    Hi,

    I've read on here from a few people that it is very easy get their online account limited or closed by a bookie. I've set my mate the challenge of having this done to him, just out of curiosity to see how easy this would happen and also it must mean you're winning. He won a big horse acca off a 5er and has about 400 quid in the account now. How should he proceed to get this account limited? Any advice on what bet sizes, minimum /maximum odds, particular sports?

    I try hard not to get accounts limited , he already looks like a mug with a 5 pound bet on an acca.

    I sometimes do small bets like 5 quid accas on non value lines to prolong the life of an account , if you want to get limited just give it to me ill have it limited in about 1 hour :)

    Bet on big value line or money back specials only , take arbs , avoid accas and generally poor value bets, bet the max allowed for the money back special. Max out the sign up bonus.

    A friend opened a paddy power for me for Australia tennis open offer refund if wins first set and loses match, new account deposited 2k did 20 x 100 bets on tennis matches and was limited to 1 pound bets next day.

    Another friend opened a paddypower last time they had refund if draw in premier league i gave him list of games to take 1-0 2-1 and 2-0 on told him to deposit 1k and do 10 x 100 bets , 2 days later the account was useless.

    So for example,

    Given his stake, if he bet 100 on a horse @ evens and that horse went off @8/11. Would this be value betting?

    Just read the article on arbitration, it says 20-30% of people who do it are victims of hackers. Anyone have experience or heard of this happening?

    No. It's also Wikipedia so don't believe everything you read unless it's backed up.

    Hi mate. Sorry was out all day had few bets earlier and backed ireland here before start. That's prob it for night. If I was to have a bet just entering this game now I'd back England + 5 . Massive wind and they are dominating territory. That's just my view no money on that bet

    Wales to cover the 19 pointa against an abject looking Italy and an Italy yellow at 1.9 with Ladbrokes my investments for the opening game of the 6 nations .. (love this competition) All bets placed and im off to the pub to watch. Good luck if you follow (it would be wise)


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,078 ✭✭✭the whole year inn


    not today,few decisions didnt go our way,shame looked class at half time!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,666 ✭✭✭Howjoe1


    i was all over Italy +20. Wales were always going to hold a bit back. tough call tomorrow, but i think Ireland might just cover the handicap.

    The try at the start of the second half ruined the bet, I'm still not sure why it was given as it was plain day he threw it forward.

    On to the next one

    It was plainly forward - how did the TMO miss it? If you look at the lines on the pitch (the way it's cut or rolled, about 3 yards each??) you see it was thrown at the start of one and caught at the end of it. That try gave Italy renewed courage for the second half - but who knows what would have happened. I got burnt on no Italy yellow - thought Wales would dominate closer to the line more and discipline under pressure would cost Italy especially with the home crowd highlighting it....but not to be! :(

    I ended up backing Huget for first try in the France game and thanks to PP I got paid double the odds - so made a bit.

    Tomorrow is another day - hopefully availing of more doubling odds from PP!
