I see only four games during this weekend.Is this the round with the lowest number of games(it looks like this in Superbru predictor) or it is going to be merged with other games?How are these games going to be calculated because if this is considered as a full round we all have equal opportunity to get the yellow cap.

I also just realized now there are only 4 games and in fact it seems to include 1 game that I already had a pick from before so I guess they moved that from a previous week to pad this week with an extra one.

Imagine if you got perfect you would only have 12 points from this whole week:)

They're tricky games this round so I'd be surprised if people got more than two scores or even outcomes right. I'm still debating whether to go for all draws for every match. Most of the strongest teams are playing away and I definitely don't trust Spurs right now especially after losing to Arsenal and the stuffing they got in the Champion's League.

I thought about it a lot too, there seems to be more and more draws of late but I changed to a Leeds win and a Brighton win,,, so far glad I did. 5 exact scores already in the pool but I guess 2-1 is a favorite outcome to pick for people.

Spurs losing to arsenal and then to a team who just lost their manager,,, I lost a lot of money on both games and again now wondering which Spurs will show up:(

[BitcoinGirl.Club]

Don't forget about the game tonight. 21 players have still yet to make their pick for it but it seems a handful of people have given up already.

I had my picks few days earlier and I was thinking I had 1 - 2 win for Leeds yesterday but now checking on my account just realized that it was 0 - 1 lol
 
On superbru they do not nave odds anymore, they tried it only for few weeks.

Imagine if you got perfect you would only have 12 points from this whole week:)

Every week after making my picks I tell myself this is the week and I will have my best score (few exact picks with all correct picks) but after ending of each match I find myself regretting why did not I go with x or z combination LOL

[buwaytress]

^ Ah you're right actually, I just realised they stopped showing the odds for them, I thought this was quite useful for me, since I do check odds on the teams I'm less familiar with (but as you can see from the post-match, popular picks seldom ever follow bookie odds). I thought it was an option some time back where they asked if you like gambling (and I selected yes, send me more ads please haha).

Dashboard's been wonky on me for weeks now though... esp when games are live.

Arsenal to continue their run? 22/10 away pretty good value no? Tuning in soon, if I find a good channel I'll stick around. Hoping Blades level and pull off an upset, but also torn because I want City to have the best possible opponents in FA semis...

For me the odds seem to be there for a few weeks then disappear for a week or two and ask you to spend $3 a month for them.  Feels like that's happened a few times now, might be my imagination though.

Another impressive round from tomahawk9 who takes the yellow cap again. Only got a solitary point from the West Ham game and I was lucky in that as they came from 3-nill down. No games until next month now.

I can still see the odds. They're there on the round that has just finished but not on the next one but that's understandable as it doesn't start until the third of next month so they likely won't be offering odds yet. Are you guys using the app as opposed to the desktop as that seems to be missing them (or at least is currently).

[LFC_Bitcoin]

tomahawk is running away with it to be honest. 18 points clear of 2nd place with only 8 match weeks to go. It’s possible he could get caught but I don’t see it tbh. He’s been in the lead for so long & totally deserves 1st place prize if/when he gets it.

[arallmuus]

Im accessing the page from my desktop and there is no odds shown on the page. It used to show the odds though

Definitely not your imagination, It was shown for a week or two as well on mine iirc. Spending $3 for the odds when I can have that for free from flashscore, lame Superbru

He’s been in the lead for so long & totally deserves 1st place prize if/when he gets it.

He is on top since the 5th round, very consistent performance.


So I havent been updating this leaderboard for a while because the leaderboard seems to be getting too long so I will be updating this fun leaderboard every few rounds because it seems to be taking alot of spaces if It is updated every round lol

Out of 48 players in the pool, 23 players have won the Yellow Cap and 6 players have won it twice. 9 more rounds to go until this season ends so even if you feel that you wont get to top ten until the end of the season, try to win the Yellow Cap instead to get freebets from Sportsbet

For Yellow Cap winners, PM Steve to notify him if you win the Yellow Cap because he doesnt seems to be keeping up with the winners so you have to notify him yourself 

[leea-1334]

Well done to tomahawk again! I agree 100% with LFC_Bitcoin,,, I know mathematically you are still catchable but 2 yellow caps and staying in pole position for this long, if anyone gives you the prize now I would not complain (same as Sportsbet already paid out Manchester City EPL champions  many weeks ago)!

For Yellow Cap winners, PM Steve to notify him if you win the Yellow Cap because he doesnt seems to be keeping up with the winners so you have to notify him yourself 

Thank you for all your efforts in keeping this table, so impressive still to see mole up there! I will PM Steve as I indeed have not got my prize yet for this:)

I agree.It is very difficult for the lead to change because it needs tomahawk to get really bad results for the upcoming rounds and the followers to get really good results which is highly unlikely from what I see in the results of every round.

agree, it looks almost impossible to catch him at the moment
he is also good in other pools (La liga for example), so he is good at pools generally, that makes it harder for him to fail in last rounds, and I do not expect that

nevertheless, he had good results, and deserved to win this tournament

Consistency is key but all it takes is one bad week or two and the tables can turn. I would be very impressed if he does manage to hold onto the 1st spot place though especially with only 18 points lead as we can see from the high scorer table that people can get that in one round so all it takes is one bad round to slip up. I guess he just needs to not slip up but he does have a nice buffer which can probably afford him to have one or two even less than average rounds.

They're still there for me:



I've never been asked for payment to see them either. Maybe they only show them in certain regions now? They're not there for the next round but it's far away so that's understandable but I'll keep an eye out for them appearing.

Yeah, now that you point it out, he's really good in other pools too. Tomahawk you should share your betslips too and be a tipster or are you afraid this ruins your luck?

Not showing on mine but I can't really remember if it's always been showing or not, I do remember it being there mainly, even for La Liga which I participate in. They don't ask you to pay but they will send you (for me anyway) ads in my email with offers to join a sportsbook with a freebet or something. Not that I can join any of these books I don't even have a credit card:) Hence I love crypto!

How many players are getting the rewards? Top 10? The 1st post is from 2018 and I'm lazy to search the thread.

If anyone has the rewards distribution at hand, please share so we know where we're at.

I'm like 7 points from top 10, maybe reachable with some luck.

The figures in the op are correct. The thread is just updated with the new info every season. Crazy to think 0.1 is now worth over £4k. Not bad for a £40 fee for whoever wins it. I guess even the 6th-10th place consolation pries are now pretty decent at 0.01 each.

That 0.01 now is 560 USD so I think it is a really good prize considering we have called this 6th to 10th a consolation prize.There are still some yellow caps for grab even for persons which have no possibility to get to the top 10.

[cryptofrka]

Thanks! I thought the rewards might be significant due to huge BTC rise since we started but 0.01 BTC is not a consolation prize anymore

Same applies to the 0.005 BTC side bets I made at the beginning thinking 'why not, it's like 50$'. Luckily, I will probably win one and lose one there.

There is Superbru Premium for $2.39 / month though not sure if it will include the odds but yeah Its not really an important feature. I can just look it up at flashscore

Same applies to the 0.005 BTC side bets I made at the beginning thinking 'why not, it's like 50$'.

Its no longer 5mbtc freebets though. I won The Yellow Cap on Round 27 and Steve gave me 1mbtc freebets, it was worth around $50 more or less

Luckily, I will probably win one and lose one there.

You are on 16th and less than 10 points to get into top 10. All you need is get one good round and you will be on the top 10, goodluck though

What region are you guys in? Is gambling legal there? Maybe there's some regional restrictions and they removed the odds/gambling stuff.

Yeah, I was aware of that. I thought about buying it back in the beginning for the pool because I think it there's options to remove the default picks and also not being able to see users scores once theirs are locked in, but I think they only accept card payments and my name was already filled in with the name I signed up which is Hilarious Andco and you don't seem to be able to edit it so the payment would obviously not go through and I wouldn't want to potentially expose my name to the pool/site anyway.

One of the side bet (2.5 mBTC) is against me and you are winning it and same with Trofo. Both of you are going to win it against me LOL

1st 0.1

I think no one is going to beat tomahawk9. There are still doubt about who will be on top 10 but first place is nearly guaranteed.

Do you guys think fortebet with 17.50 points behind has a chance to beat tomahawk9? I doubt. tomahawk9 is consistent all through the season.
