Tank had huge advantage in this game, because he had good stamina and people with huge stamina will win the game. Davis had good stamina and strength in recent days. So most gamblers prefer Davis to make their betting rather than Ryan. Davis game can knock out the opponent Ryan. So Ryan should improve their game in short run, being a good fan of Ryan. It’s my opinion towards him.The match between Davis and Garcia was very different one. David had the best match against Ryan in previous seasons was great. David had more will power then a Ryan, some people support Ryan because of his old matches. We need to accept the truth of current match situation, Ryan stamina for now is very low.

Yes, I understand that stamina is really one of the few factors why boxers got some advantage over, but I think in this case that we have now, stamina will be needed of course but it's not as needed like the other fights we witnessed because Ryan Garcia and Tank Davis are both a KO specialist. Therefore, it will be a battle of who will land that lethal punch first and will be a battle of who got a better defense, and not a battle of survival until the end of 12th round.

Now if Casimero will lose this one, there's no need for him to continue his career anymore as I think it's already safe to assume that he can't get big fights because he just lost this bout. Just in-case though.

I agree, a loss in this fight will definitely put a stain on Casimero's career and name, and I bet he will have a hard time having some future fights ahead of him if he will be defeated against an unknown boxer. If that happens, Nghitumbwa will be the one who will proceed as defeating Casimero will surely give a lot of attention including the fights.

Moreover, Casimero should just retire because he's not that young anymore to start at the bottom of the food chain again and nobody will be interested on fighting him anymore as fighting him won't give them the benefits that they wanted as Casimero will be just another somebody in the industry if that happens.

But on the bright side, I'm sure that John Riel Casimero won't let that happen.
It is incredible how the career of a boxer can change so quickly, and what makes this even weirder is that Casimero is in this situation not by losing a few fights in a row but simply because of his own choices outside the ring, and a defeat now will without a doubt cause him such a setback that it is difficult to believe he will be able to recover, fortunately for him he is still a talented boxer and I think he has what is needed to get the win this time around.

I believe that he still in the upper hand here as we know his capability and how the way he showcases his talent once he already inside the ring, but like what you have said he's not in this situation because of his choice and not because he failed to protect his belts during his days from the lower division, he went up to prove something and in order to achieve that goal he needs to keep winning and not just as simple win but to win it with a convincing way to hype him and to attract more promoters and fans to bring him to the place that will give him the opportunities to challenge the champion.


Yes, he was just unfortunate in his previous division because he caught a lot of obstacles that made his career more challenging. Good thing is that the issue was his weight and not his skills, so now that the issue were eliminated, I know Casimero will not rest until he can face the top dogs in this division. He pretty much knew that in this situation, he can't afford to make mistakes anymore especially that he is still transitioning and climbing through the ranks as a defeat will likely get him back square one again.

Looking forward in seeing him make a statement especially in this fight because he will be fighting with his fellow kababayans on his back as this fight will happen in Philippines.

Knicks!!

Just going to say this, jalen brunsen can't be covered in this series.  The only way clevland can cover him is with this double.  He will bully Garland and Mitchell all series long.  Then they threw osman on him lol.  Guaranteed they double him next game.  Knicks will be dependent on the 2nd 3rd and 4th guys hitting open shots.  No way they let JB cook them all series long.  Gonna be a good one.
Knicks! Indeed!  Grin They are all over the trend today. They are also the only upset that happened today when we talk about homecourt advantage basis.

I love the game in Sacramento though. Light the Beam!
De'Aaron Fox playoff debut with an awesome 38 points. I love his humble answers during the post-game interview. He always gives credit to the Kings' bench saying they helped ignite the fire that gave them a run and contributed to winning the game against the defending champion Warriors.
It's their offensive rebounding and 2nd chance points that made the difference. 17 offensive rebounds for them against 9 of the Warriors. The reason why Coach Kerr put Kuminga in the 4th quarter but it didn't help much.
The Kings would need to keep this kind of pace if they want to win the next game on their turf.

The game is very close though, if Wiggins just hit that corner 3, the complexion of the game could have been different as the Warriors will have the lead by that time. But let's give credit to the Kings, Monk and Fox combine for 71 big points for them. Monk started hot and then Fox takes over in the 3rd quarter and he is the one who get them into the game after trailing the Warriors. So this series is going to be tight, but the Warriors are still very much in the game, as you can see in the post game interview, Curry looks relax.

Yep, that was close. The Warriors almost defeated Kings on the road but the latter gave their fans a good entertaining match where they are the ones who will win at the end of the day, kudos for the Kings though because they didn't let their own crowd to be disappointed and have a defeat on their 1st game in the playoffs after a long dry years without participating in the post season.

Road game again for the Warriors in the Game 2, right? This should be interesting because the Warriors now know what to do or at least they've got a better understanding how the Kings are moving inside the court.
944  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Devin Haney vs Vasiliy Lomachenco - May 20 on: April 16, 2023, 05:21:42 PM
Previous belt holder Teofimo Lopez did not hold himself from commenting on this match. According to Teofimo, no one in the division can defeat the Ukrainian master. He praised the many different tactics and skills of Lomachenko' without reservation. However, perhaps Teofimo spoke favorably of Lomachenko in order to improve his status.

Haney as far as it matters for him additionally downsized the Davis and Garcia match. Haney says that Davis and Garcia are just popular, but true boxing fans and writers know how important his fight with Lomachenko is, which will be the battle of No. 1 and No. 2.

Is that so? is surprising to hear this from Teo, maybe that is the reason why he doesn't want to give rematch to him because he knows that it might be different outcome if Loma is 100%.

It's true though, the real fight is him vs Loma for all the belts in this division. But what can we say? the public is clamoring for Davis vs Garcia fight and it's what we want. So Haney better proved himself again and defeat Loma so that he can either get the winner of this fight to make a good paycheck for him. But there is also the looming Shakur in the background.

I think it's both where Teofimo Lopez truly understand that he was just lucky that he defeated Lomachenko before because the latter wasn't in a 100 percent condition at that time. Hence why Teo and his camp opted for a fight against Kambosos rather than going back against a fully conditioned Loma, they already know their chances, I mean we can't blame them if they chose that way because who knows, Kambosos might fail too but unfortunately, that's not what happened.

This time, it's good that Loma got his chances again to fight for the undisputed title, he deserved this as he could've unified the belts already if it wasn't because of the injury he acquired that made him fail on his path. This should be a good fight because the winner will really benefit from the future fights as Shakur and the winner of Garcia-Davis fight is already queued to fight the undisputed champion.
945  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Tank Davis vs. Ryan Garcia betting and discussion (May, 2023) on: April 16, 2023, 04:55:22 PM

we can only assess the fight after this is over. so we can't judge garcia this early on how he will perform inside the ring. since he is being challenged by davis, he may still have something under his sleeves and let's see if those will come out inside the ring.
garcia knows he is the underdog on this fight. so he may surprise us during the fight.

Well both camps are preparing hard, even though many thinks that Davis has the advantage, I think we cannot underestimate Ryan Garcia in this fight.  He is also capable of knocking his opponent.  So we cannot determine the winner of the fight just because of the records and their talks on social media.  The actual fight will determine the result and it is coming.

This reminds me of one of the favorite clip I watched during the conference of Davis and Garcia fight.  It is a scenario where Ryan was telling the masses that he has lots of ways to beat Davis and then Davis but in and made Ryan speechless.

Here is the clip of the said argument:  https://www.youtube.com/shorts/ivQeFCpiE_Q

It will be a matter of who got a better preparation and who is more mentally ready in the day of their fight, we already saw that both of them isn't backing up even an inch, so I'll take that as a hint that neither is willing to give an easy fight and that makes this fight more interesting to see. Advantage or disadvantage, both of them got the weapon of destruction.

That said, few more days to go and we will finally see this most anticipated fight of the year.
946  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: April 15, 2023, 10:27:00 PM
The Boston Celtics are roasting Atlanta Hawks alive, I mean 30 points lead at just Halftime, but then I strongly think the referees or officials are doing a very shitty job of not calling several supposed foul on Hawks and then the Celtics get to break in transition in the other to get an easy basket, I don’t get my why Celtics gets away a lot of those non-call, and I don’t think it’s had anything to do with some home court advantage, and then you see Tatum complaining Doncic-esque style on any call against them. I understand that the Celtics are a very physical team in terms of defensive approach, but that’s shouldn’t warrant a blatant series of no calls when they very obvious and some often should even have been checked for potential flagrant fouls.

This could be a big issue in the next few games and even if they get away with this within the first round, the fire will be much bigger by the time if ever the Celtics managed to get themselves a spot in the conference finals. A lot of people will be watching closely because this is not the first time this happened, one of the referees (I forgot the name) whenever the Celtics are playing at home are already in trouble, yet the league is not even looking on it.

I know the Celtics got the advantage over the Celtics and probably with the other teams competing in the playoffs too, but this should be a fair game until the end and the underdogs should be given a fair shake.
947  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Tank Davis vs. Ryan Garcia betting and discussion (May, 2023) on: April 15, 2023, 09:25:24 PM

But yes, just like you mate, we as the avid fans of boxing are hopeful that he already left his old version where he was too vulnerable. Other than that, it's good that a fight like this happened where we can witness two KO specialist sharing a ring because these days, it's almost already rare seeing this type of fight.

He needs to change that strategy if he will continue being predictable with fewer footworks and just trying to land a solid punches,
it will be hard for him knowing Davis is a smart and also a KO specialist.

He needs to move more and try to dance with whatever the music Davis will direct the tempo of the fight, hoping to see the adjustment from him here.

Both are good at throwing solid combinations and with that capabilities we are expecting a KO outcome whoever wins the fight.
And Ryan Garcia should improve his defense because most of his fights are only showcasing how good his punch is but his defense is not that tight as he always leaves his jaw open. That's why Campbell was able to land a good punch on him that almost flip the fight.

But in this instance, we might see a fight that is more on defense rather than throwing volumes even if it's a solid combinations because both camps cannot afford to make mistakes here as that's a risky on their side because the more you throw a punch, the more chances your opponent to give a counter punch which we know that both of their punches are quite lethal.

That's one weak spot of Ryan, he doesn't have a good defense, heck he doesn't even have movement in his feet. All he do what chase his opponent, and tuck his chin with this shoulder roll. But when that chin is exposed for sure Davis might touch that, similar on how Luke Campbell got him in their fight.

So he really needs to work that one out, at least some movement, left and right, otherwise Tank might time him coming inside and put that one punch that will knock him out for good. And it's just about a week, everyone is really hype and excited about and for sure majority have put their bets already.
I recently listen to Ryan Garcia's trainer, Goosen and not sure if they are going to look for more movements. He didn't gave specifics details about their strategy, but I'm hinting that they are training for Ryan to be really swift and fast and powerful in this fight.

So this could be one of their strategies to caught Davis with Ryan fast hand and vicious left hook. He has the height and reach advantage, so for sure he is going to take advantage of it.

Well, I guess that is already expected that anyone on Ryan Garcia's camp will not give any specific details about their preparation as that will spoil the opposite camp and give them an advantage if a specific detail will leak. But I sure do hope that Ryan Garcia's more swifty now because Goosen has said that for years already that they were training Ryan to be more agile but that's not what we saw in his recent fights. He's still open and easy to read by experienced boxer, like Davis.

I believe everyone on this forum has made both good and bad decisions in terms of investing in altcoins. I recently made a mistake buying a lot of Dogecoins after Elon Musk changed the Twitter logo into the Doge logo. Price was surging and due to FOMO, I bought a lot at the price of $0.099 and afterwards it started to dump like hell. If I continue to hold Dogecoins, the price might be dumping even lower but if I sell them now, the losses become concrete and I'll never have a chance to win back. Have you ever had the same experience ? What did/would you do ? Please share your opinions. By the way, I am with FireDAO team, in charge of the global community. Please contact me if you have any inquiry.

Well, that's indeed safe to assume OP because every beginner will really make mistakes as that's a part of our growth and whether we like it or not, that's the most expensive part where we will gain an experience and a lesson. But hopefully Doge wasn't the first coin you bought when you entered the crypto world because you're indeed on a wrong path and probably just invested because of the hype where people are expecting that the price of Doge will surge after Elon changed the twitter logo.

You should know that we're in April, where April fools are happening. But since you already invested on it, I suggest you hold it rather than selling it because you will just add your losses if you sell it, we never know you might get lucky. Next time, I advise you to keep some safe distance with these coins.
950  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: April 14, 2023, 08:32:23 PM
Bulls' confidence are probably still high after that epic comeback against the Raptors. Maybe DeMar and Zach could do it again. I just think that the Heat are better at handling things when their backs are against the wall. I would have placed my bet on them if the line was a bit higher at around 1.80. I don't like it at under 1.50
Both teams do have an equal chance of course but it's just hard to disregard the Miami Heat because they are more experienced when it comes to intense games as their roster are more comfortable and already accustomed playing games under stress in post season games. We'll see later, I can see that a lot of people here are rooting for the Bulls and not the Miami Heat.

Wolves would likely take that final playoff spot in the West.
Still debatable because they are still up against a young roster of Thunder who are also hungry to acquire more experience.
951  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Devin Haney vs Vasiliy Lomachenco - May 20 on: April 14, 2023, 08:05:44 PM
Despite the disadvantage, I still look forward Loma to winning the match.  Who knows we might see the best of Lomachenco in this fight.

Who knows, maybe most people are mistaken about the advantage they see in Haney for this fight. Loma has been a warrior and has never lost a fight where he was clearly dominated. He's here to prove that, despite his age, he's not out of his prime yet and still has what it takes to win.

So Loma being an underdog in this fight should be seen as an opportunity as we might not be able to see this kind of odds again.

While I agree on your statement, I hope you didn't forget that Lomachenko isn't an undefeated boxer as he already experienced two defeats in his career. First was against Orlando Salido on a vacated WBO belt at 126 and then second was against Teofimo Lopez that resulted into a loss of 3 unified belts at 135.

Anyway, I also believe that Loma's career is not yet done and we might see a surprising act where he will show to us again the performance of a healthy Lomachenko.
952  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Online casino always take risks? on: April 14, 2023, 07:38:30 PM
I am a player who looks for good promotions,good bonuses and has a lot to do when it comes to having the best offers, erp I have a big mistake and that is that I do not always read the terms and conditions because I do not like to read so much when I am about to to register and that is an error that I must correct, sometimes one sees that the promos say that they have to be for 30 people and then they cannot use the voucher in those cases I do not read,but it is necessary because otherwise it is to inconvenience because there are things that don't add up and it gets ugly when you want to withdraw winnings that don't leave the casino.
Gambling generally is taking a risk with your money where the risk of losing the money is higher than winning anything on top of it, and when someone doesn't read the terms and conditions of a casino platform before gambling in it, I believe they simply double the risk for themselves as they will not know anything about their terms and conditions at all.

Whether the terms and conditions are lengthy or you don't like reading, it is important for your gambling activity to have some awareness of the terms of the casino that you are playing at just in case you manage to win something and want to have a withdraw, that's when problems start to build up for you.

Even if you're just a regular small baller, it's still advisable to read the platform's terms and conditions before you commence on making a deposit. I mean, anything can happen and it's much better if you know their terms so that if you find yourself in any situation, you won't be asking yourself some questions that you probably don't know the answers as well. That's just like going into a war without knowing what you're dealing with, and in terms of casino, we should already accept that our chances of losing is really much higher because they got the house edge and we ourselves just have luck and enough knowledge to play.

To end this speculation, here's a news regarding their possible rematch: NO REMATCH CLAUSE FOR MURODJON AKHMADALIEV VS MARLON TAPALES

In the stated article, Akhmadaliev's promoter, Eddie Hearn, said in an interview that there was no rematch clause written on the contract but they will try to make a rematch happen and if Tapales's camp won't agree, they will try to ask the WBA to enforce a mandatory fight to get that fight. As we all know, Eddie Hearn wasn't convinced that Marlon Tapales won that match that's why they will try to negotiate for a rematch.
There it is. Nice share brother.
Eddie Hearn said they will try asking WBA for a mandatory fight. Why don't they ask Tapales' camp first? Pride?  Cheesy I bet they will not retreat from a challenge but they might be wise about not accepting the challenge.
Why? Simply because they now have a chance to unify all titles on whoever will win with the Inoue versus Fulton fight.
Indeed, that will be bigger than just a rematch which takes a risk on the two titles being stripped again from Tapales. I'd very much love to see a Filipino making a dream come true. This kind of achievement will be big for the whole country.

Aside from pride, Eddie Hearn is making sure that Marlon Tapales's camp won't get away with the rematch and because they are already assuming that the latter's camp are not interested in making the rematch for them as it's already a finished chapter. Going directly with WBA (which I believe Hearn got some serious connection) increases their chances to have that rematch that they wanted.

So, let's see if Hearn can get the WBA's approval for that request as I don't think they can make a mandatory fight that fast because Marlon just got the belts and so he does have the liberty to make few fights first before a mandatory arrives.

Good for Eddie Hearn if he's thinking that way because that is favorable to our own Marlon Tapales because the more he talks about the recent upset of his 2-belt champion, Murodjon, the more exposure for Tapales and he will be more known in the industry. Besides, Eddie Hearn is just avoiding to waste some of his precious time because if he will go directly for Tapales's camp, there's a risk that he will just be toyed, so he's just making sure that a rematch will happen by going directly towards WBA.
955  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Casimero vs Nghitumbwa (May 13) on: April 13, 2023, 09:02:29 PM

I have no expectations from Casimero's opponent because he is an unknown fighter, but I am more interested in how Casimero will deliver an impressive win. However, as you said, Casimero should not be careless and underestimate his opponent. If the result is not in his favor, it could potentially affect his future journey. Remember that he wants to be a champion again, and the only way for that to happen is if he keeps winning fights.

That's true, but let's hope that Nghitumbwa will not be a different fighter in the ring. His records indicate that he is an aggressive fighter, but sometimes boxers change their style when they face a superior opponent. This fight is going to be entertaining, and we are expecting to see Casimero face a challenging fight. So, Nghitumbwa better live up to that challenge.
I hope he does not change his style radically, after all the moment he does he is already admitting that he cannot beat his opponent with his main style and strength, and if that is the case then how can he expect to beat Casimero if he will need to use a completely different strategy than what he usually uses? Now some minor adjustments are fine, but a radical adjustment spells doom for most boxers, no matter how skilled and talented they are.

Speaking about chances, radical change in techniques and style will unlikely give any good outcome in a match or fight because it requires patience and time to master those changes that are made prior the fight and looking at the time Nghitumbwa has, he definitely don't have that much time especially against Casimero. But we never know because we are just speaking about chances, I think we should see the outcome first because Nghitumbwa's camp won't be that confident enough if it doesn't work.

Well, if that's the only way that Nghitumbwa's camp sees just to defeat Casimero then they should do it because either way, they need to show their skills and try to give the former champion a hard time because looking at his records, it's not that believable that his power is in par with Casimero as he's just an unknown boxer who and more like a local boxer who doesn't have any good experience at all.

I had OKC to win the game and qualify and they have huge young talents to win the game but I went to sleep on 3rd quarter on Bulls game thinking that they have no chance to comeback and when I woke up today and I saw that they indeed made a comeback ...I was shocked and happy on the same time and I had to search for highlights of 4th quarter because that is where the magic happened.

You mean Pelicans? Because the Bulls faced the Raptors and won their separate match in the Eastern Conference. Most probably you just woke up when you wrote this quote Grin

Anyway, the Thunders will be facing the Wolves tomorrow at the latter's homecourt and the winner will face the Denver Nuggets in the first round. Personally, I think I will favor the young Thunders against the Wolves who are in a middle of something right now and it's good for us bettors because the Thunders are listed as the underdogs with a present spread of +5.5

For the Miami Heat vs Chicago Bulls match-up, current spread is -/+5.5 where the Heat is listed as the favorite.
957  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: April 13, 2023, 07:32:05 PM
Pelicans gave everything, but Ingram's effort is not enough. they seems to rely more on him in crunch time as compare to OKC who are really relax in this game and whoever gets the ball are confident that they are going to score. They are going to face the Timberwolves next and it could be sure berth for them if they win.

I don't know which team is better between the Pelicans and Timberwolves, but with the current issues of the Timberwolves, it might affect the team's performance, so OKC might have another upset win again. Gobert was suspended for one game, so he wasn't able to play against the Lakers. But I'm sure he will be playing in their do-or-die game against the OKC. However, as I said, it boils down to what chemistry they will show.
Timberwolves may end up losing this one because we are talking about something that is silly. They had a fight between the team and had to ban Gobert, and mcadoo ended up punching the wall and breaking his hand. Those two things sound like a very silly reasons to be missing out on anything and I feel like there is a chance maybe we could do better than that.
I guess you could really say that because even if the roster is somehow decent, we can't disregard that they are in a hot mess right now and that will likely result into a miscommunication while playing in the game because they are in a middle of misunderstanding. The management might be frustrated by now but they can't do something because the franchise's fate is in the hands of their players which I think the Thunder will take advantage of their situation now.

Quote
I am not saying that we need to be doing any better or something like that but Pelicans at least do not have that. They have the full roster basically, they are missing Zion as always and that is normal at his point, I am not really expecting him to be playing that much in his entire career, maybe finish with less than like 400-500 games total, so its fine.
They had a good run and they almost defeated the Thunders but we all know that almost isn't as good enough as that was their entire chance to play in the playoffs. The roster is already fed up by Zion's absence as his presence could really increase his chance. But no, that fatty was just too selfish and choose to be overweight instead of being fit enough to help his team.

They win, but they didn't cover the spread because the initial handicap was -6.5.

Both games were won by the underdogs as they covered the handicap. I am thinking of following this trend for tomorrow's games, specifically by betting on Bulls ML and +5.5, as well as OKC ML and +5.5.

Additionally, I believe tomorrow's Bulls vs Raptors game will have a low score, so I plan to bet on under 213.5. Even though there has been a line movement since it opened at 216.5, I still think 213 is high.
Nice bets. But I will go the other way for the two bets.

Toronto Raptors - Chicago Bulls - Chicago Bulls ML Yes, I am taking the Bulls ML as well as I think they have a good chance to win it. Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan would just need to be careful about the defense of the Raptors. These guys could sometimes be super effective at defending offensive guys.
Toronto Raptors - Chicago Bulls Total (Incl. Overtime) Over 211.5 I believe they could somehow go over that score. Who knows, we might win both if the total is 212.  Wink
Based on their head-to-head matchup this season, the Raptors have won two out of their three meetings. So, it's understandable that they are the favorites here. However, the spread can sometimes be overvalued, as we saw in the Lakers vs. Wolves game. Therefore, if we find value on the Bulls, we should not hesitate to take the handicap.

New Orleans Pelicans - Oklahoma City Thunder - New Orleans Pelicans (-5.5) Vouching for the Pelicans here. No Jose Alvarado which could've been a great addition to their defense but with the help of Herb Jones and Trey Murphy, it might suffice to stop the Thunders. Ingram and CJ might go nuts in this game with their offensive powers.

Good luck everyone.

OKC has been underrated this season, and I also like the home team. Therefore, I cannot decide which team to bet on. I might pass on this game or just wait for a live betting opportunity. If the ML odds for Pelicans become attractive, I may consider placing a bet, but that will only happen if the scenario is similar to the Lakers vs. Timberwolves game.

No need for him to rush things out because he might get surprised by the opponents waiting for him at the top if he won't get himself accustomed first. The likes of Inoue, Fulton and Murodjon won't get themselves attached to someone like Casimero because doesn't have any reputation yet built at 122 that's why he should make a statement on this fight so that he can aim on the interim belt holders.
Yeah Casimero is nothing at super bantamweight division, he need to fight at least 2-3 and it should be at top 10 boxers in super bantamweight division, so he can take a challenge with top 3 or 4 for interim belt.

We still don't know what's the next path Casimero will do if he win this fight, some boxers sometime tend to move to the next weight or lower his weight without any clear reason. If he think super bantamweight is too much for him, he may back to bantamweight again.

That is the goal for now, first is defeat Nghitumbwa for a clear reason because he is blocking the way towards the upper bracket and then after that, Casimero should at least fight another opponent before this year of 2023 ends. He still got a lot of time to rest after this bout as this is scheduled in May, so after 2-3 months of rest while considering that he's not that seriously damaged on this bout, he should fight another opponent for a year ender so that he can improve his standing.
