sparkus8 22nd November 2004 09:22 PM

Hey Knowledge, the rules you have in the other thread dont say anything about a minimum bet. I know it was discussed, but you must have forgot to put it in there when you put the rules up.

Chuck 24th November 2004 06:51 PM

Knowledge, i am changing my latest bet from J.Johanson to Win, to a different bet. Just letting you know so i don't fall under the 10 min edit thingy

Have you gone nuts Chuck??? I've just seen that Mult-bet you've put on there!!! :eek:

Chuck 24th November 2004 07:41 PM

yeah well...still got $40 worth of other previous cricket bets on, so this is more of a lotto ticket for 50k, but with alright chances!!!

knowledge 24th November 2004 07:42 PM

all right chuck mate :grin:

good luck with the multi :smile:

Must be pretty damn confident Justin Langer's going to have a good one!!!

Chuck 24th November 2004 08:13 PM

thats right...i've got a lot riding on his performance...just keep remembering him firing against the kiwis in 2001...turn him from an in-out player to a permanent player for years to come...i base many of my cricket bets on previous results, found at: http://stats.rleague.com/tc/lists/results.html - which has the results of every test ever played
e.g - http://stats.rleague.com/tc/scorecards/1573.html shows the results of the last AUSvNZ match at the WACA, and these results often lead to repeat performances!

knowledge 24th November 2004 08:29 PM

god damn it
less than 30 seconds left and my under 200.5 points bet loses. steven black also performed sh-t so I only have $5 now :mad:

sportznut 24th November 2004 08:40 PM

What's the score. i can't seem to get up to date scores on tonight's NBL.

Chuck 25th November 2004 05:29 AM

You've got your whole commp riding chelsea now Knowl!!

sportznut 25th November 2004 11:37 AM

So much for that huh, Knowledge? Bad luck.

Anyway, if you're wondering why I didn't join the comp, it's because I don't really think it suits my style of betting. I'm sure it will be won by somebody having BIG bets or landing some extravagant multi and that's just not my style. I prefer a slow, steady, cautious style of punting. If I had been in the comp, I would have had the following bets: $5 @ $1.85 Scotland(+21.5) vs Aus R.U, $5 @ $1.85 Wales(+15.5) vs NZ R.U, $5 @ $1.65 England vs S.Af R.U and $15 @ $1.22 Federer vs Hewitt. 4 bets for 4 winners but I would still be a fair way behind the leader. So that's why I wasn't really worried about joining the comp.

thefan 25th November 2004 10:42 PM

can anybody let me borrow money plz. im broke.

im the first to be eliminated. I hate NBL so much now.

My tips for fun so if ya got the cash trust me on this one

RL
GB/GB $4 x $10 = $40
most tries Carney v (Rooney) $3 X $10 = $30
Aus try $2.15 x $10 = $21.50
Cost $30 payout $91.50

I just need $30,ill pay ya back. Can I get a loan anybody

sportznut 25th November 2004 10:48 PM

Them's the rules. I guess you should have been more careful with the $50.

Jack Daniels 26th November 2004 04:11 PM

Come on the fan you should know better than to borrow money to bet with. Thats a big no no. Bet with your head not over it.



Besides, the Aussies will beat the Poms in the final of the Tri Nations Competition. :razz:


sportznut 26th November 2004 04:37 PM

Well Chuck, looks like you could be spot on with Justin Langer!

Spirited 26th November 2004 05:14 PM

Looks OK to me:

Sienna 2.70
Draw 3.05
Roma 2.45

Soccer Extra also has Correct Score and Total Goals.

Looks fine to me still open too.

Well ROMA sure did find some form ! They thumped Siena 4-0 , pitty i forgot put ROMA on for the $50 challenge!

DR RON 1st December 2004 02:26 PM

To sportznut
 
I was betting the whole $50. Easy to say that after the event I know, Ill let you guys decide whether I'm being honest or not. Whatever decision you make is fine by me. If I'm still in then

Balance 1.85x $50=$92.50

DR RON 1st December 2004 02:32 PM

Challenger tennis Round 1

Sargis Sargasian v Peter Wessels

Sargasian at $1.65 to win

$25

Closing balance $92.50-$25= $67.50

sportznut 1st December 2004 02:40 PM

DR RON,

Because you didn't say anything at all about how much you were betting, I had pretty much assumed you were betting the whole lot.

DR RON 1st December 2004 03:42 PM

A gentleman through and through sportz. A pity bets like that dont come up every week. The Aussies were just going through the motions in the prelims.

sportznut 1st December 2004 03:59 PM

Not really up to me though Ron. I'm not even in the comp. I think the others will probably understand though.

sportznut 1st December 2004 06:16 PM

RON,

I think you have to put your bets on the other thread.

Jack Daniels 1st December 2004 08:59 PM

I put a bet in the $50 bet thread yesterday, but it seems to have disappeared????

It was only a little one of $15 on Chelsea at $1.52 and it won. But seeing as how I can't find it in the thread, I'll just have to go something else.

Never mind that.

It was about time one of my multi's came in. (in reference to the $50 bet thread). The good thing about the following multi is that along with those three bets I added 4 tennis bets to my multi to beef it up a bit in reality!!!!

This is what I ended up with:

(B. PHAU $1.70) Vs I. Kunitsyn
x
(H.T. LEE $1.35) Vs G. Elseneer
x
(A. SEPPI $1.42) Vs S. Pescosolido
x
I. Heuberger Vs (M. TABARA $1.57)
x
(MAN U $1.95) Vs Arsenal
x
Tottenham Vs Liverpool (Draw $3.30)
x
(ATHLETIC BILBOA $1.40) Vs Steaua Bucharest

= $46.09 x $20.00 = $921.80

I Just wish I had put a hundred on it. Doh.

Always the way though. You get a good one up and say, why didn't I put the house on it. Because hindsight is a lovely thing.

:D

Chuck 2nd December 2004 02:00 PM

Damn!

Only a big innings from Fleming or Astle and one wicket from Gillespie halted my march to 50 grand!

sportznut 3rd December 2004 06:24 AM

Bad luck Chuck.

Could have just had the three options involving Justin Langer and Australia to win. That would have paid $297!!! :)

knowledge 3rd December 2004 05:24 PM

everyone seems to be going bust... Mr ed is doing very well though.

Floydyboy where are you?

Chuck 5th December 2004 11:11 AM

Knowledge
Do you have any idea who's leading
Who's gone etc
Cheers

knowledge 10th December 2004 01:11 AM

sorry Rabbitz I haven't done any of that yet.. been busy. Maybe later.

Floydyboy hasn't been here for a good 3 weeks and unfortunately I have to eliminate him unless he comes on and explains his absence. Maybe internet problems or something.

Chuck 20th December 2004 02:45 PM

Ohhhh.....

Clippers + Grizzlies are tying with 4 min to go in the last leg of my latest multi!
