It's at this point I smugly point out I got my city bet on with Sky @ Manchester City @ 1.67, (equivalent to 1.705 here) which seemed big at the time.

All they have to do now is win, otherwise whatever price you got on at was irrelevant ( although please don't say that to the " value" bettors - then all hell will break loose on here.)

Fafh - I would "guess" that it is because BM have not only already qualified but have already qualified as Group Winners. As such it would be easy to speculate what kind of team they would put out and how motivated that team would be.

But is that really " new " news or insight.
Surely the mkts. would have input such basic stuff hours ago ( or even days in this case in point ).

Fafh - your question is inviting me to after-time, so I open myself up to abuse.

But in the Man City game I was mostly playing in the HT/FT market at average 2.80 - with a fairly strong opinion that that price could only go one way - inwards! - it is now 2.40 which is ridiculously short (imo)

But the same question would arise.
Why the extreme move and how could it ever have been reasonably forecasted, based on the information at hand, either in the last few hours or the last few days.
No matter really if you don't want to respond.
It happened, you apparently for whatever reason saw it coming to a certain extent ( if not to the degree it did) and you were on the right side of it ( and more importantly it didn't ruin a good dinner ).
Well done.
As a trader you now don't care what happens. Just relax and watch the game without any stress at all.
Ah life is just beautiful sometimes.

Btw you can certainly tell who are the position players on here.
They're the only ones with the time to post during the CL games.
And probably the only ones really enjoying the TCV pictures ( unless all the traders have successfully greened up, which goes without saying).

TCV ?
A new fast pic service available only to a select few ?
Nah, just a typo. Relax all.

Today pretty much sums up the Dilemma  - to trade or to bet.

I traded 3 games at what were very wrong/favourable prices (imo) - all HT/FT

Man U/Man U @ 2.80/2.82 - a bit surprised it only went off at around 2.76 but it was never going to lengthen from 2.80.
Real Madrid/Real Madrid @ 4.40/4.50 - that price was way too big and it went off at 3.80/3.90
Man City/Man City @ 2.80 - was only ever going to shorten and went off at 2.38

Having traded - I have made a slice of bread and will suffer no variance or stress. If I could stand the variance (I know I would win long-term at the prices secured) I would have made half a loaf tonight. Obviously I am after-timing (again) but it sums up nicely the dilemma I face when there is no flat turf racing!

Tedium and no stress - but I still feel dirty.

Tough titty MM.
The point is can you achieve this sort of success time after time ?
If you can forget about felling dirty and start getting and felling rich.

Obviously on an after time basis will have to do now.
I wasn't looking at them I'm afraid to say.
Too fcking busy posting on here.

I can identify a wrong price when I see one, that is no problem - finding enough of them and getting sufficiently matched is another matter. Like I said - tedious.

Oh well, it will soon be March!

Watch out MM.
Some on here might start to call you arrogant and elitist.
For many, no way of making even a few bucks on here would ever be too tedious to be bothered with.
