ROD (Punting For Fun) is proving bankers are best – unless you take Man City – with his fourth winner in a row.
On Saturday he went for an over 1.5 goals treble in matches at Dinamo Zagreb, Hapoel Kiryat Shmona and Twente and the 1.78 win came in fairly comfortably.
The latest success takes Rod's profit up to 26.8 points while Lee, whose -1 fourfold was beaten by Man City and Hearts, is yet to land a big winner.
Rod and Lee are playing to see which type of betting will profit over the course of the month with £50 of betting vouchers going to Rod if he wins.
Lee's single or accumulator must be a minimum 10-1 and Punting For Fun's can be as short as he wants but must be odds on.
Tips must be posted every day – if anyone misses out Lee will be deducted one point and Punting For Fun five points.
I'll put up Sunday selections when I see them,

Really impressed with both of the chaps tips,,punting for fun looks to have found his niche and is build his bank as is the quest..respect…I hope Lee gets a result soon as its all about getting a return from the bookies!!!
Right keeping on the treble theme as its been quite profitable for the challenge if it ain’t broke don’t fix it so here goes for Sundays Bet.
All 3 picks are Double Chance selections.
14:00 Excelsior Virton- Draw Double chance
13:30 Ajax- Draw Double chance
13:30 Club Brugge-Draw Double chance
Bet365 @ 1.92 odds
And as usual i forget something that is a 10 point treble sorry Mr F but managed to remember to add the stake in time :-)

Punting For Fun, OK I’ll put it up shortly.
Mr F just looked at the thread and you have Bruges instead of Brugge just in case folk think that is Cercle Bruges instead of Club Brugge just for the record.
Punting For Fun, I always write Brugge as Bruges and if it’s Cercle Bruges I’ll write Cercle Bruges. Hope that clears it up. Same as I’ll use Hamburg instead of Hamburger, etc.
No problem m8 maybe it should have been bruges as brugges are 1 down and watched a bit of it brugge were all over them and missed a right sitter 3 yards out or less, bit like that porto game not long ago :-(
Punting For Fun, I see that – I hope they equalise for you.
Good luck PFF keep the winners coming mate!!
Thx RobertJB
Now I understand th bank builder. PFF seems to be doing so well it must be making long short lee get scared. But all long short lee needs is one good bet and he’ll be back into the game.
Though as things stand…..think I’ll buy PFFs idea for the mean time as it guarantees success. Hehe :-) . Anyway, good luck guys…. Especially Lng short Lee coz am sure he needs it more. lol
Allan, glad to hear it – that was what I was trying to prove. Unfortunately I picked cup week to do mine and that’s another lesson learned.
Sory about that Mr F, bt ges its part of the gumbling experience…. Gud luck nxt time

15 mins to go and not looking good :(
Well the run comes to an end and it was a pretty dire 2nd half by brugges and deserved nothing on the 2nd half performance, bereft of ideas up front and just did not look like they would get anything out the game pretty bad in the end, one for future ref tho and a team to avoid in the foreseeable future.
Onto the next bet tomorrow and the really annoying thing is i looked at about 30 different outcomes and trawled through various perms and choices especially with over 1.5 goals, and when you see these other selections coming in and knowing you didn’t pick them after all that research and it is pretty time consuming it is frustrating knowing a bad choice was picked.
But you have to have the courage of your convictions and take it on the chin and move on even more determined to get it right next time.
Apologies for anyone who followed today and we move on to tomorrow.
I followed so that’s why it probably lost! Any thoughts on the African final or Barcelona -1?
Only bet I am doing is corner before 9 mins in the Ivory v Ghana game 5/6 bet365
