Waterford-Finn Harps draw
5er returns 89 or so
My bet for the night:
St Pats v Drogheda. Selection: Drogheda (Draw No Bet) - 7/4
Longford, Bohs, Shams, Draw in Bray.
5er gives you 68
I have Bohs, Bray, Sligo, Drogheda, Rovers, Waterford, Longford, Athlone, Cork ,and Youths to win. Just over a grand back for a €2 sake.
That's what happens after cheap rice wine alright. ;-)
Make it to any games tonight?
Bloody Shamrock Rovers. There's always one. It was never a gimme I suppose, in fairness.
So Linfield are worse than we even thought possible. And Zombie Kenny is back in action!
Wasn't gonna get involved this season, but got sucked in at around 7.00pm!
Fared okay, though (usually just predict scorelines, couple of 'em came in), so prob in for rest of year now :terror:
Won't pretend I'm a big rap devotee, but this one's the only job when the sites are a bit tardy with the balance updates :

Feckin ballocks.
Town win and Harps double chance won, my 3rd bet is Athlone win. Why do everyone seem to rate Cobh quite highly?
Athlone at practically evens is incredible odds, a double with Wexford is about 4/1, great value me thinks.
I'd take them in singles if I were you. Doubles are rarely worth the risk unless you're putting two low odd bets together to get it up near evens.
I started badly last night picking Drogs DNB, but I really don't see Wexford beating Cobh tonight.Quote:

A fool and his money etc..gone for Cobh Draw No Bet and Athlone in single bets. Athlone the bigger bet of the two.

I'm guessing most of you are just doing it for fun thou so I won't rain on your parade too much, but, I just thought I'd reiterate that point, it might help someone.
OK, I'll explain why I rate Cobh personally.Quote:

These players are essentially mid-season because they've been playing throughout winter, so also they have a head start on other teams in that sense.
So I think they will do well this season.
I've gone with city -1 tonight at 5/1. Delusional confidence perhaps but hey I'm from cork.
Cobh look big @11/2 v Waterford on Monday (Laddys)
Paddy's have next weeks prem fixtures priced up.Lims @ 3/1 v Drogs looks ok.

Derry let me down on Friday all I needed was a goal from them had Town -1 and Derry Sligo BTTS at roughly 2/1
My young lad had a fairly ok Friday night;

Not a big fan of cup betting but taking everything into consideration I really like the look of Longford win @2.2 and Dundalk to beat Shelbourne @2.
Might double them as double chances @1.61 instead.
Usually stay away from League Cup games unless I've very strong reasons to back something.
Small stake:
EA Sports Cup
Waterford vs Cobh Ramblers - Cobh win @9/2.
Yesterday i backed Cobh draw no bet in Paddy Power @4/1. It's 3/1 now but still overpriced IMO.Quote:

Lose-make noise
Win - Make more noise
Fcuk the cnuts
Paddy's a ****** anyway Sky bet is the only one giving real free bets
Skybet would suspend betting if a few people put a tenner on something. They're all as bad as each other.
Feckin Cobh match being called off cost me an extra 30 bucks or so, but still, with a void bet I still won a tenner :cool:
I find the way to catch out bookies with LOI betting is to check the odds at the start of the week, cos as soon as any bit of money goes on someone the price plummets.Quote:

Salthill look big odds away to Mervue this weekend @ 6/1+.
The Galway div 1 El Classico is usually close.
I read that Salthill were very depleted for their first game vs Longford.
Any knowledgeable Galway punters here with an opinion on the game?
Is it worth laying Rovers at home to Pats? Can get nearly evens on double chance - Pats or draw.
Can lay Rovers on betfair also for about 6/5.
Have gone for a Dundalk, Harps, Sligo, Derry, and Cork accum.
Stuck a sly 10er on Harps, Athlone and Salthill . Pays back 350 euro. Salthill are rubbish but at 6/1 against Mervue i cant refuse that
They could be 100/1 against Mervue and I would refuse it.
