Two Hundo Posts on Miraclecovers

And #200 is about…soccer, a game that has been slowly sucking me in over the last couple years.  Over/under Premier League point totals are as follows.  I will point out when a line is heavily weighted. Man U : 81.5 Chelsea : 77.5 (over -130) Man City : 74.5 (over -130) Arsenal : 68.5 (over [...]

Recent Bets Made

Going to throw down here a couple of recent bets made… Champions League Finals – Barca vs Man U – Straight up Bet 50 I need the finals of the Champions League to be Barcelona vs Man U.  Any other Finals Match-up (i.e. Man U v Real) and Loubaka wins.  The obvious thing to hate [...]

Thoughts

1)  I do not have long term betting experience with soccer, but regardless, this week is the first time I have ever seen a soccer total goals scored line of 3.5.  And it seems pretty deserved with Chelsea v Stoke City.  This could honestly be Chelsea v X, Drogba looks flat out dominant at the [...]

World Cup Follow-Up

I had said i would follow up on the last round of World Cup picks I had, and success was mine.  If I had been betting One hundred dollars as one unit I finished up 747 bucks.

Ghana 60:1

I added some Ghana World Cup futures at 60:1 to go with the 35:1 on Uruguay. Both of these teams are in the same pod (with the United States) and should either make the semis, we can start to pull out some equity by betting on their opponent to advance. Of course, If the US [...]

Games to Avoid

Basically the rest of the group phase. I’ve got nothing for the next day or two. Declan Hill: It is the time for the fixes. Here is what I know. The fixers are in South Africa. They have been desperately trying to contact various teams. They have various runners and old contacts coming in and [...]

Group A Bets

Kickoff is in under an hour… South Africa PK +170 vs. France is on strike Going with the point spread here. This will push on a draw. I have a small amount on SA +280 straight up as well. Uruguay/Mexico o2 +175 I’ll be livebetting this one and putting my 100% live betting record at [...]

World Cup

If you bet money based on my World Cup picks last week, whoops.  Made five bets and the best result I had was a push.  If I had been betting One Hundo a pop on those picks I would be down a smooth 4 bills at this moment.  So let’s try to win it back!  [...]

World Cup Week 2

Adding some more action no doubt spurred by the increase in scoring that was inevitable, even if it was hard to profit from some of the scoring.  We took a bad beat taking Australia/Ghana o2.5 +165 when there was no scoring after Harry Kewell’s red card and subsequent penalty prior to the half hour mark.  [...]

World Cup Action

Let’s take a look at some upcoming games over today and tomorrow.  I will be betting units and keeping track of my payoff/money lost in relation to the lines.  Will I finish up money? France v. Mexico – Draw +215 – One Unit A couple of teams with not a whole lot going on these [...]
