    1. You have to use betfair for your odds, if its on btfair you can bet on it, you can lay aswell. No trading though.
    2. 7 bets a week. You can use those bets any time you want. & in one day, or one every day. Your choice.
    3. You can bet 75% of your bank(if you want to lay big odds you need a decent bank
    4. No horse racing or greyhounds betting allowed.

    Betting week will star on Monday. You cant carry bets over for the week..

    http://www.betfair.com

    they do have some accumalators on betfair. But its just in a certain market i.e premiership only, champions league etc. You cant bet on a premiership team with a championship team.

    Everyone will start with 100euro. If your interest stick your name down. Any suggestions for changes etc are welcome.

    I'm in. How are the prices going to be checked. I mean, if a price moves, are people going to just say they got the higher price. Case in point West-Ham Spurs match odds on the final day of the Premiership season. I suppose most movements are marginal whereas that was a one-off. Maybe just use odds from Oddschecker?

    I'm in! Making my inaugural bet for the night too! I am going to lay the Cardiff win tonight against QPR, odds currently available are 1.66.

    €50 on.

    Also I suggest that this is self managed, anyone who wants to cheat, we can just ban or ignore from the thread.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,853 ✭✭✭Glenbhoy


    Go on then, i'm in - what timeframe we talking about here?

    well whenever someone posts their pick and odds it should be the odds at that time. Obviously it can change, but if some wants to cheat in this and but down higher odds then i dont really care. Its only a fun thing.


    Raskolnikov - It starts on Monday unfortunatly. See if we can drum up a bit more interest. I'll stick up a thread on Sunday or something for people to stick up their bets.

    Glenbhoy - I dont know. Since probaly the majority of bets will be football until May. But by Christmas people could lose interest, but if they dont we'll finish it in May.

    Bugger, didn't see this. Is it to late to join?

    If not Pigheads gonna stick 20 Points on Hartlepool HT-FT tonight @ 3.0. Its an FA Cup replay. In the original fixture Rochdale were extremely fortunate to hold Hartlepool to a 1-1 draw. Rochdale are a poor side(They lie just outside therelegation zone in League 2). I reckon Hartlepool can win this comfortably enough tonight. Hopefully they can put the game to bed in the 1st half.

    Bet Placed: 20 Points Hartlepool HT-FT@3.0( From Betfair)
    Points Remaining: 80

    Ah Fcuk! Sorry Chucky had a blonde moment there, didn't read about the 7 bet rule. If its not too late Pighead would like to scratch the Gary Coles Top 5 Finish and Gary Coles to Win Mastercard Masters bets, thus leaving me with 4 bets. If this is against the rules then so be it!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,341 ✭✭✭✭Chucky the tree


    haha, nope thats not a problem.

    You're not the only one to have the blonde moment (at least you have the excuse of never sleeping, judging by your posts:D ). But I will have courage in my convictions and let them all run!
