Football Betting Blog update

It’s been a few weeks since any bets have been posted, so i’ll just update on the last bets first.

Liverpool went and lost 3-1 at Reading, so the Liverpool win bet was blown out, luckily the over 2.5 goals bet covered that and a £14 profit was had on that game.

Osasuna v Valencia finished 0-0 so a loss of £120

Ath Bilbao v Real Madrid finished 0-1 so a profit of £50 on that game.

There will be a few games to bet on boxing day and over the weekend so I will post a few bets on boxing day morning.

Have a great Christmas

Reading v Liverpool

admin — Sat, 08 Dec 2007 16:48:00 +0000

The midweek correct score in the AC Milan v Celtic game came up trumps, a profit of £230, which handsomely covered the £100 loss on Saints overs, typically saints easily got overs today!

So onto todays bet, Reading v Liverpool, Liverpool starting with an atttacking lineup of Voronin, Crouch and Torres, Jack Hobbs taking Hypia’s place at the back, so the bets:

Over 2.5 goals, £100 at odds of 2.14
Liverpool to win £100 at odds of 1.59

also, some La Liga games tonight so will have some draw lay bets on

Osasuna v Valencia, draw lay £50 at odds of 3.4
Ath Bilbao v Real Madrid, draw lay att odds of 3.5

Damn you Oxford

Well done to Oxford for throwing away a 3-0 lead at half time, Torquay managed to claw back to earn a 3-3 draw, which means i’m £130 down now.

International Games this weekend so i’ll take a look at those soon!

QPR v Norwich

admin — Mon, 08 Oct 2007 13:19:00 +0000

Just the one game this evening QPR v Norwich, these games are normally full of goals so I will be laying the draw and backing over 2.5 goals.

Draw lay, £50 at odds of 3.65 (liability of £132.50)

backing over 2.5 goals, £50 at odds of 2.04 to win £52

Still making profit

admin — Sun, 07 Oct 2007 15:59:00 +0000

Well the Arsenal result came in but not the Reading overs so they offset each other, Chelsea won so that adds another £273 to the profit which now stands at £423.

So far from 8 wins from 11 bets a strike rate of 73%

Next bet:

Santander vs Valladolid draw lay, £50 at odds of 3.5 (liability of £125)

The good and the bad

admin — Thu, 27 Sep 2007 21:49:00 +0000

Well Sunday was quite possibly the worst day ever, a loss of £220.75, I had the distraught feeling for the rest of the day and swore to stay away from Betfair for a few months, but the odds on Chelsea v Hull were too good not to take, 1.57 to win, and they obliged.

I managed to lay 5 draws in games that finished draws with late equalizers or no goals, unbelievable!

So since yesterday I’ve clawed back £194.46, it would have been a lot more if I had traded more on the 0-0 in Madrid v Betis game tonight, but other than that i’m happy again and in profit, £2.36, but it’s profit!

It’s not going too well

admin — Sat, 25 Aug 2007 08:47:00 +0000

I haven’t been able to update this due to being so busy and will be going on holiday in a week for 2 weeks, but it’s not been pretty, about £200 down, too many 0-0’s going on! It’s always good bet to not bet until a few games into the season I think.

Well today’s bets start with:

Kilmarnock v Rangers
Correct score 1-3 at odds of 16.50 for £3.00

Sunderland v Liverpool
draw lay odds of 3.85 for £30
Correct score 0-0 at odds of 11.50 for £5.00
Correct score 0-3 at odds of 15.50 for £5.00

Ahhh Sunday afternoon football

admin — Sun, 12 Aug 2007 17:10:00 +0000

What a day, Arsenal leave it late against Fulham to win 2-1, Chelsea beat Birmingham 3-2 and Man United only managed a 0-0 at home to Reading.

Todays bets were:

lay Over 2.5 goals at odds of 1.12 – profit of £7.27

Correct score 3-3 at odds of 270.00 for £2.00
