Does anyone have any experience using www.winner.com?

Reliable? Cashouts timely? Problems?

Has by far the most obvious bunch of self produced reviews I have ever seen.  Never used them and there is little on sportsbookreview.

plus they sport the marque of Kahnawake which is always a great reason to steer clear.

I would steer clear.  Hard to find anything out about them although on the positive side they seem to use Playtech software which isn't cheap and they generally do their due diligence and I wouldn't be quite as negative about the Kahnawake license although given they seem to be targeting the UK it seems a slightly bizarre place to put their business.

Not read the latest updates from Fukishima?

I knew it was unlikely but Istanbul was an opportunity to link the Muslim World with the Western World. Sport should be able to break down barriers of distrust & lack of understanding between both. Just my hippy idealism here

Oregon destroyed Virginia 59-10.

Mariota stats

Passing 14/28 199yds 1td
Rushing 4att 122yds 1td

His accuracy in the passing game is still a concern, he was definitely better last season in this respect. At this point he probably hasn't pushed himself forward or back in the Heisman race in my opinion but his passing has to improve to win it.



71 yard td run, as you can see he is very quick for someone of his build.

Vuelta update:

Tough, horrible day in Andorra.

Txurruka picked up another 4 points (10 in total now), & finished 24th on the stage, so seems to be strong still. He's lying 11th in KOM, I think that's well placed with so many mountain stages still to come. His main rivals Edet & Ulssi are both on 13.

BigAdz mentioned Jordan Spieth earlier in the week and how he thought he should be backed at 33/1 in this week's BMW Championship.

The early markets are up and he is 33/1 with Ladbrokes and Coral.  They are both quarter first 5 which I think is generous.  It also beats a very early Betfair market, albeit one with 40k backed so far.   Even if he does drift out a little there, then I can't see 8/1 top 5 looking bad value by start day.

For comparison he was 45/1 before the last tournament and 60/1 the one before, and he was 100/1+ for the Open not that long ago.  But he seems to have been underestimated in those tournaments, and has hit a 1st, 2nd, 4th and 6th in the last 8 tournaments he has played.  He has also been selected for the US team in the President's Cup this week, so is obviously highly rated by his peers.  All this is known info, but we could still be ahead of the market here.

I know we have had a bad time with golf bets, but still think we should put at least £20 each way on.  If you want to put it down to the big fella, it is ok by me.

Edit. Edited number of places to 5, typo in the post

Got an F1 bet I like for Sunday afternoon.

Vettel is on pole and a big fav for the Italian Grand Prix.

This therefore gives some big value to the place part of bets on some of his opponents, lots of bookies only go first 2 each way for example.

In second we have Webber who is ofski next year and just doesn't seem all that bovved, in third there's a Sauber that can't compete, and in 4th there's Massa who will be told to help Mambo Number five, the man currently lying in second place in the driver champs.

Step forward Mr Fernando Alonso available@11-2 ew first 3 1/5 odds with BetVictor&Skybet.

Obviously the value of this bet is in the place part.

At 1/5 of the odds first 3 we get 2.1/11/10 for him to make the podium.

The biggest price you'll get with the bookies for this is 4/6, and it's unders and 1.64 to lay on Betfair.

The win part of the bet is fairly neutral, it's just over 6-1 to lay on the machine.

Like this bet a great deal, especially when we add on the home advantage for Ferrari.

Recommend £50 each way Fernando Alonso@11-2 with BetVictor.

Would happily take 5-1 ew with first 3 1/5 odds too.

 I just noticed winner.com on oddschecker. The lovely people at Playtech started the winner.com iPoker skin a few months before their joint venture with WillHill ended. Rumour was the plan was to have a new skin (other than Titan which they also own) where they could direct all the rakeback customers that were playing on Hills at that stage.

 Presumably the sportsbook is just a part of that and I guess they are a white label of another sportsbook. I assume they don't have their own prices, they just mirror someone elses. I'm not sure what happens in these spots with liability management, decisions on restricting accounts etc. Is that stuff done by the white label (winner in this case) or by the book they are a white label of?

 If you are happy keeping poker money with Titan, Winner or doing any business with Playtech then you should be happy to do business with winner.

 I would guess they will be totally clueless though.

One other point is that when the UK licensing comes in, it will be illegal for anyone not licensed by the Gambling Commission to take bets.  So that gives all these smaller sites a great opportunity to stall/refuse to pay out.

Red - do you think Pinnacle will apply for a UK license?

Regarding the Alonso bet.

Bet Victor now go 9-2 and first 2 ew-meh terms now.

Still like the bet at 5-1 first 3 ew with Stan James altho I'm not sure if fred can get on.

It's 9-2 with boyles at the same terms, but at that price i'd probs leave it.

Morning Mr T.

In today's super league Wakefield host Castleford, who are without Fred hero Justin Carney. However Wakefield are in a bad way and have had to sell their most influential player to Salford in order to meet the months wage bill. Castleford have the most potent offense at present and should be backed to win by more then the handicap of 2 points.

Suggest Castleford -2  £20 @ evs with Paddy Power.
