If Real Madrid win then AS Roma let me down today for 900 quid. Bastards.

2-1 down with a minute to go.

[Dynamo]

Yesterday must have been a good day for the bookies. Atletico, Roma, Barca and Real all failing to win.

Edit: And Chelsea.

Porto aswell, saturday would have been good for them too, I came close to a big win in the championship, every game BTTS, only 3 sides failed to score in the end, surprised how close it went.

[weemackie]

Dundee United Ross County double tonight just over 6/1

[Dynamo]

Boo.

[Tommy]

Aberdeen and Hibs double tonight just over 6/1.

Like I said via whatsapp, they'd have caught on to it regardless, I'm actually surprised they never let them run then altered them after it and kept the cash from the losing bets.

Surely because that would be illegal?

Nope, bookies have themselves covered so that they can change the odds or VOID any bet they wish to if there has been an error.

You sure they don't have to inform you in the event of a price change?

 

I know they can void them.

Nope, the bookies always have the upper hand, they've even been doing it in the shops, know of guys whoi have had bets placed with the odds written on them, bet wins they go in and collect and they pay out at much lesser odds, online bookies also hold the right to close down your account at anytime aswell, they have the upper hand with everything.

Before you place the bet, if it changes as you are making the ebt they'll tell you however if it's a palpable error then they hold all the cards to change it, good blog post here on it, follow this guy on twitter and I remember actually sticking up for him and asking for my hills account to be shut down as what they'd done was unfair, making the same error twice and not changing the odds of the losing bet.

That's a completely different kettle of fish than changing the bets as they choose though. That's what I'm getting at and had thought you meant originally.

They can do it whenever they want, they've done it in the past and will do it again, I probably should have moaned to betfred for their palp they made in the Ding match 2 weeks ago but I couldn't be bothered despite it losing as I knew it was an error and I was trying to cash in, you'll get away with it now and then but not for a big sum.

[spamspamspam]

Raging with Betway Sports.

 

They fucked up and had Vernon first goal scorer 125/1 along with McGinn and Cifti. Vernon 40/1 anytime along with Cifti and McGinn.

 

I had money on all of it along with few others, they caught on about 7.30pm and refunded everything.

 

Me, my missus and my mate were destined for a lot of money like, sick.

 

Not sure if this one is true but there was meant to be a bookie in Glasgow that forgot the clocks went back and was taking bets on a fitba game an hour after the result.

 

He had to pay out, bets accepted.

I was once watching boxing in the middle of the night from America. Ladbrokes were quoting odds for the first fight that was being televised, obviously not aware the fight had taken place 2 hours earlier and was being shown 'as live'.

 

Stuck a small wager on the correct round but the bet was still pending the next day and eventually cancelled.

 

Only other time I've had it was in a Hills shop. There was some obscure ladies tennis match on and Laura Robson had just went 4-1 down in the first set with her opponent to serve. They had got the odds the wrong way round and her opponent was 9/2 or something to win the set. Stuck the £50 in my pocket on and they paid out fine.

Your own link even said they can only do it in cases of a genuine error, not 'whenever they want'.

[Henry]

Look bobo, mini has forgotten more about gambling than you'll ever know, so shut it eh.

[minijc]

Your own link even said they can only do it in cases of a genuine error, not 'whenever they want'.

But they still do it and get away from it, what helped him was that they never voided or changed the price of the first bet, the losing one, had they done that thn I doubt he'd have gotten very far, that was in play market aswell where as this was pre off, also given that the shops also try catch punters out by voiding or changing bets you really are up against it, I got lucky a few weeks back with Thornton most 180s at 9/1 when he had two games, went to collect it they tried to pay it out at 5/6 but I managed to get full amount.

 

Also during Cheltenham last year a lad that stays near me stuck £100 on a 10/1 horse 30seconds in to the race, it won but the bookie has refused to pay out, he smashed a few things up haha.

[boboisared]

Look bobo, mini has forgotten more about gambling than you'll ever know, so shut it eh.

Yeah you're right.

 

He'll be on twitter looking for the answers as we speak.

[Tommy]

I dont get this changing odds after you have placed your bet.

When i bet on my phone i get told there and then of any price change and i can like it or lump it.

You know that is minimum price and many times i've ended up winning more coz the SP was higher

but with guaranteed best odds you can never get less than what you have bet at.

Palpable errors has always been a get out and the odds on scorers last night was a prime example, annoying

for anyone who tried to take advantage but the bookies should be getting their house in order so that sort

of thing doesn't happen.

[gla5gowdon]

Best one I ever got was a Hill's special on Gareth Bale to score and David Haye to be beat Audley Harrison.

 

They were still taking bets after Bale had scored.

 

Paid out.

 

[Melvo]

Hi,

 

As all of you should know by now: I am Melvo, the man you wish you were.

 

Since my introductory post I have been swamped with requests (especially from Robbie Winters, Tyrant and Roberto) to start my own thread offering tips to you muggles out there that can't interpret and analyse things yourself. As I am philanthropist I see it as only fitting to help out the less fortunate and therefore I have obliged.

 

I don't want to be a topic spammer so if you want to become filthy rich like myself you will need to revisit this post on a frequent basis.

 

Good Luck.

[Melvo]

My first tips will be for this evenings games (07/05/2014).

Manchester City Handicap -2

> City have the best PPG (Point-Per-Game) ratio of any team in the English Premier League at home this season, with 46 points coming from their 17 home games. They have 2 home games remaining this season and if they win both the get to lift the title for the 2nd time in 3 years. Match this with 4 away losses in-a-row for Aston Villa and just 1 win in their last 10 away games and you have yourself an absolute banker ladies and gentleman.

Sunderland v West Brom BTTS (Both Teams To Score)

> This is a crucial match at the bottom of the table for both teams, who have stinking defensive records. Both teams on average have scored >1 GPG (Goals-Per-Game) this season and both have conceded >1.5 GPG this season. Sunderland also have the worst home record in the league, leaving the door open for West Brom to get a cheeky goal or two. Get it on people.

Celtic To Win

> Celtic proved they have St. Johnstone's number earlier this season with a 3-0 win in February and Celtic have beat St.Johnstone in their last

4 meetings. With a 5-2 win over our beloved Aberdeen in their last outing Celtic prove to be in good form and can add a little boost to the old accumulator.

The best odds I can find for a treble on this are 5.87, or 4.87/1 if you have a tendency for fractions, on BetVictor.

I'm just placing a cheeky £2,500 on it. Wont be watching it because I'll be out at my local casino card counting and pulling the bitches. Good Luck.

Please remember, I am not responsible for any of your losses and I am 100% responsible for any of your winnings.

[The Cockney Don]

Try the today`s bet thread, kid !

[fine-n-dandy]

Either Sunderland will win, or BOTH teams will play out for a draw as WB are already safe & a draw will also make sure of Sunderland's safety I would bet on this game being a draw. WB will not win basically imo.

So you may be correct with both teams to score but I have a feeling it could be a boring game of passy played out for a 0-0 draw.

Nae bad bet though
