You make a joke but the reallity is that due to the Sportsbook restrictions Pavy wasn't allowed to make investors the kind of return anticipated on the futures. Also due to requesting him to make selections on individual games early so we could get them and whatever made forecasting line-ups a hazard.
We were down over 3000 points at one point. Pavy made a great run and made these people their points back. Sure you can make a joke of how much was made but atleast they didn't lose.

Afrot, I have asked Pavy to pay off the % share investors. I paid all others. You will be repaid.

It's better than losing and nice to see these points back a month later with a little added.
SBR is afraid of soccer betting which is why they have such low limits compared to other sports. They only allowed 100 points for the teams to advance. If it was even at least 500 points it would have had a better return, but I'm happy. It was better than the colt fund or iffold's stocks.

Great job guys....Pavy and Wal put a lot of time and effort into this endeavor....it wasnt ever really about the points...it just adds a little more fun to the whole thing...again fellas, great job....
2010 FIFA WORLD CUP ODDS TO WIN GROUP B:
ARGENTINA -222 (500 100 points)
2010 FIFA WORLD CUP ODDS TO WIN GROUP E:
NETHERLANDS -155 (500 100 points)
2010 FIFA WORLD CUP ODDS TO WIN GROUP F:
PARAGUAY +365 (150 100 points)
2010 FIFA WORLD CUP ODDS TO WIN GROUP G:
BRAZIL -185 (500 100 points)
PROPOSITIONS:
WC 2010 TEAM TO ADVANCE GROUP A:MEXICO TO ADVANCE TO 2ND ROUND -125 (250 points)
WC 2010 TEAM TO ADVANCE GROUP B:SOUTH KOREA TO ADVANCE TO 2ND ROUND +215 (50 points)
WC 2010 TEAM TO ADVANCE GROUP C:SLOVENIA TO ADVANCE TO 2ND ROUND +165 (150 200 points)
WC 2010 TEAM TO ADVANCE GROUP D:SERBIA TO ADVANCE TO 2ND ROUND -115 (300 230 points)
WC 2010 TEAM TO ADVANCE GROUP F:PARAGUAY TO ADVANCE TO 2ND ROUND -200 (400 points)
WC 2010 TEAM TO ADVANCE GROUP G:PORTUGAL TO ADVANCE TO 2ND ROUND -155 (300 310 points)
WC 2010 TEAM TO ADVANCE GROUP H:CHILE TO ADVANCE TO 2ND ROUND -155 (300 310
points)
I originally wanted 50% of the points to be invested on futures. Due to future bets limited to 100 points we couldn't do that. Wish I knew this before.
We won the future to win cup with Spain at +410 but for 100 points risked instead of 250.
We won all group winners 4-0 but with only 100 points each instead of 500 on Argentina, Netherlands, Brazil.
We went 5-2 on the teams to advance losing one of the bets in injury time.
Since I had 82% of the fund not invested in futures instead of the 50% I had to increase the unit size on individual games and that got us into trouble since we had one really bad day. So instead of being up 30% after group stage we ended up being down 20%. But I didn't chase. I kept the unit size the same until we went back in the black.
Thanks everyone for playing!

Great tournament and great picks. Maybe I missed a pick or two that lost or my units were different but my personal bets (taken straight from pavyracer) made more than the points. I enjoyed it.

That wouldn't bother me except it cost me over a 100 points to ensure everyone got full profit return plus I donated 100 to Pavy since he had no points and was doing this to benefit the SBR family. Don;t worry though the points I do have will eventually find their way back to the SBR members.

We had a couple hick ups with bet placing either betting the wrong amount or not betting the winning bet but as long as we made money at the books this is all good. Also you got some different plays that weren't offered at the points book like the asian handicaps.
Stay tuned guys. A little birdie told me that there is going to be a new hedge fund opening up in August for the start of English Premier League. So if you want to make some serious points you need to enroll when it opens.

Wally thanks for the 100 points you placed for me. You didn't have to do it. I won't use these points so if you ever need them let me know. Are you going to do a hedge fund for college football?

Noway Pavs, those points were placed in the hedge fund for you because you were the one at risk. You deserved more points for all the work that was involved. Saying I don't care about the points is kind of like saying I just gave you something I don't care about. So I won't say I don't care about the points this time. If you don't want the points donate them to someone else or whatever but I don't want them.
As for college football. After seeing how cool under pressure you remained when it was such a rough start made me realize I don't have the stomach for it. If I didn't get off to a great start or if I hit a big rough spot I would cave holding everyones points in my control. You're a pro Pavs. I just don't have the grit to risk something that's not mine regardless of my past success.

All credit goes to Pavy. All I ever did was organize and Pm people. I didn't even do that very well. I cost us a couple 100 points early on and didn't even realize mslepp was one of the investors until I paid out returns yesterday so he never even got any of the PM's or updates.
