So, I just realised this morning seeing ads on my tv (wanted to see which channels broadcasting) that new bookies in my place of residence are having their first big sports event (they were all created last year, 7 new online companies) and they all have really interesting promos for new customers. Fiat, so only like max bet 1 euro but big payouts like 50/1 on first bet, nothing compared to Sportsbet.

Don't forget an hour before kickoff there's a 3-hour window to get a 10% boost on all Bombay Live casino games (5 minutes only) on Sportsbet for those of you wanting to gamble while watching the opening ceremony! And a new bonus every day too, opt-in here: https://sportsbet.io/promotions/2022-world-championship-casino-offer

buwaytress also threaded the line a bit, with sending his outright bet as qualification bet but since his choice was such that it was basically a donation to Sportsbet I have let it slide  Grin Not gonna name his choice, but let's just point out he got the odds close to 300.

Joking aside this rule is here so that all participants have to use Sportsbet page and I know for a fact that buwaytress has at least a couple of qualifying tickets at any moment.

Thanks for confirming I entered the quiz, still not sure why I got the "warning" message about confirming as I don't recall seeing that before submitting on the test form.

And about the qualifying bet, sorry man, haha. Promise I'll send very simple bets from now on so you guys have fewer headaches. Right now have 14 active bets on World Cup just on Sportsbet... earliest bet was made 4 months ago. I thought I was being conservative and didn't keep track and then now I realise what an addict I look like... =(

I want to ask something related to the odds requirement, what if the initial odds of my bet were under 1.50 but after the price boost it shoots up to 1.52 does that still count or not?
Nope. Same rules as all Sportsbet promotions. You need that clean 1.50 odds without any boosters applied.


Getting a bit tired of answering qualifying bet questions, is it really that hard to comprehend or problematic to place a bet under 10$ on odds over 1.5?
1. You have to have 1 game from current match day with odds over 1.5, BB allowed
2. Total stake at least 0.5mBTC, or equivalent in other currencies
3. I have allowed outright for this first round, later on make sure it from current round of matches
4. Parlays are allowed but one game inside parlay has to cover those above rules. We don't care about other games in parlay.

Hell this competition is for people that actively bet on Sportsbet if it is such a problem to share a ticket which you should already have anyway....I can share 5+ tickets with matches from every day, you need to do 1 for entire match day. Why complicating it that much?

Shit sorry everyone! I should have read the rules more properly, I actually did but it never made it to my mind that it meant each single match must be over 1.5x but that's easy to do luckily with so many close games Smiley

Sending a PM now thanks for the second chance Trofo!

Why you think parlays not allowed. Single bet parlay or betbuilder they all bet, and bet is bet. As long as its first round of WC we should good to go. Good luck everybody. Dont overthink about rules. Try enjoy the game

Submitted my application.

I was feeling we would see some surprise just before the first match, now I have a slightly advantage in the France game since the Benzema option is already a no

I haven't read a post saying parlays aren't allowed. So most probably you'd be fine as long as you're minimum odds at 1.50 and above with a minimum bet of 0.5 mbtc.

conditions is to have one match from first WC round, with a minimal odds above @1.5, you can have it as one on your parlay, or add as many as you want to that, but this one has to be there (as understood, for each round, rule is the same, one match from that round, odds above @1.5)

there are some picks around 1.5 for anyone to pick, except for Denmark, they are a bit below that (not that I am sure Denmark will win), and you can play on goals on any match (those are usually above 1.5)

what about first match, goalless draw?

Aren't parlays really not allowed?

I would be more comfortable with a parlay of two or even three "safe" legs in the first round, but rules are rules. It's the first winter World Cup and the first World Cup near the desert, I feel we may have some surprises.

I haven't read a post saying parlays aren't allowed. So most probably you'd be fine as long as you're minimum odds at 1.50 and above with a minimum bet of 0.5 mbtc.

I also wonder if, for example, my bet is a game in the second round, would it qualify as a valid bet here in the first round? What if I bet an outright on Argentina, is it okay? Sorry, if my question might have been answered already before but I haven't found an answer to this so far including rules at op. 

By the way, I already submitted mine yesterday. Hopefully, I am not that far from my group mates. They seem good.

I also got the tag notification earlier, appreciate it. Cheesy I took my sweet time answering the questions and I'm hoping it somewhat pays off. Good luck to all of us. Smiley

So, I submitted my answers, hope that everything is fine. Don't know what to expect, but questions weren't easy and required some time to answer. But fact that World Cup is in the middle of season and teams didn't had much preparation, like friendly games makes predicting even more difficult. After all, it's luck, like predicting exact score.

Benzema is a bad luck for the national team, he is a world class player, but Giroud brings more luck to the team, he creates space and improves everyone around him. I hope Deschamp does not repeat his error from Euro 2020. Mbappe, Giroud, and Griezmann play well together.

I like the way Denmark plays and I'm still counting on them to progress further than England, Portugal. They play really nice football.
Denmark is my black horses of tournament. Not sure that they will go further than England, I hope yes. Football that they're playing is great to watch and they got good group. Maybe Nations League isn't best indicator, but we saw that they're capable to win against France, so, 1st place in the group isn't mission impossible for them.

EDIT it seems that Benzema got injured and will have to miss World Cup  Sad

It's been quite a stressful day, way more than I anticipated to be honest, but I've just submitted my predictions too, more than half of them are fairly tricky and some I just had to guess and there is no way to have any idea whatsoever beforehand.

I like that it's actually something entirely different from what we've been accustomed too, and it make it more interesting to see how it will all go, but thanks to team Sportsbet.io for the never ceasing support to make every tournament worthwhile, and props to Trofo and Cryptofrka too for trying to handle such a lasting competition without being chanced to partake must be strenuous  Lips sealed, but that should surely increase my chances  Tongue

Here is my betslip,


Good luck to everyone!

buwaytress also threaded the line a bit,
...but let's just point out he got the odds close to 300.

I'm sure he'll beat such odds if not more at some point, as he never stops, whenever I see City or Bayern lose to an odd of 20 or more, he is the first person that comes to mind that would have made something off it.

seeing that some bets do not qualify, just to double check
we need to put stake bigger or equal to 0,5mBTC on a parlay that includes World Cup (or have to be only World Cup pairs?)

looking to avoid that PM from organizers that my bet do not qualify Smiley
1 game on your ticket has to be world cup game from that match day and that one game has to have odds over 1.5.
You can leave it as single or add 10 more pairs that can be anything you want at all.

Your bet does not qualify per rules. We will not allow any answer changes but we will allow that you and anybody else that maybe got ticket wrong sends us a proper qualifying ticket and bet ID over PM. I will go over the tickets now and send PM to users that got it wrong. This service is only available in MD 1, read the rules guys.

Thanks for sending me a private message sir, I also doubted at first that I was following the rules exactly, if you didn't PM me then I would still be wrong LOL. I will fix it sir, and will only make 1 bet with a 0.5mbtc value. Grin

P.S. I had an message pop up saying I can only submit once, and asked me if I'm sure to submit, so... if I submitted twice, that was a mistake (probably same answer though I doubt I put in a different form?).
You only have one entry in the table so all good there.

I submit my predictions, one thing to say, can we in the next round only submit the BET ID and not the image?.

Another question like in the test, its available the sheet to see our predictions?.
You have to give us screenshot since we have no way to check the ticket over bet ID. We use BET id just in cases when we suspect cheating or for some users we are keeping closer eye on. We have to ask Sportsbet to do that for us and we don't want to do that too often.

Sheet will be available when first game starts and no new submissions will be accepted. Otherwise you could just copy somebody answers. Not so important now but will become much more important in MD 3 for instance.

The French team is nothing without Kante and Pogba; the team has been struggling without these two players for some time now, and they are unlikely to advance beyond the group stage. You should keep an eye on Denmark because I believe they will make it at least to the semi-finals.

Hey, they can always rely on some old guy like Giroud or Benzema, like they have been for a long time.

Denmark, eh? I don't think they're bad at all, just not good enough to break down one of the S Americans.

You are the minimum point mark anyways, making sure you are always behind my username   Grin. This is the only way I don't get bored.

I'll do my best to make it hard for you!
The competition is pure luck, I was expecting players' background questions but this is still cool. You can always try.  Grin

@slaman29: Sorry man, KTChampion is right. You can make multibets, but one leg at least has to be 1.5 odds minimum. Betbuilder's probably the only way to mix up a lot of "low odds" outcomes to achieve 15/10 minimum. I used an outright bet, but I'll probably be placing lots of bets throughout I'll have so many bets to pick from Wink

Anyway, thanks for the quiz, Cro2! I had I think 3 tags on this thread/related so I definitely saw it haha.

Good to see it's fairly non-technical, don't think anyone will have a problem participating, at the same time I liked the style of choosing a star that may or may not play, that's literally a coin toss to me, whether he gets to feature, and for how long!

Anyway, my early answers locked in. Put in a qualifying bet on the Lions of Teranga!

Anyway this is my new qualify bet Smiley




It looks like your bet doesn't qualify, this issue was discussed in the thread:

I am ready to start even if the required number of participants is not collected, the main thing is that the prizes remain  Grin
A bet with odds >1.5 means any bet (multibet) where at least one outcome includes an event from the World Cup?
I should note that many bets will be won, that is, in fact, this is a very generous competition, I don’t understand why not all slots are filled yet.
A bet with odds 1.5 or over is meant just for that qualifying game. Meaning you have to play a sigle or a multi bet which contains any market from that round of world cup games which has the odds of at least 1.5.

So you can't play Brazil to not lose against Serbia and raise the odds with other games. You will have to play both to score or something that has big enough odds and then you can leave it as single or add something more. Whatever you prefer.

Hope I explained it satisfactory.
The full rules in case you want to read:

Quote
The ticket must include one game from the World Cup from that round with minimum odds of 1.5. Cashout is not permitted - we can check it with Sportsbet."

I did not invent anything complicated and just bet on Ecuador  Grin
I think Qatar is highly overrated and Ecuador is not a clear favorite just because Qatar is the hosts, plus very rich (there are risks of corruption). But I hope that we will see pure football and Ecuador will win.
