Tips for Tikay

Did anyone listen to Talksport this morning? I tuned in just as a bookie was announcing that between 12 and 2 this afternoon, they are offering Europe at 2-1.

If only I'd heard the start where they mentioned the company...

Keep an eye or ear out this morning.

This half-information will lose its remaining relevance in six hours.

This is usually Wm Hill, & they allow £10 to the first 25,000 customers or whatever.

A great acquisituon tool, very cost effective too, the CPA is probably about a tenner, which is incredibly cheap.

If it is William Hill, register through the cash back website Quidco and you'll get £20 cash back for a £10 bet.

It's Betfred and bets up to £200

Thanks Mr S.

Up to £200? Wow.

I don't know why, but that bothers me a bit. Presumably aimed at new sign-ups rather than existing accounts? I can see no mention of it on their site.
 
Guess I'm getting a bit spooked & defensive about getting my Account there restricted, as I use them quite frequently.

Paranoia ftw.

If you are using BetFred frequently, you must be losing on there.

The T20WC Super 8's start today with a double header at Pallakelle, near Kandy


11am Sri Lanka play New Zealand http://www.oddschecker.com/cricket/international/twenty20-world-cup/sri-lanka-v-new-zealand

We need Malinga wickets and Dilshan sixes

2.30pm England play West Indies http://www.oddschecker.com/cricket/international/twenty20-world-cup/england-v-west-indies/winner

None of our bets affected by this one


Each team plays three games in a round robin group

Top two teams to the semi finals


Pallakelle is a road wicket. Fast, bouncy, ball comes onto the bat

It should be a sixes wicket, however the quote for the England game (Gayle, Pollard, Bairstow, Buttler et al) is 11.5 which leaves little margin, really

Fred is £317.50 down on there, but "off-Thread", & thanks to two lucky binks, (Miss Ostapchuck, Olympic Shot Putt, & Richie Ramsay, Omega Masters Golf) I am well up, into 4 figures. Hence my nervousness.

I don't use it THAT frequently, maybe 3 or 4 times a month. Very user-friendly site & software.

Thanks Rich, looks like a watching brief today. I would have liked a bet on England - West Indies, but it is pretty much 10/11 both. No value there, or not that I can see.

Long boundaries and they reckon the wicket will slow up for the second game, so 12 could be quite high.

I think we should oppose Angelo Mathews today and back him to score UNDER 34 player performance points at 5/6.

The factors in favour of this are:

A) His player performance points against Zimbabwe and SAF were precisely zero
B) The have shifted him right down the batting order.  Against the Zimbabwe they lost 4 wickets and he didn't arrive at the crease.  Against SAF they lost 5 wickets and he didn't arrive at the crease.  Against a mediocre NZ attack I doubt he will bat.
C) His bowling has been as a containing option rather than a wicket taking one.  Bowled one over against SAF in the shortened match for 8 runs.  Bowled 2 overs against ZIM for 7 runs.

Assuming he doesn't bat, I wouldn't be surprised if he scores zero again, so plenty of room for a few catches and still coming under

That is with B365 by the way.

[DungBeetle]

Scoring for the player performance index is 1 point per run, 20 per wicket and 10 points per catch

Nothing against the bet per se but the NZ bowling attack is not medicore

One of the canniest spinners in Vettori and a superb death bowler in Southee for starters

Of course if Matthews is batting 7(?) then your reasoning could be very right anyway!
