Todays' big Mover is Newcomer James the Gills man who has jumped to the top of the table with a £137.07 profit on his bet. 5 players are still in profit.
I have decided to remove the stakes from the running totals when the bets arrive as would be done in real life as it reduces the chance of making mistakes.
