blonde poker forum

After making a nice amount on the footie last weekend with ManU and Arsenal doing the business for me I am, as always, really looking forward to the mad rush of footie at Christmas time. The bookies will make a few mistakes over the christmas period and that's all I'm looking for.

This weekend starts off the great christmas 3 games in a week madness and there are 2 outstanding bets for me (prices taken from corals coupon..you might get better.if you check oddschecker.com )

The rules for me are simple during this period...team I bet on has to be a decent price for the fixture and will be either a team at the top or it will be a decent team playing a team at the bottom of the league.. I'll start with a 50£ bet and will let half of the profits ride on to the next match day. I will never bet on anything more than a double (trebles are bookies bets) and that's it really.

This weekend;

Darlington to beat Lincoln @5-4 (Darlington away) Lincoln city on 18 points 4 from the bottom and a poor home record. Darlington top 4 36 points and a good away record (5 wins 2 draws 2 losses 15 goals for and 6 against)

Ross County to beat Brechin @ 10-11 (Ross county away) Ross County top the league with 31 points and great away record. Brechin 2nd from bottom, 14 points and dismal home record of only 2 wins (admittedly 5 draws)

at these odds it's almost a 4-1 double.

also gives me a good reason to sit through Gillette soccer saturday..always great fun if you have a bet on :)

Anyone spot any value anywhere this weekend?

Spurs to beat the @rse .... lump on !!

I have a small double on Darlington and Inverness CT.

3.5pts win Walsall (v Millwall) @ EVS.
1.5pts DBL Walsall & Stockport (v Grimsby 5/6)

£50 DBL pays £183.

Gl Boldie, in my limited knowledge/recall. I think Lincoln are in a bit of form at the moment, after new manager Peter Jackson (ex Huddersfield) took over.

Right im off to pick out my loosers.

yeah ..Lincoln aren't as crap as they used to be..which is why Darlington are a big price..I stillexpect darlington to beat them though.

My bets both single (cos im a balla) on betfair

Walsall 2.04
Charlton 1.97

Gone for
Leeds to beat Bristol Rovers
Watford to beat Sheffield Wednesday
& Ross County to beat Brechin (Cheers Boldie)

Pays out at a nice 6.96 on Betfair.

Just nipped to Ladbrokes to get the coupon on ..  usual bet, 5 teams, 10 £1 trebles, 5 £1 four folds and a £1 acc ... total £16.

dog race just about to go off so i have the £4 change on a forecast .. ducks ! then the 12.25 at Navan is just about to start so i look for a bit of valloooooo to oppose the 2/9 fav.  I pick Islland Arrow at 25/1 for a £5 each way interest ... it beats the fav by a pubic hair in a photo !!!  ship the £160 bucks !!!!!



anyway todays selections

Reading v Sunderland HOME  4/5
Cardiff   v  Sheff Utd  HOME  5/4
Ipswich v Burnley      DRAW  11/5
Sheff Wed v Watford AWAY 11/8
Luton v Tranmere   Home   5/4

nice going!

cheers, hope the luck holds for the coupon ... lets hope there are no happy fans in Sheffield tonight and im halfway there LOL

Brechin v Ross County is off I believe.  Very frosty up here.

Decided to put a decent size single on Inverness CT - ONE TIME.

I thought it was still on http://www.fixtures365.com/ still has it up...doesn't matter if it's off though..still leaves me with darlington.

Lincoln 0 Darlington 4   at the moment.

Money looking safe!!

it will do nicely :)

This is what happens when you don't listen to me, sigh.

One Time Caley Jags! 2-0 up.

My weekly 4 team accumulator is also winning at the moment - Two Times!

I am 5 from 5 ... HOLLLLLLLLLDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

very well done..on an Edinburgh note..Hibs are beating Celtic!..

GL with them holding mate!

Was happy with my selection Walsall, winning 3-0. Just wish Stockport had grabbed the winner to complete my double. Still a very profitable day tho.

Nice little return

i have to send the ref in the reading game a christmas card LOL

i dont understand why u wouldnt lay a single off here??? esp as you said it was a biggish bet

Seems noone had faith in my Inverness tip at a big price!  I'm over the moon.

I don't understand why I would tbh! Lol.

oooooooooooooooooooh kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay

You may have misunderstood me.  I simply do not know how to lay off bets during a bet for my benefit - that's all.

fair enough, came across a bit like "i am sam"

well betfair/betdaq is easiest to do it, but i can be done by betting on the draw and dundee utd to win for small stakes to win ur initial stake back, basically you will then be freeroling for a slightly lower overall win, but in my opinion worth it

Yeah, I hear people mention these kind of bets all the time on this board.  I should really sort myself out with the required knowledge.

defo if your doing singles

Boxing day brings us leg2 of this little thing.

As I only had a single actually go ahead todayso got 112.50 back for my 50£ I shall be keeping 50£ of this back (as stated in my OP I would keep half back but decided that as I started out with a single bet I shall just keep 50 back)..

Leeds are away to Hartlepool and I'm almost tempted to go with Leeds at evens here as they would be well ahead of everybody if they hadn't had 15 points deducted and are running hot at the moment. Hartlepool are effectively 24 points behind them...that's a big gap but there's better value to be had elsewhere AND...I set out the rules elsewhere and this game doesn't quite comply with them :( so I'm giving this a miss..although it pains me to say this.

MK dons are doing really well in league2 at the moment and this boxing day they are away to  Notts County who are 22 points behind them. Notts are not that great at home and MK dons have won 7 out of 10 of their away games..at 10-11 this is a must bet in my book.

Peterborough (league 2) are away to Mansfield this boxing day..Mansfield are bottom of the league..Peterborough top 3..Peterborough are not the best away team in the world but have won 5 out of their 10 away games... at even money I can't stay away from this one


that's my double for boxing day..unless either Peterborough or MK dons pick up a host of injuries or the team gets the flu.

or Bandit gets on first ;)

oh crap yes ...I would rather back Peterborough if they fielded a team of flu ridden amputees and Mansfield fielded Arsenals first string, than if Bandit backed them.

Bandit..stay away from my bets!!!!!

thx for the tip boldie had the same bet on as you, at stan james

netted £31 + £25 free bet :D

I know nothing about sports [EDIT]Betting[/EDIT] lol  but it was fun

i only had £25 on it

extra money is extra money mate :)

Man United v Everton - Draw/Man U - 10/3
Newcastle v Derby - Newcastle/Newcastle - 10/11
Blackburn v Chelsea - Draw/Chelsea - 7/2
Aberdeen v Rangers - Draw/Aberdeen - 10/1

£5 yankee.

Got the start time mixed up for the Man United game, went into Billy Hills to stick my line up after doing a bit of shopping for Christmas and seen it was half time, proceeded to go on tilt and spunk away £170 - I think I might switch to being a muslim over this festive period and cancel christmas off in this household.

Hartlepool Utd (vs the Mighty Leeds). 1pt win @ 2/1.
MK Dons (vs Notts County). 3pts win @ 10/11.

Ive gone with Hartlepool, basically because were not that good and have been extremely lucky all season.
We wont be beat at home in this divison with 30,000 strong crowds, but an away defeat has been coming and Hartlepool outplayed us even though we won 3-0 at home earlier in the season.

I hope im wrong, but tis' value.

If you dont want to back Hartlepool, id at least advise leaving us (Leeds) out of your coupons.


........And i agree with Boldedge with MK Dons for all the reasons he stated.

4 in my acca for today

1   Swansea v Cheltenham (Backing  Swansea @ 1.45)
2   Hartlepool v Leeds (Backing  Leeds @ 2.27)

Then lumped some of it on Arse to beat Pompey ;grr;

Why would Big Sam  make Alan Smith his captain  I cant see how the guy gets in the team let alone as a captain

Alan Smith = a talentless Emile Heskey.
