Pilko Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Poland hang onto their win and I make a slim profit; an Ireland goal makes me a slightly bigger one, but a 3rd Poland goal would be the pinnacle. Howay... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Lewandowski and Long both to score (8/1) - £30 returns £270 1st Half 3 or more goals (9/1) - £20 returns £200 The other £200 from my winnings withdrawn, job done for another night! The other games are pointless as the odds are useless. Another £200 win for the day! Approximately £350 in profit for the day, successful after the wins on Friday night taking my weekend gambling profit to approximately £700. Spain's odds against Ukraine are fascinating tomorrow fwiw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I've decided to start a £10 - £5,000 bet challenge, to keep me entertained whilst away with work and after recent successes I'm quite comfortable and would not be too miffed if I lose it all! I've done this (successfully) once before, I've tried two other times (once failing at £25 and another failing at £366). You need big bottle, especially when you're putting £2000 on a single bet. It's a slow starter, but when you reach a decent amount it goes through much quicker. EDIT - that was nearly very embarrassing, I thought I had put Liberec on but I'd actually put Prague on spent 75 minutes cheering on the wrong team, only to check my account and to see that I'd already been paid out for Prague's goal! First bet won. Bet 1 - Won Yes @ 1/7 Sparta Prague U21 To Score Slovan Liberec U21 v Sparta Prague U21 Stake: £10.00 Potential Returns: £11.42 Bet 2 - Won Yes @ 4/5 Nasaf To Score 1st Half Nasaf v Fk Neftchi Fargona Stake: £11.42 Potential Returns: £20.56 They scored in the 44th minute - very, very close. Bet 3 - Won Over/Under Over @ 1/6 (0.5) Match Under/Over 0.5 Goals Live Vejle BK Reserves v FC Midtjylland Reserves Stake: £20.56 Potential Returns: £23.99 At HT this game was 0-0, simple bet that there will be a goal in it. The goal arrived 5 minutes into the second half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Froggy Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I don't have the balls for those despite the odds being in your favour. Once I got to around a grand I'd chicken out I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I don't have the balls for those despite the odds being in your favour. Once I got to around a grand I'd chicken out I think. That is exactly how I was the first time that I did it, when I won my winning bet (I will never forget) was Neymar to score anytime in Barca v Bayern last year in the Champions League. I put this bet on because he was scoring loads in Europe at the time, looked excellent and was in form - plus I just wanted the challenge over and done with. £2,412 stake, returned £5062.20 at 11/10. He scored in the 90th minute :| I was livid, thought I'd blown it. Shouted at the TV at 85 minutes, went in the shower - came down, checked my account three hours later to find that he actually scored late on.

Hanshithispantz Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 What's the point in putting a bet on to win £1.42 though? Do you just keep pitting your winnings on low paying 'bankers'? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 What's the point in putting a bet on to win £1.42 though? Do you just keep pitting your winnings on low paying 'bankers'? Mostly, yes - if I'm putting a bet on a game I have no idea about (such as the U21 Czech game) I'll put it on something reasonably assured. If I'm betting on something I have a bit of knowledge on (UK football, European big games etc.) I'll be slightly more risky. It goes up quite quickly really, the first few bets have a small return due to the small stake - for example, when you reach the hundreds... Putting £300 on at 1/5 returns £360 (60 profit from a very low odd). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Every time I get to £100, I take £10 out and carry on with the rest. It slightly reduces the risk because you've still won something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll try group them together in threes to stop flooding the thread. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andymc1 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I'm an absolute mug punter who wants to back everything so I could never be controlled enough to do that challenge. Once one race finishes, I'm looking for the next one. Todays bet: Russia 2-0, 3-0, 4-0 Sweden 2-0, 3-0, 4-0 England 2-0, 3-0, 4-0 27 trebles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Bet 4 - Won (just) Over @ 3/10 (0.5) Match Under/Over 0.5 Goals Live Sahab SC v Al Tora Stake: £23.99 Potential Returns: £31.19 A Sahab goal in the 93rd minute, keeping the run alive! Had quite a bit of luck on this challenge already! Bet 5 - Won Over @ 3/10 (0.5) Hapoel Nir Ramat Hasharon Under/Over 0.5 Goals Live Hapoel Nazrat Elit v Hapoel Nir Ramat Hasharon Stake: £31.19 Potential Returns: £40.55 Another twitchy one! They scored in the 87th minute. Bet 6 - Won Over @ 1/5 (0.5) Switzerland U21 Under/Over 0.5 Goals Live Switzerland U21 v Norway U21 Stake: £40.55 Potential Returns: £48.65 Switzerland U21 were 1-0 down (but favourites to win the game). The Swiss scored about 4 minutes after I placed the bet. Will stop there today and reconvene tomorrow or later in the week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I'd say it's more likely with that line up. Can see Kane being a Crouch-like bully against the smaller nations for a start. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Will be amazed if that bet doesn't come in for you - not a chance Lithuania should score and we should be more than capable of scoring 2-4 with our 'C' team never mind 'B'.
