Insurance Bet

Recommended Posts

Posted

I am a crap better. I loose a lot more than I win. So in view of this I am having £100 on a Spurs win tonight. If Spurs don't win i'd quite ​happily loose the money. If they win, then at least i'll be £78 better off and can at least afford the new plaster board and paint I require for the hole in the wall thanks to yesterdays game :-)

Surely if you're gonna stick £100 on an insurance bet you'd be better off just putting it on Spurs winning the title?

Yeah already had a few quid on Spurs to win the league back in December. That's covered :-)

Can see the logic of backing them tonight but not outright. They can win tonight but not win the title (in which case you collect). They don't win and their title odds will lengthen significantly.

 

Alternatively, just don't bet, and BELIEVE!!!

I've had £85 on Spurs to win the league at 7/2 from winnings from a free bet. I am abysmal at football betting so I'm relaxed that this has just won us the league.

So does everyone who's betted on here

I've done like many appear to have done. Stuck money on Spurs winning the league and 40 on them winning tonight.

I couldn't care less if I lose the money!

So do I my aggressive friend. So do I :-)   :thumbup:

 

 

I bet you that doesn't happen though :P

I've done the same, I honestly don't see what's wrong with it,

 

I was having serious palpitations, not sleeping and I couldn't bear the thought of throwing it all away (I'm not exaggerating)

 

So last week I bet £50 on Spurs at 5/1. I got a free £50 bet as a result and also put that on.

 

I get £600 if we somehow throw it away.

 

It will be scant consolation but it'll pay for my holiday which I'll need!

 

I can see this could offend some people but I feel I needed to do it for my own health,

I think maybe 550 not 600

Just knew I should've backed Spurs to win the title again before the odds shortened!

They're now 7/4

I did exactly the same. Didn't like doing it and want to lose that money but see it as a cushioning blow.

Did the same on us to get relegated last year and that worked out ok.

Interestingly Paddy Power cash out today (on a £50 bet at 7/2) only pays out £54 - seems as though they have more faith in Leicester than a few fans 

 

... This is on Spuds winning the title

I might put £10,000 on Spurs winning the title, win win situation then

why throw 10K quids away..  the cocks won't win it
