1321  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Regis Prograis vs Devin Haney on: August 14, 2023, 03:48:31 PM
Wow! Some big drama show here. So from being friendly and hospitable to something different. The Haney's are working underground and are trying to change the signed schedule into something earlier and that's what made the champion Regis Prograis mad. I cannot believe Devin at this young age is already trying to lowball his opponent. And I am glad that Regis is standing his ground and is sharing this with the public.

So Devin Haney after becoming undisputed all of a sudden is trying to exploit and avoid riskier opponents as much as possible. First, he does not want to give Lomachenko his well-deserved rematch. Then he offered a laughable 25% PPV share on Shakur, his WBC mandatory. He said he wants to move up in weight at the same time hostage all the belts at 135. He wants to move up in weight but he doesn't want to fight the new lineal champion of 140, Teofimo Lopez. He wanted the WBC champion Regis Prograis after its very poor performance in the last fight. And Devin is not yet satisfied so he wanted Regis to not take a full rest from his previous 12-round fight and forced him to a schedule with less training time. I hope this kid gets clipped. Cheesy

Source: Regis Prograis Angry on Devin Haney

Ok if I got it right, they already agreed and sign the contract and so they have the date already settled, then suddenly, they wanted to change the fight date much earlier?

Yeah, it's weird though, question is why they want the date to be change in the first place? They can't reason out that the venue is not ready or something. If they have sign a contract then for sure they already have a place for that. Not sure what to take from this drama, but definitely, this is a bitch-ass move by the Haney to derail Regis plan.

It should be easy because Regis Prograis can always weave what they have discussed because of this nonsense move made by Haney and his camp, not sure what they thought by the way that led them to this but they just made themselves a huge embarrassment for trying to pull this trick. Also, if there was already a signed contract then this should be a done deal already, nothing will be changed unless if there were some injuries or emergencies.

There shouldn't be an issue because he chose this path for a reason where he will be needing to jump weight classes and it will be a big embarrassment if he will starts making an excuse upon his defeat because people already know the chances beforehand and it's not that he is expected to make a miracle. He just should just stick with it and move on but if in case he wins, he can have all the credit for it because it will mean that he will be the new undisputed at 168. But first, we'll see what he can do against Canelo.

We will know more of that once the both of them is done sharing the same stage as either way, only one will come out smiling and winning in this fight because I don't think that a draw is one of the possible outcomes in this fight. And so, I guess we should rule that out too.

As per speculations, it is not that shocking anymore that people are rooting for Canelo over Charlo because how can we go against the undisputed champion if the challenger isn't even from super middleweight division.

Yes, learn to control yourself during gambling is difficult enough because the feeling of excitement can overshadow other feelings that help make rational decisions, but once you learn to do it gambling will appear before you in a completely different light. In fact, a person who has learned to control himself and his desires can get a lot more advantages, not just a responsible attitude to gambling. So in my opinion it is a very useful life experience.

This is the most difficult part of gambling despite exploring all the techniques it would still require some discipline for one to be able to control himself over the kind of amount they should gamble with and also how regularly they should place bet in a day, week and month. That is why whatever that makes a gambler strike a winning it gives them more confident and hope to put more effort to continuously gamble.

And that is exactly what these casinos are looking for because they are taking advantage of the fact that there are only few people in this world who can control themselves fully without putting their emotions behind the wheel, and the other perks is that they can always ban some gamblers whom they think that is too competitive to their business that could likely drain their money even if that's not much compared to what they are earning in a single day. That is why self-discipline is important, but that thing cannot be acquired overnight because you have to work yourself out for that.
1324  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How was your first experience with gambling? on: August 14, 2023, 10:57:40 AM

That reads a lot like the stereotypical drug addiction ad... I can see the sketchy looking dude saying to you "the first one is free", and then a jump to a drug addict on the streets a few months later.

Casinos are a money making machine, even more than drugs, because you can only consume a certain amount of drugs per day, but you can bet all your life savings in a single day.

Most of the time the people who consume the drugs for free,because the first drug is sponsored by their friends.The People use to give free drugs to their friends because they will act as the company to them in the near future.Like wise,most of the time gambling site give the people the free bonus.The gambler will get additional bonus on their deposit to the gambling sites.Casino is the golden resort to get more money by using it.It's true the drug doesn't give the user to earn money,but the gambling site will do.
So the casino will probably be like that advertisement where the casino offers, "come on, let's play just once and have fun," and we finally give it a go. And after getting the fun of it, we start to think it's okay to gamble with small money. Finally we return to gambling after a few days but unfortunately, it is not accompanied by good self-control so we become addicted like addicted to drugs. And that's what we experienced when we first learned about gambling and maybe there are many other examples because the experience of everyone who knows about gambling will be different.

It's all a business folks, there will be always two sides of the coin, one is on the upper side while the other one is on the bottom and by the bottom, I meant gamblers who are losing almost every single day and even if they won (which happened occasionally), it wouldn't be that much to say that things will be even against the casino. And the casino is indeed a money making machine because they are legal, while drugs aren't when the bottomline is both of these things are destroying people's lives.

The Athletic is reporting that the Philadelphia 76ers are refusing to trade James Harden and requesting him to appear in training camp. However, James Harden has said he has no plans to play for the 76ers this year and won’t be attending training camp. We’ve got ourselves a bit of a stand-off situation to start the 2024 season.
Now we are seeing a drama again with Harden. Kawhi has been with a lot of dramas because of his injuries, and load management, but Harden is a lot worse than him.
I mean coming out very fat with the Rockets, this feeling where he's like the boss of the Sixers and just saying things like that. Commissioner Adam Silver warned the league already after Lillard saying that he doesn't want to play except for the Heat, and for sure he will take measures for this one as well.

First it was Simmons who didn't want to play after what happened to him, and now Harden. I'm just a bit pissed with this players who they think that they are the authority, and they have the power to choose what they want to do like they're the boss of their own team. Like WTF!!!, and I hope that out Commissioner will not take this very lightly, and put sanctions to players who are acting like this. Overall, I will not be surprised if the Sixers will be forced to trade him before the season starts just because of how he is acting right now, or they will just let him stay with the Sixers since his contract will expire after this upcoming season.

Kawhi Leonard is different though because injuries are actually preventing him to play but if we take that out, we wouldn't be seeing any problems with his name. Moreover, these things weren't even a thing in the past but now they are giving these players more power that is why some of them are already asking for a trade after a single season with a failure that includes them on the equation why the whole thing didn't worked out. But I guess that it became a norm nowadays that these star players will just wash their hands and walk away if don't like how it goes.
1326  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Jake Paul Vs Nate Diaz boxing Aug 5th on Dazn PPV on: August 14, 2023, 07:47:00 AM
They’re saying that Nate Diaz walked away from this fight with Jake Paul having made over twenty million dollars. That is more than his entire career in the UFC. Say what you want about Jake Paul, but he helped Nate Diaz make more than his lifetime earnings in one night. This is why the UFC is trash and needs to be replaced with something better for the fighters.
This was boxing man, not MMA. This huge payday of Nate Diaz has absolutely nothing to do with the UFC. This fight was worth millions because it was a fight between Jake Paul and Nate Diaz and Jake Paul is great in marketing, you have to keep in mind his background, an youtuber guy, who was watching disney+ turned into a professional boxer in late adolescence. Guy mas millions of subscribers, don't forget that he is a brother of Logan Paul who is also enormously popular and famous. These guys are extremely wealthy, popular and marketing gurus too, the UFC has nothing to do with this pay, absolutely nothing. Also, this was a boxing match, not an MMA match.

Btw, I don't really understand what's the point of buying a ticket and PPV of the rigged match.

It's not totally rigged because we can only say that Jake Paul had 90% of chance to win, no guarantees despite having that much percentage because if Jake Paul's fight were rigged in the first place, he could've remained undefeated by now and defeated Tommy Fury on their fight in the past months. There is no certainty but we can already tell who will win, it's not that hard to figure out.

Not rigged but we both know their chances in the fight and that the chances of Nate Diaz won't even amount for us to start considering that he might win the fight, and which did happened just like how we forecasted it because there was no way that Jake Paul would lost the fight after having an embarrassment against Tommy Fury. But on their upcoming rematch, which is not yet sure for now, I think Nate Diaz will have the total control of the fight.

Well, if you can lend a cash advance to your worker so he can pay his debt on the betting agent, then problem solved. However, you cannot guarantee that the same scenario will not happen again especially that you are making things easier for your worker to gamble and lose his money in the end.

For me, I’d say the one at fault here is the gambler itself since he’s not supposed to gamble more than his income. And if by chance he’s just taking advantage from the agent’s offer without the intention to pay, then I must say the gambler is not a responsible and a reliable one especially when it comes to paying off his debt.

Bitcoin is indeed highly profitable at the moment so this is also one of my dreams to invest in bitcoin and make it as a retirement investment. But I’m also aware that despite of its high chances to make profits, the rate to easily lose your money is also high knowing bitcoin will always be a high risk asset and whoever invest in it without previous knowledge and experience will find it hard to reap its profits in the future. However, if you do your own diligence to research first before you invest, and understand the risk behind it, surely investing with caution will also create some positive results in the future.
1329  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling experience using loan money on: August 13, 2023, 03:56:37 PM
Gambling using a loan money is a big NO. The thing about using loan money for gambling is when you lose, you lose twice. It just doubles your regret, doubles the guilt, and doubles the money you lost. In the worst case, you will be possibly get into debt and that is something that we want to avoid. When I'm engaging to gambling I always tell myself to only risk something what I can afford to lose, in this way I am always reminded to not exceed my preferred amount for gambling. So, only gamble using your free money, but if you do not have any, better not to engage at all.
That is good advice we should keep in mind so we don't get into debt trouble. And it's true that we shouldn't borrow money to gamble; if we don't have money, it's better not to gamble. But unfortunately, that doesn't apply to people who gamble out there because they are still trying to borrow from other people, even though some borrow from different people. And when they lose and are billed to pay their debts to many people, they will need clarification and can only run away every time they are billed. It is already a big problem for us where we must pay all the debts at once or we will be arrested for not paying them.

Having a loan just for the sake of gambling alone will just add some problems to you in the future and whether you like it or not, the reality about gambling is that you are always bound to lose even before you start gambling. Also, why would you add some extra problems to your life if you already know that there are no certainties that your bet will always go through in that given day. That's just a wishful thinking without weighing the situations carefully, sooner or later, don't be surprised if you are already digging your own grave.
1330  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Canelo Alvarez vs Jermell Charlo - September 30th in Las Vegas on: August 13, 2023, 03:28:56 PM
     

Canelo Alvarez’s next fight had been rumoured to be Jermall Charlo, but instead it is twin brother Jermell Charlo facing the Mexican on September 30; Canelo is the undisputed world champion at super-middleweight, with Jermell jumping up two weight divisions from super-welterweight

https://www.skysports.com/boxing/news/12183/12912747/canelo-alvarez-to-face-jermell-charlo-in-undisputed-las-vegas-showdown-on-september-30

If anybody sees odds for the fight please share in the thread.

Thanks.

Mike Tyson himself had something to say about this fight. He seems to believe that Jermall Charlo is going to lose this fight and that Canelo Alvarez will easily beat him, without much of a struggle. Charlo said "Mike Tyson is Mike Tyson — he could say whatever he wants". But I think that the winner is going to be obvious here and Mike, with his years of expert experience, saw it coming. Sure Charlo had a good rise from his weight division but he is still not ready for Alvarez. Ambition combined with pure and unadulterated willpower alone cannot win fights for very long.

I guess we don't need to be a Mike Tyson so see who is going to win this fight. I mean, Charlo is good at 154 lbs, but this is a totally different league for him at 168 lbs and this is the best weight class for Canelo Alvarez.

14 lbs is too huge of a difference.  A tough 168 lbs fighting a  154 lbs even if this 154 lbs is a heavy hitter does not need any special ability to see who is at the advantage.  Even if we consider Charlo's punching power is devastating at 154 lbs, he is fighting a tough opponent that can absorb heavy punches from light heavyweight opponent.  And they are fighting at the most comfortable division of Canelo.  So almost all odds are against Charlo.  Even speed is against Charlo on this because adding more weight will hamper is agility.


Might be more reasonable if this bout is catchweight but it isn't and that will really give Canelo an advantage in this fight because Jermell will have to face a lot of difficulties before he can reach Canelo's division and after that it's not yet over because he then will have to face a natural 168 lbs. boxer which is an added difficulty to him. Not sure how would this fight go for him but I know that it will always favor Canelo without a doubt.

I doubt that Canelo can go lower than 168 lbs though if they go for a catchweight. It will be draining for him as he is used to his weight and as we all know what when we grow older, we are bound to really gain weight so I don't think that catchweight is possible here.

So it's on Jermell side to really accept the fight or not. And in this case he is willing to go up in weight so we can say that the weight could not be an issue.

And it's interesting what I read that Canelo is targeting the twins, it was supposedly Jermall in this fight but his 154 lbs twin Jermell step up and take his spot. But if Canelo wins, it is said that he is going to fight Jermall the 160 lbs champion at 168 lbs.

The fact that this bout already materialized means that Charlo is eager and confident enough to go up in weight and skip some weight class just to fight Canelo at the latter's own dominant weight class. Not sure what he thinks by the way because I don't see any reasons why should I side him on this path or bet with him because he even pursued this fight without having any warm up for his inactivity.

For me, this is just a money fight and Charlo was already tired waiting for someone that can give him a competitive paycheck that is why he is now going to fight Canelo at 168 even if it that will mean that he will be stripped of his WBO or is it WBC and a possible lose as well.

What is the real reason why these two would fight each other? Because one told that he would beat other and the other person offered to tey it? That reason is so childish. Such calls for a fight stopped to look serious in school. These two are already adults. It is stupid to get offended on something on such an age and times of duels and white gloves slaps are gone.

That is the thing because there is exactly no reason why these two billionaires should prove themselves into a physical fight because that is not who they are, and they haven't got to where they are now because of fighting. Not to disrespect but physical fight shouldn't be their contest because they surely don't have any brute strengths to compete with.

Now when it comes to when did this flame started, I don't totally remember when and why because at first, I just thought that this is just a mere joke. Even now, I still think of the same thing.
Joke or not, it could be used as a major publicity stunt for both platforms. When this topic came out my 1st impression was that Elon would wipe the floor with the guy, but now my opinion has changed. Zuckerberg looks like he's in better shape and trains more.

That's what makes the people to be more curious if they are indeed making the fight happen because both of them are saying the same thing, it's not just a plain words because both of them are also having their respective preparations for the fight. But yes, I do agree with you, they have something different in mind that is why they are making these things and staying relevant to the public.

Tapos si Kai din yata nagprapractice narin, may mga lumutang na video nya sa social media at sana maganda ang pakita ng Pilipinas ulit ngayong tournament na to.
Siya din inaabangan ng marami pero sana maipakita din ng ibang Gilas players na hindi lang si JC o si Kai ang dapat abangan sa roster na ito. Ito kasing mga hype vloggers, puro Kai at JC pero lulutang naman yang ibang mga players at maha-highlight din kapag WC na.

Speaking of Kai Sotto, mukhang may isang problema na naman siyang kinakaharap kasi di pa siya sinasama sa scrimmage ng Gilas dahil umano may injury pa siya at hindi pa naipakita yong MRI result nya sa SBP, saklap naman nito mukhang some sort of punishment na naman to dahil sa hindi nya pagsali doon sa mga tune-up games sa China pero sana naman maayo nila kaagad to dahil kailangan talaga si Kai Sotto ng Gilas para sa depensa.

Ewan ko ba dito kay super coach, nabasa ko din yan kanina biglang sumulpot sa mga ads ata sa fb pero nagulat ako kasi may napanuod akong short vids na nagpapractice na sya nung dumating si JC, nandun na rin sya nakikipractice kasama yung ibang players ng National team, wala naman tayong magagawa kung bigla na lang mag decide si super coach na wag isama si Kai at mas piliin ung Ravena bros dahil sa dedication ng mga ito sa pagsali sa mga practice yun ata talaga ang pinagbabasehan, practice ka lang ng practice para hindi mahirap mamili kasi nandun ka naman palagi at naiinindihan mo yung plays unlike kay Kai na hindi nagpapapractice baka makagulo lang sa lineup at hindi naman sya katulad ni JC na proven na ang pagiging NBA star. Hhahaha... bahala na lang kayo umunawa sa opinyon ko mga kabayan!

Kung ganun eh may kinikilingan talaga at kawawa naman si Kai kung hindi makakapag laro dahil sa hindi pagkakaintindihan. Ok lang kung talagang may injury sya, pero kung pepersonalin na naman eh hindi maganda.

At kung papipiliin naman ako, no offense sa mga fans ng Ravena bros (never akong naging fan nila), pero ako sa Kai Sotto.

Pero tingnan na lang natin, baka pati nito eh maapektuhan is JC sa mga intriga hehehe.

Di malabong mangyari yan kabayan lalo na at malalaman ni JC na may di pagkakaunawaan sa team, syempre madadamay sya at baka mawalan nadin ng gana dahil nga ay naapektuhan na ang buong team dahil sa pangyayaring ito dahil hindi na nagiging maganda ang naging decision ni coach para sa team dahil lang sa simple misunderstanding na dapat nang nasolusyonan. Sana nga ay di naman tayo umabot dyan dahil masasayang lang din lahat ng pagod nila.

Yes, I agree. It is still premature to say that coach Pops will just be with the San Antonio Spurs for just a year specially when Wemby is still approaching his first season and rookie year in the NBA, and it was one of the reasons why the Spurs have convinced coach Pop to extend his contract. Needless to say, this will be not the end of it and coach Pop will soon find his answer again why should he stay for another season.
Wembenyama could end up getting injured or being a bust, cannot control if those things happen. If they did though, Pop might decide it's time to walk away. Spurs really need Wemby to have a monster season. If for nothing else than to keep their best coach ever interested in staying in coaching.

I get what you are saying but I don't think Pop is only gonna stay if wemby pans out.  He has won enough championships to cement his name in with the greatest coaches ever.  Unsure what his motivation is honestly.  They are a young team amd years away from competing for the chip.  Maybe this time around his motivation is to bring up these young kids.  Either way dude is a legend.

Motivation isn't something why coach Pop is staying with the Spurs because he was already approaching his retirement phase but the franchise insisted that he should extend his contract with them because they need his expertise to teach these young ones so that they will be an image of the team for the next couple seasons. Winning a championship wasn't the goal really because they already know that it will be too much to ask as Wemby is still approaching his rookie year, coach Pop will just be a lighthouse to the team to guide them.

So according to his family, he was drunk? It has nothing to do with the man being a gambler then. Is it not common to see in the news people doing something crazy either in the casino, in the park, building or it could be in any place? Drunk people have the tendency to do something irresponsible and being a gambler is not a pre-requisite.

Actually, most professional gamblers are not fond of getting drunk in a casino otherwise they cannot focus and will keep on losing money. I visited a popular and world-class casino twice and I seldom saw people drinking liquor heavily. 
I think that person do not only suffer from being drugged as what the family claims, but most probably he is also suffering from being mentally ill, perhaps because of his gambling addiction that made him lose a lot and lost his right thinking. Because let's face the reality that no matter how drunk a person is, if he is not mentally ill, he will not do any shameless act that will surely make him regret the day after that.

Main goal.of gambling is to give a satisfaction to the people who wants to play gambling some of them treat this as an entertainment purpose only but some of them make this too much serious they made the game as source of income reason why they urge to win but it's gambling the assurance right there is quite small unlike taking a business. In that case people keep chasing their losses and hoping to hit a jackpot in some point it's true but it does not always happen the house always wins the game.

The mistake of a gambler is when they make gambling the main source of making money and put it as the main goal in their life. When they make gambling the main activity in their life, of course there are many things they will sacrifice and that includes family. So there's no need to be surprised that most of the addicted gamblers don't have a good relationship with their families, because they really don't put it as a priority in their lives anymore.

That is what they failed to think because they haven't thought about it clearly and carefully before they started their career towards gambling, there may be some who had a successful path towards gambling but only selected few ones were able to pull that off but we cannot say that they haven't been through any difficulties. Even the successful gamblers like professional gamblers have their own investments on the side or other priorities in life that make them money because they know that gambling is not a long term thing.

Austin Reaves did an interview with the Nelk boys on their podcast and it was a good introduction to him and his personality. It seems like he’s got his head screwed on straight and he cleared the air about having never met Taylor Swift. If you like Austin and want to see him in a relaxed environment, I’d recommend searching out this interview on YouTube.

If in case the rumor were true after all, it's very understandable if Austin Reaves want that thing to be private because it will not help his career if those issues will always surround him while playing in the NBA nor Taylor Swift's personal career, he probably knew what will happen after then if he will confirm those rumors. And as long as there were no evidence to confirm the rumors, both of them will always choose to deny whatever it is.
1337  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you gamble because you don't have sufficient money? on: August 12, 2023, 11:32:01 AM
I think there are more people in the lower class and middle class compared to the really rich, because most of the people in the lower class are unemployed, and the majority of them also rely on easy and quick earnings and what they think of this card is gambling.

and those in the middle class also follow that somehow, because most of the rich people value money and to maintain it they build more businesses that can produce money.

Being in the lower class and hoping to win big one day is totally normal in my opinion. Some people can't live happily without that hope. And, in the lower class or not, you have the right to be happy. To satisfy that need you don't have to risk a lot of money. Buy a dollar lottery ticket once per month and hope for the best. But don't play in casinos thinking that a "winning strategy" will make you rich. Definitely don't rely on that.

I reckon that lottery is much more safe to play with because you don't have to have a big capital and it's not that you will be playing with it with a couple of hours where money is always running, it's just a dollar and a game of luck without doing so much effort in analyzing every set of game. You just have to have those lucky digits with you in-order to be lucky just like the few selected ones who was lucky enough to experience a win in the lottery.

Placing bets based on guesswork simply doesn’t work!
Everyone will bet when they get a good prediction and in this prediction gamblers usually always do research and analysis.
Even though it doesn't guarantee a win but such way is better than just guessing randomly to risk some money.

So, how can you break free from this cycle of losses?
No one can escape the cycle of losses because in the gambling industry all that is written before their eyes is defeat.
The only thing gamblers can do is reduce losses so that they are not too large.
Whatever type of gambling you’re into, the fact that you gamble means you allow yourself to lose. And there’s no way we can break that. That’s the reason why a gambler should only spend his spare money, because even if his intention is to get entertained, still he is losing his money for that.

Gamblers should be aware that there strong design to deceive when gambling. That’s why no matter how you see yourself winning in the middle of the game, in the end, you are still the one being taken advantage because what you won are just slowly returning to the house until you used up all what you got.

Based on my experience, gambling addiction may develop and grow in anticipation of future profits. It does not matter whether you have tasted some wins or not, but the fact that beginner gamblers are hunger with money and profits, then addiction will easily come to develop. However, in some gamblers, they only develop gambling addiction once they have experienced potential profits. Because they feel that if they continue gambling, there will be more profits waiting for them. That’s when reality sucks when all they gained are losses.

Gambling should only give an entertainment, but if gamblers will create another reason to gamble, that is where gambling becomes harmful to its players. That is why students and minors should never be given access to gambling because their minds are still limited. And they never see gambling to create pure pleasure but to appraise it as a means to create a living. I’m sure this student is just trying his luck to double his money, but when he started making potential profits at the middle of gambling, he decided to gamble all in anticipating that he’ll be in huge profits in the end. And then the opposite happens. Worst is that frustration kills this gambler and ended his life through suicidal which will only create bigger problems in reality.
