     I couldn't have followed that meter with a laser. That was ridiculous.

    PUHOLINO:
    Potentially 500.000 credits in entry fees with a reasonable chance of ZERO payout,

    Don't know of we're allowed to make book on here ?  

    Checked 'guidelines' and can't find any reference against betting between ourselves (pls correct or delete this post if I'm in error Pizza)

    Thought this could be fun too.......2 / 1 says no one holes it, so contact me..taking bets from 1st 50 ppl.

    Note: If your country or state does not allow you to bet then please refrain.

    Andy

    Andy, maybe a little caution is needed.  Who's to say that WGT will announce how many winners there are.. Also if somebody does complete a HIO at #7 and WGT don't announce the winner until the competition has ended , then that person would be at a serious advantage when laying a bet with yourself...

    Just a friendly warning.

    Pizza and Icon were seen in a huddle discussing placing a bet.

    Folks,

    Because they're awarding the prize to every hole-in-one in the single-play tournament, they are simply offering 1,000:1 odds against each player making a hole-in-one. Anyone who has played this game for a while has probably holed an occasional long approach shot, but you can imagine how often that happens for you at your own skill level.

    Each player is making an independent (side) bet against the house, unrelated to the behavior of any other players.

    WGT knows exactly what the odds are across all players. If they are limiting entries to 10,000 players, I assume the real odds are greater than 1,000:1 but considerably less than 10,000:1. This is because they probably do want to have at least one winner. It just looks better that way.
