Sir Rols 1899 Report post Posted May 31, 2012 how do you know how many shares in something you have? I think it depends on when you click on your prediction and you get those coloured bars "should this be higher or lower". I noticed today clicking on the middle bar gave me six shares, and clicking on the highest bar gave me nine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Rols 1899 Report post Posted July 2, 2012 Whoa! Huge movement on the Tokyo shares price overnight! Glad I've bought up low. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Rols 1899 Report post Posted September 24, 2012 (edited) And bargain basement Madrid and Istanbul shares now - just picked up 1000 shares for less than $20 virtual bucks. Almost hope they win now - that'll be a cool $100,000 profit for me! Edited September 24, 2012 by Sir Rols Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Athensfan 1081 Report post Posted September 24, 2012 I wouldn't buy Madrid if it were a penny per share. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Rols 1899 Report post Posted September 24, 2012 Just figured I'd hedge my bets - and honestly, they were so cheap they were next to nothing - I think I stand to lose about $20 if they lose, as expected, and like I said, $100,000 plus if they win! I notice someone else has just gone on a HUGE Madrid & Istanbul spending spree! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Rols 1899 Report post Posted September 24, 2012 Hmmmm. I think someone's being a bit too over-enthusiastic in their support for Tokyo and treating it as a popularity poll rather than a "market" - I see they've been at work overnight again and flatlined the Istanbul and Madrid chances (Madrid fair enough, but I sure wouldn't rate Istanbul as 'no chance').

Olympic Fan Darcy 321 Report post Posted September 24, 2012 ahahaha what? Tokyo 98% thats pretty confident bought about 100 shares in Istanbul Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Rols 1899 Report post Posted September 24, 2012 bought about 100 shares in Istanbul Yeah, too good a bargain to pass up. As is Madrid - but I don't need more than the 1000-odd shares I bought in them yesterday for next to nothing! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olympic Fan Darcy 321 Report post Posted September 24, 2012 Yeah but annoying thing is my max profit off Tokyo is only $800. Whereas Istanbul is something like $18000 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Rols 1899 Report post Posted September 24, 2012 Yeah but annoying thing is my max profit off Tokyo is only $800. Whereas Istanbul is something like $18000 Yeah, this mad keen Tokyo fan (I think it's Kisah) is stuffing it up with his overeagerness for the rest of us who think Tokyo will win. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cinderella 6 Report post Posted July 24, 2013 Oddschecker just now has Tokyo as way favourite at 4/5, daylight, then Istanbul next on 7/4 and Madrid trailing at 9/2 Things have changed and now its Tokyo 3/5, Madrid 6/1 and Istanbul 13/5... with an amazing "Any other city" 0/1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Rols 1899 Report post Posted July 25, 2013 Things have changed and now its Tokyo 3/5, Madrid 6/1 and Istanbul 13/5... with an amazing "Any other city" 0/1 That's surprising. So Madrid's actually fallen in the bookies estimates from 9/2 to 6. I'd have thought it would have picked up a bit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deloxley 11 Report post Posted September 4, 2013 The odds are incredibly shortening for Madrid....and although this have been happening during the last few days, today was the most radical change. does anyone know why this sudden change and why Istanbul is drifting? I havent seen in the news anything that could give me a clue about this and I think this is weird... not that Im not happy for Madrid but I would like to find some explanation..

I havent seen in the news anything that could give me a clue about this and I think this is weird... not that Im not happy for Madrid but I would like to find some explanation.. People putting their last minute bets on - not surprising to see Madrid pick up, as they do seem to have the momentum. I see Madrid's picked up in the GamesBids predictive market as well - my 3000 "shares" will net me $291,000 virtual dollars if the m wins now! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
