The Betting Thread

[Ropes]

I've got Stricker doing well in the US tour whilst Donaldson and Hansen are in with a shout at Gelneagles. Also did a cheeky ew on Spurs winning the Carling Cup during the week.

Also, backed Sophie at 14/1 earlier in the series to win big brother. She's 5/4 now but still not totally convinced she'll win.

Backed Glock at 5/4 to get some points tomorrow. Looking good but I really have no idea what will happen in tomorrow's race. Might be worth a cheeky one on an outsider, especially if the rain may come.

dammit Wolves drew.

[Osito]

Up £45 this week.

This betting stuff is easy.

[Count Nood]

Good work Rich, now send it to the captain.

[Ropes]

Not my best month really, about £40 down not including all my season long bets on the English football. My 15th second place finish in the golf this season didn't help matters either.

My tip for the weekend is Chelsea, Middlesbrough, Leeds and Rotherham all to win their games. You'll get around 7/1 on it; I think I'll be sticking a fiver on and laughing as I rake in £35 profit.

[Oblomov Boblomov]

Woah, I didn't realise that the Leeds game was tonight, so was going to put the bet on tomorrow, but now I'm obviously glad I didn't! Am I the only one still under the control of the evil Lord Gamblor?

[The People's ElboReformat]

I have no monies at the moment.

When I do though, a gamblin' I'll be doing. And winning lots of monies.

[Osito]

Made a few accies earlier on, just before Uni, so need a big win.

Some fairly hard to call games this weekend, so good odds get.

Since I started betting a few weeks ago, I've made an overall profit of £12.

Least you made a profit. I made nothing for the whole year last season.


This season is where I make up for that and win big.

Believe.

How about we all get together and do a Derren Brown style prediction of the correct scores for matches? We can all be miwyinaires this time tomorrow.

Check this bet out on bet365. I've put a 10-fold accumulator on all the favourites (to win) and the odds are about 1100-1! I know it's a long shot but, hey, for a quid it's worth a punt. I'd say about 7 of those are very likely, so i've done a 7 fold at 115-1 @ £3 as well. And a cheeky 20p on 6 folds (7 bets = £1.40) in case one doesn't come in.

Btw, i'm loving the idea of arbing. Cheers for the info on that.

EDIT: I meant to say for this weekend's premier games

Get on Megson to be first manager sacked. If Bolton lose to us today, surely its a cetainty, and Al Fahim has said he wont be getting rid of Hart. No-one else looks likely to be sacked. Hes available for 5s and higher.

[Cyburn2]

Probably do a £2 double on:

Portsmouth to win
Arsenal to Win.

Payout would be £11.40

I could be writing some content for an online bookies if I can successfully blag the interview next week. Anyone got any ideas for stuff you'd like to see on a gambling site? Help me out and if I get the gig I'll see you right when I start getting all those inside tips...

[Oblomov Boblomov]

Here is my tip for tomorrow's games.

Notts County to win,
Bournemouth to win,
Rangers to win and
Celtic to win.

You will get just under 13/2 on this four-fold accumulator.

Had an OKish weeks work on the Champions League fixtures so put €10 on a twenty way accumulator for a laugh in addition to my normal bets. I'm fairly certain it won't come in but as long as it doesn't end up with 19 of them coming in I won't mind.

[Oblomov Boblomov]

You put ten Euros on a twenty-game accumulator?!

[The People's ElboReformat]

You're gonna be a millionaire... or do I mean millionbear? eh? Wait. No. My mistake. Millionaire was correct.

€10 is a bit excessive, as someone else said. I think the max payout in most bookies is around £500,000 to 1,000,000. For €10 you probably passed that after about the 9th or 10th result. Always use the odds calculator when placing these bets.
