Last Man Standing - B&I Lions Betting Comp

Ok lads we haven't done one of these in a while

The competition is "Last Man Standing" and it starts this weekend on the Lions Tour.

Here is how it will work

Format
• Each punter starts with R100 virtual money
• Each punter bets his entire balance of R100 on a Lions Tour Match Bet starting this Saturday with Lions v B&I Lions
• Odds must not be shorter than 5/10 or bigger than 3/1 (this applies throughout the competition)
• Those punters that survive the 1st match move onto the 2nd (Sharks v BIL) and once again the entire balance is staked on a single bet
• You hit your bet you move onto the next match with your balance, you lose you are out.

How do you win?
There are 2 ways to win

1. You have the highest balance at the end of 8 matches
3. Everyone else is out and you are the last one standing (if there is no one left standing highest balance heading into that match wins)

To enter simply place your opening bet on this thread with the info below

Match 1: B&I Lions handicap -21.5 at 9/10 Name Bookmaker e.g WSB R90/R100

If you win then R190 will go on match 2 and you must carry your balance through

Rules
• Bets must be placed before kickoff of each match
• No in running bets accepted
• Price must be available at the time of placing the bet
• Balances to be rounded down to the nearest R10 each week
• Players to calculate their own balances and carry them through
• Non SA players welcome and payment will be done by PayPal
• Players must bet on every game of the Tour

.Miss a game and you are out

- Single bets only, no multiples
- Threads may not be edited other than to add info which was left off, prices may not be changed and once placed a bet is final, no edits at all after kickoff of a game

Judges (that's me) decision is final

Any questions shout and break a leg everyone

Popgun you beauty!

Guys Hanrick and I will also enter and if we win the R500 prize will roll over to another competition.

Remember your full balance must be staked on the Sharks game and bets must be in before kickoff.

A couple of rule amendments/additions

- balances can round down to the nearest rand (had initially said R10 but that was based on a R1000 starting balance)
- If we go into the final week all entries must be e-mailed to me and not posted - I will post them all (only if we go all the way)

Match 2: Lions over 5.5 tries 8/10 Sportingbet 144/180 (324)

14 players march on and Kompos opens up a commanding lead - but will he change strategy? Please check and shout if any errors guys - we say cheers to 5 punters, thanks for playing guys
