Tips for Tikay

[rinswun]

Be nice to see a world champion called Hawkins.

Jake is incredulous as he's never seen anyone with his surname who isn't family before.

Surely you've told him about Long John Silver's cabin boy Jack.

I haven't or the oldest American pro team sportsman either.

He's not quite as old as the legendary Jaromit Jagr, Keith. Jagr playing at least another year too.

Note for tighty re wiggins.  It will not be officially announced until this afternoon so to keep the boss happy I think it can be settled tomorrow and go into the may figures to give him the kickstart to the month he wants.

-£100 Leicester's loss to Chelsea confirmed what we long knew, that they wouldn't finish top half. Horrible bet from start to finish, but not the last stale bet to be taken in the next few weeks

Tighty runs a tight ship on the accounting, nice April numbers!  would need to be a bit more flexible to work for Tesco though.

If we can get through the weekend without Kate popping then the Royal baby will be bringing profit.

April 20th - April 26th +£30
April 27th - May 3rd + £40
May 4th - May 10th +£20

It could have been more but prices were collapsing just as Fred got on.

I suspect a few will be on May at 10/1 with PP. Now best price 2/1 but seems unlikely given the below outside the hospital wing.

Stay off the Vindaloo tomorrow flower.

Please hold for one more day...

The ECB gets some stick but their scores app is really good imo.

I'm not sure why they even bother listing cricket on flashscores, the scores tend to be pretty hard to figure out =/

Quick question...someone I know (it actually isn't me this time) has been offered to set up accounts for a pro. What's the going rate? Feel free to pm me / delete this if worried ...

[hector62]

Bautista Agut is through after a 6-0  6-3 win over Stepanek.

Emphatic, well done hector.

When does he next play?

Ok.  I'm not going to make any friends here - but do we need to stroke Hector's ego every time an odds on shot wins?   I don't remember a tennis match update from Hector when Nadal (tournament jolly) got ripped up by Fognini last week.  (tighty updated it on the dailies of course)  I imagine I'm alone but this feature of TFT winds me up no end - it's like the old betfair forum.  I assume Hector has a positive ROI but do we really need to congratulate every little progress and ignore when players crash and burn?

Dung happy to check out of thread, but I spit feathers internally every time I see it.

Morning Dungbeetle.

Thanks for this post. I'd just like to clarify exactly what our arrangement is here.

I am expected to research and find profitable bets across a number of sports.

I have to write a detailed proposal of why they are good bets.

I have to give a detailed account after each event of how the bet fared.

You maintain the right to be abusive towards me or anyone who writes anything nice about my selections whenever you run low on addictive substances.


The only question I have is this. What's in it for me?

[BigAdz]

FWIW

I wouldn't mess with Hector.

I've met him and he makes Brock Lesnar look like Ronnie Corbett.

I have paid up to £1k before for a totally clean from gambling ever bank account.  That was in the days when sign up bonuses and free bets were more valuable to be fair.  I have also rented a Hills account for £25 a day before to arb horses years ago as well.   There are so many different ways to do it. 

One word of warning for the person you know.  There is a lot more admin nowadays involving doing this for a pro.  Scanning copies of ID's etc for accounts which you never had to do in the past.  The potential effect it will have on their ability to get/renew their mortgage/other credit facilities as banks clamp down on certain types of spending.  Depending on who they actually bank with they might actually get their current account closed for 'too many gambling transactions'.

Anytime i buy a bank account i make it very clear it is not money for old rope.  There is work to do/risks to take.

He apologised for the post.

Just accept the apology, lay off with the sarcasm and move on?

Eta: actually after rereading I meant bookie accounts not bank accounts...
