The 2014-15 Betting Thread *Spoilers*

Not too much longer for the FPL to start, or you could always do ridiculously early bets like bayern to win the bundesliga (1/6 bargain but need to wait almost a year to cash it in :p)

I cba with that sort of thing anymore unless I find something exceptional. Also backing a huge favourite on a season-long bet means effectively you tie up a fair chunk of bankroll (given that you need to back it heavily to make any sort of money at 1/6), which may limit the funds you have to spend on other short-term bets.

I can see the logic in small wager punts on long term high odds / accas etc but for me there isn't much excitement in say locking away £500 for 9 months and ending up with under a ton profit at the end of it.

Like any addiction with gambling after a while you need to get instant/rapid highs which is probably why in-play has been so successful (obviously depends on individual as to how they view gambling in terms of career/hobby/bit of fun etc).

I will be doing my season accumulators today. A team to win each division. Probably one or two of a team to get promoted from each division, which 3 teams to be relegated from the Premiership etc.

I will also do the bet that has helped me out for the last 2 seasons: Brighton to finish higher than Leeds, which has been over evens each time.
 
There are some enticing pre-season games on tonight - Roma v Man Utd and Inter Milan v Real Madrid. I'll wait to see the teams, but I'm considering a double on Utd win and Madrid -1.

Gutted. Awful tips. I would have gone Telescope place anyday of the week. Brilliant horse, unlucky not to win against second favourite Taghrooda.

Banged a load of low price double chances in @ 5/1
Draw or Leeds @ 1.22
Draw or Wolverhampton @ 1.28
Draw or Ipswich @ 1.28
Draw or Burnley @ 1.12
Draw or Cheltenham @ 1.20
Hearts or Annan Athletic @ 1.11
Queen of South or Draw @ 1.36
Draw or Alloa @ 1.22
8 Folds, 1 bet * £20.00

Anyone used 10bet? Placed a -1AH today on a match that ended 0-1 meaning a 0-0 draw yet in my betting history it says the best was lost. I thought the result would have been staked returned.
 
So did I. Does it not have a Customer service chat window?

And in the case of -1 Asian Handicap betting, your bet wins if your team wins by a goal difference of two or more. So a 1-0 win would be a draw after applying the handicap, and your stake would be refunded.

That's on 10bet itself. So you should be, unless of course your team lost 1-0 not won.

You sure it was an Asian Handicap and not just a Handicap?

That'll be it I think. Placed the bet on what they called 3W handicap.

I'll be getting all my money out of them soon tbh. They don't seem like the greatest of bookies. Have one match that ended a couple of hours ago that they still haven't paid me for and is still classed as an Open Bet.

FK Jurmala might have bought the win today. They get slaughtered in most games yet £3k got placed on them and then they go 1-0 up.
