Hedged my 5/1 £100 bet for City to win the title by putting £200 on Man Utd to win the title, guaranteeing that I win approx £300. :notbad:

 

:thup: Respect

 

I take it that bet is too late now? :lol:

 

If you fancy Newcastle to get something today, probably not. If you bet on Man Utd now, if we get something today, Man City will be well over evens before kick-off vs Swansea.

 

Yeah. I'll be honest, I was tempting to let it run but it would have felt wrong to feel good about us losing or drawing today. We need a win and I want my wallet to agree with my heart. This way, no matter what, I'll win money. I'll win a bit more if Man Utd win so I need us to win today.

Been reading about betting rules and shit. Still trying to understand the Trixie, patent and crap. For example, a Trixie -

 

"A Trixie consists of 4 bets involving 3 selections in different events. The bet includes 3 doubles and 1 treble. A minimum of 2 of your selections must be successful to get a return."

 

A Trixie consists of 4 bets? Are those 4 separate bet slips (consisting of whatever amount of doubles, trebles, etc)  that has to be purchased or what? And if I get 2 of them correctly, I win?

 

 

A trixie is four separate bets.

 

So if you choose teams A, B and C to win, the trixie will be:

 

A&B

A&C

B&C

A&B&C

 

That's it really.

 

Oh, I get it now. :facepalm:

 

Thanks, dude. Went for the same trixie as you. (Only staked £2, mind.)

 

Our trixie, man! :D

I'm still trying to get my head round something here...... if just one successful result from a "patent" guarantees to give you a return, how did I make a loss on my current patent bet? (which has one successful result)

 

'the fuck with me?! :rant:

The £2 got split on 3 slips? If so you've won 67p x the odds on Fulham + QPR.

 

bought 1 trixie and 2 patents, all of the them separate bets on separate slips. (that's what I intended anyway.)

 

2 results on the trixie

1 results in both of the patents

 

but I've still made a loss! (all of the bets had a returns of something like £20, £30, £40, etc. )

Here's one example of one of the patents that I bought -

I don't remember how much this was meant to return me, but it was definitely more than the 49p!

Ok, so if I buy a patent for those 3 games, and stake £1 (x 7lines), that would return me - "£27.05".

 

How exactly would I receive the full £27.05 amount? Do I need for all three results to happen, or what?

 

I assumed one result should get you all of the amount. (£27.5.)

(It did sound a bit too good to be true, to be fair! :lol:)

Fuck sake, how's that any different from making a single bet, then?  :rant: :lol: I thought one result in a patent will get you the "returns"?

 

:blush:

Why on earth would that work? :lol:

They are ways to make several singles/doubles/triples easier. I don't see how this is hard to understand tbh :lol:

Yes, you'd need all three results to go in for the full winnings. That means you win on all the singles, all the doubles and the treble. You might make a profit if two comes in (depending on which two and the odds, I can't be arsed with your weird way of writing odds), if just one result comes in you'll make a little money back from that single.

I think I might get the hang of it in few days time. (It happened with the odds thing.)
