Stinks of a fix! Though luckily for me I did win some money on the result (feel dirty for betting on an Arsenal win but seemed easy money... And was ). Anyone that's a betting man, Paddy Power (not sure if other bookies do it) do this "Live Trebles" bet in a match special section before kick off. My mate introduced me to it, he's had 5 out of 9 winners since doing it and the pay outs tend to range from around the 13-2 mark upwards. He's up about £1100 as he bets £20/ £30 a go. The bet consists of 3 sections: Team to win. Under or Over 11 corners. Under or Over 40 points (yellow card equals 10 points, red I think is 20). I've been looking at them since my mate recommended them to me and have called 2 out of 4 winners without betting so I thought I'd stick a fiver on yesterday. Backed Arsenal, Under and Under. There was 11 corners exact so at the time I weren't sure if that resulted in being under or over, luckily it turned was under (really weren't expecting many as neither are a "corner" set-piece side). Only 1 booking so 10 points. Odds were 13-2 so paid out 37.50 (£32.50 profit). Not trying to persuade anyone to gamble, but for those that have the odd bet on football, I'd definitely recommend looking into it if you have a Paddy account
I thought I'd missed someone out.... Where in the table would you like to be and how much are you willing to pay?
Just adding onto this, backed a treble with Chelsea today. Chelsea to win, under 11 corners and under 40 points. Another £60 pocketed from a fiver Really do recommend to those that enjoy a little gamble to have a look at these trebles. Of course not a guaranteed winner but when you take into consideration how the teams play, you can get a pretty good idea of how dirty it'll be and if set pieces will come into play or not. NOTE: I take no responsibility for potential loss of finances
