Hi
It has been a while since I dabbled on this particular thread and with Cheltenham coming up it could be the last for a week or so. The wagers here have also been used on the Joe.. goes to the corner 🙂 thread but obviously only for the corners aspect of the wager.
Hearts v Hibernian BB 6-4 LS 50-1
Nottinham Forest v Man United BB 7-4 LS 66-1
Liverpool v Southampton BB 15-8 LS 66-1
The Banker Bet on all three games is BTTS + 1 corner each half both teams and 1 card or more both teams.
The Long Shot wager on all three games will be BTTS and 2+ corners both teams both halves and 20+ booking points both teams in the match.
We have mixed these up a bit just for fun but as per usual you do your own thing. 🙂

Hi Joe
Something’s wrong, I actually fancy this one myself as I have used three of the same matches on the main Goalpost Tips thread , albeit in a slightly different context. I cannot remember the last time we agreed on a bet. ? Well that’s given tonights little wager the kiss of death (sorry about that)…lol. 🙂

Hi
After getting the both Basketball wagers in early last saturday morning we had high hopes of a decent return, only for it all to fall apart in the last 10 minutes of all the other games. 🙁
However beware, as when this happens I get grumpy and will be throwing some silly ones in for this weekends competition along with a couple of banker bets. It’s all to with old age but…. 🙂

Hi Suds
I will have another look as well now that the Club Rugby is back. The Six Nations is fun to do but so unpredictable. 🙁 That’s no offense to Italy who played a blinder but if you played that game again tomorrow I would still be thinking France by at least 15 points. The fact that they were -35 in the prematch handicap was nuts.

Hi
After a terrible run of luck having a 25-1 win on Noble Birth just about restores your faith. 🙂
This brought in a nice +26 point profit on this thread and more importantly a whopping +56 point profit on the Mike’s Retirement Plan thread and makes for a great day at the office. 🙂 🙂

Hi
This betting game is strange old affair. I have had the worst run of luck over the last few days as mentioned in the previous post. Added to which I crashed out on the rival retirement plan in the Goalposts thread yesterday by missing just one of the ten options listed in the bet.
I then do two today the first one loses and I literally cannot be asked to watch the last race and Noble Birth romps home at 16-1 advised at 25-1.
This brings our running total to a very healthy looking +87.75 points but the next bet has to a minimum 9 point layout to keep the rolling maul going. There is nothing on the horizon until Thursday but we will be back. 🙂

Hi
I had two over at Naas last night taken from the Winning Post Tips thread to choose from and did not know which one to go for so with the way my luck has been going this weekend 🙁 I flipped a coin. 🙂
It landed sideways 🙁 Its been one of those weeks Chris Gotterup was tied for seventh when he pulled out injured. Glen Kiln fell two out when vying for the lead and Wales conceded a try against a 14 man Ireland in the last minute to lose our handicap bet by one point. 🙁
So we will take that as a hint and split todays bet between both and go 2 points each way which will use up our 8 point wager.
1.55 Bossofthebus 250-1 but we have taken the 40-1 for 10 places
3.55 Noble Birth @ 25-1 for 5 places

[Mike]

Hi
Glen Kiln was joint first well clear of the rest of the field (three out) when falling but such is life.
We will be going for two each way shouts over at Naas tomorrow which will be as follows
1.55 Bossofthebus 250-1 but we have taken the 40-1 for 10 places
3.55 Noble Birth @ 25-1 for 5 places

Hi Joe
Well done 😊 its gets a bit depressing when you keep hitting the crossbar.🫤 But it makes the wins much more enjoyable. 👍

[Mike]

Hi
Obviously with Sharetheknowledge being yet another non runner it is dissapointing 🙁 but we area at least left with some interest via Glen Kiln which has now become an each way single.

[Mike]

Hi
We have a similar situation this week but this looks a decent shout

MIL Bucks +4.5 to beat the MIN Timberwolves @ 10-11
DEN Nuggets -9 to beat the POR Trail Blazers @ 10-11
Wales + 23 to beat Ireland @ 1-1
England +4 to beat Scotland @ 1-1
Man City to beat Bournmouth and over 2 goals in the game @ 4-5
Man United to beat Fulham and over 2 goals in the game @ 4-5

This weeks lottery numbers are the usual 4,7,16,23,31 and 50

[Mike]

Hi
We will try two for tomorrow which will be in an each way double at Fairyhouse
1.30 Sharetheknowledge 16-1
2.40 Glen Kiln @ 6-1 4 places
We will have to wait a little longer to place the double as the extra markets have not yet been published and we wish to bet without the favourite/s on Sharetheknowledge.

[Mike]

Hi
That was better and worth the wait. Shana Cloon placed third wiping its nose and Pax came fourth so both bets on that came in giving us a profit on the day of just over +5 points.
We are going over to Thurles tomorrow for this one which we will take on tonight.
4.25 Mullins Cross @ 11-1 for 5 places.

[Mike]

Hi
Pax placed fourth and by using up our 7 point option (at 3.5 points each way) gave us a return of 14.70 which left us with a nice enough +7.70 profit on the day. This means our current running total is now at +31.75 but the next bet has to be an 8 pointer.
The fun begins… 🙂

[Mike]

Hi
For those who picked up on last nights post we might be on one here Pax was 80-1 last night and is being backed off the boards this morning. We have taken the 16-1 for 10 places and 20-1 for 9 places for the thread but wish we had taken the 80-1 now. That said the horse still has to run, the meeting still has to go ahead and the horse still has to finish the race in the top 3 to get 80-1 whereas finishing 9th or better I would be happy with….lol.
