Are you trying to get rid of me ?There is a forgotten, nay almost forbidden word which means more to me than any other. That word is England.

Its Beef, I'd really love to hear the resolution of this one! After Alonso qualified in pole and knowing how difficult overtaking is at Monaco, I was going to stake all my Piggpoints on him winning but then forgot to do it and was kicking myself when he won! But after reading this, I'm extremely relieved I didn't bother!itsbeef wrote:I think it was 44 PP for a 50PP bet for BONNIE
That means that it would be a 49PP pay out for A 50pp STAKE on the GRAND PRIX.
A loss on both AGAIN!!!!!0 -

I was exactly the same!
But thought better of slamming 5000+ points into the pot.
I fully understand the fact that its not your usual "bet" but the basic principle of place a bet, winning, then recieving less than you staked makes no sense what so ever.
I think someone stated that PB take 20% of the pot as their cut. That seems a massive amount considering the government only used to take 10% of normal betting takings.
Not sure how this can be resolved.........
