Chip -600

Will update post Masters once I can bringmyself to look at the result without feeling suicidal.

Challenge ends this week with a £100 bet on The Grand National !

what position will get you a polo shirt chips?

I hope Brightonaremagic put his bets on in real life !!
New table should be interesting after the golf - now to the Grand National.
Play it safe? Or go Big?


brightonaremagic:

P Hanson £100 @ 5.4
L OOSTHUZEN £100 @ 7
B Watson £100 @ 11

All Win only

Surely a post that late into Masters - before the first tee off - is a bit late.
Tho if I'd known that I would have waited for 3/4 of the tourney to have been played before placing my bet.

Good luck to Brightonaremagic if allowed.

I've got to go big on Grand National. I expect I'm second bottom just above chip.

Sorry - after the first tee off...

Those genuinely were the prices on the off Nick.

Obviously some of us were on OOSTHUZEN for real @ 24 and point blank refused to lay off near the end because we felt Bubba couldnt possibly win, what with him being a horrible, chokey, pink driver using ****.

The advantage of playing late with a 4 day event is that you are on a player who is in contention. The downside is that you dont get the fancy odds.

I suspect a few who backed Bubba to be top 10, are wishing they had gone 50 e.w. in the outrights instead at Ascot prices.

Burton as BF PR cant win a prize, and some wont want one, I can guarantee you a polo shirt for finishing in the top 4.

Table after WEEK However many we've had ( feels like forever ):

Keith A +1574.50
BF PR +1217.19
Brighton +1036
Burton + 826
HF +672.50
Wonky +335
Bruce +286.25
Aidfur +285
J Love +74.08
gnash +32.43
Nick -63.28
Snap -100
de1 -103
AJ -182.66
Geezer -186.75
poopy -200
SAFC -227.28
KLUP -343.64
Chip -600

Obviously even with just one event to go, technically anyone apart from me could still win the thing if they find a 20-1 winner of the National. However with the Golden Lever functioning brilliantly, it does appear to be Keith A's title to lose.

There's a Betfair hoodie and more importantly extended bragging rights to the eventual Tipping Challenge King, and polo shirts and baseball caps for anybody posting a decent score. Sizes are Large and XL because thats what I was sent, and I will do my very best to get everything posted within a couple of days of the final event and anyone wanting a prize contacting me as long as I can afford the postage. I've never sent anything like this in the post before and have no idea what it costs, or what sort of envelopes to use !

Thats OK mate. You are doing well on this. And well played the Brighton fan. Still we beat them 4-2 in FA cup some years back. The eldest nipper on my shoulders for 90 minutes. Torquay offering £20k for Jamie Ndah when I think they wanted our other striker. And then Mickey Droy our manager at the time quoting on match of the day that he was worth only 5 match balls and a set of training bibs...


I should have gone for wins for my lot from the off.

Genuinely first Augusta last day that I've watched for years. Fantastic albatross and Bubba's recovery at end from horrible tee shot. And then all the blubbering.

Nearly made up for the horrible suckouts I had at the end of a couple of tourneys on sunday night.

Looks like I'm looking for a 40/50-1 national winner. You may need a 100-1 shot.

Perhaps not... 40/1. Just to show how little I understand this betting lark.

What are the odds on race being stopped by a nutter protesting? And is that bloke that stopped the boat race still in custody?

I'll pay the postage chips should I be lucky enough to stay in the top 4.

Chip - If I win I want your 888 hoodie ;-)

PS Keep the receipts for postage and I will pay you back

shakalakaboomboom 25/1 100 win

Giles Cross £100 at 6.8 to place (or at 28's to win if we can't do a place)

Naughty Bruce!

is it just one £100 bet chips or can you have two £50 bets?

Place only is fine.

Its one £100 bet, though you can do each ways, reverse forecast, or play on any of the BF markets eg Irish trained winner, number of finishers etc.

Bragging rights and a hoodie to Thrappers, polo shirts and baseball caps to Brighton, Keith, Burton, and Wonky.Prizes are not obligatory, but anyone who wants theirs can drop me a PM with an address for postage and I will get them sent out ASAP. Sizes are XL or L.

Thanks to everyone who took part, and I hope you all got a few winning bets out of it!

Thanks for organising it Chip ... Much appreciated!

same here chip, I'm sure it takes up a bit of time

Yes thanks Chip for doing this, I know it takes up a bit of your time and the amount of views shows how much people enjoy it.

Now for the gloating bit, how good am I?  Remember I also had Oosthuizen beaten in a play off in the Masters too as my only bet that week!

In the interests of fair play I will duck my prize of the hoody as on my various Betfair trips I have picked up plenty of Hoodies so will happily donate it to Brightonaremagic for his honourable if distant second.

Thanks again Chip.

I will endeavour to get all merchandise sent out this week, the kids are off so will badger one of them into packaging things up and taking them to the Post Office. It's the least they can do in return for the fortune I've spent on Graham Coxon tickets for them tonight.

If thrappers is giving up his prize to 2 nd can I grab one of the baseball caps for next place in the leader board chip?

Yes of course you can. You can have a polo shirt too. L or XL ?

Thanks for organising Chippy, shame Thrappers got so lucky on the national

XL for me pls

L
Thanks
Hope we can do another challenge soon

Well done everyone - a thoroughly entertaining tipping competition.
Thanks for sorting chip

Right, thus far I've bagged up XL polo shirt and cap for Burton, L polo shirt and cap for Bruce, and XL hoodie for Brighton.

Keith I need you to send me a delivery address via pm and I will bag up an XL polo shirt and cap.

This leaves a large polo shirt and cap for Wonky if he wants them. Dunno if anyone is able to contact him ?

Once I've got details for Wonky and Keith I will get one of the kids to take them into town and post out.

how do i pm you?

@Anyone back up yet, did you not get the memo?

Hi Keith, if you hover over my name it should give you the option to send message.

Baseball caps are a nightmare to get in envelpoes !

Wrap them in a box with confetti and a ribbon, Betfair HQ are paying

I need to buy some bigger padded envelopes !!

Hi chip if you dont mind me asking how do you intend spending
your 120 live ticket you won.Got one sunday but if no tournaments
near home my ticket will go to waste.

It's a satelitte ticket mate. The actual game is on Sunday night with two 1.4k Prague packages guaranteed, and it normally only has about 20 runners. Standard is pretty poor. Its on exactly the same time as the Sunday Community game so we can all cheer you on when you play it.

cheers m8

Good luck, it's definitely the sort of satelitte our Community Players are capable of cashing in, and of course if you do, its an all expenses trip to Prague and the chance to win serious money !

Will be cheering you on too from rail unless we try and satellite in too.

I now have an address for all the prize winners, and have bagged up all the prizes. They will be sent out either Monday afternoon or Tuesday morning by first class post.

thanks chip

gear arrived today chip, very nice and many thanks again

Received mine too thanks a lot.
Made my house mate laugh when he collected a package for 'Bruce  Willis'

Wow, that was quick, my daughter only took them down the Post Office yesterday afternoon about 4 o clock !

They didn't increase the price of a stamp for nothing!
