With the WSOP starting next week, virtual reality poker room PKR are one of the first to open betting markets on the series. They have a number of interesting bets including number of runners, Main Event final table bets and odds on whether key players will or won't win a bracelet

actually betting on poker seems to offer lots of value...especially great strategy is to lay the favorite (back the underdog)- say if one guy holds a 3/1 chip lead against another that doesn't really mean that he is 3 times better player or that his odds should be ~1.30 mark...dunno maybe will fire a bet or two

Every time I read or hear the word 'bet',.... I think of an old episide of The Flintstones where Fred Flintstone has a really bad gambling problem.....

Posted by Macubaas: I think this could also be a pretty good idea for the bankrollmob admin for the bets section of the site
We can't do that with our current beta'ish betting system, it needs a "score" to be inputted as well, so it would work for football, tennis and such kind of 1on1 or team vs team games.

hey admin just a though for the future: would it be possible to have a bet on something like a HU match between two BRM'ers...say the final match in another BRM HU Championship...

Soccer betting here is more than enough. Let them establish that at first and then start asking for more. Did we have any bets on Champions League btw? Never took the time to check if there were any on

lol... That's right,....it was that cocky little newspaper boy. I couldn't quite remember,....it's been nearly 40 years since I've seen it....
...if I remember correctly,...he was just kickin' Fred's ass at marbles, and no matter what Fred did, he just couldn't beat the kid....and kept getting further and further in the hole....
