See what happens after getting all the praise for last week's yellow cap?

0 points for getting absolute nothing. Of course, still early games but hate that I was going to pick a draw for Friday until I decided to take some risks to catch hahay. Well done on the 3-pointers to most of you.

Poor Juventus. They were the favourites too. Not sure why.

I had them too, I was even expecting a flawless win. I couldn't watch the game, but I was certain BTTS would playout and that's what I've got on a parlay.

I'm also with 0 point from the four fixtures played so far, but I'm not surprised since nobody from the pool has scored points from more than one fixture.

Though game week so far, seems like this will be one of the lower scoring ones and every point will count. I got lucky with the correct score from the first game and hopefully Inter will bring some more points to us.

Did not expect Juve to loose, they just looked like they were getting close to the form that is expected from Juve and then happened Chelsea in CL and this game. Back to the drawing board for them I guess.

yeah, tough game week, although in Calcio each one is tough for me
did not expect lose from Juventus, or how to put it, Atalanta is also mediocre team this season, and that probably proves that whole Calcio is low quality, since they are fourth

still cannot believe that Roma lost 6:1 from Bodo/Glimt, and they could not even win in re-match, misery

Yeah and it didn't get much better, although I suppose Inter win was a benefit for everyone, one more correct outcome for the slam points A small bonus to get exact points, but that wasn't exactly a hard result to predict!

Don't forget, everyone, next picks are actually in less than 3 days so make sure you do your rounds early as the first ones are for Tuesday 30 Nov. It's going to be hectic the entire December for all major leagues.

Serie A has some more games today and I did my chores on time so you guys have a new free bet challenge as well. Only games from Serie A since there are boring cup games in Spain on schedule during the week.

My favorite for the week is Sassuolo - Napoli game, should be very entertaining and my bet on both to score is already placed. If we don't see a couple of goals in this one I think I'll take a pause from football betting

Speaking of hectic, I wonder how Trofo is going to put up all of the predictions with some game weeks happening in between the weekends? Maybe it is wiser to put the challenges up early boss pool manager,,, who knows maybe even one week in advance the whole December

Something tells me Christmas table is going to look very different. I will back Juventus all the way!!

[buwaytress]

Nice going on the predictions challenge update man. I saw 3/4 early picks as soon as it went up, it does seem like people have it on alert now haha.

Sassuolo were featured heavily in early season accas for me but I've actually started to wind down on betting them. They were never really good for me anyway and then after internationals, I found I've not rediscovered my appetite, favourites in all leagues have been pretty much on point but I could be tempted to think heavy rotations in December adds some flavour and spice to results.

But too early for that to happen so I'm actually Napoli in for about 18/10 in my picks for the week!

I cannot really describe how much I do not like Sassuolo (trying to avoid word hate )
they are booging me in the pool, when booking, really cannot recall placed bet on them that was successful, so I would avoid this one as well, but think that Napoli is going to win, should be with goals, but 0:2 would not surprise me at all

with all said, Sassuolo is going to win probably, just to mess up with me

I can't get them correct in the pool but they are golden for me when betting. I think they scored and conceded a goal in every game as long as I can remember so my both to score bets are coming in every time.

Napoli disappointed me against Lazio, they could have let one goal in  but at least I saw where it is going by the halftime and cashed out my multi bet for some profits.

[Harkorede]

I'm actually not getting better in the pool, but still trying to be in sight is something I'm not giving up on, lol. Here is to the early kickoff we've got I probably would have missed the deadline, If I had not made my picks late into the night yesterday.

Atalanta already making it rain after 13 minutes with 2 goals, 3-1 was my pick but I hope Venezia would be able to get a goal for themselves too.

[slaman29]

Something is seriously wrong with Roma man, agh! I made a big multibet, and Roma was the SMALLEST odds but I thought come on for sure they can rack an easy win especially if the odds are so low away, then it means they are the huge favorites.

But guess what, they prove me wrong again. Goodbye to top 4 man.

[buwaytress]

^Yeah welcome to the world of painful accas. Always have to thank the favourites for letting you lose. Do it long enough and you'll even get accas that lose every leg, and had you taken all the underdogs, would easily be 1000x. I just wish I always had the balls to go long like that.

P.S. Since it's probably going to be temporary, I want to brag here before the night's games start that I'm top in the pool woohoo! A lot of catching up to do with hahay for so long, but results all went my way this week. I'll enjoy my moment up here for a while.

yeah, Mo's magic is already gone, obviously, I think that this will be his one and only season in eternal city of Rome
regarding others, I somehow have put Fiorentina as draw, and expected them to win, but other results are pretty much expected

today, Torino is already up two goals against Empoli

[Trofo]

Are you guys watching Lazio - Udinese? I doubt it since United - Arsenal are playing but this game more than deserves it. We have everything from hot Italian blood to lots of goals and some of them were really master pieces, especially one from Milnkovic-Savic. Lazio came back from 2:0 and 3:1 in record time to 3:3 and then Patric got very stupid second yellow / red card. Don't know what to expect till the end here.

And of course we get a game like that when I take Lazio ML instead of usual BTS.

Roma is one of teams that I avoid betting on this season. They didn't started bad, but now they're not consistent at all. When they lost 6:1 in Europe, I said to myself - that's enough for me.
I would say same thing about other team from Rome - Lazio. They don't look good this season. I made bet on them against Udinese and guess what, result is 3:3 with 20 minutes remaining and Lazio with 10 men on the pitch.
@casperBGD, wouldn't be surprised if he will be sacked during season. But probably as always happens with Mou, he would get a lot of money if such thing would happen.

At least I'm not alone, bro .

I really hope you were not hit as bad as me. This was really a series of misfortune events for me. Lazio lost the lead in 99th minute and killed 3 otherwise winning tickets for me. About 0.08BTC in total. Rant on. That one other game that is not green is won but has not been graded yet.
 


First I wanted to use insurance and waited to play the ticket. First game was starting at 12:00 and I knew I am getting insurance at 11:58, of course I did not click on that square and I can't cash out since there is eSport on ticket. Later on Lazio leads 4:3 and I want to defend the tickets and can't since that is the precise moment when my otherwise very reliable mobile network provider decided to have problems. I did not have a single connection problem in last 10 years for reference. And of course the goal happens when it happened from very stupid foul.

So instead of winning nice amount of cash I am not even getting a 4 mBTC free bet, at least I have managed to reset the insurance and can start using it from early morning tomorrow 

[rdbase]

Those past three games in this league was killer if you had the favorites on your parlays as Trofo had shown above in his.
2-2 and 4-4 draws in matches from yesterday into today.
I don't think anyone except one person got the 2-2 for one of those matches.
Usually so many goals cause excitement in these type of league plays but all these did were cause anger and frustration watching how it all unfolded.

[buwaytress]

Yikes Trofo and LTU_btc... I actually saw the game for a while at 2-2 but only now checking back late I saw it went on to 4-4, with the equaliser scored at 90+9 minutes phew! hahay retook 1st spot, but anyone watching that game as a neutral would have enjoyed it all the way. United/Arsenal wasn't too bad too actually, except other than the goals, there wasn't really much else to cheer. Auba really looks like he's lost his touch though, seriously.

Two hugely entertaining games tomorrow, and if I'm lucky I find a good stream for the Napoli-Atalanta one. BTTS on all games tomorrow or Salernitana too poor? Milan looking their weakest ever...

... I've always enjoyed the midweek fixtures...

The last two midweek fixtures turned into two yellow caps for me, need more of those...

Surprised to see that Atalanta didn't have many backers in our pool, Napoli with their talisman Insigne out, one of their best midfielders and in-form guys Fabian Ruiz also out due to injury, and Spalletti serving a two-game suspension for his red card against Sassuolo. A lot of things were pointing towards a positive outcome for the visiting team, just saying...

Now, who watched Roma and Inter match?

https://twitter.com/toribiotome/status/1467202513065713677

Watching it live i thought it was a goal, Brozovic thought it was a goal, livescoring apps marked it a goal (temporarily)...hilarious moment nonetheless.

Watched both of those until my bets passed. I had Inter to win and they were destroying Roma, watched just first half since there was no chance Roma would get anything from that game unless Inter gets 3 red cards or something like that.

Napoli - Atalanta was a great game but I again watched just first half since i had both to score and that passed quickly. Napoli was in solid form and I thought they will manage to get a draw tonight despite missing Insigne and Ruiz.

I was thinking between Napoli win and draw. I missed these news about Napoli, well, my fault for not making homework . Seems that now Atalant got in very good rhytm.
And WTF was that? Epic moment . Even commentators realised it was no goal just from 2nd replay. It instantly remind me this ghost goal from Bundesliga:
