YEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSS bounced back and more than doubled my money Stephanie (swordlilly) I combined your bets with Garet's this time around, I wasn't feeling good about all of his. |

Nice! ^^ I'm happy with today's win  58K, my second-largest since starting the safe strategy xd Odds for tomorrow are looking really good, so I went ahead and bet!  Investment is 50K, minimum profit 2K (in the unlikely scenario that Tailhook loses), maximum possible profit ~165K, most likely ~21K. |

Okay, made my Hidden Tower purchase with a bit of a discount, which means I won't be sinking more than 100k into Food Club for a while. Not sure if I'll have enough to attempt getting a trophy this month, but maybe in the future when stamps aren't taunting me.

Double Upset today. Would have been a 91:10 win if anyone managed to catch it.

Well, one of my 13:1 safeties hit. I got the minimum possible profit, which was 2K.
Opening odds for next round are bad so I'll wait for them to shift. Hopefully, after the Garet crowd bets around 8pm NST, I can place bets tonight instead of having to wait till tomorrow.

This is literally the worst time for a double upset when I have less than 200k in the bank now.
Not sure if I'll be placing bets today or just playing a few games and trying competitions again. Haven't written any poetry in a few weeks and my NT projects are siphoning away any inspiration I may have for Storytelling.

As of 9pm NST, Fed's arena went from 2/6/9/13 to 2/9/12/13, which was enough of an improvement for me to place my bets :3  Investment is 50K, minimum profit a mere 310 np (in the unlikely scenario that Fed loses), max possible profit ~18K, which is also the most likely. If you want the max possible profit to be higher, you can shift some nps from the 8:1 bets over to the 28:1 and 52:1 bets, but that would also cause the most likely outcome to be less profitable. |

Yeah, I think I need to put in a safety in case another upset happens. I'm starting to feel a little more cautious even though MY BANK ACCOUNT JUST GOT RAZED TO THE GROUND and I could use another big win like the time I took Garet's gamble.

Yiiikes, another upset in the single positive arena. I got the minimum possible profit, 310 np. A lot of people tanked today. Next round's odds are looking a lot better, so I went ahead and placed my bets.  Investment is 50K, most likely outcome is 14:10 (20K profit). Minimum profit is 2K and max possible is ~129K. |

Good thing I forgot to bet yesterday, huh. My Internet went kaput sometime before 11pm and I only remembered Food Club when I was in bed, and was too lazy to poke the Internet to get back up again.
I think now is a good time to actually remember to bet.

Phoenix hit it super big today with 168:10. XD Garet and Sidney got 28:10. As for me, I got the modest 14:10 return I expected  Next round's odds are really good. It's possible to put max nps into every bet and aim for a guaranteed minimum 12:10 return. But I'm going to weight my bets such that the most likely outcome pays more. Here's the draft of what I'm thinking. I'm going to wait for the odds to shift before placing my bets, though.  Investment is 58K, most likely return is around 18:10 to 21:10 (~48K to ~68K profit). I safetied all the other outcomes which will give smaller profit. There is no risk of tanking. |

Got the same as Garet. I think I can afford to bet a bit more today, at least. Things are starting to look up.

GOOD MORNING FOOD CLUB FOLKS today (or rather, yesterday) was a very good day because I quadrupled my money.
Looks like betting 50k-70k is working well enough for me until I get back to having over 1M in the bank.
