RE: The gambling/betting thread - madsteve - 19-09-2015

Quite a few possibles this weekend but as it is early in the season, I am still betting small.

Huddersfield v Bolton - Under 2.5 Goals at 1.95

All three of Town's home matches this season have failed to reach 2.5 goals as have 6 out of 7 of their matches this season. Bolton have failed to score in any of their three away matches this season with 5 of their 7 matches failing to reach 2.5 goals.

Sheff Wed v Fulham - Under 10.5 Corners at 1.875

Fulham's last six away matches have all failed to reach 10.5 corners while 8 of Wednesday's last ten home matches have fallen short of this line.

Colchester v Gillingham - Both Teams To Score at 8/11

Both Teams have Scored in all of the Gills' last 7 away matches and in 5 of the U's last 7 home matches.

Doncaster v Oldham - Under 2.5 Goals at 4/5

All three of Rovers' home matches have failed to reach 2.5 goals while all of Oldham's last 8 away matches have dropped short of this line.

Peterboro v Walsall - Under 10.5 Corners at 1.80

12 of Peterboro's last 14 home matches have failed to reach 10.5 corners while all of Walsall's three away matches this season have failed to reach this line.

Rochdale v Scunthorpe - Under 10.5 Corners at 1.975

Six of Dale's last 7 home matches have failed to reach 10.5 corners while all three of Scunthorpe's away matches have fallen short of this line.

Bradford v Sheff Utd - Under 10.5 Corners at 1.825

All of City's last 11 home matches have failed to reach 10.5 corners while 11 of United's last 15 on the road have dropped short of this line.

Wimbledon v Notts County - Over 10.5 Corners at 1.825

All three of the Dons' home matches have gone over 10.5 corners comfortably (16-13-18) while two of County's away matches have done likewise (23-15).

Accrington v Exeter - Under 10.5 Corners at 1.925

All of Stanley's last seven home matches have failed to top 10.5 corners. In fact they have all failed to reach 8.5 corners. Four of Exeter's last six away matches have failed to beat this line with three of them failing to reach 7.5 corners.

If it was January, I would be piling on the Accrington v Exeter match but for now, it will be relatively small.

Correct Score Bets:

Man City v West Ham 1-0 2-0
Newcastle v Watford 0-1 1-1
Huddersfield v Bolton 0-0 1-0
Blackpool v Barnsley 1-2 1-3
Doncaster v Oldham 1-0 1-1
Spurs v Watford 1-2

I had four times as much money on Accrington as the other bets so increased my profits.

Don't give up on the golf. Fitzpatrick is on a charge & is currently Tied 3rd, two off the lead.


RE: The gambling/betting thread - madsteve - 20-09-2015

Fitzpatrick & Willett both in an eight way tie for the lead & leading in the clubhouse.

Five players out on the course who could take it though.


RE: The gambling/betting thread - Owlkev71 - 20-09-2015

The Italian Open is going to have a crazy finish, theres 7 players tied for first!!!!!!!!!!

Just a few holes remaining.
