    6.45 - Tarantella Lady - 50/1 £2.50ew

    Will be betting on tomorrows races on channel 4, but might not make it on here depending how bad the hangover is.  Will post them on my facebook page via my phone if you wanna add me to see them feel free

    The game is almost up for Utd....Sunderland @13/2 anyone?
  • edited February 2011
    Ahhhh I have an odd £24.58 in my account, and I love betting on things that I want to happen...so at 13/2, the question is....

    Shall I put the odd 58 pence on? Round it off by putting the odd £4.58 on? Or go for the full £24.58.....


  • edited February 2011
    lol Dohhhhhhh have £24 on Sunderland, keep back the 56p (just incase of a fiasco) and put the other 2p on the first goalscorer (Beachball @ 1500/1)

    haha ive bottled it, mainly because ill miss the first half, Eastenders must take priority 

    On tilt from last night still - need to avoid the sky bet.

    Gone for the 4 n abit quid option. - nice one for puttin it on here! Looks a very gud bet.

    awww thoguht it was gonig to win, still a nice place @ 50/1
  • edited February 2011

    How encouraging has this batting performance been for England....10/1 u got? Win or lose today, I bet they arent 10/1 in the morning.....



    Edit, just to clarify, even if they lose today - they will be lower than 10/1!

    Sorry Dohhhhhhh that was an epic fail :0(

    Yah as I thought, despite losing their opening game, England are in from 10/1 to 15/2......

    Really excited about our chances after last night, robbed by a combo of the rain, and the system - but should beat Ireland today and make the next stage....

    Wish I cud buy that bet off you 35, looking really good - But knowing England - it's gonna be edge of your seat stuff today !!!

    Would never bet on Cricket....because (tbh) I do not understand it fully, but I LOVE watching 20/20, everyone trying to thrash it all over the place as if their lives depended on it. Good Stuff to watch.
  • edited February 2011

    I think we will win this game....and im hoping the odds go up again, (how weird wud that be, lose, go down, win, go up)....

    But these 2 games were formalities really.....

    Just to get into the main competition proper....

    The aussies looked so good the other night though......

    7/1 gareth,.....tried to have a tenner on the double, 20/20 n the world cup, but as usual sky bet wont play ball.


    advice on other betting accounts? i cnt go to whill as i already have an account....same with laddies....

    tell me one ill deposit n get the double on

    Any thoughts on the Man City v Spurs game tonight? I've had a punt at Defoe to score in a 1-0 victory @ 40/1. If Spurs get the first goal I reckon they'll just lock it up, especially if Dawson can hit the form that he was in vs Arsenal and Chelsea.
  • edited February 2011

    Not gonna have a bet tonight - 2 teams I love to watch as a neutral......a night game, so shud be a good atmosphere gonna avoid skybet and just enjoy it for what it is!

    I hope Cty get the first goal though, as u said if Spurs get it, they could sit back.....which wud ruin the game for me.

    Looking forward to it ! :)

    Ok I've had a good look around, mainly on the best odds rather than what bonuses you get a new customer.

    The best bookies for odds is www.bodog.co.uk they go 13/2 the footy and 9/1 the cricket making it a 74/1 double.  They offer a 10% deposti bonus, plus numerous other bonuses if you bet quite a lot with them.  Ive never sued these so couldnt reccomend them but they show up with www.oddschecker.com and they will only give you decent bookies.

    The 2nd best bookies odds wise is www.bet365.com where they have the football at 6/1 and cricket at 9/1 this pays 69/1.  They offer you an 100% deposit bonus they e-mail you a code once youve joined so dont deposit till you have the code.  Slighlty worse odds, but slgihtly better bonus for someone who wont bet regualry. 

    I think the bodog one you need to make regular bets of £10 to get further bonuses so probably wouldnt be any good to you, ive got a bet365 account, and use them for the horses regulary, so it would be those id reccomend.

    Hope you use them now after trailling through loads of bookies and odds lol and good luck with your bet

    Didn't quite get that, so it's a good thing I also put £10 on a 1-0 Tottenham win @ 11/1! £105 that i'm going to take to the poker tables up Gala any second now!
