Re: VBookie Weekly Challenge March 24-30

Yeah it is dude thats the challenge. Unless you create 50 or so bets the next few days and somebody gets them all right I'm probably winning the 5000.

Re: VBookie Weekly Challenge March 24-30

I'm not telling you how to run anything. We all were able to bet on multiple scenario's per game, I did, and right now I'm 6 bets in the lead. Most bets won is the condition for winning the challenge.

I don't know what you are all butt hurt over.

Re: VBookie Weekly Challenge March 24-30

Not butt hurt just telling you like it is. You are trying to get over on what I am trying to do with vbookie and I will not allow it. It would be one thing if other people were taking the approach you were, but were not. Keep it up and you will automatically be removed from the challenge

Re: VBookie Weekly Challenge March 24-30

Then I'm going to the admins with this.

On each bet it said "You may bet more than once on this Event." With more than once in bold.

And you are saying you won't pay the winner because he bet more than once.

Re: VBookie Weekly Challenge March 24-30

Go to the admins I dont care you are trying to get over on the challenge by betting on all 6 bets with an easy 3 wins no matter what. This involves no skill nor knowing how to choose winners.

Math, money management, and taking advantage of a situation are just as important as knowing the winner in sports betting. If a Vegas bookie makes a mistake they cant just say "I don't feel like paying you". They pay up and try not to make that mistake in the future.

I was never trying to "get over" on the challenge, I simply tried to "win" the challenge you set forth. I bet 100% in accordance with the rules put in place from the start and right now I have the best shot at winning the terms of the challenge. And once again I was given no advantage over anybody else.

Re: VBookie Weekly Challenge March 24-30

Again simply betting on every outcome to win 50% is lame and will not win the challenge

Re: VBookie Weekly Challenge March 24-30

Well this ceases to be any sort of bookie anymore. I got removed from the challenge because Hustlin thinks my betting strategy is "lame".

Also interesting that since I was removed by Hustlin himself, he is now in first place to win the 5K.

Your strategy is pretty lame bet on all 6 outcomes just to win 3. Yeah I leave the bet more than once on their for those of us that want to either take the over or under, plus spread or money line. Rather than trying to cheese their way into 3 easy wins

Re: VBookie Weekly Challenge March 24-30

I don't think you realize how many fundamental betting and bookie rules you've broken so far. You are trying to run this thing by your opinion and what you think is "lame".

The fact is I followed the rules 100%. If you don't like the outcome then next time you should put more rules in place. Thats how it works in the real betting world.

Re: VBookie Weekly Challenge March 24-30

I'm with hustlin on this one, you deserve to be removed from the challenge. He didn't say not to bet on every possible outcome because he figured everyone was mature/smart enough to not try and take advantage of it. the contest is for fun, vcash isn't even worth anything. This is like cheating a system to earn posts on a forum, you gain nothing out of it.


And going to the admins is going to do nothing, do you really think they care about a vcash issue when there are still tons of problems with the merger?

And we are on a privately owned forum, not in the real betting world. If you don't like the rules in the Hustlin's vbookie then just leave, don't be a ***** and whine because you didn't win useless vcash LOL

Re: VBookie Weekly Challenge March 24-30

I bet you also think that buying all the possible lottery ticket combinations to win a multi million dollar jackpot when the price to purchase all the tickets is less than the jackpot is "lame".

You don't see the lottery gaming commission throwing a fit and taking away the winnings when people do that.
