For this bet "Best odds guaranteed" is active, because the odds may chance, but it will always be in your favor.
3. Who will win The Awakening?:
For this bet we introduce a new feature called "Each Way". Each Way or EW for short means that you place 2 bets, a win bet and a place bet. For the win part of the bet to give a return, the selection must win, or finish first, in the event. For the place part of the bet to give a return, the selection must either win or finish in one of the predetermined 'places' for the event, such as in first "place" or second "place". The odds paid on the place part of the bet are usually a fraction (commonly 1⁄2, 1⁄3, 1⁄4 or 1⁄5) of the win odds.
For example:
50 gold each-way on a player 'to win the event' at 6.0 and 1⁄3 the odds a place 1 or 2 would cost 100 gold.
The way to calculate this: stake x (odd-1 / EW term) + stake; or check http://www.free-bet-calculator.co.uk/
In this winner bet the EW terms will be 3 places with 1/3 odds.
_Jidba - 2.50 (+415)
L_Clan_True_ - 2.50 (-175)
Praxes - 4.50 (-100)
KGB_Hecto12 - 5.00 (-0)

Anyone else - 18.00 (-0)
The way to participate is to comment below with you predictions, remember your starting gold is 500, with a bet limit of 100 gold per bet. For a EW bet the limit is 50 gold, e.g.
The bets as stated above will result in a stake of 120 gold, if you want to bet an EW, you'll have to type it after your stake, like this: "Winner: RiuT - 50 gold EW", which will result in a stake of 170 gold.
The deadline to enter your bets will be tomorrow Sunday February 1st before the first game starts (14:00 GMT).

For example:
50 gold each-way on a player 'to win the event' at 6.0 and 1⁄3 the odds a place 1 or 2 would cost 100 gold.
- Returns for the win part of the bet would be (50 × 6.0) = 300
- Returns for the place part of the bet would be (50 × (5/3x1) + 50) = 133
- If the player 'won the event' the total returns would be 300 + 133 = 433 and if the player was beaten in the final the returns would be 100.
- If the player does not reach the final the wager would be lost.
The way to calculate this: stake x (odd-1 / EW term) + stake; or check http://www.free-bet-calculator.co.uk/
In this winner bet the EW terms will be 3 places with 1/3 odds.
