I never learned so much about EPL relegation as I did trying to earn a few sats on this bet. Haha

6% isn't a bad return for a day.

@coinsreporter has turned into an excellent predyx trader. He is killing it. We created a monster.

well, it isn't 6%... fees + cut, and then there's the non-zero risk Everton scores twice and undermines the entire thing. I got "pennies before steamroller" vibes anyway

You're right. It looks like coins will make 3% on his 5k shares that moved the price from 6% down to 1%.

I guess decent, but risk-adjusted... uh-hu, no way: Like, only one out of 33 times the other team would flip the score and West Ham scores one goal (update: as they just did!)?
nope, WAY too aggressive

I don't know how it works in EPL but in many other sports teams that don't have anything to play for the final game of the year often rest their stars and let younger players get playing time. Tottenham were strong favourites going into the game even though they have a worse record than Everton. I wonder if that's the reason why.
