Congratulation to the top seeds.... what its your FIFA ranking for that Tongue
Well we tried to emulate FIFA to the maximum so seed positions were for sale to the highest bidders. We only contacted the very richest among all of you of since seed positions don't come cheap Smiley

Kidding aside we gave seed positions to well known members that are playing Sportsbet sponsored pools every year. More or less on first come first serve basis, maybe one would have been yours if joined earlier Smiley

Yes man i know.

But you know what they said. " The good things make you wait " Tongue

Yes i was really undecided because im a little bit lost between all the tournaments and promotions, but well after all i remind when we have the World cup all the other competitions halt off, so well lets try this.

Also i have to put in weight the overall spend in promotions killing my poor wallet.

I dont know if im going to put some outrights at $100 usdt catching that great promo.

I still remember Afcon as it is the only pool I've won so far. I had good memories there. Frankly, even though I'm showing a better performance compared to the previous years my only goal for the World Cup is to be able to qualify from the groups. It seems very difficult for me to do more than that when we look at the valuable forum members. Before the draw I'm feeling myself like Club Brugge in this picture.

Does anybody else not see the World Cup promotions that are all available I saw posted in SB ANN and rev threads?

I just recently asked Steve to fix my account so hate to ask him so often, wish there's a way to permanently not get blocked from all the promos lol.

-snip
I believe this happened with Afcon and even Champions League last season.


not sure from which position (but it was 10+), but I reached podium in Afcon i last two rounds, from SF, with prediction on Egypt at 0:0 in all knock-out matches

small number of matches, small number of total points, and all knock-out matches mattered, here in World Cup will be similar

in Champions league is different because you have two-match system in groups, and a lot more matches during group stage

You have an amazing memory, I actually can remember that, Egypt going to final but actually couldn't really score, IIRC Senegal also went every game almost the same score 1:0? My pick was Egypt actually and I at least got the freebets from all the outrights. So I'm hoping to capture that same magic with the outright promo again Smiley

I did pretty bad at recent contest like this (F1 and EPL predictions) but I will hopefully give the guys in my group some competition this time  Grin

good luck everyone!

In F1 we were so few participants and of course it was much more difficult than the EPL,but I think in the EPL there is still a lot of time to improve,we are more than 60 persons there and thus just a couple of rounds can bring you up considerably if all others do not bode well in those rounds.

The World Cup is going to be a great event and the good thing is that this is a very short tournament compared to F1 and EPL so it is worth fighting for,for those great prizes that are on grab here for the winners.

I am not Top Seed! But I appreciate that, it means there's no pressure on me to perform.

BTW I got the PM from hilarious about the pool as well as the bracket, so I will look at all these options and make my winning predictions before the games begin!

I also got the message and the bracket and already put it all what I think will be in the FIFA extra mini prize.The boring thing about that thing is that once you predict the group stages and only a few games remain you have no choice of recovering and that is why Superbru excels,it gives you opportunities much further than FIFA predictor does and that is why the main event will be with Superbru to give us all an equal chance,even to those who do not start the event in the best possible way.

To be fair it's almost the same thing with Superbru pool prediction, when there are very few games left, there are times we already know who the winners are, just not sure of exactly who gets 1/2/3 and so on. Sort of like you already know who is going on the podium, but not sure the color of their medal Smiley

I believe this happened with Afcon and even Champions League last season.

Pros and cons, but in the end I think always more pros for all these formats Smiley

We have 35 applications so far, from which 25 are confirmed for participation.

We are keeping a place for @darxiaomi until end of day today as announced, and the other applications are from members that do not fulfill all the criteria but will be taken into consideration if the remaining 7 spots won't be taken by other members.

We plan to close applications by the end of this week and than work on the draws and questions for the 1st round.

The latest version of the spreadsheet can be found here.

Good news everybody, we have received sponsorship money from Sportsbet.io on our escrow wallet.
Escrow address: bc1qge3m389y0kezc6qxnzv8ehuvdv5etveu242vzsjwfjk9x58mtfnst0wxwc

We have a total of 177.53 mBTC for rewards which will be awarded as follows:
  • 1st place 76 mBTC
  • 2nd place 40 mBTC
  • 3rd place 25.5 mBTC
  • 4th place 10 mBTC$
  • QF reached 4 mBTC
  • R16 reached 1.2 mBTC


*all rewards will be paid out when competition finishes in one transaction
*we have left in reserve about 0.4 mBTC for transaction costs, if anything is left over it will be added to 1. place reward, if it isn't enough, remainder will be taken from 1. place reward. It is the biggest reward and few fractions of mBTC more or less shouldn't have much of an impact.

The early version of the application list is here.
Green is certain, reserved spots kept until Wednesday.

We have introduced seed spots and filled them with users who mostly participate in the pools. It was a bit subjective so sorry if you didn't make it.
It's basically just for fun and doesn't offer any real advantages - just means they cannot be placed in the same groups at the beginning.

The seed list isn't final as well, we'll let you know when you can take the data in the spreadsheet as granted.

Very good point about cash out!

So instead, maybe after the round also people have to provide screenshot of their settled bet in the spreadsheet (just add imgur link in a new column). That should make the job easier for Sportsbet?

Another way I guess also in the end, all winners can be checked to save time, and disqualified ones can pass to next person. Sort of like in sports unfair winner is investigated later anyway hehe.

Easy for me, bet on Spain until they are out or win, handicap if odds not 1.5x  Cool

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.

Yee, thank you, now i got it.
It's sad that i can't take multibet 1.2*1.3*1,4 consisting only from World Cup games but Ok.

~
And yes, I don't get why people aren't filling up these spots more quickly. We're all gamblers, and the forum suggests hundreds of people all gambling on football. Biggest football tournament on the planet. I'm going to be betting out of my ears anyway. Why not try for a nice Christmas bonus, right?

I'm going to be pinging others in other pools but only after talking about it in Clubtalk. Maybe it just needs time for news to travel.

Maybe they haven't realized yet that the World Cup is about to start as they are used to seeing it in the summer  Grin
As far as I remember, the number of participants in any pool is more than the places here, so I think all the places will be filled.

Considering it's only day 2, we're quite happy with the response so far.

We're positive that we'll have all spots filled before the tournament starts.
If I counted correctly, 21 spots are already filled based on all criteria, with 7 additional applications from members of a lower rank and neg trust.

If you have someone on your mind, better tell them to hurry Grin

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."

It's probably going to be MLs and betbuilders for me (those count right Trofo?).
