ADVICE WITH A BET

Thu Oct 20, 2011 3:28 pm

Got a bet active that will pay me £274 if PAOK beat Shamrock Rovers tonight, Now should I, and would you cover my original £100 accumulator stake and place ten pounds on Shamrock at 11-1 and then £25 on the draw at 4-1 and cover my original stake.
Greed or sense?

Gwyn is this a payout of £274 0r a profit of £274 :?:
Because if its a payout your going to be out of pocket if Shamrock were to win,or the game ends in a draw.

as topcat says you would end up losing on shamrock win or draw by doing that. if you get onto betfair you can lay paok at 1.36. plus win or lose you will get a free bet to use on something else

...and that was going to be my next point...Spot on cp1927 :ayatollah:

Would be better off laying PAOK on betfair if you have an account with them ( £150.00 @ 1.36 = - £54.00 ) .

He is due to get £274, minus his £100 stake = £174 minus the £35 he is going to lay = £139 profit if PAOK win.

As others have said here he be better off laying it on Betfair at 1.36 than doing thos two singles.

Confused about this laying off at 1.36 with Bet Fred, can someone explain in fools english for me, at mo I'm looking at letting it ride, the original ton was the winnings from a twenty on a horse, so no real loss, just trying to be a bit more switched on.

Gwyn :ayatollah: if you want to make a profit by using bookies and not betfair..
Put £15.00 on Shamrock ( £180.00 ) and £35.00 on the draw ( £175.00 ) = you will now have put on £150.00.

Result PAOK WIN = £124.00 : Shamrock WIN = £30.00 : THE DRAW WIN £25.00.

I THINK IVE GOT THIS RIGHT ;) Otherwise let it ride :?:

in fools english laying is taking a bet. betfair aren't a bookie themselves they are an exchange that matches punters. so if u lay a bet you're betting against that team, you lose money if they win, you win money if they lose or draw. so at the moment for instance paok are odds of 1.14 to win. to lay them at 100 pound you are risking 14 pound, if paok win you lose your 14 quid. if paok lose you get 100 pound

I thought you were in trouble when it was only 1-0 at half time, Shams tend to regroup at half time and gain in confidence. Well done though :ayatollah:
