead.
Brandon Clarke missing the 2nd free throw that could have tied the game.
So the 11 game winning streak has been put on a stop by the Lakers.
Yes, the Lakers pleasantly surprised us this time, and I think many fans were impressed with their defense in the final minutes of the fourth quarter. By the way, the Lakers were down by 5 points with 1 minute left in the fourth quarter, and the fact that they managed to steal the win in the final seconds was really impressive. So if Schroder, Westbrook, and other teammates fight to win every game like that, the Lakers will still have a chance to make the playoffs. Yeah, LeBron seems like he’s trying his best to carry that team to a few wins. So far they’ve been doing prettt well since the turn of the new year. I’m not sure how long he can keep it up, but with less than a month until he breaks Kareem’s record, you can see he’s on his A game. Hopefully by then Anthony Davis will be back in playing shape and can help LeBron carry the load a bit as they make a playoff run. Some are speculating that LeBron is targeting to break Kareem's record in the 2nd week of February during the Lakers vs Bucks or Thunder game where the Lakers will host the game. That said, LeBron should be consistent in producing not less than 30 points per game. If the leading role players will be consistent enough, I'm quite sure they can handle the upcoming games well and give the team some successive wins as Davis might return also next week. Anthony Davis injury: Lakers star could return next week |

It was said that the key to our success in investing in Bitcoin is to have knowledge about Bitcoin. We should know and understand the technology behind Bitcoin. We must do our own research and just don't rely on hearsay. Bitcoin is a marathon so we should have a long-term perspective. We must know when to buy, when to sell and when to accumulate. We should always be prepared for any volatility of Bitcoin in order for us not to panic sell and be calm when crashes happen. We should always keep ourselves updated about Bitcoin and its regulation since regulation may change from time to time and ignorance about it may incur losses to our Bitcoin portfolio.
Just keep updated about bitcoin and you will never incur losses in the process. And it’s really important that you also have significant experiences investing in bitcoin even initial losses because that will teach you lessons that will help you to be more successful investing in bitcoin. |
