From little acorns ...................

Ive applied today to reopen my Betfair account as to be totally honest the other sites are total pish , Betdaqs ok if you need to lay horses so to speak but other markets lack liquidity and wbx is a total joke, so until then , thats if they allow me back , coz they said they might not , im going to piffle around with bits and bobs i come across to keep me ticking over and possibly build a bank with 1 of these mad attemts that are simply a way of keeping my occupied when theres nowt better to do

So here goes >

BetDirect bonus coupon
Man Utd away to Dinamo Kiev @ 4/6 Tuesday 7:45
Utd have a decent side going to kiev and fergies said already that he wants 6 points to wrap the group up in the forthcoming head to head home and away to kiev . Kiev have already lost both games this time round ,and lost 2 of last seasons 3 home CL games including a 4-1 thumping by moderate Steaua Bucharest . Utd have been solid if unspectacular away from home ,and with the weather not bad in the Ukraine i take Man Utds class to see them through with a comfy win , i rarely bet away from home ,nevermind odds on , but this looks a stonker as Utd seem to be at least 2 classes above their hosts .

Liverpool away to Besiktas @ 4/5 Wednesday 7:45
Liverpool must win ,3 points is absolutely vital , and they`ll go for the win here , no doubt . Besiktas are awful , i watched them vs Porto and they create very little , and they went to Marseille and lost 2-0 and it should have been 8-0 !! Porto went to turkey for a 0-0 , ive no idea why , and still should have scored at will when they bothered to attack . They eventually won 1-0 but it should and would have been more if theyd gone for it , expect no mistakes from a hungry needy Liverpool against a poor turkish team .Again odds on away , but they just look far too good to me .

Tottenham home to Getafe @ 8/13 Thursday 7:45
Tottenham arent everyones cup of tea just now and Martin Jol is under immense pressure , so why am i backing them ? Well for a start Tottenham always score at home , and Getafe rarely score away . Tottenham will have a packed house and a full team ,to go flat out to flatten a mediocre spanish team who just dont travel well , even in spain , losing 4 from 4 away in La Liga , theyll come here knowing how Tottenham like to attack and theyll try to limit the damage , and theyd take a 0-1 or 1-2 defeat now if it was offered to them . Also spanish teams have a bad record in England over many years and i just cant see Tottenham not winning here .

Like i said small acorns to start with ,so just a £6.50 treble paying just over £30.00

cheers all

As a matter of interest why was your betfair account closed and why 'might' they not allow you to reopen it?

Re: From little acorns ...................

I had a bad time of it a few months ago and decided to pack it all in , moment of madness but at the time it seemed the right thing to do !!!

I emailed to ask to have it reopened and they said i had to put it in writing and even then they may not let me reopen it as they have strick guidlines regarding self exclusions and the like .

So i await the result !!!

MITK

PS Man Utd 4-2

2 to go

Pinched from the RFO

Getafe have won just once in the league this season, losing all four aways and conceding 11 goals.

Spurs won all four of their UEFA Cup group stage games last season.

Good luck

Re: From little acorns ...................

Bit late mate ,already lost with the scumpool last night .

Regarding Getafes away form , they condeded 4 at seville when they had 9 man for along time , and theyve also been to valencia and real madrid . Just pointing out that the figures arent always what they seem , Having said that i still expect tottenham to win due to a number of reasons , namely tottenhams abiltiy to score at home and spanish results in england over the years ,and the fact that getafe will see a 1 goal defeat as a good result ,and the fact that theyll come here to defend imo .

Time will tell on that 1 ,but if all goes to form with my accas etc always having just the 1 let me down , then theyll win and i can blame the scousers !!! AGAIN !!!

Re: From little acorns ...................

No offence mate but have you considered stopping betting? You obviously felt concerned enough to ask them to freeze your account. What's changed that you need to reopen it?

Re: From little acorns ...................

I do well betting , as explained in another thread somewhere on here, i use it to pay for presents and treats like my ps2 ,games ,dvds ,beer etc etc all of which i couldnt have if i didnt bet as with a £1500 a month mortgage i have to give the wife all my wages so theres nothing to bet with .... I only bet with money previously won , and i always start off with free bets to get me going .

Regarding closing the account , i built my account to around £3000 and then placed a bet via my mobile for £1000 with the idea to trade at a later time in the game . The bet duplicated and i didnt realise so i ended up with 2 x £1000 bets .

I was on the phone for over an hour sorting as i had no PC access , i explained it to them that its impossible to do 2 exact bets at the same time ,same odds,even same reference number (every bet has a diff reference number), etc etc as it takes a minute or so to place 1 bet then youd have re navigate through it all again . Bloke kept saying we`ll get it sorted blah blah blah , as this is going on i forgot my game had started and by the time id realised there`d been 2 goals and i had to trade for a massive loss , just for my bet of £1000 , i didnt touch the duplicated amount .... eventually bloke said they couldnt do anything and that id have to keep the bet ,at which time thered been a 3rd goal and the bet had lost !!!

So basically id lost £800, plus another £1000 thru the duplicated bet , and if iod traded properly i might have lost about £50 as id have got out when the 1st goal went in after about 5 mins !!!

So i emailed them ans asked them to shut my account and i was never betting with them again !!! Which as i said b4 seemed a good idea at the time

I then transferred my cash to betdaq , and after 4 weeks ive made the £1000 i had left into about £2500 laying horses , but the liquidutys crap and im laying over the odds , so i want to go back to betfair , if theyll have me !!

MITK

ps Spurs are crap!!!
