Simple really- a place for us all to talk about our match day bets and any tips we might have. I'm a sucker for an accumulator and this has probably been my personal best with 4 in the bag so far(still pretty rubbish ) Today I'm going for utd, Liverpool, WBA, hull and barnsley. Skybet offered 13.1 for it so just put a tenner on. Not a spectacular return, but I've been struggling today. Might find more value in 3 draws with oldham, burnley and Bristol rovers looking good value at 45's. Anyone else have anything interesting?
Morning Chrissy, Got Ars,Liv,Man U,Soton,Brum,'Udd,Addicks,Sheff U on Betfair for 8 accie plus 56 x 50p trebles , which, if they all come in will give me total of 338 pounds.
Looking at another option now (this is what happens when consigned to your bed with illness Bolton, 'wall, West Ham, Leicester and Sheff Utd is 41/1. Afternoon Stu - might be able to help me further understand with the doubles, trebles etc.. I'm new to all this malarky!
I keep away from betting. The only time I've ever won a bet is when I had a bet on both teams. (One to win, other first goal). And yes, I actually made a small profit. Other than that, my betting history is pretty horrible..can't afford to waste money as a student.
Its simple really, for a treble,if any 3 of my eight picks come in , then i win on 1 treble, however , there are 56 combinations of trebles with 8 selections (for example, Ars,Liv and ManU is 1 treble, Ars,Liv and Udd is another etc. etc) - and there are 56 combinations of those - therefore, you have to bet 56 times. Thats why you tend to bet low amounts, such as 50p a bet - which totals 28 pounds. If all 8 come in then you win 57 bets (56 trebles plus your 8 accie). Hope that helps ! - I find Betfair to be a fantastic website for footy betting - simple , but comprehensive. Southampton letting me down at the moment !
Keeper had a mare there, eh? Cheers for explaining stu. Chucked all mine on, including a 14 game one for a laugh(had a spare £1 in my acct). My main one is now Bolton, 'wall, Leicester, Sheffield utd and west ham.. 40's. I wish you all luck with any beta you have going, and expect 20% of any profits made. Not606 tax law
Just noticed in the BetFred advert they give a cheeky mention of ''it being 2-1 at The Valley''. We've made it.
Good call AH! Really think we will be 2-0 up at halftime, with them scoring in the second. Similar to Notts away.
Oh well, 8 accie failed miserably, however, a bit of consolation with Liv , Man U ,Ars and Sheff U coming home to give me 4 trebles - so , overall, a big loss for me.
