What are your bets for this weekend?

some multiples on for tomorrow on league 1


MK Dons
Charlton
Huddersfield
Bournemouth
Colchester
Brentford
Scunthorpe
Sheff Wed
Wycome - Walsall draw
Bury-Exeter draw
Notts Cty- Hartlepool draw
 
Mixed bag tonight:

Germany+England+Spain to win - LOST £25 free bet, cheers Wayne guess you had to sort the old man out....
France to draw with Albania - LOST £20
Serbia to Draw with Italy - Won £100
Wales to beat Switzerland - Won £112.50
Holland vs Moldova >4.5 - Lost £20 - don't listen to OcUK tips! :)
NI to draw with Estonia - Lost £57
Armenia to draw with Macedonia - Lost £56

Modest profit overall, biggest regret probably not putting a bigger stake on Wales, they seemed well overpriced (4.75) considering they were at home and had most of their big guns available.
 
Well Hangtime i did say Portugal game over 4 was good too :p i am very surprised Holland only won 1-0....heard they had 6 players injured but still.:confused:

I think Phillies will win the Baseball game by a few runs tonight -1.5 looks good on paper as the best pitcher in MLB in my view(Roy Halladay who threw a no hitter vs St Louis who they have tonight in 2010) is playing.Only thing is though St Louis have been great lately so i am not confident enough to do it lol and especially after football has been crap to bet on the last few weeks.

Edit: Bah sod it, bet £20 on it....baseball season coming to an end and i've won a lot from it anyway.

Halladay had a good game but the Phillies offence has been AWOL since they wrapped up the NL East and they paid the price for it tonight.

I was gonna stick £20 on the Phils but hesitated because despite a disappointing season I rate Chris Carpenter highly, glad I didn't now. Saving my bets for UFC 136 tomorrow night anyway.

Gutted that the Dbacks lost, but this season has been amazing for us so I can't complain.

Yeah the batting was atrocious i really do not understand it. :(

Carpenter is decent yeah and Diamondbacks were unlucky they did really well.Ian Kennedy is amazing and Ryan Roberts seems to of had a good season.I think Texas will win it now due to their batting.
 
Could any matched betters help me please?:

Right, Bet770 have paid me my £70 free bet but I can only claim the winnings if I bet 3 times the amount with odds over 1.5. Could I use a matched betting calculator and try to engineer a result that would likely mean the lay bet would win with some profit? And if it doesn't just continue do a matched bet until I reach the threshold or my lay bet wins?

Normally I use FTO but it claims it's complete so I have to do it manually/separately.
 
Bet 1 returns £106
Bet 2 returns £107

I narrowed my over 1.5 goals acca down to 13 this week aswell, waiting on Liechtenstein vs Scotland. £10 returns £247.

Big fingers crossed :)

In a situation where you need to 'turn over' a free bet before you can claim winnings I'd be tempted to just bet on something with long odds and lay it elsewhere. Chances are your free bet will lose which means you don't have to worry about turning it over any more. Obviously with a £70 free bet you may need deep pockets to lay it but I'd guess if you are doing matched betting this shouldn't be a problem.

As a general point I think it is better to use free bets on long odds anyway since you usually don't get the stake back, so you want the stake to be as small a proportion of the return as possible.

Thanks for the reply, when you say long odds, do you mean high odds :o?

Yes I do need deep pockets (checked earlier) but a couple more offers and I should have enough.
 
Well needed 1 more goal in the Scotland game for £247 in my +1.5 goals acca. Getting closer.

My Rugby treble came in though, waiting on Ireland in the football now on tuesday to complete my 2nd acca. Dunno how I ended up picking a game different from the weekend fixtures, hate waiting around :o
