Is anyone else on Barker and Cleverly to win? £20 returns £99

[Hagler2002]

The 5s on Tiger's not looking too bad now is it Hagler? i would still rather Bradley wins it but gonna be some task to overhaul Tiger

Yeah looks like a winner already m8 well done, the price was still too short ante post IMO.

[black panther]

It's a good price but is Groves going to put up the kind of performance that Kessler put up in their first fight or Ward in that distance fight. Can't see it going the distance. Ill be lumping on Froch stoppage.

Yeah, remember how hard Kessler had to fight to even edge Froch in their first fight. Now imagine Groves being able to do that. He just doesn't have the constitution.

In other news, Mayweather stoppage is 6/1 guys. Looks like good value to me???? I could see a late TKO due to Canelo being outclassed/corner retirement?

I'm thinking accumulator of Mayweather stoppage, Froch stoppage, Haye stoppage, Kovalev stoppage, and mayyybe Pascal stoppage, and then a separate accumulator with Mayweather decision and no Pascal stoppage.

Save your money mate; Mayweather's shots will bounce off Canelo. It will be a welterweight vs a lightheavyweight come fight night.

It won't take much to shift the odds, some firms are going 15/8 on Smith. I had 50 bananas on it and a pal of mine got some on but I'm not sure how much.

You can still get 5/2 at betfred.

It was 3/1 it moved to 5/2 after a few of us backed it at 3's

Yeah I put a ton and a half..... plus a couple accys: Smith, McKenzie, Heffron

[Ronners]

Nathan Lyon 5/1 to take most wickets in England's first innings. England's seamers struggled and Lyon was getting decent turn last night so I've had a dabble.

[The Insider]

Nathan Cleverly will be my big bet at 5/4

I'll tie this in with a lucky 15 of Buckland @ 2/5, Enzo Mac @ 9/4 and Geale @ 8/11.

Anyone getting involved with tonight's US fights? Was thinking about adamek and chambers points (1/2 and 4/5) double.

Don't know much about opponents though. All I know about Guinn is he once beat Harrison.

[Ronners]

I know little about Guinn, don't think i have ever seen him. Decent chin but low work rate i think is the consensus. Adamek points? I know not the odds and I don't plan on getting involved. Just thought it'd be nice to reply however

[freddydoesdallas]

Orient are a good price tonight v cov @5/6. Cov have about 6 senior players in their squad.

Do any of the irish lads know why shamrock were odds on to beat dundalk in the league last friday? Dundalk were 2nd in the league and 7 points clear of them but 9/4 to win. I was on them for that reason but thought I was missing something. Clearly not as they won 3-1

[Hagler2002]

What are you on for the golf this week Billy?

I always find the USPGA a bit of a lottery so I've only had a small play on Snedeker and Michael Thompson EW.

[Hagler2002]

I've recently had my sky switched off, my bill was close to £100 a month and I've been out of work for the last 3 so it had to go.

Just had a little bit on Zach Johnson EW also.

[Hagler2002]

I know there's a few lads that post in this thread who like their darts so I thought I would put this here.

I just read that the Ferryhill Flyer Phil Nixon passed away yesterday after a very short battle with cancer, his BDO World Championship final against Martin Adams was TV gold.

[Hagler2002]

No Billy just stuck with my original 3 bets, as I said I'm not keen on the USPGA so don't really get involved. Good luck with your selections for the final round m8.

I just opened an account with Bet365 on account of their £200 bonus offer. I deposited £200 and got the £200 bonus. I was led to believe that the bonus amount had to be bet three times prior to making a withdrawal, which I was happy with. However, now I've deposited I have a screen saying I need to rollover my bonus AND my deposit three times prior to making a withdrawal???!!

This seems like absolute lunacy to me, how can they withhold my main deposit until I've made three subsequent bets??? Does anyone have any experience of this? Am I naive for thinking they would only subject my bonus to these rules because it seems pretty dodgy to me.

Duno think it's pretty standard to be honest. Why do you want to withdraw it so fast? I just stick money in and use it as and when required.

[Bard of Boxrec]

Why do you want to withdraw it so fast? I just stick money in and use it as and when required.

You don't understand, you have to bet 3X your deposit and 3X your bonus within 90 days, and on odds longer than 1/2, otherwise you lose the money. (I thought they meant you had to bet three separate times at first).

So that's £1200 I have to bet, and win, to clear the bonus. Seems the best thing to do is use this account for my accumulators so I don't lose all the winnings if I make the accumulator.

[WelshJack]

Betfred has an enhanced treble on Clev, Enzo and Buckland if anyone is interested it's 10/1 nearly double the price you would get.

[JC]

I've had some of Fury dec at 11/1. Not saying it's the most likely outcome but if he boxes like he did vs Johnson it's certainly possible. I actually think it's more likely than Fury winning by knockout as he won't want to take chance with Haye's power.

That and Groves decision i'm going with.

If you want to part with your money that badly, at least give it to charity or something. Or just go with the direct opposite of each of those results.

[Bard of Boxrec]

Kovalev is going to knock out Nathan Cleverly early. Just put your money on and thank me later.

Clev schools him wins by 7-9 rounds.

[horndawg80]

Where's my man Hagler? He always gets it right as does Deano!

What are your thoughts on Smith? Is he going to beat Buckland on Points?

Also Campillo........Will he defeat Fonfara?

One last thing.......Enzo isn't going to beat McKenzie as long as he has hole up his ring......correct?

[The Insider]

I've had a little more on Clev, although his odds are now shortening from the 5/4 I took last week. He's now at 21/20 (i took 10/11 with sky bet).

[Bard of Boxrec]

What are your thoughts on Smith? Is he going to beat Buckland on Points?

I have a few small accumulator bets with Smith in it based on Hagler's tip. Feel like I should be worried about a hometown decision?

Anyway, bets I have made, largest first. Basically if Kov does the business I have made a good profit already and will obviously then be rooting for the increasingly ridiculous accumulators.

Sergey Kovalev to win in rounds 4 - 6 @ 11/2
Sergey Kovalev to win in rounds 1 - 3 @ 7/1

Doubles, averaging a price of about 30/1

David Haye to win in rounds 4 - 6/Sergey Kovalev to win in rounds 4 - 6
Sergey Kovalev to win in rounds 1 - 3/David Haye to win in rounds 4 - 6
David Haye to win in rounds 1 - 3/Sergey Kovalev to win in rounds 1 - 3
Sergey Kovalev to win in rounds 4 - 6/David Haye to win in rounds 1 - 3

Trebles, averaging a price of about 90/1
Stephen Smith/Sergey Kovalev to win in rounds 4 - 6/David Haye to win in rounds 1 - 3
Stephen Smith/David Haye to win in rounds 4-6/Sergey Kovalev to win in rounds 4 - 6
Stephen Smith/Sergey Kovalev to win in rounds 1 - 3/David Haye to win in rounds 4 - 6
Stephen Smith/Sergey Kovalev to win in rounds 1 - 3/David Haye to win in rounds 1 - 3
Kovalev stoppage/Haye stoppage/Froch stoppage

Accumulators, averaging a price of lol

Stephen Smith/Mayweather/Haye stoppage/Froch stoppage/Kovalev, Round 1

Then the same results but with Kovalev up to round 5.

Then a slightly larger bet:
Stephen Smith outright/Kovalev outright/Haye stoppage/Froch stoppage
