P6 Maths Lesson.

Any betting on racing is still the safest way of gambling doesnt matter which way u look into it why hasnt any casino worldwide not opened a racetrack its way easier for them 2 ripp off the people in the casinos where the variables are controlled by the operater as oppose 2 racing where the variables r not controlled by a single person the new pick 6 will make punters study form so much more which should benefit him when playing other bets ie win place bets

Rockspider, I find sports betting much safer than horses, agree about casino's though.

Well done, Thor. Personally I have won many P6 when the 1O CENT unit was alive and collected in a few instances over R5O,OOO-- with my outlay always less than R1OOO---.
I must hasten to add that including COUPLINGS AND SCRATCHINGS DEFINITELY DID HELP THE SITUATION AS FOR EXAMPLE IF GOING INTO THE LAST LEG, THE FAVORITE WON OR A COUPLING THEN YOU DOUBLED TO 2O% OR 4O%.X(

It has worked for me in my experiences and I am tired of chanting the same over and over.

WYSIWYG. 10c is 10% of R1 no matter how you look at it.

If everybody plays the same amount the pool remains the same but everyone theoretically has 10 times more chance of winning therefore 10 times more winning tickets then payouts 10 times less. Theoretically therefore absolutely no difference between between a 10c P6 and a 10% of a R1 P6.

Thats so sherk n sportbetting the variables r just about the same as in racing mind u with criket in india and pakistan rocked by all the spotfixing i would stay away from that

No betting tax, no teams having "educational matches" and other than Cricket in Pakistan all teams trying to win every match.

Well, its very clear mikesack is the only actual thinker here

There is a difference. Why dont you try and read the difference above.

Maybe its time for mr v moodley 2 dust of the superfecta lol

Why not run two pools the 1 rand and the 10 cent pool maybe even a 1 cent pool. Like the Casino I can choose which suits me best.

Yes Thor I TRIED to read ur post but again U come with a sarcastic reply (see bold), which is the lowest form of wit.

My suggestion is that U should approach a Mathematician to clarify what U clearly do not understand.
