fd1972uk Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Took Bill's from the start, although wondering if Kansas are the team this year(had them last year and they ran into that mental Bengals game with Burrows). Obviously I want Dolphins to win but they're out this week. MinellaWorksop 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously I want Dolphins to win but they're out this week. I think it's really open this year. It wouldn't even surprise me if the Bucs won it based purely on the Tom Brady factor. I reckon anyone from the Chiefs, Eagles (bit too reliant on Jaleon Hurts imo), 49ers, Bengals and Bills could win it. I even wouldn't be surprised if the Chargers or Jags went far. Basically I haven't a clue who's going to win it lol. Though it's sure going to be fun and fascinating to see how it all plays out. fd1972uk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fd1972uk Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Tbh for me only 3 will win it, Chiefs, Bill's or 49ers. I agree about Philly, just done see it. Don't see any of the others as they're too inconsistent to go through these games. Tbh I have actually grabbed some small free bets and applied them to various teams, so it's a certainty that I win something, lol. Got a couple of bigger freebies which I think I'll lob on chiefs and 49ers. I've usually used them on horses without luck so might do this.

MinellaWorksop Posted January 17, 2023 Author Share Posted January 17, 2023 So after the Wild card round we have the following eight teams remaining. On the AFC side of the bracket: Kansas City Chiefs (1) vs Jacksonville Jaguars (4) Buffalo Bills (2) vs Cincinnati Bengals (3) And on the NFC side of the bracket: Philadelphia Eagles (1) vs New York Giants (6) San Francisco 49ers (2) vs Dallas Cowboys (5) Game of the round out of these has to be The Bills versus The Bengals. A fascinating clash between these two titans of this season. fd1972uk and harry_rag 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinellaWorksop Posted January 24, 2023 Author Share Posted January 24, 2023 And the Championship Finals are decided. A fascinating Divisional Round saw The Eagles completely dominate The Giants. The 49ers come through in a tight game against The Cowboys. The Chiefs fight off the valiant plucky Jags. And The Bengals eliminate ante post favourites The Bills. The AFC Final will be: Kansas City Chiefs (1) vs Cincinnati Bengals (3) The NFC Final will be: Philadelphia Eagles (1) vs San Francisco 49ers (2) Both unsurprisingly at this stage of the tournament absolute corkers of matchups. fd1972uk and harry_rag 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fd1972uk Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 Just noticed that I'm off on holiday on the Monday so beers for the SB and winning money already, lol. Good few bets for that night. MinellaWorksop 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harry_rag Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 Give the title should we use this thread for bets on the game itself? I'll get things rolling with my first ones, having just started looking at the player prices and stats. Mahomes to score at TD at 6/1 with Lads (11/2 plus boost). Also used a £1 freebie on him to score the last TD at 33/1 Has scored 4 rushing TDs this season, all in the 10 games since their bye week. Obviously Hurts deserves to be the much shorter price he is having scored 13 in 9 different games but I think Mahomes shouldn't be as big as 11/2 or more.

harry_rag Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Couldn’t resist the Lads Superboost on Mahomes to score a TD and to pass for >1.5 at 14/1. Given he’s around 1/2 for the passing element it’s a decent bet if you think the 6/1 is at least fair. MinellaWorksop and fd1972uk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fd1972uk Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Going to see what specials there are prior to the game on the various sites. Boylesports are offering 7/2 for kelce or Sanders 1st td, also the usual 888 free bet if lose. Probably mostly opt for bet builders and take first tds, will maybe even opt for 1st team td if decent enough odds. Think the above 2 and pacheco and brown are the obvious others, then stretching out to godaert and schuster. And that'll mean none of them, lol. Will probably just hold off till the day MinellaWorksop and harry_rag 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harry_rag Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Added another, McKinnon at 3.1 on BF (2.85 best with the bookies) My basic figures suggest he's a bet at 3 or more, very strong end to the season. Got a few other requests up on BF, not looking to back half the field so will review until I'm on another 2 or 3 at acceptable prices. fd1972uk and MinellaWorksop 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MinellaWorksop Posted February 12, 2023 Author Share Posted February 12, 2023 So here it is, Super Bowl 57 starting at 11:30pm tonight (UK time) Both teams were number one seeds in their respective Championships so it definitely is going to be a fascinating clash of the titans at StateFarm Arizona. Initial money line prices from Bet365 when the finalists were decided were Philadelphia Eagles at 1.74 and the Kansas City Chiefs at 2.15 . Prices as I look at them now have the Eagles at 1.83 and the Chiefs at 2.00 One of my concerns for The Chiefs was the mobility of star man Patrick Mahomes. With this continued money over the last two weeks this must mean a lot of people in the know are confident this won't be an issue for tonight's matchup. I have one bet for tonight's game, more of a hunch/instinct bet rather than one based on strong stats and feelings. And that bet is in the Anytime Touchdown market going for: Marquez Valdes-Scantling 3.60 with WH Other than that small play. This is an event to just sit back and savour the excellence on display in what is truly going to be a superb matchup. harry_rag 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matched on Watkins at 9.6 Also on any non-QB to throw a TD pass at 22/1 Sky Bet. My favourite mug/fun bet on NFL at what feels like a reasonable price.

fd1972uk Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Well went with a few first tds, thankfully gainwell was ko for his, so got hurts, but do need 17 pts for philly and 2 tds to come up. Have 3 other live bets, 1 might be for the bin. Also philly -1.5, Sanders any td, mahomes -292.5 yds. Also Sanders and kelce any td, chiefs 15 pts, eagles 17 pts, total pts 42 pts.

fd1972uk Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Need Sanders to come in here and should have my bb up. Bummer I neglected hurts instead but thems the risks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fd1972uk Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 What a final Got one bet builder up, and KC winning was the better outcome Sanders has been a bit of a jinx for me, done me a few times now. Think he picked an injury early on. Was hoping he was getting in near zone but Hurts was doing it single handedly. harry_rag and MinellaWorksop 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Mahomes was done for when he injured the ankle again and that The Eagles were going to run away with it. So massive credit to the guy for pulling it back and battling on through. tschurchy, fd1972uk and harry_rag 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fd1972uk Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 Yeah props to him. Tbh I had him not hitting the yardage, but he was still awesome. Mind you, haven't looked to see who MVP was, if he got it he does deserve it, but Hurts and the KC defender who scored the fumble was up there too.
