Odds have to be atleast 500/1. Interesting to see if any of us can win at least once.

That ain't no MUGG sjones! Pighead laughs at your mere 30/1 attempt. The end of the year is rapidly approaching. Time to bring closure to this MUGG business.

Barney to win World Darts @5/2
Shrewsbury(V Darlington) @7/4
Chelsea(-2) V Fulham @ 8/5
Charlton (V Villa) @ 8/5
Arsenal Sheff Utd over 3.5 goals @9/4

522/1. Pighead shall look forward to settling back on Sunday evening to watch Barney bring home the MUGG!

Could well be on Monday, Sunday was just a guess on my part. As for Taylor winning it, yeah he's a worthy favourite to do so but Barney has beaten him before and maybe just maybe...........

Anyway Pigheads pretty sure the MUGG will have crashed and burned before then anyway!

Complete and utter horse sh.it. The more games you place in an accumulator, the greater chance you have of losing. Its bets like these which make Paddy Power and every other bookie very, very rich.

What's horse****? He's just saying that there's a chance the bet might win, and of course there is. What is it about "bets like these" that make bookies more money than any single bet? They still have the same edge. If anything a bookie would prefer to take much larger bets on far more likely events, as they have much less liability.

It’s fairly easy. You're right there is a chance that a ten pick accumulator might win. But equally, there is a chance that you might go out, buy a lottery ticket and win. Its pure chance rather than value betting.

These types of accumulator bets are punts pure and simple. While some of the individual bets may be good value on their own, the chance of winning is reduced which each bet which is added to the accumulator as invariably there is always going to be a shock along the way. So all you need is one of the ten bets to go tits up and then you lose. That’s the reason why bookies love them. Because they very, very, rarely pay out on them.

All you need to do is take a look through the start of this thread. No disrespect intended to those who posted but not one winner. A few close ones, but nothing. You could say there are all only small bets but to me it doesn't matter. I hate giving bookies money, no matter how small. I'll take the value single bets at decent odds any day.
