Had a free bet on both teams to score a penalty at 67/1 . Spent the last 30 minutes hoping Chelsea could do something but they were useless

I fluctuate a lot to be fair. Been using MoPlay recently, not found them too bad. Also been using Stakers recently too, they're not too bad either.
Unsure if you're still using them but got 5k robbed by Stakers this weekend annoyingly. They changed the odds on a few of my winning bets from 6/1 to 4/5 after the bets had won. The bets weren't incorrect odds either. Would definitely avoid.

No haven’t for a while tbh. Don’t think I’ve used them since I said that. Definitely won’t now though!

Is that allowed, can you not appeal stuff like this to an independent adjudicator?

Nah it's not allowed in the UK, unless the odds are clearly wrong and not in like with the market. Yeah I'll go through IBAS and I'll get paid in a few months. Basically, stuff like this happens everywhere bar the UK thankfully, a lot of sites use Curacao licenses so they literally do what they want. They'll get a decent fine, a couple of cases like this and you can lose your IBAS and UK license. They'll do stuff like this to Non UK customers all the time.

I'm debating whether or not to put £10 on us winning the league this season...

What are the odds?
fecking remote, that's what the odds are...

We'd need City, Liverpool and Spurs to completely implode, and we'd need to also win every game in the league...

United are @ 24 to win the next three games if anyone is feeling confident :wenger:
I'm on it with a £5 bet at 21.38/1, in for a penny and all that...if we can't be confident now, when can we be...

Also, got £25 free bet offer from Bet365 for tomorrow. United to win at 11/8 as my qualifying bet, toying with a final score bet as my free one, but not sure which to go for yet. 2-1 or 3-1...or I might just go a bit safer on BTTS First half yes at 3/1.

200/1 for United to win the league is absolute daylight robbery if true. :lol:

You almost reach that price for them winning their next six league games alone. According to my rough calculations winning all remaining league games is around 10000/1. Now factor in all the other things that need to happen and you get true odds of somewhere in the billions!

United would need to win all remaining games
City would need to lose 4 games
Liverpool would need to lose 5 games
Spurs would need to lose 3 games

that's a lot of games for those 3 to lose in 11/12 games.

It happened in the season Leicester won the league, I'm secretly hoping for a similar finish from all of them.

It would be great, I'd happily lose the £2,010 I'd win for it to happen...

If I bet on it, with my track record, we'd fecking lose them all...

No, not really looked into it. I hate cashing out but then when i see the number, I just always think why risk it for £100 or so. I know it's going to kill me in the long run but I do it anyway.
I did a little test on it yesterday, although not at your bookie of preference i guess. I placed and accumulator yesterday, 1,87 x 1,12. After the 1,87 bet is good, they are now offering me 746 Nok on my bet. So my bet should be worth up to 935 now(1,87x500), giving them a margin of over 20%!

I dont know if your bookie is this bad, but I'll put 50€ on you getting mugged doing it this way. Anyway, really appreciate your tips, hope you find your feet on the NHL ;-)

Now went 20€ on Pinarault @3,5 in the Mens Alpine Combination. He is the best slalom racer now that Hirscher isn't in it. Speaking of Hirscher, I'll back him for the slalom and giant slalom later this week, he has been outstanding and won almost every race in the WC. I also like Kristoffersen for the podium, he is the only one with the capacity to beat Hirscher, but has struggled so far this season. If there is info on his form improving he is a great bet at the current prices(podium).

Got my win on Pinturault, never close as conditions favoured slalom specialists, and won comfortably by around ,5 sec and a tidy 50€ profit.

Made some more bets for the World championship in Are later this week:
Giant slalom (M):
100€ Hirscher to win @ 1,46 - He is 1-1-1-6-1 in the world cup this season
50€ Kristoffersen top 3 @ 2,61 - is 3-2-14-8-2 in the world cup this season without being in top form
10€ Kristoffersen win @ 12 - He's the likely winner if Hirscher doesn't win.

Slalom (M)
50€ Hirscher to win @ 1,75 - He is 1-1-26-1-1-3-2-1 in the world cup this season
20€ Kristoffersen top 3 @ 4 - He is 2-3-0-5-3-4-4-0 in the world cup this season without being in top form
10€ Kristoffersen win @ 15 - He's the likely winner if Hirscher doesn't win.
A little worried about Noel Clement here, he finished 2-1-1-0 in the last 4 world cup races.

Anyway, these prices should be good if nothing out of the ordinary happens before start, so I chose to place the bets now.

Might also have a punt on the toon keeping it tight tonight, Wolves been better against top teams, Jota uncertain and Toon in good form.

Saw Newcastle getting a result tonight so avoided the game like the plague. Wolves just don’t seem to cut it in games like this.

Yeah had 15€ on u2,5 and draw @4,05, so late goal was welcome, even though I had 5€ each on 1-0 both ways as hedge. Good day so far, but the NHL should fix that, but will dry to change the way I pick NHL games.
I like the Flyers, form beats class, and will go with them +,5 @ after checking lineups. Hart been amazing in goal for a while now.
The Kings have overperformed, I think(hope?), and like Capitols -1,5 @ 2,5, although I might been chasing them (C's) and am sceptical of myself on this one.
San Jose are 12 from last 15, and 10-0-1 against Canucks, so I gotta back that to continue, 1,63 on the ML.
I am gonna stay away from betting on favourites in regulation for a while, those bets seems to come back and bite me in the @SS......

Anyone know anything about Real Potosi in Bolivia? 1-1 at half time, the away sides away record looks terrible.

They should win, Potosi play at 4000m altitude but they are the worst team in the league ability wise, just get the job done at home. Destroyers are probably the worst Sea level side in the league at altitude, liked Draw No bet from 1-0 but was just staking as they got the pen.

Small bet in play over 1.25 in America De Quito v Mushuc Runa. Both sides top heavy in terms of new signings, lot of goals in both sides and game been quite open, I'm on over 2 from earlier in the game as well.

For future reference Real Potosi are one of my favourite teams to follow for a goal post 75 minutes. That's match goals not team goals. The amount of late goals and late red cards in their matches is incredible. Price is usually around 1.8.

2/1 Utd, 11/8 Liverpool for the game at Old Trafford this weekend? I was expecting us to be marginal favs after the last couple of months.
