    World Cup Leaderboard Bets

    Anyone interested in doing World Cup leaderboard bets?

    Bet Types:

    More points at end of contest: 500 point max bet
    Most cahses at end of contest: 250 point max bet

    500 max per person.

    Will accept bets through end of Sunday, regardless of current standings. No point/cash deduction on either side based on when the bets are taken.

    Just post the amount you're interested in and I will quote it and confirm it.

    Others feel free to make bets with someone else in this thread, to help tracking easier for everyone.

    I'd be very interested in a most cashes challenge, or possibly most minutes played in the series. You know, real poker metrics and not some silly most points nonsense.

    Most cashes is a worse metric than points. Valuing a 12th place finish the same as a 1st is dumb. Though, bobbywaves will probably take you up on that bet if you post up.

    No way to measure anything besides points and cashes, so points it is.

    But, if others want to do most cashes bets, I'll do those up to 250.. F it, why not.

    If SBR tracked this stat automatically like total pts & cashes, I'd be interested.

    I'll bet another 250 on total pts, since at worst I'll split my 2 bets.

    Finished at 4040, 15 behind waves so those are sent

    Mirra was at 1880 on 4/8 so it's reasonable to assume he was below 4040.. So he owes me 250
