Fair play cardifflad. If you played your cards right you couldve got a free £10 bet at skybet to double profits. I was set to lose a few more quid as i told everyone to bet on him. A few of them were paranoid so i told them id cover there stake if he loses! Crazy i know but was supremly xonfident. Shouldve stuck more on it but then im probably just being greedy! Merry xmas ho ho ho!!
I whacked £10 @ 8/1 on a Rose points win purely based on your confidence so thank you very much mate!!!

John Higgins has to be value at 8/1 for the UK snooker next week and I've had a small bet on that.

Also done a quadruple on Higgins to beat McLeod, Williams to beat Jogia, Ding to beat Mark Davis and O'Sullivan to beat Steve Davis at 6/4 with Stan James. I normally clean up on the early rounds of snooker tournements so hope that continues.
I like Robertson at 9/1 - he's on form this year and proven over the longer format. Plus Higgins has a minging draw. Matthew Selt to beat Dott at 7/4 looks nice for a short punt - Selt has already beaten Walden, Higgins and Hendry this season and Dott can be a slow starter.
Robertson has a good chance but Higgins loves the big events and will be extremely hard to beat.

Well, I only need Mark Williams to beat Joe Jogia tonight now to land the above 4 fold, 7 fold and 13 fold acca's! Naturally I've layed a bit off to lock in a guaranteed profit but this would be very sweet at 30/1.
I've also has a couple of very small bet accumulators.

The first is a 7 fold at 9/2 with Boylesports on Higgins, Robertson, Murphy, Ding, Williams, Trump and Allen.

The second is a 13 fold at 30/1 with Boylesports on Higgins, Robertson, Murphy, Ding, Williams, Trump, Dott, Gould, Stevens, Selby, O'Sullivan, Allen and Carter.

I went big on the 4 fold accumulator I flagged up but the 7 and 13 folds are just for interest.

Chuffed about the snooker bets. The 4 fold at 6/4, 7 fold at 9/2 and 13 fold at 30/1 all came in.

Just had a medium sized bet on Phil Taylor to win the Players Darts Championship starting on Thursday at 11/10 with sportingbet. Hope he can double this up with the World Championships which I piled into at 5/4 last month.

I done a "Goliath" bet for the upcoming CL fixtures just to keep an interest:

Borussia Dortmund to beat Marseille
Chelsea to beat Valencia
Ajax - Real Madrid DRAW
Man United to beat Basel
Lyon to beat Zagreb
Barcelona -1 vs Bate
Napoli to beat Villareal
Lille to beat Trabzon

€20 bet returns €334.89 + 15% bonus if they all come through.

Also stuck a €5 accumulator on the above which returns €558.13

Ronnie can be very frustrating at times. He really should have won that match but hey ho! Only a tiny dent in yesterdays winnings!

Ashley Theophane to stop Ben Murphy @ 5/6 (Ladbrokes)

Theophane doesn't stop many but Murphy is a small lightweight stepping up to light welter British level on 3 days notice.

Yeah, I'll run with this too, and Bayaar to beat Edwards.

Might have a dabble on Khan to beat Peterson on points at close to 2/1.
