How did you get so much on those four!? Whats the difference between an accumulator and 3fold/4fold?

The stake is higher Nick, so tonight although i only picked 4 teams two of which were short odds on, i actually staked £25.

Yesterday i put £40 on the four.

It's a risk but i could have had 4 x £10 accas and won nowt which is what usually happens! I'd rather win smaller amounts and more often if it can be done that way.

A 3 fold is essentially a treble and a four fold is just four selections like a four team acca.

You had any betting luck Nick?

Ahhhh right, got it.

I only do a quid a time just for a bit of fun, but I might do 4-folds or so to win a tenner or whatever.

Nah, no luck for me, closest would have been that one where Liverpool let me down for £30. Colchester & Southampton both drawing this weekend meant I missed out on £300... :(

I am getting closer, just want to win one soon! :lol:

yeah, good cos they keep doing offers, deposit a bit and they'll add 50% etc, and you can get a tenner every time a friend signs up

you can save your favourite leagues so it makes looking at a days fixtures much more pleasant, they do seem to offer far far too many prices tho so you can get bogged under at times

been off today so had a real good look at everything, turns out to be worst couple hours i spent, picked hansa rostock for home win, won three on spin, final score 0-5!! two in dutch league 0-2 down ht, bloody rubbish!!

will be glad to have a rest in a few weeks time!!

Not good for me tonight either thanks to Waterford United. They used to be good a few years ago but now they've gone part-time they couldn't hit a cows arse. They were playing against 10 men all second half too. Not the luck of the Irish.

i was gonna back wigan, but as my account was empty i couldnt, they'd been tipped in lots of places to win with a goal start, i saw them at 11/1 for a straight win, knowing me i'd have added another couple games and ballsed things up as usual!!

not even looking at tonights games, whole prog of championship games plus a few lower down, she watches holdy, so what will i do, will i weaken on day two and top up my account again!!
