    I can see Sunderland v Villa as your party pooper there and > 1.5 should be evens for this match. 1.33 is a joke tbh but good luck :)

    Villa have scored on average 2 goals in their away matches this season.
    Sunderland have scored on average 1 on average.
    How do you figure >than 1.5 should be evens?


    --- Match finished 1-1 ;)

    James that was unlucky. I had them in my accum as well but my winnings were nowhere near what you could have won. Arse holes!

    By the way is it too late for me to join the league??


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,772 ✭✭✭jameshayes


    i think everyone is losing money so I think we should start a new one every month - eg. everyone starts with a new 20quid on the first of every month - or the first monday of each month.. (could get confusing with weekend matchs)

    Gambling is ruthless fella. I'm pretending i've 20k rather than 20 euro ;) It helps my decisions.

    In the words of the great rudyard kipling
    If you can make one heap of all your winnings
    And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
    And lose, and start again at your beginnings
    And never breath a word about your loss;
    ......
    Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
    And--which is more--you'll be a Man, my son!

    I want this engraved on my headstone ;)

    The rules say you have to back at least 4 teams in the accumulator. So far i've done

    Man united 1/10 Win
    Rangers 4/11 Win

    now my money is going onto Juventus @ 2/9. If i get to 4 i will stop and start again. How much will i start with next time??? I'l cross that bridge when i come to it.

    I think the accumulator you are thinking of is slightly different than the one we are thinking of.

    A normal betting accumulator is an amalgamation of odds for a select number of bets, eg. Man U, Rangers & Juventus have to win for you to get your money - all in the same bet. E.G if one doesn't win you don’t get any money.

    Yeah i know that mate. I started off betting with 1. Then United won so i got back 1.10, then i bet 1.10 on Ranger who won. I got back 1.50 for that outcome and now my 1.50 is going onto Juventus. It's the exact same as everbody else but i'm spreading my accumulator over longer periods of time rather than doing them on one day. So if i manage to get four correct results i'm free to start again. Hopefully i get my four picks by the end of the month :D

    Dun Laoire its not that hard to pick 4 teams together.
    Can you not just pick 4 and put €1 on them ?

    Irishmike if it was easy we'd be all loaded. Look at it this way. Who's the only person with profit?? I rest my case. I know it's only a game but i'm accumulating them so i cant see what the problem is.
