Yah, I was pointed in the direction of the Asian Handicap earlier.

Didn't do me much good last night

Oops only scanned through the thread, didn't mean to bring up the bad memories again

Can anyone explain to me how the odds work for things like the asian handicap etc? where they have "1.23" etc, as opposed to say 7/1.

Those odds are in decimals - it effectively states what you get for a single €1 stake - ie for a €1 stake at those odds you would get €1.23 back in total (profit of .23c). 2.50 = 6-4 in traditional odds etc.

I went for 2 doubles for the weeked:

Coventry @ 11-10 and arsenal (- 1 goal) @ 4-7
and
Cheltenham @ 11-10 and Rangers @ 4-6

if newcastle were at home id agree with ya but their away so imo it's well dodgy

and losing their best defender doesnt help either

mike65

hey Redzer do a fourfolds bet, if they all win you're still happy but if one fails you'll get your 10 back plus or minus a euro.

To be honest when i heard United were without their two choice centre halves i thought Burnley might do it.
Think there will be a few draws this weekend. Everton may be happy for a point after the pasting they got last week. And Birmingham and Stoke maybe another draw to do if you thinking of doing an accumulator

Instant Karma

I've got a couple of trixies up in the last week or so, and my PP account that was languishing around the 2 quid mark is now a lot more healthy at 21.00 after another win on a single Spain to beat the swiss @ beach football.

Havent decided on my bets tommorow yet but I dont fancy Utd against Wigan nor Cardiff.

Thats not true
your team has to win to progress if they draw your out (except for one week when you can opt for a win and a draw)

Sorry i did comp last year. All your team had to do was draw or win to go through. Talking about PP online. have rules changed since?

I did Paddy Power ( I assume thats what PP means) from the 4th tournament last year and the first tournament this year both of which had the win or your out rule now while its possible for the first few tournaments had lose and your out for a long time now its win or your out.

Just a thought for Liverpool v Villa

Gerrard has scored more goals against them than any other team.

Dont be at yourself

It's Anfield, Torres is a cert to score.

OPENROAD

Nice little win, Arsenal -2 goals @ 13/10 , 23 Euro back

Cheltenham and Bury let me down today on the accum.. bah

stevoxbx

put on a 20euro accumulator:

arsenal win @1/5
man city win @1/3
man utd win @1/2
birmingham vs stoke draw @11/5

everton win @11/10
chelsea win @8/15
liverpool win @4/9

First 4 are in.
How much would my bet be worth now?
I dont see much problems with the remaining teams but who knows

a super villain



Fourfold Accumulator: A Four-fold accumulator is one bet on four selections in different events. All four selections must be successful to have a return.

Fivefold Accumulator: A Fivefold accumulator is one bet on five selections. All five selections must be successful to have a return.

and so on

I think it said "minimum odds of 17/1" on a Boyles pools ticket for 9 homes wins. Would this be correct? I'm waiting on a Liverpool home win tonight.

Poor decision for penalty. Even worse penalty.
