I really don't understand much about betting and odds, but I'll give it a try this month. Here goes:

#1 Contender's Match: What, no odds on a Steph ref bump? $47 on Triple H winning at 1:1 $47 on Triple H kicking out of the Angle slam at 1:1 $50 on DQ/Countout (Triple H pins Angle, but Steph DQ's him when he bumps her) at 4:1

Bill Savage went over to the (Stu Hart) house and one of the Hart kids was running around with his hair wet. Savage asked why his hair was wet. Stu said, "The little bastard broke a vase this morning, so I stuck his head in the toilet. Want me to show you again?" From the Ring Around the Northwest newsletter

Hey Shane, shouldn't you be including the $1000 that got bet originally? i.e. a $200 bet at 2:1 should add $600, not $400 (400 winnings, get original 200 back). And, a 1:1 bet should not have the options of "You get your bet back, or the house gets it.
If I'm right, to save you some time I recalculated using this criteria and got:
WFT13 - $3,400 A Fan - $3,000 Fazzle - $2,750 Raptor - $2,400 mskj - $2,000 cfgb - $2,000 Gumbercules - $1,800 TexasKelly - $1,735 RageRocker - $1,419 PinkSkunk - $1,350 Ike - $900 (I'm top of the people who lost, dammit!) J.T.Dutch - $799.80 Squiz - $600 MoeGates - $0 Catapult - $0 jimimium - $0 Guru Zim - $0 CRZ - $0 (Say it ain't so!) rte66usa - $0 BigDaddyLoco - $0 Medium Sexy - $0
Total Collected - $21,000 Total Paid Out - $21,453.80 Vegas Profit - -$453.80 Per Person - -$21.61
Ya got my $100 though, ya punk.
Mind you, I have demonstrated my total lack of ability with mathematics in TWO separate posts on this board despite my HAVING A MATH DEGREE so please, someone, double check me on this.
Actually, since you HAD to spend the moved, people had a reaon to bet on the 1:1s.
I was probably confused, but the order of people is still the same either way.
