What a wonderful start from me.


[even more wonderful for me!]

It would have been easy to say nothing [ except thanks for the mistake:-)) ], but I think you might have gone a bit astray in your scoring Sportz.
You might want to check everything from yesterday, as you may have been a bit tired or something. Both mine and Syllabus23 scores both seem a bit on the high side! I haven't checked any of the others but you might want to if these 2 are wrong:

UniTab prices:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Crash
Doomben
6/1 Blood 'n' Bone 60w x 6w = 360
7/7 Single Rose 60w [2nd] nil
8/5 Consider Yourself 80w x 4.20w = 336
Total win $696 / Amount spent = ($200)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syllabus23
Perth Race2 #1 Universal Prince $100 Win [scr.]
Melbourne Race8 #4 Spielmaster $100 Win x 3.60 = 360w

My Belmont horse scratched so .........
Trifecta Doomben R8 5,6,9/1,2,5,6,9,10/1,2,5,6,9,10 $1 = $60 x 1=213.70w
Total win = $573.70 Amount spent = ($160)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Also:

The rules say max. spent on exotics is $50. Syllabus23's TRI cost $60 for a $1 unit, meaning it should be read as a 50c unit ($30 cost], which would win him $106.80 [rounded down from 106.85], not 213.70. His totals would be: Total win = $466.80 Spent $130.


Sportz,
Maybe you are adding the money we have left to bet with for the month to what we win? If so, my score would be correct but Syllabus would still be out I think.

I thought we just had $500 for the month to bet with. There was nothing in the rules about having our winnings to bet with on top of our monthly bet amount [?]

Crash:
Amount Spent $200
Amount Won $696
Profit: $496

$500 + $496 = $996

where is the problem???

Ahhh yeah, what Chuck said. You start with a bank of $500 and then you try to build on that. In your case Crash, you started with $500, then spent $200 and won $696. ($500 - $200 + $696 = $996) Can't see the problem.

And if you read back over the previous posts, you'll see that I told Syllabus23 about the maximum bet for trifectas and I DID change it to a 50c bet. And Rabbitz, you had a couple of scratchings in your Adelaide trouble, so you were refunded $24.

Guys, I've done this sort of thing a bit now, so I sort of know what I'm doing. But I'm certainly not immune to making mistakes, so if you do have any doubts about the scoring, feel free to raise them.

I see your point Chuck and nothing wrong with it if we want to go by 'assumed' rules, rather that what the rules say.

The rules state we get $500 to bet with a month and that's all they say. The rules didn't mention anything about the scoring method except Unitab would be used. Does this mean that next week I have $996 to bet from, $796 or $300?


That's why my posts, these points need to be clarified and I don't want to be accepting a score I didn't deserve if it was a mistake.

We posted at the same time Sportz.

Thanks for the clarification. So next week do I have $996 to bet from, $796 or $300?
