I missed on only one game (before the final game tomorrow), the Genoa win, but man...the pitch on Stadio Luigi Ferraris is in critical condition, it looks more like a random piece of land in the middle of nowhere rather than a football pitch. The bad weather, way too many games played in a very short period of time has almost completely destroyed it. My point, both Sampdoria (don't forget their surprise win over Inter just a couple of days ago) and Genoa will have an advantage playing there, as they are used to play in that mud bath.

Two big derbies next week, Lazio vs. Roma and Inter vs. Juventus!

interesting point, did not had a chance to watch Sampdoria or Genoa lately, and if the pitch is that bad, it is an advantage for home, and should be taken into account
yeah, this round results were widely expected, and one could predict them almost all, but previous rounds brought many upsets, and that is why I set some upsets in every round, and that did not get well into this round, I did not expected that Lazio will win in Parma, nevertheless they did, and they made Parma's fifth lose in a row, eight matches without a win - they are on the road to hell (Serie B for them)

Predicting all 10 outcomes is such difficult task.

Take out the draws, like this round for example, as we have just one so far, i think 10 correct outcomes can be achieved.

My post above didn't aged well Cheesy. Juventus managed to win 3:1 and @tyKiwanuka got exact score. 5 exact scores, 21 points and we still have on game on Monday. Very impressive performance.

Yeah right! Crazy round from him, I've dropped a position on the leaderboard.

I know some of you have been playing these Superbru pools for two or more years now, my question is, has anyone ever got all 10 outcomes correct in a single round, 10 outcomes = 3 slam points. Has this been done before, i mean forum wise?
I think I haven't saw such thing. My best achievement in previous EPL season was probably 8 correct outcomes if I'm not mistaken and 20 or 20.5 points. Predicting all 10 outcomes is such difficult task.
BTW, @tyKiwanuka is doing impressive stuff so far, 4 exact scores. Though, it will be difficult to get many points from Juve game, he had their win 3:1, while we have boring 0:0 at halftime.

I was ecstatic when I saw the score page and saw I've 3 exact scores and other close ones, only to check the leaderboard and discover someone is having a better run, It's still a somewhat high scoring round all round as every one in the pool has got double figure...

I've got Juventus to win 2 - 0, meanwhile they just took the lead as the 2nd half began, but with Sassuolo down to 10 men this might be bad  Lips sealed

I took Bologna to win for our pool, but i'm pretty sure they will draw for sixth time in a row, aren't they? Lol  I just hope there will be goals scored, i have small parlay BTTS + Milan/Torino O8.5 corners for 2.30 total odds. Wish me luck!  Grin

edit; off to a good start lol, genoa to nil!

^ Have to really credit Milan for being the last among the Big Four European leagues to finally taste defeat, but they probably missed their best chance so far to deliver a psychological blow to the Old Lady. Saved myself some pain by not betting big on them, but it is still going to be looked back as a missed opportunity for them.
Both to score. The only market worth playing in Italy last two seasons. I never play anything else and the best thing is - the odds are still much better then in some other leagues. I had 4 BTS games from Italy yesterday which passed easy including Milan game. If I am not mistaken only Atalanta kept a clean sheet this week.

Too bad I needed one more game for insurance on Sportsbet and I was on the limb between PSG and Lille to win their games and I chose Lille for higher odds. In the end neither managed so it was a bust for sure but another free bet is here.

So, Milan got first defeat in Serie A this season, Juve had really solid game. And after this game, Juventus situation significantly improved, they are now just 7 points behind Miland and they still have one game in advance.

Last round we had a grand total of 6 exact scores between all of us, this round we are doing so much better, 20 exact scores already with two games left to be played. Almost everyone has 10+ pts and LTU_btc is killing it, he needs one close result and he will reach 20 (which i think will be a pool record so far).
Well, it shows how few exact scores can change everything. Until this round I probably had least exact predictions in whole pool and now I was able to get up from 9th to 7th place. Fun thing that I almost forgot to leave predictions - I had no idea that they can play midweek games so early, I thought it will be played in the evening.

I actually think that consolidation is happening and more normal results are on the way.

Question is whether you think Milan defeating Juve is normal? haha

Inter unexpectedly dropping three points + Juventus losing, that would be simply FantasticoGrin

It's an high scoring week generally! I've got 11.5 points so far... The fun fact is on Torino vs Verona match, we've got more users with the exact scores than those who were wrong about the result, and it was a uniform prediction..

Juventus losing, that would be simply FantasticoGrin

No, please! I've got a draw on this!!!

agree, if you are good in betting, does not matter where you are in the pool, at least from my point of view
I was at the bottom in the pool, for as long as the pool started, and still hoovering just above it, but I am still trying to be better

nevertheless, as long my betting experience is better than this, I am good with that

regarding the pool, I did not expected Atalanta performance, Sassuolo seem to be more stable this season, but Bergamo team is just playing for better or worse, and it does not matter who is actually in the team, they could beat everyone, and lose from every team in the same time

Well they can't loose from everyone in the league for sure, it's not that random team when it comes to Atalanta.

Me with the wooden spoon again. I wonder if Superbru has a special award for people who actually try very hard and still fall flat;) I've even managed to slide down across all the league pools in Superbru, embarrassingly at 75% in all of them, except global ones. And that's probably because of inactive players.

As long as I'm still winning in the betting, right guys?

Dybala's last-second goal for 4:1 ruined what could have been my only exact score of this round, annoying.  Sad

There were a couple more annoying results overall, Spezia/Verona was a draw written all over it, it took a red card and a bicycle kick by Zaccagni for Verona to win, i needed a goal from Benevento (they missed a penalty), the red card for Cagliari inflated the end result too much. Lazio's inconsistent play continues, Torino with their only second win of the season (congrats to those who picked them). Regardless, decent round for everyone i guess!

I have Atalanta on one of my legs today, super tough game and Sassuolo are evenly matched on paper, so 5/1 is a good bet, but I just thought after the rest Atalanta should be on fire today.

Then again. Crotone leading Inter right now after just 12 minutes, and actually playing slightly better. We'll see. Live bet on Inter comeback tempting but not if they're playing like they are right now heh.

Edit: Screw me, Inter 1-1 =D

@LTU_btc you can't change predictions after kick off, and that seems to be time set on Superbru, rather than actual kickoff times. I've seen that happen before:)

BTW guys don't forget the first games of 2021 start tomorrow! Personally I think the favourites should have no problem with all the rest they'll have had. Or maybe they party too hard and underdogs stand a chance?

other thing that I have spotted in some earlier rounds is that beginning times for matches in Superbru do not match with actual times, and that could be exploited (there were few examples, most notably Getafe - Villareal in Spain, few rounds ago, and I saw that there was a lot good picks on that match), Superbru lock those matches after first goal that is reported by their contributors
usually, I put my picks on Thursday/Friday, and do not change anything (whenever I changed, that did not brought me any luck)
I haven't noticed beginning time of matches on Superbru and actual time doesn't match yet. But locking matches after first goal isn't true actually. What if it's goaless game, you can change your prediction until the end of game? I tried to check this thing on Sevilla - Villarreal game today, it started 17:00 local time and when I checked on 17:01 it was already not possible to change prediction.

You can see other people picks even if they are not locked 100%. If you want to test it check my picks, they are not locked except for Sevilla game. I lock only the games which I bet on so I can check what you guys played and have some sort of reality check.

There is some possibility for abuse but that only comes into play in last rounds and you can always just tinker your picks 5 minutes before the game starts and make it almost a non issue. There is much more possibilities for abuse by multi acounting in our Premier League and we discussed it there in more detail.

it is possible to see other picks, but you have to lock your picks prior, or am I missing something, so if you lock your pick, it is of no use for the competition that you will see other picks, since you cannot change your own?
maybe, if you have two or three accounts, and one using just for the oversight for other people picks, but that would be too much of the effort for this pool? with BTC rising, reward is better, but it is just too much effort for a year to follow all picks, and you cannot guarantee success after all, it is just good for last rounds, if you are on the top, and have one follower, but you should came to the top in the first place

nevertheless, I do not see much of a worry there
