    Went for the Bet 365 50 free bet last night -

    First 50 - Corner before 10minute at 8/15

    In play bet Chelsea to win on penalties 40/1

    First time my pre game bet won in ages! Happy days

    returned 76.33 and the money back on the inplay bet so small profit.

    Betting that 26.33 on first corner in United/Liverpool before 10, first corner Shakhtar/Anderlecht before 10, first corner Dortmund/Spurs before 10 - Treble on that.

    F**k Liverpool and United!

    Ok time to spice things up a bit here, been very inactive over the last few months and the baseball season is coming up. To be honest I've been putting ALOT of time into baseball. It was my bread and butter for the last ten years and last year was a really big disappointment for me leaving me with a losing year that sort of balanced out through the playoffs.

    I'm going to be going hard on March madness in NCAA Basketball and am getting ready for the Baseball season. Last year my pre season picks were so and so. I did have the Mets at 66/1 so was close to a big cash on that one. Hopefully this year we can go one step better :)

    One bet for tonight - taking Leicester City to win, take over 5 corners and there to be over 20 match booking points in the game - 100

    So I have a little challenge set for myself - I want to turn €300 into €3500 in less than two months. The reality is I am far more likely to lose the entire €300 but I am going to give it a shot.

    First bet tonight:

    €20 - Astos's , Tigers, BJays, Mets, Cubs and Ranger all to win

    €50 on Mets & Cubs to win

    going to be a challenge :D:D:D

    Struggled of late, to be honest Baseball pretty much kicked my ass this season. An overall ROI of -18% over the season has left me pretty much guaranteed a second losing baseball regular season in a row.

    Have had some very lucky success in weeks 1 & 2 in the NFL. Including a seven fold that needed the Chiefs comeback win.

    For this week though I've a couple of road dogs that look really tasty in my opinion -

    Houston -2.5, Broncos +3.5 , and the Giants & Cowboys moneyline double.

    think the above 4 look really sweet and will be buying in on an accy for them.

    Going to log all the bets for 10 weeks starting with a roll of 1000 for ten weeks. Each Unit is representive of 10 in this log.

    3 Units - Cards, Giants, Dolphins, Steelers, Seahawks all money line

    2 Units - Houston -2.5, Broncos +3.5, Cards -5

    1 Unit - Vikings +7, Falcons M/l, Lions +8, Chiefs -2.5 , Ravens M/l

    I like the look of next week's fixtures hopefully can bring in some more cash.

    Team to win the game, ie no point spread (handicap)


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,380 ✭✭✭The Reservoir Dubs Anchorman

    as explained by GUFC its the team to win outright. So m/l would be moneyline in abreviations and p/s would be point spread.

    I've taken the points on the 3 Unit bet as I believe those games could move against me before the weekend.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,380 ✭✭✭The Reservoir Dubs Anchorman


    A little side bet here putting 10 Units on the Chargers to win the AFC West at 40/1.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,380 ✭✭✭The Reservoir Dubs Anchorman


    Bank: 1515

    5 Unit - Patriots, Titans, Steelers, Bills and Cardinals all m/l return 0

    50c Accy and Elevenfolds - Chargers, Ravens, Pats, Titans , Bears, Lions, Chiefs, Falcons, Cowboys, Colts, Cardinals all on the handicaps return 0

    3 Unit - Falcons, Cowboys, Ravens on the handicap return 97.20

    1 Unit (trebles & Accy) - Falcons, Cowboys, Redskins, Colts moneyline return 0

    Frustrating day to be honest. Steelers obviously letting down the big 5 Unit bet and the Ravens pushing with the Giants on the early handicap line left that 3 Unit bet a winner with one push.

    The Falcons and Colts moneyline losers were painful that would have been a massive payout if both hit and big enough payout if only one hit. Really gutted. Overall a losing weekend.

    Staked: 13.6 Units

    Return: 9.7 Units

    Bank: 1476

    Very frustrated. Putting some faith in the Cardinals tonight:

    2 Units: David Johnson 100+ yards/Arizona to win (6/4)

    4 Units: Arizona to win and over 47.5 points (6/5)

    1 Unit: Jaron Brown anytime/Arizona to win (4/1)

    .5 Unit: Jaron Brown 2 or more TD's (40/1)

    .25 Unit: Jaron Brown 3 or more TD's (275/1)

    .5 Unit; Jaron Brown 1st Td/Arizona to win (22/1)

    And before anyone says anything yes I am sort of chasing on this game and not so much chasing as absolutely gutted. I fell asleep last night during the Colts game which denied me the chance to hedge on the trebs.. anyway very frustrating weekend!

    Hi Mate any chance you could put in what handicap lines your on as followed your bets but only had the ravens +3 so got no push on that which has given me a full loss for the weekend

    Meh .. should have just went with Johnson .. :)

    Staked 8.25 returned 5 Units

    Bank: 1443.5

    Felt like a bigger loss than it was, I though Brown would go off as the No.1 rush defence would stifle Johnson, obviously that didn't happen. But I'll keep an eye on Brown as Palmer and him seem to have picked up some chemistry this season.

    I took +4 but the line opened at +3.5/+4 in some places range again was 10/11 to 4/5.

    If you backed it later in the week the line was only +3 or +2.5 depending on where you went. I did mention that I thought the lines would move against me.Atlanta opened +6.5 and moved in to +5.5 and the Cowboys opened +7.5 in places and again I think finished +5.5.

    I'll stick up the handicaps on what I take today. Some of it will be Vegas lines, some Pinnacle and very occasionally PP/BET365
