MoeFOH Posted January 30 Posted January 30 Rob & I discussed the idea of this the other day at lunch and thought it could be a good bit of fun... what with our sublime gambling skills and penchant for blithe optimism, we thought, "what could possibly go wrong?" 🤔 It didn't take more than a few seconds before arriving at the answer: a lot. That said, these things are often run with success and provide a great platform for a bit fun and excitement on a different level. The formula at the outset is obviously key. So, over to you, good folks... would something along the lines of the below be of interest? What are your experiences with other Punter's Clubs? Great fun or Horror show... something in between? Ideas for the format, platform, rules, and so forth?... Give us the good oil! Punter's Club - Basic concept Minimal upfront buy-in / weekly bet rotates to each member of the group to select / small, set stake each week (we are not playing for sheep stations ) Comment and discuss below. 1
BigGuns Posted January 30 Posted January 30 I have no idea what you’re talking about, but as it involves gambling, I’m in! 2 1

We put money in a pot, we take turns wagering the pot, we lose it all, we talk shit about the loser. Repeat At least that’s how we did it at the track 😁 1

But probably sports betting would be the most fun to watch and lose on. 1 1

That way you don't have to top up for a while...i.e. our losing streak can be much longer. 2
MickVanWinkle Posted January 31 Posted January 31 I’m usually good for throwing some money at something I don’t understand. Gotta play to win! 1
