Tips for Tikay

[Tal]

Quite put me off my lunch that hour on the thread. The image was bad, the comment afterwards from our ex-after-timer was a real "did he really post that?" moment

Much like his tips :-)

I was thinking how well you looked, Tighty.

Cold, but well.



Have been spending the afternoon doing research and mock NFL drafts. Jolly hard work for a Saturday. At least Soccer Saturday was quiet in the background. Wish they'd get rid of all those crying gooners..

Tennis recommendation to consider;

Sloane Stephens, wildy regarding as the next best thing in Womens tennis.  Having a great year in Grand slams compared to past years.  Reaching the Aussie QF in January, and was 17th Seed in Wimbledon, reaching another QF before losing to Bartoli (eventual winner).

Playing tomorrow (1/9) against Serena Williams.  Serena beat her in the aussie QF, so some revenge/lesson learnt are on the cards.

Now I'm not saying Sloane will beat Williams, but I think a 2-1 loss is most likely, and a good bet at 6/1 best odds available with Hills.

http://www.oddschecker.com/tennis/us-open/womens/serena-williams-v-sloane-stephens/set-betting

Recommend £10 @ 6/1 Serena 2 sets to 1.


Edit - additional info.....US Open form.

1st Rnd 2-1 (4-6, 6-3, 6-1)
2nd Rnd, (6-1, 6-1)
3rd Rnd (6-1, 6-3)

Thanks Waz.

Any views on this from our tennis sorts?

It can't be terrible, as it very much stands out.  It just seems likelier that everybody else is right and Hills are wrong than the other way round.  Serena just crushes at tennis tho.

Max 16.67.  Do you have a free tennis bet Tikay?  I know I have one on my account for some promotion.  Obv don't want to use it here with the 16.67 max.

I just noticed that I do, yes, "Free Tennis Bet, £25". No idea why.

there are no free bets still to be taken according to the spreadsheet

I think you just had to put a sports bet on to get it.  I guess everyone here with a Hills account should check if they have one under free bets on their accounts.

Agree. This one only appeared this afternoon.

Have just checked my "Messages" on Wm Hill & found this, dated 22nd August......

Have you seen anything suggesting that Sky Sports have secured the 2013/14 NFL TV Rights for the UK?

No, not if I read it correctly. It says......


"Simply place a £25 bet on any sporting event, and you'll get a further £25 on us to be used on the
 US Open tennis!"

So we have already qualified, many times over. I've placed over 30 bets with WH this week.

Not yet they haven't. Last year they only secured them the night before the first game of the season

Channel 4 have announced they have Sunday Night football and the Wembley Games (which is a big coup for them) via Sunset and Vine

ESPN is now back on our screens post BT sport so Monday Night football will be viewable that way....

BBC have announced they will not be doing Monday night football (which was a very low budget red button service last year with two presenters in a broom cupboard)

[ForthThistle]

Boooooooooooooom

Congrats on a winning Fred debut Mr Fistle.

Cheers Mr K.

Hope a few of the lads had something on it. Just waiting for Motherwell and a cracking Double.

GL US...

Get In....   Home run!!!!

ooh, lovely.

On a FML note, both Tighty & I will be working next weekend, SPT Newcastle, so that's buggered Week One.

If you're off Next Dooring, who's going to be describing my Alexander the Great-esque conquering* of the DTD Deepstack?

This is most unsatisfactory.




*could alternatively be a Miltoneque descent, but we shall be looking to avoid a repeat of that
