Tips for Tikay

[tikay]

Couple of thoughts...

Think the max bet amount should be put up to £300 when the bet is for trading purposes.

Any mileage on trying to get a double on the following?

Froomey @ 5/1 for SPOTY and Djok to win Wimbledon @ 8/13.

Pretty sure Murray needs to win Wimbles if he's to win SPOTY. The two bets are, of course, connected but we might be able to get it through.

I think that has some merit, surprisingly, given the source.

Generally speaking, we never have the whole £300 at risk, do we?

You have the whole £300 at risk until the lay is placed and matched or until other bets are placed which reduce the liability.

"at risk".

Risk? RISK?

Not sure I approve of risk.

A few years back Francesco Molinari was doing a Q & A on twitter and when asked for his favourite course said Le Golf National which is where this weeks French Open is played. Last year he came second after carding a last round 64. He also came runner up in 2010.

This week he's 4 shots off the leaders and is currently 60's on Betfair. If he shoots another 64 this year he'll go close. Suggest a tenner hoping Francesco shoots low at his favourite course.

Anyone else have a view?

I could upload a view of a Las Vegas car park, concrete sub-base, tarmac wearing course.

Shouldn't you be getting your i-pod, shades and hoodie ready?

Good thinking.

As best price is now 50 I guess we have missed our chance.
Perhaps other Fred followers have had a shot.

I could have asked for £300 on it with a view to trading but it is a 60/1 shot and that makes all the difference.

49/1 shot now.
Very best of luck if you got on.

Hamilton -1.5 v Nicholson at Evens with Boyles is ool. Line is -2.5 everywhere else and can only get evens at that line in one spot. Recommend £60

Nice one.
I believe that Hamilton won 10-8 after being 7-5 down.
The Boylesports site wasn't available at the time, sadly - to me, anyway.

Update on the Tour.

With today’s epic mountain stage Froome has gone heavily odds on @ 1/10

Porte’s performance was in many ways just as strong as Froome.  The Sky duo are 1 & 2 in the general classification. Porte now 4/7 top 3 finish & around 16/1 for GC (bookies now top 2, 1/3 odds).

Quintana featured heavily today, attacking early, but succumbed on the final climb, finishing 1.45 down. Still well placed on GC at 8th. Now generally 25/1 for GC & 11/5 top 3. Unfortunately his team leader, Valverde, is 3rd overall so his chances currently depend on team orders. Still two weeks to go, he’ll win a stage imo (stage 15 or 20), & may still play a big part in the race.

Garmin team classification bet has taken a hit. Vande Velde has abandoned after his second crash the other day. Today Talansky & Martin did an ok ride finishing 2.34 down, but Hesjedal was not at his best & finished 39th. Team is now 8th, 8.04 down on Movistar, & around 28/1 in betting.

Two weeks until Paris, plenty of drama still to come...
