Peterborough games to score more than 3.5 goals is the gift that just keeps on giving.

 

Anyone an American football fan-

Was looking at this for later

Will either team score 3 unanswered times? (Touchdown, field goal or safety only)
Yes 3/5

No 6/5

Seems big for one team to score 3 times without the other team scoring in between doesnt it?

 

**** West ham even with 5 strikers on they couldn't score :verysad

There's always next week though

 

Remember watching last year? One team was unbeaten all season and threw it all away to a team you would liken to barnet v chelsea. Superbowl anything at all can happen. After last year I promised to myself I would back the underdogs this year so I am on steelers. But packers receivers will be rapid on this surface.

To answer be careful it may include a touchdown, resulting field goal attempt as two then your only one away from losing. Or if they go for the extra 2 points instead of the field goal.

Anyone get burnt by Arsenal? 1.01 and 1.02 matched for over £1,300,000 on betfair. Remember they did that earlier on in the year throwing away a big lead. Might have been against West Brom.

 

It was Tottenham who they thrown away a 2-0 lead to. West Brom were beating them 3-0 at the Emirates.

 

Was it really spurs? I remember it was as a **** team because they were 1.01 (something that statistically shoudl lose 1 in a 1000 times) 2-0 to spurs would not have been 1.01. It was last season.

brb gonna try and find out

yeh I turned off at 4-0, I had arsenal in a accu bet. man city winning 3-0 aswell and i've put it down as a win and am looking what time man u and wolves game is coming up, now those wins were set in my mind solidly when my dad tells me it's 4-3 so we put it on and newcastle score... i'm feeling chuffed at the come back (forgetting I had a bet on), go to my unsettled bets in my account after the match to see nothing in there, I'm thinking they've made a mistake as i'm excited about the next match then it clicks that I had arsenal in a accu, so stupid.

 

Thats not the game I am thinking of. A black guy scored the last goal from the edge of the area bounced before it went in. Keeper should have saved it. Gonna find it. It was last season.

 

Wigan?

The saying 'theres always one that lets you down on a accumulator' unlucky pal. The real probability of that ever happening is so low.

 

Backing something at 1.01 is ****ing *******s.

When I manage to lay something at that price I can't help but laugh really.

Sometimes you lay a bet off and end up losing out on some profit, but for me the ''guarantee a profit'' approach is generally ok, especially when you consider that you can back something, lay it off and the result doesn't happen.

I backed four games as singles to be draws, laid them all off at various points and only one finished level, yet I made good money on three of them.

 

It is something you need a really big bank to make anything worthwhile from. But, then to have a big bank in the first place you must have got there from doing well without backing the 1.01s. I have done it on occasions but never feel safe doing.

I lost backing 1.01 on Utd V WBA earlier in the season and Victor Ortiz V Lamont Peterson (coming in from a night out checking odds and just backing blindly) And Gasquet I lost on backing 1.01 he was 6-2 and 5-1 in 2nd served for it twice got broken twice had 3 more mps in tb lost them then up a break in 3rd set and lost that in a breaker.

Yeah I never feel safe backing a 1.01 as you can never green out and even if the odds go higher one tick you have lost money. This weekend I had one bet coming home from work and laid sunderland v stoke. Watched 2nd half and was all one way. Which was a nice earner then lost some of it today coming home from work at 2nd half and figured chelsea cant lost to liverpool again. (Remember losing on them first time around) And laid liverpool next goal at 6s Chelsea just arn't the force they used to be.

What programs do you use beeston? I like gruss.

 

£10 on Meireles to score the first goal at 16/1
Bet in play at half time, £10 on Liverpool to win 9/2 (crazy odds with how the game was going).
