AFL Round 6

[ManWithNoName]

West Coast
Sydney 1-39

Multi @ $3.98. Chucked $50 on that.

Nice start, now if Sydney can co-operate I'll be off to a very good start to the weekend.

ROUND 6

MARGIN - EAGLES 1-39 (x1.5) LOSS
MARGIN - SWANS 1-39 (x2)
ATS - BOMBERS -65.5 (X1)
ATS - MAGPIES -34.5 (x1.5)

GL all

AFL YTD: 17-13-2 (+9.67 @ 57%)

ADDING

ML - SWANS (x2)

Really hate margin bets..... Found myself hoping Melbourne would start scoring last night when I liked the Eagles from the start. Swans win tonight and hopefully stay under but not taking any chances.

 

[Tonche]

West Coast Win
Sydney
St Kilda +24.5
Essendon -65.5

@ $7.77

 

[2notepockets]

Taken under 174.5 match total tonight 365 obviously stuffed up (again) now into 158.5...

is there a good way to take advantage of this, could obviously take the over and hope it falls in the middle but with rain around that could be shooting myself in the foot???

 

[monfries6]

took this bet earlier in the week:
Sydney -3.5
Essendon -62.5
Collingwood H2H
@ 4.79

You can still get $3.25 for the Demons to have the lowest score for the round with TAB. Looks way over the odds.

Checked Sportsbet and Demons are paying $1.33.

I like it, good find. Might back it up with GCS low score on Sunday.

1.5 units Garlett most goals at $9

hey gents. i don't know if this is widespread practice for all bookmakers..

if i punt on a 2 legged multi:

(i)
A @ 1.83
B @ 1.93

= 3.5898 [lets just say its this, i dont have calculator here]

OR

(ii)
A @ 1.84
B @ 1.94

= 3.5849 [lets just say its this, i dont have calculator here]


I placed a bet similar to (ii) this morning but then realised the payout on their sheet is = 3.58

That means if I play a $10000 wager, I would lose $35849 - $35800 = $49

Do ALL bookmakers round it off to 2 dp? That so unfair!

I was so angry when I saw 3.58 and the payout was exactly that, they did not take 3.5849!


For (i), does that mean bookmakers take 3.59 (assuming they continue their form and take odds to 2dp?)?

 

[sk1001]

firstly (ii) odds must be higher than (i) because 1.84>1.83 and 1.94>1.93.

Melbourne out to 2.10 on sportsbet now, suspect that would just be people laying off on everyone else.

as i said in parentheses, ie [ ]

I do not have a calculator. it was an example.

He is basically asking to what decimal place to bookies round off to for multis. I know b365 does round off to more than 2 decimal places, not sure about others.

 

[gamerm8]

wanted to confirm with someone if bookmakers do round it off to 2dp. cheeky bookmakers...

Even though it appears to be rounded off to 2 decimal places, the actual payout will include the full number (as many dp as required).

 

[Rooster Cogburn]

I think Centrebet pay to 4dp. I'm very surprised that any would round to 2dp?

 

[The_Big_Ship]

Taken Carlton / North / Rich / Saints @ $8.80

 

[Sasuke]

Not a good start last night, Multi is still on but i expected westcoast to win by less. Have put a small bet on Sydney tonight. I think it will be close, i recon 10-20 points but given i missed out purely to margin last night have got head to head.

 

[ManWithNoName]

I managed to get $5 on North for lowest scoring team @ $81 at Sportsbet. Probably won't happen but I can see it being a terrible, scrappy game where football is the loser.

 

[yamahamoto]

Boak is out for Port...Brogan is doubtful....if he is out as well i can see an easy win for North...

 

[Rooster Cogburn]

I took Port with a 40.5 start in a crazy multi, starting to think that won't be near enough

 

[ManWithNoName]

With that news...

Either team under 15.5 (Sydney v Carlton)
Kangaroos
Adelaide
Brisbane

1.5U @ $17.29

 

[The Big Woofer]

Boak is out for Port...Brogan is doubtful....if he is out as well i can see an easy win for North...

Don't be so sure.....Port have far more quality targets up forward than NM who will rely heavily on Petrie & this week he'll have a far more experienced stronger opponent.....I still say Port win this game.

I would be very keen to lay NM if i were a bookmaker at the going odds.

 

[KardiniaPark]

Quality? Westhoff? Motlop?
