People started trying out the bets in polymarket since the US election because it seem to be getting popular when the mainstream media reported the platform.

When I finally tried it, I discover that most of the bets I do in casinos are also in Polymarket. Does anybody shifted as well?

Because from NBA, Football, Boxing and MMA are also in Poly. Anything actually, even the most horendous bet is on the platform even the question of whether there will be a WW3.

The WBA is asking Naoya Inoue and Murodjon Alhmadaliev to negotiate the fight for the Super Bantamweight belt. They have until July 14 to reach an agreement or submit to an auction, they say, no later than September 25.

Mandatory negotiations #InoueAkhmadaliev

We will be seeing one again Inoue before the year ends. So much will again be amazed how Inoue will KO Akhmadaliev but after learning how he was knocked down the last time, Akhmadaliev may be seeing it his chance.  Akhmadaliev is next to Inouie in the WBA rank, his only loss was with Marlon Tapales which was a close fight. Who knows what Akhmadaliev can do

In all metrics, Inoue still has the edge in striking power, precision, and overall fight experience making him a formidable opponent. But this is a mandatory fight, I guess Akhmadaliev has to face him. 

I'm offering my signature space in Bitcointalk and signature space on the biggest Boxing and MMA forum on the internet where most users are also sports bettors.

I am a boxing and MMA fan and I have been busy in the sports forum. The forum also has a betting forum where most users are sports gamblers discussing bets and who they put thier money on. While Bitcoin is becoming mainstream and most internet users are well aware of Bitcoin's existence, it's good to promote services to a community of big bettors. And there is even a Crypto Mega thread in the forum which is now v36, I'm also participating in this thread all the time.

Actor Terry Crews vs Anderson Silva is going down on June 15.
https://www.mmamania.com/2024/5/19/24159868/say-what-actor-terry-crews-books-boxing-match-against-anderson-silva-in-brazil-june-ufc-mma

As if Jake Paul and Mike Tyson isn't a shitshow already, here comes another one that will distract you mentally forever. Yep, the world is going bananas but according to MMAmania, the two will be fighting in Brazil this June 15, it's unclear however whether the rules will be boxing or MMA. So stay tune for more info on this. I think the actor Terry will be funnier in action. Though Terry has no experience in any combat sports according to this news, he is very fit.

Update:
Fight Cancelled I guess. The update is that Silva is fighting Sonnen Chael. So this is their trilogy from MMA not to boxing in Sao Paulo Brasil!

It’s not uncommon for events with large turnouts to require heightened security, which is exactly why the state of Oklahoma will be deploying its National Guard to help with crowd control during the upcoming total solar eclipse. The solar eclipse will occur on April 8, and the city of Idabel is among 13 of the best locations to witness this celestial spectacle. Idabel, which is located in McCurtain County, stands to be overwhelmed by as many as 100,000 tourists and spectators whose presence will most certainly overwhelm local resources if they don’t have any additional support.

Solar Eclipse Deploys National Guard To Deal With 100,000 People By Robert Scucci | Published 6 hours ago

We have been watching the eclipse since we were kids and it will last only just a few minutes and nothing special about it anymore actually.
So what exactly is going to happen on April 8 that they need to deploy the National Guard? It looks like something is going to happen.

Just want to share.

He was interviewed on Lex Fridman's channel just today. Funny how he thought it was just $80K but it's actually $3M. Rich men lose more when they get drunk playing blackjack.

He advises about winning and losing in gambling and if you get depressed because of it, gambling is not for you. He meant winning and losing are part of the game where great things and bad things happen.

He just beat Ryan Bourland recently who looks like not willing to fight and Jake is up again for another.
They should call this a fight but an exhibition but believe it or not is happening. You think Mike is done after Roy Jones but Jake wants to pull him again for he just needs recognition from the boxing community.  

I would be surprised if Mike beats Jake. He is 60.  Would you bet if its on Stake?

Jake Paul is set to fight former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson in a boxing match that will be livestreamed on Netflix.

The bout is scheduled to take place on July 20 at the AT&T Stadium in Texas and will be available to all Netflix subscribers. Additional information, including the co-main event and undercards, will be announced at a later date. It is being produced in a partnership between Netflix and Paul’s and Nakisa Bidarian’s Most Valuable Promotions (MVP).

This will not be the first time Paul and Tyson have appeared on a boxing card together. Paul fought in the co-main event of the pay-per-view that saw Tyson fight an exhibition match against Roy Jones Jr. in 2020, which was Tyson’s first boxing match since 2006. Paul defeated former NBA player Nate Robinson via knockout in the second round in what was Paul’s second professional boxing match.

This is the new M2 exchange baaed on Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.

The exchange allows investors to buy over 30 Verified Crypto Assets. This is gonna be big and their regulation is not inline with the US regulation. I can;t be sure if its open for everyone around the world but on what I have read on comments US citizen may not be able to register.

Is this gonna be the next big exchange that will replace Binance as what Oleary claimed? What dyou think?

I'm hoping to make more BTC so the more bets from now on the more chances of winning. I think that's what I'm going to do now before the bull run takes full speed.
Regardless of which game. To me, I bet on Soccer but I seem to have lost every day. How often do you win in Soccer games if you just bet based on odds by picking a team with 1.50 and 1.70?

This is just a question got from someone I hangout with yesterday when I introduced her to investing in BTC. She is 50+ but managed a busy small hotel and has a son who had been playing games on the computer all the time. After some discussion, I advised her to just remind the son not to gamble the BTC.

So she asked how I end up gambling online. I'm not totally a gambler at all, I started investing and somehow stray as I'm trying to win some.
She began to worry since her son is on the computer all the time and might gamble upon learning the BTC can be gambled.

Which one has a high possibility of happening, a gamer eventually becomes a gambler or an investor turns into a gambler?
But first, answer the poll which are you. Are you a gambler that become an investor or an investor that turned into a gambler?

Kusama in a follow-up tweet said, “Yes I am serious. We would be at the table with policy makers and would help shape global policy for the MV alongside other giants like FB (bye Zuck), Sand, Decentraland etc.”

Whether this belongs to the Economics forum or Altcoin discussion, it's worth talking about because Kusama, as we know, would be working with the high officials of the world. What are your thoughts on this?

WEF if you have read about this before is a very shady organization that was allegedly working with FTX where the page of FTX was deleted from thier website. WEF was promoting a lot of unbelievable stuff like the great reset down to eating insects.

I got a token airdropped to my wallet and I see its price going up. I have read what the token is about and is only listed on different DEX and one exchange such as MEXC. I'm thinking of playing around with it but I can't see it on Tradingview. Is there a way to do it like connecting MEXC data of a particular token pair to Tradingview?

I already tried searching "MEX:" on tradingview but was not found.

The Circa opened at a time when online sports betting, which is now legal in more than twenty states and the District of Columbia, was in full march across the United States. This meant that the Circa not only faced stiff competition from well-funded competitors such as DraftKings, FanDuel and Caesars but it also was trying to sell an in-person experience that might very well be woefully out of date. For four of my friends and me, renting one of Circa’s “Millionaire’s Row” football-watching booths on an N.F.L. Sunday required a twenty-five-hundred-dollar drink-and-food minimum, with a mandatory five-hundred-dollar tip. Instead of just firing off bets on our phones in front of our own televisions, on our own couches, we had to stand in line to place bets at a window. Some of the modern innovations in sports gambling, which include live betting, where you can wager in the middle of a game, and elaborate parlays, where you can string together multiple exotic bets for one giant payday, are harder to find at a brick-and-mortar casino like the Circa. On an app, you can also bet on everything from South American soccer leagues and global cricket matches to political races, most of which were not offered at the brick-and-mortar Circa sportsbook and likely not at the smaller sportsbooks in Las Vegas.

In interviews and in the press, Derek Stevens, the owner of the Circa, has seemed a bit coy about why he built this place. But here’s my theory: Stevens intuits, perhaps correctly, that widespread sports-gambling legalization will bring what once was a barely clandestine culture fully out into the open. Betting apps, then, aren’t really his competition but, rather, client-outreach vehicles that could help lure people into his casinos, especially for big events like March Madness and the Super Bowl. He has created, in essence, the Disney World of sports gambling—a place where large groups of people go a few times in a lifetime, and splurge on everything from bets to cabanas and spa packages. All he needs for the vision to work is a nation of sports bettors ready to open their wallets.

Creating a nation of sports bettors would presumably require the participation of the nation’s most populous state. (Thirty per cent of visitors to Las Vegas last year came from California.) The state has two sports-betting-legalization measures on this November’s ballot. Proposition 26 would allow sports gambling, but only at brick-and-mortar tribal casinos and racetracks. Proposition 27 would legalize online sports betting, and passing it might result in something like the app-based, heavily marketed gambling blitzes we’ve seen in New York and New Jersey.

The supporters and opponents of both proposals have spent hundreds of millions of dollars to saturate Californians with ads; this has led to a great deal of confusion among voters. Nobody seems to know which proposal does what, which ones are supported by the tribes—an important political concern, especially within the progressive nonprofit space—or even what the bills will actually do. The Web site for YESon27, for example, mentions very little about sports gambling at all. Instead, it focusses almost exclusively on the money the bill would raise to ease homelessness through a monthly ten-per-cent state tax on sports betting: the funds would first be used to cover regulatory costs, but, after that, eighty-five per cent of that money would go toward addressing homelessness, and the remaining fifteen per cent would be distributed to Native American tribes that are not involved in sports betting.

Most of the money to stop Prop 27 has been raised by gaming tribes that operate casinos that, along with a broad coalition that includes the California Democratic and Republican parties, have brought up everything from the addictive properties of gambling on your phone to tribal-sovereignty issues. Their argument relies on the premise that online gambling is much worse than going to a casino in person, which, of course, is totally fine. In fact, the big gaming tribes seem to be saying that in-person betting is so fine that everyone should support Prop 26 instead and allow sports gambling—but only in racetracks and, of course, their casinos.

It’s all a bit silly and disingenuous. One side uses the homelessness crisis as a cover for legalizing sports-betting apps; the other pretends that they alone can provide a safe gambling experience. Neither proposition is polling well—a recent U.C. Berkeley poll showed that a mere twenty-seven per cent of voters support Prop 27, a response that is doing only slightly worse than that for Prop 26, which is seeing support from just thirty-one per cent of likely voters. The marked lack of support has pushed the proponents of Prop 27, which include the big app companies like FanDuel and DraftKings, to mostly give up and wait until 2024 to try again.

None of this means online sports betting is dead in California; in fact, all it really highlights is that many powerful interests appear to be cornering what they think will be a lucrative market. The amount of money at stake and the other states that have already bought in may actually broker some sort of compromise between the tribes and the app-based gaming companies. The tribes could also spend the next few years trying to build their own apps, and trying to control the market themselves.

Online sports betting, as I wrote last year, seems to fit in with Robinhood, stock-trading apps, and cryptocurrency trading in getting users—usually young, impressionable men—hooked on losing their money. It took New York State about a month after legalization to become, for a while, the largest sports-betting market in the country; thanks to aggressive customer-acquisition campaigns that included incessant ads and free bonuses and bets, gamblers in the state wagered $2.8 billion in the first seven weeks. Some studies have shown that sports betting is five times more likely to lead to problematic play than other types of gambling. Other studies say that online gambling is more addictive than analogue casino betting. (Though it should be pointed out that, at least in California, the casinos are helping to push that narrative.) Because the big online-gambling companies can roll out their services almost immediately after legalization, and have a seemingly unlimited amount of money for promotions, they will likely outpace whatever support infrastructure that can get built to help addicted bettors.

I’ve spent way too much of my adult life in casinos and cardrooms and sportsbooks, where I’ve met more than my fair share of problem gamblers. I’m still not sure if app-based sports betting is much worse than betting in the Circa sportsbook, where a few steps in any direction run you directly into a slot machine. The idea that it’s somehow healthier to place your bets at a racetrack than on your phone doesn’t really pass muster. Gambling addiction is, in many ways, built on sensory compulsions: the smell of the grass at the track, the sound of a roulette ball bouncing across the face of the wheel, the sharp edges of the dice digging into your fingers. It’s still an open question as to whether the apps can match up to the sensations of physical spaces that have been designed to suck the cash out of your pockets.

There’s a well-worn maxim in gambling that says you should assume everyone is lying to you at all times. This rule also seems to have carried over to the debates about online sports betting, where the only thing you can really trust is that every press release and every commercial is specifically aimed at cutting someone into the action or cutting someone else out. Instead of trying to cloak the issue in more palatable talking points such as tax revenue and homelessness funding, politicians, lobbyists, and the corporations who want FanDuel and DraftKings in their state might do better to just ask the question in a more up-front way. Because Americans, on the whole, do seem to want to become a nation of sports bettors—this year, Maine, Kansas, Minnesota, and Massachusetts passed sports-betting legislation. The will of the dudes in Instagram shorts with a few expendable dollars to put on a game will be served.

Prop27 focuses thier ads across the country exclusively on tax from sports betting being used to ease the homelessness problem.
Most supporters of Prop26 are just in favor of in-person betting than online gambling because it's much worse.

The politics related to these propositions are at work that gaming tribes want to control the market while the other side is where big online gambling companies like FanDuel and DraftKings want a bigger share of the market. But as the author said, the tribes can build thier own app to compete in online sports betting platforms in the future if prop27 wins. This leads to debate about online sports betting in the end and as he said you should assume everyone is lying at all times.

The author is still debating which prop he favors but he drifts to pointing out NY took about a month to become the largest sports-betting market in the country after legalization because online sports-betting companies can immediately roll out their aggressive promotions. Although he is unsure if app-based sports betting is much worse.

It doesn't matter whether you are a sports gamblers who sits in front of a big screen betting on football matches wearing football jerseys and baseball caps they wore backward or the sports gambler who just sits down wearing pajamas at home betting with thier phones. I think it drifted far enough to see what we look like upon deciding on online betting legalization. Wearing a cosplay costume will probably just apply on metaverse if there is ever a possibility of this. Would you wear a costume on Meta?

As a sort of compromise, both parties I think can just arrange not to decide until the tribes are ready to launch thier online app as well for better competition. For the sake of fairness. This is just about making money so in order to not cut each from opportunity, they could work out instead of resisting the future development which is going online betting and perhaps adopting crypto as well which I think is what they could next be dealing with. Things are going in this direction.

The attorney general of the District of Columbia (DC) Karl Racine believed Saylor was moving to different states every few months to evade income tax. 183 days living in a state will be subjected to paying tax but moving to somewhere before the required days as a resident makes him clear. Saylor lives in a Washington penthouse while actually a resident of Florida and sometimes moves to Virginia. I'm however not very sure of this info as I was just reading the news from crypto news sites.

In some comments I've read it's an attack on Bitcoin. They first sanctioned Tornado Cash and accounts are to be frozen, now they start with the biggest crypto personality Micheal Saylor. What are your comments about it, are Bitcoiners next?

Now, this would be something of a thread where users can give tips as to how we play online/offline without our family knowing it. Curious how you do it.

My wife suspected me for almost a year already when I was watching a UFC channel on youtube where they suggest who to bet. Of course, I said No when she asked if I was betting. From then on I just hold my phone whenever she is not around. It's a long argument when your wife suggests buying this or that on amazon yet you gambling your funds. lol

Elon must have been laughing secretly with what he did to twitter after offering them a large sum and then declining to buy, it made twitter mad that they are filing lawsuit. This lawsuit will be damaging to twitter in the end because they will have to publicly disclose information in the court.

Will they settle for a lower price instead or will twitter open to disclose data which Elon's lawyers will ask?

The podcast I was listening I think was discussing about this taproot update which this could turn Bitcoin a sort of a competitor of ETH like a smart contract platform. Because I am also foreseeing the price to explode way bigger than $100K that we expect. I'm however skeptic with what I have heard as it was a random spotify channel.

The investment we have with other smart contract projects like the BNB, Matic or ADA could be pointless in the end because this is going to kill them when we can all do send stablecoin and tokens with Taproot update in Bitcoin. Is there any truth to this?

“Gambling has been part of my life ever since I can remember. But about a decade ago is when I would say it became reckless. It’s embarrassing. I don’t like that people know.”

Another biggest loser in gambling is on the list adding to the competitive personalities they have in sports. He had been gaming since 2010-2014. Five years of gambling, yet he didn't realized he is not that good like his prime, he must be chasing his loss like everyone who in the process resulted to more loss. Mickelson suffer over $56 million in gambling loss and also spend hours for his therapy. When a guy already enroll himself in a therapy, you can tell its already bad.

When you are the ones playing your sports, you'll trust on your skills which is why he bet so much too. I guess this is also what happened to the NBA stars who fell in same loss. It must be hard to cure such gambling addiction since he make a living out of golf sport, he is expose to this sport all his life. The only way I guess is to retire and if he still gambles after that, its really getting worse.

I have been comparing my bets to the picks of those users who provide some sports betting picks and predictions in MMA. I care to learn who they are rooting and what made them see the possibility of the fighter that will win. The fight schedule will allow me to bet on weekends and sometimes 2 weeks apart for another fight night.

This time I'm trying to see my luck on other sports like NBA and football. Its a lot harder for me to have my prediction on m own because I don't often watch NBA and foot ball games so I'm going to rely on their ranks and from sports youtube channel that provides betting picks. Upon searching there are lots of them. I'm pretty sure they can help in deciding who to put our money on, can you suggest some of them?
