To be honest, the thing that entices me to bet on Donaire here is the odds, he is the underdog and I like his odds though his chances are really low IMO. However, since Donaire said he will not be the same in the first fights, that gives me as a bettor some confidence in betting on him.
Donaire saying that he has improved since their last fight is just a promotional thing for me. Even if he has improved, it won't happen overnight, and considering that he has aged that would be hard also for him to change his fighting style. Donaire was doing good in their first fight, it just that the punches he threw were not enough to knock Inoue out. Same with you, I'm rooting for Donaire because of the odds and of course, he is my compatriot lol. As the saying goes, you can't teach a old dog a new trick, so maybe Donaire just telling this to hype the fans so that they are eager to see what's Donaire's improved in this second fight. But as we all know, he has lived with his left hook so this will still be his main weapon against Inoue. Maybe though he has regained his confidence back after losing because he was able to make a huge comeback and win back to back and score a knock out against young fighters. |

Investors have taken out 10 billion dollars out of tether in these past few weeks according to The GuardianYou can visuals it better by looking at their marketcap graph: https://imgur.com/Q5s0Sgkas you can see this has never happened before and the people who are selling out their USDTs are not your average joes but rather the whales,so what do you think ? Do they know something we dont ? I think investors must have think that maybe a similar thing could happen to Tether like the UST of Terra. So maybe they are slowly withdrawing some it and now up to 10 billions have been taken out in the past few weeks. Of course, for average joe this is scary and alarming because this could mean another crypto bloodbath. Hopefully though those whales are putting it back in the market in other forms of crypto, like bitcoin and any other solid altcoins. |

I will never ever believe with any tokens that listed on yobit. This is another scam token. It's better if you never try to deal with this token. Yobit is a very well known as the worst exchange site. This has been scamming so many people that registered as its users. There are bunch of complaints for yobit and none of these complaints ever got resolved. This is a scam. There will no be squid game token.
Yobit + this kind of projects? perfect marriage of a scam. So I wouldn't be surprised if Yobit allow it to be listed on their exchange because of their reputation. It's just sad that there are still investors willing to take a big risk on such projects when we all know that they might rug pull and exit scam anytime. So even if it increase ten fold, I still wouldn't invest my money on them. And for those who have been in crypto for so long, Yobit is one exchange not to be trusted. |

I must indicate that I'm very contented with the Celtics win last night. They were already the favourite side of the game in the first place but it was still Heat we were talking about. It isn't easy to beat them in this season. Celtics won two times in a row and got 3-2 ahead in the series as well. Something is going on really wrong with Heat now and I hope to see Celtics finishing up the series next time. But something inside me says that the series will be 3-3 first and after that Celtics will make it to the finals by 4-3.
For one, it seems that Butler and Lowry are still feeling the effects of their injuries. Second, there are no bench scoring for them, the Sixth man of the year is injured, third, they played poor defense and they are being outrebound by the Celtics in this series. Yes, why not 3-3 next game and Heat coming back right? But not sure because Boston is having this kind of momentum and they can't allow a team like the Heat forcing them a game 7 because they will lose their home court advantage. |

In game 4, this round is exaggerated. Injuries from the description maybe there haven't been any results, both the Celtics and heat, who got more injured. But the difference in points in Game 5 and injuries are minimized. I hope the road in Game 6 can be more conducive. If it's hot it will be lower of course celtich has good enthusiasm. and maybe he will take advantage of that fight in the future
The difference in points in round 5 makes predictions almost slim. But this year's NBA Finals will be exciting
I think this series is going to end in game 6, Heat has no answer on the Celtics, their main scorer Jimmy Butler has been struggling in the last 2 games already. In game 5, he only score 13 points from a very poor shooting with 4-18, if Butler continues to struggle, then Celtics will go to the NBA Finals. That's the problem that Heat needs to address if they still want to extend the finals, they should work as a team because Celtics are really dominating the series but of course there's still a chance for Heat to tied the series. Celtics should not be more complacent here, better to stay focus and try to finish the series and go to the NBA Finals. Butler should step up and do better on the do or die game, it's not too late yet. It's too late already, if Heat would want to win, they should do it on their home court, but they failed in game 5 and it was not even a close game, so their chance of winning now is very low. Game 6 is going to be a do or die game for both teams, at least Celtics should think that way as heat will gain the momentum if they will allow the Heat to win in game 6. Too early to say but I agree, Heat should be able to win on Game 5 but failed to do so, most probably game 6 will in favor to Celtics since its their home court advantage and the momentum is with them. If Game 6 goes to Heat there's a high chance for them to get the championship, luck can still be on their side. Eastern conference are more intense since we saw the two teams really fighting neck and neck, whoever wins on this two team the NBA finals will become more exciting. There should be no room for error for them in the next 2 games. Although it can be done, but their chances are slim. Now they have to go to Boston Garden wherein they were eaten alive in the first quarter alone, 18-1 run. And then the injuries are pilling up, Herro is out, Butler and Lowry is still feeling some pain and not fully recovered. Only Bam is taking the load but he was check by Big Al and Williams. And then their medical team doing a great job on Tatum's injury. Celtics will go to the NBA finals next game. |

Well right now is the best time to do it since they can gauge the level between them for about 50/50 because of what happened to Canelo's last fight and it could be one of the most exciting fights of this year since both of them are capable of giving us surprise win. I hope this fight will not reach the official's decisions because I find that boring and they really need to do some work in the early rounds where the exchange of punches is intense and one of them might be about to go down in that exchange of power punches.
Agree with this. Golovkin has the motivation to take revenge for what Canelo did to him in their match in 2018 while Canelo might be experiencing a minor setback due to his unexpected loss. GGG is still strong considering his previous fight after his defeat to Canelo. I think I will go for GGG this time because Canelo is overconfident when he knew that his record and skills are greater than the opponent. This is the case why he lose to Bivol and I think this will happened in this upcoming trilogy. I preferred to watch this fight rather than the rematch with Bivol. Hopefully, we might see a K.O in this fight. I'm up to believe Canelo will win against GGG and then ask for rematch against Bivol. This I think is his best path to go forward or hang the gloves already for he is getting old. Canelo vs GGG is a way to make him more money and at the same time will move him in the right direction again. So if he loses against GGG, that would be it confirming he is infirmed. And will have 3rd loss whoever his next fight will be. True, get over with GGG first and then rematch Bivol for a bigger payday. Not just the best path, but it's the only way for him to regain his place as one of the greats. Just imagine, beating GGG in a rematch an then going after Bivol and win. Setup their trilogy and beat him in the 3rd match. That will be the perfect scenario for Canelo and perhaps this is what they are hoping to happen in the future. That's on the positive side of Canelo, but, what if GGG will beat Canelo in this fight? What would be the next step for Canelo, for sure there's no more rematch with Bivol, I guess? Actually, GGG is not an easy opponent, that's why fans are asking for this trilogy because they are not convince that Canelo beat GGG in the last 2 fights. If he Canelo loses to GGG then maybe for sure there will be no rematch with Bivol. And maybe fighters like Benavidez are going after GGG for his belt at 168 lbs because Canelo will be very vulnerable that time. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the fight is on 168 lbs right? So GGG will have to go up 8 lbs heavier? So if he wins then he will have the 168 lbs belt that Canelo has. So there will be a lot of scenarios if GGG win. |

Yes I dont think anyone figured the Alcaraz match was going to be a 5 setter, judging
by the pre-match odds anyway. I only saw the last set and Alcaraz's odds were 1.15.
Yes, and if I'm not mistaken, the handicap is like -7.5 or higher for him. I didn't bet though, maybe later when I look at the odds and who is facing each other. That was a great test for him, his press conference revealed that he is very mentally strong and said he remained positive right up to the last point. Zverev had a tough match while Nadal and Djokovich came through as expected.
Tricky one up next for both Korda and Alcaraz when they face each other
Same with Zverev, another come from behind win for him as well. It seems that he is tired on the 5th set and on the verge of losing. But he manages to survived and broke Baez. |

Is buying bitcoin right now the same with buying later?
Technically it's not the same, the price right now is about $29k, but maybe later it will be $19k (according to you), so that's a huge drop so your fiat can buy more bitcoin at the latter's price. I stopped buying because it looks like Bitcoin dips isn't over, imagine buying at 19k per Bitcoin, I think the whole idea of investment is when you are buying not running after the best coins in the market, buying them cheap is better or I don't get it?.
Well the point is that we don't know if the dip is over or if the price will continue to decline in the next couple of months to the point of capitulation at $19k. So there is no right or wrong answer here, if you buy now and then and then the price goes down then buy more. If the price goes up after buying at $29k then you made a small profit already. |

This is only possible with a healthy Jimmy Butler on the roster of Heat. There's a news that he is questionable to play in game 4 while Celtics will not repeat their mistakes in game 3 and obviously adjust there strategy to match up Adebayo aggression. They have Theis to stop him by force if Butler will not return in the rest of the game. Jimmy Butler has a lot of injury reports on this season and this might be bad news to Heat if he will not come back healthy to stop Boston counterattack against them. We already witness how they manage to come back against strong opponents when they Beat Bucks in game 7 match.
Heat without Butler is very easy to beat by Boston with a complete package of attack and defence roster.
Regarding health, so are Jayson Tatum and Marcus Smart. They are in probable status and the decision will be before game time if they will play or not. Remember that twisted ankle by both players? I think Smart's case is the worst but he got back into the game although it's obvious he is still in pain. This series may become unpredictable if both teams' starters will be out. Butler is a big piece for a win but the bench managed to finish it in 2nd half of Game 3. I think Miami Heat will possibly win this if ever the injury cases get worst. Yes, if Smart and Tatum can't play then all advantage will go to Heat. Even if Butler can't play there are a lot of players that can step up, we've seen Bam and Lowry do that in game 3. So I might favor the Heat if that will be the scenario at game time (no Smart and Tatum). And if the Heat win, it's going to be 3-1 and most likely they will win the series against Boston. |

Anyone experienced or suffered from this, whether from winning or from losing where a particular gambling session keeps staying in your mind and you'll having sleeplessness thinking about that particular session over and over again, the same bet keeps repeating over and over again and you keep asking yourself what if you do the opposite.
I'm glad I overcome this and I see to it now that whenever I'm login off to casinos I'm playing I will not think about it whether I lose or win.
Definitely, gamblers whether winning or losing will have to think of other scenarios that could have happen before he sleeps. Might be a sign though that you might be addicted, in the beginning I also have the same experience. But as I mature as a gambler, specially playing with the money that I can afford to lose. Then regardless of the outcome I can sleep better after playing. |

Guys, I've been looking at some data from the games between Dallas and Warriors...
Even though the GSW are not the same team from the previous season, do you imagine they can beat the Mavericks 4-0??
Or will Dallas can win 1 or maybe 2 games in these series?
What is your opinion!!?
ps: although in the last game, Luka was on fire and scored 42 points
Experience-wise, this series may go 4-0. Luka is okay, but his teammates look to be in panic with the Warriors' defense. Their normal three-point percentage went low. Dinwiddie stepped up his game today but still not enough. Bullock and Finney-Smith should also do the same but we didn't see that. Worse, Bullock was 0 point and 0-7 at outside shots before and after he was hurt with the collision against Wiggins. Speaking of Wiggins, that guy is legit. He was overrated in the Draft as they said but now he is showing why. I guess just having a good team is what he needed for his skills to come out. Wiggins is actually good, it's just that he hasn't found a good team before, but now that he is with the Warriors, he is willing to play on the role the coaching staff will give to him, which makes him better and the Warriors team in overall. This series will not go 6 games, if Dallas wins game 4, the Warriors will certainly end this in 5. I agree it seems that he found his home with the Warriors right now and rediscover how good he really was. Anyone see that massive dunk he did against Luka? although the referee killed but one of the best dunk (together with his dunk against KAT). I doubt that Dallas can bounce back, no one does. Maybe they will got 1 win but that's it. |

Seeing Alcaraz having an easy 3 set game winner against Londero.
And it's interesting that Djokovic, Nadal and Alcaraz are on the same bracket in this tournament. And another thing is that Alcaraz is getting more media exposure that Djokovic and Nadal combine. Hopefully though, Alcaraz will not succumb to this big pressure grand slams and hopefully he can win one.

I followed where my heart is but only in cheering them.  I haven't made a bet because there was no sure commitment on both Kyle Lowry and P.J. Tucker to play. And Boston Celtics was playing at home. It was indeed a great game. Unbelievable. I thought the Heat are losing after that wild Celtics rally with a very very loud Boston crowd. In the end Miami Heat won without their main guy. I think Erik Spoelstra is one of the best if not the best coach at the moment. Looking at his line up compared to other teams. And he managed to top the East. And thru the years, Miami Heat is always in the playoffs contending with star-studded teams. I think that's good enough. Cheering for a team is what they got them going. Fan base. The game 3 made me realize something. The Miami Heat where just shocked with the change of roster by the Boston Celtics. Suddenly in Game 2 they had Marcus Smart and Big Al and they played well. But now I see they are still a mismatch for them. First, deep bench. They may end up losing 1 more but they can adjust pretty well and now they have the upper hand again. So, it might go Game 6 or 7 but if the Heat just keeps on adjusting they will win the series. Very hard to predict but yeah, most likely game 6 or 7 to decide who are going to win. So it's good to see that Bam has finally had a break out game. And Lowry coming back in a boost to the team and then those 3 points, it's the ice breaker for them. So Boston needs to win the next game to tie the series and then will go for a steal win in Miami just like they did against the Bucks. Tatum injury and if he can't play will be a big factor for the Celtics. |

I don't know, many investors have lost trust on Do Kwon already. On the contrary, I don't think that UST can re-peg just like that. The question is who is willing to buy it at this price and hope to make money in the future? Investors are not that dumb to make the same mistakes again.
The damage has been done already, and it's time for him to face the music as the South Korean government is after him because of the massive lost of investors on his project.

I haven't seen a whole lot of speculation on these boards recently about who McGregor will be fighting next. From the looks of his body, he's been focusing a lot of his training on getting a massive upper body while recovering from his horrific leg injury. I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't get a UFC title shot like he wants and maybe has to resort to going for another payday style boxing match like he did with Mayweather. That seems to be popular these days. I'm not sure who he would face... I don't think he wants to go the Jake Paul route, but maybe Canelo in a boxing match?
After his failure to capture the presidency of the Philippines, rumors have it that Manny Pacquiao is contemplating on a boxing return so I would not be surprised if it will be against McGregor. At an age of 42, I think Manny still can give McGregor a competitive fight in boxing and this is not very hard to promote and money will be flowing on this promotion I think. As most fans that support Pacquaio has predicted, Manny will lose the Presidency in Philippines. But if he wanted to make a comeback and generate huge money, then yeah, McGregor could be beneficial for him and it's going to be a win-win for both. Manny can still make fans buy his ticket even if it is an exhibition match and I think that he can still fight despite his age, the power might diminished, but the motivation and the hunger could still be there for him. |

The next 2 games will be on Dallas, let's see if the Mavericks can bounce back as this time, it will be on their advantage.
We are going to find out tomorrow, Mavericks have to win the game, or else they'll be out already in the playoffs with a 3-0 score. Why? because no team has ever come back from a 3-0 deficit, that's in the history of the NBA. The reason why Mavericks are -2 tomorrow is because they need to win the game. Dallas are good at home, in fact they beat the Suns on their home court, so I think they can do the same with the Warriors. They understand the risk of getting eliminated if they lose the game tomorrow, so expect a big run by the Mavericks as they usually win by huge number. Yes, I love the chances of Dallas to at least win 1 game in their home court to stop the bleeding. They shoot very good as well at home, Finney-Smith, Bullock, Bertans can lead a avalanche of 3's and maybe that will give them enough separation against the Warriors. But we all know that there's no lead that is safe against a team like the Warriors so Dallas should played solid 48 minutes of basketball. Unlike in game 2 wherein they collapse in the 3rd, they can't allow that to happen again. |

On the contrary, I think average joe might think that bitcoin might be a good option for them. And I don't think that fees will be a big hindrance. What if there are countries that will accept bitcoin as legal tender in the future? We have one right now and it could have a domino effect and those average joe will have to used bitcoin. And this is not the first time that we have heard this kind of argument against bitcoin and yet it continue to flourished and mostly those average joe are using it.

Im holding. Not just holding, but also buying more bitcoin. People selling at dips and fomo buying at highest price all fools. Everytime it goes down everyone gets worried its going to zero. So they dont buy when they should be buying. I dont think bitcoin will ever go to zero. Some altcoins future got erased with this tho.
Good for me, simple and yet very effective strategy in a bear market. For me, I have to learn it the hard way, but during the tail end of the bear market and the start of a bull run, was able to hold and save a lot of bitcoin so it's a win win for me. For the price going below, again, this is a good opportunity to buy. And it seems this price range will stay for us for quite some time now so don't missed it. |

Last day of the SEA games today and for Indonesians and Filipino users in this forum, we have a great game today. This will serve as the game for the gold medal because both teams have 0 loses and whoever comes out on top of the standings will get the gold medal, no championship game for this format.
Indonesia is fast catching up on the Philippines in this sport and for today's game, i think the latter looks vulnerable as Gilas don't have a solid lineup so what do you think guys?
But I think the Philippines can still win the gold here. I do agree that it might be one of the worst delegates they sent in this game, nevertheless they are still looking good in this Sea games. I agree though that Indonesia is fast catching up as far as basketball is concern in Southeast Asia but then again, Philippines is not sending it's full force here. |

Begin learning and researching on which projects will survive this bear market. It is very clear that a bullish argument for good projects with good development teams have been made stronger today. After more dumps on the market are made, the investors will move more to seek value projects for holding than seek projects for short term and midterm trading and speculation.
Much of the projects in the market will never pump and never reach all time high again. However, there might be 5% of altcoin projects that are presently being prepared to create their all time highs when the market recovers. This is a market for investing in good development teams. The time of marketers and shills are over.
I think now is the right time to buy altcoins that have strong fundamentals and are able to survive the current market conditions, and now that many altcoins are down so we should take advantage of this situation to buy some altcoins as a long term investment because I believe in a few months in the future market conditions will recover and altcoin prices will find ath highs again. Unless you think, this is not dip point don't buy at this market price since there is a room for a further drop on prices. The recovery will be slow but steady for many altcoins that have fallen down from the ATH price, the bull market cycle will happen right after the end of the bear market cycle. Since we don't know when the bear cycle ends, it is too early to invest. My suggestion is making investment in small steps and get a better average $ cost. Not sure when is the recovery though, so it won't be steady in my opinion. On the contrary, if bitcoin is to suffer for sure majority of the altcoins too and who knows some of them might not exist in the next bull run. So I will still be very cautious on what altcoins I'm going to invest. And consider to invest what you can afford to lose and then be patience because the recovery might take years. |
