Villain to turn €10 into ????

    Ok I just saw someone has a simalar thread going so mods if this isn't on or you want to merge work away

    Anyway I put €10 on my betfair account a few weeks ago when YE Yang bet Woods I backed Yang at 10 and laid him at 6 so €40 profit.

    Then I backed Villa against Pool only €5 at 11.50 and laid at 3.7 so €37.05 profit

    Next was Utd V Arsenal at half time I backed Utd €7 at 6.43, backed €2 at 12.5 on a draw late on to cover myself so proft €34.20

    Now I started to think maybe I could use the bit I know about soccer to actually have a good chance of winning some money, I know €10 was a small start but I was up to €111 now I thought lets give it a go I enjoy watching soccer and as the ad says "it matters more when you have money on it".

    In play betting seems to open up a lot of opportunities especially to cover bets already placed.

    So anyway my bets that followed that were:

    Market Start time Settled date Profit/loss (€)
    Soccer / Ghana v Sudan : Match Odds 06-Sep-09 18:00 06-Sep-09 20:39 1.71
    Soccer / Chile v Venezuela : Match Odds 06-Sep-09 02:30 06-Sep-09 04:34 -14.00
    Soccer / Argentina v Brazil : Over/Under 2.5 goals 06-Sep-09 01:30 06-Sep-09 02:52 4.70
    Soccer / Paraguay v Bolivia : Match Odds 05-Sep-09 23:30 06-Sep-09 01:26 8.36
    Soccer / Peru v Uruguay : Match Odds 05-Sep-09 21:30 05-Sep-09 23:26 6.65
    Soccer / Croatia v Belarus : Match Odds 05-Sep-09 19:30 05-Sep-09 21:22 2.85
    Soccer / Bulgaria v Montenegro : Match Odds 05-Sep-09 18:30 05-Sep-09 20:23 2.62
    Soccer / Charlton v Brentford : Match Odds 05-Sep-09 12:15 05-Sep-09 14:10 6.17
    Soccer / Luton v Crawley Town : Match Odds 01-Sep-09 19:45 01-Sep-09 21:48 5.22
    Soccer / Newcastle v Leicester : Match Odds 31-Aug-09 19:45 31-Aug-09 21:41 5.24
    Soccer / Aston Villa v Fulham : First Goalscorer 30-Aug-09 16:00 30-Aug-09 18:25 12.16
    Soccer / Aston Villa v Fulham : Match Odds 30-Aug-09 16:00 30-Aug-09 17:49 -2.00
    Never used that tag before I like it

    I also put €5 on a horse called Asset which turns out to be more of a donkey.

    So my current bank total is €144.08, as you can see I'm sticking to low odd matches now, not mad about Internationals will mostly stick to UK soccer matches.

    Anyway target is €1000 could get there or could be to 0 in a few weeks lets see how it goes I'll keep this updated if mods allow :D

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,951 ✭✭✭✭Villain


    Ok Next Bet is on Kettering in the Conference Tuesday night against Gateshead. €10 win at 1.61

    Kettering are 4th in the league 2 draws and 3 wins in last 5 games.
    Gateshead are 2nd from bottom have 3 losses 1 draw and 1 win in last 5


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,951 ✭✭✭✭Villain


    Kettering won easy 4-0 profit 5.79

    Bank is €149.87 with no bets in play.

    Think I'll probably give the internationals tomorrow a miss have a good look in the morning first


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 504 ✭✭✭biscuits1981

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,951 ✭✭✭✭Villain


    No problem Biscuits1981, don't put your house on anything based on me though, my idea is to get profit by slow patient betting, i.e. if nothing looks a good bet don't bet.

    Done a treble for those three as well

    1,2 and 3 Odds 4.49 Stake €5.00 Profit €17.45


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,951 ✭✭✭✭Villain


    First bad day today, Rotherham and Charlton both drew, Charlton had 2 goals disallowed, ah well have to take the rough with the smooth, thankfully Bournemouth won to make it not a total disaster


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,951 ✭✭✭✭Villain


    Put €4 on Utd at 4.2 after Spurs scored, 1-2 to Utd at HT, heres hoping we can make back some of the earlier losses


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,951 ✭✭✭✭Villain


    Utd did indeed win so bank back to €144.63 not a bad bounce back, some lads in the Soccer forum reckon Utd were available at 9's but highest trade on betfair was 4.5

    Utd @9's a goal down! Thats utter rubbish


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,951 ✭✭✭✭Villain


    Yea I think the bet they meant was before the game, for united to go behind and win which is obviously different, still think 4.2 for Utd 1 down to Spurs was good value


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,951 ✭✭✭✭Villain


    Don't usually like backing the away team but Willem II v Feyenoord, Feyenoord win €5 @ 1.74

    Ciudad Juarez v Toluca, Toluca win €2 at 2.3

    Villian, i too am going to start at €10 and follow your bets if that is ok with you?

    Tis just looks like fun and even if i lose it all after a few weeks, it seems like €10 well spent on the interest i will have in it (although mine will be with Boyles so different odds)

    I will post results :D

    No bother only thing is I don't always get to post my in play bets straight away and tbh in play is where you can make money or recover losses easier imo.

    Take yesterday for example, I got Utd at 4.2 when Spurs scored other than that I would have been in a loss and also after I bet on Everton when they went 1 up I had to bet on Fulham to win to recover my bet when Fulham equalised.

    But I'm only betting small money and it was only a €10 investment, also obviously the more games that are played the more form we have to study, most Spanish football teams have only played 2 games.

    I'll post next bets soon, thinking of MK Dons but we'll have a look around

    Botafogo RJ won so loss for the night back to €3.80.

    Thanks for the support lads, I just look at the fixtures and study form really, soccer form I can understand, horses I'll never be able to follow.

    Take Newport, 2nd in the league unbeaten in 16 games stretching back to last season. Have only conceded 5 goals. Weymouth are bottom of the league with only 1 win in 10 games. Sadly this was an upset but as long as they don't happen too often we'll be ok
