Hollywoodbets is the hub of betting excitement in SA; there is no doubt about that. They have cemented that reputation with their Punters Challenge, where users can bet on the results of horse races from Singapore to right here in SA. The user with the most points at the end of each day takes home the biggest prize.
What is the Hollywoodbets Punters Challenge?
The Punters challenge Hollywoodbets has right now is a perfect promotion for those gambling fans who enjoy their horse racing. The promotion is less about immediately claiming a bonus and more about earning your bonus by outperforming your fellow horse racing betting fans at Hollywoodbets.
The Hollywoodbets punters challenge login event happens daily on the site. Basically, you will choose which horses you think will win scheduled events for the day, either in SA, Singapore, or Hong Kong.
❗ The higher your pick finishes in each race, the more points you earn. If you earn more points than your fellow Hollywoodbets users, you will then win the top prize for the day.
It’s important to note that you don’t lose if your horse doesn’t win their race. You earn the most points if they do win their race, but you will still earn points if they finish 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc. When you finish in the top 20 players for points earned in the day, you will be entitled to a share of the R5,000 daily prize pool. Here is how the winnings are shared:
- 🏆 Winner – R2 000
- 🎖️ 2nd Place – R1 000
- 🎖️ 3rd place – R500
- ⭐ 4th place – R250
- ⭐ 5th to 10th place- R125
- ⭐ 11th to 20th place – R50
How does the points system work?
The Hollywoodbets Punters Challenge uses a dynamic points system where every point is crucial.
👉 Points are allocated based on the finishing position of each horse, with the total points available depending on the number of horses in the race.
For instance, in a 10-horse race, the winner earns 10 points, the second place gets 9 points, and so on, with the last place earning 1 point. In a 16-horse race, the winner receives 16 points, and the last place gets 1 point.
👉 Additionally, points are boosted by the starting price of the winning horse. For example, if a horse wins a 12-horse race with starting odds of 12.5/1, it will earn an extra 13.5 points, totalling 25.5 points.
Starting price is a useful way to try to boost your points earnings, which will hopefully bring you closer to the top of the leaderboards for the day.
👉 In cases of dead-heats, points are shared equally among the tied positions. For instance, a dead heat for third place in a 10-horse race will see each horse awarded 7.5 points. If a dead-heat occurs for first place, the points and the starting price bonus are split accordingly.👉 If a horse is pulled up, it is considered last and receives one point. The cumulative points are updated after each race, and the punter with the highest total points for the meeting wins the prize.
