I have decided to remove from the Gambling Game The New Me, as he has not bet the past two months. Hollywood Spike Jenkins, Secret Agent, and MrZsasz you did not bet on every match as stated in the rules, therefore I cannot accept your bets as it wouldn't be fair to the rest of the gamblers. As for everyone else that did not even attempt to bet, I will remove you from the game if you do not place bets for the next PPV, Backlash. With that said, most did not do as well as last month, as nearly everyone was banking on Mysterio and Jericho to win, and many for Jazz as well. No one that played lost money though, everyone made at least some profit.

[Guest Kotzenjunge]

I thought I took a massive hit. Looks like I actually gained $100.

[Ultimo Dugas 0]

Only $50. You got a lot of company around the top now.

[Guest Kotzenjunge]

Oh, for some reason I wanted to think I was at $2200 to start off.

 

Patrick gaining only $50 = WWE doesn't know who's supposed to win matches.

[Guest Space_Cowboy]

Equal 7th and a $600 profit, not too shabby. Good thing i didn't trust the WWE to do the right thing and put Jericho over, i almost bet a big amount on Jericho, but luckily i decided to only bet a small amount.

[Guest Sandman9000]

$700 profit.

 

Oh yeah.

[Guest MarvinisaLunatic]

I made 200 bucks.

 

HHH, Lesnar and HBK. I bombed everything else, but those were some of my big money wagers.

[Guest HollywoodSpikeJenkins]

I had no money left to make the bets...

[Ultimo Dugas 0]

You bet $500 on Brock, you had enough money to spare $50 for the matches you didn't bet on.

[Guest HollywoodSpikeJenkins]

You bet $500 on Brock, you had enough money to spare $50 for the matches you didn't bet on.

Why does it matter how much I put down on someone?

[Guest NaturalBornThriller4:20]

2nd Place!

 

WOOOOOOOOOO!

[Guest The Tino Standard]

$700 profit from last night. I'm now up $1100 in two months of playing. Giddy up.

 

Also, one thing I would suggest: When posting the gambling results leaderboard, I would put each guy's old total in parentheses next to the new total, that way we can see how everybody fared with that show.

[Guest creativename]

Good thing i didn't trust the WWE to do the right thing and put Jericho over, i almost bet a big amount on Jericho, but luckily i decided to only bet a small amount.

I actually did the opposite--I bet more on Jericho than I was going to, because he's my favorite of all time. I bet $50 on Booker too, even though I knew HHH was probably winning.

You know, that's a good idea, but the more work Ultimo has to do, the more likely he is to eventually say "fuck this shit." Hopefully somone else would pick up the torch is that happened though, much like Ultimo himself did...ah, the Circle of Life...

[Ultimo Dugas 0]

It matters because you weren't in a situation where you couldn't bet at least $50 on every match. You could have bet on the other matches.

[Ultimo Dugas 0]

I guess I could post the old totals if you want, I mean, they are in the orginal gambling thread.

[TheOriginalOrangeGoblin 0]

I went up 450.

 

Borck & Hogan saved as I messed up nearly everything else except for HHH.

[Guest ViciousFish]

I actually went up 100 bucks and halfway through the PPV I though I was fucked. Then I found out I bet on HHH and Team Angle. Thank God for knowing HHH wouldn't do the job.

[Guest Kotzenjunge]

Yes, you can all feel as if you're coming close to the lead THIS time, but I'll be back up to my usual performance at Backlash. You'll see.
