I think I got 7 correct for the Chelsea lineup, I thought they’d make a few changes  after the CL game. Mudryk would start I thought (The Chernobyl Adama Traore 😇)

I don’t think I’m having a good round 2 to be honest. I will have to do better in round 3.

There was a good reason for that question, Potter is a bit lost as you said but even more importantly he has a roster of 50 players instead of usual 25 after last transfer window 

Still no excuses for you, I expected more from our resident Chelsea supporter, just 7 correct, that is casual range. Can't believe even total noob for Chelsea things like cryptofrka has done better than you with 9. Now it is for the best that I stop with trash talk since I probably have 4 or 5 correct. Don't even want to check.

I got about 8-9 correctly of the starting XI too, I knew Loftus-Cheek vs Kovacic was a coin toss imo, but Sterling and Ziyech, over Mason Mount and Mudryk isn't what I was expecting ngl.

Alcaraz should just lose this game and do the entire world some good

If this announced lineup actually starts I think I got 9 correct

The Alcaraz - Norrie game will be interesting to track, I feel that a lot of matchups will depend on that one. Alcaraz is a favorite, but 1 dropped set might make all the difference.

Graham Potter has struck again!! What's the deal with these lineups? We're not going to win with Ziyech, Sterling, and Havertz up front. BTW, Cro2 team, that was a technical question you had there, and you all know how shy and confused our manager is right now. Kudos

LRC over Kovasic
Koulibaly over Bashidale ( our most inform CB)
Ziyech over Mudryk

Got only 7 right...... Lol Potter happened to me.

I just need draws for lower and upper bracket announced today, hopefully there will not be too many tie breakers. If they start playing tie breakers like in the last event deadline for posting questions will come and I will not be able to do anything about it

Some sports like tennis and DOTA really make it challenging to include them. We always have to make tennis question something about outright winner since we only know first round draws when we post questions. Our schedule is geared towards football with emphasis on Champions League in this first season.

First question of Round 2 guaranteed burst...hope my adversary went the same route 

So Alcarazv made it to the finals and what I hate about his opponent (Norrie) has never won a match against the Spaniard, this is too easy...Atp ranking 2.

Feel like those any congratulatory messages need to start flowing in as soon as possible  and at 1.2 odds quite generous

My Alcaraz prediction is in a tight spot after he dropped a second set in the semis earlier against Jarry. I'll need a clean 2-0 win from Alcaraz to maintain the draw and I might throw in a bet if the odds are good enough as I don't like my chances on the Chelsea question.

Also, i'm looking forward to that DotA question in the next round. 

I sent my answers a few minutes late and that affected a point in my favor, now I am losing 3-1 and I highly doubt that I will win 2 points and be tied, apparently I have already lost this round

I see that you colored rows of H2H question differently. Thank for that. It's much easier now to track my success. And when I say success, it really is. I'm up 3-1 against the last week Division 2 champion. I know we have a lot more questions to go but I like my odds.

I know. I know. And I promise (heh heh) my last big bet will be on Real 2nd leg. After that, stick to upsets.

Today is Bournemouth under 11/1 to win at City... Can't believe the odds are so low these days, even Nott Forest was less than 10/1 last week. Just goes to show the confidence in City is waning, along with the betting value.

3 seasons ago Newcastle 25/1 vs City. How times change.

DOTA? I'm absolutely going to wing that one. I'm away from home til Tuesday so not sure I will find time to research.


I haven't learnt this lesson for years. I'm a very, very poor student, as it turns out (though I should have understood this from my teens).

If I could have powers to bet against my team to ensure I lose, I'd do it. It's crazy how I can't even try put 1 cent against them though!


Here's another big smile for you. It's 90th minute and Benzema has made it 5-2 and we are losing and sad. I go to my laptop. My kid asks me what I'm doing.

I say: looking for odds on next game for Liverpool to qualify.
He asks: how much you gonna put?
I say: Oh the usual, just 1 euro. Always.

Spoiler: I did not put 1 euro...


Thankfully I'm not single and have dependents. Would probably have done something idiotic like that if alone. I went for your Championship picks too, by luck we actually shared upsets (but I skipped Burnley).

Maybe you want sell a house and bet everything on Liverpool?
You can check my Championship pick for this weekend, but don't blame me if you lose again 
Better be careful with Premier League this weekend, we might see few more surprises and unexpected results.

Haha, I love how you are turning reality into comedy

"I am doing poor, AND I know what to do next!"

Made me smile for sure!

I'm losing positions in every pool since last week, and nothing with my sporting endeavors has been going smoothly, so you can't be worse than me. LOL After two games in the BSFL, I'm already down two games.

Stop betting on your favorite team if you want to enjoy the game. I've learned the hard way that whenever I put Chelsea on my bet slip, I lose every single time. Going against them isn't working too. 

STOP BETTING ON FU...ING LIVERPOOL!!!!

Sorry man you needed to hear it   I know they brought you a lot of joy and money in last couple of seasons but this season it just isn't working for them.

Keep to your upsets, there is enough of them in PL every week and you will be back quickly. I have also been in red for some time, always missing multi tickets by one match. Good thing DOTA major started and I immediately won a couple of tickets. You can start preparing, I am gonna put one DOTA fixture in next week questions if schedule allows it. We need to mix the sports a little   And I will let my colleague surprise with some other sport if possible.

Who knows what I would have written if you wanted an advice. I call it selective reading.

Another poor week for me, picks, predictions, betting. What can I do but pour more money into last ditch attempts? Or stick it out and just bet on underdogs till end of season, while focusing everything on BSFL?

Not asking for advice. I know myself too well =D

These are the only ones that will be painted differently when we check the results. We can maybe mark the top rows in these columns with different color - we'll think about it.

______________________

Alcaraz lost a set against Fognini, he's still got 3 matches to the title and I can afford him to lose only 1 more set.
He's got Lajović next, that should be an easy win - he beat him 2-0 in Buenos Aires this year already.

Great advice! I somehow hoped that Man United can win and now I have 2-1 lead over vd309. I'm so happy because he answered most questions correctly in the last week. Now let's see how good are our other answers

One suggestion for Trofo and cryptofrka. Could you somehow mark the H2H questions in the table? Maybe it could say "(H2H) 9. Tottenham meets...". That way we can tell right from the table header which question is head to head.

Spreadsheet alone doesn't solve random draw and stuff like that, it is better to have it done by third party. We have something in the pipeline which we belive will look much better than screen shots. But more abot that from next week onwards when we implement it.

Regarding new players, we already have some players from Sportsbet Clubchat but this competition is here to reward bitcointalk and sportsbet users. So those are the only players we are interested in. Bitcointalk is sort of problematic for new users who aren't used to forums and especially one with strict rules like here.

Yes, it was tyKiwanuka, and sadly he is not active in forum anymore
Instead of having new screenshot image posting I think it's better for everyone to add that table in spreadsheet, unless it's extra work for you guys.
I am not saying you did anything bad, just tried to say my opinion and suggestions.

Maybe you can search for new players outside bitcointalk forum for the next season.

Never trust Barcelona in Old Trafford
