Sportsblock Contests - Big Week of Contests This Week

avatar

Right then. A lot happening on SportsBlock this week so let me run through it all before I forget something important and someone screams at me in the comments.

🏆 Last Man Standing — The Final Four

We started with 40 people. Forty. Every single one of them convinced they had a system.
We’re down to four.
After Gameweek 31, the survivors are:
@gwajnberg
@onemanonwrite
@valentin86
@zusi78

That’s it. Thirty-six eliminations, weeks of picks, and these four have somehow navigated the Premier League’s chaotic schedule without once picking a team that decided Saturday was a good day for a draw.
The prize waiting for whoever survives to the end: 200 HIVE + 5,000 MEDALS. None of them have submitted their pick for this week yet. Probably staring at the fixtures sweating. Good.
If you got eliminated — better luck in the next edition. We’ll run it again.

🏏 IPL Boundary BlackJack — Round 2

Round 2 of the IPL Boundary BlackJack is underway. If you missed Round 1, the concept is simple: predict the boundary count. If you think cricket is just people standing in a field doing nothing for five days, you’re thinking of Test cricket. The IPL is chaos and boundaries fly everywhere. There’s money in that chaos.
5,000 MEDALS up for grabs. Free entry. Runs March through May 2026. Organised by the excellent @talesfrmthecrypt who knows more about cricket than I will ever know about anything.
Round 2 details are up on the site. Get in.

⛳ The Masters Golf Contest — NEW

This one I’m proud of. SportsBlock’s first ever golf contest, and we’ve launched it for arguably the biggest golf event on the planet.
The Masters 2026 — Augusta National — April 9–12
Here’s how it works:
1. Pick 3 golfers from the field
2. Your combined odds must total 90/1 or greater — so no just picking Rory, Scottie and Scheffler and calling it a day
3. Lowest combined score at the end wins
4. If any of your picks miss the cut — you’re eliminated
5. Tiebreaker: predict the winning score
Prize pool funded by SportsBlock (200 HIVE + 10,000 MEDALS total):

PlacePrize
🥇 1st6,000 MEDALS
🥈 2nd2,500 MEDALS
🥉 3rd1,500 MEDALS

Registration is open now until April 9th. Head to SportsBlock and get your three picks in. The odds requirement means you actually have to think rather than just copying whatever Golf Monthly tells you.

🌍 World Cup Contest — Coming Soon

We’re also building out a World Cup contest. Details to follow shortly — but if you’re already on SportsBlock, you’ll hear about it first. This is the brain child of @fullcoverbetting so it is bound to be tasty.

Four contests. One platform. Zero transaction fees. Actual prizes. If you want an imstant contest try our predictioms markets for Sport only on the platform.
If you’re not on SportsBlock yet, now’s probably the time.

Got my picks in for Masters. Not really sure what the tactics should be but have gone for 3 'middle or roaders' rather than the short odds and a long shot or two

It’s a tough one but I will give you this stat which might have you rethink your strategy . In the last 50 years no golfer outside the top 20 in the world rankings has won the US masters . At first i thought Danny Willet or Sergio Garcia but they were top 20 at the time

Hi @blanchy,
I am thinking to write the next chess tournament series via sportsblocks.app instead of peakd. It could bring a lot of traffic (10 rounds, so 20 posts plus any reports from other users). Would you be open to sponsor the prizepool?
And can I pick "chess" as the category of sport when creating a chess community?
PS: Please ignore, I just saw that the platform takes mandatory 5%. I´d rather give out those 5% to the players.
Anyway I will use the sportbites for reminders, etc.

No problem. Yes we added Chess as a sport after we spoke. One thing some of the fantasy league community are doing is using our predictions model for head to heads for people to bet on. Could be an option for you. You can used another frontend for the posts which will not take the 5% but it won't be curated with our own native currency. What you lose in HP as a beneficary you make up with MEDALS.

Understood, unfortunately I can´t quantify how many MEDALs we would get let alone how much a MEDAL will be worth in 3 months. Given my experience with HE-tokens I better not speculate but stick with Hive.
