Paddy Power Twitter Enhanced Specials

Some of the prices they give are great and only available for 20 mins or so.
I always miss it.

I am following there twitter 'pp offers but is there any way to get an email or some notification when they tweet there price boosts?
I tried googling it and I didnt really see anything that would work.

Any ideas??

Not to sure, I've only ever missed one since they started doing them(Hurricane Fly,because I forgot my bag in the pub with my laptop in it after too many pints).If you have any gambling friends just get them to text you when one pops up. Theres 4 or 5 of us that send a txt to each other when it comes online, so you'll never miss one.

Don't forget they are also favored more in Paddy Power's direction than you'd first think. If I have my counting right (counting is hard ) 4 of the last 6 have been duds, which is not good.

I started betting against them a while back (unless they are almost guaranteed - Hurricane Fly), and I think it is working out.

There have been 24 Facebook or Twitter specials so far (first was Simonsig at Cheltenham), 10 of which have won.

Total staked €593.75 (as per PP max allowed)
Profit-to-date €293.75 (49.47%)

I'll list them if you want

Also 5 of the last 6 have won (Utd to beat Everton enhanced to 1/1 the only loser)

Cheers - must have missed the Barca/Madrid qualification double. Are you sure it wasn't a Powerplay as opposed to a Facebook special

The 5 from the last 6 which won that I mentioned were

21-Apr - Cisse to score anytime 3/1
22-Apr - Man Utd (vs Everton) 1/1
22-Apr - Man City (vs Wolves) 1/1 - maybe Twitter only I think
25-Apr - Ronaldo to score anytime 1/1
27-Apr - Hurricane Fly 1/1
28-Apr - Liverpool (vs Norwich) 5/2

The previous 5 had all lost in fairness (incl Arsenal to beat Wigan enhanced to 1/1 from 2/7)

3 specials today which all won

Hooper to score in Old Firm 2/1
Chelsea (vs QPR) 1/1
Spurs (vs Blackburn) 1/1

Another winner today City 3/1. Is this only a temporary thing because its near the end of the season or have they done it throughout the season?
Hope they keep them coming for the euros and next season.
