Tips for Tikay

[tikay]

Thanks Dean, appreciated. I need to give it some more thought. I'm probably just the wrong side of variance with it right now, but I'm trying to imagine how, & by what means, we could generate steady profits on it, not every week or month, but more north than south sorta thing.

The beauty of the wealth of info on the spreadsheets is that it allows us to really look at what we are doing well, or not so well, at. Probably a way too logical, & undegen-like, approach.

If ever there was an integrity question about the IPL it was with that decision there. Clarke triggered by Asian umpire in India from an Indian bowler

scotty2hatty - I have not forgotten the Greyhound Derby tips, just been a bit pushed for time today.

Not to worry, and you don't have to get involved. Camel has already discounted one the selections, Bubbly Phoenix, maybe somebody else can suggest something as an alternative?

Well he only discounted it because we missed the market, (which you already noted) but the others looked reasonable, & nobody objected to those, so I imagine we'll dip our proverbial bread.

Phoenix is trained by Paul Young therefore it cant win the derby. Its just that simple

I note Asif was let out of prison today.

I expect it is elsewhere on the Betting Board, but I saw this rather weird tale today as to Bayern Munich.

The IPL isn't 'fixed' as such - ie. the outcome isn't entirely predetermined.

What I would say however is that there are a small number of individuals who have a certain influence over a number of players and have, with little doubt in my mind, better knowledge than the market regards tactical approach / expected (over by over) run rate / bowling areas etc.

For obvious reasons I can't go into too much detail as to my background in this, but needless to say the league has given me a few sleepless nights in my time.

It's not that unusual. The Rooney deal from Everton to United included all sorts of extra add ons if United won Prems/Champs League etc and that was 8 years ago. I presume it is just for the duration of the initial contract, so it wouldn't still apply in the Rooney context.

Could u let me know quickly if Ganguly is in on the coup please as could do without him scoring at a strikerate of sub 50

There we go Tikay, scratch that one fully.

Anything you really like Dubai? I've been considering adding Droopys Lorenzo before R2, or topping up on some of the others I fancy.

Ganguly is 8 from 18 balls and they need 9 an over.......

You do love your stats, Sandy! Thanks.

Is it settled by the "official" added time, as noted on that silly little board the 4th Official holds up (so 1970's, that), or the ACTUAL added time?

A weird aside here, geeks only apply.

"The Game" (in "The Times" every Monday) has been following the ridiculous way added time is worked out & implemented for a while now, & have spotted that if one team is leading by several goals, there is a tendancy for referees to truncate the added time.  

At the Southampton Coventry match, the 2nd half included three injury delays (assessed to be 4.5 minutes), two goals, & three substitutions. Added time? One minute & 10 seconds. Score at the time? 4-0.

So if City or Utd are a hatful ahead at 90 minutes, looks like short is the way to go.  Whereas if Utd are a goal down.........

It's plainly ridiculous that the time is decided upon a whim.

Love all this stuff, keep it coming.

A good question which seems to have alluded the rules on both sites. I would be of the opinion that it's actual time though since they offer 0 minutes and the board doesn't generally go up until 90 mins. This would mean that  the board would have to go up showing 0 at the same time as the whistle blows whilst common sense tells you he ain't gonna lift the board when the whistle goes.

Yoiu could not possibly place the bet unless that was clarified though.

Ladbrokes - the board number counts

Bwin - crap customer support.

Breaking news,



Thank you for your email.

Please note that in case of football bets it is always taken under consideration the regular playing time (overtime and penalty kicks are taken under consideration only when this is indicated in parentheses at the bet and these bets can be found in the options: Special bets).

Please, note that the game lasts 90 minutes. At the end of the first and second half some minutes are added. This is added time. These are minutes that has been deducted during the meeting because of fouls, changes, etc...

Thus, charged on the end of the meeting time is part of the regular time.

Literally just in that was. Pretty long time to not answer the question.

[doubleup]

they do say "official" on the bet screen, so that should surely be the board.  But the prices were oddly disparate.

[MahoganyVic]

Malinga is so good!

Amazed that Ganguly gets a game in this format

[Dubai]

Ganguly successfully threw the game. Couple of young kids obviously werent in on the coup and will be getting a good telling off for making it close tho
