  2. This thread is completly for fun. I will probably back the selections but only to small stakes. Im going to attempt to pick a few scores and scorers and combine them in scorecasts and see how well I can do. It will mostly be live games and games that I expect could involve a few goals as these usually provide better prices. Scorecasts arent a bet Id usually touch but its a bit of fun and wouldnt advice anyone to follow these bets but feel free if you choose. Bank will be 100pts and each bet will be 0.5pts.

  3. Re: ARB AVAILABLE - GERMANY vs DENMARK An arb is a situation when you can place two bets at the same time to produce a guareenteed profit. In this case it was backing at one price and laying at a lower one. Another example wuld be a close tennis/snooker game where one bookie may offer 5/4 on one player and another views it differently and offers 5/4 on the other player.

  4. Re: Percentages and horses

    agree about Horse Racing to a certain extent, tipsters from the big daily's choose their horses before the betting is even formed on the day before, they have to so they can be printed in the press on time, their picks arent based on value, it cant be. Then the market is formed and lots of times its down to public demand whether a price goes in or out, but the starting point is usually terrible value on most horses, the bookies will always open up the prices on the short side, and once again the public will follow the flow in some cases nomatter what price they get. Pricewise horses in the Racing Post are ok if you get the 'big' price advertised but half the time this price will be long gone by the time you come to put the bet on, all the value has gone but punters will still continue to back it. It always amazed me.
    This always makes me laugh at work. Punters see the price go from 25/1 to 20/1 to 16/1 and then come up asking to take the price and that there backing it because its gone from 25/1 to 16/1. Well done, so you're backing it now that all the value's gone?? Smart idea.
