| May-27-06 | | Elixir of Life: Does anyone have advice on betting? I've been losing money steadily this few days. |
|
| May-27-06 | | capatal: <Elixer of Life>
Don't get off a winner - as they say in Vegas. |
|
| May-27-06 | | refutor: <chessgames bookie> any thoughts about making bets available on some of the high profile games? e.g. kramnik-aronian, etc.? |
|
| May-27-06 | | refutor: i didn't do so well this round (picked china, russia, bulgaria) |
|
| May-27-06 | | percyblakeney: My 1000 on Armenia covered the loss on draw in China-USA so a small plus for me today. |

|
| May-28-06 | | kuldeep: <Chessgames Bookie> Can we have some betting on the ladies' games as well? |
|
| May-28-06 | | Elixir of Life: I have a question: Is it generally more profitable to bet a lot on a few games or bet only a little on a lot of games? |
|
| May-28-06 | | percyblakeney: <Is it generally more profitable to bet a lot on a few games or bet only a little on a lot of games?> Betting a lot on favourites in a few games, but it must be the right favourites... |

| May-29-06 | | Milo: Why do people put so much money on ties in these team matches? They seem to be pretty rare (around ten percent or less...) |
|
| May-29-06 | | refutor: yeah but the later we go, the more common they will become (as the top teams play each other) |
