Thank you very much.

Evening all,

Can anyone help please. How do I access all Fred's bets for 2016 and 2017 ? I can find the spreadsheet in the first post but I still can't find what I'm looking for.

Thanks

Hey Ragz.

about 5 years ago when I was playing online I ad a big stretch of significant $ under EV. This was basically run good in small samples at biggest stakes yadayadayada but man did it effect my mentality so so badly. Was chatting 1 day with Gavz who said he turned his ev off his hem for over a year and was best thing he ever did.

I did the same and honestly it was amazing I effectively just disregarded it as a metric for 14 months (eventually succumbed after a run good period at 25/50 wanted to see how + I was lol)

If it affects your mindset as bad as it did mine, and no offence but it certainly seems too, in all your posts it'mostly about how under EV you are, obviously you've not been lucky but you have spent a lot of time on the EV moan and I'm sure you could have spent  that time in a more profitable and effective way.

I propose this to You,

Pick a charity, I'll donate £500 if you go 3 whole months of decent volume without looking at the EV, but if you succumb you have to donate £50 every time you look.

Could be a game changer!

What a lovely offer Dave, you are a top man.

Ronnie - apparently - fouled a red whilst cueing up to pot the black in the 1st frame. The camera never saw it, the ref never saw it, nobody saw it, but Ronnie instantly declared the foul & walked away from the table. Most, of not all, snooker players would do the same.

It made me think of the utter contrast in football.

Even after the most blatant foul or handball, the shoulders go up & the hands outstretched - "what me, ref?". Or the player wags his finger at the ref in admonishment. If I were a referee & a player wagged his finger at me in such circumstances, he'd soon be enjoying an early bath.

I wish football would copy rugby union. Any back chat and the penalty is moved 10 yards forward and the ref keeps moving it forward until they stop arguing. They soon learn. So easy to stop if they really wanted to.

I hope Fred had the Stoke relegation bet with paddy parr as they are paying out early - early as in now!

I'll check but I'm pretty sure half was with Coral and half with William Hill.

Hi Lisa,

Did you place this for us?

I rather thought you did, but the Spready says "Betfred". However, I just searched my Betfred Account & can't see the bet. 

Indeed I did. £200 at 7/1 IIRC

having 5 indian takeaways locally that deliver and without fail each one is never anywhere close to as good as the first time you ordered.

Are you suggesting they do better food for people ordering for the first time ?

The level of trolling in this thread lately is ridiculous.

IIRC blonde lost posters because of this sort of guff on the Liverpool thread.

Easy to see why United fans aren't posting much of late.

Can't the City fans have their sport on their own thread?

The football threads really do get irksome, as people take the banter baton and keep running.

If you can't have a laugh at Mourinho then what in life can you laugh at? (unless you love him of course )

They were the late KO and drew yet again, think its pretty standard to see a flurry of comments. Plus all of Mourinho's media comments simply invites people to come and take a look and maybe comment or post.

I don't think this thread has been a hotbed of united fans for a long time. It's not as if any of their contributions are being lost amongst other fans.

Lighten up.

+1

Tal, I usually agree with you but this thread has been fina as far as I'm concern. No real abuse.

I'm a Man U fan and I agree with everything being said about Mourinho. The man is an absolute disgrace.

I'm no PL expert but this seems weak to me.

Why is everyone so desperate to take on the best club side in the world all of a sudden? Didn't they make ten changes in the week? Back to the usual here?

Howe seemed to have pretty much written off this game when he spoke in the week and he's unlikely to suddenly change tactics after Souness's comments about Bournemouth getting it wrong v the big six.

In other news, Tis Wonderful...timberrrrrrr. I've got £0 on, which is nice.

Tis Wonderful, thanks

The Stoke to be relegated bet.

I think we placed this bet with a view to trading out because Stoke had a tough start.
I'm not quite sure why we are letting the bet run now.
We can trade out now for a small free roll and I really can't see Stoke getting much shorter.
Can't remember whose bet it is, Maybe Arb / Tighty.

Gunna be heading over to Blackpool this weekend for the GUKPT. Haven't been there since I was a wee nip. Anyone else heading there? Recommendations on the best place to stay etc?

You can get a shithole for £40 a night or a huge shithole for £35 a night, it's blackpool, enjoy it it's fucking class

Yep, never found a decent hotel or a decent restaurant in Blackpool.

Very good water park in Tenerife. Siam Park I think.

Alex,

If you have significantly reduced your outgoings, does that mean that you bought the house for cash, no mortgage ?

Thanks
