You were lucky Thurnscoe they only looked like scoring when we had 9 men but bets in and that's a decent result


RE: The gambling/betting thread - Thurnscoe_OWL - 27-09-2015

Lobbed a £10 on Dortmund @1/9 been losing most of the game but turned it round give you a tip lower non league games are fairly easy to win on if you watch the form

European Open

Disappointing with just a shared place on Karlberg. Could have been so much more with Karlberg dropping four shots in his final four holes on Friday. When I described the likely winner as a top putter a a good GIR man, I was describing the eventual winner, Thongchai Jaidee, a player I have done well with over many years. Sadly I overlooked him here & we move on.

Max Kieffer 33/1 (General) -4 T48

David Howell 40/1 (General) -2 Missed Cut

Fabrizio Zanotti 40/1 (General) -4 T48

Rikard Karlberg 50/1 (Paddy Power) -12 T5 PLACE

Alejandro Canizares 55/1 (General) -8 T24

Got a place in each, Karlberg & Watson.

Alfred Dunhill Links Championship

This is an interesting championship because it is played across three courses, St Andrews, Carnoustie & Kingsbarns with all players playing one round on each course before a cut on the Saturday and one final round at St Andrews.

The field is stronger than normal with Martin Kaymer heading the betting at 16/1 with appearances from Brandon Grace, Brookes Koepka & Charl Schwartzel and others.

Broadly, we should be looking at links course specialists but this event can throw up a shock winner.

Martin Kaymer 16/1

A justifiable favourite. He is in form and won this event in 2010. It's not so much that I am right behind him but I don't want to be against him.

Danny Willett 25/1

He is in decent form with a 3rd place at the Italian Open and knows his way around here with a 2nd in 2010 & a 5th in 2012.

Shane Lowry 25/1

Here is a links course specialist and a man in form, winning the Bridgestone Invitational last month. He has finished 3rd & 6th in the last two years so should go close.

Thomas Pieters 45/1

No doubt about his form as he has won his last two events despite carrying my money. He finished a respectable 18th last year and is much improved this season. Has no great links pedegree but I cannot desert the hottest player on the European Tour.

David Howell 66/1

Decent form with three seconds and a third this season. His record in this tournament is as good as anybody's with five top ten finishes including a win in 2013.

David Lingmerth 80/1

Think he is at a generous price and may be off the bookies radar as he plays mainly on the PGA Tour.

Oliver Wilson 500/1

There is only one reason for this bet. We are being offered 500/1 for the player that won this event last year. He was also second in 2009 but his form this season has been terrible but he might just lift himself like last year.

One Outstanding Bet for tonight plus a decent bet.

Accrington v Yeovil

We have profited from the last two Accrington home matches by backing low corners and we should profit again here by following the same line. None of Accrington's last eight home matches has reached nine corners while all of Yeovil's last six away matches have failed to reach Bet 365's line of 10.5 corners. This looks like an excellent bet on low corners & if it were later in the season, I would be betting massive. As it's September, I will bet less but still a fair amount.

Bet on Under 10.5 Corners at 1.825

Crewe v Southend

Not as big a bet here but still a bet on high corners. Crewe's home matches this season have had 13-16-9-17 corners while Southend's away matches have had 11-16-12-13 corners. Bet365 have set their line at 11 Corners which makes "Overs" a bet here.

Bet on Over 11 Corners (DNB) at 1.90.

Good Luck!
