Managed to get out at 1.02 Stevie, thank god. Phew

f**k me 1-1 who would of expected that :|

unlucky mate :( f**king portugese league screws yet another one of us

unlucky pal i backed draw on 80 mins and i was very lucky otherwise id be 100 down
cudnt see much action but thats footballl

rob_d the mug himself.. alrite mate?

haha lucky mug to u aye last bet of day mate up 120 overall :D

impressive.. i have a new challenge for myself.. realised the 50k wasnt going to happen :p haha

I'm a bit gutted as i only laid out at 1.02 for £80, wish I had done more. I won't be doing a nice and apparently easy bet like that again tho. massive phew ;)

lol mate, had a dodgy multi now that.. ill give u 1 suggestion, AVOID THE ARGENTINA FOOTBALL LATER lol

You gunna restart with another 50?

Cheers lol,

Yip, been very lucky tonight, I had also backed Swindon next goal, Laid Exeter for some more and backed over 1.5 and the draw. Got a nice wee pay out. It's been a very lucky night but I will hopefully learn from it.

I think i'm just to keen to get this up and running. I am rushing things, there was no need for me to get involved in that game there. Lucky to escape with a small profit.

I will try and stay focused, disciplined and most of all, be patient. ;)

he hasnt lost... why restaart? lol

Luton, Heracles, Chelsea to win £46.10 @ odds of 1.69.

That's me signing off lads, good luck in the Argie games tonight lol.

Feel free to join in on this if u like, the more the merrier.

take it easy mate, hope u stay being lucky haha

bet two didn't win.

yes it did cause he traded out..

what and how did he trade out, not familiar with it?

he layed it at a lower price.. you very new to betfair then mate?

for some reason it hasnt posted what i wrote so ill write it again...

laying is betting on an outcome to not happen, for example you can bet on aston villa to NOT win tomorrow or you can back them to win.

say you backed chelsea @ 1.15 for 100 quid which leaves you with 15 quid profit,
chelsea then take the lead and in play the odds on chelsea go to 1.05, you can then lay chelsea (bet on them to NOT win) @ 1.05 for 100 quid which risks 5 pound of your profit but saves your 100 so it leaves you with:
10.00 on chelsea should they win and 0 on draw and 0 on bolton.

there is other ways to do this to have profit on all outcomes but thats it explained briefly, im off to sleep now, im sure some other lads on here will give you some advice though! good luck

the bet was
BET 2

Setabul v Academica under 1.5 (in play) £75.65 @ 1.1

trading out is **ing...

Craigyboy77. 12 Apr 00:26


There are no rules to going all in every time this time. I'll bet according to how confident I am.



so you saying if someone doesnt think there bet is going to go well they aint allowed to trade out? LOL wise up

Yh i get you now, but wouldnt he of still lost as it was a draw? or did he bet on the draw at 0-1? :S

JonnyDixon 13 Apr 01:38


Yh i get you now, but wouldnt he of still lost as it was a draw? or did he bet on the draw at 0-1? :S


he greened out, therefore didnt lose anything..

backed under 1.5 goals at around 1.1 then traded out @ 1.02 so didnt lose

Sorry about the aftertiming lads but I placed this bet on the way home from work so couldn't post it.

Good luck Craigy - I looked at the certs myself and swerved Luton as Histons away form isnt bad, score a few, and Luton lost 5 and drawn 4 at home so are hardly bombproof - having said that they`ll probably win, just a bit short

I have literally gone all in on this bet as I believe 100% in my mind that it will come in.

Barca will rip Deportivo to bits, Depor are well out of form.

Ajax, well what more can I say, they win every game these days. Willem are very very poor. An Ajax win will take them 1 point behind Twente.

Marseille - I actually fancy them to win aswell but I played safe and laid Sochaux. Marseille are looking to increase thier lead at the top pf the table. Sochaux have nothing to play for.

Fingers crossed ;)

I had a think about this bet and I thought at worse that Chelsea would be drawing at half time. I'll see how the game goes, I might trade out.

Barca awful record at Espanyol, won just 2 of last 9 at Espanyol - even when Espanyol had their worst ever season and Barca won euro cup, Espanyol turned them over. This season Espanyol are very solid at home, losing just 3 of 17, scoring 18 and conceding just 14 (best home defence bar the top 4), the only team to win here comfortably was Real 3-0 in the season opener, and thats proved to be a great result for them looking back, theyve recently easily beat Depor and Seville, and Barca got CL semi in a few days. Prob edge it knowing barca but never 1.33 imvho

I rushed into bet 16 and when that lost I was severy hacked off therefore went all in on bet 17 when normally I wouldn't have done that. Hopefully I have learned something from this. I need to learn to control my emothions when I hit a losing bet. I tend to get frustrated and lose my discipline. :(
