Perhaps "the bookie" should not be venting his feelings on losing his snacks without logging out first.

Now, I know the snacks rollover for Mexico, but the odds will be determined strictly by the new bets, right? I'm going to put 100 on Petter- a little bad luck cost him the win this round and hardly anybody realizes it, except us of course.

The odds will be figured out as we start betting.

So damn, Mexico looks like it will be a hard one to predict. Carlos Sainz is strong in new events (experience counts for something) winning both Turkey and Cyprus in their debut years. But, Rovanpera won Mexico in 2002 and Loeb recce'd there last year for Citroen.

Solberg, Martin and Gronholm should be strong too.

Gosh, its hard for me to pick a favorite. Let alone an outsider with a good chance of winning (for me to bet on )

I bet more snacks. I don't know if that is what we were supposed to do, or not

I assumed that when we said "rollover the pot" it meant that all the unwon snacks from the last round would just become a bonus.

You're probably right. I'm not a gambler by any stretch of the imagination.

I'll throw in some more snacks... Now to figure out who has the best chance... Hrmmm...

I'm going to take a stab in the dark and go with Martin, mostly because I htink he's going to win the championship. I just donate my wager to The Bookie right?

Yup. Donate as many as you wish, although it seems the standard is 40.

Hell, I feel "patriotic". I'm going 100 on Solberg.
