Guest surebetdmg Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 Last night (while fairly drunk) I placed a £25 bet on England to win tomorrow @ 4/7 with Bluesq. This morning, I logged into my BlueSq account to find that it was empty. Checking my 'unsettled bets' I discovered that I had accidently put £250 (all of my betting money) on England. I know this sounds stupid, and you're probably thinking 'What a wally...', but what should I do? Should I do nothing, and just hope that England win? (I could win £142!!) or should I borrow some money of a friend and put £120.77 on the draw at 9/4 and £65.42 on Paraguay. That way I only loose £43.69, as opposed to the potential £250. Any advice much appriecated. PS - does anyone think that if I emailed Bluesq and explained, they would let me cancel £225 of the bet, leaving only the £25 I origionally intended?

dave Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 Re: England v Paraguay Just leave it on. Paraguay are poor - they only drew 1-1 with a dreadful Nigeria. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest arfster Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 Re: England v Paraguay I would attempt to cancel it. Yes, Paraguay are awful in friendlies, yes they suck away, yes they don't give a monkeys about this game, yes England have a few players who should be out to impress. Butttttt, 4/7 is a shitty price. England could lose all fluency after a nervy start. Paraguay could fluke one, or Santa Cruz (damn good striker) could surprise them. You never know.

slick Posted April 18, 2002 Share Posted April 18, 2002 Re: England v Paraguay Would like to know myself. When i first saw this post the other day, i was tempted to rib surebet but didn't have the heart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest surebetdmg Posted April 18, 2002 Share Posted April 18, 2002 £142.86 I left the bet standing. And thank God I did. If I had emailed Bluesq and cancelled it I would have kicked myself so hard after the game! I must say that it does make the game a hell of a lot more fun when you've got a lot of money on it. (Probably for some of you, £250 isn't a lot of money, but it certainly is for me). Anyway, thankyou for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest azton Posted April 18, 2002 Share Posted April 18, 2002 Congratulations But a piece of advice for you - actually the usual advice : Dont bet for more than you can afford to lose. Excitement is not the same as fun if you lose... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Big Ron Posted April 19, 2002 Share Posted April 19, 2002 Re: Congratulations Well done with your bet. England went ahead early doors after Owen had gone empty at the second post. Spotters badge for Gerrard, what a great pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
