This is the start of the 2nd year hosting the EPL Betting Contest (See all Season 2017-2018 Posts and Results). More than last season, this contest will aim to help people grow on Steemit in hopefully a fun way. The contest will reward those who best beat the asian handicap. If you are not familiar with asian handicaps, it allows for 50%-50% situation in a football match so nobody can get an advantage by just taking the teams who are more likely to win.

Guaranteed Prize Pool
sponsorship for everyone that joins! The Dust Threshold is a rule on Steemit where payouts of 0.019$ or below get turned into dust to prevent spam. Dustsweeper is an initiative that helps to get those payouts above that level. Since current Steem Price does not allow me to upvote each contestant around 0.025$ without totally draining my voting power, I will sponsor everyone who enters around 0.200$ worth of dustsweeper funds.
Monthly Leaderboard Winner
. More prizes might be given on a monthly basis and a season Leaderboard will likely also be made and have some prizes.
