If I place a bet on an event, the stake is immediately deducted from me. That might mean I lose 50 uTT points, or 50 Petz points or 50 reputation etc.

When the bet is settled, if I lost I get nothing back. If I won, I get my winnings, plus the stake returned as well.

All bets are settled using an infinate supply of system points/money. I did think about making it so that there was a "system pot" or the administrator/event owner being liable, but it didn't seem to be as much fun as people would have to concentrate too hard on a) their odds and b) limiting the number of bets they accepted so all wins could be covered.
