I've had an unreal few days! 2.6K up  !

I was £40 down off Cheltenham on Tuesday but I had Sergio and Ronny singles and double on the night, had the last four winners on Wednesday - two in a double and one in a treble but backed Salah on the 365 offer and had a single on Suarez and them in a double so was flat on the football until I looked at the horses on Skybet for the 1.30 and Liverpool got a corner - Skybet are slow at changing their prices for in play scorers so quickly went on the match in play and just managed to get £5 on VVD next scorer 50/1 (9.26pm!) and he literally scored three seconds later! I had a few winners yesterday and then had doubles and trebles on Milik (6/1 enhanced!), Giroud and PEA! Absolutely mental few days! I'll be dishing out a few Jagers this weekend!

Ha ha! I'm clueless with horses so I'm not tipping any of those mad creatures!

[Froggy]

No such thing as horse tips.

Won 80 quid with my risk-free Sky Bet yesterday.  Less lucky today, my horse is literally now dead.

loads of people raging about this on twitter Aye you lost £2 but the horse had to be put down ffs

[Fugazi]

How did he still race when his shoe fell off? I know nowt about horses but surely that's not a good sign

They put it back on, the start was delayed a bit while they did it.  They were saying it wasn't a big deal and wouldn't have affected the horse at all

[gdm]

Thank you so much Matt Ritchie

Had £5 on Newcastle, Hull, Sheff Wed and Leicester to score 2+ goals £150 back

[Optimistic Nut]

The SkyBet Boost came up trumps again.

Vardy let me down for over £150. Had £5 on Rondon, Vardy, Chicarito & Grigg anytime scorers.

[gdm]

£12 on Rashford & Jota 5+ shots on target between them @ 8/1. Two weekends in a row Rashford gets it in injury time

[Wullie]

Rashford, you little f***ing beauty, never have any luck with these things.

[Optimistic Nut]

That Joe Bryan yellow just sees me over into the Chelsea game in my double. Had Liverpool to win, 4+ Liverpool corners & 2+ Fulham yellows, plus over 1.5 goals, 8+ corners & 3+ yellows as a double.

same, even on f***ing 'safer' ones like this (9/1)

1 twatting corner.

Trying a strategy I just found out about. Start with £10, then bet on something around 1.10 in odds that already looks certain (live bets). Take the £10 + winnings and place that on another 1.10 bet, continue until rich. Already at £47 after being at it for five hours

[Kaizero]

£62 now

[Tisd09]

I did something similar starting at £5 not in play though, got up to just over £20 and then one loss tucked me up, couldn't be bothered again

I'll have a look at the in play option though.

Been around since the beginning of time and doesn't work. You're going to get a bad result sooner or later and it's all gone. Remember the student who stuck £4000 on Angola when they were 4-0 up? Ended up drawing 4-4.

Aye it’s a good idea in theory but it rarely works to any great success

First example that came to my mind Every day there are plenty of 1/10 shots get beat during in play betting.

[Kaizero]

It's a 1/10000 shot at making £100,000. There are no games with better odds than that for that amount.

[Kaizero]

I'm at £211 now fwiw

[Kaizero]

And obviously, any bet is still a bet. But the chances of having 50 bets go in in a row is much higher with 1.10-ish odds than if you went for pre-match 2.25's and so on At some point you'll lose, you just need to know when you're starting to feel too uncomfortable betting the money. In my head, I'll try to justify all the high stake bets as "it's only actually £10 that you would lose".

[Froggy]

Why not just do an accy full of 1/10 shots? Quicker.
