Almost forgot there was this huge matchup between these 5-1 teams happening tonight.
Just began watching the first quarter coming to an end but the score is quite low so far only 10-3 for the Eagles.
Things should get more interesting later in the second half as Philadelphia seem to always take sometime to get going in their games running up to week 7 of the season so far.
Tua seems to be not fairing to well in passing so we will see if he can get going later in 2nd quarter. As Tyreek Hill is his target for most of their offensive yardage and getting them close enough for their sole field goal.

So you betslip isn't dead yet. They usually turn it up in the second half of their games.
Close loss, they suddenly scored a bunch of touchdowns in the second and third, but when it came to the final quarter, the scoring slowed down because of that unfortunate turnover by Tua.

After that, the Dolphins got broken and failed to convert a first down, forcing a turnover to allow the Eagles to milk the last few minutes of the clock. I was praying the Eagles would've scored another TD as they were in the red zone during those final few minutes, but they chose to play it smart.

Doubling my bankroll was my main target back then if I wanted to walk away with my winnings, but that's only on a lucky day. Some of my sessions always end with me barely breaking even and i'll be doing my best for my bankroll to survive for the upcoming sessions.

If we're talking about a single bet in slots or other games that could give me lucky wins, then it's probably around the 50x-100x. It only takes one decent line of the same symbols for me to stop my session, withdraw everything right away, and do something else to fill my free time.

After a stroke of bad luck in the first round with zero points (excluding the free points), maybe my luck will improve heading into this week's second round.

On a positive note, no tennis questions this round, a much easier Dota H2H question, and no need to wait until the last few hours to submit our answers.  Cheesy

The underdogs covered nicely this week, and i'm lucky to avoid most of the matches after having a nice quick sleep.  Grin

With the Eagles losing last week, i'm starting to think they'll lose in this SNF match, but i'm still hesitating on the Dolphins because the teams they've mostly rolled over are on the mid to low side of the standings.

The over quickly caught my attention and I thought it was too low when these two don't have the best defense to hold one another below 20 or fewer points. Also, the Eagles gave up 30 points twice at home so it should hit again if the Dolphins can keep their offense going like in the previous weeks.

I am eyeing for Talon on this match but they lose the first game. They're on the 2nd map now and KDA are just close to each other. 11-11 TL/Talon. I can't comprehend their heroes if late game-wise because it seems that both of them will be able to push the game into a late one. Luna for TL as their carry and terror blade for Talon as their carry. There's also storm for TL while Zeus for Talon.
Talon did their best in the early game, but it wasn't enough to snowball their lead as TL hunted down Talon's BB several times. Overall, TL drafted very well in both games, countering Morph with Dark Seer and then AA in the second game to shut down the heal and sustain on the side of Talon. After Team Spirit looked shaky in their series against VP, it feels like TL is currently the team to beat in the upper bracket. Then again, we still have two series left, and one of those teams could surprise us like they did during the seeding matches.

@ralle14 Was that MOTD for euro basketball because the score needed to be over 157.5pts. Don't usually bet on that kind of basketball because they have different rules than the NBA&WNBA.

Today's Sportsbet Special is for a league we are all familiar with and that is the Bundesliga!
I have noticed some action being discussed here by @owengtam09 so i am taking a wild guess and going to say they have also noticed the interest in the league and have delivered!
Yes. It was a rare Basketball Champions League MOTD, but both markets didn't hit anyway due to the upset from PAOK.  Tongue

The Dortmund MOTD for today looked decent until I saw the stats for the ATGS player they've picked who only played 7 games for the team. It's best to go as small as possible with this one even with the odds this low Dortmund still has a lot of players who can score goals.

Will you go ahead and provide them all they require from you for account verification, so they can process your withdrawal request, or will you willingly forfeit such amount of money back to the casino on the account that your private information is more expensive than that amount of money you have own from them?

I love to read your thoughts on this.
My answer is the same as most gamblers, and i'll submit my KYC (all levels) to withdraw $70k worth of winnings if it comes down to that or walk away with nothing. Even if it's a new casino, that amount of winnings is always worth a shot when most gamblers win less than that and would try to look for ways to withdraw the money from their account. Casinos would rarely cause inconvenience for their players unless they have to do it for security reasons because i've seen a few casinos willing to delay their transactions only to avoid losses.

Who else finds this requirements from casinos BS?
I used to find it annoying when casinos introduced the requirement back then but I eventually got used to the wagering requirement until it didn't bother me anymore because you'll see most casinos have it as one of their requirements before withdrawing.

It only becomes annoying if the wagering requirement is suddenly higher than 1x because you rarely see a high requirement almost similar to a promo reward.

Worlds swiss stage day 2 is less then 12 hours away and there are some juicy same region rivalry matchups

The draw was held today and most of the matches were same region rivalries drawn against each other,
The fans reactions were quite funny, as they were overjoyed when lpl teams were drawn against each other and shocked when same thing happened to lck teams  Grin
The same thing goes for a few LCS and LEC teams. Each major region will be forced to shed blood against their brethren to go up in the standings.  Tongue

I'm surprised the bookies have BDS and MAD this close when BDS should be the favorites. BDS played well against JDG yesterday, even though they lost, and MAD looked less impressive after losing against Cloud9. I'll take BDS over MAD any day when they're more likely to disappoint again.

Really good choice in your bet for MNF as I was backing the Chargers if I had put in a bet since the match from last week still left me doubting Dak and the Cowboys intentions this season.

So good call on the spread ralle14!
Thanks, I initially doubted the Cowboys as well, but I always remember the Chargers as the team that would do well half the time and struggle against teams that are slightly better than them due to their leaky defense.

We have another close game for today. This should be a win for the Jags if nothing happened last week, but Lawrence got injured. I don't know how he'll perform after the injury but i'm going for the under since both defenses are good enough and it's still the trend for most games.

952  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Question for those who loose too frequently in gambling on: October 19, 2023, 03:58:35 PM
I have often wondered about the people who have lost a lot in gambling and who almost loose in every gambling activity they participate. What is their reason or motivation to continue even after so many losses?
At first, it used to be the winnings, once you start to lose most of your sessions, you'll get desperate to win and even look for the best ways to secure a profit. Now it's all about the entertainment side of gambling as I try to tone down my gambling stakes and prioritize having fun over winnings.

I also saw others mention chasing losses and I have to agree almost every gambler would use that reason maybe once or more because, at some point, you can't always keep taking the hits that the casino throws at you.

Hasn't the fight for a freebet always depended on the highest number of points per week? I think that a freebet winner was always the person who scored the most points in a division? The only thing that has changed in this season is that there won't be that many draws because there are additional rules to handle those draws.
Oh yeah, you're right it's still the same aside for the tiebreaker.

I assumed it would be now based on the overall points instead of the selected questions since I didn't see any questions highlighted with gray like we used to from the previous season.

Hopefully, one of them would be the dota question since it's the only one i'm most confident on.  Wink

League of legends WORLDS 2023 swiss stage is finally starting tomorrow!

After a long wait there are 8 Best of 1's scheduled tomorrow,  there are some pretty one sided matchups as expected.

Personally im liking the odds on MAD  lions, DPlus kia  and KT rolster as i dont think mad or KT should be 2+ odds
I agree with the MAD and KT Rolster leans. Both have good odds when they're on the same level as their opponents and might depend on the side that gets the better picks.

IMO, the DK match is a toss-up because we already saw how well G2 held up against the best LCK and LPL teams during the MSI. DK should win, but I wouldn't count out G2 if they can get a good draft going.

The new table with the logo looks amazing, and now i'm encouraged to submit my logo right away (will do it later today or tomorrow).  Cheesy

You still have something to fight for this week. It's a freebet reward that goes to the best in a division  every week. I know that three points are what we all aim for every week, but a freebet is also a good bonus.
That's true. I might have a good chance now that the fight for the free bets depends on the highest points per week instead of the few h2h questions.
956  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sports bets or in-house games, which is best for the weekend. on: October 18, 2023, 04:25:18 PM
The in-house games are the best since you mentioned that you'll spend time with your family. I'd assume this is the safer option when most casino games are enjoyable enough, and the entertainment level only increases as you play with someone you know. Sports betting could've been my pick if you're alone because it could be a hit or miss with your family when some of them don't find the same enjoyment from watching sports.

It is tough to have the best of both worlds, but that comes down to what you prefer when both are almost at the same level, with sports betting probably coming out slightly ahead.
957  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sportsbet.io Betting discussion thread rev on: October 18, 2023, 03:47:15 PM
Only less than an hour left before today's MOTD gets taken down. Both are good predictions, but I took the first one because PAOK doesn't have a good form heading into this match and could slow down on the scoring and potentially ruining the over if it becomes a blowout. Also, Galatasaray plays at home and with a slightly better form than their opponent (only losing on the road).



Edit: Quick loss, PAOK are on fire with their shooting going for 10/13 and 5/5 on threes to win the first quarter.

I'm surprised to see this many late submissions, including my opponent, as I already see my points up by three. I guess that's it for me this week, it's not a win that I expected, but i'll take the free three points.  Tongue

I thought we'd only get a few late submissions since it's the start of the season, but thirteen is a lot of free wins.  Shocked
959  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🕹️ Esports 🎮 Prediction & Discussion Thread on: October 18, 2023, 12:52:24 AM
We can fairly say that Nouns are the dark horses of TI right ? With that high pace Dota 2 they play , I won't be surprised if a lot of teams will face difficulties playing against them and Azure might be the first victim of them on main stage.
It's too early to say when they only surprised us with that one upset so far, and Azure Ray is still a solid team with veteran players who've been to TI several times.

LGD vs 9pandas should be the game of the day where normally we get 3 maps and LGD as winner.

Liquid vs Talon ...this game I think will give us one of the finalist as both teams are playing amazingly so far.  Cool
On paper, LGD should win, but it still depends because 9Pandas showed in the second phase they can play well, and their chances of beating LGD should be higher when they've already done it before during the Riyadh Masters.

I agree the Talon series will be a banger, but it sucks that one of them will be knocked down early in the playoffs.
960  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do your parents know about your gambling habit ? on: October 18, 2023, 12:15:31 AM
If we're specifically talking about online gambling, they most likely don't know because my parents are the type to worry about even the little things. It'll only give them an unnecessary problem to worry about and I remember answering a similar question here. Even though they also gamble, I still think it's better to keep this to myself because they're the kind of parents who would be overprotective when they find out you're doing something harmful like gambling.
