Sounds good to me I'm with both Skybet and Bet365. The latter usually offer best prices if that makes a difference.

I was thinking them just because they offer the widest range as a rule, perhaps if all 3 are offering odds Bet 365 count but because Sky Bet are better at lower non league and certain other sports such as speedway as long as one of SJ, SkyBet and Bet365 are offering odds you can choose a selection and the Bet 365 price is the 1st choice, SkyBet 2nd and SJ 3rd in choosing which odds to use to calculate winnings.

Ok heres my idea and put in ideas to tweak it as you like

1 bet per day (horse or sport.....the event has to finish on the day its tipped but can be overnight so can include US sports or obscure foreign leagues). Singles only.

£10 mythical on each bet.

Horse racing odds worked out at SP.

Sports bet odds worked out at the time of posting by one bookie's odds regardless of best odds on offer (you need to quote the handicap and odds and I am sure someone else will check so cheats will be sussed lol) .....I'd say pick one from Skybet, Bet 365 or Stan James but thats an idea that probably needs debating.

Sounds pretty good to me. Doesn't really bother me which bookie we use.

Edit: I'll do it cos i'm online most days

Fairs enough


As long as people are being genuine I doubt it matters much with things like Oddschecker there to confirm their claimed 3/1 shot in the Mexican Premier League is not actually 11/8 lol

Right.

You're each given £10 to bet per day. One bet only. Single win only. No Each way bets as it'll complicate things.

I think racing odds should be taken at Last show prices.

Other sport odds should be declared at time of post.

Checks will be made on those odds declared.

At the end of the week the weekly win fun will be calculated, then monthly ones will be done (if proven successful and we do continue that far)

Anything else?

no accys trebles etc either, What about you cant place a odds on money as you could pick a 1/10 shot everyday and be £70 plus a few pence at the end of the week?
Or instead of money have were if your bet comes up you get 10 points then bonus points for better prices i.e evens - 2/1 10point 3/1 - 6/1 20 points and 7/1 over 30 points?

If you want me to keep score aswell i can as i am on everyday with my job title

If people want to place a tenner at odds of 1/10 let them.
Let's keep it simple and have a stright tenner each day, end off.
One more thing. What is the deadline for submitting bets?
Start tomorrow?
