When it doesn't go your way it doesn't!

Rochdale battered Luton but still 2-0...

Quite liking all of the outsiders to qualify in the international games to be honest at the moment

What a poor weekend, actually had a decent one with trading games in play, seem to be able to read them in play at the moment but not pre game!!

VoiceofReason - it's really growing here, the buzz was really good, I actually had two tickets for it but had to sell them as it was my mum's 60th birthday - but spoke to a few people who went who loved it. I'll definitely go next time, a big fan although much prefer boxing

Man Mike, If you have futures on Ireland, Bosnia and Slovenia to qualify...it doesn't make sense to add more to that by playing today's games right? You lose double the cash and right now the odds are not in your favor.

France is up 1-0 with an away goal. Ireland will need to win by 1 to go to extra time and 2 to qualify and that's going to be very hard to do at France. Though your +1 today does hedge your future on a draw today.

Slovenia and Bosnia have to do the same and basically have to hold opponents to no goals. Also not going to be easy.

So what I'm saying is why not just go with your futures and watch instead of adding on?? Or possibly hedge them??

Good luck though on your futures.

Fully understand where you're coming from, but I take each game on its individual merits and base my bets on prices I believe to be wrong. I think the odds on Slovenia and Bosnia are higher than they should be therefore have bet on them I look for value in prices in betting - if that makes sense?

Disgusting from the French

Could or should have been in profit but Henry's two handballs have seen to that - gutted for the Irish

So they payed off those who bet France to qualify and they gave back the bets to those who bet Ireland?? I find it amazing that a betting venue would do this.

They did indeed, and they often do - there is usually promotions every weekend too

For example this weekend:

Gerr Having a Laugh!
Sat 12.45pm Sky Sports 1
Liverpool v Man City

If Gerrard scores the last goal, Paddy Power will refund all losing 1st /last goalscorer, correct score & scorecast singles on the match.


and:

Men in Black II
Money-Back Special
England vs New Zealand

If Ma'a Nonu or Conrad Smith scores the last try, Paddy Power will refund all losing try scorer and winning margin bets on the match.

Interesting props. To bad Gerrard doesn't score anymore. Or maybe that's why they offer that prop.@):mad:
