Football Gamblers Challenge

Post by Selby White »

The Admin team on the forum are constantly looking for new ideas to keep the forum interesting and I've been toying with a game for those that enjoy a gamble or prediction games.

Everyone starts with say £100 (imaginary cash)and we put up a few matches each week with odds for home win, away win or draw and they can bet as much or little as they like (from their pot)on however many matches they fancy. Nothing if they want.

Play over set number of weeks and the winner is one with most money in their pot at the end. Obviously blow it all before and you are out.

Looking for a minimum of 10 contestants to make it worthwhile and maybe start first weekend in February until early march (over 5 weekends).

So if it's something you would have a crack at let us know in the comments.

That's the good thing with this game, if you miss a weekend it doesn't cost you, never know could turn out an advantage not to bet.
I'll be putting matches up a few days before so you may catch some.
