    need to hit a parlay

    win a tournament (odds of 25/1 or so) AND have GUMMO finish 10th or worse (perhaps -150).

    Would pay +4233

    in other words, slim to no chance

    How does this pay 3 players with so few people in it?? I thought that it paid two players all the way

    Clearly if you read correctly 9+ Participants
    1st place: 48%
    2nd place: 28%
    3rd place: 18%

    we had 9 people participate.

    For the 50 point prize pool, 9 participants so 3 places paid. The 100 point bracket had fewer than 9, so only 2 places paid.

    All prizes paid out, congrats all! 180 point freeplay to ya Gummo, bet on whatever ya want and send back the 180 if ya win

    If you guys want to do another low-key one for June, let me know ASAP.

    First of all, yisman, you are much lower odds than 25 to 1 of winning everyday. The average tournament that you play in has around 30 players per day or lower. Of those 30, you are much better than at least 15 of them and the same caliber as at least 10 others. Therefore your odds would be around 15 to 1.




    tripledbets, I will run the contest for June if you dont want to. We can all just pay the flat 100 fee for one contest. I will make a thread later today. If we only get 5 people or so, then fine

    Nah, I'll do another one, I just won't be able to do daily updates or anything like that. Thread started, we'll see if anyone's interested!

    OK no big deal. I actually just hated to see you give up more free points in the freeplays. Hell I would play even without the added freeplays, but I understand that some guys just wont play in anything without something added to the pot. And of course those same guys would NEVER add anything to the pot themselves

    I don't think the core group we're down to is doing it for the free play, heh. Either way, freeplay's no big deal to me, gotta spend the points somehow

    Nope. I'd love to lay that bet. I don't win close to 1 out of 16 tournaments

    also, the tournaments I play in almost always have 30-35 players. The ones you play in may be another story.

    I didn't post the last standings, but it looks like everything is worked out.

    Yis and PRO made some crazy runs .. congrats.

    I don't understand the freeplay, Triple. You just want me to bet on a game and if I win send you the 180 back? Either way, it's very nice of you to send the extra pts

    Yeah grats again gummo stellar job bro.
    and I think as for the freeplay trip gave you the 180 to bet in the book and if it wins you send him back the 180, if it loses you dont have to send him back nothing. Basically hes giving you a 180 trivia freeplay co partaking with sbr lol.

    Hell just bet a straight bet at -110 or -105 or so. Then you still get 160 or so

    I doubt Triple will get anything, unless the betting gods grant me a wish.

    gummo I'll send you a parlay if you want

    bet something that pays 3/1, that way you can return 180 to triple if it hits and still have a nice amount
