And here we go! Poland lost the United Cup, I dislike tennis... I guess here is when I count my losses.. with just 7 goals to get in no3 question,  I can say I'm out of the cup. Its was a good ride though   never expected to reach this far in cup because i don't usually do well in cups... cheers to everyone  especially my opponent @BitcoinHunt3r...

Guys, you have to give me some credit for the Bischofshofen margins
There are no odds for such stuff anywhere so it's all out of our heads, and most often than not we nail them to be just right.

Questions for the next league round are almost ready, they are a bit different this time as an experiment. We'll see how you like them.
We'll probably post them tomorrow, still some finetuning to do.

Yes, you guys have done it multiple times now, no markets to help, so credit for getting it bang on, not something I could have done. I do recall some other points lines far from results (FIBA maybe?) and also the Tour de France (but the accident ruined that early on) so I won't allow you guys to get your heads too big

Ready for the new round. Maybe it favours me!

[slackovic]

Well it looks like Pep screwed me over. Manchester City is already four goals up at the beginning of the second half. Now only West Ham can save me if they score only two goals. But I won't get my hopes up because Man City looks like they are not done scoring.

[Chi20]

Wow, looks like I just went though to semifinals with city and west ham scoring 6 goals.. unimaginable... @buwaytress hope you aren't surprised?
@BitcoinHunt3r it's was a good ride even though I have given up.  Cheers to you man.

[Harkorede]

The Ski Jump question and the total goals scored by the selected teams, that was quite some margins, CRO2 team needs a raise, all in favour say aye!

@Trofo that was quite a friendly H2H, I must say, it was quite more interesting than the cup fixtures tbh right ? I almost lost all hope at Napoli being 2 goals down but they conceded 3 without response, West Ham with a goal inside 4 minutes couldn’t get another within the remaining 86 minutes, and Pep’s City bringing it to halt at 5 goals,  Just wow!

Wow, so West Ham saved my a$$? I didn't even bother to check the result after seeing Man City scoring five goals. Again we have to congratulate the Cro2 team for the margins on this question.

Now on to the penalties... The game is starting in 15 minutes but I'm too lazy to check our answers on the phone.

[cryptofrka]

The Cup QF pairs have been decided before penalties, with home teams dominating.

Round 4 results

Hhampuz - mitchr4   3-2
Renato297 - Kokee44   3-1
Ulven - Slissy   2-1
chi20 - BitcoinHunt3r   2-1

Trofo lost a sidebet to Harkorede, and will face penalties in his sidebet vs slackovic.

The Cup semifinal pairs are:

Hhampuz - Renato297
Ulven - chi20

Embarrassment for Div1 - no representatives in the cup semis.
As usual, we'll try to arrange betting on Sportsbet on the semifinal pairs.

We proceed with the league, questions for Round 11 are ready.

The deadline is January 9th, 18:00 GMT.

As already mentioned, there are a lot of sports events happening and most of the questions span across multiple days. We thought this is a fun experiment for this round, but don't see it happening a lot in the future.
We like when the majority of the questions revolve around a single game - because the factor of luck is higher in the current set of questions.

Let us know what you think about it - maybe we find the middle ground somewhere if the majority likes it more this way.

Three Division 2 and 2 Division 3 players are 1 late submission away from elimination. Be careful guys

Lucky bastards Harkorede you have already been paid out as per our PM agreement to change the amount of bet to AFCON pool sign in. Check the AFCON thread for the details.


Cup semi finals are now complete. Good luck guys, time to find our BSFL Cup Champion soon:

[Hhampuz]

"As usual, we'll try to arrange betting on Sportsbet on the semifinal pairs."

Will I be able to bet on myself for this?

EDIT; Also, thank you Germany for beating Poland in the United cup or it would have possibly turned out quite differently. This cup has been great so far, any idea when we'll have the SF questions @Trofo, @cryptofrka?

I don't feel lucky. I'm angry because Pep didn't keep up his promise to me, but if I win this penalties, I'll have to thank casperBGD for getting Moyes to play easy and score only one goal

And I must say that after firat few days I thought our fight will be over much sooner than this.

Usually cup has been played after league finishes but this season we are still thinking when to do it. We still need to have DIV 3 playoffs and probably one double round for you so we hoped you will get eliminated from cup Now you will probably have double round in cup slot and it will be played maybe in 2 weeks. We will let you all know as usual as soon as we make the best possible time slot for it.

You will be able to bet on yourself but not for your usual amounts   I think limit is about 5 mBTC or something like that. Otherwise there would be too much temptation and while we can't check it without Sportsbet help betting against yourself would be a real dick move so we really hope nobody tries something like that and kills fun for the rest.

Those who bet against themselves, I would interpret that as match-fixing( I have faith that everyone here is honest). How cool isn't it to bet money on yourself on a sportsbet site, it doesn't happen often😁

I lost by 0.5 m in ski jumping. I blame the judges which gave home advantage to Stefan kraft with a better jump grade😁😂

But now it's back to the league and time to win 3 important points against slackovic😁

Told ya ur the lucky charm of this cup round. Im betting on you in Sportsbet as well so make sure that you make it through all the way mate !

while we can't check it without Sportsbet help betting against yourself would be a real dick move so we really hope nobody tries something like that and kills fun for the rest.

Woah that would be a pretty dick move. I've never think of this lol but this is Sportsbet we are talking about so Steve probably got most of our usernames on Sportsbet so that would be pretty easy to check. In case some dick try to use a new account or whatsoever, betting max bet on BSFL then win it somehow would be pretty suspicious

I'm rooting for you and will be placing some mBTC on you as well; you've been putting in an excellent performance for a first-timer.lol

I've been playing here for three seasons and have only advanced to the quarterfinals.

Trofo, I was hoping you guys would give us another week off, I'm scared to look into the eyes of my players, I'm obviously a bad Manager.

I dropped out of the quarter finals in my first participation. This is an honor for me. In order to learn more not to send random answers. Thanks to the participants and good luck. I can't thank enough the organizers people's and sponsors for trying to make us happy with everything they have



Let us know what you think about it - maybe we find the middle ground somewhere if the majority likes it more this way.

For the questions for round 11, it's awesome, I answered it without the slightest thought or doubt, but with complete enjoyment

[cryptofrka]

Hasn't happened so far, we assume it won't happen at all.
Naturally, if SB received 50 max bets from new accounts on player X, they'd probably just void the bets.

This is all just for fun, max bets will be small, usually 30-50% of us place the bets. SB does it just so we can have some extra fun so let's not ruin that by thinking we can outsmart them, eh?

[slackovic]

So happy that Trofo didn't  manage to get even for the first friendly sidebet. I didn't check the penalty results but he already contacted me via DM about my win. I just hope he won't be so dissapointed and never accept a sidebet with me again

[notblox1]

Trofo lost a sidebet to Harkorede, and will face penalties in his sidebet vs slackovic.

Thank you Harko for your service!
Revenge is a dish best served cold  

Hhampuz - Renato297
Ulven - chi20

Congratulations on making it so far guys!
I am neutral in this race, so let the best player win the Cup.
Play fair if you see your names on Sportsbet website for betting

We thought this is a fun experiment for this round, but don't see it happening a lot in the future.

Oh no, not new BSFL experiments again  

[mitchr4]

To be honest with the Four Hills Tournament question, I didn't really analyze the question because I wasn't too familiar with the sport and just answered based on feeling. Shame there were no representatives from Division 1.

[Chi20]

Hello @Saint-loup and kanakpa,  you guys are one kick away from been kicked out of the league due late submission.  I will be doing you guys a favour by reminding you for just the reminding weeks that's if it will be allowed . Do well to submit on time to avoid been kicked out. I will also do you a reminder tomorrow, don't disappoint us!
