The Sports Betting thread

After a decent few months I knocked my account down to about 50p this weekend, but quickly built it back to a fiver on quick in play low odds bets.

Just tried to continue that tonight with the French cup, and took the unusual step of cashing out for just less than my stake after Monaco beat a 5th tier team (albeit Ludovic Giulys 5th tier team, the ground is named after him!), and I'm glad I did since Bordeaux are about to crash out to some amateurs and Lyon had to come from behind to yet more. No wonder they all want to come to Newcastle.

Ah, Lyon woke up, shame I had them for ruddy first goal. Bordeaux out.

Coral are paying 2/1 on Chelsea to beat Stoke for new customers. Max stake a tenner.

[stokeriño]

I saw that but they didn't mention the max stake in the advert. Was going to bet £50. >_>

Hmm, may put the tenner on anyway...

[Gazz]

Chelsea 0-4 Stoke

Calling it now.

I just noticed you also get a 10 pound free bet by depositing and staking 10 - so I've got that on DB at 3/1. Don't let me down, WWE!

Didn't go well.

Quick £30 off a fiver, low odds sensible winnings is clearly the way to go. Man City scared me.

Withdrew 25, left 5 in and put it on Man City, Celtic and Napoli - Only returns about £17.50 but all 3 are favourites, and the first two are leading at the moment.

Napoli go 1-0 up with less than 10 mins to go.

EDIT: Win! Took out £13 and left 5 in to do another Acca at the weekend. I'll do my best to play that one safe too. Small gains!

Found a tipster on Facebook and I've been putting some peanuts horse bets on with reasonable results, though I've just realised I've bet against Ultimate Warrior. Phew, winner.

Turned £1.89 into £112.07 over just five bets. Withdrew £100, looking to do something similar with my £12.07 now.

Today I have Rochdale, Wigan, Preston all to win, Leeds/Huddersfield, MK Dons/Tranmere, Rotherham/Orient, Oxford/Wimbledon all 3 goals and over, and Gestede to score E/W.

Doing the same myself. I've been really successful with betting lately but could see the stakes I was putting down getting higher. So I've took it all out except a tenner which I'm trying to turn into £100. Have got it up to £54 now so halfway there.

10 quid on the CDR semi's tonight, 3 goals or more. Only returns 25, but £15 profit is £15 profit.

First time using Betfair, and the first leg has come in, with Barca-Sociedad to come. Being offered £19.36 to Cash Out. Do you, don't you?

[Colly]

Just back Sociedad for a win or draw, you'll get better odds...

[Colly]

Woo, 88th minute goals for Roma and Porto net me a 6/1 win. Shame I only put a quid on.

[Baddar]

I cashed out at £16.50 in the end. Turned out to be a smart move as Barca only won 2-0.

[Colly]

Ah, I didn't see the three or more, my advice was useless as per.
