Footy tipping - round 4

A draw was the main interesting point of this week’s round. Draws are alwyas unexpected because the chance of one happening on any given game is very small; still, you can expect to see one or two on each season.

None of the strategies allows for a draw, which means that all of them missed on that game. And, overall, this was a less than stellar week, except for the “home” strategy, which got six games right and managed to get an excelent financial result. “Ladder” did 5, still a respectable result, and “money” repeated the poor performance of last week with just three correct results.

Tipping competitions deal with draws in different ways; some of them allow you to tip a draw, while other don’t; of these, some of them consider that any tip is correct for a draw, while others consider that all tips are incorrect. Since I’m using these numbers to calculate possible financial results, I’ll consider all tips to be incorrect on the event of a draw. With this in mind, here are the numbers for this week:
