Well that wasn't the best start.

Decided to have one more shot - have put money down on set betting on the Wickmayer match but since it doesn't start till after Danilidou v Watson I'm trying to get out of it - want to hit the ground running! Hopefully some kind soul will match me up soon.

By:
Unless something miraculous happens I'm out here. Will have another go later in the week.

Out of the Wickmayer market now but can't see anything worth punting on for now, will see how Watson's game develops.

The chasing demon has overwhelmed me a bit here, either that or its the wine beginning to take control.
1. Heather Watson to beat Daniilidou £25 at 1.24 Will probably green this out if she breaks again. |

 Keeping the faith for now. |

strangely the day olympics football starts :D could be epic |
|
By:
Yep, Watson's not quite on the trusted list yet so quite happy to get out at 1.02
Can never tell what kind of display Wickmayer will put on - but the girl she's playing shouldn't give her too many problems I'd imagine. Although I'm always wary about backing people early in tournies after they had a decent run the previous week. |

2. Lay Yung Jan Chan 2-0 v Wickmayer - liability £30.10 Gone for my original bet, although the odds have moved a tick higher than from before the Watson game. Thanks to plucky Heather I'll get a bit more winnings if it comes in now though. |

i think im gonna back wickmayer 2-0
|

By:
Looking at Chan's stats doesn't suggest there's a class player in there - good chance of it happening. She's only beaten K Bondarenko in the French and a few mugs I've never heard of in various qualifying tournies this year, so it looks a decent bet.

Rubbish thing about tennis set betting is having to wait till the end of the match even though it's already a winner pretty early on. Never mind, patience etc.

Had hoped Puuma would dish out a mauling there
 so I could have bailed and jumped on AEL, but a win's a win.1. Heather Watson to beat Daniilidou £25 at 1.22 2. Vitoria to beat ASA £30.13 at 1.08 3. Lay Guaratingueta at 12.5 v America MG - liability £32.32 4. Home Utd v Geylang Utd Over 1.5 £35.09 at 1.04 5. Lay Henri Laaksonen 2-0 at 7.8 v Giraldo - liability £36.38 6. Puuma to beat Warrior Valga £41.50 at 1.12 7. Manchester United to beat Amazulu £46.24 at 1.22 Fraught with danger this one, with it apparently being Nelson Mandela Day today, so will probably escape when (if?) Man U take the lead. I do feel its worth the risk though, plus the other evening games seem harder to call. Of course, if I lose I'll have the consolation of 100s of witty "Let's all laugh at Manure" threads to sift through later tonight |

man utd will win though, its not even in doubt

Let's hope so!

By:
0-1 already, good stuff.
Molde-Ventspils isn't going in play which was the only other attractive pre-match option to me and since I got burned on a non-inplay game yesterday will swerve that, let the United bet run a wee bit longer and see how the night's games develop. |

good luck milla445

Cheers Vegas - hoping to avoid the kind of poorly thought out bets that killed the run last time.
Bet 7 takes me to beyond the £50 mark (£55.89) so taking out £5.89 to run with £50 and banking 10% of any winnings from now as on the previous run - don't want to end up with nothing. Can't see anything worth jumping on for now, back when something decent comes along. |

Again, a bit riskier than some of my previous bets but I can't see the away side winning here, so happy to take the gamble. As always in Peru 0-0 looks most likely tbh. |

Enjoyable, if slightly nervy, end to the game in Peru - 1-1 FT.
Tempted to leave a lay of Seattle against Chelsea up for through the night, but with no idea of team news as of now I think I'll pass on it, since I'm up early for work tomorrow. However, have gone for: 1. Heather Watson to beat Daniilidou £25 at 1.22 2. Vitoria to beat ASA £30.13 at 1.08 3. Lay Guaratingueta at 12.5 v America MG - liability £32.32 4. Home Utd v Geylang Utd Over 1.5 £35.09 at 1.04 5. Lay Henri Laaksonen 2-0 at 7.8 v Giraldo - liability £36.38 6. Puuma to beat Warrior Valga £41.50 at 1.12 7. Manchester United to beat Amazulu £46.24 at 1.22 8. Lay Ayr Utd at 16 v Bolton - liability £49.95 9. Lay Inti Gas at 7.2 v Alianza Lima - liability £52.82 10. Seattle Sounders v Chelsea Lay 0-0 at 17 - liability £60.16 I figure in the worst case scenario even a shadow Chelsea team should be able to score against an MLS side - and Seattle are not too bad themselves (by MLS stsndards, obviously) so could manage to nick one themselves. Slightly better odds laying the 0-0 than going for over 0.5 in this one. Mostly matched and I'm sure the outstanding £7 liability will follow shortly. |

Having seen the FT Chelsea score, chuffed the 0-0 lay came in - although I wish (a) I'd been brave enough to follow my first instincts and lay Seattle and (b) since the first goal went in on 3 mins, that I'd stayed up for another 20 mins and got on something else. Never mind, a winner is a winner.
Also pretty pleased that Seattle managed to score, which means I can claim there was a BTTS tip in the ramblings I posted last night Going out with Mrs Milla this evening so if I do jump on something using the mobile after 1800 it may not be posted until later, as getting on the forum from my phone is a pain in the rear. Pondering the 1600 kick-offs, as of now undecided whether to play super safe or take a calculated risk. I do like a ramble sometimes. |

Bets 1-10: £25 -> £63.34
Withdrawn: £7.37 11. Anzhi Makhachkala to beat Honved £63.34 at 1.15 Did think about laying Honved to be completely safe but with odds at 34 pre-kick off, that doesn't really appeal at this point, it's the kind of thing I'll be doing when the balance is a lot higher than £63. The other one I was considering was laying Metalurgs Liepaja but after the Dudelange fiasco I've been scared off laying home teams pre-match for a wee bit. |

By:
If I win my next bet will be a lay of Hafnarfordjur against AIK. Unless I've jinxed things with that post

might give this a blast using 2 £10 banks
|
|
By:
Sensible approach - I daresay I'll be operating with more than 1 bank if by some miracle I manage to get to a high amount - doubt I'd have the bottle to stick a few hundred on a single bet. All in seems to be working for me just now though.
Anzhi take the lead just before I have to leave, very considerate of them  |
