AFL 2017 - AFL Round 14

[Watts4Dinner]

Don't mind the Lions @11. They've had a pretty good fortnight. Apparently a big group of them had the flu this week and they did quite well considering Beams and Rockliff didn't get near it. GWS have more injuries piled on even on their week off. I can't see them missing with a 6-8 goal start at home.

Last week it was there automatically after the conclusion of the round. I would wait until after Origin again this week to see if it's up. If not, bet365 has the same promotion running until the end of July I believe.

Says on the app it's still goin for rd 14

Love the Roos/Dogs game for the 24 lead promo. Seems like the perfect game for it with the stars aligning here for a very decent chance of a North 24 point lead then Dogs win. Underdog at nearly $3 odds who often start well but fade and have blown multiple big leads this year vs the favourite who should win but are the worst ranked 1st quarter team in the league who start terribly but can finish quite strong. Jumping on North with the promo and then betting on dogs elsewhere.

Awesome, that's what I want to hear lol

When they finish, move everything over to bet365!

What is chase the points? Is that the pile up thing? I only just started using crown recently

 

[freo_leo29]

$450 Cats @1.19 SB
$93 Freo@5.75

~$8 loss each way but if either team gets up by 24 and loses then both payout and its a big win.

Works due to the two promos and sportsbets odds being different to most books.

Did the Crownbet points pile up change from crown reward points to bonus bets ?
Ive noticed a 17 dollar bb added to my account.Every other pile up they gave me crownbet reward points

Yeah hassled them about that on the live chat as the promo banner still said reward points. Got cut off 3 times and the 4th guy said WA customers get bonus bets which it doesnt say anywhere. They must be getting smacked about a bit

Has Cats at 1.19 and Freo at 4.75 on sportsbet for me

4-4 as favs

Those statistics are a joke, 2 of those wins the line was less than 3 points (Essendon and St. Kilda, were underdogs on game day both times with some bookies) and in the other one they were 6 goals down vs. Collingwood before pulling a win out of their ass. Scraped home against Carlton too. 2 games they entered effectivly even and the other two they very nearly lost. They're lucky that record isn't 0/6 from 6.

Agreed, have to put context to these "stats". Even deeper you need to look at how well they dominated the game as well. A 16.2 winning performance is not better than a 8.19 losing performance where you absolutely dominated possession.

Anyone wanting to middle there +43.5 Lions line, it's in to +34.5 Palmer/Mad Bookie

Oops - yes points pile up - I just call it chase the points as its the AFL equivalent of chase the ace

Just a heads up, SB 24 point promo only applies to your first bet on the games market (even though the T&C's don't state it). I put some more on North but then noticed it didn't have the promo icon in my pending bets so I asked customer service and they said its only your first bet on each game that counts.

B365 paid out my 2 separate stakes (in the same game) on Saints H2H last week though once they were up 24.

Maybe but when the line opened up the punters did see it as good value.

B365 paid out my 2 separate stakes on Saints H2H last week though once they were up 24.

Made the rookie error of rushing without really thinking and cashing out my extra 5U on Roos for a 0.55U loss. I then realised I probably had a solid case to have the bet cancelled/refunded since the T&C's didn't mention anything about the promo not applying which is what enticed me to place the bet with them in the first place. Spoke to customer service to see if I could be reimbursed for the loss and they said I could have asked for it to be cancelled, but because I already cashed out I was no longer eligible for a cancelation (annoying, but kind of understandable).

So yeah incase anyone else had 2+ bets on the same market and mainly did because of the special, it might be worth asking for the 2nd bet to be cancelled if you mainly did it for the special and don't want it if its not eligible for the promo.
