Total $1000.

Yes, your balance was $6,500 which means with the bet, it is down to $2500

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

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 :(

Well, Kanga and Dale had handy wins with Benico but the rest of you missed out. The results will be coming soon.

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.

:eek:

Makybe Diva,

In all fairness I think I should tell you that you haven't actually counted my $800 loss today.

Thanks for that Sportz. I will change it now.

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.

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.

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

Waiting for the final weather prediction.

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?

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.

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
VINNIE ROE $13.00
LACHLAN RIVER $21.00
XCELLENT $21.00
STRASBOURG $26.00
DISTINCTION $35.00
PORTLAND SINGA $35.00
DIZELLE $41.00
HUGS DANCER $41.00
ON A JEUNE $51.00
GREYS INN $71.00
VOUVRAY $81.00
BAZELLE $101.00
RIZON $101.00
KINDJHAL $151.00
UMBULA $151.00
KAMSKY $151.00
ENVOY $301.00
FRANKLINS $501.00
GARDENS

$9800 on the Diva

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

Railings $1500 @ $6

Distinction $1000 @ $35

900 on railings, 987 on makybe

ALL ON VOUVRAY

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?

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

RAILINGS $6.00 - 500

UMBULA $151.00 - 500

Here is my miracle

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

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.

Huh? It's not my market.

This is one competition I'm NOT running. :D

Purely a tactical decision to leave out Makybe Diva and Vinnie Roe. I would just LOVE to see her win, and I wouldn't complain if Vinnie Roe got up either. :)

Sorry Sportz but your bets were too late and I am going to lose a hell of a lot with the champion mare making it three in a row.

Oh okay. Sorry.
