I'VE got no idea what's happening in the world of basketball and baseball although I didn't notice any NBA games tonight.
Anyway I thought I better put up a new thread before there are complaints. And remember it's not just about hitting bases and throwing hoops, you can put up any sports tips or chat here including boxing – with the big Ricky Burns fight taking place tonight and good luck to the Scots champion.
I noticed there's some NHL action with Toronto facing Montreal. I can't see anything but a win for the Canadians but maybe winter sports expert raaljaca will be more insightful.
In December 2020 we sadly

DeAndre, you’re the man, keeping me in the black after my awful football bets each day ha.
Cheers DeAndre
Hope everyone’s well on a sat! today’s matches should have provided lots of you with winners:)
DeAndre – may i know where do you get your player performance bets from? can’t seem to get em on bet365:/
Paddy Power, you can get them on B365 but not in multiples :-)
Naturally ;-)
Indiana (10/33) not great odds but as sure a winner as I can see…no guarantees though bet within your means :-)

£££££££ NBA OVERS/ UNDERS £££££££

gbjefr
01/03/2014
leon i personally was looking for o 201/202 in denver/portland game but 205/206 s/b fine as i see it getting somewhere around 215
Ok GB. The wine is out feet r up and iPad getting battered. Lets get some cash.
Should be a good night tonight, a lot of teams that consider themselves contenders this year are playing and I expect them all to put on a show…fingers crossed.
NEW THREAD MUCH APPRECIATED MR F ….
Deandre my man how are you? Any chance of giving us a long accum? I wanna have.some fun lol
Gbgefr, what would you advice me on your picks, shall I go for the big 1 or small 1
Do both abbas just do the overs retain selections and add the unders on it :)
The player per. is 10/1 and Jefs overs/unders pays 16/1 surely that’s enough fun? :-)
IVE HAD USUAL 5% OF BALANCE ON MY 4 TIMER AND 2 % ON THE 6 FOLD ABBAS I USUALLY USE STAKING PLAN OF 7% ON SINGLES 3-5% ON DOUBLES AND TREBLES DEPENDING ON ODDS AND 2% ON 4 FOLDS OR BIGGER!! I KNOW I AM DOIN LITTLE MORE THAN USUAL TONITE BUT COMING OFF THE BACK OF SOME GOOD RETURNS SRY IF THIS IS CONFUSING
That Anthony Joshua looked like Ivan Drago from Rocky IV wow!
7.5 % SINGLES
3-5 % DOUBLES/TREBS
1-2 % 4 TIMERS+
U WONT GO TO FAR WRONG UNLESS YOU GO ON A HORRENDOUS RUN
AND IF/WHEN I DO GO ON THAT HORRENDOUS RUN WHICH WOULD TAKE WEEKS/MONTHS PROBABLY BEST TO QUIT !! HAHAHAHHAHAH BUT DONT THINK I COULD ;)
Steady on oak give Andre some space ,,and there’s as a little word called please !!!!!
Ha ha relax minty, we were all over the tips in the old thread….so the new thread looked empty…
Haha oaks loves it, cheers deandre and gbj, lads I’m hyper tonight, I don’t know.what happening but all I know is that I want some NBA lol, how’s every1 day.been betting wise?
Good evening everyone I hope you are all in profit from today’s football !!congratulations to Mr F for some fantastic football tips 520profit happy dAYS
Not the best days punting fir me I was HEAVY on Tiqris…and we all know how that went :-(
I had couple of trebles one winner 1 loser. Sheffield we’d/. Hartlepool/ Luton-1. Paid 10s. And Rotherham/Ipswich/Stirling. Stirling sole losers to the worse team in Scotland
Had a pony day in regards to horses
I was really shocked with that tbh, I never watched it but my friend told me it was dreadful and as for curruthers I won’t even go there, reading let me down for 3.2k today, had Suarez 2+, just was a dreadful day but I guess that’s the gamble,
If you guys are interested I’m pretty good at finding great valued odds on bets which are great for accum, I can post 1 or 2 a day which I think could be great if you wanted to bump up your accums
Abbas I won’t say no to that my man. Just shot them out.
I can’t see Ricky burns lasting 12 rounds see him taken out with body shot but I my soft spot praying he pulls thru agin
I’d definitely be interested in you doing that for one, abbas. What sports we talking?
Anything that leads to more money for us is if course welcome mate…
Gut feeling behind it Ricky gonna hold he’s hands high to protect the jaw!!
I’ve bet him to win by KO/TKO/Stoppage, another bet that reaffirms my allergy to money :-)
Burns to win that is…
What nba games u feels are one winnders tonight peeps
Think he just means singles?
One winnders? At the risk of sounding stupid, what do you mean?
Undkta, it could be anything, football, horseracing, ufc etc, I study and see what’s great value, eg other day I pisted, real Madrid at 1/2 and chelsea/Galatasary over 4.5 cards @11/10, things like this which are great value, ggs take a lot of time to study and when I get time I do pretty well but with business sometimes very hard to study mate
Now that Baseball’s Spring Training is underway I was having a look and, while I have never bet on ST games a game stuck out to me then realised no bookie or the exchanges even have the market! So I looked at what they do offer on Baseball, just antepost just now. I was astonished at the 25/1 on offer at Bet 365 on the San Francisco Giants to win the World Series. This is a team that are never ever fancied but have won 2 World Series in the last 4 years! They have kept all their star pitchers, Cain, Lincecum etc.. and their main bats, Posey, Panda, Pence and have added another Slugger in Mike Morse who if fit could add the hits the Giants solid defence needed last year (baseball fans will know the Giants have always been a pitching team since Bonds). Anyway just thought of flag it up. The Giants will reach the wildcard game at least so at 25/1 you get some regular season long moneys worth that you could trade with later in the season. Honestly 25/1 for the SF Giants is like 25/1 on Real Madrid to win the Champions League. Yes there are better teams but you can’t ignore the fact they have a chance.
Sorry yes as singles appreciate anybody’s help
Gbj, what did u get on Luton -1?
Hitman if you’re looking for a big hitter single like Dermot then I put up Indiana (10-33) as my most confident pick. If a bit more speculative then maybe try the player per. as singles or take the big hitters like Miami and the Clips on the handicap.
Miami and Orlando over 2oo? Or under thanks for your time
I know everybody is waiting for my nba tips but thet are in the old thread and im now on my tab ans can copy paste them here, sorry :)
Heard soneone put 4500 on portland over 213
Is ask Jef for help in that one…
Yeah im not doing anythingwith, just watch and remeber who said it
And what i said about my tips is a joke of course ;)
Abbas I’m into UFC. Got to say I’m a big silva fan gutted about the leg break. Was really looking forward to the Silva v weidman fight and was gutted when that happened.
Big fan of bones jones aswell.
I saw that one Abbas, a horror break
Deandre what about John Jones big toe in the Gustafson fight not as bad as the leg break but not a pretty sight.
sonnen-fight.
not-gustaffson
Don’t know why I thought you were Abbas, haha…I need to Kay off the paint thinner! Yeah that was nasty as hell.
Haha Abbas Leon looks familiar after a few.
Must admit I never backed on NBA or even watched it but since I been following your tips I find myself not been able to turn it off.
Picked a 7fold yesterday getting all of tbe nba games in at about 12/1. Lot of short priced favourites today so after yesterdays success having a go at a 9fold accumulator on all the nba games today!
Pacers
Nets
Timberwolves
Heat -7.5
Wizards -5.5
Trailblazers
Rockets
Clippers -4
Cavaliers +14.5
On your treble DeAndre!
It’s worth a fiver Mike :) Also went big on DeAndre’s player performances
Aye Mike why not, cheeky fiver on.
Good luck guys.
GB which of your pics do you feel are best. Or which do u feel are more risky.
Wow pressure is on! Think I got around 11/1 for it
Same to u Deandre do u feel any from your treble could be risky
No, if I’m honest but the Kings did just screw me so you know irony/karma all that good stuff could do it :-D
Ok cheers
Would you fancy BKN nets race to 20 1st quarter.
Mike, I went for your 9 fold as 7 folds 8 folds and accy. 6/9 are in, other 3 all looking possible…
Fingers crossed hey, looking possible at the moment – got 80 on it so will be stoked if it comes in!
Good luck lads
What a tip Mike W, just back in so wasn’t in it…Cleveland snuck in by 0.5pts…an absolute peach :-D
boom! 7fold @ 12/1 yesterday and a 9fold @ 11/1 today, great weekend with the nba!
Yeah great tippin mike had a decent win on your multi. Thanks once again to Deandre for the winning treble.great day on the nba.cheers men
That acca when I placed it was 80 on for a return of 909, somehow I ended up getting nearly 1200 back with bet365, any clue why?
lot of bookies givin bonus for acca’s
Mike, over paid you by accident. Can you send the balance to swany please? he will return it to them :)
trying to get you to throw your money away on big accas to get the bonus then i guess. cheers just couldn’t find any promotion stuff on bet365 site about it.
DeAndre”””DEMIGOD”””” thanks again
Deandre, you’re such a genius
Thx for the moneyline tip deandre, that mostly covered my own terrible picks :)
Top pick yet again tripled my winnings last Night thanks allot guys keep up the amazing tips
Thanks again DeAndre!
Mogge, gisteren kon ik wel een spelers afdeling vinden bij unibet, ergens bovenin, weet niet of dat alleen zaterdags geldt.
Eh ?
hehe morning swany, was talking to my fellow dutchman about the player performance bets at unibet :)
Oh I see,dank je
Morning swany, all is well in the world today :)
Morning lads howzagoesza
I can see a very very profitable day ahead today swany.
Hope so raal,got a good vibe
Mogge, yesterday I was able to find a player’s department at Unibet, somewhere at the top, do not know if that is true only on Saturdays. ;) hope that is close?
Actually thats pretty damn close…99%, well done and good luck today :)
Brilliant treble as usual deandre!
OMG what a night on the nba!! Had my usual couple of trebles including yours DeAndre and my own and both came in.
Also did a speculative 9 fold before bed and thought chances were slim so just placed £3 on it. Well that £3 is £1200 this morning :). And with the other trebles it was a total of £1600 from £23 stake.
I do love the NBA:)
That was a great win stueyd pity you had not put them up as DeAndre did for you then we might all have had a chance at your winning bet. But good luck to you.
Thanks Tickety will be posting them up in future. Look out for tonight’s
Forgot to say that 9 fold was all half time full time and have never bet that way before. Will certainly be doing that again :)
well done stueyd!
Thanks Oak!
deandre, thanks for nets + wolves, and the nets and wizards UNDERS. very good job.
Good morning DeAndre normal service resumed with a money line treble thanks mate you deserve a MWNBAT(member wining NBA trebles ).
This is why we love you De Andre we are waking up to profit once again! And unreal stueyd could of put your tips up haha ;) well done mate!!
let me all hear you say ‘Hallelujah’,come on ‘hallelujah’ praise the good lord for giving us NBA, DeAndre and Stueyd ;)
Thanks Oak. Nice translation raal :). And mogge is morning.
Thanks Mr Orange ;)
hallelujah!
Hallelujah for DeAndre and his wonderful picks. :)
Many thanks
RUGBY TIME
Newcastle Falcons – Leicester Tigers: AVIVA Premirship
Guests have won the last 7 h2h matches, with the last win for the Falcons in 2009. With some medical problems and only 3 wins in 15 matches, I do not see how Newcastle could do something today, so go on Leicester for victory.
Warrington Wolves – Hull FC Super League
The last three matches between the two teams brought each time a try to Joel Monaghan. Today I see him scoring again, especially if you watch the defense of guests – 68 points received in two matches.
Leicester Tigers @1.28 –
Joel Monaghan (Warrington Wolves) to enroll oricand @1.50
Final odds: 1.92
Leicester Tigers @1.28
Joel Monaghan (Warrington Wolves) anytime scorer @1.50
Final odds: 1.92
Morning all! :c)
Raal what are you backing on this fine Sinday?
Or Sunday! Freudulant slips perhaps?! Haha
Morning Penguins old chap ;) I am studying at present to decide where to invest my shilling wisely. Have you any choices as where to invest Penguins Pot of Gold?
Great tipping again DeAndre, unfortunately I was on the wrong one again. Excellent Mike, wish I put more on it now haha oh and Stueyd, you need to start tipping mate :)
Morning Rusty ;)
G’day
DeAndre, fantastic tips as always mate :)
Mike W, nice work on those and thank you for sharing it with the community :)
I see a lot of NBA covering and as my favorite hockey side since the 90s (with a bit of help from Hollywood) are back on the ice, The Ducks have started playing and I’ve started digging in. Not as predictable as the NBA, but NHL is just as fun. I’m currently seeing lots of value in the odds. I think the NHL sides lack of match practice is being blown out of proportion. I’ll have my picks in a bit :)
* Rating out of 5 on my pick confidence.
NHL Money Line:
VAN Canucks (5/7) *****
ANA Ducks (1/2) *****
NY Islanders (4/6) ****
COL Avalanche (4/6) ***
10 Returns 72
It’s all a risk, but if you are on Bet365 and you don’t feel like taking the extra risk on my lower rated picks, I believe you can combine NBA and NBL as part of the Parlay Bonus or we can take faith together :)
brilliant tips yesterday 1a1n on the NHL many thanks!!
WELCOME HOME RUSTY WEVE MISSED U!!!
GONNA GET ON UR NHL TODAY MATE THANKS FOR SPREADING THE LUV!!
Btw gbjefr, noticed your overs/unders tips (all caps and bald, difficult not to :D ) you got 1 out of 2 days but I think you pushed it a bit too far yesterday and that’s what flew you over. For the odds they were at I would have gone for a safe Under 218 4/6 for the Portland game. The Blazers have been keeping teams under 100 like fashion lately.
gbjefr you scare me :(
1a1n, what’s your take on my NHL selection? :)
Thanks Gb!! 2 in 2 days so hopefully we can get this to be a regular occurrence! I hope someone else was on the treble as well? I’ll take a look at tonight’s soon and try get it up!
Lol I see oak I think our us and other Sports thread needs to have a bit more attention than its getting,considering success rate that were having I would say De Andre alones stats have overtaken John B no disrespect to him !
Rusty out of your picks id strongly agree with Ducks and probably Avs. But coming out of the break and in fact actually the last 10-15 games the Nucks have stunk! They’ve been awful so I’m not too confident in backing them anytime soon and the islanders/panthers game is a toss up as they’re as bad as each other! And Haominic is suspended so that’s a big loss!
YEAH RUSTY! IN REGARDS PORTLAND GAME I WOULD OF PREFFERED OVER 201/202 BUT WOULD OF STILL LOSSED BUT I DID FANCY BETWEEN 210-220 SO MISREAD THAT 1 !
1A1N ILL BE LOOKING OUT FOR UR TIPS TODAY DEFINATELY BE ON THEM LOOKING TO COMBINE SOME NHL/NBA FOR PARLEY BONUS CANT C A DOWNSIDE TO IT?
Just a reminder everyone some early starts in NBA tonight?
Ok so had a look and come up with another treble :) I’ll keep this post short. So the treble is as followed:
St. Louis @ 7/10
Anaheim @ 5/11
Colorado @ 4/6
Treble pays 3.12/1
I like the treble again, Colorado is the riskier one out of the three so if your looking for shorter odds feel free to drop them and make it a double!
Good luck all
Usually The Olympic return is similar to the NBA All-Star break return for the NHL. It’s a good opportunity for The Canucks – who are now in full strength with the return of Captain Hank – to show old flair and form on home ice and I just don’t think Senators are good enough to hold them off as aren’t Panters to hold off Islanders with or without youngster Hamonic* ;)
Is that nhl?
Indeed they are Penguin Knight.
St. Louis = STL Blues
Anaheim = ANA Ducks
Colorado = COL Avalanche
For your bookie :)
Fantastic tipping guys I don’t bet large but am enjoying following your tips long may it continue this site just keeps getting better and better looking forward to todays offerings
1n1a, at least you fully agree with two picks and have even included them in your own treble :)
Oops! I’ve bet money line 3 way as opposed to money line!
Dang!
Waiting on the NBA tips by our man DeAndre and posse to mesh with my own and then I’m off to bed, I’ve had 4 hours sleep in 72 for anybody wondering where I was haha :)
RUST I GOT A COUPLE OF OVERS NBA BUT WAITING FOR LATER FOR ODDS TO GO UP IN OTHER GAMES
SO FAR
GOLDEN STATE @ TORONTO OVER 195 10/21
UTAH @ INDIANA OVER 186 2/3
HOPING TO STICK 4 TIMER UP !!
SO GIVE ME COUPLE HOURS THE NEXT 2 WILL BE UP ASWELL
RUSTY WOT UR THOUGHTS ON THESE TWO??
DeAndre, time to get up ;)
raaljaca, do you have another lullaby for me?
By the way, did you notice johnb join us on here and state “I’m leaving NBA to DeAndre and Raaljaca” did he mix somebody up there or do you tip NBA and I just don’t see them? haha :)
Rusty, Johnb meant you. I haven’t a clue about NBA and just follow what you guys post! Had 4/6 trebles up from DeAndre now and I am applying to become his bytch ;)
Lullaby for Rusty :)
Goodnight my angel, time to close your eyes
And save these questions for another day
I think I know what you’ve been asking me
I think you know what I’ve been trying to say
I promised I would never leave you
Then you should always know
Wherever you may go, no matter where you are
I never will be far away
Goodnight my angel, now it’s time to sleep
And still so many things I want to say
Remember all the songs you sang for me
When we went sailing on an emerald bay
And like a boat out on the ocean
I’m rocking you to sleep
The water’s dark and deep, inside this ancient heart
You’ll always be a part of me
Goodnight my angel, now it’s time to dream
And dream how wonderful your life will be
Someday your child may cry, and if you sing this lullaby
Then in your heart there will always be a part of me
Someday we’ll all be gone
But lullabies go on and on
They never die
That’s how you and I will be
Can’t believe I bet money line 3 way! What a donut! Haha
Penguin if its any consolation I backed DeAndre’s treble last night on the money line for two and race to 20 for third by mistake and guess what I lost – I am a bigger donut than you, also was on the shots last night and never made it home and the four tipsters I follow all had winners so that would have been a very nice win yankee payout also missed :(
Speaking of meshing, I think we have a job trend going on here. DeAndre covering NBA Money Line and Player Per., gbjefr handling NBA Overs/Unders since he is so willing and did well the first day, 1n1a covering NHL and I’ll focus back on Race to 20 Points so then we’ll all have more time on our hands.
I’m not sure you guys are crazy like I am, but I re-watch the first quarter replays of every listed NBA team on the card then look at past stats further back to check if my thoughts and knowledge correlate etc. and then finally I move to odds to make my picks :)
I think today I’m gonna be adventurous and mash together the two trebles of DeAndre and 1a1n :)
Somebody phone DeAndre up and tell him that I miss him and that I’m waiting for him :)
I never thought I’d be waiting for DeAndre, usually it’s the other way around :)
Cheers guys (sorry Adam, wrong one!) I was back playing poker last night so I’m ready for nightshift this week…I’ll put up some tips later, still waiting for odds and the like…RUSTYS BACK! We thought you died a jelly fish related death! :-)
Hello DeAndre. Jelly fish related death!? Haha. You’re so bad :)
Heyas deandre
Do you think it’s worth me contacting bet 365 to see if they’ll cancel my bet? Placed it as a moneyline 3 way instead of just a moneyline
Or should I just leave it and hope for the best? Haha
If you do want it voided I have done something similar with them
Ask them to void it Penguins and put on what you intended to do, best way in my opinion. Just mention my name and they will be very helpful :)
Raal, did you at one point sue Bet365 and get paid out? :)
Honda, no I just turned up at their door and gave a menacing look at which point they gave me all their cash, car keys, watches and packed lunches :)
Haha, not sure why put when I read packed lunches it made me hungry! Off to make bacon butties :) Who wants one?
I THINK DEANDRE TREB GONNA READ SOMETHING LIKE SAN ANOTONIO/GLODEN STATE/PHOENIX
56 in the queue? Ouch
I’ll take 4!
2 please honda.
Honda – Sure thing! Why not?!
With DeAndre’s request of 4 I’m not sure my George Forman grill can handle this :D
Anyway, here’s my RT20 treble. The first two selections are completely against the odds and in no way a reflection on the end game winners.
NBA Race to 20 Points treble:
ATL Hawks 31/20
TOR Raptors 10/11
OKC Thunder 5/11
10 Returns 60
Good luck :)
Oops, I mean 10 Returns 71 ;)
Ketchup or brown sauce lads? OR salsa!?
Good morning, good afternoon and good night :)
DeAndre I may not wake up in time to place your picks and that hurts me, but good luck anyway :)
Still waiting in live chat!
Night Rusty!
PenguinsJames, make sure to write what you’re going to say in notepad while waiting and be punctual. If they refuse to cancel the mistake, I would contact Mr. F under ‘Got A Gripe’ as that is not fair.
Lastly, if either of my 152/25 NBA Race to 20 Points treble or NHL picks comes through, I want you all to spam my name in caps. Cheers :P
Am I the only one here watching Ding v O’Sullivan in the snooker??
Will do, Rusty! :c)
Thank you!
If you’re using a George Foreman, I’ll just replace the drip tray by sticking my head under…luvvly jubbly!
DeAndre you madhead :) Ok 4 for Deandre, 2 for Raal, and 2 for penguins as he’s waiting in a queue. 2 for myself and just done them all with brown sauce :D
Voided :)
Now what to invest this 7£ on!
I may wait for deandre nba and combine with yours rusty
Guys and De Andre, any tips for today basketball ?
Aye rusty, it’s only a matter of time before the Nucks are back to old ways! They’re running out of time for a deep playoff push IMO with the likes of Sedins and bobby Lou ageing. They probably are ready to go tonight so fingers crossed mate!
Big big thanks deandre and gbj great work guys, just woke up lol great night guys, thanks again
Lol, abbas you’re so full of it. Only DeAndre had a winner last night.
raaljaca, come on I was not trying to be mean, why call me names now? :)
I’m sorry. No harm meant :(
I’m just an observer who tells it like it is. Thank you DeAndre among others for your continued great tips and thank you to all who put up their thoughts on games.
also raaljaca, Kobe = Kobe Bryant. What are you doing on this article if you don’t know who that US sporting legend is? :P
Kobe, you started all this with a dig at abbas which was unnecessary. Your conversation with raaljaca it never happened. OK.
Oscars 2014
The Eight Interesting Categories in Detail.
I recently read an article that said this year’s Oscars are among the most competitive ever. Obviously not written by a betting man. There are 24 categories and in nine of them the favourite is 1/16 or shorter with several being 1/50. There are a further 7 categories with a favourite that is 1/4 or shorter. Of these 16 categories I can only think that maybe Gravity will get beaten at around 1/4 in the Best Original Score. Alexandre Desplat has been nominated six times before and has lost 5 times in the last seven years. I may have a very small bet on him winning for Philomena at around 16/1. I also note there has been some money for the movie Her in this category at around 5/1. Excluding that one category I think 16 favourites will win including the favourites in almost all of the main categories. I’ll go through the eight interesting categories for you now.
Costume Design
The Great Gatsby was a movie people talked about as a potential early Oscar candidate last year. The movie was pushed back and it became an early front-runner for this year’s Oscars. It has a great chance in this category where it is the 1/4 favourite. With 12-Years a Slave at 12/1 and the other two films 100/1 this is essentially a 2-horse race against American Hustle which is 4/1 to win. The latter movie is much loved by all and has 10 nominations. The problem is there don’t seem to be too many categories where the Academy can actually give them an Oscar. If they don’t win for Original Screenplay this is basically their only shout.
The glitzy disco outfits, the way that The Great Gatsby has struggled to sustain a challenge in the Oscar race, the general love for American Hustle and the fact that it may not win any other awards makes me think many members may slip in a sympathy vote here.
For in-running Oscar bettors there are related contingency implications here. Some would say if Gatsby wins this they should immediately shorten for Production Design. That would mean American Hustle losing here and you could argue that makes them more likely to win Original Screenplay.
4/1 American Hustle looks a great bet to me. I would struggle to make it bigger than 9/4.
Documentary Feature
Since last year the method of voting for short films has changed. It used to be that a small selection of Academy members would be invited to watch the nominations at a live theatre. Only those people would get to actually vote for those movies.
Since last year DVDs are posted out to all members and nobody can really tell now if they watch the movies. Despite that they all have a vote. This means that populist, small screen, well publicised, English-language movies do much better than obscure, foreign, better in the cinema movies with tough subjects produced by companies with less budget for promotions.
Ignoring the two 100/1 chances we have a 3-horse race here. The Square won the Director’s Guild of America and the International Documentary Award. It’s about the situation in Egypt. It’s 8/1 with the bookies. The Act of Killing has won the Gotham Award, the European Film Award and the Bafta Award for best documentary. It’s hard to watch and it’s about death squads in Indonesia. This one is 4/6, although some people are 4/9. It seems a bit short to me.
20 Feet from Stardom is all about back-up singers. Nice and light and a subject the Academy members can grasp. Even if they can’t be bothered to watch the films they may well of heard about this one which has done well at the box-office and been heavily campaigned for by Harvey Weinstein.
20 Feet from Stardom has gone from 5/2 into 6/4 in the last 12 hours and while I can see the angle I shall be trying to lay the favourite at around 4/6 and back The Square at around 10/1 on Betfair.
Editing
The winner of this one often gets the Best Film and if Gravity fails to win at 4/7 then it may be in trouble and drift from 9/2 for the Best Picture. This one looks like another 2-horse race and the 2nd runner here is Captain Phillips.
Christopher Rouse won in 2007 for another Paul Greengrass film The Bourne Identity and he has been well backed here from 5/2 into 13/8. He won the American Cinema Editors awards in the Dramatic Film category which was considered an upset versus Gravity. 9 out of the last 10 ACE winners have gone on to pick up the Oscar.
You could argue that the style of Captain Phillips really highlights and shows off the editing and the move in the betting here looks pretty sensible, 5/2 was definitely a big price. At 6/4 though I think I’ll leave it alone making it a no-bet category for me.
Foreign Language
There are 3 realistic contenders in this category. The Great Beauty is the favourite at around 2/9. It’s an Italian film with a strong Fellini influence that the Academy should go for and it won the Golden Globe. It’s rivals are The Hunt a Danish film which is much smaller and more intimate than the other two. It may benefit therefore from being watched at home after it comes in the post. Again I’m assuming the members make the effort to watch. The Broken Circle Breakdown is around 10/1 and it’s from Belgium. One of these is about child molestation and the other cancer. Maybe they’ll just give it to the favourite which is actually showing in cinemas in the US.
If I had a bet it might be The Hunt at around 9/2 but probably no bet.
Live Action Short
Again here the favourite is going to benefit massively by being populist. Everyone loves Martin Freeman from The Office who stars in The Voorman Problem. It’s an English-Language movie and it’s attracted some box-office attention. All the other movies in this category have subtitles, the last seven winners here have all been in English.
Despite all that I have found a bet.
Helium is a lovely little Danish film about a hospital worker and a dying boy. Looking at the way the market has moved over the last few weeks this is really the only danger to the favourite. I’m amazed that the price is as big as 9/2 with William Hill right now, Ladbrokes were 6/1 earlier today but they seem to have suspended the market for some reason…ok, alright it was me.
I couldn’t make Helium any bigger than 11/4, so I must have a bet at 9/2, but I am going to save my stake by backing the favourite which has drifted to a tasty 11/10 on Betfair.
Original Screenplay
Of the more mainstream categories this is the most open. It is effectively a 2-way go between Her and American Hustle. I can see a good case for both and I reckon it is pretty much a coin-flip. The prices are 10/11 and 6/5 which is also quite close to a coin-flip so I won’t be having a bet.
Production Design
This is the 2nd chance for The Great Gatsby to win an Oscar. If the movie has already won the statuette for costume design then in-running players may expect to see the film shorten up a lot in the betting here. If the movie loses that one to American Hustle though, (let’s hope it does), then it can still win a consolation here. Gravity may have pretty much swept the board by the time we get to this award and I could see a big shortening from 3/1 that film and a big drift from the favourite. If that was to happen I may back TGG at around evens. For now I’m not having a bet.
Supporting Actress
Of all the categories talked about as the”main” Oscars this is the only really interesting betting heats. Lupito Nyongo is a favourite at 4/6 and Jennifer Lawrence is the only other real contender at 5/4.
The question we have to ask ourselves is whether the Academy will give an award to the 23-year old Lawrence just a year after they already did. She has not been campaogning and she didn’t show up at the BAFTAs which she won.
Nyongo has shown up to everything, done countless interviews and put in an outstanding performance in 12 Years a Slave.
I could back Nyongo at evens and would think it’s a decent bet but at 4/6 I’ll just leave it thanks
NEO – What a write up and thank you
Neo, that’s the coolest write up I have ever read. It’s not a sport but interesting to bettors nonetheless so thank you.
Sorry guys, Paddy don’t have odds yet for a couple of games, Jef, that’s definitely a possibility
Kobe I followed both and mixed and matched, 1 coupon deandre treble with Indiana over, cleveland and orlando ( overs) anyway win or lose every1 deserves credit, if gbj never did his overs I wouldnt of picked some of them, so again thanks all and looking forward to tonight, raal my man how are you?
Hey abbas. I am great thank you, busy Saturday night in Chip Land? ;)
Can’t we all just get along? :-)
The Black Mamba would never befriend a Hibee!
Correct DeAndre, you have your principles and we respect you for that, and your trifle eating abilities :)
Offensive? Where is the offence in short ar*sed, fatty or twat? You have taken my comments the wrong way I think :)
Spread the love :)
We could all wrestle? ;)
DeAndre thank you for last night treble.Nice way to start the day.More money in the account :).
The more I think about it, there’s another little bet I fancy, it’s in the Phoenix/St Louis game and it’s the home team (Phoenix) to have under 1 goal at 9/1! Ryan Miller is starting for the Blues after being traded yesterday with Steve Ott who is a solid checking forward.
A similar thing happened last season when Ben Bishop was traded to the lightening and the next day had a shut out!
Obviously shut outs are pretty rare in ice hockey so it’s a gamble but at small stake I think it could be worth it!
Did I hear wrestle lmao
said yesterday ss real madrid be far to strong may be 3 1 real madrid
I already apologized to abbas and I will say it again. I am sorry abbas, I meant no harm with my initial post. I don’t see where I said anything demeaning to DeAndre though, totally the opposite I respect him. Not sure where that derived from and if by Jambos you’re referring to your team then sure, I’m sorry but it was well found after your unnecessary and offensive name-calling. I’m not here to stir things up. It’s just not cool to be called all these things all because you felt I was being ‘rude’ to your ‘friend’ abbas.
You’re tearing this family apart !!! Hahahaha…this is fun :-D
DeAndre, you are working tonight so please try to compose yourself and stop letting it upset you like that :) :) Still think we should all wrestle then afterwards discuss the days events over a pint of paint thinner :)
kobe
i’m not sure if you have read full thread
mike put up a winning ninefold last night and the ice hockey guy put up a winning treble
jeff , de andre and rusty have also had several winning bets recently and if you had followed them you would be well ahead
john b also put up a great rugby league winning bet on friday night
dave, my post was not related to who or how many lost dude, I’m aware of the success here. Lots of great tips, I’m one of the people who has been suggesting a dedicated thread actually :) thank you for approaching it in a friendly manner though.
I just found it funny how the congratulations were sent the wrong way so I responded with sarcasm as well taking the later opportunity to thank DeAndre for the winner last night.
However, I find it unbelievable to be called rude yet be on the receiving end of all the offensive slurs. How can you call someone all those names and not expect a rise. Fair? I don’t think so. Anyway, I think this has all gone the wrong with a wee bit of misunderstanding around the place, so I’m going to send out my apologies once again.
Kobe, theres no name calling, thats it over. This site has very good record for allowing conversations to flow, however until registration is brought in there will continue to be idiots rubbing people up and shouting from their rooftops.
Kobe, just leave it. It’s clogging up a good thread and no one’s bothered now.
Kobe for all the love in the world just please go away quietly :)
Apology accepted and I in return offer my sincere apologies for anything I may have said that you have taken out of context. Not sure I like the ‘friend’ and ‘rude’ bit but hey ho ;)
any chance you could stick up a new thread paul
think it could be a busy night with the nba games starting early on a sunday
Well Mr Fixit, I do apologize to you as well for having to deal with this.
Fresh start.
Good luck on all the bets tonight :)

:) I’d like to see Mike W on a mega-fold tip too. If he gets 3/3 that would be interesting. Between all the tips posted and my own NHL + my insanely against-the-odds Race to 20 treble, I’m expecting good returns :D
Hi does anyone know if deandre has posted nba tips for tonight I know they sometimes get put up on different thread
scroll up minty, they are there ↑
minty, they’ll be on this thread if he has as this was put up last night.
minty, will you be watching all the games simaltaneously as usual? :) I found a way to watch all the NBA and NHL fixtures spread perfectly across the same screen. Not sure which to pick the audio for though :)
My NAP today was an actual bedtime nap!! Made it in time for the NBA tips and to watch the second half of the Madrid derby ;)
Cheers DeAndre,
gbjefr, nice overs/unders mate, I’ll be on the first three selections definitely but the most I’m worried about is Charlotte @ Oklahoma City. I get the vibe it’ll most likely be 190-200-ish so a bit too close for comfort. Including the ugly 85 to 89 christmas clash, 12/14 of the meeting between these two have gone under 200 on game totals and I was expecting a defensive clash again with Thunder breaking a heavy distance ATS. What do you think of that? Good luck though. I’m on it a bit, so hope they play open and it comes through :)
Thanks Mr F and Oak
An early rise Rusty?
DeAndre, yeah bud. Needed a nap. My football team is playing and it’s the derby. Can’t miss it :) I’ll be watching the NBA and NHL games as well, but I have a feeling I’ll be falling asleep haha. I rarely ever miss Atletico matches or Champions League but I missed the first half of this one which sucks a bit.
Who is Jeff and what are his picks???
Hi rusty watching the early Knicks game on bt sport and yes will have tablet and phone onlol
Rusty how do you get them all on same screen ? Or is it too long winded
minty, I open small window sizes of every single stream, resize them so only the match window is screening then place them each from corner to corner, side to side. Might require a decent connection.
De Andre couple questions for you ,, what online bookie you use for player performance I have Ladbrokes but they do not do the player performance,, also would uh you say your money line tips are a higher success rate than the players if so by how much roughly ?
GAA result
Dublin v Cork o32.5 points 4/5 win
Tyrone win 4/6 win
Mayo v Kerry o29.5 points 10/11 win
Nice one if you followed it gbjefr
Benteke in, come on ronaldo for another single and the double
No massive 9 fold from Mike tonight?
Let’s see if I can have more success tonight and here are my tips
6 fold alternative spread
Bulls -4
Warriors +1
Magic +5
Pacers -6.5
Thunder -4
Suns -6
Pays just over 10/1
This is my ht ft bet
Bulls bulls
Raptors warriors
Magic magic
Pacers pacer
Thunder thunder
Suns suns
Pays Just over 80/1
Sorry correction it’s Magic -5
Sorry again!! On the ht ft also add Spurs spurs
Cool appreciate that rusty
Paddy minty
Thanks deandre ,, what do you reckon on stats players and money line where you have more success?
Probably moneyline not really been keeping track
Cam on hope a few looked at it, nice spending money for tonight
What bookie takes bets on player performance will hill don’t
Another 1
Vidal, anytime 12/5
Ibrahimovic, 2+ 5/2
DoublE pays 11.5/1
abbas, if you’re into scorers. thechief nailed some 2/1+ picks today and there’s a pick still To Run with late adopters joining in on the last page of the Top Tips thread. Lots of fun :D
Max Win Double for me Monday
NBA 12-05am San Antonio Spurs @ 2/5
with Chesterfield Monday eve @ 4/6 general
Ladbrokes as good a price as anywhere.
nascar – kevin harvick 9/1
Anyone know which bookie does the alternative spread bets ,, Ladbrokes getting worse ,,they only do singles on race to 20 points and do not offer player performance and do not do alternative spread handicap !!!! Time I closed account and move my money I think !!!
Bet365 does alternative spread counts
bet365 i think
2 out of 4 yesterday. My main pick let me down but none the less it’s on to Today.
Louisiana Tech @ UAB – 9:00pm
LA Tech have been playing well recently. They’re 23-6 on the Season, playing against 18-10 UAB side who have struggled against inferior teams as of late. When I look at College Games, it’s hard to judge Home Form and Away Form as often, teams have easier schedules than the other. This is why I tend to judge performances on Highlights or Full Games I’ve seen and also Conference Records. LA Tech are 11-3 in Conference Games. UAB are 7-7. Based on recent performances, LA Tech should pick up another win on the Road today.
The Spread for this one started at -3.5 in favor of LA Tech, but has already been backed and pushed out to -5.5. For this one though, I’m sticking to the Moneyline even though it’s a bit short.
Louisiana Tech ML @5/12
To give it some more value, I’m adding in the Golden State Warriors to make it a double. DeAndre already included them in his selections and I like the look of them too. Golden State have been playing well and Toronto is coming off a Triple Overtime loss to Washington. They may be more rested than Golden State but I still think the Warriors can pick up the Win in Toronto.
Louisiana Tech ML & Golden State Warriors ML
Double pays just over Evens
Just noticed im late…
Ive gotten on the remaining three :)
What are the nhl tips tonight gentlemen? Struggling to find them in amongst the hundreds of comments as my phone is v poor! Follow this thread religously however don’t comment but thanks deandre rusty and co, if mr f made a donation button for you lot id definitely send a few £ your way too!!
frago, the donation button pays for the site costs so it’s for everyone – when changes are made we’ll look to put up several donation buttons and see if we can direct specific donations to specific people.
Rust, I love the chief, been a big follower for some time, Chris guy great at finding big bets as well
Abbas got on ur double but dont think vidal is even on the bench?
GO JIMMER GO! Haha
No sweat on the bulls Deandre that’s one in the back of the net!!!
Hope all the others come in! I’m on one big roll up! NFL and overs and nba
hi all, does any1 kno deandre basetball tips for tonight cant seem to find them
NHL penguin NFL not until September unfortunately
They’re on this thread you’re in the right place, you’ve missed the first leg though!
come on raptors! race to 20!
Ah yes! :c) here’s hoping! I’ve been brave and just rolled them all into the one bet!
oh penguin…in a system i hope?
dammit
hmm another one in the cordon sanitaire, once you criticise someone [cooldude] about his interactions with trolls and you become a pariah amongst the clan, really nice…
Okay mr f, look forward to the progression of an already brilliant site. Cheers again.
Oak: Nope! Just in an accumulator!
well, if you also put the race to 20 in them, i’m afraid its done already
Cmon Warriors!!
Need the Warriors to turn this around
Stueyd, the most dodgiest one in your ht/ft, raptors-warriors, is looking good so far!
good start to 3rd quarter 59-59 now
Very late I know but big thanks to Mike for sharing the 9 fold pick yesterday. A lovely surprise to wake up to today!
Guys I missed something can’t find Chicago Bulls on 365 ,?
newbie it was an early start – that game is over
Cannot believe what these clowns look like they have done!
Unbelievable.
testing
Shame on the Warriors but a good game and the better team won
Couldn’t watch it but sounded like the ‘Dubs never came to the party tonight…dropped the ball on that one, here’s hoping the player per. can get us back on track.
Jef 2/4 so far looking good ;-)
I think a bit into the 4th quarter the ball was very much in their court but they threw it away…I think…I don’t now much at all about b-ball :)
Hello DeAndre. Im new to betting. Where do i go to place a player performance bet on b365? Sorry to be a nuisance. Btw i think what all you guys do on this site is really great :-)
I think its only available on Paddy Power mate :) And the tips on here are second to none :)
Cheers Honda…that explains why i couldnt find it.
Yep, Golden State were leading by as much as 5 points in 4th, but then they started missing long range 3 pointers and turning the ball over as the ball rebounded. Also Stephen curry done a few clangers and had about 3 personal turnovers. It also didn’t help that Raptor’s Derozman suddenly got hot shooting 3 pointers
And Jefs overs by 1 point….sad face :-(
Oh well there’s always tomorrow!
George misses second of 2 freethrows with seconds left on 22 personal pointstp bus the player performance early doors, one of those nights.
*to bust
George on 9/9 free throws, just needs to nail his second one with 13 seconds remaining, misses! Hopefully Durant doesn’t hit enough points, because Teague is well on his way already. Don’t want the treble to be burst by just 1 point. Unlucky DeAndre mate
Thanks for the tips fellas. Wasnt to be today. No complaints though cantwin em all :-)
Just found out that one of the Dubs better players during this stretch, Jermaine O’Neal, lost his passport so couldn’t play haha…that’s when you know it’s not meant to be :-)
Have a heart fellas
I feel so relieved that I changed Jeff’s Pacers bet to over 183. Don’t know what happened in that game as my comp shut down with two mins to go so thought It was lost with the amount of points still needed.
Unlucky to the usual high-class tippers, no doubt you’ll be back to your winning ways very very soon and please don’t begrudge me for this post as I almost always pick the acc that loses
Have a heart guys
Can’t begrudge bookie bashing, that’s why we’re here ;-)
Never in doubt 1a1n, much needed win for the thread tonight, cheers :-)
DeAndre, one of the best 4th quarter teams loses in the 4th quarter to be the let down. No stress.
Jef, yours was outdone by just a point. Welcome to the club? The 1 point blow was my bane the other day :( Unlucky
Me, I just simply failed today. I’m so sorry. I think it was due though as I was getting really grand returns from other sports threads including 11/1 picks on football if you noticed.
1a1n, thanks for saving it with a win tonight :)
Thanks 1a1n for the nhl treble. Got there in the end :-) . I also did a cheeky 6 way action with 3 nhl teams and the last 3 nba games.cheers again
Already had a look and Paddy had the games I wanted priced up so I don’t see any point in waiting…

Thanks again guys for your help,unlucky DeAndre a near miss,you’re still the Demi Moore man!
Nice one Swany, you can rehire the window cleaners now!
I will give them a call when I wake up again DeAndre,off back to bed,see you later.
No problem Rusty. All the home teams won today and Durant looks like he’s comfortable with Westbrook again (thank f*ck).
Wanted to ask you and anyone else with an opinion on the matter…
Who do you see coming out of the East, West, and who’s going to win the Finals???
DeAndre, glad you asked :) I wanted to know your thoughts too, here’s my current list and I’m undecided, but as you see, theres lots of value to be had. Most Likely, Biggest Danger, Fighting Roughie.
NBA Champion – To Win Outright:
Likely: MIA Heat (2/1)
Danger: OKC Thunder (4/1)
NBA Eastern Conference Champion:
Likely: MIA Heat (10/11)
Danger: IND Pacers (21/20)
Roughie: CHI Bulls (25/1)
Western Conference Champion:
Likely: OKC Thunder (7/5)
Danger: HOU Rockets (8/1)
Roughie: LA Clippers (11/2)
great picks 1a1n. thank you
Spot on but I see the Thunder as the likely winner and the Heat as the danger.
DeAndre, definitely. I’m beginning to fear the man in the mask though :) It’s going to be an interesting finals.
Hi DeAndre no luck this morning I see tonights games on PP but I dont see the money line is it under something else?
We’re in the money!!! I’m glad the treble managed to hold out for those who were on. That’s 2 in a row so hopefully if my luck isn’t out I’ll go for the hat trick! To all the the tipsters it was an unlucky but together we shall bookie bash again tonight so keep up the hard work!
Also Unlucky rusty with the islanders and Canucks! I was wary about the picks but watching some of the games I thought you had pulled it off!
The islanders just suck with out Taveres and I guess you just can’t trust a bad team! And the Nucks have just fallen apart and look like they put 50% effort in every night which won’t win you enough games :( unlucky mate I was fist pumping every time the goals went in for us but wasn’t to be!
Thanks 1a1n put your pics in my acca.
1n1a, I know mate. Really unlucky, but honestly I can’t complain as I had a really profitable and entertaining night around the house with other sports.
For NHL, Islanders were sitting comfortably at 3 – 1 until the 3rd period blow out.
I thought Canucks had it but lost their cool after the conceding in the first. That was as good as it gets for Senators.
For NBA, considering the odds, my Race to 20 treble selections weren’t far off the call. Suns were 19-18 with Hawks ball, their shot was rebounded to Phoenix for a 3 point shot by Frye to take it to 22-18 for the Suns. Almost a 2/1 single there.
Warriors were 19-17 with Raptors ball, for about half a minute it was shot and miss until Toronto were called for traveling, Curry makes the 3 point shot and that blew out that selection.
OKC was a much more comfortable selection hitting the Race to 20 Points to 21-14. Thunderous as always :)
After GS Warriors were defeated, I went with the 2 BB games left to play and the 2 NHL left to play – WIN! Thanks guys amazing tipping…already on DeAndre’s for tonight.
Bazil I did a similar thing as I wanted to add deandres tips with my own as an extra bet but by time I got around to it the 2 games had already been played so ended up doing the other 2 only :) whoop
Also deandre, it’s getting to the stage of the season for both NBA and NHL where I like to pick a plucky outsider for the cup! I always try take a look and pick a team that’s going to make the playoffs and could cause a few waves. NHL being my main sport is ok but me not being a huge NBA fan any advice? The bulls were my gut feeling on catching a glimpse of the standing but any advice would be good!
mng guys 1st thing like to say wel played 1a1n kept our boat afloat last nite brilliant tipping sir/ deandre so close m8 wouldve been beautiful as i stuck ur tips with 1a1ns but hey ho onwards and up wards 3/4 for me losing by 2 sry guys hit the post again!!!!
Not to worry jef,very close mate.
I know this is gonna sound strange but thanks for the winners jef. Your fourfold was a winner in my book; just checked my slip again and unibet seems to have a somewhat more conservative points system it seems.
took your numbers and picked the closest to them;
indiana over 184.5
okc over 195.5
raptors over 194.5
bulls over 182.5
So i won, thx alot :)
Well done oak,Indiana was 189.5 on mine
Thats a significant gap, in the future i’m gonna make sure to always have a good look and try under the original pick if possible, if odds stay lucrative of course.
Good idea oak,mine was 365,think I checked pp,not sure
Odds on this were x 4.86
And thx 1a1n for your picks, took a small bite out of that as you said nhl is a bit of a gamble but you made it happen, thx dude!
well done 1a1n nice picks again and ul the rest of the guys soo close. keep it up :)
The beauty here is, nobody has been way off. It’s a few point rally on all selections everyday so excellent work by all :)
It is rusty,I was only beaten by 1 selection on 2 other acca’s ,you guys are amazing,thanks again.
Morning swany, morning jef, morning Rusty, morning world :)
Morning raal,great day here,bright and sunny,goin for a run on the beach
swany, on bet365 there is a alternative point selection you can scroll down to whatever points u prefer, so u dont have to bet on what they initially offering obviously the odds change accordingly
if u click on ur desired games then click on alternative game points tab ur see it there
Thanks for that jef
1A1N,RUSTY, sorry to be a pest have u looked at any NHL for later im not around for most of the day just seeing for any early prices… not to worry if not
ive got 2 overs i like but odds for other games not up yet
memphis @ washington over 185 5/9
chicago @ brooklyn over 182 4/7
ill put another 2 up later unless something special catches the eye and i change a pick
I haven’t had a good look at the odds but taking a look at the few games we have tonight is suggest going with Minnesota and Dallas! These aren’t finalised as I don’t know odds etc but as a early look for you jef
Just wanna say thanks to rusty and de Andre I didn’t read till late so missed the early tips and ised de Andre last 2 tips and the ducks from rusty woke up with a nice balance!! Cheers guys
1a1n was on your trebles last 2 nights, super stuff, thank you!
DeAndre what are your thoughts on Chicago bull away at brooklyn nets?
Nets are favorite but the bulls have best them the last 3 games (twice away)
Also bulls are on fire no?
Thanks.
Super unlucky last night guys! You don’t get any closer than that! Thanks 1a1n for your treble, thanks DeAndre for tonight’s treble and good luck everyone :) Damn Warriors :)
