Not really sure what this is all about???

Just looked on Centrebet & they offer betting on it if anyone can shed some light please do so.

They have PUSA, Leo @$1.70 to take out Men's Championship Winner

Looks like it's the World Sauna Championships

. More info here :-

It's unbelievable what you can bet on these days. I saw some markets on Pinnacle a few weeks back for some Pie-eating contest ??

And the Chess markets they cover over there are really strange too. No world championship markets or anything like that just some poxy American club matches involving players no-one has ever heard of outside of the USA. Shouldn't knock it though. There was a guy on here many years ago now who used to clean up on the Danish Backgammon. Stereoman's the guy for specialist markets I'm sure he'll come along and give us the low down on the Sauna form.

maj69er · 02-08-2006, 23:35

This will be a olympic sport soon LOL

I found some background info from BBC News Saturday, 2 August, 2003,

Timo Kaukonen took the world title, beating his closest rival, three-time champion Leo Pusa.
Kaukonen endured the heat for 16 minutes and 15 seconds, before getting out of the sauna.

you can back Kaukonen @$2.00 with centrebet. Should be HOT! Competition to take out the title

Heres how it works:

Every competitor takes part in the competition at their own risk. The Sauna temperature to fight against is 110ºC, with half a liter of water thrown on the stove every 30 seconds to increase the steaming heat effect. Competitors have to sit in the Sauna with buttocks and thighs on the seat. Posture must be erect; elbows must stay on the knees and arms have to be in an upright position. Touching skin with hands or disturbing the other competitors is strictly forbidden. The competitor will have to leave the Sauna without outside help, otherwise the he/she will be disqualified. The last person to get out of the Sauna will be the World Sauna Champion.

Very Strict rules.

iceman79 · 03-08-2006, 06:18

iceman79 · 03-08-2006, 06:19

I might look into that I may even have a go competing, now that is a potential Olympic sport.

jeffers · 03-08-2006, 06:20

How about Olympic post-boosting? You're favourite already

iceman79 · 03-08-2006, 06:24
