Mitch's 30th. Wrestlemania theme. How many can you spot? And who are they?!

Mitch is only 30?

My instinct was calling too.  But surely you can't insist on fancy dress in your 40s?

OK I've sorted most of my EPL spread bets for the season. Thought I would share what they are and we'll see how I do over the season. I'd like to think I've taken the right side of the lines, but am not delusional that I'm a sports betting fiend and have made a bunch of sharky bets. I'm paying any juice there is for a season long sweat which I know I'll love. Won't say amounts but will give you an idea of where I've gone big.

Teams bought (taken overs)

Middlesborough 39.5 points: 4 units (per point) Finished on 28 points: loss 46 units
Stoke 45.5 points: 2 units Finished on 44 points: loss 3 units
Spurs 67.5 points: 1 unit Finished on 86 points: win 18.5 units
West Ham 55 points: 1 unit Finished on 45 points: loss 10 units

Teams sold (taken unders)

Man City 75.5 points: 3 units Finished on 78 points: loss 7.5 units
Leicester 54.5 points: 3 units Finished on 44 points: win 15.75 units

Other bets:

Chelsea vs Arsenal 2 units per point. 18 points difference: win 36 units
Chelsea top 4 at 8/13: 25 units. win 15 units

Gone huge on Chelsea. The top 4 bet is with a guy that I had credit with and wanted to gamble with rather than cash out. It's my biggest ever sports bet. Come on team Kante/Conte!

Total win 18.75 units.

Won deece at fantasy football and the weekly draft too so overall was a great season. Might leave the spread bets next year lol. Boro was a killer, unless bastards!

Sweating fantasy football each week was the best, absolutely loved it. Tailed off last two months of the season which lost me two big side bets, one of which vs Warbs went down to the last kick of the game nearly. If Stoke hadn't scored vs Soton, I'd have won by one point. Brutal!

Edit: Leicester unders WAS 3 units, until Tighty persuaded me that it was too risky and I halved my stake to 1.5 units. Expensive conversation  !

He's been here for 3 weeks, & I've been here for 4, but today was my first sighting of Alex.

He returned overnight with 17,000, spun it up to 100,000 then back down to around 45,000. Blinds are 1,000-2,000 plus the RA.

Thanks Tikay, Mark, Celtic and Ralph! Couldn't recover but making progress from 16 bricks to 3 min cashes!

Doing well on cash games which is paying for the tournament buy-ins, but not the nights out, yet!

This is without a doubt the best Vegas trip I've ever been on by the way! But maybe the last big one I do Making the most of it, that's for sure

[tikay]

Where are you playing cash, Alex?

Anything special lined up after you get home from Vegas?

Why might this be your last big Vegas trip?

Nights out you guys have probably cost more than the WSOP

I've been saying that since 2011... That said, I've no significant other, or real life commitments.

Best of luck for the rest of the summer, Alex!
