Career The Gambling Man


BatiGoal
 Share

Recommended Posts

Last career of FMM19, so let's make it an extra wacky one 🤪 

I'm going to, attempting to, recap the thoughts that flew through my mind and the actions that followed. Let's see if you're able to keep up.. Scrolling transfer pages-> Michael Gamble-> Odd name, like it tho-> 🤔 could be a career, no?-> Gamble's a free agent-> No club no money-> Ahhh, got it-> Gamble's going to gamble-> Googling biggest casino in UK-> Found: Aspers Casino (East London)-> Finding East London clubs accepting free agents-> Got one: Millwall-> Gamble goes to ATM to withdraw his last £100-> Hitchhikes to casino to try his luck-> New club: Millwall

Me: I'll play the challenge - the challenge is to survive 1 season with this money-lovin' Gambling Man, and I'm going to need your help. It's simple, he's got £100 on him. He wins money, great, he'll complete the season. We win. He losses money, game over! We lose. He can place one bet at the time only! See info below. The number that 'falls' is simply the minute he scores his goal in. I'll make sure he scores no more than once per game so we'll have just one number to work with per bet 😉 

You: well, you place the bets. Simply post them in this thread and I'll play every match as if it were bets, until Gamble either completes a full season or.. until he runs out of money.

Example: You post £10 on Red, I'll play until Gamble scores, say 33rd min. - > Black, we lose £10. Or you post £20 on Diamond, Gamble scores in 89th min. - > we win £100.

This could potentially be over real quick, after a single match 😂 Anyways, if you have no clue what's going on, just ask questions or wait till someone else posts a bet. If no bets, I'll place bets myself and after a couple updates I'm sure you'll get the gist.

I’ll stick my neck out and potentially get what I’m supposed to do all wrong by having the first bet.

Nice and simple to start.

£10 on black.

and as @samhardy will testify that’s the biggest bet I have ever had!

Excellent start! I’ll let a few others get involved before throwing down my next bet :) 

Are you sure you’ve worked out the winnings correctly though?

I did Wiki the 'odds' thing to make sure and as I understand 2 to 1 means £2 profit for the 1 we bet, so £10 bet means double in profit (£20), so we'd receive £30? 

Pls correct me if I'm wrong, it's an easy fix 👍 I'm clearly not a gambling man myself 😂 

Thanks for the bets everyone. Much appreciated, will update shortly. 

Pending bets:

  1. Mr Tree: £20 on Diamond
  2. Kanegan: £20 on Even
  3. Lord Danish: £20 on Odd
  4. smoggy90: £20 on Red

No, If you bet £10, then you receive £20 ;)

Yes plus his stake I think. Say you bet £10 at 2/1 and it comes up you’d win £20 plus you’d get your stake back making it £30. I think anyway.

Yes, £10 on 2/1 returns £30 as you get the stake back as well.
