Taking some action with DPC WEU later tonight.

Liquid vs OG. This is obviously Team Liquid's game. They are still perfect in this regions 6-0 and dropping just 1 map. While OG has lost to Nigma endangering their slot for Lima Major in the process.

Tundra Esports vs Gladiators. Tundra's game is quite boring, but they are consistent in winning. The reigning TI champion will probably win over GG.

Team Secret vs Team Nigma. Both teams are fighting to keep their current division and avoid relegation. Though they may be on equal footing but Team Nigma has shown better games lately. Favoring Nigma to win over team Secret at this series.

I am not sure if Nigma is strong enough to beat Entity. Entity is quite strong this season. Entity was able to beat strong teams like Tundra and OG. Even with the performance they had against OG, that might not still be enough to get through Entity. Nigma better have a perfect game to stand a chance against Entity right now.

Though, I think they can beat Team Secret who are still in disarray right now with their new roster. That may be enough to retain their current division.

With the performance that Nigma pulled yesterday against OG, I think they have the chance to retain Division 1. They lose badly on the first map but were able to return the favor to OG on maps 2 and 3. If they can sustain that kind of aggressiveness against Entity and Secret, they will be able to pull wins and retain their current division. Team Secret was able to win their first match, but that was only against ITB. Nigma was able to beat OG which is way better than ITB. I think between Nigma and Team Secret, Nigma will win. A close match but Nigma has the upper hand.

Taking some action on DPC WEU matches later tonight.

Of the 3 matches tonight, I think the games between Tundra and Entity will be the most exciting. OG vs Nigma and ITB vs GG will be boring since OG and GG are way too powerful against their matches. Nigma is performing very poorly this DPC tour and OG can easily beat them. ITB lacks experience to win against GG. Tundra will totally win against Entity but I think entity will still give a good fight.

G2 are just extending their good performance from last year. Monesy is continuously improving and proving to be a good find for the team. With guidance from Niko, this young player will achieve a lot of things in CS. There maybe some missed plays here and there, but they are quick to correct their mistakes.

Navi has been subpar in performance since late last year.  But you cannot always put a good team down. This team will recover and expect good performance from them soon.

Actually, two bets of mine were not sure to hit. It was Boston Celtics since they are missing Marcus Smart and Jazz -5.5.

I am not hitting my parlay in NBA lately. Maybe I would switch to a single bet in the meantime.


I am losing interest in the Grizzlies as well. Ja Morant is acting too much for someone who has not achieved anything yet in the league. They are still a good team just a bit inconsistent and too much talk.

That is actually a good acquisition by the Lakers. They badly need outside shooters since their stars are not consistent in shooting outside shots. At least now, they will have a legitimate threat in the 3-points area. But I do not think this is enough to propel them to a playoff spot. They may need to acquire another role player that can help them.

Detriot Pistons vs Milwaukee Bucks @ 1.17

The Milwaukee Bucks  (29-17) will visit the Detriot Pistons (12-36) tonight at Little Caesars Arena. The Milwaukee Bucks are heavily favorite in this match up and betting ML may not be worth it if not added to a parlay.
Bucks key injuries: Serge Ibaka (personal reasons) out
Pistons key injuries: Marvin Bagley III (hand) out, Killian Hayes (shoulder) questionable, Isaiah Stewart (shoulder) out

Orlando Magic vs Boston Celtics @ 1.32

The Boston Celtics (35-12) will visit the Orlando Magic (17-29) tonight at Amway Center. The Celtics are looking to extend their 9-game winning streak against the Magic. They are the heavy favorite to win this game.
Celtics key injuries: Malcolm Brogdon (personal) out, Marcus Smart(ankle) out, Robert Williams III (knee) questionable
Magic key injuries: Jonathan Isaac (knee) questionable

Utah Jazz (-5.5) @ 1.66 vs Charlotte Hornets

The Utah Jazz (24-25) will host the visiting Charlotte Hornets (13-34) tonight at Vivint Arena. Taking this straight Moneyline is not worth it especially if Ball will not be able to play.
Hornets key injuries: LaMelo Ball (ankle/wrist) questionable, Kelly Oubre Jr (hand) out
Jazz key injuries: Kelly Olynyk (ankle) out

Portland Trail Blazers @ 1.26 vs San Antonio Spurs
Portland Trail Blazers (21-25) will host the visiting San Antonio Spurs (14-32) tonight at Moda Center. The Blazers are coming from a tough loss against the Los Angeles Lakers 121-112. They will be eager to win this game against a tanking Spurs.
Spurs key injuries: Devin Vassell (knee) out

SEA teams do not have the discipline that other top regions have like China, WEU, and EEU. We have good players but, in the game, they sometimes forget their discipline and loses to top teams in another region. Maybe these new teams in the SEA will bring better success against the teams in other regions. I think it was already a long time since we have a successful team from SEA in TI.

Too bad for my parlay, Gaimin Gladiators were able to win the 2nd map thus losing my bet. I was not able to watch the first two maps but on the third map, Team Liquid totally dominated Gaimin Gladiators. Team Liquid is still at the top of the ranking in WEU.

Too bad for your bet with ITB, Team Secret suddenly found their grove and made perfect drafting and execution of their play. They dominated ITB in both maps. I think with this win, Team Secret still have a chance not to be relegated back to Div 2 if they win against Nigma on Friday.

Better luck next time for both of us.


I think they will qualify since top 4 will qualify for major. Their remaining games are against Tundra and ITB. I think they can win against ITB. Unless Entity will be able to beat Tundra, then GG is quite secured with their spot.

Only 3 teams will qualify in major from SEA. Execration and Geek Slate are pretty much secured in their major slots. Talon needs to win their 2 remaining matches and Blacklist to lose 2 games. I think Blacklist can beat both Boom Esports and Team SMG. So, it is very hard for Talon to qualify for now to Major. But we will see how things will turn out.

The Kings are a very young team. I do not expect them to dominate the playoffs but getting there with this young roster is already an achievement. This team needs experience in the playoffs, and it is good that they are getting it. With the right management, this team will be dangerous in the years to come. Just like the Celtics, when Tatum was not so successful in the playoffs as well but the Celtics sticked to their young cores, developed them and now they are reaping the fruits. Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum are now at their peak and ready to take the championship. I think the same can be expected with the Kings if they play their cards right.

Taking some action with DPC WEU later.

OG vs Entity

For me, OG and Entity are almost equal in power. I think this will go the full match and over 2.5 maps.

Team Liquid vs Gladiators

Team Liquid is dominating too much this tour that I am inclined to believe they will not lose a map this tour. So I am betting this game to be under 2.5 maps. Gaming Gladiators are good but Team Liquid is almost perfect in drafting and executing their plays.

Too bad Denver Nuggets were not able to win against the OKC Thunders. Murray has a good shot to tie the game and send it to overtime but it was short. At least you got the Nets bet.

It is all upset to for me. Denver losing, Warriors losing at home, and Memphis losing to the starless Suns. All close ending.

That is "Rainy Days" fund is for. That is money that you save that is only used for unexpected expenses like accidents, hospital bills, or even your refrigerator breaking down. When budgeting your money, you should also consider setting aside funds for this particular reason. So, when the need arises, you are still prepared because you have money for it. That is the only way I know you can deal with unexpected expenses.

This is actually good advice already and coming from a newbie like you, that means you have a sound understanding of how cryptocurrency is working. Good for you.

Generally, it is bad to take a loan to invest on something. It is best if you use money that you have saved for that purpose to invest in anything. There are just too many downsides on using loan money for investment.

Another is, I am thinking that he still does not have money, so while saving, he should this time to invest in learning how cryptocurrency works and find out if it is really for him. Not everyone can understand how it works and accept the risk that entails in investing bitcoin. If he has to ask others whether to invest or not, that means he is not prepared for it. He may blame the friend who advised him to invest if the investment fails. It is best if he decides it for himself.

Here is my bet for matches later at Blast Premier

G2 Esports @ 1.77 vs Natus Vincere

Personally, I think both teams are shaky and could take the match. So I am going to bet on the G2 at this time since I think they are better than Navi at this point.

Big vs Ninjas in Pajamas @ 1.58

NiP is heavily favored in this match, and I agree. Just basing my bet on rankings at this point since this is a new season. Will adjust bets later when I see how teams have adjusted this season.

Phoenix Suns vs Memphis Grizzlies @ 1.24

The Memphis Grizzlies (31-14) will visit the Phoenix Suns (23-24) tonigth at Footprint Center. The Grizzlies should win this game since the Phoenix Suns is riddled with injuries right now.
Suns key injuries: Cameron Payne (foot) out, Chris Paul (hip) out, Landry Shamet (foot) out,, Deandre Ayton (illness) out
Grizzlies key injuries: Danny Green (knee) out

Denver Nuggets @ 1.46 vs Oklahoma City Thunder
The Denver Nuggets (33-13) will host the visiting Oklahoma City Thunder (22-24) tonight at Ball Arena. The Nuggets should easily win against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Oklahoma City key injuries: Robinson-Earl (ankle) out
Denver key injuries: Bones Hyland (finger) questionable, Nikola Jokic (hamstring) questionable, Jamal Murray (hip) questionable

Golden State Warriors @ 1.34 vs Brooklyn Nets
The Brooklyn Nets (28-17) will visit the Golden State Warriors (23-23) tonight at Chase Center. Without Kevin Durant on the line up of Brooklyn Nets and the Golden State Warriors at home, this is a Warriors game.
Nets key injuries: Kevin Durant (knee) out
Warriors key injuries: Andre Iguodala (hip) out, Anthony Lamb (foot) questionable, James Wiseman (ankle) out

That is too bad though, they will be missing a lot of DPC tournaments relegated to Division 2. And they cannot come back to DIV 1 until the second tour. And you are right, there are strong teams  now in division 2 that can beat Div 1 teams. So, if Team Spirit cannot find a suitable replacement for BOOM (if they decide to replace him), they will not be able to move up to Div 1. If this continues, we might see them again in Last Chance Qualifier. It is just a waste that they let go of Nisha when they are still completely good with their roster. Just look at Team Liquid. They lost Matu but Nisha is doing really well replacing him. They are continuing their streak from their run in TI last season and seem to be stronger. That should have been Team Secret if they kept their roster last season.

That will hurt Northport a lot. Robert Bollick has been a steady source of offense to the Northport. He has been carrying this team since he joined them. But we cannot blame PBA superstars for transferring to leagues abroad since the pay is substantially higher than what PBA can offer. Their time as basketball players is just limited and if they can get more benefits financially somewhere else, we cannot stop them from going abroad.


That will attract viewers. I wonder how much the Zamboanga Valientes are paying him. He is old but he still can play and be competitive, especially in Philippines basketball.
