This man => Cryptopreneurbrainboss is just winning pot A week after week. He can't be getting away with it every match day 

I'll trade that for the pot B because my picks are just going against me every game round. Got another -5% again and I think that's like the fourth time  which is so annoying. Just wish I don't repeat the same fate next week. I might be going with the less goals this time around but hoping not to get disappointed again. I see the problem is that I'm going more with goals instead of with which teams gets the victory. The odds are every tempting with the scorelines than with the actual victory so at times I can't help it but go for the odds in attempt to catch up. Best of luck to everyone for the second leg.

At a certain number of points, for example 200 (I think many will manage to reach this level), minus 5 percent will be quite painful, I thought about it. I think at some point you'll have to allocate 2 points to make 2 picks with the lowest odds (like 1.1-1.2) to guarantee yourself protection from a penalty. And with the remaining 8 you can make two full-fledged risky picks.

The other day i was thinking about the reduction of 5% for not collecting any good result in PotB and thinked like you.

But until that moment is not so hard to recive that punishment. I think is very manageable.

As someone that underperforms almost every week in PotB, I can relate. Prior to playing, my guess was that potA will be more harder to progress but I've found more success there than in PotB and as the competition progresses, I feel it would get even tougher from here.

UCL upsets + the search for high odds selections so I can catch up have been the biggest reasons for my poor performance but I believe it is the only way to catch up.

One  or more good weeks with 20-40+ points will go a long way.

Congratulations to the winners of MD9, Cryptopreneurbrainboss and arallmuus!

Received the free bets code from @icopress already ! thanks !

Right everyone, the second leg of playoffs start next week and we've put made the questions available now.

Couldn't fix or tweak the way we really wanted to put the selections, so in MD10 Moneyline outrights won't be available -- instead, you'll all get 1x2 + BTTS. Not super ideal, but on the other hand, some excellent odds are on offer on this round. Each Match also has 2 questions (we couldn't easily group everything under 1 question, might be possible in latter MDs. It may be we continue this way or we fix end of season, we'll see. Every change we do risks upending the already stable backend, so we can only experiment and implement so much. That's what happens with free labour haha.

This is going to be pretty interesting. Either some people are going to score big from here onward or it might ruin more people into getting -5% lol

anyway this bet is kinda vague

Code:

Atalanta leads after 15'

I guess this mean Atalanta has to score before 15' ?

-snip

Hmmm   It seems like you want to win everywhere!

Been running hot on some pool but Im still quite far on paid places in pot B though. I need to be getting quite decent points for 2-3 more rounds to catch up with you so you can relax for now  

As for pot A, I could totally say that I sucks on Superbru for some reason lol

You mean that saving two points on a safe pick doesn't outweigh the potential gains of risking them? Maybe yes, since 2, for example, multiplied by 2.5 gives 5, which compensates for the loss of 5% of 100. And if the coefficient is higher than 2.5, then the picture becomes even more attractive in favor of risk.

The issue is the new format, which turned the group stage into a circus.

And if the coefficient is higher than 2.5, then the picture becomes even more attractive in favor of risk.

Even at 100 points, 5% penalty means -5 points. So 1 stake to win even 1 point is feels to me like 6 points. As in, you are choosing a 95 or 101 points tally. I think it's very attractive. Or maybe I'm just trying to get more people to go for "safe" picks?

Code:

Sorry, yes, that's using the bookie's language, but I've now just changed it to "Atalanta leads at 15' ". It just means that after 15 minutes (or when the clock shows 15:00, Atalanta is in the lead (so yeah, they have to score more than Brugge). Funny enough, this market is no longer available. A similar market is 0-10 minutes over 0.5 = 3.8.

There is logic in this, the value that each individual point gives in this case is difficult to overestimate. In order not to lose 5 points, we "pay" with the lost profit from one point. In the end, it is still profitable.

By the way, here's some interesting food for thought: we've already played out 90 points (9 game days). If you take into account the active participants, there are 35 of them. And of them, only 7 have a balance greater than or equal to 90. It turns out that in order to be among the leaders, you always need to bet literally on odds of 1.01

How do you like my approach to convincing people of the correctness of "safe" bets? 

[BABY SHOES]

You had more higher-scoring MDs than BABY SHOES, so you won the freebet =)

So I won this Match Day freebet? Where to go to claim this free bet?

I'm really bad at Pot A, and I started getting decent points in Pot B just a few rounds ago. So far the risk is worth it, but there are still a lot of games ahead (without the point reduction like in Pot A) so everyone has a chance.

In Pot A many predictions were wrong... Maybe in Pot B I'll go back to betting 4 points to get a lot of points back because honestly if a few points are at stake it feels less satisfied.

And, judging on raw percentage of 7 out of 35, that means 1 in 5 people actually hit those numbers on safe bets or top 20% percentile of active players! If you think about it, that's not a bad rate of return vs odds...

I know I'm not doing the math justice here but if you think about how there could be 17 MDs... the safe strategy actually sounds legitimate.

Sorry, no, you tied with arallmuus, but he scored better on the tiebreaker (you can read my full post). Was still a great attempt in a low scoring round, so well done!

Freebets are usually given out quite quickly, they reach out to you and send you a bonus code.

In fact, my theory about "safe" bets is wrong  (most likely) because at the top, as I understand it, are only those who took increased risk. What will happen by the last day? Will safe picks be able to gradually bypass high risk bets? I don't really know, at the moment I see that in general bookmakers always milk the crowd, but not the other way around

Some huge games this week, surely Real Madrid will finish the job and dispose of Man City. I know Man City were good against Newcastle but beating Real at their home stadium is very, very tough.

Elsewhere, Atalanta have a big job on their hands. I expected them to win the first leg so it’s going to be a hard game for them. Milan have a deficit to overturn too, it’s going to be two nights full of drama.

I honestly believed in City and their chances. And everything looked fine until they collapsed in the end completely. Now even tough it's just 1 goal difference, but I don't believe in their chances at Santiago Bernabeu.
I'm become more sceptical about Atalanta, they're not showing good football in recent games, unlike in first part of season.

[BABY SHOES]

Sorry, no, you tied with arallmuus, but he scored better on the tiebreaker (you can read my full post). Was still a great attempt in a low scoring round, so well done!

Oh Okey I'm a little less understanding of the post, haha no problem all is well buddy.

It's not an easy task for Manchester City to play at home alone they got a comeback by Real Madrid let alone now at Madrid's home maybe City will have trouble dealing with it... although Pep Guardiola's troops will try hard to win, but my hunch is maybe the result will be a draw.

[cryptofrka]

If City was playing against anybody else, I'd be tipping on them to overturn the deficit.
But Real? Kicking them out with a win at the Bernabeu? Nope, not happening.

City will probably lead 2-0 until the 87th minute, only to end up losing 3-2

We have seen this too many times before, Real is going far again.

Sorry mate, I got lucky this round but good luck on the next round. You might score the highest point again

Yeah after watching they play on their last game against Newcastle, they might be able to turn it around if it wasnt against Real Madrid. Nah I'd say this could end with 1-1 draw somehow.

I'm become more sceptical about Atalanta, they're not showing good football in recent games, unlike in first part of season.

Yeah which is the reason why Im betting my guts on them.... Im a risk taker after all though. Its about time they start winning, Its a home game and against Club Brugge so Im expecting them to win tomorrow

Going to be needing some extra kick on the points otherwise I wont make it to top 5 so yeah

It looks like that on paper but Manchester City is playing better and they demolished Newcastle few days ago.
Champions League is on different level but they played closed game with Real in first match.
Real is having some issues in La Liga so I dont know what to expect from this match.

If City was playing against anybody else, I'd be tipping on them to overturn the deficit.
But Real? Kicking them out with a win at the Bernabeu? Nope, not happening.

Is that confirmed insider Mafia information, tell us please? 

[CryptopreneurBrainboss]

UCL upsets + the search for high odds selections so I can catch up have been the biggest reasons for my poor performance but I believe it is the only way to catch up.

You aren't alone on this stand, it has also been my biggest mistake which is now too late to leave because that's the only way to catch up. Thinking about taking a bold step by putting all 5,5 points on two upset this round, if I lose so be it. At this point I'm not scared of the -5% anymore. I haven't put in my answers though, I'll be doing that later and the odds will determine how I allocate the points.

 City will probably lead 2-0 until the 87th minute, only to end up losing 3-2

Always difficult to bet against Madrid but you can never tell what will happen. It's too early for Madrid to exit the champions league that's the only issue. Assuming this was to be in the quarter finals or semis, I would have had more confidence in city being able to pull off an upset but as it stands, it's just the playoff so Madrid isn't leaving any time soon.

[buwaytress]

Sorry I couldn't tag only those I saw having not submitted in Pot B today, I'm out and doing this from my phone but I thought a final reminder might be nice for everyone who might have forgot the new round of games starts tonight. Tips? City to win seems like good odds, but don't fall for it. Omar's not saving them tonight. An acca of home game wins looks really tasty...

Good luck, gentlemen!

My picks are in. Really quite bad in both departments of Pot A and Pot B but I think the beauty of Pot B is what makes all good game shows, and all good competitions that is not league football Meaning, everyone can still win, and the leaders can become lower positioned with bad choices and bad luck. Goodluck to the bastards everywhere, you all need it

Will safe picks be able to gradually bypass high risk bets? I don't really know, at the moment I see that in general bookmakers always milk the crowd, but not the other way around 

How is betting safe? Betting can never be safe. (I don't know, I could be wrong) Betting is risk-taking. But those who are at the top must indeed have taken risks. No one could have reached such a top position without taking risks. (Risk can be in any field, for example, in your personal life, you have to take risks to do something good and work hard, and in casino games, if you don't take risks, you can't win, not only in these few but we have to take risks every moment. You can't move forward without taking risks, and you can't do anything good)

And betting is never safe. Where betting is not safe, how is it possible to gradually avoid risky bets? It isn't feasible. But what do you mean by safe betting here? Please clarify this issue.
