Was a solid UFC Fight Night card which actually started and featured at night time in AC!
Right after Loopey lost that is when all my picks went to the way side and lost. It always seems to happen that way. It is strange when this occurs and seems to be a curse in these fight night cards for me when it comes to betting as I had Blanchfield on all my accas.
Ah well, you are right we have one more to go then we have the UFC Main event everybody is waiting for!

-snipped- There are some noteworthy quarterback names being released on free agency on the off-season the Broncos can consider: Baker Mayfield, Sam Darnold and Gardner Minshew will all likely be too expensive but Kirk Cousins might take a paycut if the right team is offered. No chance Cousins goes to the Broncos. Denver has no offense and will likely have to cut Jeudy and/or Sutton due to the cap. Kirk is either going to the Falcons or staying with the Vikings. As for the Broncos, i see them draft a quarterback in the second or third round and go from there. There was a documentary about Brady the last time I was searching for something to watch on Netflix something named Dynasty. It's titled "The Dynasty: New England Patriots". Even if you're not a Patriots fan, it's a very good watch. Gonna check episodes 5 and 6 now over the weekend, definitely recommend! Started watching the first episode and then continued until was on the fourth one before I knew it. Glad you liked it, two more episodes coming out today. Completely forgot to check out the rest of the episodes and let my Apple TV+ subscription run out. Luckily I got another free trial for the next three months by chance over the weekend. So can spend some time watching the ones I missed and the new ones you mentioned which are available now. Should fill in sometime at the airport for the Spring Break while in transit. So kudos for the reminder. There is some speculation that Burrows would be traded from the Bengals. I doubt he would leave unless it is with Chase to the same team. Seen @bbc.reporter 's post on another thread about it just now.  |

Finally a win and a nice comeback for Rose Namajunas!
She deserved to win and I want to see her again trying to challenge the champion in Flyweight division Alexa Grasso, but she needs to work hard for that.
Maybe next stop for her could be fight with winner of Erin Blanchfield vs Manon Fiorot fight.
They just fought a few months ago in Paris but that was only 3 rounds so Fiorot will get to see if she can get past those championship rounds being the main event in this fight card. I agree with you there, would like to see Grasso against Thug Rose too as now she can having filling herself out and looking comfortable in her new weight-class as a flyweight. Holding the championship belt they should be more active as we haven't seen Alexa fight in what seems to have been in quite awhile. https://www.ufc.com/athlete/alexa-grassoWell back in September of last year but alas, would like to see belt holders fight every 4-5 months. Or you end up looking like your avoiding the other contenders just like Jon Jones is doing. Which is never a good look for the sport. @notblox1. Agreed on Namajunas. Also, do you know who is Rose's favorite training partner and friend? It is the beautiful and sexy Valentina Shevchenko! I reckon Thug Rose will certainly want to have revenge for her friend. Valentina's last fight against Alexa Grasso was a draw, however, Valentina was the real winner of the fight, I reckon. The skeptical me thinks that they cannot give it to her because it was the UFC's celebration of Mexican independence day hehehehe. Will it be a trilogy? We cannot be quite certain. Valentina has been very silent after the fight.
Yeah @bbc.reporter The Bullet has been silent. Unfortunately for us who are fans of her work in the UFC.  UFC on ESPN 54 multimaster challenge is up: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5490133 |

This was something which needed a follow up to what happened to the patient who had Elon Musk's company Neuralink install a computer chip in his brain so to have tasks done via a computer.  "Noland Arbaugh, the world's first Neuralink patient, has made history by posting a tweet on X 'just by thinking'. Mr Arbaugh, a 29-year-old quadriplegic, has become the first person to send a tweet using only his thoughts, using NeuralInk's cybernetic implant." source: https://www.ndtv.com/world-news/man-with-elon-musks-neuralink-brain-chip-posts-tweet-on-x-just-by-thinking-5300011For some reason keep forgetting Musk owns this Neuralink company and not only Tesla/SpaceX/X. |

I'm also happy to see G2 making into next week because VP is the most uncomfortable team to play against as they tend to squash you on every single statistic. From money to utilities to frags and then rounds...crazy style that one day should win a trophy.
I feel bad for VP even though they've been on and off throughout the tournament, they should've had that 2-0 win against G2 if it weren't for the sudden crash on Jame's PC during the 23rd round in Inferno. Suggest that you guys watch more of these games apart from the intent of seeing whether your bets/parlays secured but oh well.
I only watched a bit of the final and had to switch back to the PGL Major since i'm more hooked on the elimination matchups when the top teams are one series away from potentially being eliminated. Was also glad to see Brazil CS making a comeback @boltz as I miss the MiBR and Furia rivalries but alas those days are long gone. But hopefully we get to see paIN gaming and Imperial Esports take their place as the king's of Brazil from now on!  Seen Valorant on my what's new feeds while looking for the matches for this weekend in PGL. But will check these tournaments out @Casdinyard and many thanks for mentioning about this forgotten esport. Watched the G2 match aswell @ralle14 and Virtus.pro got played by the likes of those samurais. FaZe Clan also advanced in the elimination games played yesterday. So we will see them take on Team Spirit later in the week. As well Team Vitality against Cloud 9. Should make for a good finals right at the end of March next weekend. |

Remember when the SEC was blind to what FTX was doing ahead of the biggest collapse of this huge cryptocurrency exchange. They held a large amount of Solana an altcoin which many toted as the one to replace ethereum. Well recently they auctioned off their rather large bag of SOL at a fraction of the cost. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-03-07/pantera-raising-money-to-buy-250-million-solana-holding-from-ftx-solWhy is this so important? The value of SOL has risen faster than both bitcoin and ethereum. Before the crypto rally it was priced at $18 after the collapse of FTX while they held a large amount of the tokens. But now it is seen as the next ethereum since it can do everything that blockchain can do with smart contracts but at a fraction of the cost in the gas fees so to transfer along it's own blockchain. Many of the projects related to NFTs, memecoins and WEB3 gaming have been migrating over to the Solana blockchain causing an enormous amount of traffic and thus causing the ecosystem to expand past even the Ethereum blockchain in usage. Now the SOL altcoin is worth just over $180 as of this article below was published. That is a 10x increase within less than 7 months:  https://coinedition.com/solana-surpasses-ethereum-in-daily-stablecoin-volume |

Interesting card in Atlantic City! Erin Blanchfield will have the crowd on her side since she is from New Jersey.
Didn't realize she is 12-1 but not as active since she fought Taila Santos back last August their previous fight cancelled.
While Manon Fiorot fought Rose Namajunas what doesn't seem that long ago and beat her in a good matchup.
These fight nights are getting better now closer to the big main event since they will be having a two week hiatus for Spring Break.

Yes, if.... the casino is open source, have onion address and support Monero. Crypto has been known for anonymity. During the early stage, we like to promote it using the words "decentralized" and "anonymous "
Crypto was never been decentralized and anonymous, except Monero. Bitcoin itself isn't even anonymous, but pseudonymous. Right now, The only danger of providing KYC is there’s no guarantee that casino can protect our credentials 100% against exploit. I have no problem providing KYC if there’s an assurance of safety on our data which casino nowadays is still not con that level that they can give us 100% protection from exploit because even themselves still getting exploited with tons of funds due to security breach.
You're hoping to big, right now... even the biggest centralized exchange i.e. Binance wasn't able to give assurance and security protection. If centralized exchange didn't get forced to protect user data and security protection, crypto casino wouldn't get forced too. Can a casino platform ever be open source? Believe I have seen templates used and they just change the name of the site and they are off & running and business begins coming in. Monero had something happen to it a couple of months ago. Something to do with the developers. It caused the value to drop suddenly for the altcoin. So not too certain a developing casino would want to support a coin if it starts to show any sort of problems to do with it's development team. |

So many bad spots for Redbull in the last 2 weeks right ? They have internal problems ( bigger and bigger ) , they have a bit of drivers problems ( Perez seems to be forgotten in that team in 2024 season ) and now they seems to have small car issues that might transition from a race weekend to another. Also , I'm very mad on McLaren and hopefully Piastri will keep this in his mind for the next races and whenever he will get that full green light , no one will be able to stand and face Piastri on track. This kid is the next gem in F1 and I pray Max will still have a championship car where Piastri will have his.
They had just replaced the power unit on Verstappen's car so this could of caused the problems in that turn when Sainz overtook him causing the problems like a domino effect. Just look at what his rear tire looked like when he pulled into the pits on the lap where he had to retire:  Way too much damage to the entire wheel well. The brakes caught on fire and of course the tire melting causing the cloud of black smoke while driving into the pit lane. Just finished seeing the crash at the end of Russell and surprised they didn't red flag it either. Cars were still coming in and had to avoid the Mercedes turned on it's side. Instead the race ended under a safety car for the last lap where Leclerc was only a second and half behind Sainz. We will be having another two weeks off before the next race. Enough time for Red Bull to figure out the issues and get Verstappen back on course. |

Australia, back in the day first race too, is quite tough at the first turn and that's the place where all the "fun" could happen if anything happens. I do not see how that would change any other way, if the first turn of the first lap, like right into the race, nothing big happens then the rest of the race nothing will follow. Because, we already know Red Bull is good, and nobody wants to risk making a pass there, they will just pass at the straight and not really put any danger anywhere else.
I think the race also has pretty good and less risky places to pass all over, so if nothing bad happens at the start then rest of the race will be boring to watch. At this point the only thing we care about will be who will be the second and third team, and Ferrari may actually do better here.
Think it was in the first lap which all the problems started happening to RB & Mercs. Hadn't watched the race as it was freaking 1 am in the morning and nobody has got time for that nonsense after a fun Saturday night out. They will re-televise the race in it's entirety so will be able to witness what occurred then. Don't think they have released who would be racing for Ferrari yet.
As with what happened to him, it wasn't released until the day of qualifying. I remember that cause there was a blank spot on the markets without Sainz name there ahead of the Q1 race for a couple of hours.
I would suspect they will have the rookie continue on until Carlos fully recovers. Why put stress on him since with the sitting in the car and the vibrations of the track while in the cockpit of the F1 car could cause those stiches to reopen.
There is an update on Carlos Sainz's condition. Source: Formula 1 official websiteIt looks like he is set to be back in his seat for this race week. He made a statement about his current condition and it was positive. This is pretty good news for Ferrari. I really admired Bearman's performance in his first experience but it is much more important for the team to have one of their main drivers back. We can see Ferrari collecting many more points this week if things don't go south. Because you know how often Ferrari has had problems in the recent years. He must of recovered quickly enough so that he took this race and on home ground, so well done to Sainz because from what I remember an announcer saying earlier it had been only two weeks since he was cut open to have his appendix removed. https://abcnews.go.com/Sports/sainz-wins-melbourne-weeks-appendicitis/story?id=108441778You were spot on with your predictions for a Ferrari collection of points from Melbourne. |

Yes it would be also be based on how many deposits from what is stated on their promotions page shown below:  "Earn more rewards with every deposit." But of course you need to make a worthy one such as 1mbtc and bet the entire amount of those deposits before they would consider giving the reward. I am certain they manually review each accounts eligibility to make sure each one is legitimately rewarded. And yes, I believe $20 would be the minimum given from what others have said about the discussion on their reward amount on this promotion so far. Well I made $10 deposit just to test though so probably I will know by friday if Im eligible for the free bet. Anyway the amount is probably different depending on when did you click on the opt-in button on the first time. As for me I clicked it on $50 so probably I'll get this amount but even if I ended up getting nothing, its not really a biggie. Received my freebet right on at the time they sent them last week and it matched to the same amounts I deposited in the previous week. Used it and won over $54usdt but only lost by 1 leg on a 5 game parlay. So well worth the game play since I won all my previous weeks bets. @CLS63 Saw you had a winning bet on ZED Run aswell. So well done and congrats to you! UConn won their match and it looks like all the #1 seeds will be going on to the next round in the NCAA tournament. Just watching North Carolina vs Michigan State and it is no contest for the Tar Heels. But the second half has just begun. Really good tourney so far going into March Spring Break! |

Right now , I'm hoping to see a 3rd map between paIN gaming and MongolZ as these 2 teams have a lot of young talents whiting their team like Techno on MongolZ or lux on paIN Gaming.
The third map of their series somehow ended with the craziest back-and-forth lasting 40 rounds in total. It was sloppy for both teams, and I think that's what made the series interesting. We have to remember, these are the first majors with all teams playing in this new format of going only to 13 rounds unless going to OT under source 2. Imperial seem to be lacking that quality play they started off with in this tournament losing to Team Vitality yesterday and now to FaZe Clan today. |

During this event, it was not that awe not like the main events for the UFC this was just a fight night but because I was bored and had nothing to do I might aswell take my time in making my predictions on some of the fights, and this event was UFC Fight Night: Ribas vs. Namajunas I hate watching all women division whether it is boxing or MMA as it is not the same as watching with the guys fight, but seeing that this is a little different as both Ribas and Namajunas are interesting fighters here are my pick.
Amanda Ribas VS Rose Namajunas
Even though I don't like the women's fights this is kind of interesting as for the odds it is 2.75 for Amanda Ribas and 1.46 for Rose Namajunas, for this fight I think Manon Fiorot is a better striker than Amanda Ribas even though Rose Namajunas lost to Manon for sure Rose Namajunas is a cleaner striker than Ribas, because Amanda Ribas got those 1 and 2 combination but that was it she doesn't have a better output with her striking so for me I think I will go with Rose Namajunas.
Edmen Shahbazyan VS AJ Dobson
For this fight, the odds were 1.50 for Edmen Shahbazyan and 2.60 for AJ Dobson for me Edmen Shahbazyan is a better striker than AJ Dobson even though he got a lot of trouble when it comes to great grapplers I think that AJ Dobson is not a great grappler yes he can take the fight to the ground but Edmen Shahbazyan has great takedown defense and it was already improved since then for sure the fight will be on a favor for Edmen Shahbazyan so my pick is Edmen Shahbazyan.
Payton Talbott VS Cameron Saaiman
In this fight, the odds are 1.64 for Payton Talbott and 2.27 for Cameron Saaiman, for this fight Cameron Saaiman is great with his ground game and both fighters are great prospects so this is going to be a good match for sure, but Payton Talbott for me has good striking and even though Cameron Saaiman has wrestling it is not that smooth and Talbott's takedown defense is improving for sure so my take in this fight I think that Payton Talbott could win I like his striking so my pick is Payton Talbott.
Have the same selection for the last pick of yours on my parlay for this UFC event which begins in the next few minutes. Payton Talbott is a favorite to win same as Karl Williams. So put them both along with the underdog Ribas as a single. Not sure what state of mind Namajunas is in from fight to fight so don't want to rely on this and her end up losing again as she did against Manon Fiorot. |

Another massive victory from Imperial against VP but I must say VP can't win forever with that saving strategy but the current meta of CS is to save where even 4 vs 5 so in the long term , I can already see VP winning a major. Until then , I'm super curious to see how Imperial will do in this major but also if G2 can finally win something with Niko because the guy deserves a trophy!
Amazing victory and missed it until you mentioned it because hltv has their news feed bumped up so quick. Noticed VP form has declined since last I seen them play, so maybe it was Imperial's time. Niko hasn't on a major yet? Thought they won one last year. Could be mistaken aswell. FURIA is back to another 0-2 start again lol, the bad seeding fucked them and it only got worse because a few good teams dropped their opening match. Another massive victory from Imperial against VP but I must say VP can't win forever with that saving strategy but the current meta of CS is to save where even 4 vs 5 so in the long term , I can already see VP winning a major. Until then , I'm super curious to see how Imperial will do in this major but also if G2 can finally win something with Niko because the guy deserves a trophy!
I also didn't expect Imperial to beat VP, but they're unfortunate to get paired by Spirit with a 13-2 scoreline, and out of the teams with the same record they have to face Vitality later today. Congratulations on the betslip you had them beating GL live. Nice odds too! So they are up against Team Spirit? They have been all over the board so if Imperial is to beat them now is their time to do it. With sporadic inconsistent form as of late. |

UFC Vegas 89 is in full gear with media day yesterday showing what the main event fighters are thinking ahead of their bouts.
At first I was going to side with Namajunas but then just as you explained, this would only her second fight at this weighclass. And Fiorot seemed to dominate her during this entire bout except for near the ending of the fight.
So I will be going with Ribas on this one. She has the experience fighting at this weight.
We will see how it goes at the weigh-ins tomorrow.

It has been a rather interesting past few months when the spot ETF was approved for bitcoin. We had seen it reach all time highs of over $73,337 on some exchanges then plumet down to $63,600 from what we just seen it do yesterday. This is a good article to see what the bitcoin halving will do with these inflows and outflows and how it will affect the price in the coming month when it actually does occur: https://bitcoinmagazine.com/markets/impending-halving-creates-chaos-and-opportunity-in-bitcoin-market |
