We are going to change a few things this week, with a different type of bet, &, more importantly, prizes to be won.

This Comp will run all this week, Monday to Sunday.

Prizes?

1st place will get Free Entry into the £33 entry Predator Main Event on Wednesday of next week, 13th March.

2nd place will get Free Entry into the £11 entry Mini Major on Sunday 17th March.

3rd place will get Free Entry into the £5.50 Mini Predator on Wednesday of next week, 13th March.

In the event of a dead-heat, we'll have a tie-breaker.

    We are also going to change the types of bet you can select, to try & make for a closer competition, & make it easier to enter. This may change day to day, but for today, you can ONLY select one of three bets on our featured match, which is Sheffield Wednesday v Sheffield United.


    Home @ 5/2

    Away @ 23/20

    Draw @ 9/4


    If this proves unpopular or impractical, don't worry, we can change it as we go along this week.

    Closing time for entries today is 7.15pm please

    For those with long memories, current Wednesday manager Steve Bruce started his Managerial career across town at United over 30 years ago;

    He's maybe aged a little since then, haven't we all?

    So just under £50 of prizes, but we need more entries please.

    We got as many as 30 last week, but if we want prizes every week, we really need at least 50 regular entries. More & bigger prizes could be offered if we got 100 entries, but lets see how we go.

    There will also be a one off Cheltenham Comp next week, also with prizes, in addition to the all-week long daily betting Comp which is mainly football.

    So please tell your mates over on Facebook or whatever, to join us. More entries = more prizes.

    Big thanks to @Sky_James for donating prizes on behalf of Sky Poker.

    The rule change makes sense . Though why not allow any bet up to 2/1 or with a 3/1 to 6/1 spread. Could players completely out of the comp by Friday.

    Anyway snap call.

    Home win

    Very happy to consider suggestions, I'll start a new thread to discuss it so this one does not go off track.
