is it too late to enter this?

early stages of a self dealt tourney in salford back when i was at uni, i put someone all in on the river and they called my bluff. it was some terrible bluff from me so i instantly mucked my crap cards and slid my chips into the middle. i had about 30k they had about 15k but this didn't dawn on me until i'd walked away from the table and i was too embarrassed to go back so just went home lol.

First thing I'd do is give Annie a pair of Richie Rich's sunglasses...

lol

one of champagne fever/vautour will go for the ryanair, apart from that the rest sort themselves? (assuming all get there injury free)

instead we should be working out the chance he doesn't win with each ride, and multiplying those like an accumulator

I'm crap with the maths on this sort of stuff, but Betfair SB have 3-1 on McCoy to ride a winner today.

Hargam 13-2
Ned B 9-2
Carlingford 11-1
Princely Conn 10-1
Fletchers Flyer 20-1

If someone could run the numbers, but that seems ok to me? Wont recommend until someone confirms if its good or not!

Anyone from Team Maths around, to run these numbers? Doobs is busy actuaryating, & Argue seems to be on a sabbbatical.

Wish I knew the formula but these odds come to : 25740/1980 , 25740/2860, 25740/2340, 25740/2574, 25740/1287

Which when added together make :  25740/11041 = 2.33  , which makes it a great bet I think!

Feel free to correct the high school maths workings :p

The maths for future reference is as follows:-

First turn the fractional odds into decimal odds by adding 1

13/2 = 7.5 decimal
9/2 = 5.5
11/1 = 12.0
10/1 = 11.0
20/1 = 21.0

Next find the percentage chance of the selection winning by dividing into 100

100 / 7.5 = 13.33 %
100 / 5.5 = 18.18 %
100 / 12 = 8.33 %
100 / 11 = 9.09 %
100 / 21 = 4.76 %

Now add all these Percentages together as anyone will win the bet, a OR b OR c OR d OR e

Equals 53.69 %

Now convert this back to decimal odds

100 / 53.69 = 1.86

So about 5/6

i don't think this is the correct way of working out this bet? for example, if all 5 were actually even money shots your method produces...?

i think 45 minute levels for day 1 is good for these tournaments given the field size

maybe give everyone a  "banker" selection per day worth double points or something? that should enable everyone to have some sort of sweat going into the last

i always bloody forget to send my selections after day 1 but IN

my dad took me to my first festival back in the year 2000. we'd travelled up 7am on the train and we'd had a bet on edredon bleu in the queen mother chase...

i don't know how he did it, but he did. i re-watch this race about this time of year, every year, and it still gives me goosebumps. the sport will miss mccoy in the saddle and so will i.

hmm i thought we had to deposit in £ and the client changes it into $. if you deposit in $ your bank will charge you a fee no?

right now if i deposit £100 into party poker it turns that into $148.57 whilst xe.com is $152.27, that's a 2.4% difference.

maybe not the place to bring this up but if partypoker is really "fully committed to the UK market" can something please be done with the 3% currency conversion charges for depositing and withdrawing £/$ on the client.
