Gamblers League

Post by Selby White »

Following the success of the Gamblers League we will be running a 2nd competition of this all play all home and away format (will run from early August until late December).

Basically it will involve playing the other competitors in head to head games (Home & Away) with 3 pts for a win and 1pt for a draw.
Yes an actual League.

If more than 10 players enter we will split into two divisions (based on the previous league positions) with promotion and relegation, otherwise it will be all in the same league.

You can see how it works here (last season) - http://www.lufctalk.com/forums/viewtopi ... =13&t=6590

At the conclusion of the group stage grand prix points at the usual rate will be awarded to each group (eg, 25pts winner, 18pts 2nd, etc).

How it works -
1. Each Round of fixtures I will publish a number of matches with odds.
2. 48 hours prior to the first fixture the Home Player selects 4 games for their match.
(A couple of our players live in totally different time zones so please be flexible with times, can't expect them to place bets in the middle of the night).
3. The Home player also places bets of £40, £30, £20 & £10 on those games.
4. Prior to KO the Away player bets (£40, £30, £20 & £10) on the same games.

5. Although the away player can select the same bets they should use their money different (no identical bets).
eg, Home player puts £40 on a particular Home the away player if fancies the same result should use one of their other 3 betting amounts on that game.
However if going for a different result its ok to use the £40 (hope that makes sense).

Note - We let this rule slip earlier in the game and I posted asking players to double check their bets. Although I can do without the extra admin if it happens I will switch bets around (if its the £30 or £40 will swap them, if its £10 or £20 will swap them.


Any questions please ask.
