See if Napoli end up screwing up against Inter and conceding an equaliser, I'll be raging. Was going to go big on draws tonight...

Well done!  

 

I want sometimes to put a small bet on a favourite, eg  Liverpool last night.  I didnt like the odds  and only want to spend a few pounds.

so I waited to see if the other team might get in an early goal.  This strategy only works some of the

time of course.  Southampton did get a very early goal, and the odds for Liverpool ( away) to win

went to 8/1  , with  88 minutes left.  That time value is very important.

         When you look back from half time at  the score, you can see this was a great price. 

Its an idea that I've used a few times a year and often gives a very good return.   Celtic is quite often also

worth playing that way.

Good effort!!

 

What was the bet?

10 fold 

 

Liverpool, 2 Polish teams at home, Austria Vienna, Standard Liege and 5 Spanish teams in the cup, most against lower league opposition. Most were ridiculously good odds. Jumped in the car after playing football and pressed cash-out in a panic. Don't think my nerves could've held out for the final ten minutes though...

Nice! Well done, my mate text me about the Spanish games being good odds. He had a 20/1 shot come in. Great time of year to win that kind of money, enjoy.

Just cashed out a ?5 bet for ?3,450. :sunny:  :sunny:

 

If I'd let it run it would've won ?5,800  :behead:

 

Look into laying it off on Betfair/Smarkets.

 

Cash out on most bookie sites gives incredibly poor value.

 

Don't think it would have worked in this specific case but it's something to be aware of in the future.

1 goal off a ?4500 return from a tenner today... 23 out of 24 games had 2 goals or more, 1 goal short.

Sickening bud. Happened to me a couple of weeks ago with 3 or more goals from 10 games. One goal shy of ?720.

Arsenal 11/10 to beat Southampton on Boxing day. I've got a single on that.

 

I think 7/1 on Watford to beat Chelsea is a big price, they are the type of team that could get a result against Chelsea. Small bet on that.

 

Finally, I've gone with Watford (+2) in a treble with Leicester (+2) (away to Liverpool) and Hibs (+2) (away to Rangers). It pays 9/5 with bet365, Ladbrokes is slightly better if you have an acct. with them. Maybe worth considering Norwich (+2) away to Spurs mainly due to the results they've been getting, can't see Spurs hammering them. 4/1 for the 4-fold.

 

If you don't know what (+2) is, it's a handicap bet, your selection wins if the team wins, draws or only loses by 1 goal. Odds are much smaller that backing the team to win outright but in this case, I feel it has a good chance.

 

Good luck if you go with it.

Arsenal are a brilliant price at 11/10. Stoke 12/5 at home to Man Utd looks good as well. 

 

Wouldn't normally double up an early kick off with the late game but tempted by that.

Sore yin. :(

Pretty much sums up my betting luck just now.

 

Would have had a wee ?15 win to compensate but Spurs got and scored a very late penalty.
