The Betting Thread

[The People's ElboReformat]

Keep united out of the accs this week guys!! Got a bad feeling about them.

The week I actually bet on them too.

Though I'm not bothered if my accumulator is strawberry floated by Man U losing.

[Cyburn2]

gonna do this treble today:

Chelsea to Win
Stoke to Win
Middlesborough to Win

[Osito]

My system:
Couple of small accys (Chelsea, Liverpool, City etc.) to cover the cost of all the bets, and a small profit.
Couple of medium accys, Villa, Spurs, etc., which, if successful, give a decent return.
One accy for all the prem games, unlikely, but would give a big return.
One HUGE accy, that is very unlikely, but the potential return is .


On about £10 profit for the season so far, which is OK, I suppose.

Seeing as Everton are currently experiencing somewhat of an injury crisis and Villa are doing fairly well, is it worth a 7/4 pop on the Villains?

I went for a draw. We're not scoring many goals at the minute, and Saha seems to be in good form. Might be worth a cheeky fiver, though.

I put £4 on this . At least my £5 accumulator came in . Not sure about money on Derby to lose on Friday as we'll have three of our best players back from injury (hopefully), playing in front of the cameras at home, so you never know. I will probably put a bit on anyway, just in case.

Had a great weekend with my golf betting. Won on Ames in the US at 33/1 and got places with Rose (20/1), Poulter (20/1) and Molinari (18/1).

Should finally get my £152 payout on Stricker too now the season's finished so should be around £250 banked this weekend. Just need a win for Fisher next weekend and I'll be a happy bunny.

I have £10 in my ladbrokes account and I can't be arsed to withdraw that amount so thought I would do some kind of accumulator bet today, unfortunately I don't know how to.

Anyone?

Firstly while you're on the section of the website you want to bet on, (I'm going to assume Football in this instance.)

You select which results you want to bet on by clicking the odds (1 is Home Win, X is Draw and 2 is Away Win) In the example it's a bet on Villa, Celtic, Juve and Liverpool all winning. On the right hand side is the betting slip, where you can bet on the individual matches at the top and multiples further down. As you can see it's showing £10 in an accumulator as you'll be doing. Then just Check Bets as you'd normally do and await your winnings.

Betting on Liverpool? Brave/Stupid man.

[Psychic]

Just an example.

[Oblomov Boblomov]

I'd recommend sticking some money on Cardiff to beat Derby tomorrow. Looks like you can get around 2/1 on it; Cardiff have been in fine form lately while Derby have gone totally gooseberry fool again and have another buttload of injuries. Eaaaaaasy money.

EDIT - apparently Cardiff are resting several of their key players. You might want to reconsider putting any money down. Not that it'll make a difference .

[That's not a growth]

I recommend St Nicolas Abby tomorrow in the 2000 guineas before it gets worse than evens. Had a guy at work try to put 15 grand on it and was basically told to bugger off. Both the bookies and the punters are certain it's going to win. Then again, they thought that of Kauto Star for the Gold Cup...

[Captain Kinopio]

Cheers Sykes

I bet on a Liverpool draw and then the best teams winning in the games today and tomorrow, we'll see.

[Count Nood]

Put a cheeky accumulator on today and was rewarded with £152.55 worth of El Boat of Goat funds.

Well that went down the shitter, and so did my accumulator. Bah.

Who'd you have on? And why didn't you give me any tips?

[Albert]

Jesus Jim. I like your optimism, but maybe you should take a break from betting from a while.

[Adam Pollard]

I'm off to Wincanton this evening, should be a laugh, it's been years since I last went racing.

[Drumstick]

Oh hi. I figured as lots of people are betting on the WC we might as well use this thread for bets.

I am currently lining up an accumulator. Argentina, England, Germany, Holland, Brazil and Spain to win their groups.

Total stake for this bet: £10.00
Potential Return: £103.71

Seem good?

[Ropes]

For some reason I don't fancy Germany at all. In fact I backed them to go out of their group, with Ghana first and Serbia second. I also have USA to beat England on goal difference but obviously that could go either way.

Top scorer bets anyone? Torres at 14/1 is outstanding value if he stays fit.
