I have to remember to come by this pool more often, but you know, ever since realising how shitty I am here, I don't really come back and bet any more, although, I was really tempted to add Lazio and Atalanta to my parlays for 1H 1x2 (1.8x each), and am angry as lazio is 2-1 ahead damn, and 2-2 now after the restart ha!

Just really hard to follow the Covid news for Serie A which has also affected my parlays (especially cause I stupidly used freebets on them).

GL with tonight;)

Alrighty, Genoa and Udinese hold on to that 1-1 draw to give a few of us (6) an exact score, i was close with Sassuolo (2-2) but they got their first home win in the last 6, so this was a little bit disappointing, there goes my 10/10...lol maybe some other time/pool.

Not many surprises so far, interesting to see half of the pool had a draw on BEN/FIO match, Benevento has been the worst team in Serie A this past month imo...

Anyway, not many rounds left either, we get one more next week than there the euro qualifiers and we are left with only 10 legs after that...you better make that run, 3rd place is wide open.

It's really not getting any better for me in the pool, Just a few weeks ago, 1st position seemed to be on the horizon, but now I'm barely 5th and with the hope of dropping further down the table.

But I'm not giving up, 7/10 exact score for 10 consecutive rounds will surely change things, you know!

[buwaytress]

Thanks Roma. I think I saw someone somewhere talk about Parma stats and all that, but letting in 2 goals every game in a stretch (10 games is it?) and then suddenly killing Roma at home today, screwed me to bad on my bets. Seriously, might as well bet against Juventus tonight the way things are going haha (but not worth it 7/1 I think).

Good thing you went with easy achievable result When you do that 10 consecutive 7/10 exact scores then you can bring it up to let's say 9/10 for a final few games if needed.

This seems like a solid round points wise for most of us. That Roma blunder was a top shocker but other games went more or less the expected route.

[morvillz7z]

First off congrats to Inter and their fans for winning the scudetto, it's now official, no way they lose 9pts lead with a relatively easy remaining schedule.

Anyway, i totally forgot that we had two extra (postponed) matches added to this round, and i still can't go 10/12 for three slam points, thanks to Milan...

But I'm not giving up, 7/10 exact score for 10 consecutive rounds will surely change things, you know!

How much do you charge per exact score, any spots left in your VIP group? 

I think tyKiwanuka holds the record for most exact scores in our pool for a single round with 6, pretty crazy, eh?

[buwaytress]

^ I think in the very first season, in the very first round of EPL pool on Superbru, someone got six exact scores, and a few outcomes correct. It made me think it was so easy but hey, everything changed afterwards;)

Anyway, I'm putting money on Benevento today to win a 18/1. Anyone else think it's a stupid bet?

[morvillz7z]

Four matches in today and zero btts, when was the last time that ever happened in Serie A? lol

Utter bs round for me in terms of points, but i won't stress too much about it, esp when luck is not my side...

The two most bummiest teams getting three points this week. Spezia with two extremely lucky scores vs. half a dozen missed chances by Cagliari and of course, VAR'd in the 94th min for offside.

Don't even get me started with Benevento, but at least someone is making money off Juve's misery, @buwaytress good job, what a last couple of weeks for their fans though. 

I also had both Torino and Udinese matches at 1-1 draw, which wasn't far away, Lazio keeping a clean sheet....please.

[buwaytress]

Thanks morvillz7z, haha, yeah, I'm really pleased with myself. Took two even bets on Sheffield and Benevento, and very very happy to catch 18/1 odds when most bookies were doing 14/1 at most. Juventus really finding it difficult to score (8 shots, the away team managed only 1 shot but that was all they needed haha). Now thanks to this win I'm hugely in profit so can afford to throw even more money away elsewhere =p

Now I will hopefully not jinx myself with other bets!

[Harkorede]

I'm finishing the best in the round with 14 points, I only failed to score points from two fixtures Napoli vs Roma (where I went with a 2-2 draw) and then, of course Juventus!

Congratulations to buwaytress with that win, Only him could have saw that coming 😊

Damn you had a good round. Before this round I was dreaming of catching up to third place and making a bit more difference towards you and then I make 3 points and you make 14.

No matter I am just where I like to be, in striking distance of top positions so I can storm the table in the last few rounds

[buwaytress]

^ Yeah I've resigned myself to the fact that I'll just be piddling along in these leagues on Superbru, but as long as I make the odd big bet on winning terms, I'm definitely okay with just participating in here;)

It's strange to see myself at 9/11 positions, but I really don't mind if bankroll on betting is still in positive. This was a really tough season so far though, but I'm sure for everyone else too!

Two games next matchday for Old Lady. 1 must lose =p

[morvillz7z]

Wild round with tons of goals, 3.4 per game to be exact! I hope you guys took advantage of btts as it was present 8/10, Cagliari and Bologna the only two teams that couldn't score, though watching the highlights from Cagliari's match, they wasted quite a lot of good chances to net one.

Juventus losing to Benevento before the pause, they were on the brick of losing against yet another bottom-of-the-table team, things not going well for them after CL fiasco, there will be changes coming this summer.

Trofo with a nice comeback round so far, making ground on both Harkorede and hahay for the third place, i wish Roma didn't screw another exact score for me with a late-game blunder...ehh

...be sure to check Daniele Verde's goal for Spezia if you haven't already 

[buwaytress]

^nice Spezia goal form Verde indeed! So much fun, wish I scored something like that but I hardly tried in hundreds of games, the only ones I actually connected with are as clearances haha;)

BTTS continues to be the odds of choice for Serie A, I actually missed out on a BTTS parlay yesterday because of Valladolid haha but am already placing a slightly off-kilter acca for tomorrow's set of games Inter-Sassuolo and Juve-Napoli for a simple 3/1. Good?

[buwaytress]

BTTS on both games right? But I'm super tempted to just go for a Napoli boost and get 4/1. BTTS at HT is very, very odds value too.

Also, not related but since I'm sponsoring this pool (haha) feel free to join this free promo for freebets and Arsenal jerseys ok? Love the bookie so don't mind promoting them. Real easy to get in on the action as well!

[morvillz7z]

I can't believe i was given an exact score in the 90th minute (Juve/Napoli), those late goals usually go against me like 99% of the time, Chiellini my man, appreciate the help bro!

Fasten your seat-belts boys, single-digit rounds left, the end is just around the corner. I'm so glad i got 6-7 points on bigdaddy this round; they'll come in handy when all is said and done.

Ol' trusty btts, i hope you didn't take Napoli, that powerhouse called Crotone scored three against them this weekend and it was too important of a game for Juventus, basically their season on the line. I had a little something off those two games, wasn't sure if Sassuolo would score with so many missing players so i went with Inter and O2.5 instead of btts:

Aww yiss, I thought it was actually going to be a dud but hey, how many times has Chiellini saved everyone's scrawny ass, eh? I didn't take Napoli after all, no, by the time I wanted to, odds had become 35/10 which wasn't good enough for me. Like you said, Ronaldo and co aren't even fighting for the title anymore, but for top 4.

Going to be a nice tight finish for them and for our pool;)

[buwaytress]

I'm staying away tonight, but already have both Milan teams on an early parlay, AND have just added Inter HT win to my daily 5-leg accas, but that's all am doing tonight (unless some other promo or boost comes up).

Not too late to put in late picks if anyone forgot or wants to give some of the prize winners a run for their money;)

No more BTTS tonight right? Some slight regret looking at the Crotone scoreline ha!

[morvillz7z]

Those mid-table-nothing-to-play-for teams (Udinese, Bologna, Sampdoria) gonna be tough to cap from here on, be very cautious with them. My advice is to avoid them at all costs in your tickets, Udinese and Torino ruined a mid-stake parlay with Real and Benfica, had the O1.5.  it's fascinating Torino managed to keep a clean sheet even with their back-up goalkeeper.  I've no stats in front of me but these low-scoring matches in Serie A are so uncommon, it hurts when you accidentally bump into one.

[LTU_btc]

I got 9 of 10 outcomes correctly this round on Superbru. Didn't had such successful round for a long time. And guess what, it wasn't even enough to get yellow cap. Well, I had just one exact prediction.
But almost everything in this round was so predictable. Only Torino win against Udinese was something unexpected.
Anyway, I don't have many things to play for this season. I'm not going to finish last and I don't pretend to get into prize money. So, now I'm just playing for fun .
