Btw, how's the fantasy league?  I'm gonna make an account later and join up.  That should be fun too.  Anybody wanna make a small bet on who ends higher in fantasy?  I don't have experience playing it.  Played some free ones in the past, but never really took them serious.

What, between the two of us? Only me joined. I joined another league but don't know how long I'll carry on with it, so not interested in putting money on it this season.

If anyone wants to join it go here:

God damn you scored nicely hilarious, congrats on the yellow cap! I'm really loving this and I'm super happy I decided to not sit on the sidelines any longer.

Off topic: Does Superbru offer these pools for CL as well, and will you either way have a CL pool running here on bitcointalk? Smiley

Yes and yes. I'll get one going soon.

Nice!  Playing these pools are really helping me avoid gambling too much while still having a stake in the matches.  Lol.

Just checked the leaderboard, I’m in 8th with 13.0 points. Congrats to hilarious, great effort with 18.5 points, setting a great pace in round 1.

I thought I’d be higher than 8th, got 2 or 3 exact scores & missed a couple by 1 goal. Just shows how tough it’ll be this season to win a prize.

It’s a marathon not a sprint though bitches, I’m not going anywhere Wink

I have a feeling City will again be champions and Liverpool will be the only team able to keep up and hopefully made it interesting.

I'd love so see Liverpool take it this year. Never been a big Liverpool fan, partly because of my burning hatred of Steven Gerrard, but my unyielding love for Klopp has overcome that. If any manager deserves the trophy, it's him.

I'll be behind Liverpool this season. I think the title will be between them and City, but who knows what will happen.

Wow our captain really took his A game with him. I thought I had a good chance of winning the yellow cap but I went for a "shock" predictions for the remaining 2 games. I thought surely this week 1 must have at least 1 upset. Like Trofo said, this week was rather "easy", just a matter of who predict exact scores. Results all went the favorites' way, no big upsets over the 10 games.

A lot of teams failed to score, which is not what I expected too. Normally many goals and both sides scoring in English games lately.

There's usually always some shockers on the first round as teams are shaky coming back from the break and gelling with new players etc and you've got no recent for to judge either team on, and so making correct predictions is often difficult, but I guess this year it's the anomaly. 0-0 games are where you can gain a lot of points. People seem to rarely choose them (or even draws). I tend to pick them when I think there's two poor teams that will cancel each other out and it worked on the Southampton vs Burnley game but not on a couple of others.

And the hunt begins....
I like to keep close to the top and then make surprise push in the few last game weeks to take the top spot Smiley

This was actually very easy game week to predict. There was almost no surprises and certainly no big surprises. I am thinking it will be much harder in the following weeks. I have a feeling City will again be champions and Liverpool will be the only team able to keep up and hopefully made it interesting.

Congrats, you killing it. I got the spoon, whatever that means. Not even on the last place.

MoSalah is and they have the spoon from my view. Is that you?

Well three correct scores for me and the bastard of the week with the first yellow cap  Cheesy. I narrowly missed out on four other correct scores by one goal, two of those games screwing me over in the last few minutes with a late goal. Imagine getting seven correct scores. Would have got me a cash prize of £500. I suspect missing out on a lot of games just by one goal will be quite common though and that's why it's so difficult to do so. Aiminbg for 5 correct scores from one round though to get myself a proper yellow cap  Cheesy.

Well, I started predicting my usual 3-0 scoreline that served me so well last season, but it looks like a lot of people are now liking this 3-0 scoreline. Credit to LFC and slaman for going even 1 better and getting the full 3 points for 4-0. Well done!



Salah scores, Mane got a brace, Firminho came close. Shaqiri looked lively, Sturridge got his 20 seconds after coming on. Can't say Alisson made any noteworthy saves so credit to Gomez in defence for helping VVD ensure we never needed to test our new keeper.

Couldn't be a better game really, except a small tarnish of a yellow card for Trent, but I like that fire in our players. Klopp hasn't changed much, subbed strikers at 3-0 up and hungry for more in the last 5 minutes, but maybe this opener was much needed.

I had Liverpool to win 3-1 and they won 4-0 so I think I couldn't get the close 1.5 points to the game. Had also a shock result with Burnley to win on Southampton 0-1 but it is a lost game for me. Main game starts just after a bit and I placed a really funny score on it.

^  Just wait til hilarious sorts it out.  He's prolly busy trying to figure out his next strategy in the fantasy league.  Lol.  Grin

Anyway LFC vs West Ham is on.  Should be good.  I still can't believe Pellegrini is with the Hammers.  Cheesy

Do you guys see this:
So now this contest is sponsored by cloudbet, really?
I think it's different and I send the entrance fee again Cheesy do I have to ask it to be returned or how? Roll Eyes
I didn't get any response, if it can't be returned it doesn't matter to me. I just want to know what your response is.

This is the first txid : 6ea79c14b426ab31578423ce4d160684d2f667af2ad3e86cbdda96d82a22a27a
and this is the second : 0af96fa56c58880f50c96fe21d245ed0b5362ec0d546b2c33b22d8eef191ffb4

That happened because I saw this: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/cloudbets-english-premier-league-football-pool-0005-to-join-prize-pot-021-4863740
I think it's different from this one, and I want to participate in both but it turns out that it's the same Pool.

because at first the title of this thread is different, but after I see it again it has changed and both are the same.

Slam point is awarded to the persons with the most correct scores in a single round of 10 games. It used to be 5 and up , but apparently it is being given even if you get less than that. For more you can see the explanation here.

https://www.superbru.com/news/introducing-the-slam-point?a=introducing-the-slam-point

No you get slam points for having 5 or more correct outcomes. Like I only got 2 exact scores correct but also 3 correct scores = 5 correct outcomes, so 1 slam point. 8-9 gets you 2 slam points. 10 gets you the most.

So I guess it is just to reward people who got a lot of correct outcomes (winner or draw) but keep getting the exact goals wrong.

Looks like I'm first place so far but still so early. I hate peaking early. hsports got THREE exact scores!
