I don't really care about the pros, and I'm not really sure there is a lot of play there. It would be nice to be able to bet your Friday winnings on the Saturday games though. I've missed 3 consecutive Saturday's of betting. Kind of takes me out of it a bit. But I'm having fun with what I can bet, I'm VERY grateful that we even have vBookie at all!

I do believe that if you make a request for a specific game, jk will put it on there. You just have to ask well enough ahead of time, and then maybe bug him about it again to make sure he didn't forget. I get the feeling that setting up these bets and keeping everything moderated is a bit more work than we see.

Up to now, I give everything a http://www.soonerfans.com/forums/images/icons/icon14.gif, but I do hope that something somehow can be worked out so that those of us who bet on the Friday game still get a shot at the main draw (the Saturday games) with our winnings.

My kids future is to important for me to gamble it away.

I'm hanging on to it for investing purposes.

Props to JK for moderating this forum.

I hope we generated at least a couple of ideas for him.

Anyway...

i wouldn't say it's awful, cause it's a lot better than not having any vBookie.

that being said, i'd like to see more games listed per week - including NFL. also, i like the proposition bets and would like to see more of those.

i'd like to see other sports too, especially boxing and mma:



HBO, Oct 07
NIKOLAY VALUEV -500 o10½+135
MONTE BARRETT +400 u10½-155

someone else is definitely going to have to help then. i had more time last year so i was able to put more events up. it normally takes around 3 minutes per game to setup and pay it off (sometimes more on a speculation bet). last year i had an extra hour and a half to promptly get everything taken care of, this year, that consecutive time non-midnight pacific time has eluded me. that doesn't even include waiting for the last game on saturday night to end to pay off the bets.

as for the nfl, i spent well over an hour for a full slate of NFL games last year and it received 6 bets.

I figured JK was gonna say that.

I have no idea how difficult it is to set those games up.

Spek to Norman Pride .

if we could still bet spek, i'd be in the red. i'm having an abysmal year. :(

i'm changing my karma though. i picked the teams i thought would actually cover, and then went against them in the current rounds. smooooove GO MTWhatever.

i just liked spek better because it could replenish itself if you're awesome enough.

in boxing-is-fixed related news, valuev stops barrett in the 11th round.

i would've lost my vAss on the under in this fight.
