    too confident bout bishopstown

    thanks mate,

    am well clonakilty won the county last year but were an embaressment when they went on to represent cork,drink was prob a major factor though as the game was played like a week after the county final,


    anyway,
    the bet that stands out for me is Bishopstown v St Nicholas in the senior football on the 10th..if any team is going to take the county medal off of favourites nemo rangers it will be bishopstown,they have a good few of cork players and shoould be way too strong,

    i will be lumping on them and cork +12 in a double,both are at odds of 1/3.

    mind you, im very confident of kilbritain and clonakilty winning too,but i will go with,,,

    Bishopstown @1/3 represents value and will win..


    hope it wins for your sake and mine;)

    Bishopstown 0 - 8 St Nicks 0 - 9

    Again your lack of knowledge shines true. Who are the cork players other than Jamie O Sullivan, a rookie corner back??

    Don't be claiming to be an expert in something you are not. I only noticed the comment re btown now by the way so sorry for not bringing it up earlier

    I see I'm not the only one who lost out on Workforce, I lost quite a bit more though. :o Got carried away in the hype for once. Live and learn!

    Best of luck with the bet tomorrow, I think it'll be a solid one hopefully.

    If you want to change the thread title I can do it for you no bothers. :)

    So are you not counting the €125 on bishopstown?

    Mate i have had a pop or two at Coughlan in the passed :p
    But i normally have valid grounds ;)

    If you look at his log cork didn't win the +12 handicap so that bet is already gone...He didn't have anything on the match ...

    a friendly pop no doubt...:p

    ya the money was already gone so had nothing on the bishopstown game..

    you will prob remember me saying that i should be puttting 300 on bishopstown to get back the loss of the 125,but said in the end that i wouldnt because i dont chase losses..

    let that be a lesson to all punters,no matter how confident you are about a selection coming in,you can never be 100% right the whole time..
    if i did chase the loss i would be a further 300 down.thank god im not..


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,014 ✭✭✭dotsflan


    not having a pop coughlan but just if glanman is right about bishopstown only having one county player, maybe in future you should make sure that the facts you are stating are true before you state that they were almost a sure thing.

    but at the end of the day its all a learning curve:)

    no problem dot,i take all postive comments on board,i should of made it clearer that i did not mean only the senior cork panel,just meant cork in general.

    Diarmuid Lester=cork minor
    Roger Ryan=cork minor
    Jamie O’ Sullivan=cork senior
    Ken O’ Halloran=cork senior, he will be corks number 1 next year by all accounts,valley rovers keeper alan quirke is way overrated,,,so there is 2 cork senior panelists.. ;)

    Well thats a load of rubbish because it doesn't make diddly squat of a difference if they have 2 cork minors, neither played. Even the best cork minors in the county don't play senior championship with their club. And saying that you "meant" to include minor is pretty misleading as you did not.

    Jamie is a rookie corner back for Cork, played wing back last night, but should not really influence betting as he is not that type of player. As for Ken, he will not be cork number one next year, he is number 3 this year, just about, and is only on the senior training panel. As for your gripe with Quirke its pretty sad.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,899 ✭✭✭coughlan08


    well i can assure you now that quirke will not be in goal for them next year,
    and ken is the one who played against tyrone and most of the league games while quirke was out..

    you no nothing about quirke,hes one of the most arrogant people around.he talks to all the papers about the biggest load of sh*t..
    he doesnt even socialise with the rest of the valley rovers team.

    he was actually dropped from the starting team against bishopstown in the first round of championship by an 18 year old, because he thought he was above everyone else so didnt bother to train.he was put back in his box that day i can assure you...

    Not too sure if bishopstown are out now or whats the story with the championship down there but no team is going to go very far scoring 8pts. Only lost €15 on them so not too put out. Maybe playing league football at intermediate level wasn't the best preparation.

    Edit: Are Duhallow known as anything else in cork? I see they're 3rd favourites for the cork football senior title but i dont see them anywhere in any of the football league tables...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,899 ✭✭✭coughlan08


    ya bishopstown are gone,major shock as nicks got beaten well by valley rovers..and then bishopstown were 1/20 shots against valley rovers..so it was,sorry that you lost some money,never like to see that happening no matter how small..

    went for this tiny bet,before i wouldnt of bothered to log this kind of stuff but sure theres no harm i spose..said i wouldnt have a bet until friday but this kind of stuff dont count..:p

    Duhallow are a divisional side in cork. They do not play league, (only Beara play league which is strange, this has only started this year). Not sure where you are from so not sure if you understand this division stuff! I'll try explain...

    Cork is broken into eight divisions for the purposes of management, underage and junior levels as cork has so many clubs and is so big, almost 300 clubs AFAIK. So if you are a junior/juvenile team you have to win your division against all your neighbouring clubs, then you get into 1/4 finals with other divisional winners and play off to win county title. Intermediate A and Premier and Senior are played on a county wide basis, no divisional structure.

    Divisional teams compete in senior competition. This means Duhallow enter this, with any player who does not play with a senior club can play with them. It is seen as a way of giving players who are decent a chance of playing senior which they wouldn't get with their club. Most divisions don't take this competition seriously as players don't have an interest as divisions traditionally don't do well. Divisions also do not get a back door.

    In football, Duhallow, along with Carbery (not to be confused with Carbery Rangers, a club team) and to a lesser extent Muskerry make a serious effort for this competition. They train regularly and have a good team spirit. Carbery for example had Graham Canty in their team, Duhallow have Aidan Walsh, Donnacha O Connor (cork seniors) and some other very strong players in their team. They are one of the favourites each year. Carbery players backed themselves last year at something like 100/1 at the start of the season as a motivating factor train hard... I would have been one of the biggest stings in GAA betting ever. They knocked out Nemo, perennial favourites, if I recall correctly last year and they went to become favourites but then got beaten themselves, saving the bookies from losing a fortune, I think they were backed into 6/4 or even shorter.

    Each division would be in with a shout of winning the Cork senior championship if they put out their best players and trained like a club team but this only happens with the ones mentioned above. If a division wins the county, the team they beat, or last remaining club team if two divisions contested the final, would progress to the Munster club championship.

    For the record the divisions in Cork are Avondhu, Duhallow, Imokilly, Beara, Carberry, Seandun (City), Carrigdouhn and Muskerry.

    In hurling, no division is really any good at the moment but they have won it before. Watch out for the colleges too who can play county champ and can have a very good team if they can stay in it over the summer through to the start of the new college year. A lot of KK players go to UCC for example and a lot of Kerry guys go to UCC and CIT too...

    So in summary, Duhallow are pretty strong!

    Ah come on now like... This is after-posting of the highest order... It doesn't matter if you won or lost. Firstly this log is not for playing poker and secondly if you had lost 450 would you have been posting the screen shot, I doubt it but you never know. Great winnings and all that but don't be going off bending the rules for yourself.

    This thread is difficult to understand also. Next to impossible to keep track of the bets as they are in no apparent order. And when losses are incurred, these random in play screen shots or poker screenshots are lashed up to cover all losses.

    I think a good log should consist of the following:

    Bet Number - eg. Bet 10 etc.
    Selection - Prior to the event, ideally a few hours before
    Reasoning - always helps
    Outcome - Bet 10 result
    P+L or ROI or whatever

    After posting - only when connection failures occur, in play etc but should be avoided as it defies the purpose of giving people tips through a log.


  • Registered Users Posts: 528 ✭✭✭Sir Vival


    Great post on Duhallow glanman (im still a bit confused though :rolleyes:) Like do the players play league football with their own junior parishes or something? In roscommon we just have like 12 senior clubs, 12 inter clubs and the rest are junior A/B.

    To Coughlan, great win on the poker. I've played a few free-rolls in the past but just get bored and go all-in with any decent hand. Wouldn't have the skill or know-how to use real money.

    Nice 1st post on boards :rolleyes:, just a bit suspicious that you stumbled across this log on your first time on boards :p Re-registered maybe? :eek::eek::eek:. If you dont like the log, dont read it...

    of course its afterposting,,thats why i provided a screenshot.the point of posting was simple,,that i made 450 in just over an hour,call it boasting if ya want but the reason for the high buy ins was because i built about 100 up the night before from 10 dollar buy ins,,the standard is very poor for the $10 and if you play tight you can make a consistent profit every week..poker is my niche,sports betting comes secound.
    i remember before posting that i made 1560 in about 3 days and was slated for it,just wanted to make sure the same thing didnt happen again.

    point is very valid and correct in a way.
    i wont do it again if asked not to..i just thought ye would like to see me dimolishing the tables..

    welcome to boards,or welcome back..
    will cover everything ive highlighted.

    very hard to pick a bet a couple of hours before the event for obvious reasons,starting team being one of them.if you do your at a disadvantage already..i do try and give reasoning if i can but more often than not wont bother as ive prob spent a good hour or so already researching the bet itself..outcome of the bet is always answered,won,loss....
    i do a profit and loss so in that way its fine..

    look if im being honest i dont care if the log in your eyes is all over the place the fact of the matter is im withdrawing another couple of hundred today and there is not many other logs that are doing that on a consistent basis..so in my eyes the log is doing the job very nicely..

    i aint giving tips there just my selections/bets,,btw the poker winnings have nothing to do with contributing to the log.
    all the best

    I'm a new member. I often use other forums, but decided to join boards, as I have been following it over the summer.

    I just think the log could be greatly improved - keep track of the bets, cut back on the all mighty screenshot to cover all losses etc - only an observation.

    I have no doubt that your hunger for the bet would match that bulbous cartoon fellow who mooches hamburgers from Popeye, and your desire for the George Washington green back is unrelenting.

    But if you are going to disclose your well gotten gains via withdrawals and expect the 'well done old boy' pat on the back, I think you need to maintain credibility - by conducting a transparent log


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,899 ✭✭✭coughlan08


    im compared to a popeye character,,i luved that show....:D
    well after the withdrawel i will try and make the new one "better".
    but better in my eyes just means a more profitable log..;)

    btw i never provided an after timing screen shot to cover all losses,,,they were never counted towards the log p/l

    Play a bit online on FullTilt, usually just freerolls though, tried my hand with PaddyPower poker and there's something about it I don't like. Play a good bit with a free mates and one of these Mondays going to chance my arm down in the casino.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,899 ✭✭✭coughlan08


    just got back from the bookies..got awful looks from the regulars who literally live in there,betting €5,10 on every race...:rolleyes:

    i actually withdrew €1000,pokr winnings made up the difference(extra bit)

    first log had €871 profit
    during the world cup €1200 profit,(all logged in other treads)
    and so far sense the start of july €926.93 profit,which was withdrawn today..
    sense posting my bets on boards i have never made a loss..the log has played a massive role in contributing to that profit,,no doubt i would be struggling still betting on the south american corner market at 3.30am if it wasnt for it,,:pac:and also the support/confedence that was gained here.
    so thanks..;)

    im starting off with a balance of €500 again and we will see how things go,wont be that active for maybe a week because of the weddn but will do the best..

    to gavin...tryed a few tournaments,celtic tour being one of them..but only for a month or so,,but with no success, completly different ball game,to that of the internet...also played with the lads and maybe the odd poor standard pub game.
    fulltilt poker: has a very nice layout but play at pp,,i find the standard there a lot worse than others,although there is no rake back which is a bit of a disaster,,it all adds up like.....best of luck that monday..play tight in a .50/1 cash game and you should be up come closing..;)

    Just for the record your Roi for poker is -9% and your total profit is -$684 ! Hardly demolishing the tables !

    Figures are calculated by checking your online poker stats. Surely your checking up on the stats of the opponents your playing?
