Who do you reckon for the womens? Both semi-finals seem deadlocked.

[skel1983]

Who do you reckon for the womens? Both finals seem deadlocked.

Yes I like Stosur, I am thinking of having a biggish bet on her actually to beat Jankovic at 8/11. I think she has looked good from what I have seen.

[TFFP]

Stosur has a good serve(s) I noticed. She has a good kicker second serve, most of them have really pissy weak offerings second time up.

[ScouseLad]

Duddy 23/10 to beat Jr? Fucking hell!!

I dont rate him but Chavez is hardly astonishing is he? I had this 50/50 with Duddy slightly better but evened out by the judges probably favouring the potential cash cow. Freddie Roach or not Duddy defo has his chances here.

[Beeston Brawler]

If it's anything resembling close it will definitely go to Chavez.

Duddy probably has to win at least nine rounds to get a decision. I think he's good enough to do it but wouldn't put my money where my mouth is, especially on his recent form.

Unless he can knock him out.... any thoughts on Chavez and his chin?

Wayne Mardle vs Mick McGowan 6/4

Van Persie to outscore Tevez at the world cup 10/11:

Holland are going further (Argentia out in the group stages hopefully).
Tevez will likely be restricted to substitute appearences.
Van Persie is the man, Tevez a headless chicken in their teams systems.

Will tevez play is the reason behind that value. Maradona does not know or play his best team. Argies have messi, aguero and millito as well as tevez.

[mryeags]

Will tevez play is the reason behind that value. Maradona does not know or play his best team. Argies have messi, aguero and millito as well as tevez.

And does Tevez take the spot kicks for the Bargies ? .... we certainly know Van Percil will be hitting the back of the net from 12 yards ...

[China_hand_Joe]

I am assuming one game off the bench for Tevez and the bet is on?





In Argentina's last 3 friendlies Tevez has started one, came on a a sub in one.





The coach of Argentina, Diego Maradona will start tomorrow to form the team he has in mind for the Saturday to face Nigeria in the first match of 2010 World Cup.

“I will define the team in Pretoria” said Maradona in recent days in the city of Buenos Aires.

The team is already in Pretoria. Maradona will begin to shape the eleven that will start from the beginning in the World Cup.

There is little doubt as to how the team will form, because the players that beated Germany in Munich on 3 March, have more chances to play.

On defense, the doubt is the income of Clemente Rodríguez by Nicolás Otamendi.

With this doubt, the team for the debut would be with Sergio Romero; Otamendi or Rodriguez, Martin Demichelis, Walter Samuel and Gabriel Heinze, Javier Mascherano, Jonas Gutierrez, Juan Sebastian Veron, Angel Di Maria, Lionel Messi and Gonzalo Higuain.

The good time of Diego Milito and Carlos Tevez make Maradona doubt who, however, wants to train a lot before the possibility of playing with three strikers.

The eleven who will play against Nigeria, even to win, would not be the same as those facing South Korea and Greece, for Maradona after analyzing the three opponents in those games could include some surprise that no one has in mind yet.

“I looked at all the rivals, we analyze the coaching staff and we know where we have to hurt,” Maradona said last week.

There are 14 days for the debut of Argentina in the World Cup and in these two weeks there will be many trials and speculations, which will be unveiled on June 12, when the game against Nigeria begins.

[Grant1]

Rhys Davies is definitely worth a bet at the Welsh Open starting Thursday.

20/1.

Sitting 4th, after a bogey free round, 2 off the lead.

1/4 of the odds for first five is a great bet.

[kosaros]

Old granny off BGT to win the semi-final tonight currently at 11/8 with William Hill. Absolute certainty IMO.

[Beeston Brawler]

Glad I left the Saffies alone against the West Indies...... had it all but won half an hour ago, lost a couple of wickets and started blocking.

Need a run a ball with 12 overs left.

[skel1983]

Nice win today on Stouser, am on small with Berdych just for the value no way he is 9/5 shot I was thinking I was gunna get about 5/4 for Bird man.

I have also put £20 quid on Soderling to win the whole thing at 9/2, and the same £20 on Berdych at 14/1 to win it, bit silly maybe as Nadal will not even break sweat against Melzer and Berdych and Soderling maybe invloved in a long hard game.

But like I said before Nadal has been far from his best this event and Soderling and Berdych have the game to beat him.

[kosaros]

Don't say I don't know anything about crappy talent shows :yep

[djoc175]

Had a wee shocker with the darts there.

England vs Bangladesh 2nd test - the draw is 11/2 (Coral) and shortening everywhere. The forecast is very damp for the whole course of this match.

Sorry son. He played shit just as I thought he would (Emmanuel Steward) but McGowan was even worse. I couldn't believe the standard. The number of 5's and 1's they hit was incredible. I was hoping to find some value against him in the next round but he's drawn Phil.

[djoc175]

Ronnie Baxter vs Chris Thompson 1/2

Michael Van Gerwen is 11/4 to beat Gary Anderson

New kid William O'Connor is playing another qualifier Peter Wright. He's evens.

Also a lot of talk about Joe Cullen. He's 7/2 vs Mervyn King who was very average at the back end of the PL.

Was that the lad in the green n white shirt last night ? ... had a 95+ average ??? .....

[djoc175]

Yeah that's him. Seems to be the best of the new crop. EVENS has already gone since I posted that. 9/10 now.

[mryeags]

Yeah that's him. Seems to be the best of the new crop. EVENS has already gone since I posted that. 9/10 now.

I will have some of that he looked very composed on the oche even though his first round opponent threw really poorly ! His game was consistent and a 95+ average is good no matter what level your playing at...

Could be one of those lads with a bit of luck gets through to the sunday ....

[mryeags]

Yeah that's him. Seems to be the best of the new crop. EVENS has already gone since I posted that. 9/10 now.

had him in a double with Nicholson .... Kirk Shepherds very hot n cold and Nicholsons A game is too good for Shepherd....

Nothing standing out on the rugby this weekend.

Huddersfield to win at Bradford (7/5) is the best bet in my opinion..... they are the fitter side, which will be key with the hot weather :yep

Agree with you there ...Giants just plateau'd the last few weeks and there due a good performance ! ...havent been overly imporessed with the Bulls... is Kearney back?

Backed the Eels in running against Melbourne today and fancy Dragons and rabbitohs in a double ... :good
Superleagues pretty tight ... saints 8/13 at Hull tonite but wouldnt be overly keen on that ...
Do you read Ian Millwards tips on the sportinglife site ? ... not overly impressed at all ...

No, I can't find any team news..... probably worth waiting to find out.

I fancy Saints to win, Hull's defence isn't great.... I just don't think they are as good as their league position indicates, I think I'll take that actually thinking about it :yep

Not read Millward's tips, might have a look though :good

[Grant1]

:patsch ... no no no !!... the proper game not that kick n clap stuff

Not allowed to watch that, I'm not from northern England :lol:

[djoc175]

I had £2 on Nicholson at 70 on Betfair. With a favourable draw he could go far. He's got the game to beat anyone.

Dylan Duo is 6/1 to beat Osbourne:think

[China_hand_Joe]

A 95 average against an opponent throwing badly is more impressive, as you are getting more throws at doubles to bring down that average.

[kosaros]

Tua to stop Barrett is 4/11 with Sporting Bet. Can anyone see anything other than this happening? McDermott at 3/1 to win by decision against Fury has some value as well.

[daveyboy1609]

Yep, didn't see that. Even better :D

You really can pick them. :roll:

Hope no one got involved in molde match earlier tonight. 3-0 up and 3 extra time goals drew the game.

[djoc175]

South Africa are 3/4 to beat WI in the 1st test. This was 10/11 on Betfair:shock: The game will likely be rain affected though.

[craigseventy]

5 out of 7 ain't bad. I went on advice in this thread about foreman.

You're moaning at people picking the winner! :lol:;)

[craigseventy]

is anyone betting on the opening game of the world cup? people fancy south africa or mexico?

[djoc175]

Mexico. I have £2 on them at 9/5. I'm keeping stakes to a minimum for the group stages.

I like Serbia to beat Ghana - 6/5. Maybe even with a clean sheet but I won't get giddy.

[TFFP]

For this weekend I like...

Mexico 13/8

Argentina 1/2

England 1/2

[djoc175]

Anyone else think south africa worth a bet to get through as hosts always seem to get through the groups????

I think you'd be better off laying against France qualifying.

[TFFP]

You do not like Serbia?
Oh shit yeah it starts Friday...

Serbia 6/5

Germany 8/15 (Aussies been looking wank)

[craigseventy]

to hagman, yes he is clearly joking, but i'm up on my bets so couldn't give a fuck.

yeh I put 2 on mexico aswell I only got 5/7 but still pretty confident in it. I also agree with tffps picks but would add the serbia onto it also.

wouldn't be confident betting on the france game.

[TFFP]

Germany actually have some great young talent, losing Ballack could be a blessing in some ways. Marin and Ozil should shine, should be too much for the gutsy Aussies.

[hagman1989]

to hagman, yes he is clearly joking, but i'm up on my bets so couldn't give a fuck.

to be honest you culda got 1/7 and hed still have a cheek saying that with his record

[Bonavena25]

Agree about Germany maybe being better off losing Ballack. I think in some ways he's been holding them back over the last couple of years, loping around the midfield like a zombie providing a 'steadying influence'.

Think they could surprise. Young, fresh side, with players like Ozil and Cacau, and the Bayern pair Muller and Badstuber.

Tempted with Uruguay Double Chance against France. Don't rate France at all and Forlan and Suarez will fancy their chances against a shot Gallas and left back in Abidal who is playing centrally.

[craigseventy]

ha, well i'm pretty new to betting to be honest, kinda started through visiting this thread actually. I don't think i'm doing too bad I keep bets low, mainly been betting on friendlies lately just so I'm more interested in watching them and can get a feel for teams in the world cup. Currently watching spain vs poland, I've watched spain a few times lately and they look a really really good side.

[TFFP]

Chile to beat Honduras would be a very solid play I think. The odds have been coming in on that.

[RichT]

Agree with the WC picks for this weekend. I had previously warned off picking Serbia over Ghana for a couple of reasons but the injury setback that has ruled Essien out puts the nail in the coffin for Ghana as far as I'm concerned. Find it slightly difficult to rule out SA since they haven't really had much of a test in warm up (and therefore isn't much form to go on) games but Mexico have been above average.

Bonavena - Would you give Cacau a chance at the Golden Boot? I asked Bet365 for a price and they offered 66/1. I fancy them to score a few as a team and Podolski and Klose are in dreadful form.

[RichT]

Chile to beat Honduras would be a very solid play I think. The odds have been coming in on that.

:deal

It's a shame they're scheduled to face Brazil in the next round otherwise I think they could have done alright.

[RichT]

Does noone fancy South Korea against Greece? 2/1

I think Greece have been awful and the South Koreans are looking very well organised. Could be the second qualifier from the group behind Argentina for me. :think

[djoc175]

Chile to beat Honduras would be a very solid play I think. The odds have been coming in on that.
Yeah. I stuck them in a double with Spain (vs Switzerland) on the same day. Again, only small mainly because I had a go on the forecast of 1st - Spain 2nd - Chile. All the eggs in one basket:nono

If he gets a starting spot then you never know. He's a very lively striker and Germany seem to playing an expansive game. They also have a handy group.

The problem is Miroslav "I'm shite apart from the world cup" Klose. There's a possibility he flukes a couple of goals early on and gets the nod for the duration. However Cacau has been replacing him in friendlies and doing well so he might start.

That's the obvious dilemma I've been trying to decide upon.

Reckon I'll stick £1 on it just so that I don't kick myself too much if it comes in. :yep

[craigseventy]

mine i've placed so far, everyone else post there's up when they get them sorted. Only one i'm not overly confident about is france but I thought evens was pretty good.


ermany vs Australia 1/2

Serbia vs Ghana 6/5

England vs USA 1/2

Uruguay vs France evens

South Africa vs Mexico 7/5

[RichT]

I've got Chile and Argentina double at 1.4/1.

England and Chile double at around 1.3/1

Argentina and Spain double at evens.

and a throw away £1 bet on both a Mexico and Uruguay double at 8.5/1, and a South Korea and Serbia double at 5.3/1.

England and Slovenia double at 2.4/1 ?

[craigseventy]

germany vs Australia 1/2

Serbia vs Ghana 6/5

England vs USA 1/2

Uruguay vs France evens

South Africa vs Mexico 7/5[/quote]

those plus argentina to win is 25/1 on accumulator.

[skel1983]

Massive bet for me, get on it!!!!

Ginepri to beat Queerey 13/8, great odds!!!

[lefthook82]

Forlan over 1.5 goals at 5/6 with Sky Bet

Surely that is a giveaway. He will start all the games and noone in that group is defensively solid. He also takes penalties. Have dropped £30 on it but whne I grow some balls I'll put more on

Also have put £20 on Fabiano at 4/6 also with Sky Bet. He could do that in 1 game, definately in 3.

[johna_83]

Crouch is 4/6 with Paddy Power to start against the yanks.....

Rooney-Heskey seemed like the partnership but Heskey hasn't started any of the warm up games and Crouch has got the number 9 shirt....surely this is printing money!?!? (Heskey is 5/4)

[noonan]

Heskey will start if fit

[djoc175]

Something caught my eye:

Brazil vs North Korea

Brazil to win both halves - 10/11 (Paddy Power)

[RichT]

Something caught my eye:

Brazil vs North Korea

Brazil to win both halves - 10/11 (Paddy Power)

Like it. Brazil to win by 2.5 goals at over even money as well.

Great start for me today with a draw draw double as well as a SA Mexico both to score.

Had Mexico uruguay both to win form a week or two back as well so only won £15 but nice to get off to a good start,

Italy vs New Zealand

Italy to win to nil - 5/6 (Skybet)

[Mr. V.I.P.]

Get on england to win against usa. Already 1m + matched with just under a day yet till the game. Sure to trade lower. Nice free bet before it starts.

[Beeston Brawler]

I think a lot of these first games will end up as draws.

All the teams yesterday seemed scared of getting beat rather than going out and winning, maybe apart from Mexico in the first half against the Saffies.

I just want England to assert themselves rather than playing the slow, passing it along the back four routine that will allow America to get men behind the ball...... that's when England really struggle.

[hagman1989]

anyone got a feeling for the liddell v frankli tonight

[Grant1]

Holland/Italy double on Monday pays 2/1.

I don't suppose you backed SA to beat WI did you? I left alone the 21/10 that was going around the time SA were 70/3 in their 1st inns:verysad Fucking WI are a sham.

Holland win, Japan-Cameroon Draw, Italy - Paraguay Draw

20$ to win 270$

[RichT]

Holland win, Japan-Cameroon Draw, Italy - Paraguay Draw

20$ to win 270$

I'd been having a look at this draw double. The Japan Cameroon one is the one I'm least comfortable with but at around the usual 10/1 for a double draw it does offer good value.

GL

:good

[Beeston Brawler]

Are Paraguay any good?

I've not seen anything of them......

[RichT]

Are Paraguay any good?

I've not seen anything of them......

I've only seen small clips of them but they look pretty compact and have shown a bit of class going forward from what I've seen (although don't get all that many goals). They finished 3rd in their qualifying group (level on points with Chile in second), just one point behind Brazil.

Not convinced that they're world beaters but nor am I convinced Italy are this time around either. They've been, Italy, pretty awful in the warm up and obviously struggled a bit in qualifying.

[RichT]

Any big wins or losses yet?

Serbia cost me the bastards. Had a 5 result 30/1 shot go down thanks to them alone.

South korea
Slovenia
Serbia
Germany
Holland

:|

Also had them in a 4/1 double with S Korea. :-(

Now waiting on the following as one half of doubles where the first has come in:

Chile (Argentine in)
Spain (Argentina in)
Slovakia (Holland in)

[Bonavena25]

Those fuckers England cost me, or should I say Green cost me. Had them in a four-fold with Argentina, Holland and Germany. £10 would have gotten me around £55.

God that's horrible, always a killer when one team lets you down. You almost want the other teams to lose as well to make you feel better. Krasic should have scored in that match as well. Shot straight at the keeper.

Yeah I lost £8 thanks to Green as well. Not sure what it would have netted me but prob around £25.

Serbs were so disappointing. Almost as much as Cameroon have just been. :lol:

Denmark must be a good shout to beat Cameroon next.

:admin Denmark 13/8 to beat Cameroon. Watched both games today. Denmark looked decent, not spectacular but solid, and could have taken the lead against the Dutch. Cameroon looked as bad as anything I've seen all competition so far. Couldn't string more than 4 passes together, no final ball, no creativity and they couldn't even win the aerial battle against the Japanese

[djoc175]

I watched Paraguay lose to Ireland a couple of weeks ago but I wouldn't take much from that. I wouldn't like to call tonights game. I don't know about Italy.

[johna_83]

Italy are terrible, the 4/6 on offer at Paddy's for Paraguay Double Chance (draw or win) is a great bet IMO.

[craigseventy]

can anyone see slovakia scoring 3 tomorrow? I've placed a bet on slovakia double chance 1 0 and 2-1 which returns 3.50 for every quid, then a new zealand win - draw no bet. seems like a good way for low risk tomorrow.

[kosaros]

Rodrigo Bracco is 10/1 to beat Jamie McDonnell. Now I think McDonnell will win, but I feel Bracco is better than a 10/1 shot. Good stamina, always coming forward, good chin, can whack a bit - I think this will be a tough fight for McDonnell, and like we seen with Napa vs Bouziane, these unknown Euro's at the lower weights can cause an upset.

I like the second multi..... the only bet that I'm a bit shaky on is the Saffies to draw with Uruguay. I'd lean toward Uruguay in that one.

Think I'll steal it though :thumbsup

[TFFP]

Honduras could potentially be without 2 key players, I'd fancy Chile strongly.

[TAM83]

Some good looking prices coming up.

Germany 8/13 against Serbia

Ghana 10/11 against Australia (missing Cahill)

Nigeria 19/20 against Greece

[craigseventy]

got 2 - 0 on this game right now so hope it stays that way.

I've got a accumulator ending on spain tomorrow, pretty confident in it, wasn't so confident at half time of this one when it was 0-0.

[djoc175]

Humberto Suazo to score anytime - 6/4 BUT wait for confirmation of team news because apparently he's touch and go. This fucker has to score.

[RichT]

Honduras could potentially be without 2 key players, I'd fancy Chile strongly.

Having seen New Zealand score a last minute equaliser to screw a double I had on Slovakia and Holland I'm starting to get unsure about my picks but I have to go with TFFP on this one. Chile are a classy side and should be able to deal with a full strength Honduras never mind a wekened one.

Picked up a double draw on the first set of games but leaving the France, SA, Uruguay Maxico group alone from here on in I thnk. Too close to call.

[punchdrunkgench]

is it just me or does it sound daft everytime a white commentator calls south africa bafana bafana
my wife just went who is this bafana guy he is everywhere!

[lefthook82]

Forlan over 1.5 goals at 5/6 with Sky Bet

Surely that is a giveaway. He will start all the games and noone in that group is defensively solid. He also takes penalties. Have dropped £30 on it but when I grow some balls I'll put more on



:deal

Wish I found those balls in time

[Beeston Brawler]

It was the sort of bet you put a few quid on and wish you'd put a month's wage on :lol:

To be fair, there was no way of knowing with them.... if they'd lost to France and he had a shocker in a 0-0 vs the Saffies they'd have been wide open against the Mexicans and you might have lost.

£30 is an alright bet, if you lose you just stay in one night..... if you win it's a free few pints :yep

[lefthook82]

true @ beeston

I rememeber wanting to put about 2000 on darren bent over 10.5 goals at 11/10 on. I settled on putting down 100 because you never know with injuries etc

[Grant1]

Rhys Davies is definitely worth a bet at the Welsh Open starting Thursday.

20/1.

Sitting 4th, after a bogey free round, 2 off the lead.

1/4 of the odds for first five is a great bet.

If anybody took this and trebled their money, Rhys is probably worth an EW for the US Open.

100/1.

I've gone 25EW.

[PrideOfWales]

Bet of the century here... fill your boots:

New Zealand (minus 18) at 1.90 (10/11) to beat Wales on Saturday

Wales ravaged by injuries are lightweight, inexperienced and in poor form.

New Zealand just smashed a decent Ireland team. I'm on this big.

[Grant1]

They didn't. Did you watch the game?

It was 10-0 and Ireland were camped on thier line when Heaslip got sent off.

The try New Zealand had scored came from a break away, again when Ireland were attacking.

You say forget the fact that they were down to 14 (and 13) men but the average score change when a team is down for 14 for 10 minutes is -7.

So look at an hour and you'd 42 points down without taking into consideration the extra fatigue.

Losing a man in rugby is fucking huge.

Anyway, back to the question, is it -10 or -18?

Anyway, back to the question, is it -10 or -18?

Losing a man is not actually that huge if you're playing against NZ. NZ never commit ANY men to a breakdown that they cannot win so they will always have more defenders than the opponent has attackers. This is simple basic rugby that we in the NH do not understand. We pile 3, 4, 5 bodies into a ruck that's not even being contested. We always will be outnumbered.

NZ do not scrummage. So losing a backrow forward is irrelevent in the set pieces. Back rowers are always the most expendable which is why a they are always replaced if there is a sending off or a front rower is sin binned.

Besides, we'll have players sin binned on Saturday because the pressure will be too much.

If you're playing against a strong, bruising team who are very physical then yes, I reckon the strain of a sending off will take its toll. But against NZ, who will basically try and scythe you apart, it doesn't mean very much.

We're going to get fucking smashed on Saturday.

Nope.

I've been waiting for the book to open.

Up to 15 was NZ.
15 to 20 was my no bet zone.
20+ was Wales.

New Zealand have it all to do and will come 3rd in the Tri-Nations :deal

[kosaros]

Salam to win Prizefighter is 9/4 - with Quigley dropping out, he will soon be made the favourite. Mendy at 14/1 is worth a punt as well.

I'm on over 2.5 at 9/5 wth Betfair and both temas to score. France v Mexico

£30 stake in total.

Does anybody like Andre Ward to stop Green? I had it at Boyle sort of as a free bet because they put £5 into my Casino account and I managed to double it on Roulette. 6/4.

I hate to say I told you so but............

[Beeston Brawler]

The Aussies look dangerous..... they wasted two opportunities to put pressure on by taking penalty attempts from way out on the touchline.... daft.

I still think they are the fitter side and will pull away late.

[Grant1]

I hate to say I told you so but............

Good for 50 minutes then started missing tackles.

Sort one thing and another goes tits up.

Should have been in front half time, the platform was there to run them close, as I thought it'd be.

We've gone backwards at a rate of knots since 2007. Alarmingly, the handling skills and running style that we became famous for has almost completely diminished and we're back to where we were 10 years ago. Very depressing. We're getting worse not better steadily. I could see this hammering coming a mile off and filled my boots with that bet. We were always going to get smashed, no two ways about it.

NZ -18 was like giving money away.

That last 30 was like nothing that has gone before, you must be pyschic if you seen that coming.

Our fitness level just wasn't there when, up til now, we've been as fit as anybody in the world.

Forty missed tackles? Again, you wouldn't have seen that coming.

Your bet come in, so you were right, but we both know you didn't see it coming in the way it did.

We'll be fine come World Cup time, I'm sure of it. Whether we'll have 22 fit bodies in the quarters, given our group, is another thing !!

Bets for ward fight? Ward decision at 2s looks big.

I just think that Ward will knock Green out latish. Ward by KO has shortened.

[emallini]

[Bonavena25]

Some good value bets for the first round at Wimbledon.

Juan Carlos Ferrero to beat Xavier Malisse at 11/10 is good bet.

Also Nicolas Almagro to beat Andreas Seppi at 5/6 is worth backing.

[Pecsaetan]

Bets for ward fight? Ward decision at 2s looks big.

Yeah Ward by decision/technical decision for me. He might be the next big thing (or the yanks want him to be) but if he's got any sense he'll be wary of Green's punch and won't over commit. Also he's still quite inexperienced, so I'm going for a clear UD.

Yeah he is still quite green imo but will be too much for Green who got outboxed by Miranda.

[lefthook82]

Uraguay v Mexico: over 1.5 goals is at 16/19 with Betfair, add that with Nigeria v South Korea over 1.5 goals and you get a double of 2.6

Mexico and Uruguay wil be going at it hammer and tong to avoid Argentina and South Korea and Nigeria will be going at it because its basically a winner takes all match considering that Argies should deal with Greece comfortably


I also have a 10/1 treble that I think is interesting

Slovakia v Paraguay, Mexico v Uruguay both teams to score, Argentina -1 v Greece

[Bonavena25]

Almugro should beat Seppi but has a goring injury, Ferrero no chance the v alue is with Mallise, Ferrero just got beat off some mug in Halle who was a lucky loser and ranked 260 in the world.

[TFFP]

There is a ton of value I can see in Wimbledon. Aside from the 1/2 type prices that I really see winning...here is a good one


Carsten Ball is 13/10, big server on the grass, can serve and volley. Has a 2-0 record over Berankis at Challenger level on hard courts, but he hasn't just beat him he's beat him in straight sets and comfortably.

I like this bet on a Duddy win at 23/10... JCC Jr doesnt look anything special

Tempted to go Duddy KO/TKO/DQ at 8/1 and cover it with JCC Jr on points at evens. Stake back if JCC Jr wins on Points, 80 quid if Duddy wins by TKO/KO as I think he'll do.

[Beeston Brawler]

Duddy by KO or Chavez PTS is the smart bet.

Is this 12 rounds?

I'm not convinced by Chavez at all, especially with two extra rounds.... he can't punch for toffee and hasn't been in with any decent punchers to assess his chin.

Duddy will need to really whip him though to get a decision, I can see Roach pulling Chavez out late, his heart ain't in in.

On the footy, does anyone fancy Uruguay and Mexico to draw at 10/11?

:lol:

[LHL]

Anyone get on Uruguay at 3/1 to win, was out earlier and near had a fit looking at that (sean Grahams had it). Stuck 20 on that and out it in a £5 accumulator

[djoc175]

I was surprised to see Mexico made favourites aswell.

[djoc175]

I'm tempted by Eoin Morgan being England's top scorer in this innings coming up but I try and stay away from bets involving individual players. 6/1 is good though and it's a big enough total.

Wait until the weigh-in - it will tell us an awful lot :yep

I've gone for Paraguay and Italy both to win..... Paraguay have more guile than the Italians who laboured like hell against the Kiwis, and Slovakia are shite so the Italians ought to win here. Betfair 6/5.

Should that be successful, I'm going use some winnings to have a double on Holland beating Cameroon (4/5) and Denmark over Japan (5/4).

Serbia cost me the bastards. Had a 5 result 30/1 shot go down thanks to them alone.

South korea
Slovenia
Serbia
Germany
Holland

Also had them in a 4/1 double with S Korea. :-(





Gone for 6 folds from these seven outcomes:

Italy V Paraguay under 2.5 goals @ 1/2
Serbia V Ghana under 2.5 goals @21/40
Honduras V Chile @ 8/13
Germany V Serbia @ 4/5
Ghana V Germany @ 8/11
Cameroon V Holland @ 4/5
Portugal V Brazil @ 5/6

£14 stake. £300 max. win.



Don't often drag up old quotes but those fucking Serbs have got me seriously pissed. :-(

At least £250 worse off (at this point I probably would have laid half of the £300 win on Portugal/draw double chance) than I would have been if I could have predicted their pissing results and potentially £320 worse off.

Any thoughts on this double?

N Korea V I Coast 4/11
Switzerland V Honduras less than 2.5 goals 4/5

1.45/1

John Terry to cry v Germany is 8/1. Only thing is you can only out a fiver on. With SkyBet

He has letters from all bookies stating his business is no longer required. Only william Hill allow him to bet in their shops too. But only at a profit of £14. So he can only bet £1 @14/1, £2 @7/1 etc etc

What he does is pass tips out to people and goes halfs with them. For these free bets he takes only a split of the original bet and nothing off the 'free' bet.

Nice lad like, Beeston's met him too. Anyway I think McDermott will scrape through a tough tough fight.

£47.50 back, nice profit. Took the money closed the account

Betfair have a offer. Free £25 bet if you lose. You open an account and bet upto £25. If it loses you get a free bet of £25 - I was thinking £25 on Germany to beat England 3-1 @ odds of 40-1. Thats £975 :yep

I seriously doubt you'd be up backing them every game. The home games are often 1/8, one fuck up there can cost you a ton and if you win you've got little to show for it. I just can't see the bookies being that dumb to give prices that aren't statistically likely to be a loser over the long term but I havn't researched it.

You'd have to draw the line somewhere..... 1/4 or something.

Fucking Swiss - fly in just to fuck every cunt's accumulator, then jet out again when that job's done. I'd included their win against Honduras in a five fold to soften the inevitable Germany victory, but sure enough, the useless cunts couldn't hit a cow's arse with a banjo.

Catch = 10 points
Wicket = 20 points

I doubt it but you never know, Fed's had some surprising results of late but looked pretty good against Meltzer.

Time to think about/discuss Uruguay vs Ghana. Real chance to make some money on this one. Uruguay's forwards are deadly and are sure to put up more goals on Ghana than the USA did, and several of Ghana's key players will be out.

Time to think about/discuss Uruguay vs Ghana. Real chance to make some money on this one. Uruguay's forwards are deadly and are sure to put up more goals on Ghana than the USA did, and several of Ghana's key players will be out. What do you think about laying a big wager down on Uruguay to win in regulation at +105 odds? Safe bet?

I would say so definitely.

[IronG]

I would say so definitely.

Thanks for the input man, im really thinking about going in big on this game.

[djoc175]

Uruguay to qualify is 8/15. Better off doing that like Beeston Brawler said. They're decent odds though aswell IMO.

[Grant1]

Have people ever bet on ''Player performance'' on the cricket? (Bet365)

Here's an example for tomorrow's ODI:

Ricky Ponting

Under 32 5/6
32 & over 5/6

1 run = 1 point
Catch = 10 points
Wicket = 20 points

Is that an example or an actual bet?

Take the over if it's an actual.

I'd be having 60 on that.

[mike464]

Nadal 4/6 to beat Soderling at BetFred

[mryeags]

Yup to qualify is the better option .... include Spauin to qualify as well and it pays 4/5 .... put Brazil to qualify too and the treble is 13/8 with stanley james .... i like the look of this :good

[djoc175]

Take the over if it's an actual.

I'd be having 60 on that.
Yeah that's an example of an actual bet. The only problem with Ponting is he is an out and out batsman. If he fails with the bat you've fucked it. That said this pitch should be a flat one at The Oval and he's due.

Swann and Collingwood are both over/under 36. That means 2 wickets for Swann would cover it on a pitch that should offer some turn.

I agree with them picks. I think Spain will win in 90 and Brazil look very polished. If I were to pick out a bet from them games I might go with Uruguay to qualify in a double with Spain to win in 90. I'd just be wary of Holland because they have a lot of quality players but Brazil look very hard to beat.

yeah i know what ur saying and i think the Dutch have another gear yet but Brazil have been outstanding ... counterattacking football at its best ! ... ive got a big punt on em at 6/4 to get to the final so im hoping I can wipe that smile of Seedorfs face on the beeb ! ...seems a good guy but a wins a win ! :good

That's a boss bet. Might sign up with bet365 as a reult haha. Seriously tho, pontings a decent fielder so i'd defo back that

45no at the moment Ponting.

Swann has a wicket too.

[djoc175]

Yeah Ponting has pissed on the over 32 line. Did you back it? In hindsight, I think they may have been to generous with 32 at The Oval for Ponting.

[TFFP]

Of course Berdych can beat Fed!

[cankerd]

Of course Berdych can beat Fed!
Fair play to you, sir. I'd rolled £50 into just over £700 over the past week and stuck it all on Federer believing I was buying money. That'll learn me!

[skel1983]

Of course Berdych can beat Fed!


TFFP my man i no you are a huge Berdych fan I think he can beat Nole at evs what's your opinion of the game, I am thinking of going big on this the only negative is the h2h and how easily Nole has dealt with Bird man in the past but 2010 version of Berdych seems a different proposistion what do you think?

[Mr. V.I.P.]

If your gonna go big on anything go big on nadal. Fed has been slipping for years now and has not looked good in years. Too passive nowadays and does not have the drive. Lets not forget his first match in wimbledon when he got lucky against a journeyman. Berdych lucky to face a faded player. Nadal will rape Murray who got handed his win due to tsonga leaving that shot in the tb that dropped in.

Mate serious do you think I would take advice off you?? Come on most your tips are shite add to that I think you said at the french open Berdych has no power lmfao!!!!

Nadal has been owned by Murray in the last to slams they have met at add to that Nadal is injured, Nadal could win but I think there is way more value with Berdych Nole always has a meltdown at a slam and Berdych is playing amazing this year, Federer is injured yes not the player he was but Berdych has been solid all year he is value for me at 50/50 and I can get evs, Murray has chances for me. Add to that Nadal is 4/6 not so great value.

:lol: Thanks for your money if you use betfair. Murray on grass V nadal and you back murray? Incredible. :lol:And how can you pick berdych over djokovic. Name one advantage he has over him. And you can not really think berdych has power can you?:lol:

[Beeston Brawler]

Berdych doesn't have power?

:lol:

He was pushing Federer back most of the match..... very few people have the ability to do that and neutralise Fed's all round play as well as he did, even though Fed was below par.

Fed is too passive he was not struggling to return the shots. He is a baseline player always has been.

[TFFP]

Point is Berdych is the some of the 'easiest' power on tour. He doesn't even need to take a giant swing like a Soderling, he's in the Del Potro ilk of natural power and timing.

Djokovic seems to be playing really really well. Where Djok is going to have an advatange is he's such a great mover. I think Berdych can get stuck into his serve though unless he has a very high %. I think it is about 50/50, its very hard to call I think it will be much harder than Fed today.

[Beeston Brawler]

What do you think to Murray/Nadal?

Murray has opened up about 6/4 on Betfair, Nadal the opposite.....

[TFFP]

It feels like it could be Murray's year somehow, although we've probably said that many times. He's had the nicest draw imaginable up to now and hasn't extended himself at all. Nadal had a few injury niggles coming into the Soderling match but seemed to play well there.

I really have a hard time backing against a form Nadal against anyone but...:arran

I'll take Nadal unfortunately.

[Beeston Brawler]

I didn't see much of the match today, but it was definitely a good win for Nadal with the way Soderling has been playing.

It's probably an in play betting match.... if Nadal can push Murray back and get into a battle of groundstrokes I'd see him taking Murray quite easily.

If Murray can mix the match up and get Nadal moving around the court he can pull it off.

[TFFP]

If anything I like a Nadal/Murray epic 5 setter.

[TFFP]

Yeah no way Murray will win by lobbing them back and slicing. Nadal changes pace far more effectively than Murray, he'll just bash him to all corners of the court.

Murray has a great return game to break Nadal quite often if he gets it right, but the reverse is also true, and Murray's serving percentage can be quite shocking. He needs to push 60% to win.

Murray employed a very aggressive strategy at the US open when he beat an unfit out of form Nadal, whether he has the same balls at Wimbledon under more pressure is debateable. He does need to be aggressive and get to the net first.

[Beeston Brawler]

Yeah, he could quite easily find himself going out in straight sets if he gets his tactics wrong.

Up until the US Open I'd always felt Nadal was the one player Murray would never beat barring a miracle..... but if he employed those tactics again it would certainly make for an interesting contest.

-------------------------------

Loving the stoppage on Prizefighter..... first fight £42 up :yep

[skel1983]

If anything I like a Nadal/Murray epic 5 setter.

If it goes 5 no way Murray wins Nadal is a machine in the fifth set.

Mr Vip you not had your medication mate?? Berdych has no power wtf??? He some of the biggest shots on tour you mad man :lol:.

[skel1983]

Murray needs to win the first set if not it's over I feel.

[Beeston Brawler]

Any final thoughts on the two semi finals?

I've had a fair chunk on Uruguay to qualify tonight.... might lay a bit of that off and have a bet on the tennis, with the winnings going straight back on the football :lol:

[Mr. V.I.P.]

Laid berdych at 1.22 serving for the set and greened it at 1.55 when he choked.

[China_hand_Joe]

Holland to win.
Holland to win a half.
Holland to qualify.
Holland corners>Brazil corners.
Holland HT/FT draw/win
Holland to win by nil

[TFFP]

I can't believe how well Berdych has done since I started championing him. I should be his lucky mascot.

[Beeston Brawler]

Nadal's groundstrokes are keeping Murray where he wants him.... seems to be anticipating his movement and putting the ball in an awkward spot.

Unless Murray can improve he's going out in straight sets.

[Mr. V.I.P.]

Nadal is a different class to murray. 3-0 Why does he expect to beat nadal in a baseline rally?

[GazOC]

Anyone know how long the market for World Cup Winner is likely to be suspended for on Betfair?

[TFFP]

Yeah Murray's serving well but he's playing like a donkey in return games. Too many short, easy balls that Nadal spanks.

[China_hand_Joe]

Not a bad effort.

Not good either, just glad I weighted most the bets on Holland to win, Holland to win a half and more goals 2n half than 1st half.

The corners one was abysmal, only for value mind.




May do similar tomorrow, all value being with Germany and their shite defence.

I backed Holland outright on betfair and greened out before brazil game now there favourites ffs.

[Beeston Brawler]

Probably a while :lol:

It will have gone into meltdown three times in about an hour....

--------------------------------------------

To be fair through a lot of the match Murray wasn't that bad, his serve % in the first two sets was good, but the forehands from Nadal were just pinpoint accurate, not a lot anybody could have done in fairness.

The third set Murray started pretty well, but the serve let him down (not for the first time this week) and Nadal was all over the 2nd serve.... game over.

One thing that gets me about Murray is how shit his 2nd serve is - why not just hit the ball the same?

[TFFP]

I guess because he usually only gets his 1st serve in at 50%, the lowest of all the top players so he'd wind up serving a ton of doubles.

But when he gets raped on his second I know what you mean.

[Beeston Brawler]

That's what I mean, it's almost worth just taking the risk because any half decent returner is going to win 8/10 points off his second serve anyway.

Didn't a few go over at just over 80mph..... I thought an average woman's 2nd serve was usually higher than that :think

Uruguay are going to pump Ghana something rotten, I think I was a bit cautious with the ''qualify only'' bet.

[skel1983]

Laid berdych at 1.22 serving for the set and greened it at 1.55 when he choked.


Mate serious leaving the gambling to the people who no what there talking about. Berdych smoked Djokoivc great win and good odds..:good

[skel1983]

Berdych has the game to do Nadal haven't looked at the odds yet, it will come down to what is in between Birdmans ears, If he handles the pressure he has perfect game to over power and blast Nadal off the court, Nadal struggles against these sort of players on qucik services, Berdych has a chance if he doesnt see his arse.

[Bonavena25]

I backed a Serena and Rafa double before the tournament so hopefully they come through. Only put a fiver on it though.

[Mr. V.I.P.]

What is this the British Tennis betting thread ?

[skel1983]

You clearly dont have a clue what I wrote.

Course I do you div, you layed him then got the amazing odds of 1.55 :patsch, it was the closet post I saw of your's,hence the reply you were laughing at me for saying Berdych even had a chance haha.

Add to your infamous Mallinaggi thread like I said leave the gambling to the big boys. :good:hey

Ok clearly you still don't otherwise you would have explained it.

If you lay at a low price than what you back you have effectively a 'free bet' with no risk. Called trading buy high sell low. I have probably lost you dont worry get back to calling names while I take your money.:silly

Silly boy, mate i been gambling for best part of 12 years you div, I was repsonding to your little insight from yesterday when apparently i was stupid backing Berdych and you then added he has no power and ask me what advantage he has over Djokovic??

I went in the thread and that was your last post so I replied simple lad, you should really keep a low profile after that epic fail of a thread with your " buying money " in refrence to Khan v Paulie :lol::rofl:p:good.

Yes I can deffo see where I will be loosing money to you. :patsch

Lost me hahah you are one of the biggest mugs on here mate!!

You layed him off at 1.22 and then backed him at 1.55 woop de fucking woo after writing him off as a player with no power I would seriously quit gambling on tennis. Will work out great in the long run. :good

Oh dear your getting worse and worse and worse and worse and worse at this. I make money on a bet and I should quit? Me quitting betting will not stop you losing. You do understand if you win a bet it is good your not supposed to lose all the time. I guess your just so used to doing it your amazed I can win so often. Fall back and pay respect to me. I even left the nadal tip at 3-0 pre match for you to fall over. :tired

[Chr15B]

Dont post much as you can tell by my post count so make of this what you will... Often dip in and out of this thread for 2nd opinions on my bets but dont post for a few reasons, sure none of you care though.

Only posting now because of the above argument. Used to post on a betting forum under a different username so am probably used to different ways of doing things also but anyway...

Skel is having a go at someone for having a winning bet and implying he is an amazing gambler when his last 2 bets he posted (that i remember|) were querrey to lose in the first round at queens, this was a massive bet or top bet or something from what i remember, querrey then wins. then hewitt to beat djokovic was a mortage job who also lost... then you sound like your implying u bet on berdych yesterday but you didnt put it up before the off so thats just after timing although that seems to be ok here, though i dont get the point of it...

anyway just my 2 cents, im sure no one cares...

Some fair points there, I did loose on them two but I backed Berdych, I didn't state I had the bet on as I wasn't on the net on Friday day, but as you saw I said last night I like the value, I am quite succesful at gambling on the whole, but I am not having a go at VIP for winning that is the name of the game, It his attitude I don't like at the end of the day we all have an opinon and no one in the world of gambling can be right all the time, but if he doesn't agree with your pick he sort of ridicules you for thinking that, which for me is a joke, especailly with him. As he has made some predictions himself that have gone tits up, I just didn't like his way of telling me Berdych what has he got over Djokovic and he has no power?? Now anyone who watches tennis and says Berdych has no power don't really follow the sport, so bit tongue in cheek I was advising him to quite while he was ahead, Berdych having no power is like saying Roddick hasn't got a serve, just basically ridiculous.

If he is winning by backing and laying that is cool but I dont want to sound like a dick, I went bit over board, but they are my reasons...

[TFFP]

Berdych has wayyyyy more power than Djokovic so that was a dumb statement anyway. Djokovic is more of a retriever than an aggressor in modern tennis, solid hitter but nothing more, he only hits it a bit harder than Murray most of the time and his serve is weaker.

My main concern about him tomorrow is how well and how often he's going to move. He's got to blast Nadal and keep the points relatively short that way, there is no way I can see him running down too much and getting the better in long trades. He really has to win this in 4 sets at most, perfect serving and very powerful ground strokes with hardly any errors. Which he managed against Fed and Djok but its still a big ask so I'm favouring Nadal. Nadal doesn't have to be perfect to win, such is his comptetive spirit and mental strength, he can drag players into deep waters.

[djoc175]

David Tua rounds 1-5 came in from 6/4 to 5/6 for anybody who might be interested. kosaros posted this some weeks ago.

Like your saying Nadel is so well conditioned he just drags you into deep water and your done! I don't see him losing tomorrow he seems to focus.
