Makybe's Bookie Thread

[Makybe Diva]

This thread has been conducted on other forums and most likely this forum, however, for the next two months or so, I will provide markets on the big Melbourne markets and you can bet on them and see how you go. Everyone who wishes to participate begins with $5,000 and once you have lost the $5,000, you are out of the competition. Here is my first market for the Caulfield Cup on Saturday. Feel free to place your bets. Please note that all bets must be in by 12.00pm on raceday and bets are only for the win. Thankyou. The makrte will be in the next thread due to a limit of characters.

Thanks for all the bets guys. Didn't realise the comp would be so popular!

Usually, I will give th market on a Thursday night and change the makrte on a Fridat afternoon or Saturday morning. Pretty busy both times so I will do my bets! Anyway, good luck to everybody.

EL SEGUNDO $2.80



bit short there makybe, currently $4.50 with the fixed odds mob & >$7.00 on the tabs

[Makybe Diva]

Now you know why I had Railings so short in the first place. The official results were:

9. Railings- Flew from the back
4. Eye Popper- Ran second most of way. Got over the top of Mummify who was running first most of the way
1. Mummify- Led most of the way and died the last 50m to finish third.

The official results will be soon. El Segundo had no luck in the race.

[Makybe Diva]

Makybe Diva sorry to be a pain in the ass but can I retract the $500 on Sir Dex and just leave it at $1000 on both Railings and Vouvray.
I will let you this time but I will never let anyone again.

[Sportz]

Raw Instinct up to his normal tricks. :D

Raw, you do realise you wouldn't be able to do that with a regular bookie. ;)

[Makybe Diva]

I have not yet calculated individual results, however, the forum members bet $50,800 and won $18,330 and I had a profit of $32,470.

Congratulations to Horse Whisperer, Kanga, Bl4dez, Chuck, Raw Instinct, A4Brianp and Sportz who backed the winner Railings. If I missed anyone, please notify me within the next 24 hours so I can correct any errors.

[Makybe Diva]

I realise he would not be able to do that with a normal bookie but I am a nice guy and I will allow just for this week only.

[Sportz]

Don't worry. I'm used to Raw always changing his mind in the comps I run. :D

[bl4dez]

damm i have $50 on railing and eye poper

Nice work Raw...anyone else with the Eye Popper Cups double @ $569 feel slightly gutted ? lol...I think it ran about 2800...

How about Nothin Leica a Falcons run?...gr8 race

[Sportz]

Makybe Diva,

What other races will you be including??? Just the main race of each day during the carnival???

[Chrome Prince]

In the interest of fair play, you have me down as loss $0, I think it should be loss $2900 or thereabouts, I should only have around $2100 left to play with.

Cheers.

[Makybe Diva]

Makybe Diva,

What other races will you be including??? Just the main race of each day during the carnival???

Yes Sportz, I will only be covering the main races. I will be giving you a list of the races I am covering today sometime. Too much work to do more than one or two races and at the moment, my back and body is killing me as I have the flu.

[Makybe Diva]

In the interest of fair play, you have me down as loss $0, I think it should be loss $2900 or thereabouts, I should only have around $2100 left to play with.

Cheers.

Yes my mistake there Chrome Prince. I belive you actually lost $2800. I will fix this if I can edit posts. If I cannot, could an admin please do it for me please.

[Raw Instinct]

No big deal on the $500 for Sir Dex mate take it off if you like I amnot here to upset anyone about it when I had a real good chance to sit down and look at the race I only liked Vouvray and Railings everything was so rushed the last couple of days hadn't really had a chance to read everything I wanted to.

1. Mummify- Led most of the way and died the last 50m to finish third.

The official results will be soon. El Segundo had no luck in the race.

just reading through the thread.......

"and died the last 50m to finish third"..... unintentional i know but not cool

[Raw Instinct]

In defense that didn't happen until after the race was over well over to I might add would have been a couple of hundred metres after the post.

[Makybe Diva]

just reading through the thread.......

"and died the last 50m to finish third"..... unintentional i know but not cool

Oops. Didn't notice that. I find it hard that Nikolic reckons he heard something with 100 metres to go.

[mad]

Oops. Didn't notice that. I find it hard that Nikolic reckons he heard something with 100 metres to go.
Please Explain?

Turns out he was right and seeing he was there?????????

[Makybe Diva]

Mate, if the injury occured at the 100m mark, the horse would have struggled to finish th race. The injury was extremly serious and often happens when horses pull up and thishas to be the case.

[Lady Frisco]

Mate, if the injury occured at the 100m mark, the horse would have struggled to finish th race. The injury was extremly serious and often happens when horses pull up and thishas to be the case. I know I dont belong in this thread, sorry for the intrusion, but just wanted to help clear up the confusion.

Taken from The Age (http://www.theage.com.au/news/horse-racing/mummify-put-down/2005/10/16/1129401135001.html)
Jockey Danny Nikolic knew Mummify was in trouble when he heard a sound like a "cannon shot" as he was pulling up the six-year-old after his brave third to Railings and Eye Popper.

"It was about a furlong after the post," Nikolic said.

"The horse was that stuffed after giving all he had, then I heard what sounded like a cannon shot … I pulled him up after 50 yards."

"He snapped his leg. I jumped straight off him and it's just shocking, terrible," Nikolic said.

[Dale]

XCELLENT $6.50 x $600.

[pjjp]

I try $ 1000 on outback prince and confectioner.

[brave chief]

Makybe Diva $1,887
Lad of the Manor $400
Confectioner $300
Super Kid $300

[Makybe Diva]

I know I dont belong in this thread, sorry for the intrusion, but just wanted to help clear up the confusion.

The quote about Nikolic confirms what I am saying. Originally, Nikolic said that it could have gone with 100m to go when the horse brushed the fence but this would have ben purely impossible for the horse to finish. The only time it began to snap was after the race when the horse was pulling up.

[Makybe Diva]

Well, what a win by the champion mare Makybe Diva in the W.S Cox Plate. A decent loss for me with results coming later this afternoon.

hi makybe diva, you have me as betting $3000 but i only bet $2500

[Sportz]

Makybe Diva,

Could you possibly list everyone by how much they actually have in the kitty. For example, you have me down as "gain $300". I think it would be better if you had me down as $5300. It would make it easier to compare everyone's position and we would all know exactly how much we had left to bet with.

[Chrome Prince]

I have $2,200 in the kitty.

[bl4dez]

i have no idea

[Sportz]

Which illustrates my point.

bl4dez, I think you're on $3100.

Yes, your bank balance is $2,387.

[Makybe Diva]

I have done several markets on my computer, although, I need people to vote which race to bet on. The choices are the Salinger Stakes, Mackinnon Stakes or the Victoria Derby. At the moment, I am thinking the Derby or the Salinger, but please vote.

[pumakid]

Im easy, probably prefer the Derby or all 3 if possible?

[bl4dez]

salinger

[Horse Whisperer]

MACKINNON, JUST SO THERES ONE FOR EACH.

[Sportz]

Pendragon $450 @ $3.10
Headturner $350 @ $4.20

[Makybe Diva]

Luckily, for you Sportz, those bets are not accepted as they were after 12.00pm AEST. Break the rules again and money will be deducted. I am harsh :(

The Forum loss has decreased due to Kanga's huge win and he leads the competition by a country mile. Starting Tuesday, if you dio not bet each time I offer a market, you will lose $5000 as too many people are not betting to stay in the competition. The minimum bet will now become $300.

Starting Tuesday, if you dio not bet each time I offer a market, you will lose $5000 as too many people are not betting to stay in the competition. The minimum bet will now become $300.

Makybe Diva, are you saying I am now eliminated because I only have $200 left in the kitty and the minimum bet is $300???

If that's the case, you've changed the rules.

[Makybe Diva]

Yes, I have changed them so people do not purposefully not bet to win. Chrome Prince, in your case, as long as you bet I'm happy. I am trying to stop people who have a couple of thousand dollars from not betting at all. You still have to bet but you do not have to bet all of your $200.

[Chrome Prince]

No worries, I'm going to have the final $200 on the Cup on one horse.

Waiting for the final weather prediction.

[Duritz]

I've just seen the comp now, can I jump in late?

If yes, I'll outlay $5000 in one go, on 5 x $1000 win bets in the Cup. They are on:

Demerger
Dizelle
Leica Falcon
Mr. Celebrity
Xcellent

Is that OK?

[Makybe Diva]

Unfortunately, not Duritz, since you have joined so late, you only have $1,887 to spend. The system I used is explained further back in the thread.

[Makybe Diva]

Here is my market for the race that stops the nation, the Melbourne Cup. Good luck everyone with your tips and I feel by the end of Tuesday, if the Diva wins, my profit could end up as a loss. Although, this could also happen for me for many other horses.

MAKYBE DIVA $3.50
RAILINGS $6.00
LEICA FALCON $7.00
EYE POPPER $8.00
DEMERGER $12.00
MR CELEBRITY $13.00

[Raw Instinct]

Well I need a bit of a miracle so this is how I will go

Railings $1500 @ $6

Distinction $1000 @ $35

[pumakid]

900 on railings, 987 on makybe

[bl4dez]

ALL ON VOUVRAY

[Duritz]

Sportz your market is almost exactly what the real market will be - might be hard to find value on that market.

MAKYBE no worries, if I only have $1887 to spend then that's all I have.

And spend it I will, thusly:

$1000 the win Mr. Celebrity.
$587 the win Distinction.
$300 the win Dizelle.

And if I lose, off with his head?

[Chrome Prince]

Wow you have Franklin Gardens as the rank outsider, would have thought many others have less chance than Franklin.

[Matilda]

RAILINGS $6.00 - 500

UMBULA $151.00 - 500

Here is my miracle

[Horse Whisperer]

hi makybe
i just wanna make sure i havnt got this wrong. as per your last page ive bet $5500, won $3300 and therefore lost $2200. so my balance should be $2800.
but my bets so far have been $500 first week for a $780 win.
$2500 second week for a $3300 win
and $2500 this week and $0 win so i thought i should be on $3580
thanks.....brett

[Makybe Diva]

Yes, I belive that may be correct Horse Whisperer. I think my major problem cam when I put you down for $3000 bet instead of $2500 and the problems compunded. I will try from now on to put people's balances. It takes a lot of time to collect bets and results and lately I have been very busy. Being able to edit on this forum would make it a hell of a lot easier for me.

As the spring carnival is now over, the next race which will have a market to bet on is the Bendigo Cup over 2400m next Wednesday.

I don't mean to impose, but it would be easier to read if it was in order. I did an excel spreadsheet for everyone

Nice one Chuck. What say we go all in shortly and bet to the death? ;)

Makybe - fun contest mate, thanks for running it. Only prob I see is that once you're out it's pretty boring. If you can think of a way that keeps everyone in the comp but penalises them for not betting a certain amount each week and add a severe penalty for going bankrupt, but allow them to buy back in, I reckon you're on a winner. Just my two bobs worth...

Thanks for the Excel file Chuck. Couldn't work out how to put one in. Kanga, I will yake your suggestion on hand and possibly use it in future competitions.

If people risk all their money on one race, then it's their own fault.
