This is not true , nor are any of your stories of million pound bets that you are anyone you know have placed Free Twitter tipsters are certainly not worth quitting your job to follow , but as a bit of fun trying to turn 10 quid into a grand they are pretty harmless , is certainly not worth making up your stories to turn people away
poa wrote: » Where did I say I bet a million on a tennis match? I think you are mistaken. Read my posts properly, then quote me correctly. Then make your point. Yes, I do 2-3 months research typically on my 3-4 bets per year. I do this whether its 500 or 2K, and did the same over 16 years of gambling right up to my max bets of 7 figures. That is what it takes to win, and win, and win. Hard work and dedication pays, and so my accounts with the main bookies are limited now as a result. I like to bet on Tennis, Boxing, Oscars, Politics. I don't get involved with other markets. With regard to my tennis example of Djokovic and 1.1, I was trying to clarify that dead certs do exist in some 50/50 cases with no draws. Upsets can and do happen, but they are rare. Of course 1.1 isn't value so one must lump on, but its low risk. 7 figures on 1.1 is much safer than on 1.5 etc. I think you get the point now. The only time I have mentioned 1 million, is when I gave the example of how the EU referendum market has moved from 33M to 34M on Bremain after MP Jo was murdered. The point being, that to make 1M move in a market; yes, there were some 7 figure pro-gambler backing Bremain, as they do daily. I could break this down further, but I think you get it now. Don't muddle what I have said to try and run me down, show me up, or slag me with misquotes. The only person you are showing up here is yourself. I talk sense based on 16 years of my gambling, and fact. My ultimate point being; that doing 2-3 months research personally on even a small 500 Euro bet, is better than trusting an online tipster who is an affiliate marketer paid by a bookie to give tips.

They are the only two I can get any weight on with now. I have gambled for 16 years, now its nothing like I used to; mainly due to the bookies limits. These days I place 3-4 moderate 500-2K bets per year and do 2-3 months in-depth research on each bet. I would like to get more on Bremain, but my main bet of the year; and funds are tied up in Clinton to win POTUS in November. Nothing special though only 2K, but I consider it a dead cert. My days of backing 7 figures are over now, I got what I wanted from gambling over 16 years. I was never pro, but used to back more heavy, and more frequently. Upsets do happen too. My biggest bet of the year was meant to be on Wilder v Povetkin. I had 4 figures on Wilder, but due to Povetkin's positive test for Meldomium the fight was cancelled and my bet was voided. Its a shame as I considered that a dead cert. So I am now going for Bremain, Tyson Fury, Hilary Clinton. They are my bets for this year and that's it in November. Wilder would have pumped things up nicely, but what can one do? Somethings are just not meant to be.

poa wrote: » Dead certs do exist of course. When one sees Djokovic playing a 20 seed in an ATM and his odds are 1.1 v 5.0 for example. Djokovic is a dead cert. Remember unlike football, there are no draws in tennis. So its a 50/50 win/lose bet with the odds-odds on favourite at 1.1. You think that isn't a dead cert? This is what a pro will lump 7 figures on all day long with confidence. OK so its only a small margin, but a dead cert profit margin. Short odds, low risk, low value, but dead cert. Upsets rarely happen at 1.1 with a world number 1 playing world 22 etc.

poa wrote: » Here is some good advice when it comes to gambling. Never bet on tips given by an online tipster who is an affiliate marketer for a bookies. Think about it, they are paid by a bookies to tip. They are not gambling with their own money, they are being paid money by a bookie win or lose. So you are now betting on someone's tips; knowing they get paid by a bookie win or lose? A fool and his money are easily parted. When it comes to pro-gamblers with insider knowledge; the last thing they will do is come on social media and give tips; or insider knowledge. The successful pro-gamblers keep that very quiet. Mugs punters will always follow tipsters, when they don't have their own edge. My advice is if you need the help of a tipster to make money gambling, then stop gambling. Its throwing good money after bad. One gets what one pays for when it comes to gambling information; a free tipping service on Twitter is worth just that; nothing. So the advice is; stay away from online tipsters. Do your own research, and trust your own instincts. I get asked for tips all the time, and will give them when I have money backed personally; and I know it's a dead cert. I don't like to lose, nor do I like to see others lose money; so I will never take payment for tips, nor give them unless I have quality information that something is going to come off. For example, I was ready to place a 7 figure amount on a 50/50 event, and a pro-gambler I know advised against it; despite the shirt odds indicating it was a dead cert. I was convinced the money in the market knew. But the pro had insider knowledge that it wasn't going to come off; so against my instinct I left it alone, and sure enough the bet didn't come off. I would have done my balls in had I backed it. Now at the time social media was on fire with these so called tipsters giving the heads up about said dead cert; but they were wrong. I had a lucky escape, and learned the the pro-gamblers have the insider knowledge; and not the online tipsters that claim to. I have personally seen people back 7 figure sums on the basis of an online tipsters tip and lose it all. Don't do it. Before I place a bet, I do around 2-3 months in-depth research. And even then sometimes I leave it alone if the risk/value margin isn't as one would like. If one cannot put that effort into gambling, one shouldn't be doing it; and certainly one shouldn't be betting on the basis of online tipsters tips. It's a quick route to the poorhouse.

Last night we picked up our first loser in FIVE Banker Trebles as Republic Of Ireland, who I thought were the biggest bankers of all three, were beaten at home by Belarus! So today we get back on the winner's trail with another Banker Treble. PLUS, if there's enough interest I've potentially got something REALLY SPECIAL for you all for Euro 2016. It's just over a week to go until the tournament starts and I for one cannot wait! LIKE AND COMMENT below if you want another Banker Treble today. If you're new here then I suggest that you get a bet365 account
Bad Man Tipster Sorry guys. I got this Spain v South Korea game completely wrong! Hands up.South Korea unbeaten in 23 before this, and had only conceded ONE goal in their last 15 matches, but clearly the gulf in class between Europe and Asia is still HUGE.
