This AFCON has been a strange one with almost all matches ending in a 1-0 score line. Atleast 9 out of the 12 played so far. Don't know if anyone caught the match earlier today in the tournament but there was a referee that stopped a match at the 85' minute instead of the full 90'. I wouldn't think this is allowed at any professional soccer match as I have never heard of this being done. But the Tunisia team was wanting it to be redone due to this mistake by the officiating team.
I saw this in the Afcon thread and yes, I think that's pretty ridiculous for any standards, and now his entire nation and even continent will probably hate him for bringing embarassment to them. The match was actually restarted, to play out the full time and injury, I read, but Tunisians refused to go back out to play, Mali waited for them on pitch. I think it's a bit silly to ask for replay, being the loser True, but Mali was on a red card and Tunisia at the time was very close to an equalizer when the referee blew the whistle that early to end the play. From those threads, this referee had incidents which caused his suspension before so this hasn't been the first for him. There was a similar match which had a problem just the day before with the ball needing to be replaced three or four times during the match. This was also an odd thing to see in a professional match.

Yes okay but my point is, if they were so close, when the game restarted, if they really believed they were close, then go and play. I think it's just ridiculous to sit off like a child and refuse to play, then ask for a whole rematch. I've seen ball being replaced 2 or 3 times even in EPL, I think it's no biggie. Again, I personally think the international media loves to overplay the "problems" in Africa tournaments.

Aussie Open finally got the promo posted! https://sportsbet.io/sports/event/tennis/wta/australian-open-women-singles/australian-open-women-singles-2022-61546a34080b0e1dddb4f733And it's my natural pick. Same as before (forgot which tournament) but 1 mbtc on Osaka and you get 0.25 mbtc every time she wins. So I guess it's a nice 4 wins at least I'm sure to get your money back eh? Barteigh's the favourite here but Osaka wasn't the last time I picked her either. 8.15 on boost, sweet odds I think! Speaking of freebets, I got and played my Blackjack free bet from Senegal's Matchday 1 win. Put all 0.2mbtc chips on one blackjack hand. Hit on 12, dealer showed 10. Dealer drew a 9, and stood at 17. 0.4 mbtc added to balance, so I'm only 0.6mbtc down so far... Now waiting to see if I get the Matchday 2 rewards. Another Mane injury time penalty? Ha

Only problem with that bet is that Osaka will quite possibly miss AO this year She forfeited semi final the other day to to abdominal injury. Not sure what the actual injury is but abdominal injuries are usually a bit on lengthy side in my experience. Would not be surprised if she shows up, plays one game (game not match), forfeits and gets the attendance check. Just enough to kill your bet. The other thing is she will play against Barty very soon in the draw if they both progress as expected.

True Trofo. From what I recall she withdrew from the US Open last year due to an injury or just needed the time off to recoup from stress. But still good to see another special(s) for the AO this year on Sportsbet.io and be sure they will change it up a bit due to the No.1 not being there this tournament.

When you're busy with life and come back to bet and get distracted by promos, you throw money away. Hope the bookies underrated her chances and injuries though. And hope she puts the nonsense behind her, and doesn't become Rashford. I mean, I sympathise, but the best way to overcome some problems is to simply just win at your sport. Anyway, we find out in 2 days. Or it's bye bye 1 mbtc (that's not so bad right haha).

I did not read the promo rules before today and I thought we can choose our champion and then I would have gone with somebody else. As it stands, we should at least get first free bet since Osorio should be passable even injured. After that it will get though, maybe one more win against Brengle/Yastremarska but then she will have to play Bencic which could already be too much. And after Bencic there is Barty which is impossible if she is not in top form and she is far from that. If I had to call it now I would say 2 free bet for us, but hopefully she will hit her stride and get better. Grand slams give you a day of rest between matches which helps a lot with taking care of slight injuries and building up your form.

Just to remind everyone, a new 4-3-free happens every AFCON matchday, so don't forget to do it every day! I've already won 2 freebets, one $50 and one $10, pretty "easy" to pick the favourite, a low score and a late card, just the corner count is pretty random in AFCON. Knowing all that I took it as well. I did not read the promo rules before today and I thought we can choose our champion and then I would have gone with somebody else. As it stands, we should at least get first free bet since Osorio should be passable even injured. After that it will get though, maybe one more win against Brengle/Yastremarska but then she will have to play Bencic which could already be too much.

Same here, I opted in almost automatically like I do for all these promos. But I'd have preferred it for men's, and now Djoko's accepted the decision to leave, I guess everyone left is licking their chops. Good luck with your picks, I might end up putting bets on AO on live betting if I manage to sneak in games during work. Aussie time is very weird though, I'll be asleep on the first games last I checked.

Now that we all know the outcome of the decision to not have Djokovic in this years Australian Open due to legal problems, it seems to be different in other leagues with two other large athletes in their respective sports saying they will not be getting vaccinated. But then again they do not need to travel around the world inorder to play their sport. Here is a good article explaining what happened to the tennis sports start with his denial in staying to play in the AO: https://www.marca.com/en/tennis/2022/01/16/61e4959d46163f8a738b45b8.htmlSerbians were not happy with the decision to not let him play but every country has their own set of rules and these athletes need to abide by them because they are guests there afterall. https://twitter.com/BBCWorld/status/1480141077655035905

Serbians like they meat grilled and I hear there is big demand for Kangaroo stakes at the moment there They need to get back at Aussies in some way, why not by eating healthy lean meant. That is a joke going around in these parts at the moment.

My picks have already bowed out of the AO (Anderson and Fognini) so I have nothing more to say about it. One sole match in the EPL today. So who is going a Chelsea win verses a Brighton side which hadn't performed to well in their last match against a roster depleted Crystal Palace? Have a 3-1 correct score going with Lukaku keeping out of the spotlight so to just let the play on the field dictate things instead. edit: Just put in my bets on this match below. You can put in your bets here since the match starts in about 5 hours from now. https://sportsbet.io/sports/event/soccer/england/premier-league/brighton-hove-albion-v-chelsea-fc-61d6ec11033513ea708f89ec

How are you guys doing on the AFC promo? For me not so good, Senegal did top the group but unfortunately, they drew two times in a row making me miss out on a couple of free chips.
On the bright side, got some good wins from the free bet drops. Tempted to take tennis outright but already missed the first match though.

Not good at all for me. Algeria was my pick so one loss and one draw and no goals scored at all is the most annoying thing ever for a team that was supposed to be good. Very tough game next for us is Ivory Coast, I think we need to win it to get through, not so sure, but I'd like to see a free bet from this promo

What was it 36 games without loosing? AFCON has been terrible for my bank in general, hope it ends soon At least my AO pick Osaka is making me some free bets on that promo so I am getting some free bets there.

Since we're all sharing updates... AFCON promo: Outlay 1 mbtc on Senegal. 1 win, turned 0.2 blackjack into 0.4mbtc cash. AO promo: Osaka's second win today, so 0.5mbtc freebets already, the minimum as Trofo said should happen (but I'm sure we can squeeze another!). Freebet dead yesterday, today we shall see. Afcon 4-3-frees: $60 in freebets. All dead I have one AO outright on Tsitsi so still got skin in the game. Medvedev special yesterday was SO close. He needed to win straight sets and 6-0 on first set (ended up 6-1).

AFCON has been terrible for my bank in general, hope it ends soon At least my AO pick Osaka is making me some free bets on that promo so I am getting some free bets there. I didn't even know they had such a long streak of no loss, but was it a lot of wins or a lot of draws? Italy had a similar super streak but they definitely lived up to expectations in EURO. AFCON is a bookie dream I think, very poor odds for favorites and yet people still think they will win. I didn't make tennis promo picks as I didn't see it on my page. Osaka is a favorite I guess? I have one AO outright on Tsitsi so still got skin in the game. Medvedev special yesterday was SO close. He needed to win straight sets and 6-0 on first set (ended up 6-1).
I see him in second round leading 2-1 already, should be fine but all the other big names have also progressed. Good luck

Not really, she came back after long pause cause of her mental issues and then she forfeited last match before AO due to abdominal injury. Barty is first favorite and they will meet each other after the next match if both win. We did not have a choice this time around it was just Osaka for the promo. But as I wrote before even if she is not her best she should win first 2 matches and she did. That is already 2 x 0.25 mBTC back so it offsets some of the risk. Bencic lost so I feel like she has a good chance in next match as well and then it is showdown against Barty. If she wins that she will become first favorite but it will be though. She plays well and moves perfectly so at least we have a fighting chance, worked out better than I expected so far.

On the bright side, got some good wins from the free bet drops. Tempted to take tennis outright but already missed the first match though.
While at the beginning of the tournament it started to look like it was going to be a low scoring one with all those 1-0 scorelines, but now we are getting into it there has been alot more effort from the teams and the goals are flowing into the back of the net. Managed to get a free bet from one of the 4-3-free promo just off by a last second corner to get the $50 usdt. Then it went offline for a while for maintenance. So hadn't put it in since. They are back up now so started putting them in again and for the 6-free too for that chance to get the $1mln usdt prize pool. Why not? As for the one I went for today it looks like a good one! For all teams to score atleast 1 goal at a juicy 5.10x odds so it is a must do for me. Here is the direct link to the promo which is still available for another 40~ minutes left: https://sportsbet.io/sports/sportsbet-specials/daily-specials/africa-cup-of-nations/matches

@rdbase yeah I also thought 5x was really great odds for all teams to score but I no longer trust AFCON and yesterday, me and Trofo got our asses handed to us on a plate. Algeria out, 4 games and not even a single win, so we totally blew our outright bet for zero returns. I didn't make tennis promo picks as I didn't see it on my page. Osaka is a favorite I guess?
Not really, she came back after long pause cause of her mental issues and then she forfeited last match before AO due to abdominal injury. Barty is first favorite and they will meet each other after the next match if both win. We did not have a choice this time around it was just Osaka for the promo.

She plays well and moves perfectly so at least we have a fighting chance, worked out better than I expected so far. I didn't know about it, I always feel like tennis especially injuries and health are the demons for any player, less even than football. Anyway, both Barty and Osaka are going to play in the next hour, already one of my picks is out earlier (Svitolina, very disappointing).

Huge weekend in the sports world for both UFC and the NFL. Have both home sides to win in the NFL @1.50x earlier on today and in the UFC has a heavyweight bout going on tonight. My money is on Ngannou to stay the champion and to amalgamate the interim belt into the one he already has. Two separate threads are below if you are interested in following these sports in the future: UFC - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5330519NFL - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5333903
