The Sports Betting thread

My Bookie game was successful for 5 straight seasons, thank you!

So is this, not Niners fault you're all so shit at it.

[Baddar]

Newcastle and Man City are shit at it. :/

[Cheeky Hughes]

I'm shit at it because I forgot to put my bet on here.

I had Martin Demichelis to score anytime too!

[Summers]

Failed here, but I did win a tenner on a Villa win.

My Liverpool-supporting friend stuck £4 on Villa to win at 10/1.

At least that was a little something to cheer him up...before he gets married tomorrow.

I had an Arsenal 2-2 City, Diego Costa hat-trick and Shergar to come back and win at St Leger, I just forget to put it on here.

I must have missed this racing news!

[Summers]

Won a tenner on Villa winning.

Decided to gamble on the UFC.

Put 10 on Tibau and Santos winning, that got me a fiver free bet, which went on Andrade and Alcantara winning - along with an extra quid.

So that went well.

Almost included on Arlovski in one of 'em, gutted I didn't. I had a feeling he'd win and his odds were great.

If Burnley had scored their penalty yesterday, would've won £26 off a £1. Had Leicester, Burnley and Everton wins. Shame.

How come I can't combine "Chelsea to win against Schalke" and "Chelsea v Schalke to have more than 2.5 goals" into one bet?

I mean I can find other bets, but I don't really see the problem with that. It doesn't contradict itself or anything.

Eh, fuck it:

Selection: Double of Chelsea to beat Schalke (1/3) and Bayern v Man City to have over 2.5 goals (13/20)

Stake: £7

Odds: 1.19/1

Returns: £15.40

He's not a supporter. You never bet on your team to lose

[Thrilla]

Why not?

[Gazz]

Cursed

Thanks to Nile Ranger's penalty miss I made £12 off £2. Why can't I turn £2 into £4?

Seeing this a bit late but I know Bet365 offer a 'Chelsea and over 2.5 goals' bet, as do a couple other bookies (Paddy Power and William Hill do, I think). Who are you using? Edited September 16, 2014 by Dynamite

Why not?

Why would you bet on your team to lose. That's not supporting your team is it.

[Colly]

In my case it is as my bets are guaranteed to lose.

It was bet365. If they offer it as a single standard thing then I guess that might be why it didn't like me trying to add them separately......I just couldn't see the single one in the listings.

[stokeriño]

Boo.

[King Ellis]

Has Niner won again?
