    A couple of big priced bets for a bit fun watching tonight's games using some free bets.

    It's all about Salah in the early game (he's let me down a few times this season) so he owes me :D





    If the curse of the early game strikes again the 3pm games might come to the rescue.

    Think you're safe with Salah.

    The worry is Nunez. Right now, he couldn't hit a cow's ar5e with a banjo :)

    Bit of a reverse chirp here, but I've had a wonderful run spread betting Multi Corners & am wayyyyy up. (Multi-corners is 1st half corners multiplied by 2nd half corners, & I usually bet £2 per corner).

    In last night's Burnley game I sold at 26. There were 10 in the first half, 12 in the second, = 10 x 12 = 120. I usually trade out if the early corner count is high but it got away from me last night with 3 in the first few minutes. I should have been brave & accepted the loss but I ran with it & it just got worse & worse. In theory I lost 94 units (94 x £2) but I have a default stop loss of 75, so the end loss was "only" £150. Yikes. It was incred, Burnley sent in about 30 crosses & most of them seemed to deflect off a defender for a corner.

    Bizarrely, the previous night in the Liverpool v Spurs game I had the same bet & there were 10 first half corners, so I was facing a bad one. The second half was much better, & with no corners for the next half hour, once my liability was down to -£10 I accepted the small loss & closed the position with a big sigh of relief. In fact there was only 1 2nd half corner, and had I let it run I'd have made a profit of 16 units @ £2 a pop, = £32. Marv.

    Gotta love a punt, & if we are correctly rolled it's a wonderful buzz, there's good nights & bad nights but as long as you take a long-term balanced view it's all good. When I take a hit it hurts for about 5 minutes, but a good win sends me to bed buzzing.

    Nunez not starting so cashed out the £10 on that bet so it's all on Salah now but he ain't been in great form lately,need a Liverpool penalty :D .

    @lucy4


    Salah seems to be playing much wider today. Fingers crossed for you though.

    Salah & Kane used to be 'Bankers' in this type of bet but recently they both seem to be playing wider or deeper and supplying rather than being the main strikers.

    My 20 team pin stickers 10p acca bet no studying of form just random picks to tick off the goals as and when they go in, I've had one up before and been close a few times (17/18 & 19 games) not a bad bet for 10p. Super Boosted odds from 550/1 to 726/1.

    Not a very good day today as Salah didn't have his shooting boots on yet again (note to self no more backing Salah for S.O.T.) Also Watford one of my regular bet busters let the 'Banker' down again. The Pin Sticker Acca gave most entertainment 3 games were late abandonments leaving 17 games in the acca of which 4 lost but onwards and upwards.





    Oh I forgot I had a free £2 bet ongoing so not all bad (so far).

    Perhaps I should stick to the euro games in future.

    Instead of doing a multi-leg bet builder I've just gone for this Sky Bet Boost. It should give a decent run for the money as long as Saka lasts the whole game without being injured through the countless fouls that are gonna be committed on him.

    FYP :)

    Lazio vs AC Milan looks good for cards.
    📈 Referee averages 5.40.
    📈 Milan games average 6 cards.
    📈 Lazio games average 4.78 cards.
    📈 7 cards in the last meeting.

    Half time and 2 of the picks have been carded but unfortunately it's 1 card on each bet no double up yet.
  • lucy4lucy4 Member Posts: 7,933
    Only 3 cards in the game and I had 2 of those but not on the same slip but I did do a partial cash out for my stakes back before one of the picks got subbed off so no winners but also no losses.

    Hi Lucy, If you're looking for a bet to make tonights match more fun, there's a sky bet club boost of:
    Brennan Johnson and Marcus Rashford to have 4+ shots on target between them was 4/1 NOW 6/1
    I like the fact that it's combined shots- gives a bit more flexibility.
    Might be a decent use of a free bet :)

    Thanks @poppy765 I always seem to forget to look at the sky bet club for offers.

    No probs :)
    4 SoT is a bit ambitious but they're both pretty accurate with shots and decent penalty takers so fingers crossed!
  • lucy4lucy4 Member Posts: 7,933
    I'm waiting on the confirmed line ups before placing any bets but this seem worth a shout if all players start.
