The Virtual Bookmaker

Postby Bourne

ANYONE can join in, no matter what age you are. All bets are virtual, so no real money is exchanged, it's just a bit of fun.

- If you want to take part, just post your first bet and you'll be put into the main article (below) along with how much money you've got to play with.
- Each new player is credited with £1000 to start with.
- Minimum bet is £10
- Bets only count if they're placed on markets where are odds are quoted in the article below. Check the deadline next to each market, any bets after that deadline are void.
- If and when you hit £0, you must wait 48 hours for a re-load. The amount of money you owe to the bank will be noted in the article below.
- If you'd like a new market put up, then just let me know. I want us to concentrate on mainly snooker and all sports, no horse-racing as odds change very quickly and I can't be here all the time to keep them updated. Marquee races are included. Some specials will be allowed.
- All odds from Betfair taken at time of when added here.
- Once a bet is placed in this article, it cannot be changed or cancelled.
- If you over spend what you have in your balance (ie if you bet £400 on something but only have £200 in your balance), then that bet will be void.
- Please place the market, odds and stake in your bet, so it's easier for reference purposes.
- Accumulators are allowed, consult THIS site to work out your bets.
Any other questions, just ask.

Excellent idea Bourne, and I'm up for it... on the horseracing though, could you perhaps cover the big races? I know that it's unrealistic to be following an entire card, but maybe the big one on each day of the Cheltenham festival, the Derby and the Grand National?

Re: The Virtual Bookmaker
