HeadtoHead

DANNY TAYLOR is the first seed to be playing in our head-to-head tipster challenge and he's made a slow start with three losers.

The Oz-based Scot is hoping to make up some ground today on David Smith and has already posted a couple of bets on the internationals.

.

Hundreds of people who entered the contest didn't get a chance to play but sponsors Ladbrokes have put up 10 x £10 spot prizes for those not involved.

And we're giving the first one away today. To have a chance of winning a tenner from Ladbrokes all you have to do is win more money than Danny today. Minimum mythical bet is £50 at 1-4 so a £12.50 profit could be enough if Danny's efforts all go down.

To win the tenner you have to beat Danny and be the person who has made most today following the contest rules. But with Danny losing £400 on the first two days the maximum bet you can have is £600.

Post your bets here only – one comment per person but you can have more than one bet – and follow the same rules as the competitors, for example quote Ladbrokes prices, no perms, etc etc. In the event of a tie we'll have a tiebreaker contest.

Here is a re-cap of the rules.

  • All players will start their games with a mythical £1,000 betting fund and you can stake from £50 to £1,000 on any football bet provided Ladbrokes have priced it up.
  • Stakes have to be quoted as do all prices and they have to be Ladbrokes' odds. If you're backing an accumulator please provide the individual odds as well the combined odds. Perms are not allowed. In-running bets are not allowed. And bets must only be on football.
  • You can bet on any football market provided by Ladbrokes but winnings won't be allocated if no price is quoted. All tips must be posted before the start of the relevant event, for example by 2.59pm for a 3pm kick-off.
  • Each person must over the course of the week-long contest must place a minimum of 20 bets so the £1,000 stake is utilised. This is to prevent a contestant sitting on his pot. Minimum take £50.
  • Single or accumulated odds must be 1-4 or above.
  • You cannot copy exactly the same bet as your opponent. You can however include the same bet in an accumulator that includes at least one different selection.
  • The winner will be the person who has accumulated most winnings, including stakes, by the deadline for the tie. But if one of the players loses his £1000 pot before the deadline his opponent will be declared the winner. Winnings can be staked so if your pot increases above £1,000 you have that money to play with. Stakes will be included in winning bets.

      well…….. Estonia this time last year were the highest they have ever been 47 in the fifa world rankings, so in the space of a year have slipped all the way to 83rd……. scotland in 69th place.

      May put alittle on an ESTONIA win just incase.

Email your address to mrfixit@dailyrecord.co.uk and I’ll arrange for Ladbrokes to send you a £10 free bet. Thanks to all who played and look out for more chances to win a tenner.
