        Dax, you should change the odds on me, I am not getting bet on and I am not making it into the top ten lists by people here, better odds (e.g. +2000) might get people to bet on me....

        Cheers!

                            Wow at -1500 it appears that I am the overwhelming favorite in this thing. The rest of you don't stand a chance it seems.

                              i know it's supposed to be for fun. but if you bet on 3 guys at +800 or so each you are essentially getting less than 3 to 1 odds for taking way less than 1% of the field.

                              maybe if everyone was at least +5000?

                              casinos/lotteries are for fun too but at least they give you a fighting chance and don't have 90%+ juice...

                                  I've had a rough May but I finished 2nd today and I'm -1500. Must have to do with playing so much SNG when it was open.

                                        Try 900%+

                                        I'll be putting out my own odds soon, much will be much more reasonable and also offer more interesting bets like player vs. player.

                                          Thad, will you be putting me at -1500 as well?

                                            Im throwing a little on Thad would have done 4uk bud but your odds are ridiculous.

                                            Do we know who all has a seat for the final table thus far? Or is that the list or just who people have been betting on. I agree with the logic where there is no point in betting on yourself.

                                                  depends on how you calculate the juice thaddeus. i was saying more than 90% of the bet is kept by the house unlike lottery online games/raffles/etc where it's "only" 50%.
                                                  you're right though if you calculate from the baseline.

                                                  i like buying $20 scratch offs for fun, but they return about 85% so on average i'm only donating $3/ticket (15%) to the state which to me is a fair price for the fun they provide.

                                                      Don't bet on me, guys. Like I mentioned earlier in the thread, I don't think I can even play.

                                                      Fishhead is offering 100/1 on any poster, I hear.

                                                          Wow, can I bet against this?

                                                          Actually, it means a lot of respect. Higher odds means less respect.

                                                          you're right though if you calculate from the baseline.

                                                          It sounds like you and Thad calculated about the same thing, just you're saying it in different ways.

                                                            I don't anticipate anyone being better than +3000, most will be +5000 to +10000.

                                                              i like buying $20 scratch offs for fun, but they return about 85% so on average i'm only donating $3/ticket (15%) to the state which to me is a fair price for the fun they provide.
                                                              I see. In that case, you are probably fairly close, although I wouldn't be surprised if the real % is even higher than 90.
