Betting Thread

[Strokes]

Know the feeling, mine isn't the amount I lose, or miss out on - it's the nature of the way I lose that really irks me. I've been done TWICE in accumulators where one team's been winning and another losing in the last minute - the losing side scores two in injury time to win and the side that was winning goes and draws even later on. Swansea drawing at home to Kuban absolutely riled me too. Such a nothing game and they conceded a pathetic penalty in the 90th.

Lately for me I'm not even coming close.

I've stuck £2.50 on PSG 2-0 Marseille & £2.50 on Ibrahimovic anytime to cover it.

For me thats why i like gambling, you are usually intrested in the game until the very last minute. I usually only put small stakes on but this weekend have steaked about £90.

Im about £8 down in total and have been in most bets until the very last minute, so i have enjoyed the £8 i have spent

Anyone else see that PP have got a market open on the Pistorius murder trial?

Shocker.

, why not?

[Dan]

Pretty low really. Are they that desperate for money that they have to take bets on something like that? As if anyone's doing it through knowledge rather than guesswork.

4/6 guilty, 11/10 not guilty. Got to love the PP novelty bets. This is my favourite though..

PSG 1-0 up with 20 left, Maxwell the scorer.

 

It's perfectly set up for Ibrahimovic to miss a last minute penalty.

Even offering a money back special on Pistorious!!!

It's just a bit "bad taste" for me.

A woman was innocently killed in all of it.

[Dan]

2-0 Cavani.

 

I swear if none of my bets come in I'm going to be ****ing livid.

Stick a tenet on Pistorius going down, you'll be onto a winner.

He's 11/8 to be found guilty.

My mate has bet £20 (max bet) on him being guilty with money back if found not guilty.

[Dan]

Holy shit I win.

8/13 for guilty right now.

[Bert]

This was the picture my mate sent me earlier! Big change in the market!

I'm on the site now and it says 8/13. Took a picture on the ipad but it says it's too big to upload.

[Jimothy]

Sorted.

That's the price I'm seeing too.

Like I said, big change in the price there.

Could have guaranteed a profit if you put two bets on a the right times, surely?

I've literally just been texting him about it.

I think he can guarantee himself £24 profit.

£20 at 6/5 returns £44

£20 at 11/8 returns £47.50.

An outlay of £40 with a guaranteed return of £44 as well as £20 refund on the losing bet = £64/£67.50 (pending whatever outcome) means £24 minimum profit unless I've totally got it all wrong?

For some reason I put £6 on at 20-1 that Sunderland would be winning at half time and Man City at full time..... £126 - couldn't believe it when Sunderland held on to the lead at the end of the first half!

Forgot that you get a free 20 quid bet with Coral aswell, so lets see if i can turn this into some proper money!

Had a bet not long back, end of Jan I think, few league/cup winners. 

 

City to win the League Cup (1/6)

Leicester to win the Champ (1/3)

Chelsea to win the Prem (2/1)

Benfica to win the Portuguese league (5/6)

Barca to win the Copa del Rey (evs) 

 

City obviously won yesterday so that's one down. We're in from 1/3 to something stupid like 1/10 or so. Chelsea in from 2/1 to 6/5. Benfica in from 5/6 to 2/11 (thank you Porto for being so shit recently). And Barca odds slightly shorter but still even money to 5/6 or so playing Real in the final. 
 

City won, we look in the bag (touch wood) as do Benfica. I think Chelsea will win the Prem. Not sure on Barca, them vs Real in a final is 50/50 really, as odds suggest. 

 

Debated cashing out but they're only offering me 2.5 times my stake, let it roll and it'd return at 16s.
