My opinion is that it is Tuesday night and you have posted potential bets for Saturday. This implies some degree of gambling addiction. Already. Get out while you still can!

I have to be honest, I read this everytime I log on to HNA? I may be addicted. I like the look of Palace, QPR and Sheff U. Thanks again to skin for the advice, I'll keep trying until they get the message you can do it. Might try one of the different local Ladbrookes.

If we all told you that the Palace, QPR, Sheff U bet was a stinker would you back it? What if you didn't and it came in?

And if we told you to lump on Brizzle City because the oppo goalkeeper has got a hernia he hasn't told the gaffer about but he plays a blinder anyway and City lose 2-0?

Honestly, I think you should follow your own mind and just post placed bets so that we can mock/praise you after the event.

I'm also tempted by this. I've got £100 worth of free bets still to be used and am thinking of turning it into about £70 of real cash by putting it all on the Argies.

LOL.

Had a £5 treble on over 2.5 goals, Hartlepool v Brighton, Lincoln v Kettering, Rotherham v Aldershot.

Wasn't even tracking it after there was only a goal in each game with about 20 left, iirc. And they all came in! Result!

Argentina do look very tempting, but I hate backing odds on. Have gone for a treble with Ireland (v Poland) and Romania (v Georgia). Friendlies are a bit random, but don't fancy any of the others. Holland look like a lay at 4/6 at home to Sweden.

Ended up putting £50 of my free bet money onto a double of Argentina and Holland. Came off to give me £84.62 of hard cash.

I've now rinsed Betfred of close to £500 in ten days. 8)

Now, onto my next victim...

Hull are at 7/2
Millwall are at 11/8
Sheffield United are at 13/8

So that's about 28/1 mate.

Put £10 on a simple double, off the top of my head, something like Chelsea and Reading. That should nearly double your money to close to £20, which would allow you to put a tenner on the treble above.

Of course, you could end up £20 down, but you'll have a very good chance of finishing pretty much evens for the day with the possibility of that treble coming through to leave you £280 up!

You know it makes sense mate. :wink:

NB - I take no responsibility whatsoever if you end up being down, but full responsibility if you're rich tomorrow evening.

I see what you're saying and it is a very good plan, but as it is getting to the end of the month I can not afford to lose the £20 (that's my beer money for the Hatton fight), I can afford to lose about a £5, which I will bet on the odd accy. Which could get me more beer money! Next Saturday though, I will try a bet like that though, when I have been paid! Thanks again for the advice.
