Ask the experts on the tennis forum ....

I'm not here to explain the basics of why the odds would have gone down ... either do your own research, perhaps apply a bit of logic or like I said ask the experts on the tennis forum ....

What is sad is that you can't work out your own bets and in turn put them up on your own challenge ...

Undern, don't forget that you can take a break from this any time you want - I was thinking more of the betting there, but that can apply equally to the posting! If you don't feel bang in form, simply don't bet for a day or two. You've had a strong few weeks, so you're due a few days off. Good luck tomorrow. Cheers LB - I will be having a forced break next week ... it is funny sometimes everything clicks in to place while others times it doesn't ... not sure about today. What ticked me off a bit was the athletics bets this morning not working out and having a poster Liamos question me about a bet as if it was his money .... I need to know when to back off a bit - and take time out either betting - posting - or both. |

LB - most two faced git on here.

oh and no one else on the forum posts up bets like you do so nothing to chat about on any other forum. not sure any people on here have made as much as you so thats probably why. hence why i love your thread.
|

By:
When are we going to green up ....
What's this 'we' business ... go away Paulme |
|
By:
just messin wit ya
|
|
By:
So despite me asking you Paulme a number of times to stop posting on here ... you are simply going to continue to do so ???
This thread is not for a chit-chat - I don't mind the occasional post from people but not long conversations. Please go and join facebook to chat to people or chat away to the guys on the other forum area - football, racing and tennis .... |
|
By:
hmm ok but they dont talk about bets. no one on here. hence why i believe you're making more than anyone else on here.
|
|
By:
Probably lots of people making lots of money on BF but they are not going to openly tell you how they do it .... and their also not stupid enough to start a challenge thread ....
Whether people are winning or losing or to what level is nor here nor there - it is more about peoples' opinions and chatting to them about their views versus your views .... |
|
By:
ok well bandy bet looking good now. not watching it on sky as catching up on other things.
oh and why is starting a challenge thread "stupid"? |

By:
Blake 5-4 up ... not sure if he was 15-0 up ... knew the other guy would feel some pressure to stay in the match ... and knowing that Blake has a very good forehand would try and rip a few returns back ...
|
|
By:
good win.
why the 2 smiley faces? what funny? |
|
By:
 nice win on Bandy in the tennis as well ... |
|
By:
yep i'm about to lose all my bandy winning on nadal set 2.
|
|
By:
so why the 2 smileys und?
|
|
By:
.... because he was up 3 match points and I felt confident that I was going to 'in some ways' pinch £228 on a match that I only got involved in the last few mins of the match ..... so I was extra happy ...
why what's it to you ... |
|
By:
ok thanks mate
oh and why is starting a challenge thread "stupid"? |
|
By:
.... because it is hard work especially having people like you asking me too many questions and thinking that it is a place to chit chat - as opposed to treating the thread the way I would like it to be ...
|
|
By:
ok well good luck with the rest of your betting tonight
|
|
By:
... and good luck to you with the updating of your own challenge thread ...
|

By:
great thread undern, keep it up. also i wouldn't be to hard on paulme as i think he adds a nice touch of humour to your thread with his obvious hero worship of you.

By:
thanks for the post ... now I don't mean to be critical of what you just said because I see where you are coming from ...BUT
That's fine if it was fantasy betting or £5 bets but it is far from it ... Paulme please direct all your questions to Briggsy08 who will be only too happy to answer your questions .... [;)] How you would like to lose a largish bet simply because you are answering someones question about why the odds of a tennis player dropped suddenly or why did I post up two smiley faces .... rather than monitoring your bets .... Yep it is a laugh when things go right but rarely is gambling a smooth lake to swim through ... have a good night. |

thanks freddie ... would have been even better if I didn't get myself in a position that I had to do such big bets on the tennis in the first place (the Davy one was £2K and the Ferrer was £1K while the Blake one was £1K but a sneaky grab at low odds at the end of the match) ....
Now where did I say about staking no more than 1 to 3% of the current bank .... need to get back to this really if I have any chance .... |
