Worth a big blind?

edited February 2011 in The Shed

As always, sunday morning = tired / headache and absolutely no poker!

Need to turn to sports betting to get my daily gambling thrill. - Very optimistic today!...
  1. Bolton v Arsenal Arsenal 4-1 @ 25/1
  2. O'Sullivan R v Selby M 10-9 Selby M @ 9/1
  3. Aston Villa v West Ham Aston Villa 3-1 @ 14/1

I know I've backed arsenal to win easy....but noticed Bolton are 6/1 at home to win! Any optimistic Bolton fans should take a look

    Good Luck with your bets, you backed singles or gone for a huge treble?

    Not having a bet today but i fancy villa to draw 1-1, Bolton to win 2-1 and selby to win 10-7.

    So dotn really fancy your bets, but since ive not had a bet hope they come in for ya

    Cheerz, just gone for the trebble, only stuck a big blind, 50p on it, returns over 2 grand....u shud look at the price for Bolton 2-1 if u fancy it, new manager and all that - cnt believe theyre 6/1 to win at home, Arsenal always struggle there.

    Think its likely to be tight, but it could go the other way if Arsenal score early...and 25/1 looked tasty.

    Wont matter anyway, watching this battle of the claret n blue n its terrible, needs to improve 2nd half.

    Ugh 1 outta 3! - thats one more than I usually get anyway.

    Arsenal cuda scored 6/7 n that was only the first half, fell asleep at half time! dohh!!

    Gunna keep positng my bets on here, if anyone has any big acca's or outsiders, horses, dogs, footy, golf, bowls, whatever, post em on and ill have a go at em, dont mind speculating to win big !!

    Cheerz, DOHH

    Not an acca, but hoping for a goal fest for the televised game tonight.

    Newcastle vs West Brom
    33-1 Newcastle to win 3-2, £3
    50-1 West Brom to win 3-2, £2

    Weekends little yankee (I do a correct score yankee every weekend, only 45p, so just under a fiver in total)
    Only needs a couple to come in to make it worthwhile, and about once or twice a season when 3, or even 4 (four times in 9 years, but that's been four great holidays!) come in, it's a nice earner. Bet little so it doesn't matter if you lose, that's the way to do it.

    Villa 4-0 Brighton 10/1
    Pompey 2-1 Sunderland 9/1
    Bolton 2-1-Sheffiled Utd 7/1
    WBA 2-2 Newcastle 12/1

    couldn't believe it when he missed!
    my old granny could have put that in.
    nevermind, made the game much more exciting for me.

    i'm not normally one for betting odds on, but over 2.5 goals for tonights city v utd game, at 5/6  looks good to me. didn't quite push all-in, but have made a sizeable bet. Also had a few quid on Tevez to score anytime, nothing massive there though.
  • edited January 2010

    Ive not had a look at the markets tonight....guna have a steady gambling free night, ok maybe an optimistic scorecast or something and a tko, but apart from that nothing! Its at eastlands right? Fancy something like city 4-1, and its surely inevitable Tevez is gonna score!!

    Fergie's said hes putting the kids in again? - Fear city will rip em apart! Hope so anyway! lol

    Ive gone for an emphatic 4-1 win to united, @ a massive 100/1 with corals

    Only a couple of quid and really dont expect it to come in actuaslly think we'll win 2-1 but not worth put a couple of quid on that.

    well doh diamond harry been cut from 12/1 to 6/1 for cheltenham hope you backed it before todays win
  • edited January 2010

    Guys I left this bump too late last week, I asked for your selections at 1pm giving u a whole hour to get back to be before the racing came on TV at 2pm!

    Result - Picked my own own, 4 horses, set off between 2pm and 4pm last Saturday and they haven't finished yet!

    Anyway, any weekend tips?? - long shots preferably, (wether that be singles or multi bets)

    Any sporting event, preferably televised, but if u have a hot tip anywhere in the sporting world, Im prepared again to put my money where your mouth is!

    Thanx chaps and chap-esses!

    Hope your best bet comes in, im not so keen on it yes 4 wins out of 4 is impressive but those were class 6 class 5 and two class 4 races.  Tomorrow is a class 1 and the likly favourite has had lots of experience in class 1 races and ran at cheltenham fextival last year
  • edited January 2010
    Yea thats a fair point but i still think this horse will improve past them all.. Do u have any best bets for 2moro or any ante post fancys for the festival..thanks
  • edited January 2010
    Well your pick is currently 3/1 fav, Even tho i dont fancy it ive had a few quid on it as id hate to see a tip win when ive not backed it.

    Only other bet on horses ive had today is @ cheltenham 2.05 Akilak, backed him @ 8/1 which you can still get, some bookies are as short as 11/2.
  • edited January 2010

    I watched the morning line....Are Donny and Cheltenham both on? before I stick a bet on?

    - Cheerz for the horses guys, i'll be backing em all!
