Phoenix ML @2.78 vs NorthPort
Phoenix +4.5 @1.95 vs NorthPort

^^ My bet for the second game, hoping that i can recover my first game lose.

Unfortunately it didn't hit because Northport were able to dominate Phoenix by beating them in a 19 points margin. I was also thinking that the game should be close, but it turns out it has become a one sided game. Anyway, that's normal in gambling, you win some and you lose some.


By the way, it seems like no one is talking about Kai Sotto's performance in his first game in the summer league, he was given good minutes to showcase his skills and AFAIR, he had like 6 points, 4 rebounds and 3 blocks in just 13 minutes of playing time.
962  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Multiple timeframes is another means of getting better market clarity on: July 13, 2023, 10:28:00 PM
In my opinion, daily trading is more inclined to small time frames, and larger time frames are used as a reference for analyzing longer markets. I usually watch the trend from the larger time frame and place transactions on the smaller time frame. the smaller the time frame used, the more support and resistance areas will be visible, and we can use it to trade with faster market reactions in the visible support and resistance areas. if we analyze on a large time frame, the price reaction will take longer, even though our goal is for short-term, or daily trading
Trading in the bull and bear seasons can become difficult; we simply require to comprehend the market's concepts and price action; this will at the very least facilitate our trading journey. We are acquainted with trading strategies, alongside the support and resistance zone becomes obvious with these smaller views and advantageous trading intervals. I prefer shorter time frames because I am an experienced scalper in the market; trading daily will result in more stress. Despite bigger time frames, we can see the chart perfectly, and the market is turbulent at all times.
You have to use different time frame, different indicators to know when to buy and sell and see your current position, there’s no wrong on doing this and you can become more effective trader if you have this trading strategy since the market can’t be ok in just one time frame or indicator, expect for a trader to use multiple strategy. This is trading and you are looking for the best combination, day trader are often looks at a shorter time frame.
These time frames are available because they are very helpful when doing analysis. I indeed use short and long time frames just to picture what really happens on this particular project as we can't just rely on what happened today or this week but also, we consider what happened several months ago. Yes, the use of multiple timeframes makes us clearly understand their situation and it was easy for us to decide whether we have to buy this or not based on their previous performances.

There are two types of Bitcoin Holder,
 1. Short-term holders - those who usually sell their coins and empty their wallets.
 2. Long-term holders - those who usually hold for many years and see their wallet address filled with a lot of Bitcoin.

Perhaps, it was their choice and you know what, it was hard to convince a person to hold when in their mind is to sell when the price went high. You can't force someone to hold if it was not in their mind.

In on-tour games TNT still not winning anything and with what bisdak bet he managed again to win as the outcome only gives ROS 6 points that's something far from the handicap bookies gave for TNT. Not sure why it was being brought here about the regular season opportunities of TNT as we all witness what they've got last season, they are still in the competitive status and with coach Jolas we might see them competing as hard as what the fans expect from them.

FOr now, just chill and continue enjoying what the PBA is offering as the preparation for the world tournament is affecting the
PBA, let's hope for the best in this upcoming new season.

Maybe he was not following the games here and thought that the games held were for the regular season  Cool.

That 21.5 points handicap was a sure winner even before tip-off hehe, just too wide of a spread considering how a defense-oriented ROS played, i mean coach Yeng Guiao will not be happy at all if his players won't play defense and with that, their offensive output will also be affected, low scoring game i supposed but surprised to see that the total over-all score reached 200+.

If my memory serves me right, the ML odds pre-game for TNT to win was @11.xx, that was huge if you have bet for them and TNT won the game.



They came close to winning that game and gave ROS a tough time. It's fortunate that you bet on the handicap, which turned out to be a sure winner for you. In their next game, I believe TNT may not receive a high handicap spread anymore, considering how they performed in their last game. Bookies might make some adjustments, but if we can identify any value in their odds, it would be wise to take advantage of it.

I agree with you that it might be tough for them placing him as they already have lots of scorers who
can give them good offense. And same with the Warriors, though let see if what's the next update about Wood we never
know which team will sign him.

The Lakers faced the Nuggets because they were a strong team, with the Nuggets holding the top spot during the season while the Lakers barely made it to the playoffs. From my personal observation, what seemed to be lacking for the Lakers at that time was support for Davis. While Davis could effectively guard Jokic, he appeared to be burdened with both scoring and defensive responsibilities, leading to potential fatigue. It might have been beneficial for Davis to focus on one specific role, whether it be offense or defense, in order to maximize his impact.
966  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Shuting down all bitcoin ATMs illegally operating in Uk on: July 12, 2023, 09:52:21 PM
I'm in favor of what they are doing, that is the thing they are supposed to do because the moment that they just tolerate installing BATM, they are also letting these owners to helping illegal transactions. What they looked at is the welfare of everyone, well, some people would say it was unfair but that is the law, those businesses that have not permits are illegal and should be stopped. Because I don't that the UK is against crypto but only these owners are lazy enough to comply with their requirements in order to become legally operated.
967  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: July 12, 2023, 01:45:26 PM
Two new rules have been approved recently and will be effective this upcoming season.

1. In-Game Flopping Penalty. It's almost similar to what was previously proposed and what we've already discussed. The main difference now is that the opposing team will only be awarded one FT attempt and no more ball possession.

2. Awarding of second challenge to the coach when the first one was successful.

https://twitter.com/NBAPR/status/1678918316667068416

A lot of veteran floppers will have to adjust to this now hehe. Good for the game.

I believe the flopping rule has already been reported here, and we are all aware of it. However, the second rule, which awards a second challenge, seems to be something new. Personally, I like this rule because it rewards teams if there are any incorrect calls made against them. So far, these two added rules appear to be very helpful in improving the league.
968  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Referral bonuses are waste of time on: July 12, 2023, 01:07:32 PM
Referral bonus system is actually an advertisement system. It is the strongest advertisement system employed by gambling companies. This means that some parts of the money the company should be burning on promotions is channeled to referral bonuses. In a real life it is not a waste of time and according to Paxmao, it is not a favour the gambling company is doing for you. It is the reward of work done and people who knows how to convince others to play in their favourite platforms benefits from this.

Affiliate Marketing is one powerful marketing tool in online business for many companies. What online casinos did was to take it to the next level by giving a high percentage of referral bonuses than any other business? This is the only reason why everyone wants to venture into this business. There has been a rise of influencers who are trying to promote an online gambling platform as they are actually targeting the referral bonus. My opinion is that in the AI anyone can become an affiliate marketer for a casino if they have a plan in placed.     

It's still effective if the actual person markets to gamblers based on their experience. It's more convincing than an AI. Perhaps AI marketing could work, but it will never be as effective as a person who is highly recognized on social media promoting a gambling site. AI has its limitations since it is created by humans, so it will never surpass the overall abilities of a human.
969  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Nonito Donaire vs Alejandro Santiago for WBC bantamweight title on: July 11, 2023, 12:44:03 PM
I think it's good that Donaire really measured himself against Inoue and so he knows where his power is and maybe it is still the best in this division since Inoue has move up in weight already.

We will find out if he can reclaim the championship title. While Santiago may not pose a significant threat, this is still a championship fight, and Santiago will undoubtedly give his all to have a chance at defeating Donaire. I'm hoping for an exciting fight, and that often happens when a knockout occurs.

Donaire @1.60 by the way, I think it's already a good steal.

Wemby is gonna take the break in the NBA summer league and will now focus on the upcoming season. This is as per the decision of his team, Spurs.

Spurs decide that Victor Wembanyama’s Summer League is over after two games

I guess this is all part of the grooming plan and he had shown enough for the summer league. The preparation for the upcoming season should be prioritized then.

They made the right decision. I was waiting for such a decision. We'll see when the regular season starts.
Popovic has plans for Wemby and Popovic doesn't want anything to happen to him in the summer league.
Yes, wise decision with Wemby, they have seen him play in the second game and have great numbers. But most likely, they will have to sit down with him and discuss what should they improved.

There are still a lot of games int he schedule of the summer league if I'm not mistaken, so maybe we can also see some players who has the potential to be the next hype player not just Wemby in this draft class or even undrafted players.

The Spurs have seen enough from him, and they want to prevent any potential injuries by preserving him during the regular season. This approach is similar to what happened with Chet when he got injured last season and missed the entire season. The Spurs are likely taking precautions to avoid a similar situation with Wemby if he were to see more action in non-crucial games.
971  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Having no money to invest in Bitcoin is even better on: July 08, 2023, 08:28:04 PM

I won't say having no money to invest in Bitcoin is better but I agree it has its advantages.
I would prefer to have money and make mistakes the learn form my mistakes. If you don't have money to invest, you might just keep beating yourself up every time because of the opportunities you're missing out on.

Although you won't make the kind of mistakes a newbie will make, learning before having money to invest doesn't always guarantee that you you won't make losses.
Perhaps, learning is expensive and we need money to do that. A reason why rich people become richer is because they are not afraid to take risks even if they will spend more money just to get information or ideas. Unlike those who have no money, let us say that they have a good level of knowledge and skill but because they don't have money to start making a business, they remain poor.
Therefore, we can say that money is very important and this is a tool that would help us to grow our finances as we can afford to invest if we want to.
972  Economy / Economics / Re: The future of Farming. on: July 08, 2023, 07:53:05 PM
Usually, the government supports farming because it was a helping tool to improve our economic system. There are many programs that support farmers in order to survive from the increasing materials needed and to keep farming. That is why I'd still see Farming will continue and be improved. In fact, in some countries, the government is very focused on this as it was considered a big asset knowing that people need supplies to live. Perhaps, we can't do magic in doing foods and so farming is necessary. In fact, we are all encouraged to do backyard farming and many individuals do and even make it a source of income. 
973  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Lotteries and possibility vs. probability on: July 08, 2023, 07:24:59 PM
The thing is that the lottery or every other gambling is dependent on luck because the outcome is quite in two ways, I have a friend who played the American lottery some years ago, just one ticket and he win the prize right now he has relocated to the US for over 7 years now.

So the possibility of winning may be near zero, but if luck is on your side obe may end up winning, but it's better to limit the number in other not to get addicted.
We can't really imagine how people got crazy doing this when the situation is not fair - near to zero chances? We are just putting our future into almost nothing and besides, we never know when we become lucky and get the jackpot prize. Maybe some gamblers have been doing this for several years but got no luck, yet they are still buying tickets and joining lotteries hoping that one day they become a millionaire. I'd never say it was a big mistake but believing that this would be the last option to improve our finances, that was a big mistake.
974  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bounty hunter is considered as investors with a big patience. on: July 08, 2023, 12:41:39 PM
Bounty hunter patience and investor patience have significant differences. Bounty hunters focus on instant rewards over a short period of time, whereas investors have long term goals with greater financial risk. Investors also need in-depth knowledge and the ability to manage emotions related to market fluctuations, whereas bounty hunters tend to focus on specific contests or promotions.

Well, hunters don't invest money so they won't get tired of waiting, unlike investors who really have the time frame for when to upload their coins. And these hunters can't be considered an investor because they just hold unless they are buying these coins. Investors hold their coins because that was their plan but hunters do hold because their tokens are not yet listed on the market. Because if it is already available for selling, I was certain that there is no holding happening to them, instead they are selling them immediately once get their rewards.
975  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you cheat in gambling? on: July 08, 2023, 12:06:19 PM
Generally, casinos or any platforms start a bug bounty program when they first launch their platform so that if users find any vulnerabilities or bugs in the platform, they report them to the management so that they can get a reward and they can improve their platform, and they stop that program after some time when they feel that there aren't any more bugs and vulnerabilities, only a few platforms would have such a program all the time.

So expecting something in return for reporting a bug or a vulnerability on a platform that doesn't have a bug bounty program going on is useless because you are not going to get anything at all unless it is something very serious and it could cause them huge losses, then they might think of giving you a few free spins.
However this attitude can cause bugs to go unreported, after all an honest gambler may not take advantage of the bug, but if there is no incentive for them they may not report it either, thinking the people responsible behind the website to check for those things will eventually notice it, however if they do not and the first one to notice it this time around is a cheater this could bring heavy losses to the casino, losses which could have been avoided with a bug bounty program.

That is why some sites offer rewards to those who can find bugs in the system. Though it was their part to investigate and look for some irregularities inside but as responsible gamblers, we also have to report even though we never get money because there is trust which is most important. As long as the site has not cheated anyone, they should also get respect and no reason to cheat. Cheaters could be found too easily, so we never have to try it because in the end, we are the only ones that suffer the most.
976  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Accepting Bitcoin on: July 08, 2023, 07:50:21 AM
Since I joined this forum I have always wanted to invest in Bitcoin however Bitcoin investments in my country is not easy because of our currency value and the government is not in much support am currently working on convincing my mom to accepting Bitcoin in her tailoring shop i Also intend on hodling those Bitcoins

I would appreciate any advice on this my move


The first thing to do is to keep your mom aware of the risk. You perhaps convince your mom but If I were you, I don't force her to decide about accepting Bitcoin if that is not yet totally legal in your country. I see your desire for it and offering another payment option to your clients, however, in a situation that you have, I will tell you that it was best to just hold and focus on investing as it was safer than accepting it as payment. Unless your mom agreed and has also the courage to take the risk and understand the volatility of the price.
977  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How is your Gambling Pattern Like? on: July 08, 2023, 07:09:43 AM
one thing for sure is that once we can not control ourselves in gambling then we called ourself as an addict that every single day we need to gamble in order to fulfill our wants. That's why in every bet we made, we must make sure that we can handle ourself In order to get addicted. That's why in the world of gambling we must take care of our ourself and have a discipline.
Losing self-control in gambling is very possible, especially in casinos. Many interesting games make us want to try them one by one. And when we play a gambling game where we become very curious about the game, we might spend more time than before. And that's where the loss of self-control begins because we are triggered to gamble more than usual so that we use more money. And we usually have a schedule for playing gambling, but we can forget about it because of curiosity about the last gambling game we played.
Sometimes we can't go home until our pocket was empty. Because of the time that we won, we then think that we are too lucky this day and gamble more, and in the end, we emptied our pockets.

Of course, we can't say it was our style because we are able to control our emotions but for most gamblers, this is what really happens. And to say that gamblers are always a loser, however, I do believe that we are happy doing this which is why we keep on gambling.
978  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Avoid Procrastination, Buy Bitcoin And Prepare For The Next Halving. on: July 07, 2023, 10:35:14 PM
I think it is a little bit too early to hype the "Halving"  Roll Eyes .... because it is only scheduled to happen next year around April. Yes, the impact of the "Halving" can be seen about one or two months before the actual "Halving", because the markets reacts before the actual event... but it is still too far in the future.

In any way... in my experience with the "Halving" ... I can honestly say that it has very little impact on the price. It will increase in the first two months before the event, when the media coverage highlight it.... and then it is gone.   Tongue
I'm not surprised that people are talking about halving as we are expecting something good things happen in the market. In fact, many speculations arise and most of them are positive.

Might it give impact only a little but remember that the mindset of the people had already changed as well, we never know if this coming halving will affect more on the price. Well, it was not the thing we looked for but the result after halving as the bull season is about to start as what I experienced in the past halvings.
979  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: is right time for investment ? on: July 07, 2023, 10:13:31 PM

If you want to buy bitcoin at $30k, go ahead, because the current price is worth buying,
even Microstrategy has also bought Bitcoin at the current price so if we buy it, we will be like microstrategy.
so don't worry we are not alone.

It's not really the right mindset mate whenever you're buying something because it seems to me that you're just doing what everyone else is doing, instead, buy bitcoin or any other altcoin because you are inclined to it as you have found in your research that this specific coin will have a price boost in the upcoming future and not just because microstrategy is doing it. Don't be afraid to be unique because even if everyone is doing it, it doesn't necessarily mean that it will pay off.
Yes, that was our preference and not because of someone telling us what to do. If they are buying, we should also have to do the same because we know that their mindset is to gain profit as well. It should have a reason and this will boost us to believe that investing in this project will give us rewards. In fact, we believe that Bitcoin has a bright future and the price will rise. If we really have that kind of instinct, I'd see no reason for asking if this is the right time to invest rather than doing it right away but I know that OP has the doubt which is why he is asking.
980  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Durning bull market we will received many good bounty? on: July 07, 2023, 11:54:15 AM
I don't think, good bounty projects will help you to grow financially if you are a type of person looking for bull market to come so that you can make amount of money from it. I believe whenever the price of Bitcoin is rising in the market other cryptocurrencies price will be rising too, which is the time many bounty projects will be everywhere for people to be happy for what they make at the moment while some will be regretting why they spend so much time in the fake project. I believe, before the end of this month there will be massive bull that will make a good bounty projects available for bounty hunters to smile again in the community.
Relying on bounties is not the best option to take if we wanted to earn a profit from here.
Honestly, I have good experience in the past during ICO and IEO time, and most bounty hunters got rewarded, even airdrop does so well. But comparing the situation these days, bounties are no good anymore, they are just shitcoins and useless tokens which has no market value as it was not listed yet on any exchanges. And even the bull season comes, I wasn't thinking that this would change and uplift bounties but the chances to keep low and scammy.
