Re: Betting thread
Only one bet for this weekends boxing and its Thompson to stop Price @ 4/1.
Not saying its a sure thing but there is certainly value in it at those odds. I thought it would have been round about 2/1 or maybe shorter!

Re: Betting thread
the odds on price v thompson are crazy - thompson is great money to win. I might stick a £10 on thompson by KO its 11/4 on sky bet for him just to win outright.

I'm lumping on Tony - anyone else?

Re: Betting thread
Im thinking £5 on thompson to stop price in round 5.

If the fight lasts that long I can only see Price stopping Thompson.Finn wrote:Im thinking £5 on thompson to stop price in round 5.
Re: Betting thread
Got some money on the Thompson stoppage win.
Re: Betting thread
I fancy the Aussies to turn the Lions over this weekend. That prat Gatland has made a right arse of the team selection. -2 at evens is tempting.

nah i think price will be ultra defensive then get tagged and sparked. Hope im wrong.cutsman wrote:If the fight lasts that long I can only see Price stopping Thompson.Finn wrote:Im thinking £5 on thompson to stop price in round 5.
Re: Betting thread
I am the other side of the bet to a lot of the people. I think Price is class and the first fight stoppage was a bit of freak punch as far as where it landed. I think price will start cautious but an opening will present itself and he will take thompson out with a big shot inside 6. I have actually gone reasonably heavy on Price to win when the odds were 1.4 with sportingbet.

Re: Betting thread
I'm on the Thompson stoppage train. Put way too much money on this, probably my biggest bet since I bet on Valuev beating Haye
I can easily see it going either way but 9/2 is just way too good value to miss.
I've also done a double on Janowicz beating Murray and the Thompson stoppage. Think the big Pole has a chance of upsetting Murray, particularly if Andy plays as bad as he did on Wednesday.

Yep, i see a lot of value in both of those bets and that's what punting should be all about in the long run.Riddick Blowe wrote:I'm on the Thompson stoppage train. Put way too much money on this, probably my biggest bet since I bet on Valuev beating Haye![]()

1.4 as some took above on Price KO is ridiculously short based on the first fight. 9/2 on Thompson KO when Price has a galss chin, well it's just huge!
Betting is all about value. Janowicz has beaten Murray already in a previous encounter, is young and improving fast and has a huge serve. Murray looks to be struggling to deal with the expectation on his shoulders and also seems to be carrying some injury niggles. All in all, 4/1 on Janowicz is therefore a value bet.

Re: Betting thread
Not sure how bad Murray played Verdasco is a solid player who had a good tournament. Will leave it alone as I know very little about the sausage roll.
I have laid Djokovic @ 1/5 and laid the 3-0 at evens, aftertiming but after my current abysmal run of 5 consecutive weeks without a profit it's allowed :(

Re: Betting thread
Lewis Hamilton @ 4/1 for the German GP is a decent price IMO the Mercs race pace and tyre wear problems are now been overcome and the Nurburgring is one of his favourite tracks.

Re: Betting thread
Just got in to see Janowicz is a set up but a break down in the second, but the Pole is taking it to Murray and I'm not sure Murray can win being so defensive...
On the other hand, there's a guy who isn't so defensive ... Amir Khan spotted in the audience!

I think Murray has cracked the code, he is reading the serve

Can't stand Murray I won't be too bothered if He gets beat here but if He gets to the final I'll get a few quid on Novak.

I want to get on it, to make up for Jonathan (I can't be arsed to knock someone out) Banks, but I have a strange feeling this might go the same way.Hagler2002 wrote:Is anybody not on the Thompson KO?

PREDICTION: Price on points.

Re: Betting thread
Put the mortgage on Djokovic at 3/5 with Paddy Power. I don't see much way of Murray beating him and those odds are just skewed by patriotic Brits.

What would put me off is Murray is the fresher of the two, not just after the semis but they skipped the French Open purposefully to concentrate on winning Wimbledon.Riddick Blowe wrote:Put the mortgage on Djokovic at 3/5 with Paddy Power.

I don't think Djokovic is as nailed on as some people think.
