Let us say a few words about the course of Max Bet. When this bet was proposed, Ilves was +3 points ahead of Helsinki, with 3 games less and having a more difficult program. That is a self-evident bet. The reason I mention Helsinki as a contrast is simply because it was given by the Bucks as the 1st favorite. It should be noted that the other contenders for the 1st place (since the bet is WITHOUT THE PLAYFROWS) were in the middle of European obligations. That is, for laughs and cries, the odds.
Ilves has given 3 matches since then. The 1st was away against Lahti who lost 1-0 instead of winning 0-3 (lost), the 2nd was away against Helsinki where the match had to be relaxed 2-0 before Helsinki scored in a counter attack. At this point everything looked black and spidery, but it seems that the ref felt sorry for us and took care to restore hope by giving the delays a very strict penalty (I would describe it as a muff) to Ilves, which scored the final 1-1. Third and last match yesterday, where a soulful (sic) Ilves won the title at the headquarters of Honka with a terrible upset in a grand finale (karasic).
Score in these 3 matches: 1/1/1.
Not great, not terrible that is. In other words, without Ilves making an overrun with 3/3 victories, we are now in the following ranking situation:
If when I posted the bet I thought that the fair was @ 1.50 and after the first defeat for @ 1.75 (yes, this is the biggest joke: that while Ilves was defeated and her performance sorted instead of drifting, it was again of great value @ 2.50. .....), now I think it is for @ 1.18 maximum - waiting for the Turk to gel tomorrow.
Υγ. Caravabora Helsinki will not come out even 2nd.
That's all
