Away from football, but surely Tommy Fury, the boxer, 11/10 to beat Jake Paul, the YouTuber, is printing money?

I know Tommy Fury isn't very good, but he's still a pro boxer, and his career is pretty much done if he loses.

Got very lucky this week.
Had a treble on Liverpool (v Real Madrid), Blackburn (amazingly evens v Blackpool) going to Reading yesterday at fractionally under evens..

Putting the bet with bet365 was the right move as they pay out on the two higher leagues and European matches if a team goes 2-0 up regardless of the final score!!.
So yesterday I wasn't displeased when the ref blew for a penalty and Carroll picked up the ball.

The day was completed by backing Man City -2 goals v Bournemouth making the journey home last night something to enjoy.

Plymouth now 3rd favourites to go up automatically on Skybet despite being 5 points ahead of 3rd place.

Their keeper is out and they have dropped points recently, but their 13 remaining fixtures are against teams currently in 14, 6th, 5th, 24th, 21st, 20th, 15th, 12th, 8th, 23rd, 13th, 18th, 16th. That's a pretty favourable run of fixtures

8/11 so nothing exciting, but could combine it with something else maybe

I couldnt believe Jake Paul was favourite - madness. Good spot Pepe - i feared the draw at one point with those point deductions and knock down (didnt think it was a knock down) but pleased judges scored it correctly, barring the one fool.

Annoyingly, I got all 6 correct results on Super 6 this weekend, but I never put the same bet on. Think the odds were 60/1 or something.

Happened a couple of times this year, might just stick £1 on each time next season. It'll only take one fairly ok bet to cover the season.

Had:

Leicester 1 - 2 Arsenal
Leicester 0 - 1 Arsenal

West Ham 2 - 0 Notts Forest
West Ham 4 - 0 Notts Forest

Bournemouth 0 - 4 Man City
Bournemouth 1 - 4 Man City

Palace 2 - 2 Liverpool
Palace 0 - 0 Liverpool

Spurs 1 - 0 Chelsea
Spurs 2 - 0 Chelsea

Man Utd 3 - 1 Newcastle
Man Utd 2 - 0 Newcastle

I saw Fury as high as 2.68 pre fight on the Exchange yesterday but went off around 2.54. Strange old market.

Yes, thanks to Pepe for reminding me to have a bet.
As mentioned on another thread, I couldn't believe that the boxer Fury was odds against-I thought he should have been about 1/2.

Presumably it was just weight of money on Paul from his many followers.

Yeh I think that was it. Plus the conspiracy theorists who thought it was rigged for Paul to win.

Tranmere let me down for a 6-timer-there is always one isn't there?

BTW Winston , Plymouth were almost evens again for a home game v a mid-table side.
Bookies don't seem to have grasped that Plymouth are quite a good side and have won almost every home game.

Not so nailed-on tomorrow tonight, and I have no great affinity with Plymouth , but Skybet have Plymouth at 7/4 at home to Derby which feels generous again.
