Football Gamble - Game 1 - Final Results Added

Post by Selby White »

18 members have put their names forward to have a crack at our new game and it starts next weekend (anyone else fancies ago you have until friday to enter).

Rules -
Each player starts with £100 in their pot.
They can bet as much as they like (from their ever growing or decreasing pot)on nominated matches.
There is no obligation to bet, players can choose to bet on as many matches as they like or not at all.
There will be 4 or 5 matches each Saturday & Sunday (posted early in the week).
Bets will be accepted up to midnight day before match (eg - Friday for Saturday games).
The Game will run for 5 weekends.

Any questions please ask


As its a new game to the forum any feedback on ways we can improve is very much appreciated.

Also I'm developing a spreadsheet to calculate the running totals (and make life easy) so if you spot any errors don't shoot me just let me know.
Thanks
Mick (Selby White)

You've picked some right buggers, haven't you ?
No obvious punts from the off so these could go any which way ..

Round One - Saturday 3rd Feb
Leeds v Cardiff Away-2/1 £5
Norwich v Boro Draw-2/1 £5
Rangers v Hibs Draw-5/2 £5

Round Two - Sunday 4th Feb
Liverpool v Spurs Away-5/2 £5
Athletico Madrid v Valencia Away-7/1 £5



Just about all of them could end up as draws and yet, despite every match starting out from that position, it's a relatively rare scoreline.
