The crowd goes boooooo!!!! Romeo is playing the four corners stall!! BOOOOOO!!! goes the crowd! [

Crowd chants...
Take a risk! Take a risk! Take a risk!

Romeo could just short as many Portugal as digger, so as to not go bankrupt in the case Portugal win tonight, and still get as much money as him in the case France win, no ?

Romeo is a knight, haha !

Whomp · 05-07-2006, 16:40

That's what he's doing. He's hedging his risk by doing what Digger is doing. Since Robboo and Tubby are also short Portugal he's safe.

BOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!11!!!shabba!!1!!!!eleven!!!!1

Socrates · 05-07-2006, 16:47

Ah yes, I see it now. I thought that he meant to do like digger : short EVERYTHING. But in fact he "matches", ie. shorts as much as. Got it.

So Romeo isn't a knight. He doesn't want to play the ULTRA BANCO.

Whomp · 05-07-2006, 16:51

Romeo is playing like.....PORTUGAL!
BOOOOOOOOOO!!!!111!!!!shabba!1!!!11!!!eleven!!!1

Tubby Rower · 05-07-2006, 17:05

booooooo hissss boooooooooo

Cover my short of Porto and sell France short. That way I'll either catch up with Romeo or go bust

barbu1977 · 05-07-2006, 17:07

Boooooooooo

BTW, we need some kind of booing smily. Mistfit?

Tubby Rower · 05-07-2006, 17:09

wow if France wins... Romeo will have lost ~ $2k. Robboo might be in the best seat.

Whomp · 05-07-2006, 17:33

Robboo is also short Portugal. He'd be best to short France or sit on the sidelines.

BTW this was Romeo's strategy he was talking about. Boooooooo!
