Re: Betting thread
at least you won something.
its extra sad because I picked up on 10/1 on the KO1 for Price which would have taken the accumulator to about 70/1, but i just couldn't bring myself to move some funds. Then of course it shortened dramatically to 6/1 in places.
I'm just not a gambler any more :( This type of night doesnt come along very often, real value... the old me would have piled on the first three rounds for price with maybe a hedge on the fourth, then placed a couple of accumulators covering the rd 1 and 2...

Re: Betting thread
It's not all bad though. At least you haven't lost. There may have been a time when you've done your nuts and not had a pot to piss in. Bet what you can afford to lose. I didn't really lump on, although I had enough on it. This year so far has been good as fights I've bet big have all won and even the silly 6-1/10-1 shots have been coming in. It's not always the case though. I try and do it for fun but when you've got a good hunch it's a money making exercise and shit gets real.Riddick Blowe wrote:at least you won something.

Re: Betting thread
Decent site to bet with though. If you bet 10 quid in a day you get a loyalty stamp. Every 5 of these you get equals a free 5quid bet. They tend to give out a few freebies

They are good I must admit that. Free 10 quid bet when joining and the loyalty stamp does reward you for your spending.freddydoesdallas wrote:Decent site to bet with though.

Re: Betting thread
Had a fortunate win on Chelsea and Fulham today so I'm maybe riding my luck but I'm going for a Anderson, McDonnell and Brook stoppage wins at just over evens for the treble.
Re: Betting thread
Got £25 on..
... Malinaggi Points
Quillin KO
Garcia KO
Alexander KO
I'm worried about Garcia stopping Morales but he looked on fire against Khan so i've got hope.
Thoughts?

Re: Betting thread
Cheers mate. I placed it as Brook was walking into the ring and I had him stoppage too which was bringing in over a grand; Skybet had me off though and took that bet off!

I think Pique is injured. An easy 2-0 win for the Hoops with a Sammy double - get your money on that!funtime wrote:Haha, i actually shudder at the thought of "super" Gary Hooper tearing Pique a new one!Gazmac81 wrote:take that barca one off mate

Realistically both teams to score should be a decent bet IMO
Re: Betting thread
I wouldn't bet against Shakhtar at home or any team from that part of Europe to be honest. The conditions always give the away team hell. Chealsea will be favoured, but it's a tough one. I wouldn't be against Bate Borisov either. They've looked good so far, and Valencia don't look as strong this year.funtime wrote:Shakhtar Donetsk v Chelsea

Re: Betting thread
The odds of Bates european form continuing dont favour them in my eyes, although they have made superb progress this year. Amazed Bressan hasn't been picked up around a higher level, been a gem on FM for years!!
Every time i bet against Chelsea i lose, did originally have it down as a draw but wimped out at a moments notice.
