The lowest odd bet is the only one to lose in last night's bets for you.
Usually the case for myself but atleast it wasn't in a parlay to ruin the entire bet, so you are already in good profit.

Some bets on the UFC & Boxing for tonight but football is just around the corner so you know Sportsbet Specials are available from ClubHouseTV for tomorrow's Community Shield match with Arsenal vs Manchester city:
https://sportsbet.io/sports/sportsbet-specials/daily-specials/chtv/matches

Surely it is well because I don't trust the Chicago Sky to win anymore I have gone with the Dallas Wings and suffer the consequence but surely it was a great match I really think the Chicago Sky have already seen their capabilities in winning this one, so they might surely win, but yeah it is really 50/50,

Now! my result for my bet for this game yesterday,

Washington Mystics VS Los Angeles Sparks SCORE 79 - 77 - WIN

It was a great game actually I was standing while watching this out of the thrill of might losing this one, a close game like this is surely heart-pounding, well I really think that Dearica Hamby also did a great job in adding those points for this game but surely Azura Stevens and Nneka Ogwumike is the one that is lifting the heavy equipment needed for this game, Shatori Walker-Kimbrough got 11 points, Queen Egbo got 15 points and Tianna Hawkins got 17 points winning this game,

Indiana Fever VS Connecticut Sun SCORE 72 - 88 - WIN

A great start for the Connecticut Sun and they surely continue with this lead until they have really won it, surely the Indiana Fever have done their all in making the approach with the score of the Connecticut Sun but it was really hard for them, Alyssa Thomas and Dijonai Carrington both got 11 points, DeWanna Bonner got 14 and Tiffany Hayes got 18 a great spread for the Sun,

Minnesota Lynx VS New York Liberty SCORE 66 - 76 - WIN

Now the Minnesota Lynx was incredible despite those injuries, but it was not enough even though this is a close game a win is a win, and the New York Liberty won it, actually, the 4 players that have done a great job with this game are Jonquel Jones has a double-double of 17 rebound and 15 points, Betnijah Laney and Breanna Stewart both got 17 points and Sabrina Ionescu got 18 points,

Dallas Wings VS Chicago Sky SCORE 89 - 104 - LOST

The only loss I attain for sure it was really a great game the Chicago Sky have finally win this game and I really thought that they will lose because they are really inconsistent, but right now a great job with Marina Mabrey's 16 points, Alanna Smith got 20 points and Courtney Williams and Kahleah Copper both got 25 points,

[rdbase]

We have the FA Community Shield beginning in the next couple of hours so you know this match-up will be hyped with last season's champions of the EPL Manchester City versus a competent looking Arsenal line-up.
Kai Havertz & Declan Rice will make their debut appearances with the Arsenal line-up today.

The EPL is less than a week away and Sportsbet launched a cashback promotion for the first round of the EPL.

The requirement to be eligible for the cashback is to have at least one outright bet on the EPL and opt-in through the promotion page. The minimum bet for the outright bet is $100 and you can place any outright bet on the EPL because there's no minimum odds requirement.

[rdbase]

Seen that promotion last week from an email they sent out and it is a great one to take part of right before the season begins this week. Because 10% cashback isn't bad at all especially if you are placing huge amounts on these matches. I usually do at the start of the season with either BTTS or the over 1.5 goals.
But I got a little bit too ambitious and placed some rather big bets equaling over $100 on the Manchester City vs Arsenal match on Sunday for the FA Community Shield and lost them.
So will be playing a bit more discreet this Friday's kick-off and season starting football weekend for me.

Luka magic strikes again in Ljubljana; Serbia get first win in Aegean Acropolis

MIES (Switzerland) - Slovenia and Serbia both claim wins in an exciting double-header Tuesday in tuneup games in preparation for the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2023 for both teams.

https://www.fiba.basketball/basketballworldcup/2023/news/luka-magic-strikes-again-in-ljubljana-serbia-get-first-win-in-aegean-acropolis

Luka Doncic's exit in the 2nd game against Greece made me worry that I won't see him again. But he came back stronger and got a win against Montenegro. A damn display of his stats 21 points, 14 assists, and 10 rebounds.
This is good news for the fans of the Slovenian star and their whole team. I didn't made a bet for them because I thought he will play in restricted minutes due to the injury but I guess I am wrong.

Tomorrow. We have one international-friendly game listed.
Italy versus Greece
Greece is the favorite but I won't underestimate the power of Italy after they beat Serbia while they are down by 17 points. They are strong too and I am glad this event is getting more competitive even in a friendly game.
Moneyline: Italy @2.47 | Greece @1.48

There have been some appearances of NBA superstars for the teams who have played these tune-up matches so far.
Such as Schroder from the Lakers in the game for Germany yesterday.
Team USA are looking the more stacked team of the names we recognize the most:
https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/team-usa-basketball-roster-anthony-edwards-paolo-banchero-jalen-brunson-highlight-fiba-2023-world-cup-team

The OKC Thunder are the team who have sent the most notable players from their roster for this tournament:
https://thunderousintentions.com/2023/08/08/okc-thunder-best-player-fiba-world-cup
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Lu Dort, Jack White, and Josh Giddey. Also Jalen Williams and Chet Holmgren as back-up for Team USA's roster if they do indeed need them.

Next would be Canada but Jamal Murray had decided to not play during these exhibition games and might not even take part in FIBA all together:

My picks for the WNBA games and the 1st game are now already starting,

Indiana Fever (2.09) VS Minnesota Lynx (1.66)

The game will commence at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, the home of Indiana Fever, and right now Indiana Fever doesn't have any injuries, while Natalie Achonwa has a personal problem, and Dorka Juhasz has a hamstring and both can not play for the Minnesota Lynx, for this game, it was really easy for me to go for the Indiana Fever because even with their injury and the Fever has a 100% players that injury from the Lynx wasn't their key injured players, so my pick is the Minnesota Lynx



Seattle Storm (2.70) VS Atlanta Dream (1.40)

The game will commence at Climate Pledge Arena, the home of the Seattle Storm, and right now Gabby Williams has a foot injury and is out for this season, while Atlanta Dream doesn't have any injuries, so for this game, it is really good that the Dream doesn't have injuries you can see that they are in their 100% form, so for this game going with the favorite to win, my pick is the Atlanta Dream,



Phoenix Mercury (3.60) VS Connecticut Sun (1.25)

The game will commence at Footprint Center, the home of the Phoenix Mercury, and right now Skylar Diggins-Smith has a personal problem and Shey Peddy has a concussion and both are out from the Phoenix Mercury and unable to play, while Brionna Jones has an Achilles injury and is now out for this season, for this game without much injury and because of the domination on most of their game, and Mercury doesn't have any winnings against them my pick is the Connecticut Sun,

[jakelyson]

Here are my picks and bets for games today, in the WNBA

Indiana Fever vs Minnesota Lynx

The Indiana Fever is having a game against the Minnesota Lynx, at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, for this game No injuries for the Indiana Fever, while Natalie Achonwa (personal) and Dorka Juhasz (hamstring) can not play for the Minnesota Lynx, this game is surely the favorites those Injuries from the Lynx was really nothing because they are long injured players so without them the Lynx can still win this one,

Seattle Storm vs Atlanta Dream

The Seattle Storm is having a game against the Atlanta Dream, at Climate Pledge Arena, for this game, Gabby Williams (foot), and can not play for the Seattle Storm while Atlanta Dreams doesn't have any injuries, for this game now that Atlanta Dream does have a good advantage and without injuries it is a safe bet for them for sure so my pick is the Atlanta Dream,

Phoenix Mercury vs Connecticut Sun

The Phoenix Mercury is having a game against the Connecticut Sun, at Footprint Center, for this game Skylar Diggins-Smith (personal) and Shey Peddy (concussion) is out and can not play for the Phoenix Mercury, while Brionna Jones (Achilles) and she is out for this season, so for this game that injuries were really nothing for both teams but I have seen the capabilities of both team, Brionna Jones might be a great player for the Sun but I think that they can pull this off today so my pick is the Connecticut Sun,

[YuginKadoya]

Great guys now here are mine which I am also going with the Favorites,

Indiana Fever  VS Minnesota Lynx

The odds for this game are 2.09 for the Fever and 1.66 for the Lynx, for this game the Indiana Fever doesn't have any injuries while the Lynx has Natalie Achonwa and Dorka Juhasz can not play for the Minnesota Lynx, for this game, the favorite is the Lynx for a reason, those injuries was not their main players while the Fever doesn't have any injuries the Minnesota Lynx is winning without those injuries so they are like a team without any injuries aswell, so my pick is the Minnesota Lynx

Seattle Storm VS Atlanta Dream

The odds for this game are 2.70 for the Storm and 1.40 for the Dream, for this game Gabby Williams is out for this season, for the Seattle Storm, while there are no injuries for the Dream, so for this game, this is going to be a Lynx game without putting any effort in possessing those injuries, right now my pick is the favorite aswell the Atlanta Dream,

Phoenix Mercury VS Connecticut Sun

The odds for this game are 3.60 for the Mercury and 1.25 for the Sun, for this game Skylar Diggins-Smith and Shey Peddy are both out and can not play for the Mercury, while Brionna Jones can not play for the Connecticut Sun, for this game it is likely that the Connecticut Sun, but if Diana Taurasi fired up in this game it could get worst for the Sun but she is consistent right now, so my pick is the Connecticut Sun,

Sportsbet Specials Clubhouse TV:
https://sportsbet.io/sports/sportsbet-specials/daily-specials/chtv/matches

Thanks for sharing the link to the daily specials. I went in on the Gunners, Magpies, and Seagulls boosted multi @3.00 (original odds are at 2.76).



Aston Villa might ruin it for me but I still think the odds are too good because I don't see Arsenal and Brighton dropping points at home. It's almost like a single bet combined with multiple boosted odds.

[rdbase]

^^
I was thinking the exactly same thing ralle14!
There is usual one match that manages to make one of these specials fail in the parlay.
When I was going to take one of the specials last weekend I noticed if I took the superboost it raised the acca by approximately 0.20-0.25x higher than the one shown. Checked now and the original odds are 2.79x.
But then you would need to wait a few hours before the first match begins to see if it would available for those selections. Because sometimes they are not.
We will have to see if there will be any superboosts available for any of these matches where Arsenal will be two hours from now against Nottingham Forest:
https://sportsbet.io/sports/event/soccer/england/premier-league/arsenal-fc-v-nottingham-forest-648acc618922ec77137045e1

Hope you all won your bets guys!

All of us surely went into a death trap, and for sure all home game wins and we lost it all because we went into the favorites, it was frustrating and hilarious at the same time because all of the bets went into losing, but hilarious at the same time all of us ended up losing because we all went into the same bets,

Here are the result of my bet for Yesterday's game I have already posted it on the WNBA thread,

Here is the result of my bet and pick not going to post any bet ticket because all was just a loss,

Indiana Fever vs Minnesota Lynx - LOST

Funny because the Minnesota Lynx was making a good start but instead they lost it all in the 4th quarter because they lost faith in making a comeback it was really a loss for the Minnesota Lynx, Rachel Banham, Jessica Shepard, Diamond Miller, and Kayla McBride Did a great job in making those spread but it was the Indiana Fever that won because they never stop,

Seattle Storm vs Atlanta Dream - LOST

With just 1 point I was lost because of that 1 point but it was a close game actually both teams did a great job in making it happen for sure but it was really terrible it could be my 1st win for this bet but it wasn't,

Phoenix Mercury vs Connecticut Sun - LOST

Brittney Griner Exploded and the Phoenix Mercury had exploded 45 points in the 1st quarter but it was shaken off in the 2nd quarter well because of that great lead they just throw their defense out of the window, well Rebecca Allen and Alyssa Thomas had a masterful play but it was not enough and pretty much late in their part in taking the lead because the Phoenix Mercury just up the notch,

As you can see most games were close to one the Indiana Fever vs Minnesota Lynx score was 91 - 73 that makes the Indiana Fever make an 18 lead against the Minnesota Lynx, It was surely not a good sight to behold that loss for the Minnesota Lynx,

While Seattle Storm vs Atlanta Dream Score was 68 - 67 making just 1 lead for the Seattle Storm, for sure the Atlanta Dream can win this game but likely the pace and momentum were on Seattle Storm,

And lastly Phoenix Mercury vs Connecticut Sun, Score was 90 - 84 that was only 6 leads for the Phoenix Mercury another close game but surely the Mercury has covered a great deal of lead against the Connecticut Sun likely all of this game is unexpected and surprising for me,

https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/team-usa-basketball-roster-anthony-edwards-paolo-banchero-jalen-brunson-highlight-fiba-2023-world-cup-team

The OKC Thunder are the team who have sent the most notable players from their roster for this tournament:
https://thunderousintentions.com/2023/08/08/okc-thunder-best-player-fiba-world-cup
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Lu Dort, Jack White, and Josh Giddey. Also Jalen Williams and Chet Holmgren as back-up for Team USA's roster if they do indeed need them.

Yeah, actually there are a lot of NBA superstars who will join their respective countries for the event.
I was actually shocked at why Slovenia is a favorite although they only have Luka Doncic there as the popular player. I guess what they did in EuroBasket has also an effect on the odds.

Next would be Canada but Jamal Murray had decided to not play during these exhibition games and might not even take part in FIBA all together:

source: https://www.eurohoops.net/en/fibawc/1537196/canada-cautious-with-jamal-murray-as-three-players-pull-out

Jamal Murray. He will surely increase the odds of winning for Canada if only he will play but we have to respect every player's decision.

Don't forget about Australia.

Patty Mills (Atlanta Hawks)
Josh Giddey (Oklahoma City Thunder)
Jock Landale (Houston Rockets)
Joe Ingles (Orlando Magic)
Matisse Thybulle (Portland Trail Blazers)
Josh Green (Dallas Mavericks)
Xavier Cooks (Washington Wizards),
Dyson Daniels (New Orleans Pelicans)
Dante Exum (Dallas Mavericks)
Jack White (Oklahoma City Thunder)

One of the reasons why they are one of the top 5 of the favorites right now.

Later we have Iran versus Jordan for a friendly game. Jordan as favorite @1.48
Tomorrow is what I want to see. Italy versus Puerto Rico. Italy is the favorite @1.13 They are undefeated in the friendly games and better, they defeated Greece and Serbia. Let's see if they can continue the streak.

Good update on the current FIBA rosters for those two teams that will be graced by NBA players on their country teams in the world of basket-ball tournament.

Can't wait for the NBA season to start up just as the EPL did over the weekend.
It will be nice to have another league to begin betting on so to add into a parlay to inflate those odds on them once again.
When does the NBA start again?

This weekend was just a draw match type of a weekend in the EPL that ended alot of people's bets.
Best to forget because you'll end up chasing those losses trying to recoup your balance.
Don't fall into this trap of sportsbetting is the best advice to try and avoid that situation.

[ralle14]

Many thanks to Steve and Sportsbet for giving out a bunch of free bets this weekend. Hopefully, you guys got something as well.

I failed to get two wins in a row from my free bets after Liverpool drew against Chelsea but i'm still glad that I won the other free bet in the end, thanks to Rennes beating Metz by four goals.

When does the NBA start again?

We're still a few months away from the regular season, and before that starts, we'd also have the NFL regular season in September.

[rdbase]

^^
Yes I definitely know when the NFL season starts because this is the 2nd league I watch the most behind the EPL. Your's was one of the last posts from last season but since updated it for the very first pre-season games of this new 2023/2024 season: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5333903.msg62636653#msg62636653

And since it is in the broadcasting from the States there is no timezone difference where the matches are at a god awful time such as the Womens World Cup is now.
Can't stay up at four in the morning to watch a finals match and expect to be peak performance at work.
That is not possible to a sane individual one bit who works a regular 9-5 schedule.

Thought the commence of the FIBA tournament might change the start of the NBA regular season since some teams have sent their best players to play for their countries in this World championship tournament.
Was watching the USA vs Spain yesterday for their exhibition and Steve Kerr was the coach for the USA team:
https://www.nba.com/news/team-usa-pulls-away-from-spain-in-exhibition

So yes, it might be delayed since they are the best team for the worlds and Spain surprisingly is ranked right behind them at number two.

New daily specials for the Champion's League match between Marseille and Panathinaikos.

The first special is worth a shot at these odds now that Marseille will be playing at home. They're currently down a goal after losing 1-0 in the first leg, but the over 1.5 goals is a good combination because they'll need at least two or more goals to keep their qualifying hopes alive, and a few days ago, Vitinha scored a goal against Reims.

[rdbase]

ralle14 - Great observation on the goal difference fpr the UEFA champions league match happening later on today's Sportsbet Special offered under the ClubhouseTV market,
https://sportsbet.io/sports/sportsbet-specials/matches/today

Just woke up and seen the highlights for the semi-finals match in the Womens World Cup between Spain and Sweden.
It seemed to be a thrilling one1
They scored 3 goals in the final 10 minutes of the match.
The way the EPL went for the majority of the teams over the week, the mens side could learn from the ladies with the prowess of goal scoring during the late stages of the match.
Only Manchester City and Newcastle, new sponsors of Sportsbet.io by the way, managed to out score their opponents by more than 3 goals.
Brighton match doesn't count since they were playing a newly promoted team to the league.

[ralle14]

The Marseille daily special was close to hitting, but Vitinha's goal was overturned during ET.

Speaking of the Women's World Cup, today's daily special is the semi-finals match between England vs Australia. Both specials don't look that worth it when the match is close to a toss-up, and the deal breaker for me is the team totals because the current totals are so low (over/under 2). But I do have this single bet on the corners, even if it's a potentially low-scoring match I can still expect the total hitting at least 10 based on their previous results.
