If we can get 6 places, we'll make a amount of money. If we don't get at least a place in each race, then we're all destitute.
Just pick all favourites no?Her sky-ness

Just pick all favourites no?
If all favs win then the prizepool will be split among those who picked all the favs, and chances are there would be a decent few of them, so less money each. Our 15k is a small drop in the ocean in terms of amount of money punted.

Serious thanks to Rob and HiCloy for stepping up, and of course to BCB for marketing the shit out of it in the BBV knowing the degen in all of us would grasp at the idea with knobbly hands.
To be honest though, the best part of scooping all this cash is gonna be the meetup and boozefest when we bingo.This may or may not be an original thought of my own.
All efforts were made to make this thought original but with the abundance of thoughts in the world the originality of this thought cannot be guaranteed.

This thread is like an epidemic! Sick amount of money in the kitty, gl!
I know nothing about horses, but what is the best tactic for this? Will you be loading the first couple of races (or more horse picks in bigger fields), or spreading picks out evenly? I'm not really even sure i get it.
If you collect ~€17k (~£14k) then this can buy you 7000 lines, so you pick a combo of horses in each race that uses up all your lines, e.g 6x5x5x4x4x3 = 7200 perms.
Is that the general jist?

as the site was down last night, i will leave this open til 10am this morning.
I will post a latest update regarding shares booked and paid shortly.
good work on the horse analysis poprock, that kinda sheet could be very useful.
I will change the payment deadline to a strict midday on Thursday, all funds must be in my account by then.
This is important to ensure I can get all the funds onto the totes account in time.

Cheers for all the hard work, Rob! I don't think anybody was expecting this kind of turnout. We all owe you a drink whatever the outcome, that's for sure."I can’t find anyone who agrees with what I write or think these days, so I guess I must be getting closer to the truth." - Hunter S. Thompson

I'm sure a lot of ye have seen this before,billy walters one of the most successful gamblers of all time(football/basketball)but the principles remain the same,he speaks here in a very rare interview,there's a few hints in there where he speaks about cross-contamination(5min in-5.min30sec),where he says "they dont know each other,they dont talk to each other,the only common denominator is me",(he is the master),my suggestion is that the 'horsie heads' that what to do the donkey work ,send their selections along with their reasoning via pm to our master+advisor,if they choose to use them,then fine,if not then so be it,their decision is final.(thats if they agree to this),what we dont want is lads kicking the shit out of each others selections/thought process,the time frame is just too small,we have a decent pot here,might as well give it our best shot.
@ gab,what time would the last scoop 6 bet be accepted(just to know our time frame)
