Can someone explain this to me I think I'm misunderstanding accumulators:
I had
Buglioni to win
Walsh to win
Gavin to win on points
Chambers to win
Smith to win
Eubank to win in rounds 7-9
And fury to win in 8-12 or points

I went for a 6 fold out of the 7 and bet £21 in total if they had all come in I'd have won £689. The Eubank bet lost but the others came in but I actually lost money and won a princely sum of a total £15.40.

How did that happen?

Probably the fact that the only one you lost was the only real bet you had, the rest were big faves

Well that was a fail, Saunders deserved the decision in a close fight. Eubank doing nothing for the first 5 rounds. Chisora was utterly atrocious, even worse than the first fight which I didn't think was possible! I was also on Costa to score anytime yesterday just to add to my woes, bad times at the minute.

Exactly that.
The Walsh, Gavin on points, and the fury bets were all decent odds.

Bet365 doesn't even use the word accumulator but figured out picking five winners it's a fivefold bet I need, so gone for Walsh, BJS, FURY, Gavin & Crawford.
Fury and Gavin are a bit unpredictable, but i'm guessing the big man's ( possibly unwarranted ) self belief will pull him through on points
Easy money :TU: :TU:

Fury points
Crawford points
Geale points

Ok bet. But not sure Gavin stops Skeete. Not sure he punches hard enough.
Yeah you were right. I thought maybe the step up for Skeete may be too big and he might have got stoppped. Had the Colin Lynes fight in mind too.

I had something similar. 6 or so accas. 2 of which would've come through if Chisora had lost on points.

Damn you allegedly for telling Charles To stop the fight! Not sure Dereck would've made it anyway but still.

If he had I would've got £2,000 that I could've done with!

I still won on BJS pts and so e small accas so up £300 total. Not a bad weekend, but could've been so much better!

Joshua v Johnson NOT to see the bell is 1.8 with Boyles. I have had a decent bet on this. I know Johnson is super durable but I think a trigger happy British ref will jump in when Joshua starts to unload.

Joshua hype should ensure that 1.8 gets smashed in to about 1.4-5ish. Ill be happy to lay at that price.

Are 'British Stoppages' recognised the world over now? Any international fighters who aren't journeymen* must think long and hard before they come over. A flurry of punches that don't even land can do the job sometimes it seems. I've never seen that outside of a British ring.


* I realise that Kevin Johnson is starting to fall into the 'journeyman' category these days.

Not many faves win prizefighter but I really can't see anything other than Buckland winning on sat. Bit too worried of cuts to go too large tho.

I normally just back someone with stupid odds for prizefighter Martin at 12/1 is my bet, but I want Buckland to win.

Early price, I caught Richard Abril at 1.75 against Crolla. Early prices often over price the British fighter. Eg Lee started at 1.75, now 1.4 max.

Abril has already gone to 1.62

Right. Surely a world class fighter who has been low on the radar decimates a Brit quality fighter?

I notice whenever someone world class or potentially world class comes over here the odds are Ridiculous Crawford 4/11 Kovalev 4/5 and now Abril 4/6

Great point. I won on the first 2, though even I doubted myself due to the odds..... Also Lee-Korobov opens at 1.75 or something Korobov.... A steal

What time does PF kick off tonight? The other half has the x factor on so i'm thinking of sticking it on the laptop (skygo for any legal people)

Also, Stan James have priced Devon Alexander up at 9/4 to beat Khan next week. 7/4-2/1 elsewhere. They all seem big to me in a fight where Alexander is the slight favourite
