FT: Ajax v Vitesse 4-1

Made a small profit from this one. I layed under 4.5 goals at 1.28 in the 20th minute. The first half ended 0-0 but Ajax upped their game after the break with three goals in the space of 15 minutes. I traded out at 1.61 after 3rd goal. All in all, not bad... although I chickend out.

I wouldn't say selling a bet is chickening out Redsar especially as you would have lost money if you hadn't sold. Good luck with the rest of your bets over the weekend.

Early kick off.......half time Yeovil 0-1 Sheffield - I have now layed the Sheff United win at 1.42 (small bet)

Small lay of Everton winning at Blackburn @ 2.52

Thanks mate. I was only kidding about chickening out. After a scoreless first half I was happy to sell with any profit. Today, I made a profit on Southampton and Bundesliga games. The other two games were a dissapointment, especially Chelsea after an early goal. I left it too long thinking there would be more goals in the first half. Madrid game is tomorrow.

Unlucky with the Chelsea game, I thought they would get a few more because the central defence of Norwich is their weak point. It sounds like there could have been a lot more goals in the Leicester game.

 

[redsar]

Chelsea were struggling against WBA too but I thought they might click against Norwich. They aren't in top form yet. As for Leicester, probably... I traded out at 2-1 after half an hour and didn't follow the rest of the game.

 

[redsar]

FT: Zaragoza v Real Madrid 0-6

I made a small profit on this one too. Layed under 4.5 goals at 1.29, traded out at 1.56 (after second goal)

 

[Pesam]

After the weekend's bets the season profit now stands at £450.

 

[Pesam]

Sorry I've left it late but I honestly didn't expect to be betting tonight on the johnstone's Paint trophy!

3 Small lays of both Sheffied teams winning and also a lay of Crawley winning.

 

[SummerOnions]

Made a profit of 26p.

Rolling in it!

Soccer / Southend v Crawley Town : Match Odds 30-Aug-11 19:45 30-Aug-11 21:45 28.53

The £50 loss on Crawley includes a £6 loss on my 3% challenge so is actually a £44 loss on this thread - so an overall £10 profit puts me on +£460.

 

[Pesam]

Very speculative...................£15 lay of Romania beating Luxembourg to win £50

 

[Pesam]

Swindon v Rotherham.

Small lay of Swindon winning.

£20 Gareth Evans 1st goalscorer 16/1

Edit: Half time 1-1............I've done a small £5 cover bet on 3-1 to Swindon.

I think we need to stay away from betting on International football.

 

[danwms]

Yeah did not do too well there.

 

[SummerOnions]

got bored of all this profit staying at the same level and decided to put £50 on us to beat Stoke at the weekend

*crosses fingers*

 

[amber cabs]

Villa are a big price to beat everton at 3s this weekend imo.

 

[Pesam]

Small lay of Crawley winning at Morecambe @ 2.0

Medium lay of Sheff United winning at Scunthorpe@ 2.54

Small lay of Carlisle winning at home to Hartlepool @ 2.2

Small lay of Bury winning at home to Rochdale @ 2.32

Small lay of Middlesbro winning at Burnley @ 2.6

 

[Pesam]

Bets are going very well apart from Middlesbro.

Scunthorpe aremy biggest bet and although they are 1-0 up they are also down to 10 men so I have sold much of the liability in that bet i.e. I've gone from a liability of £200+ to a liability of £60 and potential profit is down to £100.

 

[Pesam]

Some half time bets. Layed Barnsley winning at home to Leicester (currently 1-0 to Barnsley) small lay at 1.8

Small lay of Watford winning at Reading @ 2.2

Wow, just before I pressed send I see that Leicester have equalised 🙂 I even thought Andy King would come on at half time and give them control - it was him who scored!

 

[Pesam]

Speculative to say the least at 0-3 down - £4 on Bolton to draw with United at 150/1.

 

[Pesam]

£14 on Goodwillie 1st goalscorer @ 13.5 (a better price than I originally got for my 3% bet).

Edit: Now up to £28 on an average price of 14.0

 

[Pesam]

Small lay of Torquay beating Cheltenham @ 1.98

Very small lay of Port Vale beating Bradford City @ 2.08 (i.e. bet above = £60, this bet = £30.)

Small lay of Wigan beating Palace @ 2.68

 

[Pesam]

Overall, between the weekend and last night, a decent profit of £280 (the 3 bets I've marked (*) are not included as they are from my "3% challenge".

Profit for the season now stands at £350

[redsar]

One question. When in-play results go against you and it's almost certain you will lose do you spread the loss equaly on all outcomes or you try to speculate a bit more ...
