Bitcointalk English Premier League pool betting Discussion Thread

[ajaxmoor]

I think most of the people posting in the direct bet thread were just sig spammers and account farmers to be honest. I'm sure we'll get a few more users before the start of the season but 15 is a decent amount with a £300 pot.

I agree and their prediction thread was free to join that's why there's a lot of people joining. I'll try to share this thread on different places hope we get more people on the list.

Not entirely. Perhaps the people posting. But they did require participants betting close to 2 BTC to be eligible for prices.

Anyways, I guess my attempt to get Overs and Unders didn't succeed. But you can count me in now

[hilariousandco]

OK.  I'll add you to the of later. Thanks.

League starts on the 12th August so will probably start taking in funds on the 1st. Let's try get the pot up to £400 so need two more players.

[LFC_Bitcoin]

£20 buy in looks like the best option, I'd rather make it more competitive & have lots of us involved, be more fun that way.

1st August buy in is fine by me too.

[hilariousandco]

Yeah, it'll be £20 now seeing as that's what most have agreed to. Don't get me wrong I'd put in £100 still but many others haven't or won't agree to that so it's best not to complicate things as people might drop out.

[BitcoinSupremo]

Buy in at August 1 is fine by me too but what about if it happens a split, a hard fork which is a massive disruption to the bitcoin network. I think it is better if you start accepting Buy ins at 29 July so we are all risk free from possible disruptions of the network. I don't believe any split will happen but just to be sure.

[hilariousandco]

I can make it later in the week once the dust has settled or maybe Monday the 7th so that gives us the week to collect in money.

[LFC_Bitcoin]

Guys who haven't agreed to buy in, come on man what are you waiting for? This will be a lot of fun.

[buwaytress]

Come on, BCT gamblers. We just need two of you to make the pot 400 GBP! That's a small £20 buy-in for a chance to win x20, and it'll be a great promotion, especially to tipsters.

i'm in , £20 weekly is a fair deal to all of us, but i have a question if i joined the first week do i need to join  the whole season?

It's £20 for the entire season and you just make your predictions weekly. Can I put you down in the op?

£20 for the entire season it's small amount and i don't think is good option cuz you will wait a very long season to win a few bucks.  i can go with £200 For the whole season. and i think if you split the prize between the first three participants like 50 ℅ for the 1st 30℅ for 2nd 20℅ for 3rd it will be good.

It's a small amount but it shouldn't be much to lose either (or wait to lose) and you're winning more than a few bucks as the pot will nearly be at £400 if you're in. £20 is pretty good value for an entire season of entertainment and it'll be fun watching the leaderboard. I'd be willing to put more in but not everyone else would so we might end up losing people if we up the stakes.

One more person to make the pot up to £400.

So when are we supposed to send the 20 bucks?  The season starts on August 12.  So maybe we start sending the BTC starting a week before that?  Very excited. 

[Bitcoingiver]

I do be very happy to join  this game, at least am sure it wi be done fairly and it will soon start just about 2-3 weeks from now. I think the prize pool should be increased to about 400-500 .

I'll probably start taking in money no later than the 7th. Would have done it on the 1st but there many be some issues with the upgrade.

I have no control over the total pot as it depends on how many players sign up, but if you're in that'll take it up to £400.
