How is everyone doing this round? It looks like a dead race between me and leea-1334, and so far we both managed to get only one answer correctly ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Very weird betting weekend for me but I hope things will turn in my direction when time is ready and every point counts. Shame to see Newcastle losing against Brighton today, they are slowly slipping in table and they need to make some corrections asap. yo, that Italy seria A question, I can't seen to remember the question again. Is Napoli among the teams? Because they lost.

Shame to see Newcastle losing against Brighton today, they are slowly slipping in table and they need to make some corrections asap. I was doing well enough prior to Ons Jabeur dropping the first set against Bouzkova, now she needs to fight from a set down yet again, she was able to get the first break in the 2nd sets, and 40-0 to make it 3-1 game lead but she eventually lost the game yet again. It's currently 2-2 in set no. I'm just going to bed already I really can't stay up for the games, it's not as interesting as I anticipated from Jabeur, maybe she'd get to make the come back, I guess I'll find out later during the day.

So Slissy, we are now 2-2 and four more different answers. I see that Napoli has lost yesterday against Lazio. Since the questions was will both hone teams win their game, I guess I got that point even though the Inter is scheduled to play Fiorentina today. Am I right? Too baš that Jabeur managed to win there game in the end. It would be great if she had lost too ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I guess that's a tie.

I'm sure at least one of them will lose and that Alcaraz will lose at least one set so I get one point ahead of you ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) I really need this win. But there are a lot of other questions where I can lose or win a point. It will be extra interesting ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Phew! I really really cut that one so close. My initial reaction was to go for Perfect streaks on Djokovic/Alcaraz but I thought Alcaraz surely drops set in all rounds. Then when he had easu r1 r2 I thought, well, that's a loss. Then Djokovic loses 2 sets and makes it alive ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) You must have both Pegula and Jabeur lose to win this point if only one of them loses then it will be a tie on that question 6 😁
Thankfully both these guys won and I got my point against Trofo!! Now it's 3-1 with 3 more different questions so it looks like this is impossible to draw. I need either Arsenal win, F1/Moto Spain win, or Vucevik to go ahead of Mills (surprising me and Trofo got 4/5 basketball same!).

You really got a bit lucky in tennis questions, Alcaraz destroyed Evans but lost one set. Both Pegula and Jabeour would have lost on another day, if at least one did loose my chances would be much bigger. Anyway, congratulations this was a big match for us and 3 points will help you a lot.

Oh man... I really need to pay more attention to the results. I don't know how I saw that Pegula has lost her game. I guess Slissy and me are tied now and have three questions left.
Trofo, just to be sure, my Serie A answer is correct (No) because Napoli has lost their game against Lazio yesterday? It doesn't matter if Inter wins or loses today, right? Because the question is will both of them win their home games. So as soon as Napoli lost, the Inter - Fiorentina game doesn't matter.

it should be NO, congrats on expecting Napoli or Inter not to win, Lazio started season in a bad manner, but change it all yesterday this is second in a row win for Lazio in Naples, and both times they were featured in BFSL questions, seems that they play tricky when they are highlighted in questions ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

^ Yup, that one's a "No". I felt Inter would be the concern but Lazio got their act together and kicked you and me out of that question. I usually go "no" on these questions but Napoli fooled me. Nice notice on this tie featured a second time, casperBGD, I didn't even remember. Please do your best against CLS63, I'm worried about him chasing ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Oh and Ons! Ons! That took me to a draw with my man jeremypwr (was close, wasn't it, though?). She knew she'd barely scraped through, if anyone saw her post-match, she was warning her husband he would be working hard tonight, lots of massage required, haha. Does anyone know where to find all post-match interviews with everyone? I swear, that's part of the pull for me in tennis.

I guess Slissy and me are tied now and have three questions left.
Technically two questions left because you guys both have the same answers on question #9 So anyone has the update for the basketball question? this is a pretty tricky that I have no clue about and Im currently +2 SD against @darxiami with two questions left as well so I gotta make sure that the basketball H2H question should atleast get us a draw to ensure that I win this round

I'd love an update on the basketball question because it's hard to check it on my mobile phone. So that question and the F1/MotoGP question are what is left to decide the winner.

There already is a confusion on this question, but unfortunately your own answer is invalid while that of your opponent is, If Juancho Hernangomez finish within the top 5 your opponent win the question, but it will be void/draw if Willy Hernangomez is the one that finishes in top, or if both them do, you just don’t have edge or advantage on this question, and there are a lot of others too with that mistake.

Just when Manchester United looked like they had Arsenal were we needed them to be after that Rashford's goal, they allowed the Gunners back into the game instantly..like wtf ,and now United are back to been underdogs 😅 and Arsenal playing more dangerous than ever. At this point the best they can do now is not lose...maybe the script is to have Hojlund our Swiss (Danish)army knife come on later on and win it for United in style. So anyone has the update for the basketball question?
That was one hell of a complicated question if you weren't copying names suggested on the Google doc ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

Put in few top names on some teams that have scored decent number of points. Also I type in random keyword likes 'best player in basketball world cup' and such, there I got it my 5 players name that I put in as the answer for that question Pretty sure that I might not get point from this question but Im pretty curious though

That might not be the best way to answer this question because only the players from teams that qualified for the second round are counting. There are number of players who are among the top 10 that are playing for the teams that didn't qualified for the second round so they are not the right answer.

Did something similar, but unfortunately this was a two phase task, first you are required to have 2-5 of the best FIBA worldcup countries then second phase using your best countries picked..you needed to find their best players which was another workload, but if anyone did the first part correctly then probability of getting 3/5 is possible. Pretty sure that I might not get point from this question but Im pretty curious though Personally I want to see how those google suggested suggested names perform here ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

The basketball question turned out to be confusing, I thought I would win 1 point here, I was always checking the top 5 in statistics on the FIBA page, but in the end I don't know

Oh wow! Could it be that I managed to win in the end? I'm up 4-3 against Slissy (Sainz saved my ass by finishing at the third place ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) ) and there is only one question that we have the same answer. It kinda looks like I always get 4 or 5 points and my win depends on will my opponent win more than 5 points. I don't think that I had more than 5 points in any of this season rounds. The basketball question turned out to be confusing, I thought I would win 1 point here, I was always checking the top 5 in statistics on the FIBA page, but in the end I don't know
It wasn't that confusing. The question clearly said that only the players whose teams doesn't qualify for the next round will not be considered. I checked how the teams were standing on the tables and answered accordingly. In the end I got a draw with Slissy on that question...
