1. Place single bets with 1.50 odds or higher on any sport.

Just to make it clear. I just want to know if parlay (combo) bets are counted?

10. Must have 10 winning bets to qualify for the prize above.

Do casino bets count? Or only sports bets?

No. Only single bets are allowed here.

As the title says, sports betting contest only. It can be any sport.

Everything is clear to me! Expect my participation in this contest. Thank you.

Expect my participation in this contest.

Great to see you. I expected a few more users to get in lol. If we don't get enough participants, we are likely to pause the contest after a few rounds.

I have only a few single bets that won the rest of them lost, unfortunately it was beyond our prediction. Lol

If for example I don't win 10 single bets is that not eligible? say I only win 8 single bets is it necessary to post the winning bet id?

Sorry for the confusion again.

If we look at rule number 10 it means a minimum of 10 bets won, if you don't have it then you don't meet the contest requirements

10. Must have 10 winning bets to qualify for the prize above.

Additionally, the 10 winning bets must have odds of at least 1.5 or higher. So if you already have 10 sports betting wins but the odds are below 1.5 then that also does not meet the contest requirements

1. Place single bets with 1.50 odds or higher on any sport.

However, it seems like you are already quite an expert in sports betting, don't rush and I'm sure you will get those 10 wins. If you have a good guess, let me know. lol

Yes now I understand, I've done more than 10 single bets but that's still a lot of losing, so to chase 10 winning bets is still a little difficult.

Little Mouse, a little advice for the next contest, whoever bets the most he will win first place.

However, it seems like you are already quite an expert in sports betting, don't rush and I'm sure you will get those 10 wins. If you have a good guess, let me know. lol

Please also let me know if there is a good guess. Lol
A little disappointed also in the French League match, PSG was ahead but had to concede at the end and the score became 1-1 with LOSC, yes what else can I do, the bet lost.

I am assuming that winners nr 1-5 winners are not for winning highest total odds or something like that? But for the people who won most money total from those single bets they participated with?

Because is i want to be tactical, latter would mean that gambling with 3$ bets wouldn't most likely bring us near top prices, as one wealthy player could just move to the top with few high roller $1000+ bets. So if rich high rollers are most likely rewarded, it would change my tactic. I just wanted to make sure that if this is the case?

[BABY SHOES]

I placed a $3 bet in TRX and won 2 single bets, but for some reason I checked just now the bet became $2.93 is it because of the influence of the TRX price dropping?

If so then this is not included in the minimum requirement of $3 bet, right?

Even though it is prepared for the contest and will be posted at the end.

Little Mouse, does it meet the requirements? Because at the beginning of the bet I placed a $3 bet in the form of TRX.

It's the number of winning bets. Say you win 20 bets worth $3 each while some other have won 19 bets with $6 each. You are the winner.

Little Mouse, does it meet the requirements? Because at the beginning of the bet I placed a $3 bet in the form of TRX.

Yes. You can submit them. We can check the price at the time of bet placed. So no worries.

@Littlemouse could you interpret this rule here :"Must have 10 winning bets to qualify for the prize above."

Do we have to submit a minimum of 10 winning bets here or on our accounts a minimum of 10 winning slips should be on our accounts?

Number of most winning bets submitted in the thread. The more number of bets you win, higher the chances to win the prize. Must submit minimum 10 winning bets here.

[Woodie]

@Little Mouse was looking at some of @BigCoin95 bets and wanted to ask if we can make duplicate bets ?? If say I bet on Real Madrid to win at 1.7 odds and later price drops to 1.54 odds and take both..will these count as 2 bets towards the 10 betslips..?

Must post betslip within 48 hours after settling

Wonder what happens if you post after the 48hrs, does a player get penalized for this??

[Wind_FURY]

I wanted to join the contest, but the fees are so high that I would be spending more than the amount I was planning to bet. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I want to be in the next round.

Little Mouse, if the fees are still high during the next round, would it be OK/possible if I make a request to have my Shuffle account credited for $50.00 and have my campaign payment reduced by that amount?

Plus wouldn't it be better for the contest if the users post their bet slips only after they have already made ten winning bets? It wouldn't make a difference and I know I'm nitpicking. Haha. But it would make the thread look cleaner in my opinion.

1. Since I didn't put such rules, I will allow duplicate bet for this round but that's a valid concern and I'll make sure to deny any such bets in the future round.
If you don't post within 48 hours of settle, that won't be considered as valid entry.

Why don't you use any altcoin? If you don't use them at all, I can send you the fund directly to your shuffle deposit address.
Posting after 10 winning betslips? I think posting the progress helps others to see the necessary amount of bets to chase.

Hey LM, what’s the minimum number of participants is required for this contest to continue? Also maybe you should clarify and emphasize on the OP that the contest is all about the highest winning bet quantity because I honestly thought that this is a highest odds contest at first glance without reading on the discussion below.

I already place my 20 qualifying bet hoping to win at least 10 bets to secure a place on the contest.

My bad if it didn't sound like highest winning bet quantity. If we can 10+ participants, we will continue this for few months.
Otherwise, after a few rounds, we will consider pausing the contest.

[mirakal]

I'm reading..... and I'm quite interested with this type of contest.

Good thing LM put this in the gambling discussion board as I rarely visit the games and rounds section. I haven't started placing a bet yet, I'm still waiting for my btc to credit to my account then I'll send it to my shuffle account, let's see if I will have a Merry Christmas here.

Does that mean we can also make multiple entries from a single match while betting on different markets (handicap, totals, match winner, etc.) as long as it's within the minimum odds?

I guess I have to switch my strategy if that's the case.

It's a loophole BigCoin95 used. Since we had no such rules, I will allow this time but from the next round, I may not allow this.

Why don't you use any altcoin?

I have not owned an altcoin since I believe 2020. But if the fees remain very high, I might be forced to use Litecoin temporarily. It's purpose and utility is starting to be truly noticed by the people like me who rejected it. Hahaha.

If you don't use them at all, I can send you the fund directly to your shuffle deposit address.

My Shuffle deposit address? Not my Shuffle deposit account?
