WHAT a performance from Andy Murray on Thursday – and his f-bombing fiancee Kim – as the super Scot reached his fourth Australian Open Final with a stunning win over Tomas Berdych.
Murray is now down to 7-4 with Bet365 for his first Melbourne title and will find out this morning who he'll face in Sunday's final as Novak Djokovic and defending champ Stan Wawrinka do battle in the second semi at 8.30am.
Djokovic – gunning for his fifth Aussie Open crown – is 1-4 at Paddy Power to dispose of SportingBet's 37-10 shot Wawrinka. It's the third year in a row the pair have faced each other in the tournament and the previous two have both gone to five sets, a repeat of which pays
4-1 at Ladbrokes.
Elsewhere on Friday it's day two of golf's Dubai Desert Classic where Ace Venturer's tip Bernd Wiesberger has made a great start to top the board. And our man's pick of Ryan Palmer at the Phoenix Open is also looking shrewd with the American setting the early pace.
In the NBA there's a top of West v top of East crunch as Portland Trail Blazers travel to Atlanta Hawks among the nine-match fixture list while the late-night action also includes an opening cricket ODI between New Zealand and Pakistan.
Good luck with your bets and post your sporting tips and thoughts here.
In December 2020 we sadly 
Guys did anyone see Gustavsen v Johnson ufc Stockholm last weekend? Best fight I’ve seen in a while even though it only lasted over 2 minutes :)
The brute force of Johnson is incredible and ufc fans eagerly await his next fight against John bones
Dudes wouldn’t say best fight in a while as it was fairly one sided but a head turning performance none the less.
Gone for over 39 games in the Djoko vs Wawrinka match, 11/10.
Hope it is a 5 setter Mr F in favour of Wawrinka
Fancy and hope Wawrinka can beat Djockovic this morning.
Stuck a wee £6 on early yesterday morning…Murray (4/6) Wawrinka(7/2) with bet365.
Be nice to be able to put the winnings and bit more on the final! Can’t be assed with Djockovic winning it again either or even having the opportunity…no offence to the great man ;)
Not a bad shout WN, like the look of it
My Bookie (www.sportsbet.com.au) is offering cash back on set betting if the game reaches 5 sets.
In light of that, how does the following sound (anyone who has a better idea on Tennis than me, lol):
– Novak Djokovic to win 3-1 sets @ $3.50
If it goes to 5 sets i’ll get cash back. Seems pretty safe to me.
Going to say the Memphis -5.5 is safe so anybody on either of my bets can cover on the Lakers +4.5 @ 17/10 @ 365 for a loss free night.
NICE TO WAKE UP TOO !
$50 SS OF GRIZZLIES -10 (WON)
$50 DOUBLE OF BUCKS OVER 198 (WON)
BULL -3.5
WAITING ON THE BULLS FOR A FULL HOUSE.
THANKS HUGGY AND JORDAN ONCE AGAIN !!
What are the Bulls playing at. Beat Golden State 1 day, then go into half time 11 down against Lakers after a 2 day rest…
MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY !
PULLING BACK THOUGH, GETTING STRONGER AS GAME GOES ON.
BE A SWEAT TO SEE IF THEY COVER MY -3.5
To try and contribute I’m going to try a bank builder using tips on here just out of interest. For this I’m starting at £1 (easy to work out what &10 would be).
£1 Grizzlies money line pays £1.18.
Won
lucky for u guys it went to over time how did he miss ;)
Bulls deserve to lose this. Played shocking the whole game.
I’m going to be laying low for the next while as have suffered some heavy losses yesterday (lumped on Clippers – 2 goals short) and today (lumped on Bulls – bout to get beat in 2nd overtime).
I’ve got $100 on Djokovic to win 3-1 (as I posted earlier). If i lose that then i’m off for a while.
I keep procrastinating too much about which game/s to choose, and it seems the ones i’m choosing to be on just lose, whereas all the ones I ‘considered’ but didnt bet on actually win.
WAS LOOKI AT SOME ONLINE BOOKIE AND READ THAT THEY REFUND LOOSING NBA BET IF GETS BEAT IN OVERTIME
NOW CANT REMEMBER WHO IT WAS. I THOUGHT BWIN BUT NOW CANT FIND IT AGAIN
ANYONE KNOW ?
THANKS
my comment was made at start of over time :(
Lakers smashed em in the end. Should have known Bulls would have been down on energy after that Extra Time win at Golden State.
Hi guys, can someone help me please. If you do an unders bet in bb ie bulls under 205 and it comes in in normal time, but then goes over in overtime, is this a loss? Thanks
Grimsby – correct, it’s a loss – Overtime counts as part of the normal game for US sports. Burnt me a couple of times when I first started doing B’ball betting.
Bad luck with the Bulls who managed to still force overtime with a very bad 1st quarter but collapsed in the 2nd OT.
Huggy’s SS *WON*
Double : Bulls -5, Grizzlies -6 *LOST*
Thx Huggy for that small profit :-)
@Grimsbyevertonian, if I’m not mistaken, NBA overtime still counts, so yes it would be a loss.
back by demand for one night only its the **SUPER SINGLE**
MEMPHIS GRIZZLIES -10
REASONING : superiority of the home court against a poor road side , and grizzlies are bang in form…
SCRAPED A WIN ( 99 – 69 ) LOL
also gone continue my ht betting and taking grizzlies -6 ht result. SMALL FUN BET!!
SCRAPED A HT WIN ( 50 – 35 ) LOL
(got the overs wrong but didn`t bet that)
nuva ss later , glad i avoided the lakers carnage…
That explains it then. Thanks for clearing that up for me attila, oriaz.
Great stuff huggy as usual !
Similar theme to the Murray match, for Stan v Djokovic. Stan to win first set 7/5 or 7/6 and Nole second set 6/0 or 6/1
Good call huggybear as always, I didnt touch last nights card cause willhill was making enhanced bets on the favorites and that usually means that at least one match it’s gonna go wrong haha
Tie break in the 1st :D
Stab always loses the head during matches and starts complaining about being sick
Stan
Missed the ss last night huggy. Have you stopped doing this? I cannot afford to cover 2/3 bets. Just curious
Nah . Gonna post 1 bet a night and use my new betting plan . See yesterdays thread..
up to all of you if want me to carry on posting
Also seen it mentioned above but the -7.5 for the hawks looks a gift , they are playing fantastic both end of the court
Portland +7 and Miami +9 seem like generous spreads.
Thanks for the grizzlies tip huggy and Attila, don’t be put off posting tips huggy, you don’t lose us half as much as other tipsters anyway!
Also this probably shouldn’t be in this thread but anyway, Danny Ings to Liverpool looks like it will be happening this window. All over twitter, been spotted with Liverpool representatives, and they definitely need strikers.
Danny Ings next permanent club Liverpool 5/6
I like rockets and raptors to cover if the spread is low enough, I will take a look later,personally Im not going to touch the Portland-Atlanta
TONIGHTS SUPER SINGLE IS :
THE CAVS -7.5 , HOPEFULLY IRVING IS HOT AGAIN.
outside chance lebron plays but doubful , they`ll have too much for the kings without him.
also look for cavs to pull away fast ( they have done last 2 games ) therefore continuing my ht spread (2 for 2 there)
RESULTS FROM NEW SYSTEM (MARTINDALE)
1ST BET GRIZZ -10 £25 / NOW £47 , BANKED THE £22 NOW BACK 2 £25
GOOD LUCK AS ALWAYS
Djockovic seems to be struggling a bit here his demenour is not what we are used to maybe a ploy to suck Warinka in and hit him hard in the 4th or 5th game ?
Huggy mate – just doing your single a day for the next while (no other bets) until I build bank back up. Lost most my pot over last 2 days (clips & bulls).
I like that you’ve gone back to a main single a day mate.
What you staking on the Cavs HT bet btw? My bookie only has each quarter handicap, not 1st half unfortunately which is why I did the HT/FT last time.
mate gonna try £25 , and if it loses double up till the winner arrives , bank of just ova a grand , hopefully wins will become a sweat on bet 5…
thinking cavs may start fast again , gonna try a small bet on 1 and 2 quarters..
GOOD LUCK , LETS WIN YOUR MONEY BACK.
So annoyed Djokovic didn’t capitalise when he was a break up in the 4th. His little meltdown cost me $250! At least I get my stake back with the cash back promo…but still.
Cricket:
England vs India
England to win 10/11
**WIN**
Haven’t watched the match yet how did it go?
GOT INGES AT EVENS WITH SKYBET
PUT 25 ON IT EARLIER, JUST LOOKED AGAIN HES NOW 2/5 TO JOIN LIVERPOOL
Djoko wins in 5 sets : 7-6 (7/1), 3-6, 6-4, 4-6, 6-0
What it a good match etc? Another 6-0 game wish the the game started between 4-7 would of been able to watch it,
Jamesspurfan, did u follow your correct set score through the match?
William bailie well done on your 5 set prediction, It was my only bet I did last night, so well pointed out
Are you kidding me!? Lakers!? Bulls can go to one of the hardest places this season in the GSW and win in overtime, but can’t beat one of the worst teams? Pathetic! Apologies to all but if you’re a vampire and covered then it’s not a problem.
Bucs Magic over 195.5 – WIN 215
Bulls -3.5 – LOSE Lakers 123-118 in OT
@ 4/5 **LOSE**
With Memphis -5.5 added @ 14/10 market won but bet lost thanks to the Bulls.
Cover @ 17/10 = no loss.
Attila ‘Should have known Bulls would have been down on energy after that Extra Time win at Golden State’? Don’t make excuses mate it was one of the best road teams against the worst home teams but lost in overtime.
If you’ve lost your pot over the last couple of days you wanna stop betting on Tennis and random football games too. Annoying seeing these hindsight comments the next day. Bets lose. No excuses, it’s not our fault.
BIT HARSH JORDAN , but i know what you mean , stick to one sport and dont blindly follow tips youv`e not researched and remember favourites lose…
Jordan, I don’t think anyone is blaming or pointing fingers.
I was backing the Bulls as well and was very confident about them covering the spread. The fact is they made up for their bad 1st quarter in the 2nd, 3rd and 4th and managed to go to overtime but then collapsed in the 2nd OT.
That’s also what we like about sports, win some, lose some.
At least that’s my opinion.
anyone else thinks that HAWKS -7.5 is a gift ?
home court on fire , portland well beatable on the road..
thoughts guys ?
Huggy that Suns spread looks a bit low to say the Lakers covered that last night, and Pheonix have had a rest. Just seen it was double ot too. It’ll just be my luck that the Bulls go and win outright.
Bulls boast a good record there but 3 games in 4 nights , loads of travelling , you`d think the suns cover the 5 , might be one for the ml…
Huggy,
Hawks -7 is definitely on my list @ 0.9/1 (1.90) with Ladbrokes.
Hawks are now going for their 18th win in a row against Portland who have lost 4 straight road games (and couldn’t beat Cleveland that was without LeBron).
What is a bit harsh mate? It’s common knowledge. Stick to what you know (and even that doesn’t pay off sometimes). Trust me I used to be exactly the same. Not digging at him but it’s just not nice to see him lose money.
Oriaz I’m not pointing fingers mate. I can take a losing bet (although I lost nothing) If there is one person who was on the Lakers ML then show them to me and I’ll call them a liar haha, its just the next day ‘oh I should have picked this, should have followed that’ stuff that comes after it. If you don’t fancy it, don’t post/follow it. Simple.
About the Hawks, can’t see why they can’t but Aldridge has been playing his ‘I’m not that injured’ card for Portland so you never know. Think they’ll fit nicely into a double though on the ML.
Hi all – what do u all think about the women’s tennis final tomorrow. The reason I ask is that we all know that S Williams has a great record against Sharapova and so based on this I have placed a large bet on Williams to win.
Now, normally I wouldn’t post asking for confirmation that I’m doing the right thing but I never usually bet tennis but it stanads out as a almost guaranteed bet (although odds of 2-5 would suggest the same)
Bet 2 of the bank builder. Cleveland Cavaliers ML, can only get odds on Paddypower and its 2/7.
Bet 2 £1.18 for potential returns of £1.52
evo u bet to win so small , favorites lose all the time , ull have 0 soon enough if your trying to turn that pound into something worthwhile , u do that bet 10 times u will get wiped out
Mr fisherman , what an insult !! he may need a fiver and sees this as his best chance !!! LOL
:( i was trying to help him going broke yesterday he did same he will win a few then lose but if he needs 5 only lol maybe he will win still doubt it , as i normally back underdogs , or ur ss :)
Pheonix Suns ML
Toronto Raptors ML
@ EVS @ PP
Pheonix will be too fresh for the Bulls who were taken to double overtime by the Bryantless Lakers in LA last night. Pheonix are one of the strongest home sides averaging 107 points at home. Bulls don’t tend to hit form after no rest (18th) especially after double OT. Also Jimmy Butler hurt his knee and did not return. Butler had 35 points for the Bulls, a career high.
WHATS THE VERDICT HUGGY ?
THE BOOKS ARE NOW UP
HAWKS -7.5 OR CAVALIERS -6.5
I CANT DECIDE
BRIAN , toss of a coin ….
i`m on cavs , but have always liked the hawks , just such a unit at the moment.
jordan i for one have been guilty of `what if` and agreed its not nice seeing someone lose cash , these fourfold ova 4 sports look lovely on a bet slip but rarely come in at any decent odds , thats why i`m back going for one single and doubling on a loss.
great info on the bulls , butler -less you can easily see the suns winning as they are just one place into the playoffs so need the home court wins.
also in injuries news anthony davies is listed as questionable , so take if betting this match.
also alridge hit 38 at cleveland and still couldn`t beat irving so i`m thinking hawks at home will defo cover the 7s on offer.
my ss sees the cavs home to kings , kings on a run of 7 and 0 defeats against cavs with a 8 win hot streak and if anyone is looking for an under bet , favourite is the hawks game with figures of 8 from 10 being under.
GOOD LUCK AS ALWAYS GUYS , LEVEL STAKES ( NO CHASING LOSSES ) WE`LL GET IT BACK TOMORROW !!!
I like the cav’s pick.
But will hang off until Davis status is confirmed. If he is out, Clippers -6 looks very good.
HELLO HUGGY
ALREADY DONE THE 25QUID SS AS ALWAYS,
AND JORDAN’S DOUBLE ALSO.
BUT JUST A QUICK QUESTION AS IVE JUST REALISED IM LEAVING A GOOD BONUS BEHIND EVERY BET.
ON SKYBET YOU GET FREE BETS EVERY WEEK – SPEND 100 GET 20 FREE, SPEND 250 GET 50 FREE.
A FREE 50 BET EVERY WEEK WOULD BE A GREAT HELP ACCOUNT BUILDING.
ONLY PROBLEM FOR A BET TO QUALIFY IT MUST BE OVER EVENS.
EVERY SS IS 10/11 OR 5/6 SO JUST SHY. WAS WONDERING IF NEXT SS ONWARDS CAN YOU HELP US WITH A DOUBLE, BE 1/10 ODDS ON JUST TO CATCH EVENS AND QUALIFY FOR THE FREE WEEKLY BET.
Going early and before i make a twat of it and take the someone like Bulls last night when should have known better(rest romped it)
Taken…
Phoenix…spread
Cavaliers…6.5
Hawks…-5.5
Raptors…ML
Warriors…ML
Pays just under 8/1 ;). GL folk
I’m on Huggy’s SS (5pts), Jordan’s Double (5pts) and also added Hawks -7 to them all for a fourfold for the lolz (1pt).
– Cavaliers -8
– Hawks -7
– Raptors ML
– Suns ML
Total 5.88/1 at Ladbrokes.
GL tonight!
Huggy I too have been guilty for what ifs in the past but came to realize, what’s the point. Doesn’t help anybody the day after and makes yourself look more stupid for not backing it in the first place. Attila stick to what you know mate, only looking out for you.
Saw Davis is questionable for the Pelicans but also JJ Redick is questionable for the Clippers. If Davis is out I’d be inclined to take the Clippers but only on the ML.
I think LeBron will play, the way he was celebrating when Kyrie hit 55 the other night just gives me a feeling. Think he was just having one of those days and wanted a break so a good pick for the SS mate.
Will put up my £10 bet later seeing as we have plenty of games tonight so would be rude not to, Just waiting for all markets to appear.
Brian my advice would be try to perhaps make a double or treble at smaller odds to get over the EVS. Not as easy picking three but if you take some of the tips on here into a bundle like a few do than it could be quite profitable. You could perhaps take Huggy’s SS @ 10/11 and add a 1/6 and get overs EVS.
I’ve heard it all now. Should have known better picking the Bulls. Dear oh dear.
Points spread for the Suns was at -3.5 an hour ago. Now -6 :)
wat team news is behind that big change ? i should of done grizzlies to win by 30 … lol
Brian i`m sure skybet do alternatives to the spread , so you could take cavs -9.5 @ evens or take jordans advice and look for a nice safe ML to add to the 10/11.
whatever you decide hope the cavs have a blinder and i agree with you Jordan that the king will surely take to the court , been a while since lebron dominated the basket like irving did although im sure he`s hit a few 50 plus games in a heat shirt , but he basically won that game on his own.
WELL I LOOKED DOWN THE ML LIST FOR THE BIGGEST FAVORITE TO MAKE THE BETS UP TO OVER EVENS.
YES GSW WAS 1/6 AND THE BIGGEST FAVORITE
AND YES I PUT THEM IN AND INSTEAD OF BEING UP IM NOW DOWN !
AS EVERYTHING ELSE TIPPED WAS A WINNER.
MAKES ME SO ANGRY, JUST LOOKING FOR THE FREE WEEKLY BET.
THINK I CAN THAT IDEA. 1/6 !!!
YEAH JORDAN I THINK BE THE SUPER SINGLE AND A ML ODDS ON FAVORITE TO GET THEM OVER EVENS.
BETS ARE ON FOR TONIGHTS GAME SO WILL TRY IT TOMORROW.
THANKS AGAIN MAN
Probably should have read the rest of your post Brian haha, yes do that mate.
£10 Fun Bet @ PP (20% Bonus)
Cavs -7.5
Hawks -7
Raptors -7.5
GSW -10
Suns -5.5
@ 24/1 (without 20%) Max stake £500 so go easy hahaha
Caps can be annoying ;)
Franky I will b watchin the final in bed wiv a cuppa and a bowl of frosties, I think Sharavopa may nick a close one.
Butler has to be out Huggy. Can’t see any other reason for a 2 point jump in an hour. Hahaha yeah ffs mate there’s you with your 10/11 when you could have raked it ;) All hail King James!
Brian Huggy is correct Skybet do alternative spreads as well as alternative team points which you get odds of 2/5 at the shortest.
Thanks for your view Dave although I hope your wrong lol
Not a tip but I’m looking to start a challenge soon so I’m trying to find what I think is the best low risk market for each game everyday. Just seeing what the strike rate would be out of the 9 tonight. If you want to put £1 on it pays 15/1 @ WillHill
Minnesota Timberwolves @ Philadelphia 76ers – Alternative Total Over (182.5) @ 2/7
Sacramento Kings @ Cleveland Cavaliers – Alternative Handicap Cleveland Cavaliers (-3.5) @ 2/5
Portland Trail Blazers @ Atlanta Hawks – Money Line Atlanta Hawks @ 5/14
Houston Rockets @ Boston Celtics – Alternative Total Points Over (196.5) @ 3/10
Toronto Raptors @ Brooklyn Nets – Alternative Handicap Toronto Raptors (-2.5) @ 4/9
Los Angeles Clippers @ New Orleans Pelicans – Money Line Los Angeles Clippers @ 5/12
Dallas Mavericks @ Miami Heat – Alternative Total Points Over (180.5) @ 2/7
Golden State Warriors @ Utah Jazz – Alternative Handicap Golden State Warriors (-4.5) @ 4/11
Chicago Bulls @ Phoenix Suns – Money Line Phoenix Suns @ 5/12
tiger woods 11 over 2nd round LOL
Highlander thanks for that. Had a mate who put a ton on him to win it. I shall now ring his ear hahaha
Fr4nky, I would say the only reason you’re getting 4/9 now about Serena Williams is the news that she was feeling a bit sick and has been battling a cold for last week. But it hasn’t affected her performances and I’m not buying the scare stories. She is desperate to add another slam to her list and Sharapova is tailor made for her – she plays right into SW’s hands, every time, and she doesn’t have the mentality to overcome her. Hopefully Ade will be on soon to give you his verdict, but for me it’s a cracking price, it should be a lot shorter.
Of course we want you to continue Huggy!
Keep up the good work mate.
what do people think of
hawks +1
raptors+1
suns+1
cavs-3.5
@ 2.05/1
does that looklike a safe bet for double odds
Guys what price was Murray ante post ?
Cooldude, Murray was 12-1.
Lon_don looks ok to me mate but a bit of advice. The +1 doesn’t really mean much, as if the were +1 needed to win the bet, the game would essentially be going to overtime. Might as well take the ML prices mate.
Thanks Jordan just thought +1 would avoid overtime just incase and there wasn’t too much difference between the odds, but what you saying makes sense thanks mate.
Decided to go with hawks ml, raptors ml, suns ml, and cavs -3.5 @2.5/1
BRIAN haven’t sky bet cancelled the £50 free bet now? And made £20 the maximum
NO STILL DO, IF YOU BET 100 A WEEK IT 20 FREE AND IF 250 ITS 50 FREE
Lon_don, no mate as the bet would still be going because the game isn’t over. Skybet do markets to win without OT but you can never be too sure. Looks good to me mate. Suns now -7 favourites, from -3.5 this afternoon. Cheers Patrick Power hahaha
Whos on who for the Super Bowl lads??
Seahawks, Christy. Be interesting to see what happens to the prices over the weekend.
Wow another night bombed on the footy. Shite time of year i think. Anyway based on huggy n jordans insight tonight im on
Cavs -8
And a 6/1
Hawks -7
suns -3.5
Raptors -3.5
Gs -5
Was a bad night for football bets, let’s hope the NBA teams can cover it all :D
Huggy cavs -4.5 at the half
How does that number look
It’s only -7.5 for the game
I am the same as you Attila just following Huggys 1 bet per night nothing else..soccer has killed my balance this week.
GL all.
bulls screwed me last night, luckily only had 25 on it.
im contemplating whether to lump on cavs or hawks tonight…thoughts?
ESPN still saying LeBron is out!? Update 5 hours ago.
Have taken…
Minnesota +2.5
Miami +12.5
Toronto -3.5
Houston -2.5
3.9/1
Any reasoning why you think that Jordan?
I was leaning towards patriots but really can’t make up my mind :)
Hawks have went from -7.5 to -5 on bet 365 that can’t be good
Christy, in no necessary order.
1. Defense wins Championships
2. Deflate Gate
3. Russel Wilson vs Superbowl winning QB‘s 10-0 (my favourite stat)
4. Marshawn Lynch
5. The comeback against Green Bay
6. The Legion of Boom
7. Last time best defense played best offense was last year, look how that turned out, Seattle blew Denver away (Pats by no means the best offense)
8. The chief, Johnb both tipped Seattle to win it back to back at the start of the season
That’s a few reasons, but then others would say never back against Brady or Belichick (usually me) but you can only back two teams and I prefer Seattle. This is being talked up as a flip of the coin game, but every game in the NFL is I suppose. Any given Sunday as they say. Only thing that worries me is that Richard Sherman and Earl Thomas are on the injury list. Really important to keep an eye on prices leading up to Sunday/Monday morning. What’s for certain is that it’s going to be one of the greatest shows on earth!
Oh 9. Katy Perry wants them to win :D
David. Just had a look. Carroll (general soreness) will not play against Portland on Friday, the Atlanta Journal Constitution reports.
That’ll be it. Fairly important player. http://espn.go.com/nba/player/gamelog/_/id/3970/demarre-carroll
Jordan +1 is better than money line because it’s void if they lose by 1
Jordan, shermans fit to play though isnt he?
VP, depends which bookie you use mate.
Ross, yes Sherman is probable, Thomas is questionable.
vp take the plus 1 as ot counts in the usa sports and if it level at end of game u win.
Dave, if it’s level at the end of the game they go to overtime again…
Today going with a bit more of a longshot of favourites. Yesterday the treble I put up was brought down by the Bulls as the case with many others.
Cleveland Cavaliers -3.5
Atlanta Hawks -2.5
Houston Rockets -2.5
Toronto Raptors
LA Clippers
Golden State Warriors -3.5
Odds: 6.29
Cavs spread bounced up to -10! The King is in!
jor I was talkin bout nfl, apolgies dude think u r on bout nba
Dave it was because somebody asked about a bet with a few +1’s in before but I said they might as well take the ML. +1 is basically a DNB if they lose by 1, and I don’t see the point in that. But you’re correct, the only way the +1 would win in NFL overtime would be if it were a tie. Or if the team lost in regular time by 1 for a void (bookie depending).
Dave I was responding to earlier comments. I nearly always use spreads with .5s on the end for clarity.
is there a particular reason why you use 0.5 ending for the spread?
V P same here. Lon_don, because say you had two bets on a team to win by -3 and -2.5, and they won 23-20, depending which bookie your with, the -3 would either lose or be a push.
Cavs cover the ht spread , that’s 3 from 3 with my half time bets… anyone have a bit ?
And the odds won’t be that different for that half a point and you’d rather have it win by half a point than just voided in a scenario such as the one Jordan pointed out.
yea makes sense thanks guys
I took a bit huggy
anyone watching the hawks. I’ve a double and treble -6.5, they look beat?
Huggy I didn’t mate but very well done. We were right about LeBron :)
His presence lifts love irving , he hasnt scored heavily but cavs are on fire.
to be fair you did call his inclusion I just agreed.
those on the hawks , they’ll explode in the 4th I think
Not watching Langer but been checking the scores and it’s been neck and neck the whole way.
I’m too busy watching Toronto blow this 17 point lead haha
what the hell happend to Toronto
And there it goes. Yay!
Lon_don, don’t, just don’t…haha
Well done Huggy!
F**k me we’re going to overtime. Three of my bets this week have had games go to overtime. I’ve got no nails left!
Take it the Raptors on the Money line is still ok if they win in overtime? Just squeaked the Hawks st -5.5…can things not be easy. Toronto were romping it when I was away watching the Hawks :|
Better get the finger out Toronto for F@#k sake! Not the Nets AGAIN. Between them an the Nicks am hating NY! :|
im too old for basketball with all these timeouts
THANK F**K! Raptors win in OT 127-122
Covering the EVS double on the Bulls ML @ 5/2
is there anyway to cover the warriors or is it worth waiting on it a bit longer?
Recoba they were 17 up in the third! Scraped it.
good tips people thanks theres another win huggy :)
glad raptors won for u aswell jordon
Phew! Second that emotion Jordan.
Needing the Suns-6 for full house.
C’mon Suns. Surely the Bulls away again at a fresh good home team like Phoenix can sail in!?
Here’s hopin! ;)
Mr Fish I’m glad for myself too haha, thanks mate.
gl recoba i took 4 of ur 5 need suns -7
recoba thought u had warriors aswell ? hope u didnt
Recoba they started off -3.5 today and they’re now -7 so I’d like to think so. But by the look of a few results tonight it’s going to sh*t on us haha, fingers crossed for us. I was going to go to bed but I’ll see how the first half pans out.
Pelicans beat the Clippers without Davis, the Utah Jazz up almost 20 points against GSW in the 3rd. A few landmines tonight, nearly lost both legs!
Williams vs sharpova
I’ll be following these bets
Williams 6-0@ £3 25/1
Williams 6/1@£3 9/1
Sharapova 6-0@£3 100/1
Sharapova 6-1@£3 28/1
sharapova 6-2@£3 16/1
Good luck
I was on te cavs – thanks for the tip
Serena is a beast beat my Sharapova bet but pretty scary that performance, 34 looks like she could dominate till she’s 40 if she still wants it.
Take a bow Huggybear and Jordan..
On your SS Huggy for another winner.
Jordan done your double of Suns and Raptors chucked Hawks in there for a nice return.
Thanks guys i am done with dodgy footy for a while..NBA is the way.
hey guys, I need help, of recent I’be been betting online using my fone but then bet365 sent me a message saying my account has been found to be using a USA ip address, yet its not allowed therefore I’ve been broked
Great stuff Huggy/Jordan!
My fourfold including Hawks -7 almost landed too.
All in all a good night that covered the football losses.
Keep it up ;-)
