Participation fees started coming in, not so many so far but it still early days. Hell I haven't paid yet so that is at least one more participant I am 100% sure will be in

So far I have collected fees from:
buwaytress
LTU_btc
Leea-1334
CLS63
slaman29
icopress

Big shout out to you guys, since all of you are in my other pool as well, so no need to post anything there. To be fair, Serie A actually has one more participant,
morvillz7z. Don't know why but he does not like this pool while he is regular in Serie A.

@morvillz7z
What are the chances to make you join here as well if put out some well thought out peer pressure?

^^ Re fantasy, exactly right. It is about juggling optimum points. Salah was auto captain for me even when I was not playing and I managed to end up high on the SB pool for weeks -- you have to identify players like that early on and pay the cost, knowing everyone has them, just to keep up. Always fit, guaranteed starter, king of goals and assists, seldom gets carded. Can't afford not to have him.

I'd probably risk picking a new buy, but avoiding most of them. And then picking a form team from bottom half for defence.

I'm going to have to disappoint you for Fantasy though, I just don't have the time to even half-ass my picks for Fantasy and while I don't mind supporting a pool I feel like joining it and then dropping out is probably worse =p

You have to play all the pools, otherwise we will not consider you cool kid any more

A little bit of peer pressure to boost our number always comes handy.

When I see posts like that one you quoted I regret the decision to not make the topic self moderated. Thankfully those posts are very rare in our pools and I just sow that I am missing usual "don't post if you are not playing" sentence in OP. Will add it in the next edit or when the pool actually starts. If we are going by the book almost nobody paid yet so .... Roll Eyes

Ya just kidding of course I will play as many as I can, at the very least to keep playing what I already do. I know I gamble it all away anyway in a day if I don't use it to play these pools. Feels really dumb not to play something with chances to win every week for a whole season!

I promise pay by end of week, just so difficult to do things while working

See a real person couldn't possibly finish last, more proof he is not human! Fantasy really looked awesome tbh, it's just only problematic if you don't really have time to check for injury (other things to look at of course but that seems to be the problem for me to find out). IIRC it keeps putting some people at 50% risk when they actually played.

I want to say I'd join Bundesliga and even Ligue 1 but I fear I'll be just giving free money away there. Games are all right to watch, though.

yeah, basically fantasy requires much more insight and time, to play it properly, but also requires to be aligned with what others think, and to get players that are usually good, not one time wonders

my basic mistake was to put Vardy for captain, and Auba as second striker, they were nowhere to be seen throughout season, and picking Salah was just to obvious, and had to avoid it, this season I plan to do that a bit different and to change players between rounds

is there French pool as well? one too many, I am afraid, we have low number of people for that number of pools

Fantasy is all about points gained per million of cost for majority of the team. And then you simply must have players like Salah or TAA, otherwise you will get so far behind that there is no point in playing. Salah is captain option almost every week and everybody will give him the band, you cant afford to miss on those points.

Anyway we now have Fantasy pool as well, so I expect at least 2 of you to sign up there as well.

Nah, he is real person, he played Premier League Fantasy with me last season and finished last out of 40 or maybe even 50 participants Grin

yeah, biting the dust in Premier league fantasy, but expecting better season now, learned from mistakes in previous season
and it is a good competition there

did you saw that there is now Bundesliga pool as well, interesting, but not sure that I will join, I am having several already, is there other interested participants?

Great news to hear from Trofo, thank you Sportsbet for giving us another chance, thank you buwaytress for always also supporting, thank you casperBGD for accepting a 20 point penalty to make it fair for the rest of us normal human beings Wink

I will make the payments to both pools this week. Was actually thinking to stop Serie A but since you guys seem to be playing all, I'll do as best as possible to do the same!

Barca, guys, Barcaaaaa!

I think changing the name depends on the management, if he dares to change his name to something like that then it can be partly one of the best choices because it can show sponsors who have donated a lot of money, while punishing them by banning them from participating in matches then it will leave them very far behind, but if it's just a 20 point deduction in my opinion it's a light punishment. because they can still chase points when they get a win.

Huh???

And couldn't agree more about casperBGD. Needs to be banned and tagged for not being a real person, or at least, not human. Or at least tell him to stop the matchfixing already!

So it is just a matter of Spanish league for casperBGD. You know how they say, it is easier to come to the first position then to stay on it. This year we are all gunning for you.

@LTU_btc @Harkorede I hope you brought your bastard A-games to the table because I have a feeling it's just going to get even harder this season!

@leea: so, what, Atletico? or are you going to go exotic and go for *cough*cough* Valencia?

Are we still banning CasperBGD as per last season consensus, or should we settle for a 20 points deduction from his total points tally at the end of the season Grin

?

I would agree with all community decisions, it will be hard to win fourth in a row, and this would be great excuse for not winning it when season is finished Grin

it will be as Nice last season in France championship, with deducted point

That's another huge sponsorship on the ground from Sportsbets.io! I think the "Gambling" board should be named after Sportsbets.io Grin

, they're the one making these football league competition pools and board at large mostly worth the while during the season, big thanks to the them and to you Trofo too, for being able to secure the sponsorship deal for both La Liga and Serie A, the entry is very fair and I'd expect/hope we get more participants this time around.

I am happy to inform you guys that sponsorship has been secured, our main Sponsor this year is again Sportsbet.io with whooping 100mBTC. Should be even better money by the time rewards get to be paid out. We will also have our secondary sponsor buwaytress to chip in with something. I will let him announce it himself.

Buy in for our pool will be 1.5 mBTC and we will again have some free bets promos/challenges for participants, courtesy of Sportsbet. I expect that this part will be more or less same as last year. Did not iron out all the last details yet. Will officially start the pool tomorrow probably so you guys can start joining.

Sent payments for both pools already. Good that I checked Serie A thread and saw that there is another address because I already wanted to send payments for both pools combined to one address Cheesy

.
Thanks to Sportsbet for being very generous again. And offcourse to our old friend @buwaytress for support again.
Hope to see all old faces in our pool again and some newcomers too. And let the best bastard win Cheesy

.

It is better this way since I have easier way of tracking transactions but if you paid on one addy I would find a solution. Probably just paid double for myself on other pool and that is it.

Pro tip for those who use wallets like electrum. This is perfect to try out "pay to many" function and send money to 2 address in one tx.

Official phrase for the pool is "may the biggest bastard win" Grin

Pool is officially open now.
You can start sending your 1.5 mBTC participation fees. No hurry, you can wait until I finalize free bets incentive as well. We still have more then 3 weeks before La Liga starts. Superbru still doesn't have it among tournaments so I can't admit you in anyway.

congrats on sponsorships, it is great news

thanks to both, buwaytress and Sportsbet, seems that this year will be fun, and more participants should be expected

back to league, Valencia have beaten Dortmund tonight, and that could signal better season, maybe we can kick-out Sevilla from top4 and CL spots, will be a big success, after two lousy seasons

Trofo, great news to hear on Monday!

Think we all owe a big thanks to you and to Sportsbet.io for renewing your support to the various pools -- and making it even bigger. Now if people don't start joining this season, they're missing out big time!

Thanks also to sponsor and manager for being gracious and allowing me to be the supporting cast -- I'll chip in with 8 mBTC each to La Liga and Serie pools!
