Sportsbet.io's English Premier League Football Pool Discussion Thread

[hilariousetc]

@hilarious I do recall draws getting me a lot of points last season in Superbru and generally I know I should also pick more draws as upsets. Judging from my performance on betting (as I hardly ever pick draws) last season anyway, I would have had a LOT more winnings picking draws or handicaps when the underdog I bet on go for draws -- but the gambler in me wants the whole bag is the problem!

Well I got one of the draws right and with the correct score. The only shame is about 13 others also picked that   .

Man City are currently 2-0 down to Norwich  . Hope they lose as this will give Liverpool a huge boost with taking them 5 points clear. Only 30 mins played so far so City can easily recover but I'm hoping they don't even if it costs me the points on the outcome  .

Edit: City have clawed one back. Praying for VAR  .

Hope Norwich hold out to win this game but it looks like that City goal on the stroke of HT will give them confidence to come back & win.

Any way fuck that - LFC_Bitcoin @LFC earlier today

Oh, nice. Are you from Liverpool or just visiting?

Yeah, Newcastle are a tough, tough opponent, with or without Rafa to guide them. Again no offence to Steve B, but he doesn't belong in this era I have to say if he refuses to change his approach.

Newcastle were horrible even with Rafa but he managed to hide it. They are one of my strong picks to drop to Championship this season.

Norwich 3:1 Man City
I don't watch this match, so, can somebody explain wtf is going on ? Norwich stats - 3 shots on target and all of them were converted to goals.

Saw the picture in WO!
City down 3 - 2 (Rodri just scored or it was 3 - 1). If City lose 3 points today then we are well ahead by 5 points (total 15 so far). I hope you enjoyed your time in the ground.

More power to Liverpool!

Edit:
It's official now! City lost 3 points 🤪

[cryptofrka]

Really did not expect this. Liverpool 5 points ahead of City and 7 ahead of others after 5 games, incredible.

Straight wins since March last year.

I live an hour away but go very regularly

Oh, nice. I was there a few times, did some european away games as well, but not being from England makes it kinda hard.

Enjoy while it lasts, this is by far our best team I watched - and seems Klopp will not extend after his contract runs out.

Losing vs Norwich cost Pep a whole lot.  That's one must win match out.  Now they'll be hoping LFC would lose one too which is so unlikely.

Coutinho must be saying...  'Damn I blew it!'.

They can hope whatever they want but I do not see much competition from other clubs for Liverpool. LFC should be winning their upcoming matches. Let's go one by one. Next match against Chelsea. Away for Liverpool, will not be an easy one however Liverpool should win the match.

The 5 - 2 win against Wolves for Chelsea should give some boost for them in the next match.

Liverpool could have a premier league loss(or consecutive draws) on the horizon too, don't be too naive, Lol. I mean haven't we seen it happen before ?

Offside: Looks like a few people still got 1.5 points off Everton's lose... Hehehe 

[cryptofrka]

Watford came back 2-0 down against Arsenal.. It is amazing how that team will never learn how to defend.

They can be 5-0 up 30 min to go and you still have a chance against them.

[buwaytress]

Well, hasn't been a good week and I did say I'd change my Sunday outcomes if I didn't do well on Saturday but after getting 5.5 points, I thought ah well, might as well.

So I changed to Everton, but see what happens? Bournemouth slight upset. Now I switched back scores to Watford to beat Arsenal =D

Anyway, I really am beginning to think it pays to just keep betting on the expected outcomes and trying to get scores right.

I'm the only one who predicted Norwich but even that daring move only earned me 1.5 points. Not worth it to keep trying for 1.5 points against City! But the 25/1 bet? Always worth it.

Enjoy the next game at Chelski, LFC! But first, Napoli! We are a very different team this season so we will be better prepared in Naples I think =)

The promotion on sportsbet.io for the scored goal of Watford against Arsenal has been credited
There is another that coud be interesting for regular players https://sportsbet.io/promotions/streak-challenge
I’m sure that most of our pool members are betting on English Premier League beside the bct pool

Never used the site before(I don't even have an account on there) but I've been seeing their positive promotions for BTC as a whole which is very impressive, I must admit. I'd be on the lookout, If their odds are not too different. I've been looking for an alternative to 1xbet following various accusations against them as well as my recent encounter with them (I wasn't scammed though) but I can tell they are bitter losers.

[big_daddy]

Never used the site before [...]

I can only confirm positive experience

[hilariousetc]

Fucking Arsenal. Looked like my 1-2 was going to come in and then Watford equalised in the 81st minute. Some shocking sunday league defensive errors over the weekend from big teams that cost both Man City and Arsenal points.

I was watching the highlights of the Watford/Arsenal game and thought I was tripping when I saw the Bitcoin BTC logo on their sleeves:



I knew they were sponsored by sportsbet but the sleeves are a new addition. They should probably put bitcoin underneath it as I'm sure a lot of people will be wondering what it is but at least it will pique people's interest.

I have an exact result on ht, and then Arsenal happened to me.
Also, Wolves, Everton and Crystal Palace are a big mystery for me this season.

[buwaytress]

David Luiz saved me. I went for a right upset at 2-1 home win but I'm happy the penalty also cost most of you points (did anyone pick a draw I should have checked).

@hilarious ah yeah I wondered if it was going to be prominent but it actually does look real visible the BTC on the sleeve. Or is it just because we're all just so accustomed to seeing it there?

Apparently Mia Khalifa was all IG-ing it up at the Watford Bitcoin box.

One more game to make my week not-so-shitty. Go Aston Villa =p

I never said it's not gonna happen.  What I said was that it's highly unlikely Liverpool would lose those easy must win fixtures.

But we'll see...  It all becomes a bit clearer starting December.
