Such an impossible round,,, Manchester City went way below my expectations and that is the worst outcome they actually progressed but without winning I would have been much happier if Brighton beat them.

Also very annoying to support favorites in cup, and even in basketball, I am just,,, at a loss for words. You probably already also can win that one, so you are 3 ahead and it is not going in my favor at all.

While I'd like to start celebrating, I will hold off for now. I still remember beating Trofo in a sidebet after he had a 4-1 lead. So nothing is lost for you yet. I don't remember how many different answers we have, but I think there is still a chance for you to make a comeback.

It doesn't look good for me this week. The first three answers were a complete miss on my side, and my opponent Smartvirus will most likely score points with the fourth answer as well. Congratulations, you are already leading 3-0.

I probably won't be able to come back from that, since apart from the H2H question we only have two different answers left. So i think you have the win 100% Wink

I knew i was risking a lot going with the yes in Brentford and Fulham favour and i ended up paying it sadly, right now im 1 behind against my rival and we only have only 2 diferent answers remaining among the 7 questions who left to play.

One is in the Milan derby and the other one is the other h2h question, is gonna be difficult to get the victory in this game but i hope to get it since i need it to not lose so much terrain in the leaderboard.

Damn you Liverpool, why you had to wait for penalties to kick out poor Chelsea! Angry

Now I am one point down against Ige because of that and I need to catch up quickly with EFL cup matches.
I already got Fulham question correctly and now I just need Everton to take the lead and win this match.

It obviously wasn’t a good round for you, I noted that right from the moment I was 2 wins in and you weren’t making much of your questions. The H2H even was certainly out of reach already since yesterday since, both our answers for the Newcastle Vs Everton fixture was yes and as it is, I was 3:2 ahead on that. It’s very unlikely Newcastle gets ahead with Everton already leading by 2 goals at halftime but, that wouldn’t matter even.

Your only way would have being to win the last 3 questions for a draw as that’s where we’ve got our differentials but, we both know that’s unlikely.
It’s a needed win for me and it very much seems like, I’ve got this round. Would still wait on the coming days before anything.

I wonder what the odd was for Newcastle to win or draw tonight, cause they are playing like a team that had no intention to take the lead here. Perhaps, I should have checked it before making my pick, it just seemed likely they go in front at some point, even if they do not win. I had a good start to the H2H with 3/3 picks, but I let my opponents back in and we will be drawing this one while I'll still be losing overall.

- Jay -

The round remains even after that draw in the Liverpool match, but at least i'm close to taking back the lead if I can lock in both H2H questions.

Aside from that, I need to hold on for three more questions, if the team can park the bus here, then life is good. Cheesy

Yes, it is already impossible for me to secure a draw. If I understood it correctly, the second head to head question is also going your way. At this point, I can only hope to collect enough points from the remaining predictions to avoid dropping out of the LMS. Otherwise, this would turn into a very disappointing and painful week for me. Nevertheless, congratulations on your victory in advance. You have clearly been the stronger competitor this round, and unless something unexpected happens in the remaining matches.

I'm a goal up but will almost surely lose the NBA question, therefore the most important game of my duel is the Chelsea - United one.
Chelsea looks like shit without JP, whereas United looks like shit all of the time. I have United not to lose and a lot riding on that one.

I suppose I'll hedge here, odds on Chelsea are decent.

So, today we have a day off in the BSFL? I checked the questions that have been settled and I'm up 2-0 against my opponent. I one point advantage in the NBA question, but leea-1334 can still overturn that one. Tomorrow will be a decisive day because if I somehow manage to win both Yes/No questions, I will probably win the round. Actually, I think that I need only one more point to secure at least a draw.

So far so good for me, already leading my opponent with two goals ahead. This should be one of the most exciting rounds for me but as usual one has to remain calm because anything can happen with six more category of questions to be answered and two having same answers already. This leaves us with four questions, and with two more answers getting correctly gives me another win in this round.

Not a day off per se, just that some question didn't get settle like Alcaraz in the tennis, and there still Jokic vs Phoenix Suns too for today.

I started well, but have been off since then, the perfect 5/5 from the first H2H question went unrewarded because Chi20 was just as good, I now have a couple advantage, If I can make them count, I can no longer lose both the tennis and NBA questions.

If I can manage to get both points then, I would have secured the round and survived LMS too.

Doesn't feel like a good round to be rooting for myself or my opponent, as it's an RTG face-off but at least there is no pressure either way -- just saw a message from Trofo on DOTA from Telegram and would have gladly put some spare change on it had I any access now. Made my mind frantically search for a memory on BSFL of DOTA actually!

Well, weird to hope Alcaraz loses tonight so I can collect a point in LMS, usually I back my Spanish bros, but this time I thought I had enough of Spain causing me pain in BSFL but I'm not sure Medvedev is up to the task. Form wise it shouldn't be but Alcaraz new hair might have some different ideas lol

Hope for the same, he is the favorite but both Medvedev and hopefully Zverev in the final should have something to say about that. I am putting my hopes on Zverev, with the win yesterday he is no.1 in the world and I believe that will be enormous boost to his confidence. He was always good player but often fallen short in tight matches, this should add a bit of extra belief to his game. Also this turf should be best for Zverev game which helps a bit.

Hope for the same

+1

Alcaraz beating Paul yesterday and reaching 1/2 final means I still have 3-0 lead and with only 3 different answers left (not counting tennis as Saint-loup can't get point from that one anymore) I secured at least a draw.
With that being said, many things will have to go his way in order to avoid the defeat: Alcaraz has to win Vienna, ManUre not to lose, Liverpool-Arsenal btts and over 3.5 goals and Bayern either failing to lead at half time or not scoring 3 goals. Not a bad hedging situation, but Bayern is making it a little bit more complicated as I can't find anyone offering double chance on 1st half (Rainbet did yesterday, but for whatever reason it disappeared now).

The 1st half double chance was probably unavailable when you checked, but did you check the "Halves" tab too?
I just checked Rainbet, and the 1st half double chance wasn't available in the main tab, but I found it under the "Halves" tab.

I am too tired and demotivated to check this,,, I believe I can already give it up to you in this round and just tell my team to leave it to the next game,,, max we can do now is minimize the damage. I know it is still early in the season to give up but it is very hard to see how to fight with so many good people like @mv1986 and @Harkorede, while also chasing @buwaytress and @Igebotz.

It wasn't available anywhere at the moment I was writing that post, but maybe ~20 minutes later it appeared again so I managed to bet on it.

Once more, a win will not be coming my way. Maybe I can squeeze out a draw if the last H2H basketball question goes my way. Looking at it now, I might have made my prediction too early. Oklahoma is playing Houston away, and the player in question hasn't had many 30+ point games. So, it's sad to say that I've lost once again, but we'll wait until tomorrow.
