    Yea i lost 20 but got it back there


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,978 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    I lost 50 as I lost concentration and accidently bet on the wrong man! Recovered some of it but annoyed at that. Roll on Barney.

    Anyone using the standard Betfair site to bet in running is completely mad! the odds dont refresh quick enough. Simply download Bet Trader or Bet Angel (both basic models are free).

    I had the live feed above and still got it badly wrong as the 33/1 against chappie won two legs on the bounce. I did'nt get the chance to repair the damage cos the odds for a Barney leg win were so short.

    Back to football. I understand that and its not so fast moving!

    Lol so much for your lack of knowledge on darts Mike :D
    Seem to be taking to it like a duck to water ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,978 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    I did'nt though, I took a big bath on Barneys lack of incisive finishing, then compounded my error today. I'm off the darts.

    Would have bet on more games only paddypower took a lifetime to pay out on the betting in running after the 2nd set.

    My only loss was on a frame that baxter was not throwing first but he had won 3 in a row so i thought he would win it.
    He obviously didnt :D

    Made €11.40 on McArthur winning a leg! Backed him at 5's but layed it off. €11.40 is not bad for 2 mins work

    Lol i backed wade to win every leg at 2-5
    He won 9 out of 10
    :D
    Made about €60

    Part should beat losper easy enough so gonna have a crack at making some money on that too


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 12,802 Mod ✭✭✭✭Keano


    This Darts lark is great! Just backed Losper to win the last leg!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,978 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    So what about Mark Dudbridge v Steve Hine ?

    After two sets, anyone who is betting on this is mad.

    Mike.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,698 ✭✭✭IrishMike


    Stopped after Losper and part.
    Had to head out.
    12 bets 11 winners, 240 euro profit
    Nice nights work


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,680 ✭✭✭green123


    just to be clear
    are you just betting on them to win the leg they throw first in ?

    Thats what I was doing. But in one sided matches generally backing the stronger player to win every leg can be profitable

    Yeah mostly doing that.
    Depends on the game.
    If the underdog is playing well i sometimes back him to win the leg he is throwing
    first on as its normally good odds ie evens

    Can be a very profitable sport to back.
    Plus the legs take a minute or 2 so you have the result in no time :)


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


    Ok, I had my doubts, but i gave it ago today!

    Holy jayzuz! i'm up about 30 euro already!


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


    Honestly, this is ridiculas! how much money are PP losing??!?!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,698 ✭✭✭IrishMike


    Tell me about it.
    Made about €200 on part vs wade today.
    Its money for nothing if you are willing to stake a decent amount.

    I dunno, lost a bit the other night, barney had flu apparently but loads of legs against the thrower, probably less chance for easy pickings in the latter stages....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,978 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    Phil Taylor can make you rich! Just pocketed on two legs, I'm only betting on Taylor legs

    All change! Mardle has woken up and has won the 4th set. Luckily I was too busy watching to bet.

    Mike

    Gonna do the same, see how it goes. Getting 1/3 on his legs


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,494 ✭✭✭m.j.w


    Just lost 50 on that leg


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,978 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    As I edited above Mardle has sudddenly hit some form, Taylor is'nt at his best still.

    Mike.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,978 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    All change!!! Taylor is crumbling round the edges. I'm not betting anymore, each leg could go either way.

    Mike.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 12,802 Mod ✭✭✭✭Keano


    Way too close to call. Taylor is an awesome player who for the last 10 years could hit a double with his eyes closed! Not this year.

    He just missed a double 2 to hand Mardle the set

    Its down to the deciding set...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 545 ✭✭✭cgf


    Yep - it's a tight one - Mardle just missed 3 at double top to break in 1st leg of final set,


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,783 ✭✭✭Pj!


    Great match though!
