Well played everyone! @grayruby said last that he had enjoyed this Olympics pool more than the Olympics itself! I thought he was just exaggerating a bit. But while my fingers were calculating the results, I was enjoying being a referee who looked over one of the best bouts in sports history.

Initially, it was @TNStacker and and @Carresan who were exchanging top places with @Undisciplined and @IamSINGLE fighting it hard to come on top. But then came a storm of many back to back sudden blows from @Undisciplined (I mentioned it here #645348) and both @TNStacker and @Carresan had to go in defensive mode. A amazingly fantastic and superb come back that was!! A true Champion 🏆 @Undisciplined bags Gold 🥇.

That's not the show alone for once @IamSINGLE came crashing and reached to the top place leaving behind everyone with a very good margin. But, this is the nature of the game, @undisciplined again made a come back in Badminton to be on No. 1. Spot. That's not all @IamSINGLE also made a come back with a gold in Golf and lead the charts once again. But, it was the third last game where I just had to accept that @Undisciplined is a precog!! @IamSINGLE after giving a tough fight bags a Silver. You're a fighter for sure.

The fight for Bronze was even more interesting as it was being done between more than 2 stackers. @Carresan @grayruby and 0xbitcoiner all were going up and down with every game. But @TNStacker with his show in the initial games of the pool just couldn't be caught by any of them. @TNStacker bags a Bronze 🥉 this time.

I must tell you all that I feel highly obliged and grateful to all of you for showing immense love to this effort. A big shout out to @Turdinthepunchbowl for making a big contribution to the pool while he couldn't participate.

Thanks for doing it. The next pool will likely be @grayruby's NFL survivor pool, which was a blast last year.

Wow, that is truly horrible.

reply

That was also me trying to figure out how to get out the draft that Pub paused and into the one where you were making off like a bandit with Allen and Mahomes. Haha.

reply

It's truly humbling to have won so overwhelmingly.

reply

Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉 Well played! I'll call you from now our 'Master Precog', if you please allow me!!

Any suggestions for future polls?

Thanks, and I appreciate the new title. I better add "Mater Precog" to my bio.

Congrats @Undisciplined, all luck no discipline lol

That should be my catch phrase.

I love the idea of having a weekly post for betting tips.

Wow! Sorry to be a late comer!

Congratulations @Undisciplined and @TNStacker for the win!

I've enjoyed it as the best thing apart from learning about Bitcoin here on SN! You've nailed it @Coinsreporter! This ceremony thing is awesome!!

reply

Here comes our Silver 🥈 Medalist!

To confer the medal, I'd like to call @siggy47 to do the honours!

I hail everyone @BitcoinAbhi @suraz @grayruby zap it #645959 here to make it to the 2nd position!

reply

Congrats @Undisciplined and @IamSINGLE. I think someone should make a goat necklace emoji for @Undisciplined

reply

It's a little early for that.

We should keep track of who's won what, though. That could be a very fun element of this territory.

For now, the GOAT is @tnuts420 (I love the internet).

reply

I have updated to add the cricket pool and bookmarked.

Definitely tnuts has won the most sats by far. He got 310k sats in the NFL pool.

reply

That should definitely be the tie-breaker, but now Siggy and I are right there.

Congrats!

Congrats to @Undisciplined @IamSINGLE and @TNStacker.

Winning an Olympic diploma is such an honor! 🤠 Looking forward to competing again in 4 years.

reply

You don't have to wait 4. Winter Olympics in Italy in two years.

reply

That's right! It completely slipped my mind. I don't typically tune in for the winter games. Come to think of it, the Paralympics are happening at the end of August.

reply

We also hve commonwealth games in between! We have world cups! We have grand slams. We have grand prixes! We have so much! Our effort needs to bigger and better!

reply

Thank you so much for being part of this experimental yet awesome ride! I have some bigger plans. I'll come up with them in some time!

Thanks agains for making it successful!

reply

Thanks!

reply

Grate job. Congratulations to @Undisciplined for his First gold medal @IamSINGLE for his first silver medal and @TNStacker for his first brown medal. I hope it will continue further. Thanks @Coinsreporter for a lovely pool.

reply

Thanks @BitcoinAbhi! Thanks for participating! I hope you won't miss the games next time like you did in this pool. It will continue further for sure! Just wait some time!

reply

I was busy. But next time I wil try to be the Number one😜

reply

Thanks💪🏾

reply

Congrats to the three winners! Big thank you to @Coinsreporter for running this amazing Olympic pool. I am sure that there has been a big job. GG!

reply

Well played bro! Yes, it took me around 5 hours calculate the results! But as I said, I enjoyed it, so it's not a big job!

I've some huge things coming up in future! Stay with me!

reply

Thanks for the sats!! It’s interesting I have finished 4th. It fits really well with the Spanish team( 17 fourth places and 18 medals) . We have had so many fourth places!!! 🤣🤣

reply

Amazing job running the pool. Well done.

Congrats to @Undisciplined @IamSINGLE and @TNStacker on being the first ever Stacker Sports Olympic Pool Medalists. Hopefully we will all still be around SN when the 2026 Winter Olympics roll around.

reply

Thank you so much! You are my inspiration! We can't wait till then! We'll have such pools for every big international multisport tournament.

reply

Hahaha, Winter Olympics will be challenging. Not very popular in Spain to be honest. But I will do my best when times comes to support the pool.

reply

Congratulations to gold winner @Undisciplined, silver winner @IamSINGLEand brown winner @TNStacker. Pool was great. I enjoyed to be a part of it. Great work by @Coinsreporter. Thanks for this great pool.

reply

Thanks @Athena! I hope the next time you don't miss games or events! Thanks for participating!

reply

Thanks!

reply

Congratulations to the winners.🎊 I really appreciate the way @Coinsreporter finished this Olympics pool. Happy to be at 7th place. Do make plans for some more sports pool. Football leagues are starting soon.

reply

Well played @suraz! You would've even won this if you just not missed a few pool posts! Also, @Undisciplined shoed it that in sich pools single game prediction can do it for you. There were 20 pool posts and from every pool post stackers can win maximum of 12 points. If someone just did a bit of analysis and could come with 4 points each game on an average would've won it! Or, you only need to predict 6 post correctly tto be at 72 points!

reply
reply

Great job running the pool again! I can't wait to see what's next.

reply

Thanks! I'll coming up with another pool very soon! I started thia pool as an experiment thing and just at the very last moment. It could've been bigger and better only if I started it a bit earlier. I've learnt many lessons by this and the cricket pool. I can only promise you that the next pools will be much bigger and better.

Thanks for participating. If you just didn't miss a few games, you could've been a winner as well.

reply

The Biggest WTF Moment 😜The Biggest WTF Moment 😜

I forgot to mention this in the post. I was just exhausted after 5 hours of calculation!!

I deliberately included Women's 66 Kg Boxing event (#631463) in the pool because that Man Boxer (Imane Khelif) from Algeria was competing in the same event. I thought that most of you would catch it and select him/her (I'm confused) as the winner. But surprisingly, noone caught it and selected other (real women) players to win!

Only 0xbitcoiner picked that photocopy (not even close) of a woman and he/she went on to win the Gold. Along with he/she, 0xbitcoiner also won the medal in that event.

I wanna ask you all, after all of the reading from the news, how you didn't recognise that Imane Khelif was competing in that event?? Or, you recognised but just didn't select him/her to show your protest? Did @0xbitcoiner support a man 🥊women in a single punch?

@grayruby @siggy47 @Undisciplined @TNStacker @BitcoinAbhi @suraz @MANI @Carresan @Athena

reply

I heard that the betting sites weren't letting people bet on those events. That must be why I missed it.

reply

In case you knew, you would pick him??!! 😂 Everything is fair in love and ~Stacker_sports pools.

reply

I'm in it to win it. This isn't a morality contest.

reply

I like your attitude and honesty as well! But how come we all couldn't catch it? Most probably everyone was doing copying someone else's picks and adjusting just one or two pics and pasting them! Nobody just gave a bit to 2 minutes of analysis before picking the predictions?

reply

I was going off of the available odds, whenever I could find them.

reply

I didn't know that was the name or weight class of the male boxer at the time and to be honest I was just guessing in most of selections.

reply

In case you knew, would you choose her in your picks?

reply

I am not sure. I was hoping that boxer would lose.

reply

Surprisingly there was no contest for him/her there. The male boxer won all his bouts without any sweat. Just look at the muscular physique! Who would call him a woman??

https://m.stacker.news/45494

reply

That's a princess. 🙊

reply

I'm convinced that no other stacker realized that the Algerian was the transsexual everyone was talking about. I picked Algeria because it was obvious she was going to win. I completely disagree with this participation. In fact, I read later that she had failed the pre-Olympic exams due to testosterone levels, but was somehow authorized anyway

reply

So, you've picked him/her in all your senses!! 😉 I just wanted to know. It's a game so everything's just fair.

Not the pre-olympics exam but she was made to sit out of World Championship by International Boxing Association. Read it here! #637969

reply

That's probably what I read and was getting mixed up about. Thanks for clearing that up.

reply

To be honest , I wasn’t aware she/he was in any of the pools. I have read about the case but I didn’t realise she was in the pool.

reply

In case you knew, would you choose her in your picks?

reply

Probably yes! There is clearly a difference with the other contestants

reply

I thought She might not be allowed to take part in the finals. 🤔

reply

Wow just wow! You guys are having great fun! Well done @coinsreporter the next time I'll be a part of the fun too.

Congratulations to @Undisciplined @IamSINGLE and @TNStacker!! Looking forward to be competing with all of you.
