You put Liverpool in both of your accumulators?! Surely the point in doing two is to spread your risk... you must have been extremely confident in them. Well done for winning the second multiple, and I must say, I admire your bottle with regards to my previous point.

I placed two £50 doubles this weekend, one on Peterborough and Heerenveen which came through to leave me with only a small profit following the failure of my second double, of Burnley and over 2.5 goals in the Leeds v Swindon game (which finished 1-0).

I also unlocked a £39 free bet due to the amounts I've been placing, so last night whilst waiting for the Khan fight, I stuck it on an away treble of Salzburg, Panathinaikos, and Barcelona, which came through for a return of £104.18.

reading also did me out of a winning treble on sat. arsenal reading and peterborough.

HOWEVER

tonight i did a treble on inter, barca and ath mad. t'was a £50 free bet, left after caning the bookies at cheltenham, happy days.

o'h and £10 on khan rounds 4-6 paid £100, less a £10 loser on barrera rounds 4-6.


8/11 about west ham and possibly over 2.5 goals @ evs looks tempting mon night, although so did 8/11 about reading...

Donny at 2/1 seems pretty generous tonight.

I haven't really looked at anything for tonight yet, but £10 on an away treble of Reading, Burnley, and Crystal Palace returns £184.14.

I probably won't back it, but it would make a nice little side-bet if I do decide to go for another of my more simple doubles.

Throw in Swansea at QPR as well and you're looking at over £520

Relatively small stakes tonight, as I've gone for Brentford and Scunthorpe in one double, as well as an outsider of Reading and Burnley.

I'm laying Reading on betfair tonight, so anyone backing Reading will be winning my own money if Reading get the win.

What more incentive could anyone need?
