Default PROC betting challenge

A few of us start off with, lets say, 100pts.

Focus on soccer until the end of the season but maybe throw in other sports if you want. Have to make at least two bets a week, last bet is Champions League final. Post what bookie you got the odds and MBS count for your single bets.

We all post up our own balances each week.

E.g.

Newcastle win 5pts @2/1
Ba anytime scorer 5pts @ 15/8
Sunderland +2 win 4pts @evs

All PP.


Once you hit 0 you're out.



Other or more rules welcome before we agree on it.

At least two bets a week.
No limits to your bets as long as you stay in your budget.
Minimum 1pt per bet
Post odds and bookie and MBS count only if you state it in advance
Keep track of your account here
For me I'll do mostly soccer but I suppose any sport
If you hit 0pts you're out

Place at least two bets before midnight Sunday

Happy punting

here's my first two -
