for me its all about getting the winner in the last race so i can get as close to 60.0 as i can i make that eh break even point for the week

really enjoyed this week when is the next one?

If Mere is amenable - which I would have thought is highly improbable - we may persuade him to do something for The Open Golf.

This has, as always, been tremendous fun, & Mere really makes it tick along nicely, for all his obduracy.

The Open starts 16th July.
I'm happy to run something along the same lines as The Masters competition if there is sufficient interest (and sufficient markets exist).
Alternatively, if anyone has any ideas for freshening the format up, let me know.

Count me in if you do.

Happy to go with the flow as to format etc.

These Threads are really good for blonde, in so many ways.

The same format as The Masters should be fine as it's a truly international tournament with all countries/continents well-represented.

Deal me in please.

I wonder if it would be possible to add some "match bet" facility, so I could challenge the likes of, say, Methuselah, Big D, Eso Kral & Co. I could earn a tidy few bob that way.

Yes, congrats to Doobs, doubleup, and Dawg.

In for anything you do for the golf, even though I know less about that than racing (believe it or not  Grin)

Well done Doobs, Doubleup and NigDawg.

An astounding performance by Tal too.

Many thanks to Baron Spreadsheet for yet another peerless performance as quizmaster-general.

Thanks for running it Mere.

Only change I'd make is bigger font and bold for those on zero.  Maybe some flashing stars surrounding it?

Seriously, it is hard enough to hold on the last day with everyone punting outsiders.  I don't think it needs a change and it is going to increase admin.  And we have all copped for the unintended favourite at one time or another in the week. Think comp is fine as it is.  

Thanks again

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

Congratulations to the winners.

Thanks for running this Vince, always well organised and great fun.

I will only participate in future ones if Tikay assures me that the LL's are on as it's the only opportunity I get to actually winning in these competition things :-)

Big_D finished in top half of the table; you finished in the bottom half.
I believe that you owe him breakfast, lunch and dinner.

That matter is currently in dispute, & has gone to arbitration.
