Interesting to hear Ruby had a bit of trouble choosing who to ride and Denman is already coming in in price. 7-2 from 4-1.

What you thinking?

Tell you mate I was thinking Kauto but I think I been getting a bit carried away with the hype Denman deffo the value for me, and his performance in the Hennessey was unreal, I no Kauto looked very impressive in the King George, but I think Denman is the value, in reality I think they should be something like:

Kauto Star 6/4
Denman 5/2.

4/1 if still available is a great price.

Anyone liking Darchinyan for a quick KO?

11/4 for a Darchinyan win in either 1-3 or 4-6.

Never seen the other guy fight but his record is shit. Anyone seen much of him?

We'll get them one day!

I knew something was up when they took over half an hour to settle, they're usually very quick. Probably consulting their lawyers and terms and conditions for a way to get out of that one.

I know its in their rules but I'd love to know how placing a bet at a specific odds and then them changing the odds afterwards holds up in court. The idea is once they've accepted a bet its a contract between you and them, yet it seems to be only them that can back out and change things. Pisses me off...but oh well, taking money from them is some consolation.

I'm going to reserve judgement until I've had a proper look.

I haven't seen any games or highlights for a couple of weeks but Deportivo seem good value at home to Tenerife (who have a pretty poor away record).

Throw Barca in for a double at just over even money.

Same here mate, im franctically clicking "unsettled bets" or "my balance" then when it goes past about 15-20mins for an inplay game its like "argh, something is up here" so I ended up going to bed, logging on in the morning and see "1 new message" and you know exactly what it is!

Their stream or whatever they were watching on was behind the whole game so it should be their mistake and they pay for it but they always wriggle out of it. If your regular guy can be ahead of them then its their own ineptitude that means they're behind, they shouldnt be able to get out of that.

I do love their site though, I was betfair mad until someone told me to check out 365 and ive barely used betfair since. The amount you can do is insane, theres so much variety its immense.

Same here, I'm an avid 365 user. Odds are kinda middle of the road, sometimes good sometimes average, but for pure ease of use and variety it can't be beat.

The great irony is the disclaimer at the bottom of in-play markets, they tell you that if the info is wrong then they take no responsibility for your loss, yet if they're wrong and you take advantage...wow suddenly its their responsibility !

Yea i was thinking about that too, ill check it out

Haha indeed, they might aswell write "If we fuck up you wont benefit" "but if you fuck up then we'll gladly take your money"

Tip of the day - Munster (-2) to win at the Dragons. I was looking to bet the Dragons but after seeing the sides it has to be Munster.

I've got -

Munster (-2) 10/11
Arsenal to beat Burnley 1/8
West Ham to beat Bolton 8/11
Windies to beat Zimbabwe 2/7

Four timer pays just under 4/1.

[lefthook82]

bet365 will be the site that turns me into those drunken slobs outside the shops

I'll soon be betting on some Urugayan Football 6th division female cup game lol

Bet365 ko1 Betfred, Ladbrokes, Totesport(awful). Boylesports will give it an arguement but will get knocked out in about 3 rounds

[Grant1]

West Ham

[Cpt_Vodka]

Anyone watching the Arsenal game? How are they doing?

Im watching my Hamburg pick, looking pretty healthy atm with 1-0. Hertha showing time and time again poor defense. We'll see if van Nistelrooy will do something as a sub in the second half, im expecting him to come on.

[GazOC]

I've had a little interest bet on Urango at 7/2. Hopefully it'll pay for tonights night out in town,
