Glad to be first here, Multi Master is BACK and it's Super Bowl with 1.01 odds selection for each, but the big prize is 3 BTC
Is there any point in posting our predictions here for this week? It is one game so there is no rivalry and anticipation. It is also very different from usual MM we are playing so I am not sure we want to include it in our table. There is also a big possibility that a lot of regulars will not even play it since they have no clue about NFL. That being said I have no clue but I am going to play it anyway.

When I make the ticket I will edit this post with the link in case we decide to include it in the table.

I was actually about to looking out for NFL SuperBowl predictions as I don't know anything about NFL games. I am sure there are many more in the dark doing some ^research^ about it or flipping coins  Cheesy but I think its alright with posting these predictions, I know we have been posting football MM predictions for some time now but lets not forget that we made this to post our MM predictions and help each others out. Still not a round to add to the table but its upto tyKiwanuka.

Glad to be first here, Multi Master is BACK and it's Super Bowl with 1.01 odds selection for each, but the big prize is 3 BTC -- I have very little knowledge about American football but I'm seeing some terrific outcomes like No Touchdowns and Tie in scoring halves, very tempting to pick but I stayed away. Loads of consolation prizes too cash and freebets, so I don't mind a punt (no pun intended).

Edited: removed my picks, hey hey.

Today I just check my streak of 8 correct picks is going on for third time in a row which is not good for me as I need some better results from myself but its really poor judgment as unable to handle few things hopefully in coming weeks this could be improved because its much needed improvement for better results.

3 times in a row 8 is awesome! I have also been doing quite well I think but personally,,, I think winners usually have a lot of bad weeks and then 1 good week since they seem to take more risks than others just to get a hit on an unusual week (like what we just saw). Newcastle winning apparently was made my less than 1% in prediction pools, and it was not that huge of an upset.

Congrats to our local champions,,, I thought I was doing well also, and I was right to make 3 draw predictions, but only wrong for making 1 of them wrong. I think at least 3 draws in each MM is a good tactic. I agree with Trofo also,,, if you bet on heavy underdog you miss 1 from 99% of other people who pick it, you have to be smart and pick the "slight underdog" OR pick it to be a draw at the minimum.

How in the world did that guy get Leeds AND Lazio right ?

Yeah as always, there are someone thats either very lucky with those crazy picks then ended up getting the correct results. I totally can get if someone picked Lazio to win but Leeds and Lazio on the same slip parlay is totally weird but oh well atleast this works for them and they won 150 mbtc  Tongue

Wouldn't be surprised if we have a 15/15 winner very soon.

Its kinda feel like its getting close each week. By the time someone actually hit 15/15, I hope it will be someone from this thread or atleast from bitcointalk instead of some random player on sportsbet  Tongue

Thanks for your confidence in me haha. I honestly though if Hoffenheim hit

A heavy Favourites like Bayern Munich that dominates the league against Underdog wouldnt work somehow though but you made a good call on Newcastle

@leea @Trofo You're right, actually, both of you. I had an MM where the 3 biggest upsets all hit, but I still didn't win it because I actually didn't make enough draws. I think it's ok to go for all favourites, and then pick 3/4 of the ones you think the slight underdog might win or force a draw, but deep down, I'm also thinking I might go for a 15/15 anyway and win it big. Feels like a better chance than the lotteries I also play, the gambler in me always convinces myself it'll be my day soon...

I honestly though if Hoffenheim hit, I'm definitely taking something home as well, but yeah, even being the "only one" picking those 2 away upsets didn't do me any good in the end. I did only pick a selection of upsets, but it was really the Arsenal draw and Hoffenheim bad pick that killed me, I should have switched Lazio for Hoffenheim though, I mean, I actually bet on them a lot last season but they've really fallen away this one.
I don't think picking such heavy outsiders is good tactic for MM. That Bayern vs. Hoff game with odd like that you are almost sure that you are among very few that picked the upset. So if you get it right great but if you miss 99% of other players have one more correct than you. And problem with those guys picking huge upsets is that they always pick more than one Smiley So let's say you pick 3 big upsets and get one correct which is generous you still end up behind almost the whole pack.

MM is won or lost on those games where favorite is around 1.8 odds. In other words games where good chunk of the players will go for favorite but the odds of not loosing for underdog are actually more likely to hit.

Sorry it didn't work out for our heroes of 10 picks, whoever it was who got 11/12 is a damn bastard for getting Leeds and Lazio right!

Things are shaping up a bit and after buwaytress' good start this week, I thought he might end the drought and win again after gazillions of tries, but Hoffenheim beating Bayern was too much to ask for - although you did great with getting Newcastle and Leeds right Grin And if this happens....

15/15 will happen. But the odds, as you can see from the winning picks are massive! millions to 1 =)

Yup, shame for us from BTT, I could almost smell it. But the next chance is coming on Friday again Grin
Getting 12 games right in such a round is worthy of the prize.

I still would be super interested to know the total number of participants per week (Steve ? Grin)

Yup, this would be a great info to have. At least a rough estimate, so we can gauge whether it's 100, 500 or 2000+.

I don't want to crush your dreams guys but there is someone with 10 correct selections now in MultiMaster leaderboard on Sportsbet website, not counting West Ham vs Liverpool match, and it's not anyone from fellow bitcointalkers.
Bad run for me this time with only 4 corrects picks so far  Cry
Yup, he must have gotten both the Leeds and Lazio results right. Fair play to the guy, these are 2 big upsets. If he had Liverpool as well it's game over for the rest of us because I assume we all have Barcelona.

If he did not have Liverpool, it will all come down to the Tottenham game. I hope somebody from BTT will still be in the hunt then.

How in the world did that guy get Leeds AND Lazio right ? Tongue Getting 11+ in this MM correct is huge, because as you can see by our average and all the red, the favourites were struggling quite a lot.
Last weeks hero arallmuus had a nightmare this week as did the often so solid Avirunes, but doesn't matter if you hit 4 or 10 in the end, if there is one guy with 11+. What remains is another round of disappointment on a Sunday evening and the hope for better luck next weekend.

Was wondering the same thing seeing 9 change to 11 after those matches concluded.
Who picks leeds and lazio on the same betslip against heavy home favorites? Embarrassed

While watching the final two games I was thinking to myself, the winner for this multimasters competition will get 13 correct selections with Barcelona & Tottenham remaining. And as we all know Brighton won (so scrape that notion).
But which seemed like almost an ace since we do only see the leaders winning with only needing either 11 or 12 right in the past.

....I think it will be him; certainly not me^^ But I don't think we will see a 15/15 very soon tbh, not in 2021 is my call, at least in a 3-way MM.

^^ Guess it is getting tougher and tougher with each round. Wouldn't be surprised if we have a 15/15 winner very soon. This goes to show how stiff is competition now and sportsbet gaining popularity  Cheesy.

I am also on the same page with you @notblox1 with only 4 picks , so I am already waiting for the next one. Tongue

It's not looking good for our leaders, Leicester going 1-1 and Atalanta already down 0-1.

Jayce's draw on Atalanta seems likely to hit if Lazio doesn't score anymore, we'll see how it goes on the second half.
Now things more worst Atlanta vs Lazio  1 - 3 and Leicester vs Leeds 1 - 3 mean both home teams going down very few minutes remaining.

Our 3 leaders

Its very rare to see 3 bitcointalk players on top of the leaderboard in sportsbet.io. Most of the time there will be only one lone survivor left from bitcointalk . Well best of luck to the 3 remaining guys that still stand on top and for those that still has decent chance to win

Well atleast the leaderboard now looks better because it is pretty disgusting when there are 3 people that scored 8 correct picks then another weirdo player on sportsbets scored 9 correct picks

Wow, didn't even know I was good until I saw it here. I usually just do the Multimasters and don't really follow the results.

This is one of the nice perk of joining this thread. Instead of checking your results in the site, Tyki will compile everything here for us Tongue

I either wrote it wrong or you copied it wrong, I have Liverpool to win against West Ham. Meaning that Inagame and me either win together or die together Grin

EDIT: I went to check, I wrote it wrong in the thread - sorry about that. I've got Liverpool on Sportsbet.
