Tips for Tikay

[tikay]

Stoke got this winger kid in at the last second, but no idea how bookmakers settle these things. £5 placed at 20-1 as recced?

Ross Mc going nowhere!!

FML, never even saw the Post.

At 4.15 this afternoon, I was deep in the land of nod.

You'll have to cry yourself to sleep again tonight.

Novelty bet alert if you have a Staniel James account

Will any member of the Red Hot Chili Peppers be shirtless during their superbowl performance?

Yes is a whopping 4/6.

Flea - arguably the greatest bassist of all time - hasn't owned a shirt since about 1982 from when he was in Back to the Future:

Doobs do you think Anthea Turner is big at 33/1 in The Jump?

Probably.  I did a bit of reading before, and isn't She an experienced skier?  Not backed her and not got time to do any research now.  She doesn't seem the type to be competitive tho.  Don't think it can be terrible.  I might bung a fiver on.  Cheers

Just back, just found out she has a ski chalet.  Telegraph man puts her 2nd in the girls.  Doesn't suggest snowplough turns to me.  Upped it to £20. 

Thread Banzai probably good.  Get on the phone Tikay before 8 33/1 in a few places.

Anthea top woman 14-1 with Hills. Can't find details on how someone becomes the champion/winner if the boys and girls are doing different things each night. Anyone know?

I know Fred is not on, but just in case anyone else followed this Anthea is the last women standing after Kimberly going out tonight so 14-1 is weighed in.

Wow, well noted Omm.

If Fred is not on, that is an Admin error on my part. I need to go back in the thread, but Joe Beeevers & Doobs discussed it, & Doobs urged me to take a fiver @ 33/1.

I've just checked, & I placed TWO bets, 1 minute apart, on January 27th, (ties in with timings above) with Wm Hill, see.....

27 Jan 14 / 19:18  Single 1   The Jump 2014 - Top Female  –  Top Female Anthea Turner @ 14/1 – £5.00 O/0457483/0000808/F
27 Jan 14 / 19:17  Single 1   The Jump 2014 - Outright  –  Outright Anthea Turner @ 33/1 – £5.00 O/0457483/0000807/F

You know me, no way on God's earth would I be backing Novelty Shite Off-Thread, I can't abide it, so I clearly intended them for Fred, but must have forgotten to confirm.

Makes no difference to me personally, but it's too late to allow Fred to have them now, CO Doobs & Mere would be seriously grumpy about it, but it's a tad annoying, that's at least twice this has happened in January, & would deffo have helped with the numbers.

Anyway, great bets, whoever suggested them, thank you.

these should definitely be on thread's ledger

No way you'd have done it for off thread japes is there?! Hardly.

Just a consequence of getting behind on the admin.

Not sure who is the final call on this, but thats my vote

Not sure I'd agree "greatest bassist ever", but I've never seen him perform with a shirt on.

google image "flea, red hot chilli peppers" pretty much confirms.

And the number of OMAHAs bet seems to have an Atlantic divide.

UK bookies have all set/copied their line at 32.5 times.

Vegas goes 27.5.

Some wise chap on the telly the other day said no one ever backs unders because it's dull and you want to cheer on the win. And Neil Channing agreed with him.

Is this exploitable?

That was Boycie, & it actually set me thinking, as it must distort the lines if true.

They would only lay me £3.70, so I tried getting on again at 18/1 with no joy.

Would have been handy for Fred if they had sacked McDermott earlier in the day.

A beautifully executed reraise, sir!

I am minded to think there will be fewer Omahas than previously. The championship game was in the twenties. Might also be a question over how many snaps they have, if Seattle do well and run the clock down.

Am genuinely interested in views on this. Can't be a worse market than trying to pick first touchdown, can it?

I'm going to have the final say on this.

As clear as it seems that the intent was for the bets to be for Fred, they shouldn't be allowed at this late stage. It would set a bad precedent.
Whilst we all might agree that tikay would not normally speculate on markets such as these for his personal account, issues might not be so clear in the future on different bets and we should avoid any future difficulties by drawing a clear line now.

To confirm, these bets should not be included for Fred.

I believe that some charity that Manning has an interest in gets some money every time that he says Omaha in the Super Bowl.
He may not be thinking about that when he is playing for the big prize but it may be worth considering.
