zed 1,469 Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 No clue about betting.. it says $1.30 for Ryf, so if I bet $1, she wins, I get $1.30? Link to post Share on other sites
ironmandan 7 Posted September 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 that's right Zed multiple the odds by the amount you bet and that's what you get back Link to post Share on other sites

Aidan 245 Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 TAB and Sportsbet usually come out with a market 24-48 hrs before the event. Frodeno opened at maybe $3.50-$3.80 last year. I got in at $2.80 which worked out well. Link to post Share on other sites
Peter 4,242 Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 It's such a lottery. Sure if nothing goes wrong it will be Frodo and Ryf. But step on some glass getting out of the swim or hit by a car a day before the race and it's all over. Link to post Share on other sites

Niseko 779 Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 I like James Cunnama at $34. Has gone back training with Sutton, recently went sub 8, and has a 4th in Hawaii already. Ryf is a certainty. Link to post Share on other sites

KieranR 1,954 Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 Whats the thoughts on Patrick Lange - fast marathon last year, if he didn't get penalized on the bike he would have come close to getting Keinle from memory. And how about Nick Kastelein for a top 10, maybe a genuine top 5 chance? - I have no idea Link to post Share on other sites

Rude Beef 44 Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 I'm not sure how you'd go getting a payout on an age grouper to win. Would they be crowed the world champ if they had the fastest time or surely it would go to first pro? Still, worth a few each way on Tim. Link to post Share on other sites

Has an age grouper ever had the fastest time on the day in an ironman? I'm thinking it could happen in the female ranks as they generally aren't as deep at second and third tier events.
