    Interesting challenge, and with low risk. Might give it a go myself next week!

    Good luck Mike.

    Thats very annoying. Was quite confident with that one. Came up 3 points short on the points total thanks to a scoreless 1st quarter and a missed field goal at the end of the 1st half - mostly thanks to a well played timeout by the Bengals. That was when i went to bed! Surprised the Jets beat the -10 spread which brought in a separate bet for me but this one is gone for now.

    Think i'll try this out again - i like the low risk involved.

    Right starting again

    13:25 HANDICAP (0-70) 5f (LING) Clear Praise Insured bet 2.37 (so if it doesn't win but is placed I get the stake back)

    That didn't last long :(

    I'll stick to the footie for this challange I think.

    I think the idea behind this thread is to make evens bets (or close enough) each time - with the goal being to get 10 right, for example, resulting in a profit of €1000+.
