Could of layed Wigan for £150 add odds of 8.5, locking you in a definate profit of £150.

However Chelsea are winning at the moment and i'm hoping you've stuck more than £200 on Chelsea!

Hope it works out!

There's no point placing accumulators if you're going to lay them off or cover yourself in some way. You lose value (unless the odds have significantly changed in your favour).

Either fulfil it or, if you think you're going to bottle it, make a different bet in the first place.

Thanks for the advice both. Its just fun for me it adds excitement to a match and If I can win a little in the mix then thats great but I like some risk involved.

Not sure if that makes me a degenerate gambler though. Possibly.

Reckon there's value in Southampton at 6/5, Sunderland at 10/11 and Swansea at 11/10 this weekend.

Stoke/Arsenal for the draw as well at 23/10 isn't bad.

Swansea West Ham - Draw
Villa Everton - Draw
Norwich QPR - Norwich
Southampton Wigan - Southampton
Sunderland Reading - Reading

Put on £2.50, get back £602

Ridiculous, hopeless optimism is the only way to go I find

Anyone with a Paddy Power account, but who hasn't made a "text bet", you can get a free £10 bet on the first goalscorer today. Text "getin" and player's surname to 51465.

Did a Stoke/Arsenal draw and City double. I'd be happy to lose the bet

I'm thinking about betting a 100 on Barcelona winning the CL. The payout is 380. Seems like value.

Last Europa fixtures had a nice Acca come through though it was almost undone by Maritimo (64th minute winner vs Dila Gori). Dila Gori are 4.8 to win, stuck a tenner on them since the tie seems finely balanced and how well they played Maritimo last time.

Liverpool-Arsenal always seems to be a goalfest. Sticking to livebetting on corners though, have had success with that recently.

Belgium's an interesting one. They've had quality players for a while now but not the results or goals to match. I'd say it's a case of more people recognising the quality now rather than the team quality actually improving, so they're probably about the right price, if a little too short now @ 1.85.

Then again, Belgium have the advantage of several PL players, meaning a match in Wales may not have the same away disadvantage as most internationals. For me:

Mirallas anytime @ 3.6 (13/5)
Ramsey anytime @ 8 (7/1) [penalty taker?]

Nice win today from £25



Did have Italy to draw in that too at one point, not sure if it finished as a draw though, so not gonna beat myself up too much. International breaks always a fave for easy money. Now to lose it all on club football.
