Double Chance Challenge

    Hi all!

    Recently I have been following a few challenges via Facebook. Mostly those 25-1000 Over 0.5 goal challenges. Crazy how many times this bet loses and daft how many times you have to bet £25 (€25) before you reach the final hurdle of £1000. Personally, I am wary about putting my trust or and money with those affiliate tipsters but each to their own.

    However, this did get me to wondering...was there a better market out there with good odds that could be used on one of these challenges? And I found the DOUBLE CHANCE football market can have good odds.

    I have been paper trailing this and from 20 selections, I lost just the one!

    So thought I would join here and document my selections.

    A few rules (of my own):

    1 - I'm only selecting DOUBLE CHANCE bets, I won't drift (or be tempted!) into other bets.
    2 - The odds will be around 1.20+ (no less) If lower I will put together a double/treble bet.
    3 - No hefty boast of €1000 here, my 1st challenge will see me aiming at €100.
    4 - It's called gambling for a reason so nothing guaranteed - These are not tips!

    Wish me luck guys!

    OOOpppppps!

    I made two practically identical posts. I will use THIS thread to chart progress (or dismal failure)


  • Registered Users Posts: 33 GirlOutWest


    STARTING STAKE: €10

    BET 1#

    Kuban Krasnodar v Sibir - AWAY or DRAW

    €10.00 = €21.00


  • Registered Users Posts: 33 GirlOutWest


    After the home team scored first, I panicked (for all of 5 minutes) then the away team got that lovely equalizer.

    1st bet complete, with very generous odds. Time to look out for 2nd. :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 33 GirlOutWest


    STARTING STAKE: €10

    BET 2#

    Bristol Rovers v Bolton - AWAY or DRAW

    €21.00 = €32.55




    Wish me luck!

    Bet 2# is looking good, away team at 0-2 so fingers crossed that will come in. Very good odds too, as the away team were the slight underdogs for some reason.

    All going well, Bet 3# up tomorrow :)

    STARTING STAKE: €10

    BET 3#

    Lokomotiva v Genk (In-Play 63 mins) DRAW or AWAY

    €32.55 = €40.00


  • Registered Users Posts: 33 GirlOutWest


    That was quick & easy....if only everything was as easy!

    Will post next bet tomorrow.........


  • Registered Users Posts: 33 GirlOutWest


    STARTING STAKE: €10

    BET 4#

    FK Mlada Boleslav U19 0-0 FK Pardubice U19 (In-Play H/T) DRAW or AWAY

    €40.00 = €65.00


    Going for the slight under dog here again but I like the stats. Wish me luck!


  • Registered Users Posts: 33 GirlOutWest


    Bet 4 in too @ Odds 1.68. Can't see why the odds favoured the home team for DC. Maybe priced up wrong? Anyway, a win is a win!

    After H/T the away team took the lead and even got themselves a penalty (which they missed) but the game finished 0-1 ;)

    If I had started with €25 and not €10 I would be sitting on €130.00 now. But my aim is to go from €10 to €100 so all good.

    Next bet up later today.....

    Another winner - The home team scored first straight after HT but luckily for me, the AWAY team equalized soon after. Bank now stands at €87.00 from €10 in 5 bets- Almost have a challenge complete (when/if I hit the €100 mark) so wish me luck!


  • Registered Users Posts: 33 GirlOutWest


    STARTING STAKE: €10

    BET 6# ***FINAL BET! ***


    FC Nordsjaelland v Randers (K.O. 5pm) DRAW or AWAY

    €87.00 = €115.00



    Odds @ 1.35


    Good luck me! :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 33 GirlOutWest


    YESSSS!!!! ** CHALLENGE COMPLETE **

    From €10 - €115 in 6 bets :)

    Think I will take out the €100 profit and start again tonight with a slightly higher stake of €15.

    Challenge 2 will be €15 - €200 in 6-8 bets.

    However, I find this forum a little on the quiet side, feel I have been talking to myself (where is everyone!!? lol) so I might give the regular updates a miss on here.

    If anyone does the DOUBLE CHANCE and I would recommend it as it has great odds and the stats are pretty reliable, then I wish you good luck!

    Fair play to you, what a scorcher of a start. Best of luck in your next quest.


  • Registered Users Posts: 33 GirlOutWest


    Time for a new challenge, me thinks.

    I will start a new thread/challenge so as not to confuse. :)
