Ada's Horse Racing Bingo Game - In Play

[Iron Chris]

Shouldn't I have crossed off number three today Ada...

EDIT : That will teach me for looking in here first!!

[Iron Chris]

If your selection wins according to the bet you place, this number will be crossed off your Bingo Ticket.

Although, maybe not...

[TheGoodGuy]

OK Chris.....fair comment.

That's what I said in the rules, so I shall stick to my word, I'll cross number 3 off your card.

I'm going to go & edit that comment now though to make it clear.....:D

Ada.

[Iron Chris]

Thanks Ada, would have gone with whatever you decided but just happened to see that after I had posted...

[TheGoodGuy]

Sadly we have to bid farewell to Sparkyminer who has unfortunately lost his 30pt bank.

Many thanks for playing Sparky. Better luck in the next game.

[sparkyminer]

I'm still in the lead on the bingo card.:)

Ada's birthday bonus points giveaway....

As it's my birthday today, & I'm in an unusually good mood, I have credited everybody's (including you Sparky) Bank with an extra 5pts.....so use them wisely!!

Your profit/loss is now calculated on a starting Bank of 35 points.

Good luck.

Ada.

[mathare]

Thanks Ada - and happy birthday. You're doing a great job for me there

[sparkyminer]

Be afraid everyone, be afraid.:D

[scaaty]

Thanks Ada - all I need now is a new pin ! :)

[buddhabee]

Thanks for the bonus, Ada.

[TheGoodGuy]

Today we have to bid farewell to Fadetoblack who has unfortunately used up his 35pt bank.

Many thanks for playing Fade. Hope you'll join in the next game.

[Fadetoblack]

I'm useless at the races where I have no opinion....IU just guess....and as we can see...I'm a useless guesser. You don't have another birthday or anniversary coming up this week Ada no? :D

thanks for the game

[TheGoodGuy]

FAO Bigmazey.....

Unfortunately, you're dangerously close to leaving the game if you don't pick a winner next time....so regard your bank balance & stake/bet as 1pt, not the 0.17pts you actually have left.
Your returns (hopefully loads) will be based on a 1pt stake/bet.

Good luck

[TheGoodGuy]

Another one bites the dust.......today we have to bid farewell to Bigmazey who has unfortunately used up his 35pt bank.

Many thanks for playing Bigmazey.

[sparkyminer]

I've got a line up Ada. Or are we playing to a full house?:)

[sparkyminer]

I've just re-read the rules.
I'll get mi coat.:D

[TheGoodGuy]

Just to make sure everyone is aware.....

Spot prizes will be awarded as the bingo game progresses to the first person(s).........
Crossing off all 4 corners
Crossing off a middle line.

By 'spot prizes' I mean you will be offered double odds for crossing off 4 corners & 2 selections for the price of 1 bet for crossing off a middle line in a future race of your choice.

[bigmazey]

Thanks for setting it up Ada. I did enjoy it but i need to brush up on my studying techniques. Maybe I'll just copy Mathare's selections next time.

Good Luck to everyone who is still in especially those just hanging in there by the skin of their teeth.

At least i wasn't first out:D.

[sparkyminer]

No. I was but, hey ho.

[mathare]

Maybe I'll just copy Mathare's selections next time.

I do no form study and pick horses based on criteria including their name! I'm just lucky I guess...

[TheGoodGuy]

FAO Vegyjones & Piggy.....

Vegy, you're dangerously close to leaving the game (again) if you don't pick a winner next time....so regard your bank balance & stake/bet as 1pt, not the 0.89pts you actually have left.
Your returns (hopefully loads) will be based on a 1pt stake/bet.

Piggy, likewise, you're in a precarious position.....
If you choose an EW bet next time, your returns will be based on a 1pt EW stake, ie rounding up your actual 1.38pts to 2pts for the purpose of this type of bet.
Otherwise, you are restricted to a 1pt WIN or PLACE.

Good luck to you both

[TheGoodGuy]

Two more out.......today we have to bid farewell to Vegyjones & Piggy who have both unfortunately used up their 35pt banks.

Many thanks for playing guys.

[sparkyminer]

Cheerio, cheerio, cheerio.
Cheerio, cheerio, cheerioooooo.
Cheerio, cheerio, cheerio.
Cheerio, cheer-io.
You know the tune.:D

[bigmazey]

Join the exclusive club. better selections when real money is down

[TheGoodGuy]

Five down......five to go.......today we have to bid farewell to Buddhabee who has unfortunately used up his 35pt bank.

Many thanks for playing Buddhabee.

[buddhabee]

Ah well. I missed today's as I forgot last night and didn't get back from work at lunchtime in time to post. I woudn't have chosen any of the placers anyway.

It was good while it lasted. Thanks Ada.

[TheGoodGuy]

OK guys & gals....listen up.

RULE CHANGE

If nobody has completed a full house on one of their bingo cards after the selected race on FRIDAY 14th DECEMBER, the game will end & the following rules will apply to determine who goes on to play the Deal/No Deal game to win somewhere between £0 & £100........

i) the player with the highest points total **
ii) the player with the most wins (most bingo numbers crossed off all 3 cards)**
AND.....as it's coming up to Christmas.....
ANY other player who has a HIGHER points total than player (ii) above.....

.....will each be given 10pts to stake however they wish on races on SATURDAY 15th DECEMBER.
You must stake ALL of the 10pts by (for example):
1 x 10pt WIN or PLACE bet on any horse in any race.
5 x 1pt WIN & 5 x 1pt PLACE bets on any 10 horses in any 10 races
5 x 1pt EW bets on any 5 horses in any 5 races
etc
etc.....get the idea?

ie.. ANY combination of bets you choose totalling 10pts. (Only 1 horse per race may be selected.....no dutching allowed).

The person who ends up with the HIGHEST points total after racing will go on to play the Deal/No Deal game to hopefully pocket some Christmas cash (or Amazon vouchers).

Good Luck

** The player with the highest points total MAY end up being the same person with the most bingo numbers crossed off. If this is the case then this player alone will play the Deal/No Deal game & the knockout phase will not be necessary.

[mathare]

Better getting it settled by Christmas else we'll still be going by Easter at this rate

[mathare]

If I get the next bingo number I get my middle row spot prize :D
