Weighted AFL tipping

[pasag]

We discussed this in the AFL thread a while back.

Basically you put in your tips like regular but your results are based on the odds for the match so let's take Geelong ($1.26) vs Essendon ($3.75) first round,

if you tip Geelong and they get up you get 1.26 points, if you tip Essendon and they get up you get 3.75 points.

So who's in?

[morgieb]

Sounds awesome. I'm in.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Odds at the first bounce, I assume?

 

[irfan]

Sounds great, in.

Odds just before bouncedown to account for late withdrawals/injuries on the eve of the match

Odds at the first bounce, I assume?

Been thinking about it, prob best to just post all the odds on Thursday night and go by those, but open to suggestions.

Wish we'd used this idea for the Super 14 tipping competition TBH, bit late now I suppose - would certainly have promoted the tipping of less fancied sides with more points on the line for doing so correctly.

I'll have a bash. Thursday might be a bit tight deadline wise for some tho? Usually game on Fridays isn't there?

Won't bother me, btw, having no life and that...

Maybe we'll make it you're free tip earlier and will generally know the approximate odds based on bet365, sportsbet.com.au etc but the final odds will be Thursday night's after the teams are released.

I think I might try out a tactic and tip the underdog in every game for the whole season and see how it goes. Could really pay off or bomb, depending on how it all plays out early in the season I reckon.

Good luck with those Richmond tips.

Demons would need to win, say, 6 games to be profitable imo.
