    A new idea but for those who fancy a flutter.

    Rules
    1) PM me for entry to this competition before Friday 21st @ 23:59
    2) When entered each person is given 100e virtual stakes
    3) I will post odds for top 5 in each event with others on request (or if an event hasn't been priced up yet)
    4) Stakes can be used in any way (minimum bet 1e but can be used in any way so can have 1 single 100e bet)
    5) Multiples and each way allowed (e/w terms will be added to each field)
    6) Winnings can be used for future bets.

    Person with the highest balance at the end of the championship will recieve a prize.

    Couple of questions:
    Do you have to get your bets in before the heats start?
    Any chance of a schedule, or maybe just mark on each event the deadline for placing bets?

    Can we get prices on the men's 10,000? i see the final is on the first day (along with the men's marathon)...

    Bets placed before the heats yes. The one exception for this is the Prelim rounds in the 100m will not be included.

    Currently working through the list of day one events as priority so all the markets priced up so far (bar some of the bigger ones initially) start on Saturday

    Deadline so far is as follows

    Friday Irish time
    00:35 - Mens Marathon
    02:00 - Womens Heptathlon
    02:30 - Mens Hammer
    03:10 - Womens Shot Putt
    03:25 - Mens Steeplechase
    04:15 - Womens 1500m
    04:50 - Mens 800m

    11:35 - Mens 400m hurdles
    11:40 - Mens Pole Vault
    12:10 - Womens Triple Jump
    12:20 - Mens 100m
    13:50 - Mens 10,000m

    I will add these to the fieldbooks shortly.

    be a good idea if you just updated the first post with the list, easier to follow


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,306 ✭✭✭Myles Splitz

    Given number of events probably won't fit, also if that happens falls off the front page and probably missed by some so defeats the purpose of trying to drum up attention for the sports biggest event of the year.

    Aim is to try and encourage the casual fan not already heavily involved in Track and field to generate interest in events they might not have previously had any interest in.

    I'll try and do up a google doc the day before the championship to simplify things.

    Yes it is possible it's a win treble and a place.

    It means 1 win and two places or 2 wins and 1 place calculate the same

    Effectively he has 40e staked

    If all win he gets 14,332.50e
    If one places and two win he gets 562.5e
    If 2 place and one he gets 562.5e
    If all three place he gets the same.

    One loser however and they are all losers.
