I usually don't bet a lot, but after playing ~10 tickets daily during the WC my fingers are a bit itchy when I don't have a ticket that is still live hahah

Welcome to my world. Now I am waiting for summer lull when there isn't any conventional sports and you texting me something like: "What was that you were talking about eSports? have you got some good DOTA tips for today?"

Glad you got something out of yesterday, cryptofrka! I'm not sure what to do with myself when it comes to club betting too... definitely took on way too much exposure at WC, and then way too early. Actually did well for most of the tournament but only catching up with early setbacks.

Bitten by the bug eh?

Would have liked to take a special tonight but probably only up in an hour (2 hours before match) and I'll be out...

Sportsbet hasn't let off their game, new 4-3-free and bet-6 as I posted earlier, and today's special on the EFL cup as well: United to win and under 3.5 goals isn't too bad at 25/10: https://sportsbet.io/sports/sportsbet-specials/daily-specials/efl-cup/matches

I'm of course betting on them to lose

EFL Cup matches were very good to the Manchester sides. Manchester United was 2-0 for the special to win the other day and Manchester City won their match yesterday 3-2 against Liverpool.
Got the match at over 3.75 goals at 2.32x so those were easy to get with both teams after a long break and wanting to get back to the action.

Can't wait until the EPL starts up this weekend again.

I don't think there was a day in the last 10 years when I did not play a ticket. Not always for big money but something has to be wagered every morning.

Have been betting on some dota2 matches lately from ralle14 mention of it on the Sportsbet.io esports thread for tips on these matches.
Won both bets I had placed as singles so he does know his stuff when it comes to dota.

Does anyone ever pay attention to the Bitcoin price specials? It's never hit a single time since it launched last year. Now the current one is 30k by December, which of course will never hit. Even 20k is a dream with 6 days left.

Should we not ask SB to at least raise the odds of that special? That might actually interest more people to bet on it. 1.01x is hardly attractive for such a high target

It has been there for a while and seen it as a placement holder all this time. Because 1.01x isn't really a bet to place on anything other than to gain experience points on a casino to upgrade to a vip level they are offering or to get some sort of reward for reaching those levels.
Maybe they have it there for prosperity purposes at this point.
But it is a promotion for you question is a valid one to ask on here.
As many has said before, there isn't going to a be a santa rally for bitcoin this year as it is Christmas day and it hasn't moved from it's previous price in more than a few weeks now.
Don't believe there will be a boxing day drop this year either for this staleness of the price of bitcoin.

I dont think this is the case though. I mean who in their sane mind would bet on something for 1.01x odds and on top of that, its like 99% chance to lose the bet at this point. Heck yeah, the current btc price is at $16,815 (according to cmc) right now and I wouldnt even want to put my money on 1.01x odds even if the bet is for btc to hit $16,900 by 31 December

At this point, I think sportsbet just want to do some harmless trolling or whatsoever by putting that up

Heh, I think I was one of the "idiots" who placed bets on the very first one, which was something like $100k BTC price by Christmas 2021 (pretty sure that was it). Just for fun, obviously at disadvantaged odds but that was just some delirium-induced bet.

Definitely a placeholder for SB, maybe just to keep the specials section alive and remind themselves of heights yet-to-be-reached.

Troll Steve.

To be fair, I was one of those idiots as well lol for the sake of fun lol ! but back then I think everyone was so hyped about crypto and it was the 4 years bull cycle so anything could have happened at that point but its different story on the current bitcoin specials as there is almost no way that its going to hit 30k unless top 5 corps in the world announce that they are investing in bitcoin

Anyway, EPL is back tomorrow so watch out for some specials. Sportsbet would probably offer some specials for tomorrow

[rdbase]

Your wish was granted @arallmuus !
We have Sportsbet Specials for the EPL being back after a long break from World Cup action once more.


https://sportsbet.io/sports/sportsbet-specials/matches/today

And they are certainly spicy enough I took a rather big bet on one of them all because EPL is back.

[buwaytress]

Damn it..!

I thought I'd be getting home in time today, knew they'd be specials and I'd have taken the corners in each game! Restarts means everyone who's fit is full of energy, almost like 1st game of the season.

Hope you guys managed to throw some hats into the ring.

[darxiaomi]

When you say to yourself.... why i dont put more money in this one... hahahaha.

Anyways good return and also, only a crazy can put more money in this one.

When i bet NF have 5 corners and Manutd have 2, in one moment Manutd have 8 and Nothingham 6, but finally in a run of luck NF reach before the 9 corners and win the race to 9 corners.

[ralle14]

That's still a good win regardless. A few weeks ago I had a similar moment where I won a bet builder and I felt a bit bad for not putting in more.

I also had a good day betting on the Championship and EPL, the odds aren't as high as your bet but I'll take any win at this point after having a bad few days betting in the NBA and NFL.

It took me a while to realize what your bet was all about and I have to admit I've never checked those types of bets live. 9x for NF to get 4 more corners before Man United get 7, that sounds like an amazing odds!

But what happens here if none of the teams get 9 corners are tickets voided?

[darxiaomi]

Hi slaman29, the market its Race to X corners, can be 5 , 7 or 9, i only use that market when i see a team its losing and its behind in numbers of corners if they are the favorite and in sometimes (like this one) when a underdog its more close to the numer to reach and have a really good odds.

The problem with this market its that you mention, if the other team reach before the number you lose, and if no team reach the number also you lose, so you have two form for lose.

But in sometimes you can find really good odds and only in that time i use this market. If not i use the over X corners for X team or total corners in the match.

I hope i be clear in my explanation, because sometimes in "long" explanation my not so good english can make confussions to the reader.

Did you happen to miss today's special @buwaytress ?
Because if you took it you would of got Haaland to score and over 3.5 goals in the Manchester City vs Leeds United @2.40x odds.
Would of made for a very nice prize for your New Year's to celebrate with in the coming days.

Next matches are scheduled for the 30th between Liverpool vs Leicester City and West Ham vs Brentford:

https://sportsbet.io/sports/event/soccer/england/premier-league/west-ham-united-v-brentford-fc-639b25a6532086470c764e8b

Both are late games so you shouldn't miss the Sportsbet Specials for these ones.

I got you 100% no problem man

And yes, that is the main question I had for that market, which is if neither team doesn't reach the number, you also lose. I have looked at them before as I said, but never live, so the odds you mention are super interesting, especially if you look at let's say first half ending, and one team already ahead. Then they might sit back to defend and give other team loads of corners.

I use over corners a lot in Betbuilder  (per team, per half even sometimes)

Nah, wouldn't have been interested in it anyway. 2x for Haaland to score would be value, and on another day, this could have been a 2-0 win, just didn't like the feel of the first half, playing to not really give full service to Haaland.

Would have taken a Leeds super boost any day, usually to my detriment heh

[rdbase]

Have some good amount of matches in the EPL today including one that is going on currently with Manchester United against Wolverhampton.
There is a Special for 5.00x with Crystal Palace, Newcastle and Manchester City to all win.
https://sportsbet.io/sports/sportsbet-specials/matches/today

[ralle14]

I missed that special bet but it is looking good so far with Crystal Palace already going up 1-0 and both Newcastle and City should easily secure their win at home.

On the bright side, there's still another special up and it's for the Arsenal game.

https://sportsbet.io/sharebetslip/0cf2a875-f934-49f0-8993-b8c444ebee5e (Arsenal to win and Both teams to have o2.5 SOTs @3.10)

[buwaytress]

^Great odds, and one I took quickly when I saw it Newcastle and City should be a shoo-in, so I consider this a 5/1 bet on Palace (Zaha anyone to take them to 3-0?). Arsenal one, not sure, though, can't really feel super confident about Brighton getting 3 SOTs.

Hope you guys didn't forget to put in picks on the Bet-6-6... Free chance and your last one for the year to get the 100k USDT. I'd settle big time for the second prize on this one!

New Year will be nice if Arsenal win, and then Liverpool get their next one too as I had a really long acca with just those 2 games left.

[arallmuus]

It was pretty sick for City to not win the game against Everton. I was pretty happy when Haaland scored those goal then Crystal palace scored as well which only left us with Newcastle but then somehow only Crystal Palace ended up winning their game lol

New Year will be nice if Arsenal win, and then Liverpool get their next one too as I had a really long acca with just those 2 games left.

Oh wow, Arsenal won so thats left with only Liverpool on your acca. Liverpool could easily win against Brentford and fantasy indicated that Toney Ivan, their current top scorer has 50% of not playing against Liverpool so it should be fairly easy for Liverpool to secure 3 points.
