Tigers aren't playing all that well but are doing just enough to be leading 18-0 at half time

This is the issue having a halfback who knows only one way to score- off a kick and a five eighth who is a utility at best, you have no points in your team.

Archer is being a mongoloid in the highest order. That and we're making a couple of silly errors. The fix is in for the Tigers today.

Some idiot has bet $26,644 at $1.05 on the Tigers at halftime.

I don't understand bets like that. You might as well put the money in the bank and get a similar amount of interest.

Penrith continue to embarass their fans. I know the lineup is poor but still can't even score a point in 2 hours + of footy...

Where is this bank that pays compound interest at 5% every 40 minutes?

My excel spreadsheet crapped itself trying to work out the annualised return.

For comparison if you compounded at 5% every 40 minutes for a 24 hour period you would have $5.79 by the end of the day.

You may not understand bets, but you have NFI about finance...

EDITED caused I screwed up the initial calculation.

Going towards 170 minutes now.

If Penrith finish the game scoreless they will be 1 minute short of 3 hours without scoring.

Obviously you're not in a position to make a $1.05 bet every 40 minutes.

And teams have come back from 18 down at halftime in the past, it's not impossible. Essentially 0% risk by putting that 26k in the bank.

My point was what is the point of risking such a massive amount of money for such a small relative return when you could make the same amount (a little more slowly) with 0 risk in a bank.
