Golden Boot Question

[TennisBabe]

If neither Villa or Sneijder score today there will be a four way tie for first. I assume prices are split in the eyes of the books?

[gabrymoschi]

Perhaps all winners....
Ideally the right thing but I don't think will be so....

[COOGI]

i dont thinkso ....they have to paid u full price...

[TennisBabe]

My book has Mueller at +600 and Forlan at +700. Unless I'm missing something I can't see why they would do. My understanding is a tie would mean a split (divide payout by 4?) If that's the case I think it's worth to put some on Forlan at +700 and hope Villa/Sneijder don't score today :-)

[COOGI]

because the book believe villa or sneijder will score to day so they offer to u i guess

Don't assists become the tie breaker?

[noober]

that's what i heard:

there can only be one golden boot winner and in a case of a tie assistances are considered
there can be more than one top scorers

I heard it on the forum so not sure how accurate is that

Golden boot does indeed go to a tie-breaker, only one winner. Top scorer is different it can be split four ways equally if they is a tie four ways. The 3/4 deduction would come from your winnings.

This is how a book here explained this to me on live chat earlier.

So I email my book to get clarification, and once they reply back I go back to check the odds and they have taken them down

Forlan won the golden boot I saw on the ESPN bottom line. Wonder if the +700 was paid outright or a split.

Mueller won golden boot , Forlan won golden ball

Ah feel a bit better now. Makes sense since he played 1 less game.
