Thanks for the additional 5 mbtc. Sounds great with the additional prize of Southampton jerseys. With Arsenal performing so bad would love to have it and wear while cheering Southampton. Saints are performing so well out there- Prowse (free-kick specialist) , Danny Ings, Adams, Walcott , Vestergaard , Armstrong....uff they all are playing crazy.

Their best PL finish was in 15/16 season with 6th rank under Ronald Koeman. Right now they are fourth. #SportsbetSponsorEffect  Cheesy Grin Cool
Steve and co are an awesome group to have hosting these promotions right? Wink

I'd love to get a brand new southampton's shirt especially with the sportsbet.io logo and the BTC symbol to top it all off! Grin

@sportsbet.io, Steve and co Don't know what to say, except you guys are bloody awesome. Almost $100 in freebets just for participating, and the prize money, definitely a nice Christmas gift however else this turns out! Really big of you guys to bump us all up too!
Liverpool meet Leipzig so I already know my EPL/UCL parlay =D
Yeah they sure know how to treat their players and that's why I'm almost to the gold vip tier with them for the 5th time in a row. 6th coming up soon!

Here are our chances to get on top of the leaderboard for this last one with the 100mbtc prize attached to it then I guess that will be it for the season since EPL will more than likely go off for the Christmas vacation and New Years break. Cool


Enjoy the bonuses gentlemen! Smiley

Well done to everyone, especially I have to say Avirunes for getting top prize AND the sidebet too. I thought I would do quite well at first too, especially for catching the correct draw for Manchester derby but my own team let me down;)

Good luck to everyone for the last one of the year,,, and especially big thank you to Sportsbet for making football great:)

As a poker player I would say the correct distributions would be that the two guys in 1st place shared the 1st and 2nd prize money= 40 mbtc each, and the guy in 2nd place receive the 3rd price money=20 mbtc.

That said, the whole point of this promo (from the bookmakers POV) is to create enthusiasm and action from the players in this thread, so by adding more winners, and instead eating some short-term losses in form of freebets/cash, they reach their goal more effectively.
Sportsbet being generous as always by adding even more cash and freebies to a promo that bring them cents on the dollar short-term.

Would like to see this promo running weekly throughout 2021  Tongue

by all calculations of last week, yes that is correct. But with Rdbase a clear 2nd us having 3-4 3rd places, I wanted to bump up the 3rd place players with the coinage as it was such a crazy round Smiley

I just cross-checked tyKiwanuka's final table for this round with rdbase picks, he has 7, not 8, i think you've made a mistake there.  2x 1 places and 4x 4th (or 3rd...however you wanna call it) places.


Hey Steve, can we get more matches from Serie A come next MM, pretty please!? Cry Cheesy ...oh and congrats to all the winners from this past week, well done boys!


Will pass the feedback on for the Serie A

For a moment I thought the prizes was mistakenly credited until I saw steve's post. Thank you for bumping up the prizes even more plus the free bet.  Cheesy

Looking forward to the final week I wouldn't mind taking another 4-5 way tie.   Wink

From the general consensus I read above, looks like the 100 mbtc is to be split 50/30/20..

Joint finishing places, ie dead heats, lets talk about on Monday. but for now.. good luck!
So from the pool winners we have the split of prizes once again.
First prize is split between the ones who had 9 correct this week.

1st place w/9 correct picks: tomahawk9, Avirunes each receive 35mbtc as the 50mbtc was tied. checked a bit of juice on., plus 5mbtc free bet each
2nd place w/8 correct picks: -rdbase for 2nd place outright  30mbtc  plus 5mbtc free bet.
3rd place(s) w/7 correct picks:  ralle14, buwaytress, Trofo,   15,15,15.mbtc plus 5mbtc free bet each.

I don't understand this calculation Grin And I am not questioning the rules (up to SB/rdbase) nor do I claim to have any say in this, I am just wondering and think this should be clear for next week^^ It's super nice that SB sponsors these Xmas bonuses and is even paying out more than announced Shocked Makes this whole thing way more fun and increases the chances to get some BTC for us mediocre tipsters.

With my understanding, tomahawk9 and Avirunes should have gotten more, no ? The juice and freebets aside and having this 50/30/20 in mind, these two should have gotten 40mBTC each, since they share 1st and 2nd place (50+30mBTC). And then we have a 4-user-tie in 3rd place, where the 20mBTC would get shared.
It was the same last week, when we had 3 users at the top and they shared the 100mBTC amongst them; 33.34mBTC each.

It's the same in sports with the dead heat. If two athletes finish in first place, there is no second place then, but the next place is third. With the above calculation, it would theroretically be possible, that a user with fewer correct picks gets more mBTC, like:

9 correct picks: 5 users -> 10mBTC each
8 correct picks: 1 user -> 30mBTC

Do I miss something here ?

Hi,

no, you didn't miss anything here Smiley all good.

by all calculations of last week, yes that is correct. But with Rdbase a clear 2nd us having 3-4 3rd places, I wanted to bump up the 3rd place players with the coinage as it was such a crazy round Smiley

being a dead heat for 1st, i figured 35+5 would be a fair 1st place, but as last week we were on some other calculation, I have boosted tomahawk9, Avirunes up another 5mbtc cash to meet up with the coin calculation from last week.|
Others keep the rewards.

I think everything is even now with a few bonuses for 3rd places? as for next week..

Ill need to check with the boss, but for the 3rd week (next MM) , and last big run before xmas, maybe we can pay out 50/30/20 for all who finish 1,2,3.. but ill get back to you soon.

Hi guys,

I have just paid out the following for the Multi master Xmas bonus from last week.

1st place w/9 correct picks: tomahawk9, Avirunes each receive 35mbtc as the 50mbtc was tied. checked a bit of juice on., plus 5mbtc free bet each
2nd place w/8 correct picks: -rdbase for 2nd place outright  30mbtc  plus 5mbtc free bet.
3rd place(s) w/7 correct picks:  ralle14, buwaytress, Trofo,   15,15,15.mbtc plus 5mbtc free bet each.

now "entebah" came 3rd, but i think was a late entry into this little comp.. so for now, paid a 5mbtc free bet, but if you guys are fine with him coming late, ill then pay out the 4th 3rd place prize of 15mbtc.

have good day guys, some seriously big games in Football this week!!  selections are a absolute nightmare.. will need a few beers to get my head around the fixtures!

regards,

Steve.

Congratulations to tomahawk9 and Avirunes for sharing the 1st place on our internal MM this week. Also, great job Avirunes in predicting the correct number of goals in tyKiwanuka's side game. Wink

I have also had some Southampton shirts come across my desk and Im happy to put them up as some prizes for this week's Football action. If you guys want to work out a promo, im happy to supply 3 or so brand new shirt as prizes.

Ohhh, additional goodies for us. We can really feel the holiday season here because of these gifts from SB. Maybe we can have another round of tyKiwanuka's side game and make those shirts as prizes to the winners. What do you guys think?
Sounds like a very good plan indeed! Wink
Especially when southampton are doing very well in the premier and are in a solid position to whoop the rest of the teams they face coming into the Christmas break.
As for this week's prizes I have followed up with steve and they should be sent off to you guys today.
Congratulations to all who participated and you will be happy with the results! Grin
The late comer to the party who I mentioned right under their submission when they posted it, will more than likely get a free bet for this time around because we had a consensus on at what point those who join would receive a prize from the pool of dedicated participants. But they will be eligible for the next round this weekend.

Get your picks nice and early this round gentlemen! Cool

Wait you have two? I only have one and I chose away shirt, it was from sportsbet poker 1 btc freeroll. Ironically, I received it on early October iirc and Watford was already relegated lol
I actually have one old Watford home shirt without Sportsbet logo which I bought when I was in England some time ago. Then I won that shirt on the poker promo and that one never arrived  Angry Then I got another one (away shirt) from some promo on Sportsbet site which arrived without problems  Grin I am actually due one more for participation in the Sportsbet Premier league pool to finish my Watford collection.

Thanks a lot everyone. Really glad that won two prizes in this round. Regarding tyKiwanuka's side event I was thinking of taking 38 or 39 but saw buwaytress and tomahawk9 already taking those so went ahead with little lower and went for 37.

If only they didnt take that yet, I would have take 37. I was pretty sure that either 37 or 38 gonna hit and decided to go with 37 instead but chose 36 because you took it. That 1 goal from burnley sucks, if it ended with a draw it would have hit 36  Tongue Too bad but congratulations

Maybe we can have another round of tyKiwanuka's side game and make those shirts as prizes to the winners. What do you guys think?

Lets do this. There are 3 shirts and we can to run it for 3 weeks to get 3 winners

I already have home and away Watford T-shirts it is time to get a Southampton one as well Smiley

Sounds like nice and simple solution. I like that idea. If somebody does not  feel comfortable sharing his/hers address with Sportsbet they should just skip from that part of competition.

Gotta say, this was a tough, tough round, as shown by the winner of having 11 picks. Liverpool wrecked me to the core, a little disappointed but at least my 2 ragequit bets before I went to bed hit... sorry for Arsenal... too bad I couldn't change my MM picks or I'd have had 9 haha.
You at least got those rage quit bets going in right direction, I lost them as well Smiley I had PSG both to score and they could not score even one goal. What happened with Neymar I read something about him crying loudly while being taken of the pitch. Hope it is nothing serious.

Congrats Avirunes, really good result in this tough to predict week.
