Who"s priced me at 100/1??  I purposefully performed appallingly in all previous APAT events so I"d be a 200/1 shot for this event.

I think it was worked out on the basis that even a dart thrown by a small child might at some point hit the middle of the board.  :D

While, statistically speaking, "the wall" does have many pin holes, the price also factors in a very decent performance at the 210 runner APAT UK event at Aspers in December 2006.

I think I see a little value is that list.  :-\
(Edit: I have now had my £10 EW on the 150/1 shot)

But, it certainly isn"t me at 80/1!!!  :o

A little competition for you (as usual, 1st prize will
be a a couple beers on Des!)...

My e/w selection is hidden in this post. He"s cashed
3 times in Vegas tournaments, one of them was the
Bellagio Cup in 2006. He mostly plays cash
Omaha online nowadays (according to his blog).
You know who it is yet?

Was it that easy? It took me ten times longer to come up with it, than you took to work it out! Assuming you are right.

I guess there"s no point in me looking for work writing cryptic quizzes.  :"(

Ahhhh, I"ve just had a lightbulb moment!!! You have no idea who it is have you? That was just a clever attempt to be able to claim to be the first to work it out and avoid anyone else claiming free beer!

Nice try Des, but you"ve been rumbled.

Right, I"ve picked myself up of the floor and double checked that there is not two people entered with my name.  66/1.  Is that for real ?

Has Blue Square been using those trained chimpanzees to set the odds again ?

Wait til Daniel sees that, boy will he laugh.
