Junior Fund going up

Amazingly, I got a couple of bets right this weekend.

First, a word of explanation - thanks to betting exchanges, not only can you "back" a team to win, you can do the opposite by taking the opposite side of the bet (known as "laying" the bet). So you can offer a bet to someone who wants to back a team to win, and what you are doing is backing that team to "not win". In a head-to-head match, it's almost the same as backing the other team to win, except on the very odd occasion something called a DRAW happens.

In the interests of simplicity, I put the bets up for the junior orienteering team as "$30 on the Bulls to win @ $3.60", when in fact what I am doing is laying the Chiefs @ 1.40 (yes, the prices aren't exactly the same but I wear the difference)

So the Bulls bet did come in, as well as the Reds beating the Cats. My reputation is slowly being restored as the JWOC fund is up to $871.80 from $820 bet. Probably would have been simpler to just donate the money but where's the fun in that?
