British Forum BETTING thread

mine was part of a losing accumulator, so im ****ed either way...

 

Its been too long now. The decision will be final.

I dont think you will get a bet changed after the 48 hour waiting period.

 

I will be but not with much hope. I had 2 singles, one with Betfred (Hopkins pts) and one with Bwin (Hopkins outright). I emailed both at the time and one of them said something to the effect that once 48 hours has elapsed they wouldn't revisit the bet. Still gonna try and if not successful, kick up a fuss.

 

Yes. I rang Victor Chandler just after the event and told them it was part of a 4-fold and asked if it would go forward as a non-runner if it was deemed a NC. They said 'Yes'.

I'm just off the phone to them now they've sent it to the settlement team or something and they'll get back to me but she seemed to suggest that the 4-fold would stand as a treble (obviously without the Hopkins fight)

 

Anybody know if I'll have any luck getting a refund out of Betfair? I might chance my arm and kick up a fuss down the blower.

 

No chance.

 

lol Kell Brook is 1/200 for his fight on Saturday

 

As expected Bwin have said no quoting this rule.

B1.4 Amendment (24 hour rule):

... Any changes to rankings made after 24 hours after the end of the event for whatever reasons, will not be taken into consideration when the outcome of the bet is decided.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further queries.

 

Bet365 said they only take the decision from the ring at the time which is a bit ****

 

Just as I thought. The wankers.

 

How sickening is it that Phil Taylor was 9/4 for this World Championship just after the 2011 tournament?

 

Now 5/6. Wouldn't touch it. Wade or Lewis to win this year. Going to put 50 on the pair of them.

 

He looked done then but you can never write him off. I remember having a ton on him to win the 2009 worlds after the 2008 had just finished, got him at 11/2 after he had lost to Mardle in the quarters and that was when Whitlock and Anderson had yet to cross over! The man comes back stronger every time he loses and gets written off. Would have thought the bookies would learnt that by now.

 

I'd be shocked and impressed if Lewis managed to retain the title with the added pressure of being 'reigning Champ'.

You're right Markyboy86; Taylor gets written off all too easily and others get talked up based on a couple of decent runs in tournaments or some impressive performances in floor events. Take Jus-tin Pipe for example. He is shorter than Terry Jenkins to win the 3rd quarter. Bizarre and quite frankly wrong! Jenkins has come into some sort of form as well.

 

Pipe is a terrible tv player as shown by his choking against Webster at the weekend, 8 missed darts for the match, he is great on the floor when there is not added pressure as shown by his number 1 seeding over the course of all PC events throughout the year.

Taylor highest 3 dart average at 6/4 could be value, the only way he wont get the highest is by the person who knocks him out i think.
