    Nice one.
    Fair play OP.

    As a side note did anyone read Kevin Pullein's article in the Post today about hedging out on bets??

    Basically he was saying that as long as you're satisfied that you are on at the right price you should always leave the bet stand; unless it is a life changing sum of money.

    Cant find a link online atm.

    Well lads, back after getting sh1tfaced in town! Good night! Just so you know, i put 80 euro lay on villa at 5/4 so woulda come away with 100 profit; but then bet365 gave me a free 80 euro bet on top of that; so that went on Villa winning after the first half and hull to win outright which woulda net me 4000 euro.

    But as you know Villa scraped it, lucky bastards. Bloody delighted though, and glad i just put down the 100 against villa. Think i'm gonna have a rough day tomorrow though....

    I don't use the rolly eyes smiley lightly as I really don't like it but allow the lad celebrate whatever way he wishes ffs :rolleyes:

    Congrats OP.

    As a forum moderator who has given you a platform to boast I feel it's only fair that a percentage of your winnings is deposited to my account. We'll make it an even 50%.

    Well if you're a seasoned gambler putting decent money on then it's probably sound advice alright. For a big one Euro accumulater fun bet with one match to go, i'd always say hedge it.

    I think his comment was more a celebration of the Irish way rather than a criticism. You may have wasted a rare rolleyes on this one.

    is it just me or does that seem like a sh!t return - predictin 10 selections all right and only gettin 668 or whatever it was...

    668-1

    Thats not too bad for 10 football selections. Granted its extremely difficult to get 10 but I think thats not too bad. He may have been able to get better odds elsewhere.

    It is and it isn't. It just so happens that this weeks results were somewhat easier than other weeks to predict, with the expected winners winning, and the ten matches really only have two tricky ones in there

    Whereas this week i've got another 1 euro 10-fold at 5800-1

    Ok those odds are ludicrous. I have to ask... What teams?

    Off the top of my head:

    Arsenal beat Chelsea
    Utd beat City
    Liverpool beat West Ham??
    Fulham Draw Villa
    Everton beat Tottenham??
    Blackburn Draw Portsmouth
    Hull beat Stoke
    Wigan beat West Brom
    Newcastle beat Middlesbrough
    Bolton beat Sunderland?? - possibly draw

    Not so outlandish like a malfunction!
