See below Rules: Players start with a virtual bank of £100. Players can stake up to 50% of their current bank in any one week until their bank drops to £10. Minimum bet is £5 or half bank if that is lower. Once the bank drops to £10 or lower, the players stake must be either half bank or 'All in'. The player will be eliminated if an 'All in' bet loses. Players can bet on the following markets: Outright Result, Both Teams To Score and Over/Under 2.5 goals. Players are required to select ONE bet per week only and can be a combination of the above. Players can either bet on a single, a double or a treble only on any of the accepted markets. No Editing of bets to change selections, just repost if you change your mind. Players must play in 7 weeks during the 10 week season or will be eliminated. Only exception to the above rule is when a player misses 3 weeks on the trot, this will also result in elimination. Any bets posted outside these limits will be reduced in order written. (i.e.; 4 fold down to a treble) No bets will be accepted that are related in any way, in other words you can only use a team once in your bet whether that be BTTS, Over/Unders or 1,X,2. Any bets posted in error will be settled on the first part of the bet and the others treated as NR's. All bets must be posted by 3pm on Saturday (earlier if it’s a Friday or Sat Midday game. If a game is abandoned or postponed the bet will be reduced, ie; Treble to a double etc.. No rearranged matches will be taken into account. Prices to be taken from the supplied Odds thread only. (If it’s not on there, you can’t do it) Any bets with instructions missing will be governed by the price taken, after that bets will be settled in the positive outcome. (Overs/ BTTS) If no stake has been attached to the bet a default £10 win will apply or half of your bank if its less than £10. If any bet is posted after the kick off, that match will become void and the rest of the bet reduced. Treble to a Double, Double to a Single. If it was a single the whole bet will be void and a no-show will be awarded. In week 10 of the mini season duplicate bets in the same division is not allowed, first come first served, any copied bets will deemed as a loser under the fair play rule. The TC Odds thread will be posted up each Tuesday for the following weekend matches and selections threads will be set up at the same time. League tables will be posted once all matches have been completed for that week, typically this will be after the Monday night match. The Sat 3pm deadline for all bets is put in place so no one can gain an advantage by knowing if an opponent has won or lost before placing his bet. So strictly no posts allowed after the deadline will be accepted.

BillyHills Posted August 9, 2017 Author Share Posted August 9, 2017 Rules and Format for posting of bets In this seasons TC Competition we are introducing two new bets along with the usual 1,X,2. 'Under/Over 2.5' goals and 'Both Teams To Score' will be accepted. Here are the rules regarding posting the various bets. If there is any information missing from the instructions the price taken will govern which part of the bet you have asked for. For example if you have put 'Man Utd Over/Under 1.80' then if the price for Over 2.5 goals was 1.80 then it will be settled accordingly. If the prices are the same for either side of the bet then the 'positive' outcome will be taken. For example if you write 'Arsenal Over/Under' then the bet will be settled on the 'overs'. Likewise the BTTS bet will be settled for both teams scoring if there is no hint of what you have requested. Preferred Format Examples Man Utd (1) 1.67 Liverpool (1) 1.80 £20 Double _________________________ Man Utd Over 2.5 2.50 Arsenal Under 2.5 2.38 Chelsea (1) 1.40 £20 Treble ___________________________ Spurs BTTS 2.50 Chelsea BTTS NO 2.63 Man Utd Over 2.5 2.50 £10 Treble Any queries just ask me. /images/smilies/bigokay.gif Kingdom for 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
