Good luck!

I might drag my sorry self off to the bookies in a bit, nothing so ambitious though.

 I bet on City and the unmentionables and a few others to draw every League game and double the bet until they do. That lot at the Rugby Ground haven't mustered one yet this season, getting expensive

Man City to beat Crystal Palace by 6, 7, or 8 nil? 

I though Palace to win and BTTS looked fairly decent at 40/1. 

Lets face it, Palace aren't going to keep a clean sheet, so it's essentially 40/1 on a Palace win!

Haven't won in a long time . 2 Saturdays on a trot 1 team let me down. So I've done 30 quids worth yesterday. I will post the outcome later. Goals galore down already. FGR v swindle

Gone with a very ambitious 100/1...

Fortuna Koln (2nd) to beat Lotte (18th) @2.1
Queen's Part v Ayr - Over 2.5 goals @1.61
West Ham v Spurs - Tottenham win & BTTS @3.2
Ross County v Hibbs - Hibbs to win & BTTS @3.6
Fleetwood (8th) to beat Southend (17th) @2.5

Can't say I'm overly optimistic but it's just fun.

I have the occasional flutter but there are so many options now it confuses me. 

Can any one explain, if I pick six matches for example, what's the difference between ticking the 6 fold box and the acca box?

Haven't been to bookies for years. Just sign to an on line firm, so easy and if you do horses you get best possible odds and occasional refunds and free bets .

I go for my usual bet against City (insurance). Lost a lot this season and couldn't be more delighted !:clap::P

No difference but if you pick 7+ selections & select 6 fold it would give you a combination of 6 fold bets but not the total for 7+ teams.

The Acca gives you 1 bet on all the teams you have bet.

Make sense?

You know it’ll be city who let you down :laughcont:

Whenever I've bet on City in the past, they've always let me down. I fancy a 2-2 today but refuse to bet on it. I'll lose for sure.....

Man U, Chelsea and Leeds enhanced to 11/2 from 7/2 I had some of that

Yep, I'm on that & Paddy Powers Man Utd, Chelsea & Everton crowd enhanced, currently at 5/1 but could go as big as 6/1.

Everton, Rotherham and Wolves to win.  Any more than 3 is very hard.  That is 4/1 and seems a decent bet.

Also an extravagant EW Lucky 31

2.15 Across the Stars 10/1

2.50 Enjazaat 4/1

3.25 Law and Order 10/1

4.00 Priceless 12/1

6.25 Refuse Collette 14/1

Well done Tipps you had a bloody good day what with our 0/0 as well!!

The thing being is that the majority of my bets are enhanced prices that the bookies offer, be it on their enhanced trebles or in SkyBets case their enhanced price on the correct score of selected games so I don't have to really think about the bets, in the last 2 weeks alone I'm well over a grand up.

Long may it continue. I'm still betting in the old fashion way as my results today show!!!

Pick em out Friday night, take it down to Lee Saturday morning, he phones them in to his unofficial Bookie and every 3 years he knocks on my door with some winnings:P

I tend to bet less than £10 on accumulators but this way of backing enhanced prices tends to work.

I'd say it must come in about 7/10, never massive odds but I make enough from it that I don't have to touch my own money. Paddy Power also do a similar bet that comes in fairly regularly but you are limited to £20 on that one where as I'm limited to £37.50 on the SkyBet one.

SkyBets enhanced correct score is normally okay as well but that one means you betting on both teams most of the time so you're guaranteed to lose one (unless you cash out).

You're limited to £37-50?

i tried to put a ton on it today but it'd only let me do £25. You must be a fave of theirs.

To be fair not one of your teams lost. It's small margins.

You nearly had 5 draws up not that would be a decent pay out;)

I think I should give up. Rovers going to extra time did my 8 fold Tuesday and Real Madrid did for my 10 fold Wednesday. Derby, Preston and QPR meant another loss for a 10 fold today.

I used to be allowed £50 on the horse racing (money back as a free bet if your horse finishes 2nd or 3rd) but they dropped that to £20 now so I guessed I'd upset them.

The enhanced treble is done every Saturday & Tuesday mate, definitely worth backing, I now have 8 pairs of brand new unworn trainers out of my proceeds :laugh:

The secret is to not back large amounts of teams, do doubles, trebles or 4 folds & if you must back a lot of teams only put a quid or two on it (my personal advice anyway) as you will very rarely win on big team accas.

Don't it always come down to last minute goals?

If you've got them all winning with 2mins left you know its going to go tits up. it's that 93rd minute goal that puts you in or out!!!

I don't think people understand how 'limiting' works with bookies. If you are limited with a large acca it is to cut the risk of their losses. It's nothing to do with you, it'll be the same with everyone.

 

Limiting is when your account is banned from all promotions and limited to roughly a £3 max bet on shorter odds and lower on longer.

 

For example this is the message 365 send when limiting:

https://gyazo.com/dbb0b102ce52fb35aad9d8f7061fc1d5

 

If I want to place a bet with more than £3 stake I have to phone their trading team... That's how limiting/restricting works. I'd chop a limb of to get £10 accas every weekend on! Back to the exchanges for me...

Ladbrokes have limited me to £1 a bet!! No warning I when I questioned it they said they weren't able to make any money out of me!! Strange that because a) I've hardly ever won anything with them online & b) before things went online I always used Ladbrokes to place my bets by going into my local shop & they never had any issues taking my money then!! Hasten to add, my Ladbrokes account is no more & I wouldn't go into one of their shops if it was the only one left available!!

As for your explanation, how do you explain why I'm allowed to bet £37.50 on one bet while Fordy can only do £25 on the same bet or why I was once allowed to bet £50 on a certain bet but now I'm limited to £20 as I was when I opened my account?

It came in on Tuesday but not last Saturday due to Leeds losing at Wall, came in the Tuesday and Saturday the week before.
