    Melbourne Cup Sweep

    OK....so everyone gets a chance. Here is the TWF Melbourne Cup Sweep.

    Limit is 24 entries and its 1,000 points per entry. As soon as we get the 24 entries the book will be closed off.

    Just place your bet for 1,000.....yes...1,000 and the night prior to the cup we will draw the 24 names and horses.

    Prizes will be

    1st 15,000 points
    2nd 5,000 points
    3rd 3,000 points
    last 1,000 points


    Wel will do an odds book on the cup as well as soon as the field is posted sometime this weekend

    Chuck Norris has the greatest Poker-Face of all time. He won the 1983 World Series of Poker, despite holding only a Joker, a Get out of Jail Free Monopoly card, a 2 of clubs, 7 of spades and a green #4 card from the game Uno.

    Count me in
    Roll out the donkey

    To make the cranky Bookie even crankier I dare someone who doesn't want to participate in the sweep to put v1000 on "Nope". By rights at quoted odds of 100/1 on a sure thing you'd be in for a tidy little earn

    The kind and generous bookie invites everyone to put v1000 on the 100/1 shot

    Yah stuffed it up JK, you can't go for both involvement and "Nope", that's ensured that your "Nope" is invalid as you have also asked to be in the draw

    The betting headline doesn't actually specify what "Nope" refers to.....although common sense does dictate what vBookie is meaning! I've got so used to hearing "Nope" (or versions thereof) that I was drawn to it like a moth to a flame!!!
