Super 14 2010

How about the silly bugger in Aussie who put about $400,000 on the Stormers to beat the Reds...

Think it was a Saffie

 

[Smudge]

I have bet $30 on the bulls to beat the lions. I am regretting my bet because I only win a measly $1.20 - it is like what is the point. I guess the TAB doesn't want to lose any money.

Why should the TAB give you free money? If it's a banana skin game, and you didn't feel comfortable about taking the $1.20, why did you take it?

 

[Athlai]

Should clearly be paying out $2 on what appears to be the most closest of contests.

 

[Smudge]

Exactly - the Bulls should be at $2.20 and the Lions at $5. That way, all punters win.

Meanwhile, the bookie gets fired...

Better start this week for me on two levels...

 

[Athlai]

Just got 1 point away from Social thanks to Highlanders-Stormers and we made the same picks for the rest of the matches. Also have a chance to tie things up with Somerset if the Reds come out on top.

Tbh, I picked both the Stormers and Warataths because I hoped, rather than believed, that both of those bloody teams would actually show some balls with final places on the line

More fool me!

* Simon didn't make any picks though as per Heath earlier in the competition I therefore gave him the home sides for each game - though as 6/7 home sides won and no one picked more than 5/7 I'd consider that an extremely lucky break...
