If I can go in for double triple stress on Bellchamber (did this once before on Langford for double double stress).
Meaning that if Bellchambers plays the next three games (betting on making the 8 here) I get 2 x triple stress bonus’s for 2 x 50% investments = 100% on Bellchambers triple stress x 2.
Hambo will only be $120k off the lead after this week, and the only contender who isn’t locked in for R23 already. So he could make a big play on R23 and take the lead if it comes off.
Bad news I’m afraid. You took a Trauma option on Laverde. That option doesn’t pay weekly returns, only the big final payment at the end of the 5 week period if he plays all 5 games. However, because Lav did not play all the games from R19 to R23, you will not get the final payment either.
You don’t lose the lot - your money is just frozen till after R23, i.e. Finals, then you can trade again. In every option you lose 2% each week for each player that does not play.
The comparison is investing, not betting. You get a return or not, but it takes a while to lose all of your investment.
