I would like to model a betting system relationship using the power of rails. so lets start with doing something very simple modelling the relationship from a user to a bet.i would like to have a model bet with 2 primary keys.

here are my migrations

enter code here

class CreateBets < ActiveRecord::Migration def self.up create_table :bets do |t| t.integer :user_1_id t.integer :user_2_id t.integer :amount

  t.timestamps
end

end

def self.down drop_table :bets end end

class CreateUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration def self.up create_table :users do |t| t.string :name

  t.timestamps
end

end

def self.down drop_table :users end end

the models

enter code here

class Bet < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :user_1,:class_name=>:User belongs_to :user_2,:class_name=>:User

end

class User < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :bets, :foreign_key =>:user_1) has_many :bets, :foreign_key =>:user_2) end

when i test here in the console my relationships I got an error

enter code here

u1=User.create :name=>"aa" => # u2=User.create :name=>"bb" => # b=Bet.create(:user_1=>u1,:user_2=>u2) *****error*****

QUESTIONS:

1 How do I define the relationships between these tables correctly? 2 are there any conventions to name the attributes (ex:user_1_id...)

thank you for your help
