attempt 3:
enough of those goal bets, no short odds below 1.4 on match wins either, starting bank will be 10.00 again, lets see how many out of the 2.5% bets i can get right before i lose again... aiming for my 50k ;) haha

bet 1) laying deportivo to be winning at half time for 2.32


starting bank: 10.00
current bank: 10.00


shouldnt be leading at half time, atletico madrid will start this game strong in order to rest players in 2nd half before europa league.. well thats my thinking anyway.. strong line up and depor not really on form.. away from home cant see them scoring more than 1 goal which i expect in 2nd half so lets see how we go

end of weekend... had 2 new banks so far.. but thats fine as i made enough on my horses to be at this stage anyway...
Horse Racing: £23.50 | Soccer: -£6.70 | Tote: | Total P&L: £16.80

not including the horse racing into this but that allowed me to reload my bank and have another go.. this time i going to reduce the number of bets i think.. even though i think i was unlucky with a couple of the bets that cost me...

lets hope for a profitable week lads, good luck to you all,

bet 1) 1 + goal in the vila nova vs democrata @ 1.07

starting bank: 10.00
current bank: 16.45
bet number : 22/365

playoff game, villa nova normally good for goals when at home and tough to beat however recent form they havent been that good goalscoring form.. expect them to change this tonight though!
democrata will want an away goal badly to give them an advantage going into the second leg... lets see how this goes :)

leeds pushing for promotion, yeovil aren't going to roll over, expect a good match here and over 2.5 goals i think, so maybe get another bet in this game also

Hope things have picked up after that, Steve. I left the footy alone this aft, challenge-wise. Only one that caught my eye was laying Barnet @ 2.9 home to Chesterfield......glad to have dodged that one!

should be goal in this, benfica should also get the 3pts here but rather go with a goal.. still making me more than 2.5% if it comes in.. aimar, cardozo, di maria and co are going to do the business here ;)

apparently both teams want betis to win this, villareal get money from a clause in players transfer if they are and they also have nothing to play for...

not per day mate per bet ;)

why stop on a day where theres lots of potential bets instead of just doing 1? and then maybe forcing myself to do a match that i particularly dont want to do??
