The Betting Thread

I'm with dj, I've only ever got used to the non decimal version.

I also get confused with places for each way bets at the races, I can never remember how many runners you need, before the places change.
 
Birmingham 1/7 to avoid relegation for some reason, considering we're 1/25.

Worth a big-money punt on Birmingham, surely?

if youve got the money, then definately..would need a couple of grand spare to make it worthwhile, but would be an easy few hundred quid...its risky backing those odds in a 2 horse race, but youve got a 21/24 chance of winning

That's why I never bet on horses, too many possible outcomes compared to win, draw, lose.

Anyway, I decided to place £5k on Andorra losing instead. Paid out a tidy £500 profit :D
