Please help me check the bookies from time to time and share when the odds are out.

Sure, I will bet on this game too because I'm excited about it. I hope the report isn't false because we don't want to anticipate an event that won't happen. The Philippines versus the host country; this is going to be a great game for sure. With Brownlee leading the team, I'm confident that they will handle the host country's team.

I did some quick research, and this is what I found: https://stake.com/sports/basketball/international/sea-games/43570437-philippines-cambodia

The Philippines are favored by 18.5 points. It's not fun since we already know which team will win.
1042  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New trend PEPE ? Seems many projects Launching with PEPE Names. on: May 10, 2023, 09:25:08 PM
Have you observed the significant number of project launches featuring the name "PEPE"? If you check the recently added list on CoinMarketCap, you'll notice that approximately 90% of the project names include "pepe." Lately, meme coins have been experiencing a remarkable surge in market capitalization. What are your thoughts on meme coins and the prevailing trend of pepe-related projects? Personally, I wasn't initially a fan of meme coins, but it appears that they have gained considerable hype. I'm curious to know your opinion on meme coins as well. Have you invested in any of them?
I was trying to understand this situation and all I got is DOUBTs. A project that was created for Hyped is impossible to stay long in the market because, after that, it drops drastically without a chance of coming back or recovery, they'll turn shitcoins already. Dogecoins and Shiba Inu are known among meme coins that are considered a little bit reliable, not I say they are worth investing but as we can see these coins competitive among others and still gain popularity in the crypto market. But about Pepe, I'd better not try...let us see what will happen after the hype

There are options when trading can bring profit quickly. But the question is different - can such a result be further. I don't think it's very likely at all.
Perhaps, it was just an assumption because no way we can earn quick profit from trading, maybe you are talking about losing quickly? In fact, experts can never say anything. Well, they might be in a situation they would earn easily because of their experience and market knowledge but for newbies, I'm really sure that it never exist. Maybe if we talk about a simplified way in order to improve our chances to earn more, that was possible.
That is why we never see new traders become rich instantly but honestly, they are in the struggle with how to adjust themselves to the changing behavior of the market and place good trades.
1044  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: May 10, 2023, 01:56:49 PM
Tomorrow, both road teams (LA Lakers and Miami Heat) could end their respective series. We don't know what will happen, as even the heavy underdog team can win, just like what happened with the 76ers vs Boston game where the 76ers were the heavy underdog and dominated the home team.

Embiid played like an MVP during that game, so it could happen with the LA Lakers with LeBron and AD, or with Butler of the Heat, who believes he is the best player in the NBA now.

Knicks fan here.  It's not looking good.  I would say golden state has a better chance to extend the series they are a much better home team then road team.  The knicks..they haven't been able to shoot consistently all series.  They get outrebounded and are losing every 50/50 ball.  They need a drastic change in pace if they expect to extend the series.  Just hoping for one win here and then whatever happens in game 6 in Miami happens.  Happy with theor season they were only expected to win sub 30 games this year.

To be honest, the Knicks are in a bad position now. In the first and second games, they haven't shown dominance at home, so I think it will be a 50/50 ball game in game 5. A win at home for the Knicks would be better, as it would be very embarrassing to lose in a 4-1 series against the underdog, and they might feel the same way the Bucks did.

Butler and the Heat are underrated. We've seen how good they are in the playoffs, and Kevin Love was a huge factor. However, if we look at the betting odds, the Heat are not even made heavy favorites to win.

I will not be surprise TBH if he will be the one that will be traded if the Warriors will lose to the Lakers. I mean Poole is a big factor last season when they won the title, but he isn't the same for this season, and he's more of a liability when he's in the court. Like what @danherbias07 said, DiVincenzo and Moody are more productive than him, so I'd rather see both of them be given more minutes. I also hope that Looney will be better in the next game because he's been playing limited minutes because of the illness.
Jordan Poole's strength was his offense, but since he's not producing this series, there may be no need to keep him. DiVincenzo is a good example of a player who wants to win. He's good defensively and can also grab offensive rebounds. As we saw in game 4, the coaching staff seems to have lost faith in Poole, which is why he was only given very limited minutes.

In game 4, he only had 10:24 minutes and was scoreless.

Very bad stats with 0-4 shooting.
1047  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: May 09, 2023, 08:10:45 AM

Miami Heat on the other hand dominated the painted area, I think their max was 5 offensive rebounds in one possession. Something is wrong with the Knicks if that happens. No box out probably, or they are just not hustling at getting the ball because I doubt that was mere luck for the Heat.



The Heat had success in the 4th quarter, and it was actually a good win for them. They now lead 3-1 in the series, but they still aren't considered a team that could win a championship. Looking at the NBA Futures betting odds, it seems like they are underestimated. If they advance, they might face Boston, but I think the 76ers could upset the Celtics.

No blowouts today, it was an entertaining day.
True, hopefully we'll see more of that in the coming games.
1048  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you stay updated on: May 06, 2023, 02:44:31 PM
I'm definitely not a pro by any means and I'm sure my answer will reflect that...  I don't rely on singular news sources for really anything these days.  I've found that Twitter gives you plenty of news articles from a variety of sources posted by the individuals in the know who can make good recommendations.  So for me, Twitter is my go to for information and from there I am usually pointed into the right direction of where I need to go to find what I'm looking for.  I think that's better than using a singular source as news outlets can occasionally be biased. 
I agree by not using only a single news source because it will only refer to one conclusion and prediction, Twitter as a search for information about finding data on boxers is indeed quite good as a means of information such as articles or journals have been made by others, But if for people who do not like to read I think why not use YouTube or vidio information platform, such as podcasts or others who discuss boxing, where we will see them discussing what they know more we can understand, or better we use Both as a means of information and matching data that we receive, to add our references to make boxing betting.
Don't forget that Twitter has a comment section. We can read that and see the opinion of the public if they agree on what the author is saying. If not then it must be a biased analysis. If we are eager to win, we will do anything. We will not be lazy to read. You mention Youtube there but don't forget that Twitter also allows video posts.

When it comes to Podcast, the first thing that comes to our mind is Spotify but lately, Twitter also introduced a new feature called Spaces which I think works pretty much the same as Podcast. I'm not trying to be biased here nor shill Twitter but if we want to save time and effort, why will we look for other place, right?
Being a user myself, I can attest to what you've said, Twitter is indeed a major hub for information on majorly anything going on around the world today, Facebook used to be it, but for some reasons, I think Facebook lost their charm on the people already, YouTube is also a good place, but not very many people find YouTube as the best and most convenient place, since you will have to spend 10 to 30 minutes and data watching a video of something you could have read under a minute or two with less data, the only time I used YouTube is when I need to see a practical example of how to do something, aside this, Twitter is always the most convenient way of staying updated on anything happening around the sports, sports, gambling, politics, entertainment, just about anything..
Our life today become easier because of the internet where almost everything that we wanted to know is already there.
We have these social media platforms known for their fast information spread, we have YouTube for tutorial videos and gambling sites for us to keep updated. It is all just a matter of minutes and it is all done but if we are really lazy to do it, even if it was available already, you will still find it hard.
I can really spend 1 hour searching if it was very necessary, not unless if I don't care about my future.
1049  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What does it take to become a Bitcoin investor on: May 06, 2023, 02:09:33 PM
To become a successful investor in the crypto world, especially investing in Bitcoin, we must first learn the basics that we must understand about Bitcoin because the risk of every investor must exist because when we invest, of course, the capital we have to spend so we must be careful not to experience large losses and we will feel pressured if we never get a profit, So first understand how the chart moves and how to buy Bitcoin on certain exchanges because not all exchanges are safe for us to use.
Perhaps, it was a vital thing need to become a Bitcoin investor. Because no way we can call ourselves an investor, or successful investor even though we buy 1BTC or 10BTC when we never know how it works. Because investing is not just all about money and capital but also knowledge. And no way we succeed if don't have those things as it was connected to each other. The more we understand the system, the more encourage ourselves to invest more and earn more. That is why investing doesn't give us profit instantly as it happens when we know how to grow it, just like running a business.
1050  Economy / Gambling / Re: Can we trust 3rd party Slot providers? on: May 06, 2023, 12:06:54 PM


Other neglect to check the third party providers reputation since they are confident that such crazy things will not happen since they are playing on a reputable casino. Although this is valid thoughts but still we need to consider the third party provider reputation so that we can rely on that we are in better platform and they will not scam us if we decide to try out their games offered to us.



     -  Speaking of Reputation, how do we know mate if a 3rd party provider has a good reputation? This is for the information of other gamblers who play immediately on a casino platform here in crypto.

Because even I don't know how to find out, because all I know is the casino itself that includes the 3rd party provider. Because the gambler will not think about whether the game they choose is 3rd party or not in a casino.


You are actually having some point there because it was seldom for someone who would the casino if they are using 3rd party slots provider, not in the case that they will bother doing it especially, if they don't see any major irregularities in the casino. Whether they are using it or not, it won't change the sentiment and our chances of winnings. But of course, it was also our right to know but I would say that it doesn't matter as long as we are using reputable sites for we are trusting them.

Generally, it is all about giving good services to the customers. Because the moment that they feel happy and convenient in one place, they will turn back again and possibly bring more as they talk about their good experience.
Where discounts and incentives for loyal customers is also a great idea, and these people will appriciate it much. It is very important to hear feedbacks from our clients/customers whether it was bad or good because in this way, we know what is the thing we need to correct and a need to improve.

If slots games is all you are good at, are you really good at it or you are just lucky? Can you use the word 'good at it' with slots game?
...
You're not really good at nor someone can do that, it is just about luck and so you win the games.
if people say that there is a strategy to win here in slot games, that person is lying because absolutely impossible in pure-luck base games.

At some point, some gamblers are really wrong about gambling thinking that this will give them money and would able to beat the house. Because no way we can increase our chances in slot games which is why I've preferred to gamble in sports betting rather than this.
1053  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Staking really great way in crypto wealth on: May 05, 2023, 09:42:28 PM
It true that there are some exchanger gave these kinds of facilities but it should always be noted that one should not fall into the clutches of scammers hoping to get extra interest. Moreover, first check whether the platform on which you are going to stake is actually authentic and stay updated about the news about the platform. Don't be lured by high interest. Scammers often lure investors with high interest.
Well, I was expecting that thing to happen especially, if they don't take extra precautions. Many cases happen already that after staking, the site got collapsed and take their money. It is something they need to consider that they are using reputable exchanges otherwise, they are taking huge risks. But have to say that real investors don't look at such promotions ( staking for additional income) as they are into looking at the security of their fund. In fact, if just hold our coins and sell them during the bull season, we still make a profit from it and less risks.
1054  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Seeking help with PEPE on coinbase wallet on: May 05, 2023, 01:46:29 PM
Thanks for all the engagement everyone! After seeing it go up again, my original investment of $20 was $263 this morning. Using the uniswap interface, they had me purchase $90 worth of ETH to pay for the transaction. I ended up converting the pepe to eth and now have about $260 of eth as a final result. It still ended up being a profitable trade for me and I learned how those transactions take place. Next time, I think I'll just get pancakeswap if I want to take a position on high risk assets like memecoins
Well, pancakeswap gives the easiest way of converting tokens. But what happened to you will serve as a lesson for you then and have it realized that it was important to get familiar with how the exchanges work and it also needs wide market understanding. But good thing you still manage to do it and the result is great. And talking about meme coins, you don't need to keep them long in your wallet, they easily get hyped and must not miss it to sell, or else, you'll be surprised that your $100 become $10.
1055  Economy / Speculation / Re: Halving effects, how long they will last? on: May 05, 2023, 01:09:33 PM
If the previous halving succeeded in making the price rise then I have no doubt that the halving that will occur in a year will also make the price explode, especially if this year can be closed with a price of at least $ 60k then when the price halving will be easy to reach $ 100k, the mining process increasingly difficult to make the price will continue to increase because the stock is very limited.
We're sure about it but wait, we should also not be confident enough that everything will rise, not these shitcoins.
We are expecting that it will bring the market to another level of hype again and assume that Bitcoin will able to reach another price record in crypto history. In fact, people are waiting for the halving because they believe that this is their chance to make a huge profit and be rewarded for their long time waiting. And this can be possible if the majority are able to hold their coins, instead of dumping them upon seeing short pumps.

Absolutely, it will make him a popular fighter, and big fights will come to him. It's safe to say that Inoue is already a superstar in boxing. If we talk about pound-for-pound rankings based on the article below dated April 25, 2023, Inoue is currently sitting at the number 3 spot.

What a turn around for both the Lakers and GSW in game 2. The Warriors just completely destroyed Lakers' defense. What's even interesting is that it does not involved Kevon Looney that much, GSW played small ball, quick plays, and very efficient in the 3rd.
AD also had a huge turnaround from game 1 with his poor performance today.
Overall poor performance for the Lakers in game 2, despite of the hot start from LeBron and Hachimura.
Let's see if they can bounce back from this blowout in their 2 game home stand.
I think the whole world knew that Anthony Davis could not play 2 games in a row and have the same result. He was insignificant in the game tonight. The warriors also changed the narrative from game 1 concerning free throws. Lakers only shot 17 free throws this time vs 29 in game 1.

The Lakers can’t beat the Warriors unless Anthony Davis is the most dominant player in the game. Nothing displayed this better than the first two games of the series. I’m not sure what exactly went wrong for AD tonight, but the Lakers had better make some adjustments and figure out how to get him going before it’s too late.

Definitely, because just like in the first round series, when AD is struggling, the whole team is affected negatively. The Warriors made the right adjustment, and I think they deserved the win. I believe the Lakers will also make an adjustment in game 3. This is a very interesting series, and both teams have shown that they can win. Regardless of how dominant the win is, the most important thing is that the series is tied.

There are a lot of business opportunities especially if you have a lot of money but running a business that you don't have knowledge about it is likely to have an ending story. If I were you, I do focus on a single business line and grow it because it was not necessary to have multiple if it was impossible to manage them. Otherwise, have someone to manage it while you are focusing on the other because if you are not good at this business then hire someone that is capable of it. And this system has been used by many businessmen but much better if you also have some knowledge about it at least.
1059  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: May 04, 2023, 01:06:15 PM

Also the 3rd quarter surge of the Celtics made consecutive three point shots is the reason why the lead ballooned coming into the 4th quarter, and from that they didn't look back. I guess there's nothing wrong with Harden on this one, but it's the adjustment of the Celtics' defense against him that causes him to have this poor performance, and so is Embiid.

They focused on demolishing Harden as he was the reason for the game 1 upset against the home team. In game 2, they made sure that Harden would be cold so he would not have the confidence to continue shooting the ball. His performance was very poor, but that will change in game 3.

In game 3, the 76ers will be back on their home court, and the best way to impress the fans is to win the first game. So, I'll probably still ride with the 76ers in game 3, and I like that they remain the underdog.

In game 3, the 76ers are only +1.5, which is nice.

Not really, but we can't avoid bringing up Manny Pacquiao's name here as he has been the best example of a successful boxer in the Philippines. Of course, we also want Donaire to be successful in boxing.


In any case, there are still no updates on this fight, the governing body has approved this fight in February if I'm not mistaken. And we don't know what's really holding up, who's side is stalling the fight or if there is an actual negotiations from behind.

Some boxing forums that I visited also was waiting for this fight to happen, but so far no words.

Yes, there's no update yet as to when this fight will happen. But since it's already approved, I think the promoters are just trying to find the best timing so they can generate enough profit from this specific fight. Just be patient and optimistic that it will happen this year.
