How fun would it be to bet on your own game.

I was playing the other day, had a win and thought how good would it be if I could put a bet down on myself when I play. 

Has anyone else thought about this?

  • Haha i wish but kind of goes against the point of the game. I too am terrible at gaming but it would make it that much sweeter when I won.

    Would the sweetness not be compromised somewhat by the bitterness of all the inevitable losses? I'm assuming you don't have a crystal ball that will tell you in advance which matches you're going to win?
  • I guess that's why it's call betting. Makes the game a little bit more exciting and I guess the pay out rate would reflect your skill level. If you 1/100 the pay out would be 1 to 100 or something similar.  What are your thoughts on this?

    I wouldn't want to downplay the value of excitement and if you can get some by risking a thing of value on the alchemy of chance + ego then I say go for it. I'd rather see you "risk" your money on a high-yield, no-load mutual fund, but you do you bro.
