So...anyone betting on England vs San Marino?

I've got a little bet on Rooney scoring first and England winning 7-0. Paddy Power are refunding losing bets if Rooney bags a hatrick tonight, which is a decent offer.
I bet you were getting rather excited at 5-0 with 13 minutes to go.

I've been tempted by doing a challenge similar to that above too, but never actually got round to it. Anybody here ever tried anything like that?I remember reading a story a while ago about a guy that did it- starting with a tenner he bet only on absolute bankers (across any sport) and amassed a pot of about

I've tried it before but lost patience and ended up doing it on multiple "in play" events over the course of a week. Stuff where you can only have two outcomes (ie: no draws) and you have enough free time to dedicate to it then it will work. Tennis is a great market for this, snooker likewise but not quite to the same degree.

 

In terms of footie it's quite a good market lookin for teams who are two goals up around the 70 minute mark. Obviously it'll often be a lot shorter than 1/10 depending on the teams involved but it can rack up the

It sounds attractive in theory but it wont and doesnt work, something will let you down. Whilst you might look at a 1/10 shot and think it simply cannot lose, its still 1/10 which means it only has a 90.9% chance of winning. In theory all youre doing is backing stuff because of its price, which just isnt a good idea in the first place.

Fresh meat for the betting world's grinder here.

 

...And I'm a complete and utter novice. I'm desperately trying to fill out a ladbrokes betting accumulator online, I've made my picks, now it's asking for a deposit. So much for only wanting to spend a princely pound. What am I doing wrong and/or why is it being such a willy?

 

Help me before the 6pm kick offs tonight and I'll give you some of my winnings!
