Title: Weekend Bets
Post by: yeo on Friday, August 17, 2007, 18:55:16
Time for me to get back into a bit of low stakes football betting again.I found it a bit hard to pick much today so these are pretty random.I normally do better when I put no thought into it so who knows....

I really can't see Spurs beating Derby today. The rest seem a fair bet to me. The Spurs one is the black sheep :?

very hard to choose!

i've gone with darlington, Franchise and p'boro to win. at 15-1 it doesn't pay much, but it should pay, and that's the most important thing.

I actually feel like a cunt for betting against town but I think it's a fair bet. If we win then my happiness will overcome the loss of money. Rendering all bets irrelevant.

How many bets do you have to make and how much do you have to put on to get a decent return, of ie.100 quid plus?

Most bookies have a slip with groups of matches, they then form 8 grids, you need to make one selection in each grid and they must all we right (home, away or draw - your choice), minimum return for £1 = £100, its a bit of fun, but near enough mission impossible, but you never know. :wink:

so you gotta basically predict win lose or draw in 8 games?

what if I just did 3-5 matches randomly for w/l/d would the returns be crap?

depends on the odds of the teams you pick.  Best advice would be to sign up to an internet bookies and have a play with it. All of them do introductrory offers, free bets etc
