Twist my arm. I have nothing else to do with my sats on there. I am going to allocate 2k sats as defined by this nice chart.
reply
This means I wager sats on each of them for a definite win?
reply
No, it's still only an expected win. In a perimutual betting pool there are no guarantees, because the odds are not fixed.
Technically, just betting on any one driver has a positive expected return, but this approach balances out the downside risks.
reply
Thanks. I'm gonna allocate exactly the same as your chart.
reply
You left a couple guys off here so I threw 1 sat at each of them as well for fun.
reply
Throwing sats away by not following the method. Those two guys are not in the competition.
reply
Haha. Uh oh. Two sats lost forever.
reply
There are two drivers who were left off. If either of them win, it might be a push and you'll get your sats back.
