Winner Stays On / Editor / 11 October 2010 /

Here's your chance to take part in this fantastic competition, entering couldn't be any easier!

Thirteen editions of Winner Stays On have now taken place and we are yet to have a winner of our fantastic £100 prize, awarded to anyone "staying on" for five weeks in a row. Mind you, Michael Peters came as close as you can get, winning four in a row before falling at the final hurdle at the hands of the mysterious "Homebanker", who justified his moniker by successfully predicting Chelsea would be leading at half-time and winning at full-time at home to Arsenal, the selection that proved so vital in knocking out the reigning champ.

We're now inviting all Betfairians to once again enter this fantastic competition where you get to show everyone you're the top tipster in town as well as become the first winner of the £100 prize. Here's a reminder of the rules. Deadline for entry is 6pm this afternoon.

1. Send an e-mail to winnerstayson@betfair.com with the words "I want to stay on" plus your name, e-mail address and telephone number. Please also state whether you'd like to use your real name or your Forum name for the purposes of the competition, should you get the chance to play. You are not allowed to use your Betfair username for the purposes of this competition. If you instruct us to use your real name, this shall be treated as consent to our publishing your name on both the Betfair Forum and https://betting.betfair.com/in relation to this competition.

2. You must have an active Betfair account to take part in Winner Stays On (WSO).

3. Betfair will pick fifteen names at random to be the first fifteen contestants of WSO. Once all fifteen have played, we will give Betfair users another chance to enter the draw for a chance to play WSO. Chosen contestants will be contacted by phone (and e-mail) to make them aware they have been selected to play. If Betfair can't contact a selected contestant within 24 hours of them being selected, another one will play in their place and the original contestant who couldn't be reached won't be given another chance to play WSO. The deadline to enter this draw is 6pm on October 11 2010. Selections for the game must be received by 5pm on Thursday for the weekend game and by 5pm on Monday for the mid-week game.

4. In each round of WSO, two contestants will be pitted against each other. Each contestant will make a selection from one market on each of three football matches picked by Betfair. Contestants can make their selections on any market available on Betfair.com related to the chosen matches. Each of the contestants' selections will equate to a £10 "fictitious" back bet or a "fictitious" lay to a liability of £10. This means that no real money will be used to fund the bets in WSO, and customers will not receive any real money from their winning selections, except as set out in these terms and conditions.

5. In each round of WSO, the winner is the contestant who has the greatest net profit (or the smallest net loss) across the three markets. The winner stays on to play in the following round against a new contestant picked randomly by Betfair. If both contestants have three losing bets in any one round, both are eliminated and two new contestants shall be selected. If the two contestants have the exact same profit (or loss provided all three selections aren't losers as per above) they will go head-to-head again the following week.

6.The odds for contestants' selections that are valid for the purposes of the competition are those taken from Betfair.com at the time of publishing the selections of the two contestants on https://betting.betfair.com/ for the upcoming round of WSO.

7.WSO will be run twice a week with selections published on a Monday relating to midweek matches and on a Friday relating to weekend matches.

8. If a contestant wins five consecutive rounds of WSO, they will receive £100 credited to their Betfair account and a further £100 for every subsequent five consecutive rounds they win. There is no limit on the number of weeks a contestant stays on.

9. Betfair's decision is final on all matters relating to WSO.

10. Betfair Standard Promotional Terms & Conditions apply.

Homebanker does of course stay on and will remain in the hunt to win the prize.
