EPL and

[Floydyboy]

Aston Villa v Fulham

C Palace v West Brom

Chelsea v Blackburn

Liverpool v Charlton

Norwich v Everton

Tottenham v Bolton

Man Utd v Arsenal

Middlesbrough v Portsmouth

Newcastle v Man City

Southampton v Birmingham


Arsenal... no need to expand
Everton...I dont see why they wont beat Norwich
Liverpool.short should win
Chelsea...Ditto
Middlesborugh.... a bit short should win but portsmouth have got a few players back ....well i wont be sticking my nose in there anyway

I like Bolton at a bit of odds but then again Im cheerin for em this year so I dont know if you call it a selection but I do think they can give spurs a shake at odds

[blackpantha]

Ill be putting some money on:

Chelsea to beat Blackburn
Liverpool to beat charlton
Juventus to beat Siena

[knowledge]

me too, black panther.

Here are the golden tips for EPL...

Under 2.5 goals in NORWICH-EVERTON

Under 2.5 goals in TOTTENHAM-FULHAM

Under 2.5 goals in SOUTHAMPTON-BIRMINGHAM

10 units on ARSENAL to win at $2.50
10 units on DRAW at $3.20
=guaranteed profit

LIVERPOOL to WIN
CRYSTAL PALACE-WBA = DRAW
SOUTHAMPTON-BIRMINGHAM = DRAW

read my other thread for Serie A.

I'm looking forward to watching another scoreless draw, in Norwich-Everton. :grin:

[knowledge]

faroutfantasies: you are already wrong.

10th minute, Kevin Kilbane for Everton.

1-0

hope that's the last of them.

it's not often i watch a game of football wanting NOT to see goals. this is a bit different.

[knowledge]

2-0 to everton now..

i'm screwed

[Northerly]

Knowledge,

You obviously know a fair bit about Soccer and I have followed a couple of your selections (particularly Champions League & UEFA Cup).
But I think you need to ease up on people who have made selections opposite to yours or ones you don't agree with. By all means justify your reasoning but your comments are a bit harsh (eg, wtf or "your wrong already" both directed at faroutfantasies "FOF")

Plus your not done yet. Still a chance.
Hopefully a goalless 2nd half

[Floydyboy]

Half time change ends

[knowledge]

ok northerly, sorry.. i just didn't want the guy to lose his money.

2-1 now.

my bet loses.


i advise u all to back 'over 2.5 goals' in tottenham match, i dont feel lucky today.

[Northerly]

that's ok, I was with you on the last bet as well. That was just a small interest bet.
But I think you should stick to your guns on the next one.
I'm a Spurs fan and I can't see more than 2 goals going in. And I've had a very lucky day on the horses so hang in there.
Or are you just doing you jinx thing again?
it worked last time.

[knowledge]

no I mean I've already backed under 2.5 goals heavily. and I'm feeling unlucky so I believe you should all back OVER 2.5 goals.

just when everything is going well, that's when things are going to start going bad.

[Northerly]

have faith, from here your overall handicapping looks sound.
With my Horse Betting I use a progressive stake and had a run of 5 outs until the last 2 bets today at $1.95 (happy to end the outs) then the big one at $7.50. Just stick to your guns.
I also use a similar Staking PLan on my Sportsbetting. Was on a run of 6 in a row until the current match, the only reason I backed it was I was at the start of the cycle. (stupid really)

[knowledge]

man i just feel so unlucky right now...

you might want to also lay West Ham.. I've backed them very heavily.

[Floydyboy]

settle down there old son the weekend is young

[knowledge]

nah, I'd say it's in a mid-life crisis. :razz:

Seriously though, all my money is on West Ham and under 2.5 goals in Tottenham.

I think WH should be safe but I have doubts about spurs-bolton.

what game is being shown now on fox sports? it doesn't say.

[Floydyboy]

No it dosent my internet tv guide dosent even show it might be bolton i think and liverpool later on

[Floydyboy]

Im on Bolton/Lpool double
Carn Sammys Boys

[knowledge]

1-0 Bolton

another goal inside first 10 mins

hrmmmmmmm....

[knowledge]

:grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin:

yes.... West Ham 1-0 up in 18th minute.

hold on now and I'll be ok..!

holding on is also what the score between spurs and bolton must do.. please may the scoreboard stay how it is, for Bolton's, Floydyboy's and my sake. :grin:

It's also big Sam's birthday.

[Floydyboy]

the west brom thing dosent look to be goin too well thats life i only had the one bet on em ....Im with you mr K 1-0 would be a good result Go the hammers

[knowledge]

2-0 West Ham!!!

in the bag, beautiful. less than half an hour gone and already seems safe. I like that. :smile:

[Floydyboy]

2-0

[Northerly]

I'm with you guys on the Spurs/Bolton clash, even though I'm a Spurs man.
Maybe an equaliser 30 seconds from the final whistle would be ok.

[knowledge]

well west ham are 3-1 up at half time. Don't look like losing from here.

Tottenham equalised through a Robbie Keane shot through the keepers' legs. 1-1 at half time.

what do you want to happen, Northerly? over 2.5 goals?

[Floydyboy]

Its too late one of us or both of us has to lose 1-1 I havent backed em under over Ive just got bolton in a double with liverpool....
I just decided to cheer em on this year its the underdog thing Ill take em with a banker each week for 6 dollars and see how it goes ill probably jag a few along the way I didnt even back em last week they were too short I dont have any team in particular i just like to see good teams play good football

[Floydyboy]

I wont lose any sleep if it stays at this score mind you i dont mind winning

[knowledge]

i'm almost positive we'll see another goal. Bolton looks more likely to score it as well, in my opinion.

Maybe Tottenham's record of under 3 goals in all their matches will end today, maybe Arsenal's record will break tomorrow?

who knows.

[Northerly]

Under 2.5, I wanted that goal at the end of the 2nd half, not the bloody 1st half

[Northerly]

I spewing. :mad: I can bet "In Play" on Betfair and I just tried to take $1.87 on Chelsea to score 1st after half time then at the exact time I hit the accept button the market froze when the was a penalty awarded to Chelsea.
now 3-0

[knowledge]

oh, yeh.. I see now. Me too, it's just not the right day for low scoring I guess. After watching so many low-scoring affairs I thought I could make some money off of the boredom. It backfires though.

Oh well, still we aren't losing yet! 37 mins left but it's possible.

On betfair under 2.5 is available for $3.20 and over is for $1.42.

Hopefully the over price gradually rises and rises....

[knowledge]

ohh no kidding. That's tough, 10 seconds separated you from making a lot of profit.

[Floydyboy]

You put your request in too early

[Floydyboy]

Chelsea are the ones i want to win ive got them with everton in a couple of accumulators

[Northerly]

under 2.5 is now into $2.00

[knowledge]

the "favourite" is now under 2.5 goals.
I'm watching this game and I have to say it looks like it'll end this way. Both teams just need to avoid any lapse in concentration, Okocha almost set up a goal then but due to the wet surface the ball skidded past. Terrible conditions so very hard to manage a clean shot unless in a goalmouth scramble, scrambles don't seem to be happening in this game so I say we don't look so bad now. I may be wrong though.

substitution: Defoe coming on. Hopefully he can't do anything productive (like most games). Good player though, Tottenham don't seem to be able to give sufficient service to their forwards. Redknapp isn't playing too well.

[knowledge]

f*ck

2-1 bolton

[Floydyboy]

Correct weight

[Northerly]

I dodged a bullet, after Bolton's 2nd goal I doubled up on "No Goal". PHEW!!!!!!!

[knowledge]

now i'm going to bet equal sums on the following...

Arsenal - $2.50
Draw - $3.20

safe.

[Floydyboy]

you have to ring up to bet in play and the minimum is $50 but its a free call

[Floydyboy]

I layed LPool after there first goal 100/16
IT means that if they lose or draw i pick up 100 less my 26 layed out on my accumulators and if they win i get back abit over 120 less the 16 on the lay bet .....I done good

[Floydyboy]

I looked at chelsea correct score any unquoted (4or more) but decided against it because it was only paying 8.10 hahaha ah well I backed em during the week to do that I backed LYON 10bucks and when i checked my account Id bloody layed em by mistake ...thats bloody cheezy aint it

[sportznut]

Geez, some wierd betting going on here. Whatever happened to just win, lose or draw with bets placed before the kickoff? I guess I'm old fashioned.

[Floydyboy]

YOUR UP EARLY SPORTZ

I had $1K on a Chelsea/Liverpool/Juventus Multi :wink:

I'll be putting a small wager on a Stuttgart/Barcelona double today

[sportznut]

Floydyboy, by the looks of all those posts, you haven't even gone to bed.

With the EPL this week, I just had a simple double on Chelsea & Liverpool and smaller bets on Aston Villa and Everton. I think I'll stay away from the big game tonight. Might have a small double on Middlesbrough & Newcastle though.


<font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: sportznut on 2004-10-24 06:56 ]</font>

[Northerly]

By the look of it Sportz you had a good night.
I went to bed after the Spurs game not as keen as Floydy.
I did have a multi on Chel/Liv/Juve at $3.23, to finish just in front for the night.

And Floydy, I can actually bet online with BF and don't have to ring up. Can't explain it but I have 3 accounts with them and one of them has seemed to slip thru the net. Occasionally it stops me but all I do is log off and back on again and Bob's your uncle I can bet "In-Play" again.

Has been extremely handy since my discovery, last night was a perfect example. And so close to getting that bewt on Chelsea. Oh well.

[Floydyboy]

Strange that... well good on ya ........I rang up and had a bet in play last night Its a good feeling laying off knowing you cant lose ......I layed the australians(cricket) at1.30 to win the series then during the second test i backed em to win at about 1.70 so now if they win I win 3 or if they lose or draw I win 50 ....win win i like

[Northerly]

that's the best way to trade.

I lay EVERY Test Match for the Draw, as long as the weather forecast doesn't have rain. I've only done this on 5 tests and only 1 has ended in a draw (2nd Test Ind v Aus) and I had covered myself on that one anyway after the 4th day. All of them have started favourite (eg, 3rd Test Ind v Aus $2.16) and it only takes 1 good day for either team for the Draw to drift allowing you to back it for a guareteed profit.

[knowledge]

well on betfair $298,000 out of $312,000 matched on Freiburg v Stuttgart has been put on Stuttgart. Everyone is tipping them to win. I'm confident.

Odds are good too, I suggest you all to back them.

[faroutfantasies]

not a very good weekend of sports beting

[knowledge]

stuttgart and middlesbrough both cost me big time.

[Floydyboy]

Well if i learned anything on the weekend It was to leave the exotics alone... HT/FT,correct score.under/over etc ...and ,stay out of europe restrict myself to a few bets or just 2to3leg multis
I just checked out my account for the last three months and if I'd left the exotics and europe alone Id be miles in front
