    Put just over a ton on KR Reykjavik to win.

    Only won £25 in return but they went and won 7-1 :lol:

    Against a pub team, the 2/9 was generous.

    And like a complete mug I went and picked Superstar Lily on the strength of the first tip. Finished last. Cosmic, cos-bloody-mic!

    Anyone betting on the NFL tonight??

    Fancy the Steelers to cover the 10 point handicap as the Browns,tho slightly improving,are still terrible.

    EVEN money.

    hmmm.. i like it , but id change the handicap from -10 points to -7, still get a 1.56 odd.....

    Steelers have always been a unpredictable team.

    Ill probably include the -7 in a parlay or somthin...

    I just had an even money double on O'Sullivan and Higgins winning their matches in the snooker.

    That, plus another £20, goes on Vitali by stoppage.

    Leaving Friday night alone I think.

    Price for the -10 has went out to 21/20.

    Wonder if thats been affected by teamnews:think

    Im not having a monster bet tonight so will probably be hitting up the -10 handicap to make it worth my while.

    My betting range has been well reduced after an extremely large, drunken Cotto over Pacman bet....

    I only leave things that end up coming in.

    I left Liverpool to lose/draw in midweek, was paying 11/10 :-(

    You shouldn't have listened to me. I am overly pessimistic where Liverpool are concerned because its funny to see them fail.

    :lol:

    I was a little bit unsure myself, hence me saying 'might' lay a bit against them.

    It's just annoying when you have a gut feeling about a few matches and you don't stick it on...... then again, it's good when you are the opposite, like Booth vs Hunter and Simpson vs Trussy.

    And another bet.

    Will leave that there.

    Stoke 60%
    Birmingham/West Ham draw 45%
    Man City 65%
    Burnley/Fulham draw 45%
    Chelsea 75%
    Sunderland 65%
    Man Utd 75%

    Wouldn't say there any bankers, loads of mid-table clashes and Chelsea/United have fairly tough games particularly United with injuries. The safe one is just United/Chelsea at home but I dunno these bets are all wank. I'm still thinking about that Vitali by decision or at least the over.

    no way... i dont see Johnson lasting to long.

    honestly, Johnson is all talk....hes garbage, and i havent even seen him fight. its just a feeling you get that you know someone isnt good.

    i remember he called us on the radio when we were interviewing John Ruiz, and he got all tough at first and then he started to give John a lot of respect.

    The guy is all talk... Vitali is going to teach this guy some manners. Johnson is nobody in the division.
