Bitcointalk IPL Prediction Pool & Discussion

Anyone betting today. On sportsbet, now odd for Delhi is 2.10 and for Chennai, it's 1.77, it's quite confusing for me. Chennai is obviously a good pick but Delhi showed a great performance in their last match for which I'm quite confused to bet for Chennai. What do you think guys?

I can assure that you can bet on chennai since the toss already done but DL looks to bat first on turning pitch so CSK playing with same spin attack they can have better chance of winning.

I agree. I bet on Chennai and they are doing really well restricting Delhi to a modest total thanks to quality bowling by Bravo and the spinners. CSK all the way at the moment.

I have my chips on CSK too . When it comes to bowling , Imran is the holder of purple cap and 4 of 5 contenders right now are from CSK.  That tells you something isn't it?
The selection of CSK.  I am impressed by Chahar , good attitude .

Looks like we won our bets. CSK is doing everything right at present and they are the team to beat once again for nth time as expected. Delhi have improved a lot over time though and their current lineup is great.

Finally CSK won,looks like not much people interested on today's match but trust me CSK is the real king of IPL tournament they are just perfect at every department of cricket with the best capitain.

I did bet for Delhi yesterday.I knew that it was a bad decision. I didn't bet a big amount though. However, CSK played quite a long match although they could have won the match earlier. Dehli wasn't able to get much run. I think I will not make any wild guess anymore.

I agree. They have an awesome batting, bowling, wicketkeeping and fielding lineup along with one of the best captains in the history of cricket which is why I am expecting CSK to reach the top 4 once again this year. They are seriously something else.

Looking at the match was just wondering it should have being over way before last over considering the Chennai still had won by 6 wickets. Either the Delhi bowlers bowled extremely well and made it difficult for the Chennai batsman to score runs or Chennai just took the game at ease and landed to win the match by just couple of balls to spare.

CSK did not want to take any unnecessary risk. The number ball was larger then the number of runs needed so why do take risk? CSK is playing good cricket especially the captaincy of Dhoni made CSK unbeatable. He knows how to use his bowlers and when to use them.

Anyway, I also had some in play bet for CSK I was ready with more money to bet for them but the price was not moving for them :-)


What do you guys think about today's match?

KKR or KXIP will smile after the match?

I think I will pick KKR.

We've recently published a couple of blog articles written by our cricket betting experts on the IPL, taking a look at the teams, the odds, betting strategies, etc that might come in useful for members of the pool!

A team may win against Chennai but not against Dhoni, lol, kidding.
Will you bet today Royse? I am betting for KXIP because I am having 2.22 odd for Punjab despite 1.70 for KKR. In addition, KXIP has a good batting line up and I think they will dominate today since you know Eden is always in favor of batsman. I am expecting a huge score if KXIP bat first.

Thanks Ronnie for joining the pool and the love for Cricket. I just noticed you in superbru and good to have you there. I know the prize is very little to get motivated to pick regularly however it's the fun that count most.

I will update the OP.

Cheers :-)

Well it's true. Dhoni is the key individual for Chennai. Without Dhoni Chennai will be another average team in my opinion.

I am not sure if I will. I am favouring KKR but not sure if I will bet for them. I have some on going bet with Australia. So, betting on KKR vs KXIP will depends on the outcome of this match however if this was CSK I would bet without any doubt LOL

EDIT:
I forget to mention. Guys, join the pool: https://www.superbru.com/ipl/pool.php?p=12014392

It's fun and some free BTC. If we make it to minimum 5 then we will get more funds. So the prize won't be that bad too, I think. Join and pick the matches. Let's accelerate the fun a bit more.

KKR are clobbering Punjab at the moment and I feel that they may post a score close to 220. Rana is an awesome batsman and played an epic innings. I bet on Punjab and I still think they can pull this off thanks to their batting lineup.

[JSRAW]

Shami bowled wonderful spell and clean bowled the Russell but he was very unlucky because the ball was called of No-ball due to powerplay rules lol now Russell hitting sixes

Russell is taking away the game from KXIP. He did the same in the last match. It sixes and fours from Russell. Very entertaining to watch.

5 balls left and run is 211
Russell is on strike.

He was supposed to out lol but the powerplay rule saved him and KKR

and see he ended up making 48 runs within 17 balls.

It's a part of the game. Russell was just lucky.

By the way @Haunebu,  they stopped at 218. Unfortunately Russell was caught on the boundary line or 225+ was also achievable

Just got a call from One of my friends, he made a bigggg amount predicting one no ball in the first inning. lucky bastard hahaha

this is first instance in IPL history " power play -dismissal on no ball - and arguably first in cricket history as well.

It was a huge total to chase it down and I am not sure KXIP will make it today because when something over 200 to chase it will make psychological barrier to the chasing team and it may result into early wickets.

Your friend is a lucky one. I do not see such kind of market by the way. Which sportsbook is that, can you ask him?

It's not impossible though. However I would expect them to fight.

Underground betting is big market. don't know about odds but he did make around 2.5 Lakh.

it's kinda pro level betting. bets placed on every ball, run, over, white ball, no ball, runs according to the power play-per over, on players, even toss lol

Well that interesting. They are huge then. Better than these online sportbooks? And the amount seems large as well. Do this guys have no idea about online platforms or it'[s easier for them to bet physically.
