Come on Sports What do ya say
Rabbitz, there are teams all over Australia begging me to not let you bet on them any more in this comp. :D
Okay, just for you and maybe Chuck soon:

If your balance goes below $10, you can bet the following amounts: $2.00 or $5.00

That means you can still have 2 or 3 more bets Rabbitz.

Yeah, I don't normally take any notice of the NT races, but they were doing a tote call just before the race and I heard them say that name. I had backed it a couple of times before and it wasn't hopeless, so I hurriedly threw a few dollars on. :)

Only jokin' Betsy!
And the proof of going well is really in the P.O.T. and I'm sure yours is up amongst them!

Well, it's only taken me 8 damn weeks, but I've learnt my lesson regarding what I should do in this comp. It just doesn't work trying to be greedy and putting extra teams in your multi bets. Much better to be more cautious like I am with real money. I'm way back on $314 now. I hope I can get a few wins on the board and gradually fight my way back. TheBookie is doing very well. He's out on $802 with still a few bets riding today so he can go higher.

Well you could cross out thebookie and put in Jack Daniels and have posted it last week.
But I'm glad I didn't notice thebookies bets or my comments would certainly have brought egg on my face!

Sportz 10th April 2005 08:50 AM

Mo, I've never been a fan of having more than about 2 or 3 games in my multi bets (usually I just have single bets), but when Jack Daniels started out so well with his 5 leg multis, I thought I might give it a try. No good. Just lucky that I've only been betting small amounts, because if I had been outlaying $50 on each bet like some have, I'd be back there with Rabbitz and Chuck. :D

This week for example, I originally had three multis picked out and two of them would have won:
S12: Highlanders, Chiefs, Stormers
S12: Highlanders +7.5, Chiefs+7.5, Stormers +7.5

AFL: Carlton, Essendon

But what did I do? At the very last minute, I decided to get greedy and I stuck two extra legs in those first two multis. DUMB!!! :(

TheBookie has not had one multibet that I can remember in this comp. He seems to go for single bets in the AFL that are $2.00 or longer. Admittedly he's been helped greatly by the Swans last second win as that's jumped $300 onto his tally. Whether he stays on top or not we'll have to wait and see. Might find things more difficult later on when the AFL gets further into the season. We could well have many different leaders over the duration of the comp. Personally, I'm just hoping I can somehow get back to $500. :o

Struggling to make the minimum 50 bet rule.
BET #10

A multi of Adeaide +18.5
into
Essendon straight out $1.30

$50 @ 2.27 returns $123.50

Opening Balance was $560.50
Closing Balance $510.60

I'm a bit like Floydyboy.Lost track of where I am.
So I will keep a note like Sportz said.Problem solved!
Is there anything that man doesn't know?
Apart from making a profit!!

Sportz 10th April 2005 09:00 AM

I think you're doing just fine. Wish I had had only 10 bets at this stage. Leaves you with 40 bets in about 24 weeks. Less than 2 a week.

By the way, I assume that bet is supposed to read $50 @ $2.47 ($123.50)
