Marseille v Athletic Bilbao
Dortmund v Red Bull Salzburg
AC Milan v Arsenal
Atletico Madrid v Lokomotiv
CSKA Moscow v Lyon draw

42/1
 
Blindly placed a bet on RBL v Zenit to go over 2.5 goals. Seems unlikely to happen now after seeing Zenit's away record in all competitions this season (only 5 out of 18 games went over 2.5 goals)
 
Won this one 5-2.

On Milan to beat Arsenal tonight and going to parlay it with Atletico @2.45

I got it totally wrong with Milan! Got loads of hockey bets, Florida to win in regulation is probably best @1.85
 
Gone for over 2.5 goals for Girona v Deportivo - can't see Girona keeping 6 clean sheets in a row at home, even though Deportivo are hopeless in their away games this season. Might go for Draw or Deportivo as well (purely based on the law of averages :lol:)

You're better off doing first goal scorer - Stuani or Portu. They always score especially at home but good luck with your bet
 
going for goals in China this monring. BTTS and over 3.5 . Gangzhou's game last weeek was crazy, an dchina is always good for goals. (*Here comes a nil nil).
 
For anyone interested in Cheltenham Coral have a nice 50/1 offer on Buveur D'air for the Champion Hurdle. It's for new customers only so guess that rules most of us out. Your mum might be interested though ;)

Had a tenner on a Goulart hatrick at 10/1. 2 goals and 2 assists :lol:
 
I won 250 PLN on live basketball today, over/under in Asian leagues (I love overs there!) so I stuck all of it plus the stake, total of 400 PLN, on NBA tonight:

Jazz
Pacers -4.5
Pistons -4.5
Trail Blazers +6.5
Magic +11.5
Raptors +7.5
Nuggets
Bucks -5.5

Bucks, Pacers, Jazz and Pistons are playing tanking teams. Blazers are in amazing form and Warriors are without Curry plus they are on back to back. Nuggets have been great at home. Magic should not lose by 11 fecking points to Sacramento at all, they are both equally bad. Rockets could win in Toronto but I doubt it will be by this many points.

I can win 5000 PLN on it. Would be amazing.

6/8 already done, I am left with Trail Blazers who are leading by 9 at the half and should cover the spread comfortably and Magic who are now down by 10 so it's going down to the wire... How hard is it to not lose by more than 11 to the Kings?

Wow, you got this bro!
 
Wow, I actually won 5k!

Magic game almost gave me a heart attack but all is well what ends well.
 
Nah I stay up pretty late and watch the east coast games. Blue Jackets in regulation tonight @1.75

Another winner 3-2 Columbus.

On to the footie today. Liverpool are favorites at OT :eek:, probably the first time in my life time that's ever happened.

Quite a sizeable one as well. If we take out the home field advantage (which accounts for roughly 0.35 goals), the market rates Liverpool the better side by about 0.5 goals which is huge considering they are behind United in the table. Now I've been saying for a long time that United are worse than their league position suggests and have been betting against them on the handicap lines but even I'm surprised by that. I was big on Spurs some weeks ago when they beat United and were priced at ~2.40 to win. This suggests that United were rated the better side by about 0.2 goals (again eliminating HFA). Put those two games together and we arrive at Liverpool being a 0.7 goals better team than Spurs. This is nonsense obviously and the odds in the Spurs were just wrong but it is still a remarkable market shift. Almost tempted to bet something on United today.
 
Casual gambler here, jumped on this one. You’ve given me a few great bets over the last six months or so. So thanks Sarni!

Played your game and won with you bro.

Gracias

Thanks guys!

It was my biggest one off win ever. Feels great today even though I only got 3 hours of sleep.

Pacers and Raptors were very comfortable to start the night, I started watching Pistons in third quarter when they were ahead by just 2 but they played the second half very well so it wasn't close either.

Jazz won comfortably too but Bucks was already a nerve-wracking game, they were up by 14 only to be just 2 ahead starting final quarter but Giannis and Middleton gave them separation. Was quite comfortable in the end. I turned on Nuggets then and they were down by 3 but had a great finish and really turned it on in defence. Very exciting game.

To finish the night I turned on Kings v Magic on one screen and Portland v GS on the other. My Blazers were great and it wasn't close but my dear, did Magic give me some scare. They were consistently between 8-15 points down and towards the end when they were 11 down they gave Kings some chances to score which they didn't take, and then scored a couple of baskets on the counter to give me the win.
