Sorry Nocko was refering to the Scottish bets re Billy's , the guys seem to have landed a few nice bets. What price were you on HOB today?

finally paid out!

many thanks to superbigal and kiddo112 I'd have never done the bet if I hadn't seen this

£2 returned £368

I had a few quid on Cutler to win by 4 or more at 18/5, and Wick to win by 4 or more at 7/1
but wish I'd had the balls to do multiples like some of you lads.

Some serious bookie pillaging done by the looks of it

WD again, SBA - some of the best info ever posted on here. 

I've got a raging hangover sba and I'm blaming it all on you

Happy days mate happy days.

Hoping superbigal is six figures richer today

I had no play on this but i just want to congratulate you on such a super thread. This is what the forum is about. Fantastic stuff and great to see ye all made a few bob.

Edinburgh punter wins £101k on William Hill Scottish Cup
A William Hill online punter from Edinburgh has landed the bet of a lifetime. The canny Scottish punter placed a four-fold accumulator bet on last weekend's William Hill Scottish Cup and landed a whopping £101,200 for his troubles.
The punter's £100 accumulator resulted in the biggest ever individual payout in William Hill Scottish Cup history after all four teams won their first round ties by four goals or more.
Cove Rangers got the accumulator rolling by beating Glasgow University 4-0, Huntly then beat Newton Stewart 6-1, Culter beat Burnisland Shipyard 4-0 and Wick Academy beat Coldstream 9-1 to round off his mammoth payout.
‘This punter obviously had a crystal ball when making his selections,' said William Hill spokesman Tony Kenny, ‘To bet on four teams to win by four goals was a phenomenal leap of faith and we'd like to wish this shrewd Scotsman all the best with his new found fortune.'
£100 Accumulator
Cove Rangers to beat Glasgow University by 4 or more goals @ 4/1
Huntly to beat Newton Stewart by 4 or more goals @ 9/2
Culter to beat Burntisland Shipyard by 4 or more goals @ 18/5
Wick Academy to beat Coldstream by 4 or more goals @ 7/1
Total Return £101,200

Al, read your threads before and was glad to see today's.
I've had my biggest win by a distance and I owe you to say the least!
Just over £100k has been settled by the good folks at Willie Hill's :)
If you're ever in Edinburgh, I will seek to repay some of that in the finest beer the city has to offer!




theres a clue for you guys

don4's the lucky man

Hi Guys.
Glad the Don took them to the cleaners and got the publicity.
I love the fact that Billys still think this was a crystal ball bet.
Its quite good that Culter and Cove just obliged and no more.
Reality is they both could easily have won by far more goals.
While odds compilers use correct score charts that apply to the English Premiership for Scottish cup 1st round ties then we always stand a chance of landing big.
I was unfortunate not to land the 500-1 Wick 9-0 Scoreline.
May come on and tip the Scottish Junior cup ties next saturday.

FRONT PAGE OF THE DAILY RECORD ABOUT £100K WIN - (the best selling scottish newspaper)

Doesn't mention betfair tips - although the guy got them from here - great work superbigal and kiddo112 - wish I had followed your tip

Apologies about the lack of Superbigal or Betfair mention - the Record reporter was firing questions at a fair rate to get it done in time for the run and I wasn't exactly prepared. There was some 'poetic licence' in what was published - funnily enough it was different to the version I asked to be emailed before it was printed.
Once again, a HUGE thanks to Superbigal as his knowledge of the junior teams has once again been proven. Don't know how to work it, but looking to give you a wee thank you.

well done  superbigal read your  thread  lunch time  sat , for  years  S.CUP  always  looked a good  hunting  ground  for  acc  etc    keep  my  wagers  kinda  straight  forward , saw  where you  were  at  and  explained it  so  well for  forumites  to  catch on  . cant  believe  bookies  warning  systems  never kicked  in better   ?  relatively  easy  most  weeks  for  books  on  pools . to go  whole  hog   and  all up  a near  miracle , no  account  for  me  on hilly  billys  so  missed  out  .  suspect  a  reduction on  scores  at  these  levels  of  games  imminent  ?  best  thread  ever  again  well done  superbigal .   off to  track down a  dailly  record  for  scrap  book  .

Aftertimer.

You lot sound like a lot of bitter mugs who didnt get on at massive prices, like us shroodies.

Check the fred below from a punting forum, where the advice to get on this bet originially came from.

http://community.betfair.com/go/forum/popup?output_method=iframe&base_url=http://community.betfair.com/service&type=forum&category=94166&xref=165814

As the opening poster I did not make nearly as much as some who followed advice.
My heavy bet was on my perceived "Sure thing" with odds of only 4-1. This obliged so I am happy.
I had some small bets on the "Great Value" prices and certainly made a few quid.
Im not a pro Gambler and of course will continue to spar with the opposition.
Its entertainment for me.

NB Did anyone actually follow my advice on St Andrews and Hill o Beath ?

Luckily that £101k will probably be covered by your big-win exemption, Don, otherwise Hills would be having £60k of that back off you tomorrow.  Congrats to all who were on, and especially well done to the OP.

well done guys gutted didnt see this.not suprising with all the free money freds from the morons and my team better than your team freds.

Round 2 Draw just In
There wont unfortunately be any obvious thrashings in a very evenly draw.
EG Gala v Golspie is without doubt the worst 2 teams in the comp drawing each other.

Clachnacuddin v Inverurie Loco Works
Vale of Leithen v Cove Rangers
Gala Fairydean v Golspie Sutherland
Fort William or Bo'ness United v Whitehill Welfare
Fraserburgh v Elgin City
Wigtown and Bladnoch v Stranraer
Peterhead v Nairn County
Wick Academy v Keith
Culter v Spartans
Alloa Athletic v Annan Athletic
Deveronvale v Berwick Rangers
Auchinleck Talbot v Threave Rovers
East Stirlingshire v Buckie Thistle
Huntly v Queens Park
Montrose v Clyde
Edinburgh City v Forres Mechanics or Irvine Meadow

stranraer will beat wigtown by five or six

I will post tips for Junior Cup when Mcbookie and Paddys release their odds.
Couple of stand outs on Hillys just now but you never know they may be bigger if I keep my paint dry.
