Trofo you around?  I've been goading this guy to take a bet vs me on who becomes Juve's next manager at the Serie A thread.  Lol.  If it's Sarri, I win, if it's Pep he wins and if it's anybody else, it's a draw.  You wanna take it?  20 bucks.

He seems really confident it's Pep based in his info but won't bet.  If anybody else trusted wants to take it, just quote and reply.  Smiley

I am usually interested for any kind of bet, but this time I have to pass. I also believe Sarri is a done deal and if I was making odds I would put them at around @1.2 for Sarri to became next Juve manager so no value for me.



@hilariousetc

I'll send you my btc address in few hours when I get home. Thanks for organizing another great pool.

Can the top five winners send me their addresses (either this account or my main is fine).

I am a little disappointed with today's game but that is probably because of high standards set up in previous CL games. This was a final after all and you don't go to final to play but to win it. Congrats to Liverpool, well deserved title for them.

I think Spurs players will be unhappy with the performance since they never really gave their best shot tonight. After trailing 1:0 they should have gone all in and made hell for Liverpool in last 20 minutes. Who cares if you loose the final 1:0 or 2:0.

It was a disappointing game. Having an all English final was never that exciting to me. Was just like another Premier League game, only worse. Given what was at stake neither team looked like they were that bothered during the match. Bang average game to be honest.

Good luck everyone. Still very close at the top with only a few points deciding places so there could be a mix up depending on the outcome. I went tactical with the 2-2 draw given the positioning of those directly above and below me and because nobody other than tokeweed went with the draw (and same score) and I can't catch him in second anyway. I'm joint sixth so need at least a point from the draw which would take me into fifth place as slaman29 who is directly above me and LTI_btc who is directly below both went for Liverpool wins. For the record I think Liverpool will pinch it but decided to go all or nothing as the three points would take me all the way into third place as those above also backed the Liverpool win. Only one person had the balls to go with a Spurs win but he unfortunately can't win anything at this stage.

Keep an eye out for the new Premier League and CL pools that I'll open for players to sign up within the next few days.

Well, gotta say you and toke took the risk indeed, it was probably the more pragmatic approach as well, I just saw as well that LTI and slaman took wins so at least we'll see someone win 5th place outright.


Yeah, was looking like Spurs might get the equaliser in the last 25 mins or so as they dominated the match for that bit, but then Liverpool got the second goal and the game was all over.

Put a link here and in PL thread so we make sure that all previous participants noticed new pools as well. The more the merrier, I already have one new participant lined up to join us next year.

I will do. I will wait until I've got all the payments sent out for this pool first. Hopefully there will be more players this year. Hopefully I can get another sponsor to boost the pot again. Didn't get a reply from Cloudbet about doing it again. Might set up an auction for it.

Well, I made it to top5, even sharing the same points with fourth place but I guess different results head to head makes be ranked 5th. Didn't ever expect anything so I'm very happy. My own team got knocked out by Liverpool so I guess it's "good" to see them win it. Final was a bit boring wasn't it? But yeah, what to expect, people come to win not to show off. Congrats to Trofo and those above me, thanks to hilarious for organizing. This is my second win (I also ranked for the World Cup) so I will want to try again of course!

Yes I am the fourth and I have more individual wins over you that is why I am fourth and you fifth, nevertheless congratulations on your exact score on Liverpool which made you come fifth.

I was so close to reach top 5, but even correct prediction tonight wouldn't had helped to reach it. Thank you hilariousandco for running this pool. Congrats to all guys in top 5. And offcourse congrats to all Liverpool supporters here. I only can imagine that LFC_Bitcoin have great night in MadRed right now!
See you guys next season.

Good luck to both, but yeah I'd rather Liverpool win this in Full Time. That penalty was a freak one, to be honest I'd never have given it but Sissoko really needs to be better at this level (and I know we were the recipients of sloppiness last season with Karius's mistakes!). The match was getting dangerous yet without any shots of note until Robbo's fantastic shot, he will probably get another chance or two.

1-0 halftime. Can't complain!

Thanks for yet another great pool, whatever happens. I'll def keep an eye out over the next week for new pools!

@LFC Saw your pics in the main thread so will respond there too later when I'm home on computah, but just to say we're all (almost?) willing the Reds on even from behind our TVs tonight. Go have a good one mate!

Tomorrow is the final so put your predictions on , the people on the top five will probably play on Liverpool to win including myself, the others which are near the top five in order to have a chance they need to play against Liverpool. Let's see how it goes.

Thanks for the reminder! Pointless for me to play but yeah, 3rd to 5th positions aren't exactly safe yet, 6th and 5th are tied so there's everything to play for with the final 3 points of this season. Trofo's already the champ but we knew that a long time ago;) 3-0 for me haha!

And thanks for the escrow LFC_Bitcoin.  Let's do it again next season.  Smiley

I am definitely hoping we will be doing few pools next year as well. Premier League and Champions League ones are a must in my opinion. I would also be open to some other league pools but maybe it is better to keep it just for these most popular choices. Hopefully, we will manage to attract few more players as well, 50 participants sounds like a nice round number to strive for.

@tokeweed
Post your BTC address (preferably segwit but legacy will do as well) and I'll pay out 30$ as per out bet as soon as the games is over. Provided there isn't some surprises. I was very happy for whole 30 seconds Brighton had a lead Smiley If you have some good site for BTC/USD ratio reference (or if there is some forum standard) feel free to include that link as will.

50 Participants is a great number if we manage to have for the next upcoming pools this next end of August. Things would be more interesting for sure, and the prices would be higher.

^  Ok, if you say so.  Anyway, next time we should bet on who we think the top team will be but not include Merc, Ferrari and RBR.

Let's give it a couple more races and I pay you.  Lol.
Oh, I remember it, but there was only few races so far, let's wait until the end of the season Cheesy

I know I owe LTU_btc some for an F1 side bet and I feel I'm gonna owe Trofo some this Sunday. 
As I remember, you don't owe me nothing lol Cheesy. Because I was wrong that Ricciardo will have more points than Verstappen and you've been wrong that Red Bull will have more points than Ferrari Cheesy

I feel I'm gonna owe Trofo some this Sunday.  Lol.  I really fear for City.

It's other way around for me. I am thinking City will win their fixture rather comfortably. Maybe a bit tough game with result like 0:0 in half time and 2:0 City win by the end. As I already wrote somewhere both City and LFC have done some incredible things this season in the Premier League and they both more than deserve to be Champions. I have already put aside this week signature campaign payment so I can pay off my bet without hassle  Tongue

And what to say about Europe. 4 English teams in finals and that is even without City (arguably the strongest English team).

I had a dream that the finals will be a banger! 4-2 LFC calling it now, let's go! (soon, lol)

6 goals in the final ? Hasn't happened from 2007 I believe when Liverpool drawn Milan from 3-0 to 3-3 and won that trophy. Those were beautiful days for soccer.
