Jimfanciesthedude 24,358 Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 worst one for us id say was like above a works coupon, horrible weekend for games so we allowed sunday games, early/late ko's etc, only 6 of us in it (was the sections list) and at 5 quid a pop we were due well over 2 grand back, first 5 came in by sat evening, waiting on southampton at home to brighton on the sunday evening At the time Southampton had cantered the championship, brighton had taken heehaw on the road all season and while they just hired gus poyet 3 days before the game, this was seen as a "yas we've done it" cue brighton winning 3 fucking 1 at St Marys, i could have walked down to Brighton and booted Poyet right in the baws for that one, ugly prick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
theblueoysterbar 19,462 Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Went into Ladbrokes with my brother today, he was just getting his couple of quid back on a patent with 2 winners on it. Lassie says, "Nice one, that's £52.50 back." He says, "What? No, it should only be a few quid". ... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMB 14,167 Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 A few years ago Heart got Burnley as their manager and I thought he's do very well especially with Romanov there. I went round to the bookies and tried to put £20 on Hearts finishing 2nd. The guy told me he could give me a price for them winning it outright. I said no, I wanted a price for second. He said he didn't have odds for that so the bet wasn't placed. Hearts finished 2nd that season and I missed out on upwards of £2000. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you didn't get the odds how do you know how how much 'you would have won' ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Later on in the season when it became more clear Hearts could finish first or second the odds became more well known. The odds at seasons start were 200-1 if I remember right but it was a while ago now. It's like people talking about Leicester being 5000/1 after they won the league. People want to point out the long odds and there was stories in the papers of those lucky enough to have put the bets on. Copies of their tickets and such. Hearts long odds at the start of the season weren't a secret, it was frequently pointed out at the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know why. all you had to do was say I want a 10er or 20 quid each way on hearts. you get 1/2 the odds in the league for an ew bet and it pays out for 1st and 2nd. You've been able to bet ew on leagues for years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would tell you on the screen he would have been checking to see if they odds were available. ew 1,2 @ 1/2 the odds would've been above the league odds. so you'd have got 100/1 on them being second Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You didn't need to ask it would tell the guy at the counter. that ew betting was half the odds and paying 1st and 2nd. imagine you'd got it on and they'd won the league Even for a 10er ew you'd a fucked yourself for 3 grand as they'd have won the league and you were sitting waiting on them to be second. always ew it covers you for winning and being second. epl is 1/3 of the odds for 1,2,3 iirc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
