British Forum BETTING thread

Was kind of expected though.

 

It was. I'll see how i get on with them, i've got email chats where they've confirmed the odds and one where they told me my bet would be honoured at the odds i placed it at, so hopefully they stick to it. Can't see it though. ****s.

 

Tell them you'll get in touch with betting standards or whatever it is. I'm sure it's free.

 

I think that's the route to go down for most bookies, not sure where i stand with these jokers though as they are regulated by the gaming commission of Malta. Don't think they fall under the jurisdiction of IBAS.

 

What odds did you get for Santa Cruz stoppage in play and Floyd decision in play

 

Got 8/13 on the Santa Cruz stoppage. About 10 seconds later it went to 8/11 then the first knockdown happened and it went all the way down. Got 4/9 on Floyd but that was in the 4th round i think.

 

Thats decent, Cruz was catching him flush from round 1, and thats decent for Floyd too he wasnt gonna stop him

 

I didn't know much about the Munoz but like most, i thought Santa Cruz would grind him down and stop him in the late rounds. He was hurting him with single shots, so i jumped on as soon as i could. I did cover my stake on the Floyd decision in round 10, i think. Just to be safe, as i've been caught too many times before.

Also, i know nobody cares but i've finally got that bet resolved. I think. I noticed they voided my bet on Wlad, so i asked them about it on Sunday and they never got back in touch. Just spoke to them now and thy've settled it as a winner, at the original odds. I've sent the chat to myself and taken a screenshot of my betslip, just in case. Just need Froch and Haye to win now.

 

Something fishy potentially going on in Italy tomorrow night. The draw is 4/5 on the Genoa v Torino game and a shitload is being thrown at it on Betfair. I was thinking about backing it at 4/5 now with the bookies, then laying it at a lower price when more money goes on nearer kick off. Bookies sometimes void bets on games like this though, so not sure.

 

Great shout this.
Very strange pricing indeed.was the only odds on draw in the full list of matches.
Come to think of it I'm not sure if I can remember the last odds on draw I've seen.....if at all??????
Italian mafia boys strike again

 

It happens every season in Italy during the last couple of months of the season. I remember a game a few years ago that was 4/6 for the draw. I remember another one where there was a silly amount of money on Betfair placed not just on the draw, but a 2-2 draw. I don't have to tell you what score the game finished

done another with

choi ko
burns 7-12
mcdonnell points

cant remember return on that

 

Any reason you fancy the choi ko so much?

 

Just a feeling, simpsons hard as nails and the only guy to stop him was obviously selby who is a great puncher and far younger and fresher....but i remember seeing him hurt by a paul truscott body shot and truscott was a relatively light hitter,this leads me to believe that while his chin is iron he doesnt like digs to the ribs,choi while knocking on is a big puncher and while crude hits well to the body.

i like simpson alot as a fighter i just cant help but thinking while he is a better boxer than choi he will do what he does which is go at choi head 1st and want a tear up and he'll be doing this with a bigger stronger man....theyll both give each other a pasting and i just see choi winning the war of attrition and stopping simpson with a body shot later on

could be wrong but thats how i see it goin.

should re do my accy with choi scoring the ko in rounds 7-12 now i think about it
