WTS CASINO Sports Book OPEN

[Samrothstein]

Hello Ladies and Gents,

I have heard a lot of chatter about the upcoming SK BotB, and I have decided to take it upon myself to open the doors to the Casino's Sports Book. Here is how it works, all odds are listed below, you can pick as many people and bet as much on them as you want. All bets are to WIN and have to be given to me either in EC or the Arena (I will be arriving there fairly early) prior to the start of the event. Once the event starts all bets are CLOSED. If you pick the winner you get whatever his odds are times your bet back! So if you bet 10k on one of the 2/1 people you get 20k back from me if they win! I will have to limit the size of the bet on some of the long shots depending on how much is in my bank. You will notice that there are NO odds on Bigpop, this is because a good friend of mine already bet me more than I want to lose on him! In this same reguard, if any of the contestents get too much money bet on them I will close them out as well. This will ensure that the house can cover. I wish everyone but Bigpop the best of luck tomorrow! Look for me in game as Samuelrothstein!


Odds:

Xadion 2/1
Toleez 5/1
Holyspawn 7/1
Cone 20/1
Dreiga 30/1
Raymor 4/1
Myuharin 5/1
Trysa 10/1
Fattyfatty 7/1
Knightt 8/1
Hatelore 5/1
Darkbane 33/1
Shekico 2/1
Bigpop CLOSED
Zeelot 3/2
Brutillus 5/3
Bringback 7/1
Sentenza 3/2
Olidaen 2/1

What happens if someone bets 10k on Cone and he wins?

All other bets are placed on other players for 1k?

You are really going to payout a 150k loss? Yeah right.

If you have to close people out odds are you will not be able to cover anyway -- just sayin.

Since they're running a third place match, can we get some numbers placed on these so I can bet the trifecta?

Treats... That is actually exactally what I have sat aside incase Cone or any other non 60 SK wins. It is what I stand to lose to my close friend if Bigpop comes up on top so if I am willing to risk it for one, why not all? As I said I will cap bets so that there is more than enough plat to pay ALL winners!


Oddibemcd... It took a lot more time that I had planned to come up with the odds for winners. I can not get you odds on other placings. I have mainly based it off of resists and known gear. Those with the lowest odds each have multiple loots off of PD and 40 MR from just head and chest slots. If I have a good responce I will put more time into the next rounds and have more options, but for tomorrow it will have to limit bets to first place only.

Instead of running this with fixed odds, like a football game, why not run it with moving odds like horse racing. You've worked a huge house edge into your listed odds (which I can't complain with, the EC casinos offer odds that range between bad and terrible and you deserve some sort of compensation for your time), but if you listed the take and the amount wagered on each competitor you could adjust the odds for each person as money is wagered, decrease your edge because of the guaranteed return and provide a more accurate snapshot of what the P99 community really thinks about the potential for each SK to win.

In the same vein, has anyone tried to run an actual book on P99? I've thought about it but never had the bankrole, nor the name cache to make it work. With the FCS bowl games and the NFL playoffs on the horizon, it would be a nice thing to have. Could probably make it work with 4:3 wagering (for every 4pp wagered, 3pp would be won) and would be a nice little thing to have.
