    Taking Baz's team over Boydy's there.

    EW to 10th is a double edged sword because it absolutely slashes the prices. Absurd overround of like 150% on the market.

    Bored between watching rugby and going to bed so I've put two 20-selection accumulators on, £1 each.

    They're mostly a mix of over 1.5, 2.5 and 3.5 goals with a few handicaps thrown in for good measure.

    One pays £976.27 and the other £3,606.35.

    Brechin City vs St. Mirren -2 @1.8
    Brechin havent won a league game in the scottish championship all season.

    Hamburger SV vs Schalke 04 @1,8
    Hamburger are rock button without a win the last 15 league games. Schalke are second with 5 wins in a row.

    Edit: two hard loses this week. Other bets havent made up for loses. Down about £50 so far this weekend.

    What was he, 30/1? Great effort. I made about £130 off £40 stakes which is a lot better than I normally do. Roll on the US Open at Shinnecock.

    40/1 on Sky bet.

    All in I bet about £20 and won £104 so not bad. Withdrawn £100 to make up for recent losses, including Cheltenham, and got £4 to go again.

    Claude Puel next manager to leave at 66/1 is worth a couple quid.

    Form is bad and the extremely strong dressing room has already started briefing the press about how shit he is. Owners always will side with players and aren’t afraid to pull trigger mid season.

    Aintree festival is upon us! I received three tips yesterday and they all came in. They all won too, nevermind placed.
    Finian's Oscar 5-2
    L'Ami Serge 5-1
    Bentelimar 10-1
    Needless to say, I didn’t back them. The treble would have been 230/1 too. Hopefully I’ll get some more tips today and stick £12 on a Trixie.

    Some bloke in Betfred yesterday asked the difference between win and each way. Good ol’ Grand National.

    I’ve chosen so many horses, including Milansbar and those two French sounding ones above but it was getting out of hand so I’ve just gone for Raz De Maree and Bless The Wings mostly because of the jockeys.

    I’m going to be repeating my tried and tested method of picking the horses with the names I like (and the ones my wife does) and then sticking a quid on the one with the longest odds.

    Absolutely the only way to pick horses for the national. Stuck a tenner on Gas Line Boy @ 26 and I Just Know @ 19 for that very reason.

    Also got £10 on:

    Boro
    Swansea/Everton BTS
    QPR vs Preston BTS
    Bristol Rovers vs Blackburn BTS
    Charlton vs Scunthorpe BTS

    at around 19.

    Alpha des obeaux e/w 40/1
    Vieux Lion Rouge e/w 33/1
    Houblon des obeaux e/w 33/1
    Lord Windermere e/w 66/1
    Pendra e/w 80/1


    Anything under 25/1 is a scam. If I've picked the winner in the National I want to be bloody well rewarded for it.

    Tiger Roll was my workplace sweepstake one. Unfortunately, it's for restaurant vouchers rather than actual money.

    Also had £2 each way on Warriors Tale which doesn't seem to have been settled yet for some reason but it hasn't won anything.

    Sweepstake at work was useless though.

    Jesse Varvas @1.75 vs Adrien Broner - Is too goos to be true. Broner isn't worth picking in any somewhat 50/50 fight. I don't see broner winning at all.

    After reviewing this seasons football betting, I'm £423 in profit. Considering I bet every weekend, its pathetic. If I didn't come across Brechin the past month, I would have been negative £66

    They didn't record a win all season.

    If you're a recreational gambler, I think any figure above zero is a job well done.

    Yes. I'm not going to be able to watch 70 odd games of football without wanting to have money involved. I'm not sure how much time I'll have to do prep work on it, or really how I will approach it, so whether it is profitable or not remains to be seen.

    I broke even on Euro 2016 iirc. Would have been a good tournament if I hadn't bet the farm on Ukraine being good, which they were very much not.

    I'm never going to top backing Costa Rica to top the group last time out. One of those where in hindsight you regret the pathetic stake.

    I probably know less about the teams this time than at any time since 1998, so it should be like childhood wonder again.
