Sometimes, betting on the least likely outcome pays off well.

I became irritated after losing several bets with odds below 2.00 like these ones:



So, I thought, 'Hell, sometimes even less expected things happen, right? So why can’t they happen to me for once?'

And I placed a multibet on those two rather unexpected draws in the Liverpool vs. Fulham and Arsenal vs. Everton games, and guess what? Both my bets turned out to be correct:



The reason I like making bets like that is because when you lose, you’re not too upset since you kind of expected it. But when you win, it feels soooo good. Smiley

If Manchester City wins tomorrow, they will be 6 points behind Liverpool; this team hasn't won a game in ages yet is still in the title fight. This is insane.

Yeah, but with 1 more game played. Agreed it sounds crazy but imagine if Liverpool won yesterday and played and won against Everton as well - then it would have been 11 points and you would say shit, that's unreachable.
A game in hand for a team like Liverpool is usually 3 points, so I'd say that even if City wins today - the difference is actually quite big.

City wins in series and can have 15 wins in a row. Any team capable of that is always a contender.

Sorry about your bet, Madrid couldn't hold the lead for long, I also had them in one of my tickets but wolves already ruined that way way too early. What a week for CL clubs everyone dropping points - Juventus, Bayern, Liverpool, Arsenal and now Madrid. One of the biggest CL hangover weekend.
It was silly of me not to have taken the cash-out option. It was a decent amount, but I thought if Real won, then the other games I was about 90% certain of.

You forgot Villa losing, although they are one of the new sides who have managed life in the UCL very well for their club level.

They have taken the lead now but have been far from dominant, so would not be surprising if they lose the lead at some point. I have a thought to take a $43 cash-out, but I may just let it play out and see how it goes.

The London clubs usually have goals in them.

Losing points at home to Forest and Fulham hurts - but then again, there's no such thing as a perfect season.
We have to be happy with the point at the end, but Fulham was without both of their starting CB's and the points were there to be taken.
I think point solid difference on the table made them a little more relaxed, and five points more than Chelsea is still good.
I dont understand how Arsenal couldnt score a single goal against poor Everton, but this is another good thing for Liverpool.
Only one point for me today in superbru  Cry

Spurs, Arsenal, now Liverpool. Fulham, along with Bournemouth and Nott Forest, are the 3 overperforming teams of the season (expected position vs current position). And they've so far continued this run.

Still not too upset over our point, like most Reds who watched it should feel. We played 80 minutes a man down, and were still the likelier to win.

Chelsea biggest winner huh?

Madrid aren't consistent this season, currently they're drawing another game at halftime against Vallecano but you can expect goals from Chelsea and Tottenham so if that's just what you need, your bets are indeed safe.

Terrible weekend of predictions for me so far, truly pathetic. Looks like most other people in the pool performed similarly badly as I’m still in 3rd place before Notts Forest vs Aston Villa.

Not a good weekend, lots of surprising results this week that lots of big teams are playing smaller teams and we expected the big teams to capitalize on this to accumulate points yet we have been seeing some disappointing results. I have started badly too and I'm beginning to have second thoughts of changing my bets since the week has started this way and I think we might have one for those awkward weeks of inconsistent results.

Speaking of Nottingham Forest, they just saved one of my bets with those late goals. I now need the Madrid clubs to win and some goals from Chelsea and Tottenham.

As title challengers it is expected to be disappointed with the results but I have to commend how well Liverpool kept chasing the game with 10 men. When I compare that with how we played with ten men it shows why we are not title challengers.

Robertson is having a bad season and is technically never been on the desired level, I'm afraid we'll have to start looking for a left-back as well. Tsimikas is a good cover but hardly first 11 material.

That was a very poor performance from Arsenal, at home to Everton you will expect we will really go for it and take the game by the scruff of the neck, instead we just let the game get away from us and it was a very disappointing draw. Safe to say now we are not in the title race this season with the results and style of play.

Liverpool got a good point with the early red card and Chelsea can apply more pressure if they win tomorrow.

A win for us tomorrow and we go 2 points below league contender Liverpool and 4 points above corner kick marchant Arsenal. Another great weekend results for us but we're not in a title race.

No injury concern, first team fully rested, didn't play a single minute in Europe. It's a do or break for Brentford tomorrow.
You are having a good run to be honest. Brentford is too small for you to be a threat so good luck for tomorrow. We will have only two points to bargain, still the whole season is ahead. The only motivation we all have is, City is not in their original shape LOL

Ain't you familiar with our home record against Brentford? We've never won those lots at home, a simple game on paper but a really difficult game that could go either way. The last time we won those bastards they had Raya and Toney  Grin

Chelsea and Man City have a chance to capitalise on the other big two dropping points.

Need Amorim to further add to Pep frustration tomorrow to kill every hope of ever returning to the title race.

Not happy Liverpool dropped points but maybe it’s a point gained. Down to 10 men for 70 minutes and coming from behind to equalise twice. Arsenal will be disappointed they dropped points at home. Chelsea and Man City have a chance to capitalise on the other big two dropping points.

Unfortunately the match ended in a draw, at least Jota equalized but this was not the result we wanted to win, but the early red card made it difficult for us.
It was never easy to finish a match with 10 men from the first quarter of the game.

Maybe against Fullham at Anfield it won't be so tight.
It is tight now. Only a few minutes left however twice came from back from behind and with that red. Hopefully something happens to have us full three points.

Arsenal finished without scoring any goal.
Everton holding Arsenal to a draw is a good thing.

A good sign for the Chelsea club, at least they already know the results of Liverpool and Arsenal.
Chelsea won it will get closer to the title race.

Congratulations, because I thought that Real Madrid would win away with high odds, but unfortunately I didn't choose those odds because I still have doubts.

I’m looking forward to the PL games this weekend, hope and expect Liverpool to win. Alisson is back, hopefully Jota is too as he’s back in full training.
Liverpool will get back on track, in the previous game it was a bit of a goalkeeper error but now Allison is coming in, he was also great in the Champions League last night.

Hey now, wasn't it a three way tie?  Aren't you supposed to be patting yourself on the back also?
They were three people with the same points at the top of round 15 table, but if you check the leaderboard, you will see that yellow cap is displayed alongside hsh1 and DireWolfM14 names and it was not awarded to jeremypwr.
If I am not wrong, that should be due to jeremypwr having higher total closeness in round 15.


I feel you, but there are still 23 matchdays left which means you still have many chances to win the 0.001 BTC freebet.
It may worth mentioning that the reward for winning the weekly yellow cap in premier league pool is 0.002 BTC (not 0.001 BTC) free bet and if you win that, you will probably get two 0.001 BTC free bets.

I won. I won. I won!

First, I won the Round 14 Yellow Cap in Sportsbet's BTC pool on Superbru. For that I was given 2 free bets of 1 mBTC each, and I lost one of them, but my second bet was a success:



Real Madrid didn't let me down. It was a win with great odds, so the money I won was decent: more than $170 at today's rate!

Thank you Sportsbet.io for your amazing competitions and thank you @jeremypwr for running them!

Congrats Betwrong, I knew Real Madrid would win that one. This is their competition after all, they always win when it is absolutely essential. They’re not having a great season in the CL but nobody will remember that if they get to the last 16. That’s when the competition really starts.

I’m looking forward to the PL games this weekend, hope and expect Liverpool to win. Alisson is back, hopefully Jota is too as he’s back in full training.
