Topic: ⚽ Sportsbet.io ⚽ Spanish La Liga ⚽ Football Pool Discussion Thread - page 127. (Read 31322 times)

I paid ... I want to add that my question was related to the fact that I had never withdrawn such a small amount from my account, so I asked, and by the way, what jeremypwr said makes sense, since I just noticed that the minimum amount withdrawal 1mBTC. In any case, let's see how many mBTC will be credited, although I sent a little more in case there are any commission costs. Have a nice week

Pay whenever it is convenient for you, I will not pay before I get home next week probably. We have a deal.

I have no idea about fees on Sporsbet, they never took a single cent for fees on my withdrawals. But somebody, I think @jeremypwr mentioned that 2 mBTC is limit for no fees. I was always withdrawing at least 20 mBTC and thought that it is no fees no matter what. If it is important to you ask live support, they should be able to answer that one from the head But since we made a deal and you'll pay 2 mBTC in one tx it should not apply to this case.

SegWit is in from next year Have no access to the wallet while on holiday so decided to use the same address and start collecting on time as more important.

Can't edit that post, has to stay unedited for accountability. I make it a rule to never edit "important pool posts" since OP gets edited a lot and they are actually serving as contract. Had no idea that forum works that way, I wrote a post before changing the OP and it got the old title. I thought when I change title in the OP all posts had new title. Obviously not the case, will keep in mind for future.

Hey guys, so happy to see this and Serie A return, and Sportsbet doing us a huge one and sponsoring both. Me, I'm happy to have the tiny pride of being the first sponsor for all the original pools, but couldn't be more pleased to see a proper brand backing all of these awesome threads and pools.

I love the community here, but let's see if we can help grow La Liga (and Serie A) to the same levels of awesome bastardity as EPL;)

@Trofo you need to edit this post and OP to reflect the new sponsor's name on the escrow address =)

And yes SegWit pls. Let's all help make legacy obsolete =D

My short memory ... thank you for reminding me about this payment option and thank you for your offer, I will accept it and can pay today. One question ... When you withdraw funds from your Sportsbet account, are transaction costs deducted from the main account or from the withdrawal amount?

It is not possible to pay for them in one transaction from Sportsbet, pools have their own different escrow addresses and I have to have a correct amount on both of them when pools start.

I already mentioned a workaround for this which works fine. You just agree with somebody else to pay double for one pool and that other one pays double for other pool - effectively saving on transaction fee or enabling using Sportsbet no fee option. You asked first so you are now my fee buddy.

You pay 2 mBTC for La Liga covering your and my fee
I will pay 2 mBTC for Serie A covering my and your fee

Agreed?

This solution has an added benefit of cheaper tx when sending rewards so by all means try to employ it, there will be more money for all of us. Just make sure to let me know who you are paying for in the PM with details.

I am also determined to participate in the pool .... If there is no objection, I will pay the registration fee by the time you return from vacation, and I would really appreciate it if you sent a short mass notification in the spirit of "time to pay" after returning from vacation. And a parallel question, is it possible to pay the fee for Serie A and La Liga in one payment? This is due to the fact that the minimum withdrawal amount to Sportsbet is 2 mBTC. ^{[thanks in advance]}

I'll kick start Serie A pool later today. Don't worry if you guys don't see participants part of OP updated during this first week, I am on vacation so leaving that part for when I get back, around 10th of August. That is the time when I will make actual Superbru pool and start sending invites.

Last year I decided to not use SegWit because there were several people sending money from different bookies/some other services and I was quite sure several did not accept SegWit addresses. This year I went with same addresses since I don't have access to my "escrow wallet" while on holiday. I agree it should be SegWit since it got way more supported in the meantime, will be from next year

If somebody wants to save a bit on transactions and intends to join both La Liga and Serie A pool let me know. I will pay double fee for one pool and that person will pay double fee for the other.

Already sent BTC couple minutes ago  . It's cool that we will have Sportsbet as sponsors this year. Already can't wait to compete with old rivals .
When you will start collecting money for Serie A pool? Not my league, but still it was fun to throw some money last season .
P.S. Why you don't use SegWit?

Ok guys, it is time to kick start this pool. If you were playing last season La Liga pool and COPA America pool, you already know everything. If you did not you'll get the hang of it quite quickly, so no worries and ask anything that I forgot to explain.

Sponsor:
I am happy to announce that our main Sponsor for this year is Sportsbet.io
The deal includes:
1. 40 mBTC cash for pool rewards (around 1600$ at the moment)
2. 0.5 mBTC free bet for every participant, in other words you get half of entrance fee back as free bet on Sportsbet.io when the tournament starts
3. Free bets for weekly competition. If you played COPA pool you know what I am talking about. I am thinking of having one competition for both La Liga and Serie A pools.
We may still have another additional sponsor. Waiting to hear from them.

Escrow and payment address (same as last year)
I am escrow for the funds on below mentioned address. In order to participate in the La Liga pool please pay 0.001 BTC (around 40$ at the moment) to below address and send me a tx via pm so I know who sent the money. Be sure to include your Sportsbet and Superbru usernames in the same PM. After day or two check the paid participants part to see if I added you there for extra security. Thank you.

Depending on number of participants, I'll reward first 3 or 4 people. Exact numbers will be made public after first round of games but it will be something in line with:
1. 50%
2. 30%
3. 10%

Highest yellow cap: 10%

Still open to suggestions, so if you have something to say now is the time. After first game starts everything is locked in I'll edit the op later on.

Thanks for advertising offer but please don't do that. This is about our gambling community here on bitcointalk. I don't want newbies joining in just for the chance at high ROI. I want to expend our regulars number with genuine people here from bitcointalk that actually like to put some money on their opinions. When you add all the sponsorship money and free bets I could easily expand our pool to 200 or even 1000 people just by posting info on some bookie chats but that goes against my idea of what this pool should be and I would not put extra effort with all side competitions for anonymous money grabbers.

@Trofo depending on Bitcoin prices if I’m able to spare money for this I’ll join, as I’m out of job these days saving money is becoming difficult so it’s a 50 - 50 for me.

However I would like to support you’ll even if I can’t make it by sharing the redesigned OP in Facebook, other forums so let me know when it’s ready and hopefully that shall help you achieve your goal of 25 members.

Lastly if anyone has a good Reddit account with higher Karma that’ll be an excellent place to share, my account is with low karma hence it won’t last long there so if anyone has a aged account with high karma do spread the word there.

This is some quick turnaround, I guess you guys loved Copa pool Usually we need a week to get to 10 participants, if we continue like this we will fill that by the end of the day.

I am hoping to increase participants for this year to 20-25. That is actually perfect number for me, last year Premier league was sort of too big for my liking. Not that I am gonna limit participation, just saying 20-25 is a sweet spot for me.

You can already count me in to both pools. Can't wait for the next season. I hope it will be better season for Barca and now things doesn't looks so dark as before previous season.

you can count me in, as well
Valencia beat Villareal today, so this could be a better season for us, last one was a pretty big disappointment

regarding champions, this season could bring Barca back on a title road, but it is still early to put something on that

I'm in!

it's gonna be our season, Real Madrid fans! 

Bring it on mate! I'm in it to win it this time around!

I'm actually looking forward to the new season as Barcelona fan.. I would suggest you put up the collection early so that we can get the maximum number of participants.

Hey guys, time to bump our Spanish La Liga thread, can't have it dropping that low with the league start less than a month away I am gonna use this same thread and redesign OP a little bit in next few days. Not official yet but we will be sponsored by Sportsbet this season, I am expecting a nice boost to the pot and probably some side competitions with free bets as well as well. Still negotiating.

You can already state your intent to participate which will get you a PM as a reminder when time comes close. I will start collecting money 2 weeks before La Liga starts.

La Liga and our pool start at Friday, August 13th, book the date 

I am organizing Copa America pool at the moment. Maybe you want in?
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/sportsbetio-copa-america-prediction-pool-discussion-thread-5337628

I have just secured sponsorship for the pool via best bookie at the moment - who else than Sportsbet. I will write it officially tomorrow on Copa pool page but I am very happy with the deal and I think all of you will be happy as well 

I meant their signature campaign. It ended recently.

So I hope the winners received their winnings and is very happy. Thanks, @Trofo, for organizing this thing. We shall do it again if conditions are favorable 

What bustadice long run haha? Curious to know;) I don't play there anymore, just now at Bitdice but since the bullrun have not played much long sessions anymore because worried I will lose everything like before plus smaller amounts of btc now price is so expensive!

And again yeah it was a crazy season for me too, so unimaginable it felt like two seasons were played back to back because of Covid:)
