£250 on option 4 and £250 on option 5 please

Thanks

I make that an overround of 173%.

And? It does not matter what the overround is. It is like betting at a gaff dog track where all 6 dogs are evens, but the bookies still end up getting booted. The punters on here still end up booting my virtual ass either way. Are you suggesting I give away even more of my virtual cash? I have already given nearly 10 grand away to the punters so far. I suppose it is Christmas soon......

All six dogs are Evens? Sounds like Wallyford back in the day. "Nae odds on shots here!"

The difference with the gaff tracks is that the punters were supposed to know which one was going to win, and the bookies maybe didn't, hence, as you say, the short prices about all six.

I went to Wishaw dogs once on a night out years ago and met some Glasgow punters I knew from the poker scene. It was the first time I'd ever been there. As soon as they clocked me they asked me:

"Which one is it?"
"Eh?"
"Which one are you here to bet? You've never been here before, you must be here to bet one."
"I'm just here on a night out with the boys, I don't know anything, honestly."
"Aye, right.."

They didn't believe me. They were convinced I knew something, but I didn't.

Not that any of this has anything to do with Strictly.

Interesting. Sounds a bit like Armadale dogs to me!

I've been to Armadale dogs!!!

So have I. And Wallyford and Powderhall as well and I made a book at both.
