Right got 50 Euros down on England to win the tournament at 13-1, another 10 on Andy Carroll first scorer tonight at 8-1 and a cheeky 10 on a Group B forecast of Germany 1st and Denmark 2nd at 8-1. Bet from my heart today.

80 euros thank you very much

Nice bet!

And I'm incredibly disappointed you didn't bet it all on England winning the tournament. Really takes away from your other threads.

France!! FRANCE!?!!!

 

[Sir Calumn]

I have 10 on an England win, 10 on defoe to score at any point and 10 on under 1.5 goals in the match, so if England win 1-0 with defore getting the goal I am quids in!

 

[yoyo913]

Was this the Ukraine game ?

At least it was only 10.

 

[Sir Calumn]

Yeah I lost the lot

Still maintain they were smart bets, I was just unlucky, Defoe DID score, he just had it unfairly disallowed, and the game remained under 1.5 goals until the very end (dont get me wrong, I am very pleased we salvaged the draw), but it would only taken one of those to work out and the spread would have been in profit.

I'm gonna spread £100 around this weekend on EPL matches so feel free to give me some tips!

 

[Sir Calumn]

£15 on a draw between Leeds and Everton after normal time, at 5-1, £15 on under 2.5 goals in normal time at 3-1.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

1-0 Leeds. Good start. They should retreat into their shell.

 

[Sir Calumn]

Yeah I think so, just so long Everton dont make big substitutions in the second half and smash in two in close sucession

 

[Sir Calumn]

Bah clear cut Everton penalty not given...... once again referee is gonna cost me my money

 

[Sir Calumn]

10 on Yesil to score at any point in the match at a quite miserly 3.5 to 1, 5 on QPR to score in both halves, 5 deposited for inplay betting.

 

[Sir Calumn]

Alright the last 5 on Liverpool to win at 3 to 1 (made in minute 24), now all we need is Yesil to score the winning goal.

 

[Sir Calumn]

Ah man after Reading got the equalizer I was so tempted to reinvest all the winnings from the QPR in both halves bet on a Reading win at 8 to 1, damnit I need to be bolder (assuming they hold onto this lead that is!)

 

[Sir Calumn]

Tonights bets:

£10 on Isco to score at any point, if it doesnt happen Arnau has to pay me back
£10 on Malaga to win
£10 on Man City to score in both halves
£10 on a Real Madrid win

 

[Jaboldinho]

Loads of different bets with different combos. Mostly counting on Malaga and Man City.

 

[Sir Calumn]

Yeah the odds were good on Malaga considering how good they were against Zenit. I like "to score in both halves bets" and Man City had the best balance of good odds to likelihood. Real Madrid is supposed to be my safe bet, odds were poor but really it should be a formality.

I might stake £10 more to take it to an even 50 if anyone has any tips?

 

[Jaboldinho]

Montpellier seems like good value @5.50 or w/e. Schalke haven't been too convincing lately.

 

[Sir Calumn]

I thought about it but it's away and beating Germans in Germany aint easy and they are completely new to this, could get thumped.....

I just put 5 on a PSG win at 3.25 because I reckon they have to click sooner or later

 

[Sir Calumn]

Goalscorer odds are so crap these days....... looking down people like Tevez and Aguero are evens to score at any point in the match, I mean they are good scorers but evens implies a 50-50 chance and no-one has a 50-50 chance of scoring except maybe Messi.....

 

[Sir Calumn]

**** it I just found Montpelier at 7.5 so I put another fiver down....... let's hope you are lucky Jabo
