BetBoom has an easy path to reach the upper bracket and we might see another Gaimin Gladiators vs BetBoom final if every series goes as expected.

I also believe this. It should have been BB vs GG in Bali Majors if that Pure incident did not happen. Maybe we can witness it this time. They are the best team that can match GG in strength.
That's really possible and they're eager to beat GG because it's always been them that have became champs for many majors and tournaments. On this one, they want to win against them and not just that but also to take that $5M first prize. Right now, BetBoom is against 9Pandas and it's on a tie 1-1. Waiting for the 3rd map to commence. Whilst for GG, they've been beaten by Team Liquid on a 2-1 match. So, GG goes to the lower bracket and will be up against Tundra Esports tomorrow. I think the best match for today is Quest and Talon but I'll see it later after the match of 9Ps and BB.

I wouldn't call that throw. One mistake for each game really changes a lot for each games situation and there's the snowballing that do happens for the teams that are under farmed and does a comeback.
I agree the mistakes that some teams make while they're ahead are more punishing than before and that's why we see the early leads they've accumulated go down pretty fast in the mid to late game.
I've been always experiencing this in the pub rank games. And there have been times that we're all mega and did a come back and the same goes that we've destroyed everything and only the throne was left but then we still lost. Dota 2 is a tough game honestly, it's mentally draining and that's why even the pro teams, one mistake becomes a good comeback and a lead doesn't guarantee a win to them. It's going to be a mental break down usually if a team comes back just like what happened with the game of 9Pandas and Team Spirit.

Congratulations to those that have been part of this airdrop. I am always late as I am not optimistic anymore with these airdrops but it seems that there are still some exception with a few project. It's always like this that there's the hype and you get to be a part of it and then when the distribution is done, you only have to wait until the exchanges open the deposits for everyone to dump it. That's usually the cycle of it and you have to be quick on it as the markets are surely going to reflect down when they open the markets on it from exchanges.

9 hours from now, the games are all set and ready for the group stage. The teams are now completed by the other 4 that has got in through the decider matches. I thought 9Panda's aren't going to make it because they did a good job on the first day of the play in but then has been found to have a decider match against Virtus.Pro. This is sad to see that VP isn't as strong as their roster before but still able to get into this tournament that has a lot of prize pool to share to everybody.

I can't catch a single bet on this major so I will just leave it alone and only watch the games. This is pure lottery and a lot of trows happened from 20k networth advantage from teams like TSM , Secret and OG.

Despite ATF is really a good position 3, I agree to you that if he stays with Nigma, there should be an adjusted. And from being with OG before, he's a position 1 and that could be the adjustment. I am thinking that Nigma is more with the contract business now and not with the actual competition anymore. Kuroky needs to be just their manager or coach and let the younger ones play with their talents. ATF with the Quest is really a strong dark horse but then, it's all about business and contracts and probably ATF was minisculed by their offer and that's why ATF can't even proceed despite with a go signal from his Nigma management.

ATF is weighing his options and that is just the right thing to do. A few months before TI and a lot of teams can still get him if they wanted him to be in their team. The guy’s got pretty solid mechanics for a carry, though his aggressive play style suits him better in the offlane role, a role in which Nigma and Quest utilized him. He just needs a 4 position support that matches what he wants to do in the lane.
It's gonna be crucial for him if he wants to participate in the TI. I guess that he'll be playing with Nigma on the qualifiers but we all know that he's got a tiny chance to get on with them because of how Kuro and the team was performing, they're truly far from the meta right now.
But if another team is going to take him as a loan through the qualifiers up to the TI if ever lucky, I wonder what team is that. The one successful loan is Sumail. This is a good reason why I guess that kuro is going to push him to be taken as a loan while he's still in contract with them.

Old OG did this really well although they haven’t found much success after a few stints in a few majors.
Possible that he'll take them as a loan as well. It's because they've got no permanent teammates.
1486  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🕹️ Esports 🎮 Prediction & Discussion Thread on: July 17, 2023, 11:06:12 PM
If Nigma wants ATF they'd have to put him somewhere else, not pos 3. Mind Control is simply just not working on other roles, particularly on support roles given how tuned his gameplay is in the offlane. They can give Ammar pos 1, although I'm not sure if he's effective too on that role as he's been playing pos 3 for quite a while now, and his gameplay really suits the current meta for offlaners. They can put him in mid and try to do something in that position, although not sure if that's a setup that will work in the qualifiers.

Yes, I've got the same story as yours. I've been used to being mocked by those people that were ignorant in Bitcoin but I just endured it and showed them through results that it's a great thing, an asset and investment that they can truly rely on by being patient.
Those were my old and not-so-close friends but that's fine and I just kept quiet until a few years ago and the bull run came. They have seen the results but I'm not bragging it, they're just seeing that I was way too busy from doing my stuff and things until they've noticed everything that I was doing. I just told them that I've sold everything so that they won't bother me anymore. I know that sometimes it's nice to make them see you're winning but I have come to realized that it's best to just have a peace of mind and quiet place so that no people will bother you anymore and you can do and continue whatever stuff you have been doing.

Isn't there a way to check the MMR or the leaderboards?
There's no other way aside from the screenshot because the leaderboards only show the position.
Okay, thanks. I thought that there's a way that it can be checked since there's a way to check every current game even just for the images and real time trackers.

There are also rumors that 7.34patch will drop just before the TI regional qualifiers begin so whatever strategies teams had before this patch , it just become irrelevant.
It's not a rumor, it's a fact. The one who's assigned in doing these updates have officially posted it on his Facebook and Twitter account. I don't know with his other socials but if you know Wykrhm Reddy then you can check it. He's icefrog.

Now we are focused on the biggest prize award for a DOTA2 majors ever beginning on the 19th ending on the 30th.
Here are some news on the event for the teams:
https://afkgaming.com/dota2/news/black-announces-115k-mmr-and-stand-in-services-for-riyadh-masters-2023-qojqva-expresses-doubts
Btw, Riyadh Masters isn't a dota 2 major but it's still a tier 1 tournament because of how huge the prize that's awaiting for the teams that will be part of it. Isn't there a way to check the MMR or the leaderboards? But anyway, that's not a big deal though, most teams are craving for the prize and I doubt that someone won't be able to play but we'll know soon if there have been some visa issues for some players. Btw, what's a mercenary status?

That's a good transition for Gabbi, I think that this contract is just going to be for the qualification of the TI in the Western Europe. Gabbi being a pos 1 before and now transitioned into a pos 3. That's not an easy one but he surely have his practiced and play a lot of games in the pub as a pos 3. Looking at the teams participating this qualifier is like hard to think of. But the good thing is that there are two slots on this region.

Which is better to invest in copy trading or bot

And is there any other alternatives

I have 4k btc to invest
I'd be careful of not choosing any of them because these days, I choose not to be a day trader. But if you want to be one, you have to start just going with the spot market. And if you're looking for any alternatives, there's no need for you to think. By simply buying that $4k worth of BTC as your investment, you don't need to do that much as you only need to hold and do nothing with it. There's no any tricks or strategies aside from the term called, HODLING. I'm sure that you've heard of that somewhere and with that amount, you need to search for yourself first if you truly are prepared and ready to buy Bitcoin. Because if not, you may regret it eventually that you've bought when you're not prepared mentally and emotionally.
1491  Economy / Economics / Re: Agriculture can save your country from recession on: July 09, 2023, 11:08:06 PM
Having food security plays a big part for an economy of a country. If you're one of the biggest producers and farmers in your region, it's no doubt that you're one of the big contributors to your economy. But even not that as big as I am thinking, as long as you produce your own food, you're not just helping to keep up with the economy but also you're securing your food and lessening the problem that you have to deal with. At the same time, not just being secured in food but you also have to produce and sell it within your region and much better to export it in country's that has a lot of demand for crops, tomato and etc.

Like the known quote about money;

Quote
When money talks, everybody listens.

And with their stance before, that have changed them into a better person today because they see the opportunity is on it. Or, they're just playing fool and making everyone believe that they're against bitcoin so that there won't that be much demand and they can pick it while the prices aren't as high as possible.

Going to the point of government, most of them are actually neutral and whoever is at the top of these officials dealing and concerning topics about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. They're probably just weighing things around so that they won't compromise the bigger institutions favoring Bitcoin with their policies, so, they really are careful in balancing laws and reviewing the benefits of it upon adoption.

You're right with Beastcoast vs Shopify and with current map 3 drafting , I think Beastcoast will take this series as Shopify is already qualified for The International.
Beastcoast won against Shopify Rebellion. The map 3 of their match is one sided

I think Gaimin Gladiators will win this series with their experience and their odd seem quite favorable to bet on also. I saw it around 1.60 on a gambling website.
This is for tomorrow's match. Although Quest is an interesting and seem to be an easy going but strong team. GG is still different from them.

While as of typing this, Betboom and Azure Ray's first map is done and the first win goes to AR. Pure of BetBoom is disqualified for the entire run of this Bali major. Well, if AR will win the 2nd map or 3rd map if it goes there, this is their last run. A lot of things will be affected for the BetBoom team just because of his issue.

1494  Economy / Gambling / Re: Is it nomal for BLACKJACK.FUN to investigate for more than 6 months? on: July 06, 2023, 09:26:01 AM
That surely is a long time but take note of the word that's being said, "sometimes". And I think that happens for special occasions and accounts that need to be taken seriously with their investigation department. But telling such, is just like giving you ample time to wait so that you won't expect that it should be as soon as possible. They can also solve it the quickest that they can and if you think that it has taken a long time for this investigation with your account, you can have a follow up and ask them on what's the progress and in which part of the process with your case is. It's not gonna hurt them to give you an update unless they'd say the same thing to be patient.
1495  Economy / Economics / Re: Bad impact when You carry out Online or Offline Loans on an ongoing basis on: July 04, 2023, 10:35:42 PM
In the end, debt addiction will here to stay if you allow it to yourself. Even if we say our current culture has encouraged us to take loans, but we know in everything we always have to make choices. And if your choice is to continue taking loans, then expect that you will continue paying its consequences.
Yeah, we are still the ones to decide and control ourselves if we're going to take loans. Even if the government pushing people to take loans, that's a trap and you know it for yourself and just don't take it when you don't need it. And even if you need it but you know that you're not able and there's the consequence that you may experience later on, just choose what's ease for you.

However, there are always methods or course of action to get rid of loans. By simply managing your expenses and avoid luxuries that are unnecessary in your life, then you can start saving for yourself so you can minimize from taking loans.
Live frugally. This is going to help you out with what you just need in your day to day living, I agree that living luxury will push you to your limits because you're living to impress others and that's the second thing to avoid, don't try to impress other people and don't get their approval with things that you're doing in life. If you're living simply then that's the best way to live out without waiting for others to tell if you're doing it right or wrong if you're seeing it very well effective and you're not having any troubles living it.

I don't know the background of the owners of stake but if there's only thing that I know about them is that they've built its reputation over time and it's also they are serious with this business. They've taken on board Drake as their brand ambassador and paid him a lot of money.
So, I think that with that action and a combination of many users that will agree that they're trusting them, if going with the roots and whether it tallies or not. They've made their brand known and popular not just here in the forum but also in sporting events that they've been supporting athletes and those sports in itself.

I was surprised to see ESPN reporting that Draymond Green signed a 4 year 100 million dollar deal to stay with the Warriors. I can’t imagine that he’ll still be starting for them in four years given his drop off over the last two seasons but I guess he’s earned that money for helping them get the rings they have. Next year with CP3 will be interesting.
I thought that he'll be choosing to get away from the team to explore further. But this is a good decision from him getting that $100M for a 4-year deal to make the current roster intact together with a new addition of CP3.

Reports says Gabe Vincent joining the Lakers,

Quote
Free agent guard Gabe Vincent is expected to join the Los Angeles Lakers on a three-year, $33 million deal, per The Athletic’s Shams Charania.

https://www.nba.com/news/gabe-vincent-2023-free-agency

So this is a great news for the Lakers and Lebron as he will have a good wingman and a 3 point shooter. Plus Gabe has one of the best seasons so far last year with the Heat.

But as the same time, they let go of Dennis as he moves to Toronto. Because Fred VanVleet signing a three-year, $130 million max contract with the Houston Rockets.
This truly is a good news for the Lakers. While Dennis Schroder is out and will be going to the Raptors, Hachimura got a decent contract with the Lakers while adding Vincent to their roster. Well, this is what we're liking with the Lakers now. A lot of support is there and this is a balance lineup that they probably want.

I voted for sportsbetting and it's the most popular in the poll.  Cool

Sports betting is easier than others because it's entertaining and fun to watch, if you can derive pleasure from something and you are able to also make money out of it, then nothing can beat this.
Not just entertaining as it is but if you're truly a fan of that sport you're betting, it's easy to figure out what are the teams that you should bet if there are odds out already.

Stake.com, no doubt, is 100 percent the best gambling site. Casino or Sports.
This varies from the bias that we've got but can't argue that it's one of the most popular.
1499  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: [Poll] Which of these Categories of Bitcoiners are Most Bullish? on: June 27, 2023, 06:14:24 PM
Anyone will have an answer base on what they think and feel about which is more bullish. But this is a topic that really has nothing to do with someone's holding or belief in the market. Miners will always be there because it is profitable, the bitcoin core devs of course are also bullish too and want to see bitcoin to succeed more. Whilst for the noobs, count me in there as it could be someone who's just in the market and buys bitcoin and holds it for the long term. As for these institutions, they're known that they're here to make money and that's why no matter what the market situation is, they'll find ways to capitalize the situation and make money from it. You see what they're doing right now, they're all hungry to take advantage of the situation and no one wants to get left behind.
1500  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why People Still Gamble? on: June 26, 2023, 11:48:11 PM
We're living on this world and its era where nobody gives an F to nobody. That's why people do gamble no matter what situation he's in, a gambler will be one. There is a bad result on this one that whether we're a gambler, we'd still remain a gambler and if we've got nothing to gamble anymore, that's where crimes will enter. It's sad that people resort with that option because they've been addicted and that's the reason who's engaged in gambling to protect yourself by having your self control and also by providing yourself. If you can't gamble with any of your money then at least also please don't gamble with others money.
I believe that the issue with addiction is that,  it works inline with our instinct and base on individual frame of mind,  gambling should indeed be done with your own money and also with an amount one can afford to part away with,  this is because,  sometime the outcome of gambling may not be favorable and at that one need to have that self control and limits so that you ain't losing more than you can afford.

So if a gambler already has this frame of mind,  it then means that the next thing is to cave out the amount that will be in proportion to what you intend to spend on a bet, 
That's one thing, if there's already that thought built on our minds, we don't care who's gonna care to us but one important matter is we're gambling no matter what.

also avoid borrowing to bet and crime should be avoided.
This is a terrible thing when a gambler does this so that he/she can gamble. Let's take the reality that many does this and many of those didn't result well. They think that they can win somebody's money and will just have to casually return it and take the profit out of it and boom, they're out of the debt that they've taken and easily got money from gambling. Nope, that's not the easiest solution and many have been f'ed up with it.
