1661  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Naoya Inoue vs Paul Butler - Undisputed Bantamweight Bout - December 13 on: October 21, 2022, 01:46:12 PM
Though it needed for him to complete the chase and hold all the belts from his current division, which is no longer far to happen,
after this fight against Butler, there's nothing more for him.
I'm not anymore thinking of this fight because I know that Inoue will just dominate Butler here.
Not the fight that we wanted to see, but here it is, Inoue's path in becoming an undisputed champion is gonna be easy,  no disrespect to Butler but that's how I see it and probably most of us.

Deciding to move up will also increase his potential benefits. What more if he will beat the champ and collect more belts
under his name.

More money to come for him as mega fights will be created if he will challenge the champions.

After witnessing plenty of games on the 2nd day of the season, tomorrow we will be limited with 2 games only.

Bucks vs 76ers -4
Clippers vs Lakers +5.5


I feel betting on the favorites would give me a win, so I'm leaning with the 76ers to bounce back from their previous game's loss and the Clippers to gave the Lakers their 2 losses in a row.

I like the Clippers -5.5 but not the 76ers -4 because Bucks is a decent team, if 76ers will win here, I think it will be a close game so there's a good chance that the Bucks will be able to cover the spread. I know they came from a lose against the Celtics, but that doesn't mean they'll win at home. Anyway, good luck to you bro.

I actually took the Bucks money line here at +145.  Think giannis fights for mvp again this year and honestly think they make it back to the Finals.  Should be a good game either way.

The late game with the Lakers is rough.  Giving the Clippers 5.5 points on theor opening night.  Lebron and AD gonna bring something special think I gotta ride the Lakers getting points here.

Enjoy the games and good luck people

Great prediction, you both won your bet because Bucks won and Lakers cover the handicap. Can't trust the Lakers really but they are good because they covered the point spread. Two consecutive losses already, I think I'll be backing them next game.

One thing newbies should know is that nothing good comes easy. And if the purpose of joining is not because they want to make money, but for the knowledge of Bitcoin, then I see no reason why there'd be reason to leave. Getting to be recognized in the forum takes consistency, patience and dedication.
 
 Because if we should relate this forum to life endeavor, you don't just give up easily because no one appreciates you, you can still move on because you have a reason for entering it. When life throws you lemons, you make lemonade with it.
We'd see people have a successful life in crypto and even outside crypto it is because they use to keep patient and hard working. It is a gradual event, no instant way to reach high but have to start at the bottom and little by little it goes high. It is very common that newbies are coming here for money and I have to admit that but I'd never put it on my mind first, instead, I prioritize learning because this is the helping tool for us to grow and enhance our level of understanding. The more we think about money, the more we become distracted and can't focus on learning anymore.
1664  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Leaving your coins on exchanges on: October 20, 2022, 10:10:16 PM
But do big and well-known exchanges provide insurance to users if their exchange gets hacked? We will still get the whole asset right?
I'm not sure about that, even if Binance did in the past. You can't completely rely on the reputation of the big exchanges because in fact you will be disappointed in the end if at any time they can't guarantee your funds back after a hack.

Save your assets in a personal wallet instead of an exchange, it is the best option adopted by bitcoin users. Entrusting your assets to the exchange is limited to trading, it's good to avoid transaction fees. But it all depends on you, if you trust all your assets on the exchange then you should probably know what the risks are.
Perhaps, there is no assurance that the exchange will give you back 100% if there is anything that happens to them like hacking. If we store our funds in there like in Binance we adhere to the consequences and are aware of the risk that will happen, and we agree to it before depositing makes us no complaints why not get the total amount we put there? In order to avoid this, mentioning of having use of our personal wallet instead of an exchange is more advisable and actually the right thing to do.

First half run by the Mavs almost perfectly being executed, but the 2nd half rally of Phoenix snatches the win.

They gave up their big lead, that's why they'll never be a championship team. Mavs are still relying so much on Luka, this team is fun to watch but this season I think will still be dominated by the Warriors. Nice pick up on Damian Lee, he was huge in that game, that unbelievable winning shot was pretty impressive, I bet he cannot do it again.

Aside from what Cantsay mentioned,  keyloggers would be one of the things that could have caused that. Did that guy have his PC remotely controlled by someone? It is possible that a third party planted a remote keylogger to that guy's PC.

Never let a random technician just get remote access to your PC. They usually use software like Anydesk.
If someone asks for your Anydesk access, that was too easy for them to hack your computer but not sure if this still works if you turn off your computer as it changes everything when you open it. I'm also worried about this because I often use this application (and many people do this remote access).
Well, whatever it is hackers have their ways on how to hack our PC without noticing it, they are smart and smarter than normal PC users. We are too unlucky if we become their target.

The game between Meralco and Phoenix, it was Phoenix who are controlling the game so far.

1st half is over, let's see if Meralco will have a big run to make it a close game.
Prior to this game, Meralco are -4.5 favorite, so hopefully bookies are correct on making this team the favorite.

remember that Phoenix came from the last 2 big wins.
1669  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: October 19, 2022, 07:27:00 AM
As usual, it's still Curry who leads the team, tonight he made 33 points, and it looks effortless on his part.

The ball movement of the Warriors is very much remarkable, it's the same Warriors that are good at dominating their opponent, and even if Lebron is their opponent, it doesn't matter, they are always there to dominate whoever they are playing with. Wiseman already played, that would give them better defense as this guy can make defense and can also produce offense, so this season, expect a more improve Warriors team.
1670  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Crawford vs Spence on: October 19, 2022, 06:49:42 AM
But Crawford can also move up to 154 and hunt for his 4th division title but he seriously needs a promoter to depend on.   

And of course he can find a promoter if he wants to, the job of the promoter is to sell the fight, and since Crawford is already popular and a champion, every promoter will sure be willing to invest on him.

That's right and this kind of job is easy and I'm sure there are already lots of candidates who wanted to have him. If he cannot find a good opponent in their current weight division, he better not waste his time and continue in his journey to be one of the great fighters and try to add some championship belts in his name. It would be completely different opponents up there but with his skills and experience, he will easily become a champion and might even have to go for a unification bout when he is comfortable up there.
In his current status, it's not hard for any promoters to sell him to a title fight. He already established his name from his current division.

If he decided to move up, his handlers will look and negotiate with any title holder from his chosen
division, we all know that not just the title but more on the money that includes to every fight that
being deal with. The amount of potential profits is far more important for everyone..

It's still about the money, boxers would love to fight in a championship fight to gain more money as championship fights are much watched compared to a regular fight. As for Crawford, he already had popularity, still in his prime, so it's important that he will choose a good opponent in case he will move up in weight.  So this is it? Is this fight not gonna happen?
1671  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What you need to know to avoid possible scam on: October 18, 2022, 10:36:05 PM
Scammers are not supposed to be very successful if not for the ignorant newbies. Scammers has similar methods and approach and we have known them all. Whenever they device a new method, it will also not be difficult to understand. Someone who is trying to scam you is seriously in the jot seat and should be the one to fave pressure. You can only and easily fall prey if you are a newbie and also if you are greedy.
Nobody is willing to help anybody make money, they are all scammers. The earlier we understand this, the better for all of us.
Not only they are innocent and not only for newbies but this is also possible for greedy people who just always thinking about increasing their money fast. In fact, the Ponzi scheme is not new in the market but guess what, there are still a lot of people who become a victim of this belief in something unrealistic promises. Because if you are really in your mind and not greedy, you will certainly not fall into that known scam trick.
I'd say, it is our own decision, we can't influence others as most of the time it will just be twisted.
1672  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Crypto agents on the increase on: October 18, 2022, 09:58:29 PM
Obviously scamming grew bigger because everything became a bit more online and technological. Doesn't mean that there weren't any scammers before online payment world got big, but it wasn't as easy as it was today, on the other hand with crypto it became even wider and that’s the trouble we are going to be in if we do not careful, and scammers will take full advantage of the situation.
Technologies have been growing and developing fast but along with that side, scams and any form of fraud, and illegal activities are also increasing.
It is quite disturbing and the government looks at crypto as a huge contributor to such events, and a reason why some countries wanted this to stop and even ban it.
Quote
If it is easier for scammers to take advantage of us, then it is up to us to be even more careful and if we are not then we are going to be in full on trouble. This is of course not something you can do in a single day, you need to learn how to not get scammed as well as scammers learn how they can scam you.
This is one of the disadvantages but we don't let these scammers win over, and that is why we have to be more vigilant and never make a decision without doing research.
1673  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: October 18, 2022, 07:11:49 AM
I don't know if Green and Klay's contract will be extended, and it must've been hard for GM Bob Myers to make a decision knowing that both of them are a huge part of the past dynasty that gave them 3 titles. Let's just hope that they will be given at least 1–2-year contract maybe.

These two are the star players of the team, there's no way they won't be extended, probably they'll not get a max salary but the management will surely consider them still playing with the team. Actually, it's not only about the talent, it's about the chemistry of the team and it has been Klay, Curry, and Draymond Green who made this team a championship team.

Most probably the guest team will not win the championship.The own ground team made a dominating playing against the guest team.If this happened so,it will be the history making match.I had huge eager to see that match for sure.SMB loss with the Dragons was unexpected one from the SMB team.So now all the team will focus on the Dragons.They will try to eliminate the dragons in all the qualifiers stage.Hope it will not affect the game of Dragons.
Every team wants to win, they'll not only play to defeat the Dragons, but they also have only a main mission which is to win the championship. Dragons are just a good team, but so far not the best team based on what I've witnessed so far. I like to believe that if JMF was there, SMB surely have a decent chance of winning.
1675  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Survey] Do you still play or stop the game? on: October 15, 2022, 02:21:57 PM
If you are playing gambling for example slots and you double money with just a couple of bets on very early part of your game. Will you stop already or continue playing to earn more?

More often, I keep playing looking for another big win, another luck. Because what is in my mind is that what if I was too lucky today and I can recover all my losses? Sometimes I was right but most of the time I lose all my winning for that assumption and got empty my wallet.

I'd see this very common to most gamblers. We know is a pure luck base game and we know not all the time we got lucky. But when we win, it changes our mindset, and can't even remember those things as we even urge to gamble more and lose more instead of winning. Well, this is the fact but it was my pleasure to do this at least I was not totally addicted to gambling.
1676  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: October 15, 2022, 01:50:01 PM
if only the coaching staff will give him enough playing time, he can give more help the team to win.

It won't happen. Instead of giving him enough playing time, why not give that playing time instead to a caliber player?

He's fit in the supporting role, not as a part of the main cast. He can be a valuable backup.

Anothe reason why he is given limited playing time is, it was the health recommendation after being in a major injury.

I agree with you, otherwise, cousins would not be having a hard time getting signed into a team. The fact that he only gets a short-term contract, that only means that the team sees the risk that he could be injured anytime and he will be a liability again to the team. Being in the 2nd unit is more effective for him, and getting limited minutes would help him minimize the risk of getting injured.

Meanwhile, we have ROS vs TNT, looks like we now see a sure winner as TNT is already ahead by 18 points.

TNT would win this game, another blowout win by TNT, thus far, TNT is the most consistent team now, waiting for the time to see them playing either SMB or Ginebra to see if they really are that strong. Oftana is such a huge steal by the TNT, this team is now becoming more dangerous specially outside.
1678  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trade with a business mindset on: October 15, 2022, 10:48:56 AM

How long would a trader rely on and continue copy trading after paying huge monthly fee? if they suddenly stop sending signals that mean such a trader will stop trading because of lack of trading skills, why not devote a lot of time on personal learning process of trading, afterall the internet is there with every information that can be harnessed and use to build a personal trading strategy, losses is inevitable in trading however, the ability to manage trades even with a few wins and turn it profitable is another skill in money management above bear in mind that avoiding greediness in trading is the key to becoming a successful trader.
That is a big [problem relying on others as for sure they will never stay at your back all the time. A reason why we should have to push ourselves to learn standing our own feet and enhance our knowledge in trading while there is someone beside us. We have to take that moment as we never know what might happen in the coming days but literally, I foresee good results when having our own decisions as we can do whatever we wanted, though it was risky and full of trial and error. But yeah, this way to success.
1679  Economy / Speculation / Re: Every signal is a speculation on: October 15, 2022, 08:44:57 AM
The trader certainly knows that all signals that occur in the market can be used as speculation, when in an hour there is an increase of more than 5% then we will think that the opportunity for rising is very large, but if in an hour the price of drops 5% then we will think that market opportunities will be red again.
Everything around in crypto when it talks about prices for the incoming are speculations, that was the reality. However, people are having fun with it and aside from that, this is a way also to make them more particular about the trend and this helps them understand the behavior of the market. There is nothing we can do in a volatile market like this but just draw conclusions based on the market movement. That is why TA and FA are very important when investing for this will guide us in choosing the best project to invest, not like a guessing situation.
1680  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Next meme coin to buy in 2022 on: October 15, 2022, 08:28:30 AM
Sorry, I think the trend of meme coins is over already. There is no chance for meme coins to be like Doge or SHIB in the past. I already stopped buying any meme coins since the bearish season started, I only focus on buying top coins. Even if you have a big reason for the potential meme coins to buy, I am not interested because I know I huge risk of meme coin investments.


such purchases in 99% of cases will only incur losses.I agree with you the time of memes has passed.In such a market, you need to populate a portfolio with good assets and not buy something that is already useless.
Besides, only Shiba Inu and Dogecoin are making their way to survive while the majority turn to scams and are gone forever. Investing in this kind of is somewhat suicide, I guess nobody would like to take this option knowing that we only just lose after. Perhaps, there are a lot of valuable coins which is very ideal for either long-term or short-term investment, not just those coins that it pumps due to social media manipulation and hype that will never stay long like these meme coins.
