Carlow 2/5

There are two stupid prices in there in Douglas and avondhu and I normally wouldn't touch anything over 1/5 for a gaa accum but those 2 together make it and I can't stress enough that those 2 coupled should be 1/500 not 1/5

So in total that accum ends up at 5/2 so hopefully we can follow up from last weekends success.

As for singles

Newcestown at 11/8
Muskerry at 21/10

Both well worth a go. Bandon going poor and depleted 21/10 looks big on muskerry even taking the chance in them being a division against a club.

Will post any more info I get, I like the 5/2 shot this week.

May aswell add ucc to that 5/2 accum, best price 1/2 at the moment, not sure does that fit in with the bookies providing the 5/2 but if so makes it over 4/1.

Few quid for London in the hurling.
Handicaps in the different bookies are interesting.

Ballyporeen 5/6 , Bally are a Football Club with games played in the League and a lot of Friendlies played lately while Upperchurch concentrate mainly on the hurley bat and will have very little Football played this year . Also throw in Moyle Rovers 8/15 for the Double , plenty of County players including Liam Boland who kicked 4-5 points this evening in a friendly for Tipp v Galway !

Bally down 4 points after 5 minutes but rallied and pulled well ahead with 10 to go . The Church finished strong and got to within a point :P , but Bally held on !

Douglas lose by two aswell

accumulators crack me up, if you want bit fun fine, but if your serious to make few quid, you got play the value in singles, plenty good bets being offered here but its certainly not backing 1/10 shots that are 1/8 shots

Instead of picking out flaws, after the event, in other posters picks.

I wasn't picking out flaws, I have given tips which didn't come off in the past. I was just wondering how a team that were 1/10 ended up losing so heavily.

Just shows the unpredictability of club matches.

But that's not very different to aftertiming.

Nothing wrong with saying you think 1/10 is a poor price because x,y, z before a game but after just looks like schadenfreude regardless of the inten

Just after seeing on the Red Fm Twitter feed that at one stage an Avondhu player went off injured and they had nobody to replace him, and this was the first half. No wonder they didn't win.
Divisional teams can be very hit and miss.

The only trouble is you need to bet more on singles to get any kind of profit.One accumulator coming off can give a very sizeable profit, hard to pull off a big accumulator I'll admit

Well that's true but essentially just means betting on singles is not a get-rich-quick scheme, which it isn't.

It's more likely to be a 'make money over time' operation however than the slow bleed of mad accumulators where we add various '1/10 shots that should be 1/8 shots' as mentioned in some hope of creating a better price.

Ironically the bookies are absolutely creaming themselves when we do this because they are really not getting that much of an edge on us even when pick a single at a bad price, but when we accumulate them we are multiplying their edge for them. This is why you will basically never see your account get limited while you are rolling with accumulators.

Incidentally the multiplying edge thing can work in our favour as well, but only when we are able to confidently accumulate good priced singles (i.e. singles with an edge in our favour).

Adding in short priced favourites willy-nilly to beef up the price is the ultimate mug's move.

Keanes post above, could not be more accurate, superbly summarised viewpoint on what betting should be. Ignore the returns and focus on your edge. 
My best example would be, fancy value on two teams lets see A at evens and B at evens (I think both should be 4/6 or so). The if I can find both at evens in same book and double then thats fine.
The key point to been negative on accum's is when non value (or edge) bets get mixed in negating any edge I had.

Re the above : Any fella posting in picks which are 1/10 but "cannot stress enough how they should be 1/500" deserves a bit of stick. Add to that the two picks "which should be 1/500" dont win but lose fairly soundly. I dont back the picks in here but would read from time to time, think its fair to say that fellas were shown up.
