I'm gonna put the hundred back in my bank and use the rest to bet with for the rest of the year. I will redeem myself after my moment of madness last year.



You were fully mental all of last year :OhYes:

Just lump on the favourites you should make a tidy sum come the end of the year.

Nice job Keith, I was leaning towards Pascal but wasn't sure enough to put money down. Plus I probably would have favoured Jean by late stoppage rather than decision if I had bet.

Still nothing this year of interest for me. In tennis I fancied Nadal when you could get him at 10/3 but I have a love affair with accumulators and I couldn't find any other fixtures to bung in there.

You must have been shouting at Pascal bit during the last few rounds!

Fancy Jennings V Szpilka not to go the distance at 6/4. Both can bang and have leaky defence.

I see Boyles are offering 6/4 for John Joe Nevin to remain unbeaten in 2014 and 2015, looks like free money, just a matter of waiting a while though. I'm gonna put silly money on Joshua to win a world title before 2020, there will be lesser fighters than him to win a version in that time.

Agree. I put £50 on Joshua a while ago - that was the maximum they'd let me though. I think the 2017 bet is too early for him.

I see Ladbrokes have odds for a lot of UK boxers to either win or not win a world title in 2014.

I have put a decent bet on Lomachenko to beat Salido on March 1. 9/2 is too good a price.

Paddy Power. Would only let me put on £100 at 9/2 then they changed the odds to 5/2 (again another £100).

Hopefully he does the business.

Don't think they will honour that bet as they have the odds the wrong way around!

Yeah well these assholes just decided to change the odds to 1/7 for Loma and changed the odds of the bet without telling me!!!

I'm not happy with this. If a bookmaker is willing to take the original bet they should not have the right to do this! Any advice/previous experiences of how to solve this would be much appreciated.

You won't have a leg to stand on unfortunately as they'll claim "palpable error" meaning they fvcked up with the price.

GGG and Joshua are so short that you'd need a grand on to make anything.

They will let you cancel the bet but won't honour it. Forget about it and move on..

I'm a bit confused. Lomachenko is now a massive favourite (1/6) whilst you can get 4/1 on Salido.
