Am I the only one that reads the GB9 website for updates and all relevant information on the tour?
If I had a quid for every question asked on the forum that could have been answered by reading a site that a lot of effort has gone into; I reckon I could cover my next instalment.
There it will tell you that the dress code is Shorts, T- Shirt and whatever style of cap you wish. lol

Running a book would be a good idea. I know I always enjoyed a bet on the EPT events even though everyone I backed seemed to have a bad day lol. Just my luck!

you could probably do the pro section, and have a book running for the more well known players of the challenge tour but alot of the challenge tour are unknown

I agree Ads, I think only the way would be to do the book on the pro tourmament only. The only bets placed would be lumped on bets that have insane value, so there is no way of knowing every player, and would expose the bookie too much to be worthwhile with challenge players. If match betting perhaps only selected ones where players are generally known. [ This message was edited by: mal_clarke on 2008-01-09 12:56 ]

i suppose there could be side bets made on 2 players when they are against each other. but again this would have to be between two people not involved in the match, and who know the player(s)

The best option for a book would be outright winner for each event.........the bookie would make a killing on that. [ This message was edited by: devil on 2008-01-09 13:35 ]

I'm soooooo skint and my car started making some unnerving noises!- so if anyone going from London area with car space available please let me know (I live half mile from staples corner where the M1 starts)
Also, I have a "family room" booked 2 miles from rileys on the Friday night. If someone would like to take the single bed let me know.
I dont have anything booked for the Saturday night yet so if anyone looking for a sharer let me know.
