British Forum BETTING thread

@ mugen. I see. I didn't get an email.

 

Was f*cking gutted last night. I had 10 quid, was going to lump all on Proska by TKO/KO, decided to put 3 quid on instead and the rest on a Martinez stoppage 7-9. Ah well at least I was up 8 quid up. Proska was free money man!!

Right, Spurs & Chelsea double today.

 

What would the bookies have paid out on in the Rees v Matthews fight? the draw? I was kind of hoping they would treat it like a no contest and refund all stakes!! Fat chance!!

 

I laid Gavin Rees on Betfair to win £30 :hat

 

Phil Taylor to win the Grand Prix - 8/5. Very generous as has been the case for about a year or so now.

 

Paddy Power refunded my £10 that i had on Matthews to win by KO! :good

 

2 seperate nfl bets tonight for me

Bet 1

Dallas-2.5 10/11
New Orleans -7 10/11
San Diego -7 19/20
New England -4 10/11
Atlanta -4.5 10/11

Bet 2

St Louis to win 11/8
Green Bay -12 10/11
Cleveland to win 1/1
Ny Jets +4 10/11
Ny Giants -1 10/11

 

Did anyone back this? It came 3rd

 

Did mate :good had in a e/w patent with Dream Ahead and Nahrain, Came out with about 70 Quid :nut

 

pac inside 12 and hopkins outright is a good bet!. 10 quid returns 42.

 

The ****ers didn't refund the bet I had on Rees to win by decision :twisted:

But one for you guys to keep an eye on, on Saturday night they had the Cunningham vs Hernandez fight scheduled for 10:30, the fight was finished before 10 and they were still accepting bets. So when the announcement was made I stuck £40 on Hernandez at 7/2 for a decision. The result was pending all through the night, thought they were just going to refund it. Woke up on Sunday morning £180 richer.

Only reason I stuck £40 on it and no more was because I thought it would've raised major eyebrows and they would've ****ed me over if I went in big.

Something for everyone to keep an eye out for.

 

Happened to me before with Povetkin vs Oruh....Stuck £400 on a Povetkin KO at 1/5

 

If I come across something like this again am putting everything I have on it, they knew they ****ed up (they never have bets pending for 12 hours)so they must have to pay out.

I was praying for a KO in a particular round and was going to lump the £40 on it, the odds for Hernandez were 20's or better for every round. Was kinda gutted even though I still got free money

 

Nah they don't have to pay out actually! I've seen it a few times and the Povetkin one was the only successful one sadly

 

@tam83

I saw that as well and put £150 on Hernandez outright. Kicking myself for not going with him by decision but I only got the bet in with seconds to go. Cant complain with free money though

Happened twice before. One was palpled which was obvious as the fight had happened the full day before. The other was Bika v Mendy. I put some on Mendy after I relaised that Bika had been disqualified @4/1
