the stake is doing a lot for cryptocurrencies, but talking about the sponsorship of everton I would say that it could be another team that in the next season may be relegated, in my opinion the stake if it had managed to sponsor a team like aston villa would have made the best choice , because at least they would be guaranteed that they would not be at risk of sponsoring a team that would be at risk of being relegated. But going back to everton I hope that lampard manages to at least get everton not relegated, I doubt that everton will be able to occupy any prominent place in the next season. I say this because the newcastle, aston villa, tottenham, arsenal, manchester united, liverpool, city, chelsea west ham will take all the prominent places

'The Stake'? Wink

I know Everton were fighting relegation this season, but they were too good to drop, they had a few truly bad games but they made it out and I honestly cannot see them moving back into bottom three fight this season,,, seriously. Every team has a bad patch but it would be highly unlikely that the team fighting for top 4 two seasons ago has another run of bad luck.

Villa and Everton are equally not at risk, so not sure why you say it like this. You realize Everton only relegated TWO times in their history and the last time was 1950?

Villa relegated in 1987, and then in 2016 and stayed there until 2018. How long you watching EPL?

Max failed to finish 2 races this year, and he still has 34 points lead. He had only one race in monaco where he didn't finish first, in which he was third, and aside from that he always finished first on all races he saw the flag.

I am guessing that Ferrari should reconsider their strategy, not that they have zero chance to win it this year, but they definitely do not look that great anymore neither. Even with a better car, which it was for a while, they still failed to win, and that shows so much for them. Hell RBR even had a terrible pitstop to give them a chance, and yet they still failed. I am sorry but if you can't win in these circumstances, then maybe it is not meant to be.

It's cos Leclerc hasn't finished a couple of races himself.  One in Spain and the other just happened at Azerbaijan...

And it looks like Leclerc might really have a power unit change and he could get at least a 10 grid penalty.  The books have gotten a lot sharper.  Leclerc to get pole at quali is at 1.65 and Verstappen to win the race is at 1.75.

No value in this market imho.  Will the winning margin be more than 10 seconds?  That one is at 2.35.

I think a lot of people got fooled by Ferrari, and if I am not mistaken, last year also there was a lot of nostalgic sentimental news about Schumacher and then yeah, the promises, the talents, everything was supposed to combine well.

But the team/engineers just really let LeClerc down.

Not falling for winning margin +10 seconds. This is not Baku Wink

It depends on what you mean by 'responsible'. The man was fully responsible for his actions,,, unless a medical doctor diagnoses him as unable to make his own decisions, maybe a severe gambling addiction plus mental incapacity or something.

But the state also is responsible for negligence.

I remember at a casino I used to promote (I still play daily) withdrawals would take a long time, and you could play with the balance that was not yet withdrawed. People complained,,, they said the casino purposely left the balance there so the users could gamble it away.

I always felt both sides share responsibility. Casino for taking advantage of gambler bad habits and players for having bad discipline.
264  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sportsbet.io UEFA Nations League Prediction Pool Discussion Thread on: June 15, 2022, 04:47:44 AM
England do not deserve their reputation. Italy do not deserve either.
Finalists of Europe.
Both the leagues I spend the most time on.

Shameful!!

Haha totally totally pure disbelief. France was 1.55 to win this game and come on, that was supposed to be amazing value because the French desperately needed to win and Croatia was supposed to be lucky in the previous win not playing at their full strength.

Unfortunately for me,,, I did not continue to bet on Croatia but I should have. Really disappointed I went the other way AGAIN for a favorite and lost.

I also had France to get a narrow win but I think that Croatia deserved the win,in the last two games they are turning back to their normal being,a great team and they can beat anyone now.Denmark I think is the head of the group and without a doubt will continue to be so until the end of the competition.

No one can say that Croatia is or was lucky,yesterday night they completely dominated the game and the score maybe could have been even better.Most probably they will make it to the Nations League finals which as far as I know are planned for 2023.

Oh no I did not say Croatia was lucky that last game against France, but perhaps the one before that, a few fine moments and they were in. On the other hand I would not see any group stage result as an indicator of finals performance.

So you say Denmark will be winning the group, but Croatia will make it to finals? Which one? Only group winners in League A go to the finals Wink

Isn't that enough though? I mean we are talking about something that Stake did, so it is definitely helping them out first, or at least "should" help them out. 10 million is not a small amount and I do not know if they will make 10 million back from this Everton deal, but I know that there are some whales who will lose a ton of money so it should be fine for them in the long run. Remember, this is the place where Drake plays too, so there could be some people losing millions anyway. Secondly, even if stake is getting the biggest share of the benefits, could we say that crypto gets none? I do not think so, this puts crypto to a whole new pedestal for sure.

I think it is enough,,, so crazy that such an amount is not seen as enough. Everton have been spending a lot already and they now have a small problem that the wage bill is high and they need to perform plus the new stadium took on a lot more debt also,,, they need to find a way to break into Champions League football so they need every bit they can get. Stake hopes the same of course and this is part of the gamble Wink

What it actually does for crypto I cannot say,,, but it cannot be harmful Smiley
266  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UFC Fight Night & Main Event: Sportsbet.io Predictions & discussion on: June 14, 2022, 09:11:36 AM
@leea-1334 It was the best UFC event ever I think and even Chael Sonnen a former fighter from Bad Guy Inc was saying that main event was the greatest he had ever seen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Plxs7RS86Og

Micheal Bisping was mentioning about how they were all great fights from start to finish:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRT5U61hyw4
Joanna retired from the UFC and at the end of the fight she laid her gloves down on the ring floor to show this as her last fight.
She has been fighting for the past 20 years. She must of started really young in her teens because she doesn't look that old.
But she was a character as you can see from those face-offs you posted the link too.
Here is the youtube video of all the post-fight interviews having the fighters answering questions about how they felt on how it all went down:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GaePaBHIT38

As for the new light heavyweight champion Jiri, I liked his response to how he handled the fight and what happened in the ring for him to finish it very late like that:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5n36KyxNnEA


Yes, it seemed like it turned out to be such a big event, funny that as I said maybe here or somewhere else my local news is not covering it much but after the fight, I saw most papers showed photos from the event.

I guess sometimes marketing fails to reach us here.

Joanna is so amazing half her life fighting but I do see the effects on her face and body, it must be such a torture despite looking like having a fit body. Not so much how old she looks I agree she looks pretty good but the facial injuries you can see.

Amazing days!

He came from Argentina in Sai Paulo on loan from Deportivo Maldonado, but the played in Europe before also on loan.
Calleri paid of very good for now.

Cool,,, really good to know so he has been in Europe already, it feels quite strange usually for a player from South America to go back there after already playing abroad, usually this only happens when you are about to retire or play out your golden days in the clubs where you grew up.

Anyway good win vs america MG, I would bet on them again, probably I would end up with better luck than international games like you.

@darxiaomi I did not know from your name you are Argentinian Smiley Which part if I can ask? Deportivo Maldonado sounds like one of the Russian oligarch teams Wink

user PL Guru (also known as jim carrey lol) was the only who predicted 1-0 Croatia... congrats 🤝

I just cannot believe it that I got both scores wrong yesterday.
Still can't believe Portugal did not manage to at least score one goal and get away with a draw.
I'm livid that France are losing
the magic of the Nations League. Pure disbelief  Wink

Deschamps is very lucky the WC is right around the corner and that everyone downplays the nations league, otherwise, they would've sacked him last month... Croatia though are looking great lately (except for the 0-3 to Austria, a glitch in the matrix, tbh), really hope they make it to the Nations League Finals

Haha totally totally pure disbelief. France was 1.55 to win this game and come on, that was supposed to be amazing value because the French desperately needed to win and Croatia was supposed to be lucky in the previous win not playing at their full strength.

I already said before I do not feel sorry for Luna holders but if you guys are reading this,,, please stop the nightmare and stop enriching project devs. Get out and move on.
Yes, it was done, Luna has turned to scam and even the devs will come up with another way to rebuild their reputation, yet it was ruined already and investors will never forget about it. In fact, they used to have forked but seems it never change the mindset of the people, it still dump and get worsen. I'd never know if there is someone who can afford to hold Luna, I guess everyone is moving out from this scam project.

It did not 'turn to scam' though. It was already a scam from the beginning (look up Do Kwon previous project before Luna). Exact same mechanism exact same depegging exact same exit.

So this Luna 2.0 is at least the third time he is scamming people,,, as I keep saying often. Shitcoins are shitcoins. They do not turn to scam,,, they are scams from the start just waiting to happen!
270  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will LUNA's downfall scare away investors from the crypto market? on: June 13, 2022, 11:24:52 AM
Yeah, he just funded himself through that "recovery" plan that he has proposed to everyone. But look, we can't blame the bear market this time because sure he for sure made money out of this situation and he should pay all of the damages he's done to every investor of his tokens.

But he will never do anything like this,,, if there is anything anyone can take as a lesson from history of altcoin scammers and of Do Kwon himself, it is that he is sticking around to make even more money from all the believers.

I already said before I do not feel sorry for Luna holders but if you guys are reading this,,, please stop the nightmare and stop enriching project devs. Get out and move on.

Cristiano Ronaldo was not in the team, and Portugal lost. I am not saying that Portugal played badly. They played very well and attacked a lot. But still they could not able to score. Players are more confident when Ronaldo is in the team, which makes their overall gameplay more beautiful. Although Ronaldo's performance has been poor, Ronaldo's presence in the squad has had a profound effect on Portugal's team performance.
They won the first match against Switzerland 4-0. The Czech Republic won 2-0. And Ronaldo was absent from two matches, and Portugal failed to win both.

They already thought they had some important points I guess from when he played,,, 2 goals and an assist in his last appearance. What a nice problem to have though right? Keep the most important goalscorer and prevent the team from trying out new formations with new players? Or train the team for the future but risk losing out on a tournament.

I believe being Nations League, the second option was more attractive Wink

I wish this post was true,,, but today we are experiencing a really bad period so far especially because ETH is now below the 2017 ATH,,, and to be living in a time when you are holding ETH that was more valuable 5 years ago, that is something of a warning to BTC.

And yes ETH case is probably the merging news but Bitcoin also dropping is all pointing to stock market and inflation news effects. Tough week for everyone.

I just cannot believe it that I got both scores wrong yesterday. I risked to get a Spain draw and that is such an expensive move as I now went out of the Top 5 and further away from LuckyGuy.

But I guess we should offer congratulations to casperBGD for getting TWO exact scores,,, I can see the yellow cap coming to rest on his head pretty soon Smiley

^I saw some picture posted online with the two of them showing their faces so battered looking,,, but trying to smile, and the loser congratulating the winner very well. That is real sportsmanship man versus man and win or lose,,, respect.

Some sports people get so tight on losing or even on winning they just cannot congratulate the better opponent.

Also rdbase I read Joanna retired, tribute faceoff Smiley https://youtu.be/TrYVPh8X9GA

I'm still having difficulties in believing that Sportsbet.io was established only six years ago. Sportsbet.io has got bigger a lot in six years. For years, the Premier League teams being in the first place they are the sponsor of very big clubs. They are offering quite much chance to their members too. I'm very happy also for having the honour of meeting Steve and the other Sportsbet workers. To many happy years!  🥳🎂🎉🎉

To name even one other casino on this forum who goes out to meet their players I cannot do,,, but to meet tons of players? Sportsbet should do a public meetup for Bitcoin and show everyone outside how it goes for their players. Bitcoin adoption needs people like Sportsbet. 6 more years!  Cheesy Cheesy

Is anyone following Sportsbet partners Sao Paulo and Seria A from Brazil?
They had three draws in a raw but they didn't lose a match since April, and tomorrow they play against America MG.
I think home win could be good bet, and Sao Paulo is always better in their home stadium Estadio do Morumbi.
Currently best goals scorer in league is Calleri from Sao Paulo with nine goals Wink
https://sportsbet.io/sports/event/soccer/brazil/brasileiro-serie-a/sao-paulo-fc-sp-v-america-fc-mg-629dac283fd40f7f2d76ef54

I used to for sure a lot,,, during the times we had Soccer Blackjack they were one of the most frequent picks Serie A games from Brazil are always full of points (corners and cards and goals all coming in last 10/15 minutes).

I have to admit I stopped following for a while now but this guy Calleri I wonder when he goes to Europe? Wink
277  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sportsbet.io UEFA Nations League Prediction Pool Discussion Thread on: June 12, 2022, 09:20:42 AM
Trofo! I cannot believe Croatia won it! I got a nice bet win, and that is after a long time for me too not taking this kind of bet, and somehow they made me happy. Just only,,, too bad I did not go bigger with the bet.
I watched the match. Modric completely changed the game after he came on, truly amazing to see how big of an impact one of the greatest midfielders of all time can have as a sub. Kovacic was immense too.

Not for the first time this year,,, last year or years before. It will not be for the last time to be sure either,,, the master practically carried Real to both titles this season, along with Benzema of course, but you feel like he used up all his credit for 2018 Ballon and then suddenly now he is so good people are looking away.

I wonder why.

^rdbase Hehe no no I meant when I said that about where the location of the matches were. I work in Singapore currently (but unfortunately,,, not the glitzy parts and more like closer to the other big neighbor) and still do not know the areas so well myself BUT somehow did not even realize the matches for this weekend were here Smiley

I always check Sportsbet threads for sure,,,

Anyway Valentina won but round 5 so went that far and great job about your Zhang pick!

Thanks, I had a nice 2 days off from work because I did last 2 weeks a long time and managed to fill my nights with football, too bad they do not like giving me rest on weekend or I could try watch new things like UFC.

I already make one bet on Croatia tonight, now I also made a Santos bet @4.86. I like the odds too,,, but that Sevchenko Valentina looks like a sure thing so is my prediction pick Wink
Since your in Asia this UFC will be set in your timezone since it is being hosted in Singapore.
They mentioned an early start time at the end of the weigh-ins so you just might be able to watch it while it is happening instead of the re-runs this UFC event.

How did this even manage to pass under my radar I didn't know  Grin

I always assumed all UFC fights were happening in USA, I know sometimes even in Asia but not in my area/region.

Seems like our sports coverage here at least in the local circles aren't really still aware of UFC things going on, my bad. I just checked and everything is happening around lunch time my time! When I am working!!
