  moronovich: What about a Pick 3 or DD for the next round(s) ?
Feb-19-20  morfishine: Yes Dear <moronovich>, I agree whole heartedly, we need more pick 3 and Pick two bets to enhance the betting and competition

  beatgiant: Any reason why the daily double round 9 closing time seems to be 15 hours later than that of the individual round 9 bets? I'm not even sure it closes before the games start.
Feb-20-20  mike1: second BEATGIANT post above

  beatgiant: Thanks, chessbookie, for fixing that.
Feb-21-20  morfishine: Whats the vig rate from the Loanshark?
Feb-21-20
Premium Chessgames Member
  beatgiant: <morfishine>
It's in the help page.

<1 chessbuck of interest daily for each 100 chessbucks you have on loan.>

So if you owe 199cb or less, it's 1cb per day; 200-299cb costs 2cb per day etc.

Feb-22-20  morfishine: Thanks <beatgiant>!
Feb-23-20  morfishine: Maybe we can get some Aeroflot bets going to cover us for the next 3 weeks when the candidates begin

  moronovich: Could we get some odds on the winner of the Candidates ?
Mar-13-20
Premium Chessgames Member
  moronovich: Less than 4 days to the Candidates....
Mar-19-20  morfishine: Can we get some pick threes or Daily Doubles? Otherwise, there's no way I can catch up lol

but I do have 300 CB riding on Alekseenko that pays 37,000

Wouldn't that be a hoot if he wins

  moronovich: Yes,a DD and/or Pick 3 would be much apreciated.
Mar-19-20  morfishine: <Bookie> Thanks for the Pick 4!

  Annie K.: These larger bets can only be offered when there's enough time for a bet to pick up a good pool, so look for them during rest days. :)
Mar-21-20  morfishine: Thanks <Annie K> much appreciated!
Mar-21-20  sydbarrett: If anyone is volunteering to keep this game from discontinuing, you are awesome in my book. I know it's a niche game with a very specific and small base, but I will miss not seeing it around.

I need a Hail Mary play to make an impact on the leaderboard.
