As for Ja Morant, wrong set of friends, yeah he could be under pressure of the limelight but this is not the way to do it buddy.

You are destroying yourself, flashing guns. He really need help, specially from his families.
That's not good for him, as he has lots of major sponsorships that gave him a lot of money. If he can't change his life, then I think his career with the NBA will be short. As a superstar, he has a big responsibility, which is to be a role model, and his actions have shown that he is not living up to that responsibility.
He's still a kid himself. He might be under the mentality that he made some money, screw everyone else. I hope he isn't because he really is a superstar player. Super exciting on the court and the grizzly fans would be losing one hell of a player.

The fame seem to getting to his head, I understand he's said to have a great work ethic and it is somewhat evident on the pitch with the way he react to losses especially when he's one of the reason they lost a game, but he's spending as much time as he spends practicing on social media and always often attracting the wrong attention to himself, he does a lot of trash talking, barely few minutes after any game, the next thing he does is to take it straight to twitter, but he's not done much that should make him think he's the next Kyrie Irving or Kevin Durant, players who have proved themselves for several years, it will be such a waste to throw away his beautiful career before it get started with these petty and stupid antics.

I just saw on ESPN that he's already deactivated both his Twitter and Instagram account, He's the face of a franchise and I think that might just be taking it way too far, he should instead have handled by a professional social media team, that can portray him as getting better and working towards redemption of his image, but if it's just a temporary break, then that's fine.

Jeremypwr handing me my first L, so no player with 100% record in the division shows that the participant were selected intentionally by their prowess in the game, it's very competitive I'm not gonna lie.

I have a suggestion, I don't know if it makes sense though, but I'd suggest that since it's usually a H2H contest, that those questions with for example, like that of Man Utd vs Liverpool today for Over 2.5 and total number cards should also count the H2H duel if someone gets either of the question right, but shouldn't count towards the freebet points.

this matchday we have even 4 winners who can be happy about the $50 free bets on betnomi
Congratulations to Harkorede, Ulven, Betwrong and darxiaomi aka darbit, who scored the most points of all participants with 16 points each.
i have forwarded your usernames Smiley
and my performance was the worst of all 21 participants... Lips sealed Lips sealed

It was Frankfurt that let me down, they should have just left the game with a 1-2 victory, that'd have made my week a prefect one, and help me close the gap with Icopress a bit further, but I was still able to cut into his massive lead from last game week, so that still amounts to something imho.

Is the Newcastle dream over? I did get really lucky keeping Almiron in one final game when he last scored, otherwise I'm not liking any of them right now.
Newcastle is still good but they lost their touch in attack, from fantasy perspective it is all about Trippier and maybe one more defender or Pope.
I'm 56 points + Salah, Darwin and 4 other players yet to play. my game plan is going well.

I find it really hard to compliment a winger in City but he's got to be the standing on the shoulders of the rest in the games I do see him play. But yeah he's not really been in contention for FPL because of Pep.

Trippier yeah, probably happiest pick for me all day at the back (minus flirting with TAA/Robbo).

A slump week for me, I suppose, thinking of what could have been. Even Robbo getting the assist not likely to top 50 for me, kinda regret not keeping Salah on but hey, Darwin having his worst game in a long time too... looks... tired? And still scores? Yes =)

I WANT TO SEE RASHFORD BLANK..... LIVERPOOL UP TO YOU.

You're welcome!

I'm absolutely devastated with Liverpool's win I had Darwin, Cody Gakpo and Mo Salah last game week, and I had to take a minus 8 points hit, to get rid of Gakpo and Nunez only for them to get emphatic and terrifying result and 2 goals apiece for each of them, absolutely blistering!!!

it's a total chaotic week for me in the pool, if only this had happened in their double gameweek  Sad

 and I'm not so positive on Phil Foden or

Foden is back, and scoring goals
Haaland seemed as great value and perma captain, but does not provide much lately, will reconsider his position

Akanji was in, and that was good

Arsenal showing why they are not reliable at all, and Kepa took clean sheet

Yeah, Foden is back into fold but for how long, who knows with Guardiola in charge, but I think he might get decent minutes for a while given is current form, I'd probably keep Haaland as my perma captain, because even with Arsenal you get 3-4 choice to pick from without knowing who exactly is going to explode, Saka as the penalty take with the slight advantage, Arsenal haven't had much of that this season.

Brighton being more terrifying than expectations but I went for the wrong guy in Solly March today, silly gamble but budget oriented  Sad

For tonight's picks I think I like a multi-bet parlay with the Magic, Celtics, Suns, Nuggets, Warriors, Kings, & Timberwolves.  I put a couple bucks on that as well as a few variations to see if I could make some magic happen tonight.  With the Celtics/Nets and Grizzlies/Nuggets both being on ESPN tonight, I figured I'd watch and make it a little interesting.  I'm already looking forward to the weekend though.  Sunday has a pretty good lineup of games starting with one that I've been waiting to see since I heard about the KD and Kyrie trades...  The Suns and the Mavericks are kicking things off Sunday morning on ABC.  Already excited.

Unfortunately your parlay would have been ruined by the team with probably the least odds for the night, for clarification I meant the Boston Celtics losing to the Brooklyn Nets from a situation that the Celtics are 30-1 in, that's for every game that they've lead by at least 20 points in the first quarter, I'm sure this one is also going down in their history.

The Brooklyn Nets finally defeats the Celtics in the NBA after 10 consecutive loss in this fixture, without KD, Kyrie, James Harden or even Ben Simmons, from being down by 28 points in the game, It's freaking surreal!

Napoli ended up not scoring any goal so good chance for us that picked Inter Milan on the 6th question. I doubt that Inter wont be able to score against Lecce but it could happen and there are 2 players that chose Both the same on the 6th question

As for Dortmund vs Leipzig, over 2.5 goals and over 8.5 shots on goal according to flashscore. Its combined total of shots on target isnt it? if it wasnt then it is under 8.5 shots on goal


I don't think Inter will draw blank against Lecce, I'm sure if the question had been how many goals will Napoli with 0, 1-2, 3 or more as options majority of use would have failed the question though..

Myself and Jeremypwr look inseparable and it's going to come down to the final standing in the EPL last 5, and the NHL game between Dallas and Colorado, the most painful point to have lost for me is with the Barcelona question, I mean going with Barcelona despite being 4 Odds underdog but unable to get it right on the total goals to be scored.

and Djokovic not being able to win a set against Medvedev is another upset that wasn't expect for me, but at least for me it's better than having Djokovic make it to the final with the hope he will get defeated then.

I don't think punter Toney will be running in the upcoming games after admitting the sin.
Cheating in football matches has a significant impact on fantasy game coaches as well as club results, so I believe Toney will face repercussions from the team.

Mbeumo springs to mind. Huh

The problem is that the charges will take some time to be processed, although is likely to be before the end of the campaign (as per reports from BBC.co.uk) and with his lawyers said to be involved already despite pleading guilty it's going to take a while before the FA will come to a decision with such numerous number of charges, I'd expect him to play the next couple of games including their double gameweek, provided he doesn't pick two yellow cards in the process because he's two yellow cards away from a suspension.

Mbuemo does offer a valuable and very cheap option though, and without Toney he sure would be the first to come to mind.

I already have two Brighton players, and my team is set to play until GW 29.
What are your thoughts, Darwin owners? Should I keep him or sell him

Added Mitoma back, so I'm full up on Brighton, but I chose to bring back Darwin and put Rashford out (I smell a victory, and want to take full advantage).

I'm full Brighton packed too! I'm putting my life on the line with Brighton is also completely packed for me! I'm putting my life on the line with Mitoma, Ferguson, and Epstus; I kept Darwin and Salah and permanently removed Nketieh. Despite everything that is going on around him, it appears that Toney will play. I'm not willing to take a big risk on him.

Quote
Salah also out though, to reshuffle my board, he normally gets goals against United but he might end up feeding Nunez more this time.

I'm taking a huge risk on these bums.

Quote
If you guys haven't figured it out yet, I don't know what I'm doing =)

Who doesn't know?

I'm definitely keeping Salah for the time being, there is no one, I would rather waste 4 points to get in for him, Bruno Fernandes is having a though fixture, for all we know De Bruyne might undergo another Guardiola experiment, so who else Son ? he's being nothing what his name suggest this season a "bouncing baby boy", and I'm not so positive on Phil Foden or Mahrez either so, it might take a while before I trust someone else from City except Ederson and Haaland, unless Man City gets eliminated in all competition, then a huge maybe.

Should I continue? There are interesting games ahead, or simple picks like "City qualifies" with odds of 1.20 - looks very attractive to me as City annoys me so much that I'm willing to pay that money to see them eliminated at the 1/8 stage  Grin

For your benefit, I say take out half and try do it again.

For my benefit, I say pay that money to see them eliminated.

You want an even better dumb option (in reference to your Serie A jibe)? Liverpool are 27/1 to qualify to the next stage. Take out $1700. Bet the rest on that. That would be severe punishment for everyone except yourself.

Share your next leg picks please. I need to at least put something while you're on a hot streak!

I really envy his hot streak to be honest, but sharing picks often comes with certain pressure, I hope you don't jinx it, lol.

The Champions 2nd will be very tricky and we sure might some upset, I'm rooting for a Liverpool, what would the odds be, huh ? If a halfwittedly Barcelona team can beat them at the Bernabeu, I think Liverpool stand a bigger chance of staging an upset, yet again, don't you think ?

It's not just in the Indiana Pacers and Dallas game that there a whole lot of inconsistencies with players, I saw a whole of inconsistencies in the Warriors game too, as well in the Toronto Raptors vs Washington Wizards fixture too, Pascal Siakam had just 13 points, Kawhi Leonard couldn't get a single assist in 31 minutes, Westbrook had just 8 and 6 assists as starter, and I also lost a bet simply because Doncic couldn't have 7 rebounds 😒

There are a lot of fixtures to recover from today, hopefully.
1732  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: March 03, 2023, 06:43:22 AM
I'm taking the Hornets live betting at 18.5 at 1.95 odds. Phoenix and specially Durant is making a killing out of this helpless Hornets.

But maybe there could be garbage time leader and hopefully they can manage and squeeze in some points to make the score close and not let their fans disappointed with a blow up lost again.

Nice bet there mate, It was close in the end but Phoenix were already comfortable, and Durant still put up some show despite just returning after a long time being out, although it still doesn't suggest that Phoenix Suns would have it any easy down the stretch or during the post season, this Charlotte Hornets team are barely a team that's worth considering the decent test for the Suns.

Thanks mate, and that's what happen here, garbage time for the Hornets, although they really try to make it very close throughout the game, but too much Devin Booker.

Sixers +1.5 against the Dallas live betting. The game is pretty much close at this point and it can go either way. But I'm looking at Sixers to even steal one at Mavs homecourt.

Crazy game!

Philadelphia 76ers were really locked in for the first two quarters, but then they got blown out in the 3rd quarter and it's was almost a done game already by the end of the 3rd, but Maxey, Harden and other cut the 19 points lead down to just 4 points within a few minutes into the 4th Quarter and forced the Mavericks to call a time out and bring in their starters back, and after that it was just a couple of possessions and the lead was back to double digit, and Doncic is not needing to do it all by himself, because all other players are doing their jobs as well and contributing to entire game plan.
1733  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: March 03, 2023, 01:05:32 AM
Yeah, seems the majority has won their bets, so it's a good night for us,  Grin

San Antonio vs Pacers - Indiana, -5.5 @1.86

I'm tailing on the Indiana Pacers,  although Tyrese Haliburton has been ruled out, maybe that's why the line has reduced a bit it's currently, -4.5 @ 1.90 for Pacers, I'll take it regardless, Spurs are without a lot of core players Keldon Johnson is out, and having to depend on Devin Vassell who's been out injured for around two months and Tre Jones look quite not worth backing for as well.


I've also got an eye out for LA Clippers -3.5 vs Golden State Warriors, LA Clippers look really good the departure of Reggie Jackson and addition of Russell Westbrook have made them a really better team, and according to reports it's seems he's going to be among the starting five for Clippers tonight... I've also got a Props on him to make Over 7.5 assist tonight.

GL!

Big game tonight. I know it's not La Liga but I think the outcome will help determine so many things. It kind of hurts to see Barca as quite a big underdog but I guess that's good for betting if I believe in the club. 4.4x is a very good value bet so I placed a bet. Not as big as I would have, strangely, if the odds was 2x.

No Pedri, No Lewandowski but I think Ansu Fati and Raphinha want to prove some things also, so it's all good.
No Dembele, no Christiansen just a first leg and Real with something to prove after loosing Super Cup and trailing in the league. I think odds are spot on for this game. Wouldn't be surprised to see Barca happy even even if they loose 1:0. No need to push for a win and risk it when you have a second leg on your home pitch with most of those guys mentioned back in team.

My money is on Real ML here, don't even trust Barca for my customary both to score bet which I am playing in every classico.

I really can't call shot a here too, and If there are no emotions attached to the game for me I would have gone with Real Madrid ML too, but then illogically I would say we've beaten Real Madrid under worse conditions.

BTTS still look very much the safest way to go imo, though.
Seems like this Barca side can win against Real even when they are not playing a good game. Did not watch first half but Real tightening the screw in second half. They look way better but no goals for them so far.

Seems like it will be another bad day at bookies for me. I doubled down on my prediction and took Real to win reminder of the match @2.2. So all or nothing  Grin

Damn!

That was though luck ngl, Speaking of playing badly, at least Barcelona had 2 shots on target, while Real Madrid had zero shots on target, despite dominating the entire possession, it was as though both teams switch styles for result. I knew that Barcelona stood more than a chance to win the game, and I could have chased the 4 odds, but I'd rather wait for NBA that have money and my emotions tied on the same side, I would have bet on Real Madrid for the 2nd leg, so I'd be betting against my emotions, it'd still make sense either Barcelona makes the final or I make some money  Wink
1735  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🦊 Betnomi.com ⚽️ Bundesliga Football Pool Discussion Thread 2022/2023 on: March 02, 2023, 08:59:06 PM
big game tomorrow, Dortmund is facing Leipzig, and this should be a great match
Dortmund is in great shape lately, winning in series, and they are raising title ambitions certainly, while Leipzig have solid result from City match, although hardly to go through in CL

only thing that is standing over Dortmund is match with Chelsea in CL, that is as important as Friday match
goals should be definitely better option, but lower odds, than home win

Playing on a Friday gives both teams a slight edge over the opponents, and both teams have equal game/prize, even though Dortmund would fancy their chance against underperforming Chelsea, than Leipzig would against Man City, I'm sure both teams would rather play Chelsea right and having a first leg advantage than face Guardiola's City.

That said, even though I expect goals from both ends of the pitch in this contest, I think both team would approach the game with caution, and could end settling for a draw, I'll wait to see the line up and go for the team that goes less conservative with their squad/line up.
1736  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🦊 Betnomi.com | FPL Football Pool ⚽ Discussion Thread on: March 02, 2023, 08:36:59 PM
why you would use WC for next week, I am thinking about FH for Brighton, Brentford, not sure they will going to prove worth on several weeks in the team
trying to think it through for the rest of the season, and Brighton and Brentford do not seem as teams that have much to fight for till the end, maybe Europa/Conference league spot
Well Brentford has 6 games in 4 game weeks and Brighton has 5. Both teams have been performing quite well and both teams have some great players with budget friendly prices. Fixtures aren't bad either. While at the same moment I have a lot of United and Liverpool players that have though fixtures and just 3 games in next 4 game weeks. Arsenal is only top team worth the money at the moment and I need to exchange Nketiah to defender there. I also have Bueno who is out for a long time. Just a lot of things to take care off.

I'm also rooting for Brentford and Brighton here they've got a lot players with great points potential to choose from, but the problem now is that almost every single player on the FPL portal have the yellow caution on them, I'm currently having five of them on my team that's got the yellow and any further transfer will be extra points deducted, I just want finish this game week issh free or at at least not drop too many points  Angry

Not feeling well yesterday, so I skip everything. For tonight's game,

Suns vs Hornets, - Durant's debut as Phoenix Suns, -9.5 @1.85
Knicks vs Nets - Nets 7.5 @1.92
Cavs vs Celtics - Cavs 4.5 @2.04
Grizzlies vs Houston - Memphis -9.5 @1.88

Sorry mate, I hope you're much better now!
_____________________________


The Phoenix Suns will be in high spirits and it will be the exact opposite for the Charlotte Hornets who have just lost their best player in Lamelo Ball to injury, but I'll likely be go more on the live bet on this game instead of predicting early, we're still looking at how Durant will slot in to the Phoenix Suns with altering their chemistry and make every player complement each other, they've already got a decent scorer in Booker, a facilitator in CP3, and then there is an almost all round perfect center in Ayton, so adding KD to that team could almost signal a near perfect and championship worthy roster, but we all saw what happened at Brooklyn Net with the Harden, Kyrie and Durant roster, so pardon me, this match up and Boston vs Cavaliers are both my game of significant interest this night, but I choose to err on the side caution with the Suns.
