The Sports Betting thread

[Baddar]

Hmm... although I appreciate Badder allowing me the points, I am a stickler for the rules and the bet did quite clearly say any of Saturdays games, in capitals no less. Obviously it was accidental and I wasn't aware that Man United were playing on Sunday this week. So how about I forfeit the 16 points that I won and instead am just reimbursed the 4 points that was my bet?

Although you all do realise this means Slogger goes top right?

I've done exactly that, cheers. You've gone from 537 to 521 (-16) then I've added the 4 for that bet, so now you're on 525. Here's how it looks after I made the alteration...

1st. Slogger - 531

2nd. Ellis - 529

3rd. Scott McFly - 525

4th. Pesci - 522

EDIT: Actually, we'll resume the EWB Bookie at the weekend. The odds for the CL games this week are absolutely shit aside from the Liverpool-Arsenal game, due to the fact that Barca, Chelsea and Utd are all at home. This would undoubtedly mean lots of "20 on Barca/Chelsea/Utd" bets.
