Not bad for a £1.

I've got £1.83 in my account with SkyBet, I fancy a challenge to build this up slowly.

Now... Round1.. who shall I lump it all on? lol.

There was a bloke on Betfair who started with £1 or a tenner, and just kept doubling up on short things on the football, single bets only. Im sure he got to about 5-6 grand.

As for the question if you wonna do it REALLY slowly, but have a good chance its got to be on Man U.

Or looking for value i think Coventry @ home to Leicester @ 7/5 is worth a shout.
 
Man Utd v Sunderland – 90 Minutes
Newcastle v Bristol City – 90 Minutes
Sheff Utd v Doncaster – 90 Minutes
Oldham v Yeovil – 90 Minutes
Barcelona v Almeria – 90 Minutes
Arsenal v Blackburn – 90 Minutes
Everton v Stoke – 90 Minutes

Man Utd @ 1/5
Newcastle @ 1/2
Sheff Utd @ 4/7
Oldham @ 4/5
Barcelona @ 1/12
Arsenal @ 1/5
Everton @ 6/10

£5 on that lot at the weekend plus a 12 team £1 accumulator for the fun :D

I never add games on when they're less than 1/5, just not worth the extra tiny amount of money considering freak games do happen.

Meh its Barcelona, any boost however small is welcome, cant see a freak result coming out of it anyways.

And why is everyone even bothering to look at Milan this year? I mean are you all surprised when they do your bets? They have been rotten this year and still have extremely short odds, at no point have I backed them so far and I suspect I wont.

Ok newbie here on betting i was looking at skybet.com. I take it i just select which teams i want to win and add to basket( bet now) the bit below i just add how much i wish to bet in the Accumulator section?


Also at work i've played a couple of times where you select a team from each section think it was 1 team from a multiple list of teams and it had 6 sections so you had to select a team from each section.

Can you play this as i can't find it on skybet?

Any help would be great thanks.

Yes mate you simply pick your teams and then put your stake in the accumulator box and then place your bet.

As far as i know there isnt anywhere online where you can do a sections list. Iv only ever seen them on the football slips you get out of your local betting shop.

Thanks for your help :).
 
OK well I'm trying the 'see how far I can get' method, starting with £5.

I put £5 on Arsenal to win, that came back with £6 returns (£1 profit).

I might as well use this thread to log it - all bets are with skybet.com

Round 1 £5
Arsenal to Win (won)

Round 2 Pot £6


Thinking of doing internationals, got to look at the fixtures and what's to play for.

to get to 5-6 grand from even a tenner, betting on singles which are short, would take about 5 years

Internationals are a bit hazardous, harder to predict than league games, be careful

Yeah I need to look at what is at stake. I'm going to steer clear of any teams who have already qualified as they might blood some new talent and look at who is playing at home. I think playing at home on the international stage offers much more of an advantage.

If I win on the first set of matches in the afternoon I've got the chance of betting again in the evening. In time order:

Yep, Internationals are far too unpredictable when it's nearing the end of qualification.
You never know who is actually taking the game seriously or not ;) Also too much pressure on some teams and they collapse under it

I couldnt remember who originally told me the story, so i just checked with the old man, he has got a slight variation, but he has heard it as well. Obviously it could be complete bull, and now im actually sitting here thinking about it, it probably is.

I aint sure about it taking 5 years though mate. You could easily do 3 bets a week with the amount of football being played ( english, european, s. american etc if you was suitabaly clued up on the different leagues ) 10 bets @ 1/4 gets you £93.13, 20 bets gets you £867.36 in 7 weeks.

I agree, i usually go for outsiders with something to play for at this stage. Rarely get a return on internationals though.
