btts and match result from sunday.

man united
spurs
celtic
city

128/1

so close.

@IdleHans the lower leagues are actually quite predictable although lincoln lost a game tonight my 14/1 pre season bet for them to win the league is still looking strong - shame i doubled it up with ebbsfleet as they are currently 2nd to maidenhead but do face each other 2nd last game of the season.

West Ham have ruined me

Arsenal, Chelsea, Southampton & Spurs
4 fold - win and both teams to score
140/1

Had a double for £5.

Palace to beat Liverpool and Leicester to beat Arsenal.

Would return £220 if Leicester win.. 0-0 after 53 mins, anyone know how the game looks and should I cash out for £22 now instead!

Happily my bad advice came too late. What did you do?

Shirty5 - I always go for the Paddy Power top goal scorer deal at the start of the season. Had 5 bets this year @ £12.50 e/w (top 6 places); Lukaku, Aguero, Kane, Ibrahimavic and Mahrez. Was looking good for 4 out of 5 paying out (£220 for Lukaku alone) until Ibrahimavic got injured but still looking like £300 for the other 3........plus will have had over 75 free £2 bets throughout the season. I recommend it to everyone to have an interest throughout the season.

My pre season bet this year is nearly in, fingers crossed

Wednesday top 6
QPR bottom half
Burnley to stay up
Hull to go down

Just waiting on Hull, can't believe I'll be cheering on Palace tomorrow.

Last week I had a 14 fold, it would've paid out £937.56 but one team let me down.. Juventus at home to Torino

I felt like crying, ended up with £80 instead

Gutting, but I got done head for £16k on the last leg a horse racing accumulator last July.
I noticed the same horse was running last Saturday, so recouped a bit with a winning bet of £10 at 9/2 !

Only £15,945 to go. Keep going mate.

came very close to landing a couple of huge over 2.5 goals accys, for tiny stakes you can get massive returns,

14p on a 16 fold returned £2,879 was 3 goals away

7p on a 12 fold was 1 goal away in the sudanese premier league, unfortunately because they dont offer live betting no cash out was available bloody 1-1 draw return would of been £1,257.60!!!. and all other legs had won.

A lot of them lay out so many bets, that you need a small fortune to bank roll them, as a bit of research i tracked there NAP of the day on the horses over a 2month period, after hypothetically placing a £10.00 bet on each one the net result was a loss of just over £260.00. the naps are usually a short price anyway, so unless your putting on big its not worth it. the evens challenge is another one they do even that you could probably pick out yourself.

Anyone use any 'tipster'. I always see loads advertising on facebook /Twitter and they all claim to have made lots of profit . I assume they're all crap?

Anyone ever found a decent 1?

If these 'tipsters' were real, they wouldn't need to charge people for their tips cos they'd make enough off their own bets.

True in 90% of cases. However, most pro punters have had all their accounts either closed or restricted to 10p bets (so bookies can say that they don't close accounts) and Betfair doesn't have the liquidity to back/lay on weak markets without adversely affecting the price. Which is why they use Commission Agents to place those bets but the bookmakers networks and technology makes that hard to do too.

Best to buy the Racing and Football Outlook every Tuesday and follow one of the many pundits in there.

Also buy a copy of the Racing Post on the first Tuesday of August for season predictions
