^^^Five of us on the forum that have revealed themselves, anyway

I think several more from past drops. Welcome to the drop-receiving club ralle14! Now I know Sportsbet has tens of thousands of players (just go to Live Casino to see the numbers of players online at any one time if you want to get an idea) so to have even 5 of us in one drop round (and in the past several more) has to mean that they do pay attention to our usernames in Chat.

I know I'm not as active in Clubtalk as before but I'm very sure they recognise some of us there, Slissy especially, who can NOT recognise him haha.

Well done boys (or girls). That was so awesome.

== Anyone who took the Black Friday special on 1 corner for Southampton: that's already won in 2 minutes haha. Easiest 0.5 mbtc for Saturday.

TOTALLY OFF TOPIC but since we're talking about the drops. I actually withdrew all 20 mbtc and sold it. It turned out to be about 1050 euros nett =D

So I spent exactly 999 euros of the prize money on a new laptop.


I have been putting it off for YEARS and my current laptop is having stuck keys and battery that lasts 15 mins, and since I spend 90% of my day working on it I think it's about time I did something about it... and yesterday Black Friday deals I saw something. NOT my dream laptop, and I've never bought anything other than low-end ASUS in 15 years, 3 laptops. But it comes with full warranties and service which I never got with my machines before. Probably overpriced but let me see what I've been missing out buying low-end machines

This one is 1kg, batteries supposedly last 14 hours, 1 hour to charge, and a massive upgrade over anything else I ever used, so let's see if it lives up to the hype of supposedly thin/light laptops.

I've never spent much on a laptop, certainly I never spent more than 200 euros (I can get good low-range ASUS machines back home for good prices as it's Asian and minus taxes) and they're all small and I never do anything much except type, read and docs/spreadsheets, etc... they totally suck at watching stuff or doing anything else like Photoshop but I thought, well, I deserve a treat =p Black Friday's deal of 300 euros off the actual price put this exactly in my budget.

Thanks Sportsbet

Awesome of all of you to win it! All the drops are so late for me I tried one night but couldn't do more, I hope next time they have some session for us who are in +8-+12 GMT timezones


I get a lot of freebets from clubtalk but the big big ones I don't remember hitting big a lot, but that's my fault for choosing small games previously.

You know what? I got a 1mbtc freebet from prediction prize last week and I went big. And lost immediately from last night because Cagliari drew. Actually I wondered which Friday game to bet on but it wouldn't have mattered because ALL the big teams I looked at last night ALL drew. Friday sucked for whoever chose that day to start any multibetting.

See here this is my fate

So that is five of us on the forum who managed to receive the bitcoin drops for the Black Friday event.
If my memory serves me correct, buwaytress, Slissy(not certain who this is on here but said he had an account) , Trofo and now ralle14 claimed the drops who are on the forums.
Icopress mentioned I believe on the Ann thread he received a notifications from sportsbet that it was dropped but he didn't claim it within the hour it was sitting in his account.

Same here, after several bitcoin drop promotions finally secured a prize for myself, and the experience was nerve-wracking. I confirmed the prize just within the last few minutes before the system took it away from my account and thankfully the support clutched it out for me as I gave them the confirmation in live chat. Can't believe I manage to win one tbh as I wasn't expecting much just like the previous drops, good thing I didn't gave up on checking back every now and then. 

TROFO my MAN so happy you got the drop too! I was busy doing work last night but I anyway got it 2 nights ago, very happy to see a merry brother also share in the love. It's been 3 drop events already and I was up a lot all day long for the previous two drops, but happy to finally snag myself one, and happy you got it too!


On that note, Rangers lost their first game without Gerrard at home 1-3. They've got an excellent manager to replace him, arguably even better credentials than Gerrard but it does make you wonder just what kind of spirit a manager instills in his team to take them unbeaten in a season.

Anyway, yeah I took this no-brainer too just because -- even though it's obvious he picked all of them as he used to play for them all! Guess we should be lucky he didn't actually pick Newcastle haha.

What a career though!

@boltz I love these kind of stories and can really appreciate the history behind them. Which team did you actually support though? Ended a scoreless draw so they're both losers I guess in last night's game!

@arallmuus: It was my last bullet but no, I generally start my martingale on 0.05 mbtc and only after 3- or 4-streaks, so my max bet is 25.6 mbtc on a 14-loss streak, which is still a shitload of money to lose for nothing trying to do 5 mbtc wager heh. I usually tell myself to stop at 0 but since it's la partage, I actually went on.

Busting is 100% why people drop out of Live Casino and I keep telling myself not to chase but sometimes the temptation is too much, especially when you think -- "hey, let me win a small portion of last night's sports losses on roulette. 16 streak is so unlikely, right?"

If my memory serves me, then I was able to realize my free bet only two or three times, since I always hunt for large odds. But the maximum coefficient that I was able to successfully predict was 1000x (except for the last unsuccessful match, since in that case I would have had a two-thousandfold coefficient).

By the way, I have another multi-bet on the way with a hundredfold coefficient, and only one game with Chelsea separates me (I really hope that Chelsea will beat the Red Devils, although I also hedged this bet).  

Just bragging a bit since I got the drop. Whohoo!!! That makes quite a few of us from the forum.

I had a feeling I will get a drop today while playing football with my buddies. To make things worse we were playing on underground turf where there is no cell reception so I could not check my account. Anyway the game finished and I am trying to check Sportsbet page without success. In the end I was lucky enough that money was on account when I got to the bar above ground. Already spent a small chunk of it since I had to buy beers for the team after getting a present like this

That was a nasty streak. Was that your last bullet though? Even if you start from 0.1 mbtc bet, that would have cost you 102 mbtc one the last bet. Well consider yourself luckt this time because this could have been a nightmare for you if it hits another black and I doubt that you will continue the run tomorrow if you had happened to lose this one


Ikr which is why I never use any martingale so far. I'd rather lose small amount for the day and stay at 5mbtc wager

---

Anyway, its still 33 players left for today

Guys , there is a nice game from my country live right now.

Dinamo - Craiova

Why is this a nice game ? Well...Dinamo is one of the most loved team from Romania in history and they're having one of the worst season ever and they didn't win since last 13 games in Liga 1. I do have a strong feeling that this game will end with Dinamo taking 3 points. Also Craiova 1948 has just promoted into Liga 1 after several years of fighting with the law for the name and trophies.

What's the limit on the last special? I saw the 2.00 special (over 0.5 goal in each EPL match) posted in the chat but I missed the opportunity as I lost track of time and came back late.  

I'm also thinking of the same thing, Spurs and Everton seem like a toss up, I could see Lazio sneaking away with a win but a draw is more likely to happen.

Another special is up, "Tottenham, Lazio, Rangers & Everton All To Win - 2 Mbtc Max Bet" @50. Odds are very juicy since you can't get better than @35 on that ticket otherwise. Still I am not thrilled about team selection. Rangers are slam dunk, Spurs and Everton have a chance but it will be though but I don't believe Lazio can win away to Napoli even on their best day.

Still I am taking it since I would kick myself if it ends up wining and I missed it

Yes I certainly did. But my wallet provider does not send them out as soon as I hit the send button.
They take their sweet time to send it off. So there is usually a 3-5 minute window until they actually do send it off to the btc address provided to them.
That's why they are free to send from I guess.
It shows as still pending in the confirmation box on the sportsbet.io site, so it definitely isn't fully confirmed yet before I actually get to start wagering with it.
Not even 1/6 confirmations, so this is a valid statement.

Amazing specials on Black Friday, hope to see many many more throughout the day! Meanwhile, I almost busted on Roulette... as  even doubled down when it hit zero, going for martingale on RED... and this is how I usually end up wasting my money when I already did 5mbtc wager.

Even after waiting for a 3/4 streak and martingaling, you can die very fast without limits. Of course, anyone hitting 20-24 that whole round would be walking away with loads... gambling huh!



Didn't you also remind me you can bet instantly with a pending deposit?

I am taking that all day long even if it is a small stake of only 0.5mbtc allowed as a max bet.
I just missed the Sotons getting atleast one corner by 1 minute waiting for my deposit of btc to come through.

Next special is up, Arsenal to win @2. Again immense value since you can't find odds over 1.5 for this ML anywhere else. Unfortunately 0.5 mBTC max bet still stands.

So I guess we will get a bunch of almost safe specials with solid odds and fixed max bet today. I hope there will be at least one big odds (over 20) special for those of us wanting to live dangerously

Don't forget Black Friday events are just kicking off with a special Behind the Bet on youtube which is in 3 hours from now.
So be sure to tune in for some freebet giveaways and the interview with Paul Gascoigne!
https://sportsbet.io/sports/soccer/news/behind-the-bet

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8ajJBqIIFY

I'll definitely be tuning in.

Max bet on the special seems to be only 0.5 mbtc so it's a done deal for me. Can't wait to see others coming!


That is so awesome man well done! I think Trofo also likes to share what happens with his freebets. I won 2 quite recently I believe both 1 mbtc but instead of making it easy on myself I also tried to make it big like all you famous players (and icopress looks like you are joining that crew now!!!).

I came close on one and not the other one, but I guess this makes me think you guys are all right, why bet on 2 or 3x when you can almost win much more and for sure if it his 19x like you, you'll feel so proud

Just wanted to write the same but you were faster. Hurry up guys and take the special, odds are not big but when you realize you need just 1 corner for the win then they have immense value. I don't even know where to find similar offer but I am sure odds for something like this are usually not over @1.2.

Now only problem is how to manage the bank, could be even better specials coming up but this one seems like free money and I am taking it. You have a bit more then one hour left for this one.

SB has several high value Specials today.
A new one every second hour and each Special are valid for 2 hours.

The first Special for the day was released a few minutes ago;

2.00 in odds on Southampton to get 1+ corner against Liverpool!

Guys, I hope I'll cheer you up with my screenshot ... as I finally got lucky and was able to realize one of my free bets. I confess I lost about $ 700 on hedging this multi bet, so the net profit is slightly less than in the screenshot, but nevertheless I'm happy. Not that I was a fan of Manchester United but I really had a hunch that they were going to win this Champions League round once they had bad luck in the Premier League.
