Lets mark all the favourites for this round. Obviously its Liverpool, Arsenal, Manchester City, Chelsea, West Ham for me. I would be picking 5 of them for sure. Ipswich was lucky on their last game but Im not sure if they could pull another stunt like that. So if these 5 ended up correct then all I gotta need is to pick 2 more winners for atleast 7/10 for $100
Ipswich Town FC would be the one which can ruin that perfect matchday pick if you look at their record.
In their last four matches they drew them all!
Didn't realize this until I actually was even bothered to look them up on the table because of this discussion with you guys on here.
And to be honest aswell, West Ham ain't that great so they just might have their fifth draw inrow this weekend too.

But focusing on the one prize amount firstly is a good strategy going into these predictor pools:
Going for the 7/10 is probably your best bet on how to approach this promotion.
If you can manage to get those first few matches correct then target getting the $100 per competition.
Then you will be well ahead of the rest who are entering into these which seem to be getting atleast over 100 participants in the last three having run.

But if Manchester City and Liverpool manage to get another draw again this week, then that strategy is upended and a dud.

Truth be told @ralle14 those matchups do look like great on paper and everyone will put the favorites to win.

https://sportsbet.io/sports/soccer/matches/future

So if it does play out that way, are you willing to split the grand prize with the other 100+ contestants in this predictor pool?
Of course in reality this will not happen, since we all know there will be atleast an upset and certainly a draw in atleast one or two of these matches.
That is the only guarantee in the life of us who place bets on these games.

I just checked next round's schedule and it looks like this time its going to be way easier with alot of favourites playing against non favourites team so yeah thats something that could help us atleast get 7/10 score
The matchups next round are geat on paper, lots of home favorites playing against weaker home teams, but still, we can't be sure when we have a round of Champions, Europa, and Conference League in a few days.

I still think there are a bunch of matches that could easily end in a draw or maybe that's me getting caught up with the recency bias after the past few rounds of unusual results.

I was 3 correct and 4 incorrect going into today. Took Ipswich and they got an early goal within the first 8 minutes of the match.
I guess you ended up with max 5 correct answers at this point? As for me, yeah I sucks and I dont wanna remember anything about this round. So lets just skip it until next week LOL  Roll Eyes
No, I had 0 correct today so I will probably end up with three which is not even worth it to mention about and I don't expect nor care what happens in tomorrow's sole match in the EPL between Southampton vs A.F.C. Bournemouth.
All because I hate both these teams but most noteable I don't have any skin in this game namingly any stakes.
LOL its a rough week and I have been using btc for my buy-in for the last 2 weeks, it ended up pretty bad lol. Bournemouth won and I had draw on this game, not that it really matters because Im not winning anything

Had that idiotic team to win because Southampton is worse looking so far compared to newly promoted teams such as Ipswich Town and even Nottingham/Brentford are better than them.
So after that Bournemouth win had 4 wins which got me nothing for the first time since this promotion began from before the season started for the EPL.

After getting the first three matches of this competition your chances do not look so good at getting a prize by the end of it.

I don't know why people would drop off from jackpot competition it has insane ROI. At least for me getting 6 correct and money back bet is almost a guarantee and often it is a bit more. And I don't think I am particularly good at it. Never got 9 correct or 10, but I get 7 on regular basis and I have seen 8 few times last season.
Last 5, i have 3x20$ and 2X100$.

Ikr, I personally have gotten decent profit from this jackpot. Even if I had to lose all remaining rounds until the end of the season, Im still left with some profit overall so thats pretty good

I know I am playing them until they drop the competition or change the rules

Speaking of rules change, Im quite sure that the top prize used to be $20k (?) but now its $10k. Its still alot though but yeah I guess someone won or probably Im daydreaming

Yes @Trofo
Completely agree with what you just said about these Jackpot competitions which has been running a couple of months now.

Had the worst start for yesterday as I would imagine everybody else did since Manchester City had a draw 1-1 for the very first match of it.
I was 3 correct and 4 incorrect going into today. Took Ipswich and they got an early goal within the first 8 minutes of the match.
So the best result I could have if I get this one, the later match today and tomorrow would be my entry fee back.

Had a good result this weekend overall not including this one with hitting my UFC Paris acca of @17.75x with a decent wagered amount on it so have enough to place a big parlay for the NFL matches today.

Will be posting it just before the matches begin so not to jinx it since once again, it has a decent staked amount attached to it.

Both threads are below if anyone would like to view the results of these parlays later on:

Yes I agree there arallmuus, the interest had dropped off.
I entered mine early in the week and noticed this aswell. I was 62th to join in I believe so that is around half that entered in the week prior.
So what ralle14 had said above is probably valid since this week's is a tough one to predict so people are taking a breather from it and spending it on other matches.

Total of 104 players in the end. Its still alot

Anyway this could be my shittiest round ever. So far I only have 2 correct answers, going to be 3 if Liverpool wins but it still shits. Total of max 6 if the other 3 predictions ended up winning so yeah that pretty sucks

I was actually happy when I opened flashscore because I thought I would get atleast 5 by now but damn, I didnt even notice how my predictions were this sucks  Roll Eyes

But an overall good day to bet on mid-week football for those who needed a team to place a bet on to add to their betslips.
Had a few bets on Europa League, 6 in total and won 5 of them so overall pretty good mid-week for me

Anyway, I submitted my jackpot prediction and you know what we only had 66 players participating. I was the 67th people that submitted lol and probably we would have around 80ish players by tomorrow. Most people probably lost interest after losing for the last 2 rounds, not gonna lie the last 2 rounds actually had quite alot unexpected results

Here is my bet for this EPL done from a freebet credited to my account for placing bets earlier in the week:


Next match is coming up shortly with Manchester City vs Newcastle.
Expect the blues to smash today so have them with an over 3.5 goals across all my parlays.

Good luck to you guys. I'm also sitting this round out as the trend of draws and upsets could continue and I don't have the same confidence in most of my picks if I do decide to participate.

I'll probably hop back next week or the week after, i'd better take a break when it's needed and the jackpot will always be there anyway.

@danherbias07
Took a chance on Atlanta last night with an upset against the New York Liberty but that fell flat near the end of the game. At the beginning they were up 11-3 and up 48-43 at the half but couldn't hold that pace for the entire match.
So this was first round of the play-offs in their league?
If it was then the energy was there and the odds were definitely in the Liberty's favor at the start.
Missed the later game in the other series because had a bet placed in another sport and ended up watching that instead.

EFL had some matches yesterday and some of the teams who are in the Premier league had struggled.
But an overall good day to bet on mid-week football for those who needed a team to place a bet on to add to their betslips.

No, I took the favorites for the last match and they ended in a draw with the very last play of the match from a corner.
What a devasting feeling towards the gunners who had lead at the end of the second half and then conceding in the last few seconds left of the match.
All Arsenal fans feel this one as a loss even if they had it end in a draw.

Ahh noted so you are only 'wild' when it comes to Superbru huh. I used to check your predictions on Superbru and most of the times, you always had that wild score predictions or even upsets prediction so I thought this applied to all of your predicting/betting patten as well

All Arsenal fans feel this one as a loss even if they had it end in a draw.

Arsenals were defending all the way since 2nd half and it was literally the last minute. They could have gotten 3 points but shit happened indeed

So my record for this EPL competition was 5/10 so the worst outcome for this promotion so far.

Atleast 50% were back

Connecticut Sun just showed the Indiana Fever why they are one of the strongest teams in the WNBA league. They blew out the Fever 93-69 and stopped Caitlin Clark at just 11 points, 8 assists, and 4 rebounds in Game 1, Round 1 of the WNBA playoffs. The stats are still amazing even with a heavy defense on her.

Later, we have 2 games listed.

https://sportsbet.io/sports/basketball/usa/wnba/matches

That first playoff game of Caitlin Clark also made a lot of her fans angry with the WNBA management for starting it during the Sunday Night NFL. They say they could've used another day to maximize Clark's and the WNBA's exposure.
I agree. The WNBA badly need that exposure and they made a big mistake in time management here.

How much did he manage to get, because the individual freebets were part of a pool amount correct?
He only mentioned it was a small free bet.

All Arsenal fans feel this one as a loss even if they had it end in a draw.
Arsenal had a solid hold in the second half ruining our last prediction. When I checked the second half stats, Man City was in full control while Arsenal was in defensive mode and it's unfortunate they only got one goal in the end.

Five matches ending in a draw this week is unreal, some of those matches should've been a win, but they failed to make the most out of their advantage.

Got to go with my gut feeling instead of going with the favorites for next week.

So Slissy received a free bet during this weekend promotion?

So did anyone got any free bets drop?
Still no free bets on my account, I heard Slissy received one the other day.

Brighton spoiled our predictions again with another draw at home, I had high hopes in the final ten minutes when that red card came in.

We all need Man City to deliver in the final match, i'd be happy to get 6/4 and get my entry fee back.

Its a draw and for some reason it put a bit of smile on my face

I had Arsenal to win so yeah if they ended up winning then that would be sucks so this draw is kinda like a blessing for me atleast. In the end I got 4/10, this is the 2nd time that I dont receive anything from the jackpot round. Just gotta do better in the next round I guess, kinda sucks but yeah tons of unexpected results are going to happen in the upcoming rounds as well

Had 4/4 going into today but switched my picks from Brighton to Nottingham and when I left it was 2-2 with Forest a man down if I heard correctly just finishing up.
So with the last match the best I can do is get $10 usd / the worst I have fared in this competition since it began.

I bet you got the last game as draw right? given your pattern, I think you would have pick the draw on City - Arsenal
