in #contest7 years ago

Thanks to @nicnas, @miniature-tiger and @stickchumpion for the support
This allowed me to add a jackpot prize pool from now on !

As bad as my picks were last week, there's only one way to go but up!

AFC Bournemouth Under 3.25
Huddersfield Town +0.25
Watford -0.5
Manchester United -1.5
West Bromwich Albion -0.25

There are still 36 rounds left, plenty of chances to get a win !

Did you see that, according to the FPL site, Alexis Sanchez is back and available for the Liverpool game on Sunday? That will throw a wrench in things. Glad I didn't make a pick on that game.

And how in the world do I find a way to fit his fat 11.9m salary on my team!

West Ham+0.25
Crystal Palace -0.5
Southampton -0.25

Thanks.
But I would like to know more about handicaps. What it means by "Teamname + handicap"
And also "Team name Under/Over handicap".

It will help me predict better. I did these bets without knowing understanding anything.

I would appreciate your help ..

The team name + handicap is just a way to write down the bets in the comments so they are easy for me to put in excel.

Asian handicaps are in essense the same as NBA handicaps.
Spurs -8.5 = Spurs need to win with 9 points for the bet to win

Only in soccer there is a draw that happens so in soccer handicaps sometimes you will win or lose half your bet.

If draw was possible and frequent in NBA Spurs -8.25 would mean half your stake is returned when spurs win exactly by 8 points.
in soccer -0.25 means half your stake is returned in case of a draw.

Asian handicaps can be checked here

I hope this helps a bit

Yeah. It helped . I have started to figure it out.
For now, let's see what my prediction results in.
I will understand it almost completely when all the games are finished.

Thanks a lot
