Close call with the Juve one hendo


I know :lol:

I was at cricket nets on Sunday night and kept checking and as it was staying 0-0, I was getting more and more frustrated.


whats the furthest you've got one of these whats the end game or is it just bants


My personal best is 12, which is pretty poor, but I was up to ~£20*.

End game is a bit of a test. How much is too much before you chicken out and withdraw? You could go on and on and on, but you would end up staking hundreds of pounds. Just a bit of fun really.

*although this was me using SkyBet which has really poor odds for this market. Bet365 is much better.

RG30 365 in play offer Tuesday night Liverpool vs Roma


Ive been chopped to £25.

Any idea what sort of algorithm they use for this? It seems to be how regularly you bet on football, not how often you take advantage of the offer. If you do loads of accas, it seems they think they have you on board, so no point giving you the full offer?

Mate of mine been cut to a tenner another to fiver. Neither take up the offer all the time.

Not sure whether it’s done on stake factor or football turnover but I very rarely bet on football and have been £25 all year. In fairness you were the only person I knew still getting £50!

Coventry v Morecambe going to be very much in the spotlight next weekend.

Both teams need a point for play-offs/stay up. Currently 2/1 with PP. Will be evens by Saturday. Would be 1/3 in any other country.
