@Cryptoblivion and @shogun47 thanks for the 2 registrations today!
as for the picks, Saint-loup should hurry up - he still has just under 1.5 hours to pick at least today's opening game
shogun47 should also register at kicktipp in our bl-pool and submit his picks as well: https://www.kicktipp.com/btt-buli-pool-2425/

a participant with the nickname 'Th' has also registered in our kicktipp round
i could not assign this user to a participant from our participant list - if there is no official registration until the start of today's bl game, i will kick this user out of our bundesliga pool

There is still an outstanding bill  Last season I was competing for relegation you know 

I think I should be ok now. Bonus picks are set and result for tonight as well. I give some secret away here and say Leverkusen go go!

Saint-Loup still missing

It's nice to have several new participants in the last days and to have exceeded the 20 players mark finally. Welcome to you bro. And thank you for calling me, I took a bit of time to submit my predictions because I wanted to fulfill all matches of the matchday in one go actually, I won't have time to do it this week-end unfortunately.
Anyway I will also support Leverkusen tonight, because as a good degen, I chose them as leader of the first leg

Where you're all gone guys? Nothing to say about opening round? I'm starting to think that Bayer is living in Groundhog Day. Such things just can't continue for so long. When you think that there is no way how they can save their asses this time, they do it again. And always different scenario.

[cygan]

the first matchday in the bundesliga is now over and Ulven is the first matchday winner in our bl-pool!
with 20 points he secures the free bet on sportsbet.io which will be credited at the beginning of next week - congratulations!

[cygan]

Decent prize pool @cygan! Thanks for the update.

btw i hope you used your welcome free bets just in time

Yep, thanks again! Just used it and was able to win about 2mBTC. Much appreciated!


Don't forget to place your picks everyone, 2nd match day is starting tomorrow. Basically everyone needs to put in their picks.

However, I am sure @cygan will send a reminder tomorrow.

[cygan]

the second matchday in the bundesliga starts today with union belin vs. st. pauli and so that all participants can submit their picks just in time, here is a reminder for the following users (you still have about 6 hours to do so):

It is quite interesting now that two of the top three got the result wrong, everything looks so close again. I had a bad start, but it shows that one huge day can turn things around.

But anyway, I went against my own expectations here because I thought there won't be many goals and Union Berlin has a slight edge. Yet I went with the standard 2-1 result. It's tough or actually impossible to tell when it makes sense to play it safely.

I am about to put in my predictions for tomorrow, but I have to say already that this round could produce some surprises. It's going to be one of those days where you lead the table in one minute and then drop to the bottom the next minute!

one thing i forgot to mention yesterday was that Little Mouse asked me to remove him from the pool for the well-known personal reasons and to pay back his entry
of course i will do that today and wish him a lot of strength and courage for his current situation🙏

Yes had heard about his situation a few weeks ago from steve asking me to check a thread for him and seen Little Mouse's name mentioned there.
Then came to realize several weeks later he went missing.
Wish him all the best in his recovery but won't comment too much more since I do not know the entire situation and will not pretend to.
He is a good campaign manager and an asset to this forum.
Nice of you to refund him entry fee since he's in much need of those funds than to have it locked into a pool during a course of a football season.
Good on you Cygan!

Way too early commentary, but I can't help myself: fightback from Mainz, and more pressure heaped on BVB. It's a shame that as Leverkusen's star is rising, Dortmund's sun is waning. It would have been amazing to see a 3-legged horse race in Bundesliga -- but I suppose that leaves the door open for another unlikely pretender a la Freiburg two seasons ago.

P.S. Belated welcome back to Saint-loup!

P.P.S. And good to hear about Little Mouse, I wouldn't have known about his situation until I read this thread.

[LTU_btc]

Bayer 35 unbeaten series comes to the end. Well, all such series ends sooner or later, but the way how it ended, it looked like complete opposite of recent Bayer as they wasted 2:0 lead at home.
And now I read about Little Mouse situation, it's completely understandable that he decided to withdraw from pool. Wish all the best for him

3 horse title race in Bundesliga - I think you're asking too much mate, but I wouldn't be against it

[cygan]

the second matchday ended today with a 2-0 home win for bayern against freiburg.
and with 16 points, Omikifuse took the matchday win and thus also secured the free bet on sportsbet.io - congratulations!
jayce (aka Noobhere) made the highest jump in the table (+9) and Trofo dropped 10 places
meanwhile jeremypwr completely forgot to predict the saturday 15.30 games...

Technically I didn't forget; just wanted to give others a chance to win

Heidenheim atop of the league with 6 points and two clean sheets was not on my bingo list, i think i went against them twice already. Thought that selling their two best players, Beste and Kleindienst, and having to play Conference League qualifiers would have a short-term negative impact on the team. I guess i was wrong.

It's interesting to see if Demirovic can and to what extent replace Guirassy in Stuttgart, benched vs Mainz, hmm?

We ate well last season, so it's time to spam Kane Anytime Scorer again, you know he's not going to get two blanks in a row.

[cygan]

in less than 6 hours the 3rd matchday in the bundesliga starts with the game dortmund vs. heidenheim
to make sure that all pool participants submit their tips in time, here is a reminder for all those who are missing out:
