It is Friday and we can already get some answers here, good luck in Round 2 everybody!

Thankfully no more Spurs questions,,, I get killed by them every single damn time 

Yes, you are completely right. I somehow missed your post because my notification only showed the post from leea-1334. Sorry for asking the same question again. In that case, I will pay the entry fee this time. It is still reasonably cheap, and I am not too far behind in the standings yet. Now I just need to make up some ground and finally score a few more points in the upcoming rounds.

Set aside 1.5 mbtc for LMS That I think will be my budget, to lose 1/2 times in early rounds and 1/2 times later on. It gets expensive to 1 mbtc later on but you can always decide at the time.

Goodpunt, we are finally underway with the game tonight, and you have a slight advantage in tennis, as you picked Zverev and Medvedev. I picked a slightly riskier path and thought it was a tournament of surprises in Shanghai. But if everything goes as planned, we will have a penalty shootout in the Milan games, and there we will see who is luckier .

The Cup qualifiers are officially finished!

This was fast and I will say that Bitcoin Smith won this as a good challenger. Beating him in the last round of the BSFL and he got his victory back on out next H2H encounter so quickly, that was quite impressive. How I wish this cup was like an home and away fixture style, because it isn’t nice showing up for the first time in the cup and getting eliminated on the first attempt. I’ll do better next time, next season again.

The real deal begins tomorrow

Finally, week without BSFL seems somehow empty No spreadsheet to check how well I have done, no banter....sad existence for sure. But now we are back and I am looking forward both to these last 5 questions and next league round.

Even watching Burnley tonight. They started well so far, Wolves on the ropes in early minutes.

[un_rank]

Burnley scored through Vardy. This could be the start of him turning back the years. If he or Burnley scores another, which they are threatening to do, I will feel in a good position for them to avoid losing and for there to be another goal. These matches can be funny sometimes, after an early goal the could just idle away or get only one more.

I and BABYSHOES has all answers different, except our Alcaraz pick which is irrelevant now. The tie could swing anyway.

For me the real stuff starts tomorrow with the Brentford - Liverpool game. I need Brentford to win, while my opponent went with a draw. I see that Brentford has a lot of draws lately, but I hope that they can beat Liverpool at home and bring me the first point.

That early Burnley goal means another question that I can no longer lose, Wolves have equalized.

I'd rather see Liverpool lose, a draw is going to hurt me, while a win could mean I win the round and advance to the next one... Liverpool after such great number of goals scored against LASK Linz, they should be feeling comfy to face Brentford, and the last week result against City wasn't even deserving, If they show up with a similar performance before the red card, I see no reason why they can't win.

[LFC_Bitcoin]

I got to the final of the cup one season and lost it. Since then I’ve gone out early every damn season. Just checked the spreadsheet and I’m 1-0 down to ulven after the first question ughhh.

This is what happens when you play the reserves and don’t take the early rounds seriously.

I prefer to get knocked out the micky mouse cup at the early stage to crossing many rounds and getting knocked out one round away from the prize positions - my club objective is to get promoted, any other side attractions is cherry on the cake.. LMS too.

I'm leading my opponent - he came in aggressively with too many risks ; it's not looking good for him.

Can Liverpool win their next fixture? I don't want to let their CL performance to fool me.

Just checked yesterday's result, since when have Championship matches become such goalfests?
Anyway, I'm not really surprised that our match will be decided once again in a sport that is not football

I'm sure that Brentford has what it takes to beat Liverpool. I'm also not taking the cup too seroiusly, but after a bad start of the season, a win in the first round of the cup would be good for the morale of the team. I just hope the game doesn't end with a boring draw.

[buwaytress]

un_rank is the true MVP of R1 Cuppers...

I've been so bad in the league I didn't even bother to check the results until now. Maybe that is the trick I should use as it enters the 2nd round just as I do with my bet tickets 

Roma was my pick of the round. I placed a single bet on them to win with over 1.5 goals. That made not to lose here a no brianer. I'll not understand how they threw that away from the position they got into. (I do, Madrid pedigree)
I should have hedged.

Some lessons we refuse to learn the first, second, or tenth time, eh man? Yeah I accidentally checked my results now too, shouldn't have. Made a good start with Wolves but now I'll have jinxed myself all the way to tennis.

On to another weekend watching football from my phone. Oh, sorry, I meant reading football.

[cryptofrka]

Zverev lost to Fokina - and Jodar started with an early break against Medvedev. Luckily the tennis question bears no significance to my duel.
LTU_btc put his trust in Liverpool and that might be his downfall..

I also think Barcelona will play it easy before their game against PSG - so that was a mini-trick of a question. Let's see if I fell into my own trap here.

[ralle14]

Dropping that first point in the second round is unfortunate, but at least there's still hope in the other two questions.

If Betis can hold Barcelona to only three goals max, that would be great, and if not, then it might boil down to the Leverkusen match tomorrow.

My mind flashed on that but my thinking was they will really value a win at a tough opponent to keep the pressure on Madrid before the classico. PSG has shown that one can drop points in the league phase and pick up later on in the season. Having a good lead in the league when we enter the business stage will be more helpful than a good result against Paris, which is more a matter of pride. Of their next 3 fixtures I think that has the least significance.

Betis are also an open team which should leave barcelona spaces behind to exploit while they try to exploit any spaces that they are afforded.

Zverev lost to Fokina - and Jodar started with an early break against Medvedev. Luckily the tennis question bears no significance to my duel.

"Zverev, Medvedev, or Fritz" remains the safest answer before the semifinal matches begin, with Zverev in the top half of the bracket & Medvedev in the bottom half. Moreover, looking at the rankings, at least one of either Zverev or Medvedev should have reached the final. I swear, this just feels completely unreal to me.

Okay @el che, you’re really lucky this time, our team should have been leading with 2 answers, but as it stands, it’s a 1 - 1 tie. Really looking forward to Liverpool winning against Brentford tonight.

[slackovic]

Well, Liverpool is leading 2-1 in 74th minute so I guess that the first point won't be going my way. I hope that Brentford won't equalize because that would mean Crowolf will get his first point.

Oh, now I see that Yarmoliuk got sent off for valentina behavior. After that Liverpool scored two goals ans turned the game around.

[Harkorede]

Zverev lost to Fokina - and Jodar started with an early break against Medvedev. Luckily the tennis question bears no significance to my duel.

Trofo called that one, I was thinking Ruud would have been the better opponent for my own good, but in the end both Zverev and Medvedev lost so I'm getting that point and with Liverpool's victory, I'm able to see off Hakan, not that his team was any much of a threat to start with, GG buddy! Good luck the rest of the season!

I also think Barcelona will play it easy before their game against PSG - so that was a mini-trick of a question. Let's see if I fell into my own trap here.

A goal inside 10 minutes, I'm really glad that this isn't a decider for my duel, I'm be sweating right for going with 0-2...

Now I feel horrible that this wasn't a regular league round, because the numbers look really great for me I'd be topping the LMS chart (if those would have been Trofo's answers) he also would be on the brink of elimination, what a lucky break for him! It's no coincidence, I know!

[cryptofrka]

Well, shit. There's really no stopping Barcelona it seems.
Now I need them to score again, because if they score exactly 3 I'm out of the Cup before tomorrow's Bundesliga game.

Not sure if anybody's watching, it's a really good game. Betis just scored their 2nd goal, they look good offensively this season.

[Rikafip]

Hah, how luck changes. Just a few days ago I won last league round mainly because Liverpool got red card, and now I might lose the cup round because Liverpool's opponent got red card instead.

Not all is lost though, but I will need a lot of luck to turn this around.
