< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 46 OF 501 ·  Later Kibitzing> Jun-26-06    invincible: and 1000 on ivanchuck :( Jun-26-06    you vs yourself: <invicible: panomariov 1000 bucks> Good for you. <and 1000 on ivanchuck:(> Too bad. I bet on a draw in this game. Jun-26-06    invincible: <I bet on a draw> hehe nice Jun-26-06    cavaleiro: Payoffs from round 9??? Jun-26-06    cavaleiro: I need funds... Jun-27-06    invincible: What is anyones prediction on round 10 at the moment? nisipeanu-karjakin 1/2 shirov-areshchenko 1 ... Jun-27-06    WannaBe: Bye-bye chess bucks. =( Jun-27-06    percyblakeney: Two rounds with all draws already before the final round... Jun-27-06    TIMER: <WannaBe>, <harifan> Well, how come I dropped to a thousand yesterday then? One day is enough, now back to the top... Jun-27-06    WannaBe: <TIMER> You must had a small run of bad luck. =) I've already squandered all my chess bucks... =( Jun-27-06    Open Defence: <Wannabe> with your gambling tendencies I am surprised you lasted in Vegas hehehehehe Jun-27-06    WannaBe: <Open Defence> It's quite diff. when it's your own cash!! =) Jun-27-06    Kreifi: How leaders have so much networth? The leg just started. o.o Jun-27-06    suenteus po 147: <Kreifi> Because of high risk/high yield bets from things like the Daily Double. The odds are so skewed that if you put 500 or 1000 down and you're right you can make almost ten times back. But you have to be right :) Jun-28-06    percyblakeney: I've never won anything on high odds bets, I think it's hard to predict more than one game. The Daily Double has given odds of 2.67, 4.44 and 11.69, and if I had put 500 on the last one the odds would be down to 7 something. But it wasn't easy to guess that Pono would take his first win (with black) and then combine it with another correct prediction. If I made such bets I think I would soon be down to 0, but I have a feeling I still will be that soon... Jun-28-06    percyblakeney: Wow, surprising to see the huge betting on the Rublevsky/Shirov combination on the Daily Double today. The odds is much better on one single of the players winning their game... The only thing I'm certain about today is that Rublevsky isn't even interested in winning, he wants a draw to win the tournament and will take it at the first possible occasion. Jun-28-06    Chessgames Bookie: We have opened betting on the final round of the Dutch Championship. Check out the tournament page for current standings. Dutch Championship (2006) Jun-28-06    Sneaky: TIMER has over 13K now!! Man, if I was on the top of the list I would stop gambling and just sit on my stack and sneer at all the people underneath me. TIMER just won't slow down. Jun-29-06    offramp: Tom Waits. Jun-29-06    percyblakeney: If Tiviakov draws and Sokolov wins it will be a blitz tiebreak. In a "normal" tournament I'd be sure that Tiviakov would be happy to take a quick draw with black to ensure at least shared first. As it is now I've no idea what will happen and won't bet anything... Jun-29-06    Chessgames Bookie: Betting on the Norwegian Championship: Winner is now open. For those who want to bet on Carlsen, or lay the Carlsen bet, Norwegian Championship: Will Carlsen Win? is the proposition for you. Jun-29-06    chessmind: woohoe Tiviakov won. L'ami somehow blundered his queen, at first glance. winning (with a point instead of 1/2) against both timman and van wely deserves a title. Jun-29-06    chessmind: http://www.schaakbond.nl/live/tfdwe... is where the games can be followed live. (bummer they've all already ended.) Jun-29-06    chessmind: Will we be able to bet on any of these events? http://www.chess-calendar.nl/ for example on the XIV International Chess Festival / Emanuel Lasker memorial. Jun-29-06    percyblakeney: The Lasker Memorial seems to have been played already. Biel is the next thing I look forward too, not many weeks left and with among others Moro, Radjabov, and Carlsen: http://www.bielchessfestival.ch/gra...
