Bitcointalk IPL Prediction Pool & Discussion 2023

I'm the one to join along with you, not having a single point so far in the 5^th round. Today I believed somehow I'll get few points. Finally in both the matches the results were completely upside down. Chennai lost the match at the last ball and Mumbai players gave an unexpected performance winning against Rajasthan Royals chasing 212 runs. Already 5 matches of the 5^th round over. More five matches left for us to make few points from the 5^th round.

We have two match today and I have no idea who I picked. Nothing is going to change for me I guess. So if anyone wants then I can tell what I picked 😂. Let's see if we are able to earn any point.

Yesterday at some point I wanted MI to win. The David guy played a monster innings and he deserves it. Holder was just below average in his last three balls. He needs to learn how to pitch a ball LOL

If RR wins then I may have a point today.

Mumbai players gave an unexpected performance winning against Rajasthan Royals chasing 212 runs.

I guess every one of us was hoping Rajasthan Royals will win the match against Mumbai Indians. For the very first time, we all were on the same page and predicted Rajasthan Royals wins but MI ruined our dreams

In last both matches, (rcb vs lsg & gt vs dc) — after first innings got over I pretty much considered my picks to winners (lsg and gt). However, results, jesus they couldn't chase these potato targets (127 and 131 respectively), ffs.

I'm with you on that one. A lot of expected things are happening this season. On one side, there are too many matches where the target goes over 200 and it is also chased down, like what happened last night where PBKS scored 215 and MI chased it down pretty easily, but in some matches, even the smallest targets are not chased down successfully like what happened with GT. I was 100% sure that GT is going to get an easy win considering how balanced their batting side is, but they failed miserably.

Don't add me with everyone. I am different 😉
From the last round I think I made a record of not picking up a winning team for the whole round. It's not easy to do as it's not easy to pick the winners too 🤣

I was continuing my losing streak but yesterday CSK won and gave me a break.
11 losing streak so far, has anyone else done it before?

A lot of matches are going totally the opposite way of what everyone is expecting, so we all have lost a lot of matches that we thought would be wins I guess. 

A streak of 11?  I don't think I've ever had that in sports betting, did have it a lot of times in gambling though.

It's a losing streak, I just wonder what if I would picked the opposite teams all the time. I could have a huge lead on the pool LOL
But this round so far not a bad one for me. 4 points so far out of 6 matches. You seems way ahead than others with 36 points, damn!

I have CSK in the live match now. and it seems 84% predicted CSK to win. May be i will have one more point this evening if I am lucky then two points LOL

Yeah, I'm leading with 5 extra points than the 2nd position, libert19, he did pretty well, he was down in the leaderboard initially but managed to climb up pretty fast. With not a lot of matches left, I'm hoping that I can keep the 1st position by the end if things don't go way too wrong and I miss all the predictions in the upcoming matches, lol.

I was hoping to beat you but except yesterday's two matches, several prior predictions failed consequently.

Even tho I'm second, 3rd Noormcs5 has same number of points as me, wouldn't take much for me to trip down, but then again prize is same for both places 

[Vaskiy]

Two rounds back it happened with me. Once again I've failed with the last four match prediction. On the leaderboard I'm standing down and no more chances of reaching the top position. Congratulations to the leaderboard toppers. All the four matches were completely against the prediction, something completely one sided.

The competence is much between the second, third and fourth position ad the points are something close.

What are you verifying LOL



[The talkimg seems freezing on my browser, I guess I know the possible reason.]

Back to the topic. I don't think I have any motivation left to continue on the pool but I am going to make sure I have picked rest of the matches.

Its already lost. I'm alongside of you. The top 3 are in good competence. The worst round for me had passed. I was able to have just one point from round 7. Big disappointment. Until then I was somehow close with the participants. Now that's a big difference between the first position and me. Lets see in the ODI World Cup prediction pool.

If you have at least 25 participants and able to manage a good sponsor then please someone feel free to PM me. I might join again. 10 to 15 people does not make a pool much exciting unfortunately.

I am at the No 2 spot now with 41 points while Alone055 is on the number one spot with 43 points. I guess it will be hard to beat him now as only a few matches remaining. libert19  you are in the number 3 spot with 36 points while umeridrees is at 4th position with 36 points.

One thing i want to confirm here is that i only see Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Gujarat Titans as the last match which will be played tomorrow. Will this be the last match at superbru or will they also add the playoffs including the final later  

Considering how close the points we are having, it is important to know how many matches are left at superbru.

They will add rest of the matches once the teams are fixed. So you will be able to make picks all the matches including the final match.

I am at the No 2 spot now with 41 points while Alone055 is on the number one spot with 43 points.

It's only 2 points difference. With the remaining matches it's hard to predict who will eventually win.

I see 3 matches left [1], regarding playoffs, pretty sure we'll be able to select once fixtures final.

Well, you can still beat me if I make a wrong prediction in the upcoming matches and if you get margin points too, but we will have to see.  However, I think you did pretty well. I was honestly not expecting you from the leaderboard to come this close to the top, my competition was first with umeridrees, then libert19, and now it's with you since you have managed to leave both of them behind in points.

[Vaskiy]

Initially it used to be really good as my predictions used to come closer and kept me at the lead. Few rounds were really bad and in particular the last round I was able to score just a point. If not I might've been in the race for the third spot. Even the present round isn't favouring me, in the match between KKR vs LSG my prediction narrow win for KKR and what happened at the last moment. Anyhow congratulations to all the participants on the top of leaderboard.

Finally, the regular matches of the IPL have finished and we are now left with just 4 playoff matches.  The real battle is now between you (Alone055), me (noormcs5), libert19 and umeridrees to reach the top 3. Doing a bit of math, a maximum of 8 points a person can get from here on in if he predicts correctly the four matches along with the margin.

Since you have a 3 points lead, it seems that you will remain at the top but the 2nd and 3rd position is totally uncertain at this moment.
