Tips for Tikay

[the sicilian]

Another good one is Celtics at the Knicks..knicks riddled with injury Stoudimire..Linsation out..chandler possible out as well..celtics big 3 in and rested.... celtics looking to close out the division with a win and a philly loss ...

Celtics big 3 not in, Ray Allen is still out injured. Chandler starting for the Knickerbockers

Yup Allen out chandler in..other 2 are out... Still like celtics here at this price will go down to the wire but like the Celtic on the D line and the 2 Knicks out

I quite like the way the Knicks line up without those two, Carmelo is back scoring 30 a night, looks good to me

Well... At least one of us will be right for a change lol... Think the celtics have a more even score spread through the team

[claypole]

How the hell is this a 3 point game, we were 1/8 a minute ago lolol

Hold!

[claypole]

[claypole]

Lolz.....  Ok so the pacers take Philly 102-97..... Clay pole hasn't seen a close game yet....if he does he may feint..wait till u see a 3 go down with a second to go lol....

Philly actually played much better than expected but pacers outside shooters won the game so reputation such as it was slightly restored and I make the boss some money ( as well as myself ) wiiiiiii

My celtics call looking bad at the moment

[the sicilian]

A big game late today lakers host San Antonio... I believe spurs plying 2nd of 3 in 3 nights...they are notorious for resting their stars but I think they will rest them v the kings tmmr as their stars had limited minutes last Night as they strolled the game.... Lakers haven't missed a beat without star of stars Kobe Bryant... could be awesome... Spurs are favorite but lakers very tough at home and Bynum gasol  and world peace ( yes that's his name ) have really stepped up... Lakers are dogs but I'm gonna give it to them by a hair...but this could go anyway...

Apart from them being my team I fancy San Antonio to be the dark horse to win it all..they have experience and stars with Parker and Duncan and have huge offensive weapons...They have a backup guard in Neal who looks a star of the future and of course the one that is Ginobli

Go spurs....

[the sicilian]

Here come the celtics and some Knicks in foul trouble...

[Ant040689]

QPR +0.5 Asian handicap @ 1.96 with either laddies or 188bet.

Translated this means QPR or the draw and they are at home to Tottenham.

QPR have won their last 3 home matches and are relying solely on their home form to stay up with the atmosphere for their home games very supportive. The wins were against Swansea, Arsenal and Liverpool so not too bad.

With Tottenham they have lost their last two including an embarrassing home defeat to Norwich and a smashing against Chelsea 5-1 at Wembley. They also haven't won away from home in their last 8 premier league matches.

I think its worth a reasonable wager and is going forth as an official 'tips for tikay' tip, whereas my Wigan backing was a bit of a punt!

".....I'd like if Adnmdv or Redarmi would price up this match for us...."

Hopefully, they will concur, one way or another, so we are either very wrong, or very right.

Rather brave of me to go against you, in your current form, especially with Wigan, so I hope - sort of - your faith is rewarded.

On my phone so will be brief.  I agree with Keith's analysis in general but also thought it might get bigger so a bit of both.  Does look a classic letdown spot though although I would say I haven't seen enough of Fulham recently to have an idea whether they are "on the beach" yet which is important

£100 Chelsea to beat Barca @ 5.3, are you mad?!?!

Daily Summary, 8am Wednesday 18th

When I first played live poker, 10 or 11 years ago, I entered a tenner freezeout in Derby one Wednesday, my first ever Tourney. A month later I entered my first £100 affair, @ Gala Notts, & could not believe I had just spent £100 on a game of poker. One hundred pounds!

I feel the same about yesterday – I bet invested NINE HUNDRED QUID!

Jeez!

However, we still have most, if not all, of our £2,000 roll, we are in profit before that £900, some of which has returned already, & if one or three of those come home, we are still in profit, & if they don’t, well about a third of the ‘roll is down the swanee, so it’s not quite as bad as it looks. Self-delusion ftw.

Just one of those rare days, I guess, where a lot of stuff came up. The day before I never invested a penny piece. We will need to go a bit steady until the weekend though, when a lot of the big bets settle, unless Chelsea perform a miracle tonight.

Tighty gave us a lovely cricket bet, & I laid 4 different bets for £25 each @ 3. I’ve accounted for each of them as £50, as that is my liability, I think.

Several World Snooker “value” bets are booked, we even have a BGT bet, ffs.

Doobs stunned with his Chelsea bet “Ignore Messi”. Hmm. Had to do it though for his sheer audacity. Tonight, we shall see.

Deano came in with a NBA bet which won, a rarity on this thread.

Chompy gave us Southampton, but I sort of bottled it, & only invested half his suggestion, then made it worse by sort of worse by doing a goalscorer bet which wiped out the profit, & some. My bad, lesson learned.

Then, after all that, Bobby discovered what appeared to be some great value in a German football bet at around 10pm last night. We got on @ 16/5, & it is already at least half a point shorter everywhere.

Some day. Now we need for a few of them to get home.

We did, however, make a small profit yesterday. There's that delusion again.
