Suffice to say motorbikes are dangerous I'll be back playing online poker soon, albeit as a lefty.

Tonight 10pm on Sky sees the 1st leg of the Spanish Super Cup (charity shield) with Athletico Madrid at home vs Barca. Whilst goals are expected there's one market that stands out as per similar reasons to previous bet suggestions.

Suggested bet: £10 on btts in the 1st half, 3.75@coral http://www.oddschecker.com/football/spain/super-cup/atletico-madrid-v-barcelona/both-teams-to-score-in-1st-half

Thanks Mr M.

Thoughts, anyone?

Btw I woulda offered more if a write up but can barely type atm due to injury

[not looked yet but it sounds like BE may of selected over 2.5 in this game.]

Just a reminder: If anyone is thinking about testing the "Chelsea to win 1-0 or 2-0" theory, Ladbrokes are the most generously priced for tomorrow's game against Villa, with odds of 8/1 and 13/2 respectively. I seem to recall 1-0 being theoretically priced at around 5/1 and 2-0 at around 6/1 (or was it the other way around) on Fred a few days back, meaning a smidgen of value.

for betfair users: Id expect that scoreline to happen sooner rather than later. villa aint great at the back and have conceded in 20+ straight PL games.  waiting for goals then backing unders or cs could be of interest.

For those not aware, "BE" = "Betting Emporium", a site upon which Joe Beevers, Lord Grumpy, & other luminaries of the sports betting world, offer tips & advice. One of their specialities is "Over 2.5 goals", where they got off to a cracking three from three start last weekend.

To find out if they really have selected "Over 2.5 goals" in tonight's game, or any other game, visit their site, which is here.....

correct, you could say anyone betting on the game should take a look at the site beforehand

so Bales off, his longer price did fluctuate and offer trading opps. the Rooney market is steady and looks good to let it ride.

I'm posting here as even non boxing fans will be able to appreciate this. It's round 6 involving Fred's fighter Darren Barker and it brings a whole new meaning to 'wanting it'.

For the record it is not a low blow http://www1.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/boxing/8878685/boxing-round-of-the-year

39 goal attempts vs 1
17 shots on target vs 1
77% possession

Unlucky son, its not often those stats would let you down.

Boom Isco in the 86th! Its been a right sweat so far.

Goal Betis!

Snap! Real also take the lead 2mins in. Hopefully Betis get a shot on target before the 90th minute.

EDIT: no goal

Hi, that was my suggestion. Fred passed on it due to not having an 888 or Unibet account.

2-0 after 12mins. They can afford to let Levante score retain possession for a bit.

Can't have Chelsea as equals (or betters) of the Manchester clubs unless they buy a really top class striker in the next two weeks.

Chelsea backers overestimating the amount of game time Abramovich's play thing Torres is going to get?

Ah it's good to see you were paying attention there.

We can boost the Real price by using Coral's 'to win not to nil' market http://www.oddschecker.com/football/spain/la-liga-primera/real-madrid-v-betis/to-win-not-to-nil.

Clever way round it I think - we gain a better price, but lose the bet if it is a score draw or Betis pull off a shock win. Seems a reasonable trade off with Messi & Co @ 1/10.

We have.....

Barca v Levente, BTTS, £20 @ 5/4, BetVictor.

Real M v Real B, Real M to win, NOT TO NIL, £20 @ 27/20, Corals

How do the bookies have these price wrong?

Last season both teams scored in a combined 26/32 home games. Neither side has made any much needed defensive re-enforcement's, so what's changed from last season to justify the bookies prices?
