SEA is considered one of the weakest regions and that's why the confidence that you're feeling about a SEA team like Execration is bearable. I should have added disclaimer onto my last statement about that region. If it was Talon than I'd be happy to bet on them considering they were pretty good on the last Major but probably not on the other teams I made another risky bet, taking Ex- HR to win against TSM. Nothing particular in my mind, I think the odds are great and thats all. To be fair its a new patch so basically its a fresh start for all top teams in the Major

First the general freebets: From Round 8 we have arallmuus as a 30$ freebet winner and Trofo as a 10$ freebet winner. Arallmuus was the best in a h2h duel with jeremypwr and cls63, while Trofo won against Woodie and Dittoup. From Round 9 we have again arallmuus as a 30$ freebet winner and some H2H duels to be decided in Round 10.
So - freebet winners are: arallmuus - 60$ (2x30$) Trofo - 10$
Wait what, I didnt really expect to win any freebets but hey thankies ! I cant really remember but this is probably my first time ever to be getting freebets from Sportsbet in usd instead of mbtc. Normally Steve gave out those freebets in mbtc but I'll make a good use of these two once I got them I am not satisfied with my answers in the cup. I answered the questions far too quickly without any search. If I progress in the cup, it's just pure luck hahah Good luck guys in the cup Well ever since the league started you are both very lucky and good on answering all previous question. If I could bet by money on you perhaps then I would bet on you to be top 2 atleast I have 3 games to save myself.
Well actually we have 2 more games left though

I just can't understand how Barcelona is going to hire these two players if they have an unstable financial situation and they cannot afford the salary they have to pay for some players like Gavi. [/quote] I bet some players might be willing to take some pay cut if they can play for Barcelona and also considering that both of those two are currently having hard time to start as regular lineup then I dont think this is an impossible move to happen on the other hand, if they want to hire Messi they will have an even harder financial situation.
Do you honestly think Messi will go back to Barcelona to play for them and reduce his pay cut by tons of it if he can continue to play in PSG? Thats not happening especiall when Messi has nothing more to prove to the world after he won the world cup

Do you guys mind if we take a break this weekend?
I dont really mind, in fact I think its way better to keep some suspense for the final game rather than launch it this week I'd like to wait for Betnomi's response regarding the FreeBets I didnt know that we get freebets from this poker series since personally, if I took one of the three prizes, I would prefer to receive the prize on my BTC addy.
So we wont be getting this in our betnomi's balance as usual? and unfortunately we have seen in the past that betnomi takes too much time and we are sometimes in an uncertainty... Well you should have checked the previous poker series thread that was launched on the 'other' site. Yes there was only one other site that held the poker series and it was way less responsive at some point regarding to efialtis' post about his frustation dealing with them lol

Chelsea has become the one that leads the way to get him. If you were watching any news related to him and you will know if neymar is very close to the chelsea. His agent has been in talks with told boehly directly. [/quote] Considering that Chelsea might be able to pay him better lump sum amount compared to PSG, this is clearly a move that is going to happen in the summer. He is 31 years old and pretty much there isnt that many club out there that could match with what PSG offered him so yeah I can totally picture this in my head already Chelsea needs to sell some players first or it will not able to make a lot of moves in summer.
Given how bad Chelsea currently is, there is alot of players that will be making their way out in the summer transfer for sure

Hey, Trofo please could you have the whole cup scheduled and potential match up in the OP or at least in the first page of the thread, as well as the remaining potential fixtures, I think you had them on some post in this thread Pretty sure that Trofo will update them soon but here, I found them for you in the meantime https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5438071.msg61981371#msg61981371You will be playing against @slaman29 on round 10 and @LFC_bitcoin on round 11 In case if you want to know your potential Round 4 opponent for the cup if you get to the next round, its going to be either me or @mv1986 we have just 2 game weeks left in the regular league, right ?
Yes we are before everything is settled onto the next season I can finally close some gap on my minus score differences, was lucky to pull this off as I thought Brighton could have scored anytime there thus making the score 5-4 instead

How about an early Major bet to start the Major discussion? Obviously GG to win, its a no brainer. We know how good they were in Dreamleague so thats pretty much a guaranteed there and I am never convince with the SEA region team, therefore Im taking PSG.LGD to win as well. I also got a single slip on GG, thats how confident I am with that bet though

Just to confirm, that means that rest of the players who are not participating in this round of Cup are free to skip answering questions if they want?
Yes, if you got yourself knocked out on the previous Cup round then you wont really have to answer any question if you choose not to I'm curious about what arallmuus will do in the cup also as he is in-form on the recent weeks. Well the plan is to get myself to R4 of the Cup and win some merch kit from Sportsbet obviously but it would not be as easy as it sounds. Anyway, I have only won 3 times so far including scores from Round 10 so thats not really that much of achievement because 3 wins are pretty much average compared to most players in the pool across all division. I'd say @slissy, @Slackovic and @cryptofrka are so much better as these three are on top of the league with SD by miles compared to all others for now

Woah the client version looks so much better than the web version, I might be using the client version on the grand finale Would love a summer series.
Summer bounty series sounds good? Lets do this if possible . We've never had bounty/pko series before though I'm not going to be able to join you next week because of not being able to qualify for the final table.
Is it confirmed that we will play the grand finale next week?
This is the 2nd time that I got out at 10th so technically I didnt make it to the final table and @Jayce is the only person that has gotten 4 icarus card so far, so that means he always made it to the final table and won once which is really impressive

@arallmuus looks like you got the better of me, even if Brighton wins we have the same picks for Barca, so you win this already now that both DOTA favourites are in the finals. Don't think I'll need to worry about relegation as a point should be enough to secure myself, but I really needed this win, well done you!
Yeah you could have gotten top 4 by now if you ended up winning against me but hey let me take that 3 points so I can totally avoid relegation. At this rate it still doesnt feel that Im safe at this point as the last two games could be the turning point for some players -snip
I was expecting you could do me a great favor against arallmuus, but it turns out that I was mistaken to even pick you to win in the first place. Good luck I was abit lucky though but hey it looks like you should be getting 10th spot because @LFC_bitcoin lost against @Slissy. So that would put both of us respectively 9th and 10th which is abit safe from the relegation. iirc only bottom 2 players got relegated wasnt it?

We dont deserve it any way, good luck to Newcastle they totally deserve it.
Fun fact this is the highest number of goals scored by Newcastle this season across all cups and league. I guess they are intending of going hard on these last couple of remaining fixtures huh At this point its safe to say the current top four contenders will be qualifying for the champions league, the rest can try to fight for a europa spot and good luck to them!
Well not really I'd say Manchester United is in terrible shape right now to keep their spot as there are tons of injuries on their reliable defenders. Yeah I used the word 'reliable' as I wouldnt lump Maguire into that category so yeah things could get south for United though on some remaining games

Is there any new patch? And if there is then what are the chances for Gladiators? I'm waiting for answers from Dota experts curiously. Well actually the current games are using new patch which is totally different from all the previous patches so yeah both teams are on equal chance to get through the lower bracket final but given how both teams played today, I'd say GG is better though compared to SR This might be biased opinion as I want GG to get to the final as well to secure my next point

Liquid and GG are dominating the Dota2 scene.
Well not anymore with the new patch, basically all teams have equal chance to work around the new patch. Its pretty interesting patch and so different than what we've seen so far Im totally clueless for the playoff so I'll just go with picking out winner for tomorrow

Why was my answer numbered in yellow? Does this mean that my answer is wrong? Please remind me.
Which question is this? If you are referring to question #3, that means you and @dbshck have the same points for the H2H question. Aside from that, there isnt any other column that was marked with yellow colour
@buwaytress : we still have 3 points to get out of the last 5 questions because 2 of them ended up both with the same answers. So may the best/luckiest win this week

And arallmuus, Benfica really saved me, so glad they didn't give up even though they were out. Would have been 3-0 down to you if that late goal didn't happen. Igebotz, rooting for me? What? =D
Yeah it could have been and now Juventus is currently 1-1 against Sporting and Sevilla owned United so its not looking great for me at this point . Lets see how it turns out on the 2nd half Please note that we will be traveling and won't be able to notify you if you forget to submit, this is the only mention we'll be able to make. Ahh the perk of having your nickname starts with A . Its always on top of this notification list. Anyway this is a pretty nice special round

@arallmuus is one of 2 players with 2/2 so far, so he looks very good having a pull out of relegation!
That didnt last long as I dont get any points for two UCL games today and @buwaytress is catching up with me Come on..... Inter what a piece of shit you are, they made everything for Benfica to score
Yeah I thought 1 goal for Benfica was good enough to secure point for question #4 but oh well that happened
Anyway, I checked the spreadsheet and only one of us listed Kimmich as one of the potential goalscorer Well done @famososMuertos

Team Secret and Old G are now on their game 1 but this game 1 is in favor of Team Secret. Yes, they're now currently playing as I type this and the K/D score is 29-9 in favor of Team Secret.
Well I guess everyone just fixtated on watching Dreamleague right now instead of divison 2 WEU. Old G is pretty overrated and they are not even as good as some division 2 teams right now
Meanwhile, GG lead the 1st map against OG so another win from GG then Im going to be happy with this bet

Team Liquid and GG are just destroying their opponents and I don't see anybody stopping them. Real simple to make money at this stage, play those two to win and all other games take over 2.5 maps. Worked for me just peachy so far today.
Yeah, did similar bet earlier today and the odds was 4.2 combined for GG and Liquid -1.5. Well I was kinda experimenting that because GG was playing against Tundra so pulling 2-0 off is pretty impressive there I decided to make the same exact bet for tomorrow, odds are not great but kinda expected
