That would make no sense at all, you could back a million pounds on each outcome and be guaranteed return ... please show me the bookies that offer these odds on a 2 horse race and I promise to pay you 5% commission rofl

good idea, i asked for one in china but it went unanswered.
we had matchplay for the world champ quals so seems right to follow it through on the main event

Sorry. This is the main event of the season, and I think it would be a bit ridiculous to have two people claiming ot be 'World Champion'. I'm sticking with one tournament. Template is up.


i agree with tubber :ahh:

Christ, I have one round in one event where my instinct took me to predict 16 seeds without even spotting it, 15 of them won and now I'm being accused of never picking against seeds!
