⚽⭐⚽ Rainbet’s BTT World Cup 2026 – Beat the Bookie (100 mBTC reward pool) ⚽⭐⚽

Hail mary reeeee

[el che]

France ruined my score again, losing 200 in the semis was bad but today's 3rd place match dropped me down further. I should've played it safe, now I need an Argentina win just to lock a top 10 spot or my score hits zero. Across BtB, Fantasy and BSFL, I keep repeating the same thing: to win something I need Argentina to win, so much more is at stake for me in this final than just to see Argentina win it again, I'm feeling double the nervousness!

You didn't need that big a hail mary lol

What a letdown it was for so many people including me, BtB stake was small but it was everywhere else that France mattered. And England delivered.

Funny thing was when the lineups were known England went from 3.4 to 4.5 winners odds.

Bookies laugh today.

I say farewell to Beat the Bookie, no more available rebuys. I took a week's break when I was on fire and returned totally cold, with nothing going my way.
I thought Trofo and KTChampions would be the 2 toughest opponents and it is proving to be the case so far, happy to lock horns again in a similar contest again.

I'm 200$ in the red, I'll probably cover that by hitting freebets

I really like Hhampuz's Hail Mary. Huge odds for something that doesn't look that impossible.

.... so it may turn out that it is more profitable to sit and do nothing.
The game for 3rd place looks extremely murky - it seems like no one needs it at all, I would like to know who will take it seriously.

Well, that goes against anything I believe in I don't think I had a single day without tickets in last 20 years 
Beating the bookie is constant hustle, every day is a new opportunity. The trick is to self limit in a way to only go for opportunities. I am still failing on that part, I find it really difficult to drop football out of my tickets even though it is by far my worst performer (this WC excluded, WC went great).

It sounds scary actually, I don’t even understand whether you’re joking or not.

As for me, I missed the game not because of my thoughts above – I was at work and wasn't thinking much about football. Considering both games were officially played on the 19th in my zone (the France-England game started promptly at midnight), I was surprised when notifications about the game started pouring in on my phone.
I don't even know if it's good or bad, I was planning on one hand to take reliable bets on France, Mbappe and Kane, and on the other hand to take something weird (but hardly a total over 9.5 haha).

It was a great competition! I'm not saying this because I'm currently in the money, but because the format forces to keep finger on the pulse and constantly monitor competitors and their thoughts (which are expressed in public bets). It's much better than when I make a prediction on SuperBru and then don't even check results.

Yep. In fact, he is betting on a hopeless draw, but with odds of 515, which is certainly interesting since usual draw is priced around 10.0.

Agree! Always like these kinds of contests, precisely for the same reasons you just said; I'm even still checking the tables and bets despite having gone out long ago. It's quite nice to follow results and thought processes.

My only wish was that they were around five but maybe even three years or so ago, when I was more likely to be glued to my chair looking at games and studying hard for them. These days I don't really have the time to follow, which are conditions for my style of betting... I still put a bet often enough but they are shots in the dark more than anything.

Continue this format, please sirs.

Remember my suggestions about the Champions League pool? No penalties, the entire pot available for betting, and a fixed rebuy for each round. That's actually what was implemented here, and it turned out to be a lot of fun. I can imagine that in long-term tournaments this could be even more fun.

By the way, despite such a result in the France - England game, which could have brought hundreds of x's, the bookmaker laughs in our faces and continues to rob us - now the plus is only 2349, which means that in one game we lost 487 dollars 

[Harkorede]

There was money to be made backing goals which is what we all expected, but as they say scared money don’t make money, going for the winner, corners and bookings was playing into the bookies hands and we did that anyway, at least most of us that bet, I saw Mbappe 2+ goals after I already placed my bet and exhausted my balance.

This was a fun one, I’d agree and looking forward to the next edition (hopefully)

Those numbers aren't good for our guys, especially considering how much in the green you and me are currently

Seen Hhampuz hail mary, and was tempted to play it as well, but decided against it to make it more fun for him. We don't have proper protection against bet sniping here, but I guess it isn't that necessary since someone can submit their ticket with minute to spare if he wants to keep it hidden.

Yeah, we ve always known it's a fun format. But how do you get more than 10 people playing, and more than maybe 5 people playing after halfway through when everyone else has busted? Look at me, I stopped playing after 3 or 4 rebuys. haha And that's just to not be so inactive so early. The penalty was also implemented on popular request (well, popular, meaning a couple of peope who then no one objected to).

Now you just need to be more vocal (which you have been) and we will see if it can be tried again. It must be remembered at all times that participation is the prime objective.

So @buwa now you hear us, we all hate penalties Please remove it right It really made a lot of us feel like we were playing against everyone impossible.
