2014 Spring Tipping Comp
 

NATIONAL PUNTING LEAGUE (Spring 2014)

Here's how the comp works. We will all be tipping against each other for 12 weeks from this Saturday, August 9, through to October 25. Then at the completion of those 12 weeks, the top 8 tipsters will go head to head in a final series over the week of the Melbourne Cup carnival, culminating in the Grand Final on Saturday, November 8.



RULES

1. Of the 12 Saturdays during the preliminary rounds, you must tip on at least 9 of them.

You are allowed to miss 3 weeks. No more. People will have to start tipping by August 30 or they miss out.

2. You can post anywhere between 5 and 15 selections each week.

3. You can bet anywhere between $50 and $150 each week.

The leading tipsters are judged on % profit, not the total amount of profit. So betting more won't give you a better chance.

4. You can bet either win only or win & place and you can bet any multiples of $5 win or place, up to a total of $30.

This might sound confusing, but it's not really. Firstly, win only betting will be the same as usual... $5, $10, $15, $20, $25 or $30 for the win. It's win & place betting where there's been a change. From now on, you don't have to have the standard "each way" bet as we've done in previous years. For example, say you want to bet $30. Instead of having to bet $15 each way, you can now have $10 win / $20 place or even $5 win / $25 place. The only thing you can't do is bet place only. So as long as you have at least $5 win on a horse and the total bet doesn't exceed $30, then you're okay.

5 . Races you can tip in:
You can tip at any Australian or New Zealand meeting covered by Tattsbet on Saturdays. Which is just about everything.



Calculating your $ return:
I will be using "Sportingbet Best Tote +5%" to calculate the return on all races if available. If not available, I will be using Tattsbet dividends.

I'm going to just sit back and watch today. Still refining the system that I'll be using and I don't want to start before I'm confident with it. Will probably start tipping next week.
