I like that bet/match-up, by the way. If there's another goal in the Sampdoria match and it comes in time, I might just get involved in that one myself. (It's not looking great for my bet so far, to be honest. Torino are toothless going forward and Sampdoria are happy sitting on the 1 - 0 so far.)
Tony Broke: I just figured it would be more difficult if the aim was to make 50% profit with every bet. All those 1.10's/1.20's that people bet on, there are plenty of those kind of challenges going on already. (Although I just realised that Betfair increased the rate a while ago and I have to bet on odds of 1.54 to make just over 50% profit...) If you achieve this, you're definitely a betting expert.

Thanks, Tony B. Just happy not to fall at the first hurdle. How embarrassing would that be?!
Still keeping an eye on the Heidenheim game, but neither the stats nor the home team's performance convince me enough yet to have a bet on two goals in that game. I remember their cup match a few weeks ago when Heidenheim were all over Union Berlin but they needed a penalty kick to break the game open. After that, the game really opened up and there were two more goals and plenty chances for more. Guess I'll just wait for the first goal to be scored and see what the odds for Over 1.5 goals are then.

Close shave, but Union Berlin finally get on the scoresheet. Nice.
I was hoping for Excelsior and Vitesse to keep their powder dry until half time, but the home team just scored. Probably should've had three already, but the odds in the Eredivisie are ridiculously low so I couldn't get on Over 1.5 goals yet.
Let's see what else we can come up with...

Bit risky, the game being over and all, but Vitesse still seem interested and I can't see Excelsior scoring.

And bust. Typical. Put the bet on and they stop playing virtually immediately after; and to add insult to injury they concede a penalty in their laziness. Had I waited three minutes, I could've got similar odds for Over 3.5 goals. Greed got the better of me, again. (Will I ever learn?)

Not much goalmouth action there, going by the stats. But there's still plenty of time left. The good thing is that Genoa are probably happy with 0 - 0, so if there is a goal it's only going to come from one team... I hope.

betfairbuddy, it's not about betting small stakes ,it's about the challenge, the guy who turned 200 into 10k, that's more impressive than laying 1.01's with huge stakes

Time to revive this thread. Can't let it die without having had at least one succesful attempt, after all.
Bet 01: Ajax -v- PEC Zwolle (HT 0 - 0) | Over 1.5 goals | €10.00 @ 1.70
Good chance this ends 0 - 0, but provided there's a goal before the 75th minute, I can't really see less than two goals, either.

My first bet for goals today and it loses. Typical.
Will have another go when the Euro 2016 qualifiers commence, until then it's back to betting against goals again.
