Best money bets?

[CrowsFan]

bloody hawks,,, it was the last leg of a 7-leg multi  haha  typical ::)

It's always the last leg that screws you up. Back in 2010 I had an 8 leg multi tipping all 8 winners for the weekend with odds of $75. Had put 10 on it and lost on the final match, which was one of the legs I was confident on ::)

Ever heard of hedging your bets?

I had the Hawks +24.5 as the last leg of a 7 leg multi paying $9.28. Woo.

Do you want to PM who you are putting your money on each week? You seem to be pretty good at this gambling game.

My multi this week was...

Eagles by at least 5 goals, Bombers by at least 20 points, Adelaide by at least 15 points and Pies by at least 5 goals.
Paying $6 or something... Cheers Collingwood ::)

i didnt have enough on it  to bother hedging the bet,  but normally i would if it was any real money on the line

Suspended betting on West Coast v GWS  >:(

*and did I hear correctly that AFL has weighed in and forced a ceiling of 40/1 as highest odd given for first goal kicker? - in light of the Shaw/Maxwell/Bock events of last season?

[CrowsFan]

Correct on both fronts roost.

The betting agencies have said they wont always give head to head betting for GWS matches since even 1.01 on the other team is being too generous ;D
You can still do line betting, predict the margin etc though ;)

whats hedging your bets?

and lol roost, I hope not. First goal kicker is pretty much a fluke anyway...

suspended betting on WCE/GWS is :(

Probably still only paying $1.01 for 200 points  :D

Thanks CF

You can still bet on the Giants to win, just not Eagles (well you can sportsbet have given them odds of 1.00 though so no point). Giants have odds of 41.00 ;)

Sportsbet have the line at 105.5, so betting for that is 1.92 :)
First time in history they have had the line over 100 points :o

whats hedging your bets?

hedging is when you place another bet on to cover the original one ,i.e. my bet last week was 7-leg multi where i had the first 6 legs with the hawks having to beat the cats for me to collect.  so i could have placed a bet on geelong to win, so that no matter the outcome i make profit...

[Ziplock]

so you do it if you're iffy on a certain outcome?

why not just not bet on that outcome then :P

well yeah u could just leave that bet out.. i suppose when u put the bet on it seems like a good idea, then once u have won most of the legs ,u decide its better to play safe and take a guarteed small win over a riskier bigger win. in my example if i knew it was gunna rain i probably wouldnt have backed the hawks, so i could have hedged because of a change in the situation(late outs/injuries etc.)

also though hedging can be when  i.e. you place a bet on TAB for pies to beat blues at $2.10, then 2 days later u see  centrebet have blues at $2.15,  you could put a bet on the blues and guarentee a win... or place a bet on north to beat hawks at $3.10 and at quarter time the live odds have changed and u can get hawks to win at $1.70. then u can cover yourself by betting both teams

GWS $1.12 for the spoon on Tattsbet thats a steal if you got a few grand lying around and hows this
Top 4
Geelong 1.8
Collingwood 2.0
Hawthorn 1.5
West Coast Carlton 1.40

I guess it will be close up there but surprised they offer 1.12 for gws

$1.12 would be because of the uncertainty of the demons and also GC arn't exactly carving it up.  and GWS did beat GC in a pre-season match, it may only take a couple of wins to stay off the bottom of the ladder.
    geelong at $1.80 for top 4, looks good

[Ziplock]

yeah melbourne. Not GC, with ablett they should beat us and melbourne.
