£10,000 from £8 bet in running

[piersa]

I had a bet at the start of the season which is starting to look tasty. When do others think i should hedge some?

Good wager... Not until you can work out the win amount tho! £3.5k is nearer the mark

 

[Nottseagull]

Whatever it may be potentially worth, I'd think less about hedging and more about preventing forgery and fraud, now that you've displayed this document to the nation.......

I worked it out as it curretnly stands. 9/1, 20/1, 9/1 & 16/1 plus all the places. If the lolwer priced ones come in it is about £3500.

It wasn't a good idea to show the barcode though

that is a very good point. I will re edit. Thanks

Sorry but what kind of bet is that? Only i'd happily have done that at the start of the season, but presumed you could only pick one top scorer for each division, whereas you seem to have done it so it's one of two players.
Thanks in advance.

It is a permed bet. It is basically lots of accumulators, two players from each div. There fore number of bets is 2x2x2x2 = 16 bets @25p ew = £8

Thanks in advance.

You forgot to end with Yours sincerely

So each selection must be either 1st or 2nd top scorer? Or only one from each division must come in? Sorry i'm a bit slow on anything bar a simple accumulator.

 

[piersa]

So each selection must be either 1st or 2nd top scorer or is that incorrect?

That is correct. These bets are always fun if you have a few running for you. This years attempt is particularly good!

Just to clarify, one of the selections in each div needs to be top in order to win big but if you can get one in each div in first four then you win an ech way leg of the bet.

Surely it is 32 four-fold accumulators?

Good luck mate, hope it comes in for ya... Remember me lol...

how so? if it is a permed bet you just multiply the number in each leg by the next to find total number of bets.

Did 7 cup games at 2 quid for £118 return. Guess which team was the only one to let me down!

Sorry, I didn't notice the 'ew' part.
