That's some nice stuff there, Gary. Personally I would've withdrawn £105 so that I have a £100 profit, it just seems so much... grander.

All my money is tied up in the JPT since I accidentally threw Southampton/Draw into my mix of last nights games. Hopefully they come through and I have some playing money.

It only returns me something like £4.50 but it's something to build on... again. I really should've been looking to turn that starter £5 into like £70.


Edit: Awesome! Another free £5 bet from Bet365. I love these guys

haha yeah, I was tempted, but wanted the £30 to play with

Rochdale are crap. .. I already covered my fiver though, by putting £25 on the tennis before at 1/5.

Southampton looks in too Saul..

this is mainly for mocking alvin, i know he likes to back on the NFL, but anyone else who is into it too...

you ever heard of a thing called a teaser bet? if i can sign up to an american site i think ill give it a go.

if you pick a team on the spread then say you have a 6 point teaser you get those extra points to add to the team youve backed. so if i had dallas at -3 on the spread with a 6 point teaser they'd be +3 so if they lost by 2 or better id win.

i was looking at the cowboys (vs. packers), colts (vs. patriots) and the 49ers (vs. bears) with a 6 point teaser which gives all teams +3. odds were 2.80 i think! just hoping i can join up on the american sites

You should stick with the double chances or sure things. It's better at making money long term, saying that you've won £130 and I'm 41p down

I'm glad I didn't predict Rochdale tonight. I had a feeling they'd *bleep* it up. I'm more confident on their away form than home and this being a cup game, I just had the feeling of Luton winning it.

£4.59 in my account though which is great. I'm going to try and save the free bet until the latest possible date.


Double chancing on Carlisle and MK Dons with the draw may not be bad bets this weekend. Bristol Rovers are in horrible form and Charlton are on a downward spiral too. If you like big odds then backing MK Dons to win Charlton may not be a bad bet at 11/4. Personally I think I may take them on the double chance at 4/7.

#4. Don't bet when drunk. Trust me, just don't.

Haha. Who to trust?

I might try betting on an horse when drunk but I shouldn't do football betting whilst drunk.


I don't know what to go for this weekend. I'm not going to bet on anything tonight as there doesn't seem to be anything decent. I don't know whether to do my safety bet or use my teams syndicate bet. With only £4.59 to play with, I don't know what to do

Hopefully I can get my bank account sorted as well before the weekend so that I can start laying on Betfair. I'd like to lay Exeter and Brighton for £20 at something like 5/1 with a bank of £200.


Edit: I'm actually very tempted to bet on Spain U17s at 9/5 in the Semis away at Nigeria the hosts.

Is that tonight yeah? I may get on that actually. Spain looked rather good against Uruguay the other night. Even if they did get took to pens, they still looked by far the better team..

I've stupidly put £25 on Murray & Nadal to win tonight. Odds of 1/2. Fingers crossed a. Also got £2 on Higgins & Murphy in the snooker.

Yeah, the game's tonight. I'm going to lump the lot of my £4.59 on it to hopefully win £8.26 and have £12.85 for the weekends games. If I lose it all then I just place my £5 free bet, no big deal.

Good luck with that bet. I wouldn't mind getting on the Snooker but I'd rather just stick to football betting since O'Sullivan cost me last time around

haha yeah. I've got quite a bit of uni work to do tonight, so just wanted to place a few bets, i.e tennis & snooker which I can casually keep an eye on. Not too fussed about the Snooker bet - probably wont come off - but really need the tennis one to come in!

Yeah that's pretty much all your play money down the drain if it loses Good luck.

Just stuck all my money on Spain. Rewards of £8.26. I wouldn't even wipe my arse with those kinds of winnings a few weeks back, haha. My lack of greed is causing me to win more though.

haha good luck. I've just put my last £3 on over 2.5 goals in that match.

Murray won the first set 6-1 in 23 mins, so feeling pretty confident about the tennis..

He is 4-1 down in the second set though. I have some money on him to win as well, but in 3 sets so not so bad. Kinda hoping he loses this set, haha.

Shit, that would have been a better idea Oh well, these odds are too good to turn down.

As long as the Tennis wins then you're in profit for the night, right?

Yeah, I get £37.50 back from the tennis if Murray gets his act together. Which will be +£7.50 for the day. I may have to go watch Murray now, he is making me nervous ha

Over 2.5 was good odds too. 1.96 I think..

Lost the second set 6-3..
