The NSC £10 to £10,000 Challange

[1066gull]

This is a little game I have thought of that can be a little fun for all of us. It will only cost you a tenner and should take less than 3 months to reach 10k!

If you want you can start with only a pound and aim for a grand.

Right, everyday we will all bet once. The odds have to be 1/10 or very near enough. If our odds are 1/6 obviously it will take quicker to reach your target.

Now the rules, we all have to place down the exact winnings we won previously. This game should take you 73 bets in a row! So who is up to the challenge!


Remember, always bet exactly what you won.

Count me in. Seems interesting enough, hope this thread keeps updated though!

 

[Tim Over Whelmed]

WTF? You'll lose, obviously, you have to win 73 times in a row?

 

[Safeway]

Sounds like one of those pyramid schemes.

 

[spig100963]

I will have a look. Sounds like my sort of madness. Should we all use the same bookmaker?

 

[spig100963]

Sorry. Read this wrong. Thought we where all going to put money on same bet.
Will still have some though. When do we start?

[Barry Izbak]

Yes, I like it. I did something similar a coupld of years ago, starting with £1.
I managed about five in a row, and confess to bailing out when I got to about £80
I wasn't betting on such harsh odds though. Its hard to find odds shorter than 1/6 on a regular basis.

Next time I see something that short, I'll make a start.

Brighton v Sheff Wed - Total Match Goals Under/Over

Under 4.5 @ 1/10

Backing short priced favs PLACE only instead of WIN should provide a few more 1/10 shots.
Especially if you do it on the tote as they usually return the minimum of £1.10 per unit.

I like that!

We should all bt on 1/10 bets that are Brighton related and see who gets to 10k first.

 

[¡Cereal Killer!]

Sounds tempting, but highly unlikely to get to 10k. If I got to a grand I would probably bottle it lol.

 

[1066gull]

Look at it this way ou only stand to lose a tenner, the rest is the bookies money. I've been living in the bookies money for weeks

Ok I am a betting novice but how can you bet on scoring less than four and HALF goals?

If it's 4 then it's less, if it's 5 then it's more. The other way to say it would be "4 goals or under" and "5 goals or over" but it's not quite as snappy!

 

[1066gull]

It's to make it clear that only 4 goals maximum can be scored until you lose.

I don't completely follow?
Are we placing 100% of our balance on each bet every day?

Could someone post a mock example of what we're doing?
...feeling like a right spanner
