Denmark vs Finland ended 0-1, and not a single person in the pool predicted Finland to win. Stuff happens 

At least I get more time to hopefully close the gap between my 1pts and the top bracket's 4-4.5pts. C'mon Belgium shut out Russia!

A real bad start for me I have mistakenly put Italy to lose against Turkey yesterday 2-1 instead of them winning and Lukaku late goal made correct prediction fall.
And no one predicted Finland to win because its their first ever major competition they participate in.
Denmark almost losing Eriksen for good didn't help, the moral of players have been touched I hope we will get to see Eriksen back in the pitch soon after those horrifying couple of minutes.

I'm starting to get frustrated with Superbru as I had England vs Croatia 2-1 yesterday, but I changed it to 1-1 a few minutes ago, locked it to see what everyone else is picking (after making sure that the confirmation screen read 1-1) and now when I go to the leaderboards I see that my old 2-1 pick is still locked in there with no way to change it. I'm suspecting connection lag never actually updated the score on its servers.

I guess I'll just commit with 2-1 anyway now that I see that's what most of you are going along with, surprised to see how few people are backing a 1-1 draw. But please just be careful when changing your Superbru picks and make sure you give them ~10 minutes for them to save before you lock them.

Superbru is usually updating those changes instantly. You just have to get used to doing all that in the mornings. After last game of the day ends there is always rush of people to the site and it gets to the brink of breaking down.

That is especially bad on Sunday evening during regular season. When premier league, La liga and Serie A all finish their match days. No point in even trying then.

Finally I hit the first perfect score of the tournament,great feeling for me,exactly 1-0 for England and it ended just like that way.I am waiting Binance to release my frozen funds to send to hilariousandco tonight or a bit earlier.


Edit: Just sent my payment.Can't wait to join the pool and see how everyone is doing.

[cryptonesiac]

Totally missed that we also went for the UEFA one...

well, no point in posting it now since we had quite some matches already. I think Belgium is going to win by the way. Go Belgium!

[LFC_Bitcoin]

If there's only around ten then it'll likely just be the first place, but if there's 20-30 users it will likely be top 5, and if we get 30-50 I may do top ten like we are currently doing for the Premier League pool.

Just had a little check on Superbru.

27 of us in the pool, nice. Makes it more interesting having 5 paid spots. I lose interest if i have no chance of winning money

[swogerino]

So far only yesterday games were surprise results in the EURO,at least for me.The pool is going well in term of points,from 9th to 19th just 2 points of difference.Portugal had a difficult game tonight but they managed to score 3 goals in last 10 minutes or so.They were a bit lucky in the first goal which gave them the three points.I choose Germany for tonight but they are losing up to now with 25 minutes to go.Overall a good EURO so far.

I've never been so nervous for a first game in an Euro. The fact that I'm french and that I predicted 1-0 for France helped . I didn't know if I should be happy or angry about the 2 goals refused for offside.

I am wondering, why we did not see the first revoked goal with the analysis, and why VAR was not consulted?
we watched in PL and Champions League where every millimetre was measured. it seems to me that the VAR in EURO is used much less than we are used to.

There are definitely some new rules implemented for VAR and referees in general. Lots of challenges are not deemed as fouls and it seems to me that referees got the order to let the play continue as much as possible. Handballs are not penalties any more unless you do something really stupid and obviously intentional. If Italy hasn't gotten a single penalty in that game against Turkey, there is slim chances to see much penalties at this tournament.

obviously, there will be less pressure to watch VAR. I didn't follow well where all the matches will be played, not all stadiums may have VAR capability. However, it is a European championship and some quality should exist.
I certainly think Mbappe's goal had to be checked, it is very possible that it is a regular goal. fortunately, it was not decisive for the result.

That should not be a problem. There are mobile VAR rooms built inside truck which UEFA already owns and uses on Champions Leagues matches when home team does not have their own.

I am reasonably sure we have VAR on every game in EURO.

Offcourse there is VAR in every game of EURO. It would be difficult to imagine different situation. I think all stadiums have VAR capability, after all, it's UEFA A category stadiums. But I read somewhere that in all games VAR referees are working from UEFA office in Switzerland.

[hilariousandco]

Who am I missing from the following list below? A few people didn't submit them in time so there will be a few missing. Instead of combining the points together I'll probably just offer a smaller consolation prize to the winner of the UEFA one since a handful of people missed out.

I got Sweden correct score today yet I am extremely mad at myself because I had Croatia 1-1 all the time and then I changed to Croatia 2-0 just 5 minutes before the game started.I started reading some newspaper articles and saw everyone was predicting an easy win for Croatia so I changed based on those opinions.Lesson learned for me,only believe yourself.I am happy though for the performance of these two last days so far bringing me up 7 positions from 21 to 14th so far.I have England 2-0 but I think they will win a narrow one at 1-0 in this game based on what I saw in the first half.

Don't get mad at yourself... Remember at the end, the bookie is always right (save for a massive clusterfuck performance like what England's guilty of) and is more reliable than the free prediction sites on the internet.

It's actually how I predicted 1-0, 1-1, and 2-0, but in that third case the bookies had no idea in advance about how badly players would be arranged (why didn't Jadon Sancho come on?  )


Edit:

I see that Playbetr is sponsoring this pool now, any idea roughly how much prize money we're expected to win?

They put $1000 into the pot. As I said above there's still a few people who need to pay so waiting for those before I decide on the prizes.

Italy have made a lot of changes in their squad.
from their previous game they only kept Jorginho, Bonucci and donnaruma.
They guarenteed qualification no wonder that they want to rest some of their top11 starting.

EDIT
when i saw this lineup i changed it from 2-0 to 1-0 and nailed it. Got to watch out for these types of matches like Netherlands and Belgium they already guaranteed reaching next stage and they will more likely to rotate players

[LFC_Bitcoin]

How reliable is Superbru’s score counting? They haven’t given me my slam point for 6-7 correct outcomes in round 3.



I looked at the pool & others with 6 correct outcomes in round 3 so far have 1 slam point but I don’t & I have SEVEN correct outcomes so far.

I’ve emailed them any way, see what happens.

1 point could be the difference between a paid finish & not.

For example below is hayhay in round 3. He has six correct outcomes but has his 1 slam point. I don’t but I have SEVEN correct outcomes. The game rules stipulate 6-7 correct outcomes = 1 slam point.



Edit - Here’s Mosala too, also with his slam point

[Hhampuz]

Isn't it games in a row with the correct outcome @LFC_Bitcoin?

That's what I thought at least, maybe I'm wrong but looking at your matches that one wrong outcome may have screwed you out of it.

EDIT; Nvm after looking at your updated post. That is strange!
