I will not participate in the pool. As i said before, don't know a thing about cricket.

Sorry I missed that bud. I remember in one post now.

I will let you know once we have more than 5 participants. I also PMed minerjones for an ETH address however I am thinking now to do currency exchange in the forum if it needed.

May be we can create a currency exchange topic. BTC for ETH. BTC will be going directly to the escrow address and you pay the ETH buyer from you address.

We will see. Let's have more than 5 participants at least for now.

Thanks for your generosity.

Cheers :-)

Edit:
Update of the CSK vs RCB:
Seems like CSK is going to have an easy win. They are 7 down and only scored 54 runs. My pick was Comfortable win and looks like I will not get the extra 0.5 points :-P

Join now guys! https://www.superbru.com/ipl/pool.php?p=12014392

Now we have additional (potential) 0.2 ETH coming from Trofo.

I like what you did with opening this to public as free contest. I am willing to donate something to the cause. I don't have easily availble btc at the moment but if you have a way to make it work I am willing to donate 0.2 ETH which should be a bit more than original entry fee.

One condition: at least 10 people participting.

That would be awesome. May be I need to PM minerjones to provide and ETH address too. By the way I am not sure how many we will have however if you join the including you we will be three in total so far.

Feel free to join: https://www.superbru.com/ipl/pool.php?p=12014392

And let me know your superbru username so that I can update the list in my original post.

Thanks for opening up the pool for everyone. Quite generous of you. Joined your pool and made my first prediction already. Expecting CSK to win the opening match just like last year. This will be fun to watch.

What an awesome way to start of this IPL season! Chennai Super Kings are playing in Chennai after several years due to bans and controversies which is why the stadium will be packed with a legion of Chennai fans supporting their team.

The last 3 matches which you mentioned were truly close indeed. Luck simply favored Chennai here. I am expecting Chennai to win today primarily due to their lineup.

I just seen in the cable tv, the stadium is already packed. People are already chanting Dhoni Dhoni. I already risked some money for CSK knowing they will win. And I hope they will have an easy win.

By the way, I have decided to open this pool for everyone. Now free to join. The pool already has 0.005BTC So whoever wins they will be able to earn some free BTC.

Is this the bad luck for me? I'm facing problem with my dish line today and probably I will not get it worked today. Is there any way to watch online? I don't watch matches online generally.

I feel you bud.
Here, Chennai Super Kings won the toss and elected to field.

I will find a link for you and update this post soon.

Edit:

Enjoy the match.

Guys, IPL starts in around an hour.

Chennai Super Kings is going to take on Royal Challengers Bangalore in Chennai.

Here is the head to head of last all matches in between these two teams.

Notice the latest three matches were really close.

Lol. What? Cricket is one of the most famous international sports in the world. You need to improve your knowledge regarding Cricket buddy. For example:

https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/what-are-the-most-popular-sports-in-the-world.html

Not really famous out of India? Lol. Cricket is famous among many countries around the world like India, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa etc and don't judge this amazing sport due to the low interest for it in this forum.

I think in this forum there are not many people who are cricket fans that is why we see the low interest. I completely on the same page like you. Cricket is one of the most playing sports after Football. It's not my word but the numbers published worldwide.

Quote

Cricket has a 2.5 billion person estimated global following, and its primary sphere of influence is in the United Kingdom and Commonwealth countries. The cradle of the sport was the 16th Century England and it was made a national sport in the 18th Century in the country. The sport is characterized by two teams of eleven players each, where each team attempts to score the most runs. The sport is overwhelmingly popular in former British colonies such as India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Australia.

Back to the pool thing, yes I realise now. This idea is dead because of no interested cricket fans. I may continue even if this is one person and also pay minerjones his escrow fees.

Sorry to hear that, you have worked in it well but the result is not what you expected. Probably you need to do something like a vote for interest first, ask who are willing to join the prediction pool. If there are many interest then you can start it but if there is less interest then you may change the event. Find the most favorite event first.

Cricket as a sport is not really that famous outside of India - if you really want to attract cricket fans then start from the dark websites that run match-fixing betting rings. Which won't happen as they prefer to stay anonymous - after all this is the country of Azharuddin.

Remember, innocent betting on cricket matches is a huge scene in India but that's limited to local pubs - Bitcointalk as a cryptoforum has not penetrated that deep into our society.

I did some pre input before from users in this topic: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.49895124

Including me there were 4 members interested but as we can see they lost interest I assume. No big deal. This is the last day and I will wait if anyone joins.

If I do not see anyone then I may open this pool free for everyone. The initial money I sent will work as a prize for the winners. I know it's too little but joining a free pool which has potential to win 40% of 0.005BTC would not be a bad thing, I guess :-)

I disagree.

It's not only in India but in Australia, England, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Sri Lanka if I am not wrong. I have no idea about Match fixing in Dark Web. Whatever I am doing here is for fun LOL not to make money at all :-)

There are many people like me who are interested in Cricket, but the number of people who are willing to bet on Cricket matches are far lower including me.

However, I am a big fan of the Indian Premier League and I will be following this thread closely. SRH is my favorite team overall. Lets see if a team like RCB wins the title for the first time this year.

My team is CSK and I hope they get the trophy again although seeing they are taking most of the trophies seems a bit boring :-P

I belive you are rather active in tennis thread here on the forum. Do you think we could organize some kind of Tennis pool for Grand Slams, or let's say whole clay season culminating with RG.

Yap, we can do that. I bet in tennis often and I love it.
This IPL one seems not creating much interest. I think it's the numbers. Not many people are interested in cricket.

I like the captaincy of Dhoni for CSK. He is the most cleaver captain I have ever seen. The reason for CSK to win 5 times is only his captaincy I think.

As always, he is the best captain. I saw how he utilized different player in different situation. But, CSK was also a good team with some good talents. You know players like Raina, FAF, Bravo can make difference. They always had the best bowling option too. However, I still have to admit that it's Dhoni who made CSK successful.

Yup I think that's the case. Generally I don't know quite much about cricket or IPL but I do love predicting and if it involved some major football league. I would definitely join without thinking twice.
I hope you get those numbers before the deadline.

Thanks for the feedback bud.

Guys, only around two days left. Join now!
