With Nottingham and Wolves both losing, it is now mathematically impossible for Chelsea to be relegated even if they lose all of their remaining games. I can't believe that I'm typing this, but YEAH, we're staying u bitch. 

I was just coming in here to say that but I should have known you'd be among the first to be counting the points. Since they're guaranteed a stay, I hope the continue to gift us with memories, because I'm betting every game against them as long as odds are above 5/1 heh.

Happy to keep you, really, just won't be the same you know

Yes, me too, at least I'm getting paid for all the heartbreak they've inflicted on me this season, ive been betting against my club for the last four games its the worst feelings ever placing bets on your club to lose while deep down you want them to win and let your money burn and sometimes when they're leading you just don't know how to feel,happened to me against Brighton, immediately Gallagher scored that early goal i celebrated then i realized my money is Brighton to win 

Our gifts will continue as long as Lampard is still around; he is unlikely to win a single game until his contract expires; every Chelsea game is worth betting a small sum on.

When i was seeing the Brighton Wolves game i cant believe what its happening. Seems like Wolves completly forget how to defend and Brighton was so sharp on ofensive, if you watch the game you know 6-0 was a good result for wolves also, the game can be end like 8-0 easily.

In the forest game, i really dont see the game, but come on Forest, you cant give up that win if you want to reamin in Premier League.

City is going to have an easy win against Fullham which means today will be the day, they are going to take the first place officially with having one more match in hand than Arsenal. This is where City is different from any other team. No matter how they start their season, what progress they have in the mid season, at the end of the season they figure out how to lead the league and have the title.

In the forest game, i really dont see the game, but come on Forest, you cant give up that win if you want to reamin in Premier League.

They still have four matches to play. Leicester and Everton have five each to go. Leeds have five more to go too. If we consider Southampton is already a gone and out of equation, it's understandable. But between Forest, Leicester, Everton and Leeds finding two is still a hard job.

Honestly, when Richarlison equalised, I wasn't even surprised. Don't think he even touched the ball, the bounce took everyone by surprise. My bet was on a half-time lead anyway so Liverpool ensured that, even with great difficulty... then Jota comes up with the goods a minute later.

It's only 5 more games. Newcastle and/or United dropping 7 points is too much to ask for, is it? Villa was our best chance for United to slip up and it didn't happen. Brighton, even Chelsea, come on Ige, do your magic!

[darxiaomi]

What a fucking game!!!.

We need to check the health of our Liverpool fan here LFC_Bitcoin, we need to know if he is alive.

We can agree its the game of the season no?. Sadly for me when i see the 3-0 and after the 3-1 mantained until 75 minute i stop seeing the game, and when i check the scores i see 4-3!! i cant believe what happen.

About Kloop injury how many games its gonna lose that speed forward?

It was not very clear but when he took off the shirt, I was sure that he touched it or he would not be so much confident.

I had 3 - 1 on the pool and until the 75th minutes it looked like everything was going well. No team seems to find the back of the net and it was not looking that anything is going to happen too but then suddenly Son surprised everyone and everything started to change.

At the end the match was exciting, filled with last moment drama. Richarlison thought he was going to be the hero for Tottenham but the mistake from the Tottenham defense surely stole 3 the points. Though we won, but I think it was fair to end by 3 - 3.

[swogerino]

I had a bet with 22 odds that I got it right and I am proud of it,I was only waiting Liverpool who made it difficult to win but my only regret is betting very little money as I did not expect to win a bet with over 22 odds,I didn't know I am that smart  to win such bets.

On the pool side it is getting very very hot in the 12th to 5th place as the only fight for place changes is there and it is going strong week after week,I am lucky to be doing well with just one point less than the leader of this round while we have games until Wednesday if I am not mistaken,so tons of possible changes,I only hope to end in top 10 for these 4 weeks remaining,whatever the case I will be in the prize spots as last prize spot is some over 20 points behind me,so for me this was the best pool ever after trying a couple of times without any success.

If I wasn't a Liverpool fan, I'd really enjoy their games this season. Even when they're 3-0 up, they are still crap enough to make the game interesting.

As a fan you hate to see this, yes, it is exciting and yes, it feels good to win in the last seconds but bloody hell - this is not how a top team performs.

I have said it too many times already, but I can't wait for this season to end. My nerves are at a breaking point.

Dude shamelessly removed his jersey after being on 0033; I've never understood this Richarlison of a guy; he's without a doubt the flop of the season for a many reasons. It's insane to come back from 3-0 down to 3-3 in 90 minutes only to blow it a few seconds later; Spur are the true bottle job.

It's only 5 more games. Newcastle and/or United dropping 7 points is too much to ask for, is it? Villa was our best chance for United to slip up and it didn't happen. Brighton, even Chelsea, come on Ige, do your magic!

With this midfield and defense, forget about going to the Champions League and focus on the Europa League. Even if Manchester United and Newcastle drop points, Liverpool is unlikely to pick up all the necessary points from their remaining games. The Manchester United-Chelsea game is a derby, and I cannot promise that we will drop any points there, but we are likely to drop 6 points before that game, and if there is a team that can stop United, it is Brighton.

I also had 3-1 in the pool and really interesting things happened later on.    Liverpool couldn't stay solid in defense which gave Tottenham hope to make a comeback. I didn't like Robertson in this match because he had some role in Tottenham's two goals by making simple mistakes. Maybe Tottenham are really bad in defense these days but they are still good at benefiting from goal chances.

I wasn't expecting Jota to use that chance by himself there to be honest. It was a big responsibility he took while his angle was also not much good. But he still hunted Forster. If Lloris wasn't injured maybe he wouldn't have conceded a goal there.

When they got 3-3 I screamed and shouted at what the f Liverpool was doing but I loved that Jota moment which made the result 4-3,I had Liverpool in at least 3 tickets to win,2 of which I already won and I thought that when they were leading 3-1 in the first half and up to the 68th minute with the same result I thought this was a sure win and never expected a Tottenham comeback which honestly in their recent games suck big time,they conceded 10 goals in just 2 games,so they do not deserve any European spots for next season at all for me.

Anyway the action is not finished,we get to see some more Premier League action in this month as it will be packed because it is the end of the season and we have still 4 full weeks left to be playing here which have in place 120 points in the pool still.

Wow! Nice bet! I can't say anything about the second choice, but betting on Bournemouth vs. Leeds and Sassuolo vs. Empoli in one multi-bet is bold (at least I would not be sure of these results even by 40-50% in each case).
I would like to know what emotions you experienced (if you watched the game) when you saw how Liverpool first lost a 3-goal advantage and then still managed to win

You should be happy that this time you got the maximum win, but in the future you should bet more optimally.

Thanks for the explanation, @KTChampions!

From now on I'm betting with 2.00+ odds if I win a freebet again. Although I personally think that the "average" comes in play only when many thousands of bets are made, I don't see the reason for not betting in a more favourable way than I was doing it before. It simply cannot do any harm, right?

Nice win. Instead of LTC if you would stake BTC then you could make a lot LOL but looking at the selection it was understandable that the risk was high. So overall you did good.

2.00, 2.25 are some average odds and anyone can leverage it if they have good knowledge about the team and the recent trend of a league. But when it's about multi and picking up more teams add more risks. One mistake can ruin everything for you. I once was lucky to win a slip of 8 folds and stake was around £20. If I remember correctly then all were from a PL single round.

I was watching the game and the emotions were big enough but because of the bet as that was a really small amount to be betting 0.001 LTC just to try my gut assumption which was right,they were big enough because of how things precipitated from Liverpool completely dominating the game to letting Tottenham draw which was totally unpredictable as until 68th minute the result was 3-1.I think that is why Premier League is so great because it is also unpredictable as a lot of surprise results happen here,luckily Liverpool didn't let us down and won the game with that final moment with Jota.I was happy about winning my bet but I was also sad as why put so little money to it.

I have said it too many times already, but I can't wait for this season to end. My nerves are at a breaking point.

Apparently, Trent loved it. I do love a last-gasp winner too, but it has to happen as an underdog, really, and coming from behind. This was to get three points we threw away. My nerves have long gone, by the way. Don't know when it happened but I've been more or less calm whatever the result. This must be what they call acceptance. Haha

With this midfield and defense, forget about going to the Champions League and focus on the Europa League. Even if Manchester United and Newcastle drop points, Liverpool is unlikely to pick up all the necessary points from their remaining games. The Manchester United-Chelsea game is a derby, and I cannot promise that we will drop any points there, but we are likely to drop 6 points before that game, and if there is a team that can stop United, it is Brighton.

Can't argue with that, Brighton and Newcastle deserve those spots far more than Liverpool or United -- on the pure basis of the football they play and the desire you see on the pitch. The only thing is experience and luck, and both the Reds seem to know how to do it at the last.

Still, I'd prefer to see everything line up for the final game. Be a shame if everything was done and dusted before then.

I think 20-30 bets will be enough to feel the difference in the distance, but you are right, the distance is an important parameter and if you win free bets not so often, then it is better to play more reliably.

I was watching the game and the emotions were big enough but because of the bet as that was a really small amount to be betting 0.001 LTC just to try my gut assumption which was right,they were big enough because of how things precipitated from Liverpool completely dominating the game to letting Tottenham draw which was totally unpredictable as until 68th minute the result was 3-1.I think that is why Premier League is so great because it is also unpredictable as a lot of surprise results happen here,luckily Liverpool didn't let us down and won the game with that final moment with Jota.I was happy about winning my bet but I was also sad as why put so little money to it.

If I'm making a "serious" bet, I prefer not to watch the game because I don't like to be nervous  And I do not think that you should regret the missed opportunity - after all, when you made a bet, nothing was clear and you could easily lose the money you bet.

[Ulven]

Damn it, Everton kicked me in the butt after I was very close to winning a big ticket. Leicester couldn't maintain the result in their favor after being ahead 2-1, which was the result I predicted in the pool. Tomorrow we have a match between Arsenal and Chelsea on their ground. I think they need to win and reconcile with the fans after the big loss they suffered against City last week. Can Ramsdale keep a clean sheet?

[CLS63]

I couldn't check my Superbru account because of being outside all day and couldn't make a prediction on the match. This was very sad for me as I thought this match would end up with a draw. Leicester's missing a penalty while it was 2-1 and a 2-2 final score reminded me of the West Ham - Arsenal match. A similar scenario happened there as well after Saka's missing a penalty.

I agree with you, if I had to pick any team to represent the English league in the UEFA Champions League, it would be Manchester City, Liverpool, and Chelsea. I wouldn't want Brighton or Newcastle to be participating in that competition anytime soon, we don't want another Leicester and Tottenham CL story, I don't trust Arsenal or Manchester United either, but both clubs are likely to make it anyways then back to the Europa after few games. same story.
