JanpriX and Avirunes have won the internal Bitcointalk MM and share the prize of 100 fame points:


Thanks for the fame points.  Grin We should create some tokens that could be awarded for the internal Bitcointalk MM winners. That would be bonkers even if it doesn't have any value.

Argh, sharing that prize pool with the other top pickers is so close yet so far away. Missed the top spot with just 1 point only.

I have reached my personal highlight in being the only one to get Roma draw right - something JanpriX and buwaytress managed to do with Frankfurt/Leicester as well. Other than that not much to brag about, since I don't think 9 correct ones is enough for some prize. We went 2/3 with the picks we found consensus on (and Bayern losing getting humiliated by Hoffenheim was really a surprise Grin).

That Roma-Juve game is the one I am most pissed about. That game just screamed draw to my gut but I decided to go with Juve since Roma was bad in first game on the pitch and even fumbled with the registration of the player which resulted with them losing even that point. I thought that means big problems at the Roma and Juve should be able to exploit it. Had to go with gut feeling, from now on only that in MM for me.

Bayern, City and Chelsea games did not hurt us much since 99.9% of the players missed those and those remaing probably picked a shitload of surprises and ended with 5 or 6 points as our very own buwaytress Smiley Sorry man had to do it since you took Brighton, WBA and Leicster on same ticket.

Frankfurt match was the one that collectively destroyed our chances and we should have done better at that one.

Bayern looks like they are going to lose their match against Hoffenheim. Embarrassed
Right before the match I was looking at the odds and they were 9.60x odds to win the game as Bayern had 1.23x odds.

The rest of the matches left to play are either gonna make or break the winner of this week's competition.
The top three look to be safe before the next four start:
Manchester city
Fenerbahce
Juventus
Barcelona
Those were my selections on straight wins. But they are pointless since I was out at the start of matches done today. Undecided

With Athletico Bilbao winning against Eibar i'm out once again but at the same time that could be the crucial pick for JanpriX to tie with those three tied for first place. Best of luck on the remaining games.

I actually had Cheslea on my freebet to walk away with something this weekend.
Well me too. I had it on both of my freebets. It wasn't a hard match for Chelsea. Its just the mistake from defences made them lose those easy points and settle for only one. Nobody expected such outcome in that match. Werner was also unlucky since he was about to score first goal for Chelsea but it hit the cross bar.
Same, I feel dumb for taking Chelsea yesterday thinking it was the easiest match and they're the last leg in one of my free bet. During the second half it looked like they're about to pull a comeback but unfortunately there wasn't enough time.

Good stuff JanpriX you really hit it well with that first pick, seems like a good weekend for most people. I suspect those with 7 picks now probably got the Chelsea draw right on the head. Only way I can catch up is if the favourites trip up at Roma and against Leicester but even so, that's just 2 picks so good luck to you boys!

And Hoffenheim's now got 2 against Munich, what was I saying again about early season woes? But hey, we all got to go and bet on Bayern haha.

Nope Cheesy
I actually had Cheslea on my freebet to walk away with something this weekend. But as steve said to me while it was still going on with them(WBA) ahead 3-2: the sportsbookies (All of them!) made out with alot because everyone and their mama's bet on a Chelsea win. Sad
With a draw every bet I had including this one which would of had me in contention with the others on the leaderboard.
Congratulations to JanpriX with making it with the others up there.
Three in the top are with seven correctly predicted. So they must of had one of the draws (Lepzig or Chelsea) wrong only because they had one out of the eight played wrong since Eibar was postponed until tomorrow.

JanpriX is leading the pack with that good call on Frankfurt



That super late goal from ManU killed me - if it stayed X, I would have had some slim hopes to still be in the mix. I definitely need that X in Roma vs Juve tomorrow, if there is any hope left. But I guess the leader right now has already 7 Roll Eyes Maybe someone can check later and post here.

That result from Chelsea and how it unfolded was brutal for rdbase, big_daddy and buwaytress. Hope you made at least some money by betting on WBA and then hedging at 3-0 Wink

JanpriX! Well done! I have to admit, picking Hertha was more of sentiment, they won me quite a few games last season, whereas Frankfurt did NOT! Frankfurt were the slight favourites too, so I guess a lot of people went for that outside of this crazy group. Also noticed you didn't do any draws in your selections. Well done, proud of you=p

Rest of the picks so far, well. United and Watford won us through! Live another day.

So that's the lot of us, #pray4buway died on the first leg.

In all fairness to tyKiwanuka I don't think anyone in all of the multimasters site-wide selected Frankfurt to win that game.
But as he had said they are not consistent in their form at all.
But there is still along way to go since Arsenal's game is on Monday so have to wait more than just the weekend to find out who wins with 14 games. Cheesy

By the way, i found a small miscue within your table, you've marked big_daddy's Watford-Luton prediction as a 2, but has Watford to win.

Yep corrected, thanks, was just a test, if you are all attentive Wink To my defense: He had a different order than I have for the table and I always struggle then Cheesy

I mean is there anything worse than getting the very first match wrong?

Always super annoying. And I am sure there is at least one user who had Frankfurt und the rest of his 14 picks exactly the same as me and thus I am already out^^ This huge win from Berlin in Bremen in round 1 was probably a bit misleading.....Bremen is just poor and they are doing really bad at home for ages already. Hertha was shitty in test matches and in the cup game - I thought this Bremen win maybe was the turnaround for them, but nope. Frankfurt has the better team all in all and Hertha has always been a messy club (they can only play Basketball and Icehockey there properly.......and Waterpolo).

Suprised to see no one picking Frankfurt for tonight and we even only have one X, the rest home win. I picked home win as well, but not tooooooo sure with that one Cheesy

Why did you have to jinx it like that?  Cheesy  buwaytress' 453+ BTC ticket is no longer a thing.  Cry

As i said earlier i'm the only one backing Watford to lose points tomorrow. Luton, please don't embarrass me in front of everybody! Lol

edit; Sarr is in the starting lineup and Deeney on the bench, so much for Luton and my prediction

It seems Toma has better chance than all of us in Hertha vs Frankfurt match. Frankfurt are leading by two goals now. I am not watching the match, in fact I do not watch any other league except EPL. Coming back from 2 - 0 down is very hard. This may cause them to concede more goals since they will try to attach more to come back in the match.

Consensus only found with 3 games, which I highlighted. tomahawk9 and buwaytress spoiled the party a bit to make it 7 (ManCity, Hertha, Barca, Real). Suprised to see no one picking Frankfurt for tonight and we even only have one X, the rest home win. I picked home win as well, but not tooooooo sure with that one Cheesy

Thanks for providing with this MM table. It really gives another dimension to this great promo. Especially since it is PITA to check your results on SB if you have a lot of tickets. Come Sunday I lose half an hour scrolling to find my picks Smiley

I see Hertha as a team which always does surprisingly well in the beginning of the season and then they gradually drop off. If I am not mistaken this was the case last two season. Frankfurt was quite bad at the end of last season, especially in Europe. So those two "facts" + you picking Hertha was enough for me to chose home win.

The rest of the games have all outcomes picked at least once apart from the Chelsea game, where the draw is missing. I did a quick check, if any 2 users have the exact same picks, but doesn't look like that, which is kind of amazing. As always good luck ladies and gentlemen Smiley

The only weird pick I have is the draw on Eibar, I feel like the first match could go in the way of Frankfurt after seeing so many visiting teams dismantle the home teams last week. Also I was thinking of taking the Draw or even Brighton to win since they looked good after losing against Chelsea but still went with Man United as the home advantage have less impact.

Hertha BSC - Eintracht Frankfurt
Eibar - Athletic Bilbao (Draw)
Brighton & Hove Albion - Manchester United
Bayer 04 Leverkusen - RB Leipzig
Watford - Luton Town
West Bromwich Albion - Chelsea
Inter - Fiorentina
Burnley - Southampton
Real Betis - Real Madrid
Napoli - Genoa
1899 Hoffenheim - Bayern München
Manchester City - Leicester City
Galatasaray - Fenerbahçe
Roma - Juventus
Barcelona - Villarreal

Hertha is the first match to be played in this weeks multimaster in a little over 1.5 hours from now.

Everyone has them on their picks to win. So let's all hope they put us a +! going into the weekend's matches! Wink
It's always a good feeling getting that first match under your belt after all. Grin
But then we need to worry about the Eibar match as it had been postponed until Sunday they had it scheduled in the multimasters for today. Undecided

I can't believe i'm the only going against Watford in this round. They kind of sucked against Boro' despite winning, equalized in the 90th min against Oxford (carabao cup), lucky they didn't get a couple of goals in the first half against Sheffield Wed and got eliminated midweek by a League two team (Newport)...not a great start of the season imo. I wanted to go with Luton to win, but since everyone's taking Watford here, even bookies have them @1.50, i had to go with a draw instead. If Luton wins, i will take it as a moral victory  Cheesy

Interesting to point out is that we don't have French matches for some reason, not that i'm complaining, i'd prefer Serie A or EPL over Ligue 1, anyway here's my picks:

Hertha BSC - Eintracht Frankfurt
Eibar - Athletic Bilbao draw
Brighton & Hove Albion - Manchester United draw
Bayer 04 Leverkusen - RB Leipzig
Watford - Luton Town draw
West Bromwich Albion - Chelsea
Inter - Fiorentina
Burnley - Southampton
Real Betis - Real Madrid
Napoli - Genoa
1899 Hoffenheim - Bayern München
Manchester City - Leicester City
Galatasaray - Fenerbahçe
Roma - Juventus
Barcelona - Villarreal
