My feedback on Staker is that it"s great fun and has real potential. I think that if you stake a person in an event and they don"t take part then that stake should be classed as a non runner so a neutral outcome to staker. It"s difficult to know who is taking part in events and you can "lose" 10k without even having a run for your money. It"s only a bit of fun I know that and administering that is almost impossible so I think I"ve changed my mind before getting to the end of my post. 😀

I agree with this, non runner scores 0 would make the game a lot more attractive (and i am enjoying it a lot as it is, so no complaints)

As to whether the admin is feasible, don"t know

[Scousebill]

On events of this size the admin would be horrendous trying to see if somebody ran or not.... Colossus, Millionaire Maker, Main Event - imagine having to check all Stakers selections to see if they ran or not, nevermind finished in the cash..

Yes agree great fun.. Would also like to see if the profit margin for those who have staked most.
Say you stake a couple of tournaments and lose only a small percentage of stake compared to those who have staked every event.
Wonder if someone who is sitting in top 10 come near end of series has a profit but only stakes a couple of events doesn"t bother to stake anymore?
