    Well I predicted the result V USA wud be 1-1, and wrote it somewhere on the forum....

    but 100% confident England willl win tonight no worries chaps, gonna enjoy the game, safe in the knowledge Ill have a few quid to come when I log back on.

    Predicting a comfortable win tonight, if we score early, maybe 2-0 and ease down after 60 mins.

    If we dont score till half time, ...I reckon we cud romp 3/4 towards the end as they chase the game.

    Either way - easy win to zero.

    Heskeys is playing!!!! that should knock ur confidence a bit!!
  • edited February 2011

    Whilst Im running good, Ive hd a fiver on Heskey to score the first goal.

    Massively overpriced at 7/1 for a centre forward, who knows the dodgy ball might help him out.

    Lets make it 4/4 for DOHH England!!

    I blame the ball

    Easy after the event, but they dont look like a team to me....

    Surely the friendies are for making the team play together, not trying everything and everyone to see what works.

    One bet at Ascot fo me today Fleeting Spirit, he has run well fresh before and is one of the few genuine Group 1 horses in the field. Im gonna have to hold my breath though as he has to be held up and hope he get's the gaps. Richard Hughes is a great booking for the ride as well

    Have a feeling that Frank Lampard is gonna be dropped for Wednesdays game against Slovenia, Is there anywhere I can find a price on this kind of bet?

    Heard it here 1st !!
  • edited February 2011
    Ive had a look mate but cant seem to find anywhere wehrre u can bet it.

    Another big betting chance starts tomorrow with Wimbledon you haivng a bet??

    I know it always eems to be the same people who it it, they reckon its nailed on to be a federer nadal final and the 2 williams sisters facing each other but i fancy a couple of upsets this year just dont know who is gonig to do the upset lol.

    So for the men ive backed any other to win it at 16/1 so I have the wqhole field except Federer, Nadal, Murray and Roddick.

    Also gone for any other in the womens, at a bigger 27/1 its bigger because theres more people to dodge, both Williams sisters, Hennin, Clijsters, Sharapova, Stosur, Azarenka.

    Ill be ahving a couple of big accas tomorrow as well, tend to do well the first weke at wimbledon.

    Ahhh tennis isn't something I'm big on, but as the world cup has been disappointing, it will be a refreshing alternative.

    Ivo Karlovic......always think he's hard to beat on grass, but will look tomorrow morning.

    After withdrawing 90% of my br and then losing £250 friday night, I had £200 at start of play today.

    Had £200 spread across 2 tables half hour ago, and £22 behind, so when I saw Tiger was 10/3 to win the US Open tonight, I couldn't resist.

    So £22 at 10/3 on Tiger.

    Love that the leaders nowhere near tee-ing off yet, great nights TV in strore, so a betting interest is kool.

    Just hope I dnt blow the rest and have to deposit for first time since I joined sky! noooooooooo
  • edited February 2011

    Karlovic isnt playing mate, well i asusme he isnt theres no betting on him, but yeah his serve was pretty awesome.

    If i was to pick a few players at big prices id go for

    Berdych 50/1
    Davydenko 200/1
    Baghdatis 229/1
    Wawrinka 329/1
    Blke 500/1

    But they are witohut looknig at the draw so may face feder or nadal in round 2 hence the big prices.

    Wont be staying up to watch the golf,will watch it till around 11.30 good luck with ur bet

  • edited February 2011

    Those prices are weird! and look big value!!

    I logged my tables off, and had £207.....

    I plucked up the courage, to load skybet up, convinced I was gonna put the lot on tiger!!! I honestly wanted to do it so bad.

    Ended up having the odd £7 again at 10/3 !!! lol

    Also £1 on Havret at 66/1

    Is it good or bad that I wanna gamble sooooo much but just darent.

    Bit of both I spose?
  • edited February 2011
    you probably want to gamble because your account looks empty after withdrawing most of you roll, after seeing a putt tiger just had i wudnt put any more on him mate.

    Theres a lot of value in the mens tennis, after the first 4 or 5 they are all big prices, just gotta get federer and nadal beat thats all
  • edited February 2011
    GONE FOR JUSTIN HENIN AT 8/1 IN THE WOMENS AND SAM QUERRY E.W AT 40/1 IN THE MENS
  • edited February 2011
    i looked at querry, dont really know much about him just the fact his odds range from 40/1 to 100/1
  • edited February 2011
    Your bet looking a wholeeeeeeee lot better now the leader hit a tripple bogey on the 2nd, it wasnt me telling you to put no more on tiger!!
  • edited February 2011
    Unlucky with your bet dohhh when i saw the winning score was +1 couldtn beleive it wasnt woods, if he played half decent yesterday he would have won it.

    Anyway had two £50 accas today, i do love the first week of wimbledon and fully expect both to come in, the only thing that mgiht stop me is an injury forcing a retirement.

    Mens Acca

    Lopez 2/9
    Ljubicic 1/6
    Davydenko 2/5
    Melzer 1/5
    Troicki 1/4
    Fish 1/5
    Beck 1/4
    Wawrinka 8/15
    Becker 2/9

    Pays 8.39/1 with bluesquare

    Womens Acca

    Bartoli 1/6
    Kirilenko 2/5
    Petrova 1/8
    Kleybanova 1/5
    Shvedova 7/19
    Schiavone 5/11
    Wickmayer 5/11
    Bondarekno (kate) 2/5
    Gorth 1/4

    Pays 11.2/1 with corals
  • edited February 2011

    So ur on for a grand if all of those win Gareth??

    wow. How tempting.

    Finished the night with £160 - Even had Havret, a quid on at 66/1 to cover Tiger, he missed a sitter at the last, if that goes in theres an 18 hole play off to look forward to tonight....

    What wud the price be if u put all those games, men and women, in 1 bet? - Im gonna do that I think, wanna keep 3 buy ins to try and make a comeback on the tables, really dont wanna re-deposit..
  • edited February 2011
    well those odds are from to seperate bookies so wudnt get quite so good, but still im sure it will be quite tasty, but then any acca with 18 selections should be tasty.

    Going back to the racing the favourite should win the openinbg race at both lingifield and wolverhampton today and the double currently pays 3/1 on skybet, gunna have £20 on it
  • edited February 2011

    Im having a double tonight at Windsor Dance East in the 8.10 and Montparnasse in the 21.10 race. The last named horse has had 3 runs for a handicap mark and looks like the longer distance will suit.

    Nice one JJ. I often sit and watch the racing while playing poker, I dont always have a bet but make notes on anything that runs well or should improve when it has a handicap mark.
  • edited February 2011
    with argentina through cant see them playing messi or higuian so milito and aguero(who look on fire when he came on against korea) will probably both start avaliable at 5/1 first goal scorer and 11/8 to score anytime
    im going for both to score first and if i can find 11/8 elswhere having a double on them both (sky wont let me do it)
    also for a bit of value there both 14/1 to score in the first ten minutes which might be worth a small bet.

    Early start on the pop today.

    Fired skybet up with the intention on having my whole account (190) on england at 1/2

    But it was only 4/9 so put me off! haha

    Gone on the handicap bet - england minus 1, a more conservative £20 at 5/4

    But still an hour, and a couple of tins to kick off anything can happen

    edit....its 2 hours!! oops
