    Have a 1 euro 10-fold accumulator on the Premier League. 9 out of 9 so far with Villa to play at home tonight against Hull.....i'm feeling lucky! I'm set to win 662 euro with Bet 365 giving a 60% bonus with 10-fold accumulators; meaning i've got 1060 euro resting on Villa not screwing up.

    very nice indeed the bolton game ****ed me up

    cant see a hull win what so ever but maybe a draw thou

    I still think you'll win that bet

    very nice bet gnolan good luck with it.

    if l were you I'd open a betfair account and lay aston villa at 4/7

    or less hassle maybe go into william hill and put say €200 on hull +1 goal at 6/4 .

    that way if hull win or draw u will get back €500 from hills (€300 profit)

    or if villa win u will still win €800 which is still a very nice win for €1 stake.

    Seems like a sensible idea, but i'm very much an all or nothing kind of fella!

    Excellent! The draw in there makes it look all the more impressive.

    Good luck mate ill be cheering on villa for you ! just a quick question how did you take a screenshot of that bet ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,484 ✭✭✭gnolan


    To be fair, the wigan bolton game was probably the trickiest of them all, all others threw up no surprises. Probably the west ham games was the only other one which could have gone either way.

    Bet365 have "Hull or Draw" at 5/4 at the moment, i am tempted to put 100 down just to cushion the blow if the unthinkable should happen

    Actually, that was an awkward backstard of a thing to do. I pressed Alt and Prt Scr, then went into MS Paint, right-click and paste, and then crop the image. Anyone know how to embed the image rather than have it as an attachment?


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,423 ✭✭✭✭Bobeagleburger


    Villa are pretty poor at home. I reckon Hull will snatch a draw at least.


    OP, I'd lay Villa without a doubt.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,924 ✭✭✭shoutman


    Villa haven't won in the past 10 games, but that said Hull are also on horrid form.

    Lay Villa. Then you'll definitely come out ahead.

    Good bet OP, wish I'd gone for that, though I'd probably have left out a couple (Villa not being one of them)

    Good luck with it !


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 159 ✭✭gary nevillevil


    jeez hope villa do it for you, as you pointed out definitely take that "hull or draw" and your a win win, ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,583 ✭✭✭✭kippy


    Best of luck man, really hope Villa do it. On paper they should, on form though and the need for hull to win more its a bit more ropey.
    Come on the Villa!

    Accu's have let me down all the time lately, [apart from the horses] usually one team.

    unreal.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,421 ✭✭✭weemcd


    Im defiantly in the opinion that the OP should lay villa, gonna be up either way

    http://www.oddschecker.com/betting-tools/hedging-calculator.html

    By my calculations (10 fold bonus aside not included) you should lay villa at roughly £370 to guarantee urself a profit of 350.

    For God's sake dont take my word as gospel though.

    op must be ****ting himself :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,340 ✭✭✭✭Collie D


    Was in this position last week. Waiting for Newcastle for €870. Couldn't see Pompey wining so backed the draw thankfuly. Wouldn't depend on Newcastle for €8.70 neverminf €870. Think you should take the 6/4 about Hull +1. Not even to even stakes if you are confident about Villa. Maybe just to win two or three hundred. You'd still be up about eight if Villa win. A good return for a euro in my book ;o)


  • Registered Users Posts: 283 ✭✭Trafford Lad


    Best of luck, my friend is waiting on a Villa win as well...Wycombe let me down in my main bet :mad:.
