#37Tough, tough board today, it is so hard to gauge a team's intentions at this stage, everyone is doing the calculations and looking at the calendar. If I wasn't committed to playing 1 pick per day, I might have passed.

#39I sure know how to pick 'em: another red card match, actually not sure it didn't help my play, because prior to it, Real seemed flat. Any way, grateful for the win.

#46Tavares out for Rubin-Maribor game and Rondon on the bench. This could end very bad for Maribor. Now Rubin (-1) even (-1.5) has much more value.Comment -

#47Wish they all came in like that. Actually somewhat surprised at Kiev's defense, I had them to win this game comfortably, but either way, grateful with a 1st half over.

#50Ok, this is not my most confident pick, but I wanted to take an early game I like, so that if it goes sour, I can play one more from the later batch.

#52Listen friend, I don't want to be rude, but I just can't give my thoughts on every game when people ask, I don't have the time and it's not why I'm here, I just want to post a max of 2 games a day and see how it goes. I'm sure you understand. Because you're the first one to ask, I did like Villareal-1 AH and Wolfsburg game over 3. Good luck with all your plays.Comment -

#53Frustrating loss, 8' min goal and the nothing, Vests could just not break through and capitalize on corners given, in hindsight I should have known, the line was a bit too good @ -110 and never moved all day. Torn for my back up play, like Villareal-1 but too much juice, like Glenavon 1st half over 1.5, but didn't have enough time to look at that match, gonna stick with the Germans.

#55dude that was ridiculous - Hamburg should of scored at least 2, maybe 3 or 4 in final 20 mins! was absolute domination! Wolfsburg didnt even mount an attack from when I started watching at 65-70min mark. Illicevic hit crossbar, Calhanoglu, Lasogga and Arslan all had good chances! really bad luck, I considered under 3 this morning as Diego and Van der Vaart werent involved, but I'd of been shiittting it! Very impressed by Hamburg, I really thought they'd struggle without van der VaartComment -

#56New Dutch coach has done well in no time, Lasogga can stand in for Van der Vaart as well, I thought they even deserved 1 or 2 pk's, but that's how it goes sometime, too bad it was on my final play of the day.Comment -

#58Made me sweat for it a bit, to be honest, to not convert again against a team like Cardiff until the 86th minute..... Almost took Ramsey to score @ +200 instead of the -1 hc, wish I had, but grateful for the win regardless.

#61Well, I'm quite speechless, Liverpool, with no other commitments but the league, not only doesn't win, but allows Hull to score 3 times. I would almost start to believe in bookie fixes, nothing imo pointed to anything other than a Pool win. I even decided against the over, because I had this as a 0-2, 0-3 type game. Shocked.

#65utter rubbish, premier league being fixed? biggest tosh ive heard on here not only is it impossible but ur not giving hull the credit they deserve, liverpool away to hull was not a sure win by any standardsComment -

#66What's the matter Giz? A few posts above I knew my stuff, and now it's utter rubbish?
First off, I didn't say EPL was fixed, I said this result ALMOSt made me believe so.
Secondly, I never took credit away from Hull or said they didn't deserve the win.
Third, nothing is a sure thing in betting, as jhh again found out today.
Now, since you are intent on schooling me on the play I lost, let's look at it.
Second place Pool were playing middle of the pack Hull. Pool were fresh, no European commitments, Suarez has been hot since serving his suspension. Hull couldn't even score against 10 men Palace, and they had like 3 shots on target the whole game. Actually, prior to today, Hull had only scored 4 (!) goals at home in 6 games, they just about doubled that today, and imo Mignolet is a top goalie. Pool had only lost 1 away game prior to today in 10 matches, and that was against Arsenal, yeah, they haven't been perfect on the road, but they weren't losing either. Hull is where it is, thanks to it's hard work and defensive displays, with Liverpool sure to dominate possession (as they did, 62% for the game), it was widely expected that Hull would play tight, and Pool would eventually break through and the most common projected scoreline was 0-2. Other than friendlies, Hull has never beaten Pool in 16 (!) attempts, and nothing pointed to that happening today. Now I didn't like Rodgers pairing Moses and Sterling, and I hated seeing Coutinho and Aspas on the bench, it still doesn't explain this result to me. Good for Hull, they were amazingly efficient with a conversion rate of 23% as opposed to Pool's 11%, it's still a shocking upset.
I never said Pool was going to murder them, had I thought so I would have played the over @ -110, I anticipated a tight, low scoring game. Now, the only argument I read anywhere pre kick off in favor of Hull was that Pool was a heavily bet "public play", as I'm sure was City and Chelsea. They came through, Pool didn't and I lost what I thought was a safe handicap @ -1. Suarez had 5 shots and came up empty.
You want to tell me you gave Hull a shot at winning today, you would have had to post it before the game. Next time you call my plays rubbish, you're going on the ignore list for good, chimp.Comment -

Not sure if the one-a-day play with one backup is working for me, yesterday I kept second guessing my first play, and it kinda did me in. Maybe should change to 2 with 1 backup, will stick with this for a few more days and see how it goes.

#70I can pretty much always find a game or an angle to take, problem with this experiment is that I put a lot of pressure on myself trying to find the one play, maybe if I had two, I would stop over analyzing things.Comment
