Own Team Argentina for the Football World Cup 2018

First Team you can bid for is: Team Argentina.

Coach: Jorge Sampaoli
Star player: Lionel Messi
World Cup best: Winners 1978, 1986

The Rules and Background

The Football World Cup 2018 will start on June 14, 2018 in Russia and we have 32 teams playing. The background of this bidding soccer game explained in a nutshell below.

• Steemians can bid a certain amount of SBD (via Steembay) to become owner of a certain team (they like or they think that will become champion!)
• For every Team playing the World Cup (32) we will publish a Steembay post during June 13 and June 14 where all Steemians have 7 days time to bid SBD for the dedicated team in one of the 32 posts
• The one with the highest bid after payout is the OWNER of this national team and has to pay the final amount to the account @sportsgeek
• We will set a minimum amount of 25SBD per team, if no one bids for one team the entire competition is in danger should a team become world champion that has not been won by a Steemian (however I guarantee someone will buy – if not you it will be me, sure no one wants that lol)! To avoid that – teams without bid after payout of these posts (7 days so June 20) can still be ”bought” throughout the World Cup until we reach the end of the group phase.
• All 32 final bids will be thrown into a total basket (so we should have ideally a minimum of 800 SBD in the pot - likely higher). All funds will remain in the @sportsgeek account.
• After 4 weeks of the World Cup the Owner of the Top 3 Team will be rewarded with 50% of the total basket of all winning team bids

Prizes

• First Place (World Champion): 30% of the pot (240 SBD if total pot is 800 SBD)

• Second Place: 15% of the pot (120 SBD if total pot is 800 SBD)

• Third Place: 5% of the pot (40 SBD if total pot is 800 SBD)

• The other 50% of the total basket will be paid to Charity!

The charities we support are @papilloncharity from South Africa and @steemarity from Austria.
