    Wolves win with cleansheet
    Bognor Regis
    Barrow
    Rotherham
    Burton Albion
    @ 170/1

    Overs

    Ipswich v West Brom
    Reading v Portsmouth
    Man Utd v Birmingham
    Southampton v Watford
    Histon v Cambridge
    Charlton V Colchester
    @ 28/1


    Villa Spurs is a no bet for me for now. Barca v Madrid was supposed to be a goal fest and look what happened there. Under 2.5 has gone from 11/10 to evens I notice.

    My picks for today 30 treble

    everton to win boro - 5/4
    portsmouth to win reading - 8/5
    villa and spurs to draw - 11/5 (can really see this being a stalemate of a game)

    I've picked two trebles - Arsenal in one of them, come the rest!

    About f@cking time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Both my trebles came in at about 3/1 and I put 30 on each.

    I was in serious do-do having blown 80 on Fulham/Chelsea to be a 4 goal game but now I'm up again.

    Mike.


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


    Treble for tomorrow

    Dundee - Hearts
    Hamilton - Qn of the Sth
    Cowdenbeath v Raith Rovers

    This not very high risk bet will get you 6/1, even win/draw returns 5/2

    Mike.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 244 ✭✭paulizei


    Nice wins mike65. Not a good day for me apart from Fulham result. My main pick lost, just when I thought York's 3 goals in 3 minutes saved me a good combo.


    Mine tomorrow, singles and a treble.

    Aberdeen v Inverness CT. (Aberdeen @ 4/5, great home record and a class above Inverness).
    Hamilton v Queen of South. (Hamilton @ 8/15, 1 or 2 nil, plastic pitch nobody else can play on properly.)
    Livingston v Dunfermline. (Dunfermline @ 6/4, new manager, good players starting to play).

    For me today:

    1 Aston Villa v Tottenham - Over/Under 2.5 goals (Backing Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.88)
    2 Man Utd v Birmingham - Half Time/Full time (Backing Man Utd/Man Utd @ 1.64)
    3 Middlesbrough v Everton (Backing Everton @ 2.51)

    Done a treble and 3 doubles.

    Good luck to all.

    Cha-ching again :cool:

    oops! (if you bet on a draw)

    ErinGoBrath you must have been getting a little worried given the way the game unfolded.

    I was on 1-1 actually, slapped some cash on over 2.5 as soon as Defoe scored. So win/win. Anyone backing a draw would have done the same. Well almost anyone heh.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,454 ✭✭✭hf4z6sqo7vjngi


    Bah, Villa Spurs draw out the window, terrible defending on the setpiece for villas 2nd goal a 5ft6 guy marking a 6ft1 guy had goal written all over it before the corner was taken.:mad:

    Maybe you should've done what I did after Defoe's goal went in so you'd be reasonably well up no matter what happened. Hard luck anyhow. Congrats to anyone who was on overs. ;)

    That appoach while obvious requires a decent float in the PP kitty. I'm sure many of us are betting with no-fallback cash.

    Yeah it depends I suppose. I try to do it whenever possible though.

    My selections for tomorrow.

    Ipswich v West Brom
    Backing West Brom @ 2.5
    Ipswich have a great record at home with no losses and only 2 draws from 12 games but I think West Brom are best placed to test that record.

    Southampton v Watford
    Backing Draw @ 3.33
    Watford are on a bad run but I think they can take something from Southampton – I don’t think it’ll be 3 points though

    Bristol City v Coventry
    Backing Bristol City @ 1.86
    Although Bristol City have lost their last 2 (both away from home) I think they’ll have too much for Coventry and at the price I think they’re a really good bet.

    €25 treble pays €365.25

    Bloody hell, how wrong can a man be :D

    You could back the win and draw (for Bolton & Blackburn) but it'd be overly complicated.

    Doesn't help your case either that the two remaining matches are on at the same time. Be brave and let it ride, you've covered you stake already man.

    He who dares Rodney, he who dares...

    I think PP is only covering Bolton v Derby live so I'd keep an eye on both matches in betfair's in game betting. If Sunderland or Derby go 1 or even 2 up at any point, I'd lay them to at least cover the initial stake, as the odds on Blackburn or Bolton win/draw will be a lot more favourable. If you're on for a big win, sacrificing a little bit of profit in order to guarantee a return doesn't hurt.

    I think Bolton will destroy Derby mind.


    Not so sure about Aberdeen now, lots of key players out and Inverness scoring plenty.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 662 ✭✭✭JæKæ


    Goin' for a treble on Newcastle, Liverpool and Bolton

    Bolton v Derby Match Odds:
    Bolton 1.5 - Matched
    Liverpool v Wigan Match Odds:
    Liverpool 1.22 - Matched
    Newcastle v Man City Match Odds:
    Newcastle 2.27 - Matched

    I did a €3 patent on the 3 teams and all 3 teams winning will net me atleast €1000,so should I try cover myself

    Both teams regularly score & concede, I would go for a 2-1 win to Aberdeen.


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


    Thats approx 9.7 on betfair

    Tis true however the remaining two teams are long shots to it's still highly unlikely it'll happen. If it was two in waiting on one team then it'd make sense to lay off some of the bet.

    Unless one of the remaining teams goes two up early in running you'll be struggling to lay this bet off easily.

    I'm seriously thinking of including Inverness in a treble.

    Depending on starting 11s Bolton/Liverpool/Inverness (7/1)
    and a back up treble of Hamilton/Dundee (and draw) (Noel Hunt scored twice on 26th)/Raith. 7/2

    Mike.

    Inverness have a good home record but away from home I think Aberdeen will beat them
