Chandler were refunding all losing bets staked on the final today IF Drogba scored the last goal.

Well i had the mother of all accumilators yesterday yesterday, had a fiver on

Simon - won at 11/2 (Took 6/1 earlier)

Littlebighorse - won at 15/2

Nil Desperandum - won at 6/1

Cusoon - won at 11/2

i am now over 13 and a half grand richer than Friday

Holy Hell!

If you don't want any of it, I'll take it off your hands.

You lucky bastard. 13 and a half grand is just what I need.

Course you did.

Ok i didn't, because you know me and were with me when i was in the bookies Saturday, or went to pick the Cheque up today

What bookies? And how did you choose your selections?

William Hills, and i chose them for diffrent reasons

Simon - I went to Southwell Races a few Saturdays back and it absoloutley walked over a race there with a big 1st place price of about £34,000, so it seemed logical to go for it

Little Big Horse - I always look out for when Sue Smith has runners because she tends to do well, LBH stood out because it was a huge price for a horse of its ability, its last 3 races before Saturday were not so good but the conditions didnt suit, Saturday suited it much better and it duly delivered

Nil Desperandum - Really didn't fancy the favourite at such a short price, ND was the pick of the rest of the field for me so i went for it

Cusoon - I remembered seeing it win before sometime and it looked impressive, and it'd won its last 2 races with Baker on board but had come second in its last 2 races without him, so with a Jockey that does well on board the horse which is in good form it seemed a good shout to win again

Well, fair play if you copped £13,000. For a fiver stake that's unreal. Wherever you placed it, their bonus for the year is fucked

The fact that the accumulator adds up to just under 12k leads me to doubt the story.

It adds up to £13536.25

i fancy Cash In Hand 4-20 @ leicester E/W 8-1

How do you guys pick your horses?

I generally just watch for the horses that have won at the Course and Distance. Scrub the rest of them. I generally follow the All-Weather too, as I've had a lot of winners from there.

I've been following the same tips as Templegate (The Sun) on that Online Betting Guide site today. He's pretty shit ain't he? Probably around 12 races, as of now, one winner that I can see.

Losing fake money~~~!

Well done on Cash In Hand, I backed it to win though like a tool. Fair play for the accumulator guy as well. Probably just a bit of jealousy showing through, cos i've not had a winner for two weeks!!!!

I'll try Too Much Talk in the next race at 5.2 on betfair.

Have taken Swansea tonight @ 7/5 on a single.

Have laid 0-0 tonight Reading-Man Utd @13 on Betfair. Surely there's got to be a goal in this one.

Ive had a bet on the football tonight with full cover

Chester to beat Hereford @ 6/5

Doncaster to beat Yeovil @ 23/20

Oldham to beat Blackpool @ 5/6

West Brom to draw with Middlesborough @ 21/10

11 bets in total with a £10 stake coming to £110

6 Doubles, 4 Trebles and a 4 Fold

If they all come in it makes just over a Grand

Man U have came up from their usual 1/2 to 8/11 in some places over the last day or so...........suspicious, especially with Reading playing their squad players.

Tom quit while your ahead man, thats an insane amount for a Yankee. Yeovils recent away form has been excellent and Oldham took a big nose dive recently - take a few weeks off to savour the big win.

Ive been a bit extravagant today to be fair, spent just over £500, putting a limit of £50 on myself in future though so I can enjoy the winnings

Spent over £500 today?!?!?

http://www.gamblersanonymous.org.uk/

Contact them.

Even if I was minted I wouldn't spend £500 on a few horses.

Fivers my limit.

Im thinking of saving the Lions Share of it and going on 2 trips of a lifetime to the Cheltenham Festival and the Grand National meeting

2nd at 4/1 glad i took 8/1 when i did!

wednesdays tip from me...wetherby 4-45 Thatlldoya e/w 7/1

I'm off to Cheltenham on the Friday, gold cup day!! Anybody got any fancies, bearing in mind that it will probably be very soft ground. Maybe The Listener for the Gold Cup @ 16/1?

Anyone got any tips for today???

Is there some sort of holiday going on in Italy right now?

Full card of Serie A, this afternoon, by the looks of things. I've got Roma over Chievo.

All i've had today is Personal Column in the 2:55 at Southwell. The yard will be very dissapointed if he's beat.

I'd also advise Grand Symphony in the 3:30 at Southwell too

Evens odds? Might be good as a banker!

Whats kick off times over there?

2pm.

http://www.myscores.co.uk/football.php

Thats that bet f*cked. 2-0 to Chievo.

Losing fantasy money~!

It's the games from Sunday that were suspended following the policeman being killed.

I fancy Global Strategy and Astorygoeswithit in the last two at southwell. I am going down Betfred for a double on these shortly.

I fancy either Blue Hills or Red River Rebel both each way in the 4:35 at Southwell

Here is my tips, that I put on the Online Betting Guide today using FANTASY money. Picked the last three winners at Folkestone!

thursdays tips....

Brochrua 2.20 Taunton 7/1 e/w
So Cloudy 3:10 Ludlow 6/1 ew
Discreet Cat 5:15 NAD AL SHEBA 4/11 win

My tip Blue Hills placed at 10/1, so its not all of us, just you not following the right advice

didnt run as meeting was off!

double post sorry!

I think the more you watch the all-weather, the more you see certain jockeys ruling others. Neil Callan, for instance, has the knack of riding whichever track he chooses brilliantly. And he never gives up. Liam Jones, a claimer, is my favourite jockey. He rides beautifully, his timing is spot on. More importantly, he can get a horse with no chance into the money. In my opinion, with the claim as well, he's the best all-weather jockey riding. I rang Hills (who I work for) for a price on him ever being champion flat jockey - they refused! They is running scared ~

i agree with you on callan. i've backed a number of wins back of the callan/ryan combination, mainly at double figure odds.

not my day!

Coventry @ 4/5
Scunthorpe @ 11/10
Aberdeen @ 6/5
Stenhousemuir @ 4/6

6 x £2.50 doubles on Chandler.

Also tempted to put a large whack of my bonus from work on Swansea @ 4/5 - see how i feel tomorrow

just had a £20 double on derby and chester for tonight

I just used Betfair for the first time, to put some money on Randy for this weekend's UFC show, but just had a thought. When the result of your bet comes in, do they send an email? I don't want a "CONGRATS, YOU WON SOME MONEY" email spoilerising my inbox, or a "LOL YOU JUST LOST".

Has anyone used them before, and does this happen? Thanks.

Yes, I've used them before. No, you get nothing, which is good. When you log in next time, you'll either be stinking rich or skint, and then you know your fate.

Oh beautiful, thanks.

derby won 5-1 and then this happened!!!!!!

GOAL: Chester 1-1 Torquay: L Thorpe (pen 90) result now.......and gutted)

Any tips for today?

Here are my win fancies:

YES MY LORD - 2.40 Newbury
NUMERO UN DE SOLZEN - 3.55 Kelso
DANCING BAY - 2.55 Kempton

Each way efforts:

STAINLEY - 4.25 Kelso
MARCEL - 3.15 Newbury

Not long to Cheltenham now. I am really looking forward to it, especially the first day as I am going. The Champion Hurdle should be a cracker. I will have most of my bets up by Tuesday of next week. Going to put in 2 solid days of research first.

Only bet I lost, on the Online Betting Guide, was that Sheff Utd - Everton draw. I'm on a football winning streak I think. I even won betting on the result of the first half of Barca - Seville. Awesome stuff, even if its for fantasy money.
