Default Re: African Nations Cup 2008 - Outright

Ok I layed off my Cameroon outright bet so I'm now guaranteed +14 pts if Cameroon win the final and +10 pts if Egypt win it. I didn't make things exactly equal because I still feel as if Cameroon can lift the trophy, and of course with them being my initial selection, I'd better keep some faith.


The Eto'o top goalscorer bet is a bit more complicated. I layed him off to guarantee me +10 if if wasn't outright or joint top scorer. I'll gain +16 if he does end outright on his own.

Then with the complicated DH rules I'd be +7pts if he shared the outright with one other person and just +5pts if 3 people shared top spot.

So the worst result for me would be for Hosni, Zaki and Eto'o all the be joint top on say 5 or 6 goals each.

Still it's pleasing to go into the final knowing that I can't possibly lose anything and can only gain some profit
