faraway saint Posted April 21, 2018 Report Share Posted April 21, 2018 Going for a 6 fold today, don't usually go for that many but season almost over so why not, been a reasonably successful season overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornwall_Saint Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 Done my usual Wullie Hill 7 team sections slip, for the fourth week in five I've finished 5W 1D 1L. Wigan my draw and Bradford my defeat today. On the plus side when I do it for the final time next week until the new season, the £40 I spent (£1 a week) has seen two bets come in totalling at £151.03, so presuming the likelihood next week's bet doesn't come in I'm £111.03 up this season. My mate who does the same has yet to see one come in this season and has only managed 6/7 once. Yet he's beating me 16-15 (8 Draws) in who does better each week I'd rather have the profit margin!

Cornwall_Saint Posted May 5, 2018 Report Share Posted May 5, 2018 Final 7 team section of the season is over (1/4 so far today) but £40 spent this season (£1 a week), £151.03 won from 2 successful bets gives me a very tidy profit of £111.03. Also had 3 other close calls where I managed 6/7. My unfortunate mate didn't have any success this season and only once managed 6/7 I take the Money title back from him after he won it last year. As for who does better every week in general, it's all to play for. He leads 16-15 (8 Draws) so I need to win this weekend to deny him 4 titles in a row.

Denied him beating me 4 years running and I came back from 15-9 down. Now to do a Jack Ross and take the title next year... With the main betting scene for us over until August now, the only focus right now is where we stick £1 every Monday on whatever the hell you like, if it comes in stick it all on a bet on Tuesday, and keep sticking the whole lot on the next day until you succeed on Sunday and can then keep the cash/go tits up and crash out for the week. 18 weeks in and we are both on loss, though I'm beating him £14.24-£13.70. Aside from this I'll probably stick some money on various scenarios in the World Cup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St.Ricky Posted May 6, 2018 Report Share Posted May 6, 2018 Another area where I know only one thing..... I won't lose money either. Question for those who bet... do you win or lose money betting over a season? Just wondering as I don't see any pleasure in it myself.

Question for those who bet... do you win or lose money betting over a season? Just wondering as I don't see any pleasure in it myself. A fair question. I do two main types of bet every week. Both are £1. One bet is the 7 sections slip from William Hill. Simple way to describe it is the top section consists of games like St Mirren v Brechin, Real Madrid v Levante, games which should be bankers. Each section gets harder until you hit section 7, which has bastards like Luton v Accrington, Barnet v Grimsby, Hearts v Hibs. Me and my mate compete on it and pick 1 game from each section (a section gives you 7 choices). It's challenging enough that one bet can give you profit for the year. Aside from playing for cash, me and my mate do a separate competition with it where we see who does better on it each week. We start it in August and the final week was this weekend, then we will start up again a new season in August. You ask about cash, here's my tally from the last 4 years. 2014/15 - £40 spent, 1 bet won (£61.85) +£21.85 profit. 2015/16 + 2016/17 No wins, £39+£41 spent, -£80 over two seasons. 2017/18 - 2 Wins, £151.03 won from £40, £111.03 profit. My other bet (again with my mate) was only started in the first week of this year. Again a £1 stake. Every Monday, you can bet on anything as long as it takes place that day (or starts, as tennis games for instance can be interrupted by rain). That bet comes in, you stick it all on Tuesday. Win, all goes on Wednesday. If you make it to Sunday and win on Sunday, you keep the cash. Bet messes up, it's week over. Then we start again at £1 the next Monday. With it being a new bet for us my figures are weak ATM but here they are. 18 Weeks Played - £18 spent. Me - £14.24 winnings so far means loss of £3.76. Mate - £13.70 winnings so far means loss of £4.30. The way I see it, I'm only spending £2 a week for a bit of fun between my mate and myself. I'm not aiming for serious cash, I don't expect serious cash, I just like the challenge and the excitement. I will also compete in free predictor games, Sky Sports Super 6, UEFA Champions League Predictor, UEFA European Qualifiers Predictor, UEFA Euro 2016, all of which I've set up leagues for mates and myself. Our work League on Super 6 does involve cash between us. I will occasionally bet on big events such as the World Cup or Euros, Super Bowl, Grand National, but aside from things like that I stick to my two £1 bets. Hope this explains my betting enjoyment at least! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mate didn't make it past Monday this week, he had a fourfold but got done by Canada v Latvia (ice hockey), 60 min betting but Canada won in OT, 46 seconds in. On the other hand I really pushed the boat out with Karabukspor v FENERBAHCE at 1/100, their 7-0 victory won me 1p . My £1.01 goes on a double today, Wydad Casablanca and Esperance Tunis in the African Champions League. Wanted a fivefold but half my choices weren't up yet when LDU Quito played and won at 1.15am, then a tennis match got moved to tomorrow because of the shit weather in Rome, then Germany W U17s wasn't available when it came up in-play. So c'mon Esperance and Wydad! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The £1.37 goes onto a treble today. LUBLIN W v Pogon Szczecin W (Handball) RUSSIA W v Thailand W (Volleyball) USA v Singapore (Pool) I was tempted by Atletico to win in 90 mins at 10/11 but bailed on that. Had my eyes on a different tennis match, this time in Busan but that didn't get started due to rain so that's been moved to tomorrow.
