O\'Hara_fan Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 4/9 would mean that you would have to put 9 on to get 4 back. So if you put 4 on you would get 9, and the 4 you put on back. If you put 8 on you would get 18 back + the 8 you put on.5/4 would mean you have to put 5 on to get 4 back, so if you put 1 on you would get one quarter of 5 back + the 1 you put on. That confuses me even more. Can someone help me here please? Arsenal: 4/5(fav) Draw: 2-1 Tottenham: 3-1 - 2 on a Draw Sunderland: 3-1 Draw: 2-1 Man Utd: 4-5(Fav) - 2 on Manchester United Victory Thats what I put, I'd lose 2 on the Arsenal Spurs game, so what would I get for the Sunderland Man U game?

BP_Doosra Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Dunno if I'm doing this right but if I put 4 on Villa to beat Pompey then I get nothing, but from the 6 I put on West Ham at 13-8 do I get 9.75 in winnings as well as the 6 I bet? Does this mean I end that round with a total of 15.75 leaving me with 55.75 for next round? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razer82 Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Thanks for confirming that.I'll have :- 5 on Man United to beat Sunderland @ 4-5 5 on Mboro and Bolton to draw @ 11-5 Man United won @ 4-5 so I get 4 plus my original stake of 5 = 9 Mboro & Bolton drew @ 11-5 so I get 11 plus my original stake of 5 = 16 Giving me a total of 65 credits.

chopper99 Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 I had 5 credits on Man Utd to win at 4-5. That gives me 4 credits plus my 5 credits back which equals 9 credits. I had 5 credits on Chelsea to win at 4-6. I think that gives me 3.33 credits plus my 5 credits back which equals 8.33 credits. So that's 17.33 credits back for my 10 credits that I used giving me a new total of 57.33 credits. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chopper99 Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 4/9 would mean that you would have to put 9 on to get 4 back. So if you put 4 on you would get 9, and the 4 you put on back. If you put 8 on you would get 18 back + the 8 you put on. This is incorrect. If the odds are 4/9 and you put 4 on you do not get 9 back, you get 1.75 (ish) plus your 4 back, giving a total of 5.75 for your 4 credits if you win. If you put 8 on you would get about 3.5 back, plus the 8 you put on which gives a total of 11.5 credits back for your 8 credit stake. 5/4 would mean you have to put 5 on to get 4 back, so if you put 1 on you would get one quarter of 5 back + the 1 you put on. This is correct, if you put 5 credits on at 5/4 and win you would win 1.25 credits and get your 5 credits back, giving you a total of 6.25. The easiest way to work it out is to turn the odds into decimals and multiply it by your stake. So 4/9 becomes 0.44. Multiply this by your 4 credit stake and you get 1.75(ish). Add that to your 4 credit stake and you get a total of 5.75 credits back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PluckaDuck Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Arkitekt88, I don't think that you can blame anyone for thinking that the sign-up is dead as you had not posted for a very long time. I think 'blowcrapup' had also though that it was dead, and liked the idea so planned to continue the sign-up in his own right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
blowcrapup Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 I did think it was dead but I also PM'd him. To be fair he did get back to me but had already posted that message. Maybe I should have waited a bit longer before making the list but as you can see there was still interest in it. Apolgies as I didn't want to steal the idea but rather continue what was a good idea.
