SCORING
The best tipsters will be those considered to ‘win’ the most money from their selections. Scoring is calculated in exactly the same way as it does with a bookmaker.
Eg. the Odds on Switzerland V Czech Republic are: 1 = 9/5; X = 11/5; 2 = 13/8, and you successfully choose to Stake ‘£100’ on the draw, your betrescue.com account will be credited with £220 or if you successfully selected Switzerland to win, a stake of £100 would return a profit of £180.
