Gamble Game 9 (regular format)

Post by Selby White »

Gamble Game 9 will start Friday 2nd August.
Following suggestions from others we will be trying a new format.

The game will now run for 40 matches split into 4 rounds of 10 matches.

Hope those been involved so far will return, and remember if anyone else fancies joining its open to all forum members.

Keep your eye open as matches will be added to this post as we go.

Rules -
Each player has £100 added to their pot prior to each round (£400 in total).
The £100 must be used each round or lost.
More can bet in rounds 2, 3 & 4 by using any winnings from previous rounds or alternately you can save it.
Players can choose to bet on as many matches as they like (full amount on one match if they like).
Rounds will be based over a weekend (Friday to Monday) or occasional midweek matches may be used.
Bets can be placed anytime prior to a match kicking off.
No editing of bets once placed, bet on the round and that's it (whether one or all 10 matches).
Postponed matches will be null and void with money returned to players pot.
Cup Matches will be the 90 minute score.
The winner will be the player with most cash in their pot at the end of the 4 rounds.
Any disputes "the organiser is always right"

Points will be awarded towards our 2019 Grand Prix list as follows - 1st place - 25 points; 2nd -18; 3rd - 15; 4th -12; 5th - 10; 6th - 8; 7th - 6; 8th - 4; 9th - 2; 10th - 1.
The Grand prix is runs until December 31st 2019.
