881  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Canelo Alvarez vs Jermall Charlo Super Middleweight (September 16) on: June 22, 2023, 01:33:08 PM

But since Charlo agreed to fight Canelo in his return, I would like to think that there is a good plan behind this move because even this is a good paycheck for him after 2 years outside the ring, his record is also on the line. Anyway, still an exciting event so far.

I am impressed with his decision. He doesn't seem to place too much importance on maintaining his undefeated record, especially considering the possibility of Canelo defeating him. This is a significant opportunity for Charlo, as fighting Canelo would undoubtedly generate substantial pay-per-view subscriptions and could be a defining moment in his career. While many may assume Canelo will easily win this fight given his dominance in the division, I prefer to entertain the possibility of a different outcome.
882  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Referral bonuses are waste of time on: June 22, 2023, 12:57:47 PM
Most times I don't have to blame the casinos because most gamblers who go for this bonuses don't even have the patience to read the terms and conditions before going for it because if they do, then they would have understood  that it wasn't going to be an easy task.
Nevertheless, I would prefer that the casinos make this terms very fair and not extremely against  the player.
We can't blame the casino but must check what we've done to know what happened. If a gambler wants to get a bonus from an affiliate, they really have to be able to convince people that the casino is good and can be a place to gamble. However, people think that sharing affiliate links can bring them a lot of bonuses but that's not the case. They can get a lot of bonuses if people who join under them use big money to gamble so the bonus will also be big. But if they don't, they won't get a big bonus or even get anything.

Mind you, there are still many individuals who earn a decent income by sharing affiliate links. In fact, it's considered a safer way to make money in gambling because you don't have to gamble yourself to earn money. Instead, you simply need to persuade people to gamble and sign up using the link you provide.

It will be more successful if you have a YouTube channel or any social media platform where you can attract your followers to gamble.
883  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Joshua Franco vs Kazuto Ioka WBA World Superfly (June 24) on: June 21, 2023, 12:07:17 PM
This is the highlight of their first fight https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXMaJq64C6o both fighters have the same style, they love to engage and mix it up the kind of fight that you want to see in a boxing match,  the match is very close going to the championship rounds and based on the highlights it was Franco dominating the championship rounds, he should have won the fight because he is the one more impressive in the last two rounds.
I didn't know it was already a rematch. I watched the highlights, and now I can say that both fighters have a chance to win. However, the 'home court' advantage makes it likely that Kazuto Ioka will have the upper hand again. So, Joshua Franco is right - he needs to look for a knockout if he wants to ensure a win.

Although I voted for Ioka, I do enjoy seeing the visitor win the fight. Smiley
884  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: June 21, 2023, 11:47:01 AM
But still its good to watch how this prospected number one pick will perform since many expect that he can dominate NBA since he is called as generational talent.

He won't be playing as the center, I guess, as that would most likely increase his chances of getting injured. Wemby will be the number 1, and I'm certain that the team, the Spurs, will prioritize his protection. Considering how Coach Pop nurtures his players, I expect Wemby to become one of the greatest players in the NBA in the future given his gift, you know he is a number 1 pick for a reason.
885  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gender in Gambling [differences between Women and Men in Gambling] on: June 19, 2023, 12:02:53 PM
I also think that gender has nothing to do with it , I have always seen that some of the people who play the most are men and there are very few Women , but I think that there are some women who want to play but are ashamed that they look at casinos, because people will always think that if they are in a casino they are people who are addicted and Women always take care of that type of comment, so the ideal solution for them is online casinos, that's why everything is There is always a large presence of women in casinos, the only thing is that these statistics are difficult to obtain , only that the casinos can Provide them.

I'd say that responsible women don't gamble a reason why we often just see men on the casinos while women are left home or working hard. And some reason is that they are not suitable in this place as people/gamblers will look down on them. So whether the casino welcomes them but it is somewhat not looking good seeing women on the table gambling, unless they are just watching or with someone who gambles.
I think women should have to consider not getting involved in gambling, and letting their husbands or partner do that instead.
886  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can anyone Predict What's going on crypto market? on: June 19, 2023, 11:07:22 AM
We all know that it is impossible to predict the future of the crypto market. However, according to the current world economy, the market is still in a good position. Still, who knows if there is even any news or when this market will turn around again. According to the economy going down a bit too slowly can new investments be made at the moment.

The people thqt can predict the market very well are the traders that know the major trend of the market. It is not every traders that can do this since this is a matter of skill and how professional a trader can be. There are market analyst that do deal with the market analysis. There are different traders in the market, some are analyst, signal oriented users while others predict the market that is based on guesses. If we know how to go about market trend, we should be aware of some of the repeative events that is always taking place in the market that make experienced traders to take good advantage of it utilizing it for there own gain.
I give respect to the traders who make their speculations about the future for we know that they are more keen about the market situation and the events that happen around them (economic changes). But there is one thing that I was sure of, nobody can say it right, yes it is all just speculation. However, we believe that Bitcoin adoption is increasing as well as the investment demand we could think that Bitcoin will be more valuable in the future. And the 4-year cycle probably stays, we are still going to experience the dump and pump.
887  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: The truth about investment (bitcoins) on: June 19, 2023, 10:45:30 AM
Investing in cryptocurrency has become a major reason behind many holders in the Crypto space , this is an undoubted reality. We all know that bitcoins has its various usecases but 80% of holders are profit driven. To me, I have come to understand that every holder cannot become rich at thesame time because their is no free money anywhere, when one user gets enough base on its smartness and well calculated strategy, another holder become a victim. This is something that happens
In every other business. So the fact is that , success in investment is directly linked to smartness. 

Just to draw the conclusion that Bitcoin investment is not for everyone. Because investing in Bitcoin is not just we buy this and then holding, we also have to be more strategic and learn how to analyze the market. As you have noticed, some got rich and some got also fail and this is because of different ways of investing I believe that those people who fail and lose their money in Bitcoin are those who never know what they are doing. A lot of people are having this situation and guess what, they always complain about the volatility of the market rather than adjust and adopt to the situation.
888  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you find it offensive to be referred to as an addicted gambler? on: June 19, 2023, 04:45:41 AM
Many people find it difficult to accept who they are and the bad habits that they have, accepting a habit is the first step that will determine if any help offered to you will work. As a gambler, will you find it offensive if you are referred to as a gambling addict? will you easily accept it or try to give excuses like some other people do, saying that they are not addicted to gambling when the signs are clearly there. Do you think identifying as an addicted gambler will make people stereotype you. The answer is different for every gambler here.
Being called an addict is somewhat offensive to me and I should stop someone saying that to me. Because I was into gambling just for fun, not I was chasing to win that is why being called a gambling addict is not suitable for some gamblers.
Addiction - is somewhat like you can't control yourself and in your mind is to gamble every day. Yes, it is different when you are professional gambler, we know how to balance lifestyle and so this gambling time.
889  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you like Meme Coins (Pepes project)? on: June 18, 2023, 09:37:55 PM
I've visited the website you mentioned, everything sounds good. I don't understand why this project named "pepverse" as its different from Pepe. It sounds like, founder don't want to work for their project but just named after pepe coin for having cheap attention? If any project has real Concept then it should be presented as it is. Using others name, hype doesn’t make any project successful. Now pepe is sinking, so i think pepverse Won't be supported by invertor anymore.
They only use market trends to reach investors without any real product. No matter how much they say they are the original and new team, no one will believe it. Because a team that cannot come up with a new concept is a professional team. They are like thousands of projects that have come to the market and then disappeared from the market after fooling investors. So it is important for investors to know about any project before running behind it with the market trend.
Perhaps, they are copycats and a clone, we can't expect originality from these meme coins. Yes, no matter what they will say and promise good things and success of their project, they will still end up failing because nobody will buy their project. We'd see a lot of people joining the hyped with these meme coins these days and I don't know if they already know what awaits them.

It was not just knowing the people behind a particular project but also must know the purpose of this creation because many developers used other identities in order to look trusted but behind it, it was scammers.
890  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever felt remorse after gambling? on: June 18, 2023, 11:30:46 AM
Yeah I felt remorse when I was gamble to earn money, but I learn to accept losses and find the enjoyment through gambling, I never felt remorse after gambling anymore. It's all about your mindset, someone who gamble without looking to earn money will not mad or sad when if they lose. Remember, gamble isn't for everyone especially people who still earn less than their monthly needs.
Disappointments and regrets/remorse, I indeed feel those things and sometimes it happens to me. Why? Because the moment that I gamble, I'm already expecting to win and very unfortunate that it never ends like that where losses are gonna happen even if we don't like it. That is why I've practiced stopping thinking about winning and imagining it and rather thinking that I was enjoying this so it never hurts me more but less pain. It is accepted that it was hard to get lucky in gambling rather than being too unlucky that's why we often lose than bring home the jackpot prize. 
891  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Stop stressing kids with bitcoin on: June 18, 2023, 10:57:41 AM
Kids should be given their space. If we were specific about the age group, it'll be better whether the kids can be taught about bitcoin or not. Even the educated people who have got used to technology find it hard to understand bitcoin. How does the kids understand about bitcoin, it is really tedious process. Teaching things at the right age will be beneficial and easy understanding than early teaching. So, it is good to let kids enjoy their childhood than forcing them towards something that is not for them.
It was a big challenge to teach them and it was not just on our part but also on their side as well.
Of course, it was good at their young age they will know about Bitcoin and its key role in the crypto space. But encouraging them to think bigger about investing, seems not the appropriate time. Yes, it should be done at the right age and that is when they are capable enough to make decisions on their own. It should not be forced, learning can be easy when they are ready and interested about that stuff.
892  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: June 18, 2023, 06:27:23 AM
The suspension almost certainly means that Morant will not be eligible for any end-of-season awards in 2024, such as MVP and All-NBA. Under the new Collective Bargaining Agreement that goes into effect July 1, a player must appear in 65 games (with limited exceptions) to be eligible for awards.

I know it could have been worse, but this is significant enough, however If the Grizzlies can survive and be a good position for those 25 games, then it could be a blessing in disguise for them having the best player heavily refreshed with 25 games gone already could put them in better spot for a potential post season run.
I hope the team can stay composed despite what has happened. In fact, I believe this is a significant challenge for Ja Morant and the team. It will be crucial to keep the core of the team intact in the face of these circumstances. The blame should be put entirely on Ja Morant. When the leader of a team makes a silly mistake, it can certainly have an impact on the entire team. Nevertheless, I have a feeling that Morant may not remain with the team for long if the team does not perform anymore based on expectation.
893  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: When Placing A Trade, How Long Does It Take For The Order To Be Filled? on: June 17, 2023, 09:46:58 PM
I have a Coinbase account.
I Buy Bitcoin hoping that it will go up.
It goes up and I would like to close the trade.
I open the order and the only option I have is to "Cancel Order."
I'm assuming it's because the order has not yet been filled.
Once the order is filled I will be able to close the trade.

It's been 30 minutes and the order has not yet been filled. So I canceled the order.
How long does it take for an order to be filled?
It actually depends on the market situation and the price set. Of course, we can't expect to have it filled when the volume is low and the price is moving slowly while we are setting the price too high. We have to consider that trading is also a competition as we are not the only person who is trading and wanted to get filled with our order. For if we are selling, the cheaper price offered will get too fast but if we are also buying, the higher offer will then easily get filled.
894  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue | WBC & WBO 122 lbs bout | July 25 on: June 17, 2023, 02:30:10 PM

Just think of this, Inoue fought Donaire twice but could not even give Casimero a chance to fight him.

Easy money for Bob Arum, lesser risk with high rewards that at stake, Donaire is more popular than Casimero. We all know that,
the international fans covered a widespread for making huge amounts of money.

But, looking also at that point, if Inoue is really hunger in challenging rising stars like him, it's better to take Casimero, both on their primes
and the fame and achievements of whoever will win value a lot more since fans do love fighters without a fear.

Though we never know what fate will be, maybe chances of seeing them just like Mayweather and Pacquiao will happen along the way.

Your explanation is on point. Donaire is indeed more popular compared to Casimero, and he is no longer in his prime, which is why Top Rank was able to easily arrange the fight. Defeating a popular fighter like Donaire would also make Inoue more popular, ultimately benefiting the promoter and increasing Inoue's value in the world of boxing.

However, I am optimistic that the time will come when they will still face each other, with Casimero as the challenger and Inoue as the defending champion. Hopefully, this will happen by next year, as it wouldn't be ideal to see a prime Inoue fighting Casimero, who is no longer in his prime.
895  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022–23 PBA Commissioner's Cup on: June 17, 2023, 02:04:22 PM

Good pick indeed hehe. NorthPort won by just six points. I saw the box score and found out that in the second quarter, Ginebra only manage to score 9 points versus the 32 points of NorthPort, that's the turning point of the game.

Capital or bankroll (whatever they called it) is now at 5,505 Php, hope this will be doubled on the end of the PBA On tour. BTW, when will these tune-up games end, anybody had an idea?



Congratulations on your win! However, I'm just curious about the betslip you shared. I'm not familiar with it. Would you mind sharing which sportsbook you are using? It displays in pesos, and I would love to try it as well.
896  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: is right time for investment ? on: June 17, 2023, 01:01:44 PM
Well, just noticed that most of the new projects are certainly looking good and promising. That was a trick to gain attention and attract investors, in fact, they are actually selling their product because nobody will get interested if they already looked scammy.

So asking if this is a good investment. Until a certain project doesn't show a progressive performance, I would never say it was worth investing in. Choosing a project to invest in is not just about popularity but must have a use case.
897  Economy / Speculation / Re: The low support level may still be tested during 2023. on: June 16, 2023, 09:56:21 PM
I really wouldn't be surprised or disappointed if bitcoin price tests the low support below $20k again in 2023 (but I'm sure it won't). Even though bitcoin is still trading above $24k at the moment, the possibility of a drop cannot be ignored. I don't think prices will hold well over the next few months, so of course I need to set up a budget to plan my purchases and build a strong portfolio.

Don't panic, do some analysis and collect some bitcoins if you have more budget. I will be doing this for the rest of the year and hope it will benefit me for years to come. Don't sell at loss, that's good advice for anyone holding it so far.
Despite the SEC issue between this known exchange Binance, I was not thinking that it becomes a reason for Bitcoin's price to fall to $20k (again). This situation only give a huge impact on Binance and BNB, with less effect on the entire market. Meaning, Bitcoin prices will fall but not to the extent that they drop badly. We don't need to believe those FUDs saying huge dump, will it does during the bear season but because of the said issue. So, I still hold and probably have to buy more when dumpers sell their coins at a cheap price.
898  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: SEC lawsuit caused massive market crash on: June 16, 2023, 09:39:45 PM
So in this kind of opportunity, we should really take advantage of it by buying and then maybe we can continue doing it thru DCA if your goal is long term. And obviously the best time to sell and take home profits is during the next bull run.
Many people have advised everyone about it, but there is great doubt that altcoins are the asset they should choose. Experienced investors with big budgets will accumulate assets when the market crashes due to FUD, but most others will ignore them and are instead willing to wait for another downturn. They will be too late because in the end expectations are not met after the market recovers the same way every price dump.

Well, we can't force small players to act like whales and buy more Bitcoin. Because investing should be placed at the right time and it should be our will to do it as forcing ourselves when we are in doubt will end up in regrets and blaming, better to wait until we really have the courage to do it to avoid the undesirable end. With these FUDs circulating on the internet it makes people worry about the future of crypto and their mind is full of worries and negativity, and to give trust is very hard for them.
899  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Nonito Donaire vs Alejandro Santiago for WBC bantamweight title on: June 16, 2023, 11:42:40 AM
We all know that he is not getting any younger, so training hard and timing should be just perfect for him before the fight.

I doubt a hard training will take place. More probably, he just needs to maintain his good shape and try to achieve the very best condition he can get until the weigh-in. Hard training isn't a good way to condition Donaire at this point. He will surely be doing his usual routine operation of training every single day.

His experience will tell him what's the best strategy to execute in the fight. He's done with the hard training and no need to undergo that.

Not saying Nonito should just relax. I'm saying what should be effective way is, proper mind conditioning while doing light workouts e.g daily jog etc.

That's their basic job – to stay in condition so they can fight at 100% during the fight night. Donaire is not new to the world of boxing; he has already won multiple championships, so we can expect that he will not get careless with his conditioning. Additionally, we can consider his age as a factor. Hard training may not be advisable for someone his age, but what's important is that he trains the right way, so he can execute the game plan effectively during the fight.

Who among the bettors is brave enough to take the moneyline odds?

I didn't bet on the game, but by the looks of it, it seems like DYIP has a decent chance of winning now as they are leading the game. It's already the 3rd quarter, and there is still plenty of time left, so there's no assurance as to which team will win. However, if you happened to bet on the underdog, I'm certain you're feeling positive now.

DYIP indeed won the game dominantly with a score of 110-96.

It was a profitable night for the bettors who took the risk and placed their money on the DYIP's moneyline odds. This PBA tour has been quite predictable, favoring the underdog. Typically, even if the underdog loses, they often manage to cover the point spread, and if they win, bettors enjoy a substantial return. In summary, betting on the underdog has proven to be profitable during this tour.
