    World Cup Finals ODDS
    First off, I still owe around 1000 500 points for the previous round of bookmaking (and I have made arrangements with a teammate to help me avoid any payout hiccups in the future).

    So don't be surprised if this time lines will be a little harder to beat. If you don't like the vigorish I charge - beat it! I could promise to 'buy points if I lose' but I won't. I'm asking that you wait if you win more than I can pay off quickly, and will have no problem waiting until you pay up, should you lose. Forget that, everyone needs to post up or be limited immediately (to half the maximum stake).

    I didn't do a good enough job of managing my risks in the regular season betting threads (bravo, yisman!) but I expect a better performance this time - both at poker and taking your bet points, my dear customers.

    #1 TEAM TO WIN THE WORLD CUP-2016

    -333 TEAM USA (others on request)
    +210 FIELD


    #2 TEAM TO PLACE HIGHER IN THE FINALS

    +110 TEAM WORLD
    - 150 TEAM CANADA


    #3 TEAM TO PLACE HIGHER IN THE FINALS

    -700 TEAM USA
    +420 TEAM CONFEDERATES


    #4 TEAM TO PLACE LAST IN THE FINALS

    +130 TEAM WORLD
    +190 TEAM CONFEDERATES
    +230 TEAM CANADA
    +1500 TEAM USA

    Additionally, if you want to bet on yourself to win OVER a certain number of points (2 for first, 1 for second in each individual Finals match), make me an offer and I'll try to accommodate.

    - Max bet 50 bet points (risk/to win)

    - No post up necessary, but you will be paid sooner if you do.

    - READ POST #6 RE: POSTING UP. IT'S JUST 5 DAYS SO PLEASE PUT THE FUKKIN CASH DOWN

    - I AM PUTTING EVERY POINT I MAKE in World Cup prizes (from 750 to 10000) into paying everyone off, A.S.A.P. Unless my team wins the Cup, I'll get poker points. In this case I will roll everything over before May 5th and then distribute the resulting bet points to winners.

    - Also, every point I generate going forward will be spent the same way. I will first pay off winners who post up on these Finals bets, then winners of my 'regular season' threads who didn't post up, then winners of this thread who don't post up. Rest assured that everyone will get paid in due time.

    - Lastly, I am looking for a backer to borrow 1000 points from, to pay off the four players I still owe for the previous bets (multiple threads, betting on 'regular season' World Cup standings). You will get back 1100 plus 10% profit I make on this round of WC Finals bookmaking. If I happen to lose money again, you only get 1100 back (no liability for my loss, just a free roll on the win)

          As you can see I'm pretty high on Canada and USA. The reason I am THIS low on my own team is I'd like to semi-hedge. So I'll gladly take action on any other team to place last at inflated odds. Hurry up before bobbywaves sees this +330 on Canada!

            And a quick rule update, following advice of a teammate and a savvy gambler. I will only allow HALF the maximum for any bet that is not prepaid, effective immediately. This only applies to bets accepted in 'away' mode, like the first three bets from two players above.

            Unless you are owed for 'regular season' bets (i.e. your name is astros61200, Dipper30, slikec, spider or yisman), I will only accept half the maximum bet from you in 'away mode' (automatically) UNLESS you post up 100% of what you risk.

            And again, if you beat my soft lines during the regular season and never posted up, you'll be the last in line to be paid. Yes, I'm not an A+ book. Yet.

                You can have 20 points without posting up. The maximum is 50, more than twice your bet.

                Feel free to post up though!

                        It's +190 and +370 on the first two.

                        Can give you +1700 on the last one though. You still want to play?

                            Odds change after each bet, pretty much, as long as I'm here and monitor things. A minute before you bet, I was just posting an update which included a +190 to +180 move following that last 20 point bet, and prop bet #5 (lol what a coincidence that YOU wanted to bet at this very moment!)

                            ....but +210 and +420 were gone a long time ago (see posts #2 and #3). Tighter line management this time. I understand if you want to pass. The best I can do is +190, +370, +1700

                                  No bet but you may change you mind if you review the time stamps. This is clearly a misunderstanding since mrleisure (and I would assume almost everyone else) understands what I mean by 'an update'.


                                  05:19pm - aggieshawn bets the +420 line
                                  05:21pm - slikec bets the +210 line
                                  06:43pm - I post an update moving both lines to +370 and +190 respectively (notice post #6 is unedited)
                                  07:04pm - mr. leisure bets the +190 line (notice how +210 isn't even mentioned, as it shouldn't because it's been bet down already)
                                  07:46pm - your bet

                                                              sorry about this misunderstanding, grivas

                                                              I copy/pasted from post#1 and did not even look down in the thread to see that you had adjusted the odds

                                                              I was in the wrong, my apologies bud
