End of first half we have no goal from any side but still we can have 3 to 4 goals in second half Liverpool done some good work after slow start and trying to have their grip, but we have good defense from Tottenham in first half which does not allow Liverpool for scoring goal. I (like many others) was also caught out by this tip, very few people expected so few goals. My direct opponent also predicted the few goals correctly and now we are back on a par with the correct results, but the week is still long and we also have different predictions. And Liverpool didn't manage to score a goal and then even lost.

Bye Bye Navarro and Bye Bye Kasatkina:P
Pegula through as expected, another lucky retirement but she was leading anyway.
Well this is good for me. Notbox1 had Kasatkina to win and now I just need Pegula to go straight to the final and win to claim a point from this question. Next round would be rough Who could have expected Liverpool to eventually lose the match ?
Some people could have, if this question was wether Tottenham would lose or not against Liverpool then pretty sure around 30% of us would choose Tottenham not to lose since this is just a cup game. Aside from that the odds for Tottenham to win was pretty good, wonder if anyone took it. Anyway, both underdog actually ended up winning their game in cup games

Well this is good for me. Notbox1 had Kasatkina to win and now I just need Pegula to go straight to the final and win to claim a point from this question. Next round would be rough Damn it! I knew Maddison Keys would be a good contender I was just contemplating whether she could oust Kasatkina, having Maddison Keys and Pegula would have been really great to secure not just a H2H point, but most likely an LMS point as well…. Either way my opponent had Navarro, so there isn’t any damage done for trying to think outside the box.

While we are selecting we have completely different mindset but after watching results we have to cry about this I also think about Madison Key but then gone with popular reply. You are still good for having more points, but I am feeling I have last round in LMS as I have no points after three official results and fourth is also going against me as Monaco is trailing by 10 points against Barcelona, and we have only 5 minutes left in game.

Monaco got smashed, but majority of us went for NO in the basketball question. Too easy? Moreso it's way too early into the season, and almost no one knows shit about these women, their tournament is more volatile than the price of crypto... Keys is the favorite over Kasatkina according to the sportbooks, I couldn't have chosen Keys in the lower bracket because she had Ostapenko first and that seem like a 50/50 match up to me, so I went for the easier choice, but like I said Keys would have been an easy pick for me if she was in a different bracket.
Yeah, Kasatkina was a pure gamble from the gut, but now she and 2nd seed are out, if I'd gone with pure liking, my Ons would be out anyway, so I just need Pegula to get over the line. As it stands, my opponent Trofo was even crazier, but funnily enough went for Ons and also went for Kasatkina, but opted to shove Pegula out of the way. I was one choice away from having the exact same pick as him. So I have an advantage here, winning the point if Pegula reaches the final.

vd309 - Saint-loup has the most boring match for this round with 10 same answers. Damn😂
Happened to the 2 of us in the last round of one of the seasons when I needed a win to remain in Division 1. I'm still salty about it  8 tends to happen, 9 is really rare and I think this is the 2nd time that people have the same answers in 6 seasons (us being the first and only until this week). Monaco got smashed, but majority of us went for NO in the basketball question. Too easy?
I expected a 70-30 split on this question, it is actually 68-32 so I came extremely close

Basketball, Yes, it looks like it... I don't think it was a tough call., I didn't check any stats and whatnot for that, I just went the my guts according to the match up, because although the number of matches involved weren't much but the odds for at least one of them to win isn't that bad if you ask me. At least that helps me take a lead in my duel, so not a bad day after all.

Now I can only hope for another 0 points tennis question in this round. Tight match so far, like all I played this season. Why didn't you forget to submit? Keep an eye on AO guys, you know we have to have that one in our questions

WTF Samsanova retired, gave Keys an easy final appearance. So many shitty retirements, I don't really follow tennis but I think this is the most retirements I've seen in a single competition. One every round. Is this even normal? And they all chose to retire when they thought they were losing. What's that about. I mean, means nothing to me as me and Kokee are both gonna draw but tennis never fails to surprise me. Now I can only hope for another 0 points tennis question in this round. Tight match so far, like all I played this season. Why didn't you forget to submit? Keep an eye on AO guys, you know we have to have that one in our questions  I guess you not getting your wish because Pegula was just so close to losing her first set, I think she was even down 4-1 in tiebreaker somehow she won 7-4, her opponent did a superchoke. If this is mens I think theres a chance but I think she gonna win her next one.

It is the week before AO. Nobody is gonna risk anything. Consider tournaments played this week as friendly game before World Cup in football. Yeah, you want to win, but if you feel even something small like fatigue you are not playing that game and risking it. Only players that are searching for form or more matches are actually playing this week. All the others are in AO training and getting used to conditions.

Pegula and Keys for the finals, at least from the week both men and women side of tennis, I know some potential plagues to avoid in the Australia Open. It should be an interesting 2 weeks of tennis.

Not sure why I skipped Keys, probably because I felt that Kasatkina surely goes to QF whereas I wasn't sure that Keys would beat Ostapenko. Not many people have her but Strongkored does, fair play man - I fumbled this one.
Still enough different answers to not worry too much at this stage, good thing is that not many people will get LMS points here.

Yeah, that's exactly the same reason why I didn't pick Keys, it was about the first game against Ostapenko... I think a couple of people had Keys, very good point to earn there, especially for those still playing in the LMS. ------------------ Exactly the start I could have hope for from Leverkusen, a goal inside the opening 30 seconds of the match, I'd love to get one more at least before halftime for insurance purposes

Victory is extra sweet against someone anyone would be proud to call an arch rival! Not sure why I skipped Keys, probably because I felt that Kasatkina surely goes to QF whereas I wasn't sure that Keys would beat Ostapenko.
She wasn't even really on my radar of top 5. For no other reason than I just thought there were far stronger candidates. But it's WTA. And it's tennis. Luck favoured me this time, can't complain. It is the week before AO. Nobody is gonna risk anything. Consider tournaments played this week as friendly game before World Cup in football. Yeah, you want to win, but if you feel even something small like fatigue you are not playing that game and risking it.

Great point, it really is a training ground and acclimatiser for the GS. One might even be sure that Pegula will be too tired for the bigger stage...

Call me crazy, but I've put a litle bit of money on Dortmund wins or draw @6.  edit: its 1-2 now, Dortmund just scored.

10Q=0: Well, this time I wasn't the only one who pickup Badosa, for now I just hope that Keys wins, difficult but there is hope that it will happen, my other selection was Kasatkina, she deflated, that simple, I think that Keys arrives fresher...

Did I miss anything important guys? I see I won only one point so far in this round, and I was away for most of the week so I didnt follow what was going on in the forum.
I totally forgot to pay fee for LMS so I am out of that competition, but my proposition is for mafia to introduce payback at later rounds. For example, if I was kicked out in Round 3 than I can pay and get back in Round 5. I dont see any negatives for doing that and pot will increase.

Yep. I am watching as well and Dortmund almost scored again. So yeah, even though they are 2 goals behind, I have a feeling that anything could still happen here + I've been traumatised by the all the losses from previous seasons so can't be relaxed even when "my" team has 2 goals lead.

Nothing much really aside from the fact that I currently have an edge on question #10. I have Pegula to win so yeah if she wins tomorrow then Im getting point from this question. You might wanna start praying that Keys beat her tomorrow. Even bookies have Keys at slightly favourite. Keys to retire tomorrow would be sweet for me  I totally forgot to pay fee for LMS so I am out of that competition, but my proposition is for mafia to introduce payback at later rounds. For example, if I was kicked out in Round 3 than I can pay and get back in Round 5. I dont see any negatives for doing that and pot will increase.
Pretty sure they allow you to pay at later date only if you promise to pay before the round started if that is what you mean
