https://www.netbet.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/IMG_2-1.jpg1230630In our continuing series of betting explanations, today we’re taking a look at Round Robin bets. Where does the name come from, exactly? Surely, it’s something to do with birdwatching? Actually, it has nothing to do with birds at all. The term “round robin” is a corruption of the French phrase “ruban rond”, meaning “round ribbon”. The story goes that government ministers signing any petitions of concern would place their names on ribbons and attach them to the petitions in a circle, in order to make it obscure who signed first. Later on, this practice was also used in the royal navy by officers.
