Wrote:-------------------------------------------------------> Why didn't you just bet England to beat France?> That'd hedge it properly.I would not get 8/1 on that. I don't think England will beat Ireland today (or beat France) but if they win today they are a better team than I thought and will then have areal chance of beating France and will be quite short odds, so I thought now was the time to take the 8/1. If they are good enough to beat France in Paris they will def beat Ireland today, so the two go together.

Mick Mac Posted February 27, 2010 Author Share Posted February 27, 2010 Very good odds I agree but I am a Kauto fan and a Ruby Walsh fan. Tony McCoy sometimes does not do the business when on a top chance horse for some reason. Ruby is a cool head and I think he knows Kauto's perfect cruising speed. McCoy may have pushed Denman too hard so he was uncomfortable and slipped up?

Mick Mac Posted February 27, 2010 Author Share Posted February 27, 2010 They won't beat Ireland (hopefully) but if they do they are a real grand slam chance. If England don't win today I won't bother hedging for the final game as I just could not then see England improving sufficiently to win in Paris. Both bets placed will win me over ?200 so I'm happy to have hedged a bit. No grand slam is not attractive - its good odds cos everyone knows France will win it now :)) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/6740-betting-matters/page/28/#findComment-301503 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 My logic is France WONT lose to ItalyIf Ireland beat England (Likely) you've still got the worry on england beating France (possible)Or if England beat Ireland (unlikely) you've then got to worry a tad about Scotland Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/6740-betting-matters/page/28/#findComment-301516 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will look at it again after todays result but my thought is that if england lord today them they will not beat france but their odds may lengthen for the france game after if they lord today. Think declan has i point they could lose their last 3 games or win them all cos noone really knows how good or bad this england team is .

Narnia Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 I'd expect France to win but wouldn't underestimate the Italians. They have a great pack and they actually ran the ball today. France don't lose in Paris very often but they may get wobbly if a match doesn't go in their favour at the start.

MrBen Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 To football...I have ?100 on an England vs Egypt draw at 7/2 and a twenty on an Egyptian win at 7-1. Egypt looked very strong in the Africa Cup (which they recently won) but have not qualified for the World Cup and keen to show they are still strong...England trying out a few things in prep for the WC, Terry affair, restless expectant crowd .Basically I'm backing Egypt for a result with this one.....

???? Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Betfair is your friend Mr BenEngland are 1.43 so you could have laid them for ?300 for the same risk ( ?120) and picked up ?300 for draw Or win.

???? Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Do you mean 7/1 or 7 decimal? You can't guarantee a decent or indeed any profit (I think)...you've got ?350 to coverArsenal have some easy games approaching...maybe leave it and then lay them if they get expected results. You could also bet Man U on individual games as they're your biggest problem...but you're going to be down if Chelsea win too! I'd just stay with what you've got to be honest.

As long as one of Walters brothers is referring again I should make a tidy profit and you should be able to get merrily drunk on my winnings.
