Betting Matters....

The Munchies have drawn Schalke who are at 12's (with PP)

Lyon and Roma drawn together which is good for Utd, but no value in us at 2's...

Yeah - bit hasty maybe, as I see the Munchies are only mid table in Germany, despite Celtic making them look good in the CL. Anyway, we will see......

3.2 - so just over 2/1

[Alan Medic]

Was it worth all the canvassing you did around Stoke? :)

First time I've got the National winner for years. In the running with Fowler for the Masters. Stay lucky...

[????]

I had a place so broke even overall . In the golf i'm well covered as initial bets on lefty, Speith, Rose and Pieters meant I could also back Fowler last night and Rory today and be in profit on any of them (but especially Pieters :) )

[Help-Ma-Boab]

I backed the winner. Wimbledon and The Grand National. Scottish.

C'mon Tim.

There's a golf thread somewhere, but I thought I'd use this as probably most of the regulars have placed bets.

Already looking like a classic final round, Sergio would be a very popular winner...

I cashed out on Rose when Sergio went in the trees on 13th for a decent profit and then could enjoy actually watching the golf!

Wimbledon betting this year is unusually very open, Fed @ 2/1, Nadal @ 4/1, Djok @ 5/1, and Muzza @ 11/2 (Paddy Power). Since most of the Slams are won by one of the Big 4, could be worth covering several of them...

[Alan Medic]

I had an intuition that none of the big 4 would win this year and so have backed Cilic at 7/2 today. I think they went to 5 sets last year.

[red devil]

They did, Cilic was 2 sets up and had at least one match point, but Fed then stormed back to win 3-2...

[Alan Medic]

After my latest flop I decided to put a tenner on Rory @ 28/1 e.w. this morning. He's now 4/1. Won't cashout just yet though have a nice profit. Let the wind blow this afternoon!

Golf is one of those sports I consider you should never bet on. I don't know what came over me.

Should have backed the girl from Peckham!

Shame they are making such a big deal about what she's wearing.
