Vegas on Vegas
Anybody care to dance with Lady Luck?
Below is a listing from an online sporstbook, giving the odds to win the race. You've got $100 to play with. Spread it out as you wish. Bet any driver to WIN, PLACE or SHOW. I'll use the favourite, Bourdais, as an example. Payout for a $1.00 WIN bet is $2.60. And so, you'd actually "win" $1.60 on your $1 bet. A PLACE bet (top-2) would pay 1/2 of that, or $0.80. Therefore, the payout would be $1.80. A SHOW bet (podium) would pay 1/3, or $0.54. (Rounded up to nearest penny) And the payout would be $1.54. Spend your money wisely! The booking closes at the start of Rookie Practice, which is 3pm ET on Friday. After the race, I'll tally up everybody's winnings (losses) and announce the 10T's "Gambler of the Year". The proud champion wins, well, I guess not much more than "bragging rights". Don't know what else to give ya! Payouts per $1.00: $ WIN - PLACE - SHOW - DRIVER $ 2.60 -- 1.80 -- 1.54 - Bourdais $ 4.33 -- 2.67 -- 2.11 - Tracy $ 4.50 -- 2.75 -- 2.17 - Servia $ 6.50 -- 3.75 -- 2.84 - Wilson $ 8.00 -- 4.50 -- 3.34 - Allmendinger $13.00 -- 7.00 -- 5.00 - da Matta $15.00 -- 8.00 -- 5.67 - Tagliani $17.00 -- 9.00 -- 6.34 - Dominguez $21.00 - 11.00 -- 7.67 - Vasser $29.00 - 15.00 - 10.33 - Ranger $34.00 - 17.50 - 12.00 - Hunter-Reay $34.00 - 17.50 - 12.00 - Marshall $34.00 - 17.50 - 12.00 - Philippe $41.00 - 21.00 - 14.34 - Bremer $41.00 - 21.00 - 14.34 - Lavin $51.00 - 26.00 - 17.67 - Glock $51.00 - 26.00 - 17.67 - Sperafico $67.00 - 34.00 - 23.00 - Wirdheim Last edited by macdaddy; 23 Sep 2005 at 03:29. |

Technically, the booking was to end at 3PM today. But it seems that we had two late entries. I guess that we can let them stand.
Okay... The next step is for everybody to PM me with their credit card details, including expiry dates. There will be a one-time charge of $100, which should appear on your next statement.
