Gamebookers £20? Gone.
The almost impossble
Bodog $250 (having to bet $1250) challenge? Gone.
...but I'm insane enough to throw everything but the kitchen sink at trying to get a profit. There are no rules and I could sink myself to outrageous lows but I will bet on almost anything and everything if I think I can predict the outcome. This won't be restricted to novelty events or to any particular bookie.
First bet? Trying to predict what the opening weekend totals of films will be....in this case
The Da Vinci Code in the UK. Very popular with some of the offshore books in trying to predict the US box office weekend numbers (usually Thursday nights/Friday monnings that the odds are released) but it's very rare that there'll be odds for films opening in the UK (or even Germany like
Intertops do and bizarrely enough even Paddy's have copied them. Good luck with that if you're having a go....I'm not that insane to try and predict the German box office!
).

I've put £20 on the 5/1 shot between £7,000,001 and £9 million.....just for the fook of it. Going along with the opinion of others is a tricky thing but the guy who runs the website is usually pretty solid in what the numbers will end up as.
