What is going on with Liverpool? Told you I didn't really trust them. Only one person got the draw and two people went for the Newcastle home win.

Looks like we have another unique round winner with Hhampuz. Maybe things would have been different without the cancelled games. No games until new years day now.

I wonder how those players got it.  Could they have sneaked out and goofed around with hookers and escorts?    I wouldn't be surprised.  Lol.

Well they probably got it the same way everyone else does. Would have been quite easy to pick it up over the xmas period seeing friends and whatnot. I still don't trust those tests either unless they have symptoms. Most of the positive tests seem to come along asymptomatic.

The hard work paid off 😂
Congratulations!

I blame jeremypwr. How it's possible not to see a score in this match. Did it happen before? Has jeremypwr offer any bounty to score before? Make your own conclusion. 🤣

But seriously it was painful to watch Liverpool was missing one after another easy chances in front of the net. As far as I can count was 6 sure chances. Two from Salah and two from Firmino are unforgivable. If we can not capitalize our chances then it's gonna be a hard season for us.


Edit:
After watching the first half and losing a betting slip of Liverpool to win the first half I took three single bets.
1. Liverpool to win with two other random match in a three fold. A small stake. Interestingly only one selection came out correct so lost that bet too.
2. Corner Castle over 4.5. Decent stake
3. Corner Liverpool over 10.5. Decent stake but higher than the 2nd one.

So overall I made some good profit. But I never thought that we will not win the match. The reason for taking these corner bets were the odds only. By that time in the first half Castle already had 3 corners and Liverpool had 7. Odd for castle was something like 1.85ish and for Liverpool was 1.77ish. It was a good bargain comparing the match situation.

I had them draws initially and changed them sometime before the games.Now I am completely confused for today games and had predicted many draws but changed them to the stronger teams to win and I go for the community of Superbru choices this round,the last for 2020.

How do you see community choice?

I've seen this too late to take part in the prediction because the match was already over by then. What an unfortunate outcome in this situation with these predictions being made and the right answer turning out to be never.

Only took me 3 seasons to get a yellow cap! Thank you very much  

Congratulations on the probably long awaited victory!

Edit: I misunderstood jeremypwrs message about him taking a turn (for the worst rather than for the better). But you are still tight in there mate!

I have lost my grip on Top 10 but will not give up hope. I think Spurs have let me down so much the past few games and when last night's game was postponed I guess I avoided yet another disappointment;)

And well done most to Hhampuz,,, enjoy the yellow cap and bonus at 30k BTC;)

Made an edit to my post above, sorry:P:P

Too late for the warning for most of us (my new year's was a long time ago already now and celebrated in the office). There were just a few of us so we kind of drank "a little" at work. Nothing critical, we actually even do not have much to do,,, just be around for end-of-world emergencies.

Here is to a long year of good football and good profits to all!

And those tests are all prolly made in Choyna too.  Rofl.

Anyway, I'll keep playing for a couple more weeks and see how I do.  I'll just prolly quit eventually.  Good luck and congrats to this season's bastards.

Anyone actually think Villa have a chance of an upset today? I mean, the way they've been playing recently has been pretty entertaining and goal positive. But United as well seem to be finding a ruthless streak now, killing Wolves in injury time when they should have even lost IMO.

New week, new year, new hope to break into prize spot for me:)

[Trofo]

Anyone actually think Villa have a chance of an upset today?

I think both underdogs have very good chances of causing upsets today. I have chosen scoring draws in the pool for both matches and I feel like at least one favorite is not winning today. Since I can't decide which game will be an upset I placed a bet on both to score on both of them. That way I am only hoping for the goals and don't really care who wins it in the end. Since it is a first day of new year I also hope that the teams will want to provide us with some entertainment

[big_daddy]

The half time is showing a 0-0 on Everton - West Ham, I expected more action tbh 
I have a draw on my ticket and 2:1 on pool

I expected a lot more. Antonio came on just now for West Ham and I hope he does something soon and then Everton has to get Rodriguez on the pitch and we finally get some creativity. But I am already considering my next ticket since this one will be a bust.

The game here is to not loose and if we win by accident - great

So you guys are expecting West Ham to win?

I had Everton to win @ 1 - 0 initially and then in the last minute I changed my mind and picked 2 - 1. It seems a mistake even if Everton wins, this match is not going to be a match of 2 - 1 score. 1 - 0 from both side possible.

Eh same here. I took a few bets all having Everton to win, but yeah with 15 mins left not sure if we're heading for yet another EPL draw. Think this season might see a champion with below 90 points for the first time in years. Not necessarily a bad thing for the game overall, I guess.

@slaman29 I'll be happy if Villa pull off a nice win though, my single ticket on that will more than make up for other lost bets. Damned New Year;)

What's worse than having a barren draw to kick off the year, I Initially put a 1 - 0 win for Everton before later changing it to a 2 - 1 win still for Everton, but neither would matter, I guess. I would prefer West Ham still a very late win here to this draw, tbh.

EDIT: Woah! and out of the blue, Barely 3 minutes later, West Ham are indeed ahead 😆

I could have changed my pick from 1 - 0 to 0 - 1 instead of 2 - 1 meh!

You speak the same as me LOL

Only DeathAngel got some points.

yeah, Everton had some issues with the team, but I did not expected to lose
it was not that bad performance after all, but West Ham had their chances too, and although draw would be better fit for what happened on the pitch, 3 points are going to London, and we are missing another chance to get closer to Liverpool, and CL position at the end of the season
hopefully, will be better in a few days

The Premier League never fails to disappoint when it comes to unexpected results,they started the year with a result most of us was not expecting at all with Everton losing at home.Maybe the players have celebrated a bit more than they should have before the game so that is the cause most probably of the loss of Everton in their home field tonight.

Only one was able to collect 1.5 points.

Next match is up in few minutes. As a Liverpool fan I would not mind Utd to lose of even draw. Villa are not bad at all. But Utd with a win will have same points as Liverpool which sucks of course. I gone with a 2 - 1 win for Utd but I will hope I am wrong and will finish the day without any point.

Edit:
I fucking changed my mind. Utd to draw 1 - 1 😛

More edit:
Changed mind and sticking with 2 - 1.
Damn! why it's so hard!!!! 😠
