I thought you could make a case for Knights Choice, atleast a case it was way overpriced. I got a bit lucky, was interested in Sea King so watched its last run and thought Knights Choice was abit of an eyecatcher and it had some decent runs in June. Only small stakes but backed it 125/1 and a while later noticed it was 150/1 so had another quid each way, was a nice surprise to wake up to

I was thinking it looks a good night for draws ! But tbh I don't like betting on draws ....... it smacks a bit of not being able to make your mind up

@TrotterI find betting on draws is like betting the under. You're praying for nothing to happen in the game. It's much more fun being the optimist!

Looks a good night for away teams in the Championship, there's only Plymouth that I'd fancy at home. Small away acca. Sheffield United, Hull, Norwich, Watford around 70/1 Bet365 0.1pt win 1 point on Watford to beat Swansea, I'd make them the better team if a bit inconsistent, smashed Sheffield Wednesday 6-2 away last time so I don't know why they are 3/1 (Bet365).

3.00 Warwick: God`s Own Getaway @ 7/2 (Bet365)

Probably comes down to different factors. Perhaps focused more off court spending her cash from the last 2 years like buying a house, car etc. She is only just turned 23 so has time to rectify her deficiencies. Has plenty of power and likes to finish points fast. Players are very good defensively which cause her anxiety trying to go bigger and bigger. I cannot see her reaching top 10 unless she builds patience, fitness, and game style to manufacture points. Players have worked her game out at the moment. A very poor year but she still so young with a big body.

A bit of good fortune, as Bet Victor were paying 5 places I picked the ones that Bet Victor were showing the best prices on, this also included Takemeuptocarlow (8th at 66/1) I put the shortest of the 2 on here

4th. + £14. + £58

Took 17/10 early for de Jong (PSV), still just about a play on the exchange if you can get close to that. 18/5 Miovski in the same game. Kulenovic big for DZ at 21/10 with Paddy, got close enough on the exchange. Also 9/2 (or better) for Baturina. They're my 4 in the opening couple of games. @MCLARKE currently the (score) draw king on here! I suppose from the "fun" angle the dynamic changes as soon as one or other team scores and then you do want something to happen. From a value perspective it's like any other market, if the odds are wrong in your opinion then bet. Then there's the general principle that you're more likely find value on the things that most casual or mug punters don't want to bet on, which may apply to draws to an extent. I wouldn't place too much weight on any apparent trend in that respect. Freaky spates of (or absences of) draws in a given league tend to be just random blips that even themselves over time.

I was thinking that the other day, there seem to have been way more draws than usual in the Championship. Need to look if the stats confirm that.

Anyway I've gone for a PSV/Slovan double at 9/4 in the early kick offs and I'll see what happens there before I do anything with the English matches If I win I might just call it a day and watch those draws pile up ........ 👀

AW selection Newcastle 6.00 TRUE NATION

Great stuff. It's coming at a good time with Oddschecker getting so greedy.

to confirm what @ThunderDan9 said... From the second round onwards, the tournament will be played in a knockout format, using the following bracket: Winner Group A vs Runner-Up Group B Winner Group B vs Runner-Up Group A Winner Group C vs Runner-Up Group D Winner Group D vs Runner-Up Group C Winner Group E vs Runner-Up Group F Winner Group F vs Runner-Up Group E Winner Group G vs Runner-Up Group H Winner Group H vs Runner-Up Group G

Oddsportal @Fader

Has anyone seen how the draw comes together after the group phase? In previous years the format meant that you could meet the same opponent in the group phase, and then again in the quarter-finals. So winner of Group A would face the runner-up in Group B in the last 16, and then the winner of that tie would face either the Group A runner-up or the Group B winner in the quarter-finals. I think there was some chat about changing it so you wouldn’t meet the same opponent again until the final, but I’ve not seen any confirmation around this.

Picked out a few that look interesting for today - - Dinamo Zagreb to win 2.0 - Monaco draw no bet 1.95 - Celtic draw no bet 2.06

I agree and that's the whole point of having different types of events and a one year list etc cause personally, what I love about Darts is different winners. I don't want to be seeing the same old finals and hugely predictable short odds winners. I'll be taking Cross and Wade from the top half and the bottom I'm looking to cut 4 into 2 (Anderson, Van Den Bergh, Rock and De Decker)

A lot of negativity on the PDC social media channels about how many big names have missed out on this, I'm all for it personally. Majority of these players have had 23 chances (10 TV tournaments and 13 ET events) to meet the qualifying criteria before having to play in the qualifier for card holders, If they've not been good enough to get in them is the event really any worse off for their absence? Humphries and Littler should have no problems topping their groups. Groups B,D and H all look like minefields, any of the 4 players in each group could finish top or bottom and I don't think you'd me shocked. Will take a look at some group based bets close to the weekend, as well as the outrights.

I think pegula should win but think odds should be between 1.7 to 1.8. Also think coco has a great opportunity to win against swiatek given the fast court conditions and the swiatek 2 month absence. But I am not one to follow.

You can't beat those short priced favourites I hope @Zilzalian is taking note !

It’s the first time over the Grand National fences this season this weekend with the feature race being the 2M 5F Grand Sefton Handicap Chase and with the five day entries out tomorrow lunchtime I think there’s a bit of value to be had with the David Pipe trained King Turgeon. He’s currently 13lb out of the handicap but with a 7lb penalty for his very easy victory at Chepstow last week will be only 6lb wrong at present. That may also change if some of the top weights defect over the next two declaration stages. The six-year-old jumped superbly when winning last week over 3M 2F under Harry Cobden, coasting home to the tune of ten lengths. That was his first run since a wind operation and creeping in off of bottom weight can run a big race. He likes to front run and hopefully his slick jumping will be suited to this shorter trip on hopefully decent ground. I do know that he has schooled well over the purpose built National fences at Pipe’s base in Somerset and although this is a big step up from his last win he looks great each way value at 25/1 with MGM Bet. He’s beginning to ‘blue’ up today so I recommend an each way bet before tomorrow’s declaration stage. KING TURGEON 1 point each way @ 25/1 BetMGM 1/4 1234

Now that Oddschecker are pushing me to sign up just to compare odds (no chance) I'm looking for a free alternative. Anybody know of any good websites that scrape odds on all sports? Perhaps there's a gap in the market for Punters Lounge there

Good to see Good ole' Gasquet in his last tournament of his career doing this well tonight. He's really going for a good finish of his career in Metz where it all started. This is what he's been saving himself for last months.

Always feels like a misfire when there are 5 goals at the break in two games where you've backed 4 players to score and none of them have done so!

actually it was PSV/Dinamo that I bet on ....... not Slovan .....

Not sure I think it might have just been a case she didn't quite see out the 2m. She had seemingly the perfect trip, but the swoopers had the edge

Good question. At least wikipedia says it's the same format, so A1/B2 vs A2/B1 in the quarter finals and so on... meeting the winner of the CD bracket in the semis etc. I don't know if wikipedia is reliable.

From these three Rock makes the most appeal to me. By the way, with the short format and dangerous opponents, Bunting could easily be eliminated from the group.

3.35 Warwick: Gustoso @ 13/2 (Bet365)

in good form too and made the semi-final last year. Likely to finish 2nd in group so would play Noppert and then Humphries. My only concern is he'll never score well enough against somebody like Humphries so he will have to hope for a bad day for Luke. If Humphries doesn't get through to the final though then I think it will be Wade or Cross that look the value at the top (50/1 & 20/1) Cross has a nice draw and made the final last year. He would have Ross Smith and then Chizzy or Wright to make a QF. Bottom half is littered with potential and hard to call. I like Anderson but 10/1 is a bit skinny when he has to beat MVG, Rock or Bunting and then Littler or M.Smith JUST to make a final against probably Humphries. That takes him off my list and I'm left with De Decker (33/1), Van Den Bergh (50/1) and Rock (33/1) Rock has done well here. He lost to Wade last year on a deciding leg with a 100+ average but his doubling worries me. De Decker could be a bit of a trappy bet at not the greatest odds really. Who knows which De Decker turns up?

Thanks @CzechPunter but I been going through a terrible period so not going to post a bet for awhile. I just wondered why the forums have so few contributors.
