981  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Grand Lotto Winner on: July 11, 2022, 08:59:20 PM
Recently someone in our country just won a whopping 401Million Pesos(7+Million dollars) from our 6/55 Grand Lotto and another Winner of 5.9Million Pesos(105k Dollars) from our 6/42 Lotto draw. I am happy for these two winners but I am a little worried since the Lotto Organizer mentioned what city they are from. I hope that the Lotto organizer never mentions their names since these people who just had a life-changing experience could be in danger if they ever revealed their names.

here's the link if you are curious about the article https://www.pna.gov.ph/articles/1178611

Yes, I also read and received the same news yesterday and they are quite fortunate enough to win especially that one person that had won that whooping $7 Million+. That will surely change their life for the better and they deserve to buy all their want and needs but I also hope that the money will not be wasted easily on some nonsense things that will make the money go down the drain fast.

It's pretty natural that they will announce or mention the city where they came from, it's not the complete address and the city is so wide just to find that certain person. I know news travel fast but these people who have won the jackpot is faster as they also know what to do in this kind of weather.

<<<snip>>> and that they'll be able to keep the most important players particularly the big 3.
As long as they are playing with great chemistry, there should be no problem with keeping the big 3.

Curry, Thompson, and Green, are the foundation of the Warriors, they keep their bond together and together they won many games and championships. No need to add Durant or any star that would make the Warriors sacrifice the key players, they have to keep the core of the team while developing the younger ones.

I definitely agree, what else could the Warriors want? They had already proven that they win a championship and can get a ring without Kevin Durant's help, with their new assets and the current big three, they can still win many games and even get the championship again in the next few seasons. Also, they just have to utilize and expose Wiseman to get some more experience so that he can be their next big man in the center.

We are now seeing what would happen to a country if the economy goes down.

People in this country are suffering now, but this is all because of bad governance.
Honestly, I can't imagine that they will get worse than this, it's the children that will be affected more, hopefully, they will be able to recover although it's very hard to make it happen.

The corrupt people who cause this are probably now leaving this country.  Angry

The only place Bitcoin can be sold is at the ATH level. Because you can buy back the Bitcoin you sold at the ATH level at lower prices. But we are not at ATH level today. We are 70% below the ATH level. Selling Bitcoin at these levels and buying Bitcoin at a lower price is not an easy task and carries great risks.
I wish people gets educated and will not invest during the bull run, instead they will find the bear market the best time to invest.
Also, I wish we are not greedy so we can sell at a high price, it doesn't matter if it's not the ATH, as long as we get a good profit, we should learn to be satisfied.

Divide investing into long term and short term, and don't forget to accumulate during bear market.

Also, I've been reading news everywhere these days that goddamn whales are stocking up on more Bitcoins. I agree with OP. Bitcoin may be valuable to not be sold these days.
It does not need to be in the news, it's already given, when the market had a huge dump, whales will alway take advantage on that.

Game 2.  Ginebra vs TNT.

Mikey Williams has to bounce back here, he had a bad game against SMB, and looks like he is not having a good start in this game as well. He only scores 3 points and already in the 2nd quarter, their top scorer is Pogoy with 10 points. TNT might not win if Williams will struggle again, so I'm thinking of betting on Ginebra while they are still down.

After all, Magsayo lost, well, I was sure that he won on points Smiley, but of course the last decision is up to the judges, it's a shame, but I hope there will be a rematch.
Magsayo still did a great a job despite of the decision, I just loss a bet but I do hope for a rematch because we witnessed a great match up, its just that Vargas is too much for Magsayo, but who knows maybe because of this loss Magsayo will train harder to reclaim the belt. This loss left the Philippines without a world champion, I hope our boxer will have a good fight again.
IMO, the judges' decision was fair, Magsayo lose because he cannot hit Vargas with some solid shots and Vargas was too smart to use his reach advantage. Magsayo knock down Vargas but it wasn't enough to convince the judges to give him the win. Magsayo will come back for sure.

And he has been criticized as well by many basketball analyst, leaving Nets and then the Warriors winning the championship? That could really hurt Durant inside that's why he wanted to leave and find a new team to win again. But time is running out, it will be hard to find a championship caliber team in exchange of him.

Actually Durant should not be surprise that the Warriors won a championship because the Warriors are already a championship team before he joined the team. He only made the Warriors better but they are still good even without him, as Draymond said, "we don't need you", he was right.

MANILA, Philippines — Chot Reyes will call the shots for Gilas Pilipinas in the 2022 Fiba Asia Cup from July 12 to 24 in Jakarta, Indonesia.

After missing the third window of the Fiba World Cup 2023 Asian Qualifiers, the Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas (SBP) announced on Friday evening that Reyes, who is also the program director, will be back to coach the young Philippine men’s basketball squad.

What do you think about this news? is it a good news, or a bad news?

Please share your thoughts about this one, because I read a lot of negative comments regarding this.

There is still a long time for the 2022-23 season to start. It is going to be underway on October 18, 2022. Lakers have a long time period ahead to think about the new team composition that they should be building for next season. Their lineup was really inadequate last season and Lebron had to do all the work. This caused them to have a poor season and say goodbye to the playoff round before even it started. Lebron must be waiting for proper trades to be motivated to continue playing for them.

Well, time is gold for the Lakers if they are serious in planning to get key players for the next season. They might lose their targeted players to other teams.

I do believe that it is just hard to trade Westbrick's $47 million salary. And the Lakers do not have a lot to give, probably a lot of future draft picks. But with KD wanting to get traded too, the Nets might consider future draft picks for their rebuilding.

They are now in serious discussion to trade with Kyrie and I think they can make this to happen as they want to pass up what they think a problem on their teams. Although this talks will not get any assurance but I believe they will make this thing to happen as Lakers and Nets is running out of time on their free agency. We don't know if Durant will be happy with this trade because it looks like he will play again and if I'm not wrong they don't have good relationship to each other.

So if Irving will be traded, will it be in exchange for Westbrook? If that will happen, then the old teammates will be playing again, Lebron +Irving, and Durant + Westbrook.  I can't imagine this to happen, I'm thinking maybe the trade is good if Nets will get Davis in exchange of Irving.

Mate, I also couldn’t have imagined that Bitcoin would ever come to at this current price. We can give the surety about the condition of market . But if we see the current situation there is no positive point or signal for the bull-run On the other hand, one bad news after another is coming. The Russia & Ukraine war is also impact on market . So It can be say that bitcoin have the possibility to down at 15k or more .

Nobody has really expected that the market would crash this low and we've been through ups and downs since the year 2022 started but I recommend that we remain calm and stay optimistic especially if we're into long-term hodling. We will be anxious if we're more of a trader rather than a hodler because the fall of the bitcoin will also be the fall of other cryptocurrencies.
992  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The Most Expensive Thing Bought with Winnings from the Casino or Sport Bet on: July 07, 2022, 06:40:39 PM
In my case nothing special. I've already gambled to help my family to pay monthly bills and thank God I achieved success on that.
I have also nothing special.

But you're better because you've helped your family and was able to pay the bills. I haven't done that to support and pay the bills through gambling. I may even spend the budget for the bills instead of paying it.

Then how do you take care of the bills if you're just spending the budget that is already allocated for the bills? Or maybe you mean that you just prefer to spend and splurge yourself from that winning instead of paying those bills. If that's the case, that's totally fine because our winnings in gambling are not guaranteed money so I don't think that we just rely on gambling to pay our bills.
993  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Type of Gambler Am I? on: July 07, 2022, 06:15:15 PM
I consider myself as Casual Gambler and yes I mostly do this for entertainment and also for recreation , I may win sometimes but that would be considered as Bonus ,  so I will stick to my style and activities and that is being casual gambler.
and also 30 of the voters or majority are a casual gamblers in which I believe that we are all fair gambler and mind setting .

Not in the whole forum but the majority who voted in the poll is more of a casual gambler which means that almost all of us here had the right mindset when it comes to gambling activities. Winning is a good thing to experience but even in that situation, it's highly suggested that we must keep our boundary and try not to cross it so that we won't regret something in the end.
994  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Hacker claims to have stolen 1 B records of Chinese citizens, demands 10 BTC on: July 06, 2022, 08:33:36 PM
Perhaps the fact the hacker is asking for such relatively low price has to do with the fact that most of the data involves normal citizens and even though it is highly sensitive information, it has no inmediate effective use for rival intelligence agencies, but I dont know I am just a normal with no ties to agencies so I could be completely wrong.

Perhaps there's too much data the hackers don't know how to actually analyse it themselves.

Since it contains so many records it might not split up convictions and accusations too or have other reasons it's not worth much to them (either that or it's a test to see if they can get them to payout something).

Probably, but I think that the hacker probably want the data to sell it in dark web if in-case he wouldn't receive what he's asking and he's not interesting in analyzing it for other purposes, it was stated that he was just asking 10 bitcoin so it really seems that he just want the bitcoin and not the sensitive information of the Chinese citizens that he have.

I just don't know but if Kyrie will go to Lakers, the Warriors might get Durant again (guess only) and they have a good trade package to get Durant with Poole, Wiggins and Wiseman so they an get it if both parties will agree. The future of the Nets now is still unknown but we might see a picture of what they will be doing next season if Kyrie and Durant will be traded and which players will get in exchange for both of them.
The Warriors should maintain their current line-up especially these young players that have been a good asset to the team this recent season and because the coaches and staff had already invested their time and efforts, then all of the sudden they are bringing Durant again in-exchange for Poole, Wiggins and Wiseman? Nah, I also won't believe that they will let go of those 3 stated young players. Wiseman could be dangerous in the center, the kid just need more exposure to enhance his skills.
996  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Something Like This Happen To You on: July 06, 2022, 06:27:48 PM
We experienced unexpected events or moments in gambling like this one, you are calling it off a day in a session then you're suddenly on a winning streak thinking that it's your time to get back what you've lost will you go or will you stop and come back the next day.

I'm sometimes tempted to continue but I know you cannot beat the house, so most of the time I just call it a day and just wished that tomorrow or next time it's my lucky day. What about you what's your take.

It is called a gambler who relies on luck who believes that he/she cannot lose and will always win at gambling, something that is not right and good to be a gambler's mind. So the only weapon we have as a gambler in a casino is if you know that you often win, it is better to stop first and come back the next day, because if you continue, you will definitely lose because it exist that greediness in being a gambler, also causes us to have no chance of beating the house edge at a gamble.
Correct! We shouldn't let ourselves to give in especially in the times when we have a winning steak, of course it is really hard to stop because we are confident that the luck in our side that time but we need to control our mind so that in the end we won't find ourselves regretting on our actions. We must draw a line even if we're still winning to avoid losing down the road.

Oo, dapat optimistic parin tayo sa ating manok na makakapasok pasok din sa NBA. Sa ngayon hindi pa niya oras at oo sya ay 20 years old pa lamang so meron pa syang dalawang taon para makakuha ng experience at exposure dahil sa pagkaka alam ko ay dapat hindi lalagpas ang isang talent sa 23 years old para sya ay ma draft. Suportahan lang natin sya palagi sa kanyang career kabayan.

Madami pang madedevelop kay Kai sa loob ng dalawang taon at sigurado naman ako na hindi magpapabaya yung bata, kita naman natin yung determinasyon nyang ma draft sadyang hindi pa lang talaga nataon para sa kanya ang taong ito, kung supporta naman ang pag uusapan majority naman ng mga pinoy panigurado kung hindi man lahat pero syempre mas marami ang nagnanasa na makita syang makapaglaro sa NBA.

Abangan na lang talaga natin yug mga updates patungkol sa kanya, balik Adelaide na muna sya at doon na lang maglalaro

hindi na sya nag pursige sa paglalaro para sa gilas baka meron ibang plano yung agent nya para sa ikabubuti ng career ng bata.
Abay syempre! Kahit sino talaga na fans ng NBA o mahilig maglaro ng basketball dito sa atin ay parang kilala na si Kai Sotto, at syempre marami-rami din ang gusto makapasok sya sa NBA kasi sya ang magiging kauna-unahang first pure breed pinoy sa liga at representative ng Pinas.

Marami pa syang oras at may mga rason kung bakit di pa sya nakapasok sa NBA, kuha muna sya ng dagdag experience at exposure. Sa ngayon parang sa NBL paring ang punta nya kasi di nagbigay ng tugon ang campo ni Kai kung lalahok ba sya sa FIBA 2022 sa Indonesia at parang wala nading pag-asa na makakasama sa NBA Summer League.

Ito narin ang magandang way siguro na para makahabol, good luck nalang sa atin guys.
999  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will you be in favor of Gold or Bitcoin !! on: July 04, 2022, 08:50:44 PM
I am definitely for gold. If the goal is to invest money and not go into the negative - definitely gold. Really an investment that definitely won't lose. But bitcoin can bring both profit and loss.

Well, that's your choice and I understand your opinion. But why choose if we can buy both gold and bitcoin, right? Actually, there's no need for comparison as bitcoin and gold is two different things and have different purpose but they are both the same when it comes to investment.

Bitcoin is more handy but it's volatile while gold is hard to move especially if we decide to fly it across the globe but its price is not that volatile, so both of them has its own pros and cons. It's actually our decision which of these two suits us the most and make us confident enough.
1000  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin to 30k Range again on: July 04, 2022, 07:45:13 PM
It seems that the bearish trend is still happening again and many experts believe that the market will rise again in August, if this happens there will be a trend in 2021, the price of dropping in June and last July began to rise in August, so I preferred to buy.

It is not seems, the Bitcoin market had already been in a bear market for months now.  Some vlogger thinks that some good thing will happen in September but without him giving a proper backup and proof, I doubt that.  I think we won't be seeing Bitcoin at the $30k range until next year.  I hope I am wrong but that is what most news and market sentiment feels like nowadays.
That $30k would come anytime soon but since we are already in a bear trend the chances that we'll see it again is far from the reality yet. Maybe we'll get close to $25k or lower than that since we are in a bear market, I think $30k would be a dumping price of the other holder who's just waiting to see an opportunity. This month would be a long day to be thinking that Bitcoin would break and pump but it will take some fomo if the market want to pump. Whales will do pump them once but we don't know yet when would be that time.

Yes, soon but we can't know the time for sure when as we don't really know when would this bear trend ends. But since we're already optimistic about it, might as grab as many patience while hodling it. As of now, it's still below $22k but the market is pumping for the past 12 hours and I think that's a good reason for us to wait for its recovery. Nevertheless, $25 or $30k, there will be always an investor that will decide to buy or dump.
