Ozgolf punters club - stage 4, round 2

[backintheswing]

It's time to kick off Stage 4 of the Punters club. We have $2565 in the kitty, divided among 19, $135 each.

New punters can join for a $135 entry.

Will leave it open until Wednesday 6/8/2014 6pm for new punters. After that I will do a random draw and we will be away again.


Rules:

1. A once off payment of $135 secures you a share in the club.

2. A roster will be drawn up and posted so everyone knows in what order they will be betting.

3. We will be using a Tom Waterhouse sporting bet account and everyone will have access to the login to see bets made, balance etc.

4. If you double the money that you have bet, then you can punt again the next week. i.e for a $135 outlay, minimum of $270 collect required to bet again.

5. Winnings to be distributed when everyone has punted, or we can decide to go again.

6. It is anticipated that bets will be a minimum of $40 and payouts for each bet should be at least $135. This will not however be strictly enforced, as to entice some of our exotic multi-bet punters in the ranks. (e.g having a $10 place bet on a horse @ 2.80, to win $28 is not encouraged.)

[PeteyD]

What does that mean?

[backintheswing]

2 new punters this week, AndyP and Waddzy. We need a collect boys. I will pm account details.

[Daves]

[QUOTE=PeteyD;1157781]What does that mean?[/QUOTE]

One bite too many can give you indigestion.

[AndyP]

Does that mean it's me? OMG, OMG, I'm not ready!!!!

[Captain Nemo]

Your chance to shine Champ

[Waddzy]

Just in time for the Caulfield .

[AndyP]

Just in time for the Caulfield .

What's a Caulfield?

[LeftyHoges]

What's a Caulfield?

A place to lose money.

[Waddzy]

What's a Caulfield?

Horse racing Andy , the Caulfield Cup is on this weekend. Which is likely where I will place most of my bets.

[Waddzy]

A place to lose money.

Still gotta be a better chance than soccer match betting but surely?

[AndyP]

Horse racing Andy , the Caulfield Cup is on this weekend. Which is likely where I will place most of my bets.

I like black horses. I'll punt on them.

[LeftyHoges]

Still gotta be a better chance than soccer match betting but surely?

About the same.

[Buzz]

I like black horses. I'll punt on them.

Black Caviar for example. Easy game.

[AndyP]

I can't see how I can go wrong. I'll stick to horseys in odd barriers too, and definitely not prime numbers.

[AndyP]

The iPhone App Store reviews are pretty scathing of the Tom Waterhouse app. Is it better to use the website?

[backintheswing]

App is fairly bad to be honest. I much prefer the website.

[Captain Nemo]

Yeh, its much better on the pc.
My mate works for the company that owns the betting platform for TW, Sportingbet, Centrebet etc...as they all use the base platform.
They are working on fixing the bugs....

[AndyP]

I did have a little play with it yesterday. Sportingbet's app seems better.

BITS can you send through log in details please.

[AndyP]

Bet 1 - All Tennis

Ivo Karlovic - Straight @ 1.33 (Federico Delbonis vs Ivo Karlovic)
Samuel Groth - Straight @ 1.25 (Samuel Groth vs Andrey Rublev)
Benjamin Becker - Straight @ 1.42 (Victor Hanescu vs Benjamin Becker)
Dominic Thiem - Straight @ 1.38 (Robin Haase vs Dominic Thiem)
Jeremy Chardy - Straight @ 1.17 (Jeremy Chardy vs Elias Ymer)
Stake: $ 36.00
Possible payout $137.22

I used to bet against Karlovic in the first rounds of Grand Slams, because he lost them so often, so it's a little worrying to be betting on him.

Nothing too risky there, except the reliance on 5 results. 3 matches tonight, 2 matches tomorrow night.

Is Sportsbet in the same company, their app is a dream to work with, especially the iPad one.

Jeremy Chardy - Straight @ 1.17 (Jeremy Chardy vs Elias Ymer)
Stake: $ 36.00
Possible payout $137.22

All matches were played last night, but unfortunately 4 out of 5 right wins nothing. Feel free to hate the loser Dominic Thiem from now on.

[PeteyD]

He can go play for the Crocs.

[LeftyHoges]

He can go play for the Crocs.

And PSG.

[AndyP]

Bet 2 - All Tennis

Sabine Lisicki - Straight @ 1.25 (Sabine Lisicki vs Denisa Allertova)
Flavia Pennetta - Straight @ 2.25 (Flavia Pennetta vs Camila Giorgi)
Grigor Dimitrov - Straight @ 1.15 (Teymuraz Gabashvili vs Grigor Dimitrov)
Mikhail Youzhny - Straight @ 1.10 (Mikhail Youzhny vs Victor Baluda)
Marin Cilic - Straight @ 1.12 (Evgeny Donskoy vs Marin Cilic)
$34 @ 3.98
Estimated Return: $135.48

Oh oh, betting on women's tennis; they are so unreliable. The key match here is Pennetta vs Giorgi. I'm hoping Pennetta's experience and consistency gets her the win.

[backintheswing]

What's with betting $36 and $34.
