Place Your Bet!

The day is getting nearer and nearer for the latest Dotulong to pop out of his momma’s tummy. The doc said that the due date is Jan 18, but as you know the baby could come earlier or later - hence I’d like to purpose we make a mini casino and bet on the birthdate, just for fun, keeping in mind that Thea might burst any minute! Say we place Rp 50,000 each with a date, and the winner(s) will get the money once Thea gives birth. Wouldn’t that be fun?

The rules:

  • Only one bet per date
  • The deadline is the baby’s birthdate
  • If the date you choose passes and the baby has not been born, you can pick another open date
  • If the birth date is not chosen by anyone, all money will be refunded

The bets (name of the person placing the bet and Gavin’s guesstimated birth date):

  1. Linki 15 Jan 2006
  2. Mia 16 Jan 2006
  3. Mercia 17 Jan 2006
  4. Hengky 18 Jan 2006
  5. Kaufik Anril 19 Jan 2006
  6. Erwin 20 Jan 2006
  7. Sebastian 21 Jan 2006
  8. Mulyadi Setiono 22 Jan 2006
  9. Tom 23 Jan 2006
  10. Yuji Law 24 Jan 2006
  11. Thea 25 Jan 2006
  12. Brinton 26 Jan 2006
  13. Irene 27 Jan 2006
  14. Linda 28 Jan 2006
  15. Marta 29 Jan 2006
  16. Lala 30 Jan 2006
  17. Rein 31 Jan 2006
  18. Eric 1 Feb 2006

And the winner is Mulyadi Setiono!

    Hmmh.. what’s wrong with 17 th January? Nobody picked it.
    Mia: 5 days more huh…?

  4. Linki Says:

    Please place a bet for me on Jan 15. Get the money from Mimi.

    If Jan 15th passes by uneventfully, and I want to place another bet, do I have to pay again? Or, can I use the money from the 1st bet?

  5. Hengky Dotulong Says:

    Yup, have to pay again..
    So if the baby born late, the fund will be big enough for take a dive trip to Irian Jaya.
