Default went for little insurance

backed over 2.0/2.5 @ 1.87 (£24.00)

if only 2 goals are scored we get £12.00 back, if 3 or more we get returns of £44.88

GOOD LUCK US!!

Default another winning bet

game finished overs as many of us predicted with returns of £44.88 on the night

our kitty is now up to a decent £102.51

there is only one more game to go and obviously we wont be betting it all on the final so we can safly say.........


WE HAVE BEAT THE BOOKIES

by how much isnt resolved yet but we end euro 2008 in profit!!


now there is 3 ways we can from here and its up to us all to have our say,

we can either......

A.......bet £27.51 on the final and leave £75.00/$150 for a our poker stt (£75.00 is minimum as the bet might win and of course the fund would be higher)

B......bet £52.51 on the final and leave minimum £50.00/$100 for our poker stt

C.....have two £26.25 odds against bets on the final leaving minimum £50.00/$100 for our poker game, but with bets being odds against only need 1 winner from the 2 to get our money bk!!

these are 3 choices for how to use the kitty with one game remaining, the final isnt until sunday so we have 3 days to get our votes in for which we think is the best option and which is the best bet to take

option A is one smaller bet giving ourselves a minimum $150 poker game prizepool, but still have a decent size bet to make it a bigger prizepool

option B is a bigger bet leaving a smaller prizepool should it lose, but an even bigger one should it win

option C is pretty much the same as option B only here the stake is split into 2 bets giving ourselves a chance to get our money bk should one of the bets lose, hopefully both will win!!

MY VOTE

im going for option C, have 2 £26.25 odds against bets, we only need one to win to get our £50 quid bk and that would give us a prizepool of just over £100/$200, if both win we are looking at a prizepool of over £150/$300
should both bets lose (unlikely) then we still have a decent prizepool of £50/$100

like i said whichever option gets the most votes is the way we will go

once again congrats to all on beating the bookies

Default Well played .."man"

I think you've done a great job of this competition and well done for getting a profit throughout the tournament I think the final will be a good match and find it difficult to predict

My feeling is 1 1 ...it will be close
