Couldn't be happier!...I was wishing the penalty in as much as anyone;). 2nd week in a row I have bet on all of the teams around us, and last werk, not a single one of them won(except Bolton)...it's all part of the plan.

Off to put a tenner on an acca of Bolton, Forest, Palace, Boro and Watford;)
 
Changed my betting habits the past couple of weeks. Gone into a local bookies (non chain) and put on a 5quid accumulator with a free final score bet to the same value.

Had Liverpool, Partick, Morton, Alloa, Queen of the South on to win (damn you Liverpool and Morton!)

and the free £5 scoreline East Fife 1 - Stenhousemuir 2 :D

Pick up my winnings tomorrow.

EDIT

£42.50 for the correct scoreline

£5 double on man city and man u

just clarifying for my own sanity (always gets confusing with backing/laying) - you lost on 7 bets and gained on 1 bet which netted your profit?

Correct. All the lays are automatic via Betfair's cashout. Did the same today though slimmer winnings (£25 profit):

Basically at half time (when it was 0-1) I bet on 1-1, 1-2, 2-1, 2-2 and 0-2. I was on to take £72 with the 1-2 score but I cashed out for £68 via the lays (for £25 profit).

Great result there mate.

I went for a straight Barca win. At 1.7 pretty much from the off it felt like stealing!

I saw they were 4/5 about 8 minutes in and thought :eek: that's a massive price, then realised all the kids were playing and left alone.
 
Our old friend the Estonian Cup returns tomorrow.

Parnu vs Flora - Flora are 1/33, could win by 5 or more if they're bothered.
Kalju vs Ganvix - Ganvix are a division 4 team, Kalju won the premier league last season. Ganvix lost 13-1 to a team ONE division above them in the cup last year, what are this lot gonna do to them?!?

Wait to see what odds are offered on over/under goals and handicaps etc, they start at 4pm and 6pm tomorrow.

might have to have a pop at a couple of these :p
 
I was actually wrong slightly in my last post, they didn't lose 13-1 in the cup last year..

It was a league game this season :eek::eek:

They're going to be bent over royally.
 
Thanks for the headsup dazza.

Does anyone here dutch often? Did another one tonight on the Arsenal/Everton game via the Bet Angel software:

Again, not huge gains but limiting the risk. Was my first time using the software and it's actually very good but unsure if it's worth the price.

Thing is there is you're hoping for few goals in the last half hour or so and if there are, to go with the team expected to win. Not for me, as if a shock was on the cards you could get burnt quickly. Look at the arsenal game at the weekend, 3 goals for arsenal all after 85 mins.

Keep an eye on bet365 around 3pm fo the markets on the Estonian games. I reckon the goal line will be 6.5, if it is, get on it!

This is true. But then the same can be said of most bets! At the moment I'm just sticking to live games that I can follow through to their end until I get a bigger bank or more confidence. I'm trying to give myself a 2 goal buffer so if Arsenal did score 2 in the last 5 minutes then I'd look to limit my loss by backing 3-0 or laying an Over/Under market (or simply cashin out for a loss). Last night was the first time I didn't cash out before the end as well.

It was also the first time I'd used software which made it much easier.
 
Bet Angel just helps automate betting including dutching etc as well as providing some pretty complex graphs and the like.

Estonian Cup is unrelated and just a heads up of games that are highly likely to be very one sided with better odds than an equivalent English game.
