    Section Purpose and Rules

    The idea of this section is simple.
    You start ONE thread with 1000 points/pounds. Before a race starts you put up your selections and update you bank balance after the sporting event has completed. When the 1000 points/pounds. has been used up. you may start another thread and try again.

    For fun I propose that the people/persons that reach 5000 points/pounds get added to a role of honour which will consist of final amount and number of bets it took.

    I am of the opinion that where SP is available bets should be settled to SP. That includes lays also.

    Prices:
    If you back or lay the bet yourself with any real money, it is settled at the price you take.
    If you lay horse and do not put money on it, it is at the price you see on Betfair at the time you check pre-race.
    Otherwise all bets are settled at SP.
    If prices are taken, they must be specified before the off, otherwise settle at SP.
    All EW bets are calculated as 1/4 the odds regardless of runners, handicap or not.

    Doesn't have to be spot on, but everyone is watching and a Betfair odds of 110/1 for a 5/4 SP winner @ 1/2 the odds EW will be noticed

    for the dingles vs sunderland game tonight. i swear i got the 90's on sunderland. honnest :D

    joking aside (should probably be in rant section), some has been self trading at 90's on all outcomes on footy games for the past few weeks, making the betfair graph useless.

    It's hard to have a battle of wits when your opponent is unarmed.

    They are realistic to me and other forum users. Now saying lay to £500 is too much.

    Im new on this forum and much interested in this idea. Can you tell me what's a role of honour plz? Can I have 2 thread for back and lay at the same time? If both 2 reach 5000 pts, should I have double the role of honour?????? . Start posting 2morrow anyway. Cheers

    the roll of honour is just your name on the post below this one.

    talking of that.

    WHERE'S MY NAME ON THAT LIST

    i am sure i made the £5k+, in fact i deffinetely made the list. it was the day england beat N ireland 3-0 but i miscalculated the stake and needed £2 to qualify. (which i got by the way)

    I DEMAND TO BE PUT ON THE LIST :D

    remember - it's just a bit of fun :)

    Welcome handicapper, your avatar clashes with someone else's on here, which is very confusing....especially for Vegy who reads by pictures only :)

    Nope. I proved this was too easy with my sartorial lays so there was no booze prize.

    This thread was simply aimed to get people paper-trading new ideas and thinking more about staking
