Schalke and Elversberg are hard to predict.
Both got promoted this season, so no one really knows what to expect of them.
By default, most of the freshly promoted clubs would be treated like big underdogs by bookies, but this can be a very incorrect assessment.

Anyhow, none of us correctly predicted Elversberg winning or Schalke earning a point on Bayern.

Right, I just realized that its lacking the 'lock' prediction button like Superbru. Well if Superbru ever had a beta test page back in the days then it would probably be similar to how kicktipp looks like I guess 


Are they actually a dark horse team like Como in Serie A or this is just another spur of the moment ? It was 3-1 and they scored 3 goals in 30+ minutes in an away game, won against two top Bundesliga team as well

Im starting to think I should predict them to win on the next one

the 2nd matchday ended today with two very surprising and lopsided away wins!
and this time, we get to congratulate four participants on winning the matchday!
with 12 points each, morvillz7z, KTChampions, pawel7777 and Cryptoblivion have also secured the 50USDT free bet on Vega.bet - congratulations!
once again, a user was unable to submit all of their picks on time...

Going against Freiburg and Dortmund cost you the points that essentially everyone else won, but at times I like taking those risks. See how cygan went against Leipzig, or pawel7777 who went with Augsburg. If those end up as 4 points against everyone else's 0 points, then it really pays off. However, you will see that those who take the lead early on in our pools will more and more go with the standard picks I think. At some point it just doesn't pay off to take that additional risk. If you get very lucky and hit exact results more than others a lot more, that's what makes the difference. or the risky path and, well, going with Elversberg against Bayern next game Let's see if anybody has the guts to do it.

Elversberg is the same for everyone here, even for us Germans. Very tough calls because essentially they are unpredictable, but I think we will know more after their game against Bayern. Schalke, I would be careful, this 0-0 draw against Bayern is far more luck than skill in my opinion. I still don't like the quality of their team and the times when they have been taken seriously in the Bundesliga are loooooong ago. It is more about the history of the club (I think, but I could be wrong). Paderborn has been in the Bundesliga before, they have their strong moments, but I am pretty sure will be playing against relegation eventually.

Oh and slackovic, no need to be worried too early on, you just need to squeeze out one of these:



Gameday 31 of last season. 29 points, FML... Five exact results and ALL nine games correct, lol. I think I have never seen a better result in these pools? 29 is probably the record.

yeah, that's the current points record in the bundesliga pools (including the german one) - there have already been players who scored at least 2 points in all 9 games... but no one has ever reached 29 points!
i'm curious to see when the 30-point mark will be reached

Exactly
Because at the end of the tournament, a user could benefit greatly from the strategy of copying the results of another user who was in fight directly, thereby preventing the points of both users from changing

In the Bayern Munich and Mönchengladbach games, no one even managed to score a point
WTF 

I think this is going be to harder than I thought

the actual free bet option on Vega.bet isn't fully online yet. the dev-team is working on it, and the free bets will be available very soon...
for the winners on the first match day, only their own Vega accounts were credited with 50 USDT - so this wasn't the actual free bet in that sense

I haven't won freebet in this sponsored pool, but I did win on another contest sponsored by Vega.bet here on bitcointalk and the prize distribution was announced by the person who managed the contest.

In that contest I won, they mentioned that the prize would be freebet, but it was credited to my BTC balance. So that might also happen here and it would be better if you guys check your BTC balance as well.
In my case, the prize was actually credited on August 27, but I didn't realize it because I was waiting for the USDT free bet. I only found out later that they had credited it directly to my BTC balance.
