The $100 Derby Challenge

[Tom]

Anyone up for an informal contest on the Derby, that race only?

We each get a $100 mythical bankroll and can bet it in any way we want to - $100 show ticket, box supers, multiple win bets.....anything on the Derby only.

1st Prize - Bragging rights
2nd Prize - You get to play again next year
3rd Prize - A tip o' the hat to your handicapping skills

[rastajenk]

Virtual bets are the best kind. Swing for the fences:ThmbUp:

[jay68802]

sounds fun

[PowerUpPaynter]

put me down for $100 to SHOW on Patch - check is in the mail

When you make mind bets, all you can lose is your mind.

[whodoyoulike]

Sounds like fun.

Maybe after the race, each winning poster can re-post their post and results so we don't have to scour the thread.

You actually thought of this on your own?

[Zaf]

sounds like fun I'm in :headbanger:

[thaskalos]

Can we increase the mythical bankroll to $167? I need at least that much in order to have adequate coverage in that race.

[Tee]

Just make it $200 :)

DerbyWars contest this year?

A secondary challenge might be to post what type of wager Gus is doing with $167 before he posts his bet...:). If I know Gus it would be $2 Superfecta part- wheels...but that would not add up to $167 so maybe $1 Superfecta part- wheels...?

I will make 9 other $100 dollar mind bets and only lose 10% of my mind..
