This Weeks Gambling Thread (9/9-9/15/03)
There is a short write up on our weekly winner (Old Codger) and our worst performances by hawaiianboy and Coogs on the homepage. Read about them at Winners and Losers
1. Go to Leader Board to insure your name is on the list of competitors this season. Also check your totals. Gambling with more than your total amount will disqualify you from the week. 2. If your name appears then you can go to 9/14/03 Odds to get the info to place your bets. Refresh the page BEFORE you decide on your bets. 3. Come back here and place your bets. Remember to follow the rules listed on Gambling Home Page Rules I will take your bets from this page and place them on the web page listed in #2 above. I STRONGLY advice that you refresh the pages before referring to them, especially if you have cookies activated. Also note this very important fact: You are responsible for insuring your bets are placed accurately. Check it to insure your bets are correct. Remember - only you can prevent bad bet placement IMPORTANT RULE - DO NOT EDIT YOUR BETS AFTER YOU HAVE PLACED THEM. INSTEAD START A NEW REPLY WITH THE WORDS "CHANGE BET(S)" AT THE BEGINNING OF THE POST This will help me in keeping up with bet placement and changes without becoming an accountant and referee. |

You started with 10,000 You won 1,000 on the DEN game, you collect 90% and 10% goes to the house; ergo 900 You lost 500 on the KC over/under game You lost 1000 on the STL game You won 1,000 on the ATL game, you collect 90% and 10% goes to the house; ergo 900 10,000 + 900 - 500 - 1,000 + 900 10,300 Please respond and let me know you understand the math involved. If you disagree, then we can get Big Daddy to intervene.

Hey Russ,
You missed one of my bets: http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=67975 I had 1000 on Bucs/Eagles under 36. There should be a way you can check as a moderator that I didn't edit the post.

Tough one to call...
Chiefs –3 $5000 Because anyone betting against his team is a buttwipe. Chiefs/Steelers UNDER 48 $5000 Because SOMEBODY on one of these teams is going to play some D. xoxo~ Gaz Likes betting with play money. |

TJ - We both know better than that, but thanks for the compliment anyway. Gaz - The play IRS wants to have a play conversation with you regarding your play winnings.

Also, I don't understand how I can win 4 of 5 $1000 bets and walk away with only $1700.
I'm new to this, so can you let me know what I'm not picking up on here? Thanks! On edit: I figured it out... I just need to get the TB/Philly situation worked out... 10000 -1000 +900 +900 +900 _______ 11,700 +TB/PHilly Money + 900 =$12,600 I'll let you rule on arbitration, because it's probably my responsibility to make certain my bets make the board... But I know I called it...
