Slava Ukraini!
Ulven is currently leading this matchday with 11 points. there are still two games left today and i strongly suspect that Ulven is predicting a 1-1 in each of them as well Grin Cool


And it really happened - he went with 1:1 in all games this round. After all, it didn't helped him much as he dropped by 1 place. It would be interesting to hear something about from @Ulven himself, what his plan was. If I would go with same pick in all games, I doubt that I would go with 1:1 score.
Congrats to @casperBGD with yellow cap!

casperBGD was able to secure the matchday win today with the maximum number of points in the two sunday games with 18 points ahead of darxiaomi (17 points) and thus win a free bet on sportsbet.io
congratulations - i forwarded your username straight away  Smiley
we now also have a new leader in the table, as casperBGD was able to push morvillz7z into second place - in any case, it remains very exciting

Impressive result. Not the hightest score among rounds but 5 games were guessed correctly and 3 of them were the exact score. Wow... how much of a difference this makes! I see that Hhampuz guessed 6 results but earned 5 points less due to the fact that he did not guess the exact score anywhere. I also guessed 5 results but received almost half as many points since I was far from the exact score  Undecided

Right, right, and that's what I'm afraid of at the moment. I don't want to tumble down from the heights I've climbed through such hard efforts. What I want is climbing further up, and, I can't believe it myself, but I did manage to make that one step up recently Smiley

Yeah and I'm falling down once more with that Union crap haha. We all deserve where we are, and I'm at least able to say I'm losing to some of the really veteran players in this forum. Just wish I could wring a bit more out of Freiburg, I think the problem with them and Union is I have an unshakeable bias with their players. And when I go against them, as I did with Union, they actually win. Goddamn =)
You and me both, I even forgot to make prediction for the game. Of all stupid ways to loose the points that one has to be in the lead Smiley I am quite sure this is my worst round in the pool.

I stand with Ukraine.
~

I came here to say that finally, after so many months of trying, I'm in the top 10!



It's a big deal for me because you guys are so well in predicting and it's extremely hard to beat you. I mean, a lot of good luck is needed for that. I can only hope that Luck will not let me down in the future too. Smiley

Good stuff mate! It's quite easier to climb up the ladder on Kicktipp (Just one good game week and you're in sight) and it is also twice as easier to fall off too.

Right, right, and that's what I'm afraid of at the moment. I don't want to tumble down from the heights I've climbed through such hard efforts. What I want is climbing further up, and, I can't believe it myself, but I did manage to make that one step up recently Smiley



I know that only extreme luck will save me from falling down from there, you guys are so great with your predictions.

here is my weekly reminder to all participants who have not yet submitted their picks:
~snip

thanks for a reminder, almost forgot about it
it is difficult to manage kicktipp as separate app to Superbru, but holding for now

interesting round, Augsburg is always a tough neighbor for Bayern, and bearing in mind that Bavarians aren't doing great job lately, this one could bring a surprise, although it is probably better to try to catch that on odds, betting, than in kicktipp
Stuttgart will face Leipzig in another interesting duel

Always appreciate the way KTChampions tries to apply bookmaker logic, I personally think it's more market dictated (how much money's riding on either side) than we think. And money's always going to be on Bayern globally, so I doubt odds balance out any time this season -- Alonso is flying, I hope he enjoys this as much as possible. It would be weird for Kane to break every record before him and still miss out on the very reason he made his move!

Yes, cash flow is the second (I think second most important and not the first) factor that bookmakers take into account. They cannot ignore it because even if they predict better than the players and will always end up in the black, a large imbalance in cash flow will lead to volatility in income, but bookmakers want to be in the black at every point in time. But still, the first factor is their probabilistic models - if they deviate greatly from them and rely heavily on the opinion of the crowd, then cunning people like you will make easy money from bookmakers  Cheesy

I think the cash flow on both sides is the major driver and the bookmakers have their thresholds, probably algorithmically included. It's not about disregarding the balance in strength between both teams, but if they get into a liquidity danger zone, the bookmakers are going to make sure that they balance it out. They are kind of hedging their own risks without ever losing out. This does at least count for the huge bookmakers that have no incentive to bet against any of the markets because they make their money on the spread they are offering. The large bookmakers can balance out imbalances in the bets placed in many ways. If the market isn't as liquid as forecasted, they can just include limits for any bet that is to be placed on a certain event.

That's quite a bit of work for you to keep track of cygan, your efforts very well appreciated (god knows I'd forget something like that).

I think their last loss was an outlier, a blip if you want. They're extra incentivised to catch up now so need to win that game in hand. I think they'll also have an eye on goal difference and it may very well come down to that, so I'm counting on a bounce back in the extreme direction vs Union.

the game bayern vs. union will probably not be played until next year in january/february.
this means the following points for our pool:
Code:
CLS63, Harkorede and Ulven each 13 points
buwaytress, 1r0n1c, Spray., bullrun2024bro, darxiaomi and Hhampuz each 11 points
LTU_btc 10 points
that these participants can still be considered as potential matchday winners for gw13


a little reminder to the users listed above, but also to everyone else...
tomorrow the catch-up match bayern munich vs. union berlin takes place and after the recent home defeat against werder bremen (0-1) Cool, you all still have the chance to change your picks (if you want)
will there be another surprise or will the frustrated bayern control the club from berlin-köpenick for the entire match and win outright?

btw the game mainz vs. union which was canceled last friday will be played on february 7th

Rules:

We are looking for the points difference between the two clubs Bayer Leverkusen and FC Bayern Munich (Bundesliga table) on 04.02.2024, 4:59:59 PM forum time. In the event of a tie, the difference in points in the number of bets will be decided by the Bitcoin price in USD, Coinbase, also measured at this point in time.


additional rules:

It would be weird for Kane to break every record before him and still miss out on the very reason he made his move!

at least for him, Spurs are no longer at EPL top, or that would be hilarious to see them winning title, and Kane settling for no.2 in Bundesliga

agree about market dictating odds on Bayern and Bayer to win the title, mathematically speaking, Bayer should always have better odds than current point situation on the table, due to bettors have more trust in Bayern to play-it till the end
but it doesn't happen every time, Ajax is prime example last season, all thought that they will line-up some wins and reach title, but they didn't
could happen to Bayern as well, hopefully will happen

Has Bavaria finally been dethroned? Moreover, Bayern is very good this season (compared to the previous one), but so far Bayer is even better.

it is actually only four points (7 with a game in hand), but Bayer looks really stunning so far
nevertheless, both teams have histories in situations like these, Bayern to catch-up whatever is needed, and Bayer to blow the lead, no matter how big it is Smiley, so it is far from over

but Augsburg to overturn a match in M'Gladbach is also big surprise, they were known as home team till this season, but so far winning away matches this season works for them

Yes, with different numbers of games it is customary to count lost points and not gained, but as we see, these “potential” points still need to be scored, right?
If we apply bookmaker logic, then Bayern is behind not by 7 or 4 points, but by 7 points minus the mathematical expectation from the postponed game, it will be approximately 80% * 3 = 2.4. It turns out that Bayern is 4.6 points behind Bayer.
Is it a lot or a little? Bayer currently scores 88% of points on average, but let’s say their average season efficiency is 80% (this is still a lot), it turns out that in a single game the team gains 2.4 points and loses 0.6. Therefore, the maximum number of points that Bayern will win back on average is 0.6 -> Bayern will need 4.6/0.6 = 7.66 perfect games to catch up with Bayer.
That was a bit of bookmaker logic  Grin
I can also calculate the percentage of points that Bayern should score in the remaining games if Bayer maintains its effectiveness (or decreases), but I already want to sleep.

due to the match being postponed (mainz vs. union) and the current points score in our pool, the winner of the matchday will only be determined after the match has been played
a total of 4 users (-Lemming-, LTU_btc, Spray. & darxiaomi) are currently leading the matchday with 12 points each and are therefore among the potential matchday winners, as are the other participants with 8 or more points
unfortunately, it is not yet clear when the match will be replayed

I think they should agree among themselves and make the same forecast so as not to push their luck, but to be guaranteed to get a yellow cap and a free bet  Cheesy It seems to me that this is an ideal plan, especially considering that forum connections allow you to trust each other.
