That free bet challenge was intended as community thing and nothing is set in stone. If you guys have requests feel free to let me know.
how about Total Corners instead of yellow cards for one of the next challenges? let's change it up a bit ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Sure, but do a proper job and give me some margins which will work for all the games. 3 choices as usual, ie under 8, 8-11, 12 and more. Not playing corners often so I don't have a feel for it and I am too lazy do do research ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Edit: your wish will be granted from next challenge, I was in a hurry today and did not feel like mixing the things up ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Actually it's not only you, I'm sure many of the participants in this pool get the same result too. I didn't check all the results, but while I personally get a lot of reds but my position on the board doesn't change, at least I can assume they got bad results like I did too. The next match, Barcelona will play at home against Alaves and it looks like it will be a good opportunity for Barcelona to get points. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Yes, I already saw that this round was unsuccessful for everyone, and on average each of us scored no more than 5 points, but whatever it is, this is definitely the worst round for me. But not the worst round in terms of prizes, as I managed to predict the play of Atletico in such a way that I got a free bet! ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FLzT4VpM.png&t=665&c=WCkntT0MseFqHA)

If Buwaytress was the only user with double digits points, then I guess it shows how terribly the results have been for those backing the favorites teams.
We've got an early kickoff for tomorrow so don't forget to put your picks in. There are still a lot of tricky to pick fixtures this week as well, Betis vs Atletico, Valencia vs Villarreal is another one.

I was pretty sure I backed most of the favourites too actually, at least, calling the tight games on the home team, or the away team that should have been the favourite. Sociedad away win was pretty obvious too (even though I totally backed Celta to win on the previous match, Aspas and Mina have been pretty slow to get off the mark). Getting two big results from 2 draws also hurts me internally as I HATE predicting draws but yeah, have been more disciplined with it this season across all leagues... see, even a draw would have put anyone ahead as none of us thought Atletico would get any result other than a win.

I only predict draws if I have a parallel multi bet that I don’t want to hedge but would upset me to lose. Although partly this is also hedging, but in this case I get nothing but points. As you can see in the La Liga pool, this does not work very well for me, since in just a few rounds I dropped almost 10 positions (but got some bitcoins). Although in the Serie A pool, this tactic works a little better, but still here I lost about 10 easy points when everyone got them. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

Another disappointing result for Barcelona, but our game wasn't that bad as we had recently. It's diffciult to expect big changes in squad from interim coach, especially considering that we have so many injured players. Now it's most importang thing to survive somehow until international break, especially in Champions league next week and maybe after break we will have new coach already. Our youngsters didn't played bad, but lac of experience in some moments was obvious. And I think it was one of rare games where L. De jong would be useful. And finally, Dest as winger is awful.

1-1 Barcelona, mid table during Halloween 🎃 scary stuff, folks 👻 on the bright side, 1 point could mean a lot in the fight for an europa league spot 😂🤣 Sure, but do a proper job and give me some margins which will work for all the games. 3 choices as usual, ie under 8, 8-11, 12 and more. Not playing corners often so I don't have a feel for it and I am too lazy do do research ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) i like the margins, maybe change the 8-11 to 9-11 and we're good to go?

Another disappointing result overall but I would say I enjoyed watching the young lads play, the future might not be bad after all. Gavi and Nico were really impressive and I wonder how they'd fare if being able to play under a more versatile manager ? Aguero getting injured again is another bad news, meaning Barcelona most likely wouldn't be able to depend on his fitness, the injury list for Barcelona is getting bigger, Fati who's barely got back and Dembele who has never got back 🤔

But still, actually predicting draws goes against my instinct. And yet again, Barca proved that the draws would have been a good strategy in these tight games (imagine saying Barca-Alaves would be tight just a season ago!). 1-1 Barcelona, mid table during Halloween 🎃 scary stuff, folks 👻
on the bright side, 1 point could mean a lot in the fight for an europa league spot 😂🤣
And hey, winning THAT with a young team would actually be pretty good, and the prize money isn't something to ignore anyway ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Yeah Dembele is the saddest of all those names for me, other than Fati who lost almost one whole season in this most important stage of his development.
Aguero's injury seems to be compounded too by some heart issue, so we really shouldn't play him again and just assume he's not going to be available.
Good thing our youngsters are playing without fear.

Watched the livescore text updates for Getafe-Espanyol. Only 3 goals but 11 yellow cards in the whole game and get this: 17 corners in the game.
Don't know how often this happens in La Liga but I can't even remember the last time I saw 10 cards without a red... This would have been a massive 31-point Soccer Blackjack heh.
P.S. nice exact hit rdbase.

Rayo let me down, or to put it the other way, I believed that they will be able to win tonight, since they were able to win over Barca obviously win over Barca was enough for Rayo to take a break
one more match in this round, Granada is playing, Maximiano on goal, should be one more 0:0 edit: Sanchez just scored, 0:1

Granda destroyed Levante in the end, really did not see that one coming, was expecting a scoring draw like 1:1. Even had a late ticket with both to score where all other games passed in the end but Levante ruined my combo. Did not watch the match but I am blaming Soldado, he should still be good enough to put one goal past Granada. We continue with CL matches tomorrow, moment of truth for Barca. They need a win against Kyiv for a fighting chance of progressing trough.

Small bump and info that new challenge is up. Be careful guys we have corners this time around instead of cards as per @tomahawk9 wish. I am really psyched a bout Sevilla derby this weekend so that is the game from La Liga. Did not want to feature Milan again but had to since it is Milan derby ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Barca barely winning yesterday but 3 points are only thing that will be remembered from that game.

I'll actually be unable to see any of these games as I'll be away watching Arsenal instead =D
A LOT of hassle to travel to UK now, and I actually am the easiest. I saw how impossibly annoying it is for people from other lists and/or having different vaccination issues. It really is like they don't want anyone to come visit.
Barca survive with Fati (again). But just caught sight of news of Dembele injured (again). I didn't even realise he was ever back, thought he's permanently injured. Feel really sad for these guys.

Yeah, I am crying rivers here for poor you, that has to travel to England to watch Arsenal, what a punishment ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Just kidding, I had very mixed feelings when the promo came out. Yes I would love to go watch Arsenal live with all the expenses covered by Sportsbet, but traveling is such PITA at the moment. Then you have high probability of mandatory quarantine and who can afford to lose 10 days, and more importantly how explain it at work?

yeah, feel sorry for you that you have to travel now (joking) have a nice time there, and bring back victory for Arsenal, this is Sportsbet derby, obviously
regarding league, beside city derby, Valencia plays Atletico, hopefully that could finish without a lose, although Valencia will have another season to forget, as seems at the moment
Barca is going to Vigo, it is usually not that easy for Barca to win there, and interesting statistics is that Barca wins every fourth match, when the odds are around 2 (now @2.1)

Then you have high probability of mandatory quarantine and who can afford to lose 10 days, and more importantly how explain it at work? Heh heh yeah I love crying on first world problems! To be 100% honest also, I do wish this comes in different circumstances -- and as I said, it was a bit difficult with all the PITA things to do, some of them new to me also, but I'm aware it's much more difficult for a lot of others. I'm "lucky" to be in a country with all the things recognised abroad but my family back home all can't travel if they wanted to, it's really bad over there. And yeah, for me I work remote so worse case scenario I am inconvenienced but for my partner if we somehow end up with quarantine it would be quite difficult to work it out for her boss. Anyway, promise to share pictures, and will be "sad" I can't watch other games. I'll cry into the beers at Emirates...

@buwaytress have a safe trip! Barca is going to Vigo, it is usually not that easy for Barca to win there, and interesting statistics is that Barca wins every fourth match, when the odds are around 2 (now @2.1)
moneyline x2 odds? so weird seeing that number next to the FC Barcelona, in a league game no less, as the saying goes "how the mighty have fallen" Barca are pretty bad right now, but Celta Vigo are 10x worse despite the favorable H2H at home that you mentioned, so i wouldn't blame anyone going for Barca to win in their bet slips, that's gonna be my pick in our pool talking about Barcelona, Xavi close to joining. Al Sadd confirmed he's leaving, just need the official announcement from the catalan club...Barca fans, are you excited?
