2014 Bet 'Em IndyContest - rounds 6 & 7 Detroit

[NaBUru38]

Hi, folks! Welcome to the round 6 of the Bet 'Em IndyContest. The Detroit street will host two races. As in 2013, each participant will post a single bet, and each race will pay separately.

The Belt Challenge will face the titleholder Kanaan and the Indianapolis 500 winner Hunter-Reay.

You must pick four different drivers and a manufacturer:

o- Winner ($ 1,000)
o- Podium ($ 300)
o- Top 10 ($ 50)
o- Belt Challenge ($ 100) - Kanaan or Hunter-Reay.
o- Winning manufacturer ($ 100) - Chevrolet or Honda.

The stakes for Detroit are:

o- 3 to 1: Castroneves, Power, Hunter-Reay.
o- 6 to 1: Dixon, Pagenaud, Andretti.
o- 10 to 1: Wilson, Montoya, Kanaan.
o- 15 to 1: Briscoe, Newgarden, Sato.
o- 25 to 1: Bourdais, Muñoz, Hinchcliffe, Conway.
o- 50 to 1: Aleshin, Kimball, Hawksworth.
o- 100 to 1: Rahal, Saavedra, Huertas.

o- Chevy: 3 to 1.
o- Honda: 3 to 1.

If you post your bets after qualifying begins, you will get only half the earnings. Good luck!

So, here's the results of the 2014 Detroit Indy Grand Prix race 1.

o- Winner ($ 1,000): Power (3 to 1).
o- Podium ($ 300): Power (3 to 1), Rahal (100 to 1), Kanaan (10 to 1).
o- Top 10 ($ 50): Wilson (10 to 1), Castroneves (3 to 1), Hinchcliffe (25 to 1), Muñoz (25 to 1), Huertas (100 to 1), Kimball (50 to 1), Andretti (6 to 1).
o- Belt Challenge ($ 100) - Kanaan (10 to 1).
o- Winning manufacturer ($ 100) - Chevrolet (3 to 1).

Teretonga, Skells22 and Marcostraz earned $ 3,000 for picking Power for the win. Salamus, NaBUru38 and DRT chose him for the podium and got $ 900.

For the top 10, DRT and WAT got $ 1,250 for picking Hinchcliffe, NaBUru38 got $ 1,250 for picking Muñoz, and Marcostraz got $ 500 for picking Wilson.

Icemachne and WAT were the only betters to pick Kanaan for the Belt Challenge, and earned $ 1,000. Five out of ten people got $ 300 for picking Chevrolet for the win.

These are the results of the round 6 Detroit race 1:

1st - Marcostraz: 3,000 + 0 + 500 + 0 + 300 = 3,800
2nd - Teretonga: 3,000 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 3,000
3rd - Skells22: 3,000 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 3,000
4th - WAT: 0 + 0 + 1,250 + 1,000 + 300 = 2,550
5th - DRT: 0 + 900 + 1,250 + 0 + 300 = 2,450
6th - NaBUru38: 0 + 900 + 1,250 + 0 + 0 = 2,150
7th - Icemachine: 0 + 0 + 0 + 1,000 + 300 = 1,300
8th - Salamus: 0 + 900 + 0 + 0 + 300 = 1,200
9th - Burp: 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 0
9th - Gomick: 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 0

By predicting Power's win, Marcostraz, Teretonga and Skells22 took the podium. WAT, DRT and NaBUru38 were next. Burp and Gomick took the Belle Isle bus to the hotel with empty pockets. But tomorrow is another day!

2nd - WAT: 0 + 0 + 1,250 + 1,000 + 300 = $ 2,550

Icemachine won the race by picking the winning driver. WAT and DRT completed the podium. Three betters lost all their money, with Burp culminating the end of May begging for coins to return to mainland.

Standings after round 6 Detroit:

1. DRT: $ 26,150
2. MTAR: $ 24,000
3. WAT: $ 17,850
4. Icemachine: $ 17,650

DRT now leads the season earnings by almost $ 2k. I have dropped to 5th, after two midpack results at Detroit. Marcostraz has progressed to 6th and Salamus has fallen to 8th. Burp remains last in the standings.
