Title: Its Friday, Im bored, Help me choose a placepot bet! Post by: StuartHopkin on February 26, 2010, 11:58:33 AM Dont seem to have much on today
So im going to put together a placepot bet for this afternoon. Probs 2 horses a raise to 10p. Invest a massive £6-40 Any input welcome, I havent looked at any cards yet. We have about an hour I think to sort it. If we scoop some forum related japes will insue with the profit. Lets go go go. Title: Re: Its Friday, Im bored, Help me choose a placepot bet! Post by: Geo the Sarge on February 26, 2010, 12:17:32 PM Rarely have a bet on horses but when I do I use a simple method.
Pick a letter, go through the card and choose the total amount of horses you are looking to back by picking the first horses that come up that begin with that letter. E.G. quite a few years back me and a mate were out for a Saturday afternoon session and I chummed him to the bookies. He was harping at me to have a bet and I kept refusing. But he just became a pratt with his insistence so I said "ok, next horse running that begins with the letter M, I'll stick a tenner on." Next race a horse called Muttahmared (sp?) was running and I popped a tenner on and it romped in at summin like 12'S. Same horse ran and won a few weeks later and this time I had a deliberate bet on it. My mate sure did win that day. I done it again a wee while later while being pressed to pick a Grand National horse - letter M......minnehoma, nuff said Geo Title: Re: Its Friday, Im bored, Help me choose a placepot bet!

You've tempted me to get involved. Any returns will not be going on forum related japes though they will be going on my football bets tomorrow. 1 3, 4, 6 2 2, 8 3 3, 5 4 4, 5 5 1, 2, 5 6 2, 7 144 line(s) at £0.20 each Total Stake for Bet: £28.80 Its probably more a case of will i win my stake back if i win tbh, but you never know, the favourites could have an off day.

You've known me a fair while, surely you know i spend about 99% of my time laughing and joking.
I remember when we all used to joke about, the 'PC Brigade' are the ones ruining this forum, wish it could go back to how it used to be.
