Yeah relatively low bets on hardware. Big bets on software

I wanted to out bet oliist this week, and he went and bet the max. I could have bet 13k, but decided I should save some for next week.

I don't know why Zexen bet so much, but overall it seems like a lot of software titles were predicted far on the low side. I'm expecting to make a lot of VG$ this week and I want to break the record of ~3500.

 

 Hehe, so 15k is max u cant bet more.

Btw my 5k was a record for me aswell :)



 

Hardware for the 9th of May is disappointing.

As a small announcement, if the NA software doesn't get updated by this evening (my time) then I will pay out the results anyway to make sure people have money they can bet tomorrow.

A bet of 90 vg$ for me would be a waste of time :p

 



I must surely be betting on the wrong horses. With an accuracy of 70% I only made 32 $

top 5 in each category, so yay for me

Had I bet $5 on each hardware, since all I did was lose there, I could have taken first in overall winnings too.

I haven't run the numbers yet, but I should jump up to #5 for Winnings Ratio.

Damn, non-gravity, how dare you have better accuracy than me. If I had a bettyer accuracy, the top 5 would have been made of the same 5 persons for every category. Oh, well.

Why do I always have to have a bet that screws all up, I would have made much more money, but I always have to slip somewhere. Anyway, I won almost 1K, it's good, and I'm closer to passing Tbone in winnings

Next week will be nasty...how could I bet 180K on the DS...I'm so stupid
