    I wanted Guido but no dice from the computer. He's got to start winning pretty much now if he wants into the RC.

    A couple of games into the SEA Games, we are now approaching the time where the likes of Laos, Myanmar and Timor Leste start throwing games. Timor actually won yesterday, so we may have to wait a game of two for them to start accepting some brown envelopes.

    Philippines have shocked everyone by losing all games and being knocked out already, however, traditionally they don't get involved with shenanigans, which is a shame.

    What's the argument against backing Ukraine at 8/1 for Eurovision? I'm still seeing Ukraine flags everywhere.

    I think the argument is Sweden are going to win/you don't get the sympathy vote two years in a row.

    I quite liked Poland's song yesterday, make them dark horses [I have no idea about the odds]. Slovenia as well.

    It's not about sympathy, it's about self-righteousness. If the judges have them anywhere near the top ( @-james- ) they're worth the punt I reckon.

    Yeah, but it took a historic public vote to skewer the results last year, I don't think they'll get that again [to the same level], particularly not if one of the more traditional favoured/non-hated countries is in the running [ie Sweden and not the UK].

    Looking into it, they came 4th with the jury last year. I remember their song being shit so they must have had plenty sympathy from the judges.

    Their song is pretty flat this year but it could come to life in the final if the bloke learns to sing. It also finishes well and is towards the end in the running order (whilst Sweden are 9th).

    I'm gonna go for it. 365 have boosted the odds too. I've also seen some people tip Italy, which might be worth an e/w at 33/1.

    Good bet. I've backed them and Sweden in this market. Finland are way too short everywhere.

    Sweden have won imo. The current price of 1.5 is still value (advised in this thread at 2.1 a month ago btw ). Should be a landslide.

    Of course there could be 400 hidden televote points for Ukraine but it's a lot less likely than last year.

    I had a ‘to score in 90 mins’ treble yesterday on Mitrovic, Rashford and Wilson. Rashford didn’t play, so it won as a double.

    Done one today on Haaland, Toney and Mac Allister @ 13/1

    Also KDB to assist Haaland 7/1

    Mitoma is @ 2.37 to have 2 or more shots on Bet365.

    On Betfair he's at 1.25.



    Has hit 2 or more in 7 of his last 8 matches when starting.

    I'm also on 3 or more shots at 5.5 on Bet365.

    The amount of times Mitoma has chosen to cut it back to someone or take an extra couple of touches instead of shooting is infuriating.

    PGA Championship

    Scheffler 15/2
    Schauffele 16/1
    Finau 22/1
    Fowler 66/1
    McCarthy 175/1

    An all-yank lineup. Hopefully jinxes the actual result. I am sorry, lord Jon my God, for I have forsaken you.

    175/1 price gives me horrible flashbacks to Mito last year. FFS Mito.

    Nice one. That's decent. Just want to see what the other 25p bets were.

    As long as you're up, that's the main thing

    I had another 11 25p pre-match bets (3 or 4 of which were let down by 1 player) and I put two 25p singles in play which lost.

    Looked into a loan for some home improvements and apparently a lot of them want to see your bank accounts now and will reject you if they dont like the level of gambling they see. One to be aware of for the big players in here.

    If you ain't putting all betting transactions through Paypal, fix up. They even give a few days of free credit so you can do your balls beyond your overdraft limit when the going gets tasty

    Need to plan ahead, deposit one big lump sum and then maintain self control not to spaff it all on some Vietninfo.

    I presume they don't get funny if its lots of moneys going in, from bookies?

    Lol I used to abuse this and I think it's why PayPal no longer accept my custom. Nothing like knowing that the imaginary £200 in your bet365 needs to not be £400 and not £0 by Monday.

    They will do. Their policies for gambling won't include exceptions around filtering out 'the good ones' because it's not worth their time and anybody smart enough to make profit is smart enough to have three months of clean statements.
