Hey @AndreiBN , took a look at the topic , from what i understand this competition is weekly and i need to wait until monday to participate right ? Tried to find another one to join since the tennis competition has ended. :happy:

@KenTouchMe , 

You are correct about this competition being a weekly one and able to join for the current week only if you start on monday and make your daily progress into the next day , BUT , you're just a little bit too late, as after a full year of having this competition non stop ( including the pandemic period ) , it will be paused starting next week , until further notice.

But there is still some good news , as a competiton that was running last year ( Last Longer betting - promo details here , with a few possible changes to the original one ) will resume most likely on the 2nd of November and i will host that one.

More details to follow!

Week 12.10 - 18.10 : Thursday daily update :

Good news is that we still have a couple survivours left at the end of round 3, and there are still some hope for at least one of them to finally go all the way this week.

Looking at the numbers , this is how it goes : from a total of 7 , yesterday 5 members busted , which leaves us today with 3 still fighting.

Below is the list with the qualified community members for Round 4 ( Thursday : 15.10 : 2.80 - 9/5 ) : 

Week 12.10 - 18.10 : Wednesday daily update :

Not quite remember if we ever had such a high percentage of members busting after 2nd round like it happened yesterday. Somem big surprises in the football and tennis matches made it a terrible day for the majority of you.

But looking at the bright side , there are still members who qualified for today and let's hope among them it will be our 1st Jackpot winner of this competition.

When we have a look at the stats after round 2 , we can see that : from a total of 25 , yesterday 18 members busted , which leaves us today with 7 still fighting.

Below is the list with the qualified community members for Round 3 ( Wednesday: 14.10 : 2.00 - 1/1 )

Week 12.10 - 18.10 : Tuesday daily update :

Wasn't the best opening round , as almost half of the participants busted yesterday , but let's just hope among those who are still in , there will be at least one who will go all the way this time and bag the Jackpot. Quite a diversity of sports in your selection , with football and tennis being again the favourite.

This is how the numbers look after 1st round  : out of a total of 45 entries , 20 left the competition before even warming up, leaving 25 members to continue their journey this week.

Below is the list with the qualified community members for Round 2 ( Tuesday 13.10 - 1.60 - 3/5 ).

@TheStrongMan , 

You need to read the competiton's rules ... :

The last question is posted here .

The 2020 French Open is set to come to a conclusion with a blockbuster final between two eternal rivals. Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal, who have won 36 Grand Slam titles combined, face off for the ultimate glory in Paris on Sunday.

Djokovic extended his winning record on clay this year to 11 straight matches, overcoming a late scare posed by Stefanos Tsitsipas in the semifinals.

At one point it looked as though it would be a comfortable straight-sets win for the Serb, as he served for the match in the third set and also had a match point. Up until that point, the World No. 1 had saved all the 10 break points he had faced.

But it proved to be 11th time lucky for Tsitsipas as he broke back and then broke again to take the set.

The Greek again broke at the business end of the fourth set to push the match to a decider. But Djokovic remained calm in the face of Tsitsipas' surge; the Serb showed his incredible resolve once again to win the fifth set comfortably, and book a place in his fifth Roland Garros final.

Novak Djokovic is aiming for the unprecedented feat of winning at least two titles at each Slam. But he faces the 'King of Clay', Rafael Nadal, who is on a mission of his own - to tie Roger Federer for the most Slams won by any male player in history.

Nadal faced some troubles too in closing out his semifinal match against the resilient Diego Schwartzman. But the Spaniard managed to get the job done in straight sets as he won the third set in a tiebreak, after losing a break's lead twice earlier.

Contrary to what the 6-3, 6-3, 7-6 scoreline might suggest, the match was tightly contested throughout. The first set lasted 67 minutes, with almost every game going to deuce.

Rafael Nadal is looking for a historic 13th title on his favorite Parisian clay. The Spaniard has never lost a final at Roland Garros, but the conditions this year are nothing like his previous 12 finals. And that could play a big role in deciding the outcome of the match.

The head-to-head between Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal currently stands at 29-26 in favor of Djokovic.

No two players in the history of men's tennis have played each other as many times as Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal have. But the rivalry hasn't been as close lately as the all-time records show.

Djokovic has won 14 out of the last 20 meetings between the pair, and has got the better of Nadal a record seven times on his favorite surface. The most recent meeting between Nadal and Djokovic was at the inaugural ATP Cup final earlier this year, which the Serb won easily.

Novak Djokovic also won his last match against Rafael Nadal at Roland Garros, back in 2015, as well as their last Slam meeting - at the 2019 Australian Open. However, the Spaniard has won all three of their most recent claycourt affairs.

Novak Djokovic has maintained a high level throughout the fortnight despite facing tough matches in the previous two rounds and dealing with neck problems.

Rafael Nadal on his part has reached his sixth Roland Garros final without dropping a single set. But the Spaniard has looked far from his best level, with a few parts of his game looking less than convincing.

Nadal's biggest problem seems to be his weakened defence off the backhand wing. One of the biggest counter-punching weapons throughout his career, the World No. 2's backhand has looked more vulnerable than ever this fortnight.

Nadal hasn't been able to use his crosscourt backhand to turn defence into offence as efficiently as he usually does, and that has prevented him from regaining the advantage in long rallies. The Spaniard has also shown a tendency to hit short when pushed wide, which Djokovic won't fail to capitalize on.

One of Novak Djokovic's biggest weapons this year on clay has been the drop shot. The Serb has been impeccable in killing the pace of a rally with precise side-spin drop shots, helping him keep the points short and conserve energy for the points he has to grind out.

In Nadal's prime, chasing down drop shots was never a problem given his incredible athleticism and foot-speed. But with age the 12-time champion has shown a considerable decline in speed, and now he often falters in the face of well-disguised droppers.

One play that Rafael Nadal would look to use to his advantage would be the short slice to Djokovic's backhand. The Serb, compromised with neck issues, struggled when given no pace on that side against Tsitsipas; that was one of the major reasons the Greek managed to stay afloat in the third and fourth sets.

However, given that Nadal is left-handed, a slice to Djokovic's backhand wouldn't come naturally to the Spaniard. Nadal would have to adjust his court positioning to run that play consistently.

It is no secret that this is the toughest test Rafael Nadal could have possibly faced in a Roland Garros final. On Parisian soil its greatest champion always has a chance, but given Novak Djokovic's supreme level of play this fortnight, he starts as the favorite.

Tennis match of the day : Novak Djokovic vs. Rafael Nadal ( Scheduled to start 15:00 CET - 11.10.2020 )

Question #15 for the daily giveaway on the 11.10.2020 is  :

How many "winners"  we will have , from both players, in total , in the match ?  ( Winner – (rally) a forcing shot that can not be reached by the opponent and wins the point; (service) a forcing serve that is reached by the opponent, but is not returned properly, and wins the point . Balls that are barely touched by the opponent are usually counted as winners - if the opponent directs the ball back toward the net and the ball reaches the net on the fly, the stroke is counted as a forced error not a winner. Balls that are tipped - directed towards the side fences or stands- are considered to be winners ).The official statistics will count for the outcome.

A. We will have , in total ,from both players ( Djokovic + Nadal ) , 65 or less"winners"  in this match.

B. 66-67-68-69-70 "winners" , from both players ( Djokovic + Nadal ), in total , in this match.
