Alcaraz out. Sinner will walk over Machac.
Come on Fritz, kick Novak out and give me a much needed LMS point here..
I'm confident about my England pick tonight, Belgium not so much. Italy is a really bad team though.

And being an idiot, I went with Alcaraz instead of Sinner. Now I can only hope that Alcaraz can find some special energy to beat Sinner.
Why idiot? Alcaraz did smack Sinner down a week ago, I'd say it's a great pick.
Sinner's already through, he had the tougher QF and seemed to breeze through that. Only picked him because I watched him in US Open and I feel like he's really, really improved. Haven't seen Alcaraz play recently but he's always impossible to resist when he's up for it.
I guess it's because he's seen the future, Alcaraz is currently in action and have dropped the first set against Machac, now he's got to come from behind both a set and break of serve down to reach the last 4.
But if it's about a probable match up against Sinner in the semi finals, then I don't know why he'd be wary just yet, it's going to be more of an even game, with Alcaraz possibly the slight favorite again, and meanwhile Alcaraz looks physically in his best shape right as most of his prowess comes from be extremely physically great, Alcaraz also have won the last 3 match up against Sinner. So for me it's not a pick I'd be worried about right now, in as much as Alcaraz does get to advance to the final 4.

Well, not going anywhere with the round but at least VGK's win should allow a worry-free LMS -- not! No one is safe yet, but we'll all be hoping jayce and darxiaomi continue to do badly, right guys?

\Guys be focus. All we want to do is forcing the mafias to spend all of their money in LMS and someone to stop vd309
I did hope hosseinimr93 to out as well but he seems a nice person so it's okay, he can go through

For me, between these 2 it's the battle of surfaces. I'll always pick Alcaraz on slower and Sinner on faster.
I did not expect Sinner to walk over Medvedev - and Alcaraz is unexpectedly struggling against Machac. He just lost the 1st set in tie break.

P.S. Barca women's should have scored a couple a least, damn me and my enthusiastic pick.

Will be corrected, tagging crytofrka here to do the job. I am way too busy to bother with such small details
Corrected, we do check this so would have been fixed eventually.
Looks like LMS will be interesting once again, I hate the H2H's in LMS - Zverev is already out.
Sinner looks good though - he destroyed Medvedev. Đoković needs to lose to Mensik (not really possible) or Fritz (doable) for me to have any chance of earning the important LMS point there.
Nobody is safe with 2 points after 3 questions, hahah.

Seems like this round will be easy peasy in LMS, almost everyone full of points and than there is jayce 
I have started with perfect 3/3 this week, the swing week after week is just crazy, one week you’re top of your game, then the next it all comes crashing down, it might even get more interesting if no one gets eliminated for the next 2-3 rounds and the rebuy becomes very volatile.
Better not to worry about LMS for the rest of the week by as early as Wednesday, and it looks like the first 3 questions are about the easiest one could have for this week.
I was pretty much aware of that rule but somehow I completely forgot about its existence, I guess that’s due to the everyone not having passed that threshold before, but it will be rather more interesting this week with everyone look quite likely to reach that 3 minimum point mark, now even 3+ points probably can’t save you 😲

All people who are still in LMS have already earned at least 1 point. Jayce's LMS point in the spreadsheet is wrong. He answered question number 3 correctly and should have 1 LMS point.

That's not possible.If there is no one with less than 3 points, those with the least point will be eliminated and will have to rebuy if they want to continue in LMS.

Must be really hard praising my team week in, week out since the beginning of the season but you don't have a choice do you ?
Fair is fair, I was covering you dropping the leagues season by season and now I am covering a come back At least you give me something to write about.Seems like this round will be easy peasy in LMS, almost everyone full of points and than there is jayce

I'm surprised Barcelona couldn't score today. It has been a long time since they left the match without scoring a goal.
Harkorede we have both got off to a good start with 2 correct answers. I think we got 6 different answer but I have an advantage on the tennis question😁 And finally I have a round with more than only 2 different answers 😂 This will be an exciting match! let's see who gets the first point tonight. Let's go Colorado Avalanche!!😁

Yes, we've both got a bright start, I'm still gutted aby the tennis question, though. Really not the kind of point I was supposed to lose, Djokovic can still make sure I don't, I hope. With the number of question differences we've got, there is still a long way to go, but I reckon it will be an interesting match up.

I counted three different answers between me and ralle14 so every point is very important for me!
One of us will finally get the lead after today's NHL match between the Golden Knights and Avalanche. I might have a slight edge on the tennis question now that Zverev dropped, but I still think it could easily end on a draw when Alcaraz playing this clean could cause problems for Sinner.

Sure, whenever you feel there's something important going on please give us a shout. We scan a lot of stuff but also miss a lot of interesting things as well.
No issue, guy. I know your eyes are too far away from this spot, but don't worry, the Sherrif lives here and will take care of everything for you. Ghana supporters are all on their team's neck: "Lose another home game to a mediocre team, and we will destroy another stadium," is the new trend.

Djokovic was always super good in "China" part of the season. So I also took a risk on him to recapture a bit of his old form. I believe he can't compete on psychical level with the new generation like Alcaraz or Sinnet but he was always super strong on psychological level and experience counts for something as well.
I am feeling more confident now, knowing that tennis expert went with the same answer. Situation not looking good for us that went with 3-4 and more Barcelona goals as Man City leads 1-0 at the end of the first half, but at least my opponent went with 5+. Somehow I have a feeling that it was kind of a trick question.
October 09, 2024, 12:42:46 PM
I was expecting a rusty Novak
Hah, I was expecting the complete opposite when I went with Djokovic beating Sinner in the final, thinking that he might be pissed off because of how early he got kicked out of AU and maybe winning the tournament. So far he looks good, hopefully he continues like that. Now I just have to hope that Sinner potentially beats Alcaraz in SF or jeremypwr wins that point.

That surely is another way to look at it, but I never thought of it like that honestly, I still feel like Djokovic would struggle against other top 7 opponents, and revenge really doesn’t work out, you’ve got win every points possible. I guessed Djokovic would still be the major second pick call, I just wanted to act like I know better, now a Djokovic final appearance means I lose the point 😒

Pop goes Zverev, and I noticed he's in quite a number of Div2 picks. Both my picks made it through, still a long way to go, but as long as they both end up in the semifinal I will feel all right here, same as Rikafip. I'm confident Sinner can dispose of Alcaraz, less confident he can take the title.
I'm not even sure why I went for Vegas in NHL. Just liked their name better I guess.

Yeah, I just saw that Zverev lost 2-0 to Goffin who I have never heard of. OK, I'm not following tennis that close so that could be the reason I haven't heard about Goffin. But I didn't expect for a 2nd player on the ATP list to lose that easy. And being an idiot, I went with Alcaraz instead of Sinner. Now I can only hope that Alcaraz can find some special energy to beat Sinner.
