By Sarah Smithon Wednesday, 13 Aug 2008 Online betting and bingo company Bet365 has caught Olympic fever and is running 20 Going for Gold events for punters to play.
The top 100 placements in each competition will achieve medals, which will then be added to their tally on a leaderboard.
Finishers in the top 15 will receive golds, the next 35 will get silver and the rest will receive bronze.
Once the promotion has ended, cash prizes will be awarded in accordance with the final rankings.
Tom Galanis, marketing manager at Bet365 Casino, commented: "We're aiming to emulate the spirit and excitement of the Olympic Games with this promotion."
"Here anyone from many nations is welcome to participate and compete for the glory of victory," he added.
Players will be attempting to emulate the 17 gold medals that China currently have to maximise their chances of taking home the cash. Team GB currently holds two and lie in ninth place in the rankings.
