The Great After-timing Thread (screenshots req'd)

gnolan

Thought this might be a good idea for a thread. Might save the "i put 100 on South Africa to beat France 2-1" posts.

It may not last long, i don't know whether people would agree with a dedicated thread but we'll see i suppose.

I'l start it off with these two.

Last night on Argentina and SK



AND

one from a while ago, PL accumulator



Villa won by the way

glanman

nice accum....

Verance

Just logged into Betfair there to back USA to qualify versus Ghana, expected it to be around evens as it should have been pretty much 50/50, saw Ghana were 6/4!! I couldn't afford not to back them at that price! Ghana go 2-1 up a minute later

In all fairness, you're some yoke to be giving out about lying about bets, considering you magically changed a e100 bet to a 10er once it lost.

Oh and:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

if id known he was that price i would have had a bit of it! that was massive for a man with his world cup goalscoring record, good spot headshot

You should read the World Cup bets forum a bit more Dots, Verance i think it was pointed that bet out last night, cracking bet indeed, fair play Headshot onwards and upwards from here

Cavehill Red

I did pretty well yesterday.

digme

dotsflan

what price was lu at the start of the match?

digme

9.729
I bet on him in the third set he was on fire.

Cavehill Red

Ta for the thanks, lads.
I did pretty well today too, but I suspect most people did.

It's probably going against the spirit of this thread to show a losing bet but this might act as a salutary tale. Very occasionally I look at the upcoming weekends action and try to do a "measured" (I hope) accumalator of only 3 or 4 matches.

I sat down in front of the paper on Saturday morning. I felt England were not suddenly going to recover form and were ripe for the taking. Meath's forwards had seriously impressed me and the Dubs were mediocre v Wexford.

I thought Sligo would beat Galway after seeing their respective opening matches. However instead of being cautious and covering the draw (which referees (sub)consciously seem to play for in the GAA world eg Sligo +1 or +2 I was influenced by the astronomical outcomes coming up on the betslip and also the symmetry of the bet ie all matches with minus handicaps.

I was in one of those devil-may-care moods and stuck a freebet which I got back from Isner - Mahut from PP.

60 bucks brought in....................................€7020

Turned over to England match as Sligo annihalating Galway. Germany doing the business. Switched back - Sligo 5 points up a minute to go. The beers were flowing and the company good. Germany do the business. Meath start destroying Dublin. Getting increasingly excited. Had I finally beaten the bookies? And then to check score of the bet I had been least worried about. No....oh no. Galway had scored 5 points in injury time.

In future I will keep the individual accumulator bets as cautious as possible as the returns are so good even when the odds are evens. Of course will I ever spot three value oppurtunities simultaneously like that again?:rolleyes:

Cavehill Red

That's awful luck, Geezer.
I think we've all been there before.
Thanks for the salutory reminder that you can be spot on in most of your analysis and get the difficult picks nailed on, yet still end up giving the bookies money if you go down the accie route.

You have periods??

CodeMonkey

I don't actually watch football, probably seen one full match in this world cup. Have another E600 profit on paddypower but I've done all my scorecast betting on betfair cause I have an account and it has better odds.

lol at the 4 euro one, though it would never come in hence the small stake

digme

I had over 1.5 goals but since 3 penos and no goals later
I said why not take a real gamble and bet on spain to win in 90 mins,
so at minute 73 I went ahead and put a 100 euros on at 2.40
Very happy.

El Horseboxo

700 profit total for today as i lost a 50 euro bet on Messi to score anytime.

Still not bad for a days work though.

digme

that's some serious profit, if i was you id be out on the lash

Excellent work, you shopuld be delighted with yourself

Awful unlucky Geezer fella, I would've absolutely collapsed if that was me.

Headshot, nice bets but more importantly, what's Windows 7 like?

Vurnon San Benito

Sure I'm as well to post up my bet from weeks ago, make me look half decent



Twas only a tiny stake, but a win's a win.

Yeah been on a good streak lately. Just going big stakes on singles around the evens mark. Used to do lots of trebles and accumulators hoping to win big. But having much more luck when all i need is one outcome. Anyways was out during the week so gonna save a big chunk of it for an all day session for the Dubs double header next Saturday.

digme

I always like seeing people win loads from the bookies
Ya stick to them big singles,less outcomes and more money for you bud, enjoy your day out haha

digme

Have to post this one.

Sergio martinez was a huge under dog and everyone though Kelly Pavlik was going to beat him up badly,I though otherwise !! I bet everything I had.

Kod-box

I take it Martinez won?

good going dude...and to all, ive had the worst weekend ive had probably all year so nothing to post lol

digme

Ah thanks.
Ya he won it on points,was some tense fight,sitting in bed at 5:30 am shouting at the telly. Ah did ya,had a bad one myself last week,things will turn around,they always do

Kod-box

jaysus waiting on the decision musta been a nervous few mins haha

ya, i wont dwell on this weekend, Brazil and Argentina going out of the world cup pretty much done all my long term bets though, had a few quid on Villa 1st scorer tonight though and after 2 missed pens and a post hit before he scored maybe my luck has changes lol

digme

Was some funny match to watch,after the third peno i couldn't help but just laugh,was hilarious. Both of them going out was a shock all right , germany holand final !!!!

El Horseboxo

Suppose this is worthy of posting up in here as well. Stuck it in the GAA thread.



Serious money to be made from the in play bets on the GAA. Hopefully Kilkenny and Galway can bring me more of the same.

How did you do in the Kil v GAlway game el Horsebox?

Put 150 on KK to get over 23.5 points but they only finished with 22. Made some of it back by putting 100 on the game to finish with less than 42.5 points at 1.87. Settled at 37 as far as i remember. Time for an aul withdraw i think and no more bets till the WC resumes.

Vurnon San Benito

El_Horseboxo, you're cleaning up this weather. Keep it up!

This was my best in the last 3 months

Was fairly confident with the England Germany game aswell

Not much I know

go on ya good thing

matt1958

Very nice Headshot. Hopefully covers you for Ranhiem:rolleyes::D

El Horseboxo

Had 250 on Brazil to win outright as well so the winnings aren't all profit. The odd amount on the Spain bet was because i had just won it on a 200 euro baseball treble. I cleared my account of everything other than the 200 so the Spain stake was my entire account on it.

Big bet. Big risk. Big pay off.

Headshot

fair ****ing play horse, I was also considering of lumping all my winnings of 500 euro on spain to lift the trophy but I just didnt have the cojones

that 500 euro will go towards my new satellite system

but fair play mate, your one of the best gamblers here

Vurnon San Benito

Not much really but I won't complain leaving the World Cup with profit in my back pocket



Needed 10 corners, game finished up with 10 in the ninety minutes. Happy out. Thank you Espana.

Gavin "shels"

Not huge, but a winner is a winner. Didn't know that top-scorer is just paid out as placed odds when there's a deadheat.:mad::mad:
