<center><b>I have made a couple articles on Posting Bets on Steemit [<a href="https://steemit.com/steemit/@costanza/posting-bets-on-steemit-how-to">Part 1</a> & <a href="https://steemit.com/steemit/@costanza/how-i-post-bets-on-steemit-explained">Part 2</a>] and will continue on this topic by clearly explaining how everyone who posts bets can use Tables which is a very clean and reader friendly way to do it. This post will be used as an effective way to explain new SBC members in the future how making tables works...</b></center>

<p>To post bets in a table format, you just need to understand a small bit of easy code on how it's done. It can be a bit confusing at first but once you get a hang of it, it's actually very intuitive. Table have Columns and Rows, they can be done in any configuration. The basic configuartion is 2x2 (2 columns and 2 rows), the code to do its is...</p>



<table>
<tr>
<td>
<b>Code</b>
<pre><code>
Column 1|Column 2
-|-
Row 1|Row1 </code></pre>
</td>
<td>
<b>Table Layout</b>

Column 1|Column 2
-|-
Row 1|Row1 
</td>
</tr>
</table>

<i>When you copy the <b>code</b> and paste it into your steemit post or a comment (<i>always make sure there is no text directly above the code</i>) you will see the <b>Table Layout</b> in the preview.</i>

All the word can be adjusted to anything you want but the 2nd row of code always needs to be <b>-</b> for each Column followed by a <b>|</b> so <b>-|-</b> for 2 columns, <b>-|-|-</b> for 3 columns, <b>-|-|-|-</b> for 4 colmums and so on... there can be as many rows added depending on how many your need.

So a 4x3 table (4 columns & 3 rows) looks like this...
 
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<b>Code</b>
<pre><code>
Column 1|Column 2|Column 3|Column 4
-|-|-|-
Row|Row|Row|Row
Row|Row|Row|Row</code></pre>
</td>
<td>
<b>Table Layout</b>

Column 1|Column 2|Column 3|Column 4
-|-|-|-
Row|Row|Row|Row
Row|Row|Row|Row
</td>
</tr>
</table>

<i>When you copy the code and paste it into your steemit post or a comment (always make sure there is no text directly above the code) you will see the Table Layout in the preview.</i>

<p><i>Posting bets in Table form is a very easy way to list bets and keep track of the results while keeping a history of previous bets that can be settled by just copy-pasting the previous post and editing where needed. This can be done on a weekly or monthly basis depending on the amount of bets. </i></p>

<p><i>By The end of the month (or week) all bets are lined up nicely so overall stats can be easily made and copy pasted into a monthly results post. That table can be used to show a complete results history month by month. The text of the mont can be turned into a hyperlink to the post that contain the entire months results overview ... </i></p>
