The Virtual Bookmaker

by RocketAce Thu 03 Feb 2011, 10:56 pm

Welcome to the betting lounge

Anyone is welcome to join the game at any time by simply posting in this thread and saying they wish to open an account. They will then be credited with £1000 which can then be used to bet on any of the markets i have posted below at the given odds which will be updated in the main article.
If your balance runs down to zero, you recredited with £1000. (but this will be a loan from the virtual bank) If and when you have made enough money you can pay the bank back if you wish.

The minimum bet is £10.

Remember this is abit of fun. I cant be around all the time to update...and if this thread becomes popular then i will require help running it.

Additional Rules

1. single bets have to be posted by copying and pasting from the template post, then put stake amount in brackets

eg template post will say : 06/03/2011 13:30 Liverpool v Manchester United - Liverpool @2.80 Draw @3.25 Manu @2.50
so you copy and paste and make clear you bet like this: 06/03/2011 13:30 Liverpool v Manchester United - Manu win @2.50 (£100)

2. Accuminator bets are now allowed, however you will have to consult this site to work out your bets. http://www.betcalc.com/accacalc.php

once you have worked out your bets they need to be posted like this: eg. 4-fold arsenal x manu x newcastle x spurs @xyz (£100)
