[KTChampions]

Need to pay attention in this thread too, KTChampions reminds me from time to time, but glad I chose well to avoid Sevilla+Valencia from a long time ago (they are still in some tickets but not important ones).

It's impossible to understand the mindset of teams, and how that translates into performance. Mallorca with absolutely nothing to play for except Conference but is that really so important for them? Now they get the better of Valencia, who are suddenly back in danger territory.

Now it absolutely messes with Barca game -- odds should even improve after this eh KTChampions? Big money opportunity or trap?

At the moment, the quotes for the game between Barcelona and Mallorca are as follows:

1.34 - 5.10 - 9.80

If you take an simplr win, then of course Mallorca's victory seems like an easy choice (although such a bet will pay off in the long run). but if we assume that Barcelona in the last game of the season in front of its fans will try, then you can take -1 and here the coefficient is more attractive - 1.83. The only thing that makes me doubt is that Real Madrid just ruined my multibet precisely by not being able to overcome such a handicap.

We have total of 138 mBTC in the pool this season and rewards will be given out for following positions:
1. Place - 60 mBTC
2. Place - 35 mBTC
3. Place - 19 mBTC (fees are paid from this prize)
4. Place - 12 mBTC
5. Place - 6 mBTC

You all see the tables and it is already quite certain that first 5 people at the pool at this moment will get the prizes. I would love to get your BTC addresses ASAP. That way I can pay out the rewards faster. I decided to try and payout everything that is possible as soon as it is possible.

So far it seems highest yellow cap overall is mine:

I would kindly ask if somebody has the time to double check this. Was really surprised to find out I have solid chance of getting something from this pool when I had such miserable season.

Being one of the proud... at the bottom of the table, I'm surprised to have this position, I don't know if I'm very bad or those guys at the top are very good.

Hey!! And well, be careful, there is one round left

Being one of the proud... at the bottom of the table, I'm surprised to have this position, I don't know if I'm very bad or those guys at the top are very good.  

Thanks for double checking.

To be exact there is still 2 rounds left, I am just asking at this point since I hate it when the league finishes and I can't pay out for week or more because one player did not sent me an address. Usually everybody sends addresses in few hours and want their money ASAP but there is always one that is late. Just the way things work

[slaman29]

Was it last season there was one guy who was late several months because he disappeared? Or something like that. And I believe this round we don't have anything to worry about from that because the absent guy tomahawk9 is not in any winning position in any pool... still hope he's fine.

6 points from prizes, seems so far away, and all the top guys are doing so well, but at least these last 2 weeks is going to be super exciting.

Thank you Rodrygo

[casperBGD]

what a round, we failed to win over relegated Espanyol, and have to wait for last round to secure place in La Liga next year
Getafe, Cadiz won their matches, so they are close to safety
Celta is playing Barca at home in last week and should be most endangered, but we saw how that could be an advantage in the end, Valladolid vs Getafe will be a game to watch, Almeria has to search for points against relegated Espanyol, we are visiting Betis last round

tough to watch after nervous play at Goodison, not an easy Sunday at all

But you send Espanyol to Segunda with this draw. Won't miss them at all. But it was strange to see Valencia players celebrating this result like they won trophy. Barca made perfect farewell to Busquets, Alba and Camp Nou stadium. End of era and I have to say that both our legends had great Last Dance today.
Real Sociedad got their spot in Champions league, despite loss to Atletico. WTF Elche is doing, they won against Athletic, who are still fighting for spot in Conference league. It's 4th game in a row for Elche without defeat, where they've been all season?

It is a pity that there is no prize for the one who was able to win the yellow cap with the minimum number of points  
It seems to me that my victory with 9.5 points is something very funny  

R24 mar./2023 KTChampions 9.5

Except me, no one could go below even 11 points.

Congratulations to cls63 - in the last round we won the yellow cap

Espanyol don't deserve to go down, if we forget the points they dropped. I will kind of miss them though, Catalan derby is usually great highlights no matter what, if we ignore how bad they were hehe. But they came right back up after last relegation, so I guess expect to see them again.

Elche, I know right?

Anyway, I think 10 points between me and 5th spot is impossible to break for next and final round. Well done KTChampions

At least I got prize from 1 pool. But it was only enough to cover fees for that pol lol

Bring on next season!!

[casperBGD]

agree here, but it is a step to avoid relegation, not finished yet, and even maybe this draw is worse for us, since Espanyol would fight Almeria in last round, and as it is, Almeria will probably have an easy win
we have to get a point in Sevilla, against Betis

a bit off-topic, but overall, looking at my teams fights to avoid relegation this week, it is a second season in a row that Everton is finishing season with fans entering the pitch (will be another big fine, it is good that is not Calcio, maybe they could decide to strip some points and send us down (looking at Juventus case)), and celebrating as we won some trophies, so no bitter taste of this season left, hopefully Valencia will finish in same manner

I was playing 6 pools this season and tracked it a bit, was quite poor season by my standards and only got 2nd place in FPL pool. However that was enough to more than double my initial fees for all pools. I also received about 300$ in free bets for various yellow caps but have no idea if I converted any of them.

Still hoping to get highest yellow cap here to boost it even more. Really mad how i slipped Premier League pool in last half of the season or how I was absolutely shit in CL.

I took part in 4 pools and was generally successful (by winning the Champions League pool), I don't remember how many times I won the yellow cap, but 5 times for sure. The only pool from which I had rather negative emotions was Serie A. I refused the Bundesliga pool because I don’t like randomness (except for Bayern and Dortmund everything is random there), but Serie A seems to have surpassed all other leagues this season in the paradoxical results.

I can relate, my season also was similar. From all pools I only managed to get into Top 10 in Champions league and very unexpected for me finished 5th in Bundesliga. But with all Yellow caps and free bets I received more than I paid. That's proof that even if you're far from prize spots, it's still worth to continue playing as you still can win something. And I managed to convert some free bets into money.

Espanyol don't deserve to go down, if we forget the points they dropped. I will kind of miss them though, Catalan derby is usually great highlights no matter what, if we ignore how bad they were hehe. But they came right back up after last relegation, so I guess expect to see them again.

I have no warm feelings towards Espanyol, they're playing ugly football, especially when it comes to Catalan derby. But yeah, they probably will be main favorites in Segunda.
BTW, we already know promoted teams, it's Granada and Las Palmas. While Levante, Alaves, Eibar and Albacete will fight in playoffs for last spot. Would like to see comeback of Levante

[CLS63]

Except me, no one could go below even 11 points.

Congratulations to cls63 - in the last round we won the yellow cap  

Thank you very much. I also congratulate you. I couldn't allocate much time to the forum for the last 2 weeks due to being very busy. While entering the final week in the pool everyone is still very close to each other. I hope I can manage to keep the 4th place on the final week. 

[slaman29]

Granada played quite well in the times they were up, for the games I saw in that season if I can recall properly, they were even top of La Liga for a very brief time early on (how to forget they beat us when Messi was still here).

This was seen as the start of Barca's decline, and of Spanish football in general and that was also a few years after Leicester and then Lille in France, and Atletico later, it all made so everyone was dreaming of revolucion in Europe but it's 2023 and Barca won, City, won, Bayern won, PSG won, business as usual lol

@Trofo yeah actually now you mentioned it I think I got loads of freebets in total, but I didn't count how much from yellow cap, for sure I don't think I won any, but won some of the other nonpool freebets, but all in all, I think I deposited a few times and didn't withdraw, (I checked tx history I only withdrew to pay for pool fees lol). So it's probably my worst season in many years. Which is weird because Barca did well, I think I lost mainly because of extreme bad results in World Cup (Spain, and then I remember Argentina terrible decicion to put all on their first game) and Champions League.

Wow! I just noticed that you and I have an equal number of points and you are one position higher than me due to additional indicators  I don't even know who will be lucky in the last round - there is too much randomness in games where teams have no motivation. I hope that at least I will not fall out of the prize-winning places 

[slaman29]

Good luck to everyone! I am in 6th place, with 10 whole points needed to catch up for prizes, I don't think it's possible, but I'll give it my best shot.

No bets at all for me today even though I'm super tempted but it's so scary with meaningless games, I'd rather just enjoy the final day.

This is supposed to be my favorite league but my results and betting have not gone the same way, it serves to prove that you shouldn't mix betting with prediction

Bad season for me too, but covered some loses with yellow caps.
Very interesting last round. I don't remember situation when on last round team in 13th place wouldn't be safe from relegation. I even went against Barcelona in the pool for the first time this season, it's must win game for Celta.
In earlier slot we will have 5 teams fighting for one last spot in Conference league. Made some bets for last round, mainly BTTS markets, ML looks too risky.

[slaman29]

Guess you made a nice win LTU_btc I knew it was a good idea to stay away from La Liga betting. Would have lost on Barca, would have lost on Sevilla, even would have lost on Valencia, Atletico, etc lol

You are right I don't think it has ever been so competitive for relegation, at least I don't remember, but partly because so many unexpected fights (Sevilla Valencia mainly, but even Celta as you said).

All in all I don't think Espanyol deserved it but we all talked about it and they got what they got.

Valladolid will feel bad, 40 points brings you safety in all the other big leagues (Italy lowest 31!).

Edit: Well done leea1334!!! I couldn't make my 10 points gap count, but you got 1st place in the final day of the season. Amazing!

[Trofo]

Hey guys send me your BTC addresses ASAP, I want to pay out this stuff sooner than later  

We have total of 138 mBTC in the pool this season and rewards will be given out for following positions:
1. Place - Leea-1334 - 60 mBTC - I have addy
2. Place - Saint-loup - 35 mBTC
3. Place - KTChampions - 19 mBTC (fees are paid from this prize) - I have addy
4. Place - icopress - 12 mBTC
5. Place - CLS63 - 6 mBTC
Highest overall yellow cap - Trofo - 6 mBTC

Congrats to all the winners, some people cleaning in both of my pools. Lucky bastards
